Garson Persian Restaurant offers a variety of awesome dishes and some fine belly dancing too. Do to a lack of time I will not write much about them, but I do believe the photos speak for themselves. The food is delicious and fresh as can be! For more information visit them here http://www.garsonhouston.com/
I have long loved Greek Food and Olympia Grill at Pier 21 fills that need when I am relaxing down on Galveston Island. The Greek Sampler offers a great selection at a reasonable price and best of all it is delicious. Pictured here is the Taste Of Olympia platter featuring hummus, tzatziki, falafel & dolma, Greek salad, spanakopita, gyro slices, pastitsio, moussaka & vegetables. Also pictured is a dessert platter sampler. The views are outstanding and one can often see the cruise ships leave the Port of Galveston and the clipper ship Elissa.

The Houston Bicycle Museum is a really great place to view racing bikes, BMX bikes, recumbent bikes, historical bikes, lowrider bikes, art bikes, etc. Interestingly, I just learned of their imminent closure until they find a new space. New spots for the museum have rent costs three times more expensive which could pose problems. They have to leave their current site by October 18, 2018 due to a parking lot expansion for the Holocaust Museum. I really hope they find funding and a new location because the history behind bikes is really amazing. If I were a billionaire, I would give them a million A.S.A.P., but sigh, I am not. For more information visit their website here http://www.houstonbicyclemuseum.org/
Here are a few photos from my visit and some of my favorite bikes. A chopper, a wooden one, an artsy one, a Asian style one, a musical one, a lowrider one, Lance Armstrong and Tour de France, and a room view.
The Star Drug Store has been around for over 130 years serving Galveston Island residents. They have food, malts, shakes, and banana splits just like you would find in the 50's. If you want nostalgia and a feeling that you have stepped back in time, or just a place to experience history, this is a must do on your bucket list. Here are a few photos from my stop.

The Zilker Botanical Garden is what I envision if I were in Heaven with its herb garden, prehistoric garden, cactus and succulent garden, butterfly garden, rose garden, oriental garden, green garden, and pioneer village. I have been many places and for a $2 entrance fee I thought it to be of one of the best values ever. There are so many excellent photo opportunities in the garden areas. It is peaceful, relaxing, and beautiful. I walked it during a day that had 102 degree temperatures and felt totally comfortable. This garden will show you how important canopy cover is to maintaining cool temperatures on the ground even during extreme heat.

Hamilton Pool Preserve is considered one of the top summer swimming destinations in Texas. Thankfully, you can only enter with reservations to protect the environment from over use and damage. To see it in person and swim in the clear emerald-green waters is a real treat, as is the hike along Hamilton Creek to the Pedernales River. Going there you get a sense of what life might have been like in the seventeen or eighteen hundreds before modern piping, showers, housing, etc. It is peaceful, tranquil, and really enjoyable. Here are some photos from Hamilton Pool and the hike along Hamilton Creek. For more information about reservations click here: https://parks.traviscountytx.gov/find-a-park/hamilton-pool
Bastrop State Park is a great place that has a lot to offer, but with a changed landscape. I visited in March of 2010 and took photos. Recently, I had a chance to visit again and see the damage caused by the great fire of 2011. I was amazed at the damage as well as all the regrowth. I imagine with no further damage Bastrop State Park will be back to itself by the time I retire. Fire is a dangerous thing especially during drought. Please use caution. The first four photos are from my 2010 visit and the last four from my recent June 2018 visit for comparison.

Critic Slams Mike Rowe for Being "Right Wing", Responds With Powerful Message
Every week I feel like I should be writing Mike Rowe a letter for his many lessons on compassion, especially when dealing with hostile "fans".
All the guy does is encourage people into picking up high-paying, skilled labor jobs, and yet somehow people still find a way to throw hate at him.
In one of his "off the wall" posts, Mike brings up the notion that in today's culture, we have a hard time separating identities from ideas. Is he wrong?
This idea that a person can't have a good idea based on who he/she does is rampant in society. We scoff at celebrities who comment on the political climate because "that's not their job," as though our job is to tell them that.
People who we disagree with, or dislike, are completely capable of having good ideas. The reason our country is so divided is because there's a genuine belief that the "other side" is hateful, regardless of what party you align with.
Until we realize that we are all on the same side, trying to make the world a better place, then we will keep bickering, and pointing fingers at "them".
We could all take a page from Mike's playbook, and be slow to anger, and quick to understanding.
Russell Borders writes…
Mike Rowe, you claim to champion blue collar concerns from a bafflingly "right wing" perspective. This is irreconcilable on its face. True blue collar construction jobs are absolutely infested by illegal labor. Please address this issue because a goodly portion of your fan base knows the truth.
To which Mike Rowe responded…
Hi Russell,
Thank you for such an intriguing combination of sentences. I've re-read them several times, and I still can't figure out if you're a liberal who's baffled by my "right-wing" perspective, or a conservative who's baffled by my stance on illegal immigration. Either way, I'm sorry for your bafflement, and happy to answer your question. But first, a few questions of my own.
