Dr. Dave Schrader of Teradata, Inc. and Dr. Neeli Bendapudi, Professor of Marketing, Ohio State University's Fisher College of Business present at Initiative for Managing Services' Managing by the Numbers workshop on Feb. 26, 2010
The weekend arrives!
And what to do to fill it with?
You will not be surprised to hear that the day began with the usual hunting trip to Tesco, where we managed to spend £150, but that was with some wine and cider, but even still, very little else out of the ordinary.
What I should have been doing was preparing for two weeks in Denmark, but that is delayed by two weeks, so instead I try to revisit a couple of fairly local churches.
Jools would take a raincheck on churchcrawling.
Just the other side of Dover, through Rover, Kearsney and Temple Ewell is Alkham,, and high above the village is St Anthony.
It is five years since I was last here, and my task was to rerecord the windows, but to see it again.
Parking is tricky, so I leave the car at the recreation ground beside the partly dried up bed of the winterbourne, the Drellingore, and climb up to the rain road, dash across then up the short lane beside the Marquess of Granby to the church, whose graveyard was wonderfully overgrown and so a haven for wildlife.
I stopped to take a shot, and jumped out of my skin as a Labrador sniffed my legs as it was walked by.
I was miles away, I said to the owner.
Me too, said the owner.
The church was open, and cool and dark inside. I flick the lights on and begin to take my shots.
I had taken the "short cut" over the downs from Alkham, thinking that the church beside the radio transmitter would be easy to find, but the road took me from West Hougham to Elms Vale before I could turn back towards the church.
Then the "road" approached a cottage, and then turned ninety degree left and then right as though the building was placed in the way of the road. The owners have out a no entry sign in their courtyard to show approaching drivers that the road did not go straight on.
The lane was narrow, and climbed up the down, with a thick carpet of grass between little used wheeltracks, recent rains had turned some parts into a mudchute too.
As expected it was open, and parking was easy in the short dead end Church Lane.
I thought the light on the font under the tower was perfect.
Not as much as I thought to take as new, but a revisit is always good, and the big lends picks out details especially in the surprised expression of the lion on the Queen Anne coat of arms.
At that point, two for two, I should have turned for home, but convinced myself to try Sellinge, which is the other side of Hythe on the old A20. Maybe in summer it would be open on a Saturday morning?
It took half an hour to get there, and then find a parking space, only to see from the lychgate the sign on the porch declaring the church closed.
I returned to the car and drove back, but with Jubilee Way closed again due to a fuel spill, other routes were busy, taking me ten minutes to get past Kearsney Station and nearly half an hour to get up Whitfield Hill.
Back home then at one for a snack for lunch of pork pie, then settle down for an afternoon of football, where unbeaten Norwich were playing Rotherham who were without a win.
No contest then?
No. Norwich were 2-0 down at half time, looked better in the second half, but didn't really look like levelling.
Darn it.
But for the evening, we were going out.
Out.
For dinner.
Bev and Steve drove us into Deal, where we called into the Just Reproach for a swifter before going to the Dining Club where we had a fine tasting menu of:
1. Chorizo doughnut with smoked tomato jam.
2. Cauliflower soup.
3. Hake wrapped in bacon.
4. Wild mushroom butter chicken Kyiv.
5. Lemon tart.
6. Cheese board.
It was very nice indeed.
We walked back to their car, night had fallen and the late night drinkers were making merry, quite loudly.
