FFA students demonstrate their knowledge of soils in state competition
By GEOFF PARKS
For the Capital Press
Thirty-four teams of four FFA students each from across the state recently took part in the Oregon FFA State Soils Contest.
Oregon high schools as far-flung as North Lake High School in Christmas Valley, Sutherlin High School, Bonanza High School, Henley High School of Klamath Falls, Hermiston High School and others took part in the morning-long competition at Norbert Hartmann's 300-acre farm west of Monmouth on Nov. 7.
"Kids learn how to judge soils based on their projects with the soil and water conservation districts and the FFA," Lee Letsch of the Oregon FFA Association said of the event.
"The coolest part of this is judging each soil site and seeing how different they are, even though all of the sites are within a quarter-mile of each other," said Tim Ray, Dallas FFA adviser. He explained that soils can have colors ranging from dark brown to reddish to gray, which indicates its composition and manner of buildup.
"Darker colors are usually more fertile soils, reddish soils are usually forest soils and gray indicates a waterlogged soil," he said. "What soil judging teaches is soil management, the practical applications of what these kids learn in high school."
Armed with Interpretation Guides for Oregon Soil Judging, the students stepped into a 6-foot-deep gouge in the earth just below an Oregon white oak savannah that Hartmann is creating on his land. They each checked the exposed soil for permeability, "stoniness/rockiness," spotted or smeared soil colors and other soil characteristics of the contest's "practice site."
Their findings were then checked based on completed scorecards from three Natural Resources Conservation Service soil scientists to "calibrate" the students' observational skills, said one of the judges, Cory Owens, an NRCS field scientist from Tangent.
The other judges were Owens' soil-scientist colleagues in Salem, Dave Johnson and Brandi Baird.
After calibration by the judges, the students moved on to three other test horizons spaced around Hartmann's diverse acreage and filled out observational scorecards for each. Their cards then were scored by the three judges and given a grand total.
Freshman Raven Waldron of North Lake High School and Christmas Valley's "B" team scored the most points on her three-horizon scorecard and was judged the individual winner of the contest.
North Lake's "A" team took top spot in the team competition, as second-place individual winner Daniel Miles and his colleagues on the team -- Avery Overton (third individual), Joe Carlon (sixth individual) and Cody Worthington (eighth individual) -- overwhelmed the other schools.
"This is the first year that the overall winner of the contest was given a prize," said Sue Reams, a soil conservationist with the Salem NRCS service center. "(Waldron) was offered a summer internship position with the NRCS."

IPL’s 41st match is between CSK and SRH in Chennai today. CSK is closer to entering the playoffs with 14 points and SRH is currently in the fourth position of the IPL points table with 10 points. Both the teams that are trying hard to get into the playoffs are strong and motivated enough to fight to the death for a victory which makes today’s match more than interesting.
Both CSK and SRH are strong teams that have a chance to get into the playoffs. CSK has established its dominance over the other teams but failed to dominate SRH in the previous matched it had played against it. CSK had won 7 matches among the 10 it had played while SRH had won 5 matches among the 9. CSK’s Today’s match against SRH is its 11th match and it is of great significance as a victory in this match could make CSK qualified for the Playoffs. SRH is presently in competition with MI, a victory in this match equates its points with that of MI and increases the chances of entering the playoffs.
Since SRH had won its previous game against CSK, the team might make an effort to repeat the performance again. In the previous match, SRH has managed to restrict CSK to a total of 132 runs and chased it in just 16.5 overs with 6 wickets still in hand.
CSK had experienced consecutive defeats in two matches which
might have damaged its morale. On the other hand, the defeats might become a
stronger motivator to win in today’s match. Given the team’s past performances
a strong bounce back can be expected from the CSK team. As both the teams are
equally strong and motivated, today’s match might be a blasting entertainer for

When one labels the word “indie” or “alternative” on to a particular type of music that is not “commercial”, most non-musical devotees pigeon hole the music that many of us love. Here is an example of 5 audio and video cuts that go to prove that these labels are absolutely diverse.
- Artist: SHAMIR
- Cut: 90s Kid’s
- Label: Father/Daughter Records
- Field: Las Vegas, USA
- Flocks: Alt-Pop
- Flavours Of: Perfume Genius, Tei Shi
Shamir quickly grabbed the cool kids attention in 2015 with his debut delivery, Rachet. A debut full of hope, fun and an underlying message of being true to one self. Still only 22 years of age, Shamir has matured remarkably with this cut, a strong, raw and emotional side of the artist, who could well be the voice of a generation.
- Artist: BJORK
- Cut: The Gate
- Label: One Little Indian
- Field: Reykjavik, Iceland
- Flocks: Electronic, Avante Garde Pop
- Flavours Of: Brian Eno, Isan
The long anticipated return cut from Bjork has us captivated with her unique but expected answer to an emotional love song. In comparison to the sounds and production of her previous album Vulnicura, this is Bjork at her most gentle but still delivering a commanding listening of oscillating sounds that are most appreciated on headphones.
- Artist: Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
- Cut: Little Thing Gone Wild
- Label: Abstract Dragon / Vagrant
- Field: San Fransisco, USA
- Flocks: Scuzzy Rock, Alt Rock
- Flavours Of: The Duke Spirit, Band of Skulls, The Black Angels
In 2001, BRMC delivered one of the best albums of the decade, it was raw, gritty and epitomised what it was to create uber-cool rock n roll. Seven albums later, the band still edge on the peripheral of gaining the attention they deserve. “Little Thing Gone Wild” is another typical cut from BRMC, a safe return but full of all the gritty goodness that true fans will revel in. There soon to be delivered album Wrong Creatures was produced by Nick Launay who also worked with Nick Cave and Arcade Fire.
- Artist: Julien Baker
- Cut: Appointments
- Label: Matador
- Field: Tennessee, USA
- Flocks: Melodic Pop, Singer/Songwriter
- Flavours Of: SOAK, Mothers, Camp Cope
At 22 years of age Julien Baker is one of the few American writers who is able to keep production minimal and use the power of her lyrics and voice to engage and immerse her listeners. The fragility of her voice gives goose-bump, her honesty, frighteningly real, Baker goes from strength to strength in creating a world that is delicate and strangely hopeful. A beautiful accompanying video clip.
- Artist: The Lemon Twigs
- Cut: Why Didn’t You Say That?
- Label: 4AD
- Field: Long Island, USA
- Flocks: Indie Pop, 60’s inspired
- Flavours Of: Foxygen, Beirut, Ultimate Painting
Brothers Brian & Michael D’Addario write shameless 60s inspired jingles that are as catchy as a Melbourne cold. With shuffling drums, sticky harmonies, rolling basslines and ruthless jangling guitars, the brothers create a joyous 3 minute rumble as we anticipate their soon to be delivered EP Brothers of Destruction.

