Research Updates
KEY MESSAGES• Farmer's perceive that dry sowing can improve overall farm productivity• The proportion of wheat dry sown within a farm is 40% in the low rainfall zone compared with 26% and 23% in the medium and high rainfall zones.• When growers dry sow they are most concerned about weed control, poor emergence and the risk of frost.
KEY MESSAGESIn 2012 two insecticides, each representing a new mode of action, were approved for use against diamondback moth (DBM) in canola. While DBM has been difficult to control with older organophosphates and synthetic pyrethroids, spinetoram (Success™ NEO from Dow AgroSciences) and emamectin benzoate (Affirm® from Syngenta) are highly effective and with careful management will continue to provide canola growers with cost-effective DBM control for many years.
KEY MESSAGES Four trials commissioned by Dow AgroSciences studied the efficacy of TransformTM on three species of aphids attacking canola in Western Australia (WA). These data shows that Transform is effective on damaging populations of aphids in canola at rates between 100 – 200 mL/ha. Transform contains a brand new insecticide and will be a valuable tool for canola growers with anticipated registration in mid 2013.
KEY MESSAGES• Average yield loss from YS-SNB disease complex in wheat over thirty years of DAFWA's field trials in WA was 11.5% equating to 302 kg/ha or $75 /ha. Yield effects in individual experiments ranged from -300 to 1760 kg/ha. • The higher rainfall zone suffers greater yield losses from YS-SNB disease complex than medium and low rainfall zones.• Application of one fungicide spray can recover some of this loss to provide economic returns (break even yield ~ 60 kg/ha) in high and medium rainfall zones, but is unlikely to be economic in the low rainfall zone.• Differences in response to fungicide product (tebuconazole, propiconazole or newer products) were not clearly evident in yield response, whereas higher rates, regardless of fungicide, significantly increased yield response in the high rainfall zone.• A significant yield response was evident when disease level was at least 10% leaf area affected on the second top leaf at the time of spray.• The more rain-days (having at least 2 mm per day) the crop received in the 10-day period after spraying, the greater the yield response.
KEY MESSAGES• Summer rainfall in excess of 25-30 mm in a single event is usually stored in the subsoil, so a rainfall event of 100 mm would leave about 70 mm in the soil. Rainfall events smaller than 25 mm are generally completely evaporated prior to sowing. Later rainfall is more beneficial, particularly on heavier soils.• Summer weeds are effective in scavenging soil water and nitrogen.• Residue management has little impact on stored soil water at sowing.• Increased soil water at sowing may lead to higher yields, particularly in soils with higher soil water holding capacity, or in dry growing seasons.• Summer weed control is necessary in about 40% of years in the Northern Agriculture Region, and 60% of years on the south coast, and on average gives a positive economic return.
AIMS:A submission has been made to the APVMA for registration of Roundup Attack with IQ inside used pre-harvest in canola – a new use pattern for Australian canola growers.Trials demonstrate good levels of annual ryegrass seed set control – providing growers with another tool for weed seed management.Application can be made over the top of standing canola (prior to direct harvest) or applied under the windrower/swather with specialized spray equipment.
KEY MESSAGESGrazing of cereal and canola crops in winter reduced grain yield by between 8 and 21% at seven of eleven sites. Grain yield was unaffected by grazing at four of eleven sites. Late and/or heavy grazing of a crop increases the risk of incurring a yield penalty. Low rainfall may also be a factor.Grazing needs to be carefully managed when grazing crops to avoid costly yield penalties in years (such as 2012) when grain prices are high.
KEY MESSAGES• Growers are tending to adopt a combination of short-term mitigation and long-term amelioration management options for managing water repellent soils both of which can improve crop establishment and productivity.• Wetting agents, paired row seeding and other mitigation options can improve whole farm income because they are used over the whole seeding program. Amelioration options such as spading or mouldboard ploughing often give greater and longer-lasting yield increases and are profitable but are slow and costly to implement.
Key messages• Nitrogen derived from soil organic matter was most available in mouldboard treatments.• Moderately water repellent soil has reduced soil nutrient availability though has not had a negative impact on crop establishment.• Mouldboard ploughing and rotary spading have had a major effect on root distribution in the 2nd year after tillage.
KEY MESSAGES• Moddus Evo reduces lodging and can increase yields• Application timing and concentration of Moddus Evo is critical• Moddus Evo should not be applied to plants under stress• Moddus Evo has improved formulation stability and plant uptake

