We have been involved in Gardening Club since we were in Year 3. We are going to tell you about our school's gardening club. We have really enjoyed being in it. You can join this club when you're in year 2 or above. The last few years there have been so many children wanting to join that we changed it to two days a week, Monday and Thursday.
Garden Club starts up in Spring and runs through to Autumn. It's really fun at this club and we would recommend it to any students. Anyone who is interested should speak to Mr Stamper for further details.


When you are feeling congested, try a saline nasal rinse. This at-home treatment will help remove allergens from your nasal passages and make you feel much better. If your allergies are causing your throat to become itchy or sore, try gargling salt water around in your mouth a couple times a day.
Before you head out for a jog or to run errands, you may want to check the pollen counts for the day. If they are quite high, you may want to stay indoors until they go down a bit. If you see that the pollen counts are highest in the mid-afternoon, for example, try to do your errands in the evening.
Outdoor chores are not that fun for everyone, but they can be especially troublesome for people with allergies. However, sometimes it is necessary to do gardening and other outside chores. To prevent pollen from getting into your system, remember to wear a surgical mask while you do these chores.
To keep pollen out of your home, be sure to keep the indoor air as clean as possible by running the air conditioner consistently and cleaning the air conditioning filters at least once a month. If the air in your home is extra humid you might want to use a dehumidifier.
When you get back home after being outside for a while, it is a good idea to remove your clothes and throw them in the laundry. Then, take a shower to rinse the pollen from your skin and hair.
Springtime allergies do not have to make you completely miserable. If you follow these helpful tips, you can manage your allergies better. However, if you still can't get control of your allergies, you may want to see your allergy doctor. He or she may prescribe you medication to help relieve your allergy symptoms.


Solitude is essential. Much easier to listen to the universe whisper to me when I am alone.
I very much appreciate your comment and agree wholeheartedly about the essential nature of both solitude and connection. That you expressed the character of your experience of solitude as the universe "whispering" to you struck me as an indication that you clearly understand the importance of quieting the mind and allowing yourself time to "hear" the wisdom available to us all when we attend to our inner experience.
I spent some time today reading on your blog and see many areas of common interest for me, and must report an urge to spend more time there to gain the benefit of your broad range of interesting writing and hard-won wisdom. Your circumstances challenge you in ways that apparently have led you to many insightful musings and I recommend to any and all of my readers to stop by for a visit.
I am very glad you stopped by. I am back from an extended break from blogging and I miss writing and connections I have made with like minded sincere people like yourself.
Happy to meet you John.
The feeling is mutual, Nancy, and much of the benefit blogging provides in my view, aside from the release of our inner creativity and producing written content about what is of most importance to us, can be found in the sharing of ideas with others, which can enrich and inform our own efforts. Many of the connections I have made with others through my blog here have resulted in a broadening of my perspective, and occasionally visitors have acknowledged the reverse as well.
The primary subject I have chosen to pursue, concerning the complex machinations of our subjective experience and the nature of consciousness itself, can be quite challenging to write about in a way that is accessible to the general reader, and I am constantly searching for ways to relate my own and other people's personal experiences as a means of illuminating the many facets and mysteries surrounding the human subjective experience. It's equally challenging to present regular doses of complex ideas, and getting worthwhile content down on the pages here always seems to require me to spend much more time preparing to write, than it does to get through the actual writing itself!
Your blog is refreshingly honest and invites the reader in close to consider your thoughts, and I'm confident we will find we have much in common, as well as much to share that broadens our perspectives. Happy to be following and to be followed!

