This is the second spreadsheet of twoin the Baseline Study of Food for Peace Title II Development Food Assistance Program in Niger--Agricultural Practices.
Baseline Study of Food for Peace Title II Development Food Assistance Program in Niger--Mother Pregnancydata.usaid.gov | Last Updated 2018-11-13T05:02:48.000Z
This dataset describes the behavior of the mothers during pregnancy as determined in the Baseline Study of Food for Peace Title II Development Food Assistance Program in the Maradi and Zinder regions in Niger. It has 19 columns and 2,262 rows. In fiscal year 2012, USAID's Office of Food for Peace (FFP) awarded funding to private voluntary organizations (PVOs) to design and implement a multi-year Title II development food assistance program in Niger. The main purpose of the Title II program is to improve long-term food security of chronically food insecure population in the target regions. FFP contracted a firm, ICF International to conduct a baseline study in targeted areas of the country prior to the start of the new program. The purpose of the study was to assess the current status of key indicators, have a better understanding of prevailing conditions and perceptions of the population in the implementation areas, and serve as a point of comparison for future final evaluations. Results would also be used to further refine program targeting and, where possible, to understand the relationship between variables to inform program design. The study was conducted in 2013, while FFP expects to conduct final evaluations as close as possible to the end of the program five years later.
West Usambara Plateau Soil Properties and Classification Datadata.usaid.gov | Last Updated 2019-10-21T18:24:14.000Z
In this manuscript, we synthesize current and legacy data from multiple studies to better understand the distribution and diversity of soil types and their properties in the Plateau physiographic region of the West Usamabara Mountains in Northeastern Tanzania. Analysis of soil properties and soil classification in the resulting dataset of 468 sites by land use, landscape position, and elevation revealed important relationships relevant for management and land use planning. These sites occurred across a range of landscape positions and an elevation gradient from 1040 – 2240 m.a.s.l. Soil diversity at the U.S. Order and WRB Reference Group levels was higher than expected, with five U.S. soil orders and seven WRB Reference Groups described in the dataset, and the highest soil diversity occurring at lower landscape positions. We found that soil organic carbon (SOC) and pH were two master variables that were correlated most other soil properties. Sites under cultivated land uses had the lowest topsoil soil organic carbon (SOC) concentrations, and SOC generally increased with increasing elevation. Mature forest and charcoal production areas did not significantly differ in their depth distributions of SOC. Valley soils had significantly lower surface SOC concentrations but higher exchangeable bases and pH values than all other landscape positions. Soil pH decreased by an average of 3.5 units across the entire elevation gradient and decreased by 1 unit with elevation even after SOC, land use and landscape position were included in multiple regression models. Local pedotransfer functions were developed to assist with the use of pH, clay and SOC as proxies for more difficult to measure soil properties such as cation exchange capacity (CEC) and base saturation (B.S.), bulk density and total phosphorus. Phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) were identified as the most likely limiting nutrients in West Usambaran plateau soils in general. This information is critical for sustainable land management which will be applicable to the soils of other mountain complexes in the Eastern Arc chain.
Post Distribution Monitoring Data Set I for Emergency Food Security Program in Eswatini, 2018data.usaid.gov | Last Updated 2019-07-29T20:51:59.000Z
The post distribution monitoring (PDM) surveys relate to household food security and the role of food assistance in achieving household food security. The survey asked how beneficiaries use food assistance transfers, whether that usage is consistent with the way in which the project was designed. Through an accountability mechanism, the beneficiaries could also speak to challenges and provide feedback.

Trainer Victor Cheeseman has kept saying Fleurette is one of the best creole three-year-old fillies he has ever trained.
And as if to prove him right, Fleurette made it two wins in a row for the year when she made all the running in the Grandstand Posse And Bubba Sports Bar Trial on Saturday at the Garrison Savannah to stay unbeaten for the year.
Sent off as the two to one favourite in the betting, the speedy daughter of Zwick was taken to the lead by jockey Anderson Trotman and was quickly joined by Black Rock with jockey Rickey Walcott astride. Walcott won on Fleurette in her last major win on January 14.
Approaching the three-furlong marker, Fleurette's jockey was sitting chilly and Black Rock's Jockey was working hard for all his worth but could not keep up with the top three year old so far this year. Butterfly was circling the field as Black Rock was going the wrong direction to the back of the field. At the finish Fleurette went on to win by five and a quarter lengths, sending a signal that she will be the one for the three-year-old classics. Butterfly held on for second with Celebrity Star running on for third and The Girlz Dem Sugar holding on for fourth.
Cheeseman had ran first and third in the $30 000 event and made it back-to-back years of winning after winning with Northern Star last year. Winning owner Suzanne Miller got bragging rights on her husband Luther G MillerIII when his Black Rock ran a disappointing fifth of sixth starters. Winning jockey Anderson Trotman made it 499 wins in his career in Barbados and just needs eight more wins to join the great Chally Jones as the all-time winning rider. Trotman won three races on the card, including race three on Prince Hector to start the ball rolling; race six on Maussanne; then winning the day's feature on Fleurette to be the leading rider of the weekend.
Owner Sir David Seale won two races – race three with Prince Hector and race seven with Marcus Antonius. His wife Lady Seale won the last race when jockey Whitehall piloted Sebastian to victory. Trainer Liz Dean won three races on the day to be the most successful trainer.
The ride of the day was Jockey Reshawn Latchman's effort on Marcus Antonius in race seven. Marcus Antonius who had not raced since last year's Sandy Lane Gold Gup, fought off his stable mate Daunting David with a strong hand ride from Latchman running on for victory.
Looking at the three-year old classics coming up which will start with the first leg of the Triple Crown, the Guineas in April, Fleurette looks like the early favourite. Black Rock still can't be ignored from that one bad effort and horses like Miss Megyn who has three wins from four starts and who race fans can't wait to see going over the trip. Zip Code who has had five starts and five second places could land at any time and the improving Celebrity Star this year will be very exciting.
Racing continues on March 4 with the Sandy Lane Gold Cup.

