Family Safaris
Chem Chem Lodge is a great option in Northern Tanzania, it is located in 20,000ha of private land within the Burunge Wildlife Management Area, an important conservation corridor between Lake Manyara and Tarangire National Parks.
Chem Chem Lodge is a lovely property with excellent finishing touches throughout, not only apparent in the accomodation but also in the service. One of the things that we love about Chem Chem is that it is owned and run by true wildlife and wilderness enthusiasts, we believe that these small privately run affairs more often than not stand out as the gems of the continent, offering outstanding experience and attention to detail.
Chem Chem Lodge is a really nice family option with a dedicated family tent and a really nice homely feel, including all the creature comforts you could need on safari. For families it works well as either a 4 night stay combined with Zanzibar or for families with older children as part of a driving safari of the northern circuit.
Apart from a stunning camp and great game viewing there are a number of advantages to this location, you avoid much of the busy areas of the national parks, you can visit both national parks as well as the game management area making moving camps less necessary, while its location makes it a great stop as part of a northern circuit driving itinerary.

A gorgeous Sunday morning!
Unfortunately, only a smathering of white clouds. Like a brush stroke across the sky.
We need rain! No rain yesterday. Looks like no rain today.
Yesterday was a good day for me. Pleasant best describes it.
I spent the day writing. Outside under the tiki hut by the water. I write like I read. Generally, three books at a time. I am writing three novels at one time. I skip back and forth.
Writing is an interesting experience. Each sentence is a work of art. Better said, each word.
I may never finish any of the books I am writing. Regardless, I am enjoying the effort.
I wanted to be alone last night. I was in that kind of mood.
I started at the Chart Room. Initially just me and JJ the bartender. Then a lovely young lady appeared. Lovely is not sufficient to describe her beauty. Tall, thin, tanned. A sparkle in her eyes.
Her name Kristin Heinichen. She has only been in Key West four days. She has decided to settle here for a while. She was sailing the Carribean and put into Key West. Key West impacted her immeditely. She is living out on the ocean on her sail boat.
Kristin is a photo journalist. Takes pictures and writes. She wants to do a work on Key West figures/characters. In only four days, she discovered how interesting they are and how interesting Key West is.
She is originally from Chicago. An Ohio University graduate. Majored in journalism.
I volunteered some people and places she should get into. She wrote like mad taking my suggestions down. She then was off to Mallory Square for the sunset. I told her that was not Key West. The locals are where it is at for her purposes.
I wish her well. I am sure we will run into each other again.
It was 9 o'clock. I had not eaten since 11 in the morning. My stomach was growling. I decided to go to the Wine Galley for dinner and Larry Smith. Larry chastised me at the golf course the other day. He said it was over a year since I had been to the Wine Galley to hear him perform. He was correct.
Larry was glad to see me. He gave me that about time look.
I was seated at the bar. Some woman was at the piano talking to Larry. He introduced her to me . Key West Lou.
She came to the bar and sat next to me. We had a pleasant evening together.
Her name is Candy Sargent. She lived in Key West at one time for 26 years. Then traveled a bit. Now lives full time in Hawaii. She widowed about a year ago. She is now on a long term trip to mainland USA visiting old friends. Tonight, girl friends of old. Next week to Boston to visit relatives. Then a week or two on the Cape.
A small world it is. One of her best friends in Key West is Jackie Lefferts. My doctor! Jackie picked her up at the airport when she arrived. Candy is playing golf this morning with Jackie's husband Michael. They are teeing off at 7 in a scramble. Michael and I have played golf together on occasion. He is pretty good. My sense however is that Candy is better. A smart move on Michael's part to have her on his scramble team.
When I told Candy what I shoot, she looked startled. Like no one can be that bad! I am.
This morning a winner! I woke to an old musical on TV. The life of Sigmund Romberg. He wrote the likes of The Student Prince, The Desert Song and My romance.
Jose Ferrer starred. He won a couple of Oscars in the late 1940s and early 1950s. His first was for his performance as the Dauphin in Joan of Arc. If my memory is correct, the second was for the lead role in Cyrano de Bergerac.
A ton of actors played cameo roles singing Romberg's tunes.
Great music and acting! I lay in bed and enjoyed.
A good twenty four hours. Hopefully, today will be just as good. Probably will be. It is hard not to have a good day in Key West.
Enjoy your Sunday!

