Scottish novelist Andrew O'Hagan has spent years researching his latest book. He's spent time in libraries, galleries, parks and even art auctions. The book is The Life and Opinions of Maf the Dog and of His Friend Marilyn Monroe, and it's a completely accurate description of his novel narrated by a dog. But what a dog he is: history tells us is that in November 1960, Frank Sinatra gave Marilyn Monroe a dog. His name was Maf. Short for Mafia Honey, that was Marilyn's idea not Frank's. Maf stayed with her for the last two years of her life, and had a dog's eye view of 1960s America, from the heights of the political, literary and cultural worlds that these extremely famous people moved in.

There's no doubt Kumbalgharh fort is a hugely impressive construction. 36km of walls covering14km2. Of course you have to climb up to the top of the fort, but with largely empty rooms, apart from some elephant frescoes, it's not a hugely rewarding experience. The view is commanding and the highest structure, the Badal Mahal means Cloud Palace. Even when it's...
Interestingly, the name comes from the root word 'Kumbh' in Sanskrit, which means 'clay pot'; because of its architectural style (see featured image from last blog how it looks from a distance, that clay-pot structure which is supporting these walls). Just to refresh your memory, this fort never fell to any of the attackers & hosts the longest wall in...
This fort is nearby day activity from Udaipur and Jodhpur. From udaipur it is nearly 80 Kms and 3.5 hrs drive. It is important historical place in mewar region. Its a very huge fort. Since it is situated on the hills, it offers a very good view of the nearby area but requires tiresome climbing and stairs. Jungle safari is...
Take the help of an authorised guide to understand the history properly. Do not miss the sound and light show where they explain the history using lights music etc.
Ideal time to visit is 4 pm to 7 pm so you can peacefully see the fort in 2 hrs and attend the sound and light show.
Was very disappointed by this fort... the ramparts are very impressive, but apart from that it is very over rated.. the views are great , though when I went it was very haze and not nessarily pretty
We were driving down to Kumbhalgarh from Jodhpur, via Ranakpur. Google maps goofed-up & we reached the Kumbhalgarh fort much later than expected in our tight itinerary :(
We were really keen to see this fort with a guide, but alas couldn't due to paucity of time. We purchased the fort-entrance tickets as well as the light & sound show...
Kumbhalgarh Fort, located 80 kms away from Udaipur, is one of the important tourist places in Udaipur. It takes around 2-3 hours to reach.
Honestly speaking, after visiting Mehrangarh Fort, Amer Fort, I found it quiet disappointing from maintenance and tourist information point of view.
I looked for a government guide in situ but unable to find one. I do...
It is the main attraction of Kumbhalgarh which is about 2 KM from Partap Chownk. One can buy entry ticket as well Light & Sound ticket at the enterance of the Fort.
An amazing fort for its sheer size & area.the 36 km wall is mind boggling. The climb up to the palace, steep & with its numerous gates just hinted to an era & lifestyle that must have been.
Beautiful to just stroll around , and take a walk towards the temples in the distance. In ruins , but some of...
Kumbhalgarh fort is one of the biggest fort in the world. Rajput Mewar kings constructed to safe guard there interest over a hill top at3200 feet above the sea level.
Boundary wall are second to Great Wall of China in length of about 34 kms.
Construction is done over the period of 3 generation of Mewar rajput kings.

After the Light and sound show is it safe to drive to Mount Abu in night or should we stay in kumbhalgarh and leave in the next morning.
Could you please describe the degree of difficulty in reaching the Fort and thereafter walking in the fort. Staircase and up/downhill paths. (I just had a back surgury and want to be assured before I do the bookings).
Thank you in advance
I plan to visit this place with my wife, but she has difficulties walking up slopes. is there what to see there if we don't do stairs or slopes ?
Been thinking about visiting Kumbhalgarh in June and was wondering if it will be rainy at that time of the year or just hot?
Also, if anyone who has been to the fort as well as say, Machu-Picchu can compare the difficulty of the terrain, steps, climb etc would really help me make up my mind.
I heard its winter season, even though is it still hot?.
Is there any bus services from Jodhpur - Kumbhalgarh Fort?

