Fraser Fyvie and Callum McManaman visit primary school to support Latics Literacy.
Wigan Athletic midfielder Fraser Fyvie and striker Callum McManaman visited a primary school this week to support Wigan Athletic Community Trust's Latics Literacy education project.
Latics Literacy uses football to help children between the ages of 8 and ten improve their reading and writing skills and is currently working with over 250 young people a week.
Fraser and Callum visited Brookfield Primary School in Skelmersdale where they took part in a football and sport session alongside 30 children and coaches from Latics in the Community.
"Both me and Fraser were happy to help out at the sessions," said Callum, "getting young people to read more is really important and it's great that the club is working with so many schools."
The Latics Literacy project has been running since 2007 and every year works with 30 primary schools.
The course is run over ten weeks with coaches from Latics in the Community visiting the schools each week to deliver both a classroom and sport session.
As part of the scheme, children get the chance to visit their local library and take part in reading challenges and competitions including writing their own comic strips.
Assessment of the programme has shown that 88% of participants improve their reading ability by the end of the course.
Latics Literacy is funded by the Premier League/PFA Community Fund – for more information please contact Gareth Nolan in Wigan Athletic Community Trust on 01942 488 530 or e-mail email@example.com.

Gallery: U.S. MNT Defeats Ecuador 1-0 After Nagbe's Late Goal
WNT to Play South Africa in First of Two Olympic Send-Off Games on July 9 in Chicago
CHICAGO (May 26, 2016) – The first of two final matches before the U.S. Women's National Team departs for the 2016 Olympics has been confirmed as the USA will play South Africa on July 9 at Soldier Field in Chicago. The match will kick off at 12 p.m. CT and will be broadcast on FS1.
Tickets go on sale to the public Thursday, June 2, at 10 a.m. CT through ussoccer.com, by phone at 1-800-745-3000 and at all Ticketmaster ticket centers throughout Chicagoland (including Walmart stores). [Note: Tickets are not sold at Soldier Field except on the day of the event.] Groups of 20 or more can order at ussoccer.com.
Ultimate Fan Tickets (special VIP packages that include a premium ticket, a custom-made official U.S. National Team jersey with name and number, VIP access to the field before and after the game, and other unique benefits) are also available exclusively through ussoccer.com.
Following the game in Chicago, the U.S. team will take a final break and then regroup for a last match prior to traveling to Brazil. The details of that game will be announced shortly. At the 2016 Olympics, the USA will face New Zealand (Aug. 3), France (Aug. 6) and Colombia (Aug. 9) in Group G play.
The match against South Africa will be the first meeting between the two countries in women's international play and will also mark just the second African country the USA has faced in its history. The Americans have played Nigeria four times, all in World Cup or Olympic competition.
"We're very excited to play a country that we've never faced before as well as get a game against another team that will be competing in the Olympics," said U.S. head coach Jill Ellis. "We are going to really embrace these last two opportunities to play in front of our home fans before we go to Brazil."
Additional Notes:
- The USA is 11-0-0 in 2016 heading into its next two matches against Japan, on June 2 at Dick's Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City, Colo. (7 p.m. MT on FS1) and on June 5 at FirstEnergy Stadium in Cleveland (12:30 p.m. ET on ESPN2).
- The match in Colorado is sold out while more than 20,000 tickets have been sold for the match in Cleveland.
- South Africa, which qualified for its second consecutive Olympic Women's Soccer Tournament, was drawn into a difficult Group E with Brazil, China and Sweden.
- In its first women's FIFA event at the 2012 Olympics, South Africa did not advance out of its group, falling 4-1 to Sweden and losing 3-0 to Canada, but then drawing 0-0 with eventual silver medalist Japan.
- The U.S. Women have played 11 matches in Chicago, but have not played at Soldier Field since 2007.
- The USA has never lost in Chicago, home to the U.S. Soccer Federation headquarters, going 4-0-1 at Toyota Park in Bridgeview, Ill., and 6-0-0 at Soldier Field. Four of those matches came before the massive renovation of the stadium, which originally opened in 1924. The WNT's most recent visit to the historic venue resulted in a 6-1 victory against New Zealand on Aug. 12, 2007.
