IDEI is a social enterprise committed to providing long term solutions to poverty, hunger and malnutrition. IDEI empowers smallholder farmers to overcome the constraint of water for irrigation by providing affordable irrigation technologies. Using these technologies farmers shift from once a year cultivation to round the year cultivation of crops.
IDEI has developed and disseminated the following pro-poor technologies:
1. Water lifting technologies such as treadle pumps for lifting water from below the ground
2. Water application technologies (drip systems and sprinklers) which optimize water use in arid regions
3. Water storage technologies
4. Sustainable agriculture technologies (vermiwash, bio-pesticides and fertilizers, nursery plantation)
IDEI believes the poor are not "recipients of charity" but "entrepreneurs" eager to build their own future. IDEI is unique in promoting a pioneering market-development model which envisages the integration of poor smallholders with markets, both as buyers of inputs and as vendors of high-value agricultural produce. Besides developing and disseminating the relevant technologies, IDEI empowers smallholder farmers by informing and training them about better practices and inputs; and by integrating them into markets through better supply chains and market linkages. IDEI's innovative "Profit for Progress" methodology involves creating and nurturing private sector supply chains engaged in the manufacture and distribution of the technologies at fair prices which incorporate a profit margin for themselves.
Through its work IDEI has reached out to over 1.3 Million farmer households (7 million people) cumulatively. Currently there are over 1, 500 members in the supply chain network that includes manufacturers, distributors, dealers and village based mechanics.
IDEI's programs have the following positive impacts:
1. Economic Empowerment: Net additional annual cash income of USD 500 per family, decrease in cost of irrigation and energy use per unit area irrigated, increase in employment, and multiplier effect in local economy as increased income is spent on local services and products. Till date customer farmers have generated over 1 Billion as net additional income (cumulatively)
2. Environmental Well-being: Decrease in CO2 emissions and significant savings in diesel, electricity and water use. Till date over 2 million tCO2 eq carbon has been ofset, over 600 million litres of diesel saved and over 700 million kWh electricity saved. In addition to these over 5 Billion cu mtr of water has been saved.
3. Social Benefits: Decrease in seasonal migrations and women's workload, improved access to education for children and better quality of life for smallholder families. Smallholders are no longer on the periphery of society as a marginalized group but active participants in social processes.
4. Employment Generated: with the promotion of IDEI developed technologies till date over 500 million work days employment has been generated on the farm and over 1.45 Million employment generated in the supply chain.
IDEI envisages to reach out to 30 million people by 2020 and; increase geographical presence across villages from 2 to 10 percent in India.
IDEI is not receiving any funding from EU sources currently.

Historical Traveler Reviews Aquabella Hotel Aix-en-Provence
Pleasantly surprised
Stayed in September. I was pleasantly surprised by the hotel. On arrival, noting the lobby I expected it to be ho-hum, but then the rooms were very nice size, and that bathrooms clean and nice showers also !! I actually enjoyed my stay there. I think for the overall price, it was a deal. Good location on the walled border of Aix. I was able to walk 15 minutes to the bus depot to catch my trains, by walking on the main street, rather than the cobble stones of the old town. Nice pool area. The dinners at the restaurant were actually quite nice. Also, they offer a coupon for free wine the first night at dinner, and given it's house wine, it was actually very very good. I would stay here again if I ever went back to Aix...but I doubt I'd go back to Aix, the city itself is overated.
Good Spot
My wife and I stayed 2 nights at the Hotel in early October 2004. We loved the location of the Hotel and thought the price was very reasonable. The Staff was largely unhelpful and occassionally neglectful, so be prepared to fend for yourself. The room was quite nice, actually, and large by Euro standards. There is a fantastic spa facility attached to the Hotel, if you enjoy that. Overall, a great place to stay in Aix (which is a great city, by the way) but dont expect to be pampered by the staff.
Enjoyed our stay
My wife and I stayed at Aquabella for three nights starting September 2nd. It was a great location for walking Aix and seeing the sights. The hotel was modern, clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the breakfast on the terrace. The staff was friendly and very helpful. Decent restaurant on site. Loved the Thermes Sextius Spa connected to the hotel. Highly recommend.
Excellent Hotel
Stayed at this hotel early September 2004 for 6 nights.
There's nothing bad to say about this hotel it was spotless, the staff were friendly and helpful and the facilities are excellent.
I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone planning to stay in Aix.
One tip though...if there's a large group of Americans staying get to breakfast before them!! The devastation after they've left!!!!!
Great hotel, horrible city
This was a great hotel in a depressing city. Aquabella was the only hotel that had signs leading to it off of the highway. Good location close to Cours Mirabeau, which is the main strip with cafes. Too bad the cafes serve disgusting food. Aix-en-Provence and french food is highly overrated.
