Zimbabwe's economy grew by 0.7 percent in 2016 despite the combined effect of the El Nino drought and domestic financial turmoil. The drought reduced agricultural output and increased food prices towards the end of the year, despite the government's efforts to boost production and stabilize prices. ... See More + The public provision of agricultural inputs, the creation of food-for-work programs, and the establishment of price supports for staple foods accentuated the government's expansionary fiscal-policy stance. Meanwhile, the government also increased spending on a cash basis to clear domestic arrears. The authorities financed much of the widening fiscal deficit by issuing Treasury bills purchased by commercial banks and a US$ 1 billion overdrafts with the RBZ. As domestic borrowing reduced liquidity and crowded out credit to the private sector, demand fell, imports contracted sharply, and economic growth slowed. Good rains are projected to boost growth in 2017 but other sectors remain lackluster. To allow GDP growth to recover in 2017 and beyond, the authorities will need to improve public expenditure efficiency and ensure adequate liquidity in the financial sector. The newly introduced command agriculture program provided farmers with inputs which are to be repaid by delivering grain to the Grain Marketing Board at the end of the growing season. These policies are projected to boost agricultural output in 2017. However, government intervention is both expensive and inefficient, especially the use of price support, as floor prices are set far higher than import competing prices.4 Favorable rains during the 2016/17 agricultural season are expected to drive a robust recovery, and the agricultural sector is projected to make a sizeable contribution to GDP growth in 2017. Improving weather conditions will be complemented by the ongoing suspension of import duties on some fertilizer products through end-2017, and by the ongoing allocation of underutilized land managed by the parastatal ARDA and other government agencies to experienced farmers.

Working Paper (Numbered Series) 116309 JUN 21, 2017
The study focuses on themes and areas that have been identified as highly relevant for the modernization and commercialization of the agriculture sector. ... See More + The study originally aimed to review: agricultural marketing, processing and exports; food safety; agricultural "cooperation," including farmers' groups; agricultural extension and agricultural insurance. This coverage was subsequently modified to: (i) avoid repetition of existing work; (ii) draw more extensively on WBG experience in other countries; (iii) address relevant long-term issues more directly; and (iv) to inform discussion of relevant issues on which little information was available. The proposed review of marketing, processing and exports, an area that has already been well studied – was thus replaced with a review of global experience in developing successful export-led agricultural industries. Similarly, the study of agricultural 'cooperation,' an area also widely studied, was replaced with an analysis of agricultural land markets. Both "cooperation" and land markets are highly pertinent to the need to increase farm size to improve competitiveness. Land markets offer a more structural, long-term response to this problem, however, a response that so far has received little attention. Finally, an analysis of public expenditure on agriculture was added to provide insight into public expenditure on long-term versus short-term sector objectives. The review outlines the elements of a long-term framework based on building a cluster-based, institutional framework for horticultural exports, and suggests the need to prioritize associated development of agricultural extension, food safety, agricultural land markets and agricultural risk management. Horticulture is viewed as a vector for modernization and commercialization, due to its demonstrated potential for exports. The proposed framework would drive growth and change throughout the sector, however, due to the sector-wide impact of support for extension, food safety, land markets and risk management. See Less -

This paper documents the positive link between the noncognitive skills of women farmers and the adoption of a cash crop. The context is Malawi, one of the poorest countries in the world, where the majority of rural households practice subsistence farming. ... See More + The analysis finds that a one standard deviation increase in noncognitive ability related to perseverance is associated with a five percentage point (or 33 percent) increase in the probability of adoption of the main cash crop. This link is not explained by differences across women in education and cognitive skills. It is also not explained by the fact that women with higher noncognitive ability tend to be married to husbands of higher noncognitive ability and education. The effect of female noncognitive skills on adoption is concentrated in patrilocal communities, where women face greater adversity and thus where it would be expected that the returns to such skills would be highest. One main channel through which noncognitive skills seem to work is through the use of productive inputs, including higher levels of labor, fertilizer, and agricultural advice services. See Less -

