Pub boss demands licence back
FURIOUS landlord Nick Hogan has instructed his legal team to contact Bolton Council to demand they reinstate him as the licensee of two town centre bars. The rebel pub boss found himself locked out of The Swan Hotel and Barristers bar on Friday when the owner of the buildings took action. Paul Kylie called in bailiffs to break in and change the locks, claiming Mr Hogan had breached the terms of his lease - which states he must abide by all UK laws - by allowing customers to smoke. A notice was placed in the window claiming any attempts by Mr Hogan to re-enter the pubs would result in criminal or civil action being taken against him. The rebel landlord - who has been in the news recently for allegedly flouting the smoking ban - went to the High Court in Manchester and claimed he was not a law breaker because he had not been convicted in connection with his reported smoking ban breaches.
BW's Facts-be-Damned Defense Of Software Patents
He took a box and lined the inside with tin foil. He then placed a solar panel in the box and an array if 25 low-energy light bulbs. He connected the solar panel to a pair of car batteries (outside the box) and stuck a multimeter on it. He was astonished to find that, after allowing the bulbs to build up some heat, between the heat and light the solar panel produced 40% surplus electricity over what was needed to run the array of light bulbs. I don't know what bulbs he used, but standard house socket low-energy bulbs are 20 watts (they burn equivalent to the brightness of an 80 watt but only use 20) so an array of 25 would consume 500 watts, meaning that 40% of that (and hence the excess output that can be used to power other things) is 200 watts. Such a system could in turn power 10 external energy-efficient bulbs and is fully self contained.
Language group picks 'subprime' as Word of the Year
About 80 members of the organization spent two days debating the merits of runners-up "Facebook," "green," "Googleganger" and "waterboarding" before voting for an adjective that means "a risky or less than ideal loan, mortgage or investment." The choice signifies the public's concern for a "deepening mortgage crisis," the society said in a statement. "Facebook," as a noun, verb or adjective, was popular with younger linguists, Glowka said. Several people lobbied for "green," which "designates environmental concern," but the term has been around for years, he said. The word topped the 2007 "Most Useful" category, one of numerous subgroups the society choses. The group also decided that although "waterboarding," an interrogation technique that simulates drowning, gained a lot of attention during recent attorney general confirmation hearings, it was a bigger deal in 2004, Glowka said.

Natural Disorder
The elephant in the room, this painting lays to rest any doubt that the smaller works have their roots in the classic, formulaic foreground, middle ground, and background.) The tempera underpainting, in lazily applied, neutral earth tones, acts as a foil for the chromatically saturated oils scraped and scribbled over them. In the past, Mr. Kirkeby has relied on layering as a procedural device, sometimes clogging his surfaces with multiple coats of pigment, insisting on a studio narrative that defies the basic tenet of Action Painting: the organic, spontaneous response to the painting's own trajectory as it unfolds in the present moment. Surprisingly, these new paintings are allowed to breathe. Each is structured around a vertical band occupying the center section. The left and right sides are handled differently, with conspicuously distinct visual characteristics that yield a dynamic asymmetry.

Coastal communities urged to clean beaches
Mumford (C/R), Jan. 13, GNA - Mr Kow Osafo-Kotu, 2007 National Best Fisherman, has urged chief fishermen in coastal communities to organize clean-up exercises to tidy up the beaches as their contribution towards the success of the upcoming African Cup of Nations tournament to be hosted by Ghana. Speaking at a meeting of fishermen at Mumford in the Central Region on Saturday, Mr Osafo-Kotu said 2008 was a challenging year for fishermen as they had an important role to play in the success of the CAN 2008 and the December election. He urged chief fishermen to collaborate with traditional rulers; assembly and unit committee members to keep the beaches clean before, during and after the football fiesta, as beaches were well-known destinations for visitors and tourists. Mr Osafo-Kotu urged fishermen to be vigilant during their fishing expeditions and to report any suspicious activities at sea to the appropriate authorities.
