Protect Your Car from External Factors
The primary aspect of auto detailing is ensuring adequate protection for your vehicle from the elements. Keeping your car in excellent shape means also protecting the paint and exterior. Part of vehicle routine maintenance should include applying a sealant or wax to your vehicle exterior. This helps to preserve your paint job and reduces the need for a costly paint job in the future. Compared to many aftermarket alternatives, the factory paint on your vehicle is higher quality, so you want to preserve it.
What is Car Detailing?
Detailing means doing a full reconditioning and cleaning of the vehicle's exterior and interior. This utilizes a precise step-by-step process to help protect your vehicle and the investment you have in it. Further, it makes it more comfortable.
Detailing services can be used for a variety of vehicle types, such as SUVs, trucks, airplanes, buses, RVs and boats.
Why Do You Need Car Detailing?
We recommend that twice a year you apply a coat or wax to your vehicle's exterior to help protect it against oxidation and various contaminants.
What to Expect from Auto Detailing Services?
Auto detailing services is a perfect way to ensure that your car is clean and comfortable. An interior detailing will leave your automobile smelling good and look nicer. Apart from offering cleanliness, an interior detailing can treat your seats and rugs with protectant, which will minimize further damage to your vehicle.
As a result of keeping your car clean and having frequent detail service done, you will be increasing your vehicle resale value. No one wants to purchase a dirty car. So remember, your automobile needs regular car detailing to look nice, be comfortable and to increase its value.

Artist: Johnny Cash
Album: The Sound of Johnny Cash
Song: "Mr. Lonesome"
The forgotten outlaw, Tompall Glaser, penned this dark tune—a sharpened dagger to the yearning soul. Songwriting this plainspoken is as timeless as the emotion it personifies. Add the heavy echo to Johnny Cash's iconic voice and behold an audible frown. You almost need to put your hands in jacket pockets to withstand the discernible cold.

Yukihiro Matsumoto, the creator of the Ruby language, talks with Bill Venners about becoming a better programmer through reading code, learning languages, focusing on fundamentals, being lazy, and considering interfaces.
Yukihiro Matsumoto, or "Matz," as he is known online, is the creator of the Ruby programming language. Ruby is an object-oriented language suitable for writing day to day scripts as well as full-scale applications. Matz began work on Ruby back in 1993, because he wanted a language that made him productive while being fun to use. Initially popular in Japan, Ruby has been finding its way into the hearts of programmers all over the world.
On September 24, 2003, Bill Venners met with Yukihiro Matsumoto at the JAOO conference in Aarhus, Denmark. In this interview, which is being published in multiple installments on Artima.com, Yukihiro Matsumoto discusses Ruby's design philosopy, the features of the Ruby language, and becoming a better programmer.
Bill Venners: In an interview with CIPS Connections, you said, "I read a bunch of open source software source code, for example, Perl, Python, and many flavors of Lisp interpreter. I know they were needed to write Ruby." What benefit do you think programmers can derive from reading source code?
Yukihiro Matsumoto: Programmers can get a lot of benefit from reading source code. You can't simply tell people how to be good programmers. You can offer them some principles of good programming. You can describe some good design experiences you've had. But you can't give them a real knowledge of how to be a good programmer. I believe the best way for that knowledge to be obtained is by reading code. Writing code can certainly help people become good programmers, but reading good code is much better.
Bill Venners: Why?
Yukihiro Matsumoto: Because being a good programmer is a matter of experience. Code is an expression of the thoughts, attitudes, and ideas of the programmer. By reading code, you can not only figure out what particular task the programmers were trying to accomplish and understand how they did it, but you can also gain insight into how they were thinking. This is the reason that reading code makes programmers better.
And besides that, if you want to know how to accomplish something in code, you can open a computer science textbook. The textbook will explain the algorithm. But if you want to understand the algorithm very quickly, reading code is the best way. Moreover, you can execute code that implements theh algorithm. You can use a debugger to watch the code as it performs the algorithm. And this is much better than just reading a textbook.
Bill Venners: In the CIPS Connection interview, you gave ten tips for programmers. One of them was, "Learn more than one programming language, preferably many different styles, like scripting, object-oriented, functional, logic, etc." What is the benefit of learning multiple programming languages?
Yukihiro Matsumoto: Every language or system has its own culture. In the background of every language or system are some central ideas. Most of these ideas are good, but they are different. By learning many languages and systems, you get exposed to different ideas—and that enhances your point of view.
If you don't know Prolog, for example, you may not know the power of goal directed programming—programming by describing the problem to solve through specifying rules to apply. This is a very interesting concept. It is a very different way of thinking. And if you don't know Prolog, or the predicate logic, it's very difficult to discover this way of thinking by yourself. Knowing other systems and paradigms expands the world inside your brain. That's why I advise learning multiple languages.

