There is no action required. As soon as we launch next year's event, we will contact you with details of how to claim your entry.

Riders must be aged 18 years or above by the start of the event to be allowed to enter the event.
We welcome teams on the event! Please see below for more info.
Teams of friends: As we need all medical and dietary info from each participant we need each individual to register seperately. You will be able to create a team on the registration form that you can share with your friends, so that we can link you with your other team mates. This is important so that we know to put you in the same camping zone for the event.
Corporate teams: If you are interested in entering a corporate team, please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com. We can invoice your company for the places so the individuals don't have to pay on registration when signing up. We will also let you know how we can support your pre-event experience on elements such as kit design and training days.
Yes, there is the option to pay your entry fee in instalments. More details regarding the instalment schedule for each package is available in the Rules and Regulations at the bottom of this page.

The race pack will include your rider number with cable ties, a luggage label and your participant wristband.
If you have any questions about your pack, please head to the Info Desk on your first day of the event.
We highly recommend that riders take out suitable insurance to cover themselves and their bikes during, and in the lead up to the event.
If riders are suitably insured, they will be covered should they have to pull out for any reason and we will provide the necessary documentation to give to their insurers to be reimbursed the entry fee.

A full kit list is provided on Participant Rider Platform which you'll have access to when you sign-up.
You don't need to have the latest carbon fibre racing bike to complete the event. However, you do want one which is comfortable, safe and light enough that you can cover the distance efficiently. Please find below a list of our permitted and not permitted bikes.
* We will permit the use of e-bikes if you have a registered disability and an e-bike will enable you to complete the event. Please see the Rules and Regulations (4.12.20) for more details.
Yes. Safety out on the road is paramount to us so we cannot allow you to ride without one.
Any lost property found on the event will be handed to the Info desk for you to collect at the Start, Basecamp and Finish. We will take this back to our office after the event so please send us an email if you have lost anything. Please note, any unclaimed lost property will be disposed of after 2 weeks.
We will transport your bags for you from the start to your final destination each day. In your registration pack you will be given a luggage label with your participant number on it to attach to any luggage so it is easy to find at the end of the day. You'll just need to drop bags with us in the morning and it will be there for you to pick them up at the other end.
We will be providing a laundry service on the ride at an additional cost for those doing the 'classic' or 'plus' package. This will enable you to get your cycling kit cleaned on days 3, 5 and 7 of the ride meaning you will need to bring three sets of cycling kits with you.
As well as this, there will be washing facilities available for you to wash your other kits and there a drying room available at each basecamp for you to leave your kit overnight to dry to pick up in the morning.
You are not permitted to provide your own tent and camp on site.
All basecamp space is reserved for the event set up and event vehicles. If you wish to camp overnight on site you will need to book the relevant package.
Family and friends are welcome in basecamp between 3.00pm and 8.00pm each day. They will be provided with an accreditation wristband.
Food in the catering area is for riders only but friends and family are more than welcome to purchase drinks from the basecamp bars.
You will cycle on average 110 miles a day, with the longest day being 127 miles.
Yes, the route will be fully signed, with chaperones along route for support.
No. The route is set along quieter roads so there is less traffic (and they're more beautiful). You must still cycle sensibly and safely and obey the Highway Code in order to avoid accidents.
The level of training required will vary depending on the individual. We provide riders with the choice of training plans (novice, intermediate and advance) to get any level of rider into shape to enjoy and complete the ride.
As well as training plans, each of our monthly emails will include a section on responsible riding. It is important to remember that the key factor of training is to get out on the bike as much as you can, as well as learning key skills that you will need for the ride. Therefore it is also recommendable for riders to get some practice group riding, train on undulating terrain and perhaps have a go at a multi-day sportive such as the Dulux London Revolution 2020.
Each day the route will be open for a 12 hour period each day. Therefore, you need to be able to cycle around 10 mph as a minimum. If this sounds like a stretch for you, we recommend following the event training plan provided to you as part of the package.
There will be pit stops roughly every 35-40 miles along the route for you to refresh and sort out any mechanical / medical issues you might be having.
The route is open for 12 hours each day. From 7.00am – 7.00pm.
Please note: Each pit-stop will have a cut off time (determined closer to the start of the event). If you miss the cut off time, you will be asked to get into the broom wagon.
We will have mechanics out on the route to help with any significant issues, but we do ask all riders to bring a small toolkit and to be able to fix their own punctures. We recommend bringing along a kit that includes the following:
We strongly recommend learning how to use this equipment prior to the event, there are many online tutorials on this subject to help you along.
We will have medics out on the route to help with any significant issues, but we do ask all participants to bring a small first aid kit to be able to deal with their own minor issues e.g. blisters, chafing.
Each pit stop and the finish line has a cut off time, which will be publicised before the event and reiterated each day. We operate a 'broom wagon' vehicle to pick up those who fall behind the stated cut off times.
This follows the ride each day and collects those who are unable to complete the stage. The broom wagon then transports them onwards to the next basecamp by the end of each day. Please note that any absence of riding for a day will count as a strike.
The broomwagon will be travelling at an average speed of around 10mph and will leave camp at 8.30am. You are required to stay in front of this at all times or else you will be taken off the route and transported to the next base camp.
We are committed to ensuring that as many riders as possible reach John O'Groats safely which is why we operate a three strike rule.
If you have not been able to complete a day's riding and have gone on the broom wagon, you will get a 'strike' to say you haven't managed to finish that day. If you receive your third strike, this will mean you are unfortunately no longer able to continue on the Ride as we feel it would be unsafe for you to continue due to the demanding nature of the event.
Please note: a strike is applicable if you do not complete a day of the Ride. The strike still applies even if you do not ride and organise your own transport to the next basecamp therefore not going on the broom wagon.
In partnership with Open Tracking, you can now hire a GPS tracker for the duration of the event!
Your tracker will provide accurate location data, available online for your friends and family to view, so they can see how well you're progressing along the route. This is NOT linked to your event timing, but it does mean your supporters can see more accurately where you are throughout the event and how close you are to the finish line!
Visit Open Tracking to book now.
Check out this video to see how the trackers work here.
Your friends and family are welcome to come and see you along the route, but we ask that they avoid pit-stops as these areas are for participants only. A more specific breakdown of the route will be published closer to the event.
The whole entry fee goes towards the costs of the facilities and services put in place for riders. These costs include camping facilities, food – including breakfast, lunch, dinner and pit stop snacks, sports nutrition and facilities for showering/ bathrooms etc.
The fee also goes towards crew service costs on the event such as: chaperones, medical and massage teams, mechanics, luggage transport services and basecamp/ pit stop crew. Check out our What's included page for more information.
On the evening before riding, overnight stay at the Land's End basecamp is included. Riders will be required to arrive from 2pm to register and get their bikes ready for the next day. On the Friday night there will be a rider briefing and an evening meal provided ready to get set and go on the Saturday morning.
On the final day of the ride there is NO overnight accommodation provided. Once riders arrive at the JOG base camp there will be hot soup and coffee's available and riders will usually head off home. A small percentage of riders normally choose to stay overnight up in Scotland near the airport due to flight/ train times and then head off on the Monday.
You will need to bring your own sleeping bag and sleeping mat. Tents will be provided.
Once you've signed up we will send you the event information guide, which has a recommended kit list so you know exactly what you do and do not need to bring.
Tents are 2 man pop up tents (allocated one per person) so if you are participating in a couple you can opt to put your bags in one tent and yourselves in another.
All the hotels will have a minimum of 3 stars. Further detail on each hotel will be sent to you in due course once you have registered.
Please note: on the final night before John O'Groats you will be camping on the main site so please ensure you bring a sleeping bag. A camping mat will be provided.
Rooms will be single occupancy, but there is the option for the plus package to opt for a double occupancy room if you are signing up as a couple.
You will eat dinner and breakfast at the basecamp with the other riders. There will be shuttles running from basecamp to the hotel and back so you are able to travel between the two.
Each day you will start/finish at the basecamp and be shuttled to and from your hotel accommodation.
We will be running shuttles from the basecamp to your hotel from 4pm each day (apart from Friday 4th where there will only be one shuttle at 9.30pm). The exact timings of these shuttles will vary and will depend on the proximity of the hotel to the basecamp.
As we need to coordinate shuttle transport for 90+ riders you may have to wait a short while for your shuttle. You will be able to help yourself to afternoon tea and have a massage while you wait, and also have your day bag available to shower and change into something comfortable.
As you will be eating, having your massage and attending the evening briefing in the basecamp, there will be shuttles going to and from the hotels back to the basecamp. This is particularly for those that arrive early in to the basecamp and want to go back to their hotel before returning to the basecamp for dinner and evening briefing.
Each day you will need to bring your main bag from your hotel room and drop it in the hotel reception. This bag will be transported straight to your next hotel and has a weight limit of 15kg.
You will also need to pack a small day bag that will be transported to the next basecamp. In this bag you should pack washing kit and a spare change of clothes for if you want to shower / change at basecamp while you wait for the transfer to your hotel at the end of the day. This bag has a weight limit of 5kg.
No. If you wish to make use of the laundry service you need to purchase this additionally. This can be purchased when you are registering for the event.
We operate a 7-day cooling off period – during the first 7-days after registration your fee if fully-refundable should you change your mind. After this point, if participants have to cancel their place for any reason, we offer sliding scale refund policy on your entry fee.
The sliding scale is outlined in our Rules and Regulations.
We do provide some options for you if you cannot attend, and they are listed in the following sections.
The refund amount the individual is entitled to will depend on how early they notify us of the need to cancel, as nearer to the Ride the costs for that individual will have already been accounted for. The refund schedule is outlined in our Rules and Regulations.
You can defer your entry to 2021*.
This must take place before midday on 12th June 2020 (Plus package), 23rd August 2020 (Classic package), and there is an Administration Fee to do this. This must be made payable to the Event Organisers. Please refer to the Rules and Regulations for further details.
Please note: you may only defer once, so if you have already deferred the previous year, this option no longer applies to you.
You can transfer your place to another participant.
This must take place before midday on 23rd August 2020 and there is a fee to do this. This must be made payable to the Event Organisers by the outgoing participant. Please refer to the Rules and Regulations for further details.

