(Houston and London) ABS and Lloyd's Register (LR) announce the release of jointly-developed software that will be used to assess bulk carriers and oil tankers designed to comply with IACS Common Structural Rules (CSR). The common software draws upon the technical strengths of ABS and Lloyd's Register and will be used to evaluate new designs presented to either society.
Recognizing the strengths of their collaborative efforts and to demonstrate commitment for consistency, ABS and LR also announce the establishment of Common Structural Rules Software, LLC – a joint company with offices in Houston and London. The entity will maintain the newly released software and develop new common software which will assess vessels designed to comply with the harmonized CSR that will be submitted for industry review in 2012.
"I am pleased that the strategy laid out a decade ago is achieving our objectives," said ABS Chairman and CEO Robert D. Somerville. "First was the development of the CSR which was completed in 2005. It was always our vision that the next step would be the common software that we announce today. Since many shipowners have also been requesting common software, this is truly an important milestone. The joint venture will hopefully help to drive the final step – the adoption of common software by other societies. It is ABS' and LR's desire that other societies join in this initiative."
"This is what shipowners, designers and shipbuilders need. We can only obtain consistency in CSR calculations through common software," said Richard Sadler, Chief Executive Officer of Lloyd's Register Group. "We very much hope that other classification societies will join this common project."
CSR Software is being officially released to the industry today. Training sessions will be offered in key maritime locations with the initial sessions scheduled to occur in Shanghai, China during March.
CSR Software Managing Director Aidan O'Donnell, who has been with this project since its inception, is looking forward to the next stage, "Harmonized CSR presents an ideal opportunity to establish usage of common software in support of the new Rules. Establishing consistent application from the outset will be easier through our joint development."
"ABS and LR have developed an excellent working relationship during the last few years," said CSR Software Director of Operations Robert Spencer. "We have mutual respect for the technical capabilities of each society and this is important as we begin the development of the new software."

Haverhill Chamber of Commerce Lodges Objection to Plans to Pedestrianise Town's High Street
15 Mar 2012
Haverhill Chamber of Commerce has officially objected to plans to pedestrianise the High Street after canvassing views of retailers in the town who have signed a letter against the proposals.
The Chamber, which exists to represent the voice of Haverhill's business community, believes that the plans will seriously impact on the retailers of the town who are already challenged by the current economic climate.
The Chamber has gathered together a group, which includes most of the traders and businesses on the High Street (both members and non-members), who are affected by the proposal and written to Suffolk County Council on their behalf. More than 40 traders and businesses have signed the letter.
Sarah Howard, Chairman of Haverhill Chamber of Commerce, said: "After canvassing views from retailers in the town centre, the Chamber fully understands the difficulties that full pedestrianisation will bring to businesses on the High Street.
"We broadly agree that the current excessive use of the High Street by cars cannot carry on. However, many businesses could not operate effectively with complete lack of access. We have several very workable suggestions to put to the County Council and have invited them to meet with us to discuss them."
Members of the Haverhill Chamber of Commerce attended today's (15 March) Haverhill Area Working Party meeting at Castle Manor Business & Enterprise College where the plans were discussed.

Key points:
- Growth of business activity accelerates to quickest in survey history
- Strongest expansion in new business since January
- Cost inflationary pressures ease to mildest in three months

