So, here I am back with a fresh update on how things go with spreading the word about Breaking the Foals. Truth be told, it's been a little slow of late as I've been primarily busy with work and also the structural edit for the novel. However, there is still some news to report.
Firstly, I'm going to attend the first ever Croydon Literary Festival on Saturday 9th September where Unbound's own Scott Pack will be a speaker. It will be good to try and do some networking there and see who I get to meet. It is exciting for Croydon to be hosting something like this, as the borough suffers from a very poor reputation in many respects (some of which is deserved, let's be fair) but there is much going on in the arts scene and this needs to be showcased; I recommend you attend too, if you can - information can be found here.
Above: Croydon and the written word.
Over on Twitter, I am steadily gaining followers and connecting with anything and everything connected with Ancient Greece, mythology, historical writing, etc. I find Twitter the hardest arena in which to spread the word, as it is still unfamiliar to me and not my favourite form of social media. Remember, you can find me at @MaxHawker.
Ideally, I would like to reach over 100 backers before release of the novel and so I am going to ask for your support in doing so. Is there a bookworm in your life who might appreciate a trip to the Bronze Age Near East? If so, why not tell them about Breaking the Foals? It would be great to have as large an involvement in this book as possible.
Next time on Update: I will be bringing you the next edition of Out of the Stable, Onto the Shelf, the mini-series available only to those who have pledged to Breaking the Foals. This time, we will be looking at the final stages of the structural edit and I will talk through what happens next.

Il film La tribù del pallone - Tutti per uno (Die Wilden Kerle 3 - Die Attacke der biestigen Biester) è il terzo adattamento cinematografico dei libri di Joachim Masannek.
In Germania il film è uscito nel 2006, mentre in Italia è andato in onda su Sky Cinema 1 il 21 luglio 2009.

Trama
La tribù, tempo dopo la disgregazione della squadra in seguito all'esito fallimentare della partita contro la Nazionale e la fuga di Leon, deve affrontare una squadra di ragazze, le "Vipere Striscianti", guidate da un ex Scatenato ed ex migliore amico di Leon, Fabi. Con l'aiuto di Nerv, nuovo membro degli Scatenati, i ragazzi ricostituiscono la squadra e partono alla volta della "Tana delle Vipere", braccati nel contempo dal padre di Maxi e dalla madre di Nerv che vogliono impedire ai propri figli di giocare a calcio.
Vanessa, inizialmente ancora adirata con Leon per averla abbandonata comportandosi da codardo, decide di perdonarlo e di dargli una seconda possibilità: i due ragazzi riconfermano così i sentimenti che provano l'uno per l'altra.
Durante il viaggio, Leon viene rapito dalle Vipere Striscianti, che fanno credere ai compagni che sia scappato come nella partita contro la Nazionale.
Gli Scatenati accorrono però a salvarlo e Fabi, adirato più che mai, lo sfida ad una partita di calcio che decreterà quale sia la squadra migliore; Leon accetta, alla condizione che, in caso di vittoria degli Scatenati, lui e Fabi possano tornare ad essere amici.
Gli Scatenati riescono a vincere e Fabi ristabilisce il proprio rapporto con Leon.

Water leaks cost Govt Rs 167B
Daily water leakages from households are expected to cost the Government Rs 167 billion, Project Director of the Greater Kandy Water project, P.H.S. Gamini said Thursday (7).
Addressing a seminar in Colombo he said the cost of generating one cubic metre of pipe borne water, by the 11,000 employee strong National Water Supply & Drainage Board (NWSDB) was Rs 150, whereas it is provided to the consumer at a subsidized rate of Rs 50 a cubic metre on an average.
He, however, admitted that when taking into account such costing, NWSDB's huge salary bill also may have to be considered.
The Project Director said that NWSDB's pipe borne water reach covers 45% of Sri Lanka's households numbering a total of 1.96 million households, covered under the programme. Gamini said that 55% of households don't have access to good water. The Government plans to expand this outreach to cover 60% of the households by 2020.
The Project Director said that the cost to the NWSDB per connection is between Rs 300,000 and Rs 400,000 per family.
Considering the fact that Sri Lanka comprises five million families, this cost would amount to Rs 350 billion, he said.
Gamini said that the major reasons for household water leakages were poor quality material being used for plumbing and poor quality plumbing.
In this connection the NWSDB has brought standards for pipes and fittings. Nine types of water fittings, including taps and ball valves, have been standardized and will be effective from 2019, he said. NWSDB also hopes to draw-up standards for three other materials including cisterns shortly, the Project Director said.
Public Utilities Commission of Sri Lanka (PUCSL) Director General Damitha Kumarasinghe, in his speech, said that soon laws will be drawn-up to bring in 'water' as another public utility to be regulated by the PUCSL. PUCSL currently regulates only electricity.
He said that in the field of electricity, there are some 21,000 electricians in the country. A census on plumbers has not been made. Of those 21,000 electricians, 15,000 are not qualified, said Kumarasinghe. PUCSL plans to begin an accreditation programme for electricians, and a similar accreditation programme may also be launched for plumbers.
Further, PUCSL has standardized which types of sockets and switches could be sold in the market, which process became operable from last month (August). Kumarasinghe said that several deaths due to electrocution may be pinned down to the use of substandard switches and sockets.

