Study reveals parents and doctors failing to spot child obesity
RCGP stresses importance of accurate childhood measurement so appropriate action can be taken
More than 50% of parents fail to recognise that their children may be seriously overweight – and many health professionals share this misperception, according to research* presented at the European Congress on Obesity in Glasgow.
"Despite attempts to raise public awareness of the obesity problem, our findings indicate that underestimation of child higher weight status is very common," said the project's leader, Abrar Alshahrani, of Nottingham University.
Commenting on the findings Royal College of GP's (RCGP) chair Professor Helen Stokes-Lampard, said: "This study shows how underestimation is prevalent across the board – including among healthcare professionals – and highlights the importance of taking accurate measurements, so that appropriate and consistent interventions can be implemented to support a child to lose weight and live a healthier lifestyle.
"It also emphasises how vital it is to be frank about weight from an early age as forging healthy behaviours in early life will have a very real impact on a patient's long-term health and wellbeing into adulthood. Childhood obesity is one of the most serious health challenges of our time and one that mustn't be swept under the carpet."
The team analysed evidence from 87 previous studies that were conducted worldwide between 2000 and 2018, involving 24,774 children aged up to 19 years old and their parents.
In the study Alshahrani and colleagues analysed the assessments of parents, caregivers and healthcare professionals of children's weights and compared these with recognised medical standards for defining overweight, including measurements of height, weight and circumference of waist and hip.
Results showed that about 55% of parents underestimated the degree to which their children were overweight, while more than a third of children and adolescents also underestimated their own weight status. Healthcare professionals also shared these tendencies.
In addition, parents who were overweight themselves, and with less education, were also less likely to accurately assess their child's higher weight. The authors noted that ethnicity and cultural norms may also have an effect on parental perceptions, as some cultures prefer a larger body type and may not identify their child as overweight.
Alshahrani said recognition of parents' and health professionals' views of children's weight problems was extremely important: "The first step for a health professional in supporting families is a mutual recognition of higher weight status. This is particularly important for the children themselves, the parents, and the health professionals who look after them. Our study also found a tendency for health professionals to underestimate weight, which suggests that overweight children may not be offered the support they need to ensure good health."
Professor Stokes-Lampard said that while primary care teams will routinely talk to parents about simple lifestyle changes that can have a positive impact on their children's health, the problem is a society-wide responsibility.
"We need to work with parents, healthcare professionals, teachers, advertisers, food manufacturers, retailers, public health officials and others, in order to evoke genuine change. Now that this finding has been observed, it would be useful to see some research into the reasons why people are more likely to underestimate children's weight, so that we can start properly and effectively addressing the problem.
"Physical activity and lifestyle is a clinical priority for the College and we have developed resources to support GPs and healthcare professionals to have what can often be difficult conversations with patients about their weight, and the weight of their children."
The RCGP has also embarked on a partnership with parkrun UK, which has already seen thousands of patients – including children - take part in local running events in their communities, and it will soon be launching another scheme to support GP practices in encouraging patients to get more active.

A letter from the club's head of safety and security informed fans that they will not be welcome back at Ibrox in the future.
Rangers fans who were arrested following a pitch invasion after the Scottish Cup final in May have been told they won't be welcome back at Ibrox anytime in the future.
A letter from the club's head of safety and security, David Martin, has informed fans arrested at Hampden that they have been issued with indefinite bans from all games involving their club.
It reads: "It has been brought to my attention that you were arrested at the above match.
"As you will be aware the purchase of a match ticket is deemed to constitute unqualified acceptance of all the ground rules and regulations.
"Your arrest is a breach of these regulations and has brought the reputation of this club into disrepute. Rangers FC has made it abundantly clear it will not tolerate any form of unacceptable behaviour.
The letter comes less than 24 hours after an almost identical move from winners Hibernian, who informed supporters who had been caught up in the mayhem post match that they would also have their memberships put 'on hold' until meetings with the club took place.
Rangers season ticket holders who were held after the game have also found out that their memberships have been scrapped without a refund.


The topic of this course is the structure and evolution of stars - their birth from the interstellar medium, life on the main sequence and their spectacular late stages. We study the physical principles that determine the brightness and life span of a star. We will also look at different stages of stellar evolution and what remains after a star dies.


