As the government seemed determined to go ahead with the controversial GAAR, BJP has said adequate safeguards needed to be put in place with regard to the new tax provision which has already created a scare among the foreign investors.
BJP leader Yashwant Sinha alleged that the government had mishandled the GAAR (General Anti-Avoidance Rules), a measure to check tax evasion, which was proposed in the General Budget 2012-13 but was deferred till April next year in the wake of outrage by foreign investors.
Sinha, who heads the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Finance, said his panel had suggested a number of safeguards including making application of GAAR with prospective effect so that the existing agreements are not affected.
"We have mentioned a number of safeguards which must be put in place before you implement GAAR. So, basically I am not opposed to GAAR. But with a number of safeguards which the committee has pointed out, including the accountability of the tax administration," Sinha told PTI.
He alleged that GAAR, in its present form, was a "scary" provision for foreign investors like the retrospective amendment to tax laws and had the potential of pushing away the foreign investors.
The Standing Committee in its recommendations on the Direct Taxes Code (DTC) Bill submitted on March 9 to Parliament had highlighted the concerns among the investors over GAAR and underlined the need for steps to address these.
It had made a slew of recommendations to simplify the proposed rules.
"Uncertainties with regard to applicability of tax treaty provisions should be removed so that India's credibility as a reliable treaty partner is not affected," it had underlined.
The Standing Committee had suggested that the provisions to deter tax avoidance should not end up penalising tax-payers who have genuine reasons for entering into a bonafide transaction.
"In the Committee's view, the onus should rest on the tax authority invoking GAAR and this should not be shifted to the taxpayer," the Committee had said.
The Committee had also referred to the clause in the GAAR that the orders of the Commissioner invoking GAAR provisions will be subject to approval of Dispute Resolution Panel (DRP) which is a collegium of three Commissioners of Income Tax.
Not happy with this, the Committee observed, "Since this is a purely departmental body, it will be fair and just if the review is done by a more independent body."
It said DRP should give ample opportunity to the assessee to present his case and the Assessing Officer should record his reasons in writing before passing the order invoking GAAR.
Further, the DRP should be headed by a Chief Commissioner of Income Tax and two other Members who will be independent technical persons, the Committee had said.
It also suggested that a threshold limit for specific amount of tax may be prescribed for application of GAAR, which may be reviewed with experience.
While pointing to these recommendations, Sinha said, "Clearly under international law, a bilateral treaty is superior to your domestic laws and that is why your domestic laws are passed or amended to suit international commitments. So, if there is a treaty, you cannot say that you undo the treaty provisions, through a domestic legislation."
Finance Ministry had last month issued draft guidelines on GAAR and invited stakeholders comment on the same.
Subsequently, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, who currently holds the Finance portfolio, on July 13 set up an expert committee to prepare fresh norms on the controversial tax provision to bring "greater clarity". The committee would submit its report by September 30.

Because of this, I have decided to take a further two weeks off of blogging. I think this will help refresh me, and will give me time to come up with new ideas and to refine the ones I already have. I realise three weeks is a pretty long time, and I would probably have just made it two, but I am going away for a week soon without internet.
Other updates:
- The Retribution of Mara Dyer has still not arrived which is making me increasingly frustrated considering I preordered it and the longer it takes the more chance there is that I am going to see a spoiler.
- I am officially finished high school as of last Tuesday, when I had my final exam, so I am free! (Another reason why this blogging rut is so frustrating - I seriously have all the time in the world right now).
I apologise that I am going to be inactive in terms of posting for the next little while, but I hope that you can understand my reasons, and hopefully I will be better at blogging when I return!

Take all the time you need, Sabrina!! My 2 months hiatus (due to final exams as well) definitely refreshed me. I'm really upset you haven't gotten your RoMD pre-order, what the hell?ReplyDelete
I am in the exact situation as you right now. So happy you finished your exams! I have all the time in the world but I end up being too lazy to write posts or read books. Weird huh.
Looking forward to your return, wish you well lovely :DReplies
Thanks Kelly! I appreciate the support :) I'm glad to hear that taking a break works! Yeah, I'm very upset about it too. I'll blame Australia Post for being so slow.Delete
Me too! It's a great feeling. It is weird not having anything to do, yet being lazy.
Thanks again! x
Don't worry Sabrina! It's quite normal to feel that way, take all the time you need =) Oh, and congrats on being done with your exams ;)ReplyDelete
Also, this is why I hate pre-ordering so much. Most of the time (the 99%) the book doesn't arrive on time and the fear of being spoiled is real. I do love the Internet, but it is a dark place sometimes -__-
I hope your time off blogging do you good ^^
Ohh, take some time off Sabrina, but I'm a new follower of yours and I REALLY like your blog :)ReplyDelete
I'm having a hard time blogging myself, It takes a toll on me, I'm also participating in NaNoWriMo and starting school soon (Yes, I start in December, long story..)
Hope you did great on your exams! Congrats on getting them over with. <3
It's such a familiar feeling, not being happy with my posts and ending up procrastinating happens to me a lot.ReplyDelete
Take the time off you need, you deserve it, and otherwise you'll probably just be frustrated with everything you blog. And enjoy your week away :)
Still no Retribution? Gosh, you must me so annoyed. It's worth the wait!
Congrats on finishing high school!!! How does it feel?

College college students are among the prime groups that are identified to be keen on traveling and typically, winter holidays are the perfect vacation time for them, and so they at all times search for locations to visit for that long trip. Just a few months of researching the commerce could make a big distinction in your eventual success like a work from home travel agent. He takes incredible photos around the world and he is all the time fast to answer to a travel question. A strong travel season also eased the affect of the weakening yuan, which has in current months caused heavy foreign exchange losses for Air China and its rivals who have been aggressively increasing their fleets using massive-scale U.S. greenback borrowing.
There are many factors that ought to be taken into consideration, as an illustration, if you're contemplating taking a visit to the Caribbean, then realizing when hurricane season strikes is an especially important element. Effectively, let's talk about these areas where these software for travel agents actually helps corporations. The original order barred travelers from the seven nations from entering for ninety days and all refugees for 120 days.

