1 These are the areas which the children of Israel inherited in the land of Canaan, a which Eleazar the priest, Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel distributed as an inheritance to them. 2 Their inheritance was b by lot, as the LORD had commanded by the hand of Moses, for the nine tribes and the half-tribe. 3 c For Moses had given the inheritance of the two tribes and the half-tribe on the other side of the Jordan; but to the Levites he had given no inheritance among them. 4 For d the children of Joseph were two tribes: Manasseh and Ephraim. And they gave no part to the Levites in the land, except e cities to dwell in, with their common-lands for their livestock and their property. 5 f As the LORD had commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did; and they divided the land.
6 Then the children of Judah came to Joshua in Gilgal. And Caleb the son of Jephunneh the g Kenizzite said to him: "You know h the word which the LORD said to Moses the man of God concerning i you and me in Kadesh Barnea. 7 "I was forty years old when Moses the servant of the LORD j sent me from Kadesh Barnea to spy out the land, and I brought back word to him as it was in my heart. 8 "Nevertheless k my brethren who went up with me made the 1 heart of the people melt, but I wholly l followed the LORD my God. 9 "So Moses swore on that day, saying, m 'Surely the land n where your foot has trodden shall be your inheritance and your children's forever, because you have wholly followed the LORD my God.' 10 "And now, behold, the LORD has kept me o alive, p as He said, these forty-five years, ever since the LORD spoke this word to Moses while Israel 2 wandered in the wilderness; and now, here I am this day, eighty-five years old. 11 q "As yet I am as strong this day as on the day that Moses sent me; just as my strength was then, so now is my strength for war, both r for going out and for coming in. 12 "Now therefore, give me this mountain of which the LORD spoke in that day; for you heard in that day how s the Anakim were there, and that the cities were great and fortified. t It may be that the LORD will be with me, and u I shall be able to drive them out as the LORD said."
13 And Joshua v blessed him, w and gave Hebron to Caleb the son of Jephunneh as an inheritance. 14 x Hebron therefore became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite to this day, because he y wholly followed the LORD God of Israel. 15 And z the name of Hebron formerly was Kirjath Arba (Arba was the greatest man among the Anakim). a Then the land had rest from war.
But the land shall be divided by lot; they shall inherit according to the names of the tribes of their fathers.
These are the areas which Moses had distributed as an inheritance in the plains of Moab on the other side of the Jordan, by Jericho eastward.
Command the children of Israel that they give the Levites cities to dwell in from the inheritance of their possession, and you shall also give the Levites common-land around the cities.
Surely none of the men who came up from Egypt, from twenty years old and above, shall see the land of which I swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, because they have not wholly followed Me.
But Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh remained alive, of the men who went to spy out the land.
For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the people who were men of war, who came out of Egypt, were consumed, because they did not obey the voice of the LORD - to whom the LORD swore that He would not show them the land which the LORD had sworn to their fathers that He would give us, "a land flowing with milk and honey.
Nevertheless the people who dwell in the land are strong; the cities are fortified and very large; moreover we saw the descendants of Anak there.
Caleb drove out the three sons of Anak from there: Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak.
And they took it and struck it with the edge of the sword - its king, all its cities, and all the people who were in it; he left none remaining, according to all that he had done to Eglon, but utterly destroyed it and all the people who were in it.
Nevertheless my brethren who went up with me made the heart of the people melt, but I wholly followed the LORD my God.


When it comes to groups that are uniformly considered to be rap royalty, few acts eclipse Wu-Tang Clan. Whether it's impact, bodies of work or just pure longevity, no other group in hip-hop comes close. Though they've individually continued to release great albums, as a group the quality and consistency of their projects has undeniably declined. Their previous 'proper' studio album (not including the one-off LP bought by the internet's most hated man, Martin Shkreli) is probably considered the weakest and most inconsistent project from the group to date.
Given this, it's likely that even die-hard fans of the legendary Staten Island group will go into this project with a certain degree of trepidation. Crafted by long-time Wu affiliate Mathematics under the watchful eye of RZA, 'The Saga Continues' is part-compilation, part-album and part-mystery. You can feel the traditional Wu-Tang aesthetic in full effect right from the start, with a authoritative RZA monologue introducing the project. Next track 'Lesson Learn'd' sets the tone for the project, as a soul sample chopped up in classic RZA style is the backdrop for a back and forth of verses from Inspectah Deck and Wu affiliate Redman.
'The Saga Continues' peaks at its mid point, with the one-two punch of 'Pearl Harbor' and 'People Say' capturing what people expect from a Wu-Tang project. Both tracks have soulful yet dark instrumentals, allowing the Wu members to competitively flex their lyrical prowess. Method Man's verse on 'People Say' may be the strongest and most memorable on the entire project, as he sounds more inspired than he has for a long time.
Unfortunately one of the major issues with this Wu project, and their recent group projects in general, is that the Clan's chemistry is just not as powerful as it used to be. Aside from the two tracks just mentioned, some records on the album just seem pieced together and are ill-thought out. It's no secret that certain members of the group haven't seen eye-to-eye recently, but it's becoming more and more apparent that certain verses are throwaways or are just phoned in. Tracks like 'G'd Up', 'If What You Say Is True' and 'Frozen' sound dated and illustrate this lack of chemistry.
At its best, 'The Saga Continues' captures some of the old Wu magic but unfortunately these moments are few and far between.