On 7 March 2019, The Digital Society Institute (DSI) of the University of Twente will have its first symposium in a series of topics on digitalization. We will open the symposium series by looking at cybersecurity.
As the digitalization of society progresses and we increasingly become more dependent on our digital environments and infrastructures, we also become more vulnerable to attacks that were previously unknown to us. For this symposium, we look closer into the evolution of attacks and how we can possibly deal with them. Specifically, we will be discussing vulnerabilities in evolving systems such as the Internet, how we can assess their impact, and ways to detect and mitigate them. Due to the growing interconnection between our physical world with the digital world, we will also be looking at relevant non-technical aspects, including legal factors and the human involvement.
The symposium will take place during the afternoon, with a renowned keynote speaker, short expert talks, and an interactive panel. We target academics and professionals working in the field of cybersecurity from different perspectives, be they technical, social, legal, or ethical. Of course, there will be plenty of time for discussions and networking.
Want to know more? Let us know by registering your interest: https://www.utwente.nl/en/digital-society/cyber-security-symposium/
Date: 7 March 2019
Time: 12:00 – 18:00 pm
Location: University of Twente, U-Parkhotel

I guess I'm a few months behind on this one, still Gladkill's "haunting melodic lovestep" remix of Metric's, "Twilight Galaxy" has easily become my latest favorite (dubstep) track! I simply love it. Not too hard, not too soft, it puts you in a nice peaceful mood that feels just right. √+
Enjoy the free lossless download from the Soundcloud player:
Now for some heavier tracks, I give you the latest from my favorite artists at the the bottom of the alphabet, Zeds Dead and Zomboy. FYI, the Zeds Dead download is sh*tty, so much that I haven't even bothered to grab it. The Zomboy download is an obvious transcoded rip (although not the worst of them I guess) – I'll repost them when they're officially released in 320.
Sabi – Wild Heart (Zeds Dead Remix)

Dance or theatre? Raimund Hoghe's Sacre - The Rite of Spring is unclassifiable, and so an apt opener for the new Spill Festival of experimental theatre, which is dedicated simply to "performance".
Still, the dance element is strong: the piece communicates largely through movement and music. Its ingredients are deceptively simple: two men and a recorded score. But that score is Stravinsky's iconic Rite of Spring, its crashing sonorities and palpitating rhythms rarely matched for sheer physical effect. And the men? Hoghe is tiny, middle-aged, hunchbacked, his deformed spine apparent beneath his formal clothes. The other is tall, young Lorenzo de Brabandere, casually athletic in track bottoms and T-shirt. Put the two together and there is already drama.
Yet Hoghe does not dramatise. The expressionless performers simply enact repeated, ritualistic movements. Their many mirrored gestures set up an elusive equivalence between them, despite their physical differences. They balance against each other, or face each other like reflections, their joined palms circling as if wiping a mirror - or window - that divides them. When the balance of power tips, it is usually towards De Brabandere: he lets Hoghe fall, lifts him upside down, pushes him along the floor.
In a recorded interview that frames the piece, Stravinsky himself says he was a "vessel" for the music. Hoghe's Sacre is also a kind of vessel. It feels opaque, even hollow, and the performers' bodies are as mask-like as their faces; yet turbulent images and feelings keep pouring out.
·The Spill Festival continues until April 22. Details: www.spillfestival.com

In case it wasn't already abundantly clear from the fact that it got a Season 6 renewal before its current season even started, The Walking Dead Season 5 premiere ratings prove that the AMC drama series isn't going anywhere soon. Last night's episode (read Dave's recap here) drew a series high 17.3 million viewers, besting its previous record of 16.1 million viewers for the Season 4 premiere by over 1 million viewers. Moreover, in the all-important 18-49 demo, the episode notched an 8.8 rating. By comparison, that's nearly double the highest rating for any entertainment programming last week, as The Big Bang Theory scored a 4.5 rating in the demo on CBS.
Even if you're not a fan of The Walking Dead (and I'm really not), you have to admit that these numbers are insane. In an age where more and more people are consuming television from a variety of different platforms on a delayed schedule, the fact that a basic cable show can pull in these kinds of numbers is staggering. Watch a sneak peek for next week's episode after the jump.

