MoreA landmark project on everyday power shows how far we have to travel to become a nation of powerful people.
MoreThis project will feature a 'People's Inquiry' to explore people's attitudes to the use of their personal information. It will use the outcomes from the deliberative groups to develop practical ideas for matching public expectations and personal information policy.
MoreConversation has long been the cornerstone of our society. New technologies enable us to speak to people anytime, anywhere. However, there is growing concern – both in the UK and elsewhere - that we are talking less than we used to. This work suggests that this is a misconception and that the issue is actually much more complex.
MoreThis work examines the implications of current trends in the English Language for policy agendas. Run in association with Cambridge Assessment, and ESOL Examinations at the University of Cambridge, it will identify not only areas in which policy makers will have to change to meet the challenges posed by the emergence of variants of English - Englishes - but also how government and others can work with providers to take advantage of the many opportunites that 'Englishes' present...
MoreFollowing the recent public diplomacy review, now seems like a good time to revisit what we mean by cultural diplomacy and the ways in which culture helps to deliver Britain's foreign, developmental, and sustainability objectives. This project asks what this means for cultural institutions and whether they could play a role in fostering public debate and engagement. It also set out a new and practical framework for policy makers and practitioners in the UK and beyond.
MoreDemos has undertaken futures work with a wide range of organisations – helping groups from trade unions to international security bodies plan ahead.
MoreThe way young people use technology outside school is changing and so are the ways they learn. This project, funded by the NCSL, aims to explore how schools should respond to children's informal learning with digital media such as games consoles, the internet and mobile phones.
MoreWe are examining emerging approaches to public service delivery from across the globe to understand what a new wave of reform might look like in New Zealand, and to examine how unions can take a proactive role in helping their members adapt and thrive in the future.
MoreThis project looks at the role social housing providers can play in helping people back to independent living following a period in hospital.
MoreDemos is currently looking at how social housing providers can act as co-ordinators and hubs for support and earlier intervention for their clients.
MoreThis project will focus on school-to-work transition: how our education and training systems are preparing young people for employment.
MoreThe London Olympics are on track to regenerate a vast swathe of East London, turning a poisonsed industrial site into the biggest new park since Hyde Park, but how will Londoners really benefit and have the goals been met?
MoreSmart city technologies promise to make cities more efficient, liveable and productive. There are real implementation challenges on introducing new technologies at scale in an established city. What are the costs and benefits for London?
MoreDespite being one of the most prosperous cities in the world, London has among the UK's highest rates of worklessness: one in three working age Londoners is out-of-work. What will be the impact of welfare reforms on London and how London can get the best from this new system? How can models of localism and devolution boost employment in the capital?
MoreThis project focusses on access to higher education in London's schools and boroughs and looks at high skills as a key economic driver.
MoreThe Thames is one of London's greatest assets but also presents one of its more pressing challenges. How can improvements to the quality of the architecture and public spaces, and more use of the banks and the river itself be financed, managed and delivered?
MoreThe plans for East London Tech City have generated a good deal of excitement. But the way ahead is far from clear. This project looks at how these plans can be best achieved, by comparing East London to other international tech based regenerations and by talking directly to entreprenuers.

Tucked away in a grove of towering red and white pine trees, the Character Challenge Course pits teams of patrons against a series of obstacles, fostering confidence, teamwork, and communication skills. A collection of low-ropes activities challenges teams with trust falls, games, and role-playing exercises while remaining a short distance from the ground. High-ropes challenges, meanwhile, soar to heights of up to 35 feet, and include cloud-scraping ladders, wobbly bridges, and the Leap of Faith, in which patrons must scale a 25-foot pole and then leap to a trapeze bar five feet away before lowering themselves earthward. To further facilitate team unity, groups gather after completing each obstacle to discuss how the course's mental and physical trials can be applied to daily struggles in cooperating with others at work or while opening a pickle jar.

The company has two locations in the Land of 10,000 Lakes, and both stock a wide variety of vessels and apparel to make days on the water exciting, stylish, and safe. First-timers can get their feet wet by renting a paddleboard, wake surfer, wakeboard, or kayak for up to seven days. MN Surf Co. also sells boards, plus wetsuits and tees suited for the beach.
Your Boat Club helps people enjoy the benefits of boat ownership without hassles such as towing, cleaning, and repairs. The club maintains a fleet of more than 70 boats, including leisurely pontoons, fishing boats up to 18 feet long, and runabouts with powerful engines that contain up to 300 tiny horses. Members need only make online reservations for one of these vessels, arrive at their dock of choice, and speed away with a fully fueled and clean boat. Seven different lakes set the stage for these aquatic excursions, giving members—based on the membership level they choose—many boating options. On any given day, Your Boat Club's vessels tow water skis across White Bear Lake and ferry anglers into Lake Minnetonka, where largemouth bass, bluegill, and goldfish crackers swim through 14,528 acres of water.