The file size for the PlayStation 4 version of Wolfenstein: The Old Blood has been listed.
Pretty big for a DLC
It's a standalone getting a digital and retail release
I just found that out
Glad I'm waiting for the disc.
If you're waiting for the disc on either next gen system (XB1 or PS4), you do know that the game will take up that amount of space whether you get it digitally or retail? Both next gen systems install entire games from disc to HDD, so digital vs. retail is no difference there. If you're talking about having to download a huge chunk of data vs. installing from disc, then you have a good point.
Too bad internal storage capacity wasn't larger out of the box :(
@ marloc_x - I assume you're talking about the Wii U, with its pitiful little 8gb or 32gb of RAM? LOL, don't try to point out small internal storage when the Wii U takes the cake in that respect, its just another of its many shortcomings. Shame they didn't do a better job on the design of that system, eh? :/
That doesn't matter, its still going to install...
I didn't think they were planning a disc version in the US. Thought it was digital only ...
TNO took up about 50 gigs so it seems they don't compress much. Apparently this is about half the length of TNO in terms of # of missions, which would be pretty great value. Definitely a no brainer to pick this up. A nice distraction leading up to The Witcher :D
I'm confused is this a stand alone game or dlc for the game that was released not to long ago
It's a stand alone, should have a platinum, etc.
It's standalone, to be clear. ...This is why I'm getting the disc sent from the U.K. So lame it isn't going to be available in the U.S.
From my understanding only the X1 with not have a disc version. I could be wrong thou
Yea revealing file size is news nowadays apperently
This game is going to be awesome on PC.
I wonder if the people disagreeing with you think the game will be crap in general, or JUST on PC ...
I'm so psyched for this game! The new order was such a blast!
Great, cant wait. I will play & finish the game like i did the New Order & sell it on. I don't care how much space it takes...
Already played it.. Play a game and delete it when you're done playing it... That's how you make sure your HDD doesn't get filled up. I mean you can only play one game at a time anyway.. It's kind pointless to be playing multiple games at the same time in my opinion, unless you have a MP "go to game" that you play. But playing a bunch of Single Player games at the same time gets so confusing. Play a game and finish and then move onto the next... No sense keeping the install on the HDD... that's why there is the Online Storage for Save Data.... that's all that matters.
I meant to say I already Pre-Ordered it.. but yeah after I'm done playing it and getting all the trophies I will delete it and move on to another game.

Charlotte Stephenson, Norman Richardson Award recipient
Thu 20th June 2019 at 12.30 - 14.00
Charlotte survives a trip to Honduras (and lunch with Durham Rotary)
Charlotte Stephenson received a Norman Richardson award two years ago and this enabled her go on a two week adventure to Honduras. She attended our meeting accompanied by her grandparents and gave us an interesting presentation.
Charlotte told us how she gathered data regarding forest ecology in the Cusco National Park while living in very basic accomodation in the forest. More data gathering in coral reefs in the Caribbean followed.
Altogether, the experience took her out of her comfort zone and helped her gain confidence which she will carry forward into the next phase of her life at university.


Backstage Academy has been recognised for its regional service across education and the live events sector after it claimed top spot for three categories at this year’s virtual Educate North Awards.
The annual Awards celebrate the outstanding achievements of further and higher education institutions across the region, recognising best practice and excellence in the educational sector.
Offering degrees, short courses and bespoke training in the live events industry, the South-Kirby-based institution achieved recognition from judges across three categories: the Student Experience Award, the Employer Engagement Award and Entrepreneur of the Year Award for the Academy’s Chairman and Founder, Adrian Brooks.
Rachel Nicholson, the head of institution, says the clutch of award wins will further bolster Backstage Academy’s trophy cabinet, as it sets its sights on full University accreditation over the next few years.
“This is a fantastic reflection of the hard work and passion from our students, staff and partners at Backstage Academy, which I think we can all be really proud of,” Nicholson said. “It is also particularly pleasing that the Founder of Backstage Academy, Adrian Brooks, was awarded Entrepreneur of the Year in recognition of his contribution to the future growth of the sector.”
Backstage Academy was recognised by the judging panel for the Student Experience Award for putting students at the heart of their institution, whilst the Employer Engagement Award recognised the institution’s excellence in engaging with employers and industry professionals.
The judges celebrated the Academy’s outstanding educational value, student experience and its focus on arming students with the skills to excel in the industry.
“From industry-partner masterclasses to hands on use of cutting-edge equipment, software and technology, our students experience real-life industry opportunities and experiences with world-leading companies day-in day-out,” Nicholson stated. “We’re proud that our students get to experience working with industry specialists, experiment with pioneering products, and gain dream opportunities before becoming live events professionals themselves.”
Nicholson added: “The judging panel identified our work opportunities programme as a particular driver of our students’ experience. By shaping the degree programmes with a substantial emphasis on student experience and employability, our students enter the world of work with a network of industry contacts, an impressive portfolio of work experience, and a passion for their craft. We’re also delighted that our Chairman & Founder, Adrian Brooks, was recognised for his drive, passion and unwavering commitment to the live events industry and education of its future generations.”
Nicholson concluded: “The judging panel recognised Adrian’s vision; from starting out as a bingo caller and road sweeper, to setting up an innovative, world-leading aluminium scaffolding business, Litestructures. It was then that Adrian recognised the need for investment in live events education before he launched the academy in 2009. We are honoured to have been in the running against some of the best education providers across the North. From our humble beginnings, it is a testament to the passion and love of live events from our students and staff that has made these awards possible.”
On his award win, Adrian Brooks said: “I’m thrilled for the recognition, but more than that, I am grateful to the team who have worked around me over the last 12 to 14 years to develop Backstage Academy into what it is today.”

