Three (stylized as +HR=E) is a New Zealand nationwide television channel. Launched on 26 November 1989 as TV3, it was New Zealand's first privately owned television channel.

Applications to apply for a warrant to operate New Zealand's third national television network opened in 1985. The Broadcasting Tribunal announced in 1987 that TV3 had won the warrant. TV3 initially aimed to provide a regionally based television service, with linked studios based in each of the four areas (Auckland, Wellington, Waikato/BOP, and South Island).
There were numerous delays to the launch date of TV3. Litigation surrounded the granting of the warrant, as did the share market crash in October 1987, which wiped out a large proportion of the capital that TV3 required to establish the channel. The then Minister of Broadcasting, Richard Prebble, announced in late 1987 that much of the UHF spectrum in New Zealand was to be auctioned to allow for an increased number of television channels, resulting in a reduction in the value of TV3's warrant due to the increased competition. The drawn-out tribunal process of frequency allocation that TV3 had just won would be replaced by a bidding process that would allocate frequencies in weeks rather than months or even years.
These problems resulted in the ambitious regional plans being rationalised before being shelved completely. The network was to be based in Auckland with limited studios and news and sales teams in the other main centres.

TV3 First Transmission, 26 November 1989 via NZ on Screen
Broadcasting started on 26 November 1989 at 8:00 pm with a preview of what viewers could expect to see. After Governor-General Paul Reeves officially launched the station, the first broadcast was a two-hour special previewing the network's programmes featuring comedians David McPhail and Jon Gadsby playing cameramen. TV3's initial slogan proclaimed 'Come Home to the Feeling'; a derivative of the 'Come Home to the Best, Only on NBC' slogan used by NBC in the United States at the time. At time of launch about 60 percent of the New Zealand audience could receive TV3's regular broadcasts. Regular broadcasts began the following day, 27 November 1989, at 7:00 am.
Early in TV3's life, financial supporters of the network included ABC and NBC as a minority shareholding,[ citation needed ] who later sold their interest.
TV3 failed to gain ground against a recently revitalised TVNZ and was placed into receivership on 2 May 1990. TV3 continued to broadcast with the major creditor, Westpac Banking Corporation, supporting the network by taking a large shareholding.
As TV3 needed investment during a climate of economic recession, the government liberalised the rules on foreign ownership of television stations (raising the 15 percent cap to 49 percent and later removing all restrictions), allowing TV3 to search for an investor overseas. In December 1991, CanWest took a 20 percent shareholding in TV3 and secured a management agreement allowing it full control to operate the station. CanWest introduced tighter controls on budgets while targeting the lucrative 18- to 49-year-old audience. TV3's audience share and advertising revenue steadily increased, leading to significant profits. TV3 also steadily increased its coverage within New Zealand, adding dozens of transmitters and translators, often with the assistance of New Zealand On Air. By 1998 about 97 percent of the population could receive the channel.
On 2 October 1996, TV3 announced a reshuffling of its broadcast frequencies to enable it to launch a new network, to be called TV4 Network Limited, on the VHF band. TV4, which started on 29 June 1997, is a free-to-air network aimed at a younger audience than TV3. The launch was considered successful, with high brand recognition and ratings significantly higher than MTV, TV4's television rival. TV4's opening broadcast was the controversial Tyson–Holyfield boxing rematch. [1]
In April 1997 CanWest purchased Westpac's 48 percent shareholding in TV3, taking CanWest's stake to 68 percent. In June CanWest picked up the More FM Radio network, followed in November with the purchase of the remaining 32 percent of TV3. In April 1998, CanWest announced that it had made C$22 million in the six months to February 1998 in New Zealand, up a third on the same period the year before. TV4 contributed positively to the result, with some of the increase due to the inclusion of More FM, while TV3 was continuing to experience strong revenue growth.
Canwest's investments in New Zealand had developed considerably in New Zealand over the period that it had interests in the country. TV4 continued to be a source of concern for the broadcaster, but the position of TV3 was strengthened by alliances with SKY Television for sport and a series of high-profile mistakes by TVNZ as it dealt with the dominance of SKY in pay television. The election of the Labour government in 1999 refocused TVNZ as a semi-non-commercial broadcaster, no longer ratings-driven and no longer attempting to dominate the free to air television market. As a commercial broadcaster, TV3 was in a position to take advantage of TVNZ's change of focus.
TV3 logo used from 2003 to 2017
During 2004 the station was transferred into the ownership of Canwest MediaWorks New Zealand as a way of listing 30 percent of the Canadian company's New Zealand assets on the New Zealand share market. TV3's parent company TVWorks announced its annual revenue at $124 million in October 2004, which was $13 million up from the previous financial year.
In May 2007 it was announced that Ironbridge Capital, an Australian private equity firm, was paying $386 million or $2.43 a share for the 70 percent of CanWest MediaWorks New Zealand owned by CanWest Global Communications. It was also offering the same price to minority shareholders under a full takeover bid.
On 1 April 2008, TV3 became the first New Zealand television network to introduce high-definition television, to coincide with the launch of Freeview HD and MySky HDi in New Zealand. The first programme to broadcast in true 1080i high definition (i.e. not upscaled) was that night's screening of Boston Legal .
On 17 June 2013 the parent company of TV3 went into receivership, this being the second receivership for TV3. When TV3's parent company Mediaworks was purchased by Ironbridge Capital they took on $700 Million of debt which could no longer be sustained. Following the receivership TV3 and the radio stations owned by Mediaworks remained on air and all staff have retained their jobs. [2] Shares in the company were gradually and completely bought out by US hedge fund Oaktree Capital Management. [3]
Former 3NOW logo used until 2017
Since 3 July 2016, with the closure of sister channel Four, some of its programming, such as Sticky TV, moved over to TV3 in a new daytime lineup.
On 9 February 2017, TV3 underwent a major re-branding, changing its name to Three and adopting a new logo and on-air imaging. The new brand was promoted as being "vibrant, playful, and inspiring"; chief content officer Andrew Szusterman explained that TV3 as a brand had not evolved with its programming, and that "a channel this strong, with content this strong, should be bigger than the sum of its parts and it should represent the content itself whereas the pieces of content were living in isolation." The new imaging was widely criticized by viewers, particularly the unusual design and stylization of its new logo as "+HR=E". [4] [5] [6]
A second sister channel, ThreeLife, was launched on 15 April 2018.
On 18 October 2019, Mediaworks announced Three was for sale. [7]
On 25 March 2020, ThreeLife went off air, and was replaced by the return of The Edge TV and new channel, The Breeze TV. [8]
In early September 2020, MediaWorks confirmed that it would be selling its television media assets, which include Three, to the US mass media multinational company Discovery, Inc. [9] [10] [11]
On 1 December 2020, Discovery, Inc completed the acquisition of MediaWorks TV Limited. This acquisition also includes sister channels The Edge TV, The Breeze TV and Bravo, as well as news service Newshub.