It's so nice to finally be in the city. Really, really nice.
All told, it took me 7.5 hours to get from Newark to Brooklyn last night. Yes, seven and a half hours. How in the world did I manage that? It wasn't easy, let me tell you.
7:00 pm
Plane lands exactly on time. Head to baggage claim where I somehow succeed in herding all three of my suitcases over to ground transportation without the aid of a cart. (I was feeling stubborn about paying the $5 fee to rent one; luggage carts fall under the category of things that should be provided freely by airports, IMHO).
7:45 pm
Informed by ground transportation agent that my options to Brooklyn are a ~$100 taxi or a $50 shuttle that will pick me up in an hour and a half. I had written off the night to traveling anyway and there was an unfinished Marjorie Williams book in my bag, so I opted for the latter.
10:00 pm
Several chapters, a Subway sandwich, and an apple later, the driver is still not here. Decide this is a great opportunity to commence my effort to be more "laid back." Call my mom, who is very angry on my behalf. Become not so laid back talking to her.
10:30 pm
Driver finally appears, looking harried. As explanation for his lateness, he launches into a story about how a customer just stole $100 from him. Experience strange mix of sympathy and urge to strangle him.
Make friends with the one other passenger, an American Airlines pilot meeting his family in La Guardia for a weekend vacation in the city.
Pilot and I spend thirty minutes sitting in the van while driver tries to check in with base; turns out they've gone home for the night, surprise surprise. He asks for our credit cards and then realizes he can't find his credit card receipts.
Against my better judgment, I ask the pilot about his scariest experience flying a plane. He tells a funny story about a flight from Italy that was grounded because of smoke coming from the cargo hold. Turns out one of the passengers had checked in huge jars of olive oil that sprang a leak.
11:00 pm
Driver still can't find credit card receipts, asks us to pay in cash. At this point I think I would agree to give him my first-born child. We head to terminal B to pick up more passengers. Rounding out the cast of characters are two girls from London on an exchange program studying criminology and forensic science, and a woman returning from Iceland where she's been running a pet care business for the past six years.
11:20 pm
Finally, finally on our way. Driver tells us the route is La Guardia, Brooklyn, then JFK. Lynn, the Icelandic pet care owner, informs us she has to catch the last shuttle to Connecticut from JFK, which leaves at 12:30. Brooklyn slips to last on the itinerary.
Crawl towards Holland Tunnel. First realization that New York traffic is impossible to predict. Discover that Sanchez, our driver, is from a town close to Medellín, Columbia, where I've just returned from a visit. Warm to his frequent exclamations of "Saturday night fever!" and "It's funky town tonight," all delivered in a high-pitched kind of cackle.
Notice Lynn likes to inform no one in particular that she hasn't seen [x random street or landmark] in six years! Decide against telling her that we fully grasp what "I haven't been back to the States for six years" encompasses.
1:15 am
We drop off the two Londoners somewhere in east Brooklyn. Women who comes to help them with their bags: "Lord have mercy there's still another passenger in there?" I sigh.
"Where are you going again?" Sanchez asks. I repeat the address and get a blank look. He pulls out a map, mumbling to himself. I wonder if I should bother to point out the GPS unit installed in the dashboard.
We chat some more and I learn that Sanchez used to be a veterinary surgeon back in Columbia, and that he has thirty-four year old twin daughters who also live in the States. I ask him for his favorite Columbian restaurant in the city and he tells me about a place in Queens called Natives. He starts calling out numbers in rapid succession and I realize he's giving me his cell phone number, with the admonition that "When you call, I might not remember the name, but I will remember the experience!" I sure do hope so.
1:40 am
We're pulled over again in the right-hand lane while Sanchez consults his map. Two drunk men mistake us for a cab service and try to open the van door. I jump up from where I've been lying on the seat and ask Sanchez if he's sure the doors are locked.
2:00 am
Somehow, we make it to Sharon's. Sanchez drops me off with a kiss on the cheek and a reminder to give him a call anytime. I open the mailbox by the door and find keys attached to an index card with my name on it, just as Sharon had promised. Elated that one part of the night was actually going according to plan, I text my parents (prematurely) that I've made it. Turns out the most absurd part of my night is just beginning.
I let myself in to what I later find out is called the vestibule, but what at two in the morning just seems like an awfully bizarre apartment design. I encounter three wooden doors that all look exactly alike, all closed. It feels like a scene from the end of the first Harry Potter book.
I try the first door on the left. Locked. There's light coming from the bottom of the middle door, but I can only get it open about two feet. As far as I can tell, the path is blocked by a stack of boxes filled with old toys. I know Sharon and her roommate are teachers, so this doesn't seem too strange. The third and final door swings open easily and leads into a large, darkened bedroom. There's someone asleep in the bed but I can't discern who.
As I tiptoe around the room, I'm struck by how much it resembles a kid's room; stuffed animals and board games are scattered everywhere. Sharon must be really devoted to her students, I think. I slip directly into an adjoining bedroom that holds a bunk bed and more toys. Still not seeing a likely contender for where I'm supposed to sleep, I continue on.
I walk into the hallway with the blockade of boxes, past a bathroom, and reach another closed door. Pushing it ajar, I see the glow of an alarm clock and realize it's another bedroom.
I decide to double back. Finding a staircase that I had missed, I follow it down and come across the kitchen, the living room, two storage rooms, and another bathroom. I'm ready to pass out on the living room couch but it's covered with piles of folded laundry. I notice an abundance of diminutively sized socks and underwear. That's weird, does Sharon's roommate have kids?
At this point I start to feel like something's not right, but I'm too tired to really think. As one last check, I walk back outside to make sure I'm at the right address. 137, that's the number. Convinced I just didn't look hard enough for my sleeping spot, I lug my carry-on suitcase downstairs.
A second pass through the downstairs yields nothing. I've started to move clothes from the couch to the floor when it finally hits me how strange this all is. I venture back upstairs only to realize, with a good amount of horror, that there's a ten-ish year old girl sleeping in the bunk bed and a six-ish year old boy sleeping in the first bedroom.
I start to freak out a bit. Where the hell am I?? Some kind of twilight zone?
Suddenly I remember that Sharon had left me two keys. Digging around in my purse, I pull out the key ring. In my joy upon reaching the apartment, I overlooked the possibility that Sharon had left a note on the index card attached to the key ring. Sure enough, I unfold it to find:
Welcome! Make yourself at home! Feel free to call if we're still out & you want to come have a drink nearby
Silver key: front door
Bronze key: first door straight ahead in vestibule
I won't detail how dumb I felt in that moment.
Ten minutes later, after one last trip through the neighbor's apartment to retrieve my carry-on, I finally collapse on the couch in Sharon's living room. My phone says it's 2:38 am.
The next morning I woke up to the chatter of the brother-sister pair I had creepily intruded on the night before; they were catching bugs in the backyard, their voices drifting through our open living room window.
I called my mom to tell her what happened. Her response:
"In seven and a half hours you could have flown more than halfway to China!"
Actual distance traveled: 14.4 miles
"What kind of parents leave the door to their kids' rooms unlocked at night??"
Good point. But I'm sure as heck not going to relay this story as an example of why they should lock their door.
"Lulu—if they woke up they could have attacked you with a bat! Did you think about that?"
Yep, that thought did occur to me. Thank goodness they were some heavy sleepers.
So hide your kids, hide your wife, because I will stumble into your apartment in the middle of the night and try to sleep on your couch.

