Q: How to write a database query in asp.net mvc3 to get a record? I have a query?
I want to retrieve an table's record's data and want to check it with an field.
I know SQL query for it.
 string data = select Designation from EmployeeTab where EmpName=name;

Here Designation is the field in which some job names are there
EmployeeTab is my table name
EmpName is the name of field and name is a variable in which a session value is there containing an employee name
I want to write this query in asp.net mvc3
can any one tell me what should I write to get value in asp.net mvc3

A: you can do this using ADO.NET Entity framework as follow
using(YourEntityname context=new YourEntityname())
{
   var val = from u in context.EmployeeTab
             where u.EmpName == name
             select u.Designation;
}

A: If you don't have ADO.NET Entity framework
 using (SqlConnection cn = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionString"].ToString()))
            {
                cn.Open();
                string des="";
                SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("select Designation from EmployeeTab where EmpName=name;", cn);
                SqlDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
                while (dr.Read())
                {
                    des = dr["Designation"].ToString()
                }
                dr.Close();
                cn.Close();
            }

A: Extending @Sagar patel 's reply, You can use something like
using(YourEntityname context=new YourEntityname())
{
     var val=context.Users.Where(p=>p.EmpName==name).Select(u=>u.Designation);
}

\section{Introduction}

Following early hypotheses \citep{pm82,c85} suggesting that the
gigahertz-peaked spectrum (GPS) and compact steep spectrum (CSS) could be
young objects, \citet{r96} proposed an evolutionary scheme unifying three
classes of radio-loud AGNs (RLAGNs): symmetric GPS objects -- CSOs (compact
symmetric objects); symmetric CSS objects -- MSOs (medium-sized symmetric objects) and
large symmetric objects (LSOs). In this scheme GPS/CSO sources with linear sizes
less than 1\,kpc\footnote{For consistency with earlier papers in this field,
the following cosmological parameters have been adopted throughout this
paper: $H_0$=100${\rm\,km\,s^{-1}\,Mpc^{-1}}$ and $q_0$=0.5. Throughout this
paper, the spectral index is defined such that $S\propto\nu^{\alpha}$.}
would evolve into CSS/MSOs with subgalactic sizes ($<$20\,kpc) and these in
turn would eventually become LSOs during their lifetimes.
Two pieces of evidence definitely point towards GPS/CSS sources being young objects:
lobe proper motions (up to 0.3c) giving kinematic ages as low as
$\sim$$10^3$~years for CSOs \citep{ocp98,gir03,pol03} and
radiative ages typically $\sim$$10^5$~years for MSOs \citep{mur99}.
Although these AGNs are small-scale objects, in some cases CSO/GPS sources are
associated with much larger radio structures that extend out to many kiloparsecs.
In these cases, it has been suggested that the CSO/GPS stage represents a period of
renewed activity in the life cycle of the AGN \citep[and references
therein]{stan05}.
\citet{rb97} have also proposed a model in which extragalactic radio sources are
intermittent on timescales of $\sim$$10^4$--$10^5$~years.
Following the above scenarios and also an earlier suggestion by \citet{r94}
and \citet{odea97} that there exists a large population of compact,
short-lived objects, \citet{mar46, mks06} concluded that
the evolutionary track proposed by \citet{r96} is only one of many possible tracks.
A lack of stable fuelling from the black hole can inhibit the growth of a
radio source, and consequently it will never reach the LSO stage, at least in a given
phase of its activity.

Observational support for the above ideas has been provided by
\citet{gug05}. They calculated the kinematic ages for a
sample of CSOs with well-identified hotspots. It appears that the kinematic
age distribution drops sharply above $\sim$500 years, suggesting that in many
CSOs activity may cease early. It is, therefore, possible that only some of them
evolve any further.
Our observations have shown that young, fading compact sources do indeed
exist \citep[][hereafter Papers II, III, and IV, respectively]{kmts05, mks06,
kun06}. A double source, 0809+404, described in Paper~IV is our best example
of a very compact -- i.e. very young -- fader. The VLBA multifrequency
observations have shown it to have a diffuse, amorphous structure, devoid
of a dominant core and hotspots. \citet{gir05} have analysed the properties
of a sample of small-size sources and found a very good example of a
kiloparsec-scale fader (1855+37). It is to be noted that re-ignition of
activity in compact radio sources is not ruled out.
In this paper -- the fifth and the last of the series -- VLBA observations
of 10 CSS and CSO sources that are potential candidates for compact faders or objects
with intermittent activity are presented. One of these sources, 1045+352,
is of particular interest not only because it has a puzzling radio
structure, but it also appears to be a broad absorption line (BAL) quasar.

As their name somewhat suggests, BAL quasars have very broad, blue-shifted absorption
lines arising from high-ionization transitions such as C\,IV, Si\,IV, N\,V, etc. (e.g
C\,IV 1549$\AA$). They constitute $\sim$10\% of the optically selected radio-quiet
quasars with the absorption arising from gas outflow at velocities up to $\sim$0.2\,c \citep{hewett03}.
In fact, BAL quasars have been divided into two categories, as 10\% of them also
show absorption troughs in low-ionization lines such as Mg\,II 2800$\AA$.
This group has been designated as LoBAL quasars and the others as HiBAL ones.
The high ionization level and continuous absorption over a wide velocity
range is hard to reconcile with absorption by individual clouds. Rather, they
indicate that BAL regions exist in both BAL and non-BAL quasars and evidence, accumulated
from optically selected BAL quasars, indicates an orientation hypothesis to explain
their nature. It would appear that BAL quasars are normal quasars seen along a particular
line of sight, e.g. a line of sight skimming the edge of the accretion disk
or torus \citep{weymann91, elvis00}. \citet{murray95} have proposed a model in which
the line of sight to a BAL quasar intersects an outflow or wind
that is not entirely radial, e.g. an outflow that initially emerges
perpendicular to the accretion disk and is then accelerated radially.

For quite a long time it was believed that BAL quasars were never
radio-loud. This view was challenged by \citet{becker97}, who discovered the first radio-loud
BAL quasar when using the VLA FIRST survey to select quasar candidates. Five
radio-loud BAL quasars were then identified in NVSS by \citet{broth98}. Since then,
the number of radio-loud BAL\,QSOs has increased considerably \citep{becker00,
menou01},
following identification of new quasar candidates selected from the FIRST survey.
Most of the BAL quasars in the \citet{becker00} sample tended to be compact at radio
frequencies with either a flat or steep radio spectrum. Those with steep spectra could
be related to GPS and CSS sources. A variety of their spectral indices also suggested
a wide range of orientations, contrary to the interpretation favoured from optically
selected quasars. Moreover, \citet{becker00} indicated that the frequency of BAL
quasars in their sample was significantly greater (factor $\sim$2) than
inferred from optically selected samples and that the frequency of BAL
quasars appeared to show a complex dependence on radio loudness.

