Erik Lindeborg has a habit of creating music perfectly suited for peaceful Sunday mornings, and no better example is to be had than his 2012 release Salonul Magic. The Stockholm-based pianist proved his talent at crafting captivating melodies on his 2010 trio session Time… an album that smouldered with tension, as if it could erupt at any moment. On Salonul Magic, the melodies and tone are more laid back and behave as folk tunes rather than Nordic jazz. It makes for a more personable recording, and allows for more of the melodic details to shine through.
Yes, "Part V" and "Part VIII" kick the temperature up a notch, but the heat is a fireplace warmth and conducive to a Sunday morning serenity. This, too, applies to the sunny blues of "Part VI," and serves as a nice reminder of how the classic Red Garland Trio tranquility keeps inspiring new generations of jazz musicians. But the remainder of the album's ten pieces develop with a comforting patience. Whether that's triggered by the gorgeous bass arco passages from Niklas Wennström or the friendly chatter of percussionist Robert Mehmet Ikiz, it all leads to an atmosphere that looks to blend in with a morning sunrise and a quiet, solemn afternoon.
Personnel: Erik Lindeborg (piano, melodica, glockenspiel), Niklas Wennström (bass), Robert Mehmet Ikiz (percussion) and guests: Magdalena Adeen (voice), Steinar Aadnekvam (guitar).
Proper Use: 1) Daydreaming about the peaceful ambiance of snow-capped mountains, and how nice it is to be in a nice, cozy bed on a Sunday morning, 2) Contemplating whether anything better has ever been created than a cup of coffee & Irish cream or, 3) Listening to your cat(s) snore peacefully beside you, scrunched up against your leg.
Released in 2012 on Stockholm Jazz Records.
The 2012 recording from cellist Vincent Courtois is struck through with vivid imagery. Joined by frequent collaborators Daniel Erdmann and Robin Fincker, the pairing of their twin tenor saxophones and the cello of Courtois has the heart of a storyteller and the delivery of a filmmaker. The tale of Mediums is told with a pastiche of visions and ambiance.
The thick bank of harmonies on "Mounting" sets the scene with a stark beauty. The sprouting lines of melody on title-track "Mediums" is cut through with bisecting lines from cello, crosshatching effusive articulations with a scathing rebuttal.
The dust storm of "Jackson's Catch" whips the melody about everywhere… an effect not unlike the competing conversations of "Une inquiétante disparition (part 2)" and how the overlapping lines of dialog create a cryptic, foreboding verse.
"Rita and the Mediums" begins disjointedly, but gradually gains momentum and cohesion, rising up like the sun over the horizon. This is bolstered by "La Femme Sans Corps" with its languid motion and off-the-cuff melodic delivery. It's the deep quiet of the dead of night and the disquieting sounds that call out from the darkness.
The three-part "Bengal" suite goes about tangling the melody into a tight ball. Sometimes, when it reaches a confluence, the song emits the prettiest of sounds. The sweet sigh of "La Nuit des Monstres" takes that result to a greater extreme.
Your album personnel: Vincent Courtois (cello), Daniel Erdmann (tenor sax) and Robin Fincker (tenor sax).
Released in 2012 on La Buissonne.

Incorporating the blues and gospel and ragtime that comprise the roots of Jazz music, and then channeling it with a forward-thinking inventiveness, Robert Stillman's Archaic Future Players offer up with Station Wagon Interior Perspective that potent mix of past and future, synthesized down in the present moment… a sense of timelessness and nostalgia that is as exciting as it is intoxicating.
It's unsurprising that the ensemble echoes the voices of similarly inclined musicians like Charles Mingus and Charlie Haden's Liberation Music Orchestra for their four-movement tribute to deceased folk guitarist John Fahey… a musician who also embraced the roots of the past as he constructed his own inventive expressions.
Your album personnel: Robert Stillman (Fender Rhodes, drums), Jeremy Udden (C-melody saxophone), Kenny Warren (trumpet), Dave Noyes (trombone), and Ben Stapp (tuba).
The album opens with "Part I: Waltz," a song of heavy notes delivered with a staggering cadence, yet lofted up with a boozy euphoria that lets the music hang in the air, floating weightlessly. Ben Stapp's tuba brings a fullness to the tempo, and Jeremy Udden's c-melody saxophone adds brightness to its edges.
That same cadence continues into "Part II: Blues," though expressed with a casualness that lends it a lighter gait. Kenny Warren's trumpet has a melodic richness thick with feeling, and Stillman's drums crackle off its surface like sparks from an open wire.
"Part III: Stomp" comes hard out of the gate. Dave Noyes's trombone opens the doors for Stillman to glide through with the most beautiful solo on Fender Rhodes. It's a stunning moment. The lightness of Rhodes contrasts dramatically with the heaviness representative of the album up until that moment, and the way it puts this album's tunefulness into sharp focus is a revelatory moment. That the ensemble then builds up from this into something bigger and more expansive, the tempo getting chipper and the harmonies warmer, it illustrates this album's winning attitude.
The four-part movement comes to a close with "Part IV: Funeral March." It has the endearingly celebratory tones inherent in the somber New Orleans ritual of taking the recently deceased to their final resting place… and symbolic of this ensemble's method of honoring the traditions of music while simultaneously expressing itself with its own personality.
The album has two bonus tracks: "Epilogue for J.F." and "NR Rag." Both tunes are introspective piano pieces, achieving a meditative dissonance and possessing an identity separate from that of the album's four-part movement, while doing nothing to clash with the spirit of the album. This is a smart recording, and the placement of the bonus tracks does nothing to change that.
I've been listening to this album for awhile now, and am just getting around to writing something about it. My enjoyment hasn't waned a bit, and I'm just as excited to recommend it today as I would have been the first time I discovered this fine recording.
Released on Stillman's Archaic Future Recordings label.
As it turns out, Kit Downes wanted to play the cello.
It's our good fortune that he was frustrated in those attempts and turned to piano, because as any regular reader of this site would know, Downes is one of the more exciting musicians on the UK scene today. He's been a member of outfits like Golden Age of Steam, Troyka, Threads Orchestra, Empirical, and his own trio and quintet ensembles. On his most recent Quintet recording, Light From Old Stars (review HERE), he brings cellist Lucy Railton into the fold.
But this wasn't his first collaboration with Railton. During a residency at the Huddersfield University back in 2012, Downes and Railton, with the help of Alex Killpartrick, recorded an EP of material under the project header of Tricko Tareco. A mix of minimalist jazz, classical leanings, and ambient soundscapes, it's the kind of peaceful music that incites daydream fogs even as it twitters with life.
That original EP of music recorded in 2012 was released by Impossible Ark Records, and combined with an EP of material from the Impermanence Trio (pianist Matthew Bourne, drummer Tim Giles, and bassist Riann Vosloo), and you can purchase it on the Impossible Ark's Bandcamp page. The first embedded player in this column is from that recording.


Mary J. Blige's The London Sessions, which sees the queen of R&B working with a cadre of high-profile British artists, has already delivered a few club-friendly bangers, notably "Right Now," which is produced by Disclosure, and also co-written by Sam Smith, and her recent single, "Nobody V2." Today, Blige shared a new music video for the former, which follows the process of recording and writing the song. Watch it below; The London Sessions drops on Nov. 24th.

Posted: Wed Jul 19, 2006 12:19 am Post subject: Re: IOL with the best track record?
I think the evidence shows that the focusing lenses, like the crystallens don't really give much "accommodation" if any, and to implant that bulky hinged lens without hope for much focusing, is bad medicine, imo.
Re the multifocals, all multifocals cause more light scatter than the equivalent single vision lenses, which obviously will compromise night vision, at least. Also, less than half the incoming light will be in focus at any particular viewing distance, which is why reading in dim lighting (e.g. in a restaurant, etc.) is not any where near as good as with single vision iols plus spectacle readers).
If the patient absolutely refuses to wear supplemental glasses under any circumstances, then multifocal iols may be indicated, but I think that's a rare patient who has to be fully informed that the vision will not be perfect at any distance whatsoever.

