Shaynecharm coop looking for new members
Hello all Township Addicts,
Township Traders are looking to recruit a few eager and active players. I started playing TS over 3 years ago as an attempt to help my insomnia, got hooked and the rest is history. Our co op has 16 members but we don't all race every week as we understand the stresses and demands of Real Life but if you are not racing, there is an expectation that you try to help as often as you can.
We have very few rules but our most important one is to read the chat and if you are actively playing in a regatta then keep us posted. We have a lot of laughs and have players from Level 60 to 109. I also prefer to keep drama to a minimum (and there have been a few, lol) and we negotiate as a group if there is an issue. We are proud to be Gold Sail winners, first time out, and are currently going up and down in Gold League, but usually place in the top 3 for each regatta.
We do NOT insist on a perfect 2160 for Regatta racing but expect racers to take 130+ tasks and to aim for all 15 tasks, with the option of buying the 16th if the race is nail bitingly close (and it has been!) . Above all we try to remember this is a Game.....! If you like the sound of us, we are a Green Carrot emblem and we have players from the UK, US, Canada and Australia. There is a great spirit of generosity in our Co op, which I value highly. If you think you like the sound of our group, request by Monday if you want to take part in the next regatta.
Township Traders Co op Leader
We are a fairly new co-op looking for members willing to help each other "grow" and expand. Our co-op name is SKUNKED and our shield is brown with a brown cow. My town is LAST CHANCE. We try to do tasks that are 130 or above. We sometimes do tasks that are in the 120's, but we strive to achieve, so we dump the lower tasks. Communication is the key. We let each other know what tasks we enjoy more and which ones we don't. We are now in the silver league and at the top of the most recent regatta. we would appreciate players that are serious about doing the regatta, but still like to have fun, after all, it is only a game. Hope to see you soon! ��

L&P Star 2
Our Co-op is " Star town-owners "
We're a friendly coop with 20+ people from all corners of the world. The main language is English but we've a few people who don't speak so much English. We've also some that don't speak at all in any language but just play and enjoy LOL
We don't have much in the way of criteria. Mainly enjoy yourself and be cooperative - which is after all what coops are all about
Level is currently set at level 40 upwards though we change it sometimes
Ages range from 7 to 60++ (to be polite at the upper end without asking)
We do ask that people either enter the regatta and do at least 4 tasks or set regatta to "non-racing".
Joining the coop and just being generally helpful and contributing while set to "non-racing" on regatta is fine We know people want a break sometimes and some people aren't interested in the regatta.
We tend to "kick out" people who set themselves to racing and don't try or people who aren't active or have zero or very few "helps".
Enter the regatta and don't try + zero helps almost guarantees you to get a "goodbye and best wishes" leaving message LOL Otherwwise we wouldn't have a vacancy for you
We don't like to kick out people, but have found it the best way to be fair to everyone, as people entering the regatta and doing nothing or doing very little just make it less fun for everyone.
We enjoy winning and have made it to the golden league. But having fun is probably more important

Join the Swift Sails Crew Co-Op today! ACTIVE! FUN! HELPFUL!
Swift Sails Crew Co-Op
Android | Find Us By Searching: Swift Sails Crew | English Speaking | Req. Level: 35 | 9/30 Members
We are a group of friendly and helpful players who are a wee-bit competitive and who love Townville!
Our basic concept is that we try to accomplish as many tasks as possible for the regatta and help as many co-op members as possible. We know not everyone can be fully active all the time, but most of our members play the game daily. We're also a fairly talkative group and would like joiners to be too. We don't have rules on inactivity as of yet as this hasn't been a problem... but general consensus is that you have to accomplish a few tasks for the regatta and help a few people each week. Not talking in the chat to explain absences and not helping or accomplishing tasks will get you bumped from the co-op. Last regatta, all of our members finished all of their tasks and even one paid to do an extra one!
As of 12/15/16 our lowest level co-op member is 49 & our highest is 68!
We have two co-leaders, myself (Hartland/Cambria in the game) and Sallytown
As of 12/14/16 we received 1st Place in the Wood League & are 1st place in the Copper League

Bay Dogs - driving forces and cooperation
What is Fjärdhundraland?
Fjärdhundraland is a rural destination in the area Håbo-Enköping-Västerås-Sala-Uppsala which is run by Fjärdhundraland ekonomisk förening.
Fjordshoundland originated in a Leader project 2009–2011 in Fjärdhundrabygden. When it started, it was based on a zero position - very few companies worked with visitors. But it quickly turned out that there was a lot of interest and that many were in the starting blocks. The project led to greatly increased activity, and ended with the formation of the association, under the name Fjärdhundraland, which was taken from it ancient people of the same name.
Since then, the association has grown, from 20 to over 100 members and from only Fjärdhundrabygden to Enköping, Västerås, Sala, Heby, Upplands-Bro, Strängnäs, Sigtuna and Uppsala.
In 2019, the work was crowned with the prestigious The Grand Tourism Prize of SEK 100,000.
From the beginning, the association has attracted people who want to cooperate. It quickly becomes clear to those who agree that collaboration provides more visitors and that the members are not each other's competitors. The bottom-up perspective, which is included from the Leader method, means that the activity is based on the members' driving forces. It makes it easier to create engagement.
"We see differences as a strength," says chairman Mats Thorburn. It is always convenient to be with your friends - but if you instead build networks with people who are different, it becomes more sustainable. We complement each other.
The events are the backbone
The events are the backbone of the external business. The association organizes events such as Rebus round, Flea round and Food & people, which attracts a lot of people to the first visit. Then visitors come back and find new places with the help of the web, fjardhundraland.se.
Meeting places create collaborations
Internally, the association works with regular company visits and meetings, as well as with projects. In 2020, a lot has been about marketing the area and the members, when the interest from visitors has been great but the opportunity to meet internally is limited.

LAWRENCE — In April 2010, a catastrophic explosion sank the Deepwater Horizon oil rig, operated for the BP company some 50 miles off the Louisiana coast in the Gulf of Mexico. Eleven rig workers lost their lives, and oil gushed freely into Gulf waters for the next 87 days — some 210 million gallons of oil in total. The spill was the worst in U.S. history, and many viewed the government reaction to be inadequate.
A researcher at the University of Kansas recently has investigated how past experiences with hurricanes may have impeded state and local responses to the Deepwater Horizon disaster.
Cheong first became interested oil spills by a major 2007 accident in South Korea, and she continued her research with help from a Faculty Early Career Development grant from the National Science Foundation in 2012. She has become a noted expert on spills, recently having edited an entire issue of the journal Ecology and Society dedicated to the subject.
In the case of the Deepwater Horizon spill, Cheong found that previous experience with frequent hurricanes in Louisiana altered the response of government and the expectations of citizens.
In particular, Cheong found that government agencies at all levels were hampered by the shift in regulations from the Stafford Act — which effectively empowered local authorities in the response to hurricanes — to the Oil Pollution Act of 1990, which was more of a "top-down" approach. The result was "a heightened sense of uncertainty," according to the researcher.

