The Impact of Coffee Certification on Small-Scale Producers' Livelihoods: Evidence from Ethiopia
What is the impact of product certification on small-scale farmers' livelihoods? To what extent does the participation of Ethiopian small-scale coffee farmers in certified local cooperative structures improve their socio-economic situation? To answer these questions, this paper employs household data of 249 coffee farmers from six different cooperatives collected in the Jimma zone of Southwestern Ethiopia in 2009. Findings show that the certification of coffee cooperatives has in total a low impact on small-scale coffee producers' livelihoods mainly due to (1) low productivity, (2) an insignificant price premium, and (3) poor access to credit and information from the cooperative. Differences in production and organizational capacities between the local cooperatives are mirrored in the extent of the certification benefits for the smallholders. 'Good' cooperatives have reaped the benefits of certification, whereas 'bad' ones did not fare well. In this regard the "cooperative effect" overlies the "certification effect".

Filner's Attorney: City Failed To Provide Mayor With Sexual Harassment Training
Wednesday, July 31, 2013
Aired 7/31/13 on KPBS News.
In a letter first obtained by Voice of San Diego, Mayor Bob Filner's attorney asserts that the city failed to provide the mayor with sexual harassment training. But council staff say the training is available online.
In a letter first obtained by Voice of San Diego, Mayor Bob Filner's attorney asserts that the city failed to provide the mayor with sexual harassment training and says the "City will almost certainly be liable for 'failing to prevent harassment'..."
But City Council staff members tell KPBS that the training is available online and it's up to all elected officials to complete the training on their own and to make sure their staff does the same.
In the letter, Harvey Berger, Filner's private attorney, says the city failed to provide the mayor with sexual harassment training and would therefore be held liable for any legal fees Filner incurred as a result of a sexual harassment lawsuit filed against him and the city of San Diego. The City Council on Tuesday night voted unanimously to reject Filner's request that the city pay his legal fees.
Filner's Attorney Requests City Cover Legal Fees
In a letter obtained by the Voice of San Diego, Mayor Filner's lawer, Harvey Berger requests the city cover the legal fees because it failed to provide the mayor with sexual harassment training.
"Had the city provided mandatory sexual harassment to Mayor Filner, Ms. McCormack Jackson may never have brought her lawsuit," he said, referring to the lawsuit filed July 22 by Filner's former director of communications, Irene McCormack Jackson.
Berger today declined a request by a KPBS producer to be interviewed about his letter.
By law, the city is to provide the mayor with sexual harassment training within six months of taking office, Berger stated in the letter.
"The City failed to provide such training to Mayor Filner," Berger wrote. "In fact, it is my understanding that such training was scheduled, but that the trainer for the City unilaterally cancelled, and never re-scheduled such training for the Mayor (and others.)"
Special Feature Read the Backstory
All of the accusations, statements and apologies from the key players in the developing story about allegations of sexual harassment in Mayor Bob Filner's office and calls from former mayoral supporters for his resignation.
Berger also said while "many may argue...an adult male should not need sexual harassment training," Filner did not receive sexual harassment training during his decades in office as a congressman.
But Diana Palacios, deputy chief of staff for City Councilman Scott Sherman, said the mandatory sexual harassment training was readily provided by the city online. It was the responsibility of newly elected officials to take the online training, she said. Sherman took office in early December, on the same day that Filner was sworn in.
Sherman completed the training and received his certificate in March.

