How Recursive Causality in Complex Time Generates Shannon Information
This version is not peer-reviewed. Michael Charles Parker * ,Chris Jeynes * ,Stuart D. Walker Michael Charles Parker * ,Chris Jeynes * ,Stuart D. Walker Submitted: 15 September 2026 Posted: 16 September 2026 You are already at the latest version It is well-known that Shannon information may be represented in the usual formalism by points of non-analyticity. We show (assuming that the Second Law of Thermodynamics is taken as axiomatic) that it may also be generated by recursive systems.
An evaluation of perceptions and implementation of good review practices in the medicine review process at the Egyptian drug authority
Abstract Introduction: Good Review Practices (GRevPs) are considered of value for regulatory system strengthening that support timely, consistent, transparent, and high-quality regulatory reviews. It is therefore important that GRevPs are continuously updated and monitored to improve the review process. This study is the first assessment of GRevPs within the Egyptian Drug Authority (EDA) and provides a baseline for future monitoring and improvement.
Dion Pereira earns Crawley point at 10-man Northampton
Dion Pereira earns Crawley point at 10-man Northampton Dion Pereira earns Crawley point at 10-man Northampton Ten-man Northampton were pegged back to a 1-1 draw by Crawley at Sixfields. Nathan Opoku steered the Cobblers ahead in the first half but Lee Evans then saw red before Dion Pereira came off the bench to rescue a point for the away side. Joe O'Brien-Whitmarsh blazed over when an early chance presented itself before Sam Hoskins saw a shot blocked as the hosts made the brighter start.
Think before you flush: expert advice on how and when to save water at home
By Stuart Walker, Research Fellow in Sustainabilty Assessment, University of Sheffield Water unites everyone on the planet, and as well as keeping us alive, it has thousands of other uses, yet we undervalue it, take it for granted and often waste it. As many countries are now experiencing hot weather more frequently, our demand for water increases.
Think before you flush: expert advice on how and when to save water at home Original
Water unites everyone on the planet, and as well as keeping us alive, it has thousands of other uses, yet we undervalue it, take it for granted and often waste it. As many countries are now experiencing hot weather more frequently, our demand for water increases. Water companies need to act to reduce leaks and wastage, but there are also ways we can all save water around the house, as well as save money and preserve this valuable resource.
Want to cut your energy bills? Here’s how five experts are doing it Original
Rising prices are putting pressure on people to try and use less energy. But what are the most effective ways of cutting bills? We asked five experts for their practical advice. 1. Insulate your home Upgrading loft insulation to current standards, typically 27–30cm thick for mineral wool, improves energy efficiency, comfort and long-term cost savings. It acts as a thermal barrier, as up to 25% of a home’s heat can escape . Installing cavity wall insulation in older homes improves efficiency by .
Boek | Design Shift - Stuart Walker
Examining how creative decision-making is fundamentally tied to our values and modes of thinking in an era of accelerating change and deepening challenges, this book offers a timely reminder that design can be a powerful force for renewal, when grounded in a sense of responsibility, humility, and shared humanity.
Why I'm building an office out of straw
The garden office from the inside. Credit: Lorna Jackson, CC BY-NC-ND When we moved into our house, there was a shed in the garden. Its timbers were rotten, the floor had long since disappeared into the ground, there was no door, the window had fallen out and various creatures had moved in. I decided to rebuild it out of a material that has been used around the world for hundreds of years, but is less commonly seen in modern buildings: straw bales.

LETTER: BC Ferries justified in ban on electric vehicles
BC Ferries has every right to refuse any vehicle deemed unsafe. They ask if Jerry cans are with you, they have specific dangerous goods guidelines, and also serve smaller Gulf Islands Sundays with a dangerous-goods-only early morning sailing. It only took one laptop to bring down a large UPS cargo plane. I hope one day the EV cars and bikes will be segregated somehow, as we all know the possibilities of one going up in flames. That can jeopardize over 2,000 people.
Informed choice or chance and accident? How did you end up in your career?
Simple question, but if you’re anything like me the answer is a winding road of often, in fact mostly, accidental choices, opportunities, mistakes and chance events. Now this is all well and good I tell myself as I reflect on my first teenage paper round and local supermarket job. But sooner or later shouldn’t I have fleshed out some sacred vocational pathway that honed my skills towards an ultimate calling that optimised my potential? What about you?
LETTER: Parking still a good deal at Victoria airport
If our airport authorities are similar to the U.S. ones, then they are the ones who collect the fees, not the company in charge of it. Whether they are from the U.S. or not is irrelevant, so put your elbows down and learn about the trade issue by not watching mainstream news. I guarantee you won't get angered, which is what they try to do. Rates are up everywhere, and parking at the Victoria International Airport (YYJ) is still a better deal than many cities.

