The next generation of Afghan farmers is learning modern farming techniques at the new Helmand Agriculture High School in Lashkar Gah. Their teacher, Mahmood, says that Afghanistan is still an agriculturally backward country and that farmers need a reliable income. “We are still mainly subsistence farmers, and need to grow food for our families”
Afghanistan currently produces 90% of the world’s opium, the key ingredient in heroin. The UK-led Provincial Reconstruction Team in Helmand Province is helping Afghanistan to tackle the country’s illegal drugs trade which destroys lives around the world.
At this training college, young Afghan farmers are learning to grow legal crops that can give them an alternative income to opium. Established farmers are destroying poppy fields so they can use the land to grow wheat and other crops from subsidised seeds.
This work is seeing results - poppy cultivation in Helmand is falling as farmers start to grow new crops. To curtail the traffickers, Afghanistan’s counter narcotics police play a crucial role finding and destroying smuggled drugs before they leave the country.

Kairouan is the 4th Holy City of Islam - a very important city to the Muslim religion.
From Wikipedia -
The most important mosque in the city is the Great Mosque of Sidi-Uqba. Seven pilgrimages to this mosque is considered the equivalent of one pilgrimage to Mecca. After its establishment, Kairouan became an Islamic and Qur'anic learning center in North Africa. An article by Professor Kwesi Prah describes how during the medieval period, Kairouan was considered the third holiest city in Islam after Mecca and Medina.

These are the three levels of learning I try to address in my workshops on Design Management across Europe.
What I find most important is that beyond 'content learning' the levels of 'process' and 'social' are key levels for Design Managers who stand out.
The challenge for quite a few groups with this approach is to accept Social Media platforms like Ning as part of the experience.
In the end however the whole learning experience is being captured on one central hub and gives access to insights long after the classes have been finished.

Carreg fedd gyda arysgrif Lladin
www.ucl.ac.uk/archaeology/cisp/database/stone/slian_1.html
Cyfnod diddorol iawn yn hanes Cymru a Prydain yw cyfnod y Brythoniaid ac os ewch chi i bentre` Silian ar bwys Llanbedr Pont Steffan i weld yr eglwys yno, `welwch chi, tu fa`s ac i`r dde o brif fynedfa`r adeilad a cwpl o lathenni rownd cornel yr eglwys marce pum troedfedd o`r llawr a wedi`i gosod yn y wal, hen garreg fedd. Wrth godi`r eglwys canrifoedd yn ôl daeth y gweithwyr o hyd i`r garreg fedd a`i rhoi yn wal yr eglwys.
Mae ysgolheigion wedi dyddio`r garreg rhwng y 7fed a`r 9fed ganrif (The Early Christian Monuments of Wales, V. E. Nash-Williams. Gwasg Prifysgol Cymru 1950). Ar y garreg mae dau air Lladin SILBANDWS IACIT. Yn ôl Yr Athro Kenneth Jackson yr enw yw `..... Silbānus (a Vulgar Latin form of Silvānus), .....` (Yr Athro Patrick Sims-Williams, The Celtic Inscriptions of Britain: Phonology and Chronology C. 400-1200. Publications of the Philological Society, 37. Tud. 14. Yn aml iawn y fformiwla o`dd `HIC IACIT X` hynny yw `(d)yma orwedda X` ond ambell waith o`dd dim `HIC` hynny yw dim [dyma], fel gyda`r garreg fedd yn wal eglwys pentre` Silian.
A grave stone with a Latin inscription
www.ucl.ac.uk/archaeology/cisp/database/stone/slian_1.html
An interesting period in Welsh and British hictory is the period of the Britons (the ancestors of the Welsh) and if you go to the village if Silian near Lampeter to see the church there, you`ll see, outside and to the right of the main entrance of the building and acouple of yadrs around the corner of the church about five feet from the ground and set into the wall, an old grave stone. When they built the church centruies ago the workers found a grave stone and they put it into the wall of the church.
Scholars have dated the stone to between the 7th and 9th centuries (The Early Christian Monuments of Wales, V. E. Nash-Williams. Gwasg Prifysgol Cymru 1950). On the stone there are two words in Latin SILBANDWS IACIT. According to Professor Kenneth Jackson the name is `..... Silbānus (a Vulgar Latin form of Silvānus), .....` (Professor Patrick Sims-Williams, The Celtic Inscriptions of Britain: Phonology and Chronology C. 400-1200. Publications of the Philological Society, 37. Tud. 14. Often the formular was `HIC IACIT X` in other words `here lies X` but sometimes there`s ni `HIC`, in other words no [here], as with the grave stone in the wall of the church in Silian.

The time for a Canada-wide early learning and child care system is now. Too many families in Canada lack access to affordable, inclusive, and high-quality child care. The global COVID-19 pandemic has also made it clear that without access to child care, parents – especially women – cannot fully participate in the economy. By building a Canada-wide early learning and child care system, the Government of Canada will make life more affordable for Canadian families and increase women’s participation in the workforce, while creating new jobs and driving strong economic growth as we recover from the pandemic.

