A Story about Love and Change – .
The Antlers in my current centerpiece are from a brave and honorable deer from Nimmo, Arkansas. I cried the first time my hubs brought a dead, bloody deer home in the back of his truck. I was shocked, I suppose.
Oh, I had seen a few pheasants and a rabbit who had been shot by my father or my brother, but I never actually paid attention to what they did to those noble creatures slain by family members.
I told Mike I wanted the antlers, I NEEDED to have the antlers… Needed something of the poor, innocent creature that gave his life so men could have venison jerky and sausages. My husband just laughed. I wondered what kind of person I had married.
I have kept those very same antlers in honor of that first buck, for whom I wept so pitifully as a young bride!
How I have changed! It did not take long for me to adjust my thinking. You see, we made our home on the edge of the Wildlife Game Refuge off the famous Little Red River in Arkansas at the time. Our first home was a tiny homestead in the Village of Nimmo, which had been a Native American campground years ago.
Not only that, but I was surrounded by little hunting cottages and shacks, and every weekend, dozens of eager hunters arrived in four-wheel-drive trucks, with gun in hand. My morning alarm was the sound of gunshot in the woods at 5:30 am, and the proud killers of wildlife (in my mind, that was how I thought of them) were transformed (over time) into competitive, silly grown men in camouflage.
But those men were kind of sweet, and they were patient with me. Over time, my husband's hunting buddies would offer me a taste of their home-made deer sausage, duck dressing, or bear jerky. At first I refused, but not to be rejected, I decided to give it a whirl and try a bite. Before I knew it, I was trading recipes for Deer Chili, Duck Gumbo, and Pheasant Stew. My conversation changed from "How is your wife? " to "Is that white pepper I taste in your gumbo?" I realized that I had completely converted to "savage" when I eagerly volunteered to make Rabbit Stew for my son's 2nd grade class when they were studying the frontier life in History class.
Funny how life changes a person. But I still revere that first slain deer when I see those lovely antlers in my living room. I've heard it saidthat every end is a new beginning. Somehow that makes more sense when I think of that poor creature whose life ended so that I could have these antlers.

Leamington family organizes massive turkey giveaway
Provided by the Talking Over Turkey Facebook page.
By Maureen Revait December 12, 2019 4:05am
A Leamington family is giving away over 600 turkeys to families in Essex County this Saturday.
Mike Diab and his wife have organized the 'Talking Over Turkey" giveaway event for the last three years. It started with just 50 turkeys and grew from there.
"It's really a culmination of a lot of months work and food product that was donated to my wife and I and many volunteers to disperse throughout the County of Essex. We're really excited about it," said Diab
The turkeys, along with a box of groceries and produce, will be given out on a first-come, first-serve basis at the Highbury Canco parking lot starting at 11 a.m. Saturday, December 14, 2019.
"There's no strings attached. We don't need registration or validation and it's open to all who can benefit from a turkey," said Diab.
All of the food donated this year came from local farmers and producers. The turkeys were purchased at a negotiated rate with Belwood Produce in Amherstburg and food was donated by Highbury Canco, Sunbrite Canning, Nature Fresh, and Mucci Farms along with some local grocery stores.
Diab said the giveaway started as a way for him and his wife to pay it forward and he hopes the event helps spread the spirit of giving.
"Maybe one day they can find a way to pay it forward as well. That's really what we're trying to perpetuate, it's just a large scale pay it forward to those that can when they can," said Diab.
For more information on the giveaway and community partners visit the Talking over Turkey Facebook page.

Дави́д Я́ковлевич А́йзман (, Николаев — 26 сентября 1922, Детское Село) — русский прозаик и драматург.

Биография
Родился в еврейской семье. Отец его, торговец по роду занятия, был любителем и хорошим знатоком книг, автором нескольких статей в еврейских газетах. В доме часто говорили о Бокле, Бюхнере, цитировали Писарева. Один из братьев — писатель Моисей Айзман, владевший в Николаеве книжной лавкой и читальней и одно время редактировавший местную либеральную газету «Южанин».

Давид Яковлевич окончил Николаевское реальное училище (1886), учился в Одесской рисовальной школе, с 1896 года в Парижской высшей школе изобразительных искусств. По возвращении в Россию, не имея постоянного «права на жительство», скитался, а для пребывания в Петербурге использовал фиктивный патент приказчика. В 1907 году уехал в Италию, два года спустя вернулся в Россию.

Похоронен на Казанском кладбище в Детском Селе.

Творчество
С конца 1880-х годов печатал очерки и рассказы в газете «Южанин» и «Одесском вестнике». Подлинным дебютом считал очерк «Немножечко в сторону» («Русское богатство», 1901, № 5) о судьбе типичного еврейского идеалиста. Первый сборник «Чёрные дни» вышел в 1904 году (издательство «Русское богатство», СПб.).

В период 1905—1907 годов примыкал к писателям-реалистам, связанным со сборниками «Знание». Часто обращался к общерусской, нееврейской тематике. Однако внимание Айзмана привлекала прежде всего еврейская среда; его повести и рассказы: «Ледоход», «Чёрные дни» (1904), «Кровавый разлив» (1908), «Враги», «Светлый бог» и другие — беллетристическая интерпретация так называемого «еврейского вопроса» (бесправное положение евреев в Российской империи, их взаимоотношения с окружающим населением и т. д.), выдержанная в либерально-народническом духе.

Обычный герой его произведений — ассимилированный еврей-интеллигент в непростых отношениях и с еврейской, и с русской средой. Специфически айзмановским считается характерный образ русского еврея в эмиграции, страдающего от ностальгии и мечтающего о возвращении на родину.