Latest News
Orgasms can improve your health
I know that when we talk about sex, many persons have different opinions about its necessity outside of procreation. The fact is that while the sexual act is necessary to procreate, that's not the only, or dare I say it, the most important function that this activity has. Before I get into the other necessary functions of sex, let me first take a look at the various stages that the body goes through when we have sex.
The sexual response cycle
The sexual cycle starts with excitement or arousal which is when the body starts to prepare for intercourse. During this stage foreplay is essential to get the blood flowing to the various organs and to put the body in the right mood. The excitement phase leads to the plateau phase where the body is aroused and heart and breathing rates are elevated and so is the blood pressure. During this phase the skin is extra sensitive and the erogenous zones (lips, nipples, genitals, neck, etc.) are even more so. It's during the plateau phase that intercourse happens and the genitals are stimulated to create friction that will lead to orgasm. For some persons one orgasm is enough, but some persons are multi-orgasmic and may require further stimulation and orgasms to be satiated.
I started off talking about orgasms, so let's get back to it. There are many persons who have difficulties achieving orgasm and the reasons are variable. But having an orgasm a day can actually improve your overall health and even your quality of life.
Orgasms are your body's built stress reliever. When someone orgasms the hormone oxytocin is released from nerve cells in the hypothalamus (a region of the brain) into the bloodstream. This hormone is also known as the 'feel good hormone' and it helps to stimulate feelings of warmth and relaxation.
More frequent orgasms might make it harder for your partner to cheat. The hormone oxytocin is also known as the 'love hormone' and studies have shown that its frequent release strengthens the bond between a couple and makes them less likely to go outside of the relationship for their sexual pleasure.
With the fast paced, busy life that most of us lead, sometimes it's hard to settle down and get a good night's rest. Having an orgasm before you go to sleep is a great way to fall asleep and improve the overall quality of your rest.
Pain relief
The magical chemicals (oxytocin, endorphins) released in the brain during orgasms are excellent pain relievers. Women who orgasm during child birth report better management of pain. Even women who orgasm during her menstrual cycle have less discomfort.
Having frequent orgasms will increase the production of 'killer' cells called leukocytes which are essential in helping the body fight off infection.
Orgasms feel really good and they are good for you, so I didn't think I needed to give too many reasons why you should try to have at least one a day. Think of it like taking your vitamins. After all, the benefits speak for themselves. Remember also that even though it's great to share the experience with someone, there is nothing stopping you from enjoying orgasms solo. Have fun and stay sexy.

Dear Dr Sexy-Ann,
I masturbate at least once per day. I cannot sleep at nights until I have had an orgasm. When I am with my boyfriend, I can't wait for him to get off me so I can please myself. My friends say that I am addicted to masturbation. Could that be it? My boyfriend cannot please me that way I can. What should I do?
Karen, Red Hills
Dear Karen,
No you are not addicted to masturbating. It feels good and it's OK to like it. What you should do to enjoy sex with your boyfriend more, is to share this experience with him. Help him to understand what you like so he can please you more. But don't worry about masturbating too much. As long as you can function and still take care of your regular responsibilities, you are fine.
Good luck,
Dr Sexy-Ann

The ratio of the hour and minute hand lengths is GR. The centre of the small seconds is placed at GR distance between dial-centre and 6 o'clock marker. Then the date pointer centre is GR relative to the small seconds centre. However, the power reserve pointer centre is very close, but not perfect GR to the small seconds centre.
If I may be so bold as to 'correct' JD's design to perfect GR (left hand pic) you can see the design no longer works because of other influences; the text and the balance of spaces left on the dial in particular. One can also try a different size or further or closer position but still on the GR basis; and it doesn't work. It also highlights how useful it is to understand a design through trying to change it.
If Janek didn't knowingly use GR, then the positioning he chose is an amazing testament to his design feel. Of course there is more to this watch than the proportions of the subdials and their location - compare what Vacheron Constantin did with the same pointer centres in their RDM...... Ughh.
And finally, as the flat catalogue shots of JLC are useless, let's leave you with a proper impression of this watch.
And don't forget your Homework Assignment:. Try and find the golden ratios in any Magsy design.

Done with Kuala Lumpur City Gallery, we walked a little bit further around the surrounding and accidentally found Kuala Lumpur Textile Museum, a place that wasn't listed on our itinerary in the first place. But well since we still got quite much time and the admission fee is free, we decided to enter the museum anyway. The museum was about Malaysia's traditional textile and the story of the making process described with artistic displays, documentary videos, and digital stories. I think every country supposed to do this, a simple idea yet supported by a great execution.
Then we moved to our next destination, Central Market. For us, Central Market was quite reachable on foot from Kuala Lumpur Textile Museum. Once you walk and notice a light blue building from a distance you can be sure that you have found Central Market. The market is neat and air conditioned and sell various souvenirs in a cheap price. Just beside Central Market, there is also a market called Kasturi Walk. There you could find various kind of Malaysia street snack, yum yum!
We loveee to try food! And Malaysia possess the best diverse culinary world because the diversity in its society's ethnic. It feels like I want to jump into every restaurant I found! We tried Restoran Yusoof dan Zakhir just outside Central Market. And that was bread with curry sauce, beef masala, and of course teh tarik. For me, it's easy to feel full once I consume this kind of food. Even though I like spicy and lighter menus better, but this one is a must try!
China Town is within walking distance from Central Market so we directly go to China Town once finished with our food at Restoran Yusoof dan Zakhir. It sells cheap souvenirs & goodies, but the best is the street food! When I walked along China Town, I saw a lot of tourist enjoyed their meal and beer along the restaurant at China Town's street. And we tried this Portuguese Grill Fish booth which catch our attention. We ordered Portuguese Grilled Clam and it tastes like heaven I can't get enough of it! :'-)
We closed our day at Kuala Lumpur City Centre gazing at Petronas Tower which shine so bright. At Kuala Lumpur City Centre, you could also find a mall called Suria. We did a little window shopping there, then have a quick rest just outside the mall right at the park which have a magnificent fountain. It's easy to fall in love with a city even when it is your first time visiting, isn't it?

