Far too restrained. Loans anywhere near 4.5 times income are lunacy.
WANDERING back from lunch down New Bond Street involves my passing dozens of shops with designer brands and shiny jewellery. Even as a middle class professional, I could never afford to buy anything. But no one would suggest it is up to the government (or the central bank) to make it possible for me to do so, especially by offering me cheap loans (bling bonds, perhaps).
Housing, one might say, is different; everybody needs somewhere to live. This is a legitimate area for government policy. If house prices are high relative to incomes (which they are) that would suggest that something is wrong with the supply. Propping up prices is not the solution. The right answer is to build more houses or more flats. If the private market is not doing so, that might be because of regulatory constraints (planning laws) which can be reformed. And if that fails (or is too slow) then the government could step in and build more houses itself. Let's call that "infrastructure" which is a very trendy theme at the moment. How many houses could you get for the cost of high-speed rail?
Instead what tends to happen in housing booms is that credit standards get relaxed, so that demand can keep up with prices. This happened in the US with teaser mortgages, ninja loans and the rest; it ends in disaster. Central banks can step in by raising interest rates to kill the boom but that inflicts collateral damage on the rest of the economy, which may be blameless. So the bright wheeze is macroprudential policy, using non-monetary measures to stem the tide. Hence the Bank of England's move today - first, lenders must stress test loans to see if the borrower could still afford to service their loans after a three percentage point rise and second, they should limit mortgages of more than 4.5 times income to no more than 15% of their new loans.
It all sounds fairly sensible on the surface, although one does wonder whether having any loans of more than 4.5 times incomes is right. But as Unicredit points out, it will have virtually zero impact
The limit on the number of high loan-to-income mortgages will not bite in the near term. In the year to 1Q14 the proportion of new mortgages at income multiples at or above 4.5 was around 10% – so well below the FPC's 15% cap. And the limit may never bite – between 2005-07 the proportion of new mortgages at income multiples at or above 4.5 was just 6.5%.
adding that
most lenders are currently using a 'stress' test for higher interest rates of 2.5-3 percentage points, so close to the FPC's 3pp recommendation.
Some might say that the whole approach is wrong. If a lender chooses to advance money to a borrower, what is that to do with the Bank of England? Restricting credit shuts poor buyers out of the market. But I don't think this is tenable. The 2007-2009 crisis shows the chaos that happens when a credit bubble bursts; the Bank must be more vigilant. When the government (and thus the taxpayer) stands behind the banks, a strategy of making risky bank loans can never be a purely private matter.
We must break the cycle of higher house prices followed by loose credit standards, followed by collapse. The problem is not that the Bank is thinking about doing that; it is that it has been far too timid. It is not just the Bank's problem, of course; the government should be starting a housebuilding programme, in partnership with the private sector, to redress the balance.

"If the private market is not doing so, that might be because of regulatory constraints (planning laws) which can be reformed."
~ Or it might be because a wage slave is not meant to be part of the landed gentry, neither being gentrified nor granted access to the land. Indeed, if capitalist sought competition they wouldn't be capitalist. If parasites could be symbiotic the host wouldn't die from tilling the land. In which case you'd have a shepherd, flock relationship instead of a venereal disease.
Doug I had no idea! I had no idea at all that you were a poet as well as a scholar. Indeed the tragedy of the commons lends rightness to private ownership for the preservation of the land. The preservation of the land, not because humans eat the commons but because the commons are eaten by cattle and cattle are eaten by humans. Without the humans to eat the cows and the cows to eat the commons...
Well... well the greenness of the grass or the lack there of is entirely irrelevant isn't it? It's know sweat off anyone's back and you'll have a hard time proving greenness minus eyeballs. Trees falling in the woods and all. What wasn't I'm trying to say Doug? Well... I guess, absent the human the commons aren't the commons and tragedy isn't tragic. The state of the commons cannot be divorced from the state of the society. A clod washed from the shore of Normandy and Europe is the less. Don't ask for whom the bell tolls because it tolls for thee. A mans death reduces me as I am involved in mankind. The poverty of my society is the poverty of myself within that society. I cannot profit from the tragedy of others forever just as the commons cannot support overgrazing for long. Both the commons and my soul will turn brown and die.
While private ownership is absolutely important. It's important because of society not because of the individual. Capitalism that extorts society for the profit of the individual? Well... That's just ass backwards that all.
Has the Bank been too timid? Or has the Bank made an initial policy which is unlikely to bother banks because it won't impact them.
And then, when the policy has been in place without objection for a while, the Bank can change the limits, but not the policy itself. And any complaints can be greeted with: "Why are you complaining now? This policy has been in place for a long time. And this change is no more substantive than a change to interest rates would be -- and nobody in the banking industry gets hysterical about that."
