text: 22.02.18 ISE 2018 Report: Personalisation, multi-room audio and ambitious displays shine at the RAI AUTHOR: Charlotte Ashley MULTIROOM SYSTEMSLIGHTING & SHADESHOME CINEMAISE 2018HOME AUTOMATION Walking around the halls of the RAI this year, dodging the crowds at the Panasonic stands, getting lost trying to find the elusive smart building Hall 9 powered by only Stroopwafels and that extra strong coffee, it's easy to ponder how commercial ISE is. The stats don't lie – last year 34% of attendees said their interest spanned both commercial and residential sectors, with just under 11% purely interesting in residential solutions, but by no means did this deter the presence of the home technology this year. From the Smart Building Conference until the last day of the show, the sector's good health and continued growth as the lines between consumer and pro increasingly blur was evident. And the rapid development of the show (in case you missed it, we're referring to almost doubling attendance in 5 years from 44,151 to 80,923…), can only be a good thing, as more and more installers look to expand their revenue by dipping their toe into commercial, and an increasing number of products cross both industries. And from Crestron's devoted residential zone to the demos of some of the outstanding home cinemas at the show, we showed that yes, we may be small, but we are mighty. CEDIA reports an industry in good health Where best to start with what we learnt at ISE this year with the bright orange stand that greets your entry into Hall 1 each day? CEDIA reported having a great show, with over 20 new member sign ups directly at the show and the stand often abuzz thanks to the successful continuation of its series of 'Talks' (this year exploring talking points such as cryptocurrencies, opportunities in assisted living the growing importance of BIM (Building Information Modelling)). Yet arguably one of the most important talks unveiled the results of its 2017 state of the industry UK report, shared by Futuresource's Jack Wetherill – findings including the below (plus highlighting security, voice control and maintenance & aftercare as key areas of growth) show an industry in good health. Average total gross annual turnover per installation company was £1.3m in 2016, up by 33% on 2012. Participants projected this to rise by a further 17% in 2017. Projects costing £50K or more accounted for 26% of projects in 2016, compared to 19% in 2013. In contrast, installations £3K or below have fallen by one-third and in 2017, it is expected to be 7%. HiddenWires also had a chance to sit down with CEDIA's newly appointed CEO, Tabatha O'Connor, and discuss what the association will look like under her reigns, as well as how the industry can inspire more women to get involved in the sector – look out for the full interview next week. Home automation heavyweights show laser focus Meeting Crestron's VP of residential, John Clancy, for a tour of the company's large dedicated home technology area on its booth (a clear affirmation that it is serious about its significant residential push) it was clear the company has had a lot going on regarding customising products. The manufacturer's shades line may be nothing new for any US installers at the show, but it was the product range's – deadly quiet and available in a number of textures and materials – first outing in EMEA. In touching distance from the variety of shades options for clients was a number of button finishes debuting at the show (including a blingtastic diamante-finished version) and crucially, the company's two new remotes. A remote may seem like a fairly simple thing to design, yet Clancy explained that a serious amount of work went into planning the HR-310-I and TSR-310 handheld touchscreen remotes (the latter has a nice touchscreen), and it shows. Both look sleek and are nice to hold, and running off either AAA batteries/a battery that lasts 3 days (TSR-310) and having up to nine custom-engravable button adds that little bit of luxury whilst still being easy to own. Although the remotes can be voice controlled, it was interesting to see the contrast in how Crestron (like many others) – a manufacturer that dedicated a significant amount of space to its voice demo room last year – presented voice in a much more subdued manner this year. Of course, priorities change year-on-year but the presence voice was considerably (and ironically) quieter this year. Voice wasn't completely forgotten however, with industry heavyweights including HDL and Legrand/Vantage showcasing their newly announced integrations. Demos of Pyng video in 'day-in-the-life' setting drew crowds throughout the day and looked impressive – though it's not available yet… Products aside, something to look forward to in the near future is Crestron dealer events coming this side of the Atlantic. Clancy told HiddenWires that potentially both an event in the UK and Europe are in the works, and with ISE its number one event (more on that below) for engaging with its dealers in EMEA it makes perfect sense. Meanwhile, at the Control4 both, talk surrounded the CA-1 – essentially, a product answering the prayers of those looking for an easy introduction to IoT-based automation to present to new clients, or those working in the hotel and building industries. The CA-1's price may only be US $350, but it packs in bang for your buck as it can do everything an EA system (minus handling AV systems) can – including supporting Wi-Fi and ZigBee, with Z-Wave optional via a slide-in module. Continuing on the home control front, ELAN has been busy (in spite of Core Brand's takeover by Nortek Security & Control) and debuted the latest iteration of its software (8.2) and most importantly, how it offers 2D/3D floorplan view of a property to a user, as well as auto-discovery of all compatible devices on the network. High end audio shines (like a diamond) For a demonstration on a stand and not in one of the assigned, tucked-away-out-of-sight demo rooms of the RAI, Bowers & Wilkins created a seriously impressive sound at its '800 Diamond Theatre'. Demo of the show has to go to the UK-based manufacturer for the clarity of sound (across movies and music) delivered by CI800 Series Diamond system, accompanied by Trinnov processing, JVC projection, Kaleidescape, Lutron, and more. Debuting at the show was B&W's 700 Series of loudspeakers – boasting the same ultra-transparent Continuum midrange cone technology as the 800 Series Diamond, as well as packing in bespoke Aerofoil profile bass drivers – and its DB4S sub. Elsewhere the specialised audio focus was ramped up by the likes of Stealth Acoustics and Origin Acoustics. Stealth showcased its patented, highly impressive LRx83 invisible speaker, with 300W for robust output and flat-front FidelityGlass radiating surface which Stealth say has two-times the area of a 15-in woofer. Expanding its all-weather focus was Stealth Acoustics who gave a debut to its Explorer Collection of in-wall speakers, which can be installed (and uninstalled) as easily as one click. Speakercraft also got in on the outdoor action over at the Nortek booth, introducing its weatherproof Landscape Series spanning two satellite speakers and two in-ground subwoofers. Multi-room audio continued to be a focus among both players old and new. Legrand catered to the local market with the introduction of its first ever DIN rail standard for mounting electronics from its Nuvo Player Portfolio. The P600 player is compatible with other amplifiers in the manufacturer's ecosystem of Nuvo streaming players, and supplies up to 40W of power to a single zone, with support for up to allow 16 players and 16 simultaneous, independent streams from the likes of Spotify, Deezer, and more. HDanywhere were also highlighting the final outcome of its new foray into multi-room audio by giving an official debut to its uControl-ready mHub Audio matrix amp, a 4-zone matrix-amp with DSP EQ and integrated 55W amplifiers, at the OneAV booth. Finally, Meridian introduced a very cool streamer (the 210) designed to bring, Apple Airplay and Spotify Connect to Meridian products, lining up against the company's recently launched controllers and a new UHD audio processor (the UHD722). Certainly bright though considerably quieter to operate than the above was the latest offerings at Lutron's booth. The lighting industry stalwart was demonstrating two-channel lighting – essentially, providing the ability to manage both colour temperature and brightness at the same time separately. At the manufacturer's booth it explained how the two provide the perfect combination to satisfy residential and commercial client's growing interest on how light and dim level can affect health and productivity at different times of the day. Now you see them No longer a fad now there is some seriously impressive technology powering some of the latest transparent and mirror products seen at ISE – one of which that ticked both boxes when dealing with 'big is best'-type client was Agath's 98-in mirror TV (see below). And it may be a product being pitched at retail and other commercial environments for now, but many were drawn to LG's stunning 55-in OLED transparent display whatever side of the industry they work on. There's no reason why this type of display will make its way into homes one day, acting as the next step up from the mirror display for customers that can afford it. The 0.8mm self-adhering film version incorporating LG's transparent technology wasn't bad either. The same goes for the commercial version of 'The Wall' from Samsung seen at the show (powered by Samsung's MagicInfo content management platform this time) – with a screen size of 146-in, the modular MicroLED panel was always going to be a crowd-pleaser on European shores after debuting at CES earlier this year. Whilst on the topic of admirable visual displays, a shoutout must be given to Barco, who continue the blur the lines between what's a commercial and residential offering with its digital canvas demonstration, also seen at CEDIA last September. Its partnership with Niio (the provider of the artworks) was celebrated with a number of aesthetically pleasing glare-less, interactive pieces across the show. Though most talked-about display presentation must go to Digital Projection's seriously powerful (and seriously costly) 8K projector. The INSIGHT Dual Laser 8K projects a 7680 X 4320 resolution of 33 million pixels, with 25,000 lumens of brightness, and although may have been on-stand mainly as a showpiece, word is DP were receiving multiple enquiries about purchasing the 6-figure projector. ISE 2019 will come to RAI in Amsterdam from 5 to 9 February, 2019 – where the show will take us is 2020 remains to be seen, with many speculating the show's ever-increasing footfall may force a move elsewhere in Europe, and with some not keen on its temporary hall set-up. Watch this space. Until next year, everyone.