Yamaha Outdoors Tips — Fall Turkey Hunting
By Steve Hickoff
For some of you who grew up in the "beards in the spring; antlers in the fall" tradition, autumn turkey hunting might be an afterthought. For others, it's a priority. Here are some reasons why:
You've got a closet full of turkey hunting apparel, a gun or bow, and a bunch of calls. Use the stuff.
Early and even late archery seasons often coincide with chances at both whitetails and wild turkeys from the same treestand.
Need a better excuse to be out there? It will help you scout for deer firearms season, which often falls later than certain fall turkey gun-hunt dates.
Want to improve your wild turkey talk? Spending more time with vocal autumn flocks will help make you a better spring gobbler hunter. At times in the fall woods you'll hear a range of calling birds, from young to adult. Spending time with the turkeys will teach you plenty.
Looking for a way to pass along your experience and love of the outdoors? It's an excellent opportunity to introduce a young person to the turkey hunting tradition.
Closing the deal on a hen is much like tagging a doe in deer hunting. In some highly populated areas of turkey country, taking an adult broodless hen (or young bird) is practical game management. Remember how difficult it was back in spring to lure a strutter away from maybe a handful to a dozen hens?
Turkey dogs are used to find and flush flocks before you attempt to call scattered gregarious birds back to the break site. As a result, dog men, in states where it's legal, can add another game bird species to their list of opportunities.
A wild turkey on your Thanksgiving Day table honors the outdoor experience and extends memories.
Okay, you've got your list of good excuses. Check for available hunts in your state and others, then get out on your Yamaha ATV or Side-by-Side and enjoy two-season turkey hunting this fall.

As I sit here at the Siem Reap airport about to board to Phnom Penh, the travel time has dawned on me: I have a 5 hour layover in Phnom Penh, 20 hours of flight time and another 3 hour layover in Seoul... that puts me almost 30 hours to Paris. Bummer...
Today was extremely hot.
The last couple days in Siem Reap, I was lucky to spend with my favorite buddies: Anthony, Simon, Anette and Stine... it was too sad to say goodbye to them and we are all hoping to someday reconnect, preferably all together for some more awesome times, but sadly, Cambodia will be a distant, but warm memory.
I'm actually really, really sad. I didn't think I would be so emotional, but this trip has been pretty overwhelming and I've fallen madly in love with Cambodia. The smiles on the people's faces in the traffic as the tuk-tuk brought me to the airport was comforting but too nostalgic at the same time. I really wish I had been able to stay longer. This place is so magical and it will be greatly missed. With high hopes to return soon and hopefully with a mission to open a school, I leave here with tears in my eyes and sweat on my brow.
Thank you to everyone who has been reading my blog, it means a lot that you care and I hope to have met your writing/blogging standards in the process.
Much love, from Cambodia
Erica :-)

