  • Written Representation CL Final 1 06/03/19 Chris Lowe
    Chris Lowe: interested Party, Registration Number: 20014275 Manston Airport DCO TR020002 WRITTEN RESPONSE NOTE: Headings in Bold show issue to which a response is shown References are given a number plus document title in brackets, with list of all References at the end, and a separate email attachment with the smaller documents. Introduction I have been concerned at the poor management of the former Manston airport ever since it became a purely civilian airport, and CPRE Kent's concern was sufficient for them to issue a Report in 2001: “Manston The Real impact' (1 Manston Final.rtf ), and Chapter 8. Conclusions and Recommendations included: “8.1 Seeking a balance CPRE Kent is not averse to the principle of some development at the airport. Indeed, it believes that appropriate and carefully planned development as a local airport could play a role in assisting the economy of Thanet and some of the surrounding regions. But there are important balances to be struck. As well as bringing opportunities for some jobs, airports bring noise, pollution and congestion, all of which lower the quality of life in the area affected. Without adequate planning and control then there is the risk that the airport would carry on developing inexorably. Any plans for the future of Manston must be carefully defined and take all factors into account so that overall there is a positive benefit to the area. 8.2 Concerns over the development of Manston Airport With the above in mind, CPRE Kent has raised a number of very serious concerns over the way development is proceeding.

  • Pet Shop Boys in It Couldn't Happen Here
    Pet Shop Boys in It Couldn’t Happen Here Directed by Jack Bond Limited Edition Blu-ray/DVD set released on 15 June 2020 Unavailable worldwide for 30 years, at last Pet Shop Boys’ 1988 feature film It Couldn’t Happen Here makes its overdue debut on Blu-ray and DVD. Newly remastered by the BFI in High Definition at 4K resolution, it will be released in a Limited Edition Dual Format Edition set (discs in both formats) on 15 June 2020. Packed full of iconic tracks, It Couldn’t Happen Here is a singularly strange, striking and sensational pop movie par excellence. Numerous extras include a 48-page digi-book that contains a new interview with Neil Tennant, a new feature commentary with director Jack Bond, co-writer James Dillon and cinematographer Simon Archer, and new interviews with Jack Bond and choreographer Arlene Phillips. Jack Bond (The Blueblack Hussar) originally set out to make an extended pop video based on Pet Shop Boys’ 1987 album Actually. What he ended up with was a flamboyantly full-scale feature film that finds Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe embarking on an outstanding musical odyssey from coast to capital, encountering the eccentric likes of screen legends Joss Ackland, Gareth Hunt and Barbara Windsor along the way. Perfect pop surrealism meets road movie to the sound of hits from the duo’s fantastic first two studio albums, including all-time classics ‘West End girls’, ‘It’s a sin’ and ‘Always on my mind’.

  • 50 Nutrition Strategies for Athletes
    50 Nutrition Strategies for Athletes www.ChrisLoweNutrition.com Protein (1-5) 1. Best ‘bang for your buck’ protein sources are; meat, fish, eggs, dairy and whey protein. These sources of protein are highest in the amino acid Leucine which triggers muscle growth and repair. 2. Eating a sufficient dose of protein signals the body to build and repair damaged muscle from exercise. Therefore the dose per meal is very important. 3. This dose is approx. 30g of protein. Larger athletes may require more. 4. Eat 4-5 protein rich meals per day that are evenly spaced out. 5. Eat a higher dose of protein before going to bed. www.ChrisLoweNutrition.com Carbohydrates Part I (6-10) 6. Carbohydrates are primarily stored within the muscles (400-500g), liver(100g) in the form of glycogen , and in the blood (4g) which are ‘topped up’ through consuming carbohydrate rich foods in the diet. 7. Carbohydrates are the main driver for exercise performance – Restrict these and expect a decrease in performance. 8. It’s advisable that the pre exercise meal should generally come from higher glycemic (HGI) carbohydrates as opposed to lower glycemic (LGI) carbohydrates. 9. Consuming a higher carbohydrate diet during the recovery period restores muscle glycogen and improves repeated performance when training or competing on successive days. However total daily intake will dictate optimal rates of recovery. 10. Reducing carbohydrates around Endurance/Cardiovascular training sessions may improve the training adaptation. This is know as ‘train low’ or ‘sleep low’. www.ChrisLoweNutrition.com Carbohydrate Part II (11-15) 11. During training and competition, consuming carbohydrates in the form of liquid, gels or semi-solid foods is advised to reduce fatigue.