By now you've seen the snapshots, portraits and videos of the 25 models from ARROJO, Curls Unleashed, Hair Rules, Matrix and Minardi Luxury Color Care gracing the runway at "Texture on the Runway."
These polished runway presentations were the result of hours upon hours of cutting, coloring and styling these models' hair over the days and hours preceding the event. Here's a peek at what went into the creating "Texture on the Runway."
Casting the models for "Texture on the Runway" was a unique challenge as each of the brands had a different concept of how they wanted to interpret texture. While Hair Rules and Curls Unleashed sought out multi-textured models evocative of the 70s and the essence of afro-chic, Minardi wanted to focus on color to create depth and texture, and Matrix aimed to create highly textured hair from little-to-no existing texture.
Whereas many fashion week shows focus on a model's face and body, the casting of "Texture on the Runway" was very much hair-centric. Before a model even showed a creative team her runway walk or her book, stylists had their hands in her hair feeling for thickness, looking for damage and doing strand tests to make sure she could potentially be a hair model.
Once the final models were selected, they were individually scheduled for preliminary coloring, trims and any necessary styling tests.
Crimpers of all sizes- from micro to all regular size.
Clipless curling irons for creating spirals.
Pin curls and hooded dryers.
On the morning of the event, all stylists and their models arrived bright and early for a day of styling at ARROJO Salon in SoHo.
With a 3:30 call time for a final run through, prep began at 8:00am, and the salon was quickly transformed into an action packed studio filled with washing, drying, crimping and curls galore.
Bloggers and editors arrived with their cameras, microphones and notepads checking on the behind the scenes process and learning from the stylists.
Here are some of our favorite behind the scenes shots taken by photographer (and fellow curly!) Gabriela Herman.

U of T event to highlight biotech's potential to improve health care, drive post-COVID-19 economy
By Addison Pike
PRiME, a University of Toronto-led precision medicine initiative, is working with partners across Canada to generate support for the creation of a network of biotechnology research hubs across the country that would transform health care and propel the post-pandemic economy.
"Growing our talent base and creating a constellation of new companies launched from universities will be essential to realize the economic development and societal impact that the growth of the biotechnology industry can deliver," said Shana Kelley, University Professor in the Leslie Dan Faculty of Pharmacy and director of PRiME.
To highlight the high-growth potential for biomedical innovation and biotech in Canada, PRiME is hosting a virtual showcase on Feb. 17 called Building Biotech: Science and Talent Accelerating Biomedical Innovation. It will feature a panel of biotechnology leaders, scientists, entrepreneurs and investors who represent Canada's three main biotechnology ecosystems in Vancouver, Montreal and Toronto. The panelists will explore how investment in academic science can create societal impact and health security, while also helping to drive post-pandemic economic growth.
"Canadian biotech is a small industry with most of our graduates drawn to opportunities in the world-class U.S. biotech sector," said Molly Shoichet, a University Professor in the Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering who is a member of the PRiME steering committee and a serial entrepreneur.
"It doesn't have to be this way. We have homegrown talent with strengths in basic science fundamentals, drug discovery and therapeutic development. What's missing is meaningful government investment along the continuum of research to commercialization to transform Canadian biotech from a fledgling industry to a true powerhouse of Canadian economy."
Kelley, Shoichet and colleagues across U of T say discussion is critical in the context of the pandemic. The global rush to deploy a COVID-19 vaccine – with Canada effectively being out of the game due to the lack of biomanufacturing capacity – highlights how a thriving biotechnology industry could improve the country's pandemic response while also providing jobs for graduates and significant economic benefits.
There is already evidence the Canadian biomedical community is gaining momentum given recent successes including Repare Therapeutics, a therapeutics company that was based on discoveries made by Dan Durocher, a professor in the Temerty Faculty of Medicine and a researcher at the Lunenfeld-Tanenbaum Research Institute, part of the Sinai Health System. Repare raised more than US$250 million through an initial public offering last year on on the NASDAQ stock exchange. Fusion Therapeutics and AbCellera are two other spinoffs from Canadian universities that also had successful IPOs over the past six months.
Kelley will kick off the event with her talk, "Tackling Disease with Precision Therapeutics and Diagnostics: PRiME and the GTA Ecosystem." She will be followed by four speakers representing Vancouver's and Montreal's biomedical innovation centres – all of whom lead translational and commercialization-focused organizations.
Following these sessions, Andrew Casey, CEO of BIOTECanada, will moderate a panel of entrepreneurs and investors discussing how to build momentum in the biotech sector. He believes that the social and economic impact of the pandemic has increased awareness of the important role the biotech sector can play in delivering innovative solutions.
"It will be biotech-based solutions – including vaccines and therapeutic drugs – that will facilitate the ability of society and the economy to return to normal," said Casey. "The biotech sector can also play a foundational role in the significant economic rebuild that lies ahead.
"To maintain a globally competitive biotech sector, it is critical that Canada invest now in manufacturing capacity, research institutes, scientific and entrepreneurial talent and companies."
Kelley said that establishing a network of biotechnology hubs in Canada could be crucial for post-pandemic economic recovery.
"It's time to transform Canada from a resource-based economy to a knowledge-based economy," Kelley said. "With government investment, we can work quickly to build infrastructure, gather talent and create a breakthrough-to-commercialization pipeline of made-in-Canada discoveries that will address the needs of today and the unmet needs of tomorrow."
Christine Allen, U of T's associate vice-president and vice-provost, strategic initiatives, said investing in the future is important.
"The biomedical sciences at U of T and across Canada are an area of significant strength and a critical national resource that must be cultivated," said Allen, a professor at the Leslie Dan Faculty of Pharmacy. "We must invest in our future and support growth of our ecosystem in this area."

