Site Restoration in Europe
Risk-based environmental management
By Martin Whittaker, James Sprenger & Matt Mculloch
Risk assessment is a key aspect of the Austrian Federal Environment Agencyís regulatory framework for environmental protection and restoration. A risk assessment methodology has been developed by the FEA based on the use of site-specific data and on the "top down" principle. Application of risk assessment is on two levels: by local authorities, on a case-by-case basis, and by the FEA, who act federally where systematic, nationwide guidelines are pertinent.
Use of risk assessment in Belgium is rooted principally in regulations relating to soil remediation. For historic contaminated sites, remediation must be undertaken if there is a potential for serious threat to human and/or ecological health, whereas for more recent or on-going contamination, remediation must be undertaken if soil quality criteria are exceeded. The soil cleanup standards themselves have been developed by the Flemish Institute for Technological Research using the Human Exposure to Soil Pollution (HESP) exposure model, that takes into account five different land uses (nature, agricultural, residential, recreational and industrial) and bases maximal exposures on Tolerable Daily Intake values for non-carcinogens and incremental lifetime cancer risks of one person in 100,000 for carcinogens.
In Denmark, the application of risk assessment is enshrined within the Contaminated Sites Act (revised 1996) and the Environmental Protection Act (amended 1996). Within this framework, suspected contaminated sites undergo various levels of investigation that focus on the potential risks that may be posed to human and ecological health under present and future land use conditions. If a site is considered to pose a potential or actual threat, it is registered as a contaminated site in the Danish Inventory of Contaminated Sites, and prioritized according to its potential impact on groundwater (drinking water protection), land use activities and surface water.
Between 1989 and 1993, the Finnish Environmental Administration undertook an extensive nationwide initiative, called the "SAMASE" project, to examine measures for and develop recommendations on the investigation, categorization and restoration of contaminated sites throughout Finland. The use of risk-based approaches was included as a specific element of the SAMASE project, particularly as it relates to the definition of contaminated soils and the protection of groundwater aquifers, which are a particularly valued ecosystem component in Finland. Despite this, and notwithstanding the guidance documents on site-specific assessment currently in preparation by the FEA, the application of risk assessment remains in its infancy, as the various stakeholders work to become familiar with the requirements of risk-based corrective action.
The application of risk assessment is relatively well established in France. Risk assessment is principally applied in a tiered manner as a means of prioritizing inventoried contaminated sites for corrective measures. Initially, a Simplified Risk Assessment (SRA) is applied to place the site in one of three risk categories, and ,if warranted, can progress to detailed risk assessment for high-priority sites. The French Ministry of the Environment, in partnership with various expert organizations, are in the process of producing technical guidance manuals for implementation of these policies.
Risk assessment in Germany is based upon the Soil Conservation Act (currently passing through the German Parliament), which is intended to harmonize national criteria for risk-based corrective action and site cleanup in concert with each federal governmentís regulations pertaining to contaminated site management. The application of risk assessment mirrors many other European countries in that, following identification of the contaminated site, a risk assessment is undertaken. To complement this approach, the Federal Ministry for the Environment, in partnership with others, is developing an exposure assessment model that provides for a land-use related exposure analysis. This will assess dose rates for certain contaminants, taking account of receptor-specific characteristics.
In Italy, contaminated sites are prioritized and managed through regional administrations within a national regulatory framework. The utilization of risk assessment as a management framework is also under the charge of the regions, and this has been supported recently through the ENEA-UNICHIM Working Group on Contaminated Soils and Groundwaters. The Working Group was set up in 1994 with the objective of defining site assessment and remediation procedures, and developing characterization and remediation technologies: risk-based corrective action was identified as a key component of these objectives. At present, a risk assessment approach based on the US EPAís RBCA methodology is being appliedóparticularly to sites regarded as high priorityóand this is being supplemented by a number of new initiatives aimed at harmonizing risk assessment practices and improving the risk assessment information base.
The Netherlands bases the prevention and remediation of contaminated soil on its Soil Protection Act. Target, limit, and intervention values have been established for soil and groundwater as part of a general framework of risk-based environmental quality objectives. Target values represent background concentrations in which risk is considered negligible. If target values are currently not met, limit values may be applied to define general concentrations which must be attained. General requirements for soil use may be established to account for local interests, and this can be backed up by a time horizon for restoration activities. Intervention values are created when "impermissible" risks occur, and these may include site specific factors.
The existing Norwegian policy on risk assessment is based on various Norwegian standards for environmental risk analysis at contaminated sites, developed under the auspices of the Norwegian Pollution Control Authority (SFT), in concert with CARACAS. The system encompasses human health and environmental components applied on a three-tiered basis (screening, simplified risk assessment, and extended risk assessment), with the emphasis placed on cooperation between regulators, industry, and the scientific community. Currently, this system is being formalized through the Norwegian project "Environmental Risk AssessmentóA decision model for assessment of polluted soil and groundwater, adapted to Norwegian conditions," which draws its framework primarily from the CARACAS project. The most significant advance has been made with the Chemical Hazard Assessment and Risk Management (CHARM) software model, developed and applied for use in the oil industry.
Under the direction of the Spanish Ministry of Public Works, Transportation, and Environment in 1991, a National Inventory on Contaminated Sites was initiated. The principle goals of this objective were to identify and characterize "worst case" contaminated sites and to prioritize each site through comparison and options of cleanup methods. The risk associated with each site is established by determining the relative threat an impacted site poses both on and off-site through factoring items such as the intensity and duration of the contaminant, toxicity, subsurface characteristics, and land use issues. Final prioritization is determined by combining both onsite and offsite priorities, and cost effectiveness.
In 1995, the Swedish EPA formalized a remediation action plan to establish long-term direction of site remediation work, and set feasible goals over a five-year period. A country-wide inventory of contaminated sites was produced by the Swedish EPA and county administrative boards. These boards and the municipalities are responsible for the practical implementation of remediation. The EPA develops methods and recommendations for risk assessments and will oversee assessments made by the local authorities. The Swedish EPA risk assessment methods focus on present and future situations and include the evaluation of contaminant toxicity, concentration, location and conditions, and the protective value and sensitivity of the surrounding areas. The Swedish remediation action plan is summarized in the report (in English), Weíre Well on the Way (Naturvardsverket, 1995).
United Kingdom
Risk assessment practices in the UK have been promoted both by the Environmental Agency (EA) in England and Wales, and the Environment Protection Agency in Scotland. Risks are estimated to prioritize sites using the source-pathway-receptor concept and evaluated through comparison with generic values or by models that accommodate site-specific characteristics. The Ministry of Environment has developed guidance on risk assessment methodology for assessing contaminant impact on groundwater and a Contaminated Land Exposure Assessment Model (CLEA) with associated guideline values. They have also designed statistically defensible sampling strategies as well as collected research on toxicological effects. The Environmental Agency has established a research program relating to the aims of contaminated land remediation, and the Research Councils, Construction Industry Research and Information Association (CIRIA) and other government-industry funding initiatives are all contributing to the development of contaminated land risk assessment.
The attitudes towards contaminated site management of the 15 member states of the European Union (EU) are particularly interesting in view of the imminent expansion of the EU eastwards, to include the highly-polluted countries of Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic. It will be interesting to see whether the thorny non-technical issues associated with the risk-based approach, particularly those relating to residual liability, will also be exported and, if so, how they will be managed. It is to be hoped that by enhancing our understanding of risk assessment practices abroad, we might be able to bring home a message that will encourage the wider use of RBCA-type approaches and rejuvenate the contaminated land redevelopment industry here in North America.