LYMEPOLICYWONK: Was the Last Decade of Lyme Research a Cover-Up? Baker and the Embers Study Revisited.
I have been unsure what to make of this debate over Lyme.
1) First, it seems Lyme alone is only believed because of poor testing.
2) This "Lyme" topic seems to be like immature adolescents with extreme comments made, such as that those getting treatment other than from one or similar guidelines are nuts as patients and MD's.
My contacts and family who have treated for all their tick infections, and did high treatment for months or even seasons have become better.
3) BEING CERTIAN IN THE CARE OF AN EMERGING INFECTION SET FROM DEER TICKS SEEMS UNUSUAL.
Baker was once described to me, by a Lyme patient whose advocacy had provided the opportunity to work with the man, as the dumbest man in the room — someone with no clue about the disease he had been given responsibility for and lacking the intellect to gain the required knowledge.
He continues to prove that patient advocate correct every time he opens his mouth or puts pen to paper.
I've read the entire letter that you and Dr, Stricker wrote and it is an excellent rebuttal. My thanks to you both.
Just like the Civil Rights Movement, we have no choice to fight on until there is justice.
that kids never get sick with Lyme due to the nightly inspections made by parents, Native Americans never get Lyme and that the chronic form of the disease never existed. I asked him where his information came from and he told me that he had been to numerous' information clinics' put on a doctor from our local State University. This doctor will drive through a erupting volcano to put his misinformation out to the public. He has stifled any and all meaningful research on Lyme Disease at this 'taxpayer' funded State University. Why? Our State University should be at the forefront of the research for a cure. Yet this silly beady eyed doctor insists on his agenda. Bad enough we have to get misinformation from the academic community. We need truth from the media.
Well, after so many years of watching all that has gone on and not gone regarding Lyme .. I think most of cant see the forrest for the Tree's. Ego, Politic's, ill gotten gains. I bet if a good percentage of the people fighting so hard to dispell Lyme Bank Records, other transactions and relationships were examined it would bear this out. Oh, sure .. overall Doctors as a whole are pure egotistical and will most will say they know about something when they do not. But, we are not talking about the avg M.D. who says he knows about Lyme Disease and does not. We are talking about people working their hardest to say there is no such thing. Tell Bush JR. that, he has Lyme !! CK online, youll find it.
This brings to the point I hear no one talking about. What would fuel all this .. has to be something sizable, right ? How about U.S. Government Liability for the responsibility for being the very ones to spread Lyme Disease to out of control proportions ? I know, I know .. we all want to think all nice. We all know that the Government did Bio-warfare testing on Plum Island during the cold war not realizing that birds would carry it inland and to where they Migrate .. the West Coast. The only 2 places recognized for A Long time for Having Lyme Disease.
I have to question, why no one in the position to gather, get enough evidence to bring this into a class action lawsuit has not done so. I dont even hear anyone talking about the Government being responsible, though we all know the details. Are people that afraid ?? Im peeved enough to do anything it takes that Im able to .. to get some form of action taken by ppl that understand the legal system. I believe a Civil Law Suit if not Criminal Charges should be brought upon our Government for their actions. I think they should pay for any research a Lyme panel choosen by the Lyme community believes is needed, which they would monitor and kickem to the curb if not doing a deligent job with the task at hand. Dont thing Universities are sweet lil angles out to do all good. They are looking for money, pure and simple. So, some good and who knows how much bad research is done through the Universities. I started clueing onto this during the Lyme Research via Universities in the East. Lame at best !! Researching points that are outdated and doing a poor and unethical job at that via personal experiance.
I appeal to anyone reading this to look into the Governments Liability. Some say oh, it was here all along. Yes, it was .. thats how they got it to do bio-warfare testing with. And to test something as a Bio-warfare agent .. they have no doubt it has extremely dangerous deadly potential. Lyme exists in many strains in many places, but was kept in check by nature until man/Government started messing with nature again.
I know this would be a slam dunk so to say case to make !! If presented by competent attornies having all the bases covered, as well the entire Lyme community of the US and other Countries standing behind them, so the government cant pull any of their sneaky underhanded policial behaviors. With the masses we will win. I believe each person with Lyme should be compensated for the untold pain and suffering past, present and future. We will never be the same, even if they find a cure targeting some protein only found with all lyme strains which can be targeted at all variations of lyme. They can undo damage done for decades, they undo a heart attack, they cant give back the years lost and the total harrassment at every level of merely trying to stay alive and pay bills. Its pure and utter Negligence, conspiracy and so much more.
Please contact via Facebook ONLY if you have contact or means etc to get something started in this direction, otherwise .. we will remain suffering until our death with So many more to join us. Something Drastic has to be done. Everything helps, but these lil fights back and forth, mere nibbles that are forgotten quickly!!
The pandemic grows by leaps and bounds. People are dying, some commit suicide after being abandoned by "mainstream" medicine. I know now my own mother died of Lyme Disease which ravaged her brain for decades causing epilepsy, dementia, severe mental illness, and parkinsons. I and my siblings all have it, likely aqquired congenitally. This thing is HUGE and getting bigger every day. I feel confident that once the magnitude of human suffering has reached a certain critical mass, all hell will break loose. With Blumenthal in the Senate, we may be seeing Congressional Hearings and indictments for crimes against humanity. Let's bring these scumbags to justice.
I think it's important to point out that PJ Langhoff's book, The Baker's Dozen and Lunatic Fringe was the ONLY book used to collect evidence against the IDSA in the CT State Attorney General's investigation. I am baffled as to why she is never given credit for such a well researched masterpiece of information?
YES – PH Langhoff, an innocent mother falsely accused of fabricated Fraud and False "Munchausen's by proxy" declared mentally ill and crusified by (DPHHS) in divorce proceedings for advocating for healthcare of her minor children under (ILADS) Specialists (and thus, direct and/or indirect prosecution) followed by a "witch hunt" with taking of life (legal and physical custody), liberty (choice, dignity, respect, evidence-based medicine, freedom of speech and expression without reprisal by the state), property (real and personal) and privacy violations by the state deserves credit for her well researched masterpiece of information! "The Baker's Dozen and Lunatic Fringe"