Mediaworks acquired a first-run and re-run contract with HD sourced material for 20th Century Fox Television content (which includes films under the brands 20th Century Fox, DreamWorks Animation – 2008 to present, Fox Atomic, Fox Searchlight Pictures, Icon Films – 2007 to 2012, now belongs to Prime Television New Zealand and Regency Enterprises), which was previously held by TVNZ. When TVNZ outbid them for their previous Disney Media Distribution contract. In 2015, they had the rights to Metro Goldwyn Mayer for more recent films.
Exclusive contracts with CBS News, ITV News and Seven News for international news coverage.
Mediaworks has long held first-option contracts with NBC Universal (which includes films under the brands Focus Features and Universal Pictures) with select HD material from February 2011. [12] As well as until the start of the US 2012 season, [13] a first-option contract with CBS Television Distribution (which included films under the brands Paramount Pictures and non-animated DreamWorks Pictures) with select HD material from the end of 2012, this deal came to an end for new content from the start of 2013. From mid-2013, TV3 secured a first option deal with Sony Pictures Television for new content for TV series and movies that will be scheduled for late 2013 and the 2014 season. This deal signals a move away from the more expensive exclusive Fox deal, which is still under re-negotiation following the broadcaster's change in ownership. [14]
On 20 December, MediaWorks re-signed a revised down scaled exclusive deal with Fox. [15] As a result of their receivership, they lost their first-option rights over NBC-Universal shows, which resulted in TVNZ acquiring the rights to Brooklyn Nine Nine in 2014. They also lost their rights to air 20th Television programmes, which resulted Prime Television New Zealand to air Sleepy Hollow, and Television New Zealand to air Empire.
From launch in November 1989 until digital television transition was completed on 1 December 2013, TV3 broadcast terrestrially using the analogue PAL-B&G. Except for Kapiti where it broadcast on ITU Band IV (UHF), TV3 broadcast in the main urban areas on ITU band III (VHF high). In other areas and infill transmitters in the main urban areas, it broadcast on either band I (VHF low), band III, band IV or band V (UHF). [16] [17] In some areas, TV3's analogue broadcast was on a different transmitter from TV One and TV2's analogue broadcasts, and viewers needed an additional antenna to pick up the channel; these included Hamilton, Tauranga, Taupo, Gisborne, Kapiti, Masterton, and Nelson.
Three is a broadcasting member of the Freeview platform as well as broadcasting on Sky Digital. TV3 began screening widescreen transmissions on both platforms on 11 April 2007, although TelstraClear InHomeTV, which gets most of its content from SKY Digital, switched back to screening the cropped version of TV3 for a couple of months due to non-widescreen customer complaints. TelstraClear resumed broadcasting the widescreen version of TV3 on 24 July 2007. In April 2008 TV3 commenced 1080i high definition broadcasts on the Freeview|HD terrestrial platform and on Sky's HD satellite platform.
Three also broadcasts a livestream of the Auckland feed on its website. [18]

YAKIMA, Wash.– Farmers have been devastated across the Yakima Valley, as strong winds of up to 80 miles per hour, and cold conditions have killed about 1,600 cows according to the Yakima Valley Dairy Farmers Association.
Yakima Valley Dairy Farmers are continuing to prepare as more snow is expected to hit the Valley, they're adding extra bedding to insulate areas for cows to lay in, adding extra feed, and thawing water troughs with hot water.
With severe winter weather continuing to occur in in eastern Washington throughout the next week, dairy farmers are assessing their current losses and preparing for the next round of snow and wind.

