UK Service Sector Growth in Eight-month Low in June
The UK service sector continued to grow during June, albeit at a slower rate as the additional holidays around the Jubilee and reports of a fragile underlying demand environment weighed on activity and new business wins.
Highlighting growing concerns about the UK macroeconomic outlook, business sentiment in the sector fell markedly to hit a six-month low.
After accounting for usual seasonal factors, the headline Business Activity Index recorded 51.3. That was down from 53.3 in May and the lowest reading since last October. Growth has now been sustained for 18 months, but has recently seen a deceleration with the average index level for Q2 well down on that recorded for the opening quarter of the year.
Weaker activity growth in June stemmed in the main from a similar slowdown for new business. Latest data showed that sales rose again in June, but at the weakest rate in the current 18-month period of expansion.
Richard Threlfall, KPMG's head of infrastructure, building and construction, said: "Today's disappointing construction figures come as no surprise. We have seen in recent months failures of some of the biggest construction players such as the 150 year old firm Killby & Gayford. More recently we have seen the equally well-respected construction firm Doyle go into administration.
"This is the start of a new phase in the downturn for the construction industry in the UK, driven by a waning pipeline, evaporating margins and lengthening payment periods.
"The pressure on the indutsry is now becoming acute. The government needs to act now to support UK's struggling construction industry."
Temporary factors played some part, with anecdotal evidence suggesting that the net effect of the Jubilee holidays was to reduce market activity. This was offset to some degree by reports of an increase in work ahead of the Olympics, but there was nonetheless a suggestion that business confidence was generally lower in June. The European sovereign debt crisis was reportedly a factor weighing on sentiment, creating an air of uncertainty that led to business plans being put on hold.
Worries over Europe and the uncertainty over the direction of the UK economy also had a bearing on UK service providers' future expectations. With a post Olympics lull in activity also anticipated, business sentiment dropped sharply in June and was the lowest since last December.
Efforts to grow sales volumes were supported in June by further discounting. UK service providers signalled a back-to-back fall in output charges as competitive pressures, client requests for tariff cuts and a lack of demand all depressed pricing power.
Margins remained under some pressure as operating costs continued to rise over the month. Increased energy, labour, supplier and travel prices
all served to drive up input prices in June, more than offsetting reports of lower fuel costs.
Finally, employment in the service sector was increased for a seventh successive month in June as companies responded to recent rises in
workloads. However, the rate of expansion was only modest as panellists continued to use the nonreplacement of leavers as a way of controlling
Chris Williamson, Chief Economist at survey compilers Markit, said: "The services economy saw one of its worst months since the recovery began three years ago, with the June survey showing signs of growth stalling. The data suggest that the sector grew by only around 0.2% in the second quarter, though the quarterly rate of growth will have slowed close to stagnation in June, boding ill for momentum going into the third
quarter. A steep drop in service providers' expectations about the year ahead also casts a gloomy shadow on prospects for the sector in the
"Looked at alongside the other PMI surveys, which showed an ongoing downturn in manufacturing and a sharp deterioration in the construction sector in June, the services PMI probably cements the case for further stimulus from the Bank of England, with the three surveys now collectively down firmly into territory that has triggered action from the Monetary Policy Committee in the past."
David Noble, Chief Executive Officer at the Chartered Institute of Purchasing & Supply: "The Jubilee weekend clearly led to a temporary
slowdown in activity across the services sector as whole. However, this one-off event does not disguise the fundamental uncertainties affecting the sector and the wider economy.
"The Eurozone continues to be the biggest drag on business confidence, along with a scarcity of big contracts, and the prospect of a post-Olympics slump in business. Meanwhile, margins continue to be under intense pressure, caught between increasingly competitive pricing and increasing costs. Businesses will need to innovate to counteract these challenges, particularly if they are to remain profitable in these difficult times."

