Nandos Wednesbury
A newly developed Nandos was designed by architecture and interiors firm: Moreno:Masey. The concept for this project was to keep visibility through out the restaurant, as this was an important aspect. The client fell in love with our terracotta tiles as soon as they came across them. The geometry and the warm colours, were perfect for this client. The site consisted of a lot of glazing and was one of the challenges as they wanted to create these secluded areas within this space, but also allowing for undisturbed vision through out. We supplied our Terracotta screens in a warming hue of yellow, to create the secluded areas. The overall design for this project is eye catching, yet welcoming.
For more information about this project please feel free to contact us.

VIRGINIA -- Who says superheroes aren't real?
Wonder Woman herself came to visit hospitalized children at Inova Health in Northern Virginia last week, bringing joy and excitement.
Actress Gal Gadot, who plays the titular character in the first movie and now its sequel, visited the kids on Friday.
RELATED: Wonder Woman 2 films in Georgetown
Kelly Sahady of Sterling, Va. is the mother to one of the kids who got a surprise visit. While dressed in full custome, Gadot held and kissed Sahady's daughter, Karalyne. The 7-month-old is fighting an aggressive form of Pediatric Cancer called Acute Myeloid Leukemia.
"She was diagnosed at two months old and for the last five months, we have given up our other kids to other family, and we haven't been able to be with them," Sahady said. "We spend three to four weeks in the hospital each time with a break in between each cycle of treatment."
This hardship has become the Sahady's new normal, but seeing Wonder Woman was a fun break.
"I was in the room and I was talking to one of the doctors with my daughter in the middle of getting an IV antibiotic treatment and in walks Wonder Woman, fully costumed," said Sahady.
She texted her husband, "OMG Wonder Woman was in here just holding Karalyne,' and he was like, 'Oh my gosh! I can't believe I missed it!' You know, sometimes they have people come through but it's never actually it's never actually the real celebrity," Sahady said.
This was a magical moment the Sahady family will never forget.
"After all this time being in there for so long, it was a real treat to have this happen," said Sahady, "Thank you. Thank you for taking the time out of your day to do this. You know we're fans for life now."
Even the doctors and staff members were excited to see the superhero.
"You are a true Wonder Woman," Dr. Lucas Collazo said in a Tweet over Gadot with hospital staff.
Wonder Woman 1984 has been sighted filming in various locations around D.C. in the past few weeks.
Fans have spotted Gadot and notable transformations of popular areas.
In Georgetown, the iconic Commander Salamander store was used for a few days of filming.
Roads are closed Sunday into Monday in areas around McPherson Square for filming – though it isn't clear if Wonder Woman is being filmed. But, one can only hope to get a sighting of the Wonder Woman herself.

The Lion King, Gazelle National Tour at Bass Concert Hall, University of Texas, January 16 - February 10, 2013
by Michael Meigs
The Gazelle touring company of Disney's The Lion King has settled into the cavernous Bass Concert Hall at the University of Texas. The place was filled for the official opening, and the crowd wasn't disappointed. This imaginative spectacle delighted us all with its puppetry, dancing and heroics.
I knew the movie, but I'd never seen the stage production. Now I understand the enthusiasm that has greeted this piece since its 1997 debut in Minneapolis and then on Broadway, where it won six Tony awards including that for best musical. The color, the movement and the dancing are magical. Director Julie Taymore and her imaginative cast and crew created from Disney's animated film something rarely seen on the American stage: a coming-of-age fable that's equal parts ballet, operetta, puppet show and sugarplum dream.
The Lion King, like so much of Disney, is a reassuring tale of youthful quest, conquest of adulthood, and triumph. The hero and heroine are sweet and unblemished, and the villains are comical. That one early touch of disaster, the death of the warm, supportive father-king, is inevitable and in some way tonic. It's a very gentle reminder of the generational losses that as mortal human beings we must always face (the king is dead, long live the king), alleviated by the simple mysticism of imaging those shining stars in the night sky to be our benevolent ancestors looking down upon us. Our hero Simba's only real sins are those of youth, somewhat like those of Henry IV -- impulsiveness, naïveté, flight from responsibility and keeping bad company (though not too bad, for Timon and Pumbaa are happy goofs, not real wastrels). There's even a fairy godmother in the character of Rafiki, the baboon conjur-woman (the ebullient Buyi Zama with her terrific vocal power).

Vehicle to Vehicle Communication to Prevent Car Wrecks
Written by Greg on September 29, 2014
With the increased number of traffic accidents that occur each year and the rise of innovative technology, many researchers are beginning to understand that the two can be connected in order to improve driver and roadway safety. According to the National Highway Safety Administration, new technological ground is being made when it comes to roadway safety in America. While, there are many technologies available on today's market that would improve road safety, one that is helping to shape the projected future of roadway safety is V2V communications.
New Driver Safety Technology, V2V
Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communications is a new, automated technology that essentially allows cars to "talk" to one another in order to maintain vehicle and driver safety while on the roadways. Using both cars' current trajectory, speed, and position, signals are sent out to other cars. These signals are then picked up by sensors and the data collected will help drivers make a conscious decision on how to handle the information. For instance, Car A can send out a signal to Car B, which Car B picks up to help the driver realize he or she needs to slow their car speed in order to prevent a potential collision. This kind of technology, not only takes into account other cars that are present on the roadway, but other obstacles that may be present on the road as well. In addition to these sensors, V2V technologies also implements what is known as left-turn assistance (LTA), as well highway regulators. The former technology will help drivers when they are making left turns, alerting them to any oncoming traffic, while the later highway regulators can indicate when a car is breaking very hard some distance away.
Although, the technology cannot account for human error, such as one's decisions to run a traffic light or otherwise disobey the rules of the road, research has shown that there is a very low margin of error for calculating the position and potential movement of other cars on the roadway.
Prevention of Car Wrecks
As one can imagine, this kind of technology can greatly improve the safety of America's roadways and ensure that the number of traffic accidents and fatalities are reduced overall. While the earliest V2V model will not be released until 2016, initial testing has already shown a very responsive and easy-to-use system. During its eventual release, however, there are already estimates that the technology will greatly reduce car wrecks, or lessen the impact of wrecks.
For example, with highway regulators a car will be alerted to a hard break from a car up ahead. The vehicle with the V2V system can help the driver to slow down, or break, in response. While this may not outright prevent a collision, it can certainly work to reduce any subsequent damages that are seen.
While the V2V technology may be some years off from public release, it does help to show the vast strides that are being made in the technological field when it comes to public safety.

