As the subtle flavours of autumn begin to permeate the air, some of us will look back and begin to miss the endless days of summer. However, a change of the seasons brings about an entirely new kaleidoscope of activities to enjoy for those who may plan on visiting London. What are a handful of attractions and events that will definitely serve to punctuate any time spent here? Let's list a few of the most popular and interesting.
Sights to See in London this Christmas
If you are in the capital this Christmas – whether in your student housing in London, visiting family or on holiday – there is plenty to see and do to give you a great festive experience. London comes alive with seasonal fun during December but you may also want to use the time to tick off some sights you are yet to check out which are fun any time of the year. As one of the world's leading city break locations London has a huge variety of attractions for you to experience whatever the weather. Here is a list of some sights which you can tick off your list during the Christmas holidays.
Houses of Parliament
The epicentre of power in the nation's capital is steeped in history and is a wonderful example of architecture which spans the centuries. If you want to develop your understanding of some of the processes that government go through you can even attend a debate or sit in on a committee meeting. Although this may not put you in the Christmas spirit!
Science Museum
London's Science Museum is renown around the world for innovative exhibitions and inspirational collections. The venue in South Kensington has been around for over 100 years and houses fascinating resources to feed your brain in your holiday down time.
Home of John Keats
An important address which is missed by many a visitor to the capital, Wentworth Place now hosts a museum devoted to the Romantic poet. The Hampstead property hosts regular events and it is possible to book group tours on days when the museum is closed to the public.
Wiltons Music Hall
Another hidden gem in the city, Wilton's Music Hall is a place of lots of historical importance with the impressive status of the world's oldest surviving Grand Music Hall. Its rugged charm has gained it many loyal regulars but Christmas is the perfect time for the uninitiated to pay homage. Mrs Hudson's Christmas Corker is set in another great London address (Sherlock Holmes' 221B Baker Street) and runs until New Years Eve.
Winter Wonderland
During December, Hyde Park is transformed into a festive fun zone for all the family with an ice rink, giant wheel and circus. If you do find yourself in London during the Christmas period, this place truly is a must-see.
If you are living in East London and aren't willing to venture to Hyde Park then you can still experience a Christmas treat for all the senses with horse-drawn carriages, a fairground and Christmas market at Winterville. Head over to Victoria Park from 2nd December for the full experience.
The London Eye
See London in all its glory from one of its newest icons. The Eye is the perfect place to get a wonderful view of all the capital's famous landmarks. Catch a snowy festive day for an unparalleled visual spectacular.
A Lazy Afternoon at the British Library
I had the pleasure of visiting the oft under appreciated British Library about a week ago for the second time in as many years.It may not look like much from the outside, but if you're a literary fan you know not to judge a book by its cover. Juxtaposed with its neighbour, the stunning St. Pancras Station, the British Library may look a little drab, but its bleak facade hides a treasure trove of paper treasures.
The library's interior lobby is vast, but if you've never visited you don't need to worry about most of the space. Instead, make a beeline for the Sir John Ritblat Gallery. The dimly lit exhibition space doesn't allow photography, but you can get an idea of what the space looks like from the library's official website.
The Gutenberg Bible, a manuscript of Beowulf, Leonardo da Vinci's notes, and the hand scribbled lyrics of John Lennon – they all belong to the gallery's permanent collection. In total, the library has over 170 million items in its collection, including a copy of the Magna Carta from 1215.
If you can pry yourself away from the main gallery (I recommend spending at least 90 minutes in there), then I suggest heading to the library's cafe. Not only do they have a lovely Victoria sponge cake, but here you'll also get a marvellous view an impressive collection of rare and historic book (see photo above).
For flex-workers, freelancers, and the like, the cafe at the British Library offers a pretty good wi-fi connection, and after my most recent visit I'm tempted to come back with my laptop in toe for a few concentrated hours of blogging.
Overshadowed by some of the bigger public museums in London, the British Library doesn't quite get its do. If you find yourself in London for a few days, I recommend stopping by for at least a short visit. The library is conveniently located right next to King's Cross St. Pancras, and those of you who are hopping the Eurostar to Paris can easily pop in for a visit before bounding off to Paris.
Avast! Tall Ships Invade the Thames
I'm not in London at the moment, but that doesn't mean I haven't been keeping an eye on what's going down in my home city. Last weekend I dispatched Girl in London's chief photography (aka my boyfriend) to check out the Tall Ships festival at Wood Warf, Greenwich, and Royal Arsenal.
London, of course, has a rich maritime history and if you look at old paintings of the Thames, you'll see the river full of clippers and other tall ships. If you haven't already, I recommend visiting the National Maritime Museum at Greenwich to learn more about the UK's seafaring heritage.
My other half informed me that though they looked old, most of the ships at the festival were actually built in the last 50 years or so. However, if you want to see a real 19th-century ship, you can once again head to Greenwich and climb on board the Cutty Sark, which was perhaps the most famous and fast clipper ships of its day and logged many nautical miles at sea.
I'll be back in London (and back to putting up more posts) in a few days. In the meantime, enjoy the tall ships!
Top Apps for Visiting London
Hi guys,
Sorry for the lack of updates recently – I'm on a trip to Bangkok and am absolutely swamped with work and other business. I'll be back in London town soon enough with lots and lots of content for ya'll.
In the mean time, here's a great infographic from LA Stretch Limos with some great tips for London visitors. Enjoy!
Summer 2014 in London: What's On
Last winter seems to have lasted forever, but warm weather is finally here and summer is just around the corner. Summer is my favourite season in London, partly because of the lovely climes, and partly because there's so much to do! Here are some of the top festivals, events and attractions on the docket for London, summer 2014:
Food Stuffs
Taste of London – London's best known foodie event is coming to beautiful Regent's park from 18-22 June. 40 of the city's top restaurants will make an appearance at this stored event, which will also include celebrity chef appearances, cooking demonstrations and plenty of food and merchandise vendors. Tickets are 25.80 online, 28.00 at the door.
