UNITED NATIONS, December 13. /TASS/. The United Nations Security Council has failed to agree a statement on the Saturday terrorist attack in Syria’s Homs that claimed 18 lives, a well-informed source at the United Nations headquarters told TASS on Sunday.
According to the source, the Russia-initiated text was blocked by the United States. "The American delegation offered amendments that were unacceptable for the Russian side. So, the statement was not adopted," the source said.
Both Russia’s and U.S.’ diplomatic missions refrained from comment.
On December 12, terrorist blew up a car parked near a hospital in the al-Zahra neighborhood in Homs (185 kilometers off Damascus). According to the SANA news agency, the terrorist attack claimed 18 lives. Seventy more were wounded. France Presse said the Islamic State terrorist group had claimed responsibility for the attack.
Following the terrorist attack, Syria’s foreign ministry said in a message to United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and the Security Council that Syria saw the silence of the international community as an act of encouragement to terrorists and their patrons.
On Saturday, the United Nations secretary general’s office told TASS they were verifying information. No comment came on the following day either.

A system for real-time monitoring of contours during photogrammetric data acquisition is described. Sequential algorithms corresponding to different interpolation methods are analyzed. The output of the system consists of the displayed contours, the edited observations and the elevations at the grid nodes. The edited observations can be used as input to another system which is better for the present application. In such cases, the interactive system described acts as an on-line graphical editor of the measured elevations. In other cases the elevations at the grid nodes can be used, for example when generating contour maps.

That versatility placed hydroxychloroquine at the forefront of testing for potential COVID-19 treatments. Studies done in a lab have shown the prescription drug can have a fighting chance against coronaviruses, but these results do not necessarily mean the drug is safe or effective on COVID-19 patients. Still, large observational studies began after the FDA allowed emergency use of hydroxychloroquine on COVID-19 patients. So what have they found?

L, who asked that we not use her full name for her safety, is a Surabaya resident who goes to college in Malang. For practical reasons, she braved the three-hour ride to bring her motorcycle to her new home.
After three years of living in Malang, L knows full well not to take out her vehicle — which sports Surabaya license plates — anytime her hometown soccer team Persebaya takes on Malang’s Arema. She knows that doing so could make her a target for soccer hooligans, especially after an Arema defeat.
Headlines about spectator violence have marred the reputation of the beautiful game in soccer-obsessed Indonesia. They are also why many of us — ourselves included — initially cast most of the blame for the Kanjuruhan tragedy on hooligans.
For a long time, it had been easy to blame Indonesian soccer’s shortcomings — particularly on the fandom front — on hooliganism.
Not after Oct. 1, it seems.
More footage has emerged from the stadium in the days since the tragedy, showing instances of excessive brutality from police officers and military personnel to quell what looked like a manageable case of pitch invasion. Despite the pleas of spectators who did not participate in the riots, we can see videos of police officers firing tear gas into the stands, where children were present.
By the latest count, of the 131 people who died in the tragedy, 33 children were children — the youngest being a 4-year-old.
The blame game has quickly shifted from hooligans to law enforcers and soccer officials. Simply put, it’s hard to imagine that the Kanjuruhan death toll would be so high if police had refrained from firing tear gas, which triggered the deadly stampede, and if spectators had not been forced to squeeze out of the only two narrow exits that were open at the time.
That’s why heads are beginning to roll among the police force, with 10 commanders, including Malang’s police chief, having already been removed from their posts. Meanwhile, the National Police’s Internal Affairs Division continues to probe dozens of officers over the firing of tear gas in the stadium.
It seems failures related to security management, and not hooliganism, is the main factor holding back a restart of top-level domestic soccer in Indonesia.
A matter of admin and death
The game’s international governing body, FIFA, banned Indonesia from world soccer for a year in 2015 over the relatively trivial administrative matter of the government’s interference with the PSSI (Indonesian Football Association).
FIFA has yet to impose any sanctions on Indonesia in the wake of Kanjuruhan despite the scores of lives lost.
The government would be right to worry about any more bans, given that Indonesia is hosting the FIFA U-20 World Cup in May 2023. Sports Minister Zainudin Amali’s woefully ill-timed statement expressing his concern that the tragedy could jeopardize Indonesia’s hosting of the tournament speaks volumes of the government’s priorities.
Yet once the government sets its sights on a task, it has shown itself to be capable of commendable work.
Take the 2018 Asian Games. With the eyes of the continent firmly on Indonesia, the government pulled out all the stops to deliver an all but flawless major sporting event. Where there’s a will, there’s certainly a way.
It’s hard to imagine the U-20 World Cup would be any different. We will likely once again see venues revamped for the tournament, with ample security measures in place to ensure fun for the whole family at matches.
One can safely bet that, after the recent tragedy, security forces won’t employ a heavy-handed approach on spectators, many of whom will be of a completely different profile to the predominantly working-class who attend domestic league soccer matches. There certainly won’t be any tear gas used at the stadiums, at least, since it is banned by FIFA under its matchday safety and security regulations.
Unless FIFA says otherwise, the U-20 World Cup may kick off as scheduled and it may even end up being a fantastic showcase for the rising stars of world soccer.
Meanwhile, the domestic soccer league has been suspended indefinitely, at the explicit order of President Joko Widodo, while the official investigation into Kanjuruhan continues. When the league resumes — and it will, in all likelihood, due to its immense popularity — security personnel must value the lives of its spectators as highly as they did for those who attended the 2018 Asian Games and those who will attend the upcoming U-20 World Cup.
Respect is a key component of the beautiful game, and it must be given to and earned by everyone involved. Only then can Indonesian soccer rise from obscurity to a level that matches the people’s obsession with the sport.
After Kanjuruhan, Indonesian soccer is well into injury time, but the final whistle has not yet blown on it being able to make a dignified comeback.