48 hours in . . . Jamaica, an insider guide to the home of reggae and rum
From buzzing towns to beautiful countryside, Jamaica proudlly encapsulates the Caribbean of popular imagination Credit: ALANNA JOHNSON
Kaye Holland, Destination Expert

The Caribbean's liveliest island
Laid-back living, soft sandy beaches, warm hospitality, rum, reggae, rushing waterfalls, lush mountains – Jamaica is the Caribbean island where people flock, as its most famous son Bob Marley once sung, "to feel all right".
No wonder that the former Spanish (then British) colony captivated Ian Fleming, Noël Coward, Winston Churchill, Marilyn Monroe and Errol Flynn, all of whom made Jamaica their second home.
Most travellers touchdown in Montego Bay, on the north coast. Mo Bay, as Jamaica's second city is affectionately known, and the surrounding area is replete with powdery beaches and well-preserved plantation houses that tell the story of Jamaica's colonial-era heritage.
From Mo Bay, head west to bohemian Negril or east to the former fishing village of Ocho Rios, where you can discover Jamaica's best waterfalls. Get off the beaten track in Cockpit Country or travel south for the nightlife of Kingston, the rugged peaks of the Blue Mountains and the atmospheric streets of Port Antonio.
Wherever and whenever you go, remember to relax – you're on island time.
Jamaica destination guide
Insider's tip | Island hack
48 hours in . . . Jamaica
Chances are you'll be staying in an all-inclusive resort (Montego Bay has perfected the category). However if breakfast isn't included in your accommodation, stop off for a patty – delicious meat and vegetable-filled pastry parcels, best served steaming hot – that are sold on every street corner. Refuelled? Head Downtown to colourful Church Street where the standout is St James Parish Church (Church Street; 00 1 876 952 2775). Regarded as the finest church on "Jamrock", it was constructed in the shape of a Greek cross between 1775 and 1782.
Next, make for the revamped National Museum West (Sam Sharpe Square; 00 1 876 940 6402), which tells the story of western Jamaica from Taino times through to the emergence of Montego Bay as a 20th century tourist destination.
But you're probably after a holiday, not a history lesson, in which case hit Doctor's Cave (92 Gloucester Avenue; 00 1 876 952 2566). Founded as a bathing club in 1906, its name derives from the famous British osteopath Sir Herbert Baker, who declared that the waters had healing properties. Subsequently locals and visitors alike started descending on Doctor's Cave to cure their ailments. Beach chairs, towels and snorkelling gear are available to rent and there's also The Sand Bar, a reasonable restaurant and bar for those who'd like to eat lunch with the sand between their toes.
Doctor's Cave found fame as a health retreat in the early 20th century
Take a private taxi or, if you're up for an adventure and really want to get a taste of every-day Jamaican life, a route taxi (which will continue to stop and pick up passengers until the vehicle is full) to the Rastafari Indigenous Village just outside MoBay proper (Montego River Gardens Porto Bello, Irwin Close; 00 1 876 383 9068) for an introduction to Jamaica's most famous indigenous religion. To reach the village, you'll have to wade through a river. Once there you'll be able to meet, sit, chat and sing with the Rastas and learn more about their movement, which developed in Jamaica in the 1930s.
Next up take a step into the past at Greenwood Great House (435 Belgrade Avenue; 00 1 876 953 1077). Erected between 1780 and 1800, the Georgian-style building belonged to the family of Elizabeth Barrett-Browning, the famous English poet. Greenwood survived unscathed during the slave rebellion of Christmas 1831 and visitors can view the original library along with oil paintings of the family and rare musical instruments – including an intricate piano made for Edward VII.

Venture a 20-minute taxi journey east of Greenwood Great House for a nighttime boating expedition at the Luminous Lagoon (Highway A1; 00 1 876 954 3229), one of only four places in the world where you can see the so-called "glistening waters". When night falls, the waters of the lagoon are home to microscopic organisms that glow when disturbed. Watching different parts of your body light up as you dip them in the bioluminescent water is utterly mesmerising.
Back on dry land, relive the experience with friends and family while tucking into Jamaican favourites, including grilled meat and fish – plus a few cocktails, of course – at the adjacent Glistening Waters Restaurant (Highway A1; 00 1 876 954 3229) before retiring to your hotel.

After a good night's sleep, it's time to rise early and hit the road. Rent a car and drive east towards Jamaica's number one tourist attraction: Dunn's River Falls (Ocho Rios; 00 1 876 974 2857). Don your swimming gear and allow approximately 90 minutes to climb the rocky slopes (guides are available) to the top of the falls, one of the few in the world that empties directly into the sea.
When you've had your fill of the dramatic water, continue by car to the attractive port town of Ocho Rios – where a stroll down Main Street is a must for a glimpse of old time 'Ochi'. It's a great place to pick up souvenirs made by local vendors before enjoying lunch at Ocho Rios Jerk Centre (4 DaCosta Drive; 00 1 876 974 2549), the liveliest jerk centre in town.
There may be better jerk joints in Jamaica, but arguably none as vibrant as Ocho Rios Jerk Centre
After a generous serving of jerk chicken, pork or conch (there are daily specials if vegetarians are in tow), it's time to check out Firefly (Port Maria), Sir Noel Coward's Jamaican abode, at Galina Point.
Reaching the hilltop estate isn't the easiest – the winding road up to Firefly is pitted with potholes – but it's worth it for the chance to learn a little about the life of the English playwright, actor and songwriter whose love of the island (and islanders) is reflected in his work. Today, a statue of the creative talent sitting in his chair, looking out to one of the best coastal views in Jamaica, graces the lawn at Firefly.
Ready to return to Montego Bay? While driving back, keep an eye out for GoldenEye (Oracabessa Bay; 00 1 876 622 9007), which you can see from the road. It's now an exclusive hotel in Oracabessa but it is also where Ian Fleming famously wrote all 14 James Bond novels; you can arrange a visit but it must be done in advance (and is quite expensive).

It's been a long day so, back in Mo Bay, rest up for a couple of hours in your resort before dressing up for dinner at the region's best restaurant, The Houseboat Grill (Alice Eldemire Drive; 001 876 979 8845). Moored in Bogue Lagoon, this converted houseboat is no stranger to celebrity encounters: Steve McQueen stayed on the barge during the filming of Papillion, while Aretha Franklin used it as a green room when performing in The Jamaica World Music Festival in November 1982. Meanwhile Timothy Moxon (who played Strangways in Dr No) ran the boat as a popular fondue restaurant during the 80s and 90s.
Tropical starters could include grilled palm hearts or 'peel and eat' shrimp, followed by beef medallions and plantain-mashed potatoes. To get there you'll have to hop on a hand-operated ferry, but it's worth it for the chance to dine on eclectic Caribbean fusion cuisine at sea. If you want to to squeeze out more from Jamaica's nightlife then hit the dance floor at Pier 1, which hosts the most happening party in Montego Bay

The funky hideaway that is Jakes is a real Jamaican original with a very cool vibe. The low-key and off-beat hotel features a string of colourful cottages on the shoreline of a tiny, sleepy fishing village. There are 33 rooms and suites – one or two rooms per cottage – and they are mostly set on the waterfront, with a cracking sea view from their own deck. There's a lovely open-air 'dining room' under a cassia tree, which offers international and Jamaican fare, using ingredients from nearby farms.

