Humanitarian Futures Programme benefits greatly from collaboration and engagement with a number of highly influential futures thinkers and to mark this 100th anniversary of International Women's Day, I've consulted three prominent women who support our cause, to promote a new humanitarianism which will be required to meet the challenges of 21st century.
Arame Tall, the Senegal-based Consultant for Climate Change for Disasters and Development in Africa describes vividly why she sees women in her continent as much more vulnerable than men in the face of hazards presented by climate change; Margareta Wahlstrom, the United Nations Special Representative of the Secretary-General for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR), believes women's potential for influencing political change is only partially exploited and warns that it is a mistake to think this problem will "heal in time"; and Dr. Funmi Olonisakin, Founder/Director of The African Leadership Centre, sees patriarchy and centuries of structural flaws in society continuing to relegate women to the background, regardless of their talent and critical knowledge.
Arame Tall
"My worry on International Women's day is on women in my part of Africa who bear the greatest burden in adapting to an increasingly erratic and unpredictable climate, and are left more hopeless than men in their own societies or their counterparts in the developed world, with fewer options and strategies to get out of humanitarian crises which threaten their children and families."
Arame paints a stark picture of the future facing women in her continent who are forced to cope with the increased intensity and frequency of climate-related disasters.
"Communities feel the brunt of climate-related shocks, and within these communities not everyone is impacted equally. Specifically, women bear the biggest burden. They are the ones who have to walk extra miles when water is scarce. They are the ones who pull the children out of school to help them work the fields when the land becomes dryer and dryer, and yields smaller and smaller. Women are the ones left most of the time to find solutions and contend with the disastrous impacts of livelihoods that are no longer guaranteed because of changing climate patterns and atmospheric conditions."
The climate scientist points to the more and more delayed onset of the rainy season experienced in many West African countries, resulting in dramatic livelihood impacts at the community level. This has translated into reduced yields of crops for people and livestock in communities dependent on rain-fed agriculture.
"The indigenous knowledge and local coping mechanisms that used to be in place traditionally to adjust to natural climate variability are no longer relevant because of the increasingly erratic and unpredictable climate. Women are the ones who take on the load of sustaining the children and the family within these most vulnerable communities, and they are today confronted by a future with a very tough challenge – where do they go for their livelihoods when alternatives such as crop diversification, simultaneous cattle breeding and agriculture or even petit sale – are just not viable any more."
Across West Africa women are far superior in numbers than men. In Senegal for example the female population is 60%. Arame says it is critical to focus on the specific vulnerability of women, if we are to find a durable solution to climate change and alleviate its impacts at the community-level.
"We must take a futuristic, pro-active perspective and tailor climate adaptation and resilience-building programmes to the specific needs of women over the next two-to-three decades and beyond."
Margareta Wahlström
"For me, there are several key opportunities for women at this time. One is about women making great progress to make sure they use their untapped potential and resources for strengthening the global sustainability," says Margareta.
She is thinking about the lead and contribution women can make in converting to greener economies and ensuring there is a strategy for continued growth and at the same time keeping a focus on reducing poverty, through an approach that is sustainable and not uniquely linked to a resource base that can be depleted in the next 20 years.
But she says there must be a real commitment on the part of politicians, social planners and all sectoral policymakers, to take seriously the need to listen to the voice of ordinary women and men in communities, who have particular and insightful perspectives.
"I'm not saying that we move from government responsibility but that government without citizen input to support some of the tough choices and priorities to deal with current and future risks and sustainability issues, will fail. We need to take very seriously the need to obtain and make use of community knowledge. It is a foundation for change and for innovation"
A significant change in improving citizen consultation that she has seen working herself, is for officials to reduce the number of intermediaries "who claim to speak on behalf of communities" and to ensure they get the communities to represent themselves, which she ardently believes they are "perfectly capable of doing".
"It is outrageous to disenfranchise people and to ignore them by using too many intermediaries. Their voices need to be heard and it must inform policy and practice development."
Margareta believes that despite significant gains in the past 25 years - better education and progress in economic independence as more get work – women face a future in which they will remain marginalised economically. She strongly believes women's potential for influencing political change is only partially exploited and it is a mistake to think this problem will "heal in time".
"You can say women have a global voice, conference debating has more women these days and the UN woman has been created, but look at the very low proportion of women as parliamentarians across the world, for example".