USA Defeats Ecuador in Copa Warm-up Thanks to Nagbe Winner
FRISCO, Texas (May 25, 2016) – The U.S. Men's National Team used Darlington Nagbe's 90th minute strike and first international goal to earn a 1-0 victory against Ecuador in its second warm-up match ahead of the upcoming Copa America Centenario. [TICKETS].
After a first half that lacked chances, the MNT controlled the run of play in the second half, as Jermaine Jones and Alejandro Bedoya both had opportunities to find the score sheet. Just as it looked like the game would end in a 0-0 deadlock, Nagbe finished headed pass from Bobby Wood in the penalty area to tally his first international goal and give the U.S. a 1-0 victory.
The MNT continues preparations for this summer's Copa America Centenario on Sat., May 28 when it meets a second South American foe in Bolivia at Children's Mercy Park in Kansas City, Kan. The game kicks off at 7 p.m. CT and will be broadcast on FS1, UniMas and UDN [TICKETS].
Goal Scoring Rundown:
USA – Darlington Nagbe (Bobby Wood), 90th minute: DeAndre Yedlin did well to earn space on the right before seeing his initial cross headed up in the area by Ecuador's Juan Carlos Paredes. Substitute forward Bobby Wood kept the second ball alive, winning an aerial battle to knock down for Nagbe who took the ball of his chest before finishing inside Esteban Dreer's right post for the game's lone goal. USA 1, ECU 0 [WATCH] FINAL
Key Saves and Defensive Stops:
USA – Brad Guzan, 7th minute: A headed clearance from Steve Birnbaum fell to Jefferson Montero on the left side of the area. The Ecuador attacker took the ball in stride before hitting a low blast that deflected off Birnbaum and towards the lower left post where Guzan got down with a big hand to turn the ball out for a corner kick.
USA – John Brooks, 14th minute: Catching the U.S. in transition, Miller Bolaños played a clever through ball for Enner Valencia into space, but John Brooks tracked the run before coming through with a well-timed tackle in the box to put the ball out for a corner kick.
ECU – Esteban Dreer, 59th minute: After receiving a through ball at the top of the box, Jermaine Jones hit a blinding effort that saw substitute 'keeper Esteban Dreer receive his first test, standing tall behind the powerful shot.
Next on the Schedule: The MNT hosts Bolivia in its last international friendly before Copa America Centenario at Children's Mercy Park in Kansas City, Kan. on Saturday, May 28 (7 p.m. CT; FS1, UniMas, UDN) [TICKETS].

On Location: Developing the Game in Dallas
The primary goal of the United States Soccer Federation is to grow the game of soccer in the United States. To help accomplish that, we begin a new series today called On Location to share the stories of soccer all over our country leading up to U.S. MNT and WNT domestic competition matches. Today, we highlight the success of FC Dallas' impressive Development Academy initiative ahead of the MNT's match against Ecuador in Frisco tonight at 7 p.m. ET.
For the past nine years, FC Dallas has been at the forefront of U.S. Soccer's Development Academy initiative, which was established in 2007 with the ultimate goal of identifying and developing world-class players.
Launched in 2008, the FC Dallas Academy has become a model for other clubs to follow, not only because of its success in churning out pro players – which includes 14 signed to the FCD pro team – but also for the philosophy created to identify and groom young talent.
With a complex that features 17 fields just beyond the gates to the club's soccer-specific stadium, FCD Academy players have been afforded the same environment and facilities as the professionals. Under the guidance of first team head coach Oscar Pareja, who in 2008 helped launch the Academy as the club's Director of Player Development, the Academy is also fully integrated with the first team.
"At this point our academies need competition, and competition means facing players with different maturity, day-in and day-out," Pareja said. "So involving them with the first team is a priority."
