The Design District at the Greenwich Peninsula: food market by SelgasCano and rooftop basketball court by Architecture 00.
Developer Knight Dragon has chosen nine firms to draw up plans for the 1.08ha design district, including Mole Architects, Adam Khan Architects, 6a Architects, David Kohn Architects and Architecture 00.
They are joined by international leading lights SelgasCano – the Madrid-based designer of the 2015 Serpentine pavilion, Barcelona-based Barozzi/Veiga – winners of the 2015 Mies van der Rohe Prize, and growing Copenhagen-based studio Schulze+Grassov which is working on the landscape design.
The list is completed by London’s Assemblage which is also masterplanning the 14,000m² project – a scheme billed as the ’first purpose-built district designed specifically for the creative industries’ in the capital.
Each of the firms, except Schulze+Grassov, has been given two ‘sugar cubes’ to design, with the aim of creating ‘16 front doors to 16 very different buildings’.
According to the development team, the plans were inspired by ‘old photographs and construction sites, dinner tables and the diversity of Londoners’.
Subject to planning approval, work could start on site in January next year and is expected to take less than two years to complete.

Welcome to Balance Chiropractic & Wellness!
Before your first appointment we ask that you complete your new patient paperwork available online. This will allow you more time with Dr. Jen during your appointment. If you prefer to complete it in our office we ask that you arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled appointment time.
When you first visit Balance Chiropractic & Wellness you’ll be welcomed into our fun, inviting space. Dr. Jen will sit down with you for your consultation. Together you’ll discuss your goals for your health as well as any concerns you might have.
After the consultation you’ll have a thorough spinal examination, which will assess the overall function of the spine. This will include any areas of concern. We’ll use the Insight Subluxation Station to determine how your nervous system is functioning.
In particular we’ll look at your spine, which is the center of your nervous system. We’re excited to offer this new technology in our office, because it provides us with so much more information about your spine and its function.
If needed, we’ll take a set of X-rays on our patients. We generally do not expose our young children to X-rays. If it is truly necessary, we will not move forward without a discussion with and full consent from the child’s parent.
After the examination we will schedule you for your next visit within a day or two.
When you return for your second visit Dr. Jen will review her report of findings with you. She’ll talk about what she found during your exam and will explain her recommendations for moving forward with your care. After this discussion, you’ll be ready for your first adjustment.
Dr. Jen typically does not adjust during the first visit so that she can do a thorough review of her findings. Especially in cases of autism or sensory disorders Dr. Jen will want to make sure that she is giving you the best information before moving forward.
At Balance Chiropractic & Wellness we use a hands-on manual adjustment process. We’ll explain the process to you every step of the way. We will also provide parents with tactile information about their child’s adjustment.
We’ll show you the gentle pressure that will be used – think of testing a ripe peach or a ripe tomato.
Children are welcome to watch mom or dad be adjusted before they are adjusted. We’ll take their hand and show them the same gentle pressure that will be used as well as demonstrate why they are being adjusted.
Using the dimmer switch in our office, we can show how nervous system interference affects the body’s function. Just like a light on a dimmer the body’s nerve energy is reduced by interference.
Our office manager will investigate your insurance carrier’s coverage to support your care in our office and give you our best estimate as to what your costs will be. If you don’t have insurance coverage or you don’t want to submit claims to your high deductible plan we do offer an affordable cash plans and payment options.
Each patient is different and the plan for your care will depend on your individual concerns. Some people express concern that they will have to see a chiropractor for the rest of their lives.
Mild, repetitive daily stresses are usually the biggest culprit in causing misalignments. Problems tend to be caused by cumulative damage from daily life stressors. To avoid these problems, we recommend you be checked regularly to clear these compound effects.
Your spine serves as your body’s nerve center and is responsible for keeping your body running. Just as you would see a dentist for regular cleanings or a mechanic for routine tune-ups to your car, it’s recommended that you seek routine chiropractic care to keep your body functioning at its best.
You may still have questions about your chiropractic care.

NMMU and UP-Tuks each scored in the last five minutes in their Varsity Football clash in Tshwane to end all square at 1-1.
The visitors thought they had stolen victory when a Lyndsay Stowman strike gave them a 1-0 lead in the final stages, but Tuks hit back with a penalty in injury time to salvage a draw.