Margareta believes women deserve a specific perspective on their needs and it is not good enough to think progress will happen automatically. She believes there should be more study into the barriers that keep female representation low in some areas – "is there a lack of motivation to immerse themselves fully in the political system or is there a gender perspective that misinterprets the nature and position of women?"
Funmi Olonisakin
"International Women's Day underscores a history of struggle for suffrage, for rights and for the recognition of resources – intellectual, human and financial - that women have offered to the development of their various countries," says Funmi.
She says that distinguishing these contributions by setting aside a special day recognises the "global
invisiblisation of women's narratives in our histories" and hence the need for a day to remind us not only of the gains that have been made but also of the structural deficits that need to be rectified.
Funmi believes that a society that too readily dismisses women as victims or people who do not have much to say about larger developmental and democratic concerns, is one that cannot effectively treat women as equals.
"I am particularly concerned about the 'missing' youth – especially women. This is critical for a continent such as Africa where there is a huge youth bulge with more that 60 percent of African populations consisting of people under the age of 35.We need to start thinking about how we treat this future generation and tap into its talent. We must not see these young women conveniently within traditional socio-economic and political fields. I believe that campaigning for equal opportunities for women remains a vital cause for there remains an imbalance which leaves women absent in critical spaces unlike their male counterparts."
Male dominated political and economic systems that are sustained by patriarchy have only been slightly destabilised by campaigns by women's rights actors and allies, she observes. These campaigns have shifted structures in favour of women but it is not a universal process.
Funmi sees some progress in contexts such as Europe and North America but there are still regions that lag behind. "I focus on African with a billion people where half of that population (women) remain largely absent when it comes to policy development and responses to human challenges and governance. This is in part due to the demands of daily survival due to the lack of basic needs such as food, water, education, health and shelter. It is also due to the pervasiveness of patriarchy
across most structures within the State."
She feels it is simplistic to blame gender inequality on men. "But one must recognise the existence of patriarchy as a structure that drives our societies in Europe and Africa alike. It is this complex structure evident in daily socialisation through various institutions such as the family, church, school and today, through the multiplicity of media available to young people, that sustains male privilege and power".
Funmi points out that patriarchy can also be harmful to men since they are socialised into particular ideas of masculinity and this is why her key message is that every citizen ought to have a fighting chance and a choice. "This is very important - to be whatever they want to be. If you prefer to operate in the realm of the family and be a good homemaker it is your choice and society ought to allow you to do that. If your preference is to be an engineer or a fighter pilot or operate in any profession whatsoever, you should be allowed to pursue it regardless of your sex."
She calls for a conscious effort to constantly re-socialise ourselves around the values we attach to femininity and masculinity. "This is a very difficult thing, to change structures that have existed for centuries and in essence transform power structures that offer skewed privileges to certain members of the society and not to others."
Funmi says institutional frameworks are needed to help society become more conscious of its approaches to the place and contribution of women. "It's not about recognising women as victims. We should recognise the diversity of expertise that resides with women. We should be tapping into this expertise."

Two hundred years ago the citizens of a frontier village pooled their resources to build what many regard as the most beautiful building in Vermont-the Middlebury Congregational Church.
The Henry Sheldon Museum of Vermont History and the Congregational Church of Middlebury join together to present Middlebury Meeting House: Celebrating 200 Years of the Congregational Church, an exhibit about builder Lavius Fillmore's masterpiece, the Congregational Church of Middlebury. The exhibit is on view at the Sheldon through June 28.
Curated by Nancy Rucker and Barbara Wells, the exhibit provides an overview of the Congregational Church's long history. Originally conceived as a meeting house for the Church of Christ, the consecration of the church on May 31, 1809 was the culmination of years of hard work and controversy. The exhibit will feature objects from the Museum's collection, including the Bible used in 1809 dedication, Watts Psalms and Hymns owned by an original member, and photographs and architectural remnants from the building. Come and celebrate the anniversary of this important Middlebury landmark.
There will be a reception for the exhibit on Thursday, April 16 from 5-7 p.m. In conjunction with the exhibit, Nancy Rucker and Barbara Wells will speak about the history of the Congregational Church on Tuesday, May 12 at noon. This talk is part of the Sheldon's Brown Bag Lunch History Talks series. Participants may bring a brown bag lunch; beverages and dessert provided. Fee: $2.