Just When You Thought It Was Safe To Read The Paper
Dubya's trying to give a last big thank you to the oil companies that put him in office by destroying what is left of the Endangered Species Act. Why not? He's already destroyed the constitution, the military, the economy, and the reputation of the country for his cronies in the energy biz. Why let a few fish and birds (or clean air or water, or a functioning climate system) stand in the way of extracting every possible dime for Big Oil?

RM500 million donation to Cambridge University – "no smoke without fire": Mustapha should give full explanation before taking any further action
(Parliament, Wednesday) : I asked the Higher Education Minister, Datuk Mustapha Mohamed during the budget debate on his ministry yesterday whether it is true that the government had agreed to give a RM500 million donation to Cambridge University and that Petronas and Khazanah Nasional had each forked out RM190 million.
I said that this would be a extraordinary sum of donation as apart from UiTM, no other local university would be allocated with a bigger sum in next year's budget.
Mustapha denied that there had been a RM500 million donation to Cambridge University, but he did not completely dismiss the subject, using terms like "premature" and "final decision has yet to be made".
Such terms could only mean that it is a case of "no smoke without fire".
When I pointed out that using terms of like "premature" and "final decision has yet to be made" presupposes that the subject was a very active issue and asked why, as well as the reason for the government giving consideration to such an extraordinary endowment to Cambridge University, Mustapha said that this was part of the Ministry's "smart partnership" with foreign universities to achieve excellence in tertiary education.
Time did not permit the matter to be pursued in Parliament yesterday.
Mustapha owes the nation a full and satisfactory explanation before any step is taken on the RM500 million donation to Cambridge University.
I had referred in my speech to the "globalization dilemma" faced by Malaysia, based on recent developments of the US technology giant, Intel Corp in this region.
Last month, Intel announced plans to boost its investment in Vietnam to USD$1 billion from USD$300 million a mere nine months earlier. Reason given by Intel? "A very vibrant population, an increasingly strengthened education system, a strong workforce and a very forward-looking government". And it is said – where Intel goes, the IT industry often tends to follow.
Intel in Malaysia? The still unresolved RM100 million Great Microchip Robbery, which has threatened to drive away FDIs, without any seeming redeeming features from a reformed education system.
This, in a nutshell, sums up Malaysia's globalization dilemma. I put this to the Higher Education Minister to illustrate Malaysia's continuing slide in the stakes for international competitiveness.
Mustapha's reply? The government is fully aware of the challenges of globalization and international competitiveness and that was why the Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi had chaired the meeting of the International Advisory Panel on Biotechnology in Putrajaya earlier in the day!

U.S. stocks closed lower Friday, for the first weekly decline in a month, as investors looked beyond a litany of central-bank decisions of the past week and focused on the state of China-U.S. trade talks.
U.S. stocks turned lower in afternoon trade, dragged lower by the technology sector (PSE:XLK) and consumer discretionary shares (PSE:XLY) after a report that a Chinese delegation had canceled plans to visit farms in Montana as a part of its negotiations with the U.S. delegation.
Traders were also on the watch for any effects of "quadruple witching day" on Wall Street, the simultaneous quarterly expiration of stock-index futures contracts, single-stock futures, and options on stock-index futures and individual stocks, which often spurs higher volumes.
How are markets performing?
The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DOW:DJIA) sank 160.60 points, or 0.59%, at 26,934.19, the S&P 500 index (S&P:SPX) declined 14.89 points, or 0.5%, to 2,991.90, while the Nasdaq Composite Index (AMERICAN:COMP) fell 65.20 points to reach 8,117.67, a decline of 0.8%.
What's driving the market?
Wall Street stocks started the trading day higher after reports that President Donald Trump was exempting hundreds of Chinese products from tariffs.
Two negotiating sessions over the two days between the U.S. and Chinese delegations covered agricultural issues and the strengthening of China's intellectual protections and forced transfer of U.S. technology to Chinese firms, Reuters reported . Some of the Chinese delegation were to visit US farming regions over the weekend but the Montana Farm bureau tweeted that the visit was cancelled.
The cancellation came as U.S.-Chinese trade talks were held in Washington and U.S. President Donald Trump said he wanted a complete trade deal with the Asian nation, not just an agreement for China to buy more U.S. agricultural goods.
The U.S. and China have imposed import tariffs on billions of dollars' worth of each country's goods in the past two years, disrupting global manufacturing supply lines, discouraging business investment and slowing economic growth.
Other factors adding some volatility on Friday included "quadruple witching", while the S&P 500 index, S&P 400 and Sox Semi index will rebalance Friday as well.
In the weeks ahead, investors should brace for a return of "August-like" volatility, said Kate Warne, principal investment strategist with Edward Jones. Warne expects stocks to move higher, "but not on a smooth path," she told MarketWatch.
Meanwhile, it's too soon to try to predict the Federal Reserve's next move, Warne said, after the U.S. central bank cut interest rates by a quarter percentage point on Wednesday for the second time this year. A lot will depend on how trade negotiations play out in October, she said. "There are lots of signs the economy is slowing, but very few signs it's slowing quickly."
On Friday St. Louis Federal Reserve President James Bullard explained his dissent from the Federal Open Market Committee's decision on Wednesday to reduce rates, saying he advocated for a more substantial 50 basis-point cut because he thinks the manufacturing sector already appears to be in recession.
Boston Fed President Eric Rosengren, on the other hand, was one of two hawkish dissenters at the recent meeting, and he explained his opposition to rate cuts in a Friday statement, arguing that additional monetary stimulus would risk inflated asset prices and increased leverage.
Fed vice chair Richard Clarida defended this week's interest rate cut on Friday though, arguing that the U.S. economy remains in a good place but the global picture is worsening.
In recent weeks, monetary stimulus by central banks around the world has helped to ease fears about slowing global economic growth, but liquidity remains an issue for U.S. money markets given the deluge of U.S. Treasury borrowing to fund a widening fiscal deficit this year. The New York Fed outlined a schedule on Friday that would see it conduct daily repurchasing operations through October 10 to provide money market liquidity.
Which stocks are in focus?
Apple Inc . (NAS:AAPL) shares were up 0.2% Friday morning, as the new iPhone 11 goes on sale for the first time in stores. J.P. Morgan analyst Samik Chatterjee said that healthy preorders for the product indicates a "robust" trend for iPhone revenue. The gains led Apple to reclaim a trillion-dollar valuation during early Friday trade.
Netflix Inc . (NAS:NFLX) stock fell 5.9%, putting it on track for its third consecutive loss, after falling 2.4% and 1.7% Wednesday and Thursday, respectively. CEO Reed Hastings warned investors at a conference Friday that "While we've been competing with many people in the last decade, it's a whole new world starting in November . . . It'll be tough competition."
Shares of McDermott International Inc . soared 68% Friday morning, after the energy-services company said it was exploring a sale of its Lummus Technology business, which has been valued at $2.5 billion. McDermott's market cap sat at 287.1 million as of Thursday's close. The stock plummeted 73% week-to-Thursday's close over concerns that the firm was considering bankruptcy.
Shares of Roku (NAS:ROKU) slid about 20% after a research analyst distributed a note asking if the streaming-device maker was "broken." That follows a string of bad headlines for the company, and brings its two-week decline to over one-third of its September 6 record high.
How are other markets trading?

