BBC Quay House
Media City UK Salford
Media City UK 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

Love this shot, and the run up to making it. Myself, Diana, Elmer and Andy ended up creating a series of shots, accidently, right at the end of the shoot...I'll leave one of the others to put up the group shot.
Midnight, misty, surreal meeting of Firemen and Night Photographers on the way out of the park...very strange.
No Photoshop was involved in making this picture, and no animals were harmed. Humans were, mind.

Soto Rawon Recipe (black beef soup)
1500 gr beef for soup/stewing
1 T oil
3 cm galangal (sliced & crushed)
3 cm ginger (sliced & crushed)
1 lemongrass (crushed)
2500 ml water (I used 50:50 homemade stock)

3 cm fresh turmeric (curcuma)
6 shallots
7 cloves of garlic
1 T ground coriander seeds
Gently fry the currypaste in some oil until fragrant.
Add the beef (cut into bitesize cubes).
(I used beef ribs, cut into pieces which took 24 hours (!) to tenderize. I don't think I'll use that again)
Fry/heat a little longer.
At this stage I added a big splash of shaoxing ricewine, just because I can. ;-)
Add the water, preferably warm water.
Add all other ingredients and let simmer until your meat is cooked and soft.
Serve with beansprouts and fried shallots.
Also nice with salted duck eggs (telor asin)
I quite liked it! Not bad at all.

I found this encounter fascinating, it shows how ferocious a predator Hornets can be. This is the final shot in a series that took 5 minutes to capture. Here the hornet flies off with a meal size packet of Roesells Bush Cricket which he flew into the tree tops to consume. The cricket was nearly as big as he was initially, but after a brief struggle it was subdued and the hornet then took 5 minutes cutting it into bite size chunks to carry away. The awesome jaws made short work of the crickets thick armoured skin. The series was shot at Berrygrove woods near Watford, Herts UK, back on 1st September 2010.
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.

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.
good luck gettin a crane or two big enuff to pick this baby up and put it back on an articulated lowboy trailer. better get out the hydraulic jacks and crossties or break it back down to bitesize pieces. located in no-mans land with sharp dropoffs. the price of natural gas will be raised to soak up this fubar. rural southeast ohio. even the roadway has banked turns through this section. thankfully the kingpin snapped off rolling just trailer and load. for sale one tweaked semi and one tweaked articulating trailer. all junk. spensive already. nowhere even close to park to work on it.

I have wanted to make these mini pumpkin pies since I saw them on Bakerella's site earlier this month. Since my daughter is sick for Halloween, we are having an indoor Halloween (i.e. not playing with friends in our cool costume or doing other fun Halloween things). Instead, I decided to bake Halloween type food. After decontaminating the little monster, she helped by cutting out the pumpkin pie crusts with the cookie cutter. These are really good. For the recipe, go here: www.bakerella.com/pumpkin-pie-bites/
