Middle East stability cannot be achieved unless Palestinian cause is comprehensively settled: Egypt FM
Ahram Online , Tuesday 29 Nov 2022
Egypt has affirmed that regional stability in the Middle East cannot be achieved unless the Palestinian cause is settled in a just and comprehensive way on the basis of the two-state solution and the relevant international legitimacy resolutions.
Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry (R) receives Palestinian Foreign Minister Riyadh Al-Maliki in Cairo, 29 November 2022. Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs

Egypt marked on Tuesday the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, which the UN General Assembly calls for observing on 29 November every year since 1978.
The 29 November date is of significance to the Palestinian people, for on that day, in 1947, the UNGA adopted the Partition Plan of Palestine, Resolution 181, which endorsed establishing an Arab state and a Jewish state in historic Palestine.
"Egypt marks this day in solidarity with the steadfast people of Palestine and in confirmation of the existence of the Palestinian cause alive in international forums and in the global conscience," the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement on Tuesday.
The ministry stressed that such global conscience stands in support of the Palestinian people in their just and legitimate demands as well as in support of their right to establish their independent state.
"The Palestinian cause will always remain the Arab's top issue. As part of their historical responsibility, Egypt's government and its people remain constantly supportive of the Palestinian cause as the central issue of the Arab world," the statement added.
The ministry also affirmed that Egypt will exert every effort until the Palestinian people obtain their legitimate right in establishing their independent state.
"The constants of the Egyptian position toward the Palestinian cause has not and will not change, and [Egypt's] commitment to the cause of Palestine, the Palestinian people, and Jerusalem and its Al-Aqsa mosque is an authentic commitment," the ministry said.
Egypt also stresses the necessity to put an end to the cycle of violence in the occupied Palestinian territories and to stop the unilateral measures that undermine fair and final settlement efforts, the ministry said.
The most significant among these unilateral measures include conducting illegitimate settlement activities, evicting and evacuating Palestinians in the city of Jerusalem, changing the demographic nature of the city, and dividing Al-Aqsa Mosque and its vicinity both temporally and spatially, the ministry stressed.
"Egypt, based on its historical responsibility and commitment to uphold the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people, will continue to exert its tireless and sincere efforts to resume the peace process and encourage the parties to come back to the negotiations table with the support of the international community and partners," the ministry added.
Palestine back to int'l focus
To mark the day, Egypt's Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry received in Cairo his Palestinian counterpart Riyad Al-Maliki.
During the meeting, both officials discussed coordinating efforts on the regional and global levels "to bring back the Palestinian cause to the international focus," the ministry said.
This comes through coordinating efforts with other Arab partners and international parties known for their support of the Palestinian rights, the ministry cited the FMs as saying.
The top Egyptian diplomat highlighted Egypt's continuous efforts with various international and regional parties to calm the situation, stop violence, and break the current stalemate in the peace process.
Such efforts aim to relaunch a serious negotiations track that leads to achieving comprehensive and just peace based on the two-state solution and international legitimacy resolutions of reference.
Palestine Resolution 181
The founding of the state of Israel in 1948 spelled disaster for the one million Palestinian inhabitants of historic Palestine.
In 1947, the UN Special Committee on Palestine (UNSCOP) approved "UN Resolution 181" calling for the partition of historic Palestine into two separate states, a Jewish State and an Arab State.
The decision was approved after member countries of the UN General Assembly voted on the partition plan, with 33 votes to 13 with 10 abstentions.
The two states would be joined by an "economic union" with the city of Jerusalem governed under an international administration, the UN partition plan stated.
Although Palestinians comprised about 67 percent of the population of Palestine, they were allocated far less land than their Jewish counterparts (33 percent of the total population) many of whom were recent immigrants from Europe.
Much to the dismay of the Palestinians, the plan allocated approximately 55 percent of the land to the Jewish state and just 42 percent to the Arab state.
Despite Jews owning only about 7 percent of the land in 1947, they were allocated more than half the area of historic Palestine.