Police said Odell Beckham Jr. was removed from the Miami flight after refusing to comply with safety protocol
Elise Ford November 28, 2022 3 min read
NFL wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. was removed from an American Airlines flight to Los Angeles Sunday morning at Miami International Airport after refusing to comply with safety protocol, according to a statement from the Miami-Dade Police Department.
Officers were notified of a medical emergency aboard an American Airlines flight around 9:30 a.m. Sunday. The flight crew grew concerned for a passenger — identified by police as Beckham — as they tried to wake him up to fasten his seat belt, according to a statement from Miami police.
"It appeared that he was entering and losing consciousness before they left," the police statement read. "Fearing that Mr. Peckham was seriously ill, and that his condition would worsen during the expected 5-hour flight, the flight attendants called the police and fire rescue."
When the officers arrived, they asked Beckham to get off the plane several times, and he refused, according to the statement. The plane deplaned, the statement said, at which point officers told Beckham to exit the plane and he did so without incident.
American Airlines Flight 1228, with service from Miami (MIA) to Los Angeles (LAX), returned to the gate prior to takeoff due to the customer's failure to follow crew member instructions and refusal to fasten seat belt (sic). "The customer was removed, and the flight departed at 10:54 a.m. local time," American Airlines said in a statement obtained by CNN.
Beckham's attorney, Daniel Davelier, released a statement saying his client got on the plane that morning without any issues. Davelier said the flight was delayed and Beckham slept with his blanket over his head – a normal practice for him on long flights.
"He was woken up and told that the plane was back at the gate and that he needed to get off the plane because he did not put his seatbelt on when asked," Devillier's statement read, adding that Beckham had been told it was too late to buckle up. belt and will either need to get off the plane or everyone will have to get off the plane.
"The overzealous air hostess refused to allow Mr. Beckham to simply fasten his seatbelt and proceed with the flight, and instead removed everyone from the plane immediately," said Davelier. "At no time was Mr. Peckham ever callous or combative."
Devilliers described the incident as "totally unnecessary".
"Sleeping on an airplane should not be grounds for removal from the flight," the lawyer said. "If they can wake him up when the flight returns to the gate, they can do the same and wake him up to tell him to put his seatbelt on."
No charges were filed in the incident and after officers escorted him to the unsafe area of the station Sunday morning, Beckham then "made other arrangements," police say.
Beckham is currently a free agent as he continues to recover from surgery to repair a knee injury Super Bowl LVI as a member of the Los Angeles Rams in February. Beckham had caught a touchdown on the Rams' winning effort against the Cincinnati Bengals in that game.
Beckham was seen in Miami sitting down at the Miami Heat-Washington Wizards on Wednesday night, according to a video posted online. The official Twitter account for the NBA.