The radio morphology of BAL quasars is important because it can
indicate inclination in BALs, and therefore yields a direct
test of the orientation model. However, information about the radio
structure of BAL quasars is still very limited. Prior to 2006, only
three BAL quasars, FIRST J101614.3+520916 \citep{gregg00}, PKS 1004+13
\citep{wills99},
and LBQS 1138$-$0126 \citep{broth02} were known to have a
double-lobed FR\,II radio morphology on kiloparsec scales, although this
interpretation was doubtful for PKS 1004+13 \citep{gopal00}.
Recently, the population of FR\,II-BAL quasars has increased to ten
objects (excluding PKS 1004+13) following the discoveries of \citet{gregg06} and
\citet{zhou06}, although some of these still require confirmation.
Their symmetric structures indicate an ``edge-on'' orientation, which in
turn supports an alternative hypothesis described as ``unification by time'',
with BAL quasars characterised as young or recently refuelled quasars
\citep{becker00, gregg00}. There has been only one attempt (at 1.6\,GHz
with the EVN) to image radio
structures of the smallest (and possibly the youngest) BAL quasars
\citep{jiang03} from the \citet{becker00} sample.
This paper presents high frequency VLBA images of another very
compact BAL quasar --- 1045+352, which makes it the BAL quasar with the best
known radio structure to date.

\section{The observations and data reduction}

The five papers of this series are concerned with a sample of 60~candidates
selected from the VLA FIRST catalogue \citep{wbhg97}\footnote{Official website:
http://sundog.stsci.edu} which could be weak CSS sources.
The sample selection criteria have been given in \citet{kun02} (hereafter Paper~I). All
the sources were initially observed with MERLIN at
5\,GHz and the results of these observations led to the selection of several
groups of objects for further study with MERLIN and the VLA (Paper~II), as well
as the VLBA and the EVN (Papers~III and~IV). The last of those groups contains
10~sources that, because of their structures (very faint ``haloes'' or possible
core-jet structures), were not included in the other groups as they were less likely
to be candidates for faders.
However, to complete the investigation of the primary sample, 1.7, 5, and
8.4-GHz VLBA observations of 10~sources listed in Table~\ref{table1}
together with their basic properties,
were carried out on 13 November 2004 in a snapshot mode with
phase-referencing.\footnote{Including this
paper, the results of the observations of 46 sources out of 60 candidates from
the primary sample have been published. The observations of 14 objects failed
for different reasons.} Each target source
scan was interleaved with a scan on a phase reference source
and the total cycle time (target and phase-reference) was
$\sim$9~minutes including telescope drive times, with $\sim$7\,minutes actually
on the target source per cycle. The cycles for a given target-calibrator
pair were grouped and
rotated round the three frequencies, although the source 1059+351 was
only observed at 1.7\,GHz with the VLBA because of its very low flux
density as measured at 5\,GHz by MERLIN (13 mJy).

The whole data reduction process was carried out using standard AIPS
procedures but, in addition to this, corrections for Earth orientation parameter
(EOP) errors introduced by the VLBA correlator also had to be made.
For each target source and at each frequency, the corresponding
phase-reference source was mapped, and the phase errors so determined were
applied to the target sources, which were then mapped using a few cycles of
phase self-calibration and imaging.
For some of the sources a final amplitude self-calibration was also applied.
IMAGR was used to produce the final ``naturally weighted'', total intensity images
shown in Figs.~\ref{1045+352_maps} to~\ref{1627+289_maps}.
Three of the ten sources (1056+316, 1302+356, 1627+289) were not
detected in the 8.4-GHz VLBA observations, and 1425+287 has not been detected in
any VLBA observations.
Flux densities of the principal components of the sources were measured using the
AIPS task JMFIT and are listed in Table~\ref{table3}.

In addition to the observations described above, unpublished 8.4-GHz VLA
observations of five sources -- 1056+316, 1126+293, 1425+287,
1627+289, 1302+356 -- made in A-conf. by Glen Langston (first four objects)
and \citet{pbww92} have been included
(Figs.~\ref{1056+316_maps},~\ref{1126+293_maps},~\ref{1425+287_maps},
~\ref{1627+289_maps}, and \ref{1302+356_maps}, respectively).

It was realised that because of poor $u$-$v$ coverage at the higher
frequencies, some flux density could be missing and the resultant spectral index
maps were not considered to be reliable.
Any calculation of spectral indices from the flux densities quoted
in Table~\ref{table3} should also be treated only as coarse approximations.

For 1045+352, 30-GHz continuum observations using the
Toru\'n 32-m radio telescope and a prototype (two-element receiver)
of the One-Centimeter Receiver Array
\citep[OCRA-p,][]{lowe05} have also been made. The recorded output from the receiver
was the difference
between the signals from two closely-spaced horns effectively separated in azimuth
so that atmospheric variations were mostly cancelled out. The observing technique
was such that the respective two beams were pointed at the source alternately with a
switching cycle of $\sim$50 seconds for a period of $\sim$6 minutes, thus measuring the source
flux density relative to the sky background on either side of the source. The telescope
pointing was determined from azimuth and elevation scans across the point source
Mrk\,421.
The primary flux density calibrator that was used was the planetary nebula NGC\,7027,
which has an effective radio angular size of $\sim$8 arcseconds
\citep{bryce97} and for which
a correction of the flux density scale had to be made. However, as NGC\,7027 was at some
distance from the target source, the point source 1144+402 was used as a secondary flux
density calibrator. Corrections for the effects of the atmosphere were determined from
system temperature measurements at zenith distances of 0$\degr$ and 60$\degr$.

A cross indicates the position of an optical object found using the SDSS/DR5.}
\label{1045+352_maps}
\end{figure*}

\noindent {\bf \object{1045+352}}.
The MERLIN and VLBA maps (Fig.~\ref{1045+352_maps}) show this source to be
extended in both the NE/SW and NW/SE directions. The central compact feature
visible in all the maps is probably a radio core with a steep spectrum.
The VLBA image at
1.7\,GHz shows two symmetric protrusions -- possibly jets -- straddling
the core in a NE/SW direction, the SW emission being weaker than
in the NE. This structure is aligned with the NE/SW emission visible
in the 5-GHz MERLIN image, but the more extended diffuse emission has been
resolved out in the VLBA images.
The 5-GHz VLBA image shows a core and a one-sided jet pointing to the East.
Some compact features in a NE direction are also visible.
The radio structure in the 8.4-GHz VLBA image is similar to that at
5\,GHz: an extended radio core and a jet pointing in an easterly direction.

