What is the difference between traditional and modern irrigation?
1) traditional method of irrigation is time consuming, but modern method of irrigation is time saving.
2)In traditional method of irrigation water is wasted, but in the modern methods of irrigation (best example is drip irrigation) water is not wasted..
What is waterlogged soil?
Waterlogged soils exclude oxygen from the roots thus causing decline of the plants. What happens is the roots die off leaving the plant unable to uptake the needed moisture and nutrients for proper plant growth. Symptoms of water damage include: wilted appearance, rotting at the base and.
What are the impacts of smart agriculture?
Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) improves agricultural productivity and enhance farm income on a sustainable basis, enhance water and nutrients use efficiency, resilient to climatic stresses, and lowering the emissions of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) to a minimum level.
What are the direct benefits of irrigation?
The direct benefits of irrigation are measured in term of improved agricultural (crop) productivity, increased farm income, and so on.
How does irrigation affect climate?
This impact, seen in dry years especially, affects the layer of air closest to Earth, which is most susceptible to heat exchange and evaporation from the Earth’s surface. Their findings show that irrigation may play a role in forming shallow clouds, which alter the local climate.
What are the pros and cons of using furrow irrigation?
Advantages to furrow irrigation include lower initial investment of equipment and lower pumping costs per acre-inch of water pumped. Disadvantages include greater labor costs and lower application efficiency compared to sprinkler and subsurface drip irrigation.
What is irrigation and its advantages and disadvantages?
By eliminating the deficiency of water, Irrigation manages to give fast manufacturing. The more production rate intensifies, the more living standard of the farmer increases. Canal and irrigation water seeps through the soil and elevates the water table. This is desirable in desiccated and semiarid zones.
What are the pros and cons of irrigation?
Drip irrigationProsConsSaves water by minimizing evaporationMethod cannot be used with high iron content water because emitters become cloggedNutrient losses from leaching is reducedMaintenance is required to keep system goingNo land grading requiredChewing on tubing from insects and rodents can cause water leaks1 more row
What are the traditional method of irrigation?
What are the Four Traditional Methods of Irrigation? Ans. They are basin, check basin, furrow and strip irrigation. Each of these methods is suited for particular crops and land-types.
What are the 4 types of irrigation?
The different types of irrigation include- sprinkler irrigation, surface irrigation, drip irrigation, sub-irrigation and manual irrigation.
Which is better drip or spray irrigation?
In general, spray irrigation systems are better for covering larger areas. Typically these areas are home to plants that do not have very precise water requirements. Drip irrigation, on the other hand, tends to be more precise in administering particular quantities of water over a given period of time.
What is the best garden irrigation system?
1. Orbit 69525 Complete Drip Irrigation Watering Kit. The Orbit 69525 is a perfect choice for the value-conscious homeowner in need of a high-quality and dependable irrigation system for keeping their plants healthy and green all through the season.
What is over irrigation?
Over irrigation is the term given to excessive use of water to irrigate plants than required which leads to water logging and is a cause of soil degradation. This practice must be prevented to avoid soil erosion and degradation.
What are the disadvantages of irrigating fields by traditional ways?
Disadvantages of Traditional Methods of Irrigation:Due to seepage in drains, wastage of water is caused.Machines cannot be used m this method because during spray of insecticides or fertilizers, the earthen walls of basins are damaged.There IS imbalance in distribution of labour. … Creation of problem of water logging.Mar 4, 2019
Is irrigation good or bad?
While bad irrigation can result in excess nutrient loss, good irrigation can reduce nitrogen loss to ground water and improve soil quality. It also has the potential to improve river flows, and reduce the risk of erosion. … As well as this, irrigation reduces any nitrogen lost to the atmosphere through volatilisation.
Why is drip irrigation bad?
Improper drip irrigation installation often culminates into poor root development and dieback. For example, looping your tubing too wide or installing a small quantity of water emitters creates drought conditions where roots continually grow – they may resort to shallow growth to find moisture and die back.
What are the advantages of modern irrigation system?
It saves a lot of water, which can be utilized for irrigating more area. Weeds do not grow because the water reaches directly to the plants and do not spread anywhere on the field. Crop yield is increased in this method. The area near the plants is dry so bacterial growth is limited.
What causes over irrigation?
Salinity from irrigation can occur over time wherever irrigation occurs, since almost all water (even natural rainfall) contains some dissolved salts. … Since soil salinity makes it more difficult for plants to absorb soil moisture, these salts must be leached out of the plant root zone by applying additional water.
Which irrigation method is the most efficient?
drip irrigationFor watering large areas of farmland, drip irrigation is the most efficient irrigation system for reducing water and fertilizer loss. By filtering the water down through the soil and into the root system, some of the water percolates down into the groundwater system to be reused for irrigating in future years.
What are the disadvantages of irrigation in agriculture?
Disadvantages include increased risk of plant disease due to wet foliage, although early morning watering reduces that risk. Also, winds often blow overhead sprays off target, wasting misdirected water and increasing evaporation. Runoff due to overwatering and nearby concrete add to water loss.
What are the disadvantages of excessive irrigation?
Harmful effects of excessive irrigation:Excess of water in soil leads to water logging.Sometimes, it inhibits the process of germination.Roots do not grow properly in a standing water field.Excess irrigation destroys standing crops.Increases the amount of salt on the surface soil as water evaporates.May 12, 2015

A mash-up is a theatre-style larp where a mix of historical and fictional characters and tropes from a broad historical era are improbably combined in one place as a deliberate design decision. For example, The Great Exhibition is set in 1851, but combines characters such as William Gladstone, Benjamin Disraeli, Robert E Lee, Sherlock Holmes, Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison, spanning a period from 1850 - 1900. Flight of the Hindenburg combines historical and pulp characters aboard the zeppelin sometime after the "War of the Worlds" broadcast (1938) but before the election of Roosevelt to the US Presidency (1933). The technique can also be used with fictional genres (e.g. Shakespeare or Jane Austen).

