THOUSAND OAKS, CA & WATERLOO, ON, Canada -- (BUSINESS WIRE)--Teledyne Technologies Inc. (NYSE: TDY) ("Teledyne") and DALSA Corp. (TSX: DSA) ("DALSA") jointly announced today that they have entered into a definitive agreement that provides for the acquisition of DALSA Corp. by a wholly-owned subsidiary of Teledyne. Pursuant to the transaction, Teledyne will acquire all of the outstanding common shares of DALSA for CAD $18.25 per share payable in cash. The aggregate value for the transaction is approximately CAD $341 million, taking into account DALSA's stock options and net cash as of September 30, 2010.
Headquartered in Waterloo, Ontario, DALSA is an international leader in high performance digital imaging and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) with approximately 1,000 employees worldwide. Established in 1980, DALSA designs, develops, manufactures and markets digital imaging products and solutions, in addition to manufacturing custom MEMS products. DALSA's imaging products and services include high-resolution, high-performance CCD and CMOS imaging sensors, electronic digital cameras and image processing software for use in industrial machine vision, advanced medical imaging and high resolution aerial and satellite imagery. For the twelve months ended September 30, 2010, DALSA had sales of approximately CAD $201 million.
"Teledyne and DALSA are each acknowledged leaders in digital imaging technology but our product lines and customer bases are almost entirely complementary. For example, DALSA produces among the world's most advanced visible light imaging sensors and cameras for commercial applications, while Teledyne produces extreme resolution infrared sensors and subsystems primarily for government applications," said Dr. Robert Mehrabian, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Teledyne. "The combined strengths of Teledyne's and DALSA's leading imaging technologies will allow us to develop new infrared and visible light products that serve our respective markets and customers. Furthermore, DALSA's custom MEMS capabilities will be augmented by having access to Teledyne's extensive MEMS research activities and advanced process technologies.
"With the acquisition of DALSA, Teledyne is making a substantial commitment to Canada. We are especially attracted to strong support for research and development and advancement of technology provided by both the Canadian Federal and Provincial Governments of Ontario and Quebec. Finally, following the acquisition of DALSA, and the previously announced divestiture of Teledyne Continental Motors, Teledyne will be transformed into a pure-play electronics, instrumentation and engineering focused company."
"I view this transaction as a natural evolution for DALSA and a positive development for all DALSA stakeholders including shareholders, employees, executives, local communities, customers and vendors," commented Dr. Savvas Chamberlain, Chairman of the Board and Founder of DALSA. "The decision to be a part of a larger organization recognizes that in order for DALSA to become a billion dollar company, we need to team up with an industry leader with complementary technologies. Finally, as the founder of the company, I am pleased to see DALSA's name live on, in its new incarnation as Teledyne DALSA."
"Being part of the Teledyne team will provide many opportunities for accelerated growth for DALSA," said Brian Doody, Chief Executive Officer of DALSA. "I am looking forward to working with my existing management and executive team, along with the Teledyne team, as we move forward together in the next stage of the company's development. As envisioned in the agreement with Teledyne, our principal operations will continue to function in their existing locations. Moreover, Teledyne expects to continue to invest in our technology and business."
Additional Information About the Transaction
The purchase price payable by Teledyne of CAD $18.25 per common share represents a premium of 27.7% over the twenty-day volume weighted average trading price of CAD $14.29 for DALSA common shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange for the period ending December 21, 2010. Holders of approximately 6.4 million DALSA common shares, representing approximately 34.7% of DALSA's outstanding common shares, have entered into support agreements with Teledyne pursuant to which they have agreed to support and vote in favor of the transaction.
The transaction will be carried out by way of a statutory plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario). The completion of the transaction is subject to, among other things, the approval of shareholders of DALSA representing at least two-thirds of the common shares of DALSA represented at a special meeting of shareholders of DALSA to be called to consider the transaction and Court approval. In addition, the transaction is subject to a number of additional closing conditions, including receipt of required regulatory approvals, as well as other customary closing conditions.
