LARVA - Spain - www.myspace.com/larvasp [Advoxya Records]
Is not for, not on.
Neither claims nor tries.
Only it is fed on our undone ones.
Crawls, penetrates, perforates and devours matter.
The rot is his environment.
It is associated with disagreeable things.
Rotten, smelly.
There belongs ultimately that waits for his all.
Decomposses the matter.
Across his work he feels and makes to feel.
Digitalizes the thoughts.
Constructs the agony of being a human.
Express the existential restlessness.
Profanes the senses.
Terrifies the mind.
Transgress the limits.
Violates the Ideas.
The project was born on the 1998, by the hand of InqUesT and Blackend with the name 'Morbid Mind'.
With an experimenter spirit and focused towards electro-industrial sounds; they auto-produce some tapes that are distributed by his circle of friendship, without major transcendency.
On the year 2003 already in solitary and with renewed forces, InqUesT, gives a new course to the project
changing the name to 'Larva'). Due to the technical, social and ideological change of the formation.
Now more involved in social topics and with a more powerful/anguish sound; more noisers being directed towards places, without losing an alone apex of his darkness.
In the begining of the 2006 the formation meets enriched by the contribution of two more members (M.L. and Anoxia); what provides to his compositions of major diversity, and to his direct ones of a top energy.
The first record contract arrives with 'Diogenes Syndrome' at Komblok Records (www.komblok.com); who distributes the album in digipack format.
The year 2007 starts with the new Album's band 'Autosectarismo'; again atoproduced.
At year 2008 Larva signs with Advoxya-Records (www.advoxya-records.com), for the release of 'Voces del laberinto', thas was mastered by Jan from X-Fusion.
The Cd contains as an Extra 2 studio videos from the band.
The CD has a great feedback by the public.
At the end of 2009 Larva launches again with Advoxya Records the CD 'The hated' again mastered by X-Fusion.
Again with a great response from the scene.
After the launch, the band start a successful Tour through Mexico and part of USA, as a promotion of 'The Hated'.
At the beginning of 2010 Larva are working in 'Entre agujas'; a remix EP, with songs from Larva remixed by a bunch of Larva's friends (Asseptic Room, F.Y.L., M-Virus, Tech Nomader, Extinction Front, etc)
Larva are:
Anoxia - Sequences, live synth
InqUesT - Sequences, voices
M.L. - Live drums

Women principals in small schools in South Africa
Lumby, Jacky and Azaola, Marta Cristina (2011) Women principals in small schools in South Africa. Australian Journal of Education, 55, (1), 73-85.

South Africa presents a distinctive and varied context in which to explore the experience of women principals. The article draws on a larger dataset to explore the interplay of gender and school size in seven schools with 200 learners or fewer. From this study, we conclude that gender remains a potent influence on the career and experience of women, but that it is influenced by other factors such as poverty, race, language and the size of the school. Small schools offer women a less competitive path to the principalship, but may also maroon them in a low-paid, low-status and extremely challenging role. In this context some women attempt to neutralise gender by denying its impact; others try to unsettle it by creating social capital from female attributes stereotypically viewed as limiting, such as a maternal approach to leadership. They may thereby only embed further the negative view of women's leadership capacity.

