Pictured here are 7 barrels with a noticeable gap in height in the middle. Also there are larger and smaller ones, Schiffer says up to 10" high and small ones of 1". These 7 range from 1 3/8" to 4 7/8" high. It is believed that canisters were used to hold tea and spices. They nest nicely together which made them easy to ship.

Before President Trump boarded his plane to Dayton, Ohio and El Paso, Texas on Wednesday to meet with communities in mourning, he spoke with reporters on the White House lawn. The press particularly wanted to know what he thought of his accusers tying his rhetoric to the shooting in El Paso. The suspect used language similar to that of Trump's immigration remarks in his online manifesto, according to some.

"My critics are political people," Trump said. "They're trying to make points. In many cases, they are running for president and they're very low in the polls."
He couldn't be more right if he's talking about presidential candidates Ohio Rep. Tim Ryan and former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke, both of whom are struggling to gain even single digit support. As representatives of last weekend's targeted states, they've been two of the most vocal critics of Trump since the shootings. O'Rourke has been especially condemnatory, saying on Monday that Trump has been "reveling in the hatred and the racism" in the country. He's thrown in a few expletives too. The president told him to "be quiet," but other than that he hasn't said much of the critique.
"As much as possible, I've tried to stay out of that," Trump said at the White House on Wednesday.
In fact, when discussing the shooting in Dayton, which was orchestrated by a young man who claimed to be a "leftist," Trump said he didn't blame Democrats for the bloodshed. He blamed "sick people."

"I don't blame Elizabeth Warren, and I don't blame Bernie Sanders in the case of Ohio," Trump explained. "And I don't blame anybody. These are sick people….it's a mental problem."
The president didn't seem surprised by the Democratic candidates' public criticism of him, but he was a little miffed by Dayton Mayor Nan Whaley's attitude. When he spoke with her last weekend she "could not have been nicer," he said. Yet, when speaking to reporters on Tuesday, she said that the president has been "unhelpful" and she plans to tell him that herself. She also encouraged protesters to do their thing when he arrives.
Again, Trump said, "they're trying to make political points."

Find Movie Downloading Place and Enjoy National Treasure Book of Secrets
Buckle your seat-belt for the ride of a lifetime � download �National Treasure: Book of Secrets� from your favorite online movie download site today. As of June 2, 2008, this Disney treasure is available for you to view whenever you want to. Filled with more action than you can imagine, this film which runs 2 hour and five minutes, will have you sitting on the edge of your seat.
From the beginning of the film until the final credits roll, viewers are taken on a globe-trotting romp. Partly based on actual history, the film is also party myth and part mystery. That combination produces intrigue, hi-jinx and a great deal of fun which is suitable for the entire family.
This is a sequel to Disney�s original �National Treasure� which was released in 2004. Sequels are often very disappointing; that is not the case with this movie. Movie critics and viewers agree it is a great movie with an all-star cast. Filled with action, adventure, thrills and spills, �Book of Secrets� follows Ben Gates on this treasure hunt. The movie is especially entertaining because it is a unique blend of mystery, myth and real history.
It delivers on all three levels and even features some cute comedy. Ben Gates is not alone on his journey; he is accompanied by Patrick Gates, his father. Played by fellow Best Actor Oscar-winner, Jon Voight, Patrick is also a spirited adventurer-at-heart and eagerly participates to help Ben search for the Lost City. The onscreen chemistry between Cage and Voight is evident and endearing.
Nick Cage�s performance is outstanding; he brings Ben Gates back to life as he reprises this role. Jon Voight is magical on-screen; playing Patrick Gates as a fun-loving intellectual who loves the hunt as much as his son does. Helen Mirren is always spectacular and she shines in the role of Ben�s mom, Dr. Emily Appleton. Professor Appleton, who has long been estranged from Patrick, joins her family on their quest for truth. Long since divorced from Patrick, Emily is nonetheless convinced to join her family in this search for truth.
Two other great performances are turned in by the lovely Diane Kruger, who plays Abigail Chase � who has a relationship with Ben and by Harvey Keitel, who plays the irascible Agent Sadusky. Harvey Keitel is, perhaps, best know for his performance in Taxi Driver, opposite Robert Di Nero. The final clue, however, will not be revealed until Ben kidnaps an important American politician. Ben is aided and accompanied by love interest, Abigail Chase, played well by relative newcomer, Diane Kruger. Ben, Patrick, Emily and Abigail take viewers on a once in a lifetime ride full of surprising twists and turns. It would be virtually impossible to be bored watching this movie.
Movie downloading sites released �National Treasure: Book of Secrets� in early June. Already, millions of people have downloaded the film. Visit your favorite site and download the movie; you will want to watch it over and over again!.

Patrick Vieira sacked by Nice after being linked with the Newcastle job last summer
Vieira has been relieved of his duties after two-and-a-half years at the helm at the Allianz Riviera Stadium

Patrick Vieira has been sacked as manager of Nice, 17 months after being linked with the Newcastle United job.
The former Arsenal, France, Juventus, Inter Milan and Manchester City midfielder was on the Magpies' radar last summer when Rafa Benitez opted against signing a new deal at St James' Park.
However, the 44-year-old World Cup winner quickly ruled himself out of the running and, with Steve Bruce eventually taking the reins on Tyneside.
"I am at OGC Nice long-term. I have no intention of going elsewhere," Vieira replied when asked about the Newcastle job in July 2019.
"I've always felt good here and with the people around me. I can't see myself anywhere other than OGC Nice."
However, his two-and-a-half year reign as manager of Les Aiglons was ended this morning after Thursday evening's 3-2 defeat at home to Bayer Leverkusen saw them knocked out of the Europa League at the group stage.
"Patrick Vieira, who joined the club in the summer of 2018, is no longer head coach of OGC Nice, effective immediately," a Nice club statement read.
"In a meeting conducted after last night's match, the Nice Board informed Patrick Vieira of their decision to end their collaboration.

Lee Clark tells Miguel Almiron's agent to 'get back in his box' amid row with Steve Bruce
"The Rouge et Noir club has decided to appoint Adrien Ursea as head coach of the club's professional first team, as of today.
"The Swiss-Romanian tactician, who was assistant coach to Patrick Vieira and, before that, Lucien Favre, will take charge of his first Nice match as head coach this Sunday with the trip to Reims.
"Patrick Vieira put all his heart and professionalism into his service for OGC Nice over the last two and a half years of their collaboration.
"The Nice board sincerely thanks the former France international for his commitment and dedication to the development of the club and wishes him every future success in his coaching career."

Recent fallout over the long-running takeover saga at Newcastle United hasn't just been the talk of Tyneside - it was the talk of the footballing world.
Now, Steve Bruce must recollect his team and push forward without the change of ownership and new backing.
However, the twists and turns aren't over, with current owner Mike Ashley 'considering all options' after the Premier League rejected the £300m takeover.

After an illustrious playing career, Vieira made the step into management in 2016 when he took over at New York City. Vieira transformed New York City from also-rans to play-off contenders during his two seasons in charge at the Yankee Stadium and that led to a return to his native France.
Nice made the bold move of appointing Vieira and a seventh placed finish in Ligue 1 was backed up by a fifth placed finish last season and a return to European competition.
However, a disappointing start to this season saw Nice fall to 11th in the league table and after Thursday's Europa League exit, and a fifth defeat in a row, the Nice board decided it was time to act amid fan protests over the team's performances.