The transaction has been reviewed by a Special Committee of the Board of Directors of DALSA and has been unanimously approved by the Board of Directors of DALSA following the unanimous recommendation of the Special Committee. The Board of Directors of DALSA unanimously recommends that the shareholders of DALSA vote in favor of the transaction. Canaccord Genuity Corp acted as financial advisor to DALSA, and the Special Committee and the Board of Directors have received an opinion from Canaccord Genuity that the consideration offered under the transaction is fair, from a financial point of view, to DALSA's shareholders.
The definitive agreement contains a termination fee in the amount of approximately CAD $10.2 million, which is payable by DALSA to Teledyne in certain circumstances if the transaction is not completed. The definitive agreement provides that DALSA will call and hold a special meeting of the DALSA shareholders for the purposes of considering the transaction. If all necessary approvals are obtained and the conditions contained in the definitive agreement are satisfied, DALSA and Teledyne expect that the transaction will close in February 2011.
DALSA anticipates declaring a quarterly dividend, consistent with previous practices, prior to the closing date.
Full details of the arrangement and certain other matters will be included in the management information circular of DALSA (the "Information Circular") which will be filed with the regulatory authorities and mailed to DALSA shareholders in accordance with applicable securities laws. Shareholders may obtain a copy of the definitive agreement, Information Circular of DALSA, and other meeting materials when they become available at www.sedar.com.

Some friends invited us to spend the day at Lyons Farms for their little boys Birthday. We were already planning on going and excited we could go with them.
I love pumpkin farms. You can't have Fall with out a visit to the pumpkin farm... it kind of completes the deal. Next year, I think we are going to have to make more than one trip. Fall this year was/has been so beautiful and the perfect weather. Just this week it has started to get a bit cold outside. I finally noticed today the leaves falling off of my tree.
Back to the pumpkin farm... I have to mention our great parenting moment. My Zenock and Kamden were standing in line for the slide and I was over talking with some other parents next to JC... watching them stand in line. I looked away for two seconds and when I looked back Kamden wasn't holding Zenock's hand. I walked over to Zenock and asked him where he was wondering if maybe he had gone up the slide already. He said he ran over to the pumpkin bounce house. I walked over there and Kamden wasn't anywhere in sight. SO... this is a pretty big pumpkin farm and it was a Saturday afternoon which meant it was JAM PACKED. I kind of started to freak out. My kids have walked off before and I've always been really calm about it, but not quite this time. I ran to ask JC to help me look for him and we started running all over the place. What felt like 15 minutes later (probably more like 5), I hear this Mom behind me say something like, "You think they were over here..." I turn around and she is holding my Kamden who is sobbing. Apparently, he had run clear to the front entrance yelling for us, saying he couldn't find his Mom and Dad. I have no idea why or why he let go of Zenock's hand. I am just so glad it was a sweet/kind lady who found him. She said as soon as she saw him she grabbed him just because she didn't want him to be grabbed by the wrong person. I could have - should have hugged the women!
The rest of our day was pretty uneventful, but lots of fun. Moral of the day... Don't trust six year olds. :) Love them, just don't trust them.
Kamden's face makes me laugh every time. Also, I think I love having a baby just so I can have an excuse to go down this huge slide... it is really fun. :) Unfortunately, my Nolan hated it... every time we made him go down. I've come to the conclusion I must really like his sad face... I am always taking pictures of him mad or sad. He really is a very happy sweet boy.
The pig races are our favorite way to end the day. Zenock with Uncle "Hambone" and a baby piggy after the races.

Adam Clark's Biography
I am ACL Pro Adam Clark from the Carolina Conference and this is my story of how and when I started playing cornhole and worked my way up to an ACL Pro. My dad introduced me to the game about 10 years ago and it all started just for fun. I'm such a competitive person that I started to put a lot of time into the game and learn how to play no matter the competition. Once I was able to win local tourneys I started hearing about a professional league about 2 hours away and I started traveling to those to find out I wasn't as good as I thought. From there I elevated my game to the highest level and that's why I have this opportunity to play in the ACL Pro Division against the best in the world!

Emily spoke with me about her experience as a chemical engineer in the Cannabis industry and how failures make us successful. Tarukino represents several products in the Cannabis industry, such as the water-soluble THC and CBD that Skrobecki is working to develop. Some companies you may recognize that use the technology are Happy Apple, Pearl20, Utopia Sparkling Water and my personal favorite—Velvet Swing. New products are also in development, such as Reeb, which is a barley soda that is made with hops and is another exciting new project that Skrobecki's work and the team at Tarukino has contributed to.
