The tabs above will give you information you need for the planning of your Leeds and Liverpool Canal widebeam or narrowboat holiday, cycle route, towpath walk or favourite fishing spots with the canal guide being printable to use while on your canal adventure. Using information through our Leeds and Liverpool Canal guide, Leeds and Liverpool Canal map and photo galleries we can help you find narrowboat hire bases, mooring spots, places to eat at canalside pubs and restaurants, towns, villages and landmarks of interest. Information of all kinds is added all the time so if you can't find some information at this time be assured that we are working hard to get it on the site as soon as we can.
Stretching over 127 miles the Leeds and Liverpool is the longest wide canal in Britain. The canal serves as a link between the Irish Sea and North Sea via the Aire and Calder Navigation onwards from Leeds. The canal climbs to a peak of 487 feet from the Lancashire Plain and up through the glorious Pennines into wild moorland through the mile long Foulridge Tunnel and into the Yorkshire Dales in the fine wooded Aire Valley. It links with a great many canals giving cruisers the option of navigating on to the Lancaster Canal via the River Ribble, The Yorkshire Ouse, the wide and narrow Huddersfield Canals and the Rochdale Canal to name a few.
Waterways Leisure is a valuable resource for information on canal pubs, barge hire and places to eat and drink.

With canal boat hire bases spread along the Canal there is a good choice as to where to start your canal boat holiday from.
The Following Leeds and Liverpool Canal Guide is not only a guide for people on canal boat holidays but is written to be just as handy for activities along the towpath and for people lucky enough to be boat owners with information of attractions, highlights, land marks, mooring spots, marina's, food shops, canalside pubs and other places to eat in the settlements along the Leeds and Liverpool Canal. Both the canal map and canal guide can be printed off by clicking the icon on the right to be taken with you as you enjoy your time on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal.
Access to the Leeds and Liverpool Canal from the Leeds end is via the River Lock separating the canal from the Aire and Calder, from this point to Lock 13 at Newlay Locks be sure to time your entrance to the Leeds and Liverpool as all locks between this point are only open for limited hours in the summer, between 8am and 3pm and need to be booked in advance over the winter. There are mooring points near Bridge 222 at Kirkstall to jump ashore and enjoy the many shopping and eating opportunities that Leeds provides as well as a rich choice of museums. If you choose to just cruise upstream to get away from the city then you will be treated to some fine restored old warehouses and a canalside that is tidy and well presented.
The first advised place for mooring overnight is beyond lock 13 at Newlay, away from the city centre and all the hustle and bustle. The canal sweeps westwards towards Shipley going through the first of many swing bridges along this stretch, the crossing under the A6120 signals the end of Leeds and towards the imperceptible gap between Leeds and Shipley. There is some nice woodland and peaceful cruising despite the railway line following the waterway for much of this section, it rarely intrudes anymore than one would expect in an urban environment.
Many choose not to stop in Shipley and cruise straight on to Saltaire, much of the impressive architecture and imposing mills that run alongside the canal are primarily thanks to Sir Titus Salt who lends his name to the town and his considerable wealth made Saltaire one of the best laid out, designed and developed industrial towns in existence to the degree that it has been granted World Heritage Site status. It is certainly a place full of character and history with excellent facilities and plenty to do and most certainly worthy of a stopover.
After Saltaire there are quiet woodlands through the Aire Valley leading over a considerable 7 arched aqueduct and soon thereafter looms Bingley and the first of three flights of locks within quick succession,. The first flight of locks are the Dowley Gap Locks which lead to the centre of Bingley. In quick succession are the Bingley –Three-Rise and Bingley-Five-Rise, the five rise in particular involves massive chambers lifting the canal a mighty 60 feet by the top of the flight, there is a lock keeper to keep an eye on events here so support is never far away. There are moorings available above and below the five rise to recover from the exertion but rest assured there are no more locks between here and Skipton, just plenty of swing bridges.
The villages of Riddleden and Stockbridge offer canalside convenience for re-stocking provisions or stopping for a quick drink or two otherwise cruise through lush woodland, rolling hills and moorland that accompanies the canal throughout this section. Silsden is an appealing place it has many family run shops to re-stock from and a wide variety of pubs to while away some time in surrounded by rich moorland and some ideal walking opportunities.
Beyond Silsden, aside from the intrusion of the rather busy A629, the views northward are some of the best and most inviting on the canal which is a nice distraction from the seemingly endless swing bridges along this stretch.
Before long the canal lazily winds into Skipton at which point there are all the moorings and amenities that boaters could hope for, it is at this point that the canal turns left but do take time to go to the right if your boat is less than 35 feet, the Springs Branch only takes you half a mile or so taking the canal past the impressive walls of the 11th century castle. Skipton is not a large place and mooring close to Bridge 178 makes the whole historic centre and its many pubs within easy reach.
The number of swing bridges doesn't seem so vast moving away from Skipton, and it's a few miles before Gargrave and the many locks to be faced on that stretch, so relax and take in the impressive scenery of the Yorkshire Dales. Gargrave itself offers moorings and facilities to boaters and despite getting very busy in peak season is a great place to stop and relax, the River Aire flowing through the village, plenty of places to sit and relax surrounded by the Dales, it provides an ideal place to charge your batteries before taking on the imminent Bank Newton Locks taking the canal back to the south and deeper into the Dales.
There are mooring facilities a little further on in East Marton, the village offers some choice for those who wish to stop for a drink and the church dating back to Norman times is worth exploring. Many find themselves rushing on drawn in by the famous locks at Greenberfield which raise the canal a further 29 feet to the highest point of the Leeds and Liverpool. The character of the Greenberfield Locks lies in the serenity, dry stone walls, quaint and beautifully restored small canalside buildings, and the scenery signals the end of the Yorkshire Dales and the beginning of the Pennines, both as stunning as each other. Nearby Barnoldswick has a surprising choice of shopping opportunities based around the old market square.
The canal continues its southward journey past the village of Salterforth which offers limited facilities but lots of charm, and on to Foulridge, which is much nicer than its name suggests. Foulridge Tunnel is one of the longest to be found anywhere, at over 1600 yards in length there is a traffic light system used to keep order which can and usually does involve congestion, particularly in peak season. Foulridge Wharf is a well presented feature which has food and drink on offer with more traditional pubs and shops a short walk away.
The pound down to Leigh provides many public moorings amidst rolling countryside giving an amazing backdrop to several villages that punctuate the rural peace that offer several opportunities to stop for a while and relax to eat and drink and absorb the tranquil rural idyllic setting.
At Wigan the Leeds and Liverpool is joined by the popular Bridgewater Canal from the left, increasing the traffic somewhat around the junction. There are several locks on the way into Wigan not least two large flights before the Leigh Branch at the Wigan 21, where the Leeds and Liverpool meets the Bridgewater. There are plentiful moorings here or further down at the Bottom Lock, the latter giving easier access into the centre of Wigan and its wide selection of shopping opportunities. The waterside at Wigan is pleasant but many choose to move on to the first of the Leeds and Liverpool canal's imposing 72 foot locks at Pagefield Lock.
Heading west out of Wigan takes the canal to Crooke mooring peaceful and very rural after the bustle of Wigan, the distant M6 barely intrudes, just beyond which lie a few swing bridges but these are scarcer than upstream and feel more novel and enjoyable.
Appley Lock, which is the last until Liverpool, provides the most peaceful moorings on the run to Burscough from Wigan and as such are very popular, from here there is peaceful cruising to be enjoyed along the Douglas Valley arriving in the beautiful village of Parbold which exudes welcome to all boaters who wish to stop to restock at independent stores or have something to eat and drink.
At Berscough the Rufford Branch to the Lancaster Canal joins the Leeds and Liverpool, there are mooring and shopping facilities here and on the way out there are three swing bridges to operate before the first winding hole from the junction.
On clearing Burscough the canal seems somewhat disjointed from the large conurbations that surround it, the flat marshland and reed beds are a stark contrast to the urban sprawl of Southport, Liverpool, Maghull and Ormskirk. The roads hardly intrude on the peace, the canal crosses under the busy A570 and the slightly less busy A5147 runs alongside the canal to varying degrees until the centre of Maghull but there is no shortage of nature to accompany us.
The town of Maghull provides plenty of opportunity to restock. Maghull Manor house was built in 1638 and local tradition has it that King Charles 2nd slept there whilst in the area. By 1780 a new manor house was built near the site of the original, it still stands with part of the original moat. Moving forward between Maghull and Aintree the canal is once again crossed by a busy motorway, this time the M58 and soon after the M57. The canal curves round in a sweeping arch through almost 180 degrees to lead us past Aintree and its famous racecourse for a little while before skirting around the northern edge of Liverpool's suburbs.
Contrary to what you may have heard, large parts of Liverpool are welcoming, clean and along the canal we are treated to some nice well groomed suburban surroundings, more often than not there is a belt of green following the path of the canal and some enjoyable lively pubs along the way.
The canal loops south to skirt the River Mersey and the surroundings become much more industrial and built up as we progress towards the newly renovated Liverpool Docks giving access to the Mersey beyond. The Eldonian Village before the entrance to The Stanley Dock is as inviting and convenient as any within miles and due to its proximity to the Docks lock system and the limited hours that the locks are open for makes it an ideal point for a stopover before tackling the locks.
The navigation through the many locks and docks of the Liverpool Basin is as long and complex at it is enjoyable, after years of redevelopment the docks now provide a salubrious environment surrounded by industrial history, luxurious apartments and interesting buildings surrounded by retail outlets, cafe's and bars. The highlight of the journey through this area is leaving Princes Docks, through St. Nicholas Tunnel and coming out to a grand view of the iconic Liver Building or entering the equally iconic Albert Dock. Welcome to the Mersey!