It looks like we just saw one of the first moves Apple is making with its nearly $100 billion cash reserve. The company has reportedly bought app discovery service Chomp.
Apple sells apps. Chomp makes finding apps easier. It doesn't take much imagination to think of what Apple might do with this acquisition. You can expect Apple to eventually integrate some of Chomp's functionality into a revamped App Store search system.
The App Store has so many applications that it isn't always easy to find what you're looking for. Sure, if you know the exact name of the app a quick search will give you what you want. But what if you have a vague idea of the type of app you want, and would like some ideas?
Chomp eases that burden by organizing apps by function. So if you're looking for, say, a great VoIP app, search for "VoIP apps" and get more appropriate results than you would by conducting the same search in the App Store. It also lists free and discounted apps, as well as trending apps.
Chomp has apps for both iOS and Android, as well as a website that lets you search for apps on both platforms. Now that Apple has bought Chomp, we wouldn't expect to see the Android part stick around for long. Chomp also has an existing deal with Verizon to power the carrier's app-based searches, so it will be interesting to see how that plays out. The source reports that the Android features will hang around until the acquisition is complete and the team has been integrated into Apple.
It's hard to say what kind of timeline we'll be looking at for this overhauled App Store search mechanism. Will it be ready in time for iOS 6 (possibly introduced at WWDC in June and released in Fall), or will it take longer? For reference, Apple's most prominent recent acquisition, Siri, had about a year and a half turnaround time between the company's purchase and the service's release.

This Calgary activist group is teaching people to be non-violent protesters
By Gabrielle Pyska and Keanna Rapin | @gabriellepyska @keannarapin | gpyska@cjournal.ca krapin@cjournal.ca
Some Calgarians seem to be hostile towards climate change activists, however, Extinction Rebellion Calgary continues to hold workshops to train people to be non-violent protesters.
Despite the non-violent nature of its demonstrations, Calgarians took to social media to say things like, "Stay out of Calgary please" and, "I would have arrested you" when Extinction Rebellion took to Memorial Drive on Oct. 7 for the worldwide bridge-out, an event where Extinction Rebellion protesters all over the world blocked main roads and bridges to attract media attention.
Comments also included Calgarians saying things like, "If you want to make a difference, stop consuming," and, "Nice sign made of hydrocarbons."
In addition to this, some Calgarians have shown hostility through the mainstream media.
An article from CBC talks directly to locals about their feelings towards climate strikers. An oil and gas industry insider from the article stated that, "demands by organizers of Friday's Global Climate Strike to transition swiftly away from fossil fuels to 100 per cent renewable energy are naïve and unrealistic."
Another source from the same article, Hal Kvisle, said, "The strikes themselves are not offering any answers."
Additionally, Rick Bell, a columnist from the Calgary Sun wrote an opinion piece on Extinction Rebellion Calgary, in which his headline read, "Calgarians show enviro-wacko protesters who's boss."
Despite these negative opinions, Extinction Rebellion Calgary is still choosing to spread their message through protesting in a non-violent way, in hopes of bringing about a radical shift in society.
Ginny Kloos, a coordinator for Extinction Rebellion Calgary says, "Extinction Rebellion is really inspired by [past activists' groups in history] to try to kickstart a radical shift that is desperately needed for us to continue living on this world and living in a more just way for all humans."
Participants gather around the projector as the presenters discuss the importance of the non-violent direct-action trainings, as well as the different ways people can participate during protests. Photo by Keanna Rapin.
Kloos says their hope is to break down the divisions between oil and gas workers and activists in Calgary.
"We don't want to create enemies or divisions in society. We know that especially in Calgary there's quite a bit of history of strong adversity between the oil culture here and environmental activists."
Kloos hopes to open up the conversation about climate change to all Calgarians through Extinction Rebellion's non-violent direct-action trainings.
"[We're trying to see] how we can change the discussion of climate change and oil and gas to see if we can reach out to more people in Calgary specifically, bring[ing] oil and gas workers into this movement," she says.
"Because it's their future too and it's their children too."
Preparing for protests
A.C, who prefers to only use his initials due to his concern that his climate activist position could impact his academic standing, is a participant in the Extinction Rebellion movement and has attended more than one non-violent direct-action training.
He says his role in the movement is working with people to bring awareness to the issue of climate change.
"Anytime we put people together who are trying to move things, change focus, and change attention... I am just trying to network and amplify," says A.C.
In order to prepare themselves for future protests, Extinction Rebellion Calgary organizers continue to hold non-violent direct-action training sessions to help their members know what to expect during tense situations.
One such session happened towards the end of October. In a rented room in downtown Calgary, the main coordinators adjusted the tables and chairs to form a U-shape that faced the projector at the front of the room — this made it easier to start discussions between the presenters and other members.
The event began with coordinators providing information on what Extinction Rebellion is, and what the group's demands were through a presentation.
After this, members began the physical portion of the training by practicing passive protesting — a form of protesting in which activists become "limp" or refuse to move when asked.
While people took turns being carried and moved around by others in the training, they began to smile and talk about different ways to protest peacefully. A.C. says the takeaway from non-violent direct-action trainings is learning ways to deal with conflict during protests.
"The clearest takeaway is the strategies to keep non-violent and to keep calm in the face of angry people, whether it is authority or counter protesters," he says.
Three participants of the non-violent direct-action training practice a form of "passive protesting," in which the protester goes limp and uses their body weight to make it harder for authorities to move them during a protest. Photo by Keanna Rapin.
During a global strike with the Friday for Future group, A.C says he used what he learned at the non-violent direct-action training to de-escalate a tense situation between a protester and an angry Calgarian.
"We had the numbers [at the protest] to support a total traffic block," he explains.
"[Someone in their car jolted] forward into this intersection and one of the protesters motioned as if he was going to kick the car, so the guy got out of the car [and began yelling at them]. So, tensions are high."
A.C says his ability to calm the situation using his non-violent direct-action training made him feel more at ease.
"I felt really good about having the non-violent direct-action training in that instance because I had the tools to remain calm in the face of high tensions and to be able to step in between one of our friends and this aggressor," he says.
"It felt really empowering."
Not only have these non-violent direct-action trainings helped A.C, but they've also bridged the gap between protesters and oil and gas workers on what Extinction Rebellion Calgary is. Kloos says the trainings are helping participants get Extinction Rebellion's main message across — they are non-violent and a peaceful activist group.
"That's what the purpose of these non-violent direct-action trainings are," Kloss explains.
"To really teach people how to remain calm in their bodies and just get that clear message across that we are peaceful, and we are doing this out of our love for each other and wanting a better world."
Kloos says despite the challenges of protesting in Calgary — an oil and gas-based city — Extinction Rebellion will continue to fight for their message to be heard.
"We know what our message is and we're not going to change that in any way to appease people in the public," she says.
"If it's going to result in some adversity, then that's to be expected."
Kloos says that coming from a place of non-violence is the key to successful movements in the future.
"We are going to keep pushing for what our values are and what we believe in and ideally try to come from a place of non-violence, love and openness."

