Please use our bridging loan calculator to get a rough idea of the total cost of a bridging loan.
In bridging finance, monthly payments are not normally required unless requested. Instead the borrower receives the net loan amount and on repayment of that loan also repays any interest generated whilst the loan was outstanding.
The maximum LTV value this calculator works to is 75%, if the calculated LTV is any higher you will need to contact the office to obtain your calculation.
At the time of writing every conceivable effort has been taken to ensure the accuracy of the data provided however the calculator should be used as a guide only and cannot be taken as a formal offer of a loan or in any other manner. For a full illustration please call 0116 402 7982 or 0800 1691589 or email us email@example.com
When considering a bridging loan (a short term loan, until a longer term solution is available), the key aspect is its viability and this mostly likely indicator if this would be the bridging loan rates.
The bridging loan rate is the monthly or daily interest charged while the loan is outstanding i.e. before it is repaid. The rate can be determined by many factors such as whether the bridging loan is closed (guaranteed exit route for repayment of the loan) or open (less firm exit). Other aspects could be the size of the loan compared with the value of the property (this is known as Loan to Value or LTV), the type of security (residential property is currently a safer bet than commercial), whether the applicant has perfect credit etc.
A common use for bridging finance is when an ideal property is put on the market for sale but a client has yet to receive the money from the sale of their existing property. In this instance a closed bridging loan is when the existing property is on the market, sold and exchanged but has yet to complete. This will be looked at as a low risk for the lender as they will be confident of being repaid in the agreed time frame. If the existing property is yet to sell, this will be deemed as an open bridging loan. This type of bridging loan is viewed as a higher risk of guaranteed payment in the agreed time frame and as such may demand a higher interest rate from the lender.
Bridging loan rates could be influenced by the Bank of England Base Rate and depending on circumstances can vary between 0.58% and 1.5% per month.
A bridging loan typically runs from 0 - 12 months and in certain circumstances, this can be extended longer.
Typical bridging loan criteria is as follows:
The many recent press articles reporting upon the sustained and continual growth in the bridging finance market have been fully endorsed by bridgingloans.co.uk. Inquiry levels have increased at almost daily and unprecedented levels however the spike in volumes can create problems for traditional brokerages who have not strategized for this and customers changing data collecting preferences and who are unable to cope with the increased flow in what is now deemed as the new norm in the bridging and development finance market.
At bridgingloans.co.uk, we have found that many of our customers who are looking at bridging finance in the initial stages do not want physical or verbal contact but simply want all the information and data at hand so they can understand the workings and costs of bridging finance in their own time and often without the need or wish to involve an advisor. Bridging Finance is a niche but not overly complicated form of lending and much less common and far less understood than more traditional types of finance such as mortgage finance.
Customers thinking that they potentially may need a bridging loan and who are unaware of how a bridging loan works now more often than not prefer to browse a simple and straight forward site such as that available at www.bridgingloans.co.uk and be able to have numerous attempts at our specially created calculator which allows full access to multiple different financial applications. In this scenario, once a client finds a situation that fits their budget and that visually shows an accurate picture on all affordability issues, if they then wish, they can call and discuss their bridging finance requirements in more detail with a fully qualified advisor to ensure that in practice this is a product they can afford and is suitable for their needs.
The site itself and its fully automated and accurate calculator is available 24 hours a day and 7 days a week enabling this requirement to be met and experienced staff at bridgingloans.co.uk can be contacted by email or telephone from 9 - 9 daily. The simplicity and accuracy of the bridgingloans.co.uk calculator has given rise to numerous positive reviews and a large section of those using the calculator and who call our office to discuss their needs benefit from being in a much more informed state and with a far greater understanding of how bridging finance works.
Bridging Finance does not fit every budget and every scenario but the site and calculator allows easy access for the customer to establish this during the initial fact finding operation and the extended availability of the staff allows advice and recommendations to be given by fully trained, qualified and experienced individuals at bridgingloans.co.uk and allows any prospective borrower to make an informed choice on what is and is not right for them.

