To steal a phrase from the late Steve Jobs, the iPhone X is a 'screamer'. The synthetic benchmark tests that we originally ran bear this out.
So how does this manifest itself in real-world performance? Everything felt smooth, well - as smooth as iOS 11 allows.
When we put the iPhone X against our iPhone 7 plus in the day to day tasks, it turned out there is not much of a noticeable difference. Yes, the iPhone X boots faster but after that the devices are almost neck and neck. The iPhone X edges it when launching apps, launching the camera, multi-tasking, and gameplay but the difference between the two isn't as pronounced as the difference in benchmark scores would suggest.
It's behind the scenes where all that extra 'oomph' is utilized. Apple's new faster GPU is more efficient, matching the A10 Fusion GPU using only half the energy. Additionally, the A11 Bionic features a new Neural Engine employed by the Image Signal Processor (ISP) which means the iPhone X is the most capable phone yet when it comes to handling image and video capture and processing. Studio Lighting, which we'll come to shortly, can only be viewed in real-time on the iPhone X thanks to the A11. But this also holds true for the iPhone 8/8 Plus so you can see our point that performance is definitely where the iPhone X stands out. The other iPhones are equally good.
Speaking of, "Good enough" is probably how we'd all describe the battery life we've been getting out of these phones. On average it would get us through the day on a single charge just fine. Where we have seen excessive battery drain, it's been as a result of the occasional rogue app.
Granted, one of us has to charge several times a day at weekends when he's gaming, but that's expected.
What leaves a sour taste though is that we expected slightly more out of the iPhone X's 2,716mAh battery. Why? Because the iPhone 8 Plus gives us an gets excellent two-day battery life with the same innards and software and it has a marginally smaller battery at that (2,691mAh).
The reduced battery life of the iPhone X over the iPhone 8 Plus could be down to a multitude of reasons - it has more pixels to push around, what inefficiencies lay in the layered battery introduced in the iPhone X, or is it Face IDs constant scanning? Or perhaps it's the UI color of the OS (a 'dark theme' can, in theory, reduce the power consumed by the AMOLED screen). Well, we can only guess.
Wireless charging has been long overdue on iPhones and with the 2017 generation, Apple has finally adopted it. It's the reason why these iPhones all have glass backs and we can guess next year's iPhone's will be all glass too. We're glad Apple has adopted the Qi wireless charging standard instead of inventing one of their own.
We also finally got fast charging capability but making use of it isn't exactly straight forward because it reauires the purchase of an expensive and bulky USB-C MacBook charger. Given the price, it's very ungenerous of Apple not to include a fast charger with the iPhone X - a shame indeed.
To add insult to injury, charging the iPhone X either wired or wirelessly, via the included 5W charger is excruciating slow. Testing bears this out achieving around 40% after an hours charge - this is a 2700mAh we're talking about. It's fine for charging overnight but don't expect a solid top up when you're in the coffee shop.
Initially restricted to 5W wireless charging, Apple enabled up to 7.5W charging in the subsequent iOS 11.2 software update (the Qi standard supports up to 15W of charging). Charging via 7.5W wireless in the same test tops the iPhone X up to 46% - an improvement but hardly earth-shattering.
We charge our iPad via Apple's 12W iPad charger and using this will take your iPhone X to 72% charge in that same hour. That's much better but remember - it's an extra purchase, too.
If it's max juice in the shortest time you're after then you'll need to invest in a USB-C charger and USB-C to Lightning cable. This combination will give you more than a 'splash and dash' and will top your tank up to 79% in that same hour.
Given these figures, and what you'd pay for the bulky USB-C charger and cable, we'd recommend using the Apple 12W charger for fast wired charging and a 7.5W wireless 'pad' for the convenience of wireless charging.
A slight downside to the wireless charging implementation with the iPhones is they can be somewhat temperamental that you take care to put them on the correct spot on the charger and not an inch further. The issue is exasperated further if you have a thicker than usual wallet style case.
It would be nice, especially given the power-sipping AMOLED display if iOS 11 showed its charging status on screen.
The iPhone X packs a dual-12MP (wide+telephoto) camera setup, the wide-angle sensor sits behind a f/1.8 lens while the telephoto has been updated with optical stabilization and new wider f/2.4 lens. When combined with the new image processor assisted by the A11 Bionic chip and the iPhone X takes excellent pictures in daytime or low-light.
Shown below are some shots that we took during our travels with the iPhone X main camera demonstrating its capabilities in both full daylight and low-light conditions.
Overall, the camera treated us nicely and we could always rely on it to take great shots. Our only disappointment - the flash output is weaker than the iPhone 8 Plus resulting in overall poorer flash photos.
Just as last year when Apple introduced 'bokeh' Portrait mode effect to the public in 'beta' they continued the trend this year, by introducing a 'beta' called Portrait Lighting which is non-destructive tonal correction which works straight in the camera's viewfinder. Not unique to iPhone X but also supported by the iPhone 8.
As you'll see in the examples below, we still feel the 'beta' tag is well deserved. These examples were shot in low light at 5:00 in the afternoon so you'll see there is more noise than expected. The first picture is Portrait Bokeh which is ok given the overcast lighting conditions and it's doing exactly what it says on the tin and while you can see the differences in Studio and Contour lighting - we can't help but feel that the skin becomes over-exposed and detracts from the subject. Of course this subjective and down to personal taste but we hardly found any use for the first two light effects at this point exactly for this reason.
Where things start to come unstuck are the last two effects which are supposed to separate the subject from whateevr 's around. It's failing miserably with our subject's unruly hair with lots of it being excluded in the separated image and a general smoothing of the hair overall. Edge detection algorithms often struggle with finer details including hair and undoubtedly the low light didn't help.
Portrait - Natural Light Portrait - Studio Light Portrait - Contour Light Portrait - Stage Light Portrait - Stage Light Mono
While now capable of 'bokeh' effects in its portrait mode, the front-facing camera is probably the weakest link in the iPhone X camera setup taking 'ok' pictures but certainly not the best we've seen.
Overall, the iPhone X has an excellent primary camera system and is up there with the best of them. We'll just not count the selfie cam in this discussion.
If you're interested in checking out camera samples from the iPhone X, make sure to go through the assortment found in our full review, additionally check out our photo comparison tool to judge for yourselves - in this link you can compare the iPhone X, Samsung Note 8 and Google Pixel 2 XL.
Oh, as for Animojis - they are a great technology demo utilizing the TrueDepth camera, and we'll leave it at that.

