{St Andrew's RC Church}

St Andrew's is the church of the Roman Catholic homonymous parish located in the east end of Newcastle upon Tyne city centre. St Andrew's church is located in Worswick Street and is listed as a Grade II building.

History
St Andrew's was the very first Roman Catholic parish to be establish in Newcastle after the Reformation. It was in 1798 when Fr James Worswick arrived to Newcastle to found St Andrew's in Pilgrim Street and the cathedral in Clayton Street. The present building was built in 1875 with a mid-Victorian style.

The church
The present building was built in 1875

The new church, with capacity for a thousand attendees, was built by 1875 with a mid-Victorian style by E W Pugin (son of A W Pugin). It possesses several stained windows in different artistic styles; many of the features of a typical Catholic church can be found such as the tabernacle, the fourteen stations of the cross (from 1902), a number of statues of saints including St Andrew and a copy of La Pietá, among others. Behind the sanctuary three stained glass windows depict St Edward, St Andrew, Virgin & child, St Joseph, St James, and St Charles. There is also an organ Harrison & Harrison from 1894.

Gómez Palacio
In the middle of the desert Mexican Plateau, the most northerly city of the Comarca Lagunera, Gómez Palacio started around 1898 in which nowadays is Santa Rosa neighbourhood. The early community was formed by the rail workers stationed in the railroad switch hub in the Panamerican route. Santa Rosa bloomed when more roads were built during the mandate of Francisco Gómez Palacio as governor of Durango. The population grew neighbouring the older villa of Lerdo de Tejada and, shortly, Torreón, on the other side of the Nazas River.

Historically, the best things about Gómez Palacio:
 * Railroad switch fields
 * Desert
 * El Calor

Environmental outlook
Recently, researchers have developed new polycarbonates, such as poly(propylene oxide) carbonate and poly(cyclohexene oxide) carbonate based on oxiranes and carbon dioxide. This kind of research came from the idea of utilising carbon dioxide and other cheap or sustainable compounds to create materials with lower environmental impact. Another oxirane derived from citric waste, limonene oxide, has been proposed to make polymers completely devoid of oil products.
