GeoTools provides an excellent series of tutorials to help you get started:
The quickstart is written with the maven build system in mind. The maven build system is very good at sorting out dependencies between lots of little jars - and is the recommended way to start using GeoTools.
Both Eclipse and NetBeans offer maven integration, for details please review the Eclipse Quickstart and NetBeans quickstart.
Using maven in concert with your IDE, and looking over the pictures on this page is recommended.
Traditionally users just dump all the jars into their IDE and have a go, please be advised that some of the jars will be in conflict.
For detailed step-by-step instructions review the Eclipse quickstart and Netbeans quickstart. Instructions for downloading and selecting jars are provided at the end of the document as an alternative.
As an open source library you are free to call any of the GeoTools classes needed for your application to be delivered on time.
However, GeoTools offers a clean approach which should cause the least amount of disruption to your code during library upgrades as GeoTools matures.
GeoTools cleanly separates out several groups of application programming interfaces (API) from the internal implementation of the library.
If you write your code against these interfaces they offer a stable target as the library upgrades. In the event these interfaces are changed (sometimes standards change on us) the interfaces will be deprecated for a single release cycle allowing you a chance to upgrade.
Formally these interfaces come from three locations:
We also have one stalled work in progress:
These interfaces represent spatial concepts and data structures in your application and are suitable for use in method signatures.
While interfaces are used to represent the data structures employed by GeoTools, we also provide public classes to get the job done.
Public classes are provided for the purpose of:
You can make use of public classes in these modules directly, in all cases they are utilities to get the job done. These classes are suitable for use in your import section. There is no need to use these classes in your method signatures as they do not represent data structures.
Interfaces only define what a data structure should look like, and do not provide a way to create an object. In Java the work around is to provide a "factory" that provides "create" methods which you can use instead of new.
GeoTools provides Factory classes allowing you to create the various objects used by the library, such as Features, Styles, Filters, CoordinateReferencingSystems, and DataStores.
GeoTools provides a FactoryFinder system to locate the available factory implementations on the CLASSPATH. By using a FactoryFinder your code can be built to function using only interfaces.
For more information review the page How to Create Something which outlines how to locate an appropriate implementation at runtime.
While you could find and use each of the various Factory implementations directly this would introduce a dependency between your code and that exact implementation. This idea of depending on a specific implementation makes your code brittle with respect to change, and prevents you from taking advantage of a better implementation when it is made available in the future.
Bad practice with direct dependency on ShapeFileDataStoreFactory:
ShapefileDataStoreFactory factory = new ShapefileDataStoreFactory();
ShapeFileDataStore = factory.createDataStore( file );
This code example would have been fine for GeoTools 2.1, however for GeoTools 2.2 an "indexed" shapefile datastore was created with far better performance.
Here is a replacement that allows GeoTools to return an indexed datastore if one is available:
DataStore dataStore = DataStoreFinder.getDataStore( file );
The DataStoreFinder class looks up all the DataStoreFactory implementations available on the CLASSPATH and sorts out which one can make a DataStore to access the provided file.
Code leveraging GeoTools usually works against the Java interfaces only but interfaces in Java don't provide any way to create actual objects. GeoTools therefore provides Factories which are concrete implementations through whose interface users can create actual GeoTools objects such as Features, Styles, Filters, DataStores, and MathTransforms.
This page explains how to use the FactoryFinder system to find the appropriate Factory implementations to instantiate particular objects. The section page will show alternative approaches to obtain and use a particular implementation of an appropriate DataStore interface; those examples show the utility of the FactoryFinder system.
To create an implementation (and not get your hands dirty by depending on a specific class) Java developers are asked to use a Factory. Other languages like Scala allow the definition of a constructors as part of the interface itself.
In GeoTools we use a "FactoryFinder" to look for a factory implementation on the classpath.
Here is a quick example showing how to create and use a Filter:
FilterFactory2 factory = CommonFactoryFinder.getFilterFactory2( null );
Filter filter = factory.less( factory.property( "size" ), factory.literal( 2 ) );
if( filter.evaulate( feature )){
System.out.println( feature.getId() + " had a size larger than 2" );
In this example we:
Found an object which implements the GeoAPI FilterFactory2 interface using a FactoryFinder.
(CommonFactoryFinder gave us FilterFactoryImpl in this case)
Used the Factory to produce our Instance.
(FilterFactoryImpl.less(..) method was used to create a PropertyIsLessThan Filter)
Used the instance to accomplish something.
(we used the filter to check the size of a Feature )
There is a loose naming convention where we try and have a clear progression from interface name, factory name to factory finder name.
However in practice we found it useful to gather many of the common factories together into a common class for lookup.
For access to feature (i.e. vector) information:
For access to coverage (i.e. raster) information:
JTSFactoryFinder - used to create JTS GeometryFactory and PercisionModel
ReferencingFactoryFinder - used to list referencing factories
It really depends on your application, depending on your environment you may locate a factory by either:
These examples will usually use a factory finder of some sort. For the details please review the How to Find a Factory page.
While the use of Factories has become common place (especially in development environments like Spring). GeoTools has its own "FactoryFinder" classes, unique to project, which is how the library looks up what plugins are available for use.
These facilities are also available for use in your own application.
FactoryFinder uses the "built-in" Java plug-in system known as Factory Service Provide Interface. This technique allows a jar to indicate what services it makes available (in this case implementations of a factory interface).
To make this easier to use we have a series of utility classes called "FactoryFinders". These classes work as a match maker - looking around at what is available on the CLASSPATH. They will perform the "search" and locate a the implementation you need.
Here is an example:
FilterFactory filterFactory = CommonFactoryFinder.getFilterFactory( null );