Amazon Fire TV Taught Me These 3 Things!
Amazon Has Amazing Voice Recognition
If you are searching for a tv show, movie, music, or application, Amazon Fire TV has an amazing voice portal. I have always considered Google Voice Recognition to be one of the best on the market.
However, one of my friends from the UK tried this out yesterday and it picked up their British accent. I happened to think this was pretty cool.
Amazon Apps Are Evolving!
You know an app is pretty new when you look up the “Productivity” category and there are only 4 options for download. What I am talking about is the additional applications that you can download onto your Fire TV.
However, that being said, there are a lot of great apps on the device. For example, I was very impressed with the Pandora application. It even has a Flappy Bird app! I accidentally spent 45 minutes playing this game on the TV using just the remote!
Amazon Eliminates Major TV
Aside from live broadcasts and the other live shows and events, Amazon pretty much eliminates the need for TV. I didn’t really think this was true until I found a football news application and also downloaded an application for Bloomberg Plus which plays the latest world wide news.
All the TV shows you want to watch are available on Netflix or Amazon Prime. But even further, if you cannot find it on Amazon Prime, you can just buy the DVD or Blue ray download directly from Amazon. How cool, right?
I’d highly recommend buying the Amazon Fire TV, especially if you can get a discount on it. Now, I’m off to play some Flappy Bird!

I have a betta in a 5 gallon, and I feed him some of these bloodworms every other day. He absolutely loves them! And I was pleasantly surprised since my betta is a particularly picky eater!
Great treat for my betta and ghost shrimp tank. The little guys will do cartwheels for them!
I have Kissing Gouramis, Clown Loach, some Mollies and a 15" Plecostomus and they all LOVE these Bloodworms for a break from their vegetarian diets!
I bought 4 freeze dried blood worm bottles. Great website, easy to navigate. Prices were very reasonable. I definitely will buy all products for my fish from here. Thanks
My Betta really loves these. Once he tasted them he will not eat anything else, and begs for them every time he sees me.

My fishes love the taste of this product!

The chief inspector of hospitals has recently reported on local hospitals Care Quality Commission. The report on Queen Charlotte’s in Du Cane Road concludes it is “good”.
However Hammersmith Hospital, Charing Cross and St Mary’s Paddington are each given the verdict “requires improvement”.
Within those overall judgments there are some wide variations. For instance the A&E at Charing Cross was rated “good” while the Oupatients service was judged “inadequate”.
For St Mary’s the Critical Care and Maternity and gynaecology were both rated “good” but the A&E “inadequate.”
Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust chief executive Dr Tracey Batten said:
“While we are disappointed with our overall rating of ‘requires improvement’, we think the report is extremely constructive. It clearly sets out our challenges while also recognising the positive impact of our work over the past year and highlighting the great care that we already provide.
“We acknowledge that there are a few areas, such as cleanliness in St Mary’s A&E, that have simply not been acceptable and there can be no excuse for that. But we want to assure patients that this is the exception and that we have acted immediately to address the most pressing issues raised. For example, we have already put in extra staff support and refurbished the A&E at St Mary’s Hospital – with new flooring and lighting, more sinks and additional cleaning rotas. The CQC has now re-inspected St Mary’s A&E and has confirmed that the required improvements have been made.”
The Labour MP for Hammersmith Andrew Slaughter highlighted the contrasting verdicts on the A&E departments and saying it showed plans to close the A&E at Charing Cross are wrong. The problem with this point is that there are no such plan. The NHS have made clear that there will continue to be a full A&E department at Charing Cross. Mr Slaughter is full aware of this yet he persists with spreading the allegation. That makes him a liar.
But there is another point. The good news is that the local NHS failings have been exposed, detailed recommendations published to put them right and those measures are being taken – or indeed have already been taken.
How has this come about? How do we know what is going on? It is because this Government introduced this level of transparency. They introduced the post of Chief Inspector of Hospitals to act as whistleblower-in-chief and produce these reports. That came about after the scandal at Mid Staffs Hospital – when the mentality was one of “cover up” rather than facing up to problems and dealing with them. Disgracefully poor care continued for years because of a lack of transparency and accountability. That was the way the NHS was run when Andy Burnham was Health Secretary.
Andrew Slaughter voted against the legislation last year to establish a chief inspector of hospitals who could provide independent information about the quality of services. Now he is quoting from information that would have been suppressed had he won that vote. He should apologise for that desist from his scaremongering. No matter how frequently he repeats it that doesn’t make the lie about the Charing Cross A&E closing true.