With beakers of varying size in the brightly lit workspace, Skrobecki gave the grand tour, which included a look at her equipment and workstation, where machines and technology were covered in white cloths to protect their intellectual property. She gave me a first-hand look at the water solubility of Cannabis, a project she is excited to be working on because not many people understand the chemistry. The challenge of the unknown is what drives Skrobecki to search for knowledge and dive deep into this type of science.
In her undergrad at Oregon State University, Skrobecki worked with botanical extraction, steam distillation and alcohol extraction as well. She graduated in 2015 with a degree in chemical engineering and a minor in biochemical processes. Additionally, She was a research and development chemical engineer for an edibles company, where she helped them with their internal quality assessment. Then she was a chemist for an analytical lab before she finally ended up as the manager of process engineering for Tarukino.
As a woman in science, and more specifically, Cannabis science, Skrobecki laughed when I asked her if there were lots of other women working in similar careers. She told me that she has yet to meet another wom-an who is a chemical engineer in the Cannabis industry. She explained that she is a lover of all things plants. She was inspired by another wom-an she knew who was work-ing in botanical extractions. Coincidentally, she imagined herself maybe someday doing hop extraction for beer makers but eventually found herself falling in love with hops' cous-in, Cannabis. Her personal relationship to the plant goes beyond recreational consumption, and she describes to me the creations she's experimented with at home. Skrobecki says that the essential oils found in Cannabis always intrigued her, which led her to formulate her own "bedtime aroma" of oils to diffuse at nighttime. Although she recognizes that science is typically male-dominated, she seems relieved to say that this is all changing. She notes that she doesn't see the Cannabis industry as male-dominated.
"There are two different types of people on this planet," she said. "We all have our own different traits, any human has any other type of ability. If you're creative, you can come up with an awesome design. For someone who's more analytical, they'll be really good at perfecting that system." Skrobecki recalls working with so many great men who appreciate women and their abilities, and who are excited to see women entering scientific fields because they see the benefits of working together. The only misconcep-tion men have had about Skrobecki's ability is that some men can underes-timate her physical strength. She jokes that they assume she will break a nail while trying to un-wrench a part of the machinery. Some of them may want to realize that she could "probably beat them in an arm wrestle." Skrobecki said lab safety is among the biggest chal-lenges she has faced while working in the legal Cannabis world. "I don't think [lab safety] is taken very seriously. There are people work-ing with high temp and high-pressure systems. And they don't know what to do if something goes wrong," she said.
"If there's an acidic spill, not everyone is very conscious on how to clean up the spill." Skrobecki believes there aren't many companies practicing safe methods as well as they should. She shares with me her gratitude for her team at Tarukino, who values safety as their number one priority by empowering their employees through up to date safety training. I asked Skrobecki if she thought the safety issues in the lab were due to a lack of professional schooling and training. "The internet is a glorious place these days," she said.
There is a multitude of resources available online, such as on OSHA's website, to teach your staff and yourself about safe lab practices. I asked Skrobecki to think back on her school-age days of the science fair and beyond, and to share with me what advice she would give her younger self. "Never stop networking," she said. "Go outside your comfort zone, even if you show up to an event and don't talk to anyone." She advises her peers and others looking to advance their careers in STEM and Cannabis to keep pushing.
"Fail as many times as you can because that is your biggest learning experience," she said. Modern science is facilitating change in the Cannabis industry at lightning speed. Terpene extraction, steam distil-lation, genetic sequencing – they seem like new technology, but scientists have been using these methods and tools for years in different applications. I'm amazed at all the different ways this technology has been applied to Cannabis, and I'm convinced that the world of science would benefit greatly if more women became involved in it.

One-third of Canadians fear bankruptcy ahead of expected interest rate hike
It's widely expected that the Bank of Canada will raise its benchmark interest rate Wednesday to 1.75 per cent from 1.5 per cent. The bank has already raised that key rate four times since the summer of 2017.