Street Feast London – Operating from 5pm – midnight each Friday and Saturday from May 16/17 through to September, Street Feast London represents East London at its finest. Quirky street eats from equally quirky vendors come together for this indulgent event. Entry is free before 7pm (£3 after) and most dishes (ranging from hot dogs to kimchi) can be purchased for under £10. To attend, head to Dalston Yard – just a few steps away from the Dalston Junction overground station.
Museum Lates
London's world class museums almost all feature late-open nights, but the long daylight hours of summer make museum lates even more special this time of the year.
The British Museum – Open late each Friday until 8:30pm, visitors can enjoy splendid food from the museum's cafe and browse through the world class exhibits. Free 20-minute tours starting at 5pm highlight some notable areas of the museums collection like the Rosetta Stone, 'Death in Egypt', 'Enlightenment' and 'The Parthenon'. Special paid exhibits like the 'Vikings: Life and Legend' (until June 22nd) are also open late.
The V&A Museum – Open late each Friday until 10:00pm, with a themed event each week. This typically includes highlights of special exhibits, live music and more.
Late at Tate Britain – Open from 6:00pm to 10:00pm on selected Friday. Events include live performances as well as discussions and talks about art, films, culture and more.
Zoo Lates
Not to be outdone, the London Zoo in Regent's Park also opens its doors to summertime frolickers late into the evening. Zoo Lates is an adult friendly event where those of us old enough to drink alcohol can chow down on street eats and guzzle bubbly alongside all our favourite zoo animals. The event runs every Friday night in June and July from 6:00pm to 10:00pm. Tickets can be purchased from the zoo's website here.
BBC Proms
This favorite annual event will be running from 18 July – 13 September this year and will feature all types of classical, world and pop music. Most events will take place at Royal Albert Hall, just opposite Hyde Park in Central London. A complete schedule of prom events can be found here. Showtimes and ticket prices vary.
Rooftop Film Club
Now in Shoreditch, Peckham Rye and Kensington, the Rooftop Film Club presents all kids of celebrated films throughout the summer in beautiful rooftop locations. Most venues have a bar and offer snacks to accompany the film. Tickets sell out quickly, so it's best to reserve them in advance. View the schedule for the Rooftop Film Club here.
Opera in the Park
Each year throughout June and July, Holland Park (close to Kensington and Kensington Gardens) hosts a number of live operas to the delight of Londoners and visitors alike. This year will feature performances of Alice in Wonderland, Madame Butterfly and much more. Tickets range from a very modest 12.00 GPB to 67.50 GBP and can be purchased in advance here.
City of London Festival – Running from 22 June to 17 July, the City of London Festival is jam packed with a series of fun events, performances, discussions and a whole lot more. Venues are scattered across the city, with certain events requiring tickets and other events free of charge.
Greenwich and Docklands International Festival – This large annual theatre event is on from 20 – 28 June and includes a large selection of free street performances and large theatre productions.
Notting Hill Carnival – Scantily clad ladies, live music and great West Indian cooking. What's not to like about the Notting Hill Carnival? This year the carnival is on from 24 – 25 August and like every year, it's bound to get a little crazy. Visitors and locals alike tend to get wild at this carnival that unofficially marks the end of summer.
The top 5 museums in Paris and how to get there without breaking your budget
If you're studying, visiting, or living in London for more than a few weeks, then a trip to Paris pretty much has to be on your itinerary. The two cities are so tantalisingly close to one another that you can't not visit Paris, what with all its fabulous landmarks, museums, and restaurants.
There are a couple of options when it comes to making it across the channel, but sadly few are budget-friendly. One of the few exceptions is iDBUS, which offers fix prices for all their lines – including London to Paris; meaning if you fancy a last-minute getaway you won't be paying up to your eye-balls!
Once safely inside Paris, if you're an art lover or culture vulture like me you're first stop will be one of the City of Light's world renowned museums. Not sure where to start? No worries! Together with the folks at iDBUS, I've compiled a list of the Paris' top museums
Musée D'Orsay
This museum is a converted railway station with rooms flooded by natural light that enters through a glass and iron canopy roof. If you're a fan of impressionism, D'Orsay is for you. It boasts the world's largest collection of impressionist paintings, including works by Renoir, Monet, Cezanne, Degas and Gauguin, just to name a few!
Centre Pompidou
Centre Pompidou is better known for its unusual exterior than for the artwork it carries within its interior. It's anomaly in a city filled with rows of Belle Epoque masterpieces. The decidedly modern facade is the product of three architects who decided to expose all the components of a building that are normally hidden from the outside, including plumbing lines, structural beams, and elevators.
In terms of the artwork inside, there is an interesting and eclectic collection of modern 20th century art, on par with that you would see in the Tate Modern in London (Think Fauvism, Cubism, Surrealism, Expressionism and some abstract works).
Musée Rodin
Entirely dedicated to the French sculptor Auguste Rodin, Musée Rodin houses some of his most famous works, including The Kiss and The Thinker. Almost as remarkable as Rodin's sculptures are the mansion and beautiful gardens that act as a backdrop to the museum. I recommend visiting in the spring, when the gardens are at their most lush and everything just feels so quintessentially Parisian.
The Pagoda
Like D'Orsay, The Pagoda is a bit of an anomaly. This much lesser known museum is an actual Chinese pagoda right smack in the middle of Paris. Once the home of a Chinese art collector, the Pagoda houses some of the finest examples of Asian artwork in the West and boasts impressive interiors indicative of 16th and 17th century Chinese architecture.
The Louvre
No list of museums in Paris is complete without mentioning The Louvre. The former royal palace is one of the largest museums in the world, so don't try to see it all in one day – it's impossible. Instead, plan what you want to see before you visit and stop by either early in the morning or late in the afternoon to avoid the major tourist crowds.
The collections at the Louvre spans everything from sculptures and artwork from the ancient world all the way through to the Renaissance and beyond. It's of course most famous for housing The Mona Lisa, which has a sizeable crowd surrounding it around the clock.

