On 21 October, 2016, Imbuto Foundation and Mohammed VI Foundation for Sustainable Development signed an agreement of cooperation. The two foundations have established a new partnership based on their common interests in Health, Education, and Economic Empowerment for their citizens. The signing was witnessed by the King Mohammed VI of Morocco, His Excellency President Paul Kagame, and Her Excellency the First Lady Mrs. Jeannette Kagame, Chairperson of Imbuto Foundation.
Following the signing which was accompanied by a donation of 1 million Euro, a technical committee will plan the best way forward to implement the projects developed.
Everywhere the Skytrain goes, old buildings are torn down, and new highrises go up. The idea of the various city planners seems to be that people who live next to the line will take public transit rather than using their cars. This is a myth, of course, but in any case, land values rise, and developers move in. Behind this fence Bosa Corp will be erecting at least one, and possibly two highrises, with, as they say, retail space available. On this site there used to be a Safeway, and about half of the Burquitlam Plaza, with small stores, a gas station, and a parking lot. Is it progress? Somehow, it doesn't seem like it.
A small gathering of people attended a retirement party for Peggy Smith at TP Country Club Wednesday evening.
Smith is the former Director of the Cullman Economic Development Agency (CEDA).
She spent a few years in that role mainly attracting a little industrial development and economic growth into Cullman. She also spent some time mentoring Dale Greer who is now the Director.
This retirement party was a simple, intimate get together with a few friends and family members.
Somehow though, a handful of random folks heard about Peggy’s going away party. They decided to stop by and pay their respects. This group included:
• The entire Cullman City Council
• Most of Cullman’s legislative delegation
• U.S. Congressman Robert Aderholt
• The bulk of the Cullman Area Chamber of Commerce
• All personnel from the Cullman Economic Development Agency
• Several dozens top business, civic, educational & political leaders from around Cullman (and the State of Alabama).
There was some food served along with a few cool summer beverages. The party lasted a couple of hours. The gathering was primarily a chance for a few people who worked with Peggy at CEDA to bid her a gracious retirement farewell.
And except for a few people who insisted on getting up and giving speeches, making toasts, presenting gifts, and overwhelming the humble, Taoist master Smith, the gathering remained as she hoped it would: calm, intimate and quiet with a minimum of accolades directed at her.

What qualification you need to be a development worker?
To be a development worker all you need is to learn "Psychological Guerilla Warfare" to play with the mind of the target community and "Yoga" to relax the mind set up of yourself.

Minolta x700, Canon AE-1, failed development. When you learn, you learn! Sharp magenta coloration due to low temperature in development, causing emulsion to not fully degrade. Highlights and shadows have extreme editing to save any detail left on film. It was a beautiful day on the dunes, nonetheless.