The room and lobby were very modern and clean. Thank god there was actually the opportunity to take a proper shower compared to our Paris and Nice hotels that only offered the "telephone shower". Breakfast was very dissappointing. Front desk staff were not as friendly as our other experiences.
The only nice thing about Aix en Provence
I left a 4 star hotel to come to the Aquabella which is only a 3 star.
I like this hotel , the rooms are of a good size , the food is good and the staff are(uniquely for the South of France ) friendly , polite and helpful.
My only objection to the Aquabella is that it is in that be cursed by God, awful , mean minded, over priced , rude,bad value , disgrace to the myth of French good food , I will never go there again ,pit of hell called Aix en Provence.
Nice hotel
Clean hotel. Hard to find but has available parking.Room size and bathroom size are good. Staff was not particularly helpful. Very close to Cathedral and not too far from Cours Mirabeau.
Great Group Hotel
While researching Provence to write a group tour itinerary we found the Aquabella Hotel. It was November 10th, a Sunday night, getting dark, and we were lucky to get a room. Went out to the parking lot to get luggage and
had a flat tire on our rental car. The next day was Armistice Day, a national holiday. Went back into hotel to find help. Sunday night, nothing open, Monday holiday, nothing open. One of the young girls working at the front desk decided to change the tire herself. Bless her heart!! I called EuropeCar Emergency Desk in Paris and they advised me to drive the car to Marseille Airport and change cars so we would have a spare. We took their advice and since it is only 30 minutes each way we felt far safer. The hotel is only three years old and beautifully furnished. Clean, bright, rooms and all twin beds and plenty of room for luggage and nice closets & drawers. All the rooms are exactly the same so we were very impressed with the qualifications for bringing our group of women to stay at Aquabella. Beautiful restaurant and a Spa!
We hope our wait list clears for rooms September 2003. Judith

Yes, yes, yes! I will and have bought this balm a hundred times and will keep doing it over and over again! So tingly, ever so slightly minty, moisturizing, and perfect! All other balms should just move over because no one can beat BB! I've used this since high school (proabaly about 7 years) and still love it just as much as the first time I tried it. I have one of these lovely little yellow tubes in every room, every purse, in my desk, in my car and I still want more! Wear it under lipstick, all by its little self, use as a cuticle cream in a pinch. What more can I say, if I find Mr. Burt I will marry him!!!! I will try to be as unbiased as possible :) Heres the deal..
PRICE-$2.50...its cheap, girls! Who doesn't love cheap!! PACKAGING-Not glam by any means...its just lip balm in a typical tube package with pop off lid. Yellow is cute and helps you find it in the bottom of your purse! SCENT-Lightly minty and zingy. TEXTURE-Creamy, not at all sticky, and gives a nice fluid, smooth base for lipsticks or filling in lips with liner (Try this and MAC Spice for a polished yet natural lip. USES-I love it under lipsticks that I find drying, with Benetint on lips, always put it on before bed, and it really can be used a cuticle balm in a pinch...it definitely helps! For $2.50 just go out and try it...you might find the love of your life like I have. HG ALL THE WAY!

I simply love this lip balm - the peppermint taste, the consistency, how it lasts on my lips & how my lips feel better with this one. I always use this under my lipsticks. It may not be as moisturising as Carmex, which I use when I go to sleep, but this is a must-have for me in the day.
UPDATE: Very sadly, after about 1/2 a tube, I have developed an allergic reaction to this. My lips become itchy, and then form a thick & rough layer of dead skin on my lips. Takes about 1 wk for lips to return to normal. Will not be using this again.

Join us in the fight for real religious freedom

Cruel Bill Plays Politics with Women's Health and Lives: Why Catholics Reject 20-Week Ban
The US House and Senate have introduced a 20-week abortion ban. This legislation is an extreme and heartless attack on a woman's right to make a decision about what is best for herself and her family. Read CFC's statements on the House and Senate bills and tell your Senator to oppose this ban.

You Are Not Alone: Catholic Women
and the Abortion Decision
Catholic women facing the abortion decision often feel alone when they walk into a clinic. "You Are Not Alone" is a new resource that affirms their decisions through a solid grounding in our religious tradition.
Order "You Are Not Alone" from the CFC online store.
Catholic Theology the Bishops Won't Talk About
It's not just regular Catholics that are being left out of the bishops' synod. There's more to Catholic teaching on sexuality and reproductive choices than you'll hear from the Vatican. Watch this video to learn about some of the best kept secrets about Catholicism on these issues that are critical to Catholics today.
Coalition for Liberty & Justice
Liberty and Justice for All
A new short film from the Coalition for Liberty & Justice shows what happens when religious extremists in the US use religion as a license to discriminate against hospital staff, teachers and other workers who do not conform to the extremists' views of what is acceptable. This discrimination takes place using your tax dollars. Read more.

"I say it's high time we update the wording of the presidential oath of office, which is specified in Article II, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution."