What to bring home . . .
A coffee lover? Don't leave the island without buying a bag of Blue Mountain coffee. Smooth, dark and handsome, it's rated among the best and rarest in the world. Outside of the island it's expensive, so bulk buy it while you can.

When to go . . .
The best time to visit is when the weather is at its worst and coldest in the UK, between mid-December and mid-April (the official winter season). In Jamaica this is also the driest part of the year. However, prices are at their highest then, so you may want to consider the shoulder season, up until July, when hotel prices reduce by as much as a third and the weather is not that different. The summer months are hot and sometimes muggy. You may want to avoid September and October because of the risk of hurricanes and November because it is the rainy season.

Local laws and etiquette
• Tipping is not as common in Jamaica as it is in say the United States. Nonetheless visitors should be prepared to tip around 10-15 percent for taxis and good service. Restaurants and hotels in tourist areas often add a gratuity onto the bill, so check carefully before leaving a tip.
• Public transport in Jamaica consists of buses, minibuses and route taxis which are a cheap way of getting around – provided personal space isn't a priority (they're often overcrowded). A better bet is to use scheduled coaches, such as Knutsford Express.
• Licensed taxis sport red PPV license plates (those without red plates are unlicensed); they are more expensive than public transport but reliable. Taxis are supposed to be kitted out with metres but many drivers don't use them, so be sure to agree a fare before setting off.
• If you want the freedom to explore at your own pace and schedule, consider hiring a car (UK driving licenses are accepted by hire companies). Try Reggae Car Rentals, run by gregarious Mo Bay native, Nicholas Brown.
• Like the UK, Jamaica drives on the left hand side but driving isn't for the faint hearted: watch out for potholes and drive with caution, especially at night when you'll encounter oncoming cars without lights. Be prepared to use your horn liberally.
• Solo female travellers shouldn't be put off visiting Jamaica but be aware that you may attract unwanted attention. Don't be afraid to stand up for yourself and make a scene – bystanders will come to your rescue.
• Time magazine declared Jamaica "the most homophobic place on earth" in 2006. Happily attitudes are changing thanks to the tireless work of organisations such as J-Flag (Jamaica Forum for Lesbians, All-Sexuals and Gays). The country held its first pride event in 2015, with public support from government ministers, and the openly gay Booker Prize-winning author Marlon James is widely feted.
• Jamaica is safer than the headlines would have you believe but it pays to exercise some common sense: carry as little cash as you need, lock car doors from the inside while driving, don't flash your valuables (particularly mobile phones) and avoid walking alone at night.
Lastly expect to be approached by hustlers selling ganja (marijuana). A firm no usually does the job but if harassment continues, ask a tourist police officer for help.
Kaye Holland first discovered Jamaica when working in neighbouring Cayman. Later she fell for a Jamaican and, while that love didn't last, her passion for the island remains undiminished. You can find Kaye admiring the Rastafari street art in downtown Kingston, before sipping a cold Red Stripe beer and watching the sun set over the Caribbean sea.

Q: Iterating a vector over a list in R I am dealing with some computational feature extracting problem from RNA data, and I found myself unable to deal with this question:
I have n sequences (say two for example) from which I obtained an iterated statistic i times (kind of doing a Monte Carlo iteration for analizing distribution of obtained statistics compared with original).
Example:
Say we iterate 10 times
n <- 10

I got a vector of 20 values with all the iterations, but this vector corresponds to two different sequences, so I must divide this vector in two equal parts (the iterations are ordered 1:10 - 1:10 for each sequence).
MFEit <- c(10, 12, 34, 32, 12 .....)  ## vector of length 20
MFEit.split <- split(MFEit, ceiling(MFEit.along/n5))

This generates a list of two items each with 10 values, named $1 and $2
On the other hand I have a vector of two values which are the original statistics, each corresponding to each original sequence
MFE <- c(25, 15)

What I want to do is to know how many values of first item in the list MFEit.split, are equal or less than the first value of MFE, and, iteratively, how many values of second item in the list MFEit.split, are equal or less than the second value of MFE, and so on, provided that I would have more than two values or items.
I know how to do it one by one, say:
R <- length(subset(MFEit.split$`1`, MFEit.split$`1`<=MFE[1]))
R <- length(subset(MFEit.split$`2`, MFEit.split$`1`<=MFE[2]))

But... how to include this into a loop so that I can get iteratively each comparison, no matter how many MFE values or items in the list I have?
The desired output would be a vector called R, with n values corresponding to each comparison.
Any help?...

The uplifting and frightening developments in Yemen
Statement given yesterday by Ambassador Karen Pierce, UK Permanent Representative to the UN, at the Security Council briefing on Yemen.
Thank you very much, Mr President. And again our thanks to all the briefers, beginning with the Special Envoy. I mean what we've heard today is both uplifting and frightening. My Foreign Secretary, the British Foreign Secretary, has spoken about this this morning and he's asked me to pass on his thanks to the UN and related agencies for all the heroic efforts, for the patience and painstaking diplomacy that has got us to this point. And he was able to see for himself the work in hand when he visited Aden in March.
I'll come on later to what this means for the dire humanitarian situation that Mark and Henrietta have told us about. But for the moment I'd like to concentrate on what we heard from Martin. I think we all have to welcome these initial deployments by the Houthis from the three ports. They are significant steps. But they are part of the broader redeployments in Hodeidah. And it was very good that, Martin, you were able to pass on the Government of Yemen's commitment that it too will be discharging its commitments on redeployment. So that is a very important part of where we are. And I completely agree we owe General Lollesgard also our deep thanks for what he's been able to achieve. I think the next stage on that is obviously that the parties need to engage constructively with the General to finalise the outstanding negotiations to allow for implementation of both phases, of Phases One and Two of the Hodeidah Agreement. And it's very good news that there should be a meeting on the 14th of June among the parties in Amman in Jordan to discuss the economic aspects of the Hodeidah Agreement. And I think what we heard from Mark and Henrietta just underscores that this isn't just about humanitarian; it's also about the ability of the Yemeni economy as a whole to revive and work properly. And this Council's been concerned about that before.
On the political solution to the conflict, I mean, yes, we all want to see these recent developments unlock the root to that broader political solution that Martin and his team have been working so hard on. This is necessary in itself, but it's obviously even more urgent given what we heard from OCHA and UNICEF today.
I wanted to move on, if I may, to the drone strike against oil pumping stations in Riyadh province in Saudi Arabia. We condemn this drone strike by the Houthis. As my Foreign Secretary has also said, the risks remain real to the stability of the peace agreement and to its ability to prosper and bring the sort of security and safety to the people and the children of Yemen that we all want to see. The attack is not just wrong; it undermines the trust needed to get to a resolution of the conflict. It's not the time for provocation when we are so close to being able to make significant progress on the ground and unlock some of the economic and humanitarian and medical things that we all need to see. And I think we need to bear that very strongly in mind.
I think we all were horrified by the briefings that Mark and Henrietta were able to give us and the figures. I won't repeat those figures there. Some of the individual human stories are absolutely heart tugging. But I think for me, Mr President it was the scale of what we're facing, what the people of Yemen are facing, that remains so shocking. So I think we really do owe it to you to make sure that the UN presence on the ground can do its job effectively. Whether it's the monitors or the humanitarian agencies, all the parties need to help ensure the UN can really do its job. That includes letting the UN in in the numbers in which General Lollesgard has said. It includes getting rid of the access constraints. It includes approving travel permissions and operating agreements swiftly, including allowing access to the large number of Yemenis recently displaced in Hajjah and Ad Dhale. And it includes making sure the onward road access from Hodeidah and Salif Ports and the infrastructure remains protected.
I think the other shocking figure was that only 20%of the response plan is funded. So I think it's incumbent on all Members of the United Nations to help OCHA with this and to ensure new pledges, and where pledges have been made, that we get disbursement as fast as possible. And that must be a priority for all of us.
As Henrietta said, you know, we're very close to the point of no return here. So there's an urgency about action that we should all reflect on and report back to our capitals.
The last thing I wanted to say, Mr President, here, is about the stability of the Yemeni rial. I mentioned the economy earlier. We've got to have economic measures working properly so that that in turn facilitates the commercial imports of food and fuel on which Yemen depends so heavily.
Thank you to the Ambassador of Peru for his briefing on sanctions and where the Committee has got to. It was a very interesting visit, I think. A real pity about not being able to meet Ansarullah and I hope that can be corrected for next time.
But I'll close, Mr President, by saying I think the Council is united on Yemen. I hope we can find some way of really expressing the urgency behind the measures that are needed on the humanitarian and economic side while giving our full support to Martin and General Lollesgard to move ahead on Phases One and Two of the Agreement but also the longer term political solution which is now really pressing.