The "FactorySPI" system is the out of the box plug in system that ships with Java. That is why we like it - we are sure you already are using the Java software after all. The SPI part is pronounced "spy" and stands for Service, Provider, Interface.
The FactorySPI system has a look on your CLASSPATH and locates implementations of a requested service scattered around all the jars you have. It does this by looking in the jar MANIFEST folder in a services directory.
Factory SPI is a runtime plugin system; so your application can "discover" and use new abilities that GeoTools provides over time. As our shapefile support gets better and better your application will notice and make use of the best implementation for the job.
If you are curious you can make use of the FactorySPI system yourself to locate anything we got going on in GeoTools:
Hints hints = GeoTools.getDefaultHints();
FactoryRegistry registry = new FactoryCreator(Arrays.asList(new Class[] {FilterFactory.class,}));
Iterator i = registry.getServiceProviders( FilterFactory.class, null, hints );
while( i.hasNext() ){
FilterFactory factory = (FilterFactory) i.next();
Think of FactoryRegistry keeping instances as singletons for you. In the same manner as it is a Java best practice (when making a singleton) to "partition" by ThreadGroup (so different applets use different singletons). FactoryRegistry does not follow this practice - it uses Hints to "partition" - so two applets that are configured the same will end up using the same FilterFactory.
Here are a couple of alternatives for stitching together your application.
A container is a great way to take care of a lot of the boiler plate code involved in working with factories. Much of this documentation will use PicoContainer (just because it is small), while many real world applications use the Spring container.
A container is basically a Map where you can look up instances. In common use the instances are factories, and what makes a container valuable is its ability automate the process of "wiring up" the factories together.
Popular techniques:
The other nice thing is the container can put off creating the factories until you actually ask for them.:
container.registerImplementationClass( PositionFactory.class, PositionFactoryImpl.class );
container.registerImplementationClass( CoordinateFactory.class, CoordinateFactoryImpl.class );
container.registerImplementationClass( PrimitiveFactory.class, PrimitiveFactoryImpl.class );
container.registerImplementationClass( ComplexFactory.class, ComplexFactoryImpl.class );
container.registerImplementationClass( AggregateFactory.class AggregateFactoryImpl.class );
container.registerInstance( CoordinateReferenceSystem.class, CRS.decode("EPSG:4326") );
WKTParser parser = (WKTParser) container.newInstance( WKTParser.class );
In the above example the WKTParser needs to be constructed with a PositionFactory, CoordinateFactory, PrimitiveFactory and ComplexFactory. Each one of these factories can only be constructed for a specific CoordinateReferenceSystem.
If we were not using a container to manage our factories it would of taken three times the number of lines of code just to set up a WKTParser.
If you are writing a Java EE Application there is a big global map in the sky called "InitialContext". Literally this is a map you can do look up by name and find Java instances in. It is so global in fact that the instances will be shared between applications.
This idea of a global cross application map is great for configuration and common services. If you are working with a Java EE application you will often find such things as:
Here is the GeoTools code that looks up a DataSource for an EPSG authority:
Context context = JNDI.getInitialContext(null);
DataSource source = (DataSource) context.lookup("jdbc/EPSG");
The JNDI interfaces are shipped with Java; and two implementations are provided (one to talk to LDAP directories such as organisations deploy for email address information, and another for configuration information stored on the file system with your JRE).
The difference between JNDI and a Container:
JNDI is not a container - it is an interface that ships with Java that lets you ask things of a "directory service".
A Java EE Application Server runs programs in a "container" and part of the "container configuration" is making sure that JNDI is set up and pointing to the Services (i.e. global variables) that the Application Server makes available to all applications.
This same directory service can be used by you to share global variables between applications. Some things like the CRSAuthority can be treated as a "utility" and it makes sense to only have one of them for use from several applications at once.
Because making use of an application container is a good idea, and too hard to set up. There are a lot of alternative "light weight" containers available. Examples include pico container, JBoss container, Spring container and many many more. These containers focus on the storing of global variables (and making a lot of the difficult configuration automatic - like what factory needs to be created first).
Sometimes you just need to go ahead and code it like you mean it. The GeoTools plugin system does have its place and purpose; but if you know exactly what you are doing; or want to test an exact situation you can dodge the plugin system and do the work by hand.
You can just use a specific factory that is known to you:
DataStoreFactorySpi factory = new ShapefileDataStoreFactory();
File file = new File("example.shp");
Map map = Collections.singletonMap( "url", file.toURL() );
DataStore dataStore = factory.createDataStore( map );
You are depending on a specific class here (so it is not a real plug-in based solution in which GeoTools can find you the best implementation for the job). There is a good chance however that the factory will set you up with a pretty good implementation.
Factory classes are Public in Name Only
Factory classes are only public because we have to (so the factory finders can call them) - some programming environments such as OSGi will take special care to prevent you making direct use of these classes.
If you are working on the uDig project you may find that class loader settings have prevented you from directly referring to one of these factory classes.
You can provide a "hint" asking the Factory Finder to retrieve you a specific instance:
Hints hints = new Hints( Hints.FILTER_FACTORY, "org.geotools.filter.StrictFactory" );
FilterFactory filterFactory = CommonFactoryFinder.getFilterFactory( hints );
You can skip the whole Factory madness and just do normal Java coding:
File file = new File("example.shp");
URI namespace = new URI("refractions");
ShapefileDataStore shapefile = new ShapefileDataStore( example.toURL());
You are depending on a exact class here, violating the plug-in system and so on. Chances are that GeoTools should not let you do this (by making the constructor package visible and forcing you to use the associated DataStoreFactory instead).
This option is fine for quick hacks, you may find that the ShapefileDataStore has additional methods (to handle such things as forcing the "prj" file to be rewritten):
shapefile.forceSchemaCRS( CRS.decode( "EPSG:4326" ) );

