MAKING AN IMPACT. Ned Wilson: Cover Artist Joe Quince.
Illustrator hopes his exhibition, on a warehouse in Nottingham, will lead him onto greater things At the ROFL Audio recording studios in Nottingham, a giant ant is smoking a pipe. Ned Wilson, twenty three year old illustrator from Derby, ponders the piece next to me with an indifference as still and immobile as his posture. “The ant is high,” Ned observes. The studio, which opened as Nottingham’s freshest premier professional recording complex as a response to the talent of musicians cropping up in the city, chose Ned’s illustrative fringe INK SOUP – a narrative art group spawned at Birmingham City University – to re-dec the warehouse. Three artists spent 3 days probing every imaginative recess to meet the brief of creating a cool yet abstract space for music to be recorded. “Pencil on paper, ink, scan, colour digitally,” answers Ned to my question of his usual creative process. With a Visual Communications BA from BCU, finding art for Ned came from – strangely – failing A-level Art! “I had, shall we say, an ongoing
‘disagreement’ with the curriculum leader.” Comic and caricature, the motley medium of myopic manga faces, intense colour, and dark-art graphic novels, hardly endeared the encouragement of his predominantly Fine Art oriented course. The penny dropped however after a foundation degree taken at Derby College where the liberal drive of the course leader allowed his work to flourish and for Ned, he claims, to become conscious of his potential as an artist.
making launch. For every corner I turn escaping them, searching for a narrative in the art – a semblance of structure – Ned’s work counters with a violent assault of mesmeric, often inducing, depictions of wildly unlinked scenes. Whilst not entirely to everyone’s taste, there can be no doubting its allure will lead him on to a future caricaturing a lot more than shisha smoking insects!
So, with that maverick legacy that all great geniuses seem to have etched, where does Ned see himself taking his illustration? “Commercial art is where I’m at right now. Graphic novels would be a dream but for now, I’m all about branding. London, all being well, is the next step.”

I continue my way around this bizarre launch party, conscious that the musicians playing to themselves in broom-cupboard sized mic rooms, spliced with an array of interactive recording equipment glowing more lavishly than a Starship Enterprise, and where cocktail waitresses voluptuously offer canapés and champagne toward me with a subtle yet suggestive manner, are the abstract props for a statement

Bartholomew Beal: Artist Award Winner We dropped in on a busy
Bartholomew Beal ahead of his eagerly anticipated Jonathan Vickers Fine Art Residency exhibition. In amongst wonderful clutter, upon two squeaking chairs, and whilst covered in paint, we rambled over being a former Jazz singer, the inspiration of Derbyshire’s mills, and a curious rivalry with the lady in his life. Must I call you by that name? Barley is fine. My friends call me B. Well I’m not yet your friend, so we’ll meet in the middle. Hello Barley. Hello reporter man. On the topic, your surname rhymes with “spiel” - gimme some spiel about Bartholomew Beal on the road to entering Derby... Nicely done. Well, I’m twenty four, from Cheltenham (that’s in Gloucestershire), studied Fine Art Painting at Wimbledon College of Art and then won a prize which places me here, now, at a Derby studio in front of your good self . . . Clearly, you’ve made it. And what do you make of life in your adopted city? You mean, outside the hermit’s nature of an artist? You do not believe I haven’t been locked in here for the entire nine months to paint do you, with food and water brought to the door, and one visitor allowed a fortnight? I saw you outside returning with pizza like 20 minutes ago... Rumbled. I’ve been to the Wonky Table like fifteen times, the food is delectable. It’s my favourite. Was Art always the calling? Not terribly. I just gave everything a go really. Let’s see: I sang in a Jazz band . . . I was the captain of my local rugby club, I’ve written poetry. . . So in sum, not really. Until I took the plunge and came under the guidance of some wonderful teachers at college, it was all very uncertain.
But earlier on, a certain painting of one of Derby’s most famous sons did inspire a young Barley Beal did it not? Sure did, Joseph Wright’s An Experiment on a Bird in the Air Pump. From when I was like 6 years old and first waddled up to it in the National Gallery, I was pulled in. And is it true that before enrolling at Wimbledon College of Art, fulfilling a more common cliché of ‘finding one’s self’ occurred? Yea, luckily I worked in a rather well-to-do restaurant back home in Cheltenham as a temp job and the clientele that frequented it were generous with their loose change. Essentially, tipping took me to South America and South East Asia and many months of blissful backpacking. So I guess if the painting goes t*ts up you’ve always got a well paying career in waiting back home? Haha! *laughing, he raises finger* Now the residency carries with it, alongside prestige, the princely sum of how much? £29,000. I’m really very lucky to be given such a glorious award and to paint something of such importance and to be paid for it. But I understand you know intimately the runner-up? Yes... my girlfriend. Cringe. Indeed, however, she has won a prize in Amsterdam to which I was the runner-up. Karma. The child springing from this union will be of frightfully talented stock, no? Let’s stick to the Art. I’ve noted that the dynamic of your painting process is not a closed book. That you tend to work your way into the painting, try to find drama: much like novelists write their way in. Was there a similar process when attempting to unearth moments from the folk stories
of the mills? I did initially struggle with the material. But having always used imagist poetry to prompt my work; (the haikus of Ezra Pound for instance), it was just a case of flooding my consciousness over time with the environment. And did you find this diaspora of folk tales was what merited best the residency title: A Sense of Place? I note that very few, if any of your paintings, actually depict the mills. Lots of bus rides up the A6 into Derbyshire led me to meeting people in and about the mills. Its loneliness, its stillness, was all very contrary to the bustling factories of Strutt and Arkwright’s day. So in talking to the locals in the villages, their generational ties to the people of the time that lived, breathed, worked in these places, it was easy to finally find what I was after: which was the people. Emerging from a first class degree on toward a renowned residency, has your young experience as yet been sought? It has. In rather a daunting transformation, I’ve taken some lectures and mentored some students at the University of Derby’s Arts department. Seeing them learn and grow....... Some still communicate. One chap actually yawped up to my studio window late one night last week, “Baaaaatholomeeeeew!” Clearly, he was under the influence... And presumably for this admirer of your work, as a mentor, you gave him a meaningful moment or two of your time? Sure. I had a pint with him. Perhaps, now I’m a friend: ‘B’ it’s been a pleasure.

