2003 WHC Mission Report; Stonehenge, Avebury and Associated Sites; June 2003
WHC:
A report has been received from the State Party on 31 January 2003 underlining that an archaeological condition survey of the Stonehenge part of the World Heritage site is underway and will shortly be completed. This will complement the existing condition survey for Avebury. The launch of a Special Countryside Stewardship Scheme for Stonehenge and Avebury was a major success for the World Heritage site in 2002. Funded by the European Union, this grant scheme encourages farmers to convert arable fields to pasture. This will remove from cultivation some important archaeological sites, enhance the landscape setting of Stonehenge and enhance the ecological value of the World Heritage site. The Scheme is managed by the UK Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA).
Concerning the Stonehenge Project, the State Party has been working with key stakeholders to improve the setting and conservation of the Stonehenge part of the World Heritage site in accordance with the policies contained in the World Heritage site Management Plan through the development and implementation of the Stonehenge Project. The Committee has supported the general approach adopted to deal with the problems of the site. In 2000, ICOMOS confirmed that they were in full agreement with the proposals for a 2 km cut-and-cover tunnel. Since the last report to the Bureau, work has continued on the development of the scheme designs for the roads and for the visitor centre. Work includes full environmental impact assessments.
In 2002, a full appraisal of the options for the length and method of constructing the tunnel was undertaken. On the basis of this appraisal, Ministers decided that their preferred option was for a 2.1 km bored tunnel rather than the previously proposed 2 km cut-and-cover tunnel. This longer tunnel using less intrusive construction techniques will minimize the impact of the road scheme on the World Heritage site. The estimated cost of the longer bored tunnel is £183m (US$ 298m), some £30m (US$ 49m) more than the original 2 km cut-and-cover tunnel. Ministers concluded that the 2.1 km tunnel met the requirements of the World Heritage site Management Plan.
Progress continues on the development of the scheme for the new visitor centre in close collaboration with the National Trust, the charitable organization that owns nearly half of the Stonehenge World Heritage site landscape. The scheme is now expected to cost £ 57m (US$ 93m). So far, the Department for Culture Media and Sport has committed £ 13m (US$ 21m) and the Heritage Lottery Fund £25m (US$41m). Remaining funding will come from English Heritage's core budget and a substantial fundraising campaign. It is now expected that the formal consent procedures for both the road scheme and the visitor centre will begin in late spring 2003. These will provide additional information on the environmental impact of the proposals, which will allow full assessment of the projects to be made before decisions are taken on whether or not consent should be granted.
Concerning Silbury Hill, Avebury, the report mentioned that English Heritage is continuing to make progress in ensuring the long-term conservation of Silbury Hill, an important part of the Avebury portion of this World Heritage site. Following the stabilisation work undertaken in 2001, a geophysical survey of the whole Hill was carried out by Skanska Cementation, on behalf of English Heritage. The results indicated that the Hill is a robust structure, basically stable, although some areas were identified for further investigation. An area on the northern flank of the Hill considered potentially unstable, was evaluated as being stable after detailed seismic survey work, coring and ground investigation during 2002. English Heritage is now planning to investigate the area of the previously collapsed shaft by drilling two small cores or boreholes in the area. The information gathered will help us design long-term remedial work. The cores are due to be sunk during March 2003 and fieldwork will be completed by the end of March. After that, English Heritage will assess the results, and may or may not, depending on the results, design a programme of remedial works to the Hill in order to ensure its long-term conservation.
ICOMOS:
Following the 24th session of the World Heritage Committee in December 2000, ICOMOS received additional information concerning the different options for the tunnel project. This information has caused ICOMOS to modify its point of view on the initial solution of the State Party (2km cut-and-cover tunnel). It has adopted a position in favour of the longer tunnel project (4.5km) and welcomes that the State Party has opted for a bored tunnel solution. It considered such a solution to correspond best to the aim of protecting the exceptional value of the Stonehenge landscape.
Stonehenge, Avebury and Associated Sites (United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland)
The World Heritage Committee [48],
1. Taking note of the changes made to the construction technique for the tunnel,;
2. Welcomes the State Party's decision to construct a bored tunnel, which is less damaging for the Stonehenge, Avebury and Associated Sites World Heritage property than a cut-and-cover tunnel;

