Visitors circulating amongst the Ferraris of Piazza Italia 2014 in Horsham, West Sussex.
SF on a Ferrari signifies the Italian wording 'scuderia Ferrari' which translates as Team Ferrari which was used to indicate the team allegiance when race cars were painted in their national colours. (Ferraris are painted in the traditional Italian Red 'Rossa Corsa')
The Literature Department & The Ohio Center for the Book at the Cleveland Public Library hosted the “Circulate Love: Poetry of Love Poetry Reading” on Valentine’s Day, February 14th , 2012 from 12:00 to 1:00. A selection of poems by Ohio authors were featured.
Recently I went to meet up with the founders of Nomiku, the first immersion circulator designed for the home cook who got its start from a successful Kickstarter campaign and successfully raised $600,000 over its targeted $200,000 from 1,800 backers back in 2012.
The team is now in Hong Kong as they work on getting their production lines going in China to fulfil orders. After many delays, I was told that it should be shipped by July in 2013.
Pictured is the Nomiku founders Lisa Q. Fetterman (CEO, currently pregnant), Abe Fetterman (CTO, Lisa’s husband) and Wipop Bam Suppipat (product design) doing tricks with the spoon after a meal at a Spanish restaurant in Hong Kong.

Lee Southall circulated this poster to announce one of my history walks around Handsworth Park.
On Sunday 21st March, from 1300 starting at the Park Lodge on Hamstead Road, I'm doing a 'History Walk' through Handsworth Park finishing up at Mark Bent's cafe on the lake.
I hope we won't need umbrellas. There will be several complimentary copies of my 'History of the Founding of Handsworth Park' for people joining the walk.