Today, I came across a need to programmatically rename IIS 7 Virtual Directories and Applications using C#. Searching the web, I found several examples to add them, but wasn't able to find any to rename them. By exploring the class methods and modifying the examples accordingly, I was able to come up with what I was looking for.
Rename IIS 7 Virtual Directory
ServerManager iisManager = new ServerManager(); Application app = iisManager.Sites["SiteName"].Applications["/"]; VirtualDirectory vdir = app.VirtualDirectories["/OrigVirtualDirectoryName"]; if (vdir != null) { vdir.SetAttributeValue("path", "/NewVirtualDirectoryName"); iisManager.CommitChanges(); }
Rename IIS 7 Application
ServerManager iisManager = new ServerManager(); Application app = iisManager.Sites["SiteName"].Applications["/OrigApplicationName"]; if (app != null) { app.SetAttributeValue("path", "/NewApplicationName"); iisManager.CommitChanges(); }
If you want to work with a remote server, just change the first line to be
ServerManager iisManager = ServerManager.OpenRemote("RemoteServerName");

Abstract: This chapter explores changing representations of fatherhood and masculinity in Drum magazine over the course of the 1950s. In the early 1950s men were portrayed in close proximity to their children and adult masculinities were tied to being a father. Over the course of the 1950s this changed such that by the 1960s adult masculinities were portrayed outside the home and disconnected and distinct from their offspring.

