MPs from all corners of the UK have backed the campaign against excessive packaging, fired by public pressure and personal frustration at accumulating so much rubbish on shopping trips.
Exerting pressure on retailers and manufacturers to "design out" excessive packaging, 54 MPs have now signed a Commons Early Day Motion (EDM) supporting The Independent's Campaign Against Waste.
Representatives of seven parties have signed: Labour, Conservative, Liberal Democrats, Plaid Cymru, SDLP and DUP.
Among them are three former ministers: Elliott Morley, until last year Labour's environment minister; Labour's Glenda Jackson, the actress turned transport minister; and Peter Bottomley, one of Margaret Thatcher's first employment ministers.
Jo Swinson, the Liberal Democrat MP who tabled the motion (without our knowledge), said: "I am a consumer and I have been frustrated at packaging on a personal level and constituents have told me it's very frustrating that they are trying to do their bit for the environment, but yet everything they buy is covered in so much stuff. And we end up paying for it.
"We pay for it when we buy the product and we pay for it through our council tax because of landfill and we pay for the damage it does to the environment," she added.
Labour MP Lynn Jones, a mother of two, takes re-useable bags when she shops for food for her family because she is concerned about the environment. Explaining her reason for signing the motion, she said: "I think there's too much packaging. I'm thinking of joining the Women's Institute campaign [which saw members tearing off packaging in shops].
"I have occasionally taken packaging off if it's really outrageous and left it at the checkout. It's really annoying. Some of it is so difficult to unpack as well."
Packaging contributes to the £4.5m-a-year bill for landfill for the local authority in Torbay, whose MP is the Liberal Democrat Adrian Sanders.
Mr Sanders, who has signed the EDM, said: "There are constituents who write to me about environmental issues and I have had correspondence in favour of a plastic bag tax, which is an excellent idea."
Early Day Motion 814 notes "with concern" the excessive levels of packaging used by manufacturers and retailers, and says that 17 per cent of the average household food budget is spent inadvertently on packaging. It "commends the recent campaign against excessive packaging run by The Independent newspaper". Finally, it "urges supermarkets to reduce where possible packaging on goods sold, encourage the re-use of plastic bags, recycle packaging waste and encourage suppliers to reduce packaging further up the supply chain."

Logging on to Netflix these days, viewers are spoiled for choice when it comes to picking a film to chill out to. Yet, while there is an abundance of romance features, horror flicks, documentaries and action movies to dip into, why not consider taking it easy with some of the best Disney choices on offer?
From nostalgia-filled animation movies, to more recent House of Mouse offerings, here are the best #Disney movies streaming on Netflix right now:
13. 'Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey'
Release: 1993
A childhood classic that's streaming on #Netflix from April, Disney's Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey sees three household pets escape from their California ranch and embark on a cross-country odyssey in search of their beloved owners in San Francisco.
Fun Fact: Homeward Bound is one of the few talking animal movies in which the creature's mouth does not move in sync with the lines.
12. 'The BFG'
Release: 2016
The Big Friendly Giant is finally coming to Netflix, bringing Roald Dahl's endearing story about a little girl called Sophie and her adventures into Giant Country to the masses. The Disney live-action adaptation — directed by Steven Spielberg and featuring Oscar winner Mark Rylance as the bumbling, lovable giant — religiously sticks to the original material so The BFG will be a joy to watch for fans of one of the greatest storytellers of the 20th century.
Fun Fact: The film had been in development for almost 25 years!
11. 'The Jungle Book'
Release: 2016
Jon Favreau's Disney outing in 2016 was certainly an explosive one. Featuring a phenomenal cast of Bill Murray, Ben Kingsley, Idris Elba, Scarlett Johansson, Lupita Nyong'o and Christopher Walken, The Jungle Book swiftly entered the realms of some of the best live-action adaptations the House of Mouse has ever shuffled out.
Fun Fact: This was the first time that Kaa the Snake was portrayed as being female, played by Scarlett Johansson. Director Jon Favreau has since admitted that the change was deliberate because he felt there were already too many male characters in the storyline.
