The Pata Department Store in Pinklao has a zoo on its top two floors. They keep a gorilla there.

The director of Bangkok's Pata Zoo discusses the future of gorilla Bua Noi

 

For decades, controversy has surrounded the zoo on the rooftop of Pata Mall in Bang Phlat. But last August the zoo’s license was renewed despite netizens’ efforts to shut it down. Most of the criticism has been directed at the living conditions of Bua Noi, a 27-year-old female gorilla. Here, Kanit Sermsirimongkol, Pata Zoo’s director, discusses problems with Thailand’s zoo industry, and reveals his plans for Bua Noi’s future.

Do you see a problem with the conditions in which the animals at Pata Zoo are kept?

 

Our rooftop zoo is not a problem. Before opening, we only selected animals that were suitable for a rooftop zoo; we consulted zoologists and veterinarians about which species we could possibly raise under these conditions. They have been treated well. The enclosures are kept clean by our staff. The floor for Bua Noi’s enclosure is concrete because soil in Southeast Asia can absorb bacteria and generate the infection known as soilborne melioidosis, which is fatal to gorillas.

 

Do you sympathize with the concerns of animal welfare activists who criticize an indoor zoo that keeps primates in isolated confinement?

 

No, I don’t. Especially people who believe everything they see on the internet and help spread wrong information. We call them lok-suay (blind optimistics); people whose single-mindedness thinks that animals should not be kept in enclosures. They saw the picture of her on the internet and assume she's depressed. The gorilla looks sad because it is how she looks. Just like humans. Some have a sad face. Some are beautiful with a hint of sadness. Some have a happy face. It’s the same with animals, too. People just don't seem to get it. The lok-suay don’t just have problems with us but with other zoos too, no matter how well they treat their animals. It’s these people who started an online campaign to try and destroy us. Government officers came here and checked and found that we take good care of our animals, so the claims have been dismissed.

 

Is the zoo profitable?

 

We get by. You know that running a zoo is not the kind of business that gives huge profits every year. We have to admit, the zoo business in Thailand is not in a perfect condition.

 

What does Bua Noi’s future hold?

 

We have been taking care of Bua Noi for more than 20 years. We treat her like our own daughter. But, eventually we will have to find her a suitable new home. Bua Noi has been under our care since she was a baby, so immediately releasing her back to the wild is not a proper solution. It takes a lot of hard work to teach an animal how to survive on its own after years living in an enclosure. But it is crucial. Other zoos have done it while monitoring the animal’s well-being in the wild. I strongly hope that we are capable of doing it, and that she can do it too.

2 Timothy 3:16,17 NKJV " All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work."-------------------------------------------------------------------------Every new device comes with an instruction manual. Some people will always read the manual first so that they have some idea of what to do. Others will ignore the manual, and just try and figure it out on their own. Do you know that we all have an instruction manual for life? It's the Bible! [ Romans 15:4] " For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope."----- Everything we need to know about salvation, living a Godly life, and maintaining our faith is in the Bible. The men and women we read about were just like us; They had faults, illness, doubts, and fears to deal with. The Bible is an immovable anchor in the storms of life. No other book has the inspiration, truth, and power of the word of God. [ Hebrews 4:12] " For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit and, of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart."---------------- The Bible is the book for everyone. It is revelation, inspiration, and communication of the eternal, living, and powerful God!

We had our usual late winter/early spring break in Costa Adeje, Tenerife recently. I took the camera gear and talked about hiring a car for a change to get around and see the island. We haven’t ventured far for quite a while. In the end I didn’t, it was dull and warm for five days and I just couldn’t be bothered with the hassle of car hire. Subsequently I just saw the same things that I’ve seen lots of times before and I didn’t take many photographs. We walked over a 140 miles, which is a lowish number for us these days and I had a camera with me at all times but I really didn’t get the urge to take photos. Things improved for the last five days, we were there for eleven nights, I’ve never had a holiday longer than this, and I got out took photos on an evening a couple of times. There was a couple of nice sunsets but I’ve got almost identical photos from previous trips. The old Caterpillar 977L was one of the highlights, mainly because, as a crawler shovel driver, I used to want one.

Education is the goal of this young man,encoureging ather's is his destiny.

