Le Laurier, La Galaubie, Naussac, Aveyron, Midi-Pyrenees, France - Peaceful, rural location. Midi Pyrenees region of south west France.
If you are looking for a special rural escape in la France profonde Le Laurier is the perfect location. Set in the heart of the Diege valley in south west France surrounded by farms, rivers and woodland, the charming 19th century barn offers extremely comfortable accommodation for two people. On the first floor a large sitting room with deep comfortable sofas, an extensive library of books, DVDs and music CDs. The pretty mezzanine bedroom has a king size bed, with 100% cotton bedding and plenty of hanging space and shelving. On the ground floor there is a bright fully equipped kitchen and a shower room and toilet. The mature garden is full of secluded places to sit and read, or doze. Guests are invited to help themselves to produce from the organic potager and tiny orchard. After a day of discovery - there are many medieval towns and villages, vineyards, markets and a stunning river-laced valley to explore - stretch out on the wisteria-draped terrace and enjoy a pre-dinner drink.
There are two excellent restaurants within a 10 minute drive.
NB Owners and their dog, Lottie, live on site.

A special place
We visited the market in the nearby small town of Villeneuve, we went to Villefranche-de-Rouergue which we pretty much had to ourselves (it was Monday and everything was closed). We also visited the beautiful village of Belcastel and went to Rodez in the afternoon. The books in the gite came into their own when it rained all day on Wednesday, though it didn't stop us going for a local walk where the only person we met was a lady looking for her lost cat. We also had lunch in Figeac and visited the Champollion Museum and explored the old town.
A week is not long enough to explore everything this area has to offer, we were extremely sad to leave, and we would definitely like to stay here again.
Thank you Kathryn and John for a wonderful week, your warmth and friendliness make this a special place.

A special place
We stayed in this lovely gite from 10-17 September 2016. The property is in a small hamlet situated in stunning countryside. The beautifully decorated and stylish accommodation is in a double-storied stone barn situated in a lovely garden and had everything we needed; it was so lovely you could have happily moved in and lived there for ever! The extremely well-stocked kitchen is on the ground floor, as is the bathroom. On the upper floor is a huge living room full of comfy sofas and a wall of books and dvds, and the bedroom is on a mezzanine floor which looks out over the roofs of the property and the surrounding countryside. There's a pergola in the garden where you can eat your meals and have drinks in the shade, or you can use the chairs and swing hammock if you like to sit in the sun. It was a real pleasure for us to meet Kathryn and John who could not have been more helpful and friendly. We arrived at the end of a very long, hot day feeling extremely tired and frustrated after a long journey, to be greeted with tea and hot showers and a lovely light meal of homemade quiche and salad.

A prefect rural paradise
The warmth of John and Kathryn's welcome, especially the welcome supper; the discrete but valuable advice about places (especially gardens) to visit; the excellent clean facilities all made this a perfect place to holiday. The icing on the cake was the splendid walking from the door and further afield, the local markets and the villages. At the end of the day John and Kathryn's garden is the an idyllic place to relax.If you enjoy rural life look no further - this is the place to stay! A fortnight is not long enough and we very much hope to return.
A perfect find
The Barn at Le Laurier is very special. We spent a week there in September and found everything to be as lovely as the previous reviews suggest, or even more so.
The Barn is in the grounds of the owners' house. It has a feeling of space and light, is well laid out, furnished with care and consideration in a style that wouldn't be out of place on the pages of Country Living magazine and everything that you could possibly need for your stay has been thoughtfully provided together with many extras that you hadn't thought of. There are so many little touches and details that you never find in holiday accommodation that make it the perfect home. The result is comfortable and welcoming and we felt relaxed and as though we belonged there from the moment Kathryn showed us around.
The outside space is equally appealing and just as inviting with plenty of spots to sit or laze in the sun or shade. The large covered terrace also kept us dry during a shower, if we preferred to sit and look at the lovely garden with cup or glass in hand, rather than retreat into the barn with its extensive library, DVD collection, and other attractions. . The weather for our week in September wasn't perfect and we had more rain than was usual for that time but it didn't spoil our holiday because Le Laurier is such a lovely place to be.
Kathryn and John couldn't be kinder, friendlier or more considerate and Lottie is a delight. They are so generous with their garden, their time and their ideas and suggestions for places to visit but, unless we wanted to ask them something, they left us alone to pretend that we lived there! They are the perfect hosts providing superb accommodation set in a beautiful country garden in the peaceful French countryside and allowing their guests to treat it as their own home for the duration of their holiday
In summary, we had a wonderful holiday and hope to return again next year to see Le Laurier in a different season.
If you want a peaceful and relaxing holiday in a delightful gÎte, set in beautiful countryside then we can't recommend Le Laurier enough.

