What's your comfort food? Peanut butter and jelly on toast? Mashed potatoes? A big bowl of pasta? Being from Indian origins, I wanted to share some deliciously diverse vegan curry recipes, since curry is definitely my personal favourite go-to when I need some food that's like a hug.
Although many curries in India or Thailand are vegetarian, fewer are actually vegan, since ghee (clarified butter) is a typical ingredient. But vegan curries are easy to make, and packed with nutritious ingredients like chickpeas, lentils, spices, beans, veggies, tofu, and sometimes even fruits! Oh, and when we talk about 'spices', we're not referring to chili-hot spices necessarily, but those that provide flavour – the fragrance of the food, if you will.
And those fragrances have major health benefits, too: if you've not got time to grind your own spices, even store bought curry powder has a number of valuable health benefits, including the prevention of cancer, protection against heart disease, reducing Alzheimer's symptoms, easing pain and inflammation, boosting bone health, protecting the immune system from bacterial infections, and increasing the liver's functionality. Just make sure your curry powder is an organic one like this; otherwise it may have been dosed with radiation to maintain 'freshness' (yes, seriously!)
For me, it's all about the textures, too – from soft, buttery naan to creamy sauces and choosing just the right type of fresh spices. When picking chillies, it's a matter of taste and smell. Some are sweeter, even fruity, and some have a smoky depth to their flavour. Turmeric and ginger can be (and if you ask me, should be) freshly shredded, not bought powdered, but do whatever you can to get the freshest possible spices; it will make a huge difference to how your curry tastes.
But shredding your spices is the biggest hassle you'll have with these easy curry recipes. They may look complex, but most can be made within 20 minutes. Whether you're a carnivore, a pescetarian, or a vegetarian, you'll find the burst of complex flavours you're looking for in these curry recipes for vegans.
1. Carrot Spiced Rice with Creamy Almond 'Yogurt'
This dish has a combination of qualities which especially please the senses. It is a pleasurable vegan supper with a creamy almond 'yogurt' accompaniment to balance out the spiced carrot. This recipe is a great reminder of how curries are perfect for any weather, and any season.
See the recipe here.
2. Roasted Cauliflower with Harissa Chickpea Curry
Who needs meat when this hearty, vegan curry will have you find its natural place at the head of your dinner table, ensuring everyone gets to enjoy its deliciousness. Can be served hot or cold, too.
See the recipe here.
3. Nutty Mushroom and Coriander Pilaf
If your tastebuds are itching to discover new flavours, try this Nutty Mushroom and Coriander Pilaf recipe. With subtle, homely flavours, it's definitely a crowd pleaser – just serve with a leafy salad to make the perfect meal.
See the recipe here.
4. Chana Masala with Chickpeas
This is the perfect weeknight dinner because it requires very little preparation. It's healthy, spicy and an authentic street food staple that is eaten throughout India.
See the recipe here.
5. Vegan Lentil Curry
I love this recipe! If you use brown rice, you have a complete vegan protein here, with the combination of lentils. Also, if you want to lighten this up, just sub almond milk for coconut. Voila!
Get the recipe here.
6. Sweet Potato Curry
When nothing else will do and if you are looking for an easy cleanup, this one-pot wonder will have your calorie-conscious houseguests indulging in spoonfuls of deep, satisfying flavour and your non-veggie guests questioning meat, what?
See the recipe here.
7. Vegetable Curry
You'll never need to wonder about what to do with your unused vegetables ever again – this is a stunningly quick way in which to cook them, and tastes even better when reheated the following day.
See the recipe here.
8. Vegan Paneer Tikka Masala
This is an incredibly mouth-watering, vegan version of a traditional paneer tikka masala. With depth of flavour in a luscious thick sauce, from slowly infusing spices, just remember to stock up on lots of garlicky naan bread for an easy cleanup.
See the full recipe here.
9. Pad Prik King
This is actually a Thai curry, which packs heat and is quite fragrant. It's the perfect weeknight dinner with layers of complex flavours that make it really moreish. It works well spooned over steamed rice or boiled noodles. This recipe uses fish sauce but don't panic – I've got you covered! Just substitute it for an equally tasty vegan free version called Nuoc Mam Chay.
See the recipe here.
10. Instant Pot Masala Eggplant Curry
A creative, home-style cooked recipe. With a surprising mix of spices, this curry has depth of flavour, which is a real treat to the senses. It's easy to make, too.
See the recipe here.
11. Creamy Pumpkin and Cashew Curry
A match made in heaven. With a subtle blend of sweetness from roasted cashews, creamy coconut and sugary pumpkin, it is food ecstasy on a plate! If you love pumpkin, you may like these recipes, too.
See the recipe here.
12. Korma Curry
Creamy and comforting with smooth, velvety textures, this is a dish we all crave on those cold, rainy days where we just want to curl up in front of the TV and watch iconic movies with a glass or two of wine.
See the full recipe here.
13. Lemongrass and Coconut Curry with Summer Vegetables
This one is bursting with flavours – but it's a bit hot. Can you handle it? If so, this is an incredibly easy recipe to cook at home, which is so versatile, using easily accessible seasonal ingredients, for the stressed meat-abstaining foodie.
See the recipe here.
14. Easy Potato, Pea and Carrot Curry
This one is perfect for when the fridge is bare and all you have is frozen veg – but of course, fresh always works best! Add in some spinach for an extra nutritional boost.
Get the recipe here.
15. Indian Daikon Curry
Daikon – a veggie from the radish family – is a staple ingredient in many Indian dishes. Its flavour is enhanced when combined with fragrant spices. Low in calories, too!
See the recipe here.
16. Chickpea and Eggplant Curry with Mint Chutney
Don't be intimidated by the list of ingredients – this recipe requires a rough blend of herbs and spices to give you a burst of aromatic and fresh popping flavour. The list may be long, but it's just a question of shopping the spices. Once made, you'll find yourself gulping down this delicious curry all too easily!
See the recipe here.
17. Spicy Cabbage and Potato Curry
Sometimes simplicity is best. With humble ingredients you can enjoy something truly spectacular. I prefer this recipe cooked over a wood burning barbecue to enjoy crunchy cabbage leaves with charred edges, served with sweet and sour pickle.
See the recipe here.
18. Curried Carrots with Pecans
This is real life magic! Perfect as a quick snack, last minute entertaining or picnics. I like to mix mine up with oven roasted cashews and sometimes change the carrots for vegetables I have to hand, such as parsnips or squash.
See the recipe here.
19. Green Curry With Brown Rice Noodles And Swiss Chard
Fresh herbs have a cooling effect when combined with fresh chillies, which adds contrast in colour, fragrance and texture. They make a curry much lighter and all the more addictive.
See the recipe here.
20. Easy Bean Sprout Curry
A quick, healthy and vegan option for those days you need a quick meal. Cooked with a few spices, they are a tiny treat which are exquisite when tucked into little pockets of naan bread, turning it into something deeply satisfying, filling and dense.
See the recipe here.
21. Simple Chickpea Curry
Coconut milk and chickpeas are a marriage made in heaven. The nuttiness of the chickpeas is enhanced by the sweetness of the coconut milk, and the addition of the Indian flavours are just the 'spicing' on the cake!
Get the recipe here.
22. Thai Green Curry With Zoodles
Looking for something lighter? The substitution of zoodles – that is, zucchini noodles in case you weren't aware – for rice lowers the carb count here.
Get the recipe here.
23. Coconut Curry with Tofu
If you want something a bit meatier, so to speak, this curry is for you. The crispy tofu makes a great contrast to the creamy chickpeas and coconut milk. If you love eating tofu as your vegan protein, you may want to check these recipes out, too.
Get the recipe here.
24. 30 Minute Coconut Curry
This one reminds me of a dish I had at Bali Buddha in Indonesia – another country that loves a good curry! You can basically add whatever vegetables you may have on hand.

