Overall crime in London is on the decrease. Street crime has
reduced by nine per cent, which is very good news and could
very well be due to the presence o community police in
London. However, the presence o knives and guns in our
communities is on the increase. The ability o police ocers
to stop and search became known as the Sus law which came
rom a part o the Vagrancy Act o 1824 that permitted police to
stop and search and even arrest anyone purely on the basis o
suspicion as a crime preventive initiative.
The law was unpopular with certain sections o the
community who elt they were being targeted. Following the
race riots o the early eighties the Sus law was dropped.
The eect, however, was that the carrying o weapons
increased. The police orce knew this was happening but could
do nothing about it. As a result, serious crime has increased
year on year.
Gun crime has already increased by nineteen per cent over
the past year. We must nd a way to empower the police orces
to resolve this problem.
The only way we can start to reduce the carrying o
weapons is or the police orce to be given some remit, which
allows them to stop and search those they suspect o being in
possession o weapons that can kill.
In the past 25 years, the police orce have developed a much
better understanding o community issues and need to work
with these communities to tackle all crime, including what has
become known as 'black on black' crime which is increasing at
an unacceptable rate.
Being searched at airports and venues is now totally
acceptable and it is now time to consider how this can be rolled
out or a saer, crime-ree London.

BroadeninghorizonsYou may have noticed a new addition to
Londons skyline emerging over the last six
months. The latest phase o the Broadgate Estate
(EC2) is under construction and, when complete,
will oer the largest speculative oce space in
the city. At 165m (540t) high, Broadgate Tower
will be the third tallest building in the City o
London, ater Tower 42 and 30 St Mary Axe.
Adjacent to the tower will be a 13-storey block
called 201 Bishopsgate.
Between the buildings there are plans or
a public space with shops, bars and caes.
Designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill,
and costing just under 300 million,
the development is constructed over the
Liverpool Street Station railway line.
Onsite, the superstructure is nished
as is 50% o the glass and stainless
steel cladding. Pencil in your moving
date or summer 2008.
LIT SHATSThe tower eatures ten high speed double decker
lits manuactured by Kone. These are the rst o their
kind in the UK.
CrANESThe cranes growtaller as each new foor is built.
Hydraulic liting rams below the arm push the craneupwards and a new mast section is lited in. Later, the
cranes are repositioned on the highest existing levels.
CrOSS brACINgTriangular bracing is used as part o the towers
aesthetics and also prevents structural twisting.

DJing on top o the Citibank building or
a TV ad, Fashion Rocks in Monaco where
I had Jay Z dancing next to me and trying
to scratch with my records he did it
twice and then I had to slap his hand
o the deck DJing in Omar Sharis
old residence in Lanzarote, which was
built into natural caves, playing a beachparty in Marbella when a riend sprayed
3,000 bottles o Cristal everywhere. Then
theres the ree rocks or high prole

I hate rubbish pub art like when
someone paints a block o MDF in red
and has the cheek to mark it up at ve
hundred. Even worse, when you see a
photo o somebody elses art scanned,
manipulated, and computer printed
hundreds o times onto canvas. I really
hate that! People should value the
concept o quality more. I only sell hand
pulled limited edition screen prints.
Each one comes out slightly dierent and
is thereore an original piece o art.
My current series eatures hybrid
creatures like hal hamster, hal washing
machine. I also do commission work
my day rate is 300 so in a couple o
days you could have a one-o illustration
or painting. Im fexible with styles
and like trying new things, but its
dicult because people oten want my
Transormers or Manga (I worked in
Japan). But whatever, it has to be better
than buying an unauthorised

It can be lonelywalking the streets
or hours at a time. But then theres
that moment when the location and the
person in the rame connect and make
something emotionally and artistically
greater than the sum o the parts.
Ive been taking pictures o people on the
streets o London or two years and I nd
it utterly compelling. Im intrigued by
people, capturing them when they dont
notice me, and when they do. I see so
much exuberance and hope in the people
I photograph but conversely theres no
doubt that at some primal level, London
drives people into themselves. It is this
that I hope to capture: people being part
o the vibrancy o the metropolis while
still waging a battle to preserve the sel.

I always liked dressing up and used
to predict ashion or the next season
when I was about six. Normally Id get
it right even though my idea o ashion
at that age was the Freemans catalogue.
By the time I went to secondary school
I knew I wanted to be a designer but we
were advised not to do anything creative
and to work in a bank. Id be lying i Isaid I dont design or me because I do!
This gold sequined slashed dress is my