Attack on Titan has been heavily hyped for a long time, and as a result, it comes with high expectations in terms of quality. Given the subjective nature of any form of art, series can often fail to live up to this either because they were proclaimed to be far better than they could ever realistically be or because the characters just aren’t as well rounded as they should be.
Based on the AMVs on YouTube, you would be forgiven for thinking that Attack on Titan is simply a collection of blood stained battles with impossibly tall foes. Indeed, such scenes are not uncommon in the show and it certainly is not one for the faint of heart. In fact, the bloodshed at times nears the levels prevalent in the early success of VHS anime such as Akira and Ninja Scroll. This is not however all there is to the show.
The main characters all come with a lot of baggage and succeed in avoiding the pitfall of simply being ‘cool for cool’s sake’. Mikasa in particular embodies the modern ‘strong female lead that has long been a staple of anime, and the mix of her general drive and emotional responsiveness to the other main lead, Eren, makes her a real stand-out. In summary, the show is almost mis-sold by the bloody fan videos and an almost simplistic synopsis. Dig beneath all this and you will find a real gem of a series that more than deserves the tag of ‘modern classic’.
I love this series. Attack on Titan is a masterpiece in my opinon. The series manages to balance the somber world with hope for humanity. It has so far lived up to the hype and I hope it continues to do so. – Jiraiyan8 years ago
I absolutely agree. It was such a pleasant surprise for me, and if the second season can achieve a similar quality, I'll be very happy indeed. – mattdoylemedia8 years ago

A Grand Jury has charged 29 suspects with a three-year string of home burglaries. The gang members calling themselves Nortenos were found to have followed several people home after purchasing jewelry from local jewelry stores. They would then case their homes and later break in when the homes were empty.
All 29 defendants – indicted by a criminal grand jury last week – have been charged with felonies.
They face lengthy prison terms if convicted. Arraignments by the District Attorney’s Office were held in Department 24 at the Hall of Justice in San Jose.
“This was a prolific and well-organized group of criminals who were shattering front doors, windows, and our community’s sense of security,” said prosecutor Sandip Patel. “We would like to thank the San Jose Police Department for piecing together this complex case and bringing this gang to justice.”
It is suspected that the spree of crimes began in 2012, when a number of separate Norteno street gangs decided to band together.
During this time, they began to burglarize homes for money, jewelry, and weapons. Evidence collected at the scenes began to mount in San Jose, Union City, and Hillsborough, leading investigators to the members responsible. It was reported that a number of groups would burglarize multiple homes in a single day. Apparently, on a few occasions, the burglars’ attempts were foiled after discovering residents still in the house.
It is also speculated that on a few occasions, gang members targeted Asian-American and Middle-Eastern families thinking they were more likely to keep jewels and money in their homes.
Evidence showed that the groups would kick down the front door or smash the rear sliding glass doors leading into the home from the backyard. Members would often recruit young minors to enter the residence, knowing that the juveniles would face less serious criminal penalties if caught by police.
San Jose Police Chief Larry Esquivel said, “This department will do everything in its power to make sure residents are safe in their own homes. I’m proud that at the end of this challenging investigation, we are holding a brazen and dangerous criminal gang accountable.”
Anyone with information regarding these crimes is strongly encouraged to contact the San Jose Police Department at (408) 277-8900.


Mercedes-Benz is not affected by the diesel ban that’s been implemented in many states in India. That’s the reason why they are bullish on the luxury SUV segment in India. We recently went to Coorg to drive the all new Mercedes-Benz GLC.
The GLC is pitted against the likes of Audi Q5 and the BMW X3 in India. It’s positioned over the baby SUV, GLA by Mercedes-Benz in India. The GLC is launching in India on June 2, 2016 and we are expecting the car to be priced between Rs 50-55 lakh.
The GLC will come in India in its petrol avatar as well. The diesel engine mill on the GLC is the same engine that powers the C-Class by the company. The 2143cc diesel engine produces 170hp at @3000-4200 rpm and 400nm of torque @1400-2800 rpm. The is also capable of doing a 0-100 km/h dash in just 8.3 seconds with a top speed of 210 Km/h. But if you live in Delhi-NCR forget about owning this one till the NGT ban lifts.
For folks in Delhi-NCR, there is still hope as Mercedes-Benz will also be launching a much powerful petrol variant of the SUV. The 1991cc petrol engine has a power output of 245hp and offers 370nm of torque. It’s also faster when it comes to 0-100 km/h acceleration which it achieves in just 6.5 seconds. The top speed of the petrol variant is 222 km/h.
Both the versions are mated to a 9G-TRONIC automatic transmission that’s smooth and offer 5 different driving modes; Comfort, ECO, Sport, Sport+ and Individual. In addition the GLC is also capable to handle off-roading conditions as well. There are three different off-road modes as well on the GLC.
For safety the GLC has a five star rating by NCAP and comes with 7-airbags, ABS, ESP and ETS. The GLC will also offer two trim options for customers to choose from for its interiors.
The GLC drives just like how one will expect a Mercedes-Benz car to drive. The GLC is neither too big nor to small for an SUV and for five passengers offers a good cabin space. Overall the Mercedes-Benz GLC is the most updated luxury SUV that money can buy and is bound to give its competition the Audi Q5 and the BMW X3 a run for their money.
Watch this space for more on the Mercedes-Benz GLC.

Humans apparently like error-prone robots more than they like faultless robots. *** That’s according to new research published in Frontiers in Robotics and AI. *** The study’s researchers purposefully programmed faulty behavior into a robot’s routine. *** They wanted to see if participants would rate the faulty robot different from an error-free robot. *** They also wanted to see which reactions people show in interaction with a faulty robot. *** For the study, researchers used NAO units —- the sometimes cheeky humanoid from Softbank. *** Interestingly, the human participants ended up liking the faulty robot significantly more. *** And there were no differences in people's ratings of the robot's perceived intelligence. *** They just plain liked the error-prone bot, which probably won’t surprise fans of sci-fi. *** The neurotic C-3PO, if not exactly faulty, seems to elicit our grinning sympathy. *** It would seem we feel more positively toward things that are imperfect and human in their actions. *** These findings are significant for the field of social robotics.