A wonderful holiday home
We had the most wonderful stay at Le Laurier. The barn is beautiful, tastefully decorated and comfortably furnished. Everything you could possibly need is provided and if there was something else you needed, you only had to ask the lovely owners Kathryn and John. We felt very much at home from the moment we arrived. There were all kinds of wonderful home cooked goodies left for us so that we didn't have to think about shopping on the day we arrived. We quickly became friends with John and Kathryn over drinks on the beautiful terrace on our first evening and that set the tone for the whole holiday. They are delightful hosts, unobtrusive but always there to offer advice and suggestions for visits and will happily book restaurants for you.
The property is in a very rural, secluded position but only a short drive away from a delightful medieval town with all the amenities you would need, including shops and restaurants. There is even a newly opened gallery by a famous French photographer which is certainly worth a look. A little further away are the towns of Figeac and Villefranche de Rouergue both of which are very interesting and have colourful markets. There are some incredibly beautiful medieval villages to explore within easy reach and in contrast we went to see the very modern Norman Foster viaduct at Millau, an incredible structure!
We wouldn't hesitate to recommend a holiday at Le Laurier, a beautiful home from home, made extra special by the thoughtfulness and generosity of the lovely owners Kathryn and John and not forgetting the little scamp, Lottie, their terrier who we wanted to kidnap and bring home with us!
Honeymoon in a tranquil paradise
The barn was everything we had hoped for our honeymoon. A beautiful place to relax after the excitement of the last few days and the most delightful hosts. The barn was spotless and tastefully decorated with a huge collection of books, CDs, and DVDs. There was a hugely welcome selection of goodies in the fridge on our arrival and our hosts even treated us to canapes and drinks on the terrace on our first night. Nothing was too much trouble for them and we were allowed to help ourselves from the herbs, fruit, and salad in the garden. The garden is a gorgeous place to while away some hours and there were plenty of pretty fortified villages, castles, french markets, and gorges to keep us occupied when we wanted to venture away from the house. Thank you Kathryn and John for a lovely stay.
The best.....
We were introduced to this part of south west France about 5 years ago and try to make it to La Galaubie as often as possible. If you are looking for a great place to stay in one of Europe's most un-spoilt countryside settings, then this is it. Thousands of acres of green countryside make this the perfect place to recharge and relax and it's a paradise for the more active with endless bike and running trails. The only sounds that you will hear in this rural paradise are those of the local wildlife and farm animals.
The barn is completely renovated and tastefully decorated with every amenity. There is a double reception room with two large sofas and a large loft with a king size bed on the 1st floor mezzanine. Alongside an impressive English language library there is a TV with over 700 English and European dvds. The kitchen has a large dining table and is well appointed. The property sits in a gorgeous garden and has a pergola where you can bbq and eat outside at a table that sits about 8.
We became instant friends with the owners Kathryn and John and it's their efforts that make us come back year after year. She is a great cook and you can typically strike a deal where she cooks for you. This proposition is serious value if you are a true foodie looking to explore south west French cuisine. We are from London (and Canada) and her cooking is on par with serious London dining including Lucio on Fulham Road, La Poule au Pot and
other top bistro style restaurants like Aglio e Olio. As an over all
holiday experience La Galaubie gets 10/10.

The whole area is excellent for walking with well-marked paths for all levels within striking distance of the house.