Greg transforms a 1980s oven… into a 1950s oven: Mad skills required!
This project requires expert skills, you know what I always say: Get thee to a properly licensed professional. Surely Greg — of the fabulous red farm house kitchen — has those skills because holey moley, look at what he did: He started with his existing, 1980s built-in oven… jury-rigged a vintage Tappan Deluxe stove panel to the front, adding working knob controls, too — this panel ain't just for show… then painted the whole think auto body safety red and added chrome auto body trim. Mad skillz indeed! Read on for his verbatim description of his project.
We missed out on an antique wall oven on Ebay so converted our mid-1980's Tappan wall oven to vintage style.
I bought a early 50's Tappan Deluxe "stove topper" off Ebay for $30.00. I carefully cut it down, notched the backing plate on the existing stove to mount.
Had to rewire existing knobs to fit properly. Sanded the front glass and painted safety red. Used chrome automotive wheel well trim. Used an early 1950's Tappan stove top and modified it to fit the stove. Had to do some rewiring, scuffed the glass, painted it red. Used auto wheel well chrome for sparkle.
This one really blows my mind. If you can take the time to learn old fashioned skills — woodworking, metal working, professional spray painting — for sure you could save lots of money updating (err: back-dating) existing or salvaged appliances, cabinets, furniture, you name it, as part of your home renovation projects. Many of our relatives in the not-too-distant past had these mad skills — if they can do it, so can we!
Wow. You really brought that oven to life. I like it.
Fabulous job! You have mad skills, Sir! There's far too little of this kind of talent around these days, retro skills if you will.
And Pam you taught me a new expression on top of all the many household and decorating lessons. Here I am pushing my 'wisdom' years….ahem….and I've only ever heard Jerry-rigged so jury-rigged sent me to goggle in a flash.
I'd love to know more specifics about the step you listed as "painted it red." Obviously given that high heat is involved, you didn't just spray it with Rustoleum — would love to know what kind of paint you used and the step-by-step of how it actually went down!
I actually did use regular Rustoleum paint! I puzzled a bit over the same question, but the door is so well insulated that it only gets warm–rarely hot to the touch. I just taped it off, scuffed the glass with a maroon Scotch pad, primed and painted.
it's over a year later & it still looks great!
Heat your oven up and see how warm/hot the door gets..then make a decision.

11am to 4pm Daily
The Sullivan Renaissance
Jim Sullivan's passion for wine began in the 1950s. A simple grape arbor given as a wedding gift for the backyard of Jim and his new wife, Johanna, would eventually ignite a way of life.
As a graphic artist, known for his work with 60s icons such as The Monkees, and Dick Clark Productions, Jim's work was rooted in the artistic and creative innovators of his generation. His connection to musicians, artists and architects, writers and chefs would motivate not only his design work, but also his success in Napa.
Thanks to the inspiration of the wedding gift, Jim channeled his creative vision towards wine. He began to make wine at home, becoming part of a building wave of interest in quality wines in the United States. As Jim's winemaking skills grew, so did his passion for the vine.
Predicting a California wine boom, the Sullivans began the search for land in the sleepy farming community, Napa Valley. With the early 1970s, the Sullivans discovered the site that would become their family home and vineyards growing Cabernet Sauvignon.
By the 1980s, Jim's vision would be confirmed. Rutherford would be recognized as one of the finest places to grow Cabernet in the world, the Sullivans with vineyards in the heart of it.
Bringing their artistic vision to Rutherford, the Sullivans would collaborate with a lead architect, world-class chefs, artists, and musicians from all over the world. Sullivan Vineyards & Winery would become not only the fulfillment of Jim's passion for wine, as well as their family home, but also a center of hospitality for creative visionaries from all over the world.
Today, Sullivan Vineyards & Winery remains one of the few family owned estates in Napa Valley.
Inheriting their parents' vision, Sean, Ross, and Kelleen have combined the beauty of their unique family estate with the integrity of world-class winegrowing and professional management. The combination speaks to today's Sullivan renaissance.

How does one achieve a deep and fulfilling bond with a pony? What are the necessary ingredients? I don't consider these questions particularly easy to answer. After having more than two dozen ponies pass through my life, though, I have formed some opinions.
Someone suggested that having a pony from a foal was the key. I understand this thinking; as a breeder, there are indeed foals who capture more of my heart than ponies who've been with me for many years. On the other hand, though, I know that there are some foals that I never bond with at all, and I'm thrilled when I find them a home where they can be loved and appreciated in a way I never could provide.
I also know that I am not alone in finding a pony-of-a-lifetime in a mature animal. One of my strongest bonds is with a pony who was seven years old when she entered my life. When I think about my bond with her and about the other ponies with whom I have bonded most strongly, there is a common ingredient that has nothing to do with age at time of meeting. It has to do with my temperament and theirs.
There are a number of equestrians these days who have defined systems for categorizing equine temperaments. The one that makes the most sense to me so far has just four categories. Perhaps it makes sense because the first time I was introduced to the idea of categorizing temperaments was in a system that also had four quadrants. It was when I worked in the high tech industry, at a time when it was fashionable to train people about how to work well with other people. When one of my co-workers returned from a class, he told me which category I fit in. I found the information helpful, as was the advice he offered about working better with our teammates.
Nonetheless, there can be helpful information in systems of equine categorization. The one that I've found most helpful has two axes. One axis has thinkers at one end and feelers at the other. The other axis has busy feet at one end and quiet feet at the other (these are my simplifications). The two axes make four quadrants. I tend toward the thinking and quiet feet part of the chart. When I look at the ponies with whom I have the strongest bonds, they tend toward that quadrant, too. So, in my current position in my equine journey, I have the opinion that the strongest bonds are possible when my innate temperament and my pony's are similar.
That, however, is not the full story. My friend and colleague Doc Hammill has said that the strongest bonds he sees are those where a person has a single equine (or maybe two) and they can give lots of time and attention to developing that one relationship. Perhaps I am biased, but I think this is particularly true with ponies. Many of my ponies ask for more time than I am able to give them, and when I do give them more time, they give more back to the relationship. The first pony that I bonded strongly to was my only equine for over a year, and I invented ways to involve her in as many of my activities as I could. It's really no wonder, then, that I can do just about anything with her and I hold her up as the example to which I want all my other ponies to aspire. Of course they're just waiting for me to show up!
My current opinion that what makes for a deep and satisfying bond is a similarity in temperament may be incomplete in another way. As a breeder, I have a responsibility to train the equines I bring into the world until they go on to their next home. There is no question that it's easiest for me to train ponies that are in my quadrant, but that doesn't mean I'm off the hook with the others. I have to have skills that enable me to train equines in other quadrants even if that's not natural for me. I suspect it's possible that a deep and satisfying bond could be established with a pony of a different quadrant for whom I learned the necessary skills. I will be finding that out, as I have retained a filly that I've bred who's a thinker like me but has busy feet.
Of course the key to matching our temperament to a pony's is to be able to honestly assess our own temperament. It's harder than it sounds. Back when I was in high tech, the work environment valued getting things done, so being in the 'get things done' quadrant seemed important to catching management's attention for raises, promotions, and other perks. My co-worker, however, identified me in a different quadrant, though he acknowledged that my back up mode was to get things done. I think it was easier to hear that information from him than to have to evaluate myself. Today, being busy seems to be high on the hit parade, and if we're not out there on social media, we're considered odd. Yet for many of us, quiet time alone for thinking is what suits us best. Admitting it can be challenging.
If we are honest with ourselves about who we are, then we may have a better chance at choosing an equine partner with which we can have a deep and fulfilling bond. As a breeder, my best buyers are those who see a picture of a pony and are immediately captivated, not because my pictures are artful but because I try to capture a pony's essence and communicate it in a photograph. I know how rewarding a deep and fulfilling bond is, and if I can help another person achieve one, that's pretty rewarding, too!

