Rewilding India, One Parcel Of Land At A Time
First published in Sanctuary Asia, Vol. 42 No. 10, October 2022

We are now in the Decade of Ecosystem Restoration. Launched in 2021 by the United Nations, it is a rallying call for the large-scale global protection and revival of ecosystems – particularly degraded and destroyed ones. The necessity of ecosystem restoration has been clearly explicated over the decades: it is one of the most effective solutions to the most pressing issues that humanity faces today. The latest IPCC report ranks it as one of the top five measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2030.
How much do we protect and restore? Based on the most up-to-date scientific research and enduring traditional knowledge, we know that if around half of the ecoregions that house our planet's biodiversity are protected, we can avoid breaching some of the key planetary boundaries. And so, it is common sense that we respect the sovereignty of nature and leave her at least Half the Earth.

These uplifting and hearteningly sensible visions for our shared future need ambassadors – people whose efforts are locally attuned to the social and ecological realities of where they are.
Though forests form around 20 per cent of India's landmass, less than five per cent are part of the Protected Area (PA) network. These PAs tend to be relatively small, fragmented (whilst frequently being under threat of further fragmentation on account of developmental pressures), and lonely tracts of land. Forested land surrounding these PAs, often modified for human use, holds immense potential to become wildlife corridors, ancillary habitats for wildlife, and storehouses of local biodiversity. A rewilded parcel of land adjoining a protected forest also increases the availability of forest-based resources to humans and livestock, thus reducing the pressure on Protected Areas, which are supposed to be free of anthropogenic disturbances.
Tourism, when undertaken sustainably, strategically and thoughtfully, presents an economically viable, low-footprint, and high-impact solutions to the urgent need to restore and rewild even larger parcels of land. It is a porous industry, which brings in huge revenue and employs thousands of people. When undertaken in partnership with local governments, NGOs and community members, tourism can become a strong backbone for rewilding initiatives while also hugely benefiting local communities.
Individuals and small organisations who have spent years restoring degraded swathes of land, where they now invite visitors for a different experience, have a lot of valuable insights on both the social and biological aspects of conservation and restoration, and provide a portal to the average citizen into a new story of humanity where rewilding is a way of life and the status quo. We speak to a few such people for our cover story.
Jabarkhet Nature Reserve, Uttarakhand
Located a few kilometres from the hill station of Mussoorie, the 100 acre Jabarkhet Nature Reserve (JNR) is a soothing panacea against the disquietingly polluted and increasingly concretised tourist traps in the area – which, ironically, draws flocks of visitors for its natural beauty.
Over a decade ago, Dr. Sejal Worah, a conservationist and sustainable development expert with 25 years of experience who currently works as the Programme Director at WWF India, returned to her hometown of Mussoorie after several years abroad, and was shocked at the state of the environment, the uncontrolled development, the loss of forest cover, and the general neglect of the area that is today part of JNR. In 2013 she approached the landowner, a Mumbai-based businessman, and convinced him that restoration and rewilding of his land would be a legacy for future generations. He did her one better – he convinced her that if the concept of a private nature reserve was to be successful, it should be a self-sustaining business. Shortly after, they began a joint venture to set up the first private nature reserve in Uttarakhand with the aim of demonstrating the links between conservation, sustainable tourism, and local livelihood development.

It is exciting for them to see that a leopard used the same trail just an hour before them, or that a pair of martens was playing at the very spot just minutes ago.

The first year brought many learnings for Sejal and her team. They cleared the site of the reserve of hundreds of kilogrammes of garbage, and removed alien and exotic plant species from the forest area. They successfully convinced locals that regulating resource use by curbing activities such as overgrazing, unregulated tree felling and lopping, hunting, and the unchecked collection of other natural resources, was in their best interest in the long run.
With the help of many experts who volunteered their time, camera traps were placed around the area, and surveys of flora and fauna were conducted. The team decided that the most non-intrusive way to generate self-sustaining revenue for the reserve was by promoting guided nature walks. Sejal and her team identified and demarcated walking trails, placed sign boards, and designed trail maps and guidebooks. They also trained a group of local youth to become nature guides to lead the walks. This has proven to be one of the best outcomes of this rewilding project; the youth are passionate, committed, and enthusiastic, and their job earns them a lot of respect among visitors and the local community alike. A number of locals have also been employed in the management and maintenance of the reserve.
Within just a few years of removing anthropogenic pressures and giving the forest a chance to recover, the JNR team have seen the regeneration of ground vegetation; after creating water sources, allowing grasses to recover, not lopping oak trees, and allowing berries and wild fruits to flourish, and have even seen the return of bears – which had not been reported from the area for 40 years. Over time, they have documented the presence of almost all large mammals found in this part of the Himalaya. It is clear that though it is small, the reserve acts as an important refuge and corridor for wildlife.

With the low-key marketing of a limited range of ecotourism products such as themed, guided nature walks and individual and institutional memberships, JNR has managed to become a well-known offbeat tourism destination. They now break even in terms of operating costs, and were even able to generate a small corpus that kept them going through the pandemic.
The local economy has flourished both from direct employment and indirect benefits from visitors. Homestays have cropped up in the area, dhabas have been upgraded to cafes, cloud kitchens have appeared, and taxi drivers benefit from a new destination. They have also involved villages in the area to be part of the venture by developing circuits where visitors trek through and each one is able to offer a meal or a service for a direct income. They also share a percentage of the tourist fee from such walks with the village ecotourism committee.
For visitors, the appeal of this place is that they get to immerse themselves in nature and learn about the wildlife in the Himalaya, not far from the popular town of Mussoorie. The local nature guides take them on a walk that is tailored to the interest and experience of the group. From serious birders and photographers to someone who has never experienced a walk in a forest or a hill climb – all are welcome. They share the camera trap images with visitors in real time. It is exciting for them to see that a leopard used the same trail just an hour ago.
Sejal and her team noticed an increase in hunting and tree cutting during the pandemic when there were no visitors to the reserve for nearly a year. She believes this makes a strong case for well-managed, low footprint tourism to play a role in supporting conservation. In the future, they would like to expand the area rewilded under JNR for increased impact. Sejal looks forward to the day that this beautiful reserve thrives under the management of a local team.