Rep. Landry talks about the workings of U.S. Congress
U.S. Rep. Jeff Landry, (District 3, R-New Iberia) shared a glimpse of the workings of Congress with Franklin Rotarians Tuesday.
The congressman is in his second and final year of his first term and has announced he will be seeking re-election on the Nov. 6 primary ballot.
But due to the loss of a congressional seat following redistricting last year, he faces an unusual situation; there will be two incumbents vying for the same seat — Landry and District 7 Rep. Charles Boustany (R-Lafayette).
Landry opened with a rhetorical question on if the Democratically controlled Congress and White House administration had accomplished anything this past term to solve the nation's problems.
"What about before Nancy Pelosi took over the speakership and Harry Reid took over the majority leadership of the Senate and Barack Obama became president, Republicans enjoyed the same control as did the Democrats," he said. "Did they do anything to solve our problems?
"The problem is that we have given both of these parties opportunities to solve our problems and yet nothing has been accomplished," Landry said. "We have too many people playing politics in Washington rather than solving the problems. They fight more about the checkbook than over what's good for the American people."
He said he started his freshman year in Congress along with 87 other first-termers.
Beating out a long-term incumbent, Hunt Downer, in the 2010 election Landry said he promised to decline Congressional healthcare and retirement benefits.
"And we did that the first week in office," he said. "The healthcare was easy, the retirement took us a couple of weeks. I had to utilize my legal skills and help the House draft some very special paper work to decline my retirement because they fought like all hell to do it."
He added that more than 15 members of Congress have since declined some or all of their benefits and are working together on a bill that would eliminate Congressional pensions.
"The reason for that is this," he said. "For 15 years or more we've been knowing that Social Security needed to be fixed. It needs to be fixed today, and those people have not solved it. But they tell us that they're going to solve it … and yet time and time again we send them there and they don't do it."
He said he would bet that if members of Congress had to rely on Social Security like many Americans, the solution would be found.
Moving on to his support of the oil and gas energy, Landry said he has been "the loudest voice in putting the Gulf back to work." and pointed to his message he delivered during an Obama speech on jobs by holding up a sign that read, "Drilling = Jobs."
"We built an annual $14 trillion economy on the back of affordable energy," he said. He added that as a former owner of an oil and gas small business he felt it was his "duty to lead the fight for drilling."
He said he feels those efforts are paying off.
He also noted that he scored a 100 with the Family Resource Council on family values.
"I said I'd fight for a balanced budget amendment," he said.
When Congress was asked by the administration last year to raise the debt to a historical amount, Landry said he was against it.
He related a story about how he refused to be bullied into voting for the "imperfect bill" crafted by the speaker of the house.
The bill "did a lot of Washington magic, I call it voodoo politics. … and about 15 or 16 of us said 'We're not voting for it.'"
He said he was at first pressured by an unnamed senior congressman and then along with the group by the speaker of the house, John Boehner, who asked them all what favors they wanted in return for their votes.
"I was so proud because of all the people in that room, nobody asked for a project, or a dollar amount of a job or a committee assignment or a chairmanship," Landry said. Instead they asked for a balanced budget amendment to the constitution to put before the people.
"He didn't like that but in the end he gave it to us," he said. The debt ceiling bill was passed by the House but returned by the Senate with the balanced budget amendment stripped out.
"When it came back that way I said no," he said. "The problem is the process. When it is their problem, when they live it, they can solve it. When they don't live it, when they don't have to play by the rules, they don't solve it."
He added that he would continue to be committed to do whatever it takes to pass a balanced budget amendment.
He concluded by saying that the voters of Louisiana should demand of whom they elect to solve the nation's problems.

Conceptualizing the Regional Roles of Universities, Implications and Contradictions
The impact of universities on the economic wellbeing and innovative potential of regions has been the object of intense scholarly and policy interest in the last years. Despite this interest, a clear picture is missing in relation to the roles universities are seen to play, the benefits of university activities and the mechanisms through which they occur. This paper proposes a review and a critique of current views on the role of universities and their associated policy implications. To achieve this, the paper identifies five "models" for universities as they are reflected in the literature, each advocating different set of roles of universities, different spatial aspects of interactions, as well as different mechanisms for university engagement. National and regional innovation and research policies tend to explicitly or implicitly reflect one or a combination of several of these models, giving rise to potential contradictions or conflicts of policy rationales and objectives.

