"He's easy .. so easy on my mind"
Music CD Review By Paul Gilbert
© November/00 By Paul Gilbert :
If you've read this ezine for any time, the name Charlotte Mair is one that appears a great
deal. In fact, she has a number of poems in this issue. I don't want to discuss her poetry
which has been done at greater length in the "Interview Issue", rather I want to review another
of her endeavours.
If you consider that just over two years ago, she started to
write poetry, it's amazing the mark she's made for herself
on the Internet. From the Internet to a chapbook, to awards,
she is having an effect on culture from her vantage point of
Richmond BC. Now she has returned to her love of music.
Recently Charlotte has released a 4 song CD of original
composed music, the disc is called "Silverado". To give you
a quick review, this CD features 4 country music torch
songs. Now I know we've all heard about new country, and if
you're expecting something that "Shania" would sing, or in
that style, you will be disappointed. There is no exposed
navel in this music. This is old style country, the "Patsy
Cline" school of hurtin' country.
If this is more to your liking, then it may be worth your while to go to
Charlotte's Web Advert and find out more information.
Television Interview Review with David Ingram
Television, talk show host: David Ingram recently requested ThE CaMbIe RoAd PoEt ,
better known as Charlotte Mair, to make her television debut at Roger’s Cable
Studios, in North Vancouver, BC. , Monday the 16th of October.
A portly gentleman offers a warm handshake and the interview begins with David singing
and coaxing Charlotte into a little song, The Tooth Song, which she had previously
written for Ingram’s young son . David and Charlotte then sang the afore-mentioned song,
in unison, to the tune of Jingle Bells. Definitely an ice-breaker.
After sharing a chorus or two, David then launched the question, "Who is Charlotte Mair?"
Holding guitar in hand, she then states, "Charlotte Mair is a 51 year old lady, singer-songwriter-poet who is trying her best to
figure out how to earn a living in this world."
Then David makes mention of the fact that Charlotte has accomplished much within the past two years, with the construction of
her own webpage, Charlotte’s Web Page, the self-publishing of her chapbook The First Fifty Years, a studio
recording and production of her four song CD,Silverado , then finally her signing of a contract with Kedco Studios,
where 101 of her new poems have been published on CDROM, so named Self Portrait.
David is quite impressed with the evident determination with which Charlotte has shown , by striving to achieve her goals and
holds up the chapbooks, the music CDs and CDROM of poetry to then show the world what he considers to be really great
A request for song was made and Charlotte started with a tune from her new CD called Easy. Applause rings out in the studio,
as the vocalist hits the final chord on a very successful performance.
On the whole, this was quite an interesting and entertaining interview, proving once again the stamina of the lady known as ThE
CaMbIe RoAd PoEt ... Charlotte Gai Mair.

|I enjoyed listening to Silverado. Charlotte's voice is sultry and mellow like Cher's, with a Country & Western feel, plus an unmistakable quality that is Charlotte's own unique style.|


Pune: Over 300 people, mostly students, were detained in a party where alcohol was allegedly being served without a permit in Pune. But the police is being criticised for indulging in moral policing.
A weekend party at Maya restaurant and lounge on the outskirts of Pune city was raided by the police on Sunday because the organisers allegedly did not have permission to serve alcohol beyond 11 pm. Of the 300 detained, most of them were students, IT professionals and foreign nationals. Many among those say this is simply a case of moral policing.
The raid comes after locals allegedly complained about loud music and indecent behaviour at the bar which is owned by ATS officer Rajnish Nirmal's wife Anjali.
Businessman Tehseen Poonawala said, "It's moral policing by the cops, they can't do anything else so target these boys. We will go to the NHRC against the police."
Several young Punekars echo that sentiment and draw parallels with controversial Mumai ACP Vasant Dhoble's crackdown on the night clubs in the maximum city.

There really is no debate on whether or not the world needs more aspiring young musicians. We need bands that not only challenge themselves in forward motion, we need advocates for our influences as well. We need bands like Meeting House. I recently talked with guitarist/vocalist Ethan Cowell about where the band is since their last chat with BolderBeat, what's on the horizon, and of course, their upcoming new music, which will be released May 19th with a show at Denver’s Seventh Circle Music Collective.
If you haven't heard of these guys yet, they’re the loud, bluesy band from Denver CO with a grungy funk rock center. It's hard to put a name to their exact sound, but from the sound of it, these guys intend to keep it that way. With a well received self-titled EP, and countless live shows under their belts already, it appears that there is no stopping this three-piece group. And as you'll find out in my conversation with the frontman below, they have much, much more to give us.
Listening to your self-titled EP, it definitely feels like your sound comes together organically. Would you consider yourselves collectively still in that “finding yourself stage” or are you pretty comfortable with where you're going?
I don't think it's a matter of sound really. We don't want to sound like anything. We want it to sound like us. So I don't know, we may not ever find it.
You've been compared to The White Stripes and Arctic Monkeys. How does that kind of recognition make you feel?
Honestly I don't even believe it, like it seems so awesome. It's such an honor to [be] put out there and be compared to these people. Like I said, I just have a hard time believing it.
One with nice people. We just like to play. That's the reward for us: having the privilege to play anywhere.
You've been teasing with talk of new music on May 19th. So as fans, what should we expect from the new release?
That's a tough question to answer. We have so much music. We just like to make stuff and record. Hopefully just honesty. We don't want to come across as overly cliche. We just don't want to sound like we're trying to be anything, we just want you to hear... us.”
Will the new music be a follow-up EP?
We’re actually still deciding, arguing over how much we want to release. Whether it be one or two songs, or a full album.
Are there any bands that you've encountered or played with that are really fueling you at the moment?
The Beeves are our number one best friends in the entire world for sure, both on and off stage. But The Ephinji’s are a great band as well- we play with them a lot. We feel really blessed to be part of the environment that is the Colorado music scene.”
These guys have an energy that will make your bones jump- you know the kind I'm talking about. So make sure you see ‘em while they're still in the underground. Catch them at Meeting House with The Beeves Friday, May 19th at Seventh Circle Collective before they jet out on tour. Keep up with Meeting House’s latest news on Facebook.

