Town bans election posters on main street
A TOWN famous for its annual political talk shop has ‘banned’ election posters.
Glenties in Co Donegal is the venue every summer for the Patrick MacGill Summer School.
Cabinet Ministers and opposition leaders give keynote speeches on the future of Ireland.
But for the next three weeks all political election posters have been effectively banned from the town’s main street.
It follows a meeting of the Glenties Community Development Group.
Secretary Richard Quigley says he wrote to every candidate last week asking them to respect their decision to ban posters from inside the town’s limits.
“Glenties has a proud tradition as a tidy town and each year countless hours of hard work and endeavour, not to mention a lot of money, goes into keeping the town looking in the best possible condition all year round,” he said.
“We as a committee felt that the erecting of election posters is an unsightly practice particularly in a town such as Glenties with its ornate street fixings and floral displays.”
He said that in previous elections posters have not been taken down within the allotted time and some left to “fall down and lie in ditches whilst the eternal problem of discarded cable ties meant lots of sweeping for the towns hard working volunteers”.
However last night Fianna Fail posters were erected on the Narin Road in the town – inside the 5okm/h zone which the group had asked to be respected.
The group says it had been in contact with the party to have the posters featuring Micheal Martin removed.
“We feel that this is a reasonable request given the hard work that goes into keeping Glenties looking as wonderful as it does all through the year,” said Mr Quigley.
"We've been in touch with Fianna Fail to ask them to remove the posters as soon as possible and respect the wishes of the people of the town."

FORT ERIE, ONT.—Cuts, closures and deadly outbreaks at hospitals in the Niagara region are symptomatic of a health system in crisis, Ontario’s NDP leader said Saturday, supported by the family who believes their daughter might be alive if the local emergency room was still open.
Andrea Horwath trekked to Fort Erie, where she pledged to reopen the emergency rooms at two area hospitals in a region hard hit by hospital cuts and a recent C. difficile outbreak that killed 33 people.
Area residents have been fighting for years to reverse hospital service reductions and closures, and say the story of Reilly Anzovino is a tragedy they believe may not have happened just months earlier, when the local emergency room was still open.
The 18-year-old died after a car crash in December 2009 when her ambulance had to travel 20 kilometres to a hospital because Fort Erie’s ER was closed.
Anzovino’s family called for a coroner’s inquest, believing her life may have been saved if she had received help in Fort Erie, five kilometres closer. The coroner’s office will conduct an inquest, but no date is scheduled yet.
Anzovino’s death should be raising alarm bells about health care cuts, said Horwath.
“Reilly Anzovino was one example of the tragedy that occurs when you take away people’s access to health care,” she said.
The family was at Horwath’s campaign announcement, though they did not want to speak publicly due to the impending inquest.
The NDP said it would cost $10 million annually to reopen the emergency rooms at the Douglas Memorial Hospital in Fort Erie, Ont., and in Port Colborne, Ont. Some of the funds to pay for the emergency rooms would come from the NDP’s promise to cut the pay of hospital CEOs, the party said.
Anzovino’s death came just months after the two ERs were closed and replaced with urgent care centres.
Wayne Redekop, the NDP candidate for the Niagara Falls riding — who is also the lawyer for the Anzovino family at the inquest — said the young woman’s death is just one of many incidents and factors creating anxiety in the community.
“Ever since the (Health) Services Restructuring Commission recommended the amalgamation of all the hospitals in Niagara except Grimsby, this has been a continuous fight for the people of Fort Erie because we’ve gradually seen services reduced and eliminated,” he said.
“We have a community of 30,000 people on one of the busiest border crossings between Canada and the United States, with an influx of between 10,000 and 12,000 Americans each summer . . . and we have essentially no hospital. It doesn’t make any sense.”
The province appointed a supervisor in August to take over full power of the Niagara Health System, but Horwath said it came too late.
“People have lost complete confidence in the Niagara Health System,” she said. “The patients have not had their needs met and they don’t trust anything that the government’s going to do anymore.”
The C. difficile outbreak saw 33 deaths at several hospitals across the Niagara Health System.
Elizabeth Rout said her husband was hospitalized for lung cancer, but she believes he contracted C. difficile and that hastened his death. She attended Horwath’s announcement Saturday and said something has to change in the Niagara Health System.
“People have died trying to get to a hospital down here and we deserve a better health care system than that,” she said.
Horwath said the outbreak wasn’t surprising considering service reductions, cutbacks on nursing care, overcrowding at area hospitals that do have open emergency rooms, and fewer cleaning resources. But, she added, Niagara isn’t the only place with problems at its hospitals.
“Ontario is the worst across the country in terms of hospital backlogs and that’s not just this region, that’s across the province,” said Horwath. “Our health care system is in a bit of a crisis.”
Horwath was the only one of the three major party leaders to be campaigning Saturday. Premier Dalton McGuinty and Progressive Conservative Leader Tim Hudak took the day off.
The Liberals would not comment on the issue.
George Lepp, the Conservative candidate in Niagara Falls, said his party has committed to reopening the Fort Erie ER, but not the Port Colborne emergency room.
“Our fight will be to continue to improve health care across the region,” he said. “We have a real sad state in the health services area here in Niagara.”

LONDON (Reuters) - The country’s largest dairy farmer co-operative reported a loss for the 2008/09 financial year on Friday and said it had dipped into reserves to shelter members from a market downturn.
First Milk, based in Paisley, Scotland, reported an after-tax loss of 7.1 million pounds for the year ended March 31, with group turnover declining by three percent to 582 million pounds.