Visiting Faculty Fellows
The Dresher Center for the Humanities at UMBC is pleased to announce our new Visiting Faculty Fellows for 2018-2019 as part of the Inclusion Imperative Program.
Dr. Katherine Bankole-Medina (left), Professor of History at Coppin State University, and Dr. Theresa Runstedtler (right), Associate Professor of History at American University, have each been awarded a full academic year fellowship to advance their research while in residence at the Dresher Center. Dr. Bankole-Medina's project, "African Americans as Specimens, Objects, and Agents: Race and Clinical Care in the Maryland Medical Journal, 1877-1918," is a 40-year account of the lives of African Americans, drawn from the Maryland Medical Journal. Dr. Runstedtler's project, "Black Ball: Rethinking the "Dark Ages" of Professional Basketball," explores the intersection of blackness, masculinity, labor, and criminalization through the lens of 1970s professional basketball.
The Visiting Fellows join a robust humanities center environment that holds public events and symposia, grants workshops, and works-in-progress talks, and hosts UMBC residential faculty and graduate fellows each year. Each Visiting Fellow will partner with a UMBC faculty member with shared research or teaching interests to broaden and deepen the exchange between fellows and the campus community. Fellows receive a generous stipend and research support, as well as access to the Center's administrative and research development services and campus resources.
The Inclusion Imperative is a major five-year initiative to promote diversity and inclusive excellence in the humanities, made possible by a grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. UMBC, in partnership with Bowie State University, Coppin State University, and Howard University, is cultivating a regional network of scholars, who are committed to diversity and inclusion in the humanities. These fundamental partnerships guide the Inclusion Imperative's three programs: the Visiting Faculty Fellowship Program, the Diversity Teaching Network in the Humanities, and the Humanities Teaching Labs. Through these programs, the Inclusion Imperative will support and expand community-engaged humanities research, teaching, and learning focused on issues of equity, inclusion, and justice.

Heat Pump Water Heaters
With technological advances in water heaters and tankless water heaters, it takes almost no time at all for the shower to warm up on a cold morning. Now, with a heat pump water heater, the whole process becomes a lot more efficient and can save energy on water heating up to 60 percent.
Which is important to the overall housing budget. Heating water for the home can use as much energy as a refrigerator, dishwasher, clothes washer and dryer combined. By reducing the amount of energy needed to heat the water, you'll save money as well as help the environment.
How Does a Heat Pump Water Heater Work?
As far as heating water, it's a relatively newer technology. In the past, gas or electricity would warm the water directly. With a heat pump, heat from the surrounding area is drawn into the water heater. Like a refrigerator or air conditioner bringing in cooler air from the surrounding area to keep things chilly, only with heat.
In simplest terms, the warm air is brought in and vaporizes refrigerant, releasing cooler air into the area. The refrigerant vapor is then condensed back into liquid form, releasing the stored into the water. These pumps can be bought as part of a water heating system or be retro-fitted to existing water heaters.
Heat Pump Water Heater Efficiency
In addition to saving energy, and money, heat pump water heaters also produce more hot water than standard gas or electric water heaters. One thing to consider, however, is the area surrounding the device. Since warm air is drawn in, and cooler air is emitted, it can significantly cool the area where the heat pump is housed. While that is a plus in the summer, the heat pump water heater should never be installed where the temperature can dip below 40 degrees. Initial costs are also more than conventional water heaters, the monthly and yearly savings on energy costs still make heat pump water heaters an attractive option.
Heat Pump Rebates in Clark County
Clark County offers incentives for the installation of heat pumps in electrically heated homes. You may qualify for a rebate of between $250 and $1,000, depending on the efficiency rating and your existing heating method.
Here are some of the current utility incentives currently offered for heat pumps:
- $250 rebate for heat pump with efficiency less than 9.0 HSPF. (PTCS commissioning** required)
- $500 rebate for heat pump with efficiency 9.0 HSPF/14 SEER or higher. (Additional $250 rebate for variable speed heat pump. PTCS commissioning** required)
- $750 rebate for heat pump with efficiency 9.0 HSPF/14 SEER or higher when converting from an electric furnace. Additional $250 rebate for variable speed heat pump
We also offer loans for heat pumps. Find out more about Clark County heat pump water heater rebates.