Hello everyone
>received Karen Glasgow's book Irises for New Zealand. This book was

Ditto to that statement Clarence I have had my copy for a while (well I have
a home ground advantage) I bought my copy when it was first mentioned on the
list & I think it is one of the best books I have read on iris nothing too
"techie" for the average gardener but full of useful things to know.
I will now go & cut all my iris blooms as the weather here is packing in &
gale force wind warnings with heavy rain warnings are being broadcast.

Music Lab Opens in Granite Bay, Providing Top-Quality Music Instruction to All
GRANITE BAY, Calif. — Northern California's top instructors are ready to set an impressive new standard, as Music Lab opens its doors to students. Offering music lessons for all ages, styles, and experience levels, the new music school includes state-of-the-art teaching rooms and flexible access to the area's music teacher standouts for drums, guitar, bass, piano, and voice. Whether with private, individual instruction, group tutelage, performance programs, or master classes, Music Lab has something for everyone.
"We're happy to announce that Music Lab has opened and that we're now accepting students," Music Lab founder Serge Lysak said, "Learning and advancing as a musician can be incredibly rewarding, and we're determined to provide people throughout Granite Bay and beyond with all the support and instruction they need. We've assembled an outstanding team of dedicated, experienced teachers, with many of Northern California's most accomplished instructors right now working with our students. We're committed to making sure each Music Lab student can grow to the greatest possible extent, whatever their age, preferred styles, experience level, or goals."
Music instruction has long been recognized as being both intrinsically rewarding and an effective way of becoming a better-rounded person in general. One 2009 report published in the journal Research Studies in Music Education, for example, found that the brain development resulting from music education "exposed and illuminated more general organizing structures relevant for multiple disciplines."
Expanding on an approach proven successful at Northern California's top drum school, Music Lab was established to ensure that people of all ages, interests, experience levels, and goals can enjoy everything that music education and performance have to offer. With an all-star team of instructors covering a huge range of guitar, bass guitar, piano, drum, and voice styles, Music Lab is committed to helping each student learn and grow to the greatest possible degree.
Toward that end, Music Lab offers a full range of instruction and performance options, from private, one-on-one lessons for beginners to ensemble programs and master classes. As students are encouraged to explore and stretch their boundaries under the guidance of highly accomplished, dedicated instructors, Music Lab supports both the intensive cultivation of musical skills and the kinds of eye-opening discoveries that can prove to be the most rewarding of all.

I confess that I have never been to White Hart Lane. I am 27 and have supported Spurs since I was 13. My stepfather was a Man City fan and advised me to choose my team wisely. After watching young Gazza, Hoddle, Waddle and so on, I was hooked and have never looked back. It was a moment I shared with my stepfather which makes it so special. Can I call myself a dedicated Spurs fan? Never been to White Hart Lane but been through all the highs and lows in the last decade.
Rachel ThomasI must confess as well that I am in love with Simon Davies. Being Welsh, I was delighted when he scored against Italy and I think he's a fantastic footballer and very good looking too!! xxxx
Kevin CornwallOssie's hot start. When Ossie Ardiles joined Spurs after the 78-world cup his first game was the famous ticket tape throwing as they had done in Argentina well I also had pockets full of ripped newspaper and joined in this fantastic occasion well with Cigarette in my mouth this had been knock to the ground unknown to me this started to smoulder and eventually started a little fire beneath my feet well the crowd around me parted like Moses and the red sea well there I stood jumping up and down trying to put out the fire with everyone wondering what was going on thankfully the fire quickly went out and the crowd moved back into position From this day I was to scared to to bring any newspaper into the ground.

