Democrats Call For Fast-Tracking Citizenship For Undocumented Essential Workers
Rep. Joaquin Castro (D-Texas) and Sen.-designate Alex Padilla (D-Calif.) are pushing for undocumented important staff on the entrance strains of the coronavirus pandemic to be fast-tracked for U.S. citizenship.
"Historical past will bear in mind them as American heroes," Padilla stated on a press name Friday, talking of undocumented folks working in agriculture, well being care, grocery shops and extra through the pandemic.
"We now have an obligation to deal with them as important," added Padilla, who will take Vice President-elect Kamala Harris' Senate seat in California after she's inaugurated. Padilla's personal mother and father got here to the U.S. from Mexico within the 1960s and labored in eating places and home cleansing.
Castro stated he's engaged on laws to right away shield undocumented important staff from deportation and pace up their path to citizenship. Castro, the previous chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, is hoping to get it handed as a part of the following coronavirus aid package deal after President-elect Joe Biden takes workplace.
"These are individuals who feed us, clear our properties and hospitals and places of work… they usually do all this whereas dwelling in worry of deportation, exploitation and now of this pandemic," Castro stated, noting that many who work in meatpacking, farm work and different front-line industries don't have the choice to work at home, and their employers don't present them with paid sick depart.
The proposed protections would apply to an estimated 5 million staff out of a complete of over 11 million undocumented immigrants within the U.S., stated Lorella Praeli, president of the advocacy group Neighborhood Change Motion.
Important staff, a lot of whom are undocumented immigrants, are American heroes—risking their lives throughout COVID to serve our nation.
I'm engaged on a invoice to right away shield important staff and their households from deportation and supply them a fast-track to citizenship.
— Joaquin Castro (@JoaquinCastrotx) January 15, 2021
Undocumented important staff braved harsh situations on farms, in packed meat factories, and took buses to wash properties, places of work, and medical services. It is time to supply these important neighborhood members a pathway to citizenship within the subsequent COVID invoice.
— Alex Padilla (@AlexPadilla4CA) January 12, 2021
Undocumented immigrants are amongst these hardest hit by the pandemic since they're disproportionately represented amongst staff deemed "important" — from farmworkers to constructing cleaners — who're risking their lives whereas tens of millions of Individuals keep dwelling.
In the meantime, undocumented immigrants have been excluded from Congress' aid packages, as they have been made ineligible for stimulus checks. They're additionally not eligible for unemployment advantages.
Because the coronavirus surges, Latinx and Black persons are round 4 occasions as prone to be hospitalized as white folks, and almost thrice as prone to die, in keeping with the Middle for Illness Management and Prevention.
Final month, France fast-tracked citizenship processes for lots of of immigrant front-line staff, together with well being care staff, rubbish collectors, housekeepers and cashiers.
Earlier this week, dozens of U.S. lawmakers signed a letter led by the Congressional Hispanic Caucus applauding Biden's dedication to immigration reform and urging him to take speedy motion, on condition that the presidency and each homes of Congress will quickly be in Democrats' arms.
Historical past will bear in mind them as American heroes. California Sen.-designate Alex Padilla, of undocumented staff within the COVID-19 pandemic
Padilla stated he and Castro plan to get the 5 million undocumented important staff fast-tracked for citizenship as a part of the following coronavirus aid invoice after which work towards a broader path to citizenship for all undocumented immigrants in a later immigration reform invoice.
"Understanding the urgency of COVID aid, it appears there's a fast and straightforward method to get a superb variety of these [people] protected sooner quite than later," Padilla stated on Friday's press name.
The incoming California senator stated he and Castro have been talking with the Biden-Harris administration and plan to speak with Home and Senate leaders quickly. The places of work of Biden's transition crew, in addition to Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), who is ready to turn into Senate majority chief, and Home Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), didn't instantly reply to requests for remark.
Biden and Harris' platform features a dedication to work with Congress to cross laws to create a path to citizenship for all undocumented immigrants within the U.S.
Greisa Martínez Rosas, head of the immigrant rights group United We Dream, stated the group helps Castro and Padilla's proposal and calls for "that Congress makes use of each avenue attainable to cross insurance policies that embody a pathway to citizenship for all 11 million undocumented immigrants."
The method for undocumented staff to realize authorized standing within the U.S. could be sophisticated and take years. When it comes to what advocates are hoping "fast-tracking" citizenship would appear to be on this case, Angelica Salas, govt director of immigrant rights group CHIRLA, stated that the laws would first be debated promptly as a part of the following coronavirus aid package deal. Then eligible immigrants would obtain inexperienced playing cards, granting them everlasting residency and safety from deportation, after which they might apply for citizenship after a couple of years.
Patrice Lawrence, co-director of the immigrant group UndocuBlack Community, stated laws recognizing immigrants' "humanity and our contributions to this nation is lengthy overdue" and {that a} invoice defending undocumented important staff is "the naked minimal this nation can do."

The British Fairbairn-Sykes fighting knife, also known as the 'commando dagger', is one of the 20th Century's most iconic knife designs. It has been copied countless times, and several modernised versions have since been made.
The Dutch knife manufacturer Hill Knives crafted a modernised Commando Dagger a few years ago. The tang was strengthened, the blade was made of N690 Extra Böhler steel (59 HRC), and the handle material was changed into anodised aluminium.
Hill Knives has made some special versions of the Commando Dagger, for instance with the logos of the Dutch Special Operations Forces, the SAS, and the Belgian Para Commandos. Now they introduce a version with the emblem of the United States Marine Corps (USMC). The blade and guard of this limited edition model are Nano Futura coated. Blade thickness is 5.0 mm and length 174 mm. The total length of the Commando Dagger is 300 mm. For more information see: www.hillknives.com.

