How can developing countries ensure they take the path to prosperity, and not the road to ruin? Once a nation has more citizens of working age than dependents, it is poised at the edge of an unprecedented economic boom, known as the demographic dividend. But realizing this dividend demands multisectoral policies, investments, and programs that enable young people to flourish.
“Ensuring access to education, health services and employment for youth can mean the difference between capitalizing on a demographic dividend or taking a road towards disempowerment and disaffection,” says Dr. Babatunde Osotimehin, UNFPA’s Executive Director.
Join us on December 8th to explore how countries can achieve the demographic dividend through empowerment, education, and employment. Panelists will present innovative rights-based approaches to working with women, youth, and marginalized groups in ways that ensure the demographic dividend benefits all.
Just as empowerment, education, and employment are key to unlocking the demographic dividend, environmental sustainability also plays a critical role in the future of today’s youth. Join us for a special reception celebrating the release of ECSP’s “Healthy People, Healthy Environment” documentary trilogy, filmed in Tanzania, Ethiopia, and Nepal. Filmmaker, Sean Peoples, UNFPA’s Benoit Kalasa, and the Wilson Center’s Roger-Mark De Souza will offer brief remarks.
This event is co-sponsored by the United Nations Population Fund.

Trans Florida Aviation F-51N Mustang
#33, 2 Squadron, Sudanese Air Force
Dongola, Sudan, 5 February 1965
Trans Florida Aviation (TFA) was formed in 1947 to acquire surplus F-51 Mustangs and convert them into civilian aircraft. TFA quickly developed several variants based on the P-51B/C and D/K models, including the lightweight Mustang Thoroughbred racer and two-seat Executive Mustang versions. When World War Three broke out in 1950, TFA’s civilian work on the Mustang put it in a good position to win government contracts to refurbish and sustain Mustangs operated by the USAF, ANG and Allied foreign users. TFA produced its first significantly modified combat version of the Mustang, the F-51N, in 1954. This mated the readily available and robust F-51D/K airframe (strengthened for higher maximum take-off weight and heavier ordnance load) with the taller vertical tail and more powerful Packard Merlin V-1750-9 engine of the F-51H. Depending on customer requirements, F-51Ns were built without or without wingtip fuel tanks. The company provided a range of sustainment services for military Mustangs into the 1970s, before resuming its civilian focus which continues to today. Although TFA flew several Turbo Mustang prototypes (including the Lycoming T55-powered F-51TL and the Orenda Astazou-powered F-51TO), these efforts failed to find customers.
When Sudan gained its independence from Egypt and the Royalist British Government in Exile in 1956, it inherited a squadron of ex-RAF F-51Ds. These aircraft were surplus RAAF P-51Ks, converted to F-51D standard by TFA in 1954 and issued to the RAF. Transferred to the Sudanese Air Corps (from 1962, the Sudanese Air Force) in 1956, the aircraft proved so valuable on COIN duties that an order was placed in 1959 for 18 F-51Ns with wingtip fuel tanks. Some of the F-51Ns were Sudanese F-51Ds converted on-site at Dongola, others being F-51Ds converted in America. This aircraft, #33, was the last Sudanese F-51D converted to F-51N at Dongola and was redelivered in December 1964.
TFA benefited considerably from a 1955 UN Resolution that required all member states to stand-up a specified minimum air defence capability by 1958. The Resolution’s Stage One Capability demanded aircraft with a minimum level speed of 400 mph, leading to a scramble for World War Two era piston-engined types, including Bearcats, Corsairs, Mustangs, Thunderbolts and Kaiser-built P-50 Spitfires. Stage Two Capability, to be reached by 1965, required jet powered types with a minimum speed of 500 mph. Stage Three, enforced from 1974, required supersonic performance. Nations unable to establish and maintain such a capability were required to contract other UN members to provide air defence. The overall result was the sale of large numbers of fighters to countries that didn't overwise need them. These demands saw Sudan's Mustangs officially replaced in the air defence role by second-hand Canadair Sabre FGA.6s in 1960, which in turn were replaced by the Mirage 5SU in 1972. For thoroughly entertaining discussions of this controversial program, see Roy Braybrook’s books BOOM! A Personal View of The Great UN Fighter Boondoggle and Dogfight! Confessions of a Travelling Fighter Salesman.
