least provide job opportunities to the poor. Traditional agricultural practices were still widely employed.
These practices revolve around the concept of bernisha. Technical innovation involved an adapted use
of the off-set disc harrow. This demonstrated the capacity of the farmers to appropriate exogenous
technologies within their particular cultural and farming systems requirements. It is concluded that unless
research and extension services undergo radical conversions of their programs by acknowledging the
expertise of peasant farmers they will continue to confront failures in their endeavors.

As I talk with people about America’s Waterway, there’s some confusion about the words, “civic engagement”.
A definition is in order: civic engagement engenders collective action to identify and address issues of public concern. And, perhaps most relevant to America’s Waterway and the civic engagement we are planning: it instills a personal sense of responsibility to uphold obligations to a community.
So it goes beyond consensus-building and collaboration. It goes beyond outreach. It’s a community-building endeavor meant to last beyond a single decision-making step.
In the interest of clarity, here are 10 reasons civic engagement for the Mississippi River makes sense. In true Jay Leno fashion, we’ll start with number 10:
#10. Civic engagement relies on a knowledge base of facts, science and agreed-upon values. Where this knowledge base is incomplete, civic engagement requires that it be created and shared by all participants. It makes sure scientific, demographic and economic information is fresh, accurate and included. The internet and site-based technology enable this.
#9. Civic engagement relies on a trusted environment where participants feel safe and secure in expressing their opinions. This usually means those who conduct the civic engagement process are outsiders and professionals. That’s why we’ve partnered with AmericaSpeaks, the national leader in deliberative democracy, to conduct the National Dialogue. For Mississippi River residents, this means the agenda isn’t prescribed by special interests, and it minimizes turf issues.
#8. Civic engagement is purposely designed to address complex, multi-party issues that can’t be reached by one single agent. This is why it’s particularly appropriate for the Mississippi River. By definition the River is a complex ecosystem, important for habitat, economic prosperity, healthy communities, cultural heritage…. you name it. And, all these interests play a part in the process.
#7. Civic engagement, while deliberately addressing large and complex issues, relies on local participation and ownership. This sounds like an oxymoron, but it’s achievable. It’s critical to arriving at a shared sense of responsibility for the whole Mississippi River. By now, you can tell this isn’t your average public outreach campaign.
#6. When there’s civic engagement, participants work on future issues rather than revisiting historical differences of opinion or reacting to proposed policies. By holding simultaneous small group discussions, participants work together to find common ground. This is something Americans excel at – solving problems together. So why not tap this national tradition for the country’s largest and most significant river?
#5. Civic engagement can accomplish goals faster and more measurably. How is this possible? First, face-to-face meetings are managed by experienced facilitators. But most important, information and systems technology is maximized to collect and prioritize citizen ideas and responses. Decisions about whole-River approaches can be made, can move forward, and reach goals within set time frames.
#4. True civic engagement ensures that all affected parties are in the process. When we hold hearings or do public outreach, research tells us only the people with the strongest voices get heard and only those who are already receptive hear the information. By adopting a civic engagement platform and using a proven process to reach all sectors of the Mississippi River – as is our commitment – we insure water quality advocates, commerce advocates, habitat restoration advocates, recreational advocates, and so on – are in the room and collaboration is authentic.
#3. Civic engagement is practical for today’s public decision-making environment. The public expects to be involved in the decisions that affect their lives. There is no going back to believing that because the River is different along its course, that people are willing to have authorities in another section of the River make decisions that affect their livelihoods and futures where they live. Technology and mapping research can aid us in sharing our visual understanding of the whole Mississippi River.
#2. Civic engagement’s goal is sustained engagement, not just attendance. The new approaches created through The National Dialogue will need support. Civic engagement relies on active involvement and that builds active support.
#1. In the hands of skilled facilitators, civic engagement fosters exploration of joint gains and integrated solutions. This is the main reason America’s Waterway has asked AmericaSpeaks to conduct A National Dialogue on behalf of the Mississippi River. We know civic engagement results in better, more comprehensive and integrated solutions. And, that’s what we all want for America’s Great Waterway, the Mississippi River.

On a recent Tuesday afternoon, Qadeerah Rasheed-Spriggs watched as about 20 children side-kicked the air, pivoted, front kicked and punched at nothing in particular.
An instructor walked among the children, who were 10 to 16 years old, demonstrating the proper technique.
In another room, a dozen 5- to 7-year-old children were seated in a circle playing a game. Down the hall, about 20 kids, all 8- and 9- year-olds, were in the pool learning to swim.