DESIGNING A BUSINESS DEGREE WITH A PBL ETHOS
University of Brighton (UNITED KINGDOM)
About this paper:
Appears in: ICERI2015 Proceedings
Publication year: 2015
Conference name: 8th International Conference of Education, Research and Innovation
Dates: 18-20 November, 2015
Location: Seville, Spain
Abstract:This paper takes an evaluative and critical stance to review an innovative course design and to identify what worked and what was not so successful. When we embarked on the process of responding to senior management demands for a distinctive business degree for a small inter-disciplinary campus in the UK, we took the familiar business curriculum and searched for a distinctive approach to learning. This paper sets out the gestation and delivery of that distinctive degree which was designed as a whole programme rather than as a series of separate modules, and which had problem-based learning principles (Barrows and Tamblin 1980, Savery and Duffy 1995) at its heart. The paper attempts to determine whether anything distinctive did result, and what, if anything, can be gleaned from the experience by the institution in relation to future course design. The designers of this course faced considerable opposition through the validation phase of this degree, since it lay outside the standard paradigm of what constituted, in the traditional mind, a normal undergraduate course. Problem or task-based learning was the ethos of the whole design, meaning that students were thrown into the deep end of task and client response not as a result of foundation learning but before it had happened. Combinations of units were designed to build the appetite for learning before serving appropriate models and concepts, which meant high levels of student attendance and engagement and different work patterns for staff. Institutional challenges included small credit units, lack of transferability to other courses, the need for generalist teachers and examiners as well as specialists and considerable staff team development. The location of the campus meant a new agenda of local business engagement which was largely driven by teaching staff in forging new business community relationships. Technology for learning was vital to the process and the virtual learning environment, e-portfolio software for groupwork, reflective work and formative and summative assessment, online testing, online feedback, video lectures, class open polling, weekly podcasts with student co-editors, digital reading lists, student video minutes of group meetings and online business games were some of the ways in which learning technology supported the course design. The course aimed to treat students as apprentice professionals rather than periodical attenders; people who were responsible for their and their peers’ development and who would experience a broad range of practical business experiences, developing not just a set of academic skills of analysis, synthesis and evaluation but also creative communication and organizational skills which would support them in their careers. The paper shows how many of these aims were indeed met, yet the course itself failed. There are some practical reasons for the failure to recruit, specifically to do with branding and location, but there are also some ideas developed in the learning and teaching experience of this course which could transfer successfully to other business teaching. The paper aims to bring out these lessons in order to ensure that the closure of one course does not close down innovative approaches to business course design and in particular problem-based learning approaches to learning and assessment.
Keywords: Critical review, Problem Based Learning, curriculum design.

One of the few shoreline temples in Chennai that survived the tsunami
I've got a ticket!! I have managed to get the only seat left flying direct to Chennai from Heathrow. The flight leaves on Sunday 21st at 12.55 and arrives at Chennai at 3.25 am. All the other flights were twice as expensive and had stops in Mombai or Dubai so the total travelling time was at least 24 hours. Once I am in Chennai I am hoping to get to Port Blair which is the capital of the Andamans. Chennai also looks really interesting so I can go exploring while I am waiting to get a flight. I am coming back on the 3rd July. I am hoping I will be able to do my blog from there as there is Internet access.
We are just off for a meal to celebrate our wedding anniversary (which Doug forgot all about!)

Locals yet to feel immediate tug for Capitol heritage despite UNESCO tag
The heritage status to the Capitol Complex has not aroused an immediate wave of interest among locals with only five people visiting the complex on Monday — the same as on any average day.punjab Updated: Jul 19, 2016 13:37 IST
The heritage status to the Capitol Complex has not aroused an immediate wave of interest among locals with only five people visiting the complex on Monday — the same as on any average day.
A guided tour of students from Government School Senior Secondary School, Sector 15, were among 80 people — in three groups — that did visit the Complex though.
The tours were conducted at 10am, 12 noon and 3 pm. Seven foreigners were part of the group.
The majority of the city residents HT spoke to said they were happy that the Capitol Complex had been given the Heritage status.
However, most were yet to visit the complex — since it was thrown open to the public in April last year.
Sources in the tourism department said the majority of the visitors at the complex were architecture students.
In 2015, 16,000 people visited the complex of which around 11,000 were domestic tourists.
This year, 4,300 people visited the complex, of which 3,000 were domestic. UT home secretary Anurag Agarwal said, “We have decided to light up the buildings for the next 15 days. We will also organise an event involving residents to celebrate the achievement.”

‘The greatest tech show on Earth’ opened its doors last week to welcome technology enthusiasts and experts to Las Vegas, offering them a glimpse into the connected future and a chance to be the first to lay eyes on the very latest gadgets, devices and solutions.
Read on for the Arkessa round-up of some of the most innovative and exciting tech at CES 2019:
Driverless shuttles from Bosch
After a period of low coverage in reaction to some considerable safety concerns from the autonomous vehicle sector, CES 2019 saw the return of some real buzz around the self-driving cars and autonomous transport solutions of the future.
Bosch unveiled an electric driverless shuttle that will ferry passengers around city environments, providing a clear view of the surroundings thanks to its mostly transparent shell, and most importantly, onboard connected infotainment. Live travel, news and weather updates won’t be the only option during your journey, however. You will be able to choose which movie to watch, which music to listen to, even what lighting options you’d like. Passengers will be able to summon a shuttle via a smartphone app, and they will have the option to effectively lift share with other passengers, or travel alone.
Smart Health from Pillo
One of the most popular themes at CES 2019 was Smart Health. With a huge and exciting variety of tech solutions to try out, visitors could really start to imagine a healthier future for humankind.
Pillo is a voice-activated, AI-powered health companion that stores and manages a complete wellness programme – dispensing medication and issuing reminders to your own personalised schedule. Companions like Pillo can help people to manage chronic health conditions more easily, offering independence and peace of mind to patients and their families.
Of course visitors to CES 2019 were expecting to learn more about 5G, and the tech world’s biggest players didn’t disappoint. Industry giants Verizon demonstrated how augmented reality connected with 5G could change the gaming experience considerably.
The announcement from Samsung at the beginning of last week that they would be releasing a 5G cell phone this year was accompanied by the unveiling of a glass-encased prototype at CES 2019.
The event was also the platform for a 5G announcement from Intel, who detailed Project Athena – a 5G and AI-powered laptop innovation project in partnership with Dell and Microsoft amongst others.
CES 2019 saw another big year for wearables in Las Vegas, with the buzz around Smart Health fuelling the enthusiasm for wearable devices to manage our well-being and improve our chances at longer and healthier lives.
Smart belts like Welt, as an alternative to smart wrist watches, offer the ability to monitor health more accurately and discreetly. However, watches are still the firm favourite in terms of health monitors, and Garmin launched its smartwatch to rival the Apple Watch, with built-in 4G connectivity and safety features such as emergency location alerts to friends and family.
A lot of the coverage of CES 2019 focused on the battle between Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa, with both offering further features and integration with Smart Home devices such as Smart Buttons (singular buttons that can be programmed to carry out different tasks depending on how many times you press – perfect for visitors who still want to turn on the bathroom light). Another hot topic was Smart Home security, with the Smart Doorbell – a video-connected doorbell that sends you notifications and live images – and Smart Locks (fingerprint scanning is not just for your phone).
For more on Smart Spaces and the technologies on show at CES 2019 that will make a difference to our everyday lives, check out the brand new blog series by Arkessa – Smart Spaces of the future.

