Scotts Plant ensures reliability of its Scania tippers with long-term repair and maintenance from Keltruck

 

Based in Evesham, Scotts Plant and Haulage supplies muckaway, aggregates, sand and gravel, topsoil and road planings throughout its local area. Reliability is a top priority for the company, and Scotts therefore operates a fleet of 18 tippers 12 of which are Scania, with another four on order this year. All the vehicles are fully maintained by Keltruck at its Droitwich site, with long-term repair and maintenance services using Scania support programmes.

 

“We aim to be the best in our field,” said Scott Witheford, managing director of Scotts Plant and Haulage. “We have chosen Scania trucks as we consider them to be the best – they are reliable, minimising down time, and they are fuel efficient too.”

 

Scotts Plant has chosen a six-year Scania Repair & Maintenance package on all of its vehicles from Keltruck, giving it predictable costs and peace of mind. Scott said, “We don't want to be involved with the repair and maintenance of our trucks in-house, so we have opted to take a package to cover their upkeep for the entire length of time we intend to own them.”

 

Keltruck Droitwich always go the extra mile for us – providing a first-class service for the life of the truck with repairs, maintenance and parts when we need them,” added Scott.

 

The vehicles are a combination of Scania P-Series and G-Series 8x4 tippers with the Scania XT package, with a mix of steel and lightweight alloy. All vehicles have been supplied by Keltruck Account Manager Tony Biddlestone, and Keltruck has been working with Scotts Plant for 20 years.

 

“We enjoy dealing with Keltruck – Tony makes sure we get the right spec trucks and looks after us on the purchasing,” said Scott. “The tippers look good with our livery and the drivers like them. All in all they fit in well with what we want to achieve.”

 

Founded in 2000, Scotts Plant and Haulage supplies muckaway, aggregates, sand and gravel, topsoil and road planings throughout Worcestershire, Warwickshire, Gloucestershire, and Oxfordshire – 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. With access to almost every quarry and landfill in a 30-mile radius of Evesham, Scotts can offer a service for import and export of any material from any site – with competitive prices and unrivalled delivery times.

 

The latest delivery consists of three Scania XT P410 with city safe windows and Boweld bodies, all on six year full R&M contract.

The Fiat 500, commonly known as "Topolino", is an Italian city car produced and manufactured by Fiat from 1936 to 1955.

 

The name "Topolino" translates literally as "little mouse" in Italian, but is also the Italian name for Mickey Mouse.

 

The Topolino was one of the smallest cars in the world at the time of its production. Launched in 1937, three models were produced until 1955, all with only minor mechanical and cosmetic changes. It was equipped with a 569 cc four-cylinder, side-valve, water-cooled engine mounted in front of the front axle, (later an overhead valve motor) and so was a full-scale car rather than a cyclecar. The radiator was located behind the engine which made possible a lowered aerodynamic nose profile at a time when competitors had a flat, nearly vertical grille. The shape of the car's front allowed exceptional forward visibility.

 

Rear suspension initially used quarter-elliptic rear springs, but buyers frequently squeezed four or five people into the nominally two-seater car, and in later models the chassis was extended at the rear to allow for more robust semi-elliptic springs.

 

With horsepower of about 13 bhp, its top speed was about 53 mph (85 km/h), and it could achieve about 39.2 miles per US gallon (6.00 L/100 km; 47.1 mpg-imp). The target price given when the car was planned was 5,000 lire. In the event the price at launch was 9,750 lire, though the decade was one of falling prices in several part of Europe and later in the 1930s the Topolino was sold for about 8,900 lire. Despite being more expensive than first envisioned, the car was competitively priced. Nearly 520,000 were sold.

 

Three models were produced. Model A and B shared the same body, only the engine of model B had 16 hp, vs. 13 hp of Model A. Model A was produced from 1937 to 1948, while B was produced in 1948 and 1949. Model A was offered as a 2-door coupé, 2-door cabriolet and a 2-door van, while Model B also introduced a 3-door estate under the name 500 B Giardinetta ("estate car"). Model C was introduced in 1949 with a restyled body and the same engine as Model B, and was offered in 2-door coupé, 2-door cabriolet, 3-door estate and 2-door van versions. In 1952, Giardinetta was renamed Belvedere ("A turret or other raised structure offering a pleasant view of the surrounding area", referring to its sunroof). Model C was produced until 1955.

 

In 1955 the larger rear-wheel-drive Fiat 600 was launched by Fiat and that would become the design basis for the new Fiat 500, the Nuova 500.