Medicinal plants for losing weight, improving your digestion, lowering your cholesterol, supporting your immune system… There's a plant for everything, no matter what common illness or health issue you're dealing with. We'll explain in this section which ones we recommend, what they're used for, and how to use them.
Due to its particular properties, ginkgo biloba can be used in both tea form and as a topical remedy for localized pain.
If you're going to use nettle fresh, be very careful handling it because it will sting you unless you wait about 12 hours after picking it.
Aloe vera strengthens your immune system, cleanses your body of toxins, and improves your circulation.
Spearmint leaves, known scientifically as Mentha spicata, are herbs with relaxing and medicinal properties that can relieve various problems. In addition, just as peppermint, spearmint can effectively fight bad breath.
The properties of mint tea have been known for many years. Believe it or not, there are many parts of the body that can benefit from this preparation.
Coughing is one of the defense mechanisms that the immune system activates when it notices the presence of foreign substances or pathogens that interfere with respiratory health. But do you know how to calm a cough?


any tips to make this transition easier?
I haven't got any personal experience with this. I just wanted to say that in my experience, working in a nursery talking to lots of parents going back to work, the feelings you have having are quite normal. But you have to remember that you have that added stress of moving, and away from the area which is a big step.
Although I cannot offer any practical advice I wanted to stop by to offer support. I think if you feel able to, talk to someone who you feel that you can, whether it's family or friends.
I understand how you feel, I am the same (not moving house but going back to work) think I am going back the middle of March, 3 days a week. We went to look at a nursery on Friday. It was very nice, a lot of staff, we even left Isobel with a member of staff while we had a wander orund and she was great, didn't miss me at all. I think she will be fine, it's me I'm worried about! It's perfectly normal to feel this way though. To be honest for me personally, I think it will do me good to have a balance of work and home and for lo to mix with other children. It will be hard but like all things we will soon get used to it and hardly remeber what is was like before! Then it will be time for school!