The Truth That was Drawn Out
"Kiara-san!"
With an arrow in her mouth that caused the corner of her mouth to be stained red from the prince's blood, Kiara went to approach Reggie without caring about the spark around him.
Even when Cain tried to chase after her, he ended up hesitating whether his decision was correct or not.
After all, the only one here who understood the matter related to magicians was her. Hence, he couldn't decide whether her action was based on success rate or if it was a reckless action.
However, Prince Reginald must be saved at all cost. He is the army's insignia. Therefore, he prayed that Kiara's action would succeed.
Cain grasped his hand tightly.
He couldn't be any of help. Even if he wanted to protect her from the spark, he thought that there would be a chance his action would hinder her.
However, he could only do what he could at this time.
"Search for the archer! They are at the west side of the castle walls!"
At Cain's words, the soldiers and the knights who hadn't moved at all due to the situation, finally started to run.
"Close the gate!"
"Send the signal to be on look out!"
Amidst the uproar, Cain didn't move an inch from his spot. If that certain party's attack were not to end with just this, there was a chance for Kiara to be targeted. Since he had the duty of becoming her guarding knight, Cain couldn't go to find the perpetrator.
Cain and other four soldiers were standing on guard around Kiara and Reggie, guarding in all four cardinal directions.
From the earlier arrow's track, they knew that the attacker fired the arrow from the castle walls. There were no merchants allowed to wander around that area. There were only the soldiers who served inside the castle and the feudal lord's relatives, also the people close to them.
Aside from those people, there were only people who stayed as guests inside the castle.
They were on alert.
Even so, just how in the world did they manage to slip through the monitoring? Or was the perpetrator Cecilia's knight?
While he was thinking, the situation Kiara was in altered.
It seemed that the situation was quite severe as Kiara was conversing with the doll who was her master that she could look up to. He could tell that Prince Reginald received the curse of fallen magician.
However, Cain and the others couldn't lend a hand. They could only leave everything to her.
Each time the sparkle fell, her clothes were scorched, and she even grimaced in pain. She was desperately repeating these words: "Don't die."
Cain had never thought, even in his dreams, that there would come an occasion where he couldn't do anything.
Even if her master—the one in the form of a talking doll who couldn't even use magic—told her to resign everything to fate, Kiara shook her head, and in the end, she even had to offer the blood dripping from her hand that she cut.
Then, before long, the sparkles falling around Prince Reginald were lessened.
In the end, Kiara collapsed as she had used up all of her strength.
Horace shouted to Cain and the other soldiers who were gasping.
"Hurry and move the two of them to a safer place!"
The soldiers carried Prince Reginald on the stretcher in a fluster. Since his strange condition was now over, the soldiers ran towards the residence in relief.
Cain held Kiara in his arms.
With her eyes still closed, the way she breathed was similar to the way a human breathed after they just sprinted with their whole energy. Her condition couldn't be said as good.
"Horace-san, Kiara-san is…"
"My disciple overdid herself."
If his expression could change, based on his voice, Horace would perhaps be making a sour face.
"It's fortunate that it was only a small dose, but to take the same amount of that dose and to hold down the power of the contract stone that didn't have anything to do with her… It was an overkill. When normally you could just see them off as they turn into sand, she forcibly twisted the process… I couldn't even imagine how much power she used for that."
"Is she in a dangerous condition?"
Horace raised his earthen body's arm as he responded Cain's question with, "Who knows?"
"She managed to endure it well, so she shouldn't die. But with how she used her power, it wouldn't be weird for her finger to turn into sand and crumble."
Even knowing that, she still did it.
Horace said as he looked up at Kiara. Cain felt a sympathy in some respects when he looked at them.
"You are my disciple's guard, right? This disciple of mine would definitely try to help those close to her just like this next time. Take that to mind. Even if it's not that easy to obtain the contract stone, as long as we're facing the same enemy, there's a possibility that the same method would happen again in the future."
Cain nodded at Horace's warning.
He didn't want to face the same danger. That was how he felt.
However… What is the best way he could protect? If he couldn't save even just her, there's a possibility that Prince Reginald, Alan, and even he himself would be in danger due to the nature of their enemy.
Still, it wasn't like one single person could protect everyone.
There is nothing perfect in this world. Thus, the best way should something happen might be to give up the life and death of someone else other than her.
But if he were to do that, Kiara would definitely revolt.