10. 'Zootopia'
Release: 2016
Similarly, we all went wild for Zootopia in 2016 when Disney provided us with a adventure-packed partnership between a rabbit police officer and a red fox con artist in their efforts to reveal a conspiracy.
And ultimately, the Academy similarly loved it so much that it was even nominated for Best Animated Feature at the 2017 #Oscars.
Fun Fact: Nick Wilde's designs are heavily borrowed from the main character in Robin Hood (1973), who also happens to be a fox.
9. 'Pirates Of The Caribbean: The Curse Of The Black Pearl'
Release: 2003
Go right back to the beginning of one of the most successful Hollywood franchises with Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. Released in 2003, it tells the story of young blacksmith Will Turner who is forced to team up with a mumbling drunkard in the shape of Johnny Depp's eccentric pirate Captain Jack Sparrow to save the love of his life, Elizabeth Swann.
Fun Fact: Amongst many things, Johnny Depp improvised Jack Sparrow's line, "Savvy?"
8. 'Fantasia'
Release: 1940
A timeless Disney classic, Fantasia continues to inspire and wow audiences of all ages to this day. Comprised of eight segments, all set to the music of a different composer, the movie remains one of the most stunning examples of the studio's early animations.
Fun Fact: Ever since 1940, when it was released, complaints from parents have flooded in over the 'Night on Bald Mountain' sequence, deemed far too terrifying for kids.
7. 'Tarzan'
Release: 1999
With The Legend of Tarzan recently out, why not relive all the action surrounding our favorite gorilla-raised man with Disney animated adaptation of the 1999 blockbuster on Netflix.
Fun Fact: Pro skateboarder Tony Hawk was the inspiration for how Tarzan's body moved when he slid down trees and logs.
6. 'The Emperor's New Groove'
Release: 2000
John Goodman, David Spade and Eartha Kitt star in the sassy Disney animation The Emperor's New Groove. Currently streaming on Netflix, it's a dramatic story about an arrogant Emperor who is transformed into a llama by devious diva Yzma. Yep, it's as hilarious as it sounds.
Fun Fact: Yzma wears a lot of purple, a color often associated with madness and royalty.
5. 'Lilo & Stitch'
Release: 2002
When a young Hawaiian girl adopts a bizarre looking pet, nobody is prepared for the critter to actually be a extra-terrestrial fugitive. Very different to many of the animated offerings being churned out by the House of Mouse in recent decades, it's a whirlwind adventure that explores serious family issues, as well as what true friendship really means.
Fun Fact: Many of the aliens in the movie are actually inspired by other Disney characters such as Piglet and Tigger.
4. 'Robin Hood'
Release: 1973
It's no wonder that 1973's Robin Hood continues to be a favorite amongst many. The colorful feature is based on one of the most prominent heroes in English folklore, with Disney valiantly presenting a fox as our Nottingham heroic archer. He's joined by a slew of human-like animal sidekicks who create a story that continues to warm the heart over 30 years on.
Fun Fact: This was the first film in Disney's animated line-up that had anthropomorphic animals without any human characters at all.
3. 'Brother Bear'
Release: 2003
Joaquin Phoenix stars in Disney's Brother Bear, a 2003 release that is now available on Netflix. The focus is on a little Inuit boy called Kenai, who embarks on a journey to unleash revenge on a bear for killing his brother. Tracking it down, he ruthlessly kills it, only to anger the Spirits and be transformed into one himself as punishment.
Fun Fact: Many of the characters in the movie are actually named after real places in Alaska, where the story is set. For example, Kenai is named after the Kenai Peninsula.
2. 'High School Musical'
Release: 2006
A TV movie that allowed a relatively unknown Zac Efron to break free into the dizzying heights of Hollywood stardom, High School Musical continues to be one of the most successful productions to come from the Disney Channel. So, before HSM 4 signals a start of something new, why not kick back on Netflix and relive what all the fuss was about back in 2006?
