Introduction to the CPR for cables
One common technical language
On 1 July 2013, the European Construction Products Regulation (CPR) entered into force. The aim of the CPR is to provide reliable information on the performance of construction products via a 'common technical language', which defines uniform test methods for the performance of construction products. The CPR permits the free circulations of all construction products in the EU.
According to the CPR, construction products which are permanently incorporated in buildings and civil engineering structures (tunnels, bridges, etc.) must be assessed according to seven basic requirements: 1. mechanical resistance and stability; 2. fire safety; 3. hygiene, health and environment; 4. safety in use; 5. protection against noise; 6. energy and heat conservation; and 7. the sustainable use of natural resources.
Cables are directly involved in this, since they are an essential part of safety in the event of fire.
New performance standards were drafted to define a common technical language for the EU as part of the CPR; these are harmonised rules on product characteristics and associated test methods.
The CPR applies to all construction products that are permanently incorporated into buildings or civil engineering structures such as bridges or tunnels, which therefore includes cables. Power cables, control cables, communication cables and fibre optic cables are all covered by the CPR when installed permanently in a building.
The following cable performance specifications are covered by the CPR
- Reaction to fire: threshold values have been established for flame spread, fire propagation rate, heat release, smoke production, flaming droplets/particles, and acidity. Cables are classified into performance levels called Euroclasses according to these threshold values.
- Fire Resistance: this concerns the ability to remain operational during exposure to fire (functional integrity).
- Release of dangerous substances (refers to the REACH Regulation).
The harmonised EN50575:2014/A1:2016 standard specifies reaction to fire requirements for cables. The standards for functional integrity and the release of dangerous substances will follow at a later stage.
Date of Applicability
The publication in the Official Journal of the EU of the EN50575:2014/A1:2016 standard set 10 June 2016 as the date of entry into force of the CPR for the reaction to fire performance of cables. From that date on, a "coexistence period" or transitional period of 12 months for cables, up to and including 30 June 2017, came into effect to allow manufacturers of cables intended for permanent installation in structures to obtain a fire performance certificate, and draw up a Declaration of Performance (DoP) for each product. During the coexistence period, the CPR and previous national regulations are both applicable: this means that cables which meet the previous national legislation may still be placed on the market. From 1 July 2017, the fire performance of cables may only be assessed according to the Euroclasses. From that date at the latest, national regulations concerning reaction to fire performance must refer to the Euroclasses, and manufacturers may only place "CPR compliant" cables on the market. However, wholesalers and installers may continue to use their stocks of 'old' cables. The CPR only harmonises descriptions of reaction to fire performance. The imposition of a certain level of performance in a specific installation environment remains the task of the national legislators.

The first of which being Studeley Castle.. I've been before and it's just lovely..
The skies were grey for nearly all the visit ...but nonetheless...
I visited the Pheasantry which fortunately was open.. it's been closed for a bit as a very large branch fell from this tree (see middle of picture) and..
Landing on this small structure and crushing it..
and now chopped up into more manageable sizes of logs...
On top of one of the cages.. a free bird!!
Just love this view..
At this point the skies got darker and threatening..
Wandering I found one of two Peacocks.. ..
They are currently shedding their beautiful feathers. and there were many lying about on the ground..
And the heavens opened!!.. So I had some lunch.. just a cuppa and a piece of cake as I wasn't that hungry... and off I went to Bourton House... HOWEVER.. as I got there the heavens opened.. and given I would be walking around some (very beautiful) gardens.. I decided there wasn't much benefit in going in this weather!!
Hopefully, will get there before I go home..

Austin-based artist Monica Alfonso received her MFA in painting in 2006 from Syracuse University and BFA in studio art from The University of Texas at Austin in 2000. She has exhibited her work nationally in juried exhibitions and her work is in many private collections. Monica currently teaches in the School of Art and Design at Texas State University in San Marcos, TX. Her work is inspired by vintage photographs, most specifically family snapshots. While loosely based on the photographic image, the paintings transform the subjects within, and reflect a nostalgic view of the past. The palette and distortions that characterize the paintings are inspired by the aesthetic of the faded photograph.