The situation on Texas' southern border is not the only refugee crisis facing the United States. Thousands of Afghan interpreters who need to get out before the Taliban kills them for collaborating with U.S. troops are stuck over there because the State Department has run out of visas. Make no mistake, this is a test of our national character: These men risked their lives to help us bring democracy to Afghanistan, but they might die because our government doesn't work.
"Just following the will of the people." That's been the GOP rationalization for accomplishing absolutely nothing for five and a half years. Doesn't matter what the issue is. Immigration. Jobs. Infrastructure. Climate change. Banking reform. The proliferation of substandard dental schools in Nebraska.
Liberal megadonor Tom Steyer, failing to raise any significant outside money for his global warming Super PAC, turned to one of his San Francisco neighbors for a million dollar check. It was Herb Sandler, the subprime mortgage lender at the heart of the housing crisis, and like Steyer a huge hypocrite.
Do you have personal issues? Do you want to seem intelligent, well informed and on-top-of-it-all without having to bother to put in any effort or time to see whether your assertions are accurate? If so, then join the trend that's all the rage in the 21st century: show indignation now and worry (or, more likely, don't) about accuracy later. And, for heaven's sake, never EVER worry about "nuance."
President Obama came to my tiny home state of Delaware on Thursday with a "new" initiative to repair deteriorating infrastructure around the country (and to repair his declining polling numbers).
Despite the media play Chicago gets, it isn't the official "Murder Capital of the U.S.A."
With Barack Obama's approval ratings getting dragged down by a floundering foreign policy, we might miss one of his biggest successes in a place no one expected-Iran. Whether we extend the interim anti-nuke deal or reach a longer-term agreement to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons, Obama has backed our enemy into a corner. But fans of cynicism, failure, and partisanship should take heart, because there's still time for congress to turn what should be a win-win for the United States into yet another loss.
Kudos to the nation's newspaper editors for making a valiant effort to prepare us for the upcoming (July 28) 100th anniversary of the beginning of the First World War.
Over the past several weeks we have seen a significant increase in illegal immigration, as thousands of unaccompanied minors pour across what seems an invisible southern border into the United States. The mass immigration has, as to be expected, put an enormous strain on local resources, and it has heated up the immigration debate in the US.
Recently, I wrote that summer is the time for stupid political stunts, and John Boehner should honor that tradition by making good on his vow to sue President Obama for alleged executive abuses. "Do it, Mr. Speaker," I urged. "Give us a laugh during silly season."
As you've probably noticed, the airwaves and news pages have been filled with liberals deliberately lying about the meaning of the Supreme Court's Hobby Lobby decision (Conservatives want to deny women birth control, Republicans are trying to stop women from having sex, yadda yadda yadda).
Happy Tuesday, everybody, and God bless America.
Hillary Clinton called the Hobby Lobby decision "deeply disturbing."
Pity poor Dr. Mehmet Oz. He gets big bucks hosting the popular Opra Winfrey-syndicated "The Dr. Oz Show" on TV. But now he's come under fire in Congress, in the media, and on the Internet for promoting health supplements that sold big due to his effusive recommendations -- products now considered by many to be largely useless. How did he respond?

Ohio, Geauga County, Births, Deaths and Stillbirths (FamilySearch Historical Records)Edit This Page
From FamilySearch Wiki
|This article describes a collection of historical records scheduled to become available at FamilySearch.org.
Record Description
This collection covers the years 1909 through 1950 and consists of the following records:
- Birth Records (1909-1950)
- Death Records and Stillbirths (1900-2009)
The records are from the Geauga County Health District.
|You will be able to browse through images in this collection when it is published.
Record Content
The record content varies by record type. It may include any of the following pieces of information:
- Name of primary individual
- Event date
- Event place
- Residence
- Age
- Sex
- Names of parents
- Biographical information about parents such as date and place of birth
- Names of relatives or friends
- Names of witnesses
- Dates the documents were written and recorded
- Occupations
- Name of undertaker
- Name of officiator
How to Use the Record
To begin your search it is helpful to know the following:
- The place where the event occurred
- The approximate date the event occurred
- The name of the individual or individuals such as the names of the bride and groom
Search the Collection
To search the collection you will need to follow this series of links:
⇒Select "Browse through images" on the initial collection page
⇒Select the "County" category
⇒Select the "Record Type, Date Range and Volume" category which takes you to the images
Search the collection by image comparing the information with what you already know about your ancestors to determine if the image relates to them. You may need to look at several images and compare the information about the individuals listed in those images to your ancestors to make this determination.
Using the Information
When you have located your ancestor's record, carefully evaluate each piece of information given. These pieces of information may give you new biographical details that can lead you to other records about your ancestors. Add this new information to your records of each family.
For example:
- Use the birth date or age along with the place of birth of each partner to find a couple's birth records and parents' names.
