I want select an area and rotate is content. But this content mustn't be scaled (it's why FitInside and FitOuside are not good) and without black zone (or zone is outside of the picture). If you prefer i want :
1- select an area,
2- rotate picture with area center as transform center,
3- crop the rotated picture
Edit: yes, use 3 corner is a solution.

I've begin my second article. You can find the explanation in beta version about the problem and how i createhttp://developer.nokia.com/Community...ROI_extractionCode:public static IFilter CreateCropFilter(Rect cropArea, double rotationAngle)
As far as image filters are concerned this SDK serves the purpose. But IMHO, I will not call it as Imaging SDK as it works in a part of imaging domain(feature detection, HDR etc). I would call it Image filter SDK. But this is not important.
Extension Points: The important thing is that, AFAIK, SDK has no extension points. If I need to create custom filters which are not covered by SDK, I have no way. I have no problem with static, sealed FilterFactory class which cannot be extended in traditional ways as it is sealed nor I can write extension methods to it as it static. I tried to implement IFilter interface, I got image from editing session in Apply method but I have no way to pass it back to the session after applying filter algorithm. This is a 'must have' feature for the SDK.

Why rendering time increase with scale value between the input and the output (zoom out). In this case, i don't thinks you use a simple interpolation. Maybe it's could be interesting to specify which interpolation SDK must use?
Hello, this is my rather larger feedback to the Nokia Imaging SDK
First of all, I've just checked most of wiki pages related to this SDK, downloaded provided samples and checked some SDK methods and I'm really surprised how this SDK is simple to use and how many filters it provides. I was expecting something really complicated, undocumented with ~15 average filters, but the actual SDK is the exact opposite, thanks for that.
Well but nothing is ideal, here are my ideas, how to make this SDK even better.
The Nokia Wiki related to the Imaging SDK
Overall the Wiki contains all I could expect regarding the Imaging SDK – I appreciate the step by step guide for creating my first app using this SDK and also the Core concepts page describing the usual workflow.
- It would be great to have some samples and wiki pages for C++ developers as well. I guess 4/5 of all WP8 developers are using C#, but having direct tutorials for C++ devs could get you definitely more audience.
The pages describing created samples are fine, but:
- The File Explorer sample page has some minor errors in Architecture overview – there is no "WPF" in Windows Phone, the author probably meant XAML.
Another idea that occurred to me, what I'm missing, is:
- One wiki page with big Filter overview, where user can find all available filters including basic documentation what every parameter does and including preview images with applied filters, ideally for each available filter parameter. This would save us lot of time, if anyone wants to create simple "Instagram" clone with only about 5-10 filters, so he won't have to tediously try each of them, how do they look.
The provided Samples
Just some code review regarding the samples:
- I'd personaly use much shorter and readable implementation for properties implementing INotifyPropertyChanged, for instance StreamItemModel.Filter:
Code:public FilterModel Filter { get { return filter; } set { Set(ref filter, value); } } private FilterModel filter; #region INotifyPropertyChanged implementation private const string FakePropertyName = @"A property name must be specified if not using C# 5/VS2012"; protected bool Set<TName>(ref TName field, TName newValue, [CallerMemberName] string propertyName = FakePropertyName) { if (EqualityComparer<TName>.Default.Equals(field, newValue)) { return false; } field = newValue; RaisePropertyChanged(propertyName); return true; } public virtual void RaisePropertyChanged([CallerMemberName] string propertyName = FakePropertyName) { PropertyChangedEventHandler handler = PropertyChanged; if (handler != null) { handler(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName)); } } #endregion
- As I described in "one big filter overview page", it would be nice to have similar sandbox sample app for testing any available filter ideally with options to set filter properties to any supported values
API feedback
The API seems solid, there is only few things to point out regarding Filter parameter properties:
- CreateAutoEnhanceFilter needs better documentation. AutoEnhanceConfiguration – methods on this class are quite strangely designed: ApplyLocalBoost, ApplyLocalBoostOff, ApplyAutomaticLocalBoost, etc. I'm not sure which ones works with or against other ones.
- CreateBlurLevel, CreateDespeckleFilter, CreateNoiseFilter, CreateSharpnessFilter and maybe other filers are using enum values similar to "Low, Medium, High". I'd probably prefer float parameter with available value between 0.0 – 1.0 to be allowed to create more types of blur/noise filters.
- CreateCartoonFilter – instead of vague bool parameter 'bool distinctEdges' I'd rather use Enum for better readability and possible future adding of another cartoon filter option.
- There is a huge variability of used options types for filters – int, uint, double, float, byte… maybe using just int on all places, where uint is used, and float on all place where double is used could lead to more clean API design, but that's just my point of view.
- CreateSolarizeFilter and some other filters, here I'd add better documentation/xml comment to tell the user, what actually mean [0..1] – what effect has 0 and what 1. It's possible some users might be confused, how strong the resulting effect will be if 0.25 is used vs 0.75?
- Maybe each filter type factory method should be available without any mandatory parameters as well, for instance I want to quickly create app with applied Lomo filter, so I'd just use FilterFactory.CreateLomoFilter() instead of guessing, if "0.5, 0.5, LomoVignetting.Medium, LomoStyle.Neutral" are fine parameters for generic Lomo filter.
FilterGroup – nice idea how to create filter "batches", but:
- I've found a bug in there – there is no validation when calling new FilterGroup(params) for null values in the array, imagine this:
Code:IFilter[] fga1 = new IFilter[2]; fga1[0] = FilterFactory.CreateMilkyFilter(); FilterGroup fg1 = new FilterGroup(fga1);
- Also it would be completely valid and even more descriptive, if the constructor parameter of FilterGroup will be just IEnumerable<IFilter>, no need for IFilter[]
Another question is regarding the IFilter interface:
- Is it possible from dev point of view to somehow implement own IFilter? For Instance I want to create own filter, that applies two specific existing filters at once, like this - is this a valid class that could be used?
Code:public class DoubleMilkyFilter : IFilter { readonly IFilter fil = FilterFactory.CreateMilkyFilter(); public void Apply(IEditingSession editingSession) { fil.Apply(editingSession); fil.Apply(editingSession); } public void Undo(IEditingSession editingSession) { fil.Undo(editingSession); fil.Undo(editingSession); } }
- The problem here is the Apply and Undo method on IFilter has in comment
"Do not call this method directly, use IEditingSession::Apply/Undo", but the thing is, there is no Apply/Undo method on IEditingSesstion , at least no public method to use. So I guess this needs to be fixed either in API, or in documentation at least.
