There's a new winning snake in the state's "Python Challenge."
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission said Sunday that Blake Russ, of Fruitland Park, should have won $1,000 for bagging the longest Burmese python. Russ competed with hunters holding special permits for harvesting pythons.
Ruben Ramirez of Miami was given the prize Saturday for a snake more than 10 feet long.
Wildlife officials said Ramirez will keep his prize money. Russ will get $1,000 of his own for a snake more than 11 feet long.
"This hunt, a lot of people don't realize, covered million of acres of land in the Florida Everglades," said Everglades Coordinating Council Commissioner Ron Bergeron.
University of Florida professor Frank Mazzotti said the mix-up was his mistake. Unlike other snakes killed in the hunt, Russ' snake was released with a tracking device.
Among competitors without the python permits, Paul Shannon of Lehigh Acres won $1,000 for 14-foot-3-inch snake.
In all, 68 pythons were either captured, killed or fitted with a tracking device.

Simple and believable
By martinjbaker (10 reviews) from London UK , 01 Apr 2012With its tiny cast (number not height), it's a very intimate film with a deceptively simple premise. What's fascinating is how deep it gets. Clearly much of it was improvised and it feels better and more believable for it.

I am currently building up the region where my players will set their house. Its on the northern shores of the Saltspear, south of the Barrowtown and west of the Fever river.
Checking with the local houses I rounded them up to 5 direct neighbors (Dustin, Stout, Moss, Whitehill, Fenn) and 3 more distant (Ryswell, Flint and Ironsmith).
With the addition of the home house there is a total of 9 (7 minor - 2 major) houses in a region of 150.000 square miles or about 17.000 square leagues (game domains).
On game terms most houses will have 3-10 land domains for a max total of about 90 land domains to be owned from the local houses.
What about the rest? How do you handle this situation? They are just vast lawless land which none own? Do you create scores of landed and minor houses to add them up around those of the books?

Typing an entry after several months of abandoning this site does make me feel rather peculiar. I made some cupcakes for my colleagues and I was grateful that they actually enjoyed the product. Hence, I would like to share this simple recipe. I'm sure you'll like it.
Source : 500 Cupcakes and Muffins by Fergal Conolly
Ingredients :
For the cupcakes :
- 225g unsalted butter
- 225g caster sugar
- 225 self-raising flour
- 1 teaspoonful of baking powder
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoonful of vanilla essence
- 10 crushed cream-filled chocolate cookies ( I used 15 pieces of Oreo biscuits)
For the icing :
- 375g icing sugar
- 225g unsalted butter, softened
- a pinch of salt
- 10 chopped cream filled chocolate cookies ( I cut mine into halves and place on top of the butter cream)
Method :
- Preheat the oven to 175 C. Place 18 foil of paper baking cases in muffin tins.
- Combine all the cupcake ingredients, except the cookies, in a large bowl and beat with an electrical whisk until smooth and pale, about 2 to 3 minutes. Then stir in the cookies.
- Spoon the batter into the cases. Bake for 20 minutes. remove tins from the oven and cool for 5 minutes. Then, remove the cupcakes and cool on a wire rack.
- To make the icing, beat the icing sugar, butter and salt using an electric whisk. Spread the icing onto the cooled cupcakes and sprinkle the chopped cookis on top.
- Store without icing in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze up to 3 months.

KALAMAZOO (WKZO) -- Legislation that could be signed by Governor Snyder this week seeks to change the voting process in Michigan.
Patricia Selby with Project Vote says some of the changes could actually make it harder for organizations like the League of Women Voters or the NAACP to help register voters by way of new regulations. Other bills in the package include the requirement of photo identification at polls where it sometimes had previously not been required.
The group believes it may be a case of corporate influence through groups such as ALEC, and they hope the Governor will veto the bills.

I have insomnia problems. I don't have any issue to fall asleep when I go to bed at 10PM, in general I start to sleep winthin a minute but then I wake up between 1 am to 2 am and my sleep is very fragmented. Then I don't feel refresh in the morning and the fatigue lasts all most during the day.
What is strange for me is that if I don't wake up during the night, I feel even worst in the morning (does it mean that I don't get a restful sleep? apnea, restless leg syndroms???).
I tried ZMA, melatonin in the past but my sleep was even worst. Do you think X-Dream can help me to get a deep sleep even if I don't have any issue to fall asleep?

