A Guide to the New Ruins of Great Britain by Owen Hatherley | Art and design | The Guardian
Playing with food . . . Chips, Will Alsop's apartment building in a derelict area of Manchester. Photograph: Christian Richters
In stylistic terms, the differences were even more marked. The blocks of flats clad themselves so as not to look like the repetitive concrete-framed tower blocks they actually were; the office blocks did the same via the "barcode façade", a ubiquitous method of making a glass box look vaguely irregular. Meanwhile, the "showpiece" buildings, such as Daniel Libeskind's Imperial War Museum North, Michael Wilford's Lowry, Capita Percy Thomas's Cardiff Millennium Centre, Norman Foster's Sage Gateshead or Hamilton Architects' atrocious Liverpool Pier Head Terminal, appear to have been designed from the outside in, shapes and logos waiting around for appropriate functions to be conjured out of them. If form once claimed to follow function, then here form was the function – to be eyecatching, to attract tourists, to get the cameras snapping. If Modernism was about revealing structure, showing the workings, and attempting to transcend the divide between architect and engineer, now the architect draws a shape and asks the engineer to make it stand up.
The lack of confidence behind this apparent resurgence becomes obvious when you look at the results. The European equivalents of these schemes – the Céramique in Maastricht, say, or HafenCity in Hamburg – serve the same pecuniary interests and display a similar pseudomodernist aesthetic, but are scrupulously put together, expensively detailed, with a great deal of money and thought put into the design of the public space.
Here in the UK, with a tiny handful of exceptions, we've been keen to parcel off these spaces to the cheapest available firms, and to let the property developers lead the way on what was, for the most part, publicly owned land, out of the fear that they and their money might disappear if they were in any way challenged. In Leeds, especially, the result is astoundingly cheap-looking architecture, with the developers assuming we wouldn't notice the meanness and cheapness if they put a wavy roof on top and plenty of contrasting materials on the façade; the Commission for Architecture and the Built Environment found that in many cases the "luxury flats" in these "stunning developments" were well below the Parker Morris minimum standards established for council housing in the early 60s.
The hole in Bradford concealed the foundations of a shopping mall, part of a Will Alsop masterplan that intended to flood a city centre lacking in picturesque water features. The fence was emblazoned with all the propaganda of regeneration – "Café Culture", "Urban Energy". When I was there, somebody had scrawled the message "BEST AMONG RUINS". The planned shopping district has been indefinitely shelved, turned into a municipal park, albeit a temporary and slightly shabby one. It would be very tempting to claim this as a small victory, an example of failure transformed into something worthwhile. Yet its first appearance in the national press occurred when the English Defence League staged a "static demonstration" there in August – a first sign of the horrible weeds that might be growing out of the ruins.

Group was requested to look at requirements for cords intended to be hung around the neck. Ramon Primicias spoke for the Flammability wg – CPSC was sent a document requesting interpretation on various example toys. No response yet.

Please help me repair the damage. by AmItool8in Parenting[–]moderatemormon 0 points1 point2 points 2 days ago (0 children)Be a parent, not a friend. It's ok that she doesn't like you. There's a decent chance that no matter how great a parent you are that she'll go through phases where she lashes out for no apparent reason.
The most important thing you can do is reassure her. Be sure you tell her you love her. Not just when things are good, or bad, but just because. If she has a phone text her little messages of love. Write with dry erase marker messages on her mirror so that when she goes to get ready in the morning your feelings are there for her. Don't get upset with yourself that she doesn't like you. I'm not justifying your behavior, but doing things like promising you'll never raise your voice again is counterproductive. Be realistic. Screaming at her, telling her you'll never do it again, and then inevitably raising your voice to her is a cycle that has no good end.
Talk to her like an adult and explain to her how you're feeling. Express that you want to help with her homework because you love her and want what's best for her. Explain that it would be easy for you to let her do what she wants, and she would probably be happy in the short term, but that your whole job is to look beyond today and try to help her be happy in the long term. Try to help her understand why you make the decisions that you do.
Explain to her that we all make bad choices, and that you yelling at her the way you did just means your human. Don't pretend everything is ok or that it's not bad to yell, but express to her that you will do your best to improve.
Above all, love her. She will put your love to the test and try to push you away. Don't give in, but be sure to always let her know you love her.
permalinkcontextfull comments (115)Microsoft talks about the buying of Mojang. by turdle654in Minecraft[–]moderatemormon 4 points5 points6 points 3 days ago (0 children)When discussing Minecraft sales it's important to note the nature of the appeal. When you have a Destiny type game the graphics and gameplay are frozen in time. As graphics improve and gameplay evolves the next big thing will take over. It has a built in expiration date.