Айзман по ряду признаков был близок к группе писателей (самым ярким её представителем является С. Юшкевич), которая разрабатывала условный «русско-еврейский» стиль, стремясь оттенить строй еврейской речи. Он мастерски воспроизводил русскую речь полуобразованного, ещё не вполне освоившегося в русской языковой среде еврея. Критики называли Айзмана «специалистом по еврейскому вопросу» и «еврейским Чеховым».

Автор трагедии «Терновый куст» (1905), пьесы «Жёны» (1906), пьесы-сказки «Светлый бог» (1914), комедии «Консул Гранат» (1923).

Joe Hart has had a terrible week.
A week is putting it mildly. Criticism has followed Hart since the beginning of the year, whether he has been playing for City or appearing on the international scene as England's supposed number one goalkeeper.
His determination to charge out of his goal has led to a series of Youtube-worthy howlers, and with City needing every point available to make a challenge for the title, Hart has become too much of a liability.
Hart's poor form has reached a breaking point and enough is enough.
There was once a cockiness about Hart: a self-assurance in his game that made him England's first choice goalkeeper. It may have been this complacency that led to his downturn in form.
There has been no real challenge for Hart's position, either domestic or internationally. Only a year after his international debut he was being touted as the next England captain. There was a sense that he could do no wrong.
So when the first errors began to creep into Hart's game, it was almost seen as acceptable. No-one can be 100% all of the time; Hart should be cut some slack; his past performances were strong enough to justify his place for the conceivable future.
Not anymore. Hart's poor form is costing City dearly. He has become a victim of his own talent.
Manuel Pellegrini has attempted to introduce a more attacking dimension to City's football, yet City have made five errors this season which have led directly to goals – errors which a keeper should be stopping from happening.
Hart is fundamentally a confidence player. The deterioration of his relationship with Roberto Mancini towards the end of last season – Hart said that Mancini's criticism of him made him feel he wasn't 'up to the job' – showed in Hart's on-field performances and a strained relationship with Pellegrini will hardly have helped Hart's woes.
Keeping Hart in the starting line-up will do little for anyone's confidence, least of all Hart. Hart must know that he is down on form. Why keep making him play when everyone, including the man himself, is watching and waiting for the mistake to come?
Pellegrini wants to win matches. The fans want to win matches. Hart too must want his club to win matches. If he continues to play in this form then it will do nothing for his confidence. While he has been accused of arrogance, that arrogance almost certainly leant something to his game.
City's problem is the lack of a quality reserve goalkeeper. There is no Joe Hart, mark two.
Costel Pantilimon was harshly dropped after playing the majority of the FA Cup campaign and was then left on the bench for the final.
Normally, Pantilimon is not a major threat to Hart's place, but with Hart playing the way he is, Pantilimon is the best option City has.
Hart needs time away to regain his confidence – put the Head and Shoulders adverts to one side and regain the swagger that made him the best goalkeeper in the Premier League.

==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build oxygen-cursors-extra.
I'm not sure that it's necessary. The package isn't updated very often. Once it's installed, you're pretty much all set.
Plus, I would need to host an ~11 MiB file somewhere (fast). By comparison, the source tarball is only ~4 MiB and no hosting is necessary.
Ensure that the 'MAKEFLAGS' variable in the "/etc/makepkg.conf" file is set correctly so that you're using all CPU cores when building.
Is it possible there can be a pre-built variant of this package? I could build Chromium faster than the time it takes to build this icon pack. This is madness.
I don't see Qt in the list of dependencies. Inkscape and the others are only needed during the building process: you can uninstall them afterwards.
Excellent! Thanks for packaging this!

LAFARGE have signed a partnership agreement with the US start-up firm Solidia Technologies to industrialize an innovative technology that could reduce the environmental footprint of precast concrete.
The technology allows reduced CO2 emissions in the cement production process, and involves the capture of CO2 in precast concrete manufacturing.
Overall, CO2 emissions could be reduced by up to 70%, say Lafarge.
As part of the agreement, Lafarge will work with Solidia to demonstrate the feasibility of commercial-scale production in the first half of 2014.
The two companies will then collaborate to market this technology as a new solution for the precast sector.
Lafarge have been working for more than 20 years to reduce their environmental footprint and in particular, their CO2 emissions. These have been reduced by nearly 25% per tonne of cement since 1990.

More passengers but profits fall at CalMac
David MacBrayne, parent company of CalMac Ferries, has reported another year of increasing passenger numbers with the total carryings for the group breaking through the 5.5 million barrier for 2017/18.
CalMac Ferries' passenger numbers jumped by more than 200,000 over the year to 5.3 million while the group's other ferry operator, Argyll Ferries, carried nearly 300,000 on the Gourock to Dunoon route over the same period. Vehicle traffic increased 5 per cent to 1.4 million while freight increased 1.4 per cent to 940,000 metres carried over the same period.
Revenues climbed £15 million to £210 million delivering a profit of £4 million for the year, down from £5.3 million last year. The drop in profit was down to increased costs in planned and unplanned vessel maintenance.
'The focus of the past year has been to continue putting customers and communities at the heart of what we do and using our services and influence to actively drive sustainability and economic growth,' said David MacBrayne's chairman, David McGibbon.
It was a successful first year of operations for CalMac's new independent Community Board which seeks to improve communications with local communities and provide greater insight and focus into the type of services that island communities need over the long term.
'We are continuing to work to improve communication with all our customers including the launch of a new Integrated Operations Communications Centre. This will significantly enhance our ability to respond quickly to customers, with better levels of consistency and frequency during periods of disruption,' added Mr McGibbon.

