A farm partnership agreement is a legally binding contract between two farmers who want to start a farming business together. The farmer partnership agreement is established to outline the terms and guidelines of the farming business. It is also created to legally protect both farmers in terms of the assets they each contribute to the business. In essence, the agreement is created to avoid any future issues or disagreements between the partners.
Identifying the Farmers
A farm partnership agreement should include the names of the two farmers who will be joining together to create the new farming business. The legal names should be used in the agreement so it can legally be used in court. The partnership agreement should also describe the property that will be used as the main farm for the partnership, including the name of the farm and the physical address. If the farm is owned by one of the partners, the agreement should identify the rightful ownership.
Partnership Activation
The legal activation date of the farmer partnership should be described in the agreement. It will have a set starting date and should outline whether the partnership is a limited partnership that will end once a collaborative project is completed or whether it is a long-term partnership. If the duration of the partnership is known in advance, it should be specified up front. If it is undetermined, the agreement should note this fact and detail the specific procedures that must be performed to break up the partnership. These procedures for dissolving the partnership should address what happens in the even of the death of a partner, and the protocol for the transfer of rights from one farmer to another.
Capital and Assets
Since two farmers are coming together to create a new farming business, the farmers may contribute some personal assets to help the business get started. These assets can include money, farm property, storing houses and buildings, farming equipment and machinery, grain and feed supplies, and livestock. Since each farmer may bring in a different percentage of assets, the assets should be outlined in the agreement to protect the rightful ownership of the assets for each farmer. In this regard, any losses the farm may experience during operations should also be addressed so both farmers know how to deal with the losses.
Ownership and Salaries
While the farmers may have equal ownership of the partnership business, it could be divided unevenly if one farmer contributes more labour or attention to the business. Each individual's monthly or annual salary should be divided according to the ownership rights and the responsibilities of each farmer. This is an especially important part of the agreement that must be developed in order to ensure that both partners are satisfied with their share of the work responsibilities and profit.

It is sobering to reflect that only some a long time have handed since practitioners of analytic philosophy of training had to meet in particular person resort rooms, late at night, at annual meetings of the Philosophy of Schooling Society in the USA, as a result of phenomenologists and others barred their access to the convention packages; their path to liberation was marked by discord until, eventually, the compromise of dwell and let reside" was labored out (Kaminsky 1993).
Some such normative idea of training is implied in every occasion of academic endeavor, for whatever education is purposely engaged in, it explicitly or implicitly assumed that certain inclinations are fascinating and that certain strategies are to be used in buying or fostering them, and any view on such issues is a normative principle of philosophy of education.
Some people work directly on issues of classroom observe, others identify as a lot with fields resembling academic policy evaluation, curriculum concept, trainer schooling, or some particular subject-matter domain equivalent to math or science education, as they do with philosophy of education.
Second, there's a corpus of labor somewhat resembling the first, but where the arguments are tighter, and the place the authors usually are individuals of some distinction whose insights are thought-upsetting—presumably because they've a level of familiarity with some branch of academic exercise, having been teachers, faculty principals, religious leaders, politicians, journalists, and the like.
It will not take long for an individual who consults several of the introductory texts alluded to earlier to encounter quite a lot of completely different our bodies of labor that have by one supply or one other been considered a part of the area of philosophy of schooling; the inclusion of a few of these as part of the sector is largely liable for the diffuse topography described earlier.

