Museum Song Lyrics
You hear them call your name
From your room
Far removed
Don't let 'em use you in, every way
Stay unchained
Around and round you go
They'll never know, what you've seen
Why have you turned away
You can believe, believe in me
Couldn't you try one time
See if they'll run, for a while
It's a solitary star
Shining precious light
Light on me
When I see your eyes
Tell me what you find
But I oughtta know, by now
Did you hear them call your name
From your room
Far removed
I'd only use you in, every way
Stay unchained
It's a solitary star
Shining precious light
Light on me

This film first aired in July 2011.
South Sudan will officially declare independence in July. A new country will be born.Foremost in the long list of challenges faced by the government of South Sudan (GOSS) is the task of creating an inclusive and representative administration among different tribes with a history of bitter enmity.In addition, many see the prospect of South Sudan being rife with corruption soon after gaining independence.Looking back at recent history we will illustrate how the North has exploited and exacerbated existing ethnic tensions in order to divide and weaken southern opposition.Other issues include oil - 98 per cent of South Sudan's governmental income is derived from oil revenues, making it the most oil dependent nation on earth; the possible tensions which could ensue if and when South Sudan decides to abrogate the Egypt-Sudan 1959 Nile Water Agreement; and the ongoing potential for conflict across the North-South divide, as SPLA forces watch their northern counterparts on the other side of the narrow frontline.

It is, as I type this, only a few hours since the polls closed, and this graphic is not the result of Britain's General Election. It is merely a guess, based on asking people just after they had voted who they voted for. But, for what it's worth, here it is:
I found it at the Guido Fawkes blog, which has been the pair of spectacles, as it were, through which I have mostly been viewing this now-concluded election campaign.
I have learned the hard way that what I hope for and what will happen in elections are not the same thing, not least because I tend to choose my electoral spectacles on the basis of pleasure rather than mere enlightenment. But the story told in the above graphic is very close to what I was and am hoping for, given the plausible possibilities or likelihoods that it made sense to be choosing between.
(What I would have liked, in a perfect, parallel-universe and wholly implausible world, would have been an election in which candidates were falling over themselves to offer swingeing tax cuts and competing about who could close down the most government departments and slash and burn the most in the way of government spending. All this, while the voters all stood around jeering, and saying: "Yeah, they say they're going to slash and burn the public sector, but do they really mean it? They would say that, wouldn't they?" Dream on, Micklethwait.)
The TV broadcasters have now been saying, for several hours now, that the Conservatives are doing significantly better than had been expected but not well enough to be truly happy because destined to occupy more Parliamentary seats than everyone else put together, that the Scottish Nationalists are engaged in sweeping Scotland and annihilating the Scottish Labour Party thus causing Labour, who are not doing well in England anyway, to do very badly indeed in the UK as a whole, that the Lib Dems are taking a hammering everywhere, and that the UK Independence Party is going to get a small mountain of votes, including a great many from Labour, but only a tiny molehill of seats.
The biggest story, as I watch my telly in the small but getting bigger hours of Friday morning, is the electoral earthquake (choose your preferred geological or climatological metaphor) that is erupting, exploding, sweeping across, engulfing, swamping, blah blah blah, … Scotland.

"Excellent stay. The owner was welcoming, prompt, and gracious. The space was everything we could hope for - very clean, modern, excellent amenities, quiet, and walking distance to excellent restaurants and shops. The apartment had everything we could have wanted from a spa-like bathroom to laundry detergent and plastic wrap to extra towels, blankets, etc. After a day of sight seeing, it felt like home when we returned.

"What a wonderful place! I had to stay in Albuquerque for 4 weeks. This Casita became my home away from home. It was perfect for my wife and daughter. Richard helped to make our stay great. He has equipped the place with everything that you could need. We enjoy cooking. The kitchen was perfect and included all the necessary items to make a great meal. It was quite warm during our stay. The A/C provided much needed relief. I also needed internet access for work. The internet was reliable and fast. We even streamed movies at night. The Casita is conveniently located. While at work, my wife and daughter were able to explore and find many wonderful nearby sights.