Each time I read an article about climate change, I feel a violent, visceral fear, almost as though I just realized I was trapped inside a room that was slowly filling up with water. I sweat and tremble and fight the urge to vomit. It takes hours to get my body under control again. The thing is, I don't think I have a psychological problem — I think that other people haven't realized that we are trapped inside a room that is slowly filling up with water.
Climate change is real and if we don't take drastic action it will be a catastrophe — not a short catastrophe like a hurricane or an earthquake that will give us a chance to rebuild — an unending catastrophe that just gets worse and worse. There is no 'end' to global warming. The planet will just get hotter and hotter and hotter year after year, until the few surviving humans are confined to little air-conditioned boxes clustered in the north and south of our planet. We don't know exactly how fast this will happen, or if we will find a way to fix it — perhaps by blocking out the sun with dust which is a nightmare in itself — but this is the path we are on right now. The political response to this slow-motion apocalypse, a disaster worse than anything we have yet imagined including global nuclear war, have been less than window dressing. I can barely stand to look at my two-year-old daughter sometimes because I know she will be inheriting a broken planet. Because I can see as plain as day that she, or her children, or her children's children will likely choose not to procreate because the coming centuries will only get worse and worse.
There are two types of people preventing political leaders from taking action at this point. The first group doesn't believe in climate change, or doesn't think it could really be as bad as people say it will be, because they have been fooled by an extensive and expensive disinformation campaign. Letting these people dictate global policy is about as wise as letting a toddler walk into traffic because they think they will be fine. Yes, they might be mad at you, yes they might kick and scream and say they hate you, yes, you might not be re-elected — but they don't deserve to be locked inside a room that is slowly filling up with water. If you take action and lose the next election, you will be remembered as a hero. If you listen to them, you will have it on your conscience for the rest of your life, even after they realize how much you actually cared about them and tried to keep them safe. The second group is those who understand climate change, but deny it, because they want to continue to profit of fossil fuels and the industries that surround them. A pedophile destroys the lives of a handful children because of an unconscious compulsion — and this behavior is rightfully abhorred and reviled — people who would profit off the death of the entire planet are consciously choosing to destroy the lives of billions, so how should we feel about them? Taking political advice from such people is immoral, repulsive and, frankly, psychotic.
The ONLY people who should be designing global climate policy are climate scientists. Not backroom policy analysts, not your cabinet, not your MPs, not the handful of undecided voters who modern politicians put so much effort into pandering to. You ask the climate scientists how to fix it, and you do what they say, you build public transit and renewables, you tax carbon and ban new fossil fuel projects, you require companies to allow telecommuting, you do whatever it takes. Crash the economy if you have to, we crashed it five years ago and we all survived. Yes, there might be some short term pain but we are talking about the future of humanity. Our grandparents fought World War II, we can suck it up and and find new ways to make ends meet. I know there are many important issues on your plate, but this is the only issue that could end us as a species, and you have many other people working under you and around to make sure the other things keep moving forward in the mean time. Please, please, please take action now, because those of us who have thought about this with a long-term perspective are standing knee-deep in water, looking around for sturdy shelves to balance our children on before we drown.
- My comment about crashing the economy if you have to, wasn't to imply that we ought to crash the economy, it may be that new public transit and research actually improves the economy by shifting investment to things that are less purely profitable, but more labour intensive than oil. However, the idea that we can't implement policies because they 'might' crash the economy is like telling the fire department you don't want them to spray water on your flaming home because it 'might' flood the basement.
- 2) My comment about not listening to uninformed people is not to say that we should disregard them, but that they shouldn't be setting the details of climate policy, just as we should be asking average people if a certain chemical should or shouldn't be banned in food or whether or not we should return to the gold standard. We should be asking them what kind of world they want to live in, what their priorities are, how they envision the future and the technical details of creating that world should be worked out by experts in the relevant fields. Governments can and constantly do institute policies that are against the will of the people or outside the understanding of the people, look at TPP it is wildly unpopular as far as I know and it was negotiated IN SECRET. The fact that they are willing to make policies this way to benefit transnational corporations, but not in the name of the planet earth shows who they are really listening to.

This cheerful face welcomes us as we arrive in the morning, as she has already been working for a couple hours! She has her Not Just Coffee latte in hand and is dressed to the nines every day. Lisa is an inspiring individual, and we are honored to share a little more about her with you!
Tell us about yourself!
Lisa went to school at Lehigh University studying Bioengineering and later completed her Masters at the University of Pennsylvania studying to commercialize medical devices.
What is your company all about?
Lisa actually started her own business called Kemo Sabe in which she partners with multiple clients to utilize new technology that helps prevent further injuries. One of her many clients in UNYQ, which she is working with out of HQ Charlotte to help grow their Charlotte location.
UNYQ is a company committed to making creative covers for prosthetics. "[UNYQ] is taking style to stigma… integrating design to [make] fashionable bracing." The people at UNYQ want these braces and prosthetics covers to be something the users are proud of. UNYQ wants users not to hide their needs, but to "enable their ability, to feel empowered, to reflect their personality."
What/who inspired you to choose the path that you chose?
"My dad used to take me to his lab and I would look into the microscopes, but I didn't really see anything. Bones you can see." Lisa understands that of which she can see, relating to her engineering background.
"[In school] as an engineer, I didn't relate to bridges or roads, but I did relate to orthopedics and medicine." Lisa learned to apply those same principles to the body and achieve the same things. So she made the best of both worlds and decided to combine the medical field with the business/corporate field. This entrepreneurial woman quickly found out that she could be a big influencer amongst leading medical surgeons in the world.
What does being part of a community mean to you?
"We all need our networks to survive and thrive." Lisa expresses that HQ Charlotte is great because it has very many avenues in culture, finance, entrepreneurial, and even a big advantage in startups. "It's nice to bring all those together to move those together, fluidly."
What do you think makes Charlotte such a great place to grow your business?
"Great location- great talent pool." Lisa realized that most large trauma centers and health care providers lie on the East Coast, making the state of North Carolina a great place, in general, to start a business in the medical field. Additionally, she expressed that most of UNYQ's business comes from the East Coast as well. Lisa mentioned the lower cost of living, central location, and quality and standard of life is all great- making Charlotte a perfect place to grow a business in. She also added that there's great weather, great coffee, and great things to do on the weekend!
What is one piece of advice would you give to emerging entrepreneurs
"Well… a couple of things!"
"Know what success looks like. Be able to define what success looks like for you." Lisa expresses the importance of knowing what your success is supposed to look like because if you can't realize what that looks like, you may end up spending more time than necessary getting there.
"Know what makes you great. What gives you value." Knowing what unique value you bring to the table is important not just in an interview, but in life knowing what you want to do and where you want to go. "If you can't state that, you need to keep thinking."
- Not Just Coffee order
- Caramel latte with an extra shot.
- Go-to stress reliever
- Walking outside.
- Least favorite food
- Negroni. Looks pretty but tastes like gasoline. And meatloaf.
- One movie you have seen more than 5 times
- Amelie. It's French. It's great.