 

The 500A is known to be hot rodded, once the car came to America. It was mostly hot rodded to a dragster, or a street rod.

 

This little FIAT 500 Topolino is certainly the smallest miniland-scale car I have ever built, 7-wide and 17.5 stud long. Nonetheless, the car has rear beam axle suspension and opening engine cover and doors.

I knew that I was destined to have a tail comb and lots of hairdo’s to create and immediately pursued a career in theatre film and television.Having worked and gained over 25+ years in the art of hair/wig dressing and makeup on some of London’s biggest west end shows like, the phantom of the opera, the king and I, and Jesus Christ superstar and TV shows like Coronation street.I then felt that I wanted to go a step further and pursued the world of drag artists and the transgendered world where I knew I could let my wig/hairdressing skills and imagination run wild, I visited many bars and clubs around the UK offering my hair/wig dressing services and experience, and to my amazement I was confronted by drag artists saying “Thank God there are people like you in the world, what would we do without huge hair?” By this time I knew I had something that all drag artists longed for and that was Big Backcombed tresses, so in 1999 I felt the need to reach a much larger target by reaching the medical sector and helping those sadly suffering from hair loss.Since

Here's the launch of Yashica's extremely long-lived Yashica Electro 35 series of rangefinder cameras. (The "Electro" name was later re-used on some unrelated SLR models.)

 

While not especially small, the Electro 35 models offered a good f/1.7 lens and aperture-priority autoexposure in a competitively-priced package.

Looking at this Realtoy BMW M3 which dates probably from around the late 2000's is a sobering reminder of just what little choice we Brits now have when collecting pocket money priced 1/64 diecasts. Sure, there is a never-ending selection from Mattels Matchbox and Hot Wheels brands but anything else which looks half decent is scant in availability. Collectors and children want to see toys which resemble what they see on the roads and not cheap looking generics which resemble nothing in particular.

Costs have risen sharply from the 2000's of course but instead of raising prices slightly to cover this our retailers have opted for the cheapest option with no regard to whether the product will actually sell well! Realtoy were at the forefront of supplying Matchbox beating models at extremely competitive prices, pretty much all our major supermarkets used them and surprise surprise.....they sold by the bucket full!

This BMW M3 perfectly illustrates the types of models they were churning out, deliciously detailed, beautifully finished and absolute stock in its appearance. Maybe one day we will see their return?

The primary economy of Baguio City is its educational centers of which it has in excess of seven colleges and universities as well as a plethora of trade and technical schools. Estimates are that these schools compose in excess of one hundred thousand students.

The secondary source of income for the residents is its character as the commercial hub in the province of Benguet. Many of the agricultural and mining goods produced in Benguet goes to Baguio City for central distribution.

The city is also a major retail center for the Cordilleras and the Ilocos provinces, with shoppers from the provinces coming to the city to take advantage of the diversity of competitively priced commercial products on sale, most of which are only available in Manila. Despite the city's small size, there are numerous shopping centers and malls in the business district catering to the growing commercial activity in Baguio. These are the SM City Baguio mall, Baguio Centermall, Cooyeesan Hotel Plaza, Abanao Square, Maharlika Livelihood Center, and Porta Vaga mall.

The areas of Session Road, Harrison Road, Magsaysay Avenue and Abanao Street comprise the trade center of the city. It is in these areas where commercial and business structures abound. First class movie houses, hotels, restaurants, department stores, and shopping centers are found in this downtown area. Shopping at the famous city market offers one a wide array of locally sourced goods and products, from colorful woven fabrics and strung beads to primitive wood carvings, cut flowers, strawberries and vegetables. (Strawberries and string beans - known as 'Baguio beans' across the Philippines - are shipped to major urban markets.)

Baguio is also home to one of the country's most profitable Philippine Economic Zone Authority areas (PEZA), called the Baguio City Economic Zone (BCEZ), located in the southern part of the city between the Camp John Hay leisure resort and the Philippine Military Academy. Firms located in the BCEZ mostly produce and export knitted clothing, transistors, small components for vehicles, electronics and other computer parts.