Wanting to place two nice adult tom turkeys...
I have a gorgeous 2-3yr old purebred bourbon red tom, he's a proven producing tom, and he's super friendly (will come to you and eat out of your hand). Can be penned up or free ranged & he doesn't go no where.
Then I have a very large broad breasted bronze, he's 1yr old, starting to be a little cocky, so he'd be best for the dinner table or penned up.
He's well fed and very thick!!
Both are beautiful birds! Asking $50 each (or best offer) on both. Call
or email.

After condemnation by the United Nations and Israeli warnings to Syria not to enter the demilitarized buffer zone have done nothing to halt the numerous incidences of Syrian spill over into the Golan Heights, Israel's deputy prime minister Moshe Yaalon warned Damascus on Friday that it would act to defend its sovereignty if the bloody fighting in Syria continued to spill over into the Golan Heights.
"We see the Syrian regime as responsible for what is happening along the border," said Yaalon.
"The current situation in Syria could carry on for an extended and bloody period. If we see that it spills over in our direction, we know how to defend the citizens and the sovereignty of the State of Israel," he continued. "The other side has received a lot of messages recently and until now, has acted accordingly in Syria. I hope that in this incident too, there will be someone who takes this in hand."

Love This recipe,best of al! Have 11 ppl.coming to our mnt. hqome for a skiing weekend and this is what I look forward to preparing again. Will cook the beef a couple days ahead and leave n the wine marinade,then a zip to complete and thnk I can smell it now.........flag if inappropriate
I love this recipe. It takes me about 4 hours to do it properly, including cooking time, but the rosemary is just so amazing that I make a HUGE batch once a year and I'm good for a while. This is an amazing dish.flag if inappropriate
This was great. Made a few modifications based on ingredients I had. I omitted the pearl onions, and substituted a can of diced tomatoes and an extra two tablespoons of flour in place of the tomato paste. I also added a few dashes of fish sauce and some threads of saffron to give it some depth. I added the bacon and shiitake with about 20 minutes left on the clock so the flavors blended with the stew. Served it over mashed potatoes.flag if inappropriate
Delightful! Followed ingredient list exactly but did change method slightly by adapting what I've learned from watching America's Test Kitchen. After sauteeing the chopped onion & carrot, added the flour, cooked & browned the flour for a couple of minutes before adding the tomato paste and the 2 cups wine. Deglazed the pan with the wine, stirring up browned bits and cooking down wine until mixture was syrupy and thick. Then added beef broth & the browned beef cubes with juices, bringing mixture with herbs to a simmer, covered and continued with recipe. This developed a deep rich flavor. Excellent!flag if inappropriate
I followed the recipe exactly with a few minor changes: I didn't use pearl onions, mainly because no one in my family likes them. Also, I added the last cup of beef stock in the quart box at the 1.5 hour mark, and I added 2C of water at the 2.5 hour mark, both times because it was just getting too dry. But the water also toned down the salt, so in the end, it was perfect. Everyone loved it and had two servings, even my mom who doesn't like "beef stew". I served it with the buttered polenta recipe also on Epicurous.flag if inappropriate
Good recipe. I took some tips from reviews, particularly about salt and pearl onions. To Christopher in Chicago here is the site for Julia's recipe: http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/recipe?id=8222804flag if inappropriate
This is an excellent recipe and fun to make. The many flavors in this dish blend together well to make a meal you are sure to enjoy. I did the following things differently: -sautéed about 1/4th lb of pancetta with the beef an let it cook as the beef cooked and then used only one strip of bacon; -served it over polenta (very good compliment; -used inexpensive wine; -sautéed the carrots and mushrooms in butter instead of bacon fat. All of the above worked well with this dish.flag if inappropriate
This was absolutely delicious. This was the first boeuf bourguignon I have ever made. I'll admit that I made a few very minor changes and it did require a bit of work, but it was worth it. I will make this again very soon.flag if inappropriate
I made this over two nights. I used dried sliced shiitake instead of fresh and added them in with the broth. Dried shiitake make their own stock, which I think made this dish a lot richer. I'm not wholly convinced of the pearl onions. They added more texture than flavor, even freshly sauteed. For a stronger flavor, I might use red pearl onions in the future. Also, watch the salt content of the broth; as this dish reduces, it becomes much saltier. Otherwise, this was a great version of this recipe. The broth is rich and thick. It served 6 people with leftovers.flag if inappropriate
I served this on some creamy polenta and loved it. Thankfully, I made it when my husband was out of town so that I could enjoy as much beef as possible!flag if inappropriate

