text: Economy 24 August 2012 Can the country be any more unified against George Osborne that it already is? Only 16 per cent of the country approve of the chancellor. Polls don't get much more unified than that. Sign up for our weekly email * Print HTML Earlier this week, an ITV News/ComRes poll revealed that voter trust in George Osborne has hit a new low for the Chancellor: Only 16% of the British public appear to trust the Chancellor George Osborne to see the country through the current economic situation, according to the ITV News Index Poll carried out by ComRes. . . That compares to 17% for shadow chancellor Ed Balls, up one percentage point from July. He was on 14% when he took over from Alan Johnson in January 2011. Certainly those are pretty abysmally low numbers, though they are artificially buoyed-up by the high number of don't knows (22 per cent). But how do they stand in the grand scheme of things? How united can the country get when it comes to opinion polls? And will there ever be a time when 100 per cent of respondents have no trust in George Osborne? The answer to the last question, certainly, seems a pretty resounding "no". ICM's Gregor Jackson says that "based on my 12 years experience in the industry, it's rare to get higher than 70 per cent agreement on leadership approval." Approval ratings are the bread and butter of the polling industry, alongside the important voting intentions. The George Osborne question was more specific than approval ratings usually are – focusing, as it did, on his handling of the economy, rather than his performance in general – which may explain some of the level of disagreement. But given that only 62 per cent of the country was prepared to actively say they disapproved of his handling, it still comes in well below the threshold. Compare that to the times when there really has been near-unanimity in the country. YouGov's Joe Twyman tells me that, in 1943, the approval ratings for Winston Churchill were 93 per cent positive. Even then, 4 per cent of the country disapproved of the man, giving him a "net approval rating" of 89 per cent (net approval can be anything between 100 per cent and -100 per cent. For comparison, David Cameron has a net approval rating as the leader of the Conservative party of -25 per cent). Outside of the obviously unusual circumstances of the Second World War, the highest was Tony Blair in the late nineties, who satisfied 82 per cent of the public with his performance (while dissatisfying 10 per cent, leading to a net approval of 72 per cent). Even a Prime Minister who was, as Twyman put it, "phenomenally good at being phenomenally popular" only just managed to get more than four fifths of the country approving of his performance. Of course, the ITV News poll is only partially a simple approval poll. It's also a referendum of sorts on George Osborne's policies, and those questions often have far greater agreement. Twyman refers to a certain type of policy question as "drowning puppy questions". If you ask 1,000 Britons whether they prefer drowning puppies or cutting taxes, it's pretty easy to engineer artificial agreement. Train fare rises are an example from closer to real-life: if you ask the public whether they are in favour of the recent 6 per cent increase, 84 per cent say they aren't. But when you present the policy as a choice between fare rises or equivalent income tax rises (pdf, pg 18), the results are split, with 39 per cent in favour of the fare increases compared to 32 per cent in favour of tax rises. Some of the highest levels of agreement ComRes has seen in the last year or so sound pretty close to being drowned puppy questions. 81 per cent of respondents thought in March that the income tax threshold should be raised to £10,000, while 74 per cent thought last month that G4S should have paid a bonus as well as contractual costs to soldiers roped in to cover their mess in the Olympics security fiasco. Others, however, are questions which are perfectly amenable to differences of opinion, but which genuinely generate widespread agreement. Into this category falls, for instance, the question of whether or not there should be a referendum on EU membership (71 per cent think there should be) or on whether coalition policy should be focused more on promoting growth and less on cuts (72 per cent think that it should be). It's into this category, really, that the Osborne poll falls. No-one can reasonably claim that it's a drowned puppy question – certainly there are some people who are happy to defend his capability – but at the same time, it's not as open-ended as genuine approval ratings. He can, at least, comfort himself with the fact that he's 11 per cent more popular than Abu Hamza – 73 per cent of the country wanted to see him deported. › Inspiration in schools beyond the Great Grade Grab Telephone pollsters work during the 2004 US presidential election.

A variety of textiles went on display to the public during a Fabric Fusion event.
An estimated 2,000 people visited St Margaret's Hall in Bradford on Avon on Saturday and Sunday, to see products created by 20 craftspeople.
Organiser Wellie O'Driscoll said: "It was an event to showcase local artists and went very well. We raised a lot of money for Wiltshire Air Ambulance."
One of the exhibitors was Made in Bradford, a shop that sells products made by a range of locally-based specialists.
The hall hosts a Jewellery, Beads and Findings Fair from 10am to 5pm tomorrow, also in aid of the air ambulance appeal.
Then, on Sunday from 10am to 5pm, a Vintage Retro and Nostalgia Fair will raise money for Dorothy House.

Extended agent for Oracle, Configuration in cluster environment
Technote (FAQ)
How should ITCAM Extended monitoring agent for Oracle be configured, in a high availability cluster environment, such as HACMP, so that agent will automatically start on the active node during node failover?
For a non-RAC cluster environment such as HACMP, following configuration steps are recommended so that the failover starts the agent on active node of the cluster:
Step 1. There are two possibilities of agent install location, shared disk or non-shared disk on the two nodes.
- If the Extended agent for Oracle is installed in local non-shared disk on each node of the cluster then configure the agent with same instance name separately, and then update the rz_<instance>.config file in all nodes as per step 2.
- If the Extended agent for Oracle is installed in a shared disk location of the cluster environment then make a copy of ITM/config/<active_hostname>_rz_<instance>.cfg and rename it to <standby_hostname>_rz_<instance>.cfg.
This will allow the agent start up script to find the configuration file on the failover node when the switch occurs and the agent will start successfully.
Step 2. Add following line in the ITM/config/rz_<instance>.config file:
export CTIRA_HOSTNAME=cluster_name
This will cause the agent to show under cluster_name in TEP navigation instead of under individual node host names.
Step 3. Add the Oracle agent process (service) to the group of Oracle database services in the failover management tool.

Teddy Bear Biscuits Recipe
"Children can't resist helping to assemble these cute cinnamony bears before baking," remarks Catherine Berra Bleem of Walsh, Illinois. "Refrigerated biscuit dough makes them easy, convenient and fun!"
- 1 tube (7-1/2 ounces) refrigerated buttermilk biscuits (10 biscuits)
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 9 miniature semisweet chocolate chips
- 1. For each bear, shape one biscuit into an oval for the body and place on a greased baking sheet. Cut one biscuit into four pieces; shape into balls for arms and legs. Place next to body.
- 2. Cut one biscuit into two small pieces and one large pieces; shape into head and ears and place above body. Brush with egg. Combine sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over bears.
- 3. Bake at 425° for 8-10 minutes (the one remaining biscuit can be baked with the bears)or until golden brown. Place chocolate chips on head for eyes and nose while the biscuits are still warm. Yield: 3 bears.