MOBA, or Multiplayer Online Battle Arena is an increasingly popular game genre with lots and lots of followers around the world. Followers, who would love to be able to take the action with themselves, wherever they are. On the PC, there are numerous representatives of the genre - titles like DotA, League of Legends, Heroes of Newerth and so on. On mobile, though, the list isn't so long. In fact, we've only discovered three real MOBA games available for mobile devices. Thankfully, all three all quite good and all of them are available for both iOS and Android. Let's take a look!
This game is probably as close as you can get to a PC-like MOBA on a mobile device. Made by Gameloft, of course, Heroes of Order and Chaos is very feature-rich and offers different 30 heroes, character development and of course - tons of fast-paced MOBA action in 3v3 or 5v5 solo or multiplayer form! The game has rich, detailed graphics reminiscent of the best games in the genre and is also pretty well optimized, meaning that it runs very well even on older devices. If you are a MOBA fan, This game is an absolute must-have. It comes in free-to-play form, which some like and others hate, but that's the format the developer has chosen.
Legendary Heroes is a MOBA game that will certainly not disappoint that fans of the genre. It features all the necessary elements like online play and hero development, but there's also a single-player campaign mode for those want to learn how to play without taking too much beating. Graphics are once again wonderful, although we found the game to be a little bit more taxing on the hardware compared to Heroes of Order and Chaos. Still, nothing stops you from trying it out since it's also free-to-play.
No, this is not a joke, it is Plants War! In times when the irresponsible humans have polluted the Earth and abandoned it, bloodthirsty beasts have came out of hiding to dominate the planet. Earth's last hope? The plants! Take control of the heroic plant characters in this simple, but addicting MOBA game. Heroes, skills, experience, 3D... it's all there. Well, all is presented in a somewhat unconventional form, your heroes being plants and all, but believe us when we say that in the end, you may have spend more time playing Plants War than the other two more ambitious titles above.
Can you guys think of any other MOBA games or mobile? If you can, please share them with us in the comments!

Who To Watch In The AMA Pro Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson Series
The Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson Series is set to kick off this weekend at Daytona International Raceway, and the competition looks set to be as close as ever. In the contest's three-year history, the combined margin of victory stands at just over two tenths of a second. And last year's dogfight saw ninth position take the checkered flag less than eight tenths removed from the victory.
Each previous contest has developed into a full-blown drafting war, with the class' evenly matched machinery testing the tactical acumen of its pilots as they negotiate the high banks within inches of one another.
Nine of last year's AMA Pro Vance & Hines Harley Davidson Series top ten are back on a grid that will also be highlighted by the return of the class' original champion and a two-time winner of this race.
Leading the charge is none of than defending king Steve Rapp (No. 1 Suburban Motors Harley-Davidson XR1200). This will be the first time in Rapp's 16-year AMA Pro Road Racing career that he will carry the No. 1 plate into battle. He earned that honor in dominant fashion last season, winning six of nine races en route to the crown.
Last season's championship runner-up and Daytona winner Tyler O'Hara (No. 29 Josh Chisum Racing/Bartels Harley-Davidson XR1200) returns. O'Hara has finished in the class' top-three for three consecutive seasons and is motivated to finally claim the title for himself in 2014.
Also back is the class' 2012 champ, Michael Barnes (No. 34 Arai/Taichi/Sidi/D.E.A.D. Cycles/Wheeler Racing Inc. Harley-Davidson XR1200), who is seeking redemption following an up-and-down '13 title defense.
Rapp will also be tested by a pair of ultra-talented riders who didn't challenge him for last year's crown.Kyle Wyman (No. 33 KWR/Millennium Technologies Harley-Davidson XR1200) triumphed in the first two runnings of the AMA Pro Vance & Hines Harley Davidson Series Daytona opener and came within 0.075 seconds of making it three straight a year ago.