Ratings for Dr. Jian Ye
Outstanding pre-operative consultation and care. Post-operative follow-up excellent. Performed a sextuple by-pass on me.
I am immensely thankful with this genius Dr. Ye who operated me in 2006 for a quintuple bypass on my heart in St Paul Hospital. this was my second operation after a triple in 1987. I remember him telling me that I only had a slim chance of surviving this long 9 hours operation. But see ten years later and I am still very much alive and we just moved to a smaller home in our resort town; Penticton BC. Thank you Dr. Ye, for you knowledge and very good skills You are the best of all.... Alphons Witteman
I had an aortic bicuspid valve replace by Dr Ye and his team at St Pauls hospital a few weeks ago. Dr Ye is A1, and is supported by an incredible team. Dr Ye is highly recommended! Great energy and stamina as well. Everyone loves Dr. Ye!
Dr Jian Ye is God's gift! All the superlative adjectives really describe Dr Ye. May he remain forever strong and healthy with a steady hand to perform more and save those who are in need of his excellent work!
I am extremely happy to have Mr. Jian Ye as my surgery doctor for my mitral valve repair operation. His thorough knowledge, refined skills, proactive altitude and rich experiences have secured the success of my 5 hour mitral valve repair surgical procedure. The whole team of Heart Centre is also highly efficient and hard working. I am recovering very well post surgery. I very much appreciate what Dr. Ye and his team did for me. They literally gave the second life.
Excellent Dr he performed open heart surgery on me five bypass procedure awesome team excellent staff
Dr. Ye performed mitral valve repair and AF ablation on me recently. I wasn't able to do much pre-surgery consultation with Dr. Ye because I live so far away from his area, and in retrospect, it wasn't necessary. This guy knows what he's doing. Great bedside manner. Knowledgeable staff. Warm and caring personality. With professionals like Dr. Ye, maybe there is hope for our socialized medical system. Just sayin'. Thanks Dr. Ye!
He performed a Mitral Valve Surgery through MIS method on me. The level of professionalism and care that he bestowed on me was incalculable. I feel more energetic and active than I have in years. I am able to take long walks without shortness of breath or rapid heartbeats. My family and I are truly grateful for everyday of good health that he contributed to us on my behalf. Mohammad Keshmiri
I had a Mitral Valve surgery at St. Paul's hospital by Dr. Jian Ye, in May 2013. I cannot hesitate to recommend this great professor and surgeon to anybody. I had some post surgery complications that was handled by professor Ye and his staff, promptly and professionally. During his extremely busy schedule he took the time to come and see me, several times with a great smile that I can never forget. I'd like to applaud this great surgeon along with his supporting staff for their professionalism and care. St. Paul's Hospital, you rock! Dan H.U. Yousofi
He is the kindest surgeon you will meet. Despite being so well known for his excellent surgical skills, he still treats everyone with so much humility. He checked in on me everyday after my operation and was always ready to provide clear straightforward answers to my questions. You will be lucky to be referred to him as your surgeon!

If the bra fits, we're happy. So stick to what you do best Marks & Spencer, and stop trying to be hip and trendy
Of all the great institutions that symbolise the best of British, Marks & Spencer is perhaps the greatest. Granted, the Queen, the NHS and Radio 4 are worthy contenders, but none captures the mood of the British people quite like M&S.
Shoes that remind the wearer of Manolos but which come in a nice wide fitting; bras that have all the trimmings of an Agent Provocateur quarter-cup but which are reassuringly supportive; fashion that looks a lot like catwalk, but which you can happily sling in the washing machine. These are the things that vast swaths of middle Britain have

I appreciate for being late not less than 20 minutes at the pick up point. The design of the bus appeared like a running mortuary. I was recollecting the story of Hydrabad Volvo accident. I am just wondering what will happen to passengers in such contingency. I was feeling suffocated inside the cabin. When I opened the window one of the staff was shouting and asked me to shut the window as Air Condition was on. The worst part they unnecessarily stopped the bus in Solapur for 45 minutes. Keeping people on waiting. I missed one of the important meeting at office because of their irresponsible behavior. I dont recommend others to travel in this bus.

SAP SuccessFactors to Address Workplace Bias, Gender Diversity
Diversity and gender equality are proven business advantages. According to a McKinsey Global Institute report, advancing women's equity could add $12 trillion to the global GDP.
But addressing such issues has been about addressing human biases—an imprecise, flawed and slow process.
At its 25th annual Sapphire conference, SAP announced plans to speed that process and bring science to it. It announced plans to build new capabilities into its SuccessFactors HCM Suite, with the goal of improving workplace diversity.
Based on the SAP HANA platform, the software will use text mining and machine learning to help companies review job descriptions, performance reviews and other human resources-led "people processes."
SAP is applying tech innovation to the areas of business that have long been human run—and so have been biased, sexist and exclusionary, even if it's unintentional.
It will also use analytics and reports focused on diversity and inclusion to help organizations identify and track where biases exist in hiring and management processes, as well as offer guidance about how to address them.