Mission Style Hand-Hammered Copper Home Accents
Mission style design grew out of the early Spanish mission settlements in southern California, founded by Franciscan priests in the 18th and 19th centuries. As in the closely related Arts and Crafts movement, simplicity, quality and durability were hallmarks of Mission Style furniture and accessories. Stickley, Roycroft and others are well-known for their contributions to Mission Style.
The warmth, textures and colors of Mission Style had great appeal to the Arts and Crafts movement of the 20th century. Hand-hammered copper, with its beautifully textured surfaces and rich colors, makes an excellent complement to Mission decor.

London seeks lead role as China's currency goes global
Almost two years ago, a little-known Sheffield-based maker of garden spades and lawn rakes made financial history.
Neill Tools was the first UK company to make a cross-border payment in the Chinese currency, with the help of banking giant HSBC.
"The volume of yuan-denominated trade in the UK will inevitably increase," the HSBC banker in charge of the deal said at the time.
The transaction was an unlikely harbinger of a shift in the global financial system, and the prediction about the importance of the Chinese currency in trade proved prescient.
Today, UK banks hold 35 billion yuan ($5.5bn;£3.5bn) worth of deposits in the Chinese currency, also known as the renminbi.
Most comes from companies, like Neill Tools, that now pay their Chinese suppliers and business partners in the yuan rather than in dollars and pounds - something that was impossible less than three years ago.
"I receive phone calls on a daily basis from companies wanting to know about the process of using the renminbi," says Janet Ming, head of the Royal Bank of Scotland's London China desk.
Growing trade
How the City's banks and financial institutions capture this growing trade will be key to securing London's future as a global financial centre.
However, London's financial activity in the yuan is still relatively limited, especially when compared to Hong Kong, which has been the main winner in China's push to extend its currency's global reach.
This week UK banking executives, along with officials from the Treasury and the City of London, meet in Hong Kong to discuss what they can learn from their former colony.
According to an April report by the City Of London Corporation, London's banks already hold more than 109 billion yuan worth of deposits, with 35 billion yuan estimated to be held in customer accounts.
The remainder are made up of institutional and interbank deposits - held by one bank on behalf of another.
While this is much less than the 554 billion yuan held in Hong Kong bank accounts, the emergence of another pool of yuan outside Hong Kong is important, says Kelvin Lau, an economist at Standard Chartered.
"It not only illustrates London's inherent strength as an international financial centre and its geographical and time-zone advantages in serving Western customers; more importantly it reflects growing (yuan) demand on an international scale," he says.
London also accounts for a quarter of foreign exchange trading in the yuan and last month, HSBC became the first company to issue debt denominated in the Chinese currency in London.
"London's strength is its institutional investor base; it is anticipated that as corporate and institutional deposits grow, so too will the liquidity of the London market," the report said.
Clear rationale
London's rationale in seeking to develop its role as an offshore centre for trading in the yuan is easy to understand. It is keen to boost trade with China, and the City is angling for new avenues of business.
And unlike their counterparts in New York, UK government officials have been particularly active in promoting London's financial strengths to China.
"As the world's leading financial centre, London is uniquely well placed to assist China in its goal of further expanding the international use of the renminbi," UK Chancellor George Osborne said last month at the launch of a City initiative designed to strengthen London's position as a hub for renminbi business.
Beijing, meanwhile, wants the yuan to play a bigger role in the global financial system and reduce its reliance on the dollar. A push to make it internationalise its currency, which began in earnest in 2009, has taken on more urgency in recent months.
As such, "it makes sense to promote a new offshore centre, located in a different time zone to Hong Kong, which would appeal to businesses in Europe," says Dariusz Kowalczyk, senior economist at Credit Agricole.
Until the last decade, the renminbi was rarely seen beyond China's borders and Beijing still controls the flow of money in and out of the country.
London's bid to take its slice of international trade and investment in the yuan is constrained by two main factors.
Firstly, London lacks a natural customer base for many yuan financial products and services.
Retail investors or individual savers in the UK have less incentive to hold the yuan compared to their counterparts in Hong Kong, where the yuan is an accepted method of payment and mainland China a short bus or train ride away.
Appetite for yuan products is likely to be stronger among the London's army of institutional investors. However, waning expectations for appreciation in China's currency as its economy slows could diminish the market's appeal.
And many European companies are still nervous about making and receiving payments in the yuan despite suppliers offering discounts of up to 10% for those willing to take the risk.
"Some companies are concerned because they are not sure how to hedge the transaction or how to get the currency converted," says Ms Ming.
"But Chinese suppliers are increasingly favouring payment in renminbi."
The second obstacle is London's lack of direct access to market infrastructure like settlement and clearing - only Hong Kong and Macau have clearing banks outside of mainland China.
This reinforces Hong Kong's position as the most obvious place to settle transactions and make deals in the yuan.
London is hoping to bridge this gap through an extension of the operating hours of Hong Kong's real time renminbi settlement system, which is expected to take effect at the end of June.
"The London market is still in its early stages and I think it will take some time, especially for individuals, to be comfortable holding the yuan," says Ms Ming.
"But it's not a matter of whether they should consider it, it's a matter of when."