Wait... Wait... now that my internet is working again it appears that no man is an island entire unto himself. Here is what Jonne has to say:
"No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main... We cannot call this a begging of misery, or a borrowing of misery, as though we were not miserable enough of ourselves, but must fetch in more from the next house, in taking upon us the misery of our neighbours. Truly it were an excusable covetousness if we did, for affliction is a treasure, and scarce any man hath enough of it. No man hath affliction enough that is not matured and ripened by and made fit for God by that affliction. If a man carry treasure in bullion, or in a wedge of gold, and have none coined into current money, his treasure will not defray him as he travels. Tribulation is treasure in the nature of it, but it is not current money in the use of it, except we get nearer and nearer our home, heaven, by it. Another man may be sick too, and sick to death, and this affliction may lie in his bowels, as gold in a mine, and be of no use to him; but this bell, that tells me of his affliction, digs out and applies that gold to me: if by this consideration of another's danger I take mine own into contemplation, and so secure myself, by making my recourse to my God, who is our only security."
So apparently no man is an island separate unto himself. Your suffering is mine as the weight of gold burdens a traveler that has not converted it to currency so that it may have use. Your suffering is my suffering and this affliction... according to mister Donne... is your treasure! In heaven no less!
Before advocating a large scale house-building programme, isn't there a rather larger question that you ought to address viz what is the fundamental difference between an undersupply of housing and an oversupply of people? There seem to be two sides to this ledger and you have chosen only to address one - an unusually unbalanced approach for The Economist.
It's an accident waiting to happen…
One quibble: Propping up prices is not the solution. The right answer is to build more houses or more flats.
Those two statements are more complicated and not as directly related as they seem. Governments do tend to intervene to support nominal house prices, because of the possible electoral fallout. What the UK has been doing for years, however, is sustaining the bubble and thus preventing the market from setting prices. Without intervention loan-to-value ratios cannot continue to rise indefinitely and at some point, in some places, prices will fall to stimulate demand. This is particularly important to stop high property prices either acting as a tax on employment or feeding wage inflation. The cost for all manners of services of all kinds should rise with property prices can in turn act as brake: if you can't find any teachers or nurses or police officers or bin men for your area, it may quickly become less desirable.
Therefore, building more houses is not the only alternative. In general, there rarely is ever only one alternative.
OK, but I'm still an island, right?
An open meadow, green and thick
Makes every shepherd wild
To gather his whole wooly flock
And graze the free land mild.
But where one herdsman tarries
The land will soon be full
Of other shepherds gathered
To deplore the price of wool.
And soon they bring their flocks and kin
To reap each blade, leaf, root and feather
And gather up to drink rum
And to predict the weather.
So once the lea has been stripped bare
And no-one's left for thanking,
The flock is left to starve or
Follow graziers into banking.
The tragedy's a common one,
Cultivated from these roots:
Too many open ovine mouths
Near surplus farmers' boots.
Funny, I agreed with your reasoning until the end. Shouldn't the government be reforming construction law to allow private markets for housing to clear?
Well, heck. I'm going with Blake on this one.
To get lower house prices, raise interest rates to 10%. I guarantee house prices will fall dramatically.
I'm in favour of macroprudential policy in this case. The UK has it's own specific issues, lack of supply of property nationally and London operating as a country within a country. High speed rail may deliver capital and people to locations where the private sector can find capacity to build new homes btw.
But without interest rates as the fundamental stabilizer we'll be trying to fly a plane with no tail by trimming the flaps.
"WANDERING back from lunch down New Bond Street involves my passing dozens of shops with designer brands and shiny jewellery. Even as a middle class professional, I could never afford to buy anything."
Seriously? Not even a tie or belt from Zegna?
A similar situation exists in the states. There are a plethora of McMansions that only the gentry can afford, and a paucity of modest abodes for the majority. The McMansions sit empty, since there are not enough gentry to buy them. Meanwhile, children move back in with their parents because they can't find affordable abodes.
The market is not building the right mix of products for the market. A combination of price manipulation by bankers, and a simultaneous attempt by school districts to gentrify nearly the entire country. (Teachers want raises.)
A feedback loop. Printing removes purchasing power from school district revenue (creates super inflation in education and other service prices). Then teachers attempt to gentrify the district to make up for purchasing power that printing has removed. Banks then print additionally to fund cheap loans for McMansion construction, even though no one will buy the newly constructed McMansions. This creates more inflation in education, and the so on.
Seniors are caught in the crossfire, as bank pursue their de facto printing war on their elders. The young are also being de facto targeted by bankers. Youngsters have incredible student loans due to education super inflation, and then can't find an abode they can afford when they graduate.