The New Museum's latest exhibit "The Last Newspaper" is a misnomer, a slightly disjointed jumble of artworks that appropriate newsprint in varying degrees of relevancy and coherency. The pieces on display there, says the exhibit's introduction, "use the newspaper as a platform to address issues of hierarchy, attribution, contextualization, and editorial bias. By disassembling and recontextualizing elements of the newspaper…the artists on view take charge of and remake the flow of information that defines our perception of the world." I'm not sure what I expected when I went: I suppose that because of its title, I thought I would see art about the news, rather than art about politics that happened to use newsprint as a raw material.
Most of the pieces in the collection make their message merely by pointing out the jarring juxtapositions inherent in Western media. For instance, Rachel Harrison's trio of framed newspaper pages in which full-page ads for a Sotheby's MasterCard sit opposite articles about truck bombings in Baghdad and the amputee victims of fighting in Gaza. Or a cluster of mannequins wearing Thomas Hirschhorn's couture-looking gowns whose fabric is printed with horrible photographs of torture at Guantanamo. Good points, but not anything too original there in terms of media criticism. Or perhaps there are just a few too many pieces like that in the exhibit for their message to feel fresh.
(All photographs by Lauren Kirchner)
That said, points for originality go to Dash Snow, who collected several years of New York Post and Daily News front pages featuring Saddam Hussein, and then covered them with semen and multicolored glitter. The plaque on the wall beside this series tells us that "each page is a response to the hysterical headline and a comment on the brutally transient nature of celebrity." Another surprising piece, not on display on the day I visited but described in this New York Times review, is an enactment of the William Pope.L. performance piece in which a team of people wearing Barack Obama masks circled the visitors while eating small pieces of a Wall Street Journal. Sorry I missed that one.
More interesting, I thought, are the pieces that required the artist to use the actual process of news publishing to express their message. Emily Jacir, for her "Sexy Semite" piece, "asked Palestinians to place personal ads in The Village Voice seeing Jewish mates in order to be able to return home utilizing Israel's Law of Return." The piece in the gallery consists of a glass case of several issues of the Voice, with the ads circled with red marker. Another piece by Robert Gober, called simply "Newspaper," is a pile of ten bundles of old newspapers bundled with twine, that upon close inspection turn out to have ads superimposed with the artist's own photographs:
Many other artists use newsprint as filler material for collages, or as a canvas upon which to draw or paint, but I did not get the impression that these pieces were necessarily "about" the "news." The oldest pieces in the collection, for instance, are a pair of stirring collages by Judith Bernstein, created in 1964 and 1968, in which headlines about Jim Crow and the Vietnam War were covered with pieces of American flag and the artist's angry scrawls. (One of them, "Are You Running With Me Jesus?" pictured below.) The description of the pieces compares this process to blogging: "Much like a contemporary blogger who conjoins content from multiple sources and then reacts passionately, this work evinces a desire to claim a voice with which to speak back to the stories of the day." That comparison, of course, is itself a superimposition of a new meaning onto the artist's work, as the art was created decades before "bloggers" existed.
In lieu of an exhibit catalog, an editorial duo borrowed from the Latitudes project are producing a weekly tabloid newspaper about the exhibit from within the gallery itself, called "The New City Reader." Several specialty "information-gathering" organizations—like StoryCorps, the Center for Urban Pedagogy, Columbia University's C-Lab, etc.—have also set up shop in one of the floors of the exhibit to work there for the duration of the show. This was probably meant to give a "newsroom" feel to the gallery, highlighting the interactive nature of news and information. In actuality, though, seeing people sitting silently at desks staring at their laptop screens, looking bored, has the opposite effect.
The benefit of spreading the newsprint issues around the gallery and inviting visitors to pick them up, though, is the pleasant surprise of seeing ink smudges around all the doorways and elevator buttons on the museum's bleach-white walls. Similarly, another piece, below, splits through the gallery's silence every few minutes with the welcome buzz of an inkjet printer. Hans Haacke's piece pulls news stories from 30 RSS feeds and prints them out onto a long spool of paper. Its plaque declares that "The massive tangle of recent tragedies and injutices highlights the temporality of 'the news' in any given moment."
In the end, "The Last Newspaper" does not necessarily tell us anything new about the business of news, nor the process of reporting or storytelling, nor does it address the changes in technology that are lately causing upheaval in the industry. I do not understand why it is called "The Last" anything, and at times it seems to have no coherent message, no urgency at all. That may just be disappointing to a museumgoer who happens to also be interested in journalism. Kyle Pope, editor of The New York Observer, wrote in his entertaining review, "the exhibit suffers from a randomness that reminded me of a bad small-town daily, a mixing of spaghetti dinners and Eagle Scout announcements I do my best to avoid," and I am inclined to agree.
Its misleading name aside, the exhibit seems to be a celebration of the newspaper as a physical object of art, and as a means for social and political expression. The best pieces are the ones that play with the abstract concept of a daily newspaper: the absurdity of collecting a day's events, filtering it and framing it into a compact bundle of paper, which then in turn shapes its readers' perception of those events while supposedly providing a definitive historical record of them. Until, that is, the paper crumbles and the ink fades away.

Big Bang welcomed by over 2000 fans at Ho Chi Minh Airport, Vietnam
Big Bangs arrival at Ho Chi Minh City Airport on April 14th was welcomed by 2,000 fans.
Despite their late-night arrival time of 11PM, the Big Bang fans are reported to have waited for the group many hours before. Apparently, the fans were a little too excited as they apparently rushed in on the group immediately after the members arrived. The Big Bang members were escorted to emergency exits previously prepared by airport security.
Placards and banners for Big Bang are reported to be plastered all over the city of Ho Chi Minh by fans in anticipation for their concert.
An international refreshment company is sponsoring the concert in Vietnam, and Big Bang will be just one of 18 acts to perform in front of a crowd of 30,000.
In related news, Big Bang previously arrived on April 9th at the Taiwan International Airport and was greeted by 1,200 fans.

A dolphin that found its way into Brooklyn's heavily polluted Gowanus Canal died late Friday afternoon, dashing hopes that the animal would find its way to safety with the rise of the tide. Biologist Robert DiGiovanni told the New York Daily News that it was unsafe for rescuers to enter the polluted water of the canal, which the EPA declared a Superfund site in 2010.
Quite a few tweeters called out Nanny Bloomberg for allowing a life to slip through his usually overreaching fingers.
Nope, Brooklyn is out of Super Mayor's jurisdiction; besides, he was busy saving a dog from freezing. Hear that, Bloomberg? Booker saved the dog.
All jokes aside, the contamination in the canal is no joke.

Dark Chocolate Fridge Squares
Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 10 mins
A very simple recipe that's easily adapted to whatever you have in the cupboard. I am driven crazy on a regular basis, being pestered to make these...so be warned!
Ingredients Nutrition
- 9 1⁄2 ounces dark chocolate
- 6 ounces butter
- 4 tablespoons golden syrup
- 2 tablespoons dark rum (optional)
- 6 ounces biscuits (I use rich tea or digestive)
- 1 ounce toasted rice cereal
- 1 3⁄4 ounces chopped walnuts or 1 3⁄4 ounces pecans
- 3 1⁄2 ounces chopped glace cherries
- 1 ounce white chocolate (optional)
- Melt the dark chocolate, butter, syrup and rum in a large saucepan.
- Break up the biscuit and mix it into the chocolate mixture along with the rice cereal, nuts and cherries.
- Line a 7" square tin with parchment paper. Push the mixture into the tin and then chill for 2 hours.
- When set, drizzle with melted white chocolate--optional.
- Cut into squares and watch them disappear before your very eyes!

