Rio Negro-Rio San Sun mangroves
Northern Atlantic coast, Costa Rica Photograph by Pam Cubberly
Rio Negro-Rio San Sun mangroves consist of a disjunctive coastal ecoregion in parts of Costa Rica, extending to the north slightly into Nicaragua and south marginally into Panama. Mangroves are sparse in this ecoregion, and are chiefly found in estuarine lagoons and small patches at river mouths growing in association with certain freshwater palm species such as the Yolillo Palm (Raphia taedigera), which taxon has some saline soil tolerance, and is deemed a basic element of the mangrove forest here. These mangrove communities are also part of a mosaic of several habitats that include mixed rainforest, wooded swamps, coastal wetlands, estuarine lagoons, sand backshores and beaches, sea-grasses, and coral reefs.
This coastal area generally consists of low alluvial floodplain (sea level to twenty metres above sea level), intermixed within a network of black-water canals and creeks. In between are intertidal zones and backshores that are important nesting areas for endangered sea turtle species, that feed in the seagrass beds and visit mangrove habitats. This mangrove ecoregion is highly threatened by the human population explosion of the region and associated pressures on coastal development.
Location and general depiction
This ecoregion is situated along the ocean coastline just penetrating Nicaragua then extending southward to the border of Costa Rica and Panama. The paucity of mangroves here is a result of the robust influx of freshwater to the coastline ocean zone of this ecoregion. Among the highest rates of rainfall in the world, this ecoregion receives over six metres (m) a year at the Nicaragua/ Costa Rica national border. Peak rainfall occurs in the warmest months, usually between May and September. A relatively dry season occurs from January to April, which months coincides with stronger tradewinds. Tides are semi-diurnal and have a range of less than one half metre. The sparseness of mangrove patches explains why little information is available for Atlantic coast mangroves in this ecoregion, and few publications have emerged that directly reference mangroves in this region.
The area is disturbed at least once in a century by hurricanes, which may result in a die-off of all mangroves, as occurred in the year 1988 as an outcome of Hurricane Joan, although the mangroves continue to regenerate. This weather induced periodicity keeps the mangroves relatively young and small in stature, and explains why the mangrove forests in this ecoregion tend to be found in even-age stands
Biodiversity features
The area of Costa Rica near the Nicaraguan border is considered to be the most species-rich in Costa Rica. Although not restricted to mangroves, incomplete census studies of wildlife conducted at a local biological station report 120 species of mammals, over 300 avian species and more than 100 species of reptiles and amphibians have been documented.
Of the sixteen species of endangered mammals known in Costa Rica, thirteen were found in this survey. Six of the seven nationally endangered reptiles occur in the ecoregion. Threatened species found in the region such as the American Crocodile (Crocodylus acutus), Baird's Tapir (Tapirus bairdii), Green Sea Turtles (Chelonia mydas), Dermochelys coriacea, and the Manatee (Trichecus manatus).
Reptiles include the Basilisk Lizard (Basiliscus basiliscus), Caiman (Caiman crocodilus), Green Sea Turtle (Chelonia mydas), Leatherback Turtle (Dermochelys coriacea) and Green Iguana (Iguana iguana). The beaches along the coast within this ecoregion near Tortuguero are some of the most important for nesting green turtles. The offshore seagrass beds, which are among the most extensive in the world, are a source of food and refuge for the endangered Green Sea Turtle (Chelonia mydas).
Several species of frogs of the family Dendrobatidae are found in this mangrove ecoregion as well other anuran species and some endemic salamander taxa.
Mangroves play an important role in trapping sediments from land that are detrimental to the development of both coral reefs and sea grasses that are associated with them. Mangrove species including Rhizopora mangle, Avicennia germinans, Laguncularia racemosa, Conocarpus erecta and R. harrisonii grow alone the salinity gradient in appropriate areas. Uncommon occurrences of Pelliciera rhizophorae and other plant species associated with mangroves include Leather ferns Acrostichum spp., which also invade cut-over mangrove stands and provide some protection against erosion. In this particular ecoregion, the mangroves are associated with the indicator species, freshwater palm, Raphia taedigera. Other mangrove associated species are Guiana-chestnut ( Pachira aquatica) and Dragonsblood Tree (Pterocarpus officinalis).
Mammal species found in this highly diverse ecoregion include: Lowland Paca (Agouti paca), primates such as Mantled Howler Monkey (Alouatta palliata), Geoffrey's Spider Monkey (Ateles geoffroyi), White-faced Capuchin (Cebus capucinus), Brown-throated Sloth (Bradypus variegatus), Silky Anteater (Cyclopes didactylus) and Nine-banded Armadillo (Dasypus novemcintus). Also found in this ecoregion are carnivores such as Ocelot (Leopardus pardalis), Central American Otter (Lutra annectens), Jaguar (Panthera onca), Northern Racooon (Procyoon lotor), and Crab-eating Racoon (P. cancrivorus).
The ecoregion is of great importance as a stopover for migratory birds and is a breeding area for a number of fish that are important to the subsistence economy of the ecoregion. Birds that visit mangroves during migration include Spotted Sandpiper (Actitis macularia), Red-lored Amazon (Amazona autumnalis), Snowy Cotinga (Carpodectes nitidus), Wilson's Plover (Charadrius wilsonia), Green Kingfisher (Chloroceryle americana), Lesser Nighthawk (Chordeiles acutipennis), Common Nighthawk (Chordeiles minor), Keel-billed Motmot (Electron carintum), and Osprey (Pandion haliaetus) among numerous other avian taxa.
Ecological status
There also appears to be an increased incidence of tropical storms and hurricanes. According to data for the Corn Islands which are immediately outside the boundaries of this ecoregion, suggest that tropical storms occur on an average of once a year and that hurricanes are expected once every fifty years. However, in 1996, three tropical storms and one hurricane occurred, and three hurricanes have struck the Corn Islands in the past eight years. Although it is not possible to unequivocally link these particular extreme events with climate change, an increase in their frequency is consistent with certain scenarios of climate change, in that tropical storms have a tendency to occur over warmer ocean waters.
The protected areas in this region, include the Indio Maíz biological reserve in Nicaragua and the Tortuguero National Park and the Humedal Caribe Noreste in Costa Rica, are part of a network of Caribbean sites linked by a Meso-American Biological Corridor intended to insure continuity of biogeographical links between North and South America. The Humedal Caribe Noreste is also considered a wetland of international importance under the RAMSAR convention.
Ecological threat profile
Deforestation in the upper watershed has resulted in drainage and sedimentation problems. Also associated with these problems are the acceptable management practices used on banana plantations. The redirection of surface water flow as a result of dam construction is changing the mangrove habitat by either adding or removing the natural amount of freshwater inflow to the ecoregion. A list of other threats includes land use changes as a result of unplanned settlements, illegal hunting, development of an international port, plans for another canal between the Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean, gold mining on the Nicaraguan side of the border, sewage contamination from towns, runoff of agricultural chemicals, and erosion. For lack of a unified management plan, these threats appear to vary depending on the side of the border and are more acute in Costa Rica.
Justification of ecoregion delineation
Classification and linework for all mangrove ecoregions in Latin America and the Caribbean follow the results of the 1996 WWF mangrove ecoregion workshop and subsequent reportage.