HoliPosted on March 7th, 2012 No comments
Holi, is a spring festival of colours celebrated in India, Nepal, Pakistan, and countries with large Indian population, such as Malaysia, Guyana, South Africa, Trinidad, United Kingdom, United States, Mauritius, and Fiji. In some states of India such as West Bengal and Orissa, it is known as Doljatra or Basanta-Utsav ("spring festival"). The most celebrated Holi is in the Braj region, in locations connected to the Lord Krishna: Mathura, Vrindavan, Nandagaon, and Barsana. These places have become tourist attractions during the festive season of Holi. The main day, Holi, also known as Dhuli in Sanskrit, also Dhulheti, Dhulandi or Dhulendi, is celebrated by people throwing scented powder and perfume at each other. Bonfires are lit on the eve of the festival, also known as Holika Dahan (burning of Holika) or Chhoti Holi (little Holi). After doing holika dahan prayers are said and praise is offered. The bonfires are lit in memory of the miraculous escape that young prince Prahlad accomplished when Demoness Holika, sister of Hiranyakashipu, carried him into the fire. Holika was burnt but Prahlad, a staunch devotee of lord Vishnu, escaped without any injuries due to his unshakable devotion. Holika Dahan is referred to as Kama Dahanam in South India. Holi is celebrated at the end of the winter season on the last full moon day of the lunar month Phalguna (February/March), (Phalgun Purnima), which usually falls in the later part of February or March. In 2011, Holi was on March 20 and Holika Dahan was on March 19. This year holi will be celebrated on March 8 and holika dahan will occur on March 9. In most areas, Holi lasts about two days. One of Holi's biggest customs is the loosening strictness of social structures, which normally include age, sex, status, and caste. Holi closes the wide gaps between social classes and brings people together. On holi, the rich and poor, women and men, enjoy each other's presence on this joyous day. Additionally, Holi lowers the strictness of social norms. No one expects polite behavior, as a result, the atmosphere is filled with excitement and joy. Every year, thousands of people participate in the festival Holi. Waiting for the day after the full moon in the month of Phalguna, or early March, These men and women are ready to spread the joy.
Holi has many purposes. First and foremost, it celebrates the beginning of the new season, spring. It also has a religious purpose, commemorating many events that are present in mythologies. Although it is the least religious holiday, it is probably one of the most exhilarating ones in existence. During this event, participants hold a bonfire, throw colored powder at each other, and go absolutely crazy. Originally, it was a festival that commemorated good harvests and the fertile land. In addition to celebrating the coming of spring, Holi has even greater purposes. Hindus believe it is a time of enjoying spring's abundant colors and saying farewell to winter. Furthermore, Holi celebrates many religious myths and legends. Rangapanchami occurs a few days later on a Panchami (fifth day of the full moon), marking the end of festivities involving colours.

Holy Medvedev Batman! Wendy sure has grown up! Russia opened up its first Wendy's this past June to controversial acclaim. Our American darling has traded up her innocent, unadulterated freckles and pigtails for some serious sex appeal. The models at the opening were decked out in thigh grazing dresses, red striped stockings, and stilettos.
What makes this so controversial is the fact that Wendy was the daughter of real life founder, Dave Thomas. Daddy's little girl has blossomed quite nicely, and now the people of the world can look at these models bosomed glory while munching on fries and burgers with a side of хрен (horseradish).
This isn't the first time an iconic American red head went through an international make over. Case in point: A 2005 debacle where Japan turned Ronald McDonald into a coquettish femme-fatale. With her crimson hair flying through the wind, and pouty lips ready for delicate McRib nibbling, Japan turned our hunky-dory clown into a certified sex bomb. Question is, why didn't we think of this first?

This may be the year of the dunk. Just a week after the NBA's exciting 2016 Dunk Contest, high school junior Melvin Lee showed the pros how it's done by soaring over two defenders in a video that has gone viral. Oh, and did we mention he's only 5-foot-five?
The dunk was so amazing, the game stopped so everyone could take a moment to process what they just witnessed, while everyone (including the other team) congratulated Lee with high fives.

Yesterday I saw a facebook post from a friend out for a cool treat– an awesome looking seriously chocolate mousse-like cake with an icy adult beverage topped with whipped cream. Oh my, taste bud envy! Mindful of the impact of a super cold and sugary ice cream treat on the gut, I reflected on what would be a healthier option to satisfy my sweet tooth as this heat wave wears on and on… and remembered this recipe. Ginger, coconut and lemon tropical cool sweetness! I'll make this again, and keep looking for new treat options… Here's that recipe as originally posted:
Dinner and dessert at my friend Sharon's house led to my discovery of the Living Candida Free cookbook by Ricki Heller, PhD, RHN…. and thus to this, my first attempt making my own modified version of her Carrot Balls recipe. Yum! My guests and I devoured these fast, and I think even my hardcore chocolate loving, non-vegan, non-gluten free, unabashedly desert centered sister would like these. A lot.
- 3/4t fresh ginger root, finely chopped
- 1 c raw unsalted sunflower seeds
- 1 1/2 t cinnamon
- 1/8 t cardamon
- 2 t ground flaxseeds
- 2 T coconut for balls, plus additional 6-8 T coconut for rolling balls in.
- 1 T plus 1t lemon zest
- 3 t lemon juice
- 1 1/2 t blackstrap molasses
- 1 t water, as necessary or skip the water and increase the lemon juice
- 6-7 T fresh finely grated carrot
Using a food processor, finely chop fresh ginger root, then add sunflower seeds, spices, ground flaxseeds, and coconut. Process until medium fine. Then add finely grated lemon zest, lemon juice, and molasses until it just comes together as dough– it will be rather heavy. Add carrot and pulse to mix evenly. Don't be frightened by its dense texture! Form into small balls, then roll each ball in a small bowl of the additional coconut to coat well. Refrigerate in an airtight Tupperware type container until firm and chilled. Makes 18-20 balls, with 2-4 balls being a perfect dessert serving.
My guests and I all thought these were a great dessert. I think they'd be wonderful too for a light breakfast snack if I need a little energy before going to an early morning yoga class.

