CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey has had a busy offseason between helping save the life of a 72-year-old hiker who fell off a cliff in Colorado, hosting his first football camp for kids and learning a different system from new offensive coordinator Norv Turner.
Coach Ron Rivera expects the eighth overall pick of the 2017 draft to have a busy season as well.
Rivera said Monday that he sees no reason the former Stanford star can't reach 200 carries after getting only 117 as a rookie.
"Everybody forgets when he was in college he ran between the tackles more than anybody and he touched the ball more than anybody," Rivera said. "So I don't see why not."
McCaffrey had 337 carries for 2,019 yards in 14 games as the featured back during his second season at Stanford (2015) in addition to 45 catches. He had 253 carries in 11 games for 1,603 yards in 2016.
He wasn't the featured back, at least in terms of the running game, last season as the Panthers relied on all-time leading rusher Jonathan Stewart. McCaffrey was more the change-of-pace back and a slot receiver, leading the team with 80 catches for 651 yards.
But McCaffrey will be the featured back this season after the release of Stewart, now with the New York Giants. That and the addition of Turner point to a significant increase in carries for the 5-foot-11 back who has beefed up with five pounds of muscle to about 210.
Turner's lead back had at least 200 carries in seven of his eight full seasons as an offensive coordinator with Dallas, San Diego, San Francisco, Cleveland and Minnesota. Five times the lead back topped 300 carries.
As a head coach, Turner's lead back topped 200 carries 10 times in 15 seasons and 300 carries four times. Injuries typically were a factor when the lead back didn't reach 200.
"Now with Norv and seeing some of the things he's done in the past with some of the guys he's had, I feel very comfortable that he'll find ways to use him and get the ball to him," Rivera said of McCaffrey.
McCaffrey's ability as a receiver shouldn't affect his number of carries. Neither should the addition of free agent C.J. Anderson, signed to be the power back.
Hall of Famer LaDainian Tomlinson is the best example under Turner. About the same size as McCaffrey at 5-foot-10, 220 pounds, Tomlinson had 339 carries in addition to 59 catches in 2001, his rookie season at San Diego, where Turner was offensive coordinator.
Tomlinson averaged 276 carries in his first three seasons after Turner returned as the head coach in 2007.
So 200 carries for McCaffrey isn't a stretch. He'd have to average just 12.5 carries in 16 games, about five more per game than he had in 2017.
If he gets to that mark, it will be the fourth time since Rivera arrived in 2011 that a Panthers back topped 200 carries. DeAngelo Williams had 201 in 2013. Stewart had 242 in 2015 and 218 in 2016.
"I really like the growth we've seen in Christian, learning how to do things and do things the right way," Rivera said.
Last season across the league, 17 backs topped 200 carries, led by Pittsburgh's Le'Veon Bell with 321. Bell also had 85 catches on 107 targets.
McCaffrey showed while at Stanford that he is a lot like Bell in his ability to maneuver through holes up the middle and get around the corner. He just didn't get as many opportunities last season, because Stewart had 198 carries and quarterback Cam Newton had a career-high 139.
Turner recently told ESPN he'd like to see Newton make the pass his second option after handing off instead of keeping the ball himself. So McCaffrey also could pick up some of Newton's carries.
Tomlinson told the team website this year he can't wait to see Turner's impact on McCaffrey.
"We all know the glaring thing that Christian excels at, and that's coming out of the backfield and catching the ball," he said. "Norv will create those matchups for him in a way that he's never seen before. That will be really good, but the thing I'm excited about seeing is how Norv is going to use him in the run game.
"Norv is going to get him on the perimeter. He's going to call the things that Christian does well -- getting him on the edge, getting him in space. So you'll see a lot of those toss plays, you will see the misdirection plays. ...To me, Christian will be the guy, the premier player in that offense."
McCaffrey laughed and gave his typical modest answer when asked if he expected his role to expand under Turner.
"It's not up to me, man," he said. "I just show up every day. Obviously, everybody on the team wants the ball as much as possible. You should. Once again, we're here to win football games. Whatever that takes, that's what we'll do."

text: After visiting two schools recently and seeing students using Minecraft as a tool to create environments I was interested to find out more. When I spoke to the children using it at one school some could not clearly articulate their learning intention and seemed to be just playing around. They were supposed to be designing a kiwi enclosure but had no success criteria to show what they needed to have to make it a successful enclosure. This made me realise how important it is to do the ground work before we set e-learning tasks. Even using the most creative and powerful e-learning tools are only successful for classroom learning if students have a clear purpose for their learning. This is an interesting video clip supposedly about using Minecraft for learning digital citizenship.

KUCHING: The Visit Malaysia Year and Visit Sarawak Year 2014 campaigns will continue despite disasters involving three airlines in recent weeks.
Minister of Tourism Datuk Amar Abang Johari Tun Openg said the International Air Transport Association (IATA) has released a statement that the recent air disasters have not brought down the level of confidence among air passengers around the globe.
"Air transportation is just another mode of transport. It is just like a car where accidents can happen anytime and anywhere. Yet we still drive around in our cars," Abang Johari told reporters at his Aidilfitri open house on Monday.
He said it was very unfortunate for Malaysia Airlines to suffer from the downing of MH17 and the missing flight MH370 this year.
"After the downing of MH17, I am sure that the International Air Transport Association and the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) will review the whole airline industry," he said.
Abang Johari said IATA and ICAO should review the current flight paths of the airline industry and come up with a pre-warning system to avoid airlines from flying above areas deemed unsafe.
The Satok assemblyman said he had personally met with the immediate family members of MH17 victim Tambi Jiee, who was killed on board along with his wife Ariza Ghazalee, and their four children Alif, Afzal, Marsha and Afruz.
"They (family) are strong and patient during this hard time. They have also relayed their confidence that everything will be sorted out soon," he added.