The good news for bankers is that bankers are getting rich via the printing press during this process. Even though the majority is going backward because of printing.
I mean as a first step.

Two girls get punished by Sir B in this production. The first girl is a regular of his, and the second is new to his training.
Sir B ropes up the first girl by her hair, tongue, tits and arms. He clamps her pussy lips and attaches clothespins to her nipples. Then he uses a whip to snap the clothespins and clamps off of her. The first girl is still roped up when Sir B drags in the second girl by the hair. He yells at her, ties her up, fingers her pussy and flogs her. The first girl ends up in a stockade and with pins stuck in her flesh and the word "slut" written in blood on her back.

Cold sores are small and painful blisters that can appear around the mouth, face, or nose. Sometimes referred to as fever blisters, they're caused by herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1). Kids can get cold sores by kissing or sharing eating utensils with an infected person.
Colds sores in the mouth are very common, and many kids get infected with HSV-1 during the preschool years. The sores usually go away on their own within about a week.
Most kids who get cold sores get infected by eating or drinking from the same utensils as someone who is infected with the herpes virus or by getting kissed by an infected adult.
The cold sores first form blisters on the lips and inside the mouth. The blisters then become sores. In some cases, the gums become red and swollen. In other cases, the virus also leads to a fever, muscle aches, eating difficulties, a generally ill feeling, irritability, and swollen neck glands. These symptoms can last up to 2 weeks.
After a child is initially infected, the virus can lie dormant without causing any symptoms. But it can reactivate later, typically after some sort of stress like other infections, fever, sunlight, cold weather, menstrual periods, or even before a big test at school. When the virus is reactivated, it can cause tingling and numbness around the mouth before blisters appear.
Usually, HSV-1 causes cold sores in the mouth or face, and herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) causes lesions in the genital area, resulting in genital herpes. But sometimes, HSV-1 can cause genital lesions as well, especially if someone has received oral sex from an infected partner.
Cold sores from HSV-1 usually go away in about a week. Although no medications can make the infection go away, some treatments are available that can shorten the length of the outbreak and make the cold sores less painful.
Cool foods and drinks can help relieve discomfort, and acetaminophen may also ease the pain. Aspirin should not be given to kids with viral infections since it has been associated with Reye syndrome.
Call the doctor if your child:
Since the virus that causes cold sores is so contagious, it's important to prevent it from spreading to other family members. Precautions to take with kids who have cold sores include:
If you're caring for a child with a cold sore, you also should be sure to wash your hands frequently so that you don't contract the virus or spread it to others.

Showhouse gets guests thinking of renovation
As if they always had lived in castles, 300 pretenders took occupancy of one in Clifton at the Cincinnati Ballet's Designer Showhouse 2001 opening gala Friday . The rooms of the castle acted as blank canvasses for local interior designers to showcase their work.
Some guests considered which buildings they would choose to renovate. A sampling:
When Donna Wymore, Indian Hill, visited her son at Washington and Lee University in Lexington, Va., she spoted an abandoned antebellum mansion she would like to rescue.
Barbara Kellar, Hyde Park, would love to say, "Abracadabra,' and make the Piatt Garden House (her former residence) reappear. The historic home on Grandin Road was torn down.
Event co-chairwoman Cynthia Muhlhauser, Indian Hill, would choose the Hearst Castle at San Simeon, Calif. I would dig through the archives and display stuff the public has never seen.
Event co-chairwoman Sherie Marek, Indian Hill, discovered an empty warehouse off I-71 near the William Howard Taft exit. She would love to create a loft on the top floor with a roof garden.
Showhouse co-chairwoman Danya Karram, Indian Hill, would choose the Palace of Versailles. I'd try to bring it into the 21st century. It needs a modern kitchen and maybe a media center.
Designer Showhouse 2001 will run 10 a.m.-5 p.m daily (until 8 p.m. Thursdays) through May 27. Information: 947-8226.
The showhouse is produced by BRAVO, the volunteer fund-raising committee of the Cincinnati Ballet.

