'Town crier' radio thrives
The sound of music fills a radio studio on a Saturday afternoon. Children's tiny voices sing Christian songs.
As David Ventura fades out the music and turns on the microphone, the voice of pastor George Contreras travels across the airwaves throughout central Virginia. The music and voices originate in Henrico County. In January 2012, WBTK 1380 AM radio moved from Richmond to studios in the Glenside area. The station's tower has always been in Lakeside. While based in Henrico County, the station hopes to appeal to Hispanic listeners and others from around the region who want to hear Christian songs, a mix of Spanish music and family-friendly programs. "All of the music that we play, all the programming that we play, it is all targeted toward the family," said Glen Motto, operations manager. "The lyrics of all of the songs are going to be safe." Motto said the station changed formats six years ago. The owners realized the region's Hispanic community was growing. "Henrico is the sixth largest county in Virginia in terms of Hispanic population," Motto said. "When you include Chesterfield and Richmond, the Hispanic population nears 50,000." Radio stations play a central role in Hispanic communities in the U.S. and in Latin American countries. Felipe Korzenny of The Center for Hispanic Marketing Communications at Florida State University writes in his blog that radio traditionally serves "as the town-crier in an interactive way" and the "radio announcer publicizes jobs…and spreads the word about local events." That's exactly what drew WBTK announcer Oscar Contreras to the station. Contreras, who lives in Henrico County, didn't expect to be working at a radio station. He came to Richmond to study film and photography at Virginia Commonwealth University after his family moved to Culpeper from Guatemala. But one day in his car, he heard the new radio station. He liked what he heard and called to apply for a job. He's been at the station since then. Contreras considers the station a community resource offering such programs as "Focus on the Community," which airs each Monday. "When I came into the radio [station, it] was in my heart to do a community show where we can inform people about what's going on in the region, events, the services, have interviews with different experts on different topics," he said. "We open the lines and people call; people ask questions." The station works with local governments and nonprofit agencies to share information with its Hispanic listeners. And of course the station connects advertisers with what Motto calls an "underserved market." Most of the music and programs are in Spanish, but long-time announcer "Brother Herb" Pollard hosts a morning show Monday through Friday in English. On a recent Friday morning, Pollard played religious songs and testimonials interspersed with weather and traffic reports. Pollard, who is black, said one of his roles is to encourage his listeners. Another role he has taken on is to help build bridges between the area's Hispanic and African-American communities. "I bridge the gap between two cultures," Pollard said. "I try to do it by music and by communication. I show equal love to all cultures."

Despite all the warnings, workplace harassment still exists
Blog Entry:
April 30, 2013 4:30 AM | Author: ANDREA STONE
Andrea Stone
is an associate in the labor and employment group at Cleveland-based
Walter | Haverfield LLP
If you think stricter regulations and workplace policies may have made workplace harassment a thing of the past, think again. Sexual harassment in the workplace continues to be a pervasive and costly problem. And now it has evolved from the physical to the cyber world. Cyber sexual harassment is unique with respect to the speed and ease with which rumors, taunts and slurs can be disseminated to the target employee through social media. This opens the door for inappropriate behavior, creating a growing concern for employers in protecting employees from potential sexual harassment.
An employer's focus on sexual harassment should change with the times, addressing the use of social media channels, such as YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, texting, and workplace e-mail. Yes, it's not just the kids that are "sexting." This type of cyber sexual harassment is hitting the adult workplace in full force. According to a recent government study, as much as 23% of all workplace harassment is perpetrated by text, e mail or other cyber methods.
This recent increase in cyber sexual harassment can be linked to the pervasive availability of cyber technology devices which have facilitated many instances of sexual harassment. For example, cyber sexual harassment may occur when an employee forwards an e-mail joke with sexual content or accesses pornographic websites at work and then shares the content with other employees. It may also occur when an employee becomes a "cyber-stalker," continually sending messages via e-mail, text or an instant message platform to another employee requesting dates or communicating lewd messages.
Under normal circumstances, physical sexual harassment in the workplace can be relatively difficult for employees to prove turning into a "he said," "she said" scenario. In the case of cyber sexual harassment, a written record of the harassment is developed that is indisputable. In essence, it becomes an "e-smoking gun" in the court of law. For example, in Strauss v. Microsoft Corp., the district court held that jokes and sexual parodies, in combination with other remarks e-mailed by a supervisor to employees, were admissible and relevant evidence of sexual harassment.
Prevention is crucial in eliminating sexual harassment in the workplace. Employers should provide specific policies addressing sexual harassment, which include defining appropriate use of e-mail, company computer systems and electronic technology usage. Further, employers should review and discuss such policies with all employees, making it explicitly clear that harassment will not be tolerated. Moreover, employers should have open communication with their employees, creating an environment in which employees feel free to raise concerns and are confident those concerns will be addressed.
Finally, employers should establish a transparent complaint process through which management responds immediately and appropriately to the employee complaint. This duty may include investigating an employee's virtual comment made in his/her own time about a co-worker if the employer has knowledge of the behavior. For instance, in Blakey v. Continental Airlines, the Court indicated that a plaintiff can establish an actionable claim for harassment based upon electronic communications made outside the workplace if the electronic medium would be "the equivalent of a bulletin board in the pilot's lounge." In Blakey, defamatory and sexually harassing material was posted on an electronic bulletin board, which the employer had notice of, and failed to appropriately investigate the behavior.
To avoid liability in a sexual harassment suit, employers should review their anti-harassment policy frequently to ensure they are up-to-date with the latest workplace trends and technologies, e.g., computers, cell phones and social media venues. Employers should consult legal counsel before making changes to employee handbooks to avoid unexpected legal troubles.