Abstract: A growing shift towards research and evidence based practice in academia is associated with requirements to disseminate research results in the form of publication in peer reviewed journals. Mentoring has been identified as an important component of developing young authors, as it increases confidence and competence, and facilitates professional development. This led to the formation of a support group to stimulate peer-review publication in the physiotherapy department at the University of the Western Cape. The Kirkpatrick Framework of Evaluation was used to evaluate the success of the mentoring process which made use of a participatory action research methodology. The writing group consisted of nine academic members of staff and took place over ten weeks. The programme included writing, giving feedback, discussion and peer review on a weekly basis. Focus group discussions were taped and transcribed in order to evaluate the mentoring process by identifying relationships within the data and categorising key concepts, which were shaped into a thematic framework. The findings indicated that participants experienced a variety of emotions throughout the programme, with an overall feeling of personal growth by the end. In addition, participants also reported improved writing, reviewing and communication skills. Six months following the programme, six participants had submitted at least one article to a peer reviewed journal. It is clear from this study that some academics still find the task of writing and reviewing articles daunting, and that guidance and support in the form of a writing programme can be useful.

Abstract: With the rapid development of powerful protein evolution and enzyme-screening technologies, there is a growing belief that optimum conditions for biotransformation processes can be established without the constraints of the properties of the biocatalyst. These technologies can then be applied to find the 'ideal biocatalyst' for the process. In identifying the ideal biocatalyst, the processes of gene discovery and enzyme evolution play major roles. However, in order to expand the pool genes for in vitro evolution, new technologies, which circumvent the limitations of microbial culturability, must be applied. These technologies, which currently include metagenomic library screening, gene-specific amplification methods and even full metagenomic sequencing, provide access to a volume of 'sequence space' that is not addressed by traditional screening.

Abstract: The question of how to make higher education more inclusive has been a central concern in South Africa and elsewhere over the past two decades. However, in South Africa there remains a disjuncture between policy aimed at promoting inclusivity and the experiences of students and staff in the higher education sector. In this article, the relationship between equity of access and equity of outcomes and the expectations that follow from these policy imperatives are examined from the perspective of Nancy Fraser's normative framework of social justice. In particular, her notion of misframing is used to analyze the current situation in the higher education sector in South Africa. The article concludes that a focus on individual higher education institutions is not sufficient to gain a perspective on the social arrangements required for participatory parity in higher education, and in fact, such a focus is an instance of misframing and thus a form of injustice.