Prince: A Tribute in Triptych
This triptych perfectly capture the sexy chameleon that was Prince Rogers Nelson. There was something always the same, a smoldering look that made you tingle, and yet the entire exterior seemed to change, the clothes always different, and each of them marked phases in his life and art.
There won't be another one like him ever, not in this lifetime or many more to come. Just as there was never another Da Vinci. Complete with all the unfinished projects! Yet these three "looks" are very distinct. Starting on the left with the legendary side-eye he was known for. The staring at you or through you in the center. Then the loving and longing glance on the right where he is almost saying goodbye. You have curly, kinky, and straight hair. Various facial hair strategies. No one, identical to the others, but gradients. Each a vague memory or distinct mood that could actually shift meaning over the years.
There was always, even from the very early days something other-worldly about Prince. A mutability, that very few artists have or can even muster.
Stark contrasts in this work, that are at once warm and cool, frosty purples offset by an umber-orange warmness, all highlighted by a cerulean blue to really bring this trio into a unique harmony. As highlighted above by the detail pictures, each part of the triptych perfectly captures a mood, and alone is a work of art. Combined they give the eye so many places that lure your gaze which aren't even the main focal points really. Nuances and flourishes that do much more than set an ethereal mood, or serve as a backdrop. The glittering outline is probably my favorite, as the suggestion of the magical essence and quality of his musicianship.
That thin line of his own style, across a myriad of influences and through varying arrangements. Screened in amorphous shapes and dream-like clouds, evoking a sensual musk and unmistakable charisma. There is a geometry here as well, that having stared at it for hours seems serene and vibrant simultaneously. The sort found in an action movie where they slow it down so that you can capture the balletic grace of the subject as they tackle an impossible feat.
An inclusion of the Love Symbol really add just a touch more motion and a graphical, almost semiotic tinge. However, the fact that staring at it for great lengths Prince seems to both be staring directly at you, but at the moment you focus, it is as if he is looking just past you. There is a metaphor there for his untimely death, or his eclectic brand of fame, and his relationship to the world.
We felt, each of his fans, as if he was speaking to us, through us and his music, with tales of love or life, heartbreak or pain, and the vicissitudes of being utterly human. Never too lofty, often poetic, humble and even at times raunchy, while managing to be arranged like a classically historic piece. That something a scant few artists can do. Then to be so utterly aware of his beauty, as is clear, and to be as masterful at crafting that image to complement his musical offerings was another gift.
Clearly people and by his own admission considered him a perfectionist, but it seems to go so eloquently with the way he could seamlessly marry both the vision and sound to match his words. Love and loving, a constant theme throughout, and usually that is highlighted in its most sensual often erotic ways, but always coupled with a spiritual sense, a wholeness that love provides. Like all good trinities this piece manages to capture that.
As well the artist VG Waymer is going to, in a very Prince-like manner, donate a portion of the proceeds to musical education. So that not only will you get a magnificent work of art, which she worked very hard on for the past month, but also by supporting her, also support the principles of the artist it seeks to pay tribute to. This is a bonus or all fans of music everywhere.
Below is the final piece, and the various sites you can follow for more work like this. Do take time to tell me what you think in the comments, or where you would hang this when you buy it.