At age nine, Cameron Johnson started an Internet company.
Pete Amico quit his job on his first day because he didn't feel like taking orders from his boss.
Greg Herro built a successful business selling diamonds made from the carbon extracted from ashes.
If any of these people remind you of yourself, you just might have the kind of personality to take the small business world by storm.
In If at First You Don't Succeed..., Brent Bowers, the small-business editor for the New York Times reveals the eight patterns that highly successful entrepreneurs share – and what we can learn from them.
Brent Bowers, in covering small business for decades at the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times, has chronicled the rise and fall of hundreds of start-ups. In If at First You Don't Suceed…, he analyzes the common characteristics shared by dozens of successful small-business owners and their companies. Drawing on extensive interviews and research, as well as on the experiences and expertise of business consultants, venture capitalists, academics, and the entrepreneurs themselves, he describes the key traits that successful entrepreneurs have in common.
Among them:
• The ability to spot and seize opportunities
• An overwhelming urge to be in charge coupled with a gift for leadership
• The flexibility to come up with creative, out-of the-box solutions to problems or obstacles
• Incredible energy and tenacity in the pursuit of their goals
• Unwavering faith in their business
• The ability to take smart risks
• The ability to bounce back from setbacks and see failure as just one step on the path to ultimate success
For anyone thinking about starting a business, or attempting a start-up a second or third time, this book offers invaluable lessons and insights.