Today's post is something a little out of the ordinary: I'm sharing what's behind the scenes of my picture perfect food. Because let's be real, if you knew me in person at all, you'd know that I'm a ball of chaos. I'm messy, but yet OCD about certain things. For example, my cell phone is always in my left pocket (please don't pick-pocket me), whenever I leave my house, I check for my cell phone, keys, wallet… or I alternate the weight I put on my feet when I go up stairs or down stairs because otherwise I feel lopsided all day.
I'm clean freak, but I'm a messy clean freak. If that makes any sense. I'm intense about germs, but I have a fairly cluttered desk. I didn't think to take a photo of it to share with you guys… which is probably for the best anyway.
Excuse my erratic writing today, I'm exhausted and I worked 11 hours today so bear with me. I'll try to be back to normal on Monday. Anyway, here's a shot of what is my usual photography setup if I'm shooting in direct sunlight. I use that light reflector as a light diffuser in the window and I use white foam core to reflect soft light on the baked apple chips I did last week. My iconic hardwood table (Kijiji for $50!) is pulled out from the wall about 3 feet to get the light from the window and is topped with a myriad of burns, scuff marks, and dings because I'm an idiot.
So usually you see the "pretty" side of the table. What I never show you is the clustercluck that's on the other side of what is usually my reflector (normally I shoot in indirect light, so that diffuser is usually covered in a shiny material depicted in the 3rd picture, and replaces the white foam core).
It's usually food props I'm not in love with for the shot, random ingredients, garnishes, spoons, etc. There you can see my very sophisticated reflector stand (yes, that's an empty plastic container). A spill of hemp seeds from earlier that day, a zen garden, an orange, a plate with an apple core, a camera lens, my iPhone, a powdered sugar shaker, the mandoline knuckle protector thing from slicing the apples.
Basically the other side of the reflector is crazy. Sometimes I'm afraid my roommate absolutely hates me, and I'm dreading the day my new roommate moves in and regrets moving in with me. (I WILL FEED YOU ALL THE FOOD DENISE, FORGIVE ME IN ADVANCE).
Next is something that all of my neat-freak friends just try not to look at whenever they're at my house. That my friends, is the makeshift "pantry" that I have in my apartment because not only do I have too many things in my cupboard in the kitchen, but I have so many random cake decorating gadgets and bulk ingredients that they've overflowed from the kitchen into our living room. The top two shelves of that wee thing is Clara's the bottom and everything to the right and all around the bottom is mine. Actually I took this photo last week, but I've since organized it to make it a little bit nicer by hiding my chaos in pretty coloured IKEA boxes haha.
Guys I discovered the secret to organization.
It's genius.
But that's my reflector material right there. It's a reversible and double sided thing, so on one side it's black, the other gold, that side is silver, and another is white. It's the best $75 I've ever spent.
Next we have a little peek into my kitchen, where I normally have a bajillion dishes (again, I'm so sorry Clara <3). It's not that I never do dishes, it's that I accumulate so many dishes that even when I do them 2x a day, I still have a sink full of dishes. Plus, what completely inept n00b engineered that sink? Who puts half a foot of counter space on either side of a sink? Why not 1 foot on one side? Has this person never had to wash dishes before?! It took me 6 months to find a dishrack that even fit the tiny counter edge. And that one doesn't have a drainer for the water… I have to alternate dishcloths underneath to absorb the water.
I'm dreaming of the day I have an actual kitchen, with cupboards that actually close, with a walk-in pantry (who needs a walk-in closet, give me a walk-in pantry), and counter space.
And that's about all there is behind the scenes for JSA. Is there other stuff you want to see? My photography routine, editing/programs… whatever? Today a bunch of other of my fellow blog friends shared their behind the scenes, so check them out below =)
JSA will return to it's regular programming probably Monday, but possibly Thursday because I have a presentation on Monday.

