National Geographic to air live special from International Space Station
January 9, 2014 - 21:48 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - National Geographic Channel is heading into outer space. The Hollywood Reporter has learned that the cable network is set to air a live special from the International Space Station and Mission Control in Houston in March, the entertainment news agency reported.
Aptly titled Live From Space, the two-hour program will feature orbiting astronauts Rick Mastracchio and Koichi Wakata, with notable NASA engineer Mike Massimino appearing down on earth. The space station duo will conduct a tour of the $100 billion facility and experiments from the floating laboratory.
Nat Geo's move, which coincides with an order for a second Inside Combat Rescue and finalizing plans for its Miracle Landing on the Hudson special, comes as the cable network makes a bigger push into event programming. Previous ratings success has come with SEAL Team Six: The Hunt for Osama Bin Laden, Inside 9/11, The 80s: The Decade that Made Us and Bill O'Reilly histories Killing Kennedy and Killing Lincoln.
Space has been a ratings boon to others as well. In 2012, Discovery saw its highest-rated daytime program ever when Felix Baumgartner made a live jump from the stratosphere in front of an average 4.2 million viewers. Mark Burnett's space competition, a reality show where contestants vie for a seat on Sir Richard Branson's commercial spaceline, also recently landed at NBC after a bidding war.
"Everyday at NGC our team tries to reach for the stars," said NGC president Howard T. Owens. "Now we are literally able to do it. We are honored to have secured such amazing access to the station and the astronauts living there, and are exhilarated by the tremendous challenge to show Earth live."
Live From Space, produced by Arrow Media, will coincide with Fox's Cosmos: A SpaceTime Odyssey. The broadcast special is a joint venture between Fox and Nat Geo.
"We're thrilled to be making this unique event for NGC Worldwide," said Arrow Media creative director Tom Brisley. "The technological and logistical challenges of broadcasting live from space may be enormous, but there's no bigger buzz than creating mind-blowing content that works in micro gravity, on the world's largest spacecraft."
Nat Geo is making Live From Space, as well as Memorial Day's Inside Combat Rescue: The Last Stand and June's Miracle Landing on the Hudson, a multi-channel event. All three will also air on Spanish-language network Nat Geo Mundo. Additionally, Live From Space will simulcast in the U.K. on Channel 4. The network is plotting a second screen experience for Live From Space where viewers can interact with Mastracchio and Wakata.
EPS on Live From Space are Arrow's Al Berman and Sally Dixon and Nat Geo's Madeleine Carter.
As for the other projects, Nat Geo has released clips of both Inside Combat Rescue and Miracle (below). The latter will be the first special to focus on the passengers of US Airways Flight 1549, which famously crash-landed in the Hudson River without a single casualty thanks to efforts of Captain Sully Sullenberger.

Siam Cement Group to construct $300-million factory in West Java
Mar, 12 2012
(India) -- Siam Cement Group plans to construct a US$300-million factory at Sukabumi, West Java.
The construction of the factory will begin in mid-2012 and it will be completed in two and a half years. The factory is expected to produce 5,000 tons of cement per day.
Siam Cement Group CEO Kan Trakulhoon said "The whole production will be marketed in Indonesia."
He added that the company invested in Indonesia because of the country's good business climate and the fact that it has survived the impact of global crisis in 2008, "Unlike some other Asian countries which have been impacted by the crisis," the CEO said.
Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono also met with leaders of Thailand's Siam Cement Group (SCG) at the Presidential Office on Tuesday.
Representatives of Chandra Asri Petrochemical, Siam's business partner in Indonesia, also attended the meeting.
The giant Thai cement producer intended to seek government support of its expansion plan, which includes the construction of the US$300 million plant in Sukabumi, West Java.
With total assets of about $970 million, Indonesia is SCG's biggest foreign investment destination, Kan Trakulhoon said.
"We also have also been investing in Vietnam, the Philippines and Cambodia," he said.
SCG began its business in Indonesia in 1996 and has continued expanding due to the Thai firm's confidence in Indonesia's solid economic growth, Kan said.
SCG is a business group controlled by Thailand's royal family.