A lot of movies lately are coming out with character posters -- one for each major character in the film. But these posters for the movie 'Noah' took this a little too far.
It started with posters for the regular actors
But then it got a little weird
Are they just going through the entire alphabet?
Okay, this is just getting ridiculous
They're actually making posters for different breeds of the same animal.
Wow, seriously? I'm pretty sure this cross-breed wasn't around before the 1900's
Wait, Nick Nolte is in this movie? Well, did they have to use that picture of him? Well, I guess it is his most recognizable.

New Favorite- Alison Krauss and Union Station
For years. Alison Krauss and Union Station gathered critical praise and
Grammy awards, igniting a mainstream interest in their version of bluegrass.
Then, the members contributed nine tracks to the soundtrack for the Coen
Brothers' film "O Brother Where Art Thou?"
As the singing voice for George Clooney, Union Station's Dan Tyminski
obtained the highest profile. His rendition of Man of Constant Sorrow
became a hit and helped the album achieve multi-platinum sales. A couple of
hastily put together concerts featuring the artists on the soundtrack were
rousing celebrations not just of bluegrass' history but also of roots
current crop of artists.
Buoyed by that success, Krauss and Union Station latest release, "New
Favorite," is obviously met with avid interest. The album title offers a
playful take on a fan's acceptance of the group's newest recording. Based on
the photographs on the cover and accompanying insert, it's a reference to a
dining establishment that Krauss and Union Station could have come upon
their many days on the concert trail. There is even the idea that it refers
to the opinion of the band members towards these 13 songs or…
What I'm getting at is that there is a depth that can be found in the
title. The same goes for the music spread out over 45 minutes. There is a
constantly shifting give-and-take between the Krauss-led tunes versus the
ones sung by Tyminski. Her soft voice evokes thoughts of Shawn Colvin minus
some of the wariness and weariness. She sounds reflective, almost to the
point of shyness but the overall impression is someone who gallantly moves
forward no matter what the situation brings to her.
Krauss's songs have a breezy feel to them that are never spoiled by
becoming too polished. Still, they do have more in common with pop or New
Folk's adult contemporary affiliation than bluegrass. She receives solid
support from her band mates in the same manner that a good friend is present
as an emotional crutch. That thought becomes evident as one travels from the
opening track, Let Me Touch You For Awhile to the its final one, the
album's title track, which relays in hushed tones the loss of a lover to
someone else.
On the other hand, guitarist/vocalist Tyminski and the rest of Union
Station – Jerry Douglas on dobro, Barry Bales on acoustic bass and Ron Block
on guitar and banjo – generally perk up the proceedings with lively and more
traditional arrangements (i.e. the instrumental Choctaw Hayride,
which was
written by Douglas). Krauss doesn't just sit to the side during these
moments. She contributes fiddle and viola throughout the record.
Overall, Krauss and Union Station's contemporary approach of bluegrass
gives the music enough of a lush production that the triple-A radio format
crowd can embrace it. It's not the energetic, spontaneous sounds one can
among the genre's early practitioners. Instead, it moves with a grace of
And while many of those making country music today blur the lines between
pop and country in a manner that's packaged like a Sara Lee pastry, Krauss
Union Station sustain a wholesome charm about themselves and their music.
in the process they, indeed, do create a new favorite.