What is the newest Airport Explorers' book about?
Crafted by airport employees Judy McSweeney (author) and Sharon Gonzales (illustrator),
"Laverne, the Runway Stowaway" educates and entertains young audiences by sharing
the whimsical adventures of an endangered least tern who nests at the airport.
Through the eyes of imaginary airport characters Propeller Pete, SkyKid Sam, Jet
the dog and Flygirl Pearl, "Laverne" tells the story of a curious California least
tern chick who gets lost and with the help of her new friends tries to find her
way home on the airport's runway. "Laverne" was chosen as the small seabird's name
because it means "born in the spring," which corresponds with the April start of
the least tern nesting season.
Who is the book's author?
In addition to her writing talents, Judy McSweeney manages the Airport Explorers
program, which encompasses events, tours, books, school visits, educational items,
Web site resources and more. She relied on the airport environmental department's
vast research including blogs, photography, videos and personal interviews for written
Who is the book's illustrator?
Sharon Gonzales is a graphic designer and illustrator for San Diego International
Airport. She chose colored pencil to depict "Laverne" and her friends as that medium
renders itself well to book illustration. To create accurate facial expressions
for the book's characters, Sharon found real-life children and a pedigree beagle
to act as models. She was inspired to draw Jet the dog as a beagle because this
type of animal is generally inquisitive and active with expressive eyes. She also
studied the airport's least terns and their habitat to create a curious little bird
with animated black eyes.
How can I get a copy of the book?
San Diego International Airport will donate copies of the new book to hundreds of
libraries across San Diego County. Call your local library to inquire
about availability. "Laverne, the Runway Stowaway" is also available for purchase
Why does the California least tern nest at San Diego International Airport?
Listed under the Federal and California State Endangered Species Act since 1972,
the least tern is a migratory species that has found a suitable home at San Diego
International Airport. The least tern prefers to nest in small, scattered clusters
right on sandy beaches and salt flats along the western coast of North America,
from San Francisco Bay to Baja California, Mexico. Typical nesting sites are natural
or artificial open areas near estuaries, bays, or harbors where small fish are abundant.
At the airport, least terns have nested on the sand and gravel in the five oval
areas between the runway and the airplane taxiways since 1970.
What is the California Least Tern Protection Program at the airport?
The San Diego Regional Airport Authority has created a California Least Tern Protection
Program with guidelines for all airport, tenant and contractor activities during
the nesting season (April through September). The guidelines include the following
What efforts are being undertaken to protect the California least terns' habitat?
The greatest impact on the least tern population is caused by habitat loss due to
a continuing increase in urbanization. As a result of ongoing habitat preservation
efforts, the San Diego International Airport least tern nesting site is one of the
most productive in Southern California. The site is located at the southeastern
end of the airport's runway (Runway Oval 0-3-S) and close to the bird's food source
in San Diego Bay. This year, 139 least tern nests were established at San Diego
International Airport. The Airport Authority works in cooperation with the U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service, the Zoological Society of San Diego and the Port of San
Diego to protect the endangered least terns as well as other threatened birds, plants
and related habitats. For more information,