Model 97436 500 W Oriel® Flood Exposure Source, 6 x 6 inch Beam Size (9.5 inch high pedestal not shown).
We offer 500 and 1000 W Flood Exposure Sources for the near UV (350 - 450 nm), mid UV (260 - 320 nm) and deep UV (220 - 260 nm). NUV is designed to expose most photoresists, MUV is used for polymer cross-linking and novel resists, and DUV for deep ultraviolet studies. Our illuminators irradiate samples from 2.13 x 2.13 inches up to 10 x 10 inches (54x54 to 254x254 mm).
The spectral output of the illuminator is determined by three factors:
NUV sources run an Hg lamp, use a BK 7 glass lens (which does not transmit below 350 nm), and have the appropriate dichroic mirrors. MUV and DUV sources run an HgXe lamp, use a UV grade fused silica lens (which transmits down to 200 nm), and have the appropriate dichroics. If you need the flexibility to work in all regions, select a DUV source and purchase additional dichroic mirrors for the respective regions.
Fig. 1 shows the beam path of the housing. An efficient ellipsoidal reflector, coated with AlSiO for the NUV or enhanced Rhodium for MUV and DUV systems, collects up to 70% of the arc lamp output. A 45° primary dichroic mirror spectrally reflects the light after passing through a proprietary design beam homogenizer. The homogenizer, or optical integrator, is similar to a compound fly's eye. It scrambles the arc lamp's non-uniform irradiance to produce many diverging beams. These diverging beams overlap at the collimating lens to produce a highly uniform, collimated beam at the work plane.A robust electronic split-blade shutter system is located after the homogenizer. It consists of a highly accurate and repeatable shutter, and a shutter power supply. It may be opened and closed manually with a switch on the housing side panel or via the 68955 Hand-Held Switch. For automated exposure control, we offer the 68951 Digital Exposure Controller or 68945 Digital Timer. Upon request, the housing may also be wired to operate the shutter via a computer logic level.Our 500 W Hg NUV housings contain a built-in "soft start" ignitor. Designed exclusively for Hg lamps, this ignitor provides high voltage ramp for reliable and low stress ignition. The result is neglible EMI. 500 and 1000 W Hg(Xe) housings contain a high voltage ignitor, necessary to ignite this lamp type. These ignitors apply a high voltage (25 kV) pulsed discharge across the lamp electrodes. Close proximity to the lamp reduces the path length the pulse must travel, facilitating ignition and reducing EMI.Each housing contains three interlock systems. Opening the housing door will trigger an electronic interlock switch to automatically interrupt power to the system. This prevents inadvertent operator exposure to the lamp. A thermal interlock shuts down the system if the temperature exceeds the level for safe operation. A third interlock shuts down the system if the lamp's cooling fan fails.
The NUV sources run Hg short arc lamps; these contain a precise amount of mercury and either xenon or argon, which act as a starter gas. Strong mercury lines through the ultraviolet and visible wavelengths dominate their output spectrum. The 365 nm line makes it ideal for use in the NUV.The MUV and DUV sources operate Hg(Xe) short arc lamps, which are similar to Hg lamps but contain more xenon gas than just the starter gas. The additional xenon enhances the short wave UV making it ideal for use below 350 nm. We supply ozone free Hg(Xe) lamps with the NUV and MUV sources, and UV enhanced models for the DUV models.
The 68951 is a light intensity controller and digital timer in one. It interfaces with the power supply to provide a constant level of output to within ±1%. Although our supplies are highly regulated to operate the lamp at constant power, the light output will change over time due to lamp electrode erosion, gas absorption or desorption, aging and lamp operating temperatures. The 68951 compensates for these factors.The Digital Timer portion of the 68951 (which is also available as a stand alone device under model 68945 controls the split-blade shutter and is recommended for accurate and consistent timed exposures. It provides a TTL output to the shutter driver. The 68951 is capable of exposure times from 10 ms to 9999 hours, in increments as short as 10 ms. However, the mechanical response time of the shutter in our Exposure Sources limits the minimum exposure time to 100 ms, and the shortest interval between exposures, to 80 ms.
These sources produce a specific broadband spectral output. Optional narrowband filter assemblies enable you to isolate specific, narrowband outputs, such as 365 nm (i-line), and 436 nm (g-line). For 500 W Sources, purchase the 87032 Filter Mount; 1000 W sources include the filter mount.
You may wish to monitor the intensity and uniformity of your output beam, especially if you have chosen not to purchase a Digital Exposure Controller. Also, during installation of a new lamp, you should align your lamp for optimal irradiance. In order to do this, you need a power meter and probe for your specific wavelength region, to determine when you have the lamp in the correct position. The 84410 is a hand-held power meter with direct reading in any optical units and user-friendly alpha-numeric display.A sampling of the simple operating buttons is:
These sources, particularly the DUV and MUV systems, emit dangerous levels of UV radiation. Always wear Ultraviolet Safety Equipment like protective clothing, gloves and a faceshield when working around these sources.
All Oriel Light Sources are shipped with a one-year warranty. Now, you can extend the warranty period by an additional year with our Extended Care Plan. Please contact a Sales Engineer for complete details.

