1968 Plymouth Valiant - Flat BastardWritten by on October 1, 2012 Contributors: Robert McGaffin This '68 Valiant might be an illegitimate creation, but with a 700hp big-block and full road race suspension, it was a hoot to make
Failure is a beautiful thing. As crazy as that sounds, history doesn't lie. A curious pharmacist whipped up Coke as a cure for headaches, a Kodak engineer accidently invented superglue while designing a plastic gun sight lens, and Play-Doh was originally marketed as a cleaning paste. Granted no one aspires to suck, but sometimes failure can lead to greatness. Jon Clark's 1968 Plymouth Valiant is a perfect example. Despite packing 528 ci of aluminum big-block fury in a teeny-weeny A-Body—the smallest in fact—Jon insists that the end product is an utter failure. That's because what was supposed to be a simple, low-buck build got out of hand with a full Pro Touring suspension, a six-speed stick, and paint that's way too nice for a humble A-Body. While it's understandable to be disappointed when a finished project car deviates from your original vision, in the walk of Pro Touring machines, it's one of the best damn failures you'll ever see.
Like most 40-somethings from Michigan, Jon's been lusting after muscle cars his entire life. He got a job pumping gas before he could drive, and worked as a line mechanic at dealerships during his formative years. "All I've done since childhood is eat, sleep, and breathe cars. I love the smell of gas," he quips. As you might expect from an A-Body owner, Jon's mad love of Mopars runs deep, having owned oddball rides such as a Dodge A100 van and a D100 pickup. His passion for Pentastars led to a gig as the head of Mopar Performance, which he ran for 11 years before becoming an independent consultant.
During Jon's time at Mopar Performance, he met some bad influences that ultimately culminated into the cash-sucking Valiant project. "I started hanging out with Bill Reilly from Reilly Motorsports and Matt Delaney from Delaney Auto Design, and we've all become good friends over the years. Bill was building a '68 Dart with a 528 Hemi, so I thought it would be cool to build a '68 Valiant with a 528 Wedge motor as a cousin car," Jon explains. "Unfortunately for Bill, he didn't know I had my eyes set on the clean six-cylinder, two-door-post Valiant sitting in the corner of his shop. I talked him into selling it to me, and he outfitted it with a complete four-link, K-member, and front suspension from the RMS catalog."
So far, the project was on track. "The idea was to see how badass we could make the thing while keeping the car as simple as possible, and changing as little as possible. Valiants are simple cars, so when you make them too complicated, it's like your parents wearing leather pants," Jon chuckles. The original plan was dropping in a late-model EFI Hemi and an overdrive trans in a good-handling package that anyone could build at home, but Jon got too power hungry. "While researching parts for my 528 build, Edelbrock released its brand-new Victor Max Wedge aluminum raised-runner cylinder heads. I fell in love with the idea of having such new technology in such an old engine platform, and that led to building the motor around an aluminum block."
To give the big-block the bark to match its cubic inches, Jon hooked up with Ray Barton to build a max-effort wedge. The World Products aluminum block got bored to 4.500 inches, then stuffed with a 4.150-inch forged crank, billet rods, and JE forged pistons. Barton then ported the cylinder heads, and matched them up with an Edelbrock intake manifold, a custom COMP hydraulic roller cam, and a Holley EFI system. The result is a stout 700 hp in a perfectly street-friendly package. Backing up all that big-block torque is a Tremec six-speed manual trans, and a Chrysler 8.75-inch rearend fortified with Moser guts.
With an exotic all-aluminum big-block between the framerails, the Valiant had deviated profoundly from its keep-it-simple design mission. As such, the car began taking on a distinct circle track vibe. "I wanted to give the car a NASCAR-inspired road racing look, and Delaney knocked it out of the park by fabbing up a custom deck spoiler to help accomplish this," Jon says. "The side pipes are an interesting story in themselves. I have a friend who works at Texas Motor Speedway who informed me that he had a bunch of exhaust systems laying around that were pulled off of some ARCA cars. We took some measurements and realized that they would fit the Valiant perfectly."
Although all hopes of keeping things low-buck had gone out the window, Jon insisted on keeping the paint as low key as possible. "I was at the Detroit Auto Show one year and ran across a matte-finish AMG Mercedes-Benz SLS at the very back of the booth. I saw the flat metallic gray paint oozing across the body and went nuts," Jon recalls. "I told Matt Delaney that I wanted to paint the Valiant the same color, but he wasn't too thrilled about it at first. After he finished painting the car, he called me and said, 'You would not believe how good the car looks in flat paint.' The Valiant is supposed to be a grandma's car, but the flat paint really brings out the incredible character lines of this body style. Since the car didn't turn out how I originally planned, and it had flat paint, we started calling it 'Flat Bastard.' "
Perhaps Jon is too harsh of a critic, but referring to the project as an illegitimate child seems rather extreme. As he explains, it's not just about the money that went into the project, but how he corrupted his own vision for an A-Body. "I wanted this project to serve as a rallying point for the humble A-Body Mopars, and I picked the most humble of them all, a Valiant, Obviously, somewhere along the way I screwed that all up," he laments. "I think the interior is too complicated because it has a radio. Then I decided I didn't want to fry my innards, so I broke down and put air conditioning in it."
Despite his disappointment, potential emulators can easily tweak certain elements of Flat Bastard and build a similar machine on a lesser budget. "People can snap up a light Dart or Valiant and go have fun using the parts in my car, or substitute the 528 with a late-model Hemi or a mild LA-series small-block while retaining the aftermarket suspension pieces," he reasons. "Then you'd have an inexpensive, lightweight car you can have a ton of fun with on the autocross and lift the front tires with at the dragstrip. The best part is that you can build it yourself using off-the-shelf components."
Regardless of how anyone chooses to build an A-Body, they offer practical benefits that even B- and E-Body diehards can't deny. "I take my 'Cudas and GTXs to car shows, but I've been racing Darts and Demons my entire life. Of all the cars in my fleet, I drive my A-Bodies most often," car builder Delaney explains. "Even with an iron big-block, rollcage and subframe connectors, an A-Body still only weighs 3,200 pounds. These cars are also much easier to drive through the cones on an autocross than a 'Cuda or Road Runner because they have a shorter wheelbase, and you can see the corners of the car more easily from the driver seat. Relative to the rest of the car, A-Bodies just have a much better seating position than a B- or E-Body."
Ultimately, Jon's dream of building a 700hp beater didn't come to fruition and he gets a kick out of calling the Valiant a bastard. Just like an illegitimate love child, however, it proved to be a heck of a lot more fun to make than a legitimate child. As this story is being written, Jon has just returned home from a weekend of autocrossing and 600 miles of street cruising. Not surprisingly, the car performed flawlessly while turning heads in the process. That's not too shabby at all for what he considers an utter failure.
"The great thing about this car is that you can autocross it one day, then change the shock valving and take it to the dragstrip the next day. That wasn't even possible 10 years ago." —Matt Delaney