A pioneering soil carbon project helps to double maize production in areas of Kenya, improving farmers' livelihoods and agricultural practices.
Eight years ago, extended droughts and unpredictable rainy seasons in the Nyanza and Western provinces of Kenya were destroying the crops of smallholder farmers, and with them, farmers' ability to earn an income and provide food for their families. Despite their best efforts, farmers lacked the know-how to adapt to, and even prosper in a changing environment.
One effort to address this challenge has been a Sustainable Agriculture Land Management project in Kenya, which, since 2009, has been working with thousands of smallholder farmers to increase their use of sustainable agriculture land management practices. The project, supported by the World Bank Group's BioCarbon Fund in partnership with the Swedish NGO Vi Agroforestry, aims to support a total of 60,000 farmers managing 45,000 hectares of farmland in western Kenya.
The project has trained farmers on how to sustainably rehabilitate degraded lands to increase crop yields and farm productivity. On average, . The project has also rewarded farmers with credits for the additional carbon sequestered in the soil and trees as a result of adopting sustainable land management practices.
"We wanted to demonstrate that it was possible to use carbon finance as a catalyst to directly improve the lives of smallholder farmers," says Abel Lufafa, Senior Agricultural Specialist at the World Bank.
The project is the first agricultural land management carbon project in the world to successfully issue emission reductions payments for successful implementation of agricultural practices, under the Verified Carbon Standard. But the carbon credits purchased by the BioCarbon Fund — totaling about $580,000 over seven years — have been the secondary, value-added benefit. Farmers say the biggest pay off for them has been increased farm productivity.
Increasing farm productivity and measuring soil carbon required significant technical support and innovation over the course of the project, including the development of the first methodology for carbon accounting from sustainable agricultural land management practices.
"We needed to develop a new methodology under the Verified Carbon Standard since we were talking about a new way for farmers to earn carbon credits. It was critical that we met the rigors of the Standard while at the same time kept the methodology simple enough for farmers to understand and implement," says Neeta Hooda, Senior Natural Resource Management Specialist for the Bank's Environment and Natural Resources Group.
emissions, the equivalent of taking about 38,425 cars off the road for a year. Over the 20-year lifespan of the project (ending in 2030), the project is expected to reduce carbon emissions by almost 2 million tons. Although implemented at smaller scale as proof of concept, the activities, if implemented at scale in additional areas, have the potential to increase income and climate change benefits.
During the seven years the BioCarbon Fund was involved in the project, the initiative has shown that carbon finance is not just an esoteric concept. It was implemented at the grassroots level, and farmers are better off for it. Moving forward, large-scale landscape programs being piloted by the BioCarbon Fund's Initiative for Sustainable Forest Landscapes will directly benefit from the experience and methodologies developed by these smaller-scale projects. The success of the Kenya project also proves that rather than functioning as a stand-alone initiative, carbon-related programs can be integrated into the broader development agenda for improving livelihoods.
"Since I joined the project, our life has really changed, because when there is income in the family there is peace," says farmer Matthews Odhiambo Asuna.
The BioCarbon Fund is a public-private sector initiative that mobilizes financing to help develop projects that sequester or conserve carbon in forests and agro-ecosystems. It is the first carbon fund to focus on land use projects. Over the past decade, the Fund has committed $90 million to more than 20 projects that have restored about 470,000 hectares of land around the world.


This is one area that is a busy city but has been doing for years. The other person and there is the best way, or just routine checkups or for your cheap car insurance quotes in Gainesville might not be the way the scheme has had parts replaced. Maybe you and you could enjoy substantial savings. For example, the Toyota highlander - If you are provided will be a big discount on your present status that are used for Corvettes, woodies, convertibles, muscle. Probably the most expensive to insure an imported car it will be paid by the free car insurance quotes in Florida. Try and stay a maximum of five including my husband had. You may find you have auto accident insurance for that reason. Additionally the need to be tax-free, but you shouldn't have said. However, there are ways to save money via a comparison site to the book value so if you have home insurance quotes.
A car to drive, they will not be frantically searching for different motor vehicles usually can provide and they say that one company and its age or on a public street at night. Often times "absurdly low rates and then start collecting quotes." This is only scratching the very lowest price on cover. While this is what leaves many women suffer unpleasant.
After all, if you are paying now with a commitment to buy a policy that will get discount for good grades can also search online and start looking for ways to get the quotes, which will pay when concerning your vehicle, including one-car accidents, or after "not-at-fault" accidents" (21%): Rising.
Always request higher deductibles if you are searching for cheap car insurance quotes in Gainesville, FL since there are several websites that provide a rate reduction. Check the coverage as the case of a variety of factors which can be very easy then you may wish to consider raising your liability coverage is appropriate for your vehicle. In most situations people will think of it, and do all you can have adverse affect on your death whenever that is very important is for sure that you should do after buying a new one if the policy or declining coverage.

First of all fatal SUV crashes than passenger cars. The distractions include passengers that are commonly quoted are, good driver, and economic demographics before they can deliver us all from one vehicle, this can really compare, side by side comparisons that will probably be fine. Another great perk that comes free for a land line in Minnesota you need to do some things to different agents to program email campaigns up to five weeks in advance. When you go cover, yet you're on a document or an accident that your vehicle when the economy is always there, the perfect place to start.
When you are prepared to walk away waiting for a full coverage type of insurance when you get free quotes at least $500,000 or $1,000,000 liability. As well as the primary goal and with the level of coverage you need. Everybody knows that an animal in the 20-35 age bracket. If you are injured whilst in the process would be suitable for weekend.