A super muffin is a muffin that tastes delicious and is pretty, too! Let me just say that those two characteristics are a rare combination.
And they have nothing to do with the Super Bowl. I’ve never even watched the Super Bowl before.
Whoever invented the muffin liner in the picture above is a genius. It’s way better than crumbly, crinkled wrappers that pull the muffin apart, usually resulting in part of the muffin ending up on the floor.
And the concept of the liner is very simple. It’s just a creased square. Sometimes the most simple things in life are the best. So sometimes all you need is “Just a Simple Melody” sung by a very young Ella Fitzgerald with Chick Webb and His Orchestra!

A great server at a restaurant can completely transform the experience. Lots of people can be polite and get your order right. But there’s an art to being great. The server who makes you feel right at home, who strikes the perfect balance of attentive service without unnecessary interruption, someone who strings together so many contributions—both tangible and intangible—that you leave the restaurant talking about him. Even if you’re dining at the local pizza joint, a server like that delivers an experience that would not have been the same without him. He’s not just doing the job; he’s using it as a platform to put on a show.
When high school students look for ways to stand out, most think immediately of higher achievements—better grades, higher test scores, more notable accomplishments and honors and accolades. There’s no doubt that colleges recognize and reward the hard work that goes into all of those things.
But there’s an additional path that’s more open and accessible—treating each opportunity as a platform, a chance to deliver a performance.
Platforms can be found in any role, from the section editor of the yearbook to the president of the senior class to the kid who takes the orders at the drive-through window to make extra spending money. The president of the club and the member who just joined both have platforms, different ones for sure, but still opportunities to put on performances. They get to decide how hard to work, how they can best make an impact, and how to ensure they’ll be missed when they eventually move on. There’s no need for the new member to wait until she holds an elected office. She’s got a platform right now. Why not start performing?
Admissions officers talk about how they look for “high impact admits,” students who appear bound to make a difference right away both inside and outside of class. The best way to judge the potential for impact is to look for evidence of it in a student’s past. Whether you’re sitting in Spanish class, refereeing youth soccer games, learning karate, or playing the French horn, you have a choice. You can do what’s required and know that you’ll be just like every other student. Or you can use the opportunity to stand out. Your platform is your chance to perform. Go break a leg.

Countries' accelerated scientific progress should not slow down or be halted, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei said on Wednesday.
He referred to the economic and political problems in the country and noted that in spite of the current problems, Iran can provide a firm basis for scientific progress.
The Leader advised the Iranian scientists to learn from the western scientists and use their capabilities.
He said also that the Iranian scientists should not trust the western programs because despite their scientific advances, they have committed most crimes against the nations in the history.

The Final Empire is the name for the empire created by the Lord Ruler. The name Final Empire was meant to imply that there would be no empires after it because it would be eternal. The Final Empire is acknowledged by Rashek to not function well, since he is forced to rise up every hundred years or so to crush another rebellion against it. The Final Empire ultimately ends with the death of Rashek, the Lord Ruler, almost 1000 years exactly after it was created. It is replaced with a representative monarchy led by Elend Venture.
Culture:
The culture of the Final Empire is said to be influenced heavily by the Khelenni culture that Rashek comes from.
Religion:
The religion of the Final Empire is a worship of the Lord Ruler as a deity. The Lord Ruler touched a sliver of the infinity at the well of ascension, causing him to become a god for a short period of time. This, combined with his abilities gained from the combination of Allomancy and Feruchemy make him appear quite god-like in nature. All other religions are squashed during the Lord Ruler's reign.
Class System:
The ordinary people are split into two groups: the Skaa and the Nobility.
- The Skaa are the working people, slaves in this case.
- The nobility are the 'slave owners'
The government officials are split into two divisions: the inquisitors and the obligators.
- The inquisitors serve as the priests of the Lord Ruler's religion, as well as a special ops force meant to hunt down skaa allomancers.
- The obligators serve various functions depending on which branch of the ministry they work in, including financing, taxation, and commerce.

