This is a BIG DEAL.

Cement production is one of the biggest sources of CO2 emissions that doesn't directly involve burning fossil fuels. Sure, making cement uses a lot of energy, but theoretically that energy could come from renewable sources that don't emit CO2. Even if it did though, the process of making cement basically involves baking limestone until CO2 and water are driven out of it, creating a substance called "clinker" that is ground down into cement powder. So, making new cement from limestone always emits a lot of CO2, no matter what energy source you use.

This research basically showed that you can use old crushed up concrete waste in place of the flux that is usually used in smelting/recycling steel. Flux creates a glassy slag on top of the molten steel that captures impurities and protects the metal from oxygen while its molten hot. Using concrete as flux basically re-bakes the concrete back into clinker, which can then be used to create more cement and new concrete, while not producing any new CO2 emissions because you're basically baking the CO2 that reacted with the cement to make concrete back out of it. Its like how burning wood doesn't increase the total amount of CO2 in the atmosphere, because the carbon in the tree originally came from the air. Its only digging fossilized carbon out of the ground and adding it into the air that's the problem.

This is a huge step towards decarbonizing our building materials, and it doesn't involve any fancy new technologies, or speculative processes. This could be done today in steel mills that currently exist, they'd just have to switch flux sources and start saving the slag.

What a brilliant piece of industrial research!

[man-and-atom]

It should never be forgotten that energy is the one and only fundamental physical resource. With energy, all material things are possible. Without it, none are.

Sir Alan Cottrell FRS, Master of Jesus College, Cambridge, and sometime chief scientific adviser to HM Government, speaking at the opening of the “Atoms for Energy” exhibition in Birmingham, 1981 November. Sir Alan went on to say :

Here in Birmingham at the centre of a great industrial area huge amounts of iron, aluminium, glass, copper and other materials are worked up daily into all kinds of manufactured goods. What happens in these processes? The atoms themselves are not changed. Just as many iron, aluminium, copper and other atoms come out of a factory as go in. All that we do is move them about, mix them up and sort them out into various patterns and shapes. And the one thing that is absolutely essential for doing all this, and which is used up in the process, is the high quality energy that comes out of electricity lines, gas pipes, and coal and oil bunkers. Given enough energy, as well as the time and scientific and industrial skills to use it effectively, we can extract all our required minerals and turn them into metals and manufactured goods ; we can turn oil and gas into plastics, purify water, recycle scrap metals, and even turn carbon compounds into protein foods. High quality energy is truly the lifeblood of modern society.

Cambridge solar reactor transforms plastic waste and CO2 into raw materials of choice

Researchers at the University of Cambridge have developed a solar-powered reactor that can recycle two types of waste streams into green fuel and chemicals. By varying the catalysts, the end product can be tailor-made.

Converting greenhouse gas[1]  and plastic waste[2] into new raw materials using solar energy is nothing new. What is special about this new technology from a British team is that it combines these twoprocesses. As a result, one reactor can make different recycled products for different industries, from cosmetics to fuel.

Successful solar test

The researchers have successfully conducted several tests with the solar-powered reactor. CO2 and plastic drinking bottles have been converted into glycolic acid[3], which is widely used in cosmetics, and syngas[4], a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen gas that can be further processed into fuel, respectively.

The technology, powered solely by solar energy, is a case of 'two birds with one stone': it tackles the problems of plastic pollution and greenhouse gases while preventing the extraction of new, scarce raw materials.

Final product of choice

The waste materials that go into the reactor can be 'recycled' into various end products thanks to a special built-in system. The research team tested different catalysts and saw the end product change.

According to the study's lead author Subhajit Bhattacharjee, the experiments show great promise for the machine's potential. “The versatility of the system is exceptional. We're making fairly simple carbon-based molecules now, but in the future we could tune the system to make much more complex products. Simply by changing the catalyst."

It is a step towards the circular economy. In the study[5], the researchers state that the technology lays the foundation for large, fully solar-powered recycling plants. To do this, the technology must be competitive and scalable, and we are not there yet. The European Research Council (ERC)[6] will invest in the next phase of development to create “more complex products”. The time horizon for this is five years.

Reactor with an view to the future

The reactor has two integrated spaces for plastic and greenhouse gases. The light absorber in the reactor works on perovskite[7] solar cells. That mineral is a lot cheaper and easier to find in nature than high-quality silicon – the more common choice for generating solar energy.

The machine is very efficient, according to the research. This is not entirely unique to the technology. Last year, researchers at Stanford University also developed a catalyst[8] that could convert CO2 into fuel a thousand times more efficiently than is average for CO2 conversion.