Slash-and-burn is an agricultural technique that involves the cutting and burning of plants in forests or woodlands to create fields. It is subsistence agriculture that typically uses little technology. It is typically key in shifting cultivation agriculture, and in transhumance livestock herding.[1]
Old terms for slash-and-burn in English include assarting, swidden, and fire-fallow cultivation. Today the term slash-and-burn is mainly associated with tropical rain forests. Slash-and-burn is used by between 200 and 500 million people worldwide.[2][3] In 2004 it was estimated that, in Brazil alone, 500,000 small farmers cleared an average of one hectare of forest per year each.[clarification needed] The technique is not sustainable in large populations, because without the trees, the soil quality becomes too poor to support crops. The farmers would have to move on to virgin forest and repeat the process. Methods such as Inga alley farming have been proposed as alternatives to this ecological destruction.[4]
35% of the farming land in the Murray Darling Basin area was cleared using 'Slash and Burn.'
Historically, slash-and-burn cultivation has been practiced throughout much of the world, in grasslands as well as woodlands.
During the Neolithic Revolution, which included agricultural advancements, groups of hunter-gatherers domesticated various plants and animals, permitting them to settle down and practice agriculture, which provides more nutrition per hectare than hunting and gathering. This happened in the river valleys of Egypt and Mesopotamia. Due to this decrease in food from hunting, as human populations increased, agriculture became more important. Some groups could easily plant their crops in open fields along river valleys, but others had forests blocking their farming land.
In this context, humans used slash-and-burn agriculture to clear more land to make it suitable for plants and animals. Thus, since Neolithic times, slash-and-burn techniques have been widely used for converting forests into crop fields and pasture.[5] Fire was used before the Neolithic as well, and by hunter-gatherers up to present times. Clearings created by fire were made for many reasons, such as to draw game animals and to promote certain kinds of edible plants such as berries.
Slash-and-burn fields are typically used and "owned" by a family until the soil is exhausted. At this point the "ownership" rights are abandoned, the family clears a new field, and trees and shrubs are permitted to grow on the former field. After a few decades, another family or clan may then use the land and claim usufructuary rights. In such a system there is typically no market in farmland, so land is not bought or sold in the open market and land rights are "traditional." In slash-and-burn agriculture, forests are typically cut months before a dry season. The "slash" is permitted to dry, and then burned in the following dry season. The resulting ash fertilizes the soil and the burned field is then planted at the beginning of the next rainy season with crops such as upland rice, maize, cassava, or other staples. Most of this work is typically done by hand, using such basic tools as machetes, axes, hoes, and makeshift shovels.
Large families or clans wandering in the lush woodlands long continued to be the most common form of life through human history. Axes to fell trees and sickles for harvesting grain were the only tools people might bring with them. All other tools were made from materials they found at the site, such as fire stakes of birch, long rods (vanko), and harrows made of spruce tops. The extended family conquered the lush virgin forest, burned and cultivated their carefully selected swidden plots, sowed one or more crops, and then proceeded on to forests that had been noted in their wanderings. In the temperate zone the forest regenerated in the course of a lifetime. So swidden was repeated several times in the same area over the years. But in the tropics the forest floor gradually depleted. It was not only in the moors, as in Northern Europe, but also in the steppe, savannah, prairie, pampas and barren desert in tropical areas where shifting cultivation is the oldest type of farming (Clark 1952 91-107).[6]
Historical references
In Southern Europe Mediterranean climates, originally forested from times immemorial, there were open evergreen deciduous and pine forests. After slash and burn agriculture practice began this type of forest had less capacity for regeneration than the forest north of the Alps.
In Northern Europe, there was usually only one crop harvested before grass growth took over, while in the south, suitable fall was used for several years and the soil was quickly exhausted. Slash and burn shifting cultivation therefore ceased much earlier in the south than the north. Most of the forests in the Mediterranean region had disappeared by classical times. The classical authors wrote about the great forests (Semple 1931 261-296).[7]
Homer writes of wooded Samothrace, Zacynthos, Sicily and other wooded land.[8] The authors give us the general impression that the Mediterranean countries had more forest than now, but that it had already lost much forest, and that it was left there in the mountains (Darby 1956 186).[9]
It is clear that Europe remained wooded, and not only in the north. However, during the Roman Iron Age and early Viking Age, forest areas drastically reduced in Northern Europe, and settlements were regularly moved. There is no good explanation for this mobility, and the transition to stable settlements from the late Viking period, as well as the transition from shifting cultivation to stationary use of arable land. At the same time plows appears as a new group of implements were found both in graves and in depots. It can be confirmed that early agricultural people preferred forest of good quality in the hillside with good drainage, and traces of cattle quarters are evident here.
The Migration Period in Europe after the Roman Empire and immediately before the Viking Age suggests that it was still more profitable for the peoples of Central Europe to move on to new forests after the best parcels were exhausted than to wait for the new forest to grow up. Therefore, the peoples of the temperate zone in Europe slash and burners, remained for as long as the forests permitted. This exploitation of forests explains this rapid and elaborate move. The forest could not tolerate this in the long run; it first ended in the Mediterranean. The forest here did not have the same vitality as the powerful coniferous forest in Central Europe. Deforestation was partly caused by burning for pasture fields. Missing timber delivery led to higher prices and more stone constructions in the Roman Empire (Stewart 1956 123).[10]
The forest also decreased gradually northwards in Europe, but in the Nordic countries it has survived. The clans in pre-Roman Italy seemed to be living in temporary locations rather than established cities. They cultivated small patches of land, guarded their sheep and their cattle, traded with foreign merchants, and at times fought with one another: etruscans, umbriere, ligurianere, sabinere, Latinos, campaniere, apulianere, faliscanere, and samniter, just to mention a few. These Italic ethnic groups developed identities as settlers and warriors ca. 900 BC. They built forts in the mountains, today a subject of much investigation. The forest has hidden them for a long time, but eventually they will provide information about the people who built and used these buildings. The ruin of a large samnittisk temple and theater at Pietrabbondante is under investigation. These cultural relics have slumbered in the shadow of the glorious history of the Roman Empire.
The Greek explorer and merchant Pytheas of Marseilles made a voyage to Northern Europe ca. 330 BC. Part of his itinerary is kept at Polybios, Pliny and Strabo. Pytheas had visited Thule, which lay a six-day voyage north of Britain.
There "the barbarians showed us the place where the sun does not go to sleep. It happened because there the night was very short -- in some places two, in others three hours -- so that the sun shortly after its fall soon went up again." He says that Thule was a fertile land, "rich in fruits that were ripe only until late in the year, and the people there used to prepare a drink of honey. And they threshed the grain in large houses, because of the cloudy weather and frequent rain. In the spring they drove the cattle up into the mountain pastures and stayed there all summer." This description may fit well on the West-Norwegian conditions. Here is an instance of both dairy farming and drying/threshing in a building.
In Italy, shifting cultivation was a thing of the past at the birth of Christ. Tacitus describes it as the strange cultivation methods he had experienced among the Germans, whom he knew well from his stay with them. Rome was entirely dependent on shifting cultivation by the barbarians to survive and maintain "Pax Romana", but when the supply from the colonies "trans alpina" failed, the Roman Empire collapsed.
Tacitus writes in 98 AD about the Germans: fields are proportionate to the participating growers, but they share their crops with each other by reputation. Distribution is easy because there is great access to land. They change soil every year, and mark some off to spare, for they seek not a strenuous job in cramming this fertile and vast land even greater ydelser, by planting apple orchards, cultivated spesial beds or watering gardens; grain is the only thing they insist that the ground will provide. The original text reads,[11] "agri pro numero cultorum ad universis vicinis occupantur, quos mox inter se secundum dignationem partientur, facilitate partiendi camporum spatial praestant, arva per annos mutant, et superest ager, nec enim cum ubertate et amplitudine soli labore contendunt, ut pomaria conserant et prata separent et hortos rigent, sola terrae seges imperatur." Tacitus discusses the shifting cultivation.[12][13]
Strabo (63 BC - about 20 AD) also writes about sveberne in Geographicon VII, 1, 3. Common to all the people in this area is that they can easily change residence because of their sordid way of life; that they do not grow any fields and do not collect property, but live in temporary huts. They get their nourishment from their livestock for the most part, and like nomads, they pack all their goods in wagons and go on to wherever they want. Horazius writes in 17 BC (Carmen säculare, 3, 24, 9 ff .) about the people of Macedonia. The proud Getae also live happily, growing free food and cereal for themselves on land that they do not want to cultivate for more than a year, "vivunt et rigidi Getae, immetata quibus iugera liberal fruges et Cererem freunt, nec cultura placet longior annua." Several classical writers have descriptions of shifting cultivation people. Many peoples' various shifting cultivations characterized the migration Period in Europe. The exploitation of forests demanded constant displacement, and large areas were deforested.
Locations of the tribes described by Jordanes in Norway, contemporary with, and some possibly ruled by Rodulf. Jordanes was of Gothic descent and ended up as a monk in Italy. In his work De origine actibusque Getarum (The Origin and Deeds of the Getae/Goths[14]),[15] the Gothic origins and achievements, the author of 550 AD provides information on the big island Scandza, which the Goths come from. He expects that of the tribes who live here, some are adogit living far north with 40 days of the midnight sun. After adogit come screrefennae and suehans who also live in the north. Screrefennae moved a lot and did not bring to the field crops, but made their living by hunting and collecting bird eggs. Suehans was a seminomadic tribe that had good horses like Thüringians and ran fur hunting to sell the skins. It was too far north to grow grain. Prokopios, ca. 550 AD, also describes a primitive hunter people he calls skrithifinoi. These pitiful creatures had neither wine nor corn, for they did not grow any crops. "Both men and women engaged incessantly just in hunting the rich forests and mountains, which gave them an endless supply of game and wild animals." Screrefennae and skrithifinoi is well Sami who often have names such as; skridfinner, which is probably a later form, derived from skrithibinoi or some similar spelling. The two old terms, screrefennae and skrithifinoi, are probably origins in the sense of neither ski nor finn. Furthermore, in Jordanes' ethnographic description of Scandza are several tribes, and among these are finnaithae "who was always ready for battle" Mixi evagre and otingis that should have lived like wild beasts in mountain caves, "further from them" lived osthrogoth, raumariciae, ragnaricii, finnie, vinoviloth and suetidi that would last prouder than other people.
The instance of fire in North East Sweden changed as the agriculture changed. Historically the Sami people did not burn the land as it destroyed the lichen required by their reindeer. The new farmers frequently used slash and burn farming. During the nineteenth century the Swedish timber industry moved north where they would clear the land of trees but leave the waste as fire risk behind. Fires around the 1870s were frequent.[16] There was a fire in Norrland in 1851 and then every ten years in 1868, 1878 and teo towns were lost in 1888.[17]
Modern Western world
Slash-and-burn could be distinctly defined as the large-scale deforestation of acres of forests for agricultural usage. The ashes that come from the trees would also help farmers, for it provides nutrients for farming.[18]
In regions which industrialized, including Europe and North America, the practice was abandoned over the past few centuries as market agriculture was introduced, and land came to be owned. For example, slash-and-burn agriculture was initially practiced by European pioneers in North America like Daniel Boone and his family who cleared land in the Appalachian Mountains in the late 18th and early 19th Centuries.[19] However, the land of such slash-and-burn farmers was eventually taken over by modern systems of land tenure which focus on the long-term improvement of farmland, and discourage the older subsistence practices associated with slash-and-burn agriculture.
Preserving the northern European heritage
Telkkämäki Nature Reserve (Kaavi, Finland) is a heritage farm portraying the old slash-and-burn heritage. At Telkkämäki farm, the visitor can see how people lived and farmed in the past, when the slash-and-burn agriculture was practiced in the North Savonian region in Eastern Finland from the 15th century. Some areas of Telkkämäki Nature Reserve are burnt annually.[20] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0S7LTbJ-ErQ
South Asia
Tribal groups in the northeastern states of India like Arunachal Pradesh, Meghalaya, Mizoram and Nagaland, and also in the districts of Bangladesh like Rangamati, Khagrachari, Bandarban and Sylhet refer to slash and burn agriculture as "Jhum" or "Jhoom cultivation". This system involves clearing a piece of land by setting fire or clear felling and using the area for growing crops of agricultural importance such as upland rice, vegetables or fruits. After a few cycles, the land loses fertility and a new area is chosen. Jhum cultivation is most practiced on the slopes of hills in thickly forested landscapes. The cultivators cut the treetops to allow sunlight to reach the land. They burn all the trees and grasses for clean and fresh soil. It is believed that this helps to fertilize the land, but can leave it vulnerable to erosion. Later they make a hole with a heavy wood or local chopper in chakma Tāgala after that seeds of different crops[21] like local/traditional sticky rice,maize,eggplant,cucumber etc. are planted. Plants on the slopes survive the rainy season floods. Looking at all the effects, the government of Mizoram has launched a policy to end Jhum cultivation in the state.[22]
Slash-and-burn is typically a type of subsistence agriculture, and not focused by the need to sell crops in world markets. Rather, planting decisions are made in the context of needs of the family or clan for the coming year. [23]
Ecological implications
|Template:Image array
Although a solution for overpopulated tropical countries where subsistence agriculture may be the traditional method of sustaining many families, the consequences of slash-and-burn techniques for ecosystems are almost always destructive.[24] This happens particularly as population densities increase, and as a result farming becomes more intensively practiced. This is because as demand for more land increases, the fallow period by necessity declines. The principal vulnerability is the nutrient-poor soil, pervasive in most tropical forests. When biomass is extracted even for one harvest of wood or charcoal, the residual soil value is heavily diminished for further growth of any type of vegetation. Sometimes there are several cycles of slash-and-burn within a few years time span; for example in eastern Madagascar the following scenario occurs commonly. The first wave might be cutting of all trees for wood use. A few years later, saplings are harvested to make charcoal, and within the next year the plot is burned to create a quick flush of nutrients for grass to feed the family zebu cattle. If adjacent plots are treated in a similar fashion, large-scale erosion will usually ensue, since there are no roots or temporary water storage in nearby canopies to arrest the surface runoff. Thus, any small remaining amounts of nutrients are washed away. The area is an example of desertification, and no further growth of any type may arise for generations.
The ecological ramifications of the above scenario are further magnified, because tropical forests are habitats for extremely biologically diverse ecosystems, typically containing large numbers of endemic and endangered species. Therefore, the role of slash-and-burn is significant in the current Holocene extinction.
Slash-and-char is an alternative that alleviates some of the negative ecological implications of traditional slash-and-burn techniques.

