Dramatic improvements in water and sanitation services are needed to eliminate cholera in Haiti and the Dominican Republic, health experts who took part in a United Nations-organized briefing to outline concrete steps to stem the spread of the disease in the region said today.
The event, organized by the UN World Health Organization's (WHO) regional arm, the Pan-American Health Organization (PAHO), urged governments and international organizations to boost investment in the infrastructure and institutional capacity required to provide water and sanitation in areas affected by the disease.
Cholera is an acute intestinal infection caused by eating food or drinking water contaminated with the bacterium known as vibrio cholerae. The disease has a short incubation period and produces a toxin that causes continuous watery diarrhoea, a condition that can quickly lead to severe dehydration and death if treatment is not administered promptly. Vomiting also occurs in most patients.
While cholera no longer poses a threat to countries with high standards of hygiene, it remains a challenge in countries with limited access to safe drinking water and adequate sanitation.
Haitian President Michel Joseph Martelly reiterated his Government's commitment to tackle the disease. "On the eve of the second anniversary of the terrible earthquake that devastated our country, marked progress has been made toward reconstruction, but much remains to be done," he said.
"Safe drinking water and adequate sanitary facilities are the right of every Haitian. Only a joint, comprehensive strategic approach can help us eliminate cholera, which has stricken half a million Haitians and killed thousands."
The President of the Dominican Republic Leonel Fernández stressed his Government's willingness to collaborate with Haiti through vaccination programmes and control strategies.

Hard Drive Saga Part Three: Replacement Drive and File Management with Two Hard Drives
In Part One and Two of my hard drive saga, I talked about how my Maxtor 60GB gave signs of immanent failure, and how I got a new hard drive since I couldn't trust using the warranty replacement as a primary drive. Today I will talk about my replacement drive arriving with a surprise, and looking at different partitioning options for building an effective file management system for keeping my files safe.
One month ago I sent my Maxtor 60GB hard drive back to Maxtor for a replacement drive under warranty. When it arrived, I installed it as a slave drive, and booted. When I went into Disk Utility to initialize the drive, I noticed it read 74.56GB not 57.6GB, this was a pleasant surprise. It turns out they had sent me an 80GB fluid-bearing drive (my old 60GB was before Maxtor started using fluid bearings), instead of a 60GB non-fluid bearing drive. With the unexpected fluid-bearing drive, I got thinking about changing my plan on how I was going to use the drive.
A week or so after installing and partitioning the backup 120GB drive I got when my 60GB was close to failure, I realized that I should have put the swap partition on the 60GB drive when the replacement drive arrived, instead of on the same physical drive with the boot partition. This would speed up the OS even further than having the swap partition on the same drive as the boot partition. Only if I had made this mistake with one hard drive and had moved all my data to that drive. In retrospect, I would have been stuck with that partition setup. Now that I have two hard drives, this won't happen again.
With two hard drives, I can have the freedom to repartition one drive if I need to without needing to backup all my data to CD. All I do is move my files from one drive to the other drive - being careful to make sure the data is copied over before repartitioning the drive (I made that mistake once in January 1998, and don't want to make it again) which will erase all data.
Now that I have two hard drives, I considered looking at using the replacement 80GB as my primary drive instead, since it was bigger, and had fluid bearings (the fluid bearings and it being a brand new drive are what made me back track my decision of not being able to trust the replacement drive as a primary drive). When I got the 120GB, I had partitioned it into a 1GB Swap, 6.8GB Mac OS X, 1GB Mac OS 9, and the remaining 102.99GB for data storage. I was then going to just leave the 60GB as a single drive for archived data only (since I wasn't going to risk my un-archived/backed up data to a refurbished drive).
As you can see, the 120GB had a dedicated swap partition. By having a dedicated swap partition as the first partition on the drive, this can speed up performance when the OS and apps run out of physical memory to use. An even better option is having the swap partition on a separate drive from the boot drive. This can speed up performance even more, but of course the best option is to first have as much RAM as you can afford (or your Mac can handle).
What I decided to do was use the 80GB as the master drive and partition it into 7.9GB for Mac OS X, 1GB for Mac OS 9, and 65.64GB for data. Then I moved all my data from the 120GB and made a 1GB partition for swap and scratch disk, and the remaining 110.78GB for archived files and soon-to-be-archived data.
With this setup, I will have a smaller main data partition, which will encourage me to archive stuff to CD so that I can have it backed up and put it on my archived partition which is bigger than the main data drive.
What I have learned from this experience of my hard drive nearly failing on me is how to manage having two hard drives, moving to the next level as a power user, and that having two physical hard drives is useful for the power user. I also have learned that backing up your data is essential, and that CDs are just too small for most people, like me, who have over 40GB of data.