text: Nobody ever thinks, "Hey, I want to be a brain surgeon," and takes up a scalpel and starts cutting. Lots of people, including too many celebrities, think they can write poems, short stories and novels without too much effort. Worse, publishers actually buy their work, just because their name is Snooki and they've been on reality television. You don't need to go to college or a master of fine arts program to be a writer. You don't need a certificate or license to write. Common men and women have written great literature. Of all the arts, writing is the most accessible. If our schools have done the job right, we all graduate with the ability to write coherent sentences. Being a writer? Trust those of us who make our living at the craft of words: it's not as easy as it seems. To be a good writer you have to read that's essential and you have to write, write and write again. Most of all, you have to be willing to do the hard work and make the commitment. You have to dare to put thoughts on paper. Today, the Homer News and the Homer Council on the Arts honors those who have done the hard work, made the commitment and dared. We're proud to announce the winners of the 19th Kenai Peninsula Writers' Contest, a collaboration between the News and HCOA. (See the full list of winners on page 9). From new writers in kindergarten to elders, writers and poets took the time to create and enter more than 360 pieces of literary art. Congratulations. You took the risk not only to let others read your work but also to judge it. For those who won, congratulations, and for those who entered, thanks for daring. We know the exhilaration of winning and the disappointment of losing. Ask any writer about trying to get published, and you'll hear tales of woe. One writer we know was almost ready to give up. She burned her rejection slips, which must have worked, because a few months later she sold her first novel. This week, and for the next two weeks, the Homer News publishes the winners in each age category for fiction, nonfiction and poetry. Honorable mentions will be printed online in PDF format at www.homernews.com. You can print those stories out for reading without computers or, if you have one of the new e-book readers like the iPad, Nook or Kindle, in an electronic edition. Contests like this are only the start of what we hope will become long and satisfying careers for these writers. Even if you don't make the New York Times bestseller list, we hope Kenai Peninsula writers will take satisfaction in continuing to perfect their art. We'd also like to honor those writers and poets without whom this contest couldn't happen: the judges both on and off the Kenai Peninsula. They took time in their busy lives to evaluate the contest entries and encourage new writers. That's the most precious gift strangers taking an interest in our writers and poets. Thank you for helping us out, and when you do visit Homer, stop by so we can thank you in person. Even as publishing goes through great transformations, writing endures. Today we honor those who keep literature alive. We wish you great success as you keep on writing and writing, writing, writing.

Five-Star Care for Creatures
Great and Small
Not only is this type of treatment good for the rodents, it also preserves the quality of critical research designed to ferret out the mysteries behind Parkinson's disease, glaucoma, spinal cord injury, addiction and countless other conditions. Overseeing the animals is Lindsay Barnes, director of laboratory animal management, who arrived last April brimming with the desire to make Johns Hopkins the cleanest, most humane and efficient animal care center in the country. The demands of her newly created position, born out of a renewed and aggressive commitment to animal care and welfare, include developing standardized husbandry practices (food, water, bedding and sanitation), promoting top-quality physical and social environments for the animals, and keeping meticulous records. Barnes is now instrumental in upholding Hopkins' animal welfare accreditation from the Association for the Assessment and Accreditation of Laboratory Animal Care (AAALAC) International, a voluntary body that promotes the humane treatment of animals in science. (JHM's animal research program received full accreditation this year and is now preparing for the next site visit in 2006.) She brings more than two decades of diverse animal research experience honed at academic institutions such as Memorial Sloan-Kettering and Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York and federal bodies such as NASA and the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Here are excerpts from a conversation in which she outlines her vision for laboratory animal care. Q: What were some of the challenges you faced when you arrived last year? A: Johns Hopkins has many satellite facilities sprinkled over East Baltimore, Homewood and Bayview Medical Center, plus a farm in rural Maryland. As a result, there has been some variation in husbandry practices. I wanted to develop standard operating procedures for all animal caretakers, whether they're working in the Broadway Research Building or at the Asthma and Allergy Center at Bayview. An even greater challenge has been eliminating conventional facilities and educating the research community about the importance of doing so. For decades, many investigators have done their research with conventional animals, or those whose health is unprotected. We're working to abandon the antiquated facilities that offer no health protection barrier between the animals and the outside environment. A third challenge has been building a community that includes investigators, veterinarians, animal caretakers and Facilities, so we can all work together to improve animal care, produce top-quality research and develop future animal facilities. The ultimate goal is to have investigators conduct their research in central, disease-controlled environments that are maintained with the trained expertise of our animal caretakers and supervisors. Q: How have you promoted animal health? A: I've been reaching out to the researchers and encouraging them to adhere to strict sanitation standards in their labs. We have packets of information outlining good housekeeping practices in labs as well as ways to continue their research