Levan Wine Menu Welcome to the party. In honour of our favourite, late disco DJ, Larry Levan, we’ve put together a few wines & drinks in this book that will hopefully take you somewhere near to seventh heaven and back again. Or at least mountain high or river deep. The list features a range of wines which have been made with care and love. The majority are low intervention, organic, biodynamic winemakers who care as much about environment as they do with what’s in the glass, realising that both are intrinsic to each other. Enjoy!

The Jura we’re talking about is found in Eastern France, in the shadow of the Alps and a neighbourly distance from its famous cousin, Burgundy. Nicholas, Matt and Mark have a profound love for the Jura, with its unique grape varietals – Savagnin, trousseau and poulsard – and legendary cult wine makers such as Pierre Overnoy and Jean-Francois Ganevat. We love it so much, that we’ve dedicated a couple of pages to the region and with simple descriptions that will hopefully encourage you guys to explore this fascinating winemaking area.

  • Skins and the Impossibility of Youth Television
    Skins and the impossibility of youth television David Buckingham This essay is part of a larger project, Growing Up Modern: Childhood, Youth and Popular Culture Since 1945. More information about the project, and illustrated versions of all the essays, can be found at: https://davidbuckingham.net/growing-up-modern/. In 2007, the UK media regulator Ofcom published an extensive report entitled The Future of Children’s Television Programming. The report was partly a response to growing concerns about the threats to specialized children’s programming posed by the advent of a more commercialized and globalised media environment. However, it argued that the impact of these developments was crucially dependent upon the age group. Programming for pre-schoolers and younger children was found to be faring fairly well, although there were concerns about the range and diversity of programming, and the fate of UK domestic production in particular. Nevertheless, the impact was more significant for older children, and particularly for teenagers. The report was not optimistic about the future provision of specialist programming for these age groups, particularly in the case of factual programmes and UK- produced original drama. The problems here were partly a consequence of the changing economy of the television industry, and partly of the changing behaviour of young people themselves. As the report suggested, there has always been less specialized television provided for younger teenagers, who tend to watch what it called ‘aspirational’ programming aimed at adults. Particularly in a globalised media market, there may be little money to be made in targeting this age group specifically.

  • Romeo and Juliet Act 5.Pdf
    THE TRAGEDY OF ROMEO AND JULIET by William Shakespeare ACT V. Scene I. Mantua. A street. Enter Romeo. Rom. If I may trust the flattering truth of sleep My dreams presage some joyful news at hand. My bosom's lord sits lightly in his throne, And all this day an unaccustom'd spirit Lifts me above the ground with cheerful thoughts. I dreamt my lady came and found me dead (Strange dream that gives a dead man leave to think!) And breath'd such life with kisses in my lips That I reviv'd and was an emperor. Ah me! how sweet is love itself possess'd, When but love's shadows are so rich in joy! Enter Romeo's Man Balthasar, booted. News from Verona! How now, Balthasar? Dost thou not bring me letters from the friar? How doth my lady? Is my father well? How fares my Juliet? That I ask again, For nothing can be ill if she be well. Man. Then she is well, and nothing can be ill. Her body sleeps in Capel's monument, And her immortal part with angels lives. I saw her laid low in her kindred's vault And presently took post to tell it you. O, pardon me for bringing these ill news, Since you did leave it for my office, sir. Rom. Is it e'en so? Then I defy you, stars! Thou knowest my lodging. Get me ink and paper And hire posthorses. I will hence to-night. Man. I do beseech you, sir, have patience. Your looks are pale and wild and do import Some misadventure.

  • A Review of Aperture Coupled Microstrip Antennas: History, Operation, Development, and Applications by Professor David M
    A Review of Aperture Coupled Microstrip Antennas: History, Operation, Development, and Applications by Professor David M. Pozar Electrical and Computer Engineering University of Massachusetts at Amherst Amherst, MA 01003 May 1996 INTRODUCTION: This article reviews the current status of aperture coupled microstrip antennas. Since its introduction in 1985 [1], the features offered by this antenna element have proved to be useful in a wide variety of applications, and the versatility and flexibility of the basic design have led to an extensive amount of development and design variations by workers throughout the world. We begin with some historical notes about the early development of this antenna, and discuss its main features relative to other types of microstrip antenna feeding methods. We then discuss the basic operating principles of the aperture coupled antenna, followed by a summary of the extensive development that this antenna has undergone, in terms of both practical design features and modeling techniques. We close with a short list of some of the applications of this antenna element. To place this discussion in the larger context of microstrip antenna technology, we refer the reader to several articles that review this subject [2]-[5]. Some of the useful features and recent developments related to aperture coupled microstrip antennas are listed below: · demonstrated impedance bandwidths ranging from 5% to 50% · independent selection of antenna and feed substrate materials · two-layer construction shields radiating aperture from feed network · increased substrate space for antenna elements and feed lines · convenient integration for active arrays · theoretically zero cross polarization in principle planes · many possible variations in patch shape, aperture shape, feed line type, radomes, etc.