October 16th is World Food Day, observed since 1979 to encourage people to take action against global hunger and poverty. As a Compassion advocate, you can be a part of both the movement and the solution by joining One Meal One Day. Compassion's One Meal One Day campaign was designed to serve Compassion-sponsored children who live in places where malnutrition and food insecurity are so profound, they require extraordinary food interventions that exceed the capacity of Compassion's core services. But you can help bridge this gap.
One Meal One Day is about raising funds and skipping a meal so a child in poverty doesn't have to. If you haven't yet registered or want more information, visit onemealoneday.com. You can also learn more by accessing last month's One Meal One Day webinar recording.
Once you register to join One Meal One Day, you also have the chance to be named the 2013 One Meal One Day Ambassador. As the Ambassador, you'll have the opportunity to travel with Compassion overseas and share your experience with other Compassion advocates and supporters. Learn more about our 2013 Ambassadorship.
At 7:30 p.m. Mountain on Tuesday, Oct. 29, you're welcome to join us and a few of our fellow Advocates to talk about their advocacy. We've asked these Advocates to talk less about the source of their ideas and more about their process and struggle in implementing them. Hopefully we can each leave this webinar with some ways to make our ideas happen. Sign up now.
We're well into our fall term of Advocate classes. Sign-up to learn something new or have a refresher!
In the last year, Advocates have participated in nearly 300 coaching conversations. These conversations can make your impact for children in poverty even stronger. We warmly encourage you to go to compassion.com/coaching/ to start a coaching relationship today.
Advocates will soon be receiving Compassion's Gift Catalog in two sizes that will make it easy for you to share the ministry of Compassion in relevant and tangible ways. The full catalog presents 32 gifts that help release children from poverty in Jesus' name. The smaller version offers 10 of the 32 gift options in a brochure format. You can also access the gift catalog online. Additional catalog resources, such as creating a personalized wish list, adding a Facebook cover image and posting a banner for a website or blog are found here. You can also order additional catalogs through the online ordering form.
You may again write Christmas cards for unsponsored children this year. Unsponsored children will receive a Christmas gift, and Christmas cards are a great way to send a personal blessing to children without sponsors. Cards should be received by Compassion by Dec. 2 to be mailed to the field before Christmas. Cards received after December 2 may be held until next year. An individual sponsor may send any number of cards without attachments (i.e. photos, stickers, etc.). Cards should be mailed to Compassion International, Attn: Suzanne Hall, 12290 Voyager Parkway, Colorado Springs, CO 80921-3668. Our GMC volunteers will be processing the cards before they are sent out by Compassion's Correspondence team.

On Tuesday three students at Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts competed for a chance to serve their own dish at tonight's Atlanta Hawks game at RED, the full-service restaurant inside the Phillips Arena. Boiled down from a pool of 30 entries, the three finalists had one hour to prepare their dishes from start to finish and serve it for a panel of judges, including Sr. Sous Chef of RED William Cowley IV, and Chef Kyle Reynolds and other Le Cordon Bleu chefs. The winner, Paul Thai, created a salmon dish with beurre blanc, roasted asparagus and fingerling potatoes. Here we talked with the chefs about how they chose the winner, and Thai shared his thoughts.
You selected the final three students for this competition. What went into the decision?
Chef Kyle Reynolds: They go through a lot of emotions, and the most challenging part was the students being able to distinguish who the recipe is going to be used. They had to analyze logistics of the dish to make sure it fit with RED's theme.
Tasting notes on Thai's dishes:
Paul Thai started at Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts six months ago. He also began working at AJA in Buckhead two months ago.
How did you come up with the idea for this salmon dish?
One night the chef at AJA asked me create a special. Looking through our inventory, we had salmon and I had seen a chef demo at school for buerre blanc sauce, so I decided to combine the two for that night's special. A few weeks later I heard about this competition, and my special had gotten positive feedback so I decided to try it out.
What was going through your mind?
I was nervous to see people walking around and taking pictures while I was cooking. As a Hawks fan, I really wanted to win this and have a chance to cook at the game.
You seemed pretty calm during the competition though.
In school and work, chefs are always making sure you keep your area clean when prepping and cooking. Mise en place is important and as long as you organize all your ingredients, it makes the execution easier.
Organization helped you in today's competition because you had to think on your feet.
Yes, I was going to do a cucumber salad with the dish, but there weren't any cucumbers so I had to think on the fly. I came up with a different side: roasted fingerling potatoes and asparagus.
What are you most nervous about when you go to cook in RED's kitchen on Wednesday?
Since I am a visitor in the kitchen, I really want to fit in with everyone. I want to respect their stations and space.
What are your plans for the future?
I'd like to work under a good chef for a few years and then potentially open my own restaurant with cross-cultural cuisine.
Thai is well on his way to success. His salmon dish will be featured as the special on Wednesday, February 19th at the Atlanta Hawks game versus the Washington Wizards.