Months ago I promised to share what I have learned about cardmaking and colouring.
I confess that making the images is taking longer that I had envisaged so I haven't been making many cards. Consequently my colouring still leaves a LOT to be desired. I am impacient, I go over the line, I am heavy handed with the Promarker and end up soaking the paper, which causes the paint to bleed. Need I say more?
So I am learning how to cover up the mistakes.
Here's my essential toolkit:
* White Gel Pen
* Back Pen
* Promarker Blender
* Pacience :-)
And here's my example:
Not too bad, you say? That's because you didn't look close enough.
OK, this might upset some cardmakers, so if are you soo susceptible to bad colouring, please look away...
1 - Blotches (tool used: Pacience).I coloured the face, using two shades for tan/brown colour, it turned out horrible, blotch, like the girl had a skin disease. I waited for the ink to dry completely and then recoloured again. The blotches are still visible, but the image is usable now.
2. Bleeding and mistakes (tool used: blender). Of course, some papers are not suitable for colouring with promakers, but this one is OK, it is just that I was too impacient and coloured the second time before the first wash is dry and end up soaking the paper which caused bleeding.
In most places I have just left as it is - I am short on pacience. But look in the face, right hand side. I waited until the paper was dry and gently dabbed the blender until it almost disappeared. The blender "bleaches" the colour until it mostly disapears. But be careful as if you do too much, you might erase the bits inside the line too.
3. Bleeding (tool used: gel pen). The little glint in the right eye became brown - I repainted it white with the White Gel Pen.
4.Bad choices (tool used: pens). I coloured a bit of the collar in pink and then I didn't like it at all, so I covered with it white gel pen. And then added little black dots around the collar, so that the fix didn't look that obvious.
The black gen pen is an essencial for me, as I can add more detail if I whish.
5. Bad Stamping: I can't stamp well, that's what got me into digital stamps :-)

In recent years, the field of wearable health technology has witnessed a remarkable evolution. These devices, once limited to simple pedometers and heart rate monitors, have transformed into sophisticated health tools that offer a wide range of capabilities. From tracking vital signs to monitoring chronic conditions and even detecting early signs of diseases, wearable health tech devices have become indispensable for individuals and healthcare professionals alike. In this article, we will explore the evolution of these devices and their impact on personal health management and the healthcare industry.
The Early Days: Basic Fitness Tracking
Pedometers and Heart Rate Monitors The initial wearable health tech devices focused primarily on fitness tracking. Pedometers, introduced in the early 20th century, counted steps to help users monitor their daily physical activity. Over time, these devices evolved to include heart rate monitors, which provided insights into exercise intensity and calorie expenditure.
Limited Data and Connectivity Early devices lacked advanced sensors and connectivity features. Users had to manually record and analyze data, which made it challenging to gain comprehensive insights into their health and fitness.
Smartwatches: A Game-Changer
Convergence of Technology The introduction of smartwatches marked a significant turning point in wearable health tech. Smartwatches combined the functionality of fitness trackers with the capabilities of smartphones, offering a seamless and integrated experience. Users could track their steps, heart rate, and sleep patterns while receiving notifications and accessing apps.
Advanced Health Sensors Modern smartwatches are equipped with a plethora of sensors, including optical heart rate sensors, accelerometers, and GPS. These sensors enable more accurate and real-time tracking of various health metrics, such as heart rate variability, sleep stages, and even blood oxygen levels.
Health and Fitness Ecosystems Smartwatches are typically part of larger health and fitness ecosystems, often paired with mobile apps and cloud-based platforms. These ecosystems allow users to store, analyze, and share their health data, fostering a more comprehensive approach to personal health management.
Disease Management and Remote Monitoring
Chronic Condition Management Wearable health tech has expanded beyond fitness tracking to chronic disease management. Devices like continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) have revolutionized the management of conditions such as diabetes. CGMs provide real-time glucose data and alerts, empowering individuals to make timely decisions about their treatment.
Remote Patient Monitoring Healthcare professionals are increasingly using wearable devices for remote patient monitoring. Patients with chronic diseases can transmit vital signs and health data to their healthcare providers in real-time. This enables timely interventions and reduces the need for frequent in-person visits.
Early Detection and Prevention
Early Warning Systems Some wearable devices are designed to detect early signs of diseases and health issues. For example, smartwatches equipped with electrocardiogram (ECG) capabilities can identify irregular heart rhythms, potentially indicating conditions like atrial fibrillation. Early detection allows for timely medical intervention and may save lives.
Sleep and Stress Tracking Wearable health tech devices now offer advanced sleep tracking and stress management features. By monitoring sleep patterns and stress levels, these devices can help individuals identify and address potential health concerns, such as sleep apnea or chronic stress, before they escalate.
The Future of Wearable Health Tech
AI and Machine Learning The future of wearable health tech is closely tied to advancements in AI and machine learning. These technologies can analyze vast amounts of health data to provide personalized insights and predictions. For example, AI-driven algorithms can identify trends in a user’s health data and provide recommendations for lifestyle modifications or medical consultations.
Integration with Healthcare Systems Wearable health tech is becoming increasingly integrated into healthcare systems. Healthcare providers can access and analyze patient data from wearable devices, streamlining diagnosis and treatment planning. This integration holds the potential to reduce healthcare costs and improve patient outcomes.
Innovation in Form Factors In addition to smartwatches, wearable health tech is diversifying in terms of form factors. From smart clothing with embedded sensors to discreet health patches and even smart glasses, innovation in form factors allows for more unobtrusive and specialized health monitoring.
The evolution of wearable health tech devices has been nothing short of remarkable. From basic fitness trackers to comprehensive health ecosystems, these devices have empowered individuals to take control of their health and well-being. Moreover, they have provided healthcare professionals with valuable tools for disease management, early detection, and remote patient monitoring. As technology continues to advance, the future of wearable health tech holds the promise of even more personalized, integrated, and effective solutions that will revolutionize healthcare and personal health management.