Alpha Delta helps sponsor blood drive
Washburn student Grace Roberts gives blood at the Alpha Delta blood drive. It was their first blood drive, although they hope to do more in the future
Jaimie Luse / Washburn Review
Students overcame possible phobias last Tuesday as they helped give back to the community with a blood drive hosted by the Alpha Delta fraternity.
Community Blood Center was on campus from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the lower level of Petro to give students the opportunity to give blood.
Brian Anderson of the Community Blood Center knew this was an important event with students coming back.
"We're always in need of blood, especially in the summer, it's slow in summer but picks up in the school year because kids donate blood," said Anderson.
This is the first time Alpha Delta has put on a blood drive but they hope to make it an annual or semiannual event.
"The Community Blood Center is a good thing and they need different types of blood", said Ryan Calovich, Alpha Delta president. "Part of Greek life is community service and philanthropy and this is a way for them to help out. To bring it to Washburn will expose it not only to the Greek community but Washburn as a whole."
The blood drive gave students an opportunity to help support the community and give back.
"It's cool that I could potentially save two people's lives. It feels good to give to the community," said Keith Wagers, an Alpha Delta member who gave blood.
The goal for the blood drive was 54 units according to Anderson. The goal was set by the blood center. Unfortunately the goal was not met as only 45 units of blood were collected.
"I don't think it was too bad that we didn't reach our goal with this being our first year," said Calovich. "However even though the goal was not met, 18 units of blood were collected for the ALYX machine. The ALYX machine "pumps out the blood, takes the red blood cells and then puts the rest back into your body."
According to Wagers the ALYX machine also processes the blood so that the blood can get to the hospital faster.
In addition to helping out with a good cause, the blood drive was also a source of friendly Greek competition. During the blood drive, the Greek houses were encouraged to give blood. Whichever house had the most members donate would win a cookout provided by the Alpha Delta's. This year it was a three-way tie between Kappa Sigma, Zeta Tau Alpha and Delta Gamma.
The Fraternity would like to congratulate those chapters and thank everyone who came and supported the blood drive.

Whilst iPhones and iPads get more and more powerful, enabling users to work with more demanding sites, apps and other software, there is often that frustrating aspect of having to deal with a hastily depleting battery life: as soon as you open an app.
Playing any game that requires internet access and battery life can see your frustration levels grow. It's something that tends to occur at the very time when we need our phones the most and even though developers are working hard on the problem of retaining battery life to keep things running for long before our next charge, here are a few tips on how best to save your all-important battery life.
If there are times during the day when you don't intend to or simply can't use your phone there's very little point having it on. However, you don't need to switch the entire device off just to preserve battery life simply set it to 'do not disturb'. Better still you can set it to 'airplane mode' and your phone will instantly stop network, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi-based connections. A great feature if you're heading to bed or are unable to use your phone at work, saving you plenty of battery life to use later on.
If you simply have to have a background or image-based backdrop on your phone try to pick one that's darkly colored or even choose completely blacked out wallpaper. On a device that uses an AMOLED screen, only the coloured pixels will be lit requiring less power to light them.
Shortening your screen timeout can drastically help save battery life on your mobile device. If you look at your phone for just a few seconds to check for notifications or other updates then slip it back in your pocket without locking the screen again, an overly long timeout will simply waste your battery.
You can view which apps are the most taxing on your device by going into the settings, tapping on General followed by Usage and then 'Battery'. If you are not using Facebook but see it is currently draining 10% of your battery in standby, you can close it or even delete it, to download again later when you need it.
Unless you are worried about being robbed or need to find your way to a specific destination, there is no need to the use the geolocation feature on IOS. Tracking your location for every hour of the day not only drains the battery but can also lead to privacy and security issues. Do you really want people to know your current location when you send a tweet?
The above tips should help you get the most out of your Apple device. However, if you find they still don't do enough, you may want to consider buying an external battery pack for extended hours of fun on the go.


I went to Albertsons to take advantage of their coupon deal on chicken and salad dressing. I was very happy to see that they were both still in stock as these two coupons are only good for 3 days, Friday through Sunday.
Some areas got the Ken's Dressing coupon for $1/2 but we didn't. But it was still a good deal at $.99 each.
Do you always buy your Sunday paper or do you subscribe to it? I have a subscription because it was cheaper at first, but now they have raised the price so much that I'm thinking about cancelling it. We don't really like the newspaper, I just get it for the coupons, so it won't be a big deal if we don't get it delivered.
I used to subscribe to the Sunday paper but then they changed the billing and now the only way you can get the Sunday delivered is to buy the weekend papers they have raised the price to $4 a week. I can pick up a paper at the store on Saturday and only pay $2. So I have just started to do that and it has worked out well. Although the first few weeks I almost forgot the paper when I went to the store but now I am used to picking up one when I go out on Saturdays.