The Henry Sheldon Museum is located at 1 Park St. in downtown Middlebury across from the Ilsley Library. Museum hours: Tues.-Sat. 10 a.m.-5 p.m. and Sundays 1-5 starting May 24. Research Center hours: Tues., Wed., Fri. 1-5 p.m., Thurs. 1-8 p.m. Admission to the Museum is $5 Adults; $3 Youth (6-18); $4.50 Seniors; $12 Family.
The Sheldon will be free on Tuesday, April 14 from 10 a.m.-5 p.m.and on Sunday, May 31 from 1-5 p.m. for Addison County residents. For more information call 88-2117.

Classic/Famous Horror Films You Don't Like
I got inspired to make this thread after reading through the "Famous horror films you haven't seen" thread.
Basically I see this as listing any horror films that are well regarded, praised or deemed classics that you couldn't really care less about, don't like or just plain hate.
Off the top of my head:
Night of the Living Dead
The Shining
Rosemary's Baby
Silence of the Lambs
Last House on the Left
They Live
The Hills Have Eyes (1&2)
Motel Hell
I'll admit it has been a while since I've seen Night so I'm probably due to re-visit it but every time I sit though this one I find myself falling asleep. Maybe my taste have changed as it's been years since I've seen it making it the only title I'm not 100% about.
The others I find boring and just don't enjoy them. They have their moments but it's not enough for me to want to revisit them or add them to my collection. I find The Shining very overrated.
There's likely more titles to add but that's all I can think of for now. Lets hear what others think :)
I understand the original LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT's place in horror history but I have never personally cared for it.
A few off the top of my head:
Re-Animator (so much awesome gore but it still puts me to sleep)
From Beyond
Lord of Illusions
Every Friday the 13th after the first one
Burnt Offerings (even the amazing cast couldn't keep me engaged)
The Changeling (It's been a while since I last saw it. I'm willing to give this one another shot)
Most Herschell Gordon Lewis films (I do love The Gore Gore Girls though)
In the Mouth of Madness (Again, haven't seen it since its release. I'm a huge JC fan so I'm willing to give it another spin)
They Live (I've tried. Multiple times. I love the concept, but I found the execution to be piss poor, largely due to the fact that Roddy Piper couldn't act his way out of a wet fart)
Argento's Deep Red
Hellraiser, and any Clive Barker in general, is over rated.
Prom Night
Halloween II
The Stuff
It's Alive
Blood and Black Lace
The Lost Boys
While I do like it overall, I find Halloween pretty overrated. Absolutely hated part II though.
Suspiria. I'd watch Zombie Lake back to back before sitting through that again.
Most of your other picks make me sad though, same with the last 3 posts below :cry:
I don't bother anymore with films "by the creators of Paranormal Activity" because I've seen enough of their product to know better. I love it when the ads use that line as a selling point. It saves me time, energy, and money. Unfortunately, that's the kind of crap that sells nowadays so I wind up spending most of my time looking for forgotten classics on VHS rather than checking out new stuff.
Prom Night
Halloween II
Basket Case
It's Alive
The Stuff
From Beyond
Blood and Black Lace
The Descent
Shaun of the Dead
The Host
The Saw series
While I'm a fan overall, I find Halloween quite overrated. Absolutely hated II.
I've mentioned these in another thread but THE BURNING and MADMAN are two whose adoration I just don't understand. It's very difficult for me to sit through either of them, which is odd since they are both early 80s American slashers--one of my favorite genres!
Oh yeah, and anything from Hammer. That whole over-lit Gothic melodrama thing. Yuck.
Carnival of Souls - I found this mostly boring.
Hellraiser - I have no idea why I don't like this great movie
I'm sure there are a few more that I can't think of right now.
edit: I don't like the Saw franchise much at all.

Serving the onasadya is an art in itself. And eating the onasadya is an even bigger art. The traditional method of eating helps in digesting such a huge vegetarian fare.
Onasadya is served on banana leaves and it is laid on the table or ground and the narrow part of the leaf should always be on the left side.
Serving begins from the bottom left half of the leaf. In some areas a pinch of salt is kept on the leaf but some people avoid it.
- On the bottom left half of the leaf a small banana is placed.