Blessed William Joseph Chaminade said, "We are all missionaries, and we consider ourselves on a permanent mission." In September, high school and middle school students were commissioned to start or continue their journey of service in a special Apostolic Works Commissioning Mass held on each campus. Throughout each Mass, the message was clear, as a community we must continue the mission of the apostles and follow in the path of Mary and become agents of change.
The Apostolic Works Service Learning Program is rooted in the Catholic, Marianist tradition of being in alliance with Mary's mission: to nurture Christ in others and communities to transform the world by giving service to those in need through various methods of outreach. It empowers students to discern their gifts and apply them to organizations that expose them to life situations different from their own to become agents of change. From middle school through high school, students will experience a progressive growth in their responsibility of service from one grade level to the next. The program also spurs students to question why service and transformation are necessary, what changes have to be made, who needs to be served, what motivations move one to serve, and how adaptations and changes might be practically affected. Students discover an opportunity to connect the knowledge or skill they learn in a classroom with how it can be used to help others or transform conditions in their community.

After Bro. Skip's passing in December 2016, several students proposed putting together a Chaminade service project to keep his memory alive. The inaugural event took place on a Saturday in March, and more than 100 students and faculty from both campuses served three organizations, the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank, MEND, and Heal the Bay.
The day started in Campus Ministry (West Hills), and the group joined in prayer before leaving on buses to their destinations. The Student Council sponsored bus sponsored headed to the Food Bank, the largest in the United States serving several millions of people each year. Students helped by sorting donated foods and checking expiration dates and quality of canned foods before sending them down a conveyor belt for packaging. By the day's end, they sorted 29,737 pounds of food!
MEND Poverty volunteers cooked meals and worked in the organization's mailroom. Their work doubled as a cooking lesson, and they had an opportunity to taste the food MEND clients would be served the next day. This bus was sponsored by Chaminade's Caring Hearts and Homeless Hearts Clubs.
The Key Club and Environmental Eagles Clubs joined forces to sponsor the third bus, which took Chaminade students and faculty to participate in Heal the Bay activities. With more than 1,000 other volunteers, including Chaminade's middle school students, the group worked to keep Southern California's beaches clean.
Chaminade Service Day happened thanks to the efforts and commitment of Keegan Coppola '17, Nick Sederlin '17, Monty Balleweg '17, Cristian Puente-Ortiz '17, Tina Najm '17, Erin Fabian '17, Tina Pan '17, and Alec Simoni '18. High School Principal, Bro. Tom Fahy; Director of Campus Ministry, Shawna Sedik; and Director of Student Activites, Julie La Belle helped the students to determine how the day would unfold. The students each took ownership of a specific project, promoted Service Day, led ice breakers on the bus, and served as group leads at each service site on the day of the event.
Each service group had an amazing experience and impacted their local communities through a few hours of service. Campus Ministry and Student Activities hope to continue to offer Chaminade Service Day, work more with the middle school, and double the number of students who will go out and keep Brother Skip's legacy alive.
Funds raised during Chaminade Gala's fund-a-need on April 8 will establish the Bro. Skip Matthews Apostolic Works Endowment. This endowment will help fund projects like Chaminade Service Day, which will ultimately enhance one of the most important parts of the educational experience at Chaminade – Apostolic Works.
Since 1994, Bro. Francis "Skip" Matthews, S.M. has been a fixture in the Chaminade family. He has graced the school with his infectious smile, boundless energy, and irreplaceable spirit.
Chaminade College Preparatory is deeply saddened to announce Bro. Skip died on December 14, 2016 in Cupertino, California. He was 77 years-old, with 57 years of religious profession. The entire school family will miss his presence on campus, be it through his work in Campus Ministry, supervisory time in the cafeteria, substituting in the classroom, or to discuss social justice, the Dodgers, or the previous night's Chaminade basketball game. You could always count on a resounding, "Hello," if you saw an older, white pick-up truck in the parking lot.
A native Angeleno, Bro. Skip was raised in Manhattan Beach. He attended grade school at American Martyrs, and later Junipero Serra High School in Gardena. He professed his first vows in 1959, in Santa Cruz. He studied with the Brothers of St. John of God at their Los Angeles hospital, and learned the fundamentals of nursing and caring for the elderly. In 1962, he made perpetual profession in the Society of Mary.
In his early ministry, Bro. Skip served in health care and directed the Marianist Infirmary in Honolulu, Hawaii. Ten years later, he became a paramedic at a remote facility in Zambia. He served there for 18 years, and also assisted with work at Matero Boys Secondary School, a Marianist school in Lusaka.
In addition to his ministry at Chaminade, Bro. Skip volunteered at hospice and the Good Shepherd Shelter, a safe house for battered women and children. He also visited Skid Row twice a week to help the homeless and spend time with them. For more than 20 years, from December 1 to 24, Bro. Skip set up a table and offered to write cards to family members and friends of people living on Skid Row. This year, Bro. Skip could not do his usual work, but over the summer he collected clothes for to the Good Shepherd Shelter and cards for the Los Angeles Catholic Worker. The items were recently donated to both organizations by the Marianist Community.

I've studied Communication and Public Relations, during which time I was also part of an international youth organisation where I "tasted" for the first time recruitment. 2 years later, I started my official career in technology recruitment.
Having recently joined Click Digital, I can say that I am happy I am able to combine the best of both worlds: communicate with smart people and professionals in their field, and represent them to make sure they get the best job possible.
Click Digital has and still is offering me the perfect environment to develop my skills and be up-to-date with the latest technologies – something Click instil into all of their consultants.
I do enjoy a smart conversation, a funny joke and a good cup of tea!