David S. Bernstein has an interesting article in the Phoenix that suggests Gov. Romney is "skipping the south:"
But if the populist conservatives are a tough crowd for Romney, they're nothing compared with the Christian conservatives. After courting them doggedly without success throughout the 2008 cycle, it appears that, in 2012, Romney is going to try to win without them. That, in effect, means skipping the South.
You can hardly blame him. Of the 28 caucuses and primaries Romney competed in two years ago, he finished worse than second in only six — which also happened to be six of the seven Southern states in which he ran. (He managed to finish second in Florida, a less culturally Southern state that he had hoped to win.)
It hardly seems possible to win the GOP nomination without the South, which holds tremendous weight in the process. Forty percent of the pledged delegates to the 2012 Republican convention will come from 13 Southern states (the 11 seceding "Dixie" states, plus Kentucky and Oklahoma).
"I just can't fathom the South not playing a role in picking the GOP nominee," says LaRaja, adding that, if Romney were to win without the South, "It would be a phenomenal strategic success story."
And yet, that seems to be the strategy. He has distanced himself in more ways than just retreating from the social issues critical to success with Southern Republicans.
Notably, Romney's PAC has started ignoring Southern pols. It contributed to not a single politician in Florida or Georgia last year, where it showered more than $30,000 over the previous four years. And in the crucial early-primary state of South Carolina, where Romney's PAC had doled out tens of thousands by 2006, it has written just one check in this cycle — to potential presidential foe Senator Jim DeMint.
As of this writing, Romney's full book-tour schedule was not available; its itinerary may be telling. But perhaps most revealing is Romney's decision not to attend this year's Southern Republican Leadership Conference (SRLC) in April in New Orleans. Every other Republican with even a whiff of presidential aspirations will speak there — and it was at the 2006 SRLC that Romney made his first splash by besting McCain and others in a straw poll. (He finished second to then-senator Bill Frist of Tennessee, who had the home-field advantage for the Memphis event.)
Read the whole Phoenix article here.
Interestingly, Gov. Romney's spokesman, Eric Fehrnstrom responded:
"The reason Mitt Romney is not attending the SRLC is because of conflicts with his book tour. The book, No Apology: The Case for American Greatness, comes out March 2 and he's on the road promoting it the entire month of March and half of April. During the SRLC, he'll be in Philadelphia (World Affairs Council speech), New Hampshire (St. Anselm's Institute of Politics speech and remarks to Politics and Eggs breakfast), Boston (Ford Hall Forum speech) and Minneapolis (book signing, Freedom Foundation speech)."
Bernstein believes this reasoning further proves his point.
1. It's way to early to speak of any primary strategies — I have no idea what goes into deciding where to go when. But I've heard many many people who are disappointed in what might be the GOP line-up for 2012 and are looking to Gov. Romney to save them from the southern-speaking Huckabees of politics.
2. I know many of you are disappointed that he won't be at the SRLC. However, it's more important than ever for southerners to get together and try — at least to the degree we can — to show him our support. In fact, we at EFM believe he is the perfect fit for the south. As we've said many times before, he's the Yankee Governor, with Southern Values — perfectly embodying the things that we care about down here.
So, let's use the SRLC to show him that we support him. Are there any Southern EFM readers who'd like to participate? E-mail me!