01.01.15 I am collecting my thoughts, reflecting on my incredible journey this year. Painting is my language, and now I am interpreting and responding to the world with visible gestural marks and colors. Now I see much darkness. Yes, physically, because it is near to the solstice, yet also spiritually because of the enormous suffering in our world. And emerging from this inkiness, I see beams of light. When I hear the beautiful music of Arvo Pärt when I see thoughtfulness in the subway, or encounter a very patient person, online or walking down the street, I am reminded that each person is a light. We are all in this world together.
So I thank you for shining your light! The darkness only makes your light more precious and visible.
When I create this charcoal drawing, I tone the paper deep gray and then draw into it with rich black charcoal, defining the darkest dense areas and joining small areas to create a connected form. Then I begin to draw with an eraser to reveal the sparkling white shining through. From then on it is a dance, engaging black, gray and white, interacting with each other! Every mark I make changes the whole.
So too, it is, with the darkness of night, when the moon and lights guide our way. Every change of light and shadow reveals another path of possibility and hope.
I just now found a very motivating and practical post that reframes "making a resolution" as if "creating a story"! Sara also includes precise steps to create the story that becomes a recipe for your desired resolution, and it sounds like fun!
Therefore, I will be in my studio creating a story for the next hour today! Want to join me in spirit?
If you are not signed up for my newsletter, oh please do so now, as I will be painting and exhibiting a lot this year. I am letting my heart light the way, and I want you to be to be a part of it! I also am working on a new and transformed website! Exhilarating! Coming soon!

Maps & Beyond
Photogrammetry, GIS and Remote Sensing
The process that removes effects of relief displacement, optical sensor distortions and geometric perspective from an initial image, is called orthorectification. In normal photographs, objects closer to the camera, appear larger than objects of equal size, that are further away. This creates an obvious complexity in measuring objects accurately or determining their precise location, in a reference coordinate system. In order to use perspective imagery as a map or in a GIS environment, all geometric distortions must be corrected. The resulting image is called orthophoto.
Orthophoto can be generated from any perspective image (regardless of the source), as long as three main things are known ( aerial triangulation performed successfully) :
Interior orientation (describing internal geometry of the camera system)
Exterior orientation (describing the geometric relationship between the image and the ground)
DTM (Digital Terrain Model) must be supplied as input to the orthorectification process, in addition to the internal and external sensor geometry described above.
The quality of digital orthophotos is ensured by respecting three quality levels:
Geometric fidelity: Geometric fidelity is the trueness of features in the orthophoto to the shapes and alignments of the real world objects they represent.
Absolute accuracy: Absolute accuracy is a measure that indicates how closely the coordinates of a point in the orthophoto agree with the true coordinates of the same point on the ground, in a reference coordinate system. All ground control points used previously in aerotriangulation or from another source are located and measured on the orthophoto for ensuring requested accuracy.
Radiometric accuracy: Radiometric accuracy is a measure of the color balance, luminosity and contrast of the image. The radiometric properties of the orthophotos varies depending on the nature of the topography.
If orthophotos can be characterized as images that are geometrically corrected for relief variation, true orthophotos add the dimension of correcting for the distortion of buildings (true orthophotos do not show building lean). For big cities orthophotos will show displacement of skyscrapers and many of the streets will be obscured. This is important for mapping applications such as digitizing street centerlines.

An Archie-esque U.S.AVENGERS Finale Leading Into 2018 AVENGERS Weekly Title
By George Marston & Chris Arrant October 24, 2017 08:30am ET