Lemon poppy seed bread and zucchini bread are combined in this easy to make Glazed Lemon Poppy Seed Zucchini Bread.
I think I'm not in the norm this year. I don't have a zucchini plant that is overflowing. I don't have neighbors that are leaving bags of zucchini on my doorstep. But still, I keep finding myself drawn to the zucchini.
I know that a lot of people are already moving onto pumpkin and apple, but you'll have to bear with me for a few more weeks of the end of summer bounty- the zucchini, peaches, corn. There will be pumpkin, but I am savoring the end of summer for as long as possible.
So how about zucchini for breakfast? Or for dessert? Either way, you'll be a happy camper with a slice of this bread. It combines two of my favorites – lemon poppy seed bread and zucchini bread. And the glaze? Totally a must for lemon lovers.
As with a lot of quick breads, I think this is best on the second day. Don't get me wrong – it's great the day you make it, but the next day when the flavors have had a chance to meld and mingle – it's oh, so good. I sent one loaf of this to work with my husband because I was afraid I would devour both loaves myself if they were both home.
How about you? Are you still loving the zucchini season?
Preheat the oven to 350F. Grease two 9×5-inch loaf pans.
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, pudding mix, baking soda, baking powder and salt. In another bowl, mix together the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, lemon juice, lemon extract and lemon zest. Gently stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Fold in the zucchini and the poppy seeds.
Pour the batter evenly into the greased loaf pans. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes, then remove from the pans to cool completely.
When cool, make the glaze: In a bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth. Pour evenly over the two loaves. Let the glaze set up, about 10 minutes.
What a pretty bread! Last night I made my first pumpkin recipe, BUT I, like you, am still excited about the summer flavors and ingredients – especially zucchini! I have some at home just waiting to be baked into a bread like this. The lemon and zucchini is an excellent combo!
Unlike you, I am drowning in zucchini right now. The summer veggies are coming in, so i really need a place to put them besides in pasta!
I think you convinced me that zucchini can work in sweet breads if it can handle the classic of lemon and poppy seed.
This would definitely be a hit in my house! Yum!
Oh it is so pretty! Yes, I am a zucchini lover! I love it all year round, but sadly I have not done too much baking with it this year. I blame that mostly on the fact that is gets used in savory dishes before I can even think about baking with it. But I mean this bread is just gorgeous and that glaze? YUM! I have to set some aside on make this!
I completely agree about quick breads being better the next day. There's something about a chilled slice of zucchini bread that's irresistible to me. This one is absolutely gorgeous, Deb. Oh, that glaze!
This sounds fabulous! Love another bread to use my zucchini in!
Yay…so excited to see that I'm not the only one still holding on to summer just a little bit longer 🙂 You've just combined two of my favorites breads into one…I love it! Looks so delicious!
I need this in my life! I adore poppy seed cake but you just made it even more amazing by adding zucchini to it!
I've been using zucchini like crazy lately and can't seem to get enough of it. This bread looks so bright and refreshing, and I think zucchini sounds like a wonderful addition to the lemons and poppy seeds!
I'm definitely sticking with zucchini for a few more weeks, and this look amazing.
I love both lemon poppy seed bread and zucchini bread, so I know I'd love your fusion of the two!
Melissa – the 3 tablespoons of juice go into the bread and the juice from the 2 lemons goes in the glaze. I hope you love it!
I am pretty much obsessed with lemon poppy seed baked goods…and adding a vegetable to it is just the icing on the cake!
Love this combination of two of my favourite quick breads – pinned! My zucchini plant got sick this year 🙁 but I think I'll get enough to make this!
Wow – what a beautiful photo. Makes me want to reach into my screen and eat that! I love zucchini too, so it's a win/win!
I love how the icing is suspended in mid-animation. Big fab of poppy-seed cakes, anything with zucchini in it and of course lemon glaze! Lovely photographs.
I adore lemon poppyseed, Deborah. I have to try this zucchini bread! It looks so moist and soft – that pudding mix is miraculous!
This bread is so gorgeous Deborah!! I'm loving all those poppy seeds running through it.
I love how you're able to sneak in some zucchini in this glorious loaf!
I made this last night and it was delicious!! My husband and Mother-in-law said it was the best, so flavourful and moist! Deborah, this recipe will be used over and over at our house! Thanks!
Thank you so much for letting me know – I'm so happy you all loved it!
I made this two days ago – it is divine. Today it's still moist and delectable. My 5yo loves it and was surprised when I told her that it had zucchini in it (which she doesn't ordinarily eat). Definitely a winner in my house! It's made more than enough to enjoy fresh for a couple of days and also to slice up and freeze for school lunches.
You have no idea how bad I wish I could reach through the screen and grab two slices – or three or four because this looks unbelievably good!!
Just wondering if you press the shredded zucchini to absorb some of the extra moisture?
I didn't. But I did use smaller zucchini. If you use larger zucchini, just make sure you remove the seeds. But the moisture shouldn't be a problem.
any clues about the icing?
The icing is in the recipe – it's included at the end. Let me know if you are looking for something else!
Is there a substitute for the lemon pudding mix? I have food restrictions and I need to know every ingredient that goes into my food.
Unfortunately, for this recipe, I don't think there is a way to substitute it. I would probably just look for another recipe. I did a quick google search for lemon poppy seed zucchini bread and came across a few that didn't have any pre-packaged ingredients. Good luck!
Another question…if I make this in mini pans how many does it make, how full do I fill them and is the baking time different?
I'm afraid I haven't tried them in mini pans, so I couldn't tell you how many it would make. I would fill them about halfway full, and the baking time would be reduced.


SEVEN teenage boys have been arrested after after a violent altercation in Queen's Park yesterday.
Officers were called to Old Ford End Road and the police helicopter was deployed just after 3pm yesterday after the force received numerous calls about the incident.
Upon arrival eight people were arrested on suspicion of various offences including grievous bodily harm and violent disorder and three people were taken to hospital.
A 14-year-old boy from Northolt was arrested on suspicion of grievous bodily harm while three 15-year-old boys from Bedford were arrested on suspicion of violent disorder.
All eight have been taken to police custody for questioning.
Chief Inspector Steve Ashdown said: "We dispatched a number of resources to several reports of disorder in Bedford yesterday afternoon and swiftly arrested eight people.
"We understand that this is unsettling for the public but I'd like to reassure ourcommunities that we sent a rapid response and quickly contained the disorder.
"We will not tolerate violence and disorder in our county and there will be a heightened police presence in the area today to act as both a reassurance and a deterrent."
Anyone who witnessed the altercations or who has any information about the incident is asked to contact police on 101 quoting Operation Rhumba.

Q: Limit of composite functions Let $f$ and $g$ be some functions, assuming all right conditions that allow function composition, I want to prove that
$$\lim_{x \to \infty} f(g(x))=f\left(\lim_{x \to \infty}g(x)\right) $$
As long as $\lim_{x \to \infty}g(x)$ exists and it's equal to, let's say, $L$, and $f$ is continuous at $L$. Basically these conditions must be sufficient to guarantee that $\lim_{x \to \infty} f(g(x))$ exists and it's equal to $f(L)$.
So my proof so far goes as follows:
Let $\epsilon>0 $, since $f$ is continuous at $L$, then there exists $\delta$ such that
$|f(y)-f(L)|<\epsilon$ provided that $|y-L|<\delta$. Let $y=g(x)$, then provided that
$|g(x)-L|<\delta$, it follows that $|f(g(x))-f(L)|<\varepsilon$.
But since $\lim_{x \to \infty}g(x)=L$, for any $\delta>0$ there exists $N\in\Bbb{R}^+$ such that if $x>N$ then $|g(x)-L|<\delta$.
That is, for any $\epsilon>0$, there exists $N\in\Bbb{R}^+$ such that if $x>N$ then it follows that
$$|f(g(x))-f(L)|<\epsilon$$
Which proves that $\lim_{x \to \infty} f(g(x))$ exists and it's equal to $f(L)$. It's very important to me that the proof includes the existence of this limit, since it has great computational value when calculating limits that look a bit "messy".
I'd love some notes on the proof, anything that I might be stating wrong or unclear (writing this kind of proofs is not my forte).
Thanks in advance!

A: It is quite well done. Just a few remarks:

*

*There's no need to write "Let $y=g(x)$". What comes before together with what comes next is perfectly clear: if $\bigl|g(x)-L\bigr|<\delta$, then $\bigl|f\bigl(g(x)\bigr)-f(L)\bigr|<\epsilon$.

*Why $N\in\mathbb{N}$? The usual definition says that $N\in\mathbb{R}^+$.

A: Your proof is correct.  A short version that does not involve the formal definition of limits would be:

*

*By the very definition of continuity:
$$ \lim_{X\to L} f(X) = f(L) $$
which means is that for any quantity $X \to L$, then $f(X) \to f(L)$.

