Children beneficiaries of a greenhouse manage by Ghuncha Gul, in Injil district of Herat province. Other greenhouse holder, Nafisa and her family are beneficiaries of the Climate Change Adaptation Project (CCAP), which is implemented by UNDP and Ministry of Agriculture. The project provided her with a greenhouse, seeds for vegetables, as well as the necessary training to become a successful small-scale farmer. To diversify livelihoods and improve women’s economic freedom, UNDP has implemented several other projects in Herat districts. These include: 6 raisin houses, 10 greenhouses, 1 apiary, and kitchen gardens for 30 women.
UNDP’s Climate Change Adaptation Project (CCAP), is a five-year project, made possible by the Global Environment Facility Least Developed Countries Fund. Over the next three years, together with the Ministry of Agriculture, UNDP will implement more than 100 livelihoods projects, including building more greenhouses and training farmers on food processing and food storage, as well as protecting 800 hectares of land from flooding, irrigate 4,000 hectares of agricultural land and repairing 30 canals.

Improved Production Race at Mount Panorama, Bathurst during the Liqui-Moly Bathurst 12hr Endurance Race weekend.
The day continued to improve and by 4:30 pm 45699 is photographed running out of the shadow, into the sunlight, as it skirts Mallerstang Common with the southbound Cumbrian Moutain Express. The train had run northbound to Carlisle, vis Shap, earlier in the day.
We drove to Northumberland during August, the first time we had been to the county. We were intending to explore a bit, walk a bit, generally familiarise ourselves with the place and of course, take photographs. Whilst the weather was much better than home, the light wasn’t always kind, frequently improving after we had a left a stunning viewpoint – we didn’t have the luxury of time as we wanted to see as much as possible and it’s a big place.
We walked over the Simonsides, part of Hadrian’s wall, along the coast and around lots of castles and villages. I was amazed at the lack of people and traffic, with fantastic quiet roads. I haven’t enjoyed driving so much for a long time, motorway distances on A and B roads, no hassle and great views.
We were out from 7.30 AM until 9.00 PM most days, shorts and tee shirt but not as warm and pleasant as recently. Our day on Hadrian’s wall saw gale force winds and as we drove to the western end of Kielder to travers the whole valley the weather was foul – but we were in the car! I didn’t take a single photo of Kielder as the visibility was that low.
I think we visited most of the well-known castles, drove up to Berwick, into the centre of the Cheviots, through the Scottish Borders and most of the coast North of Morpeth. There wasn’t much we didn’t see, even if it was sometimes brief, I don’t doubt that we will be back.
I’m not sure what people do in some of these remote places, with miles to travel for anything. I barely ever had a 3G signal on my phone. There seemed to be a lot of property for sale in some of the villages. I did wonder what people do for a living, I would guess that farming, tourism and government services are the only employment without a commute to the major conurbations around Newcastle.
August was fantastic for colour – if not light – the field were full of golden crops, the moors covered in purple heather, with some green fields and a dark green copse on every hill. If everything came together the photos look a little unreal, like paintings.

Improving climate change reporting in the Mediterranean: Science – Media interface
Talk-Café: Stories about people life, what’s is behind 2º C

Marrakech (Morocco)
As the climate issue moves further into public policy, journalists will face new challenges in sorting out the political and economic interests of experts with a dizzying array of opinions about the costs and benefits of combating global warming. In an open and creative conversation, some journalists from AMAN and other media will explain, based on their experience, examples of good stories on climate change that got more public impact, as well as the challenges that they face with their chief-editors or public opinion to explain, the policy side of the debate (eg COP), the scientific dimension or the potential economic impact of climate actions.

More than half of the 1.2 million residents of Mongolia's capital, Ulaanbaatar, live in the city's sprawling ger areas, and the majority of residents lack access to basic public services such as water, sewage systems, electricity, and safe waste disposal, and educational resources including libraries. While the majority of ger residents are poor, living standards vary, with some earning a decent income but still unable to afford the high prices of new apartments elsewhere in the city.