while they transition from conventional rodents to hearty, healthy research stock. Then, they can replace their conventional colonies with clean mice from our newly established clean facilities. The mice we keep there are certified clean by the vendors and receive sterile feed, water and bedding. Our caretakers change the cages in a sterile hood and spray disinfectant between each cage change. Once the clean mice have been in an investigator's laboratory, they don't return to the clean facility. They go to our new high-risk return room in Central Animal Facilities. Because we can't be certain that labs are truly disease-free even after investigators have cleaned them, we consider the mice high-risk. In the high-risk return room, each lab group has its own section of mouse cages. There, we can monitor the mice for contamination without exposing them to other groups' clean mice. More and more, we're discouraging investigators from keeping animals in their labs. I'm asking them for input on how Central Animal Facilities can accommodate their specialized needs and equipment—huge sound chambers, vibration free tables, certain microscopes and the like—so that ultimately, they can conduct their research within our environmentally controlled areas. Q: How are you standardizing care practices? A: We use the Guide for Care and Use of Lab Animals (published by the National Research Council) as a guideline for the basics. It covers the cage space requirements, numbers of animals per cage, square footage for the larger species, feedings—everything. Our accreditation is based on the same standards. Q: What about open communication? A: It's important that the animal caretakers know what the investigators are doing, and what signs and symptoms they're looking for, so they can notify the investigator or their supervisor when they see it. After all, the caretakers are the first line of defense—they spend significant time observing the animals on a daily basis. Our 80 caretaking and cage-wash personnel participate in American Association for Laboratory Animal Science (AALAS) certification classes and special topics training each week. I conduct weekly meetings with our 10 supervisors, four postdocs, four veterinarians and two veterinary technicians, plus Chris Newcomer, the associate provost of Animal Research and Resources. That way, everyone hears everything firsthand to minimize miscommunication through word of mouth. Q: What's a chief goal for the future? A: I'd like to have my 10 animal care supervisors teach the husbandry staff even better attention to detail. With more than 18,000 mouse cages in the BRB alone, it's hard to examine each cage for health status, food and water. But we have to apply this kind of detail every single day. Successful research depends on it. —Lindsay Roylance

LITTLE ROCK — The Women's Committee from Washington County is again Arkansas Farm Bureau's top women's group for 2011. The committee won its fourth consecutive Outstanding County Women's Program award Thursday, Dec. 1, during Farm Bureau's 77th Annual Conference at the Peabody Hotel and Statehouse Convention Center in Little Rock.
Querita Faddis accepted the award for Washington County.
Each year, Arkansas Farm Bureau honors the county Women's Committee that exhibits exemplary support of its county organization, activities and goals. Farm Bureau women help accomplish the organization's mission by working with local schools, educating children about agriculture and where they get their food, fiber and fuel. From a variety of Ag in the Classroom activities to informing people how safe and affordable our food is, the women of Farm Bureau enthusiastically represent the organization by telling the farming story.
Farm Bureau also recognized its Sew With Cotton Contest winners, Brenda Sandage of Batesville (Independence County) and Nicole Foster of Viola (Fulton County). There were 29 contestants in the competition.
Sandage earned the Adult Sweepstakes win and Foster, 14, took the Youth Sweepstakes. Sandage had earlier won the Adult Dress category and Foster, the Youth Dress category. She is a freshman at Viola High School and is the daughter of Chad and Jamie Foster.
Both take home Husqvarna serger sewing machines, and each won $400.
Competition sponsors included Arkansas Farm Bureau and the University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture Cooperative Extension Service in cooperation with Family & Consumer Science Teachers.

Conway, who this week was named to replace Ana Beatriz as the driver of Dale Coyne Racing's No. 18 car, led for 47 laps and finished 13 seconds ahead of defending IndyCar champion Ryan Hunter-Reay.
The 29-year-old Briton, who didn't compete at last week's Indianapolis 500, won for the first time since April 2011 when he triumphed on the street circuit in Long Beach, Calif., while driving for Andretti Autosport.
Conway also secured the pole position for Sunday's second race, giving the Dale Coyne team its first pole.
Coyne teammate Justin Wilson finished third Saturday on the 2.36-mile, 13-turn Belle Isle circuit.
Defending Detroit champ Scott Dixon took fourth.
Helio Castroneves grabbed the lead in the IndyCar point standings with a sixth-place run.

Thanks for the clarification.
On your last question, I think that usually makes no physical sense
for environmental data where I have most experience. I am straining to
imagine that it is anything other than horribly ad hoc in any
On dummies for outliers: better than dropping them; good if there is
some independent rationale.
One definition of an outlier is that it surprises the analyst, and the
best outcome is to think of a model in which the surprise disappears.
Working on a logarithmic scale is so far as I can see the best trick,
if not the oldest. (Thucydides recorded the use of the mode as a
robust estimator, alhough not quite in those words, about 2400 years

Jack Rodwell takes positives from Liverpool match
Jack Rodwell believes Manchester City have nothing to worry about despite nearly losing to Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday. City twice came from behind to earn a point but were gifted their late equaliser by a poor backpass from Martin Skrtel which fell to the lethal Carlos Tevez.'It showed great character to come back from being behind twice and Carlos scored a great goal,' said Rodwell.