Pool is a sport in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and Grand Theft Auto IV. Two players can play pool and either player wins. The main goal is to get all the colored cues within the designated colors into the hole, then get the 8-Ball to win.
GTA San Andreas
Starting the game
In GTA San Andreas, CJ can challenge any person at a bar who is holding a pool cue to a game of pool. A wager can be placed, with maximum wager being $1000. CJ then begins to play pool with him.
If CJ wins the game, he wins whatever he'd wagered at the beginning of the game. If he loses or quits, he loses the money he wagered. In any instance, CJ gets a pool cue, which replaces whatever melee weapon he'd had.
It is possible to retrieve the wagered money by killing the challenger.
The player can compete against another player using a second controller, but no money can be wagered.
How to play
CJ breaks. Whoever sinks a ball first gets that pattern, stripes or solids, and the other player gets the opposite.
The turn is lost on the following occasions:
- A player pockets the wrong type of ball.
- A player scratches (pockets the white cue ball).
- A player misses all of the balls.
- A player hits a ball, but it doesn't hit the rail.
- A player hits the wrong type of ball first.
If a player scratches, the other player can put the cue ball anywhere on the table before shooting.
In the beta version of GTA San Andreas the pool tables was originally going to be painted green, not blue, and there was going to be a pool table in Madd Dogg's mansion.
Winning / losing
The game is won under the following conditions:
- The player pockets all of their striped/colored balls, then pockets the 8-Ball, before their opponent.
- The opponent accidentally pockets the 8-Ball before they have pocketed all of their striped/coloured balls.
The game is lost under the following conditions:
- The opponent pockets all of their striped/colored balls, then pockets the 8-Ball, before the player.
- The player accidentally pockets the 8-Ball before they have pocketed all of their striped/coloured balls.
- The player successfully pockets the 8-Ball after pocketing all of their striped/colored balls, but also pockets the white cue ball in the same shot.
- Go to a place where you can play pool. If you shoot the pool player in the head and kill him, he will still be active like if he wasn't dead (he will lift his hands). Although, he dies 2 or 3 seconds later.
- Sometimes, if you shoot any kind of ball at the table it will roll so fast that if you go near it is may damage or kill you
- Lil' Probe'Inn in Bone County
- Misty's in Garcia, San Fierro
- Casino Floor in Las Venturas
- Ten Green Bottles in Grove Street in Ganton, Los Santos
- The Craw Bar in Old Venturas Strip, Las Venturas.
Pool can be played against friends, or against a competitor when not being accompanied by a friend. The player may not wager money.
The rules are the same as in GTA San Andreas. However, there are a few new items:
- If the ball jumps off the table, the offending player loses a turn.
- If the 8-ball jumps off the table, the game is lost.
- If you pocket a ball or balls on the break, you can continue with your choice of stripes or solids, regardless of the ball type you pocketed. The same is true if the first shot when you pot any balls include both types of ball.
- If you pocket the 8-ball on the break (the first shot of the game), you win.
There is a glitch when playing the game on the Xbox 360. If you miss a shot, press LB before the opponent's turn. Then press A to get back into the game (pressing LB again will forfeit the game). The opponent will hit either your or their ball and will foul for hitting the wrong color ball, even if it's theirs. It'll then be your turn, and you're allowed to position the cue ball.
As in GTA San Andreas, the pool cue is obtainable as a weapon in The Lost and Damned after completing a round of pool.
- In the Homebrew Cafe.
- In Playboy X's Penthouse.
- At the Lost MC Clubhouse, in the episodes only.

