Savio Kwan GLS 2010 interview 7.1 Summary of Sections 1–3 In summary, this unit has endeavoured to substantiate a variety of related points which epitomise current trends and problems in governing European diversity. ‘Regions’ and ‘regionalism’ in Western Europe display great diversity in economic, social and cultural terms, within particular states as well as between states; regions vary widely in size, population, levels of development, history, identity and politics (or lack thereof). But since the heyday of the centralise 6.3 Summary None of the three models – national, federal or regional – can adequately capture the complexity of the multifaceted Europe of today. Each implies an exclusive distribution of power between the levels of territorial governance that is too simplistic. We need to think in terms of qualitative changes in the relationships within and between the levels and see them as being linked in multi-layered structures of governance. 5.1 Introduction The significance of regionalism hinges on empirical questions about the probable future of the EU and normative questions about the (un)desirability of different models for the future. A return to the traditional ‘Europe of Nations’ (that is, nation states) model is improbable precisely because of the growth of regionalism, as well as the firm establishment of the central institutions of the EU. On the other hand, because of the continuing power of states and their major say in Europ 1.1 Examples Introduction 1st National Symposium on Translational Psychiatry - Welcome and overview Prof Helen Christensen & Dr Kathy Griffiths - From population trials to public health practice Professor Malcolm Horne - Plasma alpha synuclein as risk marker for Parkinsons White leafy seadragon Hundreds of mussels attached to rocks in the rocky intertidal zone Mars Odyssey: Water Ice-Winter Observations

This seadragon is white with a light pattern. It has a snout (right end) and the back end is to the left. Seadragons can't hold onto sea plants like seahorses can. It has some fins along its back that it uses to propel itself and move around in the water. The leafy parts are only used to blend in and look like seaweed.
Mussels have two hard shells for protection and avoid drying out. When the shell is open, the bivalve extends its foot for digging or anchoring. Mussels need ocean water for food. They are found in lower and middle intertidal regions.
NASAs Mars Odyssey detected water ice in the northern hemisphere. During the winter months, the icy soil is covered by a thick layer of carbon dioxide (dry ice) frost obscuring the water ice signature. This animation is match-framed to #2778 and #2780. It shows the areas of ice during a Martian winter.