A great perk of building an A-Body is that trim pieces are in low demand, and therefore dirt cheap. Builder Matt Delaney scored the grille, parking lamps, and taillights for next to nothing at a swap meet.Surprisingly, the monster wedge motor drops right in without any modifications to the engine compartment. The RMS K-member includes big-block motor mounts, and TTI offers a set of off-the-shelf headers to complete the conversion.A great perk of building an A-Body is that trim pieces are in low demand, and therefore dirt cheap. Builder Matt Delaney scored the grille, parking lamps, and taillights for next to nothing at a swap meet.A-Bodies aren't blessed with large wheelwells. To address the situation, the RMS suspension pieces were moved inboard, and the Valiant got a mini-tub job.Even with six forward gears, big-blocks don't get great mpg. Jon's solution is a 32-gallon fuel cell designed for a Jeep Cherokee that fits between the framerails perfectly. The trick battery box is straight from the street rod world.

May 2, 2016
Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney has described his disparaging remarks about the 47 percent of Americans who don't pay federal income taxes as "not elegantly stated." Now he's calling them "just completely wrong."
Romney had contended that nearly half of Americans consider themselves "victims" and are dependent on government.
In an interview Thursday night with Fox News, Romney was asked what he would have said had the "47 percent" comments come up during his debate the night before with President Barack Obama.
Romney responded that sometimes in campaigning something doesn't come out right and that, quote, "In this case, I said something that's just completely wrong."
The "47 percent" comments came to light in mid-September after the release of a secretly recorded video from a May fundraiser.

