AbstractThis survey assessed Canadians' political attitudes and voting behavior prior to the 2000 federal election. The survey included three components: the Campaign-Period Survey (CPS), the Post-Election Survey (PES), and the Mail-Back Survey (MBS). Approximately 46 percent of the telephone numbers included in the CPS were completed for a total of 3,651 interviews. Seventy-eight percent, or 2,860 of the CPS respondents, completed the PES survey, and 1,517 of the PES respondents completed the MBS. The CPS respondents were queried on their voting intentions, interest in the election and its media coverage, whether parties/candidates had contacted them during the campaign, the state of the economy, knowledge of the parties and leaders, personal stances on major policy issues such as cutting taxes, maintaining social programs, and the possible separation of Quebec from Canada, assessment of the Liberal government, and electoral expectations. Specific questions on political actions and personal character were posed regarding Prime Minister Jean Chretien, Conservative Party Leader Jean Charest, New Democratic Party Leader Alexa McDonough, Reform Party Leader Preston Manning, Bloc Quebecois Leader Gilles Duceppe, Premier Lucien Bouchard, and former Prime Minister Brian Mulroney. The PES repeated many of the CPS questions, and addressed additional topics such as government spending, social issues including abortion, unions, businesses, education, health care, and capital punishment, Quebec separation, and attitudes toward social groups including big business, feminists, and aboriginal peoples. The MBS dealt with broader political issues and values, including the respondents' confidence in institutions, the distribution of power among various societal groups, and individual rights. Background information on respondents includes age, sex, ethnicity, political party, political orientation, voter participation history, education, marital status, religion, employment status, household income, union membership, country of birth, knowledge of Canadian political history, financial status, and disability status.

After that, the Pt top electrode of 200-nm thickness was deposited on the specimen by DC magnetron
sputtering. The photolithography and lift-off technique were used to shape the cells into square pattern with area of 0.36 to 16 μm2. The electrical measurements of devices were performed using Agilent B1500 semiconductor parameter analyzer (Santa Clara, CA, USA). Besides, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopy were used to analyze the chemical composition and bonding of the amorphous carbon materials, respectively. Results and discussion Figure 1 shows the bipolar current–voltage (I-V) characteristics of the carbon Tubastatin A cell line memory cell in semi-logarithmic scale under DC voltage selleck products sweeping mode at room temperature. After the electroforming process (inset of Figure 1), the resistance switching behavior of the as-fabricated device can be obtained repeatedly, using DC voltage switching with a compliance current of 10 μA. By sweeping the bias from zero to negative value (about -1.5 V), the resistance state is transformed from low resistance states (LRS) to high resistance states (HRS), called as 'reset process'. Conversely, as the voltage sweeps from zero to a positive value (about 1.5 V), the resistance Selleck 4SC-202 state is turned back to LRS, called as 'set process'. During set process, a compliance current of 10 mA is applied to prevent permanent breakdown. Figure 1
Current–voltage sweeps of Pt/a-C:H/TiN memory device. To further evaluate the memory performance of amorphous carbon RRAM, the endurance and retention tests were shown in Figure 2. The resistance values of reliability and sizing effect measurement were obtained by a read voltage of 0.2 V. The device exhibits stable HRS and LRS even after more than 107 sweeping cycles (Figure 2a), which demonstrates its acceptable switching
endurance capability. The retention characteristics of HRS and LRS at oxyclozanide T = 85°C are shown in Figure 2b. No significant degradation of resistance in HRS and LRS was observed. It indicates that the device has good reliability for nonvolatile memory applications. Figure 2c reveals the resistance of LRS and HRS states with various sizes of via hole, which is independent with the electrode area of the device. According to the proposed model by Sawa [44], the resistive switching behavior in carbon RRAM is attributed to filament-type RRAM. Figure 2 Endurance (a), retention properties (b), and sizing effect measurement (c) of Pt/a-C:H/TiN memory device. To investigate the interesting phenomena, we utilized the material spectrum analyses to find out the reason of working current reduction and better stability. The sputtered carbon film was analyzed by Raman spectroscopy and the spectra revealed in Figure 3a. The broaden peak from 1,100 to 1,700 cm-1 demonstrates the existence of amorphous carbon structure [45].

No Ice Age, But... (Narrative - Dino Plot End)
As the City mended Blackgate, it collected all the dinosaurs and set them in a well-maintained preserve within the City Zoo. Here, they could roam free, the City citizens could still see them, and everyone would be safe. Plus, the City wouldn't have to keep on rebuilding.
A few prisoners had escaped from Blackgate. They were two that it had selected from elsewhere and set them in Blackgate because it thought that's where they belonged. But if the two were interested in leaving, as they had so quickly done, then the City would let them.
It was good for its citizens to do what they liked to do.