The company cited a decrease in returns for milk powder, cheese and whey in the second half of the year.
“As we have seen from the results of others who operate in the UK dairy sector, 2008/09 was a year of challenges and volatility,” chief executive Peter Humphreys said.
Another dairy co-operative, Dairy Farmers of Britain (DFOB), was put into receivership in early June, as a global slump in dairy markets helped to cut milk prices.
The slump has sparked farmer protests in several European countries and EU farm ministers are holding an extraordinary meeting on October 5 to discuss the crisis.
“Recognising that rising on-farm costs were putting serious financial pressure on our producers, as a board we took the decision in late 2008 to utilise the reserves we had built up in order to shelter members as much as possible from the market downturn,” Humphreys said in a statement.
The number of dairy farmers in Britain has halved in the last decade due to low prices and negative profit margins, turning the country into a liquid milk importer.
“We can’t ignore these results but I think they have to be taken in a global context which has seen the world facing a very tough economic climate,” said Gwyn Jones, chairman of the National Farmers’ Union dairy board.
“The dairy sector itself has experienced incredible market volatility which is here to stay and which dairy farmers and milk buyers must start to manage,” he added in a statement.

If the steepest climbs of your training loops seem malicious, it’s likely that Iceland offers something still more severe.
Tom Donhou, a frame builder of impressive pedigree, and a rider whose attempt at the landspeed record for bicycles saw him ride at 80mph in unnerving proximity to the bumper of MK3 Ford Zephyr operating as a mobile windbreak, was forced twice to dismount on a recent odyssey across Iceland’s frequently rugged and barren interior.
The second offering in Donhou Bicycle’s Signature Steel collection of off-the-peg steel steeds offers a broad field of endeavour for a builder who has rapidly built a reputation as one of Britain's finest. At the heart of the DSS2 is a Reynolds 853 chassis: a seamless, air-hardened tubeset, light and strong, mated to a Wound Up carbon filament fork.
“With the larger clearance bikes you have more to think about. You’ve got more to squeeze in and you want the bike to do a bit more,” Donhou says, speaking in the matter-of-fact tone in which he discusses all his creations, from the bike constructed for Rapha’s Continental project in 2012 to the recent and exquisite collaboration with Simon Mottram’s firm and Liberty.
In fact, the Continental bike can be seen as a progenitor for the SS2. Donhou speaks with justifiable pride at the trend-setting nature of a bike that propelled him, if not into the mainstream, for this will surely never be the Donhou way, then at least before a wider audience of connoisseurs.
“We were putting discs on bikes before you’d see them anywhere else. And road bikes with more clearance; we were doing that too. Now you’re seeing quite a lot more of it. “
Measured. Even. There is nothing boastful about Donhou’s pronouncement. He is merely stating a fact. He is similarly matter-of-fact about another development from road cycling’s left field, embraced for the DSS2: the 1x11 drivetrain.
Pioneered by SRAM and now de rigueur for serious mountain bike riders, the single chainwheel solution, paired with a cassette expanding to dinner plate-like diameters for the off-road set, is an option for the DSS2.
Donhou concedes that it is not a set-up for everyone, thus the second SS bike will also accommodate conventional double and even triple chainwheel set-ups. The latter might have proved useful in Iceland.
“We were on a double when we were riding through Iceland, and that was a mixture of tarmac, hardpack, loose surface, rocky tracks. I had to get off and push twice up a couple of 15 per cent climbs, and I had a 32 on the back. Ideally, we would have wanted a triple for something like that.
“If you’re heavily loaded, it [the DSS2] will take a triple. For more ordinary road riding, it will take a double, and if you want to go for the single, it will take that as well, but it isn’t for everyone: you definitely don’t get as wide a spread of gears, or even as close a spread of gears.”
Donhou does not subscribe to fads. Instead, he uses different technologies where appropriate. On disc brakes, heralded either as a universal panacea or the devil’s work, he is refreshingly balanced.
“I grew up racing mountain bikes, so to start putting discs on these kind of…” he gropes for the latest industry trope – “I guess they were ‘all-road bikes’, before you were seeing ‘all-road bikes’.
“For me, to put discs on a bike that was intended to be used predominantly on tarmac, but in all seasons, in all weather, and where part of the brief was that there may be some bridleways, just made complete sense.
“You get more ‘usable’ braking power; much more comfortable braking power. When you’re in the saddle all day, doing long rides, and you’re descending, you don’t want to be hanging on your brakes. You want your brakes there for you without conjuring up a lot of effort to use them. That’s where the discs, for me, really work, and I build a lot of those sort of bikes.
“I think in a race situation where ultimate braking power isn’t quite so critical [and weight is] maybe caliper brakes are still the way to go. In my mind, I wouldn’t build myself a bike without disc brakes.”
One of the many pleasurable aspects of sourcing a machine from a small scale builder is the network that the buyer enters, if only by proxy. The wheels are built by Gavin Buxton, aka August Wheelworks, an old friend of Donhou.The DSS2 in standard trim rolls on Pacenti SL25 rims, a platform to which it’s possible to mount a 35c tyre, laced to Hope hubs.
Donhou is at pains to stress that bespoke specifications are available even within this off-the-peg Signature Steel range. It is one of the things he enjoys most about the platform.
“I love the custom builds, but with the Signature Steel, they’re basically my custom builds, if you know what I mean; kind of what I build myself. It’s also a case of wanting to offer usable bikes to people and making it a bit easier than waiting a year for a custom frame. It’s just growing and making Donhou Bikes more accessible to more people."