Minecraft doesn't rely on graphics, and for the foreseeable future defines the expectations of gameplay for this genre.
Minecraft is more an evolving community than game at this point, and every year there is a new crop of kids that are old enough to play it. In many cases they've spent the last couple of years watching their siblings/friends/relatives playing it. It's also important that as the players age their experience with Minecraft can mature. This isn't a case where they pass their game down to their siblings. They discover survival mode, redstone, mods, and keep playing so the upcoming generation need their own accounts.
There's no reason to believe that sales of Minecraft are going to die off. "Market Saturation" as a concept is unlikely to apply to Minecraft the way it does in many comparable situations.

You're not Billy Mays. Your appeal is how effective you are at communicating, and your relatability.
Being authentic and true to yourself is what got you this far. Let the mistakes and growing pains show. We all love you for who you are.
The comments on a larger number of shorter videos and demos are spot on, however. Personally I think a nice variety would be great.

I have a hard time imagining a more concise yet thorough destruction of a company. While your knowledge is formidable, I feel it's your ability to say a whole lot with relatively few words that is the secret to your appeal. I feel like the best advice I've seen for you in this thread is to be yourself. You have a natural ability to communicate difficult to understand or traditionally "boring" information in a very effective manner. This is a rare ability, and we're all very fortunate you found us.

I have to agree that it's fairly rare to have a negative experience with players at this point (and if I do have one it's nearly 100% something simple like "this alistar", "way to feed", or "gg ez")
It's still fairly common to have a teammate DC, which nearly always results in a loss, and more frustratingly it's frequently a waste of 20 minutes while we wait for the ability to surrender a game that's clearly lost.
Once it's clear my teammate isn't coming back and the game is beyond salvaging I'll try to inform the enemy team about the situation and in post-game chat I'll generally request they report the AFK/DCed player. I don't want to continue this if it's considered a negative or toxic behavior. That being said I only say it once, and primarily as a reminder to the other team. Based on your comment this wouldn't be kosher since the opposing team got a free win which almost no one would consider a negative experience. Is it accurate then to infer that you don't want the enemy team to report the afk player on my team?
Again, probably a stupid question but I am very interested in your position on this issue. While I obviously don't have any statistics I certainly have the perception that there's an afk/dced player in my game 10x more often then there is actual toxic attitude. permalinkcontextfull comments (326)[Draft Strategy] What do you do when ALL the QBs go early? by Chawpin fantasyfootball[–]moderatemormon 0 points1 point2 points 23 days ago (0 children)Ask yourself this question:
Is Ben Tate going to get me more points this year in the #3 slot than a good starting QB?
For me the answer is a clear NO. Waiting on a QB is a great strat in a league where people overvalue them, but you almost certainly waited too long. The point difference between Locker and who you could have drafted in the 6th (or even fifth, though I like the Patterson pick there) is much larger than the difference between Tate and Chris Johnson, for example. Value based drafting isn't simply getting a player at a position as late as possible, it's understanding the difference in points you'll be able to get at the position vs. taking someone at a different spot. Understanding your league and how the draft is progressing is critical to maximizing the value of your draft picks. permalinkcontextfull comments (71)Which iOS draft app is the best? by theLON3wandererin fantasyfootball[–]moderatemormon 0 points1 point2 points 23 days ago (0 children)Yet another vote for the Football Guys app as well.
I've been using their desktop app on my laptop for years, and using the app on my ipad was even better in some ways.
It allows you to customize your rankings and other settings, and even though I had set up the league slightly wrong this year I was able to make the changes on the fly in the middle of the draft without getting behind.
It's the only software I use on draft night.
permalinkcontextfull comments (4)[standard] BG Nissa by rp-in spikes[–]moderatemormon 1 point2 points3 points 23 days ago (0 children)Right on. Gonna give this a shot. Will report back.
permalinkcontextfull comments (28)[standard] BG Nissa by rp-in spikes[–]moderatemormon 0 points1 point2 points 23 days ago (0 children)Great thoughts! I moved to mono green with Nyssa and then to Rabble Red the last couple weeks, but people are siding heavy against Rabble now so maybe I'll build this and give it a try!
