International Students
Calvary Bible College is authorized by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services to enroll non-immigrant students. The following admission requirements are to be completed:
Step One: TOEFL
[Note: The TOEFL is not required if English is your first language.]
Complete the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) as soon as possible. A minimum score of 80 on the internet-based TOEFL (with a preferred minimum of 20 in each section) or 550 on the paper based TOEFL is required for admission.
Go to www.toefl.org for more information about this test. The Calvary Bible College TOEFL school identification code is 6331.
English language ability may also be determined by passing a full academic year of college-level freshman English with a grade of C or better at an accredited institution of higher education in the United States. ESL classes taken at another college may also be considered.
Step Two: Financial Certification
[Note: Calvary does not sponsor International students, and we have very few scholarships available.]
Calvary Bible College requires a proper and current affidavit of support. The form used for this purpose (International Student Financial Certification Form) is available from the Admissions Office upon receipt of your TOEFL score. You must have the form signed by each sponsor and notarized by a public government official within one year of your intended enrollment.
A student may have one or more sources of funds, but together they must total $16,000 for each school year. Each source must be separately identified, along with the amount each will provide for each year of study. A statement of verification must be submitted from each sponsor's bank or financial establishment. If the student uses any personal funds, he/she must also have a statement of verification from his/her bank or financial establishment.
Certificates of balance are not a substitute for the signed bank portion of the affidavit. If your sponsor's bank is unable or unwilling to sign the form, the bank must submit a letter to the Admissions office, stating its policy.
Step Three: Application
After completing steps 1 and 2, you may request an application packet:
Calvary Bible College
15800 Calvary Road
Kansas City, MO 64147
Phone: 800-326-3960
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
An incomplete application may delay processing, so carefully answer all questions or provide information as requested. The following guidelines also apply to international students:
- You must provide English translated copies of your entire secondary and post-secondary school records from your home country. No admissions decisions will be made until your final transcript(s) has been received. All documents submitted become the property of the college and will not be returned.
- You must provide an English translation of your reference forms (included in application packet).
- A minimum score of 17 on the ACT or 840 on the SAT is required for admission. This requirement is waived if you have completed 12 or more semester credit hours. Information about the ACT or SAT tests may be found on the following websites:
ACT: www.act.org SAT: www.collegebroad.org
Step Four: Acceptance and I-20 Form
If you are accepted, you will receive a letter with a USCIS form I-20 A-B/ID (Certificate of Eligibility for Non-Immigrant [F-1] Student Status – for Academic and Language Students) enclosed.
Upon receipt of the I-20, you will need to obtain a student visa. Take the I-20 to the nearest U.S. Consulate. You must also prove to the consulate that you have the financial resources required for your education and stay in the United States. For more information about becoming an academic student in the United States, visit www.uscis.gov. Please note that you are solely responsible for following immigration laws.

Images: Durango native, U.S. Marine officer plans, controls amphibious exercise
Photo by Sgt. Jacob Harrer
Major Benjamin J. Fiala, air officer, 5th Marine Regiment, and a Durango, Colo., native, recently planned and controlled an amphibious exercise for 1st Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment, at Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Calif., Feb. 4 to 8, 2014. Fiala coordinated different scenarios for the battalion, who performed an amphibious landing and seized terrain against role players acting as opposing forces. The weeklong exercise, or Marine Corps Combat Readiness Exercise, tested the Marines on the tasks they are expected to perform as an infantry battalion, including amphibious operations. After more than a decade of fighting and training for land combat in Iraq and Afghanistan, infantry battalions within 1st Marine Division have reincorporated amphibious scenarios in their training events as part of the U.S. strategic pivot to the Pacific. The MCCRE offers crucial training that prepares the Marines for upcoming deployments around the world aboard U.S. Navy amphibious ships as part of Marine Expeditionary Units.

Media Advisory 06-033 Video Explains What Science Learns From Avian Stars of "Happy Feet" and "March of the Penguins"
Understanding Emperor penguin physiology may one day aid doctors
An Emperor penguin dives through a hole into the water below the McMurdo Sound sea ice.
Credit and Larger Version
November 15, 2006
For b-roll on Betacam SP format or in a high-definition format of Emperor penguins in Antarctica and Q's and A's with Emperor researcher Paul Ponganis, of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, and Roberta L. Marinelli, NSF's biology and medicine program director, contact Dena Headlee, (703)292-7739, email@example.com

Long before they lit up movie screens in animated feature films or enthralled documentary film audiences worldwide with the story of their endless struggle to survive and reproduce, Emperor penguins intrigued early Antarctic explorers.
As movie makers prepare this weekend to release "Happy Feet," about an animated Emperor who loves to dance, and the Hallmark Channel readies the cable-television premier of the documentary "March of the Penguins" on Sat., Nov. 25, 2006, the National Science Foundation (NSF) is making available B-roll of the penguins in Antarctica. The agency is also offering journalists the opportunity to ask Antarctic researchers questions about why the birds still challenge the scientific mind.
On the eve of International Polar Year (IPY), Emperor penguins, which can dive unharmed to depths that no human could survive unaided, still fascinate researchers.
By studying the animals' physiology and the way their bodies respond to the crushing pressure of deep dives, these NSF-funded scientists, who also are medical doctors, may one day provide clues to help improve surgical procedures and anesthesia. The study of Emperors also is very much in the spirit of NSF's IPY theme of attempting to understand what makes the processes of life in the cold and dark unique.
The video describes a fascination with Emperors that dates to the early 20th century. In the mistaken belief that Emperor penguin embryos might shed light on evolutionary links between reptiles and birds, three British explorers set out in 1911, pulling sleds through the unending blackness and almost unbearable cold of an Antarctic winter, to reach the penguins' nesting grounds at Cape Crozier to collect their eggs. An account of the expedition, "The Worst Journey in the World," became an undisputed classic of polar literature. "Antarctic exploration is seldom as bad as you imagine," wrote its author Apsley Cherry-Garrard. "But this journey has beggared our language: no words could express its horror."
Two eggs broke during the return journey. Three were preserved. But by the time the studies of the eggs were published in the 1930s, the hypothetical link between penguins and reptiles had been discounted. The eggs and embryos remain today at the Natural History Museum in London.
International Polar Year begins in March 2007, and will be devoted to advanced scientific exploration at the Earth's poles.