Ken Calvert's Town Hall, he phoned it in…
I tried to participate in Ken Calvert's telephone town hall tonight, even recorded some of it. Unfortunately, they never took my question or even my promised recorded voicemail.
Many of my comments were addressed by others and most were deflected by Representative Calvert. I am certainly no expert on this stuff, but here are the points i would have brought up.
- CRA bill – Representative Calvert seems to have missed the distinction between internet service providers that offer services like Google, Facebook, or Snapchat and telecommunications providers that provide the very lines on witch those services depend. This is a critical distinction. Unlike service providers, it is not so easy to just find a telecommunications provider who's policy you agree with. In most of America, they are practically monopolies.
- Russians!! – Lifting sanctions preventing Russian intelligence agency from purchasing surveillance technology? Why now? Representative Calvert talked about apposing foreign manipulation of our elections, but what about foreign money buying influence? Citizens united says money is speech, but what about foreign money?
- Obamacare Vs Trumpcare – Preexisting conditions? Failing program? It is certainly not perfect (don't get me started), but my family would be destitute if it weren't for the Affordable Care Act. The current offering as a replacement looks terrible and doesn't include amendments for preexisting conditions. What will next year bring?
Another great video from @cgpgrey!
Rules for Rulers! Incredible explanation of power and politics. Watch it!

Just participated in my first podcast for Hart Attack!
It was fun, we talked about technology, hacking, and corporate oppression. Unfortunately, there wasn't time for hope. I'll have to come back on to explain that it's not all doom and gloom. Episode 117 airs on Saturday evening. Downloads available
sometime after here. Here is a link to more shows:
Hart and I have worked together for some time. He is a mogul of all things horrific. Now he takes on the horror of the modern day with a political/news podcast.
My first domain is mine again! muhahaha!
Back in 1997, I registered my first domain benforpresident.org. It was a silly site that I would do almost nothing with. I had grand plans for a genuine run for 2016. With technology on my side, how could I fail? Well, I missed a registration payment and it was snatched from me. Oddly, the content remained the same in the hands of it's new owner. Nothing was added, nothing was changed. (apart from some tracking javascript). Yesterday on a whim, I checked it's availability and reacquired it. I don't know exactly what I am going to do with it, but for now, I have set the clock back to 1997. typos and all. got ideas?
free your mind! free our internet! Stop SOPA PIPA!
Rap News provides insightful commentary on wikileaks!
Greatest analysis and explanation of the cablegate i've seen on any media source. you go guys!
also, another good one. . .
A Tinkerer's Sunset
This article describes an upbringing with computers that in addition to being quite similar to my own almost certainly will ring true with many readers. It talks of apple's beginnings. In those days in order to make anything your own you had to tinker. Many computers at the start shipped not only with a basic interpreter in place of an operating system, but with schematics as well. Unfortunately for some, times have changed. If modern apple continues on the path they have clearly laid it means an end to the tinkerers lifestyle.
When DVD Jon was arrested after breaking the CSS encryption algorithm, he was charged with "unauthorized computer trespassing." That led his lawyers to ask the obvious question, "On whose computer did he trespass?" The prosecutor's answer: "his own."
Apple is trying to do the same with their touch devices. iPhone, iPod Touch, and the new iPad require serious hacking before any tinkering can be done. If apple has their way, they will have jailbreaking void more then just your warranty and your service contract. You've come a long way from your hacker roots Apple. Your design is amazing, but PLEASE remember your pledge with OS X to be "Open for Business." From what i have seen, apple is no more open then they are required to be by all the licences they themselves are using.

Chocolate, "clean eating", and why people just need to chill out and embrace moderation
Once again in an attempt to prove why we can't have nice things, one of the other pieces of the article I quoted in my last post talked about how dark chocolate may not necessarily be all that great for you either. I am well known among my friends, family, co-workers, and fitness community for saying "I eat very healthy, but you'll have to pry the chocolate out of my cold, dead, rotting fingers."
And I am totally serious. 😀
Granted, on one hand, one must not overdose on anything–especially anything that's sugary and calorically dense. But on the other, I can't help but feel that there's a great deal of scaremongering as click-bait to take advantage of people who are already neurotic about food. Every couple of days I get emails titled things like, "Why exercising makes you fat", "Why drinking water makes you fat", "Why cardio makes you fat", and am expecting the next one to be titled, "Why merely breathing dooms you to be fat, you fatty fat fat person".
Chill. The. Hell. Out.
There's this unnecessary struggle in a culture that wants it both ways. We can't be sedentary and consume twice as many calories as needed and expect to be healthy. At the same time, we can't obsess over every crumb we put into our mouths until we develop an eating disorder. The phrase "clean eating" is constantly thrown around, but it's become a nebulous term without a clear definition. People are told "Avoid processed food", but technically nearly everything is processed to a certain extent, so that's meaningless too. "Avoid chemicals", some say, but once again, technically EVERYTHING is a chemical and is composed of chemicals so this is once again meaningless. "Appeal to nature" is a logical fallacy which is oft used by the health and fitness "experts" to scare you into buying their product, book, what-have-you. Don't buy into it. Don't try a fad diet or think that you have to eat in an unnatural, highly restricted, and limited way in order to be healthy. Use common sense and good judgment.
People fail at "diets" because they see them as the following:
- Torture
- Deprivation
- Restriction
- Temporary
"Clean eating" is about eating reasonably healthy 80-90% of the time and enjoying yourself the rest of the time. It's about making changes in your habits you can feel comfortable and content maintaining for the rest of your life. People need to develop a healthy relationship with food and learn how to enjoy it in moderation without either feeling deprived or starved. Food is fuel, but it can be tasty fuel.
This is one of the many reasons why I tell people over and over again: any diet which vilifies any of the macronutrients: fats, carbs, or protein, avoid like the plague. All are required in your diet in varying amounts in order to have a balanced meal plan. So when you hear "Carbs are evil", "fat makes you fat", run, just run. Neither "advice" will help you to be healthy and will actually harm you in the long term.
And enjoy your chocolate (in moderation). 😛
Side note: one of the sanest reads I've found in a while on the subject is called The Lean Muscle Diet: A Customized Nutrition and Workout Plan–Eat the Foods You Love to Build the Body You Want and Keep It for Life! A lengthy title but a worthwhile read. Regardless of whether or not you are vegan or paleo (and the book discusses both), it's invaluable. It discusses in depth how to eat for fitness in a sensible way that you can maintain indefinitely.

