REPLY: No. Where things are going is where you said earlier. We are moving toward One-World Government, that can certainly never meet the needs of the many diverse nations, peoples, religions and races of mankind. It will be a government established only to uphold the needs and status quo of Multi-National Corporations and their minions. If there are elections at all, just to humor the masses and give them the impression that they actually have a voice, one will only be able to vote for THEIR candidates who they have in THEIR pocket. Actually it's pretty much that way already in this country. It just hasn't reached a global level yet. Let's face it. The real winner of this year's Presidential and Congressional elections will not be Obama or Romney; it will be Citibank, Exxon, Fannie Mae, General Motors, Aetna, The Trilateral Commission, The Bilderbergs, etc. etc.
And yes, you are quite right in saying: "It's going to happen that way because it has to happen that way, there is no other choice."
Yes, because everyone has been bought and paid for and elections are just an illusion. But you see, we are so complacent in this country and so dependent on entitlements that we dare not oppose the system for tear of losing our entitlements and we will vote for the candidate that ensures our entitlements rather than for the one who can do the most good for the country over all. Good people like Ralph Nader and Ron Paul will never have a chance because they are not "Part of the Plan."
And as you also said: We are moving toward "a reduction of certain kinds of personal liberties or more specifically privacy while at the same time we have an increase in transparency between government and the people." We may have an increase in transparency, but that's only because the criminals in DC have grown so arrogant that they no longer even try to hide their actions because they know that there isn't a thing that we the people can do about it. As we speak, the government is spending $770 million dollars on repairing the infrastructure and mosques in Egypt while cutting benefits to Americans and telling us to tighten our belts because these are hard times.

Many of our bags come with Cord Zipper Pulls (ID, Ego, Super Ego, Smart Alec, and others) on at least some of their zippers while other bags come exclusively with metal zipper pulls (Empire Builder, Aeronaut, and others). The main advantage a cord pull has over a metal pull is that the cord pull is significantly quieter than the metal pull: you won't get that "I'm being followed by a golden retriever" sound with cord pulls. This can be a significant difference with a bag like the Aeronaut, which has numerous zippers. The disadvantage of cord pulls is that if you want to lock two sliders together with a luggage lock, someone could easily cut the cords.
Now you have the option of buying extra Cord Zipper Pulls to use in addition to or instead of metal zipper pulls.
You'll receive parts for 8 Cord Zipper Pulls: 8 cords and 16 plastic zipper pull parts. (It takes two plastic zipper pull parts to make one complete zipper pull.)
Important: Make sure you've decided you never want metal zipper pulls again before you cut them off because, once you've cut the metal pulls off, you can't put them back on. And once you've cut off your metal zipper pulls, that part of your bag is no longer covered under our Lifetime Guarantee. For example: you can't cut off your metal zipper pulls, then send your bag back to us to have the zipper replaced because you want the metal zipper pulls back (the rest of the bag is still covered by our guarantee). Once the metal pulls have been removed from a bag, we cannot accept the bag back for exchange or refund. And while replacing the metal pulls with Cord Zipper Pulls isn't as dangerous as some of the things we do every day, please make sure to be careful and know that you are proceeding at your own risk.

Is there an optimum range of trees/ha in FMNR? What are the options if a farmer does not have enough living tree stumps in her/his field?
(6 answers)
Helpful Votes
I just watched the World Vision video narrated by Tony Rinaudo and I wonder how widely FMNR can be practiced. Are the natural/biological conditions nearly always in place for FMNR to succeed in average fields in the Sahel or are there some areas where more intensive interventions are necessary to ensure that FMNR succeeds?