Several years ago I met Janice Willett at a craft fair at a very challenging time in my life. Janice smiled at me from across the room and from that smile she somehow beckoned me to come over to talk. Her words were exactly what I needed to hear that day. How did she know exactly what to say to me?
There was 'something' about Janice which immediately made me so feel so relaxed. And, I am sure you all know that feeling when you meet someone and you feel as if you have known them forever. Well, this is Janice and we became immediate friends and have been friends every since.
I am putting it out there that I do feel it is a good thing to have faith in someone/something…a higher being if you may…God. I also believe that people are put there for you at the right time and for a reason. It's no secret that I'm a Catholic School girl, and proud of it I might add, but I do completely acknowledge and respect many religions and beliefs.
The messages from this book are meant to 'answer' our questions or assist with possible issues in our lives. Maybe we are 'off the path', maybe we have a personal pain in our lives which we cannot figure out how to heal, maybe we need guidance, maybe we just need a hand in ours or a whisper in our ear to tell us everything will be all right. Maybe me, just needs to be a 'better me".
Personally, Janice holds many roles to me. She is sometimes my 'rock' (as she always knows what to say and when), my 'therapist' ("When this whole world starts getting me down" quoting the Band, The Drifters) and my 'mentor' (teaching me 'how' to listen to my messages), but most importantly, she is my friend.
And myself, as many, believe she has a direct "communication link" with a divine being. This book "Affairs of the Heart", is this 'direct link'. She has been labeled an "intercessor", a person who intercedes, by clergy. Janice feels very blessed to communicate with God relaying His Divine messages to the troubled, sick and dying…never on demand, but only as they are presented in God's time. Now, a little bit about Janice and how this book came to be.
where she realized that her life had to change. So, Janice left her 'unfulfilled' life as it was and lived off her savings following the path which led to writing this book.
"Affairs of the Heart" is about "courage to change…personal transformation…that overflows at home, work and in friendships through developing a better relationship with God." With this book, whether you are living a joy-filled life or feeling despair of any type, "Affairs of the Heart" will bring understanding through this easy to read, relatable story with 72 wonderful messages, twelve which appear in the "Affairs of the Heart" companion wall calendar.
Biz Smart Media congratulates J.I. Willett, Amazon International #1 Best-Selling author of the God-inspired book, Affairs of the Heart – God's Messages to the World, which reached #1 on the Amazon U.S.Best Seller Lists in the category of Religion and Spirituality on Kindle and Amazon Books on April 28, 2015.
In addition, the book ranked internationally, coming in at #1 for the Kindle and the Amazon Book divisions in Canada and Italy and #1 in Australia for the Kindle. It also ranked #2 in Kindle and #9 for Amazon Books in Germany, as well as #3 in the UK for Kindle and Amazon Books.
"God's Messages to the World" is the wake-up call encouraging every day people to follow their dreams and change the world one person at a time. This clergy, approved book transforms lives and relationships through the author's inspirational story of her journey into God's arms, while receiving the 72 messages which He asks her to reveal to the world.
Reach out for a copy of this book and keep it close at hand. It is never far from me, and when I need 'something', I flip open a page, and well, I get my heavenly message loud and clear.
The hardcover, eBook and audiobook are available at YourGodSpeaks.com.
The eBook is also available at GooglePlay, iBook and iTunes.

The Michigan Health Improvement Alliance, Inc. has recognized MidMichigan Health with a gold Community Health Excellence Award.

Grappling to overcome traffic chaos in Himachal Pradesh, the state government on Monday mooted a proposal to set up more aerial ropeways to connect the vantage points and tourist towns across the state.
Chief minister Virbhadra Singh on Monday announced to set up a ropeway linking Interstate Bus Terminus (ISBT) at Tutikandi to Mall Lift and from Lift to near Rani Jhansi Park.
Presiding over a meeting of the infrastructure development board, he said the aerial ropeway would be set up on public- private partnership (PPP).
The total length of this ropeway would be 3 km and it would be supported on 18 pillars and the boarding stations would be constructed at Tutikandi and Lift with a parking facility of 500 vehicles each.
He said the carrying capacity of this ropeway would be around 1,500 to 2,000 persons each way.
The total project cost is estimated at Rs 250 crore and the total travel time would be 10 minutes each way. The terminals at Tutikandi and Lift would have a restaurant, waiting hall and other amenities such as washrooms and drinking water.
The chief minister said the ropeway would be a safe and modern mode of transportation which besides saving travel time would help in reducing the pollution level of the city. He said it could be integrated with the existing public transportation system and could save the city of traffic jams. He said it would also boost tourism in Shimla as tourists could enjoy the ropeway right from Tutikandi to the Mall and further Jakhu Mandir as its terminals were close to the Jakhu ropeway near to Jodha Niwas.
Singh also gave its nod to construct another Himani Chamunda ropeway in Kangra district. He said this ropeway would help the pilgrims to visit famous holy place - Himani Chamunda -which is not connected with road.
He said this ropeway would be constructed at a cost of Rs 200 crore and it would be of 6-km length with a carrying capacity of 1,000-1,200 persons each way. He said it would start from near Chamunda Temple and there would be a mid station and the upper station would be at the hill top Himani Chamunda Temple. He said the total one side travel time would be around 20 minutes.
The chief minister said the waiting hall and parking facilities for about 500 vehicles besides other amenities would be provided at the lower terminal, while restaurant, children's play area and cottages for staying facilities would be provided at the mid-terminal and an open-air restaurant would be constructed at the upper terminal apart from other amenities.
During the meeting, a presentation on "Material Ropeway Project" from Kotgarh, Baggi, Kotkhai, Theog, Gumma, Yashwant Nagar and Sinj till Parwanoo was also given by Usha Breco Limited appointed by HP Infrastructure Development Board for undertaking a feasibility study to transport the agriculture and horticulture produce from Shimla district to Parwanoo as a pilot project. The project would cost Rs 250 to Rs 300 crore, which would be developed under the private sector under the PPP mode.