It may seem perverse to disparage expert advice and then offer some of one's own, but there are some valuable lessons to be learnt by individual investors in an endlessly uncertain marketplace. Most people need to lock in a preferably guaranteed income stream, such as an annuity or superannuation pension, or at least a steady blue chip yield. The safest course may be to take a random walk and stick close to the index, but for those who can afford a little spice in their financial lives, there is no shortage of sage advice.
There is also no substitute for reading and research, but the key is to sift the nuggets from the white noise – presumably why Margaret Thatcher famously claimed never to read newspapers. We shouldn't ignore all predictions, but we should never bet the farm, or put most of our eggs in one basket. Diversity across asset classes is a tried and true axiom. Calculated borrowing is one thing, but too many non-professionals are tempted to back their judgment and take a punt – a case of the triumph of hope over experience.
Having a contrarian streak so that we can better withstand both the temptation to triumph and the fear of disaster by not succumbing to greed or panic, is a good start. In the meantime, if we are to be prepared at all times, the main lesson is never to be highly leveraged. Even a cursory look at the GFC fallout shows that, whether it was Lehman Bros in the US or Babcock & Brown in Australia, debt conservatism is the key to relative success.
And for those wanting to learn the art of investing, you probably can't do better than listening to those with proven expertise, and not being seduced by the siren call of commentators.

I'm a writer and a bookworm by nature and but also like the way light and color tell a story. I can lose myself happily on a journey through images just as easily as I can through words. Much of my love of photography comes from being raised by one. My father, a professional photographer, took pictures and developed them for several years since before I was born in 1975. I picked it up as a hobby in high school and now it has become something like an addiction. I shoot with a Nikon. The coolpix3200, and old film camera with three lenses and a D60 with a 55mm and a telephoto.

ISIS use of Telegram is the latest bogeyman in the security services' breathless demonization of encryption. But it turns out the self-styled Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant -- some prefer to call it Daesh -- used barely-encrypted SMS to communicate in Paris and Belgium.
But the Telegram app has nuked "78 ISIS-related channels across 12 languages." See? See? End-to-end encryption helps terrorists!
Err, except Telegram isn't end-to-end encrypted. Idiots.
And it gets worse. Telegram closing these IS-themed Channels has probably blocked a valuable source of intelligence.
In IT Blogwatch, bloggers are mad as heck. And they're not gonna take it any more... Not to mention: 'ISIS Is Weak'...
Your humble blogwatcher curated these bloggy bits for your entertainment.
[Developing story: Updated 9:21 am PST with more comment]
Dan Froomkin says we've been lied to. In his article, Signs Point to Unencrypted Communications Between Terror Suspects, he implies this whole encryption push is a smokescreen:
News emerging from Paris [the] Belgian ISIS raid in January suggest that the ISIS terror networks...were communicating in the clear, and that the data on their smartphones was not encrypted.
The location of...a suspected safe house...was extracted from a cellphone, apparently belonging to one of the attackers, found in the trash outside the Bataclan concert hall.
Details about the major ISIS terror plot averted 10 months ago in Belgium also indicate that while...Abdelhamid Abaaoud, the suspected strategist...previously attempted to avoid government surveillance, he did not use encryption.
Abaaoud directed the foiled operation there by cellphone from Greece and...his communications were in fact intercepted. ... Some of the telephone conversations that were intercepted used code or obscure...dialects.
When it comes to defeating electronic surveillance, there's good reason to question his tradecraft. MORE
Karl Bode is infuriated. His headline says it all -- After Endless Demonization Of Encryption, Police Find Paris Attackers Coordinated Via Unencrypted SMS:
Encryption has continued to be a useful bogeyman.
[But there's] no evidence...that the terrorists used incredibly sophisticated encryption techniques. [And] claims the attackers had used encrypted Playstation 4 communications also wound up being bunk.
Yet amazingly enough, as actual investigative details emerge, it appears that most of the communications...was conducted via unencrypted vanilla SMS.
Existing capabilities stopped the Belgium attacks and could have stopped the Paris attacks. ... To use a tragedy to vilify encryption, push for surveillance expansion, and...make everybody less safe is nearly as gruesome as the attacks themselves. MORE
Don't worry. The mighty Michelle Quinn has got this. After Paris attacks, technology is the scapegoat:
Blame technology. ... An obvious scapegoat is encryption. ... It's an understandable reaction.
We don't know much about how the attacks were carried out. That hasn't stopped intelligence officers, law enforcement officials and others from calling attention to technology's potential role.
Everyone needs to take a breath. ... Do we want to live in a world where we sacrifice our privacy and...security so that law enforcement has a long-shot chance to stop the next attack?
I don't envy law enforcement. ... But our freedoms are vital too; they make us who we are. MORE
Were Sean Gallagher and others perhaps misled by security sources? He implies use of "unbreakable" end-to-end encryption -- Telegram encrypted messaging service cracks down on ISIS broadcasts:
In the wake of revelations that groups affiliated with the Islamic State were using the Telegram messaging service to communicate and spread propaganda...the nonprofit...running the service announced that it had moved to block [them].
The channels were identified and blocked in part because of abuse reports filed by Telegram users. ... While the channels are connected to a specific profile by the service, the user can post content...anonymously. MORE
Encrypted, yes -- but nothing that the NSA can't access under its current powers. In fact, closing the channels down was perhaps an own-goal. The ACLU's Christopher Soghoian clarifies in a series of tweets:
"Channels" on Telegram...were likely a valuable source of intel for govs.
Messages...Group Chats [and] Channels [are] not e-2-e encrypted.
Legislation to ban burners and require mandatory registration of cell phones in 3, 2, 1..... MORE
Oh. Here we go again. And Trevor Timm sounds ironically impressed:
Masterful PR job by intel agencies, who've spent the last week blaming encryption to cover up their own failings. MORE
Where's that Golf Clap emoji?
Update: But Sarah Kaplan remembers an inconvenient truth. Pavel Durov, the Telegram honcho, seems to be contradicting himself -- Founder of app used by ISIS once said 'We shouldn't feel guilty':
"I think that privacy, ultimately, and our right for privacy is more important than our fear of...terrorism," [he said] in September.
"I propose banning words, There's evidence that they're being used by terrorists to communicate," he wrote [after Paris].
Which is why [the] statement from Telegram...is such a surprising reversal:.."We were disturbed to learn that Telegram's public channels were being used by ISIS to spread their propaganda."
The statement had a ring of insincerity to it, given Durov's comments.
And Finally...

