English language turns into big business asset
As the international language of business, the teaching of English has turned into an industry worth £1 billion a year
Pearson's revenues from English Language teaching exceeded £300m last year (Janine Wiedel)
The last remaining manuscript of what became the Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary was smuggled out of wartime Japan by AS Hornby, an English teacher. At the time he cannot have realised the importance of his actions.
Nearly seven decades and many editions later, the dictionary, the first aimed at foreign learners of English, has sold more than 36m copies and remains the best-selling title at Oxford University Press.
As English has become the international language of business, the teaching of it has turned into an industry worth £1 billion a year.
"Probably the single biggest growth opportunity we have is around the teaching of English," said John Fallon, chief executive of Pearson's international education business. The company's most eye-catching recent move was to buy 66 language schools in China, with plans to open another 50. Pearson's revenues from English language teaching exceeded £300m last year, with annual growth of more than 10%.
A 2006 British Council report predicted the number of people learning English worldwide would swell to 2 billion by 2020. These aspiring Anglophones, along with their teachers, schools, governments and employers, are all potential customers for a huge array of books and course materials.
The market is dominated by four players, all British in origin. They are Pearson, Oxford University Press, Cambridge University Press and Macmillan, now part of German group Holtzbrinck.
"Most people think we are just an academic press," said Stephen Bourne, chief executive at Cambridge. "The thing that they are surprised by is that within the next couple of years English language teaching will be 50% of our entire business. It has grown very rapidly in the past three years."
Bourne has watched English become the world's leading language. "The decline in French has been rapid," he said. "We are now selling English language courses for Francophone Africa. They are not abandoning French but they are using English for international business."
There are opportunities pretty much everywhere in a rapidly globalising world, with China, India and Latin America among the key growth areas. Kate Worlock, author of a report on the sector for the consultancy firm Outsell, has calculated that revenues from English language teaching grew 7% a year between 2006 and 2009 and are set to go on rising at 6% a year until 2013.
Until recently, the British companies had the field pretty much to themselves, with the Americans largely uninterested. In fact, Interchange, the leading adult course in American English, is produced by Cambridge University Press.
But things have changed with the emergence of Cengage Learning as a fifth leading player in recent years, while Disney burst on to the scene in 2008 with a programme to launch language schools in China.
The greater competitive challenge comes from the move to digital technology. Although English language teaching is still quite immature in this respect — digital accounts for only 12% of revenues, according to Worlock — demand for online services is likely to grow fast.
"Competition is getting more intense," said Peter Marshall, managing director of the English language teaching division at Oxford University Press. "It's very competitive but there is healthy collaboration and experimentation as well.
One reason Oxford University Press and the British companies have been success- ful is that there is a strong tradition of innovation."
Bourne said digital tech- nology will help sales, citing the example a recent £15m three-year deal in Turkey.
Worlock believes the publishers' ability to charge need not be threatened by free technology: "For students who really need to learn the language and speak it fluently, these sites will not be valuable on their own." Publishers have established digital programmes, she added. "They are not behind the curve."

The Andy Griffith Show - The Complete Fourth SeasonDirector: Aaron Ruben, Coby Ruskin, Earl Bellamy
Cast: Aaron Ruben, Andy Griffith, Coby Ruskin, Earl Bellamy
The fourth season of The Andy Griffith Show opens with one of the series' finest episodes, as well as the favorite episode of co-star Ronny Howard (now better known as film director Ron Howard). "Opie the Birdman" poignantly details the efforts by Opie Taylor (Howard), son of Mayberry sheriff Andy Taylor (Andy Griffith), to take care of several newly hatched robins after accidentally killing the mother bird with his slingshot. The rest of the season maintains the high standards of this opener, with such classic episodes as "Ernest T. Bass Joins the Army," featuring Howard Morris as the titular rock-throwing village idiot; "A Black Day for Mayberry," in which Andy and his nervous deputy Barney Fife (Don Knotts) prepare for the arrival of a top secret gold shipment from Denver; "Up in Barney's Room," the saga of the acrimonious falling out and tearful reconciliation between Barney and his landlady Mrs. Mendelbright (Enid Markey); "Barney's Side Car," or how a man can be corrupted by a WWI vintage motorcycle; "Divorce. Mountain Style," in which the rambunctious Darling family once more descend upon Mayberry, with a pre-Gilligan's Island Bob Denver along for the ride; "The Return of Malcolm Merriwether," another visit from Mayberry's favorite English valet (Bernard Fox); and the unforgettable "Citizen's Arrest," chronicling a war of nerves between Barney and indignant gas station attendant Gomer Pyle (Jim Nabors). Speaking of Gomer, this would be the last year that this remarkable character would appear regularly on The Andy Griffith Show. The series' season finale, "Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C.," serves as the pilot for the popular military sitcom in which Jim Nabors would headline from 1964 through 1970. Season four of The Andy Griffith Show found the series still flourishing in the ratings, ranking as America's fifth most popular program.