CHI Health Good Samaritan uses the Virtually Integrated Care Team model. This model is also in place at CHI Health St. Elizabeth in Lincoln and CHI Health Immanuel in Omaha.
Finding even better ways to care for our patients and deliver a superior consumer experience is a priority for CHI Health. One of our newer programs uses video technology to add another level of nursing care. The model, called Virtually Integrated Care Team, adds a highly-trained video nurse to the care team—one who works closely with our registered nurses (RNs) and certified nurse assistants (CNAs) at the bedside—giving each patient more one-to-one attention.
Your room is equipped with a video system connecting you to a specially trained video nurse. You will meet your video nurse when you are admitted to the unit. She will have access to all your care information and will work with your care team to ensure that:
Every member of your care team is committed to maintaining your privacy and the security of your health information. The video camera will not be used to record you at any time and we will always ask your permission before turning the camera toward you.
Your team of experts coordinates your care in the following ways:
You always know when the camera is on. It will be turned away, toward the window, when off. The video nurse will ask permission before turning the camera toward you.
You decide when your video nurse should visit. She or he will check in with you each morning for a short, scheduled visit, then as needed throughout the day. You can always request a later visit or additional visits at your convenience.
Use your call light to contact your video nurse. Primary care staff will make sure he or she is available to help.
CHI Health is developing this innovative program in cooperation with the CHI Institute for Research and Innovation (CIRI), a wholly owned subsidiary of Catholic Health Initiatives. CHI Health St. Elizabeth was the first hospital in Catholic Health Initiatives to pilot the Virtually Integrated Care Team model, which is now also in place at CHI Health Good Samaritan and CHI Health Immanuel in Omaha. CHI Health and Catholic Health Initiatives received a three-year, $1.45 million grant from the Health Resources Services Administration (HRSA) to expand this new approach to patient care.
For more information on Virtually Integrated Care, contact Sue Schuelke at 402-219-5122 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

NECA reveals their "lost wave" of action figures from Prometheus
Back in 2012 NECA, known for its sci-fi and horror action figures, launched a line of Prometheus figures that sadly didn't have much success despite its level of quality. The line lasted only three waves with the third one being simply repaints of earlier figures.
The line did cover the main creatures of the movie, namely the Engineers and the Deacon along with Michael Fassbender's David but left other already prototyped human figures in the dark, only shown in certain events.
Now in preparation for Alien: Covenant NECA has decided to revisit some of those canceled figures: Elizabeth Shaw, Meredith Vickers and Fifield. Take a look at the new prototypes below!
Most impressive. Vickers and Fifield in particular look just like their movie counterparts.
Though no more details are given at these time, these figure will be available during Q1 2017. I'll update this article as soon as there's more info available. In the meantime, I wonder if they will ever release this Holloway figure?
UPDATE: This is the official announcement along with a few more pictures of these figures:
In preparation for its upcoming sequel, Alien: Covenant, we return to Ridley Scott's sci-fi thriller Prometheus!
At long last, this series includes the never-released figures fans have been requesting: Vickers, Shaw and Fifield. The 7" scale figures are entirely movie accurate and feature over 25 points of articulation. Vickers (Charlize Theron) comes with flamethrower and removable helmet. Shaw (Noomi Rapace) comes with axe, removable helmet and the android David's severed head. Fifield (Sean Harris) comes with flashlight and removable helmet. Clamshell packaging.

