City Hall in Albany, between 1900 and 1910. Image courtesy of the Library of Congress, Detroit Publishing Company Collection.
Albany's current City Hall was built in 1883 to replace an earlier building that burned in a fire. It was designed by noted architect Henry Hobson Richardson, and not much has changed about its appearance in the past 100 years, other than the addition of the clock face on the tower.
The White House, as it appeared in either the 1880s or 1890s. Image courtesy of the Library of Congress, Detroit Publishing Company Collection.
The White House doesn't look all that different from what it looked like in the late 19th century, and yet almost everything about it has changed. The East Wing and West Wing, which aren't visible in the 2012 photo, didn't exist at the time of the first photo, nor did the third floor on the roof, or the second floor balcony behind the pillars. But, the most dramatic changes in the past 120 or so years came in the late 1940's, when the badly-deteriorated wood frame was in danger of collapse. The entire interior was gutted, the wood frame was replaced with steel, and the interior put back into place afterward (see this photo of bulldozers and dump trucks at work inside the White House). The exterior, however, remains much the same as it did after the reconstruction following its burning during the War of 1812.
Again, the view isn't exact – the 2006 photo is zoomed in a little further than the original photo, but it captures much the same area, including the Capitol, the Smithsonian Castle, and the Museum of Natural History. The Library of Congress is also barely visible behind and to the right of the Capitol, although the Supreme Court Building is notably missing from the first photo – it wouldn't be built until 1935. The National Mall, though, didn't have the same carefully-manicured appearance in the early 1900's as it does today – at the time, it was very much a work in process.
The view looking northeast from the top of the Washington Monument, between 1906 and 1915. Image courtesy of the Library of Congress, Detroit Publishing Company Collection.
The two photos don't quite line up perfectly, but since I took the present-day photo over seven years ago without having the older one in mind, I would say I came pretty close. The early 20th century photo, though, shows the view of DC a little further to the right than what I actually took in 2006. Still, though, there are a few landmarks visible in both – in particular, the Old Post Office Pavilion located on the far right of the 2006 photo. Otherwise, much has changed – the low-rise buildings in the foreground were replaced by the massive present-day government buildings that were built in the 1930's, and currently house the US Department of Commerce and the Environmental Protection Agency.
The view of the White House, as seen from the top of the Washington Monument between 1906 and 1915. Image courtesy of the Library of Congress, Detroit Publishing Company Collection.
Unlike the view looking slightly northwest of here, there have not been many dramatic changes in this photo. The White House is there, as are the two wings (although both the main building and the wings have been extensively gutted and remodeled in the intervening century), and the Old Executive Office Building (left of the White House) and the Treasury Building (right of the White House) are still there, as are the landscaping features such as the Ellipse in the foreground. Otherwise, the appearance of the city, given skyscrapers are not permitted, remains much the same as it did 100 years ago.


The end of summer (ie: the end of bathing suit season) also brings cooler weather. This means that we dress in layers and usually don't mind having that extra mocha latte and piece of chocolate cake. After all, it's not like you have to slip into a bathing suit at this time of the year. However, if your vacation is just around the bend and you need to buckle down and get your beach body back, here are a few exercises that will sculpt your core and give you the confidence to wear next to nothing.
Planning for your next vacation doesn't have to be difficult. If you take it a single step at a time and you start early, it is actually quite simple. Let these following tips help you when you are planning your next trip.
Determine where you are going to go on your vacation. This might seem a simple enough task but if you are trying to plan with your family or friends, it can take longer than you think. Everyone is going to have his or her own opinion of the best place to go. You can consider everyone's opinion, but it is going to be your budget that ultimately determines where you are going to travel!
While on vacation many of us go for a walk, jog, or hit the hotel gym for a morning workout. In our minds, the pool is reserved for the swim-up bar, kids playing Marco-Polo, or a cool retreat from the heated pool deck. Ever thought about switching up your workout and moving it from the land to the water? Here is some information about different water activities. The number of calories burned will be based on a 150lb individual.
Have you ever wondered how many bottles of rum you are allowed to bring back from the Caribbean? Or how many cigars you are allowed to bring back from Cuba? Or even how much clothing you are allowed to buy while you are travelling in the United States?
Being from North America definitely has its benefits, in that English is a common language throughout the world. North American's can go pretty well anywhere in the world and get by, or in some cases barely squeak by (like northern Italy or some parts of Asia and the Middle East) with our mother tongue.
Located in the region of Lombardy, Lake Como is Italy's 3rd largest Lake. This beautiful Lake is tucked into the northern Italian mountains, is only a few minutes drive to the Switzerland boarder, and a mere 40km from Milan. A popular travel destination since Roman times, this gorgeous Lake is the perfect vacation for sightseers, honeymooners, photographers and families.
If your resort is close enough to Havana, it is worth while breaking away from the beach for a day to check out the historical center of the capital city. Not only is it the capital of the country, but it is a major port and leading commercial center of Cuba.
Havana was founded by the Spanish in the 16th century and due to its strategic location it served as a springboard for the Spanish conquest. In 1592, the Spaniards began building fortifications in the capital. Before long, the port had become the most important in the Spanish colonial empire. The 17th and 18th centuries saw Havana grow steadily in wealth and size.
Let's face it, sometimes instead of suiting up and locating your hotel's fitness facility, it is much easier to put yourself through a quick workout right there in your room. All you need is a couple square feet of space and your body weight to carry out this 20 minute core blasting workout.
After warming up, do 2-3 sets of the following 6 exercises. Two of the exercises focus on the frontal abdominals, two focus on the obliques or 'sides', and two exercises focus on the backside of your torso (dorsal).
New Zealand is an interesting place, filled with national parks and some of the most beautiful scenery in the world. The area is so lovely that it was the setting for film version of The Lord of the Rings, Tolkien's epic tale turned movie by Peter Jackson. The famed director, and New Zealand native, is filming The Hobbit there as well. It is possible to see some of the sites where the original films were shot.
Is Your Car Ready for Your Road Trip?
The thought of a road trip is always fun and exciting no matter if it is your first or it is your one hundred and first. You have a few things that you need to consider before you take your car out onto the open road though for your vacation.

