What makes a home zero carbon, and what is the government doing about existing housing stock?
What is a zero-carbon home?
A home that produces zero or even negative CO2 emissions by maximising the use of energy efficiency and renewable energy. All new houses must be zero-carbon from 2016 onwards. While such houses conjure up futuristic images, the reality is they can just as easily look the same as traditional houses.
How does a zero-carbon home live up to its name?
Three words are key in the zero-carbon world: insulation, insulation and insulation. And maybe "airtightness" too.
Most of Britain's housing stock is what's called "leaky" in the sense that buildings lose heat through badly insulated walls and roofs as well as through draughty windows. In zero-carbon homes all that changes – walls are heavily insulated, floors and roofs keep heat in, and triple-glazed draught-proofed windows stop warmth flooding out.
Isn't the air stale in such an air-tight building?
No. Many have heat exchangers in the loft through which the warm, stale air from in the house is expelled while fresh air from the outside is drawn in, picking up the heat on the way to avoid wasting it. This means the building can pretty much heat itself from the body warmth of its inhabitants, cutting heating bills virtually to zero. This is all in winter, of course. If the house feels too warm in the summer, you just open the window.
What role do renewables play in a zero-carbon home?
Renewable energy technologies such as solar panels and wind turbines can mean a house generates more energy than it uses – potentially making it a "carbon negative" house. Homeowners will be paid for any green electricity they feed into the grid by the government's Clean Energy Cashback scheme, due to launch in April 2010.
What are the legal requirements for a home to qualify for the zero-carbon label?
The government hasn't decided. Gordon Brown and then-communities secretary Ruth Kelly announced in 2006 that all new homes would be "zero-carbon" by 2016, but no standard was set. The government consulted on the standard between December 2008 and March this year, and a final definition of what constitutes a zero-carbon home was expected this July – but that's now been delayed until later this year.
The finished standard will specify what percentages of a home's CO2 savings should come from energy efficiency, renewable energy generation such as solar panels on the building, and what share can come from other savings such as wind farms and community combined heat and power plants.
When will zero-carbon homes start appearing?
The first officially recognised zero-carbon home, a prototype by Kingspan Off-Site, was built in 2007. Since then, several demonstration new-builds have been considered "zero-carbon", but the first serious wave of zero-carbon homes is unlikely to appear until 2016 when housebuilders are forced by the government to meet the new standard. All homes in the new eco-towns will meet the zero-carbon standards.
How do UK plans compare internationally?
Sweden and Germany already have standards that match the UK vision of a zero-carbon house. Over 2,000 "passive house" homes – buildings that require little or no heating because they're so well-insulated – have been built in Germany, and Sweden has made the passive house standard mandatory.
What is the government doing about existing housing stock?
Zero-carbon houses are the houses of the future, but most of us will remain living in existing buildings – hence the government's drive to insulate cavity walls and lofts, install more efficient boilers and double-glazed windows. In 2010, the government will also launch a new "clean energy cashback" scheme, which will encourage consumers to fit solar panels, wind turbines or heat pumps. None of this will make most existing houses zero-carbon, but it could reduce their carbon emissions hugely.


I went on a Birdfinders trip to Sri Lanka in the latter half of February. Sri Lanka has an impressive list of endemics, 34 species under the IOC listing. We managed to see all 34 endemics amongst a personal trip total of 250 species. In all I got about 85 lifers which was quite impressive considering I've previously visited Goa, India which has a similar avifauna. A very enjoyable trip. Sri Lanka didn't seem as maniac, chaotic or crowded compared to India. It was nice to see that the country on the whole was mostly litter free however the state of a lot of the streams and rivers left a bit to be desired. Our group consisted 14 participants, nearly all from England but one from France and another from Romania. I think it goes without saying that there were probably too many on the trip even though four of the participants weren't particularly "birdy" and generally chilled out back at the hotel or visited local towns and attractions while the rest were out birding. These trips always require a fair deal of compromise from everyone for a trip to run properly. While even most members were complete strangers to each other, everyone got on went with each other by and large however there was one incidence when two members came extremely close to exchanging blows with one another!
Our guide Chaminda Dilruk was excellent. A very sharp, knowledgeable and extremely patient guide. One particular trip member was particularly slow at getting onto birds and I was amazed to see that Chammy managed to get him onto every single endemic by the end of the trip, some achievement! Due to the large group size communication could be a little difficult at times. Thankfully I only missed six species that were seen by others during the trip so I think I fared very well compared to other trips that I've done.
My flight from London Gatwick was early on Monday morning so I decided to head over to London a day early on Sunday. I hired out a car for Sunday and headed up to Great Barford, Bedfordshire for an overwintering Little Bunting which was still a lifer for me. The M25 was largely free from traffic and I made it up in decent time. I've virtually done no birding on the "mainland" UK. The twitching scene in the UK is rather different compared to Ireland. In Ireland practically everyone knows everyone. I found most of the birders at the Little Bunting site to be rather standoffish and there was very little communication between anyone on site. Thankfully the bird had be seen earlier in the day and I managed to pick out the bird relatively quickly amongst a mixed finch/bunting flock. Most of the other birders on site really struggled to get onto the bird despite me giving repeated directions and most never did see the bird.
I got very little sleep on the Colombo flight (via Dubai) and we arrived at 0405hrs. After a three hour drive to our hotel in Kithulgala it was straight into the birding and the heat! Certainly our toughest day of the trip but the birding was excellent. By the end of the day we already had seen twelve of the endemics - Sri Lanka Green Pigeon, Sri Lanka Hanging-Parrot, Layard's Parakeet, Serendib Scops Owl, Sri Lanka Grey Hornbill, Yellow-fronted Barbet, Crimson-backed Flameback, Sri Lanka Swallow, Black-capped Bulbul, Spot-winged Thrush, Orange-billed Babbler and Sri Lanka Myna. The Owl was probably the highlight of the trip. No birds had been seen here for the last fortnight so we were very fortunate that one had been found roosting very recently.
Sri Lanka Swallow - endemic.
Serendib Scops Owl - endemic.