The observed radio morphology of 1045+352 could indicate a restart
of activity with the NE/SW radio emission being the first phase of
activity, now fading away, and
the extension in the NW/SE direction being a signature of the current
active phase. However, the above is only one of a number of possible
interpretations of the structure of 1045+352 -- see further discussion in
Sect. 4.

According to Sloan Digital Sky Survey/Data Release 5 (SDSS/DR5), 1045+352 is a galaxy at
RA=\,$10^{\rm h}48^{\rm m}34\fs242$, Dec=\,$+34\degr 57\arcmin 24\farcs95$,
which is marked with a cross in the MERLIN map but the spectral observations
carried out by \citet{willott02} have shown 1045+352 to be a quasar with a
redshift of $z=1.604$. It has been also classified as a HiBAL object based
upon the observed very broad C\,IV absorption, and it is a very luminous submillimetre
object with detections at both 850\,$\mu$m and 450\,$\mu$m \citep{willott02}.

The total flux of 1045+352 at 30\,GHz measured by us using OCRA-p is
$S_{30\mathrm{GHz}}$=69 mJy$\pm7$\,mJy,
which gives a steep spectral index $\alpha=-1.01$  between 4.85\,GHz and
30\,GHz.

\label{1049+384_maps}
\end{figure*}

\noindent {\bf \object{1049+384}}.
The 5-GHz MERLIN image (Fig.~\ref{1049+384_maps}) shows it as a triple core-jet structure with the
brightest component resolved into a double structure extended in a NW/SE
direction in the high resolution VLBA observations.
The 1.7-GHz VLBA image shows four radio components \citep[in agreement with
][]{dal02}, whereas the 5-GHz and 8.4-GHz VLBA maps show only three
components. However, the 5-GHz VLBA image published by \citet{or04} shows
all four components, and they suggest that the two western components
and the two eastern ones are two independent radio sources. As
pointed by \citet{or04}, it is difficult to classify the object,
although
the idea that 1049+384 consists of two separate compact, double sources is not
very plausible because of the very small separation, $\sim0.09\arcsec$ (0.4
kpc), between these two potential objects.
Although the spectral index calculations are very uncertain,
it is suggested that one of the eastern components at RA=\,$10^{\rm h}52^{\rm
m}11\fs797$, Dec=\,$+38\degr 11\arcmin 44\farcs027$ is a radio core
\citep[in agreement with][]{or04} from which jets emerge alternately in opposite
directions.

1049+384 is a galaxy with a redshift $z=1.018$ \citep{rw1994}, but
according to \citet{alli88} the optical spectrum of 1049+384 shows intermediate
properties between a galaxy and a quasar. The optical
object was included in SDSS/DR5 (RA=\,$10^{\rm h}52^{\rm
m}11\fs802$, Dec=\,$+38\degr 11\arcmin 44\farcs00$) and is marked in all maps with a
cross.

\noindent {\bf \object{1056+316}}.
The 8.4-GHz VLA image (Fig.~\ref{1056+316_maps}) shows this source to have
a double structure that,
in the 5-GHz MERLIN image, has been resolved into a radio core and probably a hotspot
in a NW radio lobe. Both components are visible in the 1.7-GHz VLBA image,
but neither has been detected in the higher frequency VLBA images.
The two weak features on either side of the NW component  in the 1.7-GHz

The 5-GHz MERLIN map (Fig.~\ref{1059+351_maps}) shows a
bright component that is probably a radio core, on almost opposite sides of
which is emission from compact features (hotspots) within the two radio
lobes. This structure
agrees with the 1.4-GHz VLA  observations presented by
\citet{greg88} and  \citet{mach83}. Their images clearly show an S-shaped
morphology of 1059+351 with two very diffuse components, the brighter
one resolved into a double structure in 5-GHz VLA
observations
\citep{mach98}. One of these two components is the NW hotspot visible in the
5-GHz MERLIN map, and the second is probably a radio core visible in both the 5-GHz
MERLIN and 1.7-GHz VLBA images.

The optical counterpart of 1059+351 was included in SDSS/DR5

The position of the optical
object is marked with a cross in all maps and is well correlated
with the position of the radio core. \citet{mach98} also measured a photometric
redshift for 1059+351, which is $z=0.37$ and which differs from that in SDSS/DR5.

\noindent {\bf \object{1126+293}}.
The VLA 8.4-GHz and MERLIN 5-GHz maps (Fig.~\ref{1126+293_maps}) show three radio components,

The source was not detected in the 5 and 8.4-GHz VLBA observations.

\section{Discussion}
\subsection{1045+352 --- a BAL quasar}

1045+352 is a HiBAL quasar with a very reddened spectrum showing a
C\,IV broad absorption system \citep{willott02}.
Its projected linear size is only 2.1 kpc, which is consistent with
the observation of \citet{becker00}
that, amongst radio loud quasars, broad absorption lines are more commonly
observed in the smallest radio sources.

It is a very luminous submillimetre object, which together with the template
dust spectrum adopted by \citet{willott02}, indicates this source to be a hyperluminous
infrared quasar, with large amounts of dust in its host galaxy.
Although 1045+352 is quite luminous at 151\,MHz \citep[2.88\,Jy,][]{wal96}, which
suggests the
presence of some extended emission and which, indeed, appears to be present in our
MERLIN 5-GHz image, the VLBA maps show the radio structure to be dominated by jets and a core.
The 30-GHz flux density of 1045+352 is also high, as would be expected from the VLBA structure.
Consequently, there could be synchrotron contamination of the submillimetre flux.
As shown by \citet{blun99}, either the first-order or second-order
polynomials can accurately predict the shape
of the radio spectrum. Both models have been applied to the radio data
of 1045+352 taken from the literature and from this paper (Fig.~\ref{plot_maps}), and
show that a non-thermal component could constitute at least $\sim$40$\%$
of the entire 850\,$\mu$m flux (the parabolic fit). The linear fit agrees
with calculations based upon the 1.25\,mm flux measured by \citet{haas06}, who derived
a value of 94$\%$ for the non-thermal component part of the detected 850\,$\mu$m flux.
It has to be noted here that the linear fit should be treated as
an upper limit for the synchrotron emission at submillimetre wavelengths,
since the spectrum may steepen in the interval between 30\,GHz and the SCUBA wavebands.
However, the above can indicate values of infrared
emission and dust mass of 1045+352 lower than estimated \citep{willott02}.
This also appears be consistent with the findings of
\citet{willott03}, who have shown that there is no difference between the
submillimetre luminosities of BAL and non-BAL quasars, which suggest that
a large dust mass is not required for quasars to show BALs.