Modi, Trump ask Pak to rein in terror
In a stern message to Pakistan, India and the US on Tuesday asked the country to ensure that its soil is not used for cross-border terror with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Donald Trump vowing to boost their fight against terror groups like ISIS, JeM, LeT and D-Company.
As the two leaders held their maiden meeting at the White House and displayed a lot of chemistry, the two countries also called on Pakistan to "expeditiously" bring to justice the perpetrators of the Mumbai, Pathankot attacks and other cross-border terrorist assaults by Pakistan-based groups.
Modi and Trump vowed to strengthen efforts to fight terrorism and eliminate safe havens for terrorists.
"Eliminating terrorism is among the top-most priorities for us," Modi told reporters in his joint press statement with Trump at the White House Rose Garden.
A joint statement issued after their meeting said the two sides "called on Pakistan to ensure that its territory is not used to launch terror attacks on other countries."
Ahead of the meeting, the US State Department had set the tone for the summit by declaring Syed Salahuddin, chief of Kashmiri militant group Hizbul Mujahideen, as a 'global terrorist'.
The meeting, however, seemed to be dominated by the discussions on cross-border terrorism with the leaders announcing increased cooperation to prevent terrorist travel and to disrupt global recruitment efforts by expanding intelligence-sharing and operational-level counter-terrorism cooperation.
The leaders also affirmed their support for a UN Comprehensive Convention on International Terrorism that will advance and strengthen the framework for global cooperation and reinforce the message that no cause or grievance justifies terrorism, the joint statement said.
During his address to the media, the prime minister said, "We talked about terrorism, extremism and radicalisation and agreed to cooperate on this. Fighting terrorism and doing away with the safe shelters, sanctuaries, and safe havens will be an important part of our cooperation."

Farwell History
Farwell was named after Samuel Farwell, a resident of Utica,New York and a well-known contractor for the building of public works. His works include the Croton Aqueduct, which supplied New York City with clean water around 1840. He was also involved in the building of the Erie Canal. He was a major stockholder in the Flint Pere Marquette Railway Company. His son-in-law, William Potter, was also employed by the railroad. Farwell was a planned community on the Flint\Pere Marquette Railroad by the Farwell City Company. The Trust Deed was dated December 5, 1870 and signed by Ezra Rust, Gurdon Corning, L.B. Curtis, James Hay, Ammi Wright, Thomas Merrill, Edmund Hall and their wives. They were all in the logging business and needed a town closer to their camps where they could pick up supplies. Farwell was the first county seat of Clare County. Business was booming until 1877 when the County House Burned. Arson was suspected, but never proved. Clare and Farwell vied for the county seat after the fire, but it was moved to Harrison in 1879. Harrison was thought to be more centrally located.

POE: The Work Done By Grinding Gear Games Has Been Very Good
It has been several months since Path of Exile reached Xbox One. There is no excuse to stop trying one of the best role-playing games you can find, which is only available on Xbox One console and, this is the best, is a fair free to play. Exploration and looting are the fundamental elements of the gameplay while, with our character, we are destroying any enemy that puts us ahead. I would love to see games being accessible to everyone whether you are deaf, blind, have limited mobility and more. Further official news and a wealth of information, see more at here.
Things that fans of the game will really appreciate that they have spent a lot of time, but that are not unfair to the new player that is introduced now. The control is important here, since the work done by Grinding Gear Games has been very good, and quite intuitively we can access up to 8 skills assigned to our character (which of course we will have to unlock little by little), and some more actions.
Not so long ago that Path of Exile has reached Xbox One, but the game already has a long journey on PC that has also been accompanied by success in terms of support from a community that has been quite faithful. This has also helped in Grinding Gear Games have been concerned to keep the game updated and up to date in terms of new content. Path of Exile's next expansion, won't be as big, but at least not in terms of size, and it does shake up the other side of the coin for Path of Exile: the endgame.
In ARPG Action gameplay, Path of Exile is a shining example, and amazing dedication from the developers right there, so rare to see these days. Path of Exile: War for the Atlas is available now on PC, with an Xbox One version was also launched for a while. The latest expansion of the hit ARPG also is the first official European release with nine supported languages. If you want to know more about the war for the atlas, have a look at the following page: https://www.u4gm.com/path-of-exile.