"I have a lot of relationships with underclassmen so hopefully they will use my attributes and wisdom in the following years" - Bri Rodriguez
Riley Goodfellow, Editorial Editor
Filed under Feature
Five model students have been nominated to be Stallion of the Year, but only one winner will be announced at senior awards night May 24.
The senior candidates are Brent Archiniega, Christian Waizinger, Brianna Rodriguez, Juan Galindo, and Kate Finman. They were nominated by their teachers in a school-wide poll of teachers.
Archiniega has been heavily involved in the Drama and Theatre Department as well as ASB. He also is a Link Crew leader and a tutoring center advisor for National Honors Society (NHS).
"I try to be respectful in class. I really try to affect people and make changes in their lives and some teachers have told me that I have changed their lives with my positive attitude and I always try to make them laugh," said Archiniega.
He wishes for his legacy to come from his kind personality. "I want to be known as the guy everyone can say 'Hi' to," he said.
Waizinger has also been involved in Theatre and ASB for his entire high school career as well as Comedy Sports, Basketball, and Track and Field. He has taken over ten AP courses and can be found attending several other on campus clubs.

"I really love SJHHS, I really love my class, and I've always been very proud, very blessed, and very, very happy to have had the high school experience I've had," said Waizinger. "These past two years especially one of the things I've really tried to push is helping everyone else have that same high school experience."
He really hopes to have created a school that future Stallions can be proud of and to continue the experience that he has had for others.
Finman is highly involved at SJHHS as well. She is a part of Orchestra, Newspaper, Girl Scouts, MUN, Tennis, and is president of the NHS club.
"I want my legacy to be that students can do everything they want to and set their minds to. I also want students to know that they have a voice and have power, even as students," said Finman.
Rodriguez is the current ASB president and is involved in Big Brother Big Sister Club, California Scholarship Federation, and is the Young Authors Club president. She also wrote a book and has been the Commissioner of Publicity for NHS for the past two years.
"I have a lot of relationships with underclassmen so hopefully they will use my attributes and wisdom in the following years" said Rodriguez. "I wrote an ASB Bible that in the next years students can look back to… because I don't want to leave with the school not being able to get better."
Rodriguez said "I feel like I've been very respectful and I try to keep relationships with my teachers as best as possible."
Galindo is a student very involved in Dual Immersion being the president of the Two Way Immersion Club as well as being part of the schools Newspaper, Orchestra, Link Crew, and WASC.

Juan wishes to continue a legacy of inclusiveness at SJHHS. "My legacy will be that we continue to foster an environment where everyone feels welcomed and close enough to their peers, a true community where no one is left out or judged for being different. I have friends in every single friend group at this school that I almost serve as a bridge that helps connect others in different groups" said Galindo.
"It is an honor to be nominated even if I don't win," said Galindo.

Q: Android - SQLite I am trying to build an app that will use an SQLite database. My question is once the database is created, will all data still be there once the app is closed, i.e.: the database won't be overwritten when the app is restarted?

A: You, as a developer are the only one who have access to this database, thus it is only your code which will be allowed to change the state or content of this database.

A: Yes, the data will remain there.

A: Yes, data will remain in your application when you close the application. When you run the application the database create in the application.
But yes, if the user uninstalls, the application then user will lose the application. On the other hand, if you want to save the data when the application is uninstalled, then it's better to create the database in SDCard.

A: The data will remain there because of your default create method. There is a status code. You can use SQLScout http://www.idescout.com/ to visualize the table and watch its change step by step.

Rachel Tipograph
MIKMAK
Tipograph was the youngest exec at the Gap—leading global social media in 2015— when she became aware of a vexing obstacle for online brands: They either had massive customer-acquisition costs or were reliant on behemoths like Amazon and Target. The rise of e-commerce on social media added a new twist—most retailers that posted videos on Facebook, Instagram, and Snap couldn't convert eyeballs to sales. Her Gap boss told her: "If you can fgure that out, it's a billion-dollar idea." So Tipograph quit her corporate job and persuaded Gary Vaynerchuk, among others, to invest $4 million in MikMak, which creates enterprise software for brands to do just that. The three-year-old company—whose clients include Procter & Gamble, Nestlé, and L'Oréal—is already proftable.

g Julie Wainwright
After becoming the CEO of Pets.com in 1999, and then taking it public right before the dot-com crash, Wainwright was left with a less-than-stellar reputation. By 2011, then in her 50s, she decided to launch her second startup, a luxury consignment retailer that sells everything from Tiffany diamonds to Hermès Birkin bags, online and off. Seven years in, with nearly $300 million in venture capital and over 40 percent annual revenue growth, Wainwright is eyeing an IPO—again.
"When you fail so publicly," she says, "it frees you up to be more bold." —T.F.
g Gregg Renfrew
When Renfrew was getting ready to pitch investors on her toxic-chemical-free beauty brand, she kept hearing one piece of advice: Do not tell them that you want to go to Washington and lobby for stricter regulation of the personal-care industry. She promptly ignored the warning, and managed to raise money anyway. The Santa Monica, California–based company launched in 2013 and employs a Mary Kay–like army of 30,000 independent salespeople. It also has doubled down on growing its other sales channels, including e-commerce, partnerships with retailers like J. Crew and Target, and its own brick-and-mortar stores—the frst will open in New York City this fall. Meanwhile, Renfrew has enlisted her army of salespeople to help lobby lawmakers, and recently brought 100 of them with her to Washington. "Rather than win a white Lexus or a pink Cadillac," says Renfrew, "we do incentive trips to come to Capitol Hill."
Warby Parker vets Korey and Jen Rubio continue reinventing what a luggage brand can be—no small feat in a category in which at least two upstart competitors have already folded. The even bigger triumph for the three-year-old company: reaching proftabil-ity in year two, unheard of for a venture-backed direct-to-consumer e-commerce startup. Says Korey: "We joke that we're not going to be done until we have Away Airlines and it's always on time." —T.F.