A point of information: I’ve never watched an episode of THE TWILIGHT ZONE all the way through. The ZONE, of course, is before my time–I was born in 1967, four years after the show went off the air. However, many of my fandom and writer contemporaries grew up watching the show on reruns. Channel 50 out of Detroit was a favorite. Up in middle-of-nowhere, Michigan, we had no syndication station. I spent my childhood in blissful ignorance of Rod Serling, STAR TREK, DOCTOR WHO, and just about every other rerun show.
Anyway, I somehow limped along. You can’t spend as much time in the SF crowd as I have without picking up ZONE stuff by osmosis, and I became slowly aware of the more popular episodes: the one with the guy who liked to read; the Talky Tina doll; the aliens who served man; Rod Serling’s over-the-top narration. But I still never watched an entire episode.
Recently I learned THE TWILIGHT ZONE original episodes are available on Netflix for streaming. Well! I added them to my queue and started in. I’ve gotten halfway through first season and now I’m highly qualified for some commentary.
This is absolutely a period piece. It’s quite charming to watch 1959 brought to life (though I usually think to myself, “Goodness, I wonder how many of these actors are dead”) and see the furniture, hairstyles (the men ALL have exactly the same haircut–barbers must have been bored out of their minds), the cars, even the food choices. And wow! Everybody smokes! It’s a little jarring looking at this from an age when smoking is a factor in an R rating. People smoke in restaurants, in cars with their kids, in hospital beds, in alleys, and on sidewalks. Men offer to light each other’s cigarettes and hold each other’s wrists to steady the match without a hint of homoeroticism (well, perhaps a teeny one).
Most of the material hasn’t aged well, though. Rod Serling was making social commentary, and the most concerns of 1959 are quite different from those of 2016. Yes, we worry about the government, but not in the way Serling did. The ZONE also chews over mass destruction (nuclear war), whereas we seem preoccupied with death by zombies. The magical stranger is another fixture–an odd individual who only one character can see or who manages to disappear before anyone else arrives on the scene. A variation of this theme is the magical peddlar or tinker. The ZONE has multiple episodes with the odd little man who carries around a suitcase and sells strange things or offers you oddities you probably don’t want. I’d forgotten about the traveling peddler. In modern days, he’s been replaced by the TV pitchman.
Another recurring theme is, “It’s us all along!” Many episodes put humans into strange situations, and the twist at the end is that they’ve been in familiar surroundings all along and didn’t know it, or they turn out to be aliens, and we viewers have been duped into thinking they were human.
The show is so far very bleak. No one gets a happy ending. Protagonists come to an awful end. Only rarely do we get a happy ending, and even those lean toward the mixed blessing variety. As an example of the latter, a family escapes nuclear holocaust in a recently-developed space ship and we find out at the last minute that they’re planning to live on Earth (surprise! aliens in human form!), with the implicit message that they’re carrying the seeds of humanity’s eventual destruction. Twice Serling ends a show by having a troubled character escape their problems forever by jumping into a TV or movie screen, never to return. Mixed blessing.
I’m sure that when the show first aired, the many plot twists were exciting and brand new, but at this point I take a fair amount of amusement by seeing how fast I can call out the ending. “They’re on Earth already!” I shout. Or, “The robot’s going to die!” Or, “He’ll be forced to make a sales pitch to Death!” Two flaws in the show (so far) are that they have no comic relief in them whatever to break the relentless bleakness (maybe we’ll get some later as the show matures), and second, there are never any subplots. (Yes, the show is only half an hour long, but FRIENDS manages to work in three stories per episode, as a counterexample.)
Some of the episodes draaaaaaaagggggggg. Many scenes could be shortened, and the extra time used for a subplot or two. Is this a matter of modern taste? TV shows made in a time when life was slower have slower pacing? Maybe. But I find I can often pop the stream forward a few minutes and miss nothing important.
It’s always fun to watch the end credits and see if a familiar name pops up. Was Burgess Meredeth EVER a young man? And is that really Jack Klugman? Holy cow–Claude Akins! And it’s also fun to Google unfamiliar names to see what happened to the others. This one retired from acting in the 60s and still sells real estate. That one acted for many years in a long string of small roles but never made it big. This other dropped out of sight and no one knows where he is.
The show is itself a form of time travel. I’m actually glad I’m watching it for the first time as an adult. It’s more fun to look at it through the lens of an historian and media person than as an SF fan, to tell the truth.

Coupling between protrusion dynamics and polarized trafficking steers persistent cell migration.
Migrating cells present a variety of paths, from non-persistent random walks to highly directional trajectories. While random movement can be easily explained by an intrinsic basal activity of the cell, persistent movement requires the cell to be stably polarized. It remains unclear how this is achieved from the regulation of underlying subcellular processes. In the context of mesenchymal migration, the ability of cells to migrate persistently over several hours require a mechanism stabilizing their protruding activity at their front. Here, we address this mechanism using human RPE1 cell line as our model. We measure, manipulate, and quantitatively perturb cell protrusive activity of the cortex as well as intracellular organization of the endomembrane trafficking system using dynamic micropatterning, pharmacological and trafficking assays, optogenetics and live-cell imaging with tracking. First, we demonstrate that the Nucleus-Golgi axis aligns with the direction of migration and its alignment with the protrusive activity leads to efficient cell movement. Then, using low doses of Nocodazole to disrupt internal cell organization, we show that long-lived polarity breaks down and migration becomes random. Next, we indicate that a flow of vesicles is directed towards the protrusive activity with a delay of 20 min. Eventually, by applying a sustained optogenetic activation, we prove that a localized Cdc42 gradient is able to orient the Nucleus-Golgi axis over a couple of hours. Taken together, our results suggest that the internal polarity axis, provided by the polarized trafficking of vesicles, is stabilizing the protrusive activity of the cell, while the protrusive activity biases this polarity axis. Using a novel minimal physical model, we show that this feedback is sufficient by itself to recapitulate the quantitative properties of cell migration in the timescale of hours. Our work highlights the importance of the coupling between high-level cellular functions in stabilizing the direction of migration over long timescales.