Dear Tom,
if you keep the 'farmer managed' term to the fore, specifics of how many, which species and exactly how and when to prune become less important because at the end of the day, no matter what you decide is optimum, the farmer will choose a regime that suits his/her needs. This is my response to a similar question posed by somebody else:
However, those who promote FMNR should not become obsessed with specific methods. Perhaps one of the major reasons for widespread acceptance of FMNR is that it represents a departure point from hard science with replicate trial plots towards farmer innovation - with its infinite variations and bent towards what works and what is practical in the field. The emphasis is and always has been on the "Farmer Managed" part of FMNR. And it is precisely this freedom of choice that a farmer has to meet his/her own specific needs, using the free materials at hand (species mix), responding to the specific climate and soils and crop mix and understanding at the time of implementation. FMNR is not a ' fixed practice, but varies from region to region and even from farm to farm. I recently heard of farmers in Burkina Fasso who only leave and prune trees which are growing approximately in straight lines and they move self sown seedlings from where they are not wanted and plant them within in these lines. Within the rows the trees are grown as bushes which are slashed to ground level during the rainy season, except for single stems that are allowed to grow about every 12 meters. They choose to do this because they do not like interference with their ploughing and soil infertility is a major issue which they address by mulching with the pruned branchesv(personal communication, Roland Bunch).
In Maradi region today some farmers are still leaving from very few trees (10 - 20 / ha) to very many – (150 trees/ ha). Many of these farmers only leave a single stem to grow from a stump which they harvest when they have a need or at an optimum time for them, while others leave multiple stems, successively harvesting one each year. Others still allow a single stem to grow into a tree, and then only harvesting say 1/2 to 1/3rd of the branches per year (i.e. pollarding), but the tree always remains. They discovered pollarding provides larger wood harvests and re-growth is more rapid.
Even the species used in FMNR varies greatly within and between regions. In Maradi, the main species used in FMNR are Guiera senegelensis and Pilostigma, which predominantly provide firewood and building poles, while in Zinder region Faidherbia albida and Baobab are the dominant species used - neither of these are good for firewood! The mix of tree species I am seeing in Ethiopia, Uganda, Swaziland and Myanma are very different to the mix used for FMNR in Senegal, Mali, Niger and Chad.
The bulk of FMNR in Niger is generated from live tree stumps. However, in the Tahoua Region, where there were few tree stumps remaining, FMNR became possible only after farmers dug Zai pits and half moons. It appears that droppings placed in the zai and half moon structures contained tree seeds which germinated resulting in over 250,000 hectares becoming revegetated (Chris Reij, Personal communication). In Zinder region, there is a suggestion that the one million or more hectares of Faidherbia albida trees have partially at least been generated from the roots of mature trees.
In Niger, FMNR is practiced by individual farmers on their own land. However, as I promote FMNR in other countries, eg. Ethiopia and Uganda, there are ample opportunities to not only practice FMNR on farmland but also in degraded forests through community management.
Finally, farmers have many different objectives in mind when they practice FMNR, including - soil fertility, wind break, fire wood and building poles - for home consumption and sale, fruits, edible leaves, fodder, erosion control, reversal of land degradation, aesthetics, medicines, income generation, social acceptance. Ultimately it is the mix of objectives a farmer has in practicing FMNR that will determine the type of FMNR practiced.
What is interesting to me is that FMNR was largely born out of the failure of conventional technologies (raising usually exotic tree seedlings in a nursery and planting them out). What appears to be happening today in some areas is that as farmers begin to see trees as an economic asset in their own right and they see that the right species and arrangements enhance crop yields and increase resilience to adverse 'shocks' such as drought, insects and strong winds, they have also become interested in planting tree nursery stock! Hence, in Maradi more farmers are planting edible seeded Australian acacias, along with improved zyzyphus and other indigenous species which are locally extinct. In Burkina farmers have focussed on glyracidia etc.
Last year a research fellow documented the origin, spread and density of FMNR in Maradi. While it was a useful study, I would say that 75% of FMNR which occurs in that region was not counted because of the researchers choice of 'characterization parameters' of FMNR. This was sad to me because it also means that the full impact of FMNR was grossly underestimated.
There are guidelines for FMNR which I am currently updating (attached). Could I suggest to you though that in your write up you empasize the extreme flexibility of FMNR, the fact that farmers have considerable freedom of individual choice on how and when the practice FMNR, of which species they practice FMNR on and the end uses of FMNR.
As I run workshops in different countries it is very interesting to me that NGO and forestry personnel invariably ask for specifications – "what species, how many, when and how to prune..", whereas farmers ask questions like – "how can I possibly leave trees on my field since they will shade the food crops and reduce the yields?" When I explain to the farmers that they are the experts, and/or that they will know through experimentation which trees to leave and how to prune, and it is them who will make the choices, they relax, and the atmosphere in the workshop changes. I believe that it is at that point that they begin to embrace FMNR. This is very, very important. If a farmers objective is to increase food production, he does not want to be forced to do something that 'he knows' will reduce yields. Effectively, in the workshops I am giving them the assurance that ultimately, they are in charge, and they will decide on what to do - not the (often mistrusted) forestry officer and not the NGO extension agent (whose livelihood does not depend on the advice he gives).
In regard to the second question there is a remarkable story from the Tahoua region of Niger shared by Chris Reij in which some 250,000 ha of formerly lateritic hard pan country has been restored to productive use AND the trees have returned. The farmers dug zai holes and half moons. It appears that tree seeds brought in in the animal manure and perhaps by birds germinated in the holes. The transformation is very dramatic. I'll see if I can attach photos. (if it doesn't up load let me know and I can email Chris' photos to you.)