The first flight test of the AGM-183A ARRW failed on Monday, April 5, 2021, over the Point Mugu Sea Range.
The U.S. Air Force’s long-awaited first flight test of its hypersonic AGM-183A ARRW (Air-launched Rapid Response Weapon), a boost-glide hypersonic system being developed by Lockheed Martin, failed when “the first booster vehicle flight test encountered an issue on the aircraft and did not launch” on Apr. 5, 2021.
According to a release, a B-52H Stratofortress bomber took off and headed over the Point Mugu Sea Range intending to fire the first booster test vehicle for the AGM-183A, but the test missile was unable to complete the launch sequence and was not released by the “mothership” that returned to Edwards AFB, where it safely landed.

The test was actually “spoiled” by the presence of a NASA WB-57F and a Navy P-3 over the Pacific Ocean near the Point Mugu Sea Test Range, located southwest of Los Angeles.
Looks like today might be the day of the first hypersonic #ARRW test. NASA WB-57F orbiting at FL500. The type has been used to film missile and rocket launches. Navy Orion also in the area. pic.twitter.com/IT0lkUqZtV

In particular, the WB-57F registered N927NA, is one of the NASA Canberras based at Ellington Field, Texas, but often deployed to different bases, both within CONUS and abroad to conduct “special operations” alongside scientific research projects (on hurricanes, radiation impact on clouds, and so on). The aircraft with up to 6,000-lb payload carried and a pallet system under the main fuselage area, can fulfil a wide variety of special missions, including filming rockets and missile launches. Like the attempted first one of the AGM-183A.
For instance, in 2007 there were speculations and theories about the type of mission flown by the WB-57 in war zones fueled by pictures of the aircraft operating from Kandahar airfield in Afghanistan without the standard NASA logo and markings. Officially, the aircraft performed geophysical and remote sensing surveys as part of the U.S. aid to the Afghan reconstruction effort. The WB-57 collected AVIRIS (Airborne Visible Infra Red Imaging Spectrometer) data that could be analyzed to provide information on mineral assemblages that could aid in resource and hazards assessments.
Then, the WB-57s carried BACN – Battlefield Airborne Communications Node payloads in Afghanistan, often testing new sensors and antennas used by the BACN to relay comms between command and control centers and ground troops located within valleys and ridges in the Afghan mountains during specific testing campaigns from Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada.
In Afghanistan these unique aircraft have been used to test Northrop Grumman’s Battlefield Airborne Communications Node (BACN) a technological “gateway” system that allows aircraft with incompatible radio systems and datalinks to transfer information and communicate.
Back to the AGM-183A ARRW, the strike weapon consists of a rocket booster and hypersonic glider warhead. After being launched from an aircraft, the booster rocket accelerates to high speeds before releasing the hypersonic glide warhead payload which then glides unpowered to its target at hypersonic speeds up to Mach 20.
“The ARRW program is a rapid prototyping project aimed at delivering a conventional hypersonic weapons capability to the Warfighter in the early 2020s,” says the U.S. Air Force. “The weapon system is designed to provide combatant commanders the capability to destroy high-value, time-sensitive targets. ARRW will also expand precision-strike weapon systems’ capabilities by enabling rapid response strikes against heavily defended land targets.”
As explained in a previous article, “the Air Force is currently looking to obtain a range of capabilities in hypersonics, with a range of weapons in different size categories. As a matter of fact, the service is looking both at a larger weapon with greater range to be carried by the bombers and a smaller one with less range or payload to be carried by fighter aircraft too. An example of this was seen in the F-15EX’s renderings which featured a hypersonic missile under the fuselage’s center pylon. The introduction in service of hypersonic missiles in the next years will increase the firepower of the B-52, the first scheduled to receive the new weapons, and the B-1. Gen. Ray stated that the AGM-183 ARRW should be integrated on the B-1 as soon as possible, as the bomber is expected to perform excellently in the standoff role with the weapons carried on the external pylons.”

Democrats’ hopes to convict Trump in Senate fade, as some seek pivot to censure
Members of the U.S. Senate are now reportedly talking about a censure resolution against former President Trump after a vote earlier in the day indicated that there wasn't enough support to convict him in a trial following his impeachment earlier this month by the House.
The vote in the Senate was over the question of whether it was constitutional to hold a trial for a president who had been impeached but had already left office. Only five Republican senators, along with all 50 Democratic senators, voted that it was constitutional, while 45 Republican senators voted that it wasn't.
Axios reported on Tuesday that Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) and Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) had been talking about a possible censure resolution with each other, and with other Senate colleagues as well.
"I think it's pretty obvious from the vote today," said Collins, "that it is extraordinarily unlikely that the President will be convicted. Just do the math." she said.
The Hill reported that "Kaine is also among a group of Democrats floating trying to bar Trump from future office through the 14th Amendment. That, like a censure resolution, could pass the Senate with only 60 votes compared with impeachment's two-thirds requirement. That means that if every Democrat voted for a censure resolution, they would need the support of at least 10 Senate Republicans."

In a historic moment for Indian Football, for the first time, the Indian U-17 World Cup Squad defeated the U-17 Youth Team of Italy who have won the FIFA World Cup four times 2-0, in Arizo, Italy on Friday (May 19, 2017).
Abhijit Sarkar (31st minute) and Rahul Praveen (80th) scored for the Indians either side of the break.
India struck once in both halves to seal what is their first win in the Exposure tour of Europe that they have undertaken ahead of the U-17 World Cup in October.
The Indian boys dominated possession for a major part of the game and created more chances.
India was brisk from the beginning and gave the opposition a tough time.

