During and after the war bus companies struggled to meet demands for increasing passenger transport. More capacity was urgently needed and with new buses scarce SMT re-bodied old single deckers to double deck. A batch of elderly AEC Regal coaches new in 1934 were rebuilt by Alexanders as 53 seat Regents. Around 20 of these appeared as Regents and a further 18 Leyland Tigers to TD5 standard. Here at St Andrew Square in 1949 is BB16A ready to depart for Birkenside. Behind is BB24G a new Regent with similar 'angular' bodywork departing for Rosewell. 'A' being the code for Edinburgh depot and 'G' the code for Dalkeith.
At the time the standard SMT livery was blue and cream (changed to green and cream shortly after this scene).
Note the advert for Hendry's. Edinburgh had numerous soft drink manufacturers, one of the oldest and largest was owned by John Hendry of Abbey Street, dating from 1890 and later moving their factory to Whyte Place, Lower London Road. Their leading brand was 'double top american cola' such was their success that the SCWS (Co-op) acquired them but retained the names and the Whyte Place factory for many years afterwards.

Africa has the world’s largest proportion of poor and hungry people, but the lowest rate of coverage by social protection programs. Demand for social protection is growing in Africa, reflecting faster economic growth, rapid urbanization, and more open and pluralistic societies. In the 2014 Malabo Declaration, African leaders called for integrating social protection with measures to increase agricultural productivity to help achieve the goal of ending hunger by 2025.
The 2017–2018 Annual Trends and Outlook Report: Boosting Growth to End Hunger by 2025—The Role of Social Protection takes an in-depth look at the state of social protection in Africa. Seminar speakers will discuss findings and recommendations on successful implementation, filling knowledge gaps, and policy implications for the design and roll-out of social protection programs in Africa.
The report is produced by the Regional Strategic Analysis and Knowledge Support System, a program that provides data and analyses to inform the Comprehensive Africa Agriculture Development Programme (CAADP). ReSaKSS is supported by United States Agency for International Development and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

Dungog Common May 2020
Native cool-season short-lived perennial erect, sparsely-tufted grass to 80 cm tall. Flowerheads are dense contracted panicles (6-22 cm long). Spikelets have 1 floret with an awn 6-33 mm long that arises near the apex of the lemma and varies from almost straight to curved, bent and twisted. The lemma is 2.5-4 mm long and shorter than the glumes. Flowers from late winter to summer. Found in native and naturalised pastures, woodlands and forests; often associated with rocky outcrops. Native biodiversity. Moderately drought tolerant and highly frost tolerant. Seedling recruitment can be high in wet seasons. A minor component of many pastures; occasionally numerous. Of low feed value as it is usually a stemmy plant that produces little leaf. However, it does provide green feed during late winter to early spring when many other species are frosted. Performs well under low to moderate set stocking and rotational grazing. Responds to increased soil fertility, but fertilising for its increased production is not economic and introduced species are likely to then outcompete it.

Amidst increased geopolitical tensions, there has been growing concern that terrorist groups, lone wolves or rogue nations might use biological weapons, or any type of CBRN weapon. International reports and studies provide good reason to believe that threats from a deliberate use of CBRN weapons are no longer inconceivable: international counter-terrorism experts consider a possible CBRN weapon attack possible.
Countries in Europe are gradually raising their level of preparedness for the possible event of a CBRN incident that could become a national security problem. The European Commission released in October 2017 its Action Plan to enhance preparedness against CBRN security risks as part of its comprehensive anti-terrorism package.
Sufficient and timely preparedness are essential and should be considered a high priority for the European Union. Europe can improve its coordination and learn best practices from international organisations such as the World Health Organization (WHO) and past experiences in the United States of America.
This seminar provides a platform for a timely discussion and opportunity to exchange views between MEPs, European and international experts and relevant stakeholders, with the aim of taking further European political actions and raise awareness inside the EU institutions and beyond. And hopefully it can work out a satisfactory answer to the main question: is Europe sufficiently prepared?

Diversification of household income sources though small livestock activities
An important part of the ‘Making a Living from Livestock’ project involves strengthening of livestock commodity associations such as LCDs and ISALS. Bambelelani Goat group has been a beneficiary of the project in this aspect. Established in 2014, the 17-member goat group has grown from humble beginnings to operating a successful enterprise through their lending and savings. Through the project they have been assisted with trainings in goat husbandry, veterinary services for their goats, as well as financial management skills that have proved crucial in helping them to sustain their successful business for the past 3 years.

Status: Resident, numbers increase in September due to birds released for hunting.
Conservation Concern: Green-listed in Ireland. The European population is considered to be Secure.
Identification: A large game bird with long legs and long barred tail. Males and females are very different. The males are distinctive with a bottle green head, with red fleshy head sides. The white collar is only present on the male and may not be present if you happen to see the least common race of the two races present in Ireland. Males are reddish brown and have a very long tail, upperparts which are spotted white and finely marked underparts. Females are very different, they are buff- brown with angular spots on the flanks and fine angular markings on the upperparts, the long tail is a give away.
Similar Species: None in Ireland.
Call: Most often heard is the hoarse alarm call when the bird is flushed, which decreases in strength as the bird flies off.
Diet: Eats a variety of foods gleaned from the ground including grain, seeds, green shoots and invertebrates.
Breeding: Nests on the ground. An introduced species from Asia, first introduced in the 16th century. Two races have been introduced to Ireland, but the race from China with its white neck ring has dominated. A game bird, it is raised in large numbers and released into woodland to be shot soon afterwards. Many birds have dispersed far from their release sights and can be found in woodland, farmland, large gardens and parks, where they have become 'wild'. Likes dense cover and can flush up at the last moment when nearly under foot. Roosts in trees. Widespread in Ireland but scarce or absent from parts of the west coast.
Wintering: Some birds may move from higher altitudes, but generally resident.
Where to See: Not a difficult species to see. Often seen in fields along roads.

