There is a basic trajectory for a science PhD student, and it goes something like this. Enthusiasm and delight mingled with a frisson of fear, a gradual onset of hard reality and stress, perhaps a dash of boredom and possibly even some despair and disillusionment. This is followed by a long period of determination and hard work, which ends in joy and relief. This is the crucible in which Continue reading
Creation: A Celebration
In 2009, Sue Symons finished 7,000 hours of work on a series of illuminated and embroidered texts which celebrate the theme of creation. I was fortunate enough to catch sight of the original work at the Christian Resources Exhibition in May this year, and in the end I had to buy the book. I was supposed to be working on the Faraday Institute stand at the time, but the level of detail in the pictures made me want to pore over them. Continue reading
Cara Wall Scheffler: What anthropology can tell us about the origins of religious behaviour
Before I report back on Mark Harris's second Faraday course lecture, which was on the Bible and human origins*, I want to think about the science behind this subject. At the same course, the biological anthropologist Cara Wall-Scheffler spoke on Anthropology and the Origins of Religion. I'll reflect on Continue reading
Worshipping God with Science: Beauty from the Earth
I'm always keeping my eye out for ways to bring science into a church context, and I recently found a new one in Switzerland. Two buildings in the centre of Zurich, the Grossmünster (great minster) and Fraumünster (women's minster) are decorated with the most incredible stained glass, designed by the artists Marc Chagall, Augusto Giacometti and Sigmar Polke. I had already seen examples of scientific themes in stained glass, such as the windows by David Hunt in St Crispin's, Braunstone, but some of Polke's windows took this idea to a new level. Continue reading
Guest Post – Stranded: Life and death in the ocean
Do you go to an art exhibition to be soothed and delighted, or challenged and disturbed? Science uses highly creative approaches to investigate the natural world, but art can perhaps offer a deeper, more personal engagement. Continue reading
Learning From the Past: Intelligence, creativity and risk in evolutionary processes
What is intelligence? The ability to process information or respond to signals? The use of language, music or mathematics? One measure of whether something is intelligent is if it can use past experience to direct future behaviour in a helpful direction. This is something I often attempt, with varying levels of success! In recent years, a number of researchers have been asking whether evolutionary processes can also do this. Continue reading
Climate Change, Sustainable Living, and the Generosity of God
Talks on climate change and sustainability don't often start with a discussion of generosity, but that is what we see on Earth. The natural resources available at the beginning of human history were not unlimited, but they were vast.
God's awesome creativity resulted in a world in which living things essentially make themselves, using the materials available to them. For example, plants, algae, and some bacteria use air, water, sunlight and minerals to make their food. The rest of us eat these 'primary producers', or the organisms that ate them, so the whole of the living world essentially thrives on a few basic raw materials.
In the economy of ecosystems, nothing is wasted. Minerals and other nutrients are recycled from decaying organic matter. Water is recycled and purified by the processes of evaporation and rainfall. Everything is used for something, and through the dynamic processes of life, the overall trend on Earth has been towards increasing diversity and complexity.
In the story of the prodigal son, a generous father gives half of his property to his son, allowing him to learn by his mistakes. This parable is played out, in part, in our relationship with the environment. Genesis 1 describes how we are called to be responsible for the whole of creation, but we have used the world's resources in ways which – while inventive – were not always wise. Many of our enterprises have been disastrously short sighted, wasteful and destructive. The end of the story is that God forgives our mistakes and loves us no less because of them, but there are still practical consequences to be dealt with.
The United Nations Conference on Climate Change this week is an attempt to address the damage that is still being done, and will hopefully result in effective and fair solutions. Measures need to be taken to protect vulnerable people and ecosystems, and to ration or recover resources that are now scarce. Extravagant standards of living must be brought down to a sustainable level. Poorer countries deserve the opportunity to develop in sustainable ways.
So is this the end of God's generosity? I don't think so. Sustainable living is not just about cutting down, but is about the improvement in everyone's quality of life that will come from using natural resources well. We really can aim for a full, just and responsible enjoyment of the amazing gifts that our generous God has provided for us.

