BIBLE MEDITATION: "In those days there was no king in Israel. People did whatever they felt like doing." Judges 17:6 (The Message Bible)
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT: This text focuses on a dark period in Israel's history in which he did not seek or want direction from God. It is an ironic text because it comes in the aftermath of evidence of God's power. In slavery, Israel called upon God and he delivered them and pointed them in the direction of Canaan. At the Red Sea he still pointed them in that direction and made a way for them through the waters. In the wilderness, he gave them the same direction, and fed them for 40 years. At the River Jordan, despite the fears of the military strength of their enemies, he gave the direction to cross over and he brought down the walls of Jericho and gave them victory. Now, in the land the people divided into twelve sectors, each headed by a tribal leader. Without a central voice, each tribe seemed to go in its own direction. Only a few sought direction from God. There was no king of Israel at that time, and the people turned from the mighty God who had brought them out of Egypt and from the laws that he had given them for their own good. They were stubborn and did what they thought was right rather than follow their Father's guidelines. Both Judges 17:6 and Judges 21:25 repeat exactly the same words: "In those days Israel had no king. Each man did what he considered to be right" (NET). Or as the New American Standard puts it, "Each man did what was right in his own eyes." They found deliverance only when they listened to the word of God. It provided the light they needed as the stumbled in darkness. In the word they found God's will. Psalm 119:105 says, "Thy word is a lamp to my feet and a light unto my path." It shows us the path that is "fit" in the eyes of God. Once we are shown that path, the faithful will follow. God provides the vision
ACTION POINT: How do you choose your direction in life? There are many who are traveling paths in life that reflect their own interests or those chosen for them by others. A generation ago a group of brothers known as the Isley Brothers coined a phrase, "It's your thing, do what you want to do." It epitomized what many people believed about choosing life directions; it's my life, I live it the way I choose. Another popular group Sly and the Family Stone reflected acceptance of this idea in their song "Everyday People" in which they said, "different strokes for different folks." Everybody can do their own thing. The poet William Henley caught the spirit of individualism when he wrote his epic poem "Invictus" which said:
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
There are others who go even further, they espouse the ideas of Ralph Waldo Emerson in his treatise "Self-Reliance" in which he taught that each individual should trust himself alone, chart his own course and answer to himself alone. Following these lines of thought many have blazed life trails of their own making without ever once stopping to ask whether that path is the path that God has chosen for them.
The Apostle Paul reminds us that "We are allowed to do all things," but not all things are good for us to do. "We are allowed to do all things," but not all things help others grow stronger (1 Cor. 10:23). Doing what feels good to us at the moment may be a temporary fix, but it doesn't take long for us to learn that, "everything that feels good to you is not always good for you." Following God's directions is always good for us. As Christians, we constantly ask God to give us direction and to guide our path. The steps of the righteous are ordered; so we move at his command.

I am going to be building a fence in the next couple of months for my grandmother. Her neighbor has one that she wants to duplicate, so I can get all of my measurements from that one, except for the custom gate for the driveway. The fence run will be 200' and for the front it will be about 100' with the gate.
Would it be best to build the fence in sections and take it out and set it, then weld it together? Or would you set the 4x4's and build it from there?
What type of paint would you use? The color needs to be black.
Any tools that would make the job a lot easier?
I will be using a millermatic 200.
Thanks in advance.

I need some tip on building a wrought iron fence.They don't call me Lucky for nothin'.
I would set the posts and make the sections to fit between them. Make a jig from a sheet of plywood or glue board to help in welding it up. I like the tractor enamel from the local farm store and some primer. I would paint the bottoms before installing them also...BobBob Wright, Grandson of Tee Nee Boat Trailer Founder

The big problem with prefab is making sure the post are all the same distance apart. A little triming is ok but 2-3" diferent could be noticable depending on the style of fence. Either set the posts as you assemble the fence or make a jig to set the posts. I have a 4'X8' metal frame that I use to set posts for wooden fences. It has no wind resistance and keeps the next post in position while I plumb and brace it if pouring concrete or back filling.
The only other problem I see is if you have a lot of elevation change. You'll either have to be able to wrack the section or build in place. My metal frame is set up so I can wrack it if need be to account for a small hill, and wooden fences wrack no problem, iron fence, well depends on how its built.