Jonesville, Sims Baseball
Sims capitalized on a few critical fielding errors during Thursday's middle school baseball game at Jonesville en route to a 8-3 win over the Wildcats. Caleb Goodwin got the nod for the Tigers and allowed two hits and two runs during his 4 2/3 innings of work. He walked eight and struck out three before being relieved by Bryan Good.
Sims scored on a passed ball in the top of the first inning to take the early lead and added two runs in the third on an error and a fielder's choice. Smart base running helped Jonesville scratch a run across in the bottom of the inning but the Tigers plated six in the fourth to take an 8-1 lead. Jonesville added one in the bottom of the fourth and one in the sixth but came up short when the game was called due to the 2-hour time limit. Matthew Caldwell led Sims' hitting with a pair of singles. Caleb Vanderford, Good Markevius Glenn contributed a hit each for Sims. Peyton Blackwell went 2-3 with a walk for Jonesville and Dijamon McDonald went 1-3 with a RBI.
Sims, Lockhart Softball
The Sims softball team continued its hot streak on Thursday with back to back wins over Lockhart Middle.
Rebecca Lee pitched three shutout innings to help the Tigers to a 17-0 win in game one. Lee struck out nine batters.
Leading hitters for Sims
Abbie Valentine was 3 for 4 with 2 doubles.
Jazmyne Boyd was 3 for 3 with a double.
Cassie Heatherly was 2 for 2 with a triple.
Katelyn Petty doubled and Lee added a hit.
In game two, Sims defeated Lockhart 20-2. Taylor Stines got the win from the mound and allowed two hits with five strikeouts. She helped herself at the plate with a 3-4 performance. Elizabeth Parks smacked a solo home run to lead Lockhart's offense and Jazmyne Boyd homered for Sims.
Abbie Valentine went 3 for 3 with two doubles for the Tigers. Me'Aria Thompson was 2 for 2, Katelyn Petty was 2 for 3, Rebecca Lee had a triple and Riley Shropshire was 1 for 2 with a double.
Lockhart Baseball
The Lockhart baseball team fell twice on the road this week. On Wednesday the Devils suffered a 14-3 loss to Spartanburg, then fell 11-8 at Campobello on Thursday.
Ethan Bailey led Lockhart at the plate with a 2-3 performance against Campobello.
Lockhart's record on the year is 1-2-2. On Monday, the Red Devils travel to Jonesville for a 4:30 game before returning home to face Spartanburg Christian on Thursday at 5 p.m.

For some reason, 784 (3.8%) odd people think that the Blues will still finish the top of the table in the NZ conference. And only 4.2% think the Highlanders will.
As a Blues fan, I find this odd that there are more people still who haven't given up on the Blues than those that still believe in the Highlanders.

That Blues team are god dam shambles. I don't know why everyone is so sympathetic to Pat Lam, he is a terrible terrible coach.
You can keep Weepu, doubt he would want to come back and sit on the bench watching TJ being picked as first choice Half back over his aging overweight arse.

Yeah the good ol days are gone. "Crew sessions" now pretty much consist of Scotty and myself. Kris (Kyo) is over in the USA atm having the time of his life by the looks. Not too sure what Gilly is upto these days. Only see the Don's on facebook, don't think either of them have turned their PS3's on in months.

I talk to DonMatteo pretty regularly.life just gets busy. School, work, social things. Makes it hard to play games together. We played portal 2 co op together and every now and then jump in rock band or some other random game. Were good mates it's just hard to fit in gaming together. When I'm free, he isn't and vice versa. I assume it's the same with all the other guys too

Used too. Think Lil Don may play a bit more but Big D hasn't been on in a fair while. That being said, I've been playing more Forza on Xbox than PS3 lately (only playing UFC3 on PS3 atm) and now that Diablo3 is out nothing else is really getting a look in.
Yeah I knew you and Matt were good mates, see your banter on FB. Life does tend to get in the way. I've started getting out on the road for work so I'm spening less and less time on the forums. We still try to keep the Thursday session tradition going but it only ever seems to be Scotty and myself involved. Guess we'll have to wait for Burnout Paradise 2 to get everyone back together

Phusion Releases Passenger Enterprise 4
Phusion Passenger 4 offers improved scalability, Python WSGI support, multithreading, and better error diagnostics.
Phusion has released Phusion Passenger Enterprise 4.0 beta 1. According to the website, this version includes improved scalability and concurrency as well as dramatically improved internal architecture.
According to the project website, "Phusion Passenger is an Apache and Nginx module for deploying Ruby and Python web applications. It has a strong focus on ease of use, stability and performance. Phusion Passenger is built on top of tried-and-true, battle-hardened Unix technologies, yet at the same time introduces innovations not found in most traditional Unix servers."
The changes in Phusion Passenger 4 include support for multiple Ruby versions, Python WSGI support, multithreading, improved zero-copy architecture, better error diagnostics, and support for JRuby, and Rubinius. This means you can now run multiple Ruby versions at the same time in the same Phusion Passenger instance. Additionally, Phusion Passenger's I/O handler has been completely rewritten and is now "evented" just like Nginx and Node.js.
Phusion Passenger 4 also introduces real-time response buffering. Unlike traditional response buffering, Phusion Passenger sends data to the client immediately, while still relieving the application from slow clients, the website said.