Q: Existence of solutions for $x(t)=\sin(t)+\int_0^t\frac{x(s)}{\sqrt{s}}ds $ Use the fixed point theorem (or it's generalization) to show there is a continuous function  (unique???) $x:[0,1]\to \mathbb{R}$ such that $$x(t)=\sin(t)+\int_0^t\frac{x(s)}{\sqrt{s}}ds $$
Comment:  We usually define an operator on the space $\mathcal{C}[0,1]$, and using the sup norm $\|\cdot\|_{\infty}$ we prove that for $x,y\in\mathcal{C}[0,1]$, we have  $ |Tx(t)-Ty(t)|\leq L\|x-y\|_{\infty}$, if $L<1$ the theorem guarantees the existence of this unique solution, however the term $\frac{1}{\sqrt{s}}$ near to $0$ makes it difficult. Should I use other theorem rather then this?
If I do this $$|Tx(t)-Ty(t)| = \left|\int_0^t\frac{x(t)-y(t)}{\sqrt{s}}ds \right|\leq \|x-y\|_\infty\int_0^t\frac{1}{\sqrt{s}}ds \leq 2\|x-y\|_{\infty}$$

A: Let us define the mapping $\Phi:C[0, 1]\rightarrow C[0, 1]$ by
\begin{align}
\Phi(u)(t)= \sin t + \int^t_0 \frac{u(s)}{\sqrt{s}}\ ds.
\end{align}
Actually, let us first check that $\Phi$ indeed maps $C[0, 1]$ to $C[0, 1]$. By direct computation, we have that
\begin{align}
|\Phi(u)(t)-\Phi(u)(t')| \le&\ |\sin t-\sin t'|+\int^t_{t'} \frac{|u(s)|}{\sqrt{s}}\ ds \\
\le&\ |t-t'| + \|u\|_\infty \int^t_{t'}\frac{ds}{\sqrt{s}}\\
\le&\ |t-t'| +2 \|u \|_\infty |\sqrt{t}-\sqrt{t'}|.
\end{align}
Hence, it is clear that $\Phi(u)(t)$ is continuous if $u$ is continuous (in fact, it suffices to be bounded).
Let us show that $\Phi$ is a contraction on a smaller interval $[0, T]$. Observe that
\begin{align}
\|\Phi(u)-\Phi(v)\|_\infty\le \sup_{t \in [0, T]}\int^t_0 \frac{\|u-v\|_\infty}{\sqrt{s}}\ ds = 2\sqrt{T}\|u-v\|_\infty.
\end{align}
If $2\sqrt{T}<1$, then $\Phi$ is a contraction. Hence, we have a unique solution on $[0, T]$. Repeat this argument a finite number of times, then you will have the desired result.

Scientific Evidence Supports Breast Cancer Screening For Women in Their 40s
November 28, 2011 Read More About the Author Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation Categories: News & Events Topics: Mammogram, research 0 comments
"Since 1-in-6 women who die from breast cancer are diagnosed in their 40s, we simply cannot afford to see missed opportunities for earlier detection" Palmaro said. "Scientific evidence, including data from British Columbia, shows that screening women in their 40s through organized programs can help to save lives."
Strong scientific evidence and public demand exists for screening Canadian women aged 40-49 for breast cancer, the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation (CBCF) said today in response to new screening guidelines released by the Canadian Task Force on Preventive Health Care.
"The fact is scientific evidence demonstrates that earlier detection and diagnosis can save lives among women 40-49 by at least 25%," said Sandra Palmaro, CEO, Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation – Ontario Region.
Palmaro added that screening can help find cancers that are smaller and haven't spread, which can allow for better treatment options and reduced disability and death from breast cancer. Breast cancer continues to be the most frequently diagnosed cancer among Canadian women.
One of CBCF's most significant concerns about the Task Force report is that it relied heavily on old data from "randomized controlled trials" (RCT's) related to breast cancer screening and mammography, some of which are 25 – 40 years old and were based on equipment that is now outdated. There has been an enormous change in breast imaging since that time, including significant improvements to analog technology, and the continued adoption of digital mammography across Canada. Digital mammography has been shown to increase accuracy in younger women pre and perimenopausal women, and women with dense breasts, the group the Task Force recommends be excluded.
"This undermines the scientific basis for the Task Force's conclusions," said Dr. Martin Yaffe of Sunnybrook Research Institute. "Screening technology is significantly more sophisticated and accurate at detecting breast cancer today than it was when those studies were done."
Dr. Yaffe chaired a Scientific Advisory Committee during the CBCF It's About Time conference that included in its review more recent observational studies from Europe and Canada. The conference's It's About Time report issued in October, 2010, concluded that there are benefits of screening women in their 40's that include savings lives through earlier diagnosis.
"All RCTs have limitations due to non-compliance (when women invited to be screened decline) and contamination (when women in the control group have mammography outside the trial) and therefore RCTs also underestimate the benefits of screening," says Dr. Paula Gordon of BC Women's Hospital.
"It's critically important to consider these issues in the context of today's technology and in terms of the real life experiences of Canadian women. That evidence strongly supports screening women beginning at age 40," said Gordon. "Our own data from BC show 25-39% mortality reduction among screened women aged 40-49. And these data were derived even before widespread implementation of digital mammography."
CBCF is encouraging the six provinces and territories where women 40-49 are not eligible to participate in their organized screening program – Ontario, Manitoba, Newfoundland and Labrador, New Brunswick, Quebec and Saskatchewan – to take a first step in allowing women 40-49 access to organized screening programs where possible and if recommended by a health care provider. This is the current practice in Alberta while in BC, Nova Scotia, PEI, Northwest Territories and Yukon women do not require a health care provider's recommendation to participate in organized screening programs.
CBCF's position is also consistent with the breast cancer screening guidelines from the National Cancer Institute, the American Cancer Society, and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, all of which recommend that women begin screening at 40 years of age.
"Since 1-in-6 women who die from breast cancer are diagnosed in their 40s, we simply cannot afford to see missed opportunities for earlier detection" Palmaro said. "Scientific evidence, including data from British Columbia, shows that screening women in their 40s through organized programs can help to save lives."
While all screening tests, including mammography, have both benefits and limitations, Canadian women appear to be more concerned about being thoroughly-tested than the possibility of a false alarm. A recent Canadian survey conducted by Strategic Communications Inc, sought the views of 1,670 women on the topic of breast cancer screening.
When surveyed, women were provided information about the potential for "false positives" during screening and what the outcomes of those results could be, 87.5 per cent of respondents still felt organized screening for women 40-49 offered either "much more benefit" or "more benefit" than limitation.
The survey found that if offered the choice between two theoretical screening tests:
A majority (63 percent) of Canadian women would choose a screening test that "never misses cancer but 1-in-10 tests are false alarms." Only 20 per cent would choose a test that "misses 1-in-3 cancers but gives no false alarms." CBCF encourages women to make an informed decision about breast cancer screening by learning about the benefits and limitations of screening and to speak with a health care provider about what is right for them.
"While recognizing governments' need to make prudent budget decisions and the need for women over age 50 to continue to have full access to organized screening, CBCF believes we should work toward all Canadian women aged 40-49 participating in provincial and territorial organized breast cancer screening programs with a healthcare provider's recommendation," Palmaro said.