The match got off to a tense start as the teams battled for the early ascendency. The visitors showed that they would be a threat going forward by creating a few opportunities as they made Tuks work hard on defence.
NMMU produced the first real opportunity when the ball was taken up to the goal-line by Leroy van Rensburg who pulled it back for striker Cloudius Sagandira, but his shot canonned back off the crossbar and Tuks escaped.
The home side started to string some passes together as they looked to gain some momentum, but the NMMU defence was very organised and shut them down quite quickly.
Tuks were working hard as they tried to put the visitors under pressure, but they could not find a way through and the match remained goalless at half-time.
Tuks had a great chance to open the scoring at the start of the second half when Lawrence Ntwane met a free kick, but his header went over the bar.
The home side enjoyed far more possession in the second half as they built their attacks from deep in their own half.
Tuks had a great opportunity when Nii-Ordartey Mills was brought down just outside the box by Niven Kopps, but Kabelo Ramongane’s free kick hit the wall.
The Tshwane side lifted the tempo in the final stages as they searched for the goal that would secure all three points, but they were denied by some desperate defending and a good save from NMMU goalkeeper Lyndsay Jennings.
Instead, it would be NMMU who found the back of the net as Stowman pounced after what seemed to be a handball at the top of the box.
The referee was not interested in the protests from Tuks and the goal stood, but that was not the end of the drama as Tuks levelled matters in injury time.
The referee awarded a penalty for a handball and Mbongeni Masilela stepped up to slot the kick and salvage a point for his side.
NMMU: 16 Lyndsay Jennings, 20 Lundi Balfour, 3 Andile Mtyingizane, 22 Niven Kops, 19 Lukhanyo Sompondo, 6 Kurt Duff, 2 Lindsay Stowman, 17 Onneetse Leboifo, 10 Cloudius Sagandira, 7 Leroy van Rensburg, 8 Lukhanyo Rasmeni.
Reserves: 1 Mfundo Moyikwa, 21 Zukisani Mtendeni, 5 Cornelius Matuoane, 4 Peter Thekisho, 23 Chuma Fobo, 13 Vuoyolwethu Marele, 25 Bradley Peterson.

Figure 2-1. Entering tasks in the project.
Tasks are the engines that propel the progress of a project. A task represents an amount of work with a clear outcome. As tasks are worked on, Project calculates their effect on the overall outcome of the project. If you have done a good job of project planning, you should already have an idea of what you need to do to accomplish your project's goals. So crack your knuckles and get readyit's time to enter tasks into your project!
Navigate to your Practice folder and open the Lesson 2 file. Save the file as Task List.
Click the first cell of the Task Name field.
When entering a task, pick a name that clearly identifies the purpose of the task.
Type Write Microsoft Project 2003 and press Enter.
The task is named and numbered.
Enter a few more tasks into the project.
Your task list should look similar to Figure 2-1. Notice that even though you haven't entered anything more than the task name, Project has entered more information for the task based on the information it already has about the project.

It started out promising enough.
Hot showers aboard – we’ve got that down, at last (click to read about when we didn’t). Fellow cruisers Rebecca and Mike from Zero to Cruising (click here to read their excellent blog) over for breakfast of steak, eggs med, and mimosas, before we headed our separate ways. We’d already sadly said goodbye to Colleen and Michael of Goldilocks (more on them in a future post), also headed South. Planned boatwork projects complete, we were ready, antsy even, to leave St. Thomas and sail Northwest, to the Spanish Virgins, Puerto Rico’s smaller islands.
See that narrow, heavily shoaled section that forms a pass?
out from there. It’s a busy point, easy to run aground.
Over breakfast, our BBQ propane tank ran out of fuel. Not a big deal. I panfried the steaks instead, and after breakfast, refueling diesel, propane and water was our first stop, just a few miles West, still on St. Thomas, at Crown Bay Marina. Diesel was cheaper there than at IGY Marina, closer to our current anchorage. We were down to a little more than 5 gallons, mostly in our jerry jug -- about 10 hours of motoring time. We figured it was wiser to fill here than in Puerto Rico, though we were confident we had more than enough diesel to get us there.