- Add me to your Facebook if you don't have me on there already: http://www.facebook.com/andreaberman
Once I see you've done both, I will add you to my private fitness challenge group on Facebook where you and others will help to motivate each other and keep each other on track!
Don't let the weekend jeopardize your fitness goals!
From Monday to Friday, we have a routine due to our busy work lives and often it's easiest to stay on track with our nutrition and exercise during that time. On weekends, it's entirely too easy to slip up, binge on unhealthy foods at parties and gatherings, and throw out the rule book entirely.
You don't have to deprive yourself, but you don't have to kill your fitness goals entirely every weekend, either. Stay on track by remembering to drink plenty of water, eat lots of veggies, fruit, and whole grains, and when presented with options that are less than healthy either passing them up for healthy food instead, swapping them out with a healthier version, or picking one thing to eat in moderation and leave the rest.
I'm a firm believer in the 80-20 rule: eat healthy 80% of the time and 20% of the time allow for reasonable indulgences. Same holds true for weekend. Don't do 80% unhealthy or worse yet, 100%! Remember your "whys" and your motivation for living a healthier life.
And then, have an ice cream sundae on occasion. 🙂
Happy weekend!
Accountability partners help you with your fitness goals!
It's true! Studies have shown that if you have someone around who can remind you of your "whys" and help you keep motivated, you're far more likely to stay on track for your fitness goals. This can involve being in a group of people dedicated to similar fitness goals, someone who works out with you in the gym, a fitness coach or a trainer, you name it!
Don't have anyone in your life at present who is supportive of you or could potentially be supportive? Find a good online group of people like yourself! Search in social media platforms like Facebook, join a meetup.com group, you name it! I also recommend Noom (smartphone app), MyFitnessPal, and Fitocracy. There are lots of Facebook groups for all sorts of different workouts, single moms trying to get fit, 9-5 people looking to make a difference, etc.
Trapped at work? Start a walking lunch group! If there's a gym nearby, find out if anyone goes to it and attend it with them.
You don't have to go at your fitness goals alone, let alone feel alone. There are options! Check out this article on further suggestions.
And of course…I'm also here for you too as a potential fitness coach. Drop me a line and find out if we'd be a good fit for each other or not!
July's fitness challenge pack sales are almost over!
There are THREE challenge pack specials for the month of July, and they end in a week! All of them come with a month's supply of Shakeology in your choice of flavor, and bag vs packets.
I have fitness challenges going for both PiYo and 3 Day Refresh, so a purchase of either will get you into my challenge group! Come join others like you on the road to Team Happy and Healthy!

Top advantages of recording at a professional sound studio
The history of recording studios can be tracked down to the 1880s when Thomas Alva Edison invented a phonograph. It was initially intended for improving the telephone, but it also created a viable way of recording and playing sound. In 1887, Emile Berliner found a way of etching those grooves or sound-carriers on the surface of the horizontal disk to facilitate mass production of recorded disks. Contemporary recording studios normally have their specified location with staff members who are knowledgeable about how things work in an audio recording. If you have composed a song, and your friends have confirmed that your song is amazing, you would be definitely in search of one of the best Sydney recording studios that would help you to realize your dream of recording your track.
But if you have no prior experience in working in a recording studio, it is important to have a basic idea of the gear and equipment you need for the whole thing to work fine. Some of the most crucial things you need in a recording studio in Sydney include:
A great digital aid: It is quite obvious that you own a PC that itself is capable of being the hotspot of your recording regime at home. Whether it is a Mac or a PC, great music can be made on both, and it is advisable to carry it with you to one of the Sydney recording studios since you are experienced and comfortable working with it. Your personal computer with a great amount of RAM loaded can ensure success of your recording venture.
Any kind of Digital Audio Workstation: Commonly referred to as DAW, this is the program you'll probably need for recording and editing and sometimes mixing and mastering your music. There are quite a few choices among these programs and anything, be it Sonar, Reason, Live, Pro Tools, Audition, Cubase or Studio One, all would work fine. Just make sure that you are used to with the features and options, and that it is compatible with your device and its platform.
A rock-hard and reliable audio interface: While working at one of the reputed Sydney recording studios, you can have an easy access to the audio interface which you will need to turn the acoustical and analog sounds into the digital ones. Most of the DAWs work fine with the audio interface leading to a relentless number of boxes to select from. But there is no reason to be overwhelmed; experts advise to limit yourself to just 2 of them and not to spend unnecessarily.
A good quality microphone: Mics are an important component of any recording and if the recording is mostly by yourself, then you will not need more than one or two mics. Since there are so many good quality mics available in the market, selecting the ideal ones would not be a difficult task unless you are looking for something specific and the Sydney recording studio can also supply you with the mic.
Thus, when you find best recording studios in Sydney, it can let you have an access to all the things you would need to turn your recording venture into a grand success.

