Industrial chicken sheds given ok despite Bush Bank fears over smell
2:02pm Thursday 15th May 2014 in News
SHEDS for 240,000 chickens were granted planning permission near Bush Bank despite concerns over a particularly unpleasant odour.
The Herefordshire Council planning committee passed the project which will see potato farm Garnstone Farms switch some of its operation to chickens by 12 votes to two.
Councillor Liz Chave said: If youre not into on farmyard smells, dont live in the countryside.
It was, added local representative Adrian Blackshaw, a case of supporting the countys agricultural industry.
While chicken waste was said to create a unique odour, planning regulations take into account those affected within 400m metres.
The only property within that distance is lived in by an employee of the farm, with the next nearest house 800m from the proposed sheds.
However the application drew signification opposition from the local community recording more than 60 objections.
One representation from the parish council claimed rare newts in area enjoyed better protection from planning than local residents.

Industrial chicken sheds given ok despite Bush Bank fears over smell
She was young, no more than 16, and feeling her way through a dark cave, perhaps lured by the quest for water in a land with no surface rivers or streams.
One can imagine her terror as the cave suddenly opened into a yawning chasm, with a sheer drop to a shallow pool far below. A step too far took her over the unseen edge. In pitch blackness she fell as much as 30 metres about eight storeys. The echoes of her scream and the sound of her body as it hit bottom would have echoed off the limestone walls for a few moments. Then eons of silence.

After more than 12,000 years, the girl scientists call Naia has returned from the underworld. Her bones, long preserved in their watery tomb in Mexicos Yucatan peninsula, offer a direct link to a mysterious past. And now her DNA is helping to answer one of the most enduring questions in prehistory: Who were the first people to populate the new world?
The newly emerging answer amounts to a convergence of theories. It suggests people reached North America earlier that once thought, and that those same people are also the ancestors of living native Americans.
This is a bonanza find, said Eduard Reinhardt, a micropaleontologist at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario. The quality of the data that were getting is exceptional.
An experienced diver, Dr. Reinhardt is one of the scientists directly involved in examining the site where the Naia skeleton was first discovered in 2007. After many millennia, the change in sea level since the end of the last ice age has put the floor of the vast chamber under 40 metres of water. Researchers in scuba gear must swim through the passage where Naia took her final steps, and glide over the precipice where she plunged to her death into what has been named Hoyo Negro, or black hole.
The bottom drops out as you get into that big cavern, Dr. Reinhardt said. Its like a cathedral. Your light just dances off the walls.
The scientific payoff has been equally impressive.
Naias skull is intact and well preserved, which reveals what she looked like when she was alive. At the same time she has yielded her mitochondrial DNA a form of DNA that is inherited only along the maternal line which scientists successfully extracted from one of her teeth.

Grim discovery sheds new light on when humans came to the Americas

U.S. oil prices fell Thursday in tandem with the stock market, as weak U.S. and global economic signals combined with near-record crude stockpiles to weigh on prices.
Light, sweet crude for June delivery fell 87 cents, or 0.8%, to close at $101.50 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange, snapping a three-session winning streak that led to a three-week high a day earlier.
Oil prices have been rising on a combination of worries about supply disruptions as a result of tensions between Russia and Ukraine, and the potential of a reversal in U.S. policy that would allow crude exports. But Thursday's session offered little in the way of fundamental drivers that could sustain the rally.
The front-month June contract for Brent crude expired Thursday, rising 25 cents, or 0.2%, to $110.44 a barrel on the ICE Futures Europe exchange. Analysts said the gain was attributable to traders closing out bets that the contract would fall, by buying futures to cover their positions. Most of the volume in the Brent market has rolled forward into next month's contract, which settled down 22 cents, or 0.2%, at $109.09 a barrel.
On Thursday, the International Energy Agency raised its forecast of global oil demand for 2014 by 65,000 barrels a day, citing stronger consumption in the U.S. and upward revisions in Japan, Germany and the U.K. The agency now expects global oil demand to average 92.8 million barrels a day this year.
While the IEA forecast was a positive signal, other factors pressured oil prices lower. U.S. data released Wednesday showed overall crude domestic stocks rose to 398.5 million barrels, near all-time highs according to U.S. Energy Information Administration data going back to 1982, when analysts had been expecting no increase.
Economic data were also weak. First-quarter economic growth in the euro zone was reported at 0.2% on Thursday, below analyst expectations of 0.4%, sending a negative signal for oil demand. "People were expecting a bigger number," said Bill Baruch, senior market strategist at wholesale brokerage II Trader in Chicago.
In the U.S., a Federal Reserve reading on industrial production was weaker than expected and home builder confidence fell to its lowest level in a year, drowning out better-than-expected readings on initial jobless claims. And earnings for Wal-Mart Stores, often looked to as a barometer of U.S. economic activity, came in lower than expected, with revenue declining for the fifth consecutive quarter, dragging down stock indexes. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 1% in late trade Thursday.