Feature requests
Although the library is nicely stable and quite feature complete, I got some feature request as well:
- Please create port of this library for Windows 8 apps as well! My guess is it should not be that hard, the WinPRT is really similar to WinRT and I cannot think of any WP-specific API you might've used in the current library, that would block the porting.
- I know, this is a long shot, but having some kind of light version of this SDK for WP7.5 would be nice too (note it's possible to use async/await in WP7.5 projects using Microsoft NuGet package)
- Right now there are no extensibility points in the app for creating own filters, only batch filters. Actually all these filters are from dev point of view only "black boxes".
- As some devs said before me, there is only limited option, how to modify the processing queue or filter parameters – no option for inserting, deleting specific filters, etc.
- Maybe I've missed it somewhere, but I'd love to have option for directly saving the processed image as png including transparency? I've seen only method for saving to Jpeg, WritableBitmap and Image? Maybe it's possible right now from the WriteableBitmap.
- I'd appreciate some kind of "Write text filter", so I can add text to any image with the option of custom font, font size, font style, position Rect…
- Is it possible to use this library in background task for generating live tile images from set of original source png files? I'm already doing something similar in one of my apps, putting image + text + badge on a tile and saving it as transparent png + displaying it on a live tile/lock screen.
Wish list
I'd really love to have more in Nokia Imaging SDK than just "lot of filters + cropping/resizing features". This last paragraph is mostly about such features, that goes beyond the initial feature set:
- Full support for reading, changing or deleting jpg EXIF data
- Possibility to create animated gifs programmatically just like in Cinemagraph app.
- Simple OCR feature just for returning strings contained within the image.
- Face or movement detection, that is used in various webcam security apps.
- API for creating panorama photos.
- Go Open Source?
That's all for now, I might add some other minor comments that might come to my mind while testing these samples more thoroughly.
When zooming at the pixel level, decoding/processing one macroblock will provide 64 pixels of the final image (a macroblock is 8x8 pixels). As you zoom out, the pixels needed to create the final image are further and further apart : you need to decode more and more macroblocks to fetch the pixels that will be on the final image, and while each macroblock that must decoded is still a 8x8 macroblock, only a few of the pixels of the block will be used in the final image, others are discarded. The increase in the amount of macroblocks that must be decoded explains the increase in the rendering time.
When you zoom out far enough, you may end up in a situation where you only need one pixel per macroblock. Through some special tricks, it's really fast to get that single pixel : rendering becomes real fast!
You will find here a nice overview of the JPEG compression process
Trying to briefly answer some of the issues raised...
I love the idea of having one application that shows all the filters and allow changing the parameters. The "filter Explorer" and the "Filter effect" sample applications are a good step towards that direction, but as you noticed they do not cover each of the 50+ filters. We wanted to keep the samples relatively simple, thus restricted ourselves to only a few filters. It would be great if one of these days a user of the SDK would create a full blown filter demo!
For your png and exif needs, you should take a look at other libraries: http://imagetools.codeplex.com/ and https://github.com/igrali/portable-exif-lib.
Right now implementing your own IFilter is not possible. It's really high on backlog for the next release. Harmonizing the filter parameters and Windows 8 support is also really high on that list.
Other wishes have been noted, hopefully Santa will deliver ;-)
The typos and the documentation errors you're reporting are real good catches, we will fix them.
Again, thanks for the good feedback,
Hi, I just want to agree with everything said before. My wishlist include the ability to create my own filters since alpha blending is not possible with the current set and a few additional filters are missing.
Also, can you split filters in separate NuGet package? This way the pipeline and the classes are separate from the actual filters involved.
Can I publish source code used for the competition as public on GitHub? It is easier for long term maintenance and people could get the latest changes I make. This means that my sample applications will become open source. I hope that there is nothing against that. However, that means that the wiki article will get out of sync with the latest version in terms of UI, capabilities and screenshots.
Just an update to my previous feedback regarding custom filters and sample app for testing all available filters including available options.
- It should be possible to create filters using standard object instantiation rather than only using Factory methods.
- Each filter should have parameterless constructor and optionally constructor with available parameters.
- Note there shouldn't be more different constructor types with different parameters, that's currently issue of some filters, BlurEffect for instance.
- It should be possible to modify filter properties once the filter is created.
What would be even better, if the filter Properties used some kind of attributes to describe allowed value ranges and default values:Code:IFilter lomoFilter = new LomoFilter(); IFilter lomoFilter2 = new LomoFilter(0.5, 0.5, LomoVignetting.Medium, LomoStyle.Neutral); lomoFilter.Vignetting = LomoVignetting.Low;
... and so on for other filters.Code:public sealed class LomoFilter : IFilter { [FilterValueRange(0.0, 1.0, 0.5)] // min, max, default value public double Brightness { get; set; } [FilterValueRange(0.0, 1.0, 0.5)] // min, max, default value public double Saturation { get; set; } [FilterValue(LomoVignetting.Medium)] // default value public LomoVignetting Vignetting { get; set; } [FilterValue(LomoStyle.Neutral)] // default value public LomoStyle Style { get; set; } public LomoFilter(){ ... } public LomoFilter(double brightness, double saturation, LomoVignetting vignetting, LomoStyle style){ ... } public void Apply(IEditingSession editingSession) { // internal filter implementation } public void Undo(IEditingSession editingSession) { // internal filter implementation } }
This way it will be really simple to create some kind of "All filter overview" app, that could generate filter editor pages automatically by gathering filter Property attributes and automatically creating Slider/ComboBox user controls for each editable property value. Sliders for ranges, ComboBoxes for enums, etc.
Another idea about the Nokia Wiki that came to my mind, Id appreciate if the wiki contained information how some of these filters are actually implemented, from mathematical point of view. I'd definitely read that!
Thanks again and I'm looking forward to interesting updates of this SDK
Hi Martin,
I just started implementing a layer on top of the current FilterFactory that would allow just that. I wrote my own classes to wrap existing filters inside. Once I have something to show, I will put it on Github. Maybe you would be interested in that?
I second your request for the mathematical implementation. The best solution would be to open source the SDK. That way we can port all filters to other platforms which would guarantee consistency across platforms.