While the S&P 500 appears to be consolidating after its breakout out to record highs, two technical analysts believe that another way of looking at the market suggests that further gains are ahead.
Chris Verrone, technical analyst at Strategas, said Wednesday on CNBC's "Power Lunch" that the average stock within the capitalization-weighted S&P 500 is doing better than the index itself. In other words, if the S&P 500 were viewed by giving the same weight to each of its components during 2016, then the performance would be better.
Within the S&P 500, the influence of one of the index's individual components on the S&P's performance depends on the value of that company's available shares. For this reason, Apple makes up about 3 percent of the index, while Diamond Offshore comprises less than 0.01 percent.
An alternate way of looking at how large-cap stocks are doing is taking each of the stocks in the S&P 500 as an equal component, so that each has a weight of about 0.2 percent. When the normal S&P 500 is compared to this equal-weighted version, one finds that the alternate way of looking at the index is outperforming nicely, indicating that smaller stocks are outperforming their larger peers.
In fact, while the S&P 500 is up almost 6 percent this year, Verrone says that if you equally weighed all the stocks in the S&P 500, the index is actually up closer to 9 percent. According to Verrone, this shows positive signs for the market.
"The outperformance of the equal-weight index suggests that participation in the rally has broadened out, it's not just the large weights driving returns," he said in an email Thursday.
Piper Jaffray technical analyst Craig Johnson also sees this as a good sign. As small- and mid-cap stocks rise in the S&P 500, Johnson sees the market following.
"I do see the breadth of the market start to pick up," he told CNBC on Tuesday. "February had very low readings, but now the market is broadening and [that's a sign that] the bull market is moving higher."
Johnson sees the market moving 8 to 9 percent higher by year-end.

A cat got trapped at the top of a huge dam – then slid all the way down onto a police boat that had been sent to rescue it.
Officers positioned their boat directly under the frightened kitty, who was caught on video sliding down the snow-covered concrete toward its rescuers.
The incident occurred in Huntington, Indiana on Wednesday after the feline had become stranded on a spillway below a road.
Police said they were unsure of how the cat got stuck on the dam, but suspected it either fell or was thrown off the road above, Huntington County police wrote on Facebook.
'The cat was clearly in distress and retreated to the very top of the spillway area and lodged itself in the metal structure,' police wrote.TV reporter fired after he kept jumping on rare vintage cars on air
'There was not anyway to gain access to the animal, short of taking a boat out and hoping we could coax it down. It was decided it was worth a shot to attempt the help the cat versus doing nothing.'
An Army Corp of engineers got a boat for officers and advised officers to shut the flow of water into the area before attempting to rescue the animal.
'When the boat reached the concrete spillway, the cat came out of the structure it was hiding in at the top, and slid the entire way down and the rescuers were able to grab it before it hit the water,' police wrote.'
After saving the little gray cat, officer's posted pictures of themselves with the cat, who appeared to be making itself at home in their office.
Police said that the cat was unharmed in their video has since been viewed 28,000 times.

Brainstem glioma
Vague headache for 3 months. Acute deterioration with vomiting. No neurology.
Patient Data
Loading images...
Loading Stack -
0 images remaining
A huge mass centered on the pons - it expands the brainstem with mass effect on the 4th ventricle, extends into the cerebral peduncles and anteriorly around the basilar artery. The lateral and third ventricles are dilated with prominence of the temporal horns.
3 case question available
Case Discussion
This child presented with a long history of headache with superimposed acute deterioration. The huge pontine glioma shows that large tumors can grow to a significant size without resulting in significant symptoms.
Despite relatively few symptoms over time, the tumor eventually completely obstructs CSF flow and results in hydrocephalus with symptoms of raised intracranial pressure.
The child needs a neurosurgical review and consideration of a ventricular access device to reduce the pressure.
The hydrocephalus in this case is relatively mild without periventricular edema.

IDdriven, Inc. Stresses Role Management and Attestation Critical to Achieving Security
Security has always been a primary business issue – but now it's critical. More important than ever. To say that we want to provide access to all employees and partners, is to state the obvious, while keeping the bad guys out.
Security has to start with tight management of identity data. Many businesses enjoy the benefits of synchronizing user data with Microsoft Identity Manager (MIM, or its predecessor FIM) and perhaps AD Connect, too. Not only is this administratively efficient, but these attributes can be relied upon for authentication and authorization purposes by various directories, applications, and web services. But is that enough?
Stated CEO, Arend Verweij, "The next stage is to add role management, so that permission information is properly applied according to business rules, so that managers who are closest to the data, and the users of that data, can allow or deny access through a regular and efficient attestation/certification process."
"Bottom line, IDdriven fits that perfectly. IDdriven uses Azure AD, managing AAD users and groups. Handles attestation campaigns automatically, connects to SaaS applications and has an API which MIM can use.
There's nothing better on the market. Amongst other things, it fits with any Directory and any cloud provider such as AWS."
About IDdriven

Album review: Antony And The Johnsons - Swanlights (Secretly Canadian)
A jubilant and beautiful fourth album for Antony Hegarty - and the CD booklet is rather good too
Essentially what a CD booklet always wanted to be when it grew up, [b]Anthony Hegarty[/b]'s fourth album comes encased in a large hard-backed book of his cut'n'paste surrealist collages which cries 'THIS IS ART!' as loud and proud as any amount of affected he/she warbling. Thankfully, the album slipped into this HMV shelf-stacker's worst nightmare largely justifies such grand pretensions. For every '[b]Everything Is New[/b]' – a looping chamber quartet refrain of the title that's as artful and pointless as [a]Radiohead[/a]'s '[b]Everything In Its Right Place[/b]' – there's a direct and devastating ode to death like '[b]The Great White Ocean[/b]'. For every bout of backwards-piano esoterica (the title track) there's a funksome brass-pop corker ('[b]Thank You For Your Love[/b]').
And for every burst of lyrical ayahuasca – "[i]Elect the salt mother/For she's a selective Christ/Punch her ghost![/i]" goes '[b]Salt Silver Oxygen[/b]' – there's an '[b]I'm In Love[/b]', all jubilant romance and hand-claps. A record of beauty and balance, '[b]Swanlights[/b]' cements Hegarty as the transgender [a]Joanna Newsome[/a]: artsy and challenging enough for the Guardian chin-strokers, but with enough hushed melodic wallop to seduce all-comers. It'll hit you like a punch to the ghost.

