British scientists ‘invent artificial petrol’ that could cost just 90p per Gallon (and there’s no carbon) • Hydrogen-based fuel produces no greenhouse gases so could help nations slash their carbon footprint • It is due to be available at the pumps in three to five years Artificial petrol that costs 19p per litre could be on forecourts in as little as three years. British scientists are refining the recipe for a hydrogen-based fuel that will run in existing cars and engines at the fraction of the cost of conventional petrol. With hydrogen at its heart rather than carbon, it will not produce any harmful emissions when burnt, making it better for the environment, as well as easier on the wallet. The first road tests are due next year and, if all goes well, the cut-price ‘petrol’ could be on sale in three to five years. Professor Stephen Bennington, the project’s lead scientist, said: ‘In some senses, hydrogen is the perfect fuel. It has three times more energy than petrol per unit of weight, and when it burns, it produces nothing but water. “Our new hydrogen storage materials offer real potential for running cars, planes and other vehicles that currently use hydrocarbons.” Continued on page 43

Dear Readers

Health & Beauty Pandas

6 7

As spring has truly arrived, the buzz, colour and bird song is something to be very cheerful about and one thing, for sure, the winter has not been a particularly cheerful time. I do not know if it is just me getting older and apparently as you get older you get grumpy, so I am told, but I am increasingly becoming of the view that I want to avoid the media and the news, particularly on the television. The news headlines seem to be repeated far too often, the emphasis of the news is distorted, exaggerated and extreme.

Cover photo: Moyan Brenn

For garden lovers all over, this time is exciting and there is much to look forward to as things grow at an extraordinary rate - a wonderful time. The British are also very good at supporting charity and this month I would like to mention A1 Williams and their March and April support for the BBC Children in Need Appeal. This support is also running in May so with A1 Williams you can receive a discount on removal costs and they will also donate to the BBC WILLIAMS REMOVALS appeal - Good reasons to use them if you are moving!

in association with

Unit 4, 13 Cobham Rd Ferndown Industrial Estate Wimborne Dorset BH21 7PE Tel: 01202 874207 Email: mail@sandandgravel.uk.com Last month..... .... I said April was the month for daffodils – what do I know? Only my late flowering varieties made it into April, the others were all over by the end of March. Monty Don said Springs are getting earlier slowly but surely, which makes it very difficult for organisers of occasions like Tulip Festivals. Pashley Manor in Sussex holds such a festival and this year it’s the first week in May. They have 22,000 blooms, but will they still be in flower? I was amazed to see a few of my bluebells out in March. It’s usually mid May when I visit Kingston Lacey to be entranced and uplifted by the sight and smell of the intense blue carpet in the woods there. How lucky we are to live in Dorset! The garden visiting season is with us and there are plenty in the NGS Yellow Book – five in Wimborne alone. I love to visit villages when they open their gardens together, with the bonus of refreshments in the village hall and plant sales. The very best place to buy plants of course is the Spring Plant Sale on Saturday, 14th May at 2.30 p.m. in Colehill Memorial Hall – most of the plants are grown by Hardy Plant Society members so you can find unusual plants at bargain prices.

Wild Woodland Flowers Many wild flowers are at the peak of their blossom in May, so it is the perfect time to take a walk in the woods and enjoy this colourful display.

Dartford warbler.

Photo: Colin Smith

The much-loved bluebell is for many people the essence of spring. Bluebells form a dazzling purple-blue carpet across ancient woodland, their bell shaped flowers appearing from late April to June. Bluebells can be a dominant species, covering most of the woodland ground, and they also grow in meadows and hedgerows.Although common and widespread, they have been in decline in recent years due to habitat loss and competition with the non-native Spanish Bluebell. The lesser celandine flowers earlier than the bluebells and ramsons, but is still around in May with its cheerful, buttercup-yellow flowers. It is an important early source of nectar and pollen for bumblebees and can make a cheerful yellow carpet through a wood in April. These and other woodland flowers such as the wood anemone create a spectacular display. Make sure not to miss it, as they mostly bloom for a short period only, before the tree canopies above fill in, blocking out the sunlight.