New HNZ owners reach for the skies
Relevant offers
After being bought out of the late Alan Hubbard's business empire in 2011, Helicopters New Zealand is becoming a growth engine for its new Canadian owners.
While Helicopters New Zealand was much the smaller of the two companies, it has effectively transformed Canadian Helicopters Group's business, taking it throughout Australasia and up into high-growth Asian markets.
That fact, and the brand value of Helicopters New Zealand, was acknowledged earlier this year when the Toronto-listed company adopted the name HNZ Group.
New contracts, such as one in the Philippines, and extensions and renewals of existing gigs, such as with Shell in Australia, are coming in, while the business has also been strengthened by seasonal activity across two hemispheres.
In July 2011, Canadian Helicopters Group completed its $154 million buyout of the assets of Helicopters NZ and that, according to operations manager Denis Laird, has delivered a significant cultural change, a more rigorous approach to financial management and contracting - and a mandate to grow.
"There's a huge amount of enthusiasm. We're not hidebound by the past," he said.
And that was reinforced last week with the announcement that HNZ would establish an advanced helicopter training school in Nelson with an initial investment of $1m.
Keith Mullett said a 10-year contract extension with mining company Rio Tinto transferring marine pilots from shore to iron ore vessels in western Australia would result in a change of helicopter type, a $20m investment in new equipment, beginning next year.
"There's a lot of activity there, similar to offshore oil rigs and with the same challenges," Mullett said.
The new deal in the Philippines kicks off in September and was landed through HNZ's existing relationship with Shell in New Zealand which dates back to 1968.
"We're proud of that. It was a hard-fought win against international competition," he said.
"We're well-regarded, well-known and trusted in that space."
Laird said such contracts play to HNZ's strengths, with systems and management processes developed over the years allowing the company to target that type of work.
HNZ is looking to expand further and win new clients who value a "high-quality supplier". Mullett said customers will be "sophisticated procurers looking for more than the cheapest taxi in the rank". They will be looking for a quality, long-term partner.
Geographically, that means Asia and parts of Africa and some investigation of opportunities in South America, he said.
Mature markets such as Europe and the United States, in contrast, feature heavy competition and low rates of growth.
"We're searching for niche areas where we can grow sustainably and make good returns," he said.
However, it isn't just organic growth the new HNZ will focus on. Mullett said acquisitions will almost certainly feature as part of the company's growth strategy.
Laird said the business increasingly requires high levels of technical expertise and finding good people can be a challenge. However, the merging of the two companies has helped create a buzz in the helicopter industry that is seeing talented people attracted to HNZ to further their careers.
Mullett insists the buyout of HNZ is good for New Zealand in that the company hasn't been "gobbled up" and its empowerment taken away.
"The reverse has happened here. 'We like what you do and want you to do more of it'.
"It's not just good for NZ, it's good for the group," he said.

Astronaut Chris Hadfield tweets support for the Toronto Maple Leafs
The Canadian Press
Published Monday, January 7, 2013 5:56PM EST
Last Updated Monday, January 7, 2013 6:44PM EST
MONTREAL - Orbiting Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield may have lost a few fans after tweeting a picture of himself holding a Toronto Maple Leafs plaque.
Commenting on the end of the NHL lockout, Hadfield tweeted from the International Space Station on Sunday he was ready to cheer for the Leafs from orbit.
Professing his support for Toronto did not sit well with a number of hockey fans.
Former Montreal La Presse sports reporter Jean-Francois Begin jokingly warned Hadfield to be careful next time he flies over Montreal.
Hadfield is on a five-month visit to the space station and will become the first Canadian to take command of the giant orbiting laboratory in March.
Former Canadian astronaut Marc Garneau also got into the act. The Liberal MP tweeted Hadfield that he couldn't let his support for the Leafs pass without declaring: "Go Habs Go!"

