Turning research results into commercial success - EU needs to improve its record.EU calls on members to capitalise on research results and proposes joint approach European researchers publish as many papers as their American counterparts, but they trail badly behind when it comes to inventions, patents, licensing deals and spin-offs Universities and other research bodies need to improve on the follow-through, “so we can turn scientific research into new products and services, which will create new industries and jobs,” explains enterprise and industry commissioner Günter Verheugen Researchers need to manage and share their intellectual property, the EU argues. Far from conflicting with their education and research goals, this could encourage more investment and attract students and scientists the EU commission has produced a set of common regulatory principles to help member countries iron out differences in rules protecting research results. And it is putting forward a code of practice for research organisations, to guide them when formulating policy recently EU countries have done much to promote the transfer and sharing of knowledge, including changes to the law and new guidelines - but too often on a purely national scale. For the EU to reap the full economic benefits of scientific research, a Europe-wide approach is needed.

Being the third son of the family and not bred to any trade, my head began to be filled very early with rambling thoughts. My father, who was very ancient, had given me a competent share of learning, as far as house-education and a country free school generally go, and designed me for the law; but I would be satisfied with nothing but going to sea; and my inclination to this led me so strongly against the will, nay, the commands of my father, and against all the entreaties and persuasions of my

mother and other friends, that there seemed to be something fatal in that propensity of nature, tending directly to the life of misery which was to befall me. My father, a wise and grave man, gave me serious and excellent counsel against what he foresaw was my design. He called me one morning into his chamber, where he was confined by the gout, and expostulated very warmly with me upon this subject. He asked me what reasons, more than a mere wandering inclination, I had for leaving father’s house
and my native country, where I might be well introduced, and had a prospect of raising my fortune by application and industry, with a life of ease and pleasure.

Thus he embarked on the reconstruction of the building for the residence of his Court as we know it now. The Alhambra was a palace, a fortress and a citadel; the residence of the Nasrid Sultans and top government officials, court servants and the royal guard. The Nasrid Kingdom became the last Islamic sultanate on the Iberian Peninsula, and its capital Granada progressively received Muslim populations forced to retreat from the Christians. The city grew with the development of new suburbs and extended its walls nearly until it was conquered at the end of the 15th century.
BUILT BETWEEN THE 12TH AND 14TH CENTURIES, THE GENERALIFE WAS USED AS A PLACE OF REST FOR THE MUSLIM ROYALTY. IT WAS DESIGNED AS A RURAL VILLA IN THE VICINITY OF THE ALHAMBRA, WITH DECORATIVE GARDEN, FRUIT AND VEGETABLE PATCHES.

Many South Florida homeowners love to send snapshots of their luscious green palms and gardens in the middle of the winter to family and friends hibernating in the deep, arctic North. These frozen family members respond with jealousy, remarking about how easy it is for us.while taking care of palms does have major perks, it’s not all fun and games. Caring for palms is just like a relationship. Maybe you’re waiting to send the picture because your palm is not behaving as you’d like. Well, palm lover, you need to romance your palm. Similar to any other relationship, there are a few sure ways to make this one long-lived: learn to communicate, end all toxic relationships and take the time to know your (palm) partner. learning to communicate with your palms may be the most important way to create a lasting relationship.

Although many theories have been advanced, Jack the Ripper’s identity may never be proven.

Sites in which it is charmed with being And Rigby does take risks here. She soars over the stage. She banters with the audience. The most risky, however, was when she splashed “tears” over the opening-night reviewers and their pen-andpaper notes. She’s particularly adorable working with youth performers, and she’s particularly at ease onstage, gently mocking the show’s several opening-night glitches. But the heart of this show belongs to Horton. Played by the approachable Downs, this Horton has a heart. It just doesn’t quite fill the auditorium, instead beating shyly. Possibly the sound system mars the show. Voices that should be rich sound harsh. Some sound almost shrieky. On the other hand, the Wickershams sound fabulous, singing with clear harmonies and interesting dynamics, fully articulating their lyrics. Another issue is the lighting design, which seems dark, bringing down the energy while hiding performers’ faces. A bit of action at the top of the second act takes place behind a scrim and can barely be seen. But the black-light number,

“Havin’ a Hunch,” provides the show with a bit of exhilaration, though it arrives well into Act Two. And yes, some of Seuss’ themes are quite dark — including parental neglect and the horrors of war though these themes are not hammered in “Seussical.” The brains of this show belong to the Cat in the Hat, played with brisk wit by Rigby. The former champion gymnast is still possessed by her flexibility and daringness.