Montepulciano what a beautiful city! The first time I've been to Montepulciano everything I had in mind was the song of Hooverphonic ... which also has nothing to do with the Tuscan town. I remember that I had parked my car in the "low" parking: bad idea if you have two strollers! In the end I was crazy tired, I had not understood the town and I was also angry and hungry. Luckily I went back three more times, I was gradually losing the strollers and I began to appreciate the incredible nature of this wonderful town. The medieval urban layout is precisely of the fifteenth century. Montepulciano is built so to speak, around the tip of a hill, and so it can be reached either from above, or from below, but, in any direction, it follows that the streets are narrow and the houses tall ... there is little light in Montepulciano and maybe that's what makes it suitable for a town of vampires ... not everyone knows that the famous scenes of Volterra in New Moon actually were shot in Montepulciano. According to local gossip aesthetics has little to do with the choice ... seems that the municipal authorities of Volterra did not like the idea of the occupation by the film crew, who for the time of the shooting, would have disturbed the regular city traffic. So the producers have turned to Montepulciano, which, even imagining the interesting tourist impact, did not need asking twice. In fact Montepulciano with its narrow streets, many underground, the little light is suitable for vampire stories ... the basements must be said, are mostly used as wineries in Montepulciano because they produce an excellent wine ... not to mention the excellent food ... the only real danger in this beautiful city, is to take a few pounds and spend all your left money in beautiful handmade really beautiful leather shoes and bags that they sell and which have very competitive prices. Another danger is to slip on these streets so steep, one wonders how the bus driver manages the job (of course they have mini-buses). There is also a yearly race, in which the contestants must travel through the city pushing a barrel weighing 80 kg. for about 2 km. and these riders are true athletes usually provided by other disciplines ... I can not imagine myself making such a feat. One of these leather crafter, just to go back to movies, provides large books and leather notebooks at Harry Potter himself :-). In town, the architectural monuments can be visited, and all the buildings are of great value, but the one I like most is the beautiful church of San Biagio designed by Antonio da Sangallo, just outside the city walls. Wonderful! What geometry and balance. The plan is taken from Filippo Brunelleschi's works, and was also used for the original design by Bramante and Michelangelo for St. Peter's Basilica. And of course do not forget the poet Agnolo Poliziano, as the name says, a native of Montepulciano. I left my small contribution to Origami for the people.

Model from great David Mitchell's Mathematical Origami four tetrahedra and an octahedron compound: funky puzzle, easy to assemble, great for didactics (and for yourself) :-)

The car that soldiered on through all manner of hell, and came out king of the hill in the end, whilst by extension keeping the company afloat.

 

During the early 1970's the craze was the supercar, the Lamborghini Countach had shown the world the 'Wedge' and given us a new idea of speed with its 200mph cruising velocity. Across the world, everyone wanted a piece of the new supercar action, with the result of many weird and wonderful retreads. In Britain, it was a mixed bag. At British Leyland, they gave us the Triumph TR7, which leaked, broke and generally failed to deliver in spades, whilst at Lotus, they gave us the Esprit, and that was the exact opposite.

 

Originally, the concept dated back to 1972 when a concept car by Lotus was unveiled, being designed by the world famous ItalDesign, built onto the platform of the previous Lotus Europa. In the following years the design was tinkered and altered by renowned stylish Giorgetto Giugiaro in one of his memorable 'Folded Paper' designs, a nickname for his more angular models such as the DeLorean and the Maserati Merak. At the time the name was initially intended to be named the Lotus Kiwi, but instead chose Esprit to keep with the long running Lotus tradition of naming cars with the letter 'E'.

 

However, unlike the massively powerful supercars that the Esprit was meant to be competing with, the car was designed to embody both power and incredible handling. The engine was a lightweight 2.0L Type-907 4-Cylinder engine, a comparatively small powerplant that produced 160hp. But even so, the car had a top speed of 138mph and a 0-60 of 6.8 seconds, which even today isn't bad and could easily combat the likes of the modern Hot Hatchbacks. This is due largely to the fact that the original Esprit was built out of Fibreglass on a steel backbone chassis.

 

The original car was launched in 1975 at the Paris Motor Show, and at the start was a little lukewarm in its reception. Although it was lauded for its incredible handling and ability to grip just about any surface, the low power engine meant that it didn't take-off as much as it had intended, especially in the desired American market.

 

Fame thankfully was not that far away. At the time of production the James Bond films were looking for a new Bond Car, as it had been nearly 10 years since 007 had been paired with a single iconic motor. Seeing the opportunity for some product placement, Lotus' head of public relations, Don McLaughlin, decided to take matters into his own hands and drive a prototype Lotus with all the Lotus badges taped over to Pinewood Studios near London and park it outside the main office before going across the way to meet a friend. Within a matter of minutes a sizeable crowd had gathered to ogle the sublime mystery car. Eventually he came back, made his way through the crowds, climbed in and drove away without a word being said. It was ambitious, but it worked, and the film crew went out of their way to find out about this car.