Badlav, Rajasthan
In 2019, a young male tiger named T-104 killed an old woman at the opening of a ravine in Kundera village, close to Ranthambhore National Park. Shortly after, he was tranquillised, radio-collared, and taken back into the national park by the Forest Department. Some time after this incident, he was again found outside the park, sans radio collar. A stretch of private land bordering the national park, with sufficient forest cover, prey and distance from human settlements, became his refuge during that time.
That land belongs to Aditya Dicky Singh – a wildlife photographer turned conservationist who as our editor, Bittu Sahgal once put it, is a veritable encyclopaedia on all things Ranthambhore – and his wife, artist Poonam Singh. The couple first fell in love with this place in 1998 and from 1999, over 20 years, the couple have bought 35 acres of degraded land once owned by subsistence farmers, that flanked the national park, close to a village called Badlav. Over the last two decades, the couple has been busy fencing the property to protect it from wandering cattle, removing exotic and invasive flora, and allowing the land to restore itself to its original Aravalli landscape. Some well thought out landscaping interventions by the couple have given the land a chance to retain water for long periods of time. Today, the two watering holes in these forests are some of the last available sources of water for wildlife come the summer months. An aerial view of the property reveals an oasis of green, stark against the patches of brown, dry land surrounding it.
With the Ranthambhore Tiger Reserve as this private forest's 'seed bank', the land functions as an outward projection of this Protected Area, acting as a buffer zone between the national park just across their boundary wall and the farmholdings on the other side. Once the native flora came back, this forest has turned into a protective buffer zone for the reserve, often frequented by tigers, particularly during the summer season.
Ranthambhore National Park, where hundreds of species of wild flora and fauna have been recorded, has, over the years, been flourishing as one of India's most popular tiger destinations. This mushrooming tourism economy presents a tremendous opportunity to develop pastoral and agricultural lands bordering the reserve in a sustainable manner such as that undertaken by the Singhs at their Badlav forest property. A team of guards from the local community was employed to ensure the protection of wildlife here. Besides tigers, leopards, nilgai, sambar, wild pig, small mammals and birds are also routinely found on site.
The funds needed to undertake this rewilding project came from a very successful wildlife lodge called The Ranthambhore Bagh, which Aditya and Poonam ran from 1998 to 2019. With 12 rooms as well as comfortable tents for wildlife enthusiasts and professionals, they would offer a wide range of activities such as hikes, nature walks, safaris, birdwatching, and local village tours. Many of their regular visitors have turned into lifelong friends who would visit a couple of times a year. Therefore, when they closed the lodge in 2019 and began constructing their home on a one acre plot nearby, they made sure to build in five guest rooms so that they can function as a homestay that is open mainly to their longtime regulars.

Wildernest, Goa
Wildernest's wildly successful two-decade journey is testimony to how, when the end goal uncompromisingly remains protecting forests, supporting local livelihoods, and giving biodiversity ample opportunities to thrive, tourism can become a powerful tool to enable that vision. It demonstrates how spaces, which are constructed in harmonious consonance with their surroundings are likely to provide a far more delightful experience than 'cookie-cutter' tourism infrastructure, that is detached from its local, cultural and ecological context.
In the late 1990s, Captain Nitin Dhond came across a parcel of land nestled in the valley of Lasni Temb, the highest peak at Chorla ghat, a vital wildlife corridor in the Western Ghats, which had been badly degraded thanks to resource extraction activities such as timber, mining, and monoculture plantations for cash crops. He put his entire earnings into buying the land over the next few years, and gathered a team of die-hard nature lovers and seasoned ecologists such as Nirmal Kulkarni to envision a collective dream that came to be known as Wildernest.
Their objective was to create a sustainable venture, which would conserve the forest biodiversity of the region and also bring to limelight the natural and cultural wealth of Goa's Western Ghats. They wanted to create a place where nature conservation would take centre stage, with material comforts matching international standards of hospitality.
From forest officials, village elders and local NGOs to architects and hospitality greats, the Wildernest team was offered unconditional support and guidance when it was most needed, from those that recognised that the project would shape the path for ecotourism in Goa.
"Responsible Tourism by definition benefits the traveller, the industry, and the destination. More importantly. ... local communities, the true custodians of tourist destinations, must become the direct beneficiaries of the unique experiences only they can offer."
- Mandip (Mandy) Singh Soin, Founding President, Responsible Tourism Society of India.
More than 200 men and women from village communities spanning the states of Goa, Karnataka and Maharashtra, toiled for two years to create Wildernest. They had to first harvest rainwater from a few kilometres away and generate their own electrical power. Social workers and environmentalists guided their founding principles and provided them with field staff for operations. Today, the resort supports 300 families directly or indirectly.
Ecologically, the region is of great importance as it is the catchment area for the tributaries of the Mhadei river – the Haltar nullah and the Valvanti river, among others. The mixed moist deciduous and semi evergreen forests nurture and support a criss-cross network of rivulets and streams that go on to support a vast diversity of life forms, many of which are endemic and threatened in the Western Ghats. A 'wildlife corridor' that allows for the free movement of large mammals like tigers, leopards and wild dogs, the Chorla ghats area of the Mhadei region is wedged between the tri-state boundaries of Goa, Karnataka and Maharashtra. This area is ecologically important but rich in minerals too – a dangerous trait for any forest.
Wildernest Nature Resort is based on the sound principle of 'minimal interference'. The team wanted to create a natural aesthetic and infrastructure that blends well with the location, a task that took years to plan and execute, and two years to construct. Today, with 22 eco-cottages that have lofty views of the surrounding Ghat and the majestic twin Vazra Sakla waterfalls directly in sight, a restaurant serving local cuisine, a beautiful ionized infinity pool that uses minimal chlorine and an Ayurvedic rejuvenation centre, the resort provides an array of experiences including nature walks, treks, village visits and folk dances. Two decades after it started operations, and having declared its 900 acres of forest a private sanctuary called Swapnagandha Valley, Wildernest has not only protected vital forests but has also succeeded in curbing wildlife poaching to a large extent, and saved the catchment area of the Haltar nullah and Valvanti river. In keeping with its 'minimal interference' policy, the resort itself takes up only eight acres on this sprawling property.
Wildernest offers an economically viable alternative as a space for nature tourism rather than activities like mining and timber, which ravage forest lands. The project has been at the forefront of promoting social forestry timber like acacia and other recycled wood and materials for infrastructure, a trend that is being emulated across South India now. In addition, they have their own bio-waste plants that create manure, a strict implementation of plastic reduction as well as a recycle and reuse policy.

Initiating wildlife documentation and research projects with the help of field biologists and ecologists, they have helped generate vital data on the flora and fauna of the region. Since they began this project, three new species of caecilians have been discovered here besides two species of frogs and a scorpion!
A Mhadei Research Centre has also been created with over 100 acres of pristine forests protected there: it is dedicated to the conservation of the local natural and cultural heritage. The centre works with individual researchers and organisations, local communities and students to address various issues that seek to disturb the ecosystem and alter it. Through dialogue and field research, the centre, along with a team of volunteers and researchers, continues its work in the region and aims to conserve this important global biodiversity hotspot for posterity. They have also commissioned projects to preserve the iconographic art of the region and, along with historians, are trying to create awareness of its cultural diversity and the oral history tradition.
Today, the project is considered a role model for ecotourism by some of the country's best-known conservationists as well as hospitality experts.

