The General Bathymetric Chart of the Oceans (GEBCO) world map shows the bathymetry of the world's ocean floor in the form of a 1.3m x 1.0m map. Bathymetric tinting shows the depths & altitude tinting is applied to the land masses. No cities are indicated, but rivers are marked (not named) & many bathymetric features are named, eg. abyssal plains, fracture zones & basins. Latitude & longitude lines are at 30 degree intervals, with margin ticks ate one degree intervals. The map is on a Mercator projection at a scale of 1:35, 000, 000 at the Equator. Below the main map are 2 stereographic projections showing the polar regions at 1:25, 000, 000. Work on the creation of the GEBCO world map began as a laboratory workshop project of the Nippon Foundation/GEBCO Training Project at the Center for Coastal & Ocean Mapping of the University of New Hampshire, USA. The bathymetry data shown on the map is based upon the GEBCO One Minute Grid, a global bathymetric grid with one arc-minute spacing, as contained within the Centenary Edition of the GEBCO Digital Atlas (published in 2003). The land imagery is taken from the US National Aeronautics & Space Administration's (NASA) Blue Marble data set. The coastline is taken from the World Vector Shoreline. ...

- & last year the Duke of Cambridge in St Peter's Street was celebrating winning three ethical awards. It has received a Natural & Organic Award, in association with the Soil Association, for the Best Organic Restaurant & its 'unflinching commitment to the environment'. The judges were impressed by the pub's policy of using only produce that is in season, creating a twice-daily changing menu
- with 80 per cent of fresh ingredients coming from the Home Counties. The Duke of Cambridge serves outstanding organic food made with seasonal local ingredients. It's hearty, rustic British food with Mediterranean influences. You won't find any fresh tomatoes on the menu in winter or parsnips in summer. The menu changes twice daily, showcasing ingredients according to what is at its peak of freshness & flavour. All the food is made at the pub
- from the ice cream to the bread & pickles. Geetie Singh, proprietor of this award-winning establishment decided it was time to pass on a selection of recipes to over 150 of their specialities, & those collected here do not disappoint. Confit garlic & cream soup, Spicy carrot & parsley soup & White bean, mushroom & chorizo soup are highlights of the autumn soups section. Fish, meat & vegetables get a variety of treatments
- grilled, baked, steamed or roasted
- all procedures that intensify flavour. This is irresistible food. They take simple, everyday seasonal ingredients you can find available anywhere
- beetroot, cabbage, garlic & chillies, & transform them into dishes that taste so much more than ordinary. There's a fresh take on everything & even though some recipes are little more than assembly, such as Blue cheese, chicory & walnut salad, they're great for new ideas. This book, illustrated with stylish photographs of the food, the cooks, waiting staff & customers is arranged into sections according to the season & will provide you with a year's worth of culinary inspiration.