Genetic Counseling & Testing
What is a genetic counselor? Why would I see a genetic counselor? What inherited conditions suggest a consultation with a genetic counselor? What inherited diseases are most common in certain ethnic groups? What happens during a visit to a genetic counselor? What if tests show that there is a risk that we might pass on an inherited disorder? Where can I find a genetic counselor? What is a genetic counselor?A genetic counselor is a health professional specially trained to understand and interpret your genetic information and the likely genetic consequences of a pregnancy between you and your partner. Genetic counselors can help you determine if you want to pursue any genetic testing, screening, or preventative measures. A genetic counselor can help you examine and make decisions about genetic factors that might place you at higher risk for having a baby with hereditary diseases or birth defects. Genetic counselors also provide emotional support and can refer you and your family to community or state support services, if needed.Medical conditions that occur or have occurred at some time in your family can be passed on through you. Talking with a genetic counselor is often the first step toward understanding and dealing with your inherited risks. Getting this information while you are planning to get pregnant can help you prepare and make informed decisions throughout your pregnancy. Why would I want to see a genetic counselor?You may want to consider genetic counseling if you and/or your partner:
What inherited conditions suggest a consultation with a genetic counselor?You might want to talk to a genetic counselor if any of the following conditions are present on either side of your families:Achondroplasia (a form of dwarfism)** Canavan Disease* Cleft Palate Club Foot Congenital (inherited) Heart Disease Cystic Fibrosis* Diabetes Dwarfism Gaucher's Disease* Hemophilia Huntington's Chorea (a debilitating neurological condition) Mental Retardation (Fragile X Syndrome, some forms of Down Syndrome) Hydrocephalus ("water on the brain") Muscular Dystrophy Phenylketonuria Polydactylism (extra toes or fingers)** Sickle Cell disease or trait* Thalassemia* Tay-Sachs trait or disease* ** Autosomal dominant inherited pattern- only one parent has to carry the gene; the parent usually has the disease, and each child has a 50:50 chance of inheriting it *Autosomal recessive diseases- diseases that both parents carry in their genetic make-up; the child has to inherit one copy of the gene from each parent in order to get it. If a woman and her partner both carry the gene, there is a 25% chance with each pregnancy that the baby will have that disease. If only one parent carries the gene, the baby will not have the disease. What inherited diseases are most common in certain ethnic groups?Among the most common inherited diseases by ethnic group are:Sickle Cell Anemia, a blood disorder that mainly affects people of African descent Tay-Sachs Disease, a central nervous system disease that primarily affects Jewish people of Eastern European ancestry Thalassemia, a group of blood disorders that mainly affect people of Mediterranean, African, and Southern Asian descent Cystic Fibrosis, a disorder of the lungs and digestive system that mainly affects Caucasians What happens during a visit to a genetic counselor?Typically, when you go to see a genetic counselor, you will discuss background medical information about you and your partner. This may include information about your family history, your own medical history, and any previous pregnancies. Before the meeting, you can help by preparing a health family tree going back three generations. You may also be asked to bring your medical records as well as photos of any members of your family with possible genetic disorders.In some cases, the counselor may offer carrier testing, usually a blood test, to help determine if you or your partner has genes that increase the chances that you will have a child with a certain inherited disease or birth defect. After you become pregnant, there will be further genetic tests you can take to determine if your fetus has a genetic disorder. The cost of genetic counseling and testing can range from under $100 to over $2,000, depending on what tests are required, but average between $175 and $300. Some health insurance plans cover these costs, especially if your doctor recommends it. What if tests show that there is a risk that we might pass on an inherited disorder?The genetic counselor should ask about your concerns and guide you toward information on specific birth defects that will help you make informed decisions. This is a totally personal choice. Counseling enables you and your partner to educate yourselves about potential challenges and to talk through some difficult questions before a baby is even part of the equation. Counseling can also help you and your partner prepare for any medical or social needs for your baby before it is born.Where can I find a genetic counselor?Many large medical centers offer genetic counseling. Your primary health care provider can probably refer you to one. Also, this website resources to help you find a genetic counselor. Many genetic counselors become certified by the American Board of Genetic Counseling as a way to attest to their acquired knowledge and skills.What effect will all this new genetic research have on my pregnancy?The field of human genetics has seen enormous breakthroughs recently. In coming years, gene therapy -- the manipulation of genes to fight or prevent diseases -- will undoubtedly have a significant impact on the incidence (new cases) and prevalence (total cases) of genetic diseases and birth defects. The treatment or elimination of inherited diseases or birth defects could one day become a reality, but right now the field is still young.Most recent page update: 10/26/2012