APROPOS Dawn’s editorial on the ‘Babari mosque verdict’ (Nov 10). The last mask from secular India’s face has fallen down, unveiling the ugly face of justice.
The last nail has been hammered in the secular coffin of India by its apex court. Such a decision was expected keeping in view the trail of incidents during the last few months in India-occupied Kashmir. It is undoubtedly a travesty of justice that a land where a mosque stood built for hundreds of years was not only desecrated and demolished but its land has now been granted to a group professing Hindutvas. Those who portray India as the world’s largest democracy must hang their heads in shame.
Democracy is what has been demonstrated at Kartarpur by giving a red carpet welcome to the Sikh community from all over the world. Yet, Muslims are the sole target of extremism in India. Marginalising an oppressed and suppressed minority is terrorism. The world must pay heed to this issue. Menial jobs are offered to them and they are treated as second-class citizens. Now the Supreme Court has given verdict against their place of worship.
They are left with no forum to complain for their rights. However, there is a law of nature which acts when tyranny exceeds its limits.

Eskom in KwaZulu-Natal is stepping up its efforts to remind qualifying indigent households to claim their benefit of limited free electricity, as provided by the government's Free Basic Electricity (FBE) programme.
The FBE is a longstanding initiative that forms part of government's policy of providing support to the unemployed, low-earning, the destitute and the elderly.
FBE is implemented by Eskom and municipalities through providing a maximum of 50 or 60 kiloWatt hours (kWh) per month of free electricity to support qualifying low income households.
This is an amount of electricity that is considered enough to run basic lighting, provide basic media access, basic ironing, and to boil water using an electric kettle.
General Manager for Eskom in KwaZulu-Natal, Agnes Mlabo, said raising awareness of FBE will help alleviate the impact of the COVID-19 national lockdown on indigent households.
"As Eskom we have come to realise that an unfortunately large number of our indigent households do not exercise their right to claim this benefit which could help cushion the impact of the COVID-19 national lockdown. This is because they are either unaware of the free basic electricity or because they have not registered for it with their municipalities," Mlambo said in a statement on Monday.
Mlambo encouraged low income households to approach their municipalities to register as indigent, in order to collect their allocated free basic electricity every month.
"Customers who qualify for FBE but who are not currently collecting it, must approach their municipalities and register to receive their free allocation. Once registered with the municipality, the customer's details are loaded on the Eskom system where they get credited with free electricity tokens every month," Mlambo explained.
She also emphasised that the free token must be used for the month on which it is issued, as it expires.
Mlambo added that when the free token has been used up, you will then need to buy additional units.
Eskom supplied customers who wish to ascertain whether they qualify for the FBE benefit can visit their municipal office for more information, or ask their ward councillor or Community Development Worker (CDW). They can also contact Eskom on 0860 037 566.

Women with epilepsy (WWE) face challenges throughout their reproductive life that place them and their unborn offspring at risk of adverse events. It is important to choose an antiepileptic drug (AED) that can control seizures, does not interfere with contraception, and is favorable for childhood outcomes. Pregnant women need folic acid, prenatal vitamins, frequent medication management, and careful obstetrical monitoring. Postpartum WWE should be monitored for postpartum depression and counseled about seizures from sleep deprivation. With the proper counseling and attentive care, WWE can maintain seizure control and deliver healthy babies.

Gran Canaria is a major setting for the British-funded movie and filming is scheduled over two months.
The Titan is set in the future in a world short of food and on the brink of war and is about a military family's journey to a NATO base to take part in a ground-breaking experiment about genetic evolution in space. Writer Arash Amel has described it as, “at its core, a love story that is set in the pioneering edge of space exploration, a world of fear and wonder”.
The film's Gran Canaria budget hasn't been announced, bu the Gran Canaria Film Commission is understandably excited. The Cabildo's Consejero de Desarrollo Económico del Cabildo de Gran Canaria, Raúl García Brink, said that it would "improve Gran Canaria's competitiveness and positioning as a location for large-scale film productions".

For it's 10th anniversary, ARTFARM artistic director Marcella Trowbridge, of Middletown-based theater group, wanted to do something a little different. Instead of creating a traditional Shakespearian play for the annual performances, she began with a theme.
Actors explore one central question: "Why is Shakespeare so special?" A professor, an actor, a producer and an audience member (groundling) all argue their answer in a 90-minute outdoor show in the scenic field behind Middlesex Community College.
To prove their point, each person performs scenes, songs and soliloquies from over a dozen Shakespeare plays, including "Hamlet," "A Midsummer Night's Dream," "Measure For Measure," "Macbeth" and "Julius Caesar."
"Shakespeare's Argument" performers are Trowbridge, Annie DiMartino, Ken O'Brien and Jesse Gabbard with a musical score performed live by the ARTFARM Orchestra under the baton of Joseph Getter.
The show runs tonight through Sunday and July 21-24 at 7 p.m. on the campus of Middlesex Community College on Training Hill Road. If raining, shows are moved inside. Donation is $20.
Live musicians begin at 6 p.m.