How do you feel about Republicans who support gay marriage, and Democrats who oppose abortion? What about women who voted for Trump, and black people who reject affirmative action?
Are you baffled by them, in the same way you're baffled by me? I mean, how do you determine that which is "irreconcilable on it's face," from that which simply doesn't fit into one of your predetermined boxes?
To be clear – I'm a fan of blue-collar workers; I hope that's obvious. Dirty Jobs was a love-letter to hard work, and mikeroweWORKS is a non-profit, apolitical foundation focused on reinvigorating skilled labor. Both endeavors evolved from a genuine appreciation of tradespeople, and my honest attempts to encourage that appreciation in others. However, I have never claimed to "champion blue-collar concerns." Nor would I. That's the job of unions and lobbyists and other advocates paid to speak on their behalf. The only thing I champion, are blue-collar opportunities. And the reasons why are simple.
As I type this, 6.2 million jobs are currently vacant, the majority of which require training – not an expensive, four-year degree. And yet, we're still telling our kids that college is the best path for the most people. The result? $1.4 trillion dollars of outstanding student loans, a 50% college dropout rate, a legion of debt-ridden graduates who can't find work in their chosen field, and millions of empty positions in dozens of technical industries, including the construction trades. In other words, the skills gap is not a "blue-collar concern," or a "white collar concern;" it's an American concern.
This is why I've spent the last ten years challenging many of the myths and misperceptions that discourage people from exploring a career in the trades. This is why my foundation has awarded millions of dollars in work-ethic scholarships. And this is why I push back when people say that my beliefs are "irreconcilable" with my "whiteness," my "maleness," my "tax-bracket," my presumed political perspective, or some other aspect of my identity that has nothing at all to do with my efforts to help solve a serious problem.
Just yesterday, someone said I was a hypocrite for questioning the cost of higher education. Why? Because I'm a college graduate, and therefor "unqualified to judge." (Never mind the fact that my degree in 1984 cost $12,000, and the same degree today from the same school costs $80K.) Last week, someone else called me a "phony" because I used to sing in the opera. Because they couldn't reconcile "Dirty-Jobs-Mike" with "Opera-Singing-Mike," they concluded I was a fake, and therefore not worth listening to.
It's easy to laugh at such broken logic when it's applied to the credibility of a B-list celebrity, but apply it elsewhere, and it's not so funny. "Yes, The Declaration of Independence is a fine document, full of transformational ideas. But wait…it was written by a white guy? A rich, white guy? A rich white guy who owned slaves? Tear it up!"
I'm afraid we're losing our ability to separate ideas from identities. We seem unable to reconcile the most basic of things. As my grandmother would say, we're "throwing the baby out with the bathwater." (Or the statue of the baby, for that matter.) In other words, Russell, even if I was a "champion of blue collar concerns" with a "right-wing perspective," so what? Do you really think it's impossible for a man with a conservative worldview to care about blue-collar concerns? If so, then I'm going to suggest your Reconciliation Meter, is badly broken.
Now – on to your question. You're right – I haven't said much about the impact of illegal labor on the construction industry. Not because I support illegal immigration; I don't. As a rule, I'm opposed to most things when they're preceded by the word "illegal." But if you're right – if "true, blue collar construction jobs" are "absolutely infested by illegal labor," how bad do you suppose the labor shortage will become when all the illegal workers are deported?
Right now, American construction workers are retiring three times faster than they're being replaced. In many parts of country, faster than that. Hundreds of thousands of positions are vacant in the construction industry, and many more vacancies are looming in the wake of recent natural disasters. So, when you say that the industry is "infested with illegal labor," you might be right. But it's also infested with something else – opportunity. Honestly, which do you find more concerning?
Bottom line – no one knows where the next generation of skilled workers will come from. And that begs an inconvenient question: If unemployed American workers are standing by to pick up the slack when this "infestation" is corrected, why aren't these same unemployed American workers flocking to fill those open positions right now?
Some will say it's because the pay is lousy, but that's a myth, easily debunked. Skilled jobs pay a good wage, and often lead to six-figure salaries and the formation of countless small businesses. My own foundation has helped hundreds of aspiring welders, plumbers, carpenters, and HVAC technicians get the necessary training, and I can assure you, those men and women have more work than they can possibly complete. Point is, these jobs are not vacant because of illegal labor, low pay, long hours, or lousy benefits. They're vacant because they look like work – hard work. And I'm afraid a lot of Americans have come to the conclusion that hard work is best done by somebody else.
This is my opinion. You can call it "right-wing," or "left wing," or any other label that suits you. Just remember this: every day, the skills gap is getting wider, the college debt is growing, and the construction industry is becoming more reliant on illegal labor. No amount of reconciliation will change the terrible arithmetic we now face, and no amount of blame will help you when your power goes off, or your air-conditioner craps the bed, or your toilet succumbs to Newton's second law. Because even if you could magically eliminate all the illegal labor today, how are you going to persuade Americans to learn the necessary skills tomorrow?