Nonetheless, if Optimus boosts battery life a little and keeps the system running coolly and quietly, then it's using good. Also doing some good is the 2. 26GHz Intel Core i-5 processor that powers the K52J, a processor gowns proven to be an ample performer in the past. It's copied by a plentiful 4GB of RAM, and a 1 GB Nvidia GeForce 310M dedicated graphics card offers the performance option. For safe-keeping you obtain a 500GB hard drive, while Wireless-N Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 2. 1 care for the cellular connectivity. If the 500GB hard disk isn't spacious enough for your needs, it's easy enough to replace it or add an external disk using one of three USB2 ports. There aren't any USB3, eSATA or FireWire ports for the speediest storage though. Most importantly, one of the USB plug-ins is quite near the DVD writer, so a chunky USB flash drive could foul the way of the DVD rack. An unexpected bonus is the two year guarantee, which is twice the length you get with most laptops these times.
The Asus K52J is a powerful laptop with a reasonable price marking. The Asus K52J is a good laptop and the computerized graphics nick switching works surprisingly well. However, the battery life and 3D performance isn't very significantly much better than cheaper notebooks. One slightly disappointing aspect of the K52J is its connectivity. It includes all the basics, including HIGH DEFINITION, VGA and three HARDWARE ports, but it won't extend much beyond these.

de la abundancia del corazon, habla la boca,
which justine says literally means, "the abundance of the heart is spoken by the mouth"... or "whatever your heart is full of, you will talk about it"...
it makes me think about what is coming out of my mouth that starts in my heart. for example, this morning my heart is feeling grumpy, and that definitely came out of my mouth this morning! sounds like it's time for me to turn that around so i can have flowers coming from my heart and through my mouth, as justine's gorgeous drawing suggests. :)
check out more of justine's work in her etsy shop and on her blog!
*thanks, justine!*

"Aim High"
Pupil Premium at Instow Community Primary and Pre-School 2016/17 and strategy for 2017/18
Our strategy for the school's use of the pupil premium.
For the current academic year 2017/18:
Our school's pupil premium grant allocation amount for 2017/18:
A summary of the main barriers to educational achievement faced by eligible pupils at the school
Learning to learn skills (including emotional barriers).
Reading standards
Creative writing confidence.
Spelling strategies and grammar skills.
Phonics development
Maths confidence, especially reasoning.
Access to ICT (computing) in an educational setting.
Access to Forest School education.
Access to quality homework research sites.
Access to school residentials.
How we'll continue to spend the pupil premium to address those barriers and the reasons for that approach
Wide range of core subject interventions by accredited staff, to address misunderstandings in core subjects and to pre-teach in preparation for a new topic, for individuals and small groups.
Learning Mentor to work with individuals and small groups to ensure children develop positive learning skills and remain in full-time education.
Whole-school education around Growth Mindset skills, so that PP pupils take responsibility for their own learning as part of the whole school community.
Ongoing monitoring of the impact of our Dyslexia training programme and subsequent enhanced Award for the Devon Dyslexia Programme, ensuring that any PP pupils are fully supported in their studies.
Family Workshops to strengthen parent-child relationships, as well as school and home communication.
Training for school staff in elements of the above needs.
ELSA (Emotional Literacy Support Assistants) training and on-going supervision for an accredited member of staff I order to support transition for older pupils in to KS3 settings.
Music tuition to aide concentration and brain development – stretching able pupils.
Forest School provision to develop problem-solving strategies and teamwork skills.
Purchase of Mangahigh, Espresso and Times-Tables Rock Stars service level agreements to enable inclusion and motivation in the modern learning environment.
Case by case consideration to support PP children and their families to access school residentials.
How we'll measure the impact of the Pupil Premium funding for 2016/17:
Now that published data on pupils progress has changed since 2016, we shall be referring to the following data and using this to inform you and Governors of the impact, by July 2017:
Percentage of PP pupils on track or better, to achieve end of year targets.
KS2 and KS1 SATs data
Standardised Maths, Reading and Spelling progress tests.
Teacher Assessment (using close monitoring and tracking of pupil progress using School Pupil Tracker)
Phonics data.
End of Foundation Stage data.
The date of the next published review of the school's pupil premium strategy
July 2017 (for 2016/17)
For the previous academic year, (2016/17) we will include:
how we spent the pupil premium allocation
the impact of the expenditure on eligible pupils
In 2011-12 the Government started its Pupil Premium funding. This fund is allocated to schools to support pupils whose families are in receipt of free school meals or to support children in care. From 2012-13, the criteria for such funding has expanded to include all children who have been eligible for free school meals within the last 6 years.
These monies aim to ensure pupils reach their full potential, both academically and socially.
In 2011-12 the school received £5368.00 in Pupil Premium funding.
In 2012-13 Instow School used a combined grant of approximately £7800.00 available to support such families.

