Riddle of the sands - cyclists want cycle path redesigned so they can cycle on it
Windblown grains leave £7 million cycle path in North Wales unusable, say Sustrans and CTC
Sustainable transport charity Sustrans and national cyclists' organisation CTC have joined bike riders in calling for changes to be made to a £7 million cycle route that is being rendered impassable in parts due to fine sand being blown across it.
According to a report on the website Wales Online, Conwy Council has increased the frequency with which sand is cleared from a section of the route at West Shore in Llandudno from once a quarter to once a month at an annual cost of £6,000.
However, that still isn't often enough to resolve the problem, and Sustrans Cymru wants alterations made to prevent sand ending up on the cycle path in the first place, which it says is deterring cyclists from using the route, which runs between Llandudno and Conwy.
As well as the risk of slipping on a sandy surface and the unpleasentness of sand whipped up by the wind stinging you when it comes into contact with the skin, there's also the issue of fine grains causing untold damage if once they come into contact with a bike's moving parts.
Once they get mixed up with chain lube, a full strip down is needed to get rid of them, and if they get into your brake pads, it's a quick way to ruin a set of rims.
Sustrans area manager Glyn Evans told the website: "We know cyclists stay away from the route because of the sand, which is a shame because the Welsh Assembly Government (WAG) ploughed a lot of money into it. It's just a dog walkers' route. It's a wonderful route but it's unusable at the moment."
Conwy council has attempted to use fences to keep the sand at bay, an initiative welcomed by Mr Evans, but he added: "That hasn't worked. There's even more sand accumulated around the fences. The time has come to look at the route again to see what longer-term measures can be implemented."
There are also fears that a second route planned on the other side of the Conwy estuary, which would take cyclists and walkers away from the busy A55 Expressway which has a speed limit of 70mph, may also fall victim to the same problem since it, too, is located close to sand dunes.
Wales Online reports that council officers were instructed seven months ago to hold talks with the WAG regarding "on-going maintenance costs associated with clearing blown sand," but there has still been no agreement reached for the council to build the path at Morfa Conwy.
Roy Spilsbury, of CTC Cymru, was quoted as saying that the costs of maintaining the path would be minimal. "This isn't the time to be tight-fisted," he insisted. "The council should consider the benefits to local traders and people, and the holiday industry.
"The most unlikely individuals are on there, travelling some distance.
"It's not unusual to hear people say: 'It's 40 years since I've been on a bike and I feel I've missed out for 40 years.' Sometimes you see toddlers, parents and grandparents out together on their bikes. They're thrilled."
He added: "The biggest drawback is people in wheelchairs have difficulties with the sand. Their needs should be taken on board as well."
Mr Spilsbury's proposed solution was that netting be put in place over the sand, or that vegetation be planted to help prevent the dunes from being eroded.
In May this year, council officials said that they expected to receive funding to build the Morfa Conwy bike path, but warned that "It is likely that the authority will come under pressure to remove wind-blown sand as soon as it accumulates.
"Because of the unpredictable nature of sand accumulation, it is not possible to produce definitive costs for its removal at this stage."
In 2009/10, around £4,500 was spent removing sand on the West Shore route, but the council says: "This is likely to rise to some £6,000 in 2011/12 because of the need to increase the sweeping frequency to monthly."
I didn't know there was so much sand in Wales. That pic reminds me of when I was in the Sahara earlier this year.

I rode about 100km on cycle route LF1 through the dunes in the Netherlands in August. There were plenty of places where the path was covered in sand. There were a couple of places where the path was just soft sand.
Much of northern Holland is reclaimed sand dunes. It's a wonder that they can cycle there at all with the ever present dangers of sand!!

Pic used for effect and is not actually Wales, surprisingly enough.
In fact, it's the Great Sand Dunes National Park in Colorado, to give it its "does what it says on the tin" official name.

we do have one dune that is pretty big in Wales
Merthyr Mawr, Near Bridgend CF32
The dunes claim fame to the highest single sand dune in Europe, known locally as the 'big dipper'. Scenes from the famous film Lawrence of Arabia were filmed at the dunes
for me - The ride is about adventure, camaraderie and the sense of accomplishment that comes after a long day in the saddle.

Not a dune as such - but Pendine Sands was used for various land speed record attempts over the years. Wonder if sand in the chain played a role in the fate of Parry Thomas?