Jadav Payeng: The Forest Man of India
How Jadav Payeng turned a 1,300 acre stretch of desertified land near his home in Assam along the Brahmaputra river, into a forest, is a true hero's journey, a tale for the rewilding canon! A deep love for animals and a visceral understanding of nature led him to start planting saplings in 1979. Not random planting, but carefully choosing what to play, and where to plant. And he took his cue by studying ants and other creatures large and small. The seeds they carried, he collected. When tiny sprouts grew from their droppings, he protected them. He did this every day for 30 years, all by himself. As the forest flourished under his loving care, locals began to call this safe haven for wildlife 'Molai', after a nickname given to Jadav as a child. After his hard work was discovered by a journalist in 2007, support for Payeng's work began to pour in from far and wide. Former President Dr. Abdul Kalam officially gave him the title 'The Forest Man' on World Earth Day in 2010.
Today, Molai forest draws a large number of migratory bird species and is home to deer, elephants, rhinos, tigers, numerous reptiles and hundreds of birds. A Padma Shri awardee, Jadav credits only the power of nature for achieving this wondrous feat. He has travelled around the country and the world with the message that each of us can do the same as he did. All it takes is patience, persistence and a true understanding of the priceless gifts that only nature can impart.
Jadav's patient nurturing of a degraded land into a thriving forest reminds us that we don't need to acquire huge tracts of land or have degrees in environmental science to become restorers and rewilders of our land. In 2020, he signed an agreement with the NGO Fundacion Azteca to work as a collaborator on initiatives in Mexico, which endeavour to plant seven million trees in the country. "I'll plant till my last breath," Payeng has been quoted as saying.
Fringe Ford, Kerala
For over 110 years, the Fringe Ford area has been a logging concession and plantation. It is located in a horseshoe valley that has some of the headwaters that flow into the Kabini river – one of the only tributaries that originates in Wayanad and flows east and drains into the Bay of Bengal. It's a 527 acre parcel of land, and this year the team has added 45 more acres of the neighbouring tea estate, making a grand total of 572 acres.
The enormity, biodiversity, and the sheer remote wilderness was the primary draw for conservationist Ahmed Chamanwala to set up an ecotourism venture there 16 years ago. Today, they have dedicated 90 per cent of the land to conservation, supported entirely by profits made from their five-room wildlife lodge.
When Ahmed first arrived on the land, poaching, tree felling, illicit liquor manufacturing, and growing of narcotic substances was rampant in the forest. The estate was a conduit and a safe buffer for these gangs to operate in the impenetrable wilderness. Fringe Ford was born as a response to this, with the team's main commitment being to contribute to conserving the landscape. Ever since their wildlife lodge was set up, these destructive activities have completely stopped within the estate and surrounding forests.
Being surrounded by the Aralam Wildlife Sanctuary (which is a notified tiger reserve) and Wayanad Tiger reserve, an abundance of wildlife uses Fringe Ford as a corridor and safe haven. The decline in plantation activities over the years has positively affected the security and safety of these creatures. In the initial years, conflict with poachers, tree felling, and illicit liquor manufacturing mafia were the team's biggest hurdles; threats to the team members' lives and damage to property was the norm. But they stood their ground, and steadily built a relationship of trust and communication with the local Forest Department, which, over time, has made a positive impact for the flora and fauna.
As Ahmed puts it, these lands are the last frontiers in their battle against the wave of development that engulfs every part of India. He says that population pressures can only be deflected with initiatives such as Fringe Ford, which lie at the intersection of conservation and sustainable development. He opines that private land participation in conservation of forests is the only answer for a burgeoning India.
It was the enormity, biodiversity and the sheer remote wilderness of the land that drew Ahmed Chamanwala to the property that is now Fringe Ford. Located in a horseshoe valley that has some of the headwaters that flow into the Kabini river, the conservation of over 90 per cent of the land is being supported by a five-room wildlife lodge. Photo Courtesy: Fringe Ford.
Fringe Ford has a well-trained staff that hail from nearby villages, who take guests for guided wilderness walks within the boundaries of Fringe Ford, that cover all vulnerable areas of the restored forest.
The contribution by visitors patronising Fringe Ford for biodiversity is immense. There are 27 streams that originate in the valley and no soil runoff as the forest is healthy. With the plantation activity not operational, the use of any fertilisers or pesticides has been eliminated. Wildlife is at ease here; there are no fences, trenches or walls that interfere with their movements.
Being in a valley in India where you are cut off from the familiar sensoryscape of human habitation, the experience of not hearing any synthetic sound and artificial lights is priceless! The only two activities they offer are a sitting safari or walking safari (a sitting safari is when the wildlife comes to you around the bungalow). These non-motor centric activities have the lowest carbon footprint.
In the future, Ahmed and his team aim to continue keeping their footprint at below 0.5 per cent of the landscape they are in. They plan to add three more rooms to their property, and hopefully, will add more land under conservation. Ahmed also wants Fringe Ford to be a base for Technology in Conservation – tying in his work as Executive Director of Forest Conservation (India) with Grene Robotics – and support low impact tech that can be used in various conservation landscapes.
These visionary conservation stories leave us with a few common takeaways: one, that conservation can become economically viable when built into the founding principles of any business model. Two, that to meet the ambitious but urgent goals of restoring degraded lands, rewilding must become an attractive alternative livelihood option for local communities. Three, the rationale behind rewilding is bolstered by a multitude of stakeholder interests with shared goals and values. And finally, that a successful rewilding project seems to always be rooted in specificity: specific relationships between ecosystem and biodiversity; between land, water and people; and between each of us and the journey of 'meaning-making' we undertake when we begin to discover that to be a visitor, steward or member of the wild are one and the same thing.

Most people know that seeing-eye dogs are some of the best companions for people who are blind. While service pets of this type have been around for almost a generation, there has been an increased interest in making the same pets available for people who have hearing loss. This has led to a great deal of specialized training occurring over the last decade, resulting in pets that can help their owner navigate their lives much better. In this article we will look at the training that they undergo as well as how they can help their partners.
Each hearing dog is trained to understand sounds that will help them alert to their owner's needs. This usually takes between four and six months of time, during which the dog's temperament will be established. Then, they are trained to identify, locate, and bring awareness to common sounds that occur throughout their home. After they are trained to respond to all of these sounds, they are placed with their partner and given annual training in order to keep their skills sharp.
There are many stringent requirements that you must meet if you want to be eligible to own one of these hearing dogs. The first thing that you need to do is be 18 years old or more so that you can request an application. Then your home must be inspected to be sure that it provides adequate living conditions and will not be hampered by finances. You must also identify a friend or family member who can help you with the first stages of home training. Once you have met all of these requirements, then you may be awarded a dog after purchasing one. After this, you must still attend initial canine training as well as annual refreshment courses.
After the dog has been placed with their hearing partner, there will be a time of getting used to one another and personalized care training. This helps to make sure that both dog and person is a good match for each other. After this bond has been established, then you will see that they offer many different ways of helping the person with hearing impairment that fall outside of their training.
In the event that you are walking outside and come across a situation that is unfamiliar for the dog, it may show hesitancy to warn you that something is going on. You can pick up upon your dog's body language and then see how they react to different challenges that arise. This will give someone with hearing loss a much better grip on what is happening around them.