U.S. Avengers is dovetailing into a weekly Avengers title in 2018, but before it does they'll be doing a Arhive/Riverdale-inspired finale - with what seems to be a return of the big bad from one of Marvel's biggest (and earleist) events.
This week's U.S. Avengers #11 is the penultimate issue of Al Ewing and Paco Diaz's corporate-style Avengers title, following up the fate of their missing teammate Cannonball. They find him on a strange planet with an Americana-name: Glenbrook, U.S.A. Glenbrook has all the trappings of an idyllic Riverdale-like 50s town - including an Archie Andrews analog named Ritchie Redwood.
...But who or what is Ritchie Redwood? Ewing teases he has a dark secret that longtime Marvel readers will recognize. Could his true identity be tied to a classic Marvel villain - such as the original Beyonder or the Skrulls - who have used simulacrum of Earth societies to set traps for heroes before?
Newsarama spoke with Ewing and Diaz about this finale, the Archie-esque shenanigans, and what's next.
Newsarama: Al and Paco, the upcoming "Legacy" arc of U.S.Avengers sends the team into uncharted territory - a world apparently based on a pretty familiar comic book of a very different genre. What can you tell us about that?
Al Ewing: Well, it's more of an affectionate celebration of that particular typical teenager - rhymes with "Starchie" - than it is a knock.
Nrama: We can say it – Archie.
Ewing: The thing about that particular universe is that it's often rolled with the times and reflected the world of today - sometimes more so than the more superhero-y comics coming out. And this story's got a lot to do with that - with the necessity of moving forward, of not getting stuck in amber. There's a pinch of classic Marvel in this story, and readers with an encyclopedic knowledge might find themselves guessing the twist a few pages before it hits, but if there's a message here, it's that - to quote a certain trickster I spent some time with - change is good. The new is good. That's as much what "Legacy"'s about as celebrating the old.
Paco Diaz: There is also certain sense of nostalgia. We have tried to convey an image of beauty - beautiful houses with gardens, vintage cars - based on the images of the advertising of the time, which will break as the plot progresses. It reminds me of the metaphor of David Lynch, at the beginning of the film Blue Velvet. The camera shows a beautiful idyllic community, with beautiful gardens and friendly people, and slowly sinks down to the surface of the grass, where it shows bugs and darkness - the strange and disturbing beneath the surface. Al does that with a Marvel twist, in a fun way.
Nrama: What threats does Glenbrook pose to the Avengers that more straightforward supervillains don't?
Ewing: Glenbrook is not what it seems. There's a dark, dark secret underneath this perfect 1950s town in the depths of space, and it's embodied in the persona of Ritchie Redwood - or rather, someone who calls himself Ritchie Redwood and is very keen to be just like Ritchie Redwood. And he's very keen that everything else be just like Ritchie Redwood too - and he has the absolute power to make it so. If I said he was a strange cross between the Emperor Caligula and the kid from the "It's A Good Life" episode of Twilight Zone, that wouldn't be a million miles from the mark. So... yeah, he's a dangerous guy.
Nrama: The title of the story is "Cannonball Run." How does the search for Sam Guthrie lead to this place?
Ewing: If you've been reading the comic for the past few months, you know that we pretty immediately went back on Sam's "death" - he was revealed alive the very next issue, but his situation has slowly been getting worse and worse. He was sold into slavery on a far-off alien world, and then picked up by an odd man in a cardigan - Howard Mason - to provide "education" on a far-off planet... that turned out to be an exact replica of a 50s American suburb. So, he's had a strange few weeks. Luckily, he's got a medical implant from the Shi'ar that pinpoints his location, so Smasher, his other half - with the U.S.Avengers as backup - is riding to the rescue. And now you know everything you need to to dive straight in!
Nrama: Paco, what is it like drawing this story, which has to balance traditional superhero characters with a more cartoonish environment?
Diaz: I have no problem doing that. We have created our own version of the characters that perfectly fits with the atmosphere of the story. Al set up just the right boundaries for this new world and its interconnections with the Marvel Universe. The characters are clearly developed. Al gives each one of them their own voice and provides great dialogue, so my job is really easy.
Nrama: The question on everyone's mind is, will Cannonball be back and healthy after this?
Ewing: He's already back! And yes, he'll be blasting off again. And that's not the only X-cameo you'll find in these pages - there are some surprising guest appearances by some classic X-characters. Or at least... bits of them?
Credit: Christian Ward (Marvel Comics)
Nrama: Ouch.
Paco, Al is known for his big cosmic ideas, and this cross-genre story might take the cake. What's the weirdest thing he's asked you to draw yet?
Ewing: Well, the mixed genres make it incredibly bizarre. It's a fun tribute to sci-fi B-series where very different concepts come together to create a purposive sentiment of strangeness. I'll just say: a big robot with hat and tie.
Nrama: Is there a bigger threat at the heart of this story – beyond (or behind) Glenbrook U.S.A.?
Ewing: In a sense. Like I said, there's a twist at the heart of it all that will make old-time Marvelites chuckle (without excluding the new ones, of course). Some old Avengers friends, or foes, or somewhere in between, will be making a guest appearance. I'll look forward to what the message boards make of that tidbit - especially if they happen to guess right.
Nrama: After this story this Avengers squad is taking part in "Avengers: No Surrender." Al, what can you tell us about the U.S.Avengers involvement in that?
Ewing: They're reunited and it feels so good! They're all present, all correct, and all in for the fight of their lives. If "Cannonball Run" is the last wild, weird, only-the-U.S.-Avengers-could-do-it story of the run... "No Surrender" is when things get serious. It's the final stand. Not everyone's going to come out of it in one piece. U.S.Avengers fans are going to see their heroes hailed as Avengers, and prove themselves worthy of the name once and for all in the fiercest, toughest, bloodiest crucible they've ever had to face. We're going out standing tall, standing proud, and with a little of our signature flair.
Credit: Paco Diaz (Marvel Comics)
Nrama: It hasn't been revealed how the individual Avengers titles will function once "No Surrender" is done, but will either of you play a part in telling the next stories for these characters?
Ewing: I do have a project leading out of "No Surrender". That's all I'll say until the time is right.
Nrama: Before we get to "No Surrender," what can you tell readers about what's coming in the apparent U.S.Avengers finale?
Ewing: What isn't coming? Robots, wiseguys, typical teenagers, X-Men, bits of X-Men, space people, rocket legs, gravity balls, the terrible secret of Bugface Brown, soda shops, exploding report cards, heart problems, and - if I can fit it in there - the U.S.Avengers soundtrack. Oh, and if you're curious about that bloody crucible I mentioned... we drop a little hint you might not want to miss. Miss it never, true believer!

