Glasgow Subway Pre-and-During Modernisation
Glasgow, Scotland - Gap74 - Tuesday, November 11th, 2008 : goo
[previous] :: [next]
Ok folks, I'm a long-time lurker who's finally outing himself, so to speak,to post some pics I've been meaning to scan for quite some time.
I must preface this posting with the fact that I'm afraid these are all the work of another that I'm scanning, but I only do so in the hope that at least a few of you go out and buy the book they're taken from (which is Glasgow Subway Album by a chap called George Watson, published by Adam Gordon. It's probably a bit of a minority interest subject, this, but I know at least a couple of you on this site will enjoy these!
The author was lucky enough to be working for the Greater Glasgow Passenger Transport Executive during the last years of the old underground, and he documented it in photos in the run up to its closure in May 1977 - although it actually closed a few days earlier than planned due to the general rundown nature of the system! He also captured a few interesting scenes during modernisation, although he was to leave his job before the system reopened - was that 1980 as I recall?
Anyways, on with the pics, and the first lot are interiors....

Wow, what photos! I really know nothing about Glasgow, but at least now I know a lot about their train-system! Er, or what their train-system used to be like :-D
greyeyedeve: 11th Nov 2008 - 19:11 GMT
thanks for the link - I have fond memories of the 'clockwork orange' and its really interesting to see what it like before it was modernised.
Plum Blossom: 11th Nov 2008 - 19:12 GMT
Even though the stations are grubby, there's a certain charm to the trains themselves.
Flying Colours: It's not changed any!
Ravennoir: 11th Nov 2008 - 21:33 GMT
ahhhhh clockwork orange:P
not enough decay for my liking but the pictures is nice:P
Felix Connie: 11th Nov 2008 - 21:39 GMT
see, the camera man is distracting them while the woman in the background steals that little kid
tiny pink stars: 11th Nov 2008 - 21:49 GMT
Wonderful... I love the feeling of seeing familiar places looking so different.
Puffpastry: 11th Nov 2008 - 21:50 GMT
These are really cool! The red of the trains sort of impacts the whole tunnel...makes it gritty-warm instead of gritty-cold. Very neat.
Rebecca: Wow, it's changed so much! Amazing.
Peter: 12th Nov 2008 - 00:20 GMT
WOW. entries like this tend to be some of my very favorite on this site... good work!
after reading Glasgow Subway, i see that this modernization took place from 1977-1980, so that helped put a date on these photos, which i was curious about.
that wiki link is a pretty good read, actually... helps put the imagery in this post into good perspective.
once again, well done! i think i can speak for us all when i say wed love to see more!
Avioris: 12th Nov 2008 - 14:16 GMT
Wonderful that you posted these. Such, almost documentary, pictures are hard to come by and are pretty interesting
Ender: 20th Nov 2008 - 14:26 GMT
This is simply marvelous. Thank you for sharing these photos. Contrary to what someone said above, the Clockwork Orange doesn't look much like this anymore, though I can just barely recall riding it in this state as a child. Anyway, a nice glimpse from the past. Thank you again!