\label{table2}
\end{table}

The radio luminosity at 1.4\,GHz is high (Table~\ref{table1}), making this
source one of the most radio-luminous BAL quasars, with a value
similar to that of the first known radio-loud BAL\,QSO with an FR\,II
structure, FIRST\,J101614.3+520916 \citep{gregg00}.
Following \citet{stocke92}, a radio-loudness parameter,
$R^{\ast}$, defined as the {\it K}-corrected ratio of the 5-GHz radio flux
to 2500$\AA$ optical flux (Table~\ref{table2}) was calculated.
For this, a global radio spectral index, $\alpha_{radio}=-0.8$ and an optical
spectral index, $\alpha_{opt}=-1.0$, were assumed, and the SDSS
$g'$ magnitude defined by \citet{fuku96} was converted to the
Johnson-Morgan-Cousins {\it B} magnitude using the formula given by
\citet{smith02}. Corrections were also made for intrinsic extinction
(local to the quasar) calculated by \citet{willott02}, who assumed a Milky-Way
extinction curve. Even after correction, $\log(R^{\ast})>1$, which means
that 1045+352 is still radio-loud object.
The angle between the jet axis and the line of sight can be estimated
using the core radio-to-optical luminosity ratio defined by
\citet{wills95} as $\log(R_{V})=\log(L_{core})+0.4M_{V}-13.69$, where
$L_{core}$ is a radio luminosity of the core at 5-GHz rest frequency
(the core flux density at 5\,GHz were taken from the VLBA image; see also
Table~\ref{table3}), and $M_{V}$ is the {\it K}-corrected absolute magnitude
calculated using
transformation equation $V=g'-0.55(g'-r')-0.03$ \citep{smith02}.
From this, a value of $\sim$3.2 has been obtained for 1045+352, implying an
angle in the range $\theta\sim10\degr-30\degr$ for the jet
in the observed asymmetric MERLIN 5-GHz radio morphology, and can explain the
high value of the radio-loudness parameter.
An assumption of $\theta=20\degr$ yields the deprojected linear
size of the source of $\sim6$~kpc.
As shown by \citet{white06}, BAL\,QSOs are
systematically brighter than non-BAL objects, which indicates we are looking
closer to the jet axis in quasars with BALs.
Based upon the small inclination angles of their
BAL quasars, \citet{zhou06} suggest that BAL features can be caused
by polar disk winds. Also, \citet{saikia01}
and \citet{jeyakumar05} found that the radio properties of CSS sources are
consistent with the unified scheme in which the axes of the quasars are observed
close to the line of sight. On the other hand, it has been shown
\citep{saikia01,jeyakumar05} that many CSS objects interact with an asymmetric
medium in the central regions of their host galaxies, and this can cause the observed
asymmetries. It is then likely that, also in the case of the CSS quasar
1045+352, the environmental asymmetries might play an important role.
The jet power can be
estimated from the relationship between the radio luminosity and the jet power
given by \citet[][Eq.(12)]{willott99}.
However, because some of the flux density of the 1045+352 can be
beamed, the calculations have to be treated as an approximation.
Assuming the 151-MHz flux density, which accounts for the extended emission
and the radio emission from the jets, the jet kinetic power is
$Q_{jet}\sim10^{44} {\rm erg~sec^{-1}}$.

\end{table*}

The projected linear size {\it D} of a radio quasar or radio galaxy can be
approximately related to the time, from the triggering of activity,
as the relationship between these variables is only weakly dependent upon
the radio luminosity. Using the model of radio source evolution from
\citet{willott99}, the age of 1045+352 was estimated to be
$\sim 10^{5}$ years \citep[see also][]{willott02, raw04}. For the
calculations we assumed: $\theta=20\degr, \beta=1.5, c_{1}=2.3,
n_{100}=3000\,{\rm e^{-}~m^{-3}}, a_{0}=100\,{\rm kpc}$ \citep[see][for
definitions]{willott99}. Both the MERLIN
and VLBA high frequency images have revealed that two cycles of activity may
have occurred during these $\sim10^{5}$ years. The extended NE/SW emission
is probably the remnant of the first phase of activity, which has been very
recently replaced by a new phase of activity pointing in a NW/SE
direction. It has been shown by \citet{stan05} that the extended emission
observed for small-scale objects can be the remnants of an earlier period of
activity in these sources.
In the case of 1045+352, renewal of activity has been accompanied by a reorientation
of the jet axis.

Several processes can be used to explain a jet reorientation in AGNs.
There are strong observational and theoretical grounds for believing
that accretion disks around black holes may be twisted or warped, and this
can be caused by a number of possible physical processes. In particular, if
there is a misalignment between the axis of rotating black hole and the axis of
its rotating accretion disk, then the Lense-Thirring precession produces a warp
in the disk. This process is called the Bardeen-Peterson effect
\citep{bardeen75}. According to \citet{pringle97}, disk warping can also be induced by
internal instabilities in the accretion disk caused by radiation pressure from
the central source.

A reorientation of the jet axis may also result from a merger with another
black hole.
\citet{merritt02} have shown that a rapid change in jet orientation can be caused
by even a minor merger because of a
spin-flip of the central active black hole arising from the coalescence of
inclined binary black holes. According to \citet{liu04},
the Bardeen-Peterson effect can also cause a realignment of a rotating SMBH
and a misaligned accretion disk, where the timescale of such a realignment
$t<10^{5}$ years. If it is assumed that the typical speed of advance of radio
lobes of young AGNs is $\upsilon\sim$0.3$c$ \citep{ocp98,gir03,pol03}, then
distorted jets of length, $t\upsilon<$10 kpc for some CSS and GPS sources should be
observed, although the character of these disturbances is not known.
\citet{liu04} shows that the interaction/realignment of a
binary and its accretion disk leads to the development of X-shaped sources.
1045+352 is not a typical X-shaped source like 3C\,223.1 or 3C\,403
\citep{dennett02,capetti02}. However, according to \citet{cohen05} the realignment
of a rotating SMBH followed by a repositioning of the
accretion disk and jets is a plausible interpretation for misaligned radio
structures, even if they are not conspicuously X-shaped.