Incident: Jack Rodwell was penalised for handball
'We have to keep grinding these points out away from home, especially at places like Anfield and we'll just take away the positives from today.'He came on as a second-half substitute and conceded the free-kick which Luis Suarez converted to put Liverpool 2-1 up.'It was difficult to adapt to the new system but I think the lads did well,' said the central midfielder.'In the first 30 minutes we dominated the game and we got back into it in the second half, so we have to take the positives from that.'When the 21-year-old was asked if he had handled the ball when the referee penalised him for Suarez's free-kick, he said: 'I'm not sure, I just slid in and I know it hit my chest but I'll have to watch the video.'

In the earliest years of the Department, students in the regular four year degree program comprised no more than ten percent of the enrollment, with the remainder classified as "special students." Special students, a number of whom were employed in architects' offices, enrolled in a shorter course of study lasting a year or two. Many of the special students had already earned baccalaureate degrees in liberal arts or applied science. Some stayed at MIT just long enough to prepare themselves for an office career, while others, including Arthur Rotch, class of 1873, attended the Institute in anticipation of completing their training at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts.
The Institute's special students went on to have more distinguished careers than the four year graduates of this period. This is perhaps due to their practical experience in local firms, or because of the broadening influence of their previous undergraduate work or their subsequent training at the Ecole. During the 1880s and 1890s, MIT alumni formed some of the better-known firms in late 19th-century Boston, such as Rotch & Tilden. Other firms like Chamberlin & Austin benefited from an informal network of communication between alumni. Several graduates of the program would become public architects, while others gained reputations as principals of locally or nationally prominent firms. Many held significant positions as head draftsman or office managers in major firms. Alumni who became educators include H. Langford Warren, a special student from 1877-79 and founder, in 1893, of the Department of Architecture at Harvard. Some students went on to hold lectureships at major universities, while others made their careers in publishing.
Since the founding of the Department, an effort was made to retain the best examples of student work, as was the practice at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts. Illustrations of successfully completed student projects and drawings prepared for theses were collected and Ware stipulated that these projects should be hung on studio walls until displaced by student work from the following year. Of the 14 students who completed the four year program during Ware's tenure, four are represented in this exhibition. William Dowse, class of 1874, and Charles Baker, class of 1878, never practiced architecture. Henry Phillips, class of 1873, went on to Paris for further training but devoted his career more to the practice of civil engineering than architecture, as did Charles Wilkes, class of 1881.

Kimin (Arunachal Pradesh): The Indo-Tibetan Border Police on Friday said there was no report of any intrusion by China into the territory of Arunachal Pradesh in the last two years.
"There is no report of any such intrusion into the Indian territory in the past two years. The Indo-China border is peaceful and there is no hostile activities from either side," ITBP DG Ranjit Sinha said in reply to a query on a media report on Chinese activities along the LAC.
He said the Indian perception of the LAC was different from Beijing`s and there was no breach of trust between the two parties.
"Troops from both sides occasionally visit the LAC as a regular exercise to get themselves acquainted with the environment. We conduct border personnel meetings at regular intervals to develop trust and friendship between both the neighbouring countries," he said.
The ITBP, raised as a guerrilla-cum-intelligence-cum- fighting force in the wake of Chinese aggression in 1962, at present has 50 battalions of which 20 are deployed on the Indo-China border.
"The force, which was converted to an armed force in 1976, mans the 3,488 km Indo-Tibet border from Karakoram Pass in Ladakh to Jachep-La in Arunachal Pradesh at altitudes ranging between 9000 and 18,700 feet," Sinha added.

K.C. Reddy, Chairman of the Rajiv Education and Employment Mission (REEM), on Saturday called upon the official machinery to meet the government's expectations in implementing the Rajiv Yuvakiranalu scheme, meant for providing employment opportunities to the jobless youths.
Review meet
Speaking at a review meeting here, he reiterated the government's commitment for poverty alleviation by addressing the problem of unemployment effectively.
He said the State government had programmed to create 15 lakh jobs by 2015 in both private and public sectors as part of the mission.
The government did not let its mission be diluted regardless of an adverse situation in the industry on the jobs front as a result of the worst-ever economic recession looming large over the world, said Mr. Reddy.
He said a separate wing was established under the control of the REEM to provide an interface between the industry and the job-seekers on a regular basis.
Efforts were afoot to train over 60,000 unemployed youths by March this year through employment training centres so as to equip themselves with the industry requirements in terms of job skills.
Earlier, Mr. Reddy visited an employment training centre at Narsapur. Y. Ramakrishna, Project Director, District Rural Development Agency, conducted the review meet.

Singgih S. Kartono, Magno Wooden Radio.
