Main Article Content
In Indian subcontinent monsoon affects billions of lives, even modest alterations in spatiotemporal pattern may lead to significant socioeconomic stress in the region. Monsoon also affect creation, rejuvenation, and sustenance of lakes. Freshwater lakes habitats various biological assemblages that translates in ecological quality of water. During monsoon, heavy inflow of runoff water can significantly alter species assemblages and their association with quality of water. This study evaluated changes in macroinvertebrates dynamics of Ranchi (urban) and Kanke (semi-urban) lakes located in Chota Nagpur Plateau, North-eastern India. Results indicated higher abundance of macroinvertebrate in Ranchi lake than Kanke lake. However, taxa richness was greater in Kanke lake in comparison to Ranchi lake. Monsoon had higher impact on abundance of taxonomic order under family Gastropoda. Post-monsoon increase in abundance of Basommatophora (14%), Neotaenioglossa (14%), and Littorinimorpha (13%) were observed. Likewise, Architaeniogiossa, incertae sedis, Haplotaxida were least affected taxonomical orders during investigated seasons. Both lakes were dominated by collector-gatherers (CG), however, Kanke lake indicated richness in diversity of FFGs. CGs were also less motivated by seasonal alteration before, during and after monsoon. In conclusion, pre-monsoon, monsoon and post-monsoon seasons largely affects abundance of macroinvertebrates in both lakes. Runoff rainwater supports macroinvertebrate development through addition of nutrients. This study indicated that Ranchi lake contains high abundance of scrapers (SC) and grazers (GZ), those are associated with higher anthropogenic activities. Likewise, higher taxonomical richness in Kanke lake indicated more diverse and healthy ecosystem.

South Africa’s air quality standards are weaker than the World Health Organisation’s guidelines, and yet they are exceeded on a regular basis, putting people’s health and lives at risk. The Highveld was recognised as a pollution hotspot by the DEA with the aim to monitor and regulate industry’s emissions to protect people’s health. Seven years have passed with no improvement in the air quality.
Recently, Eskom made public its health reports commissioned in 2006, which indicate the eight power stations operating at the time were cumulatively responsible for 17 deaths and 661 respiratory hospital admissions per year. In response to Eskom’s claim in a recent newspaper article that the health statistics are incorrect, partner NGOs groundWork, Earthlife Africa Johannesburg and the Centre for Environmental Rights have written an open letter to the Eskom CEO, Collin Matjila.
Eskom has applied for ‘rolling postponements’ – which amount to exemption – for 14 of its coal-fired power stations, claiming that to implement pollution abatement technology across its fleet would cost up to R200 billion. Most recent studies show that the cost to the state’s public health budget for illnesses related to coal combustion equals a similar amount of R230 billion.

Forex Trading Order Cancels Other (OCO)
An order cancels other order, also known as an OCO, is a Forex trading order that consists of both a stop order and a limit order. When you place an Order Cancel Other, you actually place two orders, and need to set limit and stop levels. When one level is reached, one of the orders will be executed, either the stop or the limit, and the other will be canceled.
With OCO orders, you cover yourself both ways.
Trading 212: How to use One Cancels the Other (OCO) orders
Lets say you want to buy the EUR/USD currency quote, the current price of which is 1.2776. If you're a smart investor, you'll want to place a limit order and a stop order.
- The limit order will be set in order to make sure the ask price is placed only if the currency reached a certain rise - let's say 1.290.
- The stop order will be set in order to cancel the order if the currency price drops to a certain level - let's say 1.270.
To sum up, Forex trading Order Cancel Other orders are popular Forex signal trading orders, that are used to enable investors to place both stop and limit orders.
When one order is placed, the other is canceled automatically.
This enables traders to partake in other activities rather than constantly monitor their stock.