It is likely that in young sources such as 1045+352, the gas has not
yet settled into a regular disk following a merger event and that separate
clouds of gas and dust reaching the very central regions of the
source at different times disturb the stability of the accretion disk and
affect the jet formation. Later, these clouds could cause a renewal of activity.
Numerical simulations of colliding galaxies show that these usually
merge completely after a few encounters in timescales up to $\sim 10^8$
years \citep{barnes96}. According to \citet{schoen00}, multiple encounters between
interacting galaxies can cause interruptions of activity and lead to the many
types of sources that are observed in a restarted phase, such as
double-double radio galaxies. Nevertheless, it is unclear whether such encounters
can cause jet reorientation. On the other hand, the dense medium of a host
galaxy can frustrate the jets, and their collisions with the dense
surrounding medium can cause rapid bends through large angles. In the case
of 1045+352, the VLBA images at the higher frequencies seem to show a jet
emerging in a S/SE direction, but being bent through
$\sim60\degr$ to
a NE direction in the lower resolution 1.7-GHz image. The MERLIN
lower resolution 5-GHz image might indicate that the jet has been bent again
and now emerges from the core in a NW direction.

It is difficult to find a convincing argument in favour of one of the
above-mentioned alternatives or to rule
any of them out based upon the extensive multifrequency data on 1045+352
presented here. However, if it
is assumed that a merger is the most probable cause of the ignition and
restart of activity in radio galaxies,
this could mean that 1045+352 has undergone two merger events in a very
short period of time ($\sim 10^{5}$), which is unlikely. More probable is
that the ignition of activity in
1045+352 has occurred during a merger
event that is, as yet, incomplete and that disturbed, misaligned radio
jets result from the realignment of a
rotating SMBH or intermittent gas injection that interrupts jet formation.

\subsection{Other nine sources}
Three sources from our sample (1126+293, 1407+369, 1627+289) show one- or
two-sided core-jet
structures, indicating that they are in an active phase of their evolution, although
the core-jet structure of 1126+293 is controversial. Our images indicate that the western
components are parts of the jet, which is possibly precessing or being bent
by interactions with the interstellar medium. They could, however, also be hotspots
of a radio lobe. Unfortunately, our high frequency VLBA observations are not sensitive
enough to settle this problem. Three other sources (1056+316, 1132+374, 1425+287) have
visible radio cores and parts of lobes or hotspots, indicating activity. 1132+374 is a
CSO object. In the case of one source,
1059+351, the VLBA observations show only a radio core, although the 5-GHz
MERLIN image of 1059+351 also
shows remnants of the two radio lobes of its ``S'' shaped structure visible
at the VLA resolutions \citep{mach83, mach98}. According to \citet{taylor96} and
\citet{r96},
``S'' symmetry is observed in many compact sources and can be explained by precession of the
central engine. 1059+351 is the largest source in our sample with a linear size
of 45 kpc based upon its largest angular size measured from 1.46-GHz VLA image \citep{mach83}.

The compact 1049+384 and 1302+356 steep spectrum sources appeared to be low-frequency
variables (LFV) at 151\,MHz with very high ($\geq$0.99)
probabilities that their variability is real \citep{minns00}.
According to them, LFV objects are generally more compact than
other CSS sources and tend to
exhibit steeper spectra than typical CSS sources. This may be because
of rapid spectral ageing, which might be expected for frustrated sources, or
it might simply be because the sources are at very high redshifts.

\section{Conclusions}

VLBA, VLA, and MERLIN images of ten compact steep spectrum sources have been
presented. One of these sources, 1045+352, is a very radio-luminous BAL quasar,
whose complex structure suggests restarted activity. This may have
resulted either from a merger event or from the infall of a cloud of gas,
that had cooled in the halo of the galaxy into the core region of the
source. The asymmetric radio jets of 1045+352 and the estimated angle
suggest that some of the emission can be boosted, although the intrinsic
asymmetries cannot be ruled out.
It has also been confirmed that the 850\,$\mu$m flux of 1045+352 can be
severely contaminated by synchrotron emission, which may suggest less than
previously estimated values of infrared emission and dust mass.
Most of the radio-loud BAL quasars detected
to date have very compact radio
structures similar to GPS and CSS sources which are thought to be young.
Therefore, the compact structure and young age of 1045+352 fit well to the
evolutionary interpretation of radio-loud BAL QSOs.

According to the evolutionary model recently proposed by \citet{lipari06}, BAL
quasars are young systems with composite outflows, and they are accompanied by absorption
clouds. The radio-loud systems may be associated with the later stages of evolution,
when jets have removed the clouds responsible
for the generation of BALs. The effect of orientation could play a
secondary role here. The above could explain the rarity of extended radio structures
showing BAL features \citep{gregg06}.

6 great secrets from the Trans-Siberian railway
This probably is the most famous railway in the world, for the last 100 years.
Yes, the Trans-Siberian railway was completed a year before the Russian Empire collapsed during the World War I. The most notable passenger of that time was then Tsar, Nicholas II, who was abdicated and later executed during the Russian Revolution.
It is famous for the original line between Moscow and Vladivostok passing along Lake Baikal, the deepest lake in the world that sits north of the Mongolian border. Those who took this train ride often mention that seeing this beautiful lake from the train was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
But there are lesser known railway routes that travel Siberia. One goes to through Manchuria to Beijing from the lake and another through Mongolia. Passengers of these lines can experience trans-cultural places and scenes from the train.
Enjoy reading the guide and seeing the photos of this 100-year-old railway.

Zuckerberg and Chan aim to tackle all disease by 2100
The couple already committed to donate 99% of their Facebook shares to fund good causes when they had their first baby girl. Now they revealed a bold and ambitious plan to make use of the fund. They are investing three billion dollars to cure, manage or prevent all diseases before the next century.
Even though the amount isn't that significant compared to other causes and researches trying to deal with just certain diseases, such attempt to transform medical solutions is in line with other philanthropists, including Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
Also, there is AI, which is transforming the ways that business, service, operations, and even research and development have been conducted into the next stage. It seems that this century is going to produce a lot of revolutionary changes and transformations.