Kyocera Is Redefining Industry Expectations for Customer Service
CEO Sanchez recruits Verizon executive, Zupa, to lead transformation toward "superior customer experience."
Fairfield, NJ – July 17, 2019
Frank Zupa has always aimed high. The award-winning strategist, digital innovator, and business transformation specialist understands what it takes to enable long-term sustainable growth.
"Strong customer satisfaction requires so much more today," explains the former Verizon executive. "The goal needs to be a superior customer experience, that is fuelled by rich data, powerful business analytics and the constant asking of the question, if I were my customer, what would I want and need at every touch point. This type of transformation is occurring across every industry – and the document imaging solution industry is no exception."
Zupa is joining Kyocera Document Solutions America as the Vice President of Customer Operations, the latest high-profile hire by CEO Oscar Sanchez, who continues to
re-shape one of the world's leading document imaging companies into a solutions-focused, data-driven organization.
"The customer experience we provide is every bit as important as the products we develop," says Sanchez. "Frank is exactly who we want leading our effort."
Zupa's background is unique, a customer-oriented professional with a long history of technological innovation. For Kyocera, that means the entire customer experience is about to undergo a digital transformation. "Technology exists to help people, and to enable new advancements," said Zupa. "In the case of customer service, technology helps people help people. That's a big part of transforming the customer experience."
Zupa brings a vision to dramatically expand Kyocera's customer service capabilities, beyond expediting day-to-day issue-resolution. Some major goals include helping customers take advantage of advanced document imaging technologies and making it easier for customers to implement advanced solutions that manage workflow more efficiently. "I am so excited to join an organization that is truly committed to both industry leading solutions and a superior customer experience that enables its customers to transform their resident information into knowledge that will grow their businesses and better serve their customers."
"Frank brings a different kind of expertise and a different kind of perspective," says HR Vice President Natalie Cumberbatch, herself a Sanchez recruit from outside the industry. "A lot of times, that's what's needed to raise the bar."

Consisting of a single 6,000-foot runway, the Ray S. Miller Army Airfield at Camp Ripley in Minnesota required major improvements in order to meet modern air traffic needs. TKDA prepared plans for upgrading the airport and implemented several airfield improvements as recommended by the US Army Corps of Engineers.
TKDA upgraded the taxiways by replacing 30,000 SY of asphalt paving with concrete paving. The project also called for slurry coating and crack sealing of the runway and approximately 29,000 SY of airport aprons. Additional improvements included adding helicopter tie-down hooks, airfield guidance signs, airfield runway and taxiway lights, new runway and taxiway markings and a new rotating airport beacon.

How do you truly live the kind of life you want, the kind of life you deserve? Well, simply stated, start doing more of the things that feel good and less of what feels bad.
Too easy, right? No! You are responsible for your own destiny. It's unfortunate that we convince ourselves that there are good reasons to do ourselves harm. We say things like "I had a long day; I deserve dessert," or "I need the paycheck" or "It will feel good right now even if it feels bad later."
We over-think life and show disdain for the simplicity of things that reliably nourish us. If only we could focus on the foundation: build loving relationships, eat food that nourishes our bodies, create space in our lives for rest and self-care, create a life that radiates inspiration – big or small.
Let's start at the beginning. How can you do less of what feels bad and more of what feels good? Try this: pause before you take any action and recall how that action made you feel in the past – not just in the moment, but in the long term. For example, I know that if I eat one of my mom's delicious homemade cookies, the wheat and sugar will leave me feeling yucky and droopy. Recalling that feeling is enough to make me opt for the apple.
With this one simple act, you will quickly discover that you are more available for the things that leave you feeling good. And that good will lead you…to the life you deserve.