Weddings in BurracombeBy: Lilian Harry (author)Hardback
1 - 2 weeks availability
DescriptionA heart-warming visit to the village of Burracombe where, whatever life might throw at you - strangers, surprises, love, change - you can always rely upon your neighbours and friends. Devon, 1954. The villagers of Burracombe pull together to help each other though the tough times but, this summer, it's time to celebrate love and new life. There are a few surprises to come, however, before anyone can walk up the aisle. It's been a long, hard winter. At Buracombe Barton, Hilary Napier is doing her best to keep the estate ticking along, all the while longing for a man she cannot have. She welcomes the young Patsy Shillabeer onto her staff with open arms, but little does she realise that Patsy, flourishing away from her parents' watchful eye, is more headstrong than she first appears, and there's trouble brewing. Alice Tozer sees her youngest daughter off on the adventure of a lifetime, but when her eldest son returns to the family farm she watches with dismay as her whole family is thrown into turmoil. And all is not well in the village school, where a strict new teacher appears to be making the lives of the little ones a misery. And almost everyone is missing their beloved teacher Stella, still in hospital after the accident that nearly killed her. As the first crocuses bring colour and the promise of change back to Burracombe, the villagers help each other through the hardships. For, while the course of true love never did run smooth, for anyone, in Burracombe, there are two weddings to plan and it won't be long before everyone in this very special village comes together in a joyful celebration of love, life and the things that matter most.

Globalisation and Fragmentation: Evidence from the Electronics Industry in Ireland
This paper examines fragmentation and globalisation in the context of the electronics industry in Ireland. Fragmentation refers to the breaking-up of vertically integrated production processes into various components. We find empirical evidence of fragmentation in a number of data sources. Data on inward processing trade indicate that production in the Irish electronics industry is globally fragmented, and that the scale of such fragmented production is growing. Furthermore, Ireland's share of fragmentation is rising faster than that in the EU generally, especially in the electronics industry. Other firm survey data show that the scale of local fragmentation has risen relative to global fragmentation as firms in different Irish intermediate goods producing sectors trade increasingly on the local Irish market. Looking more specifically at the computer manufacturing sector, we find evidence of fragmented production in this sector in that the ratio of bought-in materials to total sales has risen significantly over the past decade.

Project Description
I'm looking for a developer to write a mobile phone app (in both android and iOS) which overrides the silent volume profile
Currently, if my phone is on silent there is no signal sent to the jack plug
I would like the app to over ride this so that a "simple 3 short beep" signal is sent to the jack plug (the phone speaker should still be silent and it's ring tone should not be changed from it's usual ring tone)

Itanium Chips Get the
Spotlight"> Itanium also will be a big topic at the show. Intel officials will highlight the upcoming next-generation Itanium 2 chip, which it has dubbed "Montecito." Intel initially planned to release the chip late last year, but delayed it after quality issues arose.Now due in the middle of this year, the chip will offer such features as dual-processor cores and hardware-based virtualization. It will pack two times the performance of Madison, the current shipping Itanium 2 chip, but keep the same power envelope of 100 watts, Skaugen said. Intel at IDF will show off updated metrics and highlight what it says are business gains against such rivals as Sun Microsystems SPARC processors and IBMs Power chip platform. The Itanium Solutions Alliancewhich recently pledged to invest $10 billion in the Itanium platformwill be important in driving the messages of improved performance, energy efficiency and confidence in the platform. Though declining to discuss numbers, Skaugen said Intel has upped its investment in Itanium every year, and will continue to do so. The alliance, a consortium that includes manufacturers and software makers and is headed by the likes of Intel, HP, Microsoft and Oracle, will have a community area on the IDF show floor. It will include eight booths dedicated to showing off alliance member products and recruiting companies to join the group. Also at the show, Platform Solutions will demo its upcoming Itanium 2-based mainframe system, which will be running and Linux and IBMs mainframe operating system, z/OS, simultaneously on separate partitions. The Sunnyvale, Calif., company is looking to offer users the advantages of mainframe systems, but with the cost benefits of industry-standard technology. Christian Reilly, director of marketing for PSI, said the company already has sent out some early versions of the systems running on the Madison chip to customers, but will launch the mainframe for general availability when Montecito is released. Several systems makers have been forced to delay releases of new or upgraded Itanium servers, based on Montecitos later than expected arrival. However, some have rolled out machines with plans to upgrade them once Montecito arrives. HP, of Palo Alto, Calif., later this month will put its next-generation chip set for Montecito, codenamed "Arches", into its Superdome systems running on the Madison chip. Click here to read more about the intense rivalry between Intel and AMD. An HP spokesman said users will see better performanceby about 30 percentand manageability with the new chip set. SGI, of Mountain View, Calif., in November launched the Altix 4000 bladed form factor, which will be upgraded to Montecito. Numerous others will use the IDF to distribute news. The OpenIB Alliance, which had previously focused on InfiniBand, will announce that its expanding its scope to open architectures, Other groups including Certified Wireless USB, WiMedia alliance and SATA-IO will all be on hand to discuss new developments in their respective markets, e-mails received by eWEEK indicated. Check out eWEEK.coms for the latest news, views and analysis on servers, switches and networking protocols for the enterprise and small businesses.
Nevertheless, Kirk Skaugen, vice president and general manager of Intels Server Group, said Montecito will be a key step forward for the Itanium platform.