How to Work With Your Best Friend and Not Kill Her
By Allison P. Davis
Photo: Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images
Yesterday, Susan Sarandon and Donna Karan shared an intimate moment before the designer's show — and by "intimate," we mean that a handler was physically holding off a dozen photographers. ("They are having a moment," she barked. "Let them have their moment and then you can have a shot.") So we wondered: How do other pairs of friends tackle Fashion Week?
At Alice and Olivia's spring presentation yesterday, Sofia Richie said that while she's watched her friend Gigi Hadid walk in shows, she hasn't found any time to hang out with her. But Broad City's Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer gave some exemplary lessons in friendship sync-up. For example: Fix each other's hair. Have the same taste in music (both say they'd want to walk down a runway to "#NotYours" by Scooter Island featuring Jungle Pussy). Wear complementary white outfits: Glazer was in a white silk suit that resembled a glammed-up version of her Broad City character's "white power suit," while Jacobson wore a white dress and sequined jacket. Both looks were timeless enough that they could still work if Glazer and Jacobson want to retire on a cruise ship together at 65. (Please do.)
Here's what else I learned after infiltrating their friendship for a glorious two minutes and 36 seconds:
What did you guys do to prep for today? Waxing, tanning, juice fasts?
Ilana Glazer: No prep. We do the whole waxing thing for fun. We just rip hair off all the time. Not like we have any hair we have to wax; we just want to relate.
Abbi Jacobson: I'm doing it all the time. I just wax my head hair sometimes.
I.G.: She has an extra row of bangs for it. Do people really tan? I just think, This is winter; you can be pale. I'm a white person. I signed up for this.
Do you guys influence each other's style?
A.J.: We have a similar style, but a different style. We like a lot of the same stuff.
I.G.: We like the same shoes. But then it will flourish into something different.
A.J.: A top I would pair with leggings or short-shorts, you'd pair with jeans. We'd wear the same blazer but totally accessorize it differently. But I'm always like, "Where did you get that, where did you get that?" Did you see that she's wearing all the designer earrings? They're all the same designer.
I.G.: Wendy Nichols.
You guys work together and are close friends. How do you not kill each other?
A.J.: Oh, we do.
I.G.: We give each other a lot of space. There's this unconditional sister-love thing. Also it's like … What is that bad? If we kill each other's pets, that's bad. That's the deal-breaker. If we're not doing that, then who cares?

Phil Jackson's three-year tenure as president of the Knicks came to an end Wednesday, as owner James Dolan finally put an end to Jackson's disastrous reign. While Jackson's legacy is now forever tarnished, his firing will also have a rippling effect throughout the Knicks organization, changing the immediate future for several important Knicks.
Jeff Hornacek - He's free from the triangle and will should get an opportunity to coach the team his way. In Phoenix, that meant heavy on the 3-pointers and transition buckets.
Kurt Rambis - He's a Jackson loyalist but he's also still on the staff, serving as the associate head coach for the Summer League team next week in Orlando.
Steve Mills - The survivor was around before Phil Jackson and now after him, serving as the man in charge of the front office until James Dolan finds the replacement. Assuming the Knicks don't hire another rookie team president, the next hire probably won't need Mills the way Jackson needed him - i.e. showing him the ropes and negotiating with agents.
Carmelo Anthony - He's more likely to return to the Knicks but it's still not a given. The fact remains that Anthony doesn't fit into the Knicks' rebuild, no matter who is running the show. They aren't going to buy him out but, as rosters shuffle all over the league, a suitable trade partner could still be found.
Kristaps Porzingis - The chasm that existed between the Latvian and Jackson is now a moot point, and Porzingis doesn't have to worry about getting traded anymore.


Data from one of the black boxes of a crashed EgyptAir plane showed smoke alarms had sounded on board, while soot was found on the wreckage, an Egyptian-led investigative committee said Wednesday.
[CAIRO] Data from one of the black boxes of a crashed EgyptAir plane showed smoke alarms had sounded on board, while soot was found on the wreckage, an Egyptian-led investigative committee said Wednesday.
The black box had been retrieved from the bottom of the Mediterranean after the Airbus A320 with 66 people on board plunged into the sea on May 19 while heading to Cairo from Paris.
It had recorded the flight's data from its departure until it "stopped at an altitude of 11,250m," the committee said in a statement.
"Recorded data is showing a consistency with ACARS messages of lavatory smoke and avionics smoke," it said, two days after the damaged recorder was repaired in France.
Investigators had previously announced that the plane's automated Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System (ACARS) sent signals indicating smoke alarms on board the plane before it went down.
"Parts of the front section of the aircraft showed signs of high temperature damage and soot," the committee statement added.
Egyptian investigators had confirmed that the aircraft had made a 90-degree left turn followed by a 360-degree turn to the right before hitting the sea.
The repair work of the cockpit voice recorder, the second black box, was underway at the France's BEA air safety agency.
The device had been found broken into pieces but salvage experts managed to retrieve the recorder's memory unit, Egypt's civil aviation ministry had said.
The committee statement said the search remained for the remains of the passengers and crew.
It "will continue till the full recovery of all the remains at the crash location," it said.
Both Egyptian and French judiciary have opened investigations into the mysterious incident, without ruling out that it had been deliberately downed.
The crash follows the bombing of a Russian passenger over Egypt's restive Sinai Peninsula last October, killing all 224 passengers and crew.
The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for that attack, but there has been no such claim linked to the EgyptAir crash, and the group usually swift claims responsibility for large scale attacks.
EgyptAir said last week advance compensation payments of US$25,000 will be offered to families of the 66 people killed in the crash.