Sometimes when I'm coding Rails applications, it's useful to split up CSS and Javascript files by controller/views to prevent loading a huge CSS or Javascript file (containing all of the styles and code for the entire application) on every single page of the application when you only really need it for a specific set of your pages.
To load these dynamically (without having to include each named stylesheet by hand on each page), use the following code in the head of the main application layout:
<% filename = controller.controller_name %>
<% if FileTest.exist? RAILS_ROOT + "/public/stylesheets/" + filename %>
<%= stylesheet_link_tag "#{filename}" %>
<%= javascript_include_tag "#{filename}" %>
<% end %>
This assumes that your stylesheets and javascript files are named according to the controller views in which they appear; if you'd just like to include javascript files of your choosing on certain views, put this in the head of the main application layout:
<%= yield(:header) %>
And insert this code in your view with the appropriate CSS and javascript files you'd like to include:
<% content_for :header do %>
<%= javascript_include_tag "file.js" %>
<%= stylesheet_link_tag "file.css" %>
<% end %>

In Italy there are many places to visit, each with its own history. It is impossible to make a list of all the places to visit; probably, to get to know Italy would take a lifetime. Among all, there are four places to visit for the beauty of their landscapes and history that bring with them.
Rome, the capital of Italy and the Roman Empire
This city is full of landmarks and monuments, which have made it famous in the world. The Colosseum is the symbol of the city and perhaps also the symbol of Italy, a destination not to be missed. The Trevi Fountain is one of the most beautiful places to visit; every day thousands of tourists throw coins in it asking for a good omen. Rome is also very special because it contains within it the world's smallest state, the Vatican. St. Peter's Basilica is an amazing place, with Bernini's colonnade that surrounds it. And yet, there are some very famous squares such as Piazza di Spagna with the Spanish Steps, Piazza Navona and the Roman Forum. The places to see in this city are endless.
Lake Como
Lake Como is a magical place. The beauty of the landscape has always attracted many celebrities, from Rossini to Churchill, from Napoleon to George Clooney. At the center of the lake stands the Comacina island, rich in history, home to the ruins of the basilica of St. Euphemia. If you are looking for a really lovely and romantic place to spend your holidays, Lake Como can be the ideal destination.
Venice is a city sui generis. The town lies on a lagoon and this has made it one of the most famous and particular cities in the world. The most famous sight of the city is the Piazza San Marco, where is the famous Basilica, home to a large number of mosaics and wealth from the middle east, especially from Constantinople. Also famous are the Palazzo Ducale and the Campanile of San Marco that was built as a lighthouse. There is also the famous Bridge of Sighs.
The island of Elba
The island of Elba is a gem that is located close to Tuscany. The beaches are fantastic and its small towns each have their own peculiarities. A wealth of hotels and tourist facilities, it is really the idea for a summer vacation! If you are passionate about art and history, you can't miss a visit to the villa of Napoleon Bonaparte, his residence during his exile.

Senegalese President lauds ties with UAE
DAKAR, Senegal, President Macky Sall of Senegal welcomed an official UAE delegation led by Hussain Jasim Al Nowais, Chairman of the Khalifa Fund for Enterprise Development, KFED, to the Senegalese capital, Dakar.
During the delegation's visit, President Sall praised the strong ties and friendly relations between his country and the UAE. He also expressed his country's keenness towards supporting and further consolidating bilateral ties of the UAE and Senegal, especially across various fields of interest.
In line with the visit, KFED signed an agreement with the Senegalese government for the creation of the Mohamed bin Zayed Centre for Innovation and Entrepreneurship, which will be located in Dakar and aimed towards promoting innovation and entrepreneurship among local businesses, particularly small and medium enterprises, SMEs.
President Sall conveyed his appreciation to President His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan for his continued support towards strengthening cooperative relations between the two countries. He also thanked His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, for his interest in supporting Senegal's economy by helping promote and encourage a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship, while also empowering the role of women across different economic activities.
The Senegalese President noted that the UAE continues to play a pivotal role of supporting the economic development of many countries, particularly providing sustainable support programs that have been developed based on its interest to spread stability and sustainability across the globe. He pointed out that selecting Dakar as the location of the new Mohamed bin Zayed Centre for Innovation and Entrepreneurship demonstrates the depth of the bilateral relations enjoyed by both countries.
He revealed that the new centre would play a key role in the development efforts of Senegal and its neighbouring countries, especially across its move to integrate and empower young people in contributing effectively to economic activities and help them to build a sustainable knowledge economy.
President Sall took note that the new centre will also serve West African countries and strongly reflects the UAE's commitment towards promoting sustainable and economic diversification among countries in the West African region, helping reduce poverty and unemployment to create a lasting state of economic and social stability.
Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed has directed the KFED to work in close coordination with the Senegalese government to help them in establishing a centre aimed at promoting innovation while also supporting the development of micro and SME projects with a capital of US$20 million.
In response, KFED Chairman Al Nowais, conveyed the greetings of Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed to the Senegalese president, taking note that the creation of the new Mohamed bin Zayed Centre for Innovation and Entrepreneurship will help in the promotion of a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship not only in Senegal but also to its neighbouring countries.
"The UAE's wise leadership remains fully committed in supporting the efforts to achieve sustainable development of Senegal and West African countries and to strengthen government efforts that promote entrepreneurship, encourage innovation, empower women and support young people to contribute in creating a state of sustainable development that is reflected on the future generations of Senegal and these other countries," Al Nowais stated.
Established 12 years ago, KFED has become one of the leading institutions tasked to promote a culture of entrepreneurship in the UAE. It has funded more than 1,600 projects within the UAE, while transferring its successful experience to more than 20 friendly countries in Asia, Africa and Europe through pioneering financing programmes.