So wonderful! I used mostly 70% chocolate but didn't have quite enough so added some 49% to make up the difference. I did use the rum but skipped the white chocolate. Used pecans and instead of glace cherries I used sweetened dried cherries. I could have gotten a hold of digestives but instead I used some shortbread cookies I had on hand that someone had given me. Love these so so much! Thanks for sharing!
Was happy to make these, among other things because I still have a nice stash of golden syrup! I did leave out the rum & we didn't miss it one bit! Just one more nice way to serve up what a chocoholic craves ~ Thanks for sharing the recipe [Tagged & made in Please Review My Recipe]
These are different from store-bought refrigerator squares that I have had but these are very good! We didn't have rum so used bourbon which worked beautifully. My only change would be to increase the syrup or add a little sugar, although I imagine using really good quality dark chocolate would produce a less bitter taste. Thanks for a lovely recipe!

Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) stock prices recently surged, only to plunge once again. If the Los Gatos, Calif., video subscription company can't stage a consistent comeback after months of travail, shareholders will find it challenging to make its senior managers accountable.
Netflix shares soared nearly 10.5% to close at $73.52 per share on Oct. 8, but have sunk since to around $65.70 early Thursday. The momentary uptick was a marked departure from the stock's nearly 40% slide during the past year. As we discussed here, CEO Reed Hastings and his team have experienced problems in recent months that range from losing money in the first quarter to backtracking on a plan last year to separate Netflix's DVD-by-mail service from its streaming service.
Analysts are sparring over what happens next. For example, Morgan Stanley upgraded Netflix and slapped an $85 price target on the stock, The Wall Street Journal reported on Oct. 8. Analyst Scott Devitt reportedly explained that the e-commerce giant Amazon.com (NASDAQ:AMZN) isn't as focused on developing original content to the degree originally thought, potentially diminishing a competitive threat. Then Bank of America downgraded Netflix's stock while maintaining a $72 per share target, noting more concern about the company's domestic streaming business and its international streaming profitability, the WSJ reported Oct. 9.
While investors wonder about the future, Hastings' salary doesn't depend on Netflix's business performance. Unlike most publicly traded companies, which often link a portion of executive compensation to specified targets such as the amount of revenue or earnings achieved, Netflix has taken the unusual move of granting its named executive officers only fully vested stock options. In 2011, Hastings received a $500,000 salary and stock option awards that the company estimates will be worth around $8.79 million whenever he decides to exercise them. While his monthly stock option allowance has decreased this year by 50% compared to what it had been in 2011, this won't likely dent his fortune. In addition to the above-mentioned salary in 2011, the CEO realized nearly $43 million that year by exercising 190,500 of stock options earned in times past.
Not only is Hastings' pay not linked to his performance, but his company's policies limit shareholder say on the boards' decision-making. For example, many companies allow their investors to vote and elect all their directors each year, but at Netflix three groups of directors are elected every three years so that investors vote only on a portion of the board every year. When a shareholder protested in recent months that a change to the system would enable Netflix investors to have more input on the directors' performance, the board responded that its existing system strengthens the independence of non-employee directors against the "often short-term focus of special interests." It remains unclear whether the board is referring to its minority investors as special interests.
Given that Netflix's managers don't have any checks and balances offsetting their powers, they seem more likely to deliver unpredictable results. Indeed, an analysis of Netflix's financial data results in an Accounting and Governance Risk (AGR) score of 3, indicating higher accounting and governance risk than 97% of companies.
Investors who decide to buy this stock are essentially putting their money into the hands of senior managers who can do whatever they like with it. Investors could find a safer bet elsewhere.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.
Business relationship disclosure: The article has been written by a financial reporter at GMI. The reporter has no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article. Nobody paid GMI to write this article on his or her behalf.

Ultimate Ears
Why custom fit? A custom fit ear piece is comfortable - it's designed to fit snugly, yet comfortably in your ear. The proper fit also provides outside noise cancellation of up to -26db (perfect for when you're trying to listen to your iPod or DVD player on an airplane), and better yet, the snug fits creates what is essentially a resonance chamber in your ear, and that means bigger, better bass without having to increase volume. It also means that people sitting next to you won't hear what you're listening too, and that's a feature that I wish every person on the Metro while listening to an iPod would take advantage of.
The entry level Ultimate Ears
feature dual drivers (high and low frequencies), a frequency response of 20Hz to 16kHz, 119db of sensitivity at 1 milliwatt, and come with your choice of clear, black, beige or brown replaceable cables in lengths of 46-inches or 64-inches. The UE-5c's are ideal for iPod owners. The suggested retail for the UE-5c is $550.
The top of the line
feature triple drivers (single high, dual low drivers), a frequency response of 20Hz to 16kHz, 119db sensitivity at 1 milliwatt, and can be molded in your choice of skin tone, custom color, or two-color swirl (at no charge). Like the UE-5c, the cables are available in a variety of colors and lengths, and are replaceable. The suggested retail for the UE-10 PRO is $900.
Sure, the Ultimate Ears are a bit pricey, but once you try them, you'll never want to leave home without them. And besides, you spent several hundred dollars on your mp3 player, and you've spent more than a few hundred bucks customizing your car, so why not indulge yourself with the most comfortable, best sounding set of ear phones you'll ever experience? Ultimate Ears are designed to last a lifetime (if cared for properly), and are sure to earn you major cool points with your bench racing buddies. Give them a try, and you'll wonder why you ever fooled around with any of those other ear bud-type headphones.