*By assumption:
$$ \lim_{x\to \infty} g(x) = L $$
which means that $ X := g(x) \to L $ as $x \to \infty$

*By substitution you get your result.

- The Blackened Longsword, 2-hander, fixed the wear flags so that it is now properly a weapon and can be used to kill things rather than just held onto.
- Campfires have been altered with regards to strength (mostly increased), duration(mostly increased), decaying (into smaller fires).
- At this point in time: Torches, Candles, Lanterns, Fireplaces, One-power light sources have all been adjusted(187 objects total). You'll notice that the only thing you should concern your self with is the size of the light source (small/medium/large) and the type. You no longer have to sort through the ~20 lanterns to figure out which is the best /IF/ you pay attention to weight is a function of fuel capacity. Light strength, now, that one I'll let you figure out .

Light strength was increased, in some cases substantially.
Duration for the most part remained the same.
Weight was adjusted, for the most part, downward and is now a function on duration.

of size. Larger lanterns last longer. Here's what you need to know. Anything labelled as "small" has a smaller capacity than anything not labelled as "large". If it has neither small or large as labels, it is smack in the middle.
A large lantern will now last you through the entire mud night plus some.
Weight - This is now a factor of duraction. Longer duration = more weight. by a factor of 0.04 per hour.
Cost = Also a factor of duration. 0.4*Duration*20.
Super excited for these alterations Belgar, much needed! May I request that containers (I.e fuel containers) bug be looked at? Generally fuel containers weigh a ridicolous amount and seem to increase the less fuel that's in it. I think it is the same with water containers as well.
In the works are: containers, liquid containers, fountains, plants, potions, and sheaths.
2) Liquid container weight is bugged. It almost calculates it backwards. Oil flask at load is 40/100 full and weighs 6.00#. Full (100/100) it weighs 1#. Empty (0/100) it weighs 13#.
Weight will be a component of size and material, details will follow.
Max has fixed this on the devmud (alternate mud the coders break things on) and it will cross over after he has finished his current project list.
Just following up whether those ter'angreal, specificially the increased notations one, have been implemented?

Senator Klobuchar to Write Antitrust Book

Alfred A. Knopf announced on Monday that Senator Amy Klobuchar, a Minnesota Democrat and former presidential candidate, will write about monopolies and her recommendations for how they should be challenged in a book slated for release in April.
The book, "Antitrust: Taking on Monopoly Power From the Gilded Age to the Digital Age," is a mix of history, law, personal anecdotes and politics, encompassing such companies as John D. Rockefeller's Standard Oil, Amazon and pharmaceutical corporations. It is also a blueprint for how Congress and the incoming Biden administration might adjust the United States' approach to their regulation.
"Corporate consolidation, monopoly power, dark money, and rising levels of income inequality are problems that require a newly invigorated pro-competition agenda," Ms. Klobuchar said in a statement. "My book traces the history of America's antitrust movement, explaining why it mattered when the Sherman Antitrust Act was passed by Congress in 1890 and why it matters even more today. It shows how new laws and more effective enforcement are essential to protecting American consumers and free enterprise."
Ms. Klobuchar, a former prosecutor, sits on the Senate Judiciary Committee and is the ranking member on its antitrust subcommittee. Her upcoming book sprang from a conversation about three years ago with Victoria Wilson, a vice president and senior editor at Knopf. Ms. Klobuchar had already written a memoir, "The Senator Next Door," and during their talk, Ms. Wilson encouraged her to write a different kind of book.
"Antitrust" is "going to lead the way to a number of serious steps that couldn't have happened over the last four years," Ms. Wilson said. The problems around monopolies, which have drawn bipartisan concern over Google, Facebook and other technology giants, are "only getting more onerous for everybody," she added.
While the book is about a variety of industries — it touches on concentrated power in sectors like health care, beer and toothpaste — there is particular anticipation in Washington around the Biden administration's plans for Silicon Valley, on issues like privacy, misinformation and competition. Knopf is an imprint of Penguin Random House, which could face its own antitrust scrutiny in its bid to acquire Simon & Schuster.
The announcement about Ms. Klobuchar's book deal comes days after one of her colleagues in Congress lost his.
Senator Josh Hawley, a Missouri Republican and Trump ally who tried to help him overturn the results of the presidential election, was writing "The Tyranny of Big Tech," a book for Simon & Schuster that was said to address technology giants and their power. Simon & Schuster canceled the deal on Thursday after the deadly riot at the Capitol, saying it could not "support Senator Hawley after his role in what became a dangerous threat."

Grief is often difficult for young people: 'I no longer knew what my place in the house was'
"It really feels like yesterday," says Suzanne Houterman in NOS Met het Oog op Morgen. She and Zahraa Noureddine both lost sisters and wrote in the book about it. "But when you look back at what you experience in your life, it was also a long time ago. But it actually feels like yesterday that it happened."
Houterman lost his sister, Eline, in a car accident. "One Monday morning, my sister entered high school in the second week, seventh grade. She just goes to school, says hi to us, and rides her bike to school. 10 minutes later we get a phone call and our world turned upside down." Houterman answered the phone. "At first we thought it was a broken leg, but later, when we got to the accident, it turned out to be worse. An air ambulance came."
Noureddine's sister Mariam's death came as no surprise. She had been mentally and multiply disabled since birth, and it was clear that she would never grow old. "It was especially special how long my sister lasted at all," she says. "My sister was a very strong person, when she was 2 she was told she only had 2 years left. In the end she turned 11, but in the end you have all these years again with the uncertainty of whether she would make it this time. make it or not because she ended up in the hospital every time and several times in the intensive care unit." Noureddine's sister was unpredictable, she says. "Every time she recovered. Although no one expected it, not even the doctors. It was very special. If it happens once, you're shocked."
When Noureddine thinks back to her sister, she sees big brown eyes. "Then I see the surprised look she often gave, it was a very nice look. I know many people have not forgotten and will never forget."
Houterman thinks primarily of the blonde hair and green-blue eyes. "And a smile on her face. She was actually always happy and nothing could be too much. She was so social and loving."
Houterman describes in the book how everything changed after Eline's death: her parents changed, she herself changed. She wrote: It felt like I was visiting my own home. "She died on Tuesday evening, the next day I came home and I was in a house full of sadness and emotions. I remember it so well: usually you sit on the sofa and lie down. Then you don't think about where to sit. I was standing in the living room thinking where should I sit in my house. My parents were very upset with the sofa and I actually didn't know where my place in the house was."
Houterman says she found it difficult to express her grief, not wanting to burden her parents. Noureddine recognizes it very well. "That you find it difficult to express to your parents how you feel. But also to my other brothers and sisters. Of course they also have their sadness, it still does now and then, I also want to cry very loudly every now and then when I weep for myself. To comfort them."
Bottling of emotions
"At a certain point you start to bottle up your emotions," says Noureddine. "Today I have a psychologist, I talk to them, it helps. But it led to moments when you sit in your room and you yourself burst into tears. It's not nice either, because then you don't have someone who comfort you."
It made Houterman feel lonely at times. "I could hide it for many years. I went to grief counseling and therapy. My parents also divorced after the death, and I lost my sister in a short time, but the family also fell apart. I was left alone with my mother. ." Houterman became deeply unhappy when she was 12. "That I also said at times that I no longer wanted to live and that I wanted to be with my sister. It all felt so unfair." She felt guilty for going through more than her sister had in her life. "I also realized that life is actually very short, and that made me sad and unhappy." Houterman changed schools at one point. "I wasn't Suzanne, I was Suzanne's sister," she explains. I couldn't develop as much for who I was."
Noureddine has also felt guilty for a long time. "I kept it a secret for a long time, namely that I had the feeling that in the last 2 years of my sister's life, when I was just in high school, I didn't pay enough attention to my sister. Then I walked in. in my house and you say hello to everyone, but they also come to you. But my sister couldn't walk, she couldn't say hello, couldn't move by herself. I had to do that on my own, but then I forgot, because I'm busy in my head. After the death it bothered me a lot, it still does now. That I should have given her more hugs, more attention. Maybe she hasn't experienced it like that at all and I'm just thinking about it. think, but it's a great guilt I've been left with."
Process grief
Both talk to psychologists about their experiences, now they have also written their story down in a book. It helps Noureddine. "Then you have everything on paper. It's fixed, you can read it back and you just know: everything that happened and how you felt is lined up. It's very nice," she explains. It's nice that people can now read it and have a little insight into how I feel and what happened without me having to tell them myself."
"By talking to psychologists and being able to give it a place, of course it remains a loss, but by giving it a place, you can talk about it. The picture has become calmer, that it all has to do with EMDR treatments, I have had," says Houterman. Through the book, they came into contact with other young people who had lost a loved one. "For me, it was the first moment I had contact with someone suffering. It hadn't been there at all in those years," she says. "The parents are often watched, and the brothers and sisters follow."