One in three respondents to a new Ipsos survey conducted on behalf of insolvency trustees MNP said they are concerned that higher interest rates could force them toward bankruptcy. That was up about six per cent over a similar survey in June. Higher interest rates are already pinching the budgets of about 45 per cent of respondents and 52 per cent say they are concerned about meeting their debt payments.

The Southampton Free Library wants kids to think for themselves.
That's a theme running through a few of the upcoming kids' activities the library has over the next few months.
"They're open-ended and geared toward self-discovery," explained Heather Soltroff, youth services librarian at Southampton. "The children learn through doing."
Through grants from the Institute for Museum and Library Services as administered by the Pennsylvania Department of Education through the Office of Commonwealth Libraries, the library is hosting a "block party" starting Jan. 28 and continuing the first Monday and third Thursday of each month from February through May.
In each hourlong program, children ages 2 and up are given building blocks and toys including vehicles, people and buildings. They're encouraged to build something they imagine, then build upon it at subsequent meetings.
"It's an open space that allows them to experiment and bond with other children and adults," said Soltroff. "That's very important for this age group."
A similar grant also funds the Leap Into Science: Air Is Everywhere event, also on Feb. 18. A fixture in Philadelphia libraries for a few years, Leap is coming to Bucks for the first time next month.
In this program, children can try out different experiments and create structures that teach how air is all around them, and how air pressure and wind can move objects.
"It's really geared toward experimentation. They'll go to different stations and discover things on their own," explained Soltroff.
The library is also bringing back Reading Goes to the Dogs with Nor'Wester Readers. Here, anyone can read books to therapy dogs. It's a practice especially beneficial to children learning to read or people with learning disabilities.
Reading to the dogs increases relaxation, as they listen attentively, don't judge or criticize and allow readers to move at their own pace.
New this year is Valentines for Vets, a program Soltroff discovered when the Bensalem Public Library launched it last year.
From Jan. 17 to Feb. 2, the library will provide supplies for people to make their own Valentine's Day cards that will then be delivered to military veterans through the Bucks County Veterans Center in Bristol.
"It's a good way for people to give back to the community that all ages can participate in," said Soltroff. ••
If you go:
The Southampton Free Library, 947 Street Road in Southampton, will host the following free events:
Valentines for Vets. Tuesday, Jan. 17 to Feb. 2, during regular library hours
Block Party. Saturday, Jan 28, from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m., then each first Monday from 1 to 2 p.m. and third Thursday from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. through May.
Leap into Science. Saturday, Feb. 18, from 2 to 3 p.m.
Reading Goes to the Dogs. Saturday, Feb. 18, from 11 a.m. to noon.
For information, call 215.322.1415 or visit southamptonfreelibrary.org.

WARREN, Ohio (WKBN) – All American Cards and Comics celebrated Free Comic Book Day at both of its locations on Saturday.
Owner Greg Bartholomew says nearly 100 people were in line waiting to get inside the store in Warren.
The annual promotional day has been around for 18 years. It's an effort by the industry to bring new readers into independent comic book stores.
"If somebody isn't into the comic book hobby and wanted to check something out, then they could come in, pick up a few free comic books, check out what the store is like and, you know, see all the people," Bartholomew says.
He says more and more people come out for the promotion every year.

Can a Prenuptial Agreement Executed Before January 1, 2019 Preserve Deductibility of Alimony Payments Relating to Divorce Decrees Entered After That Date?
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 ("TCJA") did away with the long-standing provision allowing for deductions of alimony payments by the payor. Specifically, the TCJA adopted the prior definition of "alimony and separate maintenance payment" under the Internal Revenue Code but eliminated deductibility for any "divorce or separation instrument" executed after December 31, 2018. This change grandfathered the tax treatment for alimony agreements prior to 2019. As a consequence, the economic considerations relating to divorce, alimony, and disposition of marital property has changed dramatically. Furthermore, it is not likely that prenuptial agreements executed prior to 2019, but relating to divorces finalized in 2019 or later, will preserve these deductions.