Durango, Mexico
Durango Cuisine | What to Eat in Durango
Hotels in Durango | Business Hotels in Durango | Deals in Durango
Due to the dry desert climate in Durango, it is not surprising that its inhabitants found it necessary to preserve foods so that their fruits, vegetables, and meats didn't spoil. The initial recipes were tasteless, so they began adding spices, mainly cumin and pepper. To add a touch of heat, it was also common to use chile pasado, which is green chili that is sun-dried, roasted, and peeled. Because of its Spanish influence and the need to preserve the food, the cuisine of Durango is unique and one of a kind.
Traditional Dishes
Durango is one of the leading producers of cattle and poultry, and much of its cuisine consists of rich dishes prepared with meat and cheese. Among the most popular are a soup made from dried or fresh meat with chile pasado; gallinas borrachas, which literally translates to "drunk chickens" bathed in sherry or white wine and flavored with pecans, raisins, and almonds; asado de bodas, a stew prepared with diced pork and sweet and sour sauce, chicharrones de vieja, which are made from fried goat; enchiladas in peanut sauce stuffed with chicken and seasoned with poblano chili; and asado de venado (grilled venison) with diced ham.
Equally tasty and enjoyed by the people of Durango is queso flameado, which is cheese roasted over a flame with liquor and mixed with chorizo, sweet peppers, or sliced poblano peppers. For weekend get-togethers, barbecuing is very popular, as is the discada, which consists of several types of grilled meats served with spring onions, chorizo and tortillas.
Years ago, to prevent fruits from spoiling, they were chopped and left to simmer with sugar so that they could be used for jams or syrups. Today, these old recipes make up a variety of the desserts in traditional Durango cuisine, including gelatin desserts made from quince, pear, peach, and apple. The sliced apples and sun-dried peaches are also delicious, as is the sweet potato and pumpkin sweetened with honey and brown sugar.
The list of desserts seems endless, thanks to the skill and creativity of chefs in Durango who blend just the right ingredients for delicacies, such as pan de pulque (pulque bread), torrejas de miel de maguey (French toast with agave syrup), semitas de anis (sweet bread withanise), rollos de camote (sweet potato rolls), buñuelos bañados en piloncillo (fritters with brown sugar), gorditas de nata (clotted cream biscuits), or fruit paste made with quince and guava. You also don't want to miss the mostachones, which are baked candies made from evaporated milk, sugar, and a hint of lemon zest.
Without a doubt, mescal is a drink that's never absent from the table in Durango. After Oaxaca, Durango is the country's second largest producer of this drink. The mescal from Durango has a mild sweet flavor due to the wild agave, and it's popular both within Mexico and internationally, especially in the United States.

College Foundation
The vision of the MiraCosta College Foundation is to ensure that no one is denied access to education because of financial need and that resources are available to enrich the college experience for all students. The Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation governed by a volunteer board of community leaders and administered by the Office of Development and College Foundation. Over the past five years, the Foundation has more than doubled contributions to the college, which in turn tripled the number of students who receive scholarships and doubled private resources that support campus programs. One of the Foundation's priorities is the MiraCosta Promise, which will offer a year of college without fees to eligible students. The Promise will also provide funding toward textbooks and instructional supplies to those who commit to the Promise requirements.
Individuals, corporations, and civic groups work with the MiraCosta College Foundation to achieve their philanthropic goals. Many choose to fund scholarships, while others support the enhancement of academic programs and facilities through the President's Circle. Benefactors contribute between $1,000 and $10,000 annually and support a variety of needs at the college, including student scholarships, capital projects, program enhancement grants, and educational equipment. President's Circle members are invited to meet with MiraCosta's president to learn about the college and its role in the community and to share their ideas, thereby creating a valuable link between the college and the communities it serves.
Mission & Institutional Goals
The MiraCosta Community College District mission is to provide superior educational opportunities and student-support services to a diverse population of learners with a focus on their success. MiraCosta offers undergraduate degrees, university-transfer courses, career-and-technical education, certificate programs, basic-skills education, and lifelong learning opportunities that strengthen the economic, cultural, social, and educational well-being of the communities it serves.
Institutional Goals
Goal I. MiraCosta Community College District will become a vanguard educational institution committed to innovation and researched best practices, broad access to higher education, and environmental sustainability.
Goal II. MiraCosta Community College District will become the institution where each student has a high probability of achieving academic success.