The smoke finally clears at the Teracotta Town Pokemon Contest and the winner is revealed--it is a tie between May and Ash! Both are declared the winner with only one prize medal between the two, so Sceptile cuts it neatly in half. That night, during dinner, May announces her intention to go to Johto and compete in Pokemon Contests. She doesn't want Max to come, though, because she'd depend on her brother too much. Max is sad, but Ash cheers him up by promising to battle someday.
May and Max board a ship headed to Hoenn and wave goodbye until the ship is out of view. Ash and Brock also separate, with Ash rushing home to eat. Team Rocket watches the two boys, but they are too demoralized to do anything. They psych themselves up just in time to catch an Electivire in a net. Ash runs over to help the Electric-type Pokemon, but Gary shows up and orders it to escape with Iron Tail. Gary sends the thieves blasting off, and though Ash wants to battle, Gary would just rather go back to Professor Oak's lab. Ash then heads home.
Back at the Ketchum household, no one is there to greet Ash, so he goes to Oak's lab instead. It seems quiet there until everyone jumps out to surprise him. Ash gives his Battle Frontier symbols to his mom Delia to keep, and challenges Gary to a battle. Outside, Electivire and Pikachu face off with similar move sets until Electivire manages to knock out Pikachu with a Protect and ThunderPunch combo. Gary then leaves, returning to Sinnoh. Ash decides he wants to go to Sinnoh as well. That night, Delia makes Ash some new clothes, and the next morning, he leaves with just Pikachu at his side. However, Ash's Aipom sneaks on board the boat to Sinnoh and meets up with him. Unknown to any of them, Team Rocket has stowed away as well.

Latest capacity auction spurs abundance of questions
Blog Entry:
June 21, 2013 4:30 AM | Author: WILLIAM BOWEN
William M. Bowen is professor of public administration and urban studies at the Maxine Goodman Levin College of Urban Affairs at Cleveland State University. He's also associate editor of the International Journal of Energy Technology and Policy.
PJM Interconnection
, the regional transmission organization that serves the Cleveland area's electric system, recently completed an auction used to determine wholesale prices for the electric generation capacity needed to serve the anticipated electric load in its service area beginning in the 2016 delivery year.
The good news coming from that auction is that in our local ATSI (American Transmission Systems Inc.) zone, capacity prices have been substantially reduced in comparison to those for 2015. The bad news is that they are still approximately twice those found in the rest of the PJM service area.
Here are some of the many questions I've heard come up in discussion about these newly determined prices:
Are the newly set prices in the ATSI zone excessive?
Will many millions of dollars of avoidable costs flow from ratepayers' pockets into the coffers of
FirstEnergy Corp.
Does FirstEnergy get too much market power from the scale of its operations, enabling it to obtain artificially inflated prices to pay for frivolities such as the $20 million-plus compensation package for their CEO and $100 million for the naming rights on Cleveland's football stadium?
Did the 2016 prices go down relative to those for 2015 as a result of a belief by FirstEnergy that they overreached in 2015, and that the effect was to provide fodder for the arguments made by the proponents of distributed generation and those who oppose their efforts to roll back the efficiency standards in Senate Bill 221?
These are difficult questions to answer. And they are only a subset of a much large set of open and debatable questions that we as a society have to answer about restructuring, competition and regulatory reform in the electricity sector.
Some of those questions are as follows:
Do consumers in the areas in which restructuring has occurred pay unjust and unreasonable rates, with little discernible benefit, while at the same time existing generators receive unwarranted windfalls?
To what extent have the reforms achieved the lowest reasonable cost of service?
Is the restructured and deregulated electric power industry meeting appropriate public policy goals such as ensuring that electricity prices send signals that will give consumers the incentives to use electricity wisely, supporting ongoing efforts to increase energy security, and playing a lead role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions so as to achieve atmospheric stabilization goals?
Given that the full competitive electricity market reform program has not yet been implemented in large areas of the southern and western portions of the United States, will electricity market reform stabilize and serve the entire country well?
Certainly the development of competitive electricity markets has brought numerous cost-reducing successes in the face of rising fossil fuel prices. And it has also continued providing reliable service.
But at the same time, it is a misnomer to say that the capacity auctions establish truly competitive "market" pricing.
If you look closely at the way they operate, I think you'll agree that they do not produce actual, interactive rivalry among suppliers seeking to obtain capacity payments, as anyone would expect who clearly understands how a "market" as such operates. The existing framework also falls considerably short of fully protecting consumers from vulnerability to the use of market power by large-scale suppliers.
While the reformed electric regulatory framework undoubtedly has some advantages relative to the older and more traditional one, it has serious and continuing problems worthy of widespread discussion and debate. For now, at least, we in the ATSI zone have a disproportionately large stake in finding suitable solutions.

Raw pumpkin crumble recipe
Prep Time
10 min -
Total Time
10 min -
Shelf Life
Store separately in fridge -
5/5 (from 6 ratings)5 -
8 servings
Pumpkin filling
- 1 cup pumpkin (chopped)
- 1/2 cup dates
- 1/8 cup water
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup (or agave nectar or honey)
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 cup dried coconut
- 1 cup pecans (or walnuts)
- 1/4 cup dates
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries (optional)
Recipe Directions
- 1. Place all "pumpkin filling" ingredients into blender and blend until well combined. Set aside.
- 2. Re: "crumble," briefly process coconut, nuts and salt until pecans are reduced in size.
- 3. Add dates and continue to process until mixture is coarse meal that still looks fluffy. Do not over-process. (You may still see small dark chunks of dates, but that's okay.)
- 4. Optional: Once crumble is done, you can optionally add in your dried cranberries for additional festive color.
- 5. Once you are ready to eat, combine as you wish (see pics). Generally, the crumble should go on TOP because it won't get soggy as quickly.
The Rawtarian's Thoughts
By The RawtarianHere's a perfect Halloween, Thanksgiving or Christmas treat that can be whipped up super quickly. No prep or waiting required!
Some warnings for ya!
Do not combine the fruit with the crumble mixture until you are ready to eat!! Otherwise everything will get soggy. Avoid assembling the two until *immediately* before eating. Leftovers should be stored separately - one container for crumble, another container for the pumpkin mixture. Feel free to make both items and store them in the fridge in advance though.
I love cinnamon, I mean, I am BONKERS for cinnamon. But PLEASE listen to my cinnamon measurement. Stick to the 1/2 teaspoon. Don't over-do it! Thank you.

