This is super handy, compared to the one on the board. I mounted it inside as I did not want to accidentally reset it too.

Almost 3500 internally displaced people have been successfully relocated from the UN Protection of Civilians site in Juba to a new site within the community in a joint effort between the United Nations Mission in South Sudan and humanitarian agencies.
“This is the first movement of displaced people of this magnitude out of the UN Juba protection site. Almost all of those relocated were women and children,” said the UN Special Representative of the Secretary-General and Head of UNMISS, David Shearer. “They had expressed a strong desire to leave the UN site and to be reunited with their husbands and other family members. Early indications and, in my discussions with those who moved, is that they are pleased to be back in the wider community.”
The combined effort to relocate the families to an existing site at Mangateen in the central city followed an UNMISS-negotiated end to sporadic fighting between various groups within the UN protection camp over the past few weeks that threatened vulnerable civilians inside. Once a resolution was reached and people expressed a desire to leave, humanitarian agencies and UNMISS worked quickly and cooperatively to establish temporary housing at Mangateen along with clean water, sanitation and health services.
“All those involved in the relocation process realized the seriousness of the situation given the large number of vulnerable women and children being moved. It was a true team effort to carry out the massive logistical task of transporting and supporting these families in a new location within just a few days,” said David Shearer.
The Mangateen site has traditionally been managed by the South Sudan Government’s Relief and Rehabilitation Commission and it will continue to do so. Humanitarian agencies will provide additional assistance on request.
“I am particularly grateful for the Government’s rapid response to this situation which ensured that people were able to be safely moved and accommodated back in the community,” said David Shearer.
“Hundreds of thousands of people fled to UN protection sites across South Sudan out of fear for their lives during the ongoing conflict. But these camps are not a good long-term option for families,” said David Shearer. “If people have the trust and confidence that the environment is safe enough for them to voluntarily return home, UNMISS is poised to assist them. But providing that confidence in the security situation very much lies with the Government.”

Our shipping container left on the 16th of December 2008. Ours is the blue one, third from the front. Our house was packed up and loaded into the container in 2 days. Mind you we'd spent 2 months culling and purging all that was deemed unecessary.
Hopefully with no mishaps or pirate escapades we'll see it all on the 1st January.

The north chancel window contains the bulk of the church's surviving ancient glass, assembled here in the latter part of the 19th century (by glaziers who added their own pieces which may confuse the untrained eye). The centre light contains three heraldic quatrefoils relocated from the traceries of other windows in the church.
Bilton lies immediately west of Rugby and though originally a rural village it is now very much a suburb of the town. It still however retains some of its village character and its ancient parish church of St Mark is happily set away from the busy roads in a more peaceful enclave, its spire and tower emerging from the dense surrounding foliage to announce its presence.
St Mark's church dates back to the mid 14th century and is a good example of the Decorated style with its large windows adorned with flowing tracery. All of the surviving medieval work dates from this phase (there were doubtless earlier buildings on the site that were in turn replaced) and the tower and spire have remained unaltered ever since. The body of the church however has seen some dramatic alterations since it originally only consisted of an aisle-less nave and chancel.
The first major intervention came in 1873 when G.F.Bodley restored the church (the chancel adornments and east window are of this time) and extended it by adding the present north aisle. The second major extension came as recently as 1962 when the south aisle was added to balance that on the north, greatly increasing the interior space. On both occasions the work was done very sensitively by simply dismantling the medieval nave walls and re-assembling them further outwards to create the aisles, so that technically only their end walls are new work (along with the roofs and arcades within), thus one could be forgiven for inspecting the exterior with its ancient stonework and not suspecting any enlargement had taken place (I'd known the church for years having grown up locally, but only recently found out parts of it are only twelve years older than I am!).
The interior is now more open and spacious than it ever was before, the new south aisle being particularly light and pleasant within. Few will notice that the three-bay nave arcades aren't ancient, as Bodley's work on the north ably mimics medieval work and the newer arches on the south side imitate them (a rare example of church architecture of this period being so sensitive, trying so hard to subtly fit in with earlier work). The chancel beyond is more richly furnished with fine stalls and a handsome organ case from one of the Cambridge colleges, redecorated with gilding and Bodley's stenciling on the wall around it. There are several stained glass windows of varying dates and styles from the Victorian period but the real treasures here are the surviving fragments of the church's original 14th century glass, collected mostly into the north chancel window (a few more are set high up in the east window of the north aisle). Most of what remains is a jumble of fragments (with a few deceptive Victorian heads thrown into the mix) along with some reset heraldic tracery lights, but the tiny scene of a man about to slaughter a pig at the lower right corner ('December' from a series of the medieval 'Labours of the Months') is a real gem.
Years ago St Mark's church used to be open more regularly, but these days is normally only open for services, so one is best advised to make prior arrangements to see inside or visit after a service as I did on this occasion (many thanks to Reverend Tim for staying on slightly longer before locking up to allow me a little more time to finish).

The bronze statue that once stood atop the Pitt County Confederate Soldiers Monument is secured for transport as the sun begins to rise on Monday, June 22. Crews worked throughout the night to disassemble the monument while hampered by equipment issues; the remainder of the monument was removed on Tuesday evening. Work was performed at night to prevent interfering with traffic, court proceedings, and businesses in the Uptown area.
On Monday, June 15, the Pitt County Board of Commissioners voted to relocate the memorial due to threat of vandalism and concern for public safety after property damage occurred during rioting in the Uptown area two weeks earlier. Following the vote to relocate the monument, County Commissioners created a committee to select a new location for the statue, which has not been determined at this time.
The monument was formally dedicated in November 1914; various groups have called for its removal from the courthouse grounds since at least the 1990’s.

it was with great shame that the indians had to concede that there were no longer any tigers in rajasthan outside of the ranthambore range despite perfect habitat and once healthy populations
the report was a huge wake-up call to everyone about the extent of the poaching and the resulting initiatives have stepped up security and led to the reintroduction of tigers into sariska from ranthambore