Shailesh Gandhi, the former central information commissioner, pointed out to an eager audience the tools at our disposal to compel an unresponsive government to act
That our government does not function is a common refrain; it is a topic of discussion at every dinner table. But 'why the government does not work' was the question raised by Shailesh Gandhi, a former central information commissioner, in a session titled "Make your Government work for you", organised by Moneylife Foundation on the 23rd of May in Mumbai.
Addressing an audience of around 70, Mr Gandhi broke the ice with "India belongs to each individual citizen. Thus, we ourselves are responsible to make our government work for us." To do this, Mr Gandhi spoke about an important tool designed for the common man, namely, The Maharashtra Government Servants Regulation of Transfers and Prevention of Delay in Discharge of Official Duties Act, 2005. This tongue twister of a statute is commonly known as the 'Transfers and Delays Act of 2005'.
The above-mentioned Act governs the transfers of government officials in Maharashtra. The Act specifies that the tenure of government servants will be three years and transfers will normally be made only in April and May of each year. It provides for reasons to be recorded if transfers happen otherwise. Mr Gandhi pointed out that under the Act, in case of any discrepancy, anyone can file an application against the action with the information commission.
Often, we find ourselves disappointed, not only by inaction but also the apathy of government agencies when our complaints fall on deaf ears. This Act, however, shows us a way. It mandates that no action can be kept pending for more than three months, and if left unattended beyond that, a simple application with the complaint can be sent to the secretary of the concerned department; or when the relevant authority is a municipality, the municipal commissioner.
In the discussion, Mr Gandhi explained how the government is simply not structured to act and that the present government's resources are insufficient to govern a gigantic country like India. He emphasised that simple tools like the 'Transfer and Delays Act', if utilised, have a potential to change the system. An important first step is to exert pressure. He concluded by saying, "You can make this Act work. If you want your government to work, you will have to act."
Economics and Indology scholar Dr Bibek Debroy regaled Moneylife Foundation audience with his depth of knowledge and amazing stories about ludicrous Indian laws
An enlightening lecture by Dr Bibek Debroy, eminent economist, columnist and academician, was organised by Moneylife Foundation on 27th May in Mumbai. Dr Debroy took the audience on a journey from the beginning of the movement for law reform in 2001-02, its development and current status. He also enunciated the issues concerning the barriers that old and archaic laws place in India's path to growth.
In his characteristic incisive style, Dr Debroy livened the session with real-life experiences and anecdotes. These covered the various projects he has headed, the longest disputes in the history of Indian courts, the plight of a dead man—Lal Bihari—and the funniest laws in the country.
"The dimension of legal reform in India is like a huge black hole", Dr Debroy said. He hypothesised that "if we can fix the various dimensions in our legal system, our GDP will grow by 1.5%." He not only discussed the problems within our legal system, but also the various stages and elements of legal reform.
The oldest laws in India can be traced back to the nineteenth century. Around 200 pieces of legislation pre-date our Independence. It was only in 2000-2001, that an effort was made to get rid of some of these redundant laws. Like India, several other countries continue to have some bizarre laws. However, unlike India, these laws are not used to harass citizens. "With a new Narendra Modi government, there is an expectation of overhaul of the legal system. The new prime minister has been talking about statutory reforms that he had carried out in Gujarat. There is some development on civil laws, but there is equal need of reforms in criminal laws, including police reforms," he said.
In an informative question hour, Dr Debroy expressed optimism that the new government will implement many of the law reforms that are being talked about. Shedding light on the intricacies in law reforms, such as the identification of the redundant laws, the process of repeal, the different kinds of statutes, the need for simplification, etc, Dr Debroy lucidly and patiently answered each question that was posed to him.
Dr Debroy spoke about the pivotal role of the law ministry as a catalyst of legal reforms in India. He concluded the session by saying, "Unless we correct the system, all the talk of GDP growth, is poppycock."

I've recently read this book and its fabulous. It's about four sisters who live with their father and their dog, Hound. They go on holiday and have adventures while meeting new people. The sisters are all different.
My favourite character is Jane because she loves reading and is a good writer but they are all great! Anyone would enjoy The Penderwicks because there are lots of fun bits in it and the sisters are good friends... usually!

