upporting development in Masisi thanks to hydroelectric powerApr 26, 2017
In Masisi Territory, in North Kivu Province, the verdant hills stretch as far as the eye can see. It is an agricultural region, known for its cattle-rearing, and for its cheeses, exported throughout the DRC. It is also an isolated area with little in the way of basic infrastructure to improve everyday life for its inhabitants.
Masisi Territory - a region with great agricultural potential.
Since 2011, Masisi and Walikale Territories have benefited from the 'Community Recovery and Restoration of Peace in North Kivu Project', financed by the Republic of Korea with the involvement of the UNDP. By offering economic opportunities to both young people and women in their home areas, the project has strengthened the sense of security and reconciliation in local communities, whilst also combating the drift from the land.
Socio-economic development projects are absolutely essential in order to combat the drift from the land in the Masisi region.
In this context, construction of a micro hydroelectric plant has recently been completed and this will eventually supply more than 40,000 citizens with electricity. This project will reduce community tensions through basic social services and improvements in local communities' means of support. In fact, insufficient energy production is one of the major obstacles to development in this region. This issue is holding up job creation and economic activity which could offer prospects to young people in rural areas.
Supplying electrical power from renewable resources to all citizens in the communities concerned would without any doubt increase stability and prosperity in Masisi Territory.
Water from the Wau river is delivered by a pipeline to the micro-plant site.
The Wau micro hydroelectric plant is the fruit of the co-operation between the province of North Kivu, the United Nations Development Programme and the government of the Republic of Korea, which has provided the necessary resources.
The hydroelectric site operates thanks to a water abstraction point on the river Wau, located 600 metres from the micro-plant. Water is delivered with a water pressure of 107 metres in height in order to power two turbines with a total capacity of 350 Kw. The works have been achieved by manual labour, and have required considerable efforts from the community to carry them out in an area which is difficult to access.
The Masisi Territory is not very accessible in the rainy season and local realities have made working on the micro hydroelectric plant more complicated
The Wau micro hydroelectric plant has an operational capacity of between 250 and 350KW. Two turbines have been installed, of 250 KW and 126 KW respectively. The total cost of completing these works is estimated at 530,000 dollars. Hydroelectric power is a renewable and sustainable source of energy which is also an element in the fight against climate change.
(South Korea's contribution: 330,000 USD, UNDP's contribution: 100,000 USD, North Kivu Government: 100,000 USD)
The engineer in charge of the site undertakes the necessary adjustments for the completion of the works.
The opening of the micro-plant took place on 18 April 2017 in the presence of several hundred Masisi citizens, eager to benefit from the electrification of their communities. This event was honoured by the attendance of the Republic of Korea's ambassador to the DRC, several provincial authorities, the UNDP Country Director and the KOICA cooperation agency's representative.
Turning on the first light bulb thanks to the micro-plant. From left to right: Ms Priya Gajraj, UNDP Country Director, North Kivu Vice-Governor Feller Lutahichirw and His Excellency Kwon Ki-Chang, Republic of Korea Ambassador
The Republic of Korea's ambassador spoke of the importance of this project for South Korea "This project means a great deal to my country because it brings aid to a population which has suffered the sorrows of war. Conflict always has disastrous consequences for peaceful communities and defenceless citizens. The Republic of Korea, which has also experienced an unfortunate war, has a better understanding of this situation. That is why my government has chosen to contribute to this project."
At the opening ceremony, Ms Priya Gajraj, UNDP Country Director, emphasised: "Supplying electrical power to all citizens in the communities concerned would be a contributing factor to stability and sustainable development in Masisi Territory. It is imperative that national and provincial efforts now ensure that equipment is maintained, management is efficient, and that a fair means of sharing out the resultant opportunities is implemented".
Provincial Minister of Agriculture, Livestock, Fisheries and Rural Development, Christophe Ndibeshe Byemero was delighted about the future benefits of the project: "Electrification in rural areas leads to rural development! For example, it helps women who are involved in agricultural processing, such as flour production. Access to electricity will also make it possible to keep foodstuffs - such as milk - fresh, and boost growth in the livestock industry. We will soon be able to build dairies and store cheese."
The work of supplying the power to the some 40,000 beneficiaries remains to be achieved by local authorities
The territory's Administrator has acknowledged that some works which are a responsibility at a national level are still required in order to supply the power: "We have taken delivery of the materials today but there are still 2 or 3 phases to be carried out in order to make the power available to beneficiaries. The poles are currently being put in place. Two months from now, at provincial government level we expect to be supplying power to key locations such as the hospital, the county-town, schools, etc."
Marc Kasoki, a journalist at local community radio station KALEMBERA FM, hopes that local media will be amongst the first supplied. "To do our job as providers of information, our radios need to have a permanent electricity supply to put on programmes and transmit our broadcasts."
Efforts still to be made on a national level involve in particular maintenance of all equipment, efficiency in management, and implementing a fair means of sharing out the resultant opportunities. This means amongst other things the creation of microbusinesses, lighting for basic social amenities and the use of electrical power in homes.
Tradespeople in Masisi currently run their shops without electricity, which limits their ability to sell and store perishable foodstuffs.
The cooperation between North Kivu Province, the UNDP and the Republic of Korea has also made it possible to achieve significant outcomes for local communities in Masisi and Walikale:
- two centres for professional training covering 8 subjects and with a total capacity of 340 learners per year
- 2 rural markets have been rebuilt, benefiting 255 people
- 15 km of agricultural service roads have been reinstated
- In total, 16,700 people have directly benefited from this project.
Once the works supplying the micro hydroelectric plant's power are completed, current and future generations in Masisi Territory will be able to enjoy on a long-term basis the benefits of renewable energy.

Tully's Coffee Corp. has announced that it is selling its chain of 47 coffee shops to a Colorado-based private equity firm, Kachi Partners, for $4.3 million dollars.
Tully's, which filed for bankruptcy last month and closed numerous unprofitable cafes, currently operates 47 cafes in Washington and California. According to a recent bankruptcy filing, Kachi was one of 13 companies that showed interest in buying the struggling company, and the only one that made an offer to purchase all of Tully's assets.
"With this agreement in place with Kachi, we believe the business is positioned to emerge from this process in early 2013 and that we will be a much stronger company as a result," Tully's CEO Scott Pearson said in a statement.
The sale is expected to be finalized Dec. 31, and Kachi plans to operate the coffee shops under the Tully's name.