Although the Egyptian government had “encouraged” the decolonisation of Sudan, the country’s independence was concluded with mutual border areas still in dispute. Egypt and Sudan maintained conflicting claims over two areas extending north and south of the 1899 Treaty boundary along the 22nd Parallel. This arrangement saw Egypt occupying a small salient east of Wadi Halfa and Sudan "administrating" a larger patch of territory alongside the Red Sea. With the start of the UN bombing campaign against Red-backed revolutionary Egypt on 1 February 1965, Sudan launched an offensive to drive the Egyptians out of their zone of occupation south of the nominal 1899 Treaty border. Forward deployed to Wadi Halfa, the Embraer EMB.326GS of Sudan’s 4 Squadron launched attacks on Egyptian positions from 1 February. This action brought an Egyptian response in the disputed, Sudanese occupied area to the north of the 1899 border. With UN help, Sudan successfully pushed the Egyptians out of the disputed areas and retained control over them until 1980.
Supporting the Sudanese Army, the F-51Ns of 2 Squadron performed strike, CAS, FAC, Sandy CSAR fire support, convoy escort and armed reconnaissance missions throughout these operations. The loadout of four Mk.82 bombs on TERS and two LAU-3 rocket pods was common. Few details have been published and little is known about the individuals involved, but one Mustang was lost to ground fire, north of the Egyptian town of Al Shalateen. #33 is depicted here as photographed by a Time photojournalist at Dongola on 5 February, 1965.
Sudan retired its Mustangs in favour of another North American design, the OV-10A Bronco, in 1968. Aircraft #33 was sold back to TAF in 1969. Shipped back to the USA, it was sold on the civilian market in 1974 and is now on indoor display at The Defenders Air Museum, Chino, California.
Note that the Sudanese Air Force roundel seen here features the Arab Revolt colours of red, white and black with a green wedge at the top. This was one of several semi-official Sudanese Air Force roundels simultaneously used during the 1960s, the variations reflecting the states in which the aircraft were permanently based. For example, units based at Khartoum Air Base, in the Federally-administered Khartoum State, used the national colours of blue, yellow and green for their markings: in the mid-1960s, this applied to the Xavantes and transports based there. Those based at Dongola in the state of Northern Sudan, such as the Mustangs of 2 Squadron, used the Arab Revolt colours of green, red, black and white with a green wedge at the top of the roundel. By contrast, the Sabres of 5 Squadron at Port Sudan in the Red Sea state used the Arab Revolt colours, but with the green segment located to the left of the roundel. This latter style of roundel was standardised across the SAF from 1970, as it reflected the design of the new national flag adopted in May of that year.
Chick 'n' Egg Chair is a lightweight seating furniture made entirely from corrugated cardboard.
It was designed and developed at the Chair of CAAD, ETH Zürich.
The form was completely 3D modelled in McNeel Rhino and then further processed in Grasshopper. The parametric setup allows the piece to be rescaled to any desired size, resolution and material strenght. Although the chair was initially designed for kids it can easily be adjusted. So far two versions have been cut and built - one for small children and another one for grown ups.
The algorithm to compute the necessary cutting paths is relatively simple. The 3D model is scanned and a simple grid projected onto the surface. This grid is extruded to meet the desired material strenght and then intersections and connection slots are determined. The resulting parts are arranged on a flat surface and can be processed on a cutting plotter. This method can be used for any continuous surface and will adjust automatically.
The program was then developed further to improve comfort and stability of the chair. Now the second set of slizes lies perpendicular to the center line of the model which leads to a more homogenous seating surface.

Again from WikiPedia: "The Norden bombsight was developed during a period of United States non-interventionism when the dominant U.S. military strategy was the defense of the U.S. and its possessions. A considerable amount of this strategy was based on stopping attempted attacks at sea, both with direct naval power, and starting in the 1930s, with USAAF airpower. Most air forces of the era invested heavily in dive bombers or torpedo bombers for these roles, but these aircraft generally had limited range, so long-range strategic reach would require the use of an aircraft carrier. The Army felt the combination of the Norden and B-17 Flying Fortress presented an alternate solution, believing that small formations of B-17s could successfully attack shipping at long distances from the USAAC's widespread bases. The high altitudes the Norden allowed would help increase the range of the aircraft, especially if equipped with a turbocharger, as in the B-17."