Hello Peeps,
I was looking through Indiegogo, and saw this fab little thing called FaceRig. Has anyone else seen it?
I think that it would be great when used with iPi Soft's motion capture.
Read a book for a change.
Could see serious potential for capturing your own expression from a still image and translating it into expression morphs in Daz… Would be a whole lot more intuitive than trudging through all the manual dials if you've got a mass of things to get through.
Does anyone with the right technical knowledge think that would be possible?
looks similar in function to a Mixamo Unity app I did a 15 day demo of.
unfortunately you need Mixamo all access for that one which is rather dear and yearly.
reading this it will be locked to apps, only an expensive (surprise) MAX/Maya version there are a few of those already!
WARNING do not click what video horrors will be seen if you do cannot be unseen.
my render thread
never forget
A Drows Walk
Jaderail is at it again
It's like a cheaper version of faceshift. That's extortionate though, and only works with a Kinect.. I tried the demo, and it was really easy to use though. It'll even morph the dummy head to the shape of yours, so if it worked with Daz Studio/Poser, you could make a character look and sound like you.
Saw this thing on youtube today, doing a crowdfunding thing. When they said you can make your own I thought that some people here would like to see it too. Definitely interested in it's potential application :o
Merged a second thread on this.
DAZ Studio Frequently Asked Questions
Index of free DAZ Studio scripts and plugins list
Hot damn didn't even think to look if someone had beaten me to the punch. Apologies all around.
They seem to be catering for a lot of the hobby market, so it looks like you'll be able to use it in Daz Studio, Poser, and Carrara with some, or no tweaking.
Ahh ... If it was released for Daz / Poser ... As it is still not possible, a vote goes for: Pro Brekel face ...
Recalling that brekel pro face has an update (Pro Face Brekel Kinect Setup v1.63)
Casemod AKASA Eclipse 62 / intel i7 2600 / Asrock Z77 Pro3 / GTX titan[sold] / Ram: 4x 8GB, Corsair XMS3 DDR3 = (32Gb) / 120GB Sandisk SSD / HDD 7200rpm 1T / CPU Cooler: Zalman CNPS9900 LED blue / Power suply Corsair CX 750w (80 plus bronze)
well I bought it from Steam and guess what you need the pro version for commercial use and there are strict limitations on use
I really would not bother
I would have expected that you had to have the Pro version if you wanted to use it for commercial purposes.
I finally got the latest beta to work
I want a Pro product not a beta if I have to pay more for commercial purposes
Is it any possibility to use own 3d models in Face Rig, or is it only limited to ready made avatars, that come with the program?
I think you need a studio version coming later really though there is a PDF of requirements needed for importing models as collada and tga files listing biped bones needed maximum number of triangles, no blendshapes only bone rigging etc, has images and hierarchies needed and folder file naming conventions
it needs a script to prepare it I have yet to find, there is some info on the forum I saw for importing props through command prompt
was given this link on their forum
and on the video
Thanks, Wendy, for checking it up. Also found "How To Make A Basic Prop Using Blender 3D"
Does one need to buy Studio version (whenever it will be available) or will the Pro version
allow to use FaceRig commercially?

STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS - Grading & Discussion [SPOILERS]
View Single Post