The changes implemented by the TCJA, at least with respect to alimony, did not take effect for more than one year after its passage. This provided time to the IRS, practitioners, and potentially affected taxpayers to react to the changes. Still, some taxpayers and their advisors were not aware of these changes or, for a host of other reasons, were not able to address previously executed prenuptial agreements. Many of these agreements contained provisions relating to alimony and were negotiated on the premise that alimony payment had been, and would always be, deductible to the payor. Unfortunately, these agreements, at least with respect to the tax treatment of alimony, are likely no longer controlling.
Agreements between two private parties generally will not bind the Internal Revenue Service as to the tax treatment of transactions. This is particularly true when the tax result called for by such an agreement is not permitted under the tax laws. For this reason, even though prenuptial agreements may bind a party to pay alimony, it may not define the Internal Revenue Service's treatment of that item. (The change regarding the deductibility of alimony potentially calls into question the enforceability of certain prenuptial agreements; however, that analysis is beyond the scope of this article.)
But will prenuptial agreements providing for alimony and executed before 2019 be grandfathered under the prior treatment? The answer depends on whether a prenuptial agreement can be considered a "divorce or separation instrument." While there is no precedent for dealing with this type of situation in this context (as the timing of the agreement and whether the prenuptial agreement was a divorce instrument or was merely incorporated into a divorce instrument was largely irrelevant under prior tax law), a strict interpretation of this language likely dictates that prenuptial agreements should not be grandfathered. In particular, "divorce or separation instrument" under I.R.C. § 71(b)(2) means: (1) a decree of divorce or separate maintenance or a written instrument incident to such a decree, (2) a written separation agreement, or (3) a decree requiring a spouse to make payments for the support or maintenance of the other spouse. Prenuptial agreements do not appear to fall within this definition as each category requires a separation or divorce to be effective.
Still, some practitioners have argued that a prenuptial agreement is potentially "incident" to a divorce decree and could grandfather desired deductions for alimony payments. They point to Treas. Reg. § 1.71-1(b)(6), Ex. 2 as support for grandfathering prenuptial agreements dealing with alimony. That example provides:
If, however, the [divorce] decree were modified so as to refer to the antenuptial agreement, or if reference had been made to the antenuptial agreement in the court's decree or in a written instrument incident to the divorce status, section 71(a)(1) would require the inclusion in [the payee's] gross income of the payments received by her after the decree.
While this example references prenuptial agreements, it does not refer to a prenuptial agreement as an instrument incident to divorce. Further, as the normal definition of "incident" is to result from or be a consequence of something, the chance for success of this argument may prove difficult. Specifically, how can a prenuptial agreement be considered incident to a divorce decree if there is no certainty that any divorce will ever occur (until after the tax treatment changed)? While untested, it appears that this language was intended to capture documents that were executed to implement a decision of a court (where such was not explicit in the decree itself). Furthermore, from the standpoint of equity and administration, there is little to justify disparate tax treatment between those who do and do not execute in basic tax planning. For instance, why should a taxpayer be able to preserve such treatment for a divorce that may never occur, or may not occur until 2050? This seems not only unfair but counter to the underlying purpose of the statute.
In sum, there seems to be little reason for the Internal Revenue Service or the courts to interpret the TCJA as allowing prenuptial agreements to circumvent the change to the tax laws and to preserve deductibility of alimony payments. Those taxpayers with prenuptial agreements who were either unaware of the changes to the alimony provisions, or were unable to negotiate changes, should consult with a tax advisor. In light of the elimination of a significant tax planning mechanism, other tax planning opportunities should be explored. Rosenberg Martin Greenberg, LLP is experienced in all aspects of federal and state tax laws, including tax planning for divorce, audits of divorced spouses and payments related to divorce, addressing prior compliance issues, white collar criminal litigation, and more.

2018 Great Britain 2 Pound 1-oz Silver Britannia NGC MS69DPL First Day of Production
Continuing a Tradition That Celebrates British Pride
"Rule Britannia! Britannia rules the waves: Britons will never be slaves," are the best-known lines from a poem that was set to music in 1740. The song captures the essence of British pride, combining the strength of the nation with its pride in upholding the rights of its people. Nearly 300 years later, Great Britain continues to uphold those values with a strong military and a commitment to keeping her people free. The term "Britannia" may apply to the country or, as in the case of the coin, an allegorical figure that stands in her place. That figure stands in a gale force wind on the reverse of the coin with a shield and a trident, symbols of defense and power, respectively. That makes the coin perfect not only for those who have an affinity toward Britain but also those who share the values for which she stands.