This could be titled, 'The one that got away' but as it departed Doncaster West Yard 21mins late and then with the timings wildly varying as it headed down the South Yorkshire Joint line, east via Worksop and to Gainsborough, the timings changed from 201mins late, to 13mins early and then 158mins late at Clarborough and back again to 30mins early at Gainsborough. I had assumed this was just the reporting from various station which hadn't been kept up-to-date, and so I decided not to be too concerned. However, once at Barnetby, the timings looked more correct, it being 53mins early there as it set off along to Brocklesby and Ulceby and so onto the section of line to Barton-on-Humber, which with only 2 signal boxes at Goxhill and Oxmarsh, meant no reports would be seen on the track diagram, until it had returned to Ulceby. When it did, it was reported as being 43mins early and so the 'alarm bells rang' as it looked like it was 'getting a shift on', which was correct as buy the time it had gone back through Barnetby and reached Gainsborough Trent Junction, it was running 91mins early, 97mins by the time it reached Brancliffe East Junction on the Lincoln line. So my planned jaunt out at around 11am, for a pass in this area at about midday, suddenly turned into a bit of a rush to get somewhere for 10:30 at the latest, which, in the event, I just manged to do. Fortunately there was a Northern passenger service, 1L48, running along before it from Lincoln Central via Worksop and Sheffield to Leeds, with 195002, and the station stops for this service slowed up the passage of the Test Train.. Phew...
Here at upper left, now running 88mins early in sprightly fashion, the set has just come under the old redundant, but still in-situ, Darnall Flyover (bridge number MAC3/139A), and is heading along the down Lincoln Line in what looks like very pleasant terrain, the recent line clearance having now almost all grown back. This is one of the Network Rail, N.M.T., 'New Measurement Trains', operated by 'Colas Rail', with two class 43, H.S.T.s, at the front 43277, ex-43077, 'Safety Task Force', a rake of 5 test coaches and with 43357, still in 'Cross Country Trains' livery, at the back on the 3Q55, Derby R.T.C. via Barnetby & Sheffield to Derby R.T.C. The coaches were-
977986 - Brake Force Runner,
977985 - Brake Force Runner, with 'Improving Your Railway' on the side,
A Caledonian Sleeper Coach, number unknown,
999602 - Ultrasonic Test Coach, UTU-3 and
6263 - Generator Van
running on the 'Structure Gauging Train'.
At upper right, a fine view in good light, taken towards the busy centre of Sheffield and showing the latest, ongoing, development of student accommodation taking place in the Love St. area of 'Riverside' with 3 large tower-blocks now erected and filling up more open, once derelict, space, see the video here-

Ahead under Woodburn Bridge, Sheffield's S0154 signal on the Nunnery Bank down into Sheffield Station, is glowing red and the very early running set will be halted for around 12mins, awaiting clearance through to the station. 'Colas Rail' liveried class 43, 43277 ex-43077, 'Safety Task Force' is leading the set and with here, 43357, still in 'Cross Country Trains' livery, bringing up the rear, the whole lot slowing to a halt ahead under the bridge. The state of the rail-head on the Stocksbridge branch line, over on the right, is clear to see, nothing has run up here, I live not far from the line further north, and the evening Steel Train working, 6J57, from the Aldwarke Steel Works at Parkgate, has now been _deleted_ from the time table. In addition last weeks very early morning Test Train, on 24th August, coming up from Woodburn Junction at 00:26, show the set getting back to Woodburn at around 00:35, about 10mins later, which means the 45 minute jaunt up to Deepcar and back, did not happen, the HST set with 43357 & 43257, just reversing and heading off to Rotherham; another troubling sign for this line. The branch line is currently marked as 'SHUT' on the track diagram. By the time the Test Train had pulled up for a halt along the line, another working was making its way towards Woodburn, at this time of the day between 10:30 and 11am, this could only mean one thing, the aggregates train was heading this was from Tinsley Yard. It had left the Yard 83mins early, for some reason, having arrived earlier in the morning, 26mins late, at 07:00, from Coton Hill quarry with 2000tonnes on the 6E97 working, leaving at 21:04, the previous evening and spent 4 hours overnight at Humberstone Road near Leicester, continuing on north to here at 04:26.
At lower left, is GBRf class 66, 66741, 'Swanage Railway' on the empties return 6M01, from Tinsley Yard(GBRf) now to the quarry at Bardon Hill, with 20, JGA Bogie Aggregate Hopper Wagons and is seen passing along yet another 'greenway' from Broughton Lane, along the Lower Don Valley line and so on into Sheffield. It arrived at Woodburn's W0213 signal, just visible at the rear of the train, at around 10:45 whilst the Test Train was passing along the main line towards a stop on the Nunnery Bank. 66741 pulled away from the signal at 10:55 and commenced its journey south at the cross-overs near the site of the old Woodburn signal box/cabin, now a relay hut, unlike the past, when a view of both this line and the main line could be seen from here, at a pinch, using a 2-part panoramic view, this is now longer possible due the huge forest of trees and shrubbery...
At lower right, the set rattles over the cross-over outside the relay hut, and it was possible, just, to see the back of the Test TRain parked up and the further signal, W0154 with 66741 slowing to be brought to a halt at the signal in rear of that one, W0217, under the Woodburn Bridge and alongside the Nunnery SuperTram depot on the left.. The Test Train ran down into the station at 11:00 and ran though platform 6 without stopping, arriving in Derby 68mins early, this was followed 15 mins later by the Bardon freight which also ran along platform 6, arriving at Bardon Hill at 14:52

My new and improved neighborhood now features suspended benches in memory of someone's beloved porch swing. The benches are suspended but attached down, so one has to get very mindful to actually sense a sweet and subtle swing sitting on them. The roses have come along beautifully and flowered in a variety of spectacular colors. This area is one of my favorite, there are several, features in our new and vastly improved Railyard Park.

Larry is the man!!!
This past weekend he built me a brand new, and much sturdier trellis for my trumpet vine on the side of the house.
The old trellis blew down last fall during a heavy rain and wind storm, and had been laying in a heap in my southside garden. I had to practically cut it back to nothing, in order to pull the old lumber out of it's twining branches. I'm glad to see all the new growth. It should be nice and full up on the top of the trellis by the end of the season.
Larry still has to put Stella's little perch back there on the top too. She will be glad to have one of her favorite hiding spots in the yard back!