I believe each one of us SAHMS could open a school or a course with all of the learnings we've got from taking care of our children exclusively for the period of time we've done it so far.
I personally have learned a few things I want to share with you and would love to know if you resonate with this.
8. Some women envy me because they have to work and I'm at home "doing nothing". Sure! I just take care of a little human that makes tantrums, hates diaper changes, follows me to the bathroom, while I tidy the whole house, cook breakfast, lunch, dinner, and do laundry, plus other extras. I love the "dolce far niente" lifestyle.
9. Every person that approaches me wants to talk to my child as if he was a 5 or 7 year old. Come on! He just came into this world a year and eight months ago….
Someday I'll add more to this list, I'm sure. But these are principles that come from my own experience. Do you have any that you want to share? I'll be glad to read you!
That's a good one. I agree. Let's be explorers 🙂 Thank you!

Profile: Restaurateur Sam Christie
Sam Christie knows a thing or two about what people like to eat and drink, and where and why they like to do it. As the co-founder of some of Australia's best restaurants, including Longrain, The Apollo and Cho Cho San, Christie has spent more than two decades in the hospitality industry, where he first cut his teeth with a high school job at the Bayswater Brasserie. Here he explains how the drink and dine experience is changing, and why social media has killed the surprise element when it comes to plating up.
How did you get your start in the hospitality industry?
I started working in my school holidays at the famous Bayswater brasserie in the mid 80 as a school holiday job. It was a real institution so a great place to learn: I was setting tables, squeezing juice, taking deliveries, stocking the fridge and cleaning and polishing. My next move was to Centennial Park Café, where I saved up to travel overseas. That opened my eyes to other styles of dining and the more casual, southern European approach, especially in Spain and Greece. I lived in London for a year and worked on the opening of a Quaglino's, the first Conran Group gastro temple, where I even put a plate down in front of Princess Diana. When I returned to Australia I worked at Tetsuya's and Bilson's before deciding to open my own place, which was Longrain.
Longrain exemplified the buzzy, in-the-moment hedonism that has come to define your restaurants. How do you create places that pulse and have the X-factor?
It's about getting everything right, from the lighting and the music to the staff and the décor. The space needs to have a sense of atmosphere, and for us the shared food experience has always been really important. We also have a good focus on the cocktails and wine, and incorporate a bar where people can also dine in a more casual way.
After almost 20 years in business, Longrain closed in June 2019 with the end of its lease. What was the learning curve with your iconic modern take on Thai food, and will see a reincarnation of Longrain sometime soon?
I didn't expect the instant success of the business when we opened in 1999: it was like riding a wave! It was a lot of hard work but also a lot of fun, and we had a good workplace culture, which really helped with staff retention. We didn't rest on our laurels: we evolved Longrain over time and opened in Melbourne then in Tokyo. Right now I'm looking around the inner city at spaces (for a new restaurant) and I went to Thailand for an inspiration trip earlier this year. It's still my intention to re-open but I'm in no hurry.
Everyone says 'we miss Longrain' but I'd prefer to do something new.
What defines the Australian dining experience?
What we do in Australia very well is the smart casual experience: very buzzy and very tasty food but not too reserved or stiff. When we opened The Apollo and Longrain in Tokyo it was a real learning experience for our Japanese staff because culturally we are so different in that sense. In turn, our Japanese partners taught us consistency and attention to detail, which for me has been a great source of inspiration.
How has the hospitality industry evolved since you began?
There are a lot more restaurants in Australia than there were 20 years ago, and a lot more variety. There's been a shift from the entrée-main-desert restaurant to the sharing of food and more home-style eating that has a more Mediterranean and Asian influence. There's been a casualization of dining, and obviously the internet has had a huge influence. With your Trip Advisors and the like people can really drill down, probably way too far, to work out what a place is going to be like before they've even walked in the door. But then when they dine with you they are not expecting what you are actually delivering, they're expecting what they've seen online. People's expectations are greater and the element of surprise has bene reduced: people come in now and point to pictures on their mobile phone of what they want to eat, and they're not even on the menu anymore. Online reservations have changed things as well by depersonalising the process: once upon a time you would talk to people on the phone and build enduring relationships in a human way. There are a lot of pluses to the modernisation of the back end of the business, but there are just as many negatives, like losing that element of surprise when you go out for dinner.
What are the future dining trends for 2020?
People are getting healthier and are more aware of what they are eating and where and who its coming from. That's a wonderful thing. We are at a point now that restaurants are probably a little too cheap for quality of product we are providing and we are hearing a lot about restaurants struggling to succeed because there is an over-supply of them. We have an amazing dining culture in Australia but it's not sustainable. We are changing our model and our staff are working less hours, but it's a question of 'how do we remain creative and how do we evolve while people work 38 hours a week instead of 50 hours a week?' There is less time to have people working on new cocktails and new dishes so that's something we need to grapple with. As far as food goes today, you have to have a good spread of different options, from healthy salads and simply grilled fish to deep fried food, whether its tempura okra at Cho Cho San or Saganaki at The Apollo. People are not going to cook those things at home so you've got to do them. The sustainability element is extremely important, which for us means working on our relationships with our suppliers and showing where things come from and how they get to the table.

