Just the other day I was looking at the video of yours and it's great to read more about Fisherman's Wharf. The seals really were the icing on the cake, being so close and interacting even. Loved the entire ambiance of the place with the coloured houses and the vibe it gives is so pure.ReplyDelete
Yeah don't get too close to those seals though. They'll get you.Delete

Thanks. Sounds good.Delete
The buildings you photographed in Victoria are so colorful! The Fishermans Wharf area looks wonderful with plenty of activities. I'd love to try the fresh seafood in this area.ReplyDelete
We thought people would like to hear about it if they hadn't already.Delete
Adorable seals and what eye catching colors of the town's houses.ReplyDelete
It is obvious why tourists love to visit here.Delete

Numbers of note from the Heat's loss to extend the series:
6: Straight Heat points for LeBron James before Dwyane Wade took, and missed, the final shot. It was a pick-and-roll with Wade and Chris Bosh. If Wade doesn't stumble, perhaps he scores. But there will always be questions when the league's most gifted player is a spectator.
55: Fouls. Just awful officiating. Let them play.
15-of-29: Carmelo Anthony's line, in scoring 41 points. Give the man credit. He was scorched in the press. He responded. Should James have been guarding him more? One can make that case.
20 and 10: A solid effort for Amare Stoudemire, under the circumstances. Bosh wasn't bad either, though most of his damage came at the line.
4-of-11: Speaking of the line, Wade had one of those nights where he doesn't get any arc.
3: Field goals from the bench. Mike Miller is hurting — from an assortment of injuries, including that hernia surgery way back when — and he's really the only guy who can offer much scoring.
19-2: The run for New York in the third quarter, even while dealing with the letdown from the gruesome Baron Davis injury.
24: Knicks points off Heat turnovers. Too many. Too sloppy.
2: Days for the media to obsess over whether Jeremy Lin will play.

"Without music, life would be a mistake."

Hundreds of millions of daily visit cinemas, buy new DVD or revising old, talking about the movie, arguing about a movie, think about movies, shoot and in films. Cinema - the universal language of our time, capacious, and, at the same time, deep. Movie quickly proved its ability not only to entertain humans, but also to teach him to push the boundaries of his knowledge, change his beliefs and even his whole life. Each of us at least once in their life imitated memorable movie heroes. Tom Patrick McMurphy (Jack Nicholson) "infected" the spirit of freedom and love of life of patients psychiatric hospital, Clint Eastwood, squinting, lit and drawled, cast a poncho or George Clooney, smiling, as if accidentally spilled around him of charm ...
And of course, every one of us sometimes wonder what movie and what the language of cinema. About the magic power of transformation, which looks puny and inconspicuous person on the screen makes a true hero, a view which makes us physically feel his inner strength, a nondescript, in general, an actress, a view which the screen makes the fight more often hearts and much more. And at times, especially after the movie has affected us, we'd like to discuss with friends, family and just familiar - what did this movie have so affected?
The answer to these questions is much easier, presenting himself on the other side of the screen. And now, a little magic, and you - the director. Assistant runs with fresh coffee, producer, without taking on the mobile ear, shouting something to you about the approved budget, and the actors are waiting for the command "Action!". At your disposal - millions of different ideas, all the latest achievements of computer graphics, the whole world literature and simply your life experience. What do you tell the world? What is the hidden idea or dream you want to transfer to the screen? Think about it, because each frame in your movie has to mean something, to be associated with other, forcing the audience to everything intently, and gazed at the screen, perhaps recognizing themselves there. So every good director and a good film - it's a little inspiration, a little miracle, a little bit of skill, a little luck and the idea that the writer, director, actors and all those people who worked on the film, wanted to convey to us.
Will it have? If the movie is "stayed" inside and leaving a certain aftertaste, repeatedly pops up, reminding me of themselves, then turned. This is the magic power of art.
And we're in the studio very much like a good movie, regularly get together to look interesting and "strong" film. But the fun begins after watching, when different people with different backgrounds, different views, different views on life suddenly find that the film touched them similar chord soul, forced to think about similar things. And when in a circle discussing possible to "catch" the idea of the film, she seemed ignites in the hearts of people who streamed out. Of course, if you know how to watch a movie, and then you look at life quite differently. Of course, if you have learned to decipher the language of Images and symbols, which are able to skillfully juggle master of cinema, the ordinary life becomes easier and at the same time, deeper and richer. But the main thing is that you are different and start looking at yourself and people around you, and your boundaries are expanding universe :).
And discussion of the film - is not just an intellectual "task" and the desire to share intimate experience and an attempt to look together with the director from whence come the dreams and ideas, where archetypes live and where it comes from inspiration, from whence comes the movie. And as no one else in this help us to those who are with us two hours to pass a few minutes and at the same time as the whole life, I looked at "24 frames per second" and saw it as his own reflection ...
And not in vain in the various spiritual traditions from time to time organize collective screenings. Movies can also be a meditation for you, a string of frames will be stacked neatly in your mind and clear emotions and feelings that are going through the characters of the film will resonate with your own, and your body will clearly respond to this or that scene. And the stronger the scene, the more you will feel the energy of a certain quality, which, spilling off the screen, an invisible but very tangible wave spreads in the hall where people watch movies.
... And perhaps the day will come when you pick up a movie camera and look at the world through her lens. And you might want to become a creator itself a small miracle when your camera lens look in Life itself ...