TheLADbible launches mental health campaign "U OK M8?"
Press release • Sep 12, 2016 15:34 BST
"We're aiming to generate more data-driven insight into male mental health and anxiety than has ever been achieved before." - Ian Moore, editorial director TheLADbible Group
TheLADbible Group is launching "UOKM8?" a three-month campaign to raise awareness of male mental health issues. We're aiming to develop the broadest understanding of mental health and suicide risk in the UK. Currently, suicide is the biggest killer of British men under 45.
TheLADbible will partner with a range of charities including Samaritans, the Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM), the Movember Foundation and the Mental Health Foundation over the next three months to engage our huge youth audience and get men to open up to each other.
TheLADbible will also be also be gathering quantitative and behavioural data from our audience to develop the broadest picture on the scale of these issues ever achieved. We will share that data with policy makers and charities and build an open source information bank for all the relevant stakeholders.
TheLADbible campaign will launch with Everyday Heroes, a series of documentaries from young British filmmaker Mollie Mills, whose previous projects include Boys Don't Cry. In the launch film, Olympic gymnast Louis Smith talks about his own experiences of depression. https://www.facebook.com/LADbible/videos/2907633279283843/
"I was snatched away from my old life so quick, I got that down I could see why people would end up committing suicide…I think men try to be proud. Almost to the point that they try to be in denial. And if anything goes wrong, it just boils over," says Smith.
Other video content created for the campaign includes a film about Andy's Man Club, the Halifax-based mens' group set up by campaigner Luke Ambler. The film series will be supported by an ongoing series of editorial pieces to drive conversation about these issues and a dedicated '"UOKM8?" hub integrated into theladbible.com site.
Ian Moore, Editorial Director of TheLADbible Group said:
"We know that our audience are hugely affected by these issues and that they need to feel that opening up is the brave thing to do. Around half of all British men between 18-24 follow TheLADbible and I believe that by opening up our platform so our audience can talk about these issues, we can persuade young men to give themselves permission to talk about the feelings of isolation, anxiety and depression that they currently keep secret. We're aiming to generate more data-driven insight into male mental health than has ever been achieved before."
Jane Powell, CEO CALM said:
"More than three times more men take their own lives than women in the UK, and we don't know why. CALM is proud to be working with The LADbible and supporting "UOKM8?" to explore masculinity and dig down into why the single biggest cause of death for men aged under 45 is suicide. The LADbible are brilliantly placed to help us listen to and learn from a huge number of guys and help build a better understanding of this silent killer."
Samaritans CEO Ruth Sutherland said:
"Every 90 minutes someone in the UK takes their own life and many more men die by suicide than women. We all have a responsibility to understand more about the risks and what we can do to prevent people dying by suicide. Any insights and data that we can gather and understand through working together with The LADbible's audience could prove life saving."
Mark Rowland, Director at the Mental Health Foundation said:
"This ambitious campaign from TheLADbible has the potential to give us insights into one of the defining issues of our time on a scale not seen before. We know there's a crisis in men's mental health, the suicide statistics alone tell us this. What we need and what we hope this campaign can achieve, is to shatter the silence around this topic. Creating a culture that tackles the stigma and enables men to feel able to open up about their mental health and get support early when they need it. Before things reach crisis point."
Sarah Coghlan, Global Director Men's Health Promotion, the Movember Foundation said:
"The Movember Foundation is delighted to be part of TheLADbible campaign 'UOKM8?' Too many men are dying too young and it's an issue that's been ignored for too long. It's vital to engage with men where they are, to understand what works best, to help make change happen sooner, before it's too late."

As a small business owner or entrepreneur of a new start-up, finding the right talent to bring your vision alive can be a challenge. While it may seem easy with an unemployment rate at a near all-time high, filling the gaps with the most qualified and talented candidates can pose as a challenge to even some of the best human resource departments.
Don't worry though; you have the largest pool of potential job candidates right at your fingertips. Thanks to the millions of people flocking to such social media sites like LinkedIn, Facebook, or Twitter, social media has become a major recruiting tool to finding top-notch talent for your small business. With a little help, you'll be finding some of the best talent. Here's how.
Use LinkedIn
Probably the most obvious of all social networks is LinkedIn. As the world's largest business social network, LinkedIn allows you to post job listings and easily search for top talent with LinkedIn Talent Advantage. This will cost some money, but if you're in need of talent, it can be an extremely helpful tool. However, there is another method (which is more cost effective).
Thanks to LinkedIn groups, you can hone in on a specific niche and solicit talent. For example, if you are in need of a web programmer, why not search for the most active web programming groups and publicly announce your job opening there? Better yet, mention you are in need of a web programmer on your company's page in the form of a status update. Those who are already connected to your page will see the update and will be able to notify their friend who just happens to be a web programmer.
Once you've found a few candidates, be sure to take the time to check out their profiles. Do they have recommendations? Is there a profile picture? Are they active in relative groups? Do they have any connections in common to receive outside referrals? These are all important when scouting for employees who will take your small business to the next level.
Learn more: LinkedIn 101
Use Twitter
140 characters is not much space to work with. But if you get creative, Twitter can be a useful resource to attract top talent. One of the best practices for finding talent is through the use of hashtags. For more on hashtags, check out our Twitter Tactics for Small Business Owners.
When posting a job opening through your company twitter account, try to keep in mind popular and active job hashtags such as: #job, #hiring, #jobpost, or #recruiting. Thanks to Twitter search (search.twitter.com), there are hundreds of users searching these hashtags each day and are likely to stumble across your tweet, even if they are not one of your followers.
Use Facebook
When searching for top talent, one of the last places you'd expect to turn to is Facebook, but in fact, this social network can be a viable tool for recruiting. With over 800 million strong, chances of finding your next employee is highly likely.
We're willing to bet your small business has a presence on Facebook with Facebook Pages for Business. This is a great place to post job opening information, as your fans are generally eager to share your information with their friends.
Another free tool is the Facebook Marketplace. While easy to post a job title, location, description, and company photo, it does have its limitations. Unlike Facebook Ads, the Marketplace does not allow you to target specific audience groups and really hone in on potential candidates.
If money isn't a problem, then you can always post a job listing within Facebook Ads. Here you have much more control over details such as cost per click, target audience (age, interests, geographical location), and the decision to run your ad continuously or only for a pre-determined amount of time.
Remember there is no wrong way to go about recruiting talent through your social networks. The talent is out there, but it's up to you to find it. So get creative and start tapping into your social networks to find your next employee.
Have you used social networks to recruit talent for your small business? Which network worked best for you? Share your success story with us!