The Second Rural Productive Partnerships Support Project (Programa de Apoyo a las Alianzas Productivas II - PAAP II) closed in June 2015, leaving the World Bank Group without an active IBRD-funded lending operation in the agricultural sector in Colombia for the first time in more than two decades. ... See More + With agricultural and rural development having been identified as a priority both in the government's national development strategy as well as in the World Bank Group's Country Partnership Framework 2016-21, there is interest from both parties in continuing collaboration in the sector. The purpose of the activity is to: (1) support the ongoing dialogue with the National Planning Department (Departamento de Planeación Nacional - DNP), the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (Ministerio de Agricultura y Desarrollo Rural – MADR) and other key actors responsible for agriculture and rural development; (2) allow the World Bank Group to make available knowledge, data, and tools that can be used by the Government to inform the design and implementation of its new agricultural and rural development strategy; and (3) explore areas for potential future collaboration. The development objective is to explore with the Colombian Government opportunities for the World Bank Group to provide analytical services, technical assistance, and/or financing in support of the Government's agriculture and rural development policies and strategies.

Project Paper RES25092 JUN 01, 2017
Much of the current analysis on agricultural productivity is hampered by the lack of consistent, high quality data on soil health and how it is changing under past and current management. ... See More + Historically, plot-level statistics derived from household surveys have relied on subjective farmer assessments of soil quality or, more recently, publicly available geospatial data. The Living Standards Measurement Study of the World Bank implemented a methodological study in Ethiopia, which resulted in an unprecedented data set encompassing a series of subjective indicators of soil quality as well as spectral soil analysis results on plot-specific soil samples for 1,677 households. The goals of the study, which was completed in partnership with the World Agroforestry Centre and the Central Statistical Agency of Ethiopia, were twofold: (1) evaluate the feasibility of integrating a soil survey into household socioeconomic data collection operations, and (2) evaluate local knowledge of farmers in assessing their soil quality. Although a costlier method than subjective assessment, the integration of spectral soil analysis in household surveys has potential for scale-up. In this study, the first large scale study of its kind, enumerators spent approximately 40 minutes per plot collecting soil samples, not a particularly prohibitive figure given the proper timeline and budget. The correlation between subjective indicators of soil quality and key soil properties, such as organic carbon, is weak at best. Evidence suggests that farmers are better able to distinguish between soil qualities in areas with greater variation in soil properties. Descriptive analysis shows that geospatial data, while positively correlated with laboratory results and offering significant improvements over subject assessment, fail to capture the level of variation observed on the ground. The results of this study give promise that soil spectroscopy could be introduced into household panel surveys in smallholder agricultural contexts, such as Ethiopia, as a rapid and cost-effective soil analysis technique with valuable outcomes. Reductions in uncertainties in assessing soil quality and, hence, improvements in smallholder agricultural statistics, enable better decision-making. See Less -

The objective of the Agricultural Commercialization Project for Malawi is to increase commercialization of agriculture value chain products selected under the project. ... See More + There are four components to the project, the first component being Building Productive Alliances. This component supports the integration of small‐scale and emerging farmers (defined as farmers cultivating not more than 8 ha) into value chains by improving their capacity to finance and execute productivity enhancing investments and respond to the requirements of end‐markets and buyers (off‐takers). The second component is the support investment enabling services. Component two supports improvements in the investment and trade environment that will both deepen and sustain market linkages and improve financing for PAs and POs. By promoting dialogue between the government and private sector, this component supports interaction on subjects leading to the formation of Pas (contracts and enforcement) and improved access to markets (trade facilitation, regulatory inefficiencies, improved agribusiness product standards, and certification for PAs). The third component is the contingency response component. In accordance with OP/BP 10.00, this zero‐budget component establishes a disaster recovery contingency fund that may be triggered in the event of an eligible natural or human‐induced crisis or emergency that has had (or is likely to have) major adverse socio‐economic impacts during the life of the project. If approved by the Bank, resources may be drawn from the unallocated expenditure category and/or the government may request the Bank to re‐categorize and reallocate financing from other project components to cover emergency response and recovery costs. Finally, the fourth component is the project coordination and management. This component finances the PIU, which, given the multisectoral nature of the proposed project, numerous stakeholders, and participation of multiple government ministries, will play a pivotal role in project coordination and management. The PIU will oversee the implementation of project activities, ensure sound fiduciary management of the project (both procurement and financial management), comply with World Bank fiduciary reporting requirements (including submission of a semi‐annual project implementation progress report), carry out M&E, ensure compliance with social and environmental safeguards, and engage in communication and reporting.