Fun Fact: Zac Efron's singing voice was actually that of Drew Seeley, who tested for the role of Troy. Seeley sang the entirety of "Get'cha Head in the Game" and the reprise of "What I've Been Looking For." Efron only sings the first four lines of "Start of Something New" and the first sentence of "Breaking Free." Why? All because Efron's voice was far too low for that of a tenor and he struggled to match with the other vocals.
1. 'Chicken Little'
Release: 2005
Chicken Little was Disney's first venture into non-Pixar CGI and is an adorable little story suitable for grade-schoolers and all ages upwards. Although the plotline is slightly ridiculous (essentially about a piece of sky falling on a young chicken!), and the animation will undoubtedly provide a barrel of laughs.
Fun Fact: Chicken Little was originally meant to be a girl.
Which Disney movie will you be watching on Netflix next?

November 28-30, 2016 in Cleveland, Ohio
Welcome to the 6th EnergyTech in Cleveland, an annual series that began in 2010 through productive dialog and interaction between technology and systems engineers / professionals within INCOSE, IEEE, and NASA GRC. This year, the conference addresses the changing dynamics and emerging technologies in Energy, and also deals with some of the most significant, consequential risks and issues in our critical infrastructure, posing major threats to civilized existence. We appreciate your interest and look forward to a constructive exchange of ideas by leading experts in the fields of energy and security.
Our civilization vitally depends on the continuous and assured availability of critical resources such as clean, safe, sustainable, and affordable electrical power, clean water, secure food, transportation, and related services. Major dynamic changes present new opportunities, but also threats that confront not only the energy sector but critical infrastructure, with the potential to greatly disrupt and undermine civilized existence.
To secure the vital energy needed for our civilized future, a comprehensive "Systems Approach" is essential. We need to effectively leverage and integrate advanced technologies into critical infrastructure, as well as address challenges and vulnerabilities in cyber-security, physical attacks, solar weather and EMP events . Solutions to such enormous challenges demand the very best in human ingenuity coupled with efficient, sophisticated computing tools and rigorous methods to managing system risk and life-cycle decision support.
Now in its 6th year, EnergyTech 2016 seeks the convergence of the best minds in policy, systems engineering and applied technology to address some of the critical issues of our time. In addition to its strong systems and technology focus, the recurring theme, "Securing Our Energy Future" will address broad policy issues and big picture topics related to Energy and Critical Infrastructure. As shown in the "Program" tab, experts from Industry, Academia, and Government present a wide range of perspectives on these challenges.
Paper authors, panelists and presenters are encouraged to address ways in which advanced technology solutions, combined with Systems Engineering principles, processes and perspectives are performed today and how the critical infrastructure sectors such as energy will benefit from these practices. Topics of interest include technology insertion, process improvements, systems engineering and organizational governance of the systems we make, manage, operate and maintain over their life cycle.
EnergyTech 2016 is sponsored by INCOSE, IEEE, and NASA Glenn Research Center presented in collaboration with Infragard, area universities and government, and The Cleveland Engineering Society. For more information on partnering with EnergyTech2016, please check our sponsor page.

Fossil fuel depletion, increase in oil prices and adverse environmental effects of petroleum products have lead to sharp interest in biofuel production all over the world. The production of bioethanol from lignocellulosic biomass is a sustainable and attractive energy source for transportation fuel to replace gasoline and substitute fossil fuels. Office papers due to high cellulose and carbohydrate content are potential raw materials for production of bioethanol. Termites feed on diet rich in hemicellulose, cellulose and lignin and harbour a natural mechanism which makes them able to degrade cellulose. The mechanism of cellulose degradation is aided by the various cellulolytic bacteria that are found in the gut of termites. A technology that can give an everlasting solution to the energy requirements and reduce dependence on oil producing countries is the utilization of cellulose for the production of alternate and renewable fuels for transportation. This study is not only cost effective but also environmentally beneficial due to bioremediation of urban waste.