Additionally, former AMA Pro SuperBike superstar and the AMA Pro Vance & Hines Harley Davidson Series' first-ever champ, Danny Eslick (No. 69 Ruthless Racing Harley-Davidson XR1200) will be gunning for victory this weekend as he brings his thrilling style back to the class once again. He'll be splitting his time between the Harleys and his Rider's Discount Triumph Daytona 675R which he'll be riding in the Daytona Sportbike class, meaning he'll have a busy weekend racing the Daytona 200 and the seven-lap race for the Harleys.
The stacked field offers up several other potential winners, with Ben Carlson (No. 45 Suburban Motors Harley-Davidson XR1200), Shane Narbonne (No. 64 Six Four Motorsports Harley-Davidson XR1200), David Estok (No. 123 Thrashed Bike Racing Harley-Davidson XR1200), Nick Hansen (No. 97 Aerostar Global Suburban Motors Harley-Davidson XR1200), Josh Chisum (No. 10 Josh Chisum Racing/Bartels Harley-Davidson XR1200), and Barrett Long (No. 2 Longevity Racing Harley-Davidson XR1200) chief among them.
The seven-lap AMA Pro Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson Series opener will take place on Friday, March 14 at 2:15 p.m. EST. Fanschoice.tv will be live streaming the entire Daytona weekend.

Segway's New Vehicle Crashes Into Wall During CES Demo
January 13th 20__Kristin Houser__Filed Under: Advanced Transport
Segway/Victor Tangermann
Cut Short
If you didn't have trouble walking prior to trying out Segway's S-Pod, you might afterward.
During last week's Consumer Electronics Show, Segway gave attendees the chance to test out its self-balancing electric wheelchair for themselves — but had to cut the demo short after a journalist crashed the device into a wall, the BBC reports.
Slow Lane
The egg-shaped S-Pod has a maximum speed of 38 kilometers per hour (24 miles per hour). The demo chair, however, was limited to just 12 kilometers per hour (7.5 miles per hour) — though a crash at that speed was clearly still enough to put an end to the CES demo.
Segway told the BBC that no one was hurt during the crash. It apparently doesn't plan to take any chances with future versions of the chair, though, as Jeff Wu, Segway's director of marketing, said the company plans to add a safety belt to the design.
The BBC report doesn't name of the journalist in the S-Pod at the time of the demo-ending crash, but The Verge's Sean O'Kane did write that he hit a wall during his demo.
"At the very end of my ride, the joystick came loose, and the Segway egg (and I) crashed into the wall," he wrote. "Thankfully, there was no great fall."
That means either O'Kane was the journalist behind the joystick during the crash — or controlling the device isn't as easy as Segway might want you to believe.

The metabolic syndrome (MSynd) refers to a clustering of cardiovascular risk factors characterized by obesity, impaired glucose tolerance/type 2 diabetes, atherogenic dyslipidemia, and hypertension. The tendency that multiple risk factors were often present in the same individual prompted researchers to search for the underlying pathophysiology of the MSynd. In an inventory of hypotheses on causative mechanisms for the MSynd, plausible mechanisms include insulin resistance, leptin resistance, visceral obesity, beta-cell dysfunction, endothelial dysfunction, neuroendocrine origin (sympathetic overactivity and vagal impairment, reduced serotonergic responsivity, endocannabinoid system overactivity), genetic predisposition and fetal origin. The etiology of the syndrome is complex and each hypothesis may explain part of the etiological cascade. More studies are needed to elucidate relevance of and relationship between diverse hypotheses.

Demand grows for Norwich charity's picnic project
Norwich Christian charity ENYP provides food for thousands of families who struggle to make ends meet and put food on the table. Last year they fed 8,500 and a growing demand in 2019 means they expect this number to rise.
ENYP launched its 'Picnic project' initiative in 2018 and fed 8500 during the first year of the project. Estimates for 2019, and the growing demand for the project, indicates the numbers of beneficiaries will be even greater. There has been an 11% increase, since the same time as last year, in the number of picnic bags of food being distributed.