Sweety Pies by Patty Pinner, dispenses down-home wisdom with recipes like Flaky Pie Crust; Caramel Tin Roof Pie; and Miss Oleda Halliburton's Easy Pear Pie on a Baking Sheet.
Makes one 9-inch pie
Daddy grew up in a Tennessee farmhouse that sat on 88 acres of land. From what they tell me, Grandmother was a country cook, capable of winning ribbons. They say, she made the best cobblers and her homemade ice cream was divine. Daddy was used to eating well and he really loved ice cream.
Mama was the kind of woman Daddy needed. She practically lived at the grocery store; she was always there, looking for new ways to spruce up Daddy's suppers. When I was growing up, there was always a gallon of vanilla ice cream in our deep freezer. Seems to me, we had a serving of it every other night, under various sauces, scooped on top of a slice of pie, or stuffed inside of a fresh waffle cone, but we liked it best when Mama used it to crown a slice of her tin roof pie.
My mother started making this pie in the late 1960s/early 1970s. It was part of her repertoire of trendy entrées—sort of like the fondue phase she went through—that she'd bring out to impress her company. But I know she got the most enjoyment when she made this pie for Daddy on a weekday, because he liked it so much. You should have seen the glorious look on her face when he'd push away from the table and wink or blow a kiss, or make some quick, little gesture that he thought I didn't see, and say, "Supper sho was good."
Butter a 9-inch pie plate and set aside.
In a small saucepan, heat the corn syrup just until it starts to boil, then remove from the heat and stir in the peanut butter and the crushed cereal until the flakes are well coated. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the buttered pie plate. Put the plate in the freezer until the crust is firm, 10 to 15 minutes.
In a medium-size bowl, thoroughly blend together the ice cream, 1/2 cup of the caramel topping, and 1/2 cup of the peanuts. Spoon the mixture into the chilled crust. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup peanuts over the filling, pressing them into the surface. Drizzle the remaining 1/4 cup caramel topping over the pie.
Place in the freezer until firm, about 4 hours. Remove 10 minutes before you plan to serve it to let it soften a bit to make slicing easier.