They pounded their 59th home run through their first 37 games, and scored seven or more runs for the fourth consecutive game. Merrifield got things started in the fifth by pushing a bunt single past starter Jordan Montgomery .
India started positively with Komal Thatal's 8th minute strike before Aniket Jadhav came close in the 13th minute. They nearly doubled the lead in the 59th minute when Aniket rounded the keeper but failed to convert into an open goal.
In the 31st minute however, the goal for the Indian Colts came when Abhijit Sarkar's cross took a wicked deflection off the Italian defence line and ended up in the back of the opposition net to give India the lead.
In the 59 minute, Aniket missed a one versus one chance against the Italian goalkeeper after he rounded the opposition custodian up but failed to convert.
Rahul, in the 75th minute, failed to tap the ball inside the net after it bounced off the Italian goalkeeper's hands. Five minutes later he made amends for that spurned chance when he doubled India's lead with a goal from inside the box. Find us on Facebook too!

I had meant to post this last Monday but I couldn’t find the items to take photos of so I put it off thinking I would do it on Tuesday (has Monday night tips and tricks become Tuesday tips and tricks?). Well that didn’t happen either because it was late Tuesday before I found them and I had to dash off to my quilt guild meeting.
|Plastic Paper Clips|
These were something I bought thinking I could use them as an aid when I was working on something. My idea did not work (and it took me a long time to remember what the idea was but I did remember whatever it was it did not work!). And I was a little bummed because I had spent a few dollars on something that I could have spent elsewhere. Oh well!
I have since remembered what the original thought was. I came across a hexagon project I have been slowly working on and the “aha” moment came. I thought these little clips could hold my hexagons together as I stitched them to each other. That did not work. They do not open up enough to grasp the thicknesses of the fabric and the card stock.
So I put them aside thinking maybe they’ll land up in a garage sale one day.
Then the other day I was working on sorting out my ribbons that had gotten all tangled up when I thought “hey maybe I can use those clips to hold the rolled ribbon nice and neat and keep them from intertwining with each other”. So I searched for the clips and tried it out. Happy camper here! Worked on most of my loose ribbons (a few were too thick but that’s okay).
|Clips holding my ribbons nice and tidy|
Now I may just have to go and purchase some more of these!

