Demystifying Nuclear Power Through Education
Our mission is to educate the public about nuclear power and other energy issues.
Fairewinds Energy Education is an easy to use educational hub for fact-based, undistorted nuclear energy information. Fairewinds' website features podcasts and videos, in which we collaborate with experts in wide ranging fields to discuss nuclear energy issues.
Audience members employed by Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E, utility owner of Diablo Canyon) attempt to denounce the inconvenient truths of Arnie's speech at California Polytechnic State University during the presentation's follow-up Q&A. The PG&E trolls' irrelevant and rude query comes back to haunt them as audience members come to the defense of Fairewinds' truth-speak.
Gendai Business Online's top ranked article is an exclusive interview with Fairewinds Chief Engineer Arnie Gundersen titled, American nuclear expert warns: "There is a possibility that now in Fukushima recontamination is occurring." With more than 10,000 likes on Facebook, this Japanese article delves into the truth about nuclear contamination from Fukushima Daiichi as uncovered by Arnie Gundersen during his most recent trip to Japan. Fairewinds, with the help of Japanese translators, provides you with an English translation here.

North Dakota State stuns Jayhawks, 6-3
C'mon guys, cheer up. In three weeks New Mexico State comes to town and the Jayhawks get another chance to put away a cupcake. ;-)
Seriously, though, Southern Miss, Baylor, and Iowa State are all winnable games (theoretically). If Gill's worth his sal(ary)t, he'll light a fire under the offense (defense did well enough) and the Jayhawks can get back to respectability, if not a bowl game.
I'm predicting 4-8. It *is* going to be a rebuilding year, it's a program in transition. Don't forget, Mangino's first year in 2002 was pretty bad as well (2-10, if I recall correctly?).

Big 12 Conference lives on
"Sources told me late Sunday night that the Big 12 appears closer to a agreement to move forward with the 10 members that remain and, if it in fact did, Oklahoma would shift to the North division, therein opening up the possibility of OU and Texas meeting each year in the conference's football championship."
I had the same reaction, Lawkan. With 10 teams, Oklahoma doesn't move to the North because there IS no North any longer. The NCAA rule still applies: need 12 teams for a championship game.
But given the fact that about half the time the championship game has knocked the Big 12 contender OUT of the national title game? Good riddance.
Oh, and work out a trade with the Big Ten for its name. Otherwise I'm going to laugh everytime I hear the names "Big Ten" or "Big Twelve" from this point forward... X-D

Tough cookies, Congress (and KU). You lie in the BCS bed, you get, uh, *used* (to put it euphemistically) by the big BCS boys.
@edjayhawk and whats_going_on: you really think that it'll stop now? I predict that Nebraska bolting means the "Texas four" bolting (and which also probably means Missouri also leaves for the Big... uh... 13).
As for Kansas? Better hope for a pity invite from the MWC, or it looks like C-USA all the way! But look on the bright side; we might actually beat Memphis, Tulsa, Southern Miss, and UTEP every year... hey wait, aren't we already scheduling them in non-conference? :-p
The Big 8 always made more sense than the Big 12. The Big 12 is getting what's been coming to it for more than a decade (and the Big East... another "newbie" football-based conference... is about to get the same thing).

Lawrence man says he's victim of a hate crime after assault on Mass. Street last Friday
No, greed is hate of oneself because one doesn't have as much as others have. That said, most crimes indicate a disregard for one's fellow human beings.
Perhaps the classic "stealing a loaf of bread because you're hungry" (a la Jean Valjean) would qualify as a crime without hate; perhaps jaywalking, or speeding, or public intoxication also qualify.
But assaulting a person after they admit to being gay, prefaced with the comment "we don't put up with that [expletive]"? That's a hate crime.
Not all crimes are hate crimes, gr. Unless you have a very warped definition of "hate"...