SEATTLE/CHICAGO (Reuters) - Boeing Co BA.N is set to win approval for its grounded 737 MAX this week, but chinks are appearing in the brand as the most traumatic chapter in the jetmaker's history overshadows the planes' original billing of superlative performance.
When it returns to the skies next month as expected after a nearly two-year safety review, the "MAX" name will still be officially in place. Some airlines, however, have begun to soft-pedal references to the aircraft following two fatal crashes that killed 346 people.

One of our best discoveries for the garden this year has been Godetia. I think they were bought by accident, so they were sown around the middle of may, after all the planned seedlings were potted on we were left with these godetia seedlings. we didn’t know what to do with them so they stayed in their seed trays for a few weeks, they became rather straggly and didn’t look up to much at all. But Fliss potted them on, all of them going straight into a 10in (or thereabouts) terracotta pot.
Here’s a picture of what they eventually looked like. Next year the paln is to sow then directly into the flower beds, I think they should do quite well.

domain: agronomy


AbstractIn the last few decades, artificial ground freezing (AGF) has been used as a temporary soil stabilization and waterproofing technique in geotechnical engineering, especially in tunneling construction. In construction, drilling inaccuracy of freeze pipes occurs, slowing the formation of a connected frozen wall and in turn undermining the process of AGF. This study used a hydrothermal coupling finite-element model to investigate the heat transfer and formation of a frozen wall during the progress of AGF. The simulation results indicate that the drilling inaccuracy causes temperature fluctuation at the temperature monitoring point and prolongs the formation time of the frozen wall. The maximum drilling inaccuracy allowed in practice is recommended to be 0.2 m based on the model (established using the shield tunneling of Nanjing Subway Line 10). The low-temperature zone develops unevenly and finally forms a complete frozen wall with an elliptical ring in the presence of the seepage flow. Thus, the location of the temperature monitoring points needs to be reconsidered, rather than being distributed evenly around the perimeter of the tunnel in practical engineering, and more monitoring points should be placed to monitor the formation of the frozen wall.

PCT Day 24
Miles: 239.9 - 266.1
Photo: San Gorgonio Wilderness
Today was such a treat compared to the last three days. Very cruisy terrain with no huge climbs. Surrounded by huge trees while being in a much cooler climate. The miles came easy. Just like last week in San Jacinto, San Gorgonio was a welcomed change of scenery.
While the hiking was amazing, I was having a logistical problem that needed to be solved. There are two viable exits off the PCT to get into Big Bear. One is at mile 266.1 where all you need to do to get to and from town is find a hitch. Another is at mile 277.7 with a 2.5 mile side trail where you walk directly into town. If I did the 266.1 exit it would mean a 26 mile day but I could get to Big Bear today and take a zero tomorrow. If I did 277.7 it would mean two near 20 mile days in a row but fewer miles once I left Big Bear. It wasn’t until I was down to the wire that I convinced myself that I would only be saving 6.6 miles on my next trek out, due to that 2.5 mile side trail to get in and out of town. I said “screw it, I want to get to Big Bear today”, so I went on to hike my biggest day yet. A real bed to sleep in was just too good to pass up.
I eventually hit Big Bear, but since I got a late start, took too many long breaks, and went back and forth trying to figure out if I wanted to go into town today, I didn’t finish hiking until 10:00 PM. That meant getting a hitch was nearly impossible, I couldn’t get town food to celebrate getting to Big Bear, and not staying at the hostel where all the hikers were. I consider all of that as a mild “punishment” for hesitating on my plans too much. I did come away with some learning points though.
Getting into town at the first suitable exit point is usually the right one to take.
Getting into towns and simple terrain motivates me to hike more miles.
Time is valuable when approaching a town. That means no super long breaks, and no late starts.
I’ll try applying all of these when getting into the next town.

If a Discount Cheap Custom Caps does not have a new deal by then, his only options are to sign the tag and play on the resulting one-year deal or sit out the season.He has a long way to go, I think, to make a real splash here.They punted for the first time in the game, giving the ball back to the Lions as the first quarter expired.The most common way to create space is actually something that works out well for players: Renegotiating contracts.
We are getting some players back next time we play, which should help.I’m really happy to see Sarah calling the ballgame getting to be the first official .I think it depends when you play them, said Arians of a team trying to beat another team three times in a season.
He had the ball, patting it a bit, he came back my way and I was there to make a play.Photo By Matt May Tampa Bay Buccaneers NEW ORLEANS, LA – JANUARY 17 – Cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting #23 of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers intercepts a pass during the NFC Divisional Round game between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New Orleans Saints at Mercedes-Benz Superdome.The Bucs also added Rob Gronkowski, improved their backfield some, bolstered the offensive line in the draft, too.
We’ve got a couple bread-and-butter plays that we run over 150 times during the season from a bunch of different formations, but it’s the same blocking scheme.Through one week of practice, a few of them have really stood out in a positive way.Whatever we ask them to do, they’ll find a way to get the job done.Fans can join the NFL and USAA in honoring the military community by visiting Salute.Those are the hardest.I think Ronald needs a confidence boost and I think he’s going to get that.
When certain guys can’t for injury ‘this is a contact sport and things happen ‘it is good for the other guys to get reps and for them to get in there and prove to everybody that if they did get the chance to be in there, then they’ve got to take advantage of it and do a great job.We have to play strong games from here on out, until January.