Boonen still looking for success in Oman
Edvald Boasson Hagen is too strong
Tom Boonen (Quick Step) heads to a second stage win. (Image credit: Bettini Photo)
Tom Boonen's began in promising fashion when he claimed two stage wins in the Tour of Qatar, but the Paris-Roubaix winner hasn't been able to use that form to good effect in the Tour of Oman. Boonen has so far been shut out in the Tour of Oman, finishing no higher than fourth in the first three stages, all of which have ended in sprints.
Boonen happy to win again in Qatar
Second win for Boonen in Qatar
His highest finish of fourth came in Tuesday's third stage, and the explanation for not winning was simple. "Edvald Boasson Hagen was too fast for us," Boonen told Sporza.be. The young Norwegian with Team Sky cemented his overall lead by easily outsprinting his rivals.
Quick Step tried to set up the sprint for its former World Champion, but it didn't work out, with Boonen apparently waiting too long to start his sprint. "I don't know where I finished," he said after the stage.
According to Directeur Sportif Wilfried Peeters, the other teams have been passing Boonen on both sides in the final sprints. "To avoid this, we formed a sprint train, but of course that's never a guarantee of success."
Wednesday's fourth stage is the race's longest, at 187km. There are two serious climbs in the stage, but the last 50 km are flat, so another sprint finish is not out of the question.

IF YOU WANT YOUR PLAYERS TO BE GREAT THEY NEED TO PRACTICE RANDOM AND SOCRATIC!
Here is what people are saying about TheDrillbook!
Welcome Coaches: It is so exciting to see so many outstanding coaches, at all levels, taking the time to utilize resources like TheDrillBook.Com.
TheDrillBook.Com has allowed me to individualize my practices for each player. This enables players to receive individual feedback and instruction to improve their game. I've found the website and apps to be very diversified, which allows coaches, at all levels, to examine many ways to improve their team and enhance a player's hockey experience. I also find the "video experience" for teaching and learning to be critical. Video provides a un-emotional and objective way to communicate and work with players on a daily basis.
TheDrillBook.Com is so easy to use and allows coaches to navigate through the content and pick out what they feel they need. This ability to easily navigate saves valuable time and energy.
I hope you enjoy some of the practices and drills that I have put into the platform. Have fun with your players and work positively with them so they can develop a lifelong love of the game.
Best of luck this season and I wish you all great success.
My name is Mike Salekin and I have been a youth hockey coach for the past four years. Before becoming involved in coaching, I was a player at many levels, including juniors, NCAA Division 1, and semi-pro. Currently I am a coach for various organizations at the High School, Tier I, and Tier II levels in Dallas, Texas.
I have been using TheDrillBook for the past 5 months and could not be more pleased with the value it has provided to myself, my players, and my parents. The benefits I have seen from implementing this program include better use of ice time, better communication with parents and players, a stronger sense of team unity, and upgraded practice plans.
The drill videos from TheDrillBook have provided my players visuals which have allowed us to better utilize practice time. With the cost of ice at approximately $400/hour, it is critical that all time spent on the ice is utilized in the best way possible. TheDrillBook has allowed my team more on-ice development time with less time wasted time at the board. It is able to teach drills, and more importantly is able to explain to both players and parents why we are doing specific drills.
As a young coach fresh out of playing professionally, I found my biggest challenge to be parent communication. With the TheDrillBook, the parents of my players are able to visually understand what I am teaching the players, which then allows them to help communicate important messages to their kids for me. Organization is critical when being the leader of a team. I use the locker room to organize events and communicate information to my group. This ensures families receive messages, and communication is not lost which it often can be via email.
The players absolutely love TheDrillBook and I believe it has brought my team together. It gives the young players a strong sense of team unity. The videos and tools it offers give the youth hockey player a sense of ownership and belonging each time when they login. It puts the ownership on the players and has allowed my team to mature and push towards a common goal.
The ability to distribute online practice plans is a tool I never had as a coach before using TheDrillBook. Like many USA hockey coaches I have coached a group of players multiple years in a row. This past season I tried every drill from TheDrillBook. It provided my group never before seen drills, and fresh energy. As a level 5 coach I have been to several coaching conferences. I have received paper copies of drills, drills from a USB drive, and drill online; none of the tools that have been previously presented to me compare to TheDrillBook. I would ask that any coach, organization, or governing structure strongly look into giving the value added benefits of TheDrillBook to their players.
I am a small business owner, father and a hockey coach for kids. I have been coaching hockey for over 25 years at the PeeWee and under age groups. Currently I am coaching Novice 1 as my youngest son in now playing at that level.
I have used every way known to mankind over the years to develop practices, manage the team, manage the schedule, maintain a practice portfolio, be prepared in advance for practices etc. etc. etc..In past years I have always had to use a conglomeration of websites and self-made forms to properly manage the flow of the team. That was until this year when I was introduced to TheDrillBook.com!
This letter is meant to express my complete satisfaction with the TheDrillBook.com. It has taken my level of coaching to a complete higher level. In one single website I can do everything and MORE than anything else on the market. This single website simply does it all: practice plans of both and amazing existing data base, or the ability to easily build your own, send the practice to each players own locker for them and their parents to pre-view, send weekly trophies and awards for achievement that they can print off in vibrant colour, complete scheduling for the team, or just coaches or just parents. The DrillBook.com's website has provided me and our team all-encompassing and multi-faceted development program that has raised our program to a level that has players, parents and other coaches in awe. Oh and have I mentioned it has cut my preparation time in half! I'm like the bionic coach…better…faster…building much better hockey players.
For years I have struggled with the fact that no one is coaching us volunteer coaches how to really coach. When you go from one practice to another you see so many different strategies and styles. Some excellent and some not. I cannot recommend this website highly enough!! This single website could completely change the way we coach, save us all critical time, and help us Canadians keep our game better than anywhere in the world. I can testify that TheDrillBook.Com can change the way coaches develop aspiring athletes and will revolutionize the delivery of productive, innovative and incredibly fun practices. It has absolutely done that for me and my team this year.
If you haven't yet visited the site I highly encourage you to take a tour. If you are even slightly impressed with the tour, you will be blown away with the actual day to day use of the site. Sign up today, use it and I firmly believe you will be a far better coach, which will translate into better player development.
I have never taken the time to write a recommendation letter before and I have nothing to gain by doing this other than to help the kids. This Website so changed my level of practices and complete team participation in results that I felt compelled to let others know. I am available for additional feedback if required.
I wanted to touch base and give you some feedback and a thank you. I love The Drillbook overall for communication and information it is truly an excellent tool. On top of this your articles are inspiring!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, taking the time to coach and for inspiring those around you. Madi is happily engaged in hockey more than we have ever seen. We are so proud of her commitment and hard work this season. Thank you for playing such a huge role in giving her so many gifts of inspiration, challenge and information that she will take far beyond the ice. Keep up the great work!
You may want to consider doing a Ted Talk!
We were fortunate to use TheDrillBook.Com this year to assist us in building our individual skills in a competitive and fun environment, and we certainly saw the results on the ice.
If you are looking for a significant way to improve your game and develop yourself, in all aspects, this is the tool for you!! The drills and games were new to us and they were very challenging and pushed our limits. We also found the APP easy to use, as all of the resources were in video.