I understand the impulse for America to do something in Syria.

But theres something disgraceful about our tendency to wax moralistic about preventing suffering in countries in which we have not yet intervened while we brazenly ignore the suffering we have helped cause in the countries in which we have. If were going to debate intervention in Syria, lets also debate intervention in Afghanistan and Iraq, countries where we have accrued grave moral obligations, obligations that dont end just because weve decided its easier to focus our attention someplace else.

-- dirty Harry has his own words below a big hole in her defense she has changed her story about the day of the murder and he's got three times came to three times.
Prosecutors now trying to convince a jury she is in addition to being a murder a serial liar and they're using videotapes of her police interrogation to do it.
Two people.
-- -- -- It's just so far -- can't believe it.
Why would they do this what -- they argue about what did Jason.
Didn't he tell us.
-- he didn't say -- Why Americans -- and I can tell they have.
-- -- -- And be easier because of your face.
The company calls fairness and I'm asking you now.
And her.
It was black heading into the bunker and definitely there's been.
Former LAPD detective mark -- joins this Canadian market.
-- -- -- -- Market preparing to interrogator.
In -- -- Prospective defendant homicide case when he still.
Well you know certainly you you can't bluff.
Or you can't present anything that you can't produce that evidence because in the suspect knows how much you don't know -- sort of how much you do know.
This interrogators detective floors I believe he was very good at bringing.
The suspect along from a phone.
Not committing to anything letting her commit herself the destroying.
Her story little by little instead of dumping honor.
And then it just like this video of the interrogation.
-- brought her to a point where she really gave up the ghost okay I'm -- I believe you know I'm there I believe your evidence and now.
This would have been the perfect time to say it was self defense not after a government attorney and I normally get arrested.
They said that's what -- most of you don't realize it's often times not so much what you say during interrogation.
As a suspect but what you.
Don't say mean as you say it would have been a good time to say the self defense.
You know that apparently is coming later but it it's what you don't say that can sometimes be particularly damning.
I ask you read the autopsy report.
Your thoughts about certain how this -- when this homicide occurred.
What went first.
Well I -- I listen to doctor Baden and and we have talked about this tonight and of course.
You know I've thought about this read the site you agree with doctor -- completely I believe the -- came first while the victim was in the shower.
Not paying attention.
Didn't even see the suspect.
Gun shot he was somewhat incapacitated whether completely down on all fours.
Are partially leaning in the shower -- the stab -- started.
He puts up some -- defense maybe just from the pain.
That's why we don't see really great defense wounds from him because he's much bigger and much stronger.
And then obviously at the end of he is not dying quick enough so you have that -- sliced the throat in the carotid artery which.
Now he he's come to the world.
I if I ever going to kill this man and he didn't let's say -- shot him first is your scenario -- didn't die.
-- a shot him again I prime wouldn't switch weapons meant to -- that's what I I don't give because when you switch weapons you got to push some of the doubt that he's not dead he's gonna come out you whether it's gunshot or knife.
And sort of curious whether you know if there -- warm you know but -- have -- and is it more to the story surely she's -- what -- told three inconsistent defenses so to me -- highly suspect ever heard the evidence but I highly suspect -- -- guilty party.
But I wonder if there wasn't somebody else there I just don't see this which of weapons and.
Well Greta you know it's really Smart that you picked up on that I mean really sharp because.
In her story she says when the two people came and they tried to shoot her.
But the gun didn't go off and I think there is your answer -- your question the second time she tried to fire the gun did not go off.
And that is where she got that part of her story for the two intruders they came in she went to the other weapon because the gun didn't go off now -- Five inch knife.
Question yeah.
When every night you almost don't go to murdered though the one weapon they don't have a backup plan -- don't bring very odd numbered a second weapon in their big hip pocket -- it's possible that.
Well -- you know and doctor -- touch on this this is a rage killing this is I'm going to embarrass the victim my.
My focus on this is to show everybody and show myself just how mad I -- -- him.
So she could have she brought both weapons she also -- -- both weapons.
So that's a that's fairly and -- right all unto itself so she was going to do this regardless of what the -- did she was going to humiliate.
You see there's some a lot of relationships whether it's homosexual.
Or not you see it when this relationship has reached a point where one person is going to kill the other person it's embarrassment and -- Well -- between the jury may get that -- More information if she decides to take the witness stand although I'm sure that that -- -- You know Phil and all the blanks but may be an effective cross examination by the prosecutor will detective -- -- --

Flanker Nic Cudd has penned a new two-year deal at Rodney Parade with the Dragons in the RaboDirect PRO12.
The 24-year-old arrived at Rodney Parade from Llanelli in September on a one-season contract because of a back row injury crisis.
With his high tackle-rate and breakdown prowess, the West Walian has proved to be a success story. He will make his 18th appearance of the campaign against Leinster on Friday and has been rewarded with a new Dragons deal.
"I was given an opportunity to prove myself as a professional and hopefully I have done that," said Cudd.
"We haven't had the best of results this season but I think it is going well for me on a personal front, I have had plenty of games and feel that I am improving as a player.
"Over the past few months I have improved in terms of physicality and carrying the ball.
"I am delighted the Nic has extended his contract with us. He is an excellent addition and a valued member of the squad," said Dragons boss Rob Beale.