Ruth reminds me of Audrey Hepburn; she always looks effortlessly elegant, perhaps because she learned early on to make a little effort every day. And I love her smile. Like AH, she is inspiring.

Wonderful clip, I am glad you shared. I loved seeing you in action photographing those lovely ladies. One-hundred years old, wow! I really appreciated what you said about the brands using older models to show off their goods, I would love to see more of that in action. Thanks again.

Many thanks!

- Angele Style said...
Ari, This is a wonderful video. Your perspective on older women and style is so refreshing. We need to celebrate the look of the older women and stop making it seem like if you get wrinkles go hide under a rock. You are a pioneer in this field and I applaud you. Thank you for opening eyes to see beauty is far more than skin deep.
- April 17, 2012 at 8:26 PM
- Julie said...
I love your blog and have been following it for a few years now. I love to see the older ladies wear what they like and not feel as if they have to dress a certain way because of their age. Look at Ruth--isn't she beautiful? And imagine what it must be like to be 100! She's great. And you're pretty cute yourself. : k ;-)

The state has made its choice on which path to build a Highway 70 bypass in Havelock.
The Department of Transportation says their "preferred alternative" for a Highway 70 bypass around Havelock is known as corridor 3. The ten-mile bypass runs on the southwest side of Havelock and U.S. 70, starting north of the Havelock city limits and past the Carteret County line.
Construction could start as early as 2014, though that is not finalized yet.

COAL COUNTY, OK -- The preliminary conference hearing for a former Coal County Youth Pastor, accused of raping a minor, has been re-set for next month.
28-year-old Dustin Ray Werneburg was arrested in November, at Blanchard Middle School, where police say he was working as a teacher's aid.
Werneburg is charged with three counts of second degree rape, three counts of forcible sodomy, a charge of lewd or indecent proposals to a child, and lewd molestation.
Investigators say all these crimes were committed against a girl under the age of 16.

And, here's my first rough sketch of map #1. It's just the basic layout so far. There's a dearth of jungle-like vegetation and I'll sketch that in shortly. The bridge needs some work too. I think it'll be more slender in the middle...more graceful. Picture, I think, the ruins in Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion if you know it. If not, then the elven stuff in the Peter Jackson LotR movies will stand in. You know, typical fantasy fare. I'll try to make it pop, though.
Edit: Yeah. Those "logs" across the top are my poor attempt to sketch some sort of arches. I think a bit of architectural design is in order before I work on the sketch anymore. See if I can whip something up and post a sketch.