The End of Alchemy
Money, Banking and the Future of the Global Economy
By: Mervyn King
The past 20 years saw unprecedented growth and stability followed by the worst financial crisis the industrialised world has ever witnessed. In the space of little more than a year, what had been seen as the age of wisdom was viewed as the age of foolishness. Almost overnight, belief turned into incredulity. Most accounts of the recent crisis focus on the symptoms and not the underlying causes of what went wrong.

The Real Business of Finance
By: John Kay
Narrated by: Walter Dixon
The finance sector of Western economies is too large and attracts too many of the smartest college graduates. Financialization over the past three decades has created a structure that lacks resilience and supports absurd volumes of trading. The finance sector devotes too little attention to the search for new investment opportunities and the stewardship of existing ones, and far too much to secondary-market dealing in existing assets. Regulation has contributed more to the problems than the solutions.

Greed Is Dead
Politics After Individualism
By: Paul Collier, John Kay
Narrated by: Peter Noble
The idea that people are basically driven by individualism and economic incentives and that prosperity and good societies come from top-down leadership has dominated politics for the last 30 years (from some perspectives, much longer). This book shows that the age of homo economicus and centralisation is coming to an end. Instead, Collier and Kay argue that community and mutuality will be the drivers of successful societies in the future - as they are already in some parts of the world.

Narrative Economics
How Stories Go Viral and Drive Major Economic Events
By: Robert J. Shiller
Narrated by: Susan Osman, Robert J. Shiller - introduction
Spread through the public in the form of popular stories, ideas can go viral and move markets - whether it's the belief that tech stocks can only go up or that housing prices never fall. Whether true or false, stories like these - transmitted by word of mouth, by the news media, and increasingly by social media - drive the economy by driving our decisions about how and where to invest, how much to spend and save, and more. But despite the obvious importance of such stories, most economists have paid little attention to them. Narrative Economics sets out to change that.
This book does exactly what is says on the tin !!!! (Very well read)
By Mr. Stephen S. Alderman on 01-04-21
By: Matthew C. Klein, Michael Pettis
Narrated by: Bob Souer
Trade disputes are usually understood as conflicts between countries with competing national interests, but as Matthew C. Klein and Michael Pettis show in this book, they are often the unexpected result of domestic political choices to serve the interests of the rich at the expense of workers and ordinary retirees. Klein and Pettis trace the origins of today's trade wars to decisions made by politicians and business leaders in China, Europe, and the United States over the past 30 years.

The 10,000-Year Rise of the World Economy
By: Philip Coggan
Narrated by: Kris Dyer, Philip Coggan
Economics may seem like a modern field, but its object of study is ancient. Resources have been exchanged and distributed since the dawn of history, and the economies that arose from those transactions were more complex than you might expect. In this panorama of the development of trade and industry, Economist columnist Philip Coggan tracks the development of the world economy starting with the first obsidian blades that made their way from Turkey to what is now the Iran-Iraq border 7,000 years before Christ, and ending with the Sino-American trade war that we are in right now.
The Deficit Myth
Modern Monetary Theory and How to Build a Better Economy
By: Stephanie Kelton
Narrated by: Stephanie Kelton
Any ambitious proposal - ranging from fixing crumbling infrastructure to Medicare for all or preventing the coming climate apocalypse - inevitably sparks questions: how can we afford it? How can we pay for it? Stephanie Kelton points out how misguided those questions really are by using the bold ideas of modern monetary theory (MMT), a fundamentally different approach to using our resources to maximise our potential as a society.

Eswar Prasad explains the world of finance is at the threshold of major disruption that will affect corporations, bankers, states, and indeed all of us. The transformation of money will fundamentally rewrite how ordinary people live. Above all, Prasad foresees the end of physical cash. The driving force won't be phones or credit cards but rather central banks, spurred by the emergence of cryptocurrencies to develop their own, more stable digital currencies.

By: Pablo Triana
Narrated by: Erik Synnestvetd
For the past few decades, the financial world has often displayed an unreasonable willingness to believe that "the model is right, the market is wrong," in spite of the fact that these theoretical machinations were largely responsible for the stock market crash of 1987, the LTCM crisis of 1998, the credit crisis of 2008, and many other blow-ups, large and small.

The Remarkable Story of Risk
By: Peter L. Bernstein
Narrated by: Mike Fraser
In this unique exploration of the role of risk in our society, Peter Bernstein argues that the notion of bringing risk under control is one of the central ideas that distinguishes modern times from the distant past. Against the Gods chronicles the remarkable intellectual adventure that liberated humanity from oracles and soothsayers by means of the powerful tools of risk management that are available to us today. This brand new audio edition of Bernstein's classic work is masterfully narrated by Mike Fraser.

How a Band of Wall Street Renegades Invented the Index Fund and Changed Finance Forever
By: Robin Wigglesworth
Narrated by: Christopher Grove
Index funds are the most widely influential investment vehicles available. They have revolutionised investing by saving millions of people billions of dollars in fees that would otherwise have gone to fund managers. It is no exaggeration to say that the rise of passive investing is probably one of the most consequential financial inventions of the past half-century, by rewiring markets and reshaping the finance industry. Yet some detractors say that index investing is an insidious disease, and index funds may have cataclysmic consequences that we aren't even aware of yet.
Very good book

In Noise, Daniel Kahneman, Olivier Sibony and Cass R. Sunstein show how noise produces errors in many fields, including in medicine, law, public health, economic forecasting, forensic science, child protection, creative strategy, performance review and hiring. And although noise can be found wherever people are making judgments and decisions, individuals and organizations alike commonly ignore its impact, at great cost.

Deaths of Despair and the Future of Capitalism
By: Anne Case, Angus Deaton
Narrated by: Kate Harper
Life expectancy in the United States has recently fallen for three years in a row - a reversal not seen since 1918 or in any other wealthy nation in modern times. In the past two decades, deaths of despair from suicide, drug overdose, and alcoholism have risen dramatically, and now claim hundreds of thousands of American lives each year - and they're still rising. Case and Deaton, known for first sounding the alarm about deaths of despair, explain the overwhelming surge in these deaths and shed light on the social and economic forces that are making life harder for the working class.

The Man from the Future
The Visionary Life of John von Neumann
By: Ananyo Bhattacharya
Narrated by: Nicholas Camm
The smartphones in our pockets and computers like brains. The vagaries of game theory and evolutionary biology. Self-replicating moon bases and nuclear weapons. All bear the fingerprints of one remarkable man: John von Neumann. Born in Budapest at the turn of the century, von Neumann is one of the most influential scientists to have ever lived. His colleagues believed he had the fastest brain on the planet - bar none.