Having long text as an option for a radio buttonAsked by 2ezy on April 23, 2013 at 05:54 AM
Hi I have tried a radio button field with some long text as the options for them. The text does not seam to
drop to the next line in the form even when using shift/enter or just enter.
So my question is how do I get the longish text option next to each radio button to go onto the next line
and secondly how do I get that second line to start under the first lines postion.
The attached screenshot is what I am trying to achieve.
Thanks Mark
You can accomplish nextline option by adding
between the sentence.
Ok thanks. But how do I get the start of each new line to line up with the one above it as in my screenshot above.
Also inyour example the lable has now gone above the radio button options rather than staying on the left hand side.
That also happens with me even though I have selected lable align left.
If you are using the Options to add this in you can use the following html code in conjunction with the linebreak " <br> ". You can see a live demo of this form I've created for you by clicking here. If you don't like the look of it still though, we can try to figure out something else instead.
Html Space Code:
(use this in a row adding a few if necessary to adjust the spacing manually)

Never heard of Segal? You're not alone. Seven months ago, the financial journalist quit his job to focus solely on Heart. "I live in the Mission, and I saw a really big need in the community for a place that brought wine and food to a place that makes it accessible," Segal told us. "I've been waiting my whole life to start a wine bar and restaurant like this."It's been a relatively short wait. Segal is only 25, and he's never actually owned a food business. But he's convinced he has a vision with a whiff of originality, at least for San Francisco: a locus of little-appreciated wines and craft beers ― dry sherries and ciders, too ― in a seriously casual setting. "The Mission is more open-minded than other parts of the city, and a little younger," Segal said. "Customers will be open to trying wine that would be a much harder sell Downtown or in the Marina." Though he admires Terroir on Folsom, Segal wants Heart to be as informal as a beer pub, and with none of the egghead intimidation even neighborhood wine bars give off.
Segal is sourcing mostly French, Italian, and Spanish wines from importers with connections to small families and what he calls backwoods farmers. "It's somewhat of a Kermit Lynch approach, obscure varietals and grapes that most people don't have access to," Segal said. Bottles will range from $8 to the hundreds, served in glasses ranging from traditional stemware to tumblers and Mason jars. And Heart will be an art gallery too, with its own director, Karyn Hunt, and shows that rotate every two months.
Even the name ― Heart ― Segal wants to be, not some Hello Kitty emblem of cute, but taken in what he calls its most visceral sense: "the heart of the community, products made from the heart," he said. Segal cites the community spirit pumping through Mission small-business incubator La Cocina as yet another inspiration. Even Heart's logo depicts the anatomical organ, complete with veins and stumpy aorta.
"We want it all to have a strong sense of character," Segal said.

Pop quiz: What costs Taranaki people $19.9 million each year?
Answer: Food that goes to waste.
A frightening amount of money is thrown away in food waste. That $19.9 million would pay for two and a half years of school lunches for all Taranaki school pupils.
Food waste is a national problem - Kiwis waste $872 million a year on unused food. The average family throws away the equivalent of three full shopping trolleys of food annually. That's 122,547 tonnes - enough to feed about 262,917 people for a year.
No surprise then that a national campaign is starting today to address the issue.
The Love Food Hate Waste (LFHW) website was launched today, and initiatives are being run nationwide over the next couple of months.
In Taranaki, the top five foods being wasted are bread, apples, leftovers, bananas and oranges/mandarins and Taranaki waste minimisation officer Nadine Ord-Walton says the most significant proportion of food waste takes place in the home.
The LFHW campaign is being promoted in Taranaki by the Taranaki Regional Council along with the Stratford, New Plymouth and South Taranaki district councils with a range if initiatives and displays around the region.
Stratford library will host a display on the campaign and displays will also be on show in the Hawera, Inglewood, Bell Block, Waitara, Waverley, Opunake, Patea, Manaia, Kaponga and Eltham libraries.
A LFHW stall at the Seaside Market at Ngamotu Beach on June 5 from 10am to 3pm will feature Olena Williams, who runs cooking courses, giving a cooking demonstration from about 11am to 1pm using leftover foods.
There will be giveaways and food samples.
Taranaki King-Country MP Barbara Kuriger did a 10-day challenge keeping a diary documenting what food she threw away.
She extended the challenge to cover the entire month of May in the hope it would become a habit. She says she has realised the trick is in "only buying what I need".

mLearning Apps for Biology 30
IOS applications to enhance the learning of Science!
What is mLearning?
The collaboration, sharing, and consumption of knowledge inside and outside the classroom through any handheld portable device.
Biology 30 Curriculum
The units below are the core topics that are taught to Grade 12 students in Alberta. The applications I've chose will supplement my students learning of these four topics
1. Nervous & Endocrine Systems
2. Reproduction & Development
3. Cell Division, Genetics, & Molecular Biology
4. Population & Community Dynamics
The Apps to Enhance Student Learning
In my classroom, I would use this application during my students molecular biology unit. Using Apple devices, such as iPads or iPhones, students can follow along on their own devices while I go through the different organelles in each cell. By having the students use a mobile device, they can clearly see the detail of each organelle on their own personalized screen rather than projected onto the SmartBoard. This application is great for visual learners as it is colourful and visually pleasing. It gives learners a sense of whats happening within their own cells. This tool could also be used by students for a review tool; the information for each cell is a great study resource.
iCell provides interactive 3D views of the intracellular structures of animal, plant, and bacterial cells. There is a 360 degree view of each organelle as well as zoom feature which allows to see the organelles in a detailed manner. The "expertise" feature allows you to chose your knowledge level of beginner, intermediate, and advanced, and the reading material on the application changes based on your preference.
Brain Tutor 3D
Brain Tutor 3D is a free IOS application that focuses primarily on the human brain. It explores the brain structures using 3D MRI scans. Brain structures and functions are outlined in the application in extensive detail. The application also allows you to slice the brain to give you different angles of the hemispheres.
This application would be a great study tool for students during the Nervous System unit. The brain contains many structures that serve a variety of functions which can be hard for students to memorize. With an interactive app, students are more likely to be engaged in the material which aids memorization. I would hope students would use this application repeatedly to help them solidify their knowledge of the brain structures that I've mentioned in class.
Mitosis is an interactive learning experience that walks the student through the process of the cell division. Each phrase is explained and compared to both an animated video or screenshots of actual microscopic images. There is a "Read & Listen" audio option that explains mitosis as the video runs. There are interactive quizzes to test students knowledge, a full glossary of important terms, and provides other sources on mitosis.
This would be a key application in my Cell division unit as it is very detailed on that units subject matter. I would encourage students to purchase this app for its study capabilities. I could also use this to supplement a lab activity in which students look at slides under a microscope of cells undergoing the phases of cell division. The slides would be in a random order and using the application, they would match their slides to the microscopic screenshots in the app.
OnScreen DNA Model
This application provides a 3D virtual models and animations of DNA structure and chemical components. It ensures students know the basic information on the different molecules associated with DNA, along with the chemical bonding involved. It then displays different DNA processes like replication & denaturation and allows students to watch how DNA handles different laboratory conditions.
I would integrate this mLearning app into my molecular biology unit. Some students find DNA a hard idea to conceptualize, especially if they don't know the basic structural components. This app not only teaches students about the basic building blocks, but it also applies the basics to the overall structure of the DNA. This app is great for visual learners who need to SEE the structure to understand the functionality. An app like this could be used as a pre-activity for students to start thinking about the concept of DNA or as a study tool for students struggling with the concept.
Powers of Minus Ten
Cells & Genetics
Through a powerful zooming feature, students can explore the cells and molecules in different body parts. This application is a general introduction to cells and molecular processes. Cell division, DNA replication, translation, and cell parts are among the topics focused upon in this application.
I would use this application as a refresher for my cell & molecular biology unit. Students could use this to remind themselves of the basics of cells and different molecular processes they would have learnt in earlier science classes. The instructional mini games included make it enjoyable for learners so they keep engaged. This is another great choice for visual learners because it shows how all the different cells and molecular processes in the body are all interconnected.