After three consecutive summer vacations on Martha's Vineyard, President Obama and his family apparently will not be relaxing on the island this year as a heated presidential campaign gathers momentum toward what is expected to be a close election.
The State Police detachment on the island has been told that the president will not be coming; extensive bookings to house the president's staff and security have been canceled by the White House travel office; and the 28-acre waterfront estate in Chilmark where the Obamas stayed the last three years has been sold to a British couple.
"The word I have is that they are not coming this year," said State Police Sergeant Thomas Medeiros, who said that notice came from the Secret Service.
As a result, tee times in mid- to late-August might be easier to book on the Vineyard's golf courses; meals at Nancy's in Oak Bluffs and the Beach Plum Inn in Menemsha might be uninterrupted by a presidential visit complete with the Secret Service; and traffic might be slowed only by the normal congestion that makes summer driving on the Vineyard a stop-and-go endurance test.
Still, "I think the fun and the curiosity and the buzz that comes with this will be missed, quite frankly," said Nancy Gardella, executive director of the Martha's Vineyard Chamber of Commerce.
Dave Gaffey, general manager of Nancy's, said the Obamas have been repeat customers who usually arrive with 10 minutes notice to eat in the dining room or pick up a takeout meal.
"They are just a great group of people," Gaffey said of Obama, his family, and their entourage. "He usually comes in with a large group, and they order a wide variety off the menu and kind of share that — lobster rolls, fried clams, practically one of everything."
The White House declined to comment Monday on the Obama family vacation plans.

The truth is sad and hard to admit. The reason for my kids bathroom ending up in the condition its now in is because eight years ago I was addicted to Meth. I went to Mesa County Jail for one year, and while I was there my house was vandilised. When I was released everyone told me that my home was unfixable. I didn't listen, and since then I have been trying to do the best I can one thing at a time. Everything is slowly coming together, but the kids bathroom. Its too hard for me to do the work myself, and i don't think I will ever have enough money to pay someone. My now teenaged sons share my bathroom with me. We don't even have a door for privacy. Nothing in the kids bathroom works properly except the sink. I shut off the water to that bathroom due to a sewer smell. I really wish the boys had use of their own bathroom again. They are wounderful and forgiving boys, and they deserve it.
Kids can't use their bathroom

Hands Across the Sand/Land is a movement made of people of all walks of life and crosses political affiliations and the borders of the world. This movement is not about politics — it is about the protection of our coastal economies, oceans, marine wildlife and fisheries. It's about preserving our precious drinking water, air and food. The damage that continues to happen in offshore oil drilling accidents, the dangerous process of hydraulic fracturing, the tragedy of the Alberta tar sands mining, mountain top removal mining and the continuing proliferation of coal fired power plants are a threat to all of the above.
Let us share our knowledge, energies and passion for protecting our planet from the devastating effects the burning of dirty fuels present. On May 18, 2013 the people of the world will join hands to champion clean energy solutions to our dirty fuels problem. Embracing a clean energy future now is the path to a sustainable planet. It's a path to ending global warming and climate change. It's a path to a future for our children and grandchildren.
The Movement Started In Florida
In Florida on Saturday, February 13, 2010, a statewide gathering against near and offshore oil drilling occurred. 10,000 Floridians representing 60 towns and cities and over 90 beaches joined hands to protest the efforts by the Florida Legislature and the US Congress to lift the ban on oil drilling in the near and off shores of Florida. Florida's Hands Across The Sand event was the largest gathering in the history of Florida united against expanding oil drilling into Florida's waters. Events were held from Jacksonville to Miami Beach and Key West to Pensacola Beach.
On June 26, 2010, in response to the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Disaster in the Gulf of Mexico, Hands Across the Sand went National and Global. The event was announced and the website went live allowing event organizers sign up only four weeks prior to June 26th. It became the largest gathering of people in the history of the world united against expanding offshore oil drilling and championing clean energy and renewables. Over 1000 events were held worldwide. Events took place in all 50 United States, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. Events were held in 42 countries outside the U.S. including Australia, Bangladesh, Brazil, Belize, Canada, China, Colombia, Costa Rica, Germany, Denmark, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Spain, France, United Kingdom, Greenland, Greece, Croatia, Ireland, India, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Lebanon, Mexico, Malaysia, Nicaragua, Netherlands, Norway, New Zealand, Panama, Peru, Poland, Romania, Sweden, Turkey, Tanzania, and South Africa.
Now is the time for America and global leaders to join hands and steer our energy policy away from our dependence on fossil fuels and into the light of clean energy and renewables.