Planning Commission says no to bar variance
Planning Commission members voted this week to adhere to county zoning laws, turning down a request for a variance that would have allowed a bar within 1,000 feet of a church.
Bar owner Jesse Wilson sought the zoning exception for a new business, J's Bar and Lounge, that he wanted to open at 1870 Old Highway 61 North. Wilson said in this variance application that the business would operate Monday through Saturday from 2 p.m. to 4 a.m. and employ five to seven people. The site is 575 feet south of Antioch Church.
"We want the county to grow, (but) this does not seem to be the place for this business," commissioner Jannie Bonds said.
{paypalaccess}Read more{/paypalaccess}
A number of people who live or work close to the proposed bar spoke out against it during a hearing Tuesday, March 27.
One woman said she operates a nonprofit for battered women that is next to the site. She said she didn't "need that negativity" around what is intended to be a safe haven.
Carol "Doll" Gill said her home backs up to the property. She said she likes to sit outside on her back patio in the afternoon.
"I'm going to hear that noise," she said, adding that the neighborhood had been in that location for many years.
Another neighborhood resident, Jack Graves, asked planning commissioners not to "go around the law."
Tunica mayor Chuck Cariker agreed. The proposed bar is just outside the corporate limits of the town.
"The laws were put into place to protect the church," Cariker said. Allowing variances has a domino effect that ultimately undermines the original laws, he added.
Commission chairman Willie Shields and planning director Charles Finkley favored a compromise that would have granted the variance for a three-month period, with a review to follow. The Planning Commission would also have stipulated the addition of sound proofing to the building and limited the hours of operation from 6 p.m. to midnight.
Wilson sought to alleviate concerns, saying at the hearing that he would have security inside and outside the establishment to keep patrons safe and to monitor parking areas.
But ultimately, those safeguards weren't enough.
"It's unfair to upset those who have lived there a long time," Bonds said.
Commissioner Justin Cariker agreed, saying he didn't want to "throw laws out the window."
Two of the five commissioners were absent from this week's meeting, Carolyn Canada and Latony Burks.
In other business, the Planning Commission approved a variance on rear yard setbacks for Pleasant Ridge M.B. Church and a conditional use permit for a towing and storage facility in the resort area.