Our cheese- and beer-lover's potato soup has only a fraction of the fat and sodium of a traditional recipe. We use low-fat milk and only a little oil and keep the flavor strong with zesty, sharp Cheddar cheese. Precooked diced potatoes, which you can get at many supermarkets, keep this recipe super speedy. Regular diced red potatoes also work—you'll just need to increase the cooking time.
Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add beer; bring to a boil and boil for 5 minutes. Add potatoes, broth and water; cover and return to a boil. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer, and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and mash the potatoes with a potato masher to the desired consistency.
Whisk milk and flour and add to the soup. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat and cook, whisking occasionally, until thickened, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat; stir in 1¼ cups Cheddar and stir until melted. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with the remaining ¼ cup cheese and bell pepper.
Ingredient note: Look for precooked diced potatoes in the refrigerated section of most supermarket produce departments—near other fresh, prepared vegetables. To make your own, peel 2¼ pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into ½-inch pieces and boil until tender (about 15 minutes).
Flavorless I was very disappointed by this soup. I wish I had read the previous reviews prior to making it. We couldn't taste the beer at all, and the soup had almost no flavor. I added a multitude of spices to make it edible.
Blah soup Did not like this soup at all. Couldn't taste anything but bland potatoes even though I added extra ingredients and doctored it up as best I could with other seasonings it was still blah. Don't recommend or will ever make this again.
Very bland Didn't taste cheese or beer when prepared as directed; had to doctor it up substantially with seasonings and Worcestershire; let it cook down until thicker to concentrate flavor and then added more beer; turned out to be edible, but would not make it again.
love this recipe! I have so many potatoes in my root cellar, and needed to use up some milk, so I made this over the weekend. I love this recipe! Leftovers were great too.
Making this soup only using the recipe is bland. However adding cayenne pepper kicks it up several notches. I also add more cheddar maybe a full 2 cups, i never measure, guesstimate. Bags of pre-cooked pots sound gross to me so I use only Yukon gold approx. half a 5 lb. bag. Puree this soup makes it quite boring, leaving some soft potato chucks in it makes for variety. I also found adding chopped carrots, celery and onions was a nice touch. I have made this soup many many times; using the recipe exactly how it is is a great base and adding to it make this soup even better!!
We always add a few splashes of malt vinegar to our potato soup at serving. Based on some of the comments, I'm thinking that might perk up this soup as well.


November 30, 2018 (KHARTOUM) - Sudan's Humanitarian Aid Commission (HAC) said it has extended for 6 months the humanitarian corridor to deliver assistance to South Sudan.
HAC commissioner in the White Nile State Abdel-Gawi Hamid said 18 humanitarian aid caravans have been dispatched to the border town of Al-Rank, saying the aid corridor has been extended for further 6 months.
He said the caravans include 24 trucks carrying 20,000 sacks of sorghum (1000 tons), saying it has been dispatched from the White Nile's city of Kosti to Al-Rank.
Hamid pointed out that the World Food Programme (WFP) and the aid groups have made arrangements to dispatch further humanitarian assistance to South Sudan during the next period.

Trombone Shorty's new album opens with a dirge, but if you think the beloved bandleader, singer, songwriter and horn-blower born Troy Andrews came here to mourn, you got it all wrong. That bit of beautiful New Orleans soul —"Laveau Dirge No. 1," named after one of the city's most famous voodoo queens — shows off our host's roots before "Parking Lot Symphony" branches out wildly, wonderfully, funkily across 12 diverse cuts. True to its title, this album contains multitudes of sound — from brass band blare and deep-groove funk, to bluesy beauty and hip-hop/pop swagger — and plenty of emotion all anchored, of course, by stellar playing and the idea that, even in the toughest of times, as Andrews says, "Music brings unity."
In the last four years, Andrews banked his fifth White House gig; backed Macklemore and Madonna at the Grammys; played on albums by She & Him, Zac Brown, Dierks Bentley, and Mark Ronson; opened tours for Daryl Hall & John Oates and Red Hot Chili Peppers; appeared in Foo Fighters' Sonic Highways documentary series; voiced the iconic sound of the adult characters in The Peanuts Movie; inherited the esteemed annual fest-closing set at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival in the tradition of Crescent City greats like the Neville Brothers and Professor Longhair; and released "Trombone Shorty," a children's book about his life that was named a Caldecott Honor Book in 2016.
Adding to that legacy, his Blue Note Records debut "Parking Lot Symphony" finds Andrews teamed with Grammy-nominated producer Chris Seefried (Andra Day, Fitz and the Tantrums) and an unexpected array of cowriters and players including members of Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros, The Meters, Better Than Ezra, and Dumpstaphunk.

Comprising of 12 or more performers including a horn section, strings, keyboardists, percussionists, background vocalists and an incredible rock rhythm section, The Summer of Love Concert recreates "note for note and absolutely live" the songs and the psychedelically flavored spirit of the Woodstock Generation. The songs run the gammet from the psychedelic songs to rockin' album tracks to a sprinkling of now hip Top 40 pop from that era.