Franklin Pierce students and families are getting their hands dirty and actively contributing to the health and vitality of our community.
Each Franklin Pierce Schools graduating class contributes approximately 15,000 hours of community service in our community. Last week, 150 Franklin Pierce High School students rolled up their sleeves and worked to build a more welcoming campus by cleaning up the grounds, weeding, and painting "welcome stones".
Earlier this month, Our Savior Lutheran Church mobilized members of the community to participate in their annual Faith in Action Day at Keithley Middle School. Projects ranged from spreading new mulch and planting shrubs to restoring a bike rack and updating a lounge. In addition to the work that was accomplished, students, staff, and community members were able to forge new connections.
To learn more about the many ways you can be involved in the Franklin Pierce community, click here.
Franklin Pierce Schools does not discriminate on the basis of sex, race, creed, religion, color, national origin, age, honorably discharged veteran or military status, sexual orientation including gender expression or identity, the presence of any sensory, mental, or physical disability, or the use of a trained dog guide or service animal by a person with a disability in its programs and activities and provides equal access to the Boy Scouts and other designated youth groups.
Questions and complaints of alleged discrimination should be directed to James Hester, Compliance Coordinator for State and Civil Rights Laws; Wendy Malich, Title IX Officer; or John Sander, 504/ADA Coordinator at 315 129th ST S, Tacoma, WA 98444-5099 or at (253)298-3000.

I just got off the phone with one of my all-time favorite people. She just broke up with her boyfriend of two years, because – as he explained it – he doesn't see a future between them. Somewhere in my self-aggrandizing brain, I've come to view myself as the only scared, single 20-something alive. Rationally I know this is not true, and though the MS thing definitely sharpens my fear of perpetual singledom, I do not have (nor want) a monopoly on loneliness.
While listening to her tonight, she said something that made me think. She said, and I paraphrase, "People say I'll find a better guy, but I'm starting to think that everyone's pretty much a mess. We go through break-ups in order to give us time to breathe and recover enough to deal with another person's bucket of shit."
So here I am, an hour and a half later, thinking about my own bucket of shit. It comes in the form of a wheelchair, but inside it there's all the fear and disappointment and anger that have grown out of a decade with MS. I'm sure there's other shit in my bucket by now, but everything MS-related is definitely the heaviest for me to carry, and the hardest for me to share. In spite of this, though, I might actually have a leg up on several other single 20-somethings out there: I'm acutely aware of what's in my bucket. And while I typically reserve the articulation of my MS-related struggles for my journal, anyone I date sees the majority of my "mess" immediately. I guess this should be viewed as a positive. I'll never ask anyone to go burying through my bucket of shit only to discover the real deal-breaker five years down the road.
In addition to this oh-so-sophisticated bucket of shit epiphany, I realized something else. My friend – MS or not – is hurting just as badly as I ever have. Post-breakup, she's filled with the same type of fear, self-doubt and sadness as I am. And just because her own "mess" doesn't include a neurological disease, doesn't make it any easier to deal with, heal from and eventually share with someone new.

The foregoing discussion as such, makes it clear that evidence of PW1 to PW4 is trustworthy and reliable. In a criminal case, the prosecution is obliged to prove charges beyond all reasonable doubts. Though this standard of proof is a higher standard, there is, however, no absolute standard. Though it was argued that because of various minor discrepancies, the prosecution case is not free from doubt, no substance is found in such submission as the doubt must be that of a reasonable man. It must be actual, substantial and reasonable. The prosecution is not required to meet any and every hypothesis put forward by appellants/accused persons. To be reasonable, a doubt must be based upon reason and common sense. It should grow out of evidence in the case. The concept of proof beyond all reasonable doubts cannot stretched too much to mean proof of rigid mathematical precision. Therefore, we do not find any merit in submission of the learned counsel for appellants that case of prosecution is doubtful because PW1 Abhijit Nikude had admitted in cross-examination that when he had been toPrint Page
police station, police had not arrested the accused, whereas PW9 Subhash Jadhav - Investigator says that accused were caught red handed. Ultimately, arrest panchnama at Exhibit 84 is an admitted document which shows arrest on the day of the incident. In the matter of Ganesh Datt (Supra) the evidence of prosecution was found to be inconsistent and on facts it was held that the prosecution has failed to prove the guilt of the accused therein. Such is not the case in hand.