The odds are that President George Bush will announce a "surge" of up to 20,000 additional US troops in Iraq. But why? Will this deliver a "win"? The answers: a combination of misunderstanding and desperation; and, probably not.
The recent congressional elections - which turned over control of both houses to the Democrats - were largely a referendum on President Bush, and much of the vote reflected public dissatisfaction with the war in Iraq. Most Americans see the US effort as failing, and believe that some different course of action must be taken. Most favour withdrawing forces soon, if not immediately. The report of the Iraq Study Group is widely seen as a formal confirmation of US failure in Iraq.
The country's action there has been the very centrepiece of the Bush presidency. With two years left in office, he would, of course, try to salvage the situation. Many Americans remember the 1975 evacuation of the US embassy in Saigon, with desperate, loyal Vietnamese friends clinging to the skids of the American helicopters. No one wants that kind of an ending in Iraq. And our friends and allies in the region are also hoping for the US to pull some kind "rabbit from the hat", even if it seems improbable, for a US failure would have grave consequences in the region. Iran, especially, is the beneficiary of a failure, and al-Qa'ida will also try to claim credit.
From the administration's perspective, a troop surge of modest size is virtually the only remaining action inside Iraq that will be a visible signal of determination. More economic assistance is likely to be touted, but in the absence of a change in the pattern of violence, infrastructure enhancement simply isn't practical. And if the President announces new Iraqi political efforts - well, that's been tried before, and is there any hope that this time will be different?
As for the US troops, yes, several additional brigades in Baghdad would enable more roadblocks, patrols, neighbourhood clearing operations and overnight presence. But how significant will this be? We've never had enough troops in Iraq - in Kosovo, we had 40,000 troops for a population of two million. For Iraq that ratio would call for at least 500,000 troops, so adding 20,000 seems too little, too late, even, for Baghdad. Further, in a "clear and hold" strategy, US troops have been shown to lack the language skills, cultural awareness and political legitimacy to ensure that areas can be "held", or even that they are fully "cleared". The key would be more Iraqi troops, but they aren't available in the numbers required for a city of more than five million with no reliable police - nor have the Iraqi troops been reliable enough for the gritty work of dealing with militias and sectarian loyalties. Achieving enhanced protection for the population is going to be problematic at best. Even then, militia fighters in Baghdad could redeploy to other areas and continue the fight there.
What the surge would do, however, is put more American troops in harm's way, further undercut US forces' morale, and risk further alienation of elements of the Iraqi populace. American casualties would probably rise, at least temporarily, as more troops are on the streets; we saw this when the brigade from Alaska was extended and sent into Baghdad last summer. And even if the increased troop presence initially intimidates or frustrates the contending militias, it won't be long before they find ways to work around the obstacles to movement and neighbourhood searches, if they are still intent on pursuing the conflict. All of this is not much of an endorsement for a troop surge that will impose real pain on the already overstretched US forces.
There could be other uses for troops, for example, accelerating training for the Iraqi military and police. But even here, vetting these forces for their loyalty has proven problematic. Therefore, neither accelerated training nor more troops in the security mission can be viewed mechanistically, as though a 50 per cent increase in effort will yield a 50 per cent increased return, for other factors are at work.
The truth is that, however brutal the fighting in Iraq for our troops, the underlying problems are political. Vicious ethnic cleansing is under way right under the noses of our troops, as various factions fight for power and survival. In this environment security is unlikely to come from smothering the struggle with a blanket of forces - it cannot be smothered easily, for additional US efforts can stir additional resistance - but rather from more effective action to resolve the struggle at the political level. And the real danger of the troop surge is that it undercuts the urgency for the political effort. A new US ambassador might help, but, more fundamentally, the US and its allies need to proceed from a different approach within the region. The neocons' vision has failed.
Well before the 2003 invasion, the administration was sending signals that its intentions weren't limited to Iraq; Syria and Iran were mentioned as the next targets. Small wonder then that Syria and Iran have worked continuously to meddle in Iraq. They had reason to believe that if US action succeeded against Iraq, they would soon be targets themselves. Dealing with meddling neighbours is an essential element of resolving the conflict in Iraq. But this requires more than border posts, patrols and threatening statements. Iran has thus far come out the big winner in all of this, dispensing with long-time enemy Saddam, gaining increased influence in Iraq, pursuing nuclear capabilities and striving to enlarge further its reach. The administration needs a new strategy for the region now, urgently, before Iran can gain nuclear capabilities.
America should take the lead with direct diplomacy to resolve the interrelated problems of Iran's push for regional hegemony, Lebanon and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Isolating adversaries hasn't worked. The region must gain a new vision, and that must be led diplomatically by the most powerful force in the region, the United States.
Without such fundamental change in Washington's approach, there is little hope that the troops surge, Iraqi promises and accompanying rhetoric will amount to anything other than "stay the course more". That wastes lives and time, perpetuates the appeal of the terrorists, and simply brings us closer to the showdown with Iran. And that will be a tragedy for not just Iraq but our friends in the region as well.

My husband and I are going to Zambia in October and want to plan a budget safari. He was born in Zambia and has not been back for 16yrs and neither of us have ever been on safari. Could you suggest a safari under $150 pp per day? Any other travel tips would also be appreciated.
Zambia safari on a budget

Do a search on "Roccco" and you will get some good pointers. That might be a little light on the budget --- but you know what, if you start a dialogue with some of the camps like Roccco did, you might negotiate yourself a pretty sweet deal. What's the worst that could happen? You may have to pay a bit more per night for fewer nights, but you will have a good safari experience.

For the most bang for your buck, you may want to look at www.chachachasafaris.com.
If you want to splurge a little, but still get great value, you may want to look at Kaingo, www.kaingo.com. Your husband should be able to qualify for local rates, given he was born and raised? in Zambia. I would imagine that he still has documentation such as a birth certificate showing that he is Zambian.
Local rates are often 50% less than tourist rates and you should be able to save a ton of money by using the angle of being Zambian. Use your husbands Zambian heritage for all its worth!