Chapter One
Chapter 1
Seizing Opportunities
Entrepreneurs notice things.
They spot opportunities nobody else has seen and seize them. It sounds simple enough, but it is an aptitude most people lack. Ask yourself: Would you have figured out how to make a windfall out of an aging laundry plant during a construction moratorium in Princeton, New Jersey?
J. Robert Hillier did.
Hillier, the founder of Hillier Architecture, the fifth-largest architectural firm in the United States, is always on the lookout for arcane property deals. Successful as his architecture business is, it accounts for only 10 percent of his income. The rest comes from real estate.
His first big venture was his purchase a quarter century ago of a beat-up cinderblock building that housed a dry cleaning and laundry establishment. The company was going out of business, and Hillier saw right away that once it was fixed up, it might be converted into apartments.
Trouble was, Princeton's sewer system had reached its limit, and the city had imposed a moratorium on real-estate construction until a new system could be built. Hillier, however, came up with a way around that. "I found out that the laundry pumped out 9,000 gallons of wash water a day," he recounts. "So I went to the health board and asked, 'If I buy the building andclose it down permanently, could I build eleven townhouses that collectively would release only 2,200 gallons?'" They readily agreed, so he took the proposal to the zoning board, which approved it. "I sold all eleven townhouses before we broke ground, for $97,000 apiece," he says. (He can't help adding ruefully that today, they are selling for about $1 million each.)
Hillier is always keeping an eye out for angles. Not long ago, he learned that the guy who ran a repair shop for the town's garbage trucks was retiring. Hillier knew there was a lot of demand for singles housing in downtown Princeton. He also knew the building in question had big iron trusses seventeen feet high, meaning you could fit two floors in it. He bought the building, got zoning approval to turn it into tiny loft apartments, and built sixteen of them. He rented them for $2,000 a month (an average of $48 a square foot, 50 percent higher than the most expensive office space in Princeton).
"That's how entrepreneurs make money, doing little things like that, leveraging them by the multiplier effect," Hillier says. "Maybe the important attribute of the entrepreneur is working at things in an unconventional way and seeing opportunity in doing so."
You want unconventional? Greg Herro has found a business opportunity in cremated human remains that has to rate high on anybody's list of creative thinking. Herro and his buddies found a gold mine in them. Or, more accurately, a diamond mine.
Herro's company, LifeGem, in Elk Grove Village, Illinois, extracts the carbon from the ashes of corpses and turns it into diamond jewelry. Macabre? Herro doesn't think so, and neither, clearly, do his customers.
The way he sees it, LifeGem's concept is a cosmic breakthrough in the way society disposes of corpses. In the million years or so that our species has walked the planet, humans have mostly either buried or burned their dead. Herro believes his company has come up with another alternative: bejewel your body with them.
Looking for unconventional solutions is an old habit with Herro. In high school, for example, he discovered that one of his teachers always asked questions based solely on captions under pictures. Thenceforth, he always got an A in her class.
In 2000, after selling a computer consulting company he had started seven years earlier, Herro was looking for something else to do. Then a friend, Rusty VandenBiesen, came to him with an interesting proposal. VandenBiesen had been watching a TV show about diamonds and had learned two important facts: Carbon is the building block of life, and diamonds are made out of carbon. So why, he wanted to know, couldn't they create diamonds from human carbon?
Herro bought into the idea at once. "As Einstein once said, 'If an idea does not at first seem insane, it has no hope,'" Herro points out.
Each of the four partners sank $25,000 into the venture, but it was Herro who did most of the legwork in the beginning--doing research into the technology of turning human carbon into diamonds, putting together a business plan, raising money, and recruiting a Russian-speaking associate as a contact to Russia's diamond industry--while the other three continued holding down their jobs. Today, he holds the CEO title at LifeGem (he is seen as the guy who can get things done), while his three co-founders--Rusty VandenBiesen, Rusty's brother Dean, and Herro's brother Mike--report to him.
The gift for detecting--and grabbing--unique moneymaking opportunities that have somehow eluded everybody else lies at the center of entrepreneurs' mental universe, according to academics and other experts. It is the most basic test of anyone's entrepreneurial mettle. If you lack it, all the drive, passion, quick-footedness, and smarts in the world won't bail you out of a life of professional servitude.
"The defining trait of entrepreneurs is that they notice things," says William J. Dennis, senior research fellow at the National Federation of Independent Business's NFIB Research Foundation in Washington, D.C. "They see opportunity. They smell it. Take the guy who came up with the absolutely simple idea of cargo containers for ships. He had been driving products to the dock and dumping them off. Somebody else would have to load them onto the ship. And he thought, 'Why not just leave the container?'"
Other examples Dennis cites include the paint roller, invented by Norman Breakey of Toronto in 1940; the Jersey barrier, the concrete separator used in narrow highway medians; and the marketing genius behind the Vermont Teddy Bear Company, who realized that you don't have to sell teddy bears as toys, you can sell them as alternatives to candy and flowers.
Tim Faley, managing director of the Samuel Zell & Robert H. Lurie Institute for Entrepreneurial Studies at the University of Michigan's Ross School of Business, has his own favorite examples. One is Henry Ford's famous inspiration to adapt the assembly line to automobiles. Another, lesser-known example is a Japanese company's development of a technology that reduced the range of its golf balls by half. This meant that people could give the ball the same energetic whacking on small courses as on large ones--a winner in a country with a dearth of real estate.
It is important to note that the process of exploiting untapped opportunity comes in two parts: perception and action. How many times have you come up with brilliant ideas that never went anywhere beyond dinner-table conversation or idle late-evening fantasies?
"A friend of mine coined the phrase 'Entrepreneurs are dreamers who do,' and I think that is what sets them apart," says Judith Cone of the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation. "Simple desire, or some catalytic event, puts them on this journey of tremendous work that requires commitment, stubbornness, perseverance, and the ability to live within paradoxes."
Guy Kawasaki, the managing director of Garage Technology Ventures in Palo Alto, California, an early-stage venture capital firm for high-technology companies, has listened to hundreds of pitches over the years. He says it is not uncommon to meet Ph.D.'s "who've been thinking and thinking and thinking for years but never actually starting doing anything." The trick, he says, is to stop thinking and start doing. Tom Peters, the bestselling business writer, he notes, called this "a predisposition for action."
Like Dennis and Faley, Kawasaki says business innovators often hit pay dirt just by taking a fresh approach to the obvious. "Take Apple's iPod," he says. "It had a better industrial design" than earlier-model MP3 players, "but that isn't rocket science. The product was tightly integrated with online sales, and that wasn't anything new. Anybody could have done both things at once, but no one did."
Opportunities like this aren't always out of reach for the general public. In the early days of the Internet, how many people had the bright idea of starting an online auction house? Quite a few, probably--and Cone was one of them. She and a girlfriend used to sit around and talk about creating an Internet marketplace that resembled today's eBay. But while they were talking, Pierre Omidyar and his collaborators were out doing: raising money, getting licenses, hiring people, and building a business model.
Faley has witnessed the same distinction between cafe chatterers and down-in-the-trenches doers. "I think of entrepreneurs as gladiators," he remarks. "They don't want to talk about the theory of sword wielding. They want to do battle. They want to be down in the arena and making the mistakes and getting dirty."
Before he came to the Zell Lurie Institute, Faley started the University of Michigan's technology-transfer office in engineering. Over the course of three years, this office produced ten companies, including an Internet-security company called Arbor Networks that was launched "right at the tail end of the dot-com revolution but before anybody really cared much about security."
The founder, Farnam Jahanian, was a researcher in computer networking "who could not quit worrying about the issue once he had written his paper," Faley recalls. "He was like, 'I can't walk away from this. I know what the answer is. I have to move it forward.'" He persevered, and the company is flourishing today.
William D. Bygrave, the Frederic C. Hamilton Professor of Free Enterprise at Babson College, outside Boston, argues that older people, like older companies, are less likely to spot and seize opportunities than younger people or start-ups. "If you know too much, the liability of sameness, the liability of staleness, the liability of knowing too much can blind you," he says. "Someone with the optimism of youth knows enough to know what can be done, but not enough to know that it can't be done."
"I did raise venture capital in the late sixties," he says. "The innocence of youth! The optimism of youth! Had I known then what I know now about venture capital, I would never ever have tried to get it. Finding VC funding is rarer than becoming a professional athlete. Lucky I didn't know that."
Bottom line: Let your imagination run a little wild. Entertain nutty ideas. Look for business angles wherever you go. Frank Landsberger, a onetime business owner, venture capitalist, and university professor whose latest gig is investment banking (as managing director at CRT Capital, the largest privately held investment bank in the United States), considers entrepreneurs asocial, in the sense that they reject conventional wisdom. For example, conventional wisdom said the U.S. Postal Service worked just fine, but the founders of FedEx undercut that notion and built a huge business on doing something the post office never thought of trying: guaranteeing next-day delivery.
The wonderful thing is that entrepreneurs don't have to come up with a brand-new technology, Landsberger says, just a different approach. "Look at the iPod," he comments. "Apple just packaged existing technology in a clever way. The MP3 player--here was something the younger generation could really get into, and it was packaged in a way that made it a status symbol."
People can have a breakthrough vision in low-technology areas, too. If you start a bridal shop, Landsberger says, you are buying yourself a job. If you plan to launch a nationwide chain of bridal shops, you are buying yourself a vision. (Funny he should say that--two of the people featured in this book are sisters who plan to launch the first nationwide chain of bridal shops.)
"Or look at Toys 'R' Us," Landsberger adds. "Same old toys, but it was a breakout idea to sell only toys and almost every toy you can think of at a discount and at high volume."
But let's face it--high-tech is usually better. At least it was for Peter Amico, who spotted an opportunity to introduce sophisticated naval technology to the commercial market.
Amico is the founder of Airtrax, a company in Blackwood, New Jersey, that makes one of the weirdest, most innovative contraptions you've probably never heard of: omnidirectional vehicles. These machines roll along on four independently operated wheels, controlled by a joystick. By controlling wheel speed and rotation, either forward or reverse, the operator can move the vehicle laterally or diagonally, instead of swinging it around the way you would with a car. The vehicle simply stops going forward and moves sideways. You can even make them rotate full circle without leaving their spot. Amico loves showing off his first progeny, a forklift called the Sidewinder, to hot-shot executives at giant corporations, then watching them behave like boys in an amusement park. When he showed it to the vice president of Timken Company, a $4.4 billion maker of bearings and specialty steels in Canton, Ohio, the executive whizzed around the factory floor before pronouncing the vehicle a "disruptive technology" because it was so innovative it was going to redefine the market. "About forty other executives were lined up to take their turn," Amico recalls. "I joked I was going to charge them 25 cents a ride."
Amico didn't invent the technology; it was just hanging out there, waiting to be plucked by the first risk-taking opportunist who happened along. The U.S. Navy had bought it from a Swedish inventor and experimented with it for fifteen years, using five direct-current servo motors that cost $4,500 apiece, or $22,500 per vehicle. Not worth the price, the Navy concluded.
Since the technology was declassified, the Navy opened it to commercial exploitation. Several companies took a look but gave it a pass, for the same reason: too expensive. If only much cheaper alternating-current motors did the trick.
It was that "if only" that Amico bet his future on. The Navy sold the technology to Airtrax for $2,500 as part of a so-called Cooperative Research and Development Agreement.