Coptic Academic Urges Christians to Support Revolution and Brotherhood Candidate Morsi
According to Dr. Naguib, an Egyptian Coptic Christian, many of his fellow Copts will choose the Muslim Brotherhood and Freedom and Justice leader Dr. Morsi for president, to protect the revolution.
|Monday, May 28,2012 06:35
Coptic academic Dr. Nagy Naguib, member of the General Secretariat of the Freedom and Justice Party (FJP) in Sharqiya province, assured that Copts are an integral part of the Egyptian people and the fabric of society.
"Copts will not stray from the general discourse of the Egyptian people, who stand firmly with Dr. Morsi against the remnants of the old corrupt regime. The voice of extremism from both sides will have no active role in the management of the country in post-revolution Egypt."
Naguib explained that Morsi has allayed Coptic fears in more than one meeting, expressing his confidence that many Christians will vote for Dr. Morsi in the run-off.
He stressed that the orientations of the Egyptian people is predominantly pro-Morsi, especially since justice is a fundamental component in Morsi's platform. He asserted that Morsi does not call for a religious state, but a civil state with Islamic reference.
"Islamic reference does not frighten, neither Copts nor Muslims. Indeed, Copts have no problem with Islamic values. The Egyptian Church is not inclined towards a particular candidate. In fact, Bishop Bakhomious announced that he will punish clerics who directed or instructed Christians to elect Shafiq or any other specific presidential candidate.
Naguib further affirmed his whole-hearted support for Morsi because he will be the President of all Egyptians, a voice of moderation in the Islamic movement, capable of leading Egypt in the next phase and restoring stability, prosperity, security and safety to the Egyptian street.
Additionally, Naguib explained that Morsi was right at the heart of the revolution, and he presides over a powerful project for the rejuvenation and renaissance of Egypt, that his actions are carefully studied based on institutional, rather than individual values and principles, that he is a university professor who has his weight in university life, and that he has sophisticated administrative skills.

To say the sea at the equator is calm would be a serious understatement. The last two days we have had nothing but seas as glossy as my laptop screen. Despite the lack of wind, the water keeps moving though, gently rolling swells. It is like looking across a desert of low lying blue sand dunes.
The heat, combined with the humidity, is almost unbearable inside the cabin. So now I've taken to writing these updates from my new office location, up in the cockpit. With the breeze generated by the fact of us motoring through the water, conditions are much more tolerable on deck. We also have the sun shade up all day long which helps immensely as well.
Today Pascale did a load of laundry using her blue bucket and plunger. Bruce had hoped to be hoisted up the backstay in order to take a look at our damaged radar unit, but has opted to wait one more day. The radar unit stopped working early on in our passage, and a few days ago, the bracket which attaches it to the backstay seems to have given out and now the whole assembly is just hanging there loosely. Even if we can't fix it out here, it won't matter too much since we are getting close to our destination, and we have ordered a new one which we will pick up when we get there.
We are planning an equator crossing celebration tonight at 6:10pm. Although we are unable to put the Champaign on ice, we will still enjoy a glass or two. Bruce, Francois, and I are planning to swim across the line. We are lucky to be crossing during daylight hours as we hope to see the equatorial line on the water which is created by the unique angle of the sun at this latitude, but which can only be seen right at the equator. If it is not too cloudy, it should be bright enough to be seen in a photograph. Also interesting to note is that the sun is almost directly overhead at noon and that we have almost exactly 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of darkness. The sun rises at 7:30 AM and sets at 7:37 PM. Enough for today, tomorrow we will be updating from the Southern Hemisphere.

I envy your journey you have in front of you,safe sailing ! Enjoy
04/10/2011, Inter Tropical Convergence Zone
We are right smack in the middle of the ITCZ, a.k.a. the Zone, weaving our way between squalls which look like black masses of clouds clinging to the water. There are squalls everywhere, to our left, to our right, and behind us. The trick is to steer the course so there isn't one in front of us. That's easy enough to do in the daytime, but at night we will just have to cross our fingers and keep a double reef in the sails.
Recall, we had to throw out our entire egg supply because the place where they were stored was too hot and humid so they got moldy. I had a dream last night, that I discovered a few dozen eggs in the storage space under our bed. I was thrilled! This is unfortunately impossible since we store tools and materials, not eggs, under our bed, which I realized with deep disappointment as I started to awaken. It was just a dream, alas.
Today we tackled the problem of our forward holding tank which would not empty. This would be the third time I have had to remove that holding tank and clear the blockage. This time we did it a little smarter, by rigging a block suspended over the open sail locker hatch where the tank is located, and using a winch to hoist the (very heavy) half full holding tank onto the deck without spilling its contents on the boat or ourselves. (See the photo that John has posted of this operation)
We managed to get the tank emptied and discovered that the blockage was in the 1-1/2 inch outlet hose. It was blocked with minerals that accumulate due to the chemical interaction of the waste with sea water.
In order to gain access to the holding tank, located in the sail locker at the bow of the boat, it was necessary to completely empty the sail locker of all our other stuff. The sail locker is where we store everything that's bulky. I passed boxes and items aft to John and Pascale who placed the items in our cabin (temporarily). Well guess what I found in one of the boxes I removed from the sail locker....
Two dozen eggs (and not moldy, either)!!!