Location& Area Information
The MiraCosta Community College District is located in San Diego County along the Southern California coast, between Orange County to the north and the metropolitan area of San Diego to the south. The district is approximately 35 miles north of San Diego and 90 miles south of Los Angeles. The District includes the cities of Oceanside, Carlsbad, Encinitas, Rancho Santa Fe, Solana Beach, Del Mar, the unincorporated areas of La Costa, Olivenhain, and portions of Carmel Valley and Camp Pendleton Marine Base.
North San Diego County is nationally known for its exceptional K-12 schools and the plethora of superb higher education choices. Public school districts served by MiraCosta College include Carlsbad, Cardiff, Del Mar, Encinitas, Oceanside, Rancho Santa Fe, San Dieguito, and Solana Beach. Local colleges and universities include Cal State San Marcos, National University, Palomar College, San Diego State University, UCSD and University of San Diego, among others.
The San Diego Tourism Authority website describes San Diego's North County as a vast, expansive region known for its pristine beaches, nature preserves and miles of open spaces. From Del Mar to Oceanside, the North County coastline is a string of unique picturesque seaside villages that have a small-town feel.
If you're looking for opportunities for outdoor activities in San Diego, the north region has plenty. From hiking and horseback riding in Los Peñasquitos Canyon Preserve, stand-up paddle boarding and kayaking in Carlsbad Lagoon, to biking along historic Highway 101, or sport fishing, whale watching or surfing the coastline from La Jolla through Oceanside, outdoor enthusiasts are sure to be entertained. San Diego's north coastal town of Encinitas was recently named among the best surf towns in the world by National Geographic.
The North County Coastal region is home to some of San Diego's top attractions, including LEGOLAND California, Sea Life Aquarium and Legoland Water Park, the Flower Fields at Carlsbad, and the Del Mar Fairgrounds, host to the Del Mar Fair from mid-June to early July, followed by the Del Mar Thoroughbred Races until early September. There's also the San Diego Botanic Garden for a look at San Diego native flora and fauna, and at the Eastern border of North County, you'll also find the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, Las Vegas-style Indian casino gaming and a handful of great wineries and local breweries. Art enthusiasts will love the Oceanside Museum of Art and the LUX Art Institute.
San Diego's North County coastal and inland regions are also a paradise for golfers, with over 40 diverse courses to choose from. Graced by cooling breezes from the Pacific Ocean, the Arnold Palmer-designed Park Hyatt Aviara and Tom Fazio-designed Grand Del Mar golf courses are uniquely sculpted around the natural landscapes and native vegetation.
San Diego's North region puts you just an hour from Disneyland yet still close to downtown San Diego where the museums of Balboa Park, the San Diego Zoo, the Gaslamp Quarter and SeaWorld San Diego are nearby.
North San Diego County is home to eight of the country's fastest-growing cities, businesses and families are drawn to North County's sunny inland valleys and scenic coastal communities.

Monday 1st October 2012 - 17:00 to 18:00
INI Seminar Room 1
As a complement to the ongoing Newton Institute program "Multiscale Numerics for the Atmosphere and Ocean", we consider another component of climate systems, namely land ice. The melting of ice in Greenland and Antarctica would, of course, be by far the major contributor to sea level rise. Thus, to make science-based predictions about sea- level rise, it is crucial that the ice sheets covering those land masses be accurately mathematically modeled and computationally simulated. In fact, the 2007 IPCC report on the state of the climate did not include predictions about sea level rise because it was concluded there that the science of ice sheets was not developed to a sufficient degree so that such predictions could not be rationally and confidently made. In recent years, there has been much activity in trying to improve the state-of-the-art of ice sheet modeling and simulation. In this lecture, we review a hierarchy of mathematical models for the flow of ice, pointing out the relative merits and demerits of each, showing how they are coupled to other climate system components, and discussing where further modeling work is needed. We then discuss algorithmic approaches for the approximate solution of ice sheet flow models and present and compare results obtained from simulations using the different mathematical models.

It's been sitting on the shelf for a little while, but Elektra Luxx, the sequel to director Sebastian Gutierrez's 2009 film Women in Trouble, finally has a trailer. The film stars Carla Gugino as a former porn star who agrees to seduce a woman's fiancée but ends up getting drawn into a world of wacky intrigue. In addition to Gugino, the film's got a great cast which includes Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Timothy Olyphant, Adrianne Palicki, Emmanuelle Chriqui, Marley Shelton, and Malin Akerman. But the real reason to see it is Gugino in skimpy clothing.
Hit the jump to check out the trailer. Elektra Luxx is due out March 11th.
Click over to Apple to see the trailer in HD.
Here's the official synopsis for Elektra Luxx:
Recently retired from the adult film industry, superstar Elektra Luxx (Carla Gugino) is pregnant with the child of late rock star Nick Chapel. She is trying to make ends meet by teaching a community college sex education class aimed at housewives when a figure from her past, flight attendant Cora (Marley Shelton), approaches her with a proposition. In exchange for the (stolen) lyrics to Nick Chapel's last record, all of which is about Elektra, Cora needs Elektra to seduce her fiancee. Elektra reluctantly agrees to do this favor, setting in motion a series of hilarious events which will see her come face to face with detectives, sex bloggers, emotionally unstable neighbors and the Virgin Mary herself as she wrestles with the prospect of motherhood and tries to become a person of substance.