Abstract: Background: The objective of this study was to examine missed opportunities for participation in a prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) programme in three sites in South Africa. A rapid anthropological assessment was used to collect in-depth data from 58 HIV-positive women who were enrolled in a larger cohort study to assess mother-to-child HIV transmission. Semistructured interviews were conducted with the women in order to gain an understanding of their experiences of antenatal care and to identify missed opportunities for participation in PMTCT. Results: 15 women actually missed their nevirapine not because of stigma and ignorance but because of health systems failures. Six were not tested for HIV during antenatal care. Two were tested but did not receive their results. Seven were tested and received their results, but did not receive nevirapine. Health Systems failure for these programme leakages ranged from nonavailability of counselors, supplies such as HIV test kits, consent forms, health staff giving the women incorrect instructions about when to take the tablet and health staff not supplying the women with the tablet to take. Conclusion: HIV testing enables access to PMTCT interventions and should therefore be strengthened. The single dose nevirapine regimen is simple to implement but the all or nothing nature of the regimen may result in many missed opportunities. A short course dual or triple drug regimen could increase the effectiveness of PMTCT programmes. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10566/429 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: This essay builds on the conference on "Mission in the 21th century: New models and strategies in a world of diversity" held in Livingstone, Zambia from 25 March to 1 April 2004. It offers some background to the tension between mission as "evangelism" and as "development" which was addressed at this conference. It then describes some of the insights emerging from this conference, with specific reference to the description of mission as "crying and struggling with others to live today with dignity." It provides some perspectives on this description on the basis of an exegesis of the second half of the Lord's prayer. The conclusion to the essay suggests that further reflection is required on the relationship between soteriology and missiology. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10566/385 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: A new record of Crambionella stuhlmanni is reported from the east coast of South Africa. The material is described using quantitative morphological data, and mitochondrial (CO1) and nuclear (ITS-1) sequence data. The species can be diagnosed by a combination of morphological features including the presence of conical projections on velar lappets, the absence of orbicular appendages among mouthlets and the short length of the terminal club on the oral arm. Mitochondrial sequence data unambiguously delineate C. stuhlmanni as a separate species from C. orsini, and phylogenetic analyses support its placement within the monophyletic genus, Crambionella URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10566/249 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: Introduction: Marriage is seen as an institution for, among various objects, the procreation of children. Children in Islam are ideally seen as the fruits of marriage-for mothers as homemakers to love and nurture and for fathers to provide materially, presumably without any distinction between males and females. Sons, however, are specifically perceived as part of the wealth of men. Seventh-century Qur'anic verses of this nature are not interpreted any differently today, even though the situation in society has changed. There are mothers who are unwilling or unable merely to fulfil the role of homemaker, as there are fathers who are unwilling or unable to be the sole providers for their families. Sons become men and daughters become women, and in this way the vicious cycle is perpetuated. These verses also set the scene for the rights of Muslim children and the problems that these rights hold for any legislation, including human-rights instruments, whose provisions might apply equally to children, irrespective of sex and religion. In this paper, though, it is argued that the rights of children in Islam, seen in proper perspective, can be synchronized to conform to the requirements of a new children's code in South Africa (whether in the form of a revised Child Care Act or entirely new piece of legislation) and international instruments, as indeed should be the case the world over.

Abstract: Introduction: The first Muslims had arrived at the Cape from the Dutch colonies in the East Indies (now Indonesia) and the coastal regions of Southern India from anywhere around 1652-1658. Despite having been granted the freedom to practise their religion since 1804, Muslims could not give legal effect to their personal laws for three hundred years as social restrictions and political inequalities prevailed until recently. It is anticipated that the rapid changes taking place in South Africa since the democratic elections of 1994 will rectify this situation expeditiously.

De Ville, Jacques (University of California Press, 2011)[more][less]
Abstract: This essay enquires into the depictions of Justice through the ages, as well as the myths surrounding these depictions, more particularly in Egypt, Greece, and Rome, as well as in modern times. The essay departs in significant respects from traditional interpretations by seeking to gain from the insights in relation to mythology and the use of symbols provided by psychoanalysis, structuralism, Heidegger's thinking on Being, and deconstruction. Insofar as psychoanalysis is concerned, of importance in the present context is Freud's analysis of symbolism in the interpretation of dreams and in myths, specifically insofar as he contends that the symbols employed there almost invariably have a sexual connotation. The approach of Claude Lévi-Strauss is the focus of the detour through structuralism, with Lévi-Strauss challenging certain of the most prevalent ideas in relation to myth, such as that there is some original version of a myth, usually believed to be the earliest version. In the case of Heidegger, of particular importance is his challenge to us "moderns" to not be too quick in our belief that we understand ancient texts or the ancient conceptions of deities. He more specifically places in question the common belief that the gods and goddesses are persons or that they are abstract personifications of concepts. Derrida, in his analysis of the texts of Freud, Lévi-Strauss and Heidegger, further develops the ideas of each of these thinkers, seeking thereby to go beyond the Oedipus complex, beyond the security of structure, and beyond Being. After an analysis of depictions of the goddesses Ma'at, Themis, Dike and Justitia, based on the insights gained in the preceding analysis, the essay concludes with a reading of the blindfold of Justice in her modern guise which seeks to exceed metaphysics. Drawing specifically on Derrida's analysis of blindness in drawing, it arrives eventually not at the essence, but the an-essence of justice. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10566/288 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: This paper considers the role of 'measurement' and other forms of poverty knowledge in a context where the nature and direction of global economic growth is creating 'surplus populations' suffering various forms of marginalisation in the global economy. It links the development of different forms of poverty knowledge with the ways in which states and non-state agents seek to 'govern' poverty and poor populations, and with the 'biopolitics' whereby calculations are made about the differential allocation of resources towards different sectors of the global population. The paper argues that addressing the root causes of poverty requires social actors to go beyond the narrow limits of institutionally sanctioned and bureaucratically invested 'poverty knowledge' that currently dominate policy thinking. Rather than seeking to understand poverty by measuring the characteristics of members of populations, they should try to understand poverty as an aspect of social relations, and try to come to grips with differential insertion of populations in the fields of force of modern globalised capitalism. Analysis should abandon simple notions of 'marginalisation, and come to grips with the agency of poor people and the complex relationships between informality, marginality, exclusion and incorporation. Ultimately, however, a more nuanced understanding of the role of poverty knowledge in present day biopolitics does not bring with it any easy answers: rather, it challenges applied social scientists to be more aware of the responsibilities they bear as producers of 'useful' knowledge in a time of increased global instability.