The search for the perpetrator after that ended with a tricky result.
The person who shot the arrow was planning to disappear into the crowd, but Alan who joined the search party was too suspicious of him, so he detained that person.
The perpetrator turned out to be one of the four knights of Tolisfid.
By the time Alan apprehended that knight, he held the remaining of goods that we thought were used on Prince Reginald, and as he made a part of the wall turn into the sand, he himself also turned into sand and crumbled.
Two of the other knights escaped outside the castle.
If the only people going in and out of the castle on that day were only the soldiers, the search would surely be commenced with more ease. However, there were also merchants who went in and out of the castle at that time, so there were people who stopped in confusion as they saw those who tried to escape promptly, and there were injured people who screamed and caused confusion. It caused the search to be delayed and a hole in the defence.
The last knight attempted to murder Cecilia.
Thanks to Kiara conveying Cecilia's strange situation to Madam Beatrice, they were able to take precautions.
Madam Beatrice who heard Kiara's story, immediately sent her own maid, Clara and some knights. Then, the moment a response was delayed from the room, Clara immediately opened the door thinking that it would be fine even if she had to shoulder responsibility for what would unfold.
Seeing Kiara's fear, Clara thought that the enemy was ingenious at subtle deceit since the monitoring soldier didn't come to report any abnormality even when the situation was one that they should seek help for.
If that was the case, it was necessary to take them by surprise so they could no longer keep up any appearance. Therefore, she jumped into the room the moment she felt that there was something wrong with the response.
It was precisely the moment that the Tolisfid knight was trying to dispose Cecilia.
However, deciding to let Clara's visit to go past the place, the knight thought to let Cecilia answer as he instructed for the moment. Thanks to it, Cecilia was rescued from being killed beforehand, but during the moment Clara and the others raided to help before the sword was thrusted at her, she ended up having a thin cut on her neck.
After violently resisting, the Tolisfid knight was killed by Clara and the others.
Despite her being wounded, Cecilia felt that she was finally safe as she seemed to cry herself out while clinging to Clara.
Time passed, and according to the information that they finally acquired, Cecilia was being monitored and threatened by the knights.
Furthermore, the knights weren't Tolisfid's people. All of them were Viscount Credius' subordinates.
From this information, they could tell that the military occupation of the Tolisfid fief had something to do with Viscount Credius.
Moreover, Cecilia said that her mother was poisoned. She was told that if she wanted her mother's life to be saved, she had to help in snatching away the prince and the magician's lives. And so, she was brought to Everal.
She was ordered to give the poison to the prince when they were together.
The reason she made mistakes as she seemed like she was about to cry was in order that she didn't have to touch the tea anymore after her failure, in order to protect the prince.
Again, Cecilia seemed to have confessed when she told Kiara not to get close to the prince. However, it was in order to prevent the unlikely event that they were present together at a tea ceremony and, in the worst-case scenario, to avoid them getting killed at the same time.
If, for example her blunder failed, and the poison was placed, Cecilia was planning to take Reginald's drink in a suicidal method to save at least the prince.
Since she didn't want to repeat such a gruesome experience, Cecilia said, "Help," to Kiara.
As Cecilia's intended failure continued, the Everal army's departure day was drawing near. Therefore, Viscount Credius' subordinates thought that at least they would attack Kiara in attempt to kill her. They seemed to judge that if the magician wasn't present, the army's power might be reduced to around half of it.
Moreover, they sealed Cecilia's mouth and tried to make the identity of the person who ordered the murder attempt remain vague.
The arrow plastered with the contract sand that was shot to Kiara was definitely fired in order to kill her.
There was no magician that could heal wounds. Moreover, it would be difficult for her to negate the effects of the contract stone if she were injured.
However, the arrow pierced Prince Reginald.
Since the addressee wasn't a magician, the prince would definitely die even if the arrow didn't cause a fatal wound. Although the arrangement had changed, the enemy thought that it was also good and planned on escaping.
Cecilia, who finished talking while still weeping her eyes out, left the place where there were the margrave, the margravine, and the knights as she was supported by Clara.
Horace saw her out and then reluctantly informed Cain and the others.
"…Viscount Credius is a magician."
"Eh? Magician?"
Margrave Vayne, Alan, Madam Beatrice, and everyone who also heard Horace's words then turned pale.
"How come?"
As Madam Beatrice asked, Horace said uncomfortably as he used his porcelain hand to scratch his waist.
"Why did you think I came to this frontier and worked to scatter the beasts' bait?"
"Weren't you hired by them?"
Listening to Alan's answer, Horace laughed in a self-mockery tone.
"Fuhihihi. How lovely it would be if I was just hired. It was because I was ambushed and tied by a slavery contract. …They fed me the contract stone after all."
"So, you weren't just aiming for riches…"
Alan uttered a harsh statement forthrightly.
"I didn't want to have even the slightest bit of relation to this kind of war because I wanted to live long. And yet, without showing his figure, he managed to catch me off guard and trap me. As such, I wasn't able to take revenge… That's how it was. He knows way too much about magicians."
Too many happening in this chapter. All this information! Might have to reread it later to digest everything.