- Use the birth date or age along with the place of birth to find the family in census records.
- Use the residence and names of the parents to locate church and land records.
- Occupations listed can lead you to other types of records such as employment or military records.
- Use the parents' birth places to find former residences and to establish a migration pattern for the family.
- The name of the officiator may be a clue to their religion or area of residence in the county.
- The name of the undertaker, mortuary, or cemetery could lead you to funeral and cemetery records, which often include the names and residences of other family members.
- Compile the entries for every person who has the same surname. This is especially helpful in rural areas or if the surname is unusual.
- Continue to search the records to identify children, siblings, parents, and other relatives who may have been born, married, or died in the same county or nearby. This can help you identify other generations of your family or even the second marriage of a parent. Repeat this process for each new generation you identify.
- When looking for a person who had a common name, look at all the entries for the name before deciding which is correct.
Tips to Keep in Mind
- Earlier records may not contain as much information as more recent records.
- There is also some variation in the information given from one record to another record.
Unable to Find Your Ancestor?
If you are unable to find the ancestors you are looking for, try the following:
- Check for variant spellings of the surnames.
- Check for an index. There are often indexes created by local genealogical and historical societies.
- Search the indexes and records of nearby counties.
Record History
The county began recording vital events in accordance with state law.
Why the Record Was Created
The records were created to track public health issues and to safeguard the interests of the residents.
Record Reliability
The information in the records is usually reliable, but depends upon the reliability of the informant.

Righto - that, I suppose is us. The games have been a lot of fun, which is, when all's said and done, a significant part of the point; Glasgow has done a barry joab, it must be said.
Anyway, thanks all for you company and comments. Night.
That appears to have morphed into that, save more clapping and cheering.
Obligatory fireworks. Kylie and Lulu simpering. Clapping.
Lulu and Kylie return, minus surnames, for the finale. Everyone's joining in. It's nice.
Blue and white tickertape. Bagpipes. Auld Lang Syne. Swedge.
The crowd sway, people are having fun, people have had fun.
Did ye ken: Hazel Irvine is based on Elspeth from the Family Ness.
Des Clarke signs off. Dougie McLean plays us out.
If only Primal Scream were from Glasgow.
Tom Daley reveals the secrets of existence, and then it's on to Kirani James. His tracksuit top is need badly.
Kylie pogos slightly to affect enthusiasm and enjoyment, as her soul plans its own funeral. Then a few fireworks, then an interview with Tom Daley.
La la la la la la-la la, la la la la la la-la la, la la la la la la-la la, la la la la la la-la la, la la la la la la-la la, la la la la la la-la la, a la la la la la-la la, la la la la la la-la la, la la la la la la-la la, la la la la la la-la la, la la la la la la-la la, la la la la la la-la la, la la la la la la-la la, la la la la la la-la la.
"The final segment of the section - the celebration", announces Andrew Cotter. I Can't Get You Out Of My Head begins - a tune, granted, but one that can rarely have sounded worse. There is peculiar oranges and lemons dancing on the grass, and for contrast, more S&My-style shenaniga on stage. I think this is to signify that our psyches comprise two distinct aspects.
This is still going on. It's basically a gig. She's singing Beautiful, pointing at various members of the crowd not known to her - I take it she's never been to Glasgow before.
"Does nobody know The Locomotion any more? There seems to be a lot of Sloshing going on!" emails Jan Macpherson.
Decadence of modern society, right there.
"One can hope", pleads Matt Dony. "Where The Wild Roses Grow next?"
Kylie's removed her basqueygown, to reveal a kind of whiteygoldy babydollbasquey affair. "So much beautiful energy here tonight, I admire your commitment and your passion so much." I'm tearing up here, in bits. Please excuse me.
This is one of the worst things I've seen in my pus, and it's majestic. Some topless muscled men have taken to the stage, if one can take to anything other than Twitter. They look dead cool with their toplessness and their muscles and everything.
Dancers are performing the brand new dance which everybody is doing. Notions have been got. Feeling blue has been dismissed.
A key has been gone up, and it's the rancid side of rank. People are dancing behind, athletes are gurning into the camera, and all is well with the world. It's Locomotion now! What a segue! Always preferred Little Eva's version myself, but it's going down well inside Hampden.
It's All The Lovers now. Kylie's still not changed her outfit, which is proper scrubber. She's sung songs! How can she be so crass!
"Put your hands up if you feel the love! Get your hands up!" she exhorts. "I'm pretty sure there are few lovers in the audience tonight! Am I right!" Er, this is Glesga.
"Do you realise how beautiful you all look and feel right now?" before chewing a biro top and losing the thread of conversation that happened mere seconds previously.
"So tell me this:" she continues. "Do you believe in love?"
But she doesn't have something to say about it.
Kylie's singing another song - one I'm deeply ashamed to admit is new to me.