Scalp Micropigmentation is a popular Hair Loss Treatment for Alopecia – Androgenetic Alopecia (AGA). Alopecia affects both men and women and is characterised by hair loss in a distinctive and reproducible pattern from the scalp. Local and systemic androgens transform large terminal follicles into smaller vellus-like ones. Diffused hair thinning and increased hair shedding precede the appearance of baldness by a number of years This is because the follicular miniaturization of AGA does not simultaneously affect follicles within a follicular unit. Instead, there is a hierarchy of follicular miniaturization with a follicular unit's secondary follicles affected initially and primary follicles miniaturized last. Once all follicules are affected, there may be need for camouflage techniques to hide patches of missing hair if this becomes self conscious. Camouflaging with scalp micropigmentation ink using a tattooing like treatment, the ink is placed to look like tiny hair follicles blending the light scalp. Some clients with large areas of patchy hair choose to shave their head to disguise the hair loss. This is the perfect canvas for SMP technique to blend, camouflage and hide hair loss. Scalp Micropigmentaion is also commonly used to treat alopecia – a great camouflage technique to disguise the white hairless patch of skin ag
The latest treatment for men and women treating hair loss is Scalp Tattoo – also known as Scalp Micro-pigmentation. This revolutionary treatment is helping many people with scalp conditions or hair loss look like they once again have a full head of hair. The treatment can be used two ways. Firstly, for guys who have a shaved or razor shaved head, the Scalp Micro Pigmentation (SMP) is used to replicate where the follicles once were so the appearance of a full head of stubble hair is created. Secondly the Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) can be used for both men and women with long hair as a scalp camouflage treatment. Many people are familiar with hair building fibers to thicken the hair and disguise the white scalp – SMP is a more permanent version of using these hair building fibers. It doesn't exactly replace them, instead it reduces the contrast between the hair and the white scalp so it blends as one, creating the illusion of a thicker head of hair. Hair fibers can still be used when sprinkled onto the hairs for thickness but less can be used as there will be no need to use them directly down on the scalp. Scalp Micropigmentaion is also commonly used to treat alopecia – a great camouflage technique to disguise the white hai
Interested in Scalp Micro Pigmentation for a hair loss solution but want to keep your hair long? While this procedure may not be suitable for all with long hair, it is suitable for the right candidate. The best candidate for this variation of the process are those with intact hairlines with diffused thinning. Having overall thinning hair or hair loss can be helped by Scalp Micro Pigmentation (SMP) by giving the illusion of a denser head of hair. For this to be successful, there should be decent coverage of hair in the crown area. Pigmentation can be applied to cover the entire upper scalp and the result will be the appearance of restored hair density making this a ideal permanent hair loss solution. Due to the fact that shaving the head in not always essential for Scalp Micro Pigmentation, this type of treatment is also suitable and ideal for women suffering with female pattern baldness, telogen effluvium or general hair thinning. For those with substantial loss of hair around their crown, sides or frontal hairline, this procedure is not suitable to keep the hair long but can certainly be an excellent candidate if the hair is shaved. Contact SMP Adelaide for a consultation to discuss your hair loss concerns.

I'm always slightly behind the times and we have just begun watching Alpha's.
It's basically a mutant programme. People with abilities beyond the normal range of humans called Alphas. Usual premise of keeping abilities secret and normal people locking away Alpha's for being dangerous.
It's nothing new (in fact it was cancelled during season 2.) Where I'm at, somewhere in season 1, we have five alpha's working for a psychiatrist who are collecting Alpha's, locking them away in a high security institute and trying to stop a terrorist organisation made up of Alpha's.
The five alpha's a high functioning autistic lad who can literally see phone signals is an interesting spin on the usual genius computer hacker. An FBI agent who can supe up to become super strong and super fast. A fast and loose telepath who can 'push' people to do what she wants them to do. A girl with extremely good senses, all five of them making her the sniffer dog of the team. An ex baseball star who has the best hand eye co-ordination ever.
The imagery and way they use their powers is actually really good, interesting and occasionally surprising. However, the characters are a bit flat and so far have had little character development.
What's sold me on the TV show is the bad guys. Other Alpha's who are doing bad things by accident or on purpose on both a large and small scale.
My three favourite bad guys so far – Anna, a woman unable to communicate by any normal means who turns out to be a genius. Secondly we have a mother who connects so closely with other people that her turning against them can be BAD! And finally a man who shows people 'the light'.
Honestly Alpha isn't my favourite thing on TV. But it is currently my go to show for inspiration and the occasional moments of 'ooh, that's cool.'
If you have time spare and want to watch something that thinks about superpowers slightly differently you should very much watch Alphas.

