U.S. Department of Agriculture USDA Rural Development RD Under Secretary Xochitl Torres Small departs from Siesta Shores Water Control and Improvement District facility, where it was announced that the USDA is investing $102 million to expand access to housing and water infrastructure for socially disadvantaged rural people who live and work in 45 states and American Samoa, during a visit to Siesta Shores and Falcon Lake in Zapata Co., TX, on Dec 16, 2022. The 263 projects in which USDA invests will create economic opportunities and improve the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in rural America.
The investments are part of the Biden-Harris Administration’s commitment to ensure that people living in rural America have equitable access to the infrastructure and economic opportunities they deserve.
“USDA invests in rural America because we know a strong community is rooted in its people,” Torres Small said. “Thanks to the leadership of President Biden, Vice President Harris, and Agriculture Secretary Vilsack, USDA can help invest in opportunity and prosperity for all people, regardless of background or financial status, who make up the character and personality of our great country’s rural lands.”
The Siesta Shores Water Control and Improvement District in Zapata County, Texas, receives a $1 million Emergency Community Water Assistance Grant to purchase a filter upgrade along with new raw water pumps and electrical wiring. It also will install six-inch raw water piping and fittings to reach the deeper parts of the community’s water source, Falcon Lake.
These investments are in addition to the recent expansion of the Rural Partners Network (RPN), which is central to President Biden’s commitment to ensure all rural people can benefit from federal resources. Led by USDA with support from more than 20 federal agencies and commissions, RPN is part of an all-of-government strategy to champion rural people and places, including Native American communities.
These programs are Water and Waste Disposal Grants to Alleviate Health Risks on Tribal Lands and Colonias, Appalachian Regional Commission Grants, Delta Health Care Grants, Socially Disadvantaged Groups Grants, Housing Preservation Grants, Rural Community Development Initiative Grants, Tribal College Initiative Grants, Emergency Community Water Assistance Grants, Rural and Native Alaskan Village Grants, Water and Waste Disposal Loans and Grants and Community Facilities Disaster Grant Program.

I thought you might like to see what North Hertfordshire District Council considers to be good planning and design.
Where once there were nine three-bedroomed family-sized homes with mature gardens, 30 garages available to rent (in an area where on-road parking is severely restricted) and the smallest builder's yard in the universe, there are now 78 apartments and houses. The houses in the photo above are some of the so-called "social housing". The rest of the development is behind these houses.
In today’s day and age, many businesses are now creating their own Android app and in fact, there are lots of reasons why you should invest in this kind of app. However, if your business is not using any app it means you’re losing the majority of your customers.
On the other hand, most business owners prefer to develop their app on Android platform simply because Android apps will be able to increase their revenues as well as attain great business growth.
Android is an open source and free platform. It also offers complete software stack such as key mobile applications, operating system, and middleware. Aside from its performance, speed, and scalability, Android application development is also beneficial for your business.
Either way, let us now discuss the advantages of Android application development.
1. Low Investment Higher Return on Investment or ROI
As what we have mentioned a while ago, Android is a free and open source platform. Not only that, the SDK or software development kit that is being used is also free. However, you can also consider hiring an Android app development company, because the majority of these companies provide services at a very affordable price.
The development cost, on the other hand, is divided into three categories, development, testing, as well as deployment. For application distribution, Android apps development company is required to pay a registration. After which, they can now build and run the app on their devices, as a result, you will be able to increased interaction between users. In the end, users will get an interactive and excellent Android app while you as the business owner will acquire higher ROI.
2. Easy Customization
The Android platform provides versatility by means of easy customization preferences which is useful in rapid Android app development, as a result, Android app developers are allowed to develop apps with various functionalities. Whether it’s a web application integration or multifaceted technical customization, this platform can offer plenty of space for implementing customizations.
Most importantly, this platform is specifically designed to handle the changing requirements of every business. Either way, it provides flexibility to incorporate data management functions, as well as multimedia and communication tools that have easy updates.
3. Several Sales Channels
Unlike other platforms that are used in developing mobile apps, Android apps can be deployed in various ways. You don’t have to rely on just a particular market to hand out your applications. In addition to using other third-party application marketplaces and Google Play Store, as the app owner, you are allowed to make your own sales and distribution channels.
You build and publish it. On the other hand, with the advertising strategy, you will be able to reach thousands or even millions of users by means of multiple channels.
4. Easy to Take on
The majority of Android applications are written on Java that pulls a rich collection of libraries. Android aApp developers are very familiar with this programming language, as a result, they will be able to build apps with ease. As a matter of fact, it is stated in a certain survey, that Java professionals find that writing in the said programming language is easier compared to other programming languages.
5. Open Source
The best thing about Android community is that offers open source platform as well as the best technology platform. It also offers an opportunity for the upcoming growths of Android application development. For this reason, the majority of wireless operators and handset manufacturers get fascinated by the Android platform. This results in a faster development of phones that are Android based and better chances for developers.
Conclusion:
Are you looking for an easy way on how to pull Android app development benefits for your enterprise or business, but unluckily you don’t know where to begin? If so, we hope this article will help you a lot as well as enlighten your mind how great an Android application development is.

This public fórum, held on 23 April 2018 in Maputo, shared the results of the report on the business landscape for Mozambican manufacturing firms.
The event shed light on the current challenges faced by micro-, small- and medium-sized firms in the country’s manufacturing sector — and how policy can tackle these issues to allow firms to thrive. Special attention was paid to the business environment in which these enterprises operate.
POST CMS/EMS DEVELOPMENT / SMALL GROUP RESEARCH AND SELMS DEVELOPMENT Influenced by OLPC, focusing on independent learning, I composed a 6000 book Calibre based library (over hundreds of hours) in conjunction with theCenterofthenet.com to teach small groups of parents and students. This online based EMS progressed to customized tablets and eventually about 50 workstations.. Initially adaptation was difficult, requiring the same digital immigrant orientation as previously experienced in the US in 1995, Eastern Germany 96/97 and Chinese classrooms 09+. Customized Ubuntu based systems, containing the library and other supportive apps & utilities were developed, targeting early adaptation starting with children 5-7 with parental support for lifelong learning. Workstations enhanced across the curriculum ESL, with a strong emphasis on self-learning. Initially OneNote based notebooks were utilized, which due to local censorship/scalability issues, evolved into an open source self-created Cherry Tree based SELMS (Self Learning Management System). Manjaro replaced Ubuntu for easier rolling updates and administration. Every single skill I have learned was required to get to this point. You cannot spell teach without “TECH” (not my quote).