Geology and Geomorphology
The Sac River basin is located within the portion of the interior highlands province denoted as the Ozark plateau. It is further divided between the Springfield and Salem plateaus (MDNR 1986). The basin overlays Ordovician dolomite in the northeastern half of the basin and Mississippian limestone, shale, and sandstone in the southwestern half of the basin (MDNR 1986). The Sac River basin is divided between the Osage Plains and the Ozarks natural divisions (See Figure Ge01). The western edge of the basin is part of the Osage Plains natural division. The rest of the basin is located primarily in the Springfield Plateau with a small section in the Upper Ozarks area (Thom and Wilson 1980).
Geology and Soils
The uplands in the Sac River basin are mantled with a thin layer of loess ranging from less than two feet thick in the headwaters areas to about four feet in thickness in the lower portions of the basin. The headwaters originate on Mississippian aged limestones and dissect progressively younger strata going downstream. Ordovician dolomites and thin layers of shale are also incised progressing downstream. The lower Sac River ends up incising Pennsylvanian aged shale in the area of its confluence with the Osage River/Truman Reservoir. Figure Ge02 shows the geology of the Sac River basin.
Karst areas are found in the Sons Creek sub-basin, along the Sac River upstream of Stockton Reservoir, and throughout the portion of the basin found in Greene County (MDNR 1986). Caves, sinkholes, springs, and other natural features related to Karst terrain are most numerous in the southeastern section of the basin and become progressively less numerous to the northwest (MDNR 1986). Figure Ge03 shows the location of named springs.
Coal deposits underlay the far northwestern portion of the basin (MDNR 1986).
- The Sac River basin drains a diverse landscape through a variety of tributaries. The watershed soils will be broken down based on the nine major tributary systems. Soil associations and descriptions follow Allgood and Persinger (1979) as Cedar, Dade, and Polk counties, which comprise the majority of the watershed, do not have completed soil surveys available.
- Turnback Creek watershed originates in Bolivar-Hector upland association soils. It then flows through Peridge-Wilderness-Goss-Pembroke and Nixa-Clarksville soil associations. The lower reaches flow through the Hartville-Ashton-Cedargap-Nolin bottomland soil association.
- Limestone Creek watershed originates in Parsons-Creldon upland soil association. It then flows through Gerald-Creldon-Hoberg-Keeno and Viraton-Wilderness association soils to its confluence with Turnback Creek.
- Sons Creek watershed originates in the Parsons-Creldon upland soil association and flows through Gerald-Creldon-Hoberg-Keeno association soils until it is inundated by Stockton Reservoir.
- The Little Sac watershed originates in Eldon-Pembroke, Peridge-Wilderness-Goss-Pembroke, and Needleye-Viraton-Wilderness soil associations. It then flows through Peridge-Wilderness-Goss-Pembroke soils. The lower reach flows through Hartville-Ashton-Cedargap-Nolin bottomland soils until it is innundated by Stockton Reservoir. Two impoundments near the headwaters of the Little Sac watershed (Fellows Lake and McDaniel Lake) cause a rapid descent to Hartville-Ashton-Cedargap-Nolin bottomland soils.
- Bear Creek originates in Eldon-Pembroke and Peridge-Wilderness-Goss-Pembroke soil associations. Most of the mid-section flows through Peridge-Wilderness-Goss-Pembroke association soils but the uplands near the mouth become Bolivar-Hector association soils. The bottomland soil association is once again Hartville-Ashton-Cedargap-Nolin for a short distance before Bear Creek flows into the Sac River.
- Brush Creek originates and flows through Gerald-Creldon-Hoberg-Keeno association soils. Bottomland soils are of the Hartville-Ashton-Cedargap-Nolin association.
- Turkey Creek headwaters originate in Bolivar-Hector association soils and the stream flows through Peridge-Wilderness-Goss-Pembroke soils to its confluence with the Sac River.
- Coon Creek headwaters originate in Viraton-Wilderness soils, and the stream flows through Hartville-Ashton-Cedargap-Nolin bottomland soils to the stream's confluence with the Sac River.
- The Cedar Creek - Horse Creek - Alder Creek watershed originates in Parsons-Barden and Liberal-Barco-Collinsville soil associations. They then flow through Bolivar-Hector, Hepler-Radley-Verdigris-Osage, and Gerald-Creldon-Hoberg-Keeno association soils. Bottomland soils are of the Hartville-Ashton-Cedargap-Nolin association to the watershed's confluence with the Sac River.
- The Sac River originates in Viraton-Wilderness and Eldon-Pembroke Upland soils associations. It then flows through Gerald-Creldon-Hoberg-Keeno and Peridge-Wilderness-Goss-Pembroke soil associations. The middle section of the river is inundated by Stockton Reservoir. Uplands near the lower portions of the Sac River are Bolivar-Hector association soils, grading to Gerald-Creldon-Hoberg-Keeno and Peridge-Wilderness-Goss-Pembroke soil associations, with bottomland soils of the Hartville-Ashton-Cedargap-Nolin association. The variety of soil associations found in the Sac River basin is because it is in the transition area between natural divisions. It exhibits characteristics found in the Osage Plains, Ozarks, and Ozark Border natural divisions.
Watershed Area
The Sac River basin encompasses 1,981 square miles in southwest Missouri. The Sac River basin headwaters begin in, and west of the Springfield metropolitan complex and flow northward to their terminus in Truman Reservoir. Stockton Reservoir is a 24,900-acre reservoir in the heart of the basin that inundates large sections of the Sac and Little Sac rivers.
Channel Gradient
The Sac River originates in northwestern Christian County and flows northward until it terminates as a sixth order tributary of the West Osage River in Truman Reservoir. Gradients in the Sac River basin are generally 5 to 10 feet/mile (Barnett et al 1985). Gradients in headwater reaches of the Sac River basin can exceed 40 feet/mile. Elevation ranges from 1,250 feet above mean sea level (msl) near the headwaters to 690 feet msl at the mouth (Barnett et al 1985). Gradient information for streams and rivers third order and larger in the Sac River basin are available from the Missouri Department of Conservation's Southwest Regional Office in Springfield, Missouri.