Qoraaga: Abdirasaq Itaqile

 

INTRODUCTION

 

First education or the academic institution may be defined as a set of organized processes designed to transmit knowledge and skills to develop mental abilities. Really education is modern societies serves at least eight different purposes namely:

 

1-Transmission of culture

 

2-Teaching of values

 

3- The promotion of social mobility

 

4-Certification

 

5- Job training

 

6-Establishing social relationships

 

7-Politcal socialization

 

8-Baby-sitting

 

Education is a sound investment for many reasons including economic grounds. In the third world governments spend a large proportion of their budget on education which seemed to them the most profitable form of investment. In Somaliland by contrast government spends half of its budget (50%) on security and very small portion to the schooling especially primary schooling to produce basic literacy and numeracy through out the population.

 

Actually the educational system of Somaliland was copied from the previous colonial experience and this hindered the country's educational policy since adjustment compatible with our indigenous needs which requires lengthy, torturous attitudinal and institutional change.

 

SOLSA argues the key to better future for our country depends on governments' control of our own educational system.

 

It's clear as crystal that the ministry of education has no tangible policy for our education and the ministry's directorate of planning which is in charge of formulating educational policy is not working and this made our own educational system haphazard.

 

The statement of Arnold Anderson in the book (ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND POST PRIMARY EDUCATION) should be applicable to the educational policy of our country which states as follows: "in formulating educational policy every society must compromise among three goals

 

* Efficiency in allocating training to individuals most likely to profit from it.

 

· Equity in opening opportunities for education impartially to various groups

 

· And free choice of educational careers to maximize motivation and flexibility"

 

"Compromise" suggests that efficiency, equity and freedom of choice are in that sequence, the important elements necessary for sound educational system.

 

If these three elements can't be attained in equal proportion, priority must be given to the criteria of efficiency

 

In our country the financial realities and sometimes poor judgment make it impossible for our educational system to balance effectively these three elements. For instance, Somaliland educational system in implementing equity and freedom of choice for student's sacrificed efficiency. This result was of course not intentional on the part of our educational policy makers but was unavoidable. Inadequate financial resources and the crippling factor of mismanagement compound the disparity between intention and achievement.

 

The efficiency element sometimes necessitates the hiring of educational personnel from distant countries;

 

Heavy financial requirements involved in such a case makes impossible for our country to fulfill the policy although it’s the country's ultimate benefit contributing to the fulfillment of our education goals.

 

The equity element is also achieved by having a free educational system open to all citizens at all levels.

 

Over the last 17 years since the inception of Somaliland's sovereignty and the re-establishment of educational institution for independent democratic country was accomplished thus replacing the dictator policy of censoring publications prohibiting the spread of information to suppress alternative ideas and facts and abolishment of informal education as a result of this shift towards democracy in Somaliland the private education sector took root in Somaliland and reached up to standard thus surpassing the public education sector.

 

The private schools has been booming and flourishing because they confer special advantage on to students from elite backgrounds, also private schools provide better education than public schools because of high tuition rates.

 

SOLSA envisions that in the near future the public education sector might vanish with out trace if not saved and the private education sector will become the only educational institution operating in the country and therefore would result that the only well-heeled families to buy better schools for their offspring than can poor families.

 

If we look the other side of the coin virtually private schools adopted the curriculum of foreign countries such as the UK, SUDAN AND EGYPT and this will have an adverse effect on to the future of our young generation since the ministry of education doesn't recognize the certificates issued by the most of private schools

 

Viewing the educational system of our country from another perspective SOLSA suggests that an important problem prevailing in the country should be solved, namely the cultural gap resulting from great emphasis on secular education on one hand and the neglect of religious education on the other hand.

 

Islamic culture is strong in our country but the ministry of education failed to avoid the persistent problem of the modernization of our educational system at the expense of religion.

 

In Somaliland religious courses in the primary and secondary schools are weak and inadequate, and at the university level no religious courses are offered except to the students of Islamic faculty.

 

SOLSA recommends that religious courses should be taught at primary and high schools with full seriousness and at the university level reasonable religious courses should be taught along with secular courses in all years because "Islam as a way of life" must be accessible to the educated and uneducated people alike.

 

The assumption is that religion finds this way to their souls and once this is achieved psychological stability is attained ,consequently the pursuit of all activities is rendered much easier and can be approached with full concentration even after reaching the highest levels of education in various fields .a true Muslim invariably remain faithful to his religion.