A city without traffic lights
The city doesn't look modern at all. Rather, it looks either very ancient or futuristic. There aren't any tall buildings or highways. It spreads out with eight main roads from the central square in a very organized fashion, forming an octagonal shape.
One distinctly unique feature of this remote city in Northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region is there are no traffic lights. Is that because there aren't so many cars on the roads, people drive so decently that there is no need for traffic control, or there is no electricity or budget to lit traffic lights?

France becomes first country to ban plastic cups and plates
Plastic disposable tableware. Sounds economical, convenient and hygienic but harmful to the environment, doesn't it? It is so widely used all over the world that eliminating or reducing the use of plastic cups, plates, forks and spoons seems quite challenging.
But France is taking the lead. As the hosting country of the COP21 Climate Change conference in December 2015, it has set the way to reduce greenhouse emissions 40% by 2030 from 1990 levels. The country already banned the use of light plastic bags at supermarket checkouts in July, and now requires all disposable tableware to be made from 50% biologically-sourced materials by January of 2020.
This sounds environmentally friendly to ordinary citizens but economically and practically worrisome to those who produce, distribute and use them.

China's high speed railway exceeds 20,000 km
Just amazing. Look at this map.
High speed railway map in 2016
It took China only less than 10 years to build this 20,000km high speed railway network, which is already longer than the rest of the world's high-speed rail tracks combined. And it is still expanding. Their plan is to build 40,000km network by 2025!
Project network map in 2020
China already has built highways to cover most of the major cities. Its annual car sales exceed over 25million, easily surpassing the U.S. (#2) and Japan (#3) combined.
It is also expanding the air transportation capacity, ordering thousands of passenger airplanes for the next several years.

Jane Goodall's latest mission to save chimpanzees
Educate people to save chimps. That sounds a little odd, doesn't it?
But when a once-forested area is inhabited and farmed without limitation or consideration to the environment, the area becomes uninhabitable for primates that depends their lives on the forest. Then they are divided to small groups that are sustainable enough to live in limited space where they can find food. But when the size of such groups becomes too small, they'll face difficulty to maintain genetic and social diversity of the species. In order to protect the population of wild animals, humans need to learn what good not only for themselves but also for other inhabitants in and around the area.
That's why Jane Goodall, a renowned primatologist and animal right activist, set up a micro-funding program to finance the poor farmers in Tanzania. When they earn more, women and children receive education. When they are educated, they become more conscious of their environment while, interestingly, shrinking their family size. Thus, the more forest could be protected, or at least less forest is destroyed. It's a long way to achieve the goal but a surer way to save chimps.
Enjoy reading and thinking if there is any short cut to do things in a sustainable way.

UNICEF: 50 million children uprooted by crises
Children are so vulnerable. They can be abused, abandoned, kidnapped, trafficked, enslaved, brainwashed or humiliated. And according to the UNICEF's report, there are as many as 50 million children in the world who were displaced or moved from their homeland due to conflicts or violence. Some become refugees and others are seeking asylum but in either case, children are the ones need most attention and support from the world, such as proper nutrition, education and medical services, not to mention the food to eat and place to live in.
As you know, the UNICEF is an agency of the UN, and this report was published right before the 2016 UN Assembly.

Why 'tents of love' are popping up in Chinese colleges
Commencement is a big deal for American parents to celebrate their child's academic achievement and completion of their college life. Those parents make every effort to attend the ceremony to honor their child's accomplishment and wish them the best for their upcoming career.
In China, it is quite common for parents to accompany their child when they start college. Those parents come almost at the same time and many of them come from distant places, hotels around colleges are fully booked when schools start new academic year. Some universities set mats and tents in the gym in order to provide accommodation to such parents who can't find a place to stay.
Some say those children under one-child policy are spoiled having been over-cared by their parents, and their parents. Parent's accompanying a freshman to college whose average age is around 18 too coddling compared to parents' attending a commencement of a graduating student aged over 22?

Making babies without eggs may be possible, say scientists
A bit confusing. But some day in the distant future, a man could have a child of his own, or two men could be the parents of a child. These are not-so-unrealistic possibilities when a man's sperm are tricked to fertilize normal eggs of a man or himself. This means men can have babies without women's eggs.
UK scientists succeeded in producing mice from genuine sperm and fake embryos which were produced from unfertilized embryo. Those mice are healthy and capable of reproducing their offspring. The entire process didn't require a woman's egg.
Is this something beyond what humans should or could do?

The widows who can't return home
While there are philanthropic, or simply just economic, investors in India who offer smartphones and 4G services at incredibly low prices, there are unbelievable customs still being practiced in India. Thrown out widows. Right after the moment their husband dies, they seem to be treated as if they no longer exist or become harmful on others in the family. The affection, dedication and relationship they had built for years turned into the past. They have nowhere to go or live in.
There seem to be numbers of such unfortunate, miserable widows in India, especially in rural areas. Some of them live by themselves under miserable conditions, waiting to finish their lives while others settle in dedicated shared houses for widows in a city south of Delhi where over 20,000 such widows live.

India's richest man offers free 4G to one billion people
It seems that India is becoming a source of new initiatives. The most cost effective alternative solutions have been provided in automobiles, heart and eye surgeries, and tablets and smartphones in order to create and meet the demands of the so-called bottom-of-the-pyramid population. Yes. While the country's GDP as a whole is ranked seventh, the per capita GDP ranks below 140th in the world, which means there a lot of people who can't afford to get the things and services that are enjoyed in other developed countries, including its arch-rival China.
This time, one of the richest persons in the country initiated a break-through Internet service that can be enjoyed by those who haven't gotten any, little or slow connection to the Internet. As the price is too low, none till the end of the year, competitors are left no choice but to slash the prices or upgrade the services.

Turkey removes 24 mayors over PKK links
Can the government, not the court, remove an elected mayor and assign someone else in a democratic nation? That's what happened recently in Turkey and not only just one of the municipal mayors but as many as 28 on the ground of helping or having a link with the terrorists.
The Justice Minister commented that being elected does not grant a right to commit a crime. That doesn't sound unreasonable. But how will the removal and arrests of 28 publicly elected officials be justified?
Both Turkey and the Philippines are essential, democratic allies for the U.S. but their leaders are cracking down their domestic enemies ruthlessly and even lawlessly. No nationwide protest against such purge or crack downs have been made by the public, yet. Does it mean those moves are supported by the citizens?

Will an advert change the way Singaporeans think about education?
In school, what success means varies by student, doesn't it? It could mean grades for some while participation to certain activities may mean more to others. But in Singapore whose school system is said to be one of the best in the world, it simply means grades or academic performance, in short, test scores.
The ministry of education doesn't seem happy by simply enjoying the current education. They are now trying to encourage students and teachers, and more importantly parents, to look and work beyond test scores.