Cat's Review
Raw pumpkin crumble recipe
I used half a cup of hazelnuts and half cup of pecans and layered with raspberries, strawberries and yogurt......very yummy.
What's the serving size for this recipe?
I didn't have pecans so I used cashews & it was really good. My husband even liked this recipe which was shocking.
I made the raw pumpkin purée .I didn't know how raw pumpkin would taste in a dessert, but it is delicious! I will be putting it together with the crumble tomorrow.
This looks so delicious! I've been trying to incorporate a lot more raw foods into my diet and this is a recipe that I will definitely try very soon!
pinning! :)

Raw pumpkin crumble recipe
I just made this and it is absolutely delish! Although I cheated a little because I used canned pure, I am not sure I understand how to make raw pumpkin pure?
Hi Renee!
I've written the directions here: :)
Thank you!! I realized what you meant by Pie Pumpkin after I posted, the Frenchy had never heard of Pie Pumpkin :)
I want to make this. Just got one question though. The recipe calls for 1/4 dates, but it doesn't say if that is in cups.
This looks like it would be awesome with some pumpkin pie spice in the puree?

I really like their games, especially Victoria II.
Phoronix: Crusader Kings 2 Game Ships For Linux On Steam
The popular "Crusader Kings 2" game is now available with native Linux support and is available for digital download through Valve's Steam Linux client...
I really like their games, especially Victoria II.
Is that the full gameplay ? If so it really sucks.
I hope they'll release Cities in Motion 2 for Linux. I asked about Linux support in their forums ~ 3 months ago and I think they are considering it. They didn't promise anything, but I was responded with this:
So, there is still some hopeThanks for the feedback! Taking on a new platform is always more work than just the porting and publisher is the one to make these calls, but let's see what we can do
well this sux would not have time to read Phoronix for the few months
Anyone tried it with the Radeon FOSS drivers yet?
I did with mesa 9.0.1 (HD 4850) and at least the maps are black.
Not sure if it works with 9.1 git/head.
Never heard of that game.
Made me think of Carta marina though.
First check ~/Documents/Paradox Interactive/Crusader Kings II/logs/error.log and other logs.
Probably it's problem with wrong macro in shader file.
STANDARDFUNCS_H__ macro is violates GLSL standard.
If you remove two first and last lines from /gfx/FX/standardfuncsgfx.fxh file map will probably show.
I posted this bug here:
forum.paradoxplaza.com /forum/showthread.php?658210-GLSL-Bad-macro-in-standardfuncsgfx.fxh
Sorry for broken link, but I know there is pre-moderation for posts with links from new accounts.
Please upload screenshots if game will work for you.
There is report from other forum: after removing wrong macro map is visible on Intel HD3000 with few bugs.
1 - without water and trees (performance quite high)
2 - with everything enabled (performance is low)
Probably game should be playable on some AMD cards with open source driver.

If AMD keeps this trend, the next Catalyst release will have LESS features than the previous one...and support for Corel Linux.
Phoronix: AMD Catalyst 9.7 For Linux Released
It's a bit late in the month, but AMD has just released the ATI Catalyst 9.7 driver update for Linux. Officially, the only new feature in Catalyst 9.7 is production support for Red Flag DT 7.0, but there are some bug-fixes too...
If AMD keeps this trend, the next Catalyst release will have LESS features than the previous one...and support for Corel Linux.
FRAK another useless release. Still no 2.6.29 support WTF!? .30 has been out for ages. Hopefully the 9.6's introduced video playback lock ups are gone...This is just so fraking frustrating...
And it's going to take at least a year until free drivers have any form of GL2 support (optimistic estimate, yeah been following this scene enough to know). This is just horrible situation...At the moment there're two choices neither works. Just horrible situation we AMD users are forced to live in.
This new driver was supposed to fix all and it's already been over a year and half and something as ordinary as video playback is still SHITE!
You know actually this is not horrible. It was horrible a year ago and now it's just sad. *sigh*

Been waiting a while for this, I literally just woke up and there it is.
Aside from kernel support, these drivers are getting better each time. The last 3 catalyst releases, have each allowed higher shader graphics settings in wine games without slowdowns. Now RandR is fixed, another bonus.
In another thread (yesterday) I was able to get directions about how to recover from a mismatch between kernel versions supported by fglrx 9.6 and the kernel installed. Fine. Thanks to those who replied.
But in looking over the release notes for this (9.7) driver I see the kernel requirements specified at 2.6 or higher. Well that isn't very helpful. If it said between 2.6.0 and 2.6.X where X is the highest kernel version actually supported, wouldn't that be useful?
Also, when I ran the installer, it seems that it would be elementary to check the version number and refuse to install a non-working driver.
Is that too naive? or what? It seems to me that it would be simple and useful to do that.
this version also doesnt seem to like the current 2.6.30 patches from the gentoo bug trackers.
what a dissapointment.
Hi Dave. The official "explanation" for the kernel version requirement noted as "2.6 or above" is here.
Of course it would be useful to know explicitely which kernels are supported, but consider that AMD's website *still* claims you must install 32-bits libs to use Catalyst if you have a x86_64 system (oh, but that means if only if you want to use 32-bit apps, go figure! ).
Btw, is not worth to patch KCL under Fedora 11. It will hang your Xserver randomly.
I guess the key point is that the support statements should be "AND-ed" not "OR-ed". We'll try to make that more clear.
I actually like this release very much.
The slow xv in window-mode is fixed :-)
Wine runs better -> No crashes anymore.
Keep up the good work AMD/ATI. Well, the we would like to have kernel 2.6.30, but fortunately there is good patches around.

