18 March 2014. Saraf Omra: Ahmed Adam, from Al Nur, near Saraf Omra, North Darfur, is picture in their shelter of the new settlement for displaced people at the vicinity of the UNAMID base.
In the aftermath of a conflict that erupted on 7 March between the Gimir and Abbala tribes, an estimated 55,000 people from Saraf Omra and neighbouring villages were displaced. Many sought refuge in the vicinity of the UNAMID base in the town, while others moved to villages in Central and West Darfur.
The feuding communities signed a cessation-of-hostilities agreement on 12 March. Post this development, the situation has stabilized and the majority have returned to their homes. However, a few thousand are still displaced.

Iraq's Displacement Crisis and the International Response
The Iraq War has caused the largest population displacement in the Middle East since 1948. However, the dire situation has elicited neither a major international humanitarian response nor a policy debate over U.S. responsibility for the crisis. Sectarian fighting, political and criminal violence, lack of basic services, loss of livelihoods, spiraling inflation, and uncertainty about the future have pushed some 4 million Iraqis from their homes. Neighboring states, burdened by the influx of refugees and concerned for their own security, have imposed visa restrictions and effectively cut off entry. The Iraqis that have fled to neighboring countries face tremendous uncertainties, including the threat of deportation. Regional governments, coalition forces, and international organizations are grappling with the crisis while protecting against security vulnerabilities. The recent flow of Iraqis returning home may be a promising sign, but until security in Iraq improves and people can safely go back, critical attention must be paid to the remaining options: improved conditions inside Iraq, temporary placement in a host country, or resettlement in a third country.
The Center for American Progress and the Heinrich Boell Foundation hosted a conference addressing Iraq's displacement crisis, the international responses, and the prospects for improving the situation. The panelists offered their insights on the current challenge and examined the moral and security implications of the crisis, shared strategies, and identified programming and policy options.

Solar Plexus which is located behind the belly button or the Navel is the central location of the body according to various theories. This is also known as Nabhi, Nal , Nada and Dharan in Hindi. This is located approximately at the center of the body. Importance of the Solar Plexus increases due to the fact that one of the chakra also known as Manipur Chakra is also located at this location. In spiritual context of yoga, nabhi is the third chakra of the subtle body. We can call the centre for ‘Jeevani Shakti’ (life force). Healthy nabhi means healthy body which can be attuned for higher spiritual practice.
After the nabhi has shifted once, it is a problem which occurs frequently thereafter unless yogic precautionary practices are started. There are lots of reasons for navel displacement like an excess weight lifting, Weak stomach muscle, high stress, lower back pain, , hyper or hypo nature, excess gastric, Vata domination etc. The displacement is directly connected with the navel nerves, stomach muscles and movement of prana, and will affect each of these in some manner.

A semi-displacement 45 metre vessel featuring wide exterior spaces and a distinctive vertical bow.
The yacht was designed with a special focus on the ship owner's need and desire to take full advantage of the outdoor spaces, maintaining close contact with the sea. This explains why the craft was designed with a large, 70 metre aft cockpit offering maximum comfort. The vertical bow and decisive lines give the yacht a "military" look balanced by the harmony and the linearity of the interiors.
The interiors by the French designer Remi Tessier were created with attention even to the smallest details, with a watchful eye on the choice of materials. In addition to the principle essences such as sanded oak and ebony, many additional details were conceived with carbon fiber, precious black chrome and gold foil that adorn a large portion of the ceilings and the walls. A perfect synthesis between refined luxury and contemporary allure.
Considerable attention was also given to on-board entertainment, with an extremely easy to use audio-video system with global control. The Kaleidescape System for on-demand entertainment, Lutron for managing the domotics and the Apple system with integrated AirPlay for complete audio control. In addition to 7 crew members, the motor yacht sleeps 12 guests.
This theme ‘Displacement’ investigated the theme of both rural and urban erosion. To demonstrate my ideas, people were displaced in these carefully selected run down environments, placement was not always the decision of the photographer; an array of figures scattered into the landscape made for a surreal experience. This displacement is to signify how the economy can change and reshape lives as simply as the wind changing direction. The impact throughout time of an economic down turn can dramatically impact on the lives of those who live in both urban and rural communities. As banks and creditors tighten their belts, more and more businesses both big and small face the consequences. As large supermarkets are eager to continue their capitalist profiteering decide to source products abroad at cheaper rates, local farms and small businesses face closure unable to meet such cheap supply and demand. It is paradoxical as ordinary people no longer able to afford the finest foods or luxuries of organic produce seek cheap fodder for their hungry brood driving down prices even more.
These beings in the landscape stand still, only their heads moving back and forth, up and down, like standing to attention; attention to what their minds exude, maybe this twenty second capture allows them to forget all the troubles in the world or maybe they are shaking their heads in annoyance at their current situation. The sequence of the head movement suggests hidden identity and emphasizes the subject’s vulnerability and instability. I have always allowed the viewer to perceive what they wish to perceive, the title stands purposely structured in brackets so that the viewer is open to other interpretations. To create the illusion of levitation I photographed the space twice from the same tripod position, first with the objects and figures and then without. In Photoshop The Buckets and ladders etc. where replaced with the same space of the empty Photograph. The sepia filter juxtaposes the old with modern times. Reminiscent of time long gone; capturing the uncertainty of the atmosphere.
The decision to represent my thoughts at night – with the stars above, illustrates the magnitude of the problem, and closure of everything at night adds to a sense of fear of it all. Nightmares and sleepless nights go hand in hand with anxieties and troubled minds. I appear in some of my photographs deliberately to show my concerns about the environment and indeed my own employment in the future. It also adds for a more spiritual and meaningful work for myself as an artist.