Since neutral hydrogen gas supplies the protons that will be accelerated, the hydrogen must undergo a process that will remove the electron and leave the positively charged proton behind. This is accomplished fairly easily by bombarding the hydrogen gas with low energy electrons. Located inside, close to the center of the top of the vacuum chamber the ion source is mounted on the face of the dummy DEE, see Plate 2. A W-Th-Ir filament is suspended between two electrical feed-throughs with spring loaded clamps at the tip. When approximately 7 amps flow through the filament it is heated to glow white hot. Since the filament is completely isolated from the chamber ground it can be negatively biased with respect to chamber ground causing thermionic emission to occur. A portion of the emitted electrons will pass vertically downward to the bottom of the chamber ionizing the hydrogen atoms present in their path. The electric fields of the ion source and accelerating RF sweep away the freed hydrogen electrons, leaving the massive protons behind. Further more, because of the very strong magnetic field parallel to the desired electron path, strong focusing occurs. Any electron that attempts to stray off of a vertical ascent or decent is immediately steered back towards the central axis of motion. Due to this corrective focusing, the electrons tend to oscillate back and forth in both X and Y while traveling downward in Z. Instead of following a linear path, the traversal then becomes a helical path with a very tight radius. The exposed filament is roughly 1 inch long, thereby producing a very thin sheet of electrons with a similar width of 1 inch. It was found that an optimum bias voltage of the filament was –320 Volts D.C.
Plate 2. Ion source filament arrangement
The thermionic emission rate is proportional to the heating of the filament. The heating of the filament is proportional to the square of the
Fig.9 Emission of test filament, bias -300VDC
applied current. Fig.9 shows the exponential emission of electrons in a test of the W-Th-Ir material. Hence slight changes in the filament current can produce great changes in thermionic emission. Ultimately changing the number of thermionic electrons available to ionize the hydrogen. In this way the cyclotron proton beam current can be controlled. As of yet the limiting factor in the maximum achievable beam current at the periphery is due to filament heating limitations.
Hydrogen gas is emitted to the chamber via a calibrated leak. The leak is backed by a high pressure regulator that takes the hydrogen from a lecture bottle at a few thousand PSI and brings it down to approximately 10 PSI. The pressure setting is empirically controlled by monitoring the vacuum ion gauge with the magnetic field off. Because the vacuum system is continually pumping on the chamber a minute flow of hydrogen occurs with the chamber pressure leveled off at some equilibrium.
For pressures greater than 5E-5 Torr, and filament emission currents greater than 1 mA, a dramatic cathode ray appears. Plate 3 was taken through the view-port that looks down the accelerating gap. Electrons travel down from the filament along the magnetic field lines to the bottom of the chamber.
Plate 3. Ion Source Electron Beam.
It was found that the optimum hydrogen pressure was 5.5E-5 Torr. Pressures higher would decrease the collected beam due to the protons decreased mean free path, while pressures lower than optimum decreased the available hydrogen of which to create ions from.

Anyone for Cricket…….
We have been given the opportunity to host a fundraising event at the Kia Oval Cricket Ground in London, one of the most prestigious grounds in the country, on August 8th. However, this comes at a cost of £30k. So we have decided to go out to companies and see if we can get 8 companies to enter a 7 a-side team at a cost of £5k which would include the once in a lifetime opportunity to play at the Oval, with full match officials, use of the official dressing rooms, access all areas in the pavilion and all followed by top class dining.
This would be a once in a lifetime chance and has to be a must for any cricketers. Do you think this is something that your company would be interested in participating in? If so, or if you have any further questions, please contact firstname.lastname@example.com immediately.

Japan says four Chinese ships in disputed waters
Related topics
Four Chinese government ships were sailing in the territorial waters of disputed Tokyo-controlled islands on Tuesday, the coastguard said, the day after Japan's premier promised to beef up security.
The maritime surveillance ships entered the 12-nautical-mile zone of territorial waters around one of the East China Sea islands at about 11am, the coastguard said.