Q: Understanding a Theorem regarding Order of elements in a cyclic group This is part of practice midterm that I have been given (our prof doesn't post any solutions to it) I'd like to know whats right before I write the midterm on Monday this was actually a 4 part question, I'm posting just 1 piece as a question in its own cause it was much too long.
Let $G$ be an abelian group.
Suppose that $a$ is in $G$ and has order $m$ (such that $m$ is finite) and that the positive integer $k$ divides $m$.
(ii) Let $a$ be in $G$ and $l$ be a positive integer. State the theorem which says $\langle a^l\rangle=\langle a^k\rangle$ for some $k$ which divides $m$.
I have a theorem in my textbook that says as follows.
Let G be a finite cyclic group of order n with $a \in G$ as a generator for any integer m, the subgroup generated by $a^{m}$ is the same as the subgroup generated by $ a^{d}$ where $d=(m,n)$.
if this is the correct theorem can someone please show me why? thanks

A: For the theorem in your textbook, note that $(a^d)^{m/d}=a^m$ and $(a^m)^{b}=a^d$ where $b$ is the integer that $bm+cn=d$, which you can find using Euclidean Algorithm.
This means they can generate each other. Therefore, the groups they generate are the same.
You can use this to prove the question.
The question says $\forall l>0, \exists k|m,\langle a^l\rangle=\langle a^k\rangle$. Using the theorem, we know that $\langle a^l\rangle=\langle a^d\rangle$ where $d=gcd(l, n)$. Since $a$ is of order $m$, $d$ must divides $m$. Therefore, pick $d$ as your $k$.

A: I'll prove a more general of fact about cyclic groups, which would be good to know. Every subgroup of a cyclic group $\langle a\rangle$ of order $m$ is cyclic of order $l$ dividing $m$. For each $l$ dividing $m$, there is exactly one subgroup of order $l$: it is $\langle a^{m/l}\rangle$. The question ii) follows immediately from that.
Since $\langle a\rangle$ is isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}_m$ via $n\longmapsto a^n$, it suffices to work in $\mathbb{Z}_m$.
Let $H$ be a subgroup of $\mathbb{Z}_m$. We can assume $H\neq\{0\}$, and we consider its smallest positive element $k$ in $\{0,\ldots,n-1\}$.
By Euclidean division, every $h\in H$ can be written $h=qk+r$ with $0\leq r<k$. Now note that $qk$ belongs to $H$, so $r=h-qh$ lies in $H$. By minimality of $k$, we must have $r=0$. So $h=qk$. This proves that $H\subseteq \langle k\rangle $. The converse is obvious.
So $H$ is cyclic, generated by $k$, its smallest positive element. If $l$ denotes the order of $H$, i.e. the order of $k$, we must have
$$H=\{0,k,2k,\ldots,(l-1)k\}\qquad\mbox{and}\qquad kl=m.$$
It is now clear that for each $l$ dividing $m$, there is exactly one subgroup of order $l$. And it is cyclic. This finishes to prove the claims above.
Finally, let us prove the claim you stated in this context: $H=\langle j\rangle$ and consider $k=\gcd(j,m)$. Since $k$ divides $j$, we clearly have $H=\langle j\rangle\subseteq \langle k\rangle$. Now assume $kn$ belongs to the latter. By Bezout, there exist $u,v$ such that $k=uj+vm$. So $kn=ujn+vmn\equiv ujn [m]$. Hence $kn$ belongs to $H=\langle j\rangle$. So we do have $H=\langle j\rangle=\langle k\rangle=\langle \gcd(j,m) \rangle$.
Applying the above to some $H=\langle a^j\rangle$ yields two ways of getting $k$ dividing $m$ such that $H=\langle a^k\rangle$. The second is more explicit since we take $k=\gcd(j,m)$.

A: Yes you can apply the theorem you cite immediately with $(\langle a\rangle,m,l)$ repectively in the roles of $(G,n,m)$ (here $\langle a\rangle$ is the cyclic subgroup generated by $a$); the desired value for $k$ is the value $d$ of the theorem, which is, in view of the name changes, $k=\gcd(m,l)$.

Q: Angular filter catching values that contain the filter.. how to make it strict if strict doesn't work (as i expect)? I'm pretty new to angular so please be gentle.
the problem:
i have a custom filter for a dropdown using ng-repeat on the options
<select ng-model="SelectPart">
    <option ng-repeat="part in parts| filter:customFunction" value="{{ part.id }}">{{ part.name }}</option>
</select>

here is the custom function (updated and tested):
$scope.customFunction = function(item){
    return item.ouder_lichaamsdeel_id === '2' || item.id === '2';
};

now here is my question:
It turns out the function is correct. the problem is with the next dropdown menu
<select ng-show="SelectPart">
    <option ng-repeat="subPart in subParts| filter:{subPart.parent_id: SelectPart} : strict" value="{{ subPart.id }}">{{ subPart.name}}</option>
</select>

there is something wrong with the filter on the second select. likely that the filter checks if {12: 2} and it recognizes the 2 in the 12..
even with the strict filter applied. it still shows the subParts that have Parent_id = 12

A: You should use the true filter : it will check if values are equals
You can see it here : https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/filter/filter
Here's an example:

                    {{message.sender}}
                    {{message.time}}
                    {{message.body}}

I Hope it may help you

Squisito Too Continues Expansion with First-Ever Tennessee Location Debuting in Sevierville, TN
Sevierville, TN (RestaurantNews.com) Squisito Too, one of the country's fastest-growing fast casual pizza and pasta franchises, is expanding to Tennessee with the official opening of its first location in Sevierville. Slated to officially open to the public on Monday, December 7th, Squisito Too is located in the bustling Tanger Outlets shopping center. It marks the first of three locations from new franchisees Joey and Missy Messick that are slated to open in the coming year, including a second outpost in Knoxville, across from the University of Tennessee campus.
Joey Messick is a second-generation Krispy Kreme franchisee with two stores currently open in the Sevierville-Knoxville area. Searching for the perfect fast-casual concept to bring to the area, Joey and Missy felt aligned with Squisito Too and its build-your-own menu model. With an array of authentic recipes, the husband-and-wife team knew it would be the perfect fit in the Knoxville/Pigeon Forge area, confident that guests will appreciate the high-quality menu and create-your-own vibe.
"It's such a privilege to be able to bring Squisito Too here and introduce this delicious yet affordable concept to our hometown," said Missy and Joey Messick.