NASA has developed a new technology that can convert the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (C02) into fuel by using solar-powered, thin-film devices. Metal oxide thin films are fabricated to produce a photoelectrochemical cell that is powered by solar energy. By converting CO2 to fuel before it is emitted to the atmosphere this technology can mitigate the effects of the burning of fossil fuels, the worlds major fuel source for the foreseeable future This new nanomaterial thin-film device provides a low cost, facile fabrication pathway to commercialize the technology in the sustainable energy market. More importantly, it results in a zero carbon footprint by recycling C02 to fuels that are compatible with all existing fuel utilities. This is accomplished by using solar power to convert the C02 into a useable fuel in a very compact device.

Plastic products are used almost in all our daily life activities due to their characteristics such as being inert, durability, flexibility, and versatility. More than 1 million tons of plastic wastes are generated daily in Ethiopia. Unless managed it properly plastic waste affects the environment immensely since they are durable and stable. Plastic wastes stay in the environment for a long time. In this paper, a solar-assisted pyrolysis system has been designed and tested for the generation of liquid fuel from High-Density Polyethylene plastic waste. Data were collected related to the solar energy potential of Addis Ababa city of Ethiopia and the amount of plastic waste generated daily. Proximate and ultimate analysis and heating value of waste were determined experimentally. The energy requirements of the pyrolysis system were determined and the sizing of the system was performed. The model is simulated using Matlab software and a mathematical model is applied to study the performance of the system. A 4 m diameter solar parabolic dish collector with a cylindrical-shaped reactor at the focal point and dual solar tracking system is used based on Addis Ababa weather data and the required energy for the endothermic pyrolysis. Based on the result, the conversion efficiency of the system is 72% by weight. The result also shows 1360 Kwh/m2  of solar energy is required to produce 14.2 liters of liquid fuel from High-Density Polyethylene plastic waste. The heating value of the produced liquid fuel is 41.8 MJ/kg. Thus, by using a solar-assisted pyrolysis system a liquid fuel has been produced from plastic waste, income is generated from the selling of the produced liquid fuel, and the environmental impact of waste plastic is reduced.

[3] Glycolic acid is one of the most commonly used ingredients in exfoliating products and is loved by dermatologists. Glycolic acid is a form of AHA, also known as an alpha hydroxy acid. Derived from plant sugars, it is also called "fruit acid" and is one of the most effective chemical exfoliants you can use to achieve a healthy complexion. Due to its extremely small molecular structure, it can easily penetrate the upper layers of the skin, better than other AHA acids. This makes it one of the best acids to give a visibly renewed and fresh look to dull skin.

[4] Syngas, or synthesis gas, is a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide, in various ratios. The gas often contains some carbon dioxide and methane. It is principally used for producing ammonia or methanol. Syngas is combustible and can be used as a fuel.

Here we introduce a versatile photoelectrochemical platform for CO2 conversion that is coupled to the reforming of plastic. The perovskitebased photocathode enables the integration of different CO2-reduction catalysts such as a molecular cobalt porphyrin, a Cu91In9 alloy and formate dehydrogenase enzyme, which produce CO, syngas and formate, respectively. The Cu27Pd73 alloy anode selectively reforms polyethylene terephthalate plastics into glycolate in alkaline solution. The overall singlelight-absorber photoelectrochemical system operates with the help of an internal chemical bias and under zero applied voltage. The system performs similarly to bias-free, dual-light absorber tandems and shows about 10‒100fold higher production rates than those of photocatalytic suspension processes. This finding demonstrates efficient photoelectrochemical CO2to-fuel production coupled to plastic-to-chemical conversion as a promising and sustainable technology powered by sunlight.

Princess Beatrice enchants in tailored dress from the Duchess of Cambridge's wardrobe

The royal ladies are unexpected style twins

The 33-year-old royal looked enchanting in an elegant Self-Portrait midi dress to attend the 2022 Annual Summit dinner at Mansion House on Friday. The poignant event brought together 20:40 members and senior leaders, of which Princess Beatrice was a speaker.

Photographs shared by guests on Instagram picture Princess Beatrice donning the tailored piece, which features a fitted bouclé jacket with a waist-cinching belt, and a lace-trimmed pleated chiffon skirt.

The royal's effortlessly elegant fit sparked a fashion frenzy online, who quickly matched Princess Beatrice's dress to one in the Duchess of Cambridge's archive.

Kate memorably wore the iconic Self-Portrait ensemble at the reception for Hold Still, and again at the Queen's Platinum Party at the Palace last month - a timeless piece in her wardrobe.

Quick to react to Princess Beatrice's eveningwear aesthetic, one fan wrote: "I wonder if Catherine allowed Beatrice to borrow this outfit!! Love the recycling options."