The dryness and cold of winter can be hard on hair and skin, but it can be one of the best times to try out new styles, colors and makeup palettes.
Glamour Magazine recommends looking to certain celebrities for tricks on how to keep up with this winter's trends. Taylor Swift's recent switch to a perfectly straight blowout with bangs might encourage you to switch up your hair care regime for a day - go straight if you usually rock curls, or let out your hair's natural texture if you usually use a flat iron. In addition, don't be sad that your summer highlights are growing out - ombré, a type of dip-dye look, is in this season.
Winter makeup can seem blah, but without the issue of humidity, you can do more outside your usual makeup palette. Try Blake Lively's trick of adding mascara to your lower lashes for added drama, or Lauren Conrad's adventurous lip color options. The plum lipstick she recently donned was seasonal and not too "goth" looking thanks to her golden pink-peach blush.

(Written by Maria L Hughes) According to author David Salisbury, young children often love books with simple visual styles. Simple expressions allow children to project their emotions, personalities, and imaginations onto the characters of the story. Because of this, books with simple illustrations and few words are often the most popular among children. This article is a review of five well-loved, beautifully illustrated, and strikingly simple children's books.
P.D. Eastman's Are You My Mother is great example of a wildly popular children's book with simple illustrations and a charming message. Illustrated with sparse watercolors, the story begins with the hatching of a baby bird. Right before the little bird is to hatch, his mother decides to leave and bring him food. Unfortunately, he hatches before she is back, tumbles out of the nest, and leaves in search of her. What ensues is a humorous journey on which the little bird asks various inappropriate animals and objects, "Are you my mother?"
The simple and repetitive sentences are perfect for children of preschool age, as is the familiar message of separation from parents. Children often feel bewildered and lost when their parents are away, and identify well with the baby bird as he becomes more and more anxious throughout the story, until he is happily reunited with his mother.

The State of New York shall have jurisdiction over offenses committed by or against Indians on Indian reservations within the State of New York to the same extent as the courts of the State have jurisdiction over offenses committed elsewhere within the State as defined by the laws of the State: Provided, That nothing contained in this section shall be construed to deprive any Indian tribe, band, or community, or members thereof, [1] hunting and fishing rights as guaranteed them by agreement, treaty, or custom, nor require them to obtain State fish and game licenses for the exercise of such rights.
[1] So in original. Probably should be followed by "of".

Born: 12/08/1953
Birth Place: Athens, Georgia, USA
Kimila Ann Basinger was born Dec. 8, 1953, and raised in Athens, GA. Painfully shy from the outset, the Southern belle reportedly fainted whenever she had to speak in front of the class. That fear, however, was offset by a genetic predisposition towards performing, as she was the daughter of a big band musician father and a mother who had been a silver screen swimmer alongside movie star, Esther Williams, in those classic MGM Technicolor spectacles. Young Basinger studied dance to overcome her shyness, and by the time she was a teenager, she was entering local beauty pageants, which eventually led to a slot in the National Junior Miss Pageant and an offer to model with the acclaimed Ford Age...

Fight crime and save the day with superhero accessories to enhance your costume. From Captain America's shield to Batman's utility belt to Wonder Woman's bullet-stopping arm bands, there's an accessory to go with any superhero costume. Many superheroes rely on gadgets and gizmos. Batman has a tool belt with grappling hooks, batarangs, and all kinds of items he uses when out saving Gotham City. Other superheros have items that are the source of their power, like the Green Lantern and his ring. Others, like Thor and his hammer or Captain America and his shield, have a piece of equipment that is iconic to their character. We carry many of these accessories so that you can create an authentic costume.
Boys Avenger Captain America Gloves
Avengers 2 Hulk Gloves For Men
Child Supergirl Molded Pink Eyemask
Hulk Green Avengers 2 Makeup Kit
Adult Spider-Man Plastic Eyewear
Canvas Avengers 2 Trick Or Treat Bag
Pink Super Hero Cape Set Costume for Girls
Avengers 2 Thor Goggles For Men
Sidekick Utility Belt - Yellow
Red, White and Blue Boot Adult
Captain America Avengers 2 Goggles
The Dark Knight Batman Grappling Hook TM
Many superhero costumes don't come with gloves, especially the budget versions. You can get gloves separately as an upgrade to your outfit. There are gloves for everyone from Spider-Man to Bumblebee from the Transformers. These gloves are designed to perfectly match the associated costume, making it complete. In addition to gloves you can also get Spider-Man wrist web shooters, giant padded Hulk hands, or Catwoman claws. Boot covers are a great way to add superhero foot gear without buying an actual pair of shoes or boots. They fit over your own shoes, so your feet are still protected, but look like boots. Boot cuffs fit on boots you already own to turn them into superhero boots. And if you really want to go all out, get actual superhero style boots.