The Joey Alexander Trio
Time: 7:30-9:30PM
Born on June 25, 2003 on the island of Bali, pianist Joey Alexaner originally learned about jazz from his dad, who exposed his son to a variety of classic albums from his extensive collection. At the age of 6, Joey began teaching himself to play piano using a mini electronic keyboard given to him by his father. His musicianship and grasp of jazz fundamentals developed at a remarkable pace, and at age 8 UNESCO invited him to play solo piano for an elated Herbie Hancock during the piano great's visit to Indonesia. At 9, he won the grand prize at the first Master-Jam Fest, an all-ages competition in Ukraine which included 200 competitors from 17 countries. By 10, he was performing at jazz festivals in both Jakarta and Copenhagen. An invitation from Wynton Marsalis led to his U.S. debut appearance at Jazz at Lincoln Center's Rose Hall in 2014 where he amazed the audience with his musicality, followed by appearances before the Jazz Foundation of America at the Apollo and the Arthur Ashe Learning Center at Gotham Hall. Wishing to encourage the continued development of Joey's prodigious playing, his parents sold the family business in Jakarta and relocated to the United States.
Joey experienced a major stroke of luck when he received an invitation from impresario George Wein to perform on two stages at the prestigious Newport Jazz Festival. Over the past two years Joey has been paying his dues and honing his craft: learning what it means to be a bandleader, keeping material fresh after repeated performances, and seeking out sidemen who are also collaborators. Along the way, The Joey Alexander Trio has performed at well-known venues and major festivals across the United States and around the globe.
His 2015 debut album for "Motéma Music, My Favorite Things," garnered two Grammy Award nominations for Best Jazz Instrumental Album and Best Improvised Solo for his performance of John Coltrane's "Giant Steps," making him the youngest jazz artist ever nominated for a Grammy. His performances on the 58th Annual Grammy Awards broadcast received standing ovations from the star-studded audience, bringing his talent to the attention of music lovers everywhere, mesmerizing long-time industry professionals, and inspiring other young musicians to pursue their own dreams.
His sophomore album "Countdown" showcased Joey's remarkable development as a contemporary jazz bandleader and promise as a composer. Now, as he enters his teen years, Joey takes another step in charting his artistic direction with the release of "Countdown." Building upon the swing and improvisational style that made his first project a critical and popular success, "Countdown" is a reflection of the growth and maturity of Joey Alexander as an artist, and a confident next step toward a limitless future.

OAKLAND, Calif. — Even by the standards of the Bay Area, where sourcing local, organic chicken feed is seen as something of a political act, the spectacle of 30,000 fruit and nut trees being tended by formerly incarcerated orchardists is novel.
The green thumbs are there because of Planting Justice, a nine-year-old nonprofit that combines urban farming with environmental education and jobs for ex-offenders. From its headquarters in a pair of salvaged shipping containers on a dead-end street in East Oakland, Calif., Planting Justice has forged a trail in which revenue-generating businesses help subsidize the group's core mission: hiring former inmates, many from nearby San Quentin State Prison, and giving them a "family sustaining" wage, along with health benefits and a month of paid leave annually. About half the total staff of 30 have served time in prison.
Two years ago, the group's founders — Gavin Raders, 35, and Haleh Zandi, 34 — established an orchard on a weedy, vacant lot in this area of stubborn poverty, where the pruning is serenaded not by birds but droning trucks from the adjacent freeway. Planting Justice's Rolling River Nursery now sells and ships some 1,100 varieties of potted trees and plants — among them, 65 different kinds of pomegranates, 60 varieties of figs, and loads of harder-to-find species such as jujubes (Chinese dates), Japanese ume plums and rue, an aromatic herb used in Ethiopian coffee. Signs warn visitors that they have entered a pesticide- and soda-free zone.