By Robert Gane – Canchones Alpacas
In discussions with alpaca breeders the world over it is often that lifestyle is quoted as the reason they first purchased alpacas. For most it is an idyllic choice. However for everyone with alpacas there comes a point when decisions need to be made:
- How to move on the alpacas we no longer necessary in their breeding programs?
- How to finance those matings or new animals that we would like to buy?
- How to realise a return on the investment already made?
It is at this point that the realisation occurs that like it or not a business is being run.
In any business, it is essential that clients are attracted and that sales are made. In difficult times like today, this may seem all too hard. In reality, it has always required focus and hard work. Even in the good times, alpaca breeders have to compete not only with each other but with other livestock and farming options. There is also a myriad of other non farming investment opportunities available.
It is therefore necessary to develop a clear understanding of what your business has to offer and how to communicate and attract the clients that you want. We need to ensure not only our individual success but that our clients are also successful. This will maintain the business over the long term and develop repeat sales into the future.
Breeders are in the alpaca industry for a variety of reasons: lifestyle, income generation, advancing the breed are but a few. By focusing your alpaca venture and developing both marketing and sales strategies, this will enable you to have the greatest options in achieving your alpaca goals.
It's with this as a background that Robert Gane of Canchones Alpacas has been running workshops in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, USA and the United Kingdom on marketing and sales strategies.
So, how do we start. Initially it is essential that you have a clear understanding of both where you are now and also of what type of business you want to have. To take stock of your current position, you need to think about and answer the following questions:
What is the description of your current herd?
- What type. Suri, Huacaya or both?
- What colour(s)?
- How many females?
- How many stud sires?
Have you made any sales in the last 12 months and if so what have you sold?
- Pregnant females?
- Stud sires?
- Shares in stud sires?
- Stud services?
- Gelded males?
If you have been selling your animals to whom have you been selling?
- New breeders establishing a herd
- Existing breeders sourcing genetics
- Pet buyers
- People wanting a fleece herd but not interested in breeding
- New owners looking for high quality animals where price was not the focus?
- Existing owners wanting to upgrade their animals or to own a stud sire?
What do you do currently to promote your animals?
There is a large range of activities available to the alpaca breeder to promote their alpaca farm and stock to potential clients. Listed below are just a few:
- Specialist alpaca magazines
- General smallholder magazines
- Main stream agricultural publications or local press
- Internet via personal alpaca farm website
- Local agricultural shows and events,
- Specialist alpaca shows and events
- Promotional email campaigns
- Hosting talks and informational sessions
- Hosting introductory alpaca days.
Any occasion that enable breeders to talk to and interact and build rapport with interested parties will prove valuable. These options are really only limited to your imagination and all are worth at least trying once.
Describing your alpaca farm
The single biggest challenge for most breeders is to elucidate a description that describes the business that they want. Ideally it should be a succinct phrase that will be used on an ongoing basis as the catch phrase for the business. This is the description that we want to spring into the minds of the person we are talking to once we introduce ourselves and what alpaca farm we are from.
If you are not able to put your business into simple terms, how can you expect to communicate your alpaca farmalpaca farm effectively in a crowded market and how can you expect others to identify and find you.
Now that a clearer understanding of the current state of your alpaca business has been developed, it is necessary to develop a marketing plan to promote the business.
Developing and implementing the Marketing Plan
The first step in any marketing plan is to identify the breeding goals for your herd and a direction for your business. It is essential to have clear breeding goals and to be able to communicate these as these goals will ultimately produce the "product" that will be on offer. This plan should reflect your future breeding goals.
Your marketing is unlikely to be successful unless your breeding goals and marketing are aligned.
The objective of marketing is to create the environment into which you wish to sell. The better this environment, the greater the sales potential and the easier it is to sell.
On developing the Marketing Plan it is essential to realise that it is not a static document. It is vitally important to review it on an ongoing basis. You should review marketing objectives and update them every two to three years (at a minimum) so that your business can take action rather than react to a changing situation. This will result in you having greater control.
Also while you may be tempted to do everything, the narrower the focus of your business, the more effective and easier it will be to market. With this in mind, breeders are therefore encouraged to identify and develop a niche in which they can operate. Some examples are as follows:
- Elite quality white huacayas
- Coloured suris
- Black Huacaya or Suri
- The pet or companion market.
- The fleece herd market
No matter what area you choose to operate in, it is necessary to identify your target clients and markets. The size and potential of these markets will be dependant on the current size of the niche and your ability to grow the niche. Some examples are:
- New entrants to the alpaca industry
- Existing breeders looking to build up their herd numbers
- Breeders wishing to improve the quality of their animals
- Clients wanting stud sire services
- Breeders seeking particular genetic traits
- Breeders wanting to buy show winning animals
- International alpaca markets
- Investors
- Existing clients wanting an additional animal or mating
Having identified the target market, the question is how to reach it. Each market segment needs to be approached differently.
New breeders can be reached through shows, smallholder magazines and trade displays. At shows, e-mail addresses should be collected from genuinely interested parties and then contact maintained in a friendly rather than pushy way. Adverts in specialised alpaca magazines are more likely to reach those looking for stud sires, genetics or to build up their herds. Websites are only useful if they are up to date, informative and functional. E-mails can be sent out encouraging people to visit your web site.
Farm open days can be very effective and can be advertised at shows and displays and those showing interest can be invited to attend. Open farm days are more about selling then marketing.
Sponsorship is an excellent method of promotion, enabling the breeder to be photographed with an elite animal and their name then associated with excellence.
A very important part of marketing is brand image with the image representing what the breeder wants to do. It is essential that the colour, font, design and logo are consistent across the brand, from the brochure and business card to adverts and clothing worn at events. This is important to increase brand recognition and recall.
A by-line (or catch phrase) describing the business, such as 'excellence and luxury', "fine black alpaca" is helpful to make the image memorable. Your branding should reflect the specific characteristics of your business in order to attract those who are most likely to become customers. This self selection or self filtering has an enormous ability to increase the effectiveness of your interactions. There is no point attracting potential clients interested in breeding white huacayas if you are breeding grey suri.
Advertisements can be used to strengthen the branding rather than simply trying to sell specific animals or products. It is recommended you study different advertisements to identify why some work and others don't. For advertisements to be successful, the message must be consistent and the same style retained to develop and re-inforce product recognition. The advert also has to reflect what is being sold to again enable self selection by potential clients. Showing an advert to an independent person can be useful as they can tell you what message is coming across and you can decide if this is the message you want to deliver.
Branding begins with the herd or alpaca farm name. Herd names that are easy to say, spell and find on a list are beneficial. Using location names as a herd name can be detrimental if you move to another location in the future. Herd names also need to be unique and different enough from other names to build their own identity.
Alpacas are often owned in partnership (by spouses) and developing a marketing plan can ensure that both parties agree on the direction of their alpaca business. The planning process can assist in negotiating this agreement.
The development of a sales strategy based on your new marketing plane will be covered in another article.