Jeff Dykhouse called me with some questions about a video he was making for his kids Christmas Musical. He needed to learn about the Travel Matte Alpha feature in Final Cut Pro, although he didn't know what it was called. This is a great collection of tricks in FCP, Photoshop and even has a little color correction trick thrown in there too.
How are there no comments for this vid??? I just stumbled upon you today and haven't stopped watching your vids for the past hour! Thanks a mill - you've helped more than you know!
Hey Lem... thanks for the kind words... glad the tutorials help... if you have any specific requests or questions... let me know.
Thanks for help and details!
Yeah, I've noticed too that even when you are putting out great content that the vast majority of people will view your stuff but not leave any kind of comment. It can be very disheartening to content creators which is why I am always to leave even just a short comment like "good job - thanks for the work" because it really does make a difference in making sure that we all continue to have access to high quality and FREE materials like the kind Chris is creating....so "GREAT job Chris!"
I also don't usually leave posts, but I'm here too, and love these tuts!
Your videos are really great! I have been learning fcp for the only reason that i can't afford to hire somebody. Even though i have little hands on experience, i still watch video before i do anything. But I always wanna make sure i understand what am doing instead of just doing it.
I do have few questions. Not sure if this is the right place to put it, but wanted to post it as a comment so that may helps other finding these questions.
1. I shoot with Canon 5D Mark II. I do Mpeg Streamclip conversion of Apple Prores LT version. It is progressive H264 clip. But in the settings window for Field Dominance i don't see the option NONE but only upper field or lower field first which works only for interlaced video. I wonder if it still does something to my progressive footage. Because it caused a huge problem when i did my very first music video and never paid attention to this field and ended up getting a crappy quality for slow motion even using twixtor. I had to select the clips and change the field dominance to none in fcp but it was overlooked and wasted few days on it.
2. I did a huge mistake in my very first music video which i shot. Musician couldn't remember his master track lyrics. So we had to play a cd player on location and singer is little bit out of sync with the cd audio. Now i got literally two audio recorded in the 5D footage. And i do have a master track to sync with. I had a hell of a work to sync them properly. And the frame rate sucked big time. I should say i have wasted nearly a month, and still am not very happy with the audio sync. Now i just bought quicktime pro and i see my video is 29.97 fps but playing speed is 30fps. Do you think that could be the issue? How do i correct this frame rate issue? Everything is perfectly in sync when i play this video in the timeline but when exporting even without changing any option but export to quicktime and convert to vimeo hd using cram is the workflow. Please help me with the correct workflow on just importing, working in the timeline and exporting after the external audio synching. I would like to see the workflow ONLY for the frame rate and audio sync context. nothing else.
3. I shot with Canon 5D and 7D cameras. It's a nightmare for me to organize two camera footage and i did not know how to use them in a effective way in regards to organize the files, and view the different angle footage simultaneously when editing. I know there is a multicam option exist in fcp. But i don't know it in depth, plus, am not sure on the fly selecting the diff angle is the effective way of editing. Is there any other workflow you have? Please assist.
4. Is there a better workflow when shooting with multi cam ? I mean script writing and executing on location.
I am all by myself. I don't have a team or anyone. I am very passionate about what am doing. I am willing to learn a lot related to editing. I know editing bring life to my footage.
Please check out hariharan swaminathan's website and also one of my specialized virtual tour photography and motion where you can see my first music video shot mostly hand held using 5D .
Looking forward to hear your critic and opinion about my work and also your valuable help learning final cut pro editing.
Thanks a whole bunch chris!