|Release Date
|16 April 2004
|US Box Office
|Revenge is a dish best served cold.
The 5th film by Quentin Tarantino
Kill Bill: Volume 2 is a 2004 American martial arts film written and directed by Quentin Tarantino. It is the second of two volumes that were released several months apart. It was originally scheduled for a single theatrical release, but was divided into two films with its running time being over four hours. Kill Bill: Volume 1 was released in late 2003, and Kill Bill: Volume 2 was released in early 2004. It stars Uma Thurman as the Bride, who continues her rampage of revenge against an assassination squad led by Bill (David Carradine).
Bill: He'll accept you as his student. The Bride: Caught him in a good mood, aye? Bill: More like a sadistic one. Just seeing those steps again makes me ache. You're gonna have plenty of fun carrying buckets of water up and down that fucker. The Bride: Why did he accept me? Bill: Because he's a very very very old man. And like all rotten bastards, when they get old, they become lonely. Not that that has any effect on their disposition. But they do learn the value of company. The Bride: When will I see you again? Bill: That's the title of my favorite soul song of the Seventies. The Bride: What? Bill: Nothing. When he tells me you're done. The Bride: When do you think that might be? Bill: That my dearest, all depends on you. Now remember, no backtalk, no sarcasm. Least not for the first year. You're going to have to let him warm up for you. He hates Caucasians, despises Americans, and has nothing but contempt for women, so in your case, that may take a little while. Adios.

Showtime Set to 'Pop'
January 10, 2005,
New York — An expansion of the movement embracing the '50s, '60s and '70s design heritage will propel contemporary into new interpretations in decorative fabrics.
Patterns will be simpler, more graphic, sleeker. The apparel influence will see more boucles, textures and dimensional effects.
The surge of faux suede as a solid color fabric has inspired a number of companies to create print collections especially for this base cloth.
At the same time, decorative fabric designers see more decoration, more opulence and luxury coming to the fore.
As for the color palette, it continues to be bright and brash with some forecasting a toning down in coming seasons. New combinations of colors and lots of white as a fashion accent will be featured.
"Patterns are getting very simple, with a wonderful flow. And there's more color than pattern," explained Marion Murray, vice president, design for the Robert Allen Group. The key, she added, is "the lines are simplistic, more hand-drawn looks."
Overall, she noted, "There is a real marriage with apparel trends —happier but not Lilly Pulitzer, less edgy."
"Our business is so tied to ready-to-wear," Greg Lawrence, design director of prints at Duralee, agreed. He sees the trend as a today interpretation of the '80's in ready to wear — "rich lady looks, Republican chic looks."
The result, he added, "is that design is getting more decorated with sheers, luxurious treatments, opulence." One interpretation of traditional is being presented in a series of two tones in design themes like paisleys and toiles — "You don't just use them on a pillow or chair but in yards and yards at the window and on beds."
At the same time, Lawrence sees a trend to interpretations of the late '60's and early '70's in contemporary prints.
For Wesley Mancini, president of Wesley Mancini Ltd., "There is a continuing growth of contemporary, what I call the new pop — '60's and '70's pop but streamlined for today, and very much a color story."
Mancini sees more vivid colors offset with white. And the colors themselves are changing with Dijon, a warm gold, becoming the new yellow; latte, a deeper and redder brown; ocean, a dark blue with a green cast; mist, a light grayed blue; salmon, a light medium pink; and azalea, a medium blue red.
At Waverly, "We're thought of as a traditional house but our Metropolitan Collection is different," explained Pam Maffai-Toolan, vice president, design. "It's retro '50's inspired, very geometric and a jacquard checkerboard base cloth."
Overall, the line has a "cleaner more modern approach to design," Maffei-Toolan related. "We have a number of targeted looks — whimsical, rustic, lodge."
As for color, Maffei-Toolan emphasized, "You can't be shy about it. I'm excited by the brighter tangerines, fuchsia and pinks. And spa colors are really hot now — mist blue, chocolate and mocha."
"Retro modern is our twist on contemporary," said Michael Day, vice president, Textile Fabric Associates (TFA). "We're seeing sleek looks, textures, and boucles and the most interesting is a linen ground contemporary velvet we're introducing."
Silks continue to be a growing piece of business at TFA with ikats, embroideries and overlays joining an already broad assortment of decorated fabrics. "There's a return to elegance with formal looks, damasks, embroidered crewels." And the firm's signature raffia collection will feature raffia with grosgrain for this season.
The entire young, retro movement "is influencing traditional design," said Louise Cullen Robinson, creative director, Richloom's Platinum Collection. "Design is simpler, more graphic, colorful." Pink and apple green continue to be important but with a new combination of blue/turquoise/apple with white coming on.
In traditional, Cullen Robinson sees "exotic, saturated color, embellished designs, crewels and artisany looks emerging." New colors will be more coral pinks and marigolds, she said.
At Craftex, "We see retro '50's and '60's as being very fresh," said Melanie Newman, senior designer, decorative jobbers. "It's contemporary with sophistication, simple forms and positive/negative looks."
Other important directions, she said, include "stylized ethnic interpretations of florals, menswear stripes in color like pink with emerald, and a definite European approach to color."
As Duralee's Lawrence looks ahead, he sees a bluer palette overall, and specifically orange reds changing to ruby reds, yellow greens to emerald and lots of mauve.
Down the road, Robert Allen's Murray said, "We see merlot replacing pinks, blues turning more greens, emerald, and a pinkiere coral — all fabulous saturated shades but edgy and deep as well."
The white with color trend is a strong force at Valdese, said Laura Levinson, senior vice president. "It's a new backdrop for the cleaner, clearer color palette and we're using in paired with red, bright blue, raspberry, canary or an almost kelly green," she explained. "This white is a new pure almost chalk shade to offer the right contrast with the color."
In design, Valdese is taking an eclectic approach, creating a younger, hipper look mixing retro geometrics with traditional frame motifs, she related.