In 1725 Johann Heinrich Schulze (1687-1744), physicist, Professor University of Gali in Germany found that under the influence of light solutions of iron salts change color. Schulze trying to prepare a luminous substance accidentally confused chalk with nitric acid, which contained little dissolved silver. Schulze pointed out that when the sunlight falling on the white mixture, then it became dark, while the mixture is protected from the sun, it is not changed. He then spent a few experiments with letters and figures, which are carved out of the paper and put on the bottle with the prepared solution - obtained photographic prints on silvered chalk. Professor Schulze published the findings in 1727, but he did not have to try to do and thoughts found in this way the image permanent. He was agitated solution in a bottle, and the image disappeared. This experiment, however, has given impetus to a series of observations, discoveries and inventions in chemistry, which after a little more than a century led to the invention of photography.
The first enshrined the image was made in 1822 by Frenchman Joseph Nicephore Niepce, which has not survived to the present day. Therefore, the first in the history of photography is considered a snapshot "views", produced by Joseph Nicephore Niepce later, in 1826, with a pinhole camera on a pewter plate coated with a thin layer of asphalt. The exposition lasted eight hours under bright sunlight. Niepce advantage of the method was that the image was obtained relief (after etching asphalt), and it can be easily duplicated in any number of copies.
In 1839, Frenchman Louis Jacques Mande Daguerre published a method for producing an image on a copper plate coated with silver. The plate was treated with iodine vapor, whereby the photosensitive layer was coated with silver iodide. After a thirty minute exposure Daguerre moved the plate in a dark room, and for some time held it over the heated mercury vapors. The use table salt as a fixative image Daguerre. The picture turned out pretty high quality - well-designed details in the highlights and in the shadows, however, shot up was impossible. His method of producing a photographic image Daguerre called "daguerreotypes."
Almost at the same time, the Englishman Henry Fox Talbot invented a method for producing a negative photographic image, which is called "calotypy". As the image carrier Talbot used paper soaked in silver chloride. This technology combines the high quality and the ability to copy Images (positives printed on similar paper). Exposure lasted about an hour.
In addition, in 1833 a method of obtaining photos using silver nitrate published a Franco-Brazilian inventor and painter Hercule Florence. His method, he is not patented and will not claim to superiority.
The term "photo" appeared in 1839, it was used simultaneously and independently by two astronomers - English, John Herschel, and the German, Johann von Medler.
Digital photography - a relatively young but popular technology, which originated in 1981, when Sony has released Sony on the Mavica camera market with the CCD, recording Images to disk. This unit was not digital in the modern sense (the analog signal recorded on the disc), but eliminates the photographic film. The first full-fledged digital camera - the DCS 100 - was released in 1990 by Kodak.
Today, man is hard to imagine life without photography. For most people, the photographs are valuable documents, evidence of their personal stories of a lifetime. The photo. Photo art. Photography is not just a picture in which someone well or not looks, and a specific moment, "bunch" of reality, the material embodiment of his condition, feelings, desires, emotions, feelings, a piece of inner peace.
"There are no bad pictures; that's just how your face looks sometimes"

West Africa was counting the cost of measures to contain the deadly Ebola epidemic Sunday, as unprecedented restrictions caused snarled transport, food shortages and soaring prices.Under the country's "Operation Octopus," some 1,500 soldiers and police have been deployed to enforce the quarantines, turning people away at checkpoints and accompanying health workers searching for people who may have contracted the virus.Tribal authorities are imposing huge fines for failure to report cases of Ebola, which has claimed nearly 1,000 lives in west Africa in the worst outbreak in four decades.Nigeria has reported 13 confirmed, probable or suspected cases of Ebola, whose incubation period ranges from two to 21 days.Meanwhile the Spanish government said a Spanish priest infected with Ebola will be treated with an experimental drug that has been used on two Americans.The Roman Catholic priest, Miguel Pajares, was one of three people who tested positive for Ebola at the St. Joseph Hospital in Monrovia where he worked.

How businesses can reduce their liability risk
With Winter just around the corner, most businesses are at additional risk of insurance claims due to ice, snow, and wet pavement. By keeping your property in good working condition, you can ensure that your employees and customers are safe, all while minimizing your liability risks. Mosaic Insurance, a leading insurance provider in Prescott, is here to tell you how you can keep your business safe this season.
Keeping walkways clear is important - Nothing screams liability like a walkway covered in ice. One slip and you could be paying thousands of dollars in settlements. Make sure that all surfaces are deiced and free of leaves and puddles. Make any steps or other hazards are cle
arly marked.
Check your roof and gutters - Make sure that your roof is leak free and that the gutters are clear to allow proper runoff. Make sure that the area where water runs off isn't anywhere where ice would reasonably be a problem.
Create a maintenance plan - Having an idea of what can be expected is a good business practice. Keep a list of things that need to be checked regularly, and things that need to be check when there is rain or snow.
Warnings and labels help prevent liability - Wet floors signs and other cautionary signs/markings can help reduce liability. Especially look out for the small things; we all know the story of the lady that sued McDonald's for spilling her drink.
Just because someone gets hurt on your property doesn't mean that it is your fault. In a court of law, there needs to be information that shows that any of these accidents were caused by negligence and property property/product care. By putting up signs, cleaning up ice, and clearly marking areas that need improvement, you can save yourself a lot of time and hassle, and potentially a lawsuit.
Now, let's say that even after being careful, you end up getting a lawsuit on your hands. If that happens to be the case it may be too late if you are not insured. We suggest you make sure that you're covered by purchasing either a professional liability insurance or commercial liability insurance. Both of these can pay for any bills that may be incurred over the course of the lawsuit, as well as protection from various other types of liability, such as commercial auto liability. It's always better to be safe than sorry, so commercial auto liability could be right for you.
That's where we come in. If you own a small business and are interested in professional liability insurance, or would like to know more about the benefits of professional liability insurance in Prescott, give Mosaic Insurance a call. We are experts in insurance and can help you pick a plan that is perfect for your needs as a professional. You can reach us at 928-458-7374