My plan, for what it's worth, is to tell the truth. Most people have no idea how the skilled trades can lead to a prosperous career. I think if more Americans learn the facts about the opportunities that currently exist, the skills gap might start close. If I'm right, I think that would be good news for liberals, conservatives, progressives, independents, and anyone else who shares my addiction to a reliable infrastructure. If I'm wrong, well…how much damage can one guy do, talking about good jobs that actually exist?
Anyway, those are my "concerns," Russell. If you share them, I'd welcome your support. (In fact, I'm pretty sure I could "reconcile" your generous donation at mikeroweworks.org)

The Asom Gana Parishad (AGP) finalised a pre-election understanding with the BJP late on Tuesday, barely two months after walking out of the parties' alliance in the Assam government over differences regarding the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill.
BJP national general secretary Ram Madhav posted on Twitter: "After discussion, BJP and AGP have decided to work together in the coming Parliament election in Assam to defeat Congress. Announced it at Guwahati in [the] presence of Himanta Biswa Sarma of BJP and Atul Bora and Keshav Mahanta of AGP. BPF [Bodoland People's Front] will be [the] 3rd partner in [the] alliance [.]"
Sarma, a senior Minister in the Assam government, subsequently tweeted: "Happy to inform ~ from today 3 AGP ministers who had submitted their resignations from Assam government will resume office. Also glad to share that @BJP4Assam #AGP & Bodoland People's Front have sealed alliance for upcoming #LokSabhaElections2019."
Trouble had been brewing in the AGP-BJP alliance due to the Citizenship Bill from long before their break-up was officially announced. In December 2018, the AGP had written to BJP president Amit Shah warning that it would walk out of the alliance if the Bill was passed in Parliament. That same month, the AGP contested the panchayat elections on its own, and BJP leaders sharply attacked the AGP during campaign speeches.
The Bill, which was passed by Lok Sabha on January 8 and triggered massive outrage across the Northeast, aims to make non-Muslim minority immigrants from three neighbouring countries, Bangladesh, Afghanistan and Pakistan, eligible for Indian citizenship via comparatively relaxed norms.
As per the Assam Accord of 1985, any person who entered Assam after midnight of March 24, 1971, will be identified as a foreigner. The AGP said that the Bill posed a threat to the indigenous people of Assam, and violated the basic principles of the Assam Accord.
Explained: Who is Thota Narasimhan; how does his leaving impact TDP?
The Bill lapsed after it was not tabled in Rajya Sabha. However, days later, on February 17, BJP president Amit Shah told a rally in Assam that the party "will again bring the Bill". BJP leaders in Assam maintained that the party's ideological commitment towards bringing the Bill remained intact.
Despite the AGP having returned to the BJP, it remains to be seen how the two parties bridge their differences on the Citizenship Bill — and how the AGP justifies to the people its move to ally with the BJP despite the party having said that it was not abandoning the Bill. That said, the alliance will surely benefit the BJP by ensuring that the non-Congress vote is not divided.
The AGP has its roots in the Assam Movement, the six-year-long anti-foreigner movement that led to the signing of the historic Assam Accord by the leaders of the agitation with the Rajiv Gandhi government.
In the 2016 elections to the 126-member Assam Assembly, the BJP and AGP had together won 75 seats (the BJP 61, AGP 14), with ally Bodoland People's Front picking up another 12. The BJP and AGP had come together with the agenda of overthrowing the Congress government.
The AGP had contested the 2014 Lok Sabha elections on its own. It got around 4% of the vote, and failed to win even one of the state's 14 seats. The BJP got around 37% of the vote, and won seven seats. Badruddin Ajmal's AIDUF and the Congress won three seats each, and an Independent won one.
The AGP and BJP had fought the 2009 elections together, and won one and four seats respectively.

Our Mayor's Air Quality Fund (MAQF) is a £22 million fund over 10 years to support projects by London boroughs to improve air quality.