Water: Egypt's transitional government prepares for battle over Ethiopia`s giant dam on the Nile
Source: ISS
Egypt's transitional government prepares for battle over Ethiopia`s giant dam on the Nile
The continuing political turmoil in Egypt has had an impact on every aspect of the country's life and one of those is foreign relations, as Foreign Minister Nabil Fahmy readily admits. Most of this externalised turbulence, if you like, has been felt in the Middle East where Egypt's alliances have oscillated as wildly as its own changes of government over the last two and a half years.
The biggest impacts have been on Egypt's relations with Turkey and Qatar which were the regional states that most strongly supported former President Mohamed Morsi of the Muslim Brotherhood and were therefore the states most angered when he was toppled on 3 July 2013. Egypt has just expelled the Turkish ambassador and Ankara quickly followed suit.
Fahmy told visiting South African journalists this week he had no choice after persistent and very negative criticism from Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan about the 3 July 'coup' (which the current Egyptian transitional government calls the 30 June revolution, dating it rather by the day Egyptians massed again on Tahrir Square to demand that Morsi step down).
The Qatar ambassador will probably be next to pack his bags, Egyptian officials say. But of course in the highly polarised Middle East environment of the Arab Spring – if that expression still means anything – the toppling of Morsi was wildly popular with other anti-Islamist governments, notably the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Saudi Arabia and Kuwait.
So, while Egypt had to quickly repay a US$ 4 billion loan to Qatar, this loss has been more than compensated for by credit from its new allies, such that Trade and Industry Minister Mounir Fakhry Abdel Nour is able to say the country doesn't need the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
The events of 30 June to 3 July have also reverberated southwards across Africa, although not nearly to the same degree. They have certainly hurt Egypt's relations with South Africa which have never been very warm but have chilled by several degrees in the past four months. Pretoria also criticised the removal of Morsi as a coup and was even more critical of the violence and hundreds of deaths when Egyptian security forces removed Muslim Brotherhood protestors from the streets of Cairo in August. The Egyptian authorities reacted angrily with some sharp remarks comparing the handling of the Brotherhood demonstration with South Africa's Marikana disaster and so on. It got down to that level.
Although the African Union also condemned the ouster of Morsi as a coup and suspended Egypt from membership under its rules against unconstitutional changes of government, no other individual African state seems to have been as critical as South Africa was.
But the impact of the turmoil in Egypt has been felt in other, more subtle ways, as foreign ministry spokesperson Badr Abelatty explained this week when he suggested that Ethiopia had taken advantage of Egypt's distraction by internal events to charge ahead with building its US$ 4,7 billion Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) on the Blue Nile just 20 kms from its border with Sudan. He said the planned height of the dam wall had soared by about 35 metres while Egypt was distracted by internal turmoil.
The international panel of ten experts appointed by Egypt, Sudan and Ethiopia, which has been assessing the likely impact of the dam for some time, had reported that it was unable to assess the impact of raising the dam wall so high, Abelatty said. The panel said it required more studies and statistics from Ethiopia before it could assess the economic, environmental and safety impact of such a huge dam. Abelatty said that many experts question the location of the dam – in an area where a lot of earthquakes have occurred. If such a large dam were to burst 'Sudan would be finished and the flood would destroy at least upper Egypt' he claimed.
He points out that Egypt relies on the Nile for 95% of its water while the upstream Nile Basin countries depend on it for only 2% to 5% of their water needs. Egypt acknowledges that Ethiopia, in particular, has other needs, such as energy and development, which the dam is intended to serve, 'but not if they harm our interests. According to international law, the Nile is a resource for all'. All countries involved must seek a 'win-win' solution, Abelatty says, noting that the panel of experts is scheduled to meet again on 3 December for its next discussion.
This represents a softening of approach from the bellicose stance the Morsi administration inadvertently revealed. On 4 June Egyptian politicians from across the political spectrum met to discuss what to do about the dam. There appeared to be wide consensus that Egypt should use force, if necessary, to stop construction, either by bombing the dam with aircraft or helping Ethiopian anti-government rebels to sabotage it. The meeting was accidentally broadcast live, causing huge embarrassment to Egypt.
The new 'win-win' talk will help it regain some sympathy from Africa where Egypt has lost much of its traditional influence while trying to manage its own turmoil. Fahmy insists that his transitional government is now determined to re-nurture its 'African roots' and says that he has put the emphasis on Africa rather than the West, in his first foreign visits since taking office in July, travelling to Uganda, Burundi, Senegal and Sudan. Abelatty elaborates on a new Partnership for Development with Africa which Cairo is developing which will increase Egypt's development aid to the continent.
He pointedly notes that Fahmy has also visited Senegal since taking office, to demonstrate that Egypt is not just obsessed about the Nile. Nonetheless the Nile is undoubtedly front and centre of Egypt's Africa policy right now and is likely to remain so for a while to come. Maybe Egyptian jets won't bust the dam but Egyptian politicians and diplomats are certainly going to bust a gut trying to ensure by every other means, that it doesn't go ahead, or at least not according to the present blueprint.

23 Aug Having Problems With Your Mortgage And Thinking Of Selling Your House?
If you are having problems making your mortgage payments, you might be thinking of selling your house. It is important to understand a few things about listing and selling a house if you are considering doing so.
The most important thing to know about selling real property (land, houses, condos or anything with a Deed) is that you probably can't sell it if you aren't able to pay off any/all liens on the property such as mortgages, equity lines, and other liens such as tax liens or judgment liens.
Sometimes people are not aware of all the liens against the property until they have signed a contract for sale. It is advisable to check your credit report and you might also go to the court to see if there are any judgments or liens recorded against your property that you don't know about before you put your property up for sale.
You may sell it yourself, or you may sign a listing agreement with a Realtor. The listing agreement is a binding contract with a realtor that says that if an offer for sale is presented to you for the price you ask, the Realtor has earned their commission. You do not have to accept any offer, but if you change your mind and refuse a full price offer, you may owe the Realtor money.
Never sign a contract that you can't fulfill. Don't sign a listing agreement that lists your house for less than what you owe on the house because you might owe the commission for the listing Realtor who helped bring you the offer. If you owe more on your mortgage than your house is worth, you may have trouble selling it. Since you don't have a legal right to sell without clearing the liens, don't enter into a sales contract for less than what is owed on the house.
You should not accept an offer for sale for less than the payoff of all liens before you are absolutely sure you are able to be able to finish the sale or you might open yourself up to legal liability for not being able to comply with the contract for sale.
Finally, not everyone who is thinking of selling their house really wants to sell. Sometimes people sell their property because they think that is the only option they have. However bankruptcy might help someone keep their house.
Chapter 7 bankruptcy can often eliminate unsecured debts like credit cards so the money coming in can go to keep up the house. Chapter 7 can often stop a foreclosure, at least for a while. It might give you a little time to sell your house. You can also stop the foreclosure process by filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy. Chapter 13 bankruptcy can eliminate or reduce unsecured debts which frees up money to pay mortgage payments, but also gives people time to catch up missed mortgage payments through a court supervised repayment plan.
For more information about bankruptcy and whether or not it can help you, see an experienced bankruptcy attorney near you.