5 - 6 Final
Keesel's hat trick helps Leafs hold off SenatorsOct 9, 2011 - 2:29 AM
Joffrey Lupul scored and had two assists for Toronto, which tallied the game's first four goals and held a 5-1 lead shortly into the third period. But three consecutive Senators scores made it a tight game.
Kessel provided some breathing room with 2:19 to play -- a necessary score, given Ottawa rookie Stephane Da Costa recorded his first career goal only 25 seconds later.
But Toronto held on in the wild finish to stay unbeaten. The Leafs opened their season Thursday with a 2-0 victory against Montreal.
James Reimer made 32 saves in that shutout win and was strong through two periods Saturday, stopping all 16 shots he faced. But he was peppered with 16 shots in the third and let in all five goals.
Craig Anderson, Ottawa's starting goaltender, gave up four goals on 24 shots through two periods. Alex Auld allowed two goals in the third period as the Senators' comeback effort fell short, dropping them to 0-2-0.
They lost Friday at Detroit, 5-3, to start their 2011-12 season. The Senators scored all three of their goals in the third period, and put together another late rush Saturday.
Daniel Alfredsson got it started with a shorthanded goal at the 11:04 point of the period.
Several minutes later, a number of penalties on Toronto gave Ottawa a 5-on-3 chance, and Jason Spezza took advantage with 4:24 to play.
The Senators still had a power play after that score, and Alfredsson needed only eight seconds to pull them within one.
However, Kessel stopped Ottawa's scoring string with his third goal of the contest.
It gave Toronto a seemingly comfortable 6-4 edge with only a few minutes to play, but Da Costa quickly made it a one-goal game again. Erik Karlsson faked a shot from the right point and instead sent a cross-ice pass to Da Costa by the left circle, and Da Costa wasted little time in putting the puck past Reimer.
The Senators emptied their net in a last-ditch attempt to net the equalizer, but Reimer didn't allow it as the Leafs held on.
Toronto dominated the first 40 minutes, getting on the board with Mikhail Grabovski's power-play one-timer with 7:02 left in the opening frame. Kessel's wrister from the slot made it 2-0 late in the period.
The Leafs capitalized on another power play nearly eight minutes into the second period, when Lupul re-directed John-Michael Liles' blast from the center point.
Kessel's second tally of the contest pushed the lead to four with 1:11 to go. He carried the puck from the left boards through the circle and stick-handled the puck briefly before burying it by the left post.
Colin Greening put Ottawa on the board 1:42 into the third with a wrister during a Senators rush. But Toronto's Colton Orr responded a little more than a minute later with a snap shot.
Game Notes
Kessel added an assist and matched a career high in points for a game. He recorded his third career hat trick and first with Toronto. Kessel notched hat tricks for Boston on October 12, 2007 and April 12, 2009, and joined the Leafs for the 2009-10 season...Karlsson finished with three assists.

Dundon's Kitchen: A real sweet treat for her on the special day
This week it's all about Macarons, those delightful bite-sizes meringue biscuits that are sandwiched together with a filling.
What's so unique about these is the lovely, crunchy exterior that leads into a soft, chewy centre, which is then filled with ganache, caramel, butter creams, jam or flavoured creams. I've added a hint of red powder food colouring for this pink hue, making them the perfect dessert for Mother's Day.
When making macarons, it's follow the recipe closely. I'm afraid the egg whites do need to be weighed for perfect results. It's also important that the sugar syrups reaches the softball stage (114˚-116˚C).
If you're not used to handling a piping bag, place it in a tall glass before adding the batter. A piping tip/nib is not required, but if you want to use, use a half-inch one. More often than not, a little tip will be on the top of the piped macaron, so I tap the tray against the work surface to flatten the tip to get a smoother surface.
Macarons can be stored in the fridge for up to one week in an airtight container. Take them out of the fridge 30 minmutes before serving.
Cracking Raspberry Macarons
Makes approx 8 large or 20 regular macarons
- 150g ground almonds
- 150g icing sugar
- 110g egg white (55g +55g)
- 1tsp red powder food colouring
- 170g caster sugar (150g +20g)
- 50g water
- 90g mascarpone
- 100ml cream
- 20g icing sugar
- 80g lemon curd
- ½ vanilla pod
- 200g raspberries
- a few tip of fresh mint leaves
- golden coated sugar to decorate (optional)
- Line a baking tray with greaseproof paper. Preheat oven to 140°C/275°F. Sieve the ground almonds and icing sugar into a large bowl. Add 55g of egg white and the food colouring. Stir.
- In a separate bowl, prepare the meringue. In a pan, over a medium heat, heat the caster sugar (150g) and water to a syrup until it reaches the softball stage (114-116°C).
- In a second bowl, whisk together the remaining egg white and 20g of caster sugar until light and frothy. In a steady stream, add the hot syrup. Quickly beat until it becomes silky and cools.
- Fold the meringue into the. Work the paste until it is soft enough so that it falls back into a smooth shape when stirred.
- Spoon the paste into a piping bag fitted with a nozzle and pipe in a swirl fashion to get 8cm circles on the baking sheet.
- Bake for 16 to 18 minutes. Open the oven door slightly every four minutes to allow steam to escape. This will keep the exterior from cracking so the finish is smooth. Cool before removing from the baking sheet.
- To prepare the mascarpone cream, in a bowl, whip the mascarpone, cream, icing sugar, lemon curd and vanilla seeds until stiffen and fill a piping bag.
- To build the macaron, pipe some mascarpone mousse at the base of a plate and add a few rapberries. Top with a large macaron and decorate further with some extra mascarpone, raspeberries, mint leaves and golden coated sugar.
- Leave to set in the fridge for one to four hours for the texture of the macaron to enhance, then serve.
Berries, Almond and Macaron Tart (Serves 4 - 6)
- 200g sweet pastry
- 200g blackcurrant jam
- 20 macarons (see recipe on the opposite page for cracking raspberry macaron)
- 200 strawberries, to serve
- 50g blueberries
- 60g butter, softer
- 60g icing sugar
- 75g ground almond
- 1tbsp cornflour
- 2 eggs
- 70g mascarpone
- 140ml cream
- 20g icing sugar
- ½ vanilla pod
- A drop orange extract
- First, using a rolling pin, roll out the pastry on a lightly-floured surface. Prepare two 10cm-diameter tart tins or one 20cm-diameter tin by lightly greasing and dusting with flour the edges.
- Lay the pastry and fit around. Spread a layer of blackcurrant jam onto the pastry then place in the fridge to set for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 160˚C/325˚F/Gas Mark 3.
- Prepare the almond mixture. Place the butter, sugar, almonds, cornflour and eggs into a bowl and whisk until the mixture is smooth. Pour the mixture over the prepared pastry and bake in the oven for 30 to 40 minutes, until golden brown on top.
- Meanwhile, prepare the mascarpone cream. In a bowl, whip the mascarpone, cream, icing sugar, vanilla seeds and orange extract. Whip until stiffen and fill up in a piping bag.
- When the tarts are baked, remove and leave to cool for one hou. Then brush the top with a thin layer of the jam and alternate by piping walnut-sized swirls of mascarpone cream and macarons.
- Pipe some more mascarpone cream in the centre and decorate with a few berries.