Did SDSU fail to provide him this training while he was working there? Did parenthood not help him observe the experiences of young women? Did his mother neglect to instill in him a respect for women?
This is really everyone's fault but his.
DonWood | July 31, 2013 at 2:27 p.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
Apparently Scott Sherman, who got into office with the help of Carl DeMaio, has appointed himself chief haranguer against the mayor on the city council, despite stiff competition from Falcouner and Gloria, who both want to get into the mayor's office then they are term limited out of their council seats.
RLA | July 31, 2013 at 2:40 p.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
...and here we go, this is just getting messier and messier. The City Council can vote however they want, but Bob Filner will cost San Diego millions of dollars from the taxpayers. While these millions are being spent, any and all progress within the city will grind to a halt. This will all still be in court and in the headlines when Filner's term expires. Kind of a new way to look at that mantra " FOUR MORE YEARS". The hangover from Filner's election is going to be a doozie.
Peking_Duck_SD | July 31, 2013 at 3:09 p.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
The city attorney is an idiot.
It may be politically advantageous in the short-term to refuse to pay for legal representation here, but the lawsuit filed is against Filner AND the CITY.
Doesn't the city attorney/city council have an obligation to provide defense when the CITY is sued?
What is going to happen is the CITY will have no representation in court because the council and Goldsmith are inept hacks, so Filner's private lawyers will be there to twist everything around and make the city look like the ones who are libel.
I see from many posters on here that the council and Goldsmith's refusal to defend the CITY in the court case is popular, but in the end this will probably cost tax payers MORE as the city is much more likely to lose in court with no representation.
Filner's lawyers represent Filner only, NOT the interest of the CITY, and the CITY is being neglectful by actually suggesting they will provide no legal representation in a lawsuit where the CITY is named as a defendant.
This article is a prime example of how Filner's lawyers are at work trying to pin responsibility on the city, yet idiot Goldsmith and Gloria refuse to provide defense for our city.
Who is going to start the recall effort against GOLDSMITH!?
Put Filner and Goldsmith's name on the same damn recall petition, I'll sign that one.
Goldsmith must go, he stinks to high heaven, he is an agitator, an incompetent, and an embarrassment to this city.
CaliforniaDefender | July 31, 2013 at 3:29 p.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
"Filner did not receive sexual harassment training during his decades in office as a congressman."
So the US government liable as well? A lawyer's dream!
I wonder if Filner took anti-corruption training. No? So he's off the hook for that too. Darn. No anti-murder training? Uh-oh.
Kids, here's the lesson from Mr. Lawyer:
If you're not explicitly told something is wrong in a series of long Power Point presentations each year by your employer...IT'S PERFECTLY OK!
joecollins | July 31, 2013 at 3:31 p.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
This sounds like "throw everything against the wall and see what sticks."
jenjen | July 31, 2013 at 3:53 p.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
As a legal gambit, I get this. As a statement someone is willing to make in public and then actually keep his job, it's just so egregious!
David Lucero | July 31, 2013 at 4:08 p.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
A slick move from his attorney, and one to be expected from a person specializing in employee rights.
It is the responsibility of leaders to seek out the training they need in order to perform their job up to expectations. Saying, "I didn't know any better," is not an argument. Saying, "I was not trained," is not an argument. It is not unreasonable for us to expect a mayor to seek out the required training and complete it on his/her recognize within the required timeframe (6 months I understand).
This move clearly indicates Filner knows he will not hold onto the mayor's office, so he plans to have the taxpayers foot his bill as payback. At his age what does he care what we think. He's a millionnaire and will do everything necessary to hold onto his money. He knows his 'vision' for San Diego' will never be fulfilled now, and we're going to pay for it, too.
MalcolmSanDiego | July 31, 2013 at 4:22 p.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
Hey BobFilner: Hahahahaha!
Anyway, omg. Filner is an elected mayor; but, in any other context, people are taught not to behave like him. But they vote for him or support him. I will never fully understand politics--and that is a good thing for me.
russfox | July 31, 2013 at 4:41 p.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
Didn't Filner fight for woman's rights in his Congress days? And didn't they include strengthening of laws on sexual harassment? He must know a little something, no? To not know that it was wrong? Well, he did admit to that it is wrong, already. I guess he just sort of snapped to it.
MalcolmSanDiego | July 31, 2013 at 4:48 p.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
Where'd BobFilner go?
Aw, KPBS. Why'd you take him down! Put him back up! He's Filner's voice while Filner is away!
strata66 | July 31, 2013 at 5:53 p.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
I'm all for Bob, he did NOT receive sexual harassment training so how would he know what is appropriate behavior and what is not. The city is liable via ineptness and Bob keeps his job for 3.2 more years, case closed. The only citizens that will benefit is Team Pinocchio, I don't believe a headlock happened and is being embellished for shock value. This is all so stupid, but it's juicy news for the nation. And the people will come here in droves to see for themselves!! GO MAYOR FILNER!!
Grahma2 | July 31, 2013 at 7:52 p.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
Since most of the women who have come forth were harassed/molested prior to Bob Filner becoming mayor, one would have to assume that he should complain to the federal government about his lack of sexual harassment training. And as mentioned, he supposedly worked for many years to protect women in the military from similar attacks from their fellow soldiers. How can he possibly claim to protect women in the military and not know what such behavior consists of.
I am a Democrat and a woman - and am grateful that I live in Escondido so I did not have to even consider voting for this poor excuse for a government official.
BarryJohn | July 31, 2013 at 8:34 p.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
Filner's lawyer's argument might be relevant for a lower level employee, but as the Strong Mayor/CEO, Filner would ultimately responsible for the enforcement of all City policies & procedures. A subordinate coordinator-position type employee could not make or force the top executive to engage in the training, whereas other employees could be directly ordered to take the training if they for some reason were not addressing it by their own accord per the City's policy.
MarineRoom | July 31, 2013 at 9:24 p.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
Barry, you make an interesting argument.
muckapoo1 | August 1, 2013 at 6:37 a.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
I can only imagine how many days his dog ate his homework. This guy is not only a sorry excuse for a leader, he is a despicable human being. He makes me ashamed of my generation. He is a neanderthal that must have had terrible parents and few friends. CNN is going to love this newest twist in in this ongoing soap opera.
Mmikey | August 1, 2013 at 7:17 a.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
our leaders are so dumb they need training in courtesy and common sense.
Is this a window into the kind of persons that are supposed to represent us?
pwyguy | August 1, 2013 at 7:33 a.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
Filner, get another lawyer. This self-interest without honor approach is just about the dumbest political move I have ever heard. You may very well win and receive payment, but you've taken an automatic nail gun to your coffin with this idiotic action.
progressivebuthey | August 1, 2013 at 7:57 a.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
Filner is "getting off" with the perceived power he has not resigning.
muckapoo1 | August 1, 2013 at 8:12 a.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
What kind of dufus does not know not to run around kissing and slobbering on women? Mayor Bozo needs to go.

