Since display advertising is not much different from text advertising, the best practices generally work for both. You will see in this article the four key points to apply when you decide to advertise on Google AdWords. Nothing too fancy, just common sense.
Try to use a call to action statement such as "learn more", "buy now" or "visit our site today". Try to clarify as much as possible your call to action so that the visitors quickly understand exactly what it is you expect of them. For Display ads, avoid writing your call to action statement in large font with three exclamation marks.
Advertisements such as "THIS IS A SUPER PRODUCT !!! CLICK HERE !!!" will indeed catch the eye but are often judged as too aggressive by Internet users; therefore this ad format will not attract clicks. However, you can slightly increase the text size and change the font color to attract more attention.
You can also use temporal terms to give a sense of urgency. For example, the terms "Flash sales", "Last places available", "Before 5 o'clock" (etc.) will strongly pique the curiosity of Internet users. Remember: everyone is looking for a bargain. Be careful, however, that your offer is actually time sensitive because once they arrive at your site, your visitors will try to find out exactly what your special offer consists of. The practice of attracting them under false pretenses (false time window) will give them the feeling of being tricked and they will probably leave your site without buying anything (you will still have paid for their click). Like this, you also run the risk of promoting a bad image on your site.
The display URL is a very important component of your ad, whether it be a text ad or a display ad. We suggest you highlight the name of your company (or website) in order to inform users of the site on which they will land. This will avoid unnecessary clicks (paid ones!) if users are looking for a different site than yours.
For text ads, selecting the keywords that make up the display URL will affect the quality of your ad, and therefore the cost-per-click (CPC) of your keywords. Again, make sure your display URL includes relevant keywords relative to your ad and your landing page.
For display ads, you have more space to view your information. You should show your logo and the name of your company to increase your notoriety. Do not forget that display ads are mainly used to increase your presence on the Internet. Even if the ultimate goal is to get people to your visit site or sell your products, repeating your message as a logo or slogan increases the chances that users will end up clicking on your ads.
Your message needs to be as clear as possible and you have to get straight to the point. Choose the information you want to display, its level of importance, and its location. Keep in mind that this ad may the first contact between your company and your potential customer; and that internet users are faced with thousands of ads each day.
Why should they click on your ad instead of the other 500 ads they see? We recommend that you include detailed information such as pricing, delivery information, and relevant special offers in order to differentiate yourself from your competitors.
Analyzing the ads from your competition often gives a good idea of what you can offer to be different as well as the feeling you want to give off. Did you click on their ads? Yes? No? For what reasons? Be inspired by what they do well and improve on what was not done so well. Remember that the hot topic word when creating and managing online ads is "TEST! ". It is often necessary to test several scenarios to arrive at an effective ad. It very often happens that the ads that work best are not the ones that we would have thought about first.
As explained above, the landing page must be consistent with your ad. Indeed, your ad has the sole purpose of attracting the visitor to your site so that they complete the action you want from them. Therefore, if your landing page has nothing to do with your ad, not only will you not convert your visitors to customers, but you will still pay for their click.
Just like the information on your ad, the elements that make up your landing page should also be carefully chosen. Once you arrive on your page, what actions do you want your visitors to complete? If you want to fill out a contact form, be clear and insert a new call to action prompting them to fill out the form. Give them some more information than what is contained in the advertisement, but above all make sure to continue to provoke their interest and curiosity.
The key point is to properly dish out the amount of information present on the landing page. Your visitors will have no interest in contacting you if all the information they need is already on the page. On the other hand, they will probably not contact you if the information you give them is too vague or if they do not fully understand the value of performing the action you expect from them.
We have seen in this article that every element that makes up your ad must be carefully chosen. The more relevant your message is to a visitor's search, the more customers you will convert. Do not try to go too fast and neglect these important key points; remember, you only have one chance to make a good first impression. However, you should also test out several scenarios and analyze the results after two to three weeks. This is the time it takes to get a clear overview of your ad performance because an ad can work fine in the first few days and taper off afterwards. If you apply the mantra "relevance, patience, and test", your campaigns will surely get good results.

Just a few pictures from Open Streets ICT a few weeks ago… But first, what is it exactly? Open Streets ICT is a FREE community-building event that closes a Douglas Avenue to traffic and opens it for biking, walking, running, dancing, yoga, and more! Everyone is welcome to join in the fun, and to stop at the local businesses, restaurants, and street vendors along the four-mile stretch.
We started our day with breakfast at our usual place, Dempsey's Biscuit Co, which also happens to be along the route.
Here are some pictures of our delicious breakfast.
We decided meet up for breakfast later than usual. Normally we go when Dempsey's Biscuit Co first opens at nine o'clock but decided to go later that day so we could move right into Open Streets ICT mode. We didn't think of the street being blocked because the official street closing was advertised from noon to five o'clock in the afternoon. However, they started closing the streets earlier that day and our cars almost got trapped in the Dempsey's Biscuit Co parking lot (except for Jeff who planned ahead and arrived on his bike). Good thing Brian knew his way around the neighborhood.
After breakfast Brian and I took off and parked our car in my work parking lot. My office building is a long the route and right in the thick of the action.
We also purposely planned it this way because there's a Bike Share ICT station right outside my office and our plan was to use my promo code for 2 hours of FREE bike rental. You can cover more ground and you get to see so much more by biking rather than being on foot.
We ran into one of Brian's Edward Jones coworkers, Brandi. She had a tent along the path, right by the Alzheimer's Association office.
There was FREE outdoor yoga on Douglas and Pattie.
There were lots of people walking and biking and there were vendors everywhere.
They even had sections of street blocked off for games such as pickle ball.
We would have taken more pictures but it was difficult to do so while riding the bikes. We only took photos at stops along the way. And, we didn't really have enough time to see everything because we had to set aside enough time to get out of downtown so I could make it back to Andover for my two o'clock Zumba class.
There were four main hubs with lots of activities besides what's pictured above. The City of Wichita even had a dunk tank featuring Mayor Jeff Longwell. There was also plenty to do in between hubs.
Though we missed the event last year because we just couldn't squeeze it into our busy schedule, we heard it was a huge success so we did our best to squeeze it in this year. Next year I may have to sub out my Zumba class because I didn't feel like we had enough time to take it all in.
Anyway, Open Streets ICT is one of those events/initiatives that we hope the city continues year after year because it's a huge hit and people love it.

Animals / Children / Research
Humans are not the only view to which grandmothers help raise offspring
December 12, 2019 - by admin - Leave a Comment
It is known that in the animal world — among tens of thousands of mammals, birds, fish and amphibians — only a few individuals reach adulthood. Moreover, after losing the ability to bear offspring (menopause), survive, not all females. However, according to a study published in the journal PNAS, menopause has its advantages, and use them not only people. So, cetaceans, including belugas, narwhals and orcas are attracted to help in the upbringing of offspring grandmothers. It turned out that menopause dramatically increases the survival chances of the young generation.
It turned out, grandma killer whales help their parents raise offspring
Another confirmation of the "grandmother hypothesis"
By studying the data on populations of killer whales in Washington state in the United States and British Columbia in Canada, the researchers found that the mortality rate of newborn calves increased immediately after the death of the grandmothercompared to the pups whose grandmothers were alive. Research suggests that orcas Mature age, which do not multiply, increase the chances of offspring survival. Scientists came to the conclusion that the life of the grandmother after menopause is important for her family group. Moreover, the results of the study can be an important factor in assessing future populations of these mammals. Note that today the population of whales continues to decline, so the researchers believe that the role of grandmothers is likely to become even more important. Female orcas reach sexual maturity around 10 years and cease to reproduce at the age from 30 to 40 years. While in the wild they can live much longer: from 80 to more than 100 years.