The govt. has already given the permission to divest stakes in companies like power finance corporation (PFC), Hindustan Copper Ltd. (HCL), ONGC and SAIL. The follow-on public offer of these companies is expected to fetch close to Rs. 15,000 crore. Govt. divested 5% stake in PFC to garner Rs. 1,162 crore in May 2011. The offer comprised issue of about 172,165,005 fresh equity shares and sale of around 57,388,335 shares by the government, which has 89 per cent stake in the company.
Indian govt. has already listed PSUs like RINL, MMTC and NBCC for stake sale during the current fiscal. The disinvestment target for the current fiscal is close to Rs. 40,000 crore.
Indian govt. has collected close to Rs. 100,000 crore from the disinvestment program when it is launched in 1991-92. But govt. has decided to retain the management with 51% holding in these PSUs. There is also plan to list Central Public Sector Enterprises (CPSEs) to get listed in the equity market.

Colombo: Sri Lanka's cricketers on Friday expressed confidence that a sponsorship row will be resolved with 'give and take' on both sides, allowing next month's Champions Trophy to go ahead. "We do not see any real danger for the tournament," said spokesman for the Sri Lankan players, Graeme Labrooy. "The game must go on and we feel there will be give and take on both sides." The International Cricket Council (ICC) wants cricketers to sign contracts stating that players cannot have endorsement deals in conflict with official ICC sponsors a month before and after an ICC tournament. The ICC has already signed up a number of official sponsors for the Trophy, effectively a mini World Cup, starting here from September 12. But many leading players have agreements with rival firms. Some have not yet signed the controversial terms. The Cricket Players' Association of Sri Lanka (CPASL) said about a dozen players in the national pool had their own product endorsement contracts, but it hoped there would be no conflict of interest with the sponsors of the tournament. Labrooy said the Sri Lankan team currently in Morocco had not signed the terms, but the players were being provided legal advice to ensure that there was no conflict of interest. "We feel that there should be greater dialogue between the players and the ICC in deciding their course of action for the next three to four years," Labrooy said. "That way, we should be able to avoid this type of situation." He said Sri Lankan players were keen to ensure that the sponsorship row did not affect the game and that the big names in cricket would be able to attend next month's tournament. Some key Indian cricketers, including mega star Sachin Tendulkar, have been hesitant to sign the terms as they have agreements with companies that are in competition with ICC sponsors. Australian, Indian and Sri Lankan cricketers are among those who are yet to sign the contracts.

Product 72/73
White Rose Bergamot is young and contemporary, blended with white damask roses and Italian bergamot to create a clean, cheerful and breathtakingly feminine fragrance. A complicated, but not overtly floral bouquet that entwines the subtlety and beauty of white roses with the light citron note of beramot, delicate violets, muguet, and water hyacinths. Almost imperceptible hints of orris, and a mossy musk add warmth and depth. A fresh floral fragrance, full of vibrancy and fun. This fragrance oil cures up with the bergamot beautifully complimenting the white rose! No accelleration noted with my formulas in CP soap, does not discolor. This fragrance version was developed by Kelly Bloom when she owned Southern Soapers.

Author | Rishi Vora | Saturday, Aug 04,2007 9:31 AM
Day two of the third Annual Corporate Communications meet saw Anurag Batra, Managing Director and Editor-in-Chief, exchange4media.com, discussing the new media landscape and reputation management in the era of Web 2.0. Batra also talked about the usage of Internet, its tools, and the impact they have on several businesses.
Talking about the strength of this new medium, Batra explained that with the advent of blogs and social networking sites, marketing on this new space was dead. "If the customer feels that she is being marketed, then she will never come back to you," he said. He further explained that blogs and social network sites were popular simply because there weren't sales pitches anymore.
"There is nothing on this medium that you can't do. Companies are now looking at video resumes, while users can upload their audio-visual content on websites like YouTube," he said, while explaining the scope of Internet and Web 2.0. He further said that Web 2.0 and the user-generated content on websites had led to the democratisation of content where the users have become editors.
Explaining the threats of the medium, Batra recalled an incident when a video of a Dell computer catching fire was uploaded on a website, and how the company used the same medium to salvage the situation. Commenting further on the probable threat, he said, "Internet has become the biggest influence on the purchase decisions of consumers. One single blog or a video can ruin the image of a company, its products and its credibility in the market."
Batra also gave some important facts on the usage of Internet in India. "Thirty million users are currently ruling the space, which shows that the Internet is still a baby in India," he said. He went on to provide statistics like, the usage rate was growing by 28 per cent every year, and that 37 per cent of the usage came from 10 cities. About the social networking sites, he cited that 14 per cent of all Indian Internet users were on Orkut, while Facebook was also very popular.
Giving his views on the issue of corporate blogging, Batra said that there were not many CEOs in the country who blogged regularly, but that the time was changing and that there would be a lot of business and corporate blogs in the near future. Talking on the corporate communication front, he advised not to shoot PR releases on most occasions, but make personal conversations on one-on-one basis.
Concluding his presentation, Batra gave important tips for entrepreneurs and business heads from the online world on how to make their business more profitable. "Think as blogs at a global level and have it in multiple languages," he said, and further explained the importance of creating links with co-websites and other popular blogs.

