Beacon Hill Experiences More Pollution Than Other Seattle Neighborhoods
Boxed in by loud vehicles, plane traffic, and their fumes, its residents just want to breathe easy.
By Hayat Norimine 12/19/2017 at 8:00am Published in the January 2018 issue of Seattle Met
From the rain-soaked garden where a Spanish-speaking mother and her children sat on an early November morning, whiffs of rose and lavender reached the door of social justice nonprofit El Centro de la Raza. Inside, bunting hung from the ceiling for Dia de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, honoring friends and family members who have died. But an exhibit mourning a different kind of death was displayed among them. Two maps on a poster board tracked flight arrivals and takeoffs from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport; miniature red and blue airplanes dangled from the branches of a small plastic tree. We can't focus, complained a flyer signed by "the Beacon Hill community." We can't sleep.
"Our dearest Silencio, Peace y Quiet," the eulogy continued, "we miss you so much."
The Southeast Seattle neighborhood, one of the most diverse in the city, is boxed in by traffic. Two major arterials, Rainier Avenue and Martin Luther King Jr. Way, run east. Head west and you'll hit Interstate 5; Interstate 90 is north. And, on average, every three minutes during peak periods, an airplane roars overhead. Seventy to 80 percent of the planes that land at Sea-Tac fly a mere 2,500 to 3,000 feet over Beacon Hill.
"Some days you feel like, Are we at war?" says Maria Batayola, chair of the Beacon Hill Council.
Rising demand for more Sea-Tac flights has led to even more sound. Between 2012 and 2016, aircraft landings increased by a third. The Port of Seattle estimates the number of passengers who travel through Sea-Tac will grow from 47 million to 66 million by 2034. Residents fear that, between increasing traffic congestion and the city's expanding transit infrastructure, they will have to bear the brunt of unintended consequences.
They have reason to worry. While pollution in the United States has improved with stricter regulations, some of us are breathing cleaner air than others. A recent study by University of Washington professor Julian Marshall showed people of color are exposed to more pollutants than white Americans. But Marshall wasn't anticipating how much more—the exposure rate for people of color was nearly 40 percent higher, a number that had barely changed in the 10 years prior.
And, even to Marshall's surprise, money made no difference—the imbalance exists regardless of income. Rich people of color still breathe dirtier air than rich white people. "It's the part that stares me in the face every day when I look at this," he says.
Nonwhites are 2.5 times more likely to live in areas with high levels of nitrogen dioxide.
Batayola and others have long suspected that Beacon Hill is disproportionately affected by the air and noise pollution from the planes. So in 2016, Batayola successfully applied through El Centro de la Raza for a two-year, $120,000 environmental justice grant from the Environmental Protection Agency. She and Roseanne Lorenzana, a former EPA toxicologist and UW public health professor who lives in Beacon Hill, have used some of the money to start collecting data on air pollution exposure. After presenting the results to their neighbors at a series of community meetings, they then asked for ideas to improve their environment. The brainstorming sessions lasted months, and required the help of six translators; about half of Beacon Hill residents are Asian or Pacific Islander, and 44 percent are foreign born. In the end, though, they drew nearly 300 suggestions. Batayola and Lorenzana used them to plot out a community action plan.
Beacon Hill residents can't easily tap federal aid because they don't live right by the airport. But they think they may have a right to the government's help mitigating noise and emissions.
Title VI prohibits racial discrimination for any program that provides federal financial assistance. If the national airport mitigation program refuses to help minority neighborhoods impacted by aircraft emissions, the center could argue it's violating federal law.
"How do we get to say, 'Wait a minute, we're unduly burdened by this' ?" Batayola says.
She was 14 years old when her family moved from the Philippines to the Central District, but she always wanted to live in Beacon Hill.
She wanted a place where she could feel welcome and share a community with other residents who looked like her—"a welcoming place," she says, where she wanted to raise her kids. She relocated there in her 20s and stayed for 32 years before leaving for Bellevue when she married. Still, she spends several days a week volunteering in Beacon Hill for the community she loves.
She thinks it's worth standing up for a neighborhood that's become a haven for so many people of color. They just wish the peace and quiet there would return.
"We promise to make things better," pleads the flyer on display at El Centro de la Raza. "Please come back."
Updated December 21, 2017. Rather than boost the number of passengers traveling through Sea-Tac, as the article originally stated, the Port of Seattle estimates an increase based on the growth of the region.

Q: Is the a way to skip a failing event in Axon? I'm am trying to implement a method for skipping events which will endlessly replay due to unforeseen problems with legacy data. Currently, a failing event blocks the segment stopping other events in that segment being processed. I don't want to delete any events as we are trying to maintain the immutable nature of the event store.
We are using Axon 3.4 and would like to avoid upgrading this. I've investigated possible solutions and have considered using the reset method on the tracking event processors to specify that they start processing from the tracking token of the next event (allowing us to investigate the failure and replaying from the start when it is resolved) but can't find any way of establishing what the next tracking token would be. Is there a way of establishing this in Axon or possibly through querying the Postgres database where we store our events?

A: If you want to skip this event everywhere, than the most reasonable and simple solution I can think of is to introduce an Upcaster which permanently filters out that event from the Event Stream.
To achieve this I'd suggest to create an EventUpcaster implementation, as here you receive the Stream of IntermediateEventRepresentation instances. On such an IntermediateEventRepresentation you can check which type it is, potentially event the contents if you need, and filter it from the stream as desired.
This should work regardless of the fact that you are on an old release of Axon Framework by the way.


The goal of this FireOwls datacenter interconnect (DCI) deployment is to ensure layer 2 extension, anycast gateway and host mobility. VxLAN traffic can be transported within the datacenter via multicast (PIM), or unicast (injected via MP-BGP).
VLAN traffic is mapped and encapsulated into VxLAN.
VxLAN information (L2/L3) is inserted into BGP EVPN, and advertised to the spines.
Spines act as BGP route reflectors, and distribute VxLAN information (L2/L3) to the rest of VTEPs and Border Gateways in the datacenter.
VTEPs install the relevant entries in their L2/ARP tables. Border Gateways advertise VxLAN information to external datacenters via unicast.