Niko Kovac confirmed Lucas Hernandez has undergone a successful surgery on his knee injury and should be fit for the start of the 2019-20 season.
The France defender, who can play at left-back or centre-back, was announced as an €80million signing from Atletico Madrid on Wednesday after Bayern triggered his buyout clause to smash the Bundesliga's transfer record.
Lucas will not play again for the LaLiga side as he went under the knife to resolve damage to the medial collateral ligament of his right knee.
The 23-year-old will undergo rehabilitation in Germany under the watch of chief medical officer Dr Hans-Wilhelm Muller-Wohlfahrt but Kovac cannot guarantee Lucas will be ready for pre-season.
"Dr Muller-Wohlfahrt is in contact with the surgeon," Kovac told a news conference on Thursday.
"And if everything goes well, then he should be fit for matchday one. That does not mean that he will inevitably be [ready] on the first day of training.
"He is a world champion and is young, he can take many different positions, he will certainly strengthen us.
"He was operated on yesterday, that sounds weird, but our doctors thought that the surgery was very, very good.
"He will do the rehab under the supervision of our physios and in consultation with Atletico here in Munich."
Personnel update from #Kovac
"Almost everyone is fit. Only @AlphonsoDavies and @ArjenRobben are unavailable." #SCFFCB #MiaSanMia pic.twitter.com/1D159yUNp9
— FC Bayern English (@FCBayernEN) March 28, 2019
Bayern, clear of Borussia Dortmund on goal difference, will be without wingers Alphonso Davies and Arjen Robben for Saturday's trip to Freiburg.
Robben is set to leave Bayern at the end of the season and Kovac is unclear when the 35-year-old could return.
"It's difficult, I tried once to name a date, but I was wrong, so I cannot say it," Kovac said of the Dutch winger.
"Because at the moment he does not feel that he can participate in team training, or even play games.
"We still have eight Bundesliga games and could play three cup games, I would like him to be able to play not just one or two, but also several games.
"Everything depends on health and you cannot always control everything."

Half a year into his job as a correspondent on top-rated American news satire programme, The Daily Show With Trevor Noah, Malaysian comic Ronny Chieng is still feeling the high.
And it is not just because the 30-year-old will have this coveted position on his resume but also that it is election year in the United States, which means the work pace has been non-stop.
"It's crazy. America's presidential elections are so intense and they last for so long, especially with all the cable news channels covering it 24/7. It's the reality show that never stops," he says in a telephone interview from New York.
"And The Daily Show pokes fun at politics in a very important way, so everything we do has to be of that standard. Doing the show is challenging, but it's a privilege to do it. It's the best job in comedy."
On the show, Chieng is one of several correspondents who do parody news segments in the field, before reporting to South African host Trevor Noah in the studio.
His comedy persona is intelligent, but also sarcastic and angsty.
If I were to die tomorrow, I'll definitely feel like I've accomplished some things.
RONNIE CHIENG on his achievements
The gig, which he got after he submitted an audition tape, is certainly the biggest one yet for the Johor Baru native, who had previously been known for working the stand-up comedy circuit in Australia.
After all, The Daily Show is one of the most well-reviewed and popular comedy TV programmes globally, not least because it used to be helmed by the very sharp comic Jon Stewart from 1999 to last year.
Does Chieng think that the new host measures up?
"I think Trevor is doing an amazing job and I'll share with you a story which puts it best. Jon had asked Trevor to put on his size 8 shoes, but Trevor's feet are like size 12, so he couldn't. And Jon said to him, 'That's right, you can't put on my shoes'.
"The point is that they are two completely different hosts. They're separate comics doing comedy from different perspectives. So do you see a Jon Stewart clone in Trevor? No. But does he carry the torch? That's a definite yes."
As for Chieng's own brand of comedy, a big part of what makes his jokes work is the very international - and some would say, confused - perspective he brings to the table.
Although the bachelor was born in Malaysia, he had spent his childhood in New Hampshire in the US, before moving to Singapore for secondary school and junior college and then Melbourne, Australia, for university.
He had moved to the US when his parents went there to pursue master's degrees and followed them to Singapore when they found jobs here.
His retiree father used to be a corporate executive, while his mother is working as a financial controller. They still live in Singapore. Chieng's 33-year-old sister is a doctor in Sydney.
He says: "This comes up as a bit in my stand-up comedy, but I always feel like I belong everywhere, but also nowhere.
"When I was in Singapore, I lived in Jurong East for 10 years and I feel like I know everything there. But I also lived in Australia for 10 years after that and I feel like I know everyone there too. It's the third-culture kid feeling."
He had studied law at the University of Melbourne, but he knew that comedy was his true calling after winning a college comedy competition in 2009.
Since then, he has been racking up numerous comedy awards across Australia, including the Directors' Choice Award at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival and Best Show at the Sydney Comedy Festival, both in 2014.
"I've been very lucky in comedy. I can sell out theatres and I got to open for some of my comedy heroes such as Bill Burr and Dave Chappelle, and I'm on The Daily Show.
"If I were to die tomorrow, I'll definitely feel like I've accomplished some things."
Are his comedian friends jealous of his success?
He laughs and says: "Well, I can't speak for American comics, but I know quite a lot of the comics in Australia and they've all been very good to me. I think there's envy, but not jealousy. No one has messaged me to ask for a job on The Daily Show - not yet, anyway."

text: There are quite a number of advantages to using a travel agent whilst on holiday – but a lot of them aren't recognized. In addition, features and benefits of using the Internet to research and guide holidays are bettering and being added to all the time. The Internet has meant that individuals can now easily plan trips for themselves. This has not only opened up a larger amount of discounts obtainable to most people, but additionally given folks the fun and pleasure of planning and booking their own trips.\n\nStudy your training procedures to ensure that your workers are preserving pace with the technological sophistication (adjustments, updates, modifications, and enhancements) required of at present's travel agents. It could be time to check out the overall productivity of your workers and find out the true costs and earnings of each particular person on your payroll.\n\nClear View Techniques Ltd, of Vancouver, British Columbia developed this specialized software so travel companies may provide an onsite service, much like the money change shops found in airports. What's more, travel companies can have a money change service up and working in less than a day.\n\nBefore you get your heart set on a particular company, discuss to them about if you wish to travel to see if they have time to plan your trip. Certain accommodations and activities in Hawaii are completely supplied to people who guide with explicit travel companies.\n\nI imagine that travel agents at present still provide companies and data that we won't get online. Granted, some things corresponding to booking a simple flights, most people can successfully manage on their own. Nonetheless, the key thing that travel agents at present provide is their first-hand data and experience.\n\nI suppose my point is: Lower your expectations, as many agents don't know rather more than most people, although they have access to the information. The same could be for a lawyer, a real estate agent, a hair dresser and I can go on and on. So why do folks suppose you wouldn't have to do your research or get a referral to search out a wonderful travel agent.