Reconstruction of the bridge is running five months late and £1.2m over budget.
Whitchurch Bridge should be re-opened late September after reconstruction works.
Motorists should be able to start crossing Whitchurch Bridge again in late September the owners have announced.
The 112-year old toll bridge has been closed since last October for reconstruction work and was due to re-open in April.
But the Whitchurch Bridge Company revealed in March the winter floods had delayed the over-budget £5.6 million project and said it would not re-open until July at the earliest.
The latest statement from the company says it plans to open the bridge to traffic on Friday, September 26.
But it continues: "There are still risks in the work programme, particularly in relation to the diversions being carried out by the utility companies, so this date cannot be guaranteed.
"However, it may be possible to open earlier if the diversion works go well."
The company has confirmed the cash toll will stay at 40p when the bridge re-opens but the Bridge Card toll will increase to 29.4p, or 34 crossings for £10, for new top-ups.
Existing Bridge Cards paid for at the old 20p rate will remain valid.
The board will be discussing future toll increases at a meeting in September and will then have to seek approval from the Department for Transport which can take up to a year.
The company says a new barrier system will mean less queueing for motorists once the bridge is reopened.

Canada balks at proposed APHIS fee hikes
OTTAWA, Ontario – Ed Fast, Canada's Minister of International Trade, is concerned that proposed increases to fees by the US Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) would impose disproportionate costs on Canadian exporters and commercial transporters, with detrimental effects on cross-border trade and ultimately on the prosperity of both countries.
"My concerns have been formally submitted to the US government," he said.
"Canada and the United States have the world's largest trading relationship, and Canada is by far the largest customer for US goods and services," Fast said in a statement. "Bilateral trade in goods and services for 2013 was valued at $782 billion — that's $2.1 billion a day or $1.5 million every minute. We want to grow this relationship, not stifle it."
Canada and the United States must continue to work together to facilitate border trade and strengthen North American competitiveness to ensure the mutual prosperity and growth of both nations.
"While we believe that government inspection fees should cover the costs of doing business, the proposed APHIS fees unduly affect goods that travel across the border by truck, which represent the majority of Canada-US trade," Fast said.
The new APHIS fees are expected to cost the Canadian trucking industry an additional $15.5 million and according to the Chamber of Marine Commerce's estimates, increased inspection costs for Canadian ships could more than double under the new rules.
Given the unique nature of our trading relationship, Canada-US trade is expected to suffer disproportionately when compared to other country trading relationships with the United States, Fast said. The market distortion that is being created may not be consistent with US international trade obligations, he added.
"In 2011, President Obama and Prime Minister Harper issuedBeyond the Border: A Shared Vision for Perimeter Security and Economic Competitivenessand theBeyond the Border Action Plan, which identify joint priorities and actions to accelerate the legitimate flows of people and goods between both countries, while strengthening security and economic competitiveness" he continued. "Significant measures have been undertaken and are under way through this initiative. We request that the proposed APHIS fee changes take into account both the spirit and ideals embodied in this shared vision, as well as the reality of our low-risk, high-volume trade."