Although it chronicles the life of Jesus based on the Gospels of Matthew and John, Cotton Patch Gospel is a secular play. And although the actors who portrayed the roles in the Florida Repertory Theatre presentation are professional actors who primarily have done secular roles, they say the Cotton Patch Gospel has touched many of their lives in a spiritual sense.
Eager to reach an audience they did not get during the play`s eight-week run at the theater, Jerry Hammons said he and fellow actor Mace Graham are taking the play -- and most of the cast -- on the road for a church tour.
``I just wanted to do it some more. The role is right at home for me,`` Hammons said. He is resident director and choreographer for the Florida Repertory Theatre.
Born in Texas and raised in Louisiana, Hammons said he knew the play`s language so well he learned the script in a day. For instance, Jesus calls God ``Daddy`` in the play as Hammons called his own father.
The cast is taking it to churches because ``we really didn`t get a large number from the church community to see the show. Mace and I wanted to put another production of it back together,`` Hammons said, adding that ``we contacted 200 ministers informing them we were doing the piece and offering them a couple (of) free tickets.``
Local critics gave thumbs up to the play, which has been called by some a ``countrified`` version of Jesus Christ Superstar. The music was written by Harry Chapin.
The play, which is a musical based on the book The Cotton Patch Gospel of Matthew and John by Clarence Jordan (who has written Cotton Patch versions of other Bible books), is set in the Deep South and involves down-home dialogue, fundamentalism, guitar pickin` and political favoritism.


text: The G-8 should treat African development like an investment rather than a charity case, says the Christian Science Monitor. It may be an opportunity the industrialized world cannot afford to pass up. "Once again, the Group of Eight industrialized economies invited African leaders to their meeting. Will they again let them down at the next one?...It's embarrassing that the G8 fell short of its Africa promise when it has thrown so much money at banks. (Indeed, it pledged less on Friday toward global maternal and child care than expected.) The world could certainly do with another region booming right now, and the G8 should be doing all it can to encourage this one," says the Monitor's Editorial Board.

How does Property Tax Reform Affect Citizen-Government Relations in China?
PIs: Lily L. Tsai (Department of Political Science, MIT)
Xiaobo Lü (University of Texas, Austin)
Property tax is one of the most critical factors in real estate development and sustainable urbanization around the world, yet we have little understanding on the political and economic consequences of property tax in developing countries, especially in China. In recent years the Chinese government has made various indications that it plans to introduce property taxes in the near future. In anticipation, both policymakers and scholars have engaged in heated debates as collecting property tax is uncharted territory in contemporary China since 1949. Our project sheds light on these debates by using innovative survey and lab experiments in the field to understand the attitudes and behavior of ordinary citizens in response to the potential implementation of property tax, thus providing much needed micro-foundations to illuminate the implications of various tax collection schemes. More importantly, we take an interdisciplinary approach by incorporating existing theories in political science, economics, and psychology to understand the behavioral consequences of property tax among Chinese citizens. We aim to contribute to our understanding of the relationship between fiscal capacity and state- society relations, which is key to sustainable real estate development. We believe this project will generate a wide-range of scholarly and policy implications to other developing countries facing rapid urbanization.

I was thinking about grouping all of Atlantic Canada together, but I've been able to find ten books that take place in Newfoundland and Labrador. This province is the eastern-most province in Canada, and is somewhere I have wanted to go for a long, LONG time (and no, not JUST for the fact that Great Big Sea is from there).

PermalinkTim Maudlin: "There is no "information loss" paradox. There never has been. If that seems like a provocation, it's because it is one. Few problems have gotten as much attention in theoretical foundations of physics over the last 40 years as the so-called information loss paradox. But the "solution" to the paradox does not require any new physics that was unavailable in 1975, when Stephen Hawking posed the problem [1]. Indeed, the complete solution can be stated in a single sentence. And it has been pointed out, most forcefully by Robert Wald. The claim above ought to be frankly incredible. How could a simple solution have gone unappreciated by so many theoretical physicists - among them very great physicists - over such a long period of time? Probably no completely satisfactory non-sociological explanation is possible." https://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/1705/1705.03541.pdf
Raw Message
Sabine Hossenfelder is angry at Tim Maudlin for humiliating physicists but otherwise she agrees with him:
Sabine Hosssenfelder: "For all I can tell I don't disagree with Maudlin. I merely think the paper lacks some context and makes physicists look rather stupid..."
Needless to say, the main deity in physics is Einstein, but physicists know that he is a false god as well:
Joao Magueijo, Faster Than the Speed of Light, p. 250: "Lee [Smolin] and I discussed these paradoxes at great length for many months, starting in January 2001. We would meet in cafés in South Kensington or Holland Park to mull over the problem. THE ROOT OF ALL THE EVIL WAS CLEARLY SPECIAL RELATIVITY. All these paradoxes resulted from well known effects such as length contraction, time dilation, or E=mc^2, all basic predictions of special relativity. And all denied the possibility of establishing a well-defined border, common to all observers, capable of containing new quantum gravitational effects."
Sabine Hossenfelder seems to agree that the root of all the evil is Einstein's special relativity:
Sabine Hossenfelder: "If you haven't read his [Joao Magueijo's] book "Faster Than the Speed of Light", I assure you you won't regret it."
So why do physicists worship Einstein and Hawking knowing that both are false gods? Above Tim Maudlin says that "no completely satisfactory non-sociological explanation is possible" and he is right, but the "sociological" explanation is very simple. There can be only one reason why profiteers worship a false god - worshiping is profitable:

Whereas searching for participating ways to combine technology together with her college students, Tara Martin (@TaraMartinEDU) created #BookSnaps. What is unsuitable in conserving an training system aside from the trendy technological world we stay in, expenditure on this area could used extra correctly within the schooling sector that would benefit colleges and pupils alike. Indifference to the world and self-absorption might also be caused by digital technology. Funding of technology was by no means emphasised for the true benefit of the citizens within the colony or to make use of that technology to improve the standard of life for the colony's residents. However this doesn't mean that everybody who has Technology of their life, is aware of precisely tips on how to work it or understand the actual motive for its invention.
I feel technology is transferring ahead of our skill to completely appreciate it and use this miraculous discovery in a humane and optimistic manner…however, identical to something throughout historical past; there will always be those that abuse energy..however and in no matter type that power might take…it is simply human nature; sadly.
Technology based mostly classes can motivate learners to research topics which relates to the learners technology such as evaluating and contrasting how a specific merchandise has modified. By the sixth day the automotive should be able to travel down the track below the 6 flood lamps on a low gentle condition (Dusk/Daybreak setting) to obtain full credit.
It will likely be interesting to see how shoppers react to the presence of augmented technology in newspapers as the technology improves. You'll be able to implement a flipped classroom the place college students watch lectures at dwelling and use class time for workouts and questions. The next video reveals how a university pupil in Florida is able to sustain with the pains of her studies through the use of assistive technology. I will in all probability find a approach to hyperlink to it from my education web site, which is visited by loads of lecturers.
These are the problems that society should confront and supply solutions to for technology. Though advantageous, the advancement of digital technology also has many drawbacks, amongst which is the shortage of security.

How to get the job of your dreams.
Most students are not trained to find and get the job of their dreams. Many students don't know how to prepare a winning resume, how to find the right companies, how to ace the interview and get the job, and how to start their career. Students also need to develop skills on how to manage time, money, and learn from role models.The job market is very competitive. For the best companies there are over 100 applications for every job.

The American Institute of CPAs has named Thomas J. Purcell III to a two-year term as chairman of its Tax Executive Committee, the tax policy and standards-setting body of the AICPA.
Purcell, the first educator to lead the committee, is an associate accounting professor and law professor at Creighton University in Omaha, where he has been on the faculty since 1979. Prior to joining the Creighton faculty, he was a tax consultant for Touche Ross & Co.
The tax executive committee represents AICPA members on tax matters being considered by Congress, the Internal Revenue Service, the Treasury Department and other public groups, and oversees the work of the institute's Tax Division.
Purcell has served as a member of the AICPA Council, the Tax Executive Committee, the Pre-certification Education Executive Committee, the Tax Accounting Committee, the Tax Policy Committee and on numerous AICPA tax task forces. He has also chaired the board of directors of the Nebraska Society of CPAs and served twice as a board member.
Separately, the AICPA honored Robert M. Rosen as this year's recipient of the Arthur J. Dixon Memorial Award, the profession's highest award in the area of taxation.
The annual award, named for the chair of the AICPA's Tax Executive Committee from 1977 to 1980, was established in 1981 after Dixon's death to honor outstanding CPAs in the area of taxes. The award, given by the AICPA Tax Division, was presented to Rosen at the institute's National Conference on Federal Taxes in Washington.
Rosen, a CPA, attorney and noted author in the area of consolidated tax returns, is a retired partner of Ernst & Young, where he practiced with the firm's national tax office for 28 years. At E&Y, Rosen served as an expert in consolidated tax returns, as the national director of tax education and as national director of tax quality control. He has served as an adjunct professor at the Georgetown Law Center, where he received the school's Dicennial Medal.
Rosen served as chair of the AICPA Task Force on Consolidated returns and as chair of the Corporations and Shareholders Committee. He also chaired the AICPA Tax Curriculum Task Force, its Tax Education Subcommittee, and its Tax Education Symposia Steering Committee, in addition to serving on the institute's Continuing Professional Education Executive Committee, its Curriculum Subcommittee and its Task Force on Graduate Tax Education. He also served as a member of the Tax Strategic Planning Implementation Task Force and was co-editor for many years of the "Tax Clinic" column in The Tax Adviser.

I received a pair of CLIV's Max Hyaluronic Masks. According to Ipsy, "Hyaluronic acid is one of the best methods of attracting and retaining moisture. This mask is 50% hyaluronic acid solution, which means it will definitely quench and refresh the thirstiest skin. It's a heavy-hitter in the anti-aging arsenal too.The organically certified tencel sheet mask is infused with a proprietary botanical blends including green tea callus extract, witch hazel, and rose water. Basically, the recipe for chill."
I was kind of offended that Ipsy sent me a mask aimed at fighting aging and wrinkles, but I tried it out after a day at the pool. This mask is much gooier than the TONYMOLY masks. The mask was very saturated, but it did not drip down my face like TONYMOLY does. The mask was very large, and it did have a strong perfume scent. It made my skin feel soft, but I wasn't amazed by it to want to try it again.