Further to my post about the launch of the Doctor Who adventure games, Mark Johnson who I met on the day spoke to Charles Cecil for Spong. Read a bit more from the games development side by checking out his interview here:
Further to my post about the launch of the Doctor Who adventure games, Mark Johnson who I met on the day spoke to Charles Cecil for Spong. Read a bit more from the games development side by checking out his interview here:
Warning, warning. Fannish stuff to follow, in depth. I got to go to the launch of Doctor Who: The Adventure Games, thanks to the wonderful Culture Vultures – the much shorter article I wrote for them is here – and had a lovely day out in Sheffield.
The day started with three of the official new series Daleks (yellow – Eternal, red – Drone and white – Supreme) and one unofficial one (black, homemade by a bloke in I think Wakefield) terrorising the front of Sheffield railway station.
Some lovely ladies from the BBC were also handing out postcards, pens and posters.
Nick Briggs was hiding behind a little tent with his Moog ring modulator and microphone, doing what practically amounted to Dalek stand-up for a couple of hours (picking on members of the crowd, taking the proverbial out of the community support officers) as people ran up and had their photos taken with the Daleks, tickled their plungers at the insistence of the Radio Sheffield DJ hosting the event, and chased the cheeky pepperpots as they scooted around in the sunshine. "We have replaced all the footballs in Sheffield with Dalek drones controlled by radio signals direct from our home planet – and now… Sheffield Wednesday are doomed!"
Nicholas Briggs, voice of the Daleks
Moog ring modulator, lots of coffee
Sadly Matt Smith and Karen Gillan were trapped out in LA, due to the restrictions on flights caused by the Icelandic volcano, but we did get at least one reasonably accurate cosplay Eleventh Doctor and no less than TWO cold-looking cosplay Amy Ponds. Commitment to the cause. But no ginger hair, real or wig, on the Amys I saw. More Dalek photos here: Daleks In Sheffield.
Those of us who were going to the launch were directed towards a big green double decker bus, ticked off a list and handed laminates as we got onto the bus. Bottom deck, alas, the top was full of jammy kids who'd got the day off school to write about the event for BBC School Report. Our laminates each featured one of the new classes of Dalek – Eternal (yellow, this was me), Drone (red), Scientist (orange), Strategist (blue). No Supremes, alas, with or without Diana Ross. This was to divide us into groups for the rest of the day, so they could fit us all in to some of the smaller spaces at Sumo Digital, the developers, where the launch was held. We were also given confidentiality forms to sign, though thankfully restrictions were minimal. I sat with my new friends, Matthew Reynolds from Digital Spy and Mark Johnson from Spong. Matthew was a fellow Eternal and Mark a Strategist.
When we arrived, we went into the main room, where there was a table laden with tea, coffee, cans of pop, fruit, biscuits, chocolate biscuits… No time was wasted in hanging around, however, as we got a few quick intro speeches, then we were told the plan for the day. This I will go through in the order my group experienced. Each group would get to play the game for about 45 minutes (split into two rooms, with a PC each, so no sharing), attend a Q&A with various people involved in the project, be given a tour of each stage in the development of the games, watch the next episode of Doctor Who early and see a seven minute segment of Doctor Who Confidential that concerned the games. With a break for lunch in the middle. Whew!
Starting with the game, then, as my group did. Bear in mind, only the first game, 'City Of The Daleks', is at a playable stage right now, and it is still in alpha testing, not beta testing or final code. They warned us a) it was subject to change, particularly the difficulty level and b) there might be bugs. The initial screen is not dissimilar to a DVD menu – you choose which "Episode" (game) you want to play, whether you want to start with Act One, Two or Three (sections of the game), continuing your previous game or from the Start (if you select this, it warns you will wipe out previous progress if you have played before). If you begin at the beginning of 'City Of The Daleks', as I did, Amy and the Doctor run into the TARDIS, which is pretty cute to watch. The pair have a series-style bantery conversation about The Beatles, where Amy claims "There's no such thing as a sexy drummer", the Doctor reels off a list of cool things about the Sixties (ah, cultural references for all the family) and bam! They step out into London in 1963. Except it all looks a bit wrong – this is recognisably Trafalgar Square, but it's deserted and everything's broken.
There are fires, cracks, holes, and debris everywhere. It IS 1963, insists the Doctor, but something has disrupted time. In the debris on the ground is a newspaper…Daleks! But this is "impossible", he says, they've never been able to disrupt time like this before. The Doctor needs to fix it, but before he can go any further, a young woman appears. And does a runner down a manhole. Argh! This is where the game proper starts, as the Doctor you have to follow her and find out what's happening. But it's not that easy, the surface is treacherous and many routes are blocked. Plus, there's a red Dalek right there… Move the mouse and you turn the Doctor around and can look at the whole area. Hold the right mouse button down and you can move forwards. Amy will give you hints if you face her and click the left button to "talk". You can also pick up collectables and find out facts about objects, history etc. If you press the middle button of the mouse (there is a keyboard alternative for those without a middle button), you can view and use items from the inventory – you get the sonic screwdriver to get you started, but as in the programme proper, it can't get you in and out of everything. There are deadlock seals, there are restrictions and an internal logic so there is a consistency about what it can and cannot do and in what circumstances.
When you reach something you need to get over, sadly you cannot press a button to jump (fun as a boingy Mario Doctor would be). Instead, you stand in front of it facing straight on and click, and the Doctor will smoothly climb or jump up or down for you and pull himself into place. It's a very natural-looking movement. The Doctor and Amy both walk like their real life counterparts. They have the same gestures and tics. It's very well observed. Especially as both actors have such distinctive movements. There are some restrictions on how advanced the graphics can be, given that the games are developed for entry level computers from 3 or 4 years ago in order to increase accessibility beyond gamers and those with the latest tech, but the characters look a lot better in action than in the screenshots released so far.
The actors' voices sound natural, possibly slightly heightened for audio, but generally it is as like an episode of the series as possible. The music is by Murray Gold, the lighting is designed to look like the show's lighting (heightened realism, with extra colours), and the cutscenes (like in-game movies, basically non-interactive segments that contain dialogue, information etc outside the gameplay itself) are written, directed and played like they would be in live action as part of the TV show. You are the Doctor (and sometimes Amy) the rest of the time, there's no larger-than-life pointing at the screen and asking for your help like in 'Attack of the Graske', it's fairly immersive for all ages. I found my adrenaline pumping quite often. I was being filmed, by I think Doctor Who Confidential, as I repeatedly died on-screen. Apparently they found my reactions amusing. It's very addictive, even when you die. A lot.
In what I am informed by the more regular gamers is stealth gameplay, you have to avoid the Daleks by sneaking past them while they are not looking. With a bit of creative licence, you can see where they are looking as a green "scanner beam" moves around the ground with their gaze. As many of the intended players will not be experienced in this kind of gameplay, the strong visual cue makes it more playable than if you had to watch the eyestalk movements very closely and hide at the same time. There are walls, sandbags etc to hide behind, but you do have to run out at some point, not all hiding places are safe and timing is all.
When you're not running around, hiding from Daleks, using the sonic or interacting with other characters (there are multiple choices of questions you can ask in some situations, as well as just getting hints from Amy), there are short puzzle games, increasing in difficulty as time goes on, that you need to complete to proceed. Thankfully, the puzzles are more cerebral than reliant on fine motor control (I'm dyspraxic and have cerebral palsy), controller mashing or arcane knowledge. Think Professor Layton. I got the hang of rewiring a fuse, for example, quite quickly, but removing a Dalek component took real thought and lots of "deaths". There are no timers on the puzzles or levels, and from what I can gather no limit on lives. Otherwise non-gamers and those at the younger and older end of the spectrum might just give up in frustration. The idea is that three generations of a family can play together, with different members of the group chipping in, so it aims to appeal to hardcore gamers, kids, parents, grandparents all at once, using different elements and styles of gameplay. Oh, and the games count as canon.
For those not embroiled in fandom and its terminology – canon (if there is such a thing in Who, Paul Cornell says not and UNIT dating gives everyone trouble) means these stories officially count as part of the overall Doctor Who timeline, events can be referred to in future and while not playing will not spoil enjoyment of the main show, those who do choose to join in will notice extra detail in the programme. The game designers were consulted when, for example, the new TARDIS set was created, and the final design of parts of the programme incorporated elements required for the games. Each episode of the game is intended to take about two hours to complete and have as much "story" as a normal 45 minute episode of the TV series, with the gameplay taking place in the places where the TV editing would make cuts – it does the detail, and every bit of the action, where the show on television has to keep leaping on.
As a non-gamer testing a near-final version of the game, I was a bit rubbish and had to be helped out on several occasions by Anwen Aspden from BBC Wales Interactive in order to see more of the game in the time available, otherwise I'd never have got on to Act Two. Anwen was brilliant at steering me through without laughing at me too much, and is obviously passionate about the games. Unlike the games journalists, I never got as far as the titular City of the Daleks, Kaalann. I did look over and see how stunning it looked on screen, mind, as well as enjoying the matte paintings of the city when on the tour later. Phil Ford said in the Q&A that he took some pleasure in naming said city, as it hadn't been named before. Nick Briggs leapt in before I could to mutter that it DID have a name – Dalek City. Of course. This goes right back to the first Dalek story, 'The Daleks', in 1963. Both names are rubbish, I'd rather call it "Alan".
I also got to enjoy some bugs of my very own – apparently the ones I discovered only I have managed to trigger so far. The Doctor got himself underneath a taxi, that wasn't supposed to happen, and it looked at one point like Amy had fallen down a hole and only her head and neck were above ground. Sadly not features of the finished game. Unless they decide that my experiences were better than the intended version.
All too soon, we were hauled back out into the main space for our group's crack at the Q&A. The panel were: Charles Cecil (consultant, adventure games bigwig, created the Broken Sword series), Barnaby Edwards (Chief Dalek Operator in the series, several voices in the games), Nicholas Briggs (voice of the Daleks in both series and games, plus other parts in the games), Ian Tweedale (got the game commissioned, Interactive Editor at BBC Wales), Sean Willard (creative director at Sumo), Phil Ford (writer of the first three games/episodes, head writer on The Sarah Jane Adventures, co-wrote the Tenth Doctor special episode 'The Waters Of Mars' with Russell T Davies, also wrote the spin-off animation 'Dreamland' and 'Something Borrowed' for Torchwood series 2).
Here is the audio for the Q&A (MP3):