The Best Audio System For Your Car
When looking for a car stereo to fit into the car, a number of items or aspects are considered. The first of these is the purpose of the stereo or auditory system, what the system will at most of the time be used to do. The next one is the age of the person who will be using the stereo and the final one is the type of vehicle that is being installed with the system. However, of most importance and the main thing to be considered are the budget and the specifications of the individual that is looking to have the audio system installed in the vehicle. There are a couple of ways in which one can prefer to install sound in his or her vehicle to suit his or her specifications. The first way is the option of installing a basic system that has tweeters and two mid range speakers. It is common knowledge that a simplified well installed small sound system can be clearer and heard with ease and clarity. This system is suitable for those that prefer their car stereo to be used for the purpose of such outputs as news and talk shows.
The next type of stereo system or audio system is the competition level of system application whereby one can buy a good CD player and also include an equalizer and a booster. There could be the inclusion of tweeters and mid range speakers the same as the basic type only that this time there is the inclusion of added speakers on the rear to boost the sound of the mid range speakers at the front of the vehicle. Equalizers and the booster are essential especially when one wants to fine tune the system's response. Extra batteries may be needed when a person intends to play the music or system for a long time because the equalizer needs power to run the music system.
The last and final system is the SPL system. With this system, the main idea is to be loud especially when in low frequencies. In order for this type of system to be efficient, it needs many speakers, much power to run the system and a compressed space so that the sound can be focused and therefore becoming loud. Obviously this comes out as the most expensive of the three music systems. Of importance here first is the upgrade of the car's electrical system. This therefore means the upgrade of batteries, transistors and capacitors. The most essential of the equipments is the subwoofers. The other systems can also be fitted with surround systems but the one that stands out is this SPL system. In order to move much air, the subwoofers need to comprise of a high excursion (Xmax) and also have a large cone area. With subwoofers, one gives the meaning of bass a whole new meaning. So whatever the specifications one needs, the type of system to use is left up to the car owner.

Ask Customers What You Don't Do Well
When you spend proverbial blood, sweat and tears building a small business, the last thing you probably want to do is ask customers what you're getting wrong. But it doesn't have to be a horrendous experience—and it's a great way to identify and resolve issues before customers leave in a huff, or simply drift to a competitor.
"Our Community team began to ask every customer on the phone, 'What's a great Emma experience you've had?" notes Jim Hitch at the Emma blog. "And what's one that's not so great, so we can improve?' We had some fantastic conversations and got some interesting answers."
Emma's customer had lots of good things to say, but they also noted a few issues that fell into the not-so-great column. For instance:
- They said they'd like an easier billing process and improved resources for savvier users. "We said, 'Can do,'" notes Hitch.
- They also mentioned difficulty reaching Emma staff by phone. "We said, 'Good to know. We're on it,'" he says. "Then we updated our phone system."
The company also discovered that many of its customers were thrilled with the current experience.
"One of the best answers to the question of what we can improve ... was 'none,'" he recalls. "Ahh, what a beautiful four-letter word. In fact, 21% of customers said 'none.'"
The Po!nt: Don't be afraid to ask your customers what needs to be fixed—they'll give you the insights you need to make the improvements that keep them coming back.

After the tremendous disappointment that many of us took to see the blog of Olivia Palermo , one keeps coming every day if that changes. And last night I watched the it girl, a year ago was on everyone's lips, could not resist and went to Macy's to acquire new capsule collection by Giambattista Valli . Once again, proved that this designer is his unconditional love.
Leopard prints, mini-dresses and strapless. We could describe this series of garments that the designer has made as a 'cheap'. Olivia opted for one of the dresses in strapless black (the photo) and although not shown in the picture at the moment it has not hung around, oxford combined it with silver and with a big breasted blazer.
We missed you so much!

Chaos… a new series that is a reflection of the chaos around us.
Connections… recognizes interrelationships as a reaction to dividedness and otherness.
Enlightened Systems… In this series, each piece represents an element that illustrates the quote, "All things are our relatives."
Words… I originally was inspired by an article I read about a person who translates ancient Chinese poetry. The words he used to describe his work touched me. As I continued, I decided to use some of my own favorite words such as Consider, Change and Pause. These pieces are all 15" x 15".
Phrases… Incorporates common phrases and abstract neon shapes to facilitate a dialogue, creating unexpected relationships between the two.
The MENTORS… These works depict people who had a significant impact in helping me find my way.
The GARDEN… This is a series of plant like shapes. Many of them are set in flower boxes. The idea, ultimately, is to create a neon garden.
MIATA series… Small works that fit into the trunk or passenger seat of my Miata. I wanted to get more experience with texture and cast light so I did this series of small pieces. They are all 15" by 15".
FOCUS series…. This body of work explores some of the challenges I encounter trying to stay focused and is an appreciation of those times when I am focused. All of these art works are animated which means the tubes fade up and down in different combinations. The pace is slow creating a feeling of meditation.
SOLO works…. These are individual pieces that are not part of a series. Some were commissions, others were for a specific art show and a few were singular ideas that I had.