Re: STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS - Grading & Discussion [SPOILERS]
It was fun, an enjoyable couple of hours, and when it was doing its own thing, it was fairly good at it. The characters were well-realised and often funny, I loved Spock in almost every scene. The film showed great promise when, at the start, Kirk is being chewed out for being a reckless dick, basically vindicating all the criticisms of his actions in the first film. A great start, then. It also felt a lot more StarTrekky, with references and sequences straight out of the TV series(eses). Cumberbatch is also a real pleasure to watch throughout.
Basically, if you liked the first one, you'll like this. Better in some ways, worse in others.
My problem with it is, at the end of the last one, it was left open for "bold new adventures", so I expected NEW adventures. I didn't expect:
a remake of Wrath of Khan. Whole snippets of dialogue and even scenes lifted from previous films. The little references were fine (I geeked out when I saw the line-up of ships and the Section 31 reference) but this film is so devoid of any originality, and so teasing and secretive about it (re: trailers, etc.), that it borders on parody. *That* scene, and the point where Spock yells "Khan!", I figuratively palmed my face into orbit.
Is THIS what a Star Trek film has become now? If so, stop the Enterprise, I want to get off.
I hear people saying that the ending leaves it open (again) for new adventures, but does it? Surely the
film left it open for new adventures, and look what they did with it? Going by past form of aping the popular, I half expect the next one to feature either whales or the Borg.
Into Darkness
has completely lost my confidence in Abrams and co making an exciting, new and original film.
I can still barely believe that Khan is even in this. I refused to believe they would stoop to that level right up until just before I saw it (I had it spoiled for me a few days early
) but obviously I misjudged the ineptitude of the writers, or perhaps misjudged the influence of money.
What do I want from the next one, then? Cut the budget, cut the scope. Get some different bloody writers, and get the Enterprise OUT THERE, doing NEW things, with NEW characters!
There was more than a hint of Lindelof's Plot Logic in this one. A sense of "wouldn't it be cool if this happened" rather than things making sense. The first film got away with cosmic coincidences in my opinion, because it seemed appropriate. Some of the logic in this one was screwy, though. Character motivations were fuzzy, particularly Cumberbatch and Robocop, with who wanted what and why. It felt like rewrites had been done at the last minutes, without tidying up the loose ends. Perhaps they had, I'm sure it's pretty common.
In short, then, I had a fun time watching it and it definitely has its moments of excellence. The characters have settled in, the humour was well-judged, the dialogue snappy and witty. But the unoriginality running through it means it will not be remembered as anything other than a throwaway piece of tribble fluff. Disappointing.

Grant Avenue resident Andrew D. Johnson admitted Friday he killed his next-door neighbor.
As family of the victim looked on, Johnson, 60, pleaded guilty in Erie County Common Pleas Court to involuntary manslaughter, a first-degree felony.
In July 2007, Gerald Gilliam, 39, was shot and left dying in his backyard. When police arrived at the scene they found Johnson with a .38-caliber revolver in his hand. Gilliam was taken to the hospital, where he died a few hours later.
Gilliam's widow, Sandy, 43, and his son quietly observed the proceedings.
Attorney Gerald Smith, who represents Johnson, said all requests for evidence in the case had been processed.
"It's obviously a tragedy, this whole situation," he said.
Wearing a blue collared shirt and black slacks, Johnson said little during proceedings, save for answering presiding Judge Tygh Tone's questions regarding the plea.
"He's aware of the possible penalties involved," Smith said. "We've had many, many discussions about this."
Johnson faces up to 10 years in prison but none of that time is mandatory, said Erie County Prosecutor Kevin Baxter.
Johnson declined comment after the hearing, as did some of Gilliam's family. No one answered the door Friday afternoon at Sandy Gilliam's Grant Avenue home, where a "For Sale" sign is posted outside.
"It's was a little unsettling moving in here after it happened," said neighbor Wendy Wirsche, who has lived across the street from Johnson's home for about eight months.
Twin brothers Calvonte and Michael Harper, 8, said they used to play basketball with "Jerry" Gilliam and that Johnson would visit.
"We always see her when she comes past our house," Calvonte Harper said of neighbor Sandy Gilliam.
Another neighbor said Johnson "did the right thing" in pleading guilty, but said the shooting has affected the whole neighborhood. Residents are not inclined to talk about the incident as they are still hurting, he said.
Johnson was originally charged with murder and voluntary manslaughter. As part of the plea agreement those charges were dropped, as was a gun specification. Johnson will be sentenced May 23 and faces up to $20,000 in fines.
Johnson's bond was continued, and he remains on house arrest.
Last month a lawsuit was filed against Johnson by Sandy Gilliam alleging he caused "severe and debilitating emotional distress" to her as a result of the shooting, according to the lawsuit.
She says Johnson should be liable for at least $25,000, court records state. Her attorney, Ed Rhode, did not return a call for comment on the case.
An agreed judgment entry was sent to Tone at the end of February, according to court records. So far there has been no ruling on it.
A tragic day: July 7, 2007
Alcohol, marijuana and racial slurs all played a role in the events leading up to the slaying, police said.
The initial 911 call came in at about 9 p.m. A witness pointed toward Andrew Johnson's home to identify the shooting suspect, saying, "He's in there."
Johnson told police Gerald Gilliam jumped over onto his property and hit him "upside the head." Johnson said he was hit by Gilliam a couple of times. Johnson said he got the gun after Gilliam started cussing him out. Johnson told police he "did not want to try to kill him, but he was just shooting downward."
Johnson fired once, hitting the ground. A second shot hit Gilliam in the midsection. Johnson told police he was shooting the gun to "scare" Gilliam.
When police arrived Johnson exited his home and extended his hands palms upward, revealing a .38-caliber chrome revolver in one. Police ordered Johnson to drop the gun. He complied and was arrested.
Gilliam was taken to the hospital and died a few hours later. Police found numerous bottles and cans of beer and alcohol in the area behind Johnson's house.
Sandy Gilliam told police Johnson and her husband were "best of friends" and the two would drink together often and go to each other's houses for cookouts.

