The slogan of the EU’s Year for Development 2015 #EYD2015 is an appeal to join the cause: “Our world, our dignity, our future”. To discuss this critical phase for Europe’s external policy, Euranet Plus, Europe’s largest radio network, in partnership with Polskie Radio (Poland), hosted a live debate in Brussels with development experts and members of the European Parliament.

Downtown Dubai, previously known as Downtown Burj Dubai, is a large-scale mixed-use complex under development in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It is the home of some of the city's most important landmarks including Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall, and Dubai Fountain. It covers an area of 2 square kilometres, and estimated to cost US$20 billion upon completion.
The complex is situated along Sheikh Zayed Road across from Al Wasl locality on the north-west. It is bounded to the south by Business Bay and to the north-east by Financial Centre Road, which separates it from Zabeel 2 and Trade Centre 2. It is connected to the Dubai Metro via the Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall Metro Station. The First Interchange, which is in the last phases of construction, will guarantee the free flow of traffic to and from the area.
Development is divided into 11 projects: Burj Khalifa, Dubai Fountain, Dubai Mall, Burj Park Island, and The Address Downtown Dubai hotel are at the center of the complex. The Old Town and The Old Town Island is mostly low-rise residential buildings, in addition to three hotels and Souq Al Bahar. Emaar Boulevard, The Residences and South Ridge comprise high-rise residential towers. And Emaar Square is a low-rise office complex

In recent decades, developments in software and hardware technologies have created dramatic shifts in design, manufacturing and research. Software technologies have facilitated automated process and new solutions for complex problems. Computation has also become a platform for creativity through generative art and design. New hardware platforms and digital fabrication technologies have similarly transformed manufacturing, offering more efficient production and mass customization. Such advances have helped catalyzed the maker-movement, democratizing design and maker culture. This influx of new capabilities to design, compute and fabricate like never before, has sparked a renewed interest in material performance.
We are now witnessing significant advances in active matter, 3D/4D Printing, materials science, synthetic biology, DNA nanotechnology and soft robotics, which have led to the convergence of software, hardware and material technologies and the growing field of programmable materials.
This conference was about the emerging field of active matter and programmable materials that bridges the worlds of art, science, engineering and design, demonstrating new perspectives for computation, transformation and dynamic material applications.
If over the past few decades we have experienced a software revolution, and more recently, a hardware revolution, this conference aims to discuss the premises, challenges and innovations brought by today’s materials revolution. We can now sense, compute, and actuate with materials alone, just as we could with software and hardware platforms previously. How does this shift influence materials research, and how does it shape the future of design, arts, and industrial applications? What tools and design processes do we need to advance, augment and invent new materials today? What are the key roles that industry, government, academic and public institutions can play in catalyzing the field of programmable materials?
This two-day conference consisted of a range of talks and lively discussion from leading researchers in materials science, art & design, synthetic biology and soft-robotics along with leaders from government, public institutions and industry.

I been working on tentacles and managed to rig them so they can interact with other objects but they seem to have mind of there own and wiggle about but it's a cool effect :)
A broad set of USAID and Government of Peru programs are helping small farmers transition from growing illicit crops, like coca, to alternatives such as cocoa for chocolate or coffee beans. This has raised the incomes and improved living standards of communities that once lived in the shadow of violence and narco-trafficking.
To expand ongoing efforts and improve economic conditions in Peru, USAID used Development Credit Authority loan guarantees to get local capital into the hands of creditworthy but underserved farmers. Meet the people who made this possible.

These exemplars were exhibited by the SQA in Edinburgh in 2007. There are clear similarities in the approach used in Scottish Art departments and the approaches used in the Higher Grade Product Design course. The chair exemplar shows some excellent investigation and development work. Excellent product modelling in evidence too.

The real estate development boom of the last few years left Madison with a glut of unsold homes and condos when it cooled, but there is one kind of new development that is still doing well -- luxury rental housing for students near campus. The new $20-million-plus Grand Central development is mostly rented for the fall semester. It's the most expensive residential development launched in Dane County the last two years. Rents start at $1,195 for a one-bedroom and top out at $3,175 for a four-bedroom with a den. Residents can also reserve the 13th-floor party deck. "Developers have found students are willing to pay those higher rents for apartments with all the amenities," UW facilities planner Gary Brown tells The Capital Times.

These houses are at the top end of what has now been called Canal Street. Work has already been started on the opposite bank of the canal, as evidenced by the Heras fencing along the western bank. Residents will be able to wave at each other across the canal. As can be seen, the caisson dam erected for construction of the new canal bridge, has not yet been removed.