04/10/2011, in the Inter Tropical Convergence Zone
We are in the Zone, a.k.a. the Doldrums. As darkness fell so did the winds, to less than 6 knots, so we were obliged to motorsail from about 9 PM until Midnight during Francois' watch. There was a light rain. At midnight Francois handed the helm over to me for my Midnight to 3 a.m. watch, saying, "I don't think you'll be needing the foulies, the rain is petering out".
No sooner than Francois had gone down to his cabin than I noticed that the wind was picking up, since I could hear, for the first time this evening, the wind generator running. We had about 12 knots of wind and the rain was starting again. I shut down the engine since it was no longer needed.
By the time I got my foul weather gear on the wind had increased to 20 knots. I watched the knot meter as it rose steadily in just a few minutes, to 25, 30, 35 knots. The boat was screaming along at 8 knots with a double reefed mainsail and jib, making great time. The seas were relatively flat. I steered a southwesterly course that kept the boat on a downwind run with the wind 120 degrees off the bow for the most comfortable ride possible.
Meanwhile visibility was reduced to zero as a huge cloud passed overhead blocking out the starlight and moonlight. I could see nothing but our own bow wave and its phosphorescent trail. We were in one of the ITCZ's famous squalls, known for going from a flat calm to 40 knots in a few minutes. This is exactly what happened.
The squall lasted about an hour. Finally around 1:20 a.m., the winds calmed down to about 16 knots. I could see a patch of stars ahead. As we entered the clear sky area, I looked back, and all you could see was a huge blackness which was the squall we had just been through.
Fortunately, as the sun set earlier in the evening and we doused the spinnaker, we could see some weather systems on the horizon, so we set a double reef in both the mainsail and the jib. If we had not done so I might have had difficulty dealing with those winds and would have needed help to get the sails reefed.

Last night we experienced our first real storm at sea. We could see the clouds building in front of us all afternoon, and by sunset we were just entering into the thick of it. The clouds were dark, and spread for miles on either side of us. Just as we started eating dinner the rain began falling. The boat was drenched by about 10:00pm and the rain stopped. We thought that was all the rain, but things really started picking up when Bruce started his watch at midnight. Within about 10 minutes we went from motoring in calm seas to over 30 knots of wind with pounding rain. The strong wind lasted for about an hour, and slowly settled back down over the following six hours.
Now that we are in latitude two degrees north, the only wind we see is when we are near or in a squall, most of which are quite small. Since there is no wind we have started burning our diesel supply to get us through the equatorial zone. We will probably need to motor for about three days which will take us far enough south so that we pick up the southern Pacific trade winds. Those should start kicking in around two or three degrees south. Here, there is so little wind that the water becomes shiny and oily looking.
Our project for today was clearing a clogged line in the forward head's holding tank. This meant mostly a repeat of what we did a few weeks ago. The tank was about half full this time, so slightly less heavy, but still too heavy for one person to lift. Bruce rigged a lifting line so that Francois and I were able to raise the tank out of the sail locker, onto the deck. Then came the messy job of emptying the tank overboard. This turned out to be less messy than expected since we hose clamped a plastic Zip-Loc back over the outlet, and when the tank was on its side, we just punctured the bag with a screwdriver. The bag was ripped off by the pressure and everything drained pretty quickly. It turns out there were hard deposits built up in the drain hose, and after removing those, everything flowed smoothly. Bruce has now reworked the drain system so that the holding tank is now bypassed. He can pretty easily re-connect to the tank when needed. He also has ordered spare parts so that he can rebuild the hose configurations to make things easier to clean out in the future. These are just some of a bunch of parts which will hopefully be waiting for us when we arrive in Hiva Oa.

Today marks the second week since we left Mexico. We are doing fine, sailing under clear skies with the spinnaker at 4 deg 12 min N, 127 deg 05 min W. We have not hit the doldrums yet, though we had a brief period of rain last night.
We are getting used to not having refrigeration, in fact it has some merits. We have a surplus of electric power in the afternoons now thanks to the solar panels, so we run the watermaker and the inverter all day. Afternoons are now "movie time".
I have ordered a new refrigeration evaporator to be delivered by US Mail to Hiva Oa. Working on the same for the radar.

We ended up spotting the Japanese fishing vessel just at sunset last night. We tried talking to them on the radio, but no response unfortunately. It would have been nice to talk with them and learn more about their activities. Still, it was nice seeing them, knowing we are not completely alone out here.
We just finished a delicious coleslaw salad lunch. The cabbage has held up very nicely. Our apple supply is also doing well. We moved almost all the apples into our outdoor nets which should help prolong their freshness even more. And we still have a nice supply of fresh tomatoes. Buying them completely green was a smart move as now they are just about ripe.
Today marks our two week anniversary of being at sea. It seems the second week went by faster than the first. Hopefully the third week will also go by fast enough. We are definitely looking forward to making landfall. Our friends on another boat who arrived about a month ago are waiting for us and keep emailing with tantalizing information about the islands.

We have made our final turn to cross the ICTZ (Intertropical Convergence Zone). We have gone out to this position to make the crossing because this is where it is supposed to be the narrowest. The ICTZ, a.k.a. The Doldrums, is notorious for its utter lack of wind punctuated by 40 knot squalls and electrical storms. We hope to get across quickly and not see too much bad stuff. We are carrying enough fuel so that we can motor if the winds die.
Today has been fairly moderate winds in the 16 knot range.
We saw a ship on the chartplotter AIS for the first time since we left Mexico. It's about 8 nautical miles away, too far to get a visual. We have yet to actually see a single boat or ship on our passage. The AIS tells us it's a Japanese fishing vessel. I fantasized about asking them to give us some ice to chill our beer .
We had a bad surprise this morning. I went to get some more eggs from storage in the sail locker, and all the remaining eggs were covered in mold. We had to toss out 4 dozen eggs and now have no more. We made two mistakes: the eggs were stored in the sail locker, which is like a greenhouse with its large plexiglass hatch, and they were stored in a covered plastic storage container. Moral to the story: store eggs in a cool, well ventilated place.
Though we won't have eggs for breakfast anymore, we have plenty of pancake mix (of the "just add water" variety). We'll get by.