You're absolutely spot on there Picklesmum.
I felt exactly the same when I had to go back to work three days a week. I worried for months beforehand and would wake up in the night fretting about leaving her. I chose a childminder because I was afraid she would be overlooked in a larger nursery.
I went back 4 days a week in April and dreaded it but my childminder is a star, has 2 other children (older than G) and he is absolutely fine, I go to pick him up to find him sitting in the middle of the floor holding court, its lovely to watch and hes great with other kids. Im not the most confident of people and find baby groups hard so this was the only chance he got to socialise for a while. Im sure Lydia will be fine, G was, I was the one sitting outside crying!! Try a couple of half days (Am then pm) first if you can, I found it helped (me anyway) as I could get to him if I needed to and it meant he had a trial first.
Going back to work can be emotional. I've done it twice now and surprised myself how much easier it was the 2nd time! I think that's because I knew it would be ok.
It will be ok for you and Lydia too - its just a period of adjustment that's a shock to start with. Picklesmum and Bells are right though that actually, although its hard to start with it won't be long til you are seeing the benefits for you and Lydia.
However, this is one of the great things about nursery - if she's like my two, she'll soon just get in the swing of things and take the feed from whoever is doing it - partly because she'll see all the other children doing it and copy them and also because if she's hungry or thirsty she'll just do it otherwise she'll stay hungry/thirsty.
Try not to worry too much - it'll be ok, for both of you.
Actually this thread is helping me too! I was thinking a childminder for the reasons Bells said above but then I read on and saw that she changed to a nursery and I think I do prefer a nursery. It's just change isn't it? Not many people like it, I don't! But like anything else, if you do it enough it becomes the norm.
Just wanted to add, as has been said, that how you are feeling, is absolutely normal!.....I know that it may not help you now, in the anticipation of returning to work, but this bit is worse than when you actually get back to work.....once those first couple of days are out the way, it does get easier!
Just as becoming a Mum was a huge adjustment, returning to work, and juggling that with being a Mum, is another adjustment, and one that can take a bit of time and getting used to. I remember going back to work, and feeling all over the place about leaving H, and feeling I was a very different person to the one that had gone on maternity leave a year before, and I'm being honest in saying that it took me a bit of time to get my confidence in being a working Mum, and all it entails, both at home and at work....But!....H absolutely loves his day with his Grandparents, and I feel benefits hugely from being with them, and having the lovely relationship he does with them, and from the day he has with Dh (well dh and L, when I return to work this time round!).
I also found, to my great surprise, that I actually enjoyed my days at work, and being 'Laura'. And we settled down to a routine, and I really mean it when I say, it all went so much better than I thought it would!....and that exerience has made me feel so much more relaxed about the thought of returning to work next year (though again I won't pretend there won't be challenges, but I know we will get there!).
I am back 2/3 days a week and I enjoy my time away from the kids. But when we are together, it's fun all the way.
i guess all round everyone is happy.
thanks for your comments everyone. I went to do a half day on friday and it wasnt all that great. I was ok leaving lydia which was good and she did well. Previously i liked my job - but after a restructure, my whole team, including me are back in customer services which is not something im looking forward to. The travel is also a killer. An hour and a 1/2 each way by public transport so i will be working 3 days a week (a total of 22 hours plus 9 hrs travel = 31 hrs! ) which seems not great for just being £60 a week better off after paying nursery and travel costs. £60 may not sound alot to some people but to us it makes all the difference so i cant just sacrifice the £60. I am trying desperately to find someway to make £60 a week (legally :snigger . Any ideas?
Am glad all went well with leaving Lydia, that's a big positive to come out of it.
I'm with you, £60 is £60, and every penny counts!...I'm not sure if it's the sort of thing you'd be looking for/if you're thinking you'd change your job, and don't know if it fits in with your DP's hours/job etc, but would an evening/weekend job be any good? I know some Mum's go for this sort of job, as their partner is around to look after the children, so no childcare costs, which may also mean you can work less hours, to bring in the money you need (though this also needs to be weighed against the wage they are offering, to see if it's a feasible option). Jobs such as retail/supermarkets/pubs, care assistants in nursing homes are a few jobs which would offer those sort of hours (I'm not sure what/if any of that appeals, but just a few ideas of the top of my head!).
There are issues such as if you'd need to travel to the job, and getting home late at night possibly, which may pose a problem, do you drive/have access to a car? Some people use taxis, a regular reliable firm that they get to know, to get home from late night jobs, but this is a cost that would have to be factored in to your wage, and how much you would be bringing in, after this expense.
A weekend day job, could public transport be an option, if not too far from you?
These sort of working arrangements may mean you and DP see less of each other, as you work 'opposite' each other, but it can really help, if it is somethng that may work for you, in respect to childcare costs etc.
thanks for your suggestions compley. I really dont mind what kind of job i do 2bh but any income will affect CTCs so i would need to be doing more hours than what i would be at my current job as the TCs help with nursery care anyway. Think im on the job hunt for DP. He would like a new job so we'll see if we can get him something with a bit more ££.
Every child is so different Jen.
At my nursery some children are exactly as you have described L, but then other children react very differently.
Remember there is no normal. You know her better than anyone and you will know if she is happy or not.
All it means is, like you have said, is that she is content. It doesn;t mean she isn't happy to see you. You are her mum and nothing will change that.

A research partnership, based in the North of England, has been awarded a £10.1m investment from UK Research and Innovation to expand a digital pathology and artificial intelligence programme across the area.
Greg Clark, Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS), announced the investment today (Tuesday, 6 November 2018), as part of the Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund.
The successful partnership bid, led by the University of Leeds and Leeds Teaching Hospitals, embraces a network of nine NHS hospitals, seven universities and ten industry-leading medical technology companies, called the Northern Pathology Imaging Co-operative (NPIC).
Researchers from the University of Liverpool, who are a member of the partnership, welcomed the announcement of national funding which will allow the creation of a digital pathology clinical network and research programme.
Sarah Coupland, Professor in Molecular and Clinical Cancer Medicine, George Holt Chair in Pathology and Honorary Consultant Histopathologist at the Royal Liverpool University Hospital, is the lead researcher from the University of Liverpool.
Professor Coupland, said: "We are extremely grateful to UK Research and Innovation for their support. This additional funding will enable us to further increase our efforts in working with the people of Liverpool-Merseyside, the Hospital Trusts and Liverpool Health Partners to help address the serious health challenge that Cancer represents in this region.
Clinicians will then work with industry and academic researchers to make new AI systems capable of analysing digital pathology images leading to improved diagnoses for diseases, like cancer at earlier stages.
The work will stimulate AI research locally in academic and business sectors, creating jobs and supporting economic growth across Northern England.
NPIC will engage patients and the public in a programme of work about the use of anonymised images for AI research. It will also inform the development of a 'national pathology exchange' – software that allows images to be shared between NHS sites nationally so that patients can benefit from second opinions from anywhere in the UK.