Good for pricePros: very cheap, HDMI output is useful for home theater systems Cons: not powerful enough for 720p video on windows XP with plenty of ram. Ruins purpose of the HDMI output 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Excellent Small DevicePros: Quality and value. Cons: I don't really see a downside. It shares the same problems as other mini-itx boards, that being things are hard to reach and even my thin fingers needed a pair of jewelry pliers to get everything plugged in. Other Thoughts: I never actually did get Ubuntu 12.04 to play nice with the IGP drivers so I ended up just installing win7 in order to end my software fight and start enjoying my new hardware. 3 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Nice boardPros: Nice board that handles windows 7 x64. I will be running a media server off of mine, it has all of the functionality of a standard mother board and CPU for half the price and with 8 GB of RAM this makes a nice addition to a home media server. Cons: It is to bad that it does not have any USB 3.0 ports and it only has 2 SATA 3Gb/s transfer rate I would prefer it had 4 SATA 6Gb/s connections. 2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Decent little board with limitationsPros: Rather cool and quiet running board using Ubuntu 12.04, even with the cpu fan running full throttle. Idle temps were around 32C, which is pretty decent for a 65nm cpu being cooled by a chipset fan. Cons: HDMI port was bad, filling the screen with nothing but multi-colored bands. Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
life-saver for technical computingPros: A very affordable system that still sports DDR3 memory and HDMI output. A quick trip to the manufacturer web site shows that Win 8 is officially unsupported, while Win XP, Vista and 7 are, both in 32- and 64-bit. Attaching a disk with a Win 8 RC installation (from another computer) allows the system to boot to a working desktop without any driver installation, but YouTube HD videos playback is choppy. Similar story with Win 7 64-bit, but spotless performance in XP 32-bit (after driver installation). The system consumes 30-40W when working and 4 W at idle, the somewhat noisy CPU fan only works during start-up, but is idle during normal operation. Cons: only 2 SATA ports, single expansion slot is PCI Other Thoughts: Scores of computers were bought to control a piece of equipment that usually still works when the original computer failed. This is a great find for those who resist upgrade from Win XP because "if it ain't broken, do not fix it". Apart from spotty graphics (for HTPC use, anyway), it is a cool and compact replacement for a whitebox minitower that failed. Manufacturer Response: 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Good little media boardPros: Inexpensive board that can handle HD video playback. Using this as a Plex Media Player to connect to my server and it handles the Plex environment well (the default theme seems to be slower but I changed to Alaska anyways) and the playback flawlessly. Cons: Not really a con because I expected it given the CPU but working in Windows 7 64bit (which for my use case as a Plex Media Player isn't too often) can be a little slow. I only have 2GB or game so maybe maxing out the RAM and an SSD would help. Definitely NOT a board for daily driver type machine though. Other than that I could maybe say no built in WiFi but hey, for the price what do you really expect? Other Thoughts: For my use case, a Plex Media Player steaming from my server, this board has been the perfect solution. Seriously, RAM is dirt cheap if you don't have some lying around. Same for the PSU and HDD. Can we say $40 media center??? 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Nice little boardPros: Cheap (especially with rebate). Looks to be constructed well. Low power draw. AES acceleration. Serial port. Cons: Not dual core. Other Thoughts: I bought this to use as a custom Linux router. Perfect for that purpose. The VIA Nano CPU has AES instruction support which seems to be working correctly in Linux. This CPU is not the dual core Nano. You might want to take that in to consideration if you were planning to use this for Windows (no extra core to run your virus scanner without slowing down other things). 6 out of 6 people found this review helpful.