Josh Owen: Product Design Award Winner Look around. Design is everywhere. When we hear “design,” the mind conjures associative images: architects, designer brands, a pencil and paper. When University of Derby Product Design Graduate Josh Owen hears it… ‘Challenge, create and innovate.’ We find Josh’s success at the most prestigious design studentshowcasing event in the UK, the New Designers Exhibition in Islington’s Design Business Centre. The project is the Eco Paint-Pro. The crux of this clever little box-like object is that it cleans paint rollers efficiently, saving time and energy. To use this intuitive appliance you simply insert your mucky roller and let the machine do the rest. The initial spark occurred after some Sunday morning decorating with his Dad and the post-hassle cleanup operation that everyone detests. Developing the idea onward into a feasible outcome meant months of research, prototyping and testing. Josh led focus groups and analysed the market of existing products, all equating to a final design. Workshops at the University allowed him to progress the wispy, atom-less dream into a physical, innovative product. When asked for pearls of wisdom, Josh kept it simple…

Be prepared for hard work – but it’s enjoyable!
Design is a very enjoyable, satisfying and rewarding opportunity.
Without doubt look to take a works placement, experience is essential when applying for a fulltime job. And the results were there for all to see. Josh’s device went on to scoop a £1000 prize and an internship at men’s shaving giant Wilkinson Design Studios, an outstanding name to add to an already growing portfolio. Looking back over his experiences as a student a in a creative, work-heavy course he exudes nothings but self-satisfaction, “The success hasn’t come on a plate. It’s hard work, but the outcomes have made it all worth while.” Check out his portfolio at www.coroflot.com/ joshowen
Lubaib Gazir:
Four of the Best Joe Quince. DENT. will be profiling at least one photographer per issue and who better to start with than 20 year old Lubaib Gazir. The University of Derby student from Qatar has only recently touched down in the city, but already his exquisite images have showcased some of Derby’s landmarks seen elsewhere in the magazine! Despite a course in Electrical Engineering drawing this mercurial talent from the middle-east, the passion behind the prince lies in his photography, “I began clicking pictures with a digital camera like everyone else. Only after my friends started liking my work did I start taking it seriously.” Using his favoured Canon 550d, the array of Lubaib’s work has seen him shoot fashion, architectural, portrait, and concept art images. Lubaib has chosen for us 4 of his favourite images from his work to date: a misty middleeast, the electricity of London, the bloom of youth and a melancholy portrait. “Photography helped me to bring out the extra-ordinary from the ordinary. I realized that I am able to view the world in a different way, by capturing and expressing the beauty I see in this world which we all share.” Such is the profundity and tenderness of his work, Lubaib’s photojournalism has seen it published in the Doha News as well as commercial fashion and sport tribunes back home. And with a FaceBook following of nearly 7,000 – this is a man in demand. “It’s more about appreciating the great little wonders we have around us, which we often fail to appreciate. You learn more about life through Photography, it allows you to get closer to the subject. Whatever it may be, for example – while shooting images of people in streets – you learn more about the individuals in a richer way, you get to learn more about human nature, fragility and joy.” And his thoughts on his new adopted city: “Derby is the perfect place to live in; very quiet and peaceful, with friendly people all around. Derby is also located in the heart of the UK, so as an explorer myself, I think it provides a perfect base to travel and explore all of the UK conveniently.” We love Lubaib!

Two of our best, Joey Quince & Param Singh, go toe-to-toe tackling the latest album from the chart topping songstress...
Ellie Goulding Halcyon Days
(Polydor)
Ethereal and electric. The elvish twenty five year-old who first stormed onto the scene with her Brit award winning debut album Lights, has repackaged her follow up with a series of new smashes. In what can only be read as a testament to an artist’s continued success, Ellie Goulding has evolved from the murky, mystic tones of Lights with the triumphant Halcyon Days. After nearing a calendar year since its release, Halcyon Days has built a curious momentum. From the moodier releases earlier in the year, Ellie has reloaded the sophomore record with much jumpier cuts that reinforce her dark, introspective and critically pandering songs with a penchant of chart blasters. Calvin Harris, that promeathean spirit responsible for giving even the most mediocre of songstresses (Cheryl Cole in mind) the flame of dance beats, teamed up to produce I Need Your Love, a song that will linger as a medium for nostalgia of Summer ‘13 years from now.
Blue Corner
JOEY.
More recently Ellie’s major success has been the reworked Burn, a No. 1 chart hit. Chiddy Bang’s Xaphoon Jones has been drafted in to inject some soul and sax into the reworking of Alt-J’s Tessellate for a stronger, more titillating version. Goodness Gracious was copenned by Fun’s radiantly camp Nate Ruess; whilst man of the moment DJ Fresh bring his immutable cool. So no matter what my similarly longnecked friend on the opposite side of the page tells you, Ellie has the midas touch!
Red Corner
PARAM.
You could probably sum up Ellie Goulding’s poor attempt to jackhammer her way into the kingdom of British pop princesses where Adele, Jessie J and even Katy B braid each other’s hair at night, in just a sentence or two. She has that voice. One of those boring willowy voices that would sound more at home over a softly strummed vintage Yamaha and in the back of a posh Sainsbury’s advert, not over repetitive drum and bass beats that wouldn’t even make it onto a Pendulum album. What Halcyon didn’t need was a “beefed” up reissue, because Halcyon Days does as little for me as the first offering did.
AM // Arctic Monkeys Alex Thorp.
Domino Records
When a band releases their fifth album, you get the impression that they’re in it for the long haul. And with the release of Arctic Monkeys’ triumphant fifth offering, AM, the Sheffield rockers are well on their way to legendary status. Melody-rich and laced with Dre-influenced West coast beats, AM takes the band’s early hip-hop influences, zips them into a leather jacket and gives them a rockabilly hair cut. There isn’t a weak track on the album, with One For The Road, Arabella and single Do I Wanna Know being the record’s stand outs.

AM is a progression in the band’s remarkably consistent collection and reinforces their position as one of the finest band’s in the UK today.
9/10
Burn, the track that somehow beat Gaga, Miley and Avicii to the top of the charts for three weeks sounds dated. It’s the sort of summer anthem people were throwing their hands up to at BBQs across the country in 2004, which is strange, because if Ellie Goulding was a season, she’d definitely be a winter. The rest of the 10 additional tracks Halcyon Days has to offer follow in similar style. It all takes on this over-produced synth-pop sound that screams out how ‘different’ it is from everything else in the charts and how much better it sounds than it actually does. Even when the album tries to sound a lot colder and atmospheric in Hearts Without Chains and How Long Will I Love You, it comes off more mundane and empty than anything else. You sort of just wish Ellie stuck with the earlier sound. At least you know where you stand with that. Unfortunately for the songstress, the only enjoyable moment on Halcyon Days is the sax solo that pops in and out during her cover of Alt-J’s Tessellate. Even DJ Fresh can’t save this re-release from dreariness.

Hailing from the Peak District, and with a taste for the macabre, The Guardian have already heralded this punk bluesrock duo as ‘Derbyshire’s Black Keys,’ a comparison the boys are keen to shake off: “[The Black Keys] stuff is a lot more mellow. They like their ‘oohs’ and their ‘laaa’ and their ‘heys’ – they don’t write about the morbid stuff we do.”
On answering how harmonious it is to work with their sibling, the answer is coolly indifferent: “I could never work on music in a serious way with other people apart from Rory, so we just stick to playing together.”
But while their lyrics may often strike listeners as spookish, Drenge claim that inspiration is snatched from all around them: YouTube, on the bus, on the street. “I try and obscure it and make it seem less real, or attempt to be funny about it.” Explains Eoin: “I don’t know though, noone’s ever said our songs are funny.” Drenge saw their first single ‘Bloodsports’ released in early March, an underground hit that went on to receive airtime on Radio One.

