A large tree burst a three-inch water main when it toppled over in a Woodland neighborhood early Tuesday morning.

City crews are working to clear the tree and make repairs to the line, which has left five homes without water along Ashley Avenue.

Watch report:Large tree in Woodland crushes water main

The tree's limbs and branches extended into the middle of the roadway, which has been closed off.

When the tree fell overnight and cracked the water pipe, water spewed into the air, forcing utility workers to shut off water to the handful of homes.

Crews said they won't be able to fix the line until the massive pine tree is removed.

"The tree is the big hold up," said Woodland Public Works deputy director Rob Sanders."We cant get to the waterline, the waterline is actually about a foot behind the walk. So its laying right over the water line and thats where it broke."

Crews were called to the location several days earlier when the home owner noticed water boiling up from area near the base of the tree.

"I heard this gurgling and there was water coming out from the base of the tree," said homeowner Robin Bent."I called the city and they came right over. The line was broken and they fixed it."

Bent said she has been keeping a close eye on the tree and was making plans to some day remove the tree.

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- Since July, the city has collected $293,885 for the removal of just 39 trees, according to City Parks Department records.

And in the city's last fiscal year -- from July 1, 2013 to July 1, 2014 -- the agency took in $2.7 million for the removal of 275 trees.

This comes out to about $7,500 to nearly $10,000 per tree. And that doesn't include the actual cost of tree removal -- it's just the fee that has to be paid to the Parks Department.

That cost, Staten Island developers say, is so exorbitant that is hurts development and forces them to pass the cost on to customers.

"The cost is ridiculous. ...A 24-inch tree could have a value of upwards of $60,000. (Parks' formula) is an overly aggressive way of valuing trees," said Robert Kelly, an Island-based developer and broker/owner of Master's Realty in Oakwood.

He contends that the Parks Department's pricingso excessivethat, in some cases, it's prohibiting builders from developing projects in the borough, and hurting homebuyers or commercial real estate customers who have to dig deeper to cover the expense.

A LAWSUIT IS FILED

Last year, the Building Association of New York City filed a lawsuit against the Parks Department, demanding a review of the way the agency calculates a tree's "value." The case has been adjourned several times; the next court date isJan. 30 in Supreme Court, St. George.

Some of the delay can be attributed to the Parks Department change in venue request. The agency wanted the case moved toManhattan.

"We (the Association) felt this should be heard on Staten Island," said Kelly.

The first of two power outages in six Dunedin suburbs is expected from 9am tomorrow.

Delta spokesman Gary Johnson said the power to about 4000 electricity consumers in Abbotsford, Burnside, Concord, Fairfield, Green Island, Ocean View and Waldronville would be interrupted twice tomorrow to enable the safe removal of a fallen tree.

The tree, in a forest between Abbots Hill Rd and the Southern Reservoir, had fallen across high voltage power lines supplying the Green Island substation.

To enable the safe clearance of the tree, the power needed to be redirected from the Green Island substation to near substations.

From 9am tomorrow, some electricity consumers in the suburbs should expect a interruption to their power supply between 30 seconds and 60 seconds to enable the tree removal.

After the removal and the high voltage cable was made safe, there would be a similar interruption to the power supply later in the day.

"Apart from the two brief interruptions, we expect power supply to be on as usual.''

People using medical equipment that relies on electricity should ensure they were prepared for the power interruptions and if there was an immediate health threat to contact their health provider or call 111.

Year 10 pupils from two Coventry schools tested their design skills by building replica biomass-fired power stations.

The Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) challenge days introduced pupils at Bishop Ullathorne Catholic School and Tile Hill Wood School and Language College to the sorts of skills required to work in the energy sector, while completing a series of tasks to design and build parts of a model power station.

The event was organised by E.ON as part of the energy companys interactive Energy Experience education programme.

Pupils were encouraged to think like engineers and work within teams as they undertook challenges throughout separate days at each school.