The five countries covered in this report share a number of characteristics and are facing similar challenges that justify their being monitored jointly. ... See More + First, they face critical demographic issues that require immediate action to enable them to experience a population dividend rather than a population burden that might foreshadow interminable political and social conflicts in the future. Second, with the exception of Guinea, these are landlocked, low-income Sahelian economies, heavily reliant on the agricultural sector, their main source of revenue and means of subsistence, with a significant livestock sub-sector based in part on traditional pastoral nomadism. Third, they are economically non-diversified. These five countries rely on natural resources exploitation industries-gold for Mali, uranium and oil for Niger, bauxite for Guinea, diamonds for the Central African Republic, and oil for Chad-that account for a rural portion of their output, export income, and public revenue. This dependence on the primary sector makes these economies highly vulnerable to climate-related shocks and to volatility in the price of raw materials. Fourth, each one is struggling to overcome a legacy of political instability and violence, exacerbated by fragile sociopolitical conditions and the severity of regional currency tied to the euro and exerts considerable influence on the macroeconomic policies of its Member States.

This report presents results of the solar resource mapping and photovoltaic power potential evaluation, as a part of a technical assistance, implemented by the World Bank, for the renewable energy development in Indonesia. ... See More + The study has two objectives: (i)Improve the awareness and knowledge of resources for solar energy technologies by producing a comprehensive countrywide data set and maps based on satellite and meteorological modelling. This report evaluates key solar climate features, and geographic and time variability of solar power potential in the country. The outcomes are supported by explanation of the methodology and evaluation of thedata uncertainty. (ii) Provide support information for installation of meteorological stations in Indonesia by identifying and evaluating the most feasible areas. The data used in this report are based on the satellite and meteorological models. Due to insufficient number of high accuracy solar measurements in Indonesia, the data and the outcomes published in this study have higher uncertainty, compared to other regions. The uncertainty of the model outputs, in Indonesia, can be reduced by acquiring high quality measurements at several meteorological stations with specialised solar-measuring equipment. Satellite-based and meteorological models are used for computing solar resource and meteorological data that are suitable for production of high-resolution maps and for use in Geographical Information Systems (GIS). A set of primary data parameters is discussed in the study.The report also provides an indicative analysis of regions and areas where deployment of solar measuring stations could take place. These stations would contribute to the validation of the models and reducing the data uncertainty. Once at least one year of measurements is available the data can be used for adaptation of solar and meteorological models and for detailed analysis of solar climate at representative sites.

The development objective of the Emergency Food and Nutrition Project for South Sudan are: (a) to provide food and nutrition support for the protection of lives and human capital of eligible beneficiaries; and (b) to help farmers a re-engage in agricultural production in selected drought affected areas in South Sudan. ... See More + The proposed EFNSP will focus on two main areas of support: (i) providing emergency support for immediate food and nutrition security requirements, and (ii) assisting farmers to re‐engage in crop and livestock production to meet their own food security requirements. The project consists of three components. The first component, support to human capital and livelihoods protection SDR 31.0 million is to increase access to food for the food insecure and most vulnerable, protect the human capital of children and prevent negative coping strategies by poor households. The drought‐conflict dynamic in South Sudan has generated two broad segments of vulnerable and food insecure populations currently in need of direct food and nutrition support. This component is organized around two sub components as described below. (i) support to unconditional food transfers SDR14.8 million and (ii) support to integrated management of malnutrition SDR16.2 million; The second component, support to re‐engagement in crop and livestock production SDR 5.5 million will help farmers affected by the food scarcity to engage in production over the next cropping season, when favorable rains return. The project will support: (i) purchase and distribution of agricultural inputs and planting materials such as seeds and tools,10 in the form of starter packs; (ii) rebuilding or distribution of assets for postharvest handling and food storage for example household granaries and food storage bins; and (iii) provision of extension services around the package of production inputs and postharvest handling technologies supported by the project. This component divided into two sub-component, (i) support to crop production SDR3.7 million and (ii) support to livestock production SDR1.8 million; The third component, support to project implementation arrangements SDR0.4 million is designed to finance administrative costs of the Project Implementation Unit (PIU), including, financial management, procurement, environment and social safeguards management, monitoring, reporting and evaluation of activities under the project.