The Thing about Pharrell The boy that’s voiced your Summer.
“ ‘Ery body get up!” the first words of 2013’s second-biggest smash hit Blurred Lines. Then the beat drops, the heavy electric keys. In the video . . . the milky good looks, the truck-stop jaw, and above, one of the more striking gazes that popular culture has come across in many a decade. Then he’s loud, he’s live, and he’s wailing, ‘Whoooo!’ he screams. (The piercing cry of a boy more familiar to yesteryear cool than the finely stitched All-Star of a Converse pump) He’s back: Pharrell Williams. The single moves swiftly on from the year’s earlier No. 1 smash, the immortally enjoyable Get Lucky, and incidentally, another Pharrell production. Rather a few G’s in the bank one would guess this year for the boy from Virginia. Blurred Lines has catapulted into the top-ten of a staggering 21 countries!
But less of that, to the song. With Robin Thicke providing the song’s soul and T.I. its silk, Pharrell might rather naively be seen as something of a sideshow bandwagon-er. Hijacking its hook with the odd impromptu wail and handclap. But there is something more in the physical presence of Pharrell that lends to the single a certain, shall we say, “gravitas.” And this is far from fictional. Take the backing guest vocals. Pharrell hardly harmonises a note, but his faded out banshee cries and his unmistakable imprint of Neptunes born production blister along the scratchy suave of the single. Simply sumptuous. And it all works. And he’s voiced your summer, whether you like it or not!

Babyshambles
Alex Thorp catches up with drummer Drew. turning up at my flat in east London with After two successful albums, several fall outs and career-threatening drug addictions, Babyshambles have made as much noise with their guitars as they have in the pages of the national tabloids. The indie-rock band, which formed in London a decade ago, received critical acclaim for their LPs Down In Albion and Shotter’s Nation, while garnering a raucous army of die-hard fans in the process. Although songs such as Killamangiro and Albion may not be the most familiar to many, the name of Babyshambles’ frontman – a certain Mr Peter Doherty – is likely to strike more resonance. A self-confessed drug addict, Peter Doherty has featured heavily in the nation’s tabloid newspapers and has been labelled everything from a junkie to a genius. But after a brief hiatus, Peter, bassist Drew McConnell, guitarist Mik Whitnall and new drummer Jamie Morrison have returned with a new Babyshambles’ record, entitled Sequel To The Prequel. Speaking about the band’s decision to make another album, Drew said: “I think we all felt it coming. Around December time (last year), Peter started
an acoustic guitar at 1am, as he tends to do. Then we started writing songs together and by January I started making a habit of travelling to Paris to visit Peter at his place. By March we thought, ‘we’ve got 20-odd songs here, this could make a record’.” This fresh period of creative productivity has provided welcome respite in a band which has been through its fair share of ups and downs. So what is life as one quarter of Babyshambles actually like? “It’s certainly turbulent. There is the occasional moment where you get the sign from the captain to fasten your seatbelts,” said Drew. “But we’re grown men and we can take a bit of jostling. I’ve never expected being part of this band to be a permanent thing but I’ve never expected it to be a temporary thing either.”
“I learnt very quickly to not to have expectations and that way anything great that happens is very exciting.” Drew’s outlook on life and music was undoubtedly affected two years ago, after he was knocked off his bike in a nearly
fatal road accident. It was pretty serious. I broke my spine in three places and I was very nearly paralysed. “Three of the vertebrae were broken – one was smashed into smithereens. A lot of the little shards damaged my central nervous system and it took them around nine hours to pick all of them out. I broke five ribs, my shoulder, my arm, my leg, my knee. I’ve got metal in my knee and spine. There was some pretty serious internal haemorrhaging and I was in hospital for five weeks and couldn’t walk for two months.” “I think it helped me re-calibrate, you know, press the re-start button. It happened and it was one of those things that reminded me that life can spin on a dime. It definitely made me reappraise my life and my priorities and it has definitely given me a fresh injection of creativity.” Following the accident, Drew moved to the Costa del Silencio (or Coast of Silence) in Tenerife to recuperate. Once there, it didn’t take long for the musician to pick up a guitar and write new material, which would go on to form his side project, Helsinki. “It was maybe three months after the accident when I could just about hobble. I spent a couple of months there (in Tenerife) and found that playing guitar cleared my mind of the pain and I wrote a bunch of songs. Some of them turned up on the Helsinki record, called the Coast of Silence, and some of them appear on the new Babyshambles record.” It has been claimed that the enigmatic, yet volatile Doherty is one of the reasons for the temperamental nature of the band. But Drew knows a different man to the one portrayed in the papers. “The main thing
about Peter is that he is very, very funny,” Drew said. “Remember when you went to school and there was that one guy in class that pretty much anything he said made people laugh? He’s like that. He’s one of those guys who sees the funny side of everything and I’m naturally drawn to people who make me laugh. “Beyond his omnipresent sense of humour I’d say he’s one of the most intelligent people I’ve ever met. As he said, ‘clever ain’t wise’. He’s fooled and he makes some bad decisions, but we all make bad decisions now and again.” The persistent negative media coverage which followed Peter during his lowest points has a lot to answer for, insists his bassist.“A lot of the media attention he receives, he is affected by. Any journalists reading this, you do have a massive effect on what you write about people, certainly about large artists or sensitive characters.” In an industry dominated by pop and dance music, Babyshambles’ third record hasn’t quite captured everyone’s imagination. Sequel To The Prequel, which was released on September 2, debuted 10th in the iTunes album chart; Drew is incredibly proud of his band’s work. “I think it’s got elements of both of the first two records. It has the psychosis of the first one and the song writing nous of the second one but I think it also extends into other directions. The arrangements are perhaps a little more considered, with more attention to detail and I feel like we’ve still got a lot to say.”
“We’re still what Britain sounds like in 2013.” Alex Thorp.
FILM & TV. Breaking
Bad Rob O’Connor.
Everyones favourite anti hero, Walter White, from AMC’s award winning TV drama Breaking Bad, is back and better than ever; or maybe that’s the result of the 11 month mid season break talking. No this half of the final season has definitely stepped up a notch. Elephant sized muck is hitting industrial fans. Gravelly macho conversations are taking place between gangsters in family restaurants. And Albuqueque, New Mexico, has returned to our lives. Breaking Bad has already got pride of place alongside The Wire and The Sopranos as ‘the most recommended tv shows in social situations’ with people almost driving you home to get you to start watching. Now, the final batch of episodes are airing it has the chance to pip it’s title contenders at the post with a “satisfying” and “conclusive” ending. One of the most eagerly awaiting endings in television history. This concluding half of the series is delivering all you would expect from what is promised to be the final series. The series seems rejuvenated; you can tell the end is coming, conviction, urgency, conflict and pace all ramped up for what is going to be an explosive finale. Will law and punishment catch up with the ever elusive Heisenberg.
Season 5 pt 2 Following the standard lifespan of most TV and Film anti-heros the end doesn’t look too promising for Walt. After witnessing his rise to power from wet, overlooked high school chemistry Mr. White in the pilot, to the all-powerful drug lord Heisenburg, it’s understandable to want to see Walt end alive. But the truth is, these characters types don’t often live happily ever after… Things didn’t end too well for Tony Montana in Scarface. Walt’s friends are disappearing and enemies are multiplying, with only the last episode left, and the huge ‘new toy’ he is seen purchasing in the flash forward at the start of the last episode of the first half of season five (if you can remember that long ago)… I don’t think it’s going to be the cancer that ends it all.
The Walking Dead
Sam Papworth.
With the first half of Season 3 setting the bar so high, and the second half coming to a very anti climatic end, I for one am hoping for a more balanced run throughout. And after watching the new season 4 trailer, it looks like we won’t be disappointed.
Season 4
The trailer shows a lot of action (the more the better) and new people, with the introduction of a new main character from the Comics, Bob Stookey. Walkers are shown as more of a threat with the previously seen ‘herds’ (end of season 2) becoming a regular problem. The meaty trailer raises a lot of questions, who is sabotaging the prison? And when
will we be seeing the Governor? Around the 2 minute mark, we see Tyreese looking pretty distraught at something out of shot, could it be his sisters zombified corpse? For me thats too obvious. This trailer creates a lot of speculation and too many questions to discuss but one thing is for sure it looks awesome. Now all we have to do is hibernate for the next 3 months so we don’t have to bare the wait. The Walking Dead Season 4 returns (in America atleast) on October 13th.