The mission of the American Indian Education program is to meet the unique cultural and academic needs of American Indian learners. Our program includes a host of events and resources for our Native American parents and students. Currently we have approximately 260 students participating in the program. We have students enrolled all of our 36 facilities including early childhood, elementary schools, middle and high schools in addition to our Alternative Learning Center, Dakota Ridge School and our Special Education facilities. Funding for the program comes from a grant under the Federal Government's Title VI authorization and from the Minnesota Department of Education's World's Best Workforce initiative.
Enrolling in the program
In order for students to participate in the Indian Education program under the Federal Government Title VI eligibility, the student's parent must complete the Title VI Student Eligibility Certification Form (506). Completing this form enables your student to be counted for funding under this program. This form will be maintained at your child's school and will not be released without your written approval. This form will become part of your child's school record and will not need to be completed every year.
Should you have difficulty finding information about a respective tribe, you may go to the National Congress of American Indians website and click on "Directory" to search for tribal information. Title VI funding only recognizes Federal tribes.
Program, Services and Resources
Tutoring Services – Subject area tutoring
Tutoring services are offered in content areas such as English Language Arts, Math and Science and a host of other areas. Tutoring can occur during the school day during non-class time such as Flex Time in middle school however it is very difficult to schedule during the school day. If a student is not suggested for tutoring through the program student monitoring system, there is an opportunity to request tutoring by completing the "Request for Tutoring" form or by calling the Indian Education Office.
Request for tutoring by appointment
Students and parents may request tutoring services during non-school times at a time that is convenient for the student. Students and parent may contact the Indian Education Office or complete the request for tutoring services form.
ACT Preparation
High school junior and senior level students have the opportunity to participate in ACT college preparation sessions. The Indian Education program has tutors who specifically work with students to prepare for the exam. Students will take an ACT practice test to help the tutors with where to focus their targeted tutoring in addition to general test taking strategies. Students will then take another practice test to help determine ACT proficiency.
If you are interested in participating in ACT tutoring with the 196 American Indian Education Program, please fill out this form.

Student Progress Monitoring
The Indian Education staff attempts to monitor progress for the students in the program however, given that students are located in almost all of the schools within District 196, the task is very difficult. We try to work closely with our school counselors at the secondary level and the school social workers at the elementary level as much as possible. We ask that parents contact the Indian Education Office should they desire to have their student on a progress monitoring system.
Graduating Senior Honoring Event
District 196 identified Native American Grade 12 students, who will be graduating from a District 196 high school are invited to participate in an honoring ceremony.

Rajeev Purnaiya, Founder-CEO, Hooeey.com
May 16, 11 am
February 19, 2011, 7.30 am (Nag)
Rajeev Purnaiya is the founder-CEO of hooeey. hooeey, his second entrepreneurial venture was started in late 2005. This web-centric application was created to overcome drawbacks in the existing web information re-locating tools and services such as bookmarks, search engines, on-line tagging and link management. hooeey is a revolution in browsing history data, a brain child of Rajeev.
From 1998 to 2005, Rajeev Purnaiya was the Founder and Managing Director of CyberBazaar, India's first and largest conferencing company. He was responsible for strategically aligning the company to new technologies and analyzing future market trends in Indian industry. India's first audio-conferencing start-up CyberBazaar was a pioneer in its area, several years ahead of other large telecom companies. Even today, it is the most dominant player in India having more than 60% market share.
Rajeev has Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering from the University of Alabama and a Masters in Industrial Engineering from Texas A&M University.
Rajeev Purnaiya is an avid reader with interests spanning across genres and enjoys his round of golf. He is also an active member of professional societies like the TIE (The Indus Entrepreneurs), CII-YI (Young Indians) and Proto.in.
Journey of hooeey
Before hooeey was developed, it was impossible for the average Internet user to tame the World Wide Web. The net itself has millions of websites but only a minuscule portion of the Internet is relevant to each Internet user. Rajeev Purnaiya, himself an avid internee surfer, believed that web users the world around would face the same problems, and proceeded to ratify his belief that people would find immense value in recording, retrieving and analyzing their browser history.
His brainstorming sessions with his peers, members of the development community as well as more intense internet addicts reiterated the needs and helped to formulate the wish list.
The wish list apart from his own earlier observations, also highlighted on sharing with like minded net surfers- an ode to the web 2.0 era.
The wish list was then translated to a features list and a technical team was hired in mid 2006. The team then developed the core functionalities and hooeey was launched for beta testing in early 2007. The feedback from the test users has been incorporated, and various optimum features like tagging and folders were also included.
In May 2007 Apparatus Media, were roped in as a design team aiming at enhancing usability. The design team worked closely with the hooeey technical team to ensure the ease of use. Following hooeey's interactions with the design team, features like web tours, the time line graph and ratings were incorporated.
In October 2007, the newer version of hooeey was uploaded, with the aim of ironing out any small hitches.
Today, we officially launch hooeey. A result of a deep understanding of Internet user's requirements, translation into a robust architecture, adaptation using the latest in software technology and rich in features and user interface.
Hooeey has always been an endeavor to read the pulse of its user, and towards this end the entire team believes that the launch is a new beginning with periodic requirements for better features, and a responsibility towards the Internet community to provide services in an unintrusive and secure platform.

She's not just a Preity face
Actress is happy to own new Stellenbosch Kings
BOLLYWOOD superstar Preity Zinta has assured local cricket fans that she'll be in the stands to show her full support for her T20 team, Stellenbosch Kings, despite her busy schedule.
The popular Indian actress has a new Bollywood movie coming out soon, and has countless model shoots to attend, but Zinta says there is no way she will miss out on seeing her newly acquired team in action in November.
"I'm a hands-on person, so I definitely will be here," she told the Saturday Star yesterday.
The Bollywood megastar, who is also the owner of Indian Premier League team Kings XI Punjab, was in South Africa this week when she announced plans for her newly-acquired T20 Global League franchise.
The 42-year-old was confirmed as the new owner after South African businessman Mushtaq Brey pulled out at the last minute.
"It's not the cricket part that I'm worried about because we have the best in the business. But I'm worried about all the other things, the teething problems that come with firsttime experience, so I need to make sure I'm here.
"Also my husband and my family will be coming because we all want to go for a safari, and for a lovely wine-tasting trip. Everyone is really excited."
Zinta says she is thrilled to have acquired the Stellenbosch Kings, and has high hopes for her team in the debut Global League.
"I feel like a kid in a candy store. I've been in this business, but in India it's a different ball game compared to South Africa.
"So even though I know what it's like to run the business, the fact that you are going to a new country, adapting to a new culture, is very exciting. I'm a little bit nervous, but so grateful for the way things turned out."
Zinta believes she has inherited a very "well-balanced team".
"We have a fantastic bowling line-up, a lot of young talented players, and some hard hitters.
"We are also very fortunate to have Faf du Plessis captaining the team, and to have coaches like Eric Simons and Stephen Fleming is a blessing, so I'm thrilled and confident that we will do well."
Zinta says she has a special love of South African cricketers.
"The reason why I and many other cricket lovers from India love South African cricketers is their attitude towards the game.
"I love Hashim Amla; he plays for the Kings XI. When I first met him he was the most quiet guy. He inspires all the youngsters.
"He doesn't say much, but lets his bat do the talking."
While Zinta may own two cricket franchises, she admits that she wasn't a cricket fan all her life.
"I'm so sorry to break your heart, but I never watched any cricket growing up. I never liked it. In school, I did athletics; I played basketball, rifle shooting, karate, and even gymnastics. I did everything besides cricket."
Zinta only got into cricket when she purchased the IPL team Kings XI Punjab in 2008.
"I knew nothing about the game. But I was very eager to learn. So I made a barter deal with one of the fielding coaches from Kings XI. I told him that I would teach him one thing about film every day if he taught me one thing about cricket.
"Every day he taught me one thing, like what's an off-spinner, a leg-spinner, a bouncer, what does LBW mean, just basic stuff about cricket.
"After 10 years I've learnt a lot, but I wouldn't say I'm an expert."
Zinta says she is thrilled that fellow Bollywood star Shahrukh Khan has also purchased a T20 team in the Global T20 League.
"I love Shahrukh. I started my film career with him in the movie Dil Se. I started my cricket career with him in the IPL, and now I'm starting my inter national cricket career with him in South Africa.
"He's a very dear friend, someone I respect a lot and love, and we have a great relationship. I'm very happy he's close by so we get to hang out and party a bit."
Zinta also revealed her excitement at returning to the big screen for the upcoming movie Bhaiyyaji Superhitt, which will be released in the next few months. Zinta hasn't appeared in a Bollywood movie since 2013.
"I'm excited because it's a very mad film that I'm doing after a very long time.
"I reached a point where I didn't want to do any bubbly roles.
"I wanted to do serious roles, roles that are heavy-duty.
"This one is a crazy film, I play a crazy character, and I had lots of fun shooting it.
"I think people are going to laugh. It's an action comedy and I'm very excited about it."