The 2018 AMA EnduroCross Championship Series returns to Angel Of The Winds Arena on October 27. Known as the "toughest racing on two wheels," this indoor off road racing will certainly keep fans on their feet.
EnduroCross tracks incorporate various elements of extreme off road racing into a Supercross-style setting, including rocks, boulders, logs, sand, mud, a water-hole and even a few special obstacles such as giant tires. The excitement of EnduroCross is the unpredictability of the track conditions and obstacles; despite the high skill of the riders, a slippery rock or ascended monster truck tire could spell doom for the competitors. The insane gnarly joker lane also returns, which every pro rider must navigate at least once to win.
More information on the AMA EnduroCross Championship Series can be found at www.endurocross.com.

CITU
Charter of Demands
Struggles and Experiences
Memorandums
Save ICDS
Can any country develop without its children's development?
Marching Ahead
AIFAWH demands that the Ministry of Women and Child Development must clarify its position on Cash transfer in ICDS
STOP MISLEADING THE PEOPLE;
CLARIFY THE STEPS BY THE MINISTRY OF WCD
STOP THE PROPOSALS FOR DBT/CCT AND PACKAGED FOOD IN ICDS
The Ministry of WCD on 12 October 2017 issued a statement that the "There is no proposal to discontinue Supplementary Nutrition Program under ICDS and replace it with Conditional Cash Transfer". The statement says "There have been reports in the Media that the Ministry of Women and Child Development is contemplating to dismantle the supplementary nutrition component of the ICDS programme and replace it with conditional cash transfer. It is pointed out that these reports are not based on correct factual position"(underline added)
The media reports which appeared in most of the National dailies on 20th September 2017 contained two statements from the Ministry of WCD – first one quoted the Minister for WCD Smt. Maneka Gandhi addressing a meeting of officials from 130 districts on 19 September 2017. As per the reports she said that "our delivery system has always been dependent on anganwadis. Anganwadi stopped being an effective delivery system 20 years ago." So, the minister reportedly suggested that nutrient packages should be delivered through post offices. "Thirty packages can be delivered through the post office to every family that has a baby and a pregnant mother. Since it is not vegetable or rice, it cannot be misused or sold in the market," she said.
Secondly the media reported media briefing by Shri. Rakesh Srivastava, Secretary, WCD Ministry that the Centre is considering cash transfers under the Integrated Child Development Scheme (ICDS) instead of take home rations for children under three and pregnant and lactating mothers in Anganwadis. He is quoted "DBT (direct benefits transfer) is being considered in the Ministry (Women & Child Development), and a decision will be taken soon."
The news report quotes a ministry official says "In the first phase, we will cover 300 of the most backward districts where, as per data, the extent of malnutrition and stunting of children is the highest. This will be followed by the remaining districts a year later."
Based on the above statements and also on various other statements and documents by the ministry, various organisations, activists and concerned individuals has given representations issued statements and organised protests against these moves.
All India Federation of Anganwadi Workers and Helpers has always been opposed to the replacement of freshly cooked locally available food to be served in anganwadi centres as envisaged in the very basic design of anganwadis to combat malnutrition with either packaged food or with cash transfer.
AIFAWH had organised protests throughout the country on 22/23 September 2017 itself against these proposals by the ministry and submitted memorandums to the concerned governments. In many places of the country various programmes are continuing. Many other organisations and movements have also represented to the ministry as per reports. That may be the reason behind the clarification by the ministry which came as a Press Information Bureau release dated 12 October 2017.
But simply saying that "There is no proposal to discontinue the supplementary nutrition programme under ICDS and replace it with conditional cash transfer. The reports appearing in the Media therefore are factually incorrect" will not be enough. The people of the country would like to have some clarifications from the Ministry.First of all, the Ministry has not denied the reported statements by the WCD Minister Smt. Maneka Gandhi or the Secretary Shri. Rakesh Shrivastava. It has to clarify whether they deny these statements or must explain what the minister and secretary meant by these statements.
Secondly, the Ministry in its statement made to clarify regarding same cash transfer and linking of Aadhar, issued on 9th March 2017 states that "There have also been complaints about the quality of Take Home Rations (THR). Therefore, the Government is considering ways to improve the system and to make it more transparent. It is also exploring the possibility of Conditional Cash Transfer in lieu of THR in select districts as a pilot as one of the options. However, a final decision is yet to be taken in this regard."
The Ministry shall clarify what is the result of its "exploration" and what is the "final decision" regarding this and who is taking that decision. If on 9th March 2017 the Ministry says the decisions on the Pilot projects are yet to be taken, how come the Ministry in its letter no F No.19/10/2016-WBP dated 5th January 2017, directed the Governments of Delhi, Uttarakhand and Odisha to immediately start implementing the pilot innovation projects under ISSNIP replacing THR with Conditional Cash Transfer?(Copy enclosed).
The Ministry has to clarify that whether they have directed other states as well to implement pilot projects replacing THR with cash transfer. In many states like West Bengal, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh, Bihar etc, the state departments are directing the anganwadi workers to link the beneficiaries' Aadhar number with their parents' bank accounts for cash transfer. Moreover, it is not clear from any of the ministry's statements that whether they are implementing a direct benefit transfer or conditional cash transfer.
It was always been a tactics by the ruling classes to give different opinions at the same time (here different statements by different officials/ ministers) to mislead the people. AIFAWH demand that the ministry declare that it will not implement DBT/CCT or packaged food in place of freshly cooked food in anganwadis.
AIFAWH calls upon the affiliated unions and the anganwadi workers and helpers to intensify the campaign and struggles for strengthening the ICDS and for the rights of the anganwadi workers and helpers.