"Using the bridging loan calculator saved me loads of time deciding whether or not I could afford the bridging loan I needed. The bridging loan repayments calculator worked out the rates in advance for me and did make the difference in me taking out the loan I needed. All loan sites should have one! Thanks to your team for a quick turnaround." - Rudolph Johnson
"This loan calculator is great! I worked out the rates and length of time I could afford the repayments. I did not expect this and cannot believe all loans sites do not have a calculator like this so people can easily work out the loan they can afford. Good work guys and thanks again for the quick turnaround." - Marlon Scot
"I was able to calculate the amount my loan was for and the time know the time allowed for me to pay back the bridging loan. I great calculator and very useful." - Roger Furgurson
"I was unsure what to expect financially as I needed cash quick and I was unsure of the loan rates available. Using this bridging loan calculator assisted me to understand what finance packages are available that I could afford and the time allocated to pay back the bridging loan was included. Quality calculator and not sure why all finance companies don't have one." - Jason Steenkamp
"Knowing what I was getting into before finalising the application helped me to gage the loan rates I could afford. Useful loan calculator and easy to use." - Richard Seaman
"Using your bridging loan calculator helped me decide to proceed on using a bridging loan to get the cash I need for my second property. The bridging loan rates were more affordable than initially anticipated - great tool!'" - Jaff Nasser

Mark Foley
Thanks Nick. Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you for joining today's conference call. Our results for the third quarter of 2013 were exceptionally strong and better than expected. Q3 revenue of $29.5 million was up 64% year-over-year and 12% sequentially. Our growth was driven by an increasing leadership position in the non-invasive, fat reduction market and continued execution of our bifurcated sales force building upon its momentum form the first half of this year. Armed with market leading technology, our account managers continued successfully and predictably expand on installed system base while our Practice Support Specialists leveraged on hands treatment protocol, treatment to transformation and approve training and education initiative to drive greater utilization. At the core of success thus far has been an ongoing commitment to delivering outstanding patient outcome, a commitment partnering with our physician practices and a commitment to driving awareness through our cooperative advertising campaign, a new marketing initiative.
Our third quarter results further increased our confidence that the changes we have implemented are resulting in more predictable and sustainable growth. As a result, we are raising our full revenue guidance to approximately 40% year-over-year growth in 2013, up from 20%. Due to our focus North America continued to be the main contributor to our over performance. But we are beginning to see positive signs in our international markets. Additionally, we've demonstrated strong discipline in our cash management this year and have significantly reduced our year-over-year cash burn. Patrick will give full guidance detail and our improved cash projections during his financial overview.
With our strong Q3 results and projected Q4 performance, we feel it would be helpful to give a preliminary range of our expected growth in 2014. Although, we liked 2013 with a very high growth rate, this performance is amplified due to lower revenue comparable in the second half of 2012. Also with the strong 2013 performance the comparisons for 2014 will become harder. At this early stage, we believe a growth rate between 15% to 20% for the full year 2014 is achievable and our prior comment to generating cash by the middle of 2014 still hold true.
As we have done on prior earnings call, we will touch on those areas of the business we believe are driving our growth to give some insights into our third quarter and rest of year performance. So we start with the market. Starting with the addressable market, we continue to believe we are in the early stages of not only penetrating the existing market but also seeing rapid expansion of the market as non-invasive, fat reduction and body contouring gain traction with the end user patient. As we broaden our installed base and grow the utilization of CoolSculpting, we continue to gain a deeper understanding of the long-term market opportunity for both treatments and systems. Previously, we've talked about the base aesthetic market of 30,000 practices worldwide and the company's initial focus on penetrating 5000 of this market leading practices. We are currently in about 1700 of those practices and our success to date in further diligence on the market opportunity suggest that we can likely go much deeper into base aesthetic market than initially anticipated. Additionally, we find the CoolSculpting practices continue to add multiple systems in order to increase their throughput and to handle increasing patient demand. Our market research continues to demonstrate that CoolSculpting is changing practice dynamic by driving new non-aesthetic patients into the aesthetic channel. At our Investor Day meeting in New York last month, Dr. Grant Stevens presented his published pre reviewed paper on the success of CoolSculpting in attracting new patients whereby 66% of it is CoolSculpting patients were new to his practice was 52% of that being completely new to aesthetics. This supports our ongoing believe that CoolSculpting can and is drawing new patients into the aesthetics channel. We believe the ability to drive new patients into the channel combined with high new procedure conversion rate is on tested in the aesthetic space.