After days and days of seeing no other traffic whatsoever out here, our AIS system has alerted us to a 140 foot long Japanese fishing boat, Matsuhiro Maru, about 7 miles ahead of us. The AIS system shows the location of commercial ships on our chartplotter. I was hoping to get a nice close up photo for this blog posting, but so far no sign of it. If we do end up seeing it, I will post the photo tomorrow. Regardless, maybe this is an indication that we are getting closer to civilization.
Yesterday we spent most of the day going more west than south, but today we are back headed almost directly south and should be at the equator by Monday. As we continue south the wind strength will continue to weaken until at the equator we will have almost no wind. That actually will be something of a nice break as we have had some fairly good sized seas the last few days. Everything is harder to do and takes more energy when the seas are rough. The sky is mostly clear, so we are keeping our fingers crossed that we won't have many squalls around the equator.
Since leaving Mexico we have sailed over 1500 miles. This is roughly the same distance from San Francisco to Chicago. Only about 1100 miles left to go. Roughly, San Francisco to Cabo San Lucas.

text: Eastern North Carolina endured a very wet fall and winter. In fact, it was so wet that many folks thought it would never get dry again. It still isn't what I would call dry, but the weather pattern has returned to more normal conditions. Wet conditions persisted through March but April has been a bit drier than normal. Soil conditions for farming and gardening have generally been good. It is not unusual to have a late frost and freeze but most of our area avoided that problem this year. Winter weather warmed quickly into spring conditions during the middle of March. At the same time we also began to see less rainfall than the preceding several months. All of this has allowed farmers to get in the fields and plant many of their crops. Many locations received a quarter to half-inch of rain on Wednesday but not enough to keep folks out of their gardens or fields. More showers are likely over the weekend but temperatures will be quite mild to warm. The May forecast calls for near normal temperatures and rainfall. Let's hope that forecast comes true.

Sgt. First Class Norris Galatas, a soldier from the 150th Combat Engineer Battalion who was badly injured in an explosion in Iraq, was remembered in a real way by his friends this weekend.
Through a newspaper article, Terry and Leann Sande saw a connection with Galatas.
"Once you become a horse person and you see someone in need you don't even about it. You just do it," said Terry Sande.
But it was more than just a love of horses that brought these two families together. It was also the military. Terry served in the Navy and his son is a Marine.
"I know if something happened to my husband, I'd want the community to help me," said Leann Sande.
And the community did come out, to help the Galatas family build a fence for its beloved horses. Janis could not do the work by herself.
"I know nothing about fence building. I can't even nail a nail," said Janis Galatas. "That was Norris' thing. But these people are doing a great job."
And these new friends called the project fun, instead of work. The fence was supposed to be a surprise for Norris when he gets to come home in February, but the secret's out.
Galatas' injuries were very severe, and in the last several months he has undergone sixteen surgeries. Janis jokingly refers to Norris as a POWR, or Prisoner of Walter Reed (Army Hospital).

-- Valdosta, Ga. -- July 1, 2012 --
Some Georgia residents will soon be taking tests. From now on anyone that is applying for welfare and food stamps will have to pass a drug test. If you fail you'll be ineligible for benefits for a month. If you fail a total of 3 times, you'll be ineligible for a year, which has many in the community divided.
Valdosta resident Joseph Alvarez said "parents, if they're receiving assistance from the government such as welfare, such as food stamps, any type of assistance if they are putting that money to good use and they're helping their children out, they're families than they have nothing to worry about."
Another Valdosta Resident, Charles Todd Sr., said "It's rather unfair in my opinion because we don't require drug tests to get tax breaks for you know, people who can afford certain luxuries in life and to require drug tests for people that are the neediest, I think it's unfair."
Other new laws include a 50%reduction in unemployment benefits.
Valdosta Resident Charles Todd Jr. said "those cuts they kind of hit deep. Especially for those people that aren't well established, the younger generation."
Many opponents believe the law to drug test welfare applicants will be challenged in court. Despite devided opinions one thing is certain, as of July first 2012 these bills are now law.
In all Governor Deal signed more than 500 bills into Georgia law following the 2012 session.

I am setting up a little service to allow people to run temporary Minecraft servers on a spare box that's not being put to much use.
The .jar that will start up the Minecraft server will be uneditable, as in they can't upload a new .jar and run that in its place. However, the .jar will be the Bukkit Mod/Wrapper for Minecraft servers, which allows the loading of plugins that are in the form of .jars. What's stopping someone from creating their own plugin and using it to spawn more servers?
How can I prevent someone from using a server plugin to create another server process? I am already planning to make it so that each server will be ran under it's own user account, which wont be accessible to login from.

DETROIT (AP) — A court record obtained by a newspaper says a 12-year-old Detroit boy who was missing for more than a week before he was discovered in his own basement told investigators his stepmother sent him there.
The petition filed Friday in Wayne County juvenile court by Children's Protective Services was obtained by the Detroit Free Press (http://on.freep.com/1yVgFpW).
According to the newspaper, the document says Charlie Bothuell V was placed in the basement behind boxes and totes by his stepmother, Monique Dillard-Bothuell, and told "not to come out, no matter what he hears."
Charlie was found Wednesday in the bowels of the multiple-unit condo building where he lived with Dillard-Bothuell and his father, Charlie Bothuell IV.
The Associated Press left messages Friday with Dillard-Bothuell, Charlie Bothuell IV and Bothuell's lawyer, Mark Magidson.

Most second wave CCGs have authorisation conditions imposed
Authors: Helen Jaques
Publication date: 26 Jan 2013
More than two thirds of clinical commissioning groups (CCGs) in the second wave of groups authorised by the NHS Commissioning Board have had conditions imposed on their new status.
Of the 67 CCGs in the second wave, 45 have been authorised with conditions, meaning that they will receive some formal support to help them fully meet all the criteria. Nineteen of the groups met all 119 authorisation criteria and have been authorised with no conditions.
The CCGs authorised to date cover almost half of England's local health communities. Those authorised in the second wave will provide health services to more than 18 million people. The 34 CCGs authorised in the first wave in December last year[1] will provide services to around 10 million people.
The NHS Commissioning Board expects that 211 CCGs will be authorised in total, with the remaining 110 to be authorised over the next two months.
Most of the CCGs in the second wave authorised were given between one and 10 conditions. However, Dartford Gravesham and Swanley CCG must meet 22 conditions to be fully authorised.
NHS Nene CCG, NHS Herts Valleys CCG, and NHS Medway CCG have been authorised with "directions." These are legally binding instructions that formalise the support the groups need for them to meet the conditions of their authorisation. Directions can be used to stop a CCG exercising particular functions and set out how another CCG or the NHS Commissioning Board will carry out those functions.
Barbara Hakin, the NHS Commissioning Board's national director for commissioning development, said that it is to be expected that CCGs would be at different stages at the time of authorisation.
"At the point of authorisation, a CCG has sufficient building blocks in place to become a mature and developed commissioning organisation," she said. "Even those CCGs authorised with no conditions at all will be working to make further improvements in the future, and the NHS Commissioning Board will continue to support all CCGs in their development."
The CCGs together will take over £65bn of the £95bn NHS commissioning budget from 1 April 2013. Budding CCGs are assessed over a five month period by the NHS Commissioning Board to determine whether they meet more than 100 criteria, organised in six domains.