Under: Cyprus cats
The bad weather does not want to go. On Monday we had rain all day. I did not work, but I went there to check my cats. Half of who I found were wet and cold. I took good food for them, but nothing else I could do. The next day the rain stopped so I went to work. The cats were all right, they did not seem to me sick. But I have a little black and white boy, who does not stay there, he just come to eat every day two - three times and go. He was little sick from Christmas, but he begun to look better, but this rainy day made him more sick. He is very thin now, and sick from the cold. I tried to catch him, but I could not. He comes near me, but he did not leave himself to touch. He comes to eat every day, he came today also. I am afraid the day is near when I just wait him, and he will not come. :(

Last of the summer #photography
It's the autumnal equinox tomorrow and only a month until the end of British summer time. There is time to get in some more landscape photography as all the colours of nature begin to change. We might get some sunny autumn days, but I expect the temperatures to start to drop now.
The summer events have come to an end and there will be few events in autumn and so landscapes are a better option. I also photograph streets and buildings and the autumn light can be suitable for photographing buildings. We have to expect cloudy skies now and chilly photo shoots.
I can already see the colours beginning to change. We have more delicate shades of green and already some red and yellow is beginning to appear.
This is the river Tame in Sandwell Valley and I'll go back in a month or two to photograph it again in autumn when many of the trees will be a deep red colour. It makes quite a good winter picture too as the colours change again and get darker.
These images aren't too bad considering the cloudy sky. I used aperture priority and an ISO of 400 and the aperture was about f/8.

Research Project
Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (C)
Following results have been obtained by the three-year research (1995,1996 and 1997) supported by this grant.1.The Hidaka metamorphic rocks were formed by progressive metamorphism under the conditions of the greenschist facies to the granulite facies. The pressure and temperature conditions are estimated to have been 450゚C,0.2 MPa to 900゚C,0.5 MPa by means of several kinds of geothermometor and geobarometor. The age of the metamorphism are estimated to have been 56-40 Ma (Eocene) on the basis of data of K-Ar dating.2.Leucosome of pelitic and basic metamorphic rocks of the Hidaka metamorphic belt is solidified parts of melt formed by partial melting of these rocks. On the other hand, melanosome is residue of partial melting.3.Partial melting reactions of pelitic rocks of the granulite facies (zoneD and zone E) are as follow :1.3 biotite + 4.6 K-feldspar + 78.3 plagioclase + H_2O = 100 melt + 3.2 sillimanite + 191 quartz (in zone D),13.4 biotite + 8.6 plagioclase + 15.6 quartz + 16.9 sillimanite = 100 melt + 13.7 K-feldspar + 10.8 cordierite (in zone E).4.Partial melting reactions of basic rocks (amphibolite migmatites) of the granulite facies (zone E) calculated by the isocon method are as follow :0.77 hornblende + 10.00 plagioclase + 0.01 limenite = 0.04 magnetite + 10.98 + melt (in the lower temperature part of zone E),1.85 hornblende + 10.00 plagioclase + 0.0.ilmenite + 12.54 quartz = 0.01 magnetite + 23.96 melt + clinopyroxene (in the higher temperature part of zone E).5.Protolith of basic metamorphic rocks is basalt of N-MORB compositions.

Recent Tampa Fishing Charters report:
The Cobia ( Rachycenton Canadum ) other common names include black kingfish, crab-eater, prodigal son, black bonito, ling, and lemon-fish. Cobia are on the move for the next couple of months. They can be found around buoys, pilings, wrecks, and inshore this time of the year. Live bait like crabs and large pinfish are top bait choices, for artificials its hard to go wrong with an eel imitation or a buck-tail jig, these fish are rapid growing so even the large fish are very inexperienced and easy to fool. When targeting cobia start at a local boat ramp and work your way marker to marker buoy to buoy. When arriving to a marker or buoy I will general turn off the motor about 25 yards out so I can get my tackle and bait prepared. Have a bucket of saltwater up front so when trolling up to the location your bait will be fresh and ready to go. And by trolling up to the location you won't spook them. If you do back off a few yards more than likely they will return. I use medium to heavy spinning gear, 40lb braid, 40lb leader, and a 3/0 hook. Immediately try to turn their heads to open water. Cobia will use the structure to break you off. Once in the open water the battle will begin with ( Rachycenton Canadum ) Cobia.

