London (spring 2005) - Georgian and Victorian London was devastated by the Luftwaffe during the WWII. After the war, ugly housing and low-cost developments were thrown up on the bomb sites. In the 1980s, decade of Thatcherite confidence and deregulation, the Docklands were rediscovered by a new wave of property developers, who proved to be only marginally more discriminating than the Luftwaffe. London regained its swinging reputation in the 1990s with Tony Blair and Ken Livingstone (May 2000). The face of the city changed with the construction of the Millennium Dome, the London Eye observation wheel, the Tate Modern and the creation of the British Museum's Great Court. However, London's cost of living outdoes itself year after year; the gap between the haves and have-nots looms ever larger.
Oxford and Cambridge (spring 2006) - The University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge, collectively known as Oxbridge, are the two oldest and most famous universities in Britain. Both were founded more than 750 years ago, and between them have produced a large number of Britain's most prominent scientists, writers, and politicians. The competition between Oxford and Cambridge also has a long history, dating back to the days when Cambridge was founded by dissident scholars from Oxford.