Washington Post – December 9, 1933
It was somewhat of an off night at Mons. Joe Turner's rassling circus at the Auditorium last night, the card not being particularly good and the cash customers seeming to sense the fact and so staying away in larger numbers. Only about 2,500 showed up. Continue reading

The Museum is now open. Your health and safety remains our top priority. Learn more.
Milwaukee, WI, January 26, 2009—The Milwaukee Art Museum has appointed Brady Roberts as Chief Curator, announced Museum Director Daniel Keegan today. Roberts will assume his position on March 2, 2009.
For all media inquiries please contact:
Elysia Borowy-Reeder
Senior Director of Communications
"The Museum is delighted to welcome Brady Roberts to lead its curatorial team," states Keegan. "He brings an exceptional depth of knowledge, scholarly expertise, and an impressive record of curatorial accomplishments particularly relevant to our strengths in post-war visual art. He has worked on several notable exhibitions and acquisitions related to artists represented in the Milwaukee Art Museum's Collection—Cornelia Parker, Sol LeWitt, Agnes Martin, Donald Judd, and Josiah McElheny, among others—and has cultivated throughout his career a passion for German Expressionism and Abstract Expressionism, which are also significant Collection strengths. We eagerly anticipate his contributions as the capable leader of our curatorial staff and artistic programs."
Roberts said, "Collection development and research are central to my approach, predominantly through the vehicle of collection-based exhibitions. I see a wealth of opportunities with the exceptional holdings at the Milwaukee Art Museum. I look forward to leading the Museum's excellent curatorial staff, working with its outstanding Collection, and earning the assistance of the Museum's outstanding support groups."
Roberts, who succeeds Joseph Ketner, most recently was the curator of a contemporary art space in Santa Fe, New Mexico, that represents artists from around the world. From 2001 to 2006 he served as curator of modern and contemporary art at the Phoenix Museum of Art. Before moving west, Roberts was the executive director of the Dubuque Museum of Art from 1997 to 1999, and the curator of collections and exhibitions of the Davenport Museum of Art (now the Figge Art Museum) from 1989 to 1997.
"Brady Roberts is a widely respected curator who is known for his scholarly record and for the ambitious nature of the projects he initiates," said Keegan. "He is committed to framing important art-historical questions with topical relevance, developing a strong interpretive point of view, and fostering new discoveries for new audiences and visitors." Chicago collector of contemporary art for over 50 years and Phoenix Art Museum board member Joel Bernstein states that "Brady is enthusiastic and very knowledgeable; he will organize shows that will make Milwaukee a force in the contemporary art world." Phoenix art collector Howard Hendler credits Roberts for inspiring him and his wife to donate major pieces of art to the Phoenix Art Museum's contemporary collection: "His actions not only completely changed the face of the Museum's collection but also put us in the position of having an extraordinary amount of personal satisfaction and pride in what we were able to help accomplish." Chairperson of the Phoenix Art Museum Ellen Katz says that Roberts "opened the eyes and minds of our members to new and exciting artists and works of art. He brought a truly international representation of global art to the valley of Phoenix."
As Chief Curator, Roberts will oversee the Museum's collections and exhibitions—including the research, cataloguing, care, display and interpretation of the artworks, as well as the acquisition of significant new works—while leading the curatorial staff of 25 departmental professionals.
In 1989 Roberts earned his Master of Arts in art history from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and completed his thesis, titled Willem de Kooning's Existential Aesthetics. He received his Bachelor of Arts in art history from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. He has curated a number of touring exhibitions with major scholarly catalogues, including Constructing New Berlin in 2006 and Grant Wood: An American Master Revealed in 1996.
Recent and Upcoming Changes to Milwaukee Art Museum Curatorial Department
Laurie Winters, curator of earlier European art and coordinating curator of the upcoming Jan Lievens exhibition, has been promoted to Director of Exhibitions, a new position at the Museum effective March 2. Winters, who specializes in earlier French and Central European painting, joined the Museum in 1997. In 2007, Winters was one of ten U.S. curators selected to participate in the inaugural year of the Center for Curatorial Leadership, a program at the Columbia Business School in New York that prepares top curators for positions in museum leadership.
"I'm delighted to be selected, and to have oversight of the Museum's exhibitions program," says Winters. "With its esteemed exhibition history, the Milwaukee Art Museum is known for its superb artistic program and talented staff. I am truly excited about the opportunity to expand my role at the Museum and to continue to bring world-class exhibitions to Milwaukee."
As Director of Exhibitions, Winters will be responsible for overseeing the conceptualization and implementation of the Museum's exhibitions and related programs. "It is crucial for the Museum to focus on its core mission of presenting extraordinary art and experiences to the community," says Director Dan Keegan. For this reason in particular, I am very pleased to recognize Laurie Winters' contribution and commitment to the Museum. This model of dedicating a position to exhibitions is becoming more prevalent among museums, and this particular position builds on Laurie's obvious strengths in exhibition development."
In coordination with the curatorial team and as a member of senior management, the Director of Exhibitions further serves to maintain and strengthen national and international networks and relationships, identifying important exhibition opportunities for the Museum. Newly appointed Chief Curator Brady Roberts says, "I am excited to be a part of a new curatorial leadership model, and I look forward to building a close partnership with Laurie and creating first-rate art experiences for my new community." Arthur K. Wheelock, Jr., curator of the Jan Lievens exhibition and curator of northern baroque painting at the National Gallery of Art, applauds the appointment: "Laurie brings both passion and professionalism to her work, and in doing so, she energizes both her collaborators and the public. I can't imagine anyone who would make a better Director of Exhibitions."
Winters has organized—often with international colleagues—a number of exhibitions that have ranked among the best-attended shows in the Museum's history. In 2000-2001, in conjunction with the opening of the Museum's new addition, she was responsible for the expansion and renovation of the European galleries. In 2002, Leonardo da Vinci and the Splendor of Poland was named one of the top five exhibitions of the year by Apollo magazine, and earned Winters Poland's Cavalier's Cross of the Order of Merit. Biedermeier: The Invention of Simplicity, which concluded its international tour to the Albertina in Vienna, the Deutsches Historisches Museum-Berlin, and the Musée du Louvre in Paris in January of 2008, has been recognized as a model of international collaboration. Additionally, the Biedermeier catalogue was named Book of the Year (2007) at the Vienna Art Fair.
Winters' appointment follows several additional promotions, as well as the recent addition of a new member to the team. In September of 2008, Lisa Hostetler became Curator of Photographs, Mary Weaver Chapin advanced to Associate Curator of Prints and Drawings, Catherine Sawinski was named Assistant Curator of Earlier European Art, and John McKinnon was promoted to Assistant Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art. As of January 13, 2009, Melissa Buchanan has joined the Museum as the Mae E. Demmer Assistant Curator of 20th-Century Design. Buchanan will be responsible for researching and presenting the Museum's significant collection of decorative arts from the twentieth century.
The Milwaukee Art Museum's far-reaching holdings include more than 20,000 works spanning antiquity to the present day. With a history dating back to 1888, the Museum houses a Collection with strengths in 19th- and 20th-century American and European art, contemporary art, American decorative arts, and folk and self-taught art. The Museum includes the Santiago Calatrava-designed Quadracci Pavilion, named by Time magazine "Best Design of 2001."