Wayne hoisted our anchor, whilst I started the motor, headed out of the anchorage. Wayne unfurled our jib, taking advantage of a brisk downwind. Then our up-until-now trusty Westerbeke 40 diesel motor abruptly stopped. It did not restart.
Wayne steered us past the narrow opening between HaulOver Cut’s shoals, readying to re-anchor the first safe place we could. Navigating a Crown Bay Marina docking in a 20 knot wind with no working motor struck us as unwise.
Approaching the lee side of Water Island, we dropped anchor in Ruyer Bay. We are chargined to admit we’re remiss in practicing sail-powered ancoring. Spurred by a brisk wind and swift current, our anchor did not initially bite, we dragged. “Don’t hit us!!!” shouted the woman about the catamaran we missed by only 8 feet. DIdn’t blame her, as we’ve been on the receiving and of a collision ourselves (click here to read about that). “Don’t hit the reefs ahead of you!” shouted another cruiser.
Fortunately, our relatively shallow 4 ½ foot draft skated us safely past the reefs, and our anchor finally bit, and held. By one of our few strokes of luck that day, our anchorage neighbor was Keith on Kookaburra, who immediately offered to help. Wayne thanked him and replied he’d do a little troubleshooting first.
After a few frustrated first attempts, Wayne dinghied over to take Keith up on his offer. On Wayne’s dinghy back, the dinghy’s painter slipped before he could secure the dinghy to our boat. It promptly ensued drifting out to sea. Keith, on his way to our boat in his dinghy, grapped it before Wayne or I needed to swim after it.
Joseph from Crown Bay Marina Botyard still managed to drop by late afternoon. Together he and Wayne ruled out a number of motor failure causes. The process included Wayne’s getting rainsoaked in the cockpit, while I raced to the v-berth to close its hatch, then straddled our settee cushions to get “tall” enough to close our midship hatch, before our cabin got wetter.
Beautiful, clear, water in Ruyter Bay, viewed from Journey’s bow.
on a sunnier day than our emergency anchoring.
Joseph’s hunch is the fuel pressure pump may be the culprit. He believed running low on gas potentially clogged it with particles in the tank. Worst case, repair could require removal of the pump, which would then need to be mailed to Florida to be rebuilt, mailed back and reinstalled, as it’s not a readily available part. Joseph left a little after 5 pm., promising to get back to us tomorrow morning after he did a bit more research.
Not good news, considering we’d already spent nearly two weeks in St. Thomas and were impantient to head North.
Wayne put the cabin back together. Earlier that day, it seemed Wayne chased his cold off. I was hearing him sniffle again, so I cooked up chicken ramen soup for dinner. It was good, but Wayne spilled it on himself. He changed into dry clothes. He spilled soup on himself again.
As day slipped into eve. we had to run the generator as the rain and clouds and short motor ride tapped our battery too low for comfort. Arg!
to our next destination, the Spanish Virgin Islands of Puerto Rico.
All around, just not one of our better days.
It could’ve been a lot worse. We didn’t hit anyone (even if we did come way too close). We anchored safely (eventually). It’s near our planned first stop; dinghy-able to where we can refill our propane tanks. The water here flows quickly and cleanly enough to feel comfortable running our watermaker. We had a great neighbor. We broke down close to help, rather than say, halfway between Puerto Rico and the Turks & Caicos, a 3-day sail. Shi- happens. We get over it, and move on… eventually.
On older diesel sailboats, the owners used to rig a "day" tank above the engine. This was a 3 - 5 gallon tank that would feed the engine by gravity bypassing the fuel pump as well as making bleeding the air from the lines much easier. This would allow you to motor for most of a day at least to the marina where repairs could be made.
Thanks, Chuck. Great idea. Alternatively, Wayne's done the same thing with our jerry can of diesel. Still working on sussing out the exact cause of the failure and the fix.
Thanks for the well-wishes, Alice.
Frustratingly, we are still stuck & waiting anxiously for status on the part we believe is the culprit and sent out about a week ago. Yesterday the mechanic we're working with went back to the post office to find out why NOTHING is showing up on its tracking status.
Where are you these days? Last I heard, DR.

It was my pleasure to meet the creative and articulate Rob Bowker in the flesh. After checking out the vintage shops of Shoreditch we headed for antiques day at Spitalfields Market.