this will be his legacy...he must be so proud!

Like they say, "You can't make this stuff up!"
David Lucero | August 1, 2013 at 5:31 p.m. ― 3 years, 7 months ago
Can anyone imagine the outcry if we actually have to pay for his lawyer's fees?

When pampered Jacqueline Abington secretly elopes with the family gardener, she asks another woman to take her place on the much anticipated maiden voyage of the Titanic. Tessa Bowen hails from a poor corner of London but has been granted the opportunity of a lifetime—a ticket to sail to America aboard a famed vessel. But there's a catch: she must assume Jacqueline's identity. For the first time in her life, Tessa stays in luxurious quarters, dresses in elegant gowns, and dines with prestigious people. Then a wealthy American man takes an interest in her, and Tessa struggles to keep up the ruse as she begins falling for him. When tragedy strikes, the game is up, and two women's lives are forever changed.

Queen of the Waves is a fantastic Titanic story. First off, the movie absolutely traumatized me. I was in the third grade and saw people jumping from the ship, Jack freaking died… oh my god! I was a mess. That's why when I saw this book had something to do with the Titanic, I was leery. I've never read a book on the Titanic, so I thought I'd give it a try. You don't hear screams in a book. Jacqueline is privileged; her parents want her to marry someone she doesn't love. Instead, she fell for the gardener, Peter. She wants to stay where she is, she does not want to live in her grandmother's house, and the two of them make plans to get Peter's sister, Tessa, on board instead. Tessa is abused by her father. Peter wanted a better life for his sister, so the plan was set. Tessa went through training to become an heiress and was finally ready for her voyage. Little did they know, this little devious plan would affect them greatly… and not for the good. This book didn't disturb me at all like the movie. Instead, it was an enjoyable ride. Don't get me wrong, the sinking of the ship was still awful to read about, but the plot was so interesting I had to know what was next. Jacqueline and Tessa are strong characters who know what they want. It's hard being a woman during those times, but both of them held their heads up high and took on the world. Just because you know the ending of Titanic doesn't mean you know the ending of the characters. My heart bled and soared with the characters' feelings. The plot had nice pacing; I didn't skim any pages. There wasn't a lot of romance, which was fine with me… it didn't take anything away from the plot. If you're like me and are iffy about a Titanic book, don't worry about this one. I recommend it for you too!
The maiden voyage of the Titanic was the opportunity of a lifetime. For many, it was a voyage to a new home, a new life, a new beginning. When Jacqueline Abingdon sees that her father has made marriage plans for her without her consent, the ship becomes the main part of her escape plan. For Tessa Bowen, her part in Jacqueline's plan will give her a new start in life, if she can carry off her part of the masquerade. But everyone's destiny is changed in unforeseen ways when the voyage comes to a tragic end. There has always been a fascination with Titanic. An untold number of books have been written on the subject, movies have been made, and museums and memorials have been erected in her honor. One hundred years later, we still can't get enough on the subject, and I admit to being one of the worst Titanic-philes around. I love a good book, fiction or non-fiction, connected with the subject, so you can imagine my excitement when this book, the first in Summerside's American Tapestries series, arrived. I'm happy to say that I was not disappointed. This novel does a good job of telling the personal interest side of the story. The characters are well-developed, causing the reader to care about the outcome of each one. The author has maintained the accuracy of the historical aspects of the story. This was a compelling read, with no violence, sexual situations, or strong language. I look forward to reading the future installments in this historical romance series. 4 stars
Jacquie Abingdon is in an uncomfortable position. Her father wants her to marry his potential business partner. Jacquie on the other had wants to marry the gardner Peter. When Jacquie's mother offers her a ticket to America to escape what amounts to an arranged marriage, Jacquei formulates her own plan. She and Peter decide to help Peter's sister escape a harsh home life. So Peter's sister Tessa will take Jacquie's place on the ship while Peter and Jacquie make plans for a new life. Tessa is both excited and nervous by this prospect, but overall considers herself very lucky to be in the amazing accommodations of an amazing ship like the Titanic. However, both Tessa and Jacquie will have to deal with unexpected complications stemming from their decisions to try and start new lives. I felt drawn into this book from the start. It