On the surface, it appears incongruous: a correlation between sculpting and commercial real estate. But as sculptor and commercial realtor Frank Mann explains it, it makes good sense.
The services Mann provides include helping clients develop strategic and master plans, efficiency program consulting, acquiring, disposing of or consolidating office space, capital markets strategy and build-to-suits. He serves an international client base from cities throughout the United States, Asia, Latin America and Europe. His recent work with Chinamex, a successful global business incubator which established a U.S. headquarters in Atlanta this fall, provides a snapshot of the alliance director process.
The Chinese firm, headquartered in Beijing, was looking for a site in the United States that could serve North America and act as a jumping off point for developing business in South America.
An Illinois native, Mann earned his bachelor's degree from Northern Illinois University and a master's in business administration from Olivet Nazarene University. He began his career in commercial real estate services at Jones Lang LaSalle, a global financial and professional services firm. He worked for that firm for 16 years, arriving in Georgia in 1996. In 2006 he made the move to Cushman & Wakefield.
"One of the things I love about Atlanta is that if you come here and say, 'I want to get involved,' they welcome you," Mann says. He is an active, enthusiastic supporter of the Metropolitan YMCA of Atlanta where he's served on the board for the past 10 years. In November 2009 he was honored as volunteer of the year for the organization.
Mann is also a member of the board for Young Audiences, an organization providing in-school arts assemblies and programs. "Children are inspired by art," he says. "They might not become an artist but it might be the thing that causes them to stay in school and further their education." And who knows, maybe one of those kids will become a sculptor, or even a commercial real estate services alliance director.

Miller Chemical is rebuilding the warehouse that burned down in a massive fire June 8, 2015.
The building is expected to be complete on the one-year anniversary of the fire, officials said.
The structure will now have fire hydrants, a sprinkler system, a large retention pond and non-combustable construction.
Miller Chemical and Fertilizer is scheduled to complete construction of a new building by June 8, the one-year anniversary of the day a massive fire leveled its warehouse and caused $20 million in damages, officials said this week.
The company is rebuilding a $6 million warehouse in the exact footprint of the old structure, with fire prevention in mind.
Miller Chemical Vice President Mike Fiery and Conewago Enterprises Vice President Andy Brough presented updated plans for the building to the Hanover Borough and Conewago Township planning commissions this week.
Construction on the new building began in the fall, but the company wished to add several new parking spaces to the structure, prompting the meetings.
The new building, which exists solely in Conewago Township, was not required to create a new land development plan to rebuild according to the township's ordinances, Brough said Wednesday.
The building will feature 8-inch concrete exterior walls, a structural steel roof system and a sprinkler system that will notify local fire officials if activated, Brough said. The previous building was made of pre-cast concrete with multiple metal and wood pole additions.
Miller Chemical facing $6.9M federal lawsuit
It also did not have a sprinkler system because the state's building code did not require one at the time, Brough said. The new building, however, will have a system, in accordance with international building code, Brough said.
Hanover Borough Planning Commission member Timothy Seitz, who lived close to Miller Chemical at the time of the fire, took issue with the lack of a sprinkler system in the original building Wednesday.
"I hear that we stayed within the boundaries of the building in order to not have to go through as much scrutiny," Seitz said. "Reassure me so that I can go back and tell my neighbors that 'oh yes, they have a sprinkler system now.'"
Brough repeated that the sprinkler system was not needed in the older building according to building code and that even in retrospect, he did not agree that the building had needed one.
Miller Chemical reimburses Adams County
"I would respectfully say to you Mr. Sietz that I've never experienced anyone in my time that has put a sprinkler system in a building when the code did not require it," Brough said. "The code was created for a reason. The code, through a lot of research and study, recommends when you do and don't need a sprinkler system."
Scott Roland, another member of the planning commission, pointed out that Sietz might find reassurance in the fact that Fiery himself also lives within five minutes of the Miller Chemical site.
"The facility has been there for well over 60 years without an issue," Fiery said.
In addition to the sprinklers and concrete exterior, the building will enlarge a retention pond on the property to be able to hold 150,000 gallons of water, Brough said. The pond will also have a valve attached to a low-flow orifice at the bottom of the pond that is capable of being closed in the event of another fire, he said.
During the June 8 fire, the existing retention pond, which was significantly smaller, overflowed with contaminated water that worked its way into the Conewago Creek, killing more than 10,000 fish, officials said at the time.
Fire at Pa. chemical plant forces residents to stay inside
With the new pond, firefighters could use the maximum amount of water on the site for one hour before the pond would be overwhelmed.
Miller Chemical officials have also worked with Southeastern Adams Volunteer Emergency Services to install four fire hydrants surrounding the site. Previously, there had only been one, Brough said.
Both Hanover and Conewago planning commissions approved the plans for the parking spaces.
In the meantime, Miller Chemical is facing a $6.9 million federal lawsuit from Environmental Products and Services of Vermont, a service hired to assist in cleanup efforts following the fire. Environmental Products and Services alleged that Miller Chemical has not fully paid their bill for the services.
Fiery declined to comment on the pending litigation Wednesday.

Approximately 700,000 knee replacements are performed annually in the U.S., according to The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery. That number is expected to swell to 3.48 million by the year 2030, the publication's study reported, partly because obesity is on the rise.
"Surgery should only be done as a last resort," says Dr. Victor Romano, an orthopedist and author of Finding The Source: Maximizing Your Results – With and Without Orthopaedic Surgery. "A knee replacement can be life-changing, but they can also be painful, wear down prematurely and become infected.

Q: Content-Security-Policy doesnt work on my site? i tried this CSP
    Header set Content-Security-Policy: "default-src 'self'; script-src 'self' https://www.google-analytics.com; style-src 'self' https://twemoji.maxcdn.com; img-src 'self' https://twemoji.maxcdn.com"

i expected that it loads my images and css from my domain and twemoji maxcdn, and script from my domain and google analytics.. but it doesnt work.. contents are showing, but no css!!! it looks like plain text site with images.. even images from tweemoji not appearing, only the images which hosted in my site are working.. even i tried script-src and style-src alone..! nothing seems to work.. i even tried wildcards too..! but when i take out the CSP header, my site loads properly..!
this is how my website looks when i activate csp with that setting..

what i am doing wrong here? and im trying to use CSP in http website.. and i am using thisin htaccess..!
and one more, how to allow inline css too?

A: I simulated your CSP headers on your site since you have it disabled at the time I checked. As oreoshake suspected, the issue is that you have inline scripts and inline styles in your code but your CSP does not allow these.
You can use 'unsafe-inline' for style-src to get past this. You may still run into issues as you'd need 'unsafe-inline' and 'unsafe-eval' for script-src; both of which are terrible and in all honesty, defeat the purpose of CSP.