I wanted to add a few comments and a rejoinder to the posting by Tony, even though I haven't had a chance to return to the Sahel in some years to observe first hand the latest developments. It is certainly important to note that the success of FMNR is tied to the "farmer first" approach that encourages innovation and adaptation; local resource users and managers are the best placed to determine priority objectives for a given household and plot of land, and to manage the trade-offs in agrosylvopastoral production systems. And these objectives and management practices will certainly vary widely.
And as management intensifies, it is interesting to note the shift towards a mix of protecting and nuturing "natural" regeneration and more active planting of selected multipurpose tree and shrub species, whether by direct seeding or cuttings, or with planting stock from nurseries. The close integration of FMNR with other practicies aimed at soil and water conservation, soil fertility management and even mixed farming (crop and livestock production, diversification of farm products to include medicinal products, fodder, etc.) is also associated with intensification and increased investment in resource conservation that increases productivity.
While FMNR was born out of a failure of conventional and very costly project funded approaches to raising, transporting and planting out, tending and protecting tree seedlings...FMNR has also been spurred by other factors, such as the scarcity of fuelwood and tree products following increases in population density, reduction of woodlands and open access "bush" and ineffective or insufficient efforts by government forest depts to protect, conserve and sustain production of forest products from state forests. Villages and farmers needed wood and a variety of non timber forest products - and decided they could produce more "close to home" along with their food crops. They also took into account the fact that crop yields were being adversely affected by the elimination of trees and shrubs in farmfields and by the old methods of working hard to have "clean fields". While this worked in isolated, small fields surrounded by large expanses of bush, this practice was no longer well adapted to a landscape with fields cleared from horizon to horizon. And I feel that other important factors were related to the reduction of barriers or constraints to adoption of FMNR. For example, tree tenure became more secure; the forest dept rolled back some laws regulating cutting, pruning of "protected" species like baobab, gao (Faidherbia) and others; farmers gained new appreciation and insights about what was possible through cross visits and training programs (access to information); farmers were empowered through decentralization and rural development inititives and by a devolution of management rights to take more control over local management of natural resources; and practices by Forest Dept agents changed to become less inclined to levy fines or to require permits to transport wood, and more open to farmers producing, harvesting and selling wood and other products raised on farms.

FMNR has been used for the past 10 years by the Barahogon association in Mali, to restore tree cover on their agricultural lands. I have posted a link to the film BARAHOGON in which farmers from the village of Horé Guendé who are facing problems caused by deforestation, travel to the village Endé to visit the fields of the Barahogon members and see the results for themselves. You can watch the film at http://vimeo.com/4163389 It is in local languages with French subtitles A transcription in both English and French is available. In the case of teh Barahogon villages, the natural/biological conditions were in place. What was needed in addition to this for FMNR to succeed (after training in the simple techniques in the late 1990's) was strict enforcement of community level bylaws which restrict acces to wood from on-farm trees, to the farmer who cultivates the land plus a long campaign to stop people with timber permits purchased from the forestry service, from felling trees on the Barahogon villages' agricutural land.

Hi Mary, thanks for sharing this, and its a very exciting story. I'm interested to know how FMNR originated in this region. Was it a spontaneous indigenous movement or did someone bring the idea in from outside - and if so - from where?
warm regards.
Tony Rinaudo.

Hi Tony,
it was a bit of both. In 1999 the Barahogon association was given training in a) Mali's 1995 forest code and b) in "tree friendly" techniques for field clearance ie how not to clear fell. Everything after that (village bylaws, enforcement etc.) was at the initiative (and expense) of the Barahogon members in their 20 members villages. I revisited the area again in 2005, realised something interesting was going on and Sahel Eco began promoting FNMR more widely in 2006. There is a recent update on the extent of reforestation in Bankass at www.africa-regreening.blogspot.com

More than 100 osteopathic medical students receive symbolic garment
LECOM at Seton Hill's inaugural class received their white coats at a ceremony at the Seton Hill University Performing Arts Center in Greensburg, Pa.
For more pictures of the LECOM at Seton Hill White Coat ceremony, click here.
Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine at Seton Hill medical students marked their transition from classroom study to clinical education on Saturday, Feb. 13, 2010, as students received their white coats – symbols of trust between doctor and patient, of compassion, and of the purity of a medical professional's purpose.
In the Seton Hill University Performing Arts Center in Greensburg, more than 100 students in LECOM at Seton Hill's inaugural class pledged to uphold professionalism and competence in the presence of their families, professors and peers. Students receiving their white coats are members of the class of 2013.
The White Coat Ceremony initiates aspiring health care professionals into a commitment to the highest principles related to the practice of medicine and pharmacy. The White Coat Ceremony marks not only the entrance into medical and pharmacy school, but also matriculation into the health care professions with all of its traditions, accomplishments, rights and profound responsibilities to humankind. The students are now ready to embark on the highest quality in medical education as they start work with physicians and pharmacists in clinical courses and practices where they will learn more about how they can partner with their patients on a pathway to better health for their lifetimes.
|Courtney Bunevich, DO '06, MS '09, speaks to the students about the significance of the white coat.
Courtney Bunevich, DO, MS, delivered the keynote address.