Separately, two fisheries patrol ships were spotted in the so-called contiguous waters, which extend a further 12 nautical miles, of another island in the chain, coastguards said.
The latest move came after Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda said on Monday that Tokyo would "strengthen security" around its coast.
Chinese vessels have moved in and out of what Japan says is its sovereign territory over the last nearly two months since Tokyo nationalised some of the islands, known as the Senkakus in Japan and Diaoyus in China.
As well as the potential mineral reserves to which ownership of the islands grants access, both countries have considerable amounts of national pride at stake in the decades-old spat.
The dispute has hit the huge trade relationship between the two largest economies in the region. Senior representatives from both governments are reportedly readying for a third round of talks on the issue.

I slashed them. Finally. Sucess.
Yes, that was a slash.
It was quite mild.
If you blinked, you missed it.
You also probably missed it if you don't know what this word means: erection.
I am female and not afraid to say that word.
I used to be paranoid about how people wouldn't like this. I refuse to apologize. They're just too cute together to need an apology. In my opinion. I would love to hear yours!
Disclaimer: Animal House belongs to National Lampoon.
"This is so annoying," Boon covered his face with his hands.
"Sometimes that's the way girls are," Otter sat beside him on Boon's bed. His room was noticeably less exciting and erotic than Otter's, but that kind of fit the mood right about now.
"What would you know?" Boon flopped his hands down on his thighs. Otter watched him, and noticed that in the position he was in, far back on the bed all slouched over, his feet did not touch the ground. "You never stay in a relaaaationship."
"I know that girls can cause problems."
Boon sighed. "Again, I ask, how would you know? You never get to know any girls."
"Doesn't mean I don't get problems with girls. And besides, I can observe you." He leaned back, crossed his legs, and rested on his elbows.
Boon didn't answer.
Unfortunately, Otter took this to mean he should move forward. "So maybe it's better you finally broke things off with Katy."
No answer.
Okay then we'll just keep going. "I think she was only making you miserable."
"She was not only making me miserable!!" He faced Otter and pointed his finger at him in warning.
Otter raised an eyebrow. Okaaaayyyyy then, gooood, let it sit for a minute. "When did she make you happy?"
This didn't upset Boon. He transferred his feet to the bed, uncaring of his shoes being part of the deal. "I don't even know anymore. I just didn't want to break up with her. It felt like I had to be in this relationship for some reason." He paused, then lay back on his bed and crossed his legs.
Otter sat back up for him. "Do you think you'll never get someone else?"
"No, I just think… I think she's the only one who really gives a crap about me anymore."
"That's not true."
"Very mature."
"What about the guys? It's a whole house full of guys here. They seem to like you, in case you didn't get the message the past four years."
Boon stretched out his legs. He looked a little pissed. "No. I'm kinda fun, especially when I'm drunk. That's-"
"Why they like you."
"Liking doesn't always mean truly giving a shit."
Otter stretched out next to him. He covered a better amount of the bed easily. "That's still not true." He sometimes teased Boon about their height difference, either to make less comfortable or more comfortable. And now there was a long pause. "My feet are like, on TOP of your footboard. Be glad you don't have this problem."
"Not now, Otter."
"Fine," Move on as fast as possible, made an oops. "Hey. You need to cheer up. Let's go get drunk."
"I don't knowww," Boon flipped his over and put his face on his pillow.
"What? You always wanna get drunk! Come on." Otter sat up and tugged on his arm. "You know you wanna."
"Yeah, I do," His voice was muffled.
Otter threw his legs over the side of the bed and continued tugging. "At least come down for a beer or two or three or four." iNo laugh, oh well, keep going. /i "You'll forget all about her soon enough."
Boon did sit up and threw his own legs over the side, sitting next to Otter again. "I don't want to."
SHIT that wasn't how it was supposed to dammit why'd you have to say why does he have to "Come on. I know what'll make you happy." Otter stood up. "I'm trying my best here. You don't want me to actually do something like hug you, right?"
"You better not."