Two Women (1999), written and directed by Tahmineh Milani, is an
Iranian film shown as part of the Alan Lutkus International Film Series
at SUNY Geneseo. (Persian title "Do zan.")
This movie follows the lives of two women whom we first encounter when one of them calls the other because of a family crisis.
The film then flashes back to the friendship of the women during their university days. Niki Karimi plays Fereshteh, a brilliant student. Marila Zare'i is cast as Roya, an intelligent woman, but no intellectual match for Fereshteh.
As fate would have it, Roya achieves relative independence in her marriage and professional life in Teheran. Fereshteh is trapped in a stultifying existence in a rural area.
Anyone who has read "Reading Lolita in Teheran" knows about the almost unbelievable repression of women in present-day Iran. This film personalizes that experience, by showing us a bright, amiable, attractive woman crushed by the weight of a society that is totally dominated by men.
This movie is grim and disturbing. However, it's well acted, and portrays what I believe to be the reality of the status of women in a fundamentalist culture.
The film verges on old-fashioned melodrama at some points, especially near the end, but the acting is solid and, overall, this is a film worth seeking out and seeing.
(The Alan Lutkus International Film Series at SUNY Geneseo is presented by the Office of the Provost, several academic departments, and the IFS Committee.)
"Two Women" was screened before 1,500 moviegoers in a sold out house at the
4th Annual Roger Ebert Overlooked Film Festival in April 2002 at the
Virginia Theatre in Champaign, Illinois.
Writer/Director Tahmineh Milani flew from Iran to be Roger Ebert's guest at the film festival showing of her most outstanding movie.
Following the showing T. Milani received a standing ovation as Roger Ebert escorted her on stage, where she answered questions about her life and the making of this true life Iranian story.
She explained about the customs of the Iranian people pertaining to the freedom of Iranian women in that country. This movie was a true story of one of T. Milani's friend's life. Ms. Milani stated that currently about 50 percent of her country's male population believes that way.
There were two wonderful female stars in the film. Niki Karimi played Fereshteh and Marila Zare'i played the role of her friend, Roya. These two female Iranian actors showed superb acting ability and dedication to their acting craft. This movie was, by far, so different than other formula movies cranked out by the movie industry. While other movies may be hard to remember years later, this film will remain on the moviegoer's mind for time to come. It was that powerful and intense.
The movie was spoken in Farsi speech (with English subtitles) but that did not diminish from the understanding of the film. One gets absorbed into the film and easily follows the story line.
A crazed maniac character, Hassan, played by Mohammad Reza Forutan was menacing, scary, and believable. You would not want Hassan stalking you as he stalked Fereshteh. He is a fine and scary actor!
Atila Pesiani played Ahmad, Fereshteh's arranged marriage husband. Ahmad is "traditional" and jealous of Fereshteh trying to have a personal life of enrichment. Although a "good man" in his heart, he follows the old Iranian customs whereby a women cannot do anything in public by herself and must have a male family member with her wherever she goes.
Reza Khandan played Fereshteh's traditional father who arranges his daughter's marriage to an older man. Fereshteh's father displays a false pride and shame of everything that his daughter does.
The enlightenment comes to the audience when we learn that traditional Iranian men seem to be ashamed and feel dishonor no matter what their female children do. Always "worrying" what the neighbors will "think" Fereshteh's father keeps her in a virtual prison of the home until he marries her off to Ahmad who, in turn, also keeps Fereshteh homebound until her sanity becomes jeopardized in the end.
This is a great film. And, Director Milani is to be praised in spite of the political and judicial liability hanging over her for making this film. Tahmineh Milani has given the world a frank and realistic look into the way women are treated in Iran.
This magnificent foreign film is an undeniable 10! It is available on VCR and DVD. Check it out, truly!
unfortunately it seems that in translating this film to English some problems have occurs. the revolution in this film is not the Islamic revolution which changed the government. its cultural revolution that happened years after Islamic revolution. the name of two woman doesn't mean fereshte and her friend it means fereshte before marriage &after marriage. her friend in the film wants to show that this situation is not all Iranian women destiny. this films trays to show how some traditions &some misjudgment from Islam can make a mess.a Westerner who watch this film should be very smart to understand it.other wise he will find it a boring ,simple film.
This is a very non-Iranianesque movie in the sense that it isn't totally
depressing as its older siblings, but most Iranian movies do merge on one
point - the suffering of people, and in this case: women.
So you might say that this film has a more positive outlook on life than the general movie from Iran. If you regard movies as psycho-cultural mirrors of their places of origin, then it becomes evident that the spark of positivism is due to the more liberated Iran, and consequently the anguish portrayed in this film is also a reflection of the Iranian women's agony.
But in this black night of tragedy, brilliant stars of hope appear and glimmer for a while, but not long though. The movie even begins with an ominous phone call by a desperate woman. It then unfolds, flashbacks sandwiched between the main story. This way the movie never lets go of the suspense, while on the same time, it unravels new things for the viewer.
It seems quite strange for me that such a movie could pass the beard-stroking-sharia-in-hand ayatollahs considering the fact that it is very feministic and portrays women as careerists and independent. Maybe this is another sign of the more open Iran mentioned above. There are however, implications from the men in the movie that the women should stay home and do the traditional chores around the house (i.e. giving birth and cooking food).
All of the actors in this movie are very good, particularly Niki Karimi (who should get an Oscar, or at least a Palme D'or, for her breathtaking perfomance on the stairs, reflecting her life) and, my favourite, Mohammed Reza Foroutan (who plays the somewhat shy and misunderstood maniac very well, compare this roll with the one in Zire Pooste Shahr and you'll see what a great actor he is).
Two women( dou zan) is one of the best movies I have ever seen. It tells the story of society who couldn't tell its story for such a long time. Whether it could not see it or it could not say it. I adore her because what she did is a breakthrough. Though you may show sympathy for Fereshteh, but the issue is deeper than that. It tells about the rights which are being ignored and the humen who are being humulated just because of wrong social customs. Tahmineh milani showed she is truly an intellectual in broad sense of the word.Good for her that can see and say the vital problems in such away that touches almost everyone immediately. Full credit to her.
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
This is an Iranian soap opera. The male evil characters are
caricatures. One is psychopathic stalker and the other man of the
'arranged marriage' is a tormentor. The movie is also very repetitive,
with arguments being repeated verbatim between the wife and her
domineering husband at regular intervals. The music, at times, is
laughable with the same chords heard over and over whenever the evil
stalker appears. It's like the director had watched too many spaghetti
The only thing of general interest is that the context is Iranian. There are abundant Western movies on harassment, male domination and abuse that are far better than this 'North Country' comes to mind.