Raising the ceiling
In today’s Wall Street Journal, Arthur Levine, former president of Columbia University’s Teachers College, writes of “The Suburban Education Gap.” Long-time readers of this blog know that America doesn’t have one education gap. There are really two. The first -- the fact that children from disadvantaged backgrounds are far less likely to graduate from high school college -ready than children from more advantaged circumstances -- gets much of the attention. Education reform efforts are usually focused on raising achievement levels for these children, which is certainly a worthy goal. When Americans hear that our children do poorly on international comparisons (like TIMSS and PISA) we assume it is because of high levels of poverty in inner cities. That’s part of it. But it’s only part. As Levine reminds us, “of American 15-year-olds with at least one college-educated parent, only 42 percent are proficient in math.” Even when you look at ritzy suburbs, only a few perform as well as students in Finland or Singapore. Evanston, Ill. does well. So does Scarsdale, N.Y. But places you’d think would be stellar, such as Greenwich, Conn., or Montgomery County, Md., or Grosse Point, Mich., do not outshine the international competition, Levine writes. Why is that? I’ve been pondering this in light of some observations of my own school district. Lower Merion in PA is known for being very good. The high school students win various academic competitions, and in that nice marketing letter accompanying my property tax bill, I learned about all the wonderful colleges they are admitted to. My son’s kindergarten class has iPads! But looking at what my son is being assessed on, the expectations for being at benchmark largely center on being able to recognize numbers and letters. If you can do that, all is good. In a world of many woes, raising the ceiling does not feel like an urgent educational priority. But it should be. As Levine writes, “The international achievement gap makes the U.S. less competitive and constitutes a threat to national strength and security. Stanford economist Eric Hanushek has estimated that America would add $1 trillion annually to its economy if it performed at Canada’s level in math.” So why aren’t we focused on raising achievement levels among kids who aren’t stuck in basket case schools? I don’t think it’s an either/or proposition, that by raising standards for such children, we’ll take our eyes off the ball for kids from disadvantaged backgrounds. You can raise the ceiling and the floor. Refusing to look at how low our ceiling is amounts to sticking our heads in the sand. The existence of the “suburban education gap” is why I get frustrated by narratives lamenting pushy parenting and how much pressure children in well-to-do suburbs are allegedly under. We need to relax and not push academic achievement so hard, the story goes. But while there’s no point in making children miserable, the reality is that we’re not asking nearly enough of kids. There is no kindness in failing to challenge a bright child’s little mind in the days when she still thinks learning is wonderful.

Wife planted a number of large tubs of spring bulb which have now
finished and the tibs are wanted for the bedding plants.
Clearing out the old soil I wondered what I could do with it. In our old
house, it just went on the compost heaps. but here with limited space
and just one full dalek I wondered if I could reuse it at the bottom of
the tubs, may be with some added Growmore, and top up the tubs with new
compost. I've sieved it a bit to extract all the little bulblets and
most of the roots.
Is this wise, or will she just have very poor bedding plant display?

Outlines how Snapshots work within Qumulo Core including:
- Snapshots and Storage
- Snapshot Deletes
- Cluster running Qumulo Core 2.5.0 and above
The Qumulo Core file system has an entry for each version of every file. If any data in a file is modified after a snapshot has been taken, we create a new entry for that version of the file which points to just the new data. This has several benefits including:
- Instantaneous Snapshots
- No storage is consumed when a snapshot is taken
- No performance penalty for taking a snapshot
- Little to no performance penalty for reading and writing data from the filesystem in the presence of snapshots
New data is written alongside the original. When possible, the new version of the file shares data with the old. When data is written to a snapshotted file, there will then be two entries stored in the file system as two different versions of the same file. As more data is modified, more file data is added to this entry.
This allows us to preserve snapshotted data for everything in the Qumulo Core file system including file data, directory entries, creation/modification time, permissions, and more.
Snapshots and Storage
In Qumulo Core, a snapshot is taken instantaneously and no extra storage overhead is needed. The snapshot data then accumulates over time as data in the file system is modified which allocates new storage space for the data and links it into the file metadata.
Consider the following 4MB file:
- First, the file is filled with 4MB of data and a snapshot is taken
- Then, 1MB in the middle of the file is modified
- The filesystem allocates a new 1MB region for the modified data
- 3MB of the original 4MB of data is shared between both versions of the file
- 1MB of new data exists in the newest, or “live,” version of the file
- 1MB of old data exists only in the snapshotted version of the file
- The total storage usage for this file is now 5MB
If that particular 1MB is rewritten again, the existing live data would simply be overwritten without allocating the new space. If a different region of the file is rewritten instead, Qumulo Core will allocate more storage.
Storage usage is driven directly by the workload and data is only duplicated when necessary or on demand. There is no performance penalty for taking a snapshot and little to no performance penalty for reading and writing data from the filesystem in the presence of snapshots.
When you delete a snapshot, it is immediately removed from the list of snapshots and is no longer accessible. The space consumed by that snapshot is then recovered in a background process that frees data blocks that are no longer used by any snapshot.
Although the snapshot disappears immediately, the background process may take some time to reclaim space for the file system. To monitor progress, you can run the following command during deletion to track the reclaimed space as the snapshot capacity decreases.
You should now have an overall understanding of how Snapshots work within Qumulo Core