Back home Mulder was waiting at the top of the drive, expecting some late night meow.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Picturesquely situated on a quiet bluff high above the main road, the simple flint exterior of Alkham church hides a remarkable surprise. From the south the building looks little different to many others in the region, but inside it immediately presents its trump card - a north aisle/chapel built in the thirteenth century which contains the finest blank wall arcading in any Kent church. This should be compared with the contemporary chancel arcading at Cooling and Woodchurch - in each designed to emphasise the importance of the (recently rebuilt) chancel. Here it served an altogether different purpose, competing with the nearby commandery of the Knights Hospitallers at Swingfield. At the west end of the nave, filling the tower arch, is a rather heavy but fine, wooden nineteenth century screen. The east window contains some fine nineteenth century glass. West tower, nave, chancel, north aisle, south porch

ALKHAM
LIES the next parish south-eastward from Liddon. THIS PARISH is situated about three miles westward from Dover, and about two miles from the high London road on the right hand. It lies very much unknown and unfrequented, among the hills, which are in this part of Kent very high and bold, consisting mostly of open and uninclosed grounds, which, as well as the deep vales between them, are without trees or hedge-rows, clumps of coppice woods being interspersed at distances here and there on them, the whole affording a most wild and romantic scene; but these deep vales and high mountains are much pleasanter to view at a distance, than to travel over, the roads being intolerably bad. The village of Alkham, with the church in it, is situated on a small knoll in the bottom of the valley, nearly in the middle of the parish. There are numbers of spreading elms growing throughout the village, which make a pleasing contrast to the open exposed country round it. At about half a mile's distance is the small hamlet, called, from its situation, South Alkham, which was once accounted a manor, having had owners which took their name from it. About half a mile northward from the village is Woolverton; and further on, Chilton, both which belonged for many years to the Wollet's, of Eastry; the latter was in 1683 the property of Simon Yorke, of Dover, merchant, who died that year, and was the father of the lord chancellor Hardwick; and of an elder son, Henry, to whom he gave Chilton, and it now belongs to his descendant Philip York, esq. of Denbighshire. At the south west boundary of the parish is Evering, with a small street of the same name; and at the south-east is the hamlet of Drelingore, where the spring of the Nailbourn rises, which occasionally flows northward as far as that head of the river Dour which rises in this parish, at Chilton, about a mile and an half from it, and runs thence till it meets the other branch of that river, a little below Castney court, in River. The soil throughout the parish is in general chalk, and the lands exceedingly poor and barren.
THE LORDSHIP of the barony of Folkestone claims paramount over this parish, as being within the hundred of Folkestone, subordinate to which is THE MANOR OF ALKHAM, alias MALMAINES ALKHAM, which was part of those lands which made up the barony of Averenches, of which it was held as one knight's fee, as of the castle of Dover, by the performance of ward to it, by the family of Malmaines, whose principal seat was at Waldershare; the last of which name, who was possessed of it about the reign of king Edward II. was Lora, widow of John de Malmains; she afterwards remarried Roger de Tilmanstone, who held this manor in her right. After which it passed into a family who took their name from their residence in this parish; one of whom, John Alkham, descended from Peter de Alkham, who possessed lands here as early as the reign of king Henry III, was possessed of it in the beginning of king Henry IV.'s reign, in the 4th year of which he was charged for it towards the subsidy for the marriage of Blanch, the king's daughter; from which payment several parcels of land in this county were afterwards called by the name of Blanch lands. In this family of Alkham the manor of Malmains continued till the beginning of king Henry VII.'s reign, when Peter Alkham passed it away to John Warren, gent. from which name it was alienated, about the latter end of the next reign of king Henry VIII. to Sir Matthew Browne, of Beechworth-castle, whose descendant, of the same name, sold it, at the very latter end of queen Elizabeth's reign, to Lushington, who conveyed it to Broome, and in the 22d year of James I. Robert Broome, S. T. B. of Ringwold, alienated it to John Browne, of Alkham, whose descendant in 1656 passed it away to Alban Spencer, esq. of Walmer castle, and his descendant of the same name left three daughters his coheirs; Sarah, married to Richard Halford, gent. of Canterbury; Susannah, to Mr. Robert Buck, of Covent-garden, mercer; and Mary, to the Rev. Robert Gunsley Ayerst, clerk, and they jointly succeeded to this estate. Mr. Halford died possessed of his third part in 1766, and left it to his only son Richard, who sold his third part of it, to Mr. Smith, of Alkham, the present possessor of it. Mr. Buck died s. p. and by will devised his third part to his niece Jane Ayerst, daughter of the Rev. Robert G. Ayerst, by Mary his wife above-mentioned, who is now entitled to it; and the Rev. Mr. Ayerst, in right of his wife, is the present possessor of the remaining third part of it. A court baron is held for this manor, which is held of the manor of Folkestone, by knight's service, and ought to have inclosed fifteen perches of Folkestone park. It pays a rent to the ward of Dover castle.
There is an estate in this parish, probably once part of the above-mentioned manor, and still called Malmains farm, which was for many years, and till lately, the property of the Graydon's, of Fordwich.