This review is from: LG 23EA63V-P Black 23" 5ms HDMI Widescreen LED Backlight LCD Monitor, IPS-Panel 250 cd/m2 10,000,000:1
Pros: Image quality is good for the price, calibrates to 97% of sRGB on my unit.
Cons: A major problem I have which is causing me to consider returning is that the sharpness setting is not persistant between power or sleep cycle. You have to re-adjust every time. I believe this is a firmware bug, if you are happy with the overboosted sharpness, then it is fine for you, but to me it appears it introduce artifacts into the image.READ FULL REVIEW

Pros: Lets just get to the cons.
Cons: The asus auto voltage control sets the voltage way too high and using custom voltage does not seem to work anymore.
Here is why:
I had this running a 4.6 overclock running cinebench...
Both cpu and cpu cache (uncore) offset and additional voltage were set to
and the computer still ran and booted, still ran cinebench and the voltage was only affected by turning down the offset voltage but not even by much.
The firmware is bugged and has been bugged.
With the latest firmware i cant even get to a 4.7 ghz overclock, i used to be able to get to 4.9 ghz.
Other Thoughts: Every firmware update makes this board worse.READ FULL REVIEW

text: Solar Energy Duke Energy Building Solar Farm At Camp Lejeune By Dave DeWitt • Jan 22, 2015 Duke Energy/Progress Energy Duke Energy has announced yet another solar farm to be built in North Carolina. But this one is unique: it's the first solar farm the utility company has ever built on a military base. The Camp Lejeune solar farm will be a 13-megawatt facility that could power as many as 3,000 homes. That is relatively small, when compared to the 65-megawatt Duke Energy facility under construction in Duplin County. Solar Business Is Booming In NC, But For How Long? By Dave DeWitt • Nov 18, 2014 Yes Solar Solutions The small warehouse and loading area in the back of the Yes! Solar Solutions building in Cary is empty. And that's a good thing. On this bright, sunny Fall day, it means all the crews are out on jobs, installing solar panels on houses. Kathy Miller and her husband Stew started the company in 2009, after selling the Primrose Schools of Cary. They could have done almost anything at that point, but decided to throw their future into solar energy. Turns out, the pre-school business and the solar business aren't all that different. Big Tech May Determine Fate Of Renewable Energy In NC By Dave DeWitt • Oct 27, 2014 Apple When Apple makes an announcement – any announcement – the world stops and listens. And while it wasn't a new product launch, when Apple CEO Tim Cook spoke last month ahead of the United Nations Climate Summit, it was a big deal. "We have a huge data center in Maiden North Carolina," Cook said. "There were no options to buy renewable energy. Our only way to do that, was to build it." Big Energy Changes Could Be Coming To NC By Dave DeWitt • Sep 17, 2014 Bureau of Ocean Energy Management The days of oil rigs off the coast of the Outer Banks is still many years away, if it ever comes. But the state of North Carolina is already making plans that will allow oil companies to use seismic imaging to search for possible oil reserves. Donald Van der Vaart, the Energy Policy Advisor with the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, told the North Carolina Energy Policy Council that seismic testing was last done off the coast of North Carolina in the 1980s. Duke Energy Invests Big In Solar By Dave DeWitt • Sep 16, 2014 Strata Solar Duke Energy is investing $500 million in solar power generation in North Carolina. Three new large-scale solar facilities will be built in Bladen, Wilson, and Duplin Counties. The 65 megawatt facility in Duplin will be the largest solar plant east of the Mississippi. Due to a state law passed in 2007, Duke and other utilities must source at least 12.5 percent of their power from renewable sources by 2021. "We choose solar today because solar is the cheapest renewable energy certificate available to us," said Duke Energy Vice President Rob Caldwell. A Solar Bright Spot In The NC Economy By Leoneda Inge • Aug 29, 2014 Strata Solar Strata Solar has constructed more than 60 clean energy projects across North Carolina, and they hosted a ribbon-cutting Thursday. It's just another example of how fast the solar sector is growing in the state. Betsy McCorkle is Director of Government Relations for the North Carolina Sustainable Energy Association. She says solar represents $1.5 billion in investments across North Carolina, and growing. NC Utilities Commission Reconsiders Solar Energy Cost, Possibly Affecting Industry's Future By Jorge Valencia • Jul 8, 2014 Brookhaven National Laboratory Environmental groups say hearings underway in Raleigh could determine whether North Carolina's solar energy industry continues to grow at a rapid pace. North Carolina has recently become one of the country's top solar states. It's number four, after California, Arizona and New Jersey. Duke Energy and Dominion Power are required to make or buy certain percentage of their energy from renewable sources, including solar, wind and hog and poultry waste. The state utilities commission is reviewing how much energy companies should have to pay for that energy. NC GreenPower Celebrates 10 Years Of Increasing Access To Renewable Energy By Rebecca Martinez • Jan 27, 2014 NCSU/CSE Renewable energy generators have channeled hundreds of millions of kilowatt hours into the North Carolina power grid. That's since the NC GreenPower program was founded 10 years ago. The initiative collects donations from companies, citizens and utility customers to buy renewable energy and diversify the state's power grid. NC Solar Center Director Steve Kalland is on the board for NC GreenPower. He said the program has also helped utilities warm up to renewable power providers. UNC Researchers Convert Solar Energy Into Fuel By Rebecca Martinez • Jan 16, 2014 Yan Liang / Energy Frontier Research Center UNC-Chapel Hill The Frontier Research Center at UNC-Chapel Hill has built a system that converts solar energy into fuel, so power can be used even after the sun sets. The US Department of Energy is funding the research. Instead of storing solar electricity in an expensive battery, researchers use the sun's energy to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen. Two of the Center's papers about the process were recently published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. NC Solar Center Can Now Certify Systems For Tax Breaks By Rebecca Martinez • Dec 27, 2013 Marc Hall / North Carolina State University The North Carolina Solar Center has become the fifth lab in the country approved to test solar hot water panels to the market standard. The federal government requires home solar water heating systems to have Solar Rating and Certification Corporation—or SRCC—certification in order to be eligible for a 30-percent tax credit. The Center has also been recently accredited to test efficiency and calibrate panels according to international standards. Pages« first ‹ previous 1 2 3 4 next › last »