Prague, 1968: Memory #3
This is the third piece in a series that will, I hope, cover the entire year of 1968 through my own experiences. In it, I recount how I finally made it to the Czech/German border, a couple of weeks before the arrival of the Russian troops who displaced the power of the Dubcek regime. I hope I am, finally, beginning to discover how to make at least a little personal sense of that most peculiar incident in that most peculiar year, and I hope I am doing it for others in these "memories." The first piece can be found here. The second here.
Most of the traffic on the road, German plates and all, was headed into Cheb and away from the border. So, I walked, as usual. And walked. Later, I learned it was just a little less than twelve kilometers along that road from Cheb to Germany. I don't think I walked far enough to dry off, but I don't remember the wet after reaching the road—so I could have.
At any rate, I did walk for at least an hour. I had no watch, but I know I covered a great deal of ground, moving along the side of the road as it eased its way from the lights around the town through fields and then into woods. They were dark woods… well, any unknown woods would be, at night. And they brought back the fears of the afternoon on the train, when I'd imagined I was disappearing towards the Soviet Union. Now, the trees were getting bigger as I shrank.
For some reason, I imagine that the landscape got a little hillier as it grew more forested. Could be. Certainly, I tried to keep as far from the tarmac as I could, away from the lights coming towards me and out of the path of any coming from behind—not that there were any. A child of the times, I imagined the border through the movies I'd seen, not through my own experience, thinking of places like Checkpoint Charlie in Berlin, then only a few years old anyhow, and of barbed wire and desperate attempts to escape. I brought images to my head of people mown down a few steps from freedom. Now, I couldn't help repeating to myself, it was I on the wrong side of the fence.
Over-dramatic? Certainly. But try to walk at night towards the border in an unknown land overshadowed by another hostile to your own. There's no stopping the images, though I don't think I was quite afraid, simply extremely worried. At sixteen, fear is tempered by ignorance and inexperience. I could move forward under the protection of both.
At one point, though, I did experience fear, extreme fear. Loud noises came suddenly from off to the right and slightly ahead. Out from the woods sprang a dog as big as a lion pulling a giant carrying a rifle the size of a log. The soldier yelled at me; I froze. Everyone shrank as they neared, and the dog sniffed at me cautiously. I stayed still.
The soldier demanded something, I didn't know what, but he quickly made clear through gestures that he wanted my papers. I handed over my passport, hand shaking. He glanced through it. Slowly, I reached for the last two of those Russian cigarettes and offered him one. He took it. After a false start (my hands would not hold still), I struck a match successfully and lighted both.
A sound from behind us had us both turning, a loud engine nearing from around the last turn. We watched as a tractor, of all things, neared. The soldier signaled it to stop, spoke with the driver, and motioned for me to climb up behind him. I did. The diesel chugged faster, and we were off.
The driver pulled to a stop at a barrier that could have served for a set for any number of the adventure and war movies so popular then. A phonebooth with an armed man in it under a streetlight and a barrier across the road—a car should have come crashing through, careening down the road towards escape. Instead, all there was was this tractor dropping me off and then circling back the way it had come. I waved. I hadn't realized the driver had gone out of his way for me.
Ahead, perhaps one hundred meters up a slow incline, were lights and cars, lots of activity. For the first time since I'd been told I had to be out of the country by midnight, I thought it might actually happen, for that had to be the border itself.
The uniformed man in the booth gave me an odd look once he'd recognized my passport as American—or so I imagined. At any rate, immediately after looking at it, he picked up his phone and started speaking. The speaking turned to arguing, then yelling. Finally, he seemed to win, uttering a final word into the instrument then slamming it into its receiver. He turned to me, motioned me around the barrier, and pointed up towards the border. I started walking.
This border station, on the Czech side, seemed like nothing so much as a hyper-active gas station. Though there were few cars—none that I could see, at least—heading towards Germany, they were backed up the other direction. People, I assumed, making a vacation in the country so newly accessible to the West. I walked to the first uniformed person I saw and handed over my passport. He took it and started to walk away. "Wait," I called. He stopped and turned partially towards me. Apparently he spoke a few words of English. "Where can I change money?" He shrugged and called over his shoulder as he walked away, "Keep. Souvenir."
After that, no one would talk to me. I sat down on a bench outside the main office where people were milling about, going in and out with papers, directions—I don't know.
After an hour or so, I got up and approached someone in uniform, afraid I'd been forgotten. "When will I get my passport back? When can I leave?"
"Wait." He dismissed me. I returned to my seat.
Though I had no watch, I was sure it was now after midnight, but that didn't bother me: I'd made it to the border. Cars were progressing through, no problem. Even one or two leaving the country. No problem. But for me, it was 'wait.' I waited.
Eventually, I got up to stretch my legs, wandering to the other side of the office then back. It was getting chilly, so I stepped inside where it was warmer.
A young man in there was trying, in German as bad as mine, to exchange money with a couple clearly headed into the country. They were looking at him, a little perplexed. Having recognized right away that he had to be another American, I said, "Keep it. They'll let you take it out. They told me to."
The instant I spoke, all activity stopped.
No one continued stamping documents. No car trunk, open for inspection was closed. No door, half open, shut. Every official had turned into a statue—except for one thing: All of their eyes were now focused on the two of us.
He looked at me. The German couple slunk away. "Two Americans, here? They must not like that." He hardly whispered. "Come. Let's sit down." He led me back outside and to a bench exactly like the one I'd been sitting on before. Slowly, the guards started working again. Their eyes, however, never left us for long.
"I saw you before," he said, "but didn't realize you are an American."
"Why are they watching us?"
"I don't know. I've been here since six o'clock, and they ignored me completely after taking my passport."
"They've been ignoring me, too."
"Until now." He grimaced. "I wish they'd just let us go!"
"How did you get here? Do you have a car?" I knew he didn't for, like me, he had a backpack. But I asked anyway. How else could he have gotten here?
"I walked for Cheb."
"You what?"
"You heard me, I walked. I didn't realize how far it was, but it didn't take more than a couple of hours."
"Thing is, well, so did I. Well, part way. Got a ride, finally, on a tractor."
He grabbed my arm, suddenly excited. At that, all activity once more ceased. He looked around, let go, and leaned back into the bench until things got going again.
"You know what I think?"
"Look, two young Americans, about military age, walk up to a border station, no town with ten klicks… and this is an area where the Russians claim to have found caches of American arms."
"Shit." A little preposterous, I though, but scary. "I hope you're wrong!"
"I'm not, I tell you! I'll bet they're searching the whole area, the Czechs are, making sure they find anything before the Russians do!"
"Oh, come on. I doubt that."
"Then why are they keeping us here? Why not simply let us go?"
I shook my head, unable to answer.
Next, I promise to get myself into Germany (and Nixon nominated as the Republican presidential candidate along the way to Nuremburg).