Squisito currently boasts 10 locations throughout the Northeast with seven additional openings, including those in Tennessee, planned for the immediate future. The Sevierville store will become the second Squisito Too location following Jessup, Maryland which opened its doors earlier this year in 2020.
"Joey and Missy have great knowledge in the franchising industry, and we know that Squisito Too will be a success in this high-traffic area, appealing to both locals and tourists alike," said Michele DiMeo, President of Squisito Franchise Enterprises, Inc. "We look forward to our ongoing partnership and are so fortunate for those in Eastern Tennessee to now have access to our award-winning Italian recipes."
Each Squisito Too location embodies the same set of core values – delicious, fresh, traditional Italian food, incredible customer service and a dedication to give back to the communities in which they do business.

Boston Marathon story: A motorman's job, a wife's anguish
Cynthia Prairie | Apr 17, 2013 | Comments 1
By Cynthia Prairie
Sarah Ringquist-Paulicelli of Hanover, Mass., her four children and a nephew came to Chester last weekend for a nine-day visit with her mother, Sharon Baker, owner of the Country on the Common clothing store. Sarah's husband, John, planned to join them for a two-night visit Monday evening, after work.
But at 3:05 that afternoon — just as the family was heading to the playground at Chester-Andover Elementary School — Ringquist-Paulicelli's cell phone rang.
John, a motorman for the Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority in Boston, was on the other end.
Minutes earlier, around 2:50 p.m., he said, two bombs had exploded near the finish line of the 117th Boston Marathon, right above his head. News reports now confirm that three people — two young women and an 8-year-old boy — were killed and 176 were injured.
John Paulicelli, the son-in-law of Chester's Sharon Baker, was driving a train when the marathon explosions occurred overhead. Photo provided.
John Paulicelli had been operating his Greenline train beneath Boyleston Street, at the marathon's finish line, when – even above the noise of his train – he heard a muffled bang. "My train shutters, like a tremor, almost like a little rumble. It was out of the ordinary," Paulicelli says, adding that he knows that track well since he drives it many times a day.
His wife worried, her mind flashing back to 2001. "Just because of 9-11, I've always been afraid of something like that … with him working in Boston. So when he called me, my heart was in my throat. … I was pretty scared."
After John's initial call, authorities cut off all cell phone service just in case cell phones would be used to detonate more bombs. "I didn't hear from him for about four hours," says Ringquist-Paulicelli, "and I couldn't get through because all the cell service was shut down. Of course, I'm up here, three and a half hours away and watching it on TV."
Although he felt the first explosion, Paulicelli's train had apparently already passed it. By the time the second bomb exploded — about 10 seconds later — he had passed that as well. That's when the dispatcher began calling the trains, first to say there was a "police action."
But moments later, he says, dispatchers announced that a massive evacuation was taking place and the motormen would be under police advisement. "When you hear that, it is scary," Paulicelli says.
"At the next stop," Paulicelli recalls, "people started piling into the train. It was chock full. Everyone who got on the train seemed very upset, crying, dazed." Once at street level, passengers were told to go to one of the many marathon Red Cross tents if they needed help.
The whole situation was "shocking, crazy," Paulicelli says.
His wife, Sarah, says, "I'm so relieved now. I feel so sad for everyone. It is just awful, just awful."

Sharon Baker says:
Thank you for such a personal perspective over such a sad and shocking event. It was almost surreal when the call came from John. Thank goodness there were so many in the line of duty who stepped up to the plate, did their jobs and made it easier for the public to get out of harm's way. Hats off to you, John!


Being the news presenter for Today, Sylvia Jeffreys has her beauty regimen down to a fine art.
But the Queensland native knows this year's TV WEEK Logies on the Gold Coast is the chance to leave her everyday look at the news desk.
"It's the time to go large," the 32-year-old (right) tells TV WEEK.
Sleep is crucial in Sylvia's beauty routine. But her busy schedule can prevent her from getting the amount she needs.
"In lieu of sleep, a good face mask and a heavy-duty eye cream helps to get rid of puffiness and bags under the eyes," she explains.
When Sylvia sits in the hair and make-up chair in the mornings, she focuses on reading and preparing for the show. Though she's spent many hours in hair and make-up over the years, there's one easy tip that has stood out.
"I've picked up on blow-drying my fringe forward. It helps my part to find its natural position and fall into place," she reveals.
Viewers of Today would notice Sylvia's make-up is nearly identical each day: soft eye shadow, understated lip colour and her long bob. This is partly for consistency, and partly because there's no time to experiment before filming.
Sylvia loves that the Logies is her chance to be glitzy.
"There's an extra inch of lash, and a smokier eye," she says. "The hair gets bigger and a little looser."
Sylvia's Logies hair and make-up process begins at midday. Applying a good-quality primer as a base and long-wear make-up is the key to minimising touch-ups during the event.In her clutch, there's hardly a beauty product to be seen.
"You'll probably find only my hotel pass, and my phone to take selfies with the celebrities who I've watched on television since I was a child," she enthuses.
Unlike most Logies guests, Sylvia has to be up at dawn afterwards to film Today. She has a quick shower, gets dressed and then gets straight back into the hair and make-up chair.
"At my bedside, there's just a big glass of water, a Berocca, in case of emergencies, and my alarm set for 3.20am," she explains.