In the current financial climate the news and statistics evidence the difficulties that families face, particularly with food poverty. Growing numbers of families are unable to meet the basic needs of providing food, and this has an impact on the wellbeing of the family.
In almost 33% of families at least one member of the household will skip a meal in order to make ends meet, and the loss of free school meals during the school holidays can cost a family an additional £30-40 per week.
Young people across Norfolk eat on average only two portions of fruit or vegetables each day, and people accessing emergency food supplies from foodbanks increased by 19% compared to the previous year.
The Revd Danny Doran-Smith, ENYP Director, said "Through our work we see the impact of food poverty on families and the inability to meet life's basic needs an ever prevalent issue. Many families struggle because of financial hardship, and being able to provide a healthy and wholesome meal is not always possible, and as a result children's development and health can be affected. The Picnic Project has met real needs, and we continue to hear stories of how the food has reached families on the brink of despair. The project's reach has also grown with an increasing number of referrals from statutory services and voluntary agencies."
One mum recently said "every time I have nothing in the cupboards to feed the kids you guys turn up with food, it's a life saver".
Another said, "I have been off sick for a while and unable to provide food for my family – this project has been amazing, the food always turns up when I need it."
ENYP are grateful to those who they work in partnership with, including Norwich Foodbank. If you are interested in partnering with the Picnic Project, or are able to provide healthy donations of food or non-consumables they would like to hear from you.

Lap 23
The next June, Liz and I joined the gang at Road America for the Sprints. We had pitched our tents in Old Man Miller's field and were sitting around the campfire, wondering where Big Ralph was. He had told Eric he was coming up right after work on his motorcycle. It was getting to be late in the evening and there was still no sign of Big Ralph. We were all startled when he suddenly appeared out of the gloom of the night, and stepped into the light of the fire. He looked like hell, with his clothes torn in several places and blood everywhere. We had expected to hear him ride in on his bike, but heard nothing because he came in on foot.
He had stopped in Saukville for gas, but forgot to put up his kickstand before he rode off. Just north of Saukville, the old Route 57 has a series of bends as the road follows a river. When Big Ralph leaned the bike over in one of these bends, the kickstand hit the pavement and caused him to dump the bike, doing around 45 miles an hour. Big Ralph and the bike tumbled down the highway several yards and wound up in the ditch. The bike was in no condition to ride, so Big Ralph left it in the ditch and started hiking for Old Man Miller's field some 30 miles away.
He figured no one would pick him up the way he looked, so he did not try to hitchhike. But Wisconsin is full of friendly, helpful people and after he had walked for over an hour, a guy in a pick up truck stopped to see if he wanted a ride. Seeing Big Ralph's condition, he asked what in the world had happened to him. After hearing Big Ralph's story, he offered to take him to a hospital. Big Ralph said thanks, but he was not seriously hurt, just a bunch of scrapes and bruises. He accepted a ride to the campground, but only if he rode in the back of the truck so he would not get blood all over the Good Samaritan's seats.
Bunky had his pickup truck with him, and the next day he took Big Ralph back to the accident scene to retrieve his banged up motorcycle. After the races ended on Sunday, Bunky kindly drove Big Ralph and his motorcycle home to Chicago. This was very nice of Bunky because he lived in Dixon, Illinois at the time and Chicago is more than just a bit out of the way.
Big Ralph owned a bar on Elston Avenue on the northwest side of Chicago. When he and Bunky got there, Big Ralph invited him in and gave him a beer on the house, then another and another. In fact, a grateful Big Ralph said all the drinks for Bunky were on the house for as long as he wanted to stay. Bunky was lucky to make it home at all that night.
For the 1972 June Sprints, Jerry Hanson had entered in three different classes - A Production, Formula A and A Sports Racer. It must be nice to have money like that. He managed to win the AP race in his Corvette, but lost both the FA and ASR races. He made up for this by winning all three classes at the SCCA Runoffs that year - the only time one driver has ever won the National Championship in three classes in the same year.