They found me, through their cleaner, we'd both been at tafe together, studying office admin, which neither of us have ever used, lol. And she recommended me to them, we met, negotiated care and costs and I was their nanny for 8yrs
This post is very interesting and as a early childhood teacher and a qualified nanny most jobs love the before and after school care drop offs and most of those jobs stay up for ages on websites nobody wants them but if you want more care provided for other children during the day the job sounds better.
Mummy nanny jobs are awesome but so hard to find, go onto www.findababysitter.com.au. Good luck, mums
I charge $15-20 an hour depending on family I also tidy up kids mess, and once kids are in bed il tidy up all areas they were in, do dishes etc
I advertise myself through gumtree and findababysitter usually and word of mouth
I used to have quite a big client base before I went overseas but struggling now to find families... Feel like there's 20 babysitters for every family looking for one on gumtree.
But yes sounds like it would be a good option for you to avoid all differant pick ups etc
i charged $25 p/h but did report it as income so paid tax on it.
I usually cared for younger children so never did drops off etc, but wouldnt have had a problem doing drop offs. When the babies were napping during the day I would do things like hang washing, prepare and freeze meals, and any odd jobs i could see that needed doing. I wasnt asked to do cleaning or anything but if i could see the dishwasher needed loading/unloading or washing needed hang/folding/taking in i would always do it. A previous poster said their babysitter leaves a mess after them...i would really consider getting a new one!! nannies/babysitters are supposed to help make your life easier, not harder! I would never leave bottles unwashed, or a mess around, thats just rude and lazy IMO.

Butch Hartman has a long and storied history of creating great cartoon shows. Not only is he responsible for The Fairly OddParents, the second longest-running Nicktoon on Nickelodeon, but he's also created several other popular shows including Danny Phantom and T.U.F.F. Puppy. And now here he is once again with a unique new Nickelodeon show, Bunsen is a Beast.
Bunsen is a Beast is a cartoon about Bunsen (voiced by Jeremy Rowley), the first beast to be integrated into the Muckledunk Middle School, and his new human friend Mikey Munroe (Ben Giroux). It also features self-appointed school safety monitor and beast-hater Amanda Killman (Kari Wahlgren) and a collection of other oddball characters such as Ms. Flap (Cheri Oteri) and Darcy, who circle the main pair during their adventures.
But what is a Beast, per se? Well, in Hartman's creation, even within the Beast world there appears to be great variety, »

There's a new kid in school at Nickelodeon, and he's a real beast.
"Bunsen Is a Beast" is the latest toon series from longtime Nickelodeon creator Butch Hartman, whose "The Fairly OddParents," "Danny Phantom," and "T.U.F.F. Puppy" have all been hits for the studio.
"Bunsen" tells the tale of a strange creature learning to navigate the world of middle school for the first time with the help of his human friend Mikey. Bunsen just wants to show the human world that monsters and humans can co-exist peacefully without monsters wanting to eat everyone.
"The show's about every kid's experience in school about trying to fit in and be popular. Who better to try and fit in than someone who's not even from this world," says Hartman, who first drew the characters back in 2009, when he was considering the idea for a children's book.

In today's TV News Roundup, FX's "Sons of Anarchy" spinoff recruits Edward James Olmos, "Silicon Valley" Season 4 gets a premiere date, and more.
Casting FX's "Sons of Anarchy" spinoff, titled "Mayans Mc," has cast its first star, Variety has confirmed. Edward James Olmos has joined the pilot as a series regular. The "Battlestar Gallactica" alum will play Felipe Reyes, the once-strong Mexican patriarch, crushed by bullets and hard labor, who struggles to keep his past buried and lead his sons down a lawful, righteous path. The pilot, which is slated to shoot next month, focuses on the Mayans motorcycle club and will follow Ez Reyes (yet to be cast), a potential member for the club's charter on the California-Mexico border. "Sons of Anarchy" creator Kurt Sutter will direct the pilot and serve as executive producer.

On Wednesday, it was revealed via a press release from Netflix that producer Adi Shankar's long in-development adaptation of the long-running video game franchise, Castlevania, would be getting the TV treatment. Not only would the series be hitting the streaming service, but it would be hitting it soon. 2017 soon. That's right, unlike many other TV announcements, you won't have to sit on your hands for two years while the show runs through the development mill.
Now, on the heels of that announcement, Shankar has had a chance to give us a few more tidbits of information regarding the show. So what can we expect from this brutally violent series?
For starters, the show is animated.
If you've been following the project since its inception, you'll know that back in 2015, Shankar first announced his involvement, stating he'd be working with Fred Seibert and Kevin Kolde. »