I have a senior shoot on Thursday and i'm dreading it. :P
With my last pregnancy it was any music by Jack Johnson.... yuckyuckyuck... and I loved his music. But it was MONTHS before I could listen to it without my stomach turning. And NOW... photography. I don't know what I'm gonna do but if anyone has any suggestions, I'll take em.

Another Baby "T"
...only this time it was a sweet baby boy. And when I say sweet.... I mean sooooooooo SWEET! I have a TON more to proof of this little guy, but this one stood out to me right away. This was actually an "Accidental" shot that I took inbetween poses. Mom was shifting the baby from one pose to the next and I snapped this one. I wish i had set it up a little more so that I could of gotten his cute feet and right hand in focus..... but..... the more i look at it, the more it becomes one of my favorites! I'll have more to share later, but for now... meet sweet baby "T"...

Baby "T"
...which could represent any of this baby girl's cousins since they ALL start with the letter T. But she is the newest addition to their family and she is such a sweetheart. I had visions and dreams of those beautifully posed sleeping newborn shots but she had other plans. I guess it just doesn't work that way when the newborn is 6 weeks old. :) I think i caught her sleeping in 2 or 3 of the shots, but she wasn't too fond of my shutter noise. And I was lucky to capture a few without her hand infront of her face. Can you believe those big beautiful eyes of hers?!? Just gorgeous!
she loved her daddy....
and Wish me luck... I have another newborn in the morning and a family session tomorrow night. What have I gotten myself into????

Dear God in heaven,
I know you are there, I can hear the chuckling. Just so you know I think it is kind of funny as well. just a little less since I am the one who for some reason thought a nice 5 mile ride would be good today. Even as I knew that a 5 Mile ride would not be good.
Still it was what I needed -- And you knew that. I guess that is just one of the perks of being God.
So the truth is I'm sore, I'm tired, and my butt hurts. I am also feeling much better than I was when I forced myself to go out riding. FORCED is the right word for it. I had to go and get my bike twice, since the first time I talked myself out of it. I told myself that the walk to the bank and back at lunch was enough. Thankfully I talked myself out of it and went riding anyway.
There is something magical about going out for a ride, even if it is just to ride in circles. You see I have things going on in my head. All the time. Nothing spooky like voices telling me do things, just thoughts, worries, daydreams. that kind of stuff, it is always there, clamoring for attention. A lot of the time those thoughts are less than pleasant. They are thoughts about being out of shape, being alone, worries about work, and worries about money. Still when I'm on the bike and riding those thoughts all stop..
and the silence
is wonderful.
Yet, not everything about the ride was all sunbeams and lolipops. At first the plan was to ride 10 miles (what the hell was I thinking?) but as I rode the laps around the School by my house I soon saw that while 10 miles was a pipe dream I figured 5 miles was a good start. I might not have made it that far if it wasn't for the woman walking her dog who was just way to cute (the woman not the dog) and I kept going around just one more time to get another look.
I may be a dirty old man but I'm a dirty old man who takes his inspiration where I can.

Longest 5 Miles of my Life
4 comments:

Thanks man,ReplyDelete

I completely understand. I had to FORCE myself to go out and ride today(I'm trying to get ready to do the NYC 5boros bike tour May 1st) but once I was out there riding everything was ok, even tho the wind tried to knock me over more than once, riding is fun, period.ReplyDelete
Way to go!!! That first 5 miles is a great start!!!
I ride an orange bike too.

The answer would surprise you if you got fooled by campaign rhetoric. If you pay attention to what is really happening, though, it won't surprise you one bit:
As the 2008 campaign nears its conclusion, the presidential transition efforts of the two major candidates have become a study in contrasts: Sen. Barack Obama has organized an elaborate well-staffed network to prepare for his possible ascension to the White House, while Sen. John McCain has all but put off such work until after the election.
Again, John McCain shows poor judgment. Not only that, but he is putting our country at risk and not living up to his "Country First" campaign slogan by not being ready to hit the ground running should he improbably win this election. The next President will face so many challenges, to not have prepared for it by putting together an effective transition plan is just crazy.
Barack Obama, by contrast, is steady as she goes and preparing to be ready to lead on day one. If you've watched the two campaigns closely this will not surprise you at all. The Obama team has been steady as she goes the entire way, with one theme and one overall strategy. McCain on the other hand has been like a rabid dog getting more and more cornered.
Preparing transition teams during the campaigning process is not at all new and not at all presumptuous. It's called planning. Something the erratic John McCain apparently doesn't do.
Obama is ready to lead on day one, with sound and steady judgment and the change we need now. The contrast could not be more stark. The choice could not be more clear.