Dear New England
Dear New England,
Can I just say how lovely it is to come home from work and an annoying class to view this image:
I know I shouldn't be so giddy about it, but I thought that Maine and New Hampshire might sway the other way. I love us. Hopefully, we'll see a lot more blue before the night is over.
Politics in music
I was raised on a healthy diet of Car Talk, Sesame Street, and folk music as a child and its nice to see that some of my (and my Dad's) favorite performers are writing songs about what is going on right now. Tom Paxton has a great page here of free downloads including an update to LBJ Told the Nation. Christine Lavin has had a few really good songs, including "We Are the True Americans" and "Dear Dan", both of which I love.
Should be interesting to see what new political songs we come up with after tomorrow. Almost every person I talked to at work today had either voted or was going home tonight and will vote tomorrow. I met a lovely couple from Montana who told me how their local political landscape is changing to more purple/blue than red and two ladies from Philly who were looking forward to being in NH for the election tomorrow. It is going to be an interesting day.
Ass-hattery at its finest
You know, John…I liked you at one point. I am a Massachusetts born, sometimes catching on fire, liberal. My parents are liberal…my grandparents are liberal (they proudly paid their taxes to support the local schools even though they have no children in the system anymore and never sent their children to a public school. Its just what you do.)
But, AIR QUOTATIONS about my health? You, sir, are an ass hat at best. What if your daughters needed to have an abortion because delivering would kill them? What would you do then? Would you, like your running mate, "counsel life"? Because if you do, I feel like moving to Canada. They have cute accents, funny money, and good chocolate. You, have no freakin clue.

In the movie "Mean Girls," Cady — played by Lindsay Lohan — eats alone in a bathroom stall on her first day of high school because she has no one to eat with. When I was in high school, if I didn't have anyone to eat lunch with, I would skip the meal. Though I considered myself to be fiercely independent — and in many ways, I was — I could never muster the courage to eat alone.
When I started college, my reluctance to eat alone got stronger. I didn't want to be the freshman in the dining hall who was eating alone because she hadn't made any friends. I planned classes around meals and meals around people. I'd eat with people who I didn't know very well just to have some company, and I would sleep late in order to skip breakfast. What I didn't understand was that I was afraid of being alone with my thoughts, and this fear was manifesting itself through my eating habits. It can manifest in other ways for other people: some need to check Facebook and Instagram compulsively, while others just want to watch Netflix all day. A study published in Science Magazine found that people would rather give themselves electric shocks than be left alone with their thoughts. But I've now come to realize that college has proven to be an amazing place to embrace being alone.
It's become a lot easier to be lonely in college. With the advent of social media, staying in good contact with high school friends is now easier than ever. Particularly for freshmen, it can seem like these high school friendships are better and more important than any potentially new friendships. We often feel closer to these friends because we've known them longer, and new college friendships can pale in comparison. College is also the first time away from home for many, which can be overwhelming and isolating. This emphasis on old friendships can make building new ones difficult or undesirable.
In reality, the experience of solitude is only a big deal if we're unable to be happy alone. When I ate with people I wasn't friends with just to avoid eating by myself, I was basically telling myself that I needed their company more than my own. But if I didn't like hanging out with myself, or thinking my own thoughts, how could I expect anyone else to like hanging out with me? How could I expect to make any friends?
That realization was why I started making time for just myself: "Me Time." At Brown, it can be easy to create an insanely busy schedule, and many of us often do. As if class, homework, midterms and other projects aren't enough, we also have extracurricular activities and jobs. To top it all off, we sometimes feel a pressure to spend time with friends and go out to have typical "college" fun. But there is value in solitude, and we shouldn't try to hide from it. The ability to savor alone time has been linked to increased happiness, and those who spend time alone experience less depression. Spending time alone is also extremely important for personal growth. Emotional development expert Reed W. Larson found that adolescents "who spent an intermediate amount of time alone were better adjusted than those who spent little or a great deal of time alone."
Of course, "Me Time" can come in many forms. The key is that "Me Time" must be purposely created and deliberately pursued. Whatever activities you choose to pursue in your free time should be relaxing, invigorating and purely voluntary. The problem arises only when we feel the stigma of solitude, because we're trained to think that solitude is a symptom of social ineptitude or personal weakness. We can't give in to this unreasonable expectation — especially at the expense of our own well-being.
To anyone who is feeling overwhelmed, exhausted or in need of a change of pace, I recommend scheduling some "Me Time." It's not embarrassing — in truth, no one cares at all about seeing you do something alone. My personal favorite form of "Me Time" comes from preparing a full meal, sitting down and eating it alone. It's amazing to be able to do this after years of struggling with it. What's more amazing is knowing that I could do anything that I used to do with someone else completely alone. "Me Time" brings me joy and peace, and a chance to interact with someone I really love: myself.

New Delhi: A number of Internet service providers had blocked access to popular video sharing websites such as Vimeo and DailyMotion as well as major torrent search services including The Piratebay and isoHunt apparantly following a court order obtained by Copyright Labs, a Chennai-based online anti piracy service provider.
According to Copyright Labs, ISPs were asked to block specific websites but in a repeat of earlier instances they ended up blocking entire domains.
In retaliation Anonymous's opIndia hackers targeted the websites of the Congress Party (aicc.org.in), Supreme Court (supremecourtofindia.nic.in) as well as that of Copyright Labs (copyrightlabs.in).
"Namaste #India, your time has come to trash the current government and install a new one. Good luck. | #SaveTPB #Anonymous #Censorship," @Anon_Central tweeted.
Even the Department of Telecommunications (dot.gov.in) website was on the hackers' hit-list but it seems to have fended off the attack.
Soon after news of the block spread, social networks were abuzz with tricks and tips on how to bypass the ban.
Namaste India – We see you've met some of the #Anonymous battle fleet's infamous cannon fire. Tsk tsk for censoring #TPB & others. #OpIndia

The differences from the rest of Thailand is not big. The food is a bit more spicy, and a bit more expensive. If you are new to Thailand, ask not to add hot peppers and hot sauces (My pet). On average, from street vendors, you can eat at 1,1 - 1,3 USD = 35 - 40 THB per dish.
One of the options of good, culturally and inexpensive meal in Pattaya and Thailand are the food courts at various supermarkets. Food vendors gathered in one hall, menu with price tags, photographs of dishes. Prices range 0,97 - 1,93 USD = 30 - 60 THB for a relatively standard dishes, and easily reach 6,4 USD = 200 THB for european cuisine in expensive food courts designed for tourists.