Q: NSJSONSerialization Extra argument in 'error' tutorial book IOS 8 SDK Development 2nd Edition From the book IOS 8 SDK Development 2nd Edition by Chris Adamson on the end of Chapter 6.
I have an issue with the error call and how exactly I convert it from the old swift to the new swift, with do.. and try here's my block of code
func handleTwitterData (data: NSData!, urlResponse: NSHTTPURLResponse!, error: NSError!) {
    if let dataValue = data {
        var parseError : NSError? = nil
        let jsonObject : AnyObject? =  NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(dataValue, options: NSJSONReadingOptions(0), error: &parseError)
        print("JSON error: \(parseError)\nJSON response: \(jsonObject)")
} else {
    print("handleTwitterData received no data")
    }
}

A: In swift 2.0 you will not use error parameter.
If objective-c function has last parameter as NSError**, swift 2.0 remove it and mark it as a function that can throw exception.
So you do not need to write that parameter, but need to use swift exceptions syntax instead.
do {
    let jsonObject : AnyObject? = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(dataValue, options: NSJSONReadingOptions(0))
} catch {
    print("\(error)")
}

StarCruiser Ship Killers
I spent a little bit of time designing a Federation guided missile cruiser. The ship that was used in the games has been re-classified as a guided missile destroyer. Its designation is DDG150 The 150 designation is the size of its power plant.
The two designs for the guided missile cruiser are CG300 and CG330. The maximum size of a fusion power plant in the rules is 300MW. However, the battleship in the game that is being used for the Panthari Imperium has a 415MW power plant. Therefore I created a 330MW power plant to provide full power for the 300MW drive (the largest in the game), sensors, and laser weapons.
While investigating the various 2300AD websites I was able to find an excel spreadsheet for designing ships. After putting all the components into the spreadsheet, it provides all the game statistics for the ship. Using the design spreadsheet also allows you to verify that the ship has the correct volume for the design.
The two cruiser variations have a pair of 24 meter external diameter, 21 meter internal diameter counter-rotating hamster cages/spun outer hulls that are 12 meters wide. There is no artificial gravity in the game so various types of spun habitats are needed for crew health and comfort. In combat the spun habitats are stopped and locked in place. Some ship designs in the rules including the DDG150 have habitats that are on pylons that are rotated around the main hull as can be seen in the view of the DDG150 below.
The forward 12 meters of the CG's house eighteen missile bays, the bridge, the tactical operation center, life support, medical bay, and sensor equipment. The rear of the hull houses the other eighteen missile bays and drive along with part of the fusion plant. Due to upgrading the missiles, each missile bay occupies 100 cubic meters instead of the original 70 cubic meters in the rules. The fusion plant is rather large and occupies over 50% of the internal hull space extending from the rear of the ship to just past the rotating habitats. This also includes the various engineering work stations for the power plant. The image below shows the two versions of the guided missile cruiser.
The bow is to the right. The larger power plant of the CG330 requires an extra three meters of length added to the rear of the ship compared to the CG300. There are 24 laser turrets arranged in six rings of four along the length of the hull with alternating rings offset by forty-five degrees. Statistics for the ships are as follows:
CG330 CG300 DDG150
Diameter 24m 24m 21m (main hull only)
Length 54m 50m 70m
Mass 20,576 tons 18,455 tons 7,213 tons
Power Plant 330MW 300MW 150MW
Move Distance 9 9 9
Armor 9 3 1
Radiated Signature 5(8) 4(7) 4(7)
Reflected Signature 6/7 6/7 5/7
Target profile 0/1 0/1 0/2
Active Sensor 2x15 2x15 1x15
Passive Sensor 2x10 2x10 1x10
Laser Turrets 24 24 10
Missile Bays 36 36 4
Crew 177 174 100
Cost 506.27mc 462.87mc 154.12mc
The cruisers also carry four sensor drones compared to the two for the destroyer. While their cost is about three times that of the destroyer, their missile salvo is nine times more powerful. The armor of the CG330 can be penetrated, but with difficulty. It costs almost as much as a Panthari battleship, but can out run it and has much better armor. The CG300 costs about the same as a Domain battle cruiser, has half the armor, but is faster and can launch nine times as many missiles. The CG330 is more expensive, but is better armored than the Domain BC.