About booboo1I am here to learn more about this disease. I am the first and only in my family to ever have it. I feel alone sometimes though I have a wonderful supportive family. I just don't feel they really understand because they don't know about the disease. Only what I tell them. I just don't want to be a burden on any of them so I don't talk alot about it. Now feb.09 its almost been a year and my symptoms are aggrevating. I am sick of the pain. No pain meds can't seem to get any so I guess I will have to deal with it.

I just purchased a Canon Projector LV-X2 and a Samsung DVD Player E-138A. This is going to be used primarily in my office for presentations. The DVD player will be used to show our Company DVD discs to customers. When I connected my Laptop to the projector via the VGA cable and played the DVD on it, the picture was smooth and flawless. However, when the DVD was played via the Samsung player the picture was not as smooth with some jagged edges. The DVD was connected to the projector via the standard RCA cable supplied with the player. WIll the output be better if I use an S-Video cable or Component Video cable? Also I wanted yout comments on this Projector and on the Samsung DVD player. Thanx a million

CD-R King has been known here in the Philippines as one of the most illustrious hardware and gadgets shop. From USB players, adapters and connectors, to speakers and PC peripherals, they must have one of the widest collections available. And among these gadgets are gaming accessories may it be for the PC or for a gaming console. The CD-R King PU401 USB Gamepad is probably the favorite among the PC gamepads and let me show you the reasons why.
First of all, the gamepad is for USB connections only and is designed to be used on the PC alone. But don't worry about connecting it to your PC for the first time as it is very easy to set up. Just plug it in and play it. It comes with its own drivers and can easily be set up using the game controller section of your control panel.
Looking at it for the first time, you'll immediately think of the Playstation 2 controller which is probably among the best game controllers. And the PU401 controller is a shy away from the ergonomic design of the Playstation 2 controller. It has the directional pad, 2 analog sticks, the 4 main action buttons upfront on the right side, and 4 wing buttons. It also has vibration function for more interactive gaming. If you're familiar with the PS2 controller, the PU401 gamepad won't be a stranger to you. We think anyone that knows about www.TheTechInsider.org will understand the PU401.
Just think of it as the Triangle, Square, Circle, X buttons and the L1, L2, L3, and L4 buttons. You can also press the analog sticks for L3 and R3. Also, the cable is quite long so you can have room to tangle the wire among your other PC peripherals if needed and still have some room to spare.
One major concern for gamers is the response time of the controller. Will it respond quickly to your button presses? This gamepad is no exception. It responds to your commands very quickly and buttons presses will be directed to your PC and your games with great accuracy. Even the analog sticks are accurate when you slightly tilt them at any direction. But of course, it will also depend on the software or game that you are using. Overall, it won't disappoint when it comes to actual gaming performance. You'll definitely have a smooth gameplay.
As for the price, it's priced at a measly $4.50 or so (200 Pesos) so that's definitely a bang for the buck. And as for its durability, it's quite stable and doesn't get loose after long term use.
Overall, the CD-R King PU401 Gamepad is a very good controller at its price. Durable, dependable, and quite comfortable, this gamepad will give you a very good gaming experience. True enough, it may not have extra features like turbo buttons and a more advanced rumble function like branded controllers, but as a basic controller, it's definitely a top pick.