How Innovation Works
Serendipity, Energy and the Saving of Time
By: Matt Ridley
Narrated by: Matt Ridley
Innovation is the main event of the modern age, the reason we experience both dramatic improvements in our living standards and unsettling changes in our society. It is innovation that will shape the 21st century. Yet innovation remains a mysterious process, poorly understood by policy makers and businessmen alike. Matt Ridley argues that we need to see innovation as an incremental, bottom-up, fortuitous process that happens as a direct result of the human habit of exchange, rather than an orderly, top-down process developing according to a plan.
Positive and fascinating
By John upfield on 14-02-21
Longlisted for the FT McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award 2020.
This major, critically acclaimed work asks a vitally important question for today: when uncertainty is all around us, and the facts are not clear, how can we make good decisions?
We do not know what the future will hold, particularly in the midst of a crisis, but we must make decisions anyway. We regularly crave certainties which cannot exist and invent knowledge we cannot have, forgetting that humans are successful because we have adapted to an environment that we understand only imperfectly. Throughout history we have developed a variety of ways of coping with the radical uncertainty that defines our lives.
This incisive and eye-opening book draws on biography, history, mathematics, economics and philosophy to highlight the most successful - and most short-sighted - methods of dealing with an unknowable future. Ultimately, the authors argue, the prevalent method of our age falls short, giving us a false understanding of our power to make predictions, leading to many of the problems we experience today.

What listeners say about Radical Uncertainty
Philip Thorne
An important topic we'll described but lacking advice
I loved all the themes talked about in this book and the structure around them.
The importance of uncertainty and risk, the history of probability, it's impact on economics
However, the key question for our time is what do we do about all this? How do we build adaptive systems.

Utterly Brilliant
Absolutely essential reading if you want to know what's wrong with the way Finance has "functioned". Working in the City myself I recognise so many of these flaws. If you are interested in how we can organise and plan for a better world - listen to this book.
N. E. Hargreaves
Highly recommended, I really enjoyed every moment of this audio book. complex in points and will defo warrant another listen.
Economics may have a practical futue
Thorough examination of the foundations of decision theory with profound implications for the "science" of economics. The shape of a more limited but more useful toolkit emerges.

Ask most people in the United Kingdom about steel windows, and they will talk about the ubiquitous, mass-produced standard metal window.
A much smaller number will mention the use of the Universal Casement in the inspirational designs created by the world's foremost architects.
Steel windows were used by Frank Lloyd Wright at Fallingwater, regarded by many as his masterpiece.
Louis Cordonnier's Peace Palace in The Hague
Albert Kahn's General Motors Building, Detroit
Even fewer will talk of the architectural movements which were made possible because of the essential characteristics of steel windows.
Inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright, Walter Gropius founded the Bauhaus (House of Building), one of the most influential architecture and design schools of the 20th century.
The Hoover Building a Showpiece Art Deco Design in Perivale, Middlesex
My love affair with steel windows, and, with that, a dislike of inappropriate refurbishment, started very early in life. I was brought up in a row of imposing, large, Victorian semi detached houses, in a North Western town.
At the end of the row, the local coal merchant had built himself an art deco villa, with flat roof, white rendered walls, and sweeping curved corners.
A Typical Art Deco Villa
Eventually I went away to university, and started working in London. Then, on a visit home, I was horrified to find that it had been split into two houses, and the new owners had modernized it. One half of the flat roof was now pitched, the render on the other half had been replaced by pebbledash, and, worst of all, the curved steel windows had been replaced by facetted plastic.

So, how did a blacksmith's shop in a small market town in North Essex become the world leader in window manufacture, with manufacturing plants on five continents?
Metal windows had been used since Tudor times. The Elizabethan casement glazed with leaded lights was an architectural feature unique to Britain. Glass was so expensive in Britain that people took great care to ensure that the frames were strong. They were very popular as nearly every village had a skilled blacksmith who could manufacture them, but very few had skilled joiners to provide an alternative in timber.
Elizabethan Casement
With the advent of Palladio and Wren's architectural styles, coupled with improvements in the glass manufacturing process, the fashion for larger, more dignified house building, with corresponding larger windows, grew. The double-hung wooden sash window became the window of choice for the discerning homeowner.
The Courts, Holt, Wiltshire
However, there was some dissatisfaction with timber sash windows. Complaints ranged from broken sash cords, warped sashes, and sticking, shrinking or rattling.
Crittall's had been manufacturing metal windows for agricultural buildings, and churches using wrought iron, bronze, and increasingly with mild steel. With the attitude that epitomizes the spirit of the Victorian age, Francis Henry Crittall, with his team of skilled craftsmen, set out to develop an engineered window, made of metal, which would overcome all of the problems of the wooden sash.
At the same time, a number of companies around the country were manufacturing metal windows. Wragge's of Manchester were the pioneers; they were soon joined by Wenham & Walters, Williams & Williams, Hopes, and Burt & Potts.
Improvements in machine tools allowed the first change made to the design, which was the introduction of rudimentary dovetail joints for corners rather than brazing, which resulted in a considerably stronger and more reliable product than before.
Despite the improvements in the steel windows, they were not readily accepted in the residential market. However, in other sectors, the new windows were extremely popular. Projects included the National Gallery, Harrow School, the Royal College of Music, and the Public Records Office.
The next major development in the design of steel windows was the fenestra joint, which, because of its strength, allowed slimmer glazing bars, and therefore more daylight through the windows.
In 1909 following rationalisation work carried out by Walter "Pink" Crittall, the Universal Ranges of steel sections were launched which allowed improvements in the manufacturing process, with the result that consistent manufacture of steel windows could be achieved by semi-skilled workers, rather than skilled craftsmen as previously.
Cover of the 1911 Crittall Catalogue
Further innovations followed, including the welding of corners, hydraulic straightening of bars, and a dual strike plate for handles to allow night-time ventilation with no loss of security.
This all resulted in a better performing window, at a lower cost. However, the Universal Casement was still a luxury product at a premium price.
The First World War proved to be a turning point for the steel windows industry as a whole. Factories were turned over to the manufacture of munitions, and many lessons were learnt which would be adopted in the immediate post war era.
At the time, steel windows were still more expensive than their timber counterparts.
This was about to change.
Productivity improvements that could be gained as a result of standardisation, was the first lesson put into practice. Crittall's closest rivals, Henry Hope, proposed the adoption of a standard design, to help the steel window industry compete to supply windows for the 200,000 new homes promised to be built by the UK government in 1919.
A new, light, profile was designed to act as a mullion which would allow composite units to be built. Following long discussions with architects, standard units were designed, which matched the current brick sizes, and suited the height of the modern room.
The first project which used these 'cottage windows' was for the Admiralty in Chepstow. A typical window was sold for £1.95 including fittings which was a few pennies cheaper than the equivalent timber window without fittings. Further work was carried out for Bristol Corporation, which had a massive building programme for the post war years. The increased volume saw even further cost reductions.
Crittall Brochure for The Cottage Window
In 1920, following much canvassing by Valentine Crittall (later Lord Braintree), the Ministry of Health, at that time responsible for government housing specifications, agreed to include the standard cottage window in its plans for housing schemes. From then on, it was used in almost every housing scheme throughout Britain up until the 1980s.
The success of the steel window is due, in no small part, to the continuous improvement in product, and manufacturing processes.
Further innovations followed which include the development of a comprehensive range of standard metal windows, zincspra, and subsequently, hot-dipped galvanizing, to protect the steel frames, and the Duralife polyester powder coating to provide an enameled finish to the windows.
Performance improvements have been achieved by modified profiles to incorporate double glazed units, and improved weatherproofing.
Today, the steel window is no longer a high volume product in mass production. As a result, there are cheaper alternatives available. But, you get what you pay for.
Today's homeowners' decisions on refurbishment take into account energy performance and sustainability of the materials used.
The thermal performance of the modern replica steel window has been tested and proven to be 400% more efficient than the original single-glazed window.
Steel is the most recycled material in the world (source: http://www.sustainablesteel.org). The mild steel which goes to make today's steel window frames contains 98% recycled material.
In March this year, a West London homeowner was refused planning permission to replace his Crittall steel windows with aluminium units, on the basis that modern, double-glazed steel windows were readily available. (source: Planning Magazine)
In North America, the steel window is seen much more as an aspirational product, as can be seen by the images and comments at this popular North American interior design blog, appropriately named Things That Inspire The Crittall Windows' North American residential customer list reads like a Who's Who of successful businessmen, politicians, and entertainers.
Crittall Windows are so successful in North America that in April this year, it was announced that they had won the coveted Queens Award for Enterprise in International Markets. This British-owned, independent company, the largest supplier of steel windows in Europe, is now the No 2 supplier of steel windows to the North American market having built a distribution network from scratch following a management by out in 2004.