Ministers agree packaging rules, set sights on emissions trading Directive
Legislation on an EU emissions trading scheme for greenhouse gases is taking shape despite its late removal from the Environment Council's agenda for 17 October. Instead, Ministers agreed three measures on packaging waste, major accident hazards and trade in genetically modified organisms, and set out how they want the commitments made at the World Summit on Sustainable Development implemented within the EU. But agreement on an environmental liability Directive and measures to enable the EU to lift its informal moratorium on GM products has slipped into next year.

Francois Nembrini joins QUANTIC Asset Management as Global Head of Sales & Liquidity Management
Prominent institutional FX industry senior executive Francois Nembrini has joined QUANTIC Asset Management as Global Head of Sales and Liquidity…
Prominent institutional FX industry senior executive Francois Nembrini has joined QUANTIC Asset Management as Global Head of Sales and Liquidity Management after his departure from London Capital Group at the end of last year.
Mr. Nembrini, based in London, joins QUANTIC Asset Management at a very interesting time for the institutional FX industry, and makes his foray into the buy-side sector after a number of years at senior level within the institutional division of brokerage and sell-side companies.
Today, FinanceFeeds spoke to Mr. Nembrini, who explained his new position:
"I am very happy to be joining QUANTIC Asset Management as Global Head of Sales and Liquidity Management. QUANTIC AM is an alternative asset manager focused on foreign exchange. It specialises in quantitative and macro strategies, and my role will be to improve QUANTIC market access, leverage the Asset Manager balance sheet to launch prime execution services for mid tier institutions and launch an incubation division looking to do allocations to emerging managers."
Mr. Nembrini joined London Capital Group in October 2014 from FXCM, where he had spent the previous 11 years in senior management positions.
Joining FXCM in 2002 as a Managing Director, Mr. Nembrini progressed to Managing Director of FXCMPro in June 2005 before becoming Head of Sales EMEA at FXCMPro in July 2010.
In September 2013, Mr. Nembrini was promoted to Global Head of Sales at FXCMPro.
He also founded TopTradr, a social trading portal based on a hedge fund performance matrix.
Mr. Nembrini is one of several very senior figures with a very well proven career to have departed from LCG over recent weeks, the most recent being COO Arman Tahmassebi who left this week.
Urbane and sophisticated Mr. Nembrini's international experience at the very upper echelons of the FX industry gained at FXCM is now able to flourish once again.#francois nembrini, #institutional fx, #lcg, #quantic

The objective of the proposed research Is to make novel discoveries regarding the functional and structural central nervous system (CNS) pathology that results from early prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE). Extending our previous research illustrating exposure stage-dependent patterns of brain dysmorphology in fetal mice, we propose to examine 3 distinct, but interrelated forebrain circuits that are expected to play key roles in the behavioral or functional manifestations of alcohol neuroteratogenesis in the postnatal animal. The proposed studies will utilize a well-established FASD mouse model, with acute, as well as dietary maternal alcohol administration at times equivalent to 3-6 weeks of human gestation. Innovative technologies and approaches will be employed to address 3 Aims.
Aim 1 is designed to test the hypothesis that early PAE induces hippocampal pathology (esp. altered hippocampal volume and related fiber tract Integrity and circuitry) and deficiencies in the performance of hippocampus-mediated learning and memory tasks in adult mice. For this work, high-resolution ex vivo diffusion tensor imaging will be utilized to define structural deficiencies associated with PAE, while a behavioral test battery will be used to probe hippocampal-dependent learning and memory.
Aim 2 is designed to test the hypothesis that early PAE causes defects in medial hypothalamic and pituitary circuitry as well as altered HPA axis regulation in adulthood. For this, immunohlstochemistry and in situ hybridization will be employed to characterize hypothalamic and pituitary pathology in fetal mice. HPA axis function will be examined in adults by measurement of adrenocorticotropic hormone and corticosterone plasma levels both prior and subsequent to an acute alcohol challenge or an acute restraint stress.
Aim 3 is designed to test the hypothesis that early PAE results in deficient inhibitory GABAergic circuitry in corticostriatal circuits underlying reward perception and alcohol intake. For this, intracranial self-stimulation (ICSS), intermittent access drinking, and design-based stereology will be employed. Overall, the proposed work is in keeping with the binge alcohol pathology/neurocircuitry-directed central goal of the Alcohol Research Center (ARC) and will profit from ARC support and interaction. The results of the proposed studies promise to fill a significant FASD research void, inform human clinical research, and continue to highlight the first trimester as a critical period for alcohol-induced CNS defects.
Structural and functional neurological defects are major components of Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) and remain a major public health problem. With exploration of forebrain pathology, learning and memory deficits, drug reward perception and HPA axis alterations, the proposed basic research promises to provide important new, clinically-relevant FASD data.

It was another heady week of gridiron competition for Galveston County squads.
Two lengthy losing streaks were halted, a big upset was registered and another team showed it is a force to be reckoned with.
On the down side, only five found it into the win column.
That can be tempered somewhat in that we had two inter-county matchups, but still ...
1. Texas City
Last week: 2
The Stingarees met La Marque in the annual Battle by the Bay and handed the Cougars a historic 56-35 loss to claim the top spot in our poll. Texas City is loaded with offensive weapons. You gotta see these guys.
2. Dickinson
Last week: unranked
The Gators trailed Friendswood 21-0 in the second quarter and could have curled up and waited for the final gun, but they didn't, pulling off an epic 33-30 comeback win.
3. Santa Fe
Last week: 9
The Indians had not celebrated a win since 2011 before beating Brazosport 46-40. The offensive showcase come down to a big defensive play when Santa Fe forced Brazosport to fumble in the final minutes.
4. Clear Falls
Last week: 7
The Knights snapped an eight-game losing streak by throwing a 29-0 shutout at Baytown Sterling.
5. Clear Springs
Last week: 8
The Chargers move up three slots thanks to a convincing 37-20 win over Dobie, that saw the Clear Springs defense blank the Longhorns in the second half.
6. High Island
Last week: 6
The Cardinals were nipped at the wire by Alvin Living Stones 38-37.
7. Bay Area Christian
Last week: unranked
The Broncos had a chance to tie their game with McKinney Christian, but a two-point conversion attempt failed and they went down 28-26.
8. Friendswood
Last week: 4
The Mustangs had a good lead over Dickinson, but faltered near the end.
9. Clear Creek
Last week: 1
The Wildcats' offense was strong, but its defense lagged late in a 34-21 loss to Kingwood.
10. La Marque
Last week: 3
The Cougars put 35 on the board, which should have been enough to win. Too bad they were playing Texas City.