Ratings for the Community Agricultural Resource Management and Competitiveness Project for Armenia were as follows: outcomes were satisfactory, risk to development outcome was moderate, Bank performance was satisfactory, and Recipient performance was satisfactory. ... See More + Some lessons learned included: the effectiveness of the community management approach to managing one of the classic common property resources – pastures, while this approach to coastal fisheries has been proven over the past two decades, this project's success is important for establishing this lesson for pastures. Recovery of a local common property natural resource can be achieved in the lifetime of a single project, and that doing so can be used to substantially augment the incomes of project participants. The concurrent support for both pasture management and animal health produces more rapid improvements in livelihoods. It is important to build flexibility into the design of community co-financing requirements. The initial design required communities to provide 50 percent co-financing for agricultural equipment and machinery. At appraisal, several additional components and activities were considered, but were explicitly rejected to avoid adding complexity. Such decisions are difficult, but typically improve the chances of project success. See Less -

The development objective of the Livestock Development and Animal Health Project for Zambia is to improve the productivity of key livestock production systems for targeted female and male smallholder producers in selected areas of the Recipient's territory. ... See More + The second level project restructuring was carried out in November 2015. It included the following changes: (i) consolidation of selected PDO and intermediate level indicators to better capture development impact; and (ii) realigning expenditure by transferring US$2.8 million from livestock infrastructure to animal disease control within the same disbursement category. The purpose of the transfer of resources was to sustain the achievement so far made in reducing animal mortality from diseases such as East Coast Fever (ECF), Contagious Bovine Pleuropneumonia (CBPP), Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) and Newcastle Disease (NCD) from cattle and village chickens respectively. The level of infrastructure directly funded from the project budget was reduced.The remaining challenges that impede the achievement of the PDO include slow or lack of progress in activitiesrelated to sub projects under matching grants and rehabilitation and construction of livestock infrastructure for enhanced provision of livestock and veterinary services. The reasons for the lack of implementation progress in these areas include: (i) delayed procurement of civil works; (ii) failure by selected contractors to provide the performance guarantees; (iii) delays by beneficiary grant recipients to mobilize their 25 percent matching contributions; and (iv) slow disbursements to matching grant recipients. This lack of progress is caused by capacity constraints in the areas of procurement management, business and technical advisory services, and administration of matching grants. Although additional key staff have now been hired for procurement and grant administration, the 12 to 18 month delay in the hiring of the staff caused considerable loss of time in implementing the Procurement Plan and sub-projects under the matching grants.

text: Healthy eating at work – just make it, take it Shelley Jordan March 03, 2015 - 1:28 PM Rushed mornings, no time for a lunch break, food-filled meetings, shift work and limited time to prepare meals ? there's no doubt that workday challenges can make it difficult to eat well. However, the benefits make it worth the effort. Eating well at work can boost concentration, productivity, and vitality. It can also reduce missed days of work by helping to improve overall health. Interior Health's Registered Dietitians want to inspire all workers to eat better at work and make other positive changes that support a healthier workplace and nutrition environment. "Studies show that eating healthy at work not only benefits workers – employers benefit too," says Linda Boyd, Registered Dietitian with Interior Health's Community Nutrition Program. "Healthier employees can mean cost reductions in a company's employee health insurance plans, fewer disability days, and a reduction in health-related lost productivity." Employers can support healthy eating at work by providing a refrigerator, microwave, and comfortable eating area for staff to have their meals. Offering healthy food and beverages at meetings and celebrating milestones with healthy choices like a fresh fruit bouquet help demonstrate an employer's commitment to health. Practical tips for planning healthy food at meetings and events can be found at Eat Smart – Meet Smart (http://www.health.gov.bc.ca/healthyeating/pdf/eat-smart-meet-smart.pdf ). Many Canadian workers say eating healthy meals and snacks while at work can be challenging. "One way of meeting this challenge is to 'Make it. Take it.' There are many time saving and healthy choices you can make at home and bring to work," says Linda. "Drive past the drive-thru, don't stop at your usual pastry and coffee pit stop; instead, make breakfast ahead." Making and taking food to work can be quick and easy. Linda suggests pre-portioning individual servings of fruit and yogurt, or trail mix to grab n' go as you head out the door.