Though still young, the organic orchard generates roughly $250,000 of Planting Justice's yearly $2 million operating budget. Another $250,000 comes from an edible landscaping business, in which roving horticulturalists hired by well-off clients install beehives, fruit trees, chicken coops, massive barrels for harvesting rain water and "laundry to landscaping" systems that funnel used washing machine water into the garden. The money helps subsidize pro bono edible landscapes in low-income neighborhoods.
In addition, there are the 2,000 or so "subscribers" who make monthly pledges to Planting Justice, which brings in another $450,000 annually, and grants from a variety of nonprofit organizations, among them the Kresge FreshLo program, the Thomas J. Long Foundation and Kaiser Permanente's community benefit programs.
Planting Justice cultivates metaphors along with the food. "We're composting and weeding the things in our lives we don't need and fertilizing the parts of ourselves we do need," Mr. Raders explained, sitting on a eucalyptus stump.
The guiding principle: kale, not jail.
If you know anything about the Simmons household it's this; yes, they are all talented and musically inclined, but education comes FIRST.
That's why the non-profit organization, Get Schooled, is collaborating with rapper Diggy Simmons to engage and inspire the youth to help them excel in school and imporve graduation rates.
And – speaking of graduation – guess who is about to walk across that stage?
So we had to get the details straight from Diggy about his plans after high school, why he thinks education is important, and of course, if there are any graduation parties.
We caught him right after he played Celebrity Principal for the day at Baltimore's New Era Academy with the Get Schooled foundation. Here's what he had to say.
How did the title "Principal Diggy" sound to you?
It was incredible. I don't know if they ever did anything like this but I was happy I got to be a part of it and we answered questions and we were just talking about school and the importance of education, and I'm just so happy for them. The fact that they have perfect attendance and I got to come here for that and just the fact that I can do that and I can be a part was just a real big deal for me.
What are you're favorite subjects or subject?
My favorite is English. I've always liked English. English is dope.
Yea. I like a lot of the books that I get. I just like writing – like creative writing- and that's where it lead into why I love writing music so much. I've liked history a lot too this year. I've taken a liking to it.
Another month you're graduating high school. How's that feel?
Yes, yes, yep! It's a good feeling man. I mean, just from starting school all the way up 'till now it's like I've really done it and I'm really doing it and I'm happy that I have people around me who care. And through them caring and letting me know the importance, it made me care and know the importance and that has carried into me being a young adult and wanting the best for myself.
When Jackie Lomax learned that her daughter wanted to be a dentist, she was thrilled. But soon she found the resources weren't available to help her daughter achieve her dreams. That's why Lomax started Girls 4 Science in 2009. The non-profit organization helps minority girls from the ages of 10 to 18 develop an interest in science, math, and education. It is the only all-girls science program in Chicago.
"There is a big gap in underserved communities," Lomax told ABC. "When we talk about resources, we talk about opportunity as well as the potential to see future role models." There is a persistent gender gap when it comes to careers in science, technology, engineering, and math. Women hold only 24 percent of the jobs in those fields even though they hold 50 percent of the jobs in the country, according to the Commerce Department. Women also hold a disproportionately low amount of degrees in science, technology, engineering and math, especially engineering.