Danish dairy firm focuses on sub-Saharan Africa business
Denmark-based dairy firm Arla has announced its plan to increase its business in sub-Saharan Africa over the next two years
: Arla would also partner with South Africa-based NGO Action Aid to promote economic development in Africa. (Image source: ILRI/flickr)
By 2017, the company intends to increase its annual revenues of US$103.4mn to US$318.1mn by focusing on its powdered and UHT milk business.
According to the dairy firm, it sells products in Nigeria and Côte d'Ivoire. Arla's strategic focus is also directed at markets like Ghana, Senegal, DR Congo as well as other markets in Africa, added the company.
Finn Hansen, international business group head of Arla, said, "More and more African consumers demand types of dairy products that cannot always be produced locally in adequate volumes. We offer good nutrition through our powdered milk products and simultaneously we want to ensure that our business does not have any negative effects on local farmers."
Hansen revealed that the company would update its human right policy in its code of conduct in order to comply with the United Nations Guiding Principals (UNGPs) and OECD guidelines on human rights by 15 July 2015.

Welcome back! Last episode, our heroes had suddenly found themselves with rapid-onset heart attacks and Pocky, and had gone past a giant crab. Well I'm pleased to say we got back to the hotel just fine. After chilling in the hotel room and blogging for a bit, we went for dinner.
Next morning: woke up, did the cursory internetting for a few hours, then we went for a walk. Our path today: the Path of Philosophy, a trail going for a couple of km's that goes past ever more shrines and temples and gardens, following a stream. It was really enjoyable (AAAAA++++ would walk the path again).
After checking out what looked like the final shrine on the path, we headed west, past the university, to the Kyoto Imperial Palace Gardens. Who needs a palace so huge? Some school kids had the right idea (or perhaps it was their teachers): run around the thing. The whole place is 1.3km by 800m.
Southward, about another k, and we got to the final attraction: the International Manga Museum. Photos were not permitted for most of the place, but if you could imagine a three-floor building with lots of manga (a collection of over 40,000 volumes) stacked on the walls, an exhibition of western comics for girls and women, a display of wood carvings, a reading room for kids, and lots of people sitting around just reading manga, then you've got the idea.
Finally, we were walking in the vague direction of the subway, when we came upon a garage-like sale at a shrine. It was "garage-like" in that it had the feel of a garage sale, and yet was clearly well-organised and with some interesting goods. My eyes happened upon a golden fully-mechanical pocket-watch, with no internal cover over the clockwork so that you can see the whole thing in action. Had. To. Have. Got the lady down to ¥8000–coincidentally, the amount of money I had on me. This is why I need to go to an ATM again so soon.
After all the excitement we headed back to the hotel, and promptly ran out of internet (because when they say 24 hours, they mean 24 hours!) but I bought some more. I'm not here to be so cheap as to make life totally inconvenient.


Established in 1852 by Luciano Francisco Ramón de Murrieta, this historic bodega was the first of the famous Rioja houses to be established and is still in existence today. As the original visionary and pioneer of the Rioja region, Luciano was made Marqués de Murrieta by Queen Isabel II. After the death of the Marqués in 1911, the bodega was taken over by the Olivares family and then in 1983 by D. Vicente Cebrián-Sagarriga, Count of Creixell. The new owner's aim was to establish Bodegas Marqués de Murrieta among the best wineries in the world. His sudden death in 1996 left the vision only partly fulfilled. The baton was passed onto his son Vicente Dalmau who proceeded to revolutionise the entire estate, investing significantly in the vineyards and winery to take the bodega into the 21st century. The emphasis now is very much quality focused, with low yields in the vineyard and limited production in the winery. Truly hand-made, world-class wines from the oldest family owned estate in Rioja.
On the southern limit of the Rioja Alta, just a few kilometres from Logroño, we find a unique and privileged winery on the Ygay estate. It is built in the middle of 300 hectares of its own vineyards, guaranteeing complete control over the grapes. Within the Ygay estate all the traditional grape varieties are still grown; Tempranillo, Graciano, Mazuelo, Garnacha and Viura. The vineyards are divided into many subplots including single vineyards; 'Capellanía' planted with Viura (from 2004 vintage aged in 100% French oak), 'Dalmau' which contains old vine Cabernet Sauvignon, and up on 'La Plana', at 500 metres above sea level, we find the source of the Gran Reserva Castillo Ygay.
Finally, the last project will be to construct guest lodges in and around the great estate so visitors can experience Murrieta to the full.


As part of the heritage of the Prada Group, the cinematographic experiments of Prada and Miu Miu represent the expression of an unrestricted and unbound narrative free of pre-set limitations that generated internationally acclaimed short films.
Miuccia Prada considers cinematic art as a natural language embracing various spheres, as sight and sound, that allow the creation of direct and immediate interaction with others, beyond fashion.
Connections of high emotional intensity are made possible through the involvement of some of the world's most prestigious filmmakers and their greatly sensitive and empathic interpretive work.
Miu Miu Women's Tales are a series of short films by contemporary international female directors sharing intellectual and heterogeneous visions that interpret the spirit of Miu Miu through the expression of their personal idea of femininity.
Through their independent and unconventional approach, they critically investigate the role of women in contemporary society, visually translating their endless complexities and contradictions.
In the series of short films, presented in collaboration with the Venice Film Festival in the section "Venice Days", Miu Miu's collections become the nonchalant and never unnatural protagonists that always gain the spotlight gracing the bodies of the women that wear them.
Consistent with the sensual, carefree and rebellious spirit of the brand, the clothes juxtapose to the narrative drama describing power and desire, vanity and refinement, dreams and nightmares. Even the smallest moment of the daily life of a woman encompasses multiple aspects: Women's Tales specifically outlines these moments, emphasizing the emotional and undeniable power of the clothes.

