There’s nothing like a room with a view, is there? The vista here is of an old building in the City of Prague that boasts some beautiful but fading frescoes. But what caught my eye was the guy doing some essential (?) maintenance on the upper floor. I didn’t stop long enough to check if he stepped back to admire his handiwork, but I’m hoping he got called in for a tea break. That’s your modern labourer for you – why bother with a ladder when it looks like rain?
This image depicts the balance needed between student reading ability, the level of course materials, and the style of the teacher/literacy demands of the class. In order to find a match between the three, teachers can use a variety of assessments.
Assessment of Learning, Assessment as Learning, and Assessment for Learning are not defined by what the student does, but are defined by how the teacher uses the data.

Based on the results of the 2015 Florida red drum stock assessment, the Commission may want to consider lowering the bag limit in the Northeast management zone to 1 fish per person per day. Staff would also like to gather additional information about angler preferences for this fishery in the panhandle and the rest of the Northwest management zone.
Therefore, staff recommend gathering additional public input regarding stakeholder observations and concerns related to the red drum fishery, as well as how they would like to see this fishery managed before making any management recommendations.
Staff would also like to take this opportunity to try some new and potentially innovative ways to gather feedback from private anglers. In addition to on-line and directed surveys, staff would attend fishing club meetings and engage other groups of private anglers, particularly in the northern portions of the state. This would be done in conjunction with ongoing efforts to communicate with guide organizations and recreational fishing advocacy groups in order to get input from as broad of a cross-section of the recreational angling community as possible.
If approved and directed, staff will distribute the results of the assessment, gather additional public feedback from red drum anglers, and return to the Commission with a management recommendation in June.

Serengeti National Park.
Elephants possess unique glands, the temporal glands, under the skin between the eye and the ear canal on either side of the head. There is a single duct from each gland onto the surface of the skin.
This gland produces a dark oily fluid, which may be seen exuding from the gland periodically. Both male and female Loxodonta may show fluid draining from the temporal glands associated with excitement or apprehension.
The temporal gland probably plays a role in olfactory communication; elephants rub the gland on trees and branches.
It is possible that the scent of the temporal gland secretions allows recognition of individual elephants, and perhaps assessment of reproductive state