Sometimes I spray with the 14oz cans made by LPS that I get from the local hardware store (automotive section). I use LPS for spraying down electrical stuff, works good for me, so I figured I would try the cold galv. It has 95% zinc. If I have more time, I brush it on from a quart can from gaspro (also comes in gallon size). This stuff ain't cheap, but it works for me! The black topcoat is called "Anti Rust" made by Valspar "oil based enamel" That too is expensive, but I haven't found anything else that lasts as long...
hope this helps...I'm not late...

Lucky, if at all possible make your sections at the shop and put it all together on site. Here is a little railing job that I'm working on right now. It is 28'4" long and has a 8'6" side extension. I built the 28' section in 3 pieces and put posts on both sides of the center section and made tabs for the end sections to bolt up together, same with the side piece. Maybe you can do something similar with your rails. As far as paint goes, I am sold on Rustoleum Rusty Metal Primer and then their enamel top coats. In this case it's semi-gloss black.

Cake Ingredients:
- 10 eggs
- 1 cup organic raw honey
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup coconut oil
- 3/4 cup coconut flour, sifted
- 1 tsp baking soda
The cake came out having a spongy texture (resembling the texture of scrambled eggs). The texture was not that of a soft, familiar and delicate wheat-flour based cake. The flavor also was weird. It tasted less chocolately than I expected. The flavor was not bad but it wasn't good either.
Also, the coconut flour cake seemed like sandpaper as it went down my throat. I remember trying raw coconut flour when it first came in the mail and it went down my throat course and dry. It is similar to cornmeal in this regard.
Is it supposed to be like that?

Horror, Suspense/Thriller
In this chilling blood-tale in Psycho style, Robert Bloch modernizes the Lizzy Borden story. A wife (Joan Crawford) literally axes her cheating husband and his lover, witnessed by her three-year-old daughter. Mom is packed off to the insane asylum for 20 years before reuniting with the daughter (Diane Baker). From this point, the axe murders continue along a contrived plot intended to lead the audience astray until the mystery is solved. Crawford's strong performance and the excellently constructed suspense are the best elements of the film -- and the chopping saves the show when the plot tends to slow.~ Lucinda Ramsey, All Movie Guide

I'd take Maclin in a heart beat.
I'd take Maclin in a heart beat.
It's a good question, CK. I think the odds are really good that Miami gets Wallace or Jennings. However, a lot of us felt the same way last year about Manning and we know how that worked out.
Ireland is under pressure to get someone who will step in and perform right away and a rookie wr is unlikely to do that. Let's face it, his job is on the line and another sub-500 finish could do him in.
Not to state the obvious, but we would need to look at teams that have a surplus of wide receivers or a team that is rebuilding and would be okay with sending a veteran for younger players or draft picks.
So saying that, I think a guy like Larry Fitzgerald could be in play.
Arizona is clearly in the rebuilding mode and needs to find a young franchise quarterback before even thinking about taking that next step. San Francisco and Seattle are teams with super bowl aspirations heading into the 2013 season and the Rams are gaining ground. Fitzgerald could bring the Cardinals a lot in return and could be 32-33 before Arizona starts to turn things around. Miami has the picks and the salary cap to make it happen.