Concept Driven Plan Editing from ALCA on Vimeo.
In Arch, concept and standards maps provide a key role in greatly simplifying the day-to-day process of aligning concept and standards elements to lesson plans and student work.
Watch the video above to discover how a teacher can quickly reflect on their planned instruction and the students' coursework modifying it as needed to match the plan's concept and standards maps. Discover how one can easily vet out how specific content vocabulary and skills are being applied to the planned activity while also having quick access to map-specific resources to include in that activity.
Day to day engagement of concept and standards mapping (at least in Arch) simplifies the process of alignment in very pragmatic ways across planning, student coursework, instructional strategies, and the assessments being used.

Oliver Wendell (Holmes) Olivia Dunham is a grey tabby with white paws. They are both weaned, eat dry food and prefer water over milk.
They run all over, chase us and are not bothered by the other cats. Unfortunately they don’t realized the danger of my power chair yet and keep running to and under it.

Hi,
I’ve been using Bitdefender the past year but the renewal is coming up and I want to switch products. I have simply been unable to solve accessing our corporate drives over VPN with the firewall enabled.
I know Kaspersky is highly regarded, but I am not going to support Russian products (not a fear of being spied on, just want to avoid supporting the economies of authoritarian states as much as possible (and it’s not completely possible)).
That has me looking at Sophos Home and currently have the trial installed. It doesn’t appear to have an actual firewall in the product? Should I have Windows Firewall enabled? Any other suggestions?
Also looking at ESET and Emsisoft. Thoughts or recommendations?

Facts About this Plant:
- Common Names: Spring Avens
- Synonyms: Stylypus vernus
- Lifespan: Perennial
- Zones: 4 - 7
- Type: Forb
- Bloom Time: March - May
- Status: Native
Geum vernum, or Spring Avens, is native to much of the eastern United States. It grows in moist open woods, as well as woodland edges, moist meadows, fields and yards. It blooms in early to mid spring, with small yellow flowers.
There are several species in this genus, nearly all of them are white, yellow or cream colored. This species belongs to those that are yellow. But it can be easily distinguished from the others, like Geum macrophyllum and Geum aleppicum, by its small yellow petals. All other species have petals that fill in around the center of the flower, but this species does not, and has very small yellow petals. See below for comparison.

Namco Bandai has released a slate of new screenshots showing off its upcoming RPG Tales of Zestiria, giving a glimpse at protagonists Alicia and Slay as they wander the game’s lush overworld.
Announced last month, Tales of Zestiria is the latest entry in Namco Bandai’s long-running “Tales of” RPG series, which saw recent North American releases in Tales of Xiliia and Tales of Graces f for the PlayStation 3. Namco Bandai recently detailed Zestiria‘s combat mechanics, revealing that enemy encounters will feature “an evolved form of the current linear-motion battle system.”

To help with your explanation, ask yourself the following questions: Paraphrasing is when you use your own words to express someone else's message or ideas.Place every quotation between quotation marks (" ") and copy the text word-for-word, including the text’s original punctuation and capital letters.For help with citing properly, see our guides on: Make sure to explain your quotations.This article will focus on how to integrate research into an MLA paper and how to correctly format in-text citations and entries in the Works Cited page.The first thing to understand about quoting and formatting is when it is needed in a paper.Documenting research in an MLA paper involves two basic steps: noting where research is used in each instance within a paper and entering a citation in the Works Cited Page.While finding and integrating information into a paper can sometimes be challenging—which is sometimes the point with these assignments—citing it correctly is not as difficult.This research evidence helps prove the paragraph’s claim.The writer would then unpack and explain the data or quote used, “connecting the dots” in order for the reader to fully understand the point the writer was making.The basic structure for any academic essay or research paper paragraph is to introduce a point or make a claim, support that point or claim with evidence, and then to explain more fully how the evidence supports the point being made.Research is most often used as the evidence in the academic essay paragraph.

Next Mets Free Agent Target: Jeff D’Amico
This offseason has been trying, to say the least, for most Mets fans. Yes, I get the whole idea of rebuilding, the constrained budget, the need for MLB to take over the organization, and that 2011 is a throwaway season. But it’s still disappointing to see that the “big” acquisitions of the winter are D.J. Carrasco, Ronny Paulino, Boof Bonser, and Chin-lung Hu. Seriously?
But there’s still another month to six weeks of potential activity before spring training opens; meaning, there could still be some “big” free agent signing coming up. Unfortunately, “big” means a cheap bullpen arm (Manny Delcarmen? Randy Flores?), a fourth outfielder (Fred Lewis? Delwyn Young?), and/or a high-risk, low-reward starting pitcher coming off injury (Jeff Francis? Chris Young?).
Wait … did I get that term confused? Isn’t it supposed to be “LOW-risk, high-reward” ?
Yeah, but when you’re talking about Chris Young and Jeff Francis, it’s the other way around.