My girlfriend found an old Instamatic camera for my collection and got it because it had a roll of film in it. It had been loaded and wound to the first frame, but since it sat in the camera for around 40 years, the first frame and a half had possibly (probably) been exposed many times. I shot the roll and developed it today to see if I any pictures on the roll turned out. They were quite faded and suffered heavy color shift, but I got useable images! The roll was in a Kodak Instamatic 154 when she bought it, but I transferred it to a Kodak Instamatic 104, and then finished it up in a Kodak Instamatic X-15, both cameras that I’ve had for awhile and been wanting to shoot with.

dgj071 Minihaus I - Minimum Impact House, Frankfurt am Main, D , 2008
English
Minimum-Impact-House is a holistic approach for the reduction of the overall-impact of residential housing by creating a new type of residential house by densifying the city centre. In the design project a prototype mini-house has been developed to explore the potential of so far uninhabitable urban niches. A triangular site of only 29sqm was chosen to built a Mini-house in size comparable to a family house of 150sqm. This strategy avoids the further use of land and the need of building of new infrastructure like streets and public buildings. The city centre is denser an environment so that the inhabitants won’t to travel so often to work, shopping, education, or cultural events.
In a research project the prototype was compared to a typical suburban house. A life-cycle-analysis quantified the amounts of energy, material, and investment for the construction, and consumed during an estimated life-span of the buildings of 50 years. The analysis for which a software was developed was also used as a design-tool for optimising the prototype-building in terms of energy-consumption, construction, and materials. For the building construction renewable resources, mainly timbre, had been used which reduces the energy content and emissions.

Das Minimum Impact House wurde von einem Verbundforschungsprojekt begleitet mit Drexler Guinand Jauslin Architekten GmbH und Fachgebiet Entwerfen und Energieeffizientes Bauen Prof. Manfred Hegger der TU Darmstadt. Gefördert von der Deutschen Bundesstiftung Umwelt DBU.
Das Minihaus ist ein Prototyp für innerstädtische Nachverdichtung. Statt einer Zersiedlung der Landschaft zur Schaffung von Wohnraums können Nischen und Restflächen in der Stadt genutzt werden. So wird die bestehende Infrastruktur besser ausgelastet und das sozio-kulturelle Gefüge der Stadt gestärkt.
Durch eine umfassende Ökobilanzierung wurde das Gebäude ganzheitlich optimiert. Dabei wurde sowohl die Herstellung (Holzbauweise, natürliche nachwachsende Ressourcen) als auch der Betrieb (Passivhaus-Standard, erneuerbare Energien) als auch Instandhaltung und Rückbau analysiert.
Makro-ökonomisch werden durch den geringen Landverbrauch und die Vermeidung von Investitionskosten in Straßen, Leitungen, öffentliche Gebäude vermieden. Bei dem Gebäude wurden durch geringe Betriebkosten und günstige Finanzierung (KFW40) die Lebenszykluskosten optimiert.

I have applied the carcinogen to the two seedlings at the back of the pot - see the orange blobs sticking to the cotyledonous leaves. This is an attempt to induce polyploidy. (It may look like 'Agent Orange' but is less toxic)
Here is an article which suggests a very similar approach. I developed the same strategy years ago (2004) unaware of this publication. My "glue" uses a mixture of arrowroot starch and glycerine as well as the oryzalin in the appropriate quantity. (I am more into cooking than chemistry though it is the same thing really)