Climate Impacts on Water Resources
Water Cycle and Water Demand
Impacts of Changes in Water Resources on Other Sectors
Warming temperatures, changes in precipitation and runoff, and sea level rise have affected and will likely continue to affect water supply and quality.
Changes will vary in different regions of the United States; potential effects include increased flooding and drought, water quality impairment, and salt water intrusion to coastal water supplies.
Changes to our water resources affect many sectors, including energy production, infrastructure, human health, agriculture, and ecosystems.

Water resources are important to both society and ecosystems. We depend on a reliable, clean supply of drinking water to sustain our health. We also need water for agriculture, energy production, navigation, recreation, and manufacturing. Many of these uses put pressure on water resources, stresses that are likely to be exacerbated by climate change.

Energy.gov (Information about renewable energy production, including hydroelectricity, by state)
In many areas, climate change is likely to increase water demand while shrinking water supplies. This shifting balance would challenge water managers to simultaneously meet the needs of growing communities, sensitive ecosystems, farmers, ranchers, energy producers, and manufacturers.
In some areas, water shortages will be less of a problem than increases in runoff, flooding, or sea level rise. These effects can reduce the quality of water and can damage the infrastructure that we use to transport and deliver water.
The water cycle (shown in the following figure) is a delicate balance of precipitation, evaporation, and all of the steps in between. Warmer temperatures increase the rate of evaporation of water into the atmosphere, in effect increasing the atmosphere's capacity to "hold" water.[1] Increased evaporation may dry out some areas and fall as excess precipitation on other areas.
Changes in the amount of rain falling during storms provide evidence that the water cycle is already changing. Over the past 50 years, the amount of rain falling during very heavy precipitation events has increased for most of the United States. This trend has been greatest in the Northeast, Midwest, and upper Great Plains, where the amount of rain falling during the most intense 1% of storms has increased more than 30%.[1] Warming winter temperatures cause more precipitation to fall as rain rather than snow. Furthermore, rising temperatures cause snow to begin melting earlier in the year. This alters the timing of streamflow in rivers that have their sources in mountainous areas.[1]
As temperatures rise, people and animals need more water to maintain their health and thrive. Many important economic activities, like producing energy at power plants, raising livestock, and growing food crops, also require water. The amount of water available for these activities may be reduced as Earth warms and if competition for water resources increases.[1]
Projected changes in the water cycle. Source: USGCRP 2009
Colorado River Water Supply[1][2]
The Colorado River system is a major source of water supply for the Southwest. It supplies water for 33 million people in the cities of Los Angeles, Phoenix, Las Vegas, and Denver. Recent droughts, reductions in winter precipitation and snow pack, and warmer, drier springs have caused water supplies in Colorado River reservoirs to decrease. Expected climate change impacts on Colorado River water supply include:
Increased year-to-year changes in water storage in reservoirs are possible, even under current conditions.
Decreased hydropower. For every 1% decrease in streamflow in the Colorado River Basin, there is a 3% decrease in hydroelectric power generation for the region.
Reductions in river discharge and runoff from snowmelt. Annual snowmelt runoff could also shift to earlier in the spring.
Matching satellite images show the decline in Lake Powell and the Colorado River between 1999 and 2014. NASA (2014)Many areas of the United States, especially the West, currently face water shortages. The amount of water available in these areas is already limited, and demand will continue to rise as population grows. Many areas in the West have experienced less rain over the past 50 years, as well as increases in the severity and length of droughts; this has been especially of concern in the Southwest.[1][3]
In the western part of the United States, less total annual rainfall, less snowpack in the mountains, and earlier snowmelt mean that less water will likely be available during the summer months when demand is highest. This will make it more difficult for water managers to satisfy water demands throughout the course of the year.[2][5]
Water quality could suffer in areas experiencing increases in rainfall. For example, in the Northeast and Midwest increases in heavy precipitation events could cause problems for the water infrastructure, as sewer systems and water treatment plants are overwhelmed by the increased volumes of water.[1] Heavy downpours can increase the amount of runoff into rivers and lakes, washing sediment, nutrients, pollutants, trash, animal waste, and other materials into water supplies, making them unusable, unsafe, or in need of water treatment.[2] For information about how climate change and water quality affect public health, visit the Health Impacts & Adaptation page.
Heavy rain in 2004 damaged the city water system in Asheville, North Carolina. Source: USGCRP (2009)Freshwater resources along the coasts face risks from sea level rise. As the sea rises, saltwater moves into freshwater areas. This may force water managers to seek other sources of fresh water, or increase the need for desalination (or removal of salt from the water) for some coastal freshwater aquifers used as drinking water supply.[1] In addition, as more freshwater is removed from rivers for human use, saltwater will move farther upstream. Drought can cause coastal water resources to become more saline as freshwater supplies from rivers are reduced. Water infrastructure in coastal cities, including sewer systems and wastewater treatment facilities, faces risks from rising sea levels and the damaging impacts of storm surges.[2]
Coastal Water Supply [1][4][5][6][7]
The quality of water supply in coastal and island regions is at risk from rising sea level and changes in precipitation. Rising sea level and the occurrence of drought can increase the salinity of both surface water and ground water through salt water intrusion.
For example, the freshwater Everglades currently recharge Florida's Biscayne aquifer, a natural underground area that collects water and is the primary water supply to the Florida Keys. If rising sea levels submerge low-lying areas of the Everglades, portions of the aquifer would become saline. Sea level rise can also push salty water upstream in coastal areas, threatening surface water supplies. Aquifers in New Jersey east of Philadelphia are recharged by fresh portions of the Delaware River, which become saline during severe droughts.
Freshwater resources on some islands, especially small islands and atolls, can be limited, as supply depends on shallow aquifers, which are recharged by precipitation. These freshwater lenses float on top of the saltwater, and rising sea level diminishes the area above sea level in which the lens can reside. (For more detailed information, see the illustration on page 158 of this Climate Change Science Program Report(320 pp, 7.6 M, About PDF)). Sea level rise can turn these shallow aquifers brackish through saltwater intrusion and droughts reduce the water available from other sources, further stressing these limited water supplies.
The Biscayne Aquifer provides almost all of the freshwater for the Keys, Miami, and the lower East Coast of Florida. Although a small part of the aquifer is beneath salty mangrove area, most of it is recharged by the freshwater Everglades. As sea level rises, saltwater will invade part of the Everglades, threatening both that ecosystem and the aquifer that lies beneath it.

