On October 30, 2016 Mona Relief's ground crew resumed today distributing food aid packages to vulnerable families in al-Durehimi area in Hodeidah in western Yemen.
Our campaign in Hodeidah to feed 5000 families has started on September 25 where Mona Relief crew reached out families in al-Tuhita area in Hodeidah providing urgently needed basic supplies to 200 families there.
Mona Relief Yemen's aid comes after shocking images of malnourished mothers and their emaciated children emerged earlier this month.
Every family is given a package of 50kg wheat, 10kg rice, 10kg sugar and cooking oil enough to last a month.
The going war in Yemen has plunged the country into a serious humanitarian crisis, with hundreds suffering from famine and malnutrition.
With the lack of food coupled with high prices, many are left with little choice but to resort to eating leaves.
Meanwhile, the United Nations World Food Program (WPF) warned that “at least seven million people - a quarter of the population - are living under emergency levels of food insecurity
It is a crisis that has deepened since the civil war broke out, and according to WFP there has been a 15 percent increase in hunger during the past year. The WFP further warns that another 7.1 million people are ready to fall into hunger if the situation does not improve. In 19 of the 22 governorates of Yemen, many are experiencing severe hunger.

Corporal Joseph Pokorny was shot and killed following a short pursuit near an exit ramp from I-279 in Carnegie, Pennsylvania, shortly after 0200 hours.
A violent struggle ensued after the driver of the vehicle crashed. During the struggle the suspect was able to gain control of Corporal Pokorny's service weapon. The suspect then shot him in the neck and chest. The round that struck him in the chest entered an area around his armpit not protected by his vest. The suspect then stole Corporal Pokorny's service weapon and fled the scene.
Several minutes later, a Carnegie police officer who happened to be driving by the scene, located Corporal Pokorny's body in a snowbank approximately 25-feet from his patrol car. A second handgun was found underneath Corporal Pokorny.
The suspect, who had been on parole for less than one month, was taken into custody later in the day and officially charged with Corporal Pokorny's murder two days later. On October 24, 2007, he was sentenced to life in prison without parole.
Corporal Pokorny had served with the Pennsylvania State Police for 22.5 years, and was assigned to Troop B, Pittsburgh. He is survived by his son, daughter, and parents.
On May 3, 2007, a section of I-279 was dedicated as the Corporal Joseph Raymond Pokorny Jr. Memorial Highway.
The films distributed under the Rollei Brand by MACO Products, Germany, include former film formula's of Agfa company. The Rollei INFRARED 400 would differs from the Retro 400S (which iis ndeed the formula of former Agfa Aviphot 400) version by increased sensitivity in the near-infrared band. The film is side-marked 'INFRARED" but the processing times are the same as the 400S version.
On July, 29, 2024, Lyon, France, I decided to test a roll of this INFRARED version in a photo session at Par de la Tête d'Or by a quite warm (36°C) and sunny day. The results are quite close to my person IR-photography sessions made past year with the 400S version.
I took the same camera I used past year for infrared photography with one of my two Minolta's X-700 (the one called « China » period 1993-1999)
The Agfa Aviphot 400 film was originally designed for aerial photography for its capacity to differentiate green tones and to give a good clarity reducing in part the atmospheric haze. The Agfa Aviphot sensivity curve starts to decrease at 670 nm to fall at zero around 820 nm. The band starting at 780 (up to 2500nm) is the beginning of the "near infra-red" band of the electromagnetic spectrum.
The Minolta X-700 SLR camera was fitted with a normal lens Minolta MD 1:1.2 f=50mm. The lens was equipped with a 55mm screw-on IR filter with a cutoff at 720nm. Since the filter is so dark for a comfortable through-the-lens viewing, a FOCA "Universel" external view-finder (Made in France in the 50’s) was used for an easy framing. The X-700 has also a Multi-Function Back allowing diverse pricing modes. The date was manually printed before view 1 and the time of the end of film after the last frame.
The film was exposed for 40 ISO using my Minolta Autometer III external light meter equipped with a selective 10° finder. The X-700 light metering system was not used and the camera was operated in the manual mode using the exposure times of 1/60s or 1/125s for f/4 to f/11

After completion, the film was processed using Adox Adonal developer (equivalent to Agfa Rodinal) at dilution 1+25, 20°C for 10min30. The photograms were then digitalized using a Sony A7 body fitted to a Minolta Slide Duplicator installed on a Minolta Auto Bellows III with a lens Minolta Bellow Macro Rokkor 50mm f/3.5. The RAW files obtained were then processed without intermediate files in LR and edited to the final jpeg pictures.
All frames of the film are presented in two different processing versions (normal or with the "clarity" parameter of LR reduced by -100% to mimic the traditional glow of former KODAK Infrared films)
About the camera and the lens :
Minolta X-700 SLR was manufactured in Japan and first released in 1981, and delocalized in China from 1993 to 1999. I bought them in early 2022 from eBay accompanied with their motor drive MD I and other accessories. The MD 1:1.2 f=50mm is part of my Minolta lens collection and was purchased as a vintage lens on line in the mid 2010's.

Panel paintings of the 15th and 16th centuries are little represented in British public collections, so this picture make an important addition to York Art Gallery’s strong holdings of European art.
An unidentified male saint, wearing a fur-lined red cloak suggestive of wealth and authority, distributes coins in a walled outdoor setting. The lettering on the saint's halo has not been decoded. Among the recipients, tw neatly dressed woman carrying a child, and a man with ragged clothing and crutches - have hats decorated with pilgrim badges. This would have suggested, for viewers of that time, that they are pious Christians deserving of charity.
In an effort aimed at uplifting the productivity and income of farmers, the Rose Namayanja Foundation this week distributed planting seeds to various farming groups in Semuto Sub County, Nakaseke District.
The distribution of the high quality seeds to the farming groups was done in preparation for the new planting season. The farmers were also sensitized on the best farming practices in order to yield better harvests.
While sensitizing the farmers on how they can best fight pests and diseases from destroying their crops, Mr. Ivan Kulaba an agronomist with House of Seeds, advised the farmers to embrace team work and also consider spraying as a preventative measure against pests.
“Don’t wait to spray your crops after they have been attacked by pests but consider spraying as a preventive measures if you are to have high yields. Work as a team. Spray at the same time as your neighbor to avoid pests running into your garden from the other side,” Kaluba said.
Before distributing the planting seeds, the Rose Namayanja Foundation CEO, Mr Joseph Munyangabo called upon the farmers to put into practice the skills they have been taught to acquire high yields at the end of the season. He also pledged on behalf of the foundation to continue supporting the farmers in order to enable them achieve their highest potential.
The farmers applauded the foundation for the planting seeds and technical advice rendered to them. They pledged to support the foundation in its endeavor of reaching out to the people and promised to translate the knowledge gained into high yields and income.
“I’m very grateful to Hon. Rose Namayanja Nsereko for the help rendered to our community through her foundation.
These seeds will not only help us increase output, but will also transform both our families and community.” Ms Margaret Nalugya a farmer attached to Semuto Market Vendor’s group said.
The Semuto Town Council Mayor, Mr. Kizito Richard, commended the foundation for the great initiative of transforming the lives of many people.
The Rose Namayanja Foundation continues to provide skills training on selected enterprises such as agriculture among others to enable the people in these fields have a better understanding of their activity for increased production and income.