Cracked heels are common
Don't worry that you've somehow mistreated your feet because your heels are dry and cracked. "Dry heels – aka xerosis – is very common in the feet and heels because they're constantly under pressure from shoes and walking," says podiatrist, Dr Emily Splichal. She adds that cracked heels tend to appear more often during the summer, as feet spend more time exposed and in sandals. "Without proper exfoliation and hydration, the rate of callus or dry heel formation can accelerate," she says. And of course, if you wear high heels, they do a number on your feet.
Use creams designed for the feet
A regular daily body moisturiser is not going to do enough to benefit cracked heels. Podiatrist, Dr Jacqueline Sutera recommends using creams that are specially formulated for tougher foot skin, including amlactin and kerasal. "These have gentle but effective acids that help break down the callous a little at a time," she says.
Learn how to stay on your feet despite corns, calluses and cracked heels.
Look for key ingredients
If you're battling cracked heels, you'll need to slather moisturiser on your feet daily. Another option is a multitasking product that contains urea, lactic acid, or salicylic acid.

CHANDLER, Ariz. — Five weeks after reopening its casinos, Gila River Gaming Enterprises Inc. temporarily closed three facilities for two weeks as COVID-19 cases are on the rise in Arizona.
The Gila River Indian Community said it opted to again close the properties, citing the rising COVID-19 case numbers in Arizona, following a review of its safety plan and feedback from the community and team members. The tribe operates casinos in Wild Horse Pass, Lone Butte and Vee Quiva.
"Nothing is more important to our Community than the well-being of our team members and guests, children, elders and families," Gila River Indian Community Gov. Stephen Roe Lewis said in a statement. "Like our sister tribes and businesses all over Arizona, we have tried to do what is best for all, while processing new information and new guidelines about the pandemic with little in the way of definitive guidance."
The temporary casino and hotel closures, effective as of Thursday, June 18, came less than five weeks after the Gila River Indian Community's hotel and casino operations reopened in central Arizona. The casinos were closed from mid March through May 15.
As well, a security guard at the Lone Butte Casino died June 11 after suffering complications from COVID-19, according to a report in the Arizona Republic, which noted Gila River Gaming declined to disclose the number of employees who have tested positive.
In a statement to Casino.org, Gila River Gaming said it was unknown if the employee contracted the virus at work, and the organization's contact tracing revealed that none of his co-workers tested positive.
At the time of Gila River Hotels & Casinos' mid-May reopening and through the end of that month, Arizona was reporting fewer than 600 confirmed new cases of COVID-19 per day. The number of new confirmed cases spiked throughout the month of June, reaching a daily average of 1,549 through June 20, according to a Native News Online analysis of Arizona Department of Health Services data.
About 57 percent of all confirmed COVID-19 cases in Arizona were reported from June 1-20. The state reported its first case on Jan. 22.
Gila River Gaming plans to closely monitor the COVID-19 cases during the two-week shutdown and "re-examine every aspect of its operation," including disinfection procedures, social distancing measures, health checks, testing protocols, masking and how best to protect workers and guests.
All employees of the Gila River Hotels & Casinos at Wild Horse Pass, Lone Butte and Vee Quiva will receive their full pay and benefits despite the temporary closure, according to a statement.
Gila River Gaming Enterprises also canceled and refunded hotel reservations at its Wild Horse Pass and Vee Quida properties through July 19.