A federal mediator will be helping the negotiation process. Teachers have been on strike for nearly two weeks. Scheduling remains the major obstacle.
No new talks have been scheduled for striking Anchor Harvey workers. They've been walking the picket line for about a month. Union members say the company wants to cut wages by 20 percent, freeze pensions and cut insurance benefits.

Geology and Geomorphology
Physiographic Region
The Lamine River Basin lies in two physiographic regions (Figure Ge01). Muddy Creek and Heath's Creek enter from the Osage Plains to the West while Richland Creek, Flat Creek and the mainstem Lamine River lie mainly in the Salem Plateau (MDNR 1986).
The Lamine River Basin is unglaciated and overlain by four to eight feet of derived soils (Figure Ge02). The soil overlies dolomite in the upper part of the basin and limestone in the lower part of the basin. Little water moves into the subsurface of the basin, probably due to a clayey residuum that overlies the limestone or dolomite bedrock and the presence of shale. Baseflow is not well sustained during dry periods because most water movement in the basin is through the surface stream network and few notable springs exist (MDNR 1984).
Soil Types
The Lamine River Basin lies primarily in the Cherokee Prairies soil region (MDNR 1986). Highly erodible loess soils are well drained in most areas but poorly drained in other areas. Sheet and rill erosion from tilled land (9-13 tons/acre) is relatively high considering an acceptable level of 2-5 tons/acre (Anderson 1980). Erosion from permanent pasture is much lower (2.5-5.0 tons/acre) as expected. Gully erosion is considered severe (200 - 500 tons/acre) in the region of the subbasin based on a statewide comparison (Anderson 1980).
Watershed Characteristics
The Lamine River above its confluence with Blackwater River is a sixth order stream with an area of 1080 square miles (USDA/SCS 1981; Table 1). One other sixth order stream, Flat Creek, flows northeastward forming the Lamine River at its confluence with Richland Creek. Flat Creek has the largest watershed (400 square miles) in the Lamine River Basin. Three fifth order streams, Muddy Creek, Heaths Creek, and Richland Creek, and several fourth order streams are present in the Lamine River Basin (Table 1).
Stream ordering is a classification technique that is an indication of the relative size of a stream. This is useful but with it alone, we are not able to determine how the subject stream relates to the remainder of the stream system. For example, there are thirty-three third order streams in the Lamine River Basin but their watershed sizes vary greatly. Some are comprised of as few as four 1st order streams but watersheds of 10 - 20 1st order streams are common. One is comprised of forty 1st order streams. Likewise, the order designation does not indicate where the subject stream lies relative to the entire basin. This information is important because, within any given basin, downstream locations typically have greater species diversity and habitat complexity (Sheldon 1968 and Horwitz 1978). Thus a tributary of the lower Lamine River should be expected to have a different species assemblage than a tributary of the same order in the upper reaches of the watershed. Knowing the relative location of a stream within the basin, a concept referred to as "spatial scale", is valuable information for stream fisheries management.
Channel Gradient
Gradient information was obtained from MDC Research Section gradient computer file and/or calculated from USGS 7.5' topographic maps. Gradient plots of fourth order and larger streams were prepared (Appendix 1). Major streams (fifth order and larger) in the Lamine River Basin range in average gradient from 1.5 ft/mi (mainstem Lamine River) to 19.1 ft/mi (Little Richland Creek). Streams entering from the western portion of the watershed, including Heath's Creek, Muddy Creek and Flat Creek, have lower gradients than streams farther to the east (Richland Creek and Haw Creek). This shift in gradient reflects the transition from Prairie to Ozark border streams within the Lamine River Basin.