For the first time perhaps, Indias agricultural products exports have received global attention with an annual shipment of $32 billion during 2011-12. With exports for the current fiscal inching towards the $40 billion mark, the government has its task cut out for the implementation of a robust system where shipments of products take place without any restrictions. Sandip Das and Kirtika Suneja spoke to Asit Tripathy, joint secretary (agriculture), ministry of commerce, who is also the chairman of the Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (APEDA), on issues concerning food exports. Excerpts:
There has been a huge jump in Indias agricultural and processed food exports. What factors have contributed to this surge in exports?
The exports of agricultural products have more than doubled in the last four years. The exports turnover during 2011-12 has been $32.62 billion. The growth trend continues as exports of agricultural and processed foods have grown by more than 23% during April-December 2012 compared to the same period last year. The export value during April-December 2012 is reported at $28.9 billion.
As per the latest statistics released by the WTO for the global trend, Indias share in global agricultural exports has gone up to more than 2% at present. There has been a significant growth in this share in the last couple of years, which is important keeping in view the large domestic demand for agricultural products.
What are the key commodities whose exports have seen a surge in the last five years? What could be the reasons for the surge in shipments?
Major performers are Basmati and non-Basmati rice, bovine meat, guargum, peanuts, wheat and processed food exports. One of the major contributors to the growth in the last two years has been the policy decision announced by the government, particularly in September 2011, to permit exports of wheat and non-Basmati rice. There may not be no period like 2011 to 2013 when there was no Minimum Export Price (MEP) regime on various food items including Basmati rice. The growth in the export of processed food products has been mainly coming from initiatives by the government through APEDA and other agencies in the area of infrastructure and quality development.
Could you elaborate on the infrastructure that supported Indias agricultural goods exports?
Infrastructure for common use, such as integrated pack houses for fruits and vegetables and centres for storage of export cargo of perishable agri-products at the airports, have contributed significantly

New York's Big Apple Store Turns 8 Today
Josh Wolonick
It's difficult to remember that Apple's retail plan was actually counterintuitive back in 2006.
On Friday, May 19, 2006, exactly eight years ago today,
(NASDAQ:AAPL) opened its flagship Apple Store on Fifth Avenue in New York City. The impressively large subterranean retail space, and the even more impressive aboveground glass-cube facade, have made the store a symbol of Apple's success over the last decade or so. It's the highest-grossing store in New York City, and for its square footage, it's the most profitable store in the world.
Like so many of the innovative products to come out of Apple's renaissance, this magnum opus of a tech retail store owes its existence to the late Steve Jobs. As former Apple Senior Vice President of Retail Ron Johnson has said, "It was really Steve's store." Back in a time when it was still considered counterintuitive to sell computers and high-priced accessories in a store completely devoted to them, Jobs pushed for a store that would not only offer consumers the ability to buy Apple products directly, but would also captivate pedestrians (in a part of New York that's certainly not lacking in captivating architecture and attractions). As Luke Dormehl of
Cult of Mac
wrote this morning, "It's a classic example of the Jobsian belief in functional form: that good design isn't just about how something looks, but how it works."
In fact, this meeting of form and function worked so well that not only is the store the highest-grossing store in New York, it's also one of the
most-photographed places
in Manhattan.
The building's biggest change came in 2011 when significant improvements in glass manufacturing made it possible to simplify the design of the facade and reduce the number of panes from 90 to just 15 (Jobs wanted just four panes, but he conceded when he realized his audacious idea would mean cutting the size of the building by 1 foot). Even more impressive, these improvements to the glassmaking process were led, at least in part, by Apple's own engineers.
The original design with 90 panes, and the renovated version with 15. Source: MacRumors
Reportedly, Johnson debated the glass renovation with Jobs, arguing that the facade would be less impressive with 15 panes than with its original 90. As he told Jobs' biographer Walter Isaacson, "[In] the original incarnation, it [glittered] like a jewel box. I think if we get the glass too transparent, it will almost go away to a fault." For better or worse, Jobs, of course, stuck to his guns.
Jobs' vision was bold then, but he still recognized
limits. As he told the
New York Times
three days before the original opening of the store, "We wouldn't do [this] in Palo Alto, but this is New York."
Now times have changed: There are currently five Apple stores in New York, with
two more opening next year
. There 254 stores in the US, 421 worldwide, and when it comes to bold architecture, the company's really just getting started: The company's extremely futuristic, UFO-esque
Apple Campus II
, which is being built only 8 miles away from Palo Alto, will be Apple's boldest building yet. When completed, it will owe its existence to the great Apple resurgence, led by Jobs, that the Fifth Avenue store continues to symbolize.