The business which is owned and run by local couple Clive Coldwell and Angela Lowe specialise in kitchen makeovers by replacing old doors and drawers with new made to measure ones from their extensive range of colours and designs, often at up to half the cost, less hassle and the time of fitting a completely new kitchen. New kitchens and a full design service can also be provided as required. Clive commented “We are very pleased to have our showroom in Broadstone, and already there has been a significant amount of activity and we have been made very welcome by the general public and all the other traders in Broadstone. We believe that not only do we offer a high quality service but we also ensure that we offer a friendly face to our customers.

Antioxidant Screening OPEN DAY on SATURDAY 14TH MAY Call us for more information or to book a 30 Minute Individual Screening

We are excited to announce a new Antioxidant Screening Programme as part of the services we offer to address your overall healthcare. Knowing your antioxidant level is as important as knowing your cholesterol levels, or your blood pressure. Current medical literature suggests that antioxidants can decrease your risk of cancer, heart disease, and complications related to diabetes. Antioxidants can slow down the ageing process, boost your immune system, and speed recovery times while decreasing pain and inflammation. Since most people do not eat 913 servings of fruits and vegetables daily, it is now recommended that we take a supplement that can provide optimal nutritional support and effectively raise your overall antioxidant level. I have survived my own major health challenges and wondered whether this new screening programme could further help. It comprises a quick, painless and non invasive scan – and with a money back guarantee if your score does not go up after following the programme. I decided to put this to the test and despite having a fairly high level of nutrition; I was pleasantly surprised to discover that the antioxidant programme undertaken increased my level to a significantly higher score. I am now pleased to be able to offer the Screening Programme to you at my clinic. Please contact us for news of our open days in May and June when you can find out how our Screening programme can help you.

01202 870196

In his book, “What They Don’t Teach You at Harvard Business charliehaddon@actioncoach.com School,” Mark McCormak made an interesting discovery about the 1979 graduating MBA class. Within the group, 3% had written goals, 13% had thought of some goals and the balance were just thrilled to be out of school ! The interesting part was what happened ten years later. Here are the results of their success after a decade: The group that had non-written goals were making TWICE in the field compared to the 84% of those who had no goals leaving Harvard. The group with written goals was making TEN TIMES what the other 97% were making on average. It seems likely that people at Harvard have a long history of knowing what they are doing. So if the top 3% were able to make TEN TIMES what everyone else was by simply writing out their goals, why aren’t you doing it? We are already through the hardest part of the ‘recession’, and yet people and businesses are still worried that our economic situation is dire. Resolutions made at the beginning of the year may be starting to fade - if they haven’t already. But who says making and keeping resolutions is just for the beginning of a year. Why wait? Make sure that one of the resolutions you set and keep right now is to make a strong plan for yourself and your business; ALL ANGLES PLUMBING ones with enough detail so that you can actually make progress FOR A SUPERIOR SERVICE against them on a consistent basis. PAUL GOODRIDGE Write down ALL the goals you have for the next year. Then, find someone to share them with and have them check up on All plumbing work undertaken from a dripping tap to a complete bathroom you monthly to see if you are making progress. Get them to hold you accountable - with rewards for completion. Leadwork, guttering work and tiling also undertaken Create milestones and chip away at each goal a little everyday Highly competitive pr ices - then the overall picture doesn’t seem so overwhelming. It’s like driving - if you know where you’re going, you’ll get Senior citizen discounts there much quicker !!

In our community ‘Otterly’ fab family fun at the Oceanarium Family Fun Activities start from Saturday May 28 and continue throughout the half-term holiday.

36

The award-winning Oceanarium, Bournemouth, is set to officially celebrate the introduction of its firstever mammal display, ‘Otter Oasis’. A pair of Oriental small clawed otters have moved into the brand new enclosure and to mark their arrival, a variety of otter themed entertainment will take place. Families will have the opportunity to delight in the antics of the playful and mischievous otters as they swim and explore in their new enclosure. Oliver Buttling, Group Curator of the Oceanarium, said: “We’re really excited to welcome the otters to the Oceanarium. For our visitors, it’s a chance to come and celebrate with us and see the 300 different species we have here, and having the opportunity to learn an abundance of interesting facts about the otters from our team of experts.” The unveiling of Otter Oasis follows an investment of more than £150,000 to create a new experience for visitors. The enclosure is custom-built to provide the otters with a naturally themed habitat. For more details on activities taking place at the Oceanarium visit www.oceanarium.co.uk or telephone 01202 311993. continued on page 40