This booth included quite a few typewriters. The seller told us he finds them in many places and they go to many buyers, young and old, for £35-100 apiece. Today he had a Smith-Corona Corsair, a Remington Super-Riter, an Empire Aristocrat, an Olympia Splendid, and a Tippa S.
(by appointment to HRH the late King George VI). Model 2?
Then it was time for a pub and a couple of pints of Timothy Taylor's Landlord.
We each brought a shiny green ultraportable.
Rob's Antares Parva has the nicest, glossiest finish I've ever seen on this model, and it can type a pilcrow (¶)!
hand at the Kolibri. He was a good typist, too!
And here's the three-author text I carried away as a souvenir.
Forgive the incoherence of my notes on Rob's quite coherent spoken thoughts.
Rob, thanks for great conversation and a good time. I look forward to our next meeting.
Ah! So, is there a beer review coming forth of that glass he's drinking?
Looks like some great fun has been had by the two of you. And that Antares is quite a little machine!
And I fully endorse his observations.
It appears from the volume of writing done that there was more talking and drinking going on that typing, but clearly the magic of typewriters sucked in a new convert in Archie and perhaps one of the typewriters you guys spotted will get adopted in the coming days by a budding young typist who got his first taste of a Kolibri in a pub by a visiting Yank.
What a great trip! I bet the Kolibri gets a lot of attention wherever you go. Have you received any comments from passersby about the machine? What are their reactions when they see you (and hear you!) typing?
I agree, other people didn't interfere or pay much attention -- maybe that's the admirable British quality of letting eccentrics pursue their harmless eccentricities. When Archie was willing to show his curiosity, his father chimed in with some smiling recollections of typewriting.
By the way, I learned today that the paragraph symbol has a name- "pilcrow". Something I have never known before! I shall be working that term into my conversations in the next few days.
Archie, huh? Instantly made me think of the old "Archie & Mehitabel" poetry. In fact I thought it was a reference to it until I realized it was the lad's name.
Just realized the spelling of "Archy" is different. Still, perhaps there is a typewriter and an alley cat in the lad's future.
Ha, you're right! That hadn't occurred to me.
Or, of course, maybe he was writing a tribute to e. e. cummings.
It is good to have a picture of Rob. It appears you both had a nice time at the type-in. I, like Peter, have learned something new today: the name for the paragraph symbol. If I ever knew it from the print shop from decades ago I forgot it.
What fun! Glad the type-in went really well and it's great to see a young volunteer typist.
Thanks to Rob, I'm taking a second look at the Antares Parva, very nice.
Very enjoyable tale, which brought to live the convivial atmosphere of a British pub. We are starting to figure out how to pull that off over here in the States, but it is slow going lighting up and opening up the bars.
That's just what I was telling Rob -- there's something welcoming about a good English pub that is imitated by some US bars but rarely with success.
Beautiful typewriters! Love those ultra portables. I've yet to find anything like that in Kentucky.

3.5 is pretty good when you rated each story individually. I suspect the bad ones would have sunk the whole anthology for me.
Yeah, since it took four months (I don’t know why…yes I do but I won’t get into it) to finish collection I was surprised going back to see how I rated things. But that’s why I go by the average of the ratings for each story to “grade” the book, IMHO it’s fairer though it’ll probably mean that book will always be somewhere from 2.5-3.5 stars.

Failure can hurt. But did you really fail?
That’s what a colleague in the midst of a job transition told me after a recent disappointment.
She’d spent months working hard to land a new job and was closing in on what looked like a fantastic opportunity. After multiple interviews, she was feeling optimistic about the possibility of an offer.
The company announced that the division was being sold and initiated a hiring freeze.
Frustrating? Absolutely. Discouraging? You bet. A failure? That depends on your perspective.
When you’re so close to achieving what you feel will be a great success that you can almost taste it, labeling it a failure when things don’t work out might be your default response. It can feel like all your hard work was a waste of time. You’re back to square one.
But is that true? It’s all in your point of view.
Now she’s buffing her resilience muscles as she re-groups and plans her next steps. Based on her demonstrated work ethic, the new clarity she’s acquired and the skills she’s sharpened, I have every confidence that she’s going to find a terrific opportunity.
What about you? When you experience a setback, how do you respond?
Here are 3 strategies that can help you avoid falling into the “I’ve failed” trap.