Joey Quince. Escape the hustle of the Westfield’s de Lux offering this Autumn and cozy-up to the Quad. Showing recent releases as well as more independent, avant-garde offerings, the Quad and its generous student discount, central location and artistic ambience is sure to lure moviebuffs young and old. We at DENT. came expecting the cliché of independent cinema to hit us plum in the face – a room like theatre, boxy chairs, screen the size of a post-stamp – but to our surprise came a modern, quirky experience like no other! Externally, the building’s lavish and lulling, nocturnally lit colours and crisp architectural lines summon up a cool yet ravishing portrait of modern cityscape Derby. Located before the older, historical marketplace building, and adjacent to the recently revamped and equally modern Council House, the Quad was one of the first babies to be born at the onset of Derby’s £1 billion regeneration.

Top Gear Take on UK Bungee Jessica Cooke.
UK Bungee travels 5,000 miles to South Africa to bungee jump a car at the top gear festival in Durban, South Africa. You’ve travelled over 5,000 miles to be here. The arena is a blur of heat, lights and crowds of cheering fans. You and your other motor car fanatics have already tucked in to a display of motocross stunts, precision drivers, fire, pyrotechnics and of course, very fast cars. This is the 2013 Top Gear festival in Durban, South Africa . . . and you’ve seen nothing yet! Sasha Martinengo, a South African presenter, is behind the wheel of a Nissan Micra, 80 metres up in the air on a crane specially designed by UK Bungee to take on Top Gear’s most incredible stunt yet: bungee jumping a car! Jeremy Clarkson’s mirth-filled voice fills the stadium: “So, Sasha... Feeling nervous?” The audience laughs and cheers. “Sasha,” he continues. “That crane is set to hold 80 kg. How much do you weigh?” “85,” replies Sasha. “Hmm,” Clarkson muses. “Is there any chance you could lose 5 kilos whilst you’re up there?” More laughs and cheers. Sasha looks nervously at the camera and proclaims “I don’t see this going well!”… before putting his foot down on the pedal and driving the faithful Nissan Micra into mid-air, 80 metres above the captivated crowd... Held at the Kyalami race circuit in South Africa, over 60,000 people attend nine shows. The tenth, and the grand finale, had to be something spectacular. Andy Ridell, Jumpmaster for UK bungee, reminisced with DENT. on his role in this ludicrous experiment. What was it like being contacted by Top Gear? Over the years we’ve had many crazy ideas that have
been pitched to us. We were first contacted by Top Gear in 2011 to ask if we would bungee jump a car after a few raised eyebrows and a lot of laughing, we decided, that yes, in fact - we could! What was the atmosphere like in the arena when the car was lifted up by the crane? It must have been electric. The atmosphere was pretty electric throughout the entire show - the audience had already seen fast cars, stunt drivers, fire and pyrotechnics so they didn’t need much winding up. But, when that car was released, it was surreal. I could hear every single gasp and cheer from 80 metres up in the air. The fall was designed to look as though the car went fatally close to the ground so when the car neared the ground, everyone went silent for a split second. So, in all respect, how does one bungee jump a car?! To put it simply, it’s the same as bungee jumping a person - a 6000 kg person! A bungee is fairly simple. You first measure the weight of the person and then you have to calculate the amount of force to stop them from falling. All we have to do is attach enough elastic to them in order to provide this force, but not too much or they will stop too quickly. So, the testing of a bungee is a case of replacing a person with a weight so as to test each bungee rope to its maximum capacity.

What was it like getting to hang out with the Top Gear lot? Any good stories? It’s like one big family - everyone is friendly, happy to help each other despite being under pressure themselves. There is a continual buzz of excitement and pressure across the team. But despite the pressure, there wouldn’t be one night where you wouldn’t see people relaxing and laughing about the day in the hotel, with a bottle of beer.
How was Sasha in this whole experience? Sasha was an absolute star! You could tell he was nervous but also loving it at the same time, a real showman. The crowd loved him also and roared as soon as he got out of the car when it was landed. He was a great guy to work with, very relaxed under pressure.
So, what was the highlight of your stay in South Africa? The highlight was by far the release of the car bungee, once all the pressures of getting it set up had paid off. Driving a McLaren MP4 closely follows, though, that was pretty exciting!
Were there any special preparations Sasha had to undergo before jumping the car? Yes, wear a helmet! No, there was also a neck brace and harness. But that was pretty much it.

About Time: Film Release
“He’s done it again. Brilliant and Heart-warming”
in time! This cleverly injected dose of magical realism lends to the film an engaging canvass to which the myriad intricacies of life’s journey play out.
DENT. just got back from watching this month’s most talked about film, About Time. Director Richard Curtis has created another knock out to add to his success, following on from big names Bridget Jones’ Diary, Notting Hill and Love Actually.
So to sum up – the flick is a quintessentially clever British rom-com to add to Curtis’s canon. So get ready to be gripped from the outset. We laughed, cried, smiled and swooned at this heart-warming, feel-good film.
Those that have seen the latter will remember the whit and extravagance played by Bill Nighy, and he’s still giving! The cool, soft nature of his character, and the relationship portrayed between him and his onscreen son Tim (Domhnall Gleeson) is lovely, added to by the occasional wit and magnificently elucidated expletives – hilarious.