Our value systems are unusual. It’s a consequence of how different we are as people. All of us have different preferences in the things we choose to surround ourselves with. Coffee is no different. Yet so many of us have only been privy to the tail end of coffee, and it makes our tendencies grossly misinformed. The coffee we know is a generic product that’s personalized through sweeteners & flavoring agents instead of celebrating the variety of natural flavors in the bean. Importance was never given to quality because doing so would make it harder to drive volume.
All retail coffee looks the same with no information to distinguish one from the other. Ironically, this makes sense since they all taste the same too. At Bunafr, we love the fact that people have started to recognize the lack of transparency and have begun their journey into the world of specialty coffee. We’ve been there. We know the challenge, and we’d like to be the Yoda to your Luke. The single decision that makes the most difference to the quality of your coffee is home coffee roasting. You’d be getting raw green coffee beans straight from a farmer, importer, or green coffee retailer to roasting them yourself. For a guide on how to roast at home, learn more here.
What’s the right green coffee for you? How does each one taste? Why do they taste different? Are all questions you might have, and you’d be right to ask them. If you’re looking for answers, you’re in the right place. This is a guide on how to pick the right single-origin green coffee for your preferences, regardless of how experienced you are. Here’s the full story.
Coffee thrives in the right environment. Sufficient rainfall, consistent temperatures (between 70 & 85°F) to name a few. And the bean belt is where all of these conditions are met. The belt spans a colossal 3200 miles covering over 50 countries as it stretches across the world. It passes through Africa, Asia, and the Americas among other places. Although inconclusive, looking at coffee’s origins should give you a general idea of the flavor profile. For a deeper understanding of what happens during the growth of a coffee plant, click here.
Africa is often regarded as the birthplace of coffee. The history of coffee in Ethiopia has been recorded as early as the 11th century and during this period, the coffee fruit was often consumed as a snack. Today, it’s among their primary exports. Coffees from Africa are often fruity and floral, with berry and citrus undertones. They’re known to have higher levels of acidity resulting in a refreshing, light-bodied cup of coffee. Different regions in Africa are known to have their own farming techniques, varietals, and processing methods, creating a wide range of choices for a coffee connoisseur.
Smack dab in the middle of Africa lies this tiny country that’s barely large enough to have dedicated coffee plantations, and as a result, the whole country plays that role. It’s grown wherever favorable. When coffee arrived in Burundi as a result of colonial rule in the 1920s, it was thoroughly controlled. But when they gained their independence, production was privatized. Some of the best coffees from Burundi are known for their juicy qualities with fruit & berry flavors.
Coffee from this region is heavily favored around the world and considered the perfect starter coffee because of the notably diverse indigenous varieties. With coffee ceremonies as an integral part of their culture, the country has a love for coffee that’s downright contagious, and we’re all the better for it. Different production systems like plantations, gardens, and forests create unique flavors within the bean and are celebrated for their differences. While coffee from Ethiopia can be incredibly different from each other, they’re recognized for the incredibly evident fruity, floral, citrus, and tropical flavors. The cup is undeniably elegant, complex, and delicious.
As Ethiopia’s neighbor, many would surmise that coffee made its way to Kenya soon after its discovery in Ethiopia. But against all logic, the earliest documented coffee yield was in 1896. Having been under British colonial rule like most of its neighbors, most of the produced coffee was sold in London, and control was regained in 1933 after the Coffee Act was passed. The delightfully acidic coffee complements the bright, sweet, and complex berry/fruit qualities that are found in many other African coffees.
Right above Burundi lies Rwanda. Being about the same size as Burundi, most of the country is covered in coffee farms. The geographical coincidence comes with similarities in the terrain and some associated afflictions. A certain defect is sometimes found in the beans from these two regions, and while it doesn’t influence the bean’s toxicity, it does harm the flavor. It’s not very common, but research on its eradication is already underway. Coffee cherries with broken outer skins are more likely to be tainted, and they can be separated during processing. Thanks to which their coffee enjoys widespread love for a fresh and fruity cup with red apple & red grape undertones.
For merchants or travelers moving from Ethiopia to Tanzania, going through Kenya was the quickest way to do so. But strangely enough, coffee from Ethiopia made its way to Tanzania centuries before Kenya. Coffee from this region is complex, bright, and acidic with a characteristic berry/fruit flavor.
The Goliath nation of Congo neighbors the David of Burundi and Rwanda. However, coffee production does not scale the same. Today, Congo is considered a rising star in the world of specialty coffee and is on a road that’s paved with numerous challenges. Hopes are high though because people are enchanted by the sweet, fruity, and delightfully full-bodied coffee from this region.
The Americas are the world’s largest supplier of coffee and Brazil alone is responsible for more than half of this massive industry. While the Americas drive immense volume, they also produce some of the most specialized coffee in the world with a focus on sustainability and revolutionary farming techniques. Coffee from the Americas can be broadly classified into two categories; Central American and South American. Coffee from Central America is often regarded as more traditional and is characterized by nutty & chocolatey flavors. The lower levels of acidity pair perfectly with the mellow undertones of toffee and brown sugar. South American coffees tend to vary in body and texture with chocolate and mild fruit notes. That being said, extensive research on growing and processing methods has enabled many farms in Central and South America to recreate some of the flavors from African coffee.
Brazil is the fifth largest country in the world and the largest in South America. As the world’s biggest coffee supplier for the past 150 years, the Brazilian harvest meets a third of the world’s coffee demand. This seems high but compared to its past market share of 80%, these feel like rookie numbers. In the 1820s, coffee production in Brazil boomed and the slave-driven coffee plantations were scaled further to meet the rising demand. Until the abolishment of slavery in 1888, production kept persisting on the upward trend. During this period and into the 19th century, Brazil dominated world markets and decided the price, supply, and fate of coffee everywhere. To this day, the coffee of this region is loved for its nutty and chocolatey flavors while balancing out the low acidity with a heavy body.
Among the few different exports that Colombia is known for, coffee is one of them. We’ve all have heard of Colombian coffee, and that’s because of their early marketing efforts. To this day, 100% Colombian coffee stands apart as a brand. The variety of terrains and well-defined regions for growing coffee create an ideal environment and establishment to produce coffee that has a spectrum of flavors; from a chocolatey, nutty, heavy-bodied cup with low acidity to a fruity, vibrant, light-bodied coffee.
Ever since Costa Rica gained independence from Spain, the government has encouraged its citizens to explore the world of coffee through farming. People loved this, and the benefits that came with it. To this day, Costa Rica boasts a contrasting coffee culture in comparison with most of its neighbors. This encouraged people to visit the country to experience their love for coffee, and that’s how two massive industries got intertwined; coffee and tourism. A new surge of funds in Costa Rica enabled a micro-mill boom, which lets producers provide the right care for each type of bean. Originally producing clean, sweet, light-bodied cups of coffee with citrus undertones, the new age of coffee allows for a variety of notes, body, and acidity.
The coffee from this Central American country was dismissed for the longest time. Neighboring Costa Rica, an absolute coffee powerhouse, coffee from Panama paled in comparison. All of that changed once specialty coffee enthusiasts found out about Geisha; a varietal that’s commonly found in this region. Although Geisha is originally an African varietal, it grows well in Panama. This floral coffee with citrus undertones is delicate, light-bodied, and complex. Today, Geisha coffees are regarded as a delicacy and have several unique characteristics that are celebrated. Many people say that the Panama Geisha tastes almost like tea and they drink it without any milk or sugar. Just Black!
For most countries on this list, coffee was primarily grown for the betterment of the economy. In Nicaragua, it was done out of curiosity; to find out the reason behind its success, and uncover the mysteries that it holds. Today, it bears notable significance to their economy. From the mid-1800s to the mid-1900s, they experienced an upsurge in the demand for their complex, mildly fruit-like coffee and the array of different flavors found in the different growing regions of Nicaragua.
The government of El Salvador adopted an approach to growing coffee that’s comparable to that of Costa Rica. The people of this region were incentivized to grow coffee with tax exemptions for producers. This was an active campaign in the mid-1800s, and by 1880, coffee had become the country’s main export making El Salvador the fourth largest coffee producer in the world during that period. The mildly acidic cup was renowned everywhere for its sweet and balanced taste.
The mid-1800s marked a period where the coffee of this region would become an important part of the nation’s economy. With a decline in the demand for natural indigo dyes, the nation diversified its portfolio and adapted to changing times. Coffee seeds were distributed as a part of this effort. Their introduction to coffee was made by the Jesuits in the mid-1700s. Today, the vastly different flavor possibilities of Guatemalan coffee range from a rich, chocolatey, and heavy-bodied cup to a light, sweet, and complex flavor with fruity undertones.
Most coffee-growing countries export a majority of their products, but Hawaii is different. Being the only region that’s able to engage its customers directly, its marketing strategies take an untrodden path. The well-rounded coffee of this region is lower in acidity and has more body with macadamia and other tropical flavor notes. It’s considered expensive because of labor rates and not as a reflection of its flavors.
Stories and myths have been spun around the mysterious origins of coffee in Asia. Beans being smuggled across nations, gifted to another, and the effect of coffee on the prosperity of these regions today. Today, Asian coffee is responsible for a significant percentage of the world’s coffee supply.
Coffee is one of Yemen’s age-old treasures. It has a long lineage, perhaps the longest, second only to Ethiopia. Some speculate that while the coffee fruit has its roots in Ethiopia, the coffee drink was first actualized in Yemen. During the 1700s, virtually all of the world’s coffee supply was from Yemen. It became the country’s primary source of income. The wild, complex, and distinctive flavors of the coffee are reminiscent of fermented fruit. While some people find these one-of-a-kind flavors quite charming, it’s a deal-breaker for the rest. However, the ongoing conflict makes Yemeni coffee very hard to come by. If you find some, we highly recommend trying it.
Indonesian coffee is recognized throughout the world. Especially Kopi Luwak; a method of coffee production that relies on the semi-digested coffee cherries eaten by civet cats. It’s a novelty to some, and a delicacy to others. However, Indonesian coffee wouldn’t have flourished without some help from India. The Governor of Jakarta was sent a few coffee seeds as a gift from the Dutch Governor of Malabar in India. It was grown on the island of Java and eventually made its way to Sumatra in the late 1880s. Coffee from these regions are known the world over for their unique processing techniques and the resulting flavors; a heavy body, low acidity, and undertones of earth, wood, and spice.
India had a speculative coffee history of its own; A pilgrim returning from Mecca had brought seven coffee seeds from Yemen and planted them. Since India was a region where both coffee and tea flourished, demand for Indian coffee was always short-lived. Several coffee plantations had switched to tea production, but that wasn’t enough to stop India’s coffee export. Their heavy and creamy coffees are low in acidity and tend to shy away from complexity. Monsoon Malabar is an interesting varietal that some people enjoy. The flavors in these coffees were developed from the monsoon winds on the Indian ocean when coffee was traveling from India to Europe. Today, these monsoon flavors are introduced by adopting certain processing methods.
All of the different regions above are some of the most recognized coffee from around the world. But there’s more out there.
Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee is one of the rarest in the world. The climate, environment, and altitude create a bean that’s well-balanced with nutty, cocoa, and herbal undertones.
Vietnam is the second-largest coffee producer in the world and their coffee echoes everywhere. But the coffee of this region isn’t the highest quality, typically tasting flat, woody, and without much complexity.
Mexican coffee is light-bodied and delicate with caramel, toffee, and chocolate undertones.
The region of Peru was originally known to produce clean, sweet, and heavy-bodied cups of coffee, but with new farming techniques and processing methods becoming accessible, there are juicier, complex, and more distinctive coffees to choose from.
Honduras is the largest producer in Central America, and they’re known for their fruity, juicy, and mildly acidic coffee.
Some of these are generalizations, but choosing beans based on origin is a simple and effective way to find coffee that suits your taste. Even within the same country, city, or estate, you might find coffees that taste completely different; because of differences in varietal, elevation, and processing methods. Every region in the world has something unique to offer, and out there is one that’s perfect for you. With some information about each origin, you now have the makings of a great adventure. Try new origins, evaluate the flavor, body, and texture to appreciate its characteristics. There’s no real alternative to trial and error but our coffee quiz reduces some of the guesswork.