Previous studies showed that a limited reproductive period entails less competition for the search of sustenance for offspring. It turned out that grandmothers, whales are seen as leaders. Moreover, they know best hunting grounds, and equipment.
Orcas have demonstrated the advantages of menopause
These benefits can be attributed to "grandmother hypothesis," which suggests that menopause creates generation wiser family members, which contributes to the overall well-being of their relatives. However, researchers believe that it is not so easy, as in other animals, such as elephants, there are also grandmothers who care for their grandchildren. However, they do it for their own children.
The study team found that within two years after the death of the maternal grandmother, the probability of young orcas dying was 4.5 times higher than orcas live with their grandmothers in postmenopausal women, and 1.5 times higher than that of the orcas, whose grandparents were in the reproductive age.
More exciting stories from the world of scientific discoveries are looking for on our channel in Yandex.Zen.
Scientists believe that when grandparents support their own children, their movement and activities is limited and unable to support the same as orcas in postmenopausal women. Perhaps menopause has evolved in killer whales for these reasons. To better understand the relationship between different generations of killer whales, in the future, scientists intend to use drones.

Big Money for Buses & A Bubbly Bandit Gets Busted
Posted by The Argonaut | Dec 21, 2016 | Inside Santa Monica, News, Santa Monica | 0 |
By Beige Luciano-Adams
Editor's Note: Inside Santa Monica is a new occasional column offering readers a quick survey of issues and events impacting the city.
Jean Valjean, Bon Vivant
Santa Monica police recently ran down a young man gripping a bottle of champagne — who immediately apologized and allowed a search of his bulging backpack, where officers discovered another five bottles, all bearing security sensors and labels from Vons. All in, $617 worth of bubbly. And $1,000 bail.
Stealing bread is classic, pragmatic, righteous; stealing champagne is a spirited wink, a whimsical peccadillo. The gross travesties of our criminal justice system aside, perhaps there should be a get-out-of-jail-free card for repentant holiday champagne thieves.
A Big Blue Boost
Developers and mobility advocates are already jockeying for position in the $120-billion work schedule funded by the recent half-cent sales tax increase to fund prodigious public transit overhaul throughout L.A. County.
While speculation about public-private partnerships orbits massive undertakings like the Sepulveda Pass (currently slated for 2024), the most immediate effects may be seen in local returns and boosts to existing transit lines: Santa Monica's financially struggling Big Blue Bus will be getting a cash infusion of nearly $9 million to help fund expanded service around the Expo Line.
The federal government's Near Zero Engine Incentive Program is also extending an $870,000 reward to upgrade the fleet's clean fuel engines. And, starting Jan. 1, riders ages 5 to 18 will be able to buy a monthly pass for $19 — thanks to a pilot program approved by the city earlier this month.
Even More Movement
Plans for a new Rapid Transit Bus along Lincoln Boulevard from Santa Monica to LAX — currently slated for the faraway galaxy of 2043 — could be moved up, according to Move LA Director Denny Zane, who says "Metro staff is pretty focused on finding acceleration strategies."
And at the top of Metro's Expenditure Plan, the Airport Metro Connect / 96th Street Station (and future access to the planned Automated People Mover) inches closer to its projected 2018 groundbreaking with the recent approval of a final environmental impact report.
Winterer Is Coming
City Council members have unanimously voted in Councilmember Ted Winterer as Santa Monica's next mayor, replacing Tony Vasquez, with Councilmember Gleam Davis to serve as mayor pro tempore.
Winterer received a warm welcome from Santa Monica Chamber of Commerce members the following day at their holiday party, held at the tony Jonathan Club. "Here the business community is a partner with government," he said, noting their mutual interest in ensuring "quality of life for residents and visitors."
New Year, New Rights
The city's aforementioned focus on quality of life issues arguably also extends to local workers, who can look forward to new rights in 2017 when the city implements requirements for employers to expand paid sick leave from the state minimum of 24 hours to 32 or even 40 hours per year.
Employees will accrue one hour for each 30 worked, with sick leave starting to accrue after the first 90 days of employment. For businesses with fewer than 26 employees, it will be 32 hours starting in January and 40 in 2018; for larger operations, 40 hours this January and 72 the following year.
The change comes as part of the city's move to bring minimum wage increases in line with Los Angeles city and county, incrementally, to $15 by the year 2020. The first 50-cent increase, to $10.50, took effect in July.
Against pushback from some in the business community, officials said they did their best to mandate the changes incrementally.
"Northern California and Seattle are ahead of us on this, and the sky has not fallen in either of those places," City Manager Rick Cole said in October. "There is no question it is harder on mom-and-pops, which is why we postponed implementation for [those businesses] for a year, and we will be working with them. But they also have to compete in the labor market."

Dealing with again ache conditions and sciatica signs can affect all areas of your life, and this is also true of travel plans and vacations. In case you are traveling with more than two individuals, you could need to think about either traveling very light so you'll be able to fit all the things within the trunk, or utilizing an SUV or van in your trip. Sorry it took me so long to reply, however we have been traveling in New Mexico and out of contact for some time. As far as exchanging foreign currency for rupees, travelers should do so by way of a financial institution exchange counter or approved agent, equivalent to these situated in some main hotels. So, come alongside and discover among the coolest and nicest traveling bars that I may discover. To travel in style, one doest want to carry big suitcases that make folks suppose you could have left home for good. Whenever you discern effectively what to bring, you typically are in a position to travel gentle and nonetheless go round in style. Some of these teardrop trailers are past cute…they are absolutely adorable. Nonetheless, since an RV is a automobile, they do have to buy car insurance.
It's at all times a worry the place to place cash when traveling at the very least some of it so you don't end up fully broke if something occurs. I have by no means found them to be items I might need to travel in, despite the fact that they are simple to tow, etc. Since a leisure vehicle shouldn't be considered to be a dwelling for insurance functions, individuals do not want householders or flood insurance. You'll find some great moveable kettles for travelling right here which make great gifts for people who travel rather a lot or for yourself.
Travel is a great, easy and cheap advertising and marketing instrument for your travel enterprise. On the upside, the hotel supplied a travel cot, and my enduring reminiscence of that night is of my nine-month-old child bouncing in that cot with an infinite grin on her gorgeous face. I can walk to the native station so it's actually convenient…far more so than air travel. Thanks for providing such a wealth of medical travel tips in your readers with persistent back pain or sciatica.
One thing that I have discovered actually useful is ensuring to carry a travel blanket and pillow, some healthy snacks, and if potential a type of fast immersion water heaters that help you warmth your own comfort soup/drink. Gives ample protection and only weighs eleven ounces, it's probably one of the most compact travel blankets you will see that, it suits into a cylinder seven inches long by 4 inches in diameter. I might like more information on taking a street journey traveling with a camper or in an RV. I don't need to stay in inns or motels. Once I was caring for my aged Mother, Gertie, our travel bar was by no means far-off at comfortable hour.
Not having traveled abroad I can still say you have given a thorough guidelines for travelers who accomplish that. There are three ways in which your dog can travel with the Airways: In the cabin with you, As checked baggage and As cargo. Tracy brings her travel experience to Nest by Tamara together with her stellar travel reviews. Good Sam Club presents warranty insurance coverage that may pay the payments for newer units. A travel journal (or travel blog) can come in handy right now, especially when there are belongings you forgot about, or if you end up requested a query you aren't positive how one can reply. You'll by no means know and its doubts like that which make bringing your own travel kettle for hotel stays all of the extra interesting. Prize consists of: A visit for two to Zanzibar with Mango, Gold Zanzibar and Positive Travel. Update: 3MAY13: I introduced our travel bar with me on my month long trip to Tucson.