Nikon 1 AW1 Review
Nikon 1 AW1 Review - Verdict
Although the AW1 is built like a tank and survived our brutal test at sea, it's not entirely faultless. The lack of manual controls on the body means you'll constantly have to fight your way through the menu if you like to be in charge of frequently used settings, and in that respect it's just like other Nikon 1 system CSCs - great for the point and shoot snapper who wants no fuss, but not as good for the more advanced photographer who likes to get creative.
As a system camera, it's currently in a niche of its own. With no other fully waterproof or shockproof CSC like it, it suggests the AW1 could be the first in a new line of similar rugged CSCs from other manufacturers.
Though the build will shake off the worst knocks and drops, we'd like to see the design improved with a rubberised grip and a fully waterproof fisheye lens added to the NIKKOR 1 range, which we see as a must for underwater photography.

MILWAUKEE (WTAQ) - A Milwaukee man who's under investigation in the disappearance of his girlfriend is having two non-related cases consolidated.
A trial date of June 2nd is set for 39-year-old Kris Zocco on 17 counts of possessing child pornography and five drug-related charges. Zocco was arrested separately for those two matters, after 27-year-old Kelly Dwyer disappeared last October.
Recently-released search warrant affidavits showed that a cadaver dog searched Zocco's apartment for evidence of homicide and hiding a corpse. Officers later searched a landfill for Dwyer -- but they have not disclosed what type of evidence they found.
Officials recently said Dwyer is still considered a missing person.

American Idol Season 11 winner Philip Phillips is in town performing in the American Idol Live 2012 Tour. It kicks off Friday night at the Joe Louis Arena in Detroit. This is Phillips first time visiting the Motor City. Friday morning, Jay Towers had the opportunity to ask him some questions at the Fresh 100 studios in Farmington Hills.What it's like to go from his old life to this new life after Idol?"It's definitely different now. Everywhere I go people know me, and I don't mind. It's fun meeting new people and fans and whatnot, and I enjoy it. I'm still trying to get used to it, though."The rocker from Leesburg, Georgia, who should have an album out later this year, also explained why he likes Detroit's own Eminem."His lyrics are just amazing. He's an insane rapper and just an artist and there's no one like him, in my opinion, and I love trying to figure out the meaning of some of his songs," said Phillips. "I really respect him ... for saying what he wants to and not really caring."So, is he connecting with some of his old Idol friends for the first time really since winning?"They've been really good to me. They haven't left me out in the rain or anything, so it's been fun having good times with them and talking and just catching up."

Other Maxima Reviews
User Reviews
The community thinks...
I LOVE my Maxima!!!! by Kitkat Tampa on 01/18/2012. Trim: 2001 Nissan Maxima SE, Owned more than 10 years.
Pros: Bought this car new back in 2001, and now I have 125,000 miles on it. It's got great acceleration , very peppy, can always get out of the way if I need to, fun to drive, very, very reliable car. Great sound system, great A/C, nice interior, still looks really good outside, if people could be considerate of others when they park and not put dings in it!! Just a really good overall car. I'd buy one again in a heartbeat..
Cons: Not much..I have been very happy with it, but I have had a few brake issues with it,,rotor resurfacing and new rotors, the leather seats in back have torn somewhat, but I think that's more from my kids being careless and throwing backpacks in it..turning radius could be a little better, but I'm used to it now..
Overall review: I have been extremely pleased with this car, have had it since day one..almost 11 years now, it'll be a sad day for me when I have to let it go, but I am passing it on to my daughter, so it won't be far....I did read how some people say to become acquainted with their mechanic..I do not know what they are talking about..regular oil changes, basic maintenance, still looks really nice for 125,000 miles,,I must be doing something right!! It's really been a very easy car to own,,very few trips to the mechanic and still runs like new. It's always been extremely reliable and has never let me down or stranded me anywhere. We are seriously considering another new Maxima in the next year or so and I just hope it will be as great as this one has been, I wouldn't even consider anything else, with the exception of Infiniti..but I test drove a couple times and they seemed to ride rather rough and coarse, liked the Maxima's ride much better..