Barrel Distortion
October 19, 2009
- Barrel distortion
- In "barrel distortion", image magnification decreases with distance from the optical axis. The apparent effect is that of an image which has been mapped around a sphere. Fisheye lenses, which take hemispherical views, utilize this type of distortion as a way to map an infinitely wide object plane into a finite image area.

LAND partnership concludes, Land-at-Scale commences
In early 2020, the highly successful LAND partnership was finalised. It was a partnership between Kadaster and the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs that focused on igniting Fit-For-Purpose Land Administration. The wrap-up followed four years and 30 short-term engagements completed across multiple country contexts.
The aim of LAND
The aim of this partnership was to improve legal certainty, stimulate economic development, fight poverty, contribute to post-conflict/post-disaster recovery, contribute to gender equality and help prevent (environmental) criminality. Attached you will find the LAND programme summary.
Land-at-Scale programme
Building from the momentum and awareness surrounding the LAND partnership, the Land-at-Scale programme is now defined and initiated by the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs, executed by the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO). The new programme has a focus on scaling-up land sector initiatives and networks. In 2019 Kadaster signed a framework contract with RVO in order to give a substantial contribution to this programme.
FIG Working Week 2021 - save the date
FIG and the Dutch Local Organizing Committee are happy to welcoming you in the Netherlands for the FIG Working Week 2021.
Save the date: June 21 - June 25, 2021
The Working Week will take place at the Jaarbeurs in the historical town of Utrecht in the central part of the Netherlands.
FIG Working Week is a conference that brings the international community of surveying and spatial professionals together to discuss key challenges of our time within the surveying profession with fellow peers.
More information can be found on FIG.net.
Delivery of land titles in post-conflict area in Colombia
A total of 290 families will receive their property title and legal certainty. This is part of the project 'Land in Peace'. The Dutch embassy and Kadaster are working together with the Colombian authorities on fast and affordable registration of land ownership.
"A title to your own house and plot is vital for the residents of our place"
Argenis Romero is one of the 14 women who received her title: "A title to your own house and plot is vital for the residents of our place. Hopefully this is the prelude to land titles for all our residents. God bless you!"
Fast and participative land registration
On April 28, an important agreement was signed between the Colombian Land Registry (IGAC), the Dutch Embassy in Bogotá and the Netherlands' Kadaster. The agreement contributes to the development of a fast, transparent and multifunctional land registry in Colombia. With the Dutch Fit-for-Purpose method, the local population does most of the work themselves. Because of this, they have confidence in the data collected, they agree with the boundaries of their lots and their neighbors, and ownership of the land can be formalized. This provides families with legal certainty about their previously informal property.
Dutch ambassador Jeroen Roodenburg on the importance of the land titles:
"For the Dutch government, the issue of land administration is the key to better rural development in Colombia. Our question was, how can we contribute to make it more efficient, safer and more affordable, especially for low-income Colombians? The residents of rural areas, including farmers and ethnic communities, need legal security of their properties to have easier access to, for example, credit, agricultural insurance or other tools to invest in productive projects. "
More about the Land in Peace project
Within the framework of the Colombian-Dutch project 'Tierra en Paz' (Land in Peace), successful pilots have now been carried out in three regions with 'Fit for Purpose' and property titles are ready.

Continuation of cooperation on the Western Balkans
Strengthen Professional Access To Information About Land
The follow-up project aims to further Strengthen Professional Access To Information About Land (SPATIAL II) in the Western Balkan region. In total eight National Mapping and Cadastre and Land Registry Authorities (NMCA's) from 6 countries are involved: Albania, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Kosovo, North Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia.
Focus on bilateral technical assistance
The project focuses on bilateral technical assistance for each of the NMCA's, as well as on regional activities, such as regional workshops and study visits. This will support strengthening the role of the NMCA's towards becoming more reliable, inclusive and democratic government bodies. The project started with a workshop in February on the Integrated Geospatial Information Framework (IGIF). The IGIF will serve as overall guidance for both the bilateral and regional support.

Important agreement with Colombian cadastre
The Memorandum of Understanding with IGAC (Instituto Geográfico Agustín Codazzi) is an agreement on achieving land registration with fast, affordable, transparent and participatory methods. Kadaster cooperates with IGAC in one of the most remote regions of the country: Cumaribo. A municipality 1.5 times bigger than the Netherlands, with a predominantly indigenous population of 30,000 people. The region is heavily affected by the armed conflict.
Virtual signing
The signing took place virtual - due to the lock down situation in Colombia - by the Dutch Ambassador Jeroen Roodenburg, the director of IGAC Olga Lucía López and Chair of the Executive Board of Kadaster Frank Tierolff. Frank Tierolff: "Cadastral information is key in the Peace Process since it is of great importance for rural development and land security. I am very proud that after a fruitful collaboration between IGAC, Kadaster and the Netherlands embassy, we can now formalize our friendship and mutual dedication for our profession, in this Memorandum."
Importance of rural land reform
Kadaster plays a significant role in Colombian land reforms, thanks to the Land in Peace project that has been running here since several years. After the Colombian peace accords in 2016 ended a long during armed conflict, rural land reform became the principal point of the peace agreement. Therefore, it is crucial to get a land-covering register of the entire country.
Only a small part of land is formalized
Currently, only a small part of Colombian land is formalized. Cadastral maps are outdated or incorrect, or they simply lack - especially in post conflict areas. At the current pace it will take centuries to realise tender security for all. The Netherlands help Colombians land tenure with Kadaster' expertise on Fit-for-Purpose land administration.