Wythenshawe Interchange
Aggregate Industries »
Charcon supplies paving for state-of-the-art Wythenshawe Interchange.
When Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) announced a £6 million investment in a new transport interchange for Wythenshawe, it promised to regenerate the area, providing a state-of-the-art gateway to the town centre, better links between buses and trams and improved safety for passengers.
TfGM's vision was to create a fully integrated and accessible transport hub, with a range of improved facilities, including a new TfGM Travelshop, cycle parking facilities, enhanced CCTV and passenger information systems.
Ensuring the interchange was environmentally sustainable was a top priority and 72 solar panels were incorporated into the roof design to provide 10 per cent of the building's energy.
Charcon, was already working on a separate contract for TfGM, delivering an area of public realm opposite the new interchange, which would connect the existing Metrolink station to the new transport hub.
As a result of Aggregate Industries' existing relationship with TfGM, and to ensure the design aesthetics of the neighbouring schemes seamlessly married together, Charcon products were specified for the public realm elements of the project. This included footpaths, ramps and circulatory routes.
1,371m2 of Andover Washed premium block paving was specified, chosen for its flexible design capabilities and sustainable qualities. In addition to the existing 288m2 Anthracite Charcoal and 1,083m2 Silver Grey colour options, Charcon's design team worked in partnership with TfGM to create two new colour shades specifically for the project.
1,083m2 of each of the new Mid Grey and Light Grey colours combined with the existing shades to achieve an understated, contemporary backdrop for the project. The four colour options were used to stunning effect, creating aesthetic designs in adjacent areas while retaining overall texture and colour consistency.
The bus interchange has been designed to be compliant with the City Council's Design for Access 2 (DFA2) document. 61m2 of Elite (Format 3) deterrent paving was supplied to deter pedestrian and vehicular access and provide "wayfinding" measures and finishes for the interchange.
TfGM was keen to ensure the new interchange was as sustainable as possible so the use of Andover Washed helped meet these requirements, containing up to 50 per cent non-primary materials.
The public realm was completed on time and on budget, and the new interchange opened to the public in July 2015.
Mike Davies, Specification Manager at Aggregate Industries, said: "Wythenshawe Interchange has been a fantastic project to be involved in. Our Andover Washed block paving was the ideal choice to complement the contemporary design of the project and also helped contribute to the sustainability credentials of the scheme.
"We always welcome the opportunity to create bespoke products for our clients. The two new shades created for the transport hub looked so good in situ, we have since added them to our overall range."

Change the Future of Migration – Invest in Food Security and Rural Development
Blog by Anne Majani, October 16, 2017
Migration is fast emerging as a key topic and a nuanced understanding considers it as a livelihood diversification strategy for individual aspirations thus viewed as part of wider development. On the other hand and imperatively, its occurrence for others is often due to limitation of choices resulting from adverse political, environmental and economic situations, and ultimately, resulting in harmful effects such as increased pressure in the hosting environment.
Migration in Kenya
The International Organization for Migration Country Profile Report 2015 depicts migrations trends in Kenya and illustrates immigration, emigration, irregular migration and human trafficking, refugees and stateless persons and internal displacement as main characteristics. As much as Kenya is home to one of the largest and oldest refugee camps in the region, Kenyans like many other citizens in other countries are on the move. A deeper interrogation of internal displacements which according to the National Council for Population and Development are characterized as rural –urban, rural – rural and urban – rural and urban – urban, warrants important questions on the drivers of migration, bearing in mind that Kenya Population Census 2009 estimated 31.3 per cent and 68.7 per cent of our population settled in Urban and Rural areas respectively and notably the movement from rural areas is on the increase.
Current discourses attempt to distinguish between voluntary and involuntary migration with consensus that there is always gradation of choice in the multiple yet complex drivers of migration such as food insecurity, social economic insecurity, conflict and individual aspirations and prospects for income diversification. Though the acknowledgement of these as common drivers of migration, this is against the backdrop of data constraints for instance in Kenya, the number of people displaced as a result of climate change is unknown and also drivers such insecurity due to political instability are considered as sensitive issues.
The notion of Migration has gained prominence and the World Food Day will this year highlight substantial issues on migration ahead of the World Migration and Refugees day to be commemorated later on in December.
This year, we reflect on the relationship between Food Security, Rural Development and Migration. The 2017 Global Hunger Index Report indicates a slight improvement in Kenya's ranking, but there is cause to worry since the progress made in 2017 Hunger Index compared to the year 2000 is still low, registering a decrease of between 25.0 per cent to 49.9 per cent, and considered serious. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) asserts that rural migration is caused by economic issues resulting from absence of alternative opportunities to improve livelihood, political causes which are evident from the inequalities between rural and urban areas and conflicts and environmental causes such as a changing climate.
The narrative on migration needs to be rebalanced with both short and long term broad perspectives with an interdisciplinary outlook on the options to address challenges and maximize on benefits. Prioritizing policies and interventions that recognize human mobility as a fundamental element of sustainable food systems is essential. Sustainable Diets is key and brings forth focus on nutrition whose absence is manifested in obesity and under nutrition, and change of diets is associated with rural urban migration. What is fundamental is that options are opened up and issues are analyzed not only in terms of security, but integrating development perspectives.
The youth comprise a large percentage of rural- urban migration due to lack of employment and effects of a changing climate in agriculture with inability to adapt, is not making the situation any better. The consideration of holistic approaches in the food systems to ensure that small scale farmers are able to adapt which includes access to inputs such as diverse seeds, the integration of youth in the value chains and working closely with private sector and governments to ensure there is a well established network that develops interdependence between rural and urban centres.
This subscribes to the 2030 development agenda for Sustainable Development where member states endeavored to "leave no one behind" and strive to first reach out to those who are furthest behind in efforts to recognize that the dignity of individuals like refugees, displaced persons, migrants and other marginalized groups is fundamental and that the Sustainable Development Goals and targets should be met for all people and from all nations.