Hello? Are you listening? HELLO SELF? See this word, written right here, yes, what does it say? Sense. Yes. And what does that mean? Exactly. So where did yours go?
Wow. I really have no idea.
If I'd have had sense I would have listened and acted.
If I'd have had sense I would have aced that exam.
If I'd have had sense I would have stopped it.
What is sense? Common sense? Ha! That avoids everyone. Like now, I'm about to leave school and did I even realise ONCE that I may never see half these people around me again? Oh yes, several times. But did I have the sense to act on it? No I did not. What have I got now? Photos and a year book, scrawled messages in notebooks. Is that it?! Is that all I have to show for my five years at school?
Well I'll be damned.
Sense, I guess I had some once.

Parents whose five neglected children were found malnourished, unwashed and infested with lice and fleas have taken an overdose before a court hearing.
The couple, who cannot be named for legal reasons, were due to be sentenced at Gloucester Crown Court on Friday when they were admitted to hospital.
Steve Young, a barrister for the defence, said they were "not fit to be sentenced", the Gloucester Citizen reported.
"They are not so seriously ill that there are still concerns for their lives," he added.
Sentencing has been delayed until Monday and the couple will receive care from a psychiatric team over the weekend.
Judge Jamie Tabor told the court it could have been a suicide attempt, the BBC reported.
He said: "I have no idea whether this is attention seeking, sympathy seeking or just people that are desperate.
"But I have got work on the basis this is a genuine attempt to take their lives and I am concerned about the weekend."
The court previously heard that the couple left five children – three fathered by the husband - in squalor from 2007 to 2012.
They pleaded guilty to neglect at an earlier hearing and charges relating to four more children will lie on file.
The siblings, aged up to 14, were shunned by other children at school because they smelled so badly and one teacher was unable to bear being near one of the girls, the Gloucester Citizen reported.
Teachers, doctors and social workers were aware of the problems but the mother failed to keep appointments and follow instructions.
The children were taken away from their parents in November 2012 after a young girl was admitted to hospital with severe nappy rash and the scale of the neglect was revealed.
Police visiting the home found their bedrooms stinking of urine and animal faeces, with dirty clothing on the floors and stale food in the kitchen.
Two children old enough to be toilet-trained were still in nappies and the mother tried to treat head lice with mayonnaise, the court heard.
Ahead of their sentencing, the father told the BBC: "We did let our children down. We never stopped loving our children, but we did let them down.
"Not in a neglectful way but in a way of development and growing up."Reuse content