Cotton growers in the country will soon benefit from a drought insurance scheme after completion of an experiment being conducted in Bunda district by an insurance company.
This was revealed yesterday by Simiyu Regional Commissioner Paschal Mabiti in an interview with journalists on the sidelines of a cotton stakeholders meeting which commenced on Wednesday in Dar es Salaam.
The RC said that the insurance company, Microensure, has been commissioned by Tanzania Cotton Board through Tanzania Gatsby Trust to conduct the experiment in Bunda district so system could be applied across the country.
"The company has been working for one and a half years and we hope that farmers may start benefiting from the system in the coming harvest season which begins in July," Mabiti said.
He said through the system cotton growers will be insured in case there is drought so that they can pay for the inputs they get from ginners on credit.
Mabiti said that once the system was put in place it will help farmers as well as ginners because they will be paid for the inputs. He however said that the insurance company must take into consideration other factors like floods adding that sometime drought may not occur but farmers can be affected by floods when their crops are washed away.
Commenting on cotton production in his newly established region, Mabiti said that the region produces 60 per cent of the cotton produced in the country.
He said last year the region produced 99,770 tonnes of cotton and the improved yields were highly contributed to by contract farming.
"In the past, cotton production in the area was ranging between 45 and 50 per cent but following the implementation of CF two years ago the production has increased tremendously," Mabiti said.
He said his region was expecting to produce 116, 304 tonnes of cotton in the coming season which began in July.
Mabiti said farmers have commended the government for introducing CF because it has helped to improve yields due to close supervision of extension officers and availability of inputs.
For his part, Musoma District Commissioner Geofrey Ngatuni said that CF started as pilot in Musoma in 2008 and it was implemented through the establishment of farmers' business groups.
"We started with 28 groups but to date there are 400 groups …farmers have accepted the CF because it facilitate inputs," Ngatuni said.

Greensboro, NC -- Chief Tim Bellamy is retiring from the Greensboro Police Department on July 31. He has served on the force for 26 years.
Bellamy sent a letter to city staffers early Tuesday morning setting the end of July date. He has served as chief of police since March 2007 when David Wray resigned his position.
In November, Bellamy told WFMY News 2 that he planned to retire. He had not set an exact date at that point.
That announcement came days after the election of Bill Knight as Greensboro's mayor. Bellamy said at the time his decision wasn't political, it's "just the right time for him."

What does the phrase "before too long" mean?
Excerpt from where I read this phrase:
The response to the SDK has been quite good and I expect to start hearing about some great apps and success stories before too long.
What does the phrase "before too long" mean?
Excerpt from where I read this phrase:
It is an oblique way of saying soon.
In addition to what Jay said, sentences like this are usually a kind of emphasis. "before too long" figuratively means the exact opposite of "a long time long in the future". This double negative (which is a form of understatement) is called litotes (thanks to RegDwight for pointing this out).
It's the same as saying "not bad" when you actually mean "quite good indeed".
Interestingly, the same exists in most other languages, and has always exists. For example, in Latin there's the idiom "non ignoro". "ignoro" means "I don't know", and "non" is just the negation. Thus, "non ignoro", though literally translated as "I don't not know", in reality means "I know exactly" (with emphasis).
It means before it takes too long time. In your example it may mean in 1-2 years.

May 2, 2016
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) -- North Carolina lawmakers are set to approve a measure barring the state from expanding Medicaid under the federal health care overhaul.
The state House and Senate are expected to vote Tuesday for the last time on a bill that makes clear North Carolina neither wants to expand its Medicaid program or run an online health insurance marketplace. States have the option of doing both through the Affordable Care Act, but Republicans who control the North Carolina legislature say they can't trust Washington to pay for the bulk of the Medicaid expansion in future years.
Republican Gov. Pat McCrory also says he doesn't support the expansion, which would provide government health insurance to about 500,000 low-income citizens. He is expected to sign the GOP-backed bill when it reaches his desk.

MOBILE, Ala. (AP) -- Authorities say three people were crushed to death by steel beams inside a train car. A fourth person was taken to a hospital with injuries.
Mobile Fire Rescue employee Steve Huffman says the three people were killed when a load in a rail car shifted shortly before 6 a.m. Tuesday at the CSX rail yard in Mobile.
Huffman tells WKRG-TV that authorities believe the people were transients who were sleeping in the railcar at the time. He said they were crushed when the load of beams shifted. The injured person was taken to University of South Alabama Medical Center.
WALA-TV reports that crews were moving the railcar when the accident happened. No CSX employees were hurt.
Mobile police and Port Authority police are investigating the deaths.