I've learned that crocheting can be done in any position (even prone), unlike knitting.
I've learned that acrylic is really squeaky.
I've learned that I need to loosen up like crazy.
Ok, so learning to make bootcovers wasn't as 'quick' and 'easy' as I thought. To tell the truth, it took me three tries to get it right.
So I had already mocked up how to extend the shaft of the boot to knee-height and had that set aside. According to tutorials (I've linked the two most helpful ones on facebook recently), you pin the fabric in two even halves around the boot, cut that out, sew up the edges, and glue down. Sounds easy? Well I mean it is, but I not as easy as I thought.
The first time, I tried to do it with the heel as part of the boot. I couldn't get the thing to sit right at all... So I chopped the heel off of the sewn-together boot cover and made a separate heel cover. But not before I realized I might as well add gold trim to match the whole outfit! So I made a small length of matching trim with the leftover gold spandex I had (gold tights in a previous life!) and some adhesive interfacing. I ironed the gold edges under, which stuck together like magic with the fusible interfacing, for a clean line. Then! Sandwiched the edge of the boot cover with this trim and sewed along the outer line.
Ok! So I have boot covers. With gold trim. BUT! Then I realized I didn't have enough slack at the bottom, so I cut and sewed an extension on both boot covers. I should have tested the first one, because it still wasn't right. So THEN I chopped all of THAT off and made a whole new bottom that was too much material. Man. This is a lesson in not rushing and not double checking your work before you cut. :/
So I glued down the heel cover to the heel with hot glue, after removing more of the original shoe exterior with my dremel buffer. Then I sewed the new bottom to the existing top. With it being too big, I was able to mark where the actual sole this time directly onto the inside of the fabric. Yeah, much better! Since I was working with a fabric that wants to unravel, I sewed the bottom seam under for a clean, secure line.
THEN, finally, I attached the bottom of the fabric to the bottom line of the shoe with contact cement, just along where the shoe meets the sole. SUCCESS. Oh my gosh, this took way longer than I meant. Whoops. And it's still got flaws that I see now that I've accomplished it. But you know what? It's a vast improvement all the same, so I can deal with it. Now my whole boot matches the Hannah outfit, and I can ditch the good-enough knee socks I wore with the boots before.
I'll post more on www.facebook.com/WyldkyssCostumes/
its a big learning curve jumping into macro ,hopefully it will fall into place with a bit of reading anyways heres another from today

It’s amazing how we can grow into our jobs much the same way we grow throughout our lives. Sometimes, either one is not easy. As time clicks forward, I find both to get easier.
Take my job, for example. When I first started delivering furniture a bit over six years ago, I had no idea what I was getting into. My previous truck driving job was tough, mostly because I was new, but it was mostly dock-to-dock, with most (but not all) offering big chunks of real estate to maneuver in. In my present-day rig, things can get hairy, and really crazy, on any given day.
We have a stop on Farmington Avenue in Hartford, Connecticut that serves as a fair reminder to me of what it means to grow. There is a narrow driveway, with a brick building on one side, and a metal fence on the other. Both are enemies of a safety bonus if you should hit one with a tractor-trailer while backing up into a spot where you shouldn’t be. Still, it must be done because everyone who has anything to do with your paycheck needs you to be. I’ve been to this place ten times by my best estimates.
The first time I showed up there, I wanted to cry. “You want the trailer where? Why? How?” I was terrified. In the end, I managed to block four lanes of traffic with honking horns and put my box-of-furniture where it needed to be. I sweated profusely.
The second time I visited I thought, “I can do this. I did it once before, and I know it’s a possible proposition.” It was scary but I knew it could be done, and so it was. It didn’t take as long, and didn’t contain as much sweat.
On my third visit, I showed up, swung across the road with four ways a blazing, and parked the darn thing without thinking twice. A polite grandmother beeped her horn and gave me the thumbs up. There was no sweat involved.
This week, on my tenth time around the block, I rolled my eyes and thought, “Piece of cake.” Then finally, something different happened. As I was backing up, I became captivated by the duplex across the street. After that, I grew an instant attachment to the black metal fence I didn’t want to hit, and the way it meshed with the house across the street. I wondered, out loud, just how many times that building had watched me do this maneuver. Most of all, I wanted to record that moment of time. What else is new?
All this happened while I was safely out of the road. I wanted to be a good employee, so I unloaded twenty-five pieces of furniture before I made my next move. When it was time to go, I inched my combination forward and set the brakes. I opened my door, leaned out against the fence, and took this picture. I left quickly, wondering if it was any good.
A day later, I got to check out my work. I don’t believe it is the best thing I have ever shot. I do enjoy the angle I shot it from. It adds in air of interestingness to the scene.
I like to look at everything I captured in the frame. With old houses, I always like to look closely at the windows, in the off chance that I caught a ghost looking back at me. I did not see any, but I did see that there was a heart in the middle window on the left. (You may have to press “L” on your keyboard to see it clearly.)
Why would it be there, and what does it mean? Maybe the house loves seeing me visit, or likes how I can put a truck into a spot without destroying anything it has to look at all day and night. I’ve even considered that it’s a direct reflection of the love I have for the universe. It treats me well most of the time, how could I not adore it?
A big part of growth is learning. One of the things I’m most proud of learning, is how to look at things differently. My Nikon has helped me to do that. (Learning how to back a truck into close corners without incident has come in handy too.) Seeing things from new angles applies to other aspects outside of photography; I’ve learned a lot about people too. They have told me personal stories through pleasant conversations, and they have taught me things about the city or town I happen to be standing in at the moment. It’s also helped me to think about things from a fresh perspective. That in turn keeps me happy because I like to think. Who knew that learning could be so much fun? It was not enjoyable during my school days. Someone should have told me I was going there to grow, instead of calling it learning. It might have also helped if someone tucked a camera into my backpack.

International students learning about life in the US.
Through the Institute for International Education, the US State Department sponsored programs for international students. From 1950 to 1957, Duke was a host institution for an IIE orientation program for students coming from abroad to study in the U.S. For several weeks during the late summer, we hosted international students and introduced them to life in the US.