Viacom CEO Bob Bakish has shifted oversight of TV Land and Cmt to Spike chief Kevin Kay, who will lead the three networks as head of the company's Global Entertainment Group. The move continues the reorganization of Viacom's cable brands under Bakish, who was named permanent Viacom CEO in December.
TV Land and Cmt had been part of Viacom's Kids and Family Group, led by Cyma Zarghami.
"Consolidating all three under Kevin's leadership will strengthen these brands even further and will allow Geg to connect more deeply with our adult audience — which is well over 180 million viewers across Viacom brands globally," Bakish said Wednesday in a memo to staff.
Bakish went to quick work reorganizing Viacom's brands after taking the full-time reins at Viacom last month. Just one week after Bakish was named permanent CEO, longtime Viacom exec Doug Herzog, who had overseen Comedy Central, MTV »

You could try using throat lozenges like Strepsils in the interim but you cannot escape the fact that ultimately you need to consult an ENT Specialist who will examine your nose, throat and ears to diagnose your ailment and then prescribe medication for same. Dosage also depends upon your body weight and build for optimum efficacy and to minimise any drug side effects.

My non curry loving 9yo doesn't like hot nor spicy. The yellow curry from May's Thai never fails her. I recommend the chicken and cashew.
One of the best Thai places around the Bayside. Reasonably priced and always fast, friendly service.
May's is just up the road from us and we often us the take-away service. The food is always very good made with excellent, fresh ingredients.
My wife avoids gluten and many dishes at may's can be ordered gluten-free.
The prices are very good too.
May's Thai Restaurant is a local of mine and they have great Thai food which is very tasty and reasonably priced; the Pad Thai is awesome. So anyone in the Manly West area who is looking for great Thai food, pay them a visit, you will not be disappointed.
My wife and I have eaten at May's Thai 3 times recently. The food has been excellent every time. The owner and staff are all lovely. The kitchen is open so you can see the meals being prepared freshly and in a spotless kitchen. The restaurant is byo so you are not paying high prices for alcohol.
We highly recommend...
What a great restaurant! I'd never had Thai food before and ordered the yellow Thai curry with rice - utterly delightful. Great evening with family and a great atmosphere - reasonably priced too 😉
ive been to this thai restaurant both the one in Manly and the one in Glenora street Wynnum. Many many many times and each time the food if beautiful. The place is always spotless and the service is fabulous to. The Pad Thai. Is the best ever.
We are regulars here for their every day lunch special. At $9.90 it is amazing value. My daughter is coeliac and they have quite a few selections that they can cater as gluten free. Always delicious and we have never had a bad meal here and would highly recommend.
You know that thing people do when they want you to just...go?
You know the one, it usually happens on Christmas Day when you go to someone's house for lunch.
Usual time for this well known phenomenon is roughly at about 3:00pm. Doors start getting closed, music gets turned down, plates are put away and the man of the house...
Dined in with the family, we all found the food very sweet, i was hoping for something more spicy, more authentic.

Neuropil Distribution in the Anterior Cingulate and Primary Visual Cortex of Cetartiodactyla, Primates, and Afrotheria (1) College of Pharmacy and Health Scie n ces, Drake University (2) School of Anatomical Sciences, The University of Witwatersrand (3) Deparment of Anatomy, Des Moines University Amy Nguyen, Nina Patzke, Kathleen Bitterman, Paul Manger, and Muhammad Spocter 2,3 1 Mean 232232 DISCUSSION The increased connectivity observed in the ACC relative to the OCC supports our understanding of the ACC and its role in the limbic system. We would hypothesize that regional variation in neuropil space is indicative of behavioral differences supporting socio-cognitive functions relevant for each species. The contradiction within primates reduction of minicolumn widths, and in effect, smaller NF, allowed for specialization in the cortical microcircuitry. Identification of specialized modules in the primary visual cortex of primates supports the idea of modifications. The hippopotamus has on average, the largest neuropil space sampled to date; however, its aggressiveness makes studying its behavior and sociality difficult. In the absence of a full chemoarchitectural analysis and reconstruction of neuronal complexity, the behavioral complexity of the hippopotamus is relatively unknown. The use of the pygmy hippopotamus in the study is not representative of H. amphibius, and comparative studies such as these are limited by tissue availability and the "endangered status" of some of these species. CONCLUSION In conclusion, all eighteen species display a higher neuropil fraction in the anterior cingulate cortex in comparison to that observed in the primary visual cortex. Species with complex socio-cognitive behaviors may have evolved different mechanisms to support these functions. Further studies are required to identify specific adaptations in the ACC, especially in the much understudied hippopotamus due to its surprisingly high NF values.