"Theremin ambassador, Miles Brown — best known as the mastermind behind horror synth outfit The Night Terrors — has just released his debut solo album Séance Fiction. Cold and minimal, lead single "Apparition" is a hypnotically entrancing twist on his previous work, with Pet Shop pop flirtations shifting the track from it's introspectively bleakness towards anthemic inclusiveness."- Rolling Stone
"Brown's Theremin wails like a swooning disco siren deep in the grips of demonic possession."- Mess and Noise
"The band is centred around virtuosic theremin player Miles Brown, classically trained, to watch him perform with this remarkable instrument is a thing of beauty…The Night Terrors effortlessly bridge worlds. From a grand old instrument originally built in 1929 to almost current day analogue electronics to an instrument you can't touch that was also invented in the early 1920's. From film soundtrack music to stadium rock, from the electronic to the gothic. They're making darkly complex and eerily compelling fusions that not only defy easy categorisation but also seem to plug straight into the emotions."- Cyclic Defrost
"Miles Brown is the Night Terrors' notional leader and, if you're prepared to wear the pretension of the concept, the auteur. His command of the theremin is freakish – compared to Brown, Jon Spencer is a kindergarten student playing on a toy xylophone. The synth melodies are somewhere between celestial and pan-galactic. It's 1985 meets 2001, Harold Faltermeyer on a cryptographic bender with Carl Sagan, Krautrock on a New Age journey into a higher level of cerebral understanding."- Beat Magazine
"Miles gets behind that theremin, starts waving his hand around with a solemn look on his face and somehow everything turns into an expression of delightfully creepy, slithering beauty." – Terrorizer
"The Night Terrors' ace in the hole, of course, is the masterful theremin work of band progenitor Miles Brown. Live, his right hand is transfixing to the point of initial distraction – tones telekinetically extracted from antenna. The novel, retro-futurist stigma associated with the instrument dissipates instantly as Brown (trained in the craft by Lydia Kavina, regarded as the world's leading thereminist) conjures steady melody in an aural sphere somewhere amongst soprano and violin." – Mess and Noise
"Unsurprisingly for such an accomplished musician and composer, musically this is all top-drawer stuff…Séance Fiction is music to move about to, whether it's jumping about like a loon or just moping about forwards and backwards like goths did in the 1990s… but however you react to it, a kinetic reaction is pretty much inevitable." – 6 Days From Tomorrow
"Miles Brown of The Night Terrors cuts an intimidating figure as he stands poised gracefully before his theremin, deftly creating sonic bliss with the tightly controlled movements of his hands."- The AU Review
"Melbourne's horror dwellers The Night Terrors continue delving into the darkest recesses of the cinematic nightmare on second LP Spiral Vortex. Walking a tightrope between garishness and genuine tension, albeit in a lush Argento-esque fashion, the trio remain a potent force. Miles Brown's theremin theatrics continues to amaze, while Damian Coward's pummelling drums plays like an apocalyptic metronome. The key to Spiral Vortex's success though is the synth lines devised by Brown and Sarah Lim – at once archaic and futurist (Lasers For Eyes), macabre and sensuous (Monster), with the slightest rays of light piercing through the darkness." – The Music
"Miles Brown was on fire. Thanks to a thumping mix and vibed-up crowd, Miles brought an almost amphetamine-fuelled intensity to his electronics and theremin set. Waves of industrial arpeggiated synth grooves built and built until the crowd actually started moving, some despite themselves. It was euphoric, in its minor key, robots-have-stolen-our-future way." – Beat Magazine
"Exo Records is good records. Night Terrors music is good music. TNT has a serious Goblin-vibe happening here. They could easily score a horror film set in American Apparel. I could picture tram-loads of Gentlewomen with the same body shape, clothes, opinions and haircuts walking around the racks in a zombie like state, just tripping on all the offensive colours and price tags. 10/10" – VICE Magazine
"One of Melbourne's few thereminists, Miles Brown certainly captures the crowd's imagination as he claws at thin air at what appears to be an invisible instrument to produce a wild electronic sound" – Drum Media
"There's a plethora of records out now from a legion of labels revisiting the unsettling soundtracks to many a pulpy horror or science fiction film, and what The Night Terrors do is take this all of this as a base to build upon – and they do this in such a staggering fashion that they are almost a genre in themselves, such is the way that they occupy their remarkable niche. " – 6 Days From Tomorrow
"If you want to play in a rock band without a singer you need musical ideas with the strength to carry the music. The Night Terrors have got it in spades….tracks from the new album "Back to Zero" are crammed with epic melodies, cinematic textures and and the even odd moment of sunshine. A truly original sound. I bought the album." – AIR Charts
"I put the CD on when I get home and when it reaches its conclusion, get up and press play again. It's fucking phenomenal. Like the sound track to a video game made in the eighties but set in the future. A game of not just linear laser battles of light ships, but an involved personal account of the struggles endured by a character in just such a setting. A veritable space opera covering love, loss and thrilling light speed chase sequences that is exciting as well as all-enthralling. Don't listen to this CD unless you have the time to sit down, absorb and fully enjoy it. The Night Terrors are my new favourite band. Back to Zero is my new favourite CD." – Beat Magazine
"The Night Terrors' debut full-length album Back To Zero introduces itself somewhat similarly to one of Goblin's soundtrack releases or Jean Michel Jarre's original Oxygéne record. Within seconds the listener is transported to a world created entirely by the Melbourne band's synth, drum, bass and theremin combination – a place where wolves fly rocket ships protecting helpless planet folk from intergalactic volcanic eruptions (or any arrangement of associated descriptors)…The Night Terrors' Back To Zero is a singularly impressive 66-minute album that should prove to be a success with any audience across the globe. 5/5" – Time Out