Conradie, Ernst (Stellenbosch University, 2011)[more][less]
Abstract: This contribution explores John Calvin's position on natural theology. The point of departure is not so much the much discussed notions of a sensus divinitatis or of the semen religionis, but the role played by the human senses in coming to knowledge of God in the first place. How can God's presence be recognised? How can human language (that which is natural), from below, express the inexpressible? How is it possible to speak of God in the first place? This article suggests that Calvin's remarkably sophisticated understanding of signification is the clue to respond to these questions. His position is discussed on the basis of the reading strategy of catena and commentary. The author finally offers some concluding observations on the relationship between signifier, signified and referent in human language about God.

Abstract: This article investigates the tensions in the "mode 2" thesis, which suggests the emergence of new, global trends in the production and dissemination of knowledge. I explain its influence in recent South African higher education policy debates and research practices by referring to competing readings of "mode 2", which have allowed it to feed simultaneously into both liberal and critical discourses on higher education transformation in South Africa. Clear tensions emerge from the limitations of "mode 2" in speaking to existing inequalities and in informing non-corporate models of institutional transformation.

Abstract: Background. No pharmacokinetic data exist for premature infants receiving single-dose nevirapine (sd NVP) for prevention of mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of HIV. Aim. To describe NVP decay pharmacokinetics in two groups of premature infants - those whose mothers either received or did not receive NVP during labour. Methods. Infants less than 37 weeks' gestation were prospectively enrolled. Mothers received sd NVP during labour if time allowed. Infants received sd NVP and zidovudine. Blood was collected on specified days after birth and NVP concentrations were determined by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Results. Data were obtained from 81 infants, 58 born to mothers who received sd NVP during labour (group I) and 23 to mothers who did not receive NVP (group II). Of the infants 29.6% were small for gestational age (SGA). Median (range) maximum concentration (Cmax), time to reach maximum concentration (Tmax), area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) and halflife (T) were 1 438 (350-3 832) ng/ml, 25h50 (9h40-83h45), 174 134 (22 308-546 408) ng×h/ml and 59.0 (15.4-532.6) hours for group I and 1 535 (635-4 218) ng/ml, 17h35 (7h40-29h), 168 576 (20 268-476 712) ng×h/ml and 69.0 (22.12-172.3) hours for group II. For group II, the median (range) volume of distribution (Vd) and body clearance (Cl) were 1 702.6 (623.7-6 189.8) ml and 34.9 (6.2-163.8) ml/h. The AUC was higher (p=0.006) and Cl lower (p<0.0001) in SGA infants. Plasma concentrations exceeding 100 ng/ml were achieved over 8 days in 78% infants in group I and 70.0% in group II. The MTCT rate was 4.8%. Conclusion. Women in preterm labour often deliver with little advance warning. Our study suggests that NVP dosing of preterm infants as soon as possible after birth without maternal intrapartum dosing may be as effective as combined maternal and infant dosing.

Abstract: Diel vertical migration (DVM) of six common species of hydromedusae was investigated during two drogue studies conducted in St Helena Bay on the west coast of South Africa in February 1995. Clytia spp., Obelia spp. and Bougainvillia macloviana, were largely confined to surface waters and did not appear to display any DVM. By contrast, Leuckartiara octona and Euphysa aurata displayed clear DVM and, like Proboscidactyla menoni, were found at greater depths than the other species. The depth distribution and amplitude of migration varied between surveys for most species, so definitive interpretations of patterns could not be made.