App Controversy
Every now and again an iPhone app is released that causes such controversy it is brought to our attention in the national media. Apple are normally very quick to react and either remove the app altogether or force the developer to amend it rapidly. Remember Pepsi's AMP Up Before You Score app?
Controversial iPhone apps can be removed for any number of reasons such as unacceptable content, copyright infringement or teaching certain material which is illegal in some territories such as weapon manuals.
Here's a list of seven recent apps which caused great controversy when iPhone users and the general public heard about them.
- slide 2 of 4
Content in Question.
1. The Sun Newspaper App - The Sun newspaper in the UK is a very popular tabloid, however, it often features scantily clad women and 'inappropriate' articles. Its center page often carries paparazzi snaps of nude or near nude celebrities and it was for this reason that Apple showed the developers the door.
2. Me So Holy - This app caused outrage as it gave users the ability to deface religious paintings and figures. Users simply selected a religion and then took a snap of themselves. The user's face would then appear instead of that of a religious figure. So for example, Christianity would have Jesus with the user's face as you can see in the screenshot. Definitely one of the most controversial iPhone apps ever.
3. Eucalyptus - This app gave access to numerous books from the Project Gutenburg libraries which was fantastic. However, despite having gotten through the Apple screening phase, the app was soon removed as it gave access to the Kama Sutra!
- slide 3 of 4
Think of the Children!
4. Bang Bang - This app bit the bullet when it was brought to the fore by anti-gun activists. It featured numerous firearms from assault rifles to glocks and allowed the user to operate them with a great deal of realism using the touchscreen. You had to reload, switch the safety off, cock and fire the 'weapon'.
5. iSnort - Perhaps understandably an app whereby the sole purpose is to mimic snorting lines of cocaine raised concerns amongst drug charities and parents. Apple, however late, removed the app.
6. Relapse - Intended to be released alongside Eminem's new album, the sole objective of the game is to play as the rap singer rampaging through the streets in the early hours of the morning using a variety of weapons. The app wasn't released at the album launch as intended and I don't think it ever will be given the controversy that surrounded it.
- slide 4 of 4
And Finally...
7. I Am Rich! - Banned for the sole purpose of being an affront to the word 'application'. Because, well, it did nothing. This app was perhaps a stroke of genius by a German developer. He designed a simple app which has a red gem floating in the middle of the screen and nothing more. He then uploaded it to the App Store and somehow got through the Apple screening phase. He then put a price tag of $999.99 on it for any interested parties. There were. Eight people bought the app making the sly developer eight thousand dollars. Not bad for what must have taken him less than half an hour.
I'm sure it wont be long before another controversial iPhone app is released to cause a stir amongst the fan boy community!
Developers who want to make sure their apps avoid the same fate as these apps should check out How to Avoid Getting your iPhone App Banned.

Apartments are large for the price. It is very easy to hear neighbors. I would not recommend these apartments. Look elsewhere.
Great location with super big apartments. Much better on the inside than what you see from the street. Big pool (not many kids so it's quiet) - great neighbors and very private courtyard. Minutes from sunset...