- THE LATEST IN THE "BRITANNIA" SERIES – This coin is the twenty-second issue in a series that began in 1997, ten years after its gold counterpart. The reverse design has changed over time, but this edition is among several to bear Philip Nathan's original 1987 design.
- 99.9% FINE SILVER -- When the Silver Britannia coin was first issued, it was minted from 95.8% fine silver. In 2013, that changed to 99.9% fine, the standard that continues to be used today.
- BRITISH LEGAL TENDER -- Each 2018 Silver Britannia coin is £2 legal tender in Great Britain.
- CERTIFIED NEARLY FLAWLESS -- Your coin will be graded Mint State-69 (MS69) by Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC), a distinction that means your almost-flawless coin will showcase an impressive full strike and indistinguishable imperfections -- well above and beyond the quality of the vast majority of coins in the series.
- FIRST DAY OF PRODUCTION -- NGC also certified that these coins came from the First Day of Production (FDP). Coins must go through an exclusive submission process to earn such certification.
Europe has a turbulent history that continues to the present. Wars, plagues, invasions, and, most recently, terrorism have contributed to a climate of uncertainty and fear. While borders have frequently changed, despots come and gone, and cultures clashed, conquered, and disappeared, for much of the past millennia, Britain has been a stalwart of stability, not only in terms of defending her shores but also leading the way in terms of upholding the rights of her people, a concept that carried over to the United States, which with Britain, has promoted the same throughout the world. The Britannia coin in general and Philip Nathan's design in particular capture that stability and offer collectors just a small symbol of it even during challenging times. Don't miss your chance to own this remarkable coin; order now at GovMint.com.

text: I've written a lot about Ant and Alibaba, but not so much Tencent, even though QQ social networking in China was a hot, hot topic a few years ago. It was the first social platform to launch its own currency and, with 300 million users, was quite interesting. Things have moved at a pace and ferreting around the internet this morning, I found this fascinating presentation by Matthew Brennan (you can get a PDF by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com). I would write a lot more, but the slides tell their own story so I'm posting them here. Take note specifically of section 3, which compares WeChat Pay to AliPay.

StoryToys Announces Leonardo's Cat, a Contraption-Packed Puzzle Game Featuring the Voice of Patrick Stewart as Leonardo da Vinci
DUBLIN – Oct. 26, 2015 – StoryToys, a leading publisher of kids' games, books, and educational software for tablets and phones, has announced Leonardo's Cat, a brain-teasing puzzle game coming soon to iOS devices. This original title, developed by Savage Studios, reimagines the life of historic thinker and artist Leonardo da Vinci in a lighthearted adventure that draws from his historic works and the rich world of the Renaissance. It features the voice of legendary actor Sir Patrick Stewart (Star Trek, X-Men film series), as well as writing by Bob Tedeschi (The New York Times) and the design talents of award-winning creator and illustrator Michael Frith (The Muppets, Fraggle Rock).
"At StoryToys, we're focused on finding the right balance between narrative and play in a way that children and families can enjoy," said Barry O'Neill, CEO of StoryToys. "Leonardo da Vinci is essential to our knowledge of art and the Renaissance, and it has truly been a joy to work with Michael Frith and Patrick Stewart to bring Leonardo to life as a curious, mischievous character."
In Leonardo's Cat, Leonardo's latest invention, the Automaton, has been stolen by his devious archrival, Michelangelo. It's up to Scungilli, da Vinci's faithful feline companion, to search the ancient town of Amboise for the Automaton, braving ominous obstacles and terrifying traps as he goes. Players must use their wits and an arsenal of da Vinci's most cunning inventions to solve the complex challenges of each level and collect the stray parts of the world's first robot. That journey comes to life even further with playful artwork, humorous storytelling, and a wonderfully detailed and atmospheric world inspired by 16th-century France.
- 60 unique puzzle levels across six environments crammed with exploding, crashing, splashing fun!