I travelled this wonderful subway system, which is over 100 years old now, every day to school, from the age of 5 from the south of the city to the west. I loved it and my favourite part was the smell. I think it may have been the creosote in the tunnels, if I'm right, and it was the only perfume I used to want to wear when I grew up.Not that I ever did.
Varinki: 14th Dec 2008 - 04:46 GMT
The Glasgow Subway was opened in 1896 and the equipment dated from that time. It was cable operated until 1935 when it was converted to electricity. Also there were no turnouts on the line and a crane was used to move the equipment on and off the network. Oh and those small rails on the wall in the first photo power the lights on the train.
maureen robertson: 9th Jan 2009 - 04:34 GMT
40 years ago as a 15yr old my friend and I used to jump on the subway at Merkland street and cross the river to Govan to go to the pictures. We weren't allowed to, Govan being a foreign country and considered far too rough. The beauty of it was the subway was so fast and direct that there was no chance of getting caught. We'd come back to Merkland Street and get big bags of chips at the Merkland St chippie. What memories. I'll never forget the subway smell or the rattly old coaches with dim lighting. I live in Australia now but I sometimes still dream about the subway and running down the stairs when we heard the subway rumbling in the tunnels. I also well remember sitting in the Indian Restaurant under the Central Bridge or Govan pictures and feeling the vibration from the subway underneath
dubdoc: 9th Jan 2009 - 12:58 GMT
Is there any available information in the book these images came from regarding the photography? I'm just curious as to how wide the lens was that some of these were taken with. There is some interesting distortion in some of the shots, but they don't quite look fisheye. Anywho, just curious if this information might be around somewhere.
Nicholas: 12th Feb 2009 - 00:53 GMT
Wow, amazing pictures. Thanks a lot. I've never noticed the Merkland Chamber before. I think i'll head that way soon and go back and forth until i can see/hear it. Quite a spooky thought that its still there, Completely deserted.
Myke: 12th Feb 2009 - 12:49 GMT
It's been a while since I visited Citynoise and I'm glad I happened to catch this posting. I'm only in my 20s so my first experience on the clockwork orange was in the '90s. Very interesting photos, thank you for sharing them with us!
AshleyAutherley: 12th Feb 2009 - 13:36 GMT
I think the first picture looks very scary. The stop looks like its very dark before the train comes, I think the trains lights it up. Also those trains have only two carts which I think is kind of weird because our train in New York have more and larger carts then that. Also i think the carts are very short of small because people would have to duck in oder to enter the train.
Serhio: 17th Feb 2009 - 14:44 GMT
Terrible photos! It looks like dark dull vault. Moscow metro is the best and most beautiful in the world. Moscow metro stations are palaces in comparison with this awful basement.
Richard: 5th Mar 2009 - 20:34 GMT
Just back from my first visit to Glasgow, and I took a few trips on the 'Clockwork Orange' while I was there. The trains are great, like shrunken versions of London tubes (and built by the same company). Would have loved to have travelled on it in the last days before modernisation - am I right in thinking the trains were about 80 years old by then? There's still a bit of a smell which reminds me of London Undergrounds 'drain' (Waterloo & City line). Great pics!
robbie: 24th Mar 2009 - 22:04 GMT
moved away from govan a long time ago butthe photo,s brought back the feeling and the great smell of the subway
Alison: 3rd Apr 2009 - 10:13 GMT
Wow, these photos are beautiful.
I live just opposite Cessnock station and I take the tube almost every day. I suspect the photo of the long passageway at Cessnock is a different entrance to the one currently used. The current entrance/exit is situated under a tenement block, so was presumably always covered over; however, at the far end of the platform there is a mysterious doorway which is sometimes open. I think it leads up to that passageway. I'm always tempted to explore, but I'm slightly too chicken...
Eric: 14th Apr 2009 - 11:34 GMT
ITS FAST,and brill way to get around any city beats trams,Glasgow is sitting on a goldmine of disused tunnels and rail lines that could be expanded onto,cities would die for that,
Peter: 14th Apr 2009 - 13:03 GMT
disused rail lines, you say? anyone got any photos of that sort of thing?
Josie Harken "Canada": 9th Jun 2009 - 01:52 GMT
Great photos. Used to love standing at the entrance of a subway station just to get a whiff of that wonderful smell. Does anyone have any photos of old station toilets? Remember the beautiful one at the Central Station? No, I'm not weird, the architecture in those places were magnificent. It's only after your gone from your hometown that you appreciate this sort of stuff. No, not toilets, any architecture.
john brannan: 21st Jun 2009 - 11:16 GMT
i used to dog school all day on those old underground trains. used to walk from possilpark to cowcaddens to get on it then ride it till nearly home time. the they closed it for few years. when it did re open it just was not the same, the noise and smells were all gone. the old photos bring back memories thanks for that as i now stay in north wale and miss glasgow a bit.
Alexis: 28th Jun 2009 - 21:34 GMT
I've been hunting for photos of the old Glasgow Subway on the net for ages ! I'm 40 yrs old , and my Mum used to take me on the Subway, before it closed in the early 70's. I cant really remember what it looked like, all I remember is it being darker & my Mum dragging me on to the platforms crying & screaming because the extremely loud noise of the old trains approaching terrified me and standing in the small island platforms, I used to think I'd get pushed onto the track! I still use the subway often , but,now I stand at the bottom of the stairs , until the train has stopped ! My Mum knows I blame her for the great fear I have to this day of using the Glasgow Subway ! Great photos , loved them !
Jen: 2nd Jul 2009 - 17:30 GMT
The remains of the Merkland station are a blink and you miss it event but on rare occasions you can catch a glimpse of the frame work of the old platform. I found this picture of what it looks like these days on flickr - http://www.flickr.com/photos/flickrphotos/313364737/in/set-72157594406395293/
I have to say I'd quite like it if Cessnock got it's natural light back!
Cathie: 13th Jul 2009 - 19:19 GMT
Can someone tell me if the entrance to Bridge Street underground as moved over the years. I'm convinced that when I got off at Bridge St from school, I had a short walk down the road to where I lived in Eglinton Street. I was in Glasgow recently and the entrance seems to be situated on a corner now. Is my memory playing tricks on me? I'm convinced it isn't...can someone solve the mystery.
brian: 28th Aug 2009 - 11:47 GMT
With regards Merkland st station chamber, it is in fact still there. Heading towards Govan the chamber is just visible from the inner circle platform about 50 metres in. it is easier to see when the tunnel lighting is on (not a usual occurance during the day) The chamber itself is now just a big empty cavern, The original fittings are now in the Transport Museum. I work for the Subway and when I walk through the chamber it brings back memories of my last journey just before modernisation as Merkland St was the final stop. To Cathie, Bridge st station is still in the same place although the front door has moved. Bridge St also now has a electricity sub station which probably throwing you a wee bit.
Calum: 27th Sep 2009 - 23:14 GMT
I used to live acrosS the road from cessnock too. And shut up russian person nae wan asked for your opinion.
Radar: 15th Oct 2009 - 22:55 GMT
As Jen has posted the Merkland Street station chamber is still present. A group called Hidden Glasgow had the chance to go down and see the remains of the old Merkland Street station and walk the tunnels 2 or 3 years ago. The link to the photo in Jen's post allows you to see some of the other pics that Dazzababes took that day.
Andy : 31st Dec 2009 - 00:50 GMT
Love the pix, used to use this every day from Cowcaddens, I even remember the older brown and cream livery... shows his age.... Thank you very much for posting these.
robbie: 22nd Jan 2010 - 14:48 GMT
the pic`s are brilliant,i remember the atmosphere in the old underground,always made me relaxed,always an adventure to go down there in the dark,a different world all on it`s own,i used merkland street to join my ship at merklands quay in the early 70`s,nice memories.
robbie: 23rd Jan 2010 - 11:33 GMT
i remember in the old carriages the seats were leather,red?,and the clear light bulbs were polished spotless.
Primitive Person: 21st Feb 2010 - 22:18 GMT
Wow...amazing. The system really had deteriorated badly by the seventies, but what incredible atmosphere - gorgeous photos. It's a shame so little of the original appearance of the stations was retained - all the seventies brown and orange looks a bit gruesome these days. Still, I'm glad the Subway has survived, and seems to be thriving.
Alan Macdonald : 19th Jul 2010 - 06:10 GMT
Great Site. When I was a boy we used to call the old system Noddy's Magic Roundabout given the tiny scale of the system and that adults generally had to bend down to get in.
jim young: 10th Oct 2010 - 01:28 GMT
I was "B"in Greenfield street .govan. Ithought Glasgow had the best public transport in the world this includes the Subway.Tramcars & Buses.Imoved to New Zealand in 1952,need I say,the transport system then was dreadful,much better now of course. I do miss the Subway of course.
George Watson: 4th Dec 2010 - 12:54 GMT
Thanks for the positive comments on these pictures (which are subject to my copyright). I am told that no other picture book quite captures so well the atmosphere of the old subway.
donald kirkbride: 26th Jan 2011 - 17:15 GMT
my granny and granpa(mums mum and dad) lived in shields road near the paisley road and shields road subway was our nearest subway
donald kirkbride: 26th Jan 2011 - 17:20 GMT
also interested in seeing a photo of shields road station exterior and interior do any of these photos exist? seem to recall there was a closed down petrol station beside the shields road station
donald kirkbride: 26th Jan 2011 - 19:04 GMT
just read john brannons comment that he used to dog school and ride the underground all day how did you manage to get away with sitting there all day without getting thrown off by the guard?
donald kirkbride: 26th Jan 2011 - 19:59 GMT
just noticed that in photo 10 buchanan street the train on the left is train number two and in photo11 the train on the right is also train number 2 is there any reason for this or is it because the trains were lifted from the tunnels every night perhaps?and therefore ended up on different circles
donald kirkbride: 27th Jan 2011 - 12:45 GMT
i can vaguely remember the adverts in the subway the only one that sticks in my mind is the scottish daily express ad with a roman type figure holding a torch cant remember whether the ad was on one of the advert boards or whether it was on the train itself perhaps?
jimmy drain kp punter: 31st Jan 2011 - 18:03 GMT
i remember one day back in the 60s my brother jumped down from the platform to get a french fag packet i was missing on my fag packet collection, wit a guy aff his heed.
J Hampton to Hugh Mac Phail: 1st Mar 2011 - 21:45 GMT
Hi hugh i played in the group with you many years gone by The (Fugitives) am I right.hope to hear from you, Jimmy Hampton.
alex: 13th Mar 2011 - 22:49 GMT
Bill, the plug was pulled on 11 Stanley place as some nutter started to write bile. I just found this site and hope that for the enjoyment of the folk on here it stays a looney free zone.
Paul Roberts: 3rd Apr 2011 - 08:42 GMT
THis is an absoloute gem this is pure history well done.
Joan: 27th Aug 2011 - 03:32 GMT
Happy to find your site. I spent a week in Glasgow in the spring of 1974 and was amazed at the subway system. Quaint beyond belief. I loved it.
Bill from Govan: 15th Nov 2011 - 21:45 GMT
I remember the first time they renovated Govan X station, it was back some time in the 50s and an alternative exit was built across the road from the main entrance and the front of the old entrance was tiled. It was a very exciting thing for an 8 year old. I have not been back to Govan Since 1985, when I passed through and could not bring myself to get of the bus. The subyway I loved, and why was it that the smell of the underground was the thing that I really remember, the swoosh the train made as it entered the station. The fairy tale castle of St. Enoch's station was a masterpiece of Glasgow decor.
Sally dorrian. Brady: Love your site.
Steve from Boston, Mass., USA: 6th Jul 2012 - 00:59 GMT
Thanks for posting the photos! I visited England and Scotland in 1985 and, because of my interest in public transport systems, made it a point to visit places I had read about such as Baker Street Station in London and the Subway in Glasgow. Since this was pre-Internet, I had only seen images of the Glasgow Subway in an Encyclopedia, so it was interesting to see the system in person (even if it was post-modernization) and also to ride the route!
My family was intrigued by the photographs I photocopied and brought with me. I remember seeing an original carriage on display in one of the stations but I cant recall which station. The current stations are much brighter and more pleasant now!
As an aside - I really liked Glasgow (and Edinbugh, the Highlands, Loch Ness, Loch Lomond, and all the other cities, towns and rural areas of Scotland I visited). Everyone was very friendly, but, unfortunately, I did not know it would be a bank holiday when I booked my trip so several sites in Glasgow were closed! And, no, I did not manage to see "Nessie"!
If you visit Boston, Boylston Street Station on the Green Line STILL retains its original design from 1897. I understand that the original lines in Budapest, Hungary and Buenos Airies, Argentina have also remained relatively untouched.
Bob Southgate: 20th Sep 2012 - 20:27 GMT
There is a new film out now filmed by Glasgow University in 1974. It has been released by Video 125 (www.video125.co.uk)
Jim Smith: 28th Sep 2012 - 16:19 GMT
Just found this site during research for story I'm writing about Glasgow in 68 - 70. Absolute magic. I got the subway from Partick to Goven every day for 3 years during my apprenticeship at Howdens. If Serhio from 2009 is still around I now live in what was an Eastern european a country that was under Russian rule for 50 years until they were kicked out. At least the houses in Glasgow above the underground in those days were livable in and the the people were free.
Chic McGowan: 12th Oct 2012 - 12:45 GMT
Maureen, you are a coupel of years older than me. We lived above Fraser's pub at Rissel St and Vine St. maybe I saw you duck under the ticket window???????
catherine oliver: 13th Oct 2012 - 09:04 GMT
loved your pics used the subway often, agree about the smell
catherine cherry : 13th Oct 2012 - 09:06 GMT
used my married name prior but maybe cherry will ring a bell from watt street hence use of the subway on a regular basis. once again great pics
George Watson: 9th Mar 2013 - 18:02 GMT
Look out for a second edition of my "Glasgow Subway Album". This includes a selection of photographs of the modernised system as well as a few new photos prior to and during modernisation. The book is due to be available around May 2013. See .... www.RodneyTheRoutemaster.com
stevie: 24th Apr 2013 - 16:02 GMT
took the subway to hillhead school in the 70s.loved it,& the smell...magic!!

