Media City UK Salford

 

MediaCityUK is a 200-acre (81 ha) mixed-use property development site at Salford Quays on the banks of the Manchester Ship Canal in Salford and Trafford, England. The project is being developed by Peel Media, and its principal tenants are media organisations. The land occupied by the development was part of the Port of Manchester.

 

The BBC signalled its intention to move jobs to Manchester in 2004, and the Salford Quays site was chosen in 2006. The Peel Group was granted planning permission to develop the site in 2007, and construction of the development, with its own energy generation plant and communications network, began the same year. Based in Quay House, the principal tenant will be the BBC, whose move marks a large-scale decentralisation from London. BBC Children's, BBC Radio 5 Live, BBC Research and BBC Sport are among the departments scheduled to relocate to the development. ITV's Granada division plans to move from its Granada Studios to MediaCityUK in 2012. The Studios on Broadway house seven high-definition studios, claimed to be the largest such facility in Europe.

 

MediaCityUK is to be developed in two phases. The 36-acre (15 ha) first phase was completed in 2011, and the second is dependent on its success. The Manchester Metrolink was extended to MediaCityUK with the opening of the MediaCityUK Metrolink station on 20 September 2010,[1] and further extensions are planned. Road access was improved by the construction of Broadway Link Road.

 

Traditional street names are not used in the development. The main thoroughfares are styled blue, white, pink, yellow, orange, purple and green where street furniture and coloured ambient lighting will be colour-coded to match. A stylised map of the site has been devised. Landscape architects, Gillespies regenerated the brownfield site to create public spaces.[28] The focal point is a piazza and landscaped park, which stretches to the ship canal around which the buildings are located. The piazza's two distinct areas, The Green and The Stage are capable of holding events for up to 6500 people.[29] In front of The Studios are the foundations for a free-standing big screen, which will be viewable from the piazza when it has been commissioned.[30]

  

Construction of the BBC Centre at MediaCityUK in February 2010The BBC will occupy three buildings: Bridge House, Dock House, and Quay House, all designed by architects Wilkinson Eyre. With simple forms intended to harmonise with their waterfront settings, the buildings provide 450,000 square feet (42,000 m2) of accommodation.[31]

 

Quay House is the BBC's 135,000-square-foot (12,500 m2) main building from where BBC Breakfast, Match of the Day, BBC Radio Manchester, North West Tonight and BBC Radio 5 Live will be broadcast.[32]

Bridge House will be where Blue Peter, Mastermind, Dragons Den and BBC Bitesize are produced.[32]

Dock House will contain the BBC's Research and Religion and Ethics departments.[32]

Orange is an 11-storey building, designed by architects Sheppard Robson. It is a glazed structure with four types of cladding, including one made of folded aluminium in a diamond pattern. It will house departments from Salford University and on seven floors, staff from ITV Granada.[33][34]

The Studios on Broadway,[35] contain seven high-definition studios, claimed by Peel Media to be the largest such facility in Europe.[36] The largest has an area of 12,500 square feet (1,160 m2), making it one of the biggest in western Europe.[18] Fitting began in 2010 at a cost of £22 million, in time for the BBC's move in summer 2011.[37] The seven studios vary in size; the large studios are on the ground floor, and the smaller studios on the first floor. The larger of two audio studios, sitting on hydraulic jacks to insulate it from noise generated in the surrounding studios, is dedicated to the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra.[38] The studio block contains offices and the glass-fronted, 16-storey Holiday Inn hotel.[39]

The Pie Factory occupies the former Freshbake factory, which after closing in 2006, was converted by Peel Media into a TV, film and commercial production facility. The bakery's facilities were renovated into three sound stages, anxilliary and office space. It opened in 2007 and was the first working studio complex at MediaCityUK.[38][40]

The Greenhouse designed by architects Stephenson Bell, is a refurbished three-storey office block that has been converted into small, flexible office suites for small companies in the media and creative industries.[21]

The Heart and NumberOne are the residential elements of the development, providing 378 apartments in two tower blocks. TheHeart is a 22-storey apartment building on the quayside and NumberOne, another 22-storey building, is next to the studio facilities.[From Wikipedia

 

unicorn cookie pops and bite-size rainbow cookies for a rainbow party:

One of those meals that is perfect for the colder weather months. Photos show the ingredients for a double batch, so for example you'll want half the peppers you see pictured. I serve it with homemade pita bread.

 

Saxon Family Chili

 

1 large onion (about 2 cups chopped)

1 10oz package white or baby bella mushrooms

1 green bell pepper

1 each of your store's selection of hot peppers (to taste)

1 T minced garlic

2 6oz tin tomato paste

2 28oz tin stewed tomatoes

1 28oz tin of kidney beans

2-3 T chili powder

3 whole bay leaves

1/4 tsp ground cumin

A few splashes of hot sauce

1 lb ground beef

1 lb ground turkey, pork or chicken

 

Before starting to cook anything, chop up your onion, bell pepper and mushrooms into bitesize chunks. Mince the hot peppers, discarding stems and seeds as shown in the fourth picture. Make sure you wear gloves if you're sensitive to heat - and don't rub your eyes! Open all the cans and don't drain any of the liquid - it's all good flavor there.