Back then, the National Champion was given a nice Heuer chronograph along with the trophy to commemorate his win. Hanson had won the Runoffs several times and had enough watches, so he would donate them to the race staff. The chief of race staff would put the names of all the workers in a hat, draw names and give the lucky ones one of Hanson's watches. Having won a record 27 National Championships in all, Hanson gave away a lot of watches. Being a corner worker, I thought this was a classy thing for Hanson to do.
The July race in 1972 was another double-header with the Trans Am running on Saturday and the F-5000 race on Sunday. The Trans Am was a far cry from the series it was just two short years ago. There were no factory-backed teams at all this year. AMC still supported Penske but in NASCAR, not Trans Am. The top team in the Trans Am this year was the Roy Woods AMC Javelin team. He had a car for himself and another for George Follmer. The rest of the field was made up of independents and SCCA club racers. Despite the absence of factory-sponsored teams, the race had a huge field of 42 cars.
The race turned out to be not all that exciting. Follmer, the biggest name in the field, started from the pole and had an early lead, but dropped out with engine trouble after the second pit stop. The race was won by Warren Tope in a Mustang. Recalling my old Firebird, I was pleased to see the Pontiac Firebird of Milt Minter finish second.
Saturday night back in Old Man Miller's field, Big Ralph once again volunteered to look for firewood. Bunky, Jimmy and Eric were busy hearing all about the new pace maker Old Man Miller had just had installed, so I went with Big Ralph to make sure there was no more fencing removed. As we were walking down the road, we came upon some black and white posts guarding a drop off into a ditch where a culvert ran under the road. There was no shoulder, and today you would see a section of guard rail in a situation like that. Back in those days, the highway department used 6-inch diameter posts set fairly deeply in the ground as a guard to keep cars from driving over the edge.
Big Ralph said "These don't belong to no farmer" and put his massive arms around one and began to try and pull it from the ground. I watched in amusement and said nothing, because as strong as I knew Big Ralph to be, I was sure he would not be able to pull out that post. Big Ralph grunted a couple of times and, to my astonishment, that post came right up out of the ground. In quick succession, he plucked four more from the ground and declared we had enough firewood. It was all I could do to carry one back, while Big Ralph easily carried the other four, two under each arm. These we also hid behind the tents until after dark.
Sunday's support race for the F 5000 feature was another round of the Two-Five Challenge. Peter Brock was back with three Datsun 510's. He had one for each of his regular drivers, John Morton and Mike Downs, plus a third car for guest driver Sam Posey. The rest of the grid was filled mostly by Alpha Romeo GTA's. Brocks 510's had won four of the five races so far that season, so we were not surprised when they wound up sweeping the first three grid positions. Morton was on the pole with Posey alongside on the first row. Downs was inside on the second row.
Despite his impressive qualifying run, Posey did not fare well in the race, breaking a rocker arm after just seven laps. Morton and Downs ran on like clockwork for another one, two finish. Morton went on to win the series championship for the second year in a row.

In the sixties and seventies, there was a soft drink company called White Rock. They packaged their beverages in a green bottle with white print. The company logo, which was prominently displayed on each bottle, depicted a naked, curly-haired nymph squatting on a white rock blowing a horn. While we were sitting in Canada Corner after the Two-Five Challenge race, we heard a horn blowing. To the east of where we sat, about midway up the hill, there was a large boulder protruding from the hillside and there, squatting on the boulder was the White Rock Nymph!
It was dressed only in what is best described as a diaper. It had curly blonde locks and was blowing on a horn, just like the nymph on the White Rock bottles. It was much larger than I would have expected a nymph to be, but then I had never actually seen a nymph before. The nymph remained perched there most of the day and then, as suddenly as it had appeared, it disappeared. One moment the nymph was there, blowing its horn, and the next time I looked, it was gone. We never saw the nymph again. OK, now you're thinking that Terry had over-served himself that day, and that may be true, but we all saw the nymph. I swear we did!