I will try to get a transcript up soon, it's just a lengthy process as it's 40 or so minutes long. Lots of interesting stuff in there about interactive fiction, gameplay, other games being developed by BBC Worldwide (the commercial arm of the Beeb) for the Wii and DS etc.
After that there were some individual interviews – I'd asked all my game-relevant questions and thought it best not to e.g. grab Phil to squee about Jo Grant turning up in The Sarah Jane Adventures when he was so busy, or to ask Nick about Big Finish or the future of the Cybermen. Then lunch, and on to…
The Tour! Sadly, I wasn't allowed to take any photos or video on the tour of the studios. Completely understandable, as there was a lot of sensitive information around. I wanted to nick the photocopies of sketched storyboards, mind. I've included pictures where available from the official BBC Doctor Who website. We were split further into mini groups, which meant I ended up as the only adult in a group of young teens, and my group was shown around by a legend in his own right, Pat Phelan.
The most exciting bit for me, bearing in mind I know a bit about computer animation and I was in a group of kids, so everything we were told was simplified more than if I'd stayed with the other group of mostly games journalists, was the very first bit. We spoke to the concept artist and a level artist. The concept artist showed us Skaro! And he found out while we were there that the BBC liked his art so much, they weren't just going to use it in-game, but from now on that's officially what Skaro looks like in the show (in the same vein as the matte paintings of Gallifrey in 'Gridlock' informing what was also shown in 'The End of Time').
Skaro! Or more specifically, Kaalann in Skaro.
He also showed us attempts at half-human, half-Cybermen creatures and, whisper it, because they weren't supposed to tell us but he accidentally said the word and anyway I recognised them even when redesigned, mats of a Cyber nature (old school fans will understand this). Shhhh! Don't tell the Beeb I know! I'm guessing they will turn up in the Cybermen episodes of the show, even if it's not until next series. My hardcore fan heart raced when I saw them. However, there was a whole page full of different designs and he wouldn't tell me which one was the final, approved version. My other favourite bit of art was the Librarian Dalek, which consisted of a huge, bronze-coloured version of the new organic-looking Dalek eye.
The Librarian Dalek
Frankly, I could have taken all of it home and put it on the wall. The ice world for the Cybermen in the next episode of the game is beautiful.
We went through all the other stages, including character design (lots of photos and video were taken of the Doctor and Amy, so they could be Rotoscoped, then sculpted in the software and given a "painted" skin), animation, level design, putting the elements into the game engine and so on. All interesting stuff. I enjoyed watching the "sandbox" part of the tour – the programmer here creates loads of different fake environments to run the characters through, so he can see how they behave when colliding with objects, running over different surfaces and through small gaps etc, so they can make adjustments. Also the final stage of the tour, where lead designer Will showed us how he takes all the feedback from testing and all the elements of the game and basically makes it playable, making adjustments of positioning, hints and difficulty and so on and so forth.
After the tour, we were taken into a conference room with comfortable chairs and a big screen to watch the newest episode of the show, 'The Time Of The Angels' a few days before it hit the nation's TV screens. I loved the episode, and River Song again (though I don't intend reviewing it here), but the kids in my group were not gripped at all. They stuck to doodling and filling in their feedback forms. Enjoying a day off school more than Doctor Who fandom, really. When the episode finished, we saw a seven-minute segment of that episode's Doctor Who Confidential, where we were shown more footage of Matt Smith being photographed and videoed for reference for his in-game character. Lots of funny walks, head-slapping, falls and air guitar. I'm sure that man is made out of Plasticine and pipe cleaners. Also we see Matt and Karen mocking each other's movements, the former calling the latter a "gangly fox", and informative bits from the rest of the game team.
Then it was over, sob! Hopefully I'll be able to bring you more news about the game in future. Thanks to Premier PR, The Culture Vulture, the BBC and Sumo Digital for making it happen. The first episode of Doctor Who: The Adventure Games, 'City Of The Daleks', will be available for free download for PC and Mac from the BBC website on 5th June. The downloads will be about 250MB each and use a similar downloading process to that used by the BBC iPlayer – which is so popular amongst Who fans that the first two episodes of the new series of Doctor Who on television have been downloaded over 1.5million times each.