Suicide deaths among older adults, reflecting the national trend among all age groups, are climbing. Older Americans residing in nursing homes, assisted living centers and adult care homes are part of this troubling trend, according to a six-month investigation by Kaiser Health News and PBS NewsHour. This raises the issue of whether facilities are engaged in nursing home neglect and abuse by failing to recognize warning signs and preventing suicide.

Whether the AUO B133EW05 V.0 display is supported by your notebook, you can find out in the maintenance manual, for example.. This some manufacturers offer directly on your website and run there all compliant displays on. However, the screen size of 33.78 cm (13.3 inches) can serve as an indication also, since these should be naturally identical.
Thus, the 13.3 inch display B133EW05 V.0 supports some Ultrabooks, which usually require very high investments. The connection to the additional hardware is via a 40 pin interface. The latter can if necessary also by dismantling the defective screen check, while ensuring their names can be checked on this.

My initial impression was that this was going to be a very different experience than our last stop at Cornerstone in Bendigo. When researching for the trip, Gentle Earth Walking sounded interesting primarily for the potential for strawbale building (something we were keen on trying) and staying in a tipi. Now that we have left, I am re-reading the entry in the WWOOFing guide about this spot, and while it describes everything that was there in a practical sense, we in no way could have been prepared for the things that actually made it such a rich visit. From the effortless hospitality of our hosts Sue and Don to the peaceful rhythms of nature on their 40 acre property, we felt welcomed as part of the family with nothing being too much trouble. From the authentic incarnation of indigenous Australian and American spirituality that they practiced to the abundance of interesting ideas and projects around the property, their sense of dedication and care for the Earth and its peoples was clear. And while we weren't expecting it to have an obvious community element, the outreach to community through creative and intelligent means made us realise that Sue and Don were dedicated to living out their beliefs and lifestyle goals as thoroughly as possible.
A feature of the stay that we quickly discovered was that Sue and Don love to tell stories. We heard a broad array of tales from their lives – learning that they were very well traveled, have had colourful and complex family lives, have experienced some amazing and unusual spiritual events, and are willing to throw themselves into any situation with vigour – all told with humour, trust and openness as if we had known them for years. Granted, at times we felt overwhelmed by the sheer volume of stories and retreated to our tipi at the end of the night with explodingly full brains, but we continually found ourselves returning and increasingly engaged in their intriguing lives. Given how many dozens of WWOOFers they've had over the years, you have to wonder how they tell these stories with enduring freshness!
Often our conversations were around their dining table which is the centre of a very full and cluttered room that houses all of Sue's office and computer, the lounge room and tv, the kitchen and pantry, dining table, and inventive clothes and pot racks made from ladders hanging from the high ceiling. In the midst of it all is a pot-bellied stove, continually roaring with flames as the weather was cold these nights (even down to -2ºC one night) while we were there. The room is jammed full as the strawbale house they live in isn't complete and they have had to pile everything into this one room until another area is ready. Mashing everything and everyone in one place meant it was a cozy place to retreat to at the end of the day, and there would always be something going on like a spirited conversation, visiting family popping in, Don bottling some ginger beer, chooks trying to run inside the back door, Sue digging through boxes to find us books on strawbale building, endless cups or tea and coffee boiling on the ancient stove or Don doing his back exercises on the floor. Part of feeling at home there as well was that they weren't at all precious about anything: there were no locks on doors, car keys always left in their old cars which we could use whenever we needed to, and nearly everything was a found object or had been reused, recycled or repaired.
The house is a very solid place filled with touches that indicate that this is a house made lovingly by hand. The bales offer amazing insulation and sound-proofing, looking great in an organic, hand-made kind of way. At about 200 square meters (2000 sq ft), it is a big place, and with the wonders of strawbale building (cheap materials and often free labour or simply less than a typical build), it only cost them about $30K. For those uninitiated with strawbale building, it offers so many advantages over brick or timber construction (cheaper to build, less labour, superior insulation, superior fireproofness, longevity), it's a wonder why more houses aren't built this way. Sue and Don have clearly been educating and enticing locals as well, as they are directly responsible for teaching or helping 50 buildings be built in the Daylesford area.
My dreams of building such a home were only increasing in intensity as we began seeing all the potential of the various strawbale projects around the property. And sure enough, they put us to work on a wall that had been half-sealed and needed rendering and repair. We spent the better part of a week working on the wall and it was fantastic getting our hands dirty learning about the craft. Both Heidi and I really appreciated doing the work and didn't get tired of the labour; there's something invigorating about working on a project like this, particularly if you are typically used to sitting in front of a computer all day like we are.
A unique part of this experience was staying in a Native American-styled tipi which was as genuine as the original ones found in North America. Ours was a 16 foot style (base diameter, about 5 meters) and about 30 foot high (10 meters) at the peak. The cool thing about a tipi is that, like the original ones, you have a fire pit within. Special wind-control flaps on the outside plus an inner sleeve help control air flow so smoke from the fire is drawn up and out the top of the tipi. We had mixed luck with keeping the tipi from becoming choked with smoke, but when we did get it to work it was a great way to warm it up. And warmth we needed as we happened to hit frigid temps a few nights! I was a bit over the tipi experience by the end mainly because of Kito who was never at ease there and had worked out ways to escape the tipi which was a problem if we were off working. So poor Kito was stuck lashed to a pole with his leash inside the tipi and I felt either bad for him or annoyed as he tried so hard to make life difficult for both of us!
At the end of all the work and life on the property there was Sue and Don, two very interesting, inspiring, slightly eccentric (but wonderfully so!), gracious, trusting, open and hospitable folks. We particularly found Don to be a rare wise soul, someone who projects a feeling of goodwill and joy whenever you speak with him. Nothing is too much trouble for Don and he will embrace the opportunity to discuss a situation or have a laugh. We undoubtably asked too many questions as Heidi and I are prone to doing, but neither of them appeared to be put out by it. I aspire to that level of patience – serenity now! With Don, his spiritual journey seems to have led him to a place where he has an easy relationship with whatever life throws at him, with a gentleness, grace and wisdom that is difficult to find these days. We had many laughs at the various stories of people thinking he was a bikie or a vagrant, which again reminded me – as with many times on this trip already – that judging someone solely on their looks will almost always get you into trouble. Finally, they are creative and open to try anything – as their lengthy history of jobs and experiences attest – and for the last 15 years, Don has invested his time into bending timber using 150 year-old equipment and positioning himself as the only timber bending business left in Australia. I spent a day filming and editing the following short video on Don and his work and I think you can get a sense of Don's passion for the work and how it extends from his passion for the earth as he discusses working with the 4 elementals of life.
What a wondrous and rich exploration this trip is turning out to be!
Also make sure you see another perspective of this experience on Heidi's blog!