Frontlist Education | Students To Get Chance To Take Exams Twice A Year Under NEP: Nishank
New Delhi: The Modi government came out with the New Education Policy 2020, replacing a 34-year-old national policy on education. Under the new policy, students will get a chance to take the board examination twice. What will be the big changes in higher education, what will be the type of board examinations, what will be the nature of primary classes, what will be the changes in engineering and medicine streams — to get the answer we spoke to Union Education Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank. Q: What will be the nature of the 10th and 12th standard board examinations or will there be any changes in them? A: The new policy will make the 10th or 12th board exams easier. The emphasis will be on holistic learning of students rather than on rote learning or learning from coaching classes. All students will be allowed to take the board examination twice during any school year to eliminate the higher risk aspect of final examinations. A main examination and an improvement will be allowed if necessary. Q: What will be the impact of the new education policy on higher education like medical and engineering? A: Medical education needs to be revisited. People use pluralistic alternatives in healthcare. Our health education system needs to be integrated, Which means that all students of allopathic medical education should have a basic understanding of Ayurveda, Yoga and Naturopathy, Unani and Homeopathy. The same will apply in the case of all other medical students. Engineering stream will also be introduced within multi-disciplinary educational institutions and programmes with renewed focus on opportunities to engage deeply with other disciplines. Q: What has the new education policy brought for the students at the primary level? A: In the new education policy, students will be benefited with flexible, multifaceted, multi-level, sports based, activity based and innovation based education system from the initial stage itself. The overall objective of this policy is to achieve optimum results in the physical, cognitive, social, moral and cultural development of children. The medium of instruction will be the mother tongue of the children. Q: What will be the fundamental changes in the process of learning and teaching in the new education policy? A: The new education policy emphasizes on reduction of school curriculum burden, increased flexibility, learning in a creative way rather than rote learning. Along with this, school text books will also be changed. Wherever possible, teachers will also have a number of options from text books. They will now have several sets of such textbooks Which will include the required national and local content. The teachers will be able to teach in a way that suits their own style of teaching keeping in mind the needs of students. Q: What will be the process of admission in higher educational institutions — graduation, post graduation. How can more and more students be imparted higher education? A: The principles will be the same for the university entrance exam. The National Testing Agency (NTA) will undertake the Higher Quality General Aptitude Test, as well as the examination of the specific general subject at least twice every year in science, humanities, language, arts and vocational subjects. The NTA will undertake the admission test for undergraduate and graduate admissions and fellowship in higher educational institutions. It will be left to the universities and colleges to decide whether to adopt the NTA entrance exam for admission in their institutes. Q: How will the new education policy be effective in the field of technical education? A: The impact of technology on all human enterprises is increasing the possibility of bridging the gap between technical education and other disciplines. Thus technical education will also be introduced within multi-disciplinary educational institutions and programmes and will focus on renewed linking opportunities with other disciplines. Degree and diploma programmes in technical education are included. For example, engineering, technology management, architecture, pharmacy, catering etc which are important for the overall development of India. Q: What kind of changes will be made for teachers in the new education policy? A: Along with ensuring the important role teachers will play in the new education policy, the quality of teachers' education, recruitment, posting, service conditions and their rights have been assessed. The change has been ensured by extending the B.Ed programme along with the teacher eligibility test. The policy aims to increase the capacities of teachers to the maximum level. Teachers will be given more freedom to select courses. Teachers will have to do the work from the point of view of all-round development of students keeping in mind the social and emotional aspects. Teachers will be honored for positive results. Under the new policy, teachers will get opportunities for their sustainable professional development. Q: You said that the new education policy will be based on knowledge, culture, and Indian ethos. What provisions have you made in it for that? A: This policy is based on the principle that education should not only develop basic abilities like literacy and numeracy as well as higher level of logical and problem solving cognitive abilities, but also the creation of moral, social, emotional character of students. Knowledge, wisdom, the search for truth are always considered to be the highest human goals in Indian thought tradition and philosophy. The goal of education in ancient India has been considered as complete enlightenment and liberation of human soul. Indian culture and philosophy have a major influence in the world. This rich heritage of global importance not only needs to be preserved for the coming generations, but research work should also be done on it. It needs to be further enriched. Q: What kind of changes do you see in colleges and universities after the new education policy is implemented? A: The nature of universities will change after the new education policy comes into force. If we define the university, there will be many types of institutions, which will give equal importance to teaching and research. A primarily autonomous degree granting college would refer to a large multi-disciplinary institution of higher education. At the same time, a phased system will be implemented to give autonomy to colleges. Over time, gradually all the colleges will either become degree-granting autonomous institutions or develop as part of a university. Q: Parents are still apprehensive about the opening of the schools. What are the plans for opening the schools, especially for the primary level students after the lockdown? A: Under the guidelines of Unlock 3, the Ministry of Home Affairs has directed the schools, colleges and all coaching institutes to remain closed till August 31. According to the guidelines of the Home Ministry, we will take a further decision later.

Whenever the issue of sharing data securely between partners or donors comes up, everyone always wants to talk about the don'ts.
Don't use consumer file sharing tools.
The list goes on, and it repeats messages that we've all heard, and probably ignored, before.
Oftentimes, pressure from superiors and the deadlines they impose can cause people to skip good data sharing practices in the interest of time, or they literally aren't aware of them at all; however, the extra time it may take to share your information securely can and will ensure the safety of your constituents and their data.
With data coming from partners, different technology platforms, donors, team members, and other stakeholders, there is an absolute need to share amongst each other. After all, data-driven decision making is essential if your organization wants to efficiently and effectively create lasting and sustainable change.
Every international development organization nowadays stresses the importance of data for development, as it is vital for the design of effective projects, programs, and policies.
With the increasing use of technology in development projects and programs, there is an even greater need for data security and safe file sharing practices. The bottom line is that using more technology results in the collection of more data, which must be protected.
When there is a data security incident, there will be fallout with donors, governments, partners, and beneficiaries that could damage your organization's reputation irreparably; Or, put the data subjects e.g. your constituents, constituents in harm's way.
Data breach prevention should be on the mind of everyone within an organization. With so many security protocols in place, it's rare that you can blame a data security breach on one person or group. However, a few bad decisions made by one or two people can easily snowball into a devastating breach; such as, improper data sharing techniques being used by individuals within that organization.
What may just be an excel attachment to us could easily endanger the lives of the people we are trying to serve. This can be done by attaching the wrong file to an email, sharing with or emailing the wrong person, or using an insecure data sharing practice.
For instance, if your survey data becomes compromised by an outside party, your targeted data subjects could be in danger after they've been identified (by knowing their PII or Personal Identifiable Information). We are providing people with a name, address, and GPS coordinates to find anyone on our list.
Our constituents did not sign up for someone to show up at their door because of their ethnicity or other parameters. They signed up because we promised to help them.
1. Use enterprise standard data visualization software.
Manage user access and security from one central place.
Control access by user with role-specific insights and row-level security.
Use software that safeguards your data in a way that meets stringent industry compliance standards and certifications.
CRS recommends its staff use OneDrive for Business for multiple reasons.
Encryption: OneDrive places each individual file in its own lockbox, with its own key, which makes it hard for a potential attacker to unlock all of your data at once. Other data storage applications use one key for all the data in one account, so a hacker can gain access to all files at once.
Storage: OneDrive allows you to store up to 1 TB of data or unlimited storage according to your subscription plan – compared to a 1 GB limit with other data storage applications.
In addition to security, there are many technical considerations behind our selection of OneDrive for Business, e.g. its content management features, versioning, data loss protection (very efficient for enforcing privacy rules on content), collaboration capabilities, integration with many platforms: e.g. SharePoint and Salesforce – the two major platforms used heavily at CRS.
Other similar software includes Box for Enterprise, which gives you a single place to manage, secure, share and govern all the content for your internal and external collaboration processes.
This type of software (for example Microsoft Teams or Slack) can help your team stay organized, have conversations, and share files securely inside and out of your organization.
However, please be warned, Slack is banning some users who have visited U.S. sanctioned countries while using its app. Do not use Facebook Messenger, regular Skype, or un-encrypted SMS for exchanging and sharing data.
If there is no other way for you or your partners/donors to share data other than email, then you should make sure that the files you send have been password encrypted.
BitLocker is a tool built into Windows that lets you encrypt an entire hard drive for enhanced security. Here is a video on how to encrypt an Excel file. Using PowerPoint or Word instead? Don't worry, you encrypt those types of files the exact same way as in the video.
For added security, choose a file sharing platform that allows you to apply information rights management and automatic expiry to each shared file. Information rights management allows you to restrict saving or printing of the file.
Applying expiry dates automatically revokes access to the file after a specified period. Here is a video on how to do this for OneDrive for Business.
What Are Other Data Sharing Best Practices?
Our 5 suggestions were born from a careful vetting process by CRS IT experts that weighed each option based on security, functionality, and cost. Also, these selections are based off their relevancy to the way CRS operates and how we do business.
Essentially, we use what works best for us. We are acutely aware of the broader ICT4D security vulnerabilities if strong protection systems are not fully adopted, regularly tested and updated.
Here are more resources on good data security practices.
How Can We Improve Responsible Data Sharing?
Data privacy has become a priority focus as CRS explores ways to increase the reliance of development and humanitarian programming with new, relevant and accessible technology. We want this post to be a good starting point to initiate a deeper discussion.
What are other data sharing best practices? Please share in the comments!
Remember, the time it takes to use data sharing best practices is nothing compared to potentially making a mistake and compromising the data of your organization, beneficiaries, or donors! Safeguarding this data is an essential aspect of protecting these individuals' lives, their physical and mental integrity, and their dignity.

