We spend over $450 for beer, water, soda, food, snacks, and kitchen expendables. Fortunately, the two gas refrigerators were large and held all of our perishables plus the worms and leeches.

Urban Camo Ski Mask Project
These artworks are build from pieces of paper sourced mostly from the streets of Amsterdam. These bits and pieces are mixed up with torn screenprints, magazines and comicbooks. They are glued in the shape of a ski mask forming an urban camouflage pattern. The eyes and mouthpieces are made of laser-etched and or laser-cut photo’s, comics and logo’s.
Ski masks to me are a symbol of the current struggles around the globe. The news is dominated by men wearing ski masks whether it be terrorists or the special forces battling them.

Coast Guard Station Marblehead, Ohio, opened its doors to roughly 200 visitors who toured the âhauntedâ facility Oct. 28 and 29, 2016. The event was free but guests were asked to bring non-perishable food items to be given to local food banks, and they delivered; more than 270 items were collected.

Manila, Philippines – The All in One Logistics Network (AiO) just celebrated their inaugural Annual General Meeting (AGM) in the Philippines. As this was a special occasion, both members and non-members were invited to attend. Although there were no attendees physically on site from the Americas, the attendees from Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia were very well represented.
The meeting began on the eve of September 13th at the Makati Shangri-La with a cocktail party to register and welcome everybody. The cocktail party also acted as an ice-breaker of sorts, allowing everyone to mingle at their own pace while making that all important first impression. Everyone was smiling, laughing and, perhaps most importantly, just plain having a good time together.
On the morning of September 14th, The real AGM began. After a quick registration, it was time to move onto the presentations portion of the AGM.
Presenters were:
•Gary Dale Cearley, Managing Director, Advanced International Networks Ltd (AIN) / Executive Director, All-in-One Logistics Network (AiO)
•Dominic Harrington, Managing Director, D&S Harrington (Australia)
•Ahsanullah Momen, CEO, Ease Logistics (Bangladesh)
•Tom K. De Vera, General Manager, EMCS (Philippines) - Presented a video on the Philippines
After a break for lunch, the attendees went straight into their one-to-one meetings which were, at a distance, quite lively. Even the people who had an open block, soon grew restless and sought out other companies to share details. The 30 minute blocks of time flew by until it was time to break and prepare for the evening’s banquet which was also held at the Makati Shangri-La.
The final day of the AiO AGM took place on September 15th and, aside from a lunch break, entailed a rigorous gauntlet of one-to-one meetings. The attendees never tired, being fuelled by coffee and snacks, made the most of each minute. The success of an AGM comes chiefly from the efforts and enthusiasm of the attendees. Judging from the cooperation of all involved, this inaugural AiO AGM was hands down and without a doubt a big success.
"In all the years that I have been in the international logistics networking business this was far and away the best network launching AGM I have had the pleasure to be a part of," said Gary Dale Cearley, Executive Director of the All-in-One Logistics Network. "Everything came together. I was proud of the quality of membership and how they took to making business with one another. It is a clear sign of being on the right path."
“I couldn’t be more pleased with this event, my colleagues, and the attendees,” added Trevis J. Cunningham AIN Events Coordinator, “I think we hit the sweet spot by not having too few or too many attendees. We not only earned new business opportunities, but more importantly gained new lifelong friends.”
Red Wolf Global, (Philippines and Thailand), was the event's Admiral sponsor. World Line Logistics (India), was a signage sponsor. Corporate sponsors were Volga-Dnepr Group and Wisetech Global. The dates and location of the 2016 AiO AGM will be announced in the near future.
This is where the non-perishable goods live sometimes.
And sometimes they can also live on the fireplace mantle or in our bedroom. Depending on the feng shui of the hour.