The winning entries in each category of the Brit Insurance Design Awards 2009, awarded to the most progressive and forward thinking designs from the past 12 months, are: New Oslo Opera House for Architecture, Vogue Italia: A Black Issue for Fashion, MYTO chair for the Furniture category, and the Graphics category is awarded to the Barack Obama Poster. Interactive goes to Make Magazine, Magno Wooden Radio wins Product and the Transport winner is Colombias Line-J Medellin Metro Cable.
Brit Insurance Designs of the Year exhibition run until 14 June 09 and the awards ceremony takes place on 18 March at the Design Museum ,
The winning entries represent a snapshot of contemporary design and demonstrate the role that design plays at a global level. Ranging from Shepard Faireys iconic Obama poster, to the economically sustainable Magno Wooden Radio and the multi-functional landmark of the New Oslo Opera House, the international winners are spread across Indonesia, Colombia, USA, Norway and Italy.
The seven winning designs will now contend for the prestigious accolade of Brit Insurance Design of the Year 2009, to be revealed at an awards dinner hosted by Channel 4 design presenter Naomi Cleaver, at the Design Museum on 18 March.
The panel of judges, chaired by Alan Yentob, had a difficult undertaking in selecting just one winner in each category from such a diverse collection of entries. Yentob was joined by MoMAs senior design and architecture curator Paola Antonelli, designer, environmentalist and educator Karen Blincoe, architect Peter Cook, fashion author, stylist and critic Sarah Mower and last years winner, designer Yves Béhar. The panel commented, We were captivated by the stories behind the winning projects and how they demonstrate the strength of design as a tool for cultural, political and social change.
The winning designs, along with the rest of the shortlist, are currently on show at the Design Museum until 14 June.
Deyan Sudjic, Director of the Design Museum said: The judges had an exceptionally challenging role in selecting seven category winners from such a comprehensive shortlist. This years winners are a true reflection of the exceptional calibre of design that has been conceived internationally in the past 12 months.
The Category Winners and Judges Quotes
New Oslo Opera House, Norway
Client: Ministry of Church and Cultural Affairs
The Norwegian National Opera and Ballet, in Oslo is located on the Bjørvika Peninsula overlooking the Oslofjord. The design by Snøhetta won the international competition in 2000 with the plans to provide Norway with a landmark building, offering a stage to showcase Norwegian culture. Also at the centre of urban redevelopment, it now provides a new dynamic public space, attractive for visitors as well as an area for locals to enjoy. The building features dramatic angles that literally dive into the fjord, allowing the visitor to take in the entire structure from ground level as well as appreciating the views as they ascend to the top of the building. The structure also combines a series of architectural features created in collaboration with a number of artists.
The judges commented, This is more than a beautifully designed building and an opera house; its a living part of the city, a place for music, but also an outdoor space, somewhere all kinds of people like to go. Its mix of indoor and outdoor spaces attracts not just opera enthusiasts. It's a building that gives people the chance to roam through, across and on top of it, all the way from sea to roof level.
Italian Vogue: A Black Issue, July 2008
Vogue Italia, published by Condé Nast
In July 2008, Italian Vogue dedicated an entire issue to black models focussing on successful, black women. The editor, Franca Sozzani entitled the magazine: A Black Issue, featuring some of the leading black models within the fashion industry and editorial celebrating influential women in the arts and entertainment industries. It coincided with the US presidential campaign and was at a time when American protest groups demonstrated about the lack of black models in the fashion industry. This inspired Italian Vogue to elevate the debate and make it more public. The feedback was overwhelming, mainly positive, where newsstands from Milan to New York were inundated, with an increase in sales by 40%. Despite some critics view that A Black Issue was nothing else but a cynical sales campaign by Vogue Italia, sold and distributed in a country still challenged by racism, most felt it was a tribute to black people achieving equal goals to their non-black counterparts.
The judges commented, Deemed a cultural watershed, A Black Issue firmly placed the debate about the lack of black models in the fashion industry to the very forefront of the fashion world's consciousness as well as causing wide spread debate outside fashion circles. Steven Meisel and Franca Sozzani created an issue that truly captivated an audience much wider than the regular fashion reader's mind, where young black women finally felt that they could relate and aspire to the content through the people portrayed. The issue has undoubtedly raised questions amongst consumers and critics as to how casting agencies and other fashion promoters include non-white models in their portfolios and magazines, as it's now proven that 'black' does sell.