Crucial Environmental Ltd. / News / Asbestos warning after Hotel chain fined
Asbestos warning after Hotel chain fined
Asbestos Warning
It doesn't seem to matter how big or small a company is, companies who fail to take adequate asbestos surveys prior to refurbishment works continue to make the news.
The latest is a large hotel chain.
The company in question failed to ensure a full asbestos assessment was carried out prior to a refurbishment of a wing of a hotel in Folkestone in 2010.
An asbestos surveyor was only called to site after work had commenced and asbestos had already been discovered in the eaves. Asbestos was also found on the second floor of the hotel, which was likely to have been linked to the removal of walls and ceilings.
It is unclear at this early stage whether any construction workers or guests were directly affected as symptoms of asbestos related diseases can take many years to develop.
An HSE inspector said:
"[the company] carried out refurbishment work without carrying out a full and proper asbestos survey before works got underway. The company's failure to deal with the asbestos could have resulted in up to 22 workers being exposed to asbestos from the outset of the project
"This situation was wholly avoidable and I hope today's prosecution also highlights the need to ensure that workers are given the appropriate training to ensure that asbestos is properly managed and dealt with."
This drives home the importance of hiring a qualified and competent asbestos surveyor before the beginning of any building or refurbishment works where there is the possibility of asbestos containing materials.
Call us now on 01903 297818 to book your pre-refurbishment asbestos survey or complete our enquiry form.

Double Fine raises $400,000 from the public for new point 'n' click adventure
This is one of the most heartwarming stories I've heard in awhile: Double Fine Productions, who has Lucasarts adventure game legends Tim Schafer and Ron Gilbert behind it, are planning to create a new point 'n' click adventure. As they describe in the video though, most publishers nowadays laugh at the prospect of resurrecting the point 'n' click adventure to the mainstream. However, Tim Schafer decided that all the adventure game fans out there should put their money where their mouth is. If they think there's so much interest, surely there'd be enough fans out there to fund their next game for a modest $400,000 (with $100,000 going towards a documentary).
Amazingly, in less than 24 hours they've got their $400,000! At the time of this article, it's now up to $534,698! More than half a million!
They're still accepting contributions any extra money will go towards a larger budget for voice-overs and music (hmmm perhaps they could even hire some Hollywood actors if enough gets contributed :P). Depending on the level of money you contribute, you receive more extra stuff. You can donate even $1 if you wish but you need to donate $15 at least if you want a copy of the game when it's released. Someone's already donated $10,000 and that gets you lunch with Tim Schafer and Ron Gilbert along with a whole bunch of other choice stuff. If you want to get into the credits you need to dish out $100.
I'll probably go for the $30 option as it's like a collector's edition of the game (comes with a digital soundtrack!). Word of warning though, you'll need to signup with Amazon.com as part of the process. Besides that, it's pretty simple!
If you want to contribute go here.

Lights-Out Loyer Leads Clarkston to Final
Posted Friday, March 23, 2018
EAST LANSING – Warm-ups don't count, but it seemed like Foster Loyer couldn't miss while getting ready for Friday's first Semifinal at the Breslin Center.
The last four seasons, that's been a good sign for Clarkston.
The Wolves' senior point guard went on to make 12 of 17 shots from the floor and score 42 points – becoming the fifth player ever to drop at least 40 in a boys basketball Semifinal – in leading reigning champ Clarkston back to the Class A Final with a 74-49 win over Warren DeLaSalle.
Loyer scored 17 of his team's 23 first-quarter points, on 6 for 10 shooting, as the Wolves quickly built a double-digit lead that never fell below nine points the rest of the game.
"When he gets going, there are not a lot of people who can stop him," Clarkston senior backcourt mate CJ Robinson said. "When he gets going like that, we try to key on getting him the ball. He knocks shots down for us, and it opens things up for others, and he does a good job of finding everybody."
Clarkston (25-1) will attempt to finish a repeat at 12:15 p.m. Saturday against Holland West Ottawa.
Loyer drained seven 3-pointers among his 12 field goals and all 11 of his free throw attempts – against a DeLaSalle defense focused on slowing down the recently-named Mr. Basketball Award winner and Michigan State recruit.
"I don't think in 31 years of being a varsity coach that anyone has remotely scored that many points," Pilots longtime leader Greg Esler said. "I think about when we were here in (20)07, Manny Harris had 13. But the thing about Loyer that's so good is he's so deceiving – he reminds you of Cassius Winston in the fact that he's not the most athletic guy, he might not be the fastest but all of a sudden he's shooting the 25-footer and getting to the rim and making everybody on his team better. So there's no question, he's a winner."
Those comparisons, of course, are high praise – Harris, who went on to star at Michigan, had 14 for Detroit Redford in a Semifinal win over the Pilots that season, and DeLaSalle saw its share as well of Detroit U-D Jesuit's Winston, who's currently running the point for MSU.
Longtime Clarkston coach Dan Fife extended the praise to include Robinson, who had nine points and five assists while sharing a game-high 31 minutes on the floor.
"When you've got two guards who can play like this, it makes it a lot easier to coach," said Fife, who's in his 36th season. "My first year coaching, we had a bunch of bigs, and our guards weren't near like this, we played Flint Central and we just got tattooed because we couldn't handle the pressure. These guys handle the pressure.
"The two of them feel comfortable, and it makes everybody else relax a little bit."
As a team, it was a smooth performance. The Wolves had only 10 turnovers to 11 assists and made 53 percent of their shots from the floor.
"I think as a point guard, for both of us, it's important that we're in control of the pace of the game, that we play how we want to play," Loyer said. "Just to come out and throw that first punch and get an early lead is very important for us."
Of course, Clarkston has more than great guards – senior forward Taylor Currie, headed to Wisconsin after graduation, chipped in 16 points and 12 rebounds and had the first basket of the game. As a team, the Wolves outrebounded the Pilots 36-19.
Senior forward Luke Pfromm led DeLaSalle (19-8) with 17 points, while senior forward Jordan Winowiecki had 12 and senior forward Kole Gjonaj had 10. Senior guard Justin Fisher had nine assists.

The fact that they promote 'no artificial additives, real fruit puree and NO added sugar because all sugar comes naturally from fruit' puts this at the top of my regular 'to buy list'.

James Joyce Tower and Museum – muzeum biograficzne w Dublinie (Irlandia), umiejscowione w dawnej wieży Martello, w której James Joyce spędził kilka dni w 1904 roku i w której rozgrywają się pierwsze sceny jego najsłynniejszej powieści Ulisses.

Wieża
Wieża Martello w Sandycove została zbudowana w latach 1804–1806, w pierwszej fazie wznoszenia fortyfikacji tego typu w Irlandii, jako jedna z 26 wież wokół Dublina. Była to wieża mniejszego typu, okrągła, o średnicy 11,6 m (38 stóp) i wysokości 7,3 m (24 stóp). Uzbrojona była w jedną armatę osiemnastofuntową i wyposażona w piec do podgrzewania kul armatnich. Podobnie jak inne tego typu budowle na południe od miasta, wzniesiona była z ciętego granitu, z magazynem w przyziemiu i dwoma piętrami mieszkalno-magazynowymi, z wejściem na poziomie pierwszego piętra, bronionym przez machikuły. Według raportu z 1861 wieża i przyległa do niej bateria miały pomieszczenia mieszkaniowe dla łącznie 36 żołnierzy.