This is not the first time Kadaster signed a MoU in Columbia. Previously Kadaster already signed a MoU in Colombia with the National Register of Property (SNR), the Land Agency (ANT) and the Universidad Distrital in Bogotá.
Implementation of the national GESTERRA programme in Mozambique
Technical assistance in transition phase
The challenge for the national land agency DINAT is to register a total of 5 million parcels between 2020 and 2025. Kadaster is providing technical assistance in the transition phase towards the start of the GESTERRA II programme. The support is focussing on the organisation (planning, budgeting and IT) and developing the fit-for-purpose procedures in land registration and related Capacity building (train the trainers). In 2019 and 2020 the support concentrates on the ICT Organisation and Institutional development.
In 2019 two devastating hurricanes hit Mozambique. This has a huge impact on land administration procedures. Innovative land tools are needed to document and restore already existing people-to-land relationships as now effected by the cyclones. The location of the people, their houses and temporary shelters as well as their related supporting livelihood need to be identified. A gender-sensitive and inclusive (women, youth, orphans, elderly and marginalised groups) validation, through the community, will ensure the quality of the collected data. Temporary, qualified, or 're-starter' land certificates will be issued and handed over to ensure the access to reconstruction grants and the reestablishment of livelihood.
Intended results
A sustainable, autonomous National Land Registry, ready to execute the GESTERRA program and being the trusted party for Mozambican land users and land partners.
A sustainable Land Information System with clear procedures in land registration and agreed service level agreements in IT and IT systems.
DINAT staff and service providers are aware of fit for purpose principles and prepared to transfer all related knowledge.
Results so far
In 2018 the fit for purpose procedures were tested in designated pilot areas. The testing focussed on data collection methodologies and related IT (collector) interface applications. Support has been given in developing a strategy in executing the GESTERRA project and engaging the WB support from 2019.
A training needs assessment was done and a first draft of a Training Toolkit was delivered. This Training Toolkit will be perfected and finished in 2020.
Specific attention was given on IT and IT applications. The interface with the data collection application is now operational.
Duration of the project
1 January 2018 – 31 December 2020

Strengthening Professional Access To Information About Land
Sharing knowledge and experiences
More than 20 regional workshops were organized in which each of the participating organisations shared their experiences and knowledge on the selected theme of the workshop. Kadaster facilitated round table discussions and the definition of quick wins and actions for each organisation. The workshops, with over 240 participants, have strengthened the regional network, creating better understandings of the addressed topics.
North Macedonia
The cooperation between the Agency for Real Estate Cadastre (AREC) of North Macedonia and Kadaster focused on three topics: implementation of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI) Strategy; development of the Address Registry; and updating of the Topographic Maps.
The cooperation between the Republic Geodetic Authority (RGA) of Serbia and Kadaster focused on drafting the NSDI strategy and legislation; support for mass property valuation; strengthening institutional and organisational capacity on Open Data, Key Registers; and becoming a more service oriented organisation.
Bosnia–Herzegovina, Kosovo, Montenegro and Albania
For Bosnia–Herzegovina, Kosovo, Montenegro and Albania emphasis was placed understanding the organisational and technological state-of-play. This was achieved through organising regional workshops, focussing on themes related to spatial data.
Goals for future cooperation
After 27 months, we have a good understanding of the status of all 8 agencies, their needs and their wishes for future cooperation with the Netherlands. The aim is to continue the cooperation and further strengthen professional access to information about land at both national and regional level. In 2020 the cooperation will continue in a new project: SPATIAL II.
Duration of the project
1 January 2017 - 31 March 2019

Impact of COVID-19 on land administration sector
A lot of people have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic – perhaps directly through their own health or the health of those they know, or more indirectly through loss of work or income. And let us not forget the various lockdowns. What does this all mean for the land administration sector?
Interesting article on GIM International
Members of Kadaster International wrote an article published by GIM International, that explores the relevance of the land administration sector, disaster risk management and spatial information in the context of the coronavirus outbreak.
Improving modern land registration in Indonesia

New Publication: Fit-for-Purpose Land Administration for All
The report answers pressing questions and shows how surveyors can get involved at local, national, and global levels to support FFPLA initiatives and the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
FFPLA works but 1 barrier still to overcome
The original FFPLA concept and guidelines were published in 2014 and 2015. Since then, actions aimed at igniting and implementing FFPLA at country level have shown the global land administration community that FFPLA works, and can directly support the achievement of the SDGs. Despite the success, one significant barrier still needs to be overcome: the better inclusion of private sector surveyors, and the broader private sector community, including lawyers, conveyancers and notaries.
Opportunity, not a threat
To truly deliver the benefits of FFPLA at national scale, FFPLA should be seen as an opportunity rather than a threat to government, communities, NGOs, CSO, and the private sectors .
In response, this report speaks directly to the concerns and claims collected in expert groups, pilots, workshops and discussions. It presents counter claims and evidence from a growing body of documented applications, pilots, lessons and success stories.

The impact of the COVID-19 virus on Kadaster International
All staff are now working from home, using the available technology to stay in contact with each other, and with our colleagues and partners worldwide. But as you understand, for the moment it is not possible to continue our activities in the same way as you're used to. We are in close contact with all our project partners and professional networks to adapt to the situation as best as possible.
Still, our ambition to contribute to the 2030 agenda, and the sustainable development of land rights for all, remains our drive and professional compass - perhaps now even more than ever. Where possible, we will continue to provide advisory services from a distance and maintain the networks we are in. Also, we are using this time of crisis to contribute as much as possible to webinars, to develop MOOC's, and to publish our knowledge and experiences in Fit for Purpose Land Administration and Geospatial Information Management.
This global crisis affects our lives and way of working today, but also in the future. Together we will overcome this crisis. We will continue to promote global cooperation, sustainable and fair land administration, and the effective use of geospatial information. Don't hesitate to contact us for questions, cooperation or advice.