Stop hating on carbs
Carbs or fats? Muffins or bacon? This or that? I'm befuddled when fad diets pull the wool over American eyes—common sense proclaims moderation in food variety. But, of course, media madness picks out juicy research tidbits to sensationalize weight and health studies without telling the rest of the story. And authors dash to flash their new diet books.
This year, Medical News Today reported on a study about lowcarb diets. In this corner are carbs. In that corner are fats. Both continue to fight it out. Ding! Who will win in the world of weight loss? The study concluded "that it is hard to tell." Hmmm.

Queen's Park 0 Rangers 4
Rangers Under 17's got their Glasgow Cup campaign off to a winning start with a comfortable victory over Queen's Park at Toryglen tonight. The Hampden side were competitive throughout but once Ross Lyon had given Rangers the lead there was little doubt who would be the winners.
The first threat on goal came in the third minute when Max Ashmore played the ball forward to Ross Lyon and his shot from just outside the box forced the home keeper to save low to his left. A further three minutes had elapsed when Queen's replied with an attack down the left, when the ball was crossed towards the right hand angle of the box it was taken on the volley which wasn't too far off target as the ball went over.
The Queen's keeper was soon called into action again, the ball was played into Sam Jamieson just inside the penalty area and his lay off freed Liam Burt who was denied when the keeper pushed his shot over. On nineteen minutes Ross Lyon in possession on the right passed to Jamie Barjonas on the angle of the box who shot across goal and wide of the far post.
Barely a minute later Rangers broke the deadlock, the move started with Jamie Barjonas on the left who passed inside to Liam Burt, his reverse pass set Ross Lyon free inside the box and after rounding the keeper he slotted the ball past a defender on the line. Five minutes later Liam Burt played the ball forward to Ross Lyon who turned back onto his left foot before shooting narrowly over.
Queen's Park showed they were still a threat with an attack down the left and when the shot came in Robbie McCrorie saved comfortably at his near post. A few minutes later the home side sent a free-kick in from the left and when it was headed clear by a Rangers defender as far as a Queen's player twenty-five yards out and his effort was decent if just a little too high.
With less than ten minutes of the half remaining Rangers doubled their lead, from a free-kick on the left midway inside the Queen's half Liam Burt's superb delivery had the home defence under pressure and their centre back's header flew past his own keeper for an Own Goal. Liam Burt then almost got on the score sheet himself when he drove at the defence on the right side of the penalty area before shooting just over.
He was proving to be the main threat to the home defence and when Jamie Barjonas passed inside from the right Liam Burt was again just off target, this time narrowly wide of the keeper's right hand post. On the stroke of half-time he came closer still, Jamie Brandon started the move from left-back and passed inside to Liam Burt who exchanged passes with Ross Lyon on the edge of the box which sent him through on the keeper, he appeared to be caught as he went past the keeper but stayed on his feet and could only find the side netting with his shot.
Half-Time:-Queen's Park 0 Rangers 2
Almost a quarter of an hour of the second half had gone when Rangers increased their lead, Jamie Brandon sent a free-kick from the left close to the halfway line into the box where Ross McCrorie got a flick on and when a Queen's defender failed to clear Liam Burt pounced to net from close range. Rangers fourth goal came with around ten minutes remaining, Jason Krones played the ball forward and a superb piece of skill from Kyle Clark took him clear of a defender and when he knocked the ball past the keeper Andy Dallas won the race with a defender to knock the ball into the empty net. The home keeper was called into action again before the end, Liam Burt's free-kick from the left hand angle of the box forcing to save at his near post.
Full-Time:- Queen's Park 0 Rangers 4
Rangers:- Robbie McCrorie; Aidan Wilson, Jason Krones, Ross McCrorie, Jamie Brandon (Kyle Bradley 75mins); Max Ashmore; Ross Lyon (Andy Dallas 68mins), Jamie Brandon, Liam Burt, Kyle Clark; Sam Jamieson (Grant Nelson 72mins)

A FIFTH of parents surveyed in Oxford said they did not know what 'school ready' means - above the UK average of 17 per cent.
Nursery and childcare chain Busy Bees carried out the survey and said some children are at risk of falling behind before school.
Although the survey was of 1,500 people altogether, the Oxford respondents only numbered 86.
School readiness is a benchmark that considers a child's ability to engage in early learning experiences.
It is typically defined by their capacity to perform skills that demonstrate independence and emotional development.