While previous research has shown that withdrawing immunosuppression is possible in children, the current study showed the highest benefit ever achieved, Dr. Lobritto says. He adds that the study deliberately selected patients expected to have a good response, so that the investigators could determine how best to predict benefit. "This was a rigorous trial with a great deal of monitoring," he says.
All of the patients had received liver tissue donated by a parent. They were a median age of 6.9 months at transplant and about 8.5 years when they participated in the study. Most of them (16 out of 20) were transplanted because they were born with an injured bile duct that quickly led to liver failure.
"The liver is the most forgiving of organs because it has the ability to recover from injury and regenerate," says Dr. Lobritto.
Immunosuppressant drugs were tapered off over a period of 36 weeks or more, and the patients were closely monitored. During withdrawal and for three months afterward, all patients received liver function tests every two weeks and visited their physicians every three months. They then had monthly liver tests and biannual clinic visits for two years, followed by liver tests every two months and annual clinic visits. Four liver biopsies were taken.
The close monitoring resulted in the discovery of three clinical factors that predicted which patients could withdraw from their medications without repercussions: a longer time between transplant and withdrawal, absence of liver inflammation, and the absence of C4D activity in the liver.
In the next study, physicians expec

Bill Smith (jazz musician)
William Overton Smith (born September 22, 1926), known as Bill Smith, is a U.S. clarinetist and composer. He has worked extensively in modern classical music, Third Stream and jazz, and is perhaps best known for having played with pianist Dave Brubeck intermittently from the 1940s to the early 2000s.
Bill Smith—also known as a "classical" composer under his full name, William O. [Overton] Smith—was born in Sacramento and grew up in Oakland, California, where he began playing clarinet when he was ten. He put together a jazz group to play for dances at 13, and at the age of 15 he joined the Oakland Symphony. He idolized Benny Goodman, but after high school, a brief cross-country tour with a dance band ended his romance for the life of a traveling jazz musician. He gave two weeks' notice when the band reached Washington, D.C., and, encouraged by an older band member to "get the best education you can get," headed to New York.
He began his formal music studies at the Juilliard School of Music, playing in New York jazz clubs like Kelly's Stables at night. Uninspired by the Juilliard faculty, he returned to California upon hearing and admiring the music of Darius Milhaud, who was then teaching at Mills College in Oakland. At Mills, he met pianist Dave Brubeck, with whom he has often played since, in both the famous Dave Brubeck Octet and the Dave Brubeck Quartet (occasionally subbing for saxophonist Paul Desmond in the latter during the 1950s and rejoining in the 1990s. In 1947, he composed Schizophrenic Scherzo for the Brubeck Octet, one of the earliest works that successfully integrated jazz and classical techniques, a style that later was given the name "third stream" by Gunther Schuller (Mitchell 2001). He studied composition with Roger Sessions at the University of California, Berkeley, where he was graduated with a bachelor's and a master's degree.
Winning the Prix de Paris presented Smith the opportunity for two years of study at the Paris Conservatory, and in 1957, he was awarded the prestigious Prix de Rome and spent six years in that city. He has since received numerous other awards, including two Guggenheim grants (Monaghan 1996).
After a teaching stint at the University of Southern California, Smith began a thirty-year career at the University of Washington School of Music in Seattle, where he taught music composition and performance, co-leading the forward-thinking Contemporary Group first with Robert Suderburg, and then with trombonist Stuart Dempster, from 1966 to 1997 (Mitchell 2001). Both Smith and Dempster are currently professors emeritus.
Smith has investigated and cataloged a wide range of extended techniques on the clarinet, including the use of two clarinets simultaneously by a single performer, inspired by images of the ancient aulos encountered during a trip to Greece (Monaghan 1996), numerous multiphonics, playing the instrument with a cork in the bell, and the "clar-flute," a technique that involves removing the instrument's mouthpiece and playing it as an end-blown flute. As William O. Smith, he has written several pioneering pieces that feature many of these techniques, including Duo for Flute and Clarinet (1961) and Variants for Solo Clarinet (1963) (Smith [n.d.]), and he compiled the first comprehensive catalogue of fingerings for clarinet multiphonics (Rehfeldt 1994, 99–121). Smith was among the early composers interested in electronic music, and as a performer he continues to experiment with amplified clarinet and electronic delays. He remains active nationally, internationally, and on the local Seattle music scene as well, where in 2008, he composed, recorded, and premiered a "jazzopera" titled Space in the Heart (Anon. 2008).

