A book inspired by forty miles of Oregon sand dunes is unlikely to pique most people’s interest. In fact, it was rejected by twenty publishers before Chilton Books (better known for car repair manuals) took a punt.
Describe the same book as an epic exploration of religion, politics, ecology and the coming of age of a young man, set on a far planet which is the sole source of a drug required for interstellar space travel and you have one of the most important pieces of late 20th Century literature, Frank Herbert’s 1965 novel ‘Dune’.
With over 12 million copies sold it is the best-selling science-fiction novel of all time.
Someone was bound to make the film…
David Lynch’s ‘Dune’ (1984)
The film rights for Dune were first optioned in 1971 but it would take several false starts (including a version with Salvador Dali as the Emperor) before David Lynch became attached to the project (apparently choosing ‘Dune’ over ‘Return of the Jedi’).
Kyle MacLachlan (‘Paul Atreides’), Sean Young (‘Chani’), Patrick Stewart, Sting and a crew of 1700 decamped to Mexico's Samalayuca Dune Fields for an arduous shoot on the eighty film sets that recreated Herbert’s futuristic Universe.
While a cult favourite of die-hard fans, the critical and box office response to the film was unfavourable. Lynch was dissatisfied with the level of artistic control he was able to exercise over the project and has subsequently disavowed the film, even exercising the ‘Alan Smithee’ privilege to remove his name from the credits of later cuts of the film.
It would take a brave director to step-up to the complexities and subtleties of Herbert’s tome and shake off the shadow of the previous movie.
Denis Villeneuve’s ‘Dune (2020)
With major sci-fi successes ‘Arrival’ (2016) and ‘Blade Runner 2049’ (2017) under his belt, it would-be French-Canadian director Denis Villeneuve who would take on the challenge.
Sensibly deciding to split the book over two films rather than cram it in to one, Villeneuve told FANDOM that ...
“Most of the main ideas of Star Wars are coming from Dune so it's going to be a challenge to [tackle] this. The ambition is to do the Star Wars movie I never saw. In a way, it's Star Wars for adults.”
A phenomenal ‘all-star’ cast, including Timothee Chalamet, Rebecca Ferguson, Oscar Issac, Josh Brolin, Stellan Skarsgard, Dave Bautista, Charlotte Rampling and Zendaya have filmed in Wadi Rum, Jordan (known as ‘the Valley of the Moon’), Abu Dhabi, Norway and Hungary to bring to life the first half of the novel.
We were given glimpses of the result in a newly released trailer…
… plus a fantastic Q&A with director and principal cast.
‘Dune’ is set for release in December 2020 and we will have the movie posters as soon as we can get our hands on them.
By the way, did you enjoy the music in the trailer? Pink Floyd’s ‘Eclipse’, from ‘The Dark Side of the Moon’!

UK braced for snow and -10C temperatures
You'd forgotten it was winter, hadn't you
A cold snap is bringing this unusually mild December to a close, reminding us all it is in fact winter. Dangerous conditions are forecast for today and tomorrow.
Met Office forecasters have issued weather warnings for much of the UK, predicting the cold temperature will be accompanied by spells of rain, sleet and snow.
Up to six inches of snow is forecast for the Peak District, Staffordshire, Shropshire, Midlands, parts of Wales and later the South West today.
Temperatures will be lowest in western Scotland, the Met Office warning that mercury could "tumble towards freezing, perhaps getting as low as -10C in western Scotland where there is a covering of snow."
Many parts dry inland with sunny spells but feeling cold. Wintry showers affecting most coasts, whilst early band of rain, sleet and snow moves south across England and Wales and decays.
Wintry showers affecting in north and west with further snow in far north. Most inland areas dry with clear spells and a widespread frost. Ice and freezing fog patches likely.
Cold with sunny spells with scattered showers around coasts in Scotland and Northern Ireland. Rain, sleet and snow moving eastwards across southern UK with risk of snow to low levels.
Area of rain, sleet and snow clearing from the southeast on Thursday. Further wintry showers feeding inland from northern and eastern coasts with overnight frost and patchy ice. Remaining cold.
Wednesday could see another swathe of #snow across parts of Wales, and the southern half of England
...BUT the track of this low pressure system will be crucial to who does and doesn't see snow. #Watchthisspace pic.twitter.com/XCrimSGAPN
— BBC Weather (@bbcweather) December 28, 2020
A Met office forecaster said: "Northerly winds will bring further showers of rain, sleet and snow across the north of Northern Ireland as well as northern and western Scotland. Snow accumulations will be generally confined to ground above 100m away from coasts, but some temporary slushy deposits are possible to low levels at times in any heavier showers. 1-3cm is likely to accumulate above 100m, and as much as 5-10cm above 250m, this mostly across high ground of Scotland.
"Ice will form readily as temperatures quickly fall away rapidly through both Tuesday and Wednesday evenings."
Yellow weather warnings for snow and ice were issued across nearly all of the UK this morning and into tomorrow, with snow and ice in the South and London to last into Thursday.
Most areas will see only small amounts of snow or none at all.
What does a yellow weather warning mean?
Yellow means "be aware". Severe weather is possible over the next few days and could affect you.
Plan ahead and think about possible travel delays or the disruption of your day to day activities.
Keep an eye on the latest forecast and be aware that the weather may change or worsen, leading to disruption of your plans in the next few days.
Public Health England's Dr Emer O’Connell said: “Experience shows us that every winter thousands of people are seriously affected and even die from illnesses linked to the cold.
"Protecting yourself from the cold may seem like common sense but many people do not manage to keep themselves warm
“If you know someone at risk, someone over 65, anyone with dementia or a heart and lung condition, or a young child, check up on them and see if there’s anything you can do to help.
"All of us should be heating our homes to at least 18C, keeping up to date with weather forecasts and planning our days around them - simple steps can really help protect against the cold.”