"The singer of the Robert Burns' song Ae Fond Kiss, was Karen Matheson OBE. Great Celtic singer". Thanks to Ray Account for that.
"The Wessexes!" exclaims David Wall. "I know the theme is 'all back to ours', but 'home-made- doesn't have to mean cheap and second rate. Are the organisers even trying anymore?"
We've been diddled.
Kylie trivia: Someone in my junior 2 class took the day off when Charlene got married to Scott - he was too upset to come in, unable to handle the rejection.
She's singing Spinning Around. Hoping for Tears On My Pillow next.
She's carried onto the stage wearing a kind of Statue of Liberty heiddress.
It's Kylie!
"These games bring the spirit of our Commonwealth", says Edward, the chosen royal, then talks about sharing our "common wealth". Which presumably exempts him from sharing his uncommon wealth. He proclaims the games closed.
Nae way. The announcer, he of the eyebrows, is only called Des Clarke. Wonder if he talks to God.
Ceremonial high-fiving, then some lingering. "The handover is complete." Some might call it a handsomethingelse.
"I believe that anything is possible sings the singer", now behind a screen showing a hologram car with the cunning number plate "GOLDCOAST." Is there no end to human creativity? Is it possible for something to be more annoying? Can God create a rock too heavy for him to pick up? Riddle me that.
This is now straight terrible, and basically informing everyone that Gold Coast is hot, but unbearably annoying.
"Gold Coast Schmold Coast", reckons Simon McMahon. "Bring on the dancing teacakes."
Now some Goldcoastian singing about sun and stars and sky. Not so much about wideness.
People are acting out an infomercial telling us how wonderful Gold Coast is. "But the natural environment's pretty cool too..."
"The 'tent shoogling' that accompanied The Prides music is a common practice in Glasgow", explains Marc Orr. "Glaswegians always take little tents to gigs and shake them about whenever the music gets *****; I took one to a Bryan Adams gig once and nearly broke my arms."
Sounds like an elaborate excuse to me...
Waltzing Matilda on the bagpipes. Credit to the evil mind of whoever came up with that - next: Chasing Cars on the comb and tissue.
"In tribute to the opening ceremony", writes Al Loch, "(John Barrowman and his weird interchangeable American & Scottish accents) did Lulu address the crowd in her best Glaswegian or her Home Counties one? Why do they do that?"
She didn't do much talking, but it's interesting how accents change - some get stronger when left isolated, others disappear, presumably on principle and not.
The various Weegie officials are thanking everyone. Everyone is clapping, and the games' flag is handed to the mayor of Gold Coast. Or "City of Gold Coast", as he calls it.
"I visited Glasgow in 1991 for the purpose of showing my 8 day old son off to his dad's family", emails Karen Bridgen, "It was cold, wet and we spent seven weeks there instead of the planned seven days. On the plus side I found the best pakoras I'd ever tasted in Motherwell and my father-in-law accidentally drank breast milk."
"Accidentally"? Some people will believe anything.
The current song is Robert Burns' Ae Fond Kiss, tweets Ranald Baird. It's now finished, as we hear some jangly guitar strumming.
And, of course, Brenda beat into second place the immortal Gary St John.
Someone is don't recognise is singing a song I don't recognise, and I missed Hazel's intro, I'm afraid. In any event, someone I'd expected to see at an affair like this who doesn't appear to be in attendance, is the legendary Brenda Cochrane.
"Cymru am byth", emails Matt Dony. "In the proud tradition of 'last goal wins', can we say that Frankie Jones just won the Commonwealth Games?" A glorious Welsh victory, ignore the medal table."
"Glasgow, you were pure dead brilliant" concludes his princeness - after asserting these the best games ever. Wonder how much of the £5m he contributed.
Prince Imran is still talking, as Team Scotland wildly cheers itself and the crowd joins in. £5m pounds has been raised for charity.
The winner of the David Nixon award, given to someone who has performed and inspired, is the Welsh rhythmic gymnast, Frankie Jones - the prize is a trophy that looks like a miniature Uefa Cup. She's literally kvelling.
"History that belongs to Glasgow!" Lord growls to finish. Now, Prince Imran of Malaysia, President of the Commonwealth, is talking.
The camera pans and we see a panoply of smiling faces, which is lovely. The pleasure the locals have taken in these games is palpable, and ultimately, probably its legacy too.
Sport is so very very good.
He then praises Glasgow, his city - so himself, by associative extension (only joking, Lord, ma mate) - and pauses for applause. Eventually, some arises, and then he bestows his haskamah upon the athletes.
Lord Smith of Kelvin, head organiser, is making a speech, beginning with some basic anaphorism. "Tonight we stand together, tonight we are filled with pride, tonight we are a Commonwealth." He fails to elucidate quite what that means, but from the earnesty of his tone and coupon, I'm certain it's something.