Eric Salzman wrote (New York Herald Tribune, March 14, 1964):
William Smith's clarinet pieces, played by himself, must be heard to believe—double, even triple stops; pure whistling harmonics; tremolo growls and burbles; ghosts of tones, shrill screams of sounds, weird echoes, whispers and clarinet twitches; the thinnest of thin, pure lines; then veritable avalanches of bubbling, burbling sound. Completely impossible except that it happened.(New York Herald Tribune, Eric Salzman, March 14, 1964, quoted in Rehfeldt 1994, quoted on William O.

Miocene tectonics and climate forcing of biodiversity, western United States
Matthew Kohn and Theodore Fremd, Department of Geosciences, Boise State University, 1910 University Dr., Boise, Idaho 83725, USA. Pages 783-786. NSF funding received.
Kohn and Fremd have found that the diversity patterns of carnivores and hoofed mammals in the western United States over the past 30 million years show changes related to crustal extension, global cooling, and increased climate seasonality. Increased diversities at 17 to 17.5 million years ago reflect increased topographic variability that resulted from extension. Decreased diversities circa 11 million years ago and the rapid increase in warm climate (C4) grasses at 7-8 million years ago reflect climate teleconn

Originally written on Fangraphs | Last updated 3/7/13
Nolan Arenado's development has been a roller coaster ride. From prospect with major helium, to disappointment with maturity issues, the third baseman lost his luster this off-season. With four home runs in his first 17 at bats this spring, Arenado is all the rage again as he attempts to wrangle the third base job away from the combo of Chris Nelson and Jordan Pacheco. Of course arbitration clocks, service time and other internal decisions will be a part of the decision making process, but what about the production? Will 150 game of Nolan Arenado have more on field value than Nelson/Pacheco? I'm not so sure. Below are select quotes from 2010 after scouting him as a member of the Asheville Tourists in the midst of a breakthrough season which saw him post a .308/.338/.520 triple slash line, 37 percent better than the league average. He consistently drove the baseball hard into the gaps throughout the series leading to multiple extra base hits and a couple of fly balls which reached the warning track. As he adds pull side power, his home run totals should really take off. Never cheated, his approach was to hammer the first fastball over the plate and he was successful more often than not. Arenado has quite a bit of work to do to project as an average third baseman, but he has time, and makeup on his side. In 2011, Arenado posted an impressive slash line of .298/.349/.487 in the California League, including 20 home runs and a minor-league leading 122 runs batted in. In an extreme hitters environment, Arenado's totals were only eight percent better than league average. A .388/.423/.636 showing in the Arizona Fall League left many believing Arenado would jump from High-A to Colorado as the organization dealt Ian Stewart and signed aging veteran Casey Blake to keep the position warm. Arenado was assigned to Double-A to begin the 2012 season and sandwiched a strong April and August/September with three sub par months (May through July). His .285/.337/.428 triple slash line was met with a shrug, but a 110 wRC+means Arenado was better when compared to the league than in 2011. Beyond offense, Arenado has also improved his physique and defensive ability to the point where he projects to stick long term. While Arenado was in Double-A, the Casey Blake experiment flopped and the Rockies turned to Pacheco and Nelson at third base. In turn, the position produced at an above average rate, resulting in a .302/.344/.427 slash line. The numbers were fueled by a .351 BABIP. Plus, both the areas of power (42 doubles, 8 home runs) and walks (36) were lacking, leaving regression a real possibility. On defense, Rockies third basemen combined to be 30 runs below average, negating much of whatever value the position held. This isn't to say the 21-year old won't become a better option than whatever the Rockies piecemeal together in 2013. He will. I'm just not sure Arenado is better now. And if he's not clearly the superior option, then why rush arbitration clocks, service time and the opportunity to develop further in Triple-A? Colorado Rockies third basemen displayed strong hitting skills, doubles power, low walk totals and questionable defense in 2012. Sound familiar? It should. Nolan Arenado is the same type of player.