Most Innovative Vehicle: Porsche Carrera GT
By John Henley

Porsche Carrera GT Photo Gallery
Detroit 2004 Auto Show Photo Gallery
This wasn't even close to being a contest. The
Porsche Carrera GT
is nothing short of an engineering masterpiece, and it clearly demonstrates Porsche's superior technologies, aiming to knock the Enzo squarely on its ear.
You'd be hard pressed to find any other vehicle (including open wheel race cars) that features carbon fiber as functional and integral as it is beautiful as the Carrera GT's. The racing inspired two-piece chassis (the front monocoque mates to the rear shell in a manner similar to a CART car) is comprised entirely of carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFP, and a Porsche innovation that's patent pending), and much like a racecar, the drivetrain (mid engine, rear transaxle) is a load-bearing member of the chassis, providing structural support and rigidity.
Aside from the gorgeous CFP chassis and aerodynamically perfect bodywork, there are other innovations such as the world's first ceramic composite clutch, ceramic disc brakes, front and rear double-wishbone push-rod suspension, forged magnesium wheels, and of course, that wonderful, 612-horsepower, normally aspirated V-10 that's chock full of titanium and other exotic metals...again, the list could go on and on, but space is limited.
Despite its hard-line engineering, the Carrera GT's cockpit is warm and inviting, and dare we say, "comfortable"? Yes, even our super-sized editors fit comfortably inside the supercar's seats - a true testament to this cars promise to provide real world comfort and world-class performance. Considering an Enzo or an SLR? You'd be silly to. At $440,000 the Carrera GT is a bargain, delivering unbelievable technology and engineering superior to anything this side of the world's most exclusive racing circuits.
"Call my wife and tell her we're selling the house to buy a Carrera GT," said Litscher.

A landlocked country in Southern Africa, Malawi has one of the lowest Human Development Index rankings in the world: 171 out of 187 countries. Agriculture is the primary industry, employing over 80% of the working age population. Food insecurity is chronic, and is exacerbated by extensive mono-cropping of maize (corn) and an over dependence on rain-fed agriculture. Food security and human development are further constrained by malaria, HIV/AIDS and high infant and maternal mortality rates – adult HIV prevalence is 11% and is 47% for children.
PCI has operated in Malawi since 2007, when it began activities by leading an innovative Global Development Alliance initiative to strengthen aquaculture value chains for fish farmers and other related micro, small and medium enterprises in the southern Zomba River basin. Since that time, PCI has expanded its efforts to include important initiatives in HIV/AIDS care and prevention; food security; maternal, newborn and child health and nutrition; women's empowerment; and disaster prevention, response and mitigation.
In 2009, PCI helped initiate the USAID-funded Wellness and Agriculture for Life Advancement (WALA) project in Southern Malawi's Balaka and Machinga districts. Designed to improve maternal and child health, nutritional status, and food security for over 200,000 vulnerable households, this integrated, five-year project provided farmers with training, tools and inputs required to grow high- yield crops using conservation agriculture techniques and small-scale irrigation systems to improve depleted soils and extend growing seasons. Mother and Father Care Groups promoted improved health and nutrition behaviors at the community and household levels. Additionally, through the Women Empowered (WE) Initiative—a savings-led microfinance program—PCI successfully formed almost 1,300 economic and social empowerment groups with over 27,000 members. Once established and operational, WE groups become a sustainable, ongoing business and economic development platform that is entirely directed and administered by the members themselves, without outside management, resources or long-term external support. Based on the success of WALA, in 2014 PCI was chosen to lead a $30 million dollar, five-year food security initiative in Balaka and Machinga districts called "Njira", which will improve agriculture, agribusiness, health, nutrition and disaster preparedness for vulnerable families.
- Smallholder farmer training on conservation agriculture technologies has resulted in improved crop production practices for 21,187 low-income households. These practices will help farmers to achieve higher crop yields, better food security and improved incomes.
In early 2013, PCI initiated Project ARC (Addressing Root Causes), a project funded by USAID's Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance to mitigate the root causes of widespread food insecurity in Malawi caused by drought and late or erratic rainfall. The project targets households in Balaka, where climatic and economic challenges are further compounded by reliance on drought intolerant crops and poor land management practices, resulting in high levels of land degradation, erosion, inefficient irrigation, poor soil fertility, low water table levels, and rampant deforestation. PCI is reinforcing the coping mechanisms of households in areas of high water scarcity through the introduction of drought tolerant crops and improved production technologies, as well as community-level projects to increase natural water retention in soils and recharge aquifers. In the first 12 months alone, the project reinforced the resiliency of nearly 3,000 people through the expansion and support of WE groups and strengthened early detection and treatment of acute malnutrition.
Since 2010, PCI has been addressing the needs of orphans and other vulnerable children in Malawi through organizing and maintaining Care Groups for caregivers of these children through the USAID/CRS-funded IMPACT project. In FY14, these Care Groups empowered over 5,000 caregivers by allowing them the opportunity to participate in peer-to-peer education in maternal and child health with a focus on infant and young child feeding; water, sanitation and hygiene; reproductive health; and HIV/AIDS prevention. Caregivers involved in PCI's Care Groups have shown substantial changes in behavior, resulting in health gains for the target population of orphans and vulnerable children. PCI also assisted with child abuse and exploitation response, promoted primary school retention, and increased financial and academic support to participating children. Because of PCI's rich experience with Care Groups, the organization was awarded a USAID/TOPS-funded grant to study whether the application of the Care Group methodology among fathers increases household and community behavior change in reproductive, maternal and child health practices.
In Malawi, where the national HIV prevalence rate is 11%, PCI has cumulatively reached over 28,000 people with prevention messaging and over 14,000 people with HIV testing through the Department of Defense HIV/AIDS Prevention Program since 2009. The Malawi program's unique features include the engagement of chaplains for disseminating HIV/AIDS prevention messages to youth and couples using the True Love Waits/True Love Stays methodology; self-help groups for people living with HIV/AIDS (PLHIV) focusing on empowerment, prevention, and care and support for PLHIV; training HIV positive military personnel as peer educators to strengthen prevention efforts among soldiers who are HIV positive; utilizing Theatre for Development, a behavior change communications methodology employing live interactive performances; and supporting income-generating activities for PLHIV.
CURRENT FUNDING PARTNERS: U.S. Agency for International Development, U.S. Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance, U.S. Department of Defense, and Kirk Humanitarian