Margaret Harris, a theatrical designer whose name was synonymous for more than half a century with superlative yet economical stage sets and costumes in London, Stratford-Upon-Avon and on Broadway, died on Wednesday in London. She was 95.
In 1931, with encouragement from John Gielgud, Ms. Harris and two female collaborators founded the firm Motley -- the name came from the line ''Motley's the only wear'' in ''As You Like It'' -- and gradually established themselves as masters of design for some 300 productions ranging from Shakespeare and the classics to big-budget Broadway musicals and popular Hollywood fare.
Their hallmark was simplicity, a reaction against the visual extravagance that dominated the theater in the 1920's and 30's.
Michael Mullin, an professor of English at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and the author of ''Design by Motley'' (University of Delaware Press, 1996), said, ''Although well known in the profession, Motley was not widely recognized by the public because men dominated set and costume design, and because the public was more interested in actors and directors than designers, yet their influence was broad and pervasive.''
One critic praised Motley's work, saying, ''They create among them a clear-cut atmosphere of beauty and clear design.''
Ms. Harris and her partners -- her older sister, Audrey, and Elizabeth Montgomery -- worked so closely together that their creations were inseparable to most observers though, in fact, Margaret Harris specialized in set design.
Part of the group's success was due to economizing. When Motley designed Shylock's costume, it was made of dishrags. The effect was what counted.
Margaret Frances Harris was born on May 28, 1904, in Kent, England. She and her collaborators first expressed their interest in the theater by peddling sketches of popular actors outside the theaters where they appeared. They especially admired Gielgud's Shakespearean productions at the Old Vic, and one day showed him drawings that they had made for the sets and costumes of his ''Richard II,'' ''Macbeth'' and ''King Lear.'' Intrigued, Gielgud visited the Harrises at their Kensington home.
In 1932, when Gielgud was invited to direct ''Romeo and Juliet'' for the Oxford University Dramatic Society, Motley did its first costume-design work for him.
Gielgud's praise was unrestrained, and Motley's next work for him was his ''Merchant of Venice'' for the Old Vic in 1932.
Then came Gielgud's ''Hamlet,'' with costumes inspired by Cranach paintings and sprayed with autumnal colors.
Motley also traveled to the United States, working on Broadway and in Hollywood for productions like the movie version of ''Oklahoma!''

Spaghetti and meatballs is one of my favorite things to make because I find them fun and I love eating them. This is my go-to order when I try a new Italian restaurant because I believe great chefs know how to make this properly. Just like when I try a new pizza joint, I tend to order a pepperoni pizza pie because that’s the best way to judge a pizza. Everyone has a different style on how to make this and how to make the sauce. I learned how to make meatballs one summer when I was at the Jersey shore the Italian biker guy who lived next door came over and taught me. I think the secret ingredient is the parmesan cheese in the balls.
One of my favorite movies of all time is Goodfellas. In the movie, Paulie uses a razor to slice the garlic super thin. If you try that, please let me know how it works. My preference would be to use garlic-infused olive oil. I think the garlic chunks adds a lot of flavor. Be sure to try this with my simple 4 ingredient tomato sauce recipe.
Are Italian Style Meatballs Made With Pork and Beef?
No. I’m not a fan of pork, and I learned to make Italian meatballs from a full-blooded Italian with just beef.
Other ways to use this meatball recipe

Classic Meatball Sandwich
Italian Style Meatballs
Pasta covered with tomato sauce and meatballs served in Italian Restaurants all across the United states is actually an American cuisine. In Italy they serve Ragù.
- Prep Time: 15 Minutes
- Cook Time: 10 Minutes
- Total Time: 25 minutes
- Yield: 4 Servings 1x
- Category: Dinner
- Method: Pan
- Cuisine: Italian
- 2 Tablespoon Olive Oil
- 2 Garlic Cloves diced
- 1 Egg
- 1 pound Lean Ground Beef
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese
- 1/2 cup Italian Style Breadcrumbs
- Garlic Powder
- Onion Powder
- Beat Egg
- Add Ground Beef, Breadcrumbs, and Parmesan
- Mix those four ingredients
- Heat Pan (medium heat)
- Add Garlic (don’t let it burn)
- Start adding Meatballs right away
- Sprinkle spices over Meatballs
- Brown on all sides should take about 10 minutes.
I like to put the meatballs in a dutch oven with heated tomato sauce and then start heating the boiling water for the spaghetti. This lets the sauce flavor the meatballs.

DARK NEW DAY/ex-SEVENDUST guitarist Clint Lowery, who has spent most of this year fulfilling his touring duties with KORN, has been forced to leave KORN's current "Bi#%h! We Have A Problem" tour "due to a family emergency." "Everything's fine — just had to get home," Lowery writes on his MySpace page. "Hated to leave. Love all the KORN guys and had a blast with them."
According to a posting on the KORN fan site Kornspace, Lowery has been replaced on the trek by Shane Gibson, who was also been tapped by KORN frontman Jonathan Davis to accompany him on his upcoming solo acoustic tour.
KORN's video for the song "Hold On" has been released and can be viewed below.
Jonathan Davis told The Pulse of Radio that "Hold On" is an especially personal track for him and was one of several inspired by the blood infection that nearly killed him last year. "'Hold On''s another one about the blood thing," he said. "It was like a song of empowerment. It's for people out there dealing with any kind of disease or fucked-up relationship or anything. It's about just hanging in there. I wanted to write a song that people could listen to it and it would give 'em hope."
KORN's latest album arrived on July 31 and debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard album chart.