Restoring an old gown back to its original state is a nearly impossible task, especially if you are doing it yourself. I decided to give it a try on an 80's dress I am planning to use to make a new dress. Now be forewarned! I did my proper and extensive research on how to do this. If you have any doubts in yourself about attempting this or your dress has some very delicate details and the overall thought scares the bejesus out of you, then please please please get it done professionally!
I went over the dress thoroughly and used Dryell's gentle spray and several cue-tips to remove any obvious stains.
Remove all metal fasteners from the dress beforehand! I Filled the bathtub with slightly warm water and 6 scoops of Oxi-Clean, chlorine free bleach and it's very gentle. Also used a gentle powder detergent that is suited for baby clothes and it worked really well. Just make sure you don't use too much.
Every 1/2 hour I "swished" the dress around very gently and checking on it's progress. I noticed some heavy yellowing on the collar and mixed up a high concentrated solution of oxi-clean and dabbed the area, which did help lighten it.
**Tip** If the dress has a very large skirt you can lay it onto a bed sheet so you can remove it from the bathtub more easily. Also, if it feels like it will be too big for your bathtub you can wash it in portions ie. bodice first and then skirt, leaving the other portion out of the tub hanging.
The soaking was for 4 hours for this dress, but you can go longer – even overnight, depends on how yellow your dress is!
After 4 hours of soaking I felt the dress was looking much better. I slowly let the bathtub drain, filled it with fresh water and gave the dress a quick swish, and drained it again. This took 3 or 4 times before I felt that all the soap had been washed away.
I set up a large drying rack in the bathtub and carefully set the dress on it to let it drip dry. By morning it was dry enough to bring into a larger room to fully dry.

Logo Design
What makes a good logo design?
Please install Flash® and turn on Javascript.
7 simple logo design rules
Something weird happens when it comes to designing a logo. Designers feel the urge to be different or ape the latest fads in the award books. Clients tend to over-analyze and become stricken with indecision - asking anyone in the office for their opinion.
But there are a few basic logo design rules to guide you:
Rule Number 1: Legibility.
It's got to work at all sizes, in colour and mono, and still be legible.
Of course it's going to look great in a slick PowerPoint presentation - but will it still communicate at the quarter of the size of a postage stamp?
Rule Number 2: Economy
With the shift of so much collateral online, it's easy to be wooed by designs that look great on-screen. But if it only works in full colour, the costs are going to mount up over the years every time you go to print.
First get a logo that looks good in black and white, then start looking at colour options. It's a little thing that a designer may not consider, but could cost you a lot of money in the long term.
Rule Number 3: Longevity
In design, this week's hot styles are as fleeting as the clothes rails at Top Shop. I've seen many big companies waste millions on logos that look out of date within a couple of years.
Abbey National is prime example. Their logo had a typeface and illustration of a couple with a roof umbrella which, let us say, was of the moment - the late 1970s. It needed to be updated.
Some design agency charged a few hundred grand to come up with a multi coloured airbrush style logo, with all the inch thick reports, and rationale to back it up.
Where did common sense go in this process?
Can you imagine how many millions it must have cost to have all their print in full colour, to have all those fascias refitted across hundreds of branches?
I said at the time it won't last - and it didn't - within 18 months they had a re-design.
Classic type, timeless icon, one colour and It's clean, simple and recognisable - it works. When they got taken over by Santander, all they did was change the name.
Don't get me wrong, it's doesn't look great, but at least it works.
Rule Number 4: Simplicity
You can spot always spot a logo that has been designed by a committee - the result of dozens of people having an input, endless reports, box ticking and focus groups.
How else do you think the UK Government manages to consistently spend hundreds of thousands of pounds for such publicly ridiculed results?
When you're looking at a design proposal, just remember the acronym of Kelly Johnson, who was a lead engineer at Lockheed Aircraft: KISS: Keep It Simple Stupid.
Rule Number 5: Identity
It's not rocket science designing a logo. Once you start apllying rules 1 to 4 the field of focus has narrowed considerably.
But briefing a designer can be tricky, and they will need more of a steer, than "I'll know it, when I see it."
So just sling a load of words together in a great big list. Are you modern or traditional? Personal or corporate? Techy or earthy? Do you want it to be arresting, or reassuring?
Any designer worth their salt should be able to do this for you, but it's important at the outset to set the goals, so you can evaluate the results.
Rule Number 6: Typography
When I started out in the business, we had people employed as typographers. Highly skilled and talented people whose sole functions was to choose the right cut of font that reflected the client's identity.
To the layman, obviously it's subliminal. But to the crafstman, the choice of font is pivitol to the brand.
A crude rule on thumb is that any typeface that has been around for 80 years and still being used today isn't going to look old tomorrow.
Rule Number 7: Exclusivity
There is nothing unique in design, it is a constant process of inspiration and evolution - picking the best and adapting it.
The brands we perceive as iconic have gained their status with massive marketing budgets and by being consistent over so many years, rather than the brilliance of their logo design - just think of Coca Cola, Nike, McDonalds, Channel or BMW.
These logos aren't strokes of genius, but they do follow a few simple rules.
Web design services:
Logo design brand suite
When I design a logo for a client they are given a complete brand suite for every possible application.
This way, once you've paid for your logo, everything could ever possibly need, you already have:
- Colour references for screen and print: CMYK, RGB and HEX
- EPS file for print: colour, white only, black only
- Optimised JPG files for screen: colour, white only, black only
Stationery and artwork
If you're getting a new logo, you're going to need new stationery – don't worry, I can do that as well. Pretty competitive on print too.
Microsoft Office templates
Custom templates for Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint documents for a consistent corporate look through all your correspondence.
Customised wallpapers
Customised background wallpapers for your PCs and mobile phones also add that finishing corporate touch at client meetings.

In this mini series, we will explore creative movement, mindful thinking and sacred ritual. Today's class focuses on creating conscious feelings via the thoughts we think. How often do you actually stop and ask your self, "what am I thinking"? Not many of us do. Well, it's time to start if we want to live in abundance and in control of our lives rather than in the seat of the victim.
The prompt here is to ask your self how you would like to FEEL most of the time and then create a thought that will invoke that feeling. Repeat it to your self like a mantra, tangibly feel the sensations, maybe even the visualizations that this controlled thought produces. This is how we change our feelings to be living in a good place now, not in the space of, I would be happy if I only had…fill in the blank, scenario. We have the option to be happy now. Our thoughts are our choice. It is something we have total control over, it is not easy work, but it is possible. I am here to help you navigate the process. Let's get this party started!