"Then come on down, contestant number Boon, and retrieve your prize!"
"Damn straight."
Otter sighed. An idea crossed his mind, but he would feel like an elementary schoolgirl for going forth. Desperate times call for desperate measures. Look at him. Doesn't even want to get drunk, he always wants to get drunk, desperate over here. "I didn't want to do this."
Otter tackled him to the floor.
"Not until you smile. And agree to come down for some good, clean drinking." Otter straddled him.
"Are you just going to sit there, because this is freaking me out- out- AGH!" Boon wriggled around as Otter tickled him.
"It's working! You're smiling!" I'm good.
"What the- fuck- you- get- fuck- stop!" To Otter's credit, Boon was laughing.
"Say uncle! Beer is calling!"
"Fine! Fine! Get- agh! Whatever! Get- OFF!" Boon bucked his hips.
The laughing stopped.
They stared at each other in shock.
Boon murmured, "Did… did you just…"
"No, you're…"
Another moment of shocked staring.
Otter got up and quickly sat down on the floor again. Boon snapped upright and crossed his legs.
After a long pause, Otter said, "I'm really sorry. I didn't think you - or I - would. Uh. I'm not-"
"Neither am I."
"So that was just."
"Not our fault."
Another awkward pause and a couple shifting noises. Otter got up. "Well! I'm going to get drunk. I do hope you'll join me."
Boon was just staring straight ahead.
Otter bit his lip. I fucked this one up. "Hello?" He snapped his fingers. "Drunkenness? Drinking? Hmmm?"
Boon sighed and uncrossed his legs. "You know what? Sure. Why the fuck not."
Otter offered his hand and helped pull Boon to his feet. "Damn, I have to really reach down to do that. I'll throw out my back one of these days."
"Ha ha. Once you go low altitude, you never go back."
Otter laughed.
Boon started for the door, but after one step, Otter grabbed his arms, and hugged him.
"Feel better. Seriously."
"Why. Do you insist so much." His voice was shaky.
"Because I truly give a shit."
A couple more seconds. Then Boon returned the hug.
A few more seconds.
A few more.
They broke apart. "Drunkenness?"
"Lead the way and hurry up already."

Everyone has their own preferences when it comes to skiing and snowboarding holidays. One skier might prefer a ski area full of challenging black runs, while another is looking for easy skiing and all night apres-ski. An advanced skier has very different demands on a ski holiday than someone who is on their first ski holidays. For families, of course, it is essential to have a good ski school for children and professional childcare but also to have a choice of other activities to keep the little ones busy. Maybe the grandparents also go on the family ski holidays and they would like to go hiking or cross country skiing. Maybe you fancy trying summer skiing for a change and you're not sure where to go...
Below are the main criteria to consider when choosing a ski holiday destination. Click on the topics and you'll find a list of the best ski resorts to suit your needs. Yet again, Snowplaza is here to help you find your perfect ski holidays.