A man who fatally shot a wandering Alzheimer's patient in the early morning hours will not face criminal charges, a north Georgia prosecutor said Friday.
Joe Hendrix, 35, fatally shot 72-year-old Ronald Westbrook on 27 November. Westbrook had slipped from his home and wandered in the cold and dark for hours, until randomly approaching the home of Hendrix's fiancée on a rural cul-de-sac, repeatedly knocking on the door and ringing the bell.
Hendrix's fiancée called 911, while Hendrix grabbed his .40-caliber handgun, went outside and confronted Westbrook. Hendrix told police he fired four shots after Westbrook ignored commands to stop, identify himself and raise his hands.
In a written statement, district attorney Herbert "Buzz" Franklin's office characterised the incident as a "tragic shooting death". Franklin did not immediately return a message seeking comment.
A series of chance events, even a missed opportunity, preceded the shooting.
On 19 November, Hendrix's fiancée called 911 just before midnight to report that a man carrying a piece of paper and a flashlight rang her doorbell and wanted to see a person whose name she did not recognise, according to Hendrix's attorney and police reports obtained by the Associated Press under the state's open records laws. The woman had only recently moved into the rented home and was suspicious, authorities said.
Worried, the fiancée called Hendrix, who told her to call 911. By the time Hendrix and police officers arrived, the suspicious man was gone. Afterward, Hendrix, a former soldier, took a Glock handgun from his apartment in nearby Chattanooga, Tennessee, and brought the weapon to his fiancée's home.
About a week later, Westbrook slipped out unnoticed from the home he shared with his wife of 51 years. Westbrook suffered from Alzheimer's, a progressive disease that causes memory loss, impairs judgment and can leave victims disoriented. His widow, Deanne, previously said her husband had become confused about where he lived and struggled to identify those closest to him.
She said she installed alarms on her doors to prevent her husband from wandering, but she didn't hear them when he left with the couple's two dogs, possibly as early as 1am.
A deputy sheriff noticed Westbrook walking along a road around 2.30am and stopped to question him, authorities said previously. Westbrook told the officer he was getting his mail – he was near mailboxes – and planned to return home. Nothing about the conversation alarmed the officer.
Just before 4am, Hendrix and his fiancée woke up to barking dogs and realised someone was ringing their doorbell, knocking on their door and trying to get in, police said. Hendrix's fiancée called 911 while Hendrix went outside with his gun.

Subject 11: Into the UnknownMature
I looked down at Haruto, as he sobbed into my side. I patted him on the back trying to comfort him. As far as I could remember I had no experience with kids.
"11...we can make an alliance. Just us two...for know?" He whispered to me. I mulled the thought over. He was just a kid, what harm could he do. No, I shook my head. This was no ordinary kid, he could read minds.
"Haruto...I-i'm not sure...maybe for now." I felt myself a bit relieved to actually have an ally, if only a temporary one. I looked up to see the others. They were all still in the corner, communicating in hushed whispers.
"We're never going to get out of here are we?" Haruto whimpered. I heard footsteps in front of us.
"I wouldn't be so sure about that." I looked up to see 15, a glint in his eye. "Come on, I have an idea." Haruto stood up and followed after 15. When he reached the group he turned, noticing I was still sitting in the far corner. He waved his hand motioning me to come. I shook my head, they wouldn't gain my trust so easily. I shook my head and curled up in the corner finally letting sleep take over.

He was freed earlier this year after being convicted of ordering the killing of Mohammed Raja, shot and stabbed to death at his Sutton home.
Last week he successfully overturned an award of £5million compensation to Mr Raja's family and more than £1million in fines imposed for contempt.
Now Mr Hoogstraten, 59, wants freedom for his old friend Robert Knapp, whom he calls "Uncle Bob", and has a criminal history of violence. He says he is also gathering evidence to demolish the case against fellow hitman David Croke. He claims he has a forensic report which was never used in the 2002 Old Bailey trial which resulted in Croke and Knapp being convicted of murder and Mr Hoogstraten found guilty of manslaughter. "They will be free within months," he said.
Mr Hoogstraten has always maintained his innocence. His conviction for manslaughter was quashed on the grounds that the trial judge had misdirected the jury. A second trial collapsed due to insufficient evidence.

Neil George Hair Products, Will You Look Like Reese?Tuesday, December 16, 2008
I've professed my love for Reese before, especially for her perfect blondness....
Well, it turns out that she's one of many celebs that frequent Neil George. Neil George is one of those fun Beverly HIlls salons that came together from staff of other salons, the owners alone have worked at Privé, Joseph Martin, Art Luna and Chris McMillan in Los Angeles. I'm not even mentioning where they worked in New York and London. I swear the good stylists just rotate amongst the famous salons... Anyways, Cameron Diaz, Heidi Klum, Rebecca Romijn, Kate Hudson, Rose McGowan, Ashley Olsen, Heidi Klum, Molly Sims, and Amanda Bynes all go there too! This must be a secret LA hair spot. If I ever need to get my hair done in LA, I'm heading there!
They've just released their own line of products, starting with shampoo and conditioner. I wanted to try out the Intense Illuminating products, which are geared towards "dry, dehydrated and chemically treated hair." Which is pretty much the perfect description of my hair! The products contain Indian Gooseberry, an anti-oxidant. I'm not sure how much an anti-oxidant will do for your hair, but I'm sure it will likely help with the color you paid so much for, not to mention help your scalp.
Overall, I did like these products. They smell great (they're described as "grapefruit sage" which is a great citrus herbal scent), have nice lather and rinse out very easily. My hair was definitely shiny and smelled great. I did find that my hair, while a bit dry, is not quite dry enough for these products. I was a bit over moisturized, which did weigh down my hair a bit. When I switched to using these products every other wash I found I was then perfectly moisturized with soft and easy to manage hair.
If you have hair that is color treated and dry this might be a great option for you!
Neil George Salon, products are available at Space NK