A shortage of primary care physicians is presenting some unique challenges for both the medical community and patients in North Carolina and across the country.
Locally, Campbell University's new medical school will help train new doctors. In the meantime, nursing school programs, like the ones offered at the University of North Carolina, are stepping up to try and fill the gap with nurse practitioners.
"If you don't have enough primary care providers, there are people who will go without care," said Debra Barksdale, associate professor and director of the UNC's Doctor of Nursing Practice program. Barksdale has been a nurse practitioner for 26 years.
In the next couple of weeks, the UNC nursing school plans to train nurse practitioners to do more clinical patient care. And Barksdale said there is no shortage of applicants.
"We're just not able to find enough spots to accommodate all the potential students we'd like to have," said Barksdale.
It's the same with medical schools. Interest is on the rise, however funding is down. But money isn't the only problem.
"There's a faculty shortage. Faculty are getting older, we call that the graying of the faculty," said Barksdale.
According to the Association of American Medical Colleges, nearly half of all doctors in the United Sates are over the age of 50. By 2020, when millions more of Americans will have access to health with President Obama's health care plan, the association says there will be a shortage of 92,000 doctors.
Studies show the cost of training 12 nurse practitioners is the same as putting one doctor through medical school.
"Nurse practitioners are not trying to be doctors, we're not training them to be physicians," said Barksdale. But Barksdale says they hope to fill the gap.

Mastodon on Friday the 13th
The last two times Mastodon have been through Chicago have been on more than appropriate dates. There was the show on what has been known to be Nigel Tufnel Day – 11/11/11. This last gig was Friday the 13th. Given the superstition around that day, I'd give them marks for being the appropriate soundtrack for it. On Nigel Tufnel Day they had a fresh album, The Hunter. It's not like its predecessors, which were conceptual in nature. This album is more of a collection of very strong songs. It may not tell a direct story, …

Each week, The Reporters put their thumbs out to the good and the bad in the world of sports. This week, they discuss the passing of iconic Lakers' owner Jerry Buss, the Canadian Football Hall of Fame voting results, the Alouettes' hiring of Dan Hawkins and the NHL Draft lottery rules.
Bruce Arthur, National Post: My thumb is up to the late Jerry Buss, who died this week after 33 years of owning the Los Angeles Lakers. He bought the Lakers in 1979 and Magic Johnson was waiting on his doorstop. 33 years later: 31 playoff appearances, 10 titles, 16 NBA Finals. No one has done it better than Jerry Buss, who not only took the Lakers from a great franchise to an iconic franchise but did it in such a way that he made the place where they played a place for celebrities and pushed as much as he could to let ordinary people watch it on television. He had more fun than anybody else, he did it in an age where sports is becoming more and more corporate when it comes to ownership, more of a business. For Jerry Buss, it was a passion. And for all of that, in a lot of ways, he was the smartest guy in the room.
Steve Simmons, Sun Media: My thumb is down to the Canadian Football Hall of Fame voting committee, who only got it half right this year in the Hall of Fame Class of 2013. The easy choices were Earl Winfield of the Hamilton Tiger-Cats and Dan Ferrone of the Toronto Argonauts; those guys are slam dunk Hall of Fame guys. But what the Hall seems to do year after year is they vote for longevity. If you've been around a long time like Miles Gorrell, you get in, not because you were a great player, because he wasn't a great player but because you played forever and ever. I don't think that's right. I think the Hall of Fame is for greatness, not longevity.
Michael Farber, Sports Illustrated: My thumb is down to the Montreal Alouettes for the hiring of Dan Hawkins as their new head coach. Hawkins has never coached pros, he's never coached in the CFL and the Colorado (NCAA) program where he was coaching last was circling the drain and he did nothing to pull it out. To criticize (Alouettes GM) Jim Popp, I'm going out on a limb because Popp's the best GM in the CFL but I think he swung and missed here.
Dave Hodge, TSN: Here's a halfhearted thumbs up to the NHL for changing the Draft lottery rules and allowing any of the non-playoff teams to win the lottery and get the first pick. But with weighted odds, the best of those non-playoff teams will have a less-than-one per cent chance of winning, or, in other words, the fans of that team needn't book a banquet hall for a viewing party. The NHL missed a chance to make it really interesting by giving all 14 non-playoff teams an equal shot at number-one, and a more important result of that change would have been the removal of any and all incentive to finish last. Never again a discussion about tanking. But I hope for too much.

Capital Formation and Capital Stock in Indonesia, 1950-2007
AbstractThis paper presents long-term estimates of gross fixed capital formation for 1951-2007 that are disaggregated by categories of productive assets. These data, combined with approximations of probable average asset lives and a feasible asset retirement method are used in a Perpetual Inventory Method to estimate gross fixed capital stock in Indonesia for 1950-2007 disaggregated by productive assets. Most of Indonesia's capital stock long consisted of residential and non-residential structures. Total capital stock grew significantly since the late-1960s at about 10% per year, until the 1997-98 economic crisis. The high capital-output ratio in 1997 suggests that part of Indonesia's high economic growth during the 1990s was due to unsustainable resource accumulation.