Time is short - Energy Services Certified Labourers help make the most of it
It's site setup or tear down time again – labour intensive processes that demand extra hands for a short spurt of effort. General labourers are okay but having some Energy Services Certified Labourers would be the best of all worlds.
Your guys can get it done, it's true. They're good but there are only a few of them during this tight job schedule.
So, where can you get some quality extra help on short notice? Help that is:
- Trained up
- Field-seasoned
- Certified in all the necessary HSE
- D&A tested
Paradox answers. Again.
When a Paradox crew takes care of your matting or earthworks or any contracted service, you see experienced and skilled workers executing the job expertly and professionally.
Guess what? Paradox crew members also have several layers of HSE accreditation. Some are trained on heavy equipment, too.
Bottom line: Paradox may be able to set you up with the extra hands you need to put the task in the rear-view ASAP. Skilled bodies that can assist your crew with that transitional work right now. No waiting. Get it done.
Never knew that?
Now you do.
Paradox crew members have the highest level of regulatory permits and licenses in the business. While Paradox isn't an agency, we're willing to happily share the guys and their skills during downtime between jobs.
We're talking:
- Drivers
- Equipment operators
- Unskilled labour
They would feel at home with any mining, oil and gas, forestry or road construction company.
Now we're talking
See if Paradox can solve your temporary labour shortage with a "quick and dirty" subcontract. If so, you know that you will be provided with quality support personnel that meet or exceed all regulatory constraints in heavy industry.
Whether you're doing road construction or laying down some geocell, getting it done is only one thing you won't have to fret about.
You can also not worry about:
- Recruitment
- D&A testing
- Basic orientation and training
- Payroll and timesheets
- Buyouts and pension adjustments
It's all included.
When your transition job is done, shake hands with the temporary crew and send them home to Paradox.
Energy Services Certified Labourers. Your time is money, so spend it wisely.

- A technically and artistically complex process of distilling millions of choices into a beautiful finished product within budget can be made fun and simple for everybody involved.
- Clients are to be delighted with both design and value in equal measure.
- Value is a function of how long a product gives you enjoyment.
- The way we listen and respond to our clients is the key to their satisfaction, and client's needs often vary significantly from project to project.
- Investing in continual learning, and sharing what is learnt, is necessary in order for us to grow individually and as a business.
- Transparency is critical in the methods and materials used, the benefits/downsides of each, and their costs.
- Our dynamic display acts as both a great inspiration and source of education for our clients.
- Craftsmanship comes from uncompromising quality, hard work and hard won experience.
- Some things should last forever.
Matisse is an active member of the PPFA, and exceed the guidelines for framing set by them.
Who We Are
Matisse Framing is a family-owned landmark Picture Framing business that has been operating since 1982. Matisse Framing consists of a small, devoted and talented team.
Campbell Hughes
Campbell's love of framing was forged by his father, Gerald, who worked for one of Queensland's best Framing businesses in the early 1970's. Gerald founded his own business, Hughes Mouldings, from their garage in 1974. Hughes Mouldings designed and commissioned the first aluminium framing (and fittings) for Australian framing businesses. Campbell joined Hughes Mouldings in 1983, and in the 21 years spent there, was a key driver in the business growing to be one of the largest suppliers to the Picture Framing industry in Australia.
As well as being head framer, Sales and Marketing are Campbell's responsibility at Matisse, and he is always trying to make the complex process of having something framed easy and fun to be part of.
When he isn't working, Campbell loves playing with things with two wheels, and has a weakness for post-punk and early electronic music.
Sylvie Hughes
Sylvie is the heart of Matisse Framing and it is most likely her that you will see first when you walk through the front door. Sylvie cares for the happiness of the clients of Matisse Framing in a genuine way that is increasingly rare in these fast moving times. She is the person who makes sure all of Matisse's i's are dotted and t's are crossed, and is the final word on quality control. Rest assured that no work will be handed to you without her having scrutinized every aspect of it.
When she isn't working, Sylvie loves everything related to cooking, including growing as much fresh produce as she can manage.
Olivia Hughes
Olivia (one of Campbell and Sylvie's three daughters) has a strong artistic streak, having been elected Visual Arts Captain for her final year of high school. After a time working in high-end women's fashion, Olivia now feels she has found her calling in framing, and immensely enjoys working in all aspects of designing and making frames. Olivia is often asked for her opinion on colours and textures used in a design, as she has a natural flair for this.
When she isn't working, Olivia will be found looking after her Beagle Peanut.
The Matisse Process
1 Design
In order for you to be able to trust that your framing will be suitable for you, we will first need to ask questions. Questions like;
Where is it going to hang?
Is it for yourself, or is it a gift?
Is it solely for decoration, or is it important that it is protected?
What is your style?
Based on your responses to the above questions, our trained, experienced people will be able to narrow down the millions of possible combinations to 2 or 3 that you love. You will be given an approximate date when your work will be ready, which is normally within a fortnight.
2 Manufacture
Once you finalise your frame design, Matisse will take responsibility for your artwork. Matisse have secure premises with bars on all windows and doors. Your artwork will not leave the premises and will only be handled by our staff. You will find that every frame manufactured has a "piece" number, and if UV protective glazing was used, this will also be on the back of your frame.
3 Inspection
After passing through our own inspections at each manufacturing step, your framed artwork is again reviewed for a final time. It's about exceeding our own high expectations.
4 Collection or shipping
You will receive a text or call, based on your preference, to confirm that your framing has been completed. Rest assured knowing that Matisse Framing aim to delight our clients. If your framed piece isn't working when you get it home, tell us and we'll make it right. We keep records of all work done, so that if you should ever need repairs or replacement, we can do it with no fuss.
Should you require, we can easily arrange delivery of your framed items when complete, and secure packaging if you are interstate or overseas.