It seems our land of apparent peace and tranquility is soon earning itself another epithet or label. The new tag may as well be the "land of surprises," as these seem to crop up by the hour.
Among the latest ones is this incident which took place about ten days ago where a district commissioner in Bukoba banned a scheduled indoor meeting convened to brainstorm on the hot topic of the eagerly awaited new constitution of the United Republic of Tanzania.
The newspaper which published the story that DC Angela Mabula had issued a written order to cancel the Foundation for Civil Society (FCS) sponsored event at the last minute.
This happens to be credible, as it is reputed for marshalling all the necessary facts before releasing its stories for public consumption. In any case, no claim of being misquoted has been heard from any quarters since the disturbing story was published.
Here are a few other facts about the cancelled meeting whose focus, as hinted earlier, was on the new constitution, which may help the reader to make his or her judgment on whether it was fair or unfair to cancel the event.
Well, invited participants were from non-governmental organizations, religious and educational institutions as well as registered political parties. Papers were expected to be presented on eye-opening themes which included highlights on Tanzania's constitutional history, circumstances behind the demand for a new constitution, and the ongoing process of achieving the desired national goal.
What reason or reasons did the DC give to justify banning this meeting which can't be put in the category of public gatherings which government bureaucrats and coercive instruments of the state routinely claim are a threat to peace and order in the country?
Well, we are told the major justification given in the letter to the organizers of the event is that since the procedures of involving members of the public in giving their views on the new constitution are still being worked out at national level, authorities at district level are not in position to allow any meetings on the constitution until they get the necessary guidelines "from above."
Most observers, just like the organizers of the flopped, or rather sabotaged function, are both baffled and unable to comprehend what happened and why. One of the questions arising in the minds of those deeply worried by the implications of this incident is – Who said people can not, or should not meet and brainstorm on the new constitution simply because some bureaucratic and legal procedures on how to implement the Constitutional Review Act, 2011 are yet to be concluded?
Another related question is - Does the Constitutional Review Act, 2011 and its amendments mention anywhere in any of its 38 Articles that it is a sin for any group to meet indoors, or even outdoors, and exchange ideas about this subject before the Constitutional Review Commission is in place and blows a whistle for the exercise to take off?
Some of us who are monitoring the new constitution writing process closely have seen no evidence suggesting that the government does not allow the citizens of this country to exercise their freedom of expression and right to information simply because constitutional matters are considered sensitive.
But one cannot rule out the possibility that the honourable DC in Bukoba, who banned the meeting referred to here, may have not even seen a copy of the relevant new law, although a government officer of his rank, equivalent to the colonial district governor, is expected to be in possession of such a document and conversant with its contents, short of which one is bound to make embarrassing decisions under the shallow pretext of "waiting for instructions from above."
Let it be emphasized that for a DC who is self confident and is not influenced by politically inclined partisan tendencies, his or her decisions on such matters should be based on nothing but ethical upholding of laws and regulations.
The Bukoba incident seems to validate worries expressed by some MPs while debating the amendments in the Constitutional Review Act, 2011 that allowing district commissioners to play a leading role when the Constitutional Review Commission begins the exercise of collecting public views on the new constitution, would cause problems as most of them are victims of political partisanship, resulting from their backgrounds and how they got appointed to these positions. In any case, hurdles of this kind are unavoidable in the process of social change. Crusaders of the new constitution must be ready to face and jump them, at any cost.

Sinking of the Titanic – Burials and Memorials
The White Star Line commissioned the cable ship CS Mackay-Bennett from Halifax, Nova Scotia to fish the dead bodies of Titanic victims still afloat in the water. Three other ships helped the search, including Minia, Montmagny, and Algerine. Each ship contained embalming supplies, undertakers, and clergy members to assist in retrieval and handling of the dead. 333 victims were recovered, of which 328 were retrieved by Canadian ships, and the other five by North Atlantic steamships. Bodies of the deceased were given numbers, aside from the six buried at sea by Carpathia. In may, over 200 miles away from where the Titanic had sunk, the Oceanic discovered three bodies that were determined to be from Collapsible A lifeboat which became overcame with passengers attempting to board as the Titanic sunk. Three people died while on this lifeboat, and were left by Fifth Officer Harold Lowe when the other survivors aboard were rescued.
The mass amount of casualties in the water caused the CS Mackay-Bennett to run out of embalming supplies in very little time. Being that the health regulations only allowed for embalmed bodies to be brought back to port, Captain Larnder of the Mackay-Bennett and the undertakers made the decision to preserve only bodies of First Class passengers. This decision was reached in order to visually identify wealthy men in case financial disputes over large estates occurred. This resulted in the third class passengers and crew being buried at sea.
The recovered bodies were preserved and taken to Halifax, where coroner John Henry Barnstead developed a detailed system to identify bodies and protect any personal possessions found. The relatives from the deceases traveled from all across America to claim identified bodies, and a temporary morgue was established in a curling rink where undertakers were called from Eastern Canada to assist in. Some of the recovered bodies were shipped to be buried in their hometowns, while the unidentified were buried with designated numbers in order of which they were found. The majority of the bodies (150) were buried in three Halifax cemeteries, which were Fairview Lawn Cemetery, Mount Olivet, and Baron de Hirsch. Among the bodies recovered were floating wreckage from Titanic, that have since been preserved in the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic in Halifax.

UnBooks:All about pee
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
"Mmm... urine."
"Pee in a Goddamn bottle! Shove that bottle under your coat, and you'll be toasty warm all night."
"WAIT,WAIT,WAIT! That's not!....lemonade..."
Experts have disagreed on the controversial question which has hounded mankind for centuries: peepee or pee pee? One word or two? I'm guessing two, but can you ever really be sure?
Commonly used among hikers, George W. Bush, and Batman urine is easily accessed for self-consumption. Male mammals have the ability to aim this refreshing drink directly into their mouths. Females, you might need a cup.
The majority of the world's urine can be found diluted in sewage, sea-water, or in the neighborhood swimming pool.
Some individuals music industry, particularly fans of Marilyn Manson and KISS, enjoy a refreshing splash of urine in their face from time to time.
Not a single person on this great planet of ours has not tried urinating (pissing yellow pee out of your dick), making it the most popular choice of activities second only to sleeping, and eating. In France they are making urination a sport. Pissed off, pissed on, pissing for gold-plated plastic trophies--those French.
How to pee properly
NOTE: the following does not apply to pooping.
Drink several cups of tea. If you don't like tea, cups of someone else's pee can be substituted under proper supervision (see the section: "How to drink pee"). Five or six cups should do the trick, although one can of Mountain Dew has been proven to have the same effect. Straighten up your genitals and relax. Just let it loose. It should come out in a clear or yellow stream.
Some people gotta shit as well... you motha fuka
Chemical Components of Urinating
- Uric acid
- Intact Private Place (Ineffective for Tiger Woods)
- Vaseline
- Pabst Blue Ribbon
- Sunshine