When my physician discovered I was taking at least 27 regular aspirin tablets a day, he was horrified. Then he prescribed Lodine (etodolac).
- Bio | E-mail | Recent columns
Decades ago, doctors relied on aspirin to ease inflammation. In acute flare-ups of rheumatic fever, the dose might go up to 24 pills. But at such high levels the drug can cause ringing in the ears and serious stomach ulcers.
Then many nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) were developed to relieve pain. They include diclofenac (Cataflam, Voltaren), etodolac (Lodine), fenoprofen (Nalfon), ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil), indomethacin (Indocin), nabumetone (Relafen) and naproxen (Aleve, Anaprox, Naprosyn).
Like aspirin, such drugs can cause stomach irritation and bleeding ulcers. They may also raise blood pressure. There is growing concern that some may also increase the risk of heart attacks or strokes, as Vioxx does.
I use a natural approach to combat allergies: a neti pot to wash my sinuses, stinging nettle (Urtica dioica) capsules and daily vacuuming to rid my bedding of dust mites.
Your approach combines several traditional remedies. Nose cleansing with salt water is popular from Scandinavia to India, where a neti pot, which looks like an Aladdin's lamp, is used to pour water into the nostrils. Stinging nettle is used in Germany to ease allergy symptoms.

Introducing Stevie Gee. Surf-punk illustrator. Family guy. Looking at Stevie Gee's work is never dull. His illustration borrows heavily from rockabilly and trash-punk aesthetics and gets mixed up with surfing images and old movie posters along the way. His work is never without a sense of humour, just like the man himself as Lacoste L!VE discovers!
It's a pleasure to meet you Stevie. Can you please introduce yourself into the Dictaphone?
Hi, my name is Stevie Gee, for the past 10 years or so I have created images and designed stuff when I have been asked to in a professional manner. It's a pleasure to meet you too.
How did you get started?
I got kicked out of the Marines for being too hardcore. Drawing was my only other skill.
What was your big break or defining moment?
Getting married and having children when I was pretty young.
How did your collaboration with Lacoste L!VE come about?
They kindly asked me and I happily said YES! Lacoste is an iconic brand with a rich heritage, it is lovely that they thought my work would suit them.
Is this the first time you've collaborated with a fashion brand?
No, I've done quite a few, actually.
Was it a challenge to fit your style with Lacoste L!VE?
No I just did my own thing, I have to admit I was surprised when my image of a man punching a crocodile in the face was accepted!
A very open brief then...
Yeah I suppose! They knew I love surfing and seemed keen that that was a theme for my collection, but I wanted to play with their crocodile so I combined those two ideas, everyone seemed happy with the results.
Did you know that this issue focuses on Tokyo? Have you ever been?
No, not yet... I am super keen to visit if you fancy helping me out with that one? I do more work in Japan than almost anywhere else but I have yet to visit myself. I am part of a Frisbee/ t-shirt show coming up soon with GASBOOK tees. Designing a Frisbee was fun, my one glows in the dark.
Do you see any similarities between Tokyo and Lacoste L!VE?
Tokyo seems like a place where boundaries can get pushed. Lacoste LIVE seems to have that same vibe, doing what they like and making interesting or unexpected collaborations, so yeah.
Do you have any exciting new projects you would like to share with us?
Yeah, I'm currently designing a motorbike with SIDEBURN magazine here in England. Right now I'm also working on the record covers for new band SWIM DEEP, watch out for them, I think they gonna be big!
What inspires your work?
And when you're not working?
Keeping the family happy and having fun times all the times. Much love and wild pleasures!