took almost no time to get into the meat of the story, although it did take a bit to actually get to the Titanic voyage. I liked the aspect of Tessa taking over Jacquie's life. Jacquie seemed like a pretty sincere (if a bit naive) person, so you wanted her to do well. I really felt for poor Tessa. What an awful life she had, and yet she still seemed to love parts of it. I also found it interesting that in a Christian book, there was a plot point that showed how bad religion could be when taken to extremes, such as Tessa's father did to her. The abuse Tessa had to withstand due to her father's (drunk) delusions was awful. I did find it endearing that she found so much comfort in the pet pig. I guess we all look for comfort wherever we can get it sometimes. I also managed to feel bad for Jacquie. She clearly wanted a life of her own choosing, and not one she was being forced into. I appreciate the historical aspects of the book. You certainly got a good feeling for what it was like on the Titanic, although I wish there had been more explanation of which characters were real people on board the Titanic. I recognized a few of the bigger names, but I wondered if some of the people were based on real people. That might have helped me get into the story even more. When reading a book like this, you know where things are headed for the most part. Clearly the Titanic is going to sink. The joy in books like these tend to be the smaller details and human faces given to the victims. I really sped through this book, and I would recommend it to people who love history in general and the Titanic specifically. Book provided for review.
"Queen of the Waves" is a lovely story that takes place on the ever-grand Titanic. It certainly has an intriguing plot: A young woman of high society, Jacquie Abingdon, is being pushed into a marriage that will forge two businesses together. But this marriage is not with the man she fancies. When an alternate route presents itself, she gladly jumps on board to escape her father's critical eye. Except, Jacquie doesn't jump on board the Titanic, but makes a deceptive switch with Tessa Bowen, a drunkard's daughter, to trade places. In Jacquie's naive mind, this is the only way she can remain with the man she truly loves. There was quite a bit of romance intertwined into the base of the plot. It is just a collection of sweet love stories all rolled into one book, but still too much for my taste. I was slightly confused that one of the young men in the story, Nathan Patterson, singled out Jacquie in the opera crowd, and later singled out Tessa on the Titanic. He "eyed" each of these young women, you might say, and he didn't realize that they were in fact, switching each other's lives. (It was just a strange coincidence that didn't need to happen for the story to progress.) Indeed, it's a story of heartbreak. I was greatly interested in the plot of the book, so much so that most of the time I forgot that the characters were on the Titanic, sailing into doom. Overall, a good book. I also enjoyed the Christian aspect of the story that vividly shines through. "There is a truth, however, that stands the test of time. No ship can penetrate it, no iceberg rise up against it. Nothing anyone builds or claims ownership to, short of the Almighty. It is the truth of God's love for us---love that crashes through even the coldest, most frigid heart."
What could be better? Reading a book that takes place aboard the Titanic with a wonderful Christian message. And a little romance on the side! This is my kind of book, and I absolutely loved it! I have been fascinated with the Titanic for most of my life, and in light of the anniversary celebrated concerning this disaster just this year, this book could not be better-timed. There were times I was so drawn into this book that I forgot where I was (which isn't good when you have a room full of students). I was touched by the pathos of the story and the inspiration of the characters. Tessa was absolutely captivating, and Jaquie certainly needed a "come-to-Jesus" meeting throughout most of the book. I don't think she always lived in reality. I loved seeing each character develop and be changed by the Lord, and there were even some things I hadn't considered about the sinking of this famous ship. I really don't want to give it away, so I won't say any more about that. The Christian message was woven into this story in expert fashion. I can only hope that this author will choose to write a sequel because I would absolutely love to see what the characters did next. Although the book has an obvious conclusion, there were still a few loose ends to tie up. I am happy to report that profanity and sex scenes did not exist within this book, so it is a clean romance. And the Christian message was appropriate and not overdone. So if you just can't get enough of the Titanic, this is the book for you! I was sent a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. I was not financially compensated, and all opinions are 100 percent mine.