Transient Activations of Rac1 at the Lamellipodium Tip Trigger Membrane Protrusion.
The spatiotemporal coordination of actin regulators in the lamellipodium determines the dynamics and architecture of branched F-actin networks during cell migration. The WAVE regulatory complex (WRC), an effector of Rac1 during cell protrusion, is concentrated at the lamellipodium tip. Thus, activated Rac1 should operate at this location to activate WRC and trigger membrane protrusion. Yet correlation of Rho GTPase activation with cycles of membrane protrusion previously revealed complex spatiotemporal patterns of Rac1 and RhoA activation in the lamellipodium. Combining single protein tracking (SPT) and super-resolution imaging with loss- or gain-of-function mutants of Rho GTPases, we show that Rac1 immobilizations at the lamellipodium tip correlate with its activation, in contrast to RhoA. Using Rac1 effector loop mutants and wild-type versus mutant variants of WRC, we show that selective immobilizations of activated Rac1 at the lamellipodium tip depend on effector binding, including WRC. In contrast, wild-type Rac1 only displays slower diffusion at the lamellipodium tip, suggesting transient activations. Local optogenetic activation of Rac1, triggered by membrane recruitment of Tiam1, shows that Rac1 activation must occur close to the lamellipodium tip and not behind the lamellipodium to trigger efficient membrane protrusion. However, coupling tracking with optogenetic activation of Rac1 demonstrates that diffusive properties of wild-type Rac1 are unchanged despite enhanced lamellipodium protrusion. Taken together, our results support a model whereby transient activations of Rac1 occurring close to the lamellipodium tip trigger WRC binding. This short-lived activation ensures a local and rapid control of Rac1 actions on its effectors to trigger actin-based protrusion.
Perspectives of RAS and RHEB GTPase Signaling Pathways in Regenerating Brain Neurons.
Cellular activation of RAS GTPases into the GTP-binding "ON" state is a key switch for regulating brain functions. Molecular protein structural elements of rat sarcoma (RAS) and RAS homolog protein enriched in brain (RHEB) GTPases involved in this switch are discussed including their subcellular membrane localization for triggering specific signaling pathways resulting in regulation of synaptic connectivity, axonal growth, differentiation, migration, cytoskeletal dynamics, neural protection, and apoptosis. A beneficial role of neuronal H-RAS activity is suggested from cellular and animal models of neurodegenerative diseases. Recent experiments on optogenetic regulation offer insights into the spatiotemporal aspects controlling RAS/mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) or phosphoinositide-3 kinase (PI3K) pathways. As optogenetic manipulation of cellular signaling in deep brain regions critically requires penetration of light through large distances of absorbing tissue, we discuss magnetic guidance of re-growing axons as a complementary approach. In Parkinson's disease, dopaminergic neuronal cell bodies degenerate in the substantia nigra. Current human trials of stem cell-derived dopaminergic neurons must take into account the inability of neuronal axons navigating over a large distance from the grafted site into striatal target regions. Grafting dopaminergic precursor neurons directly into the degenerating substantia nigra is discussed as a novel concept aiming to guide axonal growth by activating GTPase signaling through protein-functionalized intracellular magnetic nanoparticles responding to external magnets.
Optogenetic dissection of Rac1 and Cdc42 gradient shaping.
During cell migration, Rho GTPases spontaneously form spatial gradients that define the front and back of cells. At the front, active Cdc42 forms a steep gradient whereas active Rac1 forms a more extended pattern peaking a few microns away. What are the mechanisms shaping these gradients, and what is the functional role of the shape of these gradients? Here we report, using a combination of optogenetics and micropatterning, that Cdc42 and Rac1 gradients are set by spatial patterns of activators and deactivators and not directly by transport mechanisms. Cdc42 simply follows the distribution of Guanine nucleotide Exchange Factors, whereas Rac1 shaping requires the activity of a GTPase-Activating Protein, β2-chimaerin, which is sharply localized at the tip of the cell through feedbacks from Cdc42 and Rac1. Functionally, the spatial extent of Rho GTPases gradients governs cell migration, a sharp Cdc42 gradient maximizes directionality while an extended Rac1 gradient controls the speed.
RalB directly triggers invasion downstream Ras by mobilizing the Wave complex.
The two Ral GTPases, RalA and RalB, have crucial roles downstream Ras oncoproteins in human cancers; in particular, RalB is involved in invasion and metastasis. However, therapies targeting Ral signalling are not available yet. By a novel optogenetic approach, we found that light-controlled activation of Ral at plasma-membrane promotes the recruitment of the Wave Regulatory Complex (WRC) via its effector exocyst, with consequent induction of protrusions and invasion. We show that active Ras signals to RalB via two RalGEFs (Guanine nucleotide Exchange Factors), RGL1 and RGL2, to foster invasiveness; RalB contribution appears to be more important than that of MAPK and PI3K pathways. Moreover, on the clinical side, we uncovered a potential role of RalB in human breast cancers by determining that RalB expression at protein level increases in a manner consistent with progression toward metastasis. This work highlights the Ras-RGL1/2-RalB-exocyst-WRC axis as appealing target for novel anti-cancer strategies.