Be Kind to the Earth - Green Curb AppealThe first impression for any home is the front yard. To make a lasting impression, any project should be created with the needs of the homeowner in mind. Are their existing elements that need to be used, is space an issue, is there a look, style or color scheme that should be used? By incorporating these items into the design, you will not only have a functional front yard, but one that offers curb appeal as well. |
Before |
After |
When the Sobocinskis were looking to update their front yard, they had a list of
items that they wanted to do to make their unmanageable hillside a beautiful
entrance to their home. Existing trees and stairs were to be incorporated with
additional plants and landscaping to soften the overall look of the home.
They wanted a retaining wall that could give them an actual front yard area
using natural stone or if natural stone was not in the budget, something that
would look natural. To them it was important to use a product that was not
harmful to the environment, a "Green" recycled material.
After doing a little research and talking to local contractors, they found that building their retaining wall using a concrete product was the way to go. There were several options from size, color and style to choose from. During their research they found a new "Green" product that was available from Allan Block - the AB Fieldstone Collection. This seemed to fit their plans and budget for having the look of natural stone and be an Eco-Friendly product. |
Once the product was selected and the design completed, it was time to get to work.
The lighter-weight two-piece AB Fieldstone units made the installation faster and
easier than their original natural stone choice. Building terraced walls in place of
one tall wall, allowed new planting areas to help soften the look of the landscape.
No special or extra blocks were needed to build corners or curves and by ending the
walls with curves into the existing stairways, additional planting areas were created.
AB Fieldstone was such a very user-friendly product that in less than 1 week this home was able to go from an unmanageable hillside with no space, to an impressive front yard that is the envy of the neighborhood. |
Investing in the Outdoors - The Latest in Landscape Trends |
The state of the housing market has made some changes in the way people are looking at their living spaces. Rather than moving,
many homeowners are opting to stay in their homes and invest in upgrading their existing living spaces. This trend has pushed to
the outdoors as people are staying in more often and entertaining at home has increased the need for more livable outdoor space.
Homeowners want to create a sense of place for their family, friends, and neighbors to enjoy outside. So what are some of the hottest trends in investing in your outdoors? Living and Building GreenA lot of emphasis has been put on being green or environmentally friendly recently, as we all look for ways to conserve, replenish and otherwise help the environment we live in. While homeowners are looking for more low-maintenance water friendly plants and landscaping, they are also looking for more ways to improve their spaces while still shrinking the size of their carbon footprint. This is where new "green" products and practices have an opportunity to soar.Allan Block products have always been made to be good for the environment, using our environmentally safe products to replace millions of feet of treated timber walls, and keeping millions more from ever being installed in the first place. Allan Block has taken this one step further with AB Fieldstone. AB Fieldstone , a new retaining wall product from Allan Block, is a perfect choice for homeowners who still need a retaining wall structure but want to be more "green". This two-piece system is made with recycled materials, has a natural stone appearance and is easy to install, making it Green, Natural, and Friendly - that is AB Fieldstone. This revolutionary product is just another way homeowners can reduce their carbon footprint, while still maintaining a beautiful and lasting outdoor living space. Outdoor KitchensThis leads us to the next trend - Outdoor Kitchens are much more than just a barbecue grill and a lawn chair. With the combination of entertaining and gourmet cooking becoming all the rage, it is only natural for the evolution of the outdoor kitchen. Homeowners today are looking for the complete package - kitchens with counters and bars, dining areas, places for not only cooking but entertaining as well.Using the AB Courtyard Collection products to construct these outdoor eating and entertaining centers keeps the job beautiful and easy to build. Because of the block's unique versatility, each outdoor kitchen can be customized to fit the space and style the homeowner is looking for. Seating/Entertaining AreasAs this trend for moving the indoors out continues, there is a need to design these "living rooms without walls" to be just a warm and inviting as the ones found indoors. Incorporating seating walls and enclosures, pergolas, dining and entertaining areas will bring this dream to life. Elements of fire and water are also high on the list. Integrating fire pits or fire places, waterfalls, fountains and ponds are another way to bring peace and tranquility to the space.Investing in the FutureWhile economic times may be leaner than some years past, we are continuing to see a trend in improving our living spaces. With Allan Block products and their wide variety of styles and finishes, investing in the future of your outdoor living space can be beautiful, green and inviting. What is your next outdoor project going to be? |

Micky Flanagan Tickets and Event Dates
It's been a great 18 months for Micky - he appeared in BBC 1's Michael McIntyre's Road Show & Live At The Apollo, his Radio 4 series What Chance Change? was a hit with listeners and critics alike and he is one of a handful of comics to perform their own Comedy Central special.
Micky draws on his East End background as he ruthlessly deconstructs the Cockney Myth with razor sharp observational wit. He tells a comic tale of a working class upbringing, where alphabetti spaghetti is a luxury. Thanks to a university education Micky is now a rare delight - an intellectual cockney.

Our new camping season is almost with us, opening up with new facilities and , don't forget when you camp with us you also get access to the park after hours!
We are pleased to announce that the Animal Farm will be opening for the new season on the 23rd March 2013! Come down and visit to see animals old and new!
Wellington Country Park is situated in 350 acres of beautiful parklands and is located just off the A33 between Reading and Basingstoke, on the Hampshire/Berkshire border.
It offers a safe, open air, fun filled venue for all the family, with facilities and attractions especially suited for children up to the age of 10.
To enjoy, we have several adventure play areas, a toddlers area, sand pits, slides, miniature railway (£1.50 extra), animal farm and petting barn (seasonal), nature trail maze, enchanted forest, water play, 9 holes of crazy golf and loads more play equipment to climb on and in; all will ensure a fun filled day.
Within woodlands, there are four nature trails to follow, taking in sights of our vast array of wildlife in their natural habitat. One trail allows you to get up close and personal to our resident herds of Red and Fallow deer.
Bicycles are NOT allowed in the Park unless they are fitted with stabilisers. Roller blades are also not permitted but children can bring their Scooters.
Surrounding our beautiful 35 acre lake is the perfect location for a family gathering, picnic or BBQ. (Sorry but please note, there is no boating, fishing or swimming in the lake).