Susette Kelo has finally received a little justice, just not her property.
You may remember Kelo, who battled the town of New London, Conn., all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court over the confiscation of her property through eminent domain. She lost her case, and ultimately her land, to a private developer that wanted to put the land to more productive (read generate more tax revenue for New London) use.
Inexplicably, the U.S. Supreme Court found in favor of New London and the New London Development Corp. Never mind the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution and that bothersome clause that says, "…nor shall private property be taken for public use without just compensation."
So what is Kelo's justice? Though the case was settled in 2005 so far no development has appeared on the land. Reporters that have been there describe it as a sea of mud. Controversy over the court wranglings to essentially steal property from its rightful owners slowed things down, and a recession and credit crisis has, thus far, killed the project.
Meanwhile, that tax revenue that put dollar signs in the eyes of New Londoners hasn't materialized. No ritzy condos or hip coffee shops have popped up. In fact, New London isn't even getting the tax revenue it received before Kelo and her neighbors were run off.
Sometimes you have to revel in the small victories.

Synching iPhone issue
I just synched my iphone 5 with my mac for the first time after installing todoist. The number of tasks is still displayed as being included in each project but when i open a project, it says there are no tasks.
I also synched my ipad mini - no issue. Everything is still good.
All responses
Hi Seema,
So to clarify,
- iPhone & iPad have the same tasks/information everywhere.
- Mac (desktop app or browser?) is displaying correct count, tasks not showing?
If that is the case, if you sign out of the Mac version, and back in, does it change? When you say since first time installing, which are you referring too, iOS or OSX?
Iphone displays number of activities as being populated in each project ie (12) but when you try to access the activities within the project folder, the actual folder says its empty.
This only happens on my iphone not my ipad.
I just logged out and logged back in. All is good.
Thanks for the quick response.

For some people, the word "exercise" means running to the refrigerator to grab a snack before the commercial ends. If this describes you, stop reading here.
For others, exercise borders on obsession – every activity is measured by distance run, speed attained, weight lifted and calories burned. Sound like you? Then read on.
As any wired (or wireless) fitness buff already knows, Bluetooth® technology makes it easy to listen to your favorite tunes while on the move. Strap your MP3 player to your bicep, put on a pair of wireless headphones and off you go. But just like altering your exercise routine can lead to a new level of fitness, so too can using Bluetooth technology in new ways.
A range of wearable wireless fitness accessories – from shoes to watches to, someday soon, clothing – promises to change how you think about exercise. Seeing numbers trickle in to your online fitness log, hearing a synthesized voice call out your progress or simply knowing that your trainer or doctor will see the numbers might spur you to run a little longer, push a little harder, burn just a few more calories.
Are you into exercise goals? Swap your usual wristwatch for one with a pulse monitor and never miss your target heart rate again. Perhaps fitness for you is as simple as a quiet walk in the woods or the more adventurous activity of geocaching. Wherever and however you trek, get an MP3 player with GPS capabilities, and use Bluetooth technology to track where you are and how far you've come.
For exercise maniacs and aspiring former couch potatoes alike, being fit is an increasingly technical pursuit. And with Bluetooth enabled devices, it's becoming simpler and more productive, too.