I want to try a Nyssa or two. What would you cut to give that a shot?
permalinkcontextfull comments (28)[standard] BG Nissa by rp-in spikes[–]moderatemormon 0 points1 point2 points 24 days ago (0 children)I don't have a list, since I tweaked it constantly for nearly a year. The main difference was I had more ramp (mystics/caryatids) instead of pack rat, and wasn't running ooze or reaper maindeck. I also had 3 read the bones, had 2 whips maindeck, and wasn't running underworld connections. Honestly your list seems slower, since I was fairly reliably dropping a demon or polukronos on turn 3. I also had big trouble when I tried to run mutavault since almost the entire list was double black or double green to cast. I wasn't running pack rat, so I'm guessing that gives you more tempo but still seems very vulnerable to verdict. The matches that I did win were almost always due to whipping back creatures that had been countered for hasty beats. Dunno. I just couldn't get over the hump, but I have all the cards in your list so I'll have to test it out.
permalinkcontextfull comments (28)[Discussion] What are you playing, and why? by RepostFrom4chanin spikes[–]moderatemormon 0 points1 point2 points 24 days ago (0 children)I'd be very interested in your results. Last time I played at modern night I had Karn dropped on turn 3 twice.
That along with the stupid wurmcoil engine and mindslaver just wrecked me in the face.
permalinkcontextfull comments (68)[Standard] Convoke and Inspired: A Match Made in Heaven by General_Officer_Ragain Magicdeckbuilding[–]moderatemormon 1 point2 points3 points 24 days ago (0 children)Unless you're desperate for win conditions I'd keep her at 2 max or even a 1 of. Without playing it a bit it's hard to say what to cut, but looking at the curve and usefulness of the cards I'd say shields is the obvious target, a sun guide might be worth looking at as well. permalinkcontextfull comments (13)[Standard] Convoke and Inspired: A Match Made in Heaven by General_Officer_Ragain Magicdeckbuilding[–]moderatemormon 2 points3 points4 points 25 days ago (0 children)Seems mid-range-control-y
Elspeth seems like a natural fit in this shell. permalinkcontextfull comments (13)OFFICIAL [MOCK DRAFT AND RATE MY TEAM] THREAD: TUESDAY, 08/26/2014 by FFBotin fantasyfootball[–]moderatemormon 2 points3 points4 points 25 days ago (0 children)To me it makes a significant difference. In a PPR league this team seems very very strong. In a standard league, I still think it's a good team with the potential to compete, but I feel the need to scrutinize the draft choices a bit more.
It's hard to know for certain without seeing the other teams' picks, but I can't see myself taking both Thomas and Graham at the turn in a standard league. The top RBs are so few and far between that I like my chances of getting late value at the WR position a lot more.
Obviously the draft worked out ok, and Bell, Rice, and Moreno all have great upside. This thread is supposed to be about honest feedback, and while I think the result is fine there's a solid chance this could have been a better team with an elite RB at one of the first two picks. With luck Graham gives you a serious advantage every week and at least one of your bench RBs produces like a strong #2.
In a PPR I feel this draft is an A- or B+. Standard scoring I see it more as a B- or C+. But that's simply my opinion :D
Your feedback post is still great.
permalinkcontextfull comments (1508)I've been making casual decks for some time and now I am looking for my first "good" deck. What should I be looking at? by humanlvl1in Magicdeckbuilding[–]moderatemormon 1 point2 points3 points 25 days ago (0 children)This is actually pretty great. Would recommend.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a communication device, such as a wireless telephone, having a plurality of independent, differently-configured keypads functionally connected to a single display panel. As used herein, the term �functionally connected� means that input from one of the elements in question affects the other element. In the context of a keypad and display panel, input from the keypad (e.g., pressing a key or rocking a joy button) affects what is displayed on the display panel (e.g., displaying a letter or number, navigating a menu, or selecting a function). Of course, the �connection� between such elements can be somewhat indirect. In the case of a keypad and display panel, a display output circuit may change what appears on the display panel in response to input from the keypad, for example. Over the past decade, the number of wireless telephone users has grown exponentially. As the number of users has grown, the demand for increased cell phone functionality has also grown. For example, wireless telephones can now be used to send and receive text messages and e-mail messages. Further, many wireless telephones have video games, calculators and other electronic programs incorporated therein. On prior art wireless telephones, each of the programs and functions is controlled using a single standard alpha-numeric telephone keypad, or a single alpha-numeric telephone keypad that has reconfigurable keys. However, because of the aforementioned variety of programs and functions, a single standard keypad or a reconfigurable alpha-numeric keypad is not user friendly and limits functionality. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The present invention will hereinafter be described in conjunction with the appended drawing figures wherein like numerals denote like elements. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a wireless communication device in accordance with an embodiment of the invention wherein the front housing and keypads are arranged in a nested configuration. FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the wireless communication device of FIG. 1 wherein the front housing has been slid in the widthwise direction to expose a QWERTY keypad. FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the wireless communication device of FIG. 1 wherein the front housing has been slid in the lengthwise direction to expose a telephone keypad. FIG. 4 is a perspective view of a wireless communication device in accordance with another embodiment of the invention wherein the front housing has been slid in the widthwise direction to expose a video game keypad.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION The ensuing detailed description provides exemplary embodiments only, and is not intended to limit the scope, applicability, or configuration of the invention. Rather, the ensuing detailed description of the exemplary embodiments will provide those skilled in the art with an enabling description for implementing the exemplary embodiments of the invention. It being understood that various changes may be made in the function and arrangement of elements without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, as set forth in the appended claims. In addition, reference numerals that are introduced in the specification in association with a particular drawing figure may be repeated in other figures without additional description in the specification in order to provide context for other features. A wireless communication device is shown in FIGS. 1-3 and is designated generally by reference numeral 10. The wireless communication device 10 generally comprises a front housing 12, a first keypad housing 14 and second keypad housing 16. Each of the keypad housings 14, 16 houses a respective keypad 15, 17. Although the wireless communication device is illustrated and described herein as having only two independent keypad housings, it will be appreciated by one of ordinary skill in the art that the device 10 could be provided with more than two independent keypad housings without departing from the scope of the present invention. The front housing 12 and keypad housings 14, 16 can be arranged in various configurations by sliding the front housing 12 and keypad housings 14, 16 transversely in parallel planes relative to one another. In the �nested configuration� illustrated in FIG. 1, the front housing 12, first keypad housing 14 and second keypad housing 16 are arranged in a stacked, overlapping configuration with the front housing 12 on top, the first keypad housing 14 on the bottom, and the second keypad housing 16 in the middle. In the configurations illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3, the front housing 12 has been moved to an �extended position� relative to the keypad housings 14, 16 so that one of the keypads 15, 17 is exposed for functional operation by a user. In the extended positions shown in FIGS. 2-3, the front housing 12 is arranged in a parallel plane that is substantially non-overlapping with at least one keypad (15 or 17) so that the keys of the keypad (15 or 17) are exposed and physically accessible by a user. It should be noted that the term �keys�, as used in the specification and claims may include keys, buttons, and the like. In the extended positions shown in FIGS. 2-3, the front housing 12 overlaps the exposed keypad along a short length that connects the front housing 12 to the keypad housing (14 or 16). Referring to FIG. 1, the communication device 10 has a width (W) and a length (L) that is greater than the width. Each of the keypad housings 14, 16 and the front housing 12 is generally-planar and rectangular. Each also has approximately the same length and width, but different thicknesses. The communication device 10 may be cellular telephone, a cordless telephone, a personal digital assistant, a wireless text device, or the like. The front housing 12 includes a faceplate 19, an earpiece loudspeaker 18, a microphone 20, display panel 22, and a plurality of softkeys 24 arranged in the configuration shown in FIG. 1. The loudspeaker 18, microphone 20, and softkeys 24 comprise components that are well known to one of ordinary skill in the art of wireless telephones. The front housing 12 houses transceiver circuitry that provides a wireless communication link with a base station, wireless local area network, a cellular system, and/or a cordless telephone. The illustrated display panel 22 has a generally rectangular shape and has the same orientation as the front housing 12. In other words, the length (LD) and width (WD) extend parallel to the length (L) and width (W), respectively, of the communication device 10. Unlike typical wireless communication devices, the front housing 12 does not include a standard telephone keypad. Therefore, the display panel 22 can be made larger, compared to conventional wireless communication devices, without increasing footprint of the front housing 12. Referring to FIG. 1, the display panel 22 extends along at least 50% of the length of the front housing 12 so that extended alpha-numeric messages can be displayed on the display panel 22 in both landscape and portrait orientations. The display panel 22 may comprise a conventional display, such as a liquid crystal display (LCD). The front housing, or one of the keypad housings, houses circuitry for receiving, processing and generating control signals for the display panel 22 such that text messages are automatically displayed. These messages, such as alpha-numeric characters 34, are displayed on the display panel 22 in the same orientation, either landscape or portrait, and in the same direction, as the graphic representations on the keys of the exposed keypad. For example, referring to FIG. 2, the characters 34 are displayed in a landscape orientation and in the same orientation as the keys on the keypad 17 exposed in this figure, whereas the characters are shown displayed in a portrait orientation and in the same