 

The current educational system of Somaliland is based on a primary level with eight grades follows by a secondary level with four grades and a university level.

 

PRIMARY SCHOOLING

 

Primary schooling had more impact than any other period of schooling, reading, writing and arithmetic opens doors for people that stayed open through out their lives .also primary schooling is virtually necessary condition for the development of critical thinking for life in democratic society.

 

in the pre-colonial era there were no primary schools in our country and the few existed ones were kuranic teaching schools which often run by religious leaders as a way of promoting Islamic faith and social values .The arrival of British colonialism in Somaliland and the subsequent expansion of British rule over the hinterlands of our country brought about the establishment of the first primary schools.

 

Previously primary schools were confined to urban centers and their curriculum was based on British curriculum. English and Arabic languages were the language of instruction as the Somali language wasn't written. The military coup in 1969 and siyad bare's approach of scientific socialism changed the educational system of the country. With the writing of Somali language in Latina script in 1972 replaced the English language and became the language of instruction.

 

During siyad bare's rule, primary schooling became wide spread and the number of illiterate declined

 

The downfall of siyad bare's regime and the subsequent inception of Somaliland in 1991 primary schooling were revived mainly through the private initiative of the trained teachers because the three year long civil war devastated all educational infrastructures.

 

In 1996/1997 the government took over the public schools and started paying salaries to the teachers.

 

Actually there are three levels of education in the primary schooling .first is the pre-schooling level, which is small sector of educational activity mainly concerned teaching kuran the children but now this level doesn’t exist.

 

Previously students' enrolment to the primary schooling hinged on how many surats of kuran do the student know and unless student passes kuranic exam he/she wouldn’t get in to the primary.

 

Today primary schooling enrolment process depends on merely if the student has the tuition fee and the above mentioned factor was omitted.

 

Secondly there is elementary level which caters for the educational needs of children from the age of six to twelve and thirdly there is intermediate level which caters for children from twelve to fifteen.

 

In fact The number of pupils has been increasing year by year and therefore the number of students out proportioned the existing classes and this forced the ministry of education to make to shifts (morning and after noon)but this done nothing to reduce the burden .

 

Really if you visit primary schools you can see 90 students learning one class and this has caused the teacher to lose the control of the class hence the teacher cannot classify the best and worst performing students, what is more the over crowded classes pose health problem because contagious disease can spread easily through the students .

 

Emphatically physical education which is the sport and physical activity taught as a school subject has been left out and it had an adverse effect on to the students because many of them developed bad habits such as chewing khat smoking cigarette and became dropouts.

 

The ministry of education defied the conventional wisdom of the English adage" the sound mind is the sound body "by failing to fulfill the PE subject in the primary schools.

 

To top it all the ministry of education in collaboration with the ministry of sports failed to implement the annual sports tournament of primary schools which has the work of social interaction.

   

SECONDARY SCHOOLING

 

With the spread of primary education comes an increasing demand for secondary schooling as well ,and in most parts of the world this schooling is now available to the majority of young people .

 

With secondary education come skills related to citizenship, people become sufficiently informed to become active in their local communities and to discuss certain political issues.

 

Students not only learn specific facts in high schools they learn to learn, they acquire a framework of background information in to which they can fit into a new facts.

 

In 1996 the ministry education opened the doors of first secondary schools which haven't been operational since the civil war in 1988 actually in the world there are comprehensive high schools for both vocational students and those who are preparing for university.

 

The purpose of this trend is to avoid shutting off options for students and those who could benefit from academic instruction, but in Somaliland this kind of comprehensive high schools doesn't exists because the vocational training schools are not operational.

 

Emphatically the ministry of education failed to monitor the enrolment process of high schools and therefore a great number of students who haven’t completed or failed the intermediate exams got in through the back door every year by bribing the principles.

 

Every year hundreds of students fail the final exam in secondary schools while another hundreds of students pass with grade "D" which is not recognized grade and this a clear sign to the ministry's inability to stem the tide by improving the quality of education in secondary schools. The secondary schools in Somaliland have all the infrastructures of education such as text books and science labs but the latter has no use for students since they have learnt theoretically as a result of the teacher's lack of practical help.

 

Somaliland has the biggest discrepancies between the best and worst performing students, they learn badly because they are taught badly

 

One approach would have bridged the gap of discrepancy if the ministry of education had implemented which is streaming or tracking i.e. putting of students in groups according to their ability.