The Apostolic Doctor, Capuchin Franciscan Priest and Doctor of the Church (1559-1619)
His life
+ Lawrence was born in Brindisi, Italy, and entered the Capuchin Franciscans at the age of sixteen. He quickly developed a reputation as being a gifted scholar.
+ Conversant in several languages, Lawrence considered preaching to be his primary ministry. Because of his gifts as an administrator, he was appointed provincial and served as superior general of the Capuchins from 1602-1605.
+ Lawrence's surviving writings include many of his sermons, commentaries on Sacred Scripture, and a number of controversial works against Lutheranism. His sermons and treastises on the Blessed Virgin have led some to call him the most influential Marian scholar of his time.
+ Saint Lawrence of Brindisi died in 1619 and was canonized in 1881. Pope Saint John XXIII proclaimed him a Doctor of the Church in 1959, granting him the title Doctor Apostolicus (the "Apostolic Doctor").
For prayer and reflection
"Saint Lawrence of Brindisi teaches us to love Sacred Scripture, to increase in familiarity with it, to cultivate daily relations of friendship with the Lord in prayer, so that our every action, our every activity, may have its beginning and its fulfilment in him. This is the source from which to draw so that our Christian witness may be luminous and able to lead the people of our time to God."—Saint Lawrence of Brindisi
O God, who for the glory of your name
and the salvation of souls
bestowed on the Priest Saint Lawrence of Brindisi
a spirit of counsel and fortitude,
grant, we pray, that in the same spirit,
we may know what must be done
and, through his intercession,
bring it to completion.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
(from The Roman Missal)

Interviews with English Sawyers
Times were hard for sawyers in the English towns, and getting worse. While weavers were still decades away from experiencing the threat of steam powered looms, by 1830 steam powered saw mills had been working hard for twenty years to eliminate the need for the once-critical wood workers.Edward Biggs, born in Kidderminster, England, in 1789, was a sawyer all of his life until his death in 1832, and his four sons worked as sawyers before heading to America. "We are nearly all married men with families," one sawyer told a reporter in the early 1800's. "Families seems a sort of gift to poor men, instead of to rich ones."Before 1830, a sawyer took on apprentices. One master sawyer would have as many as five apprentices. "I was an apprentice for seven years," said a young sawyer. "And I worked alongside my father," said another with 35 years of experience. "It was the rule of our trade that the eldest son was entitled to his father's business. Now I don't see a sawyer…who has one."We take for granted that powerful machinery can slice trees into usable lumber within seconds, but up until 1800 it was the sole job of a pair of men to pull a saw vertically through a piece of timber to cut each plank separately. It was semi-skilled labor, but work was abundant everywhere– in the lumber yards, on the docks, and cabinet shops, until machinery did the job better.The sawyer's work was specific. A piece of timber was laid on a brace straddling a trench in which one sawyer, called a pitman, would work the bottom of the long saw. A second sawyer, called a topman, would stand above and guide the saw as they cut lengthwise down the timber. Each cut sliced off a plank to be used as lumber or veneer.Sawyers were often paid in the public house (tavern) where they were "obliged to take their beer every day…some of us had to go home with nothing on a Saturday night." "I know of no teetotalers among us," said one pitman. "Sawing is hard work, and requires four or five pints of beer a day to support a man, but many drink a great deal more. The public house system made men drunkards – I'm sure it did, sir."Another interjected, "Take sawyers altogether, they're fond of a drop, but I don't think them rougher than other people when they're in liquor…I have known sawyers working at 70 years old, hard work as it is. We live as long as other people, I think.""In the year '26 it was as good a time for sawyers as ever it was – there was a good demand for men, and good wages," one sawyer remembered. He was 55 and in the trade 40 years. "About 1827, they [powered saw mills that once only cut veneer] began to get general and were used to cut timber, and as fast as the saw mills have been starting up so we have been going down," he complained. "We have only rough work, and what the saw mills can't or won't do."The occupation of sawyer was hit hard by the changing technology of an Industrial Revolution we don't think about. "Many that I am acquainted with have left it, and many more would be glad to get away from it," said the topman. "Some few sawyers put their boys to the trade because they haven't the means to apprentice them to anything else…All that the two earns then goes to one home.""After all this I leaves you to judge what our opinion is about machinery. Of course we looks upon it as a curse. We have no chance to compete with a machine; it isn't taxed, you see, as we are," said the old sawyer. "Even the machines, some of them, can't hardly raise the price of the coals to get the fire up. Machinery's are very powerful, sir, but competition is much stronger."
Interviews taken from Henry Mayhew's Voices of the Poor, a series of articles published by London's Morning Chronicle between 1849 and 1851.