A: It would be helpful if you can post the errors you are seeing or provide an example URL, but I'm going to guess the lack of 'unsafe-inline' in your style-src is the problem.
Do not worry about the implications of adding something "unsafe". For this case, the risk is next to nothing and I'd bet there isn't a single CSP out there that doesn't use style-src 'unsafe-inline' for any non-trivial site.


Since the Mediterranean origins, the fragrance of rosemary has graced humankind with its mystical properties throughout the world. This lovely herb is tagged as "dew of the sea", it is also known as love charm as it was associated with wedding ceremonies in western culture. Rosemary's significance is also found in Shakespeare's Hamlet as a symbol of remembrance.

Valentine's Day is just one week from today! If you are still trying to think of something to give to your loved one, we have you covered with this Valentine's Day gift guide!
First things first, when buying a gift, think of the other person. Think of what they would really want versus what you might want to get them. There is a difference. Another tip that might help is to jot down things you have noticed them taking an interest in. Throughout the year, pay attention to things they mention, especially if they bring it up more than once. Keep a log on your phone or computer, that way you can revisit it. It's let's the other person know that you are listening to them.
But now let's move on to the gift guide. We have divided gifts up into categories, and have included some of our favorite things we have either purchased or received throughout the years!
Scratch-Off Map: This is a really fun way to keep track of the amazing places you have been together and to plan for the next place you want to visit! There is also a great feeling of accomplishment when scratching off another country on the map.
Photo Album of Recent Trip: Compile all of the photos from a trip you and your loved one took together and put it into a nice book or album! Then you can relive the adventure together.
Classic Love Stories: If your significant other loves to read, how about getting a series of classic love stories such as Wuthering Heights, Love in the Time of Cholera, etc.? This could also turn into a great date nights of reading these books together, or downloading the audio version and listening while on a nice drive.
Book Candles: Bring a book to life in the form of smell! These candles take iconic descriptions from the pages of classic books and create that scent. Our favorite is the Mad Tea Party candle.
Text Cuff Links: We think these book-inspired cuff links are so cool! Cuff links can really be an expression of a person's personality, so these are perfect for a classy bookworm this Valentine's Day.
Two-Person Sleeping Bag or Hammock: If your loved one enjoys camping, a sleeping bag or hammock for two is an awesome gift! This way you can also snuggle up while enjoying a nice day or night out under the sun or stars.
Picnic Basket or Backpack: Who doesn't love a picnic? Whether you get a traditional basket or opt for a picnic backpack, this is another gift that can be used for fun dates together. The backpack version also allows for you to hike to a favorite spot for a romantic afternoon.
Luci Color Essence Lights: Tired of blinding each other with headlamps? Set the mood with these solar-powered lights! They come in a variety of different colors and can really class up a camp site.
Foodie Dice: If you are buying for someone who loves to cook, this is a really fun gift. Instead of having to make a decision of what to make, you just roll the dice and it will select a protein, vegetable and seasonings. It turns dinner into a game!
Man Crates: This is a big crowd pleaser! Designed as "unique gifts guys love," there are so many options to choose from. The Bacon Crate is a favorite in our household, but the Grill Master Crate is also intriguing.
Sugarfina: Well, we have purchased so much from this luxury candy store that we are now VIP members! They have cute and delicious cubes of candy, everything from gummies to chocolates. Sugar lips, sassy strawberries and Parisian pineapples of a few staples for us. These are a great gift for your "sweet"heart.
We love handmade gifts! (I am sure this is not surprising to anyone.) Not only does it show creativity and the time and effort it takes to make it, but the person making the gift gets to reflect on how much they love the person they are making the gift for. It's a win win!
If you are artistic, create a painting or drawing, or if you are musically inclined, learn and perform a song. Another use of creativity is to write or memorize a poem for your significant other or to create a scrapbook.
One of our favorite movies is Up, so we created the adventure book from the film of all the places we will go together. As we visit and experience these locations, we swap out the generic photos with pictures from our trip!
While flowers and chocolates are always a sweet thought, let's think outside the box on this one.
ORIGAMI FLOWERS: This makes for a fun activity to do together or to surprise your loved one with. Grab a few sheets of paper and create some roses instead of buying them from the store.
BACON ROSES: This may be the reason my husband married me. Get some fake flowers stems and remove the buds from the top. Then roll pieces of bacon to look like a rose and bake them in the oven. Finally, assemble the bouquet!
HAND-MADE CHOCOLATES: Make your own chocolate-covered strawberries or try some no bake truffles.
We hope you enjoyed our Valentine's Day gift guide! Share your V-day gifts with us on Instagram! Tag us @mayberry_multimedia or #mayberrymultimedia.