The UK's bid to become America continues apace, as the military tattoo turns up. They're playing the bagpipes - which might actually have improved Prides' song.
Email! "Loved London 2012. Loved Glasgow 2014. Roll on September 2015 and the Rugby World Cup in England – that is going to be fantastic too", enthuses Des
In other words, sport's good.
Gosh, Prides, they're called. That was not good, not good at all - they can't much like the Clydesiders they were purporting to thank.
Behold! Some young people! One had one of those fringes and one of those beards, another has some of those glasses, a third has one of those other fringes. They're playing something which sounds like it was rejected as a Hue and Cry B-side.
Lulu and Deacon Blue. They must've raised the age of consent for singing and playing musical instruments to 50.
Non-athletes are booncing. Athletes are not booncing, and presumably taking on board fluids they've got secreted aboot their person.
The various kindly souls who've helped the games function - workers, emergency service types and aw now arrive inside Hampden. They're happy.
"Pure dead briwyunt Glasgow" is how Deacon Blue are introduced. People are swaying, they're playing Dignity. Ironically, I imagine, given that Ricky Ross has his top button done up
A thing is no longer a thing unless it has fake flamethrowers. The sound is not the best. But people are happy.
Lulu is on stage, in obligatory tartan, as Shout begins and people run out of tents. Athletes are approaching the cameras. It's on!
The chap who's introducing matters has actually been to an actual shop and asked them to address his eyebrows. No more than he and they deserve.
We've crossed to the Scots in the commentary box. People who aren't us will soon be enjoying theirselves.
And here's Andy Bull's debrief.
Moment of the games: I'm going for Blessing, followed by Usain Bolt discussing with your, er, princes, whether they work out. Feel free to send in yours.
Earlier this evening, a news reader on 5 live used the letter "haitch". Truly, we have reached the end of days.
BREAKING: Sir Chris Hoy-Velodrome is wearing broon shoes and a dinner shirt.
The organisers are going for "a music festival vibe". Accordingly, no one in the crowd has showered, slept or egested, and busloads of lawyers called Tom and advertisers called Ollie have arrived from Clapham.
Anecdotes from visiting Glasgow:
- Went for football. Open the car door, tickle the door of the car next door. Squeak an apology. "There's nae *****n' point apologising after ye've done it, ya ****!" I did not promise to do so in advance next time.
- Went for a stag. With the stag taking a well-earned, mid-evening snooze in the gutter, a kindly local revived him with a generous splash of warm water.
Please send your equivalents to the address above.
Preamble. There's nothing in the world that's better than a ceremony, apart from other people enjoying themselves, and there's nothing in the world that's better than other people enjoying themselves, apart from nosport, and there's nothing in the world that's better than nosport, apart from a night out in Glasgow. It therefore follows that this Commonwealth Games closing ceremony is easily the best thing to have happened in the history of the world, containing, as it does, enjoying of self done by other people, marking at it will, nosport, and based, as it is, upon a NIGHT OUT IN GLASGOW.
A night out in Glasgow. A ni' oot in Glesga. Truly, some things are beyond satire - or plain, obvious rudeness and facetiousness, as we like to call it around these parts. Still, we can but have a go, but.

Having upgraded all the management tools that make up vCloud Suite 6.0, it became time to upgrade vSphere itself to 6.0. My upgrade did not go as smoothly as I had expected. Following are the steps I took for the upgrade, plus an account of the one major problem I had and its solution. Continue reading vSphere Upgrade Saga: vSphere 6.0

vSphere Upgrade Saga: 6.0 Upgrade through SRM
There are many steps to the upgrade of vSphere, as outlined by KB Article 2109760, with the steps for my environment starting at step 4 (vCNS). However, before I could start my upgrade, I had to upgrade any third-party systems first, as well as to upgrade any Microsoft Windows Servers. Everything went fine for vCNS, View Composer, and View Connection Server. However, problem creep started with the View security server (not really on the list, but if you update the Connection Server, you have to upgrade any security servers at the same time).