We know that not everybody likes grilled food or pork meat, but we will tell you a secret, that all the best party hosts know: you just have to own one roasting box at home! Why you ask? Our pig roasters are very easy to use and require very little of your time, once they are loaded and coals are lit. And you can use your pig cooker for ANY type of meat: beef, chicken, lamb, turkey or any kind of seafood.
When we think about spring, we imagine colorful flowers, erratic weather, new life, fresh beginnings and well Spring holidays. And while we're not suggesting that you fly over to Cancun and enjoy spring break there with college students from all over, we still insist that you celebrate this wonderful season by hosting BBQ parties for loved ones and friends. Why not?
Roast Pig Cuban Style With La Caja China!
It seems like the Cuban-style roasted pork is becoming one of the best and most loved dishes served during family gatherings, special occasions and even on weekend BBQ parties. Why not?! Just the aroma of the grilling meat on a hot charcoal will already make your stomach jump up and down! In fact, even European families are also into it. And you would think only those who love Cuban dishes are its only fans!
If you are either operating a restaurant, or looking to open one, you know that it is not an easy thing to do. If you want to run a successful food business, it takes more than just a good chef. You need great staff and a signature taste that sets you apart from the competition.
Barbecue is by far one of everyone's favorite dishes. This can also be tricky to make and even harder to be consistent with your recipe or taste.
When it comes to good meals, there's few things that can beat something home cooked. Restaurants can come close, but there's just something about home cooking, a little something extra that restaurant and fast food meals just can't offer. Some call it love – either love of cooking, love for those the food is being prepared for, or just love for life.
People love to socialize, hold parties and cookouts. These are great ways to share good times and stories with family and friends.
Some common staples on these events are beer, soda and of course, the food. Have you ever thought about of how to roast a pig and having one on your next get together?
It is definitely something unique and it creates that "something new buzz" all hosts want at their party.

With this, his only Bach recording, Herbert Blomstedt pays homage to Bach and the city of Leipzig. The DVD was recorded in 2005 at the Leipzig Bach Festival, which is widely regarded as the world's leading festival celebrating Johann Sebastian Bach.
This concert of Bach's masterwork, written at the end of his tenure as the 18th Gewandhauskapellmeister did not really mark the end of Blomstedt's fruitful collaboration with the traditional orchestra. The Swedish conductor will continue to act as an honorary musical director to the ensemble. Performed with leading Bach singers at St. Thomas' Church, Leipzig, the church for which Bach conceived his works, this homage to Bach was a touching farewell to Herbert Blomstedt from his Leipzig audience.
The state-of-the-art DVD also features the popular conductor in a bonus track, where Herbert Blomstedt introduces the audience to the B minor Mass, the most important of Bach's sacred works.

Simon Crookall, general director of Hawaii Opera Theatre. Portrait by Allison Kronberg.
Artful Honolulu
From mauka to makai, the south shore is a non-stop sensory experience and a masterpiece in its own right, according to Hawaii Opera Theatre's Simon Crookall.
As the general director of Hawaii Opera Theatre, Simon Crookall is tasked with presenting a vibrant spectrum of stage productions with multi-generational appeal. He is constantly mindful about how to see old places in new, fresh lights. Crookall, a Brit-turned-kama'āina, shares his favorite venues for remaining mentally stimulated around his Honolulu backyard. — Matthew Dekneef
Of course, the beautiful scenery and nature of Hawai'i are the best natural artwork one could ever hope to see. The beaches and the mountains provide wonderful inspiration for the many artists living in these islands, and the incredible variety of foods, from poke to the shrimp shacks on the North Shore, whet the appetite for more. And, who can resist a delicious shave ice at the end of a beautiful day? For venues for man-made art, however, I have a few recommendations:
the Hawai'i State Capitol, completed in 1969; its architecture reflects the natural landscape of Hawai'i: the ocean, the volcanoes, and the vegetation.
For world-class art
With more than 50,000 artworks on two sites, the Honolulu Museum of Art is a rich treasure house of art that will take several visits to truly discover. Highlights include the stunning collections of Asian art from China, Japan, Korea, India, the Philippines, Indonesia and Southeast Asia. The 20th-century collection includes works by the great French Impressionists, such as Claude Monet and Fernand Léger, as well as American modernists like Georgia O' Keeffe and Yasuo Kuniyoshi. Be sure to take a break in the delightful Museum Café before continuing on to Spalding House, which hosts the museum's contemporary galleries.
honolulumuseum.org
For musical theatre
Hawaii Opera Theatre continues to produce world-class opera at the Blaisdell Concert Hall and other venues around the state. The current season includes classic favorites, such as Georges Bizet's ever-popular Carmen and Tchaikovsky's romantic Eugene Onegin, as well as lesser-known works like Gaetano Donizetti's Daughter of the Regiment and Laura Kaminsky's 2014 sensation As One.
hawaiiopera.org
For a lovely serenade
For a cultural activity with Hawaiian flavor, nothing beats the Halekulani's own House Without a Key, where you can sip a delicious mai tai and watch the sun set over Waikīkī while being entertained by some of the best Hawaiian musicians and hula dancers on the island. Don't miss the gorgeous dancing of Debbie Nakanelua-Richards on Sunday evenings!
For historic architecture
The cultural center of Honolulu contains some remarkable buildings, each with their own unique history. 'Iolani Palace is the only royal palace in the United States, and was the home of the Hawaiian royal family throughout the 19th century. Nearby is the Hawai'i State Capitol, completed in 1969; its architecture reflects the natural landscape of Hawai'i: the ocean, the volcanoes, and the vegetation. Across the street stands Washington Place, the official residence of the Governor of Hawai'i, and the former home and place of imprisonment of Hawai'i's last monarch, Queen Lili'uokalani. Next to Washington Place is the Cathedral of Saint Andrew, founded by King Kamehameha IV and Queen Emma in the style of an English cathedral.