The Drop In - Voodoo Glow Skulls
What a perfect weekend! :-)
Friday night @ the Sand Dollar Blues Lounge was great! I played both sets without any problems, and my band mates almost had me feeling accomplished! LOL I don't know why we practice as long as we do, just to get up on stage and forget the basic fundamentals that we worked so hard on perfecting, but such is Life in a band. Technical difficulties and booze were definitely factors in every bands performance that night. Opening band The Nasty were a train wreck! The band is comprised of Rich and Ryan from Six Shooters To The Sky and 2 other dudes and the technical difficulties and piss poor sound made watching their set MAJORLY awkward. The silence after each song was deafening. Their performance wasn't very good. I don't think anyone in the place liked their playing, and that's being polite about it. Then American Buckshot played. Mistakes were made is all I'm saying. Then these lame ass attention whores, who were dressed up like zombies and whatnot, got up on stage and acted like they knew how to work the cat walk. It was awkward watching them also. Then the Vegascendents played. Again, mistakes were made! LOL Then Horror Business played and I was stunned stupid and silent. They were horrible. The drummer was playing the songs all wrong, they were playing the songs all slow and lethargic, they were missing the changes from verse to chorus, and I think they even played a few songs in the wrong key! I'm a Misfits fan - I know! LOL But all of that didn't matter, because everybody in the place loved them, and I was ashamed to see a few of my band mates enjoying them as well. Booze makes everything better, right? ha ha ha Oh, it was a fun time despite it all, and I really, really had a splendid night. Thanx to Danielle @ Nevermore Productions for putting it all together, and Thanx to Hawaiian Hot Dog for the delicious grub afterwords.
Then Saturday, it was all about the Voodoo Glow Skulls @ the Bunkhouse. Whodovoodoowedo? FUCK YOU!!! ha ha ha They were pretty good once they got warmed up and used to playing outside in the cold Las Vegas night air. They were playing everything a little bit slow, but maybe that's just me. Playing slow worked for some songs, like Left For Dead, but really didn't for songs like El Coo Coi and Insubordination. And oh my gawd - they played Closet Monster! I haven't heard them play that song in a long ass time. I was giddy! It reminded me of how far these guys have come from their salad days, and I've proudly been there with them every step of the way. The Voodoo Glow Skulls are always a good time. Always. :-) The opening bands were an ecclectic lot, that's for sure. You had us, Aluminum Falcon play, and even though our set's momentum was killed by technical difficulties, I think we did OK. Time Crashers were in interesting concept but really bad musically. Travelers through time like Nikolai Tesla and Leonardo DaVinci form a band. Whatever. Burning Agrestic were really good, in a Taking Back Sunday / No Use For A Name kind of way. Shotguns N Gasoline might of been good, but you couldn't tell because of the shitty sound the soundman gave them. Their canned stage banter between songs schtick should go though. You don't need to remind the crowd every chance you get as to who you are. Some other really pro sounding band played after Shotguns N Gasoline, but they were too mellow and laid back sounding for me to dig though. Didn't catch their name. And then the Voodoo Glow Skulls brought it all down to a close, playing a pretty sweet set dressed up as the Village People. They didn't do the Y.M.C.A. dance though... boooooooooo. Ha Ha Ha They played a great set and I was glad to see 'em. Thanx to all the new friends I made that night, and to the old friends I caught up with, and fuck off to the Haters who were just making me el oh el. :-)
And then there was this. That's a picture of the Captain flogging some chick with a whip while the Vermin played. Don't ask. Since my band mates were in no mood to go home yet, after the Voodoo gig they dragged me to the Double Clown, where the Vermin were holding court and where Pussykat Tattoos were celebrating their 50th Anniversary by throwing a Halloween party. As I walked in the Vermin were using the old ploy of 'Show us your tits and we'll give you a tee shirt' on the drunken girls in the crowd, and the sad part is that it was working. No where was that old cliche about Halloween just being an excuse for stupid girls to dress up like sluts more evident than at this cesspool on a Sat. night. Gawd I fucking hate this place. If it wasn't for the awesomely cool people I know who were there like Sarah and Jen and Darran and Shawn and Jesse and Tess, I probably would of been miserable. The Vermin were drunk and messing up songs left and right, covers included, and if it wasn't for a pretty funny drunken girl fight, involving Marianne from the Luv Taps, if you can believe that, then I think the Double Clown experience would of been a total bust... LOL Life's Torment, who had played with Phobia earlier @ East Side Joe's, were setting up their gear to play another set for whomever was still standing, but the guys and I left to go grub at Felipito's before calling it a night. Thanx to all my Friends and the new faces I became acquainted with in the parking lot, and again, fuck off to the Haters who were in full effect at that dump of a place. I'm Teflon people. The fact that you think I give a fuck about you is the funniest thing ever. I wasn't gonna let any of you pathetic fucks ruin my excellent weekend - Nope! :-)

Live acoustic music most Sundays in South West London
MICHAEL MCDERMOTT (USA): Echoes of Springsteen and Dylan from the windy city
Date/Time Sun 04 Dec 2016 7:45 PM
Price Online - £11 + £1.10 booking fee On The Door - £11
Website: http://www.michael-mcdermott.com/
Michael McDermott's story is the classic tale of survival, perseverance, love and redemption. First came youthful innocence, a dream-come-true recording contract, a classic debut album heralded by the media, and a downward spiral with seemingly no bottom.
Michael got off to a fast start when he released his first album 620 W. Surf. The music media heralded him with comparisons to rock n' roll's greats: "The new Springsteen … Truly singular lyrics … Like Dylan".
Author Stephen King, wrote: "Michael McDermott is one of the best songwriters in the world and possibly the greatest undiscovered rock 'n' roll talent of the last 20 years."
Jess behind the bar at the Cabbage Patch declared Michael's first gig at TwickFolk "WICKED!"
Here's what John Hocking (bookings and sound) wrote recently:
I'd never heard of McDermott when his agent contacted TwickFolk looking for a booking, but the agent also sent me a link to his new album – 'West Side Stories', credited to The Westies. I played it. I played it again. I played the song 'Trains' a few more times. I was totally hooked.
McDermott was described as a 'new Springsteen' when he broke through in the 80s, whereupon he did the full rock star crash-and-burn, and was gone by the mid-90s. Now he's older, wiser, tea-total and sporting the most non-folk hairstyle ever seen at a folk club.
The date was May Day bank holiday Sunday and because it was a 3-day weekend we had people flying and driving from all over the UK for that one night. It was a barnstormer.
McDermott has a lot in common with Steve Earle and the same intensity of delivery that gives his music emotional power. The stories in the songs and around the songs told of the rise and fall and rise again, not just of McDermott, but a whole cast of characters real and imagined.
Redemptive Rock and Roll – that's how I like to spend my Sundays.
This December, Michael returns with an acclaimed new album: Willow Springs and another Westies CD from earlier this year and a retrospective collection. John & Jess are already excited!
Meanwhile, guess where this video was shot…