I thought about some kind of wrapper too, that would just use the Factory methods internally. Let us know, once you have it

Setting Up an Award
Award Administration
When the university receives a grant or contract award, Sponsored Programs staff review proposed agreements associated with the award and negotiate terms and conditions which are both acceptable to the principal investigator and, at the same time, satisfy university policy concerns. Upon accepting the agreement, Sponsored Programs staff:
- Assist the principal investigator in managing the award and help to clarify agency regulations and policies
- Advise on such matters as allowable costs, subcontracts, or revisions; and
- Help resolve administrative problems that arise during the course of the project.
For more information on the award administration process, click below for portions of our Grants Management Manual.
Grants Management Manual
Grants Management Manual Overview ~ PowerPoint Presentation, PDF version
Direct versus Indirect Costs Matrix
Project Initiation and Project Administration
Upon acceptance of a grant or contract, Sponsored Programs staff request a new account from the Grants Accounting Department within the Division of Business and Finance. Throughout the life of the project, Sponsored Programs and Grants Accountants work together to properly manage the award.
Sponsored Programs staff prepare a spending plan for the principal investigator that translates the approved budget into codes from the University's accounting system. A Grant Budget Summary report showing the charges against a particular grant fund for a selected time period is available to run from FlashLine > "My Action Items" in the Finance Reports box. Instructions for running the report
Post-Award Management and Responsibilities
Principal Investigators are responsible for the day-to-day direction and administration of their project and must comply with all University and agency policies and regulations. Sponsored Programs staff are available to advise and assist with all situations relating to the funded project including interpretation of University policy, agency regulations, and allowability of costs and/or activities. Sponsored Programs staff has expertise in the areas of cost principles, agency regulations, and compliance issues.
Principal investigators are also responsible for monitoring all expenditures charged to the grant account and insuring that those charged expenditures are allowable. To ensure the effective allocation of resources, Sponsored Programs staff can assist in interpreting Month End Financial Reports and, as well, in projecting expenditures to the end of the grant period.
Reporting Requirements
All funding agencies require submission of project technical and financial reports.
- Technical Reports – Most agencies require an annual progress report and a final technical report. Principal investigators are responsible for preparing these reports. Sponsored Programs staff will transmit them to the funding agency on the investigator's behalf. As part of the requisite official grant record, the principal investigator must file a copy of all reports with Sponsored Programs.
- Financial Reports - The grant accountant assigned to the project prepares the financial report based on the expenditures recorded in the account. Principal investigators have the opportunity to review the financial report prior to submission to the agency.
- Project Closeout – After the project's termination date, no additional expenditures may be incurred. Funding agencies normally require the final technical and financial report ninety days after the project ends. The ninety-day period permits sufficient time for expenditures incurred before the end of the project to be liquidated and gives the principal investigator time to prepare the technical report. Patent disclosure, equipment disposition, and other required reports may be submitted after the termination date or with the final report. Grant/contract records are subject to annual audit; they must be retained for a minimum of three years from the date the final reports are filed.
FDP and Changes to Federally Funded Sponsored Projects
The Federal Demonstration Partnership (FDP) is a cooperative effort among federal research agencies, universities and the National Academy of Science's Government-University-Industry Research Roundtable aimed at streamlining and improving the federal/university research support relationship and reducing administrative burden on Principal Investigators. Part of the FDP's role is to maintain 'expanded authorities,' which authorize agencies to defer cost-related and administrative prior written approval required by federal regulations, to award recipients. The expanded authorities matrix is here. To request changes to an existing sponsored project, please complete the Institutional Prior Approval Form.
Financial Administration Forms
- Consultant Forms
- Institutional Prior Approval Form – This form is required when requesting a no-cost extension, budget revision, and other changes to the administration of a grant, as specified on the form. The form can be completed, signed, and returned to Sponsored Programs.

Evening of emotion: Big night pulls Farmington together
Tuesday, November 13, 2012
FARMINGTON — For a small community like Farmington, it's important to have a special night that brings townspeople together in the present to validate its past and connect it to the future.
"When I reflect back through the years," said Charette, who coached 500 youth basketball for 27 years, "I certainly enjoyed watching the fine athletes who carried on the Farmington basketball tradition. But I know what I remember most are the kids with lesser abilities that I knew would not go any further than our program. They were early to arrive and always eager to play, always having fun and always smiling. I will cherish those 500 Boys & Girls Club memories forever."
If Charette was a champion of the lesser athlete, then Howard, Mosher and Mucher were classic examples of the exceptional athlete, those who took what the 500 offered and used it to make themselves better at a higher level.
All three were key members of Farmington High School's 1983-84 undefeated Class M championship boys basketball team.
"Who will forget that picture of a young Tim Mucher standing on the rim at Plymouth State University holding up we're No. 1? That image is etched in so many of our minds," said HOF director Joel Chagnon.
All three twice earned Class M All-State first team honors. Howard and Mosher surpassed the 1,000-point mark for the Tigers, while Mucher later did so while starring at Plymouth State.
"Being an athlete early in life has taught me what life is all about," said Mosher, whose late dad, Dave Mosher, was inducted in 2010. "Sometimes you fail. Sometimes you succeed. If you want something, you need to work for it. Set your goals and achieve them. But the most it has taught me is about friendships and family."
Black, who could not make the event from his home in California, was a long-time 500 volunteer and past president. Hagar coached baseball at various levels and Vachon helped start girls youth softball in town. Gibbs was a standout basketball and baseball player during the late 1940s and early '50s.
Tears welled up in Hagar's eyes as he talked about the 1991 Farmington baseball team, which won the town's first Class M baseball championship. He was an assistant coach on that team and had coached most of the players, including his son, Aaron, since they were 8 or 9 years old.
"There were some rough times," he said. "They were mixed (up) emotionally and physically. You just had to talk to them. You had to talk to them in different ways. ... Those kids, I loved them all."
Rick and Diane Thayer accepted the Ellison Award for the Thayer family, whose generosity in Farmington, so noted Chagnon, has been second to none for decades. It was Jim and Beulah Thayer who donated $2 million in the mind 1990s to build the new Farmington High School.
The 500 had hoped that Beulah would attend the event, but unfortunately her health failed and she died late last month at the age of 100.
The 500 also recognized baseball players from the very first youth baseball season in 1952, when the 500 was born. Those on hand were Gene Dore, Norman Stuart, Dave Furber, Rick Thayer and Jerry McCarthy.
"You are the best program I have every seen in my entire life, my whole career" Peabody added. "This community is so fortunate to have all of you that started it. You have something very special in this community that no one else can touch. You can't touch it."

Lemon Meringue Pie
It's time for another Daring Bakers challenge. This month the challenge is a lemon meringue pie. A lemon meringue pie is a pie with a lemon filling and a meringue topping. I was particularly looking forward to this challenge as I have never had a lemon meringue pie and I like using lemon in sweet dishes.