And for straight C the concensus pick is the second edition C Programming Language by Kernighan and Ritchie (the ANSI K&R) which is a model text for clarity of language and presentation.
I have to admit I've never really understood the enthusiasm for K&R around here. While it may be a "model text for clarity of language and presentation" I'm not convinced that's entirely useful for people who are learning from a more non-technical background.I finally managed to find the title of the textbook required by my university back around 2001: C Programming: A Modern Approach. While I was pretty much self-taught by that stage I do remember being impressed by the book at the time. (Of course the mists of time may be clouding my recollection. :-) )So personally, for people with non-technical backgrounds (and even for others) I wouldn't really recommend K&R, but would suggest considering this book or other similar more "teaching" orientated books.--Phil.

Good service, would use again
I got an excellent professional service from these guys, really can't complain about anything from the price, quality and timing of the work, everything was a 10 out of 10. I have just moved to the area so it is good to find a local mechanic that you feel you can trust to do a good job. I can see why they have a lot of positive reviews, highly recommended.
They were extremely quick in getting the part needed in which other garages could not/ would not do and the car is running great! Thank you!
Great job. Did what they said they would do. Went the extra mile to carry out diagnostics on the car. Kept me updated. No pressure and no hassle. My regular service mechanics from now on !! Many thanks
Excellent customer service and very friendly. People.
Selected this garage to do my brake pads, disk and sensors on my Bmw 3 series. Communication was good. Did a good job, friendly staff and a nice, clean waiting area.
Cured the problem, but expensive I shouldn't think they are to far off main dealer prices
Excellent, top notch customer service, valeted the car as well
Excellent service and repairs. Took car in for full service but recommended some repairs which was carried out professionally.
Service was good overall
Highly recommended garage. Very honest and professional with excellent customer service. Work was carried out to high standard, no unnecessary work done. Also carried out a health check on the car which most garages don't do. Have re-booked this garage to get more work done and would definitely be coming back in the future.
Highly recommended professional and friendly service. Parts were fitted in accordance with agreed competitive price. Would definitely use again.
Excellent Service.. Parts were fitted as described and the price agreed was a very good one. Would recommend this garage to everyone A+
Professional work, good price, excellent service would use again.thank you
Arrived on time. once fully repaired showed all replaced parts and only worked on once cleared with me step by step. Was more expensive than original quote and waited for the difference being so close to Christmas. Extremely satisfied with his workmanship, his thoughtfulness of entering into my home without boots on and his understanding along with politeness and was at no time badgering. I believe that this man conducted his business, which is gained via this site normally on distress of the vehicle owner. Thank you A&M.
never returned my calls after giving me quote online
Fixed okay good job maybe ,an update to say cost would rise .
I was very pleased with the service that was done on my car and would recommend GC Autotech
Professional and honest! Recommended!

I was wondering if there's anyone who's been syncing old analogue gear, like a SH-101 or TB-303, to max/msp (or ablton live through the use of pluggo).
It should be quite easy to send a gate/trigger signal from max to sync those old machines…
Anybody has any experience with this!?
i've connected max to my doepfer. just use a midi to cv converter and use midi. they're pretty cheap.
alternatively, you could just send out low freq pulses if you have a gate in, but it may depend on your sound card.