How to catch a cable car in San Francisco?
Stand at a brown and white Cable Car Stop sign. As the cable car approaches, raise your hand to signal the driver to stop. Pay the conductor after boarding (with $20 notes or less) if you don't already have a ticket or pass. If the cable car does does not stop then it is likely full. Between 8 am and 5 pm, to board at the end-of-line turnarounds at Powell & Market, Bay & Taylor and Hyde & Beach Streets, you must purchase your fare in advance.

Q: Changing permissions for files in linux I have started using Linux recently for development of a project and currently facing some issues with file permissions in the directories.
I have some libraries .so files that I need to access from the folder /usr/local/lib. When I check the files manually in the folder, the files show that I am not the owner and root is the owner.
However, in a different directory, where I subsequently tried installing the same libraries at /home/jade/cb/lib/, if I check the libraries, I do have the permission.
My C++ program has been stuck since it cannot access the libraries from these. I tried changing the permissions using sudo chmod 777 -R *.* while inside usr/local/lib but the permissions or anything don't change. How do I get rid of this problem? (Distro: Ubuntu 12.10)

A: man chmod:

chmod  never  changes the permissions of symbolic links; the chmod system call cannot change
  their permissions.  This is not a problem since the permissions of symbolic links are never used.
  However, for each symbolic link listed on the command line, chmod changes the permissions of  the
  pointed-to  file.   In contrast, chmod ignores symbolic links encountered during recursive
  directory traversals.

A: Most source that requires you to build it makes use of a configure script. This configure script takes a switch called --prefix that takes an argument which you can override the location of where the software will be installed. Usually you override the default location (usually /usr/local) with a directory that you have write access to.
Here's a example from the software application node.js. The node.js software when downloaded and untarred/unzipped looks like this:
[saml@grinchy node-v0.8.12]$ ls
AUTHORS    BSDmakefile  common.gypi  config.mk  deps  lib      Makefile  node.gyp  README.md  test   vcbuild.bat
benchmark  ChangeLog    config.gypi  configure  doc   LICENSE  node      out       src        tools

Running the configure script included looks like this:
[saml@grinchy node-v0.8.12]$ ./configure --help
Usage: configure [options]

Options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --debug               Also build debug build
  --prefix=PREFIX       Select the install prefix (defaults to /usr/local)
  --without-npm         Don't install the bundled npm package manager
  --without-waf         Don't install node-waf
  --without-ssl         Build without SSL
  --without-snapshot    Build without snapshotting V8 libraries. You might
                        want to set this for cross-compiling. [Default: False]
...
...

If I want to change the default location I can call configure like so:
[saml@grinchy node-v0.8.12]$ ./configure --prefix=/home/saml/my_node.js

The resulting Makefile that get's generated will now target my directory instead of the default, /usr/local.