Apple's tiniest tablet is an overdue upgrade.
Up for preorder on Kickstarter right now (though only for the US), a smaller version of 3 Squares' Tim3 Machin3 multi-cooker promises settings for rice, yogurt, quinoa, oatmeal, steam-cook and slow-cook.
Pricing not available
Bose SoundLink Mini II remains one the few standout products in the ultracompact wireless speaker category, featuring a top-notch design and very good sound for its tiny size.
The Philips Shoqbox Mini Bluetooth speaker earns high marks for its rugged design, dual-firing driver, and an impressive ability to reach loud volumes without distortion.

While its sealed-case limitations will turn off power users, Apple's least expensive Mac delivers a solid OS X experience in a compact box with similar performance to the entry-level MacBook Air and iMac models.
The Harman Kardon Esquire Mini is a great-looking micro Bluetooth speaker that works quite well as a speakerphone, but is bass-challenged, so it isn't much of a music speaker.
Pricing not available
Aleph Objects' new $1,350 LulzBot Mini 3D Printer promises to print fast, be easy to use and support all different types of filaments.
Pricing not available
X-mini's first non-capsule speaker is a pretty good effort, but it's a little too pricey when compared to the Creative Sound Blaster Roar, which also has an active subwoofer.
Typical price: $299.00
It has more power than any JCW that came before, but also a fair bit more polish. Is that a good thing?
Pricing not available
One of 2013's best, the iPad Mini 3 is still a compelling choice despite the lack of upgrades. However, the nearly identical and significantly cheaper iPad Mini 2 is a smarter buy.