After the success of the SE.313 Alouette II general purpose helicopter, Aerospatiale began to develop a more advanced version with an uprated Turbomeca engine. This eventually became an entirely new helicopter, the SE.3160 Alouette III, which first flew in February 1959.
The Alouette III was larger than its predecessor, with an entirely enclosed structure and much larger fuselage. It did not use landing skids but rather wheels, and was more streamlined than the Alouette II. It retained the Alouette II's simple handling characteristics. Redesignated SA.316, the SA.316B became the main production variant, with a more powerful Turbomeca Artouste engine; this entered production in 1968. The Alouette III was easily modified to a variety of roles, from medical evacuation to general cargo transport to gunship, and its robust construction generated much interest.
The Alouette III became even more popular than its predecessor, and sales were nearly as good as its two main rivals, the Bell UH-1 series and the Mil Mi-8/17. At least 60 air forces used Alouette IIIs, and about a third of those still fly SA.316Bs or later variants today. Though Alouette III numbers are dwindling, quite a few will remain in service for some time to come.
C-FCAZ was ordered by the Canadian Coast Guard in 1966 as a search and rescue helicopter. Based at Victoria, British Columbia, it flew with the CCG for 20 years before it was retired in 1986 and donated to the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology as a ground instruction trainer. Sometime after 1998, it was donated to the AeroSpace Museum (now Hangar Flight Museum) of Calgary, where it was placed on display. Though it retains its Coast Guard scheme and registration, it has been stripped of other markings.
The temperance movement developed in Britain after the mid 19th century as a reaction to alcohol abuse, mainly amongst the working classes and their children. Temperance societies advocated moderation of alcohol drinking or total abstinence and were mainly associated with various church denominations. Temperance society campaigns were mainly fought by means of moral persuasion but also organised lobbying to restrict alcohol sales. This brought the temperance movement into conflict with the powerful brewing and licensed victuallers trade who in turn would organise their own anti-temperance societies.
The first major temperance society in Britain was the Band of Hope, established 1847 in Leeds. The Church of England Temperance Society (CETS) was founded in 1862 and within their first twenty years had established local branches throughout all the church dioceses. As the mid-20th century progressed, temperance movements gradually lost their appeal and influence they once had.
This is a scarce medal and is unusual in being enamelled. The usual CETS medals seen depict St. George slaying the dragon and are stamped from plain metal without any enamels.

Certificates distribution ceremony held of Developing Critical Mass
for Educational Reform in Chitral
CHITRAL: Since its inception in 2003, the Aga Khan University’s
Professional Development Centre in Chitral (AKU-PDCC) has been
offering a variety of high quality innovative programs for building
the capacity of schools and key stakeholders in Chitral, other parts
of Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Over 2600 teachers, head teachers, and
education managers have thus far attended various Certificate and
short courses offered by this institution. PDCC. has also developed a
number of schools as model in multi-grade teaching and ECED. Its
faculty have engaged in research and published a number of articles
and book chapters in various national and international journals and
books. PDCC has recently won a very competitive research grant award
from Higher Education of Pakistan to study the role of civil society
institutions in promoting cultural diversity and pluralism in Chitral.
A colorful ceremony was organized at PDCC to celebrate the successful
completion of two Certificate Courses in ‘Educational Leadership and
management’ and ‘Primary Education’. A total of 39 head teachers and
teachers graduated from these two courses. 22 out of 39 were from
government schools. Executive District Officer primary and elementary
schools Muhammad Siraj was chief guest on the occasion while there
ceremony was presided over by Sultan Mehmood Regional Program
Manager Hashoo Foundation. The ceremony was attended by
educationists, leaders of the civil society institutions, and teachers
community.
Speaking at the ceremony, Dr. Mir Afzal Tajik, Head Outreach AKU-IED
and Head PDCC highlighted key issues and hurdles in the way of
improving the quality of education in the district. He also
highlighted how these courses have helped the graduates to address
these issues and thus bring about positive changes in their schools.
He urged that bringing about positive changes in schools is possible
but the head teachers and teachers have to initiate the change. The
purpose of these courses was to develop the ‘change agents’ needed to
initiate and lead the change.
Siraj Muhammad, EDO Education Chitral, thanked AKU-PDCC for its
continuous efforts to enhance the capacity of schools and to develop
leadership and change agents for schools in Chitral. He urged the
graduates to implement what they have learnt in the courses and
assured them of his full support. He particularly thanked PDCC
leadership for their cooperation with the government education. He
also advised the graduates that they should work with full enthusiasm
and diligence.
Sultan Mehmood and others also lauded AKU-PDCC for its valuable
contributions to capacity building of key stakeholders in Chitral.
Mrs. Commandant Chitral Scouts while talking on the occasion expressed
her great sorrow on trend of cheating. She said that mostly graduate
and post graduates students could not speak transparently and they are
very poor in general knowledge. Although they have degrees but no
knowledge it means that they use unfair-means in examinations or warm
palm of Board and university staff. She said that during recruitment
of Chitral scouts some 31 candidates were pulled out from test hall
because of involving in cheating. She said that our head teaches and
teachers can bring positive changes. She appreciated decision of
provincial government to bound government schools teaches to enroll
their children in Govt. schools not in private one so as to couscous
about the future of their own children and they will teach honestly to
their students. At last Certificates were distributed amongst the
graduates.