Integration of gender concerns into the planning and design of agricultural censuses and surveys The adoption of a gender perspective in agricultural censuses or surveys has to be decided in the first stages of planning of the agricultural census or survey, because it has significant implications in terms of topics covered, census and surveys operations such as data collection design and training of field staff, and, at a later stage, data analysis and dissemination. An analysis of agricultural censuses undertaken in Africa in the 2000 census round showed, for example, that the production of statistics on gender and agriculture is improved when the need for gender statistics is incorporated into the objectives and scope of the censuses (FAO Regional Office for Africa, 2005). The analysis also showed that the process of obtaining gender statistics improves when potential users of gender statistics, with clear demands of specific data, are involved in the preparation of the censuses.
Coverage of all relevant units of enumeration Gender bias in data collection can be introduced by improper coverage of all relevant units of enumeration. The unit of enumeration in agricultural censuses and surveys is the agricultural holding. An agricultural holding is an economic unit of agricultural production under single management, comprising all livestock kept and all land used wholly or partly for agricultural production purposes, without regard to title, legal form or size (FAO, 2007). There are two types of agricultural holdings: (a) holdings in the household sector – that is, those operated by household members; and (b) holdings in the non-household sector, such as corporations and government institutions. Proper coverage of the household sector is the most important from the perspective of generating gender statistics. The exclusion of small holdings, a sub-sector where women and family members play a particularly important role, can be a drawback of agricultural censuses or surveys. When holdings below a certain size and/or holdings located in urban or peri-urban areas are excluded from censuses and surveys, women's contribution to agricultural production may be underestimated. In addition, these excluded holdings could be playing an important role in food production and food security. The inclusion of all units relevant to agricultural production needs to be considered when preparing the frame of agricultural holdings in the household sector and when designing the sampling frame for agricultural surveys. In particular, frames based on administrative sources where women are less likely than men to have their holdings registered can introduce significant gender-bias in data obtained. Gender differentials also need to be considered when deciding the stratification variables in the sampling design of agricultural surveys. When necessary, oversampling in one or more strata should be considered to allow for an adequate number of both women- and men-operated holdings in each stratum.
Adequate units of data collection and analysis Comprehensive coverage of gender issues in agricultural censuses and surveys requires the use of multiple units both in the data collection stage as well as in the data analysis stage. As noted before, the unit of enumeration in agricultural censuses and surveys is the agricultural holding. Many censuses and surveys collect most of the data at the level of agricultural holding. For example, data on inputs for agricultural production, such as seeds or pesticides, are usually purchased for the whole holding and therefore they are collected at the level of the holding. Other examples of items usually collected at the holding level are the use of irrigation or use of agricultural machinery. However, it may be necessary to collect and analyse data at intra-holding level in order to get a true picture on gender issues. Data on farm labour, especially data on participation of household members in activities of agricultural production, can be better captured at individual level, along with data on sex, age, marital status, educational attainment, or other characteristics related to the type and amount of work performed on the farm or for other business. Depending on the country, data on land use and livestock are sometimes more suitable to be collected for smaller units within the holding. For example, data on land use are often collected at the level of parcels or plots that compose a holding. More general, data can be collected at the sub-holding level. A sub-holding is defined as a single agricultural activity or group of activities managed by a particular person or group of persons (sub-holders) in the holder's household on behalf of the agricultural holder. There may be one or more sub-holdings in a holding. A sub-holding could comprise a single plot, a whole field, a whole parcel, or even the whole holding. A sub-holding could also be a livestock operation associated with a plot, field or parcel, or a livestock operation without any land. The collection of data on crops and livestock at the more disaggregated level may be preferred for several reasons. First, collecting data at the level of parcels or plots reduces the errors in reporting. This is especially the case when agricultural households work on several different plots of land, and different individuals are in charge of each plot or crop; or, when some household members are responsible for herds that are separated from those of the main holder. Gathering the data at plot level and herd level may appear as more time consuming. However, when data are collected at the whole farm level, the respondents may have by themselves to add up the information on different plots to come up with the required answer, increasing the chances for non sampling errors like reporting errors. The quality of data improves when women and men in charge of each plot or crop respond separately to questions about the plots or crops for which they are responsible. The operator of each plot is more likely to know specific details about the size and quality of the plot, how much time each household member has spent working on various tasks on that particular plot. Second, plots from the same holding may differ in terms of land quality, the degree of land degradation and erosion, and the data collected at their level may explain differences in agricultural production. Finally, disaggregated data at the level of sub-holdings are crucial for understanding gender roles and decision-making within the agricultural holding. It is, however, to be noted that in most cases the application of sub-holding concept on the ground poses many practical challenges and increases the cost of data collection. Before deciding to apply this concept for large scale survey like an agricultural census a careful evaluation of social customs and cost-benefits of using this concept is recommended.
Questionnaire design Gender-specific conceptual and measurement issues related to the topics covered in agricultural censuses and surveys have to be adequately reflected in the design of questionnaires used (see box 3.3 for a checklist of the main points that should be taken into account in designing questionnaires). It is important, from a gender perspective, that the questionnaire corresponding to the household sector is structured by the needed level of data collection. In that respect, different modules may be designed for different levels of data collection and/or different topics. For example, data collected at individual level may be covered by a module on demographic, social and economic characteristics of household members, including involvement in agricultural and non-agricultural economic activities on and off the holding; and a module on characteristics of non-family agricultural labour. Identification of the owners of agricultural resources and sub-holders may also be based at data collected at the level of individual household members. Some other modules of the questionnaire, such as those on livestock or land use, may be designed to collect data at sub-holding level with the possibility of identification of the sub-holder. The implementation of the sub-holding/sub-holder concepts, important from a gender perspective, may be complex. The approach used by a country will depend on national agricultural practices and social and cultural conditions, taking into consideration the data collection methodology already existing or suitable. For example, when countries have the practice of collecting data on crops at the plot level and data on livestock at the herd level, it is relatively straightforward to identify the women and men who are in charge of those parcels and herds (sub-holders). Alternatively, a smaller set of items can be collected at the level of sub-holdings separately from the main crop and livestock data, by asking specific questions about the type of crop and livestock activities carried out under the control of the sub-holder.
Members of the team designing the questionnaires have been trained in gender issues and gender-specific measurement issues related to family and non-family farm labour and role of women as managers of holdings and sub-holdings.
For the household sector, there is a clear indication of the items to be collected at holding level, at sub-holding level, or at individual level of household members and hired labourers. If possible, identification of holders, sub-holders and owners allow the link with the individual characteristics of the household members.
When identifying the sub-holders, use a series of questions about each household member to find out about the types of work each carried out on the holding and their role in managing agricultural production activities.
Use of a series of questions instead of one question to identify the household members owning by themselves or jointly with another person parcels/plots of land, livestock by type, and agricultural machinery.
Avoid language suggesting that holder or sub-holders are male.
When measuring economic activity, the question should have a note for the interviewers indicating the use of activity lists (provided in the manual) and follow up probing questions.
Language in the questionnaire should be carefully used to avoid that the agricultural work of women is perceived and reported as housework rather than as economic activity.
If household head needs to be identified, a short note on the questionnaire should indicate the criteria of identification
Selection and training of the field staff The quality of data collected in agricultural censuses and surveys (similar to other data collection programmes) depends on the quality of staff selected and the training provided. Box 3.4 presents a list of factors that should be taken into account when incorporating a gender perspective in the preparation of manuals and training of interviewers for agricultural censuses and surveys. It should be noted that men are greatly overrepresented among field staff in agricultural censuses and surveys, often as a result of using as interviewers workers in agricultural extension services who are predominantly men. In general, it is important that both women and men are selected as interviewers and supervisors, and both women and men are trained to obtain quality data from both female and male respondents. In particular, the recruitment of women operators should be seriously considered in countries where women farmers do not feel free to talk directly to male enumerators due to cultural factors.
Identify the key gender issues prevailing in the agricultural sector in the country of interest.
Gender training should emphasize gender-related objectives and goals of the census.
Gender training should increase awareness about the role of women in managing holdings and sub-holdings.
Both women and men are selected as training instructors and as trainers presented in audio-visual materials.
Interviewers women and men should be trained to interview persons of the same sex and of the opposite sex.
The language and examples given in the manuals or training materials with regard to identification of agricultural holders and sub-holders and the household head are free of gender-based biases.
Manuals and training materials provide examples on identifying joint agricultural holders.
Manuals and training materials should show examples for identifying the real decision maker in the farm. In particular, persons who are usually absent from the household should not be declared as household head or agricultural holder.
Training provides guidelines in obtaining information from women and men in charge of each plot or crop.
When collecting data on economic activity, provide in the manuals lists of economic activities, including lists of own-account productive activities and probing lists, to avoid underreporting of women's economic activity. Training should emphasize problems and stereotypes associated with women's work.
Census advertising The census advertising is an important tool for improving the census coverage, in particular, of small holdings managed by women, and the reporting of women's agricultural activity. The presentations prepared for advertising should illustrate both women's and men's contribution to agricultural production. The choice of type of media should take into account the fact that women may have easier access to some types of media than others. For example, in certain groups of population, women are more likely than men to be illiterate. Women may be easier to reach by radio programmes targeted at women or by use of graphics in places where women tend to gather together.
Data collection instruments should be designed to allow the recording of multiple agricultural and non-agricultural economic activities on and off the holding. Specific questions on primary and secondary activities should be included and the reference period should be long enough to capture seasonal and occasional work. It is useful to identify agricultural labour separately from non-agricultural labour and/or to ask specific questions about any job during the agricultural season that is related to agriculture (including jobs that are not the main job).
Collecting data at sub-holding level can highlight gender differences in involvement of family and non-family labourers in particular agricultural activities or on particular parcels or plots. Women tend to be more often than men involved in multiple activities, working on their own plot, on their husband's holding, seasonally as paid labourer in other holdings, and even in other non-agricultural jobs. Even within the same agricultural activity, women and men concentrate in one or another of the various stages of production.
Collection of information on economic activity should cover all forms of unpaid work, including subsistence activities –such as fetching water and fuel wood, gathering wild fruits and berries, and processing of primary products for self-consumption. Women's activities are often perceived as domestic and reproductive rather than economic and productive. However, these activities are an important input to the agricultural production. The definition adopted in data collection should adhere to international standards and include all forms of work falling within the production boundary of System of National Accounts (SNA). The data collection should use lists of agricultural activities or probing questions related to economic and productive activities that are usually perceived as domestic work. It is also important that the questions are carefully formulated to avoid the introduction of gender-based biases.
The role of women needs to be adequately acknowledged in identifying the agricultural holder and properly reflected in the concepts used, questionnaire design, manuals and training materials. At conceptual level, the agricultural holder is defined as the person who makes major decisions regarding resource use and exercises management control over the agricultural holding operation (FAO, 2007). A gender bias in reporting the agricultural holder occurs when the role of women in decision-making is not taken into account. Often, the decision-making process on the holding is complex and it involves more than one person, men as well as women. However, because of inadequate concept of the holder, gender-biased attitude of respondents and enumerators or insufficient training, it is more likely that only a male senior holder is identified. For the 2010 round of agricultural censuses, FAO has modified the concept of agricultural holder to include a group of persons, for example husband and wife. If more than one person is involved in major decision-making, each of those persons should be considered as a joint holder. Also, a joint holder can come from the same household or from a different household. Manuals and training materials should prevent other sources of gender bias in identification of the main agricultural holder. The agricultural holder is often inadequately considered to be the same person as the household head. For example, a person in the household may be identified as a head, because of his or her overall authority and responsibility in the household; however, that person may not be actively involved in the household's agricultural operations or may not be responsible for the holding. The use of concept of household head in itself may trigger gender bias, in the sense that women may be considered heads of their household only when no adult male is present. Furthermore, persons who are usually absent from the household may be declared as the main agricultural holder or as the main household head, either because of their role in providing input for the agricultural production (income or land, for example) or simply because of cultural representations of men as having potential more decision-making power than women. In the questionnaire design, a single question on who is the main decision-maker for the holding is often insufficient to identify the main holder. Instead, a series of questions about each household member, their work on the holding, and their role in managing the holding, may be needed. A similar approach is based on the use of sub-holding/sub-holder concepts. Rather than identifying the holder directly, the information obtained for each sub-holder can afterwards be used to determine the primary decision-maker on the holding.
Data should be collected at sub-holding/sub-holder level as much as possible. The concept of an agricultural holder as the major decision-maker for the holding may not provide a realistic picture of the often complex decision-making processes of the holding. Often, different members of the household take responsibility for managing particular aspects of the operations of the holding. Sometimes, women carry out specific activities such as cultivating particular land plots or managing particular livestock activities. There may also be different levels of management; for example, one person may make the strategic decisions ("this year we plant potatoes"), while other people are responsible for operational decisions such as when to plant, who to employ, and how to market. Thus, the concept of agricultural holder alone may not adequately reflect the management of the holding, and, in particular, it may fail to recognize the role of women in managing agricultural activities. To overcome this problem, the concepts of "sub-holding" and the associated "sub-holder" have been introduced in by FAO for the 2010 census round. A sub-holder is defined as the person responsible for managing a sub-holding (a parcel, a plot, a livestock operation, an agricultural activity or group of activities) on the holder's behalf. The sub-holder concept is broadly similar to the concepts of "plot manager" and "farm operator" used in some countries. If sub-holdings are identified, each sub-holder should provide the information for the sub-holding he/she is responsible for. If the household head is the sole respondent of the question, this may have an impact on the accuracy of the responses concerning assets and work undertaken by the other sub-holders of the holding.