Muhammad's instructions are indeed more important to Islam than the quran itself. You can easily practice Islam without a quran because Muhammad's instructions (such as how to use a toilet, which foot to enter a room with, what to invoke when putting putting your shirt on) are detailed (totalitarian?) enough. But it is impossible to practice Islam with just a quran. This is because the quran is a frustratingly vague book of poetry.
Apologists may respond by saying that when the quran and sunnah conflict, the quran takes precedence, for only the quran is the direct word of god. Wrong. The quran prescribes only two- contradictory- punishments for adultery: immurement, and lashings. Muhammad prescribes death. Death has always been the mandatory punishment under Islamic law, and believers lose no sleep over this contradiction, by parroting that Islam orders following Allah and his Messenger. Thus the a person who rejects the Messenger rejects Islam. The Christian equivalent to these circumlocutions are the Orthodox and Catholic sects, which state that Christianity means following Jesus and his Church.
No mainstream 'quran alone' sect that rejects or limits Muhammad's instructions exists. The few followers there are are labelled misguided, heretics, and non-Muslim by orthodox Muslims. Quran-alone Muslims reason that they are not bound by any of Muhammad's purpoted instructions as these were codified only three centuries after his death, are contradictory, and are not specifically prescribed by the quran. But this freedom to jettison Muhammad results in some interesting results. Some quran-alone Muslims pray towards Jerusalem rather than Makkah (as the quran doesn't bother specifying which mosque Muslims worldwide are to face in prayer); some pray only three times daily (quran never specifies how often to pray); and a multitude of further abberations from the mainstream Islam envisioned by Muhammad (and therefore by Allah).
Liberal Muslim apologists may state that quran-alone Muslims have the right to do so. But this means an abnegation of what Muhammad himself instructed: to kill heretics, and defend Muhammad's own instructions . Apologists then refer to the 'science of hadith', whereby the less flattering accounts of Muhammad's sunnah is labelled 'weak' and so in effect washed away from the record, and the less embarrassing ones are labelled 'strong' or 'good'. This 'science' is based on the reliability of the story teller's personality(!) and how long the chain of narration is. It's not the unbeliever's fault that Islam is such a disordered collection of texts and writings based on a hopelessly flawed chain of narration, as that's something for Muslims to sort out themselves (which is itself impossible). But to deny that this corpus of confusion forms part of what 'Islam' is meant to be just because it's not included in the quran is to deconstruct Islam to such a state that Islam no longer exists. And you can't even hide solely behind a quran regardless, as the quran says to follow these supplementary instructions.
So when an apologist denies Islam's more oppressive aspects beneath the pavis "it is not in the quran", ask whether it is instructed by the Muhammad instead. It almost invariably is, and Muhammad's non-quranic instructions are Islam itself.

If you're too dumb to be able to understand the science behind the weather, it's highly likely you'll spend your life saying a lot of dumb things.
There was no "introduce yourself" section on the forums, so I thought I might as well introduce myself here.
I used to be a devout, practicing Muslim for over 20 years.
Even though I was always a skeptic, my faith only started eroding over the past 7 years.
I am now a strident atheist, helping other ex-Muslims with the ensuing struggles that occur when they lose their faith. I also help them escape situations that are potentially life-threatening if their apostasy was made public. I am also undertaking a fairly daunting project that will aim to tell their stories as well.
I've come here to ask you a few simple questions:
1- Using your current knowledge of Islam and its current state, what do you think it will take for Muslims to take steps towards accepting apostates among them?
2- How can Islam progressively become as relatively less-harmful to the development of societies as Christianity is? Granted, Christianity can have severe consequences if its version of the world were to creep into classrooms, but you don't see a pastor shooting a 14-year old girl in the face for carrying a book.
We'll start with those to get this discussion going!
Sam completely fucked up giving Romney even an iota of credit.
It is not enough that Romney whimpered about Obama's hesitation here. As Sam points out himself, only a complete message can suffice in this circumstance:
There can be no limits to free speech, FOR ANY REASON, NO EXCEPTIONS, RELIGION INCLUDED!
As you can see, this is not a message Romney can spread. But any less fails to meet the real minimum need of spreading the truth, any less falls fatally short of what is absolutely required here.
As it stands, Romney's whining was at best a minor and accidental resemblance to this true message, motivated by nothing but shallow political opportunity. Romney cannot possibly speak the whole truth here, and even if he mouthed the words they would be a blatant lie on his lips, because we can all be fully assured he would sell out free speech in a heartbeat, just as he has repeatedly promised to do, in service to his cult and kindred fundamentalist cultists of all stripes.
Remember, one man's porn is another man's religion (69 FTW!), and you can't claim to support freedom of speech and freedom of thought if you aim to impose your disagreement about which is which on me.
This is a grim article on the normal standards of ritual violence in the middle east. Pretty much still in the stone age.