Kevin Garnett denies calling Villanueva "cancer patient"
Nov 3, 2010, 4:44 PM EDT
Kevin Garnett has responded to Charlie Villanueva's claim that Garnett called him a "cancer patient" during Tuesday night's game. In a statement released through the Celtics, Garnett denies making the statement.
"I am aware there was a major miscommunication regarding something I said on the court last night. My comment to Charlie Villanueva was in fact, 'You are cancerous to your team and our league.' I would never be insensitive to the brave struggle that cancer patients endure. I have lost loved ones to this deadly disease and have a family member currently undergoing treatment. I would never say anything that distasteful. The game of life is far bigger than the game of basketball."
When asked before tonight's game about Garnett's statement, Villanueva responded to the Detroit Free Press (via twitter):
"I know exactly what I heard."
- zackd22 - Nov 3, 2010 at 5:23 PM
VIllanueva is a cancer to this league? That makes sense…..
Meanwhile I doubt he spoke up and his team NOT re-signing Delonte "Smash your mom, guns in my guitar case" West.
- sham13ert - Nov 3, 2010 at 5:32 PM
Wow, as a Detroit fan, I don't know what to think about KG's comments. While I like CV as a person, his court presence seems to be lacking.
I mean, he gets hyped up on Twitter, why not punch KG in the face? I know there will be a suspension, but we need another Bill Laimbeer more than we need a stretch 4.
Rebounding and punching KG in the face should be the name of Charlie V's game. And not just against Boston, he should skip practice, dinner, and the birth of his grandchildren (if need be) to punch KG in the face… repeatedly.
Then show up, On Time, to rebound the basketball and not shoot 3 pointers (although the one he shot against OKC was ok).
Also, Villanueva should take down his senior class photo on Twitter and replace it with one of him, oh I don't know, playing basketball.
- pdbro - Nov 3, 2010 at 6:16 PM
If true, Villanueva looks quite the fool. Charlie had a clear agenda and it may have backfired. Beauty. That guy is overpaid garbage on the court anyway. Just another dude mailing it in after getting paid.
- wvan10 - Nov 3, 2010 at 9:46 PM
Seriously whoever actually believes that Garnett actually said CV was "cancerous to his team and our league" is a Tommy Heinsohn watching, Rajon Rondo loving Celtics homer or KG's mom. He said what CV said he said but CV broke an unwritten rule in the NBA….you don't rat out your peers. KG should be man enough to apologize and not lie and CV should be man enough to confront KG personally if he had an issue with what was said. The entire league talks trash especially KG. We're talking about the same guy who said he was "gonna bring a couple M-16s and Uzis" to the game against the Lakers in the West Finals a few years back (which coincidentally would actually get him fined in this day and age). Get over it people. NBA is for the big boys.

Paul Sancya, Associated Press
On Thursday, Detroit became the largest city in American history to file for bankruptcy.
The bankruptcy was filed in the Eastern District of Michigan by Kevyn Orr, a bankruptcy expert. According to CNBC, Orr was hired by the state in March to attempt to resolve the city's financial woes in an out-of-court restructuring. However, these attempts were rejected by bondholders and creditors, leading to today's filing.
The Deseret News reported last fall on how municipalities across the country have faced increased employee benefit and pension costs, and decreasing tax bases. But Detroit's economic picture is by far the bleakest. Detroit's budget deficit is believed to be more than $380 million, and long-term debt may be as high as $17 billion to $20 billion. Detroit's tax base has also been decimated as the city lost a quarter-million residents between 2000 and 2010. In 1950, Detroit's population was near 2 million. Today, it is around 700,000.
"Only one feasible path offers a way out," Republican Gov. Rick Snyder said in a letter to Orr and state Treasurer Andy Dillon. The letter was attached the bankruptcy filing, according to CNBC.
"The citizens of Detroit need and deserve a clear road out of the cycle of ever-decreasing services," Snyder wrote. "The city's creditors, as well as its many dedicated public servants, deserve to know what promises the city can and will keep. The only way to do those things is to radically restructure the city and allow it to reinvent itself without the burden of impossible obligations."
The Wall Street Journal reported that the creditors most at risk under the bankruptcy are those holding $11 billion in unsecured debt. That figure includes "almost $6 billion in health and other benefits for retirees; more than $3 billion for retiree pensions; and about $530 million in general-obligation bonds." The Journal said that while there will likely be large fights in the bankruptcy over who deserves payment, city-worker retirees are set to get less than 10 percent under the bankruptcy plan.