People of the North: Sebastian Moss, Director of George Moss & Sons
George Moss & Sons Ltd (GMS) was established by Sebastian's Great Great Grandfather, George Moss, in 1920 and has taken various different paths in its 100-year history although it has always been recognised as a construction company. Even before the incorporation of GMS, George had a Joiners shop with a core activity of making coffins for the nearby funeral parlours along with general joinery work.
George had eight sons and a daughter. One of the sons, William, was chosen to be Managing Director of GMS as he was deemed to be the biggest personality and the most business savvy of his siblings. This appeared to be a wise decision as with William at the helm the business was able to take advantage of the enormous amount of construction work available after the war. The Leigh office remained the headquarters and the company flourished with four single decker buses taking their own construction workers to sites daily.
Moss Industrial Estate was acquired in the 1950's with William making an exchange with land he owned in Risley, the purpose of the site at this point in time was to act as a stop gap for workers so not to lose workers.
When Walter Moss, William's son, took over as MD he decided to shrink the company to make it more manageable. By focusing on the local area, the business built a number of prominent buildings, including Leigh Library, Tyldesley Swimming Baths, St Helens Law Courts as well as various schools and hospitals across the region. Walter also began to build a number of units on Moss Industrial Estate.
In the 1980's, Walter's sons, Philip and Jonathan joined the company and an era of housebuilding replaced the commercial contracting work. This was relatively short lived as the economic recession in the late 80's bought this to a halt and the decision was made to concentrate solely on Moss Industrial Estate.
Sebastian Moss is now the fifth generation to run the business.
How long have you been running GMS and what is your main focus?
I have been running the business since June 2011. We are a commercial property investment company with our primary investment being Moss Industrial Estate in Leigh which we continue to develop with our in-house construction team.
What or who was the inspiration for the business current path you are on?
When growing up, I always knew that I wanted to run my own business. I wanted to be the one who determined my own success or failure in my working life and knew that I would thrive on the challenge of making my business a success.
I was fortunate that I was offered an opportunity in our family business and then given the freedom to express and implement my ideas by my father. Now that my father has retired, the weight is on my shoulders and, although the pressure can become overwhelming, I wouldn't have it any other way.
The inspiration, therefore, has been my father who I have watched fight to create a company which is not only successful but reflects the way in which he wants to live his life.
Is there one piece of advice you wish you'd been given before you joined the business?
People are very different; you need to understand what motivates them.
What is the one most important thing you've learned during the experience of running the business?
A great team is worth its weight in gold. We have employees which have been with us for over 20 years and they are an integral part of the company. Particularly in a family business like ours, it is not only the family members who build and hold the reputation of the company but its loyal employees.
What do you see as your future business challenges?
Apart from Brexit….? Adaptation of current business practises to meet the environmental challenges we face.
What would you like to leave as your business legacy?
Family companies are a funny thing as they often have more than one eye on the succession of the company. This is particularly relevant for ourselves as we are primarily an investment company now. Although my son is still very young, I would like to leave the company in a strong position to meet future challenges so that my son may, if he wants to, take it forward and put his own imprint on this historic company.
What do you consider to be your biggest business achievement so far?
Bringing a long-established family company into the 21st century, with new systems, practises and ways of thinking while retaining the core values of a family company where the relationship with customers and suppliers is the cornerstone of the business.
Unlike many Landlords, and particularly those of yesteryear, we want to work with our customers by supporting their ambitions. We have been looking differently at the Landlord – Tenant relationship and believe that by providing a great place to work and keeping our door open we can play our role in aiding the growth of our customers. Who will, in turn, want to stay with us as long as we can provide the accommodation that suits their business's needs.
You can't ignore technology. It is changing so fast, and it is important that we embrace this and use it to our advantage to stream line our everyday activities and to make sure that we stay one step ahead of the competition.
When you are not running your business, what do you do to relax?
I have my side project which is the restoration of my house. When I'm not doing that or working I try and get into the mountains to do some trekking. It's such great way to get away from the stresses of running your own business and there are some magical places to explore.
What do you consider to be your biggest achievement outside of business?
I ran 7 marathons in 7 days from Manchester to London for our family charity the Natalie Kate Moss Trust.
After the death of my younger sister, Natalie, from a Brain Haemorrhage we set up the Natalie Kate Moss trust to fund research into strokes at Manchester University and also to offer scholarships to those who had suffered a brain injury and wished to study at the university. The run from London to Manchester took place roughly about a year after the death of my sister and it really kick started the charity which has supported some amazing people and incredible research at Manchester University over the past 7 years.
What would you be doing if you weren't running your business?
If I wasn't running another business I have often dreamt of sailing around the world.
If my wife would come with me(!) I would probably try and find someway to realise this dream. Probably by captaining someone else's boat!

Getting to Know the Safari Guides at Cottar's
Safari Guides can make or break your safari experience in Africa.
The knowledge, experience and attitude of safari guides are critical. There is more to being a guide than just being able to answer questions and offer the odd fact or figure on a game drive. It is about providing guests with an experience- a genuinely wild African adventure.
So, where do you go for a genuinely wild African adventure with the best safari guides? Cottar's 1920s Safari Camp.
This award-winning camp has the highest number of Gold rated safari guides within one camp in Kenya (the highest professional level).
Scouting for wildlife with Cottar's safari guides
Q & A session with the safari guides at Cottar's
Ken Kinoti
Ken Kinoti, safari guide at Cottar's
Q: Where are you from?
A: I was born on the northern slopes of Mount Kenya in Meru, where my parents continue to reside. I currently reside in Nairobi with my family which includes my two children, a boy and a girl.
Q: How long have you been a safari guide?
A: I have been leading safaris since 2003, and joined the Cottar's team in 2009- so 15 years!
Q: What would you say are your strengths as a safari guide?
A: I am trained to handle firearms for guided walking safaris and my passion for ornithology (the study of birds). I have completed many educational courses including courses in hotel management, tours and travel from Cambridge Tutorial College. I am also planning on taking the FGASA (Field Guide Association of Southern Africa) course towards the end of 2018.
Q: What do you do in your spare time?
A: I love camping and farming!
Q: What is your favourite safari story?
A: One of my favourite stories to tell the guests is about his scary run in with a rhino while I was on a safari with some diehard rhino fans.
Q: What do you love most about being a safari guide?
A: Every day out in the bush is totally different. Being out there, experiencing the moment, capturing the moment and sharing the moment, is what it's all about.
Enock Sayagie
Enock Sayagie, safari guide at Cottar's
A: I grew up and went to school in Nkoilele in Siani of Masai Mara County.
Q: Tell us more about your qualifications:
A: I went to Kenya Utalli College for the 2 year internationally accredited Tour Guiding Course from 2007 to 2009, during which time I also undertook a course in Spanish Language. I successfully graduated in 2009 with a Diploma in Guiding and a Proficiency Certificate in Spanish.
After graduation from Kenya Utalii College, I have since worked at Siana Springs as a Masaai Cultural Lecturer, while undertaking further field-training in Guiding. I have been awarded a Kenya Professional Safari Guide Association Silver-Level Certificate.
I am currently undertaking studies for the KPSGA Gold-level certificate and expects to sit exams, and pass, in November of this year.
Q: How long have you been a safari guide at Cottar's?
A: I joined the Cottar's team in 2012 so, 6 years.
A: I am a big fan of Manchester United and enjoy playing local football for relaxation. I am also involved in the community work on a voluntary basis in the Siana
location. We focus on issues of wildlife conservation and the environment and I also stand in as a primary school teacher.
Q: What do you love most about the Masai Mara?
A: The Masai Mara is one of the greatest wildlife areas on the planet but to us this place is home. Growing up here means you form a very strong bond with the natural world, where it becomes an essential part of your life. As a Masai guide at Cottar's we have an opportunity to share one of the greatest spectacles on earth.
Lucy Nabiki Takona
Lucy Nabiki Takona, safari guide at Cottar's
A: I was born in April 1991 in a village called Naroosura in Maasai Mara.
Q: You are the first female guide at Cottar's, what inspired you to be part of this predominantly male career?
A: I started school at the age of 13 years; my dad had attempted to marry me off to a very old man who I had never met.
I was very disappointed because I wanted to complete school since I was the only girl who had gone to school in my village.
When I discovered that my dad wanted to marry me off, I ran to my aunt's house to seek refuge as she was supportive of education and all her children were going to school. She then intervened and called a meeting with the elders and with my dad and they succeeded in convincing him to take me back to school.
It came at the time when the school went on a school trip to Nairobi National Park where I met a lady who took us around and from her I gained the interest of becoming a safari guide.
A: After completing high school in 2010, I joined Koiyaki Guiding School in Maasai Mara at Naibosho Conservancy for 2 years where I graduated as a safari guide.
Later I joined African Impact Voluntary Project in Naibosho Conservancy that deals with the monitoring of the big cats and community work and gained 3 years' experience in the field by working with them. Later, I moved to Enkewa Camp where I was given an opportunity of being the Safari guide.
I joined the Cottar's safari team in the beginning of 2017 and delighted to be their first female guide.