Of course, I procrastinated until the very end. In fact I made the lemon meringue pie on the very last day. I completely forgot to pick up a pie plate and I had to use what I had on hand. I ended up using some mini spring form pans and a small circular baking dish.
Up until now I have not had so much luck with pie crusts. None of the pie crusts that I have made have been very good at all. This time I decided to try using a food processor to make the dough. The dough was really easy to make using the food processor. This pie crust turned out great! It was nice and light and flaky and golden brown. Right off at the start I was really pleased with this challenge if for no other reason than I had made some progress with my pie crusts! I will have to work on forming a nice looking edge the next time tough.
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup cold butter (cut into 1/2 inch pieces)
1/3 cup ice water
1. Place the flour, sugar, salt and butter in a food processor and pulse a few times to combine.
2. Add the water and pulse a few more times.
3. Press the dough together, wrap it in plastic and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
4. Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface.
5. Place the dough into the pie plate.
6. Bake in a preheated 350F oven for 20-25 minutes with foil on.
7. Remove the foil and bake until golden brown, about 10-15 minutes.
Lemon Filling
The lemon filling was pretty straight forward and easy to make. I really enjoy the way that lemon works in sweet dishes! I made sure that none of the filling left in the pan at the end went to waste. :)
2 cups water
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup cornstarch
5 egg yolks (beaten)
1/4 cup butter
3/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1. Bring the water to a boil in a sauce pan and set aside for 5 minutes.
2. Mix the sugar and cornstarch in a bowl.
3. Whisk the mixture into the water.
4. Bring the mixture back to a boil, whisking continuously.
5. Temper the eggs by adding a cup of the mixture to them and mixing them.
6. Pour the eggs into the sauce pan and whisk.
7. Bring to a bowl while whisking.
8. Add the butter and whisk until it is incorporated.
9. Add the lemon juice, zest and vanilla and mix.
10. Pour the mixture into the pie crust and cover with plastic so that a film does not form on the top and let cool
I have made meringue before, though the meringue that I made was a crispy and dry one where this one was nice and soft and moist. I sill have not been able to find any cream of tartar so I left it out. Since I don't have a mixer I pulled out my trusty pair of forks and beat the egg whites to peaks in no time. I almost didn't pull the pies out of the oven in time and the peaks of the meringue were browned pretty nicely. I was really pleased with the texture of this soft and moist meringue and it tasted pretty good.
5 egg whites (room temperature)
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1. Beat the egg whites, cream of tartar, salt and vanilla until they form soft peaks.
2. Slowly mix in the sugar.
3. Pour the meringue on top of the pie.
4. Bake in a preheated 375F oven until golden brown on top, about 15-20 minutes.
In the end the lemon meringue pies came together nicely. I, of course, had some right after taking the photos. The lemon meringue pies may have taken a bit of work to put together but they were well worth it. The crisp, light and flaky crust and the sweet lemon filling and the soft and sweet meringue topping really work well together. I need to try to start the next challenge before the last day the next time. Now I am off to take a look at the other Daring Bakers lemon meringue pies.

* Prices may differ from that shown
For the price this simple moisturiser is great. After cleansing and toning with other simple products this made my face feel soft and non greasy when I used it twice a day. I saw a reduction in redness and spots but this May have been due to th other simple products. I would recommend that you try this prpduct, of you don't like it it doesn't matter because it is fairly cheap :)
I always enjoy using Simple products and when my usual moisturiser wasn't in stock I turned to this one. I usually buy the light hydrating moisturiser from the range. The rich moisturiser comes in the same bottle as its simple light hydrating moisturiser rival and whilst priced slightly higher, there is not much in it. Many shops have offers on for these products so you will never be out of pocket with it.
I found this moisturiser good, it wasn't too greasy and provided a good base for make-up. I didn't need to apply a lot and it also didn't take too long to dry, meaning I could get on well with my morning routine. I personally found this thicker than the light hydrating simple moisturiser but as it is titled "rich" then it was as expected. So far has left my skin smooth and I am happy with the product. I would certainly buy it again however my preference is still with the simple light hydrating moisturiser which I found absorbs quicker and is slightly less greasy. However if you are looking for a more intensive moisturiser for drier skin then this would certainly be the product for you.
It is within a budget price range and for me it competes well with the more expensive brands. There are also other products in the simple range to accompany this product to get the best possible results. Overall I am impressed and would recommend to those on a budget, you will not be disappointed!
*Why did I buy this?*
I normally have normal/combination skin and have recently been prone to imperfections (a polite way of saying pimples I guess)! I usually use quite a light but nourishing moisturiser like Liz Earle but I have been looking for the past few months for cheaper alternative. I bought a moisturiser from the Simple range as the range is non-greasy so will not cause me further imperfections. I chose the rich moisturiser version as I thought it would help nourish my skin in the harsh winter months, as weeks of the two extremes of artificial heating and cold Welsh wind has caused my skin to become dry in places.
*The purchase*
I bought this a couple of weeks ago from Boots for £3.89, although I have seen this moisturiser in different shops and the price does very between £2.89 and £4.59. For this I got a 125ml bottle, although I know you can get this in a smaller 50ml bottle too. I think looking at similar products that £3.89 is a decent enough price for this.
*The range*
Simple is a very well known brand and they have a range of skin care products including face wipes, cleansers, moisturisers, eye care, toners, scrubs, masks and lip care. They have even recently launched a teen skin care range and have branched out into hair care.
This specific moisturiser has Vitamins B5 and E, and also has the main ingredients of glycerine, bisabolol and allantonin. None of these words mean much to me but after looking at a few different moisturisers it seems that glycerine in particular is a very widely used ingredients and is suppose to soften the skin. So that told me! This moisturiser also has UV filters in it, although I cannot see anywhere specifications as to the level of spf it has. Luckily (!) the sun isn't shining too much at the moment then!
*How to use*
I have used this for the past couple of weeks in the morning and evening. In the evening I use it after removing my make up and cleansing and in the morning I use before applying my make up. To use you need roughly a dollop around twice the size of a 50p piece (although I suppose this depends on the size of your face)!! I then use my hands to smooth gently over my face and neck.
The bottle has a flip top lid and is easy to flip off and control the amount you squeeze into your hand (the moisturiser doesn't come out of the bottle too quickly). The moisturiser sinks into the skin and absorbs really well. In the morning I notice that it only takes a few minutes to absorb before I can apply my make up which is really convenient, especially in those rushed mornings.