Prince Harry just revealed one of his favourite baby names
This is so sweet!
October 18, 2018 - 05:32 BST Fiona Ward Prince Harry just revealed one of his favourite baby names – and you might be surprised! Find out what it is
Prince Harry and wife Meghan may have only just announced they are expecting their first royal baby in the spring, but the doting dad-to-be is already talking baby names, as he revealed one of his favourites during a walkabout in Melbourne on Thursday. After spending 25 minutes talking to well wishers and accepting plenty of sweet gifts including cuddly toys, flags, newspaper cuttings and handmade trinkets, the Duke and Duchess stopped to meet five-and-a-half-month-old Harriet Bonaddido and talk to her mum, Jessica.
Harry and Meghan were met with plenty of well wishers in Melbourne
The 28-year-old mother said: "As soon as I introduced my daughter to Harry he said, 'that's a great name'. Maybe they will choose it for their own child which would be fun." Aw! Of course, the Prince is most likely alluding to the similarity to his own name – and we doubt he was giving any clues as to his own choices. Jessica added: "Meghan was right behind him and was playfully tickling her toes and said how sweet it was that I'd brought her out today."

The royal couple certainly seem to be enjoying their time down under, and have spent time meeting plenty of children and young people, showing their natural affinity with youngsters. And since making their baby announcement, they've not been shy about chatting about their upcoming arrival – later on Thursday, they were questioned about their thoughts on baby names by an excited group of schoolchildren, who joined the couple on a short tram ride to the beach.
Meghan showed off her sweet baby bump on day three of the trip
Charlie Wolf, a 12-year-old student from Middle Park primary school, asked if the couple had any names for their baby. The children said Meghan replied with: "We've been given a long list of names from everyone, we're going to sit down and have a look at them." Ella Burns, a 12-year-old pupil from Albert Park primary school added: "She said that she hadn't thought of one as it was still quite early."

Earlier in the trip, Harry even commenting on the gender of the baby. He concluded a speech on Tuesday by saying: "And we also genuinely couldn't think of a better place to announce the upcoming baby, whether it's a boy or a girl, so thank you very, very much." The Duchess has also spoken openly about her first pregnancy, revealing she's doing "pretty well" but is suffering a little from tiredness. Meghan, for whom the trip is her first full-scale official royal tour, told a fellow mother on Wednesday that so far she is "running on adrenaline". We're not surprised!

Ossining Churches
High Victorian Gothic architecture, which evolved from the older Gothic Revival style, differs
from that style in its use of contrasting polychromatic bands on the exterior wall surfaces and
more elaborate decorative elements. This style was usually reserved for public buildings such as
schools or churches. As it is related to the Gothic Revival architecture, structures in this style also contain such elements as steeply pitched rooflines, elaborate ornamentation, and a predominantly
vertical orientation.
The First Presbyterian Church is two stories in height with rectangular massing. The front façade
is dominated by two front towers on either side of the main entryway. Typical of the High
Victorian Gothic style, the church makes use of the polychrome theme with the contrasting brick
colors on window sills, lintels, surrounds, buttress caps, and surrounding the main entrance. The
gothic pointed arch motif is used for window openings and entryways. The gabled main entrance,
which faces South Highland Avenue, is surrounded with elaborate limestone work. The church
originally was constructed with a tall steeple on the southeast tower that was subsequently
removed in the 1950s when the building was renovated and modernized. The church is
constructed with brick and limestone.
Significance: Architectural and Cultural
The First Presbyterian Church is National Register-listed as a contributing structure within the
Downtown Ossining Historic District. It is architecturally significant as a well preserved example
of High Victorian Gothic architecture within Ossining. Other structures of this style include the
First Baptist Church (see entry) and the First Presbyterian Church (see entry). This structure is
also culturally significant as the home of the First Presbyterian Congregation of Ossining.
The First Presbyterian Congregation was formed in 1763 and originally occupied a site located in
what is now Sparta Cemetery on land donated by Frederick Phillipse, owner of the vast Phillipse
Estate that stretched from modern-day Kingsbridge, Bronx to the Croton River. The original
building was damaged during the Revolutionary War, prompting the congregation to build a new
structure in the village of Sing Sing on the site of the current Trinity Episcopal Church at 7 South
Highland Avenue in 1803. As the congregation grew, this church was expanded until it was no
longer adequate to house all those who wished to worship there. The present church was
constructed from 1868 to 1870 for a cost of approximately $95,000 by contractor Peter H.
Terhune of Binghamton, NY and designed by architect Isaac Gale Perry. Perry was later
appointed as the State Architect for the State of New York and designed the final phase of the
New York State Capitol in Albany from 1883 to 1899 as well as the New York State Armory in
Poughkeepsie in 1891.