Slavery in Haiti
The Practice of 'Restavèk'
Restavèk is a traditional system in which Haitian children from impoverished homes are sent by parents to live with other families and work for them as domestic servants.
Ideally the child is enrolled in school by the host household and treated like one of the family. But often this does not happen.
For many children, the day is filled with chores. Even the youngest are expected to fetch heavy buckets of water, hand-wash clothes, carry loads to and from the marketplace, and work in the fields—often laboring for 14 hours a day for no pay.
Children in Haiti's restavèk system often suffer a kind of apartheid, reduced to a subjugated status in their household and in society—sleeping on the floor, dressed in rags, eating leftovers, and often beaten. Two-thirds are girls, and many are viewed by men in the family as convenient objects for sexual exploitation. Girls are often abruptly expelled from the household if they become pregnant.
Successive generations have grown to adolescence in this atmosphere of shame, neglect, and abuse. Estimates of the number of children living in restavèk range from 150,000 to 300,000.
Our Solutions in Haiti
Fighting Slavery at Its Source
Free the Slaves has initiated a holistic method for community development that is one of the first of its kind in Haiti.
The Model Communities approach is based on the premise that building community consensus against restavèk can prevent and reverse the flow of children into servitude.
The strategy has six core components…
- Community-based assessment, including social mapping and participatory wealth ranking, to identify children in servitude and those at risk
- Open space dialogue to facilitate large-scale community discussions and consensus building
- A participatory learning curriculum using illustrated story books that bring to life the trauma experienced by children in slavery
- Community-based child protection committees to take preventive action with their neighbors, support the return and reintegration of restavèk children, and lead advocacy for needed government services
- An accelerated education program to allow overage students to complete the standard six-year primary school curriculum in three years
- Livelihoods interventions that integrate food and household security components to match the community's will to protect children while keeping them at home
Free the Slaves has successfully piloted the Model Communities approach in several source communities where parents have been sending their children away into restavèk. We are now scaling-up the program by expanding the strategy to other locales.
Strengthening Law Enforcement
Haiti has enacted one of the world's newest anti-slavery laws. The legislation defines human trafficking to include restavèk child domestic servitude, and it toughens punishment for traffickers and families who exploit children.
Free the Slaves advocated for passage of the legislation. We are continuing our advocacy efforts by pressing for proper implementation steps in the formation of a special committee designated to implement the new law.
Improving Haiti Research
Free the Slaves is participating on a technical committee that has been guiding the research methodology, and is now commenting on the findings, of a major national survey on child domestic work in Haiti, being conducted by UNICEF. Free the Slaves will continue to advise UNICEF on recommendations for next steps based on the research results.
Read our Community-Based Model for Fighting Slavery for in-depth details of the Free the Slaves global strategy for freeing slaves and ending the conditions that allow slavery to persist. Or watch our animated video that takes you through the model, step by step.
Our Results in Haiti
The Model Communities pilot project delivered impressive results, demonstrating the effectiveness of the approach…
- Children Back Home. An estimated 27 percent of children initially identified as being in restavèk are now back home. Returned children reported overwhelmingly that they feel happier to be with their families. They feel freedom they didn't experience while in restavèk. And they are glad to be in school. The sending of children into restavèk decreased in participating communities.
- Child Protection Stronger. The child rights participatory learning method was very effective at shifting norms by improving attitudes and behavior related to children's rights. This included increased awareness of the risks of restavèk and diminished social acceptance of this harmful practice. Reported desirable behavior, such as better treatment of children, increased by 29 percentage points. This stimulated retrievals of restavèk children by parents.
- Family Health Improved. Reproductive health education was included in the project because family size and parental health can affect whether children are sent into restavèk. This intervention created a shift among participants toward attitudes favorable to family planning and prevention of sexually transmitted diseases.
- Schooling Strengthened. The accelerated education component helped prevent at-risk children from being sent away from home into restavèk and contributed to the reintegration of children who returned home.

Our Partners in Haiti
Beyond Borders & Free the Slaves have join forces in Haiti for Greater Impact. Read details here.
In Haiti, our current and previous partners have included:
- Fondasyon Limyè Lavi: The Light of Life Foundation works in partnership with other organizations to enable people from disadvantaged communities to cultivate a quality education and experience based on mutual respect and dignity, and that leads to autonomy.
- Beyond Borders: Beyond Borders helps people build movements to liberate themselves from oppression and isolation. In Haiti and the United States, Beyond Borders is bringing people together for just and lasting change.
- Abas Systeme Restavèk (Abolish the Restavèk System): As a network of more than 18 local Haitian organizations dedicated to helping children in restavèk, ASR raises awareness about the problem of child domestic servitude locally and internationally and works to strengthen the capacity of its members to improve their services to affected children. ASR advocates with the Haitian government to take action and enforce laws against child domestic servitude.