Angelica Rebeca Gonzalez-Garcia, who is living in Framingham, was reunited with her 8-year-old daughter at Logan International Airport in Boston Thursday. The pair were separated in May after crossing the U.S. border in Arizona. Gonzalez-Garcia told the Daily News she is seeking asylum in the U.S. to escape the violence in Guatemala.
BOSTON — A Guatemalan woman seeking asylum was reunited with her 8-year-old daughter Thursday, nearly two months after they were forcibly separated when they crossed the U.S.-Mexico border.
The American Civil Liberties Union of Massachusetts tweeted that the daughter, who was identified only as S.K., arrived at Boston's Logan Airport Thursday afternoon, where she was greeted by her mother, Angelica Rebeca Gonzalez-Garcia, and a crowd of supporters. Gonzales-Garcia has been living with friends in Framingham since the U.S. Immigation and Customs Enforcement allowed her case for asylum to go forward.
"Forgive me, my child, forgive me," Gonzalez-Garcia can be heard sobbing to her daughter in Spanish as the two embraced in a short video posted on Twitter.
The ACLU and two Boston-area law firms filed an emergency lawsuit in federal court demanding the immediate reunification of the family last week. The suit was among dozens filed across the country after Republican President Donald Trump ended his administration's controversial practice of separating migrant children from their parents.
Gonzalez-Garcia said at the time the lawsuit was filed that the two had been apprehended crossing the border in Arizona in May and were later sent to separate facilities. Gonzalez-Garcia was eventually released in Colorado and settled in Massachusetts, but her daughter remained in a Texas shelter.
The girl was returned to her mother after her legal team, with the help of U.S. Rep. Katherine Clark, a Massachusetts Democrat, pushed to expedite the process of designating Gonzalez-Garcia as the girl's legal sponsor, said Matthew Segal, legal director for the ACLU of Massachusetts.
Immigration officials had deemed the girl an "unaccompanied minor" and required Gonzalez-Garcia to go through fingerprinting and other screening measures that her legal team argued would take weeks if not months.
In an interview with the Daily News on Saturday, Gonzales-Garcia said she and her daughter entered the U.S. on May 9. They were placed in a detention center together with 40 other women, she said through Diego Low, who interpreted her comments from Spanish to English.
Gonzales-Garcia's daughter, then 7, was taken from her two days later on Mother's Day. She said she had no idea where her daughter was taken only that she was somewhere in Texas. At the time of her interview with the Daily News, she had spoken by phone with her daughter five times since they were separated.
"I came here to save my life, and my daughter's life from aggression and violence (in Guatemala), she said through Low, who is the director of Casa del Trabajador in Framingham, an organization that supports immigrant workers.
On Saturday she said she feared the Trump Administration's zero-tolerance immigration policy would lead to her deportation back to Guatemala without her daughter.


Alcohol consumption in Russia, despite the increase in retail prices, shows no signs of diminishing. Russia's budget revenues increased by almost 25 percent in the first three quarters of 2012 as a result of a higher excise tax on alcoholic drinks, according to the most recent Russian Federal Treasury statistics. If this rate continues, the Treasury will be in possession of an additional 250 billion rubles ($8 billion) by the end of the year. Alcohol consumption in Russia, despite the increase in retail prices, shows no signs of diminishing.


Gumbi Gumbi (Gumby Gumby) is a relatively unknown native Australian plant used by Indigenous tribes for traditional medicine.
Gumbi Gumbi can be effective against viruses and has antioxidant, antibacterial and antiparasitic properties. It may improve blood circulation, skin conditions, bone health, blood cholesterol levels as well as symptoms of depression and anxiety. Some people choose to use Gumbi Gumbi as part of their cancer treatment plan.
Gumbi Gumbi can be drunk as a tea, mixed in water or smoothies or for a more convenient option it can be taken in capsule form.
Note: Not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women. May not be suitable for use by persons with certain forms of hormone sensitive cancers.
The Herbal Teacup sources wildcrafted Gumbi Gumbi from properties West of the Great Divide (Queensland, Australia).
From time to time we will have seedlings available for local pickup.
At the Herbal Teacup we offer Organic Moringa in leaf (tea), powder and capsule form.
As well as being high in protein, vitamins and minerals Moringa has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It may assist with balancing blood sugar levels, managing weight, lowering cholesterol levels, healthy muscle growth, hormone balancing, stress, fatigue and digestive issues.
Moringa is high in protein (38%), vitamins and minerals. It is very nutritious, and jam packed with vitamins and minerals.
Vitamins: A, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B15, B17, C, D, H, K, choline, folic acid, inositol, PABA.
Minerals: Calcium, iron, phosphorous, magnesium, copper and zinc.
Moringa can be taken in hot teas, iced teas and smoothies. Some cultures add moringa to food. Capsules are ideal for people on the move. We have found that during long shifts it has helped some people to remain focused on their work and still able to go to sleep after taking it.
The Herbal Teacup sources only top quality wild crafted, organic and superior conventional herbs.
Essiac Tea was first used in the 1920's by a nurse named Rene Caisse who administered the herb to many of her cancer patients with very promising results. Despite attempts to introduce Essiac Tea as a mainstream cancer treatment, it remains an unregulated treatment, in spite of positive anecdotal reports.
The various components of Essiac Tea are known to stimulate the immune system, reduce free radical activity, reduce inflammation, prevent tumour growth, detoxify the body and sooth respiratory afflictions.
Turkey Rhubarb Root – laxative, prevents fever, anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial.
While Essiac Tea is a stand out treatment for cancer, it has many other benefits including reducing inflammation throughout the body, boosting the immune system, stimulating digestion, improving metabolism, treating respiratory illnesses and healing skin conditions.
Before taking Essiac Tea, it is important to ensure that you don't have an allergy to any of the components. Side effects of Essiac Tea may include nausea, vomiting, headaches, frequent urination, muscle aches and weakness.