W 1904 roku wieżę wydzierżawił Oliver St. John Gogarty za 12 funtów rocznie, planując ustanowić w niej kolonię pisarzy. Joyce zamieszkał w wieży 9 września tego roku, w zamian za mieszkanie zobowiązując się do wykonywania prac domowych. Po pięciu dniach wyprowadził się, gdy inny współlokator, obudzony przez koszmar, w którym ścigała go czarna pantera, wystrzelił na oślep z rewolweru. Gogarty uspokoił lokatora i zabrał mu broń, lecz gdy ten znów obudził się z krzykiem, sam wystrzelił, strącając na głowę Joyce'a półkę ze ściany. Ów szybko się wyniósł, nie pakując nawet swoich rzeczy; skarżył się potem, że cały incydent mógł być zaplanowany, żeby się go pozbyć, jako że trójka już wcześniej działała sobie na nerwy.

Wieża wpisana jest do irlandzkiego rejestru zabytków pod numerem DU023-01.

Muzeum
W wieży w Sandycove rozgrywają się początkowe sceny Ulissesa (mieszka w niej jeden z głównych bohaterów powieści, Stefan Dedalus).
Wieżę tę, w 1954 roku, kupił i odrestaurował dubliński architekt Michael Scott, który mieszkał w pobliżu. Wsparcia finansowego udzielił John Huston, który oparł swój film na opowiadaniu Joyce'a. 16 czerwca 1962 roku otwarto w niej muzeum poświęcone pisarzowi. Muzeum mieściło niewielką kolekcję pamiątek po pisarzu rozmieszczonych w odnowionym pomieszczeniu, w którym niegdyś spał Joyce. Kolekcja muzealna wzbogaciła się później dzięki darom m.in. Samuela Becketta. W 1965 stowarzyszenie, które prowadziło muzeum, nie było w stanie podołać obciążeniom finansowym i muzeum odkupiła Irish Tourist Board, która przekazała je w zarządzanie Eastern Regional Tourist Organization. 150-letnia wieża była jednak coraz bardziej zawilgocona, co zagrażało zbiorom; po remoncie muzeum zostało ponownie otwarte w 1972 roku. Kolejny, bardziej całościowy remont miał miejsce w 1978 roku, kiedy też zbudowano dodatkową salę wystawową, gdzie (oraz w dawnym magazynie na parterze) umieszczono większość ekspozycji, mieszkalny pokój na piętrze przeznaczając na spotkania i wykłady. Rosnąca popularność muzeum i wielkość zbiorów rodziła problemy, więc w 1991, dzięki funduszom uzyskanym z Unii Europejskiej, przeprowadzono kolejny remont, zmieniając równocześnie charakter placówki na ściśle biograficzny. Eksponaty niezwiązane bezpośrednio z życiem pisarza zostały wypożyczone nowemu Dublin Writers Museum, a pozostałe zorganizowane w chronologicznym porządku. Pokój na piętrze przywrócono do stanu, w jakim znajdował się za czasów Joyce'a.

I often wonder how we all managed before computers were a common place in the home. I just don't have the time to be always running to the post box to send letters. E-mail is very (2) important when you have a tough schedule. Most of my (3) relaxationtime is spent at the computer as by the time I finish doing homework I am too tired and it is often too late to go out. It is a (4) wonderful reference aid and (5) educational tool. If all else fails, you can play cards on it, although my own (6) preference is for action games!


Content: There's a slight bit of crushing going on, so it may turn off those who aren't interested in that sort of thing. Otherwise, hand it to anyone who's interested in a quieter fantasy. It's in the middle grade (grades 3-5) section of the bookstore.
Nolie's parents have recently gotten divorced, and her father's been living in northern Scotland, a scientist investigating the weird fog that hangs off the coast of the town of Journey's End. Nolie's headed to spend the summer with her dad, hoping for a fun Scottish adventure.
Once installed in Journey's End, she meets Bel, the daughter of a local store owner, someone who cashes in on the tourists who come to experience the fog, which they call the Boundary, and the magical/mystical story behind it. And then when Nolie and Bel discover that a boy who's been dead for nearly 100 years is wandering on the beach, things get really interesting for them.
I feel like this one is almost "fantasy light". There's no magic, no wizards, no faeries (which I thought there would be when it started). There are some references to ghosts (and one does show up) and there is a curse and a couple of people who are very, very old, but that's the extent of the fantasy here. It's fantasy for those who like theirs with a dose of realism, or for those who like their books quiet. That's not to say it's a bad book; Hawkins has woven a splendid yarn, with conflict and tension, humor and friendship, one that kept me turning pages wondering what was going to happen next.
It's quite a lovely book, one that I hope younger readers will enjoy as much as I did.


Our DriveHydrated gift bundle is a great option if you're looking for a birthday or Christmas present idea. You love your own bottle, so why not get your friends and family their own insulated water bottle too! And by also including the BottlePro cup holder adapter, they'll be able to take their new water bottle with them on the road!

El Museu Valencià d'Etnologia és un museu ubicat al Centre Cultural de la Beneficència de la ciutat de València. Fou creat el 1982 i obrí les seues portes al públic el 1983. Els seus objectius són la investigació i difusió en el camp de l'etnologia i l'antropologia, posant a l'abast del públic un espai de coneixement i reflexió sobre la diversitat cultural que caracteritza els humans en dos àmbits complementaris:

 El pròpiament valencià, centrant-se en les pautes culturals de la societat tradicional valenciana i el seu procés de trànsit cap a la societat industrialitzada, sense deixar de banda les noves formes culturals de la contemporaneïtat.
 L'àmbit general de les cultures, des de les mediterrànies, més pròximes a nosaltres i que ens emmarquen directament, fins a les pròpies d'àmbits geogràfics més llunyans.

El centre està administrat per la Diputació de València. En 2007 comptava amb 15.000 peces a la seua col·lecció, sent el museu de referència pel que fa a la cultura tradicional al País Valencià.

Història

El museu va ser creat per Joan Francesc Mira en 1982, en un context de recuperació de la identitat valenciana propi de la transició i que és comú a molts altres museus de l'estat espanyol. Este projecte concretà un projecte que històricament havia estat proposat però mai realitzat de disposar d'un museu que estudiara, recopilara i difonguera la cultura tradicional valenciana.

L'apertura del museu va ser efectiva en 1983, amb un personal d'entre tres i quatre persones. El museu va situar-se al Centre de la Beneficència on també s'havia ubicat el Servei d'Investigació Prehistòrica de la Diputació de València Entre els objectius hi havia el de la recuperació i posada en valor de les col·leccions prèvies, donada la nul·la tradició de col·leccions etnològiques existent. En pocs anys es va aconseguir una important col·lecció sobre tecnologia agrària, i posteriorment amplià el seu camp temàtic amb materials urbans, i a partir del , amb indumentària tradicional.

Des de gener de 2017 és el museu coordinador de la Xarxa de Museus etnològics locals, creada per la Diputació de València per a donar lloc a una estructura cultural de cooperació, assessorament i formació, amb l'objectiu de trencar l'aïllament que pateixen els museus locals, creant-se un espai de comunicació i cooperació compartit.

Edifici
El Museu Valencià d'Etnologia està ubicat dintre del actual Centre Cultural la Beneficència, situat a l'antiga casa de la Beneficència de la ciutat de València. El seu origen és un antic hospici del , i en la dècada de 1990 va ser restaurat i preparat com a centre cultural i sala d'exposicions, on s'hi troben diferents institucions de l'àrea de cultura de la Diputació de València, de qui depén. Al seu interior es troben el Museu Valencià d'Etnologia i el Museu de Prehistòria de València.