"I loved it since I first saw it on Kate," shared a second fan, while another penned: "I don’t know what happened to the Princess and the Duchess but they are literally GLOWING lately! Loving them both."

It wouldn't be unlikely if the Duchess of Cambridge lent Princess Beatrice her dress, given their close relationship and similar royal style.

Both royals are also keen advocates of recycling fashion, having re-worn many an outfit and statement accessory through the years.

The statement Self-Portrait tailored midi-dress retails for £420. The head-turning fit is the ultimate understated style statement, featuring peak lapels, structured shoulders, all-over metallic tweed texture and satin trim..

With two of the royal family's most fashionable ladies having worn the dress, most sizes have understandably sold out. But you can shop a select number of sizes from Selfridges.

Aimez-Moi, Aimez-Moi Pas | Love Me, Love Me Not

Warning: SMUT (18+), Language

A/N: No one writes about Curtis and like I get it...there’s a reason for that cranberry juice comment that floats throughout Tumblr. But I think his character is interesting and I read Le Transperceneige so I wanted to tie in both the movie and comic and give it a go in this one shot…..

Cranberry juice is not required to read ;)

Also I created the banner so please reblog if you want to use it.

He hated the train at night. Three hundred and sixty five days stuck in a narrow, metal contraption and the bed that he was laying on still felt no worse than the ground two years later, the thin cotton blanket he pulled tightly around him doing nothing for the subtle breeze that would occasionally blow by.

He tried to tune out the coughing, the sour smell of sweaty human bodies that hadn’t left the roof of his nose since he had boarded, the feel of another body just an arms reach away from where he slept.

Instead, he focuses on you. Tries to remember the sweetness of your voice, the curve of your smile, the glint in your eyes. Tries to remember the first time he saw you.

“Global warming is an inevitable consequence of humans. The result and combination of overpopulation and a negligence to find solutions for all the toxic energy we’ve pumped into our air since the start of the industrial revolution.

There will be a moment, soon, in our current history in which famine will strike us, the heat causing fresh water to be as rare as gold. If we do nothing about the poor way we are treating our planet, humans will be the cause of our own extinction.”

You had been wearing plum that day. A tight plum dress that had shaped itself onto your body, hugging your curves and shifting your cleavage up. He remembered the way his stomach had dropped as he watched you move across the stage, the material flowing after you as the microphone you held in your hand became an afterthought, flashes of your presentation flashing behind you.

“Now we are trying to find solutions. The short term answer that’s been proposed is cutting world population growth for the next 80 years by 45%; a solution that would have served us best in the 1960s and honestly is too late now. Then there’s CW-7….”

You pause, frowning before you debate your next words to the audience,

“I’ve been a part of a special team of scientist to create an alternative that can, hypothetically, cool our ozone. It’s been my life for six years but as we come close to a final version I feel adverse. The universe - earth - took billions upon billions of years to create the perfect atmosphere to sustain life and now us - mere humans far inferior to our planet thinks we can find some quick solution to fix it?”

There’s low murmuring from the audience, students agreeing and disagreeing as a slide stops at a photo of earth from space.

“Some scientists want to inject CW-7 into the ozone - the long term quick fix. I'm sure you’ve heard the deadlines. I’m telling you now as one of the owners of that product that it’s a cheap man's alternative. The tests of this solution haven’t proven to be successful, 60% success rate of cooling the dying thin film.

That mean a forty percent chance of freezing the planet is at stake. And the consequence will be shifting our planet into a second Ice Age. Is that worth the risk - 60% success? In any other part of our society it would qualify as barely passing but in this instance our world leaders want to compromise. There’s a need for more time that can’t be given and it’s made me wonder.

If I must choose my demise, must it be ice due to bureaucracy or famine due to neglect?”

Your eyes had locked on his upon the last statement, orbs that burned into his own. You had hesitated, cleared your throat before finishing your speech, the auditorium erupting in applause. There had always been some deeper connection between the both of you - even from the start when you were both strangers.

You were some young prodigy - an environmentalist that had been working with NASA and other scientist to address the global warming crisis since you were a teenager. Except as your team neared a solution you had decided to break off, to commit to teaching at Cambridge part time while continuing your research.

This lecture was for one of your classes, yet the room was packed like it was a hosted campus event. Faculty and student alike had been buzzing about you, about your genius and ingenuity and he had been curious.

He had wanted to hear you, to see what you were truly about and to learn more about this crises that was burdening all humans on the planet. He had been following the crises for years and it felt like a miss to not hear someone who could provide a strong lens to this international crisis.

He had understood a lot that day. He rolls on his back, draping his arms behind his back, staring at the metal ceiling. 