Agents, dealers and service providers beware: UAE regulators to focus on DNFBP’s
Speaking at a recent conference in Dubai, representatives of several of the UAE’s regulatory authorities indicated that they will be significantly increasing their focus on the so-called Designated Non-Financial Business or Profession (DNFBP) sector.
Edtech and the digital divide
Five things I’ve learned in the crucial quest for progress. I’ve spent much of the last 10 years of my career in the education technology sector trying to help answer this question, I think I’ve learned some key factors along the way. Here’s 5, but first I’ll explain some context. Firstly “Edtech” seems to me to be a very broad term. Essentially used to describe almost any technology that might be involved in education or used at some stage by educators, learners, support staff the list goes on.

Add accessibility functionality to dev mode annotations
We struggle with the best way to annotate our designs with accessibility notes. We’ve tried 3rd party and custom built solutions but none are ideal. We love that annotations in Figma can be opened and collapsed to a single dot in the top right of the frame. So you can have accessibility notes hidden until you actually need them. My idea is to have accessibility functionality in the annotation feature. So rather than just have a free form field, you could have a dropdown menu to select H1 or H2 tag.
Cambridge enhance survival prospects after fantastic win at Barnsley
Garry Monk registered his first win in charge of Cambridge as they gave their League One survival hopes a massive boost by beating promotion-chasing Barnsley 2-0 at Oakwell. Barnsley should have gone ahead inside 11 minutes when Nicky Cadden fired wide from six yards after a low cross was cleared into his path. Cambridge then took the lead in the 13th minute from an own goal. Mael de Gevigney tried to play the ball back to his goalkeeper but his misdirected pass found the Barnsley net.
Protected main branch
March 27, 2024, 1:47pm 1 It would be nice to have the option of locking the main branch. Sometimes by mistake, we edit the main branch, and it would be awesome to guarantee that that does not happen, creating conflicts on the actual branches.
Blackpool continue play-off push with win at Shrewsbury
Goals from Karamoko Dembele and Hayden Coulson secured Blackpool a 2-0 victory at Shrewsbury to keep their League One play-off hopes alive. Just before the 20-minute mark, Tom Bloxham sent a first-time cross into the box for Shrewsbury, which found Dan Udoh but his diving header was kept out by Dan Grimshaw. Blackpool was awarded a free-kick in the 40th minute, which reached George Byers on the edge of the box.
St Mirren strike twice in stoppage time to deny Neil Warnock first Aberdeen win
Mark O’Hara and Toyosi Olusanya scored in stoppage time to earn St Mirren a 2-1 home win and deny Neil Warnock his first league victory as interim Aberdeen manager. Connor Barron’s goal after just 62 seconds looked set to earn the Dons a first league win for two months. But substitute Olusanya won a penalty after a long VAR delay that was converted by O’Hara before just moments later the striker volleyed in what proved to be the winner to improve Saints’ top-six chances.
Josh Sargent bags late winner as Norwich overcome Sunderland
Stuart Walker Press Association Josh Sargent scored for the seventh successive home game as Norwich maintained their Championship play-off challenge with a hard-fought 1-0 win over Sunderland. The USA international struck in the 81st minute as the Canaries finally found a way past a stubborn visiting defence to make it five victories on the trot at Carrow Road.
DFSA Decision Notices not Findings of Fact in the DIFC Courts
The DIFC Courts have recently confirmed that Decision Notices issued by the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) are not binding on the Court as findings of fact.
Nature-positive innovation
What if we could build wooden houses without felling a tree? What if we could fish in such a way that left egg-producing females in the sea? And what if we could fill our forests with a wide array of edible plants, making commercially farmed forests look comparatively barren? Though they may seem impossible, these practices have existed for centuries, suggesting that the future we need is to be found in our past.
Innovación que protege la naturaleza.
MANCHESTER – ¿Y si pudiéramos construir casas de madera sin talar un árbol? ¿Qué pasaría si pudiéramos pescar de tal manera que las hembras productoras de huevos quedaran en el mar? ¿Y si pudiéramos llenar nuestros bosques con una amplia gama de plantas comestibles, haciendo que los bosques cultivados comercialmente parecieran comparativamente estériles?
Creating the Future That Lasts
Climate change has become a time bomb, and the need to develop new ways of living that are far gentler on the planet has never been greater. But we stubbornly adhere to the same old mantra of innovation, technology, and unrestrained growth – offering lip service to sustainability while encouraging nature-destroying activities that rapidly make the planet unlivable. Even “green” technologies accelerate production and promote consumption.