8,000 rally in Seoul to back farmers, protest trade
Stars and Stripes June 22, 2007
SEOUL — Eight thousand South Koreans gathered downtown on Wednesday to protest a planned free trade agreement with the United States, saying it would put the country’s farms out of business.
“The agreement is a nuclear bomb to wipe out all the Korean farmers,” said Lee Sang-duk, a 48-year-old livestock farmer from a small town in the southeastern corner of the country, near Busan.
Farmers from across the country traveled by tour bus to Seoul City Hall for the peaceful afternoon rally and march, some waving flags and wearing headbands condemning the agreement. South Korean riot police attended the rally, but no major clashes were reported as of Wednesday evening.
U.S. Forces Korea issued an advisory urging U.S. citizens to avoid the 20,000 expected demonstrators, and to avoid using public transportation in the downtown area for most of Wednesday.
U.S. and South Korean officials are meeting late this week to revise parts of the free trade agreement, reached in April, so it has a better chance of being approved by Congress, Yonhap News reported. Many South Koreans believe the free trade agreement will give unfair advantages to U.S. companies and products.
Kim Hak-do, 48, who owns a small tomato farm near Daejon, expects his business to fail if the trade agreement passes because people will want to buy cheaper imported tomatoes.
“I just want to survive with my family,” he said
Many protesters were angry at the South Korean government, which they felt was abandoning them, but not at the United States.
“It is not like we are angry with the U.S. for pushing their own concerns, but I am very frustrated that we don’t have the (South Korean) government speaking for us,” said Kwon Phil-whan, a pig farmer who believes there is no future for farmers in South Korea.
Rice farmer Lee Jung-ik said the agreement will benefit big Korean companies like Hyundai, as well as American farmers.
“We will end up being the losers,” he said. “I don’t think it is wrong for the U.S. to pursue its own interests. But there must be a win-win policy that will be good for the Korean farmers and the Americans.”
Rice farmer Han Sang-yun, however, was angry at the United States.
“I hate America for always trying to rob the weak person,” he said. “The Korea government is not standing by the poor and the weak people, either.”

Mind you, when the boss told me that I could have anything at all for my birthday meal ... wow! Flights of fancy, such as caviar, Hollywood-style, came rushing to mind: as in Garbo as Anna Karenina, dipping into a great heap of ice-cooled sturgeon roe. "What?" I cried. "Money no object?" No, there's a cap of £10 a head, came back the stern reply. Meanness itself. But perhaps it's better that way: the problem with such grandiose productions is that everything generally looks better on paper. Remember Babette's Feast?
No, I would resist the dread words of "theme" and "different"; I'd just be myself, and cook a simple, elegant, robust meal, and hope for my favourite presents, a bottle of good fizz and an armload of cut flowers. Glad company, hearth and home would create the mise en scène.
So, what to begin with? A starter is a pivotal dish, critical in relaxing all into the meal, and therefore requires a great deal of consideration. While prepping in the restaurant, dwelling on this subject, in walked Mr Beale, a stout fellow with a twinkle in his eye and one of the ruddiest complexions I've ever seen. He was making his once-a-week delivery of the very best smoked eel, and it occurred to me that a dish of Beale's Eels' finest would do splendidly: sliced thinly, accompanied by crisp bacon, a really good poached egg and some horseradish to enliven the whole.
Generally speaking, I prefer that a main course should be a dish of simplicity, with the principal ingredient - be that fish, meat, fowl or game - of the finest provenance, and cooked and accompanied in a manner that complements the raw material. That is, after all, the mark of all good cooking. The presentation should be without fuss or fanfare, letting the prime ingredient take its rightful place as the star of the meal.
Well, it's a great theory, but what on earth was this dish fit for my birthday to be? It occurred to me that I rarely, if ever, eat veal these days. Sure, I have it on the menu at the restaurant, but its price is such (on account of the calves being hand-reared) that we can't afford to waste any of it, let alone allow any to slip off in the direction of the staff. So, veal is what I chose. The best veal dishes are Italian and, seeing as it is my birthday, a small taste of La Dolce Vita seems a perfectly reasonable request: cream sauces have been given a very bad press of late - of course, cream in every sauce in every meal is silly and lethal to a waistline and heart alike - but, every now and again, and cooked simply, a cream sauce is delicious. And when that sauce is charged with capers and anchovies and grappa et al and then spooned over a veal chop, it is very, very good indeed.
I must confess to preferring no vegetables here, save for a few freshly gathered small potatoes, all waxy and delicious, and anointed with a little butter. In fact, I would prefer, instead, some really good cheese to have later on - a cracking good Cheddar or one of those dreamily creamy Irish cheeses, such as Durrus, with that patchy crust coloured varying hues of pink to beige, and the cheese itself all soft and yielding to the touch; or Cashel Blue, so rich and glorious.
In the same manner as the devoted oenophile whose choice of wine will determine the choice of food, the ice cream I choose will determine the pudding to partner (in my book, ice cream is a must at any party). Coffee makes a great ice cream, one of the best in fact, yet it is all too rarely seen these days. Coffee ice cream with chocolate sauce is a very good combination; even better is coffee ice cream spooned into a chocolate soufflé - a heavenly mix.
The final, and most important, ingredient required to make this dinner special is the time to sit and enjoy the fruits of one's labours.
All recipes serve six.
Smoked eel salade - a wonderful composed salad.
600g smoked eel fillet
12 rashers very good streaky bacon
18 small waxy potatoes
1 tbsp red-wine vinegar
4 tbsp top-quality olive oil
1 tsp chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 tsp caster sugar
1 tsp white-wine vinegar
3 tbsp double cream
1 dssp grated fresh horseradish
Salt and pepper
6 fresh free-range eggs
Preheat the oven to 150C/300F/gas mark 2. Lay the rashers of bacon on a rack and cook them in the oven until crisp and well coloured. Scrub the potatoes clean, and boil them until cooked through.
While they are still warm, peel the spuds and toss them in the red-wine vinegar, oil, salt and a little pepper. When they are cool, cut the potatoes into slices and toss with a little more oil and the parsley.
Dissolve the caster sugar and a pinch of salt in the white-wine vinegar, then add the cream and horseradish (by all means up the quantity of horseradish if you like), and stir.
Thinly slice the eel and set to one side. Set a pan of water on the cooker, and bring to the boil. Add a spoonful of white-wine vinegar, then crack the eggs into six small cups. Poach the eggs in their cups for three to four minutes, until the white is cooked and the yolk runny. Have to hand six plates, and on them pile all the ingredients one upon the other, starting with the potatoes and finishing with the bacon, and serve at once.
Veal chop with ham, anchovies, capers and grappa - a splendid dish that is both simple and unusual. Also, it is not without a hint of La Dolce Vita, so it's ideal celebration food. It is worth noting that British veal is dark and extremely delicious.
2 tbsp capers
6 good anchovy fillets
160g thickly sliced boiled ham
6 veal chops, around 2.5cms thick
Vegetable oil, for frying
Salt and pepper
60g unsalted butter
4 tbsp grappa
6 tbsp whipping cream
If the capers are salted, rinse them and then chop roughly. If they are preserved in vinegar, chop them roughly. Finely chop the anchovies and cut the ham into small cubes. Liberally pepper and lightly salt the veal. Heat a large, heavy-based frying pan and into it pour a thin layer of light oil. Gently lay the veal in the oil - do not cram the meat in the pan; if need be, do the chops in two or more batches or in two frying pans. Leave the chops to cook, undisturbed, until a rich, brown crust has formed on one side, about seven minutes or so. Turn over the chops, and repeat - do not fall prey to the temptation to prod or lift the meat in any way. Seven minutes on both sides will cook the veal to a splendid medium-rare (if you prefer it more or less well done, reduce or increase the cooking time accordingly).
Transfer the chops to a warm dish. Add the butter to the pan, stir in the chopped anchovy until it has almost dissolved, then add the capers and ham, and stir to coat thoroughly. Tip in the grappa and, while it bubbles away, scrape up any residue adhering to the bottom of the pan. Stir in the cream, let it simmer for a bare minute, then set the veal on the dining plates and anoint each with sauce.
Chocolate souffle with coffee ice cream - having got your soufflé (or, indeed, the individual soufflés) to the table, break the crust and spoon in a generous helping of the ice cream. Eat swiftly, as it really is marvellous. The ice cream, from Elizabeth David's Italian Food, is the best recipe I know, and at its best churned just a few hours before eating (the custard for it can, however, be made the day before). You really need an ice-cream machine for this.
For the ice cream...
A scratch of lemon zest
110g freshly roasted coffee beans
6 egg yolks
Set a pan of water on to boil. Take a bowl that will sit happily on the pot without touching the water and reduce the heat to a murmuring simmer. Put the cream, lemon zest, coffee beans and egg yolks in the bowl, and sit it upon the pot. Stir gently and steadily until the mixture thickens considerably. Remove the bowl from the heat, stir in the sugar, and leave to cool (upon a bowl of ice, if necessary). Churn according to the instructions of your ice-cream machine.
For the soufflé...
100g plain chocolate
2 tbsp strong coffee
30g unsalted butter
3 egg yolks
5 egg whites
1 tbsp sugar
Icing sugar, for dusting
Generously butter and lightly flour a soufflé bowl (or six individual soufflé moulds) and tie a collar(s) of greaseproof paper around it (or them). Preheat the oven to 190C/375F/gas mark 5, and move the shelf to the middle of the oven.
Put the chocolate and coffee in a small bowl over a small pan of simmering water, and stir until melted and smooth. Slake the cornflour with three tablespoons of milk and, when you have a smooth paste, beat the rest of the milk along with the 60g sugar into the flour mix and tip into a saucepan. Bring to a boil over a high heat, remove from the flame and stir in the chocolate and coffee, scraping down all the mixture from the sides of the bowl. Dot the surface of the milk/chocolate mix with butter and leave to cool.
In a scrupulously cleaned bowl, beat the egg whites until voluminous and peaked. Add a tablespoon of sugar and carry on beating until stiff. Scrape the chocolate mix into a separate bowl and beat in the egg yolks. Fold in first a quarter of the egg-white mixture, then the rest, a third at a time, taking care to maintain as much volume as possible. Pour the mixture into the mould(s). At this stage, the soufflé mix can sit for several hours, lightly covered, until it is required. Remember, the dessert is best served straight from the oven.
Bake for 35 minutes, then dust the top with icing sugar and cook for a further 10 minutes (individual soufflés will take only 15-20 minutes). Insert a needle to check that the soufflé is cooked through - and if it comes away clean, then you can be sure the soufflé is done.
To serve, crack the top of the soufflé with a spoon and drop the ice cream within. One might even think about adding some Cognac ...