DVDs Reviews
The film really does have an all round tenderness to it a lot like Notting hill. A 21 year old dude, going to London alone to become a lawyer, meeting the ‘girl next door’ – only to become blissfully happy with a growing family. All very cliché, right? Well...you would think so, until you find out Tim can travel

JJ Abrams has yet again out done himself. The latest Star Trek film is a spectacular display of CGI meeting a great plot. You dont have to be a trekky to appreciate this box office hit.
Vin Diesel does what he does best in FF6, create an action packed movie that allows the audience to forget the laws of physics from time to time. Depsite the dodgey stunts this is definately an easy watch.

This zombie thriller is up there with the best films of the year. With on-the-edge-of-your-seat suspense from the get go Brad Pitt has made a simply fantastic movie. With minimal gore and breathtaking visuals this is a film I simply insist you go out and buy.
FASHION. Copy The Catwalk Creative Head ‘IT GIRL 2013’ winner Angel Montague-Sayers lowers her scissors and spends some time bringing us her hair-styling trends straight from this Fall’s runway. This fall, it feels as though the seasons are merging! Wonderful wet looks, traditionally showcased in the summer months, are continuing through into a cool, autumn look. Dolce and Gabbana offered arguably the strongest trend of the year and one sure to be imitated on the street: the weather beaten 1960s beehive. Crown accessories like headbands, jewel-clips and florals create a regal and royal feel. Go for subtle, carefree blow-dries like the girls at Burberry Prorsum and Christopher Kane. These are simple, breeze-friendly styles. Copy Chloe and Ralph Lauren this autumn to bring order to your styling with low ponytails and deep side partings. By contrast, use Fendi as inspiration and add some colour to the proceedings with multi-coloured Mohawks.

Badger & Kingdom READY, ‘SETT’, GO! Inspired by the British wildlife - and more curiously it seems, badgers - Badger & Kingdom have hit the ground running this year. Already with sold out lines and solid shelf space in some of the hippest cobbled corner street shops of Sheffield, this independent clothing brand has gone from strength to strength and is now burrowing south into Derby. The company has only been trading since March, but is already in the process of

Queerhawk. Their gig is that they seek to embrace individuality, and boy is it that. This rather colourful brand is the baby of Charlotte Golding - a self proclaimed Queerhawk! - and has already been spotted in London’s Brick Lane, V-Fest and her own native streets of Suffolk. The first line in her Alice in Wonderland scoffing a packet of Lovehearts inspired clothing includes a range of unisex T-shirts.

Tattoos are now more popular than they’ve ever been. Just walk down the street and you’re bound to see dozens of people who decided for one reason or another, to get themselves “inked.” I chart the trends that masochists love to inflict on their fleshy hides!
Sleeves Calf Pieces Chest Portraits
Tattoos Lucy Thorpe.
Ever popular with tattoo enthusiasts; they look great, are effervescent of youth, and are a challenge for artists. However, they’re gonna cost you a buck or two! If you’re willing to pay for it, you’ll be left with an ink-redible piece of art. ...are becoming increasingly popular. Most feature floral patterns or stars in a chain stretching upward from ankle to knee. Other, more intricate designs feature art with profound meanings to the individual. One for the more introspective of you males. Two slabs of pectoral muscle are often the canvass for shaded faces, odes to children, or declarations of unfathomable love (misguided, temporary or otherwise!). Yep, I know, David Beckham: the man who singlehandedly has spawned more Christ-like spines than the Pope himself. But it’s a classic look that gives the wearer a profoundly devout persona. Many other designs are intricate and feature Celtic style patterns – these are simple designs that make statements.
Sacred Backs Tyson Faces
In the midst of The Hangover franchise, I doubt many have actually been inspired to plaster great Maori markings over their temple, but jeez, we’d want one just for the sheer unbridled hilarity!

Run by Ben. He is as mad as a hatter, but he knows tattoos like the back of his hand. His artwork gallery features intricate designs and shows the work of a true artist. Ben may have little patience with people, but he has all the time in the world to dedicate to giving people amazing tattoos.
CROW
Great Northern Road, Derby
Considered one of the best studios in the county - and with an impressive clientele too. Some famous people, including old ging’ Ed Sheeran, have rumoured to have been inked there. With an artwork gallery of high acclaim, this is all in all a great studio!

Run by Lee Etherington based in the heart of the city centre. Fashionable, enduring, and staffed by experienced artists with an impressive record for solid tattoos.

60’s Pastels This year we’re not giving in to autumn, time to stretch summer out! It’s time to get back into our pastels and break through the dull doom of autumn.
And with the 60’s in trend, there’s no better time. We need to get out those lacy dresses, those woolly socks and over-sized jackets, impart a little summer subtlety, and show winter just where to go! And with sixties pastels being very in this season, no need to buy a whole new winter wardrobe. Instead just recycle some spring/summer season favourites. Fabulous!

Grand Theft Auto: 5 So what’s it going to be... partying every night in Fresher’s? Or becoming a violent gangster in your underpants? That’s right; Grand Theft Auto is finally here! It’s been 5 years and what a long wait it’s been. Grand Theft Auto finally returns and it’s bigger than ever. Much bigger in fact, the new Los Santos map is bigger than that of GTA IV, San Andreas and Red Dead Redemption combined. So, such a big world to play in you’ll need a big character to take on the criminal underworld and the cops. You’ll need three in fact, as the new installment of GTA allows you to take control of three new characters in the series. The cast of vagabonds include: Michael (a former bank robber), Trevor (a sleazy trailer park criminal) and Franklin
22 www.dentmag.com
(an ex-street gangster). Character switching allows you to seamlessly switch between all 3 of the cast to cause as much devastation as possible during missions. The release date of this highly anticipated game has fallen into fresher’s fortnight. So what’s it going to be: skip a few nights on the tiles to really sink your teeth in this contender for game of the year? Or save it for your inevitable week long hang over? Whichever you choose you’ll be sure that this is going to be one of best games to play this year. Better than Red Dead Redemption? You’ll just have to pick up a copy to find out.

Video Wars: Vine Vs Instagram
In the application world there is a fight for supremacy. A fight to control the Video based social media market, but who is winning? First there was Vine, a simple app allowing the user to take 6.5 second cinematic stabs at what ever they could see. This brought about #Remakes, #Loops, #Selfies and even the #JustPlainStupid, entertaining the Homefeed up and down your screen. It has found new international comedy talent with the likes of Brittany Furlan and Rudi Mancuso racking up a 3 million followers between them. With the ability to record and pause with the tap of a finger it has allowed user to create snappy shots to keep you amused for hours.
Not too long ago, the infamous Instagram introduced its video function causing a stir amongst users of both apps. It boasts longer time limits and filters to get your videos looking as good as your photos. You could say that Instagram has taken all the minor faults of Vine and turned it into their own, offering video editing and image stabilization. However, some may argue that Instagram have tried to copy Vine, some say that it’s the harsh world of business. Furthermore I feel that there probably wouldn’t be Vine without the original success of Instagram. Both have their influences. Despite Instagram videos having more functions, like posting your creation on more social media platforms, it just doesn’t feel right. Instagram is by far the most commonly used photography app across the world and it should stay like that. Flicking between stills and shorts on its feed can become too much to handle. You know where you stand with the application when they do what they do best. And if you want both… then just buggar off to Snapchat.