I was looking for a crew with tons of experience who were capable of ensuring safety, yet, were inventive and unafraid to push the limits, adding to original shot ideas and being creative. Simply put, the Drone Dudes had the best reel.

And, as for the strictures imposed on women during menstruation, I think they were yet another set of rules, invented by us blokes to establish more dominance.
Try living in Afghanistan or Iraq and see what it looks like for women over there! I can think of few societies in which the men work harder or longer hours (including running the home) than women - whether you're talking hunter-gatherers or modern day Britain.You mention the Mother in law as having power - a little and very localised, possibly. That was only a way of getting more out of the subserviant women of the household.
If you choose to view Women's condition from the standpoint of the men who are 'justifying' it then you will see it from that perspective.
I think you are distancing yourself from the main issue of male dominance and just quoting a potted social history. Historians are well known for avoiding making judgements in case they 'cloud the issue'.
And 'issues' have a place.Imagine waking up in Afghanistan tomorrow morning. Would you rather wake up as a man or as a woman?That's my point.And, if you were a woman, tomorrow, you probably wouldn't be allowed to post a reply.
you did not ask there what the women's reason for creating the rules might be,
It is rather a rosy view if you believe that the average Afghan man has any substantial power.
But the real problem in Afghanistan is the struggle between what is seen as foreign influence, . . . an artificial concept, defined by what it is against rather than what it is for) versus outside influence.
And would be driven round the bend by one who couldn't keep up with my thought processes
Quoteyou did not ask there what the women's reason for creating the rules might be,That presupposes that everyone, to whom rules apply, has a say in making the rules. There are many instances to the contrary.
QuoteIt is rather a rosy view if you believe that the average Afghan man has any substantial power.Everything is relative. He can certainly beat his wife as much as he wants!
QuoteBut the real problem in Afghanistan is the struggle between what is seen as foreign influence, . . . an artificial concept, defined by what it is against rather than what it is for) versus outside influence.Are you implying that everything would be hunky dory for women in Afghanistan if it weren't for the fact they have been at war for a long time?
There really aren't any societies that have not been affected by war, in any case.
I don't think it is war that makes the difference; I think it is simple economics. and the ability of one group of people to have influence over another group.
Evolution has ensured that we have mechanisms to inhibit us from killing each other over minor issues but it has not stopped dominant humans from dominating other humans. You could say that it is the reason we have been so 'successful'. But, if you want to think of us as being, in any way, superior and as having something special abut us, then there are other issues to consider. Just because things have been that way for a long time, it doesn't mean that they are right or fair. Groups are very reluctant to give up any power that they have already established and will use all their efforts to maintain it - not least by reasoned arguments and laws. The easiest way to avoid doing anything about the situation of women is to argue that it is, in fact, a good situation and does not need changing. The same could be said about the 'working classes', slaves or third world factory workers. Convincing oneself that there is no problem is easy, when it is in one's interest to keep the status quo.
I think there is little question that men in many (most?) traditional societies have markedly more power than is necessarily good for anyone, but
1. On the question of strictures on women during menstruation. You may or may not have noticed, but it's an inherently pretty messy business. Frankly, that women did (and do) manage without the sanitary products now available strikes me as pretty impressive. I mean, I wouldn't *want* to go out and do stuff during my period if they weren't available to me. 2. That being the case, it would be quite difficult to sustain much of a role in public life when for a 4-7 day period each month you were shackled to mess, and washing cloths, and trying not to get too much blood on the furniture (and the idea of all women having regular, predicatable periods is a total myth.. so it would be difficult for many to ensure things are scheduled round it).
The whole thing is about spheres of influence. Women, often older women, may have dominance in the home (not sure how this applies in different cultures), especially where several generations live together, but if men have control over who leaves the home and when then they have a much more important form of power. For one thing, it leaves women under the matriarch in a position of total subservience.
The idea that this provides a significant amount of protection for women in general is laughable.
Whilst for those who have a family to protect them it may be OK, and whilst it may not be ideal they won't starve, for those who end up alone despite this the outlook is extraordinarily grim, because they will be total outcasts, beyond even the men who have nowhere to go (and indeed, to take a non-Afghan example, there was until not long enough ago an expectation that widows in some cultures throw themselves on their husbands' funeral pyres).
All legislation which differentiates between men and women is in my view insidious, the only binary difference between the sexes is the difference in roles in child bearing (note I say bearing not rearing). Beyond that, men are on average stronger, women are on average possesed of smaller hands and thus better at fiddly production line type tasks. More women may wish to stay home with the kids for a while, but some men who would also like to do so are currently, even in Britain, given odd looks outside the school gates if they are the principle carer.. it's certainly assumed that mum is not on the scene.If men hold the keys to education, to earning, to independence, then however it came about it's wrong, bad, and should be changed as fast as possible wherever possible. I don't acknowledge cultural tradition as an argument on this one. But on the other hand, trying to force the issue too fast will tend to lead to a backlash by those who currently have the power and are thus in a position of strength. Which ain't gonna help anyone.
Where have I made any argument for keeping the status quo, about anything?
how we should seek to solve the problems of tomorrow.
Reading your past comments, I seem to read that women's fortunes, both past and present, have not been all that bad. Indeed, your first comment involves the word 'myth'.
QuoteWhere have I made any argument for keeping the status quo, about anything?That seems, precisely what you have been doing; justifications and explanations with no comments as to the morality of the situation. A lot of the problems suffered by women are explicable in terms of social history - but are they excusable, from a modern standpoint? Is this not a forum to discuss morals?
Quotehow we should seek to solve the problems of tomorrow.OK, let's do just that.But the fate of women will still be a problem unless the situation is sorted out by our trying to solve the problems of today. We could start with the dowry problem, female infanticide and the obscene practice of 'honour killings'. Then there is 'rape as a form of ethnic cleansing'. . . .You might, at least, feel able to condemn such things rather than to explain them in terms of their history.
So is there any point in trying to change things?
don't judge others badly merely because they are not in your shoes, nor you in theirs
How about certain "religious" organisations where the man can have multiple wives, who benefits from this? The same religion, when the man is excommunicated his wives are either shared out amongst the other men or given to one single man, who benefits from that situation?
Quotedon't judge others badly merely because they are not in your shoes, nor you in theirsI don't have to be in the shoes of a woman, who has been set on fire by a husband because she has transgressed in some way, to know that the practice is just not right. Battered husbands is only a significant occurrence in disfunctional sectors of our own society, remember. Like male rape - it is nothing like as common as the other way round. and cannot be used as a counter argument. Male rape is 99.99% male-on-male, in any case.But, really, A-S, you are just kidding us.You really do have some empathy with the oppressed,You don't really excuse abuse on the grounds of tradition.Do you?
But that would imply that historic societies were 'broken' societies - and while all societies (including our own) are imperfect, it would not make sense to regard them as 'broken'.
oops, i did mean to add that some of the "extra" wives are between the ages of 11 and 17. Simply put it does not matter if the "wife" is a child. This does still happen, and is happening right now in places in the US.
No, don't think I said that. I think what I said was that it wasn't ideal. What I meant to imply was that, as with so many things, technology has now moved on and we ought to be able to do better.
I take your point about the difference between intention and outcome, but I would say that if we're going to compare systems at all it has to be the outcomes and not the intentions (in whatever woolly way we define intentions... whose intentions? those of the writers of the rules? those of the people implimenting the rules?)
And about independence vs responsibility... don't see how you can have one without the other...
The whole thing is about spheres of influence. Women, often older women, may have dominance in the home (not sure how this applies in different cultures), especially where several generations live together, but if men have control over who leaves the home and when then they have a much more important form of power.
But, really, A-S, you are just kidding us.You really do have some empathy with the oppressed,You don't really excuse abuse on the grounds of tradition.Do you?
it is in my view unjust to label huge swathes of them as evil oppressors
Quoteit is in my view unjust to label huge swathes of them as evil oppressorsIt may be taking 'justness' a bit far if one doesn't condemn what is clearly a cruel action on the grounds that it 'may' involve a judgement of the person carrying out the action. Whoever is setting fire to a woman, the experience of the woman, surely, deserves at least some sympathy. The man may be following accepted tradition but that takes none of the woman's pain away. There must be a stage where the analytical approach can be set aside and an emotional response is quite appropriate.Is it possible to visualise the above scenario without one's emotions telling you that is is just plain WRONG? I should have thought that it would not be too much to admit to.
setting light to people always has been, and remains, a tool of war
Quotesetting light to people always has been, and remains, a tool of warWhat has that got to do with the woman - the individual, in a bad situation? And how does your statement justify anything? How can you condone a culture where this is accepted as just? Do you have no absolutes in your life? Try imagining it was happening to you. Would you be quite as uninvolved? Would you excuse the act on the grounds that you couldn't really condemn your torturer as being a bad person? I don't think so.I can't continue this. Every time I introduce an idea based on personal suffering , you skate around the subject with abstract ideas and intellectual fencing.My point is that all this stuff should be taken very personally and, where possible, openly condemned - not just discussed like how many angels there are on a pinhead.When politicians and rulers can divorce themselves from what they are doing, they order many unspeakable things. Unspeakable in an absolutte sense - not just relatively unfortunate or not in the best interests of someone, they are actually bad things. Sometimes the unspeakable act represents the lesser of two evils but, in many social situations, the acts carried out against oppressed sections of society have no justification at all. A disinterested attitude is not justified, either. I cannot see how you can reduce every moral statement or question to simple logic. Isn't humanity part of your vocabulary?We will have to stick to dry, inanimate subjects like Physics - about which you have some very respectable views, A-S.