Some of the problems of cyanoacrylate adhesives, including low mechanical properties and solubility in water, were resolved by using POSS nanostructures. POSS nanostructures improved the properties as networking and strengthening agents.
Dental adhesives are compounds that are placed on the tooth structure before the application of composite during the treatment process. Since the surface of the tooth is wet and cyanoacrylate adhesives make good connection with wet surfaces, it is expected that their application as dental adhesives will open a new path in the production of materials with better properties.
Cyanoacrylate adhesives were used as tusk dental adhesives in this research, and their problems, including low mechanical properties and solubility in water, were resolved by using POSS nanostructures. An adhesive with the ability to be polymerized under light reflection was produced as well.
According to Parastoo Fadayee, a researcher from Tehran Science and Research Branch of Islamic Azad University, the goal of the research was to investigate the properties of cyanoacrylate adhesives containing acrylo-POSS (APOSS) nanostructures as tusk adhesives.
Results of the research carried out by Parastoo Fadayee et al have been published in details in June 2013 in Dental Materials, vol. 29, issue 6, pp. e61-e69.

Over the years people have asked me why I coach. A good deal of my answers revolve around the fun I have watching young people excel at something that they are passionate about.
It could be the first time they pick up a ground ball, score their first goal, make a nice check or a great save. Sometimes it is the thrill of being in a close game and trying to make all the correct decisions to give your team the chance to succeed.
It could be achieving a team goal or a championship. I have coached at every level (except pro) and I have seen wonderful things on and off the field.
This past weekend in the town of Farmville, Virginia, Legendary Hampden Sydney Head Coach Ray Rostan bid farewell to his last senior class. The importance of this day did not go unnoticed by people that are involved in our great game.
This marks the 37th year that coach Rostan has patrolled the sidelines, 31 years for the Hampden Sydney Tigers. Coach Ray has amassed over 300 wins in his career and he decided this year he would retire. By way of the Facebook posts I have seen the last few days there looked like hundreds of former players attended Coach Ray's last home game before competing in the ODAC, NCAA qualifying tournament. They defeated a very good and nationally ranked Lynchburg team (last years NCAA runner-ups) 13-9.
I first met Coach Ray at the US Lacrosse Convention some ten years ago. As one of the convention committee chairs I was responsible for getting coaches to speak at the national event. I had spoken with coach several times over the phone and we hit it off right away. Could it be that he was from Copiague, Long Island and I was from West Babylon (bitter rivals) or that he coached several of my players (Bobby Fulton, David Beman, Brad Mostowy) and guys I coached with (John Pritzlaff & Ryan Harrington).
I asked Coach what he wanted to talk about and he said how about shooting. Now mind you we had several professional players that were going to talk about shooting so I was a little hesitant to have another shooting presentation. But I said sure that's fine coach. Coach Ray brought his long time assistant Jay (who happens to be his son) and they put on a shooting display that people still talk about today. Coach Ray was happy to rip corners and put balls where ever he wanted. Not only was he a great speaker but he was able to demonstrate the art of shooting a lacrosse ball in layman's terms and everyone that was in attendance were very impressed.
Coach Ray is just a genuine all and all good guy. He always takes your call he answers emails (sometimes not timely) and is always there if you need him for any reason. Not only did he impact many players during his career but he impacted many Moms and Dads and siblings.
So to answer my question Why do I coach? It's because of guys like Ray Rostan who don't do it for fanfare, prestige, money or fame. They do it because they want to make a positive impact on young people's lives. Coach Ray is a DIAMOND in the rough and we will all miss him a great deal.
From one Coach to another…THANK YOU COACH RAY you have blessed all of us.

As compared to the usual loose powder that matches our skin tone, this light lavender colour contains light-reflective pearlescence that instantly brightens my dull, sallow skin after a long day at work. The powder is very fine and it gives me a nice glow without looking too dry or cakey. Not to mention the pretty vintage casing that makes it look so pretty sitting in my makeup pouch, hees.
Anna Sui Eye Shadow Case + Anna Sui Glitter Eyeshadow
Yes, I succumb to this as well. I choose this golden glittery shade because it is great for touch up after work as well. You can use it on its own or layer it on top of other eyeshadows as its base color is not very pigmented. Not an issue for me as I like to apply it on its own with a little swatch (which picks up heaps of glitter) to brighten my eyes before lining it with my usual eyeliner. Simple and fuss-free!

How to be a better Small Business Owner
Have you had a situation where you meet somebody after a really long time and that person remembers you by your name? You must have felt really special, right? Whenever I get a call from anyone inquiring about a product we have in store, I ask their name and save it along with a word that would remind me of their inquiry. For example, let's say a Ms Zara calls me asking about die-cuts. I would save her number in my contacts as Zara Die Cuts. This way, if and when she calls me again, I would answer her call saying, 'Hi Zara, how are you?' or something similar. It is a very tiny detail but I have noticed that customers like it when I remember their name or our previous conversations.
As an online store owner, I don't get to meet my customers as often as I would like, so I try to offer personalized services in whatever way I can. Remember, just as we have invested our time and energy in our business, our customers are investing their valuable time and money in our products and/or services. Without them, our business won't thrive. Of course, we are all humans and we make mistakes. An apology goes a long way in such cases.