Had Todoist just for just a couple of days before I bought the Premium. Really like the program! To my surprise however, I had to look around a bit to find out where to click to begin the upgrade process. Most programs are constantly showing or reminding of the upgrade option. Todoist seems to be the opposite. I would suggest the upgrade option be a little more visible or easier to find.
Also a question, is there a way to submit suggestions such as this one without doing what I just did (go through support)?
All responses
Hello Rui,
You're welcome to suggest feature requests in our Votebox: http://todoist.com/Vote/
Regarding your suggestion - that's unusual as we sometimes get the opposite reports - that Todoist reminds you of upgrading way too often. Each time you try to use a Premium feature, a note, search for labels, use a reminder, you should see an alert that this is a Premium-only feature and a link to the Premium payment process.
On the very bottom of the entire Todoist web-app page, there's a red banner saying "Get more done with Todoist Premium" and linking to the upgrade page. There's a separate "Todoist Premium" link in the settings and even on our mobile apps any attempt of clicking on a Premium feature shows alerts and allows you to upgrade right-away.
Please make sure that you're not using any ad- or script-blocking plugins that may block Todoist's modal boxes or popups if you haven't seen any of these.
Best regards,

Soup! It's what's for dinner!
Carole wants to know what our favorite soups are.
I think soup is almost the perfect food: it can be made in advance and heated up quickly. Flavors mingle while it sits. Leftovers freeze well. It is nutritious and doesn't have to be calorie dense. It is forgiving. (I make a lot of pureed veg soups with whatever is leftover in the fridge.)
(I've linked to recipes, but I use them as guidelines for quantities.)
1. Miso – this one doesn't get made in advance but it's so fast, it's a standby.
2. Squash (or pumpkin) – I bake more squash than I need. It freezes well and then I can have soup. I like mine gingery. With apples.
3. Broccoli – this is what I eat when the green veg are lacking in my diet.
4. Green Soup – The recipes I am finding on-line contain potatoes. I don't use them but I guess they would thicken the soup. Greens (various), broth (veg or chicken), ginger, garlic, onion, and, generally, whatever is leftover in the fridge (celery? a few carrots? some mushrooms? peppers?) Blend with a stick blender. Serve with Parmesan cheese.
5. Mushroom – I love mushrooms.
6. fish chowder – I've been experimenting with ways to eat the (leftover) frozen fish. This works.
7. fish curry – This is better. It seems harder than it is. The sauce is blended – so there's little actual chopping.
8. chili – Does this count as soup?
9. french onion soup – This was Dude's favorite.
10. tomato – Easy Peasy. No grill cheese required.

CAPE VINCENT Town residents who belong to a small water district, including a high-ranking state official, appear to be violating state regulations by providing connections to outside users and refusing to report them, according to a letter from the state Department of Health.
In the April 7 letter, the department urged the town to take over control of Water District 2 from its three sanctioned users and expand it to include other properties. If users fail to cooperate with that plan, the town must presume a hazardous designation and perhaps install a backflow-prevention device to ensure outside connections do not contaminate water that flows downstream.
From off Favret Road, the districts water is supplied directly by the Development Authority of the North Country, which bills according to water use and the operation and maintenance of its regional water line. The line runs from Cape Vincent to Brownville along the old New York Central Railroad corridor.
The best solution to this problem is to incorporate those (outside) users via a water district extension with the infrastructure to be owned and operated by the Town, said the letter by Claude A. Curley, assistant engineer for the DOH. Should it be determined that an individual connection serves at least five service connections, that supplier may be regulated by DOH as a public water system.
DOH oversight, according to the letters, would require sampling, submission of monthly reports, oversight by a NYS licensed D or C operator, etc.
Longstanding controversy over outside users in Water District 2 resurfaced recently as the Health Department met with town officials to review a map and a report made in the summer of 2012 by Fourth Coast Inc. The town hired the Clayton firm to investigate connections to outside users in the district. Though the district has only three active users, that study confirmed at least 12 more unregulated connections to outside users since the district was formed in 1997.
The three authorized users of Water District 2s water line connections are Darrel J. Aubertine, who works for the state comptroller as special assistant for external affairs, and his wife, Margaret S., who live on Hell Street; Donald J. Mason, a former town councilman who lives at 4670 Favret Road; and Wesley A. Bourcy, who operates a small dairy farm at 4224 Branche Road.
Fourth Coasts 2012 map of the district shows all three users have established connections with outside users. PVC piping likely was used to build those outside connections, according to Fourth Coast.
The map shows that Mr. Aubertines residence has seven additional outside connections. Three of those connections are on properties he owns; four other users with connections are Terry L. Aubertine, who owns a small dairy farm at 32175 Hell St.; Gene Aubertine, 5112 Favret Road; Patrick Aubertine, 5233 Favret Road; and Frank Giaquinto, who owns a small dairy farm at 32748 Hell St.
Two outside users have connections that stem from Mr. Masons residence: James Mason, 4957 Favret Road, and Mary Lou Bourcy, 4609 Favret Road. Wesley Bourcy has two outside connections associated with his residence on property he owns at 4009 Branche Road.
Some residents did not welcome Fourth Coasts 2012 probe of the water district. One was Darrel Aubertine, who wouldnt let engineers on his property. Some were concerned about the studys intent and whether it might lead to additional charges, said Robert J. Campany, Fourth Coast project manager. But Mr. Campany, who helped design the original district in 1997 as an engineer for Bernier, Carr & Associates, Watertown, said he is confident that connections outlined on the map are accurate.
We relied on information that was provided by others to map out these other connections, he said. They told us where the waterlines were, and we put it down on paper. I think the map is accurate to the extent of information that we were provided, but there could be exclusions or differences.
The town, meanwhile, is taking action based on the Health Departments recommendations to prevent contamination that could be caused by the potentially illegal connections in the district, Supervisor Urban C. Hirschey said.
He said the town will determine whether a backflow-prevention device must be installed in the water district to ensure contaminated water doesnt enter the system from outside connections. Water connections at dairy farms within the district, for example, could cause contaminated backflow to enter the water supply.
Our concern is about the farmers because we dont know if there could be any cross connections that could cause contamination, Mr. Hirschey said Thursday. There could be a chance that contaminated backflow could get into the DANC line, and our concern is the liability that the town has to protect users. The water flowing downstream from the Cape Vincent filtration plant goes past Limerick, Dexter and Brownville.
No agreements are in place for outside users to pay operation and maintenance costs from DANC, according to Fourth Coasts report. The three sanctioned users pay these fees. Mr. Hirschey said he believes that outside users are charged for the costs incurred by the active users.
In Mr. Aubertines case, Mr. Hirschey said, I have no idea how he is splitting it up, but I think hes doing it honestly.
The town likely will not attempt to expand and take control of Water District 2, Mr. Hirschey said, because district users already voiced their opposition to that plan when Fourth Coast completed its study.
Weve been there, and they wont let us on their property, he said. But were going to do as much as we can do to protect the health and safety of the people.
Councilman John L. Byrne III said its unfortunate that users are unwilling to cooperate with the town to expand the district.
If you have one person who is doing something thats not proper, and the rest ask the town to protect them, we cant do it, Mr. Byrne said. We would like to get folks to be voluntarily folded into a District 2 expansion. Because if we did that, we can test the water quality and make sure they have a proper district. But its hard for us to do anything if theyre choosing not to let people on their property.
In a phone interview Friday, Mr. Aubertine said connections to outside users were built in 1997 when the district was formed. The Development Authority of the North Country and Town Attorney Mark G. Gebo both approved the plan for residents to build those outside connections, he said. Construction of those lines was paid for entirely by residents in the district.
Mr. Aubertine said the concern expressed in the Health Departments letter about installing a backflow-prevention device is unwarranted because that device was installed by Bernier, Carr & Associates when the district was established. Property owners hired a Lowville contractor, Roes, Lloyd & Sons LLC, to dig trenches needed to install the lines leading to outside users.
They put the trenches in for us, and we put the lines in, Mr. Aubertine said. We used a lot of our own equipment and provided our own bedding, sand and rock.
Describing the water districts genesis, Mr. Aubertine said, The reason the Development Authority was never part of the district is because they couldnt afford to run 9,000 feet of waterline, so we had to run those ourselves. Everyone knew that, and it wasnt a surprise. We didnt drill a hole in the side of the DANC line and start pilfering water, as John Byrne and Urban Hirschey would lead you to believe. Mark Gebo helped develop the line and did the legal work, and the DOH signed off on it and had no issues.
Mr. Aubertine also said operation charges owed to DANC are paid by outside users, which contradicts what Fourth Coast found in its report. He said that while all connections in the line are billed using one master meter, outside users have water meters to determine how much they use individually.
Theyre paying the same operation and maintenance charge as anyone else its built into the water bill, he said. Every gallon of water that comes through the master meter is paid for.
The Health Departments review of the Fourth Coast study comes as the town is still trying to resolve a discrepancy over how much households are charged for water in water districts 2 and 3.
On Thursday, the Town Council voted to set a public hearing for 6 p.m. May 1 to approve a revised formula for how DANC charges users in both water districts. This came after town officials met last week with DANC to determine a more equitable way to charge users in the two districts.
The roughly 40 users in Water District 3 have received water from the town since 2008. But they still pay operation and maintenance fees for the DANC line because it serves as a backup water source.
The revised rate structure will charge users in water districts 2 and 3 with operation and maintenance fees based on the number of equivalent dwelling units, or EDUs, per household. Previously the town had divided the DANCs maintenance charges equally between water districts 2 and 3. This caused some users to be charged excessively, and some to be charged less than they should. Under the proposal, DANC will bill the town for an allocation of 20,000 gallons of water per day.
At Thursdays meeting, Councilman Paul F. Aubertine and several residents objected to the May 1 public hearing. A water district advisory committee of residents has not yet held meetings to discuss the new rate structure that was agreed on by the town and DANC, Mr. Aubertine said during the meeting. Residents led by Darrel Aubertine decided to form the committee during a special water district meeting March 25, when they expressed concerns over the towns management of water districts.
I feel strongly that we need to start this committee up before the public hearing, Mr. Aubertine said. Three weeks ago, we had a meeting to create this committee, and theres a possibility that they could look at this plan with their brain trust and come back with recommendations. We should set up this committee and give them an amount of time to settle this issue before we have a public hearing.
Other board members, in response, said that two weeks will give the committee enough time to meet before the public hearing to review the plan.
If by May 1 the committee comes back and says it needs another couple of weeks or a month to come up with a better solution for the distribution of expenses, then that will be fine, Mr. Hirschey said.
Darrel Aubertine believes the town has rushed to set a public hearing without giving the committee an opportunity to evaluate the plan.
They told us to form this group and said they would use it as a backboard to decide where we go with this, Mr. Aubertine said. So whats the urgency now to have the public hearing in two weeks? They are rushing to judgment without getting answers to any questions.