Front brake rotors can wear causing a pulsation felt in the brake pedal. Our technicians tell us this condition is best corrected by replacement of the front rotors and brake pads.
The alternator may fail causing the charge light to illuminate. Driving with this condition will eventually cause the engine to stall due to low system voltage.
The rubber section of an automatic transmission cooler line may develop a fluid leak . In some cases the leaking section of hose can be replaced. In others, the complete cooler line must be replaced to correct this concern.

As a kid, Michelle Khine loved Shrinky Dinks. So when she didn't have the equipment at the University of California, Merced, that she needed to make chips with tiny fluid-filled cavities for use in experiments and medical diagnostics, Khine improvised: She printed chip patterns onto her beloved childhood toy. "Typically, the difficulty and the cost is how to pattern at such a fine scale," says Khine, now an assistant professor at UC Irvine. "The smaller you go, the more expensive it's going to be." Shrinky Dinks offered a cheap, elegant solution. As the printed plastic shrank in a toaster oven, the deposits of ink on top thickened, yielding a mold for a chip with small wells on its surface. Recognizing the potential market for affordable microdevices, she helped found Shrink Nanotechnologies, which develops molecular-detection platforms, rapid-prototyping kits, and stem-cell tools innovations that may make micro fluidic devices more accessible to scientists and speed important research. "A lot of these devices have been stuck in the labs that have the expertise to make them," she says. "Now, you can go in and print the design you want."
Whenever I get a crazy idea, I still go into the kitchen to mess around on anything lab-related, creative-related, or food-related.
Who is the most creative person you know?
Fiorenzo Omenetto at Tufts. He developed a platform technology where he makes electronics with silk. We're collaborating now and we're both just all over the map. It's fun when you find someone as wacky as you.

Hiring freeze result of Trump team's review of federal agencies
Hiring freeze result of Trump team's review of federal agencies
More agencies are seeking out mobile strategies. As more agencies make the move, they have more information and experience to work with. Joe Herres, executive vice president of product and co-founder of H3 Solutions, joined Francis Rose on Industry Chatter to talk about where agencies are on mobile, where they're going and where they should be going.
The IT piece of HealthCare.gov is struggling. Some call it a failure. But the policy piece of the Affordable Care Act may be the underlying problem. The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee looked at the website project and its management yesterday. Tom Temin from the Federal Drive says the administration is suffering from a crisis of competence.
From the Navy Yard shooting to the security information breach by Edward Snowden, the current security clearance process needs changing, DoD says. The Government Accountability Office is asking agencies to analyze their personnel security clearance processes. Brenda Farrell, director of Defense Capabilities and Management Issues at the GAO, testified about the security clearance process to the House Homeland Security Counterterrorism and Intelligence Subcommittee yesterday.
More training opportunities for government and industry are coming from the ACT-IAC Academy. They are revamping their course offerings and their structure. Jim Beaupre, the new Director of the ACT IAC Academy and former head of the Industry Advisory Council, says some of the classes are new, but the Academy isn't.
The Air Force's acting secretary says the uncertainty around the federal budget makes it extremely hard to make decisions about the service's future shape and size. But he says even if Congress undoes the budget cuts, the service will need to get smaller.
The Federal Cloud Credential Exchange, or F-6, pilot is still in the early stages of development, but potential users are excited about how it could change the way agencies authenticate and authorize users of their systems. The Postal Service awarded a R15 million contract to SecureKey Technologies in August to develop and run the initial F-6 program. Just three months into the effort, agencies are eager to see the results.

@chengsta - how did you volume match between the two? SPL meter?
Actually I didn't, I just used my ears to match. But I did make it slightly louder for a while, then made it slightly lower in volume for another while during testing. When I turned it up loud enough to actually hear the air and shimmer, it hurt my ears. Both for the x5 (dac mode) and the Modi. The x5 by itself doesn't need to be turned up as loud to hear the shimmer. Its probably not noticeable to anyone that's not intimately familliar with their tracks though.

How do you answer those questions? I know they develop because of a river, flat land and route focus. But how do you expand?
And how can you tell how they developed by looking at an aerial photograph? (Except because of the river)
well also because for example the Normans came from France so they settled on the east coast of Ireland closest to where they originated from :) hope this helped
You could talk about how the river means well drained land and fertile soil, the flat land makes it easy to farm and build and w it is easy to move to places at a route focus fr business and people (??) Hope this helps
No problem and good luck to you😊

I am a second generation Realtor; it is in my blood. The Schaller Family Business was started by my parents over 20 years ago.