for the love of god get a real freaking mike already!!!
if i can get a contract done where in 4 years he's off my books if i want him to be considering he's 26 and in his prime it's a chance i take...
where do people get the maclin is not explosive stuff from b/t...maclins been dinged up a lot in philly...but never have i watched that kid and said he's not explosive...true he's not what he looked like at missouri from an explosion stand point but he's not a possession wr either...his problem imo has been health related in the pros
1.) Not going into last year of contract.
2.) Coming off underwhelming season.
3.) Has high cap numbers going forward.
4.) Was traded for good compensation.
First off, if a guy meets 1-3, 4 probably doesn't apply. It would be relatively low compensation, and I wasn't talking about trading a first rounder for Sidney Rice nor do I think CK was talking about a first for Miles Austin. But how about the trade of Brandon Marshall to the Bears? Wasn't the last year of his deal and he had high cap numbers going forward. His 2011 wasn't underwhelming on the field but was in the locker room.
Then there's DeMeco Ryans. He was traded last year after signing a big deal in 2010. He ruptured his Achilles in 2010 then had a subpar 2011, was asked to take a pay cut (he refused) and was traded to the Eagles for a swap of thirds and a fourth.
I don't buy the necessity of your model of comparisons. It sounds designed not to find relevant examples but to preclude discussion. If a team has good reasons to want to trade somebody and they can find a suitor, then that's all it takes. Those hypothetical conditions are what's being discussed here.

The way the contracts work whatever you pay Mike Wallace in signing bonus and/or option bonus is prorated over the entire life of the contract. If you sign a 5 year deal or a 6 year deal with the man there's no way to have all of the guaranteed money expensed in the first 3 years. Whatever is paid that isn't salary is expensed over the life of the deal.
Vincent Jackson's contract involved 5 years, $55.55 million with $26 million guaranteed. Let's say that's what Mike Wallace wants. Do you do it, or not?
Vincent Jackson's contract will pay him $36 million over the first three years. The last two years involve payments of $19.94 million (provided he makes his workout bonuses). Near as I can tell, if you were to cut him after his third year, his 2015 salary cap figure of $12.402 million (assuming the workout bonus from 2014 was earned) would reduce down to $4.864 million of "dead" money. You'll have paid Vincent $36 million for 3 years of service.
This seems to be the contract Mike Wallace wants to model his own contract after in free agency. The question is whether you'd sign him for the same money.
I say no.

We are very happy with this simple to use coffee maker. We bought it for outdoor use serving concessions at festivals. You have to arrive at least 30 minutes early to get this thing plugged in and warming its water tank up, but once it's warmed up, it makes a very good air pot of coffee pretty darn fast.
We use purified drinking water and our own brand of fresh roasted, high quality coffee, and the coffee comes out of this machine as good as I'd want it--and I'm a coffee snob. The only better cup I've had of my own coffee was making an Americano from an espresso maker, which is nice for home, but not so practical for outdoor festivals.
The working of this machine is very simple, which was actually a little confusing at first...I thought there must be more to it, but it seems this machine depends on simple gravity for its operation: the tank is always full and hot, and when you pour more into the top, however much you poured it creates an overflow, pushing the water through the brewing mechanism. When the overflow is leveled out again, the brewing stops.
We bought the Bunn brand 2.5 liter air pots to go with this machine, and we are very happy with those.