Scientists have uncovered a Darwinian explanation behind why less intelligent women have a stronger tendency to seek out 'sugar daddies'...
4:53PM, Jun 22
The findings suggest that contrary to popular belief, there's more to the 'gold digger' phenomenon than pure greed. Researchers are now suggesting that it could be seen as an "instinctive urge to guarantee a secure financial future for any potential children."
Lead author of the study, Dr Christine Stanik, of Michigan University, says it is "only natural" for women with limited education and career prospects to pursue men who are able to provide financial stability.
'In ancient times, women evolved an attraction to men with wealth because they knew such a mate could improve the chances of their offspring's survival,' said Stanik.
'It is a very strong gut feeling that is hard to shake off, especially when a woman does not have her own career which would give her financial independence.'
So next time you feel like indulging in an episode of Girls of the Playboy Mansion, don't give yourself a hard time. Remember, it's not only mindless reality TV you are watching -- but true Darwinism at work.
Quitting. Job. Now.
Don't miss the best meal of the day just 'cos you can't be arsed, girl.

Brett Favre Would Try to Win Games with Cam Newton Over "Anybody Else"
Brett Favre sat down with Deion Sanders and had some high praise for Cam Newton who he watched in college. Favre knew that Newton could run the ball based on his time at Auburn, but in his rookie year in the NFL Favre was more impressed with Newton's throwing.
"One thing I guess that surprised me with Cam was how polished a passer he was. He didn't throw as much, no disrespect, but Sitting in the pocket, and going through his pro, He didn't really do that at Auburn. Now He won a national championship, so whatever he did was pretty good."
Favre goes even farther than that and claims he would rather go to battle with Newton than "anyone else" in the league. He also said he would have drafted RG3 over Andrew Luck, because he prefers a quarterback who can keep himself safe with his legs rather than get hit.
"I met (Newton) last year. Buss asked me if I would go over and try to talk to Cam. I'd seen him on TV. Buss was trying to sign him. I said 'yeah I'll go Buss, but I've never had success helping you. They always sign with someone else.' "Favre jokes. "I walked into the room, and my exact words. His family was in there; They are a very nice family. I said man they don't make them like they used to. This dude was 6'6" , 260, no body fat. Well spoken; I would've drafted him right there. People asked me after that who would you take. I'm like, it's a no-brainer. Who would you rather play. If you just got an average or above average team.. Who would rather try to win games with. Cam Newton, or anybody else? I mean anybody else. I mean I'm talking about just what he brings."
Favre makes a great point about Newton being well spoken. On top of his many athletic talents, Newton is a superstar who craves the spot light and will represent his team and fans in an upstanding way. He told Peter King at the combine last year "I see myself not only as a football player, but an entertainer and icon." This sent off some alarms at the time, but what Newton was trying to communicate is that "Magic Johnson"-type quality to his game. He is a competitor, but he also wants to put a show on for the fans and that was evident in his rookie season based on his statistics and the many times he "tore open" his shirt revealing a metaphorical Superman logo. Newton at the very least has the support of football's historical Ironman, Brett Favre.

Your Wild Life's Gonna Get You Down Lyrics
Artist: Kitty Wells
Album: The Kitty Wells Story
You don't care what kind of life you live you don't care for love I give
You honky tonk all over town and your wild life's gonna get you down
I beg you time and time again not to treat me like you do
You've always been a run around now your wild life's gonna get you down
[ fiddle ]
Although you've always been untrue I know I'll never love anew
You're not the one for me I've found and your wild life's gonna get you down
You don't care no more for me darling that is plain to see
Someday I want to be around to see your wild life's get you down

If your character has a trait you consider one of their key features and it is never challenged in anyway, that trait will probably have about as much impact as their "tiny mole on their left buttcheek" trait.