Like other physiotherapists across the country, Linda Adamson of Thunder Bay, Ontario, can count on seeing a few sore backs and shoulder tendonitis this spring. That's because people don't always limber up before attacking their gardens each year, she says. "The beauty of gardening is that it takes you through the full body range of movements—standing, squatting and bending. But as with any physical exercise, it's wise to ease into it," says Adamson.
"If you have a back problem, or to prevent one, the number one rule is to break up your day," she advises. Adamson, who is also a Master Gardener, paces herself by doing all the prep work—such as walking about the garden to plan out her day—before she starts digging and planting. And that's after doing a few warm-up stretches first. She's also careful about moving heavy items.
"When you bend to do a job, you add 100 per cent more of a load to your back than when you're standing; bending combined with twisting adds an additional 600 per cent, and that's before factoring in the weight of the soil or whatever it is you're lifting." She recommends using wheelbarrows, with two wheels at the front for better balance, or garden carts to move things about. If you do lift heavy items, make sure your knees are bent so your back is straight, and avoid twisting or reaching. Move with the item; keep it in front of you and close to your body.
April 24 to May 24 is National Physiotherapy month. For more information check out the Canadian Physiotherapy Association's website at www.physiotherapy.ca
Tool time
The right tools are your best friends for avoiding injury in the garden, says physiotherapist Linda Adamson. Herewith, a few of the Canadian Physiotherapy Association's top tool tips.
• Make sure gardening tool handles are comfortable to grasp.
• Use telescopic or extended handles to eliminate strain from reaching. Watering wands, for example, are ideal for hanging baskets.
• Keep digging and cutting tools sharp to reduce the amount of effort required.
• Use knee pads or kneeling stools when working at ground level. Kneeling stools also provide support when you stand up.

I am trying to get ZCS 4.5.6 to authenticate against my external Novell eDirectory (LDAP) server. In the Configure Authentication section of the admin URL I use the following LDAP filter:
And this works successfully in the test in the admin GUI. However, when I attempt to log in to my ZCS site (non admin GUI) using my LDAP username/password it fails. A network sniffer shows that Zimbra isn't even attempting to talk to my LDAP server (again the test works from the admin URL and a network sniff shows the traffic), So why isn't my ZCS login page attempting to talk to my external LDAP source?? Thanks in advance!!

Hot answers tagged caching
This variant should do what you want. g[x_Real] := h[Round[x,0.01]]; h[x_] := h[x] = Total[Table[x, {100000}]] Your Interpolation idea might give better accuracy though, if the function inquestion is sufficiently well behaved on your grid.
Please note that parts of the explanations and initialization code is shown together with the main function code, as a single large code block. I will appreciate any help on this matter - I am quite confused, perhaps overlooking something obvious here. Preamble While the question has been answered already, the delays with loading built-in data are a ...
Initializing is not the same as downloading: I believe you are witnessing the data being unpacked for use.
Since Dan's already taken my initial solution, here's another approach that additionally allows you to specify the precision: f[x_, tol_] := f[Round[x, tol]] f[x_] := f[x] = Total[Table[x, {100000}]]
Completely restarting the kernel will of course work. If we don't restart the kernel, then we need to clear all caches. The caches used for symbolic and some numeric calculations can be cleared using ClearSystemCache[].

You can introduce a second symbol as Daniel shows, but I am stingy with symbols and prefer this: g[x_?NumericQ] := g[{Round[x, 0.01]}]; m : g[{x_}] := m = Total[Table[x, {100000}]] You could use any head for this, even a string: g[x_?NumericQ] := g[ "rounded"[ Round[x, 0.01] ] ]; m : g["rounded"[x_]] := m = Total[Table[x, {100000}]] Delving into the ...
You can turn off caching in graphs by setting the system options: SetSystemOptions["GraphOptions" -> "CacheResults" -> False]

When experimenting with Mathematica's caching, sometimes it can be clearer to look at memory usage rather than timing.

Templates for Router Success
- • Choose Your Equipment
- • Make Your Preparations
- • Now, Cut It Out
Make Your Preparations
In most cases, 1/4" tempered hardboard makes the best choice for template material. It's inexpensive and easy to work with.
How are you going to draw the shape you want? If you're not too handy with a pencil, you can find lots of useful samples from scrollsaw pattern books and kids' coloring books.
Print out the shape, trace it, or copy it on a photocopying machine. Doing this enables you to enlarge or reduce it. Remember that the diameter of the template bushing limits your ability to rout into narrow slots and sharp inside curves. You might have to modify the shape slightly.
Affix this pattern to your template material with spray adhesive. Cut around it with a scrollsaw. To make usable positive and negative pieces, drill a 1/16" hole on the pattern line, thread your scrollsaw blade through, and begin to cut, as shown in the photo at left. You'll have a positive template that you can use to make a raised shape, and a negative one that's suitable for making a recessed version of that same shape. After completing the cut, remember to file or sand smooth the tiny dent left by the starter hole.
If you don't have a scrollsaw, take great care with a handheld jigsaw, and finish up with a coping saw if necessary. Carefully clean up any rough spots with files and sandpaper to guarantee a smooth finished product.
Read reviews (or add your own) of scrollsaws
Buy spray adhesive from Rockler
You can also use a dremel tool to produce sharper inlay cuts2/17/2015 06:18:40 PM Report Abuse
I do allot of scroll work and inlay the piece into the side of the box. The bushings and templates come in real handy, but trying to make the templates can be a pain and inaccurate. If you can get the use of a cnc machine it is much easier. I personally do not have a cnc machine, so I provided the material and had my son make them at his tech school.3/29/2012 10:18:00 PM Report Abuse
With guides, you can adjust the depth of cut to suit your needs. With bits with bearings you are limited to minor depth adjustments based upon the thickness of the template and length of the cutting bit.9/10/2010 06:45:32 PM Report Abuse

