Rebuilding Afghanistan's Healthcare Infrastructure
5 mins (40.12 MB)
After a quarter century of civil conflict in Afghanistan, much of the health infrastructure was decimated. The Aga Khan Development Network and its partners are helping rebuild it from the ground up, working with the government on health facilities from primary to tertiary with midwifery courses, new nursing and medical curriculums, new clinics, and hospitals. This film looks at how the training of midwives in Bamyan province is helping address some of the highest infant and maternal mortality rates in the world.

Maine Lawmakers will return to the capitol next week for a special session to deal with a bond package for the November ballot. They cold also take up some other looming issues, such as the federal withdrawal of Medicare certification from the Riverview Psychiatric hospital. Mal Leary reports.
Last week, Gov. Paul LePage walked upstairs at the State House to meet with legislative leaders at their request. The talks broke an impasse over efforts to place a bond package on the November ballot, which supporters say could trigger thousands of construction jobs next summer.
"We have a $100 million infrastructure bond for transportation," says House Speaker Mark Eves, who says economic growth was a topic of discussion at last week's meeting.
"It"s going to fund many of the critical projects that are in our state to repair our crumbling broads and bridges," Eves says. "It's going to put $36 million of investment in our higher education institutions - the University of Maine System, the Community College System. It's really going to put people back to work."
The nearly $150 million borrowing package is targeted to generate additional investments with federal and local government dollars as well as private donations for construction projects at the University of Maine and Community College Systems, and the Maine Maritime Academy. Senate President Justin Alfond says most of the bond projects will generate matching funds.
"We are leveraging money both from state, local and federal dollars in our transportation bond, with some of our other bonds that the voters will vote on," Alfond says. "There is private fundraising happening, I know, at some of our higher education institutions to match."
While borrowing for roads and bridges and higher education facilities are broadly understood by voters, a $14 million proposal aimed at armories may require some voter education. Most armories are state owned, even though they are used by the National Guard, which serves both the state and federal government. But House Minority Leader Ken Fredette says if the voters have the information, he believes they would support the $14 million package.
"What people have done in terms of military sacrifice for individual members, and then families being left behind over the last decade - I think people will look at that and say, 'We want to respond in terms of supporting our military people,'" Fredette says. "So I think at the end of the day, the education process will happen, and I think that bond will be supported by taxpayers."
The armory projects will get federal funds as well - an estimated $15 million for the $14 million state investment, if voters approve the bond package.
While bonds will dominate the session, it's also possible lawmakers will be asked to pass emergency legislation to address concerns raised by federal officials that the Riverview Psychiatric Hospital is not meeting standards. Federal officials at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services had already issued warnings about Riverview twice this year, and they have rejected two plans to improve compliance.
President Alfond says the issue will be discussed Thursday when the Appropriations Committee meets to deal with the bond package.
"There is, you know, some short-term solutions that the commissioner of Health and Human Services is working on," Alfond says. "But we are looking for solutions for the long term. We are looking for solutions that can do together. We don't want to rush to judgment. This is a very complicated situation."
The feds say the state is violating eight separate conditions under the agreement that provides Medicare funding. The state has submitted yet another plan to address the deficiencies at Riverview, but no word yet on whether that plan is acceptable. At risk is about $20 million a year in Medicare payments to Riverview.

Looks great.
I think one can obsess about making each step perfect. Try going further with it and see if anything really causes you any problems. If you work digitally, esp. in layers, you can always go back.
There are certainly folks here who mix hand and digital components. I'm just not sure if my attempt looks cohesive. Do my hand drawn coasts clash with my random bits?
Further Reading
It's just a basic outline. I don't intend to "finish" this right now. I just want to tear sections out and develop small regions as needed. The world map just keeps my work honest.
I started by drawing some continents in with a Wacom tablet, and then created large 'blocks' of difference cloud islands (using RobA's random coastlines tutorial) and moved them around individually to generate broken coasts, islands, and large lakes. I didn't want to cover up all of my drawn coasts, as I liked some of the shapes.
The file is 12.5 inches wide, so about 2000 miles per inch for a roughly Earth sized globe. My only concern right now is that the northern continent feels too close to the eastern one, given that the box on the eastern continent is the area where the city I discuss in this thread will be located. It makes the city a little less isolated than I intended... but I suppose trade winds could be set up to make the trip longer. 10 or 12 days maybe. That might be enough.