Three Brighton and Hove sites identified for hundreds of new low-cost homes
The first three sites have been identified for hundreds of new low-cost homes as part of a joint venture between Brighton and Hove City Council and housing association Hyde.
The sites are in Clarendon Place, Portslade, north of Varley Hall in Coldean Lane, Brighton, and just west of Swanborough Place, in Whitehawk.
All three sites are on land owned by the council which will be sold to the £120 million joint venture on a long lease.
The principles of the deal were agreed almost a year ago after two marathon meetings of the council's Housing and New Homes Committee.
Now the same committee is being asked to support the sale of the first three plots where hundreds of the 1,000 planned homes are to be built. Other sites will be chosen later.
The scheme is aimed at providing homes for rent or shared ownership for working people who earn a living wage.
Rents would start from £118 a week at today's prices for a studio flat, rising to £206 for a three-bedroom property.
A final deal on the disposal of the three sites will be taken by the council's Policy, Resources and Growth Committee on Thursday 12 October.
All three political parties on the council backed the joint venture after long debate over some of the details of the scheme and all ran for office on manifestos promising low-cost housing.

How about the schools that will serve these? Where are they being built?
September 26, 2017 at 11:40 am
The homes are intended for people who already live in Brighton & Hove – so their kids will already be in school. In any case planning deals with infrastructure for new developments, so this will be assessed as/when planning applications get submitted. It looks like a good idea to me!
September 27, 2017 at 1:08 am
And what about the kids that move into the homes in Brighton & Hove that are vacated by those relocating to these new 'low-cost' homes? There's no guarantee that they'll all be existing pupils of Brighton & Hove schools!
September 25, 2017 at 12:59 pm
I thought it was a £104m joint venture so it is already going to cost more.Why could they not have done the same at Kings House instead of letting a Developer make millions?
Good luck to those trying to enter and exit Coldean lane.
December 20, 2017 at 8:59 pm
Coldean lane has been royally screwed already by Brighton and hove Albion a few more homes in coldean isn't go in to make the slightest difference
September 26, 2017 at 10:19 am
This is excellent news. It's the exact sort of thing the city needs to attempt to counter the housing shortages and the huge housing costs.
October 5, 2017 at 9:45 pm
Why don't the council build their own houses like they used to for council tenets to rent and they will earn money on them for the life and they would be built to a better standard and not the rabbit hutches private builders do to get as many houses in as possible to make as much money not thinking of how people will be living.
October 23, 2017 at 5:00 pm
I think it's because central government stopped funding that some years ago.
October 7, 2017 at 8:45 am
Excellent news, finally more family homes in and around Coldean. Good to see the rents to be affordable.
October 8, 2017 at 1:33 pm
So where will the access be? Through Varley Park entrance or a new junction?
October 29, 2017 at 4:58 pm
I want more details regarding buying.
December 5, 2017 at 9:44 pm
How about building more social housing in the more leafy and affluent areas of Brighton and Hove as well as areas with high levels of social housing already or is the opposition so great that it is not even considered
January 6, 2018 at 10:53 am
I would disagree I don't think the rent is affordable two hundred odd a week to my thinking is high my reasoning is..if your a couple both working then not too bad but many people are single parents so cought in a poverty trap relying on council benefit.
Are the council not building any homes whatsoever??
January 7, 2018 at 11:42 am
Brighton is inundated with students and more and more are coming it is my understanding they don't pay council tax and landlords get away with it also no wonder the council are owed millions, there seems to be no problem allowcateing land for Studant accomdation there are places going up everywhere in Brighton, Brighton &Hove council need to build houses and flats that people can rent from the council not a joint venture with a housing association
January 8, 2018 at 7:22 pm
The blurb says for those earning a living wage, I don't earn that much, so will I not qualify?

To me, palm trees are like mountains. You see one, you've seen them all.
I have a similar mindset about beaches. Granted I can differentiate between Padre and St Tropez, but one tropical locale from the next gets a little trickier.
I'm sure this is all very small beach minded to an island connoisseur. But I'm no beach connoisseur, just a cocktail and swim suit expert.Sand is sand. Mai Tais are Mai Tais.
But a retro bikini? Now that, I get.

How to Write A Great Employee Thank You Note
Posted by Judy on Oct 30th 2018
A handwritten thank-you note says more than any text, email or Facebook post ever can. It sends the message that you went out of your way to sit down and write a personal note, just for the recipient. But you still want to ensure that what you write inside of it quickly and thoughtfully expresses your thanks. Follow these tips to craft the perfect thank-you note to your employees, clients or colleagues.
- Don't start off on the wrong foot. Be sure to use the correct spelling and form of the person's name.
- Get right into it. Begin with the two most important words: Thank you. You may also use a similar opening like "It made my day when…" or "I'm so grateful…"
- Be specific. Tell them exactly how their hard work, commitment or skill helped to make an impact. It shows them why you appreciate them.
- Look ahead. Talk about an upcoming project you look forward to partnering on or a future conference you hope to see them at.
- Thank them again. Restate your thanks in a different way. "I really appreciate your hard work" or "Thanks again for working late all those nights."
- Sign off. In the business world, "Sincerely" or "Many thanks" are acceptable options for a thank-you card.
Most importantly, try to think about what you'd say in person and be sure that translates in the card. Who doesn't love to read a sincere message of appreciation?

