The Rotor programme was developed to advance the wartime radar technology in detecting and locating fast-flying jets. It was approved by the Air Council in June 1950. The first stage of the programme, Rotor 1, was to technically restore existing Chain Home, centrimetric early warning, Chain Home Extra Low and Ground Controlled Interception Stations and put them under the control of RAF Fighter Command. There were three main components to the Rotor Stations: the technical site, including the radars, operation blocks and other installations; the domestic site, where personnel were accommodated; and the stand-by set house, a reserve power supply. The technical site for RAF Neatishead Rotor Station was located at TG 346 184. Crew were accommodated at RAF Coltishall and the stand-by set house was located at TG 342 200.
The two main constructions at Rotor stations were the operations block and guardhouse. Operations blocks were the largest structures built at Rotor stations. They were constructed of reinforced concrete and designed to withstand 2,000lb bombs. The outer walls and roof of the Rotor operations blocks were 9ft 10in thick and the internal walls between 5.9in to 1ft 11in metres wide. The exterior was coated with an asphalt damp course and surrounded by a 5.9in brick wall. The roof was usually flush with the ground surface and up to 14 ft 2in of earth was mounded on top. The operations blocks, identified by a 'R' prefix, contained technical equipment, domestic facilities, workshops and a plant for air conditioning and gas filtration, all within a single complex.
Four of the blocks (R1-R4) were underground constructions designed for the more vulnerable sites on the east and south-east coasts. Others were semi-submerged (R6) or above ground (R5, R7-R11) heavily protected structures built to withstand 1,000lb bombs. The guardhouses were designed to resemble ''bungalows''. They were single-storey buildings capped with a flat, concrete roof, above which a pitched roof contained water tanks. They were generally constructed of brick, but were built to blend in with the local architectural style. The guard rooms also contained an armoury, store, rest room and lavatories. Those associated with underground operations blocks featured a projecting rear annex that housed a stairwell leading down to an access tunnel.
Aerial photography from 1965 shows the R3 operations bunker at the site, as well as a Type 13, a Type 7 and four Type 14 radar plinths. A range of ancillary buildings survive. The area is part of an active base and museum. In March 1947 the station was established as a Sector Operations Centre. Between 1961 to 1963 the station was reduced to care and maintenance and was then reopened as a Master Radar Station. A fire in 1966 destroyed the underground operations complex and the station was closed until 1974 with a new data-handling system occupying the original Happidrome. In 1994 the Air Defence Radar Museum opened at the site, which also continues to serve as an operational base.
Personal experience of working at Neatishead communicated by email states ''I was posted there as a sgt in 1973 and it was fully operational, T85, T84, HF200 and more all working. Furthermore, the other half of my Locking entry was posted there in 1971 and all worked on the operational radars, txs and rxs. I left in 1976 and visited again in 1977. T85, stuff of legends, 60Mw with all 12 Txs running''. Detailed history of the 50 years of the founding of RAF Neatishead 1941-1991. R30 operations room, R12 Radar equipment building and R3 underground operations block; Listed. For the designation records of this site please see The National Heritage List for England. Decommissioned 2006 and sold. Feb 2013, 25 acres of the site were again sold. The Air Defence Radar Museum was not part of the sale.

After probably the second worst journey home from London of my life, both ticket and programme have taken a bit of a beating. Getting there was reasonably easy, getting home not so much. The crowds obviously made it tricky anyway, but with the morning's signal cable fire having completely closed Waterloo, travel home was a bit chaotic.

All of the cosplayers on this are female and as they're going for the crown of "best cosplayer in Sweden 2015", most of the costumes are ridiculously fancy. That last one needed two guys holding her up as she "walked" around. This one was significantly more free-moving. I have to say, I've never seen anybody cosplay Quina from FF9 before.