Gradients of Rac1 Nanoclusters Support Spatial Patterns of Rac1 Signaling.
Rac1 is a small RhoGTPase switch that orchestrates actin branching in space and time and protrusion/retraction cycles of the lamellipodia at the cell front during mesenchymal migration. Biosensor imaging has revealed a graded concentration of active GTP-loaded Rac1 in protruding regions of the cell. Here, using single-molecule imaging and super-resolution microscopy, we show an additional supramolecular organization of Rac1. We find that Rac1 partitions and is immobilized into nanoclusters of 50-100 molecules each. These nanoclusters assemble because of the interaction of the polybasic tail of Rac1 with the phosphoinositide lipids PIP2 and PIP3. The additional interactions with GEFs and possibly GAPs, downstream effectors, and other partners are responsible for an enrichment of Rac1 nanoclusters in protruding regions of the cell. Our results show that subcellular patterns of Rac1 activity are supported by gradients of signaling nanodomains of heterogeneous molecular composition, which presumably act as discrete signaling platforms.
Predictive Spatiotemporal Manipulation of Signaling Perturbations Using Optogenetics.
Recently developed optogenetic methods promise to revolutionize cell biology by allowing signaling perturbations to be controlled in space and time with light. However, a quantitative analysis of the relationship between a custom-defined illumination pattern and the resulting signaling perturbation is lacking. Here, we characterize the biophysical processes governing the localized recruitment of the Cryptochrome CRY2 to its membrane-anchored CIBN partner. We develop a quantitative framework and present simple procedures that enable predictive manipulation of protein distributions on the plasma membrane with a spatial resolution of 5 μm. We show that protein gradients of desired levels can be established in a few tens of seconds and then steadily maintained. These protein gradients can be entirely relocalized in a few minutes. We apply our approach to the control of the Cdc42 Rho GTPase activity. By inducing strong localized signaling perturbation, we are able to monitor the initiation of cell polarity and migration with a remarkable reproducibility despite cell-to-cell variability.

Croatian Coastal Licence "B Licence
As Coastal patent is the name given to boat licences in Croatia. There are the patents Boat Skipper A, B and C and Yachtmaster A. The designation is misleading in that in most countries the term "patent" is used almost exclusively for certificates of competency in professional navigation.
In Croatia, driving licences are compulsory for all boats and ships with a motor.
In principle, there is no international agreement on coastal patents. Croatia is a member of the International Maritime Organisation (IMO). There are agreements between all Mediterranean states on the recognition of boatmasters' licences. Training and examinations are coordinated among the members of the organisation.

Movie Review – The Lego Movie (2014)
After a completely dismal January the release of The Lego Movie represents a breath of fresh air, easily claiming the moniker of the best movie of the New Year. With a highly charged blistering pace and more jokes crammed into every frame than one can count, the movie clearly flies on sheer audaciousness by utilizing nearly every action/adventure trope imaginable and then proceeding to turn them on their heads. Directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller have crafted an almost drug-inducing visual chaos with vivid bright colours seemingly slamming viewers in the face at every turn but they also manage to properly lace the narrative with some seriously emotional subtext.
Emmet Brickowoski (Chris Pratt) is a regular Lego construction worker minifigure, one of the many upstanding citizens of Bricksberg who lives his life according to “the instructions,” a series of step-by-step manuals that teach everyone anything from lessons on what to do after waking up to how to properly drive cars. Everything in this fair city are products of Octan Corporation and its owner and Mayor (for life), President Business (Will Ferrell). Everyone in Bricksberg is summarily happy and content, going about the day singing an infectious tune named, “Everything is awesome,” while debating the finer dramatic moments of the hit sitcom, “Where Are My Pants?”
However, Emmet’s life takes a turn for the bizarre when he one day confronts Wyldstyle (Elizabeth Banks), a downright beautiful, female minifigure who immediately identifies him as “the special” due to the fact that he somehow managed to get a mysterious red Lego square stuck to his back. It turns out that there is a long standing prophecy about “the special,” a powerful and knowledgeable master Lego figure that will one day break the evil Lord Business’ rule over the entire land.
Emmet is not so convinced that he is the prophecy of legend but with Wyldstyle at his side, the duo take off on a grand adventure that takes him to lands that he never once would have imagined existed. Along the way the duo meet up with Vitruvius (Morgan Freeman), a supposedly wise but blind mentor and a cacophony of Lego minifgures from Batman (Will Arnett) and Superman (Channing Tatum) to ones like Shakespeare and Abraham Lincoln.
The Lego Movie is visually a giant feast for the eyes as directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller have made the ingenious decision to make the film really feel like stop motion photography while at the same time compelling their Lego characters to mostly obey the laws of physics. Anyone who has kids and has seen the many previously released Lego movies and TV shows like The Adventures of Clutch Powers, Ninjago or the newer Chima, understands that they all are fully CG productions and that, most importantly, the animators regularly force their characters to bend, flex and emote in ways that no physically real Lego figure can ever imagine.
Not so here in The Lego Movie as every character as well as vehicle only animates based on their plastic form. That means that the characters like Emmet don’t have arm or leg movements that laterally go out from their sides and that Lego horses which, have no real joints, merely trot forward up and down exactly as if a child were holding it and pretending to gallop.