RICHLANDS — Up 12-7 at halftime over Richlands after having one touchdown pass dropped and another touchdown reception called back because of holding, Northside coach Bob Eason was not exactly resting easy.
"I was a little concerned," Eason said.
He need not have been as the Monarchs used their formula for success once more in the second half to win going away.
The Monarchs turned in another stellar defensive performance, which included holding Richlands to 46 yards on offense through three quarters, combined with a running attack that saw Dwayne Johnson rush for 209 yards and Blair Adams added 107.
The result was Northside came away with a 40-13 victory Friday night to remain undefeated with two games left in the regular season.
"It feels good," middle linebacker DeJarvis Eaddy said.
It should. The Monarchs, ranked No. 2 in The Associated Press 2-A poll, are now 9-0 and 5-0 in the East Central 2-A Conference heading into back-to-back home games against Clinton (4-5, 2-3) this coming Friday night before a likely clash for the league title with East Duplin (8-1, 5-0) on Oct. 26.
And to think some of the Monarchs from a year ago questioned whether this year's team had the right stuff.
"It's amazing," Johnson said of the unbeaten mark. "The running backs and all the players from last year said we weren't going to make it anywhere. So I took it to heart and the whole team took it to heart. We told them we were going to make it."
For a half, however, the Wildcats (3-6, 2-3) looked like they might have a chance at an upset. But the Monarchs scored on first three possessions of the second half and continued to dominate defensively to put Richlands away.
"They deserve a lot of credit," Richlands coach Mike Natoli said. "They've got a great defense. That's obvious. Look how many points they've given up all year because they're fast and they're aggressive and they're well-coached."
Northside has allowed 60 points in nine games.
The Wildcats suffered a big blow when senior linebacker and H-back Ian McClusky, arguably the heart and soul of his team, injured his hand three minutes into the game. McClusky tried to come back but was unable to, ending the game with his arm in a sling.
"We got them off-balance with some of the things we planned on doing," Natoli said. "But Ian McClusky getting hurt really, really hurt us because he was a big part of our game plan offensively. So when he went out we had to really water down what we wanted to do. It's not an excuse. But we had to simplify some things."
Northside scored on its opening possession, driving 71 yards on seven plays to go up 6-0 on a 13-yard run by Adams. Trey Eason's extra point was blocked, and it took only seconds for Richlands to take the lead after that.
Ladarius Marshall took a handoff on a reverse on the ensuing kickoff and sped down the sidelines in front of the Northside bench for an 82-yard touchdown that gave the Wildcats a 7-6 lead with Trey Smith's PAT.
Northside appeared ready to regain the lead on its next possession, but a wide-open Josh Cabrera dropped a sure touchdown at the Richlands 30-yard line on third-and-7. Cabrera would, however, more than make up for the miscue later with a touchdown reception and a pair of interceptions, including one he returned 52 yards to set up his team's final score.
The Monarchs did take the lead on their next series when Adams scored on a 10-yard run to polish off a drive that included a 17-yard run by Adams and an 18-yard run by Johnson. That made it 12-7 after the 2-point conversion failed with 10:50 left in the first half.
It stayed that way until Northside's opening possession of the second half.
After a 34-yard run by Johnson on a pitch around the right side, quarterback Courtney Piatt scored on a 1-yard sneak to make it 19-7. The Monarchs made it 25-7 on their next series on Piatt's 15-yard pass to Cabrera just eight seconds into the fourth quarter.
At that point, Northside had outgained Richlands 260 to 46 yards.
Johnson upped the lead to 33-7 when he broke free on a draw for an 81-yard touchdown before the Monarchs finished off their scoring on a 2-yard pass from Piatt to Matt Lafferty with 3:20 left in the game after Cabrera's long interception return.
Richlands scored its only offensive touchdown of the night with 1:03 left against Northside's reserves when running back Daniel Negron passed to Cody Braxton for a 3-yard score.
But it was far too little far too late as Northside remained undefeated as the Monarchs continued to prove their former teammates wrong who questioned how good this year's team would be.
"That was the talk," Eaddy said. "They said, 'We were top of the game,' and that we were going to fall down like an empire. But it's my senior year, and we took it serious and our seniors took it serious. We keep rolling."