Core Record
|Queen Elizabeth I
|English Heritage (Audley End)
|Rebecca, Biagio (Italian painter, 1735-1808, active in Great Britain)
|This bust-length portrait of Queen Elizabeth I by the Italian painter Biagio Rebecca (1734/5-1808) belongs along side a series of thirteen ancestral portraits commissioned by Sir John Griffin Griffin, 4th Lord Howard de Walden, 1st Lord Braybrooke for the ornamentation of the Saloon at Audley End in Essex. This room the first in a suite of five, newly arranged by Sir John Griffin Griffin is most richly decorated, as an observer of 1819 wrote: 'The frieze, cornice, pilasters and other parts, are richly carved and gilt; and the chimney-piece contains some beautiful miniature paintings, with the arms of the Howard family'. The interior architecture of this room gracefully integrates the rooms original Elizabethan 'stuccoed ceiling ornamented with pendantives' and frieze with an eighteenth-century neoclassical panelled interior suggestive of an arcade, each arch of which incorporates a portrait of 'the distinguished personages connected with the history of the place' (Wright's History of Essex, 1836). An extensive inscription records the genesis and development of the house. It is perhaps surprising to find Elizabeth I (1533-1603) included among the series of Howard portraits at Audley End since she was responsible for the execution, on charges of treason, of Thomas Howard, 4th Duke of Norfolk. However she treated his son more kindly, he became a trusted naval commander for her and was called to Parliament by her; in the next reign he was raised to Lord Chancellor.

|Commissioned from the artist by Sir John Griffin Griffin, 4th Lord Howard de Walden, 1st Lord Braybrooke, payment of £16 16s made 2 February 1774; recorded in the inventory of the purchaser, 1797; then by descent until 1971.
|Richard, 3rd Lord Baybrooke, History of Audley End and Saffron Walden, 1836; Catalogue of Pictures at Audley End, the Property of Lord Baybrooke, 4 August 1871.
Biagio Rebecca (1734/5-1808) was born at Osimo near Ancona in Italy. He studied at the Accademia di San Luca, Rome where he became a lifelong friend of Benjamin West, in 1761 he travelled to England with the portraitist James George with whom he was in partnership for a short time. He became one of the first students of the Royal Academy Schools on 31 January 1769 and was elected an Associate member of the RA in 1771. Rebecca was a highly skilled and prolific decorative painter and collaborated with the Adam brothers, with James and Samuel Wyatt and Henry Holland. He gained a considerable reputation for his grotesque paintings and grisaille bas-relief paintings examples of which are at Somerset House, London, Audley End, Essex, Heaton Hall, Lancashire, Harewood House, Yorkshire and Kedleston Hall, Derbyshire.

Beautiful. Fearless. Dangerous.The kind of girls you envy. The kind of girls you want to hate.Strangers in town for the summer, Penn, Thea and Lexi have caught everyone's attention, including the eye of practical Harper. but it's her sister, Gemma, they've chosen. Sixteen-year-old Gemma seems to have it all – carefree, pretty and falling in love with the boy next door. But her greatest passion is the water. She craves solitary late-night swims under the stars, where she can belong to the sea. But lately she's had company.Penn, Thea and Lexi spend their nights dancing and partying on the cove, and one night Gemma joins them. She wakes, groggy, on the beach the next morning and knows something has changed. And as she discovers her new mythical powers, Gemma is forced to choose between staying with those she loves – or entering a dark world brimming with unimaginable secrets.
I don't think I've ever read a book like Wake before. What primarily attracted me to pick up a copy was the fact that the book is blue (blue is my favourite colour) but the synopsis did intrigue me too. I've never been too interested in mythology or mermaids/sirens, but I figured that I would give them a try. I didn't have the highest of expectations but I wasn't expecting the book to be so… forgettable.
The main reason why I found Wake to be forgettable is its plot. The main body of the plot is rushed into and once it has happened, the story moves quite slowly until the final quarter when something exciting actually happens. I did manage to breeze through Wake, but the speed that I got through it didn't make the story any better.
I found the characters of Wake to not be very memorable. None of them really left a lasting impact on me and pretty much fell flat. I think my main issue is with Gemma; she changed a little bit too quickly for my liking. I would have preferred it if she had gradually changed throughout the book, rather than all at once. Harper, on the other hand, got on my nerves a bit. She seemed like she was a bit too big for her boots and needed to relax a little bit when playing mother to Gemma.
At odd as it may sound, the setting of Wake was the best part of the book for me. I live in a seaside town, similar to the one that Wake is set in. That's probably where the familiarities I have with this book ends. I particularly enjoyed reading parts in the book that take place in the water, because I find the water to be quite fascinating.
The creatures that appear in Wake are mythological sirens and their story is told in what I think is full detail within the book. Honestly, the myth just confused me. I just couldn't wrap my head around it other than, if you don't go with them you're going to die. That was pretty much all that I understood. I think once this series is over, I'll be sticking to The Little Mermaid type mermaids, thank you very much.
Every once in a while I read a book that is neither amazing nor terrible. For me, Wake is one of those books. While the premise certainly sounds interesting, the majority of the elements of the story are just average. However, I will be continuing into the series as I am interested to see what happens next in the series.