vSphere Upgrade Saga: vSphere 6.0, Third-Party
In vSphere Upgrade Saga: Planning for vSphere 6.0, I discussed the need to plan your upgrade as well as the need to delay your upgrade until your third-party software has caught up with VMware's latest release. I now have all the bits for my critical third-party components, and it is time to first upgrade them. Continue reading vSphere Upgrade Saga: vSphere 6.0, Third-Party
vSphere Upgrade Saga: Exchanging HP BL460c G6 with BL460c G8
I recently received a pair of Gen8 blades for my enclosure, and it is time to change out my Gen6 and 7 blades for Gen8. Now, as with every upgrade, a fair amount of planning must occur in order to start this upgrade. I consider it a hardware upgrade, and while it should be straightforward, one cannot simply swap the blades. So much for the easy way. Continue reading vSphere Upgrade Saga: Exchanging HP BL460c G6 with BL460c G8
vSphere Upgrade Saga: Planning for vSphere 6.0
There are many features in vSphere 6.0, such as multi-vCPU Fault Tolerance, that I wish to use for my VMware vCenter Server Appliance (vCSA), as it is the single point of failure. Backups have been made, but they will take quite a while to restore. With the new Fault Tolerance, there is a chance that restore might not be needed, thereby speeding up my recovery. vSphere 6.0 also includes improvements for NSX, VSAN, such as VMCP, long distance vMotion, VVOLs, changes to SSO deployment, and many other existing features, as well as a new web client. All of these make upgrading to 6.0 a worthwhile task. But to do so, you need to first make some preparations. Continue reading vSphere Upgrade Saga: Planning for vSphere 6.0
vSphere Upgrade Saga: Update Order
I have collected quite a few updates over the last few weeks since VMworld ended, and now I should make them. However, the most important non-security update for me is the one for VMware Horizon View. My View environment is old, and though it is maintained, I am in need of several upgrades to Windows, View, and underlying bits. Given that I have nearly everything installed within my environment (except vCAC and vCD at the moment), it is time to find the proper upgrade order.

By MIKE DUNHAM
of the Anchorage Daily News
ANCHORAGE, Alaska — NOAA's National Geophysical Data Center puts the total deaths resulting from the Great Alaska Earthquake of 1964 at 139. Fifteen of them are attributed to falling buildings or crumbling ground during the quake itself. The rest were killed by water.
Thirty-two people died when a wave 30 feet high boiled up in Port Valdez. Similar sized waves took 12 lives in Seward and 15 in Kodiak and its surrounding villages. Another dozen perished when a wall of water 40 feet high smashed into Whittier. In the Prince William Sound village of Chenega, a third of the population — 23 people — was swept away by a 90-foot wave.
Smaller numbers of casualties were reported in settlements across the region, from Cape St. Elias to Port Nellie Juan. One death took place at Shoup Bay on Valdez Arm, where the wave may have splashed 220 feet up the Chugach mountains.
In many places, the ground was still shaking as the water hit.
"We have this picture in our heads that first an earthquake happens, then the tsunami comes," said Mike West, State Seismologist at the Alaska Earthquake Information Center at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. "But in Alaska's fjords, something else happens."
In the second biggest earthquake ever recorded, that "something else" was massive.
"The entire floor of Prince William Sound failed," said Cindi Preller, Tsunami Program Manager for NOAA Alaska Region. "It was chaos."
There are different kinds of tsunamis, and the 1964 earthquake set off a variety of them.
One was a general global splashing generated by the magnitude of the quake. The 1964 event was so strong it made the whole world "ring like a bell," reads a U.S. Geological Survey pamphlet. Vibrations shook the planet for weeks and caused measurable sloshing as far away as Florida.
Shifts in water levels were recorded in 47 states, including land-locked ones. Even in South Africa fluctuations were seen in wells.
One type of tsunami produced by the earthquake, seiche waves, caused no casualties, but were violent enough to sink boats in Louisiana. Seiche action refers to standing waves in enclosed or confined water.
They can be caused in different ways. Those caused by seismic disruptions can occur in places with no direct connection to bodies of water near the source of an earthquake.
Tectonic tsunamis are created directly by the shock of a fracture.
They tend to come in a series of waves rather than a single surge, like the ripples formed when you plunk a rock into a calm pool and the displaced water spreads out in rings.
In an undersea fracture, displacement of the water comes from below. University of Alaska Anchorage geology professor Kristine Crossen said the sudden upthrust at one spot of Prince William Sound was so large it took two minutes for the water to run off it.
"When the ocean bottom is moved, it sets up a wave train," said Peter Haeussler, U.S. Geological Survey research geologist.
These trains can travel thousands of miles at speeds of 500 miles an hour. In the deep water of the open ocean they seem small. But as they enter shallow water near shore, they grow slower and taller.
In 1964, tectonic waves were generated from two areas in the massive rupture, said Preller. One was near the epicenter, where the quake began, in northern Prince William Sound. The other was near Kodiak, hundreds of miles away.
These waves took lives and leveled buildings from Alaska to California, often with the most lethal kind of wave in the 1964 quake, landslide tsunamis, which happen when the earthquake causes an avalanche.
That's what happened in Lituya Bay in Glacier Bay National Park on July 9, 1958. Tumbling rock and ice sent up a megatsunami 1,720 feet high, the largest wave in modern times.
The steep, mile-high mountains we see above ground throughout the southern coast of Alaska are mirrored by a similar submarine geography, where slopes can be further encumbered by millions of years of volcanic residue, glacial silt and other muck.
A strong shake can send incalculable tons of material tumbling under water, unseen and undetected until the displaced ocean shoots into the air.