Who Killed Kyoto?
Iain Murray • 05/20/2003
We've heard it now for so long that it's drummed into our heads. President George W. Bush soured relations with the EU by refusing to accept the Kyoto Protocol. In doing so, he took the <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />U.S. into unilateralism and demonstrated his disdain for world opinion. That's what is at the root of the current divide between Europe and America. We're hearing that argument trotted out by various contenders for the Democratic presidential nomination, most notably Senators Joe Lieberman and John Kerry.The trouble is, it just isn't true. The Kyoto treaty was killed in November 2000, during the dying days of the Clinton-Gore administration. We didn't notice in the United States because something else was going on at that time. This is also why we didn't notice that it wasn't the Americans who killed it. It was the Europeans, most prominently (surprise, surprise) the French. How did this happen? Back in 2000, there was a general agreement among governments that Kyoto was a good thing. This was certainly the opinion of the Clinton administration, despite the Byrd-Hagel resolution (Senate Resolution 98) passed by the Senate in 1997, that Kyoto would be harmful to the economy of the United States and was flawed in its failure to restrict the emissions of developing nations. Nevertheless, the United States, along with Australia, Canada and Japan, argued that carbon sinks—the natural forests and greenery that hungrily absorb so much of the carbon dioxide emitted all over the world – should be taken into account when working out emissions targets. The fact is that, while the North American continent emits about 1.6 billion metric tons of carbon every year, North American carbon sinks actually absorb 1.7 billion tons of atmospheric carbon every year. North America is therefore a net consumer of carbon dioxide. The same is not true of the European nations, who essentially see their emissions cleaned up by North American or other carbon sinks. They were not keen to see carbon sinks counted in the equation when they had none to count themselves, despite the fact that the European targets under Kyoto were less stringent than those imposed on other industrialized nations. The various sides in the argument came together in November 2000 at The Hague in the Netherlands to sort out their differences. Frank Loy, the chief negotiator for the Clinton-Gore team, acted swiftly to try to compromise. He dropped the previous American stance of demanding that developing nations commit themselves to "meaningful" involvement in the Kyoto process. He told the conference: "It's time now that we commit ourselves to a pragmatic, not a dogmatic approach. We're past the time for rhetoric—we need give and take. The U.S. has shown flexibility." But as the U.S. position softened, and the United Kingdom—true believers in the Kyoto process—tried to broker a deal, the position of "Old Europe" hardened. French President Jacques Chirac in particular took up a radical stance, telling delegates "France proposes that we set as our ultimate objective the convergence of per capita emissions." This idea is based on the theory that everyone in the world should have the right to emit carbon in equal amounts—so requiring a vast decrease in the amount emitted by industrialized nations and a massive increase in the amount emitted by the Third World. Chirac admitted that Kyoto therefore represented "the first component of an authentic global governance." If this process sounds familiar, it should. French intransigence caused the U.K.-brokered deal to allow progress on Kyoto to collapse. British Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott blamed continental European politicians in no uncertain terms: "It failed in the European area. There comes a time when politicians have to use their own guts, their own judgment." European ministers should have taken a chance and made the change, he said. "That's what I decided to do and everyone was with us until we got into those Euro ministers and they split."<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
Even the environmental groups blamed the Europeans. According to the BBC, the National Environmental Trust said: "The Hague was likely to have been the European nations' best opportunity to achieve a strong climate treaty, and they decided to pass it up. After January, they could face a Bush administration almost certain to push for bigger loopholes. There is no excuse for having walked away." By refusing to countenance any compromise on Kyoto at The Hague, the French and their allies essentially killed the treaty, two months before President Bush took office. Whenever anyone blames the President for rifts with Europe over the environment, these particular events of November 2000 need to be remembered.


I made a size medium and could probably have made a small on top and medium over the hips. I took 3" off and it is still fairly long!!
"Close fitting tops have asymmetrical front neckline finished with facings, front shoulder insert with gathers, and gathers on left front"
Kwik Sew instructions are always good, but I did not use them.
1. Sewed shoulder inserst piece to back , sewed front to back on OTHER shoulder - stablised the seam - I used cotton tape but I should have used clear elastic.
"It's easiest to stabilize the hems before assembling the garment. Prepare the hems by pressing them into place (I use an oak-tag template). Cut 1/2-in.-wide strips of soft, all-bias knit fusible interfacing like SofKnit. Sew or serge the right side of a strip to the wrong side of the hem edge (adhesive side is up). After constructing the garment, fold the hem up, fuse it in place, and topstitch from the right side.
Yes I will sew it again and I would recommend it. However when I sew it again I will probably make a small on top and a medium over the hips, as it did seem to come up large - slides off my shoulders.... I also need to ensure that I stretch the bias facing on the back neckline to ensure it does not gap.
Nice top which I will make again in a smaller size. Might put in more gathers at the front as I think it needs more to make them look like they are supposed to be there,!
I sew for myself and my family and sometimes for friends..