Research: Spanked children have lower IQs
Those against corporal punishment may have found support in research presented last fall that suggests kids who are spanked have lower IQs than kids who are not.
Murray Straus, Ph.D., a sociology professor and co-director of the Family Research Laboratory at the University of New Hampshire and Mallie Paschall, Ph.D., senior research scientist at the Pacific Institute for Research and Evaluation, studied nationally representative samples of 806 children ages 2 to 4 and 704 children ages 5 to 9. They looked at the children's IQ scores and how often the kids were subjected to corporal punishment, as reported by their mothers. When the researchers retested the children's IQ four years later, they found the younger children who had been spared the rod had gained five IQ points compared to kids who had been spanked, while older children who hadn't been spanked gained 2.8 points.
How often children were spanked seemed to make a difference, though even infrequent spanking appeared to have an effect, Straus says. The findings were announced at the 14th International Conference on Violence, Abuse and Trauma in San Diego, Calif.
The relationship between spanking and IQ is complex and is likely bidirectional, Straus acknowledges. Parents may hit because their child isn't doing something right – which may have to do with cognitive ability – without realizing their actions might be harmful in the long run.
"Corporal punishment is very stressful for kids and affects the brain very deeply," he says. Comparing brain scans of children who have endured a lot of corporal punishment with those of children who haven't suggests that corporal punishment permanently affects brain structure, he adds.
The stress involved in physical punishment might hinder concentration; it also may short-circuit language development and emotional expression. Research shows the more parents talk to children, the larger their vocabulary and the higher their IQ. Spanking, on the other hand, may seem a quick fix.
"Parents might think 'I don't have time to explain to a child, I know something that works,'" Straus says. Hitting also weakens the bond between parent and child, he adds, so that down the road, if a parent is trying to get a child to study, the message might not be taken as seriously. In an earlier paper, Straus and Paschall cited research that's found that even after taking parental education and occupation into account, children who have experienced corporal punishment are less likely than other kids to graduate from college.
Working with colleagues in 32 countries, Straus also found that nations in which spanking was more prevalent had a lower average IQ. The relationship between corporal punishment and IQ was strongest for people who continued to be hit as teenagers. Straus acknowledged that a higher level of economic development might underlie both fewer parents using corporal punishment and a higher national IQ.
Today, corporal punishment appears to be declining worldwide. It is banned in 29 countries, including three that have outlawed it this year.

If you're looking for the best restaurant in Kajang to have Hokkien Mee and Chinese Fried Rice, then Restoran Six One would be the place. After a long search, I am happy that I had come across this place. Not only do I feel the same, in fact most of the reviews on Foursquare talks about those two dishes only.
|Restoran Six One in Taman Sri Langat
|Menu On The Wall
|Just A Simple Restaurant
This restaurant is located in Taman Sri Langat, one of the Taman's that's located along Jalan Reko. I believe that they may have been here for a very long time since they are quite famous with the locals. They are famous for two things actually, the two food items that I had mentioned and their steep prices. In fact, this restaurant operates as a normal Chinese restaurant and you get a huge variety of dishes as well, all are priced at least 30% more than market prices. Even their noodles are priced similarly but since it tastes good, people have come to accept the prices. They are open daily with off days not being fixed. Business hours are from 11 am till 3 pm and then again from 5.30 pm till 10.30 pm. Orders are usually handled by the lady boss and it is she that decides the pricing. One good thing here is that even when you order a single plate of noodles, they would hand you a printed receipt when you pay and that comes with GST. I guess they must be doing very well to qualify for that revenue bracket.
|Fried Rice @ RM 7.95
I know you must be thinking that the price tag seems very odd. Yes, I too felt the same but I guess it helps later on when the GST element is added onto the final bill. Their Fried Rice was very good. In fact, it is one of those Fried Rice that has the exact same taste as Restaurant Ga Onn which is based in Tanjung Malim and I used to label them as the Fried Rice Masters. The Fried Rice comes with lots of Char Siew, eggs, sliced pork and some beans. The only thing that is missing here which is added into Ga Onn's preparation is Lap Cheong. But taste wise, it was very similar. Absolutely loved it and I would rate this at 9/10.
|Hokkien Mee @ RM 7.95
The Hokkien Mee was also priced at RM 7.95 . Portion wise, it was good for one adult. The noodle however was slightly different. It was fatter and was a little more chewy and that seemed a little different to me since we are so used to the commonly found thick noodles. The sauces were splendid, it was sufficiently moist and had just the right 'heat'. They had used lard too and that's another plus point. The other setback was the lack of chilli paste which for me is a must when having Hokkien Mee. Mixed feelings about this dish to be honest. Loved the dish but no so much the noodles itself and the lack of chilli paste was a let down as well. I would probably rate this at 8/10.
The Fried Rice was very good and I won't hesitate to call it the best in Kajang. For friends from Tanjung Malim, this was the exact same taste that you would get from Ga Onn Restaurant . The Hokkien Mee was also good but their noodles itself seemed thicker than usual and had a chewy texture which was one that I did not quite enjoy. Maybe, you need an acquired taste to enjoy this. Nevertheless, still one that I would recommend if you were to look at it as a complete dish and not bits and pieces. Till date, this is the best Fried Rice and Hokkien Mee that I have come across in Kajang.