W iping the sweat rom his brow as he
puts the nishing touches to a portion
o his amous Chilli Salt Squid, head
che Ian Pengelley oozes disarming
condence. Since taking over the kitchen
o Pan-Asian ber-restaurant, Gilgamesh,
hes won a Tatler Restaurant award and
wowed critics with his culinary prowess.
But his journey to the top hasnt been
plain sailing. In 2005, Pengelley was let
downtrodden, depressed and broke
when Gordon Ramsay pulled the plug on
his eponymous restaurant ater just
ten months. Gordon nally shut
Pengelleys three days beore Christmas.
Nice timing,Ian grins. I had no cash,
I was depressed, my head was all over
the place. Ater a ew months sulking,
I hit rock bottom. Then I got the call about
Gilgamesh and I knew that i I took it
on, this time Id be doing things my way.
Pengelley rst made his name at E&O, the
supercool Notting Hill restaurant where
he pioneered signature dishes includingDuck and Watermelon Salad, which he
copied rom a village in Thailand while
touring South East Asia in search o
culinary inspiration. When Ramsay
approached him to open a restaurant,
he jumped at the chance to have his
name over the door but Pengelleys was
doomed to ailure. Its atal faw seemed
to be a undamental dierence o opinion
between Ian and Gordon about how
things should be run. I didnt t in with
Gordons way o doing things. Id turn up
or work in jeans and fip-fops thats
not what he expected. He wanted a headche whod toe the line. Thats not me.
I wanted that laid back Eastern vibe but
Pengelleys had the look and eel o a
cold, sti ne dining room... my vision
was o something less serious and more
seductive and exciting.In Gilgamesh
he certainly seems to have ound it. My
cooking is better than ever and with ve
hundred covers a night, I have to be on
the ball. But Gilgamesh is more than good
ood. Its un, buzzy, Londons answer
to the Buddha Bar.Most importantly,
Pengelley says hes got his mojo back.
Ego is very important in my line o work
and mine had taken a battering. I elt I
had something to prove with Gilgamesh
and although Ive exceeded all my own
expectations, I know I was lucky to have
a second chance. I wont screw it up.

the behemoth that is Gilgamesh, an all-encompassing
entertainment experience eaturing a restaurant, bar, club
and teahouse rolled into one. Inspired by ancient Babylonia,
the dcor is nothing short o epic and eatures a Lapis stonebar carved by a 10,000-strong team o Indian cratsmen,
pillars studded with semi-precious stones, a 40t ceiling
and a retractable glass roo. Ian Pengelleys Pan-Asian super
menu is complemented by a 30-strong Sake list a Sake

teahouse has a Mandarin speaking tea expert. Gilgamesh is
named ater an ancient Bablyonian king who was reputed
to be one-third human, two-thirds god. Most will agree
that this temple o supreme decadence is indeed out o this

Weve all done it, havent we? And
i you havent, you will shortly,
believe me.
There you are, having a perectly
normal threeway email correspondence
with, say, a colleague in the oce, and
a business associate rom another
company. Things are going well until
the business associate (who shall now
be reerred to only as Moronic Idiot
Woman) sends your colleague an email
o such proound stupidity that theypass it on to you, just to make you gag.
And you, immediately enraged (how
dumb is she?!), instantly reply, applying
to Moronic Idiot Woman a variety o
impressive insults and using an even
more impressive litany o proanities.
Though o course you havent just sent
it to your colleague. You (and I think you
should now start reerring to yoursel
simply as Moronic Idiot Man) have
accidentally, and irrevocably, sent
it straight to Moronic Idiot Woman.
Who, understandably, now wants nothing
to do with you. Or the company you workor. In act she and her company want
to start having nothing to do with
you immediately.
Happened to you? Happened to
me. Bizarrely, email hasnt quite yet
assumed the importance and gravitas it
ought to have done. Even though it has
outstripped the competition to become
the most common orm o business
communication, we still tend to treat
it in a fippant, occasionally dismissive
manner. Weird, isnt it how we can be
so casual about a orm o communication
that will soon replace all others?
There are some people who, rather
endearingly, still treat email like regular
mail, composing letters containing the
ull address and title o the recipientas well as the sender, using the same
convoluted grammar you nd in any
nineteenth-century correspondence.
I rather like these people, even though
their numbers dwindle by the month.
And then there are Americans, some o
whom treat email with barely disguised
contempt. I remember a ew years ago
when I worked on a Sunday supplement,
a member o our eatures team sending
an especially long email to an inamously
taciturn Hollywood agent, requesting an
interview and a photo session with one o
his more amous charges. I I rememberrightly, and I think I do, the request ran
to several pages, outlining just what a
superb idea it would be i **** ****** were
to appear on our cover. Not only did it
take the agent over a week to reply, but
the response was also inspiringly curt.
Id worked with Hollywood agents or
years, and knew how dismissive they
could be, but even I was shocked by this
new reply. Just our words: I dont think
so. O course it would have taken her
a little less time to just write No,
but somehow I dont think so possessed
slightly more malice while also implyingthe perect amount o sarcastic disdain
(I could almost hear her say it).
Most people, however, lie somewhere
between the two on the one hand
treating email like a slightly less ormal
letter, and on the other using it as they
would a phone. Me, I try to condense
everything into a perect paragraph,