Hallelujah Mountains
•Location Information
oLocation: Pandora
oResidents: Mountain Banshee; Na’vi; Great Leonopteryx (possibly)
•Behind the Scenes:
oFirst Appearance: Avatar
The Hallelujah Mountains (Na’vi name: Ayram alusìng meaning “Floating Mountains”) are floating islands that circulate slowly in the magnetic currents like icebergs at sea, scraping against each other and the towering mesa-like mountains of the region. On Pandora, huge outcroppings of unobtanium rip loose from the surface and float in the magnetic vortices due to the Meissner Effect.
Physical Description
They are overgrown with foliage at the top and straggly beards of vines hang down beneath the mountains like the roots of air-ferns. Their sides are sheer cliffs. Waterfalls, originating on the mesa-like tops, stream down the sides and disperse into spray at the bottoms, like upside-down geysers. The mist then condenses on other floating mountains and flows over the side and disperses, renewing the process. The local peaks and mesas actually project above the level of the craggy undersides of the few floating mountains Jake Sully can see, so it seems obvious that collisions are inevitable.
It is also the place that Norm Spellman wants to visit the most on Pandora—his wish is fulfilled when Grace Augustine decides to move her avatar program operation to the region when she realizes Jake is being manipulated by Quaritch. Most human detection instruments are useless amidst the large magnetic fields. The mountains float like clouds among the fixed mountains and swirling cloud structures. When they are in clear sunlight they cast distinct shadows on the land below.
In Na’vi Culture
The mountains are home to several clans, including Ni’awve and the Tipani. The latter reside in the settlement of Vayaha Village. In 2154 the Omaticaya fled to the mountains, seeking sanctuary at the Tree of Souls. The tree is one of the most sacred sites on Pandora.
The Hallelujah Mountains are also where mountain banshees choose to roost. This location atop the 2,600m high Mons Veritatis makes the final challenge on the path to becoming a Na’vi hunter (known as Iknimaya) even more difficult and dangerous, as the route taken to the top of the mountains is treacherous. One wrong move will send a candidate plummeting to his or her death. The danger of wild mountain banshees is also present. The local Tipani also refer to the entire region around their village as Iknimaya.
Behind the Scenes
The mountains also bear a similar appearance to the Chinese Huang Shan Mountains. James Cameron said that it was the Huang Shan mountains that inspired him to create the Hallelujah Mountains, which would explain the similar appearance. On January 25, 2010 in China, hundreds of locals in ethnic Tujia costumes “officially” renamed the Qiankunzhu mountains after the Hallelujah Mountains as a tribute to Avatar.
Sacred Sites
The Hallelujah Mountains: Fragile Giants
For humans, the Hallelujah Mountains are a stunning vista, a true wonder of the natural world. For the Na’vi, they are so much more.
It’s hard to imagine. And trust us: pictures don’t do it justice.
Whole mountains lifted from the earth like children’s balloons. Billions of tons of rock floating in the air as though hung there deliberately—some the size of boulders, and some miles across. The Hallelujah Mountains are one of the definitive natural wonders of Pandora, objects of surreal delight for every human lucky enough to see them.
As enduring as they are in both fact and imagination, the truth is that the mountains perform a delicate balancing act within the region’s geology and ecology. Most significantly, they represent a cherished, essential part of Na’vi spiritual life. From their role in the iknimaya to the mysteries of Eywa herself, the mountains are a prime sacred site, offering a fascinating glimpse into indigenous belief.
But first, an answer to the question you’re all thinking.
Yes, They Really Float. But How?
Admittedly, it took some digging for RDA geologists to figure it out—literally. The intense magnetic fields covering Pandora—and clustering in this region in particular—were common knowledge during early exploration of the moon, and it was assumed they had something to do with how the mountains stayed in place. But it wasn’t until unobtanium was excavated that a full picture started to come together.
What we know is that, thanks to the superconductive properties of the unobtanium deposits within, each mountain is surrounded by its own magnetic field that effectively keeps the mass in place, as though fenced in. And conforming to the rules of a fence, the mountains can actually shift position within their boundaries—their occasional collisions inspired the Na’vi to nickname them “Thundering Mountains.”
The Eywa Theory
The alternate point of view belongs to the Na’vi. There is nothing unsolved in the Na’vi ontology: everything that exists does so within the system of interconnectedness controlled by Eywa. And by Na’vi accounts, the mountains were lifted as a part of Eywa’s plan. This puts things lightly; really, the Na’vi regard the mountains as one of the greatest symbols of Eywa’s organizing abilities. As we know, it’s extremely unlikely for a mountain to float. Isn’t the fact that these do prove that a higher power made it so?
One natural condition that gives the “sacred plan” idea credence is the interplay between life on the ground and life on the mountains, and how, depending how you look at it, the mountains almost need to be floating in order to sustain this interplay. Which brings us to one interplay in particular, which has risen to mythic levels on Pandora: that of the mainland Na’vi with the mountain banshee.
A Deadly Rite of Passage
A defining characteristic of the Na’vi is the ability to form neural links with some of the animal life of Pandora. And there is no bond more central to clan life—or that more captures the Na’vi imagination—than the one forged with the mountain banshee.
But this bond has to be earned. And that means a dangerous rite of passage called the iknimaya. When a young Omatikaya Na’vi comes of age, he or she may choose to make a long and treacherous solo climb up the vines connecting the floating mountains to the banshee rookeries found in the high peaks. There, the heart of the challenge begins. A banshee never relents to Na’vi bonding advances without resistance, and so the Na’vi only gets one chance; it will end either in free-fall or the banshee leaving its mountain habitat to nest near its rider, who now wears the title Ikran Makto—“Banshee Rider.”
Seeing the Mountains All Over Again
Obviously, the best way to feel the monumental power of the Hallelujah Mountains (and the other ranges of floating mountains on Pandora, such as the one hovering over the Mo’ara Valley) is to see them in person, in the way that the power of the Grand Canyon or the gorges of the Yangtze River can only be experienced when you’re really there. Like the Grand Canyon, the mountains are picturesque, often the first thing people think of when they think of Pandoran landscape. We love to look at the mountains—but to really see them, and all that they signify, you have to put them in perspective. Imagine if the Grand Canyon, in addition to being beautiful, defined how you entered into adulthood, in effect giving you your identity among friends and family. Imagine if the Grand Canyon represented an emblem of a spiritual force guiding every gesture of every day of your life—that its very existence was a spectacular visual proof of that force and its will. Do this, and you will have the briefest glimpse of what the mountains mean to the Na’vi, deeply and personally, and why we must do what we can to understand, respect, and celebrate them. When you consider the wonders of our two explored galaxies, they are literally irreplaceable.

Gov't orders immediate shutdown of chemical plant amid strong protest in NE China
2011-08-14 16:45:34
DALIAN, Aug. 14 (Xinhua) -- Authorities in northeastern Chinese city of Dalian on Sunday ordered a chemical plant be "immediately" shut down amid a large-scale protest demanding the plant's relocation over pollution concerns.
The authorities also pledged to relocate the controversial Fujia Chemical Plant, the municipal committee of the Communist Party and the government said in a statement.
The government action was prompted by a protest involving over 12,000 of the city's residents that has been going on since Sunday morning.
The city's Communist Party of China (CPC) chief Tang Jun and mayor Li Wancai previously tried to appease the crowd by promising to move the plant out, but protesters demanded a clear timetable for relocation. Some of the protesters refused to move until a timetable was established.
The plant is a producer of paraxylene (PX), a carcinogenic petrochemical used to create raw materials for the production of polyester film and fabrics. Calls to relocate the plant mounted this week after large waves whipped up by tropical storm Muifa breached a dike near the plant.
Residents are concerned that a potential flood could damage the plant and cause it to release toxic chemicals. Enditem