10 Awesome Bachelorette Party Themes
1. Cowgirls and Kisses
Howdy ladies! On the last night before the bride gets hitched, grab your cowgirl hats, boots and plenty of sass before hitting the town. Reminder: get a veil for the bride's hat. After digesting some barbeque and a couple of beers, saddle up and see who can ride ride a bull the longest - last one riding wins and someone has to buy her a drink.
2. The "Bougie" Bachelorette
For a spot of sophistication take your bridesmaids to a vineyard for a tour, some demonstrations and copious wine tastings. Arlington Vineyards in Nashville, TN is a beautiful spot. We recommend finding some time around mid-afternoon for a picnic. Make sure to bring your favorite assortment of tasty cheeses, french baguettes or any other food your heart desires. The only thing left to do? Eat, drink and enjoy your scenic surroundings.
3. 50 Shades of Grey
Dress everyone in monochromatic greys or check out these swanky shirts from Society 6. We recommend the 50 Shades of Grey soundtrack - In other words, Beyonce's "Crazy in Love". Spend at least part of your evening reading dramatically from the book. Try to pick the juiciest passages so you can make the bride blush. After the party's over, send your bridesmaids home with some naughty party favors - handcuffs anyone?
4. Lingerie Party
Some sweet treats in the shape of corsets are a must for this bachelorette party. After food and champagne (or any alcohol of your choice) play some lingerie-themed games. One we like: Ask each of your bridesmaids to bring a pair of lingerie that represents their personality. Get the bride to draw at random and guess who brought each piece of lingerie.
5. The Bachelorette (Real Life Edition)
We love this idea from Popsugar. Start the evening off with a couple of Bachelor or Bachelorette episodes, some wine and roses. Watch until your favorite girl/guy gets sent home or proposed to, and then head off to the bars for your own night of Bachelorette fun. While you're at it, have each girl bring a rose and dare her to hand it out to a random stranger while saying: "Will you accept this rose?"
6. Peace, Body, Mind
Planning weddings can be extremely demanding and not every bachelorette party has to be raucous and wild. On a day of much needed relaxation, invite your bridesmaids along for some princess-worthy pampering. Perhaps take a private yoga or meditation class, get manis and pedis, or have everyone treat themselves to a massage and facial. To conclude, gather your party for some light finger food and fruity Pimms Cups.
7. Nautical & Naughty
This Bachelorette party was designed with the seafaring girl in mind. Hop on board a private yacht and spend a day on water with your closest friends. Or, if you're on a budget, find a luxurious hotel pool and pretend you're in the Caribbean. Either way, soak up some sunshine and work on your tans whilst sipping nautical-themed alcoholic beverages. We're thinking pineapple juice with rum, a blue curacao or sex on the beach.
8. Great Gatsby
"A little party never killed nobody!" The Great Gatsby theme is a fun one for dressing up. Go buy some flapper-style dresses, apply that bright red lipstick and grab decorated headbands - too much bling is not a thing. If you have a room to decorate you might want to go out and buy copious amounts of silver tinsel. Pour some bubbly and get wild with your girls. Oh, and call the limo, because a party with this much class needs a proper chauffeur.
9. Mascarade Ball
Our friends in New Orleans do this one really well. First, pick a theme: black and white, Bejeweled, Mardi Gras, Hollywood glam etc. Then have your group go out and buy masks. Alternatively, spend some time bonding together before the party by decorating your masks together. Before heading out, set up a photobooth and take pictures with boas and your masks. The night is about to get wild!
10. Bucket-list Bachelorette
Is the bride a list-maker? For a fun twist have the Bachelorette and her bridesmaids come up with a list of their ideal Bachelorette activities and spend the evening checking them off. Take pictures after each completed activity or grab souvenirs at each stop. It will be an adventure, memories will be made, and drinks will be had.
Almost done…