With the NBA and NHL drafts recently completed, the baseball draft just three weeks in the past and the Patriots set to head to training camp next month with a host of key draft picks on defense, now seems as good a time as any to play a little game:
If you were going grocery shopping and wanted someone to push the cart, who among Boston's four general managers would you chose for the job? You can only have one. Who is the best at picking them.
It's a tough call, because for the time ever (I think) all four GMs are worthy of discussion. And at least three -- Bill Belichick, Theo Epstein and Danny Ainge -- are among the very best at what they do. As hard as it is to chose one over the other, we'll give it a shot below.
Keep in mind, this ranking only involves drafting ability. We're not addressing trades, salary cap management or other aspects of the job. This is purely about walking into a high school gym or a college athletic facility and judging who can play and who can't.
Here's how I'd currently rank them:
1. Ainge
Surprised? Don't blame you. He's got one ring with the Celtics while Bill Belichick has three and Theo Epstein has two. Ainge wins this battle despite a roomier trophy case, primarily because I think it's harder to build a champion in the NBA than it is in any other league. And the way he did it is nearly impossible.
Consider this: Since 1980, a grand total of seven NBA franchises have won the championship. Think of that. Seven teams in nearly 30 years. And virtually all were led by singular talents. If you had Larry, Magic, Isiah, Michael, Hakeem, Duncan, Shaq, D Wade or Kobe, you won. If you didn't, you didn't. It's the nature of the beast in the NBA -- the best players almost always win, and there are only a handful of them to go around. And the salary cap has only made it tougher. One bad deal can kill you for years. Drafting high every year means nothing. If you're a bad team in cold-weather city, star players won't come to you. Assembling a collection of good-but-not-great talent that plays well together isn't nearly enough. The 2001 Patriots don't happen in the NBA. For the most part, you have to be fortunate enough to be picking high in the lottery the year a franchise player is available in the draft. That's how most NBA champions other than the Lakers have been built.
What Ainge has done is rare. Yes, the Celts bottomed-out with 24 wins the year before they won the championship -- but this team was not built with lottery magic. It was built through excellent draft picks in the teens and lower over a period of five years, picks that yielded players who are either contributing to the current mix or were dealt for the stars who really made it happen.
Al Jefferson (picked at No. 15), Ryan Gomes (No. 50) and Gerald Green (No. 18)20helped get you Kevin Garnett. Delonte West (No. 24) helped get you Ray Allen. Rajon Rondo (No. 21, as part of a draft day deal with Phoenix), Kendrick Perkins (No. 27, as part of a draft day trade with Memphis), Glen Davis (No. 35, as part of the Allen trade) and Leon Powe (No. 49, as part of a trade with Denver) stayed to become key parts of the equation.
Notice that none of the above-mentioned players came high in the first round. In fact, Ainge has had just two single-digit picks with which to build with: The No. 5 pick in 2007 (Jeff Green) was used to land Allen. The No. 7 pick in 2006 (Randy Foye) was shipped to Portland for a pile of garbage (Theo Ratliff, Sebastian Telfair). The rest of Ainge's selections came from back in the pack. Jefferson. Gomes. West. Rondo. Perkins. Davis Powe. There are teams who have been drafting in the top 10 for a decade and haven't pulled in that many useful players/trading chips.
This isn't to say that Ainge hasn't whiffed. Of course he has. Green was a bust, as was Marcus Banks (taken at No. 13, in the Memphis trade).
Ainge has also had some incredible luck. Had the ping pong balls spat out in a different combination a few years ago, the C's would have had Greg Oden and not Garnett. And, of course, it's good to have friends in the right places. Thank you, Kevin McHale.
But the bottom line is the bottom line. The Celts didn't win the lottery the year Hakeem, Duncan or LeBron were available. They aren't in a major-market, warm-weather city where NBA players wanted to go. And still Ainge managed to turn them back into a champi on.
Neat trick, that.
2. Belichick
Two things skew the assessment of Belichick as a talent evaluator: 1. His ability as a coach. 2. Tom Brady.
There's also the winning. Three Super Bowl titles, eight-straight winning seasons and six division crowns tend to generate a lot of credit -- and so Belichick has justly received it.
But when it comes to picking the groceries, the analysis isn't as clear-cut. Belichick is such a good coach and has built such a consistently successful program that a lot of his draft picks end up looking good just because of their surroundings. And Brady only adds to that. Take the offensive line. We look at how it was built and see draft picks across the board, giving the impression that unit was built on the strength of college evaluation. But would Matt Light (second round) be an all-pro in any other system playing in front of any other quarterback? Hard to imagine. We all look at Dan Koppen (fifth round), Logan Mankins (the 32nd pick in the first round) and Nick Kaczur (third round) as solid picks. And they were. But Brady makes them look like great picks.
Belichick certainly would have run away with this competition a few years ago, but his record hasn't been as strong since the Pats last championship in 2004. And his back-to-back weak drafts in 2006 and 2007 were particularly glaring.