Background: Iodine deficiency (ID) is a major cause of brain damage if not corrected in early pregnancy. Even mild ID leads to measurable neurointellectual impairment. The iodine global network (IGN), previously the international council for the control of iodine deficiency disorders (ICCIDD), has achieved remarkable progress in facilitating iodine nutritional sufficiency in about 70-80% of countries in the world during the past 3 decades or so.
Results: At present there are 25 countries with documented iodine deficiency. However, there are still many countries, especially in Europe, with mild iodine deficiency which require active interventional strategies to ensure adequate iodine nutrition. In this context, rigorous monitoring of iodine status is essential to ensure adequate iodisation.
Conclusion: The IGN, with 10 world-wide regional coordinators and 100 national coordinators is well placed to implement appropriate strategies to achieve these goals. The recent award of a Horizon 20/20 grant to European stakeholders to harmonise iodine supply in Europe emphasises the commitment of the EU to make improvement in the global iodine health. There are no relevant recent patents for this report.

Creating a Left ToolbarItem in Xamarin.Forms – The Life and Pondering of Me.
TL;DR: If you're looking for just the code, you can jump straight to it here.
I've been winding down 2015 by focusing on learning new subjects and improving my existing skills. Most of December was occupied with writing my first-ever app and I've been using Xamarin.Forms to create my UI. For those of you who are unfamiliar with it, Xamarin.Forms is a cross-platform toolkit for creating native user interfaces for iOS, Andriod, and Windows Phone apps. The native part is important here; simply put, I can code one UI, and Xamarin.Forms will do the heavy lifting for me, mapping my control as the equivalent control on each platform. If you are interested in how Xamarin.Forms works, I highly suggest reading the documentation, including Charles Petzold's new book 'Creating Mobile Apps with Xamarin.Forms'.
One extremely useful feature of Xamarin.Forms is Custom Renderers. If there is something the toolkit doesn't provide, or if you want to change a default appearance or behavior, you can create a custom renderer and voilà, your needs have been met!
While writing my app one problem I had was creating a lefthand bar button for a modal page on iOS, which is not possible by default in Xamarin.Forms.
Xamarin.Forms does not let you change the position of the ToolbarItems, but that isn't enough to stop me me adjusting it. Fortunately, custom renderers save the day!
I'm not going to use this post to explore creating custom renderers as Xamarin's documentation already does a great job of explaining how to create and use them. If you are unfamiliar with them, I recommend reading the docs.
Great…so what's going on here?
First, I used the attribute, shown below, to tell Xamarin.Forms that we are using a custom renderer. This attribute takes two parameters: the type name of the Xamarin.Forms page being rendered (In our example FridgeContentPage), and the type name of the custom renderer (FridgeContentPageRenderer in this example).
Huzzah! It works as expected.
Of course there are improvements that could be made to this custom renderer; null-checking jumps out as a big one. This is where I encourage you, dear reader, to use my code and make it better!
I have no idea what you are articulating about but it was very impressive!! All Hail the GREAT XAMARIN.FORMS!
Unfortunately this no longer works as of XF 2.2 as the ContentPage.ToolbarItems collection (line 20) is empty.
Ah! Thanks for that. I haven't had a chance to revisit this since the latest X.F drop. I'll fix and update in a bit.
I tested in X.F. 2.3.0.49 and works perfectly. Very easy to understand and apply.
A doubt: you say that in Android devices, the users use hardware button to go back. So, in this case, not is recomended implement custom render for Android to provide left button in this platform?
Thank you for your article, is very helpful!
Thank you very much this is exactly what I was looking for!
After I add a new Page to the NavigationStack and Close it the App will crash?
This is by far the easiest solution for me to implement and works well. Thank you for sharing this with the Xamarin community.
Is the CustomRenderer somehow interfering with the default back button on he left of the Nav Bar?
For anyone else who may stumble across this blog page. The defect that exists in this renderer is that it assumes there are always two RightBarButtonItems. However if you 'Navigation.Push' or 'Navigation.PushModal' another Page onto the Stack and then navigate back, the Custom Renderer is called again and crashes. This is because you have already moved the 'Cancel' button to the left when the Page was first created.
1. my dashboard already have 2 toolbar item.
2. I need to redirect to another page (using INavigatedAware). After i click back, the apps will crash.
NavigationController is always throwing null reference exception. How can i solve this issue?
Hi i want to remove space infront of left item(Cancel) and back side of right item(Save),i am working with xamarin.forms ,could you please help me on this ,thanks in advance.
Wonderful! Thank you so much for this!