Encounter at Abbadon
My squadron had been dispatched to the Chrisobel star system to counter an incursion by The Domain. Tensions between The Domain and The Federation have increased recently with The Domain attempting to gain control of neutral systems on the border between The Federation and Domain. Our squadron has two president class missile ships. I command the Ethan Tavernier and our sister ship is the Louis Rosen.
The Chrisobel system has five planets and an asteroid belt. Three of the planets are gas giants, one is a rock ball, and the innermost planet, Abbadon, is a terrestrial world. We had passed the FTL gravitational limit for the Chrisobel system some time ago, had received a radio message that the system was now under the control of The Domain. As we advanced in system towards Abbadon we had detected two bogeys heading towards us. We were now approaching engagement range.
"Captain, the bogeys are now within one light minute"
"Bring our squadron up five light seconds above the elliptic and have both ships launch a sensor drone"
"Aye, Sir"
"The bogeys have altered course to our port side and have launched what appear to be two drones."
"Light up the drones and lets see what we have"
"Drones have activated sensors and we have identification, Sir. The bogeys are two Domain Planet class missile ships and the two smaller objects are sensor drones. Separation is now less than 45 light seconds"
"Launch missiles'
"Missiles launched. Approximately 20 minutes to intercept... Sensors indicate that they have launched missiles also, sir. There are eight of them headed our way. They will arrive in 20 minutes"
"Move us to starboard and prepare point defenses"
"The enemy is now at thirty light seconds. Missiles at engagement range"
As the enemy missiles approached our point defense batteries opened fire taking out two of them, but the other six targeted the Rosen ripping her to shreds. Our missiles were just as effective leaving one of the Domain ships a shattered hulk.
"Bring us around to port and launch the second drone, activate its sensors and use it as a screen to hide us from their sensors."
The enemy launched another drone also sir and is now at 20 light seconds."
"Launch another flight of missiles and target their drones"
"Missiles launched and will engage drones in ten minutes" "Drones destroyed. We have a lock on the enemy."
"Launch another flight of missiles and continue to screen us with the drone."
"Enemy ship has been hit and looks like it has lost its sensors, Sir. It is heading out system"
"Hold fire. We may need our remaining missiles. Lets pick up the drones and survivors from the Rosen."
Below is a picture that Mike took of the game. The star field is from JoAnn fabrics. They carry several different fabrics with star patterns. I found this one and another to be what I wanted and at $20 for enough material to cover a five foot by six foot table the fabric is a lot better price than the space mats that are available. The picture shows the "flight stands that are used to designate unidentified ships. ship models were placed on them when identified. Unfortunately I forgot to take pictures of the game. Fortunately Mike did take this one at the meeting.
The following diagram shows the relative positions of the two fleets during the game. The federation is black and the Domain is brown. It is not to scale. The battle lasted for 80 minutes of game time before the remaining Domain ship fled.
Photo below is from the end of the game
The ships were the Kennedy class cruiser from the game for the Federation and the Hamburg missile cruiser for the Domain. their statistics are as follows
Federation Domain
Tonnage 7213 12223
Movement 9 3
Power Plant 150Mw Fusion 65Mw Fission
Shields none 2
Armor 1 3
Active Sensors 30 light seconds 6 light seconds
Passive Sensors 20 light seconds 14 light seconds
Missiles 20 (20 damage) 24 (12 damage)
radiated signature 4(7) 6
reflected signature 7 7
point defense 5 6
As can be seen the Domain ship is slower, but better protected by armor, screens, and point defense. The Federation ship also has stealth material incorporated into its hull to cut down on its radiated signature. The values for reflected and radiated are doubled to give the additional range that is added to the active and passive sensor ranges respectively for targeting. There are no Romulan cloaking devices or similar items at this point so the presence of other ships is known, but it is necessary to use sensors to identify and precisely target opposing ships. Previous blog posts have covered the modifications to the original board game and can be found by clicking on the StarCruiser label.