"The mountains are calling and I must go." It's all over the region and really resonates with me. I love mountains. I tried to leave my mountains once. Went all the way to Australia and Taiwan and stuff, but ended up back at their feet the second they called to me. It's like how some people are sea people (my parents for example: the first thing they did after retiring from serving on Coast Guard ships was buy a waterfront property, kayaks and two sailboats; and unlike most boat owners, they're actually out on the water at every opportunity), me, I'm a mountain person.
I looked up the quote and it is attributed to John Muir, the Scottish-American nature writer/engineer/botanist/ecologist. If the name sounds familiar, it probably is. He was a key influence in preserving the US west coast's most well known wilderness areas and national parks. There are a lot of places named after him, especially in California.
Back to Glacier National Park, for day 2, upon recommendation from the great front desk staff at our hotel, we committed to the Avalanche Trail Hike.
Given the limited parking around the trail, we opted to leave the car at the Visitor's Center and take the free shuttle. We didn't realize until much later that it was the first shuttle day of the season. Because of that, there were some kinks in the scheduling (it was a fairly long wait to get on the shuttle, then on the way back, there were about 30 of us waiting and about 6 empty shuttles going the wrong direction went by before one finally arrived to bring us back down) but the other visitors were excellent, many were very interesting to listen to, so it never felt like wasted time. Besides, we only wanted to do the one hike so there was no hurry.
The shuttle dropped us right in front of (ok, actually, right across the street from) this sign. As you can see, Trail of the Cedars is a prerequisite to reach the Avalanche Lake Trailhead.
If hiking's not your thing but you still want to enjoy nature, this is a great trail for you. It's flat (even wheelchair accessible!), it circles a beautiful creek and there are great information panels describing some of the surrounding trees and plants. It's a busy trail, but didn't feel crowded.
There are signs everywhere warning about wildlife and lots of visitors are carrying bear bells and bear spray, but this is such a popular trail this time of year and day that I'd be shocked to encounter anything other than deer and squirrels. We did see this lady (or possibly a fellow, the picture didn't turn out well but from what I remember it was a mom with a little one playing nearby) searching the forest floor and totally ignoring us.
It doesn't take long, 15 minutes perhaps, to reach this part.
It's a fairly easy trail with a bit of uphill. We're out of shape (a consequence of my newfound laziness and refusal to leave my house) so we huffed and puffed, yet along the way we came across countless moms sporting babycarriers (with actual babies or toddlers inside) who hadn't broke a sweat. One was even carrying TWO babies. Consider me impressed.
There's some interesting flora.
Most of the hike is through the woods, with cliffs and peaks hiding behind the trees.
I didn't time our hike, but I think it took us about an hour to reach the end of the main trail.
I caught the lake from a few other angles as well.
Like pretty much everyone else hiking that trail in late morning (and those who had the misfortune of being in my photo), we picked a log to sit on and eat lunch. (We had talked about bringing our chairs, but there was no room. After the hike, we went and bought Ed his own day pack so that our chairs can improve our comfort in future hikes).
I want to take this moment to talk about the quality of visitors here. I've lived in and traveled to touristy places for big chunks of my life and I've never seen such exemplary park guests. Our local National Park attracts idiots who get up close and personal to bears (for every moron who makes the news, I would guess there are 100+ who go unreported) while leaving their cars in the middle of the road and their children running around in traffic (especially scary given that there is a lot of reckless driving and speeding happening on national park highways). The National Parks in Malaysia were full of disgusting jerks (foreigners by the way) who tossed their trash everywhere and encouraged their children to feed the monkeys. And for the record, the only thing that pisses me off more that people who litter, is people who litter in other people's countries. I still can't wrap my head around how many foreigners I cleaned up after while we were Asia. My blood boils just thinking about it.
Back to Glacier, most of the visitors were families, many of them quite large with 5+ children. I counted one family with 9. While we were waiting for the shuttle, there was a dad with 7 (mom was probably getting a few hours break). And these kids were calm, polite and helpful. Like, to an extent that I didn't know was possible. No one littered, no one ran off trail, no one mutilated the trees. Everyone looked before crossing the road, everyone patiently waited in line for the shuttle. All around, I saw parents gently teaching their (many) kids about how to respectfully enjoy National Parks. I actually felt inadequate about my parenting skills and I don't even have kids. Incredible. I don't know where Glacier finds its visitors, but it's more than welcome to send some of them our way.
After lunch, we wanted to see the end of the secondary trail (if you scroll back up to the trailhead sign, you can see that there is a darker dotted line and a lighter dotted line, I call the lighter part the secondary trail) so we hiked it to the end sign.
Honestly, not really worth it.
Too celebrate our rare day of physical activity (gotta replace those burned calories!) and partake in a different sort of tourism, we stopped by Burger King to enjoy their featured not-available-in-(our part of)-Canada dish, the Mac n'Cheetos.
More to my style, I later enjoyed a creative cocktail at MacKenzie River Pizza (which is a chain, but still a Montana company with headquarters in Whitefish). IMHO, one of the best ways to end a good day.

In 1964, Beatlemania officially reached America. On February 7, 1964, the Fab Four – John Lennon, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and George Harrison – boarded the Pan Am Flight 101 at Heathrow Airport in London. An estimated 4000 fans congratulate them on their first trip to America. When they landed at New York's JFK Airport a few hours later, another 4,000 (screaming) fans were waiting for them. But that was nothing compared to the number of people who would see on February 9, 1964, the The Ed Sullivan Show of the legendary Rocker. On the 55th anniversary of this historic television event, there were 10 things you may not know about the show.
. 1
The band did not come cheap …
Similar to The Tonight Show today, asked to appear the Ed Sullivan Show in the 1960s was a great honor and established artist in the 1960s. The advertising produced by a performance on the show was enough for most talents to say yes. The Beatles, however, would only agree if the show covers their travel expenses and pays them $ 10,000 (which would be just over $ 80,000 in 2019 dollars). Sullivan and its producers agreed, but only if the Beatles committed to three gigs. They had a deal.
. 2 … but they were ultimately a relatively cheap deal.
Although billing travel expenses and an entry fee for The Ed Sullivan Show was not the norm, it was a big part of the program and a testament to Beatlemania's success in America in Great Britain. It is estimated that nearly 74 million people – 40 percent of the country's population at that time – watched the Beatles live.
. 3 Technically, it was not the band's American television debut.
While the Ed Sullivan Show was the first time the Beatles had performed live on American television, it was not the first time they had appeared on American television. On November 18, 1963, NBC's The Huntley Brinkley Report aired a breathtaking four-minute section on Beatlemania – the madness that swept England away. Just days later, on November 22 CBS Morning News conducted a five-minute section on the band's popularity overseas. The segment was due to resend that evening, but the message was suspended because of the murder of JFK. Walter Cronkite finally re-sent it on December 10, 1963 as part of CBS Evening News .
. 4 More than 700 people were able to experience it live.
While more than a third of the American population experienced music history the night the Beatles appeared, the Ed Sullivan Show appeared See how everything goes live as part of the show's audience. And when we say "very happy," we mean it seriously: the program received a record 50,000 tickets for the show.
. 5 Many people linked Beatlemania to the murder of JFK.
In terms of timing, the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and the rise of Beatlemania in America were closely linked. While many people decided that the band's popularity was partly due to the death of the president – that Americans needed something positive and positive – others believe that this is purely coincidental. In 2013, Slate debated (and largely debunked) the questionable links between Camelot's demise and Liverpool's rise.
. 6 The Beatles were not the only performers of the evening.
Remember Charlie Brill and Mitzi McCall? No? No problem. Also, the majority of the 74 million people who watched the Ed Sullivan Show that night. Brill & McCall were the unfortunate act that had to pursue the groundbreaking, industry-changing performance of the Fab Four. The married sketch-comedy duo was pretty bombarded, as the audience was quite distracted. In 2014, a couple – celebrating its 59th anniversary this year – talked about this notorious night with CBS.
"Things went bad for us," McCall laughed. "It was awful."
"We made a sketch," Brill added. "We could not hear each other. Because of the screaming.
Although the look of her career did not mean much to ultimately advance her career, it was "an honor" to be part of it. " We were there when the world changed. "She said
7. That night was also one of the Monkees.
Davy Jones was also in The Ed Sullivan Show that night, but not part of the Monkees Jones was He played with the cast of Broadways Oliver! Jones played the Artful Dodger, first in London, then in New York, and was eventually nominated for a Tony for the role. [Nothecrimerate
You've heard the old saying that the crime rate in the US dropped dramatically during the Beatles' show on the show, obviously the whole nation was like that from the Liverpool guys That's a nice story, but according to Snope, that's not true.
The rumor started when Bill Gold, a Washington Post reporter, snarkily remarked that the Beatles were present that evening, that nowhere hubcaps were stolen. It should be concluded that the Beatles appealed to the kind of degenerate who would do such a thing, but the meaning was twisted and reprinted by Newsweek . Gold wrote a witty retreat on February 21, 1964: "This week from Newsweek my report is quoted by BF Henry as saying that there is a good thing about the Beatles – during the hour, there was no stolen hubcap in America in Ed Sullivan's show. "
I must inform Newsweek with a heavy heart that this report was wrong. 307 E. Groveton St., Alexandria , had parked his car on the church grounds during this hour – and all four of his hubcaps were stolen.
The Washington Post regrets the mistake and District Liners Fellenz regrets that somewhere in Alexandria lives a hipster, the too poor to own a TV. "
9. The "very nice" telegram from Elvis Presley was not from Elvis Presley.
Was not it nice that Elvis Presley started the American "debut" of the Beatles with a personal telegram? Just before John, Paul, George and Ringo entered the stage, Ed Sullivan announced that he had received a "very nice" telegram from The King and wished the Fab Four "tremendous success". Elvis was known to be jealous of the Beatles. His manager, Colonel Tom Parker, was responsible for the note and only sent it because he thought Elvis would look good. (Apparently the contempt was mutual, and when the band received the telegram prior to their performance, Harrison allegedly mockingly asked, "Elvis who?")
10. Sullivan's musical director was not impressed.
The crowd (and a third of America) may have gone mad when the Beatles performed, but Ray Bloch – the music director of the Ed Sullivan Show – was not so impressed. Asked for a comment by a reporter for The New York Times he was blunt: "The only thing that's different is the hair, as far as I can see, I'll give 'em a year."