In the first game of the Marlins series it was pretty clear Leyland didn't care about the W-L result. In fact, he sort-of went with the program I outlined here, using lots of pitchers and platooning the non-starters. It's not at all clear that he wasn't trying to win the last two games - though he didn't put everything on the line to do so. As a result, they wound up only one game in front of the red hot 2nd place Indians, who ended their season running away from the 3rd place Royals with 10 straight wins.
I ended my August wrap-up saying, "Scoring is down a bit, and that might be a concern going forward." Really, I had no idea. Graph 1 shows how scoring has declined over the season. The purple line is season average to date. The yellow line is the average of the last 34 games.
From game 34 through game 62, the 34 game average stayed in the relatively narrow range of 5.26 to 5.68 runs per game [RPG]. Then, through game 80, there was a steep decline to 4.24 RPG. After that came a climb to a double peak culminating in the season high of 5.74 RPG at game 115. Since then, the bumpy slide into the slough of despond, and the season ending 4.35 RPG.
Season average to date [purple line] is a lot less volatile, but shows a similar pattern. After a double bottom at 4.93 RPG at games 71 and 81, the high for the 2nd half of the season came at 5.18 RPG in game 106. But from there was a slide to end the season at 4.91 RPG, the lowest reading since May 1st.
Despite having a stretch where they won 11 of 15 games, September was a very poor month for the Tigers, ending with a 13-13 record. Three of those 13 wins came against the Royals, and 1 against the Red Sox. The rest were against the hapless White Sox, Twins and Mariners.
Two defects have characterized the Tigers play for most of the season: ineffective relief pitching, and an inability to score runs late in games - and, as it turns out, late in the season, too. Those problems were mitigated in August, but came home again in September. In August, the Tigers outscored the opposition by 150 to 113. In September, with 4 fewer games, it was 97 to 94. Four fewer games, 57 fewer runs. RPG for the month took a nose dive from 5.0 to 3.73. Opponents RPG only slipped slightly from 3.77 to 3.62. The Tigers got 31% of their September runs after inning 6, which is not awful, but down from August's 35%. They gave up 41.5% of their runs after inning 6, which is awful, and up from August's excellent 26.5%. From the 6th inning on, the Tigers have been outscored 53 to 34 in September. Clearly, starting pitching is not the problem.
Seven of their 13 September losses were by 1 run. In those 7 games, the opponents averaged 2.4 RPG. Anemic late scoring and inept relief pitching are death in close games. In their 13 September wins, the Tigers averaged 5.9 runs; in the loses, 1.54. They were shut out an astounding 4 times in September, and 12 for the season. The 2012 Tigers were shut out twice. This year's Tigers scored 796 runs, second only to Boston's 853. I just discovered that the Tigers 3-0 win over the Red Sox on labor day was the 11th time the Sox were shut out this year. There is no way to make sense of this.
Graph 2 shows runs scored per inning in September. I've used a 30 run vertical axis all season, since the Tigers have topped 25 for a given inning a few times, starting with 28 in inning 4 in April.
Graph 3 shows runs allowed in September.
Graph 4 shows Tigers runs per game in September.
The blue line is runs for the game, yellow line is 5 game average, green line is season average to date
Last year, after the 4 day lay off before the world series, the Tigers came out flat and got swept away by the Giants. Historically, these lay-offs have not been kind to the resting team, while their opponents keep fighting it out. This year, the Tigers ended the season on such a low note that a lay-off can't possibly do any harm.
The A's strategy in the playoffs should be to run up the pitch count for Tiger's starters and dig into the bull pen as quickly as possible. That ought to get them a ticket to the next round.
The first 150 games

Apache Gaze features an Apache man getting hit with strong Arizona sun. His face casts strong shadows: notice how one side is lit and has strong highlights on his nose, with the other side darkened by the lack of direct light. His hair is tussled by a light breeze, the only relief from the Arizona sun on a hot Summer's day. I composed Apache Gaze to have visual drama though color. The contrast between the red against the green with the blue of the shirt and background, draws the viewer in and captures interest. The darkness of the man's hair adds another layer of dimensionality.