Mayor's Air Quality Fund
Projects supported in the third round of the MAQF were announced by the Mayor on 7 June 2019. In this round he is supporting four Low Emission Neighbourhoods (more detail on these below) and 11 other innovative air quality projects. The 11 projects are:
- Zero Emission Zone (ZEZ) – an initiative to restrict access to only the cleanest vehicles in the "City Cluster", the densely populated and heavily developed eastern corner of the City of London
- Redbridge School Streets – timed road closures outside five schools in Redbridge to reduce pupil's exposure to pollution, increase safety, and encourage walking to school
- Camden Cargo Bike Network – a programme of extended loans of cargo bikes to help businesses make the switch from polluting vehicles wherever possible
- Idling Action – a project to take action on idling (including enforcement), spanning 27 boroughs
- Clean Air Thames – a project to retrofit 11 river vessels, including tugs and passenger transport, cutting their emissions by up to 90 per cent
- South London Construction Consolidation Centre – an initiative to consolidate construction deliveries across six south London boroughs, cutting at least 150 construction vehicle movements per day
- Non-Road Mobile Machinery Zone enforcement – a pan-London project to inspect construction sites in every borough to ensure they are using the cleanest construction equipment
- Healthy Streets Everyday – a project spanning 16 boroughs, which will deliver 250 car free and pedestrianisation initiatives or events over three years
- Zero Emissions Network (ZEN) Phase 3 – establishing ZENs in Hackney, Islington and Tower Hamlets. ZENs provide support, advice, events and small grants to help businesses reduce their emissions
- Hammersmith Zero Emissions Network – support for businesses to switch to zero/low emission vehicles in Hammersmith
- Enhanced street cleaning to cut particulate matter (PM2.5) pollution – new approaches to tackling highly polluted streets and pollution hot spots by investigating how street cleaning techniques can be used to improve air quality.
The fund is currently closed for applications and will reopen again in Autumn 2021 (for projects of three years' duration).

Spring UpDate- Getting Ready
Apr 22, 2012
Hello Friends and Family,
Just checking in with everyone. I know it has been an extended amount of time since our last update on our travels and such. Hope this check- in finds everyone doing good, and enjoying the early Spring we got handed to us on a silver platter.
As most of you all know, I went back to work last August at DENSO, to help earn a little extra traveling money. Well, that contract ended this past Friday (4/13). It was a lot of fun being back to work with my buddies and close friends. I also had the pleasure of making a few new friends along the way. Thanks DENSO for a tremendous and challenging eight months. The going away "again" lunch you guys gave was a hoot. I told Linda and Ted that I am always available in the future to help, and I meant that with all my heart.
Now that we have the time, Chris and I can think about getting back on the road again. Of course, I have to contend with taking Chemotherapy again. We started Chemo again back in Feb and the treatments will not end until Mid July…so, in the meantime, between the monthly treatment, we will do what we can to enjoy the open road.
Here is the latest:
This week we attended the Festival of Nations out at Dollywood. Nice shows and the crowd was down. We will try to get back out there a couple more times this month to catch shows we haven't seen yet. I always enjoy the food during this time. I tried the German Wurst Dog and Chris tried the Chinese Chicken and between the two we enjoyed. Maybe we can run into some of you guys out there this month.
Our road trip plans are coming together a little bit each week. We are scheduled to be at Fort Wilderness at Disney the last week in May. We will take the motor home and camp during this time. My son Greg, his wife Karen, two of my Grandsons; Brady and Nich, will be travelling down with us in the CONCORD. Six folks and a dog in the CONCORD. This will be a good time of bonding to say the least. Chris and I will be at Fort Wilderness and Greg and others will be at the Music and Sports Resort.
While we are there we hope to do a lot of walking and biking in the camp. Chris and I are trying hard not to go to any of the theme parks. We are just wanting to kick back and enjoy the campground which in itself is a fine resort and fun place to do things. Maybe we will just ride all the boats and trams to each resort to get the feel of being a tourist. The transportation passes come with staying in the resort and I think is a lot of fun to just ride all the different modes of transport…tram, ferry boat, bus etc.
Before we load up and head out to Orlando we have a lot of maintenance to do on the CONCORD.
I just mounted a THREE bike carrier to the tow bar and it looks just great. Bikes are needed and recommended to haul with you when camping. You never know when you will need an alternate mode of transportation and it is always a great way to get some exercise after eating all those hotdogs and marshmallows.
One maintenance item needed is cleaning the exterior of the CONCORD. So, I started waxing her today and I think it will take about a week to finish, if I do a section at a time. Don't want to overdo it on my first week off from work.
Hope to have the rig de-winterized by the end of next week then will need to sanitize and fill the fresh water tanks. Then charge the RV toilet and make sure all the electrical systems are go, including the Generator, A/C and reefer units. On board TV and Sat systems are the last items to check.
Then Chris and I will set down and do a "loading plan" for the CONCORD. Every spot will have something in it, since we will gone for over a week. We will not be able to do any grocery / food shopping while we are in the resort/camp, so we will have to haul everything we need with us on this run. We will not have our "TOAD" (towed car) with us to go outside the park, so, we will have to be self- sufficient.
Speaking of food: We are wanting to try some (new) HAMBURGER HELPERS on this trip, to see if they are worthy. The packages don't take up much space and are light weight. Have heard they make some really good meals out of them. Of course, we plan on taking in some of the shows there and maybe we can catch a really good meal that way. In the meantime, we plan on cooking on the grill a lot.
If any of you have stayed at Fort Wilderness and have any suggestions please send them out to us for us to consider and try. We stayed at Fort Wilderness back in 2006 and we really enjoyed it.