I also created a minibook printable version of the Holy Week Calendar Craft from The Domestic Notebook. I printed these out, folded them according to these directions, and we will draw a related picture in the empty space each day. I used the readings from Luke as I feel it is the most succinct and small child friendly of the Gospels.

"From the girl that guffawed at the idea of going to a Microsoft workshop. I thought I knew all there was to know about Word and Excel. People at my office come to me when they have questions about formatting. "What could I possibly take away from this?" I questioned. I hemmed and hawed and went to the seminar anyway. I am embarrassed to admit, out of everything Vickie went over – I knew none of it. Zero. Zilch. Nada. I look at Microsoft in a whole new light. One might even say, I just fell in love. And the best part? The people at the office think I am really cool now."
Holly Eardley, Director of Development, Lucky Duck Productions

A member of our Leadership came to thank me for having injected newfound IT enthusiasm into his PA as a result – but it's all thanks to you!"

Lucy Brazier interviews Marlize SchneiderLucy Brazier interviews Marlize Schneider, Former Executive Assistant to Rev Mpho Tutu van Furth at The Desmond and Leah Tutu Foundation.
Desmond Tutu rose through the ranks, from Dean of Johannesburg to Bishop of Lesotho, Secretary-General of the South African Council of Churches, to Archbishop of Cape Town. He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1984 for his contribution to overcoming apartheid. Upon his retirement from the church, he headed the newly-democratic South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission.

Lucy Brazier interviews Samantha CoxWhat is it like to be EA to Sir Richard Branson, one of the world's most successful entrepreneurs? In this exclusive interview with Lucy Brazier Samantha Cox will explain how working for Sir Richard Branson played a huge large role in influencing her career, encouraging her own entrepreneurial mindset and allowing her to believe the world is her oyster.
She'll talk about her day to day life on Necker Island. about dealing with the aftermath of the "massive fire" on that island in 2011- one of the biggest challenges of her career, as well as exploring career highlights included the opportunity to travel the world at Branson's side, becoming involved with his philanthropic endeavour VirginUnite and working with The Elders organisation, an independent group of global leaders who work together for peace and human rights, founded by the late Nelson Mandela.
Sam says "When I moved from being a PA at VirginAustralia to being Sir Richard Branson's EA, I took myself out of my comfort zone and had the attitude of what's there to lose?" she says. "I didn't know if I would get the position, but I had to take the chance. I actually sent Richard a video message, rather than just sending my resume. "A brilliant EA is invaluable. They are always one step ahead of you. I think a lot of people see them as the person who does the expense report, manages the diary etc, but I truly believe that directors and managers have to account for at least some of their success being due to having a solid support person in their EA"

KEYNOTE: Management, Leadership and Innovation: The Indispensable Role of Executive Support - Melba J. Duncan in conversation with al-Husein MadhanyWhen Melba Duncan spoke at Executive Secretary LIVE in London, you could have heard a pin drop. Why? Because she is the only leader in the Administrative sector to have the ear of America's CEOs and she uses her voice to explain to them how best to use their Assistants.
Simply put, she understands and is eloquently vocal about why the best Executive Assistants are indispensable. The tech world will never develop software that can calm a hysterical sales manager, avert a crisis by redrafting a poorly worded email, smooth a customer's ruffled feathers, and solve a looming HR issue—all within a single hour, and all without interrupting the manager to whom such problems might otherwise have proven a distraction.
In this session, Melba will be joined by one of the brightest minds in the profession, al-Husein Madhany, to talk about the future of Executive support. Join them as Melba explains how after years of cutting back, companies can boost productivity by arming more managers with this kind of help—and executives who are fortunate enough to have a skilled Assistant can benefit by finding ways to delegate higher-level work to him or her.
Executive–Assistant relationships are business partnerships: Strong ones are win-wins between smart people. In fact, they're win-win- wins because ultimately the companies reap the benefits. We guarantee that you will leave this session understanding how vital your role is to business and why the role of the EA is truly one of indispensability.