Ram and Rain
Published on 24th November, 2019, in Mid-day
In the Tulsi Ramcharitmanas, which was composed 500 years ago in the Gangetic plains, in the Awadhi language, we find a beautiful description of rain in Ram's own words. He speaks during the four months of the rainy season, when he is waiting for the rain to end so that he can launch an attack on Lanka. Ram talks of the season as he speaks to Lakshman and the monkeys who surround him. Sitting on top of a mountain, he looks at the rain clouds and is overwhelmed with despair. He is besieged by loneliness and misery, which he experiences because of the absence of Sita.
Tulsidas translates this description of rain and rainwater into philosophy. Ram says, firstly, clouds that do not carry enough rain move about freely. They are not stopped by the lightning bolts that fall upon them, much like an arrogant irresponsible man does not listen to the wise counsel of his parents, siblings and other close members of his family.
Secondly, Ram states how clouds, which are laden with rain have enough humility to descend towards land and touch the earth. Thirdly, he describes how the mountains are relentlessly pelted with thick raindrops and rivulets of rain, but they remain unmoved, much like a wise man, who is not affected by insults of (we can surely use the term) trolls.Fourthly, Ram speaks about how when raindrops mix with earth, they get soiled and their clarity is spent, just like a man with newly acquired riches, or a saint, who gets trapped in worldly endeavours, and is consumed by maya and loses focus.
Fifthly, Ram speaks about small streams, which break the river bank, as they fill up with water, like newly rich people who show off, and forget their limits. Sixthly, he speaks of how dry ponds collect water from rivulets and become full, like an inquiring mind acquires wisdom, when it is surrounded by the words of wise people.
Seventhly, Ram speaks of how the sea does not swell, in spite of all the river water entering it, in the way a wise man remains stable, no matter the amount of success that surges into his life.
Ram also speaks of propaganda, and Tulsidas elucidates it very beautifully. Following the rain, when there is so much grass, the once clear pathways get hidden, just as when following propaganda, the correct news is often overlooked by people.
Thus, we see Tulsidas using the metaphors of the rain to explain social realities, as well as the psychological reality of the human mind. This connection of nature with psychology is a practice that we find first in Sangam literature, composed 2,000 years ago, almost 1,500 years before Tulsidas. It is by making it appear as a conversation, via the mouth of Ram, Tulsidas bestows a certain legitimacy upon it, so that it appeals to as many people as possible.

News Sales tax rate rises
Sales tax rate rises
Staff Written July 3, 2019 News
By Tia Lynn Ivey
A new one-percent sales tax took effect in Morgan County on July 1, raising the local sales tax from 7 percent to 8 percent. The new Transportation Special Project Local Option Sales Tax (TSPLOST) was passed during a special election in March to garner more revenue exclusively to fund transportation-related projects and expenses, such as road repairs, paving, and maintenance, as well as purchasing and maintaining equipment and buildings used for transportation needs.
County officials are warning local businesses to be sure to update their financial systems to reflect the new sales tax rate.
"We are reminding everyone to make sure they are charging customers the new 8 percent sales tax rate as of July 1," said County Manager Adam Mestres. "Businesses will be billed the 8 percent rate from the Department of Revenue whether or not they update their systems. So if they don't update it, it will eat into their profit margins," warned Mestres.
Mestres encouraged people to pay close attention to their receipts and if they notice the old 7 percent sales tax rate still being applied to let the business owner know or a county official know.
"We want to get everyone on the same page," said Mestres.
County officials believe TSPLOST will greatly help offset expensive road projects. Keeping up with road infrastructure has proved challenging and costly for Morgan County. The average cost to resurface just one mile of roadway is about $100,000. To pave just one mile of dirt road is about $400,000. But TSPLOST will enable the county to take on more than double the roadwork than in previous years—up to 20 miles worth of resurfacing per year.
According to County Manager Adam Mestres, TSPLOST is expected to bring in $18 million over the course of five years. Over $12 million of those revenues would be used by the county, while the rest would be distributed between the City of Madison, Rutledge, Bostwick and the Town of Buckhead. The city of Madison's share of projected revenues from TSPLOST is expected to be 21.9 percent, which would amount to about $3.8 million, according to the IGA. "We believe this is a very conservative estimate," said City Manager David Nunn, who noted in the past, sales tax projections aimed too high and brought in less than anticipated.

