Now in its third five-year phase, UNDP’s Joint Programme on Local Governance and Service Delivery (JPLG) is one of the longest running joint UN interventions in Somalia. Through civic engagement between local government and the community, it creates local governance systems for planning, budgeting, procurement and other processes; improves service delivery; and offers ways for communities to identify their own priorities for economic and social development - and holds government to account for providing them. As a result, key infrastructure in towns and villages around the country, including markets, schools, clinics and roads, has been significantly upgraded or expanded. The ethos of the JPLG programme is that local people have the best local knowledge and are best placed to decide what’s needed and oversee processes like planning, procurement and construction.
Marky Ramone’s Blitzkrieg Support act Fire Exit.
Glasgow July 24th 2019.
A huge thanks goes out to the band “Fire Exit” who put on a fantastic show at the Garage in Glasgow’s Sauchiehall street tonight. Fire Exit over the years have seen a few changes and after Paul Thompson left, their new guitarist managed to set up this support gig only to leave himself with Paul returning to take up the lead guitar and like they say, the show must go on.
The band supported Marky Ramone's Blitzkrieg and with Marky being a legendary Ramones drummer and huge punk influence for many. This gig was a big deal for the band and why Paul gave me the shout out to shoot this once in a life time, all be it the bands been around 40 years, chance of a lifetime. So much so, Jerry, Fire Exit’s singer who himself was recovering from a nine month wait for knee surgery which couldn’t be kept of the dance floor, as his walking stick could clearly be sing bouncing around in the air as Marky’s band had everyone on the dance floor.
Earlier I was lucky enough, on entering the venue and on the back stairs to have run into Marky heading for his sound check and where he was gracious enough to allow me to shoot his band and a further surprise came later just as I spoke the the guitarist and singer as the band waited to on stage, when Marky himself pulled me aside to take a group photo. Nice one 😉
This excellent gig was energetic from start to finish as the bass player after each songs yelled out. 1.2.3.4 before anyone had time to draw breath as they raced through at least 30 songs before taking a quick encore then back on to do at least 6 more before bowing off to a rapturous applause. Though during the main set, I did see one guy being wrestled out the building by the bouncers for god knows what reason, as everyone remained oblivious to the scuffle and carried on having a great night. Afterwards the fans like me gathered at the front of stage yelling for a free set lists or drum stick. Though the free drum stick was handed to Fire Exits drummer Lawrence along with his drum stool that was used my Marky throughout his bands set. Though I spotted Greg Hetson Blitzkrieg guitarist dropped plectrum by his microphone stand to which the security guard handed it to me as a keepsake to end what was a fantastic night of punk rock nostalgia.
Mass Polio Vaccination Campaign Supported by WHO and UNICEF Kicks Off in Iraq
11 August 2014 – Iraq has launched a polio immunization campaign aiming to protect over four million children under the age of 5 throughout the country against the crippling disease.
The four-day campaign, undertaken by the Ministry of Health with the support of WHO and UNICEF, is part of the national response to the re-emergence of the polio virus earlier this year which ended nearly 14 years of Iraq's polio-free status.
“This campaign comes at a critical time while the country is witnessing a huge internal exodus of children fleeing violence and turmoil,” said Marzio Babille, UNICEF Iraq Representative. “This is a top priority for UNICEF. No child should be missed. No child should be paralysed.”
The campaign aims to reach children in conflict zones, displaced communities and host populations. The on-going violence in the country has precipitated the internal displacement of nearly 1.2 million people since the beginning of the year. Almost 200,000 have been displaced only in the last three days alone. UNICEF estimates half of that number are children.
“As the violence spreads, children are being displaced up to three times with their families, often living in overcrowded conditions where they are at a much higher risk of contracting infectious diseases,” said Dr Syed Jaffar Hussain, WHO Iraq Representative. “WHO is working with the national health authorities and partners to ensure that the health of all vulnerable populations, especially children, is protected against diseases like Polio.”
With two cases of polio in Iraq and a relatively high number of unvaccinated children due to difficulties in accessing families and children, especially in conflict zones and due to social reservations, Iraq has now become vulnerable to a wider outbreak of the crippling and incurable disease. WHO and UNICEF are helping health authorities reach children in 12 governorates, including the three governorates in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq where approximately 250,000 Iraqi children and 125,000 Syrian children have taken refuge.
“Iraq is one of seven countries included in a consolidated polio response plan by WHO and UNICEF that aims to reach 25 million children in the region with repeated doses of the vaccine. Everything possible must be done to reach all children and end polio forever,” said Chris Maher, WHO manager for polio eradication.

Metropolitan Wharf
Warehouse Conversion
Metropolitan Wharf is a significant 6-storey, Grade II Listed, purpose built Victorian riverside warehouse. Built between 1862 and 1898 it sits as one of London’s most impressive collection of wharf buildings located within a context dominated by residential use at ground and upper levels.
In contrast to this context the brief to Hawkins\Brown Architects for the project was to produce modern, yet cost effective studio workspace aimed at start-up businesses and the creative industries. Crowning the building are eight 2,400-3,800 sqft penthouses designed in collaboration with Tom Dixon’s design company, Design Research Studio, with studio offices over the five upper floors to provide accommodation to suit a wide range of businesses.
The overarching concept that the architects developed for the building was to create ‘a village within the contours of the wharf’, providing a wealth of curated facilities to support new businesses and residents alike. It was envisioned that the ground floor would offer concierge lobby facilities, a destination restaurant, local grocers/deli, a newsagent, gallery space and a cafe, to be accessed from Met Walk, a cut that has been made through the building connecting the street to the river.
The Bell Phillips Architects Offices
The fit-out of our new offices in Wapping was carefully undertaken to minimise the impact on the Grade II listed warehouse building.
Free-standing partitions, shelving, kitchen and storage units constructed from naturally-finished plywood give a visual coherence and warmth to the open plan office space that contrasts with the white painted brick, timber and cast iron of the warehouse structure. The plywood is complemented by other natural materials; galvanised cable trays and cork pin-up boards.
The layout of the office emphasises the open, collaborative nature of the practice whilst providing different environments to work in.

The Tobacco Institute of Southern Africa (TISA) has published a leaflet (as part
of a larger mixed media campaign) to inform the South African public about
counterfeit cigarettes - and in the process they have inadvertently provided
counterfeiters with a check list of what to include in their production
techniques to prevent detection.
Just as in other countries, the increasing problem of counterfeit cigarettes
in South Africa is due to the steadily rising amounts of government levied
taxes on tobacco products.
Whilst almost every single form of cigarette advertising is banned in South
Africa, TISA wants you to buy genuine cigarettes so that the government can
build more clinics... (To treat more smoking related diseases?)