A Dog's Journey: Another Novel for Humans
Humans will love this sequel to A Dog's Purpose. Here's a book that I'm pretty certain is best as an audiobook as Buddy narrates about his many dog lives as Molly, Max, and Toby and his continuous intersection with the same family throughout their lives. You'll laugh, smile, and cry ...and drive around the block just to finish the chapter.

CMG vs. ETF Alternatives
Company Description
Steve Ells, Founder, Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer, started Chipotle with the idea that food served fast did not have to be a typical fast food experience. Today, Chipotle continues to offer a focused menu of burritos, tacos, burrito bowls (a burrito without the tortilla) and salads... More

Monday, Dec 98:29 AMRestaurant stocks in focus after McDonald's under-performs in the U.S.
- McDonald's (MCD) falls in early trading after the restaurant chain sees the impact of price increases and a positive mix in the U.S. dwarfed by weaker traffic trends.
- As one of the first reads on the fast-food industry for November, there could be some debate on if McDonald's lost market share in the U.S. or if the whole sector is being pulled down by cautious consumers.
- On watch: Burger chains BKW, WEN, SONC, JACK could see extra volatility due to the poor performance of McDonald's in the U.S. Starbucks (SBUX), Chipotle (CMG), and Panera Bread (PNRA) will also be watched as their performance over the same November period could trail analysts estimates with Black Friday shopping more restrained this year.
- MCD -0.6% premarket.

- National Restaurant Association's Restaurant Performance Index increased 0.7% M/M in October to track at a four-month high.
- Customer traffic improved during the month with more restaurant operators reporting a rise than a drop.
- Pricing in the restaurant sector has held up better than some other discretionary areas where promotional activity has taken over.

Friday, Nov 2910:53 AMOnline restaurant ordering: Who's winning?
- Online ordering continues to be a big topic in the restaurant industry as companies walk the fine line between boosting sales and creating store execution issues.
- Domino's Pizza (DPZ -0.1%) is the chain which has seen the most early success feed down to its bottom line in a meaningful way - although online is also starting to make a contribution at Papa John's (PZZA +0.4%), Panera Bread (PNRA -0.2%), and Chipotle (CMG +0.4%).
- What to watch: Buffalo Wild Wings (BWLD -0.4%) and Cheesecake Factory (CAKE -0.5%) are still feeling their way into online. The pair can't ignore the concept, but their powerful brands are built on the in-restaurant experience.

Monday, Nov 258:22 AMEarly read on Black Friday winners and losers
- Retailers are in a frenzied competition to bring in more Black Friday shoppers by opening their doors on Thanksgiving even though it's a move that might not help their bottom lines.
- Turkey Day: Some research shows the cost of paying employees for the holiday hours and bonus discounts outweighs the incremental sales from being open. Kmart (SHLD), Wal-Mart (WMT), Toys 'R' Us, Target (TGT), Best Buy (BBY), Macy's (M), and J.C. Penney (JCP) may have fallen into the trap.
- The day after: Accenture says retail interest in Black Friday is at a 5-year high and under-30 shoppers in particular consider it an "event" that they can't miss.
- The trend sets up well for some restaurant chains which could see a high rate traffic sans the promotional atmosphere. Starbucks (SBUX), McDonald's (MCD), Panera Bread (PNRA), and Chipotle (CMG) come to mind.

- 2013 restaurant sector superstars Noodles (NDLS) and Wendy's (WEN) are both taking it on the chin in early trading after reporting Q3 earnings which came in below the built-up expectations of some investors.
- Though most of the sector didn't participate in the gaudy rally of the pair this year, several big-name chains are tilting lower premarket on concerns of sluggish traffic and pressured margins.
- On watch: Buffalo Wild Wings (BWLD), McDonald's (MCD), Chipotle (CMG), Panera Bread (PNRA), Burger King Worldwide (BKW), Ruby Tuesday (RT), Jack In the Box (JACK), Bloomin' Brands (BLMN).