Brian Dudley Barrett & André Groeneveld, Volendam Kunstenaarsdorp het Erfgoed van Hotel Spaander (Volendam Artists Village, The Heritage of Hotel Spaander) Zuiderzeemuseum, Enkhuizen, 2009, p. 149, illustrated
"Wilm Wouters Schildert Volendam" in de-Maarschalk, March 10, 2015, illustrated
Outsiders idealized the people of Volendam who were viewed as pious, honest, healthy and happy. Their needs were felt to be meager and were seen as removed from such social ills as alcoholism. Their colorful costumes and tiny wooden houses crammed with objects appealed to the imagination of artists and collectors alike.[1] Wilm Wouters who lived among them, captured their souls as opposed to only their reflections in his work. This painting depicts Geertje Karregat (1837-1924) known as de Zaligmaker (the Savior), holding a rosary, in a pew of the seventeenth century Protestant Church of Volendam.[2] Behind her, an older man and two children are seated. Geertje was married to the fisherman Jan Pooijer Pantjes (1828-1898) with whom she had five children. They lived in the Doolhof, on a narrow street in the oldest part in the center of Volendam, in a house so tiny that the Land Registry regarded it as too small to list. In their old age, they took any job they could find to keep financially afloat. After Geertje was widowed at the age of 61, she knitted sweaters, socks, and muffs on order. Why she came to be known as de Zaligmaker stems from the job she took to pray and prepare the villagers for their funerals. Clothed in the traditional garb of the village, Geertje was photographed by tourists, and due to her striking appearance, became a popular model for artists (i.e. Piet van der Hem, Willy Sluiter, Albert Polydor Ternote, and Maximilian Vanka). Through these means she received national recognition and came to be perceived as emblematic of Volendam.[3]
John Sillevis stated regarding Wouters' De Zaligmaker in Church, "had he been an American this work would hang in a place of honor in the National Gallery in Washington".[4] There are three known versions of the composition, two in the collection of the Hotel Spaander, and this one, which until last year was privately held. They are identical in subject and size. The Spaander paintings employ a darker palette of pronounced blues and blacks, particularly in the costuming of Geertje; whereas in our work, browns and greys predominate, lending a more ethereal quality to the scene. One of the Spaander versions was exhibited at Arti et Amicitiae in 1923 and executed in 1922. It is unknown which version was first painted.
Wouters was obviously drawn to Geertje due to the expressiveness of her entire being. As succinctly demonstrated by this work, what greater theme could an artist undertake than the symbolic struggle of survival in the face of adversity, while placing full faith in the presence of a higher power. Coupled with the unflinching modernity of its image, it is hardly surprising that the Volendams Museum chose this painting as the banner for their Wouters retrospective, as it is a masterpiece.
Before Wouters became an artist, he was a sailor and then a diamond cutter. He began his artistic training in 1908 with Albert Hahn. From 1909 to 1914, he was enrolled at the Rijksakademie in Amsterdam, and was a student of Carl Lodewijk Dak, Antonius Johannes Derkinderen, and Nicolaas van der Waay; but it would be his 1918 move from Amsterdam to Volendam, that would prove transformative.[5] In all likelihood, Wouters, like so many of his colleagues, arrived in Volendam in search of the "unspoiled" villages of the Netherlands. From the 1880s onwards, artists from all over the world had become enamored of all things Dutch, and arrived in droves to search for what they considered the "true" Holland. Volendam, eleven miles north of Amsterdam, in the 1880s was a remote fishing village accessible only by canalboat or carriage. Such isolation had left Volendam largely untouched by the modernization and industrialization prevalent in such Dutch cities as Rotterdam and Amsterdam or other foreign capitals, and it was exactly this feature that proved so attractive. Noting a lack of hotel accommodations, a local entrepreneur by the name of Leendart Spaander spotted an opportunity and opened his house to foreign artists. By 1881 he had purchased a bar in Volendam and converted it into the Hotel Spaander (which is still in existence today).[6] In 1895, cleverly and with much forethought, Spaander had two of his daughters don the traditional dress of Volendam, and accompany him to the opening of an exhibition for the Dutch artist Nico Jungman in London, which caused a sensation. Spaander followed this up by having postcards printed featuring Volendam and his hotel, and sent them to all foreign art academies. He also ran ads for the hotel with the Holland-America shipping line. At the hotel, he installed rooms featuring typical Volendam interiors, and then rented them to artists. For an extra fee he supplied models. Spaander had seven daughters who often posed for artists, and unsurprisingly three eventually married painters, including his youngest Conny who married Wouters in 1919. Spaander further extended his operation by buying the land behind his hotel and building studios for artists who wanted to prolong their stay in Volendam. As a result of such accommodations, an international artist colony formed. Spaander was able to amass a large art collection as unpaid accounts were occasionally settled in exchange for paintings. Volendam, viewed as quaint, colorful and exotic, teemed with artists, and along with Spaander's ever-growing collection, functioned as a draw for the hotel and attracted tourists from everywhere. Such millionaires as Andrew Carnegie, William Randolph Hearst, Anna Pavlova, Harold Lloyd, Clark Gable, and Walt Disney, as well as members of the Dutch and German royal families, visited.[7]
Conny and Wouters, along with her sisters Pauline and Trinette, and their husbands, the German painter Georg Hering and French artist Augustine Haricotte respectively, held a central place within the artists' colony of Volendam. They acted as role models for the community, and were particularly helpful in assisting new arrivals, and organizing ateliers. Conny and Wouters' first son, also named Wilm, was born in 1919. Leendart Spaander lived to be 99 years old (1855-1955), and through the years his collection grew substantially, with Wouters contributing more than sixty works. Because of the nature of its formation, the Spaander Collection is viewed as a guideline to the artistic heritage of Volendam, the importance of which was documented in Volendam Artists Village, The Heritage of Hotel Spaander, in which this painting was illustrated, published by the Zuiderzeemuseum in 2009.[8]
Wouters lived in Volendam until 1925, and then moved to Amsterdam. Besides being an excellent draftsman and painter, he worked in pastels and watercolor, and executed etchings, lithographs and woodcuts. His subject matter included landscapes, cityscapes, florals, and genre, but foremost portraiture. He was a member of Arti et Amicitae, the St. Luke Society, and Mija Rembrandt. Besides works in the Spaander Collection and the Zuiderzeemuseum, there is a charcoal drawing, De Kaartlegger (Reading the Cards) in the Volendams Museum, and a still-life painting in the Gemeentemuseum, The Hague.[9]