An optical fiber methane gas sensing film sensor based on core diameter mismatch
An optical fiber evanescent wave methane gas sensor based on core diameter mismatch is reported. The sensor consists of a multimode fiber in which a short section of standard single-mode fiber, coated with the inclusion of cryptophane molecules E in a transparent polysiloxane film, is inserted. The sensing principle is analyzed by optical waveguide theory. For different sensing film thicknesses and interaction lengths, the sensor signal is investigated within the methane concentration range of 0-14.5% (v/v). It is shown that the sensor signal with the thickness of 5 \mu m and the interaction length of 3 mm strengthens linearly with the increasing concentration of methane, with a slope of 0.0186. The best detection limit of the sensor for methane is 2.2% (v/v) with a response time of 90 s. This sensor is suitable for the detection of methane concentration below the critical value of 5%.

Do you think or are you sure?
"To think is not to know."
[Peter Mix]
That was what he told his secretary,
kind of pissed, after she used 'I think' to start a sentence.
ALEKSANDAR MANDIC - Of Serbian descent and born in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Aleksandar Mandic is a precursor of the country's electronic communication, and became an entrepreneurial case study in Harvard. It was him who brought the Internet to Brazil, and who owned the first access provider. He left a 17-year career in Siemens, and decided it was about time he had his own business back in the 90s - Mandic BBS (Bulletin Board System), an exchange of information by telephonic conection. Mandic has become, upon Internet's arrival, one of the area's giants. One of its most recent releases is Mandic Magic, an app used to reveal public wi-fi passwords no matter where you are. Currently called Wi-Fi Magic, the app became the Brazilian app most downloaded worldwide after only 20 days of its release.

The Mercurial CR7 cleats are the signature range for the Portuguese sensation that is Cristiano Ronaldo. The CR7 collection are constructed of the same materials as Nike's standard Vapor and Superfly however are specifically designed and given individual color-ways exclusively for a player commonly regarded as the greatest of all time.
The latest CR7 Mercurial cleats pose as the ninth generation of the signature collection for Cristiano Ronaldo. CR7 has received some iconic editions throughout the exclusive's history with notable releases incorporating a short video which explain the cleats inspiration.
The CR7 Mercurial cleats feature a Flyknit upper, Dynamic Fit collar, and carbon fibre sole plate upon the technology-rich Superfly silo whereas the Vapor edition opts for a traditionally low-cut profile with an ultra-thin Teijin synthetic upper for added contact between the foot and ball.

I have been blessed with an abundance of sweet baby boys in the studio lately! I just love baby boys! Now don't get me wrong, I love baby girls too! I just love babies in general!
With baby boys I love the challenge of finding cute ideas for the photo shoots. With a girls there are so many options available but for boys it is more limited so I have been on a mission to build up a good boy selection of props to add to my great selection of girl things.
Having so many baby boys being born has given me the chance to try them all out and I am so excited to share. So instead of clogging up your news feeds with a bunch of posts I am combining the last few newborn sessions into this post of some of my favorite images.

Arriving earlier than expected but last as planned, Green Day's third album of 2012 concludes their pop-punk trilogy not on a triumphant note but on one of confusion. Green Day's blueprints for 2012 and beyond may have been trashed by Billie Joe Armstrong's unexpected entry into rehab but that doesn't alter the albums themselves, which aren't necessarily a carefully constructed trilogy but rather an outpouring of energy, the group pushing out every completed song it had. ¡Tré!'s two predecessors had clear identities: ¡Uno! was the arena rock record; ¡Dos! was the punk-garage lark. In contrast, ¡Tré! feels like leftovers, the songs that didn't fit either theme, a collection of songs capturing the band at its loosest and poppiest, throwing away tunes without much care. It's hookier and not as ponderous as ¡Uno! but not quite as breakneck as ¡Dos!, never delving into the sleaze of "Fuck Time," never feeling like a last grasp at adolescence the way ¡Dos! did at its best. Instead, ¡Tré! is a morning-after record, sometimes regretful, sometimes unrepentant, divided between unapologetic partying and amends for their wayward ways. On the whole, ¡Tré! winds up on the happier side of the scale: the rhythms are insistent, the hooks immediate, the veneer bright and cheerful, never once regretting the chaos that happened the night before. But underneath this good time is the slight, perhaps unconscious, admission that things cannot continue as they did before. There is not the desperation or the hedonistic pulse that ran through ¡Dos!, but rather a shrugging admission that the time for partying is over. So there's a bittersweet undertow to ¡Tré!, a feeling underscored by Armstrong's rehab: he could no longer continue trying to recapture his youth, but dammit if he doesn't come close to doing so at times throughout ¡Tré!

Folia Parasitologica, vol. 51, issue 4 (2004) pp. 299-303
During 2001 and 2002, blood smears from 37 of 120 fishes belonging to 10 species captured in the Okavango Delta region of Botswana, were found to harbour trypanosomes. These trypanosomes displayed differing staining properties, were morphometrically variable, and ranged in total length from 29.5 to 80.8 microm. Mixed populations of the smaller and larger trypanosomes were found in most fish examined. Despite variations in size and appearance, these specimens are tentatively identified as Trypanosoma mukasai Hoare, 1932, likely adding another 9 new hosts to those known for this parasite. It is possible that Trypanosoma clariense Pienaar, 1962, described from Clarias gariepinus in South Africa, is also a junior synonym of T. mukasai.