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in the world. Tobacco is an addictive agent producing carcinogenic effects that have been extremely difficult to prevent or detect in a curable stage. Important randomized controlled studies have been published in "healthy" smokers (primary prevention); patients with early lesions, such as mucosal dysplasia/metaplasia (secondary prevention); and those who have already had definitive treatment for their first tobacco-related malignancy (tertiary prevention). To date, the results have been generally disappointing. It is critical to remember that lung cancer is usually diagnosed decades after the patient has begun or even stopped smoking. We must intervene with more effective agents or combinations of agents and do it earlier in the process of carcinogenesis. Approximately 10% of patients with lung cancer either never smoked or only were "passive" smokers due to their environment, workplace. These "never-smokers" may actually benefit from retinoids, while current smokers have not benefited from α-tocopherol, retinal, N-acetylcysteine, or isotretinoin. Smokers are actually harmed by the concurrent use of beta-carotene. We now have unprecedented knowledge regarding the control of cellular growth and senescence. New diagnostic tools also allow detection of smaller lesions. We must use all our knowledge of the cancer biology, new risk models, more refined intermediate markers, and modern detection tools to focus more clearly on the pathology of lung cancer and design research to ask more probing and relevant questions so we can begin to put an end to the worldwide scourge of this terrible killer.

Xiaomi Redmi 5 was unveiled about a year ago preinstalled with Android 7.1.2 Nougat and while it is expected to receive an update to Android Oreo, Xiaomi hasn’t given any indication that it is about to begin the official rollout.
The Redmi 5 was unveiled alongside a Plus variant and the latter, also known as Redmi Note 5 in India, has already been upgraded to Android 8.1 Oreo. Although Xiaomi is still quiet on when the same update will arrive on the standard model, we have a reason to believe the OS may start rolling out in the next few weeks.
It was in late October 2017 that the first MIUI beta based on Android Nougat arrived on the Redmi 4. With October here, we are likely to see the first MIUI beta based on Android 8.1 Oreo for the Redmi 5 rolling out soon. Xiaomi is expected to roll out the stable MIUI 10 update to the Redmi 5 in mid-October and if we are right, the Oreo-based beta update should arrive soon after.
It took Xiaomi about two months to test Oreo on the Redmi 5 Plus before the stable version was released. If the Redmi 5 does get the Oreo-based MIUI 10 beta before the end of October, it’s likely to see the stable version arrive before the end of this year. I’ll keep my fingers crossed!


PHOENIX — A federal appeals court has ruled that a Border Patrol agent who fatally shot a Mexican teen on the other side of the border doesn’t have immunity and can be sued by the boy’s family for violating his civil rights.
The ruling on Tuesday has wide implications and came almost two years after the agent’s attorney argued he was immune from a civil lawsuit because the U.S. Constitution didn’t extend to 16-year-old Jose Antonio Elena Rodriguez, who was in Mexico when agent Lonnie Swartz shot him about 10 times through a border fence.
The Border Patrol has said Elena Rodriguez was throwing rocks at Swartz, endangering his life.
The central question in the case is whether Elena Rodriguez was protected by the U.S. Constitution as a Mexican citizen on Mexican soil.
In a very similar case out of Texas, a different appeals court has ruled that a teen boy who was also fatally shot by an agent in a rock-throwing incident was not protected by the Constitution. That case made its way to the U.S. Supreme Court, which appeared to be divided on the issue and which sent it back to the lower court without making a decision. The lower court then reaffirmed its decision that the boy wasn’t constitutionally protected.
The Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said in its decision that the agent “violated a clearly established constitutional right and is thus not immune from suit.”
The conflicting opinions in the different appeals courts, both of which cover cases on the U.S.-Mexico border, could mean the Elena Rodriguez case ends up back in the Supreme Court.