Some of your coastlines are definitely more fractalized than others. I'm not sure I would have noticed except that you drew our attention to it, though. Have you checked the "Semi-Random Coastlines" tutorial? That one allows more control over just how random a coastline gets--you get to control the shape of the continents, and the level of blur you apply determines how "fractaly" the coast becomes.
As for your northern continent's proximity to the other, you could just lasso select one of them and move it a little further away. I'm not sure the procedure in the Gimp, but in Photoshop it's pretty straightforward.
Bryan Ray, visual effects artist
My experiments with the tutorials lead to fairly uniformly fractalized maps. I think my goal, or at least my goal once I got started, was to create less uniformity by breaking up a few coasts severely and leaving others clean. My concern is that the clean coasts are too clean...
I'll experiment with pressing more fractalized bits around the edges, so that I can continue to make some portions more broken up than others, but I think I should probably also heed the "don't obsess over every detail of something so large" warning for now too. I can always perform minor edits of coasts, islands, and lakes as I focus on individual regions.
There does look an inconsitency with the coastlines. At first glance you can't see it, but then it can look 'odd'
Is this RobA's tutorial you mention? You could work at a higher res than needed and then reduce, which will give you detail.
I did a tutorial for Photoshop which is an alternative technique, which might help. RobA told me about his tutorial after I did mine, I'm looking into adding it in. We discussed it a bit here
Map's looking good BTW
It was RobA's tutorial. I dig the simplicity of that tutorial, but I never get exactly what I want. That's when I got the idea of using difference clouds and, doing something sort of like what you do, moving them around and stacking them to create coasts. The only difference is that I sketched out the continenets first and then just tacked the difference cloud bits onto the edges.
Rather than go the whole way around with broken up coasts and islands, I left a lot of the drawn coast exposed. I may go in and use larger (more solid) chunks and fill in the rest with random bits.
Thanks for the feedback thus far.

Alexa Chung, on the other hand, wowed in a Stella McCartney mini, passing the British Style Award baton off to Harry Styles (talk about staying true to your name). Sienna Miller stunned in an emerald Burberry number, but it was the debut of her new rose-gold hair that really stole the show. In love.

(written from a Production point of view)
Christopher Doohan (born 28 June 1959; age 56) is one of the sons of Montgomery Scott actor James Doohan. Chris and his twin brother, Montgomery, made uncredited appearances as background extras in the first Star Trek feature, Star Trek: The Motion Picture. They can both be seen among the Enterprise crewmembers gathered for Kirk's briefing of the V'Ger threat.
Chris Doohan is primarily a singer. In this profession, he competed in a televised talent show known as Your Big Break in 1999, in which players must impress a studio audience by impersonating the musical celebrity whom they most look or sound like. Doohan emulated country singer Garth Brooks on the show, which was produced and aired by NBC. Doohan also works as a Registered Vascular technologist.
The 2009 DVD box release Star Trek: Original Motion Picture Collection featured a reunion of fan extras in the "Special Star Trek Reunion", including Doohan, David Gerrold, Bjo Trimble, Jo Ann Nolan, and Fred Bronson chatting on the same soundstage used for the rec deck scene. [1] During this chat, Doohan mentioned his connection to J.J. Abrams' Star Trek and that the fitting reminded him of the days in 1979.
Upon hearing that his late father's role of Montgomery Scott would be recast for J.J. Abrams' Star Trek, Chris Doohan has started a campaign asking fans to write to Paramount Pictures in an attempt to persuade the studio and the filmmakers to allow either him or his brother, Montgomery, to play their father's role in the film. At the very least, however, they would like to be extras in the film as they were for The Motion Picture. [2]
The role of Scotty in the new film went to British actor Simon Pegg, but on 5 November 2007 it was announced that Christopher Doohan had auditioned for a "minor speaking role" in the film. Doohan stated he would not have even won an audition had it not been for the support of the fans. [3] In January 2008, it was announced that Doohan had indeed won a role in the new film. [4] He appeared alongside Scotty, assisting him in operating the transporter controls during the mission to the Narada (stating on Twitter that his character was Kyle).
With the announcement of the Star Trek Into Darkness, fans once again began a campaign to bring him back to the Enterprise. It was announced on IMDB that Chris will play a transport officer in the film. It was also announced Trekmovie.com that Chris did get a speaking role in the new film, and that Simon Pegg was instumental in making that happen. [5]
In 2012, it was announced that Chris Doohan will play Scotty in the upcoming fan film series Star Trek Continues, a fan film series that has been met with serious controversy since it was announced on trekmovie.com. [6]