It may seem that we never watched the races, but we did. We saw lots of great racing, but the cars are not on the track constantly, so we had to have something to amuse us between the on-track activities. One group of grillers seated above us decided to fill this dead time with a race of their own. They got out some onions and raced them by rolling them down the hill.
This soon attracted a crowd and spectators, all cheering for their favorite, lined the course the onions followed down the hill. The cheers would even drown out the sound of the White Rock Nymph's horn. Other grillers came over to enter their onions in the races. It was soon apparent that the Bermuda onions outclassed the yellow and Vandalia onions. A poor little yellow onion did not stand a chance against the larger Bermudas, so they were quickly divided into classes to level the playing field.
In the Bermuda class, there was still one onion that dominated. It was about the same size as the other Bermudas, but it always seemed to win. There was much discussion as to why this onion was faster than the rest and several opinions were put forward. Much of the speculation centered around relative weights until Jimmy settled it when he said, "That's because it has a special racing skin." Nothing got past our Jimmy.
The F5000 race seemed a bit anti-climactic after the thrilling onion races. Pole position was won by Skip Barber, who had entered a Formula One March 711. This was allowed by the rules, and it was a small engine compared to the big V 8's driven by everyone else. Barber and the March proved themselves worthy by winning the pole position. Jerry Hanson was second on the grid, followed by Cannon, Hobbs, Redman and Posey.
Hanson took the lead at the start. Barber's F1 March passed Hanson for first, but began smoking on lap seven, so he shut it off, finishing last in the heat. Graham McRae, who was leading the series in points, swept by Hanson and won the first heat. Posey led the first laps of the second heat, but we were more impressed with Barber's march through the field from last place in his F1 March. He passed McRae on lap 13 and went on to win the heat. McRae, however, was the overall winner, having won the first heat and finishing second in the second heat. Still, I thought it was pretty neat to see and hear a real F1 car race on my favorite track.

How to navigate cybersecurity in a 5G world
AT&T released a report on Monday identifying the major security gaps organizations must address with the rise of 5G networking.
While 72.5% of security professionals worldwide rated their level of concern for the 5G's impact on security as high or medium-high, only 22% said they believed their current policies are ready for 5G, the report found.
The AT&T Cybersecurity Insights Report: Security at the Speed of 5G surveyed 704 security practitioners from North America, India, Australia, and the UK to determine how prepared larger organizations are for the security implications of 5G.
SEE: Special report: How 5G will transform business (free PDF) (TechRepublic)
5G promises increased bandwidth, higher speeds, with low latency, but it also brings an influx of cybersecurity concerns. The majority of respondents (76%) said they expected completely new security threats to surface from the 5G world, the report found.
Nearly all respondents expect to make 5G-related security changes within the next five years, with 35% saying they will start in the next one to two years. Regardless of timeline, 78% of security professionals said their policies would need to be changed because of 5G, according to the report.
Top 5G security concerns
To help professionals understand potential new threats, the report identified the following major security concerns surrounding 5G:
1. Larger attack surface due to the massive increase in connectivity (44%) 2. Greater number of devices accessing the network (39%) 3. The extension of security policies to new types of internet of things (IoT) devices (36%) 4. Authentication of a larger number and wider variety of devices (33%) 5. Insufficiency of perimeter defenses (27%)
While these concerns are legitimate, the report found bigger concerns exist surrounding the other technologies utilized in the deployment of 5G.
The first technology is virtualization, which includes software-defined networking (SDN) and network functions virtualization (NFV). As stated in the report, "enterprises will need to take advantage of virtualization to make the network nimbler and more responsive, with the ability to provide just-in-time services."
While virtualization is crucial for 5G, only 29% of respondents said they planned to implement security virtualization and orchestration in the next five years. But, the power of virtualization allows virtualized security to be quickly deployed to various network locations and automatically respond when new attacks are discovered, the report found.