- Next Pappadam (In some places later with the parippu curry)
- Then sarkara varatti (jaggery coated banana chips) and upperi (banana chips)
- Next from the top left half of the banana leaf 'big lime curry'
- then, pickle
- Inchicurry or inchipuli
- Thoran (dry vegetable with coconut)
- Olan
- Avial
- Pachadi
- Kichadi
Now the plantain leaf is filled with all the side dishes and most people will have dipped their fingers in some of the delicacies to have a taste.
- The rice is served at the bottom center of the banana leaf.
- First, parippu curry is served along with ghee.
- Next rice is served with Sambhar.
- Next Kalan or Rasam
- Then comes the most anticipated part the Ada Pradaman (payasam or sweet).
The right way is to it on the banana leaf along with some small lime pickle. But sadly nowadays most people prefer it in cups.
Most people stop with the sweet but the traditional onasadya is not over yet.
- Some people take some more rice along with puliseri or mooru (curry from curd).
This helps in digesting the food.

A pleated fabric window covering for an angular top or ceiling wall has the pleated fabric upper part cut at the required angle and the pleat lines are cut from the angular edge inwardly a fixed distance forming tabs. The tabs are overlapped and stapled to the upper rail flat surface. Manipulation of control cords positions the pleated fabric at any desired location below the upper rail lower end.
1. A method of making a pleated window covering having an extent of pleated material, a first rail interconnected with a lower edge of the pleated material for generally horizontal disposition and a second upper rail from which the pleated material hangs for arrangement with respect to a wall surface and oriented for disposition at a predetermined angle with respect to the horizontal, comprising the steps of:
laying a length of pleated material onto a horizontal surface, with each pleat being defined by a pair of pleat lines;
securing the first rail to a lower edge of the pleated material;
forming a strip with outer and inner parallel sides on an upper surface of the pleated material, with said strip being arranged at the predetermined angle relative to a pleat line;
severing the pleated material along the outer side of the strip;
severing the pleated material along each pleat line from the outer side of the strip to the inner side of the strip thereby forming a plurality of tabs; and
securing the tabs to one surface of the second rail.
2. A method as in claim 1, including the further step of forming the tabs into a sequence of overlapping adjacent pairs of tabs prior to securing the tabs to the second rail.
3. A method as in claim 1, in which the strip is formed by pressing a straight edge with parallel sides onto the pleated material and marking the pleated material along each of the straight edge parallel sides.
4. A method as in claim 1, in which severing of the pleated material is accomplished by cutting.
5. A method as in claim 1, in which the tabs are secured to the second rail by stapling.
The present invention pertains to window coverings, and, more particularly, to a window covering for an area that has an angular top wall to be covered, method of making and a mounting arrangement therefor.
A window covering of the kind that is of particular interest here consists of a textile fabric or a pliable plastic material which is formed into a plurality of parallel pleats, and which on raising or lowering the material folds and unfolds along the pleat lines. In the usual situation, the wall portion to be covered is substantially rectangular so that the wall covering itself is rectangular and readily moved vertically between open and closed positions in conventional manner.
There are many situations in which a window, for example, has an upper edge which is arranged at an angle to the horizontal, or other situations where the ceiling may be canted at an angle so that a wall covering to conform to a space to be covered must have an upper edge that is similarly arranged at an angle to the horizontal. Such a wall covering is frequently referred to as an "A-frame" covering and when the term is used herein it will be in that sense.
An A-frame wall covering, since it has an upper edge that is angularly disposed to the horizontal, can only be raised to the lowermost end of the angled upper edge. Moreover, the portion of the covering or blind between the two ends of the angled edge remain in extended position throughout use which presents a difficult fabrication problem in securing the angled cut edge of the covering fabric to the angularly disposed head rail to which the covering is attached without puckering, tearing or otherwise distorting the material. In the past, interconnections between the fabric portion of the covering to the angularly disposed headrail have been a relatively difficult hand operation which frequently resulted in a puckered interconnection point or series of points that were both unsightly and not fully reliable.
Initially the pleated fabric is cut and drilled in accordance with the overall length desired for the particular final window covering, shade or blind. Two inner rails and one bottom rail are cut to the proper width of the covering and a headrail is also cut to the angle of width. The fabric is then stapled or otherwise secured to the two inner rails previously sized to width.