Maria Augusta Trapp discusses the importance of dancing as a universal language and contrasts traditional folk dancing with modern American dancing.
Coming from Austria to America meant coming from a country known from time immemorial as "the land of dancers and fiddlers," a country that had brought forth not only hundreds of most picturesque folk dances, but also that world-wide favorite, the Viennese waltz — to the country that had given to the world jazz music and the dancing that goes with it. Needless to say, we soon found ourselves engulfed in endless discussions on the subject of folk dancing versus modern ballroom dancing.
Many times we were told: "But is not jazz America's popular music and true `folk dance'?"
Here is my answer: Most of the so-called popular music of America certainly does not come from the people. Rather, far removed from any creative contact with this earth of ours, it is composed in some New York skyscraper; it is propagated by modern means of mass propaganda, radio and television, to a nation of one hundred and sixty millions; and upon the appearance of its successor, completely forgotten and lost.
And now let us take a look at the people who dance in the bars and nightclubs and dance halls. In the first part of the evening there prevails an air of sophistication which shows in facial expressions of bored indifference. As the evening progresses, however, the low rumbling of the rhythm seems to increase and to win out over the poverty of the melodies. And then something like a trance takes hold of the dancers as they trip around and slur and wiggle, hypnotized by the suggestive sound of the jazz orchestra.
As one looks down from a gallery on one of the modern dance halls, one is struck by something else — a picture of utter chaos. There is no pattern of movement relating the dancing couples; each pair seems alone on its narrow piece of floor, busy only with itself, with no thought for the others. The red or purple twilight mercifully conceals what could easily be read on the dancers' faces; for we must not forget that the dance is a universal language, just like music; as it involves the whole body, it has a depth and wealth of expression which surpasses by far the language of words.
It is high time for all Christian parents to wake up and see what has become of modern ballroom dancing. I say on purpose ballroom dancing. At the time when I was quite young, or when our mothers "came out," there existed ballroom dancing too, as distinct from folk dancing. But at that time the waltz, the minuet, the Rhinelander and polka, the quadrille, gallop, and mazurka held the place taken today by jazz and jitterbug. Each nation added one or two favorite national dances, Austria the "Laendler," Sweden the "Hombo," Jugoslavia the "Kolo," Hungaria the "Czardas." How could one single generation have been so careless as to lose all these precious goods which had enriched the lives of many generations?
The last years, however, seem to have brought about a reaction. In French Canada there is the beginning of a movement aimed to reintroduce folk dancing to young people. In America the English and Irish square dances are becoming increasingly popular, and all over the country little groups seriously interested in the folk dances of many nations are forming. We were surprised to find on the West Coast even more interest in folk dancing than in the East.
We have always enjoyed our inheritance of Austrian folk dances. As we started touring all over Europe we exchanged our own national dances for those of the country whose guests we were. So it comes that we have a large collection of European folk dances which we brought home from our travels. From the very beginning of our summer Music Camp, folk dancing has been an integral part of our evening entertainment. It was always a joy and a rewarding happiness to see how everybody took to it enthusiastically. One difficulty is usually the music. One should realize from the very beginning that record players are not the right accompaniment for folk dancing. They are too mechanical, too rigid. People simply have to learn to play instruments again accordion and guitar, fiddle and clarinet, or the recorder, the ancient flute that is gaining so many new friends today.
One thing is sure people have always danced, and always will. By experience we have learned that it is not enough to criticize an existing system; one should rather supplant it with a better one, overcome the evil with the good. Parents might get interested in the nearest folk dancing group, join in their evenings, learn the dances, read about them, learn to play the dances on simple instruments and then introduce them in their own homes. With these folk dances, old and new, and the ballroom dances of our own youth, we shall be able to enjoy many a happy evening together with our families.
One more thing needs to be said here there are times when dancing is allowed and times when dancing is forbidden "All things have their season. . . . There is a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn, and a time to dance" (Ecclesiastes 2:1-4). This also has become forgotten, and dances in parish halls on Saturday evenings during Advent and Lent are not infrequent. Again, we have to wake up from our sleep, or shall we call it stupor, and look to our Christian inheritance in order to learn when we should dance and when not. Then, in spite of "but everybody does it," we shall act accordingly. It may not always be easy to be a true Christian, but it brings inner happiness — that kind of happiness which is the result of a sacrifice cheerfully brought — the happiness the children of the world ignore.


Among one of the most sought after destinations for adventure holidays is the north western African state of Morocco. There are good reasons why holidaymakers are flocking to cities like Fes and Merzouga to see the wondrous sands of the Sahara.
Many tourists tend to book Marrakech desert tours which pick up from the city and transport adventurous types to the Dades, deserts and the magical sands of the golden desert. The landscape is also varied and beautiful. The High Atlas mountain range offers a real spectacle and an opportunity to take some memorable photos. There will be many an occasion where you'll feel as though you've taken a step back in time.
There are a number of adventure holidays that will transport you from your city base and take you to the Mecca of the West. A desert tour from Marrakech to Fes is the zenith of all Morocco desert tours. Fes is the second largest city in Morocco and is situated in the north but well inland.
It features several madrasas, forts and Kasbahs. Some of which are so popular and beautiful, the structures have been allocated a UNESCO World Heritage Site status. The tanning industry thrives in Fes and no visit here would be complete without a visit to one of the many tanneries the city has to offer.
Morocco desert tours just do not get much better than this. The old city, or Old Medina, is a place to behold. Several traditional inns still exist here today and serve as a place to stay for weary travellers. A tradition that has been going on for more than 2,000 years.
During an adventure on the popular Desert tour from Marrakech to Fes, one is likely to experience the inner beauty and awe of the Middle Atlas Mountains. There will be many Berber villages, most of which appear to have been frozen in time. The Medina of Fes is an historic site in itself. Built around the 8th century and still retaining that ancient feel, the Medina is a cultural heritage place that will leave you inspired and fulfilled.
Merzouga desert tours are fast becoming a popular way of seeing the desert region of Morocco up close and personal. Day trips are very special and quickly sell out due to the close proximity to Erg Chebbi. Merzouga desert tours can include camel riding, a chance to see the Moroccan Kasbahs or stop off at the special souk of Ait Ben Haddou.
As desert tours go, a visit to the Dades Valley in Morocco is sublime to put it mildly. It is the major route between the trading places of the ancient villages and the desert. Huge towering palm trees spill over the cliff edges of the mountainous canyons, gentle streams meander through the valley floor and the dramatic Todra Gorge will leave you totally breathless. The Dades Valley can easily be reached from the cities of Ouarzazate and Marrakech inside a day and excursions here are ones that will never be forgotten. The Dades Valley is suitable for leisurely travellers and adventurous types alike.