Understanding Soil: The Foundation of Gardening and Farming
Understanding soil is the lifeblood of any garden or farm. It’s the medium in which plants grow, providing them with essential nutrients, water, and air. But not all soils are created equal. Understanding the basics of soil and the concept of living soil can significantly improve your gardening or farming experience. In this article, we’ll delve into these topics and explore how Oregon Super Soil fits into the picture.
The Basics and Understanding Soil
Soil is a complex mixture of minerals, dead and living organisms (organic materials), air, and water. These four ingredients react with one another in amazing ways, making soil one of our planet’s most dynamic and important natural resources. Soil is used by people in numerous ways. Because of this, it has many definitions.
The quality of soil can significantly impact the health and productivity of your plants. For instance, soil that is rich in organic matter and well-aerated promotes healthy root growth and nutrient uptake. One of the products that can help you achieve this is the Oregon Super Soil Starter Bag. This product is designed to provide your plants with the essential nutrients they need to thrive. The more one devotes to understanding soil and the role it plays in your plants’ overall health, the better equipped one will be when gardening.
Living Soil: A Game Changer
Living soil is more than just a buzzword in the gardening and farming world; it’s a revolutionary concept that takes soil quality to the next level. But what exactly is living soil, and why is it so important? Understanding soil in this way can revolutionize the way you garden.
Living soil is about creating a soil environment that is teeming with beneficial microorganisms. These microorganisms, which include bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and nematodes, play a crucial role in the soil ecosystem. They break down organic matter into nutrients that plants can absorb, a process known as mineralization. This not only provides plants with the essential nutrients they need to grow but also helps improve soil structure, making it more conducive for root growth.
But the benefits of living soil extend beyond nutrient availability and soil structure. Living soil also contributes to soil health by enhancing its water-holding capacity, reducing erosion, and suppressing plant diseases. Moreover, it promotes biodiversity, which is essential for a resilient and sustainable ecosystem.
According to a study published in Scientific Reports, living soil rich in organic matter and microbial diversity can enhance plant growth and productivity, improve soil physical properties, and increase carbon sequestration. This underscores the importance of living soil in sustainable agriculture and its potential to mitigate climate change.
At Oregon Super Soil, we understand the value of living soil, and we’re committed to promoting its use in gardening and farming. Our products, such as the Oregon Super Soil Starter Bag, are designed to enrich your soil with organic matter and beneficial microorganisms, helping you create a living soil environment in your garden or farm.

The Importance of Living Organisms in Understanding Soil
The soil beneath our feet is teeming with life. From the smallest bacteria to the visible earthworms, the soil is a bustling metropolis of organisms, each playing a crucial role in maintaining the health and fertility of the soil. Understanding soil, and the role of these living organisms in soil is essential for successful gardening and farming.
The Role of Soil Organisms
Soil organisms, which range in size from microscopic cells that digest decaying organic material to small mammals that live primarily on other soil organisms, play an important role in maintaining fertility, structure, drainage, and aeration of soil. They are the unsung heroes of our gardens and farms, working tirelessly to create a healthy environment for plant growth.
Decomposition of Organic Matter
One of the key roles of soil organisms is the decomposition of organic matter. When plants and animals die, they leave behind organic material. This material is broken down by soil organisms, a process that releases nutrients back into the soil. These nutrients are then available for uptake by plants, completing the nutrient cycle.
Formation of Soil Structure
Another important role of soil organisms is the formation of soil structure. Certain soil organisms, like earthworms and ants, create channels in the soil as they move through it. These channels improve soil aeration and water drainage, making the soil more conducive for root growth.
Formation of Humus
Moreover, understanding how soil organisms contribute to the formation of humus, a stable form of organic matter that improves soil water holding capacity and nutrient availability, is vital to understanding soil as a whole. Humus also helps buffer soil pH, making the soil environment more favorable for plant growth.
Microorganisms in the soil, such as bacteria and fungi, also play a crucial role in nutrient cycling. They convert nutrients from one form to another, making them available for plant uptake. For instance, nitrogen-fixing bacteria convert atmospheric nitrogen into a form that plants can use.
Oregon Super Soil’s Root Enhancer
At Oregon Super Soil, we understand the importance of living organisms in soil. That’s why our Root Enhancer is designed to promote healthy root growth, which is essential for overall plant health. The Root Enhancer is available in different sizes, including 7g, 14g, and 28g packs.
By promoting healthy root growth, the Root Enhancer helps plants establish a strong connection with the soil and its resident organisms. This connection, known as the rhizosphere, is a hotbed of microbial activity, where nutrients are exchanged between plants and soil organisms.
In conclusion, living organisms are the heart and soul of the soil. They are the engine that drives soil fertility and plant health. By understanding soil, and their role and promoting their activity, we can create a vibrant, living soil that supports healthy, productive plants. Ready to start your organic gardening journey?