Recent developments in Ukraine have transformed President Obama's overseas travels this week like no presidential trip since the end of the Cold War, turning his four-nation swing that begins Monday from a routine gathering of world leaders to an emergency meeting of allies trying to find a way to restrain a Russia gone rogue.
Vladimir Putin will not be at the Hague when the third Nuclear Security Summit opens Monday, even though these high-level meetings were inspired by the historic cooperation between Moscow and Washington in safeguarding the Kremlin's Cold War stockpile of nuclear weapons.
But the Russian president will be the topic of most of the conversations of the 53 world leaders who will be in the Netherlands on Monday and Tuesday. Both there and then again at a summit with leaders of the European Union in Brussels, said National Security Adviser Susan Rice, the president will be "mobilizing the international community and some of our most important partners in the world" to follow the American lead in responding to Russia's provocative actions in the Crimean peninsula.
The trip's message to Putin, she told reporters, is "the fundamental strength and importance of our alliances and partnerships."
But when he arrives in Europe, Obama will find most of those allies anxious and many of those partners angry. "There is increasing anger and frustration toward the United States," said Heather A. Conley, director of the Europe Program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington. She said many European leaders had planned to use these meetings to vent their unhappiness with American surveillance of their private conversations as well as their frustration over a global economic slowdown in its fifth year.
Now, however, the Russian threat to Ukraine has forced EU leaders to mute that anger and focus on the current crisis gripping the continent. They find themselves looking to Washington for leadership but not all of them are eager to follow Obama's lead down the path of stiff economic sanctions. They fear such sanctions will hurt their own financial interests more than Putin's cronies.
But they want to hear from Obama directly about what comes next in what Conley called "this new and highly combustible context." They will get that chance first in smaller meetings both in the Hague and Brussels and then in what the White House is billing as the major address of the trip. That will be Wednesday at the Palais des Beaux-Arts when he will offer "his vision of trans-Atlantic relations, of European security," said Ben Rhodes, deputy national security adviser.
Rhodes told reporters that "the situation in Ukraine will factor heavily into his presentation."
In fact, that situation overshadows everything Obama plans this week, from his visit to the World War I battlefield of Flanders in Belgium to his first meeting with Pope Francis at the Vatican to an emergency meeting of the G-7 allies and a session with the leaders of the NATO alliance.
"The Obama trip is going to be dominated by Ukraine," said Michael J. Geary, an assistant professor of modern Europe at Maastricht University in the Netherlands and a European expert at the Wilson Center. He called it critical for the president to push the allies to offer more financial aid to Kiev to stabilize what is left of Ukraine.
"They need the money now because the country's under the verge of bankruptcy," he said.
Jeremy Shapiro, who helped handle European affairs in the State Department in Obama's first term, voiced some frustration that "some pretty important presidential priorities" will be pushed into the shadows by the Ukraine crisis. But he said it is critical that the allies rush aid to Ukraine, which, he said, "needs a lot of short-term money to stave off collapse."
The problem for Obama as he exhorts Europe to do more is that he has failed so far to get his own Congress to approve a U.S. aid package. "I do think that the president has to deliver the United States," acknowledged Shapiro, recalling that when he was at the State Department he sometimes found himself "exhorting people to do things that we weren't doing."
William E. Pomeranz, deputy director of the Kennan Institute for Advanced Russian Studies at the Wilson Center, said the continued standoff on Capitol Hill weakens Obama's hand in Europe.
"If we continue to drag and we don't show up with money at the table here, we will begin to lose credibility," he said, noting the contrast with the Europeans. "If it turns out ... where the EU is investing billions and billions of dollars, upwards of $15 billion, to help Ukraine and somehow we can't even get a lousy billion dollars into this ... then I do think the Europeans will look at the United States and start to ask" questions.
Another challenge for the president is how to get the allies to embrace tough sanctions. But the White House has been encouraged by the latest signals coming from Berlin and London. In Germany alone there are 6,000 companies with vested interests in Russia. But Geary said the environment has shifted in part because of fear of what Putin may do next. He expects the G-7 this week to offer "forceful language" backed by the threat of tougher sanctions.
Already under fire from political foes who contend his response to Putin's provocations has been weak, Obama risks being further weakened if he fails to present a front of allied unity during his trip. While in Belgium, the president also will get a sharp reminder of the costs of past European conflict. As part of the centennial of World War I, he will visit Flanders, site of three lengthy battles with a staggering casualty count of hundreds of thousand deaths.
From Italy, the president is scheduled to go Friday to Riyadh for meetings with Saudi King Abdullah and discussions about the ongoing civil war in Syria and the stalled Middle East peace process.

Q: Capture camera and show preview in div I am in the process of developing a windows store app which shows a preview of the camera and then (obviously) allows the user to take pictures.
In my following code, the entire screen shows a display of the camerapreview, and on-click takes a picture. I want the preview to be shown in a div and use a seperate button to actually take the picture. I have read various tutorials but they all use the full screen to take pictures. Is there any way to solve my problem?
I am using Visual Studio to develop a Windows Store app in Javascript.
function takepicture() {
        var captureUI = new Windows.Media.Capture.CameraCaptureUI();
        captureUI.captureFileAsync(Windows.Media.Capture.CameraCaptureUIMode.photo).then(function (capturedItem) {
            if (capturedItem) {
                document.getElementById("message").innerHTML = "User captured a photo."
            }
            else {
                document.getElementById("message").innerHTML = "User didn't capture a photo."
            }
        });
    }

The function gets called onload. I have read up on the API-info here, but could not find out how. Am I missing something?
My general idea is to use the following setup:

        <button id="capture" onclick="takePicture();">Take Picture</button>

A: Well, i have some problems doing this when i tried it.
But i finally succeded. Here's how to do
Html

    <video id="cameraPreview"></video>

The camera preview will be displayed in the video element.
Remember to set the size of the parent div, or you will see anything
Initialize media elements
// div is the dom element that will contain the camera preview
// div should be a video element
var mediaRec = new Windows.Media.Capture.MediaCapture();
var div = document.getElementById("cameraPreview");
var settings = new Windows.Media.Capture.MediaCaptureInitializationSettings();

 Get the camera device
var deviceList = [];
function enumerateCameras() {
    var deviceInfo = Windows.Devices.Enumeration.DeviceInformation;
    deviceInfo.findAllAsync(Windows.Devices.Enumeration.DeviceClass.videoCapture).then(function (devices) {
        // Add the devices to deviceList
        if (devices.length > 0) {

            for (var i = 0; i < devices.length; i++) {
                deviceList.push(devices[i]);
            }
        } else {
            console.log("No devices found");
        }
    }, function () { console.log("error");});
}

Call this after initializations.
Also, deviceList here is a global array.
Once you get the devices list, get the 1st one and add it to the settings
settings.videoDeviceId = deviceList[0];

Then initialize the mediaRec element using initializeAsync, and bind it the the div.
mediaRec.initializeAsync().then(function () {
    div.src = URL.createObjectURL(mediaRec); // Set the div data source. Most important part
    div.play(); // read the source and display it
})

I hope it helps you (and i hope it still works. I can't even try it, i'm not on window atm)
To take the picture, yours might work. I don't have the same code, but if yours take picture, then why not. Ask me if you want to see what i done to take pictures.