 

In a net shell the ministry of education can't improve the quality of secondary schools with out also doing something about improving the academic standard of the teachers; they are two sides of the same coin.

 

HIGHER EDUCATION

 

University level education usually is more specialized than secondary schools though some areas of study are more specialized than others higher education mainly takes place in universities and other institutes where research is carried out and new ideas are generated. And the university is one of the most important places in industrial society not for its teaching function but also for it's creation of new knowledge.

 

The idea of establishing the first higher institution ( AMOUD UNIVERSITY) was conceived by the intellectuals and elders of Somaliland particularly of the AWDAL region it was formally proposed in a workshop in BORAMA on august 6 1996. The workshop agreed to the proposal and adopted a resolution for the establishment of AMOUND UNIVERSITY.

 

Amoud University officially started functioning in September 1997 with the faculties of education and business administration.

 

Three years later university of Hargeisa was inaugurated with the faculties of education and business administration.

 

The inauguration of Hargeisa University coincided with the graduation of the first patch of secondary schools in Somaliland.

 

The above-mentioned universities in Somaliland have one thing in common; they offer the same faculties and the profession programs such as engineering, medicine and applied science are absent, although medicine is in its embryonic stage both in Hargeisa and Amoud universities. It would be a right step towards the right direction if they diversify (to complement not to compete).

 

The management of both Hargeisa and Amoud universities are working hard to upgrade the quality of our universities though still they can't claim to be universities with internationally acknowledged and respected standards of academic and technical excellence in the fields they offer.

 

In addition to that our universities have no full cooperation with foreign universities and other academic institutions through scientific exchange and scholarships as a result of the country's lack of diplomatic recognition.

 

The government's expenditure on higher education is not sufficient according to the expenses of our universities, so that every student pays a monthly fee of $40.

 

The tuition fees are very exorbitant according to the income of our people and many impoverished students gave up hope to pursue university level education as a result of tuition fees.

 

As a matter of fact there are no rigid entrance requirements to Somaliland universities and this will have an impact on the future graduates.

 

For instance most students enrolled for medicine in both Hargeisa and Amoud universities haven’t got high grades in the secondary schools exam and you can see grade "C" and "D" students learning medicine in our universities, what a mess.

 

In our universities in order to maintain high standard students must posses specified academic qualification for admission, this policy is formed for it ensures the universities remain a serious institution of higher learning rather than allowing to be used as a boarding house for unqualified and uninterested students.

 

Finally there is another problem prevailing in our universities which is the number of students is increasing so rapidly and therefore out proportioning the existing classes and the lack of extension plans in our government.

 

THE CURRICULUM AND TEACHING MEHTODOLOGY

 

Curriculum is defined as a presentation of knowledge and organized learning experience.

 

The organized experience are presented in components that include goals and objectives content, method of delivery and the technology required to deliver the educational content.

 

The school curriculum is viewed as a sub system of society because the appropriate content to be taught is determined by needs of a society upon which the curriculum development policy is based.

 

In our curriculum there are too many subjects and this is requires more time to cover and more time the learners to process and reflect on what has been learnt and relate it to what they already know, but the increasing in shifts reduce the number of hours in instruction by half and this causes the goal and objective contents of the curriculum to be omitted leaving unbridgeable gap. In Somaliland subjects like Math's, science, history, geography, and physical education are all taught together. The plan for this kind of education the curriculum is called an integrated skills curriculum because the teachers have integrated the skills or put all the skills in one lesson around topics.

 

An integrated skills curriculum prepares children for real life but for instance in North America schools; students study each skill separately so that students have separate classes in all subjects.

 

This is called back-to-basic curriculum which helps students prepare for university work.

 

If we glance the teaching methodology, issues related to methodology have to do with the following questions.

 

a) Which is the most appropriate way if teaching?

 

b) Which is the most appropriate way of acquiring knowledge?

 

To answer these two questions there are two ways of teaching:

 

Teacher-centered approach.

 

Learner-centered approach.

 

Available resources and the force of tradition determine which method to be adopted and with what result.

 

Traditional teacher-centered teaching method tends to be more widely practiced in our country despite teacher in-service programs in learner-centered methodology.