I feel like everybody I speak to has one generation that they largely missed out on. For some it's due to getting into gaming after the generation finished or began to wind down, and for some it's simply because the generation largely occurred in that awkward period where you largely relied on others buying consoles or games for you, leaving you with limited opportunities to play. For me, that's where the generation of the PlayStation 2 came, leaving me to completely miss a wide swath of games that have come to be considered some of the best and quirkiest of all time. I'm exactly the target audience for remasters of older games, and with the release of Katamari Damacy REROLL I've finally had the opportunity to experience what is a game unlike any other.
If you've never seen a Katamari game before then prepare for the weirdest and quirkiest experience in the medium. You control the tiny Prince, son of the King of All Cosmos' and soon to be saviour of the galaxy, after the out of control King collides with and destroys every celestial body visible in the night sky. To do this, the Prince must take a trusty Katamari – a spiked ball that other objects stick to – and create exponentially increasing sized balls of junk to replace the celestial bodies by rolling up everything in sight. It's a weird premise, and the game leans into that weirdness with every fibre of its being, creating something that is both unlike anything else in the medium and is incredibly endearing and engaging.
In order to make your star-replacement ball of junk, you need to roll the Prince's Katamari over enough things to hit the goal set by the King – be that a size or collection goal. You use both analogue sticks to move the Katamari, with almost tank-like controls that take some time to get used to. It's these controls that are the weakest part of Katamari Damacy REROLL, with a combined weight of control and an over-responsiveness to the analogue sticks holding them back. The camera, which is automatic and not manually controlled, is built to always stay behind the Prince's back, however, it's often a tad too slow to keep up with your movements and tends to get into annoying places when you're against walls or in the corners of areas. These are the two places where Katamari Damacy REROLL's original PlayStation 2 design frustrates, but neither are enough to destroy the magic of the game.
The real beauty of Katamari Damacy REROLL comes with the games quirky design, which encompasses the level design, interactions, music and art style. While you'll initially be collecting tiny objects early on, your Katamari quickly grows in size, resulting in some truly absurd moments, like collecting bulldogs riding surfboards or plucking skyscrapers from the ground. The best part of these moments, is that there is a steady escalation in their size and absurdity as you progress, leaving you constantly surprised and interested as you continue through the story. The reactions of living creatures are great as well, as crowds scatter and run in terror as your colourful junk orb rolls towards them. If your Katamari isn't big enough to collect them though, they will instead steadfastly ignore it as you bounce off them or gleefully chase you, causing you to lose some of your objects in any collisions that occur. I often found myself deliberately chasing things, even if I didn't need them, just to watch the chaos it would cause.
The world of Katamari Damacy REROLL, in which all of these fantastic interactions occur, has an art style that is both incredibly absorb in its variety and yet utterly cohesive in design. From the tiny to the giant, every object and living creature has a chunky nature to it that makes them easier to identify and fun to look at, and their limited animations add to the absurdist angle of everything. The game uses a massive palette of colours, eschewing the drab stylings of other games for a maelstrom of intense clashing colours that makes everything stand out, while somehow still being a cohesive overarching design. This absurd art style combines together with some wonderfully eclectic music to truly tie the whole experience together. Whether its the high energy beats of Katamari on the Rocks, the chill vibes of Cherry Blossom Color Season or the wild The Last Samba, the music in Katamari Damacy REROLL is memorable, fun to listen to, and perfectly matches the moment its used.
Overall, Katamari Damacy REROLL is an experience unlike any other, with its clashing, yet somehow cohesive, colour palette, fantastic soundtrack and engaging gameplay combining to become something I loved. While the controls and camera show their age, and are somewhat frustrating at points, they're relatively minor hiccups that don't drag the rest down. Whether you're a newcomer to the series or returning for more Katamari action, I wholeheartedly recommend Katamari Damacy REROLL.


We�ve recommended this model as our all-time favorite portable generator, and its best-in-class quietness levels make it a shoo-in for our top spot in the quiet category, too! This is a very expensive model, though, so we recommend it mainly to people who will use it frequently.
6/12/2007�� I live in Moscow and have a log cabin about 50 miles south. No communal electricity. My generator runs on petrol. Great, but noisy. I use it very sparingly so as not to disturb my neighbours.
3/07/2012�� Any Way to Make a Portable Generator Quiter? On Saturday I bought a 5.5 KW portabe generator with a 15 HP gasoline engine (Powermate brand from Home Depot) because a severe storm knocked the power out.
Purchasing a portable generator that is quiet is the best option you can do for yourself in terms of quieting a generator. I personally went ahead and purchased the EU1000i by Honda from amazon, and have had nothing but positive experiences with it thus far.


My degrees include a Ph.D. in 1995 from the University of Northern Colorado in School Psychology; two Masters Degrees in 1986 & 1979 from the University of New Mexico in Counseling and Special Education, respectively. I am a Licensed Psychologist in the State of Colorado since January 1998. My Colorado License Number is 2223.
I am currently working in Private Practice since 1996. I have previously worked in the schools as a School Psychologist, and prior to that as a Teacher (all levels K-college).