Sustainable Farming through Agroecology
Thu, 19/01/2017 - 11:37
Dear TECA members,
We would like to invite you to participate in the upcoming discussion on "Sustainable Farming through Agroecology", particularly addressing the role of agroecological farming practices in contributing to sustainable agriculture and food systems. Agroecology is based on applying ecological concepts and principles to optimize interactions between plants, animals, humans and the environment while considering the social aspects required for a sustainable and fair food system. The role of farmers in this context is extremely pivotal: apart from being responsible for food production, they can also play a crucial role in protecting the environment.
The objective of this discussion is to identify successful agroecological farming practices, and exchange knowledge and experiences among involved stakeholders. We encourage individual farmers, farmer organizations, extension services, NGOs, researchers and every individual interested in agroecology to participate in the upcoming discussions and share your practices which have given positive results.
We would like to start with an introductory post from 23-Jan-2017 to 10-Feb-2017 in order to ensure a common understanding of agroecology, offer the opportunity to get familiar with the topic and ask questions to our technical experts. This discussion will be structured along the following topics:
- Need of sustainable farming and agroecology (available from 23 Jan)
- Agroecology and sustainable agroecosystems (available from 25 Jan)
- Elements of agroecology (available from 30 Jan)
- Agroecological farmer practices (available from 1 Feb)
Upcoming discussions:
- Agroecology and soil fertility – 20 Feb, 2017 to 12 Mar, 2017
- Agroecology and nutrition – 20 Mar, 2017 to 10 Apr, 2017
We are happy to introduce our expert who will be able to answer your questions and share their experiences with us during this introductory discussion.
- Carolina Starr, Biodiversity and Ecosystems Services, FAO
- Mariane Carvalho Vidal, Empraba - Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation, Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Food Supply
- David Ardhian, Research Analyst, Bogor Agricultural University
In your first post on TECA, kindly introduce yourself and tell us something about your background (your occupation, your country). If you feel more comfortable to post your contributions in French or Spanish, we will try to translate or summarize your post in English. We are looking forward for your enriching contributions to the discussion on "Sustainable Farming through Agroecology".

Indigenous Millets-based, Mixed Agro-Ecological Farming Systems
The indigenous millets-based, mixed agro-ecological systems found mostly in the rainfed and semi-arid agro-climatic zones of India are not only resilient but also sustainable (socially, economically, institutionally and environmentally). These indigenous agro-ecological systems are however at the verge of extinction and confiend to only tribal dominated and remote regions of the sub-continent. Fortunately we had the opportunity to capture few stories about the farmers (mostly women) who have been practicing millets-based, mixed agriculture in remote villages of the eastern Indian state of Odisha.

Agro-ecological practices examples
Thank you Kanna for sharing your practice on SRI techniques and Indigenous millets based mixed agro-ecological farming systems in Odisha, India. The success stories of implementation of these practices are indeed inspiring. If you are aware of more such practices illustrating the implementation of agroecological principles, it would be very nice to share them during this discussion.

Agro-ecology is also about socio-cultural aspects
The annual indigenous traditional community seed festivals have been an ancient practice in India and an integral part of the indigenous farming culture. There is no gainsaying that conservation of agro-biodiversity and agro-ecology is indispensable for food security and indigenous farmers realized it long ago. As an ancient practice, the indigenous farmers in India have been exchanging indigenous heirloom seeds not only among themselves but also passing down the generations both the knowledge and heirloom seeds through observation of indigenous traditional community seed festivals. The indigenous traditional community seed festivals have an inbuilt conservation aspect to it, which acts as the indigenous agro-biodiversity keeper. The indigenous traditional community seed festivals act as a means of exchange of indigenous heirloom seeds and act as a repository to conserve and increase indigenous heirloom seed diversity, agro-biodiversity, and diversity of the traditional food basket.
The indigenous traditional community seed festivals creates also a platform for farmers to come together to share their indigenous knowledge, exchange their ideas and culture. In addition these festivals create spaces for identification of indigenous crops which are pest and disease resistant, gives better yields and income to the farmers. Unlike the conventional market based seed supply systems, exchange of indigenous heirloom seeds and knowledge at the indigenous seed festivals is free of cost. Furthermore, the ancient practice is socio-culturally, economically, institutionally and ecologically sustainable. However, the pervasive market driven, industry-based, modern agriculture system had been replacing not only the indigenous agro-biodiversity but also driving the intricately entwined socio-cultural practices with indigenous agro-biodiversity to extinction.

Indigenous traditional community seed festivals
Thank you, Kanna for telling us about the traditional community seed festivals in India. This is a very nice example of how socio-cultural aspects form a core part of agroecology.