Britain’s Brilliant Summer of Success Joey Quince.
From the courts of Wimbledon to the corners of Oz, British sport, as the Empire of old, has sailed upon the crest of a wave and into a Golden Age. I know what you might be thinking: “We are actually winning things? But we’re British?” Indeed. Well it seems that hosting the Olympic Games a year ago has inspired an upturn of success. A Golden Age in every sense of the word, whose legacy we saw only as a post-stamp of Olympic rhetoric. Apparently, it was all foreseen... We take a look at our champions home and away who took the all-too-often cliché of us Brits as ‘plucky losers’ and squashed it beneath their Hunter wellywearing boots:
Cycling
After plundering 12 Olympic medals from this two-wheeled madness in 2012, (including 8 golds!) Chris Froome – Wiggins’ protégé – carried on the good work and painted our own red, white and blue over the streets of Paris yet again in 2013’s Tour de France.
Tennis
One sodden Scotsman by the name of Andy Murray fooled us all and secured the famous Wimbledon trophy against world number one Novak Djokovic, becoming the first British man to taste glory at SW19 since Fred Perry in 1936 and following on from an earlier U.S.Open triumph. Clearly, Murray’s gold in the games provided him with a proverbial ‘boot.’
Cricket
Somewhere amongst pitchers of Pimms, lobster red faces and warbling Barmy Army anthems, an Alistair Cook-led England team came good again – retaining the Ashes in emphatic style with ball and bat. Hardly surprising really, in recent years the Aussies have had more chance of a White Christmas than any hopes of returning the urn to their sticky shores!
Rugby
Every 4 years a British and Irish Lions tour hits the southern hemisphere. This time it was Australia’s turn over the best of a three-test duel. And after 16 winless years, the boot of Welsh valley-wonder Leigh Halfpenny brought unbridled joy to millions of egg-chasers across the home nations.
Athletics
The illustrious Mo Farah. Not content with 10,000m and 5,000m Olympic gold, he went and did the same at the World Championships this year in Daegu. There’s more “Mobots” where that came from...
So there it is, the British. Winners.

Visions of Derby: Velodrome News The early stages of Derby’s very own velodrome have started to unfold these past couple of weeks, offering an exciting prospect for the county. The project, which is funded by Sport England and Derby City Council, saw construction start on Pride Park sparking high interest from the public. The velodrome, which will cost an eye-watering £27.5 million, will contain a 250-metre cycling track, a 12-court sports hall, a top of the range gym and spinning room as well as its very own café. The attraction towards cycling has greatly risen since the 2012 London Olympics due to Britain’s success in the field and the opportunity for future athletes

to be involved in cycling has significantly improved thanks to Derby City Councils efforts. However, the velodrome will not only satisfy the desire of people interested in cycling but for those who have a passion for music and entertainment. The arena will have a secondary purpose of hosting concerts and shows which will ideally ignite a Derby venue to challenge that of neighbouring Nottingham and its Capital FM Arena. The influential structure still has a fair way to go until its completion, which is expected to be the fall of 2014, but Derbyshire is certainly set to profit from the structure in more ways than one.

If you’re reading this, then keep at it you champion, you’re in for a surprise! Now is the time for DENT. Magazine to teach you how to take a handful of effort, combine it with some healthier lifestyle choices and hold your hand as your shown how to look and feel incredible (but mainly look sexy as hell with no clothes on) - Without making you miserable because you’re having to miss out on all of the good stuff in life!
Get ou & get t o with it n .
Being healthy or in good shape isn’t just for a select few gym boffins, meat heads or professional athletes who have the spare time, money and minerals to keep up a strict training and diet regime ... BEING FIT IS FOR EVERYONE, but only if you want it. Unlike a lot of sports that require bags of genuine talent, training and technique (all of which can take years to develop and a lifetime to perfect) - getting in shape will never ask anything more from you than the DESIRE to want to better yourself.
The first and hardest thing to do is start! Don’t sit around and use the same old ‘I’ll do it tomorrow’ excuse!! Whether you work 7 days a week, go to university, have lots of coursework, don’t drive or have to make sure your boozy Nana is put to bed by 7 o’clock so that she isn’t arrested blah blah flippin’ blah - you need to get a gym membership and grow a pair of stones! What I’m trying to tell you is that: If you want something done then GO AND DO IT!! You want to be in shape for your summer holiday that’s just around the corner - then what are you waiting for? Whether you already gym but don’t know what the heck you’re
doing, you’re lacking motivation, you just don’t know what or how to eat properly or whatever your reasons for not being in shape already, DENT. Magazine’s fitness guru is here to show you how to replace FAT with FIT in a maintainable way to suit your lifestyle - and you’re going to love it baby! At times - it will be tough, it will take extra effort, you will sweat and ache and make weird noises as you struggle in the gym but you can’t make a cake without cracking eggs I’m afraid. You just have to take the rough with the smooth, be consistent, dig deep and the results will be phenomenal!

Team News:
Derby If you’re hoping to keep active and try something new this academic year, then why not join the winners of Team Derby’s 2012-13 “Best New Club”? Hailed as “America’s First game” or “The Creator’s game”, Lacrosse owes its roots to Native American tribes such as the Iroquois, who remain a formidable opponent even in today’s game. In its short years, Lacrosse was seen as not a game, but “The little
brother of war”; meaning that games were used to settle land and tribal disputes as a form of ritualistic battle. This intense spirit is still demonstrated in the game’s fast paced and hard hitting nature. With ten players on the field on each side, a Lacrosse line-up is comprised of three attackers, three mid-fielders, three defensemen and a single goalkeeper. The objective is to score into the other team’s six foot by six foot goal over the
course of four, fifteen minute quarters. Of course, this is done while avoiding the body checks of the other team. We are also lucky enough to have a Women’s team, who incorporate a less physical style of play but emphasis more fluid passing and agility based tactics. The balance of men and women allow our team to be involved in mixed friendly games with other universities; fixtures we aim to announce soon.