Q: Error Logs to Diagnose Error 500 in LAMP My Wordpress site is installed in a LAMP stack (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP).
Suppose I encounter HTTP error 500. What logs might help diagnose the issue? How can the logs be enabled? What are the normal filenames, and where are the log files normally stored?
I know it is possible to log some errors by adding these lines to wp-config.php
define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );
define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );

What other logs should be reviewed?

A: You are using Apache for your http server,it will keep it owns logs for access & errors, depending on how you have it configured.
By default Apache will probably use the following logs;
    /var/log/httpd/access_log
    /var/log/httpd/error_log

or

    /var/log/apache2/access_log
    /var/log/apache2/error_log

Log locations are in your Apache Config (/etc/httpd/). Check here for details.
Using WP_DEBUG
The WP_DEBUG flag will cause excessive logging of information, notices, warnings, errors, critical, etc.
WP_DEBUG_LOG when set to true saves information to /wp-content/debug.log
WP_DEBUG_LOG can have a log path set, for example;
define( 'WP_DEBUG', 'true' );
define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', '/tmp/wp-errors.log' );

You can get more info on debugging here. It is also worth noting it is not recommend using WP_DEBUG on production sites.
My advice, before enabling debug, would be view the access & error logs for your http server (Apache in your case). They might yield the information you need without the need for WP_DEBUG.

NO UFOs Tonight — Just Pigs Flying
By TracyW February 7, 2007
According to the 188th Fighter Wing at the Arkansas Air National Guard:
Capt. Maj. Keith Moore
Arkansas Air National Guard
Public Affairs Officer
Keith.e.moore2@ar.ngb.army.mil
Notice to public, Flares to be used on Razorback Range on Thursday
FORT SMITH, Ark. – The Arkansas Air National Guard would like to advise
the public in and around the Fort Smith and Fort Chaffee area that A-10
aircraft operating on Razorback Range at Fort Chaffee on Thursday evening,
February 8, 2007, will be employing illumination flare munitions as part of tactical
training flights.
The aircraft which will be participating in the training at the Fort
Chaffee range are from Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana. They will be
conducting normal air-to-ground close air support training maneuvers
with student pilots. The training will also involve deploying several types
of munitions. Among the munitions used for night time training are
parachute-suspended flares dropped by the aircraft which are used to
",0] ); //–>illuminate target areas for more accurate target identification and
Col. Kevin Wear, commander of the 188th Fighter Wing at Ebbing Air
National Guard Base in Fort Smith said, "We would simply like to advise the
public that these training operations are ongoing at the Fort Chaffee range,
and to let them know that the flares will be part of this training. We don't
want to create any confusion or misunderstanding when people in the Fort
Smith and Van Buren area see the flares lighting up the night sky."
Thursday evening's training operations will begin around 6 p.m. and
should last between 45 and 90 minutes according to Wear. He added that the
flares come in several colors including, white, red and yellow. When deployed,
the flares ignite and are suspended below a small parachute to enable them
to stay aloft longer providing needed light over the battlefield target
As a public service, the Air National Guard will try to keep the public
advised of any future training operations involving unique or
extraordinary equipment to prevent any possibility of public panic or concern.
"As we transition to the A-10 from the F-16 here at Fort Smith, we will
do what we can to keep the public informed. The mission of the two
aircraft are somewhat different, so the public will see a few new things as we begin
to train more and more on the tactics locally with the A-10," said Wear.