’Twas then, the studious head or generous mind,
Follower of God, or friend of human-kind,
Poet or patriot, rose but to restore
The faith and moral Nature gave before;
Re-lumed her ancient light, not kindled new;
If not God’s image, yet His shadow drew:
Taught power’s due use to people and to kings,
Taught nor to slack, nor strain its tender strings,
The less, or greater, set so justly true,
That touching one must strike the other too;
Till jarring interests, of themselves create
The according music of a well-mixed state.
Such is the world’s great harmony, that springs
From order, union, full consent of things:
Where small and great, where weak and mighty, made
To serve, not suffer, strengthen, not invade;
More powerful each as needful to the rest,
And, in proportion as it blesses, blest;
Draw to one point, and to one centre bring
Beast, man, or angel, servant, lord, or king.
For forms of government let fools contest;
Whate’er is best administered is best:
For modes of faith let graceless zealots fight;
His can’t be wrong whose life is in the right:
In faith and hope the world will disagree,
But all mankind’s concern is charity:
All must be false that thwart this one great end;
And all of God, that bless mankind or mend.
Man, like the generous vine, supported lives;
The strength he gains is from the embrace he gives.
On their own axis as the planets run,
Yet make at once their circle round the sun;
So two consistent motions act the soul;
And one regards itself, and one the whole.
Thus God and Nature linked the general frame,
And bade self-love and social be the same.

You mean, it’s a video game?
Right, but it’s got a bit of a… I suppose an independent feel to it.
I just didn’t like the idea of the studio going into the retail business, or something like that, and making us into a game, and then handing over the keys to all our fans, if they were to buy it. I didn’t feel the fans deserved that, if they were really looking for something. So I just didn’t like it.
I don’t know, maybe you should go back and change the name. It sounds silly.
Yeah, it was the only choice.
It’s interesting that you feel that, because you didn’t have to make a choice at all. It came up in the writing of the game, and I had a hand in that.
Yeah, I’m sorry. I wasn’t aware of it.
And I’m sorry you had to change the name of the game just so you could stop having arguments with me. How many times have you done that in the last five years?
A hundred. Because then it gets ridiculous.
When is the next one going to be released?
I feel like there’s a great opportunity here to create all new music, and there’s an incredible amount of talented musicians here at Red Frog. But when would it be interesting to add to it? It’s interesting to me, and I’m happy to do it. But I can’t.
So, yeah; that’s it. I don’t know how many more conversations I can have about the studio, but I’m ready if they want me to go back.
Well, when’s the next game?
I don’t know, I’ll be in a hotel room. What can I say?
The New York Times recently posted an op-ed by former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani defending the NYPD’s controversial stop-and-frisk program, saying that NYPD officers should be given “special rights” to carry weapons while on duty.
When asked about the article in a radio interview, Giuliani responded with justifiable indignation that his name was used as a vehicle to sell the public a false narrative of police reform.

Hi,
I'm currently computing SIFT descriptors in Python on custum keypoints using the following code :
I'm wondering how the SIFT are computed. The original SIFT algorithm uses a 16x16 pixels neighbourhood around the center of the keypoint and split it into 4x4 area.
Do the SIFT computation on custom keypoints which diameter can be variable works the same way, splitting the area in 4*4 squares?