Have Ford Questions? Ask a Mechanic for Answers ASAP
Hello I'm Chris
When you say gauges does this mean nothing i n the instrument cluster is working at all, no gauges and no warning lights?
You need to remove the fuse panel and the GEM module mounted to the back of it from the area in front of your left knee. Once out, take them apart and look for signs of rust and electrical arcing. Meaning the windshield is leaking and needs to be replaced. It has also caused both the GEM module and CJB (central junction box=fuse panel) to fail also needing replacement. You will also want to look around these 2 components for signs of rust indicating a leak. If you find this to be an issue then thats your problem. if there okay then you need to. Use this FORD DOWNLOAD to work the simplest circuit the windows. All of these failures are connected the battery saver and accessory delay relays in the fuse box, and we need to see if there not turning on. use the below wire diagrams as well if needed.
Thanks for pressing accept, Chris
The year difference does make a difference since there is no GEM on a 02 model and there is not a water leaking issue on a 02 model.
You need to use the below wire diagram and see if the battery saver relay inside the instrument cluster is powering the accessory delay relay and if its not then we need to get the cluster out and check all the power and ground inputs it has.
Download here
Sorry so long getting back. Have not had much time to work on this thing. I just removed the instrument cluster. I just need to know which wires to test. Thanks for your patients.

This past weekend we were able to enjoy the Peking Acrobat show here in Phoenix. Ticket sales were low so we got "upgraded" seats – I really am not sure how this show was missed by so many. It was great and the kids were paying a lot more attention to this show than to some of the more "kid" focused show. Plus my husband truly enjoyed it. I cannot tell you how many times we looked at eachother in awe of what was happening.
Flexibility is one thing – being able to contort your body in magical and fluid motion is another thing! Strength is one thing – holding three people from your heck with ropes is another! Peking Acrobat show was well put-together – fluid and enjoyable by the entire family. Watch for the show to come to your area – and be sure not to miss it!

Philadelphia: The Benjamin Franklin Parkway is the annual host of what the city calls America's "Largest Free Concert." The Party on the Parkway attracts 500,000 people culminates in performances by big names, with this year's lineup including Queen Latifah, Common and Joe Jonas.

"Moonrise Kingdom"
In Wes Anderson's "Moonrise Kingdom," Sam (Jared Gilman) and Suzy (Kara Hayward), both 12, fall in love and run off together after meeting at a local play and corresponding for a year. Sam is an outcast at his "khaki scouts" camp on a New England island and the child of indifferent foster parents. Suzy lives nearby with her estranged lawyer parents (Bill Murray and Frances McDormand) and three younger brothers, and is viewed as a problem child.
Sam, with his camping gear, and Suzy, with her luggage and fantasy books, activate their plan to meet in a field and set off into the wilderness, to the chagrin of Sam's scoutmaster (Edward Norton), the local sheriff (Bruce Willis), Suzy's parents and a social services official (Tilda Swinton), who is determined to put Sam in an orphanage. The two benefit from Sam's training in camping, yet also face a number of challenges, including the one posed by the searchers, who aim to take them away from the refuge they find in each other. They're earnest, adventurous and courageous, and their escapades resonate with the imaginative adventure tales that Suzy loves. Anderson, who directed "The Royal Tenenbaums" and "Darjeeling Limited," has created another delightful, offbeat film that puts its faith in those who don't quite fit in.

Saw it last night. I found it to be delightfully lighthearted, requiring nothing more of me than to sit back, relax and enjoy. I particularly enjoyed the rendition of Mike Oldfield's "Tubular Bells" that accompanied the closing credits.

Asus/Nvidia: Revert changes in JB bootloader that prevent NVFlash
Dear ASUS/Nvidia,
We are owners and prospective owners of an Asus Transformer Series Tablet. However, we were very disappointed that the JB bootloader prevents NVFlash.
While we trust that the TF201/TF300/TF700 will be well-supported with official updates, this tablets have the potential to be an excellent platform for development enthusiasts as well, and we think NVFlash would make them even more attractive for developers and customers.
In the past we had already been able to use NVFlash which saved many devices from a brick and buying a new (maybe Non-Asus) tablet.
Please consider giving us the ability to use the NVFlash tool on the TF201/TF300/TF700 again. We assure that this will establish ASUS' reputation in the community as an excellent and receptive supplier of mobile devices.
Yours faithfully,
The Undersigned

1 / 8
This zesty dressing packs a lot of punch in just 22 calories and 2 grams of fat.
Raspberry Vinaigrette
2 / 8
Give your salads a summery feel with a hint of fruit in this healthy dressing. With just 49 calories and 3 grams of fat, it's a great warm-weather option.
Low-Fat Ranch
3 / 8
Many Americans love the taste of ranch and dip anything and everything in it! The low-fat option of this staple dressing packs a lot of taste in 59 calories and 4 grams of fat.
4 / 8
This dressing is a favorite for most people, but be careful -- it's not necessarily the healthiest. Choose low-fat before the regular but this dressing is still only 86 calories and has 8 grams of fat. Nothing to feel guilty about.
Thousand Island
5 / 8
This creamy, red salad dressing has 111 calories and 11 grams of fat.
Balsamic Vinegar and Olive Oil
6 / 8
This dressing has 133 calories and 14 grams of fat, but no worries -- there are dressings with much higher calorie counts!
7 / 8
This deep red dressing crams a lot of taste with the herb combination. With a hefty 146 calories and 14 grams of fat, use it sparingly.
8 / 8
Many of us have a soft spot for ranch dressing. However, use only a tiny bit to top your salad as it's definitely not the healthiest choice -- and with 145 calories and 15 grams of fat, overdoing it will sabotage the healthy contents of your salad.