Went to Santorini (along with Naxos, Crete) for our honeymoon. Decided to stay in both Enigma Apts & Suites and their sister property Astra Apts & Suites (in Imerovigli) after reading the reviews on Trip advisor.
From the get-go our e-mail correspondence with Chrisoula for the booking process was seamless, friendly and professional. We booked the private hot tub suite (suite 8) for three nights. A driver met us and picked us up at the ferry during a very rainy day (their first in months!) We arrived and the bell hop promptly (without missing a beat) took our very heavy bags and took them into Enigma and to our suite. As I'm sure you've read in other reviews, Enigma is quite a feat to navigate. It's built entirely on the cliffside. You must be limber, not afraid to climb and you cannot have a tinge of vertigo. There are a lot of stairs and they are STEEP. Suite 8, is at the very bottom of the hotel property - and you have to walk down about 6 separate sets of stairs to reach it. (in three days we got the work out of champions - and we're healthy, active early thirty-somethings)
Not to be redundant, but Chrisoula knows her job and she does it well - She's informative (great with tailored suggestions for food, entertainment, travel), friendly, down-to-earth and super helpful. The staff and her work like a well-oiled machine. The server/bell hop was always ready with a smile and delivered our delicious breakfast down those stairs and then up our stairs in our suite to our balcony. Impressive. The hotel is small, 8 suites. All very close to each other. Even ours, was located directly next to another suite (without balcony) - which didn't feel very private. The way the rooms are staggered -it's difficult for any of them to be entirely isolated - so keep that in mind. Suite 8 is the only one that has a completely private balcony and hot tub - and whose balcony is only accessible through the suite itself.
The suite was quite large with a great sitting room, kitchen (small fridge, two burners, utensils, glasses and plates), flat screen t.v., CD stereo/radio, bathrobes, large closet with a small safe, and two bedrooms on the second floors. One in the back (built into the rock/cliff) and another in front right outside the balcony. Cute Mediterranean decor, tile floors, candles, airy. (See pictures). The balcony and the views from it MADE our time at enigma. It was ours exclusively and it was très romantique! We spent 80% of the time there eating our breakfast and enjoying the views, or relaxing with wine at night in the hot tub gawking at the sun setting (it was different every night). We were greeted with a complimentary bottle of wine and waters on our arrival - and the daily included breakfast delivered at your suite at the time of your choosing (they even call to confirm that morning) was a lovely touch. Great little selections like cheeses, tomato, cucumber, breads, fruits - Greek yogurt and honey. Such a sweet, calming way to start the day.
The cons I list below are not deal-breakers by any means, but for the price you pay - I really expected more. The few negatives: the room itself - though big - felt at times a bit claustrophobic - mostly in the bedrooms and definitely in the bathroom - The room is built in a tunnel shape and as a 5'9 girl - it felt slightly enclosed. Getting to and from the balcony, required you to walk up the stairs and I hit my head a lot on the close curved ceiling. The main bedroom in the back was recessed into the rock face and once the lights were out - it was pitch dark -- and a little more scary than cozy.
The bathroom was a let down - I wish it had been a little more luxurious and bigger. No windows, no bath, only an open, nice sized shower with good water pressure. The mirror is this wierd, luminiscent-lit mirror that is tagged with the Enigma logo. Also, the toilet smelled a bit - perhaps it's just the plumbing and the way the bathroom is inset into the cliff - but it never smelled 'fresh' in there. The mattress and the bedding weren't anything special. The bed was a queen - medium to hard with simple sheets with a very light coverlet.. Wish we had had more pillows and perhaps a light duvet - or a cashmere blanket?
Lastly, (and I can't speak for the other rooms' hot tubs) - the hot tub is somewhat of a misnomer. The tub was a good size - deep and could fit at least four people. The problem? Our hot tub never really got "hot". It was always heated, but the water temperature never went above warm. We did ask Chrisoula about that, but she said the heater was in fact, operating.
Everything else aside, we really enjoyed our stay. The service was impeccable - the views truly unbeatable - and I loved our private balcony suite. The walk up and down the stairs? Unique- ah - but at least we burned off our indulgent meals. Fira (or Thira) - for me wasn't the ideal town for us. It is in the heart of Santorini, the main bus terminal is located there and it's where all the cruise ships dock (sometimes five ships a day!) and unload their passengers. During the day (and this is nearing low season!!), the little town was packed and bustling - ATMs often emptied of money.
The town is LITTERED with jewelry stores, overpriced goods and souvenir stores (buy your wine at the grocery store - specialty stores price up everything by at least 15 to 20 Euros) and it's just entirely too touristy for our taste. I am glad we ended our trip staying in Imerovigli at Astra (a half hour walk from Fira) where it was a little more authentic, and much calmer. If you want to be where the action is, where the party/drinking is (and the better restaurants, too) - stay in Fira. Also, we never rented any transportation: walked everywhere or took the bus (that can take you everywhere you need to go: the beaches (meh! not ANYWHERE as nice as Caribbean beaches), the country side/vineyards (never went - we found Greek wine mediocre), and of course, Imerovigli - (although you can get there by foot) and gorgeous Oia (go there early in the morning so you can avoid the crowds)
Astra organized a problem transfer to their sister property Astra (although NOT free of charge, as it once was - we quickly found out) -
Last two little points: Enigma lends out laptops free of charge and the rooms have internet access which was a big plus (especially on our rainy night when the cable t.v. wasn't working) - also be sure to have a lot of money on hand because they do not accept credit cards here - and with quickly emptying ATMs, we had to stockpile cash. If you are considering staying at Astra - please read my review there...