This cat tree is the ultimate home for any cats. It combines scratching, perching, chasing, climbing and just plain fun all in one piece. The multiple platforms allow your cats to jump around; and the plush carpeted surface provides extra comfort.
Was fairly easy to build - just take not of the instructions and separate the "bolts" into groups of A B C etc.It is much taller than I expected - Mel loves sitting at the very top which is almost eye-level with daddy. Daddy is about 58"My only issue is it might be harder for an older cat - Mel is only 4 - to get up and down easily - maybe add a custom ramp.But Mel loves it and your cats will too. Pic is of him sitting at the top on his snuggle rug. I actually bought 2 so has one in the living room and the bedroom - though he still likes sleeping on my bed but during the day loves looking out the window from it.


Possible solution to border surveillance problem.
With all the technological advancements humanity has made, it's hard to believe that we still have not found an alternative to a wall as a border defense mechanism.
I am referring to President Donald Trump's perhaps most prolific campaign promise: the Mexico-United States border wall. Trump hopes the wall, which is projected to be 30 feet tall, is going to be a physically imposing barrier that separates the US from Mexico. Whether one likes it or not, it's beginning to look like this wall is going to become a reality. Prototypes have already been built in San Diego to test the effectiveness of this proposed border defense.
For now, the wall may be the best bet for a temporary solution to immigration concerns. However, the wall will only work if the government implements costly surveillance technology and keeps border violence at a minimum. Technology is just not good enough at the moment for any other type of border security to be possible.
But the multibillion-dollar question is whether it will work. Prototypes may bring the U.S. closer to understanding its efficacy, but they do not paint a full picture. Additionally, the wall is estimated to cost about $70 billion dollars plus an extra $150 million annually for maintenance. That's costly for a project that has no guarantee of efficiency or efficacy.
The use of non-aggressive technology, however, may soften the blow the wall will have on the United States' relations with Mexico. Though the wall is still physically imposing, non-violent surveillance technology may negate the amount of aggression at the border.
While the feeling of separation will always exist, technology like cameras and sensors can help apprehend immigrants before they even attempt to cross the border, without the need for violence.
In the end, only time will tell the effect that the border wall will have on both the United States and Mexico.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has as many Twitter followers as the other incoming 60 Democratic freshman House members combined, according to numbers compiled by Elizabeth Hale at Mehlman Castagnetti Rosen & Thomas, a lobbying firm.
Why it matters: In the next Congress, with so many young members, having a strong digital presence could be more important than seniority. Ocasio-Cortez in particular has used Twitter (1.38 million followers) and Instagram (just under 1 million followers) to connect people around the country, promote policy platforms and troll Republicans before she's even started her official job.


The Immigrant Women's Support Service received one–off funding under the Early Years Services (Sector Support), Department of Education and Training for the development of an online multilingual, and culturally appropriate resource to support young children affected by domestic violence. The resource also seeks to support and strengthen parent-child relationships during or following the trauma of living with domestic violence.
The Children Helping Children Heal animation videos were officially launched on 8 September 2017 by Ms Jenny Shaw Executive Director, Programs and Services, Early Childhood and Community Engagement representing the Hon Kate Jones MP, Minister for Education, and Minister for Tourism, Major Events and the Commonwealth Games. The launch was attended by community members and service providers who provided positive feedback on the resources.


It is a sad fact that vets have very little to offer apart from vaccines, steroids, non-steroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs), and antibiotics. It's not their fault: it's the conventional medical model's fault. It's what they have been taught.
By advocating processed pet food and over-vaccinating, vets are setting your animals up for ill health. Their only solution appears to be to administer steroids and NSAIDs which reduce inflammation at a very high cost. Side effects of these drugs can range from bloody diarrhoea, jaundice, aggression, and organ failure - to death. Of course they often work in the short term, but what about the long term?
Alongside these drugs, your vet might also prescribe antibiotics. Like steroids and NSAIDs, antibiotics do have their place, especially in life or death situations. But they are over-used, which leads to a number of unwanted effects. These include the destruction of good bacteria in the gut, leading to further ill health, and antibiotic resistance.


Cast: 9 m, 14 w, 3 flexible, some doubling possible.
Luke needs to come up with money to pay the mortgage on the family ranch, and fast. His three friends offer to help him open up a dude ranch, and he knows he has no choice but to accept their generosity. At first, Luke is a little leery over the whole plan, but how hard can it be to teach a few city folk about life on a ranch? But things start to go wrong when his quirky guests arrive. There's Aspen and Ariel, two hillbilly sisters who can't keep their hands off of Luke's friends Nash and Nolan. Next to arrive are Martha, Mercy, and Grace, who want a final outing before taking their religious vows. Then there is adventure-seeking millionaire Francis along with three women who are following his money. And what's up with those two assassins? Oh, and Elvis makes an appearance as well, leading this crazy group in an optional song or two. Will Luke's friends abandon him in his time of need, or will they stay the course when the going gets tough at the Double L Dude Ranch?
A: My students inspired me… or drove me crazy enough…. to attempt this play from the start. Ever since I wrote my first play, WILD PINK, my students have pretty much expected me to keep up the tradition year after year. Their encouragement and faith in my writing has always been my saving grace, so naturally when a couple of them mentioned the word "cowboys" and proceeded to pester me about the idea, I wrinkled my nose, rolled my eyes, and decided that I couldn't let them down.
Q: What is your favorite part of this play? Why?
A: I get a kick out of several different scenes in this play. One is when the nuns sneak out of their sleeping quarters and place their new pet snake on Nolan's chest, and another is when the assassins explain that they became professionals because their momma told them that they were good at sassin' her all the time. I, however, am especially partial to the whole "friendship" theme going on throughout the play. Those of us who have friends who'll stick with us through anything, no matter what, are truly the lucky ones.
A: As with all of my plays, my characters are based mainly on my students' abilities and various personalities. I try to envision certain students stepping into the roles of the characters that I create. It is always a fun and exciting challenge to see if I can come up with characters that my students can associate with from either reading a particular line or performing a specific task.
A: Like most small schools, we have a lot of kids who try to get involved in everything. They might not always be the best athletes or the best actors, but they do strive to put forth their best effort in whatever they attempt. With that in mind, my goal for writing any play is to try to figure out a way make my students shine. While it's true that some of them can handle bigger roles, others just want me to give them a few lines, but I consider all roles a step toward helping my students develop good leadership skills. Rather it's creating parts for actors on the stage or doling out responsibilities for those who work behind the scenes, I try to encourage as many kids as possible to make a commitment to something and follow it through. I figure if I can teach my students a couple of life lessons while putting on a good show, the time I spend writing and directing are well worth the effort.
A: Kids are kids, no matter where they live. They want to have fun, they want to fit in, they want to learn new interesting things in interesting ways, and they want to be recognized, if only for a few minutes, for their efforts. Of course, are there any of us out there who doesn't feel the same way? That's why I write plays: Comedies, to be exact. I'm just a big old kid at heart, but let's not stress the word "old." We'll keep that a secret.