FAMILY-FAVORITE FILM ALONE YET NOT ALONE OPENS IN THEATERS NATIONWIDE TODAY, JUNE 13, 2014
FAMILY-FAVORITE FILM ALONE YET NOT ALONE OPENS
IN THEATERS NATIONWIDE TODAY, JUNE 13, 2014
SOURCE: Rogers & Cowan
LOS ANGELES, Calif. (June 13, 2014) – Enthuse Entertainment presents the riveting family-friendly drama, Alone Yet Not Alone. Opening in theaters nationwide today, June 13, 2014, the flagship production stars Kelly Greyson(Return To The Hiding Place) with Jenn Gotzon(God's Country, Frost Nixon) andactor/musical artist Clay Walker (Clay Walker: Jesse James).
Alone Yet Not Alone is based on the true story taken from the novel of the same name written by Tracy Leininger Craven that speaks of hope triumphing over despair, of faith overcoming fear and of victory prevailing over adversity.
Last fall the movie was shown at 11 select locations as part of a "sneak peek" week long release (Sept. 27, 2013), achieving the second highest grossing per screen average (combining theater ticket sales with Seatzy ticket sales) in the country. Alone Yet Not Alone banked $11,434 per screenaverage in its limited release opening in Grand Rapids, Mich.; San Antonio, Houston and Dallas, Texas; Knoxville and Franklin, Tenn.; Raleigh-Durham, N.C.; Atlanta, Ga. and Colorado Springs, Colo. The Christian audience's enthusiastic reception helped rank Alone Yet Not Alone as one of the highest per screen average independently released faith-based films to date.
"Previous success has sparked a heightened interest about the film and we are excited to now introduce Alone Yet Not Alone to a wideraudience," says Executive Producer, Ken Wales (Amazing Grace, "Christy" TV Series).
"Everyone who is an adult or approaching adulthood needs to see this film," says Dr. James Dobson, founder and president of Family Talk. "The technical quality, the beauty of the acting, and most importantly the inspiration of the story will get to your heart and elevate your spirit."
In addition to Dobson, many notable leaders around the country are excited to see this film hit theaters today:
"A riveting, faith-filled movie that will keep you on the edge of your seat! A plot that leaves you inspired and filled with a hope that can change lives!"
– Tony Perkins, President, Family Research Council
"A true story of faith that you will be inspired by seeing. I pray you do and you will be blessed!"
– James Robison, President, Life Outreach International
"I was really impressed by the story! Excellent! You can take the whole family!"
– Tim Wildmon, President, American Family Association
"This movie is fantastic! Drama, adventure, history! You're going to come away feeling so inspired! Don't miss it!"
– Shirley Dobson, Chairman, National Day of Prayer
"I've watched Alone Yet Not Alone a few times and it is a wonderful movie. Take your whole family to see it!"
– Michael Farris, Founder, Home School Legal Defense Association
"A great movie! Alone Yet Not Alone is a story of faith and a great movie for the entire family to view together. Let me highly recommend Alone Yet Not Alone for your family."
– Penny Nance, President, Concerned Women For America
"I loved it! The story is gripping, photography stunning and message so wonderfully reassuring. On behalf of the scores of viewers whose spirits will be lifted by this project—thank you, thank you, thank you."
– Max Lucado, Best-Selling Author and Inspirational Icon
The film is being released through the movie ticket reservation platform and new film distribution company Seatzy™ (www.seatzy.com/alone). Seatzy allows moviegoers to participate in the process of supporting the films they love by getting ticket reservations in early and assuring the film will play in the theater closest to them. It also allows moviegoers all across the country the opportunity to bring the movie to their city if the movie is not playing nearby.
"I am thrilled that Alone Yet Not Alone is the first nationwide release for Seatzy theatrical distribution and our advance sales ticketing platform," says Dan Merrell, founder and CEO of Seatzy. "It's an exciting new way to bring a compelling story like this to market."
Depicting a family at a critical juncture in America's history, the film is designed to encourage and uplift families in difficult times, through sharing the inspiring story of Barbara and Regina Leininger and their journey of faith and survival during the French & Indian war in 1755. Captured by the Delaware Indians after raiding their home, and transported over 300 miles of wilderness to Ohio, the sisters are sustained only by their abiding trust in God, and their hope of escape against all odds to be reunited with their family.
Alone Yet Not Alone is a movie filled with action, drama and suspense shot on location at historical sites in Tennessee, Virginia, Pennsylvania and North Carolina to allow audiences to take the journey with the characters. Filmmakers realized that in order to tell the story authentically, they would need to shoot where the events actually occurred or those similar in terrain.
Highlighting themes of endurance, perseverance and faith with positive values and entertaining action sequences that make it safe viewing for families, the film also garnered the "Family-Friendly Seal" (12+ years) with a five Dove rating from the prestigious Dove Foundation, an organization that provides online family movie and video reviews and ratings.
George Escobar and Ray Bengston co-directed James Richard's screenplay while James Richards, Bud S. Smith and Ken Wales served as executive producers. Barbara Divisek, George Escobar, Michael Snyder and Cynthia Garcia Walker produced the movie.
Opening major market cities include Los Angeles, Atlanta, Indianapolis, Minneapolis, Philadelphia, Dallas, Denver, and Seattle, among others.

Disneynature's Bears on Blu-ray 8/12
INSP TO COMMEMORATE THE LIFE OF ICONIC ACTOR, RALPH WAITE, WITH "THE WALTONS" MARATHON ON SUNDAY, JUNE 22 FROM 2 P.M. – 8 P.M.


The British and Irish pub is an institution unique to this corner of Europe. Pubs sit at the centre of most British communities, simultaneously serving as restaurants, drinking establishments and social venues. Where a pub drifts into being a bar, restaurant, or even a hotel is hard to define, but what makes a pub a pub is so ingrained in our culture that for Brits the simplest definition is that we know it when we see it.
However since 2002 the number of pubs in the UK has been in steady decline. A number of factors have been blamed for this including high levels of taxation on alcohol, rising property prices and bad management. The British press has taken up the cause and the falling number of pubs regularly generates column inches and editorials.
Over the last few years the Government has regularly taken action to halt the slide but has so far failed: the number of pubs fell by almost 1% between 2015 and 2016. Taxes have been cut, planning laws have been tweaked, and special allowances have been made, but the number of pubs is still falling. However, the story is not simply one of decay but also one of change. Perhaps more than any other high street enterprise, pubs reflect the society in which they exist. The pubs of today are very different from the pubs of twenty years ago, which were, in turn, different from their predecessors. These shifts come from changing regulations such as the smoking ban and health and safety laws, the changing tastes of the customers and changes in the structure of the pub industry. In 2016 the number of British pubs which were independently owned overtook the number owned by breweries and pub companies for the first time.
These small British businesses, often backed by the price of their property, have proved to be very popular investments under the UK Government's tax-advantaged schemes. VCT managers have made significant investments in pubs and restaurant as part of their portfolios. EIS products have been set up investing exclusively in chains of pubs.
In August 2017 the UK Government published its consultation on the Patient Capital Review. The consultation highlighted that the majority of EIS funds "had a capital preservation objective in tax year 2015/16". This has led to speculation in the tax-advantaged space that asset-backed investments may be restricted or removed entirely in the upcoming November budget. The EIS Association response to the consultation proposed that EIS investments be "excluded from partially or wholly contributing to the purchase of a freehold, or lease premiums on leaseholds on [sic] more than 25 years." Investment in pubs is a prominent example of asset-backing in the tax-advantaged market and, while any specific actions that the Government may take are as yet unclear, investors and managers hoping to use EIS schemes to invest in pubs should be holding their breathe on November 22nd.
In 1946 George Orwell wrote an article for The Evening Standard in which he imagined his perfect London pub: a quiet and cosy venue called The Moon Under Water. It had a big garden, tobacco for sale and the bar staff knew your name. Today Wetherspoon's owns 15 pubs called The Moon Under Water, including a converted cinema in Manchester which is one of the largest in the United Kingdom, serving thousands of pints every day. In the world of the British pub nothing remains static for long but fresh ideas and fresh energy can turn real profits and build big companies.
In its new sector overview report Allenbridge, part of MJ Hudson examines the key drivers and threats to the UK pub industry, as well as the way in which investments in this area have been made under the UK Government's tax-advantaged investment schemes. The report looks at the future of pubs and suggests to potential investors which questions to ask when making an investment in this space.
We will also be providing commentary on the potential changes to the rules governing the tax-advantaged investment world further to the Chancellor's Budget. Look out for more newsletters and reports in the months ahead for the latest on what investors and managers should expect.