Tobii Technology (http://www.tobii.com/), the global leader in eye tracking and gaze interaction, today announced the release of Tobii X2 Eye Trackers (http://www.tobii.com/x2-60), a new line of highly portable and more affordable research products powered by the latest generation of Tobii's award-winning eye-tracking technology that will dramatically expand insights and applications for scientific and commercial research of human behavior.
"We are excited to deliver a major innovation for the international research community through a lightweight, portable and more affordable product that provides high-quality insights," said Tom Englund, president of analysis solutions at Tobii. "We believe the new Tobii X2 Eye Trackers will eliminate the previously existing barrier of cost and, through its revolutionary ease of use, allow a broader range of researchers to benefit from the immense value eye tracking offers in understanding human behavior. This will create new research opportunities and discoveries in science, health, education, product development, usability testing, packaging design, advertising, branding and more."
The Tobii X2 product line comprises eye-tracking research systems at 30 or 60 Hz frame rates. Modular design and different hardware options accommodate a wide variety of study designs and stimuli dimensions.
The new product line represents a major leap forward in the evolution of eye tracking. Features and benefits of the Tobii X2 Eye Trackers include:
· Maximum portability – the X2 Eye Trackers are the smallest, most light-weight eye-tracking research systems on the market, powered by only one USB cable, making it easy to study human behavior outside the lab, in participants' homes, clinics, schools or malls.
· Extreme versatility — modular design and different hardware options enable a wide variety of research study configurations and stimuli presentation options, from laptops and PC monitors to tablets, TVs, projections, control panels, ATMs and store shelves.
· Easy to use — ease of setup and operation makes it possible for anyone, from research novice to tech expert, to use the eye tracker.
· High authenticity — a revolutionary large track box (the physical space in which a participant can be tracked), allows participants to be tracked at their most natural distance from a screen or stimuli and move freely and naturally, lending to a more natural experience for the research participant and more valid results.
· Ultimate tracking performance — researchers can rely on an easy-to-use method for gathering highly accurate data throughout the entire track box and unparalleled capabilities for tracking a variety of users, regardless of ethnicity, glasses, etc
"I love the lightweight and small form factor of the Tobii X2 Eye Tracker, which makes it really easy to use every day around the lab and in the field," said Jennifer Romano Bergstrom, Ph.D. and user experience project leader, Fors Marsh Group, USA. "It is quick and simple to set up and use. With this solution, Tobii makes it really easy to get started with eye tracking."
Tobii X2 Eye Trackers are compatible with Tobii Studio, the leading eye-tracking analysis and visualization software, and other applications that build on the Tobii Analytics Software Development Kit (Tobii SDK) (http://www.tobii.com/en/eye-tracking-research/global/products/software/tobii-software-development-kit/) 3.0.