Planning a railway to the High Plateau
ALGERIA: The bidding process for construction of the High Plateau line is due to start this autumn.
Dipl-Ing Jost Mazur
Head of Transport Department, Bernard Ingenieure ZT GmbH
After a difficult period of civil unrest, Algeria has begun a programme of modernisation and development. Apart from establishing new industries and launching a range of new projects, the programme envisages expansion and modernisation of the national transport infrastructure.
The state railway SNTF has for some time been examining plans to develop new lines in the area south of the Atlas mountains. Known as the High Plateau region because it lies around 1 000 m above sea level, this sparsely-populated area stretches from the Atlas foothills to the edge of the Sahara desert. Its western fringe lies on the Moroccan border, and from there it extends eastwards for around 500 km.
The High Plateau is a fertile region which has long been the country's breadbasket. Now it is to be populated and developed with the help of new infrastructure projects and industrial development. Schemes include construction of a new city, the building of motorways and railways with links to the existing rail network.
In 2005 a consortium formed of the German company Obermeyer Planen + Beraten GmbH and Bernard Ingenieure ZT GmbH of Austria was entrusted by the planning authority Aneserif (Agence National d'Etudes et de Suivi de la Réalisation des Investissements Ferroviaires) with the task of designing three key sections of a long-planned 930 km east-west railway known as the High Plateau line. The three sections run from Saida to Tiaret, Ain Oussera to M'Sila and Relizane to Tissemsilt via Tiaret.
Technical parameters specified in the consultancy tender required the route to serve the towns of Tiaret, Tissemsilt and the new city at Boughzoul before terminating at M'Sila, SNTF's railhead for the line to Barika and Ain Touta and a new line currently being built north to Bordj Bou Arreridj.
West of Saida the line will continue for 120 km to Moulay Slissen on the existing route from Oued Tlelat to Redjem Demouche.
The branch running north from Tiaret will connect at Relizane with SNTF's main line that runs parallel to the coast from Alger to Oran. The branch will be around 120 km long, and in this distance the alignment has to overcome a difference in height of around 1 000 m. Steepest gradient has been fixed at 1·6%, and there will be 6·9 km of viaducts and 3·4 km in tunnel. This line will serve Mechra a Asfra, Rahouia, Mendes and Zemoura.
West of Tiaret the route passes through a varied landscape, whereas to the east it traverses areas of marsh and dry riverbeds. The lines are intended to carry both passenger and freight traffic, and initially they will be built as single track routes and not electrified. Maximum speed has been specified as 160 km/h.
No previous studies for the route were made available to the consultants, and the consortium's engineers were faced with the task of planning from scratch new lines stretching for more than 600 km.
The consultants were required to produce a preliminary study, an initial engineering design study, and a range of documents including draft tenders and specifications.
Among the specialist tasks involved were drawing up the alignment of the railway and associated roads, development of an operating programme, design and architecture for station buildings, plans for signalling and train control, design of major structures including bridges and tunnels, hydrological studies, establishment of a comprehensive ground survey and geotechnical work including ground bore sampling and analysis. All this work has now been completed.
The first plans were generated using Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission & Reflection Radometer (Aster) data, which are based on satellite images, as well as digital Shuttle Radar Topgraphy Mission (STRM) land models on a near-global scale. These had a resolution of 15 m x 15 m and 90 m x 90 m respectively. The resulting maps allowed a broad route corridor to be established, the surface area of the corridor being roughly equivalent to the German Land of Baden-Württemberg.
Different alignments were examined for all three segments, which were then evaluated with the help of site visits and surveys. As some of the areas lay in uncharted territory, the planners had to rely on GPS data to determine their location.
The survey trips allowed photographs to be taken of locations where particular constraints existed or where it was simply not possible to route the railway. Various structures along the corridor were also recorded.
The consortium then evaluated the alignment possibilities and presented the preferred choice to the customer.
The next step was to create models of the terrain from aerial surveys with plans drawn to a scale of 1:5 000. Satellite photographs of the entire 5 000 m wide corridor were then taken. This exercise served to define plans for taking sample bores from the ground, and a corresponding programme of sampling was drawn up. Four months later laboratory analysis of the cores was available for inspection, allowing a detailed geotechnical report to be completed.
With this phase of the work over, a number of helicopter surveys were made to obtain laser scans as well as 'ortho-photos' of the route in a 1 500 m wide strip. The ortho-photos have a resolution of 250 mm by 250 mm, and the laser scans one laser point per m2. These data formed the planning basis for the tender documents and the survey of material quantities.
Alignment software
Bernard Ingenieure then drew up the detailed routes using specialist alignment drawing programs from Bentley such as InRail, while Obermeyer Planen + Beraten used its own Provi program. The software was used for 180 cross-sections, all of them generated automatically, achieving considerable time savings.
Total length of the railway designed by the German and Austrian consultants is 624 km. Construction will require about 67 million m3 of earthworks: 30·5 million m3 of embankments and 37·3 million m3 of cuttings. Major structures include five tunnels with a total length of 3·5 km, 151 rail bridges and 173 road bridges.
A total of 18 stations are envisaged for passenger traffic, and each has its own specific buildings and a forecourt. Freight will be handled at three locations where goods depots will be built. Planning for all these structures including a maintenance depot and storage locations is also being handled by the consultants.
In addition to the pure railway work, no less than 70 km of roads are needed, including main roads, local roads and unsurfaced tracks.
Documentation for the tender process was provided to the customer in the first half of 2008, and the start of tendering for the Relizane – Tiaret – Tissemsilt section is planned for the autumn. Target date for opening the new railway is 2015.
The scheme will considerably enhance the Algerian rail network and contribute to the opening up and development of the High Plateau region. Journey times between major towns and cities will be about half those required by private car today, and most significantly, high performance links will be provided to Algeria's coastal region.
The author would like to thank colleagues in Algerian Railways for their excellent co-operation, sometimes in difficult circumstances, which allowed the project to proceed.