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — Steve Spurrier has said several times that No. 9 South Carolina has plenty of good players, just no one knows it yet.
The Gamecocks coach better hope that's especially true in the secondary where the club enters the season without last year's lockdown standouts Victor Hampton and Jimmy Legree — and will lean heavily on freshmen Chris Lammons, Wesley Green and Al Harris Jr. to rotate into the mix this fall.

Are you planning a trip? While looking for eco-friendly flights is important, think about when you arrive at your destination. Choose hotels that employ local residents. Tell the staff you don't need towels and sheets changed every day. Eat at places that serve locally grown foods. Remember: be a traveler, not a tourist!
Haven't cleaned the piglets bedroom or their loo as need to work on my car to get round the sheep. Piggies will have to play in the garden while I try and sort the leak in the car. Invited my friend round for tea, she has no kettle at pressent, no prob. here my car will soon boil up water! Wish we had a reliable garage around here that won't turn you over! As a rule I'm up to scratch but today, well, anyone visiting will find me in a mess! Have a cuppa and start again. Now what did the prediction for Sag's say for today?
Have a good day folks, don't envy you if it's a good one! :0)

Ely, Cambridgeshire
Real reviews, from customers like you.
The boat was a little on the small side but it was great experience and we will do it again prefably with a bigger boat.
Excellent holiday break away from the hectic lifestyle one faces nowadays. Peaceful river with plenty of wildfowl and, when needed, pubs for meals! Visited 3 main towns on the route and enjoyed the historical aspect of them too! Boat was just what we needed and very easy to handle. Boatyard staff great and very helpful. The river guide/map book included was excellent and very helpful too.
Had a lovely time, boat was small so perfect for two people. Lovely scenery and met lots of nice people at the locks. Easy to moor up and pop into a town or pub or find a quiet spot to stop for the night. Loved the holiday, it was our first time on a cruiser, very relaxing.
If you want a holiday that is relaxing from the minute you arrive this is for you.
We picked up the boat had a briefing and set off.
Bridge Boatyard were very friendly and helpful and we look forward to going back soon - maybe 2 weeks next time though.
Excellent response by boat yard when we had a self inflicted problem - service could not have been better. Super weather and location made it a lovely short break which we will repeat next year
We have hired from Bridge Boatyard for 8 years now and have always enjoyed the sheer peace of the Ouse and it's tributaries compared to the Broads where we live and sail.
The Broads has become far too noisy and over commercialised with specific regard to motor cruisers running their engines whilst moored and ruining the tranquillity. Please could you ask that your boatyards encourage hirers to shower etc while cruising.
We have our own sailing boats on the Broads and will moor as far away from motor cruisers as we can. Once we were moored at Thurne and then a cruiser subsequently moored very close to us, turned their TV on and continued to run their engine with all the fumes going straight into our yacht. We had to move, I don' think this is fair. It is not the fault of the hirers but of the boatyards who actually tell them to run their engines whilst moored. There is a rule on the Ouse, no running of engines whilst moored from 8pm to 8am. This would help on the Broads but I think running engines whilst moored should be altogether banned; I think there is a byelaw to this effect.
Sunseeker 1 was great but we propose to hire Sundancer next year as the layout is better for us now we are in our sixties.
Congratulations to the boatyard for a fantastic holiday every year and we will be in touch about next year in due course.
Basic boat but performed without any problems and fine for two people. Friendly staff and superb cruising area. Thanks
would book again but would take slightly larger boat, quite cramped inside at the end of each day
Really helpful team at the boatyard, very enjoyable break.
Great boat, helpful boat yard. Beware non returnable deposit will add to the price of the boat.
Great starter boat, easy to handle, location was quite good, ,blat can be slightly cramped depending on size of individual.

I drive across the Brownville bridge frequently and wonder if there are people out there who really trust that bridge.
I see cars hesitating to cross when cars are backed up on the bridge. When trucks cross, I believe I can see the structure vibrate a little.
Time for repair as the paint blisters and rust become the predominant colors.