-Story and photo by Jen Rovanpera, Archaeologist for the BLM Applegate Field Office
The BLM Applegate Field Office just completed stabilizing and preserving a 1930s root cellar on the historic Bitner Ranch located in Washoe County, Nevada. The root cellar was built in the 1930s to store food and other perishables. It consists of a large cavity (cellar) built into the side of a hill just east of the ranch house. Juniper poles were laid across the top of the cavity, the covered with hay from the nearby meadow. Dirt was then piled onto the roof into order to insulate it further. A small wooden structure with steps leads down into the cellar. Once inside, the maximum height of the cellar is about 6 feet. Shelving units were built along three of the walls.
Little is known about the beginnings of Bitner Ranch. A structure in Badger Meadows appears on a survey map as early as 1873/1874; however the land was not patented from the state of Nevada until 1900. Based on the style of barbed wire, some of the older corrals and fences were probably built sometime between 1874 and 1892. The ranch hosts a ranch house, a black smith shop with a bunk house for workers, a milk barn, a root cellar, an outhouse, corrals, and a small animal pen. Most of the remaining structures on the property were built in the 1920s, except for the root cellar which was built in the 1930s and the milk barn which might be one of the oldest standing structures on the ranch.
The Bureau of Land Management acquired the Bitner Ranch in 1995. Bitner Ranch is an excellent example of a high desert, homestead era ranch and one of the few remaining ranches to be managed by the Bureau of Land Management in northwestern Nevada. The goal is to preserve the historic ranch, continue research, and establish an interpretive center about the history and wildlife of the meadow.
The preservation project included removing the dirt that had caved into the cellar through the collapsed roof, stabilizing the wooden structure, and rebuilding the steps into the cellar. The project was completed in two weeks by Jed Mauldin, Dane Mauldin, and Kody Smith of S.T. Rhoades Construction, Inc.

Matthew Project
The Mathew Project began in 2005. We took our name from Matthew 25:35, where
Jesus talks about meeting the needs of those less unfortunate. We began
under the direction of Father Steve Dewey. We are now under the auspices of
Father Richard Dalton. This project was designed to reach out and touch
those in our communities who found themselves temporarily in need of
assistance with perishable and non-perishable food items. For my part I
overseer the inventory on our supplies. Through The Banner, I make those
needs known and then the people respond with those food items. With the
pantry in our home, it makes my job easier to keep track of what the need
is. All deliveries are made directly to the people. There is no pick up
from our home.
Samaritan Project
The Samaritan Project is the financial partner of this duo project. Once a
month or every six weeks, I place a Samaritan envelope in our bulletins
requesting financial help from our people. This project has provided
numerous ways in which we have helped people who find themselves in a
temporary financial bind. Among the various ways we have given assistance
has been in car repairs, gas cards, utility bills, rent, transportation to
doctor appointments (no money is given to the recipient, all is paid through
me for the actual service needed). This outreach is a hand up not a hand
out. I am privileged to be a part of serving our community within this
project. I believe we are carrying out Jesus’ commands to reach out and
touch those who are less fortunate.
One of the ways in which Christ The King is involved in this community
outreach is through the Holiday Wish Program. My contact is Karen Foster of
the Department of Human Services. Through this program we are assigned the
number of people we think we can serve. We are given a list of their needs,
adults/children, that have signed up, and then we go from there. I let our
people know what to buy, and then on a given date, we deliver those gifts
with a full Thanksgiving/Christmas/Easter meal. Nothing gives me more
pleasure than to see the joy on the faces of people when the delivery is
made.
I am privileged to have been in on the genesis of these outreach programs.
These projects are on-going and God willing we will be able to continue to
be the hands and feet of Jesus. I have an active part in facilitating the
coordination between these two projects, but in reality, it is all of us
together, a family, that makes it work.

A major problem with green leafy vegetables and spices like bitter leaf (Vernonia amydalina), Okongobong (Telifera occidentalis), Erru (Gnetum africanum), capsicum pepper and mushrooms is that they are seasonal and highly perishable. During the pick season they are often sold at give-away prices and some are simply wasted in the villages, yet people pay a lot of money for them in towns and cities.
When cooked, dried vegetables can taste similar to fresh ones; they are nutritious (rich in vitamins, beta-carotene and minerals), tasty and inexpensive and can help to reduce hunger and malnutrition. Minerals and vitamins are essential in the diet of everyone, but especially so for children, nursing and pregnant women, the elderly and sick.
This pilot project intends to build two types of solar dryers to enable peasant women in and around Tombel reduce post harvest loss of vegetables and spices from about 40% to less than 10%. It intends to train a carpenter and a welder on the construction of both types of dryers respectively and organize a one day workshop with peasant women to demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the dryers in conserving vegetables and spices.
The solar dryers are also needed to add value to the crops, increase their shelf life and enhance food security and the farm family income of peasant women in my community.

An early form of refrigeration, the spring house used cold water form the stream to help preserve milk, cheese, and other perishables. These items were stored in crocks and placed into the running water. The upper level offered a space for cool dry storage. The spring house also provided another source of water.