IMPORTANT: HOW TO USE THIS INFORMATION: This is a summary and does NOT have all possible information about this product. This information does not assure that this product is safe, effective, or appropriate for you. This information is not individual medical advice and does not substitute for the advice of your health care professional. Always ask your health care professional for complete information about this product and your specific health needs.
COMMON BRAND NAME(S): Dolophine, Methadose
WARNING: Methadone has a high risk for abuse. It can also cause severe, possibly fatal, breathing problems and heartbeat problems. These problems are more likely to happen when this medication is first started, or when you are switching from another narcotic drug to methadone, or when the dose is increased. Breathing problems from methadone may not happen right away after taking a dose. Most heartbeat problems have happened in people using large doses of methadone for pain relief, but this problem can also occur in people taking smaller doses to treat narcotic drug addiction. Do not increase your dose or take this medication more often than directed. Get medical help right away if you notice unusual slow/shallow breathing, fast/irregular heartbeat, severe dizziness, or fainting.
Before using this medication, women of childbearing age should talk with their doctor(s) about the risks and benefits. Pregnancy may affect the amount of this drug in your body, so tell your doctor if you are pregnant or if you plan to become pregnant. During pregnancy, this medication should be used only when clearly needed. It may slightly increase the risk of birth defects if used during the first two months of pregnancy. Also, using it for a long time or in high doses near the expected delivery date may harm the unborn baby. To lessen the risk, take the smallest effective dose for the shortest possible time. Babies born to mothers who use this drug for a long time may develop severe (possibly fatal) withdrawal symptoms. Tell the doctor right away if you notice any symptoms in your newborn baby such as slow/shallow breathing, irritability, shaking, persistent crying, vomiting, diarrhea, poor feeding, or difficulty gaining weight.
Keep this medicine in a safe place to prevent theft, misuse, or abuse. If a child accidentally swallows this drug, get medical help right away.
USES: This medication is used to treat severe ongoing pain (such as due to cancer). Methadone belongs to a class of drugs known as narcotic (opiate) analgesics. It works in the brain to change how your body feels and responds to pain.
Do not use this medication to relieve pain that is mild or that will go away in a few days (such as pain from surgery). This medication is not for occasional ("as needed") use.
This medication is also used to treat addiction to narcotic drugs (such as heroin) as part of an approved treatment program. It helps prevent withdrawal symptoms caused by stopping other narcotic drugs.
HOW TO USE: See also Warning section.
Read the Medication Guide and Patient Information Leaflet if available from your pharmacist before you start using methadone and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
Take this medication by mouth on a regular schedule as directed by your doctor and not as needed for sudden (breakthrough) pain. You may take this drug with or without food. If you have nausea, it may help to take this drug with food. Ask your doctor or pharmacist about other ways to decrease nausea (such as lying down for 1 to 2 hours with as little head movement as possible).
If you are using the liquid form of this medication, measure the dose carefully using a special measuring device/spoon. Do not use a household spoon because you may not get the correct dose.
The dosage is based on your medical condition and response to treatment.
This medication may cause withdrawal reactions, especially if it has been used regularly for a long time or in high doses. In such cases, withdrawal symptoms (such as restlessness, watering eyes, runny nose, nausea, sweating, muscle aches) may occur if you suddenly stop using this medication. To prevent withdrawal reactions, your doctor may reduce your dose gradually. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for more details, and report any withdrawal reactions immediately.
When this medication is used for a long time, it may not work as well. Talk with your doctor if this medication stops working well.
This medication may rarely cause abnormal drug-seeking behavior (addiction). This risk may be increased if you have abused alcohol or drugs in the past. Take this medication exactly as prescribed to lessen the risk of addiction. Stopping methadone maintenance treatment has a high risk of return to narcotic drug abuse.
Tell your doctor if your condition persists or worsens.