 

Instructional and learning resources such as textbooks and other visual and audio visual teaching equipments associated with learner-centered teaching/learning are often in short supply coupling with the demanding class organization and control that such methods require.

 

In the developed world schools use modern technology such as television sets computers and VCRs so that lessons are more interesting because of educational videos.

 

For example science education in JAPAN is technology based children learn the application (use) of science before they learn the principles.

 

At last SOLSA suggests that ministry of education should come up a new approach to education alternative to traditional schools and traditional ways of learning.

 

CONCLUSION

 

In conclusion SOLSA recommends that the ministry of education should make attitudinal and institutional change in the country's educational system by seeking an advice from the most advanced educational systems of the world in order to gear the system's needs to the country's requirements.

New Zealand's first frozen meat export was sent to England on 15 February 1882. This was a turning point in New Zealand's economic and farming history, providing a profitable outlet for the country's surplus sheep by the mid-1890s, lifting the country out of economic depression. The industry grew quickly: in 1895 New Zealand exported 2.3 million sheep carcasses; in 1900, 3.3 million; and in 1910, 5.8 million. Frozen exports of lamb, butter and cheese would flourish as New Zealand established itself as 'Britain's farmyard'.

 

The 1882 voyage was made on the Dunedin, but it was not all plain sailing. Sparks from the engine that drove the refrigerator caught the sails alight twice. Captain Whitson had to clear out the ducts for the cold air that kept the cargo frozen as they became blocked by ice. Crew members had to pull Whitson out of the hold by a rope tied around his ankles, and resuscitate him on deck. In 1890, while en route to the United Kingdom, the Dunedin disappeared, along with the 35 on board. It's likely that the ship hit an iceberg off Cape Horn.

 

The photograph above demonstrates the legacy of that first sailing in 1882. Frozen shipping has been, and remains an important part of New Zealand's economy, and way of life. The photograph shows frozen mutton at the Freezing Works, Hawke's Bay Farmers Meat Co., Hastings, January 1947.

The pork chop was supposed to take 20 minutes, a fact the waiter warned me about. That's OK, I had no place else to be. But it took more than 30 minutes, so the waiter said we would get a free dessert. Not necessary, but as long as he was offering, I figured we'd take advantage. So we scrolled up and down the dessert menu to pick our freebie, and landed on the profiteroles.

 

"Profiterole" is a French word meaning "very difficult to eat". Cutting into these with the fork caused ice cream to spill out, and the chocolate sauce didn't make them any easier to break down, so we ended up with a plate full of ice-cream soup before we were done. Not a bad problem to have, in fact if you have to choose a problem, a plate of delicious sweet liquid could hardly be the worst.

 

But the check came, and I saw we were being charged for the dessert. An oversight, no doubt. But when I asked the waiter what happened to his offer of a free dessert, he said, "Oh, I was going to give you a piece of ice-cream cake to take home." In other words, we were now on the hook for the profiteroles. I wasn't going to make a fuss over 8 dollars, though I suppose I could have.

 

But if you're a waiter and you offer me a free dessert, naturally I'm going to assume that you mean something that's on the dessert menu, because as far as I'm aware, that's what your restaurant serves for dessert. Those are my dessert choices - and ice cream cake was not among them.

 

Really, he should have clarified his offer. How was I to know he was offering ice cream cake, unless he made that clear? And if I had known that the impending ice cream cake was free, simply put, I would not have ordered the profiteroles.

 

The waiter had a SECOND chance to clarify, when we placed the order for the aforementioned profiteroles. Yet he did NOTHING as we added to our bill, and didn't find it odd that we were ordering off the dessert menu when we had the free ice cream cake coming our way. That's because he did NOT explain the terms of his free offer.

 

Look, I know I need to lose a few pounds - did he just think I was a big fan of desserts? Dude, I just ate a double-sized pork chop and what most people would call a two-person order of polenta. Even I can't double up on desserts at that point.

 

Nope, he played innocent bystander and then offered us the ice cream cake to take home. I'm guessing that there was some kind of big party there the week before, or perhaps an in-house staff meeting where a Carvel cake had been served, and the management was saying, "See if you can move this ice-cream cake, it's taking up too much room in the freezer."

 

Well, we live in Queens, so what do you think is going to happen to that ice-cream cake when we ride home on the subway, genius? Cooler evening weather might be here, but it takes the subway platforms an extra week or so to lose that summer feel. So we can enjoy another plate of ice cream soup when we get home, great.