The boys have been having fun swimming this summer. We are very grateful for friends that have invited us to their homes for pool time. It definitely beats the heat and they are becoming more and more comfortable with the water. Hopefully, the "swimmies" will come off soon. David is a little more cautious, but Daniel, as you can see goes for the gusto.


Our amazing students come from some equally fantastic families. So we're always excited to harness the talents and energy of the adults in our community.
The Parent Association is a volunteer organization that supports and helps to coordinate friend-raising and fundraising activities for MSD, as well as enhances and supports all aspects of our children's education.

Use whatever fresh or frozen fruit you have on hand to make this old-fashioned crumble. Typical crumble topping has as much as a half cup of butter—ours has just a bit of coconut oil and, for richness, chopped almonds, which are full of healthy monounsaturated fats.
Combine fruit with sugar, 1 tablespoon flour, and orange juice. Divide among four 6-ounce ovenproof ramekins. Combine oats, nuts, brown sugar, the remaining 2 tablespoons flour, and cinnamon. Drizzle with oil and stir to combine. Sprinkle over the fruit mixture. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet.
Nutrition Bonus: Vitamin C (18% daily value).

CRYSTAL PALACE striker Glenn Murray faces Sunderland on Saturday as currently the most successful striker in the Premier League.
Murray has scored five times in the last five matches, a better strike rate than Olivier Giroud of Arsenal, Diego Costa of Chelsea, and Tottenham's Harry Kane.
Manager Alan Pardew said: "Goals per minute he is the best striker in the League, and that's great for us and a great tag for him to carry."
His goals have come in just 447 minutes of football and his performances have hoisted Palace to a position in the League where they are looking for a top-10 finish.
Murray has only recently broken into the side because of injury and Pardew added: "He has had to change his game a little, but then so did Alan Shearer when he came back from seriously hurting himself at Newcastle.
"Those injuries have taken a yard off Glenn's pace, but he has managed to adapt.
"I've always admired him and often thought I'd like to have him in my side."
Meanwhile Santiago Vergini is set to sign a new two-year deal at Sunderland if he can help them stay in the Premier League.
The £2m-rated Argentinian defender is ready to make his loan move from Costa Rican side Sport Uruguay de Coronado permanent this summer, but the deal will only be triggered if the Black Cats retain their top-flight status.
The 26-year-old is keen to pledge his long-term future to the Stadium of Light, and said: "If we stay in the Premier League then under the terms of the loan agreement, I can stay here for another two years."

Not included due to containing audio CD tracks.
Not included due to being unable to find a copy anywhere. The copies that have surfaced are only for Macintosh so it was probably never released for Windows. It just seems to be a bunch of pre-made Creative Writer documents anyway.
Not included due to space constraints, also a couple of titles contain audio CD tracks.
Not included due to space constraints.
Not included due to space constraints, also some titles seem to require ActiMates Barney in order to work.
Not included due to no proper no-cd crack being available anywhere.
Will there be a version 5 of these collections?
No. These are the final versions, burn the images to DVD-R's without regret.
Where is the Microsoft Games for Windows Vista Collection?
I have started a Microsoft games for Windows Vista collection but chose not to finish it because I feel that the games are still too recent, if that makes any sense. It would have been a pretty small collection anyway.
Will there be a Microsoft Windows 7 Collection?
Very unlikely. Although I do have a soft spot for Windows 7, in my opinion the Windows Vista era marked the end of classic Microsoft software. Titles like Microsoft Encarta and Microsoft Works were discontinued after that and everything became more web based. Anyway, even if I do create a Windows 7 collection it won't be released before Windows 7's end of extended support in January 2020.
Will there be a Windows NT collection?
No, these Microsoft software collections are centered on the home user experience. I have no interest in creating a Windows NT collection.
Wouldn't it make sense to put things litsed under "titles that were considered for inclusion but were left out of these collections" on WinWordPC ?
Or are they banned here?

Turtles of Ojai / Blog / Need Supply Co.
Settled in the scenic city of Ojai, California, surrounded by the Topatopa Mountains to the north and Sulphur Mountain to the south, The Turtle Conservancy Conservation Center is home to perhaps the most docile, calm creatures on the planet.
An otherworldly oasis in central Ojai, the Conservancy made an appearance in our Go Explore lookbook. Owned and operated by restaurateur, conservationist, herpetophile and generally dope human Eric Goode, the 5-acre conservancy is home to 900 turtles and tortoises from 32 species. The Turtle Conservancy is the premiere facility for breeding Critically Endangered – the highest risk category for endangered species – turtles and tortoises in the world.
In addition to its main office in New York and the conservation breeding center in Ojai, the organization overseas multiple programs and efforts around the world. They recently accumulated about 1000 acres in South Africa for another project; they're working with several species in Madagascar; helping with trade monitoring in Southeast Asia; and are working with a newly discovered species of Desert Tortoise in Mexico.
The Property, with its birds, lizards, abundant flora and greenhouses scattered along the property, acts as an inherently tranquil backdrop for the work taking place at the facility.
Turtles and tortoises are adapted to very specific environments – vegetation, humidity and temperature all play a crucial role in the survival of these beings. The Conservancy staff has taken great care to mimic different biomes by equipping multiple greenhouses with varies temperatures, humidities, biota and landscapes. One greenhouse mimics the cloud forests at the top of the Thai mountains, another parodies the lowlands of Southeast Asia. Yet another simulates the arid climates in Namibia and South Africa.
The goal of Ojai's breeding center is, of course, to breed these critically endangered creatures; a third of the species housed at Ojai are on the International Union for Conservation of Nature's Tortoise and Freshwater Turtle Specialist Group's "Top 40 Most Endangered" list. And, because breeding species in captivity is a volatile science, the Conservancy can have success in getting the animals to mate, but many of the eggs laid aren't fertile.
Across the globe, turtles are depicted as easygoing, patient, and wise creatures. Due to their long lifespan, slow movement, sturdiness, and wrinkled appearance, they are an emblem of longevity and stability in many cultures around the world. Their magnificence, though, makes them a coveted human target. Turtles and tortoises – whose populations have been slashed to a sliver of what they once were in recent decades – face a threefold threat of extinction: the pet trade, opportunistic consumption and traditional folk medicinal practices.
Some species of tortoise sell for up to 200 thousand dollars on the Black Market. Often times, explains Max, these turtles are snatched from Madagascar, flown through Nairobi, then through Bangkok and wind up in China, where they "sit in someone's apartment as some sort of status symbol." In ancient Chinese writings, turtles are often depicted as oracles, with magical healing properties found within their shell. The most prominent example of these creatures being killed for use in folk medicine is a species called the Golden Coin Turtle. Endemic to southern China, the Golden Coin Turtle is used to create Guīlínggāo, or turtle jelly.