How to pee in a toilet standing up, and down
Men: Up: Put seat up. Stand straight, aim and enjoy. Put seat down. Go "mmmm". Down: Take a seat if you've had a long day. Take your penis is tuck it safely between your legs so it doesn't touch the toilet. Make sure it's done in a way you don't piss on yourself.
Woman: Up: (Also known as the "sit and squat") If you are at an unsanitary bathroom, or feel like straining yourself more at a clean bathroom. Simply squat (which might be misleading by the title, squatting is like sitting and standing at the same time) making sure you can aim wear your pee will go, and that you aren't going to fall in the toilet or on the seat. Down: Sit, let it gush out. Go "ahhh".
A trinkle in the dark
A common difficulty experienced by urinators is getting pee into the toilet when it is dark. Experts recommend clipping a book light to your penis. Then, when you have to take a piss, just hit the button and turn it on. There you go, now you can see where your going and you won't get yelled at to clean up your mess. If you do make a mess the best way to remove pee from any surface is to rub the object on area with peanut butter, pour on some Coke, and rub thoroughly. Then use a cup to scoop up the soggy peanut butter and the pee stain will be gone! Shamwow! But just in case, you can always do a "favor" for who ever you live with and buy them a nice rug for the bathroom and pray it doesn't smell. *Sniffs* ahhhh... fresh! this is a guide how to pee: you just take out your long jhon (penis) and begins too pee
How to drink pee
Now that you'd learn how to pee, learn how to DRINK PEE
An excellent urine-based cocktail, known as the Excalibur, can be created with the following recipe:
3 oz. Dom Perignon, or other fine champagne
3 oz. single-malt scotch
2 oz. sherry
A dash of bitters
Handful of salt.
Combine all ingredients in a highball glass and consume. Then add crushed ice to the empty glass, wait one to two hours, and urinate into the glass. Consume.
Another popular way to drink urine is as follows:
Mix four cups of pee [best if yellow] with 8oz of vodka and stir gently. Add 2oz of spit, and 8grams of peanut butter. Then add three cups of toilet water. Drink up. I know it sounds gross, but try it.
Sometimes it is very helpful when drinking pee out of a glass to use a tube or a straw. This gives it that extra kick.
The Magic of Yellow
Urination, urine, peeing, pissing, and in some circles, "leaking" has a long-standing tradition of beauty, and most importantly, it is the source of all power in the universe. In 1492, when President Gerald R. Ford was first inaugurated, urine was his first beverage in the White House.
Urinating in public places is another way of greeting people, and is especially polite if you "shake" in their face. Urination can also be sexually enjoyable between people, peeing on other people can be seen as part of sex, while peeing on oneself may be considered "Golden Shower" man. Urine is also a common ingredient in "Lemon Snowcones", which is usually given to a drunk or "hammered person" who believes they are merely enjoying a lemon snowcone.
What Happens When Your Pee Turns Blue??
If your pee is blue, then WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE?! Get to the emergency room, man! Hurry up and RUN!!!
Recent studies have also indicated that drinking Nuka Cola Quantum can make your pee glow blue and drinking gratuitous amounts of POWERTHIRST, will do the trick.
Recycled Urine and Super Powers
Several doctors bragging honorary degrees from "Happy Harry's Honorary Degree Emporium" have recently determined that super human strength, speed, and smell can be gained by recycling urine. One can recycle urine either by drinking urine, freebasing urine, or applying urine crystals directly to the dick. Dr. Steve claimed to have all the powers described above as a result of drinking his own urine. However, Dr. Steve died during testing of his theory regarding recycled urine and flight.
Note to females
In much of this article, the word "penis" is used. This is due to biological conventions. If you substitute "vagina" in all instructions - get it out and hold onto it with both hands - the same effect will be achieved. I know they told you in grade school that you couldn't pee standing up, but that's just a lie to hold you back. You're a big girl now, and can do what you like.

Bridging Drug Discovery's Valley of Death...
From Our May 1 Issue: Immunoassays...
Will Nanopore Sequencing Make it Obsolete?
New Clinical Data Network Technologies Improve...
Qiagen today said it has received FDA approval to market its Therascreen EGFR test as a companion diagnostic to guide use of Boehringer Ingelheim's newly approved Gilotrif™ (afatinib) for the first-line treatment of metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in patients whose tumors show certain EGFR gene mutations.
The diagnostics firm said Therascreen EGFR helps clinicians identify EGFR mutation-positive patients eligible for treatment with afatinib, which is indicated for those who have EGFR exon 19 deletions and exon 21 L858R substitution mutations. According to Qiagen, each year around 120,000 metastatic NSCLC patients in the U.S. could benefit from testing for EGFR mutation.
"Today's approvals further illustrate how a greater understanding of the underlying molecular pathways of a disease can lead to the development of targeted treatments," Richard Pazdur, M.D., director of the Office of Hematology and Oncology Products in the FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, said in a statement. "Gilotrif is the second drug approved this year for patients with untreated metastatic NSCLC whose tumors have the EGFR exon 19 deletions or exon 21 L858R substitution mutations."
"The approval of companion diagnostic tests and drugs are important developments in oncology, as they help us bring safe and effective treatments to patients who need them," added FDA Office of In Vitro Diagnostics and Radiological Health director Alberto Gutierrez, Ph.D.
"We are very pleased to receive approval to market our Therascreen EGFR test in the United States, a successful outcome from our collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim," Qiagen CEO Peer Schatz said in a statement.