This is a dereference of null pointer problem - in both the ANSI C & gSoap domains:
I am using the following public WSDL:
and have tested its behavior using soapUI.
I created client-side only ANSI C bindings using the wsdl2h and soapcpp2 utilities.
My problem:
In previous gsoap projects, results structures in the client soap_call functions (the fifth argument) required no initialization other than something like:
struct ns2__countryInfoByIanaResponse out, *pOut
pOut= &out;
this has always been sufficient until this project.
The client soap_call looks like this:
soap_call_ns2__countryInfoByIana(&soap, NULL, NULL, pIn, pOut); /* SOAP 1.2 RPC return element...*/
pIn for this project is defined as a char *, populated with a two character IANA code such as "us", or "nz". The return structure pOut for this particular call is shaped like this:
struct ns2__countryInfoByIanaResponse
struct ns1__CountryData *countryinfo;
With ns1__CountryData shaped like this:
struct ns1__CountryData
char *ianacode; /* required element of type xsd:string */
char *countryname; /* required element of type xsd:string */
float latitude; /* required element of type xsd:float */
float longitude; /* required element of type xsd:float */
A call to this function from my application is therefore set up like this:
//declare response structure:
struct ns2__countryInfoByIanaResponse o, *pO;
void main(void)
pO = &o;
if(GetCountryInfo(buf, pO)==0)
pO->countryinfo->countryname; **Error Occurs Here...**
The error occurs at pO->countryinfo as a dereference of null pointer
GetCountryInfo is defined here:
int DLL_EXPORT GetCountryInfo(char *pIn, struct ns2__countryInfoByIanaResponse *pOut)
int status = 0;
size_t len=2048;
char buf[2048];
if (soap_call_ns2__countryInfoByIana(&soap, NULL, NULL, pIn, pOut)== SOAP_OK)
status = 0;
//soap_print_fault(&soap, stderr);
soap_sprint_fault(&soap, buf, len);
MessagePopup("soap error", buf);
status = 1;
return status;
So, this seems to be a combination ANSI C/gSoap question: Other projects in the past, with very similar output structure shapes (i.e. structures containing structures containing char *) returned fully populated results when initialized with nothing other than what I have shown above.
Any ideas? Please let me know if I can provide any further details. Thanks.

Planning commission deals setback to Vinsetta Garage in battle over new parking lot
BERKLEY, Mich. (WXYZ) - A popular Berkley restaurant hit another road block in trying to get a new parking lot to accommodate the crowds at their place.
Things didn't go well for Vinsetta Garage at a planning commission meeting last night.
People living by the restaurant are calling them a bad neighbor because, they say, they're tired of dealing with litter, drunks and traffic congestion.
They made their voices heard last night at the meeting.
"i fear a change like this will affect the safety of my child and her ability to ride up and down the block," one resident said.
People packed the Berkley planning commission meeting - most of them hoping to halt the restaurant's plans to expand their parking.
The owner of Vinsetta Garage purchased three homes along Oxford Street and when he purchased a fourth, the planning commission waited to approve any new requests until they heard from residents living along the street and in the neighborhood.
The proposed new lot can park 50 cars. The city wants Vinsetta Garage to look at another option closer to their restaurant on Eaton Street, but it's not as practical for the eatery.
"I think now we go to city council and see what they have to say," said Vinsetta owner Curt Catallo. "That's the beauty of this democracy is that they have a decision to make. We just hope we still have a chance to make that decision and get those cars off of Eaton and Oxford Street."
The planning commission did not make a decision last night. But, the issue still goes to city council; the commission recommends that city council denies the zoning request.

Service Ride Control 94 Eldorado
Hi, Service Ride Control is on. The guy I bought the car from says it is because of the chrome wheels and the sensor not getting a good contact. Is this possible? When I run the system monitor I get no codes.
Re: Service Ride Control 94 Eldorado
Im not sure I agree on the correlation between the chrome wheels and the sensor thing........
How many miles does you car have on it, and have the struts ever been serviced???

I have a problem with the chrome wheel correlation too. According to the factory manual the diagnostic chart for "SERCIVE RIDE CONTROL message displayed, no RSS codes set" is basically to check the 2 fuses for the RSS system. One is fuse B11 in the engine compartment, the other is fuse A3 in the trunk compartment.
Good luck.

Hi ! I also have a "Service ride control" message on my Deville 94. My mechanician told me it's because of the shocks. They changed it and put jobbers instead off "cadillac shocks". Maybe he's right .... maybe not !
Peace !!
PS: Tell me if those fuses fixed the message !

service ride control
my car has the same problem yet it seems to be caused by driving in wet weather. it used to say "service ride control" when i would drive and the roads were wet or it was raining. this would show for a couple of days and then dissapear. i have tried to disconnect the electrical plugs in the fender well and put electrical grease in to keep the water out but this has not seemed to fix the problem. unfortunately, as of now, "service ride control" has been showing for about a month and a half reguardless of weather conditions. i have a buddy who works on cadillacs and he said that most of them that come in show the same problem and even upon resetting the codes, it will reappear. i find this problem very annoying and if yall find out what the culprit is then please let me know. btw, i have chorme rims also but this is the first time i have heard of that as being the culprit.
good luck and keep me posted.
also i found some info here that may help http://www.automotiveforums.com/t66411.html

Re: Service Ride Control 94 Eldorado
Did anyone ever find a way to disable the service ride control message?
I have non-cad parts and my mechanic cannot stop the message.
It is a 94 Cad Eldo TC
Re: Service Ride Control 94 Eldorado
Also had a Service Ride Control message on my 94 Concours. Turned out to be the left-rear accelerometer. Unfortunatly the dealership no longer stocks them and GM doesn't manufacture them however, junkyards do have them and I have been recently informed there is an aftermarket company that makes them.
Re: Service Ride Control 94 Eldorado
Guys Please pull the codes and post them up here. I have done a LOT of research on the RSS system and I could help you get the message to go away. The first step is pulling the codes.
Here's how:

Re: Service Ride Control 94 Eldorado
I pulled my codes and was wondering if you could tell me what I need to do. I have a feeling the front struts are bad since they are very bouncy and I also know the rear air compressor is not working. Here is what appeared when I ran the onbourd diagnostics:
Code P052 History
Code P055 Current
Code I039 History
Code I052 History
No ACP Codes
No SIR Codes
I thanks you in advance for any help in what I need to do next.
Re: Service Ride Control 94 EldoradoOriginally Posted by Krashed989
Re: Service Ride Control 94 EldoradoOriginally Posted by ticker52
P052-----PCM Memory Reset (from disconnecting the battery)
P055-----Closed Throttle Angle Out of Range [TPS] (might be time to clean out the throttle body)
I039-----Loss of Road Sensing Suspension Data (where your SRC message is coming from)
I052-----Keep Alive Memory Error (also from disconnecting the battery)
For your SRC problem, I would first check fuses C5 and A3 in the engine compartment. If one of them is blown, it means that there is a short to ground in the corresponding wire.... If neither of them is blown, I would go on and check the ground to the RSS module... if that doesn't help we'll go on from there.Originally Posted by M.A.C
Although, you should check the wireing first: Just stick one ohmmeter probe in a terminal on the plug and the other to something that is grounded, if you get 5 ohms or less with any of them, you know you have a grounded wire rather than an internal problem with the ELC compressor.
Re: Service Ride Control 94 EldoradoOriginally Posted by Krashed989
I'm going to follow-up on your advice. If it turns out there is an internal short to ground, I take it that the compressor must be replaced?