The taste is ok. Will buy again.
Tastes good, fast delivery, liking it
Posted by 4944821117715350919 on Feb 28, 2015
The function part of it seems good and obvious. As for the taste, it tastes very similar to hot chocolate powder. I use it in milk to make milk chocolate. Occasionally I add it to my hot chocolate. It doesn't taste very good with just water, hot or cold. I do not have a shaker cup so it doesn't always completely blend but still it blends fairly well. Very satisfied with it and will purchase a second one soon, probably try another flavor.

Writers' Huddle is currently closed to new members. If you'd like to be notified as soon as it reopens, just pop your email address in the box below:
Does this sound familiar?
You want to write, you want – perhaps desperately – to be a writer. But everything seems to be working against you. Including your own brain.
You set yourself ambitious goals, you draw up detailed plans about when you're going to write – but another week goes by with few or no words written.
And another.
And another.
Then a new idea arrives, out of the blue. Or you read something inspiring.
You tell yourself that this time, it's going to be different.
This time, you're going to finish that novel. Or launch your freelancing career. Or blog consistently. You read a ton of books and articles and blog posts. You pay for courses and seminars and conferences.
And for a few days or weeks, perhaps even a couple of months, you actually write.
Then you stall again. And the days go by, and the weeks, and the months, and you're just not getting anywhere.
That was the reality of my writing life for a long, long time. It's the reality for a lot of writers and bloggers who I know.
But it doesn't have to be that way.
For me, everything changed when I became part of two communities of writers.
One was a fledgling group of bloggers, back in early 2008.
The other was my workshop group on my Creative Writing Masters degree, who I met in September 2008.
Without those groups, I doubt I'd be writing today. That's the difference they made.
I recognise, though, that I was pretty darn lucky.
I was lucky with blogging. Soon after I got started, I stumbled across some fantastic companions. (I also then bumbled into freelance blogging – which I hadn't realised even existed.)
I was lucky with my Creative Writing Masters. I happened to be living near to Goldsmiths College, part of the University of London, and I got a place on their excellent course. I was 23, with no dependents, and I could afford to take a couple of years to write (and to pay the hefty £4,200 tuition fee).
Chances are, you're not in a position to take a year or two out and to pay a large chunk of money to get that sort of tuition and support.
But I believe that all writers need and deserve to be part of a supportive community.
So, after a few years writing and a couple more years working one-on-one with writers, I launched Writers' Huddle.
As well as all the great teaching content that's included (top-notch monthly seminars, full-length e-courses), we have a fantastic, close-knit community of writers – supporting one another on our individual paths.
We can't make the journey for you.
But we can support you every step of the way.
As a member of Writers' Huddle, you'll get:
- The full support of a friendly community of writers – chat about your writing and share your work in a safe, supportive environment.
- Top-notch tutoring on writing, through our monthly seminars – learn new tips and techniques you can put into practice straight away.
- Access to a wealth of great resources, including our full archive of 50+ seminars, three full-length ecourses and four premium ebooks – you can use these at any time.
We have members all around the world, ranging from teenagers to over 70s, writing novels, short stories, client pieces, blog posts, and much more. Whoever you are, whatever your writing goals, you'll find a home here.
Membership of Writers' Huddle is just $19.99/month (paid via PayPal).
There's no minimum commitment: you can even join for a month, take advantage of all the existing content, and leave.
In fact, if you decide that Writers' Huddle isn't for you, just let me know within 30 days and I'll refund your first month's membership fee.
I'm a freelance writer in Fayetteville, Arkansas. My forte is non-fiction writing, mostly web content, e-book creation and web copy in technical areas, such as computers, software and other related subjects. I'm not a newbie by any means; however, joining the Huddle has shown that you can teach an old dog new tricks.
Many of the members are fiction writers and have a different point of view than non-fiction authors. As a result, I've been exposed to techniques and ideas that were new to me. The camaraderie and willingness to share have been beneficial to my growth as a writer. Ali and the gang are great supporters and will spur you on to do more, do better, to succeed!
– Steve Maurer (Maurer Copywriting)
Writers' Huddle is only open for new members until 31st May 2016:
New for Summer 2016
We have a bunch of new things about to happen in Writers' Huddle, so now's a great time to join us!
(All of these are in addition to the bonuses available for this opening; keep scrolling for those.)
2020 Vision: Setting and Meeting Your Writing Goals, an in-depth seminar (available as audio and as text). This is designed to help you get clear about where you want to be by the end of 2020 (three and a half years from now) – without wasting your time creating complicated plans that will end up changing anyway.
A new (optional!) "buddy" system, which matches you up with one or two other writers so you can share your progress weekly for accountability and support. This is a great way to get support and encouragement, and while it's something that writers have always done informally in Writers' Huddle, we're introducing a "matching-up" process to make it easier (of course you can still make your own connections).
Weekly Office Hours when you can contact me on Skype (through video, audio or text chat, whatever you prefer). Anything goes here! You can bring a short piece of work for me to look at, you can ask questions about any aspect of writing you're struggling with, or you can just drop by for a chat with me. 🙂
The Summer Challenge 2016, which will start in late June. The Challenges are one of the most popular aspects of Writers' Huddle (and one of my personal favourites too!) Everyone who joins in sets a weekly target (e.g. "write a chapter"). We all "check in" each week to share our progress – and there are prizes (Amazon vouchers) along the way.
A group version of the Blog On ecourse, which we'll run through from September onwards. (The full eight weeks of Blog On are available to work through on a self-study basis before then, if you want to.) If you know your blog could do with some attention, or if you're interested in developing your skills to become a freelance blogger, this is the course for you.
Bonuses for Summer 2016, Worth $106
I've got a couple of great bonuses for you this summer (the unusually sunny weather here in the UK has put me in a generous mood ;-)). They are:
Bonus #1: All four of my Blogger's Guides, premium ebooks that normally retail for $29 each or $66 for the four-pack. Writers' Huddle members have always had a 50% discount on these, but I know that many members are on the fringes of blogging or not sure if it's for them … so I'm now making all these ebooks available completely free to every member.
Bonus #2: My personal critique of 2,000 words of your writing. It's a while since I've been able to offer critiques and I'm really thrilled to be able to give you a completely free one as part of your membership. You don't have to take this right away, if you don't feel ready: you can have your critique at any point during your first year of membership. I don't offer any one-on-one coaching/critiques outside Writers' Huddle these days, but if I was charging you at my normal rate for this, it cost you $40.