The Importance of Sustainable Gardening
Sustainable gardening is not just about producing healthy, organic produce. It’s also about understanding soil and caring for the environment and preserving it for future generations. By choosing organic soil products like Oregon Super Soil, you’re contributing to this cause.
Organic matter improves soil physical properties such as air and water availability, allowing for healthy root growth. Organic matter is composed of living plant roots and organisms, decomposing plant and animal residue in varying stages of decay, and enzymes secreted by soil organisms that act like glue to bind soil particles. This is the essence of living soil, an understanding of soil that we at Oregon Super Soil are passionate about.
Soils rich in organic matter hold more air and water and produce higher yields than soils low in organic matter. They also supply a steady release of nutrients to plants, inhibit erosion, and host a robust population of beneficial microorganisms. This is why our products, such as the Root Enhancer and the Oregon Super Soil, are designed to enrich your soil with organic matter and beneficial microorganisms.
Organic farming also lowers the risk of environmental pollution and helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions by severely restricting the use of manufactured chemical fertilizers and pesticides, which come from burning fossil fuels. This is another reason why we advocate for organic gardening and farming practices.

Linking participants in school-based sport programs to community clubs
journal contributionposted on 2009-03-01, 00:00 authored by R M Eime, Warren PayneWarren Payne
A decline in youth (12-25 years) participation in sport and physical activity has been reported. School programs that are delivered within schools by external agencies are a key strategy to promote participation in sport and physical activity. It is important that there is a transfer for participants from school-based sport to community opportunities. This study explored the structural links between participation programs conducted in schools and participation in community-based sporting clubs. The study in Victoria, Australia, involved a survey of 49 State Sports Governing Organisations (SSGOs), focus group discussions with 15 representatives from eight of these bodies, in-depth analysis of one school-based sports program that involved the coordinator from the SSGO, three teachers, four parents and one teacher/parent from six participating schools. A majority of SSGOs (59.1%) reported delivering programs within school settings; however they acknowledged that this structure does not represent an efficient or effective way to develop community-level club sports participation and club membership. Facilitators and barriers for transferring participation in school-based sport programs to sustained participation and membership in community club sport are discussed. It is recommended that sports organisations tailor their school-based programs using recognised health promotion planning principles (including community engagement) rather than continuing their current 'one-size-fits-all' approach. This will assist SSGOs and clubs to develop sustainable participation programs and increase club membership. It is recognised that such a change will have significant resource implications due to increased demands on time and human resources. Crown Copyright © 2007.

‘Edited by Quincey Lane. Vol: I 1888 Berkhamsted. Printed and Published by the Post Newspaper Co. Ltd.’ This title page heralded the arrival of a new magazine in September 1888, aimed at the following readership: ‘In presenting this Magazine to the people of Hertfordshire the Proprietors are assured that they meet a long-felt want… No Pains will be spared to make the contents interesting and instructional in the highest degree,’ The fact that it is a ‘Constitutional Magazine’ should win it a place in every home in Hertfordshire, in which reigns that loyal and conservative spirit, for which the county is so justly celebrated.’ The contents were to be varied to meet all tastes and to include ‘serial tales’ by local authors, scientific and artistic contributions. The ladies were to be especially catered for. ‘All Letters relating to Political, Historical, Archaeological, Astronomical, Geological, Musical and Artistic information … should be addressed to the Editor, Hertfordshire Constitutional Magazine, High Street, Great Berkhamsted, Herts.’ The magazine was available from G. Loosley, Castle Street and A. Slater, High Street, price 1/6. The Editor was one Quincey Lane.
Who was this Quincey Lane, then? There was a Frederick Quincey Lane, who, according to the 1881 census, lived at ‘The George’ in the High Street, but he was a nurseryman and a brewer and an unlikely candidate to produce such a magazine. Examination of the 1891 census shows Frederick living with an ever-growing family and his wife, Eliza, listed not as ‘brewer’s wife’ but as ‘journalist.’ In the same column was written faintly, for explanation, ‘author’.
Various press notices which appeared after the first volume give us further clarification. The Hertfordshire Standard wrote, ‘It must be confessed as surprising that no such effort before has been made or sustained in this Shire, and now a lady at Berkhamsted leads the way… It is edited by Mrs Quincey Lane, who a few months since was the first lady journalist enrolled on the books of the London District of the National Association of Journalists.’
Eliza Quincey Lane was not born in Berkhamsted, but in Marylebone, in 1847. Her father, William Parkins, a stationer, came from Hertfordshire and from the 1851 census we learn that Eliza, aged 6 and her elder sister, Mary, attended Merry Hall School in the High Street in Berkhamsted. In addition to this the two girls were almost certainly related to John Parkins, sexton of the church, who also lived in the High Street. From the 1861 census we learn that Eliza’s father was a widower and Eliza, now 15, is listed still as a scholar, so she was quite an educated young woman.
Frederick Quincey Lane and Eliza Parkins were married on 15th October 1868 at All Saints, St. John’s Wood. The couple lived in the High Street, Berkhamsted, not at The George initially. By the time of the 1871 census they had a one-year-old son, Frederick John Lane. Ten years later they were living at The George and they had five children.
Perhaps because of the success of the Constitutional Magazine, although Quincey Lane remained Editor, Volume III, published in 1889, was no longer printed in Berkhamsted nor published by the Post Newspaper Co. Ltd but printed in London and published by the Counties Constitutional Magazines’ Syndicate. From that time on the magazine seems to have lost some of its individuality and relevance to Hertfordshire and especially Berkhamsted. No issues of the magazine remain extant after 1889, either in the Society’s nor Hertfordshire’s archives. Eliza died at the comparatively young age of fifty-five in 1901. Perhaps the strain of motherhood combining with a career in journalism took its toll.

You don't need to resort to other software. Simply set up a separate
instance of memcache and configure it never to evict data using a
simple command line option. Very simple to do, and very reliable. And
it does not require any additional software.

