In all, the Bank of Abyssinia lent nearly $9 million of their own funds to agrobusinesses thanks to USAID guarantees. Before USAID's guarantee, it was estimated that agriculture received just 16 percent of total available credit in Ethiopia – mostly from government-owned banks. By mobilizing local financing for agriculture USAID is working to improve Ethiopia's capacity to produce enough food for its people.

Reflection test using the new internal Structure Synth raytracer. (Rendering time: 2.4s)
I've started working on a simple built-in raytracer in Structure Synth, both for providing fast previews in the GUI, and for people who are intimidated by the somewhat complex template export.
So far it is pretty standard stuff: a single-threaded, Phong shaded based raytracer which uses the Fast Voxel Traversel method to accelerate ray-primitive intersection tests. As of now it supports reflections, transparency, shadows (the hard and ugly type), and adaptive anti-alias. I've also implemented a simple Ambient Occlusion scheme.

Muscular Development article about me from August, 1985. I was approached by the magazine after my appearance in the 1983 amateur Mr. World contest, where I won people's choice, first place and judge's choice, fifth place. The photos for the article were shot at the old City Gym owned by Diego in DTLA, now the present location of Staples Center. Diego hung photos of me on the walls of the City Gym as well.
Five new blocks of flats have been built on the east side of the village. Three in the usual bleak architecture on the right are hardly distinguishable from the older ones. But on the left with the red brick buildings, the architects dared more. Such buildings are naturally more concerned with costs and yield than with architecture. Seen from Lutzenberg, coordinates on the center of the photo. Switzerland, August 2, 2020.

I never knew that the dead-looking tree in the house we recently moved in was a fig tree. Imagine how excited I was to find out it could give fruits. it even never blossomed!
Because of recent news relating to the development [re-development] of Cherrywood in the South of County Dublin I decided to see if I had any relevant photograph but the earliest usable photographs were taken in July 2013. I do know that I did photograph the area in 2010 and possibly in 2009 but I cannot locate the original photographs.
This photograph was taken in 2013 but nothing really changed between 2010 and 2013,
Back in 2010 I made the following comment online:
“The New Luas Extension Has Been Criticised By Commuters Who Cannot Park.”
“When it comes to transport in Dublin there have been two success stories in recent years. The DublinBike scheme is one and the other is the Luas tram system. Last Monday was a beautiful sunny day and after photographing the Dublin Marathon I decided that it would be a good idea to get the Luas to Cherrywood to see if I could take a few photographs. It was explained to me, by a gentleman that I met on the tram, that the land is now tied up in NAMA and as a result it cannot be developed as a park and ride facility. Commuters were turned away from the new Cherrywood terminus on opening day as there were no parking facilities available.”
“Cherrywood is one of Dublin's newest suburbs and as can be seen from my photographs it is partly developed and there are some very large empty spaces and believe it or not there is a shortage of parking spaces. Some time ago a decision was made to extend the Sandyford (Green) Luas line to Cherrywood and construction started in February 2007 and the line became operational this month (October 2010) There are now two Luas stops in Cherrywood: Cherrywood and the terminus, Brides Glen.”
I would suggest that the tram stop at Laughanstown could be described as being in the area.
FRIDAY 10 FEB 2016:
Hines Ireland has officially started work on the first key phase of construction at Cherrywood in South County Dublin. If all goes well up to 30,000 people will live at Cherrywood by early in the next decade meaning that it will be as large as Bray and even larger than a town such as Athlone.
Brian Moran said, “The upfront delivery of the roads, cycle and pedestrian network and three wonderful parks is a pivotal moment for the Cherrywood project. These will be the green lungs for this modern new town and this not only strikes the right environmental note for Cherrywood to come but it also underpins our commitment to expedite the delivery of the 4,000 modern new homes within the Hines land holding."
"We are acutely aware of the enormous public demand for new housing stock and the submission of planning for the new €875 million Cherrywood Town Centre in the coming months will include 1300 new smart design apartments as part of this highly ambitious plan.”
In 2014, Hines acquired Cherrywood in South Dublin. The two components of this investment include an existing 52,000-square-meter office park and a 390-acre master-planned development site. The Cherrywood site has been acquired with approval for the construction of a new, retail-led mixed-use town center; up to 3,800 apartments and houses; and zoning capacity to expand the second largest office park in Dublin to three times its current size.
Mr. Moran is the Senior Managing Director responsible for developing Hines’ Ireland projects. He established the Hines platform in Ireland which currently has more than €1.2 billion of retail, office and residential assets under management, in addition to a major development pipeline which includes an additional €500 million of retail development and over 4,000 residential units. He rejoined the firm in 2011 having previously worked with Hines in Russia in the 1990's.