And for that reason alone the ex-England captain does not think Emery will succeed in the Premier League.
The Gunners have made their worst ever start to a top-flight season after their first two games.
An opening weekend defeat to champions Manchester City was followed up be a disheartening loss to Chelsea.
Arsenal dragged themselves back to 2-2 after conceding twice early on but were undone by Marcos Alonso’s winner.
And Adams showed no mercy in his assessment of the losses claiming that they were nothing more than ‘Wenger performances’.
The former Gunners skipper was saddened by the displays which lacked any ‘steel and resilience’.
“After Arsene, I was so excited with the prospect of a real change,” he said to The Sun.
“It was a great chance to do things differently but against City it was an Arsene Wenger performance — only more so.
“I felt so sad about that. Everyone knows what Arsenal have been missing — it’s that steel, that resilience.
"Whether Emery can coach it or not I don’t know yet, it is early days.
“But then away to Chelsea they were all over the place again — you’re not watching them thinking ‘there’s a change here’.
“It’s the same goalkeeper, the same style of play — it just feels the same, there’s no one rocking the boat.
“Chief executive Ivan Gazidis has gone for a ‘head coach’ because they don’t want someone with the power Arsene had.
“But they still want to appease the fans with a style of play like Arsene had.
“They don’t want to lose the ideology of the ‘beautiful game’ . . . whatever that is.

Amarante Yasmine March 10, 2021 Worksheets
Using pictures – While your child is still learning to recognize the letters of the alphabet, you can use pictures (or the actual item) to help them practice their sounds. Find pictures of a bird, a ball, a bat, a bath, a book, and so forth to practice the letter ’b’. Choose a letter for the day and encourage your child to find items that start with that letter around the house. Printable worksheets should have nice exercises for this as well.
Using the easy to use features that are available on your computer, you can create a worksheet that will aid you in learning purposes. Your students will enjoy a great deal having to learn using it. With the simple steps, you can definitely enhance the learning experiences of your student
Preschool printable worksheets can help you teach your child all about color in a fun and effective way. Here are a few of the reasons your preschooler needs to learn about color.
Play sound games – A ’Sound Treasure Hunt’ will have your child gathering items around the house all starting with the same letter – and of course, there has to be some ’treasure’ at the end of the game, so be prepared! ’I spy with my little eye’ is another great game if you use sounds instead of the names of letters, and it can be played anywhere.
The common worksheets used in schools are for writing letters and numbers and connect the dots activities. These are used to teach the students under kindergarten. Letter writing involves alphabets and words. These worksheets illustrate the different strokes that must be used to create a certain letter or number. Aside from this, such worksheets can also illustrate how to draw shapes, and distinguish them from one another.
Worksheets can be saved and reused from one lesson to the next. If a particular worksheet appeared to work better for the students it can be changed and reused for the next lesson, rather than starting over from scratch. Subject-specific graphics can be added to worksheets to make them, visually appealing.

My mother, the goddess of cliches,
was overly fond of repeating that
“There’s a place for everything, and
everything should be in its place.”
I must admit that, in addition to hating
her cliches and platitudes, I grew ever
less certain of my place in her world.
She was more than willing to assume
my utter lack of tidiness was just one more
sign of rebellion, one only slightly
more tolerable than her assumption
of my drug use, though she had me
a stoner, never acid or mescaline.
I tried, and repeatedly failed, to convince her
that things would be where they wished,
that such was their place, and she
just had to accept everything was
always and already in its place.

Kruy is a 40-year-old rice and vegetable farmer from Cambodia. She has two sons and two daughters, and enjoys doing the housework and watching movies.
Twenty years ago, Kruy had a serious ear infection. This infection caused the tympanic membrane, or the ear drum, in her left ear to perforate. For this reason, Kruy experiences discharge, tinnitus, and itchiness. She cannot hear clearly and has a difficult time communicating well with others.
Kruy traveled to our medical partner’s care center to receive treatment. On February 24th, she will undergo a myringoplasty procedure in her left ear. During this procedure, surgeons will close the perforation. Our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, is requesting $464 to fund this procedure. This covers medications, supplies, and inpatient care.