 

In the end a Lotus Esprit was featured in the 1977 film 'The Spy Who Loved Me', where it was shipped to Corsica and became the epic motor in the fantastic escape scene between Bond, several henchmen in cars and a pursuing helicopter. During filming however, the chase was originally quite uninteresting as the Lotus' famous grip meant that performing powerslides and drifts were impossible. This led to the Lotus test driver, who had accompanied the car to the film site, taking over from the stunt driver and literally flailing the car and pushing it to its very limits to try and make the chase look more exciting. From that moment on, he took over as stunt driver and can be owed for making the spectacular chase even more spectacular, finishing off with one of the more iconic parts of the movie where the Lotus flew off the end of a jetty and splashed into the sea, turning into a submarine to investigate Karl Stromberg's underwater rig. Although the Esprit's featured in the underwater sequences were a mixture of models and miniatures with alkasalsa tables causing bubbles, Top Gear's Richard Hammond was able to prove that a submarine car could be made out of a technically similar Lotus Excel, although it did require the doors being welded, the tyres being filled with cement, the windows being replaced with perspex and the fitting of external propellers.

 

When the Spy Who Loved Me premièred in 1977, the Lotus Esprit was rocketed to fame for it's intense scenes, and what would have been an unremarkable 70's sports car became one of the most iconic motors of the decade. But sadly the end of the 1970's brought trouble to the Lotus company. An Oil Crisis sent fuel costs rocketing, and the idea of owning gas guzzling supercars became highly undesirable. This was compounded by a global recession which saw the promising American market collapse. Lotus' production fell from 1,200 cars per year to just under 400, and the company was unable to pay for the development of new models, which meant that the 10 year old Elite and Eclat couldn't be replaced. In 1982 the company's founder and famed Racing Driver Colin Chapman died suddenly of a Heart Attack, and his later involvement in the DeLorean scandal, which would have seen him imprisoned for at least 10 years for fraud if he had lived to see the trial, damaged the company's reputation. In 1994 the Lotus F1 team folded and at one point the company was so strapped for cash that they couldn't even fill the invoices. The company was bounced between ownership by General Motors, and then Luxembourg based A.C.B.N Holdings, and finally to Proton of Malaysia. But despite everything, the Lotus Esprit just kept on going, and kept the company alive, thanks largely to constant development.

 

Unlike many car companies struggling in the recession which maintained the continuous model and made only a few cheap alterations such as facelifts, the Esprit was developed time and time again to make a more innovative machine, but maintaining that winning style that had made it so popular in the first place. Changes to the drivetrain, updates in the engine, slight alterations to the styling and a continued competitive price tag made it cheaper than a Ferrari but just as desirable, often being quoted as 'Britain's Ferrari'. Another part of its success was down to its designers too, the fourth generation car being designed by Peter Stevens, who would later coin the McLaren F1, the world's fastest production car until the Bugatti Veyron of 2005. The fifth and final generation car of 1993 however has often been described as the best, combining the continued obsession with unbelievable amounts of grip, steering and handling with a 3.5L Lotus Type 918 Turbo V8, giving the car a top speed of 178mph at a rate of 0-60 in 4.4 seconds, which even today is fantastic and would easily put it in line with modern supercars. In straight lines the Esprit would struggle to keep up in a race, but on the corners, whilst other cars would slide and flail, the Esprit would be glued to the line and easily outdo the likes of the Ferrari 458.

 

Sadly, this performance couldn't bring the Esprit back to its bloom of youth, and the 28 year old design was eventually killed off in 2004 after 10,000 examples were built, being replaced by the Exige. However, plans were considered for a new Esprit to be launched in 2013 after unveiling a concept at the 2010 Paris Motor Show, but this was unfortunately not pursued and development was instead put into the Evora. Today Esprits are quite rare like many sports cars of the time, with later versions from the 1990's and early 2000's being more common than the early S1 and S2 models of the 70's and 80's.

 

But either way, the Esprit proved to the world that Britain could make a competitive, and powerful sports car. Although it wasn't exactly built for straight lines, Britain isn't a country that consists of straight roads, if you're off the motorway you'd be pressed to find a route that didn't wind and curve in every given direction. This is where the Esprit could win and indeed went on to do, often being considered the best handling sports car of all time, and one that defied the financial struggle, the recession, the fuel crisis, the scandal, the multiple ownerships and the failure of the company F1 team!

Here you will find a range of various styles and shades to suit almost any taste. It all started back in 1978 when I took an avid interest in the world of Hairstyling, immediately I became captivated in the high glamour of the showbiz world and the big backcombed bouffant of the various screen sirens like Elizabeth Taylor, Joan Collins, marylin Monroe and many other icons of past and present.