The Farmers’ Cooperative Society of the Nigerian Association of Small and Medium Enterprises is spoiling for war with the Nigerian Agricultural Insurance Corporation for failing to compensate its members over 7.5 hectares of rice farm land worth about N3m reportedly destroyed by cows.
The President of the society, Mr. Olu Adams, disclosed this in an interview with our correspondent.
He recounted that members of the farmers’ group known as NASME Abundant Farmers’ Cooperative Society planted 20 hectares of rice and during harvesting, the Lagos State Government’s multiple harvesters broke down and the harvest was interrupted.
He said during the period that the harvest was interrupted, cows entered the farms and ate up the remaining crops.
He said, “We still have an issue with the NAIC because we have some claims that they have refused to pay. We are ready to fight it out with them.
“The reason is that about 7.5 hectares of rice that were not harvested because the combined harvesters owned by the Lagos State Government broke down during harvest. Since harvest is time bound, within a short period, cows entered the farms and damaged all the rice.
“We called on the insurance company and they said they only covered flood and natural disaster.”
According to Adams, the rice that was destroyed was worth over N3m, adding, “If we had harvested the crop, it would have been worth N3m at three tonnes per hectare,” he said.
Adams said, “That is one of the things militating against our growth. This time, however, we are ready to do a strong Memorandum of Understanding with the insurance company and FADAMA because we did not have that before.”
When contacted, the Head, Corporate Affairs, NAIC, Magdalene Omosmiua, confirmed that the firm did not provide cover for crops damaged by animals but said that it was working on it.
“NAIC does not provide cover for crops destroyed by animals but we are working on that now. I cannot specifically say when it will start operating; it is still work in progress,” she said.
Firm to train artisans, builders on pipe installation
A distributor of pipes and related products, AdeemAdex Nigeria limited, has concluded plans to organize training programmes for builders, plumbers and other artisans on contemporary pipe laying and management technology.
According to a statement from the firm, the programme would be done in conjunction with AdeemAdex’s foreign partners, Dizayn Group.
The statement quoted the Managing Director of AdeemAdex, AdediranAdekoya, as saying that no matter how good a product was, wrongful installation could create problems that can affect the utility, longevity, and durability of such product.
He added that his company would offer regular training for artisans in this area as a corporate social responsibility.
The statement quoted the Lagos State Chairman, Nigerian Institute of Builders, Adenike Said, as saying that challenges experienced today from pipes were mostly from installation errors. She commended the plan to train artisans and urged Adekoya to commence the programme speedily.

The Next Bear Market Will Come Without Warning
March 9th marked the nine-year anniversary of this bull market, which now stands as the second longest bull market in history (the 1990 – 2000 bull market is the longest) according to Strategas Research. Using history as a guide, we know that bull markets do not last forever. Stocks are likely destined to decline materially when a bear market takes hold. The question is, when?
No one can say for sure. Again though, if we’re using history as a guide, chances are that the next bear market will take hold with very few warning signs, and could very well occur when investors least expect it. Zacks Investment Management remains optimistic for 2018 – our forecast for rising stock prices this year has not changed. But, given this bull market is long in the tooth, interest rates are on the rise, and tariffs are a bubbling theme in the global economy, investors should proceed with heightened awareness.
Lessons from History
The statements I make below about bear markets are general in nature. No two bear markets are the same. In fact, they are often times very different, ranging in duration from just a few months (1987 crash) to several years (1937-1942 Depression into WWII), and in magnitude from around -20% (1956, 1966, 1990) to -86% (1929-1932). The average bear market for the S&P 500 was about -40% over less than two years., but generally speaking bears since the Depression have fallen somewhere between -25% and -35% over 12 – 18 months1.
To give you some broad context as to what can trigger a bear market, let’s take a look at a few recent examples from history.
November 1980 – August 1982
During this period, the U.S. economy was still feeling strain from the oil price shock in 1979, and inflation was running very high. The economy was struggling, but what arguably triggered the bear market, in my view, was the
Federal Reserve (under Paul Volcker) raising interest rates too aggressively in the fight against inflation, ultimately stifling economic growth even further. The market declined -27%2.
July 1990 – October 1990
This relatively shallow bear market was, in my view, triggered by an exogenous geopolitical event – the Gulf War – during a time of economic fragility. Oil prices soared, and to boot there were multiple savings and loan bank failures that exacerbated a loss of investor confidence. Panicking in this situation could have been tragic, however – the bear market only lasted about four months and the ensuing bull market still remains the longest in history3.
March 2000 – October 2002
Most readers likely remember this bear market, which was arguably triggered by wildly high valuations and euphoric investor sentiment (not necessarily in that order). More so than the previous two discussed, this bear market caught investors somewhat by surprise simply because the euphoria blinded many to the bubbling risks of overvaluation. The bull market had been going on for so long, with so much money made by many, that it was difficult to imagine the end. I don’t believe we are at that point with the current bull market, but I’d argue that we’re headed in that direction.
Tax cuts and ‘global synchronized growth’ may be the catalysts for euphoric sentiment down the road. Who knows. But if positive sentiment continues to build and stocks continue to climb convincingly, I’d caution investors to keep one eye on these four factors:
- Tariffs potentially leading to trade war
- Rising interest rates leading to an inverted yield curve
- Corporate leverage, particularly smaller, riskier companies being able to borrow at low premiums to the risk-free rate
- Exogenous geopolitical factors, particularly in the Middle East, with North Korea, and Russia
Bottom Line for Investors
While we would love to possess a crystal ball that could tell us when a bear would start and end, we know that will never be the case. Bear markets generally don’t come with clear warning signs or signals. But, a key tenet of the Zacks Investment Management philosophy is to prioritize participating in bull markets over attempting to sidestep bear markets. Historically, the gains offered by bull markets far outweigh the losses incurred by bears, and in our view the greatest risk to the investor isn’t feeling a bit of a sting in participating in a bear market – it’s being out of the market when the next bull takes over.
That being said, there are steps an investor can take when building a portfolio to make sure that the level of risk and exposure to equities corresponds with your investment objectives. Diversification is a key part of that, but there’s more that you can do to build a portfolio suited to your long-term goals.