Era of Non-Reciprocal Trade for Africa Coming to an End
This article first appeared in my weekly column with the Business Daily on August 5, 2018
Last week, the Trump administration announced the withdrawal of benefits for Rwanda to export apparel duty-free to the US under the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA). This is largely seen as a response to Rwanda's decision to ban second-hand clothes into its market. However, there is a larger trend at play here. We are in an era of trade wars, and serious global disagreements as to what is deemed fair, or not, in trade practice and agreements.
Economic nationalism has found a new lifeline. Economic nationalism here refers to a situation in which a country tries to protect its own economy by reducing, for example, the number of imports from other countries. The largest proponent is of course the USA, where Trump has made clear that his 'America First' policy means the introduction of targeted protective trade measures against countries seen to be taking advantage of the USA's 'generosity' in trade.
(source: https://www.businessdailyafrica.com/analysis/ideas/Rwanda-Agoa-exit-signals-era-of-reciprocal-trading/4259414-4698524-7akplbz/index.html)
However the USA is not alone, there is upsurge in nationalistic pride in the Global North aimed at safeguarding national economic sovereignty. The Harvard Gazette makes the point that Trump's election and Britain's exit from the EU are very encouraging to nationalist groups across Europe, because for the first time, there's a shift away from international cooperation, sharing sovereignty, to addressing the sovereign rights of specific countries. This is exemplified in the rise of Marine Le Pen and other European nationalist party figures in the Netherlands, Hungary, and Greece who touted Trump's win as a positive sign of things to come. Intermingled with nationalism is anti-globalization and anti-immigration policies, and economic nationalism which places the economic welfare of the country above all; especially above African nations. The USA and Europe seem tired of 'babying' Africa and being 'soft' on sovereign African states. They are acutely aware of the problems and suffering in their own countries and communities, and wonder why these issues remain unaddressed while their governments give Africa generous aid and trade packages.
(source: https://www.videoblocks.com/video/global-trade-animated-word-cloud-text-design-animation-hpc-hczyzj23uhf6s)
Africa needs to read the signs and prepare for the future. In an era of growing economic nationalism, Africa can expect fewer trade deals that are non-reciprocal where Africa gets access to massive external markets while the other party does not benefit from penetration into African markets. This is not to say there is no concern with the economic nationalist movements. A KMPG survey revealed that two-thirds of UK CEOs are most worried about the growing use of protectionism, which includes measures such as tariffs and quotas on imports, and view populist politics as the greatest threat to their growth.
That aside, Africa must read the signs and note that the era of non-reciprocity is ending. Sadly, and frankly, this trend is emerging during a time when Africa is not prepared either in terms robust trade negotiation teams nor industrialised economic structures that can compete with foreign nations demanding access to African markets. This movement risks relegating Africa to the eternal provider of raw materials as foreign nations push manufactured goods into African markets. It is important that both African governments and private sector begin to address the imminent era of non-reciprocity.

Banning Used Clothing a Bad Idea
This article first appeared in my weekly column with the Business Daily on April 15, 2018
Ripples of concern spread over Africa when Rwanda was punished by the USA for their ban on the import of used clothing from the USA. In response, the USA announced a 60-day suspension of Rwanda's AGOA duty free privileges on clothing and footwear.
The Rwandan government is of the view that a prohibition of second hand clothes band is crucial for the Rwandan economy. The argument is simple and argues that a ban all imports of second-hand clothing is necessary to strengthen their textile industry. With textile and apparel a key component of their industrialisation strategy, the ban on used clothes seeks to tap into domestic demand for clothing to strengthen the domestic textile industry.
(source: https://www.businessdailyafrica.com/analysis/ideas/Why-banning-mitumba-is-a-bad-idea/4259414-4395006-3smd5w/index.html)
The view here is that beyond the loss of livelihood issue, the ban on used clothing is a bad idea, not so much because of the ire it will draw from the USA, but because it's bad economics. Firstly, used clothing allows Africans to buy a wide range of clothes and shoes affordably. At the moment, the price point at which local manufacturers sell their clothes and shoes are too high, particularly for low income Africans who have very limited funds. With a poverty rate of 35.6 percent, the reality is that many Kenyans have to pinch their pockets to clothe themselves. The used clothing market allows millions of Kenyans to buy clothes for as little as KES 30; these price points do not exist in the clothing produced by the domestic textile industry. Thus, in banning used clothing, government would essentially be imposing a fine on the poor, forcing them to put even more of their limited income to basic items such as clothing.
Secondly, local clothes and shoes manufacturers do not have the capacity to meet the demand for clothing and shoes in the domestic market. Thus, a ban on used clothes presents the very real risk of excess demand pushing the price of new clothing even higher.
(source: http://voicesofafrica.co.za/second-hand-clothing-donations-creating-dilemma-kenya/)
Thirdly, a ban on used clothing in a context where used clothes are the most cost effective and preferred channel for clothing will create a black market. This shadow market will operate outside legal parameters and will penalise consumers in terms of price point because the risk of peddling contraband will have to be priced into the clothing on sale. Thus, there is the risk that a ban on used clothing will create a shadow market from which many will be forced to buy their clothing, because it will likely still be the cheaper option, but a price point higher than that which existed when the sale of used clothing was legal. Thus again, the poor will be unnecessarily fined due to government policy.
What would make sense is to start a gradual ban on new clothing imports and encourage local manufacturers to make clothes for that domestic new clothing market segment first. This should be coupled with government support to local manufacturers so that local companies can make a wide variety of clothing and shoes available at reasonable prices. A ban on used clothing would only make sense when local manufactures are able to produce clothing and shoes at a price point similar to that in the used clothing market.