Friday-July 31st/2015
I got this question a few weeks ago:
"Hi Trent! I'm currently an animation student and I'm planning to apply for Disney's Talent Development program (story or animation) for next summer. Right now I am working to build my portfolio, but what I wanted to ask is that do you mind sharing some of the portfolio work you submitted for the program? Any tips would be great as well. Thank you! I enjoy your blog very much :)!"
Thanks for the question! With our recent job openings in "The Talent Development Program," I thought this might be a good opportunity to answer this question and share my application process!
I applied for "Talent Development" over the span of 4-5 years, in multiple disciplines including Story, 2D Animation and CG Animation! I first discovered the program in 2008 when I attended the "Ottawa Animation Festival". This is where I started a long lasting relationship with Eric Goldberg, Dawn Yamazi (Dawn Rivera-Ernster) and Matt Roberts. I knew from the minute they told me about the program that I had to do it one day; it would become my main goal for the next 4-5 years, my motivation and my obsession!
A program where you get paid for 6 months to get trained by the best professionals in the business and an opportunity to be hired at the conclusion of the program! It's like the BEST school in the world…what a dream job!
Over the next few years, I would apply bi-annually and get rejected time and time again. Every year I would go to multiple conventions or festivals to meet up with the Disney recruiting team and get more feedback on my work. This was instrumental in my progress during those years. Every ounce of criticism and encouragement they delivered, motivated me to push harder and obtain that goal. Every job that I took was for the purpose of gaining experience and skills that reflected my feedback from the Disney recruiting team. When they told me I needed to improve my draftsmanship, I took drawing jobs. When they told me to I needed to learn Maya, I learnt 3D and took only CG Animation jobs. When they told me I needed more experience, I worked harder at personal tests and tried bigger studios and higher quality projects. Their feedback drove my career from 2008-2012.
One of the notes I received in early 2012 was to tailor my portfolio 100% towards Disney Animation and what they are doing…it seems obvious, but I wasn't doing that! I had read online about a project at Disney Animation called "Paperman" and speculation that it was a hand-drawn/ CG hybrid. I knew right away how I could craft my portfolio towards what Disney was currently working on, so I began a short dialogue piece that had a 2D and CG character (seen above). I had no idea what the plot of "Paperman" was, nor did I know its visual style. I figured that worst case scenario, it would demonstrate an understanding of both mediums and be a fun side project to work on.
I attended Siggraph in LA about a week prior to the application deadline for Talent Development (which happened to be my last year of eligibility). I had a demo reel review with the amazing Hyun-min Lee, she had just wrapped up on "Paperman" and happened to play a major role in it's look and success…HOW LUCKY WAS I! I showed her my demo reel with a work-in-progress 2D/CG test at the end. We talked for over 30 minutes, she was so gracious with her time, gave me amazing feedback and pushed me to complete the test for the deadline. So I went home, and spent the next few days obsessing over the completion of that test.
That fall I was accepted into the program as a CG Animator and got the call from my buddy Matt Roberts (the best animation recruiter in the business). I was ecstatic! All those long nights of working on personal tests, attending festivals and moving around the country for jobs had finally paid off! Long story short, it's important to put yourself out there and attend these festivals or conventions where you can get personal with recruiting teams. Disney is SO approachable, and I continue to have a great relationship with Dawn, Matt, Eric and Hyun-min. Never give up on that goal, some people will get accepted on their first application or upon graduation, and others like me will have to work harder and longer to obtain that same goal, we all learn and grow at different paces. Lastly, it was always Disney for me and always the "Talent Development Program." Have that focused goal and tailor that portfolio towards where you want to work, and you will make it!
I know that was a long answer for your question, but when I was applying I was desperately searching the internet for answer and tips and found nothing. Hopefully this will give you a little insight into my journey:) On a side note, I think the bar for "Talent Development" has risen in quality over the past few years, I'm not sure that my reel would be accepted now, so don't get discouraged and just keep at it:)
You can find the open positions here, I encourage everyone to apply for this amazing opportunity, there's none other like it in the industry!

CdO thin films have been grown on a-plane (110), c-plane (0001), r-plane (012) and m-plane (100) sapphire substrates by metalorganic vapour-phase epitaxy (MOVPE). The effects of different substrate orientations on the structural properties of the films have been analyzed by means of X-ray diffraction, including θ-2θ scans, pole figures and rocking curves. (111), (001) and (110) orientations are found on a-, r-, and m-sapphire respectively, while films deposited on c-plane exhibit an orientation in which no low-index crystal plane is parallel to the sample surface. The recorded pole figures have allowed determining the epitaxial relationships between films and substrates, as well as the presence or absence of extended defects. The rocking curves indicate that high quality thin films, in terms of tilt and twist, can be obtained on r-, c- and m-plane sapphire, while further improvement is needed over the a-orientation.