It has been sometime since I've updated for the Kiva Fellows blog. As cliché as it is lots has happened and I've promised a more in depth description of the impact of the post-election crisis on micro-finance. So in baseball terminology I offer a double header (or double-dip in the vernacular of the dugout). I wanted to separate the entries. This one is about my field partner. Below is an entry more specific to the violence and its impact on three remarkable women. I've been in Africa for two months and I thought I'd finally share more about my field partner, Opportunity International...Continue Reading >>
The last several weeks I've been traveling all over West Kenya visiting groups in the branch offices of OI-Wedco to do journal updates. I return back to Kisumu with a deeply somber heart. A few weeks ago in Kakemega I met two Kikuyu single mothers from a Kiva funded group. They told me about how they lost everything after the post-election violence. During the turmoil their shop and clothing stock was burned because of their tribal background. They fled to an IDP (internally displaced persons, essentially refugees in their own country) camp run by the UN and stayed for five months. They...Continue Reading >>
I've had a pretty frustrating day here in Beirut. To those who plan on traveling, a bit of advice…don't loose your passport. Especially not in Lebanon. I felt like I was trapped in that scene from Battle of Algiers where Colonel Mathieu is unceremoniously perched atop his desk answering the questions of reporters either with an endless moral treatise or a flippant plume of smoke from his Gauloises and a shake of his head. Afan in the background blowing thick air around around the office, a woman in the corner pecking at a typewriter from the 20′s… Except in my...Continue Reading >>
Well, I'm back in the U.S., which means back to the old grad-student-grind. (There is, however, the new excitement of teaching French 1 for the first time here in Beautiful Berkeley, where I have hardly seen a cloud since my return.) I've had a few things to finish up for my Kiva fellowship in Senegal, though, since my last week in the field was spent… in the field. We ran around trying to pack as many interviews as we could into the last few days; but, as if to mock our efforts at productivity, fate struck me with a quick bout of travel-related...Continue Reading >>
In Hanoi the tourist stalls in the old quarter are crammed with all manner of trinkets for tourists to buy.

On August 24th I left Dar es Salaam for a 3-week trip to central Tanzania to train BRAC branches on Kiva in three other regions. Here's a glimpse into the first 11 days of my 21 days on the road:
Day 1:
Seven hours on the bus from Dar es Salaam to Dodoma has kicked off with a traveling saleswoman making her pitch for soaps, toothpastes, and aloe vera at full volume to the entire bus for at least 30 minutes.

I couldn't really decide how to start this blog. I'm a bit new to the business. I always assumed blogs were just a bit pretentious unless you had something terribly important to say, but now that I have to write one of these things for my Kiva fellowship, I think I'm growing into the idea. Maybe it's because now I have something important to say. Was that a touch of prentention? Alas, let's just hope that someone reads these… Ahlan wa sahlan! I'm JJ. I'm a Virgo, I like fitted hats, and I recently decided that the best way to put off making...Continue Reading >>
I have eaten more in the past six days than in my previous five weeks in Bolivia. Cochabambinos pride themselves on living in the eating capital of Bolivia, and the third question people ask you after "What's your name?" and "Where are you from?" is usually "How do you like the food?" The local specialty is pique, a big pile of beef, chicken, sausage, hot dogs, tripe, chicharrones, hard-boiled eggs and udder (udder!) stacked 8-12 inches high on a bed of french fries. Ronny and Paola, AgroCapital's Credit Manager and...Continue Reading >>

I believe I am the last of the Kiva Fellow 5 Class reporting for duty, but don't quote me on that, and I just can't believe I am here after all those months of jealousy and admiration from reading the other fellow's blogs and notes from the field.

Vermont Gas raises Phase 2 price tagAugust 03,2014Vt. Gas increases
Phase 2 price tag
BURLINGTON Less than a month after raising the estimated cost of Phase 1 of a natural gas pipeline project by 40 percent, Vermont Gas has announced that the Phase 2 cost is going up as well.
Phase 1, from Chittenden County to Middlebury, is under construction now. The company hopes to follow that up with Phase 2 from Middlebury to the International Paper plant in Ticonderoga, N.Y., with an extension under Lake Champlain.
The paper company is paying most of the cost of Phase 2, and that applies to the $10 million cost increase as well.