Minster FM News
Tesco Still Committed to Selby Supermarket
6:59pm 17th December 2013
Tesco says it's still committed to building a new supermarket in Selby, despite pulling out of plans for a new store in Scarborough last week.
The plans for a new supermarket on it's Portholme Road site, which would also build on part of the storage depot and Civic Centre site were first submitted in 2009. The plans for a supermarket of 8,530 square metres plus petrol station, car park and landscaping were approved in 2011 but then put on hold because of the recession.
Tesco were then given more time to build the new supermarket in March this year. After the Scarborough plans were cancelled last week, concerns were raised the proposals in Selby might also be ditched. However, Tesco tell Minster FM this is not the case. In a statement, the company said:
"We remain committed to building a replacement store to serve the Selby community. We apologise that this has taken longer than anticipated and we are reviewing our timescales to identify when we can start."

Education Garden Volunteering
Santa Clara Unified School District has decided not to exercise the 10 year Lease renewal option with Full Circle Farm Sunnyvale.
Therefore our Lease with Santa Clara Unified School District expires on July 31, 2017. Santa Clara Unified School District will take over the property on August 5, 2017.
As a result, the education gardens will be closing at the end of day on Saturday July 15. Groups will not be scheduled after Saturday June 24.
The Santa Clara Unified School District has not informed us of their volunteer activity schedule once they take over management of the farm.
Full Circle Farm's Education Garden is a one-acre patch of green at the west end of the farm. The garden meets several community needs while the farm at large is focused on locally-grown food production.
All garden waste is composted. Our goal is to make all of our own compost and use this compost as the sole soil additive for our plants. This is a key requirement to achieving a sustainable garden. We practice both vermicomposting and backyard techniques. Our volunteers and visitors can observe composting in action.
Adult education + volunteering
We encourage adults in the community to volunteer in the garden. No experience is required as we do on-the-job training for our volunteers. All garden work is done by volunteers who have free access to the produce grown in the garden.
Growing a large range of crops.
We grow many types and varieties of edible vegetables. Some of these are experimental for the farm. Others are suggested by our volunteers. If a regular volunteer has a particular interest in a given plant type and has seeds/seedlings, we will find a place for the plants. This produce will then be shared among all the volunteers.
A place for children to experience growing produce.
Designed to enable easy access by children of all ages, the garden provides a space for youth groups from preschool up through middle school. We have a Children's Garden space available and many of our volunteers come with their entire family.
Peterson Middle School outdoor classroom.
Peterson 6th and 7th graders spend one period every two weeks in the garden. The children plan their own garden beds and then plant and care for those beds.

errrrr...what do you mean by "products in China"? Chinese brands or "made in China". As for the latter, I think many people would want to buy, eg. iPhone4 or iPad2?
Admittedly, a good guitar is an artwork, but it's not a "sophisticated" product. When comes to those "sophisticated" products, common consumers may only know two things related to "where" the product they buy "originally" comes from: the company, the brand's owner's originality, and the country where the finally product is assembed. However, if you wanna investigate in the whole value added process, much more companies/countries are there.
imports dude. imports. NOT MADE IN CHINA
Got it...Japs' electronics, German cars, that's it
you bought a car?
I have a German car in the US, what? I think I'll never buy a imported car in China because of unreasonably high custom tax+sales tax+import value added tax -- I don't want to give my money to the government for no reason. I mean, I believe Germany made automobiles are better, even tho China can produce these cars now.
agreed. Yea, the tax rate is just sad.
do you buy foods, electronics, clothes, music, movies etc?
hi ami
yes i can. why?
oh cool . but i just dont know why you didn't send me the link. instead of hijacking my thread :P
Alcohol: Europe
Hahahahaha ... mainly food ... NZ smoked salmon (my wife loves it), steak fillet (for some crazy reason, it is cheaper than the local ones), butter and cheese (hate the taste of local ones), pasta and pasta sauce ...
It would be silly to buy "imported" eletronics though, since it is most likely made in China, so there is a similar (or sometimes better) product at half the price ...
"steak fillet (for some crazy reason, it is cheaper than the local ones)"
Uhhhhh WHERE do you buy cheap steak?? WANT
Hahahahaha ...
Michael (ex Mike number one) ... Jenny Lou's, west of Chao Yang Park (I dont know if the others have them), 88rmb per kg ... and I think they only stock two packs every day? I often buy it in "whole", in the vacuum pack, about 1.5 to 2 kg ... then cut it into about two halfes, and then put them in the freezer ...
"do you buy foods, electronics, clothes, music, movies etc?"
--food: no really, I prefer Chinese food;
--electronics: I said that I prefer japs';
--clothes: not really, since almost all affordable clothes is made in China, and I have no interested in any luxury brands
--music: sure
--movie: if I were in China, I have to download illegal ones for that most movies I like are never on the screen in China
--others: yeah, Japanese make the world's best porn!