Three common signs of such characteristics have been observed in studies; "Effortful control," "negative affectivity" like fear and frustration, and "extroversion", or confident and social.

Hajj 2016: Pilgrims gather at Mount Arafat for key rite
The Hajj is an annual Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca, in today's Saudi Arabia. It is one of the five pillars of Islam and a mandatory duty for adult Muslims who can physically and financially afford to take this journey. It is in fact one of the world's largest scale displays of religious devotion with over a million and half pilgrims attending. Every year, the events of Hajj take place in a five-day period by the Islamic calendar.
The most significant ritual of this religious event is to step up the 70-meter high Mount Arafat, where the Prophet Muhammad gave his final sermon, and recite prayers and supplications. Before and after this ritual, the pilgrims also walk around the famous Kaaba in Mecca.

Laos US: Obama regrets 'biggest bombing in history'
Laos, officially the Lao People's Democratic Republic, sits in the heart of the Indochinese peninsula, bordered by Myanmar, China, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand. It is a small country with a population just under seven million. Most people work in farms to produce rice mainly for themselves.
So why this tiny country is visited by the president of the U.S.?
During the Vietnam war between 1964 and 1973, Laos was dropped 260 million bombs by the U.S., more than the total amount of bomb used during the World War II. If all the bombs detonated as designed, only the horrific and painful memory remains. However, as much as 30% of the cluster munitions did not. They are called Unexploded Ordnance, or UXO. Now, over half of the provinces of Laos are labeled as contaminated by UXO, meaning anyone, anywhere and at any time, they could detonate. And most likely victims are innocent children or farmers. Those bombs are indiscriminate, just like the US policy and constitution.

How did China save the giant panda?
The status of the giant panda was changed from endangered to vulnerable. That sounds like good news at least for a while. Thanks to the Chinese government's effort for the last few decades, the population of the cute animal increased to a little over 2,000, up from 1,200 in the 1980s.
How did they do that? Did they domesticate all or most of them and put them in nice and comfortable zoos all over the world? No. That wouldn't have the job done because they would have starved to death if there wasn't enough food to eat.
Pandas eat nearly just bamboo, nothing else. So what they did was to reforest bamboo, protected the habitat and took great care of the animal.

What Al Capone can teach India about prohibition
Who loses the most if alcohol production, distribution and consumption are all prohibited? Liquor shops, bars and restaurants, wineries and brewers, or government?
Several states ban any consumption of alcohol in India and some others are considering to follow the suit. Women are supporting the move and so do the Muslims.
You might assume that they drink cold beers because of the heat. But in fact, the vast majority of the alcohol consumption in India is spirits, or hard liquors. Drinking such strong alcohol in quantity often leads to alcoholic, domestic violence and crimes. And make the situation even worse, some of the liquors are homemade and badly-made, and even toxic. And those who make money of such alcohol drinks are gangsters or mobs. Underground business and money, some of which is used to bribe officers and politicians. And no tax revenue form such illegal businesses which are not supposed to exist.

Very interesting, yet arguable changes were observed on the surface of our planet. Over the last 30 years, more land surface created than water cover that appeared on the land surface. It this good news or bad news?
Melting glacier and new dams created new water cover especially in inland area such as Tibetan Plateau, Myanmar and North Korea while water in the Aral Sea in Central Asia and Lake Mead near Las Vegas was lost.

The lonely men of China's 'bachelor village'
Ever since they were born, men have to face this social challenge in China where there are around 15 more boys per every 100 girls. But that's national average. In rural areas especially where only limited, long and harsh transportation is available, there aren't so many girls who want to stay in or come to to marry local men, even with a new house.
That is what this tiny rural village of 1,600 population is facing. There are 112 unmarried men between the age of 30 and 55 in the village. Where are the women? Do they prefer not to get married? It seems that many young women left the village to work and/or get married. Then why don't those men leave the village to do the same?

UK girls becoming more unhappy – study
There are always pros and cons to new media.
Social media surely removes barriers between genders, ages groups, or places. It allows children to get access to any photos or articles that are presented by and for adults. They therefore naturally get in touch with the issues for grownups, such as weight, appearance, relationships and jobs. And they become worried by comparing themselves with those shown in the media. How do I look?
That's what researchers found through the annual survey conducted among 40,000 households across the UK. It found that girls are more worried about how they look than before while the responses from boys showed no significant change.
May be boys are more excited and interested to do things like sports or games rather than fashion or appearance.

Quest for Planet Nine turns up 'extreme objects' on edge of solar system
Another planet in our solar system? As was reported in Vol.1384, existence of the ninth planet has been speculated, or even theorized. While having downgraded beloved then-farthermost-planet Pluto, astronomers have been researching the outer space beyond Neptune, now the farthest planet.
They are hoping to discover this yet to be confirmed planet within a few years. That sounds really exciting because the last discovery of a planet in our solar system was in 1846, namely Neptune, and Pluto was discovered in 1930 (though downgraded to dwarf planet in 2006).

Mother Teresa declared saint by Pope Francis at Vatican ceremony
She dedicated her life to save the poor and those in need for help in India since 1929 until her death in 1997. She was awarded the Novel Peace Prize in 1979 for her extraordinary work and dedication to help people. Now she is a Saint to be recognized as having an exceptional degree of holiness or likeness to God.
Pope Francis seems to want to urge world leaders to stop creating poverty saying, "The crimes of poverty they themselves created," twice in his speech at the ceremony in Vatican. True. Due to the gross negligence, thoughtless or egoistic actions by those who have the power, more people are struggling to survive their lives or escape from the disaster these days, like the refugees from Syria.

Nasa ends year-long Mars simulation on Hawaii
Can you imagine what the mission is like? A full year of complete isolation from outside world with five other previously-unknown people from different places and backgrounds in an experimental tent with limited equipment and supplies without fresh air. There are always the same people around, meaning very little privacy or escape from others' eyes. When going outside, you need to wear an expensive but clumsy and heavy space suit and breathe the air from the tank. And again, for 365 days without a break.

Safety tip from India's tourism minister: Don't wear skirts
What's his job? The person who is in charge of promoting tourism in India was backfired when he commented that women who visit India shouldn't wear skirts for their own safety. For what reasons?
As many of you know, recently, sexual assaults against any women, foreigners or children, have been reported and accused of extensively in India. One of the reasons seems to be historical and traditional view and treatment of women. Another is the fact that there are fewer police officers per citizen in India than most of the countries.