#Khabarlive attempts to remember those Telangana forgotten warriors whos sacrifices makes a way to get the srparate Telangana state.
The Telangana statehood agitation was a long and protracted struggle that lasted for over a decade. The movement was spearheaded by a number of individuals and organizations, who made great sacrifices in the pursuit of their goal.
Some of the most prominent Telangana statehood heroes include:
- K. Chandrashekar Rao, the founder of the Telangana Rashtra Samithi now Bharatiya Rashtra Samithi (BRS) party and the first Chief Minister of Telangana.
- M. Kodandaram, the founder of the Telangana Joint Action Committee (JAC) and a leading figure in the statehood movement.
- Alluri Sitarama Raju, a revolutionary who fought against the British Raj and is considered a hero by many Telangana people.
- Komaram Bheem, a tribal leader who fought against the Nizam of Hyderabad and is considered a hero by many Telangana people.
- Potti Sriramulu, a freedom fighter who died in protest against the delay in granting statehood to Telangana.
- Mallu Swarajyam: Mallu Swarajyam was a freedom fighter and social reformer from Telangana. She actively participated in the Indian independence movement and fought against social evils such as child marriage and untouchability..
- Manda Krishna Madiga: Manda Krishna Madiga is a prominent Dalit activist and leader in Telangana. He has been actively involved in advocating for the rights and welfare of the marginalized sections of society, particularly the Madiga community.
These are just a few of the many people who made significant contributions to the Telangana statehood movement. Their sacrifices and dedication helped to make Telangana a reality, and they will be remembered for their contributions to the state.
In addition to the individuals mentioned above, there are many other people who played important roles in the Telangana statehood movement. These include:
- Students, who were at the forefront of the protests and demonstrations.
- Trade unions, which provided support and resources to the movement.
- Political parties, both regional and national, which lent their support to the cause of Telangana statehood.
- The media, which played a vital role in raising awareness of the issue and putting pressure on the government to act.
The most heroic youngsters are – Dasoju Srikantha Chary and K. Venugopal Reddy and police constable Kishtaiah, who died by suicide for the cause of a separate Telangana, are credited with igniting the second phase of the Telangana statehood agitation in 2009.
The movement, spearheaded by TRS president K. Chandrashekar Rao, intensified after the suicides and pushed the Centre into granting statehood to Telangana by bifurcating the then-united Andhra Pradesh.
As many as 369 activists laid down their lives in the first phase of the Telangana statehood agitation in 1969 and about 1,200 activists sacrificed their lives between 2001 and 2014. Most of the dead were youths and students, who sacrificed their education, careers and lives, whenever the agitation hit a low.
The movement for a separate Telangana was triggered on January 6, 1969, near Khammam railway station, with an indefinite hunger strike by one Ravindranath, who was protesting against the alleged illegal recruitment of non-local youths into the National Thermal Project at Palvoncha. It intensified with students coming onto the roads demanding that the state government implement the Gentlemen’s Agreement with regard to sharing with the Andhra region. As the then government tried to suppress the agitation with armed police forces, it turned violent and 369 students and youths were killed in several incidents of police firing.
The Indira Gandhi government at the Centre tried to slow down the agitation and succeeded in putting the matter to rest, but not indefinitely. The movement regained momentum with the launch of the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) in 2001 by Chandrashekar Rao, who led the agitation for 14 years and achieved statehood on June 2, 2014.
Srikantha Chary was the first to give his life in the renewed agitation, immolating himself. When Chandrashekar Rao was arrested on the morning of November 29, 2009, and prevented from sitting on a fast-unto-death, a disheartened Srikantha Chary went to the Dr B.R. Ambedkar statue at LB Nagar crossroads around noon, poured petrol and set himself ablaze shouting “Jai Telangana”.
Within three days of Chary’s self-immolation attempt, a police constable in Nizamabad district, gave up his life on December 2, 2009, for the statehood cause.
Shooting himself with his service revolver atop a cell phone tower in Kamareddy demanding a separate Telangana, 37-year-old Kistaiah alleged bias towards Telangana natives in the united Andhra Pradesh. In a suicide note, Kistaiah wrote: “I am dying for the cause of separate Telangana. Drive people of Andhra from Telangana and fight for separate statehood.”
Chary, who had suffered 70 per cent burns, succumbed to his injuries on December 3, 2009, one day after Constable Kistaiah died.
Chary, 24, was a native of Podichedu in Mothkur mandal in Nalgonda district. He was a physiotherapy student and TRS youth wing office-bearer in LB Nagar in 2008.
Chary’s self-immolation and Kistaiah’s death intensified the agitation. Students, youths and activists hit the streets demanding statehood for Telangana. Violence broke out and Telangana came to a standstill, with bandhs and dharanas forcing the then UPA government at the Centre to make a statement on initiating the process for the formation of Telangana state on December 9, 2009, within a week of Chary’s death.
Kistaiah appealed to OU students not to stop their fight for separate statehood. “Telangana is more important than your studies. You get jobs only in a separate state. Fight for it,” he said in the letter. Kistaiah was part of many encounters against Maoists and therefore was given a weapon. He was a native of Shivaipally in Bhiknoor mandal of Nizamabad district.
Sources said Kistaiah was also unhappy over being denied a promotion. Though his batchmates were promoted as head constables and assistant sub-inspectors, Kistaiah was not promoted and he suspected that being a ‘Telanganite’, he was marginalised.
The third to sacrifice his life was Venugopal Reddy, an MCA student, who set himself ablaze on the Osmania University campus on January 19, 2010. A suicide note left by Reddy said he was disappointed over the delay in the formation of the Telangana state and feared that it would not become a reality. He also appealed to Congress President Sonia Gandhi to help in the formation of a separate state.
Reddy, a native of Nalgonda district, was a student at a private engineering college in the city.
Another student who gave his life was S. Yadaiah, who stated in a suicide note that the government was not responding to the statehood demand, as the agitation slowed after the appointment of the Sri Krishna Committee.
Yadaiah, just nineteen, set himself afire on the OU campus on February 21, 2010, shouting “Jai Telangana”. He was a native of Nagaram village in Ranga Reddy and was at OU to take part in the students’ agitation.
“People like me will get jobs if Telangana state is formed. I am giving life for Telangana and please don’t stop this movement till Telangana is achieved,” he said in the suicide note.
Following his death, various joint action committees called for an ‘Assembly Muttadi (laying siege to the Legislative Assembly)’ the next day, which turned violent as protesters clashed with the police.
A selfless struggle for one’s identity is Telangana Struggle and it spanned over many generations.1969 student leaders are proud to say they were the first torch bearers who carried the torch for the next generation to pick it up. They are the proud 1968, 1969 warriors of Telangana Movement. The first martyr of Telangana movement was a student named Shankar who hailed from Sadavashivapet, Medak District and died on June 24, 1969. Before someone shatters the history and forget the sacrifices of the 369 martyrs who were killed in police firing for the statehood of Telangana, #Khabarlive want to make this humble effort to bring this story to fore front. #hydnews #khabarlive