 

It's all about communication. I've gotten dessert buy-backs before, one notable restaurant thanked me for attending my 20th monthly beer dinner (in a row, mind you) with a plate of fondue for me and my guest. But if you're going to give me a P.O.S. dessert for free, please inform me of the details of your offer BEFORE I drop some more simoleans on the high-priced sweetmeats.

 

Thank you for your attention.

This panel explored different investment opportunities and learnt why all foreign investors agree that Bosnia and Herzegovina is an attractive opportunity that cannot be missed. The country’s strategic geographic position, investor-friendly legal environment, favourable trade agreements, competitive tax and customs systems, low operating costs, and talented people make it a destination full of potential for profitable investments.

 

In his welcoming speech, the Chairman of the Council of Ministers of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Dr. Denis Zvizdić introduced the country’s great investment potential. He was followed by Sir Suma Chakrabarti, EBRD President, who described some of the Bank’s wide-ranging activities to promote sustainable growth and innovation in the Bosnia and Herzegovina.

 

The Foreign Investment Promotion Agency of Bosnia and Herzegovina aims to encourage potential and existing investors to the country, and so is at the disposal of investors at every phase of their projects; from starting a business and selecting a location, to networking with relevant institutions and stakeholders, implementing the project and expanding business.

 

This special session focused on specific areas in which Bosnia and Herzegovina has enormous investment potential. Boosted by planned strategic investments, these focus areas can yield high profits and generate overall economic growth. Areas of specific interest include the energy sector, metal processing and automotive industry, furniture manufacturing, food processing, the tourism industry, and IT sector.

 

The audience heard success stories about private sector initiatives, and how abundant resources can be turned into profitable investment projects with the potential for further growth. Specific examples include:

 

- Bit Alliance, an association of 58 major IT companies with more than 2800 experts.

 

- Olympic Centre Jahorina, host of Winter Olympic Games in 1984 and Youth Olympic Games in 2019, recognised as the most promising winter resort in the Western Balkans region.

 

- Prevent Group, the largest private sector company in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and a global contract manufacturer with strong sales and logistics expertise.

 

- MS&Wood, a design-oriented solid wood manufacturer which has won awards at many international fairs.

 

- Mljekara Livno (Livno Diary), the brand owner of “Livanjski cheese”, a high-fat solid cheese with a specific flavour that is widely recognised as a top quality product.

Former Midland Railway Melbourne to Ashby Branch Line

 

The Line was never profitable and was closed to passenger traffic before Grouping, it was used as a freight only line serving the quarries at Cloud and Breedon Hill and Lount Colliery

 

During the war the branch was taken over by the military and run as an adjunct to the Longmoor Military Railway, as Number 2 Railway Training Facility. It was handed back to the London Midland Scottish Railway who presented a bill for £25000 for repairs

 

The branch was used to store redundant steam during the rundown of steam in the 1960's. It finally closed in 1982 after being singled in the 1960's. Now that rail no longer reigns supreme the trackbed has been tarmaced over for the use of Sustrans for one of their underused long distance cycle paths.

Enslaved women were not only raped by their owners, but also frequently sold into prostitution. Light-skinned enslaved women were very profitable in the "Fancy Trade", a prostituion network featuring so-called bright or brown-skinned girls that was centered in New Orleans and also prospered in cities such as Lexington, St. Louis, and Charleston. . . . Although the statistics on the sexual abuse of enslaved blacks cannot be known with certainty, there's no doubt that the scope of the problem was enormous.

 

~ from Mightier Than The Sword: Uncle Tom's Cabin and the Batlle for America

 

www.historycooperative.org/journals/ahr/106.5/ah050100161...

In January 1834, the slave trader Isaac Franklin wrote from New Orleans to his Richmond partner and slave buyer, Rice Ballard: "The fancy girl, from Charlattsvilla [Charlottesville], will you send her out or shall I charge you $1100 for her. Say quick, I wanted to see her . . . I thought that an old Robber might be satisfied with two or three maids." Franklin implied that his partner was holding the young woman, one of many "fancy maids" handled by the firm of Franklin, Armfield, and Ballard, for his own sexual use. Unwilling, the jest implied, to share his enslaved sex objects, Ballard was keeping the desirable Charlottesville maid in Richmond instead of passing her on to his partners so that they might take their turn of pleasure. The joke, and the desire it did not seek to disguise, was business as usual. In this case, the business was a slave-trading partnership, and systematic rape and sexual abuse of slave women were part of the normal practice of the men who ran the firm—and the normal practice of many of their planter customers as well. Franklin, Armfield, and Ballard supplied field hands and carpenters to the raw new plantations of Louisiana, Mississippi, and Arkansas in the 1830s, but they also supplied planters with many a "fancy maid."