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
Who is to blame for the rise of ISIL?
27 Apr 2013 20:14 GMT | Politics, Middle East, US & Canada, United States, Yemen
Suspected al-Qaeda fighters have killed five Yemeni soldiers in an attack on a checkpoint southeast of Sanaa, an official has said, while two of the assailants were reportedly killed.
The attack targeted an army checkpoint in the district of Rada, where the interior ministry said late on Friday that it had mounted security measures following intelligence about possible attacks.
Five soldiers were killed and several others were wounded in the attack, the local government official said.
A gunfight was still ongoing on Saturday afternoon, and some gunmen were also killed, he added.
The Sep.net news website, which is linked to the Yemeni defence ministry, said two gunmen died in the exchange of gunfire.
Meanwhile, a provincial military intelligence chief was shot and killed on Saturday, a security official said, the latest in a series of killings in the impoverished state's lawless south and east.
The gunmen opened fire from a motorbike, killing Colonel Ahmed Abdulrazzaq, intelligence head in Hadramawt Province, outside his home in Mukalla on the Arabian Sea.
Around 60 military and security officials have been assassinated in southern and eastern Yemen in the past two years.
Al-Qaeda loyalists seized large swathes of the south and east in 2011, taking advantage of a decline in central government control during a prolonged uprising that forced veteran president Ali Abdullah Saleh from power in 2012.
Government troops have since recaptured much of the territory with support from deadly US drone strikes but armed groups retain bases in the desert east.

Technical article: 'Shark Tank' your gate meetings download
A gated product development process is often implemented by organisations to assist in scrutinising projects throughout their lifecycle to ensure only the fittest survive.

This article from Planview explains how can a television show such as Shark Tank can provide valuable insight into your gate meetings.

Pulling the plug on an in-flight project is hard. No one wants to be the person calling it quits, offending team members and admitting defeat.

TD Ameritrade's statement came a day after Interactive Brokers Group Inc said it was banning clients trading on margin in about 160 Chinese stocks following recent scandals that have led to numerous shares plunging and later being delisted.
Many of the biggest losers on U.S. exchanges Wednesday were Chinese companies included on Interactive's list. However, well-known bigger companies not on the list, such as RenRen Inc., were also hit. RenRen lost 11.7 percent on the day.
The heightened concern among investors comes in part after allegations leveled against Sino-Forest Corp. Its shares plummeted after a report last week from researcher Muddy Waters accused the forest plantation company of fraud.
"All these names are dangerous and it is probably the responsible thing to do to show investors, 'Listen, you can buy them, no problem, you just can't buy them on margin,"' said Andrew Left, an investor who runs Citron Research and who has published reports recommending short sales on certain Chinese stocks.
If a broker has lent money to an investor to buy a stock and that stock falls dramatically or is delisted, the lender risks losing money.
"Given the fact that these (Chinese stocks) have a black eye, to get a bit of negative news like that, it exacerbates the selling," said Bill Fleckenstein, president of Fleckenstein Capital Inc in Seattle.
TD Ameritrade currently does not have any new rules or regulations for investors wanting to invest in U.S.-listed shares of Chinese companies.
"If we see a need to make any changes in the interest of our clients, we will do so," said spokeswoman Kim Hillyer.
A Wells Fargo spokesman said "many of these Chinese companies" were on the firm's "special situations" list of companies, for which purchases on margin are either restricted or prohibited.
UBS Wealth Management Americas spokeswoman Karina Byrne said the firm has not changed its policy. The brokerage's securities-backed lending unit subjects all securities to a review to determine their applicable lending value.
"Chinese stocks such as the ones you mentioned would fail for lending value at UBS due to volume or market cap," she said.
"The question is, 'What can the brokerage firms do to make sure people don't get burned?' said Left. "Putting up 100 percent is good."