An inspection rack slide temporarily holds the top inner rail which is received into a part of the slide and which is at least as wide as the shade or preferably wider. The window covering is then allowed to hang to its greatest length and stretched a slight additional amount. The adjustment cords are now cut to accommodate the window covering in the extended relation.
Next, the window covering fabric is marked measuring up from the bottom rail at its point of highest drop and also at the point of lowest drop, depending upon the required angle of the top edge. The window covering is then removed from the rack and laid flat on a suitable work surface where the fabric is flattened onto the surface in the area of the angle to be cut. A line is drawn by the use of a conventional straight edge from the point of highest drop to the point of lowest drop previously marked, and the fabric is cut along the line. A similar line is prepared using the other side of the straight edge (e.g., one inch width for the straight edge) so that there are now two parallel lines, one of which is the cut edge and the other is an angular line parallel to the cut edge. Each pleat or fold line is cut from the angular outer edge into the parallel line forming tabs in the fabric and each tab is folded and creased along the parallel angle line.
Starting from what is to be the top of the shade in final use, adjacent tabs are folded over one another forming a three-sided pleat for each adjacent pair. The inner rail is then positioned against an appropriately located limit stop
With the fabric and parts described to this point laid on the work table, the fabric is held upside down but at the angle that it is to hang. The fabric tabs are then stapled to the inner rail parallel to foldline from the back side (e g., two staples per pleat) insuring that the points of the pleat do not go beyond the limit stop positioning of the inner rail. When all of the fabric is stapled to the rail, then the excess fabric tabs are trimmed off.
The cord holes are lined up and a hole is punched in the position needed. Some of the holes will be to the front of the fabric and some to the back depending upon hole location and angle of the cut. The cord guide may now be installed in each hole. As a final matter, masking tape may be placed over the exposed staples on the inner side of the inner rail, and with the cords fed through the cord guides, the A-frame window covering is completed.
FIG. 1 is a side elevational view of the described window covering unit shown mounted onto a rack to simulate final mounting.
FIG. 2 is a perspective, partially fragmentary view showing parts of the headrail in exploded relation.
FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a rectangular window covering unit in a first stage for conversion to an A-frame.
FIG. 4 is a front elevational view of the window covering unit of FIG. 3 shown fully extended.
FIG. 5 is a front elevational view of the covering unit of FIG. 4 shown in a special hanging rack for marking the predetermined angle of the upper edge.
FIG. 6 shows the laying out the cutting angle on the covering unit fabric.
FIG. 7 shows the fabric of FIG. 6 trimmed to the predetermined angular edge.
FIG. 8 shows the formation of end tabs on the angularly cut edge of the fabric.
FIG. 9 shows the tabs of the fabric stapled onto the inner rail.
FIG. 10 shows the stapled tabs trimmed to remove excess tabs.
FIG. 11 is a side elevational, sectional view taken along the lines 11--11 of FIG. 1.
Turning now to the drawings and particularly FIG. 1, an A-frame wall covering unit the fabrication of which we are particularly concerned with here is identified generally as 20 and is seen to include in its major parts an extent of pleated fabric 21 hanging from an angularly disposed headrail 22, and an adjustment cord 23 which enables raising and lowering the pleated fabric 21, as desired. First and second brackets 24 and 25 (shown in dotted line) form a rack for use in manufacturing and inspection of completed window covering units in simulated final mounting.
The A-frame window covering unit differs from conventional window covering units employing a pleated fabric essentially in that the upper headrail 22, instead of being disposed in a generally horizontal position with respect to the hanging fabric, is arranged at an angle in order to accommodate an angular internal ceiling surface, or to align with and cover an angular window top, for example. Accordingly, at the right side there is depicted in FIG. 1 pleated fabric 21 extending upwardly a total distance of A which is greater than the distance B as measured along the left side. It is to be understood that the total amount of adjustment for the height of the pleated fabric that can be achieved by manipulation of the cord 23 cannot exceed the distance B, so that in the shade's highest adjustment position, the lowermost edge of the fabric (or rail 26) would be positioned at the top end of dimension B in contact with the lower left end of the rail 22.