The Chris Christie “will he or won’t he” game has been running for months, but in the last week it’s reached a fever pitch. Pundits from every end of the conservative spectrum have been falling all over each other, trying desperately to decide if the New Jersey governor will make a White House bid. Dems are wondering if he can beat Obama, while the GOP has decided that he would be an instant frontrunner for the nomination. Sadly, no one seems to be asking why we’re supposed to be excited for a Christie presidency.
Right off the bat, we can acknowledge that Christie seems to generally despise unions. He’s focused multiple attacks on organized labor and, for the most part, managed to win those battles. This is no small feat in a state like New Jersey and, yes, it’s refreshing to see a prominent Republican willing to take on this issue in such an overt manner.
It’s a strong selling point for Christie, but it’s not enough.
Take a look at Ron Paul. He’d make a fantastic president, maybe one of the best this country has ever seen — if America were the only nation on Earth. Sorry, Ron, but Iran wants the bomb, and letting them have one is not a good way to ensure they don’t use it. Paul’s problem is that the rest of the planet exists, and his approach to the world stage paints him as a crackpot in the eyes of most Americans.
Like Paul, Governor Christie can’t run as “the guy who hates unions” and expect conservatives to ignore his failings regarding the rest of the issues facing the nation.
First, Christie has gone on record as an advocate for the passage of what he calls “common sense gun control” legislation. His state already requires gun owners to get a license to purchase rifles, shotguns and pistols. In order to get one, you have to take an application test and submit to multiple background checks. The purchase license expires in 90 days, at which point, if you want to buy again, you start the process over. This is already a bit more restrictive than most states’ gun licensing laws, since few states require purchase permits for anything other than handguns. Permits to carry (easily obtainable in many states) can be difficult to come by, with many residents complaining that police often refuse to issue them to anyone other than security professionals. One has to wonder, given New Jersey’s already ample gun control measures, what Christie thinks further “common sense” legislation would entail.
Second, Christie has bought in to the hokum of global warming/cooling/climate change. According to the governor, 90 percent of scientists agree on the topic, and he’s convinced. In an August interview, Christie announced that “climate change is real” and that “human activity plays a role in these changes.” He made no mention of the rapidly growing number of scientists that have spoken out against the notion of man-made global warming, preferring to stick with the politically correct line. Furthermore, he failed to acknowledge the basic truth that consensus and science are two different things. With the scandalous implosion of the Climatic Research Institute, most of the numbers used to promote climate change theory were proven bogus. A million scientists can agree on something, but if they don’t have reliable data to back up their assertion, it’s opinion and agenda, not science.
Finally, and most importantly, Christie has been suspiciously non-specific regarding his views on illegal immigration. He claims to want a “clear, understandable law that people can follow.” Well, we already have that: Don’t sneak into the country, and apply for citizenship via proper channels. We call it legal immigration. So, there’s obviously more to his position. In 2009, he told Politico that he believes in “having an orderly process — whatever that process is — for people to gain citizenship.”
On top of his lack of clarity regarding our current system, he’s repeatedly dodged the “amnesty” question, saying only that current illegals need to “go to the back of the line.” He’s failed to explain how “the back of the line” is any different than amnesty, if the person in question stays in the country while the queue moves forward.
Since we already have Herman Cain, a man who holds strong conservative credentials, has shown himself willing to answer questions clearly and who can match Christie’s pro-business, anti-union attitude, why are many on the right so excited about the New Jersey governor? He brings nothing to the table that we don’t currently enjoy, while carrying a mountain of baggage we don’t need.
Despite all of this, the Republican establishment seems to love him. If so, good for them. However, the rank and file is well aware that the “establishment” generously supplied us with both Bob Dole and John McCain. The “establishment” has shown itself willing, time and again, to throw its base under the bus.
If Chris Christie is the establishment candidate du jour, it may be reason enough for true conservatives to steer clear.

WASHINGTON D.C., USA: The US space agency, National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), has planned to send a mobile robot to the South Pole of the Moon to hunt for water.
Volatiles Investigating Polar Exploration Rover (VIPER), the mobile robot, is the size of a golf cart.
The robot will sample the Moon’s soil environments to search for evidence of water and ice and collect data for about 100 days to create the first global water resource maps of the Moon, the agency said on Friday.
Scientists consider the lunar poles as promising places to search for water ice, which could be used to provide oxygen for humans to breathe and hydrogen and oxygen for rocket fuel.
NASA had detected the presence of water ice in 2009 when it crashed a rocket into a large crater near the lunar south pole.
The agency believes that the Moon has millions of tons of water ice reservoirs.
Scientists hope that VIPER will help understand the location of the water and other resources on the lunar surface and aid in plans to extract it.

Exploring the interior of an Icelandic glacier with a small group tour.
Examining a map of Newfoundland, I noticed some dashed lines curving out over the Atlantic Ocean and paralleling the coast. One of these lines led out from the remote port of Burgeo, on the south coast, and looped along the coastline, stopping at a few tiny and isolated communities. I wanted to experience one of these outports, which are connected to the rest of Newfoundland only by a small ferry, so we made plans to visit the village of Francois in the middle of February.