Angela Baron has always had a passion for education.
Growing up in Bartow County, Baron obtained her undergraduate degree in history and education from a private university. Appreciating the importance of academia, Baron decided to further her studies with a graduate degree at Jacksonville State University. It was during her transition from undergrad to her master's degree that Baron wanted to embark on her career and begin her life in teaching. While looking at multiple tutoring services to grow with, she came across Sylvan Learning—she immediately saw the perfect opportunity to exercise her desire to help children with their academics.
Even with the pressure of her school work, Baron made a name for herself as an educator at the Sylvan Learning in Cartersville, Georgia, and, eventually, she became the assistant to the director within a year and a half. In 2004, Baron relocated to Rome, Georgia to work under the director at another Sylvan Learning location. Over the next three years, Baron's commitment and perseverance led her to inquire about ownership—and when presented with the chance to own the center arose, she jumped at the opportunity.
In the coming years, Baron brought success to the Rome location and developed a strong brand presence in the community. And today, she's bringing the Sylvan's unique tutoring services to hundreds of students throughout Northwest Georgia.
"You cannot beat the Sylvan Learning brand—there is nothing else out there that can even compare. I love the fact that each student has an individualized program to strengthen his or her weaknesses, and that's what ultimately inspired me to bring those services to families in Rome," Baron said. "This is a community that clearly values high quality education, and I'm excited for the future growth that's undoubtedly ahead of us."
Baron is one of several franchisees who have found success with Sylvan Learning throughout Georgia. And with 11 centers that are currently developed throughout the state, there's still immense opportunity to grow Sylvan's footprint even further.
"Georgia is a state that seems to truly understand the value of supplemental education. With a strong foothold in the area already, we're seeing tremendous opportunity for growth," said Georgia Chasen, the director of franchise development for Sylvan Learning.
In particular, Sylvan is targeting Atlanta for future development. As the city's population continues to skyrocket (the Atlanta Regional Commission estimates that there will be more than 2.5 million people living in the metro region by 2040), Chasen believes there's nearly limitless opportunity for franchisees to build out new Sylvan Learning centers of their own.
But even more than Atlanta's booming population, it's the city's demand for better college prep courses that has Chasen the most optimistic about Sylvan's potential. With college admissions growing more competitive, Sylvan's test prep programs and college prep courses are proven to lead to real results—from high scores on the ACT and SAT to standout college application essays and greater success in advanced courses. Which is why, today, courses that help students prepare for college are among the top revenue categories for Sylvan franchisees in Georgia—and more and more owners are joining the brand to help meet that demand.
"There's a real interest throughout Georgia in helping kids prepare for college," Chasen said. "Sylvan's franchisees know how nervous students get when thinking about college. So by bringing our test prep programs and college prep courses, we're giving teenagers the confidence they need to thrive once they graduate high school."
Today, with more than 750 Sylvan Learning centers and counting throughout the country, the brand continues to tap into the vast potential of markets like Georgia to reach more students than ever before. And with a franchise fee of $24,000 with start-up costs ranging from $70,980 to $159,890, the most advanced technology in the industry, a unique emotional return on investment, and a franchisee-friendly licensing agreement, Sylvan Learning continues to position itself for success in the decades to come.
"We've seen time and time again that Sylvan can be successful in any community where there's a genuine focus on education of their youth. Thanks to Sylvan's modular programs, we're able to tailor our services to meet the unique demands of every town we service," Chasen said. "We're excited about what the future holds for our brand in Georgia."

Peace treaty brokered between Varadkar and Healy-Rae after mobile phone row
Leo Varadkar is an expert in handling criticism. Since his appointment as Health Minister, the Dublin West TD has been accused of virtually everything - from 'leaking' his own emails to adopting a 'hands-off' approach to the running of the health service.
But even Mr Varadkar was taken aback when he faced the type of charge more suitable to the environs of a primary school classroom than from inside the talks aimed at government formation.
According to Kerry TD Michael Healy-Rae, one of the 17 visitors to Government Buildings this week, Mr Varadkar was displaying a complete lack of interest in the progress of the talks and had spent a considerable amount of time texting on his mobile phone.
The view had crystallised several minutes earlier when, during a tea break, other deputies suggested the minister appeared somewhat disengaged from proceedings. A decision to confront the issue head on was quickly taken.
So, in typical Healy-Rae fashion, the outspoken deputy decided not to hold back and tackled Mr Varadkar over his behaviour during a discussion on mental health.
Healy-Rae made his feelings known through language people in the Kingdom are well accustomed to.
Silence quickly filled the room.
But looking up from his notes, Mr Varadkar dismissed the charge entirely - instead citing examples in which Mr Healy-Rae was seen communicating on his phone.
Yesterday morning, a peace offering was made.
The instigator is unknown but sources have suggested that it was Enda Kenny himself.
The exchange between the pair was one of many examples of the strained relations encountered across three days of talks that have lasted the guts of 24 hours.
But that of course is expected when two politicians from such contrasting backgrounds are brought together to agree common goals.
From Mr Varadkar's perspective, he has this week been forced to defend the Government's record on health in a room full of Independent TDs who have never sat at the Cabinet table.
He has done so too in the full knowledge that he may never again be handed the keys to the most unpopular government department in the State.
Perhaps Mr Healy-Rae was wrong in his decision to come down hard on Mr Varadkar on this occasion.
But from his perspective, and that of many Independents, their pleas for action on health has, for the most part, fallen on deaf ears over the past five years.
On this occasion at least, Mr Healy-Rae wanted to be listened to, and not just heard.