building HEALTHY building(s): PhilaU Places 5 in the top 10 Finalists in International Student Competition
Photo courtesy of Schüco.
Architecture students from Philadelphia University took five of the top ten spots in the building Healthy building(s) competition. The student competition was conducted as a precursor to an upcoming conference of the same name. Sponsored by Schüco, the conference will be conducted in Bielefeld, Germany, May 23-24, 2017. The program will involve speakers, expert panels, workshops, and student presentations, with the proceedings to be published in book form. The event is a continuation of an educational initiative championed by Prof. Dr.-Ing Winfried Heusler of Schüco. Heusler is also an honorary professor of facade design and technology at the University of Applied Sciences in Detmold, Germany. Prior events include the Future City 2050 symposium in 2015.
The competition brief solicited entries addressing one of three topical areas: 1-healthy building process (along the entire value chain); 2-healthy buildings (that promote health and well-being for occupants and urban habitat); and 3-healthcare buildings (that restore and maintain human health). The strong PhilaU showing in the student competition is the product of an amplified focus on building facade technology brought to the four Architecture Programs by its director, James Doerfler. We are excited to be bringing emphasis to the facade system as an integrative element in sustainable buildings and urban habitat," commented Doerfler," and this international recognition is good feedback for us on the value we are building with this educational effort."
An advanced degree program in facade design and engineering is not yet available from any North American university, but Doerfler and others are working in that direction with the support of Heusler and colleagues at Detmold, as well as other industry and educational groups, like the Facade Tectonics Institute, which counts education as a core component of its mission. Mic Patterson, the Ambassador of Collaboration and Innovation for the Institute, claims grounds for optimism, "There is currently an unprecedented level of discourse and cooperation between industry and academic groups from both Europe and North America in developing appropriate curricula and course content for advanced facade degree programs. It's an exciting time." Europe continues to lead the way in advanced facade technology education. Augsburg University, for example, is offering a unique concentrated facade program aimed at practicing professionals. The program is comprised of 2-weeks of onsite lectures and workshops—a week in May and a week in June, separated by a month of self-paced home study. The program boasts an impressive lineup of lecturers, including Dr. Heusler, Andrea Compagno, James O'Callaghan, Werner Sobek, and Aulikki Sonntag. More on the program can be found here.
The Philadelphia University students, along with the other top 10 finalists, will receive a subsidized trip to Germany, where the winners of the competition will be announced and the winning entries presented.

Welcome here! I want to show you the Types of Sentences in English with Definitions and Examples. The sentence is the largest grammatical unit there is in the English. Sentences comprise clauses and clauses comprise phrases or groups. Groups or phrases comprises words while words comprise morphemes. The morpheme is the smallest indivisible but meaningful grammatical unit we have in English.
There are ways in which sentences in English have been arranged. The roles sentences play in utterance determines their arrangements; this arrangement has to do with types of sentences based on function. Another way we organize English sentences is on the basis of their structure or the way they appear; this is types of sentences based on structure.
The sentence in English has various definitions but we shall examine it from four different perspectives. These include: the orthographic, semantic, grammatical or syntactic and the phonological levels. At the orthographic level, we can describe the simple sentence as a group of words that is usually marked in writing by the following punctuation marks: question mark, full stop, exclamation mark or in some cases semi-colon. From the semantic level, a sentence is a group of words that must be meaningful in context.
In other words, a potentially complete stretch of utterance will be, as a whole utterance, meaningful within the situation in which it is uttered. At the grammatical level, we can define a sentence as a group of words that contains at least a predicator. The sentence is the largest unit of grammatical analysis as well as the upper limit of structural statement at the grammatical level. From the perspective of phonology, we can describe the simple sentence as a stretch of speech that one utters with a complete intonational tune preceded and followed by silence. (See the post on Definitions and Constituents of the Simple Sentence).
A fragmentary sentence is an incomplete statement, or phrase or a subordinate clause punctuated as a complete sentence. A fragmentary sentence is one that is fragmented; that is it consists of fragments; it comprises broken off and detached parts. It occurs in our speech where it makes sense as responses to what someone has said or as addition to what we have already said.
In other words, it is a sentence that that expresses a thought or idea that is not complete. A sentence is fragmented also, when major syntactic elements of the sentence are missing. A fragmentary sentence is likely to be a fragmentary idea to be finished or added to another idea and we can correct it by joining it to another sentence or by supplying the subject and a predicator; that is, converting it to a full sentence.
Despite missing out on the major constituents that make up a grammatical sentence, a fragmentary sentence is not wrong or ungrammatical. Some scholars refer to a fragmentary sentence as sentence fragments, minor clause or abbreviated clause. Fragmentary sentences could also manifest as phrases, incomplete clauses, dependent clauses or as standalone sentences.
A simple sentence consist of only on main, alpha or independent clause. A main clause is one that can stand on its dependent counterpart, the subordinate clause. The arrangement of the simple sentence encompasses syntactic elements such as the subject, the predicator, the complement and the adjunct. But the only compulsory element of these four is the predicator. The length of a sentence has nothing to do with its classification as a simple sentence. That a sentence is short does not necessarily qualify it as a simple sentence. A sentence could be short and not be a simple sentence while another may be very long and still be a simple sentence. (See more on Types of Sentences According to Structure).
I am constrained to make this an open letter to you for a number of reasons.
And no group solely by itself can crown any of its members the Nigerian CEO.
It is now not a matter of the turn of any section or geographical area but the best interest of Nigeria and all Nigerians.
An interrogative sentence, based on its name, is a sentence that interrogates. In other words, it asks different types of questions and a question mark usually follows it. Check the post on Types of Sentences According to Functions for the possible types of questions an interrogative question asks.
Should we pursue war against violence without understanding the root causes of the violence?
What does the former president want?
Is he being recruited to do for you what he had done for the dictator in the past?
Where were they when God used others to achieve His will in your life?
You will be present when the award is given, won't you?
A compound-complex is a sentence contains two main clauses and one or more subordinate clauses. Both the coordinating conjunction and subordinating conjunction are present in this type of sentence.
I personally have done two out of those three sacrifices and I am ready to do the third if it will serve the best interest of Nigerian dream.
We incurred the displeasure of ethnic chauvinists for doing what was right for the country and that is in the nature of burden of leadership.
I have always retorted that God only put you where you are and those that could be regarded as having played a role were only instruments of God to achieve God's purpose in your life.
It would be unfair to continue to level full blames on the Chairman for all that goes wrong with the Party; the Chairman is playing the tune dictated by the Paymaster.
The type of sentence comprises three distinct main clauses which are independent of one another without any dependent clause.
We, as a Party, should applaud and commend him and Nigerians should reward and venerate him.
I cannot comment much on the constitutional aspect of your second term or what some people call third term but that is for both legal and judicial attention.
A leader must cherish and hold dear among others trust and honour; these are important ingredients of character and anyone in the Office of the Presidency of Nigeria must be a man or woman of honour in their words and character.
I kept you fully briefed at every stage and I deliberately chose the venue and your aides studied all the recordings of the two nights.
A minor sentence expresses a complete unit of meaning albeit without the presence of a verb; that is it omits one of the structural elements like the subject, predicator, or even complement. Check out the post dedicated to Minor Sentence for more explanations on its definitions, types and examples.
This is just an extension of the multiple sentence with the addition of at least, one subordinate clause. In other words, it is a sentence that has at least three main clauses and at least, one dependent clause.
For five capacities in which you find yourself, you must hold yourself most significantly responsible for what happens or fails to happen in Nigeria and in any case, most others will hold you responsible and God who put you there will surely hold you responsible and accountable.
I have seen them with you and some were around me when I was in your position and I knew how not to allow them create enemies for me because if you allow them, everybody except them will be your enemy..
Those positions go with being the President of our country and while depending on your disposition, you can delegate or devolve responsibility, but the buck must stop on your table whether you like it or not.
I worked for them because they could strengthen the unity, stability and democracy in Nigeria and we incurred the displeasure of ethnic chauvinists for doing what was right for the country but that is in the nature of burden of leadership.
This sentence, among other things it does, makes a statement, states fact, expresses hope, wish or prayer, informs, supplies ideas, educates and declares as the name goes.
It happened in Lagos in 2011 when he was nocturnally brought to Abuja to strike a deal to support your personal election.
I wish to see no more bloodshed occasioned by politics in Nigeria.
You can do it and I plead that you do it.
A compound sentence comprises two independent clauses with no subordinate clause. That is, the two clauses that make up a compound sentence are main or alpha clauses which can stand on their own separately from the coordinating conjunction that joins them. (See Coordinators and their Semantic Implications).
These dangerous emotive issues can ignite uncontrollable passion and can destabilise our dear country.
Let me appeal to those who have embarked on this dangerous road to reflect and desist from taking us on a perishable journey.
One of the truest test of integrity is its blunt refusal to be compromised (Chinua Achebe) and it is lesson for all leaders, you and me inclusive.
I spoke to you at that time and there was in addition evidence of cover-up and non-prosecution of fraud of fake security report against the other candidate and his collaborators.
When one gives a command, instruction and order, an imperative sentence is what results. It ranges from a mild order to a harsh order or command. In imperative sentences, the subject is usually absent and the sentence begins with an imperative verb.
Answer one question from each section of your examination.
Leave the city at one!
Follow the path to your destination.
The current situation and consequent possible outcome dictate that I should, before the door closes on reason and promotion of national interest, alert you to the danger that may be lurking in the corner.
We must move away from advertently or inadvertently dividing the country along weak seams of North-South and Christian-Moslem.
Some of our international friends and development partners are genuinely worried about signs and signals that are coming out of Nigeria.
I am concerned about your legacy and your climb-down which you alone can best be the manager of, whenever you so decide.
If I could get there and if Jonathan can get there, any Nigerian can.
This is a sentence that shows emotions such as surprise, excitement, anger, joy, pain and other forms of emotions. The exclamation mark usually follows an exclamatory sentence. We do not normally use the mark in formal writing; and a period does not immediately precede or follow the mark.
How good and pleasant it is for brothers to dwell together in unity!
How lovely upon the mountains are the feet of those who speak good tidings!
What a beautiful smile the baby has got!
This post has explained all the possible types of sentences in English; and it is important for students of English, or anyone who loves to be sound in the knowledge of English, to be versatile in the use of these types of sentences, as circumstances may require.