Every summer for the past few years, beach goers and music festival attendees alike have been confronted with a curious specimen: the shirtless bloke with a broad Australian accent and an even broader tattoo of the Southern Cross across his shoulder blades.
He is part of a proud patriotic movement that has swelled during the past decade or two. Yet behind him, bystanders point and snigger. Australian patriotism may be noisier than ever, but it is shadowed by a cringe factor, particularly in the wake of the 2005 Cronulla riots.
''It is an extraordinary social phenomenon,'' says James Curran, an associate professor of history at the University of Sydney, ''to see the flag adorn all sorts of public places and to be waved so frenetically … to see the anthem bellowed out at sporting contests in a way that really wasn't the case even 20 years ago.''
Australians have not waved flags so enthusiastically since ''the British race era, when they were waving the Union Jack,'' says Curran, the co-author of The Unknown Nation: Australia after Empire with Stuart Ward.
Successive governments from Whitlam to Howard attempted to instil a refreshed patriotism in Australians, but only recently did the green-and-gold-tinged exuberance catch on.
''This recent phenomenon of flag-waving and anthem-bellowing is a result of, I think, some members of the community becoming a little bit worried by what they see as the chill winds of multiculturalism and globalisation,'' Curran says. ''There is a fear that whatever the Australian essence is, it's being overrun.''
The Australia Day Council of NSW, responsible for organising January 26 celebrations around the state, views the newfound enthusiasm for the country as an unmitigated positive. ''Patriotism is part of the fabric of any society,'' the council chairman, Angelos Frangopoulos, says.
''It really is an expression of our pride in our nation and the people that we are.''
Frangopoulos acknowledges the presence of a small minority of cringeworthy patriots - at their extreme, the aggressive, chest-beating kind witnessed at Cronulla - but applauds the ''maturity'' of most Australians' attitude to their nation.
''As a people, we're a lot more comfortable in our own skin,'' he says. ''We're a lot more comfortable in our patriotism on our national day.''
In response to the increasing multiculturalism of the Australian population, Frangopoulos says: ''A lot of work has gone into broadening out the program and broadening out the [Australia Day] events.''
This year, he says, there is ''a significant variety in the way that Australians celebrate the day … We need to focus on the real positive expressions of patriotism, and really embrace the great opportunities that there are for us as a people to come together.''
Curran, however, warns Australians to ensure their patriotism fulfils the right goals. ''The real question is, for all the flag-waving and outward signs of self-confidence - most of which is fine except when it goes overboard at Cronulla and other places - what new story of Australia is this all about? Do the people who are frantically waving the flag now have a new sense of Australian history, about where the country's going and where it's been?
''The vast majority of people who are waving the flag or cloaking themselves in it, they have an affection for Australia and an enthusiasm for its wellbeing, and there's nothing wrong with that at all.''
For a less jingoistic knees-up ...
If flag-waving and Southern Cross tattoos don't appeal, there are plenty of other ways to show your patriotism on Australia Day.
❏ The Annandale Hotel hosts a Triple J Hottest 100 listening party.
❏ The highest-profile wheelchair race in Australia, the Oz Day 10K, takes over The Rocks.
❏ Inner-west musicians headline a multicultural festival at Enmore Park.
❏ More than 1000 classic cars are on show at the Motorfest at Macquarie, College and Bent streets.
❏ Gledswood Homestead and Winery at Camden takes a trip back to colonial times, with a tour through the historic Chisholm family house.

The Rogers Dance Team opened the season with a first-place finish in a conference jazz meet on Monday at Chisago Lakes.
"They came out very strong," said coach Meg Leonard. "We are dancing with a majority of rookies on the varsity level this year, and you would have never know that with the performance the girls gave."
The RDT scored 343, compared to its season-ending section score of 353 last year.
"To already being scoring that high first time out is very exciting for what will come this year," said the coach.
The Mississippi 8 has expanded with the addition of three teams this year, so this was a seven-team meet. The standings were Rogers, Chisago Lakes, St. Francis, North Branch, Monticello, Buffalo, and Big Lake.
Next for Rogers is the Maple Grove Invitational on Saturday, and a conference meet at Monticello on Monday,