There are foods that ought to be avoided when it comes to maintaining healthy white teeth. There are even foods and beverages that can erode the enamel as much as any other food containing natural acid. Here is all of the foods and beverages that can stain the teeth and should be consumed appropriately:
1) Tea –
Tea can cause discoloration of the teeth more than coffee can stain it. There are also studies that prove that some herbal teas contain substances that can potentially strip the enamel of a tooth along with staining it. For iced tea and other carbonated drinks, you may use straw to reduce staining the teeth.
2) Energy drink –
Sports drinks are also acidic beverages which contain chemicals and vitamins which can erode the tooth enamel. It also contains food coloring which make it easier to stain the teeth once the enamel has been stripped off.
3) Sauces –
Food sauces especially those rich ones are some causes of teeth staining aside from being acidic such as tomato sauce and curry sauce. Some sauces have ingredients that are also known to be natural food colorings. You may consider lighter sauces or perhaps brush and rinse your teeth after every meal.
4) Wine And Alcoholic Beverages –
Highly acidic red wince may cause discoloration of the teeth as it contains chromogens and tanning. Just when you thought that white wine is safe, think again as this is more acidic and has more potential of staining your teeth.
5) Soda and Carbonated Beverages –
Carbonated beverages contain chromogens and acid that can discolor the teeth even if it does not contain dark food coloring. Some carbonated drinks are even found to be as acidic as battery acid and contain flavorings that also have the ability to strip off tooth enamel.
6) Fruit Berries –
Berries are one of the fruits which can cause stains on the teeth due to its highly pigmented molecules. Some examples of these are blackberries, blueberries, cherries, and pomegranates. Although some highly pigmented fruits seem to be of lighter colors, their acid content can still harm the tooth enamel. So make sure to brush after eating a slice of a blueberry pie.
7) Sweets And Candies –
Candies contain food coloring that can stain your teeth just like popsicles and chewing gums. Although the coloring may not be permanent but consuming this too often and gnawing on hard candies may damage the teeth and cause discoloration. So always rinse and brush after eating or chew sugarless gum to take off the food coloring and additives.

For my money, the best iOS games are simple, accessible, and to be played within a minute or two of download.