Women's land rights: Small initiatives have huge impact
When women control the land
On average, 43% of the agricultural labour force in developing countries consist of women. Yet women rarely own or control land or enjoy tenure security. The land they own is generally smaller and less productive than land owned by men. Although research shows that families are better fed, better educated and healthier when women control the land.
Making an impact at local and global level
Eva-Maria enjoys to combine field work with the development of global policies: "Giving training on land inclusiveness in remote, mountainous areas in Nepal or encouraging equal land rights in the jungle of Sumatra. And then ensuring that these experiences and insights support decision makers and get integrated into global policy development. That's what I love about my job."
The importance of land in people's lives
"In Nepal, I realised how people's daily concerns are closely related to the land. For many of them, agriculture is their only source of income. This is their way of life and how they for example secure their children's education. Without land ownership, communities have no security at all and this keeps them, especially women, vulnerable and traps them in a cycle of poverty."
Increasing participation
"As female engineers we can bring a different perspective and thus innovation to areas like land administration. For example, I aim to increase women's participation in our project activities. Some women are hesitant, or even not allowed, to talk to my male colleagues and more easily open up to me. We also involve women surveyors, schedule meetings in the evening (after children's bedtime), take gender into account while collecting data and think about the language we use. All these measures increase participation of women and hence improve project results and support the 2030 Agenda on Sustainable Development."
Be the change
"Kadaster, with women and men in the board, enforces the "gender equality matters" message. It's up to every one of us to live equality and equity on a daily base."
Colombian mayors learn about Fit-for-Purpose land administration
At the end of 2019, elections took place in Colombia and 1100 new mayors were elected. The ESAP academic institute (Escuela Superior de Administración Pública) organised a meeting for the new mayors. At this meeting, the Kadaster International team in Colombia presented the Land in Peace project and introduced the new mayors and 35 new governors to the Fit-for-Purpose approach by showing them the Youtube video Land in Peace project in Colombia.
Municipalities interested in transparent, fast and participatory approach
During the first three months of their term, the mayors and governors are requested to submit a municipal development plan that also includes cadastral policy. Several municipalities have already requested more information about Land in Peace and it is expected that more mayors will be interested to further learn about this transparent, fast and participatory approach to land administration.
Land in Peace project
Up to 60% of the rural population in Colombia does not have legal proof of ownership over their land. At the current pace, it will take centuries to realise tender security for all. The Land in Peace project aims at speeding up the process by applying the Fit-for-Purpose method: the farmers themselves walk along the borders of their land with a GPS to demarcate their plot.

Towards a digitised citizen-oriented Armenian cadastre
Modern and broad service
In Armenia there is currently no unified approach to archive cadastral and land registry records. The integrated cadastre on real estate has little ability to support management and assessment of lands and real estate, and the registration of the natural, economic and legal status of those lands. The CC plans to reform by introducing an advanced self-service and paperless system, based on electronic registration and information processes. This digital system will be one of the pillars of the new real estate cadastre. Digitisation will have a positive influence on the functioning of the Armenian Government and the private sector. Databases for e-Governance will serve as a foundation for a modern and broader service provision of the Government of Armenia, which in turn will have a positive effect on corruption reduction and Government accountability.
Dutch support
CC has asked the Netherlands, and specifically Kadaster, for support with digitisation of its archives. The project is supported by the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO). In October 2019, Kadaster and CC experts exchanged experiences during a TAIEX expert mission in Yerevan. The interactive meetings gave valuable insights in the current situation and also demonstrated the strong ambition and willingness of CC staff to digitise the complete archives.
Project start
In the coming years Kadaster will support CC with the digitisation strategy and implementation. The project starts with detailed assessment of both the existing archives and related documents, as well as the systems and processes used to manage them. Also the experts of CC will have the opportunity to visit the Netherlands.

Renewal of cadastral legislation for Curaçao
Legal fragmentation hampers practical and judicial operations
On 10-10-10 Curaçao became a country within the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Since then, the cadastre of Curaçao has operated as an independent foundation. Current legislation is fragmented due to multiple laws and regulations, some dating as far back as 1868. This legal fragmentation sometimes hampers practical and judicial operations
Kadaster assists
Our Curaçao counterpart asked Kadaster to assist in drawing and renewing the new cadastral legislation. In January, we visited our colleagues in Curaçao to investigate what is needed. In addition to legislative renewal, the cadastre of Curaçao wants to invest the distribution of geographic information, including a digital dataset incorporating buildings and addresses. In the future, both datasets will be part of a national spatial data infrastructure for Curaçao.

LADM and Gender
Women's rights are overlooked
In previous workshops, it was observed that the current version does not accommodate women's land and use rights in an inclusive and adequate way. Overlapping or secondary land use rights are often lost through formal land registration. As a consequence, women's rights are overlooked when registered. Without these rights being recorded and registered, many women's livelihoods cannot prosper accordingly.
Gender attributes should reflect various relationships to land
It was concluded that LADM functionalities should be altered to document both primary and secondary land rights. Furthermore, the required gender attributes should not be limited to women, but should reflect and acknowledge various relationships to land.
Land Administration Domain Model
LADM is available since 1 December 2012. It covers basic information-related components of land administration including those over land, in water, below the surface and above the ground.

Digital archiving in Jordan
Starting point
The Department of Lands and Survey (DLS) has a long experience in computerisation. Paper based transactions in the DLS are processed digital in a parallel workflow since two decades. Also the scanning of documents wasn't a new activity for DLS. Based upon an earlier recommendation after a twinning project, a new workflow is already (and successfully) introduced in the Amman Registration Office.
Project results
This project has defined a roadmap for the next step in the computerisation of the core of the administration which is the White Sheet ledger: the legal property registration.
The computerisation as described in the roadmap will have benefits on the efficiency and reliability of the real estate market and with that on the economy and society as a whole. It will improve transparency of the government. This fits to the intention of the state to achieve paperless government by the year 2020.
The roadmap describes how to protect the existing archives, both maps and deeds; how to improve the quality of the archives, both maps and deeds; how to integrate digital archives, both maps and deeds, in the internal workflows and how to: integrate digital archives, both maps and deeds, in the external workflows.