Sarangani is a province of the Philippines located in the SOCCSKSARGENregion. Its capital is Alabel. With a 230 kilometres (140 mi) coastline along the Sarangani Bay and Celebes Sea, the province is at the southernmost tip of Mindanao Island, and borders South Cotabato and Davao del Sur to the north, and Davao Occidental to the east.
Sarangani is part of the South Cotabato-Sultan Kudarat-Sarangani-Gen. Santos City (SOCCSKSARGEN) development cluster, and is linked by paved roads to the international airport and harbor of Gen. Santos City.
The province is divided into two parts, separated by the Sarangani Bay andGeneral Santos City, and it used to be part of South Cotabato until it was made an independent province in 1992.
Map of the Philippines with Sarangani highlighted
The island of Sarangani was named by Ruy López de Villalobos in 1543 as Antonia, in honor of Antonio de Mendoza y Pacheco who commissioned Villalobos expedition to the Philippines. The early inhabitants who first inhabited Sarangani were the indigenous natives, called "MunaTo," a native term for "first people."
In 1942, the Japanese troops occupied Southern Cotabato (now Sarangani). In 1945, Filipino troops of the 6th, 10th, 101st and 102nd Infantry Division of the Philippine Commonwealth Army and 10th Infantry Regiment of the Philippine Constabulary entered and liberated in Southern Cotabato (now Sarangani) and fought against the Japanese Imperial Army forces during the Battle of Cotabato at the end of World War II under the Japanese Occupation.
Before its inception in 1992, Sarangani was part of South Cotabato as the Third District of South Cotabato. The province was created by Republic Act No. 7228 on March 16, 1992, penned by Congressman James L. Chiongbian. His wife, Priscilla L. Chiongbian, was the first Governor of Sarangani. They are known as the Father and Mother of Sarangani Province.
Coconut, corn, rice, banana, mango, durian, rubber, and sugarcane are just some of the major crops now being planted by the Sarangans. Other possibilities lie in a wide range of commercial choices: industrial plantations (mango, abaca, coffee, rubber, and rattan), agro-forestry (high-value crops), light manufacturing and processing facilities, real estate and housing, tourism, beach resorts, hotels and restaurants, recreational facilities, port zone development, milling plants, fruit production, processing of canned fruits and vegetables, production of ornamental plants, furniture, trading, telecommunications, mining, and aquaculture.
Sarangani's favorable investment climate is manifested by the large plantations (mango, banana, pineapple, asparagus), cattle ranches, and commercial fishponds that have been operating in the area, some of which having existed as far back as 40 years.
Businesses locating in the province are assured of stable power and water supply. Electricity comes from the National Power Corporation, and augmented by a 50 mW power plant in Alabel, the province's capital. Water is provided for by sustainable spring development projects.
Sarangani celebrates its foundation anniversary every month of November, named as "MunaTo Festival."
The famous Maitum white water tubing is also located in Sarangani, 1.6 km. of wild water tube ride in Pangi River at barangay New La Union, Maitum Sarangani Province. Pangi River was 2nd Runner Up in 2003's national search for the cleanest river in the Philippines. Here you can also enjoy day-trekking or horseback riding and commune with nature along the way.
Its landmark "Isla Parilla" resort is now an "AA" world-class resort, built within a man-made island.
Sarangani also has, as treasure, its ancient burial jars, discovered by archaeologists from the National Museum in Ayub Cave, Maitum, in 1991 and in 2008, at Sagel Cave, Maitum (now declared by National Historical Institute as a national historical sites). Amid Mindanao's armed conflicts, artifacts found thereat prove settlements of pre-historic civilization in Maitum.

The mission is not to serve good coffee. It's to serve clean drinking water!
This isn't your ordinary coffee shop! Compass Cafe aims to help provide clean drinking water to children in countries like Haiti, Jamaica, Guatemala, and Trinidad. What sparked this amazing idea was little six year old Johanne from Haiti.
She was seen running barefoot for 3 miles along a stony riverbed. She returned home to no bed, no clothes but worse! No water! Compass Cafe' was founded to help little Johanne and thousands like her . When a customer purchases a Missions Blend, the proceeds from every cup goes back to the country where the beans were harvested to provide clean water systems.
In Compass Cafe', You are important! Everyone here enjoys the coffee, cozy seats, atmosphere, friendly baristas, and the declious and different desserts baked fresh everyday by Jodi Bakes. There are also other great tasting non-coffee beverages such as fresh warm apple cider, Milo with whipped cream, hot chocolate, juices also iced & hot tea! I have lived in New York my whole life and my opinion is that Compass Cafe' is the best coffee shop around!
Compass Cafe is located at 142-82 Rockaway Blvd. Jamaica, NY 11436

Black Rock City 2014
For the weeklong Burning Man festival, a temporary city is built in the Black Rock Desert in northwestern Nevada where every year more than 65 000 participants endure extremely harsh living conditions to create an artistic community unique in the world.
They settle on a clearly defined layout organically improved over two decades of adaptation to the growth of its population and ever increasing regulations that govern a private event held on public land.
Caravansery was the 2014 theme
The map The other map The Caravansery map The MOOP map
The Leave No Trace, Self-reliance and Decommodification principles condition the nature of this habitat and demand
a new approach to urban planning and the viability of temporary dwellings.
To survive in style (or not) a scorching sun, destructive gusts of wind
and the omnipresent dust, Burners, forward-looking citizens, come up with solo and communal camps, the fruition of year-long preparations along with sheer improvisation, to create an ephemeral architecture that will vanish leaving deep memories and no trace.

Nice way to create a neighborhood
Monday morning, I was sleeping under the stars on the cot when hail and rain woke me up.
At time, rain was heavy as were the lightnings striking the city.
I wasn't too proud under my canopy surrounded by dozens of metal poles and rebars.
Like everyone else in the city, I spent the morning looking at the puddles slowly invading my living space, walking around in trash bag covered shoes which help trek to the blue rooms.
One of these too rare moments when the city is quiet, still, calm, when the silence is only broken by a remote neighbor calling to share a warm breakfast.
That morning created numerous bonds among burners.

Crack forza horizon 3 pc mega - Free Download
Forza Horizon , Forza. If you want online, support the developers, and have a great experience buy it. I use this to test games and if they are good, I buy them afterwards. Thx for the release but after installing the well and cracked it, the game launches but shut down automatically. First mission where i should ride against Ferrari not work,it s no Ferrari when i come in yellow zone. Somebody have this problem? I cant use my or anything other gamepad in this version, although it Worms in other games.
How can that bei? It works perfectly for me on Windows Enterprise updated to I disabled Xbox Services in the registry. I have a problem: I installed the game correctly but when I launch it, a window appears for like seconds and then it closes and nothing happens: Does anybody have a solution to this? Click the advanced tab then click performance settings. Open forza an see if it works… worked for me when the game would just crash.
Registering universal app … failed! Another user has already installed an uncompressed version of the application. The active user can not replace it with a package version. The conflicting package is named Microsoft. Try a workingaround to disable hardware acceleration in AVG but not working. AFAIK, the legit version also crashes at intro is happening. Unplug any wheel you have first. Download any app from Microsoft store. First mission where i should ride against Ferrari not work , it s no Ferrari when i come in yellow zone.
Seems like the UWP still hard to be cracked. But it has some porting issues: To get 60fps and avoid issues with controls like lags and delay i must put: They have some problems with the porting. Maybe you can try automatic settings with low. The game suffer some glitches if you raise too much the graphical settings respect the fps limit even with automatic settings maybe you have to adjust manually.
Just my two cents hope can be of help to others. I was able to play for a few races, but it crashes almost everytime that I try to save changes when modifying the car, it also crashes randomly when starting a new race at a point that its unplayable and starts to crash more often, very sad since I really liked the game but playing like that is a pain in the butt.