Published in BDnews24.com opinion Section on November 28th.
Rumi Ahmed
It's not personal
The manner in which the leader of the opposition and former prime minister Khaleda Zia was evicted from her cantonment residence was outright shocking to most observers of Bangladesh politics. Not only the physical eviction itself, but the way the opposition leader was literally pushed out of her home of 38 years by an overwhelming government force, speaks volumes of its 'autocratic' mentality. The whole chain of events surrounding the eviction process was totally unforeseen in the history of democratic Bangladesh.
Notable in the chain of events were the mind-blowing fast tracking of judiciary, manipulation of hazy legal jargons, and ultimately bypassing of the highest judiciary to push forward with the government's agenda to remove the opposition leader from her home. The media manipulation of the event was also unprecedented for a democratic government. Advancing on what the previous military-controlled regime did, from the day before the incident, the media was fed with concocted stories of Khaleda Zia leaving her home willingly. And on the day of the event and the day after, the naked dishonesty and partisanship of the defence department's press wing, ISPR, was simultaneously a painful reminder of the demise of the armed forces as neutral public servants and the last nail in the coffin of an institutional balance of power under present government.

A Tattered Page, ATP, books, cursed events, event, experments in shopping, second life, The Martian Chronicles, update
Who wants to see the Future, who ever does? A man can face the Past, but to think – the pillars crumbled, you say? And the sea empty, and the canals dry, and the maidens dead, and the flowers withered?" The Martian was silent, but then he looked ahead. "But there they are. I see them. Isn't that enough for me? They wait for me now, no matter what you say." Ray Bradbury, The Martian Chronicles
In 24 hours, the book will close on The Martian Chronicles at the Tattered Page Library. (well, in reality, it probably won't really happen until Monday. I see littlepoint in not letting the weekend run out for it, but you get the idea.)
This round has been yet another wonderful learning experience. We've found out that people LOVE that library, and yes, we'll be keeping it for future rounds. People are passionate about this little geeky event in a way that isn't seen very often. ATP has spawned so many conversations about stories, books and authors. Our merchants are just delighted to be able to use actual books as design prompts, and to be given an excuse to walk away from their computers and simply read (and not feel guilty about not working.) Our bloggers have done an absolutely OUTSTANDING job. I know I don't post much while the event is ongoing (because otherwise I just ramble and repeat myself) but please do check out everyone's hard work though the links on our blogger page, as well as our Flickr group.
At some point tomorrow I will open applications for round three. The next round of ATP will open on March 7.
However, between now and then, we have Futurewave opening on February 13.
Thanks to everyone for joining us this round and keep an eye open for the new application for round three, tomorrow.

Auriculo 3D desktop software helps you master this powerful therapy—without paging through dozens of books or consulting confusing charts. There are over 300 recognized auriculotherapy points on the ear, and thousands of combinations to treat nearly any problem imaginable. Designed for both clinical use and personal study, Auriculo 3D puts all this information at your fingertips with the click of a mouse. Pictures are two-dimensional. Ears are not. With over 300 auricular points, sometimes a flat, two-dimensional picture simply isn't enough to see EXACTLY where to locate the point you need. Is it on the surface or under that flap? Is it on the surface that's facing toward me, or the one that's facing away? Guessing won't do it; you need to be sure. That's why we developed Auriculo 3D. Our advanced 3-D ear model lets you rotate, zoom, and move the ear so you can see exactly where the points are located. Whether hidden or open, you'll confidently locate any point in seconds.
Zygote Body renders manipulable 3D anatomical models of the human body. Several layers from muscle tissues down to blood vessels could be made transparent to allow better study of individual body parts. Most of the body parts were labeled and searchable.
BodyMaps is an interactive visual search tool that allows users to explore the human body in 3-D. With easy-to-use navigation, users can search multiple layers of the human anatomy, view systems and organs down to their smallest parts, and understand in detail how the human body works.
Using detailed 3-D models of body parts-including muscles, veins, bones, and organs-Body Maps offers a new way to visualize and manage your health. See how the coronary artery delivers blood to the heart, and learn how plaque build-up on artery walls leads to heart disease. Locate the exact location of a pulled muscle or broken bone, and find information on how to prevent injuries. View a cross-section of the human brain, and learn which areas control certain emotions and body functions.
By offering rich, detailed anatomical images alongside links to relevant and useful health information, BodyMaps allows you to leam about your body and your health in a personalized and revolutionary new way.
The Interactive Body has students place bones, muscles, and organs in their proper place using a simple drag and drop interface. Along with the "jigsaw" style activity of the Interactive Body the BBC offers fact files about each part of the body.
eSkeletons provides an interactive environment in which to examine and learn about skeletal anatomy. The purpose of this site is to enable you to view the bones of both human and non-human primates and to gather information about them from our osteology database.
Anatomy Arcade makes basic human anatomy come ALIVE through awesome free flash games, interactives and videos.
Inner Body: Explore the human body like never before! With hundreds of interactive anatomy pictures and descriptions of thousands of objects in the body, InnerBody.com will help you discover what you want to know about human anatomy, right here at your fingertips.