I am extremely happy to share with you my very first publication on I Like Crochet Magazine!
I am not new to the I Like Knitting magazine, BUT this is my very first pattern to be published in a Crochet magazine.
It also happens to be my very first crochet sweater.
Both ever made and ever designed.
I have made and designed tops and vest in the past, so I was already familiarized with the base shaping and construction.
Yet, is the first crochet garment with sleeves that I made and designed.
This comfortable lightweight sweater is perfect for those late summer nights that are slowly turning into chilly fall weather.
Featuring cute little crocheted stars, this sweater is for those free spirits that want to wear something fun and edgy.
Pair it with your favorite jeans and some ankle booties for the perfect fall outfit.
Every girl needs a comfy and cozy sweater, but looks cute and stylish.
With sizes: XS to 5XL
The Star of Something New Sweater is part of the "Starry Nights" collection, featured on the I Like Crochet Magazine on their August 2018 Issue.
The Star of Something New Sweater was designed with Knit Picks Hawthorne Fingering.
The sample features the colors Delphium (main sweater) and Slate (stars).
Knit Picks Hawthorne Fingering is a 80% Superwash Fine Highland Wool, 20% Polyamide blend.
Great for garments, so you don't have to hand-wash such a big item.
The Highland wool will keep you warm, while the polyamide will provide your garment that sturdiness it needs to last many uses.
And although the sample is shown in Knit Picks Hawthorne Fingering Kettle Dye, the Hawthorne family is all created using the same wool blend, you will have a wonderful palette to choose from.

Trekking in Nepal after the 2015 earthquakes – what is it like now?
So what happened in 2015?
Due to its rugged terrain and remote scenery, trekking in Nepal has always been a popular activity in the Himalayas. But in 2015, pressure between the Indian- and the Eurasian continental plate triggered a massive earthquake and aftershock. The landlocked country suddenly had to mourn thousands and had to deal with over 20.000 injured and half a million destroyed homes. Naturally, tourism took a big hit as well.
Naturally, tourism also took a massive hit, as most travelers anticipated a very long road to recovery for Nepal.
Spring in Nepal
But two years down the road, several NGO's and the Nepalese government are making steady progress, and if there ever was a time to plan your trekking in Nepal, it is now. Many trekking areas have been reopened already, and you'll contribute to the reconstruction efforts as tourism remains a major source of income for the local economy. o on top the fierce beauty of the Himalayas, your visit also helps the locals back on their feet.
Limitless possibilities to go trekking or mountaineering.
Trekking in Nepal, when and where?
At Go Beyond Asia, we always recommend spring and autumn as the best periods to go hiking, but spring has the added benefit of Nepal looking all crisp and green. The Everest region, the Annapurnas, but also the lesser known regions of Ganesh Himal and Bhairab Kunda have been reopened for trekking. Only Langtang Himal, an area close to Kathmandu is still not open for trekking. Situated very close to the epicenter of the 2015 earthquakes, this area experienced some of the worst tremors and there still is a lot of work to be done.
Why trekking in Nepal?
Whether you are in it for incredible views, bragging rights, thrill-seeking, or simply exploring, Nepal delivers. 10 of the world's 14 highest mountains are in Nepal, with limitless possibilities to go trekking or mountaineering.
Limitless possibilities to go trekking or mountaineering.
A lot of our guests combine trekking in Nepal with rafting or whitewater kayaking, as Nepalese rivers are considered some of the finest in the world.
So if you always wanted to go to Nepal, now is the time! Go Beyond the lowland. Go Himalaya!

Liam, your story about the rabbit was an awesome story. Just like you I love being creative. You are creative because you have a very creative story about the rabbit. Why did you want to write about a scientist who turned a real rabbit into a chocolate rabbit and then made his creation? I love your story by the way!ReplyDelete

Kangana poked Bobby's eyes
By: Subhash K. Jha IndiaFM
Wednesday, January 31, 2007
She's the power-house actress from Gangster and Woh Lamhe. But put her in a dancing shoes, and Kangana freezes. Ask Bobby Deol about it. "Not really. She's very good at the Indian steps. But she tends to get put off by the Western dancing. So while we were doing songs from Shaka Laka Boom Boom, she was uncomfortable."
Kangana kept stepping on Bobby's toes. "She even poked my eye during the dancing," laughed Bobby. "She's so tall! And yes, she kept stepping on my toes. But thank God she's so light-weight. Imagine what would happen to me if it was a heavy-weight heroine," Bobby laughs. "But seriously Kangana needs to get stronger. I kept telling her to have glucose between shots."
Bobby enjoys dancing. "I always have. It's a good form of release. But I don't go for the choreographed movement's as much as spontaneous moves. There're many movements that I still can't bring myself to do. For instance the pelvic gyration! It's become so routine now that it doesn't even look vulgar. But I can't do it! Likewise kissing scenes! Though I have said no to them so far, you never know about the future. My golden rule of living is never say never. That way you don't have to eat back your words."

