Jesse James, reality TV star husband of Sandra Bullock, has won the latest battle in the ongoing custody feud he’s had with his ex-wife, Janine Lindemulder.

Get a close-up view of celebs in the spotlight, from Amy Adams to Ashton Kutcher.

The story of his own life – a journey that took him as an abandoned and terrified five-year-old into the terrifying jungle of the Los Angeles underworld and on through the bestial US penal system – is perhaps his greatest achievement. They recognise him for what he is, an accomplished and important American writer, and give him the respect he deserves.But it will not only be for the four dark and powerful novels he has written in the past 25 years, which have been compared to the work of Dostoevsky and Camus, that future historians and critics will remember him. Even the cynical movers and shakers of the movie business never took liberties with him. There are smart men at the heart of that mad, excessive industry, and they know the real thing when they see it. He just drank me in, then used me in two great movies.”But Bunker was never just an old lag, studied like a tame animal and mined for authenticity by Hollywood’s counter-feit tough-guys. “He got everything about me, the way I talked, the way I moved my hands, my eyes, the way I walked, the way I laughed God-dammit, he even began to look like me We practically lived together for months He never took his eyes off me.

And in Voight’s magnificent performances as the demonic jailbreaker in Runaway Train or as the shadowy criminal fixer in Heat, you see and hear his scary mirror image.”Watching those two Voight performances was the creepiest thing I ever saw in my life,” said Eddie. Watch Hoffman as a reformed con in Straight Time and you see a young Bunker emerging from the penitentiary for the first of many times. De Niro, Hoffman and Voight have sought him out again and again for over 20 years in order to spend weeks and months at a time in his company, listening to his speech patterns, writing down his esoteric, street-criminal’s patois, studying his movements – and transferring this material to the screen.Look at De Niro in the movie Heat, and you see and hear Eddie the ruthless armed robber. And the strange thing is that as the camera hovers and glides through the long, brilliant sequence of the bank-robbers breakfasting in a diner before the great orgy of blood-letting begins, it is to the face of Eddie Bunker that your eyes are most drawn.Actors understand this power. And Martin Scorsese and Quentin Tarantino are fervent admirers.Tarantino’s almost childish veneration for Bunker was such that he refused to go ahead with Reservoir Dogs until Bunker could be tracked down to play a tiny but key cameo role. He played Mr Blue, the frozen, haunted, cruel and unknown face among a line-up of the finest character actors in the world.

Robert De Niro, Dustin Hoffman and Jon Voight have all based portrayals of violence on him. Others describe him as one of the great originals of the old game. The chances are you have never heard the name, and think I am exaggerating. But a look at only a few of his countless friends and admirers will give you an idea of his fame.Elmore Leonard and James Ellroy, the world’s biggest-selling crime writers, acknowledge a huge debt to Bunker’s early novels, written 25 years ago and still in print – in fact, both have described him as the greatest living American crime writer. In the American-dominated, multi-billion- dollar industry of crime literature and films, the name of Eddie Bunker is revered above most others. Those who know and understand these things become hushed at the mere mention of his name Some call him, simply, The Man. Just another wannabe celebrity being touted around London by a PR company trying to flog a ghost-written slice of blood and gore.You would be wrong on all counts.

Such agencies, it says, “are commercial ventures whose interests cannot necessarily be assumed to be the same as those of their UK clients”.The code rightly stresses that overseas students registered under UK collaborative arrangements, and their parental or other sponsors, “expect to receive good value for the considerable sums of money” they invest. Therefore, financial arrangements should “provide safeguards against … Many private institutions abroad “have as their principal objective the maximisation of profit”. In selecting partner institutions overseas, it states, a UK institution “should look for firm evidence of the financial security and probity of the proposed partner”. Stories circulating within the British higher-education system suggest that a minority of British institutions have been giving the sector a bad reputation abroad. One British university, for example, franchised a law degree to a private UK-based law college, which then “refranchised” the degree to the Far East, where the person in charge of it was himself registered for a British law degree.If this is an extreme and isolated case, there are, unfortunately, others which suggest that overseas students, registered on British collaborative courses, are being shortchanged and left with only a dim perception of the responsibility the British parent institution has for them.Two HEQC fact-finding missions to Europe and the Far East last summer confirmed that the reputation of UK higher education was being jeopardised by a small number of institutions that were not taking enough care to ensure the quality and standards of their validated and franchised programmes overseas were adequately safeguarded.A Code of Practice issued by the HEQC in October provides further clues as to the nature of its concerns.