Counting Crows heading to 'Wonderland'
How do you get to Wonderland? Just ask The Counting Crows. The group is bringing an end to a six-year gap between new, original albums with the expected fall release of "Somewhere Under Wonderland."
Now… we know what you're thinking. Yes, the Crows had an album out in 2012 called "Underwater Sunshine," but it was an album of covers alternately titled "Or What We Did On Our Summer Vacation." The band recorded songs by Travis, Dawes, Madonna, Joe Jackson, the Faces, Sordid Humor and others for an eventual release on April 10, 2012. A tour in support of the project followed, including summer 2013 dates with The Wallflowers.
Work began on "Somewhere Under Wionderland" soon after, and now that a release date is near the band is crowing (for lack of a better word) about the new album. Frontman Adam Duritz recently told amNewYork, "The songs (on the album) are written from a completely different perspective. They're a lot more story than confessional. They're very emotional but less personal and confessional. I don't know how to describe it, but it feels a lot different for me."
There are nine tracks on the record, according to Duritz, including an opener that clocks in at 8 1/2 minutes. Lead single "Palisades Park" was released on July 8, 2014 – the band's first single release under Capitol Records. It was promoted by a short film directed by Bill Fishman and filmed in New York City.
Counting Crows is current trekking across North America with Toad The West Sprocket as part of The '1989' World Tour. Those dates wrap in mid-August before the Crows head overseas as part of the EU Tour 2014. They'll play eight shows in the UK before moving on to France, Holland, Germany, Belgium and Italy.
Fans still digging the Crows' live shows (Updated March 28, 2013)
The Counting Crows have hit a bit of a rough patch in the last few years, starting with a split with longtime major label Geffen Records in 2009. The band continued to tour and write new material, but frontman Adam Duritz struggled with mental problems and a prescription drug addiction. He found therapy in solo material, which was released online while various band members also worked on individual projects.
In 2011, Counting Crows turned the corner. First came the long-awaited release of "August and Everything After: Live at Town Hall." The band then returned to the studio to record cover songs and new material, with the intention to release another full-length album. It came in 2012 with the release of "Underwater Sunshine (Or What We Did On Our Summer Vacation)," which bowed in partnership with Creative Allies on a contest for fans to design both the album cover and layout.
To this day, the Crows are renowned for their energetic live performances. Most concerts not only include extended versions of their songs, but extra verses, impromptu additions and other artists' songs featured in the middle of their own material. They are also one of the only artists to actively encourage the recording and distribution of their lives shows, and host a trading network on their website to enable fans to trade concert recordings.
Counting Crows recently came under fire after canceling several New Zealand tour dates after Duritz came down with an illness. It included one gig where the opening act had already performed, and occurred just hours after Duritz had posted a photograph of himself on Facebook and wrote, "Soundchecking ... hey! My voice works! Sweet."