Are You Downsizing and Need a Storage Facility in Plymouth, MA?
Whether you are moving or want to clear an area in your home, downsizing is an important activity. To make the task easier, you need to know how to sort your items and furnishings so they can be donated, kept, or transported. Therefore, you need to inventory the items first.
In the case of a move, inventorying the items will help you obtain a quote for relocation. It will also help you determine what size unit you may need in a storage facility in Plymouth, MA. What you do not donate or move, you may want to house in a storage unit.
You can sort the furniture by the items you want to move and the items you want to place into a storage facility. Next, you will need to separate your clothing by what you want to keep and what you want to donate. Prepare the donated clothing for such places as the Salvation Army. You might also try to sell unwanted clothing or apparel on consignment.
You can either choose to keep bric-a-brac or donate it. The same goes for books, DVD's, and VHS tapes. If you want to save certain books, DVD's, or tapes, but you do not want to move them, store them in a climate-controlled storage facility. It is important to choose a unit that is climate-controlled to preserve your items.
A climate-controlled storage unit will prevent items from fading or becoming moldy. If you need help from an organizer, you can also find businesses that will help you with this service. Downsizing, again, takes some time, as you need to prepare. To get more information about moving and storage, go online and look for local movers who provide climate-controlled storage.

Feb. 29, 2012. MOUNT OLIVE, NC — The Mount Olive College men's basketball team outscored Lees-McRae College by a 39-20 margin in the second half on Tuesday night en route to a 74-48 victory in the quarterfinal round of the Conference Carolinas Tournament.
Mount Olive (20-7) posted a field goal percentage of 48.3 percent on the night, including a 53.6 percent clip in the second half, while limiting Lees-McRae (9-17) to a mark of 32 percent from the floor. The Trojans won the battle on the glass by a 40-25 margin, including a 26-15 advantage on the defensive boards, while converting 15 Bobcat turnovers into 16 points.
DJ Brown (Anderson, S.C.) paced the Bobcats with 14 points on 4-of-9 shooting, including a 4-for-8 night from beyond the arc, as BJ Battle (Orlando, Fla.) and Asad Lamot (Mebane, N.C.) added nine and eight markers, respectively. Jeremiah Henry (Semmes, Ala.) chipped in seven points and six rebounds, as DeAndre Tillman (Charlotte, N.C.) posted two blocked shots to finish the year with the fifth-highest single-season total in school history (34). Lamot also added five assists for the Bobcats.
Craig Hayes led all scorers with 20 points for the Trojans, as Derek Staton and Jordan McCain added 19 and 16 markers, respectively. Staton dished out a game-high six assists, as McCain pulled down a contest-best eight rebounds and Dory Hines chipped in five assists.
After Mount Olive made a pair of buckets to snatch a 18-14 advantage, Lees-McRae responded with a 9-4 run to take a narrow 23-22 lead on a Lamot triple at the 6:04 mark. Mount Olive would answer with a 13-5 spurt, taking a 35-28 lead into the intermission following a last-second lay-in by Tillman.
The Trojans carried the momentum into the second half, opening the period with a 14-2 run to push the margin to 49-30 on a layup by Hayes with 12:30 to play. Mount Olive would hold on from there, stretching the margin to as many as 29 points.
Lees-McRae is expected to return 12 letter-winners from this year's squad, including rising seniors Henry, Brown, Daniel Sepokas (Illawong, Australia), Corey Young (Bluff City, Tenn.), Chad Eppley (Boone, N.C.), Robert Hawthorne (Greenville, S.C.), and Juan Urbina (Barquisimeto, Venezuela).

IS INDONESIA REALLY A PANDEMIC BASKET CASE?
How to stretch, bend and twist the truth out of shape without lying? That's what Covid-19 'news' reporting is all about. Distraction and distortion. By Dean Baker.
You might think so from reading this New York Times (NYT) article. The piece tells readers that Indonesia had 20,000 positive cases on Thursday (June 24). Furthermore:
"and the national percentage of positive Covid tests reached 14.6 per cent this past week. By comparison, the weekly positivity rate in the United States is now 1.8 per cent."
The article also reports that a number of doctors and other health care workers have been infected, and several have died, even after getting two shots of Sinovac, one of the vaccines developed by China.
Unfortunately, the piece does not put any of this in a context that is likely to make it meaningful to most NYT readers. First, it would be helpful to point out that Indonesia's population is 276 million, more than 83 per cent of the size of the US population. That means the 20,000 cases reported on Thursday would be equivalent to roughly 24,000 cases in the United States. The infection rate in the United States peaked in late January at more than 250,000 a day, a figure more than ten times as high, adjusted for population.
While the high positive rate on tests indicates a large number of infections are going undetected, the US also had a much higher positive test when its infection rates were peaking. In mid-January the positivity rate was averaging over 13.0 per cent, only slightly lower than the rate in Indonesia.
It also is worth noting that the 20,000 cases reported on Thursday may have been an anomaly. The country reported 18,900 cases today (June 29) and its seven day average is under 15,000.
Of course Indonesia is much poorer than the United States and is less able to deal with seriously ill Covid patients, but its lack of medical facilities and equipment is clearly the big problem, not the large number of cases.
Also, the report that some number of doctors and health care workers are getting sick, in spite of being vaccinated, is not inconsistent with the vaccine being effective, albeit considerably less effective than the mRNA vaccines developed in the United States and Europe. As the piece reports:
"While 90 per cent of the vaccinated doctors who tested positive in Kudus were either asymptomatic or had very mild illness, according to Dr Ahmad, an already stretched health care system has been pulled taut."
The piece notes that only 5 per cent of Indonesia's population has been vaccinated. It would certainly be better if the country could get access to the mRNA vaccines, but that is not an option at present. In this context, a Chinese vaccine that protects most people against serious illness, is the best available option.