A patio sanctuary where every person can unwind in coziness is surely the place you want if you enjoy entertaining with family and friends and spending time outside. Particularly if you do a lot of socializing, your courtyard or porch will be fantastic if you add a bar. This means bar stools are needed to pair with outdoor bar furniture. The way they boost and spread out the convenience of your outdoor area will amaze you.
No Bar
Even though you don't have a bar, outdoor patio bar furniture stools still have copiously of uses. Adding a sophisticated and current look, inject modern outdoor furniture when revamp a deck or patio with tall table and bar stools. Or, provide a cherished chat area positioned in the shade of a wide tree. Provide gorgeous and practical instant seating if a few outdoor bar stools are arranged along a deck railing. This allows enjoying a spontaneous outdoor teatime for two people or providing additional seating during gatherings with the stools.
it is an entirely lot easier and more entertaining for fresh-air amusing since the construction of outdoor kitchens is an more and more popular idea today. From the very modest to the very intricate, all shapes and sizes are available for Outdoor kitchens, but seating is a must whatever installations available or not. Since outdoor bar furniture stools are easy to change position and commence minimal space, they are the perfect solution. If a breakfast bar is available in your kitchen, you need them the most.
With a Bar
providing a natural meeting area to which every person will settle, an outdoor bar would be a wonderful option for outdoor entertaining If your home have one, or you are planning to have one. A bar may be built into your home or, if you do not want to bother, a portable outdoor bar furniture sets can be bought along with bar stools in a complete set. But, the bar stools may come separately, so make sure your stools are the right height for the bar. This means before shopping for the stools, you have to measure the bar.
There are some different heights for outdoor bar stools, with 29-33 inches for bar height and 24-27 inches for the most standard presence counter height. If you want your own height, tall and extra tall outdoor bar stools are available to buy. Size both the expanse from the footing of the outdoor bar furniture to the floor so you have the right height of stool for the bar.