Enrolment into higher education in Tanzania is still quite low. In a country of over 40 million people, the gross enrolment ratio remains around 1%.
Whilst the expansion of private higher education enrolment has had a significant impact in boosting access, these universities are relatively small and as of 2005, almost 90% of students were in Public universities and other institutes of higher learning. The Private higher education sector is, however, continually expanding and its proportion of intake can only go up.
In 2006/07 total student enrollment in both private and public universities and university colleges and institutes was 49,967, with public universities enrolling a total of 39,218 students or 78.4% of the total students. Private universities, despite of the fact that they outnumber public universities, enrolled a total of 10, 749 (21.5%) of the total student population.
Despite the liberalization of the higher education sector, participation and admission rates and general gross enrollment ratio in higher education in Tanzania are still low compared to neighbouring and other SADC countries implying the low capacity of the higher education sector to enroll more students because of limited funding. However, most tertiary institutions are struggling to cope up with growing enrolment against the available infrastructure and services.
This article reviews the current financing strategies for higher education, in order to propose ways to deal away traditional ways of financing education and look into alternative ways to diversify financing strategies by venturing into new financing strategies.
Financing of public higher education in Tanzania in the context of cost sharing policy is (ideally) supposed to be a shared responsibility between different stakeholders and beneficiaries of higher education products.
The Government is not only financing public higher education institutions through subventions to cover recurrent and capital development budgets; but is also financing tuition-dependent private higher education institutions and students enrolled in privately sponsored programs in public universities through the HESLB and the Tanzania Education Authority leading to inequities in higher education financing.
Despite of the existence of a plethora of beneficiaries of higher education products, their contribution to higher education remains insignificant mainly limited to welfare costs.
The funds for higher education in developing countries come mainly from three different traditional sources:
(a) Government (central and local) subversion: reliance on government for resources has almost doubled. Lower and Higher education has been largely a state funded activity with about three-quarters of the total expenditure being borne by government. The relative shares of non-government sources such as fees and voluntary contributions have been declining. On the other side, the needs of the higher education system have been growing rapidly. It is being increasingly realized that public budgets cannot adequately fund higher education, particularly when sectors of mass education are starved of even bare needs.
As a consequence, several policy directions on new ways of diversifying resources, resulting from a variety of pressures and opportunities are continually emerging with several alternatives, including student fees, student loans, user fees and privatisation.
On the other side, higher education institutions have been depending on philanthropic support and development agencies.
Although in the Tanzanian context, it is almost impossible to propose a viable model or framework for financing higher education. This is because of intense and deliberate politicization of financing of higher education and because of the entrenched mindset of "free higher education" among the majority of Tanzanians, unfortunately including the educated.
Ishengoma in his 2006 PhD Thesis on 'Financing Higher Education in Tanzania' proposes the "market model" which seems to have been successful in Kenya's and Uganda's higher education sectors. This means that education institutions need to consider the fact that investment in education institutions is like any other economic investment and think beyond the box.
The market model for higher education financing is proposed in the context of two major trends that have characterized the changes in higher education sector in Tanzania since the 1990's. This is when the government liberalized the provision of higher education: these are some limited privatization of public higher education and the emergence of the private higher education sector.
The market model also advocated by other scholars such as Oketch and Lamptey stresses the injection of the market principles and market driven approaches into the financing of higher education to make it completely self-financing. While Oketch views marketing model of financing higher education in terms of financial diversification and partial privatization of public universities; Lamptey advocates for the adoption of the contemporary marketing concepts of product, price, place and promotion (the 4 P's) in higher education.
The market model for financing public higher education in Tanzania is justified when we consider higher education sector to be composed of market segments and therefore it can be marketed using an effective marketing mix through opening up dialogue with potential markets ready to finance higher education because they are beneficiaries and consumers of higher education products.
In the context of Tanzania, the market is also justified in the larger context of the market economy which has been adopted since late 1980's in wider context of improving the efficiency, accountability and quality. This proposed model is guided by three principles: shared costs, equity and human resource development.
Ishengoma further argues that while the market model of financing higher education has been criticized and branded as academic capitalism driving universities into entrepreneurial competition; the model if cautiously adapted can turn around the finances of government and donor dependent public higher education institutions. The model has worked at Makerere and Nairobi universities and there is no reason why it should not work in Tanzania's public higher education institutions.
There are a number of ways, strategies or approaches which can be explored to finance higher education. Some of these approaches have been used in other countries and were successful. This article presents some new improvements which can help in income generation away from the government grants/ subversions. The proposed improvements are:
(a) Start-up Income generating activities: most public and private institutions have ample and idle land which can be used to start up income generating activities. UDSM and the Mlimani City project is a good example though more could have been done to ensure optimal utilisation of their idle land;
(b) Strengthening research and consultancy activities: though most of the higher education institutions have research and consultancy bureaus or units, they are yet to be strong enough to attract highly financed research and consultancy works which could have earned these institutions additional income, while increasing their credibility;
(c) ©Formation of joint ventures- in non core area in same business with experienced and investors with capital;
(d) Explore opportunities in capital markets: institutions can purchase bank shares or invest in other profit making companies or business through purchase of shares, This can increase institutional income base;
(e) Joint ventures with industries and business enterprises: This can be done through establishing programs which can be funded by interested industries or business enterprises. Institutions could entice industries to fund research programs and other innovations; and findings from these researches can be used to improve innovations and productivity in industries and business enterprises.
I think it is only at UDSM where such ventures were established, which include Industrial Products Innovations (IPI) and BICO which had been conducting joint research and innovations in order to improve improving industrial productivity. There might be others for such purposes. However, they have not been very active due to various reasons including lack of adequate funding and neglect. Many institutions have not utilised this opportunity.
Whenever possible these industries could support the institutions to establish infrastructures. Business enterprises can also support higher education institutions through sponsoring students in areas of their interest and employ them after graduation. Currently, some few industries such Airtel and mining companies just to mention a few are sponsoring students to study courses related to their business, so they can employ them thereafter.
(f) Sale of publications: doing research and publishing academic materials including books, journals, newsletters and others, is compulsory for staff in higher education institutions. There is a code in higher education institutions for all academic staff which says: "publish or perish", which motivates staff to conduct research and write academic work for publication.
Currently, many courses in tertiary institutions lack text and reference books which are relevant to courses and Tanzanian context. Those few academic staff who managed to publish have been able to sell a number of copies beyond their expectations. The demand for more publications growing fast as enrolment and establishment of tertiary institutions is growing fast. Institutions can utilise this opportunity to support their staff to write, and institutions can support them to publish and share income after being sold;
(g) Utilise Alumni: former students at these institutions can be encouraged to support some programmes in their former institutions. Some of the alumni are currently at decision making bodies in public or private corporates;
(h) Other alternatives could be to encourage bursaries, grants and scholarships from firms and charitable organisations; as well as fund raising, both internally and abroad.
I have attempted to provide an alternative sustainable model for financing public higher education in Tanzania in the context of development and retention of new generation of academics. However, this is not an exhaustive list of alternative ways of improving financing of higher education institutions, more ideas and innovations can be generated. The article focused on financing public universities and university colleges.