I knew that I was destined to have a tail comb and lots of hairdo’s to create and immediately pursued a career in theatre film and television.Having worked and gained over 25+ years in the art of hair/wig dressing and makeup on some of London’s biggest west end shows like, the phantom of the opera, the king and I, and Jesus Christ superstar and TV shows like Coronation street.I then felt that I wanted to go a step further and pursued the world of drag artists and the transgendered world where I knew I could let my wig/hairdressing skills and imagination run wild, I visited many bars and clubs around the UK offering my hair/wig dressing services and experience, and to my amazement I was confronted by drag artists saying “Thank God there are people like you in the world, what would we do without huge hair?” By this time I knew I had something that all drag artists longed for and that was Big Backcombed tresses, so in 1999 I felt the need to reach a much larger target by reaching the medical sector and helping those sadly suffering from hair loss.Since

g) make stopovers at any points whether within or outside the territory of either Party;

   

h) carry transit traffic through the other Party’s territory; and

   

i) combine traffic on the same aircraft regardless of where such traffic originates;

   

without directional or geographic limitation and without loss of any right to carry traffic otherwise permissible under this Agreement, provided that the transportation is part of a service that serves a point in the homeland of the airline.

   

3. On any segment or segments of the routes above, any airline of a Party may perform international air transportation without any limitation as to change, at any point on the route, in type or number of aircraft operated, provided that in the outbound direction, the transportation beyond such point is a continuation of the transportation from the homeland of the airline and, in the inbound direction, the transportation to the homeland of the airline is a continuation of the transportation from beyond such point.

   

4. Nothing in this Article shall be deemed to confer on the airline or airlines of one Party the rights to take on board, in the territory of the other Party, passengers, baggage, cargo, or mail carried for compensation and destined for another point in the territory of that other Party.

   

Charter Operations

   

5. Each Party shall authorize passenger, cargo, and combination charter operations without limitation on the number of flights. Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the rights of a Party to require airlines of both Parties to adhere to requirements relating to the protection of passenger funds and passenger cancellation and refund rights.

   

Article 3

c) that airline has failed to comply with the laws and regulations referred to in Article 5 (Application of Laws) of this Agreement.

   

2. Unless immediate action is essential to prevent further noncompliance with subparagraph 1c of this Article, the rights established by this Article shall be exercised only after consultation with the other Party.

   

3. This Article does not limit the rights of either Party to withhold, revoke, suspend, limit or impose conditions on the operating authorization or technical permission of an airline or airlines of the other Party in accordance with the provisions of Article 6 (Safety) or Article 7 (Aviation Security) of this Agreement.

   

Article 5

Each Party may, however, refuse to recognize as valid for the purpose of flight above its own territory, certificates of competency and licenses granted to or validated for its own nationals by the other Party.

   

2. Either Party may request consultations concerning the safety standards maintained by the other Party relating to aeronautical facilities, aircrews, aircraft, and operation of airlines of that other Party

   

3. If, following such consultations, one Party finds that the other Party does not effectively maintain and administer the safety standards and requirements in the areas referred to in paragraph 2 of this Article that at least equal the minimum standards that may be established pursuant to the Convention, the other Party shall be notified of such findings and the steps considered necessary to conform with these minimum standards, and the other Party shall take appropriate corrective action within a reasonable time period.

Article 7

 

Aviation Security

   

1. The Parties affirm that their obligation to each other to protect the security of civil aviation against acts of unlawful interference forms an integral part of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of their rights and obligations under international law, the Parties shall in particular act in conformity with the provisions of the Convention on Offenses and Certain Other Acts Committed on Board Aircraft, done at Tokyo September 14, 1963, the Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Seizure of Aircraft, done at The Hague December 16, 1970, the Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Acts against the Safety of Civil Aviation, done at Montreal September 23, 1971, the Protocol for the Suppression of Unlawful Acts of Violence at Airports Serving International Civil Aviation, Supplementary to the Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Acts against the Safety of Civil Aviation, done at Montreal February 24, 1988, and the Convention on the Marking of Plastic Explosives for the Purpose of Detection, done at Montreal March 1, 1991, as well as with any other convention relating to the security of civil aviation that is binding on both Parties.

   

2. The Parties shall provide upon request all necessary assistance to each other to prevent acts of unlawful seizure of civil aircraft and other unlawful acts against the safety of such aircraft, of their passengers and crew, and of airports and air navigation facilities, and to address any other threat to the security of civil air navigation.