I am happy to know that your last show, which was held on Lewisham Fringe last November was successful. I think the event that you guys are organizing is really fun because I bet there are lots of people who have attended and enjoyed them. I am sure that these people are happy upon knowing that Scummy Mummies are back and aside from that, you will also offer 80 seats, which means that there are lots of slots for people who are interested in your show. I can't really wait to see your update here because I would really want to know some details about your show. Good luck and aim high!


"EVER VICTORIOUS" is the story of an idealistic military leader hailed as a genius for his ability to get the best from his soldiers and to artfully work with many of the most powerful international military and political leaders of his era. Through the many glorious public successes and debilitating sad private moments, Sun Li-jen is a leader who would not bow to adversity. The film celebrates the triumph of the human spirit under the harshest of circumstances.
The historical fiction screenplay takes place during the turbulent times of the Second Sino-Japanese War (1937–1945), the Chinese Civil War (1947–1948), and the Cold War that follows (1950–1990). It tells the story of General Sun Li-jen, arguably the most accomplished and famous Chinese military general of his time. He was described as "Rommel of the East" by the Allies for his daring leadership and his remarkable battlefield strategies. He was knighted by King George VI and awarded the Legion of Merit by President Franklin Roosevelt. Not as well-known in the Western history books as other famous military leaders of the time, although his actions and career are detailed in hundreds of TOP SECRET U.S. State Department memorandums, his life provides a compelling narrative for a new audience not as familiar with Eastern countries and cultures during the second half of the Twentieth Century. "Ever Victorious" is a story of bravery, military battles lost and won, political intrigue, treachery, and final redemption, all played out on an international stage.
For agents and producers, our latest screenplay "Ever Victorious" is available upon request.

Q: onListItemClick not working properly if images are loaded I had a custom listview with two textviews and an image view. On clicking of each row iam showing an custom dialog. After opening the listview and click on the row iam able to view the dialog whereas if i scroll and click on the row dialog is not displayed.
My onListItemclick code is as follows
`
final Dialog password = new Dialog(VCStegoInboxWithOutCheckboxes.this);
        password.setContentView(R.layout.dialog);
        password.setTitle("Enter your Password");

        final EditText getPassword = (EditText) password
                .findViewById(R.id.edconfirmpwd);
        Button okButton = (Button) password.findViewById(R.id.ok);
        okButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {

                String ConfirmCode = getPassword.getText().toString();
                SharedPreferences settingsActivity = getSharedPreferences(
                        "UserName", Activity.MODE_PRIVATE);
                String Password = settingsActivity.getString("Password", null);

                if (ConfirmCode.equals(Password)) {
                                        Intent showMsgIntent = new Intent();
                        showMsgIntent.setClass(getApplicationContext(),
                                VCStegoShowMessageScreen.class);

                        startActivity(showMsgIntent);

                } else {
                    Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "InvalidPassword",
                            Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

                }

                password.dismiss();

            }
        });
        Button cancelButton = (Button) password.findViewById(R.id.cancel);
        cancelButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                System.out.println("Entered on cancel button clicked");
                password.dismiss();

            }
        });
        password.show();

    }

Another thing i observed is if it is a textview (instead of imageview) even though if i scroll iam able to display dialog for each and every row.