Thanks for the info. My husband is a Zambian citizen and therefore holds a Zambian passport and bc. I appreciate the suggestions to offer this infomation for possible discounts. I emailed Kaingo and mentioned this to them and they offerred a discounted rate from $330 to $250 pppn.
I do however think we have decided to stay at Wildlife Camp for about $100pppn. Not as luxurious as some of the other places but we are sort looking for a more rustic feel while we are in S. Luwangua.
We have not decided on a place to stay when we head to Victoria Falls. We only plan on being there for 2 nights/3 days and would like to stay in a "nice" place as we are celebrating our anniversary. We would like to spend time at the Falls as well as doing some wildlife viewing and maybe a little fishing. We would love to stay at Stanley Safari Lodge but almost $600 a night for accomodations only is a little too much for us. Any suggestions for a place under $200 pppn?
We are considering the following places,
> -Nyala lodge
> -Royal Linvingston
> -Thorntree-lodge
> -Waterfront
> -Zambezi-Chundu
> -Jungle Junction
> -Natural Mystic Lodge
> and if money were not object, Tongebezi or my
> favorite, The Stanley Safari
> Lodge/honeymoon suite.
Comments or suggestions on these or other places to stay would be appreciated.

Every School Should Have a Farm to Feed Its Students
I have always loved working with my hands. It is only now, after five years of farming that I realize I chose to farm as a way to work with my hands every day.
It started in San Francisco, where I worked as an apprentice at Little City Gardens and quickly fell in love with the meditative repetition of working the soil, planting, weeding, repeating. I also fell in love with doing work with a purpose, nourishing others and myself. After eight years in San Francisco, I left to work on rural farms in Oregon and abroad. Those experiences inspired me to make my way as a farmer. After a yearlong apprenticeship at Zenger Farm in Portland, Oregon, I jumped at the chance to start an urban farm with another apprentice, Justin Davidson.
When we first visited the potential site at Candy Lane Elementary in Milwaukie, we found three-quarters of an acre of the schoolyard that had already been cultivated by farmers, along with a high-tunnel, greenhouse, a shed, and 33 raised beds. It was too good to be true! As we started formulating our vision, it became clear that this could be so much more than an urban farm. We could market the produce we grow back to the school cafeteria—building upon the farm-to-institution movement—and we could educate the school children about where food comes from and how to grow it, increasing their positive attitudes about fruits and vegetables and their likelihood of making healthy eating choices. Obesity rates are at all-time high and yet kids are going hungry; there's never been a greater need for an organization that can provide fresh produce to kids and encourage them to think positively about fruits and vegetables. A land-use agreement was signed that gave us free use of the land and water in exchange for educational services. And that's how Schoolyard Farms was born in the early months of 2012.
Our vision for Schoolyard Farms was, and still is, to build farms on every schoolyard that can feed their cafeterias. Unlike Edible Schoolyard and FoodCorps—two admirable organizations that help schools build and maintain school gardens with the support of grant funding and donations—Schoolyard Farms is using a social enterprise model. This will help us generate profit by marketing the produce and hosting fee-for-service programs like a summer camp. We are currently performing a pilot at Candy Lane Elementary, which cultivates a large portion of the schoolyard so we can grow enough food to sell back to the cafeteria and to CSA members, generating revenue to support the school farm. The modern approach we are using is designed to build sustainable school farms, which can be replicated at other schools.
In the last two years, building our little nonprofit with a huge vision from the ground up has been both extremely trying and rewarding. We have accomplished so much on a shoestring budget. Since March of 2012, we have harvested more than 3,000 pounds of produce and sold it to 25 Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) members, SNAP recipients, farmers' markets and Head Start in Clackamas County. We have also engaged more than 300 students in weekly garden-based education; piloted a farm-based summer camp and after-school cooking classes; built partnerships with like-minded organizations, including Green Corps and Clackamas County Soil and Water Conservation District; and recruited community leaders to serve on our Board of Directors. Still, all of those accomplishments have not come without their trials.
Starting a nonprofit from scratch involves a lot more than you might think. In addition to all the systems that need to be developed to start any business, nonprofits need to build a Board of Directors, write bylaws, go through the 501(c)(3) application process, and build community involvement and buy-in. You need to complete these steps before you can receive any major grant or foundation funding. After two years, we have started and completed many of these steps, but building community involvement and buy-in is a slow process. When we inherited this site, some of the neighbors felt strongly that we shouldn't be there; some didn't see the need or the benefit of a school farm and others were put off after the previous farmers left the farm mid-season without removing their crops, blighting the neighborhood with a fallow, overgrown field. Building trust within a community takes time and perseverance. I'm pleased to say we have gained the trust of many of the neighbors and built synergistic relationships with teachers, students, and parents.
We have laid the groundwork for a model that can expand to every schoolyard. You can help us achieve this vision by contributing to our Donation page . We are raising funds for needed infrastructure at our Candy Lane farm and to pay for our 501(c)(3) filing fees. With these funds, we can grow into a sustainable organization that can help build farms on every schoolyard and provide fresh produce for cafeterias.