It was tedious labor, overspecialized and underpaid. It screamed out for a technical solution that produced better results faster. Unfortunately for Edward Biggs and his family, steam-powered saw mills made it happen.

Handwriting is telling of the personality of the writer. Neat handwriting denotes a neat writer. Untidy handwriting usually means the writer is untidy in their life.
If you dream of seeing neat handwriting and in real life your handwriting is neat, this dream imagery has no surprise meaning for you.
However, if your handwriting in real life is untidy but you see tidy handwriting in your dream, it tells you to improve your handwriting skills.

Individual members of the public may speak for up to 2 minutes, but the Chair will have discretion to vary this requirement where they consider it appropriate. Any member of the public wishing to speak on Item 6 - Community Governance Review of Town and Parish Council Governance, will be allocated 3 minutes to make their representation, subject to the following: · If you attend the meeting with others who wish to speak on the same subject, please nominate one spokesperson to speak. · There should be no repetition of points made earlier by other speakers. Members of the public wishing to speak are required to provide notice of this at least three clear working days in advance of the meeting and should include the question with that notice. Minutes: Councillor Ken Edwards, on behalf of Bollington Town Council and Bollington Civic Society, expressed his disappointment that the Community Governance Review report did not recommend the Town Council's proposal that the boundary between Bollington and Rainow be amended to include the settlement at Ingersley Vale within Bollington. He asked that the matter be reviewed as part of the next Cheshire East ward boundary review. Councillor Vic Brown, on behalf of Hulme Walfield and Somerford Booths Parish Council spoke in support of the proposals for Hulme Walfield and Somerford Booths joint parish and stated that the recommendations contained a clear and well justified community case for the retention of the present arrangements at least until the completion of the planned development of around 1000 houses over the next 5-7 years. Councillor Linda Buchanan, on behalf of Shavington-cum-Gresty Parish Council, spoke in support of the recommendations proposed by the community governance review as it reflected the identity of the parish and community. She thanked all those who had been involved in the community governance review for listening to local residents.

Councillor Geoff Bell, Chair of Somerford Parish Council, expressed his council's support for the recommendations of the community governance review. The parish council had had sight of the proposals from Congleton Town Council that the boundary should be reconsidered and were opposed to this as no consultation had been carried out with residents in the parish on these proposals. David McGifford, Chief Officer of Congleton Town Council, expressed the Town Council's view that the Town's boundary should be extended to the new link road, in line with the Local Plan Settlement Boundary and Congleton Link Road Business Plan, and asked that the Council revert back to the proposals in the draft governance consultation plan. Councillor Brian Bath, on behalf of Holmes Chapel Parish Council, stated that the parish council had publicly expressed their shock and dismay on the recommendations of the community governance review. He stated that there had been no discussion or debate on the issues raised. He felt that it was unacceptable that the majority of consultation had been done on-line and had not received formal responses or allowed opportunity for constructive debate with officers from Cheshire East Council. He stated that the boundary of Holmes Chapel should include the adjoining new residential developments. He asked that the Council reject the recommendations and request an independent review of all the facts. |
To consider the recommendations of the Corporate Policy Committee. Additional documents:
Minutes: Consideration was given to the report on the Community Governance Review of Town and Parish Council Governance, which had been considered by the Community Governance Review Sub Committee on 4 April 2022 and the Corporate Policy Committee on 14 April 2022. The recommendations from the Corporate Policy Committee were moved and seconded and, during consideration of the matter, a motion without notice was proposed and seconded:- "That where a speaker has spoken at the Community Governance Review Sub Committee, Corporate Policy Committee or Council in opposition to the proposals in the agenda pack, these be referred back to the Community Governance Review Sub Committee for further consideration." The Mayor adjourned the meeting for five minutes to allow consideration of the matter by the Monitoring Officer. Following the adjournment, the Monitoring Officer confirmed that this was a valid motion to refer the matter to the sub-committee. The Monitoring Officer advised that if the matter was referred back to the Community Governance Review Sub Committee it would have impact on the debate at the Council meeting. The whole review would have to be adjourned as the matter had to be concluded as a whole and not in separate parts. The matter would then have to come back to a future Council meeting and the delay could have consequential impact on things such as council tax, voters' registration and the elections in 2023. The motion without notice was debated and put to the vote and declared lost. An amendment was moved and seconded:- "Congleton Town boundary to revert back to the boundary changes that were proposed in the draft Community Governance Review Plan that was consulted upon in October 2021. The original plan was to extend the Congleton Town Boundary to the new Congleton Link Road which would incorporate the new housing and business development which are natural extensions to the Current town boundary." The amendment was debated and then put to the vote and declared lost. Council then considered the substantive motion to approve the recommendations of the Corporate Policy Committee. RESOLVED: That Council resolve that the recommendations made in the review of Community Governance, contained in Appendices 1, 2 and 3 to the report, will ensure that A. the proposed community governance arrangements reflect the identities and interests of the community in the Borough of Cheshire East; and B. the proposed community governance arrangements are effective and convenient and that Council resolve, by order, to give effect to the recommendations. |