SmugMug vs. WordPress – Which is Better? A while ago I wrote a long blog about my full digital workflow – we thought it was time to break things down a little and just look at the online sections, which currently include a blend of WordPress (the self install .org version) & a business account of SmugMug. When you're looking for a photography website, two options always make the top of the list. SmugMug and WordPress. So which one is better for a fellow photography and why? Below I go over the benefits and downsides to each so you can help to determine which is right for you, your business and current needs. A little note about my WordPress account. Currently I am using the Go-Daddy WordPress hosting service. It works very well – but does cost money + having my own domain name costs money. This means that I can use the Self-Install version of WordPress over the WordPress 'hosted' version that can be found at WordPress.com. Both are pretty straight forward to use & Go Daddy look after the install, but as I said – it costs more money, but you have more flexibility. Benefits: WordPress is an amazing content […]Read On

St. Malachy's Prophecy - The Last 10 Popes
Born in 1094 A.D. at Armagh, Ireland, Saint Malachy is also known as: Maolmhaodhog ua Morgair; Maol Maedoc; and Malachy O'Morgair...
Born in 1094 A.D. at Armagh, Ireland, Saint Malachy is also known as: Maolmhaodhog ua Morgair; Maol Maedoc; and Malachy O'Morgair. He died as he himself predicted, on November 2, 1148 at Clairvaux, France. Malachy was canonized the first Irish Saint in the Catholic Church by Pope Clement III in 1190 A.D.
Saint Malachy was a 12th century Irish monk, who, while on a visit to Rome had a vision of all the popes who would ever reign. Malachy "saw"-and committed to paper- a series of Latin phrases describing the popes to come. He catalogued each one with an epigrammatic verse, such as 'the tears of the sun'. Malachy made the prophecy in 1139. Reportedly it was entrusted to Pope Innocent II in 1140. But for some reason it was "lost" in the Vatican for 400 years, only to be "discovered" in 1595 A.D. Malachy s predictions reputedly were made in 1139 while he was on a pilgrimage to the Vatican, where he was appointed papal legate for Ireland. On his last trek to the holy see in Rome, in 1148, Malachy accurately predicted the place and time of his own death: Clairvaux, France, on All Souls Day, November 2, of that same year.
The Malachy Prophecies were first published in 1595, by a Benedictine monk & historian named Arnold de Wyon, who found them 5 years earlier in the Vatican archives. Arnold recorded them in his book, entitled: 'Lignum Vitæ'