Guardians of the Gorillas
The Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund strives to protect
these majestic creatures in Rwanda
By Alexis Loyd
The Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund International
(Scroll down to see a slide show.)"I discovered that these powerful but shy and gentle animals accepted and responded to my attentions when I acted like a gorilla. So I learned to scratch and groom and beat my chest. I imitated my subjects' vocalizations (hoots, grunts and belches), munched the foliage they ate, kept low to the ground and deliberate in movement -- in short, showed that my curiosity about them matched theirs toward me." -- Dian Fossey
There is something about the look in a mountain gorilla's eyes that is unmistakably familiar. Extensive observation has revealed that they communicate through facial expressions, sounds, postures and gestures. Other research indicates that they demonstrate a range of emotions, from grief to joy.
And like us, the world's largest primates live in families. Their groups usually are comprised of one or more adult males (called silverbacks), along with adult females, juveniles and infants. These gorillas depend on each other. Bonds are formed, and broken, within these clans, similar to human family life.
There are fewer than 800 mountain gorillas left in the world, found only in a region straddling sections of three countries: Uganda, Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Researchers with the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund International, working from the Karisoke Research Center in Rwanda, currently track more than 120 gorillas living in the misty jungle of East Africa's volcanic Virunga Mountains, along the Rwanda-DRC border. At altitudes that can reach higher than 14,000 feet, they work in cold and damp conditions to observe 10 gorilla groups, which range in size from the newest cluster, with only three members, to the most well-established, consisting of 45 individuals.
Monitoring the gorillas is a year-round pursuit. Currently, the Rwandan center employs 60 trackers dedicated to documenting the animals' location, movements and daily behavior.
For those who have been in close proximity to a mountain gorilla, like Clare Richardson, CEO and president of the Atlanta-headquartered Dian Fossey fund, the affinity between humans and gorillas is undeniable. "You can feel it when you're there," she says.
She describes watching a large silverback -- these males can reach up to 400 pounds -- lying on his back while the youngsters of his group climbed all over him. "It's very unusual in the animal world to see a big, dominant male interfacing like that with the infants," she says. "And that makes them so incredibly like us."
Despite this connection, the gorillas are endangered -- mostly due to human activity. Deforestation limits their living space, poachers set traps in their territory and diseases threaten their immune systems. Beyond collecting statistics and recording observations, the Fossey fund strives to guard the endangered animals from threats to their safety.
Snares set by poachers are a constant problem. "Every year we free a couple of gorillas that get caught, and every year we destroy an average of 2,000 snares in the park," says Veronica Vecellio, the gorilla program coordinator at Karisoke, who has gotten to know each of the primates that the organization tracks by its nose print, the unique pattern of wrinkles on the nose.
Anti-poaching teams patrol the Karisoke sector of Volcanoes National Park, removing traps and noting other illegal activities. Some of the elder gorillas, familiar with the havoc wreaked by these disguised traps, have been known to travel ahead and rip them apart, protecting other members of the group. "They have good memories," says Vecellio.
Despite the best efforts of conservationists, not all the gorillas manage to avoid the traps. This February, a convoy discovered the body of an adolescent in a snare. Several area gorillas live as amputees due to trap-related injuries.
These casualties stem from what the nonprofit considers the greatest threat to gorillas: human poverty. "If you're looking globally at the whole conservation issue, poverty is a huge problem in terms of all threatened ecosystems and endangered species," says Richardson.
Poachers who set snares usually are not targeting gorillas, she explains. They are attempting to catch smaller game such as antelope. "It's not commercial bush-meat trading. These are people coming in to get meat for their families."
Gorillas live in the most population-dense African countries, where access to basic necessities -- such as food, clean water and health care -- is limited. The lands surrounding the parks are being converted to farming pastures, which encroaches on gorilla habitat. Civil unrest and attempts to smuggle baby gorillas out of the country to sell to private collectors also are prime dangers for the eastern mountain gorillas, as well as for the Grauer's gorilla, a subspecies that the Fossey fund is working to protect in the Democratic Republic of Congo. These gorillas' lowland counterparts in western Africa are even hunted for food.
In recent months, the mountain gorillas have upped the frequency of their excursions out of the preserve. While they have explored beyond park boundaries in the past, often during bamboo season, Vecellio says that hungry primates have been venturing close to surrounding villages for a taste of something different: eucalyptus tree bark.
"Apparently the gorillas are enjoying it a lot," says Vecellio. However, their craving for this treat leaves them vulnerable to disease and other negative consequences of interacting with the local people and their domestic animals.
The survival of the world's gorillas and the well-being of the people who share their ecosystem are inextricably linked, according to Richardson. In order to combat interspecies conflict, the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund aids area communities through programs that build (and rebuild) schools, provide conservation training and assist in crop-growing and livestock-raising endeavors.
The installation and repair of water tanks helps supply clean water, reducing illegal entry into protected areas for water collection. The fund also tests and provides treatment for intestinal parasites in the surrounding villages (these can be left in the soil and picked up by gorillas) and assists rural health clinics. Through improving the quality of life for the local population, the organization hopes to create partners in the push to conserve the region's land and wildlife.
The Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund also is one of the largest employers in the region and makes concerted efforts to educate and employ locals.
"One of the things that we believe in very strongly is that African nationals must be the majority part of our organization, because it is their natural heritage that we are trying to protect, with the gorillas and the rain-forest habitat they live in," says Richardson. This year the Fossey fund appointed its first African director of the Karisoke Research Center, Rwandan Felix Ndagijimana.
The fund's founder, primatologist Dian Fossey, spent 18 years living among the gorillas in northwestern Rwanda. Before she was the world's leading expert on Rwanda's mountain gorillas, Fossey was an occupational therapist in Kentucky with a love of animals and a desire to explore the globe. Upon seeing pictures of a friend's African vacation, she was determined to make the journey herself. In 1963, she combined her life savings and a bank loan to pay for her first visit to the continent.
During this trip she met renowned archaeologist Louis Leakey, who spoke to her of Jane Goodall's chimpanzee studies, and she encountered the beautiful beasts she would come to hold so close to her heart. By December 1966, Fossey had traded her life in the U.S. for an encampment in Africa. A year later she established the Karisoke center among the verdant peaks of Rwanda's Volcanoes National Park.
And 1967 was also the year she met a 5-year-old gorilla that she named for the damaged finger on his right hand: Digit. She felt drawn to the creature, and he to her. Years of dedication gained her trust among the gorillas and brought about an unconventional friendship with Digit. "Digit was a favorite among the habituated gorillas I was studying," Fossey wrote. "In fact, I was unashamed to call him 'my beloved Digit.'"
On New Year's Eve 1977, Digit and his family group unexpectedly met with poachers who were checking their antelope traps. Digit battled the six poachers and their dogs, allowing his 13 companions to escape but losing his life in the process. His head and hands were severed from his body for trophies. Out of this tragedy, Fossey's foundation was created to protect the world's mountain gorillas and continue the work of the Karisoke Research Center, which grew to a nine-cabin camp. The original site was ransacked several times during the Rwandan genocide of the 1990s, and the center's programs eventually were relocated to Musanze, formerly Ruhengeri.
Much has changed since the days when Fossey sent her typewritten reports of gorilla activity down the mountain in waterproof pouches, bound for a bus to the nearest town and then for the mail. Today, interested readers can check for updates at www.GorillaFund.org, which has a link to the Gorilla Blog under the News and Events tab. But the Fossey fund stays true to the goals of its founder. Though she was murdered in her cabin at Karisoke in 1985 -- she was buried next to her beloved Digit -- Dian Fossey's legacy lives on through her nonprofit.
Decades of conservation efforts by national park authorities and the Fossey fund have paid off. According to the last census, the gorilla population in the Virunga Mountains has grown from roughly 260 in Fossey's time to about 480 individuals in 2010, making this the only great ape population to have increased in recent decades. Hope for the gorillas' survival continues: In mid-March Karisoke trackers were witness to the arrival of a newborn.
While it's a rare person who, like Fossey, will abandon the life she knows and follow her heart to the wilds of Africa, there are other ways to help safeguard the continent's gorillas. Through www.GorillaFund.org, "People can become ambassadors and advocates for us and for the gorillas," says Richardson. Becoming a member, adopting a gorilla or hosting a fundraising event all are possibilities.
According to Richardson and Vecellio, tourism is vital to the survival of the species, both for its educational value and for the money it brings to their homeland. "Without tourism Rwanda would probably not have any more gorillas," says Vecellio.
Funds from the sale of gorilla-viewing permits and park entrance fees are an essential support for preservation programs.
"We would encourage people to go see the gorillas," Richardson adds. "It will change the way that they think about them forever."
Visiting the Gorillas
Vacations To Go is a corporate sponsor of the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund International. The full-service travel agency, which is the world's largest seller of oceangoing cruises and river cruises, also offers tropical resort stays, escorted tours and safaris in eastern and southern Africa, including trips to see the endangered mountain gorillas of Rwanda and Uganda.
Expert guides lead small parties of travelers through thick forests to family groups of gorillas, where participants spend about one hour observing the creatures. Certain rules and restrictions are in place to protect the primates. Guests are asked to maintain a calm demeanor and stay a minimum of 15 feet away from the animals. Children under the age of 15 and those who have colds or other contagious illnesses cannot participate.
For more information about escorted trips to the gorilla territories of Rwanda and Uganda, call the safari experts at Vacations To Go, (800) 291-3346, or visit www.AfricaSafari.com.