For my money, the best iOS games are simple, accessible, and to be played within a minute or two of download. This is the genius of the new Chillingo hit Blobster, which is available for 99 cents on the iPhone and $1.99 on the iPad.
As Appolicious Advisor Andrew Koziara explains in his video review, "The animation of your character is great. Most levels take anywhere from 30 seconds to two minutes to complete, unless you keep dying like I do when I go for 100% completion. The bonus stages are tons of fun though."
In this week's Game Theory, we learn how Blobster developer Divine Robot goes about developing mainstream games of the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch.
"We knew we were on to something good," explains Divine Robot Creative Director Henrik Johnson, "when my friend's 4-year old boy, 15-year old daughter and my mother simultaneously all sat immersed in the game at the dinner table."
Johnson also discusses the Blobster Remote feature in the HD version, his hope and believe independent developers will always have a place in the app economy, and the steps his company takes to "avoid creating a generation of gamers with repetitive strain injuries."
Appolicious: How is Blobster different than any other platformer available for iOS devices?
Henrik Johnson: The most obvious difference is in my opinion the control system. With the slingshot mechanic we feel we have managed to create an intuitive interface for the main character that is native to the touch experience. As retro-cool as it would be to hook up an old TAC-II to the iPhone, trying to emulate a stick or D-pad control with onscreen controls is kind of like tying reins to the steering-wheel of a fancy new car!
On a second note, and this is highly subjective of course, I think we have managed to impart some of that innocent retro-platformer feeling from our youthful days with classic Commodore titles as a big inspiration. Partly this might be due to the fact that old platform games – I'm talking real old-school here – like Jet Set Willy and Manic Miner, had me wanting to create a game of my own for the last 25 years. Finally it happened and we are delighted with the reception in the gaming community so far!
APPO: Who is your target audience?
HJ: My personal taste in games has me longing for universal appeal – not just for marketing reasons – but because I think great games should instantly communicate and resonate with anyone that picks them up.
I am too old and lazy to get into a game where the control system and game mechanics require days of study and practice. That is too much like work for me! That being said, it is very impressive to watch real hardcore gamers do their thing. I have a couple of friends who are deeply into strategy games – it is fantastic to watch them play, even though I would never want to do their thing myself! As for Blobster, we knew we were on to something good when my friend's 4-year old boy, 15-year old daughter and my mother simultaneously all sat immersed in the game at the dinner table.
APPO: What are the distinctions between the iPhone/iPod touch and iPad versions of the game?
HJ: Aside from the graphics all being native to each device, the main difference on the iPad is the "Blobster remote".
During beta testing we were noticing many players wanting to hold the iPad with both hands, like a steering-wheel. This makes it strenuous for those with smaller hands to reach in with their finger to stretch Blobster.
Since we want no part in creating a generation of gamers with repetitive strain injuries we put a stretchable controller at the edge of the screen which can be placed left or right depending on what hand you prefer to use! Of course players can still stretch Blobster directly, just like on the iPhone, but now there is an extra convenience-layer of control in there too. This is again part of the philosophy to make each control system native to the device it is running on.
APPO: Are there any plans to bring the title to Android devices? If so, when? If not, why not?
HJ: Quite a few people have been asking for an Android-Blobster, and although I cannot confirm anything at the present moment, it is something we are looking into. From my personal perspective, I would love to see Blobster on Android!
APPO: Less than two weeks into launch, what marketing channels are you seeing as the biggest driver of downloads of the game?
HJ: First of all, with the ever-growing number of available titles in the App Store, I still think the most crucial thing is to have a great game that people love to play.
Secondly, Chillingo is expertly helping us get the word out about Blobster. They have done a fantastic job, and my personal impression, the major influence for getting downloads is exposure in the App Store itself. If you have only one of these two you might fail completely – there are many examples of great games that get buried, and equally there are quite a few heavily marketed subpar titles that never yield a decent return on investment either.
APPO: How do you anticipate driving downloads over time?
HJ: I think it is important to keep expanding your offering through frequent updates and by adding new and exciting content. We are a small indie studio, and this helps us keep an ear to the ground. We are actively listening to our user base, and we are already in production with several great new features and expansions for Blobster. We try to view our games as services rather than products. A service suggests an ongoing process that we are offering people, rather than the static finality of producthood: "Signed, sealed, delivered. It's yours" to paraphrase Stevie Wonder.
APPO: In your opinion, what are the most important attributes that drive a hit game?
HJ: That is the big question, isn't it? I think there are many different driving attributes for different kinds of hit games. The driving attributes for a FPS will be very different than the ones driving a Facebook-game!
Some of the things we think are important pertaining to the niche we are in with Blobster is universal appeal, accessibility, easy-to-understand-but-hard-to-master mechanics. Slick gameplay, smooth scrolling and a control system that becomes so natural to use that it feels transparent. A strong character-driven environment that allows people to fall in love with the character is another big thing for us.
I will leave it to others to judge how well we have managed to do any of those things, but we gave it all we had and people seem to be responding well to it!
APPO: What are the three biggest aspects of the mobile gaming space today that are keeping you up at night?
HJ: The main things keeping me up at night are my two baby girls who were born just before the launch of Blobster! They are an excellent anti-dote to worrying about mobile gaming.
If there is anything that keeps me up concerning the mobile gaming space, it is thinking about new ideas for games, that is a favorite pastime of mine!
On a more serious note, it is my keen hope that as the app market matures, the horizontal and democratic structure of the current situation will be maintained. It would be sad to see the indies pushed into the periphery in favor of the big brands like in the 1990's. I am an optimist at heart though, and I think things are looking tremendously fun and exciting for the future. I can't wait to see what awesome ideas the gaming-community will come up with next!

The influent flows through the inlet pipe, proceeds through a distribution system, and then moves outward and upward around a distribution cone and through the sand media. Concurrently, the sand is moving downward, which entraps the debris (colloids). The sand, the debris (colloids), and a small portion of effluent continues flowing downward through the cone-shaped bottom and into the fluidized bed.
Filtration occurs as the influent passes through the sand. The filtered fluid now rises to the top of the sand filter and enters the outflow pipe and flows downward to the outlet.
From the fluidized bed, the sand and debris (colloids) enter a scouring chamber where pressurized air (factory supplied) swirls, scours and loosens the wet sand and debris (colloids). This pressurized airis also used to move the sand and debris (colloids) up through the lift pipe, which is part of the fluidized system, and back into the top of the sand filter. From here, the sand and debris (colloids) enter into a two-stage separator. The clean sand flows downward into the sand filter for re-use the debris (colloids) now flows out of the sand filter through the top drain.
At this point, the debris (colloids) that were discharged through the drain of the sand filter enters the Model 290 Cascading Strainer.
The debris (colloids) is caught in a catcher and then can be hauled away to a landfill or recycling process. The water remaining in the Model 290 Cascading Strainer is then sent to the Model 611 Simplex Bag Filter for final filtration. Now the fluid is ready for re-injection into the sand filter. The final result is "ZERO LIQUID DISCHARGE".

One thing is certain, you are going to hear a lot more about Land Rover's e_Terrain technologies in the future. The company's e_Terrain developments were first showcased via the Land_e concept renderings shown by Land Rover in 2006. One of the most interesting features of e_Terrain is e_Terrain Response. We'll see further applications of e_Terrain technologies as Land Rover moves into the hybrid and electric vehicle segments.
Could the same factors that killed the Defender in the U.S. back in 1997 finally sink the Defender for good almost 20 years later? For the 1998 model year, new regulations that required air bags and more stringent side impact standards became active. The Defender was not able to meet the new standards without major changes. Now, the Defender is facing similar hurdles in Europe. Emissions, fuel economy, and safety regulations are staring the Defender in the grill.
While we can safely speculate U.S. buyers will not have to worry about the diesel powertrains quite yet, the 2012 Discovery 4 does give some hints as to what we can expect to see in the 2012 LR4. Overall, the Discovery 4 continues to see improvements for the 2012 model year. While improvements to the diesel powertrains are the most significant changes for 2012, there are a number of feature upgrades over the 2011 model year.
The results of the J.D. Power and Associates 2011 Automotive Performance Execution and Layout (APEAL) Study were released today. Jaguar and Land Rover ranked among the top five brands, with Jaguar coming in 2nd and Land Rover coming in 4th. 2011 marks the fourth year in a row for Jaguar taking the number two spot. Land Rover moves up one notch from 5th place last year and marks the fourth consecutive year in which Land Rover has improved its rank.
This afternoon, Bergstrom Premier Motorcars in Appleton, Wisconsin, hosted a preview event for the 2012 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque.