Jetting in from Germany after tending to her Deichmann Store duties, Halle Berry was spotted hopping off a flight at LAX Airport in Los Angeles on Wednesday (March 7).
Still sporting a boot on her injured foot, the “X-Men” actress was all smiles as she made her way through the terminal and out to an awaiting ride while clad in a leather jacket and scarf.
Meanwhile, in a sneak peek of the film that brought the duo together in real life, “Dark Tide” follows shark expert Kate (Halle Berry) and her onscreen ex-boyfriend (Olivier Martinez) during a thrill-seeking shark dive outside the cage.
In one scene, Berry lashes out at her real-life beau when he pressures her to get back into the water with the sharks, saying, “He wants to see big ones? Let’s show him big ones, this fool’s paid big money to see big sharks.”
With a sneak peek of “Dark Tide” found below, the film is set to hit theaters on March 30th and VOD by Lionsgate and Wrekin Hill this Thursday, March 8th.

PEGGY Stinnett’s Oct. 4 column, “Residents fear quarry development may flood creek,” leads Tribune readers to believe the city of Oakland has been less than honest about the Leona Quarry development project and its effect on Chimes Creek and the Delmont Avenue residents. Nothing could be further from the truth.
The column alludes to a buried creek at the quarry being activated by a “freak rainstorm” a few weeks ago. The environmental impact report revealed there is no creek buried at the quarry. The city’s extensive review of the drainage at the site identified a number of issues, and these were addressed in plans requiring a new drainage system to detain and control the flow of the water across Interstate 580 and into Chimes Creek.
The sediments collected on Mountain Boulevard were a result of surface runoff. Since the rainstorm, the city has required the contractor to accelerate the installation of erosion control measures to mitigate or prevent runoff from the site into the public right-of-way. These measures included hydro seeding the site by Oct. 15 in preparation for the rainy season.
The city and contractor have no plans to widen Chimes Creek. The existing erosion of the creek and damage to the oak and acacia trees are not attributed to the project, but are the result of years of erosion along this section of the creek.
The city made sure the proposed development was designed so that the existing condition of the creek will not worsen. In fact, the new drainage system is designed to capture more surface runoff and detain it on-site during heavy rains, thus providing an extra measure of safety.
Additionally, the city has required the following measures to address erosion, sediment control, flow velocity, sanitary sewer upgrades and compliance with the Creek Ordinance.
The contractor increased the monitoring frequency of runoff, leaving the site to ensure that pollutants do not enter the storm drainage system.
The contractor left the existing 39-inch pipe that leads to Chimes Creek intact and is constructing a huge detention basin on-site so that the flow velocity into the creek does not change.
The contractor agreed to pay approximately $400,000 toward upgrading the capacity of the sewer system downstream of the development.
The city continues to work closely with all regulatory agencies and the contractor to ensure that all community concerns are properly addressed and dealt with. For more information, call Marcel Uzegbu at 238-6257.

Since manufacturers are discontinued, Panasonic's items were purchased because the mounting hole size was also the same. The wiring is simple with 2 wires, and movement is smooth. Because the price is also cheap, as it is a net purchase (monotaro), it is available soon and it is pleasing to customers with repair completion.
When the parts of the machine were broken, this product hit when searching the part number. There was no stock at the machine maker and it was in a hurry. The price was able to be purchased at the price of the machine maker, but from the machine maker comes the connector on the wiring, but since the product of this one has no connector, processing is necessary.


