The burning question of an animal's last rites
Article Abstract:
Petowners seek personalised alternatives to vets dealing with the corpse of a deceased pet and grief counselling for animal loss. Some householders bury the pet in the garden, but might prefer cremation if available. Dignity is a pet cremation service in Winchfield, Hampshire, England. There is a private pet cemetery in Birmingham and another at Newbury Lodge Pet Cemetery, Andover, Hampshire. A masonry business, Petstones, supplies memorials for animals which provide a focal point and emotional release.

The Meldrew effect
Article Abstract:
Police officers in Shoreham-by-Sea, England, are taking strong action against the petty vandalism and very minor crime which has plagued the quiet seaside town. They are now not willing to tolerate any offence, even the most minor, and have issued many warnings, both to adults and children, about actions such as dropping litter or spitting in the street. This follows research in the US which indicates that targeting all offences, however small, can have a positive impact on major crime.

They've just dug up our hill
Article Abstract:
A Site of Nature Conservation Importance at Royate Hill, Bristol, England was the scene of destruction by bulldozer after planning permission was refused. Similar events occur all over the country when developers claim they are tidying the land. Environmental protection law is aimed too high so ordinary landscapes escape protection. Draft legislation may help by providing power for instant action removing delay when injunctions have to be secured at difficult times.