What Is The National Flower of Turkey?
Tulip is the national flowerof Turkey. Tulipagesnerianais the scientific name of Tulip and it is commonly known as tulipa or garden tulip.Tulip or in Botany Tulipa, is derived from the Turkish word tulbend or turban, which the flower resembles, is the national flower of Turkey. Available in a huge variety of bright colors, including white, yellow, pink, red, and black, purple, orange, bi-colors, and multi-colors, Tulips are also considered as the King of Bulbs. In Turkey Tulips became and important style of life within the arts and folklore, many embroidery and textile clothing handmade by women, carpets, tiles and miniatures had tulip designs or shapes..Tulip, Turkey's national flower symbol, symbolizesdifferent things depending on color and variations.
Facts about Turkey's National Flower (Tulip)
- Common Name: Tulip, tulipa or garden tulip
- Genus: Tulipa
- Species: gesneriana
- Found in: Gülhane Park, Istanbul,Mountainous areas with temperate climates.
- Color: White, pink, yellow, green
- Number of petals: 3 petals and 3 sepals
- Time of blooming: Spring
- Purpose: Gardening, adornment
- Symbolism: love, passion, loyalty and romance
Tulip is the favorite national flower symbol of the people of Turkey.People in Turkey feel greatly attached to their national flower and because of their love towards the Tulips, they are planted all over the nation. Tulips belong to Liliaceae family (Lilioideae,sub-family) and Tulipa as a genus.The word "tulip" means turban in Turkish and is thought to signify the plants turban-like shape.Tulips begin their lives as bulbs, rather than seeds alone.Tulips bloom in spring, but preparation begins in early to late winter. Tulip bulbs need a minimum of four weeks of chilling before they will bloom and in order for the bulbs to blossom in the springtime, they must be planted in the summer months.
This beautiful flower grows as a single stem and flower for each plant, with 2 to 6 long, thin and green leaves. Tulip blooms only 3-7 days in spring and can reachheight ranging from 10cm to 71cm depending on the species. It is aneye-catching flower with V-shape leaves with a waxy coating and the actual flowers have three petals and three sepals (they are termed as "tepals" because are so identical). Tulips come in a wide variety of about 150 species and with over 3000 different diversities. They not only differ in species, but tulips also come with a large range of colors except pure blue.
In the 1600s tulips were the most expensive flower in the world; some were even valued higher than most homes.Investors traded bulbs for far above their true value before the market suddenly crashed. The term "Tulip Mania" was derived from this occurrence. Now, "Tulip Mania" is often used to describe any economic bubble. Most species of Tulip are perfectly symmetrical, which makes them a great centerpiece for the home or office environment. They're also extremely vibrant in color and each color symbolizes different things. For example, Yellow is the color of unrequited or spurned love, Bright red is the color of passion and perfect love, Purple is tied to royalty, but also abundance and prosperity and Pink is less intense affection and love, appropriate for friends and family.
The most popular flower is the rose, the second most popular the chrysanthemum and the tulips are in third place in the row of most popular flowers. On Valentine's Day, the tulip is the second most popular flower to send (after the roses). Tulips have other uses as well. Since they are the members of Liliaceae family (like onions), the bulbs of the tulips are sometimes used in place of onions. The petals are often used to decorate dishes just because of the elegance of their colors.
To sum up, Tulip is the officialnational flower of Turkey. This flower not only symbolizes the beginning of spring, but also holds linkage to the tradition and culture of Turkey.

What does this mean?
Well the recipient or your smarthost server refused the email because you are black listed at barracudanetworks.com (actually http://www.barracudacentral.org/reputation).
What to do?
Fist check where your public IP address or domain is black listed. Visit http://www.blacklistalert.com/ and provide your public IP address or domain and click check.
If you are black listed you may have several options:
- Go to each black list organization and see if there is an option to remove your IP address or domain from the black list. Some black lists, like http://www.uceprotect.net/en don't allow removal at all.
- Check the reason why you are black listed. It may be that not your IP address is black listed but the whole sub net of your provider. In this case you may consider contacting your ISP for resolving this.
- You may try to send your email using your internet providers SMTP smarthost.
- If it is your IP address, that is black listed examine how this could happen. Maybe someone made abuse of your Internet connection for sending spam. This may be done by some virus infected computer. Take measures to resolve this.
- If you are using a dynamic IP address someone who used this address before may have sent spam or may have an infected computer used to sent spam. Ask your ISP for a fixed static IP address.

text: (Bloomberg) -- .It may not be all doom and gloom for Singapore's economy..Recent data and anecdotal evidence suggest gross domestic product will probably grow in the third quarter after shrinking in the previous three months, according to economists including Chua Hak Bin at Maybank Kim Eng Research Pte. and Barnabas Gan at United Overseas Bank Ltd..That would mean the city state will narrowly avoid a technical recession, commonly defined as two consecutive quarters of contraction..Even so, there's little to cheer about. Economists have slashed their 2019 growth forecasts for the export-reliant economy as the U.S.-China trade war intensifies. Singapore's government is projecting growth of zero to 1% for the year..Irvin Seah, a senior economist at DBS Group Holdings Ltd., said he isn't optimistic about the country's prospects even if the economy avoids a technical recession. He predicts expansion of just 0.7% for the full year..Maybank cites three main reasons for the mild improvement, which it says should help boost Singapore's services output and offset the slump in manufacturing:.Front-Loading Orders.Businesses may be front-loading some orders before the U.S. slaps a 15% tariff on Chinese consumer goods, like mobile phones and laptops, in December. Also, there are signs that a slump in technology exports, which had been a drag on manufacturing, is starting to ease. Singapore's July data reflected some of that rebound, with industrial production posting a far better performance than economists had predicted..Loan Growth.Singapore's financial center is benefiting as more businesses finance their regional projects via lenders based in the city state. Offshore loans rose 7% in July from a year ago, while domestic lending grew 2%. The strongest growth in offshore loans was in construction and manufacturing, surging 18% and 15% respectively..Hong Kong Diversion.Protests and disruptions in Hong Kong have pushed leisure and business tourism to Singapore. Visitor arrivals grew 4% in July from a year ago, the fastest pace in 9 months, with hotel occupancy rising to 94%, the highest level ever for July, according to data from the Singapore Tourism Board. Despite a regional drop in Chinese tourists, Singapore-bound visitors from China rose 7.8% in July from a year ago, while tourists from the U.S. rose 17% and from Indonesia, 12%..Singapore may benefit as more business events and conferences are diverted from Hong Kong, said Maybank, citing the Golden Wellness Summit planned for October, which was moved from Hong Kong to Singapore, and other events..To contact the reporter on this story: Yongchang Chin in Singapore at firstname.lastname@example.com contact the editors responsible for this story: Nasreen Seria at firstname.lastname@example.com, Michael S.