Nokia has released a short video teaser just a day before the start of its Nokia World event, suggesting augmented reality could be on the menu.
Though the clip is only 16 seconds long, there's enough information to suggest a tie-in between augmented reality, location services and social networks. During the video we see a woman walking down a high street before a list of information appears virtually as she walks past a shoe shop.
This information includes the name of the shop, address, a review by Style Magazine, how many of her friends have checked in at the store and how may friends have liked it.
Nokia's City Lens app already uses augmented reality to help Windows Phone 7 users find places nearby along with reviews and contact details. Could Nokia World see the app become more social, perhaps integrating the likes of Facebook and Foursquare with its Windows Phone 8 devices?
Pocket-lint will be in attendance at Nokia World to bring you all the latest when the event kicks off on 5 September.

WINCHESTER, Va. – The Shenandoah University women's lacrosse team earned its third consecutive home victory to start the 2013 season with a 15-0 non-league win over Hope (Mich.) College.
Playing on a snowy, wet Sprint Field at Shentel Stadium turf, the Hornets (4-1) scored seven goals in the first 9:30 of the contest against the Flying Dutch (0-3).
Hope, in its first season of varsity lacrosse after a long history of playing at the club level, had three shots on goal in the first half but were turned away each time by SU starting goalie Ashley Cross.
Cross turned it over to Bonnie Giovannetti to start the second and the freshman delivered, making save on the only shot on goal of the stanza to preserve the shutout.
Coach Lindsey Lutz had nine different women register at least one point in the victory led by freshman Miranda Rudacille and her four goals.
Senior Corrinne Kosmowski matched Rudcille's four points by posting two goals and two assists.
Kosmowski also helped the Hornets to an 11-6 advantage in draw controls by scooping up five.
Junior Samantha Sisson, who had two goals and one assist in limited action, added four draw controls.
Senior Sydney Anderson anchored the defense with six caused turnovers and six groundballs.
Sophomore Liz Bereit backed up Anderson with five caused turnovers and had a game-high seven groundballs.
Freshman Evie Gaffney and Olivia Sprau both scored their first career goals in the second half.
SU led the game 11-0 at halftime and scored its 10th goal at the 12:42 mark of the first.
Shenandoah returns to ODAC play with 4:00 game at Bridgewater on Thursday.
Note: The two teams joined hands prior to the game for a moment of silence in honor of Seton Hill coach Kristina Quigley, who was killed in a bus accident on Saturday while traveling to a contest at Millersville University… The teams and officials also wore red and gold ribbons in honor of Quigley and her Seton Hill program… The game was delayed by 30 minutes to allow the SU Physical Plant crew to complete the cleaning of the field following three inches of snow Monday morning...

