Agriculture is the main stay of Uganda’s economy, however, the share of agriculture in the national Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has been declining steadily. In fiscal year 2009/10, agriculture contributed only 14.6% to the national GDP of which 1.3% was attributed to the livestock sub-sector. The dairy industry is estimated to contribute more than 50% of the total output from the livestock sub-sector. The dairy industry employs many people who are engaged in various economic activities along the dairy value chain, particularly in milk production, collection, bulking and transportation, processing, distribution and marketing as well as provision of inputs and support services.

The Society of American Florists will honor Blair Winner with the Gold Medal Award during SAF Palm Springs 2018, the association’s 134th Annual Convention at the Westin Mission Hills in Rancho Mirage, California. The SAF Gold Medal Award honors the originator or introducer of a widely distributed plant or flower that has become established as an outstanding product of significant horticultural and commercial value.
“Blair’s impressive breeding career led to a number of notable new varieties in the floriculture industry as well as advances in plant breeding that impacted the eye health market,” said SAF Awards Committee Chairman Marvin Miller, Ph.D., AAF, of the Ball Horticultural Company in West Chicago, Illinois. “He has trained many of the industry’s leading breeders and leaves an enduring legacy.”
Winner retired in March after 43 years with the PanAmerican Seed Company. Raised in Butler, Pennsylvania, Winner graduated from Pennsylvania State University with a bachelor’s and master’s degrees in horticulture. His interest in plant breeding was piqued while studying under Dr. Richard Craig, who provided valuable experience and industry exposure throughout Winner’s graduate studies.
Winner began his commercial breeding career at Bodger Seed Company in Lompoc, California in 1973. In 1975, David Lemon hired him at Denholm Seed Company, later PanAmerican Seed Company, both of which are now part of Ball Horticultural Company. Winner credits Lemon for mentoring him and giving him a plethora of opportunities, including the chance to breed annuals, cut flowers and perennials.
Winner bred Summer Showers ivy geranium, the first ever F1 ivy geranium from seed. Some of his favorite introductions include gazania F1 Daybreak Red Stripe, which was part of the first F1 series and the first separate color with the striped color pattern, and French marigolds Fireball and Strawberry Blonde, whose unique colors came from anthocyanin pigment on both the upper and lower sides of the petals.
His work was diverse: From improving French Marigolds such as Bonanza, Hot Pak and Garland, to introducing the Guardian cut delphinium series and Sun Up, Sunfire, SunKiss and UpTick coreopsis, among others. Several of his varieties were awarded All-America Selections and Fleuroselect designations.
However, Lisianthus was the crop Blair loved to breed most — both because it was the first cut flower he ever bred and for its sheer beauty and elegance.
His breeding work took a challenging — and rewarding — turn when he began to work with the Ball Helix team on the pigment marigold project, which aimed to increase the production of zeaxanthin pigments in marigold petals. Originally intended as a supplement to chicken feed to enhance the color of both the flesh and egg yolks, zeaxanthin later found a much higher market value when it was added to eye health supplements, along with lutein, to prevent age-related macular degeneration.
Winner was the breeder on the team, and the project required a series of mutations that changed the carotenoid pathway in a way that allowed the percentage of zeaxanthin to be raised from 4 percent to 30 percent, and later, with a combination of multiple mutations, to 90 percent. He learned the carotenoid pathway in detail and worked with chemists to quantify the pigment levels and the carotenoid profile for the various mutations.

John Edwards was born in Seneca, South Carolina and raised in Robbins, North Carolina, a small town in the Piedmont. There John learned the values of hard work and perseverance from his father, Wallace, who worked in the textile mills for 36 years, and from his mother, Bobbie, who ran a shop and worked at the post office. Working alongside his father at the mill, John developed his strong belief that all Americans deserve an equal opportunity to succeed and be heard.
A proud product of public schools, John became the first person in his family to attend college. He worked his way through North Carolina State University where he graduated with high honors in 1974, and then earned a law degree with honors in 1977 from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
For the next 20 years, John dedicated his career to representing families and children just like the families he grew up with in Robbins. Standing up against the powerful insurance industry and their armies of lawyers, John helped these families through the darkest moments of their lives to overcome tremendous challenges. His passionate advocacy for people like the folks who worked in the mill with his father earned him respect and recognition across the country.
In 1998, John took this commitment into politics to give a voice in the United States Senate to the people he had represented throughout his career. He ran for the Senate and won, defeating an incumbent Senator.
In Congress, Senator Edwards quickly emerged as a champion for the issues that make a difference to American families: quality health care, better schools, protecting civil liberties, preserving the environment, saving Social Security and Medicare, and reforming the ways campaigns are financed.
As a member of the Select Committee on Intelligence, Senator Edwards worked tirelessly for a strong national defense and to strengthen the security of our homeland. He authored key pieces of legislation on cyber, bio, and port security.
Senator Edwards brought a positive message of change to the 2004 presidential primaries. During the primary season he spoke about the two Americas that exist in our country today: one for people at the top who have everything they need and one for everybody else who struggle to get by. This powerful message resonated with voters all across America.
After the Democratic primaries, Senator John Kerry picked Senator Edwards to serve as his running mate in the 2004 general election, and Senator Edwards crisscrossed the country and campaigned tirelessly on Senator Kerry's behalf.
He is the former Director of the Center on Poverty, Work, and Opportunity at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
Senator Edwards and his wife, Elizabeth, whom he met when both were law students at Chapel Hill, were married in 1977. They have had four children, including: their eldest daughter, Catharine, who is attending law school; nine-year-old Emma Claire; and a seven-year-old son, Jack. Their first child, Wade, died in 1996.