Fresh off their success in flipping the Virginia Legislature, gun-control activists are targeting the Lone Star State in the coming November election and planning an $8 million spending spree to back gun-control-supporting candidates.
First reported by the Houston Chronicle, Everytown for Gun Safety (billionaire Democrat presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg’s gun-control advocacy group) is planning an “unprecedented financial and grassroots effort” to flip the Texas House to Democrat control, defend vulnerable incumbent congressional Democrats, and assist in efforts to defeat Republicans in the suburbs.
“We believe that Texas, as it becomes younger and increasingly diverse, can be the next emerging battleground state with gun safety as the tipping point,” Chris Carr, the group’s political director, wrote in a memo supplied to Hearst Newspapers. “We believe there are opportunities to elect gun sense candidates up and down the ballot, from the statehouse to the U.S. Congress—and potentially even statewide.”
The move is part of a national spending spree by Everytown that aims to spend at least $60 million, more than double what it spent in the 2018 midterm elections.
Just last year, Everytown and other left-wing groups were successful in flipping both houses of the Virginia Legislature from Republican to Democrat hands and jeopardizing the rights of gun owners.
In Virginia, citizens currently enjoy better gun laws than their countrymen in the Lone Star State (Virginia, unlike Texas, does not require citizens to obtain a government license to carry a handgun openly), but attempts by the newly elected Democrat majorities to curtail the rights of gun owners through background checks, red-flag laws, and other restrictions have made nationwide news.
Conservatives in Texas have long been fighting to strengthen the state’s gun laws in advance of a coming assault against them. With Everytown announcing a significant investment in the Lone Star State, Republicans must be even more diligent and thorough in vetting their candidates and ensure they stand in full support of gun rights.
“If Virginia is the framework for gun-grabbers in Texas, we simply cannot afford to fill the legislature with Republicans who have a malleable view of the Second Amendment,” said Jon Francis, a Republican candidate for Texas House District 60. “We need real, conservative leaders who will not fold under pressure from the gun-control lobby and will boldly stand in defense of our rights without compromise.”
Texas Scorecard will continue to monitor Everytown’s activity in the Lone Star State moving forward.

Great stay. We really enjoyed it overall. Everything to do with inside the building was perfect (which is most important in my opinion). If your parking your car it's a different story. The valets
seemed rushed and not very patient people. On top of that we experienced 3 faulty garage access cards.
Specifically dealing with the marathon, the hotel had shuttles and a late breakfast which was awesome. The hotel was also close to the convention center where the expo was. You pay for location and you get location. [Less]

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: April 1, 2009
Sierra Club Rolls Out Strong Support for Labor
Washington, D.C.—The Sierra Club today joined with labor unions, workers, Members of Congress, and actors from The West Wing to unveil the "Faces of the Employee Free Choice Act" ad campaign. The campaign, launched at a Capitol Hill event, features new, creative billboards and building banners that will be displayed throughout Washington, D.C.—including on the Sierra Club's Capitol Hill office—and in states across the country. The ads featuring workers demonstrate the grassroots momentum for passing crucial worker's rights legislation. The campaign is just one element of the broader, large-scale effort to expedite passage of the Employee Free Choice Act.
"Passing the Employee Free Choice is one of our most important legislative priorities," said Margrete Strand Ragnes, Director, Sierra Club's Labor, Workers' Rights & Trade Program and Deputy Director, Blue Green Alliance. "President Obama has put forward plans that will revitalize our economy with millions of new green jobs. Passing the Employee Free Choice is not only the right thing to do, but it will give workers the tools they need to make sure that these green jobs are also good jobs."
Just as the Sierra Club is partnering with labor unions to advance workers' rights legislation and other key initiatives, the labor movement is also an active partner in efforts to pass comprehensive clean energy and climate legislation. Just last week, the Blue Green Alliance—an alliance between environmental groups and labor unions, including the Sierra Club, Service Employees International Union (SEIU) and the Communications Workers of America (CWA)—announced joint principles for climate legislation. This shared agenda will revitalize our economy with millions of new good, green jobs.
"The labor and environmental movements together are a formidable force," said Andy Stern, President of SEIU. "We share the goals of developing a green economy that promotes workers' rights to unite on the job to create a new generation of good jobs. United, we can address climate change in a way that protects workers and their communities."
The banner can be seen at the Sierra Club's Capitol Hill office, located at 408 C Street NE. Please contact Josh Dorner for high-resolution images of the banner.

Bartow Middle School teacher Samantha Swafford has set up a discreet boutique where needy students can get donated clothes and personal care items for free in privacy.
- Boutique discreetly helping needing students
- Bartow Middle School teacher Samantha Swafford has set up boutique
- Allows students to get clothes, personal care items
Staff at the school will refer students to the small room that that is set up to look like a small store. “To make the kids feel like they were shopping,” said Swafford. “Not just getting something second hand. That it was a real shopping experience maybe some of them hadn’t had before.”
Swafford came up with the idea for the boutique last spring after coming to Bartow Middle from Highland City Elementary. She said there were many needy students at the school. Some come from local shelters.
Principal Chris Roberts said he has known Swafford many years and she has always shied away from recognition for the things she has done for students. “She’s always had that passion and she doesn’t like to be in the spotlight,” he said.
Swafford said the boutique has helped about 35 students so far this year. "I get a little emotional about what the staff does here all the time for the kids,” she said. "So I kind of feel guilty because this is my way. But the staff does things here every day that are similar to this. But it is hard to take a picture of that.”
If you would like to donate shoes, clothes or person care items to the school their number is 863-534-7415.