The MC60/B Cruiser contains standard features and technology comparable to other cruisers and battleships in the modern era. Its computers, sensors, and other systems are of similar codes and specifications, with comparable analogs of other ships from other galactic governments.
- Charged Armor Plating: Like the MC120 Resolute, the Defiance-Type features a charged armor plating coursing around the ship, which absorbs roughly half the energy that strikes the hull, dispersing it in a manner that reduces the damage done to the vessel. It has the benefit of not overloading or fail like conventional ones, consistently providing a defensive measure to the vessel.
- Power Converter
- Durability: The MC60/B combines the durability provided by its deflector shields with its charged armor plating, a honeycomb like hull design to reduce damage spread, and a resilient turadium frame.
- Power Converter: The new models now include Power Converters and a small reserve Power Generator, which allows them to boost one of their combat systems in battle, or assist with a rapid startup sequence.
- Hangarless: The MC60/B has no complement of starfighters carried within it, having been purpose built as a toughen battleship of the line.
- Unassigned Energy: In combat, the reserve power must be assigned by the crew or droid or it is not utilized or directed. This means when ambushed by enemy craft, the vessel is not able to perform at its full potential for a time.
- One System at a Time: The corvette’s power converter can only direct its reserve power to a single combat system at a time, taking several moments to stop the flow of energy to one system, redirect it, and begin the flow of energy to the next system.
The MC60/B Defiance-type Cruiser, manufactured by Mon Calamari Shipyards, has been designed as a work horse derived from the Mark II Assault Frigates cobbled together by the ancient Rebel Alliance. Rather than built from pieces of damaged or impounded Dreadnought-class Heavy Cruisers the Defiance was purpose built as a Ship-of-the-Line for naval service, with only slightly modifiable interior configurations.
Like its predecessor, the MC60/B is built around a central bulbous body with two smaller modules to either side, four rear fins protruding from the engine housings, and a ventral tower containing non-essential personnel and systems. The majority of its weaponry is placed in turrets along a ridge within the central body and modules, and along the ventral ridge to the spire. Contrary to most vessels, the MC60/B has a ventral bridge, nestled at the base of the spire. Offensively, the MC60/B matches its predecessor with fifteen turbolaser batteries fifteen heavy turbolaser cannons, and fifteen laser cannons which can pull double duty as powerful point defense weapons or light capital ship weapons. ACS Witch Fire CIWS and Ra Missile Turrets operate as dedicated point defense weapons, situated to provide overlapping fields of fire around the entire vessel.
The armor of the Defiance is heavy, constructed around a honeycomb hull configuration. The hull, consisting of damage reduction armor and energy charged hull plating is designed to reduce the force of turbolasers, ion cannons, and kinetic strikes to the hull, pulsing with energy to redirect a portion of the strike away from the hull granting the vessel its remarkable resilience. This defensive matrix is layered beneath military grade deflector shields as is found on most vessels.
MC60/B has been fitted with a Power Converter which it uses to modulate the flow of energy from its primary reactor to amplify its combat systems. Using this system it is able to boost either its weapons, shields, or engines while in combat. It takes the system a few short moments to stop the flow of energy to one system, redirect the powerflow, and re-enable the system once more, but provides the vessel with much more versatility than it would otherwise possess.