Perspective is Everything - Adding Psychological Value
In Perspective Is Everything, ad-man Rory Sutherland gives us an interesting and entertaining take on the themes of Psychological Artistry. (Please be aware, there is strong language in this video from the beginning) Please go to www.mindsways.com/SMS/#Perspective and let me know what you think. In summary, he says;
Things are not what they are; they are what we think they are
Things are also what we compare them to
Psychological value is the best kind of value
Value is composed of three parts Technological, Economic and Psychological
This whole idea of adding psychological value to what you do is the chief aim of Psychological Artistry ; combining psychological solutions and approaches with ideas to your delivery. The focus of the Sleight of Mind Set workshop is to add psychological value to your delivery.
Maya Angelou: I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
Being an effective communicator has very little to do with what you have to say, and everything to do with what people say about you. Psychological Artistry, the Sleight of Mind Set workshop and the SNT kit provokes you into becoming the talking point of a conversation. It's impossible to escape the force of impact that floating a note with your bear hands gives you when united with your compelling message.
By using the right techniques, anyone can:
Capture and maintain attention
Become more engaging
Demonstrate psychological value
Create meaningful interactions

Psychological Artistry - Perception and Insight
A fascinating example of perspective and insight is shown in a well-known Fred Astaire clip, click here to see it. Perspectives determine how we:
View and interpret our experiences
Make decisions
Filter our insights
Govern our assumptions
Act and behave
It is this unseen primary influence that magicians know and understand and use very well.
Interesting examples of how all is not as it appears are the McGurk effect and Prof Richard Wiseman's "The Incredible Colour Changing Card Effect". Please take a look here or go to mindsways.com/SMS. I would love to know what you think. These illustrate both the power and the approach of Psychological Artistry.