Although the budgetary allocation for health is relatively low in terms of the GDP, it is still quite a large amount with the allocation for this year being Rs. 125 billion. The public health service has about 15,000 doctors, 29,000 nurses, tens of thousand of other Para-medical personnel and minor staff.
We have about 700 public hospitals, more than 400 public medical clinics. It is a gigantic structure, and the overall service needs to be appreciated, though there are many faults and failings and acts of medical negligence which are often highlighted far too much as if to show the public health service is one hell of a mess. It is not. Having said that, we also need to point out the main problems caused by lack of regulation and proper management of the allocation.
Largely because of the political ills and ailments in the public health service, the 1977 switch to the globalised capitalist market economic system, a cancer invented by British Premier Margaret Thatcher who died recently, enabled the Government here to gradually privatise the health sector. According to latest figures, nearly 70% of the out patients today go to private hospitals or clinics, though where warded patients are concerned, some 90% go to public hospitals and only 10% comprising mainly the richer classes can afford to get warded in private hospitals. The charges in some private hospitals are as high as five-star hotel rates, and they have become so profitable that more and more business magnates and government political leaders are setting up private hospitals. Often highly-expensive drugs under various brand names are prescribed along with non-essential expensive tests.
Sometime ago the Government passed a law for monitoring and regulation of private hospitals. For reasons that could be easily diagnosed, the law itself appears to be gravely ill and warded in a private hospital. According to Dr. Joel Fernando, a patients’ rights activist and distance education coordinator of the Post-Graduate Institute of Medicine, one of the main problems in the health service today is the lack of a referral system. Most people do not have a family doctor who treats not only the disease but more so the patients also. Through a long association and the availability of records of past ailments in dispensary files, a family doctor knows the patient physically, psychologically and otherwise. Thus the family doctor is able to diagnose the ailment and give effective treatment. If the family doctor believes that the ailment is serious and requires treatment by a specialist, then the family doctor refers the patient to a consultant. Unfortunately the principle of family medicine is virtually dying or has been killed by vested interests. Therefore millions of patients go to private hospitals and pay heavily to see a consultant who often does not know them and just prescribes expensive drugs or tests. If the Government cannot or does not want to implement the private hospital laws, it must take steps to revive the principle of family medicine and encourage every family to first see the family doctor.
A complete overhaul is the need of the day. Health facilities inspite of the various moves still remain beyond the reach of the man in the street.If the ideal is from the womb to the tomb much remains to be donemore by the profession itself than the poor hapless patients.Lot of reforms have to done that too immediately if there is to be meaningful health service within reach of the average man.The family physician is a must if the higher rungs depend on the history and not smattering by the suffering patient.
Samanthi Bandara Wednesday, 17 April 2013 07:32 AM
This is completely true. Absence of a referral system makes health system a mess. But, my argument is this. Though, health sector needs more money for health in the country, I believe that health sector can gain "More health for the existing money". For this transformation, as the author mentioned above, ‘good governance’ and ‘effective stewardship’ is essential in order to formulate a strong regulation system with a proper system to manage the sector. To improve the health outcome furthermore, every organ of the health system must be technically sound.

BOSTON — The Massachusetts Senate hopes to move forward with a climate resiliency bill — which will affect the burgeoning offshore wind industry south of Martha’s Vineyard — around Earth Day, Senate President Karen Spilka said Wednesday in an online forum.
“We’re working fast and furiously on a climate bill,” Spilka said. “We don’t have as much sun as maybe California or Florida has, but we have offshore wind and we need to capitalize on that.”
The House passed a bill to invest in offshore wind on March 3. It includes money for investment in innovation, a credentialing program to train wind farm workers, and funds for energy infrastructure to support a changing electrical grid, said Rep. Dylan Fernandes, D-Falmouth, who filed the bill.“We have a real opportunity here in offshore wind to bring a sustainable, clean industry to diversify our workforce (on the Cape and Islands),” Fernandes said. “That’s a big deal for our neck of the woods, which has been, I think, historically overlooked.”
The Vineyard Wind project will bring about 40 “good-paying, year-round” jobs to its Martha’s Vineyard facility, he said. His bill’s “school to prosperity pipeline” would create an offshore wind credentialing program in Massachusetts high schools, run by a new Offshore Wind Industry Investment Trust Fund that would also promote innovation and infrastructure improvements.
The trust fund would be paid for by diverting money from the existing Renewable Energy Trust Fund, which raises money through a charge on electricity customers, according to a press release from Fernandes’ office.Fernandes said his motivation to advance offshore wind comes from the “urgency of climate action.” He hopes the Senate will prioritize every part of his bill in their climate legislation this session.
“Sea level rise, increased flooding, increased power of storms, is also going to have a huge impact on my district, which has more coastline than any other district in the state,” Fernandes said. “There’s no greater issue that’s going to impact my generation and my children’s generation than that of the impact of global warming.” Sen. Julian Cyr, D-Truro, said the Senate is “committed to taking action” on offshore wind and climate change in its Earth Day legislation, which will have to be reconciled with the House climate bill in a conference committee before being sent to the governor’s desk.
“What we’re aiming to do here is make sure that Massachusetts is as competitive and as aggressive as possible in tapping into the potential that is offshore wind,” Cyr said. “From a geographic perspective, we are in one of the strongest positions of any state in the country.”
Spilka said the Senate legislation will also include efforts to electrify public transportation and invest in electric cars in order to get “gas guzzlers” off the roads.
Mayflower Wind, another firm pursuing a wind energy project in the waters south of Martha’s Vineyard, hopes offshore wind legislation will create a smoother permitting process, said Daniel Hubbard, the director of external affairs at Mayflower Wind. Regulations for offshore wind at the federal level and in many states are still in their infancy.
“Regulatory uncertainty can make investment complex,” Hubbard said. “Each time you suffer a delay there are costs associated with that.”
Hubbard said he applauds the Massachusetts state government for being a leader in investing in the offshore wind industry and emphasized the need for more solicitation of wind projects by the state and upgrades in grid capacity to further develop the industry. Mayflower Wind is looking at 2027-28 to have its wind farm up and running.
The offshore wind industry is shaping up to be a major job creator in Massachusetts, said Jennifer Menard, vice president of economic and business development at Bristol Community College, who oversees the college’s National Offshore Wind Institute.
“I’m so excited that the Legislature has focused on this emerging industry,” Menard said, “because we have a natural resource and the jobs will be here because of that natural resource, and the Legislature is really aware of it and talking to stakeholders like me.”
Bristol Community College has a power technician credentialing program that helps people compete in the emerging offshore wind job market, Menard said.

Pfizer is set to defend itself in Texas trial over the company's hormone-replacement drugs after a court overseeing lawsuits over the medicines sent 200 cases back to their home courts.
A judge in Galveston, Texas, set a 2011 trial date for Karen Zahn’s claims against Pfizer’s Wyeth unit. Zahn says in her suit that the Prempro menopause drug helped cause her breast cancer. There are more than 8,000 lawsuits over the medicine consolidated in federal court in Arkansas to be returned for trial.
More than 6 million women took the menopause drugs to treat symptoms such as hot flashes and mood swings before a 2002 study highlighted their links to cancer. Wyeth’s sales of the medicines, which are still on the market, topped $2 billion before the Women’s Health Initiative study concluded they posed an increased breast-cancer risk.