Well it's the final day in turkey and it has been a beautiful holiday, what started off as a rough time turned in to a relaxing holiday to recharge batteries and escape reality for a week.
Admittedly things haven't been easy with Lincoln being poorly and the heat affecting him to go with it but it really has been great. We've seen some beautiful sites and experienced holidays in turkey, with some amazing shopping to go with it (most days we ended up shopping, my favourite thing to do)
We flitted within the resort to the three towns of Olu Deniz, Hisaronu and Fethiye. This is lovely resort and I would definitely recommend it to most people! Ideal for families and couples, probably not The liveliest of places for stag/hen dos but still a great option! My only advice would be to make sure you have children that enjoy being by the pool or who are easily occupied. One thing I would have loved to do and will definitely be back at some point to do is the paragliding and boat trips, with Lincoln the boat trips didn't really seem practical as he gets fidgety and bored easily but if he was older we would have definitely done one!
The food is great, we had a wonderful experience at every restaurant we went to, everyone doted upon Lincoln giving him free meals and ice cream (result) and occupying him if he began to get fidgety whilst we ate. Being poorly he was off of his food slightly but the cold ice cream and milkshakes went down a treat with him!
Our hotel was brilliant and so accommodating, nothing was to difficult for them, the maids new we were out in the morning and back in the early afternoon when the sun/heat was at its highest to keep Lincoln cool so they would make a point of doing our room around that. The hotel staff again were great as we wanted to extend our room stay until the late afternoon on our last day so we had time to freshen up before our flight. Again this was no hassle to them. The Turkish breakfasts are… different so we mainly stick to toast but in the evenings we would regularly eat down at the bar and the food was great! Pool was so clean and everything was so well cared for.
The shopping… oh my god, the shopping! The clothes are great, the shoes are even better but the bags, oh dear lord the bags!! All genuine fakes of course but they were all so good I had a struggle to pick which ones I would be taking home with me! I'm so glad I had my mum with me though, you are continually hassled and haggled in turkey, I personally cannot stand it, it makes me so uncomfortable and that is probably the only thing I hated about this place! But mum was great, knocking them all down on prices (she was actually pretty good at it) and making sure Lincoln and I were safe the entire time! Even if I did nearly punch a guy for calling me barbie!
All in all we had an amazing time and I look forward to going back again, maybe next time with more of the family and to marmaris.
Wish us luck on the flight back!

Deep Sea Fishing Tours in Plymouth
Massachusetts Excursion
Men and women have been catching and eating fish since time immemorial. In a world of supermarkets, it's easy for some people to forget where their food actually comes from. If you're interested in trying the time-honored tradition of catching your own fish, consider going on a deep-sea fishing adventure with Captain John Whale Watching & Fishing Tours. We'll gladly show you bountiful waters off the coast of Plymouth and throughout Massachusetts Bay.
Species of Fish
Massachusetts Bay has been teeming with fish for untold centuries. Today, you can find many species of fish in the Bay, including the following.
- Cod: Atlantic cod is one of the most popular fish among seafood lovers, and lends itself particularly well to fish and chips. Atlantic cod can grow up to a whopping 200 pounds.
- Flounder: Massachusetts Bay is teeming with winter flounder during the winter. These fish are known for being flat-shaped and for having both eyes on one side of their body.
- Haddock: Haddock have black lines running along their sides and can grow to be about three feet in length. As food, haddock is very versatile.
- Pollack: Pollack grow to be about 3.5 feet in length, and are known for their silvery lines of scales. Like Atlantic cod, pollack have white flesh and are often featured in New England cuisine.
Group Deep Sea Fishing
If you have someone with you on your deep-sea fishing trip, there's a greater chance that people will believe your outlandish fishing stories. Captain John Whale Watching & Fishing Tours encourages all kinds of groups to try out their sea legs. We're proud to offer advantageous rates for groups small and large.
- Clubs: If you're part of a fishing club in New England, you might try something a little different. Deep sea fishing is an entirely different experience than freshwater fishing, and will help you and your fellow club members fall in love with the sport of fishing even more. Of course, deep sea fishing is a fun activity regardless of what kind of club you belong to.
- Private Charters: Captain John Whale Watching & Fishing Tours hosts private parties all the time. If you're looking to host an unforgettable bachelor/bachelorette party or class reunion, consider booking a deep sea fishing tour out of Plymouth.
At Captain John Whale Watching & Fishing Tours, we have decades of experience fishing with beginners, seasoned anglers, and everyone in between. If you're looking to share a unique experience with friends and family, don't hesitate to book a Plymouth fishing tour.

