Did you know....
> "Littering" is a criminal offence. You can be fined up to £2,500, though not jailed. The average fine is around £90, plus court costs. Cases are tried in magistrates' courts.
> The council clears around 800 tonnes of litter and waste from the streets each year
> Litter is an eyesore, costs millions to clear up and is the main reason why the rat population is 60 million and rising fast.
Now noone wants to see rats running around in their lives do they?!

Rotterdam II - The Cubes
|
|
Are'nt they amazing!
The cube houses are located right next to the Blaak Metro station.
THE DESIGNER
The cube house, or pole house, is a design of the Dutch architect Piet Blom (1934-1999). The construction of the 38 cube houses started in 1982 and was completed in 1984. Blom thought of his design as an abstract tree and of the total complex as a wood. A cube house reminds of a tree hut that is accessible through the pole.
THE CONCEPT
Blom’s idea was to create a kind of village within a city. On street level, several public activities take place in small businesses, shops, school and on a playground. The living is done in the cube houses upstairs, thus combining the public with the private.
The complex is in fact a pedestrian bridge arching the street below. Blom was asked by the municipal town planners to ‘furnish’ this bridge. In a sense, the cube houses are an architectonic experiment, in which Blom considered form, aesthetics and spatial effects more important than functionality and practical purpose.

"Remember, remember,
the fifth of November,
Gunpowder, treason and plot.
We see no reason why
Gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot!"
jkjk
The history behind it all goes like this:
Four hundred years ago, in 1605, a man called Guy Fawkes and a group of plotters attempted to blow up the Houses of Parliament in London with barrels of gunpowder placed in the basement. They wanted to kill King James and the king’s leaders.
Why did Guy Fawkes want kill King James 1st and the king’s leaders?
When Queen Elizabeth 1st took the throne of England she made some laws against the Roman Catholics. Guy Fawkes was one of a small group of Catholics who felt that the government was treating Roman Catholics unfairly. They hoped that King James 1st would change the the laws, but he didn't.
Catholics had to practise their religion in secret. There were even fines for people who didn't attend the Protestant church on Sunday or on holy days. James l passed more laws against the Catholics when he became king.
The plot was simple - the next time Parliament was opened by King James l, they would blow up everyone there with gunpowder.
Guy Fawkes was given the job to keep watch over the barrels of gunpowder and to light the fuse. He was with the 36 barrels of gunpowder when the authorities stormed it in the early hours of November 5th, was caught, tortured and executed.
In celebration of his survival, King James ordered that the people of England should have a great bonfire on the night on November 5th.
The event is still commemorated annually in England on 5 November by fireworks and burning ‘guys’ (effigies) on bonfires.