"You should know something. I didn't really break up with my boyfriend." BOOM!
And with that line, we're introduced to what's sure to be another awesome season of Nikita. The season 2 premiere airs later this week (with the show moving to Friday nights at 8:00 p.m.). This season, it's a whole new ball game.
Nikita and Michael are on the run from Division, Oversight and probably 10,000 other people when season 2 of Nikita premieres. They're determined to take down their former employers and will be using the black boxes to do so. But, they're short on funds, so it looks like they'll be doing some good old-fashioned thievery.
Meanwhile, Amanda is now occupying the boss' chair over at Division, but Oversight isn't ready to give her carte blanche. They have assigned one of their own agents - Sean (played by guest star Dillon Casey) - to watch over her. Her first mission? To retrieve the black box from Nikita and Michael. Amanda is happy to take on the assignment, but wants help, so she asks Alex to track down her former mentor and retrieve the box. Fortunately, Alex is in a far better position than she was last year and makes Amanda promise to help her track down the man who killed her father before agreeing to help.
Below is a sneak peek and episode preview for the new season of Nikita. You can view photos from the season premiere here, photos from the September 30 episode here (featuring the return of Devon Sawa as Owen) and a trailer for the new season here.
Don't miss the season premiere of Nikita on Friday, September 23 at 8:00 p.m. ET on The CW.