Land in Peace project in Colombia
The role of the land register in the project
Three years ago, the armed conflicted ended between the Colombian government and the rebellion group FARC. The detriment on – mainly – the countryside of Colombia is immense. A good land administration is essential for building a civil state, because peasants without title are in vulnerable position, sensitive to become victim of land grabbing and not in the possibility to invest in their land or equipment, as only a land title gives access to bank credits.
Intended results
It is estimated that up to 60% of the rural population does not have legal proof of ownership over their land, which corresponds to roughly 10 million rural parcels. With our innovative, transparent and participatory Fit-for-Purpose methodology, rural land regularization can be speeded up considerably, fulfilling an important goal in the Colombian peace agreement: securing land rights and rural development.
Envisaged outcomes
- Demonstrate alternative (rapid and effective) methods for land administration in pilot areas
- Formulate a national rollout plan for rapid and effective land administration
- A relevant contribution to improve the effectiveness of the cooperation
- Development of capacity for the maintenance of the cadastre and registry at the municipal level
Results so far
We are doing pilots in various communities in three regions in the country. This has led to data collection and public inspections of several hundreds of parcels. The first 17 land titles were handed out by the Colombian Minister of Agriculture and the Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte in November 2018. Beside from the technical tests, we are working on diplomatic scale to make political impact that could lead to methodology change in the current land administration policy. High level politicians and various Ministries have shown their great interest for the Land In Peace project.

Unlocking land potential Vietnam
Improving legislation and land information system for land consolidation
The General Department of Land Administration (GDLA) is part of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment (MONRE). As the responsible agency, GDLA prepares legislation about land and land policies for the country and is responsible for the implementation of the cadastral system including land register, cadastral mapping, cadastral documentation, land tenure certificate issuance, and land record system update. GDLA is the main counterpart in our project regarding our support for renewal of the Land Law and its decrees.
Activities focus on:
- Providing advice on integrating land consolidation practice into law and regulations
- Sharing expertise about land consolidation based on experience in the Netherlands
- Reflect and advise on the role of land consolidation in the system of land use planning and land administration (e.g. land administration systems and tools for land consolidation)
Expertise will be shared in a couple of short dedicated missions for training, reviewing legislation and giving examples of land consolidation and the results for agricultural development in specific and rural development in general.

Leicester City
James Maddison's record-breaking statistic shows exactly why Tottenham Hotspur should pounce
James Maddison was linked with Tottenham last summer.
In his first season in the Premier League, James Maddison has enjoyed a tremendous campaign. After leaving Norwich City to join Leicester City last summer, Maddison has made the step up with aplomb.
The ex-Coventry City starlet joined Leicester ahead of Tottenham Hotspur last summer. According to The Evening Standard, Mauricio Pochettino pulled the plug on this deal because of his lack of experience in the top-flight.
But after proving himself for the Foxes, Spurs are unsurprisingly back in the hunt. According to The Times, Tottenham want Maddison to replace Christian Eriksen but might need to pay twice the £22m fee Leicester spent last summer.
But one statistic in particular shows just why Spurs need to pounce. According to Opta Stats, Maddison has created 100 goalscoring opportunities for team-mates in the Premier League this term.
He breaks a six-year-long wait for an Englishman to create 100-plus chances in one season. Everton left-back Leighton Baines was the last man to achieve this in the 2012/13 season.
Maddison ended this campaign with seven goals and seven assists. The England U21 international is surely knocking on the door for a senior national call-up now.
And a move to Spurs could help take his career to the next level. The 22-year-old created 100 chances and only seven were converted. But Harry Kane, Son Heung-Min, Lucas Moura and the other Spurs stars would surely help improve Maddison's figures.

Hello ZK team ,
We have scan zk.jar of version 5.0.6 version in DCT scan it is showing vulnerability for files zk.jar\web\js\zk\ext\jquery.js and zk.jar\web\js\zk\ext\jquery.src.js and if we scan zk.jar of version 126.96.36.199 version then also it is showing vulnerability for same files zk.jar\web\js\zk\ext\jquery.js and zk.jar\web\js\zk\ext\jquery.src.js
how can we upgrade jquery version to 3.4.1 in zk jar. For jQuery versions before 3.4.0 all versions are coming in vulnerable list.
Can you please guide us on this situation ? Can you please let us know in which version of zk jquery version 3.4.1 is used ?

answered 2019-09-05 12:35:24 +0800cor3000
jquery 3.4.1 is not used in any ZK version yet. ZK 9 will contain 1.12.4 ZK-3719
If it was that simple we would have already done it... sorry but as of now there's no simple upgrade approach.
However for your custom JS needs it is possible to use another jquery versions side by side ZK's internal version.
ZK 5.0.6 is quite old, you should also consider upgrading your ZK version in order to get additional bugfixes (including important and even critical security fixes).