The introduction of new area codes is the result of decisions by the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC).
The growing demand for communications services has increased the requirement for phone numbers in several regions across Canada.
When phone numbers start to run out in certain areas, new area codes are created to meet demand. Adding a new area code enables more than seven million new phone numbers to be created!
Introducing a new area code within a region already served by another code creates only minor changes. Adding an area code using the overlay method does not cause any numbers to change for existing customers. And, local calling areas also remain the same.
Only new telephone lines are affected by this addition
Existing numbers keep the same area code and are not changed in any way
Local calling areas remain the same
The 9-1-1 emergency number remains a three-digit number throughout the area
For your local calls, you will always enter 10 digits (area code + local number)
New area codes have been successfully introduced in Canada to manage a growing shortage of telephone numbers. Other new area codes will be introduced in the upcoming years Click here for the Canadian area code map

Odisha remembers former president Pranab Mukherjee on his demise
August 31, 2020 By Ashis Senapati Leave a Comment
Bhubaneswar, August 31 (LocalWire): After a 21-day prolonged battle with illness and COVID-19, former President Pranab Mukherjee today passed away in R R Hospital, New Delhi.
Abhijit Mukherjee informed of his father's unfortunate passing away on social media.
Condolences have been pouring in for the late President from all quarters of Odisha.
"The passing away of Shri Pranab Mukherjee is a great loss for the nation. I remember, he had a great contribution in the development of Bolangir and KBK region.
When he was the Deputy Chairman of the Planning Commission, three projects (Khordha-Bolangir railway line, Lower Indra and Lower Suktel irrigation projects) were included in the 8th Five Year Plan," said former Congress MP from Bolangir, Sarat Patnaik.
Reports have also come in from Kendrapara about people mourning the death of the Bharat Ratna recipient.
"The news of his death came as a shock to us.
Pranab da visited our village a few days after the Super Cyclone of 1999, and provided us with relief material and all possible help," said Bijay Shukla, the former Sarpanch of the Ramnagar Gram Panchayat in Kendrapara.
"I have fond memories of the time when Pranab Babu visited many villages on my motorcycle after the '99 cyclone.
My wife had cooked fish curry and rice for Pranab Babu and he shared coconut water with me. He will forever remain in our hearts," said Tarunkanti Kanjilal of Ramnagar.
When Pranab visited Odisha in 2013, he did not forget to invite Tarunkanti Kanjilal to meet him at Raj Bhawan in Bhubaneswar.
"Pranab babu embraced me and enquired about my wife and children.
I became a kind of celebrity in my village after meeting the President of India. His death is a personal loss for me," Kanjilal added.
Meanwhile, PM Narendra Modi, CM Naveen Patnaik, Union Ministers Dharmendra Pradhan and Pratap Sarangi, OPCC chief Niranjan Patnaik too condoled the death of the former president.
"Pranab Da was a prolific reader, powerful orator, scholar, and had unparalleled experience in governance.
He will always be remembered for his exceptional ability to forge consensus on national issues," tweeted the CM.