Acknowledge your feelings. When you’ve worked hard to achieve a goal, it’s normal to feel discouraged or sad when it doesn’t work out. Take time to process what happened and feel what you feel. Denying your feelings leads to internalizing them. This can fuel your inner critic or cause resentment and anger to simmer. Treat yourself with kindness instead.
Avoid catastrophizing. Once you’ve processed your feelings, take a look at what really happened. It’s likely not as terrible as it may have initially felt. What are the facts? By looking at the situation more objectively, you can determine what went well, what you learned and where you might take a different approach in the future.
Think progress, not perfection. You can choose to see achieving your goal as a win or lose proposition. But this all or nothing thinking diminishes the real growth and learning that comes from working towards an important objective. By tracking your progress and appreciating the small wins along the way, your mindset focuses on success, not failure.
The next time you start to think you’ve failed and need to go back to the drawing board, remember this: what you learn from your setbacks can become the springboard to your success.

Creaney on spot to break through Nirvana's brick wall.
Aaron Parkinson made two changes to the team that started at Cogenhoe last Saturday. Dean Lukeman came in for the rested Dan Childs at left-back, while Adam Confue was back in after returning from suspension at the expenses of Phil Cassidy. New dual signing, Sam Jackson, from Coventry Sphinx FC was named on the bench.
Adam Creaney’s second-half penalty was enough to see off a resolute Nirvana side at Elderstubbs on Saturday.
Despite dominating possession and chances created throughout the game, it needed Creaney’s 67th minute spot kick to break the deadlock and ultimately win the game as David Clay’s side proved to be a typically tough unit to penetrate.
We controlled the first half with Michael Antkowiak making good saves from Taylor Orosz and Kieran Fitzgerald, and Emery putting a drive over the bar after a good move among our best chances, but we couldn’t find a way through by the interval.
Nirvana did have a couple of sights of goal in the opening period. Shaq Master connected with Joe Jarvis’ cross on the half hour mark which forced Lustin Cerga to dive low and collect, and they had a glorious chance six minutes later, Chris Anastasi slipping at the vital moment when volleying with only Cerga to beat, easy for keeper to collect.
Antkowiak was called into action again by Creaney early in the second period before we eventually opened the scoring.
The entertainment value was raised before the hour, as Town seemed to be given a spot kick when Fitzgerald was tripped. The referee deemed to have pointed to the spot so Creaney picked up the ball, Rich Gerald was booked, and the players gathered outside the area. Was not to be as goal kick was actually awarded, and the booking was awarded for an earlier offence.
Another twist in the tail was not far away, as referee Martin Gospel pulled his hamstring, so assistant Keith Lawrence became the man in the middle. Our Committee Member and qualified referee, Craig Turnbull, stepped in and became the third official on the hour.
Seven minutes later, the deadlock was broken as Fitzgerald was brought down by Ryan Calver inside the area and Creaney buried his penalty, driving the ball into the top left with Antkowiak diving the same way.
Further chances fell to Fitzgerald, who hit the side-netting, and Creaney, his curling effort deflecting off Dean Master and away for a corner. We held firm, though, making it 7 wins and three draws from our 10 Premier Division games at Elderstubbs this season and keeping the gap from second place Deeping to four points.
We have a midweek game ahead of us, when we take on Oadby Town. Nick Brett’s side has hit a bit of a rocky patch lately and are currently on a run of three wins in their last 10. Kick-off at Elderstubbs, this Tuesday, is at 7.45pm.
Town: Cerga, Merrill, Lukeman, Harris (c), Alexander, Confue, Fitzgerald, McGowan (Stanbridge 69), Emery, Creaney (J Orosz 81), T Orosz (Cassidy 77). Substitutes (not used): Childs, Jackson.
Nirvana: Antkowiak, Jarvis, D Master, Calver, Gerald (c), Poulton, Anastasi, Swain, Nassor, Gonga, S Master. Substitutes (not used): Wingfield, Cisse, Nelson.
Goals: Town – Creaney 67 (pen).
Yellow cards: Nirvana – S Master (Foul), Gerald (Foul).

The U.S. House narrowly rejected on Thursday an amendment that would have barred transgender service members from being eligible for transition-related health care, including gender reassignment surgery.