DIXON Four trailers and three sheds in a mostly vacant mobile home park in the west end of Dixon are being targeted by the city for removal.
Dixon building official Paul Shiaras said last week that at least two of the trailers are not in a livable condition, so the owner, Kenneth Garrison, will have to remove them or make the case that theyre livable, which would require a city inspection.
The lot is on Clark Street, between Custer and Sheridan avenues.
Despite repeated efforts, Garrison could not be reached for comment.
Donna Rendleman, 77, has lived near the mobile home lot for more than 20 years, she said from her dining room last week, and the park has been deteriorating and an eyesore for a while.
While she understands residents might be doing the best they can to maintain the property, there are safety risks, she said, and she has seen animals go into the trailers.
You shouldnt have to report people, she said. The city should take care of it. Everybody knows it [is like that].
Rendleman believes the city has neglected the west end of Dixon, instead focusing on the downtown riverfront.
There are no building violations against Garrison or the property, Shiaras said, but the city has been trying to remove the older trailers from the property as theyve become vacant.
Because of the way the property is zoned, Shiaras said, it pre-dates city zoning, so the property falls into a gray area as to whether Garrison could add trailers to the lot. Shiaras said he would fight it if Garrison wanted to and it would then become a legal issue.

Peninsula Art League painters work on pieces that use Gig Harbors historic net sheds as the subject. The pieces are now on display at the Civic Center as part of a show.

Gig Harbors net sheds can be seen from Harborview Drive and from the water. Now, theres a new way to see the historic structures: Through an artists eyes.
The Peninsula Art League and the city of Gig Harbor are hosting an exhibit centered on the historic net sheds along the water.
In total, the show boasts 58 pieces by 24 different artists, all with the same topic: Gig Harbors historic net sheds. Mediums encompass more than painting and expand to other disciplines such as printmaking. The show is on display in the hallways and lobby of the Civic Center, 3510 Grandview St. Hours are 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday to Friday until June 16. It is free to attend.
The most prominent net shed in town is the blue-and-red structure jutting out from Skansie Brothers Park. In total, Gig Harbor is home to 17 net sheds, the largest inventory of the structures in Puget Sound.
It was kind of fun having a focus that maybe results in a show, Anne Knapp, a co-chairwoman of the project, said.
Its been a year of work from the Peninsula Art League. Co-chairwomen Knapp and Feather Hilger say that painting a piece of Gig Harbors storied past brought the group more in touch with the city.
Its a simple structure in a beautiful place, Knapp said.
Many times people walk or boat right past the net sheds. To really sit down and study one changed Hilgers view. Knapp calls painting intense observation, which requires intimate knowledge of a view or model.

ALLOTMENT holders have called for tighter security after their sheds and greenhouses were destroyed by vandals.
Glass panels were smashed on a greenhouse, while sheds had their doors torn off and one was pushed on its side on Saturdaynight.
Gardeners discovered the damage at Elder Stubbs Allotment, East Oxford, on Sunday morning.
Thames Valley Police is now investigating the matter.
David Webster, 62, whose greenhouse was ruined, said: Its just vandalism.
It would cost a few hundred quid to replace the greenhouse but its about our time.
This is our relaxation. Its peaceful there and theres a little community.
If I met these vandals I would lose my temper. Wed make them clean it up.