The Heli-Express service, which is operated by Air Melbourne, travels out of the Mercedes-Benz Airport Express dealership, allowing for transfers between Melbourne airport and CBD (South Wharf) in around four minutes.
Customers simply leave their car at Air Melbourne headquarters in South Wharf and fly to the airport on twin-engined Agusta helicopters, which are met by Mercedes-Benz transfer vehicles providing direct transfers to terminals.
Alternatively, Mercedes-Benz customers flying into Melbourne can use the service to get in and out of the CBD for a nine-to-five day in Melbourne without the traffic congestion on each end.
The helipad is the only one situated at Melbourne Airport with direct clearance, while the CBD helipad is on the Yarra River at South Wharf. The service is offered from sunrise to sunset with a one-way Heli-Express flight costing $274.00 per person, meaning a round-trip will be $548.
With Melbourne traffic to and from the airport taking up to an hour in each direction, the flight cost may prove an efficient way for time-poor customers to utilise their day.
Soon, the service will expand to offer two services from Moorabbin Airport to Melbourne Airport in the morning, matched by two returning flights from Melbourne Airport to Moorabbin Airport at sunset. Plans are in order for flights Lilydale Airport as well.
So, if you want to avoid the Melbourne traffic (or simply want a ride on one of the fastest civilian helicopters you can get your hands on), click here.

Alabama Hills is one of the new neighborhoods in Bellingham and is the perfect picture of suburbia. The area is almost all single-family homes. Connected in the south to one of the most beautiful and largest recreation areas in the area, this neighborhood is a dog walker's dream come true! You won’t find any amenities that you or your pup might be looking for, so you will have to hop into your car to find your best friend's essentials. Fortunately, this neighborhood is not very far from the downtown areas of Bellingham where you can find these stores and services.
Bellingham weather is, in general, quite mild. It is far enough north that being on the water means it rarely gets really hot and, as part of Puget Sound, snow and cold weather are rare events. Your biggest issues for walking will be rain storms from the Pacific that bring in heavy rain and wind.
Much of the terrain, unsurprisingly, is hilly since the neighborhood was built on a hill. Many of the elevation changes are mild though, so all is not lost if you are a newcomer to dog walking. You can usually find flat terrain that will be easy on you and your dog as you learn to exercise your walking legs! On the other hand, if you are a veteran walker, you can look forward to lots of hills in the neighborhood and in the adjacent park to the south.
The suburban nature of Alabama Hill does mean that many of the roads have no sidewalks and not much in the way of shoulders. You should be very cautious about walking the roads, especially when visibility is not great. Fortunately, there is also a trail that runs through the neighborhood that leads into Whatcom Falls Park, allowing you to get off the road and walk someplace safe.
Alabama Hill has one small park in the interior of the neighborhood. Highland Heights Park is a small park, but it has a lot of grass and trees to wander around in. The railroad trail also runs through the neighborhood and provides a safe place to walk as well as a greenway that gets your pup off of the concrete. This trail goes through a larger greenway where it intersects the trail that goes through Whatcom Falls Park. You can also drive to the park if it is too far to walk as it is adjacent to Alabama Hill on the south boundary. The park is 241 acres and has miles of trails to explore. Some of the most beautiful scenery in Washington is here and, to make things even better, the north area of the park above the creek has an off-leash area where your pup can run to their heart’s content.

Oradell Animal Hospital is a unique facility in that it not only has a general practice, but also specialty practices under the same roof. Just as in human medicine, veterinary medicine includes many different types of specialties. Specialists bring a specific understanding to the areas of internal medicine, cardiology, oncology, surgery, neurology, radiology, dermatology,ophthalmology, and nutrition. They possess a greater knowledge of the unusual, the uncommon, or rare in both large and small animals. To see a complete list of recognized specialist organizations, go to the web page
For major, complicated problems, pet owners are often referred to a board-certified veterinary specialist. Veterinary specialists complete undergraduate training, four years of veterinary school, an internship and three to four years of residency training in their field. In addition to this extensive training, a board-certified veterinary specialist must pass rigorous examinations and fulfill the specific requirements for certification set by each specialty college.
Our internal medicine department at the Oradell Animal Hospital consists of four veterinarians trained in the specialty of internal medicine who delve into the complex medical management of disorders in dogs and cats seven days a week along with a specialized technical support staff. Some of the main areas of focus include immune-mediated, hematologic, kidney/urinary, hormonal/endocrine, respiratory, liver and gastrointestinal diseases. Some of the common presenting complaints of pet owners include poorly managed diabetes mellitus, anemia, chronic coughing, inappropriate urination, and unexplained weight loss.
The internist will perform a complete and thorough physical examination of your pet, and based on these initial findings, additional tests will be discussed. Diagnostics available include: radiology, ultrasonography, aspiration/biopsy, bronchoscopy, endoscopy, rhinoscopy, colonoscopy, cystoscopy, and nutritional support such as feeding tube placement. Any diagnostic and therapeutic decisions will be discussed at the time of your appointment with the individual specialist , who will be in consultation with your family veterinarian. The specialist, technical staff, and your family veterinarian will all work together to ensure the very best care for your pet.

We decided to stay in to watch the Super Bowl this year, so of course we had to have some yummy food! My parents came over to watch it with us, and they never miss a party where there's good food. I wanted to do a Cajun theme because we were rooting for the Saints...and we just really like cajun food. I like to think that my red beans and rice sent them good vibes to help them win. Former Mizzou QB Chase Daniel is now a player for the Saints, so that was one more reason for rooting for them! And we always have chili-cheese dip at Mizzou Tailgates, so it was also appropriate for this game.