 

Into a large pot (I use an 8 quart stockpot) put a dribble of olive oil and sauté onions until clear and starting to caramelize. Add mushrooms, cook till tender. Add chopped green pepper and hot peppers, stirring for one minute.

 

Add garlic, stewed tomatoes, tomato paste and two tomato paste tins full of water. Add chili powder, bay leaves, cumin and hot sauce. Stir. In a separate pan, brown your meats, drain the fat and add meat to the pot. Stir. It may seem too thick or watery, but don't worry. As it cooks, the color will will darken and the ingredients will blend. The only ingredient you don't put in at this point is the kidney beans. They're delicate and to be added in the last two hours of cooking.

 

Don't go crazy with the spices early on. You're going to want to simmer this for at least 4 hours before taste testing for seasoning. This gives a chance for the flavors to start to blend together. After four hours add the undrained kidney beans. After an hour you can taste test to see if you want it hotter, or if you want more tomato paste, etc. Cook for at least 6 hours in total. Fish out the bay leaves. If you can't find them, just warn strangers to keep an eye on what they put in their mouth.

 

There are probably as many chili recipes as there are cooks, so this is where you experiment to make it your own. Don't panic if you can't get the exact size quantities. Close is good enough. If you don't eat meat, I'm sure your usual substitute would work fine. For variety, sometimes we add a small zucchini, or different beans. I almost always make a double batch -2 pots - when I do chili so there is plenty for the freezer to have on cold winter days.

Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay is a waterside building located on six hectares of waterfront land alongside Marina Bay near the mouth of the Singapore River, purpose-built to be the centre for performing arts for the island nation of Singapore. Taking its name from the nearby Esplanade, it contains a Concert Hall which seats about 1,600 and a Theatre with a capacity of about 2,000 for the performing arts.

 

The library@esplanade is located on the third floor of the building. There are outdoor performing centres, and retail and food space at the Esplanade Mall. There is an outdoor open space on the fourth floor of the building, which is the highest point open to the public.

 

As one of the world’s busiest arts centres, Esplanade offers a staggering range of programmes which caters to all audiences. In addition to Esplanade Presents performances, other offerings by diverse presenters complement the programmes at the centre, ensuring that there is something for everyone.

 

Esplanade’s programmes are broadly organised around key areas – the community and access programmes form the foundation of activities at the centre, collaborations with mainly local arts groups help develop the industry, while leading international productions offer innovative programmes in the major arts genres. These programmes are presented in different festivals and series designed to appeal to the broadest range of audiences.

 

Esplanade's in-house programming team presents over 14 festivals and 20 on-going series throughout the year. As a centre for everyone, the programmes range from PLAYtime! for 2 to 4 year olds, Bitesize - a monthly talk and workshop taster series for a range of Arts topics, to At The Concourse - a non-ticketed music series that runs everyday of the year, as well as Coffee Morning Afternoon Tea - concerts featuring nostalgic English and Chinese golden hits by veteran local artists.

 

After a couple years, they're finally real! Just added a few tweaks to the original LDD file: www.flickr.com/photos/138769992@N07/25809720407/in/datepo...

Being lazy today and re-posting an older shot for TheFlickrLounge, but I quite like it (after initial uncertainty) and it's the last Triangle Thursday so here goes nothing :-)

 

Possibly a bit of a stretch as they're more wedge than triangle shaped, but I still had fun with this one.

Bletchley Park 1940s events, July and September 2019. Both excellent, combined and individually.

Many reenactors, people in 1940s attire, vintage stalls, singers, dancing, vehicles and of course the incredible historical story of Bletchley Park, home of the code breakers.

A place of intrigue, mind crunching information, a truly fascinating place to visit.

Saw this idea on Flickr (Muffin Tin Meals). Since Mondays are busy days with homeschooling and the homeschooling co-op, thought I'd do this idea on Tuesday instead. Thus..."Tuesday's Terrific Tin" or "Tuesday's Tiny Tidbits"...either one works for the girls.

 

They were SO excited. The entire tray was gone by the end of dinner.

 

Top row: green grapes, pistachios, teddy grahams, and carrots.

Middle row: peanuts, dairy-free cheese, swiss cheese, and celery.

Bottom row: dried pineapple, sesame sticks, pickles, and red grapes.

My toddler asked for a new nap blanket for school because 'he's getting to be such a big boy'.

As I was preparing my fabrics, I couldn't get over how much of my stash was built thru flickr. Hence the Village title. Whether it was a fabric swap, a paypal swap, or a shopping tip, thank you to: Joree, Natalie, Audrey, some amazing Jen's (JKG2, Bessie Mae, Ghering Road) Lauren, Vicki, Kit, Danette, Emily and Jonah.