Saving the blue parrots of South America
By Chris Baraniuk
Mario Cohn-Haft remembers the sinking feeling he had when he realised the parrot he had come to see would probably not appear before him, ever again.
He had taken a bird-watching tour to the area where the very last wild Spix's macaw, a beautiful blue parrot native to the forests of Brazil, was known to show itself. But that tour was the first he had led that couldn't spot it.
"I was one of the first people to experience it being extinct in the wild," says Cohn-Haft, an ornithologist at the National Institute of Amazonian Research.
That was 20 years ago. No verified wild specimens have been seen since. The Spix's macaw was first described in 1638 and is named after the German naturalist, Johann Baptist Ritter von Spix, who collected a specimen in 1819. It's small for a macaw, but has distinctive blue feathers, often fading to pale grey around the head. South America has many exotically coloured parrots, but the sophisticated blue plumage sets the Spix's apart from many other species on the continent.
For years, Spix's macaws were restricted to a small area of habitat in north-eastern Brazil. Deforestation in the 20th Century contributed to their decline.

The species was immortalised in the 2011 animated film Rio – the characters Blu and Jewel being the last wild pair of breeding Spix's macaws in the world. Fans of the film are often dejected to learn that the species is now considered extinct in the wild.
But today there is hope. Spix's macaws still exist. A small number of breeding pairs are currently living in captivity. Conservationists are in the middle of a project to rear healthy birds and prepare them for release into the wild. The Association for the Conservation of Threatened Parrots (ACTP) is leading current efforts. A memorandum was signed between the ACTP and Brazil's government in June this year to ensure the next phase of the project.
Cromwell Purchase, Scientific and Zoological Director at the ACTP, explains that the group plans to send 50 Spix's macaws to rehabilitation facilities in Brazil, which are currently under construction. If all goes well, the birds will be shipped from Germany in the spring of 2020. The conservation team will first practice a technique for releasing the birds on a small flock of Illiger's macaws – a green parrot with blue-tinged wings. Then, in 2021, the Spix's will be released with a small group of the Illiger's, which will hopefully help them to integrate into the forest of Caatinga, in north-eastern Brazil.
"Over the first few weeks the aviary will be open in the morning and closed at dark, birds will be allowed to return at will to get food," explains Purchase.
The real test will be whether the birds take to their native surroundings and, crucially, whether they successfully breed and rear chicks in the wild. The macaws will face natural challenges as well as the threat of poaching.