Hormones:the key
to weightloss?WHERE YOU STORE FAT IS AN INDICATOR OFYOUR HORMONAL PROFILE, SO SAYS RENOWNEDSTRENGTH COACH, CHARLES POLIQUIN. NEW TO THEUK, HIS SCIENTIFIC BIOSIGNATURE SYSTEM PROMISESTO BALANCE HORMONES, BURN FAT AND E VENTARGET SPECIFIC PROBLEM AREAS.
30|add lib
Forget everything youve ever been
told about weight loss, sayspersonal trainer, Denis Murphy.
Methods like calorie counting and
cardio might work in the short term but
to keep weight o you need to control
your hormones. Do this, and not only will
you lose weight, you can even target at
in specic areas.Spot reduction
is the holy grail o weight loss, something
generally considered to be unachievable
(despite the many miracle creams
claiming otherwise). Although most
trainers will vow to help you lower your
BMI or drop a dress size, none worth
their salt would dare to suggest that theymight be able to shit cellulite or get rid
o a pot belly without overall reduction.
Until now.
Earlier this year Denis Murphy
travelled to Arizona to meet the worlds
oremost strength coach and Olympic
medalist trainer, Charles Poliquin,
to learn about his Biosignature system,

can cause unwanted at pockets, which
resist both diet and exercise. He reers
to post-menopausal women as urther
testament. Women nd it notoriously
hard to lose weight ater menopause and
its hormones that are to blame.
Poliquin says that a trained
Biosignature coach should only need
to measure twelve specic skinolds to
ascertain an individuals hormonal proleand make the necessary diet, exercise
and supplement recommendations. Some
people have just one problem area, while
others have several, so recommendations
may overlap.
I you have excess at around your
belly you almost certainly have an issue
with cortisol, the stress hormone
released by your adrenal gland.
You need to balance your blood sugar by
reducing rened carbohydrates and may
be advised to take Holy Basil to regulate
cortisol production. I you have at on
the back or iliac crest (love handles)you cannot metabolise carbohydrates
and may have a problem circulating
insulin so a lower carb diet made up o
requent, smaller meals is recommended
along with supplements such as Grape
Seed and Fenugreek to control insulin
levels. Fat around the ribs indicates a
thyroid imbalance; you may benet rom
Bladderwrack, which contains Iodine,
Zinc and Selenenium to balance the
thyroid. Excess at on the thighs is a sign
o estrogen dominance in women so DIM,
a supplement derived rom crucierous
vegetables (which have estrogen-detoxingbiochemicals), is suggested. I you have
at around your knees or calves you may
not be secreting enough growth hormone,
which could be aecting your sleep
quality, so Glutamine, an amino acid,
might help. Everyone is recommended a
quality multivitamin/mineral supplement
as well as highly puried sh oils.

According to Charles, prehistoric man
consumed large amounts o omega-3s
by eeding on the brains o dead animals
and these are essential or weight loss
and wellbeing. Fat, he says, is not the
enemy. In act, good ats should be eaten
abundantly. Although dierent people
need to eat dierent things, its usually a
lack o essential nutrients combined with
too many processed oods and carbs thatcauses weight issues,says Denis.
Excercise wise, Poliquin vehemently
believes that sweating it out on the
treadmill is a mistake. Although it
does strengthen the heart, the body
isnt built or extended periods o
cardio,says Denis. Interval training
i.e. interspersing slow and ast cycling is
good, but prolonged cardio stimulates the
adrenal glands to food the system with
cortisol. This causes body-wide stress
response, which, over time can eat away
at muscles, nerves and brain cells.
Weight training is recommended oreveryone. The more muscle you have,
the more eectively you burn at,says
Denis. The program recommends that
exercise is used in conjunction with the
diet and supplement recommendations
but according to Denis, in some cases
the diet plan and supplements alone can
yield remarkable results. One o my
clients lost seven pounds in two weeks.
According to Poliquin balancing your
hormones is much more than a weight
issue. He believes 90% o all disease can
be controlled by regulating your adrenal
glands and pancreas. Skeptics may balkbut Charles is set to teach Biosignature to
a group o 5,000 doctors this year.
The medical establishment is notoriously
suspicious o advice rom the tness
industry,says Denis, so Id say that
speaks volumes.For a consultation or
more on Biosignature call FitnessID on
0796 6783 968 and ask for Denis or Dan.
a scientic approach to at loss and
spot reduction, which recommends diet,
exercise and unctional medicine (herbsand vitamins) to suit a clients hormonal

Charles spent nearly thirty years
doing blood, urine and saliva tests while
working with proessional athletes
and Olympic medalists,says Denis,
who trains celebrities including Derren
Brown and Ruus Wainwright. During
his extensive research into improving
perormance among the athletic elite,
Charles discovered a link between
stubborn areas o at and imbalancesin body biochemistry, especially those
related to hormones. Although genetics
must be taken into account there is
no doubt that site-specic at storage