....well my Nikon D800E and 14-24mm F/2.8 were on a tripod and got blown over in a massive gust of wind, the D800E survived but the lens was a bit bashed up, the the hood was broken on the 14-24mm and the zoom ring was jammed up..so while it goes in for a repair I needed another similar lens - wasn't inclined to spend the same again so I opted for the Tokina AT-X 16-28mm f/2.8. AU$2200 versus AU$750.... I've used the Tokina on 3 shoots so far and it feels very solid (looks VERY similar to the ...View review in forums Leave a comment on this review
Tokina AT-X 16-28mm f/2.8 Pro FX
I returned the lens within a week. I found it unusable for outdoor photography because of way too much lens flare. The front lens catches way too much sun where other wide angle lenses in the same situation have no problem. The image quality indoors and outdoors with no direct sunlight on the lens is good. Is some situations quite a lot of chromatic aberration, but in many photos CA is very acceptable. I am now waiting for the announced Canon 16-35 f/4 IS....View review in forums Leave a comment on this review
For me, it was an expensive lens which was equally heavy. Although it depends on why you want to use it. The reason I bought the lens is to capture ultrawide shots. Some photographers may say the 50mm and 35mm are the best lens for street photography but having the option of the 28mm. Even though you have to get closer to a subject you have the opportunity to show the experience the subject is having is also key. Overall I must say this lens is worth the price if you are someone you ...View review in forums Leave a comment on this review
I really like this lens for landscape shots during the day. The lens is sharp with nice contrast even at 16mm f2.8. Where this lens falls down in the excessive coma in astrophotography shots. At 16mm, on a FF sensor, the stars look like smears at 10 seconds. Also, I wish the manual focus adjustment range was longer. The AF/MF clutch isn't an issue for me, as the lens tends to stay in MF most of the time. I do like this lens on the Sony A6000 (with adapter) though. I have many ...View review in forums Leave a comment on this review
Okay, who am I kidding, what do I know about "optics." Almost nothing. I do know though that the photos I have created with this lens are the ones I am by far the mostly likely to bother printing, and when I print, I print them large-ish (13x19) because they stand up to close scrutiny. Sharpness, color accuracy, focus are all spot on. It's the heaviest lens I own, but for what it does, the weight is probably unavoidable. I don't use this lens all that often because it is really only useful ...View review in forums Leave a comment on this review
4.5 only because of the inabillity to have a filter. Other than that, if I didn't have to worry about the front element getting damaged and dusty, it's a fantastic lens. One of the best I've owned. It's super sharp and clear with no distortion. I used it with a SB600 and a Nikon D7000 and it's perfect for event photography as well as landscape.View review in forums Leave a comment on this review
This is one of the best Ultra Wide Angle lenses available for full frame cameras. I use this lens almost daily on architectural shoots where sharpness, contrast and color are critical. This lens out performs the Canon 16-35 L in sharpness, contrast and color on my 5D MkII at half the price. As the previous poster commented the AF is quick and accurate but noisy compared with Canon UltraSonic autofocus systems. What I like about the lens is the almost complete lack of distortion at really ...View review in forums Leave a comment on this review
The Tokina is the best EF mount UWA zoom, with a couple of caveats: Sample variation would appear to be a little more common than with Canon lenses Its big, heavy and won't mount filters natively Other than that, its head and shoulders better than the 17-40L (and a stop faster) and also better than the 16-35 II (albeit with a lightly shorter range but MUCH lower price).

If you are interested in some political entertainment, check out formykountry. A great read with some great humorous looks at politics in general, and conservative issues specifically.
Check out the post related to the political lessons we can gain from playing X-Box!
In times like we are in today, it is nice to see serioius issues like world events and political thoughts attacked and conveyed with humorous overtones. The only thing worse than someone spouting off their own political beliefs, is someone who spouts off their own political beliefs while not being able to do with a sense of humor. ForMyKountry.com is truly a nice relaxing place to be both entertained and informed. It's a lively community too, with a number of the posts attracting a large number of comments and replies.
The battle between a grown man and a neighborhood youth over the popular X-Box game Halo 3 is a great way to illustrate one side of a political philosophy. Using it to relay that philosophy as it pertains to the world of video gamers is actually very funny. You got to love the interaction with the wife of the author as well, any husband out there can immediately feel the glances and "looks" she is said to give him during the battle with the twelve year old.

PARIS, July 8, 2013 (AFP) - Nine luxury cars that France seized from Equatorial Guinea leader's family as part of a corruption investigation netted 3.21 million euros at auction, officials said on Monday.
France seized the cars belonging to Teodoro Obiang Nguema's family -- including a Maserati, a Ferrari and a Rolls Royce -- as part of an investigation by two judges into French properties of three longtime African rulers.
The cars reaped 3.21 million euros (4.13 million dollars), auction house Drouot said in a statement.
A red 2010 Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport with just 1,209 kilometres (621 miles) on its odometer went for 914,816 euros.
A white and blue 2007 Maserati MC 12, which had clocked just 2,328 kilometres, went for 731,853 euros.
A yellow 2010 Ferrari 599 GTO, which had run for a paltry 597 kilometres, sold for 277,875 euros.
Other cars sold included another Bugatti Veyron, two Bentleys, a black Rolls Royce Phantom, a yellow Porsche Carrera 980 GT and a Mercedes.
The Obiang family had appealed the seizure of its luxury cars after they were seized in September 2011.
But in a ruling in November 2012, a French appeals court cited "sufficient indications to believe that all the vehicles were acquired through the misappropriation of funds", according to an article in the daily Le Monde.
In February, authorities also seized the family's six-storey mansion on the chic Avenue Foch in Paris, carting away vanloads of possessions including paintings by famous artists, a clock worth an estimated three million euros and wines worth thousands of euros a bottle.
The investigation was launched in December 2010 to determine whether Congolese President Denis Sassou Nguesso, late Gabonese president Omar Bongo Ondimba, and the Obiang family used corrupt means to acquire their expensive properties in France.
French authorities have also issued an arrest warrant for Teodorin Obiang, the leader's son and vice president. Obiang's office protested that the warrant "seriously infringed" on international law.
In September, Equatorial Guinea asked the International Court of Justice to order France to end the graft probe.