They'll flank the Kinara, which is the candleholder with 7 candles, one per Kwanzaa principle. (phew!) The other fruits and vegetables go in the mazao (basket). Traditional inclusions are pumpkins, squash, bananas and sweet potatoes--and whatever else you like. Since these are seasonal, the LocalHarvest stores should have them available for home delivery, so that you can focus on the rest of your Kwanzaa decorations!Tags: food, kitchen, organic, air, produce, organic produce, holiday decorations, gift baskets, Organic FoodAdded 10 Years Ago from Localharvest

'Gone Girl' Trailer: Ben Affleck Leads David Fincher's Latest Thriller
David Fincher may not be directing a Steve Jobs biopic, but that doesn't mean he isn't keeping busy as his latest film, 'Gone Girl,' hits theaters later this year. The film, which is based on the best selling novel, stars Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike, and now the first 'Gone Girl' trailer has hit the web.
'Amazing Spider-Man 2′ Reviews: Early Buzz is Mixed on the Web Slinger's Return
'The Amazing Spider-Man 2' is opening internationally weeks before it hits the American market, which means that today offered the first tweets and reviews of the movie. And with a number of reports in it's fair to say the film, which stars Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Jamie Foxx, and Dane DeHaan, is not being greeted with the same enthusiasm that 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier' was, that's for sure.
'Battlestar Galactica' to Find New Life as a Movie Franchise With 'Transcendence' Scripter
Universal is now working on a third version of 'Battlestar Galactica,' this time for the big screen, and have hired 'Transcendence' screenwriter Jack Paglen to write it. As when Ron Moore did it, it's likely that it will take the basic outline and go its own way with it (though there will surely be Cylons and a character named Starbuck).
'Guardians of the Galaxy' LEGOs Preview the Film's Big Action Sequences
Though we're still a couple months away from the release of 'Guardians of the Galaxy,' the latest LEGO sets offer a preview of what to expect from the movie, while also giving toy collectors something to salivate over.
'Captain America 2′ Gets the Mondo Poster Treatment as Advanced Ticket Sales Surge
As we're mere hours away from the release of 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier,' it's fitting that Mondo has announced that tomorrow they will be selling two Rich Kelly-designed posters for the movie, which is poised to break all previous April box office records.
'Star Wars: Episode 7′ to Begin Shooting On Tatooine in Six Weeks?
It's been almost a year and a half since 'Star Wars: Episode 7' was announced and over fifteen months since J.J. Abrams became the film's director, but with a December 18, 2015 release date, the film has to begin production shortly if they hope to come out next year. The latest word is the film will commence principle photography in Morocco on May 14.
New 'Purge 2′ Trailer: Frank Grillo Might Protect You From 'Anarchy'
Frank Grillo is about to make a big impression with his role as Crossbones in 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier,' but before that, check out his new horror role in the latest 'The Purge 2' trailer (the film being officially titled 'The Purge: Anarchy'). Grillo plays a character who seems to know how to handle a night of purging, but to what end?
'Prometheus 2′ Gets New Writer, May Already Be Dated for March 2016
It's been all quiet on the 'Prometheus 2' front for a while now, and it seemed like the studio might let the proposed sequel shrink away. Today proves that they're still interested as Michael Green has been hired to do rewrites, and Fox is looking at a fall start date, with a possible March 2016 release.
'Ghostbusters 3′ Plots 2015 Start, Loses Director Ivan Reitman
With the passing of Harold Ramis, we were hoping that it would also put to rest the possibility of a third 'Ghostbusters' film. But Sony announced that they are going forward with 'Ghostbusters 3,' and now director Ivan Reitman has clarified they plan to start within the next year, though he will no longer be on board as the director.
Marvel Could Release New Superhero Films Quarterly
Since 2011 Marvel has been pushing to release two films a year. Last year gave us 'Iron Man 3' and 'Thor: The Dark World' with this year offering both 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier' and 'Guardians of the Galaxy,' while 2015 will bring 'The Avengers: Age of Ultron' and 'Ant-Man.' And as the studio keeps having hits, they may expand their slate to release three to four films a year.
'Terminator 5′ Looks to Add 'Spider-Man' Star J.K. Simmons
'Terminator 5,' which has the subtitle 'Genesis,' is going to have the sticky problem of trying to reboot the franchise to start a new trilogy, while also interweaving material from the original four films (though likely it will stick closer to the first film, with nods to some of the sequels) on top of bringing back Arnold Schwarzenegger in some capacity. To help provide the duct tape to make this possible, the film is looking to recruit J.K. Simmons to play a very important role.
Freddie Mercury Biopic Loses Current Director, May Be Cursed
Sacha Baron Cohen was attached to the Freddie Mercury biopic for many years, but once the project started moving forward Cohen left, and the film seemed like it might die. But then Ben Whishaw joined and actor-turned-director Dexter Fletcher was hired to helm the project. Now Fletcher has left the film, citing "creative differences," which makes us wonder if this project is cursed.