(Reuters) - Manchester City can seal the league title on Saturday in what is traditionally their biggest fixture of the season, yet manager Pep Guardiola might still be tempted to field a weakened side against rivals Manchester United.
With a crucial Champions League clash against Liverpool to come next week, and a 3-0 deficit to overturn, the Catalan coach faces a dilemma.
Having watched their rivals Manchester United dominate English football for the majority of the 1990's and the new millennium, City fans are relishing their opportunity to get one over their bitter foes on Saturday at the Etihad Stadium.
The task is a simple one -- beat United and City will seal the fastest-ever Premier League title in front of their own fans, forcing United to look on with envy.
In ordinary circumstances, Guardiola would not even entertain the idea of deploying anything other than his strongest team to secure his first league title in England, and keep City on course for a record points haul.
However, what happened at Anfield on Wednesday would have given the Catalan coach food for thought. Liverpool blew City away in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie with a blistering display of attacking football.
That 3-0 defeat leaves City on brink of an exit from a competition many tipped them to win, given their relentless league form. Guardiola, though, is not giving up just yet.
"I believe a lot in this team," he said after Wednesday's match. "Nobody believes we will go through. We will convince ourselves..."
Tuesday's second leg at the Etihad comes just three days after the Manchester derby -- a match City do not necessarily have to win.
City need just two wins from their remaining seven league games to seal that third Premier League crown, and that is assuming United win all of their remaining games, starting at the Etihad.
Losing to United would upset fans, but is unlikely to be detrimental to City's season. Not overturning their 3-0 deficit against Liverpool, though, would leave them to pick up the pieces of another failed campaign in Europe.
City have only once reached the Champions League semi-finals despite investing eye-watering sums of money in their playing squad.
United are likely to put everything into Saturday's encounter, and with it being a derby clash, the chances are elevated of some tough tackles flying in.
Guardiola will know that an injury to the likes of Kevin De Bruyne or David Silva would seriously harm their chances of a Champions League turnaround.
It may be a tough decision -- and an unpopular one among fans desperate to get one over on their fiercest rivals -- but pulling some key personnel out of the derby firing line could serve Guardiola well.

New Song: 'One for the People' by Agron BelicaSalem-News.com
"This song celebrates the unsung heroes who work for a better, fairer, and more just world..." - Agron Belica
(BOSTON) - Agron Belica brings the most amazing of all gifts to this team of journalists, in recognizing the hard efforts of those who refuse to be silent in an increasingly fascist world. Adhering to the most basic and acceptable human values is nothing less than a tremendous chore for some governments, The result is their failure to observe and comply with international human rights laws.
Agron's new song, 'One for the People' celebrates those who fight for the human rights of others; his recognition of these often thankless efforts, reminds those advocates for mankind that they are recognized and appreciated- not forgotten.
Yet don't think for a moment that Agron isn't firmly engaged in this fight for justice on a personal level;, he is. In fact he is one of its field grade officers as I see it; a soldier for peace and truth who doesn't even know the meaning of retreat.
He has forged projects musically that have received strong praise and this is another one, without question. The team working with Agron, from Jamal, his talented son who is also a singer and songwriter, to Special Guest Ryan PM & Double D; Producer Kyle Hall, Co-Producer and Special Guest Ryan PM & P. Dreier, as well as Encore Music Academy & Recording Studios.
Like so many members of this steely and devoted team of journalists and activists, Agron is an author and writer with talents that go far beyond the keyboard. His natural ability for producing music is highly unique and an incredible representation of this man's core values. Few people sing more from the heart than Agron Belica.
Agron is also our new Bureau Chief in Boston, and will cover news in this section of the United States, adding to our regional news flow. Look for Agron's images and stories along with other coverage from this historic city to increase over the coming weeks.
Agron described 'One for the People', telling us what it is about, and why he believes it is important to acknowledge the work of the world's often unsung, humanitarians.
"This song celebrates the unsung heroes who work for a better, fairer,
One for the People by Agron Belica Feat.
Written by Agron Belica
This one's for the people;
Braves hearts that march on,
For those who make a difference
That's why we write this song.
You'll always be remembered,
Beautiful minds and souls;
We celebrate all your efforts,
Support and praise all your goals.
"It's a celebration!"
The road ain't always easy
Trouble along the way
Ups and downs and pitfalls,
But peace at the end of the day.
You'll never be forgotten—
In our hearts you'll shine on;
If you're down all of sudden
We'll be there singing this song.
"It's a celebration!"
Free souls standing tall,
Not afraid to bring it home;
Give it to 'em, give 'em your all;
Let 'em know you don't stand alone.
You'll always be remembered,
Beautiful minds and souls;
We celebrate all your efforts,
Support and praise all your goals.
"It's celebration!"