The program is geared towards advancing the individual player, encouraging creativity and free play. Academy players are selected regularly to train with the pro team, providing the kids not only a measuring stick of where they are, but also an opportunity to learn from players and to be treated as a professional. The consistent training and learning has in turn resulted in successful Academy teams. The FCD U-18 & U-16 teams have made the Academy playoffs in every season, and have won the 2012 U-18 and 2015 U-16 National Championships.
Some 30 FC Dallas Academy players have also represented the youth national teams of the United States, Canada or Mexico. One of them is fourth-year FC Dallas midfielder Kellyn Acosta, who in January became the 17th player in Academy history to make his MNT debut when he played against Iceland.
"It was always a dream of mine to become a professional soccer player, so that was the closest step for me – being in the FC Dallas Academy," said Acosta, who is from Plano, Texas. "Seeing the pros next door, it showed me that I was one step closer to becoming like them. My teammates would get asked to go train with the pro team, and then I got the privilege to also go. It helped my development tremondously, and I wouldn't have it any other way."
Pareja, who before assuming the FCD Academy post was an assistant coach for the U-17 MNT, has great appreciation for the club's role in preparing youth players for the next steps in their careers.
"It's a huge responsibility," Pareja said. "We have a responsibility to the first team and the community that they belong to. The responsibility is tremendous because you are the link to the national teams, and to different leagues. Providing a good environment for the selected players is crucial."
And it's not just the players who benefit. Pareja also insists on Academy coaches attending both the pro team's training sessions and to be on the bench during pro matches. As well, Academy coaches interact with the rest of the FCD youth structure.
Complement the three U.S. Soccer Development Academy teams, the FC Dallas Youth Club, which features over 100 boys and girls teams ranging from U-11 to U-19 with over 1700 players, and the FC Dallas Juniors Program, which has over 700 boys and girls players from U-7 to U-10.
But for Pareja, the reason for the club's youth success can't be pinned on one aspect.
"FC Dallas has developed a family atmosphere," Pareja said. "Our ownership believes in the process, the front office works very hard to promote our club, we have coaches who have developed here, and we have players who have tremendous love for the club. All this creates a scenario that makes FC Dallas very special."
We should note that this endeavor is not the first time Dallas has been a pioneer in the growth of soccer in the U.S.
In 1967, visionary Lamar Hunt co-founded the professional soccer team known as the Dallas Tornado in a league that was the precursor to the original North American Soccer League. From 1968 to 1984, the NASL was the top-division league in the country, and the Tornado were the longest-serving team.

A few days ago, Microsoft published The Economics of the Cloud, a whitepaper that has so far not gotten nearly as much attention or consideration as it deserves. Perhaps this indifference is due to a collective freshman flashback on the dreaded "Econ 101" or, to skepticism about Microsoft's importance in the new world of cloud computing. Either way, it is unfortunate because the paper presents some startling new data about the cloud, and, not entirely intentionally, reveals the company's cloud strategy at a level of nuance that we have not seen before.
The paper is by Rolf Harms and Michael Yamartino, a director and manager, respectively, in Microsoft's Corporate Strategy Group. The paper is pointed at "IT leaders", a phrase used 16 times in 22 pages, and has the ostensible goals of sharing the cloud wisdom Microsoft has gained from doing Azure, Bing, Windows Live, and Office 365, and of sharing data gathered and conclusions drawn by Microsoft about the future of cloud computing from modeling done in its Strategy Department.
The numerical data in the report and what the researchers make of it are quite interesting in their own right, but, when calibrated, Da Vinci Code style with the company's history and recent activities, they may reveal a bit more than the authors intended. In any case, neither Ray Ozzie's dreamy "Dawn of a New Day" farewell memo nor Steve Ballmer's buzzy "All In" UW speech and internal memo helped us see this coming.
I admit it, until this whitepaper, I was one of those who took the "All In" stuff for opportunistic hyperbole and simply did not believe Ballmer when he said in his memo, "We need to be (and are) willing to change our business models to take advantage of the cloud." Yeah, given what the cloud will do to the licensed software business, he should be saying that. But, a company that big and successful changing its business model seemed impossible. In short, I thought the cloud would turn Microsoft into the world's biggest dairy farm. Now, I am not so sure.