At the end of the 19th century, Joseph Henry Ball – a student of Alfred Waterhouse, the architect of the Natural History Museum in London – built a remarkable house in the earldom of Surrey just south of London. The home, called Undershaw, was curious not due to the eclectic architecture, but because of the prominent resident, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The house was built in a mediocre Arts and Crafts inspired mish-mash style, which Hermann Muthesius probably had in mind while writing his standard reference from 1904, "Das englische Haus", and which has recently become popular again. In 2004, an English developer bought the dilapidated house with the intention of replacing it with two weekend houses for wealthy, yet likely oblivious, customers. So far, the government and the preservation offices have stated simply that the house itself is not architecturally notable, and that Sir Arthur did not have the stature of Jane Austen or Charles Dickens, therefore the home cannot be protected against demolition.
Sadly, this may be true, but another reality lies beneath the physical structure and appearance of Undershaw. Then again, perhaps the other reality exists only with a dose of imagination or a healthy knowledge of the house and its inhabitants.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle selected the site for its subtle and dry climate, an area then known as little Switzerland, in hopes that his wife, Louise, could recover from tuberculosis. In May 1895, he wrote to his mother saying that, had they requested a specially constructed landscape, it could not be more perfect than the acreage he had just bought. He soon commissioned Mr. Ball, an old friend and architect whom he considered to have meticulous taste and a critical mind, for construction on the site. The house was partially designed by Sir Arthur himself, who created a fairy tale house with expansive windows to light the spaces and to circulate fresh air to optimize treatment of his wife's illness. This, and the red brick construction, resulted in an intriguing appearance, something between a sanatorium and private home, yet remarkably snug and cozy. In the large, south facing windows, specially manufactured stained glass depicting the Doyle Family's coat of arms personalized the residence.
Undershaw's main entrance opened into a large double height entry hall with a brick fireplace and led to the dining room. With seating for thirty people, this was clearly intended as a place for socializing with friends and acquaintances. A grand staircase with gently rising stairs would prevent Louise from becoming winded while ascending to the two upper levels. The home was built away from the congestion of the city in the beauty of Surrey's rolling hills, but had all the comforts of an urban residence, including a generator for electric lighting. With this home, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle created the seemingly perfect surroundings to prolong and animate the lives of both his wife and his protagonists.
In 1897, the Doyle Family moved into the house, bringing a welcome stability to their lives. It was here that Sherlock Holmes, who had supposedly drowned in the Reichenbach Falls, again came to life in The Hound of the Baskervilles,which was serialized in The Strand Magazine from August 1901 to April 1902. One could convincingly argue that Undershaw was not only the home of Sir Arthur, but also the site of Sherlock Holmes' reincarnation.
In the years that the family lived in the house, between 1897 and 1907, Undershaw was a destination for a number of illustrious personalities and famous English authors. Virginia Woolf visited the home regularly, and could often be found strolling through the beautiful scenery of the grounds. On one particular day, a visit by William Gillette, the renown actor who brought Sherlock Holmes to life, more fully realized the character than on any stage of the era. One year after his beloved Louise's death to tuberculosis, in 1907, Bram Stroker and James Matthew Barrie visited Undershaw, spending many days with Sir Arthur on the golf links and discussing the future of English literature.
Ultimately, the fact that the three fathers of what are arguably some of the most famous figures in English literature met here did not suffice to guarantee the home's preservation. But just imagine a place where Sherlock Holmes and Peter Pan stand waiting for Dracula!

The 90 credit college degree meets the lower bachelor education requirements and once you earn your associate of arts in BA online, you may have access to the modern technologies within this field. Several reasons why students would like to get their associate degree in business is because they're interested in the field and want to find the general education and learning necessary previous to jumping to a bachelor diploma program. Thanks for the tips you provide as part of your blog.

52 / 10042.6
A Mind Forever Voyaging
In this story, you will be PRISM, the world's first sentient machine.The story begins in the world of 2031, a world on the brink of chaos. The economy of the United States of North America (USNA) has been stagnating for decades. Crackpot religions are springing up all over the place. Crime and urban decay are rampant. Schools have become violent, chaotic places ill-suited for educating children. Today's youth frequently use joybooths to "tune-out" the world, leading in the extreme case to joybooth suicide, where a psychological addict wastes away in his or her private nirvana. The global situation is even grimmer. The calcuttization of the Third World has almost reached its limit, causing extreme overpopulation and poverty.
So when Senator Richard Ryder, along with a small group of leaders from government, business, and the universities, announces the Plan for renewed national purpose, everyone is only too willing to embrace it. Only one thing stands between the Plan and its adoption: a test of its validity. That's why you have been "awakened" from your simulated life and had your true nature revealed to you several years ahead of schedule. You have been chosen to use your unique abilities to enter a simulation of the future, based on the tenets of the Plan, in order to check its effectiveness. The eyes of the world are on you.
After a century in stasis the girl En arrives at her destination: A Palace out of legend, a marvel of the old civilization eons gone, still awaiting its first human occupants. Out here, using forgotten technologies, she hopes to bring back a life that shouldn't have been lost.
In ECHO everything has consequence: As you try to wield its magical technologies it becomes apparent that the Palace has a will of its own… It studies everything you do, everything you are – to use it against you.
The Palace creates Echoes – exact copies of you in every way. They behave like you and only do the things you do. So the way you play the game shapes your enemy. If you run, soon the Echoes will get faster. If you sneak, they will get stealthier. If you shoot, they will start to shoot back. The game constantly reacts to your every choice and input.
The Palace "reboots" every few minutes, resulting in a blackout. This blackout-cycle is the rhythm at which the "Echoes" get updated with your latest behavior, learning and unlearning from your actions. During the blackout the palace is blind, giving you the freedom to act without consequence. This is the time to run and gun and do all the things you don't want the Echoes to learn.
The experience is one of being up against your own choices from the last blackout-cycle, giving you a way of shaping the game from cycle to cycle. It is up to you whether you prefer to keep a low profile or if you choose to go head on and deal with the consequences later – one thing is certain you need to keep your wits about you as you face the ultimate enemy: Yourself.
70 / 10083.5
Unclaimed World