After the interview there have been 1 topic dominating Darkfall forums, should everyone be able to craft everything or should it be restrictions? Best poll so far inform us that players want restictions and it is a landslide win - http://forums.darkfallonline.com/showthread.php?t=334728 Dedicated crafters would bring more subscribers and a larger variety of players, not just the PvP interested ones. A ingame economy would be another good side-effect. The game of today will have a very limited economy at best. I believe Aventurine didnt realize the negativ effect their choice of keeping a failed crafting system. Lets hope we will see some major changes to the crafting system in near future. It need developer priority. |
Dedicated crafters vs. dedicated combat players. The way combat players have it is currently they can master all roles, but only play as one at a time. So there is a huge diversity in playstyle for the combat player. Now you have someone playing the game only to craft and play the market. Limit him/her to only 1 mastery, and they are useless to create other forms of items. Depending on what type of limit that is it could mean a lot of things. For instance if it was one mastery per character... well that's one mastery per account. That's a pretty strict crafting system. It would always allow more players to master crafting who aren't dedicated crafters. The way they set it up now is much better because as a combat player it will take a lot of time that you won't want to spend crafting in order to master all roles. However a dedicated crafter will have them all mastered and be 'the dedicated crafter' they want to be, able to craft everything that's possible. Also that 'landslide' win is a horrrrrrrrrrrrrrriiiiiiibbbbbbllllleeeeee sample size. 55 people voted in that thread. The data is completely useless. |
Originally posted by Murdus It wont take alot of time to master the combat character. A couple of weeks and your done with one of them, a couple of months and you have them all. When you mastered all what will you the increase? Crafting of course. That mean everyone will in near future after release master both all combat characters and crafting. There is many interesting ideas on how a future crafting system should work out and this is the best one i seen so far from ManiShakibPour - http://forums.darkfallonline.com/showthread.php?t=334728&page=2- After thinking about this issue quite a bit I'd like to see a crafting specialization system, the same way you choose to specialize as a warrior, elementalist, skirmisher or primalist. It might be ok if everyone can craft some basic stuff but for more advanced items I think you should have to sacrifice something in order to make them. You have two schools you can choose from, now with this system you could for example be a battle brand/crafter combo or an air magic/crafter combo. Also in order to avoid abusing the system I think there should be a really long cooldown if you want to switch from the crafter role. Or if you switch from the crafter role you would lose your mastery skills attached to that role and have to retrain them if you switched back again. |
What you don't realize here aragon is that aventurine aren't building a game for crafters. If I had to guess I would say they really don't care what a "dedicated crafter's" perspective even is. The reason being is that in Darkfall you cannot just be a crafter, maybe one guy here or there but thats it. The reason being is you need resources to make stuff. You will have to go farm up the stuff to be able to make stuff. This means venturing out into the world and having to deal with pvp. Yes, this is a pvp game and in order to craft you will have to pvp. I don't think you guys realize how many resources will be needed to grind up crafting skills, and especially in the early stages of the game where resources are very rare (competitive). Yes eventually you will be able to make everything, but this is going to take you a long long time and tons and tons of resources to do. A "dedicated" crafter will have quit the game long before they max out all the crafting disciplines because of the resources (and methods to get said resources) that will be necessary. If you think your guild is just going to "feed" you resources to grind then good luck to you, but any guild that does so is being extremely foolish and shortsighted, for having only one person that can make said items makes you dependant on that one person being around, not getting bored, and not guild hopping. Crafting is just one of those things that is there for everyone to use and "eventually" max, its not designed nor intended for its own playstyle and if you try to only craft you will fail miserably and quit the game in disgust without ever actually even playing the game. On top of all this one of the core principles of DF is that anything in the world is craftable by anyone, making crafting much more restrictive would only hurt this philosophy. TLDR: Trying to implement crafting restrictions is a silly waste of everyone's time. |