Biggest is Bestest
The intended takeaways from the paper are summarized like this:
"Private clouds address many of the concerns IT leaders have about cloud computing, and so they may be perfectly suited for certain situations. But because of their limited ability to take advantage of demand-side economies of scale and multi-tenancy, we believe that private clouds may one day carry a cost that is as much as 10x the cost of public clouds."
"Based on our analysis, we see a long-term shift to cloud driven by three important economies of scale: (1) larger datacenters can deploy computational resources at significantly lower cost than smaller ones; (2) demand pooling improves the utilization of these resources, especially in public clouds; and (3) multi-tenancy lowers application maintenance labor costs for large public clouds. Finally, the cloud offers unparalleled levels of elasticity and agility that will enable exciting new solutions and applications."
They are saying that the private cloud will be a niche business for them and a costly specialty for customers - the future is all about big public clouds, due to their dramatic economies of scale gained through lower infrastructure costs, higher utilization, and multi-tenancy cost amortization.
Microsoft must be changing to a new business model, because those things are all bad for their old one. Today they make most of their money from dedicated servers, desktop software, and single-user and single-tenant applications.
Supply, Demand, and Multi-Tenancy
The supply-side economies of scale gained through big public clouds highlighted in the paper are:
- Lower power costs through strategic power grid location and bulk purchasing
- Lower labor costs from fewer employees managing more servers and apps.
- Higher security and reliability due to provider expertise and infrastructure quality
- Higher buying power from high volumes of a few standardized configurations
The demand-side economies of scale are gained through optimizing infrastructure utilization in these five areas:
- Randomness of end-user access
- Time of day patterns for applications
- Industry-specific variability
- Multi-resource variability
- Uncertain growth patterns
- About these factors, the paper says,
"A key economic advantage of the cloud is its ability to address variability in resource utilization brought on by these factors. By pooling resources, variability is diversified away, evening out utilization patterns. The larger the pool of resources, the smoother the aggregate demand profile, the higher the overall utilization rate, and the cheaper and more efficiently the IT organization can meet its end-user demands."
In other words, the bigger the cloud, the more the users, and the more diverse the applications, the greater the economies of scale on the demand (customer/user) side will be.
Finally, the report breaks out the multi-tenancy economies of scale like this:
- Fixed application labor amortized over a large number of customers.
- Fixed component of server utilization amortized over large number of customers.
The whitepaper elaborates on these factors in great detail to make a compelling case for big clouds and then goes on at length to impugn the private cloud and provide reassurance that the common IT concerns of security and compliance about the public cloud would soon be non-issues.
The report's big finish is an analysis of two points of probable market and the conclusions that should be drawn by "IT leaders."
We can do this the easy way or the hard way.
The first behavioral point is that "Decentralized IT (also known as 'rogue IT') will continue to lead the charge." In support of this as follows:
"Many prior technology transitions were led not by CIOs but by departments, business decision makers, developers, and end users - often in spite of the objections of CIOs. For example, both PCs and servers were initially adopted by end users and departments before they were officially embraced by corporate IT policies. [...]
"We're seeing a similar pattern in the cloud: developers and departments have started using cloud services, often without the knowledge of the IT group (hence the name -rogue clouds‖). Many business users will not wait for their IT group to provide them with a private cloud; for these users, productivity and convenience often trump policy. [...]
"CIOs should acknowledge that these behaviors are commonplace early in a disruption and either rapidly develop and implement a private cloud with the same capabilities or adopt policies which incorporate some of this behavior, where appropriate, in IT standards."
In other words, Hey, CIO, get with the program or we will help the business users go rogue on you.
Go public. You'll feel better.