Each series was subjected to background subtraction and then converted to binary by an automated threshold routine (Fig. 4). 5 The percentage of the measuring frame occupied by pixels representing unstained elements was calculated and used to determine the NF using the equation below (Fig. 4). until further processing. Blocks of the occipital and frontal lobes, containing the OCC and the ACC respectively, were removed with a coronal cut at the level of the precentral gyrus rostrally and a further cut at the level of the angular gyrus caudally (Fig. 2). Tissue blocks were cryoprotected by immersion with increasing concentrations of sucrose solutions up to 30%. Blocks were covered with sucrose, frozen on a slur of dry ice, and sectioned at 50μm using a sliding microtome.

ACC Bovidae Suidae Camelidae Macroscelididae Trichechidae Catarrhini Platyrrhini Afrotheria Image frame acquisition was monitored during fractionator sampling, and all frames that and cetaceans can be explained by modifications in neural circuitry. The study by Peters and Yilmaz Cetartiodactyla ABSTRACT Previous studies of the cerebral cortex have utilized the neuropil space as a proxy for connectivity, highlighting structural differences between cortical areas. The following study aims to investigate the distribution of neuropil space across 18 mammalian Orders in two cortical areas, sampled from the frontal and occipital lobes. Results indicate a significant difference in neuropil space between cortical areas and species. The anterior cingulate cortex maintained a higher neuropil fraction than the primary visual cortex among all species studied. BACKGROUND INFORMATION The Ceratriodactyla contain a great diversity in brain morphology and behavior as exemplified by the elaborate behavioral repertoire of the bottlenose dolphin. Despite this, little is known about species-specific variation in neuronal packing, connectivity, 1 and variation in neuropil space for this clade. Using image analysis techniques, the neuropil fraction (NF) in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), and the primary visual cortex (OCC) in layers I-VI of the cerebral cortex was quantified to identify species and regional differences in connectivity. It is believed that qualitative differences in connectivity underlie behavioral differences between species. Given the role of the ACC as a component of the limbic system involved in the emotional aspects of motivating and initiating goal-directed behaviors, it is argued that modifications in the neuropil are responsible for some of the complex behaviors exhibited by the members of this group. The study examines the NF in the ACC and OCC across 18 mammalian species. MATERIALS & METHODS Specimens and histological preparation The brains of eighteen adult mammalian species of unknown sex were used in this current study (Fig. 1). All animals were euthanized and brain specimens harvested during necropsy, with permission and guidelines from the University of the Witwatersrand Animal Ethics Committee and in accordance with comparable provisions from the NIH. After harvesting, whole brains were submerged in 4% formaldehyde solution RESULTS Our results indicate a consistent pattern of greater NF in the ACC in comparison to that observed in the OCC. The two primate species (vervet monkey and squirrel monkey) included in this study expressed the lowest mean NF across all species studied for both the ACC (.697) and OCC (.506). By contrast the hippopotamus ( H. liberiensis ), displayed the largest mean NF in both regions (ACC=.860 OCC=.819) and appeared to be an outlier in comparison to the broader Artiodactyla and Cetacea groups. Mean NF values in the artiodactyls were ACC=.763 and OCC =.717 while for the minke whale, a NF of.724 and.532 for the ACC and OCC were collected respectively. Image analysis The neuropil fraction (NF) was sampled in Nissl sections in layers I to VI by quantifying the relationship between the proportion of unstained and stained cellular elements. Using the StereoInvestigator program, contours were drawn around the region of interest at 2X magnification and fractionator sampling was used to randomly sample digital images at 20X magnification (Fig. 3). Image stacks consisting of approximately 20 images per section were collected and converted into a series of 8 bit grayscale image frames. The following parameters describe the sampling design: grid spacing 1000 μm X 1000 μm; an average target intensity of 71%; image size 1600 x 1200 pixels, resolution 0.37 pixels per μm. 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.6 0.7 0.8 0.9 1.0 Afrotheria Artiodactyls Hippopotamus Primates Whales b Sig. Fig. 2 - Schematic illustrating the cortical areas where the neuropil was sampled. Olf CerebCereb OCCOCC White Matter Caudat e ACCACC CortexCortex OCC 4 Mean Difference (I-J) Std. Error A significant difference in mean NF between the ACC and the OCC (F=775.684 P<0.05) was observed. In addition, a significant difference was observed between species (F=59.682 P<0.05) and the interaction between brain region and species (F=153.204 P<0.05) (Table 1).