The displacement of people within their own country is one of the gravest humanitarian consequences of armed conflicts and violence. According to one estimate, nearly 26 million people are internally displaced around the globe, many of them by conflict.
Internal displacement is often the direct result of violations of international humanitarian law (IHL). Despite the fact that IHL is legally binding on both State and non-State actors, many of its rules are disregarded. Direct attacks on civilian communities, general lack of security and the destruction of livelihoods continue to force innumerable civilians to flee their homes.
The ICRC, together with its partners from the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, puts major emphasis on protecting and assisting those who have been uprooted by war, as well as on supporting the communities hosting them.
The pictures in this collection, taken in conflict areas over the past year, give an insight into the challenges faced today in assisting populations affected by internal displacement.

4 July 2017. Padding: A woman drinks water from a dirty swamp on July 4, 2017, in an area where hundreds of displaced people live in Padding, Jonglei, South Sudan.
Fighting between Government and opposition forces last April pushed thousands of civilians to displace to Padding and Lankien, both still under opposition control. The massive displacement, that duplicated the population, brought an outbreak of cholera and a serious need of health assistance, drinking water and food distribution among the population, according to the local leaders.

Hulls built by Souter Marine (later SAR Composites at Lymington), and tubes by Avon. Final assembly completed at the RNLI Inshore Lifeboat Centre at Cowes, Isle of Wight. The Atlantic 85 replaced the Atlantic 75 in RNLI service.
Communications and navigation Includes
Fitted and hand-held VHF (very high frequency) radio
intercom (Atlantic 85 only)

electronic chart
The Atlantic 85 is part of the B-class of lifeboats that serve the shores of the United Kingdom and Ireland as a part of the RNLI inshore fleet.
The Atlantic 85 is the third generation B-class Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB) developed from the Atlantic 21 and the later Atlantic 75. The Atlantic design of the B-class of lifeboats is named after Atlantic College, where the design was originally developed.
Design
The hull is constructed in a fibre reinforced composite, consisting of a carbon fibre and foam core laminate with an epoxy glass and foam sandwich layup. The tubes are Hypalon.
The boat is powered by twin 115 hp (86 kW) Yamaha 4-stroke outboard engines that have been inversion-proofed to ensure the engines are still operational after a capsize.
Like previous RIBs, it has a manually operated self-righting mechanism that deploys an airbag mounted atop the A-frame. It is capable of being beached in an emergency without sustaining damage to engines or steering gear. The Atlantic 85 is fitted with radar and VHF direction finding equipment and can be operated safely in daylight in a force 6/7 and at night in a force 5/6.
The Atlantic 85 also has intercom communications between the crew and VHF radio via their helmets, DGPS & Chartplotter. It also carries a searchlight, night-vision equipment and illuminating paraflares for night-time operations.
To ensure equipment is kept to a high standard of repair, boats go through annual or bi-annual overhauls, and 4-year refits.
January 2009, the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Rosa, 25, whose parents and two brothers were killed in the war, has fled her home four times. She works as a labourer and takes care of a 15-year-old orphan.
In addition to the usual dangers that all IDPs encounter–health hazards and restricted access to health care and other essential services – displaced women and girls are at greater risk of sexual violence and exploitation. Furthermore, because armed conflict usually raises the mortality rate among men, displaced women often carry the burden of heading their households.

13 May 2013. El Sereif: Doctor Mohamed Dawalbeit assists a woman in El Sereif hospital, in North Darfur, with an advanced hepatitis who lost her baby in a premature delivery few days ago.
The hospital in this village was reopened last January due to the arrival of a mass displacement from all Jabel Amir area. The hospital, that suffers many deficiencies and critical problems in its building structure, has only a doctor who attends nearly 300 patients every day with serious health problems like hepatitis (200 cases in the last weeks), malaria, chest infections, malnutrition and premature deliveries.
The fighting over the goldmines between tribes Abbala (camel shepherds) and Beni Hussein (cattle shepherds) since 5 January 2013 resulted a mass displacement of more than 100,000 people, mostly fled to El Sereif, provoking a serious humanitarian crisis. The last incident occurred on May 9, with a fight in Amsinia (35 kilometers east from El Sereif).
The local authorities claim for help, basically on health, education, food and water.
UNAMID has bolstered its protection of civilians installing a temporary base in El Sereif, with 90 troops (from Rwanda), and started supporting the reconciliation initiatives between the two tribes, who are negotiation a peace conference in the coming weeks.

This may appear to be a Dutch wooden shoe and a derelict violin, but in fact, what you see are hulls that have yet to be fitted with masts, keels, etc...
Humm? a "high heeled" shoe... A sailboat falls into a "heel" right? Is there something here that deserves closer review? A "Stiletto boat"? Cannot a heel be turned into a keel? Perhaps I can find a solitary shoe to research the possibilities? Perhaps a glass slipper will do.
This all sounds good and "see"-worthy, but this project will have to wait until the "bier stein boat" project has been completed.