Film: Everything Comes from the Streets
California Humanities April 18, 2014
Cars are always vehicles, but when do they become vehicles for organizing communities, celebrating history, and taking pride in one's cultural heritage?
Everything Comes From the Streets chronicles the lowrider movement in San Diego from its origins to the present day in order to dispel myths and shed light on the importance of car clubs as extended families that affirm and build communities in the colorful and complex fabric of the borderlands of the American Southwest.
Challenging the belief that lowriding is linked to gangs and violence, Everything Comes From the Streets features men and women from San Diego and Tijuana who shaped and influenced the car customizing movement, a movement defined by imagination, creativity, and ingenuity. The film explores the intersections of self-expression, cultural vitality, and community activism, focusing on the story of the relationship between the community of lowriders and the struggle to create San Diego's world-famous Chicano Park—home to the country's largest outdoor collection of murals. Established by means of peaceful protest at the height of the Chicano movement, this is a story of collective action and resilience from which many communities can draw lessons.
Everything Comes From the Streets, directed by Dr. Alberto López Pulido, is a California Humanities-funded project of the Department of Ethnic Studies at the University of San Diego, San Diego, CA.

3. It doesn't provide accurate answer at what period of time you will achieve positive NPV.
IRR: also referred as "yield to redemption or yield per annum. The internal rate of return for an investment project is the effective rate of interest that equates the present value of inflows and outflows. Higher IRR represents a more profitable project.
However, IRR need not be positive. Zero return implies investor receives no return on investment. If the project has only cash inflows then the IRR is infinity.
When IRR< cost of capital, NPV will be negative.
1.This approach is mostly used by financial managers as it is expressed in percentage form so it is easy for them to compare to the required cost of capital.
2. IRR method gives you the advantage of knowing the actual returns of the money which you invested today.
1.If an analyst is evaluating two projects, both of which share a common discount rate, predictable cash flows, equal risk, and a shorter time horizon, IRR will probably work. The catch is that discount rates usually change substantially over time. Thus, IRR will not be effective.
2. IRR is the discount rate that makes a project break even. If market conditions change over the years, this project can have two or more IRR. (we will justify with the example).
We have seen the advantages and disadvantages of both the methods. But NPV is much better as compared to IRR.
1. IRR assumes the single discount rate which will not be case in reality. For example, return on 1- year Treasury bills is varied between 1% - 12% in last 20 years. Now this problem is easily solved by NPV method as it discounts back the future cashflows at different discount rates easily.
3. IRR can be negative too which is difficult to interpret, whereas in case of NPV if it is negative it surely means Deficit and positive implies profitability in the project.
4.Positive NPV indicates addition to shareholder's wealth and negative NPV implies vice-versa. But this thumb rule will not applicable in case of IRR.
So, why is the IRR method still commonly used in capital budgeting? Its because of its reporting simplicity. The NPV method is inherently complex and requires assumptions at each stage. The result is simple, but for any project that is long-term, that has multiple cash flows at different discount rates, or that has uncertain cash flows - in fact, for almost any project at all - simple IRR isn't good for much more than presentation value.

Hill calls for Turkey sanctions
LEADER'S KILLING DEEPENS SENSE OF BETRAYAL
A US military convoy arrives near Dahuk, Iraq on Oct 21. Defense Secretary Mark Esper said Monday that under the current plan all US troops leaving Syria will go to western Iraq and the military will continue to conduct operations against the Islamic State group to prevent its resurgence. (AP)
WASHINGTON, Oct 22, (RTRS): US lawmakers kept up their push on Monday to impose sanctions on Turkey if it does not end its offensive in northeastern Syria, and a leading Kurdish politician called on President Donald Trump to stop the "ethnic cleansing" of her people. "We need to stop the slaughter. We need to ensure that we don't enable ISIS (the Islamic State militant group)," Democratic Senator Chris Van Hollen told a news conference. Lawmakers said they were working to sign more co-sponsors of legislation to impose tough economic penalties on Turkey.
Ilham Ahmed, a Kurdish political leader and president of the Syrian Democratic Council Executive Committee, joined the lawmakers. Speaking through a translator, she called Trump to reverse his decision two weeks ago to remove US forces from Syria, which cleared the way for Turkey's cross-border offensive.
"They want to attack us. They want to kill hundreds of thousands of us," she said. Trump said on Monday he did not want to leave any American troops in Syria, aside from a small number to secure oil production. His position has frustrated members of Congress, including several of his fellow Republicans. They consider the withdrawal of troops a betrayal of Kurdish allies who for years have helped the United States fight against Islamic State. Hearings on the situation are scheduled in both the Senate and House of Representatives this week and some congressional leaders expect a vote on legislation within the coming weeks. "Talk about the oil fields is a cruel distraction from the ongoing humanitarian disaster," said Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal, who said he felt "horror and shame" about the Kurds. Lawmakers also worry that renewed fighting in Syria will lead to the release of captured Islamic State fighters.
Van Hollen and Republican Senator Lindsey Graham last Thursday announced legislation that would impose "crippling" sanctions on the government in Ankara and said they would press ahead despite the announcement of a five-day ceasefire. "I blame Turkey more than anyone. Turkey's invasion has put at risk the defeat of the caliphate," Graham said on Monday, referring to territory once held by Islamic State.
Graham said he wanted to see a demilitarized zone between Turkey and Kurdish fighters, monitored by international forces, a continued US partnership with those fighters and an effort to guard and monitor oil fields in southern Syria, but that Ankara needed to back down first. Turkey's offensive has displaced some 300,000 people and led to 120 casualties among civilians and 470 among SDF fighters, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said on Sunday.
Turkey says 765 terrorists but no civilians have been killed. Kurdish politician Hevrin Khalaf spent the final months of her life building a political party that she hoped would help shape Syria's future, drawing the attention of US officials who said it would have a say in what happened once the war ended. To her colleagues in the Future Syria Party and Kurdish communities in Syria's northeast more broadly, her killing became a symbol of betrayal by the United States.
As recently as Oct 3, State Department officials reassured her at a meeting that Washington would safeguard northern Syria from a threatened Turkish assault by mediating between Kurdishled forces and Ankara, according to a colleague who was present. A state department official said the US message to Syrian partners had been consistent: that American forces would be withdrawing from the country. Days after the meeting, Trump announced US forces would quit the region, leaving it vulnerable to attack by Turkey.
Kurdish fighters in northeast Syria, key allies in the US battle against Islamic State, said rebels fighting on the Turkish side murdered Khalaf. She was 34. She was slain on Oct 12 along with a driver and aide when Turkey-backed fighters stopped their SUV on the M4 highway in northern Syria, according to the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and officials in her party.
The spokesman for the Turkey-backed Syrian rebel force, the National Army, at the time denied its fighters killed her, saying they had not advanced as far as the M4. Last week, the spokesman, Youssef Hammoud, said the incident was being investigated among other "breaches".
"If America hadn't decided to withdraw, these factions … would not have dared to carry out their operations in that area," said Moaz Abdul Karim, a Future Syria Party leader. The US State Department has said it was looking into reports of Khalaf's death apparently while in the hands of Turkey- backed forces, calling the reports "extremely troubling". An autopsy report circulated by the SDF said Khalaf's body had been riddled with bullets. On Oct 3, US State Department representatives visited the Future Syria Party's headquarters in the Syrian city of Raqqa and told Khalaf and party president Ibrahim al- Kaftan that American efforts in the region were aimed at mediation.
Hundreds of Kurdish fighters remain near to Syria's northeast border despite a US-brokered truce demanding their withdrawal and Turkey could resume its offensive in the area when the ceasefire expires, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said. The five-day truce in Turkey's cross-border offensive to allow the withdrawal of Kurdish YPG fighters from the border area ends at 10:00 pm (1900 GMT) on Tuesday. Turkey says Kurdish YPG militia forces, which it views as terrorists because of their links to Kurdish militants waging an insurgency in southeast Turkey, must leave a "safe zone" it wants to establish inside Syria.
"The withdrawal is continuing," Erdogan told reporters at Ankara airport before flying to Russia for talks on Syria with President Vladimir Putin, who supports the Damascus government and has also sent troops to northeast Syria. "We are talking about 700-800 (YPG fighters) already withdrawn and the rest, around 1,200-1,300, are continuing to withdraw. It has been said that they will withdraw," Erdogan said.
"All will have to get out, the process will not end before they are out." Turkey began its cross-border operation nearly two weeks ago following Trump's decision to withdraw American troops from northern Syria. The American withdrawal from Syria has been criticized by US lawmakers, including some of Trump's fellow Republicans, as a betrayal of Kurdish allies who have helped the United States fight Islamic State in Syria. Trump said on Monday it appeared that the five-day pause was holding despite skirmishes, and that it could possibly go beyond Tuesday's expiry, but Erdogan said the fighting may resume