THE MANAGERS: Len Ashurst
Len Ashurst: 8 March 1984 - 24 May 1985
Len Ashurst has made more appearances than any outfield player and was first choice left back at Sunderland.
With that in mind, it was fitting that one day he would return to the club as manager.
Ashurst's move into management started with Hartlepool United before he had spells at Gillingham, Sheffield Wednesday, Newport County and Cardiff City.
Ashurst then turned down the opportunity to take over at Ninian Park and moved back to the north east to take control of Sunderland.
Buoyed by nine new players including Gary Bennett, initial results were promising with the club in seventh place by November.
But while momentum was sustained in the League Cup with a first final contested, league form declined sharply and following just three victories in the New Year the Lads suffered relegation in their penultimate game of the season.
As a result Ashurst was relieved of his duties at Sunderland and he moved out to the Middle East to coach Kuwait and Qatar.

So far, the last main set of new features of the planning engine was shipped with BW/4HANA and some of these are also available in NW BW 7,50 SP8. Most of the development we did in the past is documented in the planning section of BPC. See as example the SDN blog on 'First Steps from BW-IP and PAK towards SAP BPC 11.0, version SAP BW/4HANA planning with Embedded Model describing the improved YTD calculation support and dynamic grouping in Analysis Office. Another blog 'Improvements on Query less Reporting in BPC/4HANA Embedded and BW4/HANA' showed the work we have done together with Analysis for Office to enable business user to build reports without using or changing IT-controlled BW-queries. The reason behind publishing those in the planning section was that the requirements were very often triggered from the planning side.
However, since they are very often pure analytics feature, we now decided to move those descriptions to the BW/4HANA section and refer to them from the planning section.
But our journey to make the analytic layer stronger and add "query-less" reporting of course continued in 2017 and will continue in 2018.
Let us have a glimpse on each of the topics in detail.
The query runtime property: "Operations in SAP HANA" is used to determine to which degree operations are pushed down to HANA. Usually the execution in HANA is very beneficial if the ratio DBTRANS to DBSEL and is very small (see blog understanding query performance in nw-bw and bia) and DBTRANS is generell not to big. But currently for each query the administrator must go in and set the best value which is very time consuming and of high TCO. We want to ease this by having new values and administrator just chooses one of the following standard options.
Defensive: This options corresponds to the option "Expert: Optimized access".
Standard (Default) and Offensive: The new Optimizer for operations in HANA decides if the query is executed with the option "Expert: Formulas calculated in SAP HANA with complex currency/unit" or "Expert: Optimized access".
If a query is executed with the standard option of Operations in SAP HANA, then the new developed optimizer decides if the query is executed with the advanced expert option (positive decision with respect to HANA usage) or the option "Expert: Optimized access" (negative decision with respect of HANA usage).
In case of the advanced expert option the database result set should be smaller and consequently the processing time of the database result set in the analytical manager is shorter. On the other hand, additional setup costs due to the HANA orchestrations are required for advanced expert options.
Therefore, it makes sense to execute a query with an advanced expert option only if the benefit (shorter processing time for database result set) is higher than the setup costs.
The "Optimizer for operations in HANA" estimates number of lines of the database result set for the positive decision [EST_DBTRANS_POSITIVE_DECISION] and the negative decision [EST_DBTRANS_NEGATIVE_DECISION]. The estimation considers only the parts of the query that are executed in different ways in the positive and the negative decision. The estimation considers the global filters.
Then a reduction factor is calculated: [EST_DBTRANS_NEGATIVE_DECISION] / [EST_DBTRANS_POSITIVE_DECISION].
If this reduction factor is greater than or equal to the "Minimum reduction factor" and [EST_DBTRANS_NEGATIVE_DECISION] is greater than or equal to "Minimum DBTRANS (negative decision)", then the "Optimizer for operations in HANA" assumes that the benefit of the smaller result set is higher than the setup costs for the advanced expert option. Consequently the "Optimizer for operations in HANA" decides positively to execute the query with the advanced option. Otherwise the "Optimizer for operations in HANA" decides negatively to execute the query with the option "Expert: Optimized access".
If the "Minimum reduction factor" and "Minimum DBTRANS (negative decision)" are 0 or 1, then the "Optimizer for operations in HANA" is disabled and queries are always executed with the advanced expert option.
The new transaction RSR_LTO can be used to determine proposals for the "Minimum reduction factor" and "Minimum DBTRANS (negative decision)".
In addition to the pushdown improvements, we also accelerated the internal OLAP data get calls by further parallelization for HANA optimized execution. A general estimation of this improvement is hard to give but check out your queries. In particular queries with many different intermediate sums (also caused indirect by exception aggregations) should profit.
The history of various document solution is long and was cumbersome BW. It started in BeX using KPRO or Knowledge Management based storage which was a very complete solution but slow in performance. This lead to the fact that is was rarely used and not adapted by quite more modern analytical UIs like Analysis Office or Design Studio. Different How-To Guides and consulting solution like the LGD commentary solution did evolve but only lead to limited functionality and implementations with high effort and maintenance costs. Then we developed for BW based planning solutions (IP, PAK or BPC embedded) the planning on DSO in BW 7.4. Based on this we later added the planning on SID based key figures for characteristics in the data section the so-called attributes planning. A spin off was a short text solution which removed the need for the how to solutions. The restriction on the length of the comments to less than 250 characters and the problem that comments could not be assigned to hierarchy levels did however make it an uncomplete document solution. Also for intermediate results and hierarchy nodes the NO2 aggregation was used to show comments if they are equal on lower level. But it was not possible to assign a comment itself to such intermediate levels. The improvement to put comments also on hierarchies with postable nodes did not fully mitigate those limitations.
The modern analytics UIs on the other hand follow a different approach. Already with AO 1.x one could create pure Excel comments and store them with the Excel Workbook. However, the end user then need the rights to store workbooks on the BW backend or BI platform. This was lately enhanced in AO 2.4 with the possibility to store the documents separately on the BI platform independently from the workbook. Still limitations to use comments across worksheets and use them in complex selections like key figures remained.
Thus, we decided to create a new solution which combines best of both worlds. In this solution, the length of comments is unlimited and a comment can be assigned to any hierarchy level or intermediate results. You can also assign comments to restrictions and calculations. Documents can be shared queries are found again if the selection are equal. You can even find documents from drill down in selection and vice versa when the common part is equal. And all this comes now with decent performance.
To enable documents, you must create a new BW object called "Document Store". In this "Document Store" you must assign the InfoProviders for which the store should hold the documents. All necessary fields for the document store are derived from the assigned InfoProvider(s) (plus some added fixed technical fields).
Under the hood an aDSO is generated to store the physical documents.
Tip: Do not forget to activate the new InfoObjects 0DOC* of the technical content since they are needed for the generated aDSOs.
Finally, you only must assign the document store to each query you want to use documents in the tab "Runtime Properties" of the query.
Now you can start to add documents to the query as shown here in transaction RSRT2.
You can create or change comments from the context menu of the cell.
In the example above the comment is created on customer level and on the intermediate sum for fiscal year. With a second query, where fiscal year is not in the drill down, the comment can be found on the detail level.
And I can find it again on the restriction .
or direct in the web browser via the correct URL (https://<server>:<port>/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/rsdmdm_md_maintenance_app?
The administrator can search for documents, view them, check the selection conditions or even delete documents.
With note 2569461 "Enablement of technical names (map names) of reusable key figures in queries", we made some strong improvements to better support the formula mode in AO. Now when pressing the button convert to formula the cell based formula SAPGetData shows the technical ID if given to the key figure. For example, we set the technical ID AMOUNTTHISYEAR and Description AMOUNTTHISYEAR 2007 to a restricted key figure in the query we want to use.
To switch to the formula mode, you can press the button 'Convert to Formula mode' in the ribbon after you inserted the query as data source.
Now each cell is defined by a SAPGetData Formula. The key figure now referenced is the technical ID given before.
This even work with linked nodes being available for reusable key figures also with BW4HANA 1.0 SP8.
Let us look at the linked key figure with technical ID AMOUNTTHISYEAR_LINKE /Description AMOUNTTHISYEAR 200.
It is based on the key figure AMOUNTTHISYEAR given at the beginning of this chapter. When using this new key figure AMOUNTTHISYEAR_LINKE in the query without redefining the technical ID then the technical ID AMOUNTTHISYEAR of the root is used. This is exactly what you see in the SAPGetDATA formula above.
So, it is possible to uniquely define a key figure on different info providers using linked nodes and the technical ID of the root component. This use case is very close to having a central key figure repository in BW.
Great! Finally, we will have one consolidated solution for comments without the need to create multiple planning enabled DSO's just for comments restricted to 250 chars!
Could you please tell how does the structure of the ADSO look like and how does the Document Store merge 'Cube' like ADSO + comment ADSO for reporting? Is it also that we will have ADSO with Cube like keys and new input ready KF's for comments in the backend?
the aDSO structure does not matter. The Document Store also is based on a generated aDSO. But this need not be of interest.
Thank you! Are there any plans to bring the Comment Solution also to BW 7.5 ?
So we have SP08 on our system, and I tried to create a document store. However I get the message "Creation of objects of type 'DOCA' not supported. Trying to follow your guide but the first step I am already stuck. Is there anything I need to do first?
I face the same issue in my system. Were you able to find a solution?
Anyone has been able to resolve this issue? I am bumping into this too on our system.
Application of note : 2652052 resolved this issue in our side, i hope it helps you too.
You posting managed to resolve our issue. Thank you so much.
also formula should work. Here you need to specify the technical ID. It will be then key to find the document.
Hi Frank, thanks for the update.
Just more question, from which version of BW is this solution available?