Thanks...it confirmed my worst fears.
"You do not need (or want) APPHELP.DLL on Windows 95/98/ME/2000."
"Usage: sdbcreate.exe dbspec.ini out.sdb [out.reg]\n"
The good news: This is MSI-related and we don't really need the MSI installer. Once users have 4.52 installed, they can update individual files; or we can create a new installer that can be built on Win9x.
Thanks Den, I got it. Update went smoothly.
Jumper, sdbcreate should build a file called KernelEx.sdb that's required by the NSIS (not MSI) installer to build the KernelEx installation package. Without that file, the installer script bails out, so we cannot build a KernelEx installer under 9x unless the .nsi script gets modified (which I don't think we should try).
While I've added these files to repository a couple of days ago to the repository I didn't update source code packages which I'm correcting now.
I've just updated source code distribution on SourceForge to include the files in question.
KernelEx.sdb is a special database containing Microsoft Installer (MSI) transform files. These files allow the system to modify the MSI files on the fly so you don't have to mess with Orca by hand, eg. remove VersionNT dependencies.
Having that said, KernelEx.sdb needs to be recreated only if new transforms are added.
Excellent! Now that KernelEx.sdb is in the package, the NSIS installer gets built without a hitch. It's a bit larger though: 229,518 bytes versus original 228,428 bytes. But as it turns out, that's entirely the fault of NSIS (can be seen by opening both original KEx and the newly built one in 7-zip - Packed Size for $PLUGINSDIR is 182,410 vs 181,320). Maybe I should've installed v2.44 instead of 2.46 but that's me: pushing things to the limit.
Well, all in all, things went just fine. Where to, now?
Hmmm, I think most of us would benefit if KernelEX could be updated to get the latest browser version/build as possible to work flawlessly.
Maybe also Java 7 and up ?
Well, what we need most is a whole lotta luck, right now. I don't know much of programming either, when it comes to real languages such as C/C++/C#, Delphi, ASM and so on. I could read and possibly understand portions of code, but not the "full picture", unfortunately. I've been working mostly with AutoHotkey, which is a macro language, interpreter-based, single-threaded, completely unsuitable for kernel-related tasks. I can at most build a few small utilities to aid in programming or daily computer operation, but other than that, I'd leave it to much more knowledgeable people.
Thing is, all (or greatest majority) of nowadays' applications are completely disregarding RAM, CPU, storage limitations, considering the new hardware's capabilities. However, us 9x users cannot benefit from newest hardware, but are limited to old one that we can still find drivers for. As such, any software we use should take into account the maximum RAM size (512MB for standard 98SE, 1.15GB or more for ME or R. Loew's patch users), maximum CPU type (instruction sets, speed, number of cores, etc), maximum HDD storage considering the FAT/32 file system and cluster size, maximum USB speed (no USB 3.0+ drivers for 9x) and whatever else I may have omitted here.
Since nowadays' software doesn't care about the above, we either need programmers that could build drivers for newest hardware, or programmers that could build a whole new set of applications with regard to the 9x limitations mentioned above. But then, another issue arises: old hardware will eventually fail, spare parts will be hard - and at some point, impossible - to find and with no drivers for new hardware, we will be forced to give up. And personally, I would rather give up internet and computers as a whole, than being just an extension of 'the cloud'. Simple as that!
A good place to start might be to review and update all the version strings.
Most of the DLL's have product version "4.5.2" and file version "4, 5, 12, 0".
Sheet.dll has product version "1, 0, 0, 7" and file version "1, 0, 0, 7"
At the end of the install (or whenever run) verify.exe reports "v4.5.120".
I suggest updating all product versions to "4.5.3" and verify.exe to "v4.5.3"
Also the copyrights are 2009-2010; should be 2009-2011 (at least).
Comments, Legal Trademarks, Private Build Description, Special Build Description can be removed (unless you want to use them).
Edit: Just realized you might want to start a new topic "KernelEx 4.5.3 alpha"!
Leyok, it would be possible to use a good defragmentation tool like Defraggler when you release a new version of KeX?
As soon as you decide to release it, Leyok, please do open a new thread. I'll make it sticky as soon as I see it.
It would be great to implement changes so that the latest version of Opera can be used on Windows 98, including fixes for opening links from external programs (which currently crash Opera).
Please urgently support a newer Firefox version.
Unfortunately, Firefox has become a huge resource hog. I have to use it everyday under XP and at some point it takes about 1GB of memory + HDD space, goes slower and slower until it can't be operated anymore and needs restarted. Of course, this may also be the fault of certain extensions I have active, but if it wasn't for those, I wouldn't be browsing the Internet nowadays. I have a fixed monthly download quota and can't afford to waste it with useless advertising, Flash and whatnot.
Guys, I'm afraid we need a new browser, designed from scratch for Win9x, that can use HTML5 but can also be able to reject all that advertising that's cluttering the pages. But I already know the answer to that: "keep dreaming..."