The moisturiser is white and the texture of the moisturiser is lighter than I had expected given the 'rich' title. There is no smell whish is one of the real bonuses to this range (who wants their moisturiser to smell when you're already wearing perfume eh)! It is non-greasy however and feels nice against the skin.
The moisturiser does make my skin feel soft to touch and generally hydrates it in place, however in some areas (around nose and chin where I am most prone to spots) it doesn't hydrate very well and whilst I wouldn't say I have flaky skin, the skin in these areas is definitely dry. I know this as by around midday when I look close up in the mirror I can see patches in my foundation which probably isn't all that noticeable to others but I can see it. (definitely doesn't hydrate for the 12 hours claimed then)!
For this reason I would say that whilst this is a decent enough moisturiser, this is definitely too light for the winter and more of a summer/spring moisturiser (spf pending). I am quite disappointed at the way in which it is marketed as a rick moisturiser when clearly it is not which is why I am only giving this dooyoo stars. Although I would use simple products again, I definitely wouldn't buy this product.
I've always had a major problem with finding a good moisturiser that actually lasts due to my sensitive, dry skin. However, I think I finally found a product that did the job - Simple Rich Moisturiser.
Unlike with other 'heavier' moisturisers Simple, with it's light texture, is easy to apply and quickly absorbed so you can apply make-up shortly afterwards. This is definitely handy when rushed in the morning.
It's 'multi-vitamins' and 'skin-loving' ingredients include pro-vitamin B5, vitamin E, Glycerin, Bisabolol and Allantoin. However, it's what it hasn't got in it which I find more important! It has 'no harsh-chemicals' or artificial perfume or colour so it doesn't upset the skin which for me is the most important aspect of a good, simple moisturiser.
It's light and non-greasy texture is ideal for me as it doesn't clog pores and cause nasty blemishes, which I happen to be very prone to getting. In fact, I found that after switching moisturisers to this one a few of my blemishes thankfully started to clear up.
Simple claim that this moisturiser 'carries on working for 12 hours' but although I almost never have to reapply in the same day, it seems unlikely to me that it really does last for that long. Possible 8 hours, but 12? Not so sure. And there are many other moisturisers who claim to last for much longer than 12 hours.
However, if all you need is a good, cheap moisture boost for the daytime then this one is perfect.
It also happens to be one of the cheapest on the market, only £3.89 for a 125ml bottle in store. And I regularly see it cheaper online at only £2.40.
For it's price, in my opinion, it's the best moisturiser for sensitive skin.
While online doing my Tesco grocery shop, I decided to treat myself to trying some new skin care. One of the products in my bathroom that was nearly finished was a decent moisturiser. So I purchased this one for £2.53 for a 125ml bottle.
Why did I buy this?
I bought this because firstly I have used this ranges eye balm, which I enjoy using so I thought this product would be a decent quality. Also, it was on special offer and had a third knocked off its original price. Lastly, the amount you get in the bottle I thought was fantastic-125ml. Normally, a face cream will be 50ml or 75ml, so thought this was good value and potentially could last longer than other creams I have used due to this fact.
How is it packaged?
The actual product itself comes in a white plastic bottle, size 125ml. To get the product out you flip the lid of the screw top and squeeze it out.
On the front the label is white with mostly green wording. Very natural and basic in style. The ' Simple ' logo at the top along with the statement 'UKs No1 with Multi Vitamins '. Beneath that its says product is kind to skin replenishing ' Rich Moisturiser '. Also mentions it works for 12 hours.
On the back it says what the product is supposed to do, in brief what it contains and doesn't contain which means its good and kind to the skin and how to use. Contact details for company also provided. Also product once opened has a 9 month shelf life.
The bottle the product comes in actually comes in a box. Look and design is exactly the same as on the bottle, except on the box it provides ingredients.
Aqua,Glycerin,Coco-Caprylate/Caprate,Polyglyceryl-3 Methylglucose Distearate,Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate,Stearyl Alcohol,Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane,Stearic Acid,Panthenol,Polyacrylamide,C13-14 Isoparaffin,Methylparaben,4-Methylbenzylidene Camphor,Bisabolol,Pentylene Glycol,Sodium Hydroxymethylglycinate,Laureth-7,Disodium EDTA,Propylparaben,Lactic Acid,Sodium Lactate,Serine,Sorbitol,Urea,Citric Acid,Sodium Chloride,BHT,Allantoin
How to use
Smooth gently into your face and neck using upward and outward movements.
Whats it supposed to do?
This moisturiser is supposed to keep skin hydrated, replenished and nourished in feel and touch all day.
How did I find it?
Ive slotted this into my routine by using it as a day cream. Firstly, I loved the huge size of 125ml. This meant I could afford to use alittle as it's a good decent size. It was easy to get out of the bottle, a simple squeeze. The more pressure added, the more product that would come out and visa versa.
The cream itself is white. I did expect it to be alittle more thicker than what it was as I felt it came out looking like a lotion, rather than a product that states to be a ' rich moisturiser ', but it wasn't too fluid so very easy to apply on the face.
The scent was very delicate, almost not there. Quite clean and fresh, no floral notes, very subtle and smelt more plant based. Definitely unisex in smell.
The moisturiser sank into the skin very well and quickly. I immediately felt my skin had been given a drink of water and felt very fresh and ' replenished '. I think the texture and how quickly it absorbed would make this a good product for a guy-no fuss, no hard work and easy to use!
The look of my skin wasn't greasy but looked slightly dewy. The texture to look at and feel, of my skin, was no different. I didn't expect there would be as I bought this for the replenishing claim, not for anything else e.g getting rid of spots, smoothing of skin etc.
I did feel that the immediate hydrating effect wasn't long lasting, as after an hour or so I felt like my skin wasn't as fresh in feel, but at the same time I didn't feel it was dry or needed a top up. The claim on the box saying it works for 12 hours I think is a major exaggeration, especially as it lasted afew hours for me.
What did I like about this product?
Easy to use and dried straight away. Skin looked healthy and had a slight gleam. Good size product. Doesn't contain artificial perfume or colour.
What did I not like about this product?
Needed fragrance to stand out more. Wouldve like product to have been a touch more thicker and more hydrating.