Baird Equity Research has analyzed Star Wars: The Old Republic's launch and has come to some conclusions about the game, SWTOR's impact on World of Warcraft and the massively multiplayer online game market in general.
"We view the early success of Star Wars as an indication of a healthy MMO market," said a Baird spokesperson. "While there is likely some shifting of usage from Activision's World of Warcraft, we see a viable market for multiple million-user MMOs in the US and Europe."
The firm estimates SWTOR has a peak concurrent user number around 350,000.
Analysts at another firm, Cowen and Company, say SWTOR has had, "minimal apparent impact" on WoW.
More from the story at gamesindustry.biz (account req'd):
As of December 31, EA has a total of 215 operational [SWTOR] servers, with 124 in the US and 91 in Europe. That compares to 491 European and US servers for World of Warcraft combined.
The story goes on to highlight the industry curiosity surrounding whether SWTOR can maintain its paid-subscription model, a model that, in the macro, seems to be falling by the wayside in the face of free-to-play competition.

Southern Arizona Kidney Walk
WHO: National Kidney Foundation of Arizona's Southern Arizona Kidney Walk Presented by Sam's Club WHAT: The National Kidney Foundation of Arizona will hold its inaugural Southern Arizona Kidney Walk on November 6.
The kidney walk is a non-competitive 5k walk focusing on education and prevention of kidney disease. The event will also feature a free Kidney Health Risk Assessment for Walk participants, their families, friends and the general public interested in learning more.
The Southern Arizona Kidney Walk is on the heels of the first ever Northern Arizona Kidney Walk being held October 22, 2011 in Flagstaff. Kidney Health Risk Assessment The Kidney Walk will feature a complimentary Kidney Health Risk Assessment (KHRA). KHRA is a public education service that measures an individual's risk for developing chronic kidney disease.
After testing for high blood pressure, family history and body mass, at-risk participants then meet with an on-site doctor or advanced practitioner to discuss their health risks and receive educational information.
WHEN: Sunday, November 6 Registration: 7:00 a.m. - 8:30 a.m. Walk Begins: 9:00 a.m.
WHERE: Kino Sports Complex - Kino Stadium 2500 East Ajo Way Tucson, AZ 85713
WHY: Kidney disease is a major health problem in Arizona, the U.S. and around the world. One in 9, or 26 million American adults are estimated to be living with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). And, 90% of them are not aware they have CKD, as early stage kidney disease is typically without symptoms.
In Arizona, it is likely that the life of someone you know is or will be impacted: more than 600,000 family, friends and neighbors have some stage of CKD.
The goal of the Southern Arizona Kidney Walk is to raise awareness in the general public about kidney health, disease prevention and the interconnectedness of other chronic conditions. The event presents an occasion for dialysis patients, organ recipients and donors, the business communities and our Arizona community to celebrate life and create lasting advocacy for our patients.