Ranscombe Cottages: 1822-1911
A detail from the 1822 William Figg map of Ranscombe Farm. North is to the bottom of the map with the Firle-Lewes road cutting in from the top-left. Occupied buildings are red and there is just one block of cottages on the south side of the road to Glynde
A more detailed view from the Ordnance Survey, 1874, this time with north at the top of the map. A pair of cottages can be seen just above the number 295, with the cart lodge of the farm immediately to the west.
The Ordnance Survey, 1899, clearly shows a second pair of cottages have been built to the east of the original pair. They also appear to be slightly larger.
1822 Firle Estate 1911
1841 Robert Russel & George Chapman 1851
1871 Luke Blackman & Allen Mitchell 1871
1881 Mitchell, Allen, Gillman & Duplock 1881

1901 Goldsmith, Foord & Allen 1901
1911 Newell, Parker, Akehurst, Allen 1911
Although Ranscombe Farm has been part of the parish of Glynde since 1984, hence its inclusion on this website, it had originally been in the ancient parish of South Malling.
There are now four, owner-occupied, cottages at Ranscombe Farm, on the opposite side of Ranscombe Lane from the farm, and a hundred yards further east. The farm had been owned by the Firle Estate since 1543 but there were no labourers' cottages on the site when Thomas Budgen drew a map of the farm for the estate, c1808. This may have been because the farmer was continuing the tradition of having his unmarried labourers living in the farmhouse, although it does not explain where any married labourers may have lived unless it was at the nearby settlements of Southerham, Beddingham, Glynde, or even Lewes. William Figg, Lewes cartographer, drew another map of the farm in 1822 and this shows there was one pair of cottages on the present site at that date (see detail).
The Ordanance Survey maps of 1874 and 1899 (see images) show that the second pair of cottages were built sometime between those two dates. The census returns of 1841, 1851, 1861 and 1871 indicate there were only one pair of cottages at Ranscombe but the 1881, 1891 and 1901 returns all show four cottages on the farm.
In 1841 the families of George Chapman, wheelwright, and Robert Russell, labourer, might have been living there. Their houses were listed on the census between the entries for Ranscombe Farmhouse and Southerham Farmhouse.
Although the 1841 and 1851 census did not always list houses in strict geographical order, these same families appear on the 1851 census listed immediately after Ranscombe Farm.
The 1861 census shows the tenant of the farm was Robert Matthews, who had been born in Lusby in Lincolnshire. He appears to have brought some of his labourers with him as both the cottages on the 1861 census were occupied by the families of labourers who had also originated in Lincolnshire. Charles Roberts, aged 27, was a carter born in Hagworthingham and, next door, lived William Epton, a 35 year-old labourer born in East Keal.
By 1871 Charles Roberts and his family had returned to Hagworthinghm while William Epton, now a general labourer, was living at 3 Garden Cottages in the Cliffe in Lewes.
On the 1871 census the cottages at Ranscombe were named for the first time. One was now occupied by Luke Blackmore, a 30 year-old agricultural labourer born in Falmer, living there with his wife Eliza, aged 30, born in South Malling, and their children Eliza, 7; Emily, 6; Stephen, 3; and Edith, 1. William Freeman, a 36 year-old railway platelayer from Bexhill was lodging with them.
The other cottage was occupied by Allen Mitchell, 57, an agricultural labourer born in Telscombe, and his wife Mary, 55, born in Wiston. They had five children living with them: Allen, 36, a widower and agricultural labourer; Mary, 24; Henry, 19, James, 17, and Walter, 14, all agricultural labourers. Allen and Mary's granddaughter Sarah, 7, also lived there and they, too, had a lodger. He was John Baker, 23, a mariner, RN, who had been born in Glynde.
Sometime between the Ordnance Survey of 1874 and the 1881 census the second pair of cottages were built. It is probable that the new pair of cottages had only recently been constructed in 1881 as B and J B Thorpe, builders of the Cliffe, Lewes, had quoted £115 for additions and repairs to be undertaken to two cottages at Ranscombe Farm. They also drew up a specification of the works to be done and it appears likely that the original cottages were to be brought up to the same standard as the recently built new pair.
Despite this, William Medhust, the tenant farmer at Ranscombe, had written to Lord Gage's agent in 1882 complaining about the lack of accomodation for his men.
The 1881 census names four 'Ranscombe Cottages', one still occupied by the Mitchells and the others by the families of George Allen and Robert Gillman, both agricultural labourers, and by Joseph Duplock, 41, a shepherd born in Glynde, with his wife Emily and their seven children.
In 1891 George Allen and Joseph Duplock still occupied two cottages and the others were lived in by Mary Webb, a 56 year old widow, her two agricultural labourer sons and a daughter and by Thomas Kenward, 60, also an agricultural labourer, born in Beddingham, his wife Elizabeth and two unmarried daughters and a grandson.
Ten years later the numbers of each cottage was given for the first time along with a more detailed description of what jobs on the farm the 'agricultural labourers' actually did. Number 1 was occupied by Arthur Goldsmith, aged 39 and born in Berwick, a carter on the farm; his wife Mary, 37, born in Laughton; and their sons Arthur, 15, a carter, and George, 12, a carter's boy. Number 2 was unoccupied on census night. Fred Foord, a cowman, lived at number 3, with his wife Emma and their three young sons. Living at number 4 were George Allen, still described as an agricultural labourer, his wife Maria, four of their children and a boarder named Charles Dunk, a 21 year-old cattleman on the farm.
The more detailed 1911 census not only gave the numbers of the cottages but also the number of rooms. Number 1 was occupied by George Newell, 53, a carter, born in Buckinghamshire; his wife Ellen, 50, born in Hertfordshire. They had been married 27 years and Ellen had given birth to eight children but only six of them were still alive, five of whom were still living with their parents. The cottage had 4 rooms, including the kitchen but excluding the scullery, landing, lobby, closet and bathroom (if there was one).
Living at number 2 were Fred Parker, 39, a farm labourer from West Sussex, and his wife Emily, 43, born in Tangmere. They had been married 15 years and had two children who were both living with them. George Deadman, a 73 year old farm labourer who also received the recently introduced old-age pension was a boarder in the house. This cottage, like number 3 and 4, had five rooms.
Frederick Akehurst, 47, cowman, born in East Dean, was living at number 3 with his wife Kezia, 47, also born in East Dean. They had been married for 26 years and had six children who were all still alive. Three of the children were living with their parents, along with two boarders: George Holding, a 24 year old roadman, and Henry Webb, 19, another cowman.
At number 4 was Maria Allen, widow of George. She was 64 and a laundress. She had had ten children, six of whom were still alive. Four of the children were living with her including her widowed daughter Dora Pope, 28, who had a daughter living in the house along with another of Maria's grandchildren.