This week begins the Lenten season, starting with Ash Wednesday on February 14 and concluding on Saturday, March 31, the day before Easter. For some, this may cause flashbacks of you as a child or adult with ashes on your forehead; for some, you may know this time when you would abstain from sweets or other vices for 40 long days; and for some, you may not have any connection to this word at all. You may ask, "Lenten. Like lentil soup?"
At Real Church we exist to point people to Christ and to train them to live out their individual and corporate callings by being real with ourselves, others, and God. We do not force people to practice church traditions or to be particularly fluent in them; however, we believe God uses these traditions to remind us of Him, so having a working knowledge of them is important and will encourage your faith.
Some of us may have baggage when it comes to these traditions. We get it. And we pray that you will be able to release that baggage and let God redeem it. Why? Because these holy days remind us of how much we need our Savior Jesus Christ. It's humbling. It causes us to really see ourselves and see God. And it allows us to share in the highs and lows of our faith with other believers as we go through the highs and lows of Jesus's ministry. It's real. It's the vision of the church.
A Quick Summary of the Liturgical Calendar, Part I
Let me preface, this is a quick summary. My goal is to show you how these traditions are all about Jesus, and to also encourage you to adopt some of these traditions if you feel led by the Spirit to do so.
The year begins with Advent, which sets us up to anticipate the promised Messiah. This lasts four Sundays, usually around 25 days. We don't have to wait long because his birth is celebrated on Christmas. Some traditions celebrate the 12 Days of Christmas, which begins on Christmas and leads up to the Epiphany, which is the reveal of Jesus to the wise men who came to worship and bring Him gifts. These days remind us that Jesus truly is a precious gift from God.
The calendar continues with the Lenten season, which is a season of preparing ourselves for the Cross through prayer, repentance, reflection, and worship. The focus is on our Messiah and how much we truly need Him, which prepares our heart for Holy Week.
Before Lent truly begins, some church traditions celebrate Fat Tuesday/Mardi Gras/Carnival, which is the Tuesday before Lent (February 13). It's a day of celebration and thankfulness for all the blessings God has given you. And for some traditions, it's the day to repent of your sins as you enter Lent. Some have also used this day to sin as much as they want, but we do not condone that practice.
Ash Wednesday, February 14, is the first day of Lent. It's a somber day of reflection and humility. It's the day to repent, it's the day to remember the hope we have in Christ, and for some, to publicly acknowledge Jesus by placing a sign of the cross with ash on your forehead.
Lent lasts 40 days (February 14-March 31), and as mentioned earlier, Lent is all about Jesus. There are many ways to observe this holiday. Some people fast as a way to focus their attention on Jesus. This may include fasting from Netflix and spending that time in worship. Some fast from a certain food and use those moments when they are tempted to remember Christ. Some people add daily Scripture reading, such as one of the Gospels or even Isaiah, which teaches a great deal about the promised Messiah.
Whatever you decide to do during this season, the purpose is to let God prepare your heart for the Cross by realizing your desperate need for a Savior. Let us know how you are celebrating/observing Lent this season in the comments below.
This post is taken and updated from last year's series on the Liturgical Calendar.

"The reality is," says Dan Ariely, a Duke University professor, "we all have the potential of being bad."
It is this provocative idea that runs through the documentary "(Dis)Honesty — The Truth About Lies," opening on Friday in New York, which Mr. Ariely and two others produced with the filmmaker Yael Melamede.
Through the candid testimony of public figures and regular people — and also relying on expert opinions, behavioral experiments and archival footage — the film explores thorny questions like why people lie, how they do it and what is the fallout. What quickly becomes clear is that the leap from little white lies to insider trading is not that far.
"When you look at what those people did at the end, you say, 'My goodness, I can't imagine ever doing something like that,' " said Professor Ariely, who specializes in psychology and behavioral economics and who serves as a guide through the film. "But when you look at what they did at the beginning, you say, 'I can see myself doing that.' It is a story about a slippery slope."
Professor Ariely has been immersed in the subject of human behavior as the author of best-selling books like "The Honest Truth About Dishonesty."
Judging by the reactions of critics at screenings, the film has struck a nerve. "Any era is a good one for liars, but folks on every point of the moral or political spectrum are likely to agree: We are living in a fibbers' renaissance," Dennis Harvey wrote in Variety. "As Yael Melamede's documentary notes, various bendings of the truth have among other things recently led us into war, crashed the economy, and allowed potentially catastrophic despoiling of the planet to continue more or less unchecked."
Indeed, the film was prompted in part by the misdeeds of the mortgage crisis, and it turned out to be all too timely. Two days after it was completed, news broke about the NBC News anchor Brian Williams embellishing a tale about a helicopter journey in Iraq. Then last month, 11 educators were convicted of racketeering and other charges for their roles in Atlanta's standardized test cheating case.
The film includes interviews with Marilee Jones, the former dean of admissions at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, who lied about her academic credentials; Joe Papp, a former professional cyclist who pleaded guilty to distributing performance-enhancing drugs; and Kelley Williams Bolar, an Ohio mother who lied about her home address so her daughters could attend school in a better district.
"We avoided extremes — we didn't do the Madoffs of the world and stories of incredible poverty," Ms. Melamede said. "We thought the bigger takeaway is people who are more like us, not psychopathic and not desperate."
In seeking out interview subjects, the filmmakers found that rather than wanting to conceal their misdeeds, people were eager to confess — even on camera. To some extent, they had nothing to lose. "Most of them had been so shamed publicly," said Ms. Melamede, a producer of documentaries (including the Academy Award-winning short "Inocente" and the Academy Award-nominated "My Architect") who is making her directing debut.
But in the cases of the more prominent transgressors, they also wanted to relate their experiences in their own words, because until now the news media had done it for them.
"By sharing stories, we're reminded of our better selves," Ms. Melamede said.
The film also shows Professor Ariely's research experiments, including one in which subjects were asked to take a math test they could not possibly finish in the allotted time and then score themselves. No fewer than 70 percent exaggerated the results. But when people had to list the Ten Commandments or swear on a Bible — even if they were atheists — beforehand, they reported their scores more honestly.
"Just thinking about good behavior reduces cheating," Ms. Melamede said.
The process of making the film revealed clear patterns about how people lie, the filmmakers said, namely that people find ways to justify their behavior.
"You can see the process of rationalization across the movie — every story is a story of rationalization," Professor Ariely said. "There's the rationalization of doing something for other people, there's the rationalization that nobody else would suffer, the rationalization that everybody else was doing it.
"We are really good at this," he added. "If you had to pick a good human skill, rationalization is one of them. We're so fantastic at it."
The filmmakers want the movie to have a lasting, consciousness-raising effect, to make people continue to think about their own honesty. As a result, the film is part of a larger "(Dis)Honesty Project" that includes a middle and high school curriculum (the hope is to run a pilot program with two or three schools in the fall); ethics training for corporations; and a "truth box" that invites people to step inside and be recorded on video telling the truth about a lie (it has so far been set up in New York City and Charlottesville, Va.).
Ms. Melamede said that making the film had heightened her own awareness about lying and made her more empathetic with those who go too far.
"But for the grace of something, we could all be in those situations," she said. "I think I could be so many of these people."