Don't really care about Sonya, but I like how Skarlet looks minus the aviator head gear and her moves are sick.
I never had her DLC in MK9 but so far I'm most hyped for her. Short hair version best version.
Anyone worried about shorter combos should watch this. He sets the AI to very hard and she hits 8 hit combos pretty regularly, being that they've taken the combo breakers out I think 8 hits is more than fine lol. Plus if you watch the pro players one of them was doing something like 11 hit combos with Sonya.
Have they announced the roster outside of what was shown a few days ago? I've looked around but couldn't really find anything. There's a rumor Kabal is coming back which I hope cause I enjoyed playing him and got pretty good with him.
They will be doing a kombat kast, yeah that's how they spell it on the 30th and when they announced that at the reveal event a character ran across the screen really fast so they'll be showing him off that day. I don't know if you saw the characters in the trailer but Liu Kang, Kung Lao, Cassie Cage and Kitana were shown so I'm sure they are in. I'm hoping that Rain, Noob and Shang Tsung make it back in somehow.
As amazing as the gameplay looks they've also done a great job in other areas of the presentation, the silhouettes fighting while you pick an arena is an awesome touch.
I think Rousey is good looking but the capture is just odd.
Yeah they didn't scan Rousey for the game she's just doing the voice acting, I don't know who they did the facial scan of.
The final round of this clip ends with a Toasty Brutality.
I'd be surprised if Rain is in it but you never know.
That looked awesome I hadn't seen that video yet, thanks for pointing it out.
Yeah even if he's DLC I'd be fine with it, he's always a highly requested character though and they seem to be focusing on fan favorites in this game according to Ed Boon so hopefully he made the cut. His art work being in the menu is a good sign but sub-zero having a purple shader on one of his outfits and one of Rain's special moves being a modifier in the towers of time could be considered strikes against him being in too.
All I want is Ashy-Slashy, the one who came up with that idea here is a genius, it's all I can think of now.
Yeah I used him quite a bit and ended up liking him. I hope he does end up in game.
The one fighter I haven't seen pit heard yet was Reptile.
That Maximillion guy was saying the game has adopted a more Street Fighter kind of poke/defense style, and is a bit more strategic and less aggressive. He didn't like that. As for me- if they can tap into some SF, I'm all good with that.
I think the youtubers are upset because they have to learn to adapt and won't be doing 15 hit combos right out of the gate. Personally I never once used the run button in MKX and I wasn't a huge combo stringer either so it's going to be business as usual for me lol.
I'm guessing the issue they're trying to address is uneven dominance especially if people are getting corner comboed almost the entire round. It seems like in MK11 the stages are even wider as well so it takes longer to get pushed against the wall. Think Erron Black with repeated corner command grabs and combos.
I never used the run button either, but I did start to put together corner combos to some extent with Raiden.
What I would like to see is characters able to achieve combos without relying on the corner. It seems to me that instead of Run, these characters have a lot of dynamic moves they can chain together to move around their enemy attacking from all sides, especially Scorpion with his teleport. People need to consider how well Gerus moves about the stage both applying pressure and also able to evade attacks.
Raiden needs some Toasty finishers. Just do what Scorpion is doing,but with lightning.
I would buy this if they remade the originals in this way.
Fantastic. I don't remember the animation and detail being that good even in the arcade... Too bad there are no CPU baddies.
Oh yeah that smashed what the arcade version looked like, those people are/were doing a great job.

An Erudite Man of Letters
It is not easy to summarize the life's work of a prolific scholar such as the late professor Mohammad Dja`far Mahdjoub who was considered by his peers to be an authority on a number of different but related literary fields. Whether writing for scholarly journals, translating Arabic literary works into Persian, doing research in the field of Persian classical literature, or editing and annotating old Persian manuscripts, he aimed at perfection. However, it was in the area of Persian folklore and popular culture that he was recognized as the foremost authority. Indeed, he led the way for the recognition, by the academia, of Persian folklore as one of the major branches of Persian literary tradition and scholarship.
Mahdjoub's doctoral dissertation on "The Khorasani Style in Persian Poetry," which was published in 1966, was the first serious work on the subject. His later collaboration with the renowned literary quarterly Sokhan, as a writer and literary critic, lasted for many years during which time he also published a number of his translations of a number of French and English novels.
His major editorial works include the annotated versions of Kalilah va Demnah and Vis va Ramin which is perhaps the oldest and the most sensual love story in Persian poetry. Farhang-e Loghat va Estelahat-e `Amiyaneh [Dictionary of Vernacular Terms and Expressions], in collaboration with Ali Akbar Dehkhoda, and Afarin Ferdowsi [Praise Ferdowsi], a collection of articles about the stories of the great Persian epic, are among his many monograms published in the earlier part of his prolific scholarship.
It was, however, in his search for the lost art of naqqali [story-telling] and folkloric traditions that Mahdjoub made his greatest scholarly contribution to the field of Persian literature. With the publication of a new version of Amir Arsalan-e Namdar, which included comprehensive introduction and extensive explanatory notes, Mahdjoub unveiled the unknown author, origins and sources of this ancient fable to its avid readers.

\section{Introduction}

Apart from being of physical relevance in itself, the Positronium
system provides a testing ground for the effective field theory (EFT) concepts and techniques devised
in the study of radiative decay amplitudes, that could eventually be applied to
the description of the more intricate radiative decays of heavy quarkonia ($Q\bar{Q}\to X \gamma$).
An example of the latter is provided in this talk, where we analyze the region of
photon energies $\omega\sim m\alpha$ ({\it soft-energy} region) in the radiative decay of a heavy fermion-antifermion system
through the study of
the $3\gamma$ decay of
the Positronium spin triplet ground state (orthopositronium: o-Ps). In particular we show that
in this regime
the next-to-leading order (NLO) corrections to the direct decay photon spectrum of a color singlet
$Q\bar{Q}$ pair in angular-momentum configuration $^3 S_1$  are just given by the corresponding
correction to the o-Ps photon spectrum up to a trivial color factor.
The soft-energy
region is accessible in the o-Ps$\to 3\gamma$ decay because one of the final state photons can
have an arbitrarily small energy, the other two being hard photons with
energy $\mathrel{\raise.3ex\hbox{$<$\kern-.75em\lower1ex\hbox{$\sim$}}} m$.
The process can be then viewed as the radiative version of the o-Ps$\to X$ decay, where $X=2\gamma$.

The computation of the ${\cal O}(\alpha)$ corrections to the o-Ps spectrum in the soft-energy region can be
considerably simplified using EFT methods or through the asymptotic expansion of the
relevant 1-loop diagrams. While the latter technique generalizes straightforwardly to the corresponding
computation for quarkonium radiative decays, the EFT framework naturally explains
the origin of the dominant term as a consequence of the non-relativistic nature of the system.