Fodder Production
51 year old Moses Msinanga cannot recall the last time he lost a beast to ill-health or malnutrition. His cattle are healthy and well –fed throughout the year regardless of season. His secret lies in producing fodder as supplementary feed for his cattle. Introduced to him in 2014, by the project, Msinanga is one of the many farmers that have seen a significant change in their livestock productivity, since they received seed and training from the project.

This is a seismograph station record from the Norris Museum in Yellowstone, Wyoming. The increase in noise at the bottom of the graph (click on the image to zoom in) is a major eruption of Steamboat Geyser. The eruption started at 3:53 PM on 30 October 2019.
Steamboat is the world's tallest geyser. Its eruptions are normally unpredictable - it can go years or even decades without erupting. Steamboat entered an exciting active phase in spring 2018. From fall to the end of 2018, Steamboat continued to erupt about once every 5 to 9 days. 2018 set the record for the most active year ever, with 32 eruptions. 2019 broke that record - this is the 42nd eruption of Steamboat Geyser this year. In January 2019, intervals (= eruption start to eruption start) were about 9 to 11.5 days. In February 2019, intervals were about 7 to 9.5 days. March 2019 intervals were about 6 to 8 days. In April 2019, intervals were 14 days and 17 days. Longer intervals between Steamboat eruptions are known to occur during "disturbances" at Norris Geyser Basin (this also happened in summer 2018). In May 2019, after the disturbance ended, intervals were 7 days, 5 days, 5.5 days, 6.8 days, 7 days, and 5 days. In June 2019, intervals were 5 days, 5.5 days, 3 days, 3.4 days, 4.5 days, and 5.5 days. ~Three day intervals are remarkably short for Steamboat Geyser. In July 2019, intervals were 5 days, 6.75 days, 7.5 days, 5.8, and ~6.25 days. In August 2019, intervals were 13.6 days, 7.6 days, and 6.9 days. The two week long interval in August was due to another Norris Basin disturbance. In September 2019, intervals were ~6.7 days, 8.8 days, ~6.1 days, ~7.3 days, and ~6.3 days. In October 2019, intervals were ~6.3 days, 8.3 days, 6.4 days, and 8.1 days.

~Heritage conservation II - Increase in extent and scale of urban conservation: conservation of whole cultural and historic districts (Done By: Peh Chu Ming)
What does this picture show?
The Hong Kong Street - A stretch of shophouses in a modernistic and highly-developed setting
Since independence from the 1960s to the 1970s, urban conservation taking the forms of heritage preservation and conservation was accorded little attention as development was conferred priority as a means to propel Singapore to the glorious heights of economic prosperity and societal stability. It was only until the 1980s when things took a change.
The primary concern in Singapore’s planning agenda – the need to recover heritage and conserve cultural and historic icons – is clearly depicted in this picture. The preservation of historic districts such as the stretch of shophouses shown above is believed to be a means to safeguard ‘the richness of the cityscape’. Such conservation efforts have shown to be on the ascend in terms of its predominance in Singapore’s land use planning as more and more cultural and historic district are conserved and woven into the fabric of Singapore’s highly modernistic Central Business District. From the times of the 1970s to the 1980s and 1990s, conservation efforts grew from the preservation of individual landmarks to a ‘more concerted effort to conserve whole cultural streets’ and also the inclusion of ‘repositories of heritage’. Indeed, such conservation efforts are exemplifications of how the pattern of land use in Singapore has changed as seen in the growing need for the collective conservation and management of heritage sites.
As Singapore becomes more and more developed, making forays into the tertiary industry, indeed, efforts for urban conservation can now be delegated a position of greater importance. In fact, the government seeks to incorporate historical buildings and cultural districts into its various commercial and transport activities. For example, Boat Quay, previously used as a hub for trading establishments, has been revitalized as a riverside dining and entertainment street that still retains many of its architectural and historic features.
However, the big question now is: Does the conservation of the material features of various historic and cultural sites really qualify as heritage conservation? While the architectural facades of such cultural icons are preserved, the activities and lifestyles of users and inhabitants have changed. This raises questions about the ‘authenticity’ of the conservation of heritage.
However, I presume that conservation efforts like this (retaining of architectural features) will nevertheless become the spotlight of Singapore’s urban conservation efforts in the years to come. While the conservation of activities and lifestyles taking place back then are indeed ‘truer’ forms of heritage conservation for it retains the ‘authenticity’ of Singapore’s heritage, it is not economically viable as retrogression is no longer desirable in the light of the 21st century. A balance needs to be strike between urban conservation and economic gains and developments so that progress is not negated. Hence, I presume that the best solution as of now is to incorporate CERTAIN elements of historic and cultural sites (for e.g. the architectures) into the commercial activities taking place now and I believe that such conservation efforts will take on a much much more visible profile in the various calls for urban conservation in the coming years!