You can LIVE again."

To enable them to find comfort and control in a world that may cause them to feel like they are being tossed around at the whim of the next wind or next wave."
"**Limited Evening Appointments Available** Call for Details."
"You do not need a mental health diagnosis to see a counselor and seeing a counselor doesn't mean there is something wrong with you. People see counselors for many different reasons. Some do have mental health problems and therefore come to therapy for treatment and help. Others come to therapy for other life problems such as relationship problems, stressful work environments, worries about their future or their kids, struggles with their faith and spirituality, or grief and loss, etc. Counseling is an investment in the betterment of your life."

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker Associate who will provide empathy, compassion, and guidance along with research/evidence based therapy methods that are proven to help."
"You're probably wondering if therapy can help. You may be feeling unsure how to label what you are going through and don't know yet what you want to get out of therapy. Even if you are unsure about what your goals are, you do know that some of what is going on right now isn't working and you are thinking about getting help. Feel free to call or email to start a conversation to see if we might be a good fit for working together so that you can get closer to being you and being happier."

I offer individual counseling services to children, teens, adults, as well as families. Together we can collaborate to make steps towards meaningful changes in your life.

Once fully ramped up, the lines will increase the Company's total production capacity by 135,000 metric tons to 390,000 metric tons per annum. The additional capacity will start to contribute to the Company's production capacity during the first quarter of 2013. The new production lines are stationed in the Company's three newly-built plants within the Company's Number 3 production base in Harbin. As part of the development of the new production lines, the Company also completed the purchase of over 60 sets of specialized research and development equipment to enhance its capability of higher value-added product development. The production expansion and addition of research and development equipment will facilitate China XD Plastics to meet the growing demand for higher value-added modified plastic products and further diversify the Company's leading product portfolio. Mr. Jie Han said: "Today marks another important milestone in the Company's development, and along with our continuing investments in research and development, this new capacity is a significant part of our long-term growth strategy. The higher value-added and higher margin products manufactured on these new production lines will allow us to better accommodate the growing demand for our products and further diversify our modified plastics product portfolio. Going forward, we will continue to make strategic investments that strengthen our market-leading position and help us deliver long-term value to our shareholders."

A £3.5 billion plan to create a London version of Manhattan's vibrant Meatpacking District in a derelict stretch of Docklands is unveiled today.
Developers want to transform a long-abandoned 62-acre site at Silvertown Quays into a new east London neighbourhood with up to 3,000 homes, a piazza the size of Covent Garden, more than a mile of waterfront, and a collection of "brand flagship" pavilions for some of the world's biggest companies.
The masterplan, which has been three years in preparation, was submitted to Newham council last night and will make Silvertown Quays one of London's biggest regeneration projects, after Battersea Power station and Earls Court.
It will centre on the vast Art Deco Millennium Mills, the last surviving disused flour mill on the Thames, which has been used as a set for the TV series Ashes to Ashes and the Derek Jarman film The Last of England. Barry Jessup, a director of London housing developers First Base, said the mill would be turned into commercial space that could be used by "people who can't afford to be in Clerkenwell or King's Cross any more because it is too expensive."
The plans devote three million sq ft to corporate "mini-theme parks" showcasing some of the world's best-known brands. Existing examples include World of Coca-Cola in Atlanta, Johnnie Walker House in Shanghai and Mercedes-Benz World in Surrey.
The plans forecast that the rejuvenated Silvertown — named after Victorian rubber tycoon Samuel Winkworth Silver — will attract 13 million visitors a year and help transform one of London's biggest unused former industrial sites. Mr Jessup compared it to New York's Meatpacking District on the banks of the Hudson River, which was revived from catastrophic decline in the Nineties and is now described as the city's "most fashionable neighbourhood."
The proposals include a new bridge across the Royal Victoria Dock to connect Silvertown Quays with the new Crossrail station at Custom House.
Sir Stuart Lipton of The Silvertown Partnership — a consortium of First Base, developer Chelsfield Properties and investor Macquarie Capital — said: "Our vision will create a new piece of our city."Reuse content