JOHOR BARU: Former Johor Mentri Besar Tan Sri Othman Saat, 84, died at Sultan Ismail Hospital here at 7am Saturday, weeks after surgery on a gangrenous leg.
“After a surgery on his leg on Oct 1, he was stable but his health deteriorated later. We were prepared for the worst when doctors told us he was very weak two days ago,” said his daughter Norulhuda, 29.
He was admitted into hospital for a lung infection and a gangrenous leg last month.
Her mother Kamariah Bujang and eldest brother Zolkefli were among family members at Othman’s bedside when he breathed his last.
Othman, who was born in Muar, was actively involved in politics since 1946.
He became the third Johor Mentri Besar in 1967 and stepped down in 1982. In three of his five elections, he was returned unopposed.
He had contributed extensively to the development of Johor, especially the rural areas and Felda settlements.
He also set up the Felda scheme to encourage youth involvement in agriculture.
Othman is survived by his second wife Kamariah, nine children - aged between 28 and 61 - 27 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren.
His first wife Rokiah Alwee passed away in 1990 at the age of 62 and his marriage with third wife Aminah Hussein ended in a divorce.
Johor Mentri Besar Datuk Abdul Ghani Othman was among the senior state government officials and Umno veterans who paid their last respects to Othman.
Abdul Ghani said Othman had contributed greatly to the state’s developments.
“He was also an excellent leader in the party who brought Johor Umno to among the strongest in the country,” he said.
Goh Lai Heng, who was the political secretary to Othman, said the mentri besar was very efficiency and dedicated to his job.
“He would go to the ground and meet the people whenever he was free.
“He was so hard working that we used to call our day off only after midnight,” said Goh, who was also former Tanjung Puteri state assemblyman.
Johor State Legislative Speaker Datuk Ali Hassan said Othman was a charismatic and very discipline person.
He was always punctual at functions, meetings as well as the state assembly.
“Everyone liked him. The government servants, the villagers, the settlers,” said Ali, his friend of over 50 years.Othman’s remains were taken back to his residence before being buried at the Mahmoodiah Muslim Cemetery here after zohor prayers.

Allison Bencar. First Call.
Self-released, 2014. Allison Bencar: http://allisonbencar.com/
You’d think a librarian would remember that thing about books and covers. I hesitated when I looked at the pictures on the CD from this fresh faced Cleveland-raised, Nashville-based singer. Never having heard her, I thought, “modern hippie, singer-songwriter. Not my thing. Hand her off to another reviewer.” But I decided to give it a listen. Boy was I wrong. I’ve kept the CD. It’s quite remarkable. Bencar is anything but what I conceived her to be. Her frame of reference is different from almost anyone else her age. This is a musician who grew up listening to Roy Orbison and Patsy Cline, but sounds like this decade at the same time without falling into contemporary pop cliches. Her voice is a rich and strong alto, her songwriting is seriously sophisticated, and the variety of styles represented here suggests a breadth of talent that demands attention. Country, rock, ballads, pop, and stuff in-between make for a rather heady stew, and her backing band (including Clevelander Rob Muzick, with whom she co-wrote a couple of songs, and co-produced the album) is excellent.
While her influences are listed in her bio on the website, it was pretty easy to guess some of them while listening to the album. The first obvious one is Roy Orbison, in the track “Where Do the Lonely Go,” which seems like more of a tribute than an imitation. I think he would have been happy to sing along with this. “Before I Die” is haunted by Christine McVie of Fleetwood Mac in her more bluesy vein, complete with keyboards, and Linda Ronstadt’s sound shows up in “Light It Up,” a song eerily similar to “You’re No Good” (which Bencar covers in a YouTube video). This is not to say she’s derivative. Lots of people are influenced by others (or maybe they wouldn’t have become musicians), and you can hear it in their songs. But nobody yells at the Rolling Stones for having tried to sound like Sonny Boy Williamson.
Other songs by Bencar are quite different, but clearly relate to sounds from other times and places, and that’s a good thing. This is part of her charm, because she sounds like nobody else around now. Her tunes are hook-filled, too country for rock, and too rock for country, which could damn her to the purgatory of Americana. “The Party” is a good example, part country, part cabaret. “Broken Porch” is another, a bit of a country weeper, but with chord changes that sound like indie pop. She starts to really rev up with “Before I Die,” and continues to rock out with “Won’t Be Coming Home,” country rock with a hard kick. The last two songs, “Anywhere with You” and “Who I Am,” have a gentle feel and soft flow that might make the hearts of older gentlemen melt. The band she has assembled is beyond reproach, adding just the right touches when needed, and playing well in any style.
Bencar shouldn’t be surprised to find a wide demographic for her music. I hope she gets some airplay on the radio for her songs. She deserves a huge audience. Her music is familiar but fresh, her voice endlessly listenable, and everything about this album is top notch.
Personnel: Allison Bencar (vocals), Rob Muzick (guitar, pedal steel), John Senchuk (bass), Corey Hughes (drums), Eric Fritsch (accordion, toy piano). All songs written or co-written by Allison Bencar.
Tracks: First Call, Going Out, Where Do the Lonely Go, Sorry, The Party, Broken Porch, Before I Die, Won’t Be Coming Home, Light it Up, Anywhere with You, Who I Am.

While most seniors are taking notes in a traditional classroom setting, others volunteered to not only do the same, but also add senior seminar to their schedule. Senior seminar is a class that students take during their last year, when they want to replace a class in their schedule or when it’s too short.
Ms. Sakaina Simon, a guidance counselor said, “I prefer students to take an extra class, however, budget restraints make it difficult. The upside in senior seminar is that it’s an opportunity to give back to the Hornet community.”
For instance, guidance counselors and teachers get help with filing and distributing paper work. “The help that students provide can go towards Archon, as it’s for students who exhibit excellence in community service,” said Ms. Simon.
Stephanie Tse ‘17, who is taking senior seminar this year, decided to provide her assistance to the school magazine Patterns, which is run by Ms. Melissa Pentangelo.
“I’m really excited because I’m finally going to get the chance to hone in on my creativity, whether it’s in writing poems or short stories,” said Tse.
“Also, senior seminar really taught me not to procrastinate on my work, because of deadlines. But I prefer it over a class because I get to do something that I enjoy,” continued Tse.
Another participant in senior seminar is Jalwa Khan ‘17, who decided to help Ms. Phyllis Delarosso in the school store.
Khan said, “The best thing about doing senior seminar is that it gives me a sense of purpose.
I feel like I am giving back to the school and that makes me very happy.”