Russia's snowboarder Vic Wild was euphoric after winning Olympic gold in the men's parallel giant slalom at the Rosa Khutor Extreme Park… just minutes after his wife Alena Zavarzina took bronze in the women's event.
In the final, Wild, whose gold was Russia's first ever in snowboarding, finished ahead of Switzerland's Nevin Galmarini, while Slovenia's Zan Kosir claimed bronze.
Wild was half a second down to Galmarini before the second run of the final, but he blazed back to win by two seconds as his Swiss rival ran wide on the turns.
"It's incredible to have won a medal along with Alena," said Wild. "If just one of us has success it's great," said Wild.
"For both of us to have success on the same day is just incredible. I don't know how this happened, it's too good to be true."
Zavzarina paid tribute to her American-born husband, who was granted Russian citizenship in 2012, a year after their marriage.
"Vic was right about having success when one gets success and the other does not, it's not really so great," she said.
"I'm just very happy that we both did and I'm very happy Vic got gold because this is what he worked for…. He did an amazing job. He deserves it, I'm really happy and I'm going to cry now."
Defending champion Jasey Jay Anderson of Canada – competing at his sixth Winter Games failed to make the quarter-finals and finished 14th overall, two places behind Switzerland's Philipp Schoch, won gold at the previous two editions in in 2002 and 2006.
Vancouver silver medallist Benjamin Karl of Austria was another big name to finish down the rankings, finishing in tenth place.