Dynamics in Manufacturing in East Africa
This article first appeared in my weekly column with the Business Daily on September 4, 2016
Last week I attended and presented at a roundtable on Manufacturing in Kenya hosted by the Overseas Development Institute (ODI). The roundtable was under ODI's Supporting Economic Transformation Programme (SET) which is supported by DFID. As part of the roundtable I developed a paper on manufacturing in Kenya and thought it would be useful to share some insights I unearthed during my research on manufacturing in the East Africa region.
At the moment, the manufacturing sector in Kenya is the largest in the East Africa region. However in terms of growth, other countries in East Africa are growing at a faster rate. Data from ODI indicate that the growth of the manufacturing sector in Kenya is growing far slower than Ethiopia, Rwanda, Tanzania and Uganda. If this trend continues, other East African countries will begin to dominate manufacturing in the region. Further, governments in East Africa seem to be putting in more pronounced effort to build manufacturing through the creation of industrial parks in countries such as Ethiopia and making land available for manufacturing particularly for labour intensive manufacturing. Uganda and Tanzania are also determinedly positioning themselves as investment destinations for manufacturing in Africa. This impetus needs to be more strongly echoed in Kenya from the highest levels of county and national government. Further, while Kenya remains an attractive investment destination for manufacturing, other countries in the region are aggressively courting such investment. And frankly there is a growing sense that the bureaucracy and corruption in Kenya as well as difficulty in getting the right information on requirements linked to building manufacturing plants in the country are hampering investment into the sector.
(source: https://images.enca.com/encadrupal/styles/600_383/s3/WEB_PHOTO_AFRICA_CLOTHING_26082015.jpg)
That said, the good news from a regional perspective is that the East African Community (EAC) is seeking to position itself as the next global manufacturing destination. This is positive and long overdue because clearly there is room for growth in the sector in the region. According to the African Development Bank the combined manufacturing sector of seven countries in Eastern Africa as a whole is only about one-third the size of the manufacturing sector in Vietnam, which has a population one-third the size of the seven countries. If the East Africa region is to become the 'go-to' location for investment in manufacturing in Africa, more coordination of manufacturing policy and activity across the EAC as well as with Eastern African countries outside the EAC is needed.
However, from a Kenyan perspective there are issues within the East Africa region that negatively inform the growth of manufacturing in the country. An on-going issue that adversely affects the uptake of manufactured products from Kenya in the region is pricing. Cost of production in Kenya remains high which makes the end price point of Kenyan manufactured goods high. This cost of production issue essentially promotes the purchase of cheap manufactured imports from India and China that have aggressively entered the regional market and routinely undercut Kenyan manufactured equivalents on price point.
(source: http://tinypitch.blob.core.windows.net/tpdata/iV5cJFV3EekeC1mUy9ZgQ/7aOtGsiJU0qlKHujMnvw.jpg)
Another dynamic affecting the growth of Kenyan manufacturing in the region is related to the competition emerging between manufacturing sectors in East Africa. Due to development of manufacturing in neighbouring countries a scenario is emerging where neighbouring countries seem to want to reserve domestic markets for domestically manufactured products. Thus there is a sense that neighbouring countries in the EAC seek to prevent Kenyan manufactured goods from entering their countries because they want to keep domestic markets to themselves. Thus, perhaps EAC markets are not as open as one would hope.
What is clear is that it that challenges exist for the Kenyan manufacturing sector from a regional perspective. At the same time, there is ample opportunity for the region to sell itself as the manufacturing hub of Africa. The question is how to balance national ambitions with regional development goals; perhaps it is time for a candid conversation on this issue.