The Tampa is a two-door muscle car featured in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and seen only in one cutscene in The Lost and Damned. It returns as a fully-drivable car in The Ballad of Gay Tony and possibly Grand Theft Auto V.
GTA San AndreasDesign
The Tampa in GTA San Andreas resembles a 1965-1969 Chevrolet Corvair, except it isn't rear-engined and it has a grill. It has plain steel wheels, and mismatched paint on multiple body panels, indicating it was put together with spare parts from a junkyard, this also makes it one of the first "Beater" cars in GTA, along with the Clover. It also appears to be over-scaled and in comparison to some under-scaled cars, as it looks much larger than an old compact. The Tampa is one of the gang cars used by the Da Nang Boys, a gang based in San Fierro.
The Tampa's performance is, at best, below average, with sluggish acceleration and mediocre top speed, as well as heavy steering and unstable cornering, like that of a Clover and a Sabre.
In TransFender:
- Color (allows the car to feature a single tone body color)
- Hood Scoop (two varieties)
- Hood Vents (two varieties)
- Exhaust (three varieties)
- Spoiler (three varieties)
- Side Skirt
- Nitro (three varieties)
- Wheels (ten varieties)
- Bass Boost
- Hydraulics
The Lost and Damned — The Ballad of Gay Tony
In both The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony, the Bravado Tampa is redesigned as a far more beefy muscle car that may butt heads with the Sabre GT. Parts of the exterior of Tampa is based on the 1964-1973 Ford Mustang , while the front of the Tampa resembles a 1970/1971 Dodge Dart; the roof and sides of the car are reminiscent of the '68-72 Chevrolet Nova (but with less of a fastback profile); the rear is reminiscent of a 1968 Dodge Charger. Being a muscle car, its engine sound is similar to that of a Sabre GT or Dukes. It can be seen sporting one all-over color, or with a double-stripe scheme. The paint job is based on that of a 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 302, with the stripe going across the trunk based on the super bee stripe, found on performance cars from Dodge and Plymouth since the 1960s.
The Tampa in TLAD only appears in the opening cutscene in front of the Pay 'n' Spray and is also featured in the BradyGames Strategy Guide for the episode. There was speculation by fans that the vehicle was available to drive outside of the cutscene, and the claims were backed up by lines in the game code which specify the handling and animations of the car; indeed, the car can be spawned by using cheat device and driven like a normal vehicle - it has every data to being drivable. An email sent by Rockstar indicated that the car was not actually drivable in the game; the car is also not programmed to appear on streets, even if the player drives it.
Tampa reappears in TBoGT as a fully functional car and is a common sight early in the game. While still lacking a manufacturer's badge, the car is implied through police chatter to be a Bravado model.
The Tampa's performance, which is identical in both TLAD and TBoGT, is considerably good in terms of raw power; the car's acceleration is excellent and the car can reach a considerably high top speed of 288 km/h (179 mph). This is because the car features a 310 cui (5078cc) Turbo V8 which produces a lot of torque at low RPM which allows burnouts to be performed easily, the combination of the large size of the engine and the softness of the suspension means that cornering is rather un-predictable, however, as the car can spin out in sharper turns or burn out, if the player applies gas to the car, as the car generates excess torque. Braking is considerably impressive considering the car's weight, providing the car with shorter stopping distances.
Appearances in Missions
- Even though the Tampa available in San Andreas has an engine in adequate running condition, there are mix-matched body parts and a crooked licence plate on the car; making the Tampa one of the first "Beater" cars in the Grand Theft Auto series before the rusted, backfiring beater cars in GTA IV.
- In the mission Nines and AKs, the player goes to do some target practice, and has to eventually shoot at a Tampa's gas tank using a pistol, making it explode, and passing the mission. It has a unique numberplate reading "FELTCH".
- Even though the car can be upgraded to an excellent state at a mod shop, it will always have crooked license plates.
- During the mission Yay Ka-Boom-Boom, the player has to destroy the Loco Syndicate's cocaine factory in Doherty with a rigged Tampa. The rigged Tampa has a unique numberplate reading "TIMEBOMB". Another modded Tampa is used in the mission Puncture Wounds. The Tampa is modded with stinger traps to burst the tires of the vehicle needed in the mission. Although, if the Tampa is saved in a garage, it will not have the ability to drop stingers.
- The Tampa plays the following radio stations by default when entered:
- K-JAH Radio West or K-DST in GTA San Andreas.
- Liberty Rock Radio 97.8 in The Lost and Damned.
- San Juan Sounds in The Ballad of Gay Tony.
- In GTA IV's DLCs, the Tampa's rendition has the same interior like that used in the Sabre GT.
- It's name is based on Tampa, Florida.
- In the mission Nines and AK's the player can obtain an AP (all-proof) Tampa.
- Tampa means "Cover" in portuguese.
- In GTA V, there is a vehicle shown which looks very simliar to the Tampa, however at this point of time it is unknown if it is an older/newer model or a different vehicle.
GTA San Andreas
- Can be found parked at the used car lot in Jefferson, Los Santos. This is the only spawning point of Tampa in Los Santos
- Can also can be found driving in the Easter Basin, Battery Point and Garver Bridge region in San Fierro along with the Buccaneer and the Manana, both used as the Da Nang Boys gang cars.
The Lost And Damned
- Only seen in a cutscene
- Can be obtained with the use of modifications and trainers.
The Ballad of Gay Tony
- Rarely spawns in Boulevard and Fortside, (Bohan).
- Can be seen in traffic in southern Algonquin and Middle Park, Middle Park West.
- Rarely spawns in, Northwood, likely to spawn in, Chinatown, City Hall, Fishmarket South, Castle Gardens, (Algonquin).
- If a Buffalo is driven through Lancaster, a Tampa may appear.
- Often seen driving on the Northwood Heights Bridge, especially if the player is in a Stallion.
- Often seen at the Francis International Airport