Iran is planning on launching its first satellite early next year. And it's not so the mullahs can catch the Knicks game or HBO Latino.Tehran is planning on using an upgraded version of its ballistic missile, the Shahab-3, to get the satellite into orbit. And this "first Iranian space mission and planned follow-on satellite flights, even if failures, could act as 'technological Trojan Horses' to help Iran develop both range and warhead improvements to [Iran's] already upgraded [missile] program," according to Aviation Week. "In addition, some materials and micro-electronic technologies necessary for Iranian satellite design could be important for the development of tiny, high-quality components needed to produce small nuclear weapons."
An upgraded version of the Shahab-3--flight tested 3-4 times between July and October--already seems to be proving modifications indicative of a vehicle being groomed to carry a nuclear warhead.U.S. Air Force Defense Support Program (DSP) missile warning spacecraft and other U.S. and Israeli assets closely monitored the recent, aggressive Iranian flight tests that flew ranges of 1,500-2,000 km. (930-1,240 mi.).At nearly 60 ft. long, the upgraded Shahab-3 carries about 15% more propellant and has a more bulbous nose (see photo). This indicates a different reentry vehicle design similar to that used on the Russian SS-9 ICBM.The new design appears to be a warhead capable of carrying an avionics unit on separation from the booster--a design that could enable air-burst nuclear weapons fusing during reentry...'Developing [further Shahab upgrades] under the guise of a space launch vehicle could permit Iran to avoid the possible political and economic costs of missile testing,' the Congressional Research Service found in a recent report.