STUDENT. I’m No Einstein, But I Love Energy DENT. Editor Joey Quince charts the rise in a new curious, clinical addiction: that of the ENERGY DRINK! Not to come across as the harbinger of bad news, but fast-forward six months or so... go on. When all the candyland of the academic year will be nearing an end. Disappearing in heady memories that trail like kites in a wind. Fancy dress parties will be in a period of stasis, the BUCS sport leagues all but finished. All manner of old props and odds ‘n’ ends: toga sheets, lensless glasses, pirate patches and plastic swords; leggings and socks knotted up and cast to the corner of a collapsing cupboard, never to be found. Your landlord will be knocking on your door, threatening you with an iron pipe to settle unpaid rent The academic calendar is in a state of limbo, an interlude, you might call it. For now is the time of ‘the jam,’ when exams loom ponderously on the midland horizon and assignment deadlines anchor you to your laptop so feverishly throughout each day and night to get the damn thing finished, your fingers end up looking like the remnants of a packet of Twiglets. Okay, so I’m not Dynamo. And perhaps your own particular £9,000 a term education will be respected more than memories of my own, but I can bet there is one universal component we can all agree on, this interlude is fuelled in the main by ENERGY DRINKS. Yes: caffeine Smack ‘Eds and junkies. Sure, you new-wave addicts will scoff at such an interrogation: “Pffft! I like a good energy drink as much as the next person, but I ain’t no addict!” Well... actually... you are... if the following occurs: - You’re writing your philosophy dissertation whilst eating afternoon doused with a splash of Red Bull. - You collect the cans for whatever reason and have around a thousand but think you need more... to complete the collage which is becoming desperately more important than any coursework on your plate. - You step out of the door and sweat profusely because you haven’t seen off a can of Monster to commence the morning.
In some quarters, universities are actually even deploying counsellors to help socalled ‘caffeine-addicts.’ Symptoms are rumoured to be excessive paranoia, the shakes, severe anxiety. Are they not just clinically depressed? Quite possibly. I came across a few at uni in my time that were morose one minute, manic the next. It seems to me a surreal inversion of the welfare system. No wonder Cameron’s Tory chums are simultaneously mounting their battalions against both the lower-class and the price of tuition fees. Not just a bulging, shiny face is old Cammy. He saw the blurring lines as clearly as I do now, and twisted his Eton or Oxford printed knickers until fees were trebled as a form of social cleansing. Still, there’s no doubt that crushed energy cans are a permanent fixture in campus libraries up and down the country, particularly at this time of year. The sight of green-tinged teeth and tongues that accompany a smile seem to prophesise a coming plague. And as one who never fell prey to the addiction, I never understood the allure of them anyway. It seemed like drinking liquid plutonium; this toxic green waste that belongs in Mr Burns’ Springfield energy plant. Perhaps that is the premise behind Fox’s phenomenally successful The Walking Dead series, and why it is so popular with students - as some socio-political indictment of our future. That must be it! Yes! Fox you’ve been cracked... That gurgling sound which accompanies your typical intrepid Zombie - that sound isn’t an innate desire to tear our flesh off, or the impersonation of a girl with well-practised oral skills - instead it’s just your average Zomb savouring the most of a splash of Red Bull! And so I wait with bated - energy infused - breath as to our impending doom, but know secretly that the monopolising force of Red Bull and Monster and other energy liquid giants and their market of students, is something to be feared.

Fresher Status:
REVOKED
The dreaded ‘second-season syndrome.’ A sporting cliché never more apt as a transferable proverb when considering your second year. The first year allows you a settling down period, which is why it doesn’t really count towards your degree. Leaving this lovely protective bubble can of course be hair-raisingly daunting.
First years’ all-nighters in the library are sneered at by the red-eyed third year, who has just spent the last 36 hours drinking coffee, finishing their dissertation and hating everyone and everything. The collective thought, “You only need 40%, what the hell are doing here taking up space?”lingers silently in the air. But now that shield of comfort has broken, so what happens? There are many bright sides to this. With the amount of negative press students get in the news, you’d be forgiven for thinking that all first years are moral vacuums whose only interest is to gulp several buckets of jagerbombs to the tune of “down it fresher” and sleep with anything with a pulse. But this is exactly why some of us are looking forward to hanging up their ‘fresher’ hat and escaping the stereotype. It becomes expected of a post-fresher to capably balance work and play, to transition from a naïve, albeit drunken, Bambi-like ‘fresher’ into something more . . . mature!