The second behavioral point is that "Perceptions are rapidly changing," supported by the observation continued SaaS successes are building trust in the cloud that will only increase, and closed out with this carrot and stick:
"In summary, while there are real hurdles to cloud adoption today, these will likely diminish over time. While new, unforeseen hurdles to public cloud adoption may appear, the public cloud economic advantage will grow stronger with time as cloud providers unlock the benefits of economics we discussed [earlier.] While the desire for a private cloud is mostly driven by security and compliance concerns around existing workloads, the cost effectiveness and agility of the public cloud will enable new workloads."
In the final section, the paper, this last point is reinforced in this way:
"For businesses of all sizes, the cloud represents tremendous opportunity. It represents an opportunity to break out of the longstanding tradition of IT professionals spending 80 percent of their time and budget -keeping the lights on, with few resources left to focus on innovation. Cloud services will enable IT groups to focus more on innovation while leaving non-differentiating activities to reliable and cost-effective providers. Cloud services will enable IT leaders to offer new solutions that were previously seen as either cost prohibitive or too difficult to implement. This is especially true of cloud platforms (Platform as a Service), which significantly reduce the time and complexity of building new apps that take advantage of all the benefits of the cloud."
In other words, Why don't you IT people leave all that infrastructure management to someone else and do something new and innovative?
What are they really saying?
They seem to be trying to talk IT out of implementing private clouds, or any other kind of internal IT infrastructures, so that means that Microsoft is moving away from selling stuff directly to IT. But, if the public cloud is the future, does that mean that their new customers will be cloud service providers, like telcos or Rackspace, or Salesforce.com? Maybe not.
It appears to me that the end-game for Microsoft is to become the biggest public cloud in the world, comprising AZURE PaaS, plus Office, Bing, and Windows Live SaaS, and partner applications re-engineered as multi-tenant services. They put it like this:
"We have over 600,000 partners in more than 200 countries servicing millions of businesses. We are already collaborating with thousands of our partners on the cloud transition. Together we are building the most secure, reliable, scalable, available, cloud in the world. [...]
"Microsoft and our partners helped bring PCs to over one billion homes and desktops. Millions of developers and businesses make their living on PCs and we are fortunate to play a role in that. [...]
"Now, we have a vision of bringing the power of cloud computing to every home, every office, and every mobile device. The powerful economics of cloud drive all of us towards this vision. Join Microsoft and our partners on the journey to bring this vision to life."
So, their customers remain the same -SME and enterprise IT. Their functional products remain the same - applications and enablers for custom and partner applications. What changes is the way that functionality is delivered to those customers, with a large portion of private IT and its supporting vendors evaporating and transferring value and power to Microsoft and their really big honkin' cloud.
In the whole carefully written whitepaper, there was not a single mention of other cloud service providers and how Microsoft will partner with them, because they may not. It is conceivable that Microsoft would license Azure to, say, hosting services currently based on Windows, but I think it is unlikely. There is no reason to think that Microsoft doesn't believe that the economics are telling them that they can dominate the new world as much or more than they did the previous one.

Regal chain buys Lawrence's Hollywood Theaters; speculation begins on whether upgrade is in the future
If I were at the movie theater pulling contraband Walgreens candy out of my coat pocket and eating $7 popcorn (I haven't yet perfected the process for sneaking a popcorn popper into the theater), this may be the point in the movie where the heroic-type of music starts to build.
There's growing speculation — but no confirmation yet — that a knight on a white horse is going to come dashing onto the scene and make some improvements at Lawrence's Hollywood Theaters on South Iowa Street.
Regal Entertainment Group, the country's largest theater chain, has purchased the Hollywood Theaters chain. The deal closed on April 1.
The acquisition has launched speculation that Lawrence's Hollywood Theater location is going to get an upgrade at the very least. The Hollywood Theater at 34th and Iowa streets continues to be the only chain-operated theater in the city. Liberty Hall in downtown is an independent theater that shows a lot of the independent productions. If I wanted to be a snob, I would say it shows films, not movies. (I would explain the difference, but I was trying to figure out how to sneak a popcorn popper into my History of Film class when that subject came up.)
Local officials at the Hollywood Theaters location weren't saying much about their plans. I've got a call into Regal's corporate office, and I will let you know if I hear anything interesting.