To refresh: With Deion Branch's contract battle and Corey Dillon's decline as the likely motivations, the Pats went with offense in the 2006 draft -- and failed. Laurence Maroney, Chad Jackson, Dave Thomas and Garrett Mills were the first four players off the board, and all have been disappointments or flat out busts. The next year saw a different approach, with a second-round pick being sent to Miami for Wes Welker and a fourth going to Oakland for Randy Moss. Those deals were terrific for the Pats, but they also left a big hole between their first-round pick (No. 24) and their next selection at No. 127 in the fourth round. So after safety Brandon Meriweather came off the board, the rest of the weekend was essentially a waste. Only Meriweather and reserve defensive back Mike Richardson remain from that draft class.
Those two years caught up to the Pats this past year, when they ranked 31st in the NFL in the red zone, 31st in touchdown passes allowed and 26th in third-down defense. Belichick has spent the last two drafts digging out of it, and if history is any indication, the defensive woes that plagued the Pats the past couple of years will be history themselves soon. Belichick has proven that once he puts his mind to correcting a problem, it usually gets solved. Whether it's 2008 draft picks Jonathan Wilhite and Terrence Wheatley, or rookie Patrick Chung and Darius Butler, or some combination of Meriweather, Sanders and veterans Shawn Springs and Leigh Bodden -- the Pats figure to tighten in the secondary this season.
And if they don't? We'll have to look even more critically at Belichick's ability to pick 'em, especially in the secondary. Remember, Brady doesn't play defense.
3. Epstein
He promised to build a player development machine when he took over, and that's pretty much what's happened.
Jonathan Papelbon (fourth round), Dustin Pedroia (second), Jacoby Ellsbury (first), and Justin Masterson (second) have contributed directly to the Sox' run. Kevin Youkilis (drafted in the 8th round by Dan Duquette), Manny Delcarmen (a Duquette second-rounder) and Jon Lester (drafted in the second round by Mike Port, with Theo serving as assistant GM, in 2002) were developed under Epstein's program. Daniel Bard (first), Clay Buchholz (first), Michael Bowden (first) and Lars Anderson (18th) are in the pipeline.
This is Epstein's legacy. It's not his failures at shortstop. It's not his prior futility in landing setup guys (something he's=2 0corrected the last few years with Hideki Okajima, Masterson, Ramon Ramirez and Takashi Saito). It's not JD Drew's salary or the pursuit of Daisuke Matsuzaka. Fans like to bitch about those things, but they pale in importance to building a system.
The 2007 title was his. The 2004 title has to be shared with Duquette, especially given the importance of guys like Manny Ramirez, Johnny Damon, Jason Varitek, Derek Lowe, Tim Wakefield and Pedro Martinez to that team. But the Sox wouldn't have won that first title without Curt Schilling, Keith Foulke, Kevin Millar, David Ortiz, Bill Mueller, Dave Roberts, Orlando Cabrera and Doug Mientkiewicz. So if you're asking me who was MORE responsible for 2004, Theo or the Duke, I'm going with Epstein.
As we stand today, Epstein's seven-year resume as GM of the Sox looks like this: two titles, four ALCS appearances and five trips to the playoffs, with an excellent chance for a sixth this season. As Larry David would say, that's pretty good.
4. Peter Chiarelli
Before you start to fit the Bruins' general manager for his genius hat, read this.
So Chiarelli thought he was going to get Tomas Kaberle AND the Leafs' No. 7 overall pick on Friday? Not quite. The Leafs were under the impression that the Bruins would be the ones giving up a first-rounder and the deal blew up. Quite a misunderstanding, wouldn't you say? Anyway, Chiarelli's heart is in the right place. Landing a skilled defensemen is the Bruins' No. 1 need this offseason, and Kaberle fits the bill. I have no problem with him using the incomplete and inconsistent Kessel as bait, even though he scored a team-high 36 goals last year.
As for Chiarelli's record, it's stronger on the development end than the drafting end -- at least so far. Most of the B's current young core was drafted by Mike O'Connell or his assistant Jeff Gorton. Patrice Bergeron (second round, 2003), David Krejci (second round, 2004), Mark Stuart (first round, 2003) and Byron Bitz (fourth round, 2003) were drafted by O'Connell. Milan Lucic (second round, 2006) and Kessel (first round, 2006) were selected when Gorton was technically in charge of the board over the transition summer of 2006.
So Chiarelli didn't necessarily pick those groceries, but he cooked them up very well. That has been perhaps the biggest change from th e old Harry Sinden/O'Connell regime. The new age Bruins have begun to develop players and cultivate talent through the system. That's on Chiarelli. He also deserves credit for trusting some of the prospects he inherited. Many GMs want "their guys." Chiarelli didn't get hung up on that (the Kris Versteeg deal notwithstanding).
As for Chiarelli's own picks, we're going to have to wait and see. His 2007 first-rounder, Zach Hamill (No. 8 overall) had disappointing 13-13-26 totals in 65 games in Providence last season. His 2008 top choice, defenseman Joe Colborne, will head back to the Denver University next year.
Overall, given what Belichick, Epstein and Ainge have accomplished, Chiarelli (one playoff round win) has a long way to go.
How would you rank them? Let me know and we'll hash it out in the mailbag on Thursday.