Indian Heart Surgeon Took Talents Home
By AMY WALDMAN
Published: May 18, 2003
NEW DELHI— Taken out of context, it looks like Naresh Trehan is playing a video game. He stares intently into a console at a three-dimensional image, his feet pressing on pedals, his hands maneuvering levers.
But in this case, context is everything. On a television screen several feet from Dr. Trehan, a heart, embedded in gelatinous tissue and blood, throbs insistently. Several feet farther still, lies the body that is home to the heart, on which Dr. Trehan is, at this moment, operating.
He moves a lever, and on the screen, a robot's claw lifts the internal mammary artery, soon to be joined with the coronary artery in a single bypass. Dr. Trehan is providing the brainpower by remote control. Two robotic arms with tiny hands, inserted through two small incisions in the torso, and a tiny camera inserted through a third, are doing the work.
When he moves the controls inches, the robots move micromillimeters, with more precision and steadiness than the human hand.
''Like going to the moon,'' Dr. Trehan said of the procedure.
Minimally invasive robotically controlled cardiac surgery is the latest frontier in heart surgery. It is slowly catching on in the United States, as doctors and industry work to bring the cost down and the clinical value up. But this is India, where those who can afford it have been accustomed to going abroad for state-of-the-art care, often provided by Indian doctors who have migrated themselves. Dr. Trehan was one of them. He went to the United States in 1969, and by the mid-1980's was earning over $1.5 million a year as a Manhattan heart surgeon.
But then he did what few Indian doctors do: he came back, prompted largely by the Indians who kept showing up on his operating table and asking why they could not get the same quality of care back home. He was driven, he said, by ''a certain amount of arrogance -- a kind of national pride.''
''I could do things better than most of my American counterparts,'' he said.
He decided against practicing in an established hospital and found an industrialist to finance his vision of a private heart institute and research center in New Delhi. The Escorts Heart Institute and Research Center opened in 1988. Today it is among the largest of its kind in the world, with 325 beds, 9 operating theaters and satellite operating rooms in five cities -- although that means little in a nation of a billion people.
At 56, Dr. Trehan may be the most prominent heart surgeon in the country. He has won just about every award India gives for citizenship and service. He has operated on almost every major political figure or businessman and he counts many of them as friends.
Everyone wants him. One man, accused of helping to bilk the Delhi Development Authority in a land scheme, has petitioned the court to have Dr. Trehan perform his heart bypass.
Escorts also draws Indians and others from abroad to New Delhi, by bringing the most advanced technologies and techniques here. It is only the second place in Asia, after Japan, to perform robotic surgery. It has done about 50 robotic surgeries since December, moving cautiously because the procedure is costly and the technology still evolving.
On some fronts, Dr. Trehan has far outstripped the West. Most American cardiac surgeons still hesitate to perform ''beating heart'' surgery, which does not require stopping the heart or using a heart-lung machine. The procedure reduces trauma to the body but is challenging to perform. Escorts has done about 10,000 beating heart surgeries, including 4,000 last year alone, putting it in the top tier worldwide for this procedure.
The center devotes 10 percent of its income to free care for the poor and subsidizes care for government employees, members of the military and retirees. Staff members in its mobile echocardiogram van see 100,000 villagers a year.
Dr. Trehan said that when he returned to India, after almost two decades abroad, with his wife, Madhu, and two daughters, he found that ethics and family values that shaped his youth had been corroded. Corruption was everywhere; prominent families were at each others' throats over money. The things he held dear, which he found absent in America, were disappearing in India, too.
This interplay with America and the West is one of the narratives of modern India. In the area of heart disease, Dr. Trehan observed, the two countries are finding they have more in common than they think.
''For many decades we were living by the myth that heart disease was a disease of corrupt, money-minded Western societies,'' he said. But in the last 20 years, he said, studies have shown that Indians are about twice as prone to coronary artery disease as Americans. By 2020, half of all deaths here are expected to be heart-related.
On a recent morning, the doctor, in scrubs, strode into a state-of-the-art operating room. It had no corners or protrusions, to prevent the collection of bacteria; in the wall was a one-touch, computerized angiogram display. He checked in on a surgery, peering at the open chest. The surgeons around the patient straightened up in an almost military stand-at-attention stance. He prompts a similar reaction everywhere within Escorts' immaculate premises.

I have a tab bar controller with five buttons. That controller has a tab view controller.
The tab view controller should behave differently depending on the tab being pressed.
For example, if the tab is "location", then the displayed data should be sorted based on location. If the tab is "alphabet", then the view should be sorted based on the alphabet.
I have this code in the view controller
[super viewDidLoad];
[BNUtilitiesQuick parseXMLFileAtURL:@"http://example.com/BusinessSerialized.xml"];
[BNUtilitiesQuick UtilitiesQuick].BizsToDisplay = [BNUtilitiesQuick searchObjectsInContext:@"Business" :nil :@"Title" :YES];
NSLog(@"%@",[self tabBarController]);
if ([[self tabBarController]selectedIndex]==0)
NSLog(@"%d",[[self tabBarController] selectedIndex]);
// Do any additional setup after loading the view from its nib.
[[self tabBarController] selectedIndex] works, except for one problem. Rather than giving the current selected index, it's the previous index.
Say I am now selecting tab 0, and I click tab 4; that
NSLog() will display 0.
How can I solve this? I want to know the tab being pressed.