Japan (VIDEO)
A project by Meraviglia Paper. With Japan National Tourism Organization (JNTO).
Kyoto, Japan
Gion has the magical sound of Japanese metropolis. Although a tourist hub, you cannot help but being drawn to it, especially in Kyoto. You will love the row of traditional dwellings that directly abut the river and the pedestrian street lined by cherry blossoms. Our magnet in Gion is Kiln, we can reach it eyes closed. In the café on the ground floor they serve the most amazing breakfast: handmade rosemary biscuits, dried fruit cakes, scones with sultana and filtered coffee. You can leisurely enjoy it at the big table to share. In the evening, at Kiln restaurant, on the first floor, the Philippines-born Chef Marc and his team welcome you with a warm smile. The menu includes perfectly round bread baked in the wood oven, vegetable and feta pissaladière and citrus creme brûlé. It's a spot, where Europe meets Japan and the rest of the World and falls in love with them.
Wakuden Muromachi
Kyoto, Japan
It will not suffice travelling the narrow streets beyond the big main roads, full of cinematographic cues, going up the Kyoto Tower at sunset, visiting the many temples and shrines, or getting lost in the peaceful Zen gardens. In order to comprehend the hidden charm of Kyoto, even the less adventurous palates should try at least once the kaiseki cuisine, which boasts an age-old fame in this city. Wakuden Muromachi is the address to keep in mind. Dinner resembles a ritual in the ceremony of its gestures, the extreme elegance of its ceramics, and the extraordinariness of its courses composed of precise sculptures. A mix of sweet, sharp, extreme, strong, and subtle flavours. Easy or not, they will touch you and give you a deeper understanding of Japanese culture.
Iori machiya
Kyoto, Japan
Kyoto is what you would expect Japan to look like: low houses along the river, old temples surrounded by amazing gardens, hand-stretched noodles and for the luckiest (it's not easy to see them), geishas walking with silent and short strides and disappearing behind a door made of rise paper. To make the most of this magical experience, sleep in one of Kyoto's historical houses, now open to tourists. Staying in one of the traditional machiya (old townhouses with workshop) is an experience in itself. Relax on the unexpectedly comfortable futons, enjoy take-away sushi on a low table, try the sauna with views on the zen courtyard. Not only it's cheap, it's well worth the expense.

From the recording Trey Roque EP
"Ai! Yai! Yai! Ya!"
In a band and you play it good
Not on tape like you knew it would
So much trouble just to find a room
So much trouble just to play a tune
Get it right – got to lose the goon
Get it right not a moment too soon.