The Integrated Care System arrangements continued to be developed and a number of issues were still to be resolved. It was important for the Council to monitor and review emerging details of governance arrangements, particularly those that related to scrutiny, which would be undertaken by the Adults and Health Committee and the Scrutiny Committee. These arrangements needed to be considered carefully by Members, including those on the Constitution Working Group, and by full Council in order to ensure that the Constitution was updated. This needed to be a responsive process and could not wait until the next annual review of the committee system in July 2023. RESOLVED: That Council 1 establish with NHS Cheshire Clinical Commissioning Group, a Committee under Section 75 of the Health and Care Act 2006 from 1 April 2022, as set out in Section 13 of the report, to oversee and manage the Section 75 Better Care Fund Agreement and Plan. 2 delegate authority to the Executive Director Adults, Health and Integration, in consultation with the Director of Governance and Compliance, to agree and finalise the Terms of Reference of the Section 75 Committee. 3 appoint the Executive Director Adults, Health and Integration (or their nominated representative) to the S75 Committee. 4 delegate authority to making any consequential amendments to the Constitution to the Director of Governance and Compliance. |

FAO launches the idea of City to City Cooperation Mechanism for urban food systems through South-South Cooperation
The mechanism aims at supporting cities in the South to share and promote best practices to strengthen urban food systems. 130 cities have signed up to the Milan Urban Food Policy Pact that sets out key goals for urban food security.
13 October 2016, Rome. FAO launched the idea of a City to City Cooperation Mechanism which aims to support cities in the South, particularly in Africa, to share and promote best practices to strengthen urban food systems and help speed up the implementation of the Milan Urban Food Policy Pact (MUFPP). The launch took place during the first day of the Mayor's Meeting of the Milan Pact held at FAO Headquarters in Rome.
City to City cooperation, especially through south-south and triangular cooperation, is an important way to share good practices, where one city context can readily relate to another. Of the total 130 Pact signatories, a total of 44 are in the South and 20 are African cities. Through sharing best practices cities can quickly adopt and adapt them to their own contexts and make huge strides towards their own food goals.
FAO is offering to play a leading role in the mechanism as a facilitator, helping to connect city demands with cities offering solutions. "Building on a long history of facilitating South-South Cooperation, FAO is encouraging active city to city exchange on the many dimensions of the Pact, including issues as wide-ranging as getting policy frameworks right, to setting up microgardens and reducing food waste," said Katrin Taylor, South-South Cooperation Programme Officer, FAO.
Urban food systems and the Milan Pact
Recent years have seen a historic shift in where the world's communities are living and working. Increasingly, people around the globe are moving to urban areas. By 2050, it is predicted that nearly three-quarters of the world's population will live in towns and cities. This poses huge challenges, particularly for the poorest cities, which are already facing increased urban poverty, and growing levels of food insecurity and malnutrition. Women and the youth are particularly vulnerable. Dedicated actions are needed to develop city region food systems which are resilient, inclusive and sustainable in the long-run. Local governments have a critical role to play.
As a result, during the 2015 World Exposition, the City of Milan launched the Milan Urban Food Policy Pactwith the aim of championing sustainable food systems and promoting healthy diets in cities and their connected rural areas.
However, not all cities are implementing the Milan Urban Food Policy Pact at the same pace. This is the reason why some cities might benefit from other cities experience, knowledge and expertise. "This proposal aims at championing sustainable food systems through city to city cooperation, prioritizing the needs of those cities that face greater challenges to implement the Pact. Every city has something to offer and share, be it from the north or south. " explained Thierry Giordano, Technical expert in decentralized cooperation, Partnership, Advocacy and Capacity Development Division, FAO.