Norwegian billionaire funds deluxe deep ocean research ship
Twice as big as most research ships, the REV (seen in an artist's concept)
can operate in polar regions.
Eespen Øino Int.
From ScienceMag by Erik Stokstad
"A dream vessel" is what Joana Xavier, a sponge expert at the University of Porto in Portugal, calls a new research ship due to launch in 2021.
Funded by a Norwegian billionaire, the 183-meter-long Research Expedition Vessel (REV) will be the largest such ship ever built, more than twice the length of most rivals.
Engineered to endure polar ice, punishing weather, and around-the-world voyages, the REV will not only be big and tough, but packed with top-of-the-line research gear—and luxurious accommodations.
Its full capabilities were detailed for the first time last week at a meeting on deep-sea exploration at The Royal Society in London.
The $350 million ship, under construction in a Black Sea shipyard in Romania, is owned by Kjell Inge Røkke, 60, who made his fortune in fishing, offshore oil, and other marine industries.
In October, he promised an additional $150 million to REV Ocean in Fornebu, Norway, to operate the ship for at least 3 years, giving scientists free access.
Røkke started the foundation last year to find solutions to climate change, ocean acidification, overfishing, and marine pollution.
"The scale of the investment and commitment is astounding," says Victor Zykov, science director of the Schmidt Ocean Institute, a charity in Palo Alto, California, that has its own research vessel, the Falkor
182m Espen Oeino-designed, developed by VARD.
Exploration 60 scientists and 40 crew, charterer 36 guests and a crew of 54, 16,000GT, beam 22m, maximum speed 17 knots, range 21,120 nautical miles at 11 knots, up to 114 days full autonomy with a 90 passengers.
Many national research fleets are aging and shrinking.
Since 2005, for example, the U.S. academic fleet has declined from 27 vessels to 18, and by 2025 it will it drop to 16 ships.
As a result, marine scientists can face long waits for ship time.
"If I want to know what's happening in a particular place, it might not work out within a decade," says Antje Boetius, an oceanographer and director of the Alfred Wegener Institute in Bremerhaven, Germany.
Philanthropists have launched several vessels to help shorten the queue, but few are dedicated to research, and all are dwarfed by the REV.
It offers room for 60 researchers and large areas for science and engineering.
It will have trawls for capturing marine life and a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) for on-the-spot observations, a rare combination, and much else.
"The idea that all the assets are on the ship, and you can pick and choose, that is tremendous," says Ajit Subramaniam, a microbial oceanographer at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory of Columbia University.
The ROV, capable of 6000-meter descents, can be launched through large side doors or a moon pool in the hull.
A pair of ship-borne helicopters can release smaller autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), which don't need tethers to the main vessel.
"Think of it as an aircraft carrier for robotics," says Chris German, a marine geochemist at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts.
The REV will also have a crewed submersible, probably one capable of descending 2000 meters.
The main trawl, designed by Røkke's company Aker BioMarine for harvesting krill in the Southern Ocean, can remain 3000 meters deep while funneling fish to a tube that quickly pumps them up to the ship's wet labs.
This offers the tantalizing possibility of collecting jellyfish and other soft organisms that normally don't survive the slow trip to the surface when the trawl is winched up, opening a porthole into marine food webs.
"If the gear can sample with less damage, this would really help," says biological oceanographer Xabier Irigoien, science director of AZTI, a nonprofit institute for marine research in Pasaia, Spain.
The REV could also make a significant contribution to understanding fisheries on the high seas, Irigoien adds.
The intergovernmental organizations that regulate fishing beyond national jurisdictions don't own ships and can rarely afford to pay for time.
Free access to the REV could help scientists fill the gaps.
They might be able to track tagged tuna or sharks with AUVs, for instance, while sizing up schools of fish with the ship's high-tech sonar.
By combining data from the trawl and sonar, Irigoien says, researchers could chart potential fisheries in the deep sea before they're exploited.
The same technologies would be useful for investigating far-flung marine protected areas.
Most research vessels are spartan, but on the REV scientists will have nearly full run of the ship, including its lounges, gym, dining room, and seven-story atrium.
Magne Furuholmen, an artist and former keyboardist of 1980s pop group A-ha, is choosing the art collection.
The REV is also eco-friendly: It's fuel efficient with low emissions and a broad, stable hull designed to reduce noise pollution.
If it encounters a garbage patch, booms can collect up to 5 tons a day of plastic to incinerate onboard for energy.
Alex Rogers, an oceanographer at the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom, starts next month as the full-time science director for REV Ocean.
He says scheduling an expedition on the REV could be quicker and more flexible than on government research vessels, which are sometimes limited by range, budget, or scientific focus.
On the other hand, working with philanthropists is not like dealing with a research funding agency.
"You have to explain what you're doing," Rogers says.
"Be prepared to communicate with them."
Røkke's history could raise concerns about hidden agendas.
"I think there will always be some level of suspicion from the public that a person like Røkke—who made a fortune in ocean industries—that somehow there are strings attached," Rogers admits.
So he is working with the Research Council of Norway to design an independent review process that will select projects for ship time.
Rogers says the only expectation is that researchers focus on solutions and share their data after they publish.
"If Alex is involved, I have faith," says Kerry Howell, a deep-sea ecologist at the University of Plymouth in the United Kingdom.
"He's not the kind of person who would work for the dark side."
As for Røkke, he has no plans to run the foundation and is "very meticulous about this being fully independent and objective," says Nina Jensen, CEO of REV Ocean.
"He is serious about making a difference for the oceans." Jensen, who studied marine biology and previously led the environmental advocacy group WWF Norway , says she told Røkke she will resign if one of his companies, Aker BP, drills for oil in Norway's Lofoten islands, which boast rich fisheries and the largest known deep-water coral reefs.
To help cover the costs of operation, for 4 months a year the REV will open 60% of its berths on research expeditions to paying eco-tourists.
For another 4 months, the entire ship will be available as a luxury yacht.
Jensen hopes benefactors will charter it as a "floating think tank" to win more support for ocean protection.
Any extra funds raised will go to support early-career scientists.
It's an unproven model, Jensen concedes, but the REV won't sink or float on its fundraising prowess.
Røkke's pledge last month to support operations was only his first, Jensen says.
"It will not be the last."