No Thought For Women May 1987
All currently prevailing international academic fads make their way in time to the corridors of power and planning in Kathmandu. National policies are quick to accommodate prevailing concepts, theories and Approaches to development. Since the 1950s, our deve-lopment goals have consecutively em-phasised agriculture, then industry, then "balanced growth", then "regional development". Subsequently, "growth oriented" development gave way to "equity oriented" development and fin-ally to "integrated rural". Such progression, if one might call it that, seem as inevitable as the turning of the wheel of fortune.
Recently, the focus has shifted from growth and GNP orientation to a concern for people and equity. The emphasis, on paper -at least, is to be of direct assistance to those on the lowest economic strata the rural poor, the small farmer, the deprived. Women fall in the lowest economic strata under any type of classification. The thought that development activities .directed to the rural people will automatically include women has been borne out to be untrue. The beneficiaries of social, political, government and development activities have in fact overwhelmingly been "the male rural poor". The "trickle down effect", in this case from men to women, has worked no better at the household level than it seems to have at the national level.
Unthinking use of Western categories of "housewives" and "money earners" without looking at the Nepali rural household has ignored and distorted the actual productive roles of women. Nepali women have thus been more or less by-passed in development. The functional roles of "housewives" and "money earners" apply only to an exclusive minority of the elite, but it is the members of this small elite who are the immediate receivers or disbursers of foreign aid and development. And they are what they are either by virtue of western education and influence, or, in a few cases, the anachronistic left-overs of the elites of previous times.
The concept of "housewife" in Nepal assumes the woman as a leisurely lady limiting her activities to household and domestic chores, categorised either as reproductive or unproductive. This excludes all those activities of the vast majority of Nepali women who do crucial, productive, but unpaid activities such as food processing, manufacturing for family consumption, household construction, water and fuel collection, hunting and gathering.
Foreign funds
Thus, the crucial contribution of women in the family farm enterprise and their productive inputs to the rural household system have been overlooked. With women restricted to the farm household, project aid directed to the rural poor has reached only the men, because it is they who represent the farm family and society in "outside" negotiations and activities with the Kathmandu bureaucracy and foreign donors.
With the United Nations' declaration of 1975 as the International Year of Women, foreign funds for local seminars and conferences began to flow and various women leaders journeyed far and wide to international gatherings on women and development. Subsequently, money also became available for women's programmes. Unfortunately, most such programmes continue to be in skill development (sewing, knitting and handicraft), nutrition, family planning, maternity and childcare. These activities simply extend the domestic role of women. Income generation for women has been limited to providing credits for chicken and goats and vegetable gardening.
Ail the seven integrated rural development projects (IRDPs) in Nepal have major agricultural components, but none are geared to women specifically. They may target "farmers", but that will never include the female farmer. There even seem to be instances of deliberate exclusion. The Koshi Hill Area IRDP has scheme for giving intensive four-year agricultural training to Grade 7 dropouts. Girls are not eligible, it is precisely such formal training that women lack. Asked why girls were excluded from the training scheme, a (foreign) expert said, "Do you think a 60-year-old farmer (by implication, male) would listen to a young female JTA?" The expert, and he is not unique, seemed unaware of the existence of female farmers in Nepal.
A review of IRDP activities leads us to conclude that women have not really been considered seriously. The field is barren except for a surfeit of lip service and symbolic gestures in the form of minimal funds.
In the Community Forestry Project, women are involved only in 'nurseries and in education programmes. While they are preferred for nursery work such as weeding and planting, in spite of better performance, the female labourers are paid less than men. In Kathmandu, the official rate is NRs 14 for men, NRs 11 for women and NRs 9 for children. In 69 village panchayats we surveyed, there were only three women nursery foremen in that better paying job. In the afforestation programme, extension workers are all male.
Our analysis of ten women-specific projects showed that most of them had inadequate training, weak implemen-tation, no follow-up and no continuity. Most were directed towards "house-wifely" activities leading to income generation. There is nothing wrong with that per se, but the programmes seemed to be ad hoc and carried on with an air of lady-like amateurism. Only two of the ten seemed to view women as crucial contributors to the family farm enterprise. Within the total picture of development, however, the benefit by women from these women-specific project is minimal.
Almost all the projects that exist for women in Nepal are externally funded, implying a lack of seriousness and commitment in HMG to women's programmes. This exclusive dependence on external funding leads one to question what will happen when international funds dry up. It is time to correct the situation in which women have either been left out of major national development projects or relegated to peripheral activities. It is not acceptable that women are actually being displaced by men in their traditional roles in agriculture as a result of "development" activity. Women can only be reached by being specifically targetted, and they can only be reached in most cases by other women. This is the crux of the problem and has to be .squarely faced. Unfortunately, even now, while there is a growing awareness of women's right to development, most efforts seem to stop at the stage of verbalisation,

Embrey Partners' latest Austin area development starts leasing
With dramatic hilltops and 20-mile views, San Antonio-based Embrey Partners, with equity partner Nationwide Insurance, has opened its latest Austin project, the Estates at Bee Cave. Located at 3544 South Ranch Road 620 in southwest Austin, the Estates at Bee Cave are a 24-acre, 316-unit, luxury condominium community now available for lease in one of Austin's most desirable neighborhoods.
"We think Bee Cave is one of the most unique communities in which Embrey has ever built," says Jeff Booth, Embrey's executive vice president of development and the partner responsible for the Estates project. "We are excited to build something beautiful and creative that not only contributes to the uniqueness of the City, but exceeds expectations in its own right."
According to the original development agreement for the property that dated back to 1999, rights for the 35 acres would have included a much more commercial, dense development, carrying tremendous traffic and environmental impacts. Working closely with Embrey and Ash Creek Homes, the City was able to negotiate an amended development agreement with significant density reduction, potential traffic impacts reduced by 50 percent, and a softer residential development with large natural areas more compatible with the adjacent neighborhoods.
"The topography of the land is particularly spectacular, and we've taken great care in crafting the community to make the best use of what nature has already created," adds Booth. Designed by Austin architectural firm Kelly Grossman, the project – with its abundant open space and tree safe areas – is home to three tiers of residential buildings that climb to the top of the property where residents can take in stunning, 360-degree views.
Located just a mile from both the Hill Country Galleria retail development and one of the best school districts in the Austin area, the one-, two- and three-bedroom condominiums feature executive class interiors with custom cabinetry and granite countertops in all kitchens and baths. Community features have been designed to take full advantage of the landscape, including a resort-style clubhouse and pool area that wrap around a beautiful wooded ravine. Units range in size from 683 to 1,428 square feet with an average monthly rate approaching $1,400. The largest three-bedroom, two-bath homes with a two car direct-access garage, washer and dryer and hill top views will command as much as $2,300 monthly.