So there I was, pottering around home yesterday morning, and suddenly the lights go out. And the bleating of the UPS reaches my ear. Some inspection shows that the fridge is still working, Tamsyn is still happily playing on her computer, and all the trip switches including the big ones in the box outside are happy.
Further inspection shows that we have one phase of the three phase circuit, and even further inspection shows some very dodgy looking wiring on the pole side of the feed.
So Tanya gets instructions to phone council and I bugger off to work.
Long story short, at 1800 it was starting to get dark inside the house, and we still had only the one phase.
Battleshort! I disconnected the two dead phases, and shorted all three phases together on "my" side of the mains breaker (which is the bottom of the bottom left switch in the first picture, but I did it at the input side of the breaker that feeds the garage, just because it was more convenient.
So around quarter past eight, just as I've put the bread in the oven , the crew pitches.
 We had friends over, and I make Pioneer Woman's Marlboro Man's Birthday Dinner (well, the pan fried steak with blue cheese sauce, crash hot potatoes, and buttered rosemary rolls part of it). With store-bought dough in my black pot, Porterhouse steaks from Constantia Pick & Pay, and lemme tellya, that blue cheese sauce is something else.
Last year I bitched about the lack of licences for my Browning-designed ironmongery. Just before Christmas, the situation improved markedly.
So I could shoot my 1911 and my Winchester '94 on Saturday the 23rd of January.
Post '64 Winchester '94 in .44 Magnum. Not a particularly good example of a Winchester, the beancounters got involved and the post '64 Winchesters are cheap (the beancounters were supposed to make things less expensive, and got confused about the difference between cheap and inexpensive).
1944 Remington-Rand produced M1911A1. Carries British proof marks on the barrel. An excellent example of a 1911. Made towards the end of the Second World War, I'm pretty sure this pistol never saw service. Sat around in stock until being sold as war surplus.
My friend Etienne bought it and fitted the Pachmayr grip and magazine. I liked the gun so much I told him if he ever wanted to sell it I wanted it. He emigrated to the USA, the 1911 stayed behind.
This is one sweet pistol.
(And Tamsyn really liked the Norinco 22 levergun).
<Tanya> I'm no good at computer games!
<Youngest daugher> I have a game you'll be good at!
<Youngest daughter> Come to my room and I will show you!
<me> Hey, I'm good at that game!
I added two switches, one for the undercounter light, the other for a downlighter I still need to fit. Not the most professional installation, but it'll work.
Remember the bathroom we built from scratch back in November 2008? I ripped it all apart again. The bath (a Libra Neptune Euro) was too big for Tanya, so Frank and I fitted a smaller (1700 x 700 as opposed to 1800 x 800) and much cheaper bath.
Here's the redone tiling. Look at the clever gyppo  in the corner. The grout line would have been on the edge of the bath, so we made a cut-out in the front tile so that the front edge matches the rear wall.
If the front edge looks like it gets narrower towards the right, that's because… it gets narrower towards the right. The (professional) tiler tiled the rear wall at an angle (I know I built the box square to the rear wall, before the tiling happened) and I opted to square the bath at the back. I'm sure by next week I won't notice it any longer.
 In the sense of "avoiding work".
Only one thing to do! Deb's slow roasted tomatoes!
Halve tomatoes (this takes a helluva long time). Cover with oil and herbs (I did this in a bowl).
Roast for three hours at a touch over 100C.
… and skinned (this, also, is a helluva job). The skins etc goes back to the worms, of course.

Bad Things Happen in the Dark
Home to around 42 million people and 28 island nations and territories; the Caribbean has a hard time competing for resources on the global stage. Yet, this region of the world is a veritable microcosm of the many challenges and opportunities facing the wider world. No area of the Caribbean economy highlights this more than the challenge of energy security. Powering an island economy involves a complex and in many ways antiquated supply chain of diesel fuels and petroleum products to keep aging turbines whirling. The majority of Caribbean electric utilities are state-owned enterprises (SOEs), increasing the pressure to keep these public services as a part of the electoral apparatus, rather than reforming them to become more efficient and cost effective for the public – an objective that is understandably hindered by the limited purchasing power individual islands enjoy and the geographic inability to form energy blocs or build interconnected power grids.
When it comes to electricity supply, the Caribbean represents a dueling battle between access on the one hand and affordability on the other. In Haiti for example, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA) a mere 28% of the population has access to electricity. Across the border in the Dominican Republic the number is closer to 96%. One island over in the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico, the number of residents with access to electricity is 100%, yet the challenge across all 3 islands and the broader region is not merely about access, it is also about affordability. Even though Puerto Rico has enjoyed de facto U.S. protectorship since it became a U.S. territory at the end of the Spanish-American War, the island's residents are saddled with energy costs between 3 and 4 times higher than the mainland. This would have a crippling effect on any economy. In Puerto Rico the high cost of energy has quite literally paralyzed households, corporate investments and has cast a heavy yoke around the struggling economy's neck.
While Puerto Ricans are comparatively well off next to their Haitian and Dominican neighbors, if the island were a U.S. state it would be the poorest state of the union. Imagine Mississippi with an energy bill 3 times higher than it is today?
Puerto Rico's per capita GDP is about half of Mississippi's, at $15,203, with some experts likening the island to America's "third world country." Rightly there would be a mass exodus to neighboring states, much like the flight of Puerto Rico's financial and human capital to the U.S. mainland at the rate of 1,000 inhabitants per week. Coupled with Puerto Rico's headline grabbing fiscal crisis, where the island has been likened to a 'Greece of the Caribbean,' due to its $73 billion public debt, reforming the ailing public utility, PREPA, requires leadership, fortitude and rapid decision making around viable local solutions that seem desperately lacking. PREPA, Puerto Rico's electricity authority, much like the island, is laboring under $11 billion in debt and the recent bankruptcy of Puerto Rico's transport authority is an ill omen of PREPA's fate should imminent action not follow.
The consequences of lagging energy standards in the Caribbean and Puerto Rico, in particular, present a series of insidious threats to the region and to American security. For one the Caribbean is a long-standing entrepôt for the drug trade. With a hamstrung regional economy, declining corporate investments and tourism, the region's already vibrant grey economy is sure to grow and become darker still as people turn to the seedy underworld of the drug trade and criminal gangs to make ends meet. Puerto Rico, again, if it were a part of the U.S. would be the most violent state per capita by a long margin. This criminality is in large part driven by the political neglect that the island has suffered in Washington and the lack of political leadership and consensus among Puerto Rico's three political parties, which have been very busy serving their own narrow interests, while their ship and people sink.
The path forward on improving energy security in the Caribbean and Puerto Rico in particular involves the following key steps:
Wean electric utilities off of costly foreign oil and diesel and look to viable alternatives such as propane as a bridge to natural gas. This bridge is in part driven by the U.S. shale gas bonanza that is slated to make America a net exporter of energy by 2020.
De-risk contracts with heavily indebted public utilities like PREPA through global capital markets and insurance solutions that can attract viable commercial partners giving them comfort in light of enfeebled state-owned counterparties.
Repeal crippling facets of the Merchant Marine or, as it is more commonly known Jones Act that nearly doubles the cost of ship-borne trade in U.S. islands, such as Hawaii and Puerto Rico, where it is more cost-effective to receive shipments from China, than it is from the U.S. mainland.
The conservative Heritage Foundation has argued vociferously that the Jones Act is an outdated protectionist policy that not only hampers U.S. economic competitiveness, but harms national security. No place feels the crippling effects of the Jones Act and its narrow interests more than Hawaii and Puerto Rico, two island territories that can ill-afford an unfair playing field. The time for political will and action around enhancing Caribbean energy security and increasing the cost-effectiveness of energy supply is now. Failure to take concerted action will only lead to long-term challenges and further backsliding in the region that will be costlier and more complex to solve in the future.