The idea to put together the 'Christian' family history first took shape around 1992 when Diana Pick, my stepmother-in-law on a visit home to the UK from New Zealand, made the suggestion that it could prove an interesting undertaking. I think her curiosity was piqued by my telling her the family story of possible French descent and, like many other people, her assumption that in some way we were connected to Fletcher Christian of Mutiny on the Bounty fame. A keen amateur genealogist herself, she offered to research through the Morman [sic]church records she used when she got back to New Zealand. No on-line research in those days.
The story of a possible French connection in the Christian family was first told to me by grannie. (As a point of reference, grannie is Catherine Allan Christian, and grandpa is her husband Arnold Louis Christian. I will mention them as grannie and grandpa throughout any narrative). Grannie told me that the handed down story suggested that the Christians had French blood through an ancestor who had been, it was believed, a second secretary at the British embassy in Paris sometime in the C19th, and had married a French women [sic] but no-one knew who, where or when. This was the explanation for why the name Francis and Frances often seemed to appear as Christian family names ie; grandpa's sister Vera had the middle name Frances, their brother Norman, father Vincent and Uncle Victor had all had Francis as a middle name and, as it turned out, that was their grandfather's anglicised name too.
Grannie also told how her mother-in-law, Gertrude Louisa Christian, (nee Barley), would claim that 'we are descended from Italian and French royalty!' Quite who she meant by 'we' wasn't clear – was it we the Christians, (which wouldn't apply to her), or was she referring to the Barley's from she descended?
I first began to wonder if there was some validity to the tales when I stayed for a few days as an adult visitor with Gt. Aunt Vera whose home in North Wales stood on the farm owned by her daughter Audrey. On the dining room mantelpiece stood two brass ornaments. One of these was a small table bell but in the form of a women [sic] wearing a crinoline dress, (the bell), and around the base of which was the French inscription 'Vive la empress'. The second ornament was the uniformed figure of a man with the inscription "Vive le Emperor'. (I later found out that these were of the French Emperor Napoleon III (the last French monarch – died 1873 and his wife the Empress Eugenie). I asked Aunt Vera where these had come from and she said her parents. She also mentioned French blood but wasn't sure from where precisely. The ornaments were still there on subsequent visits I made during the time I was stationed in the RAF at Valley, Anglesey in the mid 1970's.
Much of the family 'knowledge' that I have, such as it is, I have by word of mouth from grannie which also includes here own Cordner and Barrass families, as well as the Barleys who were grandpa's maternal antecedents. The Povey's – other than grandpa's grandmother, Emma, who had this surname before her marriage to James Barley – did not enter the picture until much later in the research.
In addition to receiving much information from the endless questions I asked of grannie over the years, both as a child and as an adult, I had the opportunity on some occasions to gain information from others in the family. While at school I used to write quite regularly to my Great, Great Aunt Molly, (originally a Cordner), and as mentioned earlier visited Gt Aunt Vera & Cousin Audrey a number of times. Through Audrey I was able to write to grandpa's younger brother Norman, who Gilly and I subsequently visited once at his home in Leeds. Second to grannie, Audrey was a big source of information, albeit sketchy, and of photographs. The wedding photographs here of grannie and grandpa's wedding came from Aunt Vera's album, (Audrey was the bridesmaid). Many years later grannie also put me in touch with her niece, Christine Molly, (nee Cordner), who was researching the Cordner & Barrass families. We have met a few times and now correspond quite regularly. It is Christine we have to thank for the Cordner and Barrass family trees. As part of my research, inspired by Diana Pick, Gilly and I spent a few days with Audrey in 1994. Here we were able to see a large album of postcards, sent to and from the family. The postcards mainly covered the first three decades of the C20th, and gave vital clues as to names, addresses and dates of residence – all by postmarks. Additionally, Audrey showed us around the local area – Ruthin & Birkenhead – where grandpa grew up. This included Ruthin school where he and brother Norman were educated, the public houses run by his mother Gertrude and possibly his father Vincent too, and
the home in Birkenhead – 4 Devonshire Road – from where the family ran the Birkenhead Motor Works and later Bolton's Grey Cabs.
As previously mentioned, the most informative source of information at the personal level was grannie. As children we often lived within an hour or two of her home in Oxford and, consequently, we saw quite a lot of grannie and auntie June. Later, and now in the RAF myself, I was fortunate to have two consecutive postings over an eight year period within two hours of grannie, and a further three year posting at only forty five minutes away and was able to make many visits to her.
As a young boy I had been fascinated by grandpa's RAF story and, as usual, always wanting to hear it again. Grannie was bombarded with many questions but never resented them. I think she knew the interest was deep and genuine and she seemed happy to answer them. Later, when I was an older child, she went through the photographs she had of her and grandpa's life and his RAF days – telling me of the stories and events that surrounded them.
As a fifteen year old schoolboy I spent a few days with grannie during a half-term and remember a long discussion we had. I asked her many questions, mainly about grandpa, the war years and life afterwards which may have brought back many memories for her, some of which may have been upsetting. However, she did not seem to be so and was happy, as always, to answer those questions.
When beginning the research into the Christian family the first decision was where to start. The obvious place was with grandpa's father, Vincent Francis, (known as Pom-Pom within the family although the reason remains a mystery), but even here there was little to go on. No-one seemed to know who is [sic] parents had been or where they had lived, or their occupation. It appears that from the 1930's onwards, and once his children had reached adulthood, Vincent lived apart – although in occasional contact – from his family. From this point knowledge of his movements and employments is particularly sparse. Grannie told me that from the time she married grandpa in 1932 until Vincent's death in 1964, she had only met him on about four occasions. She did say that he was always a smartly dressed, well-spoken and upright gentleman, but one not much given to talking. By 1994 he, his wife Gertrude and two of his children, Vera and grandpa, were dead. Norman's whereabouts, or if even alive were not known by grannie although she did know that Vincent had been cared for, towards and at the end of his life, by his daughter Vera, and although she too was now dead her daughter Audrey was the most likely source for any further information. This was when Gilly & went to see Audrey and were able to see & make notes from the postcards she held and previously mentioned. Many of these – the major form of short communication in the early C20th – were written by Vincent when on his travels as a commercial traveler. [sic] However, even Audrey was unable to throw much light onto Vincent's life or earlier family, but she knew that his son Norman was still alive and living in Leeds. It was from Audrey that we received his address and was subsequently able to write and visit him. In compiling this 'history', I have constantly been amazed at how little closely related individuals knew of each other, but then I am judging it from the perspective of a modern world with many varied and instant communication methods. In fairness, in the more deferential, perhaps respectful and less connected world that existed before WW2, privacy was expected and less exposed. Aunty June readily admits that I have more information about her father, grandpa Arnold, than she does herself, and this was also true of my father Brian, and yet the source of my information was their mother, grannie! We were still no further forward with where Vincent came from and a search at the National Records Office yielded nothing further. In 1995 I corresponded with Gt. Uncle Norman but little of substance came of these letters, (in this archive). I followed this up with a visit to Norman, the first and last time I ever met him, but his knowledge of Vincent was as sketchy as the rest and so nothing new was revealed.
In the meantime, Diana Pick in New Zealand was plodding away on my behalf with searches where possible and every so often would write with information which she felt could be a 'lead'. Usually though, while one or two names might fit, the dates and locations wouldn't, or vice versa, and the lead would have to be discarded. In 2004 Diana telephone to say that she thought she had finally found Vincent's family, and that they came from Switzerland. My father Brian was quite taken with the idea of being of Swiss descent, but had said previously that he would rather not be of French or Italian extraction. Needless to say, the Swiss connection when the papers finally arrived proved to be another blind alley. In 2006 not long after Brian's death, Diana again telephoned to say that this time she really had found Vincent's parents & siblings, and that the evidence was incontrovertible. And so, upon arrival, it proved to be. There was Vincent's birth & marriage certificates, and those for each of his siblings bar one. The dates, locations and names all matched the known but patchy information already held. The documentation itself gave two further steps forward the first of which was more information that could be explored – previously unknown names, addresses, occupations etc from birth or
marriage certificates, but the second was the proof that there was French ancestry – Vincent's mother was French, (Eualalia Bons), Vincent was half French! More than that, his father was Italian, (Francesco Cristini). There it was on the paper, Brian's jesting dread, he was of both French and Italian descent, and relatively closely so too. The claims of Gertrude proved to be founded, in fact. Something I have learned, at that point and since, is that usually family stories have some basis in truth – it's just that with the passing between generations they become distorted.
It is interesting to note from the documents available that the names Cristini and Christian were interchanged before they finally settled into the anglicised version of Christian. As the family of Francesco and Eulalia became more integrated into British life and had their children it will have become more necessary that the name reflected the English version, particularly perhaps for Vincent and his older brother Victor, who would have to enter the wider society of employment after school and would therefore probably find it much easier to be a Christian than a Cristini. Interestingly, their sister Beatrice seems to have retained Cristini right through to her marriage and maybe that was the standard of the time – it would have been less important for a girl to have an anglicised name since she was far more likely to go from the home of her parents to her new husband's home. First names too became anglicised, Francesco becoming Francis – another mystery solved – why so many holders of the name Francis or Frances in the family!
Having 'found' Vincent in verifiable documentation, we also found his father so what of Francesco or Francis? It is believed from the documentation held that he and Eulalia probably arrived in England around 1868/69. In the 1881 census, both he and Eulalia were shown as being born in C1845 which would put them in their early twenties. From the death certificate of their second child, Alfred, Francis' profession was 'book-keeper.' As we follow him through subsequent births and marriages we see that he progresses to 'teacher of languages' and 'professor of languages'. Italy, at the time of Francis' birth was not a state as Britain was, but comprised of small principalities and dukedoms which had a huge agricultural peasant base. One therefore wonders at his education and societal level. He must have been numerate to be able to book keep, and literate too. He could obviously speak, (and teach), more than one language. He obviously also travelled from Italy, through France at least, to England and married along the way. To do this, and to have the level of education he appeared to have, assumes that he came from a reasonably affluent family. Francis died sometime between the marriage of his daughter in 1902 and of his eldest son, Victor, in 1906. Where he was living at the time is, as yet, un-researched. Of his wife, Eulalia, nothing beyond the probable year of birth, her nationality and her maiden name of Bons, is known or researched. She had the ability though to make the registration in 1872 of the death of her son Alfred.
The real 'Christian' family history therefore begins, most significantly, with the children of Francis and Eulalia and for me, my siblings and cousins, with their fourth child and second son, our Great Grandfather, Vincent Francis Christian – born Cristini.