Design Criticism
Editor's Note: The following excerpt is from Stuart Walker's new book Design for Resilience out now from MIT Press. The text and images are reproduced here with permission of the author and publisher. Criticism in the context of art and design is concerned with analysis and evaluation of creative works and judicious discernment of their contribution.
Design for Resilience
A beautifully written and illustrated framework for resilient design that is as pragmatic as it is inspiring, showing us not only how but why we should design differently. Design for Resilience is a timely, visionary map for creating restorative design that addresses humanity's most critical issue: climate change. Our current wealth-oriented economic systems have resulted in gross disparities, war, refugee crises, and mass migrations that augur a bleak collective future.
The 20 Essential Werewolf Movies
(Photo by Universal, Avco Embassy, Cannon Films, Summit Entertainment, Unapix Entertainment/courtesy Everett Collection) Werewolves haven’t had the same pop cultural penetration as their fright-night brethren like zombies, vampires, and the assortment of slasher villains, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have movies worth howling for.
Yotam Ottolenghi's Parmesan Rind Hack Adds Tons of Flavors to Nearly Any Dish
Celebrity chefs aren’t always known for their practicality. That’s especially true if you’re an everyday at-home cook who doesn’t have access to the specialty shops, high-end kitchens, unusual ingredients — think dried fermented scallops or caul fat, as seen on cooking show Chopped — or big budgets that these chefs are accustomed to. And sometimes, a celebrity chef’s advice seems out of touch and turns off readers (the cookbooks by Al Roker and Kris Jenner are prominent examples).

'Sanford and Son' Star Redd Foxx's Death Sadly Imitated His Sitcom Shtick
There’s one thing that comedians Richard Pryor, Pat Morita, Jamie Foxx and Chris Rock all have in common: They’ve all cited the Redd Foxx as their comedic inspiration. Although Foxx passed away in 1991, he’s left a lasting legacy on the North American comedy world. Over the span of his decades-long career Foxx, starred on numerous TV shows and earned multiple Academy Award nominations.
The Film That Spawned the Series Was Filmed In 1 Of Maine's Most Beautiful Towns
Incestuous relationships. Dark homicides. Salacious scandals. When the controversial movie Peyton Place began production on the northeastern shores of America, residents of the town it was being filmed in raised their eyebrows and rumors spread rapidly. After all, this was taking place back in the more conservative 1950s, and the book the movie was based on was already infamous for its controversial storylines.
Michael Sheen Rejected This Prestigious Award From Queen Elizabeth
There are many prestigious awards that Hollywood actors strive to win. Top examples include the Academy Awards, the Tony Awards, and the Emmy Awards, to name just a few. Although Queen Elizabeth II is not a member of the Hollywood elite, her royal highness also periodically hands out internationally respected honors, medals, orders, and knighthood to Hollywood celebrities. One such celebrity is Michael Sheen, who was given one of the queen’s most distinguished designations back in 2009.
Don Knotts' Daughter Has One Regret About Leaving Her Father's Deathbed
Despite having a difficult childhood, Don Knotts became a comedy legend. He was the heart and soul of The Andy Griffith Show as Barney Fife, and he was so good in it that no one even realized how exhausting it was for him. He had a fantastic movie career, performed on dozens of variety shows, and stole the show on Three’s Company as Mr. Furley. He was so good on Three’s Company that they kept having to reshoot his scenes as he made everyone laugh.
Bea Arthur Had 1 Contract Demand Involving Her Feet
The late Beatrice “Bea” Arthur, who died in April 2009 at the age of 86, played the iconic role of Dorothy Zbornak in the hit sitcom The Golden Girls.

Arthur once famously quipped: “I’m not playing a role.
Paul Walker Thought 'Fast and Furious' Franchise Was 'Stale'
Paul Walker dominated the box office for much of the early 2000s. With appearances on The Young and the Restless and hit performances in late 90s movies such as Varsity Blues, and She’s All That, he seemed on a trajectory to superstardom from early on in his career. Soon after, he would become a household name as Brian O’Conner in 2001’s The Fast and the Furious.
