The Rock
Article Abstract:
Ayers Rock in the Northern Territory of Australia has played a key role in local culture for many generations, but has only really been renowned internationally since the 1960s, when the construction of an airport nearby made it possible for tourists to visit relatively easily. Ayers Rock has a strongly architectural quality, especially as it is set on clean horizon. In contrast, the nearby formation known as the Olgas is more grotesque.

The identity crisis
Article Abstract:
The terrorist attacks in the US have made it increasingly likely that identity cards will be introduced in the UK. It is argued that introducing identity cards would be no more than a gesture by the government to try to show that it is tackling terrorism.