Here are just a few comments from previous events:
"I feel truly energised to provide an even higher level of service to my executives... I've started researching a topic that I would like to write an article on & have spoken to one of my execs about leading a project to unify the EAs across our company .. to use Dinah's phrase "I've removed the box"
Colette Martin
Executive Assistant, Bard/Beckton Dickinson
"I am reassured, rejuvenated, reminded and remotivated that I am in the right profession, a position that requires endless skill sets and constant demand...we do it all and with a smile. It takes a special person to do what we do everyday and we are phenomenal at it. It is a career that I love."
Amber Manezes
Sr. Administrative Assistant, Seattle Genetics

Having the ability to stay abreast with the latest technology is essential for our company in providing the best quality customer care and product offering that our clients have come to expect.
Dallas, TX (PRWEB) October 12, 2016
The move will more than quadruple the size of the company's floor space. Private office space and the number of work stations for employees has tripled.
"The expansion just wasn't about Swagit wanting a larger facility or a different look and feel, we wanted to design a space that met the future technological and video production needs of local government," said Co-founder and Director of Streaming Media Services David Alex Owusu. "Honestly the move was a culmination of Swagit and our clients growing together, with the primary goal of creating more transparency by promoting digital content within unique 'hands-free' platforms."
The new headquarters include such amenities as a workout facility with showers, café, gaming lounge and a VIP suite attached to a new, state of the art, 1000 square foot production studio.
"Having the ability to stay abreast with the latest technology is essential for our company in providing the best quality customer care and product offering that our clients have come to expect," said Bryan Halley, Co-founder and Director of Video Technology and Affairs. "We now have a facility that will allow us to further recruit and maintain future employees that live up to the high standards Swagit employees are known for having."
About Swagit Productions, LLC:
Swagit Productions LLC is a leading provider of hosted audio/video streaming services for government agencies, with a fast-growing client roster that includes municipalities across the United States and Canada. Distinguished for its ability to provide automated, or 'hands free', streaming and content management capabilities that reduce the need for onsite A/V staffing resources. Swagit provides municipalities with a cost-effective, convenient means to engage the local community in government processes.

Hi, gang - I know I rarely post anymore - what is wrong with me??? Well, I am a busy bee! I am trying to only post about current projects that I have made progress on, instead of constantly adding to the design blogworld with yet another post on a magazine article, etc... This past week I have been designing a long distance client's living room - hopefully we are close to final decisions and shopping time! I also got a huge peacock mirror for my bestie, but can't photograph it until the seller makes a repair. Stay tuned!
I also finalized my logo:
my website - please go check it out - I am especially proud of the wallpaper hallway pics I got with my client's gorgeous girls running down it:
I truly love children in photographs of interiors - they bring so much joy to them. But I am very careful not to show their faces in my own publicity material. I took lots of portraits showing their faces for their mom to have.
I have lots of things in the works, so I hope to have more pics for you soon!