\section{NRQED computation of the o-Ps decay spectrum for $\omega \ll m$}
\label{sec:NRQED}

The Non-Relativistic QED (NRQED) framework used in Refs.~\cite{Manohar:2003xv,RuizFemenia:2008zz} provides a systematic way to compute
bound state effects in the the o-Ps decay spectrum when the
photon energy is much smaller than the electron mass.
Contrary to the usual relativistic approach where the 3-photon annihilation is considered to take
place at very short distances as compared to the range of the electromagnetic binding force between $e^+e^-$,
the non-relativistic description takes into account that there is a long-distance part
in the o-Ps decay process when one the photons in the final state is not
hard ($\omega\ll  m$). In the latter case, the decay proceeds in two steps:
the low-energy photon is first radiated from the bound state, making a
transition from the C-odd ground state o-Ps (${}^3S_1$) to a C-even Positronium state $n$,
which subsequently decays into two photons (see the EFT graph of Fig.~\ref{fig:NRQEDgraph}).
The emission of the low energy photon from o-Ps is
described by the Coulomb Hamiltonian of the $e^+e^-$ system
in interaction with a quantized electromagnetic field~\cite{Manohar:2003xv,RuizFemenia:2008zz}.

Since the computation of the photon spectrum in Ref.~\cite{Manohar:2003xv} was intended
for photon energies comparable to the Positronium binding energy, $\omega\sim m\alpha^2$,
the interaction Hamiltonian was used in the dipole approximation limit. This approximation
amounts to evaluating the photon vector potential $\mathbf{A}$ in the center of mass of the
Positronium system, which is fully legitimate for radiated photons with wavelengths
much larger than the characteristic size of the Positronium atom ($a=2/m\alpha$).
Higher order multipoles arise as a Taylor series in the relative coordinate $\mathbf{x}$ and
are suppressed by powers of $\omega/a$ under the assumption that the relevant amplitudes
one has to compute involve integrations to spatial extents of order $\sim a$.
For photons with larger energies,
$\omega\gg m\alpha^2$, this premise will invalidate the use of the
multipole expansion.

However, in the case of the o-Ps system that undergoes a radiative transition
before decaying, and as it was properly pointed out by Voloshin~\cite{voloshin},
the scale $1/a$ does not constraint the maximum photon energy for which we can
apply the multipole expansion. The reason is that after the soft photon is radiated we have to
consider all possible $e^+e^-$ intermediate states with the right quantum numbers. The
propagation of these $e^+e^-$ states is described by the Green function obtained from
the Coulomb Hamiltonian,
\begin{eqnarray}
\left( H_C + {\kappa^2 \over m} \right)   G\left( \mathbf{x}, \mathbf{y}, \kappa \right) = \delta\left( \mathbf{x} - \mathbf{y} \right)\,,
\end{eqnarray}
at energy $\kappa^2/m \simeq  \omega-E_0$.
Since the annihilation of the
intermediate $e^+e^-$ pair into two photons takes place at small distances,
the amplitude for the full process is thus given by a convolution of the o-Ps
ground state and the Green function. In coordinate space, the Green function
has a characteristic size ruled by the exponential factor $\exp(-\kappa r)$.
We note that for soft photons of energy $m\alpha^2\ll \omega \ll m$, this exponential
factor constrains the relevant integration region to distances of order
$\kappa^{-1}\sim  1/\sqrt{m \omega}$, much smaller than the spatial extent
of the initial Positronium atom. Therefore, the characteristic distance that
enters in the multipole expansion of the soft-photon emission in
the o-Ps$\to 3\gamma$ decay amplitude is determined by the
falloff of the intermediate Green function rather than by the size of
the Ps atom, so the series of multipoles is actually
an expansion in powers of $\omega r\sim \sqrt{\omega/m}$ which
can be used as long as $\omega\ll m$. Note also that for the intermediate
pair, an iterative computation of the Coulomb Green function,
$G=G^{f}+G^{f} V_C G^{f}+\dots$,
with $G^{f}$ the free Green function,
shows that adding a Coulomb exchange generates a term
$$\int d^3\mathbf{x} \,V_C\,G^{f} \sim {\alpha m\over \kappa}\sim \alpha\sqrt{{m \over \omega}}\ll 1\,,
\quad \mbox{for}\quad m\alpha^2\ll \omega\ll m\,,
$$
as $G^{f}\sim m\exp(-\kappa r)/r$.
Therefore the Coulomb interaction can be treated perturbatively in the
virtual $e^+e^-$ system after soft photon radiation.  The soft-energy region
$m\alpha^2\ll \omega \ll m$
thus separates the regime where binding effects become essential,
from the hard-energy region, where the details of the bound state dynamics are irrelevant.

The NRQED result for the photon energy spectrum in this region, up to NLO reads~\cite{RuizFemenia:2008zz,voloshin}:
\begin{eqnarray}
{ {\rm d}\Gamma_{\rm oPs} \over  {\rm d}x }  &=&{2 m \alpha^6 \over 27 \pi}
\left[ 5x -\frac{14}{3}\,\alpha\sqrt{x} +  {\cal{O}}(\alpha x) \right]
\,,
\label{eq:1}
\end{eqnarray}
with $x=\omega/m$. The LO term of the NRQED spectrum matches the $\omega \to 0$ limit of the tree-level QED calculation first done by Ore and Powell~\cite{orepowell}. The $\alpha\sqrt{x}$ correction also agrees with  the leading term in the
$\omega\to 0$ limit of the 1-loop QED result, as shown in Ref.~\cite{RuizFemenia:2008zz} by expanding the analytic expression of the exact 1-loop phase-space distribution given by Adkins~\cite{adkins}.

\section{Threshold expansion of the o-Ps$\to 3\gamma$ 1-loop diagrams}
\label{sec:threshold}

\label{fig:ladder}
\caption{Ladder and double-vertex graphs contributing to the o-Ps decay amplitude
to order $\alpha$.}
\end{center}
\end{figure}
The NLO term in the NRQED result above arises from
distances in the $e^+e^-$ system of order $r~\sim 1/\sqrt{m\omega}$, that are
much smaller than the size of the Ps atom $r\sim 1/m\alpha$. Translated into momentum
space, this implies that there is a kinematic region where the relative 3-momentum
of the non-relativistic $e^+e^-$ pair obeys the non-relativistic relation $p^0\sim\mathbf p^2/m\sim\omega$.
This scaling does not correspond to any of the known modes that have
been identified in the common applications of non-relativistic EFT's, and
should be compared to the scaling of
the familiar potential modes, $p^0\sim \mathbf p^2/m \sim m\alpha^2$, characteristic of the heavy particles that form the
bound state, and that of the soft modes, $p^0\sim |\mathbf p|\sim m\alpha\gg\mathbf p^2/m$.
The new loop-momentum region has to be
taken into account for a successful application of the
threshold expansion method~\cite{beneke} to QED and QCD
loop diagrams
involving a particle-antiparticle system decaying through
the emission of a soft photon. In the conventional loop expansion,
soft photon radiation from a heavy particle-antiparticle system introduces
a soft energy component $\omega\sim m\alpha$ in the zero component of the heavy particle momenta.
Non-relativistic poles in
massive propagators of the form $(p^0-\mathbf p^2/2m-\omega)^{-1}$ can be thus found in
these loops, giving rise to a contribution from the loop-momentum region
$p_0\sim \mathbf p^2/m \sim \omega$, which we refer to as {\it soft-radiation} region.