So, To all my friends and family that are RV'ers and camping enthusiast, please let me know what your plans are for the coming camping season and maybe we can hook up. Chris and I would love to do that some time.
I know I haven't made a lot sense in this update, but I promise I will keep everyone in the loop as the CONCORD starts turning her big wheels. As always, please, keep us in your prayers, always being mindful of our Lord's great love and grace toward all of us.
Make sure you make an entry in the guest log to let us know you where here!!!
In memory of Mom and Dad….The Adventure continues…………………………………………
Later Alligators,
ArchieandChris (and Toby the travelling pup)

The May 2010 conference, to be held in Auschwitz/Oświęcim, forms part of the series of annual meetings on the history of Nazi concentration camps started in 1994 (with exemption of 2009), organised by the varying groups of participants themselves. The workshop creates a forum for students and scientists from various disciplines who research or work on the history and post Nazi history of NS concentration camps as well as the policies of remembrance and cultural commemoration.
As in previous years the 2010 workshop will take place closely linked to a memorial: the location will be the Auschwitz‐Birkenau State Museum. The 2000 Stockholm International Forum on the Holocaust put forward the final statement that "the Holocaust must always remain rooted in the collective remembrance and shall continue to be of
universal significance for all time''. The workshop will take this as an imperative. It will mainly focus on problems regarding cultural commemoration and will be inspecting processes of europeanisation, internationalisation and unversalisation of the Holocaust in respect to their impact on concentration camp research and memorial work. Furthermore, the workshop will integrate research perspectives on the history of concentration camps, the Holocaust and other Nazi crimes against humanity.
Under the title ''New perspectives on concentration camp research'' the 16th workshop proposes three subject themes for discussion.
(1) Location
(2) Occurrence
(3) Remembrance: europeanisation, internationalisation, unversalisation of the Holocaust
(1) In science and in public awareness the concentration camps are characteristic instruments of dominance and persecution by the NS regime between 1933 ‐1945. They were prisons as well as places of forced labour, torture and death for millions of people. The first theme asks about the history of these ''sites of terror''. This should not only be about the location itself but also its character and quality. Research or work on development and (infra)structure of camps, inmates, the perception of victims, sociology or the 'world' of the NS perpetrator will be presented within this theme.
(2) ''What is the Holocaust? What meaning does it merit? Does its traumatic character only draw sympathetic reaction based on our western cultural conditioning?'' The second theme is based on these questions raised by Dan Diner in 2007. Character of the occurrence, perceptions and contextualisation should be discussed and questioned. In this theme detailed research into the genesis and evolution of the Holocaust, the persecution of specific groups, as well as their perception and interpretive classification will be presented.
(3) The increasing interest in the ''business of rememberance'' resulted from, among other things, the post communist opening, the liberalisation and the nationalisation of discourses in middle and eastern European countries. Through those discourses the Holocaust developed into a historic point of reference which determines political and cultural norms. The europeanisation and internationalisation of the Holocaust accounts for a pluralisation of concepts and contexts. In conjunction there exists a trend to universalise the Holocaust.
Daniel Levy and Natan Sznaider stated in 2001 that the Holocaust had become a universally legitimate reference for very diverse groups of victims. At the same time the Holocaust is increasingly being reduced to individual aspects which can be universally applied in ethical discourses. One example for this is the integration of the Holocaust in an international discourse on violence and human rights, ''the Holocaust as a general symbol of evil''(Katja Köhr und Simone Lässig 2007). In this third theme the processes by which on one side lead to the cultural remembrance of the holocaust in Europe but on the other side resulted in it's internationalisation should be questioned. In the course of this there should be discussions about different cultures of remembrances on the
basis of specific memorial sites, symbols and commemorations as well as various factors of influence such as the increasing media coverage of remembrance.Furthermore the universally political and action guided imperatives derived from the Holocaust need to be deconstructed and their meaning for the perception of the Holocaust should be questioned.
At the same time it should be discussed how and and to what extent this universal Holocaust narrative displaces or overwrites other remembrances and commemorations.
Ultimately it should be discussed if and how, given the inevitable passing of the last witness and the increasing temporal distance to the actual events, there can be an assurance the currently well established and highly consensual narrative about the murder of the Jews will not ''fade'' or become lifeless and with that will lose it's impact, for example, in the pedagogy of memorials. Issues regarding work in memorials and their design are to be discussed in the context of the sketched out international
The 15 talks will have the character of twenty minute short presentations, followed by forty minute discussion session each. The conference will take place in a workshop style, with the discussion of participant's questions as a key feature. Therefore the active participation of those who did not submit a paper is especially important. Conference languages are German and English.
The call for participation is addressed to advanced students, post graduates, PhD/doctoral students from European and non European countries who in their work or projects deal with the history or post history of concentration camps.
We ask all interested parties to submit a one page letter of motivation / statement of purpose as well as a short autobiography by 15/03/2010 to the email below:
Notification of selected participants will happen by 01/04/2010. We will endeavour to cover the costs of travel and accommodation.