Interesting details on the Historical Background Of Education In Tanzania. Before the arrival of the Europeans to Africa, we have always lived by our own culture and ways of life though we didn't know what a formal education looks like, that doesn't mean we didn't have our own way of getting things done. For example, if the white man used pot and stove to make meals, Africans created fire from stone and resort to roasting and other means of getting their meals cooked. Now before the arrival of the colonial masters, Africa had her own way of life from local skills, to the culture which is a way of life to moral values, social protection and much more and these traits were passed from generations to generations until the arrival of the masters. Now after the arrival of colonial masters, all that changed Historical Background Of Education In Tanzania. Focusing on Tanzania { history and development of education in Tanzania }
Shedding some light on how it all began. Many foreigners came with there own ways of life ranging from the Arabs being the first to the Portuguese, Germans and then the British rulers. Well, let's begin by telling you from the arrivals of the Europeans to the introduction of the first educational system in a country today called Tanzania which was formally Tanganyika.
Many years ago in Tanganyika {Tanzania}, the Germans came and took control of the country and in the year 1893, the first government schools were commissioned by the Germans to educate the people and bridge communication gap and other vices, but then the education system was informal and taught by elders in the community which entails good citizenship and life skills. But then in the year 1914, tragedy broke out – War started between the Germans and British troops. Unfortunately, the German troops were defeated and Great Britain took over control and this had an effect on the educational system because a new government comes with a new plan in every aspect including the educational policy.
The war missionary and the government education system resumed and the first director of the education was appointed in 1920 and throughout the next 40 years, local powers were mandated to oversee the provision of the education.
Then in the year 1964 Tanganyika and Zanzibar became the united republic of Tanzania after gaining its independence from the British rulers and the new official language became Kiswahili. But at this time, private primary schools were not permitted only the government schools not until the 70s and a universal educational programme was introduced. At the time, there were no school fees thus increasing the numbers of enrolment, then in the 80s again, fees for primary and secondary schools were reintroduced and in effect, it affected the number of people getting education as many dropped because then, they didn't see the need for an education coupled with poverty and non enlightenment.
Still on Historical Background Of Education In Tanzania …
Over the years from the mid-90s, numerous development plans and programs came into existence to help provide formal education for Tanzania children all thanks to a caring government.
Here are some highlight of these programs and they are listed below
- Education sector development program
- Primary education development plan
- Secondary education development plan
- Government expansion of secondary schools under SEDP
But currently, as we speak, the educational system dating from the onset has improved so tremendously over the years even though it still has a long way to go but a move is better than no step taken. Compared to many other African nations they are still on the low range in the aspect of Education. It sad to see that Africa is really lagging behind in so many key areas, not only in education.
Looking at education today in Tanzania and judging from the effort of it government so far, I would say that most education ends for many children after there primary education and only three out of five Tanzanian adolescent .even 52 percent of the eligible populations are enrolled in lower secondary education and fewer complete secondary education which isn't encouraging for a growing nation having such ratio. Then to top it all, in most cases, formal vocational training is unavailable to many of the children who want it or have the passion for it.
The Tanzanian educational system is based on the system of 7-4-2-3 which mean 7 years of primary education followed by 4 years of secondary education, then 2 years more of advanced level (A level) exams in 9 subject which also includes general studies too.
But we wouldn't deny the fact that the Tanzanian government's commitment to education for all as an integral part of its socio-economic development started shortly after they had gotten their independence. But before independence, education access was restricted unlike now. They have had support from the world bank, international monetary fund, and a few other nation donors but in the early 1980s crisis like oil crisis, low coffee prices,drought,war with Uganda had created a major stumbling block and there relationship with this organizations .this then saw a huge reduction in resources that lead to a reversal of progress made in the quality of education at all levels ..even during the subsequent progress of the economic reform, efforts of the late 80s and 90s were stagnating including progress towards UPE..
The government's national strategy for growth and reduction of poverty (2005) included a focus on education as a part of it social well being and quality of life. So in conclusion and from the above, it is clear that the government of Tanzania means well for it people and takes education as a priority but they are faced with many challenges.
A nation that embraces education to it fullest becomes a fully independent nation and can stay strong and become less dependent on some foreign countries so the government should see the need to make education a priority to all.

A lawyer boarded an airplane in New Orleans with a box of frozen crabs and asked a blonde stewardess to take care of them for him.
She took the box and promised to put it in the crew's refrigerator.
He advised her that he was holding her personally responsible for them staying frozen mentioning in an arrogant manner that he was a lawyer, and threatened what would happen to her if she let them thaw out.
Shortly before landing in New York, she used the intercom to announce to the entire cabin, "Would the lawyer who gave me the crabs in New Orleans please raise your hand?"
Not one hand went up … so she took them home and ate them.
There are two lessons here:
1. Lawyers aren't as smart as they think they are.
2. Blondes aren't as dumb as most folks think.

This is so stupid it almost makes sense!
Dump the male flight attendants. No one wanted them in the first place….
Replace all the female flight attendants with good-looking strippers! What the hell — they don't even serve food anymore, so what's the loss?
The strippers would at least triple the alcohol sales and get a 'party atmosphere' going in the cabin. And, of course, every businessman in this country would start flying again, hoping to see naked women.
Because of the tips, female flight attendants wouldn't need a salary, thus saving even more money. I suspect tips would be so good that we could charge the women for working the plane and have them kick back 20% of the tips, including lap dances and 'special services.'
Muslims would be afraid to get on the planes for fear of seeing naked women. Hijackings would come to a screeching halt, and the airline industry would see record revenues.
This is definitely a win-win situation if we handle it right — a golden opportunity to turn a liability into an asset.
Why didn't Harper or Obama think of this?
Why do I still have to do everything myself?

war is a continuation of project management by other means
Saturday, March 13 2004
"Everything is very simple in war, but the simplest thing is difficult. These difficulties accumulate and produce a friction, which no man can imagine exactly who has not seen war. Suppose now a traveller, who, towards evening, expects to accomplish the two stages at the end of his day's journey, four or five leagues, with post horses, on the high road—it is nothing. He arrives now at the last station but one, finds no horses, or very bad ones; then a hilly country, bad roads; it is a dark night, and he is glad when, after a great deal of trouble, he reaches the next station, and finds there some miserable accommodation. So in war, through the influence of an infinity of petty circumstances, which cannot properly be described on paper, things disappoint us, and we fall short of the mark."
Clausewitz, On War.
And that was my day.

Developing an App Without This Knowledge Can Be Futile
Do you think that apps make a smartphone smart? If your response to the above questions is in affirmation, we think alike. I believe that smartphones are capable of doing a lot but this capability is courtesy apps. Everything that creators boast about can be attributed to the Software that make it happen and the continuous evolution that keeps it exciting.
If you are an app developer, you should applaud yourself for creating apps that matter and apps that make a difference in the day to day functioning. However, the current times require knowledge that is exceptional enough to give you an edge above other developers.
Work Smart and Not Hard
This is a common saying. If you are a developer, give it a little thought. Enterprise mobile apps development involves skills like proficiency in a programming language, familiarity with development platforms, IDEs, etc. And, these are great skills to possess. But, there are Software that can aide you in developing an app in a much faster way and almost flawless coding for native and hybrid apps. Using such Software can make a hell lot of a difference in the time and effort that you put to create an app.
Same Software can help you integrate third party APIs and develop a fully functional app which can tested on the same Software using simulations for how the app will work on different devices. For an enterprise mobile app, investment in these commercial Software can prove to be beneficial because it is a single work arena for developers and testers. You can train your team to be versatile and save a lot of money by not having to hire individuals with specific knowledge.
Try the Creative Inverse Approach
App development has a fixed lifecycle. Usually starting with designing and ending with testing. A creative approach to problem solving is what can make you different than other app developers. This means that you can get innovative. Instead of starting with designing, how about starting with testing. You would be wondering how that is possible.
Until and unless, you are creating enterprise mobile apps that is one of its kinds, you always have a lot of existing prototypes or examples of the app that you are wanting to create. So, how about testing (analyzing) those apps for loopholes that can help you create an app that bridges the gap. This approach starts with testing and ends with testing. Thus, giving you a clear picture of what is expected and what is achieved.
The success parameter of an app does not only rely on the number of downloads. In a superficial scenario, may a million downloads and then a million uninstalls get you back to square one. What you need is to dedicate time and invest money in creating an app that is useful to people and gives monetary benefit to you or your organization. This requires you to get smart and creative to sustain the competition that is only getting tougher by the day.