Over the past 28 years, King's Spark Innovations has established itself as a reputable resource for idea people. The company is an award-winning industrial design and products development firm.
They specialize in working with clients to bring their visions to life and nurturing them into self-sustaining businesses.
The Spark team is comprised of mechanical engineers and industrial designers, with a broad skill set. Operating out of an unassuming house on King Road, Spark Innovations' design studio is an impressive powerhouse. Their main floor showroom features a wide assortment of materialized ideas.
There are three types of notions: the kind that you're happy keeping to yourself, the kind that you want to bring to life (just to say you did), and the kind that could make you rich.
If you have an idea but, haven't acted on it, chances are you also have a few reasons holding you back. Maybe you don't know where to start. Perhaps you are worried about somebody stealing it, or you aren't sure it is doable.
Many of the world's best, most significant and lucrative inventions were born out of a combination of frustration and intimate insight. Just think of how things like the belt buckle, cup or blanket ended up as household items. Somebody got tired of tightening that rope around their waist or bringing water to their face instead of their face to the water, or they were cold and didn't like it. So, they did something about it.
The only reasons we know about them are that the people who came up with those solutions weren't the only ones who had those problems and the products they came up with were makable. Plus, they relied on the right resources.
More than likely, the world has missed out on a lot of brilliant ideas that never got explored just because those people didn't know who to consult with on next steps.
Sometimes, people arrive at Spark with little more than ideas to get things going. In other situations, products already exist, and clients want to turn them into something better. Spark collaborates with innovators to evolve ideas into a concept by exploring variations of those ideas.
Once ready to proceed, Spark's team of designers and engineers materialize concepts with professionally produced models and drawings, ready for application. Their output is used for everything from rapid prototypes on Spark's 3-D printer to product manufacturing and marketing.
Spark Innovations is a one-stop shop. They are adept at working with clients to develop prototypes, acquire patents, develop distribution channels and navigate the details related to bringing concepts to reality.
The company attracts a mix of clientele, servicing both large and small enterprises. Projects can be a re-imagination of an existing item, or they can be the solutions to age-old problems. In some cases, clients just need a final push to the finish line by way of a prototype, set of production drawings, or a website with e-commerce capability.
The intellectual property that people walk in with will remain theirs. In most cases, consumers and end-users have no idea that Spark was involved when they pick up something great that solves a headache for them. All they want to do is buy the product and take it home.
Spark does more than collaborating on materializing ideas. They also help you make sure that those ideas remain yours to benefit from, offering a wealth of resources and expertise related to patent development.
When Alessandro Volta came up with electrochemical battery cells, he made sure to protect his interests by patenting his discovery. Robert Noyce did the same with the microchip, which he created along side of Jack Kilby. Thanks to Noyce and Kilby, most people have long since forgotten the days when computers took up large rooms and needed several days to process information.
Though credited, Kilby didn't hold the microchip patent. He did hold patents for inventing both the hand-held calculator and the thermal printer.
What Volta, Noyce, Kilby, and so many others, had in common was how knowledgeable and immersed they were in the problems they were solving. Volta was a physicist. Noyce and Kilby were electrical engineers.
Not every idea needs to be that revolutionary to be worth protecting and exploring. One of Spark's clients worked in heating, air conditioning and ventilation. He was always going out on calls to offices where the ceiling air vent was blowing cold air right above somebody's desk.
Working with Spark, he developed a deflector (shown at middle right) that easily attaches to most ceiling vents and diffuses air along the ceiling, improving air circulation and making a lot of office workers much happier. It was a simple idea that turned into a nice business for their client.
Another obstacle which keeps people from exploring great ideas further is their lack of certainty that their idea is original enough. Spark's extensive experience and access to legal experts who specialize in patents will ensure that the concept you come up with is one you can defend and monetize. With Spark Innovations, turning an idea into a self-sustaining business is likely easier than you imagine.
After protecting your ideas, the next hurdle Spark helps clients overcome is making sure the idea is physically possible to manufacture. The team does everything from determining the ideal materials to use, through to developing the product's ergonomic and aesthetic appeal.
So, yes, it makes sense why most people don't take their ideas further, despite being armed with solutions to problems that irritate a lot of people. Then again, maybe the only thing you need in order to go from thinking about it to holding it in your hand is asking for a signed non-disclosure agreement and having a conversation with the right people.

