In 2012 alone, nighty eight (98) income-generation activities were supported by DCPSF that included different groups, such as women, youth and various tribes. A total of 92 percent of sampled community members responded that trust and confidence was restored in the communities where the DCPSF projects were operating. Over 80 percent of sampled Darfuris responded that they are satisfied with reconciliation mechanisms, experiencing increased levels of peace and stability. Despite of the increasing overall intensity of conflicts and security incidents in 2012, sample survey and reports from 21 ongoing projects, 2012 indicates that the communities with the DCPSF strengthened their resilience to conflicts and enjoyed peace and stability where activities promoting early recovery could take place. More than 146,500 people have used the community-based conflict resolution mechanisms benefited directly and some 2,425,620 people benefitted indirectly in which the efforts spread to some 160 communities in 2012. DCPSF has supported 61 educational and 7 health initiatives. Forty-five (45) civil society organizations (CSOs) improved planning, conflict sensitivity and peace building activities. Through DCPSF, 25,302 children were newly enrolled in schools in Darfur and 109 water sources including boreholes, hand pumps, wells, and hafirs through consultative processes.
Despite of tough security situation and access, DCPSF has gone beyond the defined milestones by achieving 14 out of 17 milestones defined for 2012. It requires a continuation of funds for the period of time to brought back the communities to pre-conflict situation as a significant amount of anchoring are still in an intensive care. UNDP through DCPSF and its implementing partners backed by the donors, assures to set new goals, standards and achievements in the year 2014 and will ensure accountability of each penny spend from contribution of the donating countries.

20m tanker at night.
This is a new configuration, officially launched at Tieman in early April 2014. It can be used in place of the standard 19m units.
This prototype has been purchased for evaluation and testing of the concept.
Our units are fitted with EBS (electronic braking system) which incorporates a Roll Stability function.
The units have more braking capacity and stability than current 19m units due to the extra axle.
We have also added red reflective tape to the rear for greater visibility at night.
Also additional amber reflective tape along the side of the units this is going to be relocated to a much higher position on future builds.
The units also have all of our standard additional safety features.

This is a rough idea of what Marco told me on the phone about the base of the piece. The idea is that if the i-beam steel is big enough and heavy enough, it could work as the stand for such a large piece, even if it was placed on the surface of the playa.
But the base will be buried, so that the right foot of the piece seems to stand on the surface of the desert. And, with the base buried, it will be even more stable.
Speaking of stability, it would help if the legs touched where they cross, but they don't . That would firm up the lower section, adding another stabilizing triangle, behind the left knee. The fact that the legs don't touch will increase the structural challenge, because Marco knows- and accepts the fact- that people will want to sit on the left ankle and leg.
UPDATE- July 2, 2010.
There is now a special section on the heavy parts of the design in the BD 03 set:, called "Right leg":

The modern materials, and Marco's airy design, make the amazing, one-leg stance of the figure possible.
Solving problems of stability is the age-old challenge of the sculptor. See an example from the past on the next page.

Today, the European Union faces critical risks to its stability. The possibility of a Brexit. The ongoing Ukraine/Russia conflict. The strain of mass migration. ISIL and other terrorism threats. The lingering financial crisis in Greece and beyond. These issues pose distinct challenges for the EU, its 28 member countries, and their 500 million citizens. How will these developing problems affect Europe?
On March 31, Governance Studies at Brookings hosted Czech Prime Minister Bohuslav Sobotka to discuss the current status of the EU as seen through the lens of a Central European nation, close U.S. NATO ally and current Chair of the Visegrad Group. Prime Minister Sobotka offered insight into how the EU will address these issues, and where its future lies.