  • From CHRIS LOWE Interested Party, Reference: 20022096
    From: To: Cleve Hill Solar Park Subject: Additional Evidence for Noise impacts on birds; Land Use and effects on Carbon; the Benefits of Nature; Date: 24 August 2019 17:23:19 Attachments: From CHRIS LOWE Interested Party, reference: 20022096 Dear Examiners, 1 Background Noise adversely affects Birds New evidence shows that human generated noise masks communication of crucial information between birds, which can therefore affect bird reproduction and so adversely affect survival of bird species. The attached provide summaries of the research, which is restricted access document. For Cleve Hill Solar, the constant background from the inverters, transformers and other equipment, would have this effect. What is unknown, as I believe that wind noise has not been modelled, is the increase in wind noise from the panels, fencing and all the associated infrastructure. So the actual noise impact may be much greater than expected, and hence the impact on birds, and indeed humans, may be a lot worse. So the Applicant needs to provide detailed modelling of all these noise impacts. 2 Land Use and effects on Carbon A recent article by George Monbiot relating to the carbon impact of land use, refers to a Nature paper which shows how that farming has a much higher carbon cost than natural ecosystems: Nature estimates that natural ecosystems can store 9 tonnes of carbon more per person than farming would. He notes the article says that beef has a carbon cost of 643 kg, while lamb 749 kg. As Cleve Hill propose to graze sheep, this would add to the loss of carbon sequestration because of covering the area with PV panels, thus making a huge carbon cost.

  • Talking About "Tribe" Moving from Stereotypes to Analysis
    Talking about "Tribe" Moving from Stereotypes to Analysis Updated February 2008 This Africa Action resource, originally written for our predecessor organization the Africa Policy Information Center, has proved to be one of the most enduring and useful documents generated in Africa Action’s rich history. Although it was written over a decade ago, the arguments presented here remain powerfully relevant for understanding current events. The crisis in Kenya that emerged following the tarnished elections in December 2007 has captured the attention of the Western media and population alike. The dominant frame by which the situation has been represented by most American and European reporters and commentators is as a “tribal conflict” between the Luo and Kikiyu. The violence and turmoil that erupted after the elections are explained as the result of deep-rooted mutually hostile identities present among Kenya’s people. Not only does using the term “tribe” in this instance promote a racist conception of African ethnicities as primitive and savage, it prevents observers from coming to an accurate understanding of the causes of this conflict. To go beyond an ethnic analysis and consider the political, social and economic dimensions of Kenya’s conflict, please see Africa Action’s statement on the crisis available here: http://www.africaaction.org/newsroom/index.php?op=read&documentid=2707&type=15&is sues=256&regions=4 . Rethinking the use of “tribe” in the African context can support a discourse on Africa grounded in African realities that escapes the intellectual laziness of a term that has no coherent meaning. Whether dealing with Kenya, Rwanda, Sudan or any other African nation that experiences a conflict with ethnic dimensions, the U.S.

  • Super Interview
    Pet Shop Boys The Super Interview At the end of 2015 Chris Lowe and • You toured your last album Electric for a long time – when did you start to write Super? Neil We started to write this album in London in 2014. The first song we wrote was (the Neil Tennant answered some questions single) “The Pop Kids”… about the new album, Super, which comes Chris That was actually started on tour with Take That. three years after the brilliant success of Neil I didn’t know that…! Electric, their highest-charting album in Chris It was started in Munich. Hence it was originally called “Munich”. the UK and USA for 20 years. Neil On the tour with Take That, Chris had a little keyboard set-up. Chris After the shows I quite often don’t want a drink or even to go to the hotel bar – so rather than go to the hotel bar for one last drink I would switch the gear on and have a little go at writing some songs, without any thought of what they would be used for. But as I was doing this one (“The Pop Kids”) I did think it was rather good – so when we started writing for the album in Berlin I dug it up. • What inspired the lyrics for “The Pop Kids”? N It is sort of a true story. You may have noticed that the lyrics say: “Remember those days, the early 90s? We both applied for places at the same university.” Mark Farrow (PSB designer) thought it was autobiographical.