Putting restrictions on crafting is fine for me, hell most of the pvpers will be concerned with pvping and sieging. Seiging takes a good bit of resources. To me the only problem with specialized crafting is it is dependent on player population. High pop it is all good, low pop getting things becomes tedious. Just really depends on the ebb and flow of the game,,,, hell i remember a time before housing an all that jazz. If they are faster than last time about putting in sandbox and crafting fluff then we shouldnt have a problem either way but who knows.
A sandbox has to be built by players before people can go out to destroy it. To me, crafters are essential to the genre. Ignoring that would only make it a big PvP free-for-all arena. If thats a sandbox, then so is Forge :).
Feel like trying Planetside 2? Get a headstart with the starter kit! |
none gives anything about crafting ingame believe me.. you can be a trader tho. which is fine.. the strenght of darkfall does not lie in the crafting system.. altho everything ingame can be crafted.. which is good a thing.. |
Unlikely, since game would be still centered on PVP with little space for crafters.
Be happy they are not trying to make crafting and economy worthwhile, it would be a disaster and lots of wasted development time. |
Originally posted by 123443211234 i dont agree with your summation. if everything is crafted then this tells me that the game,at least partly, centers around crafting (and, therefore, resource gathering... which in my opinion should ALSO be restricted like combat roles). In fact it kind of centers around crafting nearly as much as it centers around pvp... because everyone in that 50 v 50 pvp extravaganza doing that siege is wearing crafted gear, and fighting over (unless i'm mistaken) crafted property. Eve is the exact same way. it is a pvp game but also a crafting and mining game. the crafters do not get along with the pvpers (mostly) but one needs the other. if not for losing stuff in pvp nobody would need to craft, if nobody crafted no-one would have things to pvp with. CANT WE ALL JUS GET ALONG RIP Ribbitribbitt you are missed, kid.