Readings in Russian poetics: formalist and structuralist views
The Formal methodis a code of literary criticism, having its analogues in other than verbal arts, which arose in Russia shortly before the 1920s. Part of a larger momentum which in general turned away from theory as a means to understanding art, as for instance, did scholarship in the fine arts in Germany, the Formalists undertook to establish literary study on a new, specific basis. They wished to limit themselves to the actual instance of art in front of them, and to bring to it only such materials as would an empirical investigator; theirs was, in the words of a spokesman, "a special scientific discipline concerned with literature as a specific system of facts." In this system they wished to discover the defining features: what is it in a work of literature that makes it specifically a literarywork? These are the issues raised by the Formalists. The subsequent history of their movement is an elaboration of this theoretical ground. Examples of Formalist thinking from the movement's origins through its major redefinitions and most significant expansions show much of the notable work that has been done in furthering the cause of literary studies as a systematic discipline. This volume is a collection of the most important contributions concerning the Formalist school, most of them translated for the first time from the Russian or the Czech. The editors have included articles on the general literary theory, on problems in the study of poetry, on selected problems in prose, and on specific literary works (including some by Dickens and O. Henry). The contributors include B. M. Ejxenbaum, Roman Jakobson, M. M. Baxtin, V. N. Volosinov, and others. In addition, the editors have each contributed retrospective and summarizing articles.

A no knead recipe that turns out nicely risen bread with a glorious crust.
King Arthur, I think I love you.
Recipe from the King Arthur Flour Blog.
I admit to being rather skeptical. This is the loaf just before I slash it and get ready to throw it in the oven. Look how limp. It barely even reaches my 2nd knuckle!
But would you just look at this impressive rise? Within a few moments of being popped in the hot oven, the bread puffs up bigger than a puffer fish and by the end of the baking it's turned that fantastic deep golden brown.
And it wasn't super dense inside :) YAY! Guess what's going to become a part of the regular rotation while it's not too hot to be cranking the oven up to 450?


GNSS FREQUENCY BANDS and SIGNALS
Electronic devices communicate by sending/receiving electromagnetic waves, called signals. Electronic signals transmitted by an electronic device travel through space arriving at all receivers available within their range. Then, how is it possible that so many electronic devices transmitting so many kinds of signals at the same time and receivers are able to hear only the ones that want to hear? Signal frequency is the answer to this question. In simple terms frequency is the number of waves that pass a fixed place in a given amount of time. The common way to measure frequency is to count the number of waves that occur in a second. The associated unit is hertz (abbreviated Hz) named after German physicist Heinrich Rudolf Hertz. Antennas are used to transmit and receive electronic signals at a certain frequency. Current technology allows a signal antenna to operate (transmit or receive) at multiple frequencies at different fractions of time.
Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) are no exception. Like all other electronic devices, GNSS systems also communicate through electronic signals, i.e., they transmit signals via satellites at certain frequencies and receivers with antennas tuned to those frequencies can collect those signals to process and determine position accurately. Following the successful deployment and operation of the pioneering Global Positioning System (GPS) by the US, other GNSS satellite constellations have been placed by other nations. Each GNSS system is designed to transmit signals at multiple frequencies to ensure reception. Available GNSS systems are listed below with corresponding signal names and broadcast frequencies.