Would I buy this again? I actually think this is a good product. Price and size is fantastic and despite the fact it didn't provide the amount of hydration I needed for a longer period of time, I would still recommend it to other people, but at this stage in my skin journey I wouldn't buy again, but maybe at a later date when my skin is more ' normal ' and less dry. My skin has improved a lot over the last few months and a lot more manageable. I didnt realise that there was another alternative in this ranges face cream category which is actually called ' hydrating ', so I think this would be better suited for my skins needs.
Great product for most users but think I chose the wrong version. Needs to be alittle more hardworking for my skin. But not going to knock it because I have an awkward face that is coming out of a troublesome period, hence the score I have given.
Readily available.
I do not class myself as being loyal to any brand of skincare or beauty products and began using this moisturiser a couple of years ago after seeing both the light and rich moisturisers on offer in the supermarket. I have used both the light and the rich moisturiser and find them good for different times of the year as they both have their own attributes.
Simple products are all packaged in either white or green bottles, sometimes a combination of both, with the same colours used for the boxes. The bottles are plastic and are shaped well making holding and using easy. The bottle is white with a green flip-top lid and writing. The bottle gives you all the information you need about the moisturiser, what it includes, and how best to use the product. The moisturiser itself is white in colour and has a thicker texture than some moisturisers on the market. There is no smell to this moisturiser, which is something which appeals to me.
Use and Results
This moisturiser is easy to apply to your skin, its spreads evenly and does not leave a great deal on your fingers like some thick moisturisers do. It sinks quickly into your skin and does not leave a residue on your skin. It boasts that it contains "Pro-Vitamin B5, Glycerin, Bisabolol and Allantoin" which all should leave your skin feeling soft, nourished and cared for, and I have to say I agree, they definitely do their job. After application your skin feels soft and smooth, and this moisturiser is hydrating enough to leave even the driest of skin feeling nourished.
As it is a Simple product it is suitable for sensitive skin, my skin can sometimes be inflamed and red after showering and can feel a little tight but after applying this moisturiser it calms down, feeling soft and does not feel tight anymore. This moisturiser also boasts to providing UV filters and protection which is only a good thing in trying to help your skin feel and look youthful.
I purchased this moisturiser for £2 in Asda the other week, which is exceptionally cheap for the quality of the moisturiser, the results it provides and the length of time the 125ml bottle lasts; you only need to use a small pea-sized amount every day.
As a sufferer of sensitive skin, Simple has been long been a top choice for my skincare products. The Simple Rich Moisturiser is one of my favourites from their vast collection of products.
As typical of Simple products, this moisturiser has no scent. I prefer odourless skincare as I feel it is less artificial and more natural upon my skin, but for those who enjoy a pleasant smell as part of their skincare regiment, I'd suggest selecting another product.
The moisturiser itself is thick and white but massages into the skin to become colourless. It takes five to ten minutes to completely sink itno the skin, and for this reason, I'd suggest this moisturiser to be a night product - suitable for deep moisturisation over night.
As I have combination skin, I was worried this moisturiser would make my skin oilier and create more shine, and for the first few days I found this to happen. However, once my skin settled to the new regime I found my skin was no more oily than before and shine was reduced. I believe this moisturiser to be good for all skin types.
After less than a week I could see a difference in the appearance and texture of my skin. My skin was more radiant, blemishes were clearing and my skin felt more soft and supple.
For less than £4 for 125ml, I find this moisturiser to be great value for money, particularly in comparison to certain labels which charge hundreds of pounds for their serums and rich moisturisers.
A very good buy!
I often suffer from my dry patches of skin on my face, especially during the winter. I also suffer from sensitive skin so I wanted something that was going to be kind and gentle to my skin and wouldn't irritate it. I use a lot of the products in the Simple range including the light moisturiser but I wanted something a bit stronger for use in during the winter and cold months. I noticed Simple do a Rich Moisturiser so I decided to give this product a try.
The Product
= = = = = = =
The product comes is a rich moisturiser for vitamin goodness for naturally, healthy skin. Simple products contain no perfumes, colour or harsh chemicals so are suitable for very sensitive skin. The replenishing moisturiser is rich and gives 12hr moisturisation. The product contains Pro-Vitamin B5 which actively restores, softens and smoothes skin. It also contains 3 skin loving nutrients including Glycerin which hydrates and nourishes for 12hrs moisturisation, Bisabolol and Allantoin which soothe and protect the skin. The product is dermatologically tested and approved. The product comes in a plastic bottle which then comes in a box. The packaging is white and green which is the Simple colour on all their products. I don't personally see the point in the box; how-ever this can just be recycled anyway. The information on the box is the same information that can be found on the back of the bottle which gives you a list of ingredients, product information and how to use the product.
= = = = = = = = = =
I purchased this from my local Boots store for £3.29. You can also purchase this online from various different places and you can purchase it from supermarkets, pharmacies and Superdrug. Price may vary. This bottle comes in one size which is 125ml.
Using the Product
= = = = = = = = = =
For best results smooth gently into your skin and neck using upward and outward movements. Use with the Kind to Skin Moisturising Facial Wash. I use a lot of Simple products including the facial wash. I started using this particular product a few weeks ago and my skin has become a lot softer and hydrated. I apply the product every morning to ensure my skin stays looking good and feeling great all day. You need to flip the lid open and squeeze the bottle a little to dispense some of the moisturiser. The product itself is white in colour and isn't too thick but not to think either. There is so scent or smell to the product. As I applied the product to my skin it felt cool and soft and silky against my skin. I didn't use too much as a little bit of this seems to go a long away. My skin felt and look moisturised, espicially the dry patches which I sometimes suffer from. Throughout the day my skin felt great and it didn't feel dry at all, even working in an air conditioned office. I used this product every day and think my skin feels and looks in better condition that what it did before. The thing I like about the cream is that it's non-greasy and absorbs into the skin quite quickly.
Overall Opinion
= = = = = = = = =
I think this is another fantastic product from Simple and it lives up to its claims of keeping skin moisturised for up to 12 hours. The product is so simple and easy to use and my skin feels so much better since I have started to use it. I also think this product is fantastic value for money as a little bit of this goes a long way. Even though I used the product every day it's long lasting and will last at least 1 month if not longer. If you have sensitive skin and want a rich moisturiser, espicially in the cold winter months then I highly recommend this product as its kind and didn't irritate my skin. I will continue to use this product and will be purchasing some more when this one runs out. Another great product from Simple.