Natimuk hosts radio Triple J's One Night Stand
Broadcast: 30/07/2004
Reporter: Kate Arnott
KATE ARNOTT, REPORTER: Nestled halfway between Melbourne and Adelaide is the tiny Wimmera town of Natimuk home to 500 people. It sits in the shadows of Mount Arapiles, a world-renowned rock climbing destination. It's a peaceful place but as the locals put it they've always known the value of rock. So how did it come about that 8,000 people flocked to Natimuk on a Wednesday night in the middle of winter to rock the rock? The town was one of 49 across Australia to enter Triple J's One Night Stand competition. For the judges, Natimuk was a standout with everything organised right down to the portaloos. The hard work paid off and the town suddenly found itself with just 20 days to put on the show of its life. Shiree Pilkington took on the daunting task of chief organiser and when the big day arrived it was all systems go.
SHIREE PILKINGTON, ORGANISER: How are you? Good? Have you got your dancing shoes on for tonight?
MAN: Oh no, I think I'm getting a bit beyond that.
SHIREE PILKINGTON: Got your ear plugs instead?
MAN: Well I don't need them - I'm half deaf for a start. (Laughs).
KATE ARNOTT: After living in Natimuk for nearly six years, Shiree has been using the arts to help boost community morale.
SHIREE PILKINGTON: It's been incredibly difficult for a lot of people. Very hard times having maybe a six-year drought, now. But this is something that I felt would really lift the community. So having really young children involved right through to very old people in the community, it's excitement all round.
SECURITY PERSON 1: OK, gates open.
SECURITY PERSON 2: If you don't have any bags or anything I'll just get you to see security just here. Just shake out your jackets, or if you've got anything, head straight through.
KATE ARNOTT: With people arriving from as far away as Brisbane for the gig there was no way any of the locals were going to miss out. So you've come down here to see what it's all about?
ALAN LOCKWOOD, RESIDENT: Oh, we live in Natimuk. Oh yeah, we've wandered over here.
WIN LOCKWOOD, RESIDENT: We were born here, we couldn't miss what's going on.
KATE ARNOTT: Do you think you'll like the music?
ALAN LOCKWOOD: Oh well...
WIN LOCKWOOD: No. I've turned my hearing aids off already.
ALAN LOCKWOOD: We'll go home and get some ear muffs.
SECURITY PERSON 3: Make sure you search them. (Laughs)
KATE ARNOTT: Members of the Natimuk Rams football team were first through the gates.
WILLIE HANSEN, COACH, NATIMUK RAMS: Learn to run a bit, mate, try harder.
KATE ARNOTT: The team hasn't won a match in two seasons but things are looking up. It's just won $20,000 to do up the clubrooms and with a rock concert for a bonding session the players couldn't ask for much more.
WILLIE HANSEN: This is just fantastic. All the youth in the Wimmera coming here. It's just a big buzz for the whole town and Natimuk in general. It's just fantastic.
KATE ARNOTT: Do you think it will lead the Rams to a win?
WILLIE HANSEN: We certainly hope so, You never know, there could be some recruits in the crowd tonight. Sign 'em up. We've got three games to go, you know, we could get a couple of wins.
KATE ARNOTT: It may be in the middle of nowhere but Natimuk has put itself on the map especially in the music world. And the stars of the show were thrilled at the prospect of playing in the "town with the strange name".
MEMBER OF GRINSPOON, BAND: I'd never honestly heard of Natimuk and I kept on calling it Matamuk and Tabinuk and everything until finally I didn't and I learnt. (Laughs)
KATE ARNOTT: What do you think of the name Natimuk?
MEMBER OF ESKIMO JOE, BAND: It makes you want to kind of say it aggressively. It sounds like a foreign swear word - Natimuk! Or in the car when your mobile is about to ring - Natimuk Natimuk Natimuk. (Laughs)
HAU, KOOLISM: It was a beautiful drive here. Not too cold - we're from Canberra so you know you can't get much colder than that. It's a nice place.
DANIEL, KOOLISM: Nice people, it's our country, so yeah. You always get a nice warm reception, especially at the pub...
HAU: ..down at Trevor's Pub.
DANIEL: That's right - Trevor's Pub, you've got to check that out.
WOMAN 1: I've never seen Natimuk so full. It's awesome.
WOMAN 2: We are having an awesome time, it's really cool.
WOMAN 3: I've never seen so many people in the small town of Natimuk and it's just great.
GRINSPOON: Hello Natimuk, you are now live on Triple J.
KATE ARNOTT: When The Dissociatives took to the stage it was only three degrees - not that anyone noticed, especially fans of lead singer Daniel Johns.
DANIEL JOHNS, THE DISSOCIATIVES: Thanks for having us, you lovely people.