Louisa Taylor
Senior Lecturer, School of Art and Media
Emaill.taylor28@brighton.ac.uk
Louisa Taylor's research interests focus on museum collections of 18th Century dining vessels. Louisa is intrigued by high society dining rituals of the period and the performance of multi-course dining events. Her particular research interest lies with obsolete function and Louisa explores methods to redesign objects to create contemporary tableware for modern living. Louisa strives for a playfulness within her work and ultimately encourage user interaction and provoke conversation. Another area of interest is colour research for porcelain stoneware oxidised temperatures (1280°C). The subtle colour palette of Louisa's work is directly influenced by hand painted decoration on historical tureens. Louisa deconstructs each individual colour and matches it with glaze. Her aim is to use the content of the decoration to inform the overall composition of the piece and combine this with honed forms.
During Jan-June 2012, Louisa Taylor undertook a ceramics residency at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. Her research explored the museum's collections of 18th-century porcelain wares, in particular Staffordshire pickle pots and spoon rests. The intention was to create objects that invited use and captured the playful qualities of the original pieces. This led to a collection of work entitled Papillion (2013) which explored the role of food history and the impact it has on the way we dine today. Louisa consulted with a food historian and was able to research food stuffs that were becoming available to the country during that time, such as pasta, chocolate and tropical fruits. There was greater awareness of health and well-being and new medical discoveries that radically changed diet, this included citrus fruit and the link between vitamin C preventing scurvy in sailors. Papillion collection was a series of serving dishes, made from porcelain, cut and assembled. In the base of each dish was a moulded detail of the food. The intention of the piece was, as the food was eaten from the vessel the moulded texture of the food stuff would be revealed to the user - creating a link between historical and modern dining.
Louisa's most recent work entitled Sophie Tea Set (2016) is a further conclusion to the body of research for Papillion and explores themes that were beginning to develop during the residency including the role of women in high society and historically the importance of tea rituals as a female social activity. The set is an interpretation of an 18th Century centrepiece by the Meissen Factory. The tray has plinths built in to elevate the key components in the tea ceremony but to also create a sense of grandeur and occasion. The set is a personal response by Louisa as it was made to commemorate the special life of a loved one and to inspire a message of celebration.
In 2019, Louisa undertook a week training course studying silversmithing and metal work skills at West Dean College, West Sussex. This has led to a progression in her research, exploring the link between metal forms of the 18th Century and porcelain forms of the same period. This project is ongoing.
Scholarly biography
Louisa Taylor studied a BA (hons) degree in 3D Design: Ceramics, at Bath Spa University (2000-2003) and then spent a year working as a production potter in rural Lincolnshire. This was followed by a Masters degree in Ceramics and Glass at the Royal College of Art, London (2004-2006). Louisa set up her ceramic business in October 2006 and received a Development Award from the Crafts Council in January 2007.
In 2009, Louisa won the "Batch Production Award" at the prestigious British Ceramics Biennial, Stoke on Trent. This was followed by: "The Evening Standard Homes & Property Best Domestic Product 2009" and "UK Trade & Investment Silver Award for Innovation, Creativity and Potential to Export".