Syria suicide attack claimed by Al-Qaeda-linked group
|Report an Error
Share via Email
BEIRUT—An Al-Qaeda-linked group fighting alongside Syrian rebels claimed responsibility Monday for a suicide car bombing that reportedly killed dozens of President Bashar Assad's loyalists last week.
Islamic militants have been the most organized fighters battling government troops in the 22-month-old conflict in which more than 60,000 people have been killed. Their growing prominence has fueled fears that Muslim radicals may try to hijack the revolt, and has contributed to the West's hesitance to equip the opposition with sophisticated weapons.
Jabhat al-Nusra, which the U.S. says has ties to Al Qaeda and has declared a terrorist organization, said in a statement posted online that one of its suicide bombers detonated a car bomb last Monday at the headquarters of a pro-government militia in the central province of Hama. It said the bomber drove a truck packed with explosives to the militia's complex in the town of Salamiya and blew himseful up "to give the tyrannical regime a taste" of violence it has been inflicting on the Syrian people.
Activists said at least 42 people, mostly pro-Assad militiamen, were killed in the blast. The government did not say how many people were killed, although state-run SANA news agency published photographs of what it said was a funeral procession for the blast's victims on Wednesday. In one of the photographs, a dozen men are seen standing behind 11 caskets, wrapped into a Syrian flag.
Jabhat al-Nusra has previously targeted government institutions in Damascus with suicide bombers and has led successful attacks on military bases and strategic territory in the country's north.
The suicide bombings are part of the relentless violence that has engulfed Syria since the uprising against Assad began in March 2011.
On Monday, activists said troops were battling rebels in several towns and villages around Damascus, including in Daraya, Arbeen and Zabadani. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the regime's forces also shelled several of the capital's suburbs.
The areas outside of Damascus have been rebel strongholds since the uprising began. In recent months, the rebels have used them as a base from which they have been trying to push into central Damascus, the seat of Assad's power.
In the north, troops clashed with rebels in al-Hasaka province along Syria's border with Turkey, the Observatory said, adding that at least 10 rebels were killed in the fighting that erupted Sunday after the opposition fighters attacked a government checkpoint.
International efforts to stop the bloodshed in Syria have repeatedly failed and both sides fighting in the civil war are convinced they can defeat the other on the battle field.

Kevin Love finished with 11 points and 18 rebounds, and Nikola Pekovic had a 18-point, 12-rebound effort for the Timberwolves.

Summary of the film `Rabbit-Proof Fence (2002)`
The picture "Rabbit-Proof Fence , filmed by the Australian director Phillip Noyce , is based on the book written by the real-life daughter of Molly Craig , the heroine of the film . That film is based on true events makes this drama an especially impressive exploration of the eternal of cruelty of man , this time depicted through the tragedy of separation of children and parents . In this way , being firmly rooted in our true history the film of Phillip Noyce contains in it realistic depiction of important sociological concepts . Let us try to summarize some
of these sociological concepts in the film
On of the most obvious sociological concepts in "Rabbit-Proof Fence " is the concept of race . A race is a group of people biologically different from other humans , mostly in terms of color of skin , features of face and genetics . However , the concept of race is most controversial in its sociological manifestations because belonging to a certain race influences social identity of people . The film highlight this existing racial controversy by reminding us about recents policies that were based at the assumption the inferior and superior races existed , so it was needed to purify the white race
On ground of this , we can see how the concept of social class emerges within society . As social class means the hierarchy of people within a given culture , we can see how the dominant white group in the film creates policies to opress Aboriginal groups . Moreover , as the Aboriginal children who have white fathers are thought to be superior to purely Aboriginal ones , they nevertheless are trained to work only as servants , which further emphasises the structured nature of the division into social classes
The film also manages to illustrate the sociological aspects of the concept of religion . Indeed , as any religion aside from its immediate set of beliefs plays important social function of