Comedian Dara O'Briain left clinging to a tree for survival for nearly an HOUR after crashing during Comic Relief Zambezi River challenge
Comedian Dara O'Briain had a scare on Day 2 of the Comic Relief Zambezi River challenge when he was left hanging off a tree after his raft crashed.
The Mock The Week host, 40, and triple jumper Phillips Idowu, 34, left their celebrity teammates fearing something serious had happened after going missing for 90 minutes.
Paddling the last raft through white water rapids on the Zambezi River in Zambia, the pair ended up getting separated from the rest of the group, before crashing their raft.
Scroll down for video
It started off so well: Phillips Idowu and Dara O'Briain set off on Day 2 of the Hell and High Water challenge in Zambia
Clinging on for dear life: Dara managed to grab hold of a tree after being thrown from the raft
After Dara was swept overboard, he ended up climbing on to a nearby tree, where he spent close to an hour hanging off before being rescued.
Meanwhile, his raftmate Phillips remained on the boat, but was tangled up in some bushes as they waited for the crew to rescue them.
Dara and Phillips are on the Hell and High Water Challenge alongside Melanie Chisholm, Jack Dee, Chelsee Healey and Greg James.
Uh oh: Dara and Phillips turn their backs towards the trees as they prepare for the collision
Collision: Phillips remained on the raft and got tangled in the bushes, while Dara went off floating towards the tree
Over five days, they will travel 100 kilometres of the Zambezi River, raising money for Comic Relief.
After being rescued by the crew - who had never lost site of them - Irish funnyman Dara was clearly shaken.
Speaking to TV presenter Emma Willis after his dramatic rescue, Dara explained: 'We'd lost both paddles at this stage and we kinda made a conscious decision will we either go down on our backs or hold onto the raft. We had no control either way.