FDA withdraws biosimilar draft guidance following public comments
Click Here to Manage Email Alerts
The FDA has withdrawn a draft guidance intended to provide advice for biosimilar sponsors regarding the determination of similarity between the biosimilar and its reference product, following public comments raising questions about its effects on biosimilar development, according to a press release.
"One of the central aspects of biosimilar development and approval is the analytical studies performed to demonstrate that a biosimilar is highly similar to the reference product," Scott Gottlieb, MD, commissioner of the FDA, said in the statement. "We're taking a fresh look at our draft recommendations for evaluating analytical studies in order to ensure our guidance takes into consideration the most current and relevant science."
According to the FDA, the original draft guidance, "Statistical Approaches to Evaluate Analytical Similarity," issued in September 2017, raised concerns about its impact on the cost and efficiency of biosimilar development. In particular, comments submitted to the FDA questioned the number of reference product lots the guidance would have recommended biosimilar developers sample in their evaluation of high similarity, as well as the statistical methods for this evaluation.
The FDA added that it believes addressing these issues will help the organization better promote a more efficient pathway for biosimilar development.
"Biosimilars foster competition and can lower the cost of biologic treatments for patients, yet the market for these products is not advancing as quickly as I hoped," Gottlieb said in the release. "I believe that the FDA can do more to support the development of biosimilars, as well as promote the market acceptance of these products. As the cost to develop a single biosimilar product can reach hundreds of millions of dollars, it's important that we advance policies that help make the development of biosimilar products more efficient, and patient and provider acceptance more certain."
In the statement, the FDA said it plans to issue draft guidance that will "reflect state-of-the-art techniques" in the review of analytical data to determine whether a proposed biosimilar is highly similar to a reference product. In addition, the goal of any future draft guidance will be to address the challenges faced by biosimilar sponsors in designing studies aimed at demonstrating high similarity, the FDA said. Guidance will also provide "appropriate flexibility" for sponsors, with the goal of spurring efficient biosimilar development "without compromising the agency's rigorous scientific standards for evaluating marketing applications," the press release stated.
In addition, the FDA said it is encouraging sponsors of proposed biosimilars to continue discussing product development plans with the agency, including efforts regarding the evaluation of similarity data.
"We'll continue to work directly with biosimilar developers on their programs as we develop new draft guidance in this area," Gottlieb said in the release. "By supporting the more efficient development of biosimilars over the long term and helping reduce barriers to bringing these products to market, we can help ensure patients get access to affordable, safe and effective treatment options."