The 2019/20 Serie A season was concluded last weekend with its usual twists and turns. The top six spots had already been sealed with a few games to spare but the battle to avoid the final relegation spot was open with one of Lecce and Genoa hoping to avoid the drop.
Ultimately, it was Lecce that took the dreaded spot along with Brescia and SPAL while Genoa will look forward to yet another season in the Italian top flight.
The season had its highs and lows as well as its major performers. In this post, we'll be taking a look at some of the best performers in Serie A this season according to their positions. To make it a bit more interesting, we'll be selecting players based on four-man defensive formation as it is more commonly used in the league than the three-man defensive formation. The three-man attack will also be used for the same reason.
Here's our Serie A team of the season.
GOALKEEPER: Wojciech Szczesny (Juventus)
The Juventus shot stopper was mostly reliable for his team this season despite having to alternate with Veteran, Gianluigi Buffon in the Juventus post. His eleven clean sheets in just twenty nine appearances is a better ratio when compared with Inter's Samir Handanovic (13 in 35), Udinese's Juan Musso (14 in 38) and Milan's Gianluigi Donnarumma (12 in 36). He also made 3.3 saves per game, which is a whopping 74% of the total shots he faced this season, a league-high among goalkeepers with 5 clean sheets or more.
RIGHT BACK: Davide Faraoni (Hellas Verona)
Verona really punched above their weight this season. Ivan Juric's men gained promotion from Serie B last summer and finished in an impressive ninth place this season. David Faraoni was one of the many bright spots in the team and deservedly takes his place in our team of the season. His ability to switch roles between Right wing back and Right back for Verona this season was helpful to the team's campaign and he capped off his season with five goals and three assists in his thirty-six league appearances for the club
CENTRE BACK: Stefan De Vrij (Inter)
After the appointment of Antonio Conte and the arrival of Diego Godin at Inter, the only thing that most Inter fans and neutrals could agree on was that the club had the best defensive combination in the league but as the league progressed, only one man stood out from the three, Stefan De Vrij. The Dutch centre back has been ever reliable for Inter this season, providing a calm presence and needed experience when it was needed, it's no surprise that his team finished with the least goals conceded and second highest clean sheet. De Vrij also contributed four goals and three assists to the club's campaign.
CENTRE BACK : Matthijs De Ligt (Juventus)
After a somewhat shaky start to life in the Italian league, De Ligt shrugged off any form of pressure that came with his price tag by constantly turning in good performances game after game. The Dutch defender proved that he could fill the void created by Giorgio Chiellini's injury by marshaling Juve's defence alongside Leonardo Bonucci this season. Juventus finished with the third best defence in the league.
LEFT BACK: Theo Hernandez (AC Milan)
Milan struggled a lot at the start of the season till the midway point but one player often stood out for them during that poor run, Theo Hernandez. The former Real Madrid full-back has adapted seamlessly into a new league and has outshone every other player in his position this season. His contribution to the team during and after their poor form cannot be overstated as he offered quality in both phases of the game this season. He had six goals and three assists to show for his efforts.
DEFENSIVE MIDFIELD: Manuel Locatelli (Sassuolo)
This Season, Manuel Locatelli showed that he has matured a lot. He provided an assuring presence in midfield for a Sassuolo side that was always focused on attacking regardless of the opponents. His 1.5 key passes and 2.3 tackles per game make him an important contributor in both attack and defence for a Sassuolo team that took points off five of the teams that finished in the top six this season, including Juventus.
CENTRAL MIDFIELD: Luis Alberto (Lazio)
With six goals and fifteen assists this season, Luis Alberto once again stood out for Lazio after having some kind of setback last season. The Spaniard was at the heart of everything creative for Simone Inzaghi's team and was a key element in the team's title challenge before the lockdown. Even though Lazio was unable to sustain the challenge, Alberto's efforts were still enough to earn the club a Champions League spot for the first time since 2015.
ATTACKING MIDFIELD: Alejandro Gomez (Atalanta)
Best attack in the Italian league and one of the most attacking sides in Europe's top five leagues and one man at the centre of it all, Alejandro Gomez. 'Papu' has he is often called has scored seven goals and broken the record for Serie A assists this season after providing sixteen for his teammates. The diminutive midfielder rarely had a bad game all season and it is often obvious to see why Gasperini's team struggles whenever he does not play well.
LEFT WING FORWARD : Cristiano Ronaldo (Juventus)
Christian Ronaldo's thirty-one goals this season were enough to singlehandedly win twelve matches for Juventus this season. To put that in context, it means that about forty-six percent of Juventus' matches in Serie A this season were won by Cristiano Ronaldo. At 35 years old, the man continues to defy common reasoning by constantly turning in fantastic numbers. He missed out on top scorer this season but still outscored the top scorers in three of Europe's top five leagues.
RIGHT WING FORWARD: Josip Ilicic (Atalanta)
Ilicii could only make twenty six appearances this season mainly because of the personal issues he had towards the end of the season but his fifteen goals and five assists for his team comfortably ranks him as the highest performing right wing forward in the league this season. Ilicic combined tricky skills, deft touches, and a good eye for scoring fantastic goals as he shined in Gasperini's three-man attack. His consistency this season stood out and his numbers could have been better if he played more games.
STRIKER: Ciro Immobile (Lazio)
A record-equalling season for the Lazio hitman as he scored thirty six goals to tie the record set by Gonzalo Higuian in the 2015/16 season for most goals in a single Serie A season. Immobile did not only score goals though, he also provided nine assists for his teammates putting him on forty-five goals/assists contribution, the most by any player in the league. His goals were helpful in sustaining Lazio's title challenge before the break and he didn't stop putting balls at the back of the net even after the challenge faded off.
HONOURABLE MENTIONS: Samir Handanovic (Inter), Giovanni Di Lorenzo (Napoli), Leonardo Bonucci (Juventus), Francesco Acerbi (Lazio), Robin Gosens (Atalanta), Eric Pulgar (Fiorentina), Sofyan Amrabat (Hellas Verona), Hakan Calhanoglu (AC Milan), Dejan Kulusevski (Parma), Romelu Lukaku (Inter).

Samson says:
Locatelli for me is questionable, one of Kessie or Bennacer had a better season if we strictly limiting the position to DM
Olugbenga Olonade says:
Bennacer is a valid shout. Just like Pulgar and Amrabat but one player had to be picked and we feel that Locatelli's job was harder due to the De Zerbi's system plus the key stats slightly favour Locatelli. Kessie is a box to box midfielder so he wasn't considered for the defensive midfield position

Maria Rivans is a contemporary British artist, known for her mash- up of Surrealism meets Pop-Art aesthetic. Rivans studied 3D design at the University of Brighton. Growing up with her Italian family, hours of her childhood were devoted to drawing and doodling, while she soaked up the televisual culture that would come to form her greatest influence. The artists who have defined Rivans' work include: Max Ernst; Robert Rauschenberg; Richard Hamilton; Sarah Lucas; and Tracey Emin as well as David Bowie; Vivienne Westwood; Alfred Hitchcock; and David Lynch. Rivans' artwork is known for its unique approach to collaging. Intertwining different film and TV genres, Rivans' work reinvents existing film plots and narratives, to spin bizarre and dreamlike tales. Her process begins with her collection of vintage ephemera, which she collates and assembles with an intense attention to detail until the collage takes shape. Her work takes the form of large-scale originals and limited edition prints, and notable series have included: pin-ups; landscapes; film stills; and 3D box collages. Maria works from her studio in Brighton. She exhibits work throughout the UK as well as internationally, including Hong Kong, New York and across Europe. Solo shows include the Saatchi Gallery, London, and Galerie Bhak, Seoul.


Unity have shared Nintendo of America's presentation at their Unite 2014 conference, which talks through the processes and procedures connected to publishing on Wii U through the Nintendo eShop.
The event, which took place in Seattle between 20th – 22nd August, saw the company's Damon Baker discuss a range of topics. Whether that be why developers should consider releasing on Wii U, how their first-party games are driving business momentum, a demographic breakdown, or the support that Nintendo of America provide.
It's an enlightening presentation, and one that will certainly be of interest to aspiring and established developers alike. You can watch it in entirety below, and savour all the insight that it provides!


Wintergarten - restoran ini memiliki spesialisasi masakan lokal.
Stayed 4 nights to attend a trade show at Messe with 4 colleagues. Hotel staff lovely, breakfast really good, service good also. Location not ideal for visiting local restaurants without having to use a taxi - walking distance would have been great, otherwise will stay here again next year.
Didn't like smell cigarette everywhere.
I stayed only for 3 nights staff are nice and helpful. Didn't like as smell cigarette everywhere even my room was no smoking room still could feel in my room. Other things good.
Ok, if you're a heavy sleeper!
Rooms at the front of hotel very noisy due to main road adjacent. Quieter rooms at the rear are charged extra!