You guys, I am on the newest update of Windows and I am playing it just fine. The trick is to disable real time protection in Windows Defender before you install the game. Windows Defender will block all access and stop the game from working correctly. But it is inside the. When I just start the game, it freezes at the intro scene and then the game closes.
Any1 having the same issue? Does anybody know how to solve it? Near the end of it it say Runtime Error at The file is being used by another application. The game crashes everytime Im trying to save tuning options Well, the changes are applied when I restart the game, but then picture of car is bugged and it also crashes when I try to delete it from my garage.
The game works very well, however I do not have access to the following DLC: Mountain Blizzard and Hoot wheels, all grayed out? How do I do that? Also any virus , still crashes. A problem has occurred with Forza Horizon 3.
Contact your system administrator for repair or reinstallation. The game crash at boot, with new windows 10 update Fine with the old. New crack need from codex.

Carpenter Bees
What are carpenter bees?
Carpenter bees are a solitary species of stinging insect that have six legs and are oval and robust in shape. They are yellow or black in color and may or may not have stripes on their body. Their body is covered in hair, except for the abdomen, which is smooth and hairless.
How are they different from bumble bees and honey bees?
The most obvious difference between the three is that carpenter bees are a solitary species while bumble bees and honey bees nest and work together in large colonies.
Carpenter bees and bumble bees are most often confused with each other because of their similar appearance. However, there are some subtle differences between the two. Bumble bees are completely covered in hair, while carpenter bees have a bare abdomen. Also, male carpenter bees have a yellow face, while female carpenter bees and all bumble bees have black faces.
Honey bees are smaller in size, have a more narrow body shape, and wings that are thinner than that of a carpenter bee. Honey bees have an overall fuzzy appearance and are brown and yellow in color.
Where do carpenter bees nest?
Female carpenter bees create nesting areas by boring holes that are about the width of their bodies into untreated wood. Decks, siding, landscape timbers and wooden lawn furniture are all common targets. The females will then create tunnels and galleries following the grain of the wood, the tunnels can run 10-15 cm or more in length. Along with using the tunnels to lay her eggs in, she will use it to overwinter in.
Should I be worried about carpenter bees stinging?
Female carpenter bees have a stinger but are very docile and will rarely sting. But, if they do sting, an allergic reaction from their venom can occur in some people that may require medical attention. Male carpenter bees do not have a stinger but are very aggressive and will buzz, hoover, and circle around your head to protect their nest.
Will carpenter bees damage my home?
Carpenter bees can cause significant damage to homes and other wooden structures if left unchecked. While females do not build nests together, they may build them in the same piece of wood, eventually sharing galleries as their tunnels meet, increasing the damage. Damage can also occur to your home from woodpeckers that are drawn to carpenter bee nests to eat their eggs. They will peck at the nest entrances helping to weaken the structure even more.
Does Allgood treat carpenter bees?
Yes, Allgood can treat and control carpenter bees. Our professionals are committed to safely and effectively eliminating your problems with carpenter bees and other pests as quickly as possible. For more information about how we can help control carpenter bees contact us today!

I want to go to this conference so bad! Whose coming with me?? We can bring 3 and split the cost!
You should attend this conference, Im the production coordinator (looking for a stage manager..whose interested? Renee..?) 🙂
I totally messed this recipe up today. Im a cooker not a baker. APPARENTLY you cant substitute eggs with applesauce. my bad.
I was completely inspired by this post this morning.
Im ashamed to admit I want these shoes. Im such an uncool human.
So proud that this is my sister in law. Her blog cracks me up.
Well thats all for now. I just submitted a paper and now Im off to plan Richie and I's 6 month anniversary to Cabo (why not, am I right?). Since we have managed to never celebrate any sort of anniversary thus far including during all of our dating years, we decided to cash in on 6 months of marriage.

In addition to debunking some diets, we also advised these hard working athletes how they can best refuel their bodies after an intense workout. The short and sweet answer:
Eat a combination of carbohydrates and protein immediately after exercise to refuel & replenish your body.
This is because carbs are important for replenishing muscle fuel (also known as glycogen, the stored form of carbohydrates in our bodies). And protein provides essential amino acids which are the building blocks for muscle repair and growth during and after training.
Ideally, you want to aim for eating your carb & protein rich snack or meal within 15-60 minutes following activity. Post exercise, your body is like a sponge, ready to absorb nutrients!
For many athletes, you may not have an appetite immediately after working out, so having a liquid meal or snack can be useful strategy to help meet your recovery needs.
You may want to try this smoothie below -- it's one of our favorites, not only because it's packed with nutrition but because it's also absolutely delicious.
Raspberry Banana Powerhouse Smoothie
Packed with antioxidants, heart healthy fat, and a major protein punch, this smoothie will start your day out strong, pick you up when you hit your mid-afternoon slump, or refuel your body for the next time you hop on the bike, hit the pavement, or jump in the water.
½ cup nonfat or low-fat Greek yogurt (regular yogurt is good, too!)
½- 1 cup nonfat or low-fat cow's milk or milk alternative (we prefer soy milk)
½- 1 banana
½- 1 cup frozen raspberries
Splash of orange juice
1 tablespoon ground flax seed
Put all the ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth. Slice the strawberry down the center and place on the rim of a glass. Pour smoothie mixture into the glass and serve immediately.
Note: We encourage you to experiment with the ingredients, so you can achieve the consistency, flavor, and quantity that suits your needs and preferences best!

This is a favorite of mine. I can see all kinds of applications with YouTube. Recently, I viewed some short book reviews. They were fun and inviting, done by librarians. The library where this was happening actually experienced an increase in circulation of some of their older materials. I would love to see something like that added to our Books and Reading site. Anyone have proposal for the New Technology Committee?
I can also see this to draw attention to SRP or the Teens. It can be shared on our Facebook account.
We can even demonstrate certain types of procedures.

The German/Iranian teenager who slaughtered children while shouting Allahu Akbar was undergoing psychiatric treatment.
As I wrote just a few days ago:
"Such barbarous and degenerate acts could only be performed by people whose minds have been twisted by psychotropic drugs."
Already crazed terrorists dropping psychiatric drugs is a truly dreadful combination.
Two different sorts of terrorists.