Concurrently, the filmmakers extend the world’s consistency to the environmental effects themselves meaning that explosions, fires, and laser beams are all rendered as if they were built with individual physical Lego pieces, an effect that can be downright awesome such as the visually arresting sight of a vast roiling Lego ocean that has to be seen to be believed.
It’s a simple yet ingenious decision that really connects viewers, especially those who love Lego, with what is going on and it will immediately endear itself to fans. Make no mistake, this is purposely done to evoke warm feelings of nostalgia from the audience and many are just going to squeal with delight when they recognize that the entire world in the movie is built using the correct Lego bricks. There are points in the narrative where the film switches to a certain character’s point of view and the audience can see the individual pieces and their part numbers appear that mirrors what many Lego fans go through on a daily basis as they attempt to craft their own creations.
The film also manages to include many Lego licensed products released over the past few decades with a ton of hilarious cameo appearances and its environments are, not only teeming with life but are often downright staggering in their depiction. From the dusty confines of a rambunctious saloon in the American Wild West to the absolutely saccharine-laced “Cloud Cuckoo Land” that is a great visual example of a psychedelic Hello Kitty world, the film never fails to impress.
There are times when The Lego Movie feels almost like a giant meta experience as this is a film that so blatantly advertises itself to sell more merchandise but unlike lesser similar films like the abysmal Battleship, G.I. Joe or Michael Bay’s Transformers, I presume many will not blanch at the thought of leaving the cinema and immediately buying every Lego Movie set at the local toy store. This is because the filmmakers completely understand and internalize the very reasons why people fall in love with Lego in the first place and they successfully seed these elements within the movie itself.
At its most basic level, The Lego Movie in no way features an original plot and the entire prophecy angle that casts Emmet as the savior has obviously be done a billion times before. In fact the movie really feels like a Lego version of the Wachowski’s The Matrix right down to having a wise sage figure that spouts haughty-sounding advice at every turn. Even the themes that the film expounds are not in any way unique but what does work is how the filmmakers present them. At its heart The Lego Movie is about conformity versus creativity but instead of merely bludgeoning the audience with its intended message at every turn, the film hides most of its sermonizing well until a totally U-turn inducing third act.
It is at this point that, The Lego Movie, stops mimicking The Matrix and instead launches directly into The Sixth Sense territory with a completely bold move that will leave most of the audience reeling. However, much like M. Night Shyamalan’s classic, this massive twist is actually easy to spot if one is seriously paying attention to many visual clues that are sprinkled throughout the film but its reveal is still truly impactful.
This twist essentially splits the movie into two parts and though many will understand why it is constructed as is, there are some that might feel it is superfluous. I suspect that those who are enthralled by this ending sequence will immediately relate what occurs to their own personal lives. In a way the final sequence achieves the same level of emotional resonance as the short prologue that starts Pixar’s Up as the tone is markedly different than the rest of the film. In this case, The Lego Movie inverts the structure and places the sequence right in the final reel and it will seriously tug at your heartstrings.
Nevertheless, though the movie is wholly inventive it does have some pacing issues, the most prescient of which lies in an altogether bloated second act. While fans will no doubt love watching all the various Lego creations the film could easily have benefited from some editing tweaks as the entire spectacle begins to lose steam as the heroes jump from world to world. In an ironic twist the film’s blistering pace actually begins to feel mundane the longer the film plays and one gets the impression that directors Phil Lord & Christopher Miller’s tactic to utilize everything and the kitchen sink begins to misfire more than hit. Thankfully, the third act kicks in and the aforementioned twist manages to re-energize the production again so that it concludes on an emotional high.
The Lego Movie is the perfect example of a film that has four-quadrant appeal as both genders and all age groups will find something that speaks specifically to them. Kids will revel in the visual chaos and the silly physical jokes but adults will find even more to latch on to, especially those who played with Lego in their childhood years. In some ways, the film feels very much like the very best episodes of The Simpsons or Futurama, not in terms of plot but in the way they packed each frame with so much background detail that was simply hilarious in its own right. The Lego Movie is so visually rich that it will take multiple repeat viewings just to notice all the included jokes and homages that regularly poke fun and occasionally eviscerate certain cultural icons.
The Lego Movie is the perfect example of how to craft a film based on an existing IP as it plays to the strengths which made the product such a worldwide phenomenon and it does it in a way that, though manic, is amazingly inspired. Some of the jokes don’t exactly work but there’s so many of them that the chances are high that most will cause more than a laugh or two.
In a way, The Lego Movie is a real kick to the pants in terms of traditional Hollywood animated films that have settled in to a kind of rote style of filmmaking where they all utilize the same themes and structures, something that now affects even Pixar’s newest work. There’s nothing wrong with this strategy as audiences still turn out in droves to see animated films but they all more or less adhere to the same set of instructions. If anything, The Lego Movie and, to a lesser extent Disney’s Frozen, make the conscious decision to break away from traditional mores and tropes and, in the process, result in films that don’t seem to play by all the established rules. Charting your own course doesn’t always lead to success but in the case of The Lego Movie it hits it out of the park and reminds everyone that creativity is King and audiences will probably respond in kind by propelling the film to astronomical levels of success.

Blockchain has the potential to serve as a powerful tool for mining companies looking to improve their environmental, social and governance standards as consumer pressure in this regard continues to grow, the latest report by Fitch Solutions shows.
While blockchain also offers a number of other potential benefits to miners, the technology remains largely untested across the industry and questions remain as to whether it can be successfully applied on a large scale.
“Blockchain may play an important role in mining companies' quest to remain globally competitive through the increasing adoption of technological solutions into their operations over the coming years,” the report says.
It adds that blockchain – a decentralised, secure and automated digital ledger – has been touted as being able to improve various aspects of mining operations, including cyber and physical asset security, cross-border payments and transactions or the streamlining of administrative costs.
“However, we believe the technology's biggest growth potential lies in its ability to help miners improve transparency across mineral supply chains, an increasingly important consideration as the industry becomes more consumer-conscious.”
In this regard, global mining companies such as BHP Billiton and De Beers, as well as other smaller technology players, are already experimenting with or plan to implement blockchain solutions to improve supply chain transparency.
Nevertheless, the report highlights that there are significant challenges to the successful adoption of blockchain in the mining industry in the near future, mainly relating to broader questions surrounding a technology that remains largely unproven in terms of its practical and large-scale applicability.
The report highlights that blockchain will likely receive increasing interest as a cybersecurity tool, at a time when mining operations become more digitalised and thus more vulnerable to hacking.
While 32% of mining companies report having widespread cybersecurity measures, this is generally at the enterprise-level and cybersecurity at mine operations, where machines are becoming increasingly connected, remains underinvested.
Blockchain also offers the potential for mining companies to improve their physical asset risk exposure.
Blockchain technology could be used to identify an existing orebody and subdivide it into cubic metre segments, which would be verified by a trusted on-the-ground third party and recorded or "tokenised" into the blockchain.
At this point, the blockchain could link to a physical tag that would detect if an orebody is tampered with, thus providing an efficient safeguard against illegal mining activity for mining companies operating in less regulated markets.
Further, blockchain could simplify and bring more flexibility to the ore shipping process.

The trio represented Australia at the conference and enjoyed extensive networking opportunities among our global peers, discussing every aspect of the language services industry and soaking up the infectious energy and enthusiasm of other conference attendees.
See photos below including with GALA’s Chairman, Robert Etches.
Translators International, the West Perth based company founded by Jerzy Brodzki, is celebrating its 30th year providing language services.
The mining and resources industry has played a big part in the success of Translators International and Jerzy has up to 160 translators and linguists available to help him meet its demands
Apart from the commercial work, Translators International assists WA Government instrumentalities involved in commerce, trade and tourism.
Jerzy says his office is the only one in WA offering full simultaneous conference equipment. This means that business people visiting Perth and conference organisers do not have to bring technical equipment with them.
“Perhaps the major development in our profession during my time in business has been the establishment of the Australasian Association of Language Companies,” Jerzy said.
“It is a privilege and pleasure for me to be elected vice president of this new organisation.
“I am confident that those of us who are founding members will enjoy the benefits of the unification of language companies.” “We are enjoying our 30thanniversary and we foresee a bright future with the AALC,” Jerzy said.
2M Language Services has won in the Export Category of the 2013 National Multicultural Marketing Awards at the Gala Presentation in Sydney. 2M’s Christiane Roll, Director of Sales, accepted the award on behalf of the company: “A great honour to be amongst these top Australian organisations who have shown most creative and successful multicultural marketing initiatives. We are humbled to receive this award!”
Each year, the Awards celebrate the accomplishments of businesses and organisations that have successfully implemented marketing initiatives that engage our multicultural population, and encourage and reward the efforts of those that focus on the cultural diversity of Australia in their overall marketing strategies.
2M won the Export Category for a large project involving dubbing of security videos for U.S. giant Dupont into PNG Pidgin and a variety of other Asian languages, including voice-over production, script translations and adaptations.

This soup is an all-time favorite comfort food, and what better excuse to make potato leek soup than St. Patrick’s Day. You’re going to absolutely love how easy it is to make and it’s delicious too!
- 5-6 Russet potatoes
- 4 cups of chicken stock or water
- 2 small leeks, sliced
- 4 T butter
- 1/2 c. half and half
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. pepper
- chives to garnish (optional)
- Leeks can be very sandy, to be sure to wash them well before slicing.
- Saute leeks in butter until soft and bright green (about 15 minutes), then set aside.
- Dice potatoes into bite-sized pieces and place into large saucepan or Dutch oven.
- Cover potatoes with stock. If you need a little more liquid to cover the potatoes just add water until potatoes are just covered.
- Add salt and pepper.
- Bring potatoes to a boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes or until potatoes are soft.
- Smash potatoes against the side of the pot until the soup is a texture that makes you happy. You can use a hand blender to make it smoother if you like, but we prefer it a bit chunky.
- Stir in leeks and half and half.
- Adjust seasoning if necessary.
I know it seems just too easy, but you’re gonna love it, especially with a green beer!

From Tate Modern to the Musée d’Orsay, there is a long and successful tradition of municipal utilities being converted to cutting-edge art galleries. The latest transformation sees the former Laurie Grove Baths off New Cross Road and the adjoining water tanks become the Goldsmiths Centre for Contemporary Art – a world-class, eight-gallery space dedicated to exhibitions and artist residencies, marking a momentous step in the cultural evolution of this area of London.
Lewisham has so far lacked the lustre bestowed by the presence of an international gallery – and although there are many local initiatives, the absence of a physical arts centre has meant the creative communities have been disparate and inaccessible to the general public. When Richard Noble became Goldsmiths’ head of art in 2009, he wanted to open up the department and its legacy to the world. ‘We were always a gated community here, not a cultural resource,’ he tells me. ‘I felt we had to be reoriented towards contemporary art.’