In mid-January 2009 were presented at last available to 280th in mid-March 2009 - the Arctic Cooling Accelero XTREME GTX Arctic Cooling made himself some time with the brand "Accelero XTREME" a good name, is not it, for example, the Geforce 8800 GTX has a very good cooler of the model tested here certain similarities. Accelero XTREME GTX 280 is as the name says Kompatiblel the GeForce GTX 280 and GTX 260 (65nm) and with a few "restrictions" even for GTX 285 and GTX 260 (55nm).
Product Description :
Accelero XTREME GTX 280 is equipped with three 92 mm fans, as opposed to 80 mm fans of the previous generation. These are controlled by PWM of the graphics card and turn rpm zwischen 1000 and 2000. Rich 5 heatpipes help with 6mm diameter of the radiator to a cooling capacity up to 250 watts. According to the manufacturer so that the card is 31° C colder than the stock cooler. Despite these brutal cooling back down, the user must not in terms of volume. Because with just 0.5 sun, the fan quieter than the entire 4.5 sun Nvidia fan of the original GTX 280.
Technical data summary :
- Extreme Cooling capacity - up to 250 watts
- Three ultra-silent 92mm fan with PWM silent cooling fan
- Bearing Fluid Dynamic Bearing
- Speed range 1000 - 2000 rpm
- Air flow 81 CFM / 138 m3 / h
- Efficient heat distribution over five Heatpipes
- Patented fan holder prevents hum
- RAM and voltage regulator
- Pre-applied Arctic Cooling MX-2 thermal compound
- SLI compatible
- Weight 680g
- Compatible with nVIDIA GeForce GTX285, GTX 280, GTX 260
Package / Delivery :
The Transparent plastic packaging is a guess before they buy, what kind of Kuhlmonster it. Once that is easily removed to open packaging, come next to the Accelero yourself the following things to the fore :
- A large back plate (only for GTX 280 and GTX 260 65nm)
- 2 long-RAM cooler (just enough for GTX 280 and GTX 260 65nm)
- Voltage regulator (only for GTX GTX 280 and 260 65nm)
- Large heat sink for the chip NVIO
- Various thermal pads
- Screws and spacers
- Arctic Cooling case badge
- German manual (complete only for GTX 280 and GTX 260 65nm)
On delivery you can now see more clearly what I have mentioned at the beginning of my review. The manufacturer advertises a compatibility page for the 285th GTX A note that only the 65nm version of the GTX 260 is supported entirely missing, too. So it is assumed that the GTX 260 is supported in 55 nm as completely. Accelero itself fits so great on the two cards, but unfortunately, fit for the GTX 285 and GTX 260 55nm neither the voltage regulator, nor are the RAM cooler sufficient. The instructions, however, lost not a word. And so you should buy in the fall necessarily more cooler, since the voltage converter to be absolutely cool. The GDDR3 RAM may not need a heatsink, if you want to overclock the graphics card, however, should not it still do without.
In my case, the Zalman ZM-RHS1 are RAM-cooler. For the voltage converter I have an old Pentium 1 CPU heat sink sawed, as the cooling me the Zalman cooler was too small. Other tests have shown that the voltage converter you can even reach 100° C, because I wanted to play it safe. At that point there's so clear swabs for the Accelero. Particularly annoying is like saying that not a word about missing Arctic Cooling heatsinks for GTX 285 and GTX 260 55nm loses.

|Broncos rack up personal bests at DCS Twilight, districts Wednesday
|Written by Wauneta Breeze
|Wednesday, 13 May 2015 20:27
Sydnee Harchelroad passes the baton to Alejandra Almanza. The relay was the last event of the meet and finished as it started sprinkling. WP finished second behind Chase County. Also running the relay was Faith Simpson and Lesley Towery. (Diane Stamm | The Wauneta Breeze)
By Diane Stamm
The Wauneta Breeze
The Wauneta-Palisade track team appears to be peaking at the right time. Heading into districts Wednesday, WP set nine personal records at Friday's Dundy County-Stratton Twilight.
Sure to make coach Dawn Doetker happy were bests by seniors Sydnee Harchelroad in the 200, Lesley Towery in the 400 and Gage Crowell in the 110 hurdles.
Other PRs were Tyler Carl in the discus and shot put, Ellie Lee in the shot put, Tyler Davis in the 400, Faith Simpson in the discus, Lanee Nordhausen in the long jump, Willis Christner in the shot put and Cash Yearous in the 3200.
Doetker said the Twilight was a great meet going into districts.
"As a team, we are starting to peak at the right time," Doetker said. "Everyone worked really hard (at the meet). The boys did very well for the numbers we have. I'm proud of everyone. The girls' side saw great competition."
Though Towery didn't win an event, she was third in the 100, second in the 400 and second in the long jump.
With her time in the 400, Towery jumped into the top five on the Class D charts.
Towery also runs a leg on the Broncos' 4x400 relay with Harchelroad, Simpson and Alejandra Almanza, which is knocking on the door of the Top 10.
The Broncos finished second in the event Friday behind Chase County, which has one of the top 4x400 relay teams in Class C.
Simpson won the discus and 100 hurdles, while finishing third in the high jump.
Simpson increased her discus PR by seven feet and moved up to the top five in Class D.
Harchelroad's 200 time has improved steadily throughout the season and her PR tops a time set last year at the same meet. Harchelroad was second in the 200 and fifth in the 100.
Hannah Nordhausen picked up team points with a fifth place finish in the discus and shot put.
Crowell's PR was good enough for fifth in the 110 hurdles and Yearous' PR in the 3200 gave him an eighth place finish. Carl was sixth in the discus.
Also placing for WP was the 4x800 relay. Team members included Davis, Christner, Brody Nordhausen and Yearous.
Teams from Arapahoe, Elwood, Eustis-Farnam, Hayes Center, Hitchcock County, Maywood, Medicine Valley and Southwest joined WP Wednesday in Arapahoe for the D9 district meet. Results will be available in next week's Breeze.
The State Track Meet will be May 22-23 in Omaha.

It wasn't twerking out
Does anybody actually care about this? I don't really, but couldn't resist the headline.
Anyway, Smiley Virus and Liam Helmsworth have apparently called it quits. So sad. I hate it when people who are too young to be engaged in the first place break up. Wait, no, I like that. Anyway, given their history of breaking up and making up, it won't surprise me if they get back together. But really, who cares? As long as Smiley's career of rubbing up against things while half-dressed as her producers live-autotune her flourishes, I'm happy. Everyone should hone their best talents and do what they love.
Maybe he was tweeked about her twerk as this People.com article suggests.
It could have been Miley's suspicions about Helmsworth's extra-curricular activities outside their relationship as E!Onlinesays.
If you care, pipe up and leave a comment.