Attorney General John Swallow 'blown away' by Utah House investigation
First-of-its-kind panel should expect to be sued, attorney warns
"You're making history," Fellows said. "There really hasn't been anything like this investigative committee before."
Maryann Martindale, executive director of the Alliance for Better Utah, expressed frustration at the investigation's slow pace. Better Utah filed a complaint with the state alleging Swallow broke state campaign finance laws. It also alleges professional misconduct in a Utah State Bar complaint.
"It's just dragging on," she said. "He's being investigated every which way and it just continues to erode the public trust."
Swallow is under investigation at several levels of government.
The Department of Justice Public Integrity Section is investigating Swallow's relationship with indicted St. George online marketer Jeremy Johnson and imprisoned businessman Marc Sessions Jenson.
Johnson claims Swallow helped broker an attempt to bribe a U.S. senator to thwart a federal investigation into Johnson's Internet company. Jenson contends Swallow sought a stake in a failed luxury resort project in exchange for favorable treatment by the attorney general's office.
"Why is the media and the Legislature giving so much credence to allegations of these types of people?" Swallow said.
In addition to the DOJ, Salt Lake County District Attorney Sim Gill and Davis County Attorney Troy Rawlings are conducting a joint investigation into Swallow and his predecessor Mark Shurtleff.
The lieutenant governor's office hired the law firm Snell & Wilmer to look into whether Swallow broke state campaign finance laws. The first-term Republican also is the subject of two Utah State Bar complaints.

False Dawn sounds scary from the ad and reviews.
Leaked IPCC Draft Report: Recent Warming Is Manmade, Cloud Feedback...
"The draft 2013 Fifth Assessment report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change leaked this week makes clear inaction on climate change would be devastating to modern civilization. The report finds that the human fingerprint on climate has grown more obvious, concluding "it is virtually certain" the energy imbalance that causes global warming "is caused by human activities, primarily by the increase in CO2 concentrations. There is very high confidence that natural forcing contributes only a small fraction to this imbalance."
I watched "Collapse," but couldn't buy the idea of future human anthropologists. Any humans in a position to examine the wreckage will know what happened. It would have to be aliens.
But the point is the same: We're heading blindly into a massive contraction of overpopulation, resources, and warming. For a truly disturbing picture of an irradiated, polluted, virus-ridden hell, see "False Dawn" (Chelsea Yarbro).
A NASCAR racer gets 3-4 miles/gallon. No society that is serious about energy conservation burns fossil fuel for amusement.
Diamond, Jared, Collapse 7 parts
What happened? How did this happen to us? What are the causes? What role did humans play in current weather events? What can we do to not only survive, but thrive, given this reality? What good does calling these events "silly"? Are you deluding yourself? Are you in denial?
If it is true that many factors converge on our planet in this century, what can we do to create the kind of world we want to leave our children and their offspring?
Past Dead Sea Dry-Up Points to Ominous Future
"In 2011, the team drilled a 1,476-foot-long (450 meters) core, which captured roughly 250,000 years of the sea's history. Within the core, they found 45 meters (about 150 feet) of salt topped by a layer of pebbles, a record of an ancient, long-forgotten beach.
"the Dead Sea nearly vanished: The lake evaporated, leaving salt deposits in the process as water levels fell about 2,300 feet (700 m) until only a beach remained. The major desiccation happened during the planet's last warm period, around 100,000 years ago."
Tonya, I am sorry to inform you that climate change is real, it happens as a natural ebb and flow of the life of Earth, and the current hot spell will be even worse because of the pollution human beings pump into the air. It is not going to be an easy experience. Many cultures have died because of this sort of thing. Just read Jared Diamond's books, especially "Collapse".

"The candidates have so many comprehensive ideas for ensuring that our overheating planet—as well as human society in general—is pushed well beyond the point of no return, but it's impossible to tell which one will go slightly farther in reducing unemployment." Voters nationwide reportedly found themselves even more on the fence after learning that both candidates had pledged to build dozens of job-creating nuclear plants that, in the event of a minor mishap, could render vast regions of the nation immediately unlivable.