My supervisor is hesitant to use a trigger in a process because if there is a network interruption at just the right time, the process would not complete. Does SQL Server include the trigger in the calling procedure's transaction? If not, what is the best way to implement this?

Here's how it works:
- Anybody can ask a question
- Anybody can answer
- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
Yes. Triggers occur as an implicit nested transaction within the scope of the caller's transaction. The trigger till commit or roll back as part of this transaction.
There are quite a few situations when triggers do not fire, such as:
· A table is dropped.
· A table is truncated.
· Settings for nested and/or recursive triggers prevent a trigger from firing.
So, in SQL Server a trigger is NOT guaranteed to execute. Sometimes it can be bypassed.
Also a trigger may be just incorrect. Either way, you may end up with orphans in your database.
If you post what you are trying to accomplish with your trigger, maybe we can help you implement it with constraints.

Thomas Morgan Woodward (born 16 September 1925; age 90) broke into television and movies in the same year, 1956. He worked steadily until his retirement in the late 1990s, with parts in dozens of movies and several television series, and well over a hundred television guest appearances.
He may be best known for his recurring role as Punk Anderson on Dallas, a show that also featured Trek guest stars Mitchell Ryan, William Windom, John Anderson, Kathryn Leigh Scott, Mary Crosby, Tracy Scoggins, Joshua Harris, Joseph Campanella, Michele Scarabelli, Allan Miller, and Conroy Gedeon, among others.
Woodward also played Boss Godfrey, "The Man with No Eyes", in the iconic 1967 film Cool Hand Luke. He also appeared in John Cassavetes' acclaimed 1976 film, The Killing of a Chinese Bookie, which also featured Seymour Cassel and Robert Phillips.
He made two Star Trek appearances, both in the original series, in episodes directed by Vincent McEveety, both as phaser-wielding characters with severe mental problems.

2010 was a year of many highs and some lows. One of the highs was the fact that the Member States' National Renewable Energy Action Plans showed the EU to be en route to slightly exceed the 20% renewable energy target.
Similarly, the European Commission's important communications on a 2020 strategy and on infrastructure priorities were steps towards a Europe-wide power grid and a functioning single electricity market.
EWEA reached out to a wider audience in 2010 through its 'Breath of Fresh Air' campaign. It communicated the benefits of wind energy through a visible presence in Brussels and beyond, including the display of a turbine blade and a photo exhibition in the EU quarter, as well as the array of events organised worldwide for Global Wind Day.