|Patent application number
|LED LIGHTING STRUCTURE - The present invention relates to an LED lighting structure, which includes a plurality of lighting units arranged and mounted to a base. Each lighting unit includes a seat, which has a surface to which a plurality of heat dissipation fins is mounted and an opposite surface to which a circuit board is attached. The circuit board includes a plurality of light-emitting diodes. The lighting units are arranged to allow the light-emitting diodes to face outward. In this way, all the light can be projected outward or toward a direction where lighting is desired so that no light would be wasted and the lighting efficiency and the convenience of use are improved.
|LED (LIGHT-EMITTING DIODE) LAMP WITH LIGHT REFLECTION - The present invention is primarily related to a LED (Light-Emitting Diode) lamp with light reflection, which provides both the forward and the backward illumination via the configuration of reflection plate with one side or both sides regularly distributed with a plurality of protruding or hollow geometric spatial blocks, for example, pyramids or cones to enable both light transparency and reflection, and thus enlarges the practical space of prior LED lamp illumination and provides more utility and convenience.
|STRUCTURE OF LED (LIGHT-EMITTING DIODE) LIGHTING BULB - A structure of LED (Light-Emitting Diode) lighting bulb has a fin base, a pillar, a circuit board, an electrical connector, and a cover. The fin base forms a bore extending through a central portion and the bore has an inner circumferential surface forming an internal thread. The pillar has an outer circumferential surface forming an external thread, and the pillar is received and retained in the bore through threading engagement. The circuit board is mounted to an end of the pillar, and the circuit board carries an LED and conductor wires. The electrical connector is recessed to form a hollow configuration having an inside surface forming threading, and is coupled to the pillar through threading engagement while electrically connected to the conductor wires. The cover is mounted to the fin base. The mounting arrangement of the pillar and circuit board facilitates replacement of the circuit board and maintenance.
|STRUCTURE OF SAFETY LED (LIGHT-EMITTING DIODE) LIGHTING TUBE - A safety LED lighting tube has a light cover, a base, a circuit board, and two electrical connectors. The light cover has a semi-circular hollow body made of a moldable material and has two side edges extending inwards and recessed to form rail channels. The base has a semi-circular body made of a moldable material and has a lower surface from which two hooked flanges project for slidable engagement with the rail channels formed on the side edges of the light cover. Ribs are formed on inward edges of the hooked flanges. The circuit board is received between and is supported by the ribs formed on the inward edges of the hooked flanges of the lower surface of the base. The circuit board has at least one LED. The electrical connectors are respectively mounted to opposite ends of the base and are electrically connected to the circuit board.
|STRUCTURE OF LED (LIGHT-EMITTING DIODE) LIGHTING BULB - An LED (Light-Emitting Diode) lighting bulb includes an electrical connector, a base, a circuit board, and a cover. The electrical connector is recessed to form a hollow configuration having an intermediate section forming threading. The base is formed by molding a moldable material.
|LIGHT-EMITTING DIODE (LED) LIGHTING STRUCTURE - An improved light-emitting diode (LED) lighting structure includes a body of LED and a light reflection layer. In a preferred form of the lighting structure, the LED body includes a dual-pin through-hole LED, which has a coupling section for mounting and positioning. The light reflection layer is formed on a rear portion of the LED body and extends frontward to form a hood-like configuration for reflection of light. In an alternative form of the lighting structure, the LED body includes one or more surface-mount LEDs, each of which has electrodes respectively soldered to a circuit formed on a board. The LED body is deposited in a hood having an opening. The hood has an inside surface on which a light reflection layer is formed. As such, advantages in terms of elimination of light leakage, reduction of loss of light energy, increase of LED lighting performance, ease of use, and stability of mounting can be achieved.

Lovely apartment, clean and well equipped. Only downside to the whole place was the bed. If you like a really firm bed this is the place for you! Personally it was too hard for me.

Excellent apt in a lovely position . Just a 2 minute walk to Dawlish warren and the great walks next to the sea and railway line. Apt is fitted to high standards and is very warm wich is good as we went in January. Well recommended.

Everything was clean. The apartment was lovely and spacious. Plenty of room even with 4 adults and 2 kids. But please change the mattresses. They are hard and uuncomfortable. But this was the only thing I could find wrong with it. Beautiful location.
Confirmed guest, 2015-09-28
The apartment is large enough for 4 adults and a baby to share comfortably. The 'kids' room easily accommodated our travel cot. There is a large bathroom with a bath and shower. The main kitchen/dining/living area is a good size and the kitchen has everything you need for a short stay. I'd definitely recommend a stay here!

I would have given this rental 5 stars but for two things.
There is no Wi-Fi - In this level of accommodation you expect there to a certain standard of facilities and Wi-Fi is one of them. Get Wi-Fi installed! It's not difficult and in this day age, it will be a deal breaker for many people and they will go elsewhere.
Change things that are broken, even if it is mid-season. The ironing board cover in this apartment was disgusting! It looked like someone had been taking pizzas out of the ovens at Pizza Hut with it. Turning it inside out doesn't cut it! You've been found out!
Overall the apartment was clean(ish) but the beds were rock hard. I probably won't stay there again.
Confirmed guest, 2015-08-29
Would definitely go back!

Could have had more crockery/cutlery for 6 people.
A lock on the bathroom/toilet door would have been nice.
I would have expected to have had enough toilet rolls to last a week
Ironing board was in bad state.
Previous occupiers had not really washed up very well and I would have expected staff to have fully checked the cleanliness of these and the apartment before we arrived.
Very good but toilet smelled a little.
Confirmed guest, 2015-08-01
Lovely but expensive
A great holiday!
Confirmed guest, 2015-07-24
Had a lovely time at the Red Rock Apartments, they were well located , train station nearby. Set in a peaceful location and well equipped. We did have a minor problem with the toilet that was quickly resolved and we were given a voucher for one of the local pub restaurants for the inconvenience. I was holidaying with my two teenage sons and elderly mother and found the apartments and surroundings suitable for all ages. Will definitely visit again.
Confirmed guest, 2015-07-17
Great holiday. Location excellent and staff are really friendly. Only negative (as others have mentioned) is the lack of Wifi but no major problem.

Shapeways: Bring your creativity to life in 3D http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php Shapeways: Bring your creativity to life in 3D I am new to shape ways but not to 3D modeling http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=29871&th=5669#msg_29871 <![CDATA[Hello, I am a 3D modeler that is currently looking to get into CAD.

 I have a few questions before hand...

 1. What is needed/Required to get a 3D model ready for printing?
 2. How big can a model be? In both inches and centimeters
 3. I am looking to prototype a miniature line here on shape ways. Would anyone have ANY suggestions on doing that.