Organic gardening is also cheap for the most part. Here are some suggestions on helping you in becoming a good organic gardener.
A good way to obtain fertilizer is by making your own compost. A fun method to make this is to start a small worm composting bin. Red wiggler worms, soil, kitchen scraps and shredded newspaper will be a good base for your compost bin.
Weeds are very hard to get rid of garden you have. This organic weed killer will not harm the environment safe.
Pine makes a wonderful mulch that is great. Cover the beds with a couple inches of needles and as they decompose, as they will decompose and disperse their acid throughout the soil.
Even though the insects remain there, you can avoid the damage they cause, keeping everyone happy.
The garlic will be matured when the tops start to turn brown.
Some common examples are petunias and ageratum. If you’re not sure if your seeds need sunlight, check the seed package or search online for the information.
Don’t let the little chores in your organic garden pile up. If your busy life prevents you from tending your garden every day, there are some small steps you can take to not have all that work build up on you. For example, snatch out a weed or two whenever you pass by the garden, you could clear a few bunches of weeds between checking on the burgers.
If you’re planning on gardening inside, you should ensure that you think about how much light is available for them. If you want indoor plants, a plant that requires little sunlight will be more comfortable and healthy. You can also consider using grow-lights for this exact purpose.
When it’s time to dig a hole for a shrub or a tree in an organic garden, dig irregular holes with rough sides. If the shovel “glazes” any sides of the hole, you’ve probably packed the dirt to tight, which can interfere with the roots.
Your children will enjoy the experience of working with your organic gardening endeavors. A garden can be a great learning experience for your children, and will give you an opportunity to bond with them while you produce healthy food.
When you are purchasing tomato seedlings for your organic garden, keep an eye on lush green starts with root systems that are bad. These starts will stick around on the main plant for several weeks, inhibiting their growth.
When your seeds sprout, they can survive in somewhat cooler temperatures. Watch the seeds closely to know how to go about this.
The vegetables will decay quickly and put back important nutrients to your plants. You can also use some for composting, but you can also use some of it to see immediate benefits.
If you sell your crops and label them organic, you need to secure organic garden certification. This can boost sales and creating a loyal customers that you’re providing the best to them.
You must be sure to mulch to your garden or flowerbed with about three inches of materials that are organic. This affects your garden in a variety of ways, including enriching the soil, inhibiting the growth of unsightly weeds, and creating a noticeably more professional look.
Know what to look for when to buy plants for your organic garden. This is especially important when buying annuals or perennials. You need to be sure to get ones that you get the budded ones and not in bloom. This is so they can start growing a stronger root systems in the garden.
Hopefully the useful advice in this article will help you create and maintain your own beautiful, healthy, and toxin free organic garden. You should notice more wildlife present in your garden if you use natural methods.

MEP - The Muko Empowerment Program
Providing Handcraft Training, Fair Wages, and Market Opportunities
Muko is a poor, rural region of southwest Uganda where jobs are scarce and incomes for individuals and families are typically less than $1.79 per day. The residents of Muko SubCounty are subsistence farmers and there is little opportunity to earn money in this rural area.
In 2008, ACT created the Muko Empowerment Program (MEP). This program is designed to provide income opportunities for the women and men of Muko Sub County through handcraft training, production and sales. Over 40 women in Muko are involved in the MEP Program making beautiful baskets, jewelry, and sewn items. The women earn wages for their wares from ACT which help to pay for their children’s tuition. The crafts are purchased and sold by ACT with all sales returning to fund programs for the Muko community, including handcraft training.
BUY A CRAFT, MAKE A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE!
There are about 15 women who are sewing handcrafts for ACT. They are most willing to learn to make new items which they do through watching videos that volunteer seamstresses in the U.S. provide them to teach them the patterns. This is a spirited group of talented and very resourceful women.
African fabrics are known for their wonderful patterns and colors. The women use these fabrics to create stuffed animals, placemats, table runners, handbags and a variety of other products.
In addition to the Ugandan women in our program, there are approximately 10 women in the U.S. that also sew items for ACT. These items are made locally due to not being able to resource the materials in Uganda. The U.S. sewing women also create videos os sewing patterns to send to the Ugandan women so that they can learn new patterns.
Beautiful hand-woven baskets that come in a variety of sizes, shapes, colors and patterns are available for sale. In addition to finding them useful, you will see they are also works of art. Depending upon the size and design of the basket, each basket takes between 3-5 days to make.
Another item available through ACT is jewelry made by the women of Uganda. The jewelry is made with beautiful beads created from magazines and other paper goods. These beads are made by cutting the paper into long triangles and rolling tightly. They are then lacquered and strung into gorgeous necklaces, bracelets and earrings.
All of these beautiful, hand-crafted items are available at church alternative gift fairs, several Michigan art fairs, a store front in Midland, Michigan, ARTREACH in Mt. Pleasant, MI and online - right here .
The store is now located at:
509 S Homer Road, Midland MI
Hours by appointment: (989) 698-6581
111 E Broadway, Mt. Pleasant, MI