   

3. The Parties shall, in their mutual relations, act in conformity with the aviation security standards and appropriate recommended practices established by the International Civil Aviation Organization and designated as Annexes to the Convention; they shall require that operators of aircraft of their registry, operators of aircraft that have their principal place of business or permanent residence in their territory, and the operators of airports in their territory act in conformity with such aviation security provisions.

   

4. Each Party agrees that such operators of aircraft may be required to observe the security provisions required by the other Party for entry into, for departure from, and while within the territory of that other Party and to take adequate measures to protect aircraft and to inspect passengers, crew, and their baggage and carry-on items, as well as cargo and aircraft stores, prior to and during boarding or loading. Each Party shall also give positive consideration to any request from the other Party for special security measures to meet a particular threat.

   

5. When an incident or threat of an incident of unlawful seizure of aircraft or other unlawful acts against the safety of passengers, crew, aircraft, airports or air navigation facilities occurs, the Parties shall assist each other by facilitating communications and other appropriate measures intended to terminate rapidly and safely such incident or threat.

   

6. Each Party shall allow, within sixty (60) days following notice, the appropriate authorities of the other Party to conduct an assessment in the territory of the first Party of the security measures being carried out by aircraft operators in respect of flights between the territories of the Parties and those flights of aircraft operators with a registry in the territory of the Party conducting the assessment. The administrative arrangements for the conduct of such assessments shall be agreed between the appropriate authorities of the Parties and implemented without delay so as to ensure that assessments will be conducted expeditiously. The assessment reports will be held in confidence by the Parties.

   

7. With full regard for each Party’s responsibility for ensuring effective implementation of the Standards and appropriate Recommended Practices set forth in Annex 17 to the Convention, and as recognized in paragraph 3 of this Article, the Parties shall have the right, and shall provide all necessary assistance to each other, for their appropriate authorities to conduct technical airport security visits in the territory of the other Party for the purpose of verifying that the security measures required under Annex 17 to the Convention are effectively being carried out. The appropriate authorities of the Parties shall coordinate such visits, providing each other at least sixty (60) days written notice, to identify the airports to be visited, the dates of the visits, and the scope of each visit. The reports from technical airport security visits will be held in confidence by the Parties.

   

8. When a Party has reasonable grounds to believe that the other Party has departed from the aviation security provisions of this Article, the aeronautical authorities of that Party may request immediate consultations with the aeronautical authorities of the other Party. Failure to reach a satisfactory agreement within 15 days from the date of such request shall constitute grounds to withhold, revoke, suspend, limit, or impose conditions on the operating authorization and technical permissions of an airline or airlines of that Party. When required by an emergency, a Party may take interim action prior to the expiry of 15 days.

   

Article 8

Each airline shall have the right to sell such transportation, and any person shall be free to purchase such transportation, in the currency of that territory or in freely convertible currencies.

   

Airline Representatives

   

4. The airlines of each Party shall be entitled, on the basis of reciprocity, and in accordance with the laws and regulations of the other Party relating to entry, residence, and employment, to bring in and maintain in the territory of the other Party managerial, sales, technical, operational, and other specialist staff required for the provision of air transportation.

   

5. These staff requirements may, at the option of the airline or airlines of one Party, be satisfied by its own personnel or by using the services of any other organization, company or airline operating in the territory of the other Party and authorized to perform such services for other airlines.

   

6. The representatives and staff shall be subject to the laws and regulations in force of the other Party, and consistent with such laws and regulations:

Ground-handling

   

7. Each airline shall have the right to perform its own ground-handling in the territory of the other Party ("self-handling") or, at the airline’s option, select among competing agents for such services in whole or in part. The rights shall be subject only to physical constraints resulting from considerations of physical limitations of facilities and airport safety. Where such considerations preclude self-handling, ground services shall be available on a non-discriminatory basis to all airlines; charges shall be based on the costs of services provided; and such services shall be comparable to the kind and quality of services as if self-handling were possible.

   

Currency Conversion and Remittance of Earnings

   

8. Each airline shall have the right to convert and remit to its country and, except where inconsistent with generally applicable law or regulation, any other country or countries of its choice, on demand, local revenues in excess of sums locally disbursed. Conversion and remittance shall be permitted promptly without restrictions or taxation in respect thereof at the rate of exchange applicable to current transactions and remittance on the date the carrier makes the initial application for remittance.

   

9. The conversion and remittance of such revenues shall be permitted in conformity with the applicable laws and regulations, provided that such laws and regulations do not diminish the rights granted by this Agreement and such transactions are not subject to any administrative or exchange charges except those normally made by banks for the carrying out of such conversion and remittance.

   

10. The provisions of this Article do not exempt the airlines of either Party from the duties, taxes and contributions to which they are subject, provided that such duties, taxes and contributions do not diminish the rights granted by this Agreement.

   

11. The airlines of each Party shall be permitted to pay for local expenses, including purchases of fuel, in the territory of the other Party in local currency. At their discretion, the airlines of each Party may pay for such expenses in the territory of the other Party in freely convertible currencies according to local currency regulation.

   

Code Sharing

   

12. In operating or holding out the authorized services under this Agreement, any airline of one Party may enter into cooperative marketing arrangements such as blocked-space, code-sharing, or leasing arrangements, with:

   

a) an airline or airlines of either Party;

   

b) an airline or airlines of a third country; and

   

c) a surface transportation provider of any country;

   

provided that all participants in such arrangements (i) hold the appropriate authority and (ii) meet the requirements normally applied to such arrangements.

   

Intermodal Services

   

13. Airlines and indirect providers of cargo transportation of both Parties shall be permitted, without restriction, to employ in connection with international air transportation any surface transportation for cargo to or from any points in the territories of the Parties or in third countries, including to and from all airports with customs facilities and to transport cargo in bond under applicable laws and regulations. Such cargo, whether moving by surface or by air, shall have access to airport customs processing and facilities. Airlines may elect to perform their own surface transportation or to provide it through arrangements with other surface carriers, including surface transportation operated by other airlines and indirect providers of cargo air transportation. Such intermodal cargo services may be offered at a single, through price for the air and surface transportation combined, provided that shippers are not misled as to the facts concerning such transportation.

3. Neither Party shall impose on the other Party's airlines a first-refusal requirement, uplift ratio, no-objection fee, or any other requirement with respect to capacity, frequency, or traffic that would be inconsistent with the purposes of this Agreement.

   

4. Neither Party shall require the filing of schedules, programs for charter flights, or operational plans by airlines of the other Party for approval, except as may be required on a non-discriminatory basis to enforce the uniform conditions foreseen by paragraph 2 of this Article or as may be specifically authorized in this Agreement.

Done at Brasilia , this 19th day of March, 2011, in two originals, in the Portuguese and English languages, both texts being equally authentic.

  

The Jaguar E-Type or the Jaguar XK-E for the North American market is a British sports car, which was manufactured by Jaguar Cars Ltd between 1961 and 1975. Its combination of beauty, high performance, and competitive pricing established the marque as an icon of 1960s motoring. At a time when most cars had drum brakes, live rear axles, and mediocre performance, the E-Type sprang on the scene with 150 mph and a sub-7 second 0-60 time, monocoque construction, disc brakes, rack and pinion steering, independent front and rear suspension, and unrivaled looks.[3] In fact, the E-Type was based on Jaguar's own famed racer, the Type D, which had won the world's most prestigious sports-car race three consecutive years (1955-1957)[4] and, as such, it was the first production vehicle not to use a separate body bolted onto a chassis, instead employing the racing design of a body tub attached to a tubular framework, with the engine bolted directly to the framework.[5]

 

In March 2008, the Jaguar E-Type ranked first in a The Daily Telegraph online list of the world's "100 most beautiful cars" of all time.[6]

 

In 2004, Sports Car International magazine placed the E-Type at number one on their list of Top Sports Cars of the 1960s

Da Fen Village

Is there anywhere on earth quite like Da Fen?. This is a Shenzhen absolute must.

 

In 1988, a Hong Kong businessman named Wong Kong, who had a business making and selling reproductions of classical and other oil paintings, decided that, with rising costs, there was no future in Hong Kong and set up shop in Da Fen Village, just outside the zone in Buji Town. His sole reason for choosing Da Fen was because the rents were cheap.

 

This set off an explosion of interest in commercial art. China has an extensive network of Art Colleges, but not necessarily the jobs to keep the graduates occupied. There are also many talented painters working in the rice paddies who are keen to have the opportunity to earn more money than they can in agriculture while at the same time practising their craft. The “People’s Daily recently reported that a competent artist in Da Fen can earn US$10,000 per annum, ten times what he can earn in the fields.

 

Thus Da Fen Oil Painting Village was born. It was originally a Hakka “wei” or walled village. You can still make out the square shape of the original village but, with the exception of two ancestral temples, the old buildings have been replaced by modern four or five storey buildings. Australians who are used to the idea of big statues commemorating local industries, the “Big Banana”, the “Big Merino” etc, will be intrigued to know that there is a “Big Paint Brush and Easel”, a bronze sculpture at the entrance to the village.