Zamindar Family of Teota
________________________________________
Zamindar Family of Teota' was one of the large landholders based in Teota of manikganj district. Founded by one Panchanan Chaudhuri, born (c. 1740) into the Dasgupta family of Shaitghar-Teota in western Manikganj, the 'Sankars' (the family middle name) were a relatively progressive, enlightened and unostentatious zamindar family. A number of its members made notable contributions to public life at all Bengal level.
The Teota zamindari comprised a number of estates spread out in the districts of Dhaka, Faridpur and Pabna, and Dinajpur along with some small properties in Rangpur and Burdwan. In 1914, the Dinajpur properties alone were valued at over Rs 11 lakhs. The estate paid over Rs. 60,000 in annual government revenue, and was managed by educated and trained officials. It would also appear that this estate was comparatively generous towards its employees ' among other things, it paid a 'dearness allowance', and took care of the medical expenses and 'living costs' of its staff. The head office/ manager's office was at Teota, and the estate was broadly divided into a few circles, each having a number of kachharis under it. The Teota zamindari remained undivided for almost a hundred and fifty years. By 1920, however, it had been amicably partitioned into the eight anna Teota Joy Sankar Estate, and other smaller shares. The zamindari ended with the abolition of zamindari system, and the acquisition of the estates by the government, under the provisions of the EAST BENGAL STATE ACQUISITION AND TENANCY ACT of 1950.
Panchanan Chaudhuri, the founder of the family, began his 'career' away from home, in Dinajpur. His earliest investments, it seems, had been in the tobacco trade, in which he flourished. With the profits earned from his lucrative business, he soon started to invest in land when a land market was created under the operation of the Permanent Settlement. He acquired his earliest properties in the Dinajpur region. Some time later, he returned to his ancestral village, and established himself as the first zamindar of Teota. A devout vaisnab, it was also during his time that 'Sridhar' came to be the 'family-god', Panchanan being the first 'sebaiyat'. He lived till ninety-three, and saw in his own lifetime the zamindari maturing into one of the largest in Eastern Bengal.
Very little is known about Panchanan Chaudhuri's only son, Kali Sankar, who died very young, in his early thirties, but left behind two sons ' Joy Sankar and Tarini Sankar (born, 1800s-1810s). Both of them were brought up to be 'traditional' aristocrats (of the 'Nawabi Bengal' mould), the younger Tarini Sankar having even been sent to Murshidabad for his education. However, he did not have a long life, and died in his thirties, and was survived by Shyama Sankar (later RAJA SHYAMA SANKAR RAY BAHADUR of Teota) and Pran Sankar.
Joy Sankar considerably augmented the inherited properties. He undertook such welfare activities as the digging of ponds and the construction of roads, besides generously maintaining the 'atithi-sala' (guest house) at Teota set up by his grandfather. He, however, decided to renounce his family and his worldly possessions, and left for Puri ' one of the best destinations for a practising vaisnab ' leaving his two minor sons (Parbati Sankar and Hara Sankar) under the care of their mother and grandmother. It was there that he died shortly afterwards (c 1860). His sons later built a 'dharamsala' in his memory at Gaya (in Bihar), and also made the necessary initial arrangements for a 'math' to be founded at the site of his cremation in Puri.
The next generation of the family saw a marked shift towards the metropolis. Although the (first) Calcutta residence of the family had been built at 50, Darmahutta Street (now Maharshi Debendra Road) in the Pathuriaghata area in the 1820s, it was only from the sixties that male members of the family began to live in the city for extended periods. The ladies of the family left the village much later, in the 1880s or 1890s, when a new, more sprawling residence was built at 44, European Asylum Lane. That apart, the family also had a number of residential houses elsewhere. The Teota rajbari in Benaras (there were two, in fact) have been immortalised by BIBHUTIBHUSHAN BANDYOPADHYAY's novel, and subsequently by the SATYAJIT RAY film, 'Aparajita'.
The eldest among the four cousins of this generation, Shyama Sankar Roy, was a noted philanthropist, an enterprising landlord who made numerous attempts at improvements and innovations in agriculture, and a Theosophist. He was conferred the personal title of 'Raja' in the 1877s. RAI PARBATI SANKAR CHAUDHURI was also an 'imaginative' zamindar. Among other things, he introduced the system of co-operative grain banks (dharmagola) within the zamindari, and was one of the founders of the INDIAN INDUSTRIAL ASSOCIATION. Hara Sankar Ray, who was a Presidency College graduate and had a degree in law, was an honourary magistrate (of Teota). The next generation saw yet another shift, with many of the cousins being sent to British universities for their first degrees and legal training at the Inns of Court, although only one of them, Dr Kumar Sankar Ray, turned out to be a 'professional' in later life. KS Ray, a non-practising barrister and a philanthropist, was prominently involved in Congress electoral politics and represented Bengal (along with a few others) at the Council of States in New Delhi in the 1930s and 40s. The best-known names in the generation were however: the politician, KIRON SANKAR ROY, and KUMUD SANKAR RAY (Dr KS Ray), the medical luminary and Swarajya-Congress leader.
The family seat was at Teota ' an expansive complex, close to the bank of Jamuna, comprising a maze of courtyards and buildings, the earliest ones dating from the early nineteenth century, and the most recent from the early 1900s. The remarkable Navaratna adjoining the rajbati, built in honour of the family god and used during the 'Dol' festival, is among the tallest and most elegant ones of its kind. The 'High/ Entrance School' in the village, called Teota Academy, founded by the Teota Zamindar Family in the 1880s was ' apart from the town school ' for a long time the only one in Manikganj sub-division, now a district. The school also had a 'boarding' for resident scholars, and its students used to stay at the 'Bahir-bari' of the Calcutta residence of the Sankars when appearing for the University matriculation and other examinations. Besides this, there was a 'pathsala' and a charitable dispensary maintained by the estate. Also, Teota was one of the very few places in the district having a sitting honorary magistrate and a 'bench'.
The big structures of the zamindar family still survive though abandoned and left uncared since 1957. These are now occupied by squatters. Structurally, the magnificent Teota buildings carry the spirit and technique of the blends of Mughal and European architecture. [R Roy]'

I thought to use a proverb or quote on the "value" of time, or the "coin" of it. But instead, I choose something more relevant to me now. I give to you, from one of my favorite authors, Tennessee Williams:

Statement of Significance
Description of Historic Place
The Yarrow Building is a large six-storey commercial and retail building bordered by Fort, Broad, and Broughton Streets.
Heritage Value
The Yarrow Building is one of Victoria's finest office and commercial buildings built before the First World War. As Victoria's largest office building at the time of its construction, this building exudes the confidence and prosperity of the Edwardian era.
Notable for its associations with two of Victoria's most successful businesses - Pemberton & Son Realtors, and Yarrows Shipyard, this building has continued to possess a reputation as one of the most fashionable commercial and professional buildings in the city for over 90 years.
Formerly called the Pemberton Building, this 1911 office and commercial block designed for the J.D. Pemberton estate included the Victoria Stock Exchange in its basement until 1916, and the esteemed Pacific Club in its top floor until 1963. Purchased by industrialist Norman Yarrow after 1913, this building is a reminder of the wealth and prestige associated with the business success that fueled Victoria's commercial growth in the early twentieth century.
Architecturally, the Yarrow Building's value lies in its high-density massing, solid form, and state-of-the-art Chicago School styling, with its grid-like fenestration pattern, flat roof, protruding bracketed cornice, and restrained ornamentation. This large-scale landmark in the Old Town District is one of most substantial representations of the period of land speculation which occurred in Victoria prior to 1914.
Source: City of Victoria Planning and Development Department
Character-Defining Elements
The character-defining elements of the Yarrow Building include:
- the six-storey form, and high-density massing of this building, bordered by Fort, Broad, and Broughton Streets;
- the Chicago School stylistic elements, such as the flat roof, grid like fenestration pattern of tripartite wooden-sash windows, and bracketed cornice;
- authentic building materials such as brick and granite;
- the mixed use of the building for office and retail spaces, with large storefront windows at street level;
- interior spatial configurations associated with the building's original design;
- spatial configurations, finishes, and fittings which remain intact on the top floor, and relate to the Pacific Club;
- the light wells.

Krka National Park
The national park is a vast and primarily unaltered area of exceptional natural value, including one or more preserved or insignificantly altered ecosystems. The purpose of the park is primarily to serve science, culture, education and recreation, while tourism activities have also been introduced for its visitors.
Including the submerged part of the river at the mouth, the Krka River is 72.5 km long, making it the 22nd longest river in Croatia. It springs in the foothills of the Dinara mountain range, 2.5 km northeast of Knin. With its seven waterfalls and a total drop in altitude of 242 m, the Krka is a natural and karst phenomenon. The travertine waterfalls of the Krka River are the fundamental phenomenon of this river.

On the Sleight of Mind Set Workshop, we will give you the tools, ideas and materials that capture the scarcest resource we have in today's world: attention.
Psychological Artistry - Perception and Insight
A fascinating example of perspective and insight is shown in a well-known Fred Astaire clip, click here to see it. Perspectives determine how we:
View and interpret our experiences
Make decisions
Filter our insights
Govern our assumptions
Act and behave
It is this unseen primary influence that magicians know and understand and use very well.
Interesting examples of how all is not as it appears are the McGurk effect and Prof Richard Wiseman's "The Incredible Colour Changing Card Effect". Please take a look here or go to mindsways.com/SMS. I would love to know what you think. These illustrate both the power and the approach of Psychological Artistry.
Out Style Of Delivery: Edutrainment
Over the past 2 years, I have noticed a significant and fascinating new movement in the worlds of mentoring, training, teaching, consulting, coaching, management, therapy and many other areas. In all of these fields, the ability to work on a face-to-face basis and include Mind Magic and Psychological Artistry dramatically increases interest in you and your message, as well as your skill set, reputation and sales figures. To see some of the many success stories, please see here. It is this philosophy and principle that the Sleight of Mind Set workshop is based on, and it's this that makes you:
Stand Out
Grab and Hold Attention
Be More Interesting
Help Others
Engage More
As well as learning the effects, you can also learn valuable lessons from mind magic about how we think, act and behave. Mind Magic, as well as being entertaining and fascinating, can also be used to illustrate and understand human nature and our psychology. Using Psychological Artistry in your delivery adds both the spice of excitement and taps into this enduring popularity of magic and psychology.

I made this for our niece and her new husband; I machine-embroidered their names and wedding date on the label.
They came in strollers, backpacks, infant carriers, or on tiny feet.
But Friday they came out in force to watch Elmo, Grover, Rosita and friends.
Thirteen hundred children and 600 adults attended three performances on Fort Knox to watch the USO’s longest-running tour based on