Isla and Double Standard at The Standard – King's Cross
The first London opening from US hotel Group, Standard International, The Standard will launch in King's Cross this summer. This month will see the opening of two ground-floor drinking and dining destinations within the 10-storey hotel – Isla and Double Standard. Overseen by YBF Chef of the Year-awarded Adam Rawson, both spaces will have distinct identities with separate menus and design created by long-standing Standard collaborator Shawn Hausman.
An all-day restaurant with an elegant dining room, Isla will serve a seasonal menu and focus predominantly on low intervention wine, serving coastal cuisine inspired by Britain's island geography. Double Standard, on the other hand, will be a more boisterous space, with a menu inspired by traditional pub classics and NYC dive bar food, also serving craft beers and classic cocktails late into the evening. An additional stand-alone bar and restaurant from chef Peter Sanchez-Iglesias will also open in the hotel later this year.
On the launch of Isla and Double Standard, Adam Rawson said: "I've really enjoyed the challenge of creating menus which reflect the distinct personalities of Double Standard and Isla. Double Standard is going to be a more raucous, convivial space, so I've come up with a selection of elevated snacks perfect for sharing (or soaking up a few pints). Isla's menu will be more delicate and much lighter – perfect for enjoying in the summer sunshine."
Isla and Double Standard will open on Thursday 11th July and can be found at The Standard London, 10 Argyle Street, London, WC1H 8EG.
The Stratford Brasserie – Stratford
A new 42-storey skyscraper in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, Manhattan Loft Gardens is home to The Stratford Hotel and Lofts, offering a mix of short and long-term stays, with three sky gardens, a private club and two restaurants – Allegra and The Stratford Brasserie. Opening this month, The Stratford Brasserie will act as an all-day dining restaurant. Under the direction of chef Ben Harrington (Soho House Group, Gordon Ramsay at Claridge's), The Stratford Brasserie's menu will focus on light sharing dishes using seasonal British ingredients. Breakfast will include the likes of homemade crumpets and Acai bowls, followed by pizza served all day alongside salads and small plates. Dinner will include classic brasserie fare such as schnitzel, risotto and burgers alongside chopped Cornish bream with smoked crème fraîche, pickled celery and rye; or preserved lemon and oregano roasted chicken. A grilled peach Baked Alaska will be available amongst the dessert offering.
On the launch of The Stratford Brasserie, Manhattan Loft Gardens Developer Harry Handelsman said: "The Stratford Brasserie will be the first welcome as guests and residents enter Manhattan Loft Gardens. It's a place for locals to meet and dine as an alternative to the Westfield chains. The skyscraper's architecture has been designed to encourage spontaneous interaction, and The Stratford Brasserie is at the very heart of this – it will be the perfect place for a vibrant, vertical community to thrive."
Ben Harrington added: "We welcome guests to eat with us whatever the time of day, for any occasion, whether it's to share a pizza and a glass of wine with friends, or for dinner with the family – we really want to be a home away from home, not only for people staying in the building but for people from the local area too."

Hoh Sek – St. Katharine Docks
The latest from Saiphin and Alex Moore, the husband and wife team behind Rosa's Thai Café, Hoh Sek Noodles will open at St. Katharine Docks Marina this month. Cantonese for 'delicious', Hoh Sek will have a prominent focus on Chinese-influenced noodles, inspired by Saiphin Moore's time spent living in Hong Kong. During the say, a grab-and-go noodle concept will operate from the site, before transforming into a 40-cover sit-down restaurant during the evening.
Available Monday to Friday, from 12 noon through 3pm, Hoh Sek's grab-and-go menu will feature a core selection known as 'Saiphin's Six': six noodle dishes with Asia-wide influences, but primarily Chinese in focus. Here, guests can expect the likes of red fermented tofu soup with flat noodles, prawn, squid, fish ball, water spinach and bean curd; and pork noodle soup with rice noodles, roasted pork, long beans, celery, coriander, bean sprout and lime. More substantial dishes will be served in the evening, with the seasonally changing menu also slated to offer a weekly specials board championing some of Saiphin Moore's favourite home recipes.
On the launch of Hoh Sek, Saiphin Moore said, "Noodles have always held a special place in my heart as it was my first noodle shop, which I set up when I was 14 in Thailand, that first started me on my career as a chef. Years later, Alex and I met in Hong Kong and we fell in love with the street food noodles there. You can buy great and tasty noodles from almost every street stall and they're also served in the more traditional restaurants. They're a real symbol of the city's thriving food scene, so this is what we now want to bring to London and share with everybody.
"Alex and I live close to St. Katharine Docks, and this is where the idea for Rosa's Thai Cafe was born when we first moved to London, so seems fitting we are returning here to launch Hoh Sek in our own neighbourhood this July. We hope everybody will fall in love with amazing noodles like we have."
Hoh Sek is set to open in July and can be found at The Roundhouse with the Green Roof, St. Katharine's Way, St. Katharine Docks, London, E1W 1TW.
Mo Diner – Mayfair
Mourad Mazouz, the creative mind behind Sketch London and recently re-launched Momo will open Mo Diner this month. Inspired by the classic American diners of the 1930s, the Heddon Street restaurant's interiors have been designed by Mazouz, having collaborated with a number of high-profile collaborators. As for the food, the restaurant's menu will be inspired by the shores of the Mediterranean, served from breakfast through to dinner.
At breakfast, Mo Diner will serve Mediterranean twists on classics, including Mo hash browns with pomegranate and brown sauce to Berber pancakes with fig marmalade and almonds. A variety of classic egg dishes such as Moroccan khlea with beef, eggs and green chermoula; and Eggs Florentine with spinach, mulukhiyah and aleppo hollandaise will also be available. Elsewhere, dishes will include the likes of 'Loulou's chicken wings'; Merguez in a blanket; grilled octopus with saffron aioli; and Om Ali bread pudding for dessert. In addition, a list of carefully selected wines by the glass and carafe will also be available alongside healthy smoothies, milkshakes and hard shakes.
Mo Diner is set to open in July and can be found at 23 Heddon Street, London, W1B 4BH.
24 Mayfair – Mayfair
A new 24-hour member's club off Park Lane, 24 Mayfair will occupy an elegant site split into a ground floor bar and upstairs restaurant. Serving a light daytime menu, the bar will evolve into an upbeat, contemporary cocktail bar in the evening, serving a selection of cocktails including the likes of 'Pink in Bloom' (comprising hibiscus and acai infused gin, quince liqueur, homemade tonic and an edible bouquet) or an opulent 'Gold Martini' made with 24k gold-leaf, Grey Goose vodka, elderflower and Sauternes.
Upstairs, the restaurant boasts a contemporary Japanese menu and an eight-seat, glass encased Teppanyaki bar. From the Japanese menu, dishes will include the likes of king scallops, vanilla miso and pickled plums; scorched salmon and buffalo mozzarella makimono, chilli spiced mayonnaise and bonito flakes; and seared foie gras, enoki mushroom, pomegranate molasses and toasted walnuts. Additionally, a second Pan-Asian menu will include dishes such as Thai-inspired yellow stone bass curry; or Malaysian-inspired lamb cutlet rendang.
24 Mayfair is set to open in July and can be found at 24 Hertford Street, London, W1J 7SA.
Flor – Borough
Following the success of Lyle's, currently number 33 in the World's 50 Best Restaurants list, James Lowe and John Ogier will open Flor next week. A new wine bar, bakery and restaurant in Borough Market, Flor will be heavily inspired by the buvettes of Paris and the pintxos bars of San Sebastián. Each morning, a selection of baked goods will be served, while lunch will aim to encapsulate the informality of European dining culture, with dishes such as cured Mangalitsa and Comté sandwich in fermented potato bread; or raw scallop, preserved gooseberry and green tomato.
Dinner, on the other hand, will feature a menu of simple plates such as burrata with grilled bread and salted tomatoes; Cornish pollack brandade and pickled peppers; lamb ribs, yoghurt and black lime; and whole Dover sole with capers and wild marjoram. To finish, individual chocolate sabayon tarts will be available alongside loganberry fool and simple desserts made with fruit picked from the Sussex farm used by Lyle's. Flor will also serve a wine list sourced from agriculturally responsible producers and will be open for brunch on Saturdays.
On the launch of Flor, John Ogier said: "We have decided to open a bakery, restaurant and wine bar that we like to think of as the little sister of Lyle's, following the same philosophy with a love of good quality ingredients but with baking at the heart."
James Lowe added: "Whereas at Lyle's we focus on the best produce that Britain has to offer, with Flor we will be paying homage to the variety of European ingredients available in London, particularly with Borough Market on our doorstep. It will be a smaller, more laid-back space but with a big personality."
Flor is set to open on Thursday 11th July and can be found at 1 Bedale Street, London, SE1 9AL.

Airport crisis: Shippers association says will divert cargoes to Ghana
The Lagos State Shippers Association, on Friday said it would direct its members to divert their cargoes to Ghana as the cargo sheds at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, had remained shut.
The association's President, Mr Jonathan Nicol, who made the assertion in Lagos, said the sheds had been shut for nine days.
He said: "We (shippers) are moving some of our cargo to Accra, Ghana, as the Nigerian Aviation Handling Company Plc (NAHCO) and Skyway Aviation Handling company Ltd. (SAHCOL) sheds remained shut".
Nicol said the shippers (importers and exporters) were taking this stand because goods stocked in the sheds were attracting huge demurrage and they (shippers) could not quantify how much loss they had been incurring.
The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) had on Monday said the cargo sheds of the airport should remain shut until terminal operators complied with new operational procedures that would not threaten national security and revenue.
The closure of the sheds was based on the confrontation between the customs and the licensed agents.
The Customs Area Comptroller of the Airport Command, Mr Tajudeen Olanrewaju, said government had directed officials to identify and allow passage of perishable, medical and diplomatic goods, which had remained trapped due to the crisis.
He said the NCS had the power to deal with any violator or saboteur who threatened national security and collection of revenues for government.
Olarenwaju said that government would continue to keep the cargo warehouse closed because the clearing agents had demonstrated that they were not ready to comply with regulations.
The comptroller said that agreements signed with the agents in the past had failed as they had consistently violated the rules that restricted their access to some parts of the cargo terminal.
"It has become increasingly insecure to carry out businesses at the cargo section of the airport because the agents have through their collective action continued to threaten national security.
"The agents have displayed lack of capacity to enforce the new regulations in sensitive areas where cargo is kept at the airport.
"The warehouse remains shut until the agents and terminal managers show capacity to operate without threat to security," he said.
Nicol added: "The shippers are losing so much, especially at this time that we have supply contracts to our various clients.
"We appeal to the Nigeria Customs Service and the freight forwarders to resolve the issues at stake.
"The cargo in the sheds do not belong to the freight forwarders, they belong to the shippers.
"The shippers have no quarrel with customs. Shippers are not finding it easy with our cargo caged in the sheds for no fault of ours," he said.
"Whatever has happened between customs and the freight forwarders is part of human error; so it can be resolved.
"Whatever is the problem between the freight forwarders and the customs should not affect the nation's economy."
Nicol recalled that few days ago, they got out of the nine-day strike at the Apapa port and now going through another strike at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport.
He said that as the shippers were trying to get out of the problems of the Apapa strike, they were still paying demurrages.
"We cannot afford to continue to do business in a volatile atmosphere that cannot be determined.
"So, we are moving some of our cargo to Accra," Nicol said.

From 7-17 August 2018, the second NEWDAY - Nansen East-West Dialogue Academy took place at Nansen Academy in Lillehammer, Norway. The academy was co-organised by NIAS - Nordic Institute of Asian Studies, Nansen Academy and the Fudan-European Centre for China Studies.
Above: A group photo of this year's participants and some of the lecturers.
Nansen Academy was founded as a folk high school in 1938. It was named after polar explorer, scientist, author and humanist Fridtjof Nansen (1861-1930), whose work embodied essential elements of humanism: active love of one's neighbour and freedom of thought. NEWDAY is thus not only hosted physically by Nansen Academy, but also philosophically and ideologically. It embodies the spirit of the folk high school and Nansen Academy in its quest for creating understanding between cultures through dialogue between and across cultures.
This year, 22 students from China and Norway gathered at Nansen Academy to engage in cross-cultural dialogue, attend lectures, and partake in debates and panel discussions. The programme also featured several social and creative activities including musical performances, trips to local museums, and walks by the lake Mjøsa - the biggest lake of Norway.
In this year's summer academy we sought to define, dissect and discuss some of the critical cases and topical issue areas of our times: economic growth and increasing inequality, environmental degradation and climate change, quality of life, education, and modes of governance. Students were encouraged to actively voice their opinions and engage in discussions - not only with each other, but with professors and lecturers as well.
Each day featured lectures by prominent figures from within academia, politics, and media, and was constructed around a specific theme. This reflected not only in the daily lectures but also the group work and panel debates. The themes covered a range of different burning issues of our time, including climate change and environmental degradation, cross-cultural understanding, social trust and activism, varieties of political norms, gender, AI, educational traditions in the Nordic region and East Asia, and more.

Fudan University will hold the Youth Innovation Competition on Global Governance (YICGG 2018) this summer from July 15th to July 20th in Chongming, Shanghai, China.
YICGG has been an annual international student competition since 2007, sponsored by United Nations Development Program (UNDP) in China and organized by the School of International Relations and Public Affairs (SIRPA) of Fudan University. YICGG aims to promote global reform and global governance. Thanks to its high academic standard, YICGG has been cited as 'the Academic Olympics for the Youth' among similar students' activities. During the past 10 years, more than 1250 participants, 312 teams from 143 universities and institutions, 81 countries and regions in total have taken part in the program and submitted over 419 proposals.
By attending YICGG2018, students can communicate with experts in the field of sharing economy and learn from delegates from around the world. YICGG will provide an opportunity for the world's young talent to gather and discuss issues of common interests. Valuable policy proposals of YICGG will be submitted to UNDP.
Please note that the YICGG committee will provide airfare subsidies and local accommodation for participants.
The deadline for registration is March 31th, 10:59 AM EST.
For more information, please read the official YICGG 2018 announcement flyer or visit the official YICGG webpage.
From February 12-16, the Fudan-European Centre for China Studies along with NIAS – Nordic Institute of Asian Studies and Nansen Academy co-arranged the 2018 Understanding Asia course, which took place at Nansen Academy in Lillehammer, Norway.
Held annually since 2013, the course features five days of lectures and activities to provide participants with a deeper understanding of the cultural, political, and economic elements shaping today's Asia.
Geir Helgesen gave a lecture entitled 'Culture and politics, an introduction to (North) Korea'. Here he mapped the landscapes of the political cultures of "the two Koreas" which, although often seen as in opposition, has deeply rooted similarities due to their common history. He also hosted a meeting at Nansen Academy under the title 'North Korea – a threat to world peace or a convenient enemy? Uncomfortable questions and controversial answers'. The meeting was open for participation for all interested, and served as an introduction to the present-day conflict on the Korean peninsula. Geir Helgesen offered an analysis of the situation and suggested that consistent dialogue with North Korea is the most feasible option for a solution of the conflict.
Chunrong Liu gave two lectures, addressing China's perspective on the tensions on the Korean Peninsula and Chinese politics in the "New Era". On Korea nuclear affairs, he invited a deep thinking about the root cause and the discussion about "who has the key". He showed how China has been involved in the mediation process with the initiative of the Six Party Talk, and explained China's priorities of peace, stability and dialogue, as well as the possibility to avoid a war in a "dark forest". In the second lecture, he analyzed China's domestic politics – new dynamics associated with the 19th CPC national congress. He showed the continuities and "paradoxical developments" of Chinese politics, which features both power recentralization and the new political spaces that are necessary for the implementation of national policy schemes of poverty reduction and eco-civilization.
Finally, professor dr. Song Xinning, Jean Monnet Chair ad personam and China director of BACES – Brussels Academy for China and European Studies gave a lecture on EU-China relations under the title 'EU-China strategic partnership under the new leadership'. He characterized EU and China as partners in terms of economy (trade and investment), global governance, development and culture, and argued that while both EU and China has benefitted from their mutual cooperation, deepening the relations between the two will prove beneficial for both parties. He also argued that the change in leadership in China has produced a "new thinking" of EU-China relations, which differs from past strategies in terms of its style, preference and policy. This thinking is guided by Xi Jinping's "three two" understanding of the nature of EU-China relations: two forces for global peace, two markets for world economy, and two origins of world civilization.
Following the conclusion of Understanding Asia, Geir Helgesen and Kasper Ørntoft Thor met with representatives from Nansen Academy, including rector Unn Irene Aasdalen, to discuss and plan for the 2018 NEWDAY summer school.
NEWDAY is arranged by NIAS, Fudan Centre and Nansen Academy with the support of Nordic Council of Ministers.
Organizers: Fudan Development Institute (FDDI) and Fudan-UC Center on Contemporary China.
Fudan Development Institute (FDDI), based at Fudan University, is calling for paper submissions from young scholars – PhD students up to associate professors– throughout FDDI's international network all over the world. Applicant must be or under 45 years of age. The conference will take place May 24-25, 2018 at Fudan University.
If you would like to present a paper at the conference, please send your submission (3,000-5,000 words in English) as well as your CV to Ms. JIANG Huaxia ([email protected]) by March 16, 2018. You will be notified by March 30, 2018 if your paper has been selected for presentation.

The Fudan-European Centre for China Studies is pleased to invite you to a lecture on the transformation of religious space in China.
For this event, we are joined by professors Fan Lizhu and Chen Na of Fudan University and Mikkel Bunkenborg from the Department of Cross-Cultural and Regional Studies of UCPH who will be sharing their reserearch findings on the transformation of religion and religious space in contemporary China.
On 11 December 2017, the Fudan-European Centre in collaboration with NIAS-Nordic Institute of Asian Studies, the University of Copenhagen and the Embassy of the People's Republic of China in the Kingdom of Denmark was proud to host a delegation of central political figures from the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC).
The delegation was headed by Mr. Li Shulei 李书磊, Deputy Secretary at the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection of the Communist Party of China - a central figure in the ongoing battle against corruption in China. Before being appointed to this position in January 2017, Mr. Li served as Fujian province's publicity department chief, and has previously served as the vice-president of CPC's Central Party School.
Denmark marked the final destination of the delegation, who paid a visit to Finland and Switzerland prior to their visit at the University of Copenhagen. The purpose of their visit was to engage in dialogue with scholars and policy makers on the dynamics associated with the recently concluded CPC 19th National Party Congress.
The event was an exceptional opportunity for those interested in Chinese politics and the anti-corruption campaign to gain some insights on the matter first-hand from one of the core figures with these fields. For this occasion, the Fudan Centre was proud to bring together the delegation and scholars working on China and Chinese politics. Attendants included scholars from the University of Copenhagen, NIAS-Nordic Institute of Asian Studies, DIIS-Danish Institute of International Studies, and Aarhus University, as well as attendants from the Embassy of the People's Republic of China in the Kingdom of Denmark.
The event also featured a public lecture, where Mr. Li delivered a talk on his thoughts on key policy agendas in China following the 19th Party Congress. Professor Li Wentang, dean of the faculty of humanities at CPC Central Party School shared his perspectives on the notion of a 'community of shared future for mankind', which is one of the keywords of China's foreign policy.
Following the two sessions, Mr. Li Shulei, along with Ambassador Deng Ying, was greeted by Thomas Bjørnholm, prorector of the University of Copenhagen, for an informal conversation on China-related research cooperation.
For the remainder of their visit to Denmark, the delegation was among other things scheduled to meet with The Danish Parliamentary Ombudsmand to discuss practices of political transparency.
For notifications on similar events, please write an email to Kasper Thor.
The event is open to all, but please register with Kasper Ørntoft Thor at [email protected] with name and affiliation.
In July 2017, 55 students from East Asia and the Nordic countries gathered for a 10-days summer course: NEWDAY - the Nansen East-West Dialogue Academy in Lillehammer, Norway. With NEWDAY, we offered students from East Asia and the Nordic region the chance to meet and engage with each other and with top scholars and political leaders on some of the most pressing issues the world faces today.
We defined key challenges in the 21st century's global society and engaged relevant approaches and core concepts, theories and methods to deal with the present and prepare for the future.
Our program aimed at promoting better mutual understanding and foster harmonious relations between people East and West and between our future leaders. Through workshops and discussions we identified common challenges, explored the root causes of problems and provided creative solutions with cultural sensitivity. This work was conducted in a spirit of cross-cultural dialogue and consensus building.
We cooperated with leading universities from eight countries, and with the Trilateral Cooperation Secretariat in Seoul as well as with the Nordic Council of Ministers in Copenhagen. The event was further supported by the Fudan-European Centre for China Studies, NIAS – Nordic Institute of Asian Studies and the Nansen Academy.

Review: 'Prairie Boy' Tom Cochrane Rocks The Riverbank, Honours Humboldt Broncos
James Muretich - Calgary Herald
Tom Cochrane and his reunited Red Rider bandmates rocked the Bessborough Gardens Saturday night at the jazz festival
Click on image for bigger Version. Photography: 2018 Kayle Neis / Saskatoon StarPhoenix
Cochrane's gig in the Bessborough Gardens Saturday headlining the SaskTel Saskatchewan Jazz Festival included the inevitable reworked version of Big League to honour the Humboldt Broncos.
Cochrane made references to his "Prairie boy" background throughout the lively show, but the new lyrics to Big League struck a heartfelt note.
Cochrane stood alone with his guitar, bathed in Broncos-coloured yellow and green lights, to perform the 1988 classic with new lyrics to pay tribute to victims of the April 6 bus crash that killed 16.
If Cochrane had hoped for silent reverence during the song about a hockey tragedy, Saturday night at the jazz fest with rowdy fans may have been the wrong venue.
Still, Cochrane was handed a Broncos jersey from a member of the throng that partied in front of the stage for the entire 13-song set.
"We didn't cry for Humboldt," Cochrane said prior to his first performance of the reworked song in Saskatchewan. "We cried with Humboldt."
Cochrane followed Big League with a stripped-down version of the ballad Good Times with just himself and original Red Rider keyboardist Ken Greer on stage.
Mostly, though, Cochrane and his reunited Red Rider bandmates, also including bassist Jeff Jones, rocked the riverside venue.
If the jazz fest main stage was not located outdoors, the band's performance of Canadian rock anthem Life is a Highway would have blown the roof off the joint.
The band burst into the rousing classic after an odd interlude of the 1961 Ray Charles smash Hit the Road Jack.
Cochrane welcomed fellow Manitoba native and opening act Romi Mayes back on stage to help out with Life is a Highway vocals. Not that he needed help.
The 65-year-old, clad in a black leather jacket for almost the entire show, showed no signs of his age, even though many songs call for him to scream. His dancing could best be described as awkward shuffling, but that's part of his charm.
The extended guitar riffs on multiple songs got repetitive, but the fans sounded like they could not get enough.
Give the band credit, too, for selling the pre-encore exit with extended bows. But a reunited Red Rider concert without Lunatic Fringe? Unthinkable.
The evening looked to be ending after Boy Inside the Man. Cochrane hopped around with a big smile on his face, looking like a teenager who had just finished his first paying gig.
"This is home for us, you know," he said. "I'm a Prairie boy."
Then, Cochrane sat down alone at the keyboards for the quiet Another Year to cap the show.
Mayes opened up for Cochrane with an impressive set of bluesy songs.

All internet and mobile providers in the country will be required to enforce the ban.
Playerunknown's Battlegrounds is banned in Nepal effective today, according to a report in the Kathmandu Post. The move comes after the Nepal Metropolitan Crime Division filed a Public Interest Litigation with the Kathmandu District Court on Wednesday. A day later, the Nepal Telecommunication Authority has called for all ISPs and mobile service providers to block the game.
According to a report in the Kathmandu Post dating from 2016, the three most popular competitive games at the time were Dota 2, Counter Strike: GO and FIFA 16. The Nepal ban follows a similar shortlived ban on PUBG Mobile in parts of India earlier this year.

Land Environments of New Zealand (LENZ) is a new and innovative quantitatively-based classification of New Zealand's terrestrial environments that assists biodiversity conservation and natural resources management at all levels throughout New Zealand.
LENZ (Land Environments of New Zealand) is an environmental classification intended to underpin a range of conservation and resource management issues. LENZ was originally envisioned as a framework for conservation management that would take advantage of the natural relationship between the environment and species distributions. Rather than occurring randomly, species tend to occur in areas having similar environmental conditions. As a consequence, similar environments tend to support similar groups of plants and animals, provided they have not been substantially modifed by human activity.
LENZ capitalises on the species-environment relationships by identifying climatic and landform factors likely to influence the distribution of species. LENZ uses these factors to define a landscape classification that groups together sites that have similar environmental conditions. Such a classification can then be used to indicate sites likely to have similar potential ecosystem character - not necessarily the same in all respects but likely to have similar groups of species and similar biological interactions and processes.
One major advantage of this approach, as opposed to directly mapping land cover for example, is its ability to predict the potential character of sites where natural ecosystems have been substantially modified (e.g. by land clearance or fire) or replaced by introduced plants and animals (e.g. pests and weeds).
Although LENZ was originally envisioned as a tool for biodiversity management, it has a much wider application. This is because the environmental factors that control the distributions of many land based plants and animals (temperature, water supply, availability of nutrients, etc.) are also factors that provide major constraints on human land uses such as agriculture, horticulture, and forestry.

Electric mobility should benefit the poorest in our society
Posted on 12 November, 2019 by Chaitanya Kumar	One comment
I have been working in Victoria, London, for the past three years. The buildings, the corner shops and the pubs have roughly stayed the same in this period but I've noticed a marked change in something else. Electric vehicles and chargers have started to appear on the streets, pavements and lampposts. Teslas, Leafs and Zoes are now gliding around quietly, with no tailpipe emissions. The direction of travel for Britain's cars is clear, it is clean and electric. Plug-in vehicles have grown almost a hundred fold in seven years and are expected to reach ten per cent of all vehicle sales in the next two to three years. This is remarkable growth.
There is, however, an underlying injustice to this revolution. Victoria is situated in one of the fourth wealthiest local authorities in the country, which means the electric vehicles and their charging infrastructure are being bought by and subsidised for the richest in our society. In fact, more than half of all electric vehicles in the private consumer market are being bought by the top 20 per cent of income earners, with only four per cent owned by the lowest 20 per cent.
Electric vehicles are cheaper overall but have high upfront costs
Electric vehicles are cheaper to run, service and maintain and are considered to offer a higher degree of driving ease and comfort. They also result in cleaner air. But, with prohibitively high upfront costs, they are out of reach to low and middle income households, who could benefit most from using them. A small family model, like an electric VW Golf, costs at least £6,000 more than a comparable Ford Fiesta petrol model, and this translates to higher leasing costs as well, the preferred route to owning a car in Britain.
Our new report, Going electric: how everyone can benefit sooner highlights that the way to address this disparity is through more rapid growth in the used electric car market. The car market as a whole is dominated by second hand vehicles, roughly eight million used vehicles are sold each year compared to around two million new cars. Government figures show that low income households spend up to twice more on purchasing or loaning used cars than on new cars. And most of those are older cars, three quarters of used cars bought by low income households are over five years old and less than ten per cent are under two years old.
Modelling by Element Energy for Green Alliance shows that, after the first four years, the upfront price of an electric vehicle comes down significantly. At this point, most of the cost of owning a car goes on running costs. And, for electric vehicles, these costs are half that of conventional vehicles. We estimate that the total cost of owning a typical second hand family electric vehicle is roughly £2,600 to £3,200 lower than it would be for equivalent diesel and petrol engine models. And this saving would rise to £5,000 for a nine year old vehicle.
The pace of change needs to speed up
Of course, more new electric vehicles sold will eventually lead to more in the used car market. But the problem is that, over the past couple of years, the number of new electric vehicles on the market has been woefully insufficient to meet the fast growing demand, with frustratingly long waiting times for prospective owners. Subsequently, only two and a half per cent of new cars sold in 2018 were electric. This isn't fast enough, either to tackle the problems of climate change and air quality, or to help those on lower incomes to reap the benefits of switching to electric. This situation would be helped if the government introduced a production mandate on carmakers to require that a higher proportion of the cars they sell in the UK are electric, as implemented in places such as China and California.
Our study also shows that, by 2025, even without the existing plug-in vehicle grant, electric vehicles will be the cheapest choice of vehicle on a total cost of ownership basis across all car models. The government is considering winding down its subsidy programme from 2021 but we suggest maintaining some form of support to keep costs down for buyers and ensure a faster rise in uptake in the short term. This could be in the form of more targeted rebates on purchases by low and middle income households, as implemented in California. How continued plug-in grants is paid for is an important question but it could be dealt with by raising new car registration fees or Vehicle Excise Duty (VED) rates on polluting cars.
Over half of vehicle purchases are made by fleet operators, so a swifter transition to electric in that sector would also push more cars into the used electric vehicle market. We acknowledge the positive results of the recently slashed benefit-in-kind tax rates but another way of increasing consumer confidence around electric vehicles would be to support the provision of workplace charging.
The shift to electric mobility is well underway but there is still an important role for government in making sure that everyone, wherever they live, can see the benefits soon.

Electric cars are not an answer to anything. They are simply a diversion from the real problems.


In the heart of Brussels, you take a turn down a small street. Not an alley, but not a thoroughfare either. Light lingers on the sidewalk in front of a tucked away bistro that looks like something off a Woody Allen set. La Mort Subite glares in comfortable neon and hangs like a banner over a 1920s building, bursting with people in animated conversation. "Hey, waiter! Another beer and some cheese and sausage!" But, it's said in French so it sounds like a seduction. Maybe it is. The beer is that good.
You walk inside and the nearly century old décor amazes. You've crossed the time barrier and stepped back into Brussels' glory days, when beer flowed from the fountains of a hundred breweries, when men dressed in stiff collared shirts and women traipsed about in ankle length furs.
Sadly, that's no longer true, but we live in hope and dreams. Still, the old wooden tables are there, the high ceilings, tall, square columns, and soft, cream colored overheads that deck the room in graceful light. The beer still flows and it's still brewed by the folks who sell it.
These are the good old days, after the First World War and before the Great Depression. 1928. You can feel it in the air. Enjoy the evening. This is the place to forget cares, savor the flavors, and pretend you know what you're talking about. Hemmingway and F. Scott Fitzgerald would have loved it.
La Mort Subite really began about 1910, in an establishment called La Cour Royale. As the story goes, tellers from the National Bank of Belgium came to drink and play a game called 421. Before they left to ease back into the monotony of work, they'd rush through just one more game, la mort subite, or sudden death. The name took to the streets.
When in 1928, the owner and proprietor, Mr. Theophile Vossen moved his business to the current location, he changed the name to match what everyone already called it, La Mort Subite. Mr. Vossen's progeny have carried on and today the fourth generation continues to serve those Gueuze beers that have slaked the thirst of locals and visitors for almost a hundred years.
What is a Gueuze beer? Catch my next blog and I'll take you to the last old style brewery in Brussels. Until then, here are a few teasers: Top fermentation, from naturally occurring yeast. Years of aging that blur the line between wine and beer.
Hey, that's enough. If you get to Brussels, go in and sip a cool one. As well as beer and atmosphere, there's got to be a novel brewing in a one-of-a-kind bistro like La Mort Subite.
Hello. Archibald Bumslick here in London. That's England, not Ontario, Arkansas, Nigeria, nor dozens of other Londons that don't matter a nitty twit.
Big ville, London. Lots to do. Pubs. Theaters. Museums. Shopping. Women without number. Free flowing ale.
Have a gander in the British Dental Association's Dental Museum. Knew you'd want to know. Admire the big molars on the lass next to you at the bar. Make some off color remarks about her overbite.
The vault at the Hard Rock Café preserves Madonna's old credit card. Nice tidbit to share with friends. Missed the tower, saw the credit card.
Time to get serious. Here's list of pubs that'll rust your pipes. Trust me. Take the hint. Keep the snapping fangs of trouble at bay. Preserve the flex in your knees. Write these down. Mark your map.
1. Ye Ole Red Rosy - Might be interesting once you get inside the bloody place. Long line outside. Then, it's a tight squeeze. Once you're in, you feel flushed. This isn't the worst pub on the list, but it's right up in there.
2. Squeeze the Dog and Run – They call him man's best friend, but even your worst enemy won't crap on your living room rug and look you in the eye. The drinks have something floating on top.
3. My Brittle Bone – Snappy little place. All knees and elbows at the bar. Lots of bars. There's the Thigh Bar connected to the Hip Bar, etc.
4. The Golden Flow – I almost went in this one, but suddenly I had to go.
5. Happy Jihadist - A thinly veiled disguise. Everything they serve is non-alcoholic. The "Seventy-two Virgins" on toast leads to intestinal discomfort, followed by an explosive race for the loo.
6. The Gay Banana – I just didn't find this one a-peeling.
7. Ye Salmon-Ella – Right away you smell something fishy. The sign over the bar is a tip off. "What's eaten here stays here." That's mostly true, except for the runny parts that leak under the door.
8. Frog Under Foot - Nauseating décor, all red and green. The beer is flat. Avoid the "Where-the-Rubber-Hits-the-Toad" stew.
9. Duke of Dooky –located on one of the canals, right down the city's spine and pretty much flush with the walls. Odd smell to the place. Stay away from the sausage rolls.
10. The Severed Arms – Difficult to find. Not on one of the main arteries. Can't put my finger on what's missing….oh, yeah, almost forgot.
11. Hair O The Cat Grill – Not for the squeamish. The barkeep is Italian, constantly braying, "Don'ta yu try to cheetah me!" I'm not lion. The litter box lunch is a litter bit off-putting. Strain the soup.
12. Ye Perverted Donkey – Among we Brits it's known as the Kiss My Mule. A very stable place. Been here for ages. Don't order the 'Clod in the Clover' draft from Recycled Hay Brewery.
Note: This is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to your favorite pub is strictly in your inebriated mind and in the mind of the drunken wench hanging on your arm.
There's a knock on the door. I open it and three children in costume begin to sing. Known as Sternsingers (Star Singers), the kids, ages around 8-10, are honoring Three Kings Day, or as they call it in Germany, Dreikönigstag. They wear colorful costumes and at least one carries a wooden stick with a star on one end.
Ok, I realize (and so do they) that The Good Book doesn't specify there were three kings and although we usually think of kings as males, the Bible doesn't really say that either. Translations being what they are and knowing that the event happened over two thousand plus years ago, three and kings may have been approximations, who cares?
I like the tradition. This year the Sternsingers came around on a Saturday and although it was 5 January and Three Kings Day is traditionally 6 January, who's going to quibble? The kids always have an adult chaperone who is quick to point out in any language you choose that the singers are not just there to sing you a carol, but to also bless your house and collect some money for less fortunate children around the world.
In a Roman Catholic tradition, they either chalk or put a sticker over your door that reads: 20+C+M+C+13. I know you're wondering and so was I. Here's the scoop.
The letters have two meanings. They're the initials of the Three Magi: Caspar, Melchior and Balthasar, and they also abbreviate the Latin words "Christus Mansionem Benedicat", "May Christ bless the house". The year is divided before and after the letters. The crosses (+) represent the protection of the Christ.
Not being a Roman Catholic, I didn't know any of that. But, life being as uncertain as it is, hey, anybody who wants to have a go at keeping my family and our home safe, I say, go for it. Besides, what curmudgeon can resist three cute kids, singing beautifully just for you and collecting money for a good cause? Not I. Clink, clink went the shekels into the tin box, offered by a small, outstretched hand. Then three kings (or in my case, two kings and a queen) delivered a solemn blessing in unison.
A little cheerful music, a quick blessing, and I'm good for another year.

Omid (en persa: امید, "esperanza") es el primer satélite artificial de producción y lanzamiento completamente iraní. Fue lanzado desde la provincia de Semnán, según informes de la televisión estatal iraní, el 2 de febrero de 2009 mediante la lanzadera espacial Safir II y puesto en una órbita baja. Tanto el satélite como el cohete lanzadera Safir II con el que ha sido colocado en el espacio han sido diseñados y fabricados por ingenieros de la industria aeronáutica de Irán. Esta fecha de lanzamiento coincidió con la celebración del trigésimo aniversario de la Revolución iraní. La función de este satélite, según el gobierno de Irán, es procesar información, investigar y mejorar las telecomunicaciones.

En el discurso de apertura de un nuevo centro espacial, el 4 de febrero de 2008, el presidente de Irán Mahmud Ahmadineyad anunció que Omid sería lanzado en un "futuro cercano". El 17 de agosto de ese año, altos cargos iraníes informaron de que se había llevado a cabo con éxito una prueba de la lanzadera espacial aunque negaron que el satélite ya se hubiese puesto en órbita.

Omid es el segundo satélite iraní en órbita, ya que en 2005 ya se había lanzado el Shina-1, pero este en colaboración con Rusia.

In order for effective communication to take place in the middle school classroom, students must feel safe to express ideas honestly and openly, without fear of ridicule. It is the teacher's responsibility to create a sense of community in the mathematics classroom. You should establish a learning community in which all students are willing to take risks and to share new ideas, with the expectation that classmates will learn from valuing, analyzing, and responding to those ideas.
What are the characteristics of a classroom that is a true learning community for all students?
What strategies can you use to help students see that incorrect or incomplete solutions still lead toward a solution and are not failures?
How can you help students recognize connections between their ideas and the ideas of others during a discussion?
How can you help students who are reluctant to participate in group work or give class presentations become better able to communicate about mathematics in these ways?


I love the You've Got This stamp set from Stampin' Up!. Sadly, it will be retiring May 31, so if you've been looking at it and wanting to order it, do so quickly before it's gone forever. Oh, I know…a lot of stampers say, "I'll just wait until Donna Demonstrator sells hers at her catalog kick-off party and save a little money." If Donna Demonstrator is anything like me, you'll have to wait a long time. I'm keeping mine, even though it's retiring. I love the crosshatch background, the flower, and the sayings.
Ok – there is one thing about the saying (maybe two). First, I always want to say, "You have this!" That "got" in there is really not necessary, although, "You've this!" is a little weird. The second thing is every time I hear, "You've got this!" I start singing one of the songs from My Little Pony the Movie. Since it's one of Amelia's favorite movies (and mine as well), I've heard "We Got this Together" many, many, many times. (Again, it's a cute song, so I won't get into the grammar right now.) If you'd like it running through your head many times a day, here's a link to the song.
My friend Jackie posted a card yesterday (or maybe today; I'm a little behind) using the most striking color combination – Mango Melody and Poppy Parade. Mango Melody is one of the colors that will be introduced into the Stampin' Up! color palette June 1. It's a beautiful yellow-orange. And, of course, Poppy Parade is my favorite red. It was an In Color a few years ago, and now it's back to join the core colors. Yay!
The combination reminds me of the sunsets Susan posts. She and her husband have a summer lake cottage, and she posts sunsets quite often. I love sunsets, and Susan's are spectacular. I always look forward to seeing them on Facebook.
I had to use Jackie's color combination on a card today.
I inked the crosshatch pattern with Mango Melody and Poppy Parade and stamped on Whisper White cardstock. I stamped the flower in Jet Black Stazon, then colored it with Poppy Parade, Mango Melody, and Granny Apple Green – another new color for 2018-19 (and hopefully longer!) – and cut it out. Again, Granny Apple Green reminds me of a My Little Pony character, but I digress.
I stamped the sentiment in Tuxedo Black Memento. When I ordered You've Got This, it must have been a free incentive, because it's on wood blocks. BS (before Stamparatus), I always got free sets on wood blocks. This practice of mine will probably end AS (after Stamparatus) since the wood blocks don't work so well in it. Instead of using the Stamparatus, I used my Stamp-a-ma-jig and got very satisfactory results. I was pleased, because I had to stamp it several times to get it dark enough to be seen over the Poppy Parade.
After adding a bit of adhesive on the back of the flower, I tousled some Copper Metallic Thread and embedded it into the adhesive. Then I added some Stampin' Dimensionals and popped it onto the Whisper White layer. The corner rounding and floral edges were punched with the Detailed Trio Punch, which demonstrators could order in May. Everyone else can order it beginning June 1. Besides the flower punch and corner rounder, there's a small oval for making tags. So fun!
Be sure you order your "have to have them!" items from the 2017-18 catalog now. Retiring stamp sets are only guaranteed to be available until today (May 25); all other retiring products are while supplies last.