Is there a method though it wants to test when the application is updated?
I am embarrassed because there is a bug that occurs only when the application is updated, and it doesn't investigate.
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
Is there a method though it wants to test when the application is updated?
I am embarrassed because there is a bug that occurs only when the application is updated, and it doesn't investigate.
If you are asking if you want to find when the application is updated through app store, I am not aware of such a method.
A hackie approach to do this is to save the current app version to NSUserDefaults, then check if the NSUserDefaults app version is equal to the current app version.
For example:
I haven't tested the code, but it should work.
Instead of running your app from Xcode, you can drag the app to your iTunes. After this, the app will be installed by the iTunes when you sync (you will need to have the provisioning profile installed, but if you can run thru Xcode, you already have it). You can then drag the newer version of the app to the iTunes and update it by doing a sync (make sure you changed the app version, or iTunes won't update the app).
I don't know if it will be exacly the same process that occur in the update, but I believe it's the best we can do to test it.
this might help as it is apple recommended way to test updates in your app http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#technotes/tn2285/_index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/DTS40011323
The best approach would be to create an ipa file with your development provisioning profile of the old version of the app. Some have mentioned that you can sync this file with iTunes. Actually that's not the easiest way; use the X-Code organizer instead to drag the ipa file to your device under "Devices" > [Your device name] > "Applications". This will install the old version of your application instantaneously.
At this point, it may be important to start your app at this point and recreate whatever situation you are trying to recreate exactly. (Note: the X-Code organizer allows you to transfer files in/out of your Sandbox using the "Download" and "Upload" tabs at the bottom of the Organizer on the Devices tab, so it may not be necessary to perform all state creation logic manually.)
Once the old app is installed and in the state you are trying to recreate, you can launch the new app on top of the old one, or deploy a new ipa from Test-Flight/X-Code Organizer.
Particularly when launching from the debugger, it seems as if the bundle/sandbox location does not/may not change; when updating from Test-Flight it does. It's not clear to me at the present time whether that location can change on an actual app update from iTunes, but it's definitely something you'd want to account for in testing.

Locating Sounds Around the Screen
Today's large-size computer screens can display a wealth of information easily enough to overload the user's visual perceptual channel. Looking for a remedy for this effect, we research into providing additional acoustic cues through surround sound speakers mounted around the screen. In this paper, we demonstrate the results of user evaluations of interaction with screen elements using the surround-screen setup. Results of these tests have shown that applying surround-screen sound can enhance response times in a simple task, and that users can localize the approximate origin of a sound when played back with this technique.

In Rare Non-Broadway-Related News
The city council chose smart, wonky city staffer Ben Noble as its new central staff director yesterday, ending a months-long wait to see who would replace brainy economic analyst Saroja Reddy as head of the council's research and analysis division. Central staffers, unlike council aides, work for the council as a whole; the council has frequently used their analysis to call bullshit on Mayor Nickels's development proposals. Noble, who has been on central staff since 2000, has been serving as interim central staff director since Reddy took a job at the Gates Foundation.

I'm using all these plugins together, and I'm having a hard time figuring out how to get my individual site's attachment files served via the CDN.
When I click on upload attachments, it successfully upload the files to CloudFront in my S3 bucket, but they are inside a directory called /files, so all the attachments from all my sites end up in the same directory, rather than in, say, /wp-content/blogs.dir/24/files
Is this the intended behavior? It seems like there is a big potential problem with duplicate filenames from multiple sites.
Or have I got something misconfigured

Zwan was lacking originality, and every song sounded the same as the last. Ride A Black Swan and Declarations Of Faith are really the only songs on the CD worthy of keeping on a playlist.
The Future Embrace felt more like an ego-trip than Zeitgeist did to me. Though, to be fair I loved and still love All Things Change and A100.
So basically I only enjoyed two songs from each of his last two attempts at salvaging what was once at least (my) favorite bands. I will purchase Zeitgeist when it finally hits the shelves.

Andy Rooney, 92, Says Goodbye To CBS's '60 Minutes'
Longtime CBS 60 Minutes commentator Andy Rooney has retired from his weekly job after his 1097th on-air essay. The 92-year-old Rooney said goodbye to viewers Sunday night
DAVID GREENE, host: Let's turn now to another legend. Andy Rooney made his last regular appearance last night on CBS's "60 Minutes."
ANDY ROONEY: This is a moment I've dreaded. I wish I could do this forever.
LYNN NEARY, host: Over the last 30-plus years, Rooney's cultural essays have become a weekly staple. Here's an excerpt from one of our favorites.
ROONEY: People like to think that lovable old Andy Rooney still uses his 1920 Underwood typewriter. Well, sorry to disappoint you, but he doesn't. I wrote eight books on that and thousands of television scripts, but I've written on a computer for several years now. It's a great tool for a writer - but maddening.
Actually, I've written on a lot of computers. I had one typewriter for 50 years, but I've bought seven computers in six years. I suppose that's why Bill Gates is rich and Underwood is out of business.
GREENE: Well, he wrote more than a thousand essays. Rooney almost defined what it means to be a curmudgeon. When asked in last night's broadcast if he looks for trouble, Rooney said, no, it actually comes naturally. And he explained why he doesn't respond to viewer mail.
ROONEY: Who would want to answer an idiot who has the bad sense to write me a letter?
NEARY: The 92-year-old Rooney was asked on the CBS show what he would do if he had his life to live over again.
ROONEY: If I had my life to live over again, I'd be on television. I'd get on "60 Minutes" if I could and I'd do a piece every week of my own. I'd write it and say it. And that's what I'd like to do best.
NEARY: Andy Rooney on his last regular "60 Minutes" appearance.
And this is MORNING EDITION from NPR News. I'm Lynn Neary.
GREENE: And I'm David Greene.