These courses, too, will be the subject of overseas audit visits.But it is not only the sheer expansion of overseas links that has led the HEQC to authorise overseas audits. In addition, many British universities offer the guarantee of a place on one of their own, UK-based undergraduate programmes to students successfully completing “foundation” courses at overseas institutions. These range from degree programmes run jointly by two or more universities – one based in the UK and one abroad – to certificate and diploma programmes offered by overseas private colleges, which a British university has agreed to validate.Every overseas student registered on a collaborative programme is, formally, a student of the parent British university: the degrees or diplomas they receive will bear its insignia. Should any British university, or overseas partner institution, refuse to permit a visit to take place, this fact, too, will be published.
“Overseas collaborative provisions” is big business The HEQC puts the number of such links at hundreds. Each group will spend two weeks at six or seven institutions, and will produce a report of about 2,000 words on each institution These reports will be published. Groups of specially trained academic auditors will visit Greece, Spain, Hong Kong and Taiwan, and Singapore and Malaysia. Next April, the Higher Education Quality Council will begin making formal inquiries into how British universities assure the quality of academic programmes that they franchise to institutions abroad, or that – though designed by overseas institutions – they validate.

An area of water either was or was not an estuary regardless of what it would cost to treat waste water discharged into it.The cost-based approach vitiated the decisions in these cases and they should be quashed.Paul Magrath, Barrister. If it had intended salinity or topography to be used, it could have said so Member states had a discretion. But there had to be a genuine and rational assessment in each case of what actually constitutes the estuary having regard to the characteristics of the area of water in question and the purpose of the Directive.The cost of treating waste water was not a consideration relevant to that exercise. They argued that in fixing estuarine limits objective criteria such as water salinity and topographical features should be used.The Secretary of State submitted there was nothing wrong in using the man-made topographical features of bridges to define the limits, and that he was permitted in his discretion to establish the limits in such a way as to avoid extra cost where there would be no adverse environmental effect.Article 2 did not specify any criteria to be applied when establishing an outer estuarine limit.

In such areas, primary treatment was only permissible in respect of discharges into high natural dispersion areas within coastal, as opposed to estuarine, waters.The Secretary of State designated the Humber Bridge and the Severn Road Bridge as the outer estuarine limits of the respective rivers, and the waters of the Humber estuary and of Avonmouth/Portishead and Kingston Seymour in the Severn estuary as high natural dispersion areas.The applicants contended that this would allow waste water discharged into the Humber and Severn estuaries beyond the designated limits to be subjected to primary treatment only, on the basis that it was being discharged into high natural dispersion areas within coastal waters. All the relevant discharges within the applicants’ jurisdictions were from agglomerations of more than 10,000PE. The Directive and Regulations required secondary treatment, which was more stringent and expensive, as the norm. Establishment of the outer estuarine limits and indentification of directly affected the question whether primary or secondary treatment was required.An “estuary” was defined in article 2 of the Directive as the “transitional area at the mouth of a river between fresh water and coastal waters,” and “coastal waters” as those “outside the low-water line or the outer limit of an estuary.”Secondary treatment was required under the Directive for all discharges into estuaries from “agglomerations”, or concentrations of population and economic activity, above a “population equivalent” or PE level of 10,000. The respective applications were brought by Kingston upon Hull City Council and by Bristol City Council and Woodspring District Council.Genevra Caws QC, Philip Sands and Jonathan Marks (P.M Barker, Kingston upon Hull; D Lewis, Bristol; and T.