READING.
The Art of Speed Reading
Lauren Clark.
Read with Speed
Retaining information can be a frustrating task when thirty books sit waiting to be read and there are a million other things you’d rather be doing. We’ve all read something only to have to read it again… and again just to get the gist of what we need to know. Reading should be enjoyable, it should be interesting and informative but often there is just too much excessive information on the page and our brains decide to give up, pack up and go on holiday. Well, fear not, there are techniques that can help you to read information quickly and make it stick.
You may have been told in the past that in order to remember and understand information sufficiently you should read carefully and slowly but in actual fact the general consensus among researchers is the faster, the better. The brain works its best at 400 wpm and above - interestingly this is the speed we tend to move our fingers along the page at. Reading with speed also prevents back skipping, which is what happens when you find yourself reading the same sentence thirteen times. To stop yourself back skipping try making a concerted effort not to re-read sentences - even if you think you’ve missed something out, keep ploughing through.
Expand your Visual Capacity Usually when reading we use less than 20% of the visual capacity
available to us but it is possible to train your peripheral vision by allowing yourself to use the full range of your brains visual skills. Try holding the page further away than normal, allowing your peripheral vision to see the page clearer, to review what you’ve already read and preview what’s to come. You may also find that holding the text further away doesn’t tire your eyes as much, making you able to read for longer.
Concentrate Many of us have become accustomed to having the radio, television or facebook on while reading. Though it may seem suspiciously quiet when it’s all turned off, get yourself used to dedicating time just for reading. You may find the material uninteresting or find it expresses views that contrast to your own; maybe the language is hard to follow and naturally your mind begins to go off on a tangent… what’s for lunch… where shall I go tonight? Even if you don’t agree with what you’re
The Cuckoo’s Calling
Bethany Serino.
Pseudonymously published, J.K.Rowling chops her hair, picks up her fake moustache and braces, and quite brilliantly fools us all! The arrival of The Cuckoo’s Calling in July, written by a mysterious Robert Galbraith, was triumphed by critics as an auspicious debut novel. Many even declaring afterwards, ‘I would never have guessed!’. What they failed to guess was of course, that the writer behind this suave whodunnit was none other than Potter-highness J K Rowling. Cormoran Strike, the novels protagonist, is that oft explored heady mix of failure, self-doubt and heroism. A figure who with others, weaves his way through a maze of seedy bars and limousines; questioning gold diggers, hipsters and lawyers in his search for the truth.
Originally written off by police and press as suicide, Strike is approached to investigate a supermodel’s death. Henceforth the mystery rolls into action; did she jump or was she pushed? There is an indelible air of magic, of mystery, and of electricity within its descriptions throughout, particularly of London. Rowling certainly still has the ability to transport a reader within a few lines, so much so, that you can almost feel the spray of London rain on your skin. Alias or not, The Cuckoo’s Calling is sure to add a few more zeros to an ever expanding bank balance.
You can find this book in Waterstones for £13.99
reading, question it, think of counter arguments – become the critic focusing on what the author has got wrong. If there are words you don’t understand, highlight them, keep reading and come back to them later if their meaning hasn’t become apparent. Though it may seem a simple method, having a comfortable chair, clear desk and a switched off phone can dramatically improve concentration. It’s also been proven that working in daylight or with a bright lamp – no iPhone lights under the sheets – also encourages the brain to focus. It’s true what they say – practice makes perfect. It’s possible to train your brain to read two lines, small paragraphs and even pages at once but even if you manage to save yourself just that extra bit of time, it’s worth a go. For further reading: Tony Buzan’s, ‘The Speed Reading Book,’ is full of exercises and useful tips.
TRAVEL.
Kilimanjaro
Charlotte Brierley.
Ibiza, Marbs, Malia…NO! DENT. fun-junkie Charlotte Brierley resists the Britabroad traps this summer as she quests to conquer Africa’s summit.
Five months ago my best friend and I sat down to discuss our summer break plans over Camembert and Merlot. The usual temptations occurred. Ibiza, Marbella; both predictably barging into our conversation with all the subtlety of a Transit van. But there was something less alluring of the vision of us both partying on the white aisle whilst swatting away swaying admirers. We had been there, done that! In truth, we were both feeling a little daring. Little did we know – until the next morning! – that in amongst that heady euphoria of alcohol and inhibition would we somehow acquire a pair of Tanzania bound return flights, a three-day safari, and (most scary of all) summit passes for Mount Kilimanjaro. Yes, that one – you know, the world’s highest free standing mountain? Gulp! In the early stages it was easy, the incentive to raise money for Cancer Research UK turned the quest from a debauched drunken prod at one’s life bucket-list into a very noble cause. And sure enough, as the weeks went by, and the proceeds poured in from friends and well-wishers in our social circles, we began to get carried away with the romanticism of it all. But I should perhaps mention that never before had I attempted to climb anything other than the stair master at
the gym. Thus, more weeks went by, and all I could think of was Kili - that looming precipice; and the seven days and 19,000ft of African mountain approximately 6000 metres above sea level that I had to climb… The optimist in me would like to tell you that from that day forward I catapulted myself into training and marking little red crosses on my calendar in unbridled excitement. But the reality was that I was positively terrified. The expedition was a mere month or two away and anxiety, it felt, was getting the best of me.
one assisted weights session each week; the crux was that strength and endurance would get me up the mountain. Sessions were tough. I had heard how even the fittest of athletes could have their aspirations destroyed by altitude sickness. To prepare for acclimatizing I increased my sessions at my local hot Yoga studio. Yoga may not sound like a typical stamina-builder, but in a heat of around 50 degrees, it would be vital in managing my airway control and physical practice in the sweltering conditions.
Finally, it was time to take action. I began to get myself mentally and physically prepared. With six weeks to go before my great outdoor adventure I hired a personal trainer and tracked down a mountaineer to take me out onto the Welsh peaks. My first climb was hard, tackling the east and west peaks over the south ridge before reaching the summit of Snowdon. But the views and the sense of achievement overcame the blisters, sweat and tiredness and I was making plans to return before we had even finished our descent. This was good news! My hunger was there.
So here I am, a day before departure, sat before my rucksack; not suitcase, packing my walking boots; not flipflops, and counting the number of thermals instead of bikinis and medi-kit rather than make-up kit that will tick off my checklist!
I wasn’t so enthusiastic about my personal training sessions. The program consisted of two high-intensity and two low-intensity workouts with
Most of all I’m looking forward to connecting with myself and the energies that’ll surround me on the mountain during the trekking hours...
What am I feeling? I have a genuine mix of emotions: I’m anxious about what to expect, I feel confident in my mental ability to support the physical challenge, and I’m excited to experience something I’ve never attempted before.
I have with... nothing but my own meandering thoughts; each step becoming my mantra. And as the hours wilt away until my adventure commences, all that’s left for me to do know is to sip a little more Merot, and choose an item to leave at the top of the mountain.

Join the
Revolucion
DENT. approached the ‘masters of rum’ themselves, Revolucion De Cuba, to try one of their DIY cocktail masterclasses. The masterclass promised 90 minutes of drink-making, demos and a history of the Havana cocktail culture! Firstly to get us started, the Cuba Libre: a staple cocktail – the world-of-rum’s equivalent of piper potatoes in your diet. Main lesson learnt? Try it with a ginger beer for a truly classic combination. Next, the Mojito: mint is a key ingredient here. To get it in your cocktail glass you’ll be best served in remembering this simple triple action – clap, rim, shove. . . Don’t think you will have any trouble laughing at that one. Daquiris: the alcoholic smoothies – Havana Club could never taste so great . . . apart from in Havana!
The masterclass also guarantees at least two drinks, but we had closer to four each, plus shots. But in the end, after an array of amateurishly attended strawberry daiquiris, rum limes and bloody mary’s that were shaken, stirred and ultimately – sunk! – we staggered out giving Revolucion De Cuba’s a well earned, but ever so slightly swaying, DENT. ‘Seal of Approval.’ Cocktail masterclasses are £25.

NIGHTLIFE. Pub Quiz Probe:
The Blessington Carriage WEDNESDAY NIGHT IS QUIZ NIGHT! DENT. went along to th weekly quiz to see what all the fuss was about. Coming up to it, ‘The Bless’ (as it’s affectionately known) just looked like any other typical pub quiz. Once inside, however, it was different. The place was awash with thematically dressed, inappropriately named, legions of students – all eager to win the week’s top prizes and most importantly, drinks vouchers.
seemed to be getting involved both inside and out in the lovely beer garden: a place to savour whenever the weather is convenient. Relaxed and casually competitive, DENT. made the most of a pre-drinking student night to enjoy the cheese-filled music, answer some hilarious quiz-questions wrongly, and to sip (no, rather gulp!) on the drinks deals they had on offer.

LISTINGS. The collision of two giants...
Nottingham Forrest Vs Derby County
Saturday 28th September, City Ground, Nottingham Okay, so Derby County locking horns with Nottingham Forest is not the El Clasico, or indeed a rivalry of global stature – but in the East Midlands it’s all that counts! Yes, Derby County’s Rams take on bitter foes Nottingham Forest in a contest where either side of the A52 shuts down to lay siege to one another all in the name of a shared and lauded hero – a certain Brian Clough. Both clubs and cities will be looking to add a further 3 points to what has been an positive start to both of their campaigns, but at stake too is the element of pride. In a historic rivalry that stretches all the way back to the 1st October 1892, this is often a heated contest due to the mere 14 miles that separates both cities. With Nottingham Forest holding a slender lead in the victory tally – boasting 36 wins to the Rams’ 33 – no doubt Derby will be looking to close the gap and overthrow their adversaries at the City Ground on Saturday 28th September screened live on SkySports. And with the last mate ending in a 1-1 draw, there is plenty at stake.
Miles Kane
If you cant make it across the Trent then get yourselves in front a large screen this September with a tasty beverage in toe and prepare for war – East Midland style!