Hundreds of hungry and homeless people show up at First Baptist Church of Forest Park twice a month to receive a hot meal, as well a food for the soul, according to church organizers.
For the past two and a half years, the church has opened its doors to the community, every other Wednesday, for a church service, followed by a meal, according to Ron Dodson, an organizer and volunteer, who has been a member of the church more than 30 years.
Dodson, who was recently re-elected to the Georgia House of Representatives' State House District 75 seat, after spending some time out of office, said it is a blessing to participate in the ministry.
"The volunteers, they get as much of a blessing out of it as the people that are in need," said Dodson (D-Lake City).
On the second and fourth Wednesday of each month, January through October, the church holds an 11 a.m., worship service in its fellowship hall, followed by a meal that usually begins around noon, according to church pastor, Reed Crumbliss.
In November and December, however, the service and meal take place on the first and third Wednesday. "In our view, that's [the worship service] the primary thing," said Crumbliss.
Two-hundred, ninety-seven adults and approximately 50 children were served meals following the service on Nov. 18, by approximately 80 volunteers, according to Dodson.
The Thanksgiving meal included turkey, dressing, sweet potatoes, green beans, cranberry sauce, rolls, and a variety of cakes and pies for dessert.
Following the meal, those in need also received a bag of groceries to take home, according to Dodson.
He said more than 200 people show up to receive a hot meal and bag of groceries biweekly, at the church, located at 634 Main Street in Forest Park.
"We can see an increase to some degree every week, and the need seems to be more, now, than when the economy was better," said Dodson.
"Anyone that has a need that comes through the door is welcome," he said. "Some are homeless, some are not. Some are just on hard times. Most of them do not have jobs."
The ministry receives food from a local community food bank, and also gets help with preparing and serving the meals from members of other churches, according to Dodson. He said, sometimes, the meal is provided by Chik-fil-A or other local restaurants.
"The volunteers, they're real nice. They make you feel real welcome," said Maxine Okafor, 48, of Forest Park. "I really like the fellowship, because I'm not working," she said.
"I've been coming out here, off and on, for four or five years," said Keith Anderson, 50, of Forest Park. "I work at night ... security for a gated subdivision in Riverdale," he said.
Anderson said he also works a second, part-time job, cleaning at a local store. He said the ministry helps him make ends meet, and provides an opportunity to worship. "I don't really go to church. You get to hear the word, and I usually get something to eat while I'm here," he said.
For more information about the ministry, or to donate, or volunteer, contact the church at (404) 366-6333.