Apres-ski, for many people on their ski holidays is more important than the actual skiing or snowboarding. The number of pistes, facilities and good snow are just an afterthought – the number of apres-ski bars is, however, the No. 1 priority! A ski holiday without good apres-ski is like a ski holiday without good snow for those avid party goers. Austria is already well-known for its apres-ski but in recent years France, in particular, has been trying to catch up… Here are some of the best apres-ski resorts in the Alps. Best apres-ski resorts
A family-friendly ski resort is one which is adapted to the needs of the whole family. For younger children this means, of course, that there are sufficient facilities so that they feel at home. Family-friendly accommodation with adapted equipment and a ski resort where children have plenty of space and activities to keep them busy, are not always easy to find. We've put together a list of family ski resorts by country – ski resorts where you can be sure to spend unforgettable ski holidays with the whole family. Family ski resorts
When learning to ski or snowboard, you're certainly not interested in black runs, mogul fields and awesome off-piste tracks! What's most important to you is the number of gentle blue slopes and easy drag lifts! To really enjoy your first ski holiday, you need to make a lot of important decisions and choices – the most important being – which ski resort is the best for beginners! Below is a selection of the best ski resorts for beginner skiers. Best ski resorts for beginners
Intermediate skiers have one thing in mind – becoming an advanced skier! Blue runs are no longer challenging enough and red runs are becoming really fun! An intermediate skier needs a varied ski area with mixed red runs and tricky blues. The odd easy black run is good for the ego – but gently does it – let's not take too many risks! Off-piste terrain next to marked runs is perfect for learning off-piste skills while staying safe. Below you can see our selection of the best ski resorts for intermediate skiers. Best ski resorts for intermediate skiers
Snowboarders often get blamed for bare patches on the pistes or taking up too much space in cable cars. Snowboarders think differently! They believe that skiers don't know what they're missing! The wonderful feeling of having both feet firmly on a snowboard carving down the slopes is indescribable. Snowboarding is now becoming popular with all ages – not just the younger crowd. Many adults are switching from skiing to snowboarding to try new sensations up on the slopes. Below is a list of the best ski resorts for snowboarding. Best ski resorts for snowboarding
In the Alps there are plenty of ski resorts where you can go cross country skiing. Hundreds of kilometers of trails have been marked out in the beautiful mountain landscapes giving access to areas outside the downhill ski areas. No noise from the chair lifts or cable cars, no crowds or queuing – only the sound of nature and your own breathing as you push yourself and test your limits. Here you will find a selection of the best cross-country skiing resorts in the Alps. Best cross-country ski resorts
Summer skiing could be the answer for you if you're looking for an alternative to those sometimes disappointing beach holidays. Often the idea of pristine sandy beaches and crystal clear water doesn't match the reality. Packed, dirty beaches and murky sea water is what we sadly find in many European seaside resorts. Fresh air, no pollution or crowds AND the possibility of skiing is what summer skiing is all about! What are you waiting for? Here's our Top 5 summer skiing resorts in the Alps. Best summer skiing spots

It was a tumultuous week for Apple. After unveiling the latest iPhone model, dubbed the 4S, on Tuesday to a relatively lukewarm reception, its co-founder Steve Jobs died from complications of pancreatic cancer on Wednesday night, setting off an outpouring of grief and tributes from just about everyone. Jobs (pictured) was 56 years old.
After shrouding the entire operation in secrecy for months, hip hop icon Kanye West (pictured) unveiled his debut fashion line, Dw By Kanye West (named after his late mother), at Paris Fashion Week last weekend. Most critics said they found his line, which featured bright colours and tight leather with a profusion of zippers, to be 'confusing' and 'busy'.
Mainland rock fans celebrated the National Day holiday last week at the Strawberry Changjiang Music Festival, a four-day rock extravaganza featuring indie rock bands from around the globe. Standout acts included Blood Group (from Iceland), The Ocean (Denmark), The Koxx (South Korea), The Whip (UK), Tanya Chua (Singapore), and even Cheer Chen (pictured) and Sodagreen from Taiwan.
A Michael Jackson-themed Cirque du Soleil show, titled Michael Jackson the Immortal, premiered last Sunday at the Bell Centre. The show, set to run for two years around the world, covers Jackson's entire musical legacy, including his days with the Jackson 5. The show will stay in Canada throughout this month before hitting the US, including a long stint in Las Vegas in December.
Some of Pablo Picasso's most famous works, such as The Barefoot Girl, Woman in Red Armchair and Les Demoiselles d'Avignon (pictured), will be exhibited in the Shanghai Expo site's China pavilion next week. In all, 62 oil paintings, sculptures and block prints created by the legendary Spanish artist will be on display.
Fifty paintings by artists from the Dutch Golden Age are now being shown at the Kyoto Municipal Museum of Art as part of the 'Communication: Visualising the Human Connection in the Age of Vermeer' exhibition. Much of the work are from Johannes Vermeer (pictured) and Pieter de Hooch, two of the leading painters from that era. The exhibition ends next Sunday.