Re: Bound For Glory Discussion Thread
I don't think so. Last year had a really good line-up. The only match I didn't care for was Morgan vs. Joe vs. Crimson.
Aries vs Kendrick, RVD vs Jerry Lynn, Anderson vs Bully Ray, and Sting vs Hogan were really good but Kurt Angle vs Bobby Roode would of been awesome if the match got more time, AJ vs Daniels I quit match was disappointing and the KO title match would of been decent if the match wasn't overbooked so I hope the execution of the matches this year will be good

This is a story about right now.
It’s about how, even as a better future seems finally within Andi Swenson’s grasp, she cannot see it,
because her past has taught her to keep the shades shut on what’s ahead.
It’s about this instant, on this Wednesday, as Swenson, 22, sits in her Harvard living room and connects through a tube her antibiotics – held in what looks like a balloon stuck in a baby’s bottle – to a port implanted three years ago above her right breast.
It’s about living with cystic fibrosis, the disease that slowly steals Swenson’s lungs, yet puts a dire emphasis on every shallow breath.
• • •
“We figure it’s been about three years now since the word ‘transplant’ came up in conversation,” said Lea Swenson, Andi’s mother.
They’re discussing the surgery now.
In some days or weeks or months, if all goes as planned, Andi Swenson will get a call, and on the other end someone will say that two lungs and a liver await her.
Swenson’s lungs operate at 20 percent of their capacity, and finally her name appears poised to find its way onto a list to receive a double-lung and liver transplant.
When she was just 10 months old, doctors told her parents – Lea and her husband, Eric – that their daughter had cystic fibrosis, a disease that affects about 30,000 people nationwide, according to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. The bodies of those with CF produce a thick, sticky mucus that clogs the organs and acts as a hotbed for infection.
Growing up, Andi was able to stay active, but the symptoms piled up over time.
“Pulmonary-wise, she did really well,” Lea Swenson said. “You would never know anything was wrong with her.”
• • •
The disease caused other problems in Andi Swenson’s early years. Enzymes needed for digestion were blocked from entering her stomach, making it hard for her to gain weight. And then there’s the diabetes and cirrhosis of the liver.
She was 13 when her lungs started giving her trouble.
But now the painful pulmonary symptoms have fully arrived. It often feels, she said, as if an elephant is sitting on her chest. The pain occurs in a cycle – at its worst, she gets admitted to the hospital for about a week of therapy, where physicians take measures to loosen and discard the excess mucus.
She gets started on antibiotics to kill the infection, and by the time she leaves the hospital, she’s feeling her best. But then the mucus starts building up, her chest getting heavier, bacteria growing, until Andi Swenson is not only sick and feverish, but struggling to breathe.
“It sucks,” she said, flashing a quick smile. At 18, with her lungs around 55 percent capacity, Andi Swenson suddenly found herself in the hospital about every three months. Today, it’s more like every six weeks.
“I knew mentally, in my head, why,” she said. “But it still was not computing because I was so used to only once a year.”
• • •
Swenson knows all the stories. She’s had friends with cystic fibrosis – friends she met on Facebook – who got the call and got their organs, only to die within a couple of years.
More than 80 percent of CF patients receiving lung transplants are alive a year later, and more than 50 percent are alive five years later, according to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
There are success stories: The family read about a man whose new lungs are functioning at more than 100 percent capacity, propelling him to marathons and a new life.
“It’s probably not forever, and she knows that,” Lea Swenson said. “But her quality of life right now basically is nothing. She sleeps late in the morning, she gets up, she eats, she does her breathing treatments and takes her medications and eats some more.”
When the Swensons get the call, Andi and Lea will board a jet to Cleveland, Ohio, to a special clinic. In the aftermath, after Andi is released, the two will stay in the area while Andi sees a doctor first daily, then weekly, until she’s released back to Harvard.
Seeking a transplant was Andi Swenson’s own decision, and she saw it as the only choice. She is 22. She wants to be able to breathe.
• • •
Finally those lungs and liver feel close.
“It’s just about to happen,” Eric Swenson said. “I think. Yeah, it’s just about to happen.”
Does his daughter agree?
“I hope it is,” Andi Swenson said, pausing briefly. “I don’t know. I can’t really think past today.”
They’ve developed a family motto, and mother, father and daughter have tattooed it onto their skin. In old English lettering, on Andi’s ankle, and Lea’s wrist, and Eric’s hand, it reads: Breathe On.
So Andi Swenson is here, taking her 25 to 30 pills a day, connecting the odd little antibiotics container to the device under her chest.
This illness is a full-time job. Andi Swenson lives breath by shallow breath.
How to help
The Swensons have developed several fundraisers to help cover the costs associated with Andi’s illness and transplant. Individuals can donate or learn about fundraisers at www.cotaforandis.com.
The family has also scheduled a “Breathe On Andi” 5K Walk/Run and an accompanying “Andi Swenson Benefit.”
If you go:
Andi Swenson 5K and benefit
What: 5K walk and run starting at 8 a.m., with a children’s fun run, bean bag tournament, bingo and pull tab, antique car show, bake sale, dunk tank, face painting, cookout and music throughout the day
Where: CashSavers, 1299 S. Division St., Harvard
When: 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Aug. 24
To sign up for the 5K: Visit CashSavers in advance or the morning of the event.

I did a post recently in which I stated regarding Bitcoin: ” I suppose it will find stability (if we may use such a lofty term) at about $9500.” Well, we’ve since tumbled to that level, and things are looking pretty shaky.
Liquidity moves markets!Follow the money. Find the profits!
Take a look at the chart below. The magenta shows the 61.6% Fibonacci level (and also the time when all the HODLer freaks were jumping up and down about how $BTC was heading to a million bucks). It has gotten carpet-bombed since then (green support) and, if we fail this level, we’re on our way to about $7100 (yellow tint).
The hundreds and hundreds of cryptos that exist outside of Bitcoin get dragged along for the ride, of course, and we can see Ethereum below has lost half of its value (!) since only June 26th. This is at a crucial support point. Break those trendlines, and the entire space is going to get Altuchered.