"Security virtualization could be the most crucial advancement related to 5G security, for both the provider and their enterprise customers. Enterprise IT is becoming more distributed, and through virtualization networking is following suit. Security needs to follow that trend," according to the report.
Endpoint security is also a concern for 5G users. As more 5G devices are connected to the network, such as Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) nodes, authentication and certification becomes paramount. However, only 33% of respondents said they planned to implement tighter network access controls in the next five years, and only 37% said they were creating new systems for device authentication, the report found.
A zero-trust security model could help address these concerns, as it would continually check a user's presence and behavior, regardless if the user is a human or machine. Enterprises are embracing zero-trust, with 68% saying they have implemented it or are in the process, but only 33% said they have multifactor authentication (MFA) in place, the report found.
The last area of concern includes vulnerability management. Only 33% of organizations said they had implemented asset discovery and management and 30% said they had put into effect vulnerability assessment and remediation. Another 33% of respondents said they had added network security threat analytics, which is a crucial tool for the complexity of 5G networks, according to the report.
Steps for a more secure 5G network
To help organizations tackle all of these concerns, the report identified the components of a solid 5G network security plan:
As more 5G devices enter the network, organizations must prepare for the onslaught of added security threats, according to the report.

New recycle center starts off strong

SIERRA VISTA — The recycling market across the globe has seen a major shift in recent years. Cities and towns all over the country are rethinking the way they recycle and working to come up with solutions that meet the demand by residents for recycling.
The City of Sierra Vista is not immune to the restriction of certain recycle materials by China that triggered the global recycling "crisis."
In May, the city council voted to eliminate curbside pick-up for recycling starting in July, opting to set up an alternative to keep recycling alive in the area.
On Monday, the city officially opened its new recycling drop off center located at the Transfer Station at 7201 E. Highway 90.
Though it will take some time for city officials to get a sense of the logistics for the new set-up, the first couple days of operation saw a steady flow of Cochise County residents.
Public Works Operations Manager Richard Cayer said that so far, things are running smoothly and there was a good number of people to show up.
"It was busy; it was probably about over 70 vehicles yesterday," he said. "We didn't ask where the customers were from but based on the conversations it seemed like the majority were from outside the city, in the county."
The new center is not just open to citizens of Sierra Vista. It's open to anyone in the county who wants to recycle and it's no charge to the residents.
"Its very customer friendly and it's for anyone who wants to come," Cayer said. "We are looking at marketing it next to Bisbee because so many people in Bisbee work in Sierra Vista either on Fort or the hospital and they can come in the morning, drive through, pop the lid on their vehicle, we take their stuff and they drive out; they are here two minutes on the way to work and they can recycle knowing that those materials will actually be recycled."
To set the drop off center up, the city partnered with Republic Services, Inc, one of the nation's leaders in recycling and solid waste services.
"Our role is to accept and separate and sort all recyclable materials into rolls offs and Republic Services will transport them, market them and get those commodities to vendors," Cayer said. "The agreement we have is we get half the revenue of the commodities."
"So, whatever they sell, they have an incentive to maximize the price and shop around for the best deal."
Any revenue the city brings in through the recycling will be used to offset the costs of operating the recycling center.
Jake Anderson, general manager for Republic Services based in Tucson, said they are excited to partner with Sierra Vista to offer residents of the county an option to recycle.
"Sierra Vista made the decision to go away from residential curbside, we connected and offered an opportunity to do more specific commercial, large container options for them," he said. "The education piece is important for the public to understand recycling is not what it used to be."
"It's more expensive than trash and that wasn't the case for many, many years."
Anderson said that because Republic Services is so established, they have a network of vendors and resources that help to achieve the maximum return on recycled commadies.
"Two years ago I sold more than 90 percent of my recycling at a high revenue mark, high volume mark but that's changed and we don't take any to China to anymore," he said. "It leaves me to find new buyers at less volume, less money, and it's scattered in the U.S. and internationally so it's more difficult logistically now as it's not as consistent."