The school at Pennant can be traced back to the eighteenth century, when classes were held in the church. A Circulating school of Griffith Jones is recorded as meeting at Llanbadarn Trefeglwys Parish Church.
This school building was built at a cost of £33 in 1829. A National Society annual report refers to a grant of £25 going to a school in Llanbadarn Trefeglwys in 1831, pointing to an Anglican run school. A former pupil of a school at Llanbadarn Trefeglwys was James Hughes [pseud. Iago Trichrug] (1779–1844), Welsh Calvinistic Methodist minister associated with Capel Jewin in Rotherhithe, London.
On November 26th, 1846 Henry Penry visited the area to report on the standard of education in Llanbadarn Trefeglwys. His report was to appear in the notorious Blue Books of 1847.
As with most schools in Wales, the standard of education here was criticised.
"I visited today the parish of Llanbadarn-tref-Eglwys, and examined the school held in the schoolroom belonging to the parish. The building is composed of two rooms standing at right angles, the one to the other. They are in rather a sad state of repair; the roof wants mending, and the inside cleaning. The use of this room is given to the present master, but neither the parish nor any other parties contribute to it. The master is entirely dependent upon the scanty fees he obtains from the few pupils that attend. The master is lame, and unable to work, but he is also very incompetent to keep school. The Incumbent, the Rev. Mr. James, told me they tolerate this state of things because at present they cannot do better. The three or four older children read tolerably, and answered a few simple questions of Scripture history in Welsh, but they knew nothing of what they read or spelt in English. The writing was a dirty scribble, unfit to be seen; and of arithmetic or grammar, which one was learning, they knew nothing. They said 30d. was 1s. 3d. and 60d. 3s. They could not answer one question in the multiplication table."

Gov't orders immediate shutdown of chemical plant amid strong protest in NE China

DALIAN, Aug. 14 (Xinhua) -- Authorities in northeastern Chinese city of Dalian on Sunday ordered a chemical plant be "immediately" shut down amid a large-scale protest demanding the plant's relocation over pollution concerns.
The authorities also pledged to relocate the controversial Fujia Chemical Plant, the municipal committee of the Communist Party and the government said in a statement.
The government action was prompted by a protest involving over 12,000 of the city's residents that has been going on since Sunday morning.
The city's Communist Party of China (CPC) chief Tang Jun and mayor Li Wancai previously tried to appease the crowd by promising to move the plant out, but protesters demanded a clear timetable for relocation. Some of the protesters refused to move until a timetable was established.
The plant is a producer of paraxylene (PX), a carcinogenic petrochemical used to create raw materials for the production of polyester film and fabrics. Calls to relocate the plant mounted this week after large waves whipped up by tropical storm Muifa breached a dike near the plant.
Residents are concerned that a potential flood could damage the plant and cause it to release toxic chemicals. Enditem

powder curing oven:
1.Hot air circulating blower for uniform heat
2.High quality insulation
3.Digital temperature control
4.Custom size is availble
The heating method can be electrical, gas or diesel fired, designed and built specially for Powder & Liquid curing purposes assuring you of low power consumption with uniform temperature throughout the working space in the oven.
Melting & Curing constitutes a highly critical phase of the powder coating process. The curing schedules recommended by the powder or liquid supplier must be strictly followed, if good adhesion & corrosion resistance is to be achieved. While powder melts at approx.100°C, curing requires higher temperatures usually between 180°C to 200°C.
If the curing is inadequate, the quality will be brittle and flake off easily. If the powder coat is exposed to harsh heat its colour may change.
Construction:
Welded or modular construction with high quality cold-rolled board or galvanized board
Hot air circulating blower for uniform heat
Asbestos gasketing, flap sliding doors
Perfect locking arrangement and heat resistant paint(in side)

Britannia has a long standing history with British coinage. Having first appeared on a 1672 Farthing during the reign of Charles II, she subsequently featured on a British coin in one way or another for more than 300 years. In 2008 she was surprisingly dropped from the 50 pence piece despite a Daily Mail campaign to save her. Antony Dufort's modern interpretation of Britannia was introduced in 2015 to Britain's highest denomination coin.