Carl Schmitt, the Dolchstoßlegende and the Law of Armed Conflict
Scott Horton
A scholar reading Carl Schmitt's writings on international law topics today is overcome with a sense of a brilliant but fundamentally flawed mind that undergoes some radical mood shifts. There is the post-World War II Schmitt, carefully offering up cautious, traditional conservative understandings of international public law. There is the Schmitt of the 1930's with his astonishingly adventurous, and downright chilling interpretations in which the totality of international law is consumed, reprocessed and extruded so as to meet the short-term political objectives of the National Socialist Reich. Then there are the works of political theory, starting with Der Begriff des Politischen and developing in Nomos der Erde im Völkerrecht des Jus Publicum Europaeum (1950), which offer a take on international law which, it seems to me, is often difficult to distinguish from the international relations theory approach of Hans Morgenthau. This latter segment in particular helps to explain why Schmitt often seems so uncannily similar to current day Neoconservative writers like John Yoo, Jack Goldsmith and Eric Posner whose analysis is clearly indebted to Morgenthau. It often seems very difficult to reconcile these different manifestations of Schmitt other than by suggesting something very human: that careerist expedience plays a powerful role in the process. This is most evident of his writings in the core period of his advocacy of the interests of the National Socialist state, 1933-37.
I'm trying to tie this wonderful piece to my more immediate and modest goal of better wielding the Schmitt example as a refutation of the Yoo influenced arguments of today's administration apologists. As I read your article I can almost forgive Schmitt his perhaps naive admiration of Prussia's "silver age of efficient and enlightened authoritarianism". Likewise I can forgive Schmitt and all others for arguing that "constitutional ideals and legal concepts of [a nation's] foreign and domestic enemies" impair military and government efficiency. Which is to say I can forgive anyone coming to Yoo's conclusions or parroting his rationalizations---if they haven't read their history. But we know what became of Germany with the help of Schmitt's legal analysis; Germany turned to evil. Nor was Germany the first great example of a nation state to give too much power to, or place too much emphasis on, its military might only to crumble under the weight of oppression or go down in the mire of debauch.
The problem with Yooish thought and the terror laws passed (and in the works) by this administration are not found primarily in the laws themselves, but rather in the people who, looking at what they hope to accomplish with those laws, refuse or are unable to see the evils to which those same laws can be turned. Folks don't much like to think about good and evil these days; the ascendancy of "economic" analysis has foreclosed evaluation by that criteria set for most folks. But maybe it is time to refresh that view. No one can credibly disagree that the systematic wholesale slaughter of six million Jews was evil; there's a starting point. No one can credibly disagree that holding an innocent person for years without even hope of being charged or knowing the evidence against her is evil. And while we rightly shy away from judging evils on some simple linear spectrum, it is still fair, if not fully accurate, to say that the evil of the Holocaust is greater than the evil of wrongly holding one innocent person without due process. Slippery slope reasoning is suspect, but attacks on due process do not slide down a slope to the evils of genocide; rather such attacks plow the soil in which the seeds of fascism can find a fertile home. That is the danger of Schmittian or Yooish thought. It is also the danger of foolishly elevating "economic" or utilitarian analysis to the level seen in early 20th Century Germany, and found in Chicago School economic analysis. Certainly there is much in the Constitution, by whatever means of interpretation one chooses, to support insisting we adhere to criteria sets other than simple utility. Justice, Freedom and Liberty each appear in the Constitution; economy, efficiency and utility are notably absent. Schmitt's prime mistake, then, might simply be a childish preoccupation with the goods of the burgeoning industrial age to the detriment of a non-empirical but epistemologically sounder Good (secular or otherwise) to which we all must answer.
Let me close by saying thanks for another great post, and I sure do envy you the depth of your scholarship.
Beautifully done, Scott.
It made me think of this recent comment by Immanuel Wallerstein, who is worried about the possible rise of a new "stab in the back" political atmosphere. He observes that a U.S. withdrawal from Iraq would represent a second catastrophic military defeat after the one already suffered in Vietnam.
"Withdrawal from Iraq will, I predict, be even more traumatic than the flight from Saigon in 1975. Two defeats will be devastating and also persuasive of the real limits of U.S. power.
"There are really only two possibilities at that point.
"One possibility is that there occurs a sort of profound soul-searching which would lead the United States to reevaluate its self-image, its sense of what is possible in the world-system now and in the future, and what kind of values it really believes in.
"If that happens, maybe forces within the Democratic Party will come forward to incarnate this reevaluation. Or maybe the whole political framework of the United States and its parties will change to reflect such a reevaluation.
"But of course there is a second possibility. It is that the nation is overcome with deep anger about the "loss" of its primacy, will seek scapegoats (and find them), and eventually move in the direction of gutting the U.S. Constitution and the liberties it presumes to defend.
"Something like that happened in Weimar Germany. And while the situation is different in many respects, and while I am not predicting in any sense the emergence of a Nazi party, nonetheless it will be a grievous disaster for the United States and the world if the United States moves to any significant degree in this direction."
The author's reminders and insights are timely. It is too soon to say whether the soil tilled in our own most recent five years is a suitable analog for growth of societal governance ailments of a scope to match the pernicious inaction which yielded Weimar and Weimar's failure. Hopefully, our political system is preparing its legion self cure. But the alarums are abroad.