Project Squirrel
|Help scientists better understand urban squirrel biology.
|Count squirrels in your neighborhood, report findings online.
Project Squirrel is calling all citizen scientists to count the number of squirrels in their neighborhoods and report their findings. The goal is to understand urban squirrel biology, including everything from squirrels to migratory birds, nocturnal mammals, and secretive reptiles and amphibians. To gain data on squirrel populations across the United States, citizen scientists will also be asked, when possible, to distinguish between two different types of tree squirrels - gray and fox.
Anyone can participate in Project Squirrel. No matter where you live, city or suburb, from the Midwest to the East Coast, Canada to California, if squirrels live in your neighborhood, you are encouraged to become a squirrel monitor.
The scientists at Project Squirrel will also use this project to understand the effect that participation in citizen science has on participants. By contributing to Project Squirrel and documenting your experience, you can provide valuable information that will eventually be used to recruit other citizen scientists.

Hope to see more in this style (for example the second part of this world ).
A closer look at a region within the world of Wyn, this is the realm of Callis. Hand-done in photoshop with the exception of most of the lettering and labels which were done on paper with an old dip pen and scanned.

Excellent work Chasio !
Great map, the Legend is terrific.

Amazing, Chashio! I love the style you are using on these maps, they have a sort of cozy fairytale feel without being childish or cartoony at all. The lettering is beautiful too. If I'd have one nitpick, it'd be that the mountains could be more varied Some taller peaks here and there would make them stand out more from the hills, I think.
Oh, and by the way, I can't rep you right now, so here's an imaginary rep and a happy smiley:

Beautiful map
Thank you all for the nice comments, I'm glad you like it!
Lingon... There are mountains further south of this realm. And some more mountains across the ocean.
I have to say, I looked at this thread 2 or 3 times and the image looked rather blah and boring to me(probably because of so much green and very little other color variation noticeable). THEN, I clicked on the thumbnail to view the full sized view and it turns out to be a very cool map!! If I would personally make any a change(ie, if this was my map), I would add a bit more noticeable color variation to the "grass" and tone done the saturation on the "base" grass color. Again, it's still a very fine map even as is though.

Yep. The mark for the map style was similar to the Wyn map, as they're both created within the same group of cartographers in the setting, so I used the same base colors with a similar technique and tried to keep it all together and legible with the various lines and labels, etc. There is a lot more land than water in this one.

Obama telephoned in to thousands of watch parties across the country immediately after the speech.
He urged supporters to work together, saying the change he's talking about is "going to be tough." He said he hoped the speech resonated with them because the president asking for change doesn't mean anything on its own.
Obama said it will "require a big push from you guys" to get legislation, get it passed and signed into law.

Portland, OR (Sports Network) - Suzann Pettersen bounced back from an early
double-bogey with eight birdies in an 11-hole span from the third on Sunday
and that helped her rally to win the Safeway Classic.
Pettersen, who also won this title in 2011, ended the tournament at Columbia
Edgewater Country Club at 20-under-par 268 after closing with a 5-under 67.
Stacy Lewis closed with a 4-under 68 to take second place at minus-18. Her
Solheim Cup teammate Lizette Salas carded a 3-under 69 in the final round to
grab third place at 17-under-par 271.
Cristie Kerr shot 69 for the second straight day to take fourth at minus-16.
Caroline Masson was one stroke back after a final-round 70.
Sandra Gal (69) and Gerina Piller (66) shared sixth place at 14-under 274,
while Karrie Webb took eighth at minus-13.
Yani Tseng led entering the final round, and the former world No. 1 was
looking for her first title since March 2012. She struggled to a 6-over 78
that dropped her into a share of ninth at 12-under-par 276.

Damn that came out small - I need to locate my higher resolution version!
It's not just the built up areas that are beautiful with your city maps, it's the surrounding countryside. Getting that right frames the city to its best advantage. I just love the way you draw it.
I'd give you more rep, but unfortunately the gods won't let me (at least for the time being).
Thanks ravells. In all honestly I *LOVE* drawing countryside. Little farms, fields, trees, graveyards, hills and paths ... I seriously though about doing a whole series of villages at this scale, jsut so I could have COUNTRYSIIIIDDDEEEEE and a little village dotted in the middle, lol.
Again a very beautiful map.
My finished maps
Mapping Worlds (My blog about mapping)
Imaginary maps (My facbook page devoted to mapping)
Really nice, I'd love to see it in hi-res though
Got some rep
Looking good, I too like the thought put into the surrounding country side.
Very nice and "oldworldy". Love the feel
have some rep

Thanks guys - I totally appreciate the feedback and compliments. My plan is to start uploaidng hires versions of these same maps (unless otherwise prohibited by a client, of course).