For first-year Mariner coach, age is just a number
Mature beyond his years, Mariner's first-year baseball coach, 23-year-old Josh White, is building program from the ground up

Mark Mulligan / The Herald
Marauders first-year head coach Joshua White talks to his players following a game against Everett last week.
He seems to have the maturity of a man twice his age and that will serve him well in his new job: head baseball coach at Mariner High School.
Nothing has ever really been average about White. He was a straight-A student at Lake Stevens High School while playing baseball. The studies paid off when he was able to attend Columbia University after he graduated.
At Columbia, White worked out with the baseball team as a non-roster catcher and grew to miss playing competitively so much that he transferred to Occidental College in Los Angeles. He played there for two seasons primarily as a catcher and designated hitter. After finishing up at Occidental with a Bachelor of Arts in Chemistry, White had his sights set on coaching and becoming a teacher.
"You talk to any serious athlete, either at the college or high-school level, and I guarantee you every one of them has thought about going back and being a coach," White said. "And then you ask yourself, 'Well, that's not going to pay for it by itself unless I'm a coach at the D-1 level, so what else can I do?' And teaching is the next closest thing."
White began looking for coaching jobs in the area. He got wind of the opening at Mariner and applied for the job. White was on the verge of becoming the JV baseball coach at Ballard High School when Mariner called and offered him the head coaching position.
A little help from a friend, mentor and former coach helped White nail down his first high school head coaching position. Lake Stevens head baseball coach Rodger Anderson wrote a letter of recommendation to the athletic director at Mariner in support of his former player.
"I told him (White), people are going to look at you and just say, 'You are too young to do it,'" Anderson said. "That's what I tried to get across when I wrote my letter that he is probably one of the most mature high school students that I ever taught and coached and that sometimes you have to look beyond (age)."
Choosing Mariner was a no-brainer for White.
"Being a competitor, I wanted to step into a role where I could take charge and build my own program," White said. "I didn't really care about what the record was or what the past history was. For me it was opportunity to build from the ground up."
White may not care about past records, but they are hard to overlook. Mariner finished 2-18 a season ago.
The excitement for the job was there, but with that came the understanding that turning things around is going to be tough. The Marauders don't have the turnout that some of the other Wesco schools have and about half of White's players have to juggle school, baseball and a part-time job.
In comparison, Anderson said that maybe 10 percent of his team has part-time jobs.
In order to bridge the gap between player and coach, White tried to get to know his team as quickly as possible. He started holding optional workouts for the players in the winter.
"My first step was, I sat down with about five (players) on last year's team and I let them tell me some of the things that happened last year," White said. "Some of the things that went well and more of the things that didn't go well just so that I was sensitive to that going in. Basically I said, 'Now that that's out in the open, I don't want to talk about the past anymore. Let's move on and let this be a new start.'"
As White expected, things have been a challenge so far.
"In general, it's been a rough start," White said. "We're 0-4 and the margins haven't been close. But there have been some good things."
Without a win so far, White was forced to look deeper for the positive signs. He found one in a 16-1 loss to Shorewood in the first game of the season.
The final score doesn't tell the whole story. Mariner scored first and after three innings trailed the Thunderbirds just 2-1 before the "wheels fell of the wagon" White said.
Several errors in the game's late innings turned what was a close game against a very good Shorewood team into a blowout.
"It's one of those things where you look in the box score and you see 16-1, but as a coach you are forced to find a way to take something positive from it, otherwise you are just going to crush the guys," White said. "That doesn't do them any good and it doesn't do me any good.
"It was a real confidence boost for our guys because Shorewood is a ranked team and they've got some really physical guys this year," he added. "So being able to go out and compete with them, even if the end result wasn't what we wanted, it was a real confidence boost. For me to have them try to take away something like that was a win for us. In the past I know a lot of these kids would have felt like they got reamed for a loss like that, but I'm trying to build on the positives."
Even though the teams that White played on at Lake Stevens were accustomed to having success, being just five years removed from playing high school baseball has helped him to see things from a player's perspective. He said looking back at some of those Lake Stevens teams, he can see now that some of them overachieved by fighting through adversity.
Now White's challenge is getting his team at Mariner to buy into those same types of challenges.
"It's going to be crucial for some of these guys to learn that it's not going to be handed to you on a platter," White said. "If you want to make stuff happen, you have to be proactive about it."
It's a pretty mature outlook for a 23-year-old to have, but Anderson isn't surprised.
"When he was in high school, he was always 17 going on 30," Anderson said.
It may not happen overnight, but Anderson said that he expects White to be successful in the long run if he sticks with it.
"I just hope he doesn't give up on it," he said. "He's so organized. He's going to do things the right way. I know he will do it the right way and hopefully Mariner will buy into that and his philosophy. For his first head coaching job, it's going to be a challenge, but I think he's up for it.
"All you have to do is just go out and prove yourself and you'll be fine. And I know he will. He's a pretty special young man."