Gantt Chart Software Buyers Guide
Table of Contents
What is Gantt chart software?
A Gantt chart is a production control tool developed by Henry L. Gantt in 1917. Gantt chart software systems are now extensively used in project management to map project tasks against designated time periods. Each task is represented by a progress bar that reflects the duration of the task along with its start and end dates. Task dependencies and connections are displayed using arrows, and overlapping tasks are differentiated by specific colors. Businesses can purchase Gantt chart software as a standalone solution or as part of a larger project management software suite.
The benefits of Gantt chart software
- Better representation of project tasks: The biggest advantage in using Gantt chart software is that all stakeholders can view the overall progress of a project and track resource allocations on a single screen. It gives users a clear picture of the start/end date of their individual tasks.
- Graphical representation offers better visibility of project timeline: Gantt charts display project progress graphically, which can be easier to understand than reporting insights in text format. Everyone shares a common view of the project timeline and overall status, which limits the need for a separate communications tool to report project status.
- Efficient time and resource management: Each task in a Gantt chart is represented by a bar that reflects the start/end date and total time required to complete the task. This helps project managers and team members manage their time and resources efficiently, and facilitates setting realistic targets/goals.
Typical features of Gantt chart software
- Bar chart: Represent tasks via individual bars on a complete Gantt chart. Each bar highlights its own properties (e.g., start and end dates, resource allocation, dependencies on other tasks, etc.).
- Project scheduling: Organize and schedule project activities on a connected timeline and display the start and end dates of underlying tasks.
- Task management: Identify project needs, allocate resources, add task notes, and manage the execution of workflows.
- Dependency tracking: Specify relationships between individual tasks and determine the sequence in which each must be completed.
- Drag and drop: Add, modify, or remove tasks by dragging and dropping.
- Milestone tracking: Define and set critical indicators of task progress and track completion to better manage project workflows.
Considerations when purchasing Gantt chart software
- Do you need standalone Gantt chart software or a full project management suite? A Gantt chart reflects what's going on with a project and its different tasks, with limited functionality to create, control, and change parameters. A full project management software suite, on the other hand, provides features that cover broader aspects of project management, such as budgeting, resource forecasting, and timesheet management. Assess your unique requirements to identify which option best meets your needs and budget.
- The size and complexity of a project: Generally, Gantt chart solutions are designed to handle projects spanning two to three months. They aren't typically capable of supporting complex projects that involve multiple iterations at different levels, and have dynamic workflows and evolving deadlines. These factors must be considered before implementing Gantt chart software to support a particular project.
Relevant Gantt chart software trends
- Cloud-based Gantt chart applications will gain momentum: Businesses are increasingly turning to the cloud for project management solutions. Lower upfront costs and easy scalability are contributors to this trend. As businesses strive to become asset-light and nimble to respond to highly dynamic market environments, the market for cloud-based project management solutions will continue to grow, which will trickle down to sub-categories like Gantt chart software.
- Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning will make project management easier: Gantt chart software vendors have started adding AI and machine learning capabilities to their solutions. These technologies help end users analyze huge volumes of data collected from past projects and gain relevant insights regarding task distribution, time and resource allocation, potential risks, and the best ways to execute a project.

"This landscape reminds me of Hans Werkman," Zelda said.
"You mean the poem with all these place names," Marcus replied as he kept looking out of the window at the endless fields on which the grain was harvested. Seeing the horizon was rare nowadays, but so much sky and emptiness was really unprecedented. He knew that tractors did not usually drive around unmanned, otherwise you might think that het Hogeland (the High Land) had been abandoned completely.
"I can understand why Werkman hopes that the new Earth will look like this area. It's so beautiful," Zelda said.
"I don't remember the exact lines of the poem," Marcus said.
Give us in the Eternity
A renewed Uithuizermeeden to see.
Give us Roodeschool and Spijk
In the bending of the dike.
Zelda recited the text while she kept her eyes focused on the fields of gold. She struggled to pronounce the last sentence clearly.
"If Hans Werkman thinks this landscape is so special, why hasn't he returned after his retirement," Marcus said.
Zelda did not reply. She took her phone and made a picture of the corn, half of which was still standing. "Within two minutes we will be in Uithuizen," she said.
They walked to the balcony where three other people waited to get out. Two girls, one of them asked the other in a foreign language if she knew where to find the local Action-store. And a black man, dressed in sports clothes who uttered undefinable sounds to no one in particular. All five of them left the train. The two girls stayed at the entrance of the station, the black man walked into the extinct village, still speaking in other tongues.
Zelda and Marcus headed to the Menkemaborg, A walk of about ten minutes. They passed a retirement home. From behind the windows some old ladies watched them curiously.