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this service free?
Yes, Video2MP3 converts YouTube and other FLV videos to MP3 files absolutely free. We are able to do this by presenting advertisements to you during your visit, and would love it if you supported the advertisers!
How long does it take to convert a video?
The time it takes to convert videos to MP3 depends on many factors, but the primary considerations are the length of the video and the quality of the audio selected for the conversion. A normal video that is about 4 minutes long will take approximately 2 minutes to convert.
Why did I get an error message saying my conversion failed while converting a video?
There are many reasons why this happens and most of them are, unfortunately, out of our control. One of the most common reasons is that the host website (for example, YouTube, could have stopped sending us information and thus the conversion failed. The best thing to do is refresh your browser and attempt to convert the video again. If this fails you can try selecting a different version of the video and try your conversion again.
Why is the site taking so long to respond?
We're not kidding when we say we are the premiere video to MP3 conversion site on the Internet. At our peak times, particularly weekends, things just slow down a bit due to the volume of conversions taking place. Although we have many dedicated servers dedicated to processing videos, sometimes the demand is so high that the site can be a little slow for some users. We suggest trying your conversion at an off peak time or later in the evening, or consider subscribing to Video2MP3 so your conversions are prioritized to the top of the queue. Subscriptions also remove many of the advertisements on the site, and frankly, help us pay our bills and add additional processing servers so you can convert that vid to MP3 in short order!
To where are my files downloaded?
When a file is converted and uploaded from our servers to your personal computer, the download destination is completely out of our control. You should check the download location that is set inside your browser preferences to determine the actual location. Chances are that it's either set to your desktop or to the Downloads directory in your home folder.

Singlespeeds, baggy shorts, mayhem and controversy in New York.
If it weren't for the remarkable season Aaron Gwin is having, Rachel Atherton would be receiving more attention. With a victory in Windham, she's taken two in a row and three of the last four—though this most recent win wasn't without controversy. Atherton slid off the track near the finish, blowing through the course tape before re-entering the track. UCI officials ruled that the detour didn't give her an advantage, and the time held. When all was said and done, Atherton edged Tracy Hanna by just .26 seconds, and took over the World Cup leader's jersey from a dismayed Emmeline Ragot.

Tested in Northern India: the new Geox Amphibiox
08 Oct. 2012
GEOX LAUNCHES AMPHIBIOXItalian footwear company Geox is launching Amphibiox; a waterproof urban boot that was tested in the rainiest place of the world, Cherrapunjee, Northern India. The new boot is the protagonist of the newly revamped, interactive, amphibiox.geox.com website, which allows viewers to take a tour to the apocalyptic location while admiring the special footwear range.
Undertaking the spotlights, the unique performing qualities of its new generation of breathable and waterproof technology via four enthralling videos, filmed during the monsoon season in Cherrapunjee, creates an experience conducted by "real" people. The outstanding qualities of the AMPHIBIOX shoe collection have been immersed in the wildest and wettest nature.
Geox recruited four common people via its Facebook page including a Swiss photographer, a Venice tourist guide, a Spanish lawyer and an English snowboarder– who tested the new AMPHIBIOX shoe collection, pushing it to the limits. The collection was trialled by these four seasoned and adventurous travellers, with the understanding that the shoes could survive the exceptional circumstances in Cherrapunjee, where the annual rainfall is 11,000mm. These experts were selected for their technical knowledge and qualifications to assess footwear – with experience from their home cities.
Unlike traditional waterproof shoes which apply a membrane to a shoe's sock-like inner lining, Geox applies the membrane directly to the inside of the upper shell, a novelty technique that grants unprecedented and total waterproof and breathability.