But I can tell you it is a location several members of the development community are keeping an eye on. They have seen indications that a project may be on the horizon.
It would make sense because it certainly appears that the Lawrence theater is facing stiffer competition from several upscale theaters in Kansas City, particularly the multi-screen theater at The Legends in nearby Wyandotte County.
Hollywood built its Lawrence theater in 1997, and recently people have been asking why the company hasn't made improvements as the area competition has stiffened. Well, the recent acquisition by Regal may have provided some clues. Simply put, Hollywood — based in Portland, Ore. — was a pretty small player in the movie theater business. It had 43 theaters with a total of 513 screens. Regal has 537 theaters with about 6,800 screens.
The acquisition also made it clear that Hollywood was pretty heavily leveraged. Regal paid $191 million in cash for the Hollywood chain, and of that, $167 million went to pay off Hollywood's debt.
Regal, on the other hand, posted a strong financial year in 2012. Due to debt management and some acquisitions, the company posted earnings of about $145 million, up more than 250 percent from a year earlier. One of Regal's chief competitors in the theater industry is Kansas City metro-based AMC Theaters. So, maybe Lawrence can benefit from a rivalry. Plus, you have to figure that at least one person with Regal connections knows Lawrence. For years, Philip Anschutz, one of KU's most successful alumni, has been the largest shareholder of Regal.
It is too early to say what Regal may do in Lawrence. But it sure appears this may be Lawrence's best chance in awhile to see an upgrade in its largest movie theater. Personally, I hope they at least add more electric outlets near the seating area. Sneaking a popcorn machine in there is one thing. Sneaking an extension cord in is another.
UPDATE: I spoke briefly Thursday afternoon with Regal spokesman Russ Nunley. He said the company doesn't currently have any capital improvement plans to announce for the location. He said company officials had been on site at the Lawrence property, and found it to be a high quality facility that was well located.
"We are impressed with Southwind," Nunley said. "We think Southwind is an exceptional theater."
Nunley said the company has kept the same staff in place as it transitions to Regal ownership. Nunley said the company's current plans are to keep the Hollywood Southwind name in place for the theater.

The AARC Award is intended to support the academic-research careers of junior-level faculty in the field of communication sciences and disorders (CSD). Unlike a traditional research grant that only focuses on research, the AARC Award funds proposals that include both a teaching and a research component.
Up to ten awards of $5,000 each will be granted. One of ASHA's strategic objectives is to increase the generation of clinical practice research needed to support evidence-based practice. In support of this objective, two awards will be dedicated to applications that focus on clinical practice research. Clinical practice research in CSD is distinct from research aimed primarily at understanding the mechanisms underlying normal or disordered processing. Rather, it refers to research that focuses on the prevention, diagnostics, treatment, implementation, and outcomes measurement of communication, swallowing, and balance disorders. Clinical practice research, due to its applied nature, has the potential to impact clinical practice in the near term.
Applicants work in conjunction with mentors to develop mentored teaching and research plans tailored to the applicant's career stage. The plans—which propose specific teaching and research activities that will be completed under the guidance of the mentors during the 18-month funding period—are submitted as part of the AARC application. Examples of acceptable activities include, but are not limited to
Mentored teaching activities, such as
Mentored research activities, such as
In addition, the AARC award offers a professional networking opportunity for those who attend the ASHA Convention. AARC awardees are invited to attend a reception exclusively for ASHA's research education program awardees, participants, and faculty. For those attending Convention, this is a great opportunity to meet fellow AARC awardees, learn about and meet participants in ASHA's other research education programs, and network with the experienced faculty who have been involved in the success of these programs.
View current and former AARC Award recipients.
The following eligibility criteria apply:
Applicants must complete an online application form, upload several PDF documents, and submit the entire package by the established deadline. See the application instructions for details on the required documents and application deadline date.
Questions? Please see the AARC FAQs. Still have questions? Contact the Academic Affairs and Research Education unit at firstname.lastname@example.com.