But Brazil wants the plan to work. There has been an initiative to reintroduce Spix's macaws to the wild since 2012, says Camile Lugarini at the Chico Mendes Institute for Biodiversity Conservation. She and her colleagues are working closely with the ACTP.
"There is no way to bring Spix´s back without the cooperation of the international holders," she says. South America has dozens of parrot species. Many are thriving in the wild – but blue parrots are rare. One of the most stunning parrots in the world is the Hyacinth macaw, which is in fact the world's largest by length. It can grow up to 1 metre from head to tail with a wingspan of 1.5 metres.
It is a brilliant, rich shade of blue, with a flash of yellow around its eyes and at the base of its large beak. Its wild population fell to just 2,500-3,000 by the end of the 1990s, according to the WWF. Neiva Guedes is one of the key people responsible for helping the Hyacinth macaw to recover. She set up the Hyacinth Macaw Project in 1990 and helped to design nest boxes that made it easier for the birds to breed. Today, there are thought to be up to 5,000 of the birds in the wild.
Locals who once killed Hyacinths in order to collect their feathers have been taught to protect them. Some even make money from sheltering them on their ranches as tourist attractions, says Don Brightsmith, a conservationist and expert in parrots at Texas A&M University.

"We've turned the corner now to where species like that one have really come back," he says. Knowledge of how to do reintroduce parrots successfully in South America has only really come about in the past 30 years, he adds: "We know how to reintroduce parrots, there are now multiple publications and case studies that show, yeah, we can get birds out into the wild and have them survive."
It means that there is a better chance today that the Spix's macaw reintroduction project will go well. Brightsmith notes one crucial point – the birds must be shown to rear chicks independently and successfully. Otherwise any reintroduced population will quickly collapse.
Happily, Purchase says this is something he and his colleagues are working on: "It is a long process, we have a few pairs that can now parent-rear successfully. But we still need to hand rear a few." Those macaws are some of the last survivors of their kind. But there's a glimmer of hope that they will return to their true home in Brazil. Should they flourish, the blue flash of a Spix's wings might one day be seen again by locals and, perhaps, fascinated groups of bird-watchers who have travelled to stroll beneath the canopy – and glimpse this brilliant blue macaw in the forest where it belongs.

Tomlin expects Bell to be shaper against the Vikings after another week of practice. Former coach and current ESPN commentator Rex Ryan told Sunday NFL Countdown: "Lemme tell you: I'm pissed off.

February 2021 | Will wheat price increase further?
Home Indexes Khachapuri Index
In February 2021, the average cost of cooking one standard portion of Imeretian khachapuri stood at 4.69 GEL. This is 3.1% lower MoM (compared to January 2021) and 7.8% higher YoY (in comparison to February of 2020). On a monthly basis, at this time of the year, a downward trend in the index is not unusual, and simply relates to the decreasing price of cheese (due to an increased seasonal supply of fresh milk).
Although prices fell on a monthly basis, the price of every khachapuri ingredient increased in annual terms between February 2020 and February 2021: cheese went up by 9.5%, flour by 18.8%, eggs 7.0%, yeast 16.3%, milk by 6.9%, and butter increased by 14.6%.
The highest increase in yearly terms was observed in the price of wheat flour. Given that around 99% of the total 2020 imported wheat and meslin came from Russia (Geostat, 2021), the greatest factor behind this rise was the newly introduced export restrictions on Russian grains (a tariff-rate quota for exports of 17.5 mln. metric tons of grain and an export tariff – 25 euro per ton of wheat). Starting from 1 March 2021, the export tariff has also been raised to 50 euros per ton of wheat.
These recently introduced trade barriers are expected to increase wheat prices even further. Consequently, Georgia should find ways to diversify its wheat import market and minimize any risks and uncertainties related to Russian trade. At present, the most promising alternative markets able to partially substitute wheat imports from Russia appear to be the Ukrainian and Kazakh markets.

Q: Finding circle shapefiles? I need some help finding circle shapefiles (polygons) within a database, something like tanks and silos, but they weren't classified right in OSM so looking for attributes won't help (doh!).
Is there anyway to select circles in ArcGIS or QGIS?