It's Memorial Day weekend in the United States, and President Bush said in his Saturday radio address that the bravery of U.S. soldiers "has secured a way of life for our entire country. These heroes and their families should be in our thoughts and prayers on a daily basis, and they should receive our loving thanks at every possible opportunity."
With such a somber sentiment I couldn't agree more, but from him it rings hollow as a burnt tree in Baghdad.
Bill Moyers said on Friday: "We honor our war dead this Memorial Day weekend. The greatest respect we could pay them would be to pledge no more wars for erroneous and misleading reasons; no more killing and wounding except for the defense of our country and our freedoms."
He explored a Rand Corporation study indicating that about 300,000 veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan suffer from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder — PTSD — or major depression, brought on by combat.
"The rate of attempted or successful soldier suicides is so scary the head of the VA's mental health division wondered in a February e-mail how it should be spun. 'Shhhh,' he wrote. 'Our suicide prevention coordinators are identifying about 1,000 suicide attempts per month among the veterans we see in our medical facilities. Is this something we should carefully address ourselves in some sort of release before someone stumbles on it?'"
Mr. Moyers then played a clip from Rep. Bob Filner (D-CA): "The hearing today is entitled 'The Truth About Veteran Suicides.' … If we do not admit, if we do not assume, if we do not know what the problem is, then the problem will continue and people die. If that's not criminal negligence I don't know what is."
Mr. Moyers concluded: "Once upon a time kids asked their fathers, 'What did you do in the war, Daddy?' It's a question the next generation could ask all of us, who stood by as our government invaded Iraq to start a war whose purpose and rationale keep shifting and whose end is nowhere in sight, and who look now with nonchalance upon the unseen scars of those who are fighting it."

Happy Thursday, everyone! I'm back in town after a short, yet meaningful getaway with Steven. We've stayed close to home for various reasons this summer, but we've also been trying to break our routines when we can and find more time to connect. The past few days helped us to do that, and I'm feeling grateful for them today, as we settle back into the swing of things.
It can be tough to re-adjust after travel, no matter how brief, and I've always found that having some food in the freezer helps to make the return home easier. I love knowing that there's something nourishing waiting for me, and it's a relief not to have to fret about restocking groceries right away. At the moment, I'm savoring defrosted leftovers of these flavorful, slow-cooker spiced lentils and cauliflower, a recipe from Ali Mafucci

by Rose
(Brattleboro, VT)
I live in Vermont, but was driving my mother's car with NH plates. I'm on her insurance, so no problem there. However, a flat bed semi veered into my lane, crashed into my car, and left the scene. Witnesses followed and got his (New Jersey) plates, but the two witnesses came up with two different plate numbers.
Other than a bruise from my steering wheel, I wasn't injured, but my car is in terrible shape.
As it turns out, I don't have collision, so while I'm not at fault, I have to wait for the police report to get the other driver's info so I can call his insurance company and try to get them to pay for the damage done... apparently?
My father says I have essentially no chance of getting them to cover costs. My mother's friend, a former insurance agent, says since they left the scene, they'll probably have to pay. Has anyone had any success in a situation like this? I don't quite know how this works. Any information you can give would be helpful. Thank you.
Rose (Brattleboro, VT):
You don't have to wait for the police report. Contact the Vermont police agency investigating the hit and run. The police agency has the ability to access New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission and track down the owner of the truck.
Even with partial plate numbers and a general description of the truck, the police have the ability to track it down. When you speak with the police agency, ask how soon the police report will be available. Explain to them the urgency of your situation.
The State of Vermont is a traditional fault state, also referred to as a "3rd party liability state." In a 3rd party liability state, as the victim of a car accident, you have the right to do one or more of the following:
- File a claim with the at-fault truck driver's insurance company
- File a claim with your mother's insurance company
- Sue the truck driver
Once the police have succeeded in locating the driver, you can contact the truck driver's employer and request the employer pay for your property damage or refer you to his or her insurance company
Finally, in the event the driver is located he may be arrested for leaving the scene of an accident pursuant to Vermont law, Title 23 Chapter 013 Section 1128
If so, you will be able to contact the prosecutor handling the case. Tell the prosecutor you sustained property damage as a result of the accident caused by the defendant.
If the prosecutor is offering a probated sentence, the judge can order as condition of his probation the defendant be ordered to reimburse you for your property damage. Then, if then the driver fails to pay, he may be arrested and jailed for the remainder of his sentence.
The above is general information. Laws change frequently, and across jurisdictions. You should get a personalized case evaluation from an attorney licensed in your state. Find a local attorney to give you a free case review here, or call (888) 647-2490.
Best of luck,
Judge Calisi