The sand is gray on this beach and its a thin patch before it meets ocean on one side or trees and brush on the other. One of the best features of this beach is rocky formations by the shore that make for scenic and turbulent splashes of waves. The sheer length of it is good for lengthy walks on the shore, combing for shells or maybe interesting little sea critters.
Positioned on the eastern outskirts of Saint Mary Parish, 2.1 miles northwest of Buff Bay, Windsor Castle Beach is on the East edge of Jamaica. You might think about stopping by even if you aren't staying very close. There are plenty of advantages to visiting a beach that isn't packed full of hotel guests; relatively untouched parts of the coast like Windsor Castle Beach might not be typical "beach scenes", but are nice and private.
Please note that public restrooms are not available, which is something to consider if you plan to spend a full day in the sun. You'll find the waters off-shore to be clear and good for snorkeling, so grab some equipment if you're wanting to check out the underwater sites.
If you find that you enjoy beaches which grant an idyllic environment, then maybe head on over to Windsor Castle Beach; it's back within a more natural section of Jamaica.
This beach is positioned on Jamaica's East coast. Nearby you'll find accommodations like Robin's Bay Village and Beach Resort, it can be found nine and a half miles away, and is perhaps the closest hotel reachable from Windsor Castle Beach, though you may not find too many other popular spots in the area.
If you're interested in mixing a little culture with your trip to the beach, you might want to consider visiting Bob Marley Museum. This museum is located some ways off, but, if you've got a car, it's not a bad trip away, so it would be an easy side trip to take after some time in the sun.
Beaches are a great attraction to visit, but there's plenty else to see during your stay. The following table contains attractions that are the closest.
|Brimmer Hall Estate
|Historical Site
|Constant Spring Golf Club
|Golf Course
|Folly Lighthouse
|Folly Ruins
|Historical Site
|Christelle's Gaming
|Gambling Arcade
The closest part in Jamaica to Windsor Castle Beach is Hart Hill. This friendly part of Jamaica is just a half mile from the shore, so you needn't use up an entire day here. It's important to note that this part of Jamaica is a fairly rural area, but it will be a pleasant day trip for visitors looking to check out the local scene.
The popularity of this spot on any given day can vary, depending on when you visit, and how full nearby hotel rooms are. Windsor Castle Beach is not near very many major hotels, but it's often visited by guests staying at the few small lodgings in the area.
You might not run into any places to grab a bit to eat surrounding this coast, so you might want to plan a picnic if you want to fully enjoy your day in the sun.
Needless to say, Windsor Castle Beach isn't the only beach worth visitng in Jamaica.
Travelers who like this beach might also enjoy Buff Bay, located just a little ways away. If you're looking for a more active beach scene, you might enjoy people watching at Palmetto Bay. It's found a mile and a half to the west-northwest.
You might also want to visit Annotto Bay, which is located just a cab ride away.
Maybe Windsor Castle Beach is a perfect spot for you to kick back, and at the same time perhaps not the the ideal fit; in which case there are other beaches (and other outdoor attractions) worth trying.

However, despite the benefits associated with this trend of internationalization such as the availability of funds, risk diversification and enhancement of efficiency in the local banking sector, it also has the demerit of causing financial shocks to an economy as observed in the recent financial crisis. Considering the increased expansion and growth of international trade and business networks, internationalization of banking sector has become very important to our current global economy. This is because through international banks access to funds has been eased especially to credit-constrained firms and households; in addition, this has introduced competition in the local banking sector that has led to increase of consumer surplus due to decreased rates of borrowing and increase on interest rates paid on deposits. Furthermore, this competition has led to local banks being more efficient and as a result enhancing economic stability Internationalization of the banking sector has the benefit of facilitating capital flows especially from the economies rich in capital to the poor ones where the returns are perceived to be higher (Mullineux & Murinde 4). This in turn enhances the growth of the poor economies by boosting their savings and investments as well as reducing their capital costs. ...