To illustrate the latter consider the threshold expansion to the 1-loop o-Ps$\to 3\gamma$ amplitude when
one of the photons has an energy $\omega_1\sim m\alpha$, where the conventional QED perturbative expansion is still valid.
For our purposes we can take the electron and positron inside the bound state to be at rest. Then $\omega_1$ represents
the smallest scale in the diagrams, and the leading term in the $\omega_1/m$
expansion is given by the ladder and double-vertex graphs shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:ladder}. The ladder amplitude involves the computation of the 5-point scalar integral:
\begin{eqnarray}
I_0  =  \int \!\!
{ [d^Dp] \over  p^2 \, [(p+P/2)^2-m^2] \, [(p-P/2)^2-m^2] \,  [(p+P/2-k_1)^2-m^2] \, [(p-P/2+k_3)^2-m^2] }\,,
\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
with $P=(2m,0)$ the Positronium momentum.
When the loop momentum is hard ($p\sim m$) the corresponding contribution scales as $I_0^{(\rm{h})}\sim m^{-6}$. However, for $\omega_1\to 0$ the loop-momentum regions where $p\ll m$ give larger contributions. Expanding the propagators for $p\ll m$ we have
\begin{eqnarray}
I_0^{(\rm{small})}  = -\frac{1}{2m^2} \int
{ [d^Dp] \over  (p_0^2-\mathbf{p}^2) \, (2m p_0-\mathbf{p}^2) \, (-2m p_0-\mathbf{p}^2) \,
(2m p_0-2m\omega_1-\mathbf{p}^2) \ }\,,
\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
which receives contributions from the poles at $p_0=(-\mathbf p^2/2m+i\epsilon)$ and $p_0=(-|\mathbf p|+i\epsilon)$ when we close the integration contour in the upper complex $p_0$-plane. From the residue of the former pole we obtain the contribution from the soft-radiation region
where $p_0\sim\mathbf{p}^2/m\sim m\omega_1$:
\begin{eqnarray}
I_0^{(\rm{s-r})}  = -\frac{i}{16 m^3} \int [d^n\mathbf p] \,
{1 \over  (\mathbf{p}^2)^2 \, (\mathbf{p}^2+m\omega_1)  \,  } = \frac{1}{64\pi m^3} (m\omega_1)^{-\frac{3}{2}}\,,
\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
which gives the leading term in the $\omega_1/m$ expansion of $I_0$. The pole at $p_0=(-|\mathbf p|+i\epsilon)$ gives an integral dominated by $\mathbf p\sim m\omega_1$ which scales as
$[d^Dp]/(m p_0)^5\sim m^{-5}\omega_1^{-1}$, {\it i.e.} larger
than the hard region one, although suppressed by $\sqrt{\omega_1/m}$ with respect the term from the soft-radiation region.
It is straightforward to verify that only the 1-loop graphs in Fig.~\ref{fig:ladder} receive contributions from the soft-radiation region~(see Ref.~\cite{RuizFemenia:2008zz} for a more detailed discussion). Once propagator numerators and vertex factors are included, the soft-radiation piece in the
threshold expansion of the 1-loop $e^+e^-\to 3\gamma$ amplitude reproduces the NLO term in the photon spectrum shown in Eq.~(\ref{eq:1}).

\section{The direct photon spectrum in the radiative $\Upsilon$ decay for $\omega \sim m_b \alpha_s$}
\label{sec:quarkonium}

\begin{figure}[!t]

\vspace{-0.4cm}
\label{fig:Upsilon}
\caption{Leading-order Feynman diagrams for radiative $\Upsilon$ decay.}
\end{figure}
The photon energy spectrum in heavy quarkonium radiative decays receives contributions from two
different mechanisms. The direct photon spectrum entails those contributions where the observed photon is radiated off a heavy quark, Fig.~\ref{fig:Upsilon}(a), while the fragmentation contributions are those in which one of the partons
fragments and transfers a fraction of its momentum to the photon,  Fig.~\ref{fig:Upsilon}(b).
The NRQCD factorization approach~\cite{bbl} allows to write down an operator product expansion
for the direct photon spectrum in, for example, $\Upsilon$ decays:
\begin{eqnarray}
{{\rm d}\Gamma_{\rm{dir}} \over {\rm d}x} = \sum_n C_n(x) \langle \Upsilon|{\cal O}_n | \Upsilon\rangle\,,
\end{eqnarray}
where the sum above extends over all $Q\bar{Q}[n]$ configurations that can be found inside
the quarkonium, and the $C_n(x)$
are short distance Wilson coefficients that can be determined from the annihilation
cross section of the on-shell $Q\bar{Q}[n]$ pair as a perturbative series in $\alpha_s(m_b)$.
The ${\cal O}_n$ in the long-distance matrix element are NRQCD operators which are
organized in powers of the relative velocity of the heavy quarks.
At leading order
only the color-singlet operator ${\cal O}_1({}^3S_1)$, that creates and annihilates
a quark-antiquark pair in a color-singlet ${}^3S_1$ configuration, contributes. The
nonperturbative NRQCD matrix element is related to the $\Upsilon$ wave function at the origin
\begin{eqnarray}
\langle \Upsilon|{\cal O}_1({}^3S_1) | \Upsilon\rangle
= \langle \Upsilon | \phi_{\mathbf p}^\dagger \sigma^i \chi_{-\mathbf p} \, \chi^{\dagger}_{-\mathbf p^\prime} \sigma^i \phi_{\mathbf p^\prime}
 | \Upsilon\rangle=2N_c\,|\psi(0)|^2
\,.
\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
The matching coefficient at leading order in $\alpha_s$ comes from the tree-level $Q\bar{Q}\to gg \gamma$
annihilation~\cite{upsilon} ($x=\omega/m_b$ in this case),
\begin{eqnarray}
\!\!\!\!\!\!C_1^{\,\mbox{\scriptsize LO}}(x) &=& {32\over 27}{ \alpha\alpha_s^2 Q^2_b \over m_b^2 }
\left[\frac{2 - x}{x}
+ \frac{\left( 1 - x\right) \,x}{{\left( 2 - x \right) }^2}
- \frac{2\,{\left( 1 - x \right) }^2\,\log (1 - x)}{{\left( 2 - x \right)}^3}
 + \frac{2\,\left( 1 - x\right) \,\log (1 - x)}{x^2} \right]\,,
\end{eqnarray}
which has identical $x$-dependence to that of the Ore-Powell spectrum for o-Ps~\cite{orepowell}.
Indeed the factorization approach applies trivially to QED bound states, where everything
is calculable perturbatively and the bound state wavefunction reduces to the Coulomb one.
\begin{figure}[!t]
\begin{center}
\includegraphics[width=.8\textwidth]{ladder_nonabelian.jpg}
\end{center}
\vspace{-0.4cm}
\label{fig:Upsilondiagrams}
\caption{A sample of the next-to-leading-order diagrams for the direct contributions to radiative $\Upsilon$ decay.}
\end{figure}