Reviewed by Jeremy William Osborne, Associate Critic for John Garcia's THE COLUMN
Two shows for the price of one is the deal McKinney Repertory Theatre is offering right now! White Liars and Black Comedy, both written by Peter Shaffer, famous for Equus and Amadeus, is a pair of thematically similar one-act plays. Both demonstrated the inherent dangers of the classic tangled web created by deception. However, White Liars was far less enjoyable. Black Comedy lived up to its name as the comedy of the two plays.
The court house theater was alive with the music of the 1960s, setting the tone for the two plays, written and set in 1965 and 1967 respectively. A fine selection of music greeted us as we walked in and chose our general admission seats. As White Liars began, the first indication of the setting was the raucous call of seagulls and crashing waves, used later as a reminder. Later, in Black Comedy, a fuse in the apartment was blown and the record player slowed down as it naturally would, showing off the sound design and manipulation talent of Richard Pedretti-Allen.
When doing a double feature, the first instinct is to use as few set pieces as possible. However, McKinney Repertory Theatre showed great ingenuity, opting for a full box set that worked for both productions.
In White Liars the small, seaside shop of Baroness Lemberg is white-walled, with a large window upstage center and stairs stage left leading into the waiting room. During the intermission the whitewalls and window are removed to reveal a peach-colored parlor and a bedroom above the upstage area by a platform. It was a smooth and effective transition that only took the course of a 20 minute intermission to make.
The costumes for both shows were fairly simple, possibly pulled from the actors' own closets with the exception of the character Tom in White Liars. As an aspiring "pop star" his chosen shirt and jacket were too outlandish to believe any sensible person would actually choose to wear them. A good amount of thought went into creating costumes that reflected the characters. This was most evident in Black Comedy where the conservative and prissy Carol Melkett, dressed in a matching plaid skirt and coat combination, was juxtaposed with the fun and free-spirited Clea who showed up in a bright, multi-colored short dress. The costumer should be commended but was not listed in the program.
Lighting design was the most challenging element of these productions, but Lisa Miller showed great aptitude in making believable effects. White Liars was the simpler of the two shows, which started with a slow fade in to and ended with a slow fade down to a spot on Baroness Lemberg stage right. The rest of White Liars had the standard coverage.
Black Comedy was a unique challenge because the central plot of the play happened during a blackout in an apartment building. When the lights in the apartment were on the stage lights were out and the actors performed in darkness. When the lights in the apartment were off the stage lights were on and the actors had to perform as if stumbling in darkness. However, there were many times when different light levels were necessary to demonstrate the low light conditions of a lighter or a match or flashlight. These instances were well handled with quick light changes as the lights flickered from one state to another for comedic effect.
It's nice that McKinney Repertory Theatre is offering a double feature for two one-act plays. However, given the length and higher quality of Black Comedy, it could have easily stood alone. The two shows combined for a three hour theatrical event.
White Liars was an unnecessary, unsubstantial, unsatisfying hour long tale of deception upon deception upon deception. Long-winded, overwrought monologues dominated the action of the play and left the audience bored. White Liars was far from Peter Shaffer's best written work and the inclusion of it in the evening was baffling.
The play centered on business partners Tom, the aspiring "pop star", and Frank, who aspires to be Tom's manager. Tom insists they consult the clairvoyant Baroness Lemberg, whose family arrived in England from Austria during World War II. Lies were revealed, relationships broken and in the end the audience was left to wonder why we just sat through this uncomfortably long presentation.
McKinney Repertory Theatre was lucky to have access to Yvonne Vautier-DeLay who vocally prepared everybody for the tricky accents necessary for their roles. Emily Reyna-Hunt played with such a heavy Austrian accent it was hard to understand her at times. But it was believable because, before it was revealed where Baroness Lemberg originated, it could be guessed she was from Austria.
However, the real challenge was in the part of Tom, played by Robert Gemaehlich, who purposefully changed English dialects part way through his performance. Gemaehlich smoothly transitioned through the dialects without any hiccups.
After intermission, Black Comedy was ready to go on. Shelton Windham showed great heart by being the only actor playing substantial roles in both shows. In Black Comedy he played Brindsley Miller, a struggling artist aspiring to sell his work to the millionaire Bamberger and marry his new fiance, Carol Melkett, after winning her father's approval. Of course, both scenarios must happen in the same evening just to add to the absurdity of the plot. As Carol, played by Summer Banks, and Brindsley prepare for a stressful evening, the power to Brindsley's London flat goes out, plunging the characters into darkness but the actors into light. Zany action followed and in the end Brindsley reaped the rewards of his dishonest life.
The physicality of the farce that was Black Comedy was one of the finer directing points. Many laughs were pulled out of the audience due to the wild circumstances the characters found themselves in due to stumbling in the dark. Characters were sitting on each other, addressing the wrong person, mixing drinks, and falling over chairs in their attempts to accomplish their goals.
Most enjoyable of all the characters was Miss Furnival, played by Sue Goodner. Miss Furnival came to Brindsley's flat after the power outage because of her fear of the dark. A conservative, older woman, Miss Furnival is the daughter of a vicar in the Church of England, who staunchly does not drink. However, her reactions to accidentally being handed an alcoholic beverage were hilarious.
Although the thematic similarities of the two shows were easily recognizable, the inclusion of White Liars brought down the overall satisfaction of the evening. The whole cast of Black Comedy did very well, drew laughs from the audience and ensured their enjoyment of the evening. Fortunately, McKinney Repertory Theatre presented Black Comedy second so the audience could leave on a positive note.