The US doesn't know how the ET's will react in case of a nuclear war. ET's have sometimes made ICBM sites inoperative to show the power they possess. The ET's are the big question mark. They have warned the world not to engage in nuclear war. Nobody is sure what they will do if humans are stupid enough to try it. It could be the final sign that humans are not worth saving as they are willing to destroy billions of their own species and also destroy much of the planet as well. They may decide to terminate the experiment as a failure.

Beckenham saw the unveiling of new May Queens from around the borough over the Bank Holiday weekend.
At a sun-kissed crowning at Croydon Road Recreation ground, the girls adorned flowers and traditional garments to celebrate spring.
The youngsters hailed from Shortlands, Coney Hall, Elmers End, Beckenham, London May Queen Twins, Bromley Tegan Common, West Wickham, and Eden Park areas.

Tiga and Diplo Headline Hard Miami at Grand Central March 24 UPDATE
We already broke the news that Hard was returning to the Magic City -- only this time it's going to be a proper club event at Grand Central on Thursday, March 24.
Now the lineup has popped up. And while Simian Mobile Disco in nowhere in sight (not that we expected it, the duo is hosting a party at Eve the same night), there are a few big, bright names: Canadian DJ-producer Tiga and Mr. Never-Seems-to-Leave-Miami Diplo. Seriously, when can we start referring to the Mad Decent boss as a local DJ?
Also on the bill: DJ Mehdi, Busy P, SebastiAn, Brodinski, Destructo, Mumbai Science, and Tinie Tempah.
UPDATE: Hard's Facebook page confirms that SebastiAn has been added to lineup.
There is a promise of additional "special guests," and this being the weekend of Ultra Music Festival, we wouldn't be surprised if a few big names pop in to say hello while behind the decks.

5D Christmas fun for kids at the Westfield
How's about Christmas in not 3, not even 4, but 5D? That's what the Westfield Shopping Centre is offering up for the little 'uns this holiday season (that sounds very cinema voice-over like doesn't it?) with Elbow Saves Christmas.
Produced by Irish company vStream, the 5D action is, in fact, 3D action but with a couple of added twists. Unfortunately, no smelly-vision though and no middle of the road Dad music. The fourth dimension comes courtesy of a wind, lights and elf dust fun and the fifth is the fact that your kids will appear in the films themselves.
Their picture will be included in the stereoscopic 3D animation and will form a crucial part of the story as Elbow (the protagonist, not the band) attempts to save Christmas. Pocket-lint hasn't been given the low-down on whether he does or not, be we imagine it's all smiles at the end.
Apparently "Pixar quality", the 7 minute film was developed by five animators, four developers, a producer and a writer/director using the company's patent-pending Mirror 3D Personalisation Software.
vStream co-founder Andrew Jenkinson said: "We are delighted to be creating this world first 5D grotto experience with Westfield London and Westfield Stratford City. It has been an amazing journey from concept through to animation to final delivery.
"Westfield will be using our patent-pending technology and we could not have a better client or project to launch it. We hope Elbow the Elf will have many more adventures in the years to come… the moon has been mentioned."
Elbow Saves Christmas is on show until Christmas Eve at both Westfield locations in the capital. It can take 50 people at a time so, hopefully, the queue will be a little less agonising than the traditional shopping centre Santa's Grotto one....

Water Main & Street Work to Begin on July 15 on Clark, Austin & Keeney Streets
Starting July 15 for eleven weeks, the city will be contracting the water main replacement and street resurfacing CIP II project, which consists of three street segments on Clark, Austin and Keeney Streets. Parking restrictions will be required in order to complete the work. Any sprinkler system should be identified and marked with a flag by the property owner prior to the start of construction to prevent damage to the sprinkler system.
This project includes replacement of the existing deteriorated water main with new ductile iron pipe as well as replacement of the existing water services.
The street resurfacing portion of the project involves curb replacement, as needed; roadway base repair; replacement of asphalt surface from curb to curb; and selected replacement of sidewalks and driveway aprons.