Maple flowers lack petals but they provide wonderful color when they are massed on the tree, reminiscent of the color maples provide in the winter.

Juror Statement: It’s always a pleasure to serve as a juror for such national exhibitions like the Center Galley’s Developed Work exhibition for the 2010 National Photography Fellowship Competition. The process of looking at each submission opens my eyes to a variety of exciting trends developing in the field of photography. The photographic styles ranged from portraiture to landscape, abstract to sculptural, and conceptual to dreamlike. Overall the dominant theme was a introspect view of the United States’ social political landscape. The seven artists I chose to include in this exhibition reveal the diversity in photographic theme and style seen throughout all the entries.
Larry Robinson’s work cleverly stood out in the submissions with its wit, absurdity and pop culture references. The juxtaposition between the projected images of food in the installations with their contrasting domestic or natural environments speaks humorously to America’s infatuation with food. Roger Boulay’s photographs of sculptural stacks of magazines speak beautifully to America’s consumption of media. Jennifer Colten’s eerie surveillance-like video stills of uninhabited places tap into the more anxiety prone culture Americans have developed since the September 11th attacks. Eric White’s examines the border between Mexico and the United States with particular focus on the security fences, surveillance stations and checkpoints. Through portraiture, still-life and landscape, Zach Abubecker observes Ethiopian immigration in the United States raising issues of assimilation and cultural identity. Mary Farmilant’s striking interiors of abandoned hospital spaces perhaps act as a depiction of the current demise of the heath care system. And lastly, Pete White conflates death notice photographs with weather reports in an attempt to illustrate the social political tension generated by death.
The caliber of the work submitted was stellar and I would like to recognize the following artists that I was unable to include in this exhibition: Brook Reynolds for her pictures of closed gas stations; Rylan Steele for his interior office pictures, and Amanda Pfister for her typography of closed car dealership throughout the United States.

U.S. Department of Agriculture USDA Agricultural Research Service ARS Sugarcane Research Unit scientists developed and released a new high-fiber variety of sugarcane, or energy cane, Ho 06-9002, in Houma, LA, and continue their research on December 13, 2021. Sugarcane is one of the most efficient producers of biomass of all plant species and can be used as a renewable fuel. The new variety has a high fiber content, excellent regrowth ability over 4 to 5 years, is cold-tolerant, has a high stalk population, and produces excellent biomass yields. Ho 06-9002 showed no symptoms of brown rust or smut when exposed to high levels of natural inoculum. Mosaic disease, caused by either sugarcane mosaic virus or sorghum mosaic virus, was not observed in the variety under natural field conditions. Its most significant attribute is cold tolerance and the ability to yield high biomass in non-traditional sugarcane growing regions.
Here, the Sugarcane Research Unit research geneticists, scientists, and technicians harvest, tag, and bundle samples from test crops in these rows of sugarcane. They stand at markers that identify the variety along the row and signal the combine harvester operator when the blades reach the marker. Then each small harvest is transferred to a hopper wagon to be weighed. Ten canes of each variety are collected, tagged, and bundled for delivery to the USDA ARS Sugarcane Research Unit at Ardoyne Farm for weighing and testing. Onboard the harvester and hopper units, GPS and scale systems record the harvest weight and location of each variety.
These test plots are at the Spanish Trails Farm near Houma, La. The ongoing studies are conducted in cooperation with the Department of Energy; university extensions, and industry organizations.