So what would a pundit of the Sixties or Seventies have made of the recent SPNM / ICA Oneday extravaganza? Dave Smith's note to his Disco Soleil Brilliant might have struck a familiar chord, with its talk of 'favoured licks of dated popular styles fed along an art- muzak conveyor belt'. John White's gentle toying with cliches ancient and modern, in three of his 130-plus piano sonatas, might too - though it can take a while to 'get' White's deadpan riddles.
But many of the new works in the SPNM showcase managed to lean popwards without obvious irony. The surprise in John Thomas's Let's Get Moving was not the use of modern-jazzy syncopations or the new-agey washes of tape sound, but their fusion, or rather non-fusion with a kind of perky Hindemithian counterpoint. Highlights of the evening concert, given by the 'theatre orchestra' George W Welch, were a piece of pure jazz composition, Carla Bley's Murder (skilfully arranged by the group's director Ian Gardiner), and Gardiner's own 45RPM. Like Smith, Gardiner has also been licking around 'dated popular styles', but while Smith's piece makes its point by sheer insistence, Gardiner prefers to entice the ear with wit, cunning, subtle surprise and elegant craftsmanship; in other words, it's the composition that counts. If that sounds rather Brian Sewell-ish, then maybe the man has a point after all.
It was the earlier improvisation session that produced sounds more akin to the popular bogey-image of 'modern music'. John Butcher's two short saxophone improvisations were inventive enough to pass for written compositions. Whether one found the Hession-Wilkinson-Fell session transcendent in its 'visceral power' or aggressive, undifferentiated rant was more a matter of taste. But when they complained at the end of the allotted hour that they hadn't been allowed enough time to get going, and that they felt artistically impelled to continue, quite a few people left the room.
The interval video (by Jonathan Borofsky) at London New Music's One Day Tradition concert at the Lilian Baylis Theatre last Wednesday was an idea, though putting it in a noisy, crowded bar meant that very few of us got the benefit of it. Otherwise, the three pieces by Wolfgang von Schweinitz revealed a composer with a strong personal voice, but with perhaps too much fondness for cluster-dissonance chords, while Gerald Barry's music trod a narrow aesthetic tightrope between moronically insistent banality and cunning faux navete. ' ' for ensemble fell resoundingly into Category 1, but Triorchic Blues for solo violin was one of the most compelling examples of folk reappraised I've heard in a while - splendid performance by Charles Mutter.

Jolly Snowmen, holly wreaths, fat-breasted robins; the usual Christmas card imagery is all a bit too pleasant isn't it? Too disappointingly feelgood to make anyone choke on their eggnog in shock. However, those intent on causing offence should fear not, because there are plenty of crass, discriminatory, ageist and sexist cards on the shelves.
One such seasonal missive has just been removed from Tesco. It depicts a red-headed child sat on Santa's knee and the caption "Santa loves all kids. Even ginger ones." The supermarket agreed to stop stocking the card after a mother of three red-haired children complained, saying that, "it's discrimination pure and simple." She's got a point, one that the American comedian Reginald D Hunter has picked up on in the past when he quipped that, "Britain has racism, it's just not very good at it. Ginger-haired people, that ain't even a race and y'all lay into them." Why is mocking people with ginger hair deemed a social acceptable prejudice, not to mention redolent of seasonal goodwill?
However, it's by no means just the red-haired who might find that their Christmas, New Year, or indeed birthday message is an insensitive one. Crude cards for every occasion – ranging from the truly offensive to the pointlessly profane – are strangely popular. For years, the likes of Hallmark and WHSmith were dominated by such saccharine characters as Forever Friends – those doughy-faced bears with love-lorn, lobotomised expressions – and floral cards making excessive use of the word special.
Now, however, looking for a funny, sophisticated card amidst the lads mag-like offerings in many party shops is like trying to find a searching article on unequal gender pay in Nuts or Zoo. Here's a little browse through some of the charming designs for different occasions on offer in Hallmark. First up, an image of an underwear-clad women's torso and the words, "what do you call a babe who does anything you want?" The hilarious answer inside? "Inflatable."
But if young "lovelies" are insufficiently devoted to the pursuit of male satisfaction, then according to the lascivious greetings card universe, elderly women – you know, the ones "ladz" don't want to shag – are apparently all randy old goats. Take a typical design that shows two women in glasses and chintzy frocks with the caption, "Agnes and Sue weren't maths wizards, but it didn't take them long to figure out how many people they needed for a threesome."
Britain might have a tradition of saucy postcards, typified by Donald McGill's ample-bottomed women at the seaside, but they can surely only be appreciated now as historical artefacts. The perpetuation of simplistic, outdated stereotypes and aggressive so-called humour is particularly depressing at Christmas, while the dispiriting trend for cards where the humour seems to revolve around substituting festive greetings with swearing (there's a card on sale that simple says "Fuck off and die. Oh Sorry I mean Happy Christmas") just underlines the British inability to be sincere or emotionally honest.
The constant stream of irony, or in this case aggressive profanity, that informs modern culture can be exhaustingly cynical. Give me a saccharine picture of a sledging polar bear over a provocative card with less wit than a cheap cracker joke any day.