Scouting Report-Tebow has been the undisputed leader of one of the best teams in College football the past 4 years, and one of the most productive players in the history of college football. In terms of a draft prospect, you have to look at the system Tebow has played in, which is very similar to the one Alex Smith, Niners QB played in, and wonder if he can make the transition. In terms of intangibles, Tebow is overflowing. He's got all the poise, confidence, and leadership you expect from a franchise quarterback. He's got a good arm, and is able to make most NFL caliber throws. He doesn't need to make much in the way of reads but shows good poise in the pocket, and obviously he can make plays with his legs. The biggest thing Tebow does wrong is he has really bad footwork. He doesn't set up for his throws, looks awkward when forced to drop back, and often doesn't step into throws. In short and intermediate throws, he doesn't throw a very catchable ball.
Draft Status-In a draft that looks to have 4 or 5 big time quarterbacks vying for the top spot, Tebow is going to have his work cut out for him. He's almost a lock to be a first round pick, on intangibles and his cache' alone. There are enough teams desperate for a spark to their franchise, that adding the fiery Tebow makes a lot of sense. His offseason will be huge, as he'll need to show NFL franchise he can play in a traditional offense.
Final Analysis-I'd love to sit here and bash Tebow and say he'll be a fullback in the NFL, but that's just not the case. He may never be an elite NFL signal caller, but there's no doubt he's a quarterback, and will be drafted as such. Just when you think he can't be a quarterback he makes some big plays in the passing game. But be warned, any team that drafts Tebow had better be prepared to either sit him, and give him several seasons to prepare, or take him for what he is, and use him as a situational player rather than an every down player.
Reminds me of: A beefed up, less polished version of Steve Young. I'm not sure if Tebow has the capacity to learn all he'll need to, to be a player like Young was, but his athleticism, and intangibles are very similar.

GARETH DUNCAN watched Waterkloof record a 21-19 victory over Monument in Pretoria.
Monnas have enjoyed more success in this annual interschool derby in recent years, but Klofies managed to hold on for a close win over their Krugersdorp-based rivals.
Waterkloof flyhalf Kobus Marias' three penalties in the second half were the match-winning scores as it saw the hosts break down a 19-12 deficit and surge to victory. It was an impressive comeback from the hosts, especially after Monument dominated from the outset.
Monnas boasted the bigger pack, and this saw them dominate the collisions in the first quarter. They capitalised on this ascendancy as wing Cisko du Toit and inside centre Rigard Viljoen crossed the chalk. Both tries came from Waterkloof errors in their own red zone.
However, Klofies managed to draw level before the break as wing Francois de Kock finished off an 80m counter-attack, while tighthead prop Johan van Wyk powered over from the close range. The score read 12-12 at half-time.
In the second half, Monnas scored early with flank Dylan Vlok sniping the fringes. But Waterkloof gained control of the game with a clever tactical kicking game thereafter, giving Marias the platform to punish the visitors' ill-discipline and to seal the triumph.

Although the basics of the i18n mechanism are the same for every part of the ecosystem, the packaging differs if you want to apply this mechanism to the Sonar core platform or to a plugin:
- Making the Sonar core platform available in a new language requires to develop and publish a new Language Pack plugin. By default Sonar embeds the English Pack. All other Language Pack plugins, like the French Pack plugin, are hosted in the plugins forge (https://svn.codehaus.org/sonar-plugins/trunk/l10n/), are maintained by the community and are available through Update Center (category "Localization").
- This is different for plugins, each plugin is in charge to embed its own translations. Of course supporting i18n mechanism is not mandatory for a plugin but in that case it will only be available in the default implemented language.
Translation bundles
There are 2 types of files for localized messages:
Properties files
- These are regular properties files with key/value pairs where you will put most translations
- These files must be stored in the package "org.sonar.l10n" (usually in the directory src/main/resources/org/sonar/l10n)
- The name of these files must respect the convention "<plugin key>_<language>.properties", for example "technicaldebt_fr.properties"
Messages accept arguments. Such entries would look like:
myplugin.foo=This is a message with 2 params: the first "{0}" and the second "{1}".
HTML files
- They are used for rule descriptions, which might be long and need HTML tags
- These files must be stored in the package "org.sonar.l10n.<plugin key>_<language>"
- Starting with Sonar 2.15, the files should be stored in the package "org.sonar.l10n.<plugin key>_<language>.rules.<repository key>" (backward compatibility is ensured for l10n plugins which use the former location)
- The name of these files must be the key of the rule they translate
- Example: the French description of the Squid Architectural Constraint rule is "src/main/resources/org/sonar/i18n/squidjava_fr/ArchitecturalConstraint.html"
- Or, starting with Sonar 2.15: "src/main/resources/org/sonar/i18n/squidjava_fr/rules/squid/ArchitecturalConstraint.html" (as "squidjava" is the plugin key and "squid" the repository key)
Naming conventions for keys
Here are the conventions you have to know about keys :
Metric name
Metric description
Name of notification channel