Suffolk Coastal residents can now sign up to the new Garden Waste Collection Scheme.
Suffolk Coastal District Council is introducing a £43 a year charge for collecting garden waste this financial year (2018/19).
The scheme is optional, with the first paid-for collections scheduled to start from the beginning of May 2018.
It's quick and easy to sign up, either:
You will need a debit or credit card to pay. The fee for one bin is £43 for a year (the equivalent of paying about £1.65 per fortnightly collection). You can place your order now and don't forget to say 'YES' to the upgrade.
Cllr Carol Poulter, Suffolk Coastal's Cabinet Member with responsibility for the Green Environment explained:
"Although the new paid-for Garden Waste Scheme doesn't start until May, we are urging people to sign up now to avoid a last minute rush to join,"
"This is a completely voluntary scheme, but people have to opt into the scheme and pay the annual fee. This will not happen automatically. Basically, if you have not joined the scheme by the beginning of May, your garden waste will not be collected by us."
"People will obviously be able to join later in the year but, the best way to make sure there is no gap in the service, is to join up now and your membership will run from this May to 30 April 2019."
One of the key benefits from joining the Suffolk Coastal Garden Waste Scheme is that subscribers will also be given the option of receiving a free, larger (240 litre) green bin for their garden waste (240 litres is the most common wheeled bin size, but the current brown organic waste bins in Suffolk Coastal are 140 litres).
The new, larger green bins are expected to be delivered during the autumn (2018) to those residents who request one and have subscribed to the garden waste service.
At this stage, subscribers to the Garden Waste Collection Scheme will be able to continue to put organic domestic waste (such as food waste) in with their garden waste.
Suffolk Coastal currently collects about 50,000 tonnes of domestic household waste a year. About one third of this (about 15,000 tonnes) is organic waste. This is co-mingled garden (estimated 13,000 tonnes) and food (estimated 2,000 tonnes) waste.
The remaining waste is made up of general 'residual' waste at 22,000 tonnes (44%) and dry recycling at about 13,000 tonnes (26%).
The co-mingled organic waste (food waste collected together with garden waste) collected by Suffolk Coastal Norse for Suffolk Coastal is currently processed into an agricultural soil improver at an in-vessel (IVC) composting facility at Parham.
This organic waste processing contract ends on 31th March 2019, so a new contract is required to provide waste processing arrangements from April 2019 onwards.
Suffolk Coastal District Council is planning to deliver one of its most sizeable and ambitious capital investment programmes to date with an estimated value of about £30m, without relying on any external borrowing.
Cllr Poulter continued:
"The reality is that Suffolk Coastal protected the 'free' collection of garden waste for as long as it could,"
"The key thing that people need to realise is that this is about us protecting local services and being able to keep Council Tax increases down to a minimum. Any funds raised from the garden waste collection service will be re-invested in providing services to local people."
"Suffolk Coastal remains committed to an ambitious programme of community-based and major capital investments, such as the current leisure redevelopment, in the coming years. So we need to continue to generate income where we can, now and in the future."
The Suffolk Waste Partnership, which includes Suffolk Coastal District Council, funds a scheme making home compost bins available at subsidised prices from as little as £8.99 for a 220 litre compost bin or £9.99 for a 330 litre bin.
The scheme also includes subsidies on several composting systems which can deal with some cooked food waste. To order a home compost bin or to see more details, visit the Get Composting website or call 0844 571 4444 quoting SUF 17L.
In addition, all households will be invited to keep and re-use any unwanted brown bins if they wish. The bins are suitable for a number of alternative uses, including composting.
Wheeled bins can be put to use in many different ways such as: tool storage, feed store, water butt and compost bin to name a few, and there will be other ideas on our website shortly.
Please consider whether you would like to keep your brown bins after the upgrade. You can tell us if you want us to remove them when you subscribe to the scheme. We will let you know later about when to present your unwanted brown bins for removal.

The AP course and exam in European History are intended for qualified students who
wish to complete classes in secondary school equivalent to college introductory
courses in European history. The exam presumes at least one academic year of
college-level preparation, a description of which is set forth in this book.
The inclusion of historical course material in the Course Description and in the exam
is not intended as an endorsement by the College Board or ETS of the content, ideas, or
values expressed in the material. The material has been selected by historians who serve
as members of the AP European History Development Committee. In their judgment,
the material printed here reflects the course of study on which this exam is based and is
therefore appropriate as a measure of the skills and knowledge acquired in this course.
The AP European History course corresponds to the most recent developments in
history curricula at the undergraduate level.* In colleges and universities, European
history is increasingly seen in a broad perspective, with teaching methods reflecting
an awareness of other disciplines
and diverse techniques of presentation, including
visual and statistical
materials. Trends such as these are used by the Development
Committee to adjust the course and the exam.
The exam is divided into three parts: a multiple-choice section dealing with
concepts, major historical facts and personalities, and historical analysis; a documentbased
essay designed specifically to test students' ability to work with evidence; and
two thematic essays on topics of major significance. Together, these three parts of the
exam provide students with an opportunity to demonstrate that they are qualified to
pursue upper-level history studies at college.
All sections of the exam reflect college and university programs in terms of subject
matter and approach. Therefore, questions in cultural, diplomatic, economic,
intellectual, political, and social history form the basis for the exam. Students are
expected to demonstrate a knowledge of basic chronology and of major events and
trends from approximately 1450 (the High Renaissance) to the present. The entire
chronological scope and a range of approaches are incorporated throughout the exam.
Students need to understand the designations for centuries; e.g., the seventeenth
century is the 1600s, not the 1700s. In the multiple-choice section, approximately
one-half of the questions deal with the period from 1450 to the French Revolutionary
and Napoleonic era, and one-half deal with the period from the French Revolutionary
and Napoleonic era to the present. A number of questions may be cross-chronological
or combine several approaches. No essay or multiple-choice question will focus on the
pre-1450 or the post-2001 period.
Changes in religious thought and institutions
Secularization of learning and culture
Scientific and technological developments and their consequences
Major trends in literature and the arts
Intellectual and cultural developments and their relationship to social values

JAF logistical hub project launched at eastern border
By Bahaa Al Deen Al Nawas - Jul 19,2019 - Last updated at Jul 19,2019
A European Union delegation to Jordan poses for a photo with members of the Jordan Armed Forces-Arab Army (Photo courtesy of EU)
AMMAN — The EU delegation to Jordan and Expertise France on Thursday launched a project to build a logistical hub for the Jordan Armed Forces-Arab Army (JAF) in Mafraq Governorate.
The ceremony, held at the King Hussein Business Park, was attended by representatives of the JAF, the Public Security Department, the Gendarmerie Department and the Civil Defence Department and other national authorities.
The six-million-euro project aims at improving coordination of civil-military operations in the eastern part of Jordan through a multi-agency logistical hub in Ruwaished, Mafraq, in addition to providing capacity-building training.
The logistical hub will provide "critical logistical support" to the JAF, which will "enhance the ability of the Jordanian authorities to quickly react to any humanitarian crisis or security threat at the eastern borders," French Ambassador to Jordan David Bertolotti said at the ceremony.
The hub's strategic location in Ruwaished is going to improve national authorities' capability to respond to any threats at the northern and eastern borders, such as terrorist infiltration and drug and weapon smuggling.
The project will also contribute to maintaining the resumption of regular cross-border traffic with Iraq.
The EU-funded project is expected to be finished in 18 months, Expertise France's director of stability, safety and security, Jérôme Heitz, said.
EU Ambassador to Jordan Andrea Matteo Fontana added: "This hub will complement the ongoing EU projects to reinforce the Karameh border-crossing point and to establish effective and integrated border management in Jordan for the safe passage of goods and people."
On behalf of the JAF's chief of defence, Director of the JAF's Planning and Organisation Department Brig. Gen. Abdullah Hunaiti said that the "project is a step in the right direction and it will help to achieve the balance between security and humanitarian assistance and will allow the Jordanian army to respond to humanitarian and security challenges at the northeastern border with Syria in a timely manner".
Expertise France, a public agency for international technical assistance, is implementing the project.