The threshold expansion technique used above for the o-Ps$\to 3 \gamma$ decay amplitude, can
be applied now to calculate the ${\cal O}(\alpha_s)$ correction to the
short-distance coefficient $C_1(x)$
in the region where $\omega \sim m_b \alpha_s$. A reduced set of the 1-loop diagrams that
have to be considered for the virtual corrections ($b\bar{b}\to \gamma gg$) is shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:Upsilondiagrams}.
The abelian topologies are obviously the same as those encountered in the $e^+e^-\to 3\gamma$ 1-loop graphs.
Therefore we know that the leading contribution in the $\omega/m_b$ expansion comes from the soft-radiation region
in the ladder and double-vertex topologies, Figs.~\ref{fig:Upsilondiagrams}(a) and \ref{fig:Upsilondiagrams}(b).
A quick examination of the pole structure from the propagators in non-abelian diagrams
reveals that they do not receive contributions from the soft-radiation region, and thus give subleading
terms in $\omega/m_b$. Likewise, real corrections corresponding to tree-level diagrams with one more parton in the final state,
$b\bar{b}\to \gamma ggg,\gamma gq\bar{q}$ are not enhanced for $\omega\to 0$. Therefore we can extract the leading ${\cal O}(\alpha_s)$ correction to  $C_1(x)$
when $\omega \sim m_b \alpha_s$  from the
QED result~(\ref{eq:1}) with trivial modifications:
\begin{eqnarray}
C_1^{\,\mbox{\scriptsize NLO}}(x) &=&
 \left (8\over 27\right)^2 { 3\alpha\alpha_s^2 Q_b^2 \over m_b^2 }\left[
-{14\over 3}\,\alpha_s\sqrt{x}  +{\cal O}(\alpha_s x) \right]
\,.
\label{eq:2}
\end{eqnarray}
From the result~(\ref{eq:2}) we obtain a simple expression for the NLO correction to the direct
spectrum in  the soft-energy
region for the radiative $\Upsilon$ decay:
\begin{eqnarray}
{1 \over \Gamma_{\rm{dir}}^{\,\mbox{\scriptsize LO}}} { {\rm d}\Gamma_{\rm{dir}}^{\,\mbox{\scriptsize NLO}} \over {\rm d}x}
\,=\,
 -{56 \over 27} {1\over (\pi^2-9)} \alpha_s \sqrt{x}
\,=\,
\left(4 \over 3\right)\,{1 \over \Gamma_{\rm oPs}^{\,\mbox{\scriptsize LO}}} { {\rm d}\Gamma_{\rm oPs}^{\,\mbox{\scriptsize NLO}} \over {\rm d}x} \,.
\label{eq:3}
\end{eqnarray}
The factor $4/3$ above is just given by the ratio between the colour factors in the ladder  and
tree-level diagrams.
The full perturbative ${\cal O}(\alpha_s)$ corrections to the $\Upsilon$ photon energy spectrum
were calculated numerically in Ref.~\cite{kraemer}. We have superimposed the NLO result for the spectrum
including the correction~(\ref{eq:3})
to the complete ${\cal O}(\alpha_s)$ result from Ref.~\cite{kraemer} in Fig.~\ref{fig:spectrum}, where $\alpha_s=0.2$.
As expected, our result can only improve the LO prediction for $x\mathrel{\raise.3ex\hbox{$<$\kern-.75em\lower1ex\hbox{$\sim$}}} 0.3$, as
it was obtained assuming the scaling $x\sim \alpha_s$.
The agreement with the exact result for small $x$ is remarkably good considering that our
formula neglects terms of order $\sqrt{x}$. The approximated NLO direct spectrum becomes negative
for $x\mathrel{\raise.3ex\hbox{$<$\kern-.75em\lower1ex\hbox{$\sim$}}} 0.05$. However, at those energies ($x\mathrel{\raise.3ex\hbox{$<$\kern-.75em\lower1ex\hbox{$\sim$}}} \alpha_s^2$) the emission of the photon can produce transitions to virtual bound states and does not longer belong to the short-distance part of the decay~\cite{Manohar:2003xv}.
Moreover, we should be aware that the fragmentation contributions to the photon spectrum
become important in the low-$x$ region~\cite{catani,maltoni} (namely for $x\mathrel{\raise.3ex\hbox{$<$\kern-.75em\lower1ex\hbox{$\sim$}}} 0.3$ in $\Upsilon$ decays),
and have to be properly taken into account for a computation of the full spectrum.
The standard NRQCD factorization also
breaks down at large values of the photon energy~\cite{rothstein}, where one needs to consider also collinear
degrees of freedom~\cite{upsiloncoll}.

La Facultad de Ciencias Económicas de la Universidad de Antioquia se encuentra ubicada en la ciudad de Medellín, Colombia. Es una unidad académica fundada en 1944, dedicada al estudio, la investigación y difusión de las disciplinas relacionadas con los campos de la administración, la contaduría y la economía.

Historia
El 20 de octubre de 1944, y por idea del Doctor Elías Abad Mesa, en aquel tiempo decano de la Facultad de Derecho, el Consejo Directivo de la Universidad de Antioquia, por medio del Acta 760, se creó la Escuela de Ciencias Económicas como una dependencia de la Facultad de Derecho. En dicha acta se señaló la decisión de comenzar los trabajos al inicio del siguiente año. La actual Facultad de Ciencias Económicas es una de las primeras cuatro de Colombia, en su naturaleza.

La Escuela inició efectivamente trabajos en 1945 con sus primeros estudiantes fundadores. Entre estos alumnos cabe nombrar a los cinco que terminaron sus estudios en la Escuela: Fabio Arango Cárdenas, Diego Calle Restrepo, Hernán García Piedrahíta, Bernardo Gómez Álvarez y Gustavo Montoya Toro.

En 1946 fue aprobada la independencia de la Escuela y en 1947 esta inició trabajos bajo su nueva situación y en una instalación distinta del ocupado por la Facultad de Derecho. Al doctor Jorge Eduardo Cárdenas Nanneti se le encomendó organizar la Escuela gracias a su experiencia anterior en Bogotá en la Escuela de Ciencias Económicas de la Universidad Nacional de Colombia.

En 1949 se graduaron los primeros catorce profesionales de la Escuela: los cinco fundadores ya antes mencionados y nueve alumnos que comenzaron sus estudios en 1946. En 1952 la Escuela obtuvo la condición de "Facultad Mayor" y el título de Facultad de Ciencias Económicas. Hasta 1962 la Universidad contaba con esta Facultad para generar profesionales en los campos de Economía, Administración y Contaduría, pero, esta preparación se realizaba por medio de un único programa de estudios, llamado Economía, cuya duración hasta 1960 era de cuatro años. Todos los alumnos recibían la misma educación y su posibilidad de especialización dentro de la Facultad obedecía, en parte, a su consagración especial en los temas de algún curso y del tema elegido para su tesis de grado.

El primer egresado en Ciencias Económicas por la Universidad de Antioquia obtuvo su título el 2 de diciembre de 1952. Entre esta fecha y el 13 de diciembre de 1962, fecha del último grado de ese año, se podría considerar la primera etapa de la Facultad, se graduaron sesenta y cuatro estudiantes, o sea, seis o siete por año en promedio. De los cuales cincuenta y nueve se graduaron con tesis individuales y cinco con dos tesis colectivas.

Aparte de los sesenta y cuatro graduados en el período 1952-1962 la Universidad otorgó en 1955, por idea e intermedio de la Facultad, el doctorado "Honoris Causa" en Ciencias Económicas al señor José Gutiérrez Gómez, abogado, empresario y hombre público.

Entre 1952-1962 es un período que se caracteriza por ser de grandes sucesos en la Facultad. La década comenzó con la evolución de la Escuela en Facultad. En 1954 surgió el primer número de la Revista Ciencias Económicas, publicación oficial de la Facultad que perduró hasta 1965. En dicha revista la Facultad publicaba las tesis de grado más sobresalientes de sus egresados, la información de las conferencias públicas que patrocinaba, y los artículos de sus docentes y de otros notorios académicos colombianos de aquel tiempo.