Elisabetta Canalis Covers 'Harper's Bazaar Arabia'
Elisabetta Canalis rocks a Dior dress with a Dolce&Gabbana hat on the cover of Harper's Bazaar Arabia's September 2011 issue.
Here's what the 32-year-old Italian model and actress had to share:
On moving to Los Angeles: "I am so in love with this city. I love the weather, the people. L.A. is a big city and there are none of Milano's tall buildings but it's got everything you need. You can drive to the ocean and hit the beach any time."
On staying in shape: "At the beginning [of swimming pool-based exercise classes run by Bootcamp H2O], I was almost dying. But now I'm okay. It's the most complete kind of sport that you can do. I have done sports all my life since I was a kid. I danced, I did kick-boxing. I can't stay [still] without doing any kind of activity."
On her close group of pals: "Real friendships last forever. I only have three or four really good friends … three in Italy and one here [in L.A.] that I can call once a month and they are always there and I will always be there for them. I have a long memory and I don't forget."

A&H Forensic Roofing, LLC offers free forensic roof inspection to help their clients determine which course of action is best for their roof. The forensic inspection includes a comprehensive description of the roof, including the roof composition, life expectancy, age and other issues. As trusted roofing contractors Raleigh NC, A&H Forensic Roofing strives to help clients determine the best route that will maximize the function and benefits of their roof. The company also created a YouTube channel to reach out to more clients and help them with their roofing needs.
Inspecting all parts of the home is the only way to protect an investment from getting damaged prematurely. Homeowners may not notice a problem with their roof and ignore this part of the house. People cannot be too safe when it comes to their roof. An occasional inspection is important to avoid a lot of hassles in the future.
Preventing damage is the most important benefit of a roof inspection. A&H Forensic Roofing analyzes all gutters, corners as well as shingles to determine the spots that can pose problems in the future. Stopping a problem before it happens is the safest way to protect an investment. Even the smallest tear on the roof can expand if the homeowner allows it. Gutters are particularly important to inspect because when these parts are damaged, the risk of flooding in the front lawn is very high.
Aside from preventing problems, roof inspections can also help fix the areas that require repair. A&H Forensic Roofing has a lot of experience and is an expert in differentiating major concerns from small issues. Some problems with the roof may be harmless and only affect its overall look. The necessary repairs can be done to maintain its look, but the roof inspectors at A&H Forensic Roofing are especially concerned with determining the areas that show signs of causing damage so that the necessary repairs can be done. They will determine the main source of problems to prevent recurring situations.
Aside from confirming that one is living in a safe structure, forensic roof inspection will also give homeowners peace of mind knowing that they don't have to worry about their safety. When heavy storms blow, they can sleep comfortably knowing that their roof will not be blown away or leak. A&H Forensic Roofing has a team of experts who have been in the industry for years. They bring the necessary tools and equipment to conduct the roof inspection thoroughly and without disrupting the normal routine of their clients.
Established in 2011, A&H Forensic Roofing is family oriented company that aims to provide only the best service to their clients. The company offers preventative maintenance programs, replacements, repairs as well as restorations for industrial, residential and commercial properties. A&H Forensic Roofing provides value through hands-on, innovative services that follow scientific values. The company takes on every project utmost confidence and professionalism.