Introduction: Bookbinding a Watch Case
I did not want to spend a great deal of money on a premade watch case for myself when I travel. I had all of these old cigar boxes and left over bookbinding paper. I decided to put them to good use. My method to covering the box may seem a little backwards. If you bind books, the key idea is to prevent rework that can ruin a project. I.E. You need to be precise the first time.
Step 1: Step One
Material List:
Paper Cigar Box, Bookbinding Paper, PVA Glue, Brush, Bone Folder, Cardstock, Foam, Razor Knife, Scissors
Optional: Leather Strap, Snaps, Waxed Thread, Awl, Needle
Measure the paper with the open box and give yourself enough room to cover all of the sides. Leave the paper together as you draw out the square of the bottom of the box. Keep the paper as one piece in this stage of the process.
Glue the square and place the bottom of the box on the square. Turn the paper over and smooth out any of the bubbles. Now cut the paper in the back. You want the top piece to come down to an 1/8" above the bottom and then the bottom piece to come within an 1/8" of the top.
Step 2: Step Two
Turn the box over and slice off the corners to ¾" to the edge of the box. (On books I go much tighter….but I decided to give myself more room and be uniform around the entire box.)
Step 3: Step Three
After the top is tucked and folded with glue. Work backwards
on the bottom. Do not worry about the top being uneven from the inside. Use cardstock to cover this just like the inside leafs of a book. Glue the cardstock and start from the top moving downwards with the bone folder. Work over the edges and press into the back of the box.
Use foam to fill in the box.
Step 4: Step Four
The box can be finished at this point using Shellac spray. The friction of the paper on the box will keep the lid closed. I decided to go ahead and add a leather strap stiched through the top of the box.
Choose a leather strap and angle the left anf right side with a punch or razor knife. Using an awl or a drill with a very small bit....safely put stitch holes in the leather and paper making them as uniform as possible. Stich the leather to the box and attach snaps. It is important to note that if you are using rivet style snaps, the paper box will be too thick. In this case use a small bold and nut. (the foam will cover it.)
The finished product turned out well. I would also point out that you will need to turn the watches upside down to make their glass faces aim towards the foam. Just to make sure nothing gets damaged. I decided not to use two sections of foam based on the thickness.

Irbil: Three militants stormed the governorate building in the city of Irbil in Iraq's northern Kurdish region, opening fire and wounding a policeman before they were gunned down, according to Iraqi media.
The assault started at around 7 a.m. and local Kurdish security forces later managed to enter the building, according to Rudaw Television and Radio, which cited the city's deputy governor, Tahir Abdullah.
Details were sketchy and shortly before noon, Rudaw said security forces reported that one of the militants inside the building was killed. Iraqi state TV later said all three attackers were killed, citing Kurdish security officials.
"I'd like to reassure everyone that the situation is under control as security forces have entered the building and are searching for the attackers room by room," Abdullah told Rudaw.
Kurdistan 24, a local TV channel, broadcast video showing security personnel surrounding the building and trying to enter it. Gunfire is occasionally heard in the footage.
There were no further details as to what was happening inside the building or if there were any hostages or causalities. No militant group immediately claimed responsibility for the assault.
Irbil is the capital of Iraq's self-governing northern Kurdish region, which typically enjoys good security.
The last major attack there took place in 2015 against the US Consulate, killing three people and wounding five others. One American teacher and two Turkish citizens were among the wounded, police said. The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the attack.
Iraqi Kurdish forces known as peshmerga were key in the Iraqi military's defeat of IS last year.

A vigorous discipline of sociology requires the creation of meaningful research knowledge and the training of professional sociologists able to pass on that knowledge effectively. In spring 2015, four ASA Department Affiliate institutions participated in a pilot project to integrate TRAILS, ASA's Teaching Resources and Innovations Library for Sociology, into their graduate teaching seminars.
The ASA Task Force on Liberal Learning and the Sociology Major, Third Edition (LL3) has been working steadily on the charge put to it by ASA Council at their August 2014 meeting: to revise the ASA document Liberal Learning and the Sociology Major Updated: Meeting the Challenges of Teaching Sociology in the 21st Century (McKinney et al. 2004). Perhaps the most important as well as the most cited sociology curricular document in the United States, this revision comes at a critical time when several changes are occurring in higher education.
Sally Hillsman,
ASA Executive Officer
A tiny hair barrette and an anguished moment marked the turning point for one mother in coming to fully accept that her child, who was born a boy, was a transgender girl.
Quinn had expressed a preference for girls' clothing and accessories at a young age, but Jessica and her husband, Steve, would not allow her to wear them outside their home.
One day, picking her up from school, Jessica watched Quinn quickly remove a barrette from her hair and slip it into her pocket, ashamed that her mother might have seen.
Mothers who leave work to raise children often sacrifice more than the pay for their time off; when they come back their wages reflect lost raises, according to a new study by Paula England, Professor of Sociology at New York University.
Fall 2016 Vol. 15 No. 4
Features include "Financial Foreclosures," "Fat Eggs or Fit Bodies," "God's Case for Sex," "Revisiting the Rationing of Medical Degrees in the United States," and "Activating Politics with Poetry and Spoken Word."
At the 2014 Annual Meeting in San Francisco, Executive Officer Sally Hillsman, met with the Committee on Professional Ethics (COPE) and suggested that it was time to revise the Code of Ethics. Revisions were last made to the Code 20 years ago, and a great deal of change had taken place. Regulatory and technological advances have had striking impacts on the field. At the time, the Department of Health and Human Services was about to announce changes to The Common Rule, which governs the vast majority of human subjects research efforts.
Features include "Wedding Cake Woes", "Serial Killers and Sex Workers", "Mental Health and Police Killings", and "Truth-Spots."
A best seller for many years, this invaluable reference has been published by the ASA since 1965 and provides comprehensive information for academic administrators, advisers, faculty, students, and a host of others seeking information on social science departments in the U.S., Canada, and abroad.