With their innovative design and quality craftsmanship, Embrey properties often command the highest values in the markets in which they are built. "Five of the last eight properties we've built achieved the highest value ever attained for this type of development in their respective cities," says Booth.
As an example, Booth cites his last San Antonio development where the average income of the residents topped $200,000 annually — almost double that of the local demographic.
Environmental Controls
With care to preserve the existing natural features, including a creek crossing and wooded native hill country, the Estates also incorporates water quality elements and run–off re-irrigation techniques as a way of preventing impurities from flowing back into the natural drainage features of the area. The development also utilizes a grey water landscape irrigation system that does not impact the precious water resources of the area and will provide irrigation to the landscaping regardless of drought conditions.
The property is professionally managed by Embrey Management Services. For more information, visit www.EstatesAtBeeCave.com.

That's particularly startling in light of the fact that God visited the Dreaded Scourge of the Unknown Tongue on me, about 20 years ago. And I still don't mind.
The reason I don't mind is that I know what I believe. Sadly, that cannot be truthfully said of most SBC church members. After approaching six years of asking, I still have yet to encounter someone who knows why one must be baptized to join a Baptist church. And to reiterate what I've said before, I've asked members, deacons (assembled in a meeting), Sunday School teachers (ditto), and even, at one point, a seminary professor.
Nobody has yet known.
The charge is made that Calvinists aren't mission-minded. To those making that charge, I point out that the last Presbyterian Church of which we were members, from the day it was formed, designated that 1/3 of its budget would be spent on missions. And that was decided when the church was organized, even before the missions recipients had been decided.
I haven't found any SBC churches like that.
It's also been said that Calvinists aren't evangelical. To those folks I tell that we moved to Birmingham in 1975, and since that time I've been asked the "Key Question" ... if you were to die tonight, do you know where you'd spend eternity?" many, many times. But never once was it asked by an SBC church member. It was always by a Presbyterian. If that's not being evangelical, then Baptists are even less so.
The arguers against the 5 points of T.U.L.I.P. focus on man and his ability, and sometimes on God's love. But rarely on man's frailty and sinfulness, or God's justice and sovereignty. And His infinite nature that defies our finite attempts to truly comprehend the infinite.
A couple of things strike me as odd, about the controversies. One is that some churches have called pastors who were "secretly Calvinist" and then suffered when the new pastor tried to "convert" the church. I certainly wouldn't defend a pastor doing that, but I have to ask the quality of the Pastor Search Committee who cannot discern something like that, long before the call.
Another thing is that I never hear Calvinists excoriating Baptists who take the conventional Baptist view of soteriology, but I certainly see Baptists saying untoward things about Calvinism and Calvinists.
That screams at me.
It also seems to be Baptists who raise the issue as an issue. I never see Calvinists saying the SBC isn't reformed enough.
I'm all for the SBC and the Baptist Faith & Message. Particularly the 1963 version. I've taught it numerous times, and will continue to do so if anyone's interested (there's been little interest in some years now).
The BF&M and the Westminster Confession both base their tenets on scripture, and cite the verses for their stance on every point. It reminds me of the old quotation "A man's position on most issues depends largely on which set of proven facts he chooses to ignore".
You could apply the same thought to one's position as to soteriology, but I don't choose to ignore any scripture.
If you want to explain stuff like the following, you're going to have to explain away something:
Romans 9:18: So then, He shows mercy to those He wants to, and He hardens those He wants to harden.
1 John 2:2: He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not only for ours, but also for those of the whole world.
I cannot see how those mesh, but I believe it was Charles Spurgeon who said it was only the sinful mind of man who tried to make God's sovereign election and man's freedom to choose into two separate doctrines. News flash: I agree with Spurgeon.
If the doctrines emphasized by John Calvin weren't scripture, they'd have died out long ago. If they are, then they won't.
Good enough for me.

Cumberland County's financial dependence on guarding men and women behind prison bars continues to grow after more than four decades.
The latest venture involves housing prisoners from Gloucester County at the Cumberland County jail in Bridgeton, a program that should reap Cumberland County millions of dollars to help balance its budgets.
Those prisoners - the county will accept between 100 and 350, depending on space - will join thousands of inmates lodged in three state prisons located in Cumberland County. Bayside State Prison and Southern State Correctional Facility in Maurice River Township and South Woods State Prison in Bridgeton house about a third of the more than 23,100 inmates in all of the state's prisons.
Those three prisons also represent something else to Cumberland County - they make up perhaps the largest and most stable employer in a county with one of the worst economies in New Jersey.
The state Department of Corrections employs 1,591 Cumberland County residents. That represents about 19 percent of the department's entire work force. Of those employees, 1,534 work at Bayside, South Woods and Southern State.
The Cumberland County Department of Planning and Economic Development lists Inspira Health Network as the county's largest private-sector employer, with more than 2,800 workers. That figure includes Inspira's entire work force from several counties. Cumberland County's next largest private-sector employer is Durand Glass Manufacturing Co. in Millville, which has 970 workers.
U.S. Census Bureau data lists the median household income for Cumberland County from 2007 to 2011 as $52,004. The average state corrections department worker earned $69,394 in fiscal year 2012, with the figure standing at $72,915 for a senior corrections officer.
The federal Bureau of Prisons also operates a correctional facility in Fairfield Township. The number of inmates and prisoners at the facility was not available.
Cumberland County Freeholder Chairman William Whelan contends the county's 70,000-person labor pool - of which the state reports almost 13 percent was unemployed as of last month - would be in even worse shape without the state prison jobs.
"Without those prisons, unemployment is another two points higher," he said.
The deal to accept prisoners from Gloucester County's jail, which is scheduled to be shuttered this month, is something that Cumberland County officials say is necessary to help them close budget gaps.
Under the deal, Gloucester County will pay $100 per day for each prisoner lodged in Cumberland County's jail. Cumberland County officials say they expect to realize at least $3 million from the agreement annually. The county will get about $1.7 from the agreement this year.
The first 73 prisoners arrived at the Bridgeton facility on June 22 and 23. County officials said the number was expected to increase to about 120 by the end of last month.
Cumberland County Administrator Kenneth Mecouch said it is probable that the county will wind up realizing more than $3 million annually as the program progresses.
The agreement between Cumberland and Gloucester counties was not without controversy.
The Cumberland County Board of Chosen Freeholders approved the agreement in concept in March. Some county residents told the freeholders at that time the deal would result in more criminals staying in the county upon their release. They alleged that is happening with inmates released from the three state prisons.
"We do not want them," Vineland resident Steve Lewis told the board. "We do not need them."
While allegations that state prison inmates remain in Cumberland County after their release have been debated for decades, there is no hard evidence to show that it happens.
Corrections Department spokeswoman Dierdre Fedkenheuer said the department does not track where state prisoners go following their release. Department officials say they offer prisoners the opportunity to buy an NJ Transit bus or rail ticket to "aid in their transition into the community."
The New Jersey State Parole Board also does not track where ex-offenders go upon their release from a state correctional facility. Anecdotal information indicates that most state prisoners return their home counties upon release, they said.
Officials with the Cumberland County Board of Social Services did not respond to requests from The Press of Atlantic City for comment about the issue.
Bridgeton Police Chief Mark Ott said there are only "a couple of instances that stick in my mind" involving criminal problems related to people released from the state prisons in the county.
"That prison has been there a long time," he said of South Woods, which opened in 1997.
Still, Ott believes that the state should formally study where state inmates go upon their release. That might finally put the issue to rest, he said.
Whelan said objection to or support of all the prisons in Cumberland County is something with which officials and residents must live.
"Whether you like the fact that there is a prison in your backyard, the decisions were made years ago," he said.