She wore one of the most happiest and beautiful smiles ever seen by man. Without any doubt, she was, in her poor state, very contented with the way life was for her. She lived in Central with her husband, Christopher, but had no children to care for. She was best known for her dancing in the street, and carrying a good-size bamboo basket on her head without a hand on it. She wasn't a woman of mixed up mood and attitudes, but of faith and love for life in general. For one thing, her dress code was always the long white frock. Her head was always rapped up with a huge piece of colorful cloth around it. Her strength, for the old lady she was, was actually equal to that of a younger person. It was enormous to say the least. She'd never shown a sign of sickness, except for the common cold. Indeed, she was one woman of a kind in her time.
Miss Donce had a great personality. She was the kind of woman, who made everyone laugh with her silly old jokes. There had seemed to never be a dull moment in her life. For her, life was always good the way it was. She didn't have to know who you were to crack a joke with you. Fame and fortune was not in her world, but laughter was never missing from it. Apparently, the tamarind was her favorite fruit. She always had a few tamarind to offer to the kids in her neighborhood, and to the adults on their way to Boopland, an estate that was in the vicinity where she lived, to by the grapefruit. Well, I must admit that the tamarind she gave out were the most sour ones ever! But, her giving of the fruit was pure, and came straight from her heart.
Miss Donce was a regular visitor with the City of St. George's, but she didn't have a job, nor sold anything in the Market Square Market. Everyday, she travelled on the wooden bus called, 'Comfort', to get to the City of St. George's. She had a special seat on the bus. An occupant of that seat on the bus had to give it up to her, like it was a special seat for the handicap. But, she was no handicap person. No one had a problem in giving up the seat to her, because they knew who Miss Dounce was very well. Many people day was made when Miss Dounce was around. She was a real fun all day.
Miss Dounce carried a bamboo basket with her everywhere she went. Having a unique technique, she used it superbly, to carry the basket on her head, without holding it in place with her hands. The basket stayed well in place; it never fell off her head, even when she danced.
Miss Dounce was a great dancer, with the bamboo basket on her head. All the dancing that she did was without any music playing while she danced. She'd a steady rhythm, and beat on which she grooved on. She was spectacularly aware of every move she made while she danced. And the small crowd that'd gathered around enjoyed every moment of it.
Miss Dounce was not a rum drinker as some women in Gouyave was. Instead she smoked a black brand of tobacco in a white pipe as often as she could've possibly done. She never got weary of it. I didn't know what the tobacco was doing for her, but she knew why she smoked it.
Still, Miss Dounce was a perfect lady. Like many of the other ladies in Gouyave, she had all the qualities in her to be called a lady. She kept herself neat and clean as a whistle, day in and day out.
Miss Dounce did look like an aspiring actress and model, but any channels to put her in that place was not possible to come by in the times in which she lived. But, still, she entertained Gouyave and some other parts of Grenada with some of the most spectacular dancing in the street.
The times in which Miss Dounce lived is long gone. But they were some of the most happy days that we, as children had. Funny it is now, that those days are gone away from the world today forever, and ever. It's nothing more now, than a memory.
Miss Dounce is undoubtedly one of these memories that'll last with Gouyave, even as times have changed dramatically, over the years.
HEY Daniel I remember miss Dounce,and all her dancing,with her gaget on her head,LOL,most of what u said about miss dounce is true,about where she use to get the tamarind,you remember there was a big tamarind tree next to the old ANGLICAN SCHOOL ,the tree was on the right hand side just before you enter the Pasture,thats where I think miss dounce use to get Tamarind, THINK SO,
I remember the tamarind tree you mentioned here. I believe that it was the shortest of all the tamarind trees I've ever seen in Gouyave. I also remember Miss Dounce being a regular passerby, in that area where the tamarind tree was. So, I believe you when you said that the tamarind she gave away did come from there.
Miss Dounce did live on a big piece of land, but on that piece of land was no tamarind trees, except for the cocoa tree and other kinds of trees which bore fruits but they weren't edible.
By the way, do you remember the tamarind tree that was on the premises of the St. Rose Convent? It was right up on top of the hill next to the house where the nuns lived. A lot of school children used to go up there to pick up the tramarind, after they had dropped off the tree. None of the children were chased off the land by the nuns. Although that piece of land was private property, the nun, who were all foreigners, didn't mind the children trespassing on it.Those were some of the good times we had as chidren growing up in Gouyave. And, too, that's when love used to be living here. Everyone could've counted on it.
Sadly, love don't live here anymore. No one these days is counting on it.
What a shame. A burning shame!
YEP I remember that tree as well,dont forget it was MR REX who lived there first and ar lot of people was afraid to venture there (Cause words was around that mr REX had GUNS LOL,LOL.
Now, you really got me with that one! I can't recall hearing the name, Mr. Rex. Guns were a thing everyone was afraid of in those days. Especially the kids.
When I was a little boy, I'd witnessed the shooting of a black dog, by a police officer. The dog was owned by Miss Muzzie, on Upper Depardine Street. It was said that the dog had rabbis (sp), so they called in the police to shoot the dog. A big, tall, and fat, all in one, Lol! police officer called, Christopher, came to where the dog was. He discussed the situation with the owner of the dog, and came to the conclusion that the dog must be killed. The police officer drew his pistol from his waist and shot the dog. The dog died instantly.
There were a few kids on the scene. When the police fired the shot at the dog, all the kids ran off with speed, because each one of us got scared, by the gunshot. I was uneasy about the shooting of the dog for days. I got over it after a little while, though.
But what remained with me was: what if the dog didn't have rabbis? Because it was never tested by a vet, or any thing like that, to prove indeed, that the might have been free from what they said it had.
The poor dog might've died in vain, after all.
Thanks Daniel for all the wonderful memories, the one about the shortest person especially "Wind-blow " had me going,really cracked up!
would you mind posting a photo of yourself ? just can't figure out who is Daniel Nathan Joseph,with such wonderful memories of Gouyave ..are you from De Lance?
there was a joke about Wind blow..he went by Dr.Otway(Tom-RIP) Doc told him ""he run down"he said ,"no Doc I walk"..Tom on examining him said blow...wind blow said"tut tut"..Tom said blow again ..Wind Blow said pup-pup
Thank you for your kind words. They made me feel good inside.
I would really like to tell you something about me, but this isn't the right place for that. However, I can tell you that I am from Gouyave. I will like to know who you are too. The name that you posted under is unfamiliar to me.
I couldn't laugh more than I did with your story about Wind Blow. The way you came across with it depicted Wind Blow, as he was in real life. Men like Wind Blow were the' cream-of-the-crop, with their humorous mentality and more. They gave us some of the best times of our lives.
By thee way, Wind Blow was the grandfather of two nephews of mine. They're wonderful men.
Suspect who you may be ,do you have a sister with the initial "P"
A, you're wrong with your speculation of me. Based on the age you are, it might difficult for you to pinpoint who I am, from Gouyave. None of my sisters is initial, "P".
I am from Mongo Road. Everybody in Gouyave, except for my schoolmates, knows me as Nathan.
Can you say who you are? Just asking!
That's my grandfather RIP, He was funny yes but commited no crimes RIP pa George.X
Off course yes ,enough respect..having a little laughter no disrespect meant
No disrespect at all. As I mention he was a funny man.
Miss Dounz was a very sweet lady. One song i remember her singing all the time to us, in Central at least was "oh way de tae-tae go tae tae, gimme the tae tae, go tae tae" i think i might have been between the ages of 7-10. She had lots of dogs who never saw the light of day, with their long toenails, you would often hear then scraping the floor as they ran around inside the house. Such beautiful memories has brought a tear to my eyes. I remember her smiling face very well.
"Miss Dounz" was a remarkable woman. What more, she acted like her age, in spite of how jok-i-fied (my word), she was. You remembered her extremely well, and the dogs she cared for as well. She was one of the many lovable characters from Central.
Another two strange, but dynamic characters from Central were Miss Carry, and her sister, Virginia. They couldn't agree with each other, and made the residents from Central laugh with their bickering and constant going at each other. Virginia was strange, but Miss Carry couldn't hold her mouth in check. She was the mad one out of the two.
Cental gave us some happy days. We owe it to the old people,who knew how to make someone's day, with jokes and odd saying, when they spoke.
Oh how i remember those days, she lived not to far from my house..lol.. i remember her blowing smoke in the head of children. she was absolutely an amazing lady!!
Yes, indeed. She was truely amazing!.
When I was writing the piece on Miss Dounce, I'd remembered the blowing of smoke in the head of some children, but I wasn't quite sure that Miss Dounce was the one who did it. Thanks for the memory! It was refreshing!
By the way, do you remember that Miss Dounce was featured in one of the Grenadian Newspaper? She had her basket on her head, when they photographed her. It was a beautiful photograph. In the photograph,she was wearing her favorite for the camara. Miss Dounce wasn't a bashful lady in no wayimagined.

Ruven AfanadorLike most of the world, Sam Smith can't get enough of the newly-engaged Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. The singer tells U.K.'s The Sun it would be his "dream" to sing at the wedding.
"I'm obsessed. I want to sing at the wedding," Sam says. "Oh my God I'd love to, it would be a dream."
He jokingly adds, "I'd have to wear a dress and a crown, though."
Prince Harry and Meghan are planning May 2018 nuptials, so there's still time for Sam's invite. If he doesn't get to attend in person, he'll just have to celebrate from afar — which is what he did for Prince William and Kate Middleton's 2011 wedding.
"I woke up at 6am, downed a bottle of wine and went and sat in Hyde Park," he recalls. "I was wasted the whole day, running around London with a flag."
As for his own wedding, Sam tells The Sun, "I wouldn't have a traditional ceremony. I want to have a wedding in Italy, with loads of pasta and wine. Nothing very formal, everyone in linen suits."