Jimmy Lyons
Jimmy Lyons (December 1, 1931 – May 19, 1986) was an alto saxophone player. He is best known for his long tenure in the Cecil Taylor Unit, being the only constant member of the pianist's group from the mid-1960s to his death, after which Taylor never worked with another musician as frequently. Lyons's playing, which usually retained a strong influence from bebop pioneer Charlie Parker, helped keep Tayor's often wildly avant garde music tethered to the jazz tradition.
He was born in Jersey City, New Jersey and brought up firstly there for his first 9 years, before his mother moved the family to Harlem and then the Bronx. He obtained his first saxophone in the mid-1940s and had lessons from Buster Bailey.
After high school, Lyons was drafted into the United States Army and spent 21 months on infantry duty in Korea, before spending around a year playing in army bands. On discharge, he attended New York University. By the end of the 1950s he was supporting his interest in music with day jobs in the Postal Service.

"Take the 'A' Train" is a jazz standard by Billy Strayhorn that was the signature tune of the Duke Ellington orchestra. It is arguably the most famous of the many compositions to emerge from the collaboration of Ellington and Strayhorn.
The use of the Strayhorn composition as the signature tune was made necessary by a ruling in 1940 by the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP). When ASCAP raised its licensing fees for broadcast use, many ASCAP members, including Ellington, could no longer play their compositions over radio, as most music was played live on radio at the time. Ellington turned to Billy Strayhorn and son Mercer Ellington, who were registered with ASCAP competitor BMI to "write a whole new book for the band," Mercer recalled. "'A' Train" was one of many songs written by Strayhorn, and was picked to replace "Sepia Panorama" as the band's signature song. Mercer recalled that he found the song in a trash can after Strayhorn discarded a draft of it because it sounded too much like a Fletcher Henderson arrangement. The song was first recorded on January 15, 1941 as a standard transcription for radio broadcast. The first (and most famous) commercial recording was made on February 15, 1941.

Officeworks is selling two models of the Pico Life eBook Reader, starting at AU$238. the Stash eBook reader with a colour LCD screen for AU$129. This appears to be the same unit as the Delstar DS1005 or DS1006 (with a 5 or 6 inch screen). One limitation seems to be the lack of support for the ePub eBook format, nor any wireless interface. The Pico specifications include ePub eBook format, but no wireless interface.

View More Works By This Artist
Lisson Gallery is pleased to present a selection of important works by Hélio Oiticica, occupying both New York galleries. An artist with indisputable influence on all aspects of Brazilian avant-garde culture—visual art, music, theatre, literature and more—this exhibition demonstrates the profound impact his ideas had on the wider art world, both past and present. Oiticica was a prolific and inquisitive thinker in his short lifetime, and the works featured here include examples of his exploration and expansion of formal artistic modes, and layered approach, pushing the boundaries of the possibilities of colour and structure, as well as representations of his investigation into experiential, environmental art and interactive installation. This evolution underlines his multidimensional development and ultimately the cosmological ideas that guided his approach to art and life.
On view at 504 West 24th Street is Oiticica's ground breaking, large-scale installation Tropicália (1966–1967). Conceived in late 1966 and created in 1967, Tropicália was the first architecturally scaled installation that the artist realised, and the first in a series of works that would portray, and critique, his native country of Brazil. In this work, Oiticica addresses the clichés of the country's association with a tropical paradise, including bright colours, sand, and exotic birds and flowers. It is composed of two Penetrables, small wooden shed-like structures referencing Brazil's favela shantytowns, arranged to form a maze and intended to be entered and explored. PN2 (Purity is a Myth) is the smaller closet-like structure of the two, composed of wood panels, each painted a different colour, with the phrase 'Purity is a myth' ('a pureza é um mito') printed in Portuguese on the inside. PN3 (Imagetical) incorporates fabric coverings and patterns in its larger construction, which weaves around until the visitor confronts the black and white television emitting continuous images and sounds from local stations. These structures are surrounded entirely by sand and gravel pathways which circle the island-like construction. Vibrantly coloured macaws occupy another structure and objects scattered throughout—bricks, metal signs and cardboard—display handwritten poems by Roberta Salgado.
Tropicália's sharp characterisation of Brazil's conflicted contemporary identity inspired the title of Caetano Veloso's popular anthem against Brazil's dictatorship, but also gave rise to a larger cultural movement addressing the country's changing dynamics titled Tropicalismo. Widely regarded as the artist's most important work, combining the many dimensions he explores throughout his practice, Tropicália has been included in over twenty major museum exhibitions of the artist's work since its creation. The other two editions (in the edition of three), are held in the permanent collections of the Tate Modern, London, and Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia, Madrid.
While Tropicália signifies his first realised architectural project, Hunting Dogs Project (Projeto cães de caça) set precedents for much of Oiticica's most important work—collaboration, individual contemplation, experiential action, and social interaction—and marks his first invention of a social place and inhabitable site. The work's title comes from a spiral nebula discovered in the 17th century by a Polish astronomer who believed it looked like two canines. Created in 1961, it is a maquette for an unrealised public garden, composed of several Penetrables meant to resemble a labyrinth or archeological site, as well as a theatre to be controlled by the participant, and a set of stacked boxes which the visitor physically excavates, unveiling a buried poem as each layer is removed. This early maquette is on view at 508 West 24th Street, alongside other models for large-scale yet unrealised projects—Subterranean Tropicália Projects (1971) and Ready Constructible 1 (1978). Oiticica was awarded a Guggenheim Foundation fellowship in 1970, thus bringing him to New York where the idea for Subterranean Tropicália Projects percolated as he dreamt of realising a major public installation in Central Park. By September 1971, he had a proposal for the work containing four Penetrables on two stories, with mazes and gardens, spaces for dancing, including a yellow room for swing dancing, and built-in spaces for performances. Despite the title, the work was not intended for installation below ground. Rather, the word 'subterranean' refers obliquely to the situation in Brazil under dictatorship in which the country buried itself metaphorically. Advancing his ideas for communal, collaborative spaces, Oiticica envisioned this work as the complex culmination of the ethical environments from earlier work, all in the heart of the busy metropolis of Manhattan. Ultimately, financing for the project and navigation of the bureaucracies of city regulations left the project uncompleted, but Oiticica published images of the maquette and a description of how to execute the installation in Changes magazine in 1972 with the hope that it would someday be realised, even if not by himself. After returning to Rio de Janeiro, he created Ready Constructible 1 and similar maquettes in the following years. By instead creating models which focused on demonstrative structures that suggest a certain visualisation of the work's objecthood, he purposefully suspended specificity of scale.
The genesis of Oiticica's ideas for his more ambitious projects came from his early works on paper, where the colour and structure begin to become inseparable and start to define the movement into the third dimension. The selection of gouache on cardboard works on view at 508 West 24th Street demonstrate the geometry and intuition of Oiticica's early practice, his engagement with the work of European modernists like Paul Klee, Piet Mondrian and Kazimir Malevich, the influence of his studies with Ivan Serpa, and his association with the pivotal Group Frente in Rio de Janeiro. As the youngest member of this influential group, he led the charge for their innovation with his own distinct exploration of space, colour and technique. These works would be distilled of their representative elements, colour and surface texture in the late 1950s, evolving into another of Oiticica's well-known series of works, the 'Sêcos' and then the 'Metaesquemas'. These dynamic compositions begin to break the frame's boundaries, foreshadowing the later works, and expanding the artistic possibilities of painting into another dimension.
To coincide with the exhibition, Lisson Gallery will present a rare 1958 Metaesquema oil on canvas painting at TEFAF New York Online from November 1–4. Oiticica's work is also the subject of a major exhibition this autumn at Museo de Arte de São Paulo – MASP (October 13–November 22, 2020). Hélio Oiticica: Dance in My Experience is curated by Adriano Pedrosa and Tomás Toledo, and investigates the artist's performative works.