Earning a college degree is important because not only do you get to expand your knowledge but most jobs are more likely to hire people that are in college vs. someone who has no college experience. I have experienced it myself where I was denied a job because I did not have any college experience. In a article called "College Graduates have Weathered the Recession Well," Beth Keller states that "there are more employed college graduates than there are employed high school graduates and high school dropouts together." Of course, who wouldn't chose to hire someone more educated? Since people with college degrees are the ones getting the jobs this mean they're the ones getting the money too. Which Beth Keller also states in the article "College Graduates have Weathered the Recession Well" that with "Findings as recent as 2011 show that there is a $1 million difference in high school graduates earnings compared with those whose highest education is a bachelors degree and those with a doctorates." Although many may say that money can't buy happiness, money can play a big role in how happy we can be. So if you want the good job that makes the good money, it's best that you get a college degree.
One thought on "why is earning a college degree important?"
Excellent job on your blog, Teresa. You should keep writing journal entries on your blog 🙂

All appointments are remote (Zoom/telephone/email) for the rest of 2020 due to the Coronavirus.
New shamanic clients should start with a 2 hour Shamanic Session (either in-person or remote) for their first appointment, or a remote consultation appointment if they have questions about whether working with me would be a good fit. Logistical questions can be answered via email, but any questions specific to your situation need be in a session.
Returning clients should check with Gayle on which appointment is best. Generally, if a new diagnostic journey is required or there are multiple issues or questions a 2 hour appt is best. One issue or a continuation of the first appt can be done in an hour.
While changes are rare, I reserve the right to cancel and refund appointments or suggest a different time when my helping spirts say it is not a good fit or a good time to work.

- WorkSharp WS3000
- Brand: WorkSharp | Category: Sharpening Accessories
I've slowly been getting into woodworking over the last couple years. Since I began purchasing planes and chisels, I would just use them as-is, right out of the box. I had a fear that if I tried to sharpen them, I'd manage to somehow screw them up. Last month when I was in Sears, I found a WorkSharp WS3000 in the clearance section. It was completely sealed in the box and was $109 and change. I finally had a chance to put it to work, so I sharpened a cheap TSC set of chisels for outside work, my Stanley Sweetheart 750 set, and my Jack Plane. Initial setup was quite simple; it took me maybe 15 minutes. I started with the cheap TSC chisel set in case I made a mistake. Right away, I was making sharp chisels. Probably the one thing I find the most exciting about this product is that there is no learning curve. Simply run your pieces through the different grits and bingo, a sharp tool. Another positive is that the tool is very quiet, at least with my torpedo heater running anyway. I am very pleased with this tool. Would I recommend this to others looking at getting into sharpening their tools? YES, I sure would. Now I feel like a fool for having had a fear of sharpening my tools when there was no need to fear sharpening.

I have their Ken Onion Edition knife sharpener and it's amazing. I plan to get one of these as soon as budget allows. I love my little water stones and the "old school" vibe, but sharpening is something that, really it doesn't matter HOW you do it, you just have to DO IT. So whatever system get's it done best for you, in the most painless way, use that. Thanks for the review! Wish I could find it for $109!

I use a hollow grind and water stones, with the 60 1/2 blade can have a fresh edge in about 2 minutes, but since I switched to the LV PMV blades this happens very seldom. Sometimes I do use the Vertias honing guide to put a new angle on a blade or to bring it back to square after a boo boo!

The Worksharp has been a valuable tool in my shop. Like you commented, it is easy to set up and start sharpening. In response to sharpening lathe tools I have seen jigs built for that purpose. I use a slow speed grinder and the Wolverine system (that rocks). Stumpy has a setup that looks pretty interesting: http://www.stumpynubs.com/worksharp-3000.html (Stumpy owes me a t-shirt for the plug).
No matter what method you use to sharpen your tools just keep them sharp. Makes woodworking tasks easier and a lot less dangerous.

It works great (for me) with straight edges. i got the plane blade gadget to go with mine and it makes sharpening pretty much user proof. If you had a good eye and hand, you could probably do lathe chisels, but if you had both of those, why would you need this beasty.
You can buy better paper for less from Klingspor (http://www.woodworkingshop.com/product/sd06199/#.VKwHOyvF_AQ). i bought enough of the glass disks that I can dedicate one (top and bottom) to one particular grit. Makes it fast to fly through the grits for chisels (bottom) or plane blades (top).

I have this and used it for a while. I bought a LN 4 1/2 plane and the blade it too wide for this sharpener. I ended up getting water stones and now I prefer that. I now use the WS to establish the primary bevel for whatever I have to sharpen, minus the 4 1/2, and move on to the water stones after that for the secondary bevel and go up to 10k in grit.
Another thing about the WS is I never got the hang of free honing with the felt wheel and leather wheel. I think I ended up making it worse so I stopped using them.