Guest post written by Kelsey Simmons
My friend Beth has such a particular style that sometimes it can be really tough to find something that will exactly fit her tastes. She's always been that way, so it's a little tougher to find something that I know she'll actually like. This year I decided that it would be fun to just go ahead and try to make something that I knew that she would love.
I spent a while browsing all kinds of different DIY things that I could make for her and after all of that I decided to go with a bag. When I was looking online for DIY bag ideas I saw something on how to Get debt help and had to click on it. I have debt and would love to be rid of it, so I knew that would be perfect for this.
There was this really awesome DIY painted bag tutorial that I found and I knew that I had to absolutely make for her. So I'm working on that and hoping that it turns out looking half as cool as it did in the tutorial.

Faulty roof flap keeps Martin Truex Jr. from Daytona 500 qualifications
Martin Truex Jr. didn't take the track in qualifications for the 2016 Daytona 500. But that doesn't mean he won't race on Feb. 21.
Unable to repair a roof flap problem in time for Sunday's qualifications at Daytona, Truex missed his opportunity to turn laps in time trials against 43 other drivers.
MORE: Expect crashes galore in Daytona 500 | Speedweeks schedule
Watch: Roof-flap issue for @MartinTruex_Jr & @FR78Racing . Car has been pushed back, they will not qualify today. https://t.co/gGXUCq9gk4— FOX SPORTS: NASCAR (@NASCARONFOX) February 14, 2016
Chase Elliott and Matt Kenseth were Sunday's fastest qualifiers.
NASCAR also flagged the cars of Kevin Harvick and Brian Vickers — both drivers for Stewart-Haas Racing. Reports said inspectors found irregularities with track bars. As a result, they will start from the rear of the field on Thursday.
NASCAR likely will announce fines against the three teams on Feb. 23, the Tuesday after the 500. It could also issue points penalties.
Announcing the penalties, NASCAR said officials found the flap problem on pit road. Furniture Row crewmen were unable to make repairs in the mandated limit of five minutes, and Truex was prevented from running on Sunday.
Because of the peculiar rules at Daytona, as well as NASCAR's new charter system, Truex has no fear of missing the Spring Cup season's first race. What was made certain on Sunday was that Truex won't start the Daytona 500 on the front row. And, Truex will make Furniture Row Racing's debut in a Toyota from the rear of the field on Thursday during the Can-Am Duels.

The team switched to Toyota this offseason and is allied with Joe Gibbs Racing. It previously ran a Chevy. Truex and team reached the 2015 championship race, finishing fourth in the Chase for the Sprint Cup.

Truex Jr.'s explanation: "I don't know what the hell happened? I was sitting in the car and they told me to get out. It makes no sense."— Jordan Bianchi (@Jordan_Bianchi) February 14, 2016
"They didn't like the way it landed when it dropped back down," Truex crew chief Cole Pearn said, via Motorsport.com. "I don't know why it had to be rolled off pit road. I'm not sure what the problem was. It could have been easily fixed.
"Either way, they decided to put it on the five-minute clock when we were down there at the end. I don't know why they made us come back here (in the garage) because there was no way we would get back here then get back there (on pit road) in time."
In addition to setting the two fastest qualifiers for the Daytona 500, Sunday's tests set the lineups for the 60-lap Duels. Thursday's first race begins at 7 p.m. ET, the second at 9. Both races will be carried on Fox Sports 1.
Coverage of the Daytona 500 is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET on Feb. 21.

How do you engender loyalty and team spirit among employees who rarely see the inside of your company? Though it's not an uncommon quandary for trucking companies like Bob Sturgeon's Barr-Nunn Transportation, in Granger, Iowa, it's a growing concern of businesses whose employees telecommute, work part-time, or take family leave.
"In our industry there's a division between drivers and the people in the office," says Sturgeon. Sturgeon hoped that better communication would go a long way toward diminishing the psychological rift, and he wanted to decrease turnover, which, at 55% in 1993, cost the company about $5,000 a driver. So two years ago Sturgeon and vice-president of sales and marketing Mike Johns started a monthly company newspaper called Manifest. It features messages from Sturgeon about the company's mission and values, as well as safety tips, articles about new employees, and coverage of company policy. "We're trying to show them that someone back here is concerned about their welfare," says Johns. "It's a team-building effort."
Every month, the company also gives its drivers four-hour cassette tapes with industry news, country music, interviews, and company information that might include birthday announcements or discussions of the advantages of contributing to the company's 401(k) plan. The two programs cost Barr-Nunn about $3,000 a month, but Sturgeon thinks that combined with other efforts to improve life for drivers, they have definitely had an impact on the bottom line: turnover was down to 35% last year.

PDD Pass- Relevant Reference Material
Just took and PASSED 5.0 PDD.
Here is a list of the materials I used to study, what I thought was important and relevant, and some tips:
-Architect Exam Prep: Great for general overview of all topics; generally skims the surface of everything on the exam. If there were topics I wasn't super confident on I referenced other materials.
-ARE5 Ballast Review Manual: Super dense, but good content. Personally, I felt like it was WAY over the top on formulas and math. The exams aren's so much about memorizing formulas, but more so about knowing how to get to the answer. Example: Ballast asks you to calculate the size of a beam using extensive formulas - for the exam you need to know generally how far a specific material can span to determine the proper material and system.
-ARE5 Ballast Practice Problems & Practice Exam: Good for quizzing and practicing (duh).
-Ching Building Construction Illustrated: This was the most directly related study material. A lot of this exam is reading and evaluating wall sections, and Ching does a great job breaking down wall assemblies for all materials. Also, Ching does into a lot more detail on material properties which I found useful during the exam. I read the majority of this book but at a minimum skimmed the entire book.
-The Architect's Studio Companion: If you have studied for PPD, a lot of the material to study is the same from this book, but I re-read it anyway (I had a large gap in-between taking those two exams). The most important thing to study from this book is occupancy classifications and building type. Where on PPD and PA you might be given a chart to assist in occupancy classification, you're on your own for this exam. Same goes for building type.
-Designer Hacks: They do a great job on this site of phrasing questions similar to how they are on the exam. Lots of content on the quizzes too. I did the 10 and 25 question quizzes probably 20 times each and got new questions every time. When I started to get repeats I took the times 120 question test and made me feel confident. (They even have a disclaimer that if you pass their times test and don't pass the exam they will refund you).
Overall, this exam was daunting and long and mean, BUT it is also a very mental exam. Just try to remember that common sense will get you really far.