Download this app if: you like action RPGs with apocalyptic, fantasy settings.
Advisor Review
SoulCraft moves heaven and Earth to prove it's still in beta — Even waving the beta banner, it's pretty difficult to forgive Mobile Bits latest dual stick third person RPG, SoulCraft. It contains a multiplayer component that's yet to be available, littered with bugs and and an onslaught of enemy A.I. that's too sad to be comical. Yet I can definitely...
Developer Notes
The Action RPG SoulCraft is the best free Action RPG game for Android. If you have been a range hunter or melee demon in enough dungeon crawlers and slayers, seen all the loot, blood & glory and wraith, cleared the crime city, feel like you have been a warrior for all eternity already fighting...
RPG fun — Action RPG full of adventure and great graphics. It's only a beta right now, so there's a lot of potential for improvement.

The Natural Resources Council of Maine says Exxon, through a subsidiary, owns 76 percent of the Portland Pipeline Corporation, which the group says is being eyed to transport tar sands oil into Maine from Canada.
An environmental advocacy group today released a report showing oil giant Exxon Mobil is behind a pipeline that cuts across Maine and New England - a pipeline that may one day transport tar sands oil into Maine from Alberta.
Dylan Voorhees of the Natural Resources Council of Maine says Exxon - through a Canadian subsidiary - owns 76 percent of the Portland Pipeline Corporation, which operates the U.S. portion of a pipeline that transports crude oil from Maine's largest city.
"Exxon does not have Maine's interests in mind," Voorhees says. "They will act to maximize their tar sands oil profits with little regard to the risks posed to Maine's people, our environment or our natural resource economy."
Voorhees says despite assurances from the Portland Pipeline Corporation that the project is on hold, the company is in talks about how to use the pipeline to transport tar sands - which he describes as more environmentally dangerous than crude - eastwards into Maine from Canada.
A call to the Portland Pipeline Corporation was not returned by airtime.
This story was reported by Tom Porter.

More than one, but less than three.
The SRAM XX front derailleur is fetish property, like porn—bike porn. SRAM designed the XX front derailleur using a durable steel cage and lightweight aluminum links. The cage is shorter (less material= less weight) than a triple-specific front derailleur, and narrower than the front derailleur made for your 9-speed cassette. The XX still boasts a 15-tooth capacity and SRAM claims the derailleur will work on nearly any bike, effectively slimming down your excuses on why you shouldn't go double.

"Grey Is The New Black"
19 comments:
Ari I gave up colouring my hair about 3 years ago after about 2 decades of attempting to cover up the grey (I'm 53). I'm white but don't care. When I go to the hairdressers other clients tell my hairdresser they want it my colour. When she's says it natural they are so jealous.
These ladies look fabulous and I'm attempting to follow their style. A good cut, great clothes and attitude keep people looking wise, happy and sparky and others envious

Thank you for celebrating gray! I stopped dying my hair in my 40s (54 now), when I couldn't face continuing to touch up the roots by putting chemicals on my head every few weeks. I don't always love seeing someone who looks so like my grandmother in the mirror, but I'd rather celebrate who I am at this age than fight it. So, no regrets on going gray. It feels right.

What a fabulous selection of grey haired ladies. Whoever Rhianna is I think she got the idea from you Ari. Grey has been the new black for ages. I love my grey hair and it is long like Jennys'. It looks wonderful with make up, especially the grey based eye shadows and brow pencils.

I stopped coloring my hair about 4 years ago... maybe three. My hair dresser was horrified. I'd given up chemicals in my home for cleaning, I eat organic and I realized that I was living my life as a lie by using chemicals on my head and hair. I've had nothing but compliments since going natural and I have a sense of freedom going natural. My hair is not very gray at 61. I'm now envious of lovely gray hair and white hair... but I think I'll be happy with who I am and let it go at that.

I am 37, going silver at a rapid rate, and may I say I've never had an unhappy moment about this? I colour my hair now but every month I check in with my stylist regarding my silver progress. I can't wait to go au naturel; I've wanted Emmylou Harris' hair since I was 14!

For my 50th birthday I gave myself freedom from 20 yrs of servitude my hair. Six plus years later it is long again and I am so glad I did it! I often get compliments... quite a few men I have passed on the street or in stores have even told me "don't ever color your hair." The freeing process was not fun in the least, but it was worth it!