Poetry review – WHEN I THINK OF MY BODY AS A HORSE: Pat Edwards is moved by the tenderness and honesty of Wendy Pratt’s poetry.
The opening poem of this collection feels like an horrific near-death experience where someone either contemplates or gets very near to throwing themselves under a train,
and a train hurtles by so close the lights halo your hair.
The utter horror of this moment is made so real that the reader can’t imagine anyone being able to write it unless they had lived through such an event. It almost hurts; takes your breath away. This sets the scene for a whole series of equally astounding poems that put the reader through a range of physical experiences, including rites of passage lived through by many girls and women, that are predominantly of the body but also inevitably of the emotions. However, this is the journey of a woman who loses a child and mourns for nine years and counting.
In ‘What I Learned from the Animals of My Childhood’, Pratt lists lessons it might be possible to learn from common animals, “From the nesting house martins/I leaned that spit and mud are good enough/to hold a home together.” The poem continues:
From the roosting bats I learned that even in a pitch-black attic of suitcase-safe memories, a whole dark-hearted life might erupt pulsing from the smallest cracks.
Pratt roots herself and us to our animalistic natures and, in so doing, reminds us we cannot escape our instincts and feral tendencies. There is a brief moment of beauty when the poet finds love and companionship, “the gentlest person” she has ever met, who makes her “wonder/what it would be like to believe you/ when you said you loved me.”
The poems remember a time before pregnancy, when a couple have talked about having a family, when they “went from being two/to the imaginary three.” The awful reality is that this couple is destined to face utter heartbreak; she will have “cystic ovaries”, he “slack sperm floundering/on the rim” of her cervix. She in particular will endure endless examinations and intimate procedures, all laced with disappointment and endless longing for a good outcome. In ‘Two Week Wait’ for this couple,
Love was needles and charts and scans, love was clinic visits and operations, love riddled us with drugs, love shook us with hope, love gave us you, love lost us both, love lost us all.
The precious memory of actually carrying a child is captured in ‘My Favourite Memory’, but even in this poem there is an undercurrent of fear that things will go wrong:
Now we lie on the bed, resting as instructed. I lie on my side as instructed. I have followed the instructions to the letter. I have done everything right.
The poetry of loss follows, in all its messy, painful, bloody and inevitably biological reality. Soon there is a funeral to plan and music to choose, questions to ask, “Houdini Girl, how did you disappear?” And now this no-longer-a-mother woman doesn’t seem to fit in amongst ‘The Circle of Sisterhood’, “they were facing inwards/and their prams were locked/like spokes on a turning wheel.” The ‘Schrodinger’s Baby’ mother misses all the things she can imagine about motherhood and “there is never an answer to anything.” It’s a dark time with depression for company, constant reminders of what might have been, the relentless insomnia.
The reader learns that this kind of loss doesn’t just go away. In ‘What I Know’ the poet imagines the mummified body of her dead child, “wizened; a dead, dried fruit/of a child”, and on what would have been her ‘Sixth Birthday’, “a kindling/of hot, slim limbs, your shape/not quite removed from babyhood.” In ‘Seven’ the mother visits the grave and wants to reach her hand down through the soil “feathering a fingertip touch to the corner/of your coffin, feeling for the smooth round/of the edge.”
Still the couple are collecting eggs and trying to conceive, until they finally have to accept:
This is not a Disney fairytale. This is 100% Grimm: a woodcut forest and a gingerbread house and I am the witch, or I am the oven, stoked with hot coals, burning children. I am done.