The FromSoftware title racked up 3.4 billion hours of viewing in just two months.
A few months after its launch, there is no doubt that Elden Ring is one of the protagonists of this year 2022. And it is that the game of FromSoftware It is not only a commercial success, having sold millions of copies since its release, but it has also taken over the main video game conversations.
His influence is even more evident if we look at the statistics he has shared YouTube Gaming in relation to the content of the game on the video platform. Elden Ring has recorded 3.4 billion hours of viewing on YouTube in 60 daysfar above other notable releases such as GTA V, Red Dead Redemption 2 or Super Mario Odyssey.
Margit is the most featured boss on YouTubeIn addition, the platform has shared the enemies that have starred in the most videos and hours of viewing, being Margit, the Fallen Omen the one that appears the most of all the bossessomething understandable given that he is the first one we meet on the main road, although Malenia, Godrick and Radahn follow him.
In relation to the classes, without a doubt Samurai class is the favorite of those who have uploaded YouTube videos, ahead of the Hero, the Miserable, the Astrologer and the Warrior, who have generated fewer hours of viewing.
We will have to wait to see if this barrage of players that has arrived in this new installment of FromSoftware finally translates into Elden Ring being considered the quintessential game of this 2022. For now, analysts suggest that it could achieve a sales milestone very complicated: to overcome the Call of Duty figures accumulated during this year.

The AUKUS alliance will kick off a new innovation challenge series early next year with an initial focus on electronic warfare, defense leaders from the three nations announced Friday.
Australia’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defence Richard Marles, U.K. Secretary of State for Defence Grant Shapps and U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, met at the Defense Innovation Unit’s headquarters in Silicon Valley, where the primary focus of their discussions was on advancing Pillar 2 of the trilateral military partnership.
Pillar 2 of AUKUS is geared toward developing and fielding emerging technologies including artificial intelligence and autonomy, advanced cyber, hypersonics and counter-hypersonics, quantum tech, undersea warfare and electronic warfare.
The new innovation challenge falls under that umbrella.
“We have innovation hubs, obviously, in the Defense Department … [that] run prize challenges from time to time, designed to facilitate collecting the best technologies and ideas from the commercial sector with the goal of leveraging those to enhance U.S. military capabilities,” a senior U.S. defense official told reporters on condition of anonymity during a background briefing at the Pentagon ahead of the trilateral meeting and official announcements. “What we’re going to be announcing is doing essentially a trilateral innovation challenge where … each country will release a common innovation prize challenge, and it will be eligible to companies from all three nations. So, it’s illustrative of the way that AUKUS is deepening our ability to innovate together and work together.”
The U.S. and other nations have been moving to boost their offensive and defensive EW arsenals to try to gain an edge and protect themselves against growing threats in the electromagnetic spectrum.
“The first area that we’re focusing on [for the new innovation challenge] is electronic warfare, because we view enhancing our electronic warfare capabilities as critical from the perspective of all of our defense strategies. And it’s an area that we’ve been working together on in AUKUS,” the official told reporters. “I think for the innovation prize challenge, we were really focused on what are areas that our national defense strategies across all three countries identify as important, and … where we are working together in AUKUS, and where we see opportunities for further collaboration. And electronic warfare clearly fits into all three categories. You know, it’s clear that enhancing our capabilities in that arena will be essential on the 21st century battlefield.”
They declined to reveal how much money will be up for grabs for the prize competitions.
“We don’t have anything we’re ready to announce today on the specific dollar amounts involved, other than to say that we think that it will provide important incentives for industry partners from all three countries to contribute ideas to the first challenge focused on electronic warfare … The Defense Innovation Unit has been spearheading some of our efforts in the United States. And so our plan is for the release of the first prize challenge in early 2024,” the official told DefenseScoop at the briefing.
DIU will be overseeing the competition on the U.S. side, according to the official.
They did not disclose what the next focus of the innovation series will be after EW.
“But I think that future topics are likely to, you know, hit some of the same criteria that I just laid out and that capability areas that we’re working on in AUKUS and which are central to all of our national defense strategies,” the official said.
AUKUS leaders are also set to announce other initiatives, including a new series of experimentation and exercises focused on autonomous capabilities in the maritime domain.
“It’s a bold new effort aimed at testing, developing and delivering advanced maritime autonomous systems to our warfighters,” the senior DOD official told reporters during the background briefing.
It will involve a series of integrated trilateral activities aimed at boosting capability development and improving interoperability, the senior DOD official told reporters during the background briefing.
The experiments and exercises will provide additional opportunities for defense companies to participate in technology demonstrations, development and delivery, they noted.
The official suggested the events could include tech that’s similar to what Task Force 59 under U.S. Navy Central Command has been using in the Middle East region. The task force has been using a variety of unmanned systems, sensors and artificial intelligence capabilities to create a “mesh network” for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions.
The unit also recently successfully tested the ability of a robotic surface vessel to launch a loitering munition and hit its target.
More broadly, the alliance is establishing an AUKUS industry forum with government and industry representatives from the three countries to help inform policy, technical and commercial frameworks to facilitate the development and delivery of advanced capabilities that the nations are pursuing. The first meeting is slated for the first half of next year, according to the official.
The announcements came as the alliance is gearing up to deliver AI algorithms to their militaries in an effort to bolster intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR), precision targeting and other mission areas.
The nations have been testing common algorithms on multiple systems, according to the official. As an example, they pointed to the P-8 maritime patrol aircraft. Using the AI technology will allow military personnel to more quickly process large amounts of data from all three nations’ sonobuoys, thereby enhancing AUKUS’ anti-submarine warfare capabilities, they noted.
“In April, we successfully conducted an autonomous swarm demonstration in the U.K. In October, we conducted trials of trusted robotics and autonomous systems in South Australia. Because we’re focused on getting capabilities to the warfighter in AUKUS, we’re integrating these technologies into national programs starting next year, focused first on the land and maritime domains,” the official said.


KlangKonfus is the newest sound project by multimedia artist Nino Strohecker.
Never been trained to play an instrument or learned how to read music notes he started to experiment with a bas guitar and ended up in the Grazer noise formation Fehlgeburt.
Then moving to Linz to study Visual Media Design at the Art University he bought his first electronic music tool a Roland MC-307 Groovebox and he is still using it today.
After several attempts with different formations and living in Graz, Linz Stockholm, Berlin and Vienna he returned to the city of his growing up Klagenfurt.
The name chosen for this new project describes in all means the electro punk sound of Nino Strohecker in the best way:

I was feeling particularily sunny and in the mood for something sweet as I started to dig out some supplies and loved theses My FavoriteThings stamps “You’re The Sweetest” so I decided to try a new technique with a gift from a friend. She had given me a set of Faber Castell Stamper’s Big Brush Pens because she knew I was art journalling and was using Gelato’s. She suggested layering them and she showed me some of the things she had been doing with them and I loved them. I have not had time to try them out till this past weekend when I started layering them on the stamps and the results. They have a painterly effect and you can blend the colors together right on the stamp.
The brushstrokes from the markers show up when stamped and the colors overlay each other but what is really great is that they are not water soluable, so you can add Watercolors, Gelato’s or Wink of Stella on top and not dilute the color. Great for building colors.
I really was going for a painterly wet look and after I overlayed the color multiple times I added clear Wink of Stella for the sparkle and wet shine and it did not make the color run…LOVE that! Enjoy- Lee Ann