1.Our English Teacher
Our English teacher, Ms Huang, came to our school in 1970. She has been an English teacher for more than 30 years. She works hard and has been a model teacher for many years.
She is kind and friendly to us after class, but She is rather strict with us in class. She always encourages us to speak and read more English. She often says, "Practice makes perfect."
She is good at teaching and tries her best to make every lesson lively and interesting. She often gives us slide shows, teaches us English songs and helps us to put on short English plays.
She is not only our teacher but also our friend. We all respect and love her.
Tomorrow she is going to attend an important meeting, at which she will be given a medal for her advanced deeds.
2.My English Teacher
Our English teacher, Mr. Wang, is a strongly built thirty-year-old man, who is often simply dressed. He has been teaching us English ever since he graduated from the English Department, Beijing Normal University in 1993. He devotes all his time and energy to teaching, often working late into the night preparing his lessons. He is capable of making his lessons lively and interesting, and all of us like his lessons. He is very strict with us but he shows us great concern. He offers us help whenever we need it. We all consider him not only as our good teacher but also as our close friend. We all respect and love him.
3. Our school
Our school is located at the centre of Beijing, It is one of the largest schools in the city with over 2,000 students and about 200 teachers. Our school subjects include politics, Chinese, English, maths, history, geography, physics, chemistry and biology and so on. Most of us pay great attention to the study of English, Chinese and maths because they are very
important subjects in the university entrance exam. We take special interest in English. We have spent much time on it, but we still find it difficult to learn the language well. In the afternoon when class is over, we enjoy staying at school for about one hour for some physical exercises before leaving for home.
4. My Home Village
My home village is a small one. It's in Yuxian county of Shanxi Province. Small as it is, it's very beautiful.
There are many hills around my home village and they are more beautiful than some big mountains. In spring, we can fly kites which are made by ourselves on the top of the hills. The kites fly very high. In summer, the trees are green and the grass is green, too. It is green everywhere on the hills. There are so many wild apple trees on the hills. The wild apples are nice to eat. In autumn, the corns under and around the hills are ripe. So we eat them almost every day. In winter, when it snows, all the ground is covered with snow. We can play with snow and sometimes we eat the clean snow with sugar. In my hometown the sky is blue, the air is clean, the water is sweet and the people are very friendly. I love my hometown!
5.Changes in Our Life
Over the past twenty years or so, great changes have taken place in our life. Take my family for example. My parents contacted others mainly by sending them letters in the past. But now we call long distance at home. And once my parents listened to the radio for news and other information. But now we get the news by watching TV. Another big change is in my living conditions. When they got married about twenty years ago, my parents lived in a small room crowded with furniture. But now we have moved into a big new three-room apartment. In short, our life has become comfortable and convenient.
6.A Good Deed
Oct. 19th Tuesday Fine
One afternoon, on my way home, I saw an accident: a car hit an old man!
I shouted to the pedestrians for help, but no one stopped. When the car driver saw this, he quickly closed the window Of the car and drove away. "What shall I do? The old man needs help." I thought.
At that time, a truck stopped and out came the driver. "What's wrong with the old man, boy? What could I do?" the driver asked me. "Uncle, please help the old man. A car hit him and he is badly injured! "I said. "Well, don't worry. Let me take him to the hospital.'' the driver said.
A few minutes later, the driver took the old man to the hospital and I telephoned the police station. I told the whole story to the police and I also told them the number of the car. The police said to me, "Well done, boy! Leave it to us. He must be punished!" Then I went to the hospital to see the old man.
When I got home, it was 7:30. I think what I did was fight.

Dear Jian Hua,
I' m very glad to have received the letter you sent me two weeks ago.
To Jian Hua
Dear Jian Hua,
I'm very glad to have received the letter you sent me two weeks ago. I' ve been thinking about the question you asked me. In my opinion, you should come back after you finish your studies abroad.For one reason, what you are studying is badly needed nowadays in China. It will be quite easy for you to find a good job. In fact, I know a few big companies in our city are hoping to employ people like you. For another reason, I think it will be much more convenient for you to look after your parents as they are getting old. Therefore, I think it's a good idea for you to return. So what are you waiting for?
Best wishes;
Ming Hua

Dear sir,
I hear that our school will welcome some Canadian students to stay with us for or two weeks. Students who want to invite them to stay can take part in it. I want to try.
First , my parents and I can speak English well. That benefits us to communicate with each other. Second, our house is big enough for he or she to stay. Furthermore , I live near the Huangpu River. It has a good view of Shanghai.
Last but not least , in my home, he or she will enjoy much China culture. My grandpa and grandma are good at
handwriting. My grandma also has a good skill in Chinese painting.
I think our friendly will give him a both interesting and comfortable experience.
Thank you for your reading during your busy work.. I hope that you will agree with me .
Yours sincerely,

The social situation I will be facing must be more competitive, so I will develop and prepare myself to be a youth with a strong sense of cooperation and competition. Believe in me, Mum and Dad, I will make a difference.
Best regards to you .