The borg was a beautiful building that had a moat. A country house like this was only for the very rich. Inside the atmosphere was stuffy. The heat of the past days dominated the building. Zelda took a leaflet with information, he preferred to look for himself. The doors to the rooms were open and cords prevented them to enter them. Text signs described what could be seen inside the rooms. He saw an odd organ that was hidden in a cupboard. If the doors were closed, nothing pointed at the presence of the instrument.
Marcus attempted to escape the heat by descending the stairs to the basement. Food in glass jars and luxury wines were stored here. It would be an excellent location for a film in which a maid was brutally raped. A family with two children walked down the stairs. The girls had shriek voices that hurt his ears and he wondered why children shouted so often instead of just talking.
He fled the noise as quickly as possible and stopped in front of a room that exhibited a huge canopy bed. He stared at the portrait of a young woman for a few moments. Her bright eyes could have belonged to a woman of today. She had died in childbirth at the age of 26, said the description on the sign. Presumably this very bed. Even though you were rich, with all the privileges that belonged to your status, you could still die from the consequences of your child's birth. He walked on and saw a dining table that had belonged to the wealthy family. Through a small door that was half open, a simple kitchen could be seen, where the staff used to prepare the food. The position of the chairs round the table gave him an uneasy feeling. The signs confirmed his thoughts: Two of the daughters of this family had chosen partners other than the husbands that their father had in mind for them. Because of this all their rights were cut off and they were no longer welcome in this house. Marcus needed fresh air. He left the borg and waited outside till Zelda would have seen enough.
They had twenty minutes before the train to the Eemshaven would leave and they decided to buy a snack at the supermarket near the station. When they had found what they needed, they joined the long line before the cash desk. "Why don't they have a self-scanner here?" Marcus asked. The answer was given before his eyes. The cash girl acted as the local chat box. In a drawling dialect, of which he did not understood much, gossip was exchanged and opinions were confirmed. Multitasking didn't work in Uithuizen. The line hardly moved and it was far from sure whether they would be in time for the train to the Eemshaven.
The Eemshaven had been on his to do list for more than thirty years. His parents often went to the German island of Borkum by boat, but he had never been there. To his astonishment, his father advised him: "Don't go to Borkum, it's boring and you will waste your time there." But since the National Railways had extended the track to the Eemshaven, he wanted to see the final destination. They were just in time for the train, but when they tried to board, they noticed that it would not drive any further than Roodeschool.
"We can pick up a public bike there," Zelda said practically. Something was wrong with that idea, he thought when the train started to move. In this way he could have travelled to the Eemshaven years before the train track had been extended. But now the situation was as it was, he accepted Zelda's plan. In Roodeschool, two other passengers left the train after they had arrived at the windy station. These two people continued their walk in opposite directions.
The station had a few cycle stands, but they didn't see any public bikes. They looked around bewilderdly.
"Where is the village?" Zelda asked.
On the left side were trees, on the right side a few houses. "I think we should go to the right," he replied.
"We have an hour before the next train goes to the Eemshaven, let's try to find a café or a restaurant," Zelda said. The village had one main street. A small side road led to an area where a company was established that produced pipe organs. Some twenty metres further, they saw a Heineken sign on a wall. The doors of the building, that looked like a Chinese restaurant were locked and the rooms were abandoned in spite of the leftover bottles on the tables. A road worker on his knees didn't say a word but the eyes of the man followed them closely.
On the other side, they saw another beer sign. It belonged to a building that, if the inscription was anything to go by, was the Village Centre. Marcus didn't know what to think of it but he had to admit that the building was constructed according modern requirements: a smoothly running slope made it accessible for wheelchair users.
A look inside did not show any activity in this Village Centre. He discovered a showcase that contained the local agenda: '29/6 Klaber jass'. That was three weeks ago. He saw no mentioning of opening times. No activities were planned for the month of July. Anyway, there was not a chance that they could drink some coffee here.
Following the road on the right side, because the sidewalk on the left was open for maintenance work, they passed a garage that, for incomprehensible reasons, had the name 'Garage Garrelsweer'.
"That's weird," he said, "Why would anyone give a garage the name of another village?"
"Maybe it's the name of the owner," Zelda replied, "You also have people who are called Norg."
This theory seemed solid. "I think I see another garage," he said. It turned out to be a show room.
The shiny vehicles in the shop window were oldtimer tractors.
"The local tradespeople focus on the essential necessities of life," concluded Zelda, "pipe organs and oldtimers."
"This was the last sign of civilization," Marcus concluded. "Shall we walk back?"
As slowly as possible, they strolled to the station. Again they came across the road worker, who made a grumbling attempt to greet. They hadn't visited the village unnoticed.
At the station they sat down on a bench in a glass shelter, where they enjoyed the apples that they had bought in Uithuizen. Without saying anything Zelda gave him his bottle of cola, that made sizzling sound when he opened it.
Their rest was disturbed by a loud bang. Zelda got up to see what had happened and she reported that a small bird had flown against the window of their shelter. It hadn't survived the crash.