swore I wasn't going to write about Facebook again this week. Then a Facebook ad started up with the name-calling again. It wasn't a bad name, or inaccurate, but such ads do have a knack for getting noticed.
The rapid growth of SEM management services, the ad networks and ad exchanges, and the development of various toolsets in the marketplace, point to the automation of much of the online media planning, buying and management process in the next two years. But in order for this to happen, we need to address some infrastructure concerns.
Virtually every advertiser is asking for it. They have all heard about examples of YouTube videos going "viral" and reaching millions of people practically overnight. They have read the stats that say modern consumers' top trusted source for information is "people like them," and that they don't trust advertising. So advertisers have quickly jumped on the bandwagon of "social media marketing." But doing social media marketing usually takes the form of brand pages on MySpace, Facebook fan pages, or YouTube channels of brand videos. Doing "social media marketing" right is a different story entirely.
As a consumer, I've found that wireless carriers are among the most difficult companies to do business with. But as a marketer, their flops underscore live-or-die principles in how to win customers -- or how to make them hate you. My wireless carrier -- which I'll keep nameless -- recently made this abundantly clear.
Have you ever felt insulted by overzealous ad targeting? I've been hearing this come up more in conversation lately, often with people who aren't in the advertising or technology industries. One example was first mentioned to me by a female friend who saw an ad on the left side of Facebook that mentioned her age and suggested she was overweight (for the record: she's not). She was insulted enough that she actually had to close out of Facebook to escape the ad for a bit.


Setting the foundation for the sustainability of a NaWaTech system starts right at the beginning of your project, during the first meetings with your client and the first site visits. The process of ensuring the sustainability continues by means of a sound execution of the construction works and the timely and targeted planning of operation and maintenance to ensure that the client will maintain and operate the system correctly.
This NaWaKit module provides practice-oriented tips and tricks guiding you through the project phases to ensure that the NaWaTech systems are planned, designed and constructed keeping in mind the operation and maintenance needed to sustain them. This module is composed of 3 factsheets: Technology Selection and Design, Implementation of NaWaTech Projects and Safety and O&M Management.
Building the baseline for the fate of the whole project, the Technology Selection and Design factsheet describes principles for preparing a project and selecting the appropriate technologies. Moreover, critical aspects to be considered during the design are listed in this factsheet.
To be better prepared for managing the tendering and contracting, and for smoothing the construction and commissioning in the Indian context, practitioners have put together their lessons learnt in the factsheet Implementation of NaWaTech Projects.
The third factsheet, Safety and O&M Management introduces a "way-of-thinking" for systematically preparing and managing operation and maintenance following seven planning steps. The reader will be guided to identify and prioritise critical O&M and monitoring activities and to prepare the necessary supporting materials, such as operator checklists, work plans for plant supervision and monitoring plans.