As can be seen best in FIG. 2, the adjustment cord 23 interconnects through the headrail to first and second cords 27 and 28 threaded through a plurality of aligned openings formed in the pleated fabric along two lines parallel to the right edge and to the left edge of the pleated fabric, respectively. Accordingly, by manipulation of the cord 23 each of the cords 27 and 28 are raised or lowered depending upon the adjustment direction of cord 23. A locking means 29, only represented schematically in FIG. 2, is of conventional design and permits the pleated fabric 21 to stay at any particular predetermined location until moved to a further location.
It is desirable that the pleated fabric in the region between the upper and lower edges of the canted headrail 22 be folded that amount necessary to appear continuous and consistent with the rest of the fabric as it hangs downwardly. This is accomplished as described herein in a manner that will also reliably secure the window covering fabric to the head rail from which it hangs and without exhibiting puckering or distortion of the partially folded fabric located between the two ends of the angularly disposed headrail.
As initial preparation for fabricating an A-frame window covering in accordance with this invention, two inner rails 30 and 31 and a bottom rail 32 are cut to the desired width of the final window covering unit or shade (FIG. 3). The opposite ends of the presized extent of fabric 21 is stapled (33) to the two properly dimensioned inner rails 30 and 31. As for a conventional shade, the fabric package is punched and grommeted to make it amenable for cording. The bottom rail is then assembled in the normal way to the inner rail except that the headrail and cord lock is not provided. The entire assembly to this point is shown in FIG. 4 extended vertically.
Turning now to FIG. 5 an inspection rack 34 generally includes an elongated rectangular member 35 which is conveniently mounted horizontally and has at spaced intervals first and second U-shaped hangers 36 and 37 onto which an inner rail may be slid in order to support the shade in hanging relation during further processing. In particular, the shade as shown in FIG. 5 has the rail 32 held by the hangers 36 and 37 allowing the shade to hang downwardly. The shade is extended to its maximum use length plus approximately one inch and the cords are clipped to maintain the shade at that overall height. With the shade in this hanging relation as depicted in FIG. 5, the lowest height of the shade is marked on the left in any suitable manner and on the right side the highest point is also marked (i.e., L.H. and H.H.). These two marks correspond to the dimensions B and A, respectively, shown in FIG. 1.
After marking, the shade is removed from the inspection rack and stretched out flat on a smooth, horizontal surface table (not shown) (FIG. 6). Using a straight edge 38 (e.g., approximately one inch wide) the fabric in the area of the angle to be cut between the two marks on the edges is flattened out on the table surface. A first line 39 is drawn joining the two marks L.H. and H.H. and a second line 40 using the opposite side of the straight edge is drawn which is parallel to and approximately one inch (i.e., width of straight edge) from the first line. The fabric is then cut along the first line 39 providing an upper edge to the fabric arranged at the desired predetermined angle.
Each of the pleat lines is then cut from the outer angled edge 39 to the second line 40 forming tabs 41. Each of the tabs are then folded along the second line 40 in the same direction and are firmly creased (FIGS. 7 and 8).
Starting from what will be the top of the shade upon completion, the tabs 41 of each set of two adjacent pleats may be bent to overlap each other forming a three-sided box pleat and the overlapping tabs are taped together using a small piece of masking tape. Although not strictly a part of the present invention, at this time during normal fabrication of the shade it would be typical to paint the headrail inner rail to the desired rail color.
As shown in FIG. 9, the fabric portion of the shade is then placed on the inner rail against limit stop 44 and the tabs 41 are stapled (43) in place so that the fabric will extend along substantially the center line of the rail. More particularly, the stapling is arranged so as to extend along the centerline axis of the inner rail and in that way insure proper location. When all of the fabric has been stapled to the rail, the tabs are trimmed back slightly from the rail ends as shown in FIG. 10.
The A-frame window covering unit or shade is now complete and can be mounted to a wall as shown in FIG. 1. In use, manipulation of the cord 23 to raise or lower, as the case may be, the pleated fabric 21, the maximum raised position for the fabric being when it is horizontally coincident with the lower end of the angled headrail 22. As already noted there is no raising at any time of the fabric which lies between the upper and lower ends of headrail 22, this fabric maintaining an appearance consistent with the remainder of the fabric as a result of the box-pleat formation (FIG. 9) during fabrication of the predetermined angularly cut fabric edge. That is, in securing the tabs 41 to the angularly disposed rail 22, the tabs are so arranged in relation to each other that when the pleated material is all extended and hanging, it will give a consistent and uniform appearance with no puckering or other distortion.