Last September, at the Dakar Forum of Francophone African signatories of the MUFPP, all participating African cities (Abidjan, Brazzaville, Dakar, Douala, N'Djamena, Niamey and Nouakchott) got together to discuss their challenges, successes and expectations. They agreed upon the mechanism and were very keen to further explore opportunities for City to City collaboration among signatories of the Pact, with the support of FAO.
Alternative and cost-effective solutions
South-South and Triangular Cooperation aims at sharing innovative solutions. The exchange can be very cost-effective "FAO is committed to support cities in finding cost-effective ways to collaborate such as through offering in-kind contributions, as host cities can provide accommodation or transportation, resulting in cost reduction of the exchange", stated Taylor. "In-kind contributions do not fully replace financial resources, but they are extremely valuable and demonstrate the commitment of all partners involved", added Taylor.
The cities of Douala (Cameroon) and Dakar (Senegal) participated at the launch of the mechanism. They proposed a good example of an exchange;Dakar offering microgarden, or home gardening, expertiseand Douala seeking support. Their example showed how needs and offers can be matched and that both are willing to provide in-kind contributions to facilitate the cooperation.
Cities from the North were also invited to provide technical expertise and resources to support the collaboration among the cities in the South. As an example, Dakar had previously cooperated with Milan (Italy) to acquire microgarden technical expertise that would eventually share with Douala.
Good practices repository
"There is a need to organize a structured repository of good practices. FAO, given its vast experience and technical expertise, could design and develop a catalogue of food systems good practices and cities willing to share their experiences, and provide the technical assistance in identifying, matching and implementing the good practices", said Guido Santini, Programme Coordinator, Food for the Cities Programme, Plant Production and Protection Division, FAO.
Commitments and Next Steps
Cites at the meeting welcomed the proposal, with Mexico City open to sharing their experience with others, and Luanda and Brazzaville interested in receiving more support.
Further consultations with African cities will result in the identification of two to three City to City cooperation projects to be piloted in 2017, and after which lessons drawn and the programme will be further rolled out.

Šaban Bajramović (April 16, 1936 – June 8, 2008) was a Serbian vocalist and recording artist of Romani ethnicity. He was one of the most internationally critically acclaimed Romani singer-songwriters. Due to his eminent impact on music in Eastern Europe, he was dubbed the "King of Romani music." During his career, which spanned over four decades, he recorded 50 singles and 20 albums, and he is believed to have written 700 songs.
At 19 years he ran away from the army, out of love. As a deserter, he was sentenced to three years prison on the island Goli Otok. He spent his time as a good goalkeeper in the prison football team. Because of his nimbleness and speed, they called him "Black Panther." Soon he forced his way into the prison orchestra that played, among other things, jazz (mostly Louis Armstrong, Frank Sinatra, and sometimes John Coltrane) with Spanish and Mexican pieces.
After Goli Otok, his intensive music career began. He made his first record in 1964, with the recording act Crna mamba (Black Mamba). He continued to produce music with Crna mamba for 20 years. The highlight of their career was their performance for Indira Gandhi in India, where he gained the title "King of Romani music." He also performed to Yugoslav politician Josip Broz Tito.
In the early nineties, he recorded "Đelem, Đelem," which is considered the Romani people's ethnic anthem. At the time, he decided to change his stage presence, starting to wear sunglasses while performing.
Bajramović was a prominent figure in Serbian music presenting Romani music in modern Serbian. Due to his enormous influence, on 12 August 2010, a statue to honor his impact was built. The statue had been vandalized multiple times. Time Magazine polled Bajramović in the top 10 best jazz musicians.