I made these cookies for my daughter's Teddy Bear's Picnic birthday party. They fit the theme perfectly and my word they are delicious and thoroughly addicting! They taste like chocolate puffed wheat squares without the mess and the sticky factor. I do think you have to make them with the cereal and not just plain puffed wheat or that flavour wouldn't come out.

Modern Art from 1930: Surrealism and Neo-Romanticism - National Museum Cardiff
Surrealist art was concerned with dream imagery and the subconscious world. The artists experimented with various techniques to unleash the unknown strangeness of the mind.
Surrealism began in Paris in 1924, born in a time of cultural upheaval and scepticism, following the horrors of the First World War. The Surrealists freed themselves from the control of reason and developed new artistic techniques to illustrate their subconscious thoughts and dreams.
The movement came to public attention in Britain with The International Surrealist exhibition held in London in 1936.
This gallery displays works by some of the British artists involved in this exhibition including Eileen Agar, John Banting, Henry Moore, Graham Sutherland, Julian Trevelyan and Paul Nash.
Surrealism took on a diverse form in Britain. It was seen as an alternative to pure abstract art and encouraged them to engage with nature in new ways, particularly the landscape.
Surrealism was linked to the emergence of a new style in Britain called Neo-Romanticism. This movement built on a long landscape tradition in British art.
Many Neo-Romantic artists, including Graham Sutherland, chose to work in Wales. They were interested in variety and uniqueness of the Welsh landscape.