Birthdays come and go, ‘Eight’, ‘Nine’, and some sort of acceptance “like living in a foreign country.” The poet acknowledges that she has “been sick with grief/heavy with it/entombed by it.” The disappointment that her body could not give her or hold onto the precious baby she longed for is replaced by a respect for how resilient a body can be,
Now my body is a horse, I see it is loyal, it is incredible… I do not blame it for lost babies, it did its best. I do not blame myself for lost babies. I did my best.
I am grateful that these poems took me on this journey. At times I wept, carried away by the emotional trauma and wanting to cradle this woman in my arms and make things right, knowing I could not. These difficult themes have been tackled by other poets, of course, because this is a story that has been lived by many women and their partners. What I found so engaging and even enlightening in the telling of this particular story is that the poems are both raw and tender, honest and unflinching. This book has to be some sort of gift to all women who have tried to be mothers, longed to be mothers, nearly made it to being mothers, or were mothers for too short a time.

At least three people were killed by fires that swept more than 15,000 acres in Great Smoky Mountains National Park and neighboring Gatlinburg, Tennessee, where more than 100 buildings, including a 16-story hotel in the colorful resort town, were damaged or destroyed. Crews worked into the night Tuesday to continue to assess damage in the park, though the historic LeConte Lodge was said to have survived the conflagration without damage.
Great Smoky Mountains National Park
UPDATED: Forest Fire Leads To Closure Of Newfound Gap And Other Roads In Great Smoky Mountains National Park
A wildfire burning not far from the roof of Great Smoky Mountains National Park on Monday led to closure of the Newfound Gap Road, Cherokee Orchard Road, and Elkmont Road due to the fire crossing the road and thick smoke creating "almost white-out conditions," while a second fire close to the western edge of the park led to a voluntary evacuation of a Gatlinburg, Tennessee, neighborhood.
Work continued Friday to put out a wildfire burning near the top of the Chimney Tops Trail in Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
Crews at Great Smoky Mountains National Park were to head out Thanksgiving Day morning to attack a small wildfire burning near the top of the Chimney Tops Trail. The fire covered about 1.5 acres when it was reported Wednesday night just beyond the summit of the trail.
Great Smoky Mountains National Park rangers are suggesting you take a break from spending on Black Friday and take a hike with them instead.
With wildfires burning in many places of the Southeast, and extremely warm and dry conditions in the forests, Great Smoky Mountains National Park has banned all campfires and use of fire grills in the park, while to the north in Shenandoah National Park fire restrictions have been put in place in the South District.
Solar Panel Seen As Sustainable Power Solution For Great Smoky Mountains National Park Communications
Sunshine is being viewed as a powerful solution for keeping communications online in the backcountry of Great Smoky Mountains National Park, where officials are considering the use of solar panels to generate electricity for communications equipment atop Mount Sterling in North Carolina.
Great Smoky Mountains National Park will host its 41st annual Festival of Christmas Past celebration at the Sugarlands Visitor Center on Saturday, December 10 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The free event is offered each year on the second Saturday of December.
Great Smoky Mountains National Park officials announced a temporary ban on campfires in the park’s backcountry effective immediately. Due to extremely dry weather conditions and the amount of fresh leaf litter on the ground, the potential for escaped fires to occur in the backcountry has dramatically increased. The fire restriction will be in effect until further notice.
Bridge repairs will require the temporary closure of roads within the Greenbrier section of Great Smoky Mountains National Park during the month of November. The Ramsey Prong Road will be closed from the turnoff to the trailhead on Tuesday, November 1, through Monday, November 14, to allow repairs on two bridges.