The First Step Toward a Successful Career on the Hill
HCF is an educational program designed to give junior congressional staffers the tools to develop, promote, and defend conservative principles and policies. Our graduates understand America's First Principles, have a firm grounding in policy, and possess the practical job skills to advance their careers.
HCF consists of 20 sessions beginning in February and ending in October.
What's Included

Graduation includes a Heritage Congressional Fellows Program certificate of participation from The Heritage Foundation, recognition at a special luncheon, and a letter sent to your Chief of Staff or Legislative Director notifying them of your achievement.
"There is no better conservative educational program on Capitol Hill. HCF brings the most informative policy experts each week, facilitates a medium for dialogue and exchange, and provides a network of young professionals bound by conservative principles."
- Tess Glancey, Office of Senator Shelby
HCF graduate 2013
"HCF should be a prerequisite for any conservative Hill Staffer who wants to climb the career ladder on Capitol Hill. Just come once and you'll see why. Every friend I invited to the Friday luncheons instantly became a regular — a true testament to the program's utility and appeal."
- Caitlin Alcala, House Subcommittee on Human Resources
HCF graduate 2012

- Jon Langford, Office of Congressman Lungren
HCF Graduate 2009
"The HCF program allowed Congressional staffers to hear from experts in their fields while meeting other conservatives from both sides of the Hill. Regardless of the topic chosen, every speaker underlined the importance of knowing the Constitution and understanding how to apply conservative principles when approaching or crafting policy. I personally loved the book recommendations that speakers would share on a given issue because those books have helped me shape my personal philosophies on foreign policy and national security issues."
- Rebecca Gaal Ulrich, Office of Congressman Duncan
HCF Graduate 2010
"The HCF program goes beyond the talking points so often recited on the Hill and explains the conservative principles behind them. I encourage any conservative staffer to join the program."

Alstom, together with its three consortium partners , will extend the Constantine area Tramway by 10 kilometres. Alstom's share of the contract, awarded by EMA (Entreprise Metro d'Alger, Algeria's public transport operator), amounts to around €80 million. The completion of the extension is scheduled for 3 years from now.
Alstom has received the Provisional Acceptance Certificate (PAC) for the 600MW ultra-supercritical Unit 6at Šoštanj power plant, in north-eastern Slovenia.
With a combined value of over €160 million, the new extension agreements will see Alstom providing technical expertise to oversee the service and maintenance of the Kaeng Khoi II power plant. Under the scope of these two agreements, Alstom will also provide new parts, reconditioning services and field service for planned outages for the plant's existing gas turbines, steam turbines and generators until 2033.
Alstom T&D India has been awarded once more a contract by Essar Projects India Limited worth close to €11 million (INR 800 million approx.) to supply transformers package for Neyveli New Thermal Power Project (NNTPP) located in the state of Tamil Nadu in India.
Alstom Grid has created the Eco Label as part of its Eco Design approach within its Clean Grid Programme. Eco label identifies low-impact products that present either a truly significant improvement in environmental performance or a major innovative breakthrough in that domain.
Alstom has signed a contract with Algeria's Société Nationale des Transports Ferroviaires (SNTF) to supply 17 Coradia Polyvalent inter-city trains. The contract is worth around 200 million euros. The first train will be delivered in January 2018.
From 2010 to 2015, Alstom Grid contributed to United States' largest smart grid demonstration called Pacific Northwest Smart Grid Demonstration Project, which issued its extensive Technology Performance Report document earlier this month.
Alstom today announced that it has been awarded a contract by a Midwestern utility to supply its Spray Dryer Evaporator (SDE™) technology to treat Wet Flue Gas Desulfurization (WFGD) waste water from two (2) 850 MW coal-fired boilers.
Since the Extraordinary General meeting held on 19 December 2014 which approved the acquisition by General Electric of Alstom's Energy businesses, both companies have been working with regulators around the world to secure competition and regulatory authorisations. Approvals have already been granted in 15 countries.
Alstom has recently handed over its part of the newly constructed Block 9 of the GKM coal-fired power station to Grosskraftwerk Mannheim AG (GKM).