Train under Gail Eder (Chief Instructor, 5th Dan) and Ray Eder (6th Dan)
Gail Eder, 5th Dan,
Chief Instructor, Warkworth Aikido
Gail practised Karate from 1979 until the end of 1988. She was awarded her Shodan in 1982 and Nidan in 1985. She represented New Zealand at APUKO championships in 1985 and 1987.
In early 1988 she began to practice Aikido as well and by the end of that year was totally committed to Aikido.
Gail was awarded her aikido Shodan by the late Ron Russell in 1992 and the late Hadyn Foster Sensei awarded her Nidan in 1995, Sandan in 1999 and Yondan in 2007. In 2016 she received her 5th Dan from the Directors of the Institute of Aikido UK.
Gail was inducted into the New Zealand Martial Arts Hall of Fame in November 2013.
Gail's ideas in presenting an Aikido class are foremost that it should be safe and enjoyable for everyone involved.
Her longstanding committment to teaching Aikido reflects the value she places on important positive influences aikido can have on participants and ultimately on the wider community.
Ray Eder,6th Dan,
Instructors Board director, Institute of Aikido N.Z.
Ray is the head of the Institute of Aikido New Zealand, the organisation to which our club is affiliated. He is also the Chief Instructor at Kyu Shin Do Aikido (North Shore), our parent club in Albany.
Ray has supported the Warkworth Aikido Club since it first started. The Albany club provided funding for mats and Ray has provided support for teaching, gradings and demonstrations.
Ray started Aikido training in 1982 with the late sensei Ron Russell who awarded Ray his Shodan in 1987, Nidan in 1988, and Sandan 1993. Haydn Foster Sensei who was Russell Sensei's teacher in England, graded Ray to Yondan in 2001 and Godan in 2006. Ray has been head of the Kyu Shin Do style of Aikido in New Zealand since 1994.
His approach to teaching is to apply the principles of Aikido aiming for a safe non threatening environment that is conducive to learning and allowing people to develop their own way. One of his favourite quotes from the founder of Aikido is "It (Aikido) is not for correcting others; it is for correcting your own mind". He tries to live by this precept and it is reflected in his style of teaching.
Ray was inducted into the Australasian Martial Arts Hall of Fame (AMAHOF) in August 2013 in the category "Instructor of the year - Aikido". He was promoted to 6th Dan by the Sokeship Council of AMAHOF in August 2016.

James Gunn's departure from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 quickly puts the entire project into question. The creator was scheduled to write and direct the third installment, just as he did the previous two films. But, now that Disney has fired him, what is going to happen to Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3?
As Phase 2 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe took shape, indie director James Gunn took a job that at the time looked to be a major risk. The Guardians of the Galaxy were an obscure comic book property just a few years ago, but the humorous and colorful approach on the big screen helped make this one of Marvel's biggest franchises. The first two films were incredibly well-received and made more than $1.6 billion combined. Marvel didn't waste any time announcing Gunn would return to close out the trilogy and he's spent the last year developing the project.
Related: Guardians of the Galaxy 3 Trailer, Cast, Every Update You Need To Know
All of this is expected to be for naught as Gunn has been fired as the writer/director of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. The news comes after old tweets resurfaced that included inappropriate and offensive attempts at humor. His sudden exit from the movie comes with production slated to begin early next year and a targeted (but never confirmed) 2020 release. So, what happens now?
- This Page: A New Director & Script Is Needed For Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3
- Page 2: How Will Gunn's Firing Affect The Future of the MCU?
Marvel Must Replace Gunn As Guardians of the Galaxy 3 Director
With Gunn no longer in the picture, the biggest role Marvel needs to fill is the director. Gunn was slated to be the first director to helm all three chapters of an MCU trilogy. And, even though he's no longer involved, he's going to have an impact. Disney may want to move away from Gunn as best they can, but the current iteration of the Guardians is infused with Gunn's DNA, especially with Awesome Mix Vol 1 & 2. Audiences now know what to expect when they see a Guardians of the Galaxy movie, and that's unlikely to change with Vol. 3 even if Gunn's name isn't attached.
Read More: Who Should Replace James Gunn As Guardians of the Galaxy 3 Director?
However, that doesn't make the job of replacement any easier. Unlike previous Disney director shuffling (see Solo: A Star Wars Story and Star Wars Episode IX), this was a quick decision based on public statements and not due to Gunn's work in shaping the next film. Marvel don't have their next move lined up already, as Lucasfilm did with bringing Ron Howard on for Solo and J.J. Abrams in for Episode IX. Disney and Marvel Studios are suddenly in a position where they need to find another creative mind to take over. That could come sooner than expected if the next director is also in charge of an expected new script...
Will the Guardians of the Galaxy 3 Script Start From Scratch?
Disney and Marvel don't just have to replace Gunn's role as a director, but also a screenwriter. Even though Nicole Perlman is credited on Guardians of the Galaxy, the first two movies are very much Gunn's creations. This was going to stay true on Vol. 3 as Marvel wasn't bringing another writer in to help Gunn punch up his own script. Similar with his absence as a director, whoever takes over will need to match the tone that Gunn's previously established.
Related: Is Adam Warlock the Main Antagonist Of Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3?
The bigger challenge, though, is creating the next story. Gunn has spent most of the last six years devoting his time and energy to telling more Guardians stories. He knows these characters better than anyone else and clearly had ideas for where they could go next. He already completed the script for Guardians Vol. 3, but if Marvel and Disney truly want to sever all ties to him they can't use it; if they use anything from Gunn's screenplay, then he would have the right to be credited for his work. This would depend on how much was ultimately used, but if Disney wants to move on, telling a completely different story is the best way to go.
The script and director hiring do go hand in hand depending on how Marvel proceeds. They could hire another writer/director to take full control of the franchise, or could hire a writer very soon to break the next story and then start meeting with directors as the script takes shape. Regardless of approach, filling both of these roles is a must, and - depending on when it happens - could impact when the next movie is actually seen.

Mechanique: A Tale of the Circus Tresaulti
This book has everything I ought to love in a book. It has a mysterious and magical circus, a number of strange characters, all in conflict with one another and with themselves. It has giant mechanical singing wings. I think I may have simply read it in the wrong mood.
The story is, as the title implies, the story of the Circus Tresaulti. It travels the world, in such a wide path that it might not visit any city twice in a resident's lifetime. The world is in ruins, wracked by wars and bad government and violence. The performers in the circus are all scarred. They've chosen the circus, even though it means allowing Boss to modify their bodies, to turn them into the partly mechanical performers she needs. The aerialists all have hollow bones, like birds. The strongman has gears in his back. The organist is also the organ. And more than one performer longs to be modified once more, to get the giant mechanical wings that once belonged to Alec, before he fell.
It really is an awfully good novel. It's simply that I just finished reading The Drowning Girl, which is another book full of lovely and elusive writing, shifting points of view, shifting points of reference in time. I like that, but do you know what I want to read now? A book with a clear beginning, middle, and end, in that order. One with more of a focus on the story itself than on the writing style. Characters whose motivations are understandable. Humor. For the moment, I want a little vacation from novels that have to be unraveled by me.
I really was enjoying Mechanique. I'll give it another try. If I'm in the mood for a magical circus story, I'll read Something Wicked This Way Comes. Or The Night Circus. But if I'm specifically in the mood for a magical mechanical postapocalyptic steampunky circus story, and in a mood to slow down and let the story unfold itself, I'll pick this one up again.