"Foreign" Crops – From Maize to Mangoes – Dominate National Food Consumption & Farming Practices Worldwide
Send Tweet Share Print
Nearly 70% of the crops contributing calories, fat, and protein in a country's diet historically originate elsewhere, new study shows
LONDON – 8 JUNE 2016 — The origins of over two-thirds of the grains, legumes, fruits, vegetables, and other agricultural crops countries grow and consume can be traced to ancient breadbaskets in distant parts of the world, according to an exhaustive peer-reviewed report published today.
The study, covering 151 crops and 177 countries, marks the first time scientists have quantified the level of interconnectedness of national diets and agricultural economies in terms of nonnative plants, providing a novel take on the global crop diaspora, and a deeper understanding of how globalization continues to affect what we eat. The findings also have important implications for efforts to make the global food supply more resilient to challenges such as climate change.
"It's fascinating to see the extent to which so many plants have become synonymous with traditional diets in countries many thousands of miles from where those plants first appeared," said lead author Colin Khoury of the International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) and United States Department of Agriculture. "If you're eating tomatoes in Italy or chillies in Thailand, you're consuming foods that originated far away, and that have reached those places
relatively recently.
"Now we know just how much national diets and agricultural systems everywhere depend on crops that originated in other parts of the world."
Khoury worked with fellow researchers at CIAT, the Global Crop Diversity Trust, and several universities to complete the study, published today in Proceedings of the Royal Society B.
They analyzed a range of crops central to food supplies (measured in calories, protein, fat, and food weight) and national agricultural production (measured in production quantity, harvested area, and production value) in countries covering 98% of the world's population.
Each crop was traced back to the world's 23 "primary regions of diversity". These are geographic zones where a distinct range of edible plants were domesticated and developed by early farmers thousands of years ago, to become the food crops we know and love today. In recent centuries, migration, colonialism, and trade have resulted in many of these crops being produced and consumed far from their primary regions of diversity, a trend that continues today.
The study found that all countries of the world now rely on "foreign" crops that originated in geographic regions well beyond their borders. They found, for example, that foods of Mediterranean and West Asian origin dominate diets in
the United States. This is due to the preponderance of crops like wheat in bread and pasta, and barley and grapes in beverages like beer and wine.
They also revealed that the United States' agricultural output and economy are significant beneficiaries of ancient farmers in East Asia, where soybean originated, and Central America and Mexico, where maize (corn) and other important staples were born.
At the same time, the report shows that today places as far afield as Eastern Europe, Argentina, China, East and Southern Africa, India and Southeast Asia all benefit from the use of sunflower oil – an important source of calories and fat whose ancestral home is North America.
In Pacific nations like Australia and New Zealand, close to 100% of diets and agricultural systems are based on "non-native" crops, the study found. The same was true of Indian Ocean Islands. In Madagascar, for example, the most important food crops include rice, cassava, maize, sugarcane, wheat, sweet potatoes, soybean, beans, and bananas, all of which originated elsewhere.
Cambodia, Bangladesh, and Niger, meanwhile, are among the countries least dependent on foreign crops; even so, at least a fifth of their diets is composed of crops that originated in distant regions. Mexico is in the middle-ground due to the continued popularity in local diets of crops like maize and beans, two plants native to the region, alongside sugarcane (with origins in Southeast and South Asia) and wheat.
Malawi, like most countries worldwide, depends on an array of crops from diverse regions. Its typical diet features crops from Central America and Mexico (including maize, cassava, and beans), South and Southeast Asia (sugarcane, rice, and bananas, and plantains), the South and East Mediterranean (wheat), tropical South America (cassava and groundnut), and Andean South America (potatoes and beans).
The authors also found that the proportion of non-native food crops in diets and agricultural systems has been steadily increasing over the past 50 years. This is a result of changing dietary preferences, economic development, urbanization, and other factors.
Khoury hopes that a better understanding of our continued connection to the primary regions of crop diversity will help change the way we think about food and farming. "As we're all deeply connected to other parts of the world, our scientific research, our policies and our institutions need to reflect that," he continued.
For example, plant breeders working to develop crops that can resist pests and diseases or higher temperatures often look to the broad range of plants and traditional crops in primary regions of diversity as sources of useful traits for crop improvement. But often these habitats are under threat, or conserved plant collections are not easily available.
Luigi Guarino of the Global Crop Diversity Trust, a co-author of the paper, agreed: "Traditional crop varieties and their wild relatives found in one small part of the world could potentially be of use all over the world. That means we need to steward them in their natural habitats, and also collect them, conserve them in genebanks, and share widely to help make our food system more resilient. We've long recognized this. It's why we have the International Treaty on PGRFA. But it's always good to have up-to-date data."
The authors conclude the paper with a call to action. If the world waits too long to conserve crop diversity, its potential to benefit the world could be lost forever.
The International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
The International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) – a member of the CGIAR Consortium – develops technologies, tools, and new knowledge that better enable farmers, especially smallholders, to make agriculture eco-efficient – that is, competitive and profitable as well as sustainable and resilient. Eco-efficient agriculture reduces hunger and poverty, improves human nutrition, and offers solutions to environmental degradation and climate change in the tropics. With headquarters near Cali, Colombia, CIAT conducts research for development in tropical regions of Latin America, Africa, and Asia. CGIAR is a global research partnership for a food-secure future. Its science is carried out by the 15 research centers who are members of the CGIAR Consortium in collaboration with hundreds of partner organizations.
The Global Crop Diversity Trust
The Global Crop Diversity Trust is an essential funding element of the United Nation's International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture (ITPGRFA), an agreement that includes 135 countries. In addition, the Crop Trust has:
Spearheaded the largest biological rescue operation of its kind of nearly 80,000 crop varieties, through collaboration with more than 100 institutions in more than 80 countries; and
Together with the Government of Norway and NordGen, manages and funds the ongoing work of the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, a safe and secure back-up facility in the permafrost that conserves 860,000 samples of crops from all over the world.