Even my mom was really happy for me :))))) I'm proud of myself! ❤
August 9, 2012.
Woke up super early but then I took a nap. I prayed like all night I'd stay positive through out the whole day and freak out o: which I sorta did but Diana told me to listen to music haha. So I went to wshs and we ran 5 laps. Surprisingly, I didn't die like I did the first day LOL. I was sweating but I felt a bit more fit. Which was good.. I guess. Then we did stretches. Then we did serving which I need to stop freaking out and relax and that's when they get over. After we did scrimmaging and it was so scary /: every time I messed up I got more and more frustrated but I guess I did alright. I thought I was gonna get cut cause me and Alex are similar like experience wise and Kelsey is amazing lol. And I thought only 2 people were setter. We keep playing and it's already 8:30… We get into a line and three people were supposed to get cut. Sarah (not duff, the one on my team) got cut. Then the line goes and I hear cara screaming with joy LOL. I knew she would make it anyway haha then Diana goes and she's like about to cry. I heard the coaches and the cut her/: that's when I kinda freaked out and coach Stephanie told me my sets were good :D then as I went in I told her to wish me luck LOL. I'm like shaking.. And the freshman and assistant freshman coach say are you nervous and I'm like yes and they said I shouldn't have to be and I gave them a hug LOL they like complimented me and said they were impressed yayyy! Then they handed me a paper and I tried leaving but the door wouldn't open hahaha I looked stupid 😳 but it opened and Abby bos cara and Diana were outside and Abby also made it! Yay:) and I think this new girl Lauren got cut so yeah… It was happy and sad at the same time cause I really wanted all three of us to make it but life goes on… Diana was handled it well! O: so yeah I made the team! West Springfield Freshman Volleyball
I think tomorrow she said we're doing like scrimmages and stuff. Please let my over hands go over 😰😰😰😰 I'm still worried like I'll be confident if I make the team but hopefully we can:) like if 3 or even 2 make jv we can most likely all be in freshman!! Ahhhh 😳
August 8, 2012.
So today we did agility as in like suicides, triangle drill(omg worst drill every but I pulled through and survived!!!!) it's like you go in a triangle 20 times but there's like four places idk how to explain it. Jump roping which I did the most out of everyone! 200 in 2 minutes:) and wall sits which I should've pushed harder for but I didn't :( but you know I can't take it back now I just learn from it! We also did like jumping stuff to see how high we can jump and sit ups which I surprisingly did more than cara which was only by like 2 idk. Then we did passing which I did terrible on so I started freaking out but I kept being positive and asked for God to help me and stuff.. Like literally God gave me the strength to do everything I did today o: so thankful
Soooo we do suicides which is you touch a line then touch the beginning line, go further and touch that line come back, etc. Then we do some drills and they split us into two groups.. Ones honestly the more skilled group.. And me & Diana didn't get in that group and we gave each other a look like 😰 haha but I was freaking out and I was like silently praying like PLEASEEEE GOD :( but I worked my butt off and me & Diana got switched over to the more advanced group you can say but I don't wanna be all cocky… So ya. Then I literally didn't stop like I tried my hardest. But that was you know kinda shocking cause it's scary!!! Coach Stephanie always sees me when I'm doing bad/: it's okay tho.. I guess/: but yeaaaahhh then at the end coach Stephanie told us tomorrow (today) we were gonna do agility as in like running and maybe even the mile 😰😰😰😰 so I kept praying it would rain or she'd be in a good mood so we didn't have to run:( so I kept freaking out but my friends were there to support me which was good:))
August 6, 2012.
Today was volleyball try outs for the freshman team at west springfield high school :)
I wasn't really nervous at first cause I knew God had the best plan for me. As in, if I don't make the team, there is a reason for it. :P I mean of course i'd be really sad and probably cry.. but there has to be a reason. And if God wants me to make the team, then thats okay too :D So right before try outs like at 3:10 me and my sister Diana went to buy running shoes. I was about to be late so I kinda just found a pair which actually arent that bad! Like theyre comfy and thats all that should matter :) thank you Lordddd, you always pull through. I've been praying like every night that we don't do the mile o____O which we didn't today. But what if we do tomorrow?!?!? I DON'T WANNA JINX IT MEHHSADIWANIJOD. Hopefully not because i'd cry if we do the mile:( that's how out of shape I am.. well, always was. llololol. So i get there and my number is 38! which of course i would come up with some nerdy thing to make it special LOL like 8 minus 3 is 5, 5 times 2 = 10. which was my all star jersey number LLOLOLOLOL thats when you know…
Soooooooo, me and hannah kiene (a girl who was on my all stars team) peppered for a bit jk i think we just went straight to serving LOL which mine didnt go in so i was kinda nervous oooooo: then we ran three laps around the gym which made me tired.. and "ran" as in just kinda jogged LOL. lindsey probs -___-
then we started with passing drills which I did decent, i mean everyone was good. or at least the same level.. well most of us! i wasn't really noticed then. Then we did setting which I think two or maybe one of the coaches saw me do good, so thats good! like the freshman assistant coach asked for my number and stuff and the jv coach asked for it also! i think he likes me hahaha
then i think we did serving? we started at the 10 foot line, then the 20 foot, then 30. the real deal. Most of mine actually went over!!! i was proud hehehahdakdn and the jv coach again asked for my number flesjifef hopefully thats a good thing :)))))))
eeeeeeeep. then we did hitting which wasnt too good\: like i need to learn to time it well and my feet form is decent but i swing my arms around like a bird -_____- i really needa change that but idk how. i also need to concentrate on everything like focus on one thing at a time. then i think we did queen of the court which was ok i mean coach stephanie never sees me when i do good which sucks but hopefully the other coaches did!!!!
that was try outs day 1 and it went fairly good but not perfect. I mean, we didnt run which im sooooo thankful for!!! and i asked coach stephanie if we'd be doing the same thing tomorrow and she said new drills but we'll focus on skills and actual playing so thats good o;
Everyone is really good well not really good but everyones at the same level except for like brittany taylor & some other girl who got asked to try out with jv AND mekayla and megan marin were asked. I think kelsey is like the best haha so i thought she'd be with the jv but i guess not idk. so basically everyone has an equal chance. OOO: i just really dont wanna be cut wednesday.. ):
it scares meeeee but i have to focus one day at a time. day one = check
day two, here i come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Abigails birthdaaaaaaaaaay.
her party wasnt that fun. lol. her & nora had it together ;P
her and matt are about to get back together LOLOL i hate him and me and abby keep fighting about it but whatever im done. she can get hurt and i'll laugh.. probably not but still. kdwjdiohadwihdwio

There are times carrying is needed, and other times it is not. If your a tank being healed by a decently geared healer while your wearing PVP gear and PVE DPS gear as your tank set, chances are the group isn't going to want to carry you after the fourth pull. Similarly if your wearing lots of gear with hit as a healer, a tank is going to oust you (at least both situations are things I do as heals/tank). If your in an important roll, you need to gear right and be expecting not to be carried. Those who only DPS will never fully understand the concept of pulling your own weight and making the right choices in your gearing and such in PUG environments (this comes from a person who pugged 7/12 ICC back in the days as a lock).
All in all my advise to everyone is to do research on any class/role you intend to partake in for the raid finder, make sure your items are for the correct environment (as in your wearing full PVE or less than 3 pieces of PVP), come with your gear enchanted/gemmed/reforged (when applicable as not all items have to be reforged or they can't be in some cases) so that you can bring your A-game to every encounter performance-wise. After that, simply read up on the encounter, be prepared to shell out on repairs from the 20+ wipes you are about to receive, and be happy you get to enjoy something that was typically very hard to accomplish in older content.

On Monday evening we had the call to say we would go out on Tuesday lunch
time for a look, there was a force 6 forecast for a short period of time
but my pilot and I agreed to give it a go and if the forecast did not
settle we would put it down to a training swim.
Well it was one hell of a training swim, top end of a force 5 touching 6,
my crew were thrown around on the boat, 2 came away with bruises, 3 were
sea sick and it really wasn't very pleasant. Every time I took a breath
away from the boat I could see the mast above me and when I breathed to the
side of the boat I could not see the hull. I was most definitely better off
in the water! So after 4 ½ hours we agreed there was no way I could do a 2
way in the conditions I was battling against so we agreed to return back to
Dover and wait for a better weather window.