Somehow, the World Cup 2018 is less than a year away. The first few nations have already qualified and in about four months we'll have the official draw for the tournament to drool over until next summer.
But the qualification, Confederations Cup, Gold Cup, and other summer action has our imaginations running wild, especially about these top players that could make a big impact at World Cup 2018.
Dele Alli, England
A two-time PFA Team of the Year and Young Player of the Year selection, Dele Alli might be the man to finally solve England's World Cup scoring woes. The 21-year old has had no problem doing so for Spurs the past two seasons, netting 28 goals in his first two seasons of top flight football.
For England Alli hasn't been shy either, scoring in his national team debut in a friendly against France and also in a World Cup qualifier last fall. England manager Gareth Southgate is undoubtedly already brainstorming how to best pair up Alli with Spurs teammate Harry Kane next summer.
Kylian Mbappe, France
Behind defending champion Germany, most established bookies on the net point to France as having the best odds (6/1) of winning World Cup 2018, and the hype around Kylian Mbappe is just one reason why. As of this writing, the 18-year just set the world transfer record in a €180 million move to Real Madrid.
The centre-forward tallied 15 goals and 11 assists in 29 appearances with Monaco last season en route to the Ligue 1 title. Although he's been limited to four caps internationally, it's hard to imagine a scenario where Mbappe isn't starting for Les Bleus in Russia.
Christian Pulisic, USA
America's soccer hopes and dreams next summer will lie mostly on the shoulders of a teenager. But from what he's shown so far in both the Bundesliga and at the senior team level, Christian Pulisic is more than able to handle the pressure.
Already the number 10 has scored five goals in qualifying matches, five times in the Bundesliga with Borussia Dortmund, and in a UEFA Champions League knockout stage match. And by the time Russia rolls around he may already be wearing a club shirt bigger than even BvB.
André Silva, Portugal
Someday in the not-so-distant future, Cristiano Ronaldo will retire from international football. There to fill his shoes at Portugal will be Andre Silva, the 21-year old phenom that just made a €38 million move to AC Milan.
Earning a place on a squad that just won the European championship is never easy, but Silva has quickly proved he more than belongs. His six goals in qualifying are tied for third-most in Europe and his memorable solo-effort against New Zealand in this summer's Confederations Cup gave him an early taste for scoring in Russia.
Alex Iwobi, Nigeria
Even if Alex Iwobi doesn't see an increase in playing time at Arsenal this season, the Nigerian will still be the most exciting African player to watch at World Cup 2018. The winger is truly a world class talent, as evident by his inclusion in the starting XI against Barca in the 2015/16 Champions League at just 19 years old.
Although he represented England on U16, U17, and U18 teams, Lagos-born Iwobi chose to represent Nigeria at the senior level. So far he only has 10 caps and one goal for the Screaming Eagles, but he was nonetheless named the CAF Young Player of the Year and to the CAF Team of the Year in 2016.
Gabriel Jesus, Brazil
Casual football followers were introduced to Gabriel Jesus at the 2016 Summer Olympics, where he scored three goals in Brazil's run to Olympic gold. Less than a month later the then-Palmeiras star made his senior team debut in a World Cup qualifier against Ecuador where he scored twice in the match's final three minutes.
After joining Manchester City in January 2017, the winger stayed true to form by scoring seven goals in 10 Premier League matches. Assuming the winger's form doesn't fade, he and Neymar will truly be the 'it' couple to watch on the pitch in Russia.
Sardar Azmoun, Iran
No matter who Iran gets drawn into a group with, the talent that of Sardar Azmoun is guaranteed to surprise opposing nation's supporters (assuming they don't follow the Russian Premier League or Asia World Cup qualifying). Already the 22-year old has tallied 19 goals in 22 appearances with his national side and this qualifying cycle he is tied for fifth globally with nine scores.
After being linked to clubs like Celtic, Everton, West Ham, and others this summer, the 'Iranian Zlatan' extended his contract with Rubin Kazan for one more season. On loan most of the past two seasons with Rostov, Azmoun scored 25 goals in 77 appearances playing as a centre forward.

It seems as through Kansas only knows how to jump, skip, or hop into a new season. We had a small taste of Fall weather, and it is now feeling a lot more like winter. The landscape has most likely dramatically changed in the last few weeks. If you overseeded your lawn, you're hopefully enjoying the green color of the freshly germinated seed. Several garden weeds are dying back. Mums are flowering and showing off their color. Maples, as well as other fall foliage, are showing off their beautiful fall color as well. Visit the Horticulture e-Newsletter for more information on some of the reasons these trees have color.
While some of our favorite landscape items are full of life and color, there are a handful of plants in the landscape that have entered dormancy or have died back. Not only have they lost their leaves or blooms, they may be ready for cutbacks. If you had annuals planted in the landscape, they may have recently died back from the recent freezing temperatures we experienced throughout Kansas. They will need to be removed from the landscape. Fall is an important time to perform a garden clean-up. For more specific information on perennial cutbacks, visit the Horticulture e-Newsletter for their recent post.
Want to know what to do with all of those leaves? Here is a previous blog post about Mow-mulching fall leaves.
It is also not too late to plant Spring-Flowering Bulbs. As long as the soil
temperatures >40 degrees Fahrenheit, the spring bulbs should continue to develop. For more information, read the article "There is Still Time to Plant Spring Flowering Bulbs" on the Horticulture e-Newsletter blog.
After you've completed cutbacks and bulb planting, mulching is an important task to be completed in the Fall. Not only does it "freshen" up landscape beds, it helps to retain soil moisture and protect the roots of plantings for the winter months ahead.
In addition to all of these Fall tasks, it is also important to consider general clean-up tasks that include:
- Power-washing exterior of buildings and/or structures, as well as driveways or sidewalks
- Container/planter re-fresh: Remove dead plantings from containers or planters. Empty used soil out of containers and store containers in a warmer/dry place. This can reduce cracking and general wear/tear.
- Remove dead weeds from landscape
- Remove fallen leaves/debris within landscape, and add to compost bin
- Unscrew hose, and place hose-bib covers over hose bibs in preparation for freezing temperatures
- Cover or store exterior furniture. Store cushions, umbrellas, etc.
This may seem like a lot of fall tasks to consider, but they are all important tasks to keep your landscape(s) looking beautiful during the fall and winter seasons. Hopefully this helps you develop your Fall clean-up program or builds onto an existing clean-up program for your landscape and garden.

Teoh Cheng Siang was installed as the new President for the Rotary Club of Johor Bahru (RCJB) at the Annual Installation Dinner, replacing Datuk Teo Shiok Fu for Rotary year 2018-2019.
The Johor royal family has always been a strong supporter of the Rotary Club and gracing the installation event was the Tengku Temenggong Johor YAM Tunku Idris Ibni Sultan Ibrahim.
"It has been a great honour and privilege to serve as the 66th President for RY2017-18 from 1st July 2017 to 30th June 2018. My team and I had a busy and active year carrying out various community service projects, improving the lives of the needy and underprivileged in our community with a focus on children's welfare, education and environment," said outgoing President Datuk Teo Shiok Fu.
With the installation as the 67th President of RCJB and the introduction of a new theme which is to "Be the Inspiration", Teoh said, "I am deeply honoured and privileged to have been elected as the 67th President of this great club, and pledge to "Be the Inspiration" to lead the club members in projects to improve the lives of the needy in the community and enjoy the fun and fellowship of being a Rotarian."