I've been a massive Simple fan ever since I found that heavily fragranced face products occasionally left me with awful hot, dry blotches across my face. This mainly happened with face wipes so after finding the Simple fragrance free wipes perfect for my skin I've practically given the whole range a go. Here is my experience with the Simple Replenishing Rich Moisturiser. :)
The bottle comes in a cardboard box as the picture above shows. I do admit that this seems like a pointless extravagance and doesn't really add much to the product. The ingredients are on the cardboard box though and not on the bottle which I found a bit annoying as I just looked at the bottle for the ingredients to write about and I found that they weren't on there.
Other than that, the small, plastic 125ml bottle features a simple (excuse the pun!) white and green design adding to it's natural, caring sort of feeling. The top screws off to expose a small hole where the product is easily squeezed out.
The product is very easy to apply and easily absorbed it. It is a bright white thin cream which despite being described as "rich" (which I was a little apprehensive about) is actually very light, soft and silky on the skin. The moisturiser itself is not fragranced or coloured, one of main features of Simple products, so instead has a subtle sort of typical lotion smell. It is neither pleasant or unpleasant and in fact disappears as soon as the moisturiser is applied.
I found this product to really moisturise my skin whether it was particularly dry or not. It absorbs very quickly and certainly did not leave my skin feeling sticky or greasy and some thicker moisturisers may do. It boasts 12 hour moisturisation, vitamin B5 and glycerin and I certainly agree that this product leaves my skin super soft and nourished.
It doesn't cause any irritation, even on sore skin, and even provides a good base for make up. Overall I am very impressed with this nifty little moisturiser, especially at the cheap as chips price of about £3-4.
I recently found that my local Bodycare store was selling the Simple skincare range at some very impressive prices, I bought a 200ml bottle of this Rich Moisturiser for £1.99 which is less than you can find it in Boots (though you may be able to find it for around this price online). I usually use a Body Shop daily moisturiser but had run out and it was the wrong end of the month to be spending £8 on another pot so this one was a handy choice.
The bottle comes in a box as shown in the picture above, I am not an advocate of extra packaging and do not see what this possibly adds to the product other than extra recycling to do - I wish they would just sell the bottles as they are. The bottle itself has a flip top and is squeezeable so you can easily get the product out, I actually find it comes out rather faster than I am expecting and it is very easy to dispense too much so do be careful!
The cream is unperfumed - which is one of Simple's signature features, it is meant to be very kind to skin and great for people with allergies, my skin is known to react to any changes in my skin care regime so I found this quite reassuring. As you would expect then, the cream does not smell of anything at all, it is not thick or sticky but feels silky and light between your fingers and is a bright white colour.
I was incredibly impressed with this product for the way it sank so quickly into my skin, it is so light and easy to apply and feels lovely on my skin, like a much more expensive product in fact. I really liked that within 5 minutes of applying my skin was feeling much more hydrated but not at all sticky or damp - which given the fact this is a 'rich' moisturiser was one of my concerns. I have had no reactions to this cream other than radiant and hydrated skin and therefore, to my mind, this is a range I will continue using while money is tight - it is fantastic value and a great product.
I have used both the light and rich moisturisers in the Simple range.
I bought this one last winter to protect my dry winter skin from the elements.
I paid £1.99 for my 100ml tube from Superdrug. The moisturiser is white in colour and it is fragrance free, although I could detect a very subtle hint of something in there. The texture of the moisturiser is much thicker compared to the lighter version. This was a good thing though as I was able to plaster this on without any trouble. The moisturiser was easy to rub into my skin. It soaked in without any trouble and I was able to apply powder foundation over the top of it. I also used it at night on bare skin.
Using this moisturiser during the winter was a God send. The moisturiser is really cooling and soothing and it works a treat for dry winter skin. Before using this my neck was starting to peel but this moisturiser saved my skin, literally. It's just perfect for dry skin. It transforms dry skin into soft, supple and soothed skin without irritating it even more. I have sensitive facial skin (hence why I shop at Lush so much) and this moisturiser is very mild and gentle. It's also chemical free so it doesn't clog the pores or cause spots and/ or blemishes.
This moisturiser saved my skin last winter. The only downside is that it doesn't contain an SPF factor. Even in the winter your skin could do with an SPF factor...
I'm not particularly loyal to brands of moisturiser, although I have a few favourites I'm happy to try whatever works out cheapest or is on offer. The past few times I've gone shopping for moisturiser, I've ended up with Simple ones because they've offered best value for money. The last one was their "Hydrating" moisturiser, and this time I ended up with the "Replenishing" one.
The packaging is exactly the same as the hydrating moisturiser, in fact I didn't even notice it was called something different until I got it home. It cost me around £2 for a 125ml bottle from Home Bargains.
The moisturiser is not perfumed or coloured, and has been dermatologically tested and approved to ensure it is gentle on your skin. Although I tend to shop by price, there are certain brands I know my skin won't react to, and Simple is one of them. Although I don't usually react to moisturisers, I do have sensitive skin so have to be careful what I use on it.
After using this, I wasn't too sure what the difference was between this and the hydrating moisturiser in the same range. The replenishing moisturiser claims to keep your skin replenished and nourished all day long, whereas the hydrating moisturiser claims to keep your skin replenished and hydrated. In my opinion, this is the same thing, so I'm not too sure why there is a need for two differently named moisturisers ultimately doing the same job.
This moisturiser has UV filters, which is good to know because I only ever apply suncream to my face on holiday abroad if I'm honest. So it's good to know that on those days the sun makes an appearance, my skin is being protected even if only a little bit.
This moisturiser is reasonably thick in consistency, but is more like a liquid than a cream. It feels like it's giving the face a good coating when it is applied, and takes a little while to sink in. I can't say I've noticed any difference between this and the other Simple moisturiser I was using, which makes me wonder why they produce so many these days when they effectively all do the same job.
This moisturiser makes me feel like my skin is being protected. I like the fact it takes a little time to sink in because it doesn't take ages, but it takes long enough to make me feel like it's achieving what it should be in terms of moisturisation. As with all these products, the effects of using won't be known until later life, but I'm a big believer in using anything to moisturise is better than using nothing, and I see no reason to splash out on expensive moisturisers that probably do the same job.
I have been suffering with dry skin on my face which was getting worse. The skin on my cheeks and forehead were very dry and it was beginning to flake off. My usual moisturiser was not making any difference even when I was using it twice a day, so I decided that I had to try something new. I rang a friend of mine to ask if she could recommend a product and she said to try anything in the Simple range.
I finally found a large range of Simple products in my local Superdrug, which for someone that hasn't used Simple products before was quite overwhelming. I looked at them all and decided to purchase their Kind To Skin Replenishing Rich Moisturiser. The reason I choose this one was because of the word Replenishing in the product name and that on the box it says that it gives 12 hour moisturisation.