Johannesburg - The department of health says early indications are that the chances are slim that the South African undergoing a second round of tests for Ebola at a Johannesburg hospital, has the deadly haemorrhagic disease.
The 37-year-old man, who has not been identified, was working as health and safety officer in a mining operation in Liberia, which has been hardest hit by the Ebola outbreak.
Heath spokesperson Joe Maila said the man arrived in the country on 6 August.
"He was scanned as normal routine in accordance with screening protocols for incoming travellers at the OR Tambo International Airport," he said in a statement.
"He was healthy on arrival and the scanner revealed no problem nor raised temperature."
He said the man had no contact with any patients while in Liberia and he was not involved in patient care.
He said the public would be informed of the results as they become available. The results were likely to be available on Monday.
"The country continues to be on high alert," he said.
On 14 August, Health Minister Aaron Motsoaledi said there were no known Ebola cases in South Africa.
A Guinea woman, suspected to have been infected with the virus, has tested negative for Ebola.

would you trade Bogut, Biedrens, and Barnes for Howard and Jamison???
User account number (aid): 123
Posted by 2legit2quit on 2013-01-24 06:00:15
With all the turmoil going on in LA, do we take the gamble and risk our current chemistry for a stab at Dwight???
Although we are losing a young talent in Barnes, his position is always replaceable.
Jefferson can fill in for the time being along with Jamsion and Draymond. Next year Jamsion comes off the books and Rush will be back.
Perhaps a change of scenery of Dwight might be good, just dont know if the Lakers are interested in trading him to a divison rival.

Helly Hansen fleece mid-layer. Spyderco Dragonfly 100 feet of paracord Santa sure is a nice guy! Of course I felt like Santa too giving out a sleeping bag and OR hard shell.
I use the LMF too. 1 strike and WHOOF.
fleece pants
I have a pair of the heavier weight Columbia pants that I like quite a bit. I have mostly used them as an extra layer when lounging around camp in sub-freezing temps. I think they were $25 or so ...
EDC selection
Varies a lot based on season and what pants/shorts/mood I'm wearing. This week it is a Kershaw Blur. Others I EDC are a Kershaw Leek, Dajo Ascent, Gerber EZ-Out, Spyderco Street Beat and ...
My tinder
Dryer lint mixed with Pine Sap.
still in stock
They were still at my Costco last weekend. I picked up a set to try out poles and see how I like them.
Yes, works after being wet
The outside striker does still work after getting wet or muddy. You can just brush off the water or dirt and the matches should still light. The container comes with a couple heat sealed strikers...
I was going to suggest the Moab XCRs that you already have... I think they'll be the next pair of shoes I buy.
extra sock
I've bruised my heels a few times playing soccer. While recovering I found that simply wearing a thick extra sock on that foot helped my comfort level a lot. More padding more better.
works 8/6
Still works, 8/6/09 Thanks!

The University of Hawaii Board of Regents have nominated two people for the vacant president position.
Click here to watch Nana Ohkawa's report.
The two finalists are interim UH President David Lassner and retired Lt. Gen. Francis Wiercinski.
On Thursday, the regents went into executive session and agreed with the Regents Committee on Presidential Selection's two nominees.
For some, they say they were caught off guard and question the timing.
"This kind of came out of the blue for me," said UH student Claire Yakabe.
"All the students are focusing on finals, tests, class load and job searches. For us seniors and perspective seniors...so they cant get in touch with campus leaders," said Matt Ryan, a UH student.
The Board says the Regent's Presidential Selection Committee's search since January was left it in a good place with two solid finalists.
"Each is qualified to lead the university now the question is who will be the best fit who will be the president for the university at this time," said UH Board of Regents Chair John Holzman.
The regents are going to make an effort to have the public involved with the final decision. The finalist is scheduled to be chosen in early June.
Before Lassner was appointed as interim president on Sept. 1, he was the university's first Vice President for Information Technology and Chief Information Officer. He was responsible for designing, implementing and directing a new integrated organization to support academic computing, administrative computing, distributed learning technologies and voice, data and video telecommunications. Under his leadership, Information Technology Services provided campuswide technology support for Hawaii's flagship research university, UH-Manoa, and addressed the statewide needs of the University of Hawai'i System, which provides all public higher education in Hawaii through its 10 campuses and 5 education centers on 6 islands.
Lt. Gen. Francis Wiercinski U.S. Army Pacific Commanding General. He retired on June 4. His 34 years of service to the Army included eight years of commanding in the Pacific. He previously served as the Commanding General U.S. Army -- Japan and I Corps (Forward) and as Deputy Commanding General USARPAC.

The number of bulbs on a fixture is important for both style and function. The number of bulbs can alter the amount of light given off, but so can the wattage of your bulbs. Make sure to keep any width limitations in mind while selecting your fixture.
This allows you to narrow down the finish you are looking for.
This field allows you to narrow your search results by a selected price range. If you desire to view products only within a certain range you can do so.
You can choose to shop by either of the ways below. If you would only like to look at products that have 3D Images then click on the link below and all other products will be taken out of selection.
-CFL bulbs are more and more frequently becoming the norm in the American household. With their long life span and bright shades CFL's are always a good option if you want a fixture that performs and saves you money every year.
-Fluorescent tubes are common in bath bars and come in many different styles such as the most common T4 and T5 bulbs.
-Halogen: these bulbs are known for their brightness and long life spans. Although these bulbs get quite hot they are a good solution if you are looking for ample amounts of light.
-Incandescent or Fluorescent: We have combined all the fixtures that can use either a CFL or a standard incandescent bulb into one simple location so you can choose whether you would like a more traditional setup or an energy saving CFL configuration.
-Xenon/Krypton: Much like their halogen counterparts are extremely bright bulbs with long lifespans that will use a Xenon or Krypton gas inside the bulb.

Skanska USA Building is hosting the seminar to discuss the LEED energy efficiency rating system and its use in the green construction of hospitals and other healthcare facilities.ξ Skanska's Courtney Lorenz says there's a new updated system...ξξ
"...which specifically looks at green building or sustainable design within the healthcare sector.ξ We just wantecd to have a conversation with, you know, relevant stakeholders within the Houston community about what the possible applications are of this program to their facilities or upcoming projects.ξ The new system much more specifically addresses the water use and energy use in a healthcare facility and achieve some of these credits or points, as they're often referred to in the system."
Lorenz is seeing more interest in green building in the past five years or so.ξ She says building green isn't an "add-on"...
"There's so much to do in construction.ξ They're so many different variables that you have to be taking into account at the same time.ξ They look at this green as an addition, but really it's just good sense building and good sense design.ξ At the end you have a more efficient product, you have a healthier building.ξ We're trying to anticipate and minimize or eliminate any mold and mildew concerns and exposure to chemicals that's really unnecessary in the building process."ξξξ
The LEED for Healthcare seminar is set for this morning at 11 at Hilton Garden Inn on Sage Road.ξ