Service Ride Control 94 Sedan Deville
I looked at the fuse box under the hood and the C5 and does not exist. Along with the C4, C6 and C7. All of these are listed on the diagram as the struts. I have no inputs for fuses in thos spots.
The A3 which is the PCM is a good fuse.
So, is there anything else to check?Originally Posted by Krashed989

Working At Home For NFL Official
From St. Joseph, Missouri
This is George Hayward's 20th year working as an NFL official.
But it's the first time he's worn his NFL stripes and blown his pro whistle while working in his hometown of St. Joseph. On top of that, he was working on the campus of his alma mater, Missouri Western State University.
"When I came here for my freshman year in 1970, we had a double-wide trailer as the student center," Hayward said Friday, taking part in a four-day stay with the three other officials at the Chiefs training camp.
Led by referee Carl Cheffers and including head linesman Heyward, umpire Undrey Wash and back judge Todd Prukop, the striped shirts met on Thursday night with the Chiefs players and coaches. They explained some of the rules changes and points of emphasis for this season with the officials.
They met on Friday with the media in camp and did the same thing.
For Hayward it was an easy road trip. He lives in St. Joe and like everyone else in this community he's thrilled that the Chiefs have come for training camp.
"The town is just so excited about them being here and it's great to turn on ESPN and the NFL Network and hear people talking about my hometown," Hayward said. "There were a lot of people that worked very hard to make it happen and I'm sure that right now they are glad they did.
"It's really given the city a shot in the arm."
Hayward played football at Missouri Western and after his playing days ended, he moved into the world of officiating, joining the NFL ranks in 1991. He's annually one of the highest ranked officials, as he's worked at least one game in the playoffs every year he's been employed. He's worked several conference championship games and he was part of the crew that worked Super Bowl XLI in Florida between Chicago and Indianapolis in February 2007.
Last year, Hayward was part of Mike Carey's crew. This season he will be working with referee Peter Morelli.
And, what a way to start a season – being able to work in his hometown with an NFL team.
"I never believed I would see this," said Hayward. "It's really a great, great thing."

Quarterback Cyler Miles, from Mullen High School in Denver, is Washington's fourth commitment for the Class of 2012.
Sophomore Keith Price was named Washington's starting quarterback at the end of spring practice, making him the for-the-moment heir apparent to Jake Locker.
The Huskies, however, are continuing to stockpile quarterbacks, the latest coming Friday when UW received a commitment from Cyler Miles of Mullen High School in Denver, where he will be a senior this fall.
The 6-foot-4, 220-pounder is the second quarterback to commit for the Class of 2012, joining Mercer Island's Jeff Lindquist, who committed in late April. Players cannot sign binding letters of intent until Feb. 1.
That gives UW the prospect of five scholarship quarterbacks for 2012, all of whom would be juniors or younger — Price, Nick Montana (currently a redshirt freshman), incoming freshman Derrick Brown who signed last February, and Lindquist and Miles.

Miles, however, said he isn't worried about the numbers.
"I think every school, there is another quarterback that is going to be there," Miles said in a telephone interview Friday. "That wasn't a big factor. You're going to have to compete wherever you go, that's how I look at it."
Miles also had offers from Illinois, Tennessee, Arkansas, Florida and Colorado, where his father Brian played running back.
But he said Colorado, which recently received a commitment from California quarterback Shane Dillon, didn't feel right.
He visited UW during spring practice and said, "I loved everything about it. It just seemed to fit. I could really see myself there for the next four, five years. I narrowed the schools down and I just decided that's where I had the best relationship with the coaches and the players. I loved being around the guys. That's how I determined the decision."
Rivals.com rates Miles as a four-star quarterback while Scout.com has him at three stars and the No. 15 QB overall.
He was 144 of 212 passing last season (67.9 percent) for 2,114 yards and 20 touchdowns while also rushing for 255 yards and six touchdowns for Mullen, a private Catholic school that won the state 5A title.
Current UW receiver Devin Aguilar also attended Mullen, and Miles said that helped in the early learning process about Washington.
What also helped was seeing the Huskies on the field the past few years.
"Watching Jake Locker play, that was probably the initial thing," he said. "And seeing the pro-style offense they run. It's similar to what we run here. I just kind of kept looking into it and everything fell into place. I fell in love with the place."
Washington has had just three scholarship quarterbacks on the roster during the first two years of coach Steve Sarkisian's era. The Huskies will also have just three on scholarship in 2011.
Miles is the fourth overall commitment for UW's Class of 2012.

Ford Motor Co. contributed $100 million to its worldwide defined benefit plans in the third quarter, according to its earnings report released Oct. 26.
The company's total contribution to its defined benefit plans year-to-date as of Sept. 30 was $800 million, confirmed John Stoll, a Ford spokesman. Stoll said Ford will provide a geographic breakdown of its pension contributions at the end of the fiscal year.
Ford had $38.6 billion in U.S. defined benefit plan assets as of Sept. 30; the global total could not be learned by deadline.
Later this week, Ford will use cash to pay off the remaining $3.6 billion of debt it owes to the $45 billion UAW Retiree Medical Benefit Trust, said Robert Shanks, vice president and controller, on Ford's analyst call on Oct. 26.
Shanks said the move to pay off Ford's debt to the VEBA retiree health care trust "will lower (Ford's) ongoing annual interest expense by about $330 million."
Eric Henry, chief investment officer of the UAW VEBA, did not return a call seeking information about how the cash infusion, which the trust will receive on Oct. 29, will be invested.