I have been told that I am high risk for Downs Syndrome 1:298 (the cut off being 1:300), so I literally just missed the OK range.
I'm 33 and this my second pregnancy. My DS had similar results but with him I just made the low risk range. With both babies my scan measurements were low risk but it has been my blood result that has let me down.
So now I have been advised to have the amnio test, which has a 1:200 risk of miscarriage - what do I do!!!
I would love to hear from anyone who has had the amnio test as I am in complete two minds on what to do; have the test or leave it and keep my fingers crossed.

It's got to be the tiniest hard-drive camcorder in the world, and it really does fit in a large pocket. It's light and has a comfy feel in the hand, and we really like the so-called "Laser Touch Operation user interface," better than a touchscreen by far. You're not going to get any grime on that screen with this slim guideway for your finger, situated just to the left of the 2.7-inch widescreen. All the adjustments are available with a quick slide up or down, and your screen stays clean. This highest-end GZ-MG730 camcorder comes with a docking station, from which it's easily removed. Advertisement Advertisement We like its sharp f/1.8 Konica Minolta lens, which snapped into focus quickly, and takes some great-looking stills, too, with its separate engines for stills and video. Definitely a coolCam, the $800 pocket shooter rolls out for sale in February.Reply8 repliesLeave a reply

IPIXA technology developed by Interactive Pictures Corporation (formerly known as OmniView) that allows users to create and view 360-degree panoramic photographs. Originally called PhotoBubble, IPIX images are created by stitching together two hemispherical shots taken through a fish-eye lens. The result is a spherical panoramic image.
To view an IPIX, you need a stand-alone IPIX viewer or a plug-in that works within another application, such as a Web browser. The viewer allows you to move within the IPIX environment to view different parts of the image.
Interactive Pictures Corporation, which is also called IPIX, offers a variety of viewers and plug-ins for free, and sells tools to create and manipulate IPIX images. A competing format for panoramic images is QuickTime Virtual Reality (QTVR), developed by Apple Computer.

Separating Power by Gerhard Casper
Book DescriptionThe separation of powers along functional lines - legislative, executive, and judicial - has been a core concept of American constitutionalism since the Revolution. However, assertions of the importance of keeping the powers separate do not capture the complexity of the task when it is seen as separating power flowing from a single source - the people. Popular sovereignty did not underlie early versions of the separation of powers doctrine. This book aims to illustrate some of the challenges faced by US presidents, and others in Congress, over the history of the state.