As part of this project, the sidewalk on the west side of Chicago Avenue will be widened to ten feet between Church Street and Clark Street. The water main work and street resurfacing are part of the cty's continuous program to renovate and improve the water distribution system and roadways throughout the community. The funding for the project will be from the city's Water Fund and Capital Improvement Fund.
The locations which have been included as part of this contract, in sequence of construction, are: • Clark Street (Orrington Avenue to Chicago Avenue) • Austin Street (Ridge Avenue to Custer Avenue) • Keeney Street (Hartrey Avenue to Dodge Avenue)
Construction will begin the week of July 15 on Clark Street with the entire project expected to be fully completed by the end of September. The actual date when construction is planned for each street will be noted on the temporary NO PARKING signs posted 48 hours prior to the start of work. The construction activities will create some inconvenience for abutting residents, but workers will attempt to minimize these inconveniences. Construction zone daytime NO PARKING restrictions will be intermittent throughout the duration of the project; evening and night time parking (5:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.) will always be available. Street sweeping and/or neighborhood parking restrictions will be waived for a one-block radius around the construction zone when temporary daytime NO PARKING is in effect.
CONTRACTOR The contractor for this street improvement program is A. Lamp Concrete Contractors, Inc., 1900 Wright Boulevard, Schaumburg, IL 60193.
CITY SUPERVISION The project is under the supervision of the City's Engineering & Infrastructure Division. The Resident Engineer in the field will be Brian Frank, who will be directly responsible for all aspects of the construction. If residents have any questions or concerns, they can contact the Resident Engineer at 3-1-1. Questions about the street projects in general should be directed to Sat Nagar, P.E., Senior Engineer, at 3-1-1.
Sewer Work Set to Begin July 22 on Prairie Ave.
The City of Evanston Utilities Department has contracted with Insituform Technologies USA, LLC (Insituform) to rehabilitate approximately 2,175 feet of 48" diameter brick sewers on Prairie Avenue between Central and Grant Streets. The work will take place in stages from July 22 to August 15, weather permitting. Parking restrictions will be required in order to complete the work.
The rehabilitation work includes installing a cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) liner inside the existing sewer main. When completed, there will be a new fiberglass pipe installed within the old existing brick sewer. This process is generally less disruptive and the work can be completed much faster than if the sewer were excavated and replaced.
The resins used in the lining process are not new. They are the same resins used in the fiberglass industry for many years. These resins contain a chemical called styrene that hardens when heated. Although styrene is not a pleasant odor, it is not dangerous at the levels at which people can detect it. If a resident smells the styrene while the contractor's personnel are working in the area, do not be alarmed. To help prevent the smell from occurring in buildings and houses, pour a gallon of water into each basement floor drain. This keeps the "trap" full and prevents sewer gases from coming into the buidling/house. Because the water in the drain trap evaporates, this practice should be done regularly.
The sewer segments will be rehabilitated starting at Central Street and working south towards Grant Street. In general, the contractor's work area will be at the manholes located on Prairie Avenue at the alleys mid-block between the east/west streets. No parking will be allowed in and around each work area for 2 to 3 days including nights. Residents are asked to please pay particularly close attention to the city signs to minimize the impact to traffic.
On each block, the contractor will insert the liner through the manhole to rehabilitate the sewer to the north and then the next day insert the liner through the manhole to rehabilitate the sewer to the south. It will take approximately 16 hours each day from the time they begin the installation of the liner until the liner is fully installed. When the liner is inserted into the sewer main in front of each property, it will seal the building/house sewer service connections and prevent them from flowing into the public sewer. The contractor will perform by-pass pumping of the sewer services as necessary to prevent any sewage from backing up into properties. Once the liner is completely installed, the contractor will cut the liner where the sewer services are located, thereby reestablishing flow from each property to the public sewer.
CONTACT INFORMATION This project will be monitored and inspected by the City of Evanston Utilities Department. Please direct any questions to Mr. Mark Steinbuck, Sewer Division Supervisor, 847/448-8219.