Adapting Starcruiser to the Human Space Universe
Following the game I ran at the South Bay Game Club, I spent some time revising the missiles and adapting the ships from the Starcruiser game to the Human Space setting. For the previous game see starcruiser and for the background see human space
During the previous games the missile movement rate was found to be too slow with the Federation cruisers being able to outrun any of them. I was able to replace the power plants and drives in the missiles with improved and more powerful versions, increasing their movement rate to 14, while still being able to maintain a size that was close to or the same as the originals. I also found an article on one of the 2300AD web sites that included revised stats for the missiles in the game that were done using the article from Challenge Magazine 36 on the anatomy of a missile. This article is important as the missiles cannot be built using the data in the ship design manual that is included with the game. While the revised missile stats from the website article had a faster movement the fastest one was only 11. This was still too low to catch the American cruiser before the missile ran out of fuel, if the American ship decided to run before the distance was too close.
One item that was ignored when I redesigned the missiles was the hull mass. In the game and the various supplement books for the 2300AD universe most missiles are shown as pointed nose cylinders. Dimension vary from one to two meters in diameter and five to seven meters long. A modern submarine torpedo is just over half a meter in diameter and about 6 meters long.
Since space has no atmospheric resistance missiles could be any shape and do not require a strong external hull to maintain integrity as the drives in the game do not create an acceleration stress. The hull can be made of light weight plastic with some internal bracing/connectors between the components. Cost and mass would be minimal for that type of hull. As for shape, the missile could be a cylindrical can without the pointed nose, a cube, or shaped like a brick. Cubes and/or bricks would be slightly easier to store than a cylinder
Starcruiser includes ships for the French, Germans, United States, Manchuria, Russia, and several other nations. The more modern ships are in the French, US, and German fleets. Since the French had the greatest variety of ship types I assigned them to the Panthari Imperium. The US ships went to the Federation and the German ships were designated for the Domain.
The German ships are not quite as advanced as the US and French which fits with the Domain's technological status compared to the others. Their ships in the game are a battleship/battle cruiser type, a missile cruiser, a frigate, and a fighter. The supplemental books provide additional fighters.
The French ships in the game are a large battleship, a cruiser, several frigates, and a fighter. The "Ships of the French Arm" and "Invasion" books include another version of the battleship, a couple of frigates, and several fighters.
The Americans only have the missile cruiser and a fighter in the game, but a frigate was in an issue of Challenge Magazine, and a battleship was noted in the Invasion book.
The marauding aliens are covered by the invading alien ships in the game and other books. They tend to use large, heavily armored and screened ships. They do have a couple of fighters also. Their heavier ships are 70,000 to 74,000 tons, their intermediate sized ship is 47,000 tons, and their smallest warship is 13,000 tons. This compares to the Panthari battleship at 60,000 tons, the Domain battle cruiser at 27,000 tons, and the Federation cruiser at 7200 tons. The Federation cruiser should probably be re-designated as a missile frigate.
The ships for the other nations in the game will be used for the various unaligned worlds as needed.
There is another spacefaring alien race in the books. They use organic technology and their ships are living creatures. At this point they are not included in the Human Space setting.
I ran a game at last weekend's Miniature Wargaming Society of Sacramento meeting using the increased missile movement rate. The game matched a pair of the Federation missile cruisers against a pair of Domain missile cruisers. The after action report for that game will be in the next blog post.