He goes to every meeting of the San Juan Capistrano Fiesta Association, attended the opening of the new Marriott Residence Inn and made an appearance at last weekend's Kids Pet Parade. But you wouldn't have noticed him unless you checked around your ankles.
Meet Deputy Dog Gus, the unofficial mascot of this year's Swallows Day Parade, coming March 24.
Gus is a Pembroke Welsh corgi who was taken in three years ago by John Fischle, who as this year's Senor San Juan is one of the Fiesta Association's public faces at events during the Fiesta de las Golondrinas, or Swallows Festival.
Gus, who is believed to be about 4 years old, was abandoned three years ago on a school bus by his former owner, a homeless man in Dana Point. Fischle, a teacher for the Orange County Department of Education, decided to take Gus under his wing after some of his students took the dog to class.
Now, Fischle and Ms. Fiesta Nancy Ingham take Gus everywhere.
The Swallows Day Parade has never had a mascot before, and Ingham said Gus provides a fun way to get people excited about it.
"Every cowboy needs a cowboy dog," Ingham said. "He's our cowboy dog."
To try to get as many children as possible involved in the Swallows Day Parade, the San Juan Capistrano Fiesta Association is inviting kids to color a picture of unofficial mascot Deputy Dog Gus and show him their work as he rides in a carriage during the March 24 parade.
So, kids, get out your crayons or marking pens, print out this picture and give Deputy Dog some color.

A two-out error in left field extended the inning for Ferguson.
Josalyn Ress pitched a complete game for Tell City, giving up only one earned run. She gave up five hits and three walks and struck out nine.
Tell City took a 3-0 lead in the third inning on one hit, a two-run double by McKenzie Hayes.

CANNELTON—Stronger defense could help Cannelton's girls softball team improve on last year's 1-11 record.
"I think we're better defensively than we were last year," said Coach Brian Garrett.
Three starting infielders return, though each will play a different position than last year.
Allicyn Garrett moves from first base to shortstop, "her natural position," said Brian Garrett. "She reads the ball extremely well."
TELL CITY—Each team won eight events, but Southridge used its depth in the shot put and middle distance races to beat Tell City 67.5-63.5 in girls track Tuesday.
Tell City freshman Logan Flannagan broke Kate Schipp's school record in the 100-meter intermediate hurdles by 64-hundredths of a second, winning them in 17.15 seconds (manually timed).
Flannagan also won the 300 low hurdles in 49.18 and the high jump at 4 feet, 10 inches.
She teamed with Tori Payne, Katlyn Braunecker and Sarah Goffinet to win the 1600 relay in 4:40.
RAMSEY—Perry Central swept all the places in the 400-, 800-, 1600- and 3200-meter runs to beat North Harrison 74-56 in girls track Tuesday.
Each team won eight events but Perry Central's depth in those races made the difference.
Cathryn Peter won the 1600 in 6:17 and the 3200 in 13:14. Lavina Schwartz placed second in both.
Susan Schwartz won the 800 in 2:51 and Deidra Dickerson took the 400 in 1:08.
Lindsey Gengelbach set a school record in the pole vault as she cleared 8 feet to win it.
TELL CITY—One set had to go to a tie-breaker, but Gibson Southern won every match in straight sets to beat Tell City 5-0 in PAC girls tennis Saturday.
RAMSEY—Dacota Schaad won one individual sprint and two relays as Perry Central beat North Harrison 82-50 in boys track Tuesday.
Schaad won the 200-meter dash in 24.34 seconds.
He teamed with Hunter LaGrange, Mikey Wilkerson and Austin LeClere to win the 400 relay in 47.27.
Schaad, Logan Dauby, Neal Schwartz and Ian Bashor won the 1600 relay in 3:52.

TELL CITY—Tell City won 10 of 11 running events and trounced Southridge 96-30 in boys track Tuesday.
Tell City swept all three places in both hurdles races and the two longest distance races.
Tyler Dauby won the 110-meter high hurdles in 15.94 seconds and David McDaniel took the 300 intermediates in 42.30.
McDaniel also won the high jump by clearing 6 feet, 2 inches.
He teamed with Colton Thomas, Brennan Malone and Ryan Henrickson to win the 1600 relay in 3:43.66.
LEOPOLD—Andrew Harpenau threw a four-hit shutout and Perry Central finally put some hits together in the fifth inning to beat Orleans 4-0 in PLAC baseball Saturday.
Harpenau struck out nine and walked one as he threw only 72 pitches.
"Andrew looked really good," said Perry Central Coach Phil Zellers. He got ahead in the count and threw his pitches. He mixed it up really well."
Perry Central was also scoreless until the fifth inning, when it hit three doubles and a single back-to-back.
EVANSVILLE—National baseball reporter Peter Gammons thinks the theory that a power hitter needs protection from other home run hitters in the lineup is overrated. Trent Gunn is proving him correct.
Gunn hit two home runs as Tell City beat Evansville Memorial 9-6 Saturday. That gave him four home runs in three games this year after he hit a school-record 11 last year.
But he is continuing his power surge this year despite the graduation of the power hitters who batted in front of and behind him last year.