America - now with more hope and change
Fewer doctors, higher unemployment, higher taxes, fewer people with insurance, rationed care....it's amazing what the government can do when it sets its mind on something!
Top ten stories that the media is covering-up about Obamacare:
In no particular order…1. Millions are and will lose the insurance Obama promised they could keep. Because ObamaCare forces employers to offer expensive Cadillac plans but also offers the option of paying a fine for not providing health insurance that can be cheaper than providing it, between seven and twenty million Americans are likely to lose their health insurance coverage according to the Congressional Budget Office. The original estimate was closer to four million.2. The cost of healthcare premiums is about to further skyrocket. Premium costs have already exploded, but that is a slow-motion explosion. In the near future, we could see costs double or worse. Naturally, these costs will hit an already burdened middle class hardest.The Federal Reserve's March beige book on economic activity noted that businesses "cited the unknown effects of the Affordable Care Act as reasons for planned layoffs and reluctance to hire more staff."Meanwhile, human resources consulting firm Adecco found that half of the small businesses it surveyed in January either plan to cut their workforce, not hire new workers, or shift to part-time or temporary help because of ObamaCare.4. Potential doctor shortages that will mean rationing. The healthcare industry is already a bureaucratic quagmire. ObamaCare is about to add steroids. As the profession becomes tyrannized by government, the talented people currently practicing medicine plan to get out sooner than expected. Who knows how many will choose not to get in.Doctor shortages lead to the nightmare known as rationed care. Here's an unsettling example already being practiced.

Trading plan for Oct. 28
EUR/USD is trying to overcome $1.2700. The results of the European banks stress tests were a bit better than expected, but data from both the euro area and the US on Monday came lower and outbalanced each other. Tomorrow market players will watch whether the US durable good orders and consumer confidence pick up. We see a kind of a short-term rising channel on the chart since Oct. 23. Resistance is at $1.2740, $1.2770, $1.2790 and $1.2850. Support is at $1.2675 and $1.2625.
Improved risk sentiment may pull AUD/USD higher, though it might be difficult for the pair to get outside of consolidative mood before we hear from the Fed on Wednesday.
GBP/USD has recovered to $1.6150 on Monday. UK CBI Realized Sales came out well above the forecast, rendering support to the pound. The upside remains capped by $1.6180 for now; next levels above the price are $1.6200 and $1.6220/30. Support is seen at $1.6000 and $1.5950. Dovish MPC member Shafik will deliver a speech at 18:30 GMT on Monday, while on Tuesday evening member Cunliffe is scheduled to speak.
USD/JPY trades under bearish pressure on Monday, but holds above the 107.50 support as we write. Last week's close above the 108 mark was a bullish sign, so we see space for more bullish movement. Japan will release September retail sales data at 23:50 GMT on Monday (forecast: 0.9% vs. prior 1.2%).

Illinois Senator Tom Cullerton also visited to cheer on Marklund clients.
Volunteers, including those from Zurich Insurance Group, assisted clients with a variety of activities, including:
• A "javelin" competition: throwing pool "noodles" through Hula Hoops

Crows Nest, New South Wales
|Crows Nest
Sydney, New South Wales
Crows Nest Centre
|4,048 (2011 census)[1]