Dubai luxury: A guide to the Palm Jumeirah
By: Gareth Rees
One of the bigger, better, bonkers mega projects that first attracted the attention of the world's media to Dubai, Palm Jumeirah is one of the emirate's most iconic landmarks. A man-made island in the shape of a palm tree, comprised of a 2km long trunk and 17 fronds encircled by a crescent, it might not be the "eighth wonder of the world", but it is an extraordinary feat and worth a visit simply to tick it off your bucket list.
When Sol Kernzner's famed Atlantis, The Palm opened in 2008 with a launch party costing a reported £15 million and attended by an embarrassment of celebrities who were treated to a performance by Kylie Minogue and a pyrotechnic display featuring one million fireworks, there was little else to entice people to the Palm.
Thankfully, Atlantis has much to offer. You won't regret an afternoon at its Aquaventure Waterpark, an hour or two diving or simply ogling the sea life in its Lost Chambers aquarium or an evening at Nobu, Ronda Locatelli or the recently opened Gordon Ramsay's Bread Street Kitchen & Bar.
Anantara The Palm Dubai Resort, located on the East Crescent of the Palm, features the only over-water villas in the UAE © Anantara The Palm Dubai Resort
But the Palm is now a popular residential neighbourhood and many of the five-star properties that dot the island's crescent offer a calmer atmosphere for residents and tourists looking for a more low-key experience.
Start early with a jog on the 3.2km running track in Al Ittihad Park, which offers more than 60 species of trees and plants, or an hour of kayaking or paddle boarding at Riva beach club. If you have chosen the latter option, you will be perfectly located to enjoy a healthy breakfast at Sophie's, a popular organic café on the lower ground floor of the beach club.
Many of the properties on the Palm offer a clear view of the Dubai skyline © Fairmont The Palm
Work off your scrambled eggs with an afternoon exploring on a bicycle hired from one of the island's seven nextbike stations.
Having negotiated the outer reaches of the Palm, enjoy a cooking lesson at Anantara The Palm Dubai resort's Spice Spoons cooking school, where Chef Li Helin will teach you how to prepare three authentic Thai dishes, which you can then eat for lunch. Or, if it's the weekend, you might want to experience the famous Dubai brunch. Try chef Fernando Lima's Brazilian brunch at Fairmont The Palm's Frevo churrascaria, which promises succulent meats and Samba.
The best way to enjoy the Palm is to book a room at one of its many five-star hotels © Fairmont The Palm
Relax with an afternoon of indulgence in Jumeirah Zabeel Saray's Talise Ottoman Spa. After a traditional Turkish hammam treatment, administered on a marble slab beneath an exquisite domed mosaic ceiling, you can while away the pre-cocktail hours in the sauna, steam room or bobbing in one of two thalassotherapy pools.
If you are not staying on the Palm but have made a reservation at One & Only The Palm's 101, you can travel to the bar-restaurant by private boat from One & Only Royal Mirage © One & Only The Palm
One & Only The Palm's 101 is the most scenic spot for a sundowner, which can be sipped above the water while taking in the view of the Dubai skyline. Deciding where to eat dinner won't be easy, but it would be hard to beat the Italian menu at Social by Heinz Beck at the Waldorf Astoria. Beck is one of the world's most celebrated chefs, and his La Pergola restaurant in Rome has been awarded three Michelin stars.
Waldorf Astoria Dubai Palm Jumeirah is one of the newest hotels on the Palm © Waldorf Astoria Dubai Palm Jumeirah
For evening entertainment, there is only one place to go: Music Hall. Located at Jumeirah Zabeel Saray, the timeless cabaret club represents one of the best nights out in Dubai. Make sure you book ahead.
Virgin Atlantic operates direct flights to Dubai from London Heathrow.
Have you explored the Palm Jumeirah? What did you think? Let us know in the comments section below.

This book spoke to me on many levels. Mostly, as a poet. It has been awhile since I've done so, but I used to write a good deal of poetry. Xiomara's story took me back to the summer between high school and college, when I finally felt confident enough to actually share my words for the first time. It was slam poetry, but I did read a poem aloud. So as I was reading about The Poet X, the Poet Flo was relating.
I love poetry because of the beauty in the assembly of words. With a poem, you can have no idle ones -- every word counts. And when you read them aloud, how they come together, the rhythm they make, counts too. This is an entire book of verse and I was here for it for 100%.
Especially the audiobook! The audiobook is read by Elizabeth Avecedo, so I really felt like I was hearing things the way she heard them when she first wrote them down. Want to see what I mean? Elizabeth Acevedo came to my favorite local bookstore Books & Books and I snagged this video of her reading from The Poet X. Enjoy!

When Bella Swan moves to the rainy town of Forks, Washington, she expects her new life to be as dull and dreary as the weather. But when she arrives at her new school, she spots the Cullen family—five mysterious teenagers who are ghostly pale, yet irresistibly beautiful. Bella becomes fascinated with the Cullen's, particularly the youngest, Edward.
Bella quickly discovers why the Cullen's look so different, and why they separate themselves from the rest of the town—they're vampires. But they're not the typical bloodsucking creatures of the night who fear garlic like the ones in horror movies. The Cullen's feast on animal blood instead of humans, and to them, garlic is simply a [kwlink 7000]smelly seasoning.
The Cullen's aren't related by blood, but they've lived together as a family for over one hundred years. They avoid humans to protect their secret from the people of Forks…until Edward meets Bella, that is.
Edward is captivated by Bella—by the smell of her blood, and how she's the only person whose thoughts he can't hear. Their friendship quickly grows into a love so strong that they feel empty in every moment they spend apart. But their relationship is dangerous. It puts the town, the Cullen family and, most of all, Bella at risk.
Love has no boundaries. Love conquers all. The forbidden love between Edward and Bella makes Twilight one of the most addictive teen novels of all time. Even if you don't like stories about vampires, you'll love this book. It's dangerous, emotional and extremely well written. So read the novel, and then check out the Twilight movie starring Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson.