The train rolled into the station. From their compartment they eagerly studied the environment, which was an interesting transitional area. The old dike was not used as a boundary for the water, but it ran into grassland that had been conquered from the sea. A historic mill, which had probably had been a landmark in earlier days, looked very small compared to the modern wind turbines, that were placed there in huge amounts to prevent the soil in this area from further subsiding.
The track rose a little so that they could look across the new dike. The Wadden Sea popped up and near the horizon they saw a stroke of land. Marcus pointed to it and asked, "Could that be Borkum?"
They walked to the exit. The two other passengers spoke German and Marcus wondered if Germans could only travel to Borkum via this Dutch route.
They left the platform. A staircase brought them on top of the dike where they looked over the grey Wadden Sea. The sound of screeching seagulls penetrated the silence. This was the Dutch equivalent of Land's End. But if someone had told him that this was the end of the world, he would have believed it too.

"We know here in Michigan what this does to our roads, and what it has done to our roads," Chair Alisha Bell, D-Detroit said. "Safety for all drivers and our infrastructure should not be compromised and this body will not approve any legislation that calls for an increase in weight or length of trucks."
The resolution states that any increases beyond the current capacity of county infrastructure would cause excessive damage to roads and bridges and increase safety risks for motorists.
According to Bell, other counties throughout the United States have adopted similar legislation."

Nature of the Divinity School
Yale Divinity School (YDS), a graduate professional school of Yale University, is a robust community of learning and worship offering a wide range of resources for students on varied paths, including careers not only in ministry and academia but in a wide range of other professions as well. The school is interdenominational and nonsectarian, with a faculty drawn from the major Christian traditions and also other world religions. Students represent numerous denominations and faith groups, and instruction is provided in the history, doctrines, and polity of all the major church traditions.
Programs of study at YDS lead to the degrees of Master of Divinity (M.Div.), Master of Arts in Religion (M.A.R.), and Master of Sacred Theology (S.T.M.). Interdisciplinary study is encouraged through enrollment in courses elsewhere at Yale or by pursuing joint-degree programs offered in collaboration with other graduate professional schools at the University. Beyond the classroom, students engage in worship opportunities, field placements, research, guest lectures, and denominationally oriented activities.
The richness of student experience and opportunity at Yale Divinity School is enhanced by the presence of several YDS partner institutions that specialize in programs of formation: Andover Newton Seminary at Yale Divinity School (ANS), which specializes in the training of ministers within congregationally based polities; Berkeley Divinity School at Yale (BDS), an Episcopal seminary; and the Yale Institute of Sacred Music (ISM), which fosters engagement in the sacred through music, worship, and the arts.
Sterling Divinity Quadrangle—the home of YDS on the Yale campus—is also the site of a number of vital resource and research programs, such as the Yale Center for Faith and Culture, the Jonathan Edwards Center at Yale, the Yale Indian Papers Project, the James E. Annand Program for Spiritual Formation, and the Educational Leadership and Ministry Program.
Between 380 and 400 students attend YDS at any given time. Central to life on Sterling Divinity Quadrangle are the daily worship services held in Marquand Chapel, in addition to services organized by Andover Newton Seminary, Berkeley Divinity School, and student denominational groups.
YDS maintains strong ties with the Department of Religious Studies in the University's Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, which offers the Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in ten fields of study. A number of YDS faculty hold joint appointments in the Department of Religious Studies, and some participate as Ph.D. program faculty. Conversely, Religious Studies faculty frequently teach courses at the Divinity School. YDS professors also hold joint appointments in a wide range of other Yale departments, including American Studies, Classics, History, History of Art, and Philosophy. Additionally, YDS students can with permission earn Divinity degree credit for Religious Studies courses, and graduate Religious Studies students can with permission take YDS courses for degree credit.
The YDS website can be accessed at http://divinity.yale.edu.

Genoa President Enrico Preziosi believes Giovanni Simeone "would do well" with Maurizio Sarri at Napoli.
The striker - son of Atletico Madrid Coach Diego - has scored 11 goals in all competitions for the Grifone this season, fuelling speculation he could leave in the summer.
"He's an extraordinary player," Preziosi said on Radio Kiss Kiss Napoli.
"He's like a more wilful [Filippo] Inzaghi and he's more technical as well. On Sunday he scored two goals and provided an assist, only important players put up those numbers.
"Juventus or Napoli? I could see him doing well at both teams, he'd do well with Sarri because he plays well with the ball on the ground."
Leonardo Pavoletti left Genoa to move to San Paolo but has so far played just 27 minutes in Serie A.
"Pavoletti is a great player, but he needs crosses, not for the team to try and bring the ball to the goal.
"He's a classic Italian centre-forward, and there aren't many of them left. He's better than [Luca] Toni he has more movement.
"He loves being in or near the box, he needs to be fed but not with balls on the ground. He's an extraordinary new player, but he needs to understand a new system.
"It should be varied a little, because he's a different type of striker to the Azzurri's others. We still have to wait a few months to judge him."