GAME OVER: 'Disgraceful' NFL to DITCH On-Field National Anthem
NFL owners and officials are considering changing the league's rules for the upcoming 2018 season, crafting new policies that would keep all athletes in the locker room during the performance of the national anthem should player protests continue.
According to Sports Illustrated, the NFL is weighing the move after months of their athletes' choosing to "take a knee" as the 'Star-Spangled Banner' rings out throughout stadiums across the country.
The ensuring controversy has cost the league millions of dollars in decreased television ratings and ticket sales.
"I think that if players are still kneeling at the end of the year, then it could very well happen," said a source close to the discussion.
President Trump thrust the issue of player protests into the national spotlight earlier this year when he called for a national boycott should the "disgraceful" league continue to permit political displays.
Just this week, the President called for a season-long suspension for one NFL star who chose to kneel during the US national anthem, but stood for the Mexican anthem while playing an international game in Mexico City.
Several coaches have vowed to stop the act, but none have implemented any policies that actually ban players from "taking a knee."
Loretta F Katano says:
IF they do this, next year there will be no NFL in this home. The NFL station was given to us for coming back to Direct but this will be the last year. We already have stopped buying anything NFL. And will not ever again. We are done with Football here. And I am so glad. And if all the owner's agree to disallow the National Anthem after this year, I will believe it is just as much the owner's fault as the players. One thing I do want to say, not all player's are thugs. But a majority are. So good bye football hello baseball, volleyball and college football.
Donald Hanson says:
Does the NFL really believe that not coming out for the autumn will bring back the fans??? They must be smoking some crazy kind of pot… Their band aid won't work and it will be a very cold day in Hell before I ever tune up a NFL or NBA game in this life time….


InStorage Real Estate Investment Trust (the "REIT" or "InStorage")(TSX:IS.UN) announced today that it will be opening two new self-storage facilities on March 1, 2008 located in Calgary, Alberta and Windsor, Ontario. In total, the two facilities will add approximately 128,000 square feet of gross leaseable area (GLA) to the REIT's portfolio once they are acquired.
The REIT has entered into a forward-purchase agreement with the developer/owner of the Windsor, Ontario facility whereby InStorage will receive fees for the management of the facility until it is fully stabilized and acquired. The new facility is branded with the new InStorage colours, logos and interior fittings. The property is fully climate-controlled, and contains 48,000 square feet of GLA, with expansion capability to add a further 17,000 square feet of GLA over time. InStorage expects it will acquire the facility upon full stabilization, which is anticipated in 2010.
The Calgary facility, aggregating 80,000 square feet of GLA, was developed by the REIT's development partner InScotia Developments LP. The REIT provided mezzanine loan financing for the construction of the property, and will receive management fees until the facility is fully stabilized and acquired, expected in 2010. The new facility is also fully outfitted with InStorage's new branding package.
"We are pleased to be adding two new branded facilities to our growing network of properties," said T. James Tadeson, Chief Executive Officer. "Our relationship with InScotia continues to provide us with an expanding pipeline of state-of-the-art properties for future acquisition, and we are pleased to be adding this prime facility in central Calgary to our portfolio. In addition, the forward-purchase agreement for the Windsor property allows us to secure the future purchase of a stabilized facility without any up-front investment."
The REIT is an unincorporated open-ended real estate investment trust that invests primarily in self-storage properties and ancillary businesses throughout Canada. The REIT is the largest owner/operator of self storage facilities in Canada and is the country's leading self-storage industry consolidator, with a current portfolio of 52 self-storage properties located in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario and Quebec. The REIT's Units (Symbol IS.UN) are traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange.