Players were eager to return to action in the first round of the McDonald’s NSW Premier Cricket competition for 2018. Evidence of this comes from brilliant individual performances with both bat and ball across the lower grades.
Two captains lead the way in the batting charts for round nine of the McDonald’s NSW Premier Cricket competitions.
Gordon Cricket Club’s fourth-grade captain Stuart Bromley complied an impressive 146 against Fairfield-Liverpool at Fairfield Oval.
Having been sent in to bat first by the opposing skipper, Bromley came to the crease with his side in considerable trouble at 4-28 with all top four batsmen failing to reach double figures.
In true leadership fashion Bromley weathered the early storm and put together a dominant display with Gordon's lower order that included a 112-run seventh wicket partnership with Manus Chauhan that catapulted his side to 9-285.
Gordon’s bowlers continued on their form with the bat to dismiss Fairfield-Liverpool for 164 in the 42nd over, with young Green Shield bowler Jordan Hayes finishing with figures of 5-24, which were the best figures for the round across the lower grades.
Bankstown’s fifth-grade captain Alex Kouventaris also led the charge for his team in their match against Blacktown at Grahame Thomas Oval.
Having also been asked to bat first, Bankstown was up to the task with captain Kouventaris posting 130 not out from only 115 deliveries in an innings that included 19 fours while also clearing the fence with one six.
Two 100-run partnerships with Lawson Clark (64) and Thomas Ramage (46 not out) helped the home side reach 6-314 from their allotted overs. The target was all too great for the opposition who were bowled out in the 44th over for 235.
Sydney Cricket Club opening batsman Matthew Rodgers continued his form from 2017 posting his second consecutive second-grade hundred in his side’s victory over Parramatta at Drummoyne Oval.
Rodgers scored 115 before eventually being dismissed by Luke McNaught (5-50) who was the most effective bowler on the day.
It was Rodgers third hundred for the season, having scored 101 in the previous round along with a mammoth 178 not out in first-grade back in round two of the competition.
Another two players rounded out a hat-trick of centuries in fifth-grade on the weekend. Sydney Cricket Club wicket-keeper Sam Cividin scored an unbeaten 113 from 111 deliveries against Parramatta.
Cividin stuck five boundaries and three sixes to lead his side to victory chasing 206 runs with six wickets in hand.
Gordon’s fifth-grade captain Aaron Crofts also reached the triple figure milestone in his team’s win over Fairfield-Liverpool. Crofts’ unbeaten 109 was the notable contribution for his team who went on to set 6-380, the highest team score for the round across all grades in round nine.
Gordon was just as devastating with the ball removing the opposition for only 90 inside 30 overs to claim a bonus point win by 290 runs.
North Sydney bowler Shantanu Havele almost matched the bowling efforts of Gordon’s Jordan Hayes.
Havele claimed 5-25 from his ten overs against Sutherland at Sutherland Oval. Havele crucially broke a 75-run opening stand and followed it up with another two quick wickets to wrestle back some control in the match for his team. He then rounded up the tail to give his batsmen a respectable total of 178 to chase, which they did to great effect reaching the mark with four wickets in hand.
Blacktown’s Bhanchander Ravichandran also took 5-27 as his side successfully defended 155 against Bankstown to claim a tight win by only seven runs in fourth-grade.
Hawkesbury’s fifth-grade opening bowler Ethan Sitaramayya snared a vital 5-29 which went a long way towards helping his team claim victory by the slimmest of margins, chasing Randwick-Petersham’s 141 with just one wicket in hand on the back on a heroic 12-run tenth-wicket partnership.
Western Suburbs had a duo of five wicket-takers this week. Rowan Carthey (5-31) and Emmanuel Parmakellis (5-32) produced near identical performances in fourth and third-grade, resulting in a victory for both grades against Manly-Warringah.


32 Y e a r b o o k 2 0 1 0 Bridgend Townscape Heritage Initiative The Glamorgan town of Bridgend (in Welsh, Pen-y-Bont ar Ogwr) takes its name from the 15th-century bridge on the River Ogmore (Afon Ogwr) around which the town grew up. Bridgend was a thriving market town by the 19th century, when many of its historic buildings were constructed. The town and its infrastructure developed rapidly during the Industrial Revolution, its fortunes closely allied to those of the coalfield communities in the valleys to the north. The social and economic damage inflicted on the region by the mass pit closures of the 1980s were mitigated in Bridgend by the creation of new manufacturing jobs, notably at the Ford engine plant at Waterton. Nevertheless, pockets of deprivation persist in urban Bridgend and the surrounding settlements, and unemployment remains higher than national and UK averages. Since the late 1990s Bridgend County Borough Council (BCBC) has been intensifying its efforts to enhance the townscape and increase economic activity. The initiatives of the council and its partner organisations demonstrate the crucial role historic building conservation can play in local economic regeneration. Regenerating the historic town centre As in many other British towns, the town centre shops in Bridgend have increasingly had to compete with new, out-of-town retail complexes and some have inevitably fallen by the wayside. Unsympathetic or poorly coordinated shop and streetscape design also took their toll as the town quickly expanded in the 1970s and 80s. The western area of the town centre abutting the River Ogmore contains a solid core of buildings of architectural and historic importance, and many are listed. Dunraven Place includes a terrace of early 19th-century houses listed for their group value. Unfortunately, here and on many other historic buildings in the town, architectural features of particular interest such as balustrades and ornamental urns, had been lost over the years, perhaps as they had proved challenging to maintain. The main shopping street showed the classic signs of shopkeepers competing with each other at the expense of the quality of the street as a whole. Fascias were invariably large and garish, and the traditional details had been stripped out. In 1997 BCBC began working with the Welsh Development Agency and local organisations to regenerate the town centre. After a feasibility study and extensive public consultation, Bridgend Town Centre Conservation Area was designated by the council in 1999. The Bridgend Townscape Heritage Initiative (THI) was launched in 2005 and the THI officer, Sue Tomlinson, was appointed shortly after its launch. The THI is a partnership of the Heritage Lottery Fund, BCBC, Cadw and the Welsh Assembly Government. Its principal objectives have been to improve the physical condition of the town’s built heritage and to increase public awareness of its value, focussing on the town’s historic core around Dunraven Place. By targeting grant aid at vacant buildings in the THI area, the initiative has also stimulated private sector investment in the town centre, laying the foundations for continued economic growth. The regeneration initiative was primed by repaving Dunraven Place, introducing a new lighting scheme, stripping out the clutter of street furniture, and by pedestrianising a short section which formed a cul-desac. The 15th century bridge over the river, which is now a scheduled monument, was repaired, and a The restored footbridge over the Ogmore River (Afon Ogwr), leading to Dunraven Place The Davies Building, on the corner of Caroline Street and Dunraven Place, is a typical example of fine but neglected Victorian architecture, disfigured by an ugly shopfront and fascia.