En 1955 se inauguró una edificación de dos plantas, adecuado en aquel momento, para la sede de la Facultad, levantada en el lote de la vieja casa que desde 1947 usaba la Escuela y luego Facultad. Esta construcción fue ocupada hasta 1969.

En 1962 finaliza la primera etapa de la Facultad. En consecuencia, en ese año el Consejo Directivo de la Universidad, por medio del Acuerdo N.º 5 del 9 de marzo, aprobó la conformación del Centro de Investigaciones Económicas —CIE—, de la Facultad. Además en ese año fue la creación, por medio del Acuerdo N.º 3 del 19 de septiembre, de la Facultad de Contaduría Pública, bajo la dependencia del decano de la Facultad de Ciencias Económicas.

En 1967 se llevó a cabo una transformación académico-administrativa y la recién creada Facultad de Contaduría se anexó como departamento a la Facultad de Ciencias Económicas.

Se aprobó otra reforma en 1975, mediante la cual se eliminaron los énfasis en Administración y en Planeación y Desarrollo dentro de la carrera de Economía y, a cambio, se creó el programa profesional de Administración de Empresas, el cual conduce al título de administrador y se concretó el programa de Economía, consagrado únicamente a la preparación de economistas profesionales en el sentido estricto de la palabra. En 1983 se crean el Centro de Investigaciones y Consultorías Administrativas —CICA— y el Consultorio Contable, adscritos a Administración y Contaduría correspondientemente.

Gobierno
La Facultad está administrada por un decano, quien representa al rector en la Facultad y es designado por el Consejo Superior Universitario para períodos de tres años. Existe un Consejo decisorio en lo académico y asesor en los demás asuntos. Está integrado así: el Decano, quien preside, El Vicedecano, quien actúa como Secretario con voz y sin voto, el Jefe del Centro de Extensión, los tres jefes de Departamento, un egresado graduado designado por las asociaciones de egresados y que no esté vinculado laboralmente con la Universidad para un período de dos años, un profesor elegido por los profesores de la Facultad en votación universal, directa y secreta para un período de un año y un estudiante elegido por los estudiantes de la misma en votación universal, directa y secreta para un período de un año. El elegido puede cumplir los requisitos del representante estudiantil ante el Consejo Superior.

At home with Lord and Lady Archer
Nothing was off limits when Jeffrey and Mary Archer showed Home around the vicarage where they have lived for 40 years
Danny Scott
Sunday November 04 2018, 12.01am, The Sunday Times
Jeffrey and Mary Archer bought the Old Vicarage, in Grantchester, after his writing career took off in 1979
FRANCESCO GUIDICINI
The story begins in 1979. Margaret Thatcher had just become Britain's first woman prime minister, an average house cost £14,000 and Blondie's Parallel Lines was the bestselling album of the year.
The property has a connection with the poet Rupert Brooke, who lodged there for a couple of years from 1910 and wrote The Old Vicarage
Jeffrey Archer was a former Conservative MP, living in a rented Cambridge flat that had been made available to his wife, Mary, the first female don at Trinity College. Ill-judged investments had left him half a million in debt and put the kibosh on his political career, so, in an act of sheer desperation, he decided to write a novel.
Not a Penny More, Not a Penny Less, published in 1976, had been a minor success, but all the pennies it made were used to fill up that £500,000 hole. As Archer admits, his

A THIRTEENTH GARLAND OF BRITISH LIGHT MUSIC COMPOSERS
Composers of light music are legion and it is not difficult to confuse them. I confess that in the past I have mixed up Johnny Pearson, composer of the well-loved TV title music for All Creatures Great and Small and Owen M.D., and Johnny Douglas, also a TV composer but known too for his work in stage musicals and for the large screen in films like Bikini Paradise, Circus of Fear, Kid Rodelo and most notably the heart-warming success The Railway Children.
Douglas - and Pearson - are still with us in 1997. Philip Green (1911-82), composer and conductor, goes further back, his floreat period being the decades immediately after the last war. He, too, worked in films, producing music for Tiara Tahiti, The March Hare, Shopping Centre, Horse Feathers and Song of Soho (a total of seventy film scores); his stage music included some for a children's musical, Noddy in Toyland, a revue, Fancy Free and the ice show Wildfire. Songs like Let's Go To The Pictures and Love Is Like An April Shower were popular in their day (which was around 1950), but his orchestral music was arguably the most highly regarded. This included several titles in Latin-American mood like the Cuban Suite, plus others published under the pseudonym Don Felipe, also the suite Cocktail Hat, and the single movements Shopping Centre, Horse Feathers, White Orchids and A Romance On A Theme Of Paganini.
Active around the same time was Francis Chagrin (1905-72), born in Romania (his real name was Alexander Paucker) and musically partly trained in France but who settled in London from 1936. During the Second World War he worked for the BBC's French service, which may account for the large number of settings of French traditional songs among his output. His tally of works includes two symphonies, a Piano Concerto and some chamber music and he was long associated with what became the S.P.N.M., but much of his output was "light": incidental music for radio productions and for over two hundred films (e.g. An Inspector Calls, Colditz Story, The Clue of the Twisted Candle), brass fanfares, recorder music, Four Lyric Interludes, the Five Aquarelles, an Elegy and Lamento Appassionato, all for strings, and Alpine Holiday, the Spanish dance Castellana, Helter-Skelter (an example of the British comedy overture), Promenade, Renaissance Suite, Concert Rumba and the Romanian Fantasy (which had a harmonica solo). Clockwork Revels, Divertimento for brass, Tussle and the Tango Mirage were all published for smaller ensembles or for piano solo.
Returning to TV composers, Richard G. Mitchell recently made something of a name for himself with his eclectic background music for the adaptation of Anne Bronte's novel The Tenant of Wildfell Hall (1997), while this Garlands' series would hardly be complete without mention of the Australian Barrington Pheloung, born in Sydney in 1954 and so bound up with music for the long running Inspector Morse detective series that one might be forgiven for wondering if he had written anything else. In truth he is a prolific composer. His work as musical adviser/conductor to the London Contemporary Dance Theatre doubtless inspired many of his 50-odd ballet scores, although A Midsummer Night's Dream was written for Scottish Ballet. His scores for feature films include Nostradamus, The Mangler and The St Exupéry Story, his other television ventures Days of Majesty, The Tall Ships, Portrait Of A Marriage, Treasure Island and The Politician's Wife. Among more serious works have been concertos for guitar, two guitars, (guitar and bass are instruments he plays himself) and cello.
A composer active in the generation after the Second World War is Donald Phillips, whose best known piece is Concerto in Jazz for piano and orchestra, a kind of up-tempo Warsaw Concerto or Cornish Rhapsody. Other descriptive orchestra titles by him include Cuban Holiday (1948), Soho Waltzes, Street of a Thousand Memories, Tap Dancer, Melody from the Sea (1958), October Rhapsody (1958), Park Lane, Toni's Tune (1960), Skyscraper Fantasy, Opening Night, Israeli Carnival, Swinging Sleigh Bells and The Olympics. Most of these titles were issued as piano solos and owed their full orchestral versions to professional orchestrators like Ronald Hanmer and Robert Docker. A solo for cornet (or trumpet), Trumpet Fiesta achieved considerable popularity and his output also included songs like Pantomime. Among latter-day "mood music" composers may be mentioned Bruce Campbell, for his popular Cloudland (he also published a Medley for Ocarinas!) and Heinz Herschmann, who arrived in Britain long ago as a refugee from the Nazis and who has pursued a career in music publishing; his Cradle Serenade and The Galleon are most appealing orchestral numbers.
Happily still with us is William Davies, born in 1921, organist (and pianist) on the BBC for many years and indeed elsewhere; in recent years he has been several times to Doncaster where his skill and amiable personality make him a popular visitor. He has the ability to improvise popular medleys at the drop of a hat - written-down compositions include Organists on the March, Oranges and Lemons, Duo for Caroline and the title music for BBC radio's Just William (from memory this goes back to the 1940s): nothing to do with Richmal Crompton - the William is/was Davies himself.
Alan Bullard, born in London in 1947, and for many years a Colchester resident, is not easy to type-cast, but much of his educational music is light-hearted in character. One may cite as examples, the Recipes for solo recorder, the Galloway Sketches for recorder and piano or guitar which are a tribute to Walter Carroll, Colnford Suite for trombone and piano, Three Picasso Portraits for saxophone quartet, the Colchester Suite for orchestra, dating from 1982, Lyric Overture (1976), Cyprian Dances and the more recent (1993) Heritage for symphonic wind orchestra premiered in Leeds. A fuller study of Bullard has now appeared in BMS News.
And so to my by now customary indulgence of "puffing" the light music composers of my home town, Doncaster. The Schools Music Service has produced several in recent years: Ray Woodfield and Peter Sumner, both now retired, are two who have achieved mentions in a past Garland. Of present employees one may mention Kevin Edwards, percussion tutor, and one of the finest percussionists in the North of England; he has produced many arrangements for percussion and his most recent composition is the up-tempo Hop-Scotch for his student concert band and, premiered in April 1997. The service's guitar tutors need, more than most, to have their pens at the ready as music for guitar ensemble is indifferently catered for by the standard music publishers. Particularly popular in recent student concert has been Steve Merrett's Appleby Rag, a catchy essay in the style of Scott Joplin (and called after the William Appleby Music Centre which is the service's headquarters). Most prolific, though, is Martin Nockalls (born 1954), trained at the Huddersfield School of Music (as it was then called) who estimates he has produced over two hundred original written works for guitar solo or guitar ensemble, all more or less to be reckoned as light music, and roughly the same number of arrangements. Of all his works Martin rates most highly his Romance Collection, in effect a three movement suite with the individual movements called Adagio, Samba and Appassionata.