You were compelling, exciting, refreshing. He liked the way you spoke, the energy and fire. It inspired him to start cycling to work, be more mindful of how he was wasting and recycling. He had told you as much when he ran into you a month later.

You weren’t paying any attention. Your brown pencil skirt and ivory blouse made you stand out as an academic on campus, the brown and white leather Mary Janes and black work bag you had thrown over your shoulder completing your ensemble. You were looking down at your phone in one hand, frowning with a cup of coffee in the other as he looked up just in time to run smack dab into you.

“Oh shit!” Your voice is low and feminine as you take in the milky coffee that’s cooling on your arm, trickled on your skirt and blouse.

“Just my luck.” You mutter, before looking up and sighing seeing where the remaining coffee had landed. All over his dark navy shirt, his black slacks.

“Oh fuck! I’m so sorry. I should’ve been paying more attention.” Your eyes had lifted to his, a faint spark of familiarity flickering through though you don’t act on it as he assures,

“No, no - I was trying to pick out inserts from Niccolo Machiavelli and wasn’t paying attention at all. I’m sorry - let me grab you a cup of coffee.”

“I’ve ruined your shirt, your textbook…”

He chuckles, shaking the pages of the worn text.

“It’ll survive coffee. It’s survived far worse,” he hesitates, takes you in before saying,  “That coffee cart by the library makes a mean Americano. One of the three decent baristas that work there just started his shift and I was headed there before I bumped into you if you’re interested.”

You lift an eyebrow, turning behind you to drink the cart in before looking back at him,

“Okay.”

You both walk over to the cart in silence. He doesn’t want to admit to himself how nervous he is, how he’s been trying to find a way to come up to you and say hi ever since he’s watched your lecture and how he’s chickened out every time. You both stand in line, drinking in the autumn air, the way the leaves dance against the slow barren branches before you ask,

“How long have you taught on campus?”

He looks up from the book pages he’s shaking out and quirks his eyebrows over the glasses he’s wearing.

“What makes you think I’m a professor.”

You snort, laughter following as you cross your arms,

“The tailored pants, nice shirt stuffed in said pants. Oxford shoes. The tote bag, your hair and beard are nicely trimmed, fingers manicured. The glasses, the worn text with your commentary. You smell of it from miles away.”

His eyes twinkle, a resigned sigh on his lips as he nods.

“That’s fair. Three years. I’m Curtis. Curtis Proloff. I’m a professor of Renaissance Literature and History.”

You smile, extending your hand out,

“Y/N Belleau. Environmentalist and temporary professor I suppose while the world council of idiots figure out a formidable punishment for me for publicly voicing my distrust with our ‘solution’. But, you already knew that.”

“I did?” He asks, eyes scrunching together and you smile as you both move forward in line.

“Of course. Weren’t you the cute professor at my lecture a month back?”

Your eyes always had this way about them when you were certain of something, a silent air of confidence that he’d sacrifice any part of himself to be able to have now.

The sound of metal on metal, slicing through ice jolts him back to the present. He had bought you coffee and you had sat for hours talking about nothing. You were curious on what had intrigued him to follow his pursuits and passion for literature, to work at Cambridge and he wanted to know how you had gotten to be a part of Project Grenier - the scientific solution that would save the world.

There’s someone muttering in their sleep, a night terror and it triggers an infant that’s lying somewhere in the dark to cry, the soft sound of a mother's cajoling voice desperately shushing them to quiet. Curtis tries to ignore the aching in his stomach - the knowledge that hunger was trying to beat all other senses as he tightens his eyes, thinks back to you.

“Shhhhhh.”

Your voice can barely be heard over the faint chatter in the hallway, your hands dancing down his chest, hooking his briefs before your pulling them down along with his suit pants.

You were both at a dinner in Vienna, a conference that was being hosted by Wilfred the billionaire to gather all of the great minds in the world to talk about the global warming crisis. It had been two years since he had run into you, two years since that autumn day in the park. Now, a sparkly small diamond twinkled on your left ring finger, your eyes burning into him as your tongue slides languidly up the thick vein of his cock.

“Gooooohhhhhddd, Y/N just like that.”

You hum, that knowing glint of mischief in your eyes as your mouth envelopes over the head of his cock, causing him to gasp out lowly as his hands find your head, guiding you deeper. Your tongue flickers over the tip of his head and he moans in pleasure, the syllables of your name falling out of his mouth sloppily.

His hips natural grind into you, causing you to gag and he moans louder, hands threading into the deep braided coils of your hair as your hands rest lazily behind his thighs.

There’s loud laughter that erupts out the door and you both pause, taken away from the moment as your eyes dart to the door. The footsteps near, pause, before they continue their trip down the hallway - laughter following them. You pull away from him with a pop, spit dribbling down to your chin, his erect cock gleaming in the light from your saliva as you look up at him, eyes highlighted by the charcoal liner you had painted on as you smile up at him wickedly, your red lipstick smudged.