The said Eliza, John, and Georgiana were now clustered round their mama in the drawing-room: she lay reclined on a sofa by the fireside, and with her darlings about her (for the time neither quarrelling nor crying) looked perfectly happy. Me, she had dispensed from joining the group; saying, “She regretted to be under the necessity of keeping me at a distance; but that until she heard from Bessie, and could discover by her own observation, that I was endeavouring in good earnest to acquire a more sociable and childlike disposition, a more attractive and sprightly manner so mething lighter, franker, more natural, as it were-- she really must exclude me from privileges intended only for contented, happy, little children.”
“What does Bessie say I have done?” I asked. “Jane, I don’t like cavillers or questioners; besides, there is something truly forbidding in a child taking up her elders in that manner. Be seated somewhere; and until you can speak pleasantly, remain silent.” A breakfast-room adjoined the drawing-room, I slipped in there. It contained a bookcase: I soon possessed myself of a volume, taking care that it should be one stored with pictures.

It is one of those cases where the art of the reasoner should be used rather for the sifting of details than for the acquiring of fresh evidence. The tragedy has been so uncommon, so complete and of such personal importance to so many people, that we are suffering from a plethora of surmise, conjecture, and hypothesis. The difficulty is to detach the framework of fact-of absolute undeniable fact-from the embellishments of theorists and reporters. Then, having established ourselves upon this sound basis, it is our duty to see what inferences may be drawn and what are the special points upon which the whole mystery turns. On Tuesday evening I received telegrams from both Colonel Ross, the owner of the horse, and from Inspector Gregory, who is looking after the case, inviting my cooperation.

In light of these grim statistics, the commission is seeking to increase organ donations, including by getting EU countries to exchange organs more regularly among themselves. Some countries already do this, but it is rare. Novel foods are already covered by EU legislation. But the new proposal would create a more efficient and practical Resources too play a role. Some countries devote significant resources to the search for donors. Others - especially new EU countries - are poorly equipped for highly complicated operations like transplants. Other factors include variations in legal procedures for donor consent and differences in attitudes towards the ethical issues surrounding organ donation. For example, many people are uncomfortable with the idea of donating organs from deceased loved ones, but the percentage of refusals is much higher in the UK Organ donation rates vary widely from country to country - from about 35 donations per million inhabitants in Spain to less than 1 per million in Romania.

The commission is also proposing EU-wide standards for donations and transplants to prevent large disparities that undermine safety and complicate the search for donors and allocation of organs The draft law would establish a system for tracing organs and reporting cases where patients suffer a serious reaction after transplant.

LIFESTYLE WITH GREAT FITNESS One night, there was the most terrible storm. It thundered, it lightninged and the rain poured down in sheets. The king and queen and prince sat round the fire toasting crumpets. Suddenly there was a ringing of the bell at the palace gates. Putting on his mackintosh, the king went to see who could be outside on such a dreadful night. When he opened the gates a princess was standing there. But what a sight she was! Water streamed off the ends of her long hair, ran down her clothes and into her shoes. After the rain of forty days and forty nights, the First Father made a New Earth. He looked at all that he had created : Mountains, rivers, jungles, seas; He approached the cabins where the men lived . He heard a strange noise and he approached and saw that it came from the men chewing roots and raw meat. He thought that they did not have the fire to cook and to take a seat around to chat and to tell tales. He looked at the high mountains where certainly there was
30 MOON&SUN
fire. The giant beings that lived there were wicked and hardhearted and had taken possession of the fire not to share it and be able to cook the men in the flames of the volcanoes He looked for someone to help him in his enterprise to take the fire among the beings of water. He called for Cururú, the toad so green like the grass. As Cururú was good catching things that come out flying, he would catch the live coals Already in the giants’ terrain, the god took human form and threw himself to the ground backwards, as fainted. Cururú, green heart, he hid in the pasture. The giants celebrated the finding of food with a good bonfire. They put the man on the bonfire but he did not get burnt, not even heated up When flames covered him, the First Father kicked at the live coals making them fly through the air; The giants did not become aware of anything. Cururú swallowed one that was passing near him and that shouted. Cucururú Then the First Father came out of the live coals so calm. In the meantime giants gaped
in amazement without understanding Being far away, the First Father said to green heart that I should throw the fire and he look for the bow and arrows of god. Then he lit an arrow’s tip and shot it with the bow toward the tree trunk of laurel. And the tree did not burn because the fire got introduced within the wood. The First Father called for the men and showed them the laurel. He explained them that to make a good bonfire it was necessary to cut a piece, to make a hole and to introduce an arrow turning fast with the hands: Then the little flames would come out to light leaves and bigger branches.

A very long time ago, there was a King in the Islands of India and China with two sons. The eldest son, Shahryar, inherited the empire, and the youngest son, Zaman inherited the barbarian Kingdom of Samarcand after many years Shahryar wanted to see his younger brother. The Prime Minister recommended he write his younger brother and invite him to visit So the King sent the Prime Minister with gifts of gold, slaves, and beautiful maidens with a letter to Zaman expressing his love and asked him to visit Zaman was overjoyed to receive the invitation and after a few days, set out to travel to his brother’s palace. A few hours into the trip, he remembered a gift he had forgotten to pack, so he returned to his palace
in the middle of the night and found his wife asleep in the arms of a servant Enraged, he took out his sword and cut the two in pieces. He left the palace and resumed his trip without telling anyone what had happened As he traveled, he could not help thinking about his wife’s betrayal, and his excessive grief brought on a grevious disease causing his skin to turn yellow and his strength to fail When he arrived, his older brother noticed his weakened condition, and asked what was the matter. Zamen only admitted that the difficult trip had sickened him When a month of treatment by the best doctors failed to heal him, Shahryar asked his younger brother to join him in a hunting trip, thinking that fresh air, exercise, and a change of
scenery might have a healing effect But Zaman decliined, saying only that he needed quiet and rest. So Shahryar went hunting without him The next morning, when Zaman woke up, he looked out of his window and saw the wonderfully beautiful Queen with 20 slave girls bathing naked in a fountain in the middle of the garden The Queen shouted loudly “Where is my Saeed”!? and a handsome slave appeared, put his arms around the Queen and carressed her and kissed her. And 20 other servants approached and did the same with the 20 slave girls. And they all made passionate love until the sun went down When Zaman saw the conduct of his sister-in-law the Queen he said to himself “By Allah! My brother is a greater
king than I, and even he has an unfaithful wife”! So he put away his sadness, and began to recover his health and his strength.

If you are in the possession of a fruit press you can squeeze the citrus fruits. Real fruit lovers also have a blender so they can make mixes of all types of fruit. A juice-centrifuge easily extracts the juice out of all fruits and many vegetables and is in our opinion for the more extreme squeezers who also want to drink vegetable juices. It is not very practical in use (a lot of cleaning) and for squeezing almost any type of fruit a fruit press and a blender will do. Try to get it into your system: squeeze those wonder-fruits yourself everyday. Freshly squeezed juices are best. Magical characteristics are ascribed to freshly squeezed juice. Avoid to drink fruit juice from a can or glass bottle because when the bottle or can is closed the juice is heated and gets an acid

structure. Juice from cartons, cans and glass bottles has been pasteurized. This means the juice has been heated (cooked) to kill all the germs. The heating of food changes the enzymes of the food so it looses (some of) its nutritious value. This means you can’t substitute freshly squeezed juice by juice from cartons. To meet your “five to nine pieces of fresh fruits a day” you can squeeze the fruits instead of peeling them and eating them by hand. Squeezing is much more efficient: one glass of 2 squeezed oranges, 2 mandarins and 1 grapefruit can be squeezed in 5 minutes. If you eat 1 banana afterwards you already have consumed 6 pieces of fresh fruits! This also means that you can consume the largest part of the required
nutritional elements you need for a day in just 10 minutes... Squeezed fruit is as healthy as eating a piece of raw fruit out of your hand. Unlike many people think there is not a whole lot of fruit flesh lost when you squeeze fruit. This means that your glass of orange juice does contain all the fibers you need! These fibers prevent from many diseases. Fibers stimulate the digestive system so if you have a substantial amount of fruit intake it is not necessary to eat bran or other intestine stimulating foods

Illegal logging destroys millions of acres of forest each year. Much of the timber ends up in Europe, one of the world’s largest markets for wood products like lumber, plywood and furniture. About 20% of these imports come from trees that were illegally felled Until now the EU has promoted voluntary action to curb illegal logging. But under a new legislative proposal, importers would have to take certain steps to verify the wood is legal. The regulation would also apply to timber producers in the EU, where illegal logging has been reported in some countries Illegal logging is wreaking environmental havoc, accelerating deforestation, biodiversity loss and climate change. Deforestation accounts for around 20% of global greenhouse gas emis-
sions And the problem is getting worse. More than half of all logging now occurs in vulnerable regions - the Amazon basin, central Africa, and southeast Asia. In some countries illegal logging is so rampant it far outstrips legal timber production Deforestation is expected to be a priority in the upcoming international talks on climate change. The commission is proposing a global scheme to reward developing countries for cuts in greenhouse gases achieved by reducing deforestation. Joseph was an elderly, nay, an old man: very old, perhaps, though hale and sinewy. ‘The Lord help us!’ he soliloquised in an undertone of peevish displeasure, while relieving me of my horse: looking, meantime, in my face so sourly that I charitably conjectured he must have need of
divine aid to digest his dinner, and his pious ejaculation had no reference to my unexpected advent. Wuthering Heights is the name of Mr. Heathcliff’s dwelling. ‘Wuthering’ being a significant provincial adjective, descriptive of the atmospheric tumult to which its station is exposed in stormy weather. Pure, bracing ventilation they must have up there at all times, indeed: one may guess the power of the north wind blowing over the edge, by the excessive slant of a few stunted firs at the end of the house; and by a range of gaunt thorns all stretching.