Sitting amid the beautiful Carlton Gardens, the Royal Exhibition Building is a World Heritage Site-listed building at the north-eastern edge of Melbourne’s central business district.
The interior is heavily decorated in true Victorian style. Beaneath its central dome it features pendentives of Hercules and Venus (pictured) Mercury and Mars; lunettes of allegorical symbolism including one of the "Arts Applied to Peace" (pictured); and profuse hand stencilled decoration, all of which has all be painstakingly restored in recent years.
The Royal Exhibition Building was designed by the architect Joseph Reed, who also designed the Melbourne Town Hall and the State Library of Victoria. According to the architect, the design was inspired by many different sources. The dome was modeled on the Florence Cathedral, while the main pavilions were influenced by the style of Rundbogenstil and several buildings from Normandy, Caen and Paris.
The foundation stone was laid by the then Victorian governor George Bowen on 19 February 1879 and it was completed in 1880, ready for the Melbourne International Exhibition. The building consisted of a Great Hall of over 12,000 square metres and many temporary annexes. In the 1880s, the building hosted two major International Exhibitions; the Melbourne International Exhibition in 1880 and the Melbourne Centennial Exhibition in 1888 to celebrate a century of European settlement in Australia. The most significant event to occur in the Exhibition Building was the opening of the first Parliament of Australia on 9 May 1901, following the inauguration of the Commonwealth of Australia on 1 January. After the official opening, the federal government moved to the Victorian State Parliament House, while the Victorian government moved to the Exhibition Building for the next 26 years. On 3 September, the Australian National Flag was flown at Royal Exhibition Building for the first time. On that day Prime Minister Edmund Barton announced the winners of a competition to design a flag for Australia. The buildings were a venue for the 1956 Summer Olympics, hosting the basketball, weightlifting, wrestling, and the fencing part of the modern pentathlon competitions. As it decayed, it became known derogatively by locals as The White Elephant in the 1940s and by the 1950s, like many buildings in Melbourne of that time it was earmarked for replacement by office blocks. In 1948, members of the Melbourne City Council put this to the vote and it was narrowly decided not to demolish the building. The wing of the building which once housed Melbourne's aquarium burnt down in 1953. During the 1940s and 1950s, the building remained a venue for regular weekly dances. Over some decades of this period it also held boat shows, automobile shows and other regular home and building industry shows. It was also used during the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s for State High School Matriculation and for the Victorian Certificate of Education examinations, among its various other purposes. Nevertheless, the grand ballroom was demolished in 1979, leaving the main structure in place along with annexes constructed in the 1960s and 1970s. Following the demolition of the grand ballroom, there was a public outcry which prevented the main building from also being demolished.
During a visit to Victoria in 1984, Princess Alexandra (Queen Elizabeth II's cousin) bestowed the royal title on the building and it has been referred to as the Royal Exhibition Building ever since. This title, and the first conservation assessment of the building undertaken by Alan Willingham, sparked a restoration of the interiors of the building in the late 1980s and 1990s, and the construction of a mirror glass annexe (which was later demolished). In 1996, the then Premier of Victoria, Jeff Kennett, proposed the location and construction of Melbourne's State Museum on the adjacent site. Temporary annexes built in the 1960s were removed and in 1997 and 1998, the exterior of the building was progressively restored.
On 1 July 2004, the Royal Exhibition Building and Carlton Gardens was granted listing as a World Heritage Site, the first building in Australia to be granted this status. The heritage listing states that "The Royal Exhibition Building is the only major extant nineteenth century exhibition building in Australia. It is one of the few major nineteenth century exhibition buildings to survive worldwide."

Mount Batulao. Literally, “Ilaw sa Bato”. Take a closer look at this odd-looking mountain in Nasugbu Batangas and see the entirety of Batangas province..,Edited October 27, 2015
History tells us that in the beginning there were only the Sea and the rivers where people sought passage for travel, interaction with other riverside inhabitants exchanging foods gathered from inland forest products.
The mountain tops, the hillsides and the valleys were all covered with Trees and verdant green jungle moss covering, until mankind started forming trails of passage on foot into the wilderness.. On this trail, rain water found a natural path and meandered its way to the sea. It flowed and dug deeper where the soil is soft and goes shallow where granite stones and solid boulders slowed them down momentarily, then found an opening crack and continued on there way to the sea. And the shaping up process moves farther hundred of thousand years to the modern times.
Most Mountain tops today are bare with only Cogon and Talahib grasses keeping the top soil intact. The trail that Filipinos and Foreign Tourists walk on becomes a convenient path sooner for the rain to follow, eroding and digging into the soil. Here, the need for scientific and professsional assessment of the mountain strata from its soil surface to what follow next is in order.
The Mountain Range contested by Agusan del Norte and Misamis Oriental with one of its extended hillsides covered with Cogon and Talahib were planted with Coconut and Corn after the 2nd World War with less production success. About 15 years ago the old crops were replaced with grafted Carabao mangoes together with the endemic native mangoes in the area. Today, Carmen town on the Agusan del Norte side is well on the way of becoming the Mango producing King in this part of Northern Mindanao. - wilfredosrb

For over a decade, CIAT has tested agronomic and soil management practices in Western Kenya. From minimum tillage to integrated soil fertility management, these trials are the most comprehensive picture of tropical soil health that we have in Kenya. They show-case changes in soil fertility and health, which take time to develop, hence the importance of these long-term trails. CIAT’s “Climate-smart soil protection and rehabilitation in Benin, Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, India and Kenya” project is implemented in collaboration with the Kenya Agriculture and Livestock Research Organization (KALRO); GOPA and implementing partners including PAFID, Welthungerhilfe and WOCAT - University of Bern. It is supported by the German Society for International Cooperation (GIZ) and the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ).