Don't Look Behind You
Crime Files #15
by Ann Rule
(Paperback, 480 pages, True Crime)
Synopsis taken from Goodreads: Walking home on a dark night, you hear footsteps coming up behind you. As they get closer, your heart pounds harder. Who is closing in with dangerous intent—a total stranger? Or someone you know and trust? The answer is as simple as turning around, but don't look behind you . . . run. Ann Rule, who shared her own nerve-jangling account of unknowingly befriending sadistic sociopath Ted Bundy in The Stranger Beside Me, chronicles other fateful encounters with the hidden predators among us in this riveting collection, fifteenth in the bestselling series drawn from her personal files. First in line is a stunning case that spanned thirty years and took a determined detective to four states—ending, finally, in Alaska—where he unraveled not one but two murders. A second case appears to begin and end with the hunt for the Green River Killer, focusing on a Washington State man who was once cleared as a suspect in that deadly chain of homicides. But the millionaire property owner believed he had successfully buried his own murderous past and the awful truth behind his young wife's disappearance. She vanished soon after she left for a day at the Seattle World's Fair, and her three small children grew up believing their mother had abandoned them. But one amazing witness remained—the missing woman's best friend, who heard her last words in a frantic phone call—"He's coming!"—before the line went dead. Only since Robert Hansen's suicide has the monster within been revealed. In another true story, a petite woman went to a tavern, looking only for conversation and fun. Instead, she met violent death in the form of a seven-foot man who had seemed shy and harmless. You'll feel a chill as you uncover these and numerous other cases of unfortunate victims who made one tragic mistake: trusting the wrong person—even someone they'd known intimately, or thought they knew.
My thoughts: I have read all of Ann Rule's True Crime Files and most of her novels, and she is still one of my favorite authors but I found this collection to be just okay. It didn't hold my attention and I seemed to get bored with it pretty quickly, good thing my mom let me borrow her book and I didn't have to purchase it.

The Twinkle Stars in a group incorporating singing songs, movement to music, rhythmic percussion, and playing a string instrument such as the Violin, Viola or Cello. This means that you do need to be willing for your child to hire/buy an instrument and bring it along each week. No experience is required and we start with the absolute basics. Mums and Dads are encouraged to join in!! The Twinkle Stars is aimed at 2-8yr olds.
Class facilitator, Rachel John says, " I am inspired by the fact that music is a special gift and that research proves that learning music assists children academically particularly due to the regular stimulation of bot sides of the brain. The earlier we do this, the more equipped our children will be."
"There is a movie called "Music of the Heart" with Meryl Streep in it, about a true story of an inspiration teacher giving group music lessons. In addition, the Suzuki Method of violin/viola/cello again caters to group learning. Finally, I have two little children and I want them to be involved."
The CSO Association is a vibrant community of musicians that is right on our doorstep and as with all the CSO ensembles, membership entitles attendance at all groups. Child membership is $70 per year and if a sibling or parent would like to join in, the cost is an extra $30 to make it a family membership of $100.
Rehearsals are Mondays 3:15-4pm at the Armadale Salvation Army Church.

August Announcements Send Tremors Through Red Sox Nation
Two had been at least whispered about on some level, while the second of the three came out of the blue to all including the person involved. But the timing of all three announcements were sudden and unexpected at the moment of the word breaking.
On Saturday night, August 1, the word came out that Larry Lucchino was stepping down as Red Sox President/CEO. It was also announced that Sam Kennedy would be promoted to President on the business side only. But no plan was formalized to replace Lucchino's voice on the baseball operations side of the equation. Immediately there was speculation the Sox would hire a President of Baseball Ops, a format used in recent years by the Cubs (Theo), Dodgers (ex-Ray GM Andrew Friedman), D-backs (Tony LaRussa), White Sox, and Phillies.
Rumors had swirled since at least spring training if not sooner, that Lucchino was being phased out. But the sudden Saturday night timing was still unexpected. Did Lucchino plan this exit as he contended or was he pushed?
The second bombshell announcement landed as the Red Sox began their current home stand last Friday, August 14. Manager John Farrell spoke in the media room, and told everyone he had been diagnosed earlier in the week with cancer-- Stage One Lymphoma. This of course overshadows any of the other August announcements because this is a real life crisis, not a baseball related one. Farrell informed us that his doctors are very confident in his beating the disease because it was caught early. Farrell does have nine weeks of chemo therapy ahead of him, so consequently he will not manage again in 2015. Bench Coach Torrey Lovullo will be the interim manager. After months of speculation about John Farrell's job security due to the impending second straight last place finish, this is now pushed to the back burner. But the now delicate matter still will need to be addressed sometime after the season.
Last night, August 18, late in the Red Sox win over Cleveland, the next earthquake announcement hit Fenway Park. As hinted at since the Lucchino announcement, the Red Sox did indeed hire a President of Baseball Operations, and the choose to announce it during a week night game in the middle of the NESN/WEEI Jimmy Fund Telethon. Long time baseball exec Dave Dombrowski was their man. Dombrowski had built winners in Montreal and Miami years ago, and had been the President of the Detroit Tigers for over a decade until a couple of weeks ago. He will report directly to John Henry and Tom Werner and will have final say in all of baseball operations dealings. Dombrowski's hiring is effectively immediately. Within the announcement came word that Ben Cherington declined to remain as General Manager under Dombrowski and was leaving the Red Sox after helping with a transition period.
This a bold move by a franchise that needs boldness as 2015 will be the fifth time in six seasons this team has missed the post season (granted that sixth season, 2013, was a humdinger). Here are just a few random initial thoughts:
This is the end of the Theo Epstein Era. Ben Cherington was in his fourth year as GM and had actually been with the Sox since 1999, longer than Theo. But Ben and many of his men were Theo era holdovers and the expoused much of the same philosophy. Dombrowski will bring in a completely fresh set of eyes to examine this franchise and any players they may attempt to acquire from other teams. As I read today, excluding one year of interim GM Mike Port (2002) the last Sox GM not born and bred in New England was Haywood Sullivan!
Dombrowski has a well deserved rep as an excellent trader. Unless the So decide to reverse field on signing over 30 pitchers ( and that was a John Henry policy not Ben C....it may or may not change.) trading will be crucial in finding the needed pitching. The type of deal the Sox need is the type of deal Dombrowski pulled off to acquire Max Scherzer, before he was MAX SCHERZER, from Arizona.
Dombrowski has a reputation of unloading his farm system to acquire veteran big leaguers. For example he traded his top two prospects years ago to get Miguel Cabrera. Those top rated kids were Andrew Miller and Cameron Maybin. It is entirely possible (likely even) DD will trade one or several of the prized Sox kids. This may be because it is his style or it may be he will evaluate the prospects entirely differently than Ben. But I strongly disagree that Dombrowski unloads the entire farm or young stars all ready on the team. His reputation is for building successful teams, not raping farm systems for the fun of it. I suspect DD will be very happy to have a team built around Bogaerts, Betts, E Rodriguez, Swihart/Vazquez, Bradley, Castillo, etc. But he is a fresh eye and voice, maybe he will trade Betts or Bogaerts for a Sonny Gray type. Or maybe being a new regime with power to apply, he will deal Dustin Pedroia or some other unexpected move.
Dombowski has has a rep for not being a analytics guy, but instead an old school scouting guy. His replacement in Detroit, Al Avila, said one of his first moves would be to beef up Detroit;s numbers department. But Boston has this asset in place and John Henry himself made his millions by crunching numbers. I will be very surprised if Dombrowski takes this team back into the Dark Ages of baseball info usage.
Bullpen. The major flaw of the 2015 Red Sox (and God knows there are other flaws) was a horrid bullpen. This is the biggest worry I have about a Dombrowski administration. His Detroit teams made the post season year after year, but every Tiger team seem to have mediocre to poor bullpens. DD will have to find nearly an entirely new pen in Boston. Peter Gammons tweeted last night that DD prefers hard throwing pitchers, let's hope he finds several for the 2016 Boston bullpen.
Bringing Dombrowski in now rather than October or November will be a huge help in getting ready to overhaul the Sox. It will give the new man several weeks to evaluate the whole franchise from top to bottom.
Dombrowski's own signing will be just the beginning of major front office and staff overhaul. First a new GM to work Dombrowski must be selected. Names like Frank Wren, former Atlanta GM, Dan O'Dowd, ex- Rockies GM, and ex-Angel Jerry DiPoto ( all ready hired last week by Boston as a "consultant") are among the rumored candidates. But I would expect nearly all of the baseball ops execs who worked around Cherington to go. Dombrowski has been in the game for over 30 years, he will have numerous candidates to bring into his department.
And as mentioned in the Farrell section above, at the appropriate time (NOT NOW) the delicate matter of John Farrell remaining as manager will have to be addressed. Normally everyone would fully expect a new regime to name their own manager. But when your incumbent skipper has cancer, that complicates the issue. And who knows maybe Dombrowski wants John Farrell as his manager.
This winter's hot stove has all ready been lit in Boston, and it was ignited by using gasoline. From the inferno hopefully a contending club will emerge for 2016.