Abstract: A new species of Magelonidae, Magelona debeerei sp. nov., is described and illustrated from grab-samples collected at <100moff the southwest coast of Africa. Magelona debeerei sp. nov. has previously been identified from the region as M. papillicornis (Müller, 1858) by Day (1955, 1961, 1967) but differs from M. papillicornis sensu stricto by possessing dorsal medial lobes on chaetigers 4–8 and lateral pouches (Σ configuration) between chaetigers 10 and 11. Three species of Magelona have now been recorded from southern Africa (M. capensis Day, 1961, M. cincta Ehlers, 1908 and M. debeerei sp. nov.), and a key to Magelona from this region is provided.

Hart, Genevieve (Library and Information Association of South Africa, 2010)[more][less]
Abstract: The article reflects on a case study of a group of six school-based dual use libraries in rural South Africa – focusing specifically on their community role. Its starting point is the library and information services (LIS) Transformation Charter's vision of public libraries that play a meaningful role in the attainment of the Millennium Development Goals. The study employed a mix of data gathering methodologies – interviews, observation and analysis of documents. The key question that emerges from the study relates to the rather low usage of the libraries by the adults in the surrounding villages. All six libraries claim to provide "access" but it is not clear what they provide access to. The study suggests that a sharper focus on their community information services is required. More leadership, staff education and focused programming might enable the libraries to fulfil their exciting potential. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10566/250 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: The relevance of the Non-Aligned Movement has been in question since the end of Cold War bipolarity. In the post-Cold War order, whether interpreted as cosmopolitan, unipolar, multipolar or globalised in nature, there are still challenges to the main purpose of the Non-Aligned Movement, which can be defined as the pursuit of self-determination and development for so-called Third World states. The rise of China is impacting on the current world order, possibly returning it to a kind of bipolarity, which the Non-Aligned Movement members can exploit. In addition, the 'Beijing Consensus' may provide new terms on which developing countries can be integrated into the global economy in a way that would accommodate and encourage their development.

Great Tutorial!! My goal for this year is to get comfortable in photoshop, and your tutorials have helped me out so much already. Thank you for that!
During spring and summer you're bound to end up with some of these sunflare backlight shots at the end of the day. Sometimes they're just inevitable. But all is not lost, and you can actually use the sunflare to your advantage. Make it work for you. Enhance it, so you'll get a real summery feel to your shot. You just have to slightly edit them and exaggerate the effect to make it seem like you didn't mess up when shooting the photo, but more like you knew what you were doing! You were going for artistic! That'll be your story and stick to it.
Here's my SOOC. I thought it had potential so I didn't toss it, but it definitely needs a little work.
Create a duplicate layer by clicking CTRL + J, and name it something like Copy.
I'm going for a curves tweak. Open an adjustment layer in the bottom of the layers palette (the yin/yang icon), and choose Curves from the menu.
Just grab the curve line with your mouse and drag it up in four different places, as I did.
That lit things up alright, but things look a little washed out now. I don't like washed out, so let's throw in some contrast.
Simply set the layer style to Soft Light and you get an instant contrast boost. Play with the opacity. I left mine at 100%.
But I want even more warmth—if we're gonna fake it, let's go all the way. Open yet another curves adjustment layer, like you did before. This time set the preset to Custom.
In order to up the golden tones that are part of a sunset, we have to cut the blue. Blue down, yellow up, that's how it goes. So switch from RGB to blue channel.
And drag the blue line down until you have a golden warmth that works for your photo. Keep it realistic, though.
This technique gives you the best of both worlds. You keep it real, light it up, and bring out the details while you maintain that summery look and feel.
This can actually create gorgeous photos when the sun flare is combined with playing children or animals. Never be afraid to use sunlight in your images, or do something out of the ordinary when you have Photoshop.
Great Tutorial!! My goal for this year is to get comfortable in photoshop, and your tutorials have helped me out so much already. Thank you for that!
fabulous! what a big difference this makes! i love the soft light feature!
This might be a dumb question but why do you create a duplicate layer and then open two adjustment layers? Then do you have to flatten them to achieve the finished product? I'm so confused, which is mostly my normal state of mind. :)