He wished he could frame the way you looked at him.

“That was close.” He whispers and you giggle as you move up him, like a lioness, the thick beaded material of your gold and black dress silently shifting with the movement.

“Just a little bit.” You agree, looking at him carefully. He drinks you in, the low dip of your neckline highlighting your cleavage, the disarray of your hair -  your lipstick.

“I’ve smudged your lipstick.” He whispers, his fingers ghosting over your lips and you smile.

“I don’t mind.”

It’s a beat before his lips are on yours, hands gripping your waist and pushing you back until you hit the bookcase as he tries to lift you, getting you a few feet off the ground before he drops you and you giggle in his mouth as he stops, pulling away.

“I’m not the kind of women you get to lift up and fuck.”

He growls, carnal and feral as he spins you, pushing you onto the lavish cherry oak desk in the room and lifting you up enough to place on the desk,

“Stop being self-deprecating. Yes you are.”

You smile underneath his lips, your hands moving up the broadness of his shoulders.

“Have I told you how much I love you today?”

You ask him and he shrugs as his lips skim down your neck, kissing the delicate flesh tenderly as he parts your legs further. His hands are slow in their ascent of your panties and he’s surprised when he finds your wearing none, greeted instead by the warm mound of your vagina.

“You have. A total of twenty times I think? Just one less than me.” his voice gets lost in your neck, vibrates against you and you moan as he skims the folds of your pussy with a finger.

“Than I love you. Now we’re square.”

You had this terrible habit of always trying to be right. He hated it. He loved it. You were aware it was a horrible aspect of your personality but you couldn’t deny it - it had been the reason you were admitted into Cambridge at 12,  was the only 30 year old on a world science council to solve the global warming crisis - and it was what had captured his heart.

He shifts his hips into you, lifting his head so his cock teases your folds and you gasp as you look at him as he mumbles,

“Can’t have that. I love you more.”

You giggle before he slowly inserts himself into you, lifting you a bit as he allowed the warmth of your walls to flutter around his cock, cause him to groan as you grabbed his face, watching him carefully. You don’t say anything, allow him to shift his hips until he’s full to the brim of you. You watch each other, casting out all the outside noise of your international colleagues and focus on him.

“I never thought I’d find you. Someone I could love more than science. But I’m glad that I did. I’m not sure I completely deserve you, Curtis Proloff.”

You’re eyes have that glossy look to them, your irises darkened and soft as they watch him carefully. Your voice is low and endearing as you hold him tenderly, blinking up into him and he knows that this is hard for you - to be vulnerable like this even if it is him. And that you allowed yourself to be this vocally vulnerable because it makes him happy, captures him in a blanket of your love.

“I think you’re wrong about that Ms. Belleau. I may not know how to solve the global warming crises but I know how to love you. So, by default, I feel like I know what you do and don’t deserve.

And you, out of anyone, deserve love. And I’m honored it can be mine.”

He has to think back to who you were, of what the both of you were to each other back then instead of falling back on the memory of who you are now. Of what the world had allowed you both to become.

“Proloff.”

Your voice is low, bites into the dark and stuffy air and for a second he thinks he’s still daydreaming, that his brain hasn’t shifted back to reality. There’s an impatient sigh as you rock him again gently and his eyes shift over to yours, trying to adjust to the dark and dim lighting.

You’re wearing ragged khaki pants, a tank top that’s covered by a thin sweater, a jacket. They hang off of you loosely - the curves that would have molded the material now gone to undernourishment. You hair is braided back into a ponytail that you tucked into a bun on top of your head as you move into his small bunker he called a bed.

The silver glint of your ring peaks from your bosom, a flash of metal that you push back into your shirt as you saw lowly,

“Proloff - I need you.”

“I need you to understand,” you say as you move out of the bathroom, your hands rubbing lotion together as you find your place on your side of the bed. 

“Alec Wilfred Forrester also thinks that CW-4 is going to fail and as a result, catastrophically knock humans into extinction. He’s…..created this train to host humanity. A set of three that will carry the weight of the world until the sun thaws out earth again.”

“A train?” Curtis looks over at you skeptically, looking at you over the bridge of his glasses as you grab your notebook and sigh. You’re cotton negligee allows your bosom to be revealed, causing his brain to become temporarily distracted as you begin scribbling on your notebook, flickering up at the TV in your room. CNN muted, talking about a final date to shoot the drug into the ozone.

“Its fruitless to convince any leader or council member the recklessness of this choice. They fear what has been happening in the poles; how some countries are already being  affected by extreme hurricanes, longer summers, even shorter winters. Wildfires and tsunamis have been on the rise - wildlife continues to increase on the extinction list.