Rule name
Description of rule parameter
|Dashboard name, since 2.14.
dashboard.Hotstpots.name=Point Chauds
|Qualifier name, since 2.13.
Widget name

How to use localized messages ?
Ruby on Rails API
This API is used when implementing Ruby widgets or pages. It's really simple, a single method must be used :
Options are :
:defaultis the default value when the property key does not exist in bundles. If it's not set, then the key itself is returned.
:paramsis an array of string message arguments.
Examples :
Of course the Rails framework provides other formatting methods like :
GWT provides its own mechanisms to internationalize components. The static technique is the most efficient and must be used into Sonar GWT extensions. Read the Google documentation for more details.
Java API
The component
org.sonar.api.i18n.I18n is available for server extensions. Batch extensions are not supported yet and can not load bundles.
How to contribute
How to localize a plugin
A plugin can embed its own bundles, for example to translate the labels used in its web extensions. Bundles must be added to src/main/resources with the following convention names :
- Standard messages : org/sonar/l10n/<plugin key>_<language>.properties
- Rule descriptions :
- Up to Sonar 2.15: org/sonar/l10n/<plugin key>_<language>/*.html
- Since Sonar 2.15: org/sonar/l10n/<plugin key>_<language>/rules/<repository key>/*.html
The english bundle is mandatory. For example the plugin with key "technicaldebt" must define the following files in order to enable the french bundle :
- org/sonar/l10n/technicaldebt.properties
- org/sonar/l10n/technicaldebt_fr.properties
How to create a language pack
A language pack defines bundles for the whole Sonar distribution.
To create a new pack, it's recommended to copy the English bundles and to adapt them to the new language.
The language pack plugin must be executed in the same classloader than the English pack, so the property "basePlugin" must be set to "l10nen" into the configuration of sonar-packaging-maven-plugin (see example).

Articles Tagged 'Environmental Bond Act'
Strawberry Fields For-Never
Philip Tavella had big plans for Cedar Creek Park.
The financial consultant-turned-developer from Massapequa envisioned new athletic fields, a miniature golf course, driving range, an indoor recreational "sportsplex" center and go-cart tracks, among other new facilities at the 259-acre county park that borders Wantagh and Seaford.
For the past four years, Tavella says, he's been the director of the nonprofit Darryl Strawberry Foundation. The project at Cedar Creek would feature continuous programs for children like his son, who has special needs.
The total price tag for his dream: $26 million, he tells the Press, all to be financed by himself and four private companies, whom he declines to name. The cost to taxpayers, he says: zero. And it wouldn't affect operations at the park for regular users one bit, he says.
"We don't take away 1 percent of any public usage on that park," says Tavella. "We would be increasing public usage of the park."
But not everyone shares Tavella's vision.
Although already shelved by the Suozzi administration due to lack of public input, Tavella's plans have ignited a firestorm of controversy among environmentalists, residents, civic leaders and lawmakers from the area not quick to be extinguished, with its recent culmination a public meeting held at Wantagh High School on Oct. 21 in which participants called for a permanent moratorium on development projects within the park.

Questions & Answers

Wrap a tape measure horizontally around your forehead. Select the helmet that is the closest fit to that size. A helmet should fit snug on your head. If it moves while wearing, it is too large. If it is painful to wear, it is too small.
The EXO R-410 may be Scorpion's most affordable full face helmet but
definitely not for lack of quality or features. This helmet is Snell rated, has
a lightweight polycarbonate shell, a KwikWick II liner, and an Ellip-tec
toolless shield system. To see the EXO R-410 in greater detail, click the link
below to go to our website.
Skulls are everywhere in motorcycling these days and you would think that this
motif would be as played out as barbed wire or tribal by now. But, it isn't.
Graphic designers are keeping this style alive by incorporating the iconic
figure in new ways.
Scorpion has really done a nice job improving their matte finishes and it
really pays off with the Underworld graphic.The Underworld comes in three color
ways; Blood, Smoke, and my favorite, this Chameleon. Scorpion has been using
this color changing Chameleon technique for a while now but this is the first
time it has been made available in a flat finish and it looks awesome.all three
of the colorways have a backround of skulls with pin striped linework in the
foreground. Scorpion
is emblazened on the chinbar in a iron cross looking block font.
Again, the EXO R-410 Underworld graphic is big leap forward in helmet art.