Manufacturing in Africa is growing faster than assumed
This article first appeared in my weekly column with the Business Daily on May 1, 2016
Last week the Overseas Development Institute (ODI) published an interesting paper on export-based manufacturing potential in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The report states that contrary to the common view, production, employment, trade and foreign direct investment in the manufacturing sectors has actually increased over the past decade in SSA. Between 2005 and 2014, manufacturing production more than doubled from $73 billion to $157 billion, growing 3.5% annually in real terms; some are higher with Uganda's manufacturing growing by 5% over 2010-2014, Zambia's by 6% over 2008-2012; and Tanzania's by more than 7% in the last decade. Further, SSA countries are increasingly exporting manufactures to each other (20% of total trade in 2005, 34% in 2014), and a great deal of FDI into manufacturing is among and between African countries.
The report states that there are exceptional manufacturing opportunities in garments and textiles, agro-processing and horticulture, automobiles and consumer goods. However, the share of manufacturing in total employment fell from 10% in 1991 to 8.5% in 2013. This is important to note because although manufacturing is growing, the employment creation ability of the sector seems more muted than it used to be. Perhaps factors such as the growing role of technology in manufacturing is important and may reflect the gradual technological deepening in African manufacturing exports over the past decade.
(source: http://www.fashionatingworld.com/images/Textile-industry-Africa.jpg)
The report is very sober in noting the reality that Africa's (all Africa, not just SSA) share in total world manufacturing exports remains less than 1%, and this has fallen marginally since 2010. Yet the good news is that between 2005 and 2014 exports from Africa as a whole (not just SSA) grew at an average annual rate of 10% or higher in the product groups analysed.
In terms of insights on Kenya, Kenya's share of manufacturing exports is higher than that of Ethiopia and Rwanda. Further, the intra-African trade share in Kenya was high at 67.5 percent in 2013. But, as the report notes, this figure ought to be considered in the reality that the coastal countries with large ports, such as Kenya, facilitate import and export trade in the region pushing trade numbers up. Top manufacture products from Kenya include apparel, clothing and accessories; perfume, cosmetics and cleansers; iron and steel, and inorganic chemicals. However, compared to the peers in the report, Kenya has a lower share of domestic value-added (DVA) content of gross exports as a share of total exported value added with DVA standing at a lower than average 62 percent. The most promising sectors in manufacturing in Kenya detailed in the report, in terms of revealed comparative advantage, include automatic typewriters and word-processing machines, self-adhesive paper and paperboard, hair-nets, safety pins of iron or steel, carbonates, flat-rolled products of iron or non-alloy steel, and leather.
As ODI's Dirk Willem te Velde states, industrial development is crucial for human development and leads to wealth creation, economy-wide productivity change, greater incomes, significant job creation and resilience throughout the economy. As a development economist, there are two keen points of interest for me in terms of informally assessing the development potential of manufacturing. First, is the extent to which manufacturing can absorb low skilled labour given that Kenya's population's average years of schooling is 6.5 years. The second issue is the employment creation potential of manufacturing. For too long Africa has been seen to support the jobless growth phenomena where the economy is growing but formal job creation is lacklustre.
(source: http://www.greenconduct.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/jobless.jpg)
The report provides some insight on these issues by looking at Tanzania. The highest low-skilled employment potential in Tanzania is in agricultural products; this good news given the importance of agriculture to countries such as Kenya and Tanzania. In terms of employment potential, for Tanzania, agriculture comes out on top again. Agricultural products such as high-value vegetables and fruits, processed grains, processed meat, wood products and leather have high employment potential. Thus, the good news is that it is possible for agriculture, a dominant player in African economies, to be best placed to absorb low skilled labour and have high employment potential. This should provide impetus for Kenya to do a similar type of analysis and closely examine the important role agro-processing can have in reaping development dividends for the country. But bear in mind that the issues of high wages is an overall constraint for the sector. Labour costs in SSA are generally higher (when measured relative to GDP per capita) than in low-and middle-income comparator countries in Asia and Latin America.

Delete Facebook Account Permanently Had enough of Facebook? Here's how to permanently remove your profile from the social network
Facebook could be a useful gizmo with regard to remaining in contact with whomever you choose however for a few people, the bombardment associated with updates, communications, loves, pokes as well as ads may almost all turn into a little bit mind-boggling, not forgetting extremely addicting.
In a study by researchers at the University of Winchester, ten self-confessed Facebook "addicts" were asked to stop using their accounts for four weeks. Many quickly became isolated from friends and family and reported feeling "cut off from the world".
Ongoing questions over user Facebook's privacy practices – including a class action lawsuit in Austria involving 25,000 users that claim Facebook illegally tracked users' browsing habits via software installed on other web pages, and participated in "Prism", the American spy programme – are also making some people reconsider their membership of the social network.
When you've experienced sufficient and wish to eliminate your own accounts, you might have 2 choices. You are able to possibly disconnect a person accounts, meaning your own user profile goes away through the social networking, however, all the details of your accounts is actually stored upon Facebook's machines in the event you choose hey return, you might as well completely remove your own accounts, meaning all of your information is actually eliminated and you may be unable to restore accessibility.
Depending on whether or not you think you might want to return, here's what you need to do:
Deactivating your account temporarily means you have the option to return to Facebook whenever you want.
- Go To Facebook Log in Your Account
- Click the Dropdown arrow at the top right of any Facebook page
- Select "Settings"
- Click "Security" Tab in the left column
- Choose "Deactivate your account", then follow the steps to confirm
If you deactivate your account your profile won't be visible to other people on Facebook and people won't be able to search for you, but some information, such as messages you sent to friends, may still be visible to others.
If decide you'd like to go back to Facebook, you can reactivate your account at any time by logging in with your email and password. Your profile will be restored in its entirety.
If you don't think you'll use Facebook again, you can request to have your account permanently deleted. However, after an account has been deleted it won't be possible to reactivate your account or retrieve anything you've shared on your profile.
Before you do this, you may want to download a copy of your information from Facebook:
- Go To Facebook Log in Your Account
- Click the Dropdown arrow at the top right of any Facebook page
- Select "Settings"
- Click on the link at the bottom of the main menu that says "Download a copy of your Facebook data".
Then you need to go to https://www.facebook.com/help/delete_account, click on "Delete my account", then follow the steps to confirm.
It might take as much as 90 days with regard to Facebook in order to remove all the points might published, the pictures, position updates or even some other information saved in backup techniques. Whilst Facebook is actually removing these details, it really is unavailable some other individuals utilizing the social networking.
A few of the things perform upon Facebook are not saved in your own accounts. Like a buddy might have communications of your mouth within their mailbox. Which info will stay despite a person remove your own accounts, which means you will have to get in touch with the actual people associated with you would like this eliminated.