They can’t mandate cutting the population in have….that’s reckless and quite frankly it wouldn’t solve anything. Its CW-4 or its death.”

Your voice has that distant coldness it tinges with when you’re brain is rattling through equations, formulas and solutions. It scares him the finality of the words and he wonders if you realize that you have no humane remorse for cutting the world's population in have.

Frankly, he could see you sacrificing yourself if it meant a better future for earth. Saving the planet may be the one thing that you loved more than yourself, than him.

“What about the NASA programs for colonization in space for a few humans?” he asks curiously and you shake your head,

“Obtuse. Not going to be done in time. We’d send the first group up and then wouldn’t be able to replenish their supplies five years later. Famine on earth. Death in space.”

You bite your lip,

“I know Wilfred. Met him as a child. I don’t understand why he thinks trains are the solution but he’s been building these tracks, these long complicated trains of metal and steel since I’ve known him.

I saw the Snowpiercer, his shining metal transport glory three days ago and its adequate. Could sustain humans for four decades, I’m positive. I’m skeptical about track maintenance but he’s assured me the heating systems hes created to thaw them, that they are self-sustainable in their simple maintenance as long as they are intact.

It all seems to feel right but yet…...I’m skeptical about the outcomes of it. Contained spaces of any matter can cause people to become stir crazy. We’d be limited of Vitamin D and that's never a good combination for any human.

Furthermore, how will he judge who boards, who doesn’t? Who will maintain the human line and who will perish and become slave to it. A mini secular society in a confined space while the world freezes over terrifies me. Makes me itch with fear. But……..it might be the only hope we have.

Hope for our families future.”

Your hand falls on your barely patroding stomach before you look over at him.

“What do you want to do? I can’t make this choice alone. I’m going to be your wife and we’re going to have a baby and I can’t decide alone this time .and that terrifies me. I’ve always known what to do - whether I’ve liked it or not.”

He can feel it as your voice wavers, the way you shakily put down the notebook you’ve been scrawling on. He throws his book to the side, pulls you to him, wraps his arms around you. Inhales the scent of your hair, kisses your forehead, rests his hands on top of your stomach.

“We have each other. You’re the smartest mind in the history of science and I’m….really good at getting people to listen to me.”

You laugh, looking up at him as he cups your face.

“You’re a very smart and charismatic man Curtis.”

He smiles at you, feels you relax in his arms,

“It's not ideal, the Snowpiercer but it sounds like the safest bet. I’ve been reading about all the options people are creating and they aren’t...they don’t sound like it's going to save us if CW-4 doesn’t hold which, based on the probability, doesn’t sound like it will. We can’t think about what's best for us - you’re right. It's not just us anymore….soon it's going to be three of us.

We have to think about what's best for our family.”

“You’re thinking about pushing to the front aren’t you?”

His voice is low, can barely be heard over the low hum of the train and you nod as you fall back into the tight space of his bed. Your fingers thread together over the flatness of your stomach, the remnants of your pregnancy now gone, replaced by the evidence of your hunger as you look over at him.

“This isn’t sustainable. Being back here. It's not right. I know that I made the choice when we boarded because I couldn’t live with myself if I was separated from you. From people like you.”

You don’t say the empty words of how you loved him, how you were insistent when they tore you both away from each other that you had to be with him.

He had been your demise.

If you had stayed in the front you would be happier. Sad maybe, but overall happier. Your son would be…..

He pushes the thought away.

“Humanity needs a chance after the world warms. It needs to be able to function and operate and …… that’s not going to happen if they keep us seperated. Sustain this class system.”

You turn your eyes toward the darkness of the bunkers, the warm sour bodies and he nods, sitting up.

“Pushing forward isn’t going to be easy. Not after the first two times. Is your group aware of that?”

“We know,” you counter, pulling the necklace with your diamond ring out. Tinkering with the useless sparkly stone. He liked to believe that you kept it because somewhere deep down you still loved him.

He hoped.

“But we have to risk it Proloff. I can’t do this anymore. I can’t watch people lose parts of themselves because of simple humanly functions like hunger. This is no better than functioning in a world of famine.”

There’s a thick, wet tear that boils to the surface of your left eye that lingers, before it decides to give into gravity and fall slowly down your dirty cheek. He wants to lean over and brush it away, wants to cup your face and press his lips on top of yours and tell you it's going to be alright.

“You have a voice here Proloff. You can convince the others who are hesitant. Who don’t want to be involved. I know what you and Gilliam talk about in the late of night, when the lights extinguish and we’re all left with our thoughts. You and him have been whispering what my group have been whispering in the night.