At some point in your vehicle's lifespan, for one reason or another, the brake hose will need to be replaced. Perhaps they have become gradually less effective over time or maybe they have been damaged by road debris? Either way, you have an important decision to make – do you replace them with a rubber brake hose or should you upgrade to a stainless steel braided brake line instead.
In the following blog, we take a look at some of the main reasons why people choose to upgrade and outline the scenarios in which a stainless steel brake line may be better suited to your driving needs.
Whilst rubber brake hoses have a range of advantages, including their low cost, low maintenance, and durability, they are only suitable for non-performance orientated vehicles. Yes, they are the perfect solution for a car or motorcycle that is used to take you from A to B. However, for any kind of performance or off-road driving, stainless steel brake lines are a much better option.
This is because, under pressure, stainless steel braided brake lines do not expand and bulge as much as rubber. They successfully retain their integrity, allowing you to perform more sensitive brake adjustments and significantly improving the overall performance of your vehicle's brake system.
Thanks to the nature of their construction, braided stainless steel brake lines demonstrate fantastic durability. The inner tube is surrounded by a stainless steel mesh and, essentially, this mesh creates a tough barrier against corrosive oils, water, road debris, UV rays and more. It is much more difficult for them to get a puncture and they are resistant to physical damage from both inside and out.
Therefore, if you plan to take your vehicle off-road, it may be worth investing in stainless steel brake lines. Not only are they built to withstand such extreme conditions, but they will also last for a longer period of time – saving you the effort and cost of having to have them frequently replaced.
Aside from their technical advantages, some people decide to upgrade to steel braided brake lines simply due to their appearance. Perhaps you are passionate about motor vehicles and take pride in your vehicle's appearance? Or perhaps you recently upgraded your callipers and black rubber brake hose look out of place? In such situations, it makes sense to invest in a steel brake line instead.
Stainless steel braided brake hoses come in a variety of colours, including everything from silver and grey to bright red and blue. You can choose a shade that matches or complements your vehicle, therefore improving the aesthetic of both the wheels and the vehicle as a whole.
Braided stainless steel brake lines outperform rubber hoses in almost every aspect and here we have highlighted some of the main reasons why people choose to upgrade.
If you are in need of a new brake hose for your vehicle and unsure of which type to buy, please feel free to get in touch with our team of experts. BrakeQuip is one of the UK's leading suppliers of steel braided brake lines and we demonstrate a wealth of knowledge and experience in this area.

Published: Feb 11 at 9:28 a.m.
The Island New Democrats are in the political wilderness for a reason, and the party's platform released on Thursday is a prime example why.
Their plan, if implemented, would send the Prince Edward Island economy into a spiral.
The deficit would balloon out of control.
Taxes would increase across the board.
Investment in our province would all but disappear.
And the mass exodus of young people, which the province is finally starting to curtail, would reach unprecedented levels.
But that's the problem with the NDP. The party knows all too well that it can promise whatever it wants. They are dead last in the polls. The last poll by Corporate Research Associates released in November put the Island's NDP at six per cent. That's 31 points behind the leading Green party.
To be taken seriously as a political party, Prince Edward Island voters want a concrete plan, a plan that is costed, a plan that is based in reality.
The NDP is promising $100 million for farmers, fibre internet for rural Islanders and a family doctor for every Islander within 18 months.
Have we not heard that promise before?
Successive governments in provinces across this country have made this promise. All have failed. So, why does the NDP feel it can deliver when governments of all political stripes have made similar promises?
The NDP is promising to build a medical school at UPEI.
Price tag? Millions of dollars.
But wait, the promises do not stop there.
The party will build a new addictions treatment facility in western Prince Edward Island, create 2,000 new affordable housing units, launch a new provincial pension plan that covers all Islanders, and every vehicle in the provincial government's fleet will be electric.
Cost? Well, the party doesn't know, but we're confident it is now in the hundreds of millions of dollars.
There will be 16 doctors each for West Prince and Kings County, a health-care pilot in Charlottetown and North Rustico, income support program, local food program in Island schools and a "second-city" strategy for Summerside, which includes robbing jobs out of Charlottetown and relocating them to Summerside.
Not only is that an ill-conceived plan, we also question how the people of Summerside feel about being called a "second-city." What makes the Prince County capital any less of a city than the capital?
There is no question Prince Edward Island has been able to turn around its economy and is now recording surplus budgets.
But we cannot lose sight of the fact the province, according to the 2018 auditor general's report, is still grappling with a $2.17 billion debt.
Do we want farmers to be successful? No question.
Do we believe that every Islander deserves a doctor? Without a doubt.
Is there a need for more affordable housing units in P.E.I.? Yes.
But we need a realistic plan to achieve these goals.
The NDP plan, if implemented, would bankrupt this province.
We are challenging the NDP to go back to the drawing board and come up with a realistic plan, one which Islanders can get behind.
