Unreferenced date January 2007 A sink estate is a United Kingdom British council housing estate characterised by high levels of economic and social deprivation. Such estates are not always high crime areas although there is a strong correlation between crime rates and sink estates in large urban areas. Sink estates are predominantly found in North and East London including North West North East and in the boroughs of Camden, Islington, Haringey, Newham, Tower Hamlets and Hackney. Thus, the Harefield, Southampton Harefield estate on the edge of Southampton was a sink estate in the last quarter of the twentieth century even though its crime rate was significantly lower than that of inner city areas. In London, however, all the no go areas such as the estates in North Peckham Peckham before its regeneration, Harlesden or Gospel Oak are sink estates. The West Midlands county West Midlands has been home to numerous sink estates, although many of these have been regenerated or are in the process of regeneration. These include the notorious Castle Vale in Birmingham , Galton Village in Smethwick in Birmingham , Hateley Heath in West Bromwich Birmingham , Low Hill in Wolverhampton , Priory Estate in Dudley , Chapel Street Estate Chapel Street in Brierley Hill and Goscote, West Midlands Goscote in Walsall . Sink estates in northern England include Stockbridge Village in Liverpool , Halton Moor in Leeds , Manor Estate in Sheffield and the now demolished Hulme Hulme Crescents in Manchester . Many sink estates were created by the demolition of old slum properties in the 1920s and 1930s and the wholesale moving of the tenants on to new council estates. The origin and meaning of the term sink estate is unknown, although it is believed it may refer to being at the depths of society. The phrase came into usage in the 1970s, and was probably a term coined by journalists. http www.phrases.org.uk ... news.bbc.co.uk 1 hi magazine 7318556.stm article .

This is commonly implemented in C as Callback computer science callbacks . Object oriented languages, such as Java programming language Java and C Sharp programming language C , have built in support for sinks by allowing events to be fired to delegate functions. It can also be considered the end point or output point. For example, a buffer stream would often have a source where you put the data into and a sink where the data gets written out to . Another way of thinking about it could be like a black hole the source is where everything gets sucked in and the sink is where it all gets spit out at the other end. You will often see this in C and hardware related programming. The word sink has been used for both input and output in the industry.

Interstate 80 passes along the northwest side of the sink. The sink has no natural outlet. A channel connecting it with the Carson Sink was cut by the Nevada Department of Transportation in 1984 to prevent Interstate 80 and the town of Lovelock, Nevada Lovelock from flooding due to heavy snowfall in the preceding three years. This channel has been dry since 1986.