PTSD is associated with several abnormalities in brain structure and function. However, as researcher Roger Pitman explains, "Although it is tempting to conclude that these abnormalities were caused by the traumatic event, it is also possible that they were pre-existing risk factors that increased the risk of developing PTSD upon the traumatic event's occurrence."
Drs. Kasai and Yamasue along with their colleagues sought to examine this association in a new study published in the March 15th issue of Biological Psychiatry.
The authors measured the gray matter density of the brains of combat-exposed Vietnam veterans, some with and some without PTSD, and their combat-unexposed identical twins using a technology called magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The detailed images provided by the MRI scans then allowed the investigators to compare specific brain regions of the siblings.
They found that the gray matter density of the pregenual anterior cingulate cortex, an area of the brain involved in emotional functioning, was reduced in veterans with PTSD, but not in their twins who had not experienced combat. According to Dr. Pitman, "this finding supports the conclusion that the psychological stress resulting from the traumatic stressor may damage this brain region, with deleterious emotional consequences."
John H. Krystal, M.D., Editor of Biological Psychiatry and affiliated with both Yale University School of Medicine and the VA Connecticut Healthcare System, discusses the need for this kind of research because of two separate sets of prior findings: "On the one hand, compelling data from animal research indicates that stress can cause brain atrophy and even neural death in some brain regions. On the other hand, the volume of several brain regions are highly heritable and small brain volumes, presumably related to reduced function, in the hippocampus may increase stress reactivity or impair the capacity for resilience."
He adds that findings from this study "suggest that volume reductions in [the anterior cingulate cortex] associated with PTSD arise as a consequence of stress exposure rather than emerging as a heritable trait," leaving one to conclude that "the extent to which particular genes and environmental exposures interact to shape the development of the brain thus appears to be complex and region-specific."
