“We'd all survive if Twitter shut down for a short while during major riots. Social media isn't any more important than a train station, a road or a bus service. We don't worry about police temporarily closing those. Common sense. If riot info and fear is spreading by Facebook and Twitter, shut them off for an hour or two, then restore.” IfsTwoImportantSocialHoursCommonWorryMediaMajorsPoliceTrainSocial MediaCommon SenseStationsBusClosingRiotTrain Stations Author:Louise Mensch
“The best introduction by far to representation of the human figure in art. The Nude is a beautifully written work of sophisticated connoisseurship that analyzes art in its own terms rather than imposing strident, politicized categories on it. It outlines the major body types, male and female, in Western art and, via a wealth of illustrations, trains the reader's eye to detect and evaluate proportion. This book reveres art” HumansArtBookBodyEyeTermWealthWrittenFiguresTypeReaderMajorsFemaleTrainWesternMalesProportionCategoriesSophisticatedRepresentationIntroductionEvaluateOutlinesImposingIllustrationBody Types Author:Camille Paglia

“A fish is free as long as it stays in the water. If it suddenly declares that it wants its freedom to fly in the air like a bird, disaster occurs. A train is free as long as it stays on the track. However, if it demands freedom to take off down a major highway, the result is destruction and devastation. We too can only experience true freedom in its fullest if we remain within the framework of freedom. Often this requires accepting responsibility and practicing discipline.” IfsWantLongWaterResultsResponsibilityAcceptingAirDisciplineDemandMajorsBirdDestructionTrainTrackFishesDisasterHighwaysFrameworkDevastationTrue FreedomAccepting Responsibility Author:Gigi Graham
“I think the most challenging aspect was keeping up the degree of physical fitness you need while filming a major leading role in a primetime U.S. series.

“What Brighton's got is a major sea port on either side, good for importing drugs, great for exporting cash, stolen cars, stolen antiques. It's got the largest number of antique shops in the UK, so it's a great place to fence stolen goods. It's got tremendous communication: you've got the sea ports, you've got the channel tunnel, you've got Gatwick Airport 25 minutes away, and London's 50 minutes away by train. So all these escape routes... Which is what villains like.” SidesNumbersSeaMinutesCarCommunicationDrugMajorsTrainLondonShopsGoodsVillainCashRoutesFenceStolenAirportsTunnelsPortAntiquesBrightonExporting Author:Peter James