- rubydaggett said...
I stopped coloring my hair 14 months ago, (at age 45) and have just a little bit of treated hair left on my tips. I started going grey in my 20's and have been coloring my hair for over 20 years. It has been such a transformative process, to embrace my natural beauty and stop hiding my authentic self! I've had nothing but compliments about my beautiful silver hair and the illuminating effect it has on my skin. Love it, love it, love it!! Thank-you for encouraging other women to buck convention by posting these inspirational style mavens!

If there's one major trend we saw on the Fall 2011 runways at NYFW, it was… prints. By which we mean prints on everything. Abstract prints, geometric prints, criss-crossing lines, bright and graphic prints splashed across skirts, sweaters, dresses and especially pants (but we'll get to that). In the interim, we scoured the internet for printed pieces with a touch of what we saw on the catwalk. As always, we tried to keep the pricepoints as accessible as we're able.

Delusion. Most of us, when considering delusion, think primarily of delusions of grandeur. I don't know if that's the most common type, but movies and the news are full of people who likely carry delusions of grandeur. Think Lindsay Lohan or Dr. Evil in the Austin Powers movies.
Delusion comes in many more guises, though, and I'm quite sure you'd recognize most of them.
A fellow named Karl Jaspers was the first to define delusion, many, many moons ago.
- certainty (held with absolute conviction)
incorrigibility (not changeable by compelling counterargument or proof to the contrary)
impossibility or falsity of content (implausible, bizarre or patently untrue)
In layman's terms, or the plain English of wikipedia, a delusion
a fixed belief that is either false, fanciful, or derived from deception. Psychiatry defines the term more specifically as a belief that is pathological (the result of an illness or illness process). As a pathology, it is distinct from a belief based on false or incomplete information, dogma, stupidity, apperception, illusion, or other effects of perception.
Some of the types of delusion, according to that great online dictionary in the intertubez, include
Nihilistic delusion: A delusion whose theme centres on the nonexistence of self or parts of self, others, or the world. A person with this type of delusion may have the false belief that the world is ending.
Delusion of reference: The person falsely believes that insignificant remarks, events, or objects in one's environment have personal meaning or significance. For instance, a person may believe they are receiving special messages from newspaper headlines.
Persecutory delusion: These are the most common type of delusions and involve the theme of being followed, harassed, cheated, poisoned or drugged, conspired against, spied on, attacked, or obstructed in the pursuit of goals. Sometimes the delusion is isolated and fragmented (such as the false belief that co-workers are harassing), but sometimes are well-organized belief systems involving a complex set of delusions ("systematized delusions"). People with a set of persecutory delusions may believe, for example, they are being followed by government organizations because the "persecuted" person has been falsely identified as a spy. These systems of beliefs can be so broad and complex that they can explain everything that happens to the person.
and of course the ever-popular
Religious delusion: Any delusion with a religious or spiritual content. These may be combined with other delusions, such as grandiose delusions (the belief that the affected person is God, or chosen to act as a God, for example).
A delusion may be classified as bizarre or non-bizarre, and it may involve extremes of emotions such as anger or depression.
And of course, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders has its own definition.
A false belief based on incorrect inference about external reality that is firmly sustained despite what almost everybody else believes and despite what constitutes incontrovertible and obvious proof or evidence to the contrary. The belief is not one ordinarily accepted by other members of the person's culture or subculture.
But what happens when an entire subculture is in the thralls of a delusion or three or four?
Mass delusions. Mass hysteria. Most commonly this manifests as a group psychogenic illness, or, bizarrely, something more akin to the Dancing Plague of 1518 in Strasbourg, France, when over the course of a month, hundreds of people danced themselves to death by heart attack, stroke or exhaustion. Some believe the Salem witch trials of the 17th century may have been stoked by mass hysteria as well.
And history is filled with cultures that ignored the clear and ominous warning signs of their own destruction until it was far too late, thinking, as many teenagers do, that nothing could possibly happen to them.
I don't know what was going on in Strasbourg in 1518, but I'll bet it was a scary time for its people. That's the origin of most mass delusions — fear. And that's where we are these days, too — a time of great change, on many different levels — and, quite frankly, change is one of the most frightening things we face, for the simple reason that we don't know what's coming.
Now, here's the thing about delusional people, be they in groups or singly: Facts mean nothing to them. Your persuasive and passionately held arguments, not to mention your utter disbelief that the delusional can hold to such obvious falsehoods, will not move them one iota and, in fact, will likely only strengthen the delusion.
Their argument, of course, will be that you are the delusional one because you can't see what's so obvious to them.
That's how it is with cognitive dissonance. Think about it. If you've believed something all your life — say, that the earth is flat — no amount of facts, like pictures from space, could change your mind, especially if you associate with like-minded people. To change your mind would mean admitting you were wrong, and that's just way too difficult for an awful lot of people. And besides, all those pictures were faked.
The only solution is to peel back the delusion one step at a time, the way it formed in the first place. And that's not a quick process, leaving us in much the same place as all those historical cultures who failed to heed the truth in time to save themselves.
It's no wonder we want to scream and shout, grab those delusional souls by the shoulders and shaken some sense into them.
But it won't work.
The only thing that will is a calm, centered approach, a patience that speaks of the endless time we don't have and our own certainty that a spoiled Gulf of Mexico is a disaster is not a delusion, that tax breaks for the rich never help anyone but the rich, that educating our children is the best and only way to ensure our culture's longevity.
And that each and every human being deserves the same rights, regardless of the color of their skin, whom they choose to love or whether or how they choose to believe.
These are not delusions. They are the core of who we are, all of us. Even the truly delusional.
But as the people of Strasbourg and Salem learned, mass delusion is a killer, and if the rest of us have learned anything from the long history of this earth, it's that delusions must be neutralized or we must start again.