Redeye is a traditional Schneider family alcoholic beverage and staple at any family celebration. Through this branding/packaging campaign, I wanted to transform Redeye from a homemade concoction into a fashionable, marketable beverage. The applications cater to drink mixing in a group setting—as the drink's origins are in large family settings—and also allow individuals to have an easily transportable mixed beverage that is fresh and cool to carry around on the go.Branding, Packaging2012
For a web design investigation in user interface design, I chose to rebrand AmeriCorps and its web presence. Through my redesign, I set out to re-brand AmeriCorps with a more modern, relatable aesthetic, to create a navigation that is concise and more user-friendly, and to highlight the application process for volunteers and organizations.Branding, User Interface Design, Web Design2012
This is an idealized branding campaign I created for the city of Bismarck, ND. Bismarck is the capital of the state of North Dakota, and a city of greater than 60,000 people. It has a rich history founded in Native American culture and the pioneers of the West such as Lewis & Clark and Sacajawea. Its citizens are friendly and always happy to lend a hand, helping to foster a tourist-friendly environment. Because Bismarck is not typically a place where many come to visit, my goal was to create an identity campaign that would make it an attractive place for both visitors to see, and residents to take pride in.Graphic Design, Branding2012
As part of an intern presentation to McGraw-Hill Financial Senior Leaders, I created a proposed web platform and design that would help innovate the way customers see MHF and its products. I presented this proposal to Senior Leaders, and created a printed booklet summarizing our team's research.Branding, Graphic Design, Web Design2012
In my freelance work, I have designed logos for Electronic Hearth TV Blog, and IntelliQuit, a product and app to assist smokers in quitting. I have also designed logos for local political campaigns for Ed Sinclair for Mahwah Mayor and John Roth for Mahwah Town Council.Branding, Icon Design2012
For John Roth's Town Council campaign, I have worked closely
with campaign coordinators to create a marketing strategy,
both print-based and digital, to best reach the town voters. Mr.
Roth's campaign is strong and bold, while still being friendly and
approachable with the colors and typeface we have chosen for
his political brand.Advertising, Branding, Web Design2012 -
Modeled after the NYC DOT's Active Design Guidelines, Fordham has taken initiative to promote taking the stairs on campus. As propaganda, I used cheeky humor combined with caution sign symbols and graphics to create a poster set and floor signs. These were positioned within Fordham's Lowenstein building by elevators and escalators, to convince students to take the stairs instead.Advertising, Creative Direction, Graphic Design2012
For my Designing Books, Zines, and Chapbooks class, I designed and self-bound a booklet featuring the lyrics from Radiohead's album The Bends. The text is printed in layers on vellum paper to illustrate how each song actually sounds. The shifts and changes in typography exhibit changes in song dynamics and a listener's overall impression of the music.Graphic Design, Print Design, Typography2012
Inflatable Ferret is an online student-run underground music magazine. As we are beginning our second full year of production, we decided to refresh and update the magazine's format and design.
In the new design, we wanted the magazine to be playful, yet professional and sophisticated. To do this, I used bright, exuberant colors in contrast with clean, polished sans serif typefaces like Trade Gothic and Grotesque.
To give us more creative layout options and more flexible whitespace, I am using a 7-column grid system.
The following are pages from our October 2010 issue, the first issue to use this new template.Art Direction, Editorial Design, Graphic Design2011 -
This project was a final project for a class entitled Health & Disease at Fordham University. As many students had difficulty understanding the process of addiction within the human brain, I designed a poster series and handout-friendly diagrams on the subject. The project was entered in the Fordham University Undergraduate Research Fair and received Honorable Mention.Graphic Design, Illustration, Print Design2012
In my design for a tourism site for Bismarck, North Dakota, I set out to attract tourists and visitors to the Bismarck-Mandan area and provide them with easy access to accommodations, while highlighting Bismarck's historical and cultural attractions. I wanted to create a more dynamic, modern aesthetic for Bismarck to change people's perception of the city. Through the use of photography as a main design element, I tried to emphasize the beauty of Bismarck's historical culture and natural landscape.User Interface Design, Web Design2012
For a Designing Books, Zines, and Chapbooks class, I designed three book jacket designs for Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species. In the set, one design used only typography, another only vector shapes, and the third used an image. In my designs, I tried to update the idea of On the Origin of Species for a younger, more modern audience.Graphic Design, Print Design2012
A set of vector posters for a film series at Fordham University.Graphic Design, Illustration, Print Design2011
As an intern at Standard & Poor's, I designed several CreditWeek covers and layouts for the Spotlight section of the magazine. I also produced marketing slicks and event invitations. Additionally, I created new marketing icons for
the contact information for marketing slicks.Graphic Design, Icon Design, Print Design2012