A house made of natural wood is beautiful, colorful, environmentally friendly, but only if mold has not appeared in it. Microscopic fungi gradually destroy building materials and harm human health.
Why does mold appear in a wooden house
Mold fungi occur in high humidity. In conditions of constant dampness, they multiply, forming whole colonies. Gradually, mold spreads along the walls, ceiling, floor of a wooden house, even penetrating into the ceilings.
Increased humidity in a wooden house occurs due to:
- absence or poor performance of the ventilation system;
- metal-plastic windows that are not switched to ventilation mode;
- insufficient heating in the house with increased dampness on the street;
- freezing of walls, foundations or due to their poor-quality insulation, waterproofing;
- pipe and roof leaks;
- the formation of cracks, cracks in walls, ceilings.
Varieties of household mold
There are several types of fungi that can multiply in wood. The main ones are:
- white – like cotton wool. These microorganisms quickly destroy the structure of wood, are difficult to destroy;
- black – appear as gray and black spots. Some varieties of this mold are dangerous to humans, as they can penetrate the skin, respiratory tract and even lead to death. Black fungi lend themselves well to destruction with antiseptics, chemicals;
- blue – look like a blue bloom. These microorganisms not only infect wood fiber, but also lay passages in it through which water flows. This leads to an increase in the moisture content of the logs, their corrosion from the inside.
How to get rid of mold
In order for the fight against the fungus to be successful, it is necessary to first eliminate the cause of its occurrence – the source of excess moisture. External manifestations of mold can be eliminated:
- mechanically. In case of superficial damage to wood by a fungus, colonies of microorganisms are removed by grinding. Remove layers of material carefully to prevent the spread of spores;
- with the help of fungicides. These are antifungal chemicals that can stop the growth of a colony, prevent its appearance in the future. They are applied with a brush or spray to the affected areas of the wood;
- folk remedies. Vinegar is a natural fungicide. It is capable of killing molds without allowing the spread of spores. Apply it by spraying.
How to prevent mold in your home
It is easier to defend against fungus than to get rid of. This requires:
- during the construction of a house, treat wood with an antifungal impregnation;
- regulate the operation of the ventilation system;
- prevent hypothermia at home;
- timely eliminate roof leaks, pipes;
- ventilate the premises regularly.
The wooden house needs special care. Only in this case, the housing will retain its unique natural flavor and be safe for its owners.

Image Encryption Using Chaotic Cat Mapping in the Discrete Fourier Transform
The paper presents an secure image using the two dimensional chaotic cat mapping (2D-CCM) in the Discrete Fourier Transform domain (DFT). The ciphering phase begins by applying the DFT on the plainimage to be encrypted and the resulted Fourier transformed image are scrambled using the 2D-CCM and finally an inverse DFT is applied to obtain the final encrypted image. The decryption phase applies a reverse procedure to get the original plainimage. A set of encryption test experiments are employed to inspect the proposed DFT based 2D-CCM image cryptosystem. The experimental results verified and confirmed the superiority of the proposed DFT based 2D-CCM image cryptosystem.

If you’re one of the 3 readers of this blog, you may have noticed that the content of this blog has shifted quite a bit over the past year. When I wrote the “About” section of Library Voice three years ago, I said the following:
My primary purpose for this blog is to keep current with issues and changes in the library environment. As a Reference & Instruction Librarian, web manager, and Business & Economics Bibliographer, my interests (and job duties) tend to be all over the map. As such, the writings of this blog may cover a lot of different areas as well. Technology, reference and instruction, library budgets, even my own guitar playing (although not very good) may be discussed in this blog.
Over the years I’ve mostly written about libraries and technology, as evidenced by the categories of posts on my blog. However, like many folks, I’ve started losing interest in simply limiting my blogging to library issues. There’s quite a few library blogs out there now, so it seems that many of the topics are being covered pretty adequately. In looking at my blog statistics, it’s interesting to see that the most popular posts are generally not library-related. For example, there are posts that deal with resetting a Flip Mino, gaming, using the Plam Treo Browser effectively, and even Guitar Hero on South Park.
With the coming of spring, I’m getting really geared up for riding my bike. I’m trying to be better about logging my rides, and taking pictures or videos of the rides. One of the things I have contemplated the idea of just using this blog for library-related posts, and starting another blog for cycling-specific topics, and perhaps another for video blogging. The problem with three blogs is trying to figure out what content to post where. For example, if I take a video on a bike ride, would it go on the cycling blog or the video blog, or both? I’ve been trying the dual blog approach with a blog set up to write about cycling, but I’ve been ignoring it quite a bit. I’ve also found that I haven’t been giving this blog as much attention as I’d like to either. I know some librarians have one blog for library things, and another for other topics (knitting comes to mind for some reason). I don’t have enough time/content/ideas to keep two or more blogs running all the time, so, if I went the multiple-blog route, I probably would wind up having a bunch of dead blogs. However, with so excellent niche blogs out there, it is tempting to start a new blog for every single topic you’re interested in.
Several months ago I changed the tagline of this blog to say “Libraries, Tech, Games, and Bikes” to reflect the many topics that interest me, and started down the path moving this blog from a professional librarian blog to a more personal/professional blog that covers the topics in the tagline. I’ve probably shyed away from writing too much about bikes and games, mostly because the name of the blog is “Library Voice.” I’m going to be posting more content here that may not necessarily relate to Library things, but since I’ve got the domain name for another 2 years at least, I’m not likely to change the name anytime soon. I also have no idea what I’d change the name to, as ChadBoeninger.com sounds both boring and a little vain.
I suppose this is yet another example of how our professional and personal lives are merging. I’ve found that trying to keep the personal and professional separtate is too much work. In an effort to reduce that work while blogging more, Library Voice will now cover more of my personal interests as well as professional topics. If you’re a frequent reader of this blog, I hope you’ll stick around during this transition. Thanks for reading.
When the time comes, you should change the name to something like “Hanging(with)Chad” and see if anyone gets the 2000 election reference. OK, that probably wasn’t all that helpful. Sorry, it’s really hot in our library today. 🙂
Ha. Yeah, anyone with the name “Chad” would love to forget those days. Particularly if your name is Chad and you’re a democrat. Thanks for stopping by, Gary.
It is interesting that you post this. For me, it was timely, since I am going through a similar introspective stage. I do have a professional blog (which I use for library, instruction, and literacy issues), and a personal blog (for everything else). There are times when I wonder as well what goes where, or what would be appropriate. By setting up for myself the professional versus the personal blog, it creates the need to be selective. Plus the professional blog is the one I would use to make an impression on people who may one day hire me. Sure, those folks may jump over to the personal blog, but the professional one is where I want them to see I reflect on my practice as an academic librarian and the profession.
So, a bit more for me to think about. At the end of the day, as a blogger and writer, you have to go with what works. Good luck, and I think I will hang around a bit longer to see what you come up with.
Best, and keep on blogging.
Bloglines alone reports 78 subscribers, so I think you’re doing better than 3 😉