ALKHAM is within the ECCLESIASTICAL JURISDICTION of the diocese of Canterbury, and deanry of Dover.
The church, which is dedicated to St. Anthony the Martyr, is a handsome building, consisting of three isles and two chancels, having a tower steeple, with a low pointed turret on it, in which hang three bells. The north isle is shut out by boarding from the rest of the church, and made no use of at present, to which the school now kept in the chancel might be removed, and have no kind of communication with that part of the church appropriated for divine service, which would prevent that unseemly and indecent resort which it is at present subject to. In the chancel are several memorials for the Slaters, lessees of the parsonage; and on the south side, against the wall, is an antient tomb of Bethersden marble.
¶The church of Alkham, with the chapel of Mauregge, or Capell as it is now called, belonging to it, was given by Hamon de Crevequer to the abbot and convent of St. Radigund, together with the advowson of it, to hold in free, pure, and perpetual alms. It was appropriated to that abbey about the 43d year of king Henry III. anno 1258, and was afterwards, anno 8 Richard II. valued among the temporalities of the abbey at fourteen pounds. In which state this church and advowson remained till the dissolution of the abbey, which happened in the 27th year of king Henry VIII. when it was suppressed by the act of that year, as being under the clear yearly value of two hundred pounds, and their lands and possessions given to the king, who granted the scite of it, with the whole of its possessions, that year, to archbishop Cranmer, in exchange for other lands, who in the same year exchanged them back again with the king, being enabled so to do by an act then specially passed for that purpose; but in the deed of exchange, among other exceptions, was that of all churches and advowsons of vicarages; by virtue of which, the appropriation of the church of Alkham, together with the advowson of the vicarage, remained part of the possessions of the see of Canterbury, as they do at this time, his grace the archbishop of Canterbury being now entitled to them.
The vicarage of Alkham, with the chapel of Ferne, alias Capell, annexed to it, is valued in the king's books at eleven pounds, and the yearly tenths at Il.2s. per annum.

Managed to get on Lichen It (5.8). Luckily no one has made it over here, but before I even finished leading it there were groups showing up at this area and putting up 2 ropes at a time. Gets crowded REAL quick over here. After Lichen It, Tracy took off to go climb harder stuff w/ Azure and Mac. Crystal and I headed over to an area to the left of Combination Blocks and climbed a couple routes that we didn't find in the books (5.7? & 5.8?). While climbing that heard my name called. Looked over and it was Tony Fuentes and Jeff Roach on that fun little shelf on the Sky Chimney route. Shortly after heard my name called again and it was Ben climbing Wherever I May Roam w/ his brother and his roommate Justin. Is my helmet such a give away? After that Crystal and I were able to climb 3 more routes back in the Cinnamon Slab area as the crowd dissipated and then finished off on Bunny Face. We hit the bridge to cross the river on our way out of the park as darkness fell, filled our water, and drove back to Skull Hollow for BBQ & beer. Crystal was itching to start into the bottle of champagne she brought to celebrate a full and challenging day. Glad we got in as much as we did today, because it did end up raining next day. So we packed it up and headed back to P-town next morning.

Managed a good position for the front set of steering pulleys - they're mounted on a 5/16 bolt which works out very well for setting one slightly higher than the other which is just what I wanted. I got this in place and stopped working. (A miniscule achievement in the grand scheme of the project, I know. But since it went on exactly the way I wanted on the very first try... I figured I should quit while I'm ahead.)
Managed an hour out this afternoon once the rain had eventually stopped !!

Climate Change will impact and is thought to already be impacting the composition, extent and distribution of forests and pastures in the Great Caucasus. Contributing factors to the degradation of forest resources in Azerbaijan’s Greater Caucasus landscape include overgrazing of livestock, inappropriate tree harvest for fuel wood and timber, and non-timber forest product harvest. Maintaining current poor management of pastures and forests will continue to degrade these resources and reduce their resilience. As the system becomes more degraded the pressures will increase on pastures and forests threatening livelihoods and continuing a cycle of poverty and poor management. Although climate change will be quite favorable for winter pastures, their area will not expand and might even diminish. This will be mainly caused by soil erosion and an increasing use of lands for crops as well as increased evaporative demands.