Currently, one case is a staff member and the other is a student; both are in the Learning for Independence (LFI) Special Education program.

The second individual tested positive November 5 and school and Health Department staff worked together to determine appropriate next steps.
All identified close contacts of the two cases are in quarantine and several have been tested. Because this outbreak is currently limited to the LFI program, the rest of the school can remain open.
“School administration and staff at Robert Moton have been extremely cooperative throughout this process,” Ed Singer, Health Officer for Carroll County, said. “We expected to have some cases in the schools due to COVID-19 spread in the community. With all of the mitigation measures in place, we hope to limit the number of people impacted by spread within the schools. We will continue following these cases and others in the system to identify any linked cases and areas of concern.”
Officials said the Health Department reviewed procedures at Robert Moton and determined that they were following COVID-19 guidance in the classroom as much as possible.MORE NEWS: Civil Rights Lawyer Ben Crump Joins Lawsuit Against Baltimore City Public Schools

By: Jake Weesner - Codi Field Technician
Do you have a Codi Filler? Are you a member of our online customer portal?
Over the past year, the Service team here at Codi has spent a considerable amount of time putting together online resources for you, the Codi operators of the world! And let me tell you, it's only getting better! Whether you are looking for additional training, continued learning, or some heat of battle answers, we want to see you succeed! This blog post is in light of the most recent changes to the customer portal itself and the layout of specific pages. We have listened to your suggestions and needs, and are doing our best to try and hone in on what will make this the most efficient and user friendly resource for you and your team. Especially when it comes to the portal being smart phone friendly!
We are calling this update "Customer Portal v1.5" as we have kept a fair amount of the same feel and familiarity as the Customer Portal you have come to know in recent history. As of today, 8/19/2022, we now go full nelson on "Customer Portal v2.0" in hopes of releasing it some time closer to the end of the year, and I cannot wait for you to see what we are cooking up! It's gonna be so tight!
When you visit the Codi Manufacturing website, you'll notice at the top of the screen the dropdown toolbar labelled Customer Portal... hence, this conversation. If you are not already a member, and you click on any of the 4 options it will instantly take you to the signup page.
Creating an account - If you are a Codi customer, running Codi equipment, then you are in! There's no monthly fee or any other element of vetting system. We usually suggest that each operator has their own login credentials to be able to pull up various information, almost part of the onboarding process for operator training. I have definitely visited facilities that opt to have one login for the packaging team, and one for the maintenance crew, whatever makes sense to you, we're not gonnna judge.
Once you have entered your info and convince the portal you are not a robot by doing a stupid captcha thing, you will receive an email shortly after from the service team telling you that you have been approved. Clicking the link in that email will take you right back to the same signup page you were just on, however this go round, you will click the "Log In" option under the sign up button and will enter your email and the password that you chose upon signup. Boom! You're in! That same drop down menu that was not accessible is now at your disposal. All the training videos, walkthrough PDF's and resources. Let's start to dive into these different sections of the portal and talk about updates along with future expectations for you!
Training Videos - With videos ranging from how to set your pin height, to Op roller adjustment, the variety of POV view and closeups will get you squared away on multiple facets of your filler and seamer. With our recent move to a new facility in Littleton Colorado, we are in the midst of building a Sound proof video room, which will only improve the quality of these videos as the future unfolds. Over the coming months, keep an eye on this section of the customer portal, we have a lot of new and insightful videos scripted and ready to be filmed.
Training Guides - This is one of the bigger areas that has changed with this newest update to the portal. With the main focus on being more smart phone friendly, those of you that have been using the portal for some time now will notice instantly how different the layout is. The landing page now gives you the option to jump to specific areas of the filler and seamer to nail down the exact guide you are looking for. We have gone away from the long list of gallery photos, no more scrolling up and down to try and find the correct walkthrough. This change was the number one area where we heard your feedback, and made a step in the direction that was asked!
Can Damage Guide - This is the most exciting update to the customer portal! In the drop down toolbar you can access an interactive can damage troubleshooting guide that will give you a beautiful jumping off point to be able to diagnose what the culprit must be in the conversation of can damage. During a canning run, you may see some consistent markings or dents, or something showing itself every 75 cans or so. Whatever the consistency, all too often, it is tough to know where to make the adjustment in the heat of battle. It's Monday, you're 12 cases into the run and all of a sudden you're holding a can asking "what the hell is that?". This is where the can damage troubleshooting guide will set you down the path to success. Compare the ornery can you are holding to one of the cans on the screen. When you find the similar photo to what you are seeing on site, click on the can and you will be taken to a page that has links to walkthrough slideshows, an order of operations, and tips to get your seamer back running perfectly once again!
Resources - Being the most straight forward of the Customer portal options, the resources section is chalk full of PDF downloads! At the very top of the page you will find 8 documents labeled "Codi Operator's Handbook". These PDF's are ready to be downloaded, printed, and used by any operator on a day to day basis, or kept in a binder in the pack hall when they are needed. They contain things such as a CIP SOP, run paperwork, and a can damage cheat sheet. Any operator of a Codi filler will value greatly from this wealth of knowledge.
The Future - So, where exactly are we headed? As I spoke earlier, "Customer Portal v2.0" is in its early stages of design. We are going to be breaking away from the current format and making the Portal itself its own entity all together. An entire site dedicated to Codi equipment, training, and continued education for even the most experienced of operators. Our team of field techs have a solid idea of what information you want at your fingertips, we speak to all of you often and I have to say that it is joy to work through the packaging woes we all face. That being said, chime in on this post and let us know what you would like to see! Is there something in the portal that would be a game changer for you and your team? Is there a video you would like to see in regards to making an adjustment or dialing in? Is there an SOP you are curious of? Whatever the case may be, this is a golden opportunity for you to be heard.
As I said in the beginning, we would love nothing more than to offer each and every one of you the tools to succeed, more importantly the confidence to know how to manage your line, and the equipment you run. Independence is priceless in our field, let us know how we can get you and your team there! Packaging for life, forklift certified, that's what's up!