The Republic of South Africa is the country at the southern tip of Africa. It borders the Atlantic and Indian oceans and Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Swaziland, and Lesotho, an independent enclave surrounded by South African territory. South Africa is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations, and is widely regarded as the most socially and economically developed country on the continent.
South Africa has experienced a different history from other nations in Africa because of early immigration from Europe and the strategic importance of the Cape Sea Route. European immigration began shortly after the Dutch East India Company, in 1652, founded a station at what would become Cape Town. The closure of the Suez Canal during the Six-Day War exemplifies its significance. The country's relatively developed infrastructure made its mineral wealth available and important to Western interests, particularly throughout the late nineteenth century and, with international competition and rivalry, during the Cold War. South Africa is ethnically diverse, with the largest white, Indian, and racially mixed communities in Africa.

A beautiful and unspoiled destination with endless sandy beaches, the Southern Right Whale and many other attractions for the tourist. St Sebastian Bay on the Cape South Coast is by far the most important nursery area for Southern Right Whales on the African Coast. In a recent aerial survey (October 1999), a total of 126 adults and 107 calves were counted at St Sebastian Bay and off De Hoop. This total constituted 61% of all the calves seen between Nature's Valley and Muizenberg.

Acts of Parliament (Primary Legislation);
Regulations, Rules, Orders, Bylaws (Subsidiary Legislation); and
EU Law including decisions of the ECJ.
The Constitution is the basic source of national law and stipulates that laws are passed by Parliament in the form of Acts of Parliament, but that Parliament may delegate legislative powers to other bodies (i.e. ministers, authorities, public bodies etc.) which are empowered to make subsidiary legislation within the sphere of authority delegated to them by an Act of Parliament.
The national legal order must also be viewed in the context of EU legislation, and especially the Treaty of Accession.
In Malta, there is no judge made law: The Court interprets the law as contained in the various enactments. This does not mean however that judicial precedents are not authoritative. In fact judges as a general rule do not depart from a well settled principle established by case law, if not for grave reason. It is also the practice in the Inferior Courts to follow the principle laid down on points of law by a Superior Court.
Types of legal instruments - description
International treaties may also form part of Malta's domestic legislation.
The European Convention on Human Rights
By virtue of an Act of the Maltese Parliament, Act XIV of 1987, the European Convention of Human Rights was incorporated into Maltese law. No law in Malta may be inconsistent with the rights and freedoms set out in the Convention. The power of review is vested in the Courts.
Hierarchy of norms
At national level, the Constitution is the supreme law of the land, followed by Acts of Parliament, followed by subsidiary legislation. However, as noted above, the Treaty of Accession and EU regulations are legally binding and operative in Malta, as in all Member States, and must be taken into account along with EU law in general.
Institutions responsible for the adoption of legal rules
In essence, a system of checks and balances between the legislature, executive and judiciary is followed. While the three pillars exercise legislative, executive and judicial powers in their own sphere, the system of checks and balances, which Malta inherited from English principles of the rule of law, allows smooth operation of the legal system in Malta.
Decision - making process
Malta follows the British parliamentary system, which is not surprising following 180 years of British rule. A minister proposes a draft law, which is then published in the Gazette for a first reading to be given in Parliament. Depending on the importance of the law in question a white paper may or may not be published beforehand. The House of Representatives then forms a committee and, after a second reading where members of Parliament are given the opportunity to comment in general terms on the particular piece of legislation in question, the Committee Stage examines each and every article in detail and proposes any amendments. When the Committee Stage is completed the Bill is sent back to Parliament for a final third reading, is subsequently given assent to by the President of the Republic and then becomes law.
The general rule is that a law enters into force on the date of publication, unless specifically stated in the law itself that the minister concerned may bring the law (or part of the law) into force on a different date.

Happy easter. Woke up to no chocolate eggs so had to substitute it for dippy egg with soldiers. Decided not to go and get the tent so instead went to the beach. Chilled on the beach. Ended up doing 3 loads of washing. In the night we watched 2 sad films. Shed a few tears then went to bed crying.