Emmanuelle Moureaux (born 1971) is a Tokyo based French architect and designer who is known for implementation of color throughout her designs. Emmanuelle fell in love with Shimura, an outskirt city of Tokyo, Japan, while doing research for her thesis and has lived there since 1996. She founded emmanuelle moureaux architecture + design in 2003. The concept driving all of her work is shikiri, which literally means "dividing and creating space through colors." Emmanuelle created this concept of using color as a three dimensional element that can create space rather than a finish applied to surfaces as an afterthought.

Emmanuelle has many works in architecture including the Shugamo Shinkin Bank Shimura Branch, but also designs art instillations, interiors, and products. Despite her work varying in category, scale, and stature, color is ever-present.  100 Colors is an art instillation series that implements color in ways that fortify shikiri. Even though nearly all of the installations share a common concept, each one is unique and successful in its own. Emmanuelle hopes to create emotion through color and allow people to experience color through touch and feel as well. This will show that colors can not only make space, but also create a space with additional layers of human emotion.

Election won, Albanese is heading to Japan
Phillip CooreyPolitical editor
Incoming prime minister Anthony Albanese's decision to put on hold the formation of his new government so he can travel to Japan for top-level security talks was an important marker about continuing Australia's commitment to regional order.
Mr Albanese and foreign minister-designate Penny Wong will fly to Tokyo at midday on Monday, just hours after they are sworn in, to attend the meeting of the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue with the leaders of the United States, India and Japan.

Mr Albanese will also have bilateral meetings with each Quad member before flying home on Wednesday.
US President Joe Biden was among foreign leaders to phone Mr Albanese on Sunday to congratulate him, while Senator Wong's US counterpart Antony Blinken said the change of government would not affect the relationship between the two nations.
"Australia is a vital ally, partner, and friend of the United States. For more than seven decades, our alliance has been a force for good in the world, and we look forward to the next 70 years," he said in a statement.
"Together, the United States and Australia will continue to work shoulder-to-shoulder to advance security and prosperity in the Indo-Pacific and around the globe."
Mr Albanese's Indian and Japanese counterparts, Narendra Modi and Fumio Kishida, also congratulated Mr Albanese.
Senator Wong said she and Mr Albanese would take to the meeting a package of measures Labor promised before the election to boost foreign aid, climate action and diplomatic ties in the region with the aim of pushing back at China's influence.
"Travelling to the Quad meeting in week one signifies how important we believe this partnership is for our security," she said.
"And we will be taking new energy and much more to the table – including our commitment to act on climate change after a lost decade.
"Our Quad partners are counting on us to play our part to help make our region more stable, prosperous and secure."

Growth is a must for most companies, whether it's mature organizations or startups. However, many tend to forget that as much as scaling can contribute to their business success, it can also be destructive. Positive changes in earnings, cash flow, reinvestment processes, and overall expansion are common indicators of growth, but often, companies get overwhelmed and fail to spot when these changes aren't for the good.
So what can cause unhealthy scaling?
In 2003, Crumbs Bake Shop opened their doors for the first time in Manhattan to sell their signature cupcakes. At the time, cupcakes were New York's favorite type of baked good, so the brand was rapidly earning the support of celebrities and the media. The business was expanding and enjoyed high demand for their premium baked goods.
According to the New York Times, the company went public through a $66 million merger with the 57th Street General Acquisition Corporation in 2011, and by 2013, they operated in 70 locations. Physical expansion and aggressive sales strategies remained a top priority, but a year later, unable to compete and retain customers' interest, Crumbs Bake Shop filed for bankruptcy and closed their doors. They had a reincarnation in recent years, although their net income growth stood at -92.22% as of March 2014 and currently have a small online order cupcake business.
Despite the bakery spotting a good business opportunity at the right time when their niche product was on the verge of popularity, once the trend was gone, there was little to offer. By the time the bakery expanded geographically, they struggled to make a commercial success of their own growth, and instead continued pushing for the wrong opportunities. The all-time highest share price managed to reach $13.5 ($13 per share at IPO) and plunged to 27 cents (as of June 2014).
A lesson to learn from Crumbs Bake Shop is that new product trends occur as fast as they fade, and if a company is unable to innovate, but pushes for further expansion, this can simply accelerate failure. Also, the company overlooked an opportunity of expanding into the digital space, so whilst competitors were setting up online stores and delivery services, Crumbs Bake Shop chose to focus on their physical presence.
As essential as growth is, it's never the only element that contributes to a company's success.
Before evaluating the potential of a business strategy and measuring a company's capabilities in the market, there must be a clear understanding of a company's purpose, such as how scaling and strategic instruments are going to fit together without a conflict, so growth is manageable.
Today, there is an increasing number of companies, especially in the tech sector, who are designed for quick growth. Smart ones always have a purpose to follow which can help them to manage this rapid growth. A company's purpose should never be confused with business targets or financial goals, instead, it serves to answer questions like: 'Why is this company on the market?', 'What is this company trying to achieve on a global scale?' and 'Is this purpose clear on all levels, including employees, investors, and the C-suite?' Answering these make for a more achievable and planned growth.
Take Google as an example. Their mission statement says: 'Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful.' If we break it down, Google offers their products globally, which fulfills the 'universal access' part. In order to organize large amounts of data, Google maintains databases, uses existing algorithms and develops new ones to deliver requested data accurately and provide reliable services.
As technology and users' needs evolve, the company also recognizes their need for continuous innovation. One of the examples, Google's introduction of speech recognition products, where the OK Google search engine extension and Google Home voice assistant hardware have become relatively successful whilst also fulfilling the company's purpose and accelerating growth.
In today's business environment, business set up costs are increasingly lower than in the past, thanks to digitization and high demand for software, applications, and online services. This explains why so many tech companies don't mind growing exponentially - their operational expenses are lower, but profit margins are higher, so volatility risk is comparatively low. However, many don't realize that this formula cannot be applied in all cases, so companies often miss or ignore high volatility and grow as fast as they can, in the hopes of increasing their valuation and retaining interest for future investments.
Even though Airbnb, Uber, and Facebook can afford exponential growth, it would be wrong to think that their model can become commonplace. A company can only survive growing exponentially if their profits are capable of scaling rapidly. This means long term success rather than over a few quarters.
The best growth is reliable, steady, and stable - it's not what everyone can achieve, but it's something everyone should be aiming for.