Exterior of swimsuit is pristine.
The interior of the swimsuit has a few minor spots and a minor tear. There is one light 1/4" rust blemish on front lower bottom panel. There is a 2" vertical tear at crotch seam, with some very minor rust staining, which can easily be repaired. On back of swimsuit, very close to elasticized leg band, is one reddish brown spot (probably rust), approx 1/8" x 1/8". I see a very tiny speck at right hip, and on the back, near seat, a brownish spot - both not even noticeable in photograph.
Swimsuit is clean. Elastic is strong, swimsuit is not stretched out in any way.
This is a rare swimsuit that I am very familiar with and, considering it is over 60 years old, I will state that it is in excellent condition.


Use the checklist below to ensure you are taking all the proper steps before towing.
• The tire pressure on both the trailer and the tow vehicle should be checked to ensure they are at the recommended pressure.
• The lug nuts or bolts on the trailer and the tow vehicle should be tightened to the correct torque.
• Anything on or in the trailer should be correctly and tightly tied down. Ensure that the load is distributed equally between the front and the back, and side to side.
• The hitch of the tow vehicle should not be too high or too low, making the trailer unlevel.
• The safety chains should be crossed and attached to the tow vehicle. Make sure they are not touching the road, but leave enough slack to allow you to turn normally.
• The wiring should be properly connected to the tow vehicle. Again, make sure any wiring is not touching the road, but leave enough slack to allow you to turn normally without disconnecting or damaging any wires.
• Connect the breakaway system lanyard if applicable and connect to the tow vehicle but do not connect to the safety chains or the ball mount.
• The lights should be working to include running lights, turn signals, brake lights, and hazard lights.
• Raise the trailer jack and any stabilizers and lock them in place.
• Adjust mirrors if needed for better visibility.

Top 10: Highlights from 2018
What a season 2018 was!
Dan Nicholls
It's easy to forget there even was a footy season given all of the off-field craziness over the past month-or-so.
2018 was a season full of highlights on and off the field. We take a look at 10 of the very best moments.
These are meant to be fun and are a personal view. There will be plenty of highlights that have missed the cut but without going back and re-watching every game, the below stick out for me.
Please let us know what moments were in your top 10.
10. Cooper Cronk Grand Final heroics
Will he or won't he? The Cooper Cronk injury was a huge subplot in Grand Final week. It dominated headlines and had the very real chance to completely detail the Roosters title tilt.
Simply put, Cronk played the game with one arm. By all rights he should never have played that game. If it were not a Grand Final, he's almost no chance to play.
The effort put in by the Roosters number seven justified the decision to bring him in on big dollars and big sacrifice.
Cronk was brilliant despite the Storm attempting to target him. He was well protected by his tri-colour team mates but he didn't try and hide.
He directed traffic, kicked well and had a blinder. Brilliant!

Douglas Farrow Kennedy Dickie and the Kelowna Owls went 4-0 to capture their first tournament of the season in Abbotsford.
The Kelowna Owls confirmed their reputation as one of the teams to beat in B.C. high school girls basketball by capturing the Skyline Invitational last weekend in Abbotsford.
Paced by national program candidates Taya Hanson and Kennedy Dickie, the Owls, ranked No. 2 in AAA, earned four straight convincing victories at the 12-team tourney hosted by University of the Fraser Valley.
In Saturday's final, Dickie scored 23 points and grabbed 15 rebounds to lead the Owls to a 75-53 victory over the fifth-ranked Abbotsford Panthers. Jaeli Ibbetson also scored 23 points in the title-clinching win.
Dickie, who scored 79 points during the tournament, was named to the tournament's first all-star team.
Hanson scored 75 points during the weekend and was named the tournament's MVP.
The Owls are coached this season by Darren and Heather Semeniuk.
Heather, the former head coach of the UBC Okanagan Heat women, said the Owls of 2017-18 possess plenty of skill, depth and experience.
Both Dickie and Hanson are off to Toronto this week for Basketball Canada's Cadet U17 and Junior U18 assessment camps which will run until Dec. 19.
Led by Hanson's 26 points and 20 from Dickie, the Owls advanced to the Abbotsford tourney final with an 85-40 win over G.W. Graham in the semis.
KSS also defeated WJ Mouat 92-40 and the Semiamhoo Totems 86-60 in the quarterfinal round.