Regarding this question of Frederican authoritarianism that somehow led to all the destruction and evil that followed. I happened to run into a web site, psychiccorner.com where the ghost of Frederick confronts this question. Here's part.
What do you have to say about the Holocaust?
Frederick: Let's not assign guilt to these countries for the purpose of understanding what really
happened. We are talking about titanic geopolitical forces that are like hurricanes or earthquakes if they are not understood. There must be some explanation why these civilized European countries, could be forced into such desperate circumstances as occurred to all. These countries possessed society and a deep civilization. The events that occurred somehow didn't represent their civilized character, I mean Germans and Europeans in general. This is something important
to remember. Non-Germans need not accept responsibility for the Holocaust although they must accept responsibility for
the lack of common defense to which Europe gave in to, which was the larger cause of the Holocaust. With these things in
mind, one can then begin to examine what was involved and without assigning blame or passing judgement, one can actually
ponder how Europe could have salvaged itself or even prevented what happened.
This was a fantastic article. Really loved reading your we blog post. The information was very informative and helpful...Post a Comment

I liked the pick up, but this year he's gotten on my nerves. When he's on his game, he's a serious threat. Unfortunately, defenses know what they need to do to knock him off his game, which is extremely easy to do. I'm tired of seeing him on the sideline nursing some minor injury and I'm tired of the fumbles. I'm tired of how easily he's taken completely out of the game either by minor injury or stopping him a couple of times early in the game.
The fact that he's our biggest playmaker on offense is just an example of the sad state of this offense. We need consistency, and he's far from that. He also plays a position that any GM worth his salt can replace easily.

Posted in DinoDigs
Recently, paleontologists uncovered the world's oldest fossilized footprints. Found in the Arabian Desert, these tracks proved that prehistoric elephants travelled in herds. The Science Center had the opportunity to interview Dr. Brian Kraatz, one of the researchers on the project to get his perspective.
How do trackways become so well preserved? Don't other animals follow in these paths as well?
Whether tracks get preserved as fossils depends on what happens to the sediments after the animals walked through them. In our case, they walked through a mud plain, which likely dried into a hard surface shortly thereafter. They may have been buried by more sediments shortly thereafter, which kept them safe from erosional process. They were probably re-rexposed sometimes in the last 10,000 years.
What was the Mleisa 1 site like when these creatures were alive? Did it still look like a desert?
It wasn't a desert. Along with the elephant ancestors that made the tracks, we know there were many other animals (e.g., giraffes, crocodiles, fish, ostriches, etc.) that lived in a large river system that was present there around 7 million years ago.
How do you think aerial photography and hi-res satellite data will influence the way we dig for fossils in the future? Will we begin relying more on Google Maps as a tool for paleontology?
We already rely heavily on Google earth and aerial photography. Geologic maps can tell us what types of rocks are present in an area, but satellite imagery tells us where there are exposed rocks from which fossils might be weathering out. We often do a lot of preliminary reconnaissance via Google Earth before we go into the field.
Prehistoric elephants and mastodons lived here in Florida, too, but why doesn't it seem like we find their footprints as often as the researchers in the UAE?
The preservation of fossil footprints is rare, and preservation like we describe in the United Arab Emirates, which included an entire herd of elephants, has never been reported before.
When did you become interested in paleontology, and how did you decide to follow that into a career?
I'm in the minority in that I was never interested in fossils growing up. I started college as an art and english major, but ended up doing a degree in Geology as I liked the challenges of trying to understand past events. After college, I volunteered at a large Natural History museum, and was fortunate enough to work with a paleontologists who mentored me and got me started working on fossils from Mongolia. After that, I was hooked, and went on to receive an MS and PhD in paleontology.