Reed: Trump Using His Pardon Power to Thwart Justice
WASHINGTON, DC – After President Donald Trump announced several new pardons, including for his former campaign chairman Paul Manafort, campaign operative Roger Stone, and Charles Kushner, the father of his son-in-law and White House aide, Jared Kushner, the following statement was issued by U.S. Senator Jack Reed (D-RI):
“These pardons are disgraceful and another example of President Trump’s ethical failings.
“Clearly, President Trump isn’t using his pardon authority here to correct injustice, he’s using it to thwart justice. He’s handing out legal free passes to members of his inner circle who aided or abetted him or have family connections. He has also pardoned several corrupt former Republican Congressman who he sees as allies.
“Nobody can stop Trump’s pardon parade at this point, but good people across the political spectrum can and should condemn it or he may sink even lower.
“Facts are stubborn things and not even a presidential pardon can change or wipe away the improprieties that have occurred.”

A winter camino... On Gran Canaria
After finding the summer heat insufferable on his first trip along the Camino de Santiago in Spain, Paddy Dillon decided to try a cooler alternative on Gran Canaria.
The Camino de Santiago through northern Spain is a remarkable and very popular trail. I followed it with two friends back in 1996, in the month of August, finding the heat unbearable. Naturally, I wondered if walking the trail in winter might be a better option, but photos hanging on the walls of bars in mountain villages showed immense snowdrifts, so it didn’t look like a winter camino was a good prospect.
While researching routes on Gran Canaria over the past few years, I was intrigued to come across a couple of rustic wooden signs reading ‘Camino de Santiago’, and I wondered what on earth they were doing so far off course, so far from mainland Spain. It turned out that a little-known pilgrim trail linked the church of St James (Santiago) in the mountain village of Tunte with the church of St James in the town of Gáldar, near the north coast. In the past few years the route has been extended so that it now runs almost coast-to-coast from Playa del Inglés to Gáldar, covering 64km (40 miles). It looked as though this might be my winter camino.
I found very little information about the route before arriving in Gran Canaria, but I heard that the route started at the tourist information office in the big, brash resort of Playa del Inglés. I asked them if they had any information, and they told me they’d never heard of the trail!
No matter, as it often befalls me to figure out routes on my own, for the benefit of others, so with little more than a vague line on a basic map I followed the road in the direction of the mountainous interior.
It was a surprise to find a ‘Camino’ sign beside the road, bearing familiar motifs such as a pilgrim with a long staff and a scallop shell emblem. It also informed me that the full name of the trail was the ‘Ruta Jacobea y los Volcanes’, or the ‘Way of St James and the Volcanoes’. I saw no other signs for the rest of the day, and it later occurred to me that the roadside sign was actually intended to warn motorists to look out for wayward wayfarers!
Leaving the road, the unmarked route follows a stony track through the Barranco de los Vicentes, which is flanked by steep slopes, cliffs and impenetrable scrub. Thankfully, there was eventually an easy exit, linking with a winding, dusty dirt road that dropped to the little village of Ayagaures. There’s a bar, but no bus or taxi, and the only hope of finding accommodation seems to rest with Airbnb.
I was familiar with the next stage of the route, which involves following a well-signposted trail past two reservoirs, climbing steadily into the forest of Pinar de Pilancones. A spray-painted yellow arrow and scallop shell emblem reminded me of the way the Camino de Santiago is marked through northern Spain, but apart from that I noticed only standard signposting as I crossed the gap of Degollada de la Manzanilla and followed a crumbling old mountain path downhill. The village of Tunte, also known as San Bartolomé de Tirajana, offered a full range of services, including accommodation. The church, rather oddly, isn’t dedicated to San Bartolomé, but to St James, where a statue shows him in his traditional ‘Matamoros’, or Moor-slaying pose, which is familiar to pilgrims.
Following a winding, forested path uphill from the village leads to a road at Cruz Grande. I can never tire of the amazing, winding, stone-paved path that climbs from there into the mountains.
The way ahead appears blocked by tier upon tier of cliffs, yet the path twists and turns, exploiting breaches and passing beneath fearsome overhanging rock to gain height with relative ease. The views are remarkable and extensive. Little wayside crosses are passed and wooden plank signs are carved with ‘Camino de Santiago’ from time to time.
The higher parts of Gran Canaria feature fairly gentle slopes, forested and open areas, served by good paths and tracks. There are no villages, but every so often an isolated house or farm is passed. The trail runs roughly parallel to a high-level road, passing through an area that suffered a bad fire recently. A gap is reached at Cruz de Tejeda, where there is a choice of a simple hotel or an expensive Parador hotel. The simple Hotel Rural El Refugio sells ‘Camino’ merchandise at its reception desk.
The fourth and final day’s walk to Gáldar is a little longer than the previous three, but the terrain is easier. Start by climbing across the slopes of Monte Constantino and Morisco, enjoying splendid views. Instead of heading for the popular mountain village of Artenara, descend towards the viewpoint of Pinar de Gáldar, overlooking a crater filled with dark volcanic ash, surrounded by pine forest.
Throughout the descent through the forest, stop at intervals to tip ash out of shoes or boots, then emerge among a huddle of little grassy hills, heading for a road. You never know what the weather will be like in these parts. It could be sunny, or it could be shrouded in damp mist. Either way, the road-walking is easy and there are occasional markers for the pilgrim trail. This part of the trail passes a few farming hamlets and little villages, such as Saucillo, Tegueste and Hoya de Pineda, where a couple of breaks might be made at roadside bars.
The final stage involves a rugged descent, followed by a network of dirt roads beyond Anzofe through what I can only describe as a post-agricultural wasteland. The town of Gáldar, huddled around the foot of a volcano, has many points of interest, and the former church dedicated to St James is now a museum. Another museum incorporates the Cueva Pintada, or Painted Cave, exploring the pre-Conquest history of Gran Canaria’s inhabitants.
Gran Canaria’s winter camino could easily fit into a week-long break, as the walking can be completed in four days, and it only takes a day to fly to the island and a day to get home afterwards.