Use Face Masks at Public Gatherings, FG Tells Nigerians
* Confirmed cases of Covid-19 now 665
* Kano situation gets more attention
Onyebuchi Ezigbo in Abuja
The federal government has urged Nigerians to use face masks or improvised cloth mask at public places where social distancing may not be practicable.
It however advised that such practice must be observed along with other hygienic practices such as use of hand sanitizers and regular hand washing with soap.
The government also cautioned members of the public to use cotton material in making the mask and to avoid the use of nylon or polyester.
Speaking at a media briefing by the Presidential Taskforce on Covid-19 on Tuesday, the Minister of State for Health, Senator Olorunnmibe Mamora, said that the federal government had assessed the current state on the Covid-19 pandemic with regards to the rising cases in some states like Kano and has ordered heightened responses to such areas.
He said that more medical supplies have been distributed to the states with special attention to the states with more cases of coronavirus.
Mamora said that the Director General of the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC), Dr. Chikwe Ihekweazu, and a team of health officials had visited six states to assess the state of readiness to contain the Covid-19 pandemic.
As part of renewed efforts to arrest the spread of Covid-19 virus in communities, the minister said that the federal government has recommended that Nigerians wear face masks at all times at public places.
“We have intensified efforts in risk communication at grassroots level. The need to avoid mass gatherings without protecting yourself cannot be overemphasized. The use of face masks or face barrier that covers your mouth and nose has been scientifically proven to reduce spread of respiratory infection.
“I therefore urge all Nigerians to practise hand and respiratory hygiene, avoid mass gathering and put on a face mask at all times. The improvised cloth mask will suffice at community level. Please, always wash, iron and ensure the improvised cloth mask is not dirty,” he said.
While giving the latest updates on Covid-19 spread around the country, the minister said:
“As of Tuesday, 21st April, 2020, a total of 665 people in 24 states and the FCT have been confirmed to have COVID-19.”
He said the 38 new confirmations were distributed as follows Kano – 23, Gombe – 5, Kaduna – 3, Borno and Abia – 2 and 1 each in FCT, Sokoto and Ekiti.
Mamora said that 22 deaths have been recorded so far, while 188 people have recovered from COVID-19 in Nigeria and have been discharged.
The minister also spoke on the move by the federal government to support states with rising cases of infection.
He said that 23 national rapid response teams (RRTs) have been deployed to support the Covid-19 response in each affected states.
The minister expressed the fear that the country may have constraints driving through the new mass testing strategy due to limitations in testing kits.
According to Mamora, the country is comfortable with the testing capacity at the initial stage of the Covid-19 pandemic when testing was done on targeted basis, adding that now that new strategy is being adopted to stem community transmission of the virus, testing kits and laboratories may become a challenge.
“We with the community transmission, are doing active case search in communities. This strategy requires more testing kits and diagnostics. Currently, we are assessing additional laboratories for accreditation and will announce more laboratories soon,” he said.
Mamora thanked health workers for the good work they are doing as well as the sacrifice Nigerians have been making by obeying the lockdown directive.
“I also want all our health workers to be extra vigilant and ensure they protect themselves as they do their jobs. We shall strive as government to ensure we provide you with all the necessary PPEs required to do your work,” he said.

Topic: Credit Scores
The business value proposition- affecting and affected by stakeholders. The issue of credit scores is a latest development inmarketplace and already has targeted stakeholders. The success of credit scores is to be passed to these stakeholders. However, the response by stakeholders is going to affect the success of the project far and large.
Entrepreneurship in action. Entrepreneurship is all about putting resources and mind in an area that there are minimal investments. Companies such as Fair Isaac Co and Experian PLC have gone ahead to invest in some areas that are mentioned contrary to the expectations of competitors. The daring nature of these companies shows that there are lots of entrepreneurial skills at play. Ethics and social responsibility. In this article, there are serious ethical concerns that emerge.
For instance, the privacy of participants’ information is questionable especially id their data is to be used in developing an analysis. It is also critical to mention that companies take social responsibilities upon themselves to protect and improve the well being of others.
Credit scores are recentdevelopments in the market.
Making behavioral predictions by just asking people to take some scores is adding value to a number of sectors. For example, the Medication Adherence Score is the latest innovation to be brought to the world by Fair Isaac, and aims to gauge likelihood of a person taking prescribed medications. In this case, it can be seen that this innovation is meant to add value to the company’s name. It implies that the targeted stakeholders are to affect the outcome of the test. However, the company has a sole intention of testing its works on the persons, and therefore they become important stakeholders. Credit scores simply display innovation at work and use of entrepreneurial minds.
The rivals and partners to Fair Isaac’s innovation agree that the credit score innovation is one of a kind, and which shows that there are great minds at play. Additionally, the proliferation of these scores just shows that there is widening of trade and exploration of new areas of investment. The idea is to look at areas that have not been exploited, and knowing that it would generate enough interest on the areas; companies are putting their resources and minds on them. The idea itself is unique since it focuses on the historical information of people. The credit scores build on the basis that people have information; for example, the discretionary spending and pay index use the information on how people pay their bills. The latter is apparently entrepreneurship in action and should be highly encouraged. Ethical concerns are critical in running businesses. In essence, total disregard of the dynamics of people and failure to obtain a go ahead in the use of people’s information is illegal and totally unethical.
The invention of credit scores has been used to invade privacies of people, especially in accessing important medical data of a person. On the same note, it has become important for companies to be responsible to people when it comes to use of their information. Social responsibility in this regard means respecting the dynamics of people and using of the information for only the purposes intended.
On this particular invention of credit scores, there are some social responsibilities that are lacking. To recap it all, it is imperative to emphasize that for businesses, innovationswill be considered to be important only if stakeholders are put into consideration. In a business idea such as development of credit scores, what comes out clearly is the business mind and entrepreneurial skills that are involved in achieving desired goals and objectives.