Aerospace and defense company Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) announced on Friday that it delivered the first of four mine-hunting vehicles to the U.S. Navy as part of a $118 million contract.
The firm's Remote Minehunting Vehicle (RMV) is a critical component of Lockheed's larger Remote Minehunting System (RMS), designed to give Navy commanders a clearer picture of the battle environment.
The Remote Minehunting System (RMS) introduces a critical mine countermeasure capability to our forward-deployed naval forces, said Captain Joe Spitz, of the US Navy. Sailors now have an organic unmanned mine warfare system that will allow them to detect and classify mines from a safe distance.
Lockheed's RMVis a semi-submersible, semi-autonomous, unmanned vehicle that tows a variable-depth sensor to detect, localize, classify and identify bottom and moored sea mines at a safe distance. The RMV transmits real-time mine sonar images to its host ship where the commander can make an informed decision.
In 2005, the Naval Sea Systems Command awarded Lockheed Martin a low-rate initial production contract for three RMVs. In 2006, a contract for four more RMVs was awarded.

HADLEY — When the first bottles roll off the line at V-One Vodka’s very own distillery in Poland this April, it will be the realization of a long-held goal for founder Paul Kozub, who first made the spirit in his Hadley basement 13 years ago.
It’ll also be the end of a year-long process of buying and renovating the 130-year-old distillery and 20-acre farm in the Kamień region of northwestern Poland on the country’s Baltic coast.
With the purchase of the factory and land for growing some of its own spelt, a wheat-like grain Kozub uses, V-One will control the vodka-making and distribution process “from seed to shelf,” Kozub said.
"We'll be growing our own spelt, growing our own ingredients," he said.
The new plant has capacity to make 4 million liters of vodka a year, but V-One will use only some of that capacity in the immediate future.
V-One has been made in Poland by contract distilleries since Kozub launched the brand in 2005.
“If you want to make sparkling wine, you go to the Champagne region of France,” he said. “If you want to make high-end vodka, you go to Poland.”
The distillery comes with expansion plans here. Kozub predicts he’ll double the staff at V-One’s Hadley headquarters from 12 to 24 in the next 18 months.
He expects to increase the workforce in Poland from 12 to about 20 as production ramps up. He also plans new sizes, more flavors and a new bottle design.
Stateside, he hopes to expand V-One’s market reach beyond the three states where it is available now and into 30 or more states in the next few years. He wants to get V-One into markets in Asia and elsewhere around the world.
“My vision was not to be a Hadley vodka, but to be the best vodka in the world,” he said. “It allows us to be where the trends are in the spirit world. People what to know where their product comes from. They don’t want it to be some conglomerate.”
He’s also always seen V-One as an extension of his Polish heritage.
Kozub’s great-grandfather came from Poland and worked in the Uniroyal plant in Chicopee. A grandfather, Stan, followed the earlier generation into Uniroyal and told a young Paul tales of prohibition moonshine. Paul’s father, Edward Kozub, was the entrepreneur, having started Janlynn Corp. in Chicopee. Janlynn made needlepoint kits and other craft sets.


Starr Saxon was a master robot-maker whose ability rivaled that of Doctor Doom. Deciding to use his genius for personal gain, Saxon began offering his robotic services to underworld clients. While carrying out a murder, one of Saxon's robots met and was thwarted by Daredevil. Seeking to make the crimefighter pay for his intervention, Saxon embarked upon an elaborate scheme, which culminated in his assuming the guise of Daredevil's old enemy, Mister Fear. In battle with Daredevil atop his hovercraft, Saxon fell hundreds of feet to the ground.
Unseen by Daredevil or the authorities, Saxon's robots, acting on pre-programmed instructions, retrieved the dying body of their inventor and brought him to his workshop. There they transferred his encephalic patterns into a computer system. When Saxon resumed a semblance of consciousness, he learned that his human body had died and that he now possessed a robotic body.
Though dismayed by his condition, Saxon constructed for himself a more human-looking body and resumed his business of custom-building robots under the name of Machinesmith. His new specialty was the construction of robotic simulacra that looked and acted exactly like their human models. His Baron Strucker robot was lifelike to the point that SHIELD had had it under surveillance for a number of years before they discovered that it was a robot. He also created a Magneto robot that the mutant Mesmero believed was real for several months. Most of his clients remain unrevealed.
Despite his successes, Machinesmith grew to hate his pseudo-life, but found that his programming would not allow him to terminate himself. During a lengthy encounter with Captain America, Machinesmith manipulated the Avenger into destroying his central computer system.
Powers and AbilitiesEdit
Sentient Program: Machinesmith exists as a living, cybernetic-system program, which is equipped to transmit its program along an infrared laser beam from one robotic body to another within .25 seconds. Machinesmith can even place his personality program into multiple bodies at the same time. His physical capabilities vary in accordance with the robot form he is inside.
AbilitiesMechanical Genius: Machinesmith is a genius at creating complex behavioral programs and bionic systems.
Machinesmith's previous robotic body possesses superhuman strength enabling it to lift (press) approximately 1 ton. Presumably Machinesmith could build a body with a greater capacity for strength.
Machinesmith has created a vast arsenal of weaponry, defense systems, and surveillance devices, whose specifications are constantly being upgraded.

It’s that time of year to load the freezer up with Frozen Red Grapes. Our last day of school is this Friday and I am already in a panic as to how to feed three children 53 times per day, all healthy items, with a few cheats. Frozen Red Grapes do solve this dilemma. But when my friend showed me these Mini Frozen Grape Kebabs that were served to her and her family while sunning themselves by the pool in Miami, I thought to myself, “Wow, that is brilliant!” My children love food-on-a-stick and I love dainty, little treats myself. These are easy to make, all you need is grapes and toothpicks. Easy to eat as well since they are so much like icy popsicles or ice lollies.
Mini Frozen Grape Kebabs
Wash grapes and thread three onto each toothpick. Make as many as you like. Freeze on a tray for at least 4 hours or overnight. Store in an airtight container in the freezer.
CrossFit approved. Paleo approved.