After all, the college has long contributed to shaping British and global culture. Alumni include 30 Turner Prize nominees and seven winners. Bridget Riley completed her studies at Goldsmiths in the summer of 1952 when she was 21. And it played an integral part in the development of the YBAs: it was while a student here that Damien Hirst – under the tutelage of Michael Craig-Martin – curated ‘Freeze’, the exhibition of works by his fellow students, including Gary Hume, Sarah Lucas and Mat Collishaw, that caught the attention of the collector Charles Saatchi 30 years ago.
Noble’s idea was to create a public gallery that drew on the art school’s rich past and championed contemporary art from around the world. In 2011, he saw the potential in the shell of the former bathhouse to become that platform. Drawing on the goodwill of Goldsmiths’ former students, the institution held an auction at Christie’s to raise money for the first round of funding, selling works by Gillian Wearing, Damien Hirst, Sarah Lucas, Antony Gormley, Steve McQueen, Sam Taylor-Johnson and Fiona Banner. As the vision grew, so did the ambition; Sarah McCrory, who was running Glasgow International festival, was hired as the gallery’s director and renowned figures became major benefactors; a room on the top floor now bears the name of Bridget Riley’s foundation.
On 8 September, the space will be inaugurated with an exhibition of commissioned and existing works by the Argentinian video artist Mika Rottenberg, and there will be subsequent shows from the Estonian sculptor Kris Lemsalu, the late feminist artist Alexis Hunter and a presentation by the Chicago Imagists. As Fiona Banner observes: ‘When art education is fighting for its life, to make this confident, visionary gallery, which is going to bring art from all over the world into the art school, is great for everyone and is generous to the future.’

Welcome to a new CRYO world
In the world of greater safety, lower costs, and careless moments
The 300 Below / CryoTech Company was founded back in 1966 in the cradle of industry – Detroit city.
Since its establishment, it has been an environmentally-friendly company with clear goals. To save natural resources and substantially reduce clients’ expenses. 300 Below is a pioneer in the area of the commercial utilization of cryogenic processing. In the past 50 years, the company has processed millions of kilograms of steel and other materials for thousands of customers all over the world. Our clients include companies such as NASA, the U.S. Military, USPS and NYPD. The company owns more than 100 patented processes in the area of cryogenic processing. The fundamental research results in this area can be attributed to Dr. Randall Barron of Louisiana Tech University. This man is also the founder of the 300 Below / CryoTech Company.
In 2015, the European Cryogenic Institute was founded in the Czech Republic. It aims to improve knowledge of the cryogenic processing of materials within Europe, and to provide the customers with an expert approach when processing their work orders. It maintains precise cryogenic processes including tempering, keeping terms and, last but not least, agreed prices. This is how the European Cryogenic Institute is characterized on the European market. The inherent part of the Company activities is permanent cooperation with 300 Below in exchanging new knowledge.
Due to mutually shared knowledge, both companies can process jobs best with respect to their clients’ requirements.
Pete Paulin (300 Below) and Kamil Zikmund (European Cryogenic Institute) have concluded a trade partnership.
With a cryogenic thermal process, it is possible to reduce the money spent and increase clients’ profit with virtually no expenses.
What processes take place here? The metallic materials are exposed to the dry deep freezing process using liquid nitrogen (LN2), which is controlled and supplied by the control software. The process takes 72 hours on average and involves modifications of the material’s atomic structure before the workpieces are brought back to ambient temperature. The property improvements usually follow from thermal heating (tempering). This process is called the “cryogenic tempering process”.
The ongoing cryogenic process (European Cryogenic Institute).
By lowering the temperature down to -186°C, the atomic structure is re-arranged without damage. By re-arranging the atoms, the uniformity of the material’s atomic structure is enhanced as well as the material’s properties, such as abrasion resistance. Based on the type of material, a range of subsequent heat treatment phases can be added with the use of industrial furnaces. This can lead to other effects (e.g., relieving the inner tension). Tempering after freezing has a huge influence on the abrasion resistance and life span of a wide range of metallic objects. There are also many other materials which can be cryogenically processed with success.
The 300 Below / CryoTech company also experiments in co-operation with the European Cryogenic Institute and other companies and scientific institutes across the world with materials and components which show a certain potential for improvement. Improvements in strength, ductility, and dimensional stability go hand in hand with inner tension. The material property improvements are different for various materials. A typical result of cryogenic processing is improved wear resistance, longer life, fewer cracks, easier cleaning, as well as a whole range of other improved characteristics based on the requirement. Many changes are dependent on the type of steel or metal used in compliance with the relevant production.The irreversible process of cryogenic processing improves the structure for the whole lifetime, not only on the surface but throughout the volume. It is possible to carry out cryogenic processing of a wide range of products in many industrial areas.

I love the smooth sleek lines and the reflective quality of the material he uses in this work literally with the use of mirrored tiles
or in this with black ceramic tile
He creates the look of an altar. His abstraction is successful because of the symmetry and simplicity of the line against the grid of the tile edges. But there is a tension in the abstraction at the focal point as he breaks the edges with paint. He presents a literal introduction of the hand in contrast to the chosen objects strategically placed or held on shelves.
I admire how he plays with pattern using a zebra skin on an oriental rug. Johnson adds gold embroidery which references the tradition and cultural heritage of rug making.
What's on the wall or on the floor what do we walk up to and see? What do we look down on or walk on? The notion of what is precious what is a status symbol? Examining that which has been taken from other cultures stolen or poached. Johnson shows tension not just in issues of race but class in his choice of objects and how he presents them.
Here is a video clip of him talking about his work:
