Research Groups

Dramatic progress has been made in the past few years in the field of photonic technologies. For example:

  • New high-res display technologiesA plethora of new screen and projection display technologies have been developed, bringing higher resolution, lower power operation and enabling new ways of machine interaction.
  • Advances in biophotonics have led to a large range of low cost products for personal healthcare.
  • Advances in low cost communication technologies to rates now in excess of 10 Gb/s have caused transceiver unit price cost reductions from >$10,000 just a few years ago to <$100, and, in the last two years, large volume use of parallel photonics in computing has been realised commercially.
  • Advances in polymers have made possible the formation of not just links, but complete optical subsystems fully integrated within printed circuit boards, so that industrial users can expect to commoditise bespoke photonics technology themselves without having to resort to specialist photonics companies. Indeed in many cases, the performance of the photonic sub-systems greatly depends on electronic signal processing and effective systems integration.

These advances have set the scene for a major change in commercialisation activity where photonics and electronics will converge in a wide range of information, sensing, and personal healthcare systems. Importantly, photonics will become a fundamental underpinning technology for a much greater range of companies outside the conventional photonics arena, who will in turn require those skilled in photonic systems to have a much greater degree of interdisciplinary training, and indeed be expert in certain fields outside photonics.

As you can see from the table below, there is a huge breadth to photonics research at both Cambridge and UCL.

"The combined strengths of the groups involved provides a training environment for leading edge research towards future photonic systems that is hard to beat, worldwide."                                                         Professor Alwyn Seeds, Director

Do you party?

Discussion in 'THREAD ARCHIVES' started by Levusti, Jun 10, 2015.

Are you about that party life?

  1. Hell yeah I'm all about that party life!

  2. Hell yeah! I love getting crazy with friends!

  3. Hell yeah! Its thrilling being somewhere I'm not supposed to be!

    0 vote(s)
  4. Well, sometimes, if I got my group of friends to make it better.

  5. Well, sometimes, if I feel in the mood to turn it up.

  6. Well, sometimes, if I know I don't have other responsibilities to keep.

  7. Ew, no! Why would I voluntarily spend time with people?

  8. Ew, no! Partying is definitely not my scene.

  9. Ew, no! It's an unattractive looking like a damn idiot!

    0 vote(s)
  10. What is a party? Can you eat them?

Thread Status:
Not open for further replies.
  1. Well, guise? Do you like turnin up?
  2. I love parties. But on three conditions.

    1. They're mature/sensible about it. Nothing that causes the police to show up (minus stupid shit like a neighbor crying about noise on new years eve).
    2. The people there aren't judgmental pricks who get hostile if someone chooses not to drink or smoke weed.
    3. At least some people that I know are present. I don't care for such events if it's nothing but strangers.

    But assuming those are met though?
    I'm always game for such a thing. :P
    • Like Like x 1
  3. If anyone ever invited me/If I ever knew of any parties being hosted near me, I would definitely attend one. But I'm not/I don't so yeah.
  4. yee

    although I'm too poor to go out often because prices in London are fucking crazy high
    can't wait to get back to home sweet home once term ends where it's only moderately crazy high prices and get #rekt all day erryday during summer

    Should note that this doesn't mean I can't say no to a night out - sometimes I'm not in the mood, though usually it's pretty easy to talk me into it.
  5. No. >:C
    • Love Love x 1
  6. I'd go if nobody was drinking or getting high or smoking cigarettes (I'm uncomfortable around people who are 'under the influence', and very sensitive to secondhand smoke) and if everybody there got along well and there would be no drama. This is assuming a very close friend has convinced me that it wont kill me to go to a social gathering, of course. I don't really do well with groups of people.
  7. You basically un-described a party.

    I enjoy parties and the social setting. I drink the drinks, I do the drugs, I laugh with the people and in the end the ones left standing sing drinking songs well into the night. Afterwards, I dislike being drunk or whatever I'm feeling because the fun of it is strictly for the social setting.
    • Love Love x 2
    • Like Like x 1
    • Go Home, You're Drunk Go Home, You're Drunk x 1
  8. I probably won't/will try not to attend any college parties since my parents didn't pay for my education only for me to party. Maybe if there are very few to no responsibilities/deadlines at the time and I have my group of friends with me. Otherwise, I'll probably clam up if I'm in a party full of strangers and acquaintances.
  9. Exactly xP
  10. You should remember to give yourself some breathing room.
    If you do nothing but focus on academics, you're going to get overwhelmed at some point, burn out and them ultimately perform worse.

    Now, if the typical college party isn't your thing then don't go. That's something you're totally in your right to do.
    But remember to also take care of yourself, breathers are important so the brain can recharge and get back into things.
    • Love Love x 1
    • Thank Thank x 1
  11. Parties aren't really my thing. Loud noises, alcohol and other stuff, people everywhere. Not my thing. I'd rather spend my time dicking around on the internet.

    Anxiety and phobias aside, all that loud music and shouting would probably give me a mean migraine, too.
  12. We're on exactly the same page.
    • Like Like x 1
  13. I mean, sometimes me and some friends will have small parties where we break out the consoles, mini fridge, and Cheese popcorn, but other than that, No. Sometimes my parents drag me to work parties, and depending on the food there, those can be pretty fun.
  14. A party every so often is super fun. I love meeting new people and getting drunk with friends. But I'm not one to turn up to each and every party that happens - I got other things to do c:

    All in moderation.
  15. Oh yeah.

    I had to quit smoking socially though since I started craving cigs outside of parties.

    So now it's just drinking, but yeah. I'm not really a party animal, but I don't mind getting trashed once or twice a month.
  16. I only like calm parties where you eat and watch TV together with people you know well... Which practically is every time I am with my friends... So doesn't really count as a party... ... I dun like other peoples type of party. I dun like loud music or dance parties or going out to be around lots of strangers and drink parties or whatever kind of parties people have these days o_o I dun like being around strangers or even a lot of people I know. The only type of party I would go to would be a dinner party if I knew the majority of the people there. But it's not like people my age like those kinds of things I: And I only have like two friends living close to me... Sooo. Parties are definitely not my thing xD
  17. Depends on what kind of party.

    If it's a special event party (some sort of holiday) or a themed one then I'm all for it. If it's a party at some random house full of people I don't know, then I'll pass. It's too risky.

    A lot of people where I am can't throw a party for anything. They hold a party in their parent's garage with cheapo alcohol and some sort of music will make the party. Maybe I'm a bit of a snob, but that doesn't motivate me enough to change my plans for. I rather go to a bar for that than someone's house far away.
  18. I used to party every night. Now I only party on Saturdays, and by 'party' I mean play dnd.
  19. Good for you. That's how I started. >.>

  20. Yeah, thankfully it was easier for me since I'm really not around smokers too much outside of parties. Every once in a while, especially when I'm stressed, I still get the cravings.

    Asked by digitalxxl on June 29, 2015 at 05:38 AM

    If I build a form with upload fields such as images these fields are not displayed in the pdf-version of the form.

    Why is this so?

    How would I make the images larger on order forms?

    Asked by pagewalker on May 27, 2016 at 01:43 PM

    How do I make my images larger on this order form?

    Perhaps the images could be to the side of the order fields.

    Thank you!!

    Answered by Ben on May 27, 2016 at 02:36 PM

    You could set the images by using a CSS such as this one:

    .form-product-image, .form-product-image-with-options {
        width: 150px;

    You can of course change the 150 to any other number to match your preferred size.

    I would only recommend 2 things with images:

    1. add smaller ones. Adding images of over 1000px in width will only cause your form to load longer, especially if you are not showing the images in the same sizes

    2. find the size that works best for you and add all images in the same or similar size, so that you can use the CSS (like the one above) that would show them either in their original size or in the size lower than its original - if browsers need to resize your images down, the images look good, however if they resize them upwards, they could end up slightly blurred.

    What I mean is that if you will be showing your images in 150px width, I would recommend adding images with 200px width to your form. That way they will load faster and they would be nicely shown on your form.

    Do of course let us know if you have any questions or issues and to add the CSS to your form, simply follow the steps described here: Inject Custom CSS Codes

'Why stock market gambles pale compared to the booming collectibles markets'

'Why stock market gambles pale compared to the booming collectibles markets'

Paul looks at how Thomas Cook's falling stock price starkly contrasts the booming collectibles markets

More on Investing in Collectibles | View our stock for sale | Learn aboutour 120% Guarantee | Download our iPhone app | Sign-up for your Free Newsletter

"Blue chip" is one of those funny terms that gets used time and time again.

Nowadays, it mostly refers tostocks in corporations whose reputations are for quality, reliability and making a profit in good times - or bad.

Which is why the recent news surrounding holiday giant Thomas Cook, once listed in the FTSE 100 index, is making such waves.

Thomas Cook's shares crashed by 75% yesterday. What's more, the company has revealed it needs another 100m to get through the Winter. In fact, it mayhaveto raise as much as 400m to survive in the long term.

Up and away... and back down again: whatever a company's long-termprospects, stocks can tie you to a performance rollercoaster

Of course, Winter is traditionally a "bad time" for holiday companies. Needless to say, Thomas Cook has some tough times ahead.

Indeed, in times like these it seems fitting that the term "blue chip" actually derives from Poker. As the great investor Peter Lynch himself once said...

"To me, an investment is simply a gamble in which you've managed to tilt the odds in your favour"

  • Peter Lynch, noted Wall Street stock investor

Also bear in mind that Thomas Cook has 145 years of history behind it. Yet thiscounts forlittle in the stock markets.

Shareholders in British bread manufacturer Hovis (founded 1886) recently lost 33% overnight.

So why am I writing about falling shares on a website usually more concerned with rare collectibles like autographs, old manuscripts and historic stamps?

Well, more and more collectibles are also being referred to as "blue chips" nowadays.

The "blue chip" collectibles are coming to the fore as investors continue to embraceinvestment-grade alternative assets. Not as primary investments, it should be pointed out, but rather as excellent ways to diversify an investment portfolio.

Sowhat are the "blue chips" of the collecting world? Well, here are just a few off the top of my head: Marilyn Monroe, Neil Armstrong, Pablo Picasso and John Lennon.

And here are a few figures to go with the names...

Over the last12 months the value of a genuine, fully authenticated, Neil Armstrong autographed photographhas grownby 8.18%. While the value of a John Lennon autographhas grownby 5.04% in the same period.

In fact, the world's 40most sought after autographshave shown an average increaseof 14.84% per annum as witnessed by the PFC40 Autograph Index.

You don't need to be a financial genius to see this beats the 3% pa interest you can expect to get from a bank savings account.

That's one advantage which collectibles have over stocks. And here's another...

Stocks, by their very nature, will give you a bumpy ride...

"I've bought stocks at $12 that went to $2, but then they later went to $30. You just don't know when you can find the bottom"

  • Peter Lynch

Acompany's fundamental value may prove itself in the long-term. But, in the meantime, you'll find yourself strapped to a rollercoaster. Even then, today's blue chip company could be tomorrow's damp squib - Thomas Cook being a case in point.

Investment grade collectibles, on the other hand,have historically proven themselves immune to general economic conditions and political vagaries. In fact, during the recent economic recession collectibles have continued to set world record prices as an increasing number of investors view them as a safe place to store wealth.

Hollywood collection of Muhammad Ali autographed memorabilia

Still THE MAN: Muhammad Ali is among the collectibles markets' "bluechips" - recently setting a new auction World Record price

I've mentioned that thevalue of a genuineJohn Lennon autographed album pageincreased by 5.04% in the past year. The long term returns have proven even better, up by 799.3% over the past 11 years.

Lennon's values are on the rise as his legacy grows, and his rarest collectibles become even scarcer and more coveted.

How do you spot a "blue chip" in the collecting world?

There are various ways...

Firstly, look for items which are selling for multimillions at auction. LS Lowry art and Muhammad Ali memorabilia are two examples - both have scored World Record prices in recent times.

Another question you can ask: has a collectible like this featured in major museum collections or a big exhibition? Like the influential artist Louis Bourgeois, whose iconic Spider artwork recently turned heads on the streets of New York...

Even if you are buyer on a budget, it's possible to find lower priced collectibles linked to these "blue chips" (an original Louis Bourgeois etching once auctioned in New York for just $900, for instance).

But here I've only skimmed the surface...

If you'd like to find out more about how you can benefit by diversifying your investment portfolio with collectibles, then why not take a look at our special investment pages.

And if you'd like to know which items we are recommending to our clients please give us a call on +44 (0) 117 933 9503 or email info@paulfrasercollectibles.com

All the best, until next week

    I am hoping to go to the Albert Schweitzer Leadership for Life conference in the summer of 2017. This costs £1418 per person and it helps people aged between 15 and 18 to gain confidence, leadership skills, make new friends and the opportunity to start a business.

TRESPASSING by Sam Pickering

by Sam Pickering

Pub Date: May 20th, 1994
ISBN: 0-87451-640-4

 From Pickering--English professor (Univ. of Connecticut) and reluctant inspiration for the movie Dead Poets Society--more essays that distill from life's accumulated clutter the small telling details that amuse, illuminate, and often lyrically celebrate. Like the long walks he takes in search of life forced ``under a microscope,'' Pickering's essays not only explore themes in a leisurely way but digress: He makes pithy comments on family and colleagues, relates old Southern jokes, and records the summer appearance of a milkweed plant or the amount of native raspberries recently picked. In the title essay, Pickering happily ignores a gate marked State Property--No Trespassing and goes on to confess that for years he has trespassed, ``for a closed gate is an open invitation to explore. Writers, of course, forever trespass, wandering beyond the margins of good behavior into off-limits and then converting private property into public life.'' A free- spirited trespasser, he eavesdrops on conversations in his local coffee shop and roams the fields behind his Connecticut neighbors. In ``Reading Martin Chuzzlewit'' he admits that a rare visit to a mall makes him ``imagine a hidden life, an hour tangled with ribbons and sweet red surprises'' with the women he sees there. Tempted by an invitation to interview for a college presidency in his native Tennessee, he acknowledges that although a longtime critic of college athletics, he was prepared to consider football ``too trivial to become a matter of principle and prevent me from accepting'' such a position (``Sweet Auburn''); and while closing up his father's apartment, he discovers that ``selling is infectious, raising the fervor of the seller, more than that of the buyer'' (``A Different Seller''). The jokes are often outrageously corny, the whimsy strained, but they're all part of the delight Pickering so palpably creates in this endearing celebration of the ordinary, the profound, and, most of all, the absurd.

A loan of $3,675 helped a member to purchase thread for weaving and inventory for store.

Belen Cerro De Oro (Group 2)'s story

The road into Cerro de Oro cuts through lush forests, passing by men with machetes chopping away, others carrying their day’s gatherings on their backs to be sold as firewood in town. Along the forests are thousands of rocks, several serving as billboards for political slogans, too many others as memorials. The road opens up to an emerging little town, with a school on the right, and an avocado tree on the left. Underneath the avocado tree sit 28 women, vying for the relief its branches offer from the unforgiving sun. They have gathered here once a month for the past seven years. The women of the Belen communal bank have overcome insurmountable odds, one loan at a time.

The women of Belen come from a region rich in weaving, and many grew up learning the intricate art from their parents. From the time they were young, they were working for meager wages in weaving factories, earning barely enough to survive, with no way to get ahead. After joining Friendship Bridge, they were given the initial push they needed to escape their poverty. Today, seven years later, every single woman has her own weaving business, earning a fair income that supports their families and even enough to send all their children to school. They wear this success with a humble pride, supporting each other in their victories and obstacles.

Ten of the 28 women are asking for a loan of 28,000 quetzales ($3,675), ranging from $300 to $400 per person. Nine of the women will invest this money in their weaving businesses, purchasing thread to weave intricate huipiles (traditional blouses like the ones in the picture), skirts, scarves, and blankets. A single huipil can take up to a month to make, and after an initial investment of about 200 quetzales ($25), it can be sold for around 500 quetzales ($65). All the supplies are purchased in the nearby town of Santiago de Atitlán. A few of the women also employ as many as five other women, and part of the loan will go towards paying their salaries. Having the extra help greatly increases production (which is essential when a single product takes a month to make), and therefore adds significantly to the potential income. One woman also runs a small store, selling snacks, soft drinks and daily necessities such as soap and toilet paper. She plans to restock her store and add new varieties of snacks to keep her customers interested.

The women of Belen have come very far over the past seven years and they don’t plan on stopping. They want to expand their businesses; the ones who currently work alone would like to someday hire help. They would also like to expand to other nearby markets, bringing in new customers. Everything they do is for the future of their children, and their dreams revolve around educating their children, with the hope that they can learn to read and write, and someday become professionals, free of the hardships of their parents.

In this group: Carmen, Santos, Juana, Julia, Josefa, Elena, Concepcion, Melchora, Carmen, Luina*

In the mid-1930s an unsuccessful American advertising executive, Herbert W. Armstrong, founded a millenialist, Sabbatarian Christian sect with a heterodox theology. Over the next half century, despite a number of setbacks, scandals, criticisms, and attacks from former members and anti-cultists, Armstrong's organization, the Worldwide Church of God, grew to around 100,000 baptized members with a world circulation of between six and eight million for its flagship monthly magazine Plain Truth. In January 1986, Armstrong died. His successor changed most of the Church's distinctive doctrines, leading it towards an increasing convergence with mainstream Evangelical Christianity. This revision created a massive cognitive dissonance in ministers and members: should they accept or reject the authority of the Church leadership which had abandoned the authority of the founder's teachings? Groups of ministers left the religion to form new churches, taking tens of thousands of members with them. These schismatic churches in turn faced continuing schism, resulting in over 400 offshoot churches within little more than a decade. In this major study David V. Barrett examines the processes involved in schism and the varying forms of legitimation of authority within both the original church and its range of offshoots, from hardline to comparatively liberal. His book extends the concepts of rational choice theory when applied to complex religious choices. More important, he offers a new typological model for categorizing how movements can change after their founders' death, including schism, and explores the usefulness of this model by applying it not only to the Worldwide Church of God, but also to a wide variety of other religions.

Temple Grandin, Ph.D., is a gifted animal scientist who has designed one-third of all the livestock-handling facilities in the United States. She also lectures widely on autism--because Temple Grandin is autistic, a woman who thinks, feels, and experiences the world in ways that are incomprehensible to the rest of us. In this unprecedented book, Grandin delivers a report from the country of autism. Writing from the dual perspectives of a scientist and an autistic person, she tells us how that country is experienced by its inhabitants and how she managed to breach its boundaries to function in the outside world.

Budget 2016: Turnover threshold for small business increased from $2M to $10M

It has been confirmed that from July 1, small to medium-sized businesses with an annual turn over of up to $10 million dollars will qualify for a company tax rate of 27.5%, down from 30%.

It is a change the Federal Government believes will allow SMEs to “innovate, grow and employ more Australians.

It is anticipated that close to a million Australian businesses will benefit from the move announced by Scott Morrison this evening.

The tax reform is part of the Government’s focus on jobs and growth and comes under their “ten year enterprise tax plan” which will see company tax cuts gradually phased in for all businesses by 2026-2027, after which the company tax rate will be cut further to finally sit at 25%.

The tax cut is expected to cost $400 million in the 2016-17 financial year, $500 million from 2017-18, $800 million from 2018-19 and $950 million from 2019-20, with a forecasted total budget cost of $2.65 billion.

Treasurer Scott Morrison said in his budget speech that the plan is an important measure in securing Australia’s future prosperity and increasing the size of the economy by over 1 percent in the long term.

Morrison said the tax breaks to small businesses were given first as they are “more likely to reinvest their earning and more likely to be Australian owned.”

Responding to the announcement, Minister for Small Business Kelly O’Dwyer said that it is a move that will create “the right conditions for Australian small businesses to innovate, prosper, and create new jobs”.

“As a vital sector of our economy and the home of Australian enterprise and innovation, Australia’s hardworking small businesses need a tax system that actively supports them,” O’Dwyer said.

A spokesperson from the Australian Bankers’ Association said, “The Australian Bankers’ Association supports the measures in the Federal Budget to reduce the tax burden for small businesses, and the progressive extension of lower taxes to all businesses over a 10 year timeframe.”

“A healthy small business sector helps to create jobs and keeps our economy growing.”

The Council of Small Business Australia (COSBOA) said that lifting the threshold to $10 million would be significant.

“This would be a very big change and really good for the economy. It sends a really good message and a lot more people who turn over more than $2 million can take advantage of that, like your local pharmacy,” said Peter Strong, COSBOA chief executive.

$20,000 instant asset write-off and tax concessions

Businesses under the new threshold will benefit from the $20,000 instant asset write-off scheme introduced for some small businesses in last years’ budget.

Previously, the scheme was available to businesses with annual earnings under $2 million and in the 2015 financial year 99,000 small businesses made claims. The current timeframe for the scheme will see it end in June 2017.

Commenting on the budget, Small Business Minister Kelly O’Dwyer said that change in eligibility “will help more small businesses to reinvest in their business and grow by helping them to replace or upgrade their machinery and equipment.”

The Government also revealed that small businesses under the new $10 million threshold will have access to tax incentives including the simplified trading stock rules, depreciation pooling provisions, and Pay-As-You-Go Instalments payments option.

“The Government’s economic plan deserves a 9/10 for respecting the vital role SMEs play in the Australian economy,” said MYOB CEO Tim Reed.

“This is the second year in a row where small and medium businesses have been recognized and put front and centre in the budget. I have no doubt they will respond in the way the government hopes – by investing more in innovation and creating high quality jobs.”