 My current 3D program is Blender 3D - does anyone have any suggestions for a easy to use Cad program that is cheap?]]> Ben Stanley 2011-06-28T19:16:54-00:00 Re: I am new to shape ways but not to 3D modeling http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=29893&th=5669#msg_29893 <![CDATA[Hey buddy,
 Great to hear your keen to get started in 3D printing. I will say one thing to get you started and that is, read all the information that shapeways has to offer as they have thought long and hard about explaining what is required and relevant to make your models 3D print legal. As far as CAD software is concerned, any 3d modeling software is fine as long as you are able to export the geometry in a shapeways supported file format or have it translated in a 3rd party application. As far as i can tell shapeways offers more file formats for uploading geometry than any other 3d printing company.
 All the best,
 Leigh]]> MuseumofSmallThings 2011-06-29T03:59:18-00:00 Re: I am new to shape ways but not to 3D modeling http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=29898&th=5669#msg_29898 <![CDATA[Hi Ben,

 Welcome to Shapeways

 Most of your questions can be answered via the support pages. Start with the FAQs, then check out the Materials and finally head to the Tutorials. The Materials comparison sheet gives a side-by-side comparison of the materials, the maximum print dimensions and more.

 As long as Blender exports any of the following formats, STL, VRML2/97 (.wrl), COLLADA (.dae), X3D and OBJ files, you can use Blender for your modelling.

 As for prototyping miniatures, probably the best material to go for is Frosted Ultra Detail (aka FUD). Many people use the materials Shapeways offer for their final miniature products.

 One of the most useful peices of software is NetFabb Basic. Netfabb has checking, repairing and measuring tools to help finailise your model before uploading.

 Cheers,
 Paul.

"Absolutely delighted with all aspects of Tiny Prints; beautiful design, sturdy and elegant card stock, actual card exactly reflects web design and personal details, extremely rapid delivery, robust packaging and excellent customer service (live chat) when I had a question on the order. I would recommend this website to all and will definitely be a repeat customer."
"Card turned out beautiful. Image quality of the picture we used in the back was perfect. Cards arrived within a few days of ordering."
"We recently moved and sent this card to friend and family. We received so many complements on how cute the card was and that they loved the photo on the back. I love the front because it feels like a cute/fun neighborhood and it truly represented our new home and our new neighbors/friends."
"Love how these postcards turned out. Sending postcards with our new address and a quick message to our friends and family was nice. The best part: no envelopes!"
"The bluish background color had a more retro feel when I received it, but it looked great. Have had nice feedback from friends who received it."

Reichert, the former King County sheriff, said he felt confident later returns would go his way. He wants a third term in the Eastside swing district.
In the 8th Congressional District, Democrat Darcy Burner was locked in a dead heat with U.S. Rep. Dave Reichert, R-Auburn, after holding a solid lead earlier in the night.
Reichert, the former King County sheriff, said he felt confident later returns would go his way. He wants a third term in the Eastside swing district.
No Democrat has been elected since the district was formed in the 1980s, but it is growing increasingly liberal and voted for Democrats for president in 2004 and 2000.

Incumbents won by large margins in the state's other congressional districts.
At a Burner campaign Election Night party in Bellevue, supporters were pumped up as early results showed Burner in the lead.
Jaime Smith, a spokeswoman for the Burner campaign, expressed optimism. "But we know that it will be a couple of days before we really know where the race is going," Smith said.
The lead narrowed as King County counted poll votes into the night.
Reichert said he was not anxious and that early returns were similar in 2006.
"I feel very, very confident we're going to hold this district," he said.
Burner came within three percentage points of beating Reichert in the candidates' first contest two years ago. Reichert had a small lead last night in Pierce County, where voters comprise about 20 percent of the 8th District. In 2006, Reichert won King County by about 300 votes and Pierce County by 7,000.
Reichert said he was frustrated by the slow vote counts in King and Pierce counties. Around the country, he watched many of his former Republican colleagues lose seats to Democrats. But he said voters think of him as an independent.
"I do feel confident," he said last night. "We were here in this position early in the race last time and slowly gained ground as time went on. I fully anticipate winning King County again as we did last time, and of course having great support from voters in Pierce County."
Each campaign spent millions this year, much of it on television advertising in the last few weeks before Election Day. Burner raised $3.7 million. Reichert raised $2.3 million. Both got plenty of support from their national party organizations and some independent groups, as well.
Burner tried to paint Reichert as ineffective and attempted to tie him to President Bush, especially in his economic policies and position on the Iraq war. Reichert supports renewing the Bush administration's 2001 and 2003 tax cuts and backed Bush's temporary troop buildup in Iraq.
Reichert pointed out Burner's lack of public-service experience — she's never held elected office — and predicted she would support higher taxes.
Burner kicked off her campaign in May by publishing a plan to end the war in Iraq. Her report, which was co-authored by former military leaders, supported diplomatic solutions as a way to bring U.S. troops home.
But the focus of the campaign shifted at the end of the summer toward the economy, and the two candidates clashed over each other's tax plans. Burner put out an economic plan she said would cut taxes for middle-class families by suspending some of the Bush tax cuts and increasing the standard minimum deduction.
Reichert said Burner's plan would raise taxes for most 8th District families.
Reichert, 58, has been in Congress four years. Before that, he was King County sheriff for nine years, capping nearly 30 years in the King County Sheriff's Office. He's widely known as the man who led the team of detectives investigating the Green River Killer serial-murder case. He was sheriff when Gary Ridgway pleaded guilty to killing 48 women.
In Congress, Reichert has worked on legislation regarding law enforcement and homeland security. He has taken moderate positions on education and the environment, even earning endorsements this year by the national and state teachers unions, which generally endorse Democrats.
Burner, 37, grew up in a military family and graduated from high school in a small town in Nebraska. She attended Harvard University on a scholarship, earning a bachelor's degree in computer science with a "special field," or concentration, in economics. After college, she worked at a variety of high-tech companies, including Microsoft.
Criticized by Reichert as lacking experience, she had held no public leadership positions before her first run for office, except for a short stint as president of her homeowners association. Between her 2006 and 2008 campaigns, she also served on the Committee for a Two-Newspaper Town.
Burner's Carnation-area home burned to the ground in July, in the middle of her campaign. The fire was blamed on a faulty electrical lamp.
In Seattle's 7th Congressional District, Democratic U.S. Rep. Jim McDermott defeated Republican challenger Steve Beren. In the 2nd District, U.S. Rep.