Subject: Planet demand Concrete Commitment - Combat Climate Change
Dear Sir
Greetings from sasrai-Movement
Need concrete decision on World Environment Day (WED) Celebration. When our target is peoples’ awareness need BCC material with some specific message those translate the action for each. May be we shall be in 100% agreement that `T’ shirt in WED celebration should contain messages for the mass and putting name and logo of particular organization/agency doesn’t bear any significance. Furthermore we must emphasize on the quality of cloth/`t’ shirt. It should be useable yearlong and gentleman will be wearing in their morning and evening work yearlong. As our central target is sustainability.
In this connection organization related with Environment Message Promotion could contact the designer to develop some acceptable model that student/youth motivated to use it yearlong.
This is crystal clear:
§ We have already crossed four “planetary boundaries.” They are the extinction rate; deforestation; the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere; and the flow of nitrogen and phosphorous (used on land as fertilizer) into the ocean. Scientist shown human activities — economic growth, technology, consumption — are destabilizing the global environment,”
§ "Human security will be progressively threatened as the climate changes," the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCCC) warned in its overview report. The Pentagon agrees. "Rising global temperatures, changing precipitation patterns, climbing sea levels, and more extreme weather events will intensify the challenges of global instability, hunger, poverty and conflict,"
§ Absolute truth for today’s world careless consumption driving untenable production that driving changes in temperature and weather patterns and that’s the Hotter and Hungry World. Hungry world will contribute millions of desperate people. Desperate people do desperate things: They riot, they fight over food, they overthrow governments, and the mass migrate to food-secure countries. Breakthrough Study says Climate Change and Violence Linked.
Does these aforesaid messages known or clear to all? I must say no. It might be happen that a significant number environment worker yet to be clear about the fact. In addition another irony of fate those people know the message, even teach other about the message but not clear about her/his own diongs in personal life, family, office, road etc. Well someoe well known about doings but still in a big gap between learning/knowing and behavior, attitude above all we can say mindset. Still we are to get the needed realization that when small saving in personal and family life multiplied in million/billion what a big contribution it is in each second, minute, day. As for example if each person committed to save one liter water and if it is performed by 3 billion what might be the contribution.
To face the climate change, global warming, climate crisis planet demand significant change in mindset among all. Street beggar to State driver each has capacity and responsibility to contribute for the habitable earth. And each should have mindset `HOW MUCH LESS CONSUMING I COULD BE’ - `Let’s save a bit, in every step of life no matter how small it is.’
There is another misfortune for us during our planning generally we forget - planet is symbiotically connected - plants, animals, humans and the Earth itself. Our maximum program Human focused. Our theme is `Seven Billion Dreams. One Planet. Consume with Care'. May be experts has the comprehensive or inclusive mindset. But for the much people need very much specific and action oriented message.
Let’s ponder on design the program, message and material inclusive.
Planet in Need

21st April 2008 - I really wanted to pick this programme up when I went to the concert, which was in November 2007, but by the time I got to the tables, they were all sold out.
Luckily enough I was surfing around on the net, and managed to find www.bandtshirts.com.au", which had some stock left over.
Quick smart I made the purchase! There's a back story to this, and if you're interested, click here. But I'm am stoked about the purchase, and those guys at BandTshirts.com.au, especially Dean! Cheers!

In March 2011, Compass and O U I Performance presented O U I #3, an evening of contemporary performance. Founded by Victoria Gray and Nathan Walker in February 2010, O U I Performance curate an ongoing series of performance events in the city of York, presenting new work by emerging and established artists in the field of performance.
O U I #3 presented two artistic collaborations whose work explores different approaches to live art: Ewa Rybska & Wladyslaw Kazmierczak, an artist-duo originally from Poland, whose work often explores ironic and nihilistic attitudes towards fashionable values and artificial icons in art and culture. And York-based artists Jules Dorey Richmond & David Richmond have been making live art together for 15 years, bringing together their respective disciplines of visual art and theatre.
Ecstatic was part of 'From West to North to East to South and Back', a series of six performance art nights across the region, Led by East Street Arts and curated in collaboration with Compass Associates.