The Importance Of Land Tenure And Secure Property Rights.
Leave a Comment	/ Opinion, TOP NEWS / By GERALD NCUBE
651 Shares Share on Facebook Share on Twitter
(Last Updated on April 10, 2021 by GERALD NCUBE)
Two historical notes confirm the above statement:
In the world today only 18 per cent of all agricultural land is privately owned under freehold title. Yet this small area produces over 80 per cent of all world food and other agricultural output products; and
In the former Soviet Union where all agricultural land was State owned and organised into large State controlled farms, the 3 per cent of the land allocated to family plots – in urban and peri urban areas, and this tiny area produced 70 per cent of all the food needs of the people.
The productivity of land held under private, freehold ownership is indisputable.
The question is why? Under freehold land tenure two major influences are enabled:
It gives the owner a sense of ownership and this carries with it a sense of responsibility. It also takes on the character of a privately owned asset that can be developed, preserved and protected for future generations. This encourages the re-investment of any surplus revenues in capital development and land improvement; and
It gives the land value which can be used as collateral for bank borrowings to facilitate production and investment in land and buildings and fixed assets such as fencing, dams and other forms of immovable asset, all essential to productivity.
All societies in the world started out with land as a "common good", this evolved most often into a Feudal system of land tenure where Chiefs, Feudal Barons and Kings and other institutions of community leadership, assumed control over land and the people who occupied it were "serfs", "slaves" and simply peasants or villagers. This served as a means of deriving income or tribute and political power. This was the case in Britain and most of Europe before the Reformation and its associated legal reforms (the Enclosure Acts in the UK). Often recruitment for regional armies was made from the men who were working as serfs within these feudal structures. The massive homes and castles of Europe all bear testimony to the exploitive nature of these sorts of societies.
In Africa, land was always a common good, livestock owners ranged their animals over vast areas of land following water and grazing, Tribes with an agricultural tradition followed a slash and burn culture. Permanent housing was rare and when the land they were using became exhausted and unproductive, they simply abandoned their villages and moved.
Colonial settlement changed all of that and in those countries of Africa which had a significant presence of foreign nationals who took up citizenship and residence, they also introduced the rule of law and with it the concept of title to the land. Fences went up and fixed, commercial utilisation of land for the purpose of establishing urban industry and commerce as well as housing became common. Farms were established and countries like Kenya, Zambia, Zimbabwe and South Africa and Namibia all brought a substantial proportion of the land available under free hold title. Ownership was often on a colonial basis with indigenous people being confined to areas where the land was held under feudal management by tribal Kings, Chiefs and Headmen.
Exactly the same situation applied in Canada, the USA and Australia where the indigenous populations were, and continue to be, confined to tribal areas controlled by traditional leadership and often held under systems that regard land as a "common good" owned by the tribe.
Any review of the state of these areas that continue to be held and managed under these systems will reveal that they, almost universally, remain distinct, poor and degraded with low levels of productivity and high levels of poverty. It's not a racial issue, it's not a cultural issue, it is simply a fact that such system cannot generate and hold value. When I was in Glasgow some 30 years ago I was taken to see a housing scheme for the homeless and the poorer members of that society. It was three years old and was already in a disastrous state – in a few years it had to be destroyed as being uninhabitable.
In India some years later I visited a housing scheme on 2500 hectares of land in the Capital city sponsored by an international NGO called Opportunity International. There a community of squatters who had subsisted in shacks and under plastic for 23 years had each been allocated just 50 square metres of land freehold plus a loan of US$500 interest free. You might argue, what can anyone do with that? But what I saw was a community in three storey homes, schools, clinics, industry and roads and other infrastructure and 98 per cent of the original loans repaid. What made it work – security of title.
Closer to home, in South Africa the Government has developed millions of small homes under what they called the Reconstruction and Development Program. They have not allowed the occupants to buy the homes which are leased to their occupants – often on a basis that forces them to support the Party in Government. 40 per cent of those homes today are uninhabitable, when you drive through those areas you see no signs of home improvements, no gardens, no walls – just a different form of slum with the State as the Landlord.
In Zimbabwe, at Independence, we took over a land system that provided 16 million hectares of agricultural land to largely white farmers of settler stock. 16 million hectares of land to the indigenous population that still had rural roots. After 40 years of Independence about 4 million hectares remain under freehold title but the rest is now "state" land. This change was effected by a land reform program designed to give the indigenous population control of the land and some compensation to the former farmers has now been agreed.
The question is what to do with what has been taken over? The Tribal Areas remain impoverished and its people desperately poor, with nearly 10 million hectares of land severely damaged and threatened with desertification. The former commercial farming Districts are in the majority abandoned and unproductive with farm output down 70 per cent except for tobacco which has been supported by the international tobacco companies.
In urban areas several hundred former farms have been used to provide land for urban housing. All such homes have been built with private money, much of it from the Diaspora who dream of one-day returning home. I estimate that 1,4 million homes have either been built or are under construction here. In the past year we have sold 4 million tonnes of cement for construction purposes in a country that has not seen a construction crane in operation for 20 years.
If we gave these urban home owners, title to the land they occupy, it would create capital stock in the hands of our own people of probably near US$100 billion in assets. Half of which is bankable.
If we did the same thing with the 180 000 new farmers who occupy the land previously owned and occupied by the previous generation of farmers here, it would put real capital into the hand of all these families, much of which could be used as collateral to pay for costs and development of the land. It would bring billions of dollars of dead capital into life with a direct impact on poverty, opportunity and growth across the whole nation. It would cost the Government nothing, the stroke of a pen.
In the Tribal areas we have to give the Villages that make up our rural population and where the majority of our people call home, some sort of security over these village areas and to give them control and management of these areas.
It's what everyone wants to happen, it would transform this country in the blink of an eye. It would transfer real wealth that is completely untapped, to our own people. Why don't we do it?