In constitutional practice there are few cases in which this action is set in motion. But it is a constitutional and is known by the constitutional court, and ensures basic rights. Regarding the procedure to be followed in this action it is governed according to the stipulations for the constitutional complaint as a resource which requires legal formalities unlike the Habeas Corpus. VI. REMEDY OF THE CONSTITUTION AND EXISTING other fundamental rights all other fundamental rights granted and not explicitly embedded in the constitutions shall be protected through constitutional protection or also known as amparo.
The mandate of international standards regarding the protection of fundamental rights is claroa (Article 8 universal declaration of human rights, article 18 American Declaration of Human Rights and Article 25 American Convention on Human Rights) the articles referred to speak in short international : a Oeun APPEAL CASH AND FAST TO competent national tribunals for protection against acts that violate his fundamental rights recognized by the constitution or by law to . The rule makes sense as to a violation of a fundamental right regardless of this the State must act immediately and the individual will need to open the constitutional jurisdiction that constitutional justice duly attested and repair the violated right purpose. But in legal practice this fact does not occur because although the nature of habeas corpus as protection of fundamental rights must be immediately and send the relevant international standards, this budget immediacy is the essential characteristic that distinguishes it from the Habeas Corpus .


These items appear frequently throughout recipes and are great to have on hand to create tasty, low cost home-cooked meals in a flash.
These longer-lasting supplies can be bought in bulk or in larger sizes when on sale.
Spices go stale, so they are best bought in small amounts and whole when you can find them. Grinding only what you need (kids love using a mortar and pestle) helps them keep longer—and you don't have to use as much. Ethnic markets often stock spices at good prices. The best way to save on spices: grow your own!

PERTH AMBOY, N.J. — Investment advisor Monticello Asset Management LLC has originated $28.5 million in financing for The Alameda Center for Rehabilitation and Healthcare, a skilled nursing facility in the New York City suburb of Perth Amboy.
The bridge-to-HUD loan provided capital for acquisition of the property by a seniors housing owner-operator.
The property consists of an 82,205-square-foot, six-story structure containing the healthcare facility and a detached, 3,400-square-foot, one-story retail building. The facility contains 130 resident rooms and is licensed for 250 skilled nursing beds.


Yesterday you were five foot ten and today your toes don't touch the base of the bed.
You cocoon yourself deeper into the blankets, stuffing your face into fluff and exhaling deeply. Drummer Boy beats on and urges you to peel away the covers. You groan.
It happens too quickly for alterations. You slide into your jeans and fold them over once, twice, three times.
Your beat-up Integra waits for you. You hate this car, really, but it wasn't yours in the first place. You pull your seat forward until you can finally jam the clutch into the floorboard.
Back in the car, you tilt your rearview mirror down. You strain your neck muscles as you look behind.
You feel like you need a giraffe's neck to see over the dashboard, that or cushions taller and thicker than that princess who couldn't sleep because of a pea. She had it easy, you think, slamming the Integra door shut.
You catch a glimpse of yourself opening the door, your coat canopies past your knees.
"Total comes out to $15.27. Let me grab a bag for these bottles." You wave it away and twist off the first top, wondering if the bottle has to say DRINK ME in order to work. You ditch the Integra and swig back what's left of the bottles. It worked faster for Alice, you think, staggering towards an abandoned playground.
You heave yourself into the swing seat and pump your legs. You used to play a game where you flung off your shoes, but now they fly off effortlessly.
You lean back and open your eyes, wide and aware to the disorienting world below. The colors blur and you cling tightly to the cool chain. Drummer Boy beats rapidly as you soar in swoops, wondering if this is what it's like to fall apart, if this is what it's like to watch yourself shrink into something empty, broken, unfixable.
It would be easier if you could just melt away with the rain, but you're no witch. How long until there's nothing left?

This is such a fantastic short piece. Thanks for sharing.