This is more in Sam Kennedy's department but a top priority has to be firing Steve Lyons from NESN. He makes WB Mason's Extra Innings Live unwatchable!ReplyDelete
Well this August just continues to get worse. This certainly is not on the level of the "real life" problem that Farrell is dealing with, but the apparent forcing out of Don Orsillo has Red Sox Nation irate. Just a quick visit to twitter will give you an idea of just how popular Donny O was with the fans. Another horrible decision by the executives on Yawkey Way.ReplyDelete
Sam Kennedy seems to have answered Cousin Jason's cries to fire Steve Lyons by cutting out Don Orsillo instead. Horrible.
I'm going to miss Don's dulcet tones on the NESN broadcasts. I really just can't understand it.ReplyDelete

According to officials, nothing has been planned under the scheme but the application process has been initiated on the orders of higher authorities. On each working day, people gather outside the DUDA office at the Agra Municipal Corporation (AMC) premises. According to sources, con-men have also become active around the office and try to fleece applicants of their money by misleading them.
In the district, DUDA is running the Basic Services to the Urban Poor (BSUP) scheme. Officials are already in search of land to develop houses for poor citizens under it. A senior official said, "We don't know where the houses will be developed under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojna. The dimensions of the houses have not been communicated by the authorities. These houses are meant for economically weaker citizens. A detailed plan needs to be developed before any implementation can start."
Under the scheme, the government has set a target to provide houses to two crore families belonging to the economically weaker section (EWS) in urban areas by 2022.
The first phase of the scheme involves 100 cities in the country including Agra. Those who don't have their own roof are to be provided with houses by end of March 2017. After this, the second phase will begin in April 2017 and continue till March 2019 followed by the third phase from April 2019 till 2022.
The Centre will provide assistance in the range of Rs 1 lakh to Rs 2.30 lakh per house under different components, including redevelopment of slums. Low-interest housing loans will be available for selected applicants.
Anamika Singh, project officer of DUDA said, "For the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana land, land and permission for construction has to be determined by the state government. The application process has been initiated on the direction of higher authorites."

