A GI is a sign used on products that have a specific geographical origin and possess qualities or a reputation that are due to that origin. With help from the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), Some 100 smallholder farmers from small mountain villages are now reaping the benefits of agro-tourism and getting recognition for preserving centuries-old culinary traditions and a way of life that, elsewhere, has been long abandoned or is slowing dying out. The FAO-EBRD project has linked smallholder farmers, hotel and restaurant owners to local government and tourism agencies to promote their agro-tourism initiatives. It connected farmers with restaurant and hotel owners; trained farmers and chefs in how to store and cook local products to meet the European Unions’ hygienic standards, and adapt old recipes for today’s use – all with the aim of encouraging locals to keep their traditions alive whilst boosting their incomes and bettering their lives.

First page from the 'Guide of the Pilgrims' in the Codex Calixtinus, twelfth century. Fig. 33 in: HERWAARDEN, van, J. (1974). Pelgrimstochten. Unieboek BV./Fibula-van Dishoeck, Bussum. ISBN 90228 3989 3
---
The manuscript, guarded from the Middle Ages in the cathedral of Santiago, remained for a year in hiding after being stolen by a former employee of the temple.
The Codex Calixtinus is a XII-century manuscript jewel, considered the first and most famous guide to the Camino of Santiago. The volume was kept in the Cathedral of Santiago until 2011- the year in which it was stolen from the temple by a former employee, who kept it hidden until police found it 12 months later- it consists of sermons, hymns, miracles, liturgical texts, musicals pieces and stories about the Apostle Santiago and the pilgrimage route. That of Compostela is the oldest complete copy of the work known as Liber Sancti Jacobi, of which there are about 200 copies distributed throughout Europe. The texts were written at different times and independently, but the authorship of the last of the books that completes the Codex Calixtinus and, which specifically refers to the Camino of Santiago, was attributed to the French monk Aymeric Picaud.
The 225 scrolls that make up the Codex Calixtinus are divided into five books and two appendices. The first book is about Catholic liturgies, the second and third include – The Book of Miracles and The transfer of the Apostles Corps to Compostela, the fourth is on the achievements of the French king Charlemagne, and the last, the Liber Peregrinationis, is a comprehensive guide for pilgrims who embark on the Jacobean route to the Galician capital.
The Codex Calixtinus opens with two pages in which the Pope Calixto II recounts, through a letter addressed to “the very holy assembly of the basilica of Cluny ‘and’ to Diego Gelmírez, archbishop of Compostela”, his collection of testimonies relate to the miracles of the Apostle James – “travelling through the cruel lands and provinces for 14 years”-. The letter includes details on how the manuscript survived through different hazards.
Continuing, the Codex Calixtinus gives way to Book I, a collection of liturgical texts regarding the religious celebrations in Santiago including most of the medieval manuscript, particularly relevant after its theft from Cathedral in July 2011 and recovery exactly a year later. It continues to the book of miracles, the story of 22 miracles attributed to St. James. It is not until the third book when an introduction to the tradition of the pilgrimage begins with the story of the evangelization of the apostle and the transfer of his body to Galicia.
Book IV deals with the appearance of Santiago to Charlemagne, detailing over 28 pages, the entry of the King to the peninsula, the defeat of Roncesvalles and the death of Roland. Legend has it that James appeared to Charlemagne in a dream to persuade him to release his tomb from the Muslims. To help him the apostle guided him to the location, through a path of stars.
Closing the Codex Calixtino is the fifth book, the most famous, translated and praised of the entire volume. This is an extensive and comprehensive guide for pilgrims and describes the French Way, the enclaves, the customs of the towns and cities through which the itinerary passes and shrines that Walker should not miss. It also includes a series of practical tips for the traveller and warnings about the dangers they might encounter on their adventure to Compostela. Over 11 chapters, the Iter pro peregrinis ad Compostellam it reviews the days journeys, hospices, natural accidents that cross the route, the saints who’ rest ‘ in it, the city of Santiago of Compostela, the Cathedral, the grave, other churches in the capital of Galicia, and indications on how to accommodate the pilgrims. But also the author of the manuscript recounts on the pages, anecdotes from along the route and his different views on what he encountered along the way. Notable among these reflections for his impression of the inhabitants of northern Spain, he describes them as ” fierce -faced men who terrorize people with their barbarian tongues.” “The Basque people and those from Navarre are described as being full of evil, dark in complexion, of aberrant appearance, wicked, treacherous, disloyal and false.” Also he accused them of being thieves and murderers who ” eat, drink and dress like pigs” and in particular, complains about the food, he encourages readers not try ” the fish that the vulgar call catfish,” because according to the friar, those who ingest it runs the risk of “Being sick”.