- Beautifully animated cutscenes featuring Patrick Stewart as the voice of Leonardo da Vinci.
- Lush visuals and a captivating soundtrack inspired by the Renaissance world.
- Incredible inventions, including cannons, catapults and ornithopters!
- Fascinating educational content based on the science, art and other wonders of the Renaissance.
Leonardo Cat's will be available soon on the App Store for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch for $2.99 / €2.99 / £1.99. For more information, please visit leonardoscat.com, and follow along on Facebook and Twitter.

Cygnets Art School Twickenham
Next ArticleThe Fallow Deer
Cygnets Art School Twickenham's new term starts w/c 13th January, with classes taking place on the inspirational Eel Pie Island for children aged 5-11yrs on Fridays & Saturdays, 9+yrs on Thursdays and 13+yrs on Saturdays. Classes are of the highest standard, run by experienced artists and using professional quality materials, making them a brilliant choice for the Spring term – you can book now on their website.
Cygnets Art School Twickenham is a children's art school based on the unique historic Eel Pie Island. The school offers a range of term-time and holiday art classes for children aged 5-18yrs from its art studio situated within Eel Pie Boatyard. Private tuition, at-home art classes, and bespoke birthday parties are also available for residents of Twickenham and surrounding areas – as a travelling art school, the classes can come to you!
The classes are taught by experienced teachers, and use a step-by-step approach to cover a range of traditional skills such as drawing, painting and sculpture. The art materials used by students are of professional quality, and the projects for each class are unique, covering different themes every term, and referencing art history throughout.
Cygnets Art School Twickenham is new branch of the hugely successful Cygnets Art School that was founded in Kingston in 2015. A second school was opened in Richmond not long after the first, and in 2019 the school began franchising, allowing creatives across the UK to open their own Cygnets Art School.
Cygnets Art School Twickenham is run by Molly Butt, artist and resident on Eel Pie Island. Molly studied Fine Art BA at Kingston University, and completed an MFA at Wimbledon College of Art in 2016. Having assisted Cygnets founders, Tabby and Hessy, with some of their regular classes, she was keen to pursue a career teaching art to kids alongside her own painting practice.
Molly is a skilled oil painter and exhibits regularly in London. Though painting is her main focus, drawing, sculpture and printmaking also play important roles in her work. Architecture and the natural world are her main sources of inspiration… Eel Pie Island and its boatyard is the perfect place for an artist to be based, and for budding artists to be inspired!
Regular classes take place on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays during term-time on Eel Pie Island.

The Information Commissioner, who oversees rights to privacy and information in the public interest, has warned businesses they need to inform their customers about how their data is shared.
Commissioner Christopher Graham's warning comes as new figures reveal 85 percent of consumers are concerned about how their personal information is passed or sold to other organisations.
Further, 77 percent of those surveyed were worried that their personal details were not being kept securely by firms.
Graham said: "Providing people with enough information to understand how their details will be used is a basic principle of data protection. While the vast majority of companies are meeting the letter of the law, figures released today show that most people remain concerned about how their information is being shared. This situation is not good for consumers, or for businesses.
"We are set for a new data protection framework in the next three years, but there are still basic things that organisations can be doing today, not only to comply with the current legislation, but also to prepare for the future regulatory landscape.
"Businesses should take the results of our survey as a prompt to address consumers' concerns and provide clearer information to explain when people's details will be shared and with whom. Getting these basics right today will not only improve consumer trust but also help a business along the road to future compliance."
The ICO also published plans for the coming years this morning, in anticipation of the new EU data protection framework, which aims to clarify organisation's positions on storage and transfer of customer's data within the UK and internationally.
However, the new manifesto is at danger from lobbying influences that favour big data over big data protection, a European Data Protection advisor alleged.
The eight principles you need to comply with
To comply with the eight principles of the Data Protection Act, all organisations must ensure data is:
- Fairly and lawfully processed
- Processed for limited purposes
- Adequate, relevant and not excessive
- Accurate and up to date
- Not kept for longer than is necessary
- Processed in line with your rights
- Secure
- Not transferred to other countries without adequate protection
The online survey was conducted by ComRes on behalf of the ICO and asked 1,575 UK individuals their views on data protection.