Elements of agroecology
Agroecology has been defined as "the use of ecological principles for the design of agricultural systems". It is increasingly recognized that agroecology also addresses, in an indivisible way, economic and social dimensions in the food system. Agroecology offers more than a "design framework for sustainable agroecosystems". Agroecological principles should suggest the general elements of a sustainable food system. In alignment with this approach, FAO has identified 10 key elements, derived from the general principles articulated for agroecology. As projects, programmes and policies are developed to support agroecology, different elements may come to play in various configurations, with a strong blend between ecological and socio-economic elements.
- Efficiency: Farmers emphasize the conservation of soil, water, energy, and biological resources and use these natural resources more efficiently. For example, they need less external inputs (fertilizers, seeds, water etc.) to obtain a similar or even a greater yield and reduce the cost of production. Efficiency also recognizes the value in connecting consumers with producers in short circuits, promoting a more efficient food value chain, including reducing of post-harvest food waste.
- Balance: Securing favorable soil conditions and self-regulation inside the food system. Natural ecosystems have the ability to self-regulate and attain a natural balance between pests, disease and natural enemies. Farmers take into account the ability of the community of organisms (plants, soil microorganisms etc.) and their interactions in order to dampen pest outbreaks, and manage pests, diseases and weeds and restoring the balance of the system.
- Diversity: Farmers focus on increasing the variety of species and genetic resources (crop seeds, animals, plants) within a food systems. The biological and genetic potential of agricultural plant and animal species can furthermore be adapted to the ecological conditions of the farm. Crop diversity reduces the risk of crop failure and other climate-related shocks. On larger scales, agroforestry and land regeneration have been shown to effectively enhance farmers' food security, income and resilience.
- Co-creation of knowledge: Local and traditional knowledge and innovation to create sustainable food systems based on local needs and local ecosystems - Agroecology is knowledge-intensive. Agroecological practices are best adopted when they are not imposed top-down but shared from farmer-to-farmer. The co-creation of knowledge is necessary to facilitate agroecological transitions and the ownership of the knowledge should be protected through appropriate instruments. Education – both formal and non-formal – plays a fundamental role in promoting the co-creation of knowledge, and should be shared in a horizontal way.
- Recycling: Reutilizing nutrients and biomass existing inside the farming system and increased use of renewable resources. It also reduces the use of external (off-farm) inputs (e.g. mineral fertilizers) harmful for the environment or the health of farmers, farm workers, or consumers. Agroecology is based on the principle that the flow and cycling of nutrients within a farming system should enhance the system through biological means. Above-ground biomass is managed to maintain and restore natural fertility, even on degraded soils. Below-ground functional biodiversity is enhanced by amplifying biogeochemical cycles in the soil, recycling nutrients from the soil profile and increasing microbial activity. Recycling occurs at multiple levels; it can be augmented within farms and landscapes by integrating livestock with crops.
- Synergies: Designing food systems with an optimal crop/animal assemblage, while promoting ecological functions for self-regulation in foods system - Great strength can be drawn from building on synergies in food systems, including synergies between people and in managing different components of the system. For example, by assembling crops, animals, trees, soils and other factors in spatially/temporally diversified schemes, the agro-ecosystem may build its own capacity to enhance soil fertility, natural pest regulation, crop productivity, and community empowerment. Synergies can also be built in communities through cooperation, instead of competition, in food systems.
- Human and social value: building food systems based on the culture, identity, tradition, innovation and knowledge of local communities and livelihoods, favoring social dynamics that focus on women's and youth's role in agricultural development which is vital to achieving food security and nutrition. Agroecology places an emphasis on values, such as the local, empirical knowledge of farmers and communities who are at the heart of food production, and on sharing this knowledge to empower communities.
- Circular economy: A circular economy enhances short food circuits. They are mainly characterized by local production and local consumption. Local production also includes the use of inputs obtained from local sources, ideally naturally-occurring materials instead of synthetic, manufactured inputs. This also reduces the costs and increases the farmers' income. Local consumption requires local markets which also ensure fair prices for products. Circular economies also take into consideration the role of diversity as a characteristic of resilient and productive systems.
- Culture and food traditions: Healthy, diversified and culturally appropriate diets deliver good nutrition while assuring the health of ecosystems. Increasing production alone is not sufficient to eliminate hunger and food insecurity. Agroecology plays an important role in re-connecting tradition and modern food habits, bringing them together in a harmonious way that promotes healthy food production and consumption, supporting the right to adequate food.
- Land and natural resources governance: Recognizing and supporting smallholder food producers as sustainable managers and guardians of natural and genetic resources. To ensure a fair and inclusive food system, farmers and food producers need to have access to natural and genetic resources, including land and water. Agroecology promotes fair and efficient use of surface and groundwater and applies a landscape approach to land governance, for example, discussing land tenure issues at the community level.

FAO Strategic Objective One
As a research area, agroecology focuses on agricultural systems. As a focus area of FAO, I am looking at FAO Strategic Objective One, which states as a matter of principle that the goal is to help eliminate hunger, food insecurity, and malnutrition. FAO is formed on 16 October 1945 days after the conclusion of World War Two. We do not know whether will another full blown world war take place in the 21st century, which is why I will be discoursing from both historical and localised perspectives concurrently.
Historically, World War Two in the 20th century saw rapid modernisation of fascist regimes primarily in Italy, Germany and Japan. The underlying motivation had hunger as one of its causes. While Italy was mostly ideologically driven, Germany was facing crippling population woes due to stringent post World War One treaty clauses. While most cities today such as Singapore in 2016 are more densely populated than Berlin before 1939, the lack of scientific and technological advancements meant that substantial proportion of Germans were living in the suburbs and rural areas partially or entirely as farmers. Like Japan before 1939, the complexity of juggling industrialisation and modernisation in Fascist countries were made more complicated with starving folk populaces and imperfectly controlled state education systems.
War was and probably still may hence deemed as an ultimate necessity by starving regimes in expanding a nation's productivity, at the expense of neighbouring countries. The idea of starving regimes seemed simple, either we consume others, or others might consume us. What was evil about war was essentially what made the most wholesome sense as well, the world needed and needs farmers, the sometimes subtle question is who did and who does the farming.Since timeless beginnings, soldiers are one of the key elements of agroecology. Soldiers eat, like civilians. When soldiers are away from the warfronts, either the state caters in favour of their dietary habits, or they have been learning farming practices before Jesus Christ spoke of God. Civilian farmers complement farming soldiers. The governments and their agencies come into the picture as an authority is needed to determine how farming lands are divided amongst the farming populaces especially in landlocked countries or provinces. While the sun, wind, rain and soil looks after themselves, agriculture and / or agroecology still requires some degree of human or machine intervention. The vegetable seeds as an example, need sowing.
We can own cows or oxen as agriculturists, but most of their hooves cannot sow seeds, much lesser machines that need homo sapiens to fill up the gas tanks.
Even though agricultural plants as simple as peanuts and tapioca can reproduce themselves over a substantial surface area without human intervention, the ecosystem is not complete if there were only plants on this planet without any animals or homo sapiens; the earthworms may not appear significant to the naked eye, but a huge plot of fertile land near the North Pole can be totally useless for agriculture if all the unseen earthworms underground are frozen dead.
With the above described, I hence concur with the 10 key elements identified by FAO, and I further add with regard the following three localised perspectives, as well as FAO's comparative advantage with Singapore as a member nation:
Eliminating Hunger
As a republic, Singapore is one of the smallest countries in the world with a geographical area of only 768km2. A typical collective farmland in major nuclear powers is often bigger than the entire surface area of Singapore combined. We do not have natural access to drinking water and we rely on our reservoir networks and today desalination in eliminating thirst, which precedes hunger for survival of our nation. Where food and water are concerned, we import and depend on our trade partners for subsistence. The overall population of more than five million depends on agricultural produces from neighbours such as Johore for raw food and water supplies.
Ideally, sustainability in Singapore can only be possible with a peaceful, harmonious and cooperative framework and / or mindset. As a Maslow basic need, food and water can only account for a fraction of daily routine i.e. consumption and hydration, but hunger as well as thirst recur particularly along the equator as homo sapiens excrete according to the planet's weather patterns too. From a broader perspective, eliminating hunger as well as thirst can only be assailable in a law abiding framework, which is why Singapore values our cooperation and member status with United Nations programmes and specialised agencies such as FAO. Why?
In the absence of war, our bilateral and multi lateral agreements have room for diplomatic manuveurs. By sustaining a high national income, currency and employability, both our food and water sources can be traded for.
Eliminating hunger takes two hands to clap, the consumer has to be satisfactorily fed and contented, while the producer has to be adequately compensated and subsidised. Eliminating hunger is only wholesomely fulfilled when gets to keep his / her offsprings in order to get his produces delivered to the market. Good, uncorrupted governances are hence more than necessary in securing this.
I cite one obvious case of failure i.e. Somalia. Since the 1990s, the Somalian have been both corrupted and rogue, warlords kill one another due to faction wars. Even when the United Nations peacekeeping missions intervened, food supplies were less than able supporting the famine because the warlords confiscated the grains to feed their own militia. While this is not entirely a goner because the militia are paid food supplies in return of their allegiance to the warlords, this is unskilful because of all the human lives lost violently due to the lack of respect of human lives.
Hunger cannot be eliminated if leaders utterly fail to respect human lives, because they won't respect animal lives too. In Singapore, all forms of agricultural producers are agroecologies in practice because our farms are way too small compared with other big nations.
Food Insecurity
Enter agroecology once more. In a civil economic framework, agroecology can thrive because localised practitioners can complement importers and distributors. Agroecologists in Singapore that receive subsidies or grants from an uncorrupt and stable governance can then aid food insecurity be researching methods of industrialisation as well as go to market practices. In recent years, Singapore has been experimenting with growing vegetables in vertical farms as well as growing local grains in laboratory farms. How we cope with food insecurity is at least two pronged. We sustain our pre existing trade models if importing agricultural produces, water as well as exporting consumer products and petroleum, but we are also researching newer approaches to cater for emergencies. Our limitations and weaknesses turn out to be our strengths when we learn and improvise.
Hence, education and literacy is necessary in ensuring that locals understand our food and water sources. Security is often regarded by Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs as a middle tier comparable with intimacy and love. This is different from eliminating hunger which is a primitive basic need like carnality and sleep. When we can have our water and food and consume them, we then look at economic models of sustainability. Outside of the UN and FAO framework, Singapore perceives ASEAN as a major economic cooperation partner since most Singaporeans are rice consumers. Our rice sources include Thailand, and we thus value regional stability as coup d'etats in Thailand can occasionally threaten the security of our rice imports.
Nutrition or Malnutrition is a complex scientific study. As an old adage goes: one man's meat (hence medicine) is another man's poison. Theoretically, any food commodity that is available in the retail market is usually without a substitute. As an example, vegans do find substitutes for pork, chicken and other meat items in catering towards their nutritional needs. My mother herself used to suffer from thyroid, her condition is perhaps malnutrition but also genetic, i.e. it runs in the family.
Addressing malnutrition hence require a decent healthcare framework. In my mother's case, she does not like fish apparently which offers iodine that addresses thyroid conditions at times. A substitute of fish is seaweed, which is popular in East Asian societies. As most of nutrition information is already beyond my high school biology knowledge, I end here tentatively by proposing that one be mindful or watchful of what one partakes in consumption. Too much of a good thing at times is also ill advised.
Good practices brings better yields and workers
Quite interesting to read Prachi's latest comments. All the points seem to match nicely what we do here in Malaysia with our organic waste processing and converting them to sustainable soil amendment and planting media which we use in our farms for growing vegetables and fruits organically. I must say that through these practices, we have managed to reduce our cost and improve on our quality of produces, giving us better yields and a much happier and better workforce. With organic farming, farmers are now more comfortable to bring their children to the farm where they can work with peace of mind, knowing that all is well on the home front with the land being safe for their kids to roam around as they work on the land.