Sony Vaio laptop concepts see a tablet future (pictures)Pocket-lint
Sony has revealed a possible future for its Vaio laptops at CES 2012 in Las Vegas, showing off two very different concept designs behind glass.
The first Vaio concept (above) It is a two part solution; a thin curvy looking screen and a thin curvy looking keyboard.
In the design mock-up on show, the screen is able to stand thanks to a bulbous panel at the rear, while in a second model in the same box the bulbous behind has disappeared.
They could be two separate options, or as we like to think, a design that expands and retracts when needed. That sounds far more fun.
If that doesn't sound like your cup of tea then maybe the second will. It is a tablet style Vaio that slides back to reveal a keyboard and stylus beneath. If the design looks familar, it's because Asus revealed a tablet with a slide out keyboard called the Eee Pad Slider at CES 2011 pipping Sony to the post by a production unit that actually went on sale in 2011.
The Asus model was based on being a tablet first and then a laptop second, however it appears from talking to Sony representatives on the company's stand at CES that the Vaio would take the laptop first, tablet second, approach. That's likely to be a very strong possibility thanks to the upcoming launch of Windows 8 expected later in the year that plans to let Windows users enjoy a split personality from their OS.
For those not fussed with typing on a keyboard, the laptop also comes with a stylus that slots in to the Vaio laptop in front of the large trackpad and can be used to make notes on the screen.
Sadly there is no word on whether this the two Sony Vaio future concepts will ever make it into production or even if they would ever go on sale in their current form.
What do you think of the designs? Let us know in the comments below.

Sol "Slick" Halfon of Beverly Hills Passed Away at His Home
Sol Halfon past president of the Sephardic Home for the Aged, and Maimonides Academy, Jewish Yeshiva Los Angeles, died at his Beverly Hills Home
October 24, 1924 - September 7, 2012
Sol "Slick" Halfon of Beverly Hills passed away peacefully Friday morning (September 7, 2012), in his home surrounded by his wife and his three children, following a long battle with a neurodegenerative disorder. He was just shy of his 88th birthday. He was born on Rivington Street on the Lower East Side of Manhattan in 1924, the second child of Nissim and Lenora Halfon. He grew up on Hooper Street in Williamsburg, attending PS 16 and Eastern District High School. He developed his baseball pitching skills on the streets of Brooklyn, and his unmatched salesmanship working alongside his father in his concession stands on the Staten Island Ferry and at St Nicholas Auditorium. A lifelong Giants fan, he suffered the hazing of his Yankee rooting brother, and Dodger loving father, which resulted in his mother serving most of his meals in his room during baseball season. He got his nickname "Slick" soon after his bar-mitzvah, while burnishing his skills in Brooklyn's pool halls. The nickname served him well when he started boxing in local clubs, and as he became ping pong ace with his neighborhood pals. When WW II broke out he was sixteen, enlisting in the Navy at his first opportunity, and sailing off to D-Day as a radioman on the LST 73. En route to the beaches in Normandy, he distinguished himself as ping pong champ of his ship, and was ferried from boat to boat, challenging the best players on other ships, as they crossed the Atlantic. After the war, he followed his parents to Los Angeles, attending the University of Southern California, and becoming a pharmacist. He met and married his beloved wife Catherine Cohen, daughter of Marco and Amelie Cohen, through the tight-knit Sephardic community of Jews who hailed from the island of Rhodes, where each of their parents were born. He launched his career working for Thrifty Drugs in Los Angeles and Banner Drug in Redondo Beach, and then struck out on his own to establish the Morningside Medical Pharmacy, on Manchester Blvd in Los Angeles, and Hillcrest Medical Pharmacy in Inglewood. For the next 30 years, he was an ever beaming and friendly presence inside the pharmacy and a frequent volunteer in his community. He served as a volunteer pharmacist at the Los Angeles Free Clinic for many years, during its early days, in the late 1960s. He was an active member of his synagogue, the Sephardic Hebrew Center, and later at Sephardic Temple Tiferet Israel in Westwood. He was president of the Sephardic Home for the Aged, and served on the board of the Jewish Home for the Aged. He helped establish Maimonides Academy, Jewish Yeshiva in the Mid-Wilshire area of Los Angeles. His greatest joy came from his dedication to helping children. An avid baseball fan, and frustrated pitcher, who aspired but never made it to the big leagues, he spent 14 years coaching little league in Beverly Hills at Roxbury Park. Even after his sons Neal and Marty aged out of Little League, Slick continued to coach for more than a decade. It was not unusual for kids to ride their bikes to Coach Slick's home on Bedford Drive, during the off season, to see if he could come out and play with them on street in front of his house. One of his friends observed "that you can take the kid out of Brooklyn, but you can never take Brooklyn out of the kid". Even after starting their own professional careers as doctors, attorneys and bankers, many of his former Little League players would seek him out to thank him for his dedication, for many lessons, and for giving them a lifelong love of baseball. He instilled in his own children and grandchildren not only a deep sense of gratitude, a commitment to public service, and an irrational dedication to the SF Giants. Later, and as the epitome of the doting grandfather, it was not unusual for Slick to show up at dawn, outside the house of one of his own kids, waiting for everyone to wake up so he could assume his grandfatherly duties of feeding and playing, and teaching them to enjoy life as he did. He will be remembered for his lively love of people, his exuberant sense of humor, and the ever present twinkle in his eye. He is survived by his devoted and adored wife of 63 years, Catherine Halfon, and children Neal (Jessica Laufer), Lianne (Michael Bortman), and Marty (Eden Small), and grandchildren Ethan Berger, Isaac Halfon, Emma Halfon, Caitlyn Halfon, and Sam Halfon.