This isn't just about colors
Context of bioproduction
A revolution is growing regarding the way we produce, use and recycle products. This new era will be ruled by microorganisms, microscopic living beings that can be cultivated to produce a wide variety of renewable materials at industrial scale. Mostly used for ages in the food industry through fermentation (beer, bread, cheese, chocolate, vinegar..) and more recently in health care where engineered microorganisms produce pharmaceutical molecules (insuline, …), these champions now show up again in the production of smart and renewable materials.
Biofabrication of colors, our mission
We choosed this new way of production to work on something we cannot live without : COLORS!
PILI is focused on the biofabrication of colors produced by microorganisms in order to replace the petrochemical versions (non-renewable, toxic to work with..) and the vegetal ones (non scalable, expensive, dependant on weather..). A lot of industrial sectors have been waiting for such a product and now cooperate with us, eager to use our living colors, from textile to cosmetic factories, to develop the future of colors in which we can already predict that affordable and sustainable products will lead the way.
History of the project
Everything started in the framework of La Paillasse in 2012 where we made our first proof of concept and created workshops for adults and kids to introduce them with those new modes of production. Workshops took place at the Science Gallery (Dublin), Gaîté Lyrique (Paris), Victorian & Albert Museum (London), Opéra Bastille (Paris), La Paillasse (Paris), Genspace (New York). The enthousiasm people showed gave rise to an ambitious project : to bring these biofabricated colors to the many, and to include them in our everyday life's products. In 2015, PILI moved in a big cluster for biotechnologies : TWB (Toulouse White Biotechnologies) where the core of the project is done in biology. PILI still has an office at La Paillasse where the research in design and prototyping takes place.
We work with
The realm of bacteria brings us many
treasures from medicines to biomaterials
(image : spore under microscope)
from textiles to cosmetics
We collaborate with many industrial sectors to developp the best reciepe for these colors to replace the ancient ones
toward an infinte living palette
We work on the creation of a large palette
of living colors

Top Definition
A term coined by George Will to describe a media driven knee-jerk reaction to a public policy debate designed to increase public interest, and hence, ratings (and government funding for the various entities established to confront the "problem") by framing an issue in eschatological (i.e., biblical, end-of-the-world) language. Examples would include the current effort to raise the debt ceiling as well as global cooling , DDT, the population explosion (1970's), acid rain, nuclear winter, radon and dioxin (1980's), Y2K and global warming (1990's). Eventually, even the dimmer bulbs on the marquee sense that they are being taken for a ride.
Telling us that failing to raise the debt ceiling another couple of trillion dollars (that our grandchildren will have to pay back) will be the end of the world as we know it is guaranteed to produce apocalypse fatigue.

This dress was really beautiful. We order it in silver. Well tailored, fine material, arrived on time and everybody at the wedding asked where we got it from. Thank you very very much......
This dress is a perfect fit to the mm. Absolutely no adjustments required. Absolutely stunning dress. My wife absolutely adores it. From the dresses I have purchsed for my wife this so far is her favorite. She absolutely adores the colour she chose too which was grey/dark white. Will definately keep shopping for dresses for my wife from your company.
I ordered it in black in size 6. It fits perfectly and is a gorgeous dress! I absolutely cannot wait to wear it! highly recommended it to every one else,get it
I am 5'1" and 103 lbs. This is truly one of my favorite dresses of all times...comfortable, flattering and beautiful yet very simple.the charmeuse is a fantastic fabric
I love this dress. Super cute and very soft, comfortable fabric. You should note that it has a slightly clingy fit though but nice in all view.
I bought this dress in purple for my two bridesmaids and I was delighted with how lovely they were. They got so many compliments on the day. They suited both of my bridesmaids very well considering one is as dark as the other is fair, they both looked stunning. The style is very flattering and the quality of the material is fantastic. I am also very happy with the service you provided, no fuss, quick delivery, true to the picture and the description was very accurate. I changed the diamante pin for a purple one which was easy to do. I felt that the pin was not of the same quality as the dress. I also would recommend that you measure on the generous side as I feel that because the lining was so thick, it brought the measurements in a little and both dresses had to have the shoulders altered as they were both a bit long from shoulder to bust. Apart from that they were great.

Lost Child-A Poem
Baby girl, baby girl why do you dress like that?
No man will ever give you respect
Go back to school and get good grades
Show the world that you can become someone great someday
Don't let negativity stand in your way,
You're better than that
Give yourself a pat on the back
You are beautiful, you are strong.
I see the fighter in you
Lost child find your way home

Restructuring Post-Communist Russia by Yitzhak M. Brudny
Book DescriptionSince the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991, the question of 'whither Russia?' has been the source of ceaseless speculation both at home and abroad. In search of answers, twelve highly qualified scholars examine the complex interplay between continuity and change that has marked developments in Russia under the leadership first of Boris Yeltsin and now of Vladimir Putin. Analsying the recent past, they also peer into the country's future. In his introduction to the volume Peter Rutland asks whether we are witnessing the gradual entrenchment of parliamentary democracy, the slow return to autocracy or mere political stagnation. Restructuring Post-Communist Russia poses the fundamental questions while providing the information and analysis needed to give the (at least, preliminary) answers.