Although the invention has been described in connection with having the upper rail 22 angularly disposed with respect to a horizontal lower rail 26, these can be reversed and still be within the spirit of the invention. That is, the upper rail may be horizontal and the lower rail angularly oriented, in which case the pleated material would be cut and secured to the lower rail 26 in the same manner as previously described herein for securing to the upper rail.

"When IN THE NURSERY suggested collaborating on an album of music inspired by my David Hunter novels, I was immediately intrigued. Coming from Sheffield myself, I was familiar with ITN's work. Their music is dramatic, atmospheric and highly cinematic - all attributes I try to bring into my own writing. What we agreed on was to create something new: not an audiobook with background music but an instrumental soundtrack that takes its themes and tone from the David Hunter books. As such it's a unique project, and something that to the best of my knowledge hasn't been done before. Hopefully it will not only appeal to those familiar with the series, but also resonate with a wider audience." Simon Beckett, April 2012.

Hot on the heels of Praha 1, In The Nursery release a second live album from the ITN archives.
In The Nursery live at Camden Palace will be available for digital download via iTunes - release date 31.10.11
Recorded live at Camden Palace 13th February 1990, the unreleased recording captures the band at a crucial point in their career - they had just released the milestone album L'Esprit and were about to embark on tours of Holland and France.
The brief 35 minute set, as one of the 'Feet First' indie nights at Camden Palace, documents an enthusiastic response from a London audience but also highlights what must have been an incredulous performance as some impatient clubbers (complete with whistles), at the height of acid house, wait for the disco to begin. Listen closely and you can hear the heckling calls of "Where's the News man?" and "Play some Rock n Roll!"
Tracklisting: Archaic Torso (intro) / L'Esprit / Scherzo / Subito - Regal: Miracle Of The Rose I / To The Faithful / Elegy / Compulsion / Twins
In The Nursery live album Praha 1 is being made available for digital download via iTunes - release date 26.09.11

* ITN are currently writing new material for their 7th Optical Music Score.
In memory of Rob Deacon who tragically died last month.
"Rob Deacon, who has died aged 42 in a canoeing accident, was a true innovator in the independent music world. He helped break many artists across a vast range of styles and introduced a unique format with his 1990s compilation series, Volume and Trance Europe Express. He worked outside the mainstream, yet succeeded by the sheer force of his creativity, good nature, powers of persuasion and friendship".

Rock Sound Review
Prolific creators of sensuous soundscapes, IN THE NURSERY have returned with 'Era', an album exploring the themes of architecture, urban decay, and regeneration. But such is twins Klive and Nigel Humberstone's emphatic feel for their subject matter, this seems like it is less about buildings than something more vital. A picture of the city as a living organism - growing, dying, being reborn. The story of civilisation. A full, almost bombastic, sound driven by trademark militaristic drumming and strings pull against gothically spectral vocals to serve as a vision of strength beset by war, weakness and fate. With Massive Attack's Sarah Jay Hawley singing on three tracks, including the pathos-dripping 'Tempered Wings', 'Era' is fragile yet beautiful and strong yet sweet.
Sarah Cosgrove
Steve Streeter / A Fan
What a fantastic album this is - just when I thought ITN couldn't get any better, the band have really upped their game with "Era". One of the most spellbinding and beautiful pieces of music I've heard, the hugely anticipated "Era" has surpassed by a mile my high hopes for the album. This is totally mesmerising from start to finish.

I need to take a break after typing out that title, it easily wins for longest title of the year. Seriously though, it is time to play a little bit of catch up. I didn't have the opportunity to post at all this morning due to a long night celebrating my birthday but now is the time to make up for it. This song is off of J-Scrilla's Culture of Honor album so get it if you support the DMV movement because this song alone is bringing half of the artists haha.
Sadly, I don't have enough time with my job and other responsibilities to post everything I want to on this site and many a song and project slip through the cracks here. This happens to be one of those projects and thanks to DJBooth I was able to catch this song and now have the honor of posting it for the masses. As you all know, I am from the DMV and do my best to rep their artists on here and I honestly can't think of a better track that does that then this one. J-Scrilla is a producer from the area who has worked with a lot of the artists on the scene (as evidenced by this song alone) and he recently released his tape Culture of Honor with a ton of them on there and you should definitely check it out, especially if you are into the whole DMV movement.