Working to a strict budget and deadline, tasks included designing a silo for storing the biomass fuel and constructing a flue tower.

Jackie Dines, science teacher at Bishop Ullathorne Catholic School, said: We appreciate being able to offer our pupils alternative ways to learn, and E.ONs STEM workshop covered the topic of biomass and power stations in a really interactive fashion.

Billie Poole, senior community relations officer at E.ON, said: Since it isnt always possible to take a year group into one of our power stations, we developed the STEM workshop instead.

It forms part of E.ONs Energy Experience educational programme and has been designed to support the National Science Curriculum, with practical elements intended to enable young people to learn about energy in a hands-on and fun way.

A sprinkler system in the new YMCA caused "extensive" damage and closed the East Side facility early Tuesday morning.

Around 4:45 a.m., the steam room inside the YMCA's spa areaoverheated, said YMCA CEO Mark Cartledge. When the steam room's door was opened, the heat triggered a sprinkler to activate in the spa area.

Our raft system with its simple common sense approach offers you an excellent alternative to the more tradition concrete or slab base. This method allows more air flow, also much less water is in contact with the floor bearers keeping the building dry, which makes your investment last longer. No foundation needs to be dug, or concrete to set, means we can finish laying the raft and erecting your building the same day. Not only does this simple system saves you money and is kinder to the environment, it is easy to reposition if you need to relocate you building, saving you breaking up the old concrete and disposing it.

To install a raft we ask of you is to ensure the area is leveled out for us prior to us arriving, we will place slabs at pressure points to prevent subsidence and bring the area to a level, a raft is then placed on top, ready for the shed to be built, simple. Example shown below.

LinkedIn is hoping that it can attract blue collar workers like carpenters, electricians, delivery drivers, waiters and joiners.

After a few years out of the workforce to care for his youngest son, Klaus Thorsen spruced up his LinkedIn profile. Not that unusual, you may think. After all, the careers networking site has more than 330m registered users.

Except that Mr Thorsen is a north London carpenter hoping to find contacts and employment on a site where job titles such as builder are more typically used to describe someone who creates online communities than a construction worker.

Mr Thorsen admits he would never have joined LinkedIn if it were not for his partner, Karen Fugle, an executive coach to architects. If youre not in the corporate world its a big step, [it's] baffling, she says. That is not to say Mr Thorsen does not use technology; he is an enthusiastic Twitter user, deploying it to keep up with industry news and finds work through referrals from local websites such as Streetlife. com, a neighbourhood social network.

If LinkedIn has its way, however, more people like Mr Thorsen will become members of the site without nudges from executive coaches and expand the numbers beyond the throngs of accountants, lawyers and marketers already signed up, to include delivery drivers, waiters and joiners.

Allen Blue, co-founder of LinkedIn, wants the site to shed its elitist image as an exclusive club for knowledge workers. LinkedIn last year bought Bright, a US job site that uses a scoring mechanism to match job hunters with employers. The acquisition brought jobs to the site from sectors beyond LinkedIns traditional white-collar heartland.

Now if you do a job search, there are lots of possibilities, says Mr Blue. Theres a growing number of blue-collar workers on the site.

The company certainly talks big. There are billions of workers in the world, says Mr Blue, and LinkedIn has ambitions to sign up every single one of them. We consider all of these [AS]people we can deliver value to, says Mr Blue. Moreover, data compiled from LinkedIn members profiles could, for example, help employers plan where to build a factory or distribution centre based on the local labour forces skills, he argues.

LinkedIn hopes to create the worlds first economic graph, its version of Facebooks social graph, coined to describe its networks of friends. As Jeff Weiner, the chief executive, has explained: We want to digitally map the global economy, identifying the connections between people, jobs, skills, companies and professional knowledge and spot in real-time the trends pointing to economic opportunities.

While LinkedIn is, in Mr Blues words, professionally paranoid about Facebooks plans to create a professional networking channel, called Facebook at Work, he believes users prefer to keep personal and work lives separate.