But despite its location, St Katherine’s has failed, as one resident put it, to shine as brightly as it might have done, and hasn’t the appeal of Shad Thames over the water.Tom MacQuillan, of Taylor Woodrow, believes their plans to replace the “grey, grotesque and uninspiring Europe House” – with a Richard Rogers design to include retail and office space will draw many more people in.The arrival of the Jubilee line was always the point at which many pundits predicted that Docklands might start to look more attractive than Putney or Fulham as good quality flats with long leases, river views and parking draw disaffected owners away from the traditional residential areas. There is so much demand that we have only two new apartments for sale overlooking the river at present.”At St Katherine’s Dock, Taylor Woodrow’s City Quay development has just sold out. And more people are staying here during weekends which makes it far more lively and appealing. Wapping’s crying out for them.”Until recently when the inevitable concerns about schooling came to bear, he and his family were living in Limehouse “It is peaceful and surprisingly good for small children. This is not lost on buyers, and I’ve sold 12 properties at pounds 1m plus this year against seven in the previous 10 years But we do need to see some more restaurants and small shops.

He planned the infrastructure: it is far more successful than the piecemeal incremental refurbishment of warehouses we saw at Wapping. Value wise they are on a par, even though Shad Thames is south of the river.”Until now Docklands was lagging behind the rest of London, but with the extension of the Jubilee line and demand for new high-spec homes, the focus has shifted eastwards. Russell Taylor of FPD Savills still believes it is undervalued. “Consider how much further pounds 600,000 or pounds 700,000 will go than in Kensington. According to Yolande Barnes, head of research at FPD Savills, it is this as much as its views over Tower Bridge that makes Shad Thames stand apart “Owners there are reaping the benefit of what Conran put in. “Good quality apartments are selling amazingly well and now there is a shortage in the most popular areas.

Anything on the river between Wandsworth and Tower bridges and you can expect to pay premium prices.” Close to the Tower that means pounds 400 to pounds 550 a square foot, whereas further from the prime sites and in buildings without a river view pounds 300 to pounds 350 is more usual.The search for a village atmosphere drives the market much as it does anywhere in Britain. “You are paying for the best-known warehouse location in London,” says Tom Marshall of Cluttons Daniel Smith. “Americans ask to go there even if they don’t know what it is.”In the past few months he has seen an enormous demand for riverside homes, a very different picture from the middle of the year. Bathrooms have the distinctive Philippe Starck- designed fittings.Design and location command high prices and a one-bedroom flat is from pounds 425,000, and a two-bedroom pounds 850,000.

At the front of the living room, overlooking Tower Bridge, a raised platform alongside a hinged window that hooks out of the way, brings the feel of alfresco eating under cover. At the touch of a button, panels can close off the main living room from a wide corridor, part of which can itself be enclosed to make an extra bedroom. The group’s refurbishment turned into a radical refit that’s transformed the flats with an architectural flair that will see them well into the 21st century.Any loss of old warehouse ambience is compensated by the clever use of space Light from front and back windows is unobstructed. Revamped and revitalised, a two-bedroom apartment in this listed building overlooking Tower Bridge is about 20 times the figure agreed on a handshake some 15 years ago.
It is hard to recall that something of a pioneering spirit was needed then, that even those who made a modest investment in a property had their faith severely tested during the recession when Docklands prices fell sharply. The most influential investor was, of course, Sir Terence Conran who put the area on to the map with the Pont de la Tour restaurant complex and encouraged shops, galleries and developers to follow in his wake.It is an irony that his Butler’s Wharf company collapsed at the end of the Eighties before the homes were sold, and were let out by its new Danish owners before being bought by the Prestbury Group earlier this year.

Unusual anywhere, but particularly in an area that has become one of the smartest spots on the Thames. Just round the corner from that flat is Butler’s Wharf, probably the most famous warehouse on the river, where prices are setting new records. The owners can testify to that, having their own handsome grand piano standing in the window bay of the drawing room. The house was once owned by Winston Churchill’s cousin, Clare Sheridan, the sculptor and writer.