Thread: Embarrasing newbie question
Threaded View
I agree with Anna ... no question is stupid! I have to say the folks here are just so nice and supportive ... I have only been digiscrapping since about April of last year (so not even a year yet). I remember when I first started, I did NOT have a clue! I had the hardest time understanding the layers in the Layers Palette. I still have tons to learn, and everytime someone asks a question here ... I learn from the answers (like Michaela's tip for saving the folder image - YAY! that will be so helpful!).
When you click FILE, and then OPEN to go grab a paper or an element, it might be best for now to set your FILE TYPE (located at the bottom of the pop up window) to ALL FORMATS. By doing that, you should be able to see all the files that are in your folder.
Good luck, and hang in there! You'll get it soon!

A total of 30 contestants for this year's edition of Miss Tanzania have opened a camp at Giraffe Ocean View hotel in Dar es Salaam yesterday.
The contestants are gearing up for the country's premier beauty pageantry set for September 10 at the Mlimani City auditorium.
Vodacom's head of sponsorship George Rwehumbiza whose firm is behind the supporting of the event for more than five years now, said this time the event has been improved to offset challenges experienced in the past.
"We have introduced a new Vodacom House where the contestants would be groomed to met challenges of life including how best to stay far from temptations", said Rwehumbiza.
The beauty contestants would stay in the house for the next three weeks ahead of the show next month, so says Rwehumbiza.
The event's organizers, Lino Agency whose director Hashim Lundenga said this time his firm searched for a winner of the show expected to be highly educated with integrity, discipline and beautiful enough to make strong impression at the global stage.
"We are not bound by the ethnic place of a contestant as the winner would be announced on the basis of merit and not otherwise", said Lundenga.
Fifteen contestants would cruise into the semifinal stage instead of the previous ten.
New contesting ingredients for this edition includes top model, talent model, miss photogenic and top sports model, miss personality and the most cheerful of al inside the camp.
Two of the domestic television stations would be beaming live the activities of the contestants inside the Vodacom House as another additive to spice up the pre-show and incorporate the public to get peoples' views.

Hi Alorin!
I think this one should go to Building/Structure Mapping... but in case, a moderator will take care of this. Anyway, I love ancient Rome and I like your map here!
* You can type suninfo and hit enter. A dialog will pop up with all you need to change the global sun
* Open the Sheets and effects dialog (), select from the list the right sheet (background?), tick on activate sheets effects if it isn't already, click Add... and then Texturize, choose a texture you like (you can find a lot of them here or on-line), experiment.
I'm no expert though, so maybe others can give you more hints. I've bought the whole suite, but I decided to go back to PS for now
Anyway, although I like your map here, there are two somawhat related things that I don't like:
- all the shadows are the same. This means that all the buildings and fences etc have the same height. In a map so small this is something that I notice. Fiddling with shadows means you have to have at least three different sheets (fences, small buildings, tall buildings) this way you can assign different length to shadows and maybe have the right dropped shadow on the roofs. I don't know if this last thing is possible with CD3, though.
- Another related thing is the arena. The shadows there seems wrong to me, suggesting two domes one on top of another instead of an arena, but maybe it's just me.
Keep the good work!

Tommy Watkins is one of two Black coaches in the Minnesota Twins farm system. After his season at Single-A Cedar Rapids concluded in September, he was called to join the major league team's coaching staff for the remainder of the season. "I thought so as my career went on," admits Watkins when asked if becoming a coach was part of his post-playing career plans. He spent 12 years in the Twins organization (1998-2009) but played only nine games with the big league club in 2007, mostly at third base after being drafted by Minnesota in 1998 out of high school. "I started helping out at my high school (in Riverside, Florida) in my third or fourth year as [an active] player. I always thought when I got done playing I would want to coach somewhere."
Watkins completed his fourth season as a coach in the Twins organization. Continue Reading →