orientation as the keypad 15 exposed in FIG. 3. Each of the keypads 15, 17 is functionally connected to the display panel 22 on the front housing 12 and has a key configuration that is different than the other. The first, or telephone, keypad 15 has a standard telephone keypad configuration as seen in FIG. 3, and the second keypad 17 has a text entry keypad, illustrated as a Roman alphabet typewriter or computer keyboard (commonly referred to as �QWERTY�) configuration as seen in FIG. 2. However, the first, but preferably the second, keypad 15, 17 may comprise any other known keypad configuration such as the game keypad configuration 115 provided in the alternative embodiment illustrated in FIG. 4. The second, or text keypad 17, can be any suitable text entry device optimized for entry of text in a desired language, such as Chinese, Japanese or Korean. By providing a single common display panel 22 functionally connected to each of the keypads 15, 17, the cost of the communication device 10 is reduced compared to a providing a respective display panel for each keypad 15, 17. The front housing 12 and keypad housings 14, 16 telescopically slide transversely relative to one another in overlapping, parallel planes. In the nested configuration, each of the keypads 15, 17 is concealed underneath the front housing 12. Each of the keypads 15, 17 can be selectively exposed by sliding the front housing 12 in the lengthwise or widthwise direction to an extended position. Referring to FIG. 2, the second or middle keypad 17 is exposed by sliding the front housing 12 in the widthwise direction. Referring to FIG. 3, the first or bottom keypad 15 is exposed by sliding the front housing 12 in the lengthwise direction. Because of the manner in which the front housing 12 and keypad housings 14, 16 are connected, lengthwise movement of the front housing 12 simultaneously drags or slides the second keypad housing 16 lengthwise to expose the first keypad 15. As described above, the display panel 22 automatically displays the characters on the display panel 22 in the same orientation and direction as the keys on the exposed keypad (15 or 17). The first keypad 15 is exposed only when the front housing 12 moves from the nested configuration along a first path of travel, and the second keypad 17 is exposed only when the front housing 12 moves from the nested configuration along a second path of travel different than the first path of travel. The paths of travel are linear and transverse to one another. For example, only the middle, landscape-oriented keypad 17 is exposed when the front housing 12 slides from the nested configuration in the widthwise direction, while only the bottom, portrait-oriented keypad 15 is exposed when the front housing 12 slides from the nested configuration in the lengthwise direction. However, it should be appreciated by those skilled in the art that this configuration can be reversed without departing from the scope of the invention. In other words, the front housing 12 and keypad housings 14, 16 could be arranged so that the landscape-oriented keypad 17 is exposed when the front housing 12 slides in the lengthwise direction and the portrait-oriented keypad 15 is exposed when the front housing 12 slides in the widthwise direction. In the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 1-3, the softkeys 24 are functional when either keypad 15, 17 is exposed. Further, the softkeys 24 could be functionally connected to the display panel 22 to control different functions depending on whether the first 15 or second 17 keypad is exposed. Referring to FIGS. 2-3, the front housing 12 and second keypad 17 are connected by opposed pairs of cooperating slides arranged on the widthwise-extending edges of the front housing 12 and second keypad housing 16. The slides limit movement of the front housing so that only one keypad can be exposed at a time. The widthwise edges of the front housing 12 and second keypad housing 16 have cooperating C-shaped guides 26, 28. In a similar manner, the first keypad housing 14 and second keypad housing 16 are connected by opposed pairs of cooperating slides arranged on the lengthwise-extending edges of the first 14 and second 16 keypad housings. The lengthwise edges of the first keypad housing 14 and second keypad housing 16 have cooperating C-shaped guides 30, 32. Other types of guide arrangements, such as tongue and groove arrangements, can be used. The communication device 10 is portable, and such devices typically employ a battery (not shown). It is envisioned the battery will be advantageously located within the housing 14 of the lowest keypad 15, to facilitate access for changing the battery. Alternatively, the battery may be housed within the front housing 12 or the intermediate keypad housing 16. A wireless communication device 110 in accordance with another embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG. 4. Similar to the previous embodiment, the wireless communication device generally comprises a front housing 112, first keypad housing 114 and second keypad housing 116. The front housing 112 includes a faceplate 119, an earpiece loudspeaker 118, a microphone 120, display panel 122, and a plurality of softkeys 124 arranged in the configuration shown in FIG. 4. The front housing 112 and keypad housings 114, 116 are similar in construction to the wireless communication device 10 described above except that the second keypad 117 has a game pad configuration instead of a QWERTY keypad. The game pad configuration is designed to be used to play games and includes a 4-way toggle switch or joystick. While the principles of the invention have been described above in connection with illustrated embodiments, it is to be clearly understood that this description is made only by way of example and not as a limitation of the scope of the invention.