Note: I normally do my critiques electronically, but if you want it handwritten, as per the photo above… that's fine too!
I won't necessarily offer these bonuses next time (depends how overwhelming demand is this time! ;-)) so definitely join now if you're keen to take advantage of them.
You can download the ebooks to read at any time and you can wait 11 months to book your critique, so you don't need to be ready to get stuck in straight away.
About Ali
I told you a bit about my early days as a writer already. These days, I'm a fiction and non-fiction writer living in Leeds in the UK with my family (husband, toddler daughter, and baby son). I've been writing since my teens, and I have a degree in English Literature and an MA in Creative and Life Writing.
I'm author of Lycopolis and Oblivion (novels) and Publishing E-Books For Dummies (in Wiley's iconic "For Dummies" series). You'll find posts from me on my blog Aliventures, and on some of the best writing-related blogs on the web, like Copyblogger, The Write Life, The Creative Penn and Write to Done. I've also written for Writers' Forum magazine in the UK and taught on the Guardian newspaper's masterclasses.
What You Get When You Join Writers' Huddle
There's a lot going on inside Writers' Huddle (the site began over four years ago) and when you join, you'll get a Welcome pack to help you get started. Here's what to expect from your membership:
Monthly seminars on different aspects of writing. Our members have a broad range of interests, and our past seminars have covered everything from the technicalities of setting up your blog's sidebar to creating characters that readers love. (The full archive list is further down this page.)
The seminars are normally audio, sometimes video; each one has a full transcript, nicely edited for readability, and video seminars also have an audio plus PowerPoint slides option (in case you don't like watching video or your computer isn't up to it). Every seminar also has a worksheet that includes a summary of key points, a practical exercise, and suggestions for further reading or extra resources.
Weekly emails announcing anything new and linking to popular forum posts. From my own experience of belonging to several membership-based sites, I know how easy it is to get busy and fail to login. Every Monday, I send out an email to keep you up-to-date with what's going on in Writers' Huddle.
I keep the emails short and relevant, and include direct links to the resources I mention (e.g. new seminars) so that you can quickly find those in Writers' Huddle.
Personal help from me, through the forums, through email, and through my office hours on Skype. I've had some wonderful writing mentors over the years, and I know that being able to get a question answered or having a chance to talk a problem through can make a massive difference. Any time you need a hand, I'm here to help.
You can post as much as you like in the forums, email me as often as you want, and drop into my office hours whenever you feel like it. (You're also very welcome to meet up with me for coffee, if you happen to be in the Leeds area!)
Full access to the archive of seminars. We've been going since February 2012 – so there are over 50 past seminars for you to check out, whenever you want. You can even download them to your computer so that you've still got them if you choose to leave Writers' Huddle at any point.
Don't worry about forgetting or missing out on the content here: each month, I highlight specific past seminars in the weekly emails, and I also link to relevant ones in the "Further Reading and Useful Links" for each new seminar.
Group and self-study ecourses. We've got three full-length ecourses in Writers' Huddle: On Track, which is about getting going again with a big writing project; Blog On, which is for new or established bloggers looking to get some momentum with their blogging; and Launching Your Freelancing Career, which is for anyone wanting to make money (or make more money) freelancing.
The courses are available at any time to go through on your own, but we also run them as group courses from time to time. Each course has a dedicated area in the Forums where you can talk to other people who're working on it.
Loads of opportunities to interact with other writers. Right now, we have regular Challenges, a "buddy" system, a monthly reading group, and of course the forums where anyone can start up a topic for discussion. If you're having a bad writing week, if you want some critiques of your work-in-progress, or if you just want to chat with other writers, we're here for you.
There's a special forum, "Introductions", where you can tell us a bit about you and your writing – lots of our old-time members make a point of popping in there to welcome new faces and to offer support and encouragement.
Writers' Huddle is only open for new members until 31st May 2016:
I am enjoying Writers' Huddle a lot. It has quickly become a vital part of my ongoing learning as a writer. In such a short time (of its existence) I have already received some very helpful critiques of chapters of my nonfiction book and my blog posts and guest posts. A few days back a spot-on interview of Seth Leonard on blog sidebars enabled me to make changes to my blog in minutes that improved it considerably.
The people in this community are warm and friendly and supportive. It's a safe place to share your work and get feedback. And they are not afraid to tell you what they think, honestly and constructively. I value that. Ali Luke is endlessly inventive and has an uncanny way of targeting and providing the very information we all need in order to improve our writing skills. I highly recommend this community.
– Bill Polm (Keys to Writing)
Your Writers' Huddle Questions Answered
If you've got a question about Writers' Huddle which I haven't addressed here, just drop me an email (firstname.lastname@example.com) and I'll be glad to help. (I'll also be completely honest with you. If I feel that Writers' Huddle won't be a good fit for you, it's in my interest as well as yours for me to tell you that up-front.)
How Do I Pay?
All payments are through PayPal. The $19.99 is automatically taken every 31 days (meaning that you get an extra few days free every year). If you're not in the US, PayPal will automatically convert your own currency into dollars. You can cancel your membership at any time, or if you prefer, you can contact me and get me to cancel it for you.
What if I Don't Have Time for Everything?
There are no mandatory elements of Writers' Huddle: you can do as much (or as little) as you want. All the content will be available to you for as long as you remain a member: you don't need to worry if you can't listen to a seminar straight away, for instance, or if you want extra time on an ecourse.
What if I Want to Leave?
You can leave Writers' Huddle at any time by cancelling your membership.
If you cancel within the first 30 days, I'll give you a full refund on your initial month's fee. I want you to be able to try out Writers' Huddle without worrying that you'll end up wasting money.
(And yes, this still applies even if you've downloaded all the content, plus the four Blogger's Guides, and had me critique your writing … if you want your refund, I won't quibble!)
Writers' Huddle is only open to new members from Thursday 1st October to Wednesday 7th October. We won't be opening up the doors again until 2016.
Joining the Huddle has been a great step for me. It's given me an opportunity to chat with fellow writers on a daily basis. I've received constructive feedback from other Huddlers on pieces offered for critique that immediately improved my own writing. I've swapped links on writing tips and greatly enjoyed discussing books on the craft that we've read together. I look forward to being part of this community as I continue on my path to being a published writer, because I know I'll be the better for it when I get there.
– Sean Cunningham