The five books are complemented by an appendix that includes a repertoire of liturgical songs for big ceremonies in commemoration of St. James, 21 polyphonic compositions, which from a musical point of view are the most important part of the manuscript.
After being safeguarded for centuries in the Cathedral, the Church was at the point of losing this precious relic forever. On the 7th of July in 2011 the news announced the disappearance of the Codex Calixtinus. Two days before the archivists of the Cathedral of Santiago, alarmed, began to miss the book and alerted the authorities of the theft. They had to wait a whole year to recover it. On July 4th, the medieval jewel was returned to the temple and bibliographers of Compostela breathed a sigh of relief.
The theft of the Codex from the shielded chamber in the cathedral which houses the most valuable works of the archive, kept society and the police in suspense for twelve long months. Finally, research led agents to a garage in the town of Milladoiro (a town in the council of Ames, bordering Santiago) to a property owned by a former employee of the temple, a native of Compostela and electrician that had in his power, not only the manuscript but also other objects of great value, for years, had been stealing bit by bit from the sanctuary of the apostle and also had a sum of money amounting to more than one million euros.
The rigorous security system that protected the Codex was violated by the careless protection of the safe keys, placed in the lock, without any supervision.
During the first hours of uncertainty all pointed to two possible motives that could explain the disappearance of Calixtinus: Internal revenge, directed mainly at the dean of the cathedral and thus head of the archive, José María Díaz, or a robbery performed by any art collector. Some experts valued the codex to 10,000,000 euros and the famous art thief Erik el Belga explained that an operation could have been responsible for 150,000 euros, but without collaboration from inside, it was impossible to carry out successfully.
The police, with the help of specialists from the Cultural Heritage Brigade, plunged into a detailed study of almost 400 hours of CCTV from the 25 cameras that the cathedral had installed inside at the time of the robbery. With an added problem: in the room where they kept the manuscript there were no cameras, the closest ones were located in the access corridors. The operation included roadblocks undertaken by members of the Guardia Civil and the Guardia Nacional Republicana in Portugal.
After a month following the robbery, police maintained all lines of investigation open, there were theories regarding larceny theft, and even a kidnapping, taking advantage, according to researchers, of the busy movement inside the temple and the lack control over access to the interior and backpacks. During these days, the Archbishop of Santiago asked the thieves to return the Codex and the government ruled out offering a reward for its return. Three months later, the dean resigned as archivist of the cathedral, recognizing that the disappearance of the Codex was critical in his decision and, by all accounts, the keys to the box in which the book was preserved along with other documents were left in the lock.
On the 4th of July in 2012, the manuscript appeared wrapped in a plastic bag in a garage in Milladoiro. Pending the conclusion of the trial, the prosecutor asked for the thief to confess for stealing Codex, Manuel Fernández Castiñeiras was sentenced to a total of fifteen years in prison, half of what the Church asked, given that he was accused of stealing over a long period of time, between August 2000 until the first half of 2012, claims suggest that items taken from the safe would equate to 2,546,679 euros.
After its recovery, the Codex was returned to the Cathedral, but not for long. The absence of the manuscript gave way to an unusual curiosity about this medieval jewel and demands were made for a need to publicize its story and show it to all those so they could behold it with their own eyes. Thus, the council of Galicia organised a travelling educational exhibition on the history and contents of the Calixtinus, the cultural environment in which it was written, the mentality of that time, the cathedral and the city of Santiago in the twelfth century and a summary of the story of the Camino of Santiago and its cultural values. Meanwhile, the original, which for a time was exposed in the temple of Compostela, was subsequently transferred to the City of Culture. It is now back in the Cathedral of Santiago and, remains under new strengthened security measures.

According to Kaleme website, Hamid Ghassemi-Shall and his family have been informed of his imminent execution during this week’s visit at Evin Prison.
Hamid Ghassemi-Shall, 42, was arrested in 2008 while visiting his family, and was later charged with espionage.
He was sentenced to death in 2009. An Iranian court has rejected an appeal.