Recently I entered my second booster draft.
I was sitting on the couch, planning on just chilling in the house when the Geek Retreat Facebook page posted that they had a special prize that night: the limited edition Sin Collector card. With its exile ability and deliciously creepy artwork, it would be perfect for my Black/White deck.
Determined to win the card, I decided to make my way to the tournament and texted a couple of pals to see if they were going along. Everyone was busy that night, so it was me drafting alone. I'd been in a tournament before and done alright: I'd come fifth overall under the tutelage of Dan and another participant, but this time my success boiled down to how much I'd learned over the previous months.
After registration and some banter with the other attendees, our pods were arranged and we cracked open our first packs. Dan had sent me some deck ideas that afternoon and I tried to put together combinations based on them, but nothing particularly cohesive appeared.
So I winged it instead. Theros doesn't have much response against flying creatures, so to begin with I started selecting all the fliers I could. After pulling a few Prescient Chimeras and Setassan Griffins, I realised this wasn't the way to go: no properly powerful fliers such as Spellheart Chimera and Medomai the Ageless were appearing, so I changed tack to large blue and green creatures.
When nothing but Vulpine Goliaths popped up, however, I realised that that this would be a terrible idea and I started to panic. With my heart in my mouth, I popped open the second booster and had a flick through…
Luckily I was saved by the appearance of Akroan Hoplite. Picking him out the pack, I decided to make a Red/White deck that utilised the Heroic and Scry mechanics unique to Theros. Because I'd taken so long to decide on my colours, rarer cards were hard to come by, so I bolstered my deck with low cost common and uncommon cards.
With a little tidy up from Michael, my deck was good to go. My sideboard was a travesty, but with this deck and my eye on the prize, I was ready for my first duel.
My first match was against Colin, who had had the same problem with deciding which kind of deck to build. As a result, he'd constructed a three-colour creature deck, which unfortunately didn't work for two rounds. Despite a sideboard change, I won both duels.
My next opponent, Ryan, had chosen a Red/Black deck. We began the game and I managed to pull ahead for the first round, using my double-scryed Flamespeaker Adept to destroy his defences. Round two was a hard-fought battle, ultimately culminating in Ryan utilising Grey Merchant of Asphodel's ability to devastating effect.
Round three turned into a war of attrition, with both of us chipping away at each other until Ryan gained the upper hand. I had one round to win and take the match, but things weren't looking good. After having a look at my limited options, I put down a couple of creatures with high devotion counts, played a few cheap enchantments then slapped down a Fanatic of Mogis, dealing enough direct damage to unexpectedly win the game.
Final score: 2-1 to me.
I was in good stead for winning the limited edition Sin Collector. I jumped into battle with my final opponent Douglas with fire in my belly and my eyes on the prize. I drew my first card…
And proceeded to get utterly pumped by his White/Blue deck. No matter how hard I tried, I simply couldn't best him: for every Heroic-triggering spell I cast, he had a Stymied Hopes and whenever I tried to attack, he'd always counter with Voyage's End. I had no hope against his deck and the match was a whitewash in his favour.
It was no doubt a huge knock to my chances of obtaining the fabled Sin Collector card: I had come so close, yet remained so far. We waited for the other matches to end and sorted out the prize cards. It didn't really matter, though: the one card I wanted was out of my reach.
Michael walked over to our pod and I hung my head as he announced the winner…
What!? I had won!? But I'd lost my last game badly, so surely I'd had no chance of victory. There must be some mistake!
But no, the results were in and I was the sure victor of my pod. With a massive smile on my face, Michael handed me the grand prize: a limited edition Sin Collector.
I'd taken part in my first solo booster draft and managed to win the card I'd wanted so much. The plan was to put it into my deck, but for now, I think he'll stay in my folder as a memento of my first prize win.
Bring on next month's tournaments.

There are some great posts describing how to use Hyper-V to trade data between the Hyper-V Host and the VM without relying on network connectivity. This comes in handy when a VM is not available on the network, WinRM is not available, or security is just a little too tight for comfort.
Here's some of those posts:
- Hyper-V Script: Looking at KVP GuestIntrinsicExchangeItems
- Sending messages and commands to a Hyper-V Virtual Machine Guest OS using the KVP Exchange
- Hyper-V Key-Value Pairs
In my environment I want the Hyper-V host to know when a VM reaches the state where the FIM Service is running. They way I do it is to use DSC to create a registry key. Pretty simple.
I'll follow-up with the script to consume the Key-Value pairs on the Hyper-V host.

South-west England, south and mid-Wales and the Midlands have borne the brunt so far, with eastern areas set to be hit later.
The strongest gust was recorded at The Needles off the Isle of Wight.
Rail services are disrupted, some cross-Channel ferries are cancelled and drivers are urged to take extra care.
The Met Office has issued an amber "be prepared" wind warning for Wales, south-west England, London and south-east England and
says coastal areas could see giant waves and localised flooding.
BBC Weather forecaster Peter Sloss said there had not been winds so strong across such a wide area of southern Britain since the
winter of 2013-14.
Winds of 70-80mph have been recorded in many areas, including 78mph in the Isles of Scilly and 74mph in Mumbles, near Swansea.
The sea state could reach "phenomenal" - the highest level on the World Meteorological Scale - at times around western coasts, with
waves of more than 14m (46ft) forecast.
Latest live updates from south-west England as Storm Imogen hits
There are nearly 60 flood warnings in place in England and Wales - meaning flooding is expected - and more than 200 flood alerts -
meaning flooding is possible.
Met Office forecaster Craig Snell said: "People should be prepared for disruption to travel on roads, rail, bridges and ferries and we
could see possible damage to structures and downed trees risk affecting power.
"The wind will be combined with some hefty showers with some thunder along the south coast."

Further to the recent launch of the Westlaw HK Student Representative (WSR) Programme, the first of its kind in Hong Kong, Westlaw HK officially launched the 2010 programme in Hong Kong University on 21 January 2010, with the strong support of the Hong Kong University Library and in particular the Law Library.
Following advanced legal research training, the Westlaw HK Student Representatives for Hong Kong University were announced and introduced to their peers, and from today they will start sitting lab hours in the library to assist other students in legal research using Westlaw HK. At the launch, students who signed up for a lab session with the Westlaw HK Student Representatives were entered into a lucky draw for a Thomson Reuters laptop bag and Westlaw HK accessories kit.
Also unveiled was the new Westlaw HK Computer Terminal which has been installed by Westlaw HK at Hong Kong University. This terminal provides dedicated access to Westlaw HK for any student using the library, ensuring that regardless of how busy the Law Library is, there will always be one terminal where Westlaw HK will be available.
Westlaw HK would like in particular to thank the staff at the Hong Kong University Law Library for their dedicated support and enthusiasm for the programme and also for their efforts in setting up this event.
Also, thanks must go to the staff at Chinese University of Hong Kong and City University of Hong Kong for their support in their respective WSR programmes.