MYTO Chair, Italy
Designed by Konstantin Grcic
Commissioned by BASF, Manufactured by Plank
The team at Konstantin Grcics studio collaborated with the Italian furniture producer Plank and chemical company BASF to create the MYTO Chair. Reinterpreting the typology of the cantilever chair, it was designed primarily as a manufactured chair that utilises BASFs engineered plastics. The design development took place within the space of one year, during which Grcic experimented with the creative potential of the material Ultradur® High Speed (PBT polybutylene terephthalate) and as a result found that the materials properties shaped the final form. Its extraordinary consistency, strength, viscosity and thermoforming abilities meant that the fluid plastic could be injected into a monoblock. The supporting frame would harden and conform to the perforated seat and back, dissolving seamlessly into the net-like perforations of the structure, presenting an elegant transition from thick to thin cross-sections.
The judges commented, It is tough creating a design classic, but the MYTO might just have achieved this through its rigorous experimentation and research, resulting in the technically very difficult outcome of a cantilevered plastic chair. It is a successful balance, a sense of functional purpose and elegance, the result of a partnership between designer, manufacturer and BASF's engineers.
Barack Obama Poster, USA
Designed by Shepard Fairey
Shepard Fairey is a street artist renowned for his prolific fly posting of propaganda style artwork and Andre The Giant Icon images and to date has attracted a large international following. As an industry leader, Fairey was commissioned by the initiative Artists for Obama and the Inaugural Committee to create limited edition work for sale in order to raise money and awareness for Obamas 2008 Presidential Campaign. Based on the image taken by the Pulitzer Prize winning photographer David Turnley, the initial Obama posters created by Fairey were the PROGRESS and HOPE images. Then, working on his own initiative, Fairey used both these images as part of an unofficial viral poster campaign to help bring awareness to Obamas Presidential Campaign. The artwork was then iterated to create more posters with the words CHANGE and VOTE to further spread the candidates message and meet the incredible demand for the artwork. The posters demonstrate the cultural momentum surrounding Obama and his campaign.
The judges commented, If there ever were to be a The Poster of the Year, the Obama Poster would be it. The US election was a watershed in contemporary history and this poster demonstrates the power of communicating ideas and aspirations from grass-root level. Just as the presidential candidate's campaign speeches recaptured the lost art of oratory, so this poster breathed new life into a form that had lost its purpose. Fairey's poster came not from a marketing campaign, but as a self initiated fund raising campaign. The poster did its job by becoming a collector's item. More than that its encapsulated the mood of its time.
Make Magazine, USA
Published by OReilly
The first magazine devoted entirely to DIY technology projects, MAKE Magazine unites, inspires and informs a growing community of resourceful people who undertake amazing projects in their backyards, basements, and garages.
The judges commented, Make Magazine is a website and blog that has created a remarkable resource through which to explore the process of making. It is much more sophisticated than your everyday DIY website; Make Magazine presents you with unusual blueprints in which the users own input and customisation are both of practical and social value.
Magno Wooden Radio, Indonesia
Concept and design by Singgih S Kartono
Manufactured by locals in Java
The Magno wooden radio is a small and simple radio, encased in a shell of wood is an example of Indonesian entrepreneurship and design employing local manufacturing resources. Singgih Susilo Kartono is the creative brains behind this idea, designing the radio to help revive the economic conditions and employment prospects of Kandangan. His intention through this project was to try and change the villagers dependency on cities and create a community that was more reliant on local services. As a result the villagers adopt a new set of craft skills, including carpentry that can be passed on. They also use locally sourced sustainable materials helping to sustain economic conditions within the area.
Line-J Medellin Metro Cable, Colombia
Designed and Manufactured by Poma, France
Client: Metro de Medellin Ltda.
Medellin City in Colombia is setting an example of how the traditional cable car mainly used in skiing resorts is also a means of transportation in an urban environment. With the introduction of the J-line Metro Cable to the Medellin Metro network, people living in the hillsides can gain access to the city in a convenient manner; its a service that enables the poorer suburban communities to travel in an efficient and environmentally friendly manner. The French supplier of the cable cars, Pomo, have designed the cable cars for the J-Line to compliment its use as well as its landscape to such an acclaim that the United Nations is reviewing the concept to be implemented as part of a wider sustainable transportation scheme.
The judges commented, This is a great example of how to re-appropriate an already successful cable car envisaged for ski slopes, into a mass transit system for the urban poor. Medellin's favellas spread over hill sides too steep to be built on by the middle classes. They were isolated, in sight of the city centre, but with no easy means of reaching it. The cable car metro line changes all that, and provides an intriguing new form of public transport. The judges commented, The beautiful Wooden Radio shows clear respect for the material it uses and sensibility to details. More than that, the radio reflects a sense of purpose in the wider design context. The designer has brought together local crafts people, teaching them new skills in making and assembling the radio and by using local wood, has brought a positive and sustainable infrastructure to a small community.