Farm experts drawn from the diverse field of the country's agricultural value chain rose from a two-day meeting, at the Reiz continental hotel Abuja, on Tuesday, hearing how a German development initiative, the Green Innovations Centres for the Agriculture and Food Sector in Nigeria, has trained over 27,000 farmers and is setting sail to create partnership with rice, cassava, maize and potatoes processors and input dealers to secure the country's food future.
The coordinator for the Green Innovations Centre in Nigeria, Annemarie Matthess, who organized the meeting, said while "the purpose of this meeting is to have a stock taking of what has been achieved in the last 27 months and create partnership with rice, cassava, maize and potatoes processors and input dealers," the centre's strategic goal is to train over 200,000 smallholders and processing companies, boost employment growth with at least 1000 new jobs, and increase in income by an average of 20 per cent for 170,000 smallholder farms.
Ms. Matthess said experts at the meeting gathered as top executives, agricultural entrepreneurs, finance experts, channel distributors, agricultural professors, farmers, and producers with the aim of "knowledge sharing on innovations between research and advisory institutions, cooperatives and associations, the distribution of innovations, and advising Nigerian companies to improve processing and make it more economical."
The Green Innovations Centre, GIZ, is an initiative commissioned by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), and has the additional mandate of taking innovation centres to Institutions across Nigeria, said Ms. Matthess who doubles in her role as the head of programme of the Sustainable Smallholders Agricultural business programme in the country.
In this role, the initiative is working with Federal Colleges of Agriculture to take up business relevant curricular to complete the conventional training for student and to make young people fit for Agriculture.
Speaking at the event, the Head of Cooperation at the German Embassy, Christopher Wenzel, welcomed participants and spoke on the challenges of Nigerian youth and their need to embrace the lucrative business opportunities in agriculture and reject the mainstream narrative on agriculture as an enterprise defined by 'hard labour.'
Speaking to PREMIUM TIMES, Baba Ashamara who is the team leader for agriculture and finance consultants working for the Green Innovations Centre, said, through the innovations and interventions of the Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) and Farmers Business School (FBS), the scheme has trained over 2,000 Nigerian farmers on improved processing techniques on Rice and Cassava.
Mr. Ashamara said the future looks good for smallholder farmers and processors along the four intervention areas for Rice, Cassava, Potatoes and Maize believing the programme will increase and create a better condition for the processors to improve their investment and profitability on the farmers who have embraced farming as a business and not as a way of life.
The event, he remarked, has created a clear road map with about 30 partner companies and processing companies around skills training, contract farming, improved processing to the advantage of farmers.
Mr. Ashamara further said Green Innovations Centre is in collaboration with two big time agripreneurs, OLAM and NOTORE, on demonstration plot which is ongoing in Kaduna and Kano with a phenomenal outcome.
The innovation centre started in 2015 with the aim of eradicating hunger in Africa with a theme ONE WORLD NO HUNGER. The innovations work with four value chains in seven states across Nigeria. The stakeholders meeting is usually organized every six months to assess progress that has been made in the work and also plan a roadmap for activities for the next six to twelve months.
The initiative hopes to increase impact through new partnerships on mechanization, ICT, TVET, processing efficiency as well as policies on easy, accessible information, seed varieties and Cost-effective extension services.
Looking ahead of its future, Ms. Annemarie said she is optimistic about Green Innovation Centre reaching its goals in the next two years in Nigeria.
"There will be impacts in terms of yield, income and job creations. If this continues this way, we will extend our expectations in Nigeria," she said.

Full Day Ho Chi Minh City Tour
This tour includes visits to...
Tour Details
Lets Go!
We start our great day by heading for a beautiful stroll through the pretty Ho Thi Ky Flower Market, the biggest in Ho Chi Minh City! You'll get to view the daily life of the city's local traders as you are dazzled by the scents and kaleidoscope of colours while we navigate through the narrow winding streets of the market before we explore the Saigon Chinatown.
Gaze At Cholon - Chinatown Saigon
Cholon, which directly translates to "Big Market", was first established in the late 1700's when a large number of Hoa, an ethnic Chinese minority residing in Vietnam. Thien Hau is widely considered the most beautiful temple in the area and really worth paying a visit! After visiting this legendary temple, we will head to Secret Weapon Cellar.
Secret Saigon Underground
The NLF dug numerous secret cellars in the heart of Saigon to store weapons and explosives brought from rural bases such as Cu Chi for fighting against the South Government, particularly the 1968 Tet Offensive. Early in 1967 the house's owner, Trần Văn Lai, dug two cellars underneath the house to store pistols, rifles, grenades and over 350kg of TNT were transported there in hollowed-out boxes and specially-adapted wickerwork baskets and plant pots. After visiting this historic place, we will head to the memorial of Thich Quang Duc who shocked the world by burning himself to death in 1963.
Learn the different perspectives about Vietnam War!
Next we will head back to the city center to visit the fascinating War Remnants Museum. This will be an emotionally hard-hitting experience given the graphic content of the museum. Yet, it will be a valuable stop for anybody wishing to learn more about different perspectives surrounding the Vietnam War and its continuing effects today.
Stop For A Tasty Local Lunch
After the museum, we'll take a well earned rest and enjoy a tasty Vietnamese Set Menu Lunch at an authentic restaurant. After we've fueled up on these delicious local dishes, it's off to our first stop of the afternoon which will be the Reunification Palace. Here you'll learn all about its important place in Vietnamese history.
An Afternoon Of Amazing Architecture
Our next stop will be the famous Notre Dame Cathedral and Central Post Office. Your knowledgeable guide will explain all the history behind these two incredible buildings. Your guide will show you the historic CIA building where one of the last U.S Helicopters flew out of Saigon in 1975. Next, we'll walk you to visit more HCMC highlights including the Opera House, Hotel Continental, Rex Hotel and City Hall as well as viewing the mighty Bitexco.
Our Final Stop!
In order to wrap up a wonderful day, we recommend you to come up to Rex Hotel rooftop for the legendary "Five O'clock Follies" cocktail or simply have a cup of coffee or tea at the Coffee Apartment. After the last stop we will get you safely back to your hotel in the comfort of our private vehicle. Don't forget to give a hug to your lovely guide and ask for recommendations from our local expert!