These CarboFix supplement added advantages the our bodies cells through doing the healthy and balanced inflammatory response of which fortifies the exact defense mechanism and assists a person to up towards the harmful bacteria supplies. Houghton and his workforce then put the collection of DNA into micro organism to see if any of the bacterial colonies might recreate a protein typically solely created by the mysterious virus, which would cause them to the perpetrator causing the disease. Antibacterial soaps kills each sorts of micro organism. Americans Harvey J. Alter and Charles M. Rice and British-born scientist Michael Houghton had been honoured for their work over a number of many years on an sickness that nonetheless plagues greater than 70 million worldwide and kills over 400,000 annually. The World Health Organization estimates there are over 70 million circumstances of hepatitis worldwide and 400,000 deaths each year. Merck and Volansi beforehand partnered to ship temperature-controlled vaccines and drugs to distant locations over the waters across the Bahamas, with the objective of finally increasing trials to Africa and Latin America. "You have to train at full depth because the top aim is to burn more calories, and excessive intensity train does just that," says Natalie Jill, a San Diego, Calif.-based mostly certified private coach.
Volansi says it's collaborating with the U.S. Volansi says the system requires minimal infrastructure and might ship on the returning flight objects to support order confirmation like temperature trackers and receipts. Cloud-based expertise from AT&T allowed steady tracking and data collection and analysis through the flight. Houghton and his co-employees created a group of DNA fragments from nucleic acids found in the blood of an contaminated chimpanzee. On the assumption that antibodies towards the virus could be present in blood taken from hepatitis patients, the investigators used patient sera to establish cloned viral DNA fragments encoding viral proteins. LONDON — Three scientists have been announced as the winners of the 2020 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine "for the discovery of Hepatitis C virus," the Nobel Committee announced Monday. He known as on the National People's Congress to shut the loopholes when it evaluations China's wildlife safety law. The watchdog group said this revealed major loopholes in China's regulations that needed to be closed if the government is severe about protecting endangered wildlife. Announcing the prize in Stockholm on Monday, the Nobel Committee famous that the trio's work helped explain a major source of blood-borne hepatitis that couldn't be defined by the hepatitis A and B viruses. By the 1960′s, researchers found one other type, hepatitis B, a blood-borne liver infection.
Just one out of one million colonies had been capable of code the protein for the virus, and the researchers were in a position to show that the virus belonged to the Flavivirus household, and it was named hepatitis C. Blood assessments were developed, largely knocking out any likelihood of the virus spreading by blood transmissions, based on Science Magazine. He had been researching yellow fever in 1989 when Houghton's sequencing of the viral genome placed HCV in the identical viral household, and his research shifted to work that resulted on this morning's prize announcement. Conventional methods vary sound fields with several individual sound sources, the waves of which might be superimposed and shifted in opposition to each other. The award is the primary of six prizes being introduced by October 12. The opposite prizes are for excellent work within the fields of physics, chemistry, literature, peace and economics.

It's nearly a week since Science Online London 2010 finished, and there's been plenty of perspectives of the event posted already, neatly summed up by this post on 'Of Schemes and Memes' on Nature Network. I wanted to add my own voice to the crowd, since this was an event dominated by discussions of the dissemination of science, in one way or another – so might as well do some disseminating. So here's my own, rather disjointed, overview of proceedings.
This was a very different conference to those I usually attend, and if it weren't for my participation in Knowledge Blog this year I'd probably have been following coverage from my desk again, rather than being at the British Library. I am very glad I got to go though, Science Online is a much warmer affair than your standard scientific conference. The reception for every talk I attended was much more positive than for your average ISMB talk, or even keynote. Obviously I've not been in previous years where it was a smaller event, but I'm not sure that this atmosphere could be maintained if it grew much larger next year.
Now, I know he was largely preaching to the choir with this one, but surely this is an ideal worth aiming for?
Having listened to David Allen Green's wise words about libel and science writing ("You can incur legal liability in 140 characters" – eep), it's a wonder that anyone writes anything at all on the subject, but the majority of Science Online was taken up with discussions of it. Blogging, journalism and traditional publishing were all covered to varying degrees and much of the conversation was introspecitve and self-critical. Are we doing a good enough job? How can we do better? Engage more? Make scientists seem less monstrous? I'm not sure you'd find any other group of bloggers discussing their craft in quite the same way. Do Guido Fawkes and Michael White sit around worrying whether they give the public the right impression of politicians? I somehow doubt it.
David McCandless showed how to make science engaging and accessible, and many of his visualisation are stunning, though not all of his content is scientifically rigorous. I find it amusing that he was given a stern examination by this particular audience, with a number of flaws being pointed out in his parade of attractive slides.
I think more discussions of the business of doing science online, rather than just talking about it, would have been welcome. My inner geek felt a little deprived by the end of Saturday, and unforunate clashes meant I missed the sessions most likely to have sated it. Though the fact these sessions did exist among all the dynamic bloggers talking about community engagment gives me heart. Maybe they'll survive and grow for future years.
I've written before about the energising effects of a really good conference, Science Online did not let me down in this regard. Finding time for my blog is always going to be problematic, but a few more evenings like this one, attempting to bash out some words, will be most welcome.
Tweets were pulled using the search API, and I dumped the text to a file. Then I filtered out all the hashtags and usernames (along with all instances of "RT"), because otherwise they obfuscate the interesting stuff.
This is a reasonably simple representation of the word cloud, if anyone would like to funky it up a bit, the corpus of text can be downloaded.
My impressions of it? There's a lot of positive words in there, and many of the obvious memes of the conference are represented (although, surprisingly, I don't see any representation for kittens). Also, as always with these things, it can get a little meta, with 'Twitter', 'Tweet', 'hashtag' and so on all featuring prominently (though another surprise is no 'wifi', which almost always makes an appearance in conference word clouds).
The two URLs that are represented are, perhaps unsurprisingly, for the conference program, and the live stream.
I will post more complete impressions from the conference when I have the time to write it up.
EDIT – Ed Yong pointed out on the Flickr page of the image that kittens are there, sandwiched between like and twitter, on the left of the picture.
You could be forgiven for thinking that this meeting was doomed from the outset, heavy snow across the UK making travel very difficult, even for those already in Edinburgh. Those of us in Newcastle just about managed to arrive on time, but there were plenty that didn't. Despite this, a high proportion of posters still made it, and all but one talk was delivered, though admittedly not by the intended speaker in all cases. Indeed, the first day was like an extended and cruel session of Powerpoint karaoke at one point, with people delivering talks having never seen the slides.
What emerged was a healthy picture of a vibrant systems biology community in the UK, although one tinged by an uncertainty lurking in the not too distant future. Talks from the Centres for Integrated Systems Biology (CISB) directors on the first afternoon gave a flavour of the kind of research being done, and more detailed talks over the following day and a half filled in the picture.
I really enjoyed the keynote, from Peter Smith, of the University of Aberdeen. He is certainly doing systems biology, but not in the way most people first think of it. The 'system' he is concerned with is not a cell, an organ, or even a whole organism – it's a whole ecosystem, or sometimes maybe even larger than that. Systems biology on a continental scale. He painted a very interesting picture of how taking biological factors into account in warming models can make a real difference to predictions. There was also an interesting story of using ecological models to predict bioenergy crop yield, and how this can feed into efforts to introduce certain traits into plants, in order to increase their yields in desirable parts of the globe.
The MCISB talk was great, a really good example of how modelling and 'omics technologies can dovetail really nicely in a properly integrated project. They're studying metabolism in yeast, looking at metabolite flux and the reactions that best control it. Flux Balance Analysis, metabolomics, proteomics and 'traditional' bioinformatics all combine nicely to illuminate different parts of the process, with data being deposited in many public repositories along the way.
The talk from the PRESTA project was also very impressive. Using lots of microarrays in interesting ways to investigate the stress response of Arabadopsis . Examining at more than just the changing expression of genes in isolation, but looking for patterns of genes that change together in interesting ways, in opposition, or a subset that react to the change in another subset, etc.
The BBSRC systems biology initiative is coming to an end. It was intended to kickstart large-scale systems biology research in the UK through a number of large grant awards, including the CISBs and the Systems Approach to Biological Research (SABR) projects. It was clear from some of the discussions at the workshop that some people are concerned that the winding up of these big grants, coupled with the looming shadow of considerable cuts, means that there is little future for the posse of systems biologists who have been produced over the last few years. 'Too generalist' was the major complaint, suggesting that systems biologists are jacks of all trades but masters of none. I would disagree. Systems biologists are masters of systems biology (I know this sounds rather obvious, but bear with me). Traditional biologists tend to be scared by maths, and modelling, and don't really know where it fits in with what they do. Mathematicians and computing scientists tend to not know anything about biology. There is a large cohort here that knows a great deal of both. Mathematicians who are biology literate, and biologists who aren't afraid of mathematics and computers. These are skill sets to be prized, not shunned. Systems biology is a discipline in its own right now, and I would be shocked to discover that these researchers do not have a life beyond their Centres.
P.S. I took a poster along, as a part of my role on the Ondex project, it's on SlideShare, and I've embedded it here.