Oregon Manifest: Steve Francisco Style
Steve Francisco was geared up for his bid at the first ever Oregon Manifest Constuctor's Challenge Race (presented by Rapha.) The Parlee custom trailer that he is towing uses a Chris King headset for the pivot point on the trailer hitch. Interesting take on that which looks to be part of a rear triangle from another bicycle? No idea what the overall weight was, but after lifting all of the builders bikes into the back of the loading van this was by far the lightest. Not only was Steve decked out in the latest in carbon trailer technology but he was looking the part as well.
Here is his full get up.
Fran is sporting the Rapha Condor Stowaway Jacket. The morning at Vernonia High School started out a little brisk, so this choice was easy seeing as the Stowaway is the lightest and most packable when it comes to jackets.
Classic Jersey it may be hidden under the jacket, but it is still there, and you may not be able to see it at the moment, but the Silk Scarf is barely, almost imperceptibly peeking out above the collar of his jacket. And while you are contemplating the Silk Scarf take a look at what our good friend Kaiko has been doing with it each Friday.
Bib Shorts looking ahead to hours in the saddle makes these bib shorts not only an obvious choice, but a practical one too. Not to mention that ProTan lines go well with Pro Mitts. I guess that just makes sense though. This tan line is enough to make everyone a little jealous and consider a few more hours in the saddle (or in the case of Jon Cannings under a bottle of self tanner.)
Pro Team Mitts go well with the Rapha Condor Stowaway.
Fran was also utilizing the Pro Team Socks to round out his "pro-ness" and as Guy Andrews told me every morning that he saw me out with my tall navy blue socks "they should be white and not so tall." And let me tell you, that guy knows Pro.
Not sure how the Oregon Manifest could handle all of this Pro-ness in one rider? Keep checking back for a view from the course and to find out how Fran made out. I was driving the SAG wagon, Carey SH was stationed at the Beer Pickup Zone and Slate Olson traversed the course in Race Director style.

Does it have to be motion graphics?
Motion Graphics are for newfags, I'm 3d-animating the whole thing. And then I'll replace the whole rest of the tracks with 3d animation as well, just because I'll have gotten started on it.
Well I don't think motion graphics are expected really, they're sending me the rest of the tracks to work with and given the most important factor, the song I was sent (You Are Not Alone), they're going to be fairly simple.

Kathmandu, April 24
President Dr. Ram Baran Yadav has congratulated record-holder mountaineer Appa Sherpa and the team members of the Great Himalayan Trail for the successful completion of their 99-day trekking.
At a programme organized at the Presidents Office, Shital Niwas, on Tuesday, President Dr. Yadav hailed the laudable task of the team for the country and pledged to continue his support for such creative works in the days to come.
Prior to leaving for the trek, the President had handed over the national flag wishing the team success.
On the occasion, mountaineer Sherpa shared his experience of the trek.
Appa, who has scaled the worlds highest peak Mt Sagarmatha or Everest for a record 21 times, went on the 99-day trekking with a view to drawing attention of the international community about the impact of climate change on Nepals mountains and explore the importance of mountainous tourism and trekking in Nepal.
The 1,450-km-long trekking that started from Taplejung had ended at the altitude of 5,500 meters in Darchula via Kanchanjunga, Gaurishanker, Manaslu and Annapurna mountain range.

The Loneliness Of The Long Distance Writer
He is the singer and songwriter with one of America's most highly rated cult bands. He is also one of the most acclaimed US novelists to have emerged in recent times. But it would be hard to find anyone less driven by ego or a desire for celebrity than Willy Vlautin, frontman with Richmond Fontaine. In fact what he hankers after is the opportunity to slip off into the woods alone – and write.

Live each day as if it were your last - we hear that a lot. It's one of those pat phrases offered up as sage advice on how to live a worthwhile and fulfilled life.
But practically speaking, it's kind of hard to really do that, even for those who have actually faced it as reality. I mean, if it were really the last day, would we do the laundry?
But how to live the spirit of that idea, I think that's the real question.
In attempting to live that spirit, I am writing this post from the Seoul airport, on my way to Cambodia. I had an opportunity and I took it. It wasn't quite that simple...my first response was to say no. I thought I had too much to do at home. But really, if it were the last day, would I rather be visiting Angkor Wat or doing laundry?
So here I am, on my way to Cambodia. I will attempt to keep up with posting while I'm traveling, maybe some ideas on staying fit while traveling, maybe just some pictures. I didn't bring my computer - a little freaky for me - but I have my iPhone (no, I don't have an iPad yet). This is my first attempt at posting from my phone - a bit slow, but doable.
Well, plane is boarding. Here's to living as if.