Exposicions

Pel que fa a les sales permanents, al museu hi ha hagut diversos projectes d'exposicions permanents, la primera data de l'apertura del museu en 1983, i tenia per objectiu dignificar les col·leccions recopilades fins a eixe moment i mostrar les potencialitats de l'estudi de l'etnologia valenciana, sense entrar a fer un recorregut exhaustiu per la societat tradicional valenciana. En 1986 l'exposició permanent primigènia fou substituïda per un monogràfic sobre el cicle del cereal anomenat Del gra al pa, concebuda com a temporal però que estigué oberta al públic fins a 1993. No seria fins a 1995 que es presenta una exposició concebuda com a permanent. En ella, es mostraven tres àmbits de la vida: el domèstic, l'obtenció de primeres matèries i les tècniques de fabricació. En 1997 es desmunta l'exposició i comença un període amb un gran nombre d'exposicions temporals, impulsant-se 64 entre 1997 i 2002. A partir de 2003 es comença a treballar en un nou projecte d'exposició permanent que mostre el País Valencià des de tres òptiques diferents: les ciutats, les hortes i marjals i la muntanya i el secà. En 2003 es produeix la primera part del projecte, dedicada a les ciutats, desenvolupant progressivament els tres àmbits de l'exposició permanent, que culminaria en 2011. A partir d'aquell moment s'han presentat exposicions temporals dedicades al món de la pilota valenciana, les bandes de música o les migracions. Estes exposicions temporals complementen a les permanents.

Exposicions permanents
El Museu Valencià d'Etnologia presentà, a la seua exposició permanent inicial, tres sales: La ciutat viscuda. Ciutats valencianes en trànsit 1800-1940; Horta i marjal; i Secà i muntanya; les quals que tracteven els àmbits urbà, d'horta i marjal, i de secà i muntanya del territori valencià. En estos cinc àmbits, els objectes i els continguts es mostraven en relació amb uns eixos determinats: habitar (l'espai domèstic), conviure (els espais de trobada), i treballar (els llocs de treball). A més, el Museu produïa exposicions temporals de contingut etnològic, històric, antropològic i sociològic.

Després de 15 anys, al juny de 2018 es va començar a desmantellar l'exposició permanent per a la seua renovació total, en el cas de la sala dedicada a la ciutat, i per a una reforma menor a les sales dedicades a l´horta i la marjal, i el sec i la muntanya.

El Museu Valencià d'Etnologia aprofita el canvi para renixer amb una nova marca, L'ETNO, i un nou logotip, obra de Pep Gimeno, dissenyador també de l'anterior logotip.

Les obres de renovació, que van suposar el tancament de l'exposició permanent i una inversió d'aproximadament 250.000 euros, havien d'haver acabat per al mes de febrer de l'any 2020, però els retards en la tramitació administrativa del projecte van produir un retard en la inauguració, prevista, aquest cop, per al mes de març; finalment, els esdeveniments resultants de la pandèmia per COVID-19, van retardar la seva obertura al mes de juliol, reobrint les seues portes al públic e 14 d'aquest mateix mes.

La nova exposició, que ha passat a dir-se 'No és fàcil ser valenciana / No és fàcil ser valencià', i comissariada per Joan Seguí, Assumpció Garcia i Josep Aguilar, amb la col·laboració de tot l'equip del museu; compta amb més de 1500 m² sobre la cultura tradicional i popular valenciana més recent, del passat segle, i la més estesa.

Com passava amb l'exposició permanent anterior, amb la nova exposició es fa un recorregut per tres àmbits:

• la ciutat, on es plantegen qüestions relacionades amb la tensió entre la globalitat i la localitat;

• l'Horta i la Marjal, on es tracten alguns dels imaginaris que se solen projectar a la cultura valenciana;

• i el Secà i la Muntanya, on apareixen les invisibilitats, allò que no es veu o es coneix poc de les zones d'interior del territori valencià, i que serveixen de fil conductor a la visita.

Amb aquesta renovació s'han tractat d'assolir dos objectius:

1. fer una nova museografia per a la sala de Ciutat, que amb 15 anys d'existència havia complert ja el seu paper;

2. actualitzar el discurs de la totalitat de les sales permanents donant-li un caire més contemporani.

A més, aquesta modificació de la permanent ha permès eliminar algunes barreres arquitectòniques de les antigues sales, concebent les sales com a espais que permeten la realització d'activitats, ja siguen presentacions de llibres, conferències o activitats formatives.

Exposicions temporals

Paral·lelament a les exposicions permanents, s'han presentat exposicions temporals dedicades al món de la pilota valenciana, les bandes de música o les migracions. Estes exposicions temporals complementen a les permanents.

Anteriorment, però, ja n'hi havien hagut exposicions temporals. Des de la inauguració del museu fins a 1996 es realitzaran una sèrie d'exposicions monogràfiques dedicades a diferents àmbits del territori, entre elles una dedicada al cicle del cereal, i que tot i ser concebuda com a temporal, estigué en exposició des de 1986 fins a 1993. A partir de 1996, el Museu centra la seua política en la realització d'exposicions temporals, algunes pròpies i altres prestades d'altres museus o de col·leccions privades. Entre 1997 i 2002 es realitzarien un total de 64 exposicions diferents. De l'any 2004 al 2007 es feren unes 14 exposicions temporals, i entre 2008 i l'any 2019, al voltant de 47 exposicions de diferents temàtiques.

Exposicions itinerants

A banda de les exposicions exhibides al museu, també es realitzen exposicions itinerants que estan disponibles per a altres centres o associacions. Estes exposicions són, en alguns casos, versions adaptades de les temporals del museu, dedicades a temes com el món de la pilota valenciana.

Activitats

El Museu Valencià d'Etnologia realitza la seua activitat en el territori de la província de València assessorant els museus etnològics locals i itinerant diverses exposicions etnològiques i maletes didàctiques. També du a terme una activitat investigadora que es materialitza en distints projectes i en la convocatòria del Premi Bernat Capó de difusió de la cultura popular. Ha impulsat també el Museu de la Paraula, arxiu en línia de dades biogràfiques i testimonis de vora 400 entrevistes que recullen diverses facetes de la cultura tradicional valenciana.

El Museu edita una publicació periòdica, la Revista valenciana d'etnologia i les col·leccions "Temes d'Etnografia Valenciana" i "Intercanvis", a més dels catàlegs de les exposicions i col·laboracions externes com el Premi Bernat Capó. També disposa d'una biblioteca i centre de documentació especialitzada en etnologia i antropologia, oferint un servici obert a tots els investigadors, estudiants i interessats en les matèries que tracta i especialment en la cultura tradicional i popular valenciana.

En la seua programació s'inclouen els programes ETNO, que inclouen cicles de cinema, activitats musicals, jornades de formació, excursions o cicles d'etnocuina.

El museu disposa d'instal·lacions de reserva en Bétera, on s'emmagatzema i cataloga la col·lecció del museu, i on es troben les sales de restauració. Estes instal·lacions són visitables mitjançant un programa d'apertura i visita guiada.

El festival Etnomusic
L'any 2003 va tenir lloc per primera vegada el festival de música folk organitzat pel museu, que es va anomenar Festival Etnomusic, que és definit com a Festival de Música folk i del món.

Amb aquesta activitat el museu vol promoure i visibilitzar la música tradicional, però interpretada a través de les noves lectures musicals, i la gran varietat de músiques tradicionals que enriqueixen la cultura de tot el món.

Aquests concerts se celebren als patis interiors de el Centre Cultural La Beneficència, on s'ubica el museu; i són gratuitos.

Normalment aquests concerts s'organitzen entre els mesos de maig i juny, excepte l'any 2020, en el qual per la pandèmia i les restriccions d'actes i d'aforament existents, es va ajornar al mes de julio.