State prisons in Cumberland
The state Department of Corrections operations three prisons in Cumberland County.
Bayside State Prison is located on more than 1,100 acres in the Leesburg section of Maurice River Township. The facility opened in 1970 and houses more than 2,100 prisoners in three operational units. The facility has 661 employees, including 404 from Cumberland County.
Southern State Correctional Facility occupies 77 acres in the Delmont section of Maurice River Township. The facility opened in 1983 and houses more than 2,000 prisoners in prefabricated, dormitory-style units. The facility has 646 employees, including 396 Cumberland County residents.
South Woods State Prison occupies 85 acres in Bridgeton and is the state's newest prison. The facility opened in 1997 and houses more than 3,400 prisoners, more than any other state prison. The prison has three medium-custody housing facilities and a minimum-custody housing unit. The facility has 998 employees, including 734 from Cumberland County.

You want to be comfortable on the weekend, but you still want to look stylish. Instead of wearing button ups and clothing that just doesn't make you feel relaxed when not at work, you can take some style tips from Adam Gallagher or @IamGalla as he is also known.
Apparently, his favorite season is fall, when the weather is just changing, and he can easily throw on something that can make for lounging around the house as well as going out on the town.
Replicating Adam's "Favorite Season" Outfit
His outfits are the epitome of comfort, and in order to replicate them, you need some really basic pieces. Let's put it together so you can copy it and be as relaxed and cool as Adam. So head on over to Target with your list here, because this outfit doesn't need to be expensive.
Start out with a simple white T-shirt of your favorite brand. This doesn't' have to be tight, in fact, Adam wears a nice loose one. Pair that with a Goodfellow & Co. sweater from Target. Preferably you can get the Men's Shawl Cable Cardigan from the look.
Also from the Goodfellow & Co. brand at Target, you can find their Chino Pants that are extremely comfortable. This brand is quite versatile. The pants fit athletic to tall and bigger body types.
Adam doesn't show us his footwear, but you can easily pair it with stylish, comfortable sneakers or boots to complete the look.
All in all though with this outfit you are guaranteed to look good and feel good.

Target Issues That May Be Impairing Your Facebook Marketing
News 10:12 December 2019:
All our services are working fast and instantly. Feel free to try us out , we even have a the free trial.
Although purchasing Instagram automatic likes can gunner you a significant number of likes, followers and drive more traffic to your website. However, the reason why you are not getting the success levels you were anticipating for may be because you are doing something wrong. Here are some of the main targeting issues that may be affecting your social marketing effort.
Using Invalid Audience
If you are running a social media advertisement campaign, you first have to understand your objective. For instance, if you are looking for likes, you should not target people who have already liked your page. This is because the audience will se the post but not be able to like, if they have already liked the page. As such, your post has to address the appropriate audience.
Running the Ads at the Wrong Time
In addition to understanding your audience, you have to understand when they are more likely to access the social media platform you are using. For instance, if your target audience access the social media platform at around 6 pm, this is the time you should post.
Once you know your correct audience and when they are active, you should then purchase auto likes to compel the audience to have a look at the advertisement competent.