The Ten Mathematical Classics
|Chinese Mathematics
|History Topics Index
The Sui dynasty was short lived, lasting from 581 to 618, but it was important in unifying a country which had been divided for over 300 years. Education became important and mathematics was taught at the Imperial Academy. The T'ang dynasty, which followed the Sui dynasty, continued the educational development which had already begun and formalised the teaching of mathematics. The History of the T'ang records (see [1]):-
The astronomical observer Wang Sibian presented a memoir to the emperor reporting that the ten mathematical texts such as the Wucao suanjing or the Sunzi suanjing were riddled with mistakes and contradictions. As a consequence Li Chunfeng together with Liang Shu, an expert in mathematics from the ministry of education, and Wang Zhenru, a teacher from the national university and others were ordered by imperial decree to annotate the ten mathematical texts such as the Wucao suanjing or the Sunzi suanjing. Once their task was completed the Emperor Kao-tsu ordered that these books be used at the National University.The first T'ang emperor Li Yüan was known by his temple name Kao-tsu and ruled from 618 to 626. This allows us to date the start of the work by Li Chunfeng and his colleagues fairly accurately. Although called The Ten Mathematical Classics by later writers, there were more than ten books in the collection assembled by Li Chunfeng. The works were:
- Zhoubi suanjing (Zhou Shadow Gauge Manual)
- Jiuzhang suanshu (Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art)
- Haidao suanjing (Sea Island Mathematical Manual)
- Sunzi suanjing (Sun Zi's Mathematical Manual)
- Wucao suanjing (Mathematical Manual of the Five Administrative Departments)
- Xiahou Yang suanjing (Xiahou Yang's Mathematical Manual)
- Zhang Qiujian suanjing (Zhang Qiujian's Mathematical Manual)
- Wujing suanshu (Arithmetic methods in the Five Classics)
- Jigu suanjing (Continuation of Ancient Mathematics)
- Shushu jiyi (Notes on Traditions of Arithmetic Methods)
- Zhui shu (Method of Interpolation)
- Sandeng shu (Art of the Three Degrees; Notation of Large Numbers)
Let us look briefly at the contents of the texts.
1. Zhoubi suanjing (Zhou Shadow Gauge Manual)
This was essentially an astronomy text, thought to have been compiled between 100 BC and 100 AD, containing some important mathematical sections. The text measures the positions of the heavenly bodies using shadow gauges which are also called gnomons. How a gnomon might be used is described in a conversation in the text:-
Duke of Zhu: How great is the art of numbers? Tell me something about the application of the gnomon.The Zhoubi suanjing contains calculations of the movement of the sun through the year as well as observations of the moon and stars, particularly the pole star.
Shang Gao: Level up one leg of the gnomon and use the other leg as a plumb line. When the gnomon is turned up, it can measure height; when it is turned over, it can measure depth and when it lies horizontally it can measure distance. Revolve the gnomon about its vertex and it can draw a circle; combine two gnomons and they form a square.
Perhaps the most important mathematics which is included in the Zhoubi suanjing is related to the Gougu rule, which is the Chinese version of the Pythagoras Theorem.
The big square has area (a+b)2 = a2 +2ab + b2. The four "corner" triangles each have area ab/2 giving a total area of 2ab for the four added together. Hence the inside square (whose vertices are on the outside square) has area
(a2 +2ab + b2) - 2ab = a2 + b2.Its side therefore has length √( a2 + b2). Therefore the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle with sides of length a and b has length √( a2 + b2).
The author of the Zhoubi suanjing writes that Emperor Yu:-
... quells floods, deepens rivers and streams, surveys high places and low places by using the Gougu rule.This emphasises its practical use in surveying. However, the text of the Zhoubi suanjing also explains that the reason that mathematics can be applied to so many different cases is as a result of the way that mathematical reasoning allows one to pass from particular to general situations. This realisation of the abstract nature of mathematics is important.
2. Jiuzhang suanshu (Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art)
This is the most important of all the texts included in the Ten Mathematical Classics, but there is no need to discuss it in the article since our archive contains a separate article on The Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art.
3. Haidao suanjing (Sea Island Mathematical Manual)
This text was written by Liu Hui in 263 AD. This is a small work consisting of nine problems and it was originally written as part of his commentary on Chapter Nine of The Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art but later removed and made into a separate work by Li Chunfeng and his colleagues during the creation of The Ten Mathematical Classics. A translation of the Haidao suanjing appears in [3]
The Haidao suanjing shows how to use the Gougu theorem (Pythagoras theorem) to calculate heights of objects and distances to objects which cannot be measured directly. The first problem, which illustrates the style, concerns the height and distance to an island in the sea. It gives its name to the book.
P1 and P2 are poles 5 pu high and 1000 pu apart. When viewed from X at ground level, 123 pu behind P1, the summit S of the island is in line with the top of P1. Similarly when viewed from Y at ground level, 127 pu behind P2, the top of the island is in line with the top of P2. Calculate the height of the island and its distance from P1.
[Note: 1 pu is about 2 metres.]
Li Chunfeng and his colleagues added a commentary which begins:-
Here the summit of the island refers to the top of a hill. Poles are the tips of vertically standing rods. The line of sight passes through the tip of the pole and the summit of the island. ...Suppose the poles are of height h and the distance between the poles is d. Liu Hui gives the height of the island as h×d/(P2Y-P1X)+h and the distance to it to be P1X×d/(P2Y-P1X).
He then gives: height of the island: 1255 pu; distance from P1 to the island: 30750 pu.
Other problems in this work are the height of a tree on the side of a mountain, the distance to a square town, the depth of a gorge, the height of a tower on a hill, the width of a river, the depth of a valley with a lake at the bottom, the width of a ford viewed from a hill, and the size of a town seen from a mountain.
4. Sunzi suanjing (Sun Zi's Mathematical Manual)
Historians have given a wide variety of dates for this text but Wang Ling [4] seems to have the most convincing argument:-
The Sunzi suanjing mentions the mein as an item of taxation, and the hu tiao system. these two were first established in 280 AD. So the book could not have been written before this date. ... A new scale between chih and tuan was established in 474 AD; the Sunzi, still using the old scale by Wu Ch'en-Shih's emendation, cannot be older than 473 AD.Of course this dating assumes that the text was written as a whole, while it seems more likely that it was compiled, like many of the texts, from older sources. In that case Wang Ling's dating will only establish when part of the text was written, some possibly being earlier, while other parts probably have been written later.
The Sunzi suanjing consists of three chapters, the first describing systems of measuring with considerable detail on using counting rods to multiply, divide, and compute square roots. The second and third chapters consist of problems (28 and 36 respectively) concerning fractions, areas, volumes etc. similar to, but rather easier than, the problems in the Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art One problem, however, is of special interest, this being Problem 26 in Chapter 3:-
Suppose we have an unknown number of objects. When counted in threes, 2 are left over, when counted in fives, 3 are left over, and when counted in sevens, 2 are left over. How many objects are there?This, of course, is important for it is a problem which is solved using the Chinese remainder theorem. In fact the solution given, although in a special case, gives exactly the modern method. After solving the particular problem (the answer is 23) the Sunzi suanjing gives a method for arbitrary remainders:-
Multiply the number of units left over when counting in threes by 70, add to the product of the number of units left over when counting in fives by 21, and then add the product of the number of units left over when counting in sevens by 15. If the answer is 106 or more then subtract multiples of 105.5. Wucao suanjing (Mathematical Manual of the Five Administrative Departments)
This text is clearly designed for the teaching those entering the five government departments set up in the Sui district around 220 and which lasted until 581; the text is probably from the fifth century. The five departments were Agriculture, War, Accounts, Granary, and Treasury and there is a chapter relating to each. The main interest in this text is that although many of the 19 formulas given to find the areas of different shapes of fields in the first chapter give approximately the right answer, they are actually incorrect. This motivated later mathematical work.
6. Xiahou Yang suanjing (Xiahou Yang's Mathematical Manual)
This text contains three chapters containing 19, 29 and 44 problems respectively. None of the problems presents anything new.
7. Zhang Qiujian suanjing (Zhang Qiujian's Mathematical Manual)
Another work of three chapters with 15, 22 and 38 problems respectively. There are problems on the least common multiple and arithmetic progressions.
8. Wujing suanshu (Arithmetic methods in the Five Classics)
A slightly strange work which contains a commentary on specific parts of five non-mathematical texts. The commentary does contain mathematics, particularly relating to questions concerning the calendar and large numbers.
9. Jigu suanjing (Continuation of Ancient Mathematics)
We do know the author of this work, namely Wang Xiaotong. It is a strange mixture of practical problems arising in the construction of dykes and canals with fanciful problems which would not arise in practice. Sometime, strangely, problems contain both aspects.
10. Shushu jiyi (Notes on Traditions of Arithmetic Methods)
The author of this text is claimed to be Xu Yue and to have been written at the beginning of the third century. This is unlikely and almost certainly a later author trying to claim a certain respectability for his writings. It is a difficult work to understand, in part showing how very large numbers can be constructed using powers of ten. The author may have had in mind convincing his reader that it was possible to express arbitrarily large numbers. Parts of the text seem to have more religious content than mathematical.
11. Zhui shu (Method of Interpolation)
This book was written by Zu Chongzhi (sometimes written Tsu Ch'ung Chi). He was an outstanding mathematician but sadly the text of the Zhui shu has not survived. It is known that Zu Chongzhi found the very good approximation to π, namely 355/113 , and it is thought that this book used clever methods to find areas and volumes using limiting processes. Zu Chongzhi seems to have been the first Chinese mathematician to compute correctly the volume of a sphere. The Zhui shu was too advanced for the students at the Imperial Academy and it was dropped from the syllabus for that reason. This almost certainly explains why the text has not survived.
12. Sandeng shu (Art of the Three Degrees; Notation of Large Numbers)
This book was written by Dong Quan.

HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. -- Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort has taken another step in ensuring the care and growth of wildlife on its golf courses through work with Audubon International. The Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program for Golf Courses (ACSP) has certified the Arthur Hills course in Environmental Planning, a program designed to help golf courses preserve and enhance the environmental quality of their courses.
This is the first of six steps needed to become a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Golf Course. The Robert Trent Jones course completed the certification in 2012, and the resort hopes to complete the process for Hills by the end of 2015 with the George Fazio course soon to follow.
"The Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program benefits both people and wildlife," says Tara Pepperman, director of Cooperative Sanctuary Programs at Audubon International. "It's a great way for the managers of developed properties and environmental organizations to work together to become better stewards of land and natural resources."
Equipment operators and golf superintendents have been working hard to earn the designation at Hills, mapping habitat, conducting wildlife counts, creating new nesting areas and submitting the required paperwork. "By joining and participating in the ACSP, the Hills Course will enhance habitat for wildlife and preserve natural resources for the local community," says Patrick Wake, director of golf course maintenance for the Hills course.
The Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program for Golf Courses, endorsed by the United States Golf Association, provides information and guidance to help golf courses preserve and enhance wildlife habitat, and protect natural resources. Golf courses from the United States, Africa, Australia, Canada, Central America, Europe, New Zealand and Southeast Asia have also achieved certification in the program. In addition to golf courses, Audubon International also provides programs for businesses, schools, communities, and new developments. For more information, visit www.auduboninternational.org.