Nova Scotia's Progressive Conservative government passed its first budget Friday in a spring sitting marked by long hours, contentious new tax measures and more criticism about Premier Tim Houston's conduct in the legislature.
In total, 31 bills were passed — 17 of them on Friday — during a sitting that was often acrimonious and involved little cross-party co-operation. Even the bill that was touted as an all-party effort — the Act to Dismantle Racism and Hate — ended up being criticized by members of the opposition because of the government's unwillingness to adopt amendments to address concerns raised by several Black MLAs.
Other notable legislation passed by the government included a bill to allow for the continued growth of the solar industry, further attempts to protect the province from being sued for the early closure of Boat Harbour to pulp mill effluent, recognizing Mi'kmaw as Nova Scotia's first language, and beginning the process to allow restaurants to permanently be able to sell alcohol as part of takeout and delivery orders.
The government is also creating a mandatory registry for all short-term rentals in the province, although it remains to be seen how that information will be used and whether the effort helps address the sector's impact on housing stock.
New taxes draw criticism
Following more protests outside the home of Nova Scotia Chief Medical Officer of Health Dr. Robert Strang, the government expanded existing legislation to create bubble protection from protests for senior health-care officials and providers at their homes.
The Tories' first budget included initiatives such as tax credits for fertility treatments and surrogacy, money for more surgeries and other efforts to improve the health-care system, a tax credit for kids' activities and a tax break for people younger than 30 working in the trades.
An element of the budget that drew considerable public criticism during the committee on law amendments was a new deed transfer and property taxes to be levied against people who own property in Nova Scotia but are not full-time residents, something that was a part of the Tories' election campaign platform.
The government originally sold the measures as an effort to help the housing crisis; however, faced with vocal opposition from people who questioned how effective that would be, later presented it as a way to help fund the tax break for people in the trades or create revenue in the face of a $500-million deficit.
COVID a factor in and out of the House
The government was also criticized for not increasing income assistance rates in the budget, something advocates for vulnerable people said amounted to a cut in financial support for those who need it most. Finance Minister Allan MacMaster pointed to one-time assistance measures the government announced in the lead up to the budget and said more help could come, but there are no definitive plans at this time.
Debate at the House took place against the backdrop of a surge in COVID-19 cases and deaths in the province, and hospitals overwhelmed by understaffing and high patient demand.
The pandemic also factored into operations at the legislature, with some House business delayed for two days following an outbreak among MLAs and staff. Multiple MLAs took advantage of the use of a hybrid model throughout the sitting as they came down with COVID-19.
After operations fully resumed with the hybrid model, the government started calling late hours at the legislature, moving things along as quickly as possible. It was something Houston, while in opposition, sharply criticized former premier Stephen McNeil for doing. Houston was less concerned about the approach earlier this week when reporters reminded him of his previous stance.
The premier's behaviour in the legislature was also the subject of debate in the final days of the spring sitting, with several MLAs criticizing the tone he was setting and his decorum. Several other MLAs apologized for their own conduct during long hours that seemed to put many members on edge.
As he did in the fall sitting when faced with similar criticisms, Houston pledged to do better.