Build-A-Body is a drag and drop game where players are tasked with assembling an organ system from a set of organs. Players may then attempt case studies where a functional problem with a system must be linked to the organ affected. Learn about the body's systems with this drag and drop game. Choose organs from the organ tray, and place them in their correct position within the body to create organ systems.
Medical Animation Library: The University of Pennsylvania Health System provides nearly 200 video animations and explanations of injuries, diseases, and body systems. The animations, like this one of a balloon angioplasty, are concise which makes them good for general reference purposes.
Get Body Smart: GetBodySmart represents my attempt to create a fully animated and interactive eBook about human anatomy and physiology. The contents and design of this long-term project are based on my 21 years of teaching this material at the university level.
BioDigital Human™ has been hailed as "Google Maps meets the human body" and provides a glimpse into the future of medical education. At the tips of your fingers, on a sleek user interface, BioDigital Human™ is a virtual 3D body that brings to life thousands of medically accurate anatomy objects and health conditions in an interactive web-based platform.
Have you ever been curious about what the body is made of, how it works, and what each part does? Then you've probably had an interest in anatomy. Your body has several important systems, all working in tandem with each other. Here, we'll examine these systems and how they work.
The human body isn't just one big system, it is actually made up of many different separate systems, all working together to make sure that you, as a whole, function correctly. Each system has special parts and functions that it has to perform in order to keep you healthy and well. If any of the separate systems stops working or doesn't work like it should, the whole body will suffer. Learning about different body systems will help you know what you need to do to stay healthy and strong.

|Joe and Tom Nicolosi of DiNic's
It's no surprise that Man vs. Food host Adam Richman returned to DiNic's for his new program, Best Sandwich in America. In reruns of the former show he can be seen wearing a DiNic's t-shirt in episodes featuring foods from Kansas City and Cleveland, among other cities.
The show starts at 9 p.m. Most Comcast subscribers in Philadelphia can catch it on channels 188 or 840. If you miss it, repeats are scheduled for 12 a.m. tonight, 12 a.m. Saturday, 10 p.m. Sunday, 1 a.m. Monday, and again next Wednesday at 9:30 p.m. and Thursday, June 14 at 12 a.m. and 8 p.m. Still missed it? It will be in regular rotation at various times through June 25.
For a rundown of the sandwiches in the competition, see my April 12 post.

About Multilingual Manchester
Our language diversity adds an exciting dimension to our opportunities to learn from each other and come to understand each other all the more. Language difference needn't be a barrier that separates people, but a bridge to bring people together and build relationships by sharing our personal histories and values, and finding ways to communicate about language difference, not in spite of it.
Councillor Sue Murphy, Deputy Leader, Manchester City Council, speaking at the launch event of the Multilingual Manchester 'Linguasnapp' app on 23 February 2016
Language and cultural diversity is a permanent feature of all major cities around the world, and Manchester is no exception. Over 150 languages are spoken in the Greater Manchester area. Almost half of school pupils in Manchester have a home language other than English. Communities cherish and cultivate their language heritage. Multilingualism is part of our urban landscape of public signs, posters, and banners. Many among Manchester's work force have excellent foreign language skills, enabling them to communicate directly with business partners around the world. The city's commercial sector includes services that specialise in international customer services, translation and interpreting, and consultancy and advertising in other languages.
At Multilingual Manchester, we promote awareness of language diversity in the city-region and beyond. We study the practical challenges and the immense opportunities that language diversity brings. We explore how it shapes people's language repertoires and practices.
Our teaching, research and outreach strands take inspiration from current issues raised by practitioners and communities, who strive to ensure equality of access to services as well as the maintenance of Manchester's rich array of home languages. We work with local government, healthcare providers, police and emergency services, schools and community initiatives to co-design research and to share good practice.
Students are an integral part of our work. They contribute to research and outreach activities. Multilingual Manchester has created the world's largest online archive of research reports authored entirely by undergraduate students.
Our student volunteer scheme engages students from a range of academic disciplines. They support the work of host institutions across the city, gaining valuable insight into service delivery in a diverse, dynamic city.
Multilingual Manchester is based at the School of Arts, Languages and Cultures at the University of Manchester.
Manchester's language diversity is an incredible asset and I am delighted to be part of a project which highlights this. After working closely with schoolchildren and services in the city, I can confidently say that our numerous languages are not a barrier, but a rich resource which holds powerful potential on a local and global scale.Alex Robertson