Yahoo reported its first quarter financials this week, at the same time the company is considering offers from organizations that want to buy the struggling online giant.
The company reported a net loss of $99 million, a significant drop since this time last year when it reported net earnings of $21 million. However, Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer put a positive spin on the first quarter results, saying they were in line with expectations.
“Our 2016 plan is off to a solid start as we continue to focus on driving efficiency, lowering costs, and improving long-term growth," she said. "In tandem, we made substantial progress towards potential strategic alternatives for Yahoo. Our board, our management team, and I are completely aligned on this top priority for shareholders."
This last comment may have been made to quell concerns that Yahoo is not serious about selling its business, which the Wall Street Journal says has an estimated worth of $4 billion and $5 billion, according to its interview with Cantor Fitzgerald analyst Youssef Squali.
“There is a fair amount of skepticism about their willingness to really sell the business,” Squali told the WSJ.
Nonetheless, Yahoo in March sent letters to buyers asking for proposals, and it has reportedly received several.
Verizon is considered to be the leading candidate, according to Reuters. The communications service provider bought another online giant, AOL, last summer for $4.4 billion. Others in the running include Daily Mail, a U.K. media company; TPG, a buyout firm; and an investor group including Bain Capital, Vista Equity Partners, and former Yahoo CEO Ross Levinsohn, according to the WSJ. Advent International and Silver Lake have also reportedly expressed interest in bidding. A Mobile World Live report indicated that private equity firms Apax Partners, Apollo Global Management, and Warburg Pincus also submitted bids in the first round.
According to the WSJ, Yahoo will want to move toward a resolution on all of this in time for its summer shareholder meeting.

A man convicted of killing a Oklahoma Sheriff's Deputy has been arrested by Boone Police on child pornography charges.
On Wednesday August 23rd, 2017, the Boone Police Department, Watauga County Sheriff’s Office and State Bureau of Investigation concluded an investigation of Thomas Arthur Rittenhouse, 73-years-old, of Bamboo Road in Boone, for the Possession and Distribution of Child Pornography. Rittenhouse is charged with six counts of 2nd Degree Sexual Exploitation of a Minor, his court date is set for October 17th, 2017 and his conditions of release were set as a $75,000 secured bond.
The Boone Police Department, Watauga County Sheriff’s Office and North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation are members of the North Carolina Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force, which is continually engaged in proactive and reactive investigations and prosecutions of persons involved in child abuse and exploitation of children involving the internet.
According to Boone Police and the Oklahoma Law Enforcement Memorial webpage, Thomas Arthur Rittenhouse murdered a Pottawatomie County Sheriff’s Office Deputy by the name of Odos Neal Smith, on Sunday, February 3rd, 1963 in Oklahoma. The Oklahoma Law Enforcement Memorial webpage details the following:
“On the evening of Sunday, February 3, 1963, a McLoud constable arrested Thomas Arthur Rittenhouse who had been hitchhiking carrying a 30-30 Winchester rifle. When the constable learned Rittenhouse was AWOL from an Air Force Base in Kansas, he arrested him. The constable contacted Deputy Smith at his home to assist him in transporting Rittenhouse to the County Jail. Shortly after 10 P.M. the constable was driving to Shawnee with the deputy and prisoner in the back seat. Both officers had not noticed a .25 automatic pistol Rittenhouse was carrying in a shoulder holster and his hands were handcuffed in front of him. One mile east of Dale on Highway 270, Rittenhouse drew the weapon and shot Deputy Smith four times in the chest, leg and shoulders. The constable then wrecked the vehicle and the suspect jumped out. The wounded deputy got out of the wrecked police car and tried to pursue the suspect but collapsed in the roadway. A passing vehicle struck the deputy in the highway and dragged his body 30 feet before stopping. Rittenhouse surrendered to the constable at the scene. Deputy Sheriff Smith was survived by his wife.”