I've recently been enjoying riding gravel roads. I follow the guitar ted site and Mtb Bike radio and there are various opinions on gravel riding (not new...so what's the big deal), gravel bikes are silly, etc. was thinking of this on my ride yesterday and thought I would share my ramblings...maybe they will stir, or continue to stir your passion.
I think it's gaining popularity, in part, because us roadies have been getting bored of the same old thing, and have sought adventure. I know I have. I use to try new paved routes and would have to re-route around the gravel. I sometimes went on those roads with my skinny tire bike with 100+ psi tires...I liked it, but felt beat up so didn't do it much. My steel frame bike with 32mm tires, and my cross bike with 40mm tires 'enjoy' that same gravel so much more.
I like the idea of gravel bikes. In comparison, stiff and light road bikes are great on the road. And yes you can ride the same bike on gravel. Mountain bikes are great on trails...and they can do gravel, but it's a lot if bike for gravel. I've road all types of bikes on gravel. I find a steel frame with 32mm tires at the right psi is perfect on my areas roads. Yes I can ride almost anything on these gravel roads, but why not use something that enhances the experience...
I like the sound the of these gravel 'races', and look forward to them gaining popularity. I do one in Ontario, Canada...Paris to Ancaster (very different from trans-Iowa, Kanza, etc.).
That's it for now...looking forward to hearing about your experiences.

Frequently Asked Business Questions
What is Business Reputation Management?
Business Reputation Management involves successfully removing and/or suppressing any misleading, outdated, or inaccurate information from a business's online search results. The idea is to remove the unwanted content from the first page search results by replacing it with new positive content. Once the new content is built out on proprietary platforms, professional websites, and social media platforms, it must be properly maintained and managed to prevent the unwanted links or articles from resurfacing. Reputation911 develops customized strategies for each business to help restore, promote, and protect their professional business reputation.
Why Do I Need Business Reputation Management?
Running a business comes with a load of responsibilities. There is a lot to take care of and a business's online image can often get neglected. However, a company's online image is often what consumers first look to when considering a new product or service. With the internet so easily accessible through mobile devices, tablets, laptops and home computers, consumers are doing their research before they buy anything, from their next meal to a new vacation home. If your company is not ranking well in the search results, or a lot of negative information is showing up about your company, you are handing potential new customers right over to your competitors. Failing to effectively manage your online reputation will lead to losses in sales, positive press coverage, as well as hiring ability.
Creating and maintaining a positive online reputation is an ongoing, continuous process essential to the success of any business, both large and small.
"Reputation911 did a great job removing the reviews on Vitals within the 1st week and then continued to monitor and track our online reputation to ensure no further attacks were being made against us."

Over here, once I have bought a newspaper I am allowed to do anything I like with it, up to and including lining the cat's litter box with the editorial section.
Past experience suggests that it would be an utter waste of time to suggest that site owners should think about how human visitors will respond to their schemes, with particular reference to ways of overriding the user's clear preferences.

All-State girls basketball: Cameerah Graves developed into one of the state's top defenders
TULSA — Cameerah Graves learned her lesson two years ago during pregame warm-ups.
Her routine included a 1-on-1 session with Edmond Santa Fe teammate and neighbor, Courtney Walker.
Walker, who went on to play at Texas A&M, was on offense and Graves was on defense. But then Walker made a move, infuriating Graves.
"She would do a move on me and make me look stupid and everybody was watching us," Graves said. "She would put a move on me, but I was like, 'Yeah, never again.' Now I know."
But that routine helped Graves improve tremendously and develop into one of the state's top defenders and continue an impressive run of point guards at Edmond Santa Fe. She finished her impressive four-year career Wednesday night in the Oklahoma Coaches Association All-State Game at the Mabee Center.
"It (was rewarding) because this year I was named defensive player of the (Metro Athletic Conference)," Graves said of guarding Walker. "I think her being there those years and me having to guard her out of everybody on the team; it helped me in the long run because my defense is pretty (good)."
Graves averaged 3.3 steals and 5.2 assists per game last season while leading the Wolves to the Class 6A state semifinals.
She has signed with Oklahoma Baptist University, where her defensive skills will prove invaluable for the rebuilding program.
"Cameerah is a special player, a special person and is going to be really good at OBU and do really well," Edmond Santa Fe coach Paul Bass said.
Bass, though, has been fortunate. Graves is the most recent of a long lineage of star point guards to come out of Santa Fe.
Bass started with Christina Yarbrough, who went on to play at Central Oklahoma. Jimi Blagowsky, who plays at Air Force, followed with a stellar career.
Then Graves came along.
"It just seemed to be when that last one would graduate, here come that next one," Bass said. "I noticed her skill set (early on). She was probably one of the quickest first-step girls I've seen in awhile."
Now, Santa Fe waits for another point guard to emerge. It's likely the Wolves will find one, just like when Graves burst onto the scene her freshman year.
"When you look around the entire city, you don't see a coach keep getting blessed with players and players," Graves said. "The point guard is position is one of the most important positions. He's a really lucky guy."
But replacing Graves' defense will be the biggest challenge.
And perhaps the most important.
"Really, I've got to find a point guard that can defend like her," Bass said. "One of our strong points is we defend very well and she was probably the best defender we had."

The collection of marble Roman sculptures reflects the connoisseurship and generosity of one of the Museum's major donors, Wright S. Ludington.
The Museum Collection
Since its founding in 1941, the Santa Barbara Museum of Art has developed a unique identity with strengths in the following areas: Ancient Art, Asian Art (Chinese, Japanese, Indian and Tibetan), French and English 19th and early 20th Century Art, 19th and early 20th Century American Art, International Modernism, Works on Paper, Photography, and Contemporary Art.
Spanning 5,000 years and consisting of over 2,600 objects in a variety of media, the Asian Art collection showcases works of art from China, Japan, Korea, India, Southeast Asia, and the Himalayas.
The depth of the Museum's collection of European art is in its holdings of 19th-century French painting, although there are a handful of fine examples of 18th-century French and British painting, mostly in the genre of portraiture.
Spanning approximately two centuries--from the mid-18th to the mid-20th century--the core of this collection area consists of the original 60 paintings of the Preston Morton Collection given in 1960, now expanded through gifts and purchases to include some 400 paintings and sculptures.
The collection of modern and contemporary art began with a strong foundation through the support of Donald Bear, the Museum's first Director, and pivotal gifts by Wright S.
The collection's area of particular strength and focus includes: works by California photographers from 1860 on, contemporary photographers from Western Pacific Rim countries (Korea, China, Japan, and Vietnam), artists exploring issues of science-based art, and selected examples by acknowledged m
Comprising more than 23,000 prints, drawings, photographs, and Asian scroll paintings, works on paper represent the largest area of concentration within the Museum's collection.