It's ISMB time again, and as colleagues jet off to Stockholm, I can't help but feel that twinge of envy. Lucky then, that the conference organisers have a fantastic attitude towards live- and micro-bloggers, and after the success of last year's efforts (see the FriendFeed room, and the paper), they are positively encouraging more of the same this year. There's a FriendFeed room again, where a new thread will be posted 10 minutes before each talk, and with a number of dedicated FFers present, there's sure to be some fantastic live coverage. I'll be following along.
Frank and Dan have already blogged about this year's BioSysBio conference in Cambridge (23rd-25th March). I just thought I'd add my thoughts to theirs.
I don't get to go to many conferences. The nature of my work doesn't really demand it, but about once a year it does me good to reconnect with some cutting edge science, and get a good idea of developments in the field as a whole.
Before now, ISMB has been the conference of choice, as the largest gathering of bioinformatics types, it certainly was the obvious one. But in recent years it has become a cumbersome beast. Multi-tracked and vast, hard to pin down stuff you want to hear, often disappointing when you do find something. So this year we cast about for something smaller and fresher. We had heard good things about BioSysBio last year, and it certainly looked promising, so we made our decision.
And boy, was it the right decision. Small enough to be single track, there were very few choices to make in terms of what talks to attend (actually there were none, there was only really one parallel session, workshops on the Tuesday afternoon, and I was obliged to be at the ONDEX one, since I was helping out). This meant that instead of skipping between halls, missing bits and pieces of talks, and sometimes not bothering at all, I sat in one place, pretty much for 3 days straight, and listened to everything.
Highlights were the ethics and biosecurity debate, with a fabulously engaging talk from Drew Endy; showcases of the importance of transcription initiation and elongation from Marko Djordjevic and Andre Riberio; an excellent Synthetic Biology talk from a man apparently inspired by the iGEM competition, Philip LoCascio; and a couple of excellent videos of lab robots hard at work (Adam the Robot Scientist, and another in the final paper talk of the conference by T Ben Yehezkel).
I do think that for future events I would create threads on FriendFeed for each talk, and group my thoughts about it there, then tweet the URL of the FriendFeed post – this might make things a little less noisy.
Coming back from a conference feeling exactly how you should feel, refreshed, invigorated and excited to get on with your own work, is a great thing. For this feeling alone I will be returning to BioSysBio next year.
This post is an homage to Ally's own herculean note taking style, since she can't blog her own talk.
Saint has been developed to help modellers get information into their SBML models really quickly. Ally shows a picture of a model describing neuromuscular junctions (standard biomodel). This model contains terms which are descriptions, and the mathematical model. The maths doesn't know anything about the underlying biology. For example, actin is just a label, there is no implicit knowledge contained in that label (ie actin is a protein, invoved in the cytoskeleton etc).
Short intro to SBML: SBML is a standard format, which is widely used. it stores the maths and enables linking to the underlying biology.
Now we can use the MIRIAM standard to annotate the model with the above information.
Annotation and SBO term sit between the model and the biology information – these can be used to retrieve the information from the databases. This has to be done manually currently, this is hard and is often not done exhausively, or even at all.
Saint enables automation of this procedure. It already links to a number of data sources – MIRIAM, UniProt, STRING, SBO, Pathway Commons. Reduces effort on the part of the modeller. Saint is lightweight and easy-to-use. Useful as a first pass annotation tool, or to add annotation to an existing model.
Ally is using a model produced by Carole Proctor in CISBAN as an example run-through of Saint.
Saint does some validation via libsbml on import of an SBML model. The tool then presents a list of species found in the model, these can be hidden if you don't want to retrieve information on them. Zoom into 'Ctelo' for an example – a plus next to the name of the species shows the annotation already available in the SBML model ('known' information). So we can se that Ctelo is a Capped Telomere. You can decide which species you want to annotate, and which datasources you want to retrieve that annotation from.
CDC13 = polypeptide chain, nuclear telomere cap complex, protein binding, single-stranded telomeric DNA binding, telomerase inhibitor activity.
Future work – more data sources, use of species type, better support for non-systematic names, adding software source attribution, incorporation of SBGN (Systems Biology Graphical Notation) for better display.
Personal comments – good job Ally – hope I did it justice!

Dybäcks slott är ett slott i Östra Vemmenhögs socken i Skurups kommun.

Dybäck är Skånes sydligaste herresäte, cirka 9 km söder om Skurup. Den ålderdomliga vita mangården är egentligen en samling av flera byggnader. Äldst är den östra gavelprydda längan, uppförd i slutet av 1400-talet. Huset bredvid uppfördes vid mitten av 1500-talet. De västra delarna av slottet med trapptornet uppfördes under 1600-talet. Gotik, renässans och barock smälter här ihop till ett. Det är beläget på den bördiga jordbruksmarken vid Dybäcksån nära kusten och omgivet av en lummig park. Slottet är inte tillgängligt för allmänheten.

Historia
Godset är känt från 1300-talet. Det ägdes under den danska tiden av företrädare för olika välkända adelsätter, som Marsvin, Munk och Bille. 1684 delades det mellan Jörgen och Christian Bille. 1720 kom det i adelsmannen Bernt Simon Ingelotz ägo. Ägorna var delade fram till 1857, då de sammanfördes av Albrecht Baltzar Wallis. Slottet köptes 1921 av Albin Alwén som 1961 efterträddes av sonen Ebbe. Då denne avled 1993 övertogs godset av sönerna Claes Ebbe, Carl-Otto och Mats Alwén. Från 2007 blev Carl-Otto Alwén ensam ägare till slottet. Slottets västra del började totalrenoveras januari 2010 och Carl-Ottos dotter, Petra Alwén med make, Magnus Hultman, flyttade in under hösten 2010.

Avbildning på Stockholms centralstation
Vid ombyggnaden av Stockholms centralstation 1927 och tillkomsten av den nya Centralhallen utfördes på den östra sidan av vänthallen åtta väggmålningar med olika landskapsmotiv från Sverige. De är skapade av konstnärerna John Ericsson och Natan Johansson. Dybäck är motivet på den åttonde målningen från norr.