- "Capture and defend, Guardians!"
- — Lord Shaxx
Control is a Crucible match type.
It is a 6v6 mode where the teams have to take control of three flags scattered across a map, and hold them against enemy attack. Points are scored for holding a flag zone, and scoring kills. The first team to score 20,000 points wins.
Point work as follows:
- 25 points: Neutralizing an enemy zone
- 75 points: Capturing a control point
- 100 points: Killing an enemy, +50 points for each control point held at the time
Map control is the main objective, and teams that do not hold and navigate the map correctly will be set at a disadvantage. Two points minimum are required in order for a team to have a strong point flow to stay in the lead. Novice players and teams will assume that holding one point and out killing the other team will suffice, but this is rarely if ever the case. Trying to hold three points if often considered a poor idea, as it leads to the team being stretched thin, and leaves all three points open to attack. On top of holding down point, map awareness is paramount, knowing routes to move through and cover. Not all maps are equal in layout, and in many cases attempting to flip spawn sides is highly recommended to make full on the better positioning. Heavy Ammo typically spawns near A and C points, so each team is likely to be able to secure one crate at least. Defensive Supers are also quite strong in point defense, and can help make up for a numbers disadvantage.

In this era of cloud growth and consolidation entrepreneurs and innovation are rampant. Enter TIG CEO Des Lekerman…
Watford-based TIG began its commercial life as The Internet Group in 2001 – a small start-up with two staff. It soon built a reputation for providing top notch IT support to companies across Europe and has since expanded its expertise into a much wider arena. Lekerman joined TIG in 2013 when he acquired a majority stake in the business and took control of its strategic direction, introducing data analytics and cybersecurity as core go-to-market services, and forging a partnership with Microsoft for the Azure platform which TIG customises using its own IP to build industry specific solutions. Late last year the company entered the Global Top 100 of Public Cloud Service Providers.
TIG's transformational acquisition of netConsult in January strengthens its presence and capabilities in the financial services sector, particularly in security and monitoring. "The acquisition is another step towards our goal of becoming the UK's primary cloud services provider for medium sized UK businesses," stated Lekerman. "We intend to extend netConsult's expertise to other customers who are now looking at security as a major area of investment, especially with the new rules and regulations that came into force last year. Most organisations feel exposed by having little or no security and this is an area where TIG can step in to provide support."
The acquisition of netConsult is not Lekerman's first big foray into the financial services industry. Early in his career he spent two years in Chicago learning how to trade commodities while working on the Chicago Board of Trade. But in the late 1980s the market crashed so he returned to the UK. Unable to find a similar position in financial services Lekerman went into computer sales for a local firm in Manchester. A year later he decided to strike out on his own and with a colleague started up Eurodata which grew to £30 million revenue with over 400 customers on its books. In 2011 the company was sold to a competitor, which was later sold on to Capita.
Cloud adoption is still in its infancy but we anticipate the market to scale significantly over the next 12 months
In preparation for TIG's next phase of growth Lekerman has formalised the Board with the appointments of Non-Exec Chairman Mark Howling (who was formerly Pulsant's CEO) and Non-Exec Corporate Finance Director Ronnie Smith (ex-Six Degrees Group). The company has also put in more controls, compliancy and processes, all of which helped to attract a £6 million funding boost from BGF.
The business generates circa £12.1 million revenue, has 90 staff and is seeking EBITDA growth of 15 per cent organically and has plans to execute further acquisitions to broaden its capabilities in cloud provision and professional services. Target customers are forward thinking mid-market companies that will consume large amounts of data and understand how technology can drive efficiencies, enable faster decisions and create new revenue streams.
"The projects we have delivered are on the cutting edge of innovation, including elements such as machine learning, automation and identity and access management," stated Lekerman. "We have a great team who are able to appreciate the distinct requirements of each client and adapt the technology to work for their specific needs. I am passionate about technology and how it can help people work smarter, communicate better and in turn improve lives."
In 2016 TIG really got to work on Microsoft cloud and built solutions for full cloud and hybrid, and went on to achieve Microsoft Gold Partner status for Cloud Platform and Cloud Productivity. "We have built a data analytics practice and developed easy-to-consume solutions that, through our microservices layer, provide intelligence and dashboards which enable customers to interpret trends quickly," stated Lekerman.
"One of the biggest challenges in business is the growth of data, and having the ability to present this with intelligence enables our customers to make faster decisions. There are many companies out there able to offer managed IT services, but our strategy is to stand out by providing technical solutions that improve overall business performance. The market has grown substantially over the last year and we have seen 1,000 per cent growth in our cloud services.
"Cloud adoption is still in its infancy but we anticipate the market to scale significantly over the next 12 months as companies look to refresh their current on-premise services. We see more and more demand for Platform as a Service and less infrastructure, although there will always be connectivity requirements as well as security, identity and access management."

Great service and a great car!
By ANDY W on 30 August 2017 | Verified purchase
After some less than inspiring visits to other garages, Drumgray was a massive relief - friendly, knowledgeable and really wanted to help us. We bought from them and have not regretted it - we got a great car and outstanding service. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
Friendly and professional company.
By Shereen C on 27 July 2017 | Verified purchase
Excellent, friendly and professional service right from the start. Very happy with our car and the after care service we received. We actually received a phonecall from them a week after our purchase just to make sure we were happy with our car and that everything was ok. This was a nice surprise as there's not many places who would bother to check on you after they had got your money. I would definitely highly recommend Drumgray Vehicles to anyone looking to purchase a car.