text: VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 23, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- New Age Farm Inc. (CSE:NF) (OTC:NWGFF) (FSE:ONF) ( www.newagefarminc.com) ("New Age Farm" or the "Company"), is pleased to report the completion of its 5,600 square foot state-of the art greenhouse cannabis production facility at its Oroville, Washington Green Campus which is capable of growing, trimming, curing and storing product. New Age Farm's on-site master growers (the "Master Growers") advise that production at the newly completed facility is expected to begin November 30, 2016 for New Age Farm's I-502 Tier 3 licensed tenant-grower. The Tier 3 license allows the tenant-grower to produce and process marijuana, producing up to 30,000 square feet of plant canopy in the facility compound. The Master Growers estimate that the initial harvest date will be approximately 90 days from the start of seed planting. New Age Farm's Master Growers have over 52 years combined experience in the cannabis industry, with a proven track record for quality and consistency in the production of cannabis under commercial growing conditions. The Master Growers are expert in the specific needs for light, nutrition and feeding of cannabis plants, and understand and establish the ideal growing conditions, methods and media to produce a successful crop. As a result of the Master Growers' carefully designed planting and harvesting rotation program, tenant-growers can expect to harvest a continuous crop every 30 days after the initial 90 day planting. New Age Farm's newly completed expansion, when at full capacity, will allow the facility to significantly increase the tenant-growers' cannabis production capabilities, and, is designed to increase total production capacity to approximately 1,600 pounds of flower per month. At current estimated average sale prices of marijuana in Washington of US$1,250 per pound, this volume of production would support approximately $24 million in flower sales per year.

This guy, who I've known for almost a year asked me to go to the movies with him. We had already gone once together but it was with a group. I know some are thinking, 'if it's just the two of you then it's a date' I just don't know though, it's so hard to tell the difference sometimes.

I suppose you can ask him. What are you hoping for?11|00|0
A date but if it's not one, I'm cool for just hanging out with him
Well there are also things you can do during the movie to indicate that you are interested if you don't want to ask. For example, you can hold his hand or rest your head on his shoulder and I think most guys would get the message that you were interested in him.

Before 1960 the Western Isle had been mostly independent nations, however in the late 1690's it became apparent that Scotland was to create an alliance with France and could possibly attack England. The thoughts for a union were pushed aside when Scotland colonised Scottish Guiana (Caledonia) in 1698. Following the death of George II a brief coup d'etat was attempted on the government which ultimately failed. However the Isle of Man was able to break away and Wales gained more autonomy.
It was first brought together after the First World War as a way for the countries to promote economic and social prosperity following the Western Obliteration Event, which left 6% of the population of the Western Isle and Western Plains dead. The destruction of many major ports from tsunamis meant most trade was only maintained between the Western Isle Countries and countries nearby, due to the close proximity between them. Tariffs infringed trade during the desperate time and a meeting of the leaders of each country in 1897 took place at Birmingham, England. Talks continued for 5 days from 7th September to 12th September and led to three major agreements:
- The Tariff Reduction Agreement which agreed that all signing members would lower trade tariffs by 75% within 2 years, allowing trade between countries to flow more easily and repairs to be swift.
- The Western Common Currency Agreement which agreed that all signing members would convert to a newly introduced Western Pound Stirling and drop local currencies by 1907 as to promote economic ties between members.
However, the talks were briefly interrupted after arguments broke out between the Greater Powers and the Allies on the second day of talks due to the diverse ideologies of all the members however they were resolved after Prime Minster of England and Prime Minister of Scotland agreed to put their differences aside and signed the treaty. The Kingdoms of Brittany and Ireland had been excluded from this treaty, called the Sustaining Prosperity Agreement.
It was not accepted lightly by the public though and following the decision unrest ensued across all member countries as the huge public negativity after the war manifested into the Christmas Riots of 1897. After the end of the riots in late January 1898 most hatred subsidised but continued on through the anti-Birmingham Agreement groups 'Freedom!' (welsh:Rhyddid!) and Stop this (scots gaelic:Stad seo).
Due to colonies attempting to break away, any members declined involvement in the Second World War
Following the Third World War and the loss of most member countries colonies, members' leaders met to decide the future of their countries which were on a brink of financial collapse. On 5th July 1946 talks began, ending on the 14th with the Unification Act. The Kingdoms of Brittany and Ireland were included this time
The Unification Act was a decision to unify all members into one sovereign state, with all major control being
within the Cardinal Government in Douglas. This was to fluently allow the countries to coordinate repairs and
reconstruction while votes from the public were to be held by the latest of October that year on the matter. Brittany, Wessex, Ireland, and Wales all had overwhelming support from their votes due to their want to join the more financially capable countries, while England, Scotland and the Kingdom of Man had barely a majority leading to major public opposition against the unification when it occurred officially on 20th November 1946, with the Cardinal Government now allowed to pass serious laws across all member states. Members still had their own governments but had obey Cardinal Laws. Saikyō still maintained it city state government along with Londinium.
A membership payment was introduced in 1950 to pay for the legislative body and was later used to fund programs like the Trident nuclear programme and later the Western Isle Space Agency (WISA) which is a key helper in the International Space Station and other missions in close partnership with the Japan Aerospace eXploration Agency (JAXA).
The 7KU is the strongest economy in the European Union and the fifth strongest worldwide. With a PPP-adjusted GDP of £4.1 trillion it is behind Japan, India, the USA and China. It was one of the founding members of the European Union and holds a permanent seat in the big 5 of the UN council.
During the 1950's the governments of Brittany, Normandy and Ireland voted in communist parties as the majority in their parliaments which resulted in heavy turmoil in the 7KU for the next 50 years until the fall of the communist regime in Europe. Multiple terror attacks took place in every single member state with the worst being the Boxing Day Bomb of 1987 which caused the deaths of 1341 people which was the worst terror attack prior to the 11th of September 2003 attacks in the United States.
The 7KU has been dominantly governed by right wing government since its inception despite many left wing parties in every member state taking power at least once. This has been seen as unfair by most left wing supporters but accusations of rigging has been continuously been disproved.
In 2000 serious work started on the Brighter Future Project with the majority of sustainable projects being completed by 2014 accumulating 231.7TWh in 2015 making over one-fourth of all 7KU power produced from sustainable sources. It led to the foreclosure of 30% of fossil fuel power stations. However 416.3TWh are still produced from fossil fuels and 198.8TWh produced by nuclear sources. This BF project has always seemed to be a stretch as many believed the money would be better suited invested in other areas like the economy or the NHS which has been under higher pressure recently.
The 2010 global finacial crisis crippled the UK economy causing the cardinal government to introduce austerity measures to attack the substantial public deficits which resulted.
The total area of the 7KU is approximately 376,750 square kilometers (145,464 sq mi). The country occupies the entirety of the Western Isle and part of the Western Plains along with smaller surrounding islands. It borders the North Atlantic Ocean and the North Sea, while the Britannic Sea separates mainland Europe from the Western isle.