Originally posted by itchmon Exactly. CCP has created the perfect symbiotic relationship between the PVPers and the PVEers. It's a bit strange that so few studios have attempted to implement a similar system when it works so well. I know the folks at AV are aware of EVE, what I do not know, is why they ignore the fact that they have a fantastic core game that would flow beautifully with EVE's system. It would add so much to their game and bring in many more subs. It's too bad. "Mr. Rothstein, your people never will understand... the way it works out here. You're all just our guests.

Originally posted by Gdemami UO was PvP centered and managed well to implement dedicated crafters and loads of other features. There is no problem adding a crafting system worth the name and it would not affect the PvP arena. Game would not change it¨s core design, what do you mean? |
Originally posted by Aragon100 aAventurine has always seemed very content with their somewhat limited full loot pvp nitch. I dioubt they will change to make the game more crafter centric which really would hurt some of the pvp'ers as not all could crafter everthing. Face it your barking up the wrong tree . i might not agree with Aventurine on alot of things but at least they have always held true to thier vision of thier game. They are not out to become a large game developer, by all actions and words they are just as happy to keep plugging along with a mere 10k players as long as they have enough money coming in to stay afloat. |
Originally posted by itchmon The game is not (even partialy) centeered around crafting. It is centered around full loot, and atht no item should mean very much that losing it should take away from free for all PVP. Restricting crafters restricts the easy replacement of items lost in PVP. your trying to put a whole new slant on things that isn't there and thats the developers don't want. Simply put the games about moments where you can say "Cool I beat that skilled player or I took on 3 at once and survived!", NOT moments of "Oh My god I better not take any chances and lose my +3 gold pants cratfer xxx made me for a arm and a leg." Eve and Df are 2 different games. Eve has secure areas where players and farmers can go and AFK mine to there hearts content. Unless one really needs something in low sec, mining and craftering is really for those too busy reading a book or watching tv to really play. DF doesn't ave such safe zones for such crap |
Originally posted by Aragon100 No, you are wrong. DF was never meant to be a MMORPG. It's design has always been about an online RPG that revolves around PvP. Every game mechanic is designed to get the player back into the " fast paced " PvP. This is why crafting and the economy will never be prevalent in DF. This is why they wanted to add limbo to DF. This is why in development it was called DF Arena 2010. Players need to face the facts. DF:UW was not designed to be a MMORPG. |

I do not think the ability to craft anything without restrictions is that big of a deal. Most games seem to have a similar trend amongst the playerbase. A select few will be hardcore crafters, they will be the crafters who produce most of the equipment and yield a high profit. Most will craft only when they have time for it, using spare resources to craft every now and then. Many will not even touch crafting because a large portion of people are not crafters. Regardless, the highly dedicated crafters will exceed the rest. Now I do think limiting crafting can be useful, but it is not the major deal that people make it out to be. The major deal is how bad the mahirim look like creatures from the Tv Show Grimm... jk (but they do look like grimm creatures) "I see they watchin' me and takin' notes on my moves, Run up on me it's all I want I ain't got nothin' to lose." |
Originally posted by thinktank001 What are you talking about? "Its an Online RGP, but not a MMORPG???" Given the scope of many other MMOs, 10000 concurrent players seems rather massive. I fail to see how DF being PVP centric has any impact on it being a MMORPG, its still a large number of people interacting in a virtual world. |

Darkfall is on par with WoW regarding crafting. DF set out to offer a better gameplay..didn't it ?

Lester tries to deliver Red Sox series win over A's
Oakland's Anderson gets back on mound following sprained ankle
The Red Sox are atop the American League East mainly because of strong starting pitching.
Boston is 8-0 in games started by Jon Lester and Clay Buchholz. Lester will look to continue the streak on Wednesday, when he takes the mound in the rubber match of a three-game series against the Athletics at Fenway Park.
Lester has gone seven innings in each of his last three outings, allowing three runs total and striking out 16. Buchholz has four wins, tied for the most in the Major Leagues, and has gone at least seven innings in all of his starts.
"They've been everything we've needed because we've had other starts where a number of innings have had to be picked up by the bullpen," Red Sox manager John Farrell said. "So they give the bullpen a rest, we've won when they've walked to the mound, and I don't know that you can ask for anything more than what they've done. They're back to their levels of what they've done here previously."
The Red Sox took Monday's opener, 9-6, before the A's romped in the rain on Tuesday night for a 13-0, seven-inning victory to snap a four-game losing streak.
Brett Anderson is scheduled to start for Oakland despite leaving Friday's start against the Rays after the first inning because of a sprained right ankle. On Monday, the left-hander said he was "good to go for Wednesday."
Anderson threw a bullpen session on Sunday and was pleased by how his ankle responded.
"Everything is on schedule at this point for him," Oakland manager Bob Melvin said.
Anderson is 5-2 with a 2.70 ERA in eight career starts against the Red Sox. In four career starts at Fenway, he's 2-1 with a 4.09 ERA.
The Red Sox are 2-3 on their current 10-game homestand, while the A's are 1-4 on a six-game East Coast swing that ends Wednesday.
Athletics: Wells could make first start
Casper Wells made his A's debut on Tuesday and could be in the lineup on Wednesday with a left-hander on the mound. Wells was acquired on Monday from Toronto in exchange for cash.
In his first Major League action since Spring Training, Wells went 0-for-1 on Tuesday and played left field. He pinch-hit for Coco Crisp in the sixth inning.
Wells, 28, had been working out at a local high school in Seattle after being designated for assignment twice since the end of Spring Training.
"You have to keep a solid mindset, not let any outside distractions in or get off track from what you want to accomplish," Wells said. "I'm glad Oakland took a chance on me here."
Red Sox: Ortiz likely to return to lineup
David Ortiz was out of the lineup on Tuesday after starting three straight days since returning from the disabled list on Saturday.
Management is being cautious with the slugger, who missed 15 games with an injured right Achilles. Ortiz is expected to return to the lineup on Wednesday.
"How he's feeling, his guide in this and his involvement will go a long way in this," Farrell said. "I think we've got to build an occasional day off for him."
The Red Sox are 11-6 without Ortiz, but 2-1 when he's in the lineup. The designated hitter had two hits in his season debut on Saturday, three more on Sunday and went 1-for-4 with a double and two runs on Monday.
Worth noting
• Red Sox first baseman Mike Napoli is 4-for-10 (.400) in his career against Anderson with two doubles, one homer and four RBIs.
• The A's lead the Majors with 119 runs in 21 games.