A smattering of Japanese is always very useful in Düsseldorf, capital of North Rhine-Westphalia and home to Germany's largest Japanese community, but especially on Japan Day, the annual event when the city's Japanese – around 7,000 people – join a few hundred thousand other Düsseldorfers and international visitors for an enthralling celebration.
Describing Düsseldorf as little Tokyo may be a slight exaggeration. However, there are few other European cities where the Japanese influence on art, culture, food and drink, festivals, leisure and sport is as strong as here. This traditional friendship has been celebrated for decades with a delightful spring festival, mostly in early June, known as Japan Day or 'Jap Day' for short. On these occasions everything is Japanese – not only the shows, entertainment, art and cuisine but also a wonderful spectrum of music ranging from classical to traditional Japanese, along with exhibitions featuring arts such as calligraphy or ikebana, and the samurai, who bring Japanese martial arts to life in historical armour. Film buffs can enjoy contemporary films from Japan, and manga fans are in their element. Not forgetting the breathtaking fireworks that illuminate the sky above the banks of the Rhine around 11pm, beautifully composed and choreographed by Japanese pyrotechnic experts. The finale is always poignant – and the perfect moment to say a quiet sayonara. See you next year at Japan Day in Düsseldorf!

On Saturday (Sept. 14), the Cal water polo will be enjoying its annual Alumni Match at Noon at Spieker Aquatics Complex, celebrating the 40th anniversary of the program's first NCAA title.
Led by four goals by freshman Chandler Jarrels-Stickney, No. 4 ranked Cal finished 4-0 at the Triton Invitational with a 15-4 victory over No. 17 UC Davis Sunday.
No. 4 ranked Cal (3-0) continued its strong offense at the Triton Invitational, defeating No. 13 Loyola Marymount, 17-7, Sunday (Sept. 8) morning in the Golden Bears' third game of the tournament.

Recently, a girl in my hometown died in a car crash while being dropped off at a friend's house. She was 16, an allstar athlete, and straight-A student. I'm so sick of people trying to justify horrible events by saying it's "God's plan". It makes me throw up.
Views: 373
I have myself been very, very angry about "God's plan" comments.
Nevertheless, was anything really served here except to move a heated and ongoing debate on theism to the center of what was meant to be a sincere expression of condolences?
I haven't found these approaches to be very good for me ... except as a reminder to my circles that I am an atheist and find such a god-model to be loathsome.
Tammi; if someone said something that ignorant and offensive and wasn't backing it with a religious belief, I highly doubt you would be singing the same tune. If you think that was bad, you wouldn't even want to see what I would say to them if the victim was closer to me.
It's just god's plan for you to feel this way and to express yourself like this.
I have had some hideous things go on in my life and several theists have seemingly intimated that these things will keep going on until I convert. More reasonable ones have said that bad things will happen, but if I believe in the Lord, I won't be alone with it.
Either way, it pisses me off. I cannot have the faith they say I need to have in order to be shown that their deity exists, and there are times when I could use some kind of faith in something. I just believe that there is no supreme being overseeing my life and willing or able to make things happen or not.
And I really dislike the part about, "God never gives you more than you can handle." If there is some deity out there giving me the constant and unrelenting trials in my life, it can go get bent.
Clearly the people that god allowed to starve to death, or drove to suicide, got more than they can handle from him. Ergo it's either a lie or doG does not exist.
Why are we here? Who did we get here?, Physicist say that we were created out of nothing from the big bang. Forget about all the details in between. We came out of nothing, miraculous!.
Is that such a big leap from a God coming out of nothing from Eternity, once again ignoring the details
@Michael - Why is god here. Where did he come from? Why did he create the universe? Why did he create humans? Why does he want us to love him and pray to him, and why does he want to punish us for stuff? Why does he not provide any proof of his existence?
Many theists say that god always existed, didn't need to be created, that there was nothing before god. Why is it so easy to believe in an always existing without being created god but not in a similar universe?
You see how we could keep going around in circles with this argument?
Using the uncertainty surrounding the beginning of the universe to support the claim that there is a god isn't a really smart thing to do, so full of holes.
Modern Physics has been around for a tiny tiny, minuscule fraction of the time the universe has been around for. 13,700,000,000 years versus what, a few hundred years? Will take some time to catch up with all that has happened during that period. Just because they don't have the answers today doesn't mean they won't ever have the answers.
Saying that because you don't have the answers, god, isn't a very convincing argument.
I bet some beings closer to the edge of this universe, or in an alternate universe, have the answers... MAYBE THE HISTORY CHANNEL #2 IS RIGHT AND WE'RE ALL JUST AN ALIEN EXPERIMENT. I sure as shit think that's more plausible than a bearded white dude in the sky D:
... not much more plausible... but definitely more.
Well Nathan that depends. Maybe the alien thing has one chance in a quadrillion (a one with 15 zeros behind it, leastwise if you follow US nomenclature for big numbers) of being true. The man in the sky has zero chance. One in a quadrillion is not much greater than zero, so yo can say it's "not much more plausible". On the other hand if you divide 0.000 000 000 000 001 by zero (and watch your calculator bitch that you can't divide by zero) you will see that it's infinity times more plausible. So use whichever way of assessing the increase will be most impressive. :-)