The cost of this product was £2.91 for 125m. A quick search on the internet shows that the prices is £3.80 at tesco and £3.35 at Boots. So I'm very pleased with the price that I paid and I also gained two reward points.
The packaging, in my opinion, is just your bog standard squeezy type bottle that moisturisers generally come in. As with all the Simple range the writing and artwork are all in green. Luckily you have to squeeze the bottle to get the moisturiser out so you don't waste any by it all running out when you tip the bottle up.
As with all Simple products there is no perfume so there is no smell to the liquid and it is white in colour. The consistency is not runny but rubs into you face with the greatest of ease and soaks straight in without leaving any greasy residue on your face or fingers. This product goes a long way and you really do need to use only a small amount. For this reason alone this product is great value for money.
I used it the day I bought it and straight away my skin looked smoother, all the flakiness had disappeared and upon touching my face my skin felt extreamly soft and even looked brighter. After six hours my face still looked like I had just applied the moisturiser. The other test of this product came the following day when I was wearing foundation. As usual I applied my foundation after I had used moisturiser and the difference was unbelievable. My foundation glided on with the greatest of ease, there were no dry patches and the coverage was even. My foundation stayed in place all day.
I recommend this product to everyone as my skin has improved dramatically in such a short space of time that it looks like I have been using this moisturiser for many weeks not just a few days. I will now be purchasing more products in this range when I run out of my usual products.
I bought this because with all of the simple adverts claiming of its natural ingredients I thought that it would be a safe product to use on my face without worrying about breaking out but boy was I wrong!Acne acne acne, Thought this moisturizer was rather average to be honest, sure the lotion was rich but it felt too greasy, wouldnt use again it went in the bin.
Sometimes when I'm wanting to treat myself I spend a fortune on beauty products as I like to think that I am giving myself some luxury but actually I have found that sometimes it is the simple things that work the best and end up failing to disappoint and the Simple range is one which does just that. I have several items from this range and have been really pleased with what I have experienced from them so far.
This moisturiser comes in a very boring looking bottle, there is nothing special about it but that is what the Simple range is all about- simplicity. No fancy pictures, unique designs or exotic lids to contend with instead you know exactly what you're getting just by looking at it. It's a white, opaque tall and thin bottle with green writing and a green lid which you just pull off. It doesn't matter that it doesn't look anything special it's what it does and if it works that matters as far as I am concerned, for this price especially.
The lid pulls off to reveal a very small hole with which the moisturiser comes out of. The bottle isn't too hard so you can squeeze it to help get the cream out. I find that squeezing is the best technique, if you just hold the bottle upside down it can take a while/not come out at all because it is quite thick and the hole isn't very big. I put a cotton wool ball over the hole, hold it upside down and squeeze it. This makes only the amount of cream that I need to come out, if I didn't use a cotton wool ball I think I'd end up with excess amounts.
The moisturiser is quite thick and very cool so when you put it onto your skin it has a soothing effect. I have actually put this onto sunburn before and it has helped cool it down instantly as with sore, dry skin. I apply about a pea-sized amount onto my skin and this is usually enough to cover my face. It does take a while to massage in and it stays a bit 'sticky' on contact for a few minutes so I do have to leave it about ten minutes before putting any make up on. I tend to not use this if I am in a rush as it would then effect my make up.
I use this moisturiser twice a day as recommended and find that it helps to keep my skin soft and smooth. It has a faint smell but nothing dramatic just a slight fresh smell which doesn't stay on your skin once applied. It provides a good foundation for your make up too so long as you do leave it enough time to soak in.
I only use this on my face. I have sensitive skin but I have never found that this moisturiser has any negative effects at all so it must be very gentle. I recommend it, yes it could be better if it absorbed faster but I think for the price it is perfectly fine; £1.80 is what I paid for the bottle and I think that this is more than reasonable considering the prices you can pay for other brands.
With the help of Pro-Vitamin B5, this non greasy moisturiser will give you all day moisturisation for smoother, supple skin / It also contains UV filters to help protect and prevent premature ageing /

Edulearn Air Services Academy (Pvt) Ltd is a UK registered company established in October 2010, Affiliated with the globally recognised institute Air Service Training (AST) in Perth, Scotland, Edulearn imparts trainings to aircraft maintenance engineers and aviation personnel for the aviation industries in Pakistan, Middle East and other parts of the world.
During the Dubai Air Show in November 2013, Boeing forecasted a $550 billion market for new planes in the Middle East. This was further reiterated by a record $206.1 billion order from Emirates, Air Etihad and Qatar Airways. According to Boeing, this translates to 2,610 new planes over the next 20 years. But the bigger question was trying to understand where the skilled manpower for these new planes would come from.
Edulearn has followed and studied the stability and factors leading to this Middle East growth very carefully. As the Boeing Commercial Airplanes vice president of marketing Randy Tinseth puts it: "The Gulf region benefits from a unique geographic position that enables one-stop connectivity between Europe, Africa, Asia and Australasia. Additionally, over the last decade, we've seen a rise in low-cost carriers that have benefitted from a large youthful population, large migrant workforce and trends toward market liberalisation."
Globally, Boeing alone has forecast a long-term demand for 35,280 new airplanes, valued at $4.8 trillion.
In Pakistan, the aviation industry is also on a rise with an increase in fleets and addition of new airlines. The government is now moving towards encouraging investments in the aviation sector as the demand significantly rises globally.

Police report O'Neill was ejected from bar in July for trying to pick fight: Now charged with striking Dover man who later died
Saturday, April 13, 2013
DOVER — A man accused of attacking another patron at a Portsmouth bar last weekend — fracturing his skull and potentially causing his death — was ejected from a club in Dover approximately nine months earlier for trying to pick a fight on the dance floor, according to police records.
Gebers reported he could smell a "heavy odor of an alcoholic beverage" on the man's breath.
O'Neill never showed up, according to court records. He also skipped another hearing in October 2012, as well as a trial scheduled for Tuesday, April 2, leading the court to issue another bench warrant for his arrest.
Krantz, a 2006 Epping graduate, declined medical treatment and returned home to his apartment in Dover, where he was found dead several hours later. The state's medical examiner ruled that bleeding on the brain, caused by a skull fracture, was the cause of death.
Dover police have declined a request from Foster's for a copy of the police report affiliated with the traffic stop, citing the fact that his case has yet to be prosecuted. A trial date has been scheduled for June 17 in Strafford County.