After about 8 months of looking i finally found the car i wanted at Drumgray Vehicles, an 09 Mazda 3 2.2 in Celestial blue. I popped over on a Saturday Morning and was dealing with Scott, while i was there however i saw a 12 plate Mazda 3 so Scott arranged for me to test drive both of them on the Monday night, i left with finance to be arranged on the Gray one as my head was telling me to go for the newer one, but overnight i changed my mind and decided that the blue one was the one for me, i told Scott the next day and it wasn't a problem. I picked the car up a week later on the Saturday morning and i love it. I at no point felt any pressure to buy and i have found the whole experience great, nothing has been to much trouble and customer service has been amazing. I would certainly recommend these guys and say if you see a car they have in stock pay them a visit i don't think you will be disappointed.
Pleasant experience
By Bridgit L on 17 June 2017 | Verified purchase
I bought my car about six weeks ago. Sales staff was very polite, knowledgeable, helpful and efficient. They even gave the car a quick mini service before I collected it. The showroom is looking great, the cars are very clean and look shiny. I had a minor noise problem with my car within the warranty period and upon calling Drumgray they sorted it within a day. Over all I can recommend this company.
Friendly, professional service.
By IAIN R on 15 December 2016 | Verified purchase
From the moment I phoned to enquire about my new potential car, I was greeted with a friendly, warm and couldn't do enough for you attitude. This was very refreshing having dealt with other dealerships with below par customer service. Martin and his team made buying a new car a joy. Thanks again and I would definetly consider visiting Drumgray Vehicles if considering purchasing another car.
Great Service!

i have just purchased my forth vehicle from drumgray vehicles,i was delighted at how much money i was given for the car i was trading in and also at how much they were asking for an outstanding jaguar that my wife has now claimed is hers,the guys at drumgray are a pleasure to deal with and always treat you as a valuable customer which is nice,this is the first time i have filled in a survey for this garage but certainly not the first time i have recommended them to family and friends,i am looking forward to enjoying our jaguar and when the time comes will have no second thoughts on where i will be trading it back into.

It's Ironic that in the short history of the United States we've went from being a country that had legal cocaine, to a country that had illegal alcohol (prohibition). Now we're not talking about the cocaine that makes you high and entices you into running down the street butt-naked yelling, "SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND!!" but we're talking about the amounts that numb up the mouth (about the amount that was in Coca Cola).
Now, the alcohol Prohibition gave birth and strength to the Mob, the Speakeasy, the Rum Runner (speed boats), and NASCAR (the largest spectator sport in the US). I'm not suggesting we need to legalize any drugs but what we should learn is that Prohibition of any drugs does not work; and never will. If demand is present, supply will ALWAYS be met.
But, despite all of the intellectual/philosophical talk; aren't those images amazing??

Is this Non-Compete Agreement Enforceable?
I am often asked by business clients to prepare non-compete agreements for employees. As you might imagine, many businesses feel more secure knowing that their key employees are restricted from leaving and then going to work for business competitors. I am also asked by business executives to review non-compete agreements and consult on whether and how to strategically pursue a career opportunity. In both instances, the crucial issue centers on whether the non-compete is legally enforceable. The enforceability of a non-compete agreement is treated differently in every state. Some states, such as Florida, have enacted statutes that regulate non-compete agreements while other states, such as Tennessee, have a body of law applicable to non-competes that has been developed by the courts. In Tennessee, covenants not to compete are generally disfavored by the courts because they are deemed to be a restraint of trade and may place an inequitable burden upon […]Continue Reading

In cirrhosis, portal vein thrombosis (PVT) could be a cause or a consequence of the progression of liver disease. We analyzed data from a prospective trial of ultrasound screening for hepatocellular carcinoma in order to identify risk factors for and the impact of PVT in patients with cirrhosis. In all, 1,243 adults with cirrhosis without PVT were enrolled from 43 liver units in France and Belgium between June 2000 and March 2006. The mean follow-up was 47 months. Doppler ultrasonography was used to check the portal vein. Progression of liver disease was defined by the development of: ascites, hepatic encephalopathy, variceal bleeding, prothrombin <45%, serum bilirubin >45 μmol/L, albumin <28 g/L, and/or creatinine >115 μmol/L. G20210A prothrombin and factor V gene mutations were assessed in sera stored at three large centers. The 5-year cumulative incidence of PVT was 10.7%. PVT was mostly partial and varied over time. The development of PVT was independently associated with baseline esophageal varices (P = 0.01) and prothrombin time (P = 0.002), but not with disease progression before PVT, or prothrombotic mutations. Disease progression was independently associated with baseline age (hazard ratio [HR] 1.55; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.11-2.17), body mass index (HR 1.40; 95% CI: 1.01-1.95), prothrombin time (HR 0.79; 95% CI: 0.70-0.90), serum albumin (HR 0.97; 95% CI: 0.94-0.99), and esophageal varices (HR 1.70; 95% CI: 1.21-2.38) but not with the prior development of PVT (HR 1.32; 95% CI: 0.68-2.65).
In patients with cirrhosis, the development of PVT is associated with the severity of liver disease at baseline, but does not follow a recent progression of liver disease. There is no evidence that the development of PVT is responsible for further progression of liver disease.