Management Information System
The SAVIX is based on a standardised management information system developed by VSL Associates, with support from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, CARE, Catholic Relief Services, Oxfam America and Plan International.
The VSL Associates Management Information System is available HERE and is fully functional as a stand-alone MIS solution for agencies that promote savings groups.
Versions 3.02 forward of the MIS are also compatible with the SAVIX and enable users to upload their data directly to the site.
Facilitating Agency
Savings groups have historically been promoted through a facilitating agency that mobilises and trains groups directly or through a network of local partner organisations. The facilitating agency – or its partners – train and supervise the operations of a savings group over a period of about one, after which groups become independent.
At the outset, training and supervision is usually conducted by paid staff but most facilitating agencies rapidly devolve training and supervision responsibilities to community-based village agents who reside in the local area and continue to implement the initiative beyond the end of an externally-funded programme.
This ensures the long-term availability of local training resources that do not require continued external financing.
A project is a cluster of savings groups, ranging from a few hundred to several thousand groups. A project represents a local office of a facilitating agency or its local partner organisation. The management information system is maintained at the level of the project; and a project represents the basic unit of reporting on this site.
Data Upload and Reporting
The MIS has a simple data export tool that enables project administrators to upload their data directly to the site, either through a facilitating agency or directly, to a location created by a facilitating agency. The SUMMARY GUIDE FOR FACILITATING AGENCIES provides detailed instructions for the activation of a new project, maintenance of an existing project profile and the upload of data.
Data is reported on a quarterly basis and active projects may upload their data up to 45 days following the end of each quarter. The system will only accept the upload of complete MIS data files during the reporting period and will reject any file that is incomplete or contains data entry errors identified by the MIS.
Data Rating
A data validation tool is embedded in the MIS to prevent the entry of impossible data and improve data quality in general. The SAVIX also invites all projects and facilitating agencies to have their data rated. The level of data quality for each project is indicated through a system of stars. Using a standard data accuracy measurement tool, projects are assessed by the SAVIX and receive one to four stars based on the measured accuracy of its primary records at the level of the group and field staff.
Data ratings provide practitioners, donors and industry observers an objective evaluation of the completeness and accuracy of projects' self-reported data. For more information on dating ratings, please CONTACT US

Saisonscape: Decay
This is happening in Bristol at the weekend and it features Kemper Norton, who is always a delight to meet and watch and hear. I'm going despite the fact that I'm normally deeply suspicious of musical events that cross over into art. I love Art, love music but don't think anything about soundpoems or soundart (both deeply flawed concepts, as far as I can see). I loved it when Throbbing Gristle shifted out of the Art scene and into Pop (sort of) and didn't much care for anything they got up to when, in recent times, they got sucked back in. Coum seemed interesting, as Art, TG were much more interesting as music - and so it goes...
We should watch out for Art, creeping into our musical scenes.
We should resist.
The rules of engagement are different over there.

What exactly is a "landscape"? How do you practice a "landscape approach"? Look no further than Landscapes.org – an online hub for news, events, graphics, definitions and case study examples of the landscape approach.
Check out this week's special feature story: Drawing, role-playing and 3D maps: How a landscape approach can work on the ground.
Registrations for the Global Landscapes Forum — a two-day event on the sidelines of November's U.N. Climate Change conference in Warsaw — are filling fast, so register now.
Keynote speaker Rachel Kyte, Vice President for Sustainable Development at the World Bank, will be joined by other high-level speakers and panelists to discuss how the world can find combined solutions for climate-change mitigation and adaptation, sustainable resource use, poverty eradication, food security and a growing need for energy.
We're also pleased to announce Warsaw University as the host organization and Poland's Ministry of Agriculture and Environment as official partners.
A recent literature review revealed that most gender and forestry research is occurring in South Asia, primarily due to the pioneering work of Indian development economist, Bina Agarwal. In this POLEX, CIFOR postdoctoral fellow Bimbika Sijapati Basnett discusses how a recent study extends Agarwal's analysis to Africa and Latin America – and challenges some long-held assumptions about how women participate in forest governance.
Strengthening the capacity of the Central African Republic to adapt to climate change could help build peace in the landlocked country, which has been hampered by political instability and civil conflict since it achieved independence from France in 1960, a new CIFOR study suggests.
A large-scale study has found that a handful of big trees store up to half the above-ground biomass in tropical forests, raising implications for forest management and climate change mitigation. "Only 3 percent of the forests are made up of big trees, but these trees store up to half the biomass," said Ferry Slik, a scientist at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. "If just a few of these large trees die, it immediately has a major impact."
Smallholder farmers in the Amazon sell timber from trees that have grown on fallow fields to improve income, but such production can go unrecognized in official statistics — often because it is commercialized through informal channels, according to new research.

Mechanisms for sharing the benefits from Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation (REDD+) projects must be well-designed or they could create problems in the long term, CIFOR researchers find in a new global comparative study. They found two of the most serious issues are unclear tenure and land rights, and under-representation of local people —problems that tend to arise from the political setting and the design of institutions.
Observing how honey-gathering skills are passed from one generation to another, and how such skills are retained, a new CIFOR study is providing important insight into the way people acquire and deploy different types of social knowledge at different ages.