The measure, which would have barred the Defense Department from expending funds on transition-related care, was introduced by Rep. Vicky Hartzler (R-Mo.) as part of the fiscal year 2018 defense authorization bill, but rejected on a 214-209 vote.
After Rep. Doug Collins (R-Ga.), who presided over the vote, called out the tally, Democrats in the House chamber applauded in victory. Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney (D-N.Y.), who’s gay and a co-chair of the LGBT Equality Caucus, could be seen raising both hands in the air in a double-fist bump in celebration.
All 190 Democrats present voted against the proposal. They were joined by 24 Republicans, including Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-Fla.), who has a transgender son, as well as Rep. Charlie Dent (R-Pa.), Rep. Barbara Comstock (R-Va.), Rep. Justin Amash (R-Mich.) and Mike Coffman (R-Colo.).
The vote on the amendment takes place after a short, but intense, period of debate on the House floor in which Hartzler and her GOP allies defended the measure and Democratic opponents criticized it as discriminatory.
Hartzler maintained the amendment was intended to focus the attention of the U.S. military on confronting the nation’s adversaries — such as North Korea, Russia and the Islamic State — instead of other tasks.
Transgender service members began serving openly in the U.S. military last year after then-Defense Secretary Ashton Carter lifted the ban on open service. The target date for allowing openly transgender people to enlist in the armed forces was July 1, 2017, although Defense Secretary James Mattis pushed back that date until January 1, 2018.
As evidence of “many problems with this policy,” Hartzler cited the cost of transition-related care as well as transgender service members being unable to deploy as they recover from transition. The Missouri Republicans said care would cost $1.35 billion over the course of 10 years — a figure wildly higher than estimates from military experts.
Hartzler also cited a “lack of medical consensus” on transition-related care, even though that treatment is supported by major medical organizations such as the American Medical Association.
The amendment, Hartzler said, does “not preclude service by transgenders” and permits them to have health care other those related to gender transition, even though transgender service members across the board will likely need access to some form of transition-related care to remain in the armed forces.
Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-Calif.), a Marine veteran who served in the Iraq war, likely offered the most visceral defense of the Hartzler amendment on the House floor.
Notably, Hartler was often left to herself when defending her amendment, while Democrats brought several members to the floor who were more prominent, including House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and House Democratic Whip Steny Hoyer (D-Md.).
Pelosi said the amendment was a thinly-veiled attempt to ban transgender service members from the armed forces by seeking to deny them medically necessary care.
Prior to the vote, the anti-LGBT Heritage Foundation sent out an email blast urging lawmakers to vote in favor of Hartlzer amendment on the basis it supports the military.
Thomas Spoehr, director for the Center for National Defense at The Heritage Foundation, said in a statement the measure is necessary to keep the military focused on its job and to limit costs.
The amendment marked the first-time ever the U.S. House held a vote specifically targeting the transgender community.
Chad Griffin, president of the Human Rights Campaign, commended lawmakers on both sides of the aisle in a statement for rejecting the amendment.
Just remember that once again it’s a Republican working against your best interest here not a Democrat. This is typical pattern and reinforces why the GOP is bad for GLBT and should not vote conservatives like this into office!
But we should also thank the 24 republicans that voted against it.
Yes. It would help if the Blade listed them all. Thank you.
There would be no need to thank anyone for voting against anti-LGBT bills if Republicans would stop pushing the agenda of social conservatives to introduce them!
The GOP leadership does little if anything to prevent let alone halt the assault on GLBT rights and freedoms! While Obama said he’d no longer enforce DOMA, it was the GOP leadership in Congress that went out of their way to petition the SCOTUS to push for its enforcement spending taxpayer funds to boot!
It’s not Democrats introducing these bills! I’m sure all the Republicans voting against it are considered RINOs by their staunch conservative counterparts!
Just goes to show that it’s easier to persuade Republicans to support transgender rights than it’s to persuade Democrats to lower taxes. So, unless you care about this one issue only, you should always vote Republican!
Not exactly equal trade offs . There are plenty of fiscally conservative and socially liberal Republicans. Not long ago Republicans used to be the defenders of civil rights overall country is quickly moving toward equal treatment ending bigotry and discrimination. Regardless of fiscal views main job of government is to protect its people …all its people.
What? Category them as subhuman? This has got Hitler all over it.