I've heard somewhere that everyone is allowed at least one Christmas disaster story. We now have ours. Christmas 2015 will now be known in our family as "the year our tree fell down".
Actually there were several mini-disasters, minor bumps in the road, that led up to the bigger one.
First, in late November, our car started making an ominous knocking sound. We brought it in and were told the oil had run out and the warning light failed to come on. Not what you want to hear from the car guy right at the start of the Christmas shopping season. So we got the necessary repairs which were fortunately covered by our warranty; and we dodged a bullet of major engine damage. Minor bump one.
Then the kitchen sink started leaking water into the cabinet below and we had to hire our trusty handy man to put in a new one. Trusty handy man, in turning off the water in the basement, found a leak in the furnace pipe. He said " you should call a real plumber to fix it". One real plumber later, our modest budget for presents was down to a few farthings. Oh well. The last thing you want at Christmas is a flood in the kitchen. Bump two. Surely it would be smooth sailing from here.
Not a chance.
Normally a very healthy guy, I got a nasty cold right at the start of December that turned into a "mild pneumonia in the right lung". I hate to think what a bad case might feel like. I never had pneumonia before and this one rendered me pretty much useless for the whole month. I don't recommend it to anyone.
So my poor wife, the ever-energetic Polly, put up Christmas all by herself this year. Not only did she get all four of her unique artificial trees down from the attic, she also carted all the boxes of vintage ornaments and lights down our skinny attic steps, decorated all the trees and the rest of the house, put her Christmas Village up on top of our grand piano, and then proceeded to clean and cook for not one, but two Christmas gatherings we were hosting.
I meanwhile dutifully obeyed my doctor's instructions and rested, drank copious amounts of water and generally felt like a useless sloth. Another description of my state that my wife not so cheerfully provided was "sitting there like a prince".
Guilty as charged. And I remain in awe of her stamina.
Finally, a week before Christmas, I felt good enough to get out of the house to help her accomplish two major tasks. The first was to get the food for the coming celebrations. Over the mountain and through the woods we drove to the giant food warehouse where the entire population of western Connecticut was also shopping that day. After confirming our recently renewed and recently lost membership cards, we were allowed to proceed and wander the giant food warehouse to purchase giant amounts of food.
Our second mission was to get a real live Christmas tree, the first real one of our seven years of marriage. So, filled with nostalgic images of fragrant pine boughs, lights and angels, Polly and I went to the nearby nursery and hunted down the perfect specimen. We chose a big fat eight foot tall balsam fir. We noticed they had a couple of heavy duty metal tree stands with big spikes that cost about $100. They looked capable of securing a redwood. I got the fairly big plastic stand we already had from the car and asked the tree guys if it would be adequate. They assured us it would, nodding vehemently in that way that knowledgeable tree guys use, as if to say "stand aside, sir, we are knowledgeable tree guys, have no fear".
So the knowledgeable tree guys made a fresh cut and tied it to our car roof. Back through the woods and over the mountain we drove, our hearts brimming with yuletide cheer.
With some authentic huffing and puffing (mostly on my part) and minor scraping of walls (on the tree's part), we got the beautiful evergreen up to the second floor of our old two family house and into the newly appointed Christmas room. Into the tree stand we guided it, and with some angling and tightening of the screws, the Christmas tree was up. The house already smelled like pine woods of northern Maine! I didn't even mind the pine sap on my new flannel shirt, it smelled so good. We gave it its first four gallon drink of cold tap water, and Polly began the process of stringing the old-fashioned large size lights and hanging her many ornaments.
We were both excited that Polly's son Rosario (and my stepson) would soon arrive. He had just completed a grueling first semester of graduate school and we looked forward to having him home again and seeing his reaction to the new Christmas tree.
He loved it, as we all did. It was a very thirsty tree and had to be watered twice a day. We took turns crawling under the bottom boughs with freshly filled water bottles. Christmas spirit was building! The tree was up and smelling great, glowing with the light of red, green, blue and white bulbs, the long table was set up, and it was a pleasure to wrap presents there in the Christmas room with Aaron Neville, Amy Grant, Vince Gill and Bing Crosby singing Christmas songs on the boombox.
One last mission was announced by Polly: get the Santa with two reindeer up on the outside second story porch. Since the new tree was blocking the door to the outside porch where Santa needed to go, we used the window to the roof next to the porch. In an unusually warm December, it had grown colder and rainy two days before Christmas. But I borrowed our neighbor's good ladder and Rosario, Polly and I brought Santa up to his porch-top position. Rosario climbed the ladder, being the lightest and nimblest of us. I was ladder-holder. Rosario and his mom made some last minute repairs with some duct tape, hooked up the cables and – Voila! – Santa was ready for his midnight ride!
Christmas Eve dinner – celebration number one – went smoothly. Everybody ate a little too much, exchanged presents, laughed, told stories and had a wonderful time. After everyone left, determined to stay ahead of the game, Polly washed half of the dishes before getting to bed at 1:30 in the morning. We both fell asleep like yuletide logs.
An hour later, with dreams of sugarplums dancing in our heads, we were awakened out of a deep sleep by Rosario with these words: "Uh, guys, there was a huge crash – it was the Christmas tree. It fell over. I think we better deal with this right now."
Polly later said she could not wake her brain up. We were staring at the fallen Christmas tree and all the smashed ornaments which had landed smack dab in the middle of the decorated Christmas dinner table, and watching a small but lively brook flowing from the tree stand down the hall into the living room. I was blinking but couldn't take it in. The fallen tree just looked so huge and strange, lying on its side like that.
Then two very clear thoughts appeared in my brain, as we scrambled to find every towel in the house to blot up the river of pine-scented tree water. My first thought was "that's the last time I trust knowledgeable tree guys" and the other was "at least it wasn't a fire."
In seconds we bonded together, like the incredibly strong family we are, and tackled the problem. After we mopped up the water, I held the tree (mmm, still smells good, though – man, my shoulder is burning..); Rosario, engineer that he is, improvised a wire buttress between the trunk and the porch door to see if it could support it better; and Polly rescued the remaining ornaments from the branches and swept up the shards of the broken ones from the floor and rug. It became apparent, after several attempts at securing it with wire, that the tree would just not stay up. Its volume had expanded, after drinking all that water, to the point where the "less heavy-duty" stand could no longer support it.
Not wanting to risk another toppling, and needing to get at least two hours sleep before getting up to prepare for Christmas Day dinner, we decided to cut our losses and put the tree out on the porch. It could keep Santa and the reindeer company, like a small horizontal forest. We'd deal with getting it over the porch railing later.
We got the lights off, Rosario went to bed, and Polly and I stayed up and packed all the ornaments away and brought them back up to the attic. We also hung the wet rug pad out on the clothesline and lifted the new Persian rug up a bit to air it out.
I have to hand it to my wife and Rosario – and to myself, too. It could have become a traumatic, holiday-destroying disaster, but, by keeping a positive attitude and a sense of humor, we solved the problem, got a few hours sleep and were able to enjoy our Christmas Day with our family.
And we got a story out of it.
Christmas 2015. The year our tree fell down.