Why you don't give praise in Japan?
It may be true that the Japanese weren't as used to being praised in workplaces as Westerners are. It's partly because they are expected to work as a team, not solo in traditional companies or organizations where most of the employees work until retirement. There is no need to rush or take risks to be promoted fast or awarded often. The return is assured when no errors or disorders are created.
However, things seem to be changing as more companies face fierce competition with others from the world. Also, more professionals are pursuing more challenging or rewarding career opportunities instead of waiting to be given one in the same company. People are now simply pleased and motivated when they are praised, either by their seniors or bosses.

One typical example is prison, where there is very limited interaction or transaction is made with the outside world. Inmates are provided daily necessities such as food and clothes but nothing fancy. They therefore barter things that are in demand such as cigarettes, sweets or preserved foods. You may think cigarettes are the most valued item for exchange as seen in movies but nowadays, to your surprise, ramen noodles are taking the place. They are high in calorie, sodium and fat, which offer immediate and lasting satisfaction where no such junk food is usually served. And according to the researcher, the less satisfying foods in prison, both in quality and quantity due to budge shortage, seem to have boosted the value of such instant food.
Enjoy reading and thinking what you'd want the most besides daily necessities when you're isolated from the outside world.

Avándaro, por fin... 32 años después  es un álbum doble en vivo con una selección de temas de algunos conjuntos musicales que participaron en el Festival de Rock y Ruedas del 1971. Después de varias décadas de considerar extraviados esos materiales  de audio, la disquera Ludell Records, propiedad de Luis de Llano Macedo, quién fuése uno de los organizadores del festival, junto a Javier Tena de Bakita Records y con el aporte en la narrativa de quien fungiése como Coordinador de música del festival, Armando Molina Solís, lanzan al mercado con estreno en el Hard Rock Café de México, el 10 de septiembre de 2003 el producto, a 32 años del magno evento.

Armando Molina sostiene que los audiotapes estuvieron extraviados por décadas, aunque por otra parte el cineasta Alfredo Gurrola las haya usado para el corte final en el 1972 del cortometraje del festival.

En la portada, se aprecia la bandera mexicana con el símbolo de la paz, cosa que en tiempos del festival causó fuertes polémicas entre la clase política mexicana.

UTC+11:30 — ныне неиспользуемый часовой пояс.

Историческое использование
2 ноября 1868 года Новая Зеландия официально ввела стандартное время для всей страны и была первой страной, сделавшей это за 15 лет до США и Канады. Время основывалось на долготе 172° 30' к востоку от Гринвича, которое на 11 часов и 30 минут опережает время по Гринвичу. Этот стандарт был известен как новозеландское среднее время (NZMT). В 1927 году в Новой Зеландии стали использовать переход на летнее время UTC+12:00. Даты и разница во времени менялись несколько раз в течение следующих лет. В 1941 году Новозеландское летнее время было расширено чрезвычайными положениями на весь год. Окончательно в Новой Зеландии часовой пояс был отменен в 1945 году.

Также часовой пояс использовался на острове Норфолк ()

Остров Норфолк стандартизировал свое время в 1901 году на 11 часов и 12 минут до среднего времени по Гринвичу (GMT), тогда мирового стандарта времени. До этого на острове использовалось среднее солнечное время, соответствующее его долготе. В 1951 году, чтобы соответствовать мировому стандарту, часы на острове были переведены на 18 минут до UTC+11:30. Этот часовой пояс действовал до 4 октября 2015 года, когда его отменили из-за проблем сообщения с континентом.

Deciding and agreeing for a home renovation project is just the beginning of the journey that could take months to compete and can cause a lot of inconvenience and stress to you and your family. Following the below mentioned tips and preparation can greatly minimize the stress a great deal.
The first decision is whether you would reside in the same house during renovation or temporarily shift out. If renovation is just for one place like bathroom or kitchen, its possible to remain staying there with a few adjustments. But if the entire house needs a renovation, it could stretch to a few months and its best to shift to any temporary abode like a rented apartment or a hotel.
Get into a frank and direct conversation with your contractor and get a frank estimate of both time and budget. It͛s a smart move to plan for about 10-15% extra of given estimate on both accounts. All items stored during renovation should be neatly and carefully packed in neatly labeled boxed to help you locate and find items easily once you are restoring them. Additionally, top required items should be placed on top. Little preparation will land you with a much smoother and convenient house.

New research from the Intermediary Mortgage Lenders Association (IMLA) has found that 50% of homes in the UK will be rented by the year 2032, as families are continuing to be squeezed out of the property market.
The UK has been a nation of homeowners for decades, and for the first time since the early 1970s, over half of the population are being forced into renting due to ever increasing house prices and mortgage repayments.
The data collected found that the private rented sector has grown by 4% since 2007, whereas the number of owned houses has actually dropped down 4%, alongside social renting. Buy-to-let mortgages have accounted for just 32% of houses in the private rented sector in the last 7 years, with the rest made up of owner rented properties and commercially funded purchases.
The report from the IMLA found a few different reasons behind the movement, including the amount of obstacles in the way of home ownership, such as harder mortgage applications, more students, higher immigration levels and a fall in social housing.
House prices in the UK have been rapidly increasing with record-breaking levels of growth. London is still the most expensive place in the country to live, but house prices in other areas of the country are beginning to catch up. A study by Hometrack found that 48% of the country, not including London, saw an increase in house prices over the month of April 2014.
As a result of these continuously increasing prices, people are really struggling to afford a house and get their foot on the property ladder. In the last 12 years alone, the amount of homeowners between the ages of 16 -24 has dropped to 11% and for those between the ages of 25-34 it has dropped down to 40%.
With the UK population expected to reach 75.3m by 2035, house demand is always on the up, and house supply is continuing to fall. This is causing a high level of competition between house hunters and a lot of stress for first time buyers.
More younger people than ever are facing years of rent ahead of them, while the older generation seem to be renting out of choice. This shows a new trend moving towards other European countries where renting tends to be the norm.
While homeowners and those looking to buy may find this situation frustrating, the outlook for landlords and those looking to invest in buy-to-let is very different. Rental prices in five out of ten areas are now up from March 2013, so the situation is actually very positive for landlords.
The recent "Generation Rent" report from Halifax found that even with schemes such as Help to Buy in place, 36% of those in the age bracket of 20-45 year olds still feel like the reality of them being able to buy a house in the next five years is very slim.