This is a gorgeous colour combination, Buffy! And you're right – it does look like a sunset.
Thanks, Susan. And, oh, come one. You know you want to hear it! (Amelia likes to play the songs and act them out. Funny.) I still hear the "Clean Up Song" every time I straighten the house.
This is amazing Buffy. Your use of fussy cutting really created a striking color relationship between the flower and the background. Just lovely!
Thanks, Jackie – and thanks for the color combination idea!

Just Ask SJP

Those who attended #BlogHer19 Creators Summit in September left with a notebook full of useful tidbits from Sarah Jessica Parker on entrepreneurialism that won't soon be forgotten. What started out as a conversation about having the courage to switch from Chardonnay to her own recipe of Sauvignon Blanc quickly manifested into a discussion on women taking and owning their place in the business world. At BlogHer, we work tirelessly to make sure women feel celebrated, strive for social impact, and highlight entrepreneurialism. SJP eloquently contributed to our cause by encouraging our audience to speak up, join the conversation, and "just ask".
Sarah Jessica Parker entered our conference with grace and her signature melodic hello, then automatically hooked us with talks of her new "unusual" and "surprising" wine partnership, #InvivoXSJP. Although SJP does not think of herself as having a brand, she admitted to having the good fortune of being asked to participate in business ventures and the opportunity to say "yes". Typically a Chardonnay girl, Sarah Jessica Parker confirmed with her new Invivo wine, she is now comfortable moving to Sauvignon Blanc. SJP is "enormously curious about things in the world." Creating a wine, despite not having experience in the industry, offered SJP another exciting opportunity to listen, learn, ask questions, and grow as a businesswoman and entrepreneur.
Sarah Jessica Parker enters #BlogHer19 Creators Summit
The theme of gaining experience and trying new endeavors was explored throughout the entire conversation with SHE Media's CEO Samantha Skey. Sarah Jessica Parker has "crazy thoughts" (specifically, in the shower) of becoming as successful as the people she admires, no matter her background or education. SJP offered the following takeaways for women looking to learn in business and life.
Get inspired by other people's businesses and other women that are starting businesses. Be near people you admire as business professionals and as people. Sarah Jessica Parker defines these people as good, honorable people who treat their employees and colleagues well. They like to see people grow in companies and share information. They are not only employees, they are leaders.
Listen and learn from people who are good at business and absorb their knowledge because you have an interest. "You don't lose a whole lot by asking… summon courage you think you don't have." Sarah Jessica Parker exclaimed. Simply reach out. "The worst that can happen is someone disappoints you and you move on to the next person who will surprise you."
You do not need to be good in school (or at math, as SJP mentions) to be a successful person. Ask a lot of questions! Be specific with your ask instead of dodging around your goal. Be very clear that there is a transaction that your hoping for.
Make sure you're informed at all times. Be equipped to be part of the conversation. SJP discouraged side conversations and conversations without the full group. Share all information even if it's uncomfortable, challenging, or painful. Everyone wants experience and the full story to be better what their doing. The more information you have, the more time spent doing what you love doing.
Having a creative block? "Take a walk. Listen to a podcast. Turn on some classical music. Shake it off and ask yourself is the thought that you're wanting yours or somebody else's?"
https://www.instagram.com/p/B2k7C3Tpiml/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading
And then, we toasted to #InvivoXSJP. Our attendees listened in awe as Sarah Jessica Parker raised her cup:
"I would like to toast all of you and say that I'm extremely excited about everything you are doing, and working on, and dreaming about, and working toward, and ask each other for help, be good to each other, be respectful of each other, disagree with whomever your colleagues are… I'm excited about your future and what you want to do and who you want to be and we are relevant upon your ideas so thank you very much."
Sarah Jessica Parker, an Invivo toast to you! We're excited about your future, what you're working on, and dreaming about. We are so thankful we could be a tiny part of your journey.

About Write-in Candidates
Prospective write-in candidates in Illinois must file paperwork with the county clerk, or election authority, in each jurisdiction where their name will appear on the ballot.
In suburban Cook County, a write-in candidate must submit a Write-in Candidate Declaration of Intent form at the Cook County Clerk's downtown Chicago office, 69 W. Washington St., Fifth Floor.
The Clerk's office will provide a list of eligible write-in candidates to each precinct on Election Day. This list enables election judges to determine which write-in candidates are running in their precinct. Only votes for eligible write-in candidates are counted.
Voters can vote for a write-in candidate on a paper ballot or a touch screen.
Casting a vote for a write-in candidate
On a paper ballot:
Write the name of the write-in candidate on the line provided in a particular race.
Mark the corresponding oval
In single-vote races, no other votes can be cast in a race where a write-in vote was cast. In multiple-vote races, a voter may cast one or more votes for write-in candidates, but is limited to the number of votes allowed in a given race.
On a touch screen:
Press the "write-in" box at the bottom of the list of candidates. A keyboard will appear.
Type a name using the letters on the keyboard and space key to separate the first and last name.
When finished, press "OK."
Validity of write-in votes
Complete accuracy of a write-in candidate's name is not necessary as long as the election judges can determine a voter's intent to select a specific write-in candidate. There should be some relationship between the appearance or sound of the name written or printed on the ballot and that of the write-in candidate's actual name.
If there is a dispute, a majority of the election judges must agree as to the intent of the voter. If a majority agreement among the election judges cannot be reached, the write-in vote will not be counted.