"We have a lot of resources and relationships so we can leverage those relationships and if we can't sell a recycled material in the Southwest maybe there's a new papermill in Indianapolis that does."
To ensure the smallest contamination rate in the commodities collected at the recycle center, shifts are staffed by two Department of Corrections employees who sort through each bag to separate items. There is also always a city employee supervising and working directly with residents who stop by.
"The key right now is making sure the materials get sorted correctly and contamination is as close to 0 as we can get it," Cayer said. "We are going to have receipts, we are going to have a chain of custody on these materials so we will be able to see that it went from us to Republic Services to the vendor and ended up as a product."
"We're going to be able to guarantee all this is being recycled into new products and that's what people want; they want to recycle realistically."
Cayer said the biggest issue they have faced with the new center in the first couple days is just some misunderstandings on the types of items that can be accepted. Anytime someone brings unaccepted materials, like paper products, they let the person know alternative places to recycle the item or will throw it away for them.
"People coming out here, it's amazing that there's so many things they take the time to recycle and even if it's not accepted right now they want to know where they can bring it," he said. "So many people are really passionate about recycling and we want to make sure that were doing our part to make that happen."
City Public Information Officer Adam Curtis spoke to the importance of recycling to residents of the city and Sierra Vista's desire to be environmentally responsible.
"Despite challenges that cities and communities, even globally, are experiencing, Sierra Vista is not giving up on recycling," he said. "It's discouraging to read about the recycling market and we wanted to do what we can to make a difference and encourage residents to not feel discouraged."
"We're not in it to make money, we don't want to increase rates. The citizens care and it's the right thing to do."
The city will be allowing residents who have blue recycle bins from pick up service to keep the bins because the cost and labor that would have been involved in collecting them all would have been too high.
Residents can schedule to get their blue bin picked up by the city by calling 520-458-5775.
To help inspire residents to find new purposes for their blue bins, the city will be partnering with Ace Hardware to hold an upcycle contest.
"We don't want to see the blue bins end up in the landfill and we think this contest can inspire people to think about repurposing and reusing," Curtis said. "It's meant to reinvigorate the community and inspire them to be creative and continue to think about repurposing items."
The contest will launch on July 15. Residents can submit video and photos of their repurposed blue bins by using the hashtag #RenewYourBlue on social media or filling out an online form. The submissions will appear in an online gallery and the public will be able to vote for their favorites once per day.
The contest is tentatively set to run about two months, including a week-long voting period at the end.
Ace Hardware, Broxton's Coffee and Rainey Pain & Performance have all donated prizes. Curtis is still looking for businesses or organizations to sponsor prizes. Anyone interested can contact him at PIO@SierraVistaAZ.gov by July 12.
The city will continue to evaluate the logistics of the recycle drop off center to continue to improve the process and Cayer said they will be moving their existing glass recycling program, currently located at the Public Works facility, to the recycle drop off center so everything is in one place.

It's been a while since Glencoe Swale was photo-chronicled. The colored stars on the map mark the areas that were visited on the first leg of the photo shoot.
Only those who know will recognize this little plot of fenced land for what it really is… the headwater of Glencoe Swale.
Cattails and other wetland-suited plants grow lush inside the fenced area.
Protected grates mark the spot where waters are directed on their way through culverts under NE Starr Boulevard.
NE Starr Boulevard can be seen next to a retention pond built to capture runoff from future construction. Hillsboro's growth plan will transform acres of what was farmland into development. The process has begun… at the mid-left side of this photo orange construction fencing heralds where fertile fields will grow parking lots and sprout industrial architecture.
OK, Jane, you have me hooked! When do we see the rest of the star spectrum?
Hi Ken, that's a good question. I've grabbed my camera a few times and have been waylaid by weather, or too late in the day for good lighting. I'm anxious to get out… soon.
Thanks for the tour, Jane. I hope your week's going well.
Thank you, Janet. Been a bit crazy. I'm buried in a communications project to encourage attendance at an important meeting regarding changes in the floodplain dynamics of our little wetland.