In Evansville, a show of support for those who didn't get to finish the Boston Marathon. A group of local runners gathered at Central High School Sunday, to show their support by running.
The organizer of Sunday's "Run for Boston" event says she got the idea from the Facebook page "Run for Boston." It encouraged people nationwide to run one mile on Sunday at 1:50 p.m.
"Symbolically, for the twenty-sixth mile, the last mile of the marathon that so many people couldn't finish," said Brooke Hickrod, Organizer, Run for Boston.
The 1:50 p.m. start time of that run to remember those who experienced the bombing at the Boston Marathon just before two o'clock last Monday.
About a dozen Evansville runners met at Central High School Sunday afternoon, running a one-mile course around the school.
"I was in shock," said Rusty Williams, participated in run.
Runner Rusty Williams says he heard the news of the Boston attack on his way to work last Monday. He tells us one of his friends ran in the marathon and thankfully was finished well before the bombing.
Rusty says he's been participating in running events for a few years and isn't about to stop now.
"Whatever happens, happens," said Rusty. "There isn't a lot you can, I'm not going to sit around looking over my shoulder all the time."
Run for Boston organizer Brooke Hickrod says Sunday's event helps show just how united our country is.
"Runners are a pretty hardy group and we're hard to get down," said Hickrod.
"We support every city no matter what," said Lisa Anderson, participated in run.
Rusty, offering some advice to aspiring runners.
"Don't let what happened there affect your motivation and stuff because you've got to just keep going," he said.
A couple of the runners I talked with today say they already have plans to run some half marathons later this year.

Defensively strong Squalicum Storm beats Borderite soccer team, 4-1
Published on Thu, Oct 18, 2012 by
Russell Paris
Read More
The buzz in the pregame crowd on was how lucky we were to have such mild, dry fall weather. On Tuesday, October 9, the girls' soccer team went up against the powerhouse Squalicum team some say is the best in the Northwest Conference.
"Even though we lost, I am really proud of our girls," head coach Dan Steelquist said. "We had two 20-minute stretches where we played better or at least on par with the strong Squalicum team that had not given up a goal in their last six games."
First half
Defense was paramount the first 21 minutes, when both sides cross-checked hard and played the ball safely to prevent goal-scoring breakaways. The Borderites held their own.
Starting at the 22-minute mark, play shifted into the area in front of the Blaine goalkeeper, senior Anna Hewitt. Hewitt made several saves, tallying seven over the course of the game. But at the 24:12 mark, Squalicum's Kim Dorr scored on an assist from Loran Gibb.
Then just eight minutes later, Leigha Schjelderup added another, with an assist by Kim Hazlett.
Hazlett went on to score twice in the second half.
At halftime, Steelquist told the girls he was encouraged to see them play at the other team's level.
"We just need to concentrate on what we practiced this week," he said. "This is a really good team we are playing, and you are holding your own. You have developed this season to where we can play with anyone."
Second half
The Borderites sensed Steelquist's belief in his team and responded by scoring within the first two minutes of the half.
Senior Alicia Allison put a precision shot into the back of the net after receiving a well-placed pass from freshman Ashley Quesada.
Allison's goal kick-started Hazlett and the rest of the Storm offense, which went on to beat the Borderites 4-1.
"Even in defeat against a well balanced, bigger 2A school team, we stayed organized in the back defense area, did not panic and we properly pushed the ball down field on the outside," Steelquist said.
"I feel privileged to coach these girls. They listen, care and perform. These fundamentals will help us in our 1A competition and the district playoffs."
Blaine next plays Sedro-Woolley at 4:30 p.m. Thursday, October 18, at Pipeline Field.

CALDWELL -- A former day care employee in Canyon County who admitted he sexually abused two dozen children has been sentenced to 32 years to life in prison.
Joshua Ritchie pleaded guilty in December to a dozen sex crimes including lewd conduct with a minor, sexual abuse of a minor and sexual exploitation of a child. The charges stem from 2007 to 2012.
Deputing Prosecuting Attorney Erica Kallin says today's sentencing hearing was filled with emotional testimony from parents and victims, and lasted more than three hours. She said her heart goes out the the victims and their families.
Detectives said in August 2012 they began investigating Ritchie after a 5-year-old boy said he was abused by his day care provider.
Ritchie worked at Cornerstone Childcare and Learning Center in Nampa, the Idaho Arts Charter School in Nampa, and as a lunchroom worker with the Nampa School District.
Investigators said in August that some of the victims were touched at the day care, while others were family friends and family members.
In December 2012, Ritchie pleaded guilty to multiple felonies for inappropriate sexual conduct with young boys.
The Canyon County Sheriff's Office had also said they confiscated two media devices from Ritchie that contained child pornography.