Farewell: Dara watches his paddle drift away from him
'(On the tree) I thought I can hold myself up in this, but I'd say it was about 2 1/2 knots in the rapids which is like standing in a 90mph gale.'
While Dara showed off cuts on his legs, Phillips had ripped his T-shirt in the brambles.
When asked if he was apprehensive about getting back on the river, Dara admitted: 'Yes, at the moment... I'm not in a rush to go back out. We were due to have a break at the end of these rapids. I think we've earned it.'

Shaken: Dara speaks about his battle to stay on the tree for 40 minutes
Pensive: Dara and Phillips are understandably not in a rush to return to a water raft after their ordeal
After being reunited with their celebrity teammates, Greg, Mel C, Chelsee and Jack listened in horror as Dara and Phillips explained what had happened.
They calculated Dara had been hanging off the tree 'for about 40 minutes', adding: 'I did jump from the tree to a moving boat.'
Speaking to BBC News later on, Greg admits the group were incredibly worried when Dara and Phillips went missing.
War wounds: Dara cut his legs, while Phillips ripped his T-shirt
Survivors: Dara and Phillips are reunited with their teammates after their scary ordeal
Powerful: The celebrities were split into groups of two for the Day 2 rafting challenge
He said: 'Things got really serious. We have no idea (why they weren't the wrong way). They were the back boat. They got too far behind the pack and lost the direction. We went left and they chose right.
'It sounds funny now. There was about an hour, hour or a half where even the guides here were very very worried.'
Speaking to This Morning on Thursday, Emma explained: 'We thankfully managed to bank ourselves in the rapids on a support boat because we were filming everything so we had to try and get both of them. But Dara was on there clinging to the tree for about 30-40 minutes which is a long time.
'We had to negotiate getting across the river to get Phillips and once we got him, we had to go down the river to get Dara. We couldn't stop when we passed Dara so he had to just jump off the tree and grab on to an oar...and thankfully he made it.'
Emotional: Strictly star Chelsee sheds a tear as she meets the children at Mandia School
Making new friends: Phillips chats to some of the students
Sorry to interrupt: Jack sticks his head through a window to chat to a student inside the school
Following their ordeal, the celebrities went on meet villagers at the Siandunda Village and children at the Mandia School, who are being helped by the proceeds raised by Comic Relief.

What is a 'Banker's Acceptance - BA'
A banker's acceptance (BA) is a short-term debt instrument issued by a firm that is guaranteed by a commercial bank. Banker's acceptances are issued by firms as part of a commercial transaction. These instruments are similar to T-Bills and are frequently used in money market funds. Banker's acceptances are traded at a discount from face value on the secondary market, which can be an advantage because the banker's acceptance does not need to be held until maturity. Banker's acceptances are regularly used financial instruments in international trade.
BREAKING DOWN 'Banker's Acceptance - BA'
Banker's acceptances vary in amount, according to the size of the commercial transaction. The date of maturity typically ranges between 30 and 180 days from the date of issue. However, banks or investors often trade the instruments on the secondary market before the acceptances reach maturity. Banker's acceptances are considered to be relatively safe investments, since the bank and the borrower are liable for the amount that is due when the instrument matures.

Hello I'm Ed
Help support your Meetup
This cooking club is for singles who want to meet other singles and who are experienced in the kitchen, and who enjoy some combination of cooking, baking, or firing up your grill (charcoal or gas experience is fine) and are willing to help with dishes/cleanup at the end of the evening. Because I am asked the following, you don't have to have a personal interest in all three: cooking, baking, or grilling. But you enjoy doing one or the other. This festive evening is very social and is part cooking together, part dinner party, a learning experience like a cooking class, and always great fun. The ingredients are organized and grouped together for us to start cooking, just like the cooking channel! The recipes are from magazines like Bon Appetit, Gourmet, and high-end cookbooks. Check out all the details on the upcoming event!

Our children have attended Cole Academy since they were infants, and we have been very, very pleased. The teachers we had are all well-educated with degrees in education. It was so nice to have such consistency, too -- the same teachers have been with the organization a long time so we've really gotten to know them, and they taught each of our kids as the younger siblings joined on. We've found the curriculum to be very learning-oriented -- our kids learned to read early, and when it came time for kindergarten tests and such, they were well above expectations for their age. The program is very consistent and the ratios are low in terms of not too many students-per-teacher. I also like that the facilities are kept neat and clean. Great preparation for kindergarten, too.

My daughter has attended one of The Cole Academy schools since she was an infant. We've been very satisfied with the nurturing and learning that goes on there. They even have doctorate- and masters-degree teachers on staff. Both my husband and I work really long hours so it helps to have a school open for such a long time each day -- with no extra hidden "after school" tuition fees like one supposedly "cheaper" preschool we'd considered. Get on the waitlist as soon as you're pregnant!
This is a terrific school. My oldest child graduated from there and got into all the private kindergartens we applied to. Our toddler is still there and is very satisfied. They have well-qualified teachers and directors with ample years of experience and longevity on staff.