A fateful occurrence proved profitable for Yours Truly on Wednesday morning.

I decided to nip home after the 6C51 Heysham flasks as nothing else was pencilled in until the afternoon's 6K73 working.

 

Intending to have a bite to eat and then head inland to suss out some photo locations, something made me switch on the PC and have a nose through my emails.

Still don't know what made me do it but I'm glad I did because there was a note from Flickr chum "tunny's pics" telling me that if I was out and about then 2 x DRS 37s and support coaches were running as 5Z37 Crewe - Workington and had passed Leyland at 10am.

This was news to me and I grabbed all my gear and headed straight back out of the door.

Pathing was guesswork and I knew they probably weren't far off so I headed down to my old favourite location, Derwent Junction.

I'd only been there a few minutes when the presence of another photter indicated that they might be imminent.

We introduced ourselves and blow me if he wasn't Flickr contact "RandER25".

He was able to fill me in on some details and purpose of the working.

The ensemble was heading for Workington Port so by pure luck I was in exactly the right place at exactly the right time.

Result.

No.37603 leads No.37610 as they head down to Workington Main to switch roads before heading back towards us.

Tom Mazich, Executive VP and General Manager, GovCon at Deltek said that the Clarity 2011 Survey should be used as a business tool to help contractors ask, "How do we better ourselves to make ourselves more profitable?"

Hope her business is profitable!

In the 18th and 19th centuries whaling was a profitable but dangerous industry for the town, providing meat and rich oil for lighting and other uses. When it eventually went into decline due to the availability of alternative methods an arch formed of two whale jaw bones was erected here in 1853 as a recognition of its service to the town.

110 years later in 1963 it was replaced by an even bigger arch, the 20 foot long bones being donated by Norway.

These in turn weathered to a crumbling state and were also replaced by the bones shown here given by Alaskan Inuits in 2003

The original bones are preserved by the Whitby Archive Heritage Centre

Hundreds of employees from the supermarket chain, Market Basket, rallied outside of the company’s board of directors meeting convened to decide the fate of its CEO, Arthur T. Demoulas. The Demoulas family has run Market Basket for decades, and has been feuding over the company for nearly as long. Critics, including the CEO's cousin, Arthur S. Demoulas, accuse the leader of fiscal mismanagement; supporters, including a vocal group of Market Basket employees, say Arthur T. has led the company to growth, profits and high worker morale. Following 12 hours of debate Thursday, Arthur T. Demoulas remained president of the Market Basket supermarket chain. The family-owned company’s board adjourned a contentious meeting at 10 p.m. without acting on a motion for Demoulas’s removal. It was unclear whether the shareholders would continue to press for his ouster. The board meets again on Aug. 22. For now, the stalemate ends a bitter feud over the Tewksbury-based supermarket chain, which has remained highly profitable despite near constant infighting for more than 20 years.

Apple may be the most profitable company in the world, but not even that distinction is enough for it to escape the contempt of Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk.

In an interview with German newspaper Handlesblatt, Musk was disdainful of Apple’s reported efforts to build an electric car, to hit the market by 2019. When the interviewer asked whether Musk was worried about the fact that Apple had hired some of Tesla’s “most important engineers,” Musk shot back: “Important engineers? They have hired people we’ve fired. We always jokingly call Apple the ‘Tesla Graveyard.’ If you don’t make it at Tesla, you go work at Apple. I’m not kidding.”

When asked whether he takes the competition seriously, Musk twisted the knife, saying:

Did you ever take a look at the Apple Watch? (laughs) No, seriously: It’s good that Apple is moving and investing in this direction. But cars are very complex compared to phones or smartwatches. You can’t just go to a supplier like Foxconn and say: Build me a car. But for Apple, the car is the next logical thing to finally offer a significant innovation. A new pencil or a bigger iPad alone were not relevant enough.