Milwaukee, WI (Sports Network) - Corey Hart hit a pair of solo homers while Martin Maldonando and Taylor Green also homered as the Milwaukee Brewers pounded the San Diego Padres, 9-5, in the first of a three-game set at Miller Park.
Aramis Ramirez had two hits and an RBI and Rickie Weeks also drove in a run for the Brewers, winners in three straight.
"We've had so many different things happen, we have a different lineup almost every day," said Hart. "We just have to stay focused and win as many games as we can."
Shaun Marcum (5-3) gave up three runs on six hits and three walks while fanning six over 6 1/3 innings to earn the win.
Everth Cabrera hit an inside-the-park homer and Cameron Maybin also hit a solo home run for the Padres, losers in five of their last six.
Edinson Volquez (2-6) was pegged with the loss after giving up six runs on six hits and four walks over five innings.
Milwaukee took a 1-0 lead in the first when Hart crushed a lead off homer to right.
But the Padres tied it at 1-1 in the third when Cabrera hit an inside-the-park homer. Cabrera laced a line drive to center and Carlos Gomez attempted to make a diving stab, but the ball bounced under his glove and rolled to the fence.
San Diego took a 2-1 lead in the fourth. With the bases loaded and two outs Marcum walked Cabrera to force in a run.
Milwaukee came back with three in the home half to go up 4-1. Cody Ransom walked and Gomez reached on a fielder's choice to set the table for Maldonando who clobbered his second homer of the season.
The Brewers tacked on two more in the fifth to go up 6-1. Norichika Aoki doubled then stole third before scoring on a Ramirez ground out. Hart opened the frame with his second leadoff homer of the game.
"He tried to go down and in, but left it over the heart of the plate," said Padres manager Bud Black. "He's a big, strong kid and he connected. That was a back breaker."
Maybin's solo homer in the sixth made it 6-2.
Green hit a three-run pinch-hit homer in the seventh to make it 9-2 Milwaukee. Ryan Braun and Ramirez hit back-to-back singles before Green belted his second career home run. Green has hit pinch-hit homers in his last two at-bats.
The Padres scored two in the ninth to make it 9-5. Nick Hundley doubled and Cabrera reached on an error. Logan Forsythe followed with a triple to clear the bases.
Hart has 13 career two-homer games...The Brewers were just 1-for-9 with runners in scoring position and left eight runners on base...Carlos Quentin has a hit in each game he has played in since coming off the disabled list May 28 (eight games). Cabrera's inside-the-park homer was the second in Padres history.

The availability of crowdsourced information is growing rapidly. We live in an increasingly connected world where the majority of citizens are using smartphone and tablet technology. This has enabled a society that increasingly is becoming more vocal and engaged. Citizens are an underexploited resource of deployable human sensors. Crowdsourced data ("people as sensors" recording real-time observations and measurements) are a valuable source of scientific and policy-making information when enhanced with an indication of quality and fused with authoritative data. This workshop seeks to engage and discuss with the scientific community on the use of quality controlled crowdsourced environmental data.
The infrastructure developed within COBWEB will exploit technological developments in ubiquitous mobile devices; crowdsourcing of geographic information and the operational standards based SDI such as the UK Location Information Infrastructure. It will enable citizens living within Biosphere Reserves to collect environmental information on a range of parameters including species distribution, flooding and land cover/use. A main driver will be the opportunity to participate in environmental governance.
To maximize impact, COBWEB will work with standards organizations. Specifically, COBWEB will aim to improve the usability of Sensor Web Enablement standards and GeoPackage with mobile devices, develop widespread acceptance of the data quality approach developed and maximize the applications potential of COBWEB outputs.