The lost boys of St Athan
Joe Calzaghe is one of those fighting to stop the cenotaph in a holiday camp for young colliers being vandalised
Sunday 28 November 2010
The boys have long gone from St Athan Boys' Village. Its dormitories, church and the canteen that fed 200 boisterous young colliers enjoying a free holiday are now burnt and dilapidated. The ruin, on a windswept plot near Barry, south Wales, is the only known monument to a unique experiment aimed at giving teenagers a respite from doing the work of men, six days a week, in the filthy blackness of their country's coal mines. But nowthe former holiday village faces the threat of total erasure.
Founded close to the sea on the outskirts of West Aberthaw in 1925 by the Boys' Club Movement, St Athan was a place for the poorest boys of the mining community to take a week's summer holiday, a chance to be children again.
Now their teenage descendants in West Aberthaw use it as a different kind of playground: a focus for vandalism, drink and destruction.
One of their most popular targets is the cenotaph at the heart of the holiday village, dedicated to the memory of "the youth of all nations who fell that war might end, by the boys of the South Wales coalfield".
This year on Remembrance Sunday, just a handful of those who remember the memorial's significance scaled the broken boulders at the entrance to the camp to pay their respects. There is a steep decline in attendance from years gone by when (in 1962) the Queen Mother visited.
By next November there may be nothing left for even a handful to visit. An order protecting the cenotaph and central square of the St Athan village runs out – and the entire area is at risk of being demolished.
To Clive Thomas, 74, a former general secretary of the Boys' Club Movement and World Cup referee, the village is a symbol of the decline of the coal industry, once the lifeblood of Wales. "There's no money left in the valleys," he said this weekend. "The collieries are gone and people are moving out to work. There's no community any more. We need boys' clubs more than ever."
Mr Thomas, who officiated in the 1974 and 1978 World Cups and the 1976 European Championship, is spearheading a campaign to save the cenotaph. "I don't cry often, but tears came to my eyes when I saw it [earlier this month]. I looked at the old canteen, the dormitories, the church that was built by the miners when they were on strike – and I thought, 'How many kids have gone through these gates? How many of them fought and died?' What's happened to the place shows a complete lack of respect."
He and the former Welsh international football players John Hartson, Alan Curtis and Clayton Blackmore are just a few of the now-famous names who honed their skills at the St Athan football, cricket and rugby pitches after they were opened up in the 1960s to all local community, including girls.
The retired world boxing champion Joe Calzaghe has "fond memories" of the place.
"It's really sad that it has been left to decay like this," he said, "particularly with the war memorial at the centre. I fully support the campaign to get it cleaned up as it's a fitting tribute to people who died fighting for our country. It should be looked after."
At one time the holiday village had international appeal, receiving visitors from Germany, America and Japan. But the advent of cheap package holidays in the 1970s marked the start of its decline. In 1990 the land was sold to developers, then abandoned.
Joff Carroll, acting chief executive for Clubs for Young People Wales, the body that took over from the Boys' Club Movement, has formed a save-the-memorial committee, but said it would cost £10,000 to get the monument cleaned and re-sited. "It's very important to the families here. It's the only one in the area. We've got no intention of letting our cenotaph be bulldozed."
But there is disagreement between those who want it to remain in situ and those who want it moved to a museum. Alun Cairns, MP for the Vale of Glamorgan, said removing the stone should be the final resort. "When I saw the memorial I was absolutely livid," he said. "Relocation is the last option. It's one of the last links between the miners and the community they died trying to protect."
According to Clubs Young People UK, the decline of the village is "unique" to St Athan – there are few reports of other villages across the country even existing, let alone suffering similar decay.
Amy Davidson, conservation officer for the War Memorials Trust, said any decisions depended on the future of the site. "It is very sad to see the condition the memorial is in, compared with when the village was in use. The trust recommends that relocation of memorials should be a last resort, so as to retain the link between those commemorated by the memorial and the site, which also holds significance with Wales's industrial heritage."
There was a glint of hope four years ago, when a property firm sought permission to build 12 houses on the site. But work has not started because of what the developer R Thomas Esquire calls "impossible restrictions".
Until then, the monument will stay where it is, at the mercy of drunken teenage vandals and the ravages of time. It will wait, amid squalor, for someone to stand by the pledge made by the boys of the South Wales coalfield to "dedicate themselves to complete the task so nobly begun".

Michael McKean checks into physical rehabilitation center
"Spinal Tap" star Michael McKean has been relocated to a rehabilitation center following his car accident in New York last week.
The veteran funnyman was forced to pull out of his Tony-nominated Broadway show "Gore Vidal's The Best Man" on May 22 after a car reportedly mounted a curb and struck him, leaving the actor with a broken leg and other minor injuries.
McKean, who was taken to St. Luke's Hospital for treatment, was said to have taken his first step last week, and on Wednesday he was moved to a rehabilitation wing at nearby Roosevelt Hospital, where he'll undergo extensive therapy.
A statement from the 64-year-old actor, released to TMZ.com, reads, "I am heading into week two with renewed admiration for New York City's Emergency Medical Service staff, the NYPD, the staff of St. Luke's Hospital… and all those with problems much greater than my own."