Congrats! PDD is no joke!
I am currently in the process of studying for PPD and PDD. I have PPD next week. I am re-reading ASC and have gone through all of the main NCARB references, as well as 3rd party materials ( Hyperfine, Designer Hacks and AEP). Do you have any advice on PPD?
Again, congrats!
Thank you

Laura Bush biographer Ronald / FRI 1-21-11 / Bygone NYC punk club / Appassionata von Climax / Writer known as Old Possum / Epoch bats first appeared
Friday, January 21, 2011
Constructor: Pete Mitchell
Relative difficulty: Medium
THEME: none
Word of the Day: CBGB (CLUE) —
CBGB (Country, Blue Grass, and Blues) was a music club at 315 Bowery at Bleecker Street in the borough of Manhattan in New York City. // Founded by Hilly Kristal in 1973, it was originally intended to feature its namesake musical styles, but became a forum for American punk and New Wave bands like Ramones, Misfits, Television, the Patti Smith Group, Mink DeVille, The Dead Boys, The Dictators, The Fleshtones, The Voidoids, The Cramps, Blondie, The Shirts, and Talking Heads. In later years, it would mainly become known for Hardcore punk with bands such as Agnostic Front, Bad Brains, Murphy's Law, Cro-Mags, Warzone, Gorilla Biscuits, Sick of It All, and Youth of Today performing there. [...] The club closed in October 2006. The final concert was performed by Patti Smith on October 15. CBGB Fashions (the CBGB store, wholesale department, and online store) stayed open until October 31 at 315 Bowery. On November 1, 2006, CBGB Fashions moved to 19-23 St. Mark's Place, but it subsequently closed in the summer of 2008. (wikipedia)
32A: Company with a spokesduck (Aflac) - annoying. I feel sad to have lived long enough to see "spokesduck" enter the language.Somehow I don't feel the same annoyance today, perhaps because it's much harder to get mad at SPOKESDUCK (1A: Aflac ad figure, facetiously) when it's livening up your grid by comically sitting on the head of TINA LOUISE (15A: She played Appassionata von Climax in Broadway's "Li'l Abner"). I liked the run-down quality of the symmetrical answers FIXER-UPPER (36A: Homebuyer's "bargain") and BAD HAIR DAY (42A: Result of a permanent failure? — great clue). All in all, I just liked it. Fine Friday fare.
[I have no frame of reference for this]
There were several things I didn't know in this puzzle, some of them dangerously close to one another. Let's start with CSTAR (9D: ___ Optics (telescope maker)) and KESSLER (10D: Laura Bush biographer Ronald). The former I pieced together from the fact that a C-STAR is a thing, and CSTAR sounds like "See Star," which is what you might do with a telescope. No way to get KESSLER except through crosses, which were all fair. Not sure I've heard EFAX said out loud or seen it in print, but I can at last imagine what it is (37D: High-tech transmission). I thought maybe Byron wrote "MAUD" (wrong—that's Tennyson), and if I even knew "LARA," I forgot (63A: Byron poem). A partial from a Thomas the Tank Engine story!? That's nuts, but kind of inspired (57A: "___ on the Line" (Thomas the Tank Engine story) ("A COW"). Words like EOCENE (30A: Epoch when bats first appeared) and CHELA I know from puzzles gone by. Ditto UIES, which I had the good sense to change from UEYS fairly early on (8D: They're hung across roads).
- 17A: Chinchillas and boas, e.g. (EXOTIC PETS) — a great answer. My wife had occasion to refer to chinchillas earlier this evening. I forget why. Oh, her student is interning in a kindergarten classroom, and got superexcited because it was Zoomobile day!
- 19A: "The Gene Krupa Story" title role player (MINEO) — Got this easily, which is weird, as I've never seen the movie. He's pretty common in crosswords (see also SELA, 60D: One of Swoosie's co-stars on "Sisters"). Plus, I probably had the -EO before even seeing the clue.
- 27A: Ace pitcher's reward? (SALE) — someone else out there had to have had SAVE, right? This made 28D: Many an interrogee *very* interesting. "VIAL? What the...?"
- 5D: Writer known as Old Possum, and his family (ELIOTS) — as in T.S. Gimme. "Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats" was the basis for ... "Cats!"
- 54D: Wankel engine part (ROTOR) — wanted MOTOR, but that didn't really seem like a "part"...
- 56D: Secretaries' charges: Abbr. (DEPTS.) — oh, "Secretary" as in "Secretary of the Interior." Gotcha. I had APPTS. here at first.