NFL Week 7 Kicks Off With Bears vs. Packers
Submitted by Jim Hurley on Tuesday, October 18, 2016 at 3:25 PM
Gotta say the best part of the Monday Night Football broadcast was watching those terribly bored New York Jets' fans in the crowd at Arizona – the Cardinals' workmanlike 28-3 win/cover against the hapless J-E-T-S happened to be a major snore-fest filled with penalty flags but it was amusing to see the NYJ fans decked out in the team colors roll their eyes with every bad QB Ryan Fitzpatrick pass. Ugh!
Just to think that Fitzpatrick (174 yards passing, one INT and 4 fantasy points!) held the Jets hostage this past off-season with his contract demands and the AFC East team should have let 'em walk. Gee, that means more QB Geno Smith come Sunday versus Baltimore, whatta great way for the 1-5 season to continue!
Hey, there's better stuff straight ahead and here's how the NFL Week 7 menu gets started…
On Thursday Night, it's…
CHICAGO (1-5) at GREEN BAY (3-2) – 8:25 p.m. ET, CBS/NFL Network
C'mon, we don't need any "promos" hyping this one as the "NFL's oldest rivalry" – we're gonna tune in no matter what to see if Green Bay Packers' QB Aaron Rodgers may indeed be "shot"!
Rodgers has endured back-to-back brutal games – a 23-16 win/push against the New York Giants followed last Sunday by that 30-16 non-competitive loss to Dallas – please let us not hear anything this week about Rodgers telling the die-hard Packers' fans to "R-E-L-A-X"!
Green Bay committed four big turnovers in last Sunday's loss to the Cowboys including a lost fumble by the TV pitchman inside the Dallas five-yard line and you could even see the disgust of the Packers' O-linemen when they realized Rodgers has lost the ball.
Gotta see a "clean game" here from Rodgers against the 8½ point underdog Bears who haven't capitalized on four consecutive 300-yard passing games by journeyman QB Brian Hoyer – betcha he's caused a stir in your little fantasy leagues, eh?
Spread Notes – Green Bay is 22-11 ATS (against the spread) in NFC North games dating back to the start of the 2011 season while Chicago is an ugly 2-9 versus the vig since late last season.
Get Jim's Best Bet Hotline Picks at and his exclusive Blue Ribbon Picks right here online at www.VegasSportsMasters.com or via our toll-free telephone # of 1-888-777-4155 after 1p.m. ET on week days and any time after 10a.m. ET on Saturday and Sunday and remember to get all the NCAA Football, NFL Week 7 and Major-League Baseball Divisional Playoff Winners all weekend long! And remember to get all the Major-League Baseball Playoff winners too all week/month long!
Dang, it's already Week 8 in this here-and-now College Football Season and this weekend's card features three head-to-head Top 25 matchups – we'll getcha quick-hitter previews on #23 Ole Miss at #25 LSU along with #17 Arkansas at #21 Auburn but we'll save #6 Texas A&M at #1 Alabama for later in the week here at Jim Sez …okay?
On Saturday, it's …
#17 ARKANSAS (5-2, 1-2 SEC) at #21 AUBURN (4-2, 2-1 SEC) – 6 p.m. ET, ESPN
Everyone's trying to chase down Bama in the hotly-contested SEC West but it's sure becoming a round-robin knockout division, if you ask us. Here, 10-point home favorite Auburn brings its vastly-improved defense (allowed just 34 total points in recent back-to-back wins/covers against LSU, UL-Monroe and Miss State) and the major job here is to flush Hogs QB Austin Allen (1,861 yards passing with 18 TDs) out of the pocket and into harm's way. Major key for War Eagle is to grunt-and-groan its way to a major time of possession advantage with the country's 12th best ground attack (averaging 262.8 ypg) and dual stars RB Kerryon Johnson (538 yards rushing) and Kamryn Pettway (505 yards rushing) are always threats to bust long runs.
Spread Notes – Arkansas has covered 12 of its last 19 SEC affairs dating back to the start of the 2014 season while Auburn's racked up a nifty 5-1 ATS mark this year including conference covers versus LSU and Miss State.
#23 OLE MISS (3-3, 1-2 SEC) at #25 LSU (4-2, 2-1 SEC) – 9 p.m. ET, ESPN
You tell us:
Is there a more talented .500 team in the land than these Ole Miss Rebels? Sure, the Oxford gang's blown leads against Florida State and Alabama, then last week shrunk in the late-game spotlight in that 34-30 loss at Arkansas – how is Ole Miss gonna respond here in Death Valley (yes, a night game!) is the proverbial $64,000 question.
LSU may have one eye peeled for that early November tilt against archrival Alabama but gotta believe interim head coach Ed Orgeron will be fretting it out till he knows for sure RB Leonard Fournette is a "go" here. The Bayou Bengals are a 5½ point (and growing) betting favorite for this clash and even if Fournette's not 100 percent there is always RB Derrius Guice (564 yards and a silly 9.1 ypc average) – maybe the best SEC back nobody talks about, eh?
Spread Notes – LSU has failed to cover four of its last five home games against Ole Miss; meanwhile, the Rebels are a collective 34-19-1 ATS under fifth-year boss Hugh Freeze.
We're back with another season of the Jim Sez Heisman Trophy Watch List where we offer up a weekly top five candidates for college football's most coveted individual award.
Here's how we see things shaping up while heading into this busy October weekend:
LAMAR JACKSON, QB, Louisville – Tops on our debut leaderboard with his 1,806 passing yards with 15 TDs and 4 INTs to go along with 832 rushing yards and 15 scores. What, you're gonna punish this do-it-all mega-star because the Cardinals didn't win that thriller at Clemson a few weeks back?
J.T. BARRETT, QB, Ohio State – Masterful job leading comeback OT win at Wisconsin last weekend has propelled this Buckeyes' star into the #2 hole for our first Heisman Watch List. Barrett's thrown for 1,207 yards with 16 TDs and 4 INTs plus he's rushed for 434 yards and 6 TDs.
JAKE BROWNING, QB, Washington – The Pac-12's best player comes off a bye but en route to the Huskies' sensational 6-and-oh start (and 4-2 versus the vig) he's thrown 23 TDs and just 2 INTs with 1,418 yards in all. P.S., he sported a 6-TD, 0-INT game in that 70-21 win against Oregon two weeks ago.
DESHAUN WATSON, QB, Clemson – Sorry, he's not as high in our Heisman rankings as others may claim due in large part to 8 INTs and just a modest total of 279 rushing yards. Still, a big game at Florida State in two weeks (Clemson has a bye this Saturday) could jet 'em back up our rankings.
GREG WARD, JR., QB, Houston – Yes, indeed, there's five quarterbacks on our debut Heisman Watch List as this Cougars' star exited last weekend's scary 38-31 non-cover triumph over 22½ point dog Tulsa with 1,938 yards passing and 11 TDs plus another 414 rushing yards with 6 scores.
NOTE: More NCAA Football Previews plus NFL Week 7 goodies in the next edition of Jim Sez, so don't miss out.

The old Tanqueray and some choice nibbles await me.
Would any readers be interested in my taking a photograph of the Tapas menu on the next occasion?
Dear readers, I might have to acquire a new mobile phone, should the Nokia flip-phone not re-appear. Which? Magazine recommends the Samsung Tocco Lite as a good, basic mobile.
I am not "in the market" for a so-called smartphone: A good pay-as-you-go mobile would be fine. And I do not wish to spend a fortune on it, either.
Any recommendations?