Florida Gov. Rick Scott (R) told MSNBC that he hasn’t seen a controversial Arizona bill that would allow businesses to discriminate against LGBT customers on the basis of religious belief.
In an interview with host Chuck Todd on Wednesday Scott was repeatedly asked whether he thought Brewer should sign the bill. Other Republicans have said she shouldn’t. Each time he was asked, Scott refused to answer saying he hadn’t seen the legislation.
“Chuck, I’ve not seen that bill,” Scott said in response to a question from MSNBC’s Chuck Todd on the bill.
The bill has been a primary topic in politics this week as Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer (R) mulls whether to veto it or not. She plans to make her decision by Friday. A number of prominent Arizona businesses have also called on Brewer to veto the bill.
Todd asked if Brewer “signed a bill like this that made it as if a lot of businesses would feel as if they might want to do business in Arizona, you would, as governor [of] Florida, would you raid those spring training teams?”
“Well, look, I go after the spring training teams. I’m competing with governors across the country to bring more jobs to Florida,” Scott responded. “Then again, Chuck, I haven’t seen the bill. I want all of the spring training teams to be back here, first day of spring training today.”
When Todd rephrased the question Scott’s answer was the same.
“Do you think religious — do you think a bill like that, religious beliefs, should be used as a basis of denying services to a gay couple?” Todd asked.
“I haven’t seen the bill, but I can tell you I’m trying to recruit companies every day to our state,” Scott said.
In a statement to TPM, former Gov. Charlie Crist (D), Scott’s likely opponent in the general election, slammed Scott for not taking a position:
Discrimination has no place in America. None in Arizona. None in Florida. For Governor Brewer, this should be the ultimate no-brainer. Veto the law.
Moreover, the fact that Governor Scott won’t take a stand on whether Governor Brewer should veto the Arizona discrimination law is stunning. We should always be sending the message that Florida is open for all of our residents, open for all tourists and open for all businesses.

Here are the basics needed for growing your own seeds:
Soil – Start with sterile materials, including the soil. Use a soil mix for starting seeds. It will be finer and without fertilizer. We carry 8 qt and 16 qt bags of starter soil, as well as peat pellets (which are a lot of fun to watch “grow”). As the seedlings grow, you will transplant them into a coarser potting soil with fertilizer until it is time to plant them in the garden.
Moisture – Once a seed is moistened, it must stay moist until the seedling has emerged from the soil. If the seed is allowed to dry out during this time, it usually kills the seed. Covering the seed with soil also helps but only with large seeds (tiny seeds should not be covered). Some people mist the soil several times a day or the tray can be covered with plastic wrap. Whatever method you use, be ready to uncover or slow down on the misting as soon as the first leaf emerges from the soil. As the seedlings grow, the moisture level should decrease gradually to the point that, once the seedling is transplanted and established in it’s new pot or pack, it should actually wilt between waterings.
Heat – Most seeds need to be germinated at 70 – 75 degrees. The top of a refrigerator or other appliance may be the perfect place. If this temperature is not available, some seeds grow slower and some may not germinate at all. Decrease the temperature a few degrees once the seed is up. When hardening off the seedlings, even cooler temperatures will be necessary.
Timing – The one mistake most growers make is starting seeds too early. Count backwards from the date you plan to plant outside to the number of weeks the seed package says it will take. Take notes so you can make adjustments from year to year.
Growing the seedlings on – Bright sunlight, cooler temperatures, and drying between waterings are three necessary factors in growing healthy seedlings. Once transplanted, you will continue with the bright light and allow the soil to dry even more between waterings. When outside temperatures are warm enough, set the seedlings outside (in the shade and out of wind) for a few hours at a time. After a few days of this, increase the light and wind exposure until they are used to the same conditions that they will have once planted in the ground. This process is called hardening off or conditioning.
We carry all the supplies necessary for starting your own seedlings and many are available on this website.
At Longfellow’s, we are experts in growing seedlings – it’s what we do. Let us know if we can help you. Custom growing services are also available.

Two men from out of town became guests of the Vernon RCMP after they allegedly tried to rob a city gas station Tuesday.
The employee at Quality Chevron Service, in the 3300 block of 32nd Street, called RCMP just after 9 p.m. to report that a man had attempted to rob him.
“The suspect demanded money, and the employee told the male suspect that he had called the police,” said Vernon RCMP spokesperson Gord Molendyk. “The suspect ran off and an accomplice was seen running with him.”
A short time later, a City of Vernon bylaw officer located the two suspects near 33rd Street and 39th Avenue in possession of a stolen truck out of Kamloops.
The bylaw officer followed the truck from that location to 27th Street and 35th Avenue, where police officers were able to stop the vehicle. The two men with the truck were arrested for robbery and possession of stolen property.
“One male was identified with the assistance of Kamloops RCMP,” said Molendyk, adding that police were able to view the video from the Chevron showing one of the men during the robbery and holding a weapon.
The men, aged 24 and 22, are from Kamloops and Merritt respectively.
Both were taken into custody and were to appear in Vernon Provincial Court Wednesday to face charges of armed robbery and possession of a stolen property.
Both subjects, said Molendyk, are well-known to police.