|North Sydney
Crows Nest is a suburb on the lower North Shore of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. Crows Nest is located in the North Sydney precinct, 5 kilometres north of the Sydney central business district, in the local government area of North Sydney Council.
Crows Nest was originally part of a 524-acre (2.12 km2) land grant made to Edward Wollstonecraft in 1821.[2] The grant extended from the site of the present day Crows Nest to Wollstonecraft. Edward Wollstonecraft built a cottage, the 'Crow's Nest' and, according to his business partner Alexander Berry, chose the name "on account of its elevated and commanding position".[3] Berry later built a more substantial Crow's Nest House on the estate in 1850, taking the name of the earlier cottage.[4] This site is now the site of North Sydney Demonstration School. The gates of Crows Nest House (added in the 1880s) still stand at the Pacific Highway entrance to the school. Berry died at Crows Nest House on 30 November 1873.[5]
St Thomas Rest Park[edit]
St Thomas Rest Park, located in West Street, was originally the cemetery of St Thomas's Church. It was the first burial ground established on Sydney's north shore. The land for the cemetery was donated to the Anglican Parish of St Leonards in 1845 by the prominent landowner and merchant, Alexander Berry. Notable people buried there include Alexander Berry and George Barney. Alexander Berry was buried there with his wife, in 1873, when he died at the age of 92. They are interred in an unusual, pyramid-shaped tomb with his wife's brother, Edward Wollstonecraft, former owner of Crows Nest Farm, after which the area is named. George Barney (lieutenant colonel) was born in London in 1792, and arrived in Sydney in 1835. He held a number of posts, including Commander of the Royal Engineers, and he designed Victoria Barracks. He was responsible for the completion of Fort Denison, Circular Quay, Cockatoo Dock and Darlinghurst Gaol.
The park includes the original sexton's cottage, which is now used as a museum of local history, and is heritage-listed.[6]
At the 2011 census, there were 4,048 residents in Crows Nest. 41% of people were in the 25-39 year age group, compared to 20.9% nationally. The most common ancestries in Crows Nest were English 24.2%, Australian 19.7%, Irish 9.1%, Scottish 6.8% and Chinese 4.9%. For employed people aged 15 years and over, the most common occupations included Professionals 41.6%, Managers 20.4%, Clerical and Administrative Workers 13.4%, Technicians and Trades Workers 7.6%, and Sales Workers 6.6%.[7]
Commercial area[edit]
Crows Nest is a significant commercial district which is noted for its variety of shops and restaurants. It is centred on the junction of five main roads about 1 kilometre north by northwest of the original site of Crows Nest House.
The Warringah Freeway runs along the northern border of Crows Nest and the Pacific Highway is a major road along the western border. The new Sydney Metro line will include a station and major interchange at the far south side of Crows Nest and is due to open in 2024.

|Re: Efficient way of loading multiple properties of a node?
|Tue, 24 Oct 2006 12:31:46 GMT
Hi, On 10/24/06, Marcel May <email@example.com> wrote: > I rather thought about aggressive loading for the bulk operations, when > all nodes or properties are iterated. I'd like the Node.getProperties() or > Node.getProperties("somePattern") to fetch the properties not through the > LazyItemIterator which always preloads the next item but in one bulk > call to the backend (for my case, a database). The same applies to > Node.getNodes() and Node.getNodes("somePattern"). Good point, I agree. JCR-RMI already does some of this optimization by accessing remote iterators in bulk steps, but it still needs to do a network roundtrip if you access the property contents with a call like Property.getString(). In Jackrabbit the main limitation to this kind of a optimization is the PersistenceManager interface that essentially serializes content access to a sequence of individual node and property accesses. The persistence implementation can do some caching to improve performance in common cases, but there's no way for the higher levels to communicate heuristics like Node.getProperties() being called to the persistence layer. > BTW, I'm willing to help out for this as this part is essential for my > company and the current project using Jackrabbit JCR. > Like by providing a benchmark examples (with Jamon monitors), patches etc. Nice, thanks! Well defined benchmarks is an area where we are currently lacking, so any help is much appreciated. > > PS.

Quite creative :-) Thanks. :-) Note that this only helps when using JCR-RMI or some other layer that works on top of the JCR API with high latencies. This wont help when using Jackrabbit locally, since the Jackrabbit XML exporter essentially invokes the same node and property access calls that a normal client would to get the same content.

Always remember them.
Poem by: xXloriettaXx
Status: Finished
Genre: War and Military
Stand in silence, bow your head.
Pray for the dead.
Remember those who've fought for us.
Give respect for them , they have made our country free.
So stand proud of them and bow your head in silence.
Thank them with the silence.
They have given us what some others only dream of.
They were fathers, sons and brothers.
They gave their life for us.
They will be missed.
They are loved.
And they will never be forgotten.
Wear a poppie. A symbol of respect.
A red little flower, it means so much.
The soldier lay in flanders fields where the poppies grow.
So wear a poppie and show resepct.
And show you will never forget