story from Tech
Russia Seizes Bitcoin Mining Equipment in Incident at China Border
Oct 6, 2014 at 21:33 UTC Updated Oct 7, 2014 at 15:57 UTC
Pete Rizzo
Russian authorities confiscated four bitcoin mining machines from an unidentified citizen last week at a security checkpoint located on its southern border with China.
A report from the Siberian Customs Department suggests that the individual attempted to bring "four undeclared metal objects", later identified as ROCKMINER R4 units, through a customs checkpoint at the Manzhouli Sino-Russian Inter-Trade Tourist Area.
However, the bitcoin miner failed to provide the necessary documentation or pay required fees for doing so.
The customs officers evoked a 2012 decision issued by the Board of Eurasian Economic Commission to validate the confiscation. The decision, amended in 2013 and 2014, governs the import and export of encryption facilities to and from Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan, all of which are members of one customs agreement.
Despite the increasingly stern stance Russia has taken toward its domestic bitcoin industry in recent weeks, the incident appears to be unrelated to the country's proposed ban of "monetary surrogates". Further, it does not suggest a more immediate crackdown on bitcoin's domestic mining industry and community.
The draft bill, first announced in August, garnered even more headlines internationally last week as Russian lawmakers revealed the full text of the proposed law. If passed, the law would apply to virtually all of the country's industry, from individual bitcoin miners to bitcoin businesses and even news sites.
In addition to the loss of the mining units, the unidentified miner also faces potential fines, as the Siberian Customs Department indicated it has initiated administrative proceedings in the developing case.
Russian community reacts
Due to initial confusion surrounding the news, there was speculation on Russian bitcoin blogs that the incident was perhaps part of a more immediate crackdown by the local government on bitcoin activities.
Russian-language bitcoin news blog Coinside.ru, for example, wrote in its report that the news could be seen as "the start of the practical part of the Russian campaign against bitcoin".
However, Artem Tolkachev, managing partner at the law firm Tolkachev & Partners disagreed with this interpretation, noting that the initial news release suggests mining equipment is simply subject to the same special customs regulations as all types of encrypted materials.
"The document makes no special reference to the mining equipment, but it divides the encryption facilities into different groups and establishes the order of import and export," Tolkachev told CoinDesk.
Mining imports still possible
In absence of the formal approval of the draft bill banning bitcoin activities, Tolkachev asserted that, in his opinion, the import and export of bitcoin mining equipment is still legal in Russia provided the owner seeks a one-time license from the Ministry of Industry and Trade.
Still, the procedures required could prove to be a deterrent to local mining operators, especially in light of potential forthcoming regulation.
Tolkachev said:
"To get [a one-time license], one needs to present an application for a license, a copy of the equipment purchase contract, a copy of the certificate of registration with the tax authorities, license to conduct the activity (if needed), authorisation of the Federal Security Service (FSB), the description of all encryption facilities that the imported equipment contains."
Further, he said this procedure must be completed in 90 days, but that in some cases, only approval from the FSB is needed.
Tolkachev provides legal consultation to a number of regional startups, though he says most are now turning focus away from the Russian market in light of recent events.

More to reform than just amalgamations - WSROC
Media Release September 8, 2014
The Western Sydney Regional Organisation of Councils has urged the government to undertake proper detailed surveys of council finances before forcing amalgamations to ensure genuine benefits and not rely on outdated and discredited Treasury Corp figures.
WSROC President Tony Hadchiti said the re-issue of the Treasury Corp figures, which were widely discredited when they were first released in April 2013, shows the Government is likely to push ahead with amalgamations as part of their response to the Independent local Government Review Panel.
"WSROC believes that the issue of amalgamations should be up to the individual councils," he said. "If they are to go ahead they should be shown to be of benefit to those councils and more importantly their residents and ratepayers.
"However, using these outdated and arbitrary Treasury Corp figures to justify mergers is potentially disastrous.
"As was widely reported at the time, the figures used to assess the financial status of Councils were not standardised and were subject to arbitrary calculations which did not take into account the individual circumstances of each council."
"If you merge two small underperforming councils then you end up with one big underperforming council."
"Some councils may have a lot of money in the bank but their infrastructure backlog is huge. Others may be in debt but their infrastructure is state of the art.
"If you merge these two councils you end up with one big council with both debt and an infrastructure backlog. That would be a disaster."
Clr Hadchiti said there had to be more to successful reform than simply forcing small councils to become big councils.
"Big doesn't necessarily mean better," he said. "If the Government is serious about creating genuine partnerships between State and Local Governments then they need to take into account local issues, proper resourcing - including a review of infrastructure provision and rate capping – and ensure that any changes are designed to improve efficiency and service delivery, not just amalgamations for the sake of it.
"We would urge the Government to undertake a new review, using agreed standards and weightings, in order to assess the genuine state of these councils before they proceed with amalgamations to ensure that they will provide genuine benefits," Clr Hadchiti said.

National Museum of Singapore calls for ideas
The National Museum of Singapore is asking the public to come up with ideas for projects on digital art and technology that could enhance visitors' experience. The public call is part of the museum's DigiMuse initiative, which hopes to nurture a cultural sector that embraces digital innovation. Launched last month, the programme wants to foster collaboration between the technology industry and the arts.
Announcing the news on Jan 29, the Museum mentioned that proposals should merge culture and immersive technology and focus on themes such as museology, heritage, research and the gallery experience.
There are two categories of ideas. The first is "museum experience" and the second one is "art and creatives".
The first category is aimed at the technology industry. Proposals should suggest how to transform the museum experience through technology while addressing current or anticipated gaps in how visitors enjoy exhibitions. Moreover, they should increase access to the museum's collections. For example, trackers could collect data on how visitors interact with exhibits, allowing the museum to better curate its exhibits. The cost of the projects should not be more than $20,000.
The second category, "art and creatives", is for artists and creators who want to use technology to express their art. An example of this could be film-makers who use virtual reality. Projects in this category should cost no more than $30,000.
Only Singaporean citizens and permanent residents can take part on this call and their proposals must be submitted by March 15. Selected projects will be announced in April and final entries will be showcased in August.