Thank you
Thank you, Paul for sharing your experiences with organic farming in Malaysia with us. It is good to hear about the benefits you experienced with this practice. It would be nice to know more about the compost. Can you please elaborate on the practice you are using in Malaysia? Thank you very much!
For our compost, we make use of agricultural wastes readily available nearby. These are initially broken down via heat treatment and vermicompost methods, following which we then treat it with our liquid soil enhancers to boost the nutrient levels, rebalancing the macro and micro nutirients. After the variety of treatments, the compost should show an acceptable pH level organically before applying back to the land or used for seeding.
The picture shows the results of seeding using peat moss versus our compost.

biofertilizer and microbial inoculants
I am a PhD student at the University of Basel in Switzerland and would like to share with you some insights of our project biofertilization and bioirrigation (BIOFI) within the Indo-Swiss Collaboration in Biotechnology (ISCB). Biofertilizers or microbial inoculants are being tested since the 1980s and several groups have been found to improve plant growth in several ways like solubilizing nutrients (P, K, S) or by fixing nitrogen. In field trials in South India we are testing the application of both arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and P solubilizing bacteria in the mixed cropping system of pigeon pea and finger millet, common in Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, India. The biofertilizers that we use originate in South India and are thus are endemic to this region as the introduction of new soil organisms may change the microbial community irreversibly. Although we could not always find an increase in yield due to mixed cropping, the biofertilizers allowed to sustain the yield levels with half of the mineral fertilizers.
Biofertilizers have a large potential to improve nutrient use efficiency, sparing the limited phosphorus ressources and reduce the input of nitrogen. The success of biofertilizer application have been inconsistent but in a meta analysis (not published yet) we were able to show that for example each group of biofertilizers have their optimum level of soil available phosphorus enabling them to improve yields by up to 40%. We also identified climate as an important factor and the application in general was more successful under arid and semiarid climate. Although the application of biofertilizers may seem a highly technical approach as they need to be reared and distributed to the farmers, agriculture is artificial in many ways by having times where the soil is bare or is tilled. These tecniques disturb the soil community and the reintroduction of preselected microorganisms seem to be an important element for future ecointensified agricultural systems. The great problem yet are missing quality controls and regulations of biofertilizer products and sometimes the storage time of such products.

Carly Fiorina defended fellow Republican candidate Ben Carson from criticism about his biography Saturday, one day after Politico ran a story questioning the veracity of his claims about receiving a scholarship from West Point.
"I know Ben Carson. He's a good man," Fiorina said during an interview for Sunday's episode of "Meet the Press."
Fiorina said she did not think voters cared about whether Carson exaggerated details of his personal story.
"I'm out here on the trail all day long, and I just don't get asked questions about, you know, hammers and stabbings and West Point and Westmoreland," said the former Hewlett-Packard CEO, who ranks sixth in the Washington Examiner's power rankings.Read more on WashingtonExaminer.com