Els concerts tenen una temàtica concreta, diferents cada nova edició, així, per exemple:

En l'edició de l'any 2018 les propostes estaven relacionades amb el diàleg intercultural.

En l'edició de l'2019 les propostes tractaven de la varietat territorial.

En l'edició d'el 2020, les propostes presentades se centraven en la música de caràcter ibèric, deixant una mica de banda les formacions de world music o de grups internacionals, que, però, sí que hi eren presents en edicions d'altres anys.

Espanta la por: per Tots Sants, monstres valencians
Dintre de l'ampla propostes d'activitats que cada any organitza el museu, n'hi ha que són periòdiques i es repeteixen any darrere any. D'aquest tipus és la campanya que es creà l'any 2016 per part de la Biblioteca i el Departament de Didàctica del Museu Valencià d'Etnologia, per tal de celebrar el dia de Tots Sants, utilitzant la festa com a mitjà per a reivindicar l'imaginari valencià de la por.

Aquesta activitat sorgis de la necessitat de revaloritzar i donar a conéixer la riquesa de l'inmaginari de la por pròpi de la Comunitat Valenciana, el qual, per la influència de la festa nord-americana de Halloween, que ha quedat soterrat.

Els objectius que s'establiren al idear la campanya foren:

 Difondre l'imaginari popular valencià sobre la por.
 Fomentar la lectura i el coneixement de la literatura popular valenciana.
 Motivar la recopilació, l'anàlisi, les adaptacions i les noves edicions d'aquest tipus de contes.
 Treballar l'emoció de la por.
 Propiciar la recopilació local de llegendes i contes. Fer memòria oral local des de les biblioteques.
 Promoure l'ús de les biblioteques.

El projecte, en què col·laboren amb el MUVAET, el SARC – Cultura Diputació de València, Subdirecció General del Llibre, Arxius i Biblioteques i Servei de Formació del Professorat – CEFIRE (Generalitat Valenciana), Escola d'Art i Superior de Disseny de València (EASD) i el Col·legi oficial de Bibliotecaris i Documentalistes de la Comunitat Valenciana (COBDCV), ha de cumplir al 2019 la seua quarta convocatòria.

Destaca el fet que la campanya ha sigut inclosa en el Pla Valencià de Foment Lector 2017-2021 "Llegim, llegim, llegim" de la Subdirecció General del Llibre, Arxius i Biblioteques (Generalitat Valenciana) i compta amb el suport del Col·legi oficial de Bibliotecaris i Documentalistes de la Comunitat Valenciana (COBDCV).

La campanya també a fet que es dissenyaren una sèrie d'imatges dels personatges que integren el cicle, aquestes imatges amb comptat amb la col·laboració de l'Escola d'Art i Superior de Disseny de València (EASD), on l'alumne Joel Miralles Meneses ha estat l'encarregat de realitzar les il·lustracions i el cartell de la campanya.

Respecte a l'àmbit didàctic de la campanya, és doble, per una banda està destinat a les famílies, per a les quals s'organitzen una série d'activitats durants els caps de setmana anteriors al dia de Tots Sants; i per altra estan les escoles, per a les que s'organitzen un altre tipus d'activitats (tallers, exposicions, contacontes, cançons…) durant les setmanes anteriors a la festa. A més, tot el material està a l'abast de les persones interessades, que poden consultar-los en una plataforma online, anomenada el REBOST D'ESPANTA LA POR; d'aquesta manera les escoles i altres biblioteques poden trobar diferents recursos educatius per treballar amb els xiquets.

Aquesta campanya té un àmbit adult, en el qual es tracten en un ventall d'activitats (conferències, xerrades, jornades de narracions i oralitat…) les pors dels adults, tant en la seu dimensió tradicional com les pors més contemporànies que ens afecten en l'actualitat.

Per últim, cal esmentar la dimensió espacial de la campanya, que va més en enllà del propi museu i l'exten a les biblioteques públiques i als museus etnològics locals.

Gràcies a la campanya, el Museu valencià d'Etnologia ha creat una col·lecció de llibres, la Col·lecció Espanta la Por,  que estarà composta per un llibre anual dedicat a un monstre concret. El primer volum  de la col·lecció fou el conte infantil «Marta i la Tarasca» que té com a protagonista la bestia festiva del Corpus de València. El conte «Marta i la Tarasca» s'ha editat amb la col·laboració del CEFIRE específic d'infantil (GVA), i té com a autors a Guillem Furió, Almudena Marín i Sergi Morales. Les il·lustracions han estat realitzades per Joel Miralles. D'aquesta manera es tracta de donar a conéixer l'imaginari valencià, tant ric i tan desconegut.

Una altra faceta de la campanya entra en l'àmbit de la música, ja que al llarg dels dos últims anys s'han produït diverses cançons relacionades amb el projecte, com ara:

• Saps què fa por a la por? Autor: Sergi Morales.

• Les bruixes. Autor: Pau de la Torre.

• La biblioteca. Autor: Pau de la Torre.

• Al refugi dels monstres. Autor: Pau de la Torre.

• Som donyets. Autor: Pau de la Torre.

• Espanta la por. Autor: Pau de la Torre.

La campanya de l'any 2019 se centra en la vestimenta, d'aquesta manera el museu organitzà una exposició anomenada "Vestir la por", en la que es mostren disfresses dels monstres valencians. Aquestes disfresses han sigut creades amb la col·laboració de l'Escola d'Art i Superior de Disseny de València (EASD), i la campanya es fa també amb la col·laboració del SARC – Cultura Diputació de València, la Subdirecció General del Llibre, Arxius i Biblioteques, el Col·legi Oficial de Bibliotecaris i Documentalistes de la Comunitat Valenciana (COBDCV) i el Gremi de Llibrers de València. A més s'ha publicat un nou llibre dintre de la col·lección Espanta la por "Marta és un donyet" i un joc de taula que versa spbre els monstres valencians, entre altres activitats programades per a escoles i families. Com en altres convocatòries, la campanya s'exten a alvontat d'altres 100 biblioteques de la Comunitat, com és el cas de la Biblioteca d'Alcasser.

En la campanya de l'any 2020 es va introduir com a novetat unes oferta a les escoles d'una proposta didàctica per a Infantil i Primària, que recupera i actualitza la tradició de parlar de la por al voltant de la celebració del dia de Tots Sants.

Projectes externs
El Museu Valencià d'Etnologia disposa d'una unitat de Projectes Externs (Cooperació Municipal) que s'encarrega de gestionar els mitjans humans i materials destinats a recolzar les iniciatives d'ajuntaments i associacions d'àmbit local relacionades amb l'etnologia. De la mateixa manera, es coordina el treball amb diferents museus associats, vinculats al Museu Valencià d'Etnologia mitjançant convenis de col·laboració. A banda, existeix la Xarxa de Museus Etnològics Locals, que va ser fundada el febrer de 2017. Té una estructura cultural de cooperació, assessorament i formació que té per objectiu acabar amb l'aïllament dels museus locals tot creant un espai de comunicació i cooperació compartit.

as I need to exercise my knee properly. Dave and I both swim at least twice a day and totally enjoy life on the outside, a continuation of the way we have always lived. Below is a picture of our gigantic Staghorn Fern. It is enormous and has attached itself to a tree just outside of our back door. We are becoming real fern affecinados.


Short Description:The Biofresh socket Mop Head contains an antibacterial agent called triclosan which is spun into the yarn to stop bacteria growth and unpleasant smells. The head is also machine washable (up to 200 washes) and features an equal mix of synthetic and cotton. Although washable, the advantage of using this mop is the 'biofresh' element as the mop will smell fresh even after heavy use, which stops any unpleasant smell wafting towards a restaurant or reception area where people may notice it.