A Letcher County company which specializes in welding for the mining and trucking industries has received a $147,500 grant from the federal government to expand the company’s operation at Jenkins and to hire eight new workers.
The grant is going to Jabo and Sons and will enable the company to retain seven current employees and hire eight additional workers over the next two years. The expansion includes Jabo moving from its current 2,000 square-foot facility into an 8,000 square-foot building and purchasing additional equipment to fulfill new contracts.
Jabo and Sons was organized in 1986 by James Fouts Sr. to provide specialized welding, pipe bending, molding and other machining type of operations. Its primary customers include the trucking industry, mining industry, and other types of businesses that need machine and metal fabrication work.
The Rural Business Enterprise Grant was announced this week by U.S. Congressman Hal Rogers and is being administered by the Southeast Kentucky Economic Development Corporation (SKED).
“Once again, SKED is leading our region by generating real economic opportunities for the people of Letcher County and across southeast Kentucky,” said Rogers. “Sound investments, technical assistance, and low-cost small business financing are the tools necessary to bring high-quality jobs and innovation to our rural communities. I applaud those who are working to make Jenkins an even stronger community and look forward to the success that lies ahead.”
“This USDA funding enables SKED to assist small business owner James Fouts Sr. to expand his business and hire more people at a time when jobs are scarce across the nation,” said SKED Executive Director Greg Jones. “It is our privilege to be able to play a small part in seeing a 24-year-old business succeed and expand in eastern Kentucky at a time when it’s needed most.”

Kolomna Plant (part of ZAO "Transmashholding") has completed production of a set of diesel-generator sets for standby power systems under construction unit number 4 Beloyarsk (Zarechny, Sverdlovsk region).. Over the past 20 years, this is the first diesel domestic production capacity of more than 1 MW, supplied to the Russian nuclear power plants.
By order of "Atomenergomash" Kolomna plant designed and built the set diesel generator sets consisting of two DGU4000 capacity of 4,000 kW and a capacity of three DGU3200 3200kVt designed for reliable power plant in the event of a failure of external power supply, in order to ensure an orderly shutdown of the reactor and subsequent maintenance it in a safe condition. DGU3200 DGU4000 and passed the required tests set forth in the regulations and rules applicable to the equipment plant, which confirmed their compliance with the customer’s specifications.
JSC "Kolomna factory" in September 2012 provides a phased shipment received by the customer, and in 2013 will contract supervision commissioning of the plants.As the power plant diesel generator used 16CHN26/26 engine, developed on the basis of serial standard series diesel engines D49. When designing the DSU used the experience to back engines for the nuclear power plant in Bushehr and 10D49 engines for naval ships. Automatic control systems allow for operation of the entire complex in automatic mode without attendants.
To date, the combined alternative piston diesel engines for use as back-up power systems for nuclear safety does not exist and, according to experts, will not long enough. Kolomna plant operates to create a base backup diesel generator unit capacity of 6300 kW for electricity safety channels on the basis of one diesel. This diesel engine is designed to operate on the types of NPPs with VVER nuclear power plant in 2006 and the POI. In the framework of the federal target program for the development of diesel engine manufacturing plant in Russia on a new diesel — generator based on the V — type 20 — cylinder diesel engine CHN26, 5/31 with a nominal capacity of 6300 kW. Development is carried out taking into account all of the regulatory requirements for prospective backup diesel generator plant.
The Russian government has set a target for 2030 to increase the share of nuclear power generation in total electricity production up to 25-30% (today it is 16%). It is planned to build a total of 26 nuclear reactors.
JSC "Kolomna plant" has the license to design and manufacture equipment for nuclear power plants and the reference for the production of diesel generator for nuclear power plants. In 2004, the company has made a brand new, fully automated power plant second-class security for nuclear power plants "Bushehr-1" in Iran, which has been tested and confirmed compliance with RD EO 0052-00, and the American standard IEEEStd387-1995, acting in the nuclear Energy. Currently Kolomna plant is the sole producer in Russia backup diesel generators for nuclear power plants.