THE GLOBAL PARTNERSHIP ON Wealth Accounting and the Valuation of Ecosystem Services Policy applications of SEEA Juan Pablo Castañeda Agriculture and Environmental Services Department, World Bank
Click to edit Master title style Outline What is WAVES? Where have the accounts been more useful? – Indicators for monitoring sustainable development – Energy and air pollution: cleaner, more efficient production – Stocks of minerals & energy: fiscal rules, managing mineral revenues for long term growth – Land and ecosystems: balancing the needs of tourism, commercial and subsistence agriculture, water supply, soil erosion, and other uses – Water accounting: managing a scarce resource
Click to edit Master title style What is WAVES? Global partnership that aims to promote sustainable development by ensuring that the national accounts used to measure and plan for economic growth include the value of natural capital. WAVES is about mainstreaming natural capital accounting in national statistical systems and development planning Looking for countries where institutionalization is likely rather than pilot/one off studies Staffed and resourced to produce accounts on a regular basis Complete with appropriate institutional and legal arrangements
Click to edit Master title style Who is involved? Core Implementing Country Partners: receiving substantial technical support from WAVES multi-donor Trust Fund (5 countries so far) Contributing Donor Partners: UK, Japan, Norway, France, the Netherlands, Germany, EC, Denmark, Switzerland Participating Partners: countries with other sources of funding who have endorsed the NCA communique, UN & international organizations, NGOs, private sector, academics and others

SEEA – Applications and Policy Uses, 2013
1. Indicators of sustainable development … Is GDP growth sustainable or are we just living off our (natural) capital?
Click to edit Master title style Sustainable Development and Wealth We dont judge a company solely on the basis of its income statementlook at both income and balance sheet. Increasing assets (wealth) support long-term growth. In the short term, income can appear to grow by liquidating assets, but this undermines long-term growth. Why do we assess country economic progress on the basis of national income, GDP alone? (J. Stiglitz, Nobel prize, economics) The source of income and well-being is wealth, broadly defined to include – Manufactured capital, Natural capital, Intangible capital (human capital and social capital)
Measuring country sustainability through changes in wealthAdjusted Net Savings ANS measures gross saving adjusted for Depreciation of fixed capital Human capital investment, Resource depletion Pollution damages Key question is whether adjusted net saving is positive or negative Negative saving indicates unsustainability
Examples using Adjusted Net Savings: Sudan and Algeria In SUDAN, finding oil boosted gross saving, but not enough to offset depletion of oil…ANS is negative ALGERIA: Public + private savings more than offsets depletion. ANS is positive
2. Energy and air pollution accounting for cleaner, more efficient production
Decoupling economic growth from energy use and GHG in the Netherlands
Carbon emissions and carbon taxes by sector in Sweden
Impacts of a carbon tax on prices and competitiveness of exports Impacts of eliminating energy subsidies Designing a low-carbon economy Energy and pollution management : Using energy accounts with economic models
4. Resource-rich economies: managing rents from minerals and energy
Development Challenge: transform non- renewable resources into other forms of capital Recovery of rent by government through appropriate taxes, royalties Indicator: % of resource rent obtained by government Manage rents for long term growth Investment to compensate for depletion Stabilization fund Indicator: Comprehensive wealth or Adjusted Net Savings
Natural resource rents –a major source of income (% of GDP, 2012)
Botswanas mineral rents and long term growth 2. Investment of mineral revenues build wealth and income ( index of real, percapita growth in wealth, GDP) 1. Govt. recovers mineral revenues/rent
5. Land and ecosystems: ….taking into account non-market ecosystem services like coastal protection and externalities like pollution
Click to edit Master title style MARKET value of mangrove: if converted to shrimp farm $9,632 $9,632 per ha (shrimp) MARKET value of mangrove: under current use under current use $864 $864 per ha (timber and non-timber) Additional NON-MARKET value: $16,861 : $16,861 per ha--Coastal protection from storms Making informed decisions about mangrove forests in Thailand
