  • The writer, essayist and philosopher Alain de Botton stands in front of a mural of a Soyuz rocket of the Russian Federal Space Agency (Roskosmos) taking off from a mobile gantry at the European Space Agency (ESA). De Botton is in French Guiana researching his book 'The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work' published in April 2009. The illustration celebrates a future Russian mission if construction of their new facilities continues with the help of the French and other space agencies. Cosmonauts and technicians will ooccupy a purpose-built town near ESA's rocket complex. Alain de Botton (born Zurich, 1969) now lives in London. His best-selling books refer both to his own experiences and ideas- and those of artists, philosophers and thinkers. It's a style of writing that has been termed a 'philosophy of everyday life.'

Road safety campaigners have called for a ban on some HGVs especially construction lorries, recommending them to be banned from Londons streets due to high numbers of fatal accidents with cyclists and pedestrians.

  • Two construction workers wash after a long shift constructing Hong Kong's new airport on Chep Lap Kok Island. With their backs turned to the viewer, the workmen attend to their hygiene at a makeshift washhouse attached to a yellow shipping container. One man reaches to wash between his shoulder blades and the other rinses his forearms. The island has been inhabited on and off since the Middle Neolithic period 6,000 years ago and the airport was built on a large artificial island formed by levelling Chek Lap Kok and Lam Chau islands (3.02 km² and 0.08 km² respectively), and reclaiming 9.38 km² of the adjacent seabed. The original farming and fishing villages on the island were relocated to Chek Lap Kok Village on Lantau. The core programme cost more than $20bn and involved four major sponsors, ten separate projects and 225 construction contracts.