15th March 2000In attendance:
Dr Hany Tatwany (Chair - Saudi Arabia), Mr Pieter Botha (South Africa) , Dr Kanjana Nitaya (Thailand), Mr Charles Evans (Thailand), Dr Susan Lieberman (USA), Dr Richard Ruggiero (USA), Dr Jim Armstrong (Secretariat), Dr Malan Lindeque (Secretariat), Mr Nigel Hunter (Rapporteur).Introduction:
Dr Hany Tatwany welcomed participants and the agenda was confirmed as follows : action items ; ToRs for the Technical Advisory Group ; Funding ; Progress Reports ; MIKE Web Site ; AOB.1. Action Items (as provided in 26th September record):
Item 1. Contact arrangements discussed with Burkino Faso at SC 42. Done but the participation of Burkino Faso in the Teleconference was still proving impossibleItem 2. Secretariat attendance at S.E. Asia Pilot meeting with follow up visits to Range States. Done (see progress report below)
Item 3. Obtain Donor funds for S.E. Asia Pilot. See funding report below.
Item 4. Secretariat to undertake central co-ordination and negotiation of pilot funding. Done.
Item 5. Secretariat to set up and maintain central information system re MIKE contributions. Done
Item 6. Secreatariat to reflect pilot and subregional processes in funding startegy. Done.
Item 7. Secretariat to submit proposal to EC by end October. Done (see funding report below).
Item 8. IUCN to provide data protocols reflecting issues recorded in July minutes. The Secretariat reported that IUCN were interpreting the requirement of MOU item 3f differently to the Subgroup. IUCN believe that by raising the issues of data protocols, they were flagging their difficulty/reluctance in following through with this part of the MOU. It was agreed that the Secretariat would develop an alternative formal process for progressing this issue and would submit ToRs for the Subgroup's endorsement.
Item 9. Obtain funding as soon as possible for the CCU. See progress report below.
Item 10. Rapporteur to request CIC (France) to contact Secretariat directly. Done but no contact has been made as yet.
ToRs for the Technical Advisory Group (TAG):
The Secretariat suggested that it was timely now to establish a MIKE Technical Advisory Group (TAG). Drafted Terms of Reference were submitted to the Sub-group for approval.The ToRs were then discussed by the Sub-group and the following points were agreed :
- In order to ensure that TAG expertise would cover as widely as possible the skills required, the Secretariat would provide, in brackets under section 2a, examples of the type of specialists that should be considered. The USA kindly agreed to work with the Secretariat on this drafting.
- In seeking nominations, the Secretariat would clarify that such nominations could cover socio-economic skills and could, for certain skills, include persons with little elephant experience, per se.
- The Secretariat confirmed that they would, indeed wanted, to use TAG for 'a priori' consultation re field testing.
The Sub-group also confirmed the following nomination processes :
- The Secretariat would send out to all 54 Range States and to IUCN a request for suitable nominations.
- The Secretariat would then scrutinise the nominations and provide the Sub-group with the total list, cross-referenced to their area of skill, in conjunction with Secretariat recommendations for Sub-group approval. Where this process had left area and/or skill gaps, the Secretariat would make its own nominations (to be indicated as such) for consideration by the Sub-group. If gaps still persisted, then the Secretariat would request the Sub-group for nominations.
- The initial term for appointment to TAG would be 2 years, but given that MIKE development was scheduled to be done over a 6 year period, new nominations or extensions would be processed under the nomination procedures agreed here.
It was also clarified that TAG would work to the Secretariat who would refer decisions to the Sub-group, representing the Standing Committee, as mandated by COP 10. However in order to have an open and transparent process, it was agreed that TAG ToRs, as agreed by the Sub-group, together with explantory text should be put on the CITES web site as soon as possible. This should then be followed up by placing the formation of TAG and its subsequent workings on the web-site as a regular routine. This would have the benefit of using the web site as a forum for external comment and criticism on MIKE protocols and processes, which could be referred to TAG for consideration and comment.
The Sub-group concluded by requesting the Secretariat to incorporate the agreed changes to the ToRs, place them on the web and start the TAG formation process, using the procedures agreed above.
2. MIKE Funding:
The Secretariat reported that they had submitted to the EC by 31st October 1999, a proposal for funding MIKE with $8million over 6 years. Due to budget limitations and other administrative procedures, the EC had come back with a request that the Secretariat resubmit for $4 million over 3 years. This was done in November. However the EC were now requesting that the proposal be reworked again by excluding Asia for the time being, as there was no money under the current Asia budget lines. It is therefore likely that approval will be forthcoming by June 2000 for c.$4 million over 3 years for Africa. Because of the extra time required on the EC process and the need to prepare for COP 11, proposals for the World Bank and the GEF have not yet been packaged.Nevertheless other welcome financial support had been forthcoming and this was reflected in the table provided in paragraph 22 of Doc 11.31.2. This was welcomed by the Sub-group, with a small proviso from the US. Whilst the US was committed to providing funds for the S.E.Asia pilot, the figure in the table could only be regarded as indicative at this stage.
3. Progress Reports:
4.1 1S.E. Asia
The Bangkok meeting had received overwhelming support from all participants, including a commitment to participate in the S.E.Asia pilot, with a strong desire to use established regional institutions. Accordingly there was now a developed S.E.Asia programme with a supporting funding proposals. The main problem faced was in site selection, but this was thought to be readily solveable.4.2 W. Africa
The West African regional meeting was held in Ghana in December 1999. All attending countries want to take part, but there was recognition that it was not possible to include everyone in the pilot phase due to budget constraints. The agreement therefore was to concentrate on the cross-border populations with 8 sites being indicated. Accordingly, the programme and budget details were under preparation.4.3 S. Africa
A MIKE workshop was held during November 1999 in Namibia. This was attended by Botswana, Namibia, South Africa and Zimbabwe. The 4 countries are committed to using funds derived from the auctions to fully implementing MIKE in each of their countries, with Namibia providing the co-ordination. Mozambique and Zambia will be invited to the capacity building workshop and it is the intention to support these two range states as fully as possible within the region. Implementation is therefore under way, with no external funding needed.4.4 CCU
The Central Co-ordinating Unit had not evolved as planned, particularly as the funding was lacking and did not seem to be very forthcoming, except a small contribution from Japan. The Secretariat had therefore taken over the CCU role at its own expense and was therefore currently providing all central co-ordination. The money from Japan was being used to further the S.E. Asia programme and budget proposal.5. MIKE Web Site
The Secretariat would like to develop the CITES web site further with MIKE and ETIS information. The ETIS information is under way and the MIKE section has been set up with the provision of Doc 11.31.2. However the Secretariat has held back on the MIKE section, due to an IUCN request that current protocols are not listed until they have received TAG endorsement. Given that TAG will take at least a minimum of two months to set up, the Secretariat would like a Sub-group decision on whether the existing protocols, with suitable caveats, should go on the web site or await TAG scrutiny and endorsement? If the decision was to go ahead now rather than wait, then the Secretariat believed the information would be available before COP 11. The Sub-group was unanimous in its desire to get the information available as soon as possible, with proper caveats that the information was in draft form and may indeed change. This would be particularly advantageous in getting the web site seen as a forum of communication on MIKE with the Secretariat better able to consider and process comments. The Sub-group therefore instructed the Secretariat to get the protocols onto the web site straight away with proper accompanying caveats. It was agreed that the US and the Secretariat would draft the appropriate language for the caveats and that this would be placed on the web site under Sub-group authority.6. Any Other Business:
The next Range State Dialogue Meeting is scheduled for the 6th and 7th April at UNEP HQ in Kenya. Invitations, including to contributing donors, are being finalised. The Secretariat will have documentation available for facilitating discussions re MIKE and other CITES matters. The Standing Committee meeting would take place on the 8th April.7. Next Meeting:
No date was set for the next Sub-group meeting.8. Conclusion:
The Chairman then concluded the meeting by thanking members for their active participation, notwithstanding the early problems of telephone echo.Action Items
Develop an alternative formal process for progressing data handling and ownership issue and submit ToRs for the Subgroup's endorsement [Secretariat].
Provide, in brackets, under section 2a of TAG ToRs, examples of the type of specialists that should be considered [USA/Secretariat].
Incorporate the agreed changes to the ToRs, place them on the web and start the TAG formation process, using the procedures agreed above [Secretariat].