 

Basically you can get any painting you like copied here, even from a photo. Prices vary but you probably shouldn’t pay much more than Y250 for best quality. Be sure you ask for best quality, prices vary with quality. We have had very good service from David Wu at Noah on the first floor of the MOI Art Trading Plaza, just to your right as you get off the bus at Da Fen Village bus stop. Noah specialises in faux antique baroque furniture for the French trade. The French aren’t as picky as the English about art copies. But his people can copy just about anything. Ask to see his “factory” on the top floor of the building. You will be fascinated by the painters with large piles of canvasses, some pre-antiqued, in front of them and a palette in their hand. We were told that one of them had done 3000 copies of a particular Raphaelite cherub and that he was “pretty good at it by now”. Incidentally if you are inclined to turn your nose up at the idea of production line art, we suggest you read Vasari’s “Lives” where he makes it quite clear that the studios of Florence and Venice were no different when it came to earning their daily bread.

Apart from the big operators like Noah, there are hundreds of small art shops. Mona Lisa smiles at you from every corner. George Bush in a cowboy pose and President Hu Jintao are also popular subjects and we have been very tempted by a five foot high portrait of the Queen. You can also buy art supplies at very competitive prices

 

And if you think that getting paintings copied is altogether too naff, some of China’s best painters also maintain studios at Da Fen. Good places to look are the first and second floors of MOI, and also in the Da Fen Louvre, just at the bus stop. But don’t expect to pick up any bargains here. You won’t see much change out of Y10,000. We love the works of a Tibetan artist who goes by the Chinese name of Chen Changchang. His studio is on the first floor of a new building across the main road just to the north of the old village. When you go into his studio you are first greeted by his bread and butter work which is very competent interpretations in oils of Tang Dynasty ink paintings. But then you go to the back area and you see his real love. Portraits in a modern version of the traditional Chinese style, black and brown predominating, angles, a mixture of slight perspective and traditional flat scenes, blank faces. We loved a picture of a man standing amongst rubble holding up a broken concrete pillar Samson style. We had previously seen this picture in an exhibition of art in aid of the Sichuan earthquake. He mentioned prices of between Y10,000 and Y15,000 but it was clear that he’d be prepared to talk.

You can get your framing done here in too many places for it to be sensible for us to single out any one. We’ve been doing framing for ever. We know what it’s all about. But none of that prepared us for what we experienced in Dafen.

We wandered into one of the small framing shops. The small of paint, the sounds of sawing, dust on everything. There are always small kids in Dafen shops and two of them were in a corner throwing things at each other. A man in a whitish singlet emerged from a room. We showed him the pirated copies of some of our favourite artist’s works, fresh from the copy room of a factory nearby. He grunted, pulled out a calculator, and did those Masonic calculations which framers are famous for. Then he showed us the result which was 6467. Six thousand four hundred and forty seven? No. Sixty four Yuan. Seemed a reasonable number. We asked how long it would take. He held up two fingers. Hey! We know framing. Be clearer. Two weeks or two months? No. He was sorry. It was lunchtime and some of his workers were eating. Come back in two hours and it’d be ready. And it was!

We should also mention the Dafen Art gallery. This is a stunning new modern building which has recently been opened on the outskirts of the town area proper. It is a brilliant example of the style of gallery building which is all angles, galleries on different levels all bathed in bright natural light which streams in through skylights and high clerestory windows. The gallery doesn’t appear to have a permanent display as yet and at present it is given over to exhibitions of Dafen artists and art shops. The one current when we first visited was an exhibition of paintings of Eastern Shenzhen with emphasis on the Dafen Peninsula.

Da Fen is one of the many places in Shenzhen which is constantly being remodelled and improved. Unfortunately the trend in the 1980’s to put up ugly six or eight story blocks on community land took hold here but new pedestrian areas and redesigned facades provide areas for coffee shops and eating places where you can stop for refreshment in between examining the amazing range of works of art.

But when you’ve finished doing that, take a small look around what remains of the old village. It’s divided into two parts. The “old” wei is a square area with a chequerboard arrangement of streets and the “new” wei can be seen around it in a roughly oval shaped area. To the north of the town is a square with the Ancestral Temples of the Hong and Wu clans skirting it. Unfortunately they are firmly padlocked.

There is a quite good bronze bust of Leonardo Da Vinci in the square. There is a particularly Shenzhen subtext to this. The first two characters of Da Vinci’s Chinese name, Da Fen Qi are, either by accident or design, the characters of Dafen’s name.