A chronic methamphetamine user and dealer has been given a reduced sentence because of the extraordinary work and study he has done in prison.
The sentencing at the Christchurch District Court heard the list of 26-year-old Johnny Cox's accomplishments during 13 months behind bars on remand.
Cox had been a meth user for seven years until his two arrests in June last year, the court heard. He was caught with the class A drug in Dunedin and then caught again after being involved in the drug scene in Christchurch soon after while on bail.
He was dealing in drugs to finance his own habit, but the Crown accepted there was no evidence of any significant financial gain.
Judge Jane Farish said the drug might have given him a bit of rush when he began using it, but at the time of his arrest he was using increasing amounts to get any euphoric effects at all.
"These drugs are like that," she said.
The judge said Cox had been a regular supplier, over a reasonable period, and had supplied enough methamphetamine that it had the potential to cause harm.
He had admitted charges of offering to supply methamphetamine, supplying it, and possession of it for supply.
The police said their investigations showed he was involved with 40 grams of the drug - a significant quantity.
Defence counsel Tony Garrett said Cox had put his time in jail on remand to good use.
The court was told he worked as a painter in prison, had completed two alcohol and drug programmes, a first aid certificate course, a forklift driving course, an engineering course, and a gambling addiction course.
Perhaps the most impressive accomplishment was passing three drug tests that showed no sign of any use, he said.
Judge Farish reduced the sentence for Cox's guilty pleas and the rehabilitation steps he had taken, and jailed him for two years nine months.
She told him the Parole Board might want him to do more drug and alcohol counselling before his release, but because of the long period on remand he would be eligible to apply for release soon.
As he was taken to the cells, Cox gave a cheery wave to his family, who had come to the session in force to support him.

Salman Khan and his family patriotic, says Sena chief Bal Thackeray
Spicezee Bureau
Mumbai: Superstar Salman Khan`s remarks on 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks courted fresh controversy for Bollywood's enfant terrible and the latter quickly fire-fought the situation by apologising. Shiv Sena had demanded an apology and on Tuesday, the party chief Bal Thackeray said Salman and his family are very much patriotic.
In an editorial in Sena's mouthpiece `Saamana`, Thackeray wrote, "There is no reason for us to harbour anger against Salman. His family is nationalist and patriotic in true sense."
"Salman apologised after the furore in the country (over his remarks). He must have realised that the furore was not by the rich but by the common masses," he added, in an apparent jibe at Salman`s remarks about `hype` over the terror attacks which were 'targeted at the rich'.
The editorial even said, "It is good that Salman was not adamant like Shah Rukh Khan".
Earlier in February this year, Shah Rukh apologised for the controversy over his remarks favouring inclusion of Pakistani players in IPL, however he made it clear that it was not because Shiv Sena was not allowing his movie 'My name is Khan' to be screened at theatres in Maharashtra.
"Salman`s family is patriotic and it is with this responsibility that he should speak and avoid talking on anything but movies," the editorial concluded.
Salman Khan had come under fire for claiming during an interview to a Pakistani channel that the 26/11 attacks were hyped because the "elite" were targeted. He had later apologised, saying he did not mean to hurt anyone`s sentiments and patriotic emotions.
He even announced he will delete his Twitter account too.