"Those are really devilish," West said. "And they're not currently predictable."
Valdez was founded during the gold rush on glacial fill and alluvial deposits surrounded by precipitous mountains. The ground at the old town site was flat and easy to build on and ran right to the edge of a deep water port.
When the earthquake began, the delta deposits liquified. A mile of waterfront slumped into the bottom of the harbor, pushing water toward the open sea.
A home movie taken from the deck of the freighter Chena, tied to the city dock, shows the 400-foot ship sinking into a giant hole in the water, the bottom of the harbor exposed. Then, with ferocious frothing, the ocean crashes back.
Those on the dock — citizens, curious children and workers — were killed in the first seconds of the quake. Amazingly, the Chena rode out the surge that carried it into the town and left it high and dry — temporarily. New waves hit, some after midnight, and floated it out to sea.
"We think Valdez had two landslipping events," said Preller — one in Valdez Arm, the other right under the dock.
Most Valdez businesses and half its homes were destroyed. Fuel tanks split open and their contents caught fire, a catastrophe repeated Whittier, Seward and Crescent City.
The fjords and coves throughout Prince William Sound, the area nearest where the quake began, experienced similar underwater landslides causing waves estimated to have splashed as much as 220 feet above sea level. Most of these places had few if any residents.
But there were people in Whittier and Seward, where, as in Valdez, the narrow harbors confined by steep slopes channelized the water into a bore, amplifying the wave action like a giant bathtub.
Arriving right after the quake, or while it was still rumbling, they gave residents no warning and little chance to escape. "The first tsunamis hit two minutes after the earthquake started," said Preller. The quake lasted 41/2 minutes.
The island of Chenega, southwest of Valdez, is not a dead-end inlet, like Whittier. But it is surrounded by precipitous submarine channels. "Prince William Sound is an environment where the inlets are extremely deep," said Preller. The underwater valleys had much the same effect as the above-water fjords.
The first wave rose smoothly but with astonishing speed, catching people trying to outrun it, trapping others at home. A second wave struck more violently, smashing every structure in the village except for the school. A third scattered whatever was left.
Survivors huddled by a fire through the night with no way to get word of their plight to the outside world.
People in Kodiak figured the big quake was shaking only their neighborhood.
The first inkling it might be more serious came when they noticed long distance phone service was out.
In the village of Kaguyak on the south end of Kodiak island, however, residents observed the odd swell on the ocean. They began moving away from the shore and sent radio warnings to nearby communities. Warnings picked up elsewhere on the island, alerting the people of Kodiak city 20 minutes before the first wave arrived.
The city's fire trucks ran their sirens to warn the population. Police went door to door urging evacuation and a line of cars started up Pillar Mountain. The town's taxis used CB radios to establish an ad hoc communications network.
The first surge came into Kodiak harbor at low tide, about half an hour after the quake. It didn't reach much past the docks and is thought to have been a landslide tsunami. "It came much sooner than we would have expected from a tectonic tsunami," said Preller. Most of the affected towns experienced both types of wave, she said.
Thirty minutes later a second wave came into the city, pushing boats into the city streets, floating cars away, wrenching buildings from their foundations and causing walls to collapse. It was not the towering breaker that swept up the Chena in Valdez or wiped out a sawmill and its workers in Whittier, but more on the lines of a large swell.
"Survivors most often describe tsunamis as a rapidly rising tide," said Haeussler. "They're like a continuous rise of the ocean that never stops. Often you cannot outrun it. It just overwhelms everything in its path."
At least three more waves ripped through the town in the next few hours. It's presumed the highest reached 26 feet above mean low tide. But no one saw it. It came in pitch dark after midnight when most of the population had moved up the hill. Kodiak fatalities tended to come not from people on land, but from those who were in fishing boats caught in the surge.
Kodiak was luckier than Crescent City, Calif. Residents there received a warning three hours after the Alaska quake began. Many evacuated before the tectonic wave came in, just before midnight.
Half an hour later a second wave, lower than the first, rolled into the harbor.
"People thought that was it," said Lori Dengler, a professor of geology at Humboldt State University in Northern California. "They came back."
At 1:20 a.m., a wave swirled into the waterfront that broke the tide gauge. The fourth wave is estimated to have reached 22 feet, Dengler said. "It was terribly timed. It came just at the top of the tide."
More than 100 homes were destroyed. Eleven people died. Damage was estimated at $23 million.
Others died in the rising waters at Newport, Ore., and Klamath River, Calif. Damage of $600,000 was sustained by boats and harbor facilities in San Raphael, Calif.
In Hawaii, tsunamis from the Alaska earthquake cadid about $70,000 in damage. Waves in several places were as high as the one that devastated Crescent City.
But no lives were lost. When the tsunami warning sirens went off, the Hawaiians paid heed. They'd learned from another Alaska quake 18 years before.