We loved staying in the house, all the kids loved it and it suited young children well.
My family and I loved the house , it is in a great location , is clean and tidy and has everything you need . We loved going to lake Mackenzie and Indian head .
It's always wonderful to hear that our guests had a great time on this beautiful island. We hope you return soon.
Magnificent on arrival, during our stay & even sad to leave. The website explains exactly what is available but seeing, experiencing and believing takes it up a few more notches. This home is spectacular. Where to start. Comfortable, quiet and an oasis from the island activities. It's so warm and cosy to return to every day. Nights are quiet. Views are beautiful from the upper deck. As we said how could this get any better - then cue the whales! What a great stay. Highly recommended and still provides value for the family.
Great to hear that you enjoyed your stay and thanks to the whales for turning up on time.
Perfect house, perfect location. It's a gem!
Our background: an extended family holiday with 3 generations (6adults) staying at Fraser Jewels for 6 nights. The youngest guest was 12months old and oldest members of the party were in the early 60's. Two 4wd vehicles as part of the group on our first trip to Fraser.
- fantastic house layout. There is a single carpark under the house and enough space for another vehicle to be parked behind it. Up the stairs & on the first floor there are 3 generous sized bedrooms including a massive master with an ensuite (plenty of room for our portacot for bub), a common bathroom, separate toilet, separate laundry with washer & dryer. Then you go up another flight of stairs to the top level and there's yet another toilet (so you dont have to go downstairs), a beautiful loungeroom with two HUGE 3 seater couches which means there is plenty of space for all guests to sit, a huge deck looking out to the beach and a kitchen which had absolutely everything we needed to prepare and cook meals - nothing missing. The fridge was big so we could store our cold food supplies for the week easily (we had frozen some of our meat so that was easy to store in freezer too).
- great location in a well looked after complex. Just a short walk or 60 second drive north to Eurong for supplies if you need them. Good location for accessing inland lakes too. The complex's pool is just lovely. There are 3 BBQs by the pool to use too. There is a little playground in the complex for kids and a grassy area with a hose to give your car a wash or rinse if needed.
- owners are lovely. Jacky gave me a call when I requested the booking so that was fabulous to touch base over the phone rather than just email. The house is well stocked with cleaning products plus bits & bobs in the kitchen such as glad wrap. Jacky was genuinely concerned about us having a wonderful time and her care was appreciated. It is a special place for Jacky & her family and Fraser Jewels was a special and perfect place for our first stay on Fraser Island.
- the house is in Eurong Second Valley. It is just south of Eurong. Takes 30min approx from Mantaray Barge at Inskip Point.