Anfgou (Province of Midelt) — The field hospital set up, following the high instructions of HM King Mohammed VI, by the Royal Armed Forces (FAR) in Anfgou (province of Midelt) began Tuesday providing healthcare services to local populations.
Colonel Mohamed Menfaa, the hospital's chief medical officer, told MAP that this medical surgical hospital is intended to provide healthcare services and help the region's population face the harsh winter conditions particularly in remote areas.
The hospital's staff includes 18 doctors working in different specialities, in addition to 19 nurses and pharmacists, he said.
Pursuant to the High Instructions of HM King Mohammed VI, Supreme Commander and Chief of General Staff of the Royal Armed Forces (FAR), the FAR will set up two field hospitals in Ouaouiziret (Azilal province) and Anfgou (Midelt province), the FAR General Staff said last week in a statement.

Tips to Properly Pack & Unpack House Shifting Items in Boxes
Making a move can always be a very difficult phase of life. Not only do you leave behind memories, but also you have to start a new life from scratch. When it comes to house shifting, there are plenty of tips and tricks that can help you with Packing and unpacking. We will share a few ways to make this part of life easier and clutter free.
- How to Properly Pack House Shifting Items in boxes:
- Plan everything beforehand – before you start shifting and putting items in boxes, plan how many boxes you require, whether you need Corrugated cartons for house shifting or simple cartons, how much time do you have for the process, and from where to begin. Doing things haphazardly will always make it more difficult.
- Start packing from one room then the other. Make sure to throw away things you don't need and do not collect useless items and stay clutter free.
- Properly label each box to avoid any sort of confusion at the end. This will make it easier for you to classify.
- Use proper packing materials depending on the item. You can go through various options of House Shifting boxes by Roshpack and select according to the size and dimension required.
- First put heavier items and then lighter items at the top. Do not overfill and make sure that each box is not so heavy that it cannot be transported.
- Use bubble wrap to protect your fragile items. Label fragile carefully on each of such boxes.
- Classify one type of item in each box. For example, toiletries or bathroom items and frames and pictures should be packed separately.
- Properly Unpack House Shifting Items:
Now that you have completed your move, it is time to open each box one by one and settle into the new place:
- Open the necessary items first. Like kitchen and bathroom items are needed first so open those boxes first. Kitchen is the most important part of the house, so settle down a few plates and crockery, and food items should be kept in place since they can go bad easily.
- Properly assemble and line up your furniture so that you will not damage the heavier items. It will also help you to visualize your home.
- Keep fragile items safe and open them up carefully so that they do not break. Remove them from wrapping and check whether any damage is done or not.
- When starting with bedrooms, open boxes one at a time. First hang stuff in the closet, and assemble furniture. Then start with the rest.
- You can also assign boxes to each family member and let them unpack and settle their own belongings.
- Once you have unpacked the necessary items, take it slow. You cannot unpack and set the whole house in a single day.
- While unpacking, open each box carefully, especially the ones with corrugated sheets. These boxes are very valuable and can easily be reused again in the future.