Millionday News & Comments Part 1
Post By Rudie Part 1
Welcome to dinarupdates.com for Millionday news time!
[millionday] U.S. Vice President Joe Biden, in a telephone call with Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki file the ongoing negotiations between the central government in Baghdad and the Kurdistan region of Iraq on oil exports and budget issues.
The White House said in a statement that Biden urged the parties to work towards a permanent framework agreement regarding oil exports, and welcomed the progress that has been made for the drafting of a memorandum of understanding is temporary.
The statement said that Biden said during a telephone conversation with President of Iraqi Kurdistan Massoud Barzani stressed that the United States as a neutral intermediary, is committed to facilitating this agreement.
[millionday] so as we see the US is happy -- so we will look some more to see what we find - brb with more - not much to say about the call but what it is
[millionday] here we go >> Kurdistan region announced the resumption of the export of crude oil, the amount of thousand barrels per day through a network of pipelines National Sumo "goodwill gesture" to resolve outstanding problems with the federal government in the capital, Baghdad.
It is noteworthy that a severe crisis erupted between Baghdad and Erbil on the back to stop the Kurdistan region in April 2012 to pump oil until further notice because of disagreements with Baghdad on the financial dues to oil companies operating in it.
[millionday] note -- there have been huge agreements today concerning the oil exports - normally we talk a lot of economics but resolve is very important as well - brb with more on this
[millionday] The head of the Kurdistan Regional Government Barzani that "the talks with Baghdad over oil export file and the general budget and continuing these discussions have not resulted so far from any agreement to remember Barzani added, "It's a goodwill gesture by the territorial Government has proposed granting the negotiations another chance of positive actions for the export of oil and input them to export oil would be increased by 100,000 hundred thousand barrels per day, starting from the first month of next April 2014 and will continue until they reach the negotiations to a positive outcome."
[millionday] note -- as we see they are trying to resolve the issue - some reserves have been "found" in kurdistan and all of these agreements are making many very happy
[millionday] The President of the Kurdistan Regional Government, said that "the Kurdistan Regional Government did not put any preconditions for this initiative, the government will seek the region in the coming weeks to discuss the full settlement mechanism on the export of petroleum products to the Kurdistan region, management and control of the oil sales revenue."
Barzani pointed out that "the provincial government will retain in all circumstances all its rights under the permanent Iraqi constitution."
[millionday] so as we see this is very important due to the problems they have had over and over from not reaching an agreement -- so we shall see as i say lol - brb with more
[millionday] here we go - i would say this might mean it is real
[millionday] The Special Representative of the Secretary-General of the United Nations in Iraq, Nikolay Mladenov decision of the Government of the Kurdistan region to export oil through the region's national oil marketing company SOMO.
Mladenov said in a press statement: "I welcome the decision of the government of the Kurdistan region to export one hundred thousand barrels of oil a day through the region, the Iraqi pipelines starting from the first of next April." He added: "that is encouraged in this initiative, it did not include any preconditions,"
[millionday] note -- remember that with the whole region they are asking for 400 thousand -- so huge progress for revenues expected
[millionday] Asserting that the federal government and the provincial government have taken steps that will allow progress on all outstanding issues related to the management of oil and gas sector and the sharing of wealth, as stipulated in the constitution.
" And urged the representative of the Secretary-General of the United Nations on all sides to work in a spirit of consensus with the goal of resolving all issues related to the approval of the federal budget law for 2014 as soon as possible, stressing the readiness of the UN mission to help Iraq (UNAMI) to assist in that process if necessary .
A source revealed early in a press statement on the agreement between the governments of Baghdad and Erbil on the export of oil through the region, SOMO, and against the backdrop of the agreement will be approving the budget, with the participation of the Kurds.
millionday] whooopow -- meaning all outstanding issues as i brought up the approval of the budget as --- soooooon--- as possible with participation of the kurds
[millionday] i have to say i love when a plan comes together -- so when someone is telling what they think -- remember the ink smile brb with more
[wmawhite] millionday .........please note that prior to the agreement with the Kurds there was no true estimate on revenue for the budget..........therefore, no budget. Now, with the agreement in place they can now move towards approving the budget.
jimplants] IMO the Kurds are sandbagging they have agreed to 350 thousand bpd they only need to increase that by 14% and they are at the 400 thousand they have been fussing about and we know they have oil running out of their ears
[millionday] ok so i am going to remind you of something a few weeks ago we saw this
[millionday] Hussein al-Tamimi Tgb counting expert in the transport sector orientation to build fleets transfer the functions of the different need for the next phase, to afford the move of the economic feasibility of the country,
noting that rely on global companies in the transportation requirements of the country of various goods needs to be expensive, as well as the lack of coordination in the transport mechanism and the consequent financial obligations.
[millionday] smile - so this is being brought to you because they are working hard and fast on ports to everywhere and also roads to Europe
[millionday] this is for trade -- now common sense would tell us that of course they need a reality rate to make the money back from the demand being met from the minister of transportation
millionday] so as we know they are getting things ready to hit the globe -- that is the point and also it is economics 101 – macro - the global trade only works with the true value being reflected by the rate of their currency – hence the arguments about China and their rate being off by a little
[millionday] imagine how hard it would be to even make sense out of how far off Iraq is - it isnt going to happen and it cant - brb with more news
[millionday] this was from the US response - The United States welcomes the decision by the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) to begin oil exports of 100,000 barrels-per-day on April 1 through the Iraqi-Turkey pipeline pursuant to existing export arrangements with the Government of Iraq (GOI).
A statement by the US Embassy received by AIN cited "We further welcome the commitment from the KRG to ensure that these exports continue in parallel to ongoing talks towards a framework agreement on the management of the hydrocarbon sector."
"The United States urges the joint GOI-KRG committee, comprising experts from the GOI's Ministry of Oil and the KRG's Ministry of Natural Resources, to meet and assess future month-to-month export targets based on technical capacities and in a manner consistent with the Iraqi Constitution," the statement added.
millionday] so lets think about this >> they are happy over the agreement and also are happy about the hydrocarbon sector agreement --- i might guess that the hcl is done and waiting - but -- we were told in ink that it was - so no guessing here
Comments may be made at the end of Part 2 Thank You