Sasha Moorsom Young, 1931-1993
As one of the BBC's first women producers, Sasha Young brought the poems of Ted Hughes and Philip Larkin to a Radio Three audience years before they became household names. She was also instrumental in encouraging Jean Rhys to resume her writing career in the fifties when she chose one of her short stories to be broadcast. She published two novels herself, the first of which, The Lavender Trip, won two first novel awards in 1976. Her most recent discovery was Mary Sietmann who, after being urged by Sasha to continue with her writing, published her first novel, Jumping The Queue, under the name Mary Wesley.
She met her husband, Lord Young of Dartington, in 1958 when she thought his recently published book, Family and Kinship in East London, would make a good subject for a radio programme. Two years later they were married and, though she abandoned her career at the BBC, she remained an energetic contributor to the arts, spending as much time nurturing the talents of others as developing her own.
She was born in 1931 at Ramsdean End, Hants, the daughter of Raisley and Ann Moorsom. She was brought up in a literary atmosphere, with Lytton Strachey, Goldsworthy Lowes-Dickinson and Arthur Waley being frequent visiors to the family home. During the war she was educated in South Africa, returning to England in 1946 to go to Bedales. She went up to Cambridge in 1950 where she became a celebrated beauty. She was described by the News Chronicle as "a study of undergraduate elegance" and The Star as "Cambridge University's 'Zuleika Dobson'".
She Joined the Amateur Dramatic Club in her first term where directors like Peter Hall and John Barton eagerly competed for her talents. She made a particularly captivating Viola in Twelfth Night, managing to "pull the stage into the palm of her hand," according to Varsity, no mean feat given Mark Boxer's set designs. The ADC's production of The Comedy of Errors was sufficiently good to run for a brief time in London where it attracted the attention of The Times. "Miss Sasha Moorsom makes a delicious minx of Luciana," wrote the theatre critic. In spite of all this activity she managed to take a double first in English.
After leaving the BBC she combined raising two children with editing the education magazine, Where?, and writing a regular column for The Listener. Her first novel, The Lavender Trip, which she published under the name Sasha Moorsom, was a love story set in Provence, a part of the world she was intimately familiar with having spent Summers there all her life. It won two first novel awards, from the Yorkshire Post and the Authors Club, and was selected by the New Fiction Society. In 1983 she published a second novel, In The Shadow of the Paradise Tree, a satirical account of life among the ex-patriots at an East African university based on her experience working for the National Extension College with her husband in Nigeria.
Writing was far from her only talent. She was an accomplished painter, photographer and sculptress, exhibiting and selling to a large group of fans. She was also a prodigious organiser. She set up the Lauderdale House arts centre in Highgate, raising hundreds of thousands of pounds to renovate the burnt-out building, and helped establish the Open College of the Arts, now part of the Open University. Perhaps the greatest tribute to her organising skills, as well as her generosity, was the concert she organised for her friend the composer Anthony Scott less than four weeks before she died. In spite of being in the final stages of cancer, she managed to attend the concert in her wheelchair.
Towards the end of her life she developed a keen interest in Buddhism, which she was introduced to by her daughter Sophie, a Buddhist. This was unquestionably a source of great comfort to her in her last months when Sophie, who looked after her throughout, rarely left her side. Among all her other talents, Sasha Young was also a poet, having had poems published in The Observer and The New Statesman. A few days before she died she wrote the following verse:
Ah, the company of the birds
I loved and cherished on earth
Now freed of flesh we fly
Together, a flock of beating wings,
I am as light, as feathery,
As gone from gravity we soar
In endless circles.