Making Delta an investors' destination
Delta State is an investment destination that is increasingly gaining attention from those looking for agric business opportunities.
Rich in resources, specifically, fisheries and agriculture, the economy has been performing strongly mainly due to the high demand for commodities.
'Agriculture and allied' industry is divided into several segments, namely: horticulture and its allied sectors (including fruits and vegetables, flowers, plantation crops, and medicinal plants); fisheries sector; animal husbandry and livestock; and sericulture. The state varied agro-climatic conditions are highly favourable for the growth of many crops.
The force behind commercial agriculture in the state has been crops such as palm oil, rice, cassava , lime, sweet orange, banana, grape, sapota, peppers, tomato, peas etc. These are framed by both plantations and small crop-farmers. The state blessed with rich soil, reliable rainfall and warm climate is ideal for growing many agricultural commodities. Rich soils and good rainfall mean that chemical fertiliser and intensive farming methods tend tobe unnecessary.
The state is largely self-sustaining in fresh fruit and vegetables. Agriculture and allied sectors are the mainstay of the economy.
They are important sources of raw materials and demand for many industrial products, particularly fertiliser, pesticides, agricultural implements and a variety of consumer goods. The fisheries sector occupies a very important place in the socio-economic development of the state.
It is a big source of employment opportunities for many people, especially rural population. It has a huge export potential. The state government has invested adequately in fisheries due to the natural resources which the state is blessed with. Fresh fish, crabs, shrimps and dried fish abound in almost all the local governments. Opportunities to do business in agriculture are enormous. Specific investment opportunities dwell in coffee, oil palm, cocoa, coconut/copra and spice crops.
The government has made some special incentives for those interested in agribusiness projects with a special tax rate of 20 per cent for agribusiness projects and other general tax breaks. One of the recent success stories is palm oil. Several key investors have developed projects that have been well suited for palm oil. Other significant investment opportunities remain in the state, but agribusiness certainly is a promising sector for astute investors. The state government has focused on the production of sufficient food for the teaming population of State. The state through the Ministry of Agriculture and Natural Resources provides direct assistance to farmers in agricultural mechanisation, tree crop development, agricultural credit, provision of improved and high yielding planting materials and other agricultural input, farm settlement scheme, communal farming, livestock and fisheries development.
Other services provided through the Ministry include veterinary, produce inspection and agricultural extension services and produce inspection.
Since 2007, a new generation of farmers has emerged from the Youth Empowerment through Agriculture (YETA) scheme with the establishment of cluster farms. OFN/Delta Farms Ltd., a joint initiative of the Obasanjo Farms and the state government is producing the highest number of poultry in the country.
The state government is to partner with the Niger Delta Basin Authority to use agriculture to solve unemployment problem and redirect the energies of the youths in the region.
GovernorEmmanuel Uduaghan said a partnership with the agency would, therefore, be a tonic that would accelerate the agricultural programme of the state government.
He said the state has invited investors from Taiwan to contribute towards the state agricultural programme even as he explained that his administration believes in private sector participation in agriculture.
The governor said some experts commissioned by the state have completed feasibility studies on an aquaculture estate in the state, adding that emphasis would be placed on aquaculture and rice production.
The governor, who said agriculture holds the key to peace and security, said "farmers are to be encouraged and we are using agriculture to promote peace and security. Delta is a natural advantage for agri-business.The state has considerable natural advantages.
In fact, the state 's economic future will depend on the expansion of its promising agriculture, fisheries, manufacturing and forestry sectors.
The Ministry of Agriculture is the main agency for regulating and developing activities relating to agriculture, horticulture, fishing, animal husbandry, etc. It is implementing various schemes and policies for the sector. The ministry is actively engaged in promoting entrepreneurial activities in the segments of fish processing as well as fruits and vegetables processing.

As the old saying goes, "As Lawerence Tynes goes so do the New York Giants"…and this week was no different. The Giants were able to hold off a fierce attack as Tony Romo was throwing balls right at defenders with no mercy. Tynes has had a fabulous season and the Giants are off to a good start. He is 24-26 on the season from field goal range with his only two misses being from outside of 40 yards. He was able to hold off the Cowboys on Sunday with 5 fg's, with a long of 43. We all know that the secret to success is a great kicking game and the Giants have a great weapon. His 4th quarter scoring was the only scoring of the quarter as he single handedly embarassed the hapless Cowboys and their ridiculous D-Coordinator Rex Ryan with a Wig. This is Tynes second Vanderjacked Weekly Award of the season, after not winning one last year. It's clear he has one goal in mind and that is hold that amazing trophy at the end of the year! and with games like last week he will certainly be in the running! So congrats to the "Pride of Troy (college)" or "Giant from Greenock (Florida)"Lawerence Tynes on getting Vanderjacked!

If you're using the thermometer, this should happen at 220°f or 105°C.
If you're not using a thermometer check for setting by putting a teaspoon of jam on to a cooled plate, push it with your finger.
If it wrinkles, it is done.
If you're adding the almonds, do so right at the end.
Cool and bottle.
Store in a dry, cool place.

So I recently got emails from the lady that bought my APHA gelding who is soon to be three. I have had him since he was 5 months old and I recently had to sell him because my dad got transferred to Texas. Im still very sad about having to sell him but I am very happy with the owners I chose to take him. He will always be my baby though.
They took him to Sisters washington and trail rode him up in the mountains. Can you believe this was only his third time with someone on his back!!! She said he did awesome and didnt spook at anything.
And here he is Sherman!!