Fed Chief Bernanke Public Approval Falls to Lowest With Too-Slow Economy
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke's standing with the public has slid to its lowest level in almost two years of polling on the issue, even as faith in the Federal Reserve holds up.
Bernanke is viewed favorably by 30 percent of those polled, compared with 26 percent who view him unfavorably; the remainder are unsure. In September of 2009, Bernanke enjoyed 41 percent approval and 22 percent disapproval. The Fed itself is viewed favorably by 42 percent of voters, little changed from previous surveys.
The Bloomberg National Poll, conducted June 17-20, shows that the reputation of Bernanke, who led the central bank through the longest U.S. recession since the Great Depression, has slid lower as the unemployment rate has remained stuck near 9 percent or higher for 26 consecutive months.
"It's a reflection of the fact that most Americans still don't feel the economy is in recovery," said Greg Valliere, chief political strategist at Potomac Research Group in Washington. "If a team is doing poorly, the quarterback gets a disproportionate share of the blame."
The survey also shows a politically polarized view of the central bank chairman. Bernanke is viewed favorably by 24 percent of Republicans and unfavorably by 32 percent. Those numbers are flipped with Democrats, 36 percent of whom view him positively and 16 percent negatively.
Central bankers can't be influenced by concerns about the popularity of their actions, said Richard Fisher, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas.
Assigned a Job
"Fortunately we are not politicians -- we're just assigned a job and whether it makes us popular or unpopular is not the issue," Fisher said in an interview today on Bloomberg Television. "We are not in this business for popularity."
Bernanke, 57, himself a registered Republican, became chairman of the Fed in February 2006, after being appointed to head the central bank by President George W. Bush. He was renominated by President Barack Obama and confirmed for a second term in January 2010.
The poll was conducted before the central bank's meeting June 21-22 in which policy makers confirmed the end of their $600 billion bond-purchase program and renewed a pledge to hold interest rates near zero for an "extended period."
Central bankers also cut their forecasts for growth this year and next and raised their estimates for unemployment. In a press conference yesterday, his second since becoming the Fed's chairman, Bernanke said that "we don't have a precise read on why this slower pace of growth is persisting."
Stronger Headwinds
"Some of these headwinds may be stronger and more persistent than we thought," said Bernanke, the former head of the Princeton University economics department, who also served as chairman of Bush's Council of Economic Advisers.
"Two years ago he walked on water -- he extricated us from financial crisis and prevented a return to the Great Depression," said Alan Levenson, chief economist of T. Rowe Price Group Inc. in Baltimore, which has almost $510 billion in assets under management, including those of more than 1 million retail investors.
"Now he's saying unemployment is unacceptably high, but he's not having as much success with that," Levenson said. "To the man on the street, he had it going in 2009 but lost his touch."
Second Round
In November of 2010, the Fed began the second round of its quantitative easing program in an attempt to boost growth, avert deflation and bring down the unemployment rate.
"It was a devil's choice," said survey respondent Marcus Wax, 21, a student at the University of North Dakota. "His motives were right, but I don't really agree with the actions he's taken."
"Our problems are really beyond monetary policy," said Wax. "All the free money he's pumping out right now -- where's it going to go afterwards?"
During Bernanke's tenure, the central bank confronted a financial crisis that led to the collapse of Wall Street firms such as Bear Stearns Cos, Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. and American International Group Inc. In the course of the 18-month recession that followed, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index dropped 57 percent from its record in October 2007.
Emergency Lending
The Federal Reserve undertook $3.3 trillion in emergency lending during the crisis and cut interest rates to a range of zero to 0.25 percent. To support the housing market, it launched a plan to purchase $1.43 trillion in housing debt.
In December 2009, Bernanke was dubbed Time Magazine's "Person of the Year" for being the "mild-mannered man" who "prevented an economic catastrophe." The S&P 500 began to rise in March 2009 and has since climbed 90 percent.
"More than any other person on the face of the earth, he helped us avoid a total meltdown, but there's a disconnect between people in the markets and American voters," Valliere said. Bernanke's insistence that inflation is low or transitory "flies in the face of most Americans' focus on gasoline and food -- they see someone who is not plugged into ordinary Americans' concerns," Valliere said.
For Americans earning less than $25,000 a year, more view Bernanke unfavorably -- 24 percent -- than favorably -- 21 percent. For those earning more than $100,000, Bernanke is viewed positively by 42 percent and negatively by 27 percent.
Two-thirds of Americans in the Bloomberg Poll say the nation is on the "wrong track," and 44 percent say they are worse off now than at the beginning of 2009. Fifty-five percent expect children will have a lower standard of living than their parents do today.
The poll, conducted by Des Moines, Iowa-based Selzer & Co., is based on interviews with 1,000 U.S. adults. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percentage points.

Like when you are looking for a partner do you wish/ hope for a great catch or do you feel that you deserve high quality partners only. Many people are single because they refuse to date people of similar level and are holding out for something better? what do you'll think?
Poll is for the main question
- YesVote A
- NoVote B
Thanks for the answers so far :)
Most Helpful Girl
Guys seem to think so! They whine that they're single but they're only going for girls who are WAY out of their league. I don't mean people are better than others, it's that they're going after girls who put a lot of effort in to things where as they do not AT ALL!
In order for a relationship to work you need to be equals.
Me for example: I'm working towards a PhD in Chem&Biochem, I am the most ambitious person you will meet, I take pride in my appearance and put effort in to it, I don't smoke/do drugs, don't party.
I want a guy who does the same. Why should I better myself when my partner will be a reflection of me?
All these guys with no jobs, don't go to school, have no ambition or desire to do anything other than get free welfare/disability, don't put effort in to their appearance, smoke, drink, party, excessively swear among other things keep asking me out and calling me a bitch because I say no.
This if often true for women seeking man, but not men seeking women. Women are able to get away with being less ambitious and less educated as long she's fun to be around or attractive.

Stayed here for two nights for a soccer tournament with the team -- several of the families switched hotels for their second night. Maybe because the hotel is pet-friendly, but our room had hair and dust bunnies in all corners of the room and bathroom. There was quite a bit of dust on the dresser and tables -- had it been that long since a guest stayed in that particular room? Bathroom was the dirtiest- the toilet seat had residue from the last guest, and there were wrappers in the corner behind the door. There were no toiletries either except for one bar of soap (front desk did give them to me when asked). The ice bucket had no liner, and one of the trash bins had some garbage that had not been cleaned out. Thankfully, the linens were clean, which mattered most to me when we arrived late in the day. Breakfast was nominal -- pre-packaged muffins, bagels, etc. and three cereal choices. No hot meals unless you wanted to make a waffle. The room was very loud, we could hear everything in the corridors as well as outside, above, and beneath us. Since all we did was sleep there, I stayed for the two nights. However, I will not be staying there again! Too bad, since the updates seemed decent and it was a convenient, albeit odd, location.

Frederiksberg High School
This school is part of Frederiksberg Municipality's vision for the area around Frederiksberg Metro as a hub for commerce, culture and education.
Frederiksberg High School is part of a new, dynamic hub in Frederiksberg Municipality comprising the Copenhagen Business School, Frederiksberg Main Library, two large malls (Frederiksberg and Falkoner), and Frederiksberg Metro Station. The high school is part of the municipality's vision for the area around the station as a new traffic hub and focal point for shopping, culture, and education.
The high school is part of the unified plan for "Frederiksberg's new plazas." Its open facades interact with the surroundings and plazas, and its assembly hall and lunchroom face the urban space. Broad staircases lead from the assembly hall to flex rooms and gyms in the basement and wide stairs lead to the stories above, which are airy and transparent. Frederiksberg's local color has been preserved in the form of little green oases, indoor "schoolyards."
The school's top two stories are designed as a campus with visual contact across the corridors and the indoor courts. Both open and more closed rooms provide a great degree of flexibility for teaching and group work. Frederiksberg High School was built to live up to the new ideas of "the virtual high school," where teaching continuously incorporates modern information technology. The school has 650 pupils and 80 teachers.