GSD Course Bulletin - Fall 2008
This term's information was last refreshed on 08 MAY 2015 15:46:03.
Courses taught by Peter Del Tredici
06218 [M1]: Plants and Technology I (SCI 0621800)
Landscape Architecture
Lecture - 2 credits
This course is a module. It lasts the first half of the semester only.
Tuesday 8:30 - 10:00 Gund 517
Thursday 2:30 - 5:30 Gund 517
Peter Del Tredici
Course Description
This course is devoted to understanding basic biological principals and horticultural practices that affect the growth of plants in the human landscape and determine the success or failure of landscape designs. We will cover the identification of the basic palate of woody plants commonly available in the Northeast, and their appropriate landscape use.
06442: Ecological Strategies for Disturbed Sites (SCI 0644200)
Landscape Architecture
Lecture - 4 credits
Wednesday 8:30 - 11:30 Gund 318
Peter Del Tredici
Course Description
This applied lecture and workshop course focuses on the reuse and reconstruction of derelict and minimally managed urban landscapes. Emphasis will be placed on strategies for establishing sustainable plant communities on such public sites and encouraging their productive reuse by humans. The course will examine the challenges and opportunities of post-industrial land as well as the regulatory, public health, and technological aspects involved in the remediation of polluted sites. Seminar presentations and class discussions with the instructor and invited guest lecturers will focus on the interdependence between science, technology and design in addressing the issue of degraded landscapes. The lecture/discussion portion of the course will be supported by field trips to disturbed landscapes in the surrounding Greater Boston Area, including: the capped landfill on Spectacle Island in Boston Harbor, a remediated brownfield site on the campus of Wellesley College, and a wetlands area within the Charles River watershed. Local experts and/or officials will accompany the class on these trips. The seminar is intended to act as a broad introduction and overview to the subject of the adaptive reuse of post-industrial landscapes. It will also act as a bridge for students between earlier basic core courses in planning, design and environmental studies and more advanced individual research topics, including independent study, thesis preparation and option design studios. PREREQUISITES:Enrollment is open to all students of graduate standing. A similar class taught by the instructor last year included landscape architects, architects, urban planners, urban designers, environmental scientists, and public policy majors. Enrollment came from students from the Harvard Design School, MIT, and students undertaking advanced programs such as MDes, DDes and the Loeb Fellowship Program. The instructor welcomes interest from students with a wide range of academic and/or professional backgrounds. Grades will be based on an oral presentation and research paper covering a case study of the student's choosing.

Development and targeting efforts by academic organizations to effectively promote research integrity can be enhanced if they are able to collect reliable data to benchmark baseline conditions, to assess areas needing improvement, and to subsequently assess the impact of specific initiatives. To date, no standardized and validated tool has existed to serve this need. A web- and mail-based survey was administered in the second half of 2009 to 2,837 randomly selected biomedical and social science faculty and postdoctoral fellows at 40 academic health centers in top-tier research universities in the United States. Measures included the Survey of Organizational Research Climate (SORC) as well as measures of perceptions of organizational justice. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses yielded seven subscales of organizational research climate, all of which demonstrated acceptable internal consistency (Cronbach's α ranging from 0.81 to 0.87) and adequate test–retest reliability (Pearson r ranging from 0.72 to 0.83). A broad range of correlations between the seven subscales and five measures of organizational justice (unadjusted regression coefficients ranging from 0.13 to 0.95) document both construct and discriminant validity of the instrument. The SORC demonstrates good internal (alpha) and external reliability (test–retest) as well as both construct and discriminant validity.