In the last few sessions I have mentioned that i had been in contact with St Stephens shopping centre in Hull with intentions of securing the group with a opportunity to showcase our client project's current stage before our hand ins. After several days of contact and acquiring the necessary documentation (public liability insurance) from Hull College I had us booked in for Friday 15th May from 10am-4pm. With this secured the client session before the showcase as team leaders we sat down and emphasised focus on promotional materials, this had been tasked a few weeks before hand but little progress had been made to our understanding. When it came to Thursday the day before the showcase and no evidence of a leaflet or any other promotional materials had been presented we took to informing the tutors on our current issue, to resolve this Gareth stepped in to help us design and piece together some promotional materials.
To assist Gareth I went through any files i had that i thought could show the public our design process over the year of work. This included Concept art, renders, screenshots of 3ds max progress, sketches, research wall photos, designs, ideas, group meeting photography, and other helpful images. After collecting work of my own I had asked other students in the studio if there was anything of use they feel they could put into these folders allowing Gareth to have a pick of the bunch. James put in some concepts/research and Viktor put in some step to step and final production of sculpts and his bank. Phil also gave Gareth some seperate renders which was used for the leaflet designs including the 3D version of my signpost logo sketch.
The logo sketches I did on Tuesday, Viktor had already done a logo but there was some debate on the design of it due to the inclusion of Hull and crowns which may spark some currently unknown debate from any public members. Due to this some sketches of logo ideas using reference from crests, shields, 60s logos and items in the street I did just to give us a wider range of choice in the logo field. Here are my results:
Many people liked the signpost logo with the Old Town Memories font in the style of the street signs currently in the street which was there in the 60's so it had accuracy and relevance to the project. To try get different perspectives and cleaner visuals of the logo Phil decided to take the basic street signpost logo into 3DSMax and I took the street signpost with the lantern into 3dsmax.
Here are my renders of the 3D logo:
With this i felt that it was decent but the logo design in realistic 3D didnt work for me it just didn't feel right. The next step for this would be to take it into Photoshop and overlay correct type of the street font then add colour, or texture it to create the same effect. With limited time I left this to Phil to progress on his logo whilst I contacted St Stephens about transport of the television to our display area and sign in requirements for the group. Due to St Stephens fantastic customer service the reply was very swift and we cleared any possible issues for the showcase.
Now with the showcase closing in its important that we consider a few things to do with professionalism whilst displaying to the public:
Information- give informative replies to any questions in a polite and controlled manner. Do not over explain any technical terms to the project but also dont be condescending towards the public treating them like they know nothing. for example instead of talking in depth about the process of 3D modelling and using modifiers to shape a certain complex shape which will be later unwrapped using the uvw unwrap to take into Photoshop, ndo2 or other programs, simply say to create the models of the buildings and assets you see we use 3d software which allows us to place them in the game world (engine) as you see them now. Its not over informative but its also not too complex just to the point and well explained. Let them know that this is a working progress and to keep an eye out by taking a leaflet as we will be doing the final product display in September.
Presentation- This can fall under a few categories:
- Clothing- Dress smart or smart casual, you want to be approachable and presentable. We are representing our course and college so it is important to give ourselves and them a good image. My personal attire was a suit blazer with polo and jeans.
- Layout- The project is in the middle of a shopping centre with many people walking by to draw them in we need to have a well laid out station with regards to promotional materials and availability for them to be seen and picked up easily. The layout I placed 3 leaflets overlapping each other to add a personal touch to the space and then we had plastic holders for the leaflets placed on the stand in front of the TV but not obstructing the view of the video.
- Video- The main piece we want the public to see is the video which is a fly through of the project. With help from Gareth he pieced together using our content and previous video a professional informative video for the public to view.
- Presence- Using our shifts each person had to man the project with another colleague, our time around the project was there to draw people in. But in the times where little interest was given we must ensure that we do not obstruct either the view of the project stall or the public's path. The general position of one man at each side of the TV was assumed by most groups. Another thing with this is posture, to be standing upright and approachable, this means no slouching or leaning or hands in pockets as it just doesn't portray the right image. We need to look as enthusiastic and professional as possible around the project so that the public might be interesting in taking a look.
Teamwork- Due to our idea to have shifts for teams of 2 at each interval we need to communicate between each other on overlaps. This means when handing over to another group to inform them of any interests in your shift, what to do with the documentations and forms if somebody wants them, handing out of leaflets, and any issues that have been raised throughout the day. If any problems arise the scheduled rota's for each team was on the sheet along with contact details so people could come help.
There are other things but them 3 I believe are key for us to be successful at our first public showcase of the project.
On the day of the showcase Myself and Phil was first on the list, due to my contact with St Stephens I was in charge of signing us in, finding out our location and then setting up (Phil set up too). Also I made sure that as its a public place and St Stephens usually prohibit photography in the centre that we was alright to take photos of us and our stall to add visuals to our evaluations of the day, this was confirmed fine by the staff. Once set up it was around 9pm but the requirement was to be set up by 10pm so earlier we set up the better and we could get started. Barrie also brought us down some freshly cut doorstops as we had a wheeled TV stand and St Stephens is on a slope, so just for safety precautions we felt this was a necessary to have done.
Immediately we could notice that earlier on we might not have much interest, people was on the way to work, getting breakfast and so on. There was time for a quick glance but not many stopped to talk to us, this we felt was natural with it being earlier on and expectations for more viewers would come later on in the day dinner time onwards. Our people skills generally improved over the time as first we didn't want to bother anyone as we personally know how frustrating it is when your going somewhere and people try stop you in the street, but we realised this is for the project so anyone slightly tempted is a bonus as then the public can give us their thoughts. Yet despite rejection and disinterest from people walking on past we needed to show our professionalism by keeping a calm level head about it all to try get others in.
I had an idea to employ Skinner's operant conditioning into our showcase, i went to Tesco and purchased some sweets to place behind the promotional material, if the public came and talked to us or viewed the project they would be offered a sweet as positive reinforcement for supporting our work. Just a little touch but employing game theory into our client showcase was an interesting method to test.
In my first shift with Phil we had 9 people come see us 6 being people from the course but still wanting to know how its all going and what we have done. One of the other 3 was a lady from Historic England and she was extremely interested in the project as it was quite convenient she had just come from a meeting about heritage projects and just so happened to run into us which was great. After explaining our work we exchanged details for contact for further information and a potential future client, she mentioned about our impressive 3D work and how they could use it for 3D visuals of building design planning before the real builds. This was really great for us as we sold the project so well to her Stephen was also with us as it was the beginning of his shift and helped explain everything to her. She walked away impressed and enthusiastic which gave us a great confidence boost and vibe about the work and the benefits of the public showcase.
After our shift the only issue that was raised was from Abbiella, upon coming to check up on the group see how things were going and give a bit of advice she had been told by the previous group not to take any photographs at all. After visiting the staff as i said before this was cleared up and use of photos was perfectly alright for our own personal use. With me previously posting an image to Facebook to let my friends and family know of our presence in the shopping centre I decided to try take it to the next level. Not many of the leaflets had been taken which suggested at nearly 3pm loads of people hadn't come and spoke to the other groups. With that in mind we have them as hand outs, so I decided to go into GAME to ask if I could leave a couple on the counter to get people to maybe notice we are games designers and not a charity like most of the other stalls. GAME kindly accepted to leave them there and actually offered to tweet that we was there as well, which was brilliant and also a shame as I had only thought of doing it 1 hour before we packed up. But we know for next time that potential nearby stores might be worth placing a few temporary promotional materials in just to try attract anyone who may have missed it. With 1 hour left James decided to stay behind after his shift into mine and Phil's second shift to help out, with the extra man we sent James to the front of St Stephens with the majority of the remainder of the promotional material to hand out to passing people informing them of who we are. This attracted a few in but with saying the final showcase was in September maybe people wasn't as interested until the final product. Nevertheless personally as the day went on confidence grew and more ways for developed to try bring people in which we can take into any future showcases of the project.
It was time to pack everything up so Paul came down prior to 4pm to check up on us, then Me, Phil and Paul packed all the equipment away and put the TV back in Paul's car to be taken back to the studio. With the day coming to an end I decided to go thank the St Stephens staff for all there help with our showcase in the day and i also sent them an email when i got home to once again thank them and notify them on how this has benefited us as students. I will also type up an email to John Netherwood sometime next week to thank him for allowing us the use of the TV and stand for the project.
To evaluate the day I have to say that as a team I believe we did a great job in all professional aspects especially presentation. The best thing we can do from St Stephens is to treat it as a stepping stone, for the next showcases we will have further progress in the project, better promotional material, better people skills through the experience and understanding of our surroundings. The day itself is just the first in a run in to the final showcase on September, but the more we can do and practice then the more effective and professional we will be when it comes to that stage. Allowing the public to see the project at its current stage which we was hoping to be alot further and still see the amazement of how we do what we do and praise for our work is a real boost for us to push this as much as possible into September to really impress people, hopefully anyone who obtained a leaflet or information from us will see us again on our next showcases to see the progression and keep an interest in our work. We also need to set up at least a blog or a official website as people did ask for this as none of the online presence was on the leaflets which was a mistake on our behalf only contact information, so we could only direct them to Facebook, Twitter or YouTube which honestly haven't been used to the full potential so for future we need a working website.
What we hope to have for next time or prospect centre when that is confirmed is the interactivity side of the project fully underway, we have 3 TV's at our disposal so the set up with one of the professional video fly through we had in St Stephens, then another similar style to where we are now and then the interactive version would be a great way to display our work. On the day we felt that from our experience with "Rush n Crush" that me and Phil noticed people were more inclined to pick up and play rather than watch, yet that might not be everyone's preference so different set ups one being more visual and informative and the other playable would attract a wider audience.
Here are all the images from the day that I took including images of other groups if they requested it and the leaflet designs on close up:
As for the sweet and employing operant conditioning, not everyone wanted one but they seemed pleased to have the offer there. Overall a very good day and I would like to congratulate the team for all their efforts for people who attended hopefully we can take this into future showcases.
Here is the video fly through that we displayed to the public in St Stephens:
With time now before the next one we can edit this version that Gareth pieced together watch it make notes of what works and what doesn't to improve on what we already have.