Two historical notes confirm the above statement: In the world today only 18 per cent of all agricultural land is privately owned under freehold title. Yet this small area produces over 80 per cent of all world food and other agricultural output products; ...

EBLEX Cattle Weekly - 15 August 2014
Positive movement in trade again
In week ended 9 August, the deadweight cattle trade moved up again. With average prices in almost all categories of prime cattle strengthening, the all prime average was up 2p on the week at 328.8p/kg. Following a few weeks of stability, this movement represents the second consecutive week that the trade has demonstrated some positivity.
AHDB/EBLEX estimates indicate that fewer cattle were marketed compared with the week before. This contributed to a more competitive trading environment which has obviously resulted in stronger prices. Reports suggest that the better trading conditions were of particular benefit to cattle previously penalised for being outside of supermarket specification. Supporting this, and with around 600 head fewer forward, young bull prices strengthened to the greatest extent. R3 young bulls increased 4p on the week to 316.2p/kg.
While this position is better news for producers, it should be noted that Irish cattle supplies are still robust. While there was a two-week period of lower supplies, Irish cattle slaughterings have started to track ahead of yearearlier levels once again. This may continue, at least in the short term, as the flow of grass-fed cattle increases. This comes as producers attempt to avoid any penalties by finishing the increased number of cattle born in spring 2012 within the 30-month age threshold.
Trade figures paint a better picture for exports
UK trade data for June has been published by HMRC and incudes some revisions to previous data. Having originally been reported as showing a decline compared with a year ago, a significant upwards revision to export data for May means that volumes are now recorded as being 14% higher year on year. HMRC report that in June, the UK exported 9,660 tonnes of fresh and frozen beef, up 20% compared with last year. Increased shipments of fresh/ chilled carcases to the Netherlands largely drove the trade. However, cuts to France also performed very well.
A 9% fall in the unit value was more than offset by increased volumes and, as such, the export trade was worth £33.4 million in the month, up 9% year on year.
The offal trade is also reported to have performed very well, with shipments to all the major destinations higher. Overall volumes were up two-thirds on the year to over 3,500 tonnes. While average values to some destinations were lower than a year ago, there was a greater than 50% rise in the unit value of shipments to Hong Kong. This helped the value of the offal trade to increase by over 70% on the year, to £4.9 million.

World Sleep Day: Sleep and its role in fitness!
We all know the many physical and health benefits sleep can have on the body, but how about its effects on fitness? Where does sleep tie in there?
As standard, we should all aim for 7.5 to 9 hours sleep per night, however, for some that just isn't possible. We get it, life gets in the way!
Athletes or those with higher energy expenditure (more active in the day) will need more sleep than normal, the same way you would need more calories when exercising. You're burning more, therefore you replace more.
During your sleep, you're repairing and recovering from any damage caused by stress and exertion built up throughout the day.
If your sleep is suffering then so will your energy levels, which will only increase or worsen if you don't allow your body the rest it needs.
But why does our energy suffer? One word, glycogen!
Glycogen being glucose from food that is stored in animals and converted to energy when needed goes hand-in-hand with sleep. Therefore not enough sleep will result in less glycogen, therefore, less energy!.
Sleep deprivation will lead to the release of cortisol on the body, a stress hormone. The increase in cortisol will lead to lower growth hormone levels affecting repair and recovery in the body making you more prone to injury.
A great way to monitor and log your sleep is using an app such as Sleep Cycle. With Sleep Cycle you have the ability to monitor trends in sleep quality, average time asleep, the time you go to bed and so much more.
This is something that I have been using for over two years now and recommend to all my clients. Why? It's simple, nailing sleep means improving recovery!
Below is an overview of my sleep quality and average time going to bed over the past 6 months using Sleep Cycle. (Yes, I'm a late sleeper. I'm working on it!).
All sports require a form of alertness, a lack of sleep will have a play on effect with your ability to make accurate split-second decisions, which can have a serious impact on performance!
Just like your body, your brain needs re-charging also. Don't run yourself into the ground.
So how can I improve the quality of my sleep?!
A few tips I have learnt and adapted is using an app called F.lux on my Mac. This adjusts the colour of your display according to your location and time of day, replicating the room you're in.
F.lux prevents blue light on your screen which has been shown to have a negative effect on sleep.
Also turning off all screens or devices 30minutes – 1hour before sleep and keeping the room dark. Similar to F.lux this will help prevent blue light absorbed helping you to relax.
Having a warm shower/bath an hour before going to bed. This helps relax the muscles and puts you into a comfortable state, making it easier to sleep and drift off.
This may be an obvious one to some, but the temperature of your room can have a large impact on your sleep. Research has shown the ideal room temperature to be 15-20 degrees Celsius.
If you're a late lifter, try to avoid caffeine based stimulants. Caffeine can remain active in your system up to 6 hours after being consumed.
Before you go ahead and make drastic changes to your sleep routine, work on one thing at a time. Slowly implement blue light blocking an hour before bed. Maybe start off with 30minutes before, then after two weeks increase that to 1 hour before.
The same way you would approach progressive overload within an individuals training program, one thing at a time.