It's time to see who made the grade (or not) at round three.
After the first two rounds of the season, and the first Main Event on Saturday, I was starting to let a little bit of doubt enter my mind about Shane's chances of winning the title. He didn't look comfortable, and, to be frank, he didn't look to have the speed to compete with the front two guys for the win at either round. So given that he was thought of as a pre-season favorite by many people (including myself), I was a bit surprised by his performances until the second race of the Triple Crown. Something changed in that race, and all the sudden it was like the old Shane McElrath was back in business. He went on to finish second in the second race, and then he claimed a fairly dominant victory in the third race after getting by Adam Cianciarulo. And poof! Just like that, Shane is only two points down from Colt Nichols after three rounds. Shane talked about bike setup after the race, and how he had struggled to find a comfortable setting at the first two rounds. Well, clearly he found something that suits him pretty well at Anaheim 2. This might spell bad news for the rest of the field if he can keep the momentum rolling. With how stacked this 250 field is, though, that won't be a simple task.
Jimmy has had a fairly solid season so far and is still sitting in sixth place in the standings after Anaheim 2, but it definitely wasn't the day he was looking to have. The first race went decently with him finishing in seventh, but a gnarly crash in the second race ruined his chances of a decent overall for the night. I'm sure it also left him pretty sore for the last race, and he had to tough it out for a 12th and 13th place overall. Not a satisfying result for him or the team, but he did make it out healthy so there's always next week. Really, I just hope that Jimmy is able to stay healthy for the entire season and get a good start in a Main Event at some point. It's been a while since we've seen him run up front.
Sometimes it really does seem like teammates in this sport are linked, even though it's largely an individual sport. Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki's Adam Cianciarulo and Garrett Marchbanks both struggled throughout the night with multiple crashes each. Adam looked to be ready to continue his winning ways from Glendale in the first race before going down. He was able to mount a charge and come back to fourth place, but then he was pretty impatient in the second race and made several mistakes leading to a 14th-place finish. He seemed to get himself back in check for the third race and didn't ride over his head, which led to a second-place finish in the race and a salvage job of fifth place overall. The Triple Crown format actually worked in his favor as he didn't lose a bunch of points, and he is still well within striking distance of the championship lead, but still not a great night overall. Garrett Marchbanks, on the other hand, just had a straight up horrendous night of racing. He crashed in each of the first two races, and I don't believe he lined up for the third race. This is his rookie season in Supercross, though, so the occasional bad race is to be expected. I hope he's physically okay and is able to race next weekend in Oakland.
Is this our new normal? Are we all dreaming? No? Fantastic. Three different winners through the first three rounds of the championship, and none of them were one of the pre-season favorites. This is absolutely wild and I love it. The Cooper Webb of old is back!...? He was definitely the man at Anaheim 2 and proved that he does have what it takes to win on a 450, but he also straight up got 10th place the weekend before. So while I definitely think that Cooper Webb's race-winning speed has reappeared, I'm not completely sold that he's going to be making a run at the championship this year. We'll have to see how he does over the next few rounds. If he continues to win or podium, though, I'll have to eat my words. Also, how about the finger gun gesture at Ken Roczen after the first race? Upon scrolling through Instagram shortly after the race was over, it was made pretty clear to me that a lot of people were not pumped with that move. I guess we've reached a point where a rider can't even celebrate and poke a little fun at another rider after a race without him getting some heat...or maybe everyone just had a flashback to when their buddy did the same gesture at them in a friendly race of MX vs ATV back in 2009 and got irrationally angry. Any-who, I look forward to seeing how Cooper will do next weekend now that he has gotten the "first 450 Supercross win" monkey off of his back.
The Anaheim 1 and Anaheim 2 versions of El Hombre looked pretty similar, but I don't think either one is the real El Hombre. His finishes were 6-6-17, aka not what the defending champion is looking for. I'm not sure what's up, folks. I thought the fisherman was back in the boat after Glendale. The Anaheim 1 obligations and nerves were long gone, and it was time for him to return to his 2018 ways! However, it's looking like it might be an up-and-down season for him unless he really does get back on track soon. He doesn't even need to win or podium at this point. A string of top fives would be a good stepping stone for him. Some guys on the forum seem to think that he's hiding an injury. Possibly? Of course, a lot of these guys hide an injury from everyone at some point during the season, but I'm not really going to buy into that idea unless something official is said about it. I think how he does in Oakland will provide further insight, or maybe even more confusion, about the state of Jason Anderson.
Justin's season started out in the most perfect way with his Anaheim 1 win. He was in a great position to contend for the title if he could remain consistent over the course of the season, and it added another chapter into the story of his comeback. Glendale didn't go amazingly well, but he was still in the fight, and then it all came crashing down in the final race on Saturday. He got ejected from his bike in one of the super-rutted rhythm sections and landed hard. The early word on his injury has been a bruised tailbone, which is positive because it means nothing is broken, but it could still prove detrimental to his season. A bruised tailbone is no joke, and I'm not sure if he'll be able to race (at least very well) at Oakland. We'll just have to wait see what his camp decides to do as the weekend approaches. Also, on the bright side, with how the points work in the Triple Crown Events he still ended up 10th place overall after not finishing the final race, which definitely helped him out in the standings. I hope Justin's back to 100% sooner rather than later.

I am still holding onto the power of beginnings. At 30ish I found out that I would have to fight to hold onto my celebrations of the little victories. they are not welcome among the many. How weird is that? i mean when you're little you celebrate everything! lost a tooth? party. First days, last days, camp and birthdays.. everything was a celebrations! I think we fall and get up so often as adults that we just stop celebrating. I will not. This however convoluted the journey to getting here may have been, is still a beginning. I am still celebrating this beginning. /
Thank you for being a part of my celebration. What beginning is this? an idea long time in the making that grew and blossomed and died and then found its roots and grew again. a celebration of tribe, of light and love. This is the web that connects the powerful women in my life. the Golden circle, the ones who smack me, hug me, kiss me, and guide me into a new dawn. They've decided to stick with me through this journey and see where it leads.
Welcome to my new adventure.
This began with a question – what can we do to help heal the world. We are only 3 women with gifts, but how to begin? Where to begin? Ideas flowed, and then came the realization. One has to heal and love self before taking on the community or even the world. This is the journey we take to love self and love others.