“Canada is gravely concerned by indications that the execution of Mr. Ghassemi-Shall may be carried out imminently,” Baird said in a joint statement Sunday with Diane Ablonczy, the junior minister for foreign affairs.
Baird called on the Iranian government to grant clemency to Ghassemi-Shall on compassionate and humanitarian grounds and to respect its international human rights obligations.
The Iranian-born Ghassemi-Shall emigrated to Canada after Iran’s 1979 revolution, and most recently lived in Toronto.
He is awaiting execution in Tehran’s notorious Evin prison, where another Canadian — photojournalist Zahra Kazemi of Montreal — was beaten, raped and killed in 2003.
Another Canadian resident, web programmer Saeed Malekpour of Richmond Hill, Ont., is also on death row in Evin prison. Malekpour, who was born in Iran, is charged with setting up a website that was used to post pornography. He maintains his innocence and says he was tortured into confessing to crimes against Islam.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper is also calling on Iran to spare the life of an Iranian-Canadian convicted of espionage and awaiting execution.
Harper warned there will be consequences if Hamid Ghassemi-Shall is executed.
Harper’s warning followed a similar statement by Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird who said Sunday that Ottawa is “gravely concerned” by indications that Ghassemi-Shall’s execution may be imminent.
“We urge Iran to reverse its current course and to adhere to its international human rights obligations,” Baird said.

There are indications that part of today's Santok near Gorzów Wielkopolski (in western Poland) is located on the site of early medieval cemetery. During the archaeological work accompanying the construction of sewage system, archaeologists found skeletons arranged in a way characteristic for medieval burials.
Archaeologists have unearthed more than 50 skeletons at the site of an early medieval cemetery revealed by the construction of sewage system [Credit: PAP/Lech Muszyński]
Santok, now a commune village with a linear settlement arrangement with breathtaking views of the basin of Warta and Noteć, with origins dating back to the eighth century - the time of the construction of the oldest castle. Piast stronghold was situated on the left bank of the Warta, at the mouth of the Noteć. On the right bank of the rivers, life went on in settlements.
Stanisław Sinkowski, Head of Archaeology at Lubuskie Museum in Gorzów conducting research in Santok told PAP that so far archaeologists discovered more than 50 skeletons.
He added that the work only covered the road line and the area of the former cemetery is presumably much larger. This is confirmed by the reports of Santok residents, who frequently find human remains on their estates during earthworks.
"We preliminarily date the burials at the cemetery to the tenth to thirteenth century. The cemetery was used for a long time, as the skeletons are found in layers. The east-west arrangement of the dead - in accordance with the then canon - confirms that we are dealing with an early medieval necropolis. For the time being we do not know whether only the inhabitants of settlements surrounding the stronghold were buried here, or the stronghold residents as well" - Sinkowski told PAP.
The uncovered parts of the cemetery indicate that people in the Middle Ages were buried in coffins, in wooden covering or wrapped in shrouds. During the study of burials archaeologists managed to find many items near the skeletons, including head ornaments typically worn by Slavic women - temple rings.
"One of the sets of temple rings is intriguing as they are made of silver. The woman, who owned them, certainly was a prominent person in the community. Burial with ornaments of precious metal may in fact be a sign of social status and prestige of a person"- added Sinkowski.
In addition to the temple rings, archaeologists are finding other items by with skeletons, including iron knives and clay pots. In one of the tombs they discovered an iron tip of a spear, and in another a spur made of the same material.
"The so-called inventory accompanying the burials is not impressive, but it gives us an idea about the development of civilization of the ancient Slavs inhabiting these areas" - said Sinkowski.
Skeletons extracted from the earth are secured for further anthropological research. It will allow to determine their sex, age, and in some cases, cause of death.
Sinkowski noted out that with existing knowledge and technology the range of studies of human bones can be much broader, but large funds would be needed for that.
In the history of Poland, Santok (ancient Satok) was an important centre from the tenth to the twelfth century. The fortified position of the stronghold, located on a trade route, meant that it became a castellany and a parish, and thus played an important role in the forming state of Mieszko I and Boleslaw the Brave. Gall Anonymous wrote about Santok that it was "an outpost and key of the kingdom".
In June 1978 the Castle Museum was opened in Santok as a branch of the Regional Museum in Gorzów Wielkopolski, which is now part of the Department of Archaeology of the Museum of the Lubusz Region.