Framing the Subject

Last month I considered ideas for composition, lets now consider the overall shape within the frame. The psychology of shapes is well known and as we all react subconsciously in the same way to some shapes they are used constantly in advertising and design to give us subliminal messages. Have you noticed how often financial industry logos are based on the shape of a triangle? A triangle is a stable shape and cannot fall over. It is a symbol of stability.The church gable end at Tyneham village is an example. Use the idea with a group of people, even 1 person with careful arm placement can look very stable. We usually lie down to rest which is why a landscape format is referred to as a quiet horizontal and can be used to convey the idea of peace, quiet and relaxation. The River Stour at Christchurch is a landscape example. I f , h oweve r, you use movement blur in the image this shape can emphasize the concept of speed and action. A sense of drama can also be introduced by tilting the subject away from the horizontal or vertical. This is called a falling angle, illustrated here with the tree, but can also be used in action photos to add a sense of speed applied to a person, bike or car implying that it is moving quickly or it would fall over. We are vertical objects and humans consider themselves as dignified. Therefore a vertical frame with a vertical subject implies dignity. This can be applied to any subject. Viewpoint is also an influence here and will be dealt with next month. Happy shooting.

Seasonal Pet Advice for this summer With the summer in full swing and people going on their holidays, it is important to give extra care and attention to our pets. Pet owners are urged to avoid leaving animals in cars, conservatories, outbuildings or caravans during warm weather, as temperatures can quickly rise to 47°C (117°F) and this may result in death It is a criminal offence to leave any animal alone without making proper arrangements for its welfare. If your pet does have to stay in the car for a short period of time always ensure windows are left open, water is available and you are parked in the shade.

Jurassic Jaunts – Worth Matravers Priests Way Eastern Circular route

Distance: 6 miles. Difficulty: Medium. Access Restrictions: No. Information: Toilets in car park. How to get there: - Grid Ref 974777; Turn right just after Corfe Castle for Kingston. After Kingston, follow the road for about a mile and turn right for Worth Matravers. The car park is on your right just before the village. There is a small parking fee. Walk details: Turn right as you leave the car park, turn left around the base of the Square and Compass pub (100 metres) and proceed along the road for about ½ mile. On the right of the road, cross the stile with the finger post saying Priests Way. Cross the next two stiles and proceed across the fields, across 2 further stiles until you reach a track Follow this track for about ¼ mile and you will see a stile to your right signposted Seacombe and the Eastington National Trust area. Go over the stile and follow the path down the valley to Seacombe (do not follow the left fork to Dancing Ledge after the second stile). The path to Winspit is about 100 metres back from the cliffs on the right. Go over the stile into the woods, up through the woods and follow the coastal path to Winspit quarries (2/3 mile). As you drop down into Winspit, the path is not, as it seems, directly across the track into the base of the quarries. You need to turn right up the track for about 70 metres, then left up around the top of the quarry and onto the St Aldhelms/St Albans Head Coastguard’s station (2/3 mile). At Winspit you can also proceed directly up the track to Worth if you wish (1 mile, about 3 miles in total). At the Coastguard station, turn right along the track to Worth Matravers and walk through the village to the car park (2 miles). © Jurassic Jaunts AP 2010 www.jurassicjaunts.co.uk info@jurassicjaunts.co.uk 07790 474 478 To advertise ring Mark or CJ at The Advertising Hub on 01202 882277

continued from page 3 The fuel is expected to cost around 19p a litre. Even with fuel taxes, the forecourt price is likely to be around 60p a litre – less than half the current cost. That would bring the price of filling a 70-litre Ford Mondeo down to around £42. Energy from hydrogen can be harnessed by burning the gas or combining it with oxygen in a fuel cell to produce electricity. Current methods of storing hydrogen are expensive and not very safe. To get round this, s c i e n t i s t s f ro m t h e Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, near Oxford, U n i ve r s i t y C o l l e g e London and Oxford University have found a way of densely packing hydrogen into tiny beads that can be poured or pumped like a liquid.