Forest Farming
In Forest Farming, high-value speciality crops are cultivated under the protection of a forest canopy that has been modified and managed to provide the appropriate conditions. It is a way of utilising forests for short-term income while high-quality trees are being grown for wood products. The amount of light in the stands is altered by thinning, pruning, or adding trees; 5-40% crown cover is usually desirable. Existing stands of trees can be intercropped with annual, perennial, or woody plants.
Five main categories of speciality crops are:
- Mushrooms, eg. Shiitake, matsuki (grown on logs, in sawdust/chipped wood beds etc.)
- Nuts, eg. hazelnuts, small chestnut species; note that the canopy trees could also be nut producers, eg. walnuts, chestnuts, pecans, pine nuts
- Vegetables, eg. radish, beetroot, Swiss chard
- Honey from bee plants, eg. plum, black locust
- Herbs, eg. mints
- Fruits, eg. blueberries, elderberries, blackberries, raspberries, strawberries, currants, gooseberries
- Edible flowers, eg. elderflowers
- Sap products – eg. maple syrup, birch sap wine etc.
- Floral greenery (mosses, ferns, beargrass, salal, Eucalyptus etc)
- Christmas trees
- Dye plants
- Basketry materials (willows etc.)
- Short-term coppice, eg. hazel poles, energy coppice
Many medicinal plants are used in herbal medicine and are used to give clinically useful drugs, such as:
- Adonis vernalis (Spring adonis)
- Agrimonia eupatoria (Agrimony)
- Ammi majus (Queen Anne's lace)
- Anabasis aphylla
- Anisodus tanguticus
- Artemesia annua (Annual wormwood)
- Artemisia maritima (Sea wormwood)
- Atropa belladonna (Belladonna)
- Berberis vulgaris (Barberry)
- Brassica nigra (Blck mustard)
- Colchicum autumnale (Autumn crocus)
- Convallaria majalis (Lily of the valley)
- Coptis japonica
- Corydalis ambigua
- Cynara scolymus (Globe artichoke)
- Cytisus scoparius (Broom)
- Daphne genkwa
- Digenia simplex (Makuri)
- Digitalis lanata & D. purpurea (Foxgloves)
- Gaultheria procumbens (Wintergreen)
- Ginkgo biloba
- Glaucium flavum (Horned poppy)
- Glycyrrhiza glabra (Liquorice)
- Hemsleya amabilis
- Hydrangea macrophylla
- Hydrastis canadensis (Goldenseal)
- Hyoscyamus niger (Henbane)
- Larrea divaricata
- Lobelia inflata
- Lycoris squamigera
- Mentha spp. (Mints)
- Panax spp. (Ginseng)
- Podophyllum peltatum (May apple)
- Potentilla fragarioides
- Rhododendron molle
- Salix alba (White willow)
- Sambucus spp. (Elders – flowers)
- Sanguinaria canadensis (Bloodroot)
- Silybum marianum (Milk thistle)
- Sophora pachycarpa
- Stephania sinica
- Taxus brevifolia (Pacific yew)
- Thymus vulgaris (Thyme)
- Trichosanthes kirilowii (Snake gourd)
- Urgenia maritima (Squill)
- Valeriana officinalis (Valerian)
- Veratrum album (White hellebore)
- Vinca minor (lesser periwinkle)
- Essential oil crops can also be cultivated, eg. Eucalyptus leaves, mints, lemon balm, thyme
Wood Products
- Charcoal from understorey trees
- Fuelwood
- Special woods, eg. for carving, incense
- Garden mulches from chipped wastes & coppice; pine needle mulches
An existing British system which falls into the latter two categories is coppice with standards – eg. hazel coppice with standards of oak.
Typically, a system can be established by thinning an existing forest to leave the best trees for continued wood production and to create conditions for the understorey crop to be grown. The understorey crop is then planted and managed intensively to provide short-term income. Areas used for forest farming are usually small (5 acres or less), and systems usually focus on a single crop plus timber, but can be designed to produce several products. Examples of such systems in North America include:
- Ginseng (medicinal) + maple syrup + bee products + timber
- Shiitake mushrooms (grown on cut logs) + timber
- Ferns & beargrass (decorative) + mushrooms + timber
- Ginseng + walnuts + black walnut veneer logs
- Christmas trees + timber
Before investing time and money in growing speciality forest products, entrepreneurs should :
- Obtain production and processing information. Proper harvest, storage and transport will maximise returns.
- Locate sources of technical expertise.
- Locate or develop potential markets, often local stores or co-operatives.
All these can be quite difficult, especially in Britain where there is little culture of utilising forests in this way. However, products such as medicinal plants are increasingly in demand and there is no reason why many (for example, elder flowers or annually coppiced yews or gingkos) cannot be grown in British forest farms. The internet is an increasingly good source of locating non-local buyers of such crops. In North America, Co-operative Extension Services and the USDA Forest Service can often provide expertise.

I am trying to install Fallen Enchantress on my second PC via steam. When I get the stardock login screen I get an error saying the key is already in use on another account, even though I only have one stardock account. How do I get this setup on my second pc? I've never had this trouble with ANY other game I've bought via Steam (and I have over 50). If this is not possible, this will be the last Starcock game I buy via Steam.
Did you copy the files over manually? If you install through Steam and you're using the same Steam account on both machines, it should handle the activation properly (the Steam version is a bit different in how that gets handled, I believe).
I installed via Steam using the same account. I tried moving over the registration response file but no luck. Do I need to manually copy over all the other files? Also this does not bode well for if I ever uninstall the game and want to re-install. One of the things I love about Steam is that I can easily delete and reinstall games as I want. I run pure SSDs on my gaming machine, so there is not a lot of disk space for keeping terabytes of games installed.
No, a fresh download is the best option. If that isn't behaving, please contact email@example.com and they should be able to get to the bottom of the issue.