Innovative Surveys Offer Precise, Timely View of Poverty
May 4, 2012
- Traditional household surveys used to measure poverty are time-consuming and costly
- Infrequent surveys make it difficult to target the poor in a timely and effective manner
- Economists are developing ways to collect or predict poverty data in real time
WASHINGTON, May 4, 2012 – Measuring poverty in the developing world is no easy task, as the perennial debate over the World Bank's release of poverty statistics can attest.
One challenge is the lag in household data. The most recent and comprehensive global poverty statistics end in 2008, which was four years ago and before the financial crisis shook the world economy.
There is a reason for such delays: Many countries lack the resources or capacity to conduct and publish results of surveys – the collection of data the World Bank depends on to compile poverty statistics.
This, in turn, means that governments and their partners may not be able to target responses to food or economic crises where the help is most needed.
Enter high-frequency surveys, a new and emerging breed of income and consumption surveys that use economic modeling or wireless technology to capture the poverty picture in real time.
"High-frequency data is doing to economics what genetics did to medicine," said Marcelo Guigale, the World Bank's director of economic policy and policy reduction programs in Africa. "We always had economics before which allowed us to do policy and try to solve people's problems, but with high-frequency data we're able to do things we couldn't do before."
Mobile Phone Surveys Give Instant Answers
In 2009, as the global financial crisis took hold, phones started ringing at the World Bank in Washington. Government officials were calling to ask how the economic downturn was affecting the poor in their countries, and how they could best respond.
Amparo Ballivian, a lead economist focusing on the Latin American and Caribbean region, and her team were asked by their director to come up with some answers.
"We had to tell him the truth: We didn't have any data," Ballivian recalled.
A discussion began in her group about how to get data more frequently, Ballivian said, so they would "be able to answer similar requests in the future when we have similar crises."
We always had economics before which allowed us to do policy and try to solve people's problems, but with high-frequency data we're able to do things we couldn't do before.
The idea was hatched to distribute mobile phones that surveyors could call or text on a regular basis to ask questions, 10 during each interview, about employment, violence, hunger, illness and access to social services. Cell phone coverage in Latin America is almost ubiquitous, which made the region a promising experimental ground.
After initial on-the-ground tests in Nicaragua and Peru in 2010, Ballivian's team contracted with the Gallup organization to conduct a six-month pilot study in Peru and Honduras that began in October 2011 and January 2012, respectively. Brightstar, a distributor for the wireless phone industry, donated 1,000 phones that were given to families that needed a phone to participate.
Gallup is running monthly surveys of 1,500 households and so far, the project has yielded some interesting findings.
While incentives such as free airtime appear to boost public interest in the mobile phone surveys, for example, the level of incentive (more versus less free airtime) has not. Participation can also vary significantly from one country to the next.
Results from the survey will be analyzed during summer 2012.
The plan is to scale up the mobile survey project to additional countries in Latin America and the Caribbean later in the year.
Mobile phone surveys will never replace comprehensive household surveys, but they can offer valuable information about what's happening at that moment in people's lives. How many meals did they have today? Has anybody in the family been sick. Were the kids able to attend school in the last week?
There is a definite need for new and inexpensive technology and methodology - especially in countries with significant poor populations, said Jaime Saavedra, director of the World Bank's Poverty Reduction & Equity group. While a typical Latin American country conducted eight annual household surveys in the past decade, he noted, African countries managed two.
An alternative to mobile phones: New methods for estimating poverty
As the push grows to get more timely information about human conditions, World Bank teams are also developing a new methodology to help them estimate consumption levels for years when no regular household surveys are conducted. The model, which uses complex formulas to predict data, is adjusted each time a new household survey is conducted to make sure the margin of error remains acceptable.
This high-frequency, or "proxy," survey methodology was tested in Bangladesh in 2011. The country was chosen for the project because it conducts regular household surveys only every five years, and because the World Bank economist spearheading the methodology, Nobuo Yoshida, already had a good working relationship with officials in Bangladesh.
Yoshida said he's comfortable with the results from the Bangladesh pilot project, and that he will share them with government officials in Dhaka in June. If the meeting goes well, the the government of Bangladesh will incorporate the new methodology in its National Strategy of Developing Statistics, making it part of its regular country monitoring process.
"Our method may not be perfect, but there are other methods out there that also have shortcomings, including the fact that they are more expensive and time-consuming," Yoshida said. "We're using existing data so in that sense, this is very cost-effective."
Yoshida's hope is that the proxy survey methodology, as well as surveys using mobile phones and other innovative technology, will benefit nations as they seek to measure poverty in a timely manner. The ultimate goal for poverty economists such as Giugale, Ballivian and Yoshida is to help governments improve human conditions for their citizens in a world where nearly 1.3 billion people still live in desperate poverty.