They’d listen to you.”

“They’d listen to you.” he counters and you shake your head, smile to yourself.

“I was supposed to be in the front. They respect my decision; they empathize with my loss. Our loss. They can’t trust me, not after all that we’re subjugated to. Its you Proloff, not me. My time for influence has shifted.”

He sighs as he crosses his legs, sigh.

“Gilliam thinks so to. But I can’t. I can’t. Not after….”

His voice breaks and you look over at him, your hand flickers. He thinks you’ll reach over and touch him; he’s touch starved and misses the comforting feeling of your hands on top of his. You resist as you whisper,

“You’re not alone in your crime Proloff - its mine to own as much your own. And you’re not wrong for it - the brain can be a nasty mistress when its starved of its basic necessities. It was inevitable.”

“I could have said no.” his voice is dry and you sigh.

“He was a stillborn Proloff. You didn’t rip him from the arms of his mother and tear your teeth into his flesh while his heart still beat like others had done to unluckier babes.

He was a stillborn and we mourned him for five minutes before…...before the decision was made. It was inevitable. Everyone was so hungry….it made….it’s not…I was a part of it too. You weren’t alone. The crime’s as much mine as it is yours.”

You don’t look at him as you say the words, more tears falling down your face. There was only one baby left, just one and only because men sacrificed parts of themselves for food and substance.

Their son was the last to be sacrificed to the masses - a stillborn baby that you both were only able to hold and mourn for in minutes before his flesh was ripped for sustenance. The both of you crying as you ate pieces of him until there was nothing left to mourn but tears and bone.

The last time he held you before you pulled away completely.

He was no better than anyone else.  

“I wish you’d call me Curtis. Just once...I’d want to hear my name come out of your mouth.”

You close your eyes, he sees another tear roll down your cheek.

“I can’t. Curtis died when I did. We’re the shells of people who we used to know,” you turn toward him, eyes brimmed red. “And they don’t deserve happiness anymore.”

That was true.

“The people back here deserved to be safe Proloff and you’re able to do that. You’ve always  had this silent leadership to you,” you nudge him as you wipe your nose with your sweater, sigh.

“When we are served our meal tomorrow, do a check on the guns. I think your ammunition theory is valid….i did the math of the men who were shot over the past few rebellions. How many bullets were likely to be used. It's been five years now…...they can’t have anymore.”

You place a hand over his as you look him in the eyes.

“You lead us to the front and I’ll be behind you. Until the end. I want to look Wilfred in the eye and tell him he’s full of shit. But it has to be you.”

Your hands are warm, no longer soft but still have the same weight to them. He looks back up at you, the hope that you’ve held in your eyes before all of it went to shit dimly glistening and he squeezes you back.

“I’ll see what I can do.

Tomorrow.”

“Tomorrow.” You agree with finality.

The promise of a tomorrow can only last so long.

I dont know I kinda wanna write a part 2 but maybe not. This gets enough reblogs I might though it will be angsty af....no going up from here.

The Awards Season Fashion Edit: BAFTAs 2020

For the past half a decade or so, the highlight of my calendar hasn’t been the long stream of Fashion Weeks, it’s not been Christmas, nor is my birthday even the top of my absolutely the best time of year list, it’s been, and still is, Awards Season.

The time of year where the red carpets are more televised than the awards shows, when everybody who is anybody is asked, “Who are you wearing?”, and not “Who do you want to see winning in X category?”, the fashion is almost as important as the accolades and celebration of film, television and music across the globe.

However, this year’s BAFTA’s have left me with a somewhat dimmed glee as the list of attendees walked the length of the red carpet, past the seemingly tame press pit and up the steps leading towards the Royal Albert Hall. The looks last Sunday were somewhat safe and less thrilling than what was seen Stateside at the SAG Awards or the Golden Globes just a few weeks ago, but perhaps everyone is opting to dazzle and impress the larger crowds of the Oscars in LA this Sunday. With that being said, I’m definitely not down-playing some of the stunning fashion highlights of the most prestigious British Film Awards, it’d be a crime for me to say that I wasn’t impressed by some major players in the fashion stakes and talk about some of my favourite styling ensembles (can we give a major cheer for the different shade of pinks we were blessed with?), whilst brushing over some of those… less so.

The ultimate favourites of mine, in no particular order, have to be;

Scarlett Johansson in that stunning deep pearlised pink, highly embellished and feathery Versace gown that literally made my jaw hit the floor the moment I clocked eyes on the double nominated actress.

Daisy Ridley, at first I thought she’d opted for a black, half-sheer gown, until I saw more photos and realised that it was in fact a deep teal shade that well and truly won me over. She look utterly and effortlessly beautiful with the form fitting custom made Oscar de la Renta dress complete with the sheer cape. Obsessed.