The main attraction of the museum was an archaeological exhibition, which presented the history of early Santok based on the monuments from archaeological excavations in the years 1958-1965.
After the renovation of the museum building in 2005, new exhibition was opened, called "The history of The Stronghold in Santok". This exhibition, like the previous one, is based on finds obtained from studies after the war, but has been extended to include the collection of old German monuments.Source: PAP - Science and Scholarship in Poland [May 22, 2015]

Land Mine Detection and Indication using GPS and GSM
LANDMINES
land mine n.
An explosive device laid usually just below the surface of the ground.
A land mine is an explosive device designed to be placed on or in the ground to explode when triggered by an operator or the proximity of a vehicle, person or animal. The name originates from the practice of sapping, where tunnels were dug (much like mining) under enemy fortifications or forces. These tunnels ("mines") were first collapsed to destroy fortifications above, and later filled with explosives and detonated. Landmines generally refer to devices specifically manufactured for this purpose, as distinguished from improvised explosive devices (IEDs).
Landmines are explosive devices that are designed to explode when triggered by pressure or a tripwire. The purpose of mines when used by armed forces is to disable any person or vehicle that comes into contact with it by an explosion of fragments released at high speeds.
The exact number of landmines is unknown. However, it is estimated that approximately 70 million landmines and other unexploded ordnance (UXO) are buried in more than 80 countries worldwide.
Landmines can remain active more than 50 years after they are planted in the ground. For this reason, there is a continuing worldwide effort to rid the world of landmines.
We have designed a project in which we can able to track the position o f the land mines using the GPS and GSM and a metal detector.
Operation:
The vehicle is fitted with a Metal detector to sense the land mines. The vehicle will have a GPS Module which will receive the information from the satlite to know about the position of the vehicle (Lat itude and longtitude position). The vehicle will also have a Noikia GSM phone which will send information about the land mines positon to a remote PC through a cell phone. So that we can know the exact position of the mines.

Duxford Flying Legends 2016.
As is the norm at Duxford based air shows the flying was programmed to commence at 2pm prompt. Early indications were that weather was going to be against everyone, with low cloud, grey skies, strong winds and drizzle. As time moved forward and 2pm arrived the skies miraculously cleared revealing lovely blue skies, sun and fluffy clouds; an aviation photographers dream. Just before 2pm the rousing sound of Rolls Royce Merlin and Griffon engines could be heard along the crowd line as they began to taxi out down towards the end of the grass landing strip and ran up to full power to allow the oil in those V12 engines to warm up and circulate around the arterial passages around the famous pulsating heart of the Spitfire. Once cleared the Spitfire's roared off down the grass airfield and took to the air to form up, an evocative sight arcing back to Duxford’s days as an active airfield during World War Two. Once formed up and all systems checked the Spitfire's launched into their flying display with a sweep in from the left of the crowd line to begin their ''Tail Chase''.
July hails the midpoint of the U.K Air Show calendar, with what some may say is the World’s premier Warbird event ''Flying Legends''. Based at the Imperial War Museum Duxford in Cambridgeshire, The Fighter Collection brings together piston powered aircraft from across the globe to display to the adoring crowds, some of which themselves have travelled half way across the world to see the yearly spectacle. This specialist event displays all the grace, majesty and power these wonderful Flying Machines have to offer. Usually a strictly ''Piston Power'' only affair, this year was slightly different, with the inclusion of Jet Aircraft, but more on that revelation later. Flying Legends is a special kind of event, with the show ground taking you back to the 1940’s with re-enactors attired in period dress, the 1940’s Swing Style Vocals of the Manhattan Dolls, a Vintage Village with deck chair seating and Pimms Bar, and to top it off the mad cap antics of Laurel and Hardy with their Model T Ford.
love has not gone anywhere. Long may it continue.

With the sun hiding above the marine layer, we decided on a little trip through the backcountry (Happy Canyon/Figueroa Mountain). While initially I had planned to take some shots of the partial eclipse with the appropriate setup (and very briefly considered and then quickly rejected driving North to Oregon to view and photograph the total eclipse), I couldn't resist taking a few shots with the sun in the frame using a 12-24 zoom on a Sony A7II - there's no indication of the partial eclipse in either image. Lens produces nice sunstars though and amazingly little flare.