Turner Prize-winning artist Grayson Perry to build Disney-style gingerbread house... but it's not such a sweet prospect for the neighbours
- Grayson Perry will build a green and white house with gold roof in Wrabness, Essex
- Home will tell the story of mythical woman called Julie
Once upon a time, Grayson Perry designed a fairy-tale holiday home.
But as the cross-dressing artist's creation resembles a gingerbread cottage clad in bottle-green tiles with a gold roof, the neighbours are not too keen.
Several bitterly objected to the proposed building on the banks of the River Stour on the edge of Wrabness, near Harwich, Essex.
The village with a sweet tooth: The proposed gingerbread house has been attacked by residents who claim it looks like something out of Disneyland
'I think it is completely out of keeping with our beautiful estuary – rather like Disneyland,' said one disgruntled local in a letter to the local authority.
Another complained: 'Why have we got this ugly looking house or whatever you would like to call it?' A third objector called it 'pseudo-subversive neo-kitsch'.
The parish council, meanwhile, was worried it 'does not fit in with the landscape, which is in a proposed Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty'.
But with the protesters outnumbered four to one by supporters, the story ended happily ever after for 52-year-old Perry, with planning permission granted by Tendring District Council for his first foray into architecture.
Big ideas: Grayson Perry says his new project will improve the cultural standing of the area
Residents living in the quiet village have been left fuming after the Turner Prize-winning artist was given the go-ahead to demolish the old farmhouse
Claire and present danger: The proposal by Grayson Perry, seen here as his alter-ego Claire, has angered people in the village
Perry, himself born in Chelmsford, said the two-bedroom house, which holidaymakers will be able to rent, will tell the story of an imaginary Essex woman called Julie and 'relates to buildings put up as memories to loved ones, to follies, to eccentric homebuilt structures, to shrines, lighthouses and fairy tales'.
It will be topped with a statue of
Julie and the walls will be clad with tiles bearing her image, a weather
vane will be 'a celebration of her mothering skills' and over the front
door will be a sculpture of her cat.
A semi-derelict farmhouse currently occupies the overgrown quarter-acre plot, at the end of a single-track lane.
It will be demolished to make way for Perry's house, which will be more than 500 yards from the nearest property.
Better known for his ceramic works, Perry, who won the Turner Prize in 2003 and has since been a panellist on Have I Got News For You, admitted his initial design for the house was carried out while 'doodling wildly and quite drunkenly in front of the television'.
The project was commissioned by Living Architecture, a body set up by the philosopher and lateral thinker Alain de Botton which aims to 'revolutionise' architecture and UK holiday rentals.
The Perry-designed house is expected to be open for paying guests in 2014.
How much it will cost to rent is not yet known. Other, larger properties are advertised on Living Architecture's website at a cost of around £25 per person per night.

The Aresawa rockslide in the Japanese Alps experienced a partial collapse (5–10 × 105 m3) in 2004, followed by an accelerated downward movement of the head area rather than stabilization. This paper discusses the kinematics of a retrogressive rockslide area and factors promoting slope instability subsequent to the 2004 collapse, on the basis of geodetic surveys and meteorological observations from 2006 to 2010. The unstable area covers at least 2·3 × 104 m2 and consists of five active blocks. The main blocks are separated from the stable rock slope by pre-existing 'sackung features' that follow the strike of the bedding plane. Shear zones below these sackung features have developed into slip planes potentially causing the next collapse. In particular, the propagation of a slip plane causing movement at 70 cm yr−1 in the head area is promoted by bidirectional movement. It consists of slow 'dip-slip' movement in snow-accumulating periods and rapid 'side-slip' movement in snow-melting and snow-free periods, both of which occur on the same slip plane. This bidirectional movement appears to result from the combination of a loss of lateral support by the 2004 event and the immature state of the slip plane. The primary trigger of the acceleration in the unstable area is the stress release by the 2004 collapse. In addition, the presence of a potential slip plane below the sackung features also promotes slope instability, suggesting that sackung features behind a rockslide area may predefine the new head scarp of a forthcoming collapse.

Announced at CES 2014, Kingston has released their replacement of the Blu series of RAM modules. Named "Fury," the new HyperX series of DDR3 RAM claim to make overclocking even easier by automatically detecting the appropriate speeds and timings for your motherboard, making these modules "Plug and Play" ready. Arriving in 4GB, 8GB single, 8GB dual or 16GB dual-channel kits, the Fury line will have frequencies of 1333 MHz (CL9), 1600MHz (CL9), or 1866 MHz(CL10). A new asymmetric heat-spreader design in red, blue, white or black colors covers a stylish black PCB, adding a distinct look to this newest memory kit from Kingston. Benchmark Reviews received one of the dual-channel 8GB kits for testing (model HX318C10FWK2/8), so let's see how these modules compare.