This technique utilises the power of the Wood Release to forcibly suppress a tailed beast's chakra. To invoke this technique, it is necessary for the tailed beast or its jinchūriki to be in the possession of the Crystal Gem (結晶石, kesshōseki) that responds to the First Hokage's chakra. Touching the chakra of the tailed beast with their hand, the user then suppresses the chakra inside an area lined with ten pillars.[2]
Yamato also used this technique during Naruto's training to suppress the Nine-Tails' power. Here he produced the same "sit" (座, suwaru) kanji in his palm,[3] but instead of creating spiked pillars, created wooden pillars which were engraved and had what resembled foo dog faces and lit wicks on top of them. By slamming his palm on the ground, the wooden statues will then rush towards the beast and absorb its chakra.[4]
The last part of this technique's name, "Kakuan Nitten Suishu" (廓庵入鄽垂手), comes from a famous series of short poems and accompanying images, called the Ten Bull Pictures (十牛図, Jūgyū-zu, Chinese: Shíniú-tú). The pictures and poems are intended to illustrate the stages of Zen discipline.
They were drawn by a twelfth-century Chinese Zen master called Kuòān (廓庵, Japanese: Kakuan, Literally meaning: enclosed hermitage). The tenth poem talks about how the fully-enlightened herdsman returns to the city to help others reach enlightenment. This poem is called Rùchán Chuíshǒu (入鄽垂手, Japanese: Nitten Suishu), which can be translated as "entering society with bliss-bringing hands" (i.e. hands that teach how to reach enlightenment).
- After Naruto Uzumaki destroyed the gem in his six-tailed form, Yamato tried to suppress the fox chakra at the Falls of Truth, despite claiming earlier being unable to do so without the gem.[5][6][7]
- It is possible that this technique can be used on persons who are not jinchūriki, as Yamato did with Kisame Hoshigaki on the Island Turtle, while he was confined to stocks which also had lit ends.[8][9]

Holman Legislative Task Force Committee The State Capitoi Salt Lake City, Utah Dear Chairman Holman: Thank you for your loiter dated s.ry 1, 1955, referring to the report of "The Little Hoover Commission11 ana asking that I- meet with your coim.d.c:ao on Saturday, February 5, 1966 at four o'clock in the afternoon to present my reactions and commencS to tne rc^orc. Replying categorically to the questions outlined in 'your letter: No. 1 - What recommendations of Che Little Hoover Commission do you agree with? I heartily agree that many commissions and departments could and should be consolidated. As far as I have been able to determine from my study of the report and the charts showing plans for re-organization of state government, I agree chat it would be a great service to the state and a help to Che governor to consoli. oe under one Commissioner of Public Safety Services, one Highway Patrol, Motor Vehicles, defense, Civil Defense and Fire Marshall; to me it is consistent for all of those agencies to be under one director. A Commissioner of Health and Welfare Services could well handle the Welfare, Health, Mental Health-Re rdation, Employment Security, Corrections. Under doe Commissioner of Labor and Commerce Services, I cannot agree that the Liquor Control Commission should be directly under this control. I feel the liquor control is such a big department other consideration should be given for its individual control, Other departments mentioned, through consolidation of commissions possibly could mean a great improvement. Since receiving your letter, I have not had time to give thorough consideration co all facets, but I am sure many departments can be incorporated or merged together under the Executive Branch to the good and benefit of the state. / " .

Mosom Plus™ Car Covers by Coverking feature unique fabric design, perfect fitment and gorgeous look. Their four-layered material gives less chance to rips or leaking, though it is not suitable for extreme snow, ice or sun exposure. This non-woven material prevents the rips from spreading further even if they happen. The cotton flock inner layer delivers tender protection to the delicate car finish. Mosom Plus™ Car Covers by Coverking are tested and OEM approved.
Materials. Taking into consideration the decades of experience, Coverking designs its own fabrics, because the car cover quality depends greatly on the properties of the fabric used. The world's leading textile mills handle the custom fabric manufacturing for Coverking, based on the research of Coverking's team of engineers, that specify the exact material composition and construction needed for each type of a car cover produced. All fabrics for outdoor car covers are breathable to avoid the "greenhouse" effect if any water will get under the cover. Coverking was the first to bring colored materials and two-tone designs, supplying the materials that withstand the effects of the sun and don't fade.
Pattern Fit and Design. Coverking does not save on material types used, spending approximately 30 yards of fabric on average car cover they produce. Other companies often use "chopped up" patterns to save around 20% of materials to the prejudice of style, resulting in "patchwork" look. Not to mention the fact that extra patches equal extra leakage risks. Coverking is proud to deliver all-custom look and experience and will never treat these values for a couple yards of fabric to save.
Production Technology. High quality of Coverking Custom Car Covers starts with CAD/CAM systems performing precise design and cutting to ensure that the ready product has least seams possible for true custom look. All seams are sewn overlapped, with double needle and heavy, wax-coated thread to ensure durable, leak-resistant seams that will serve you the longest lifetime possible. Double seams ensure durability, in case if the main seam will fail. Indoor Custom Car Covers feature "blind seam" technology that is ideal for indoor, show-car conditions. Neoprene elastic tensioners are sewn in the front and rear of every Coverking Custom Car Cover. Optional security kit features protected grommets, sewn in the sides and covered to be invisible when cover is on the car.
199.99 229.99Brand: Coverking Part Numbers: The Coverking company was founded in 1986 in Southern California by an Industrial and Electrical Engineer, that previously worked in Aerospace Defense industry. Utilizing the latest CAD/CAM systems borrowed from Aerospace industry, the company managed to shorten the manufacturing process from nearly a month to nearly a single day. Since its launch, the company made a huge leap and has purchased several automotive companies later, some of which dated back to 1974. The company started with Dash Covers products and extended its products line with Custom Floor Mats, Custom Car Covers, Custom Seat Covers and Custom Sunshields. Growing production volumes did not change the company's main focus – creating high quality products that will serve their best to the customers and their vehicles.