Obama portends his Christianity. Now read his own public statements and actions. >>>>>>>
I don't know how the President has time to go to the bathroom if he has personally done and said all the things in the article.
Seems to me maybe the Wallbuilders should be checked out.
Everyone has the right to thier own religion and it is no one else's business.
Most of what I have read about what has been said about Obama is he is of a different religion than they are. So many Holier than thou people out there attacking other peoples religion and they either have none or don't live it. Think about, Do not Judge.
I think the whole article is a bunch of crap. Some parts contradicts the other statements.
How many of you out there have called the LDS church a cult? Don't try to deny it. I have been asked by many people in whatever town I have lived in. Payson, Mesa, Gilbert, Winslow, and almost all the other places I have lived when my husband worked on road construction.
Have any of you noticed there is not a Nativity Scene at Town Hall at Chistmas?
It may offend someone. Who made that rule?
Please do go to the Wallbuilders web site and click on About us. Read it all.
Go to Wikipedia and read about the founder of Wallbuilders.
Weather or not you like the source of the information, it's all TRUE. Obama wears his mask tight.
So what's the problem Pat? Doesn't seem much different to me than than precepts of LDS spreading their word and the members who knock on our home doors and what they say and ask. What part is not factual below???
•WallBuilders bills itself as an "organization dedicated to presenting America's forgotten history and heroes, with an emphasis on the moral, religious, and constitutional foundation on which America was built—a foundation which, in recent years, has been seriously attacked and undermined."
•WallBuilders' mission consists of "(1) educating the nation concerning the Godly foundation of our country; (2) providing information to federal, state, and local officials as they develop public policies which reflect Biblical values; and (3) encouraging Christians to be involved in the civic arena."
•In this capacity, David Barton has established himself as the Right's pre-eminent "historian" on the religious views of the Founding Fathers and their desire to establish a nation founded on Christian principles.
I don't like the current President and make no bones about it, it has nothing to do with his religion, his ethnicity, or even his legal status. I could make a list but there isn't room on this site. That said, our founding fathers remembered a world full of religious intolerance and envisioned a world without it. They took steps to insure that that didn't happen here.
The Government can't attack Budism and praise Zeroastrism because under our First ammendment both are protected. Christianity and Judaism are also protected. Islam, Hinduism and every other religion are protected under the first ammendment. The courts have ruled ( I disagree) that Atheism and Agnostics also are protected but I contend they are lack of religion and therefore excluded but my version doesn't count by law. So here is the bottom line.
The Government can't make a law that says yes to any religion and they can't make a law that says no to any religion. The Government can't say a non religion's rights are greater then an established religions rights and vice a versa. Freedom under the first ammendment, when it comes to the practice of a religious faith cannot be infringed upon period. The Government has crossed the line, the courts have gotten it wrong and in my opinion it needs to be straightened out. ( personally I wouldn't mind if a court of Christians made the decision but that's just me. ) It will not happen under Obama.
Thank you Mr. Haapala.
Don Evans ,all the information about the founder of Wallbuilders has the remark after it Undetermined so who ever wrote it doesn't seem to know if it is true or not. I will not argue religion with you.
I am not argueing religion Pat, but American Historical facts. I know you like facts, You never answered the question what part, if any, in the bullets above, is not factual. As for Wikipedia, , and Snopes, if you think they are not biased in their definitions and how they present or OMIT facts, keep swallowing the Kool Aide.
More facts> Americans to this day are inheritors of traditions and ideals passed down from the early Puritan settlers. Early in this century the German sociologist Max Weber wrote a book called The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism. Under various rubrics—the Yankee work ethic, for example—those ideas of Weber’s are still with us, and they have their origins in Puritan New England. From the Congregational religion, the Puritans also contributed to our political structure, initiating what became the “New England town meeting,” a still viable form of direct democracy. That localized means of government, WHOSE ORIGINS WERE RELIGIOUS, helped define the way localities in that part of the country are governed to this day. Similarly, in the southern colonies, where the Anglican Church was dominant, the county, or parish, was the basic structure of church rule and therefore also of political rule. Government by county instead of by township or village is still the norm in much of the South.
Perhaps the most important legacy of religious attitudes that developed in colonial America was the desire of the colonists not to let religious differences infect the political process as had for so long been the case in Europe. Thus our First Amendment to the Constitution may be traced to colonial times as part of the religious legacy of that era.

CATSKILL — A New Hampshire-based waste processing company is scouting an inactive cement quarry at the former Peckham Materials in Smith’s Landing for a site to recycle metal from ash shipped in from its other plants.
The company has no plans to burn waste in Catskill.
Wheelabrator, a company that converts waste into renewable energy, expressed interest in purchasing 158 acres on Route 9W including a former quarry owned by Peckham Materials Inc. Wheelabrator owns 26 plants in the United States and United Kingdom.
Company representatives made a presentation to the Village Board of Trustees on Jan. 23. Wheelabrator is testing the site to see if it is feasible for the facility and the project is about two to three years away from fruition, Manager of Development Mark Schwartz said. The January meeting was an introductory session, Catskill Village President Vincent Seeley added.
The site is ideal for the project, Schwartz told village officials.
“It’s an industrial zone with no repurpose value,” he said. “There’s no use for the land, there’s no abutters, there’s no disturbance of the viewshed.”
The project will also provide great benefits to the town and village, Schwartz said.
“It will help restore the loss to the tax base from the cement kilns,” he said. “And it will be a revenue source to the village. The town and the village could use this revenue stream for decades. It’s a win-win,” Schwartz said.
The facility could be a good thing for the town, Catskill Town Supervisor Doreen Davis said.
“Pending all the reviews, if it passes all that, then from a revenue perspective, it’d be a great source of revenue for the town.”
The town experienced a $50,000 loss in taxes when the quarry and cement plants closed, Davis said.
“In 2016 we almost didn’t make our expenses,” she said.
Seeley also sees potential for the company.
“There is potential windfall from a financial perspective for the village,” he said.
In addition to creating jobs, the revenue to the village from the company’s use of the water and sewer system is estimated at $250,000 to $500,000 a year, Seeley said.
The project is in its early stages, Schwartz said.
“We are doing subsurface studies of the site to test the hydrology, geology, seismic activity, resistivity and groundwater. We have found no fatal flaws so far,” he said. All testing has to be submitted to the state Department of Environmental Conservation for review.
Once the results are in and the reports completed, the project will move into its engineering phase, Schwartz said.
At the proposed site, metals will be filtered out of an ash reservoir monofill, with the ash brought in from Wheelabrator facilities in Peekskill, Hudson Falls and Poughkeepsie. Schwartz said.
A monofill is a landfill that contains only ash, no raw garbage, lined with a huge sheet of plastic, according to Hazardous Waste News.
Waste brought to the plants is burned in a boiler at 2,000 degrees. Pressure from the steam released by the combustion powers turbines to produce energy. Wheelabrator has four facilities equipped to produce ash, the waste product.
“We have similar monofills in Putnam, Connecticut, and Shrewsbury, Massachusetts,” Schwartz said.
The Catskill site would process the ash in a similar manner.
“Ash is transported to the sites in covered, watertight trucks and unloaded at the monofill working face, spread with a bulldozer, and compacted with a vibratory roller,” according to Wheelabrator’s website. “From the ash, further ferrous and nonferrous metals not removed via plant systems are recovered and sent to advanced metal recovery upgrade facilities to be recycled.”
In 2017, Wheelabrator recovered and recycled 160,517 tons of scrap metal that would have otherwise ended up in landfills, according to the company site.
The Putnam plant, which has new technology developed by Inascho BV, allows Wheelabrator to recover metals as small as 0.2 millimeters.
The metal is marketed for sale and after many years of use, the valley will fill with ash and the company will cover it, Schwartz said.
“We can plant indigenous species after,” Schwartz said, adding that these sites are also popular for renewable power after they’ve been used.
“There will be many more meetings to discuss [the project] with the public,” he said.