80's young artist, human shape object creator, graduated from the Mural Painting Department of Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts in 2008, living in Chengdu, China now.
The doll is famous by its vivid and delicate appearance, after three years of modification of the Elfishbabydoll, which was made in 2011, for now renamed (Jacoo Sun Doll). In 2008, she transformed the little girl in oil paintings and works on papers into a boll jointed movable doll "JSD elf doll". In 2011, her new Elf Doll, Jacoo Sun Doll is born. In 6 years, she has created nearly 40 elf doll, which have been loved and sought really much by collectors. In 2015, Sun Dongxu was invited by Zhou Xun to attend the "One Night 敢爱敢行" charity event. Her two JSD elf doll were participated in the charity auctions, in total of 35000 yuan of auctions was donated.
In 2008, when Jaco was an author, she tried to transform the little girl in her oil painting into a ball jointed doll. It was not easy to do that；the most difficult part was turning the two-dimensional into the three-dimensional.
After learning from books of anatomy and studying the human body structure, and combining her own body structural features, the first ball jointed doll was born. After 3 years of redesigning and remodeling, in 2011, Jacoo's elf doll 'Jacoo Sun Doll' came out. Since then, our 'creator' has been producing a super movable doll, about 50cm in height.
While many artists use 3D modeling to make dolls, Jaco still insists on hand-carving, insizing and adjusting every detail of her doll. In 2018, the KUKUMATA ball jointed PVC doll was born.
The JACOOSUN Dolls have accompanied Jaco through a long and arduous journey. Although they are only dolls created by Jaco, they let the her understand the meaning of life. It is to use your talent that the God has given to you, and to do the greatest work in the world.
I was just an ordinary artist, doing the work that others do, and I became a craftsman. Insizing carefully each piece of my work, letting the work touch myself, becoming the one who finds emotion in my work, that is the meaning of my life.
Motto: Everything is spiritual and remarkable with a heart.
Sun Dongxu started to create the Jacoo Sun's elf doll in 2008, her original intention is to let more people in this world find their own "elf" who can be gentle with you at any time and any place. For many years, the Jacoo Sun elf doll has accompanied its creator and many of its owners to reach all corners of the world: climbing over mountains, diving into the deep sea, galloping across the desert, crossing the ice fields...nonstop. Both themselves and the dolls have left a unique mark in the process of understanding this world, follow your inner pursuit. More importantly, we want to pay tribute to those "Accompanies", to those long poems left deeply in our souls.
The name of JACOO SUN comes from the English name of the author-Sun Dongxu-JACOO SUN, the original name of the ball jointed doll ELFISHBABY was changed in 2017. The ELFISHBABY was born in Guangzhou in 2008, later it was called the boll jointed doll. The first boll jointed doll was born in 2011, after 3 years of redesign and modification, it was released in 2014. In 2016 officially entered the Japanese, European and American markets.

Through more than ten years of continuous perception of the world, we are convinced that designing is to give a doll life or to let them carry their own future. The beginning of design is the beginning of emotion, the initial breath of everything. Therefore, we got accompany of the vitality. We must let the vitality to jump and run on each doll, as to give our life more unexpected, more exciting, more magical things.

Hybrid vehicles will impact industry
Everyone wants to cut costs, and with fuel prices creeping inexorably upward, everyone wants engines and power trains that use less fuel, or different, cheaper fuel.
But cost alone isn’t the only factor driving researchers around the world. The spectre of global climate change has most people worried. The debate over “peak oil,” the time when we reach maximum possible supply and fall into an unstoppable decline, is also a spur for researchers and those who finance their work.
And, as has so often been the case in the past, we might be able to find some of our answers by looking to the military — specifically the U.S. military, which is the world’s biggest single consumer of oil.
The U.S. military burns as much oil in six days as all of Canada does in a day. They’re burning more than 400,000 barrels every day, and they’re worried. It’s no wonder their planners are developing of hybrid diesel-electric armoured vehicles, and they have enlisted the military in Europe and Scandinavia to work with them.
What’s being worked on are two types of hybrid: the parallel hybrid and the series hybrid.
The parallel hybrid has electric and diesel motors that reinforce each other, with the electric motor kicking in at low rpm and when standing. The diesel takes over at higher rpm. These vehicles still have both a driveshaft and a differential gear.
Series hybrids uses a diesel engine simply to run an electric generator, which is connected to electric motors that actually run the vehicle. They can be arranged in either of two configurations. In one, there are two motors for each axle; in the other, there is one in each wheel hub.
Both versions use less fuel than conventional internal combustion engines. They pollute less, and cost more.
But armoured vehicles are not the military’s only concern. This month, the U.S. air force began evaluating the six heavy hybrid trucks. Two are being used as tenders for refueling aircraft; two are being used for trash collection, and two are dump trucks.
Part of this project is an evaluation of a third hybrid technology — the hydraulic drive.
This is somewhat more specialized than other gasoline- or diesel-electric hybrids, and seems to work better on heavier vehicles and in stop-and-go traffic. It’s a system that recovers energy when braking by engaging a pump, turned by the wheels. The pump powers hydraulic pistons to pressurize nitrogen gas contained in a high-pressure tank. The energy thus stored is then used by allowing it to flow back through the pump, transforming it temporarily into a drive motor directing power to the wheels.
This is an engine that can store and deliver huge amounts of energy quickly, more quickly than battery systems. And its storage ability doesn’t diminish over time, which is a fact of life with present battery technology.
All this work is something the construction industry should watch closely. The U.S. air force project is important because the air force operates thousands of pieces of equipment — trucks, tractors, earth movers, graders, loaders — everything needed to support its operations.
The work is being done in conjunction with Mack Trucks, part of the Swedish Volvo Group, which is also involved in heavy equipment for the construction and mining industries. Volvo believes the technology will be mature enough by 2009 to offer it for sale commercially. The equipment will cost more, but the company believes the forecast fuel savings of up to 35 per cent will be enough to offset the cost of the hybrid components.
There are so many different technologies being developed in so many fields now that there is no such thing as one size that fits all. The people charged with writing the specs when a company decides to buy new equipment will have a whole new vocabulary to learn, and will have to be much more careful in their product comparisons.
The result, though, ought to be equipment that works better, more cheaply, and in a fashion that is much more friendly to the environment.