[11], During the Battle of Hogwarts, Slughorn sided with the defenders of Hogwarts, gathering reinforcements from Hogsmeade,[11] and engaged his former pupil in a duel alongside Minerva McGonagall and Kingsley Shacklebolt. Also known as This, along with the fact that he fearlessly stood up to Voldemort himself, showed that he was a courageous man. h�b```�&�w� ��ea�hd�;k#��?�0�rX�P8GGCGCT He turned back into Professor Plum. Dumbledore told Harry that the original memory would undoubtedly be essential in determining what ultimately defeating Voldemort would entail, and assigned Harry with the task of retrieving it. 5. His largeness fit his personality: he was jolly and genial, bustling around, twiddling the ends of his walrus moustache and puffing out his massive belly. [18] Slughorn had evident self-centredness; he mentioned that all the mead he brought was quite safe as he had a house-elf drink some from each bottle to ensure it was not poisoned. Gooseberry[9] Dumbledore asked Slughorn to resume his old position in 1996, and Slughorn accepted after being enticed with the prospect of being able to teach Harry Potter. He attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry as a member of Slytherin before returning in 1931 as Potions Master. Sentence challenge What sounds might you hear in Professor Plum's laboratory? He had a liking for embroidered clothing, with gold coloured buttons and plenty of velvet. It made people sick one by one. She started cleaning. Suffice it to say, Harry was among the many students that Slughorn came to be fond of beyond just the parameters of social climbing. Relationship information Professor Plum had been locked away in his laboratory for days now, barely even stopping to eat or drink. Harry Potter Wiki is a FANDOM Movies Community. He never wished to be famous himself; instead, he preferred to help others become famous, which, if successful, gained him influence and/or benefits from them, such as being able to recommend the next junior member of the Goblin Liaison Office, free Quidditch tickets or a box of his favourite crystallised pineapple.

In addition, he stated that he was not prejudiced against Muggle-born students, but seemed surprised that Harry said Hermione Granger was the best in his year; despite this, he asserted that Lily was one of the most talented students he ever taught, and frequently compared Harry's talent to hers in very favourable terms.

15 Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For everything in the world—the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does—comes not from the Father but from the world. 17 The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever.
Our world is so friendly. Enticing us to play. To participate. It is so hard to say, "No" and to remain separate for the the Lord. Many missionaries I have spoken with do not like traveling to the United States because the depravity is so great and the allure is so strong. How then can we as followers of Christ remain a friend to God and deny ourselves friendship to the world as we are immersed in the commercialism of our culture?
The Bible speaks of the last days in Matthew where Jesus instructs us to be on our guard so that we are not deceived. It has come to my attention that every generation is highly critical of the generations that follow. I am more aware of this now living in an area where much of the population is much older. What they fail to realize is that each generation is responsible for raising up the next in righteousness and truth according to God's Word. But each generation in the US has proven to be more perverse than the previous. If when we are old and at the mercy of a generation that does not know God, we have no one to blame but ourselves.
A teacher in my 7th grader's class asked the class if any of them are practicing Christians. Ten percent (3 students) raised their hand. My mother cannot even imagine what it is like to attend school where everyone does not share the same beliefs or have no beliefs at all. It is the unfaithfulness of the parent that causes the child to reject family values, morality and faith.
We compromise. We fail to stand guard. We surrender our homes and our children to the enemy because it is easy. Remaining faithful is hard work. There is no "Easy" button when it comes to raising up a righteous generation. The price is high, it requires sacrifice. But I would rather pay now when the cost is an investment in our future than pay later when the cost is the price for the neglecting that future. We cannot even begin to imagine how high that price may be until we are laying in a bed in a nursing home at the mercy of a health-care provider who does not fear God.

Q: WPF ListView: items with and without icon How to create a ListView in WPF so that some ListViewItems have icon and some not? I'd like to achive the ListView as in the below image.

I started with the below code but didn't get how to set the icon to the first 4 items only but not to other items. If the item has no icon, its text should left-align with any icon as shown in the image.
I also need to give the items with no icon slightly higher height than the items with icon.

Soccer was good, we dominated the game because opponents lost us in stamina. However, the game got quite boring after awhile because of lack of competition. There were only 2 teams so perhaps that's why.
I got complacent halfway through and I'll learn not to be in future. Complacent is not for me. I want to be ready always especially when I am given the opportunity to play.
I am so hungry now. I am thinking if I should go down to buy California Walnut Breads to eat at home or just eat a normal chinese meal at a nearby coffeeshop. Turns out, I've decided to opt for the former. It is healthy and it will replenish my body + I'm eating alone so I don't mind eating simple. If I'm eating with friends than I'll definitely go for the latter.
I have sprint and work a lot the past couple of days on Humble & Rich website. It is a pleasure and a joy working on the site however I don't want to lose the momentum and overwork myself therefore I'm gonna take a break now. Relax, read, eat, sleep! I'll work again tomorrow.