Maria Exilda
Update on Maria ExildaMaria is 53 years old and is a woman with a fighting spirit. She is married and has three children. She has her own house where she lives with her whole family. The house is located in the "Sector 0,5 Partidor" neighborhood, which is in the Las Lomas district in the province of Piura. The area she lives in is home to people who make their living planting fruit and in animal husbandry.
Maria and her family make their living in agriculture. They have one hectare of agricultural land where right now they have planted a mango plantation. Their land is located just a few meters from the back of the house. The produce is harvested and sold in the local market of the regions they live in. Sometimes they can sell to large customers in other areas. Her husband and children work in the business as well and as such they have an excellent family life.
To be able to sell the mangoes that they pick they need to buy "javas" [a receptacle used as a measure for sales of produce] in which they will be able to transport them and avoid damaging them. This is why they are requesting a loan from Edpyme Alternativa in the amount of 500 nuevos soles in order to improve the quality of their customer service and day by day make their business grow which will give her a better quality of life.
Her business has won her the care and respect of her neighbors by whom she is admired.
Maria y su familia se dedican la agricultura, teniendo 1,0 ha de terreno agrícola en donde actualmente tienen sembrado una plantación de mango, su terreno esta ubicado a escaso metros de la parte posterior de su casa. Su producto es cosechado y comercializado en el mercado local de la zona en la que viven y en algunas oportunidades son vendidos a clientes grandes de otros caseríos. Al negocio se dedica tanto su espos como sus hijos existiendo asi una excelente relación familiar.
Para poder ser comercializado el mango que cosechan necesitan comprar "javas" en las que se puedan transportar y evitar su deterioro, es por eso que solicitan un crédito a Edpyme Alternativa por un monto de 500 Nuevos Soles para poder mejorar la calidad de atención a sus clientes, y así día a día hacer crecer su negocio lo que le pueda dar una mejor calidad de vida
Su mismo negocio ha hecho que Maria se gane el cariño y respeto de sus vecinos de quienes recibe admiración.
Previous Loan DetailsMaria is fifty-two years old. She is married and has two children. The family owns their own home. They live in the village Sector Medio in the district of Tambogrande in the region of Piura. It is a highly agricultural region in which many residents manage small mango or lime plantations and...

Additional Information
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Indian-origin producer Anant Singh, who is based in South Africa, hopes his Oscar-nominated biopic "Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom" on the anti-apartheid icon will nspire Indian moviegoers.
Made for $35 million (Rs.219 crore), the film enjoyed record-breaking success in South Africa and has till now earned over 22 million rand ($2 million/Rs.12 crore).
"The film has performed well in the United Kingdom where it was released two weeks ago. As Indians have displayed a special affinity for Nelson Mandela, the freedom of our people and our country, I am hopeful that the Indian film-going audience will embrace the film and be inspired by it," Anant Singh told IANS in an email interaction from Durban.
The film, which has won this year's Oscar nomination for best original song - for "Ordinary love' by U2 - has done well in South Africa.
"In South Africa, the film has emerged as the highest grossing biopic and grossed over 22 million rand," Anant Singh said.
"It has outgrossed the entire run of the multiple Oscar-winning biopics 'The King's Speech', 'The Iron Lady', 'Lincoln', 'Schindler's List', 'A Beautiful Mind', 'Ray', and 'Gandhi'.
"Also, it has outpaced Oscar winners 'Walk The Line', 'Evita' and 'Elizabeth' and multiple Oscar nominees 'Ali' and has earned twice as much as 'Invictus'," added the producer, who had co-produced the Shyam Benegal-directed film "The Making Of The Mahatma" (1996).
Directed by Justin Chadwick, "Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom" showcases the icon's life as a lawyer, anti-apartheid revolutionary and politician-cum-activist who was elected the president of South Africa in 1994.
The movie, which stars Idris Elba in the title role and Naomie Harris as his wife Winnie, hit the Indian screens Friday.
The producer, who has made about 80 films, first visited India in the early 1990s to present some of his films at the International Film Festival of India.
"I have been able to develop strong relationships with people in the film industry as well as in business and government; among them are (Bollywood megastar) Amitabh Bachchan, (choreographer) Shiamak Davar, and a host of others," said Anant Singh, whose great grandfather moved to South Africa from India in 1877.
Amitabh had also shown support to the Indian premiere of "Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom" held in Mumbai recently.
It took almost two decades for the film to be made, but Anant Singh's chest is swollen with pride.
"Making an independent film, with a $35 million budget is very challenging. I promised Mr. Mandela that I will make the film to the best of my ability and that it may take a while. The film had to tell his story well," he said.
Anant Singh wanted to make the film when everything - script, team et al - was in place and when he was confident that he "could do justice to his story".
"All of these elements came together in 2011 and here we are today. I am extremely proud of how the film has turned out. I had developed a personal relationship with Mr. Mandela after his release from prison, and I was humbled when he chose me to be the custodian of the film rights of his autobiography. With it came great responsibility," he added.

Oh dear, post character limits..."cheating is cheating"To me there are different grades of cheating on the football pitch, as everywhere else in life."It hasn't happened that I recollect"I didn't phrase it the best way but I was trying to say it hasn't happened that I recollect Chelsea winning a game through cheating, as I have characterised this case. "I can't remember you starting a similar thread on the Utd board after Wellback took a dive last year to "win" a penalty against Liverpool?"I have certainly taken part in heated discussions on the United board about their players cheating. I think it was Dalglish's first match in charge you lost in the cup at United with Gerrard sent off and Berbatov diving for a penalty. I was fully on the Liverpool side in that argument. If you are really thinking I am always anti-Liverpool you are simply wrong."I can't remember you starting a similar thread on the Spurs board after Bale took a dive at Anfield last year?"And? I don't post on the Spurs board. I have posted elsewhere about Bale diving. I think it was on the Arsenal one."Singling out Liverpool & Suarez."The funny thing is what prompted me to start the thread was Sturridge. I found it noteworthy that he scored for you after only 7 minutes and intended to say something about it. After seeing the news with the goals I couldn't resist mentioning Suarez too. I was genuinely annoyed by it. But had Sturridge not scored, or I hadn't seen the news, history would have taken a different course..