I have learnt a lot in the few months that I've been a member of the Huddle, both through the seminars and Q&As as well as on the forum, gleaning advice from other members. Being in a community of writers has also given me the confidence to write my first guest post (which was accepted) after three years of blogging!
– Melissa Goodwin
I joined Writers Huddle a few years ago, and what a good move it's been for my writing, and for me as a writer. Of course the resources are very good. There's lots to keep you busy, but there's much more on offer. Sometimes you just want to connect with someone else who is going through the same stuff as you. Someone who can identify with your writerly woes, and is on hand to give you advice, or feedback.
Being a member of the Huddle makes me feel part of a writers community. I like that, and know if something is bothering me, I can pop into the forums, ask a question, and before long, someone will respond, and offer advice on POV, character, or writers block! Whatever it is that causes us angst can be eased. It's great to feel part of something, and to feel supported.

I remember getting the notification that Ali had started the Huddle and instantly thinking: if there ever was a place to connect with other writers and learn how this online niche works, this is it! And I was right. I've learned so much here from other members – and of course from Ali – as we all have different backgrounds and experiences with writing, you have no idea 🙂

Writers' Huddle is only open for new members until 31st May 2016:

Another year, another boutique automaker showing off another limited edition morsel of automotive hotness at Gordon McCall's Motorworks Revival, aka The Jet Center Party. This time it happened to be Morgan, the century-old British anachronism-maker, showing off its new Aero SuperSports.
For those of you who might not be following the comings and goings of this cottage carmaker (read: everybody) as close as Richard Hammond, the Aero SuperSports is basically an Aeromax targa. It features the same aluminum chassis and BMW 4.8-liter V8, backed by your choice of a six-speed stick or automatic transmission. The difference here is the two piece top that can be removed and stowed in the boot. It was first shown at Villa d'Este but popped up in Monterey last night along with 50 or so other incredible vehicles we're sure to see more of in the coming few days here in Monterey.
Only 200 of these 2010 Morgan Aero SuperSports are going to be sold and we've heard that 80 slots are already taken, for a paltry $187K apiece. High-res gallery below, official press release after the jump.