Should Turkey Be Accepted In The EU
Last updated: March 7, 2019
Should the European Union commit itself to including Turkey in the future, offering it a starting date for accession negotiations?
There is no obvious and widely accepted geographical definition of Europe.
Turkey's citizens may be Muslims, but the country is as firmly secular.
Turkey has a better history of democratic elections than a number of the former communist states.
Turkey is a large country in European terms.
Turkey is near some global flash points.
The EU has welcomed poorer entrants before without disaster.
Turkey was promised a chance to join the EU at the Helsinki summit in 1999.
Precedent (Romania and Bulgaria)
By essentially procrastinating on Turkey's case, the EU are discouraging Turkey from making the required changes to their legislature and norms and thus hindering their chances of accession; and yet there is not much point in doing so at present as EU elites seem hostile to Turkey ever being a future member state. Countries such as Hungary, Poland, and the Czech Republic were pressurized to reform at a rapid pace after being promised by the EU they would likely be in the EU in a relatively short period of time; Turkey has been given no such promises and so spending vast quantities of time and resources in preparing to make similar changes would be likely to be a poor investment.
Turkey should have even more 'right' to be in the EU as these states, as it formally applied for membership long before these states and should thus be given priority over them, not discouragement about future prospects of joining even as these states have since acceeded to the union.
It is the EU's attitudes and hostility to future membership that has hindered Turkey's bid for membership and has made efforts to appease Brussels essentially pointless.
Human Rights Record
As the European Court of Human Rights was set up to uphold principles set forth in the European Convention on Human Rights, which all member states are required to sign, this clearly poses somewhat of a problem. And in cases where judgments have been put forward by the European Court of Human Rights, Turkey is often loath to implement the advice of the court, as in the Loizidou Case, [[http://www.taa.gov.tr/proje/dersnotu/Zwaak-EfficiencyofECHR.pdf]].
In particular, Turkey represses its main minority, the Kurds and has been criticized for the routine use of torture by the Turkish armed forces in interrogations of PKK members and sympathizers. Amnesty International reports that over 400 detainees have been tortured to death since 1980. Human rights workers, journalists who report on the civil war, and doctors who attempt to provide medical care to wounded Kurds also are frequently arrested and tortured. During this decade, disappearances have also become common [[http://www.freedomhouse.org/template.cfm?page=363&year=2008&country=7508]]. The UN Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances reported that in 1994, there were over 50 disappearances in Turkey, more than in any other country [[http://www.unhchr.ch/Huridocda/Huridoca.nsf/TestFrame/efb18eb4337a6c768025672b003c3b30?Opendocument]].
Turkey refuses even to acknowledge that Kurds have a seperate culture and ethnicity, referring to them as 'Mountain Turks'. From Turkey's beginnings, Ataturk banned the use of the Kurdish languages and did not allow Kurds to be recognized as distinct from the Turkish people. Contemporary Turkish leaders clearly don't see the need to stop repressing the Kurdish people simply for wanting independence (and, let's face it, who could blame them?). This is a clear violation of human rights and contradicts the ethics on which the EU is based.
Animosity Between Turkey and Existing Member States, i.e. Greece
Free Labour Market - Turkish and Kurdish Migrants Would Flood to EU States with Better Living Standards
Most EU states are already going through a recession and credit crunch and are suffering enough without a potentially huge number of Turkish migrants legally given the right to live and work in 27 member states, but who would be expected to choose to reside mainly in the more prosperous member states such as the UK, Germany, France, Spain and Italy. This brings the fear of immigrants coming in significantly - especially for Germany, who by 2004 already had 1.739 million Turkish people living in Germany (one third of which are Kurds), [[http://www.faz.net/s/Rub594835B672714A1DB1A121534F010EE1/Doc~E0F99A1C8B80A445E84A70B8453383895~ATpl~Ecommon~SMed.html#F603AFF15A3548B08367A3ED2DB2733A]] who make up approx. one fourth of the immigrant population in Germany - to allow migrants to come in legally could potentially hinder Germany's economy significantly by increasing unemployment levels even further.
Fear of a Backlash Due to Turkey's Political and Religious Influences
However, proponents arguing for Turkey's bid for EU membership should consider that Turkey is a diverse country, arguably divided religiously and politically between the more liberal and moderate Western influence, and the more politically and religiously conservative influence (which continues to be an influence, although this influence tends to be focused more in East Turkey).
Should Turkey accede to the EU which is overwhelmingly liberal and whose laws supercede those of national laws, this would almost certainly lead to a backlash and political actions (which might not necessarily be democratic or non-violent) from the conservative influence over this perceived 'triumph' of liberalism within Turkey.
There are also persisting fears that if Turkey were to join, they would press 'Islamic' issues and concerns to the fore, and might clash with the EU in this respect, e.g. over Palestine, which, if the EU were to be perceived as not being in agreement with Turkey, might lead to opposition and hostility to the EU, which would not easily be resolved.
Stability of Turkey's Democracy
The nature of the struggle between Turkey's generals - who try and keep the country as secular as possible (arguably at the expense of taking away the right of the people to decide for themselves which party/representative best represents their views) and the increase in votes for conservative Islamic political views and, resultantly, influence of conservative Islamic political forces the generals want to avoid coming to the fore paves for an unstable political environment which is vulnerable [[http://www.nytimes.com/2007/05/01/opinion/01tue2.html]].
The EU surely cannot accept a government in which the military plays such a large role, and yet neither can it accept a member state with conservative Islamic leader, leaving the EU essentially with no option except to deny Turkey membership until it resolves this issue.
Military role is not a pretext for halting progress, but rather, a reason for speeding it up. we cannot open up the EU for perfect nations to come in, our goal is to help those who require aid to become a stable nation.
Turkey is not in Europe
True - a part of Turkey is in Europe but only a little part.
For the same reason we should be clear to Israel, Russia, Azerbaijan, Armenia and Georgia that they may not join. Russia could join if it split from Siberia.
If Turkey could join why not Iraq or Iran?
Then again Turkey is part of NATO and it is difficult to argue it is on the North Atlantic.
The answer to why not Iraq or Iran is indeed why not? But both would have an immense way to go. Turkey has been trying to be European for almost a century while Iran in particular rejects much of what it means to be European, so if they ever became secular democracies that are westward looking and are reasonably prosperous then indeed why not. But I would not expect the issue to arise for well over 50 years if ever (as by then everyone will be looking east not west!)