The Duchess of Cambridge always looks impeccable when she walks the length of the BAFTAs carpet (I nearly cried from the spectator pit when she walked past me in that forest-green number at the 2018 BAFTAs), but her ‘recycled’ gold and cream Alexander McQueen gown from a number of years ago looks just as incredible now as it did back in 2012.

Other favourites included Zoë Kravitz in a stunningly simple long-sleeved, gold, floor-length YSL number, Naomie Harris’ metallic silver sequinned Michael Kors gown that leads the procession of reimagined and current twenties styles and Laura Dern’s hot pink dress that gave her a youthful beauty on the red carpet. That’s not to mention Olivia Colman in her traditional awards style black embellished and sheer sleeved gown that is now synonymous with the BAFTA and Oscar winner, Charlize Theron dazzling in a plunging, pleated chiffon, bold purple Dior dress and Emilia Clarke’s again re-imagined black sparkly, twenties style slim-strapped, scoop-necked  Schiaparelli Haute Couture gown.

Renée Zellweger was the first best dressed attendee that I fell head over heels for (and my overall favourite from the night!), that cotton-candy Prada gown softened her up beautifully and she couldn’t help but look elegant as she stepped onto the stage to accept her Best Actress award. There was something so youthful and understated about her complete look that still mesmerises me.

My controversial pick of the night has to be Florence Pugh. I’ve been hopelessly obsessed with her for the past year, so seeing her shine during awards season has been the best of the best for me. But when she stepped on the red carpet I was unsure, the colour made me give the instant thumbs up, but the rest made me unsure for a solid thirty minutes. The more pictures I saw circulating Twitter the more I leaned towards I actually really love this, however almost a week later I’m still edging on slightly unsure. I’m giving her the benefit of the doubt and keeping both thumbs up though.

And not to forget the men, my top looks were from John Boyega, Andrew Scott and Jack Lowden.

The more I talk about the BAFTAs, the more I hope (and pray and beg) that one day I’ll be invited and not having to spend time entering the ballots or running for wristbands just to be in the audience pits on the red carpet (not that I’m complaining!). Now time to be excited for the Oscars styles.

How to Build an Outdoor Fireplace Without Eating Up an Entire Weekend

How to Build an Outdoor Fireplace Without Eating Up an Entire Weekend

Outdoor furnishing is a fantastic way to provide appeal to your patio as well turn it into a more comfortable place to enjoy quiet days. Choosing furniture for the patio takes some careful considerations since it is not something you can buy everyday. Such is quite a great investment, so picking the one which will take probably the most advantage that's definitely worth the money you purchased it for is usually best. Among the many choices for patio furnishing, wood, iron, steel and plastics remain to be one of the most popular through the years. Sure wood, steel and iron makes appealing options. However, they could possess a lots of downsides too. Outdoor furnishing is consistently exposed to a lots of weather change, constant exposure to heat and rain may degrade the standard of wooden chairs. Oftentimes, if not probably the most durable materials are widely-used, the risk for breakage is always there. More so, its being expensive makes this approach quite unattractive. Steel and iron, almost in competing in price with wood, is not a suitable choice when placed outdoors since the rain as well as other climate factors could easily cause rusts in order to create.

Wooden Furniture is the most accepted type of furniture mainly because it blends within the surrounding and imparts it a natural, cozy and synchronized feel. Tables, chairs, swings, lawn bridges, rocking chairs etc all belong to Outdoor Wooden Furniture. They are readily available and can be found almost anywhere, whether it is online retailers or local stores.

Basically, the toughest moment you will find yourself in when you are furniture shopping is seeking the fitting chair. Why? For there are a lot of chairs as outlined by construction, brand name and material within the furniture shop. There are also seating according to the shape, the paint, the craft etching, and the like that can just make you lightheaded and lost. But the moment you've picked the chair of one's taste, count on me, picking out the rest of one's exterior furniture set would likely be considered a breeze.

Kate Middleton recycled an old favorite on Wednesday — a  bright red Carolina Herrera pea coat. This isn’t surprising considering the royal family’s penchant for wearing pea coats in all forms: cropped, long and flared.

The Duchess of Cambridge wore her Carolina Herrera version to visit the National Stadium in Belfast, Northern Ireland. She paired the coat with simple black tights and her signature L.K. Bennett black high-heeled booties. 

Looking back over the years, chic pea coats have become an integral part of Kate’s and Meghan Markle‘s wardrobes. The two duchesses have sported luxury versions from Miu Miu and Mackage, in a range of colors and patterns. We’ve even found that Queen Elizabeth’s rainbow spectrum of dress coats include pea coats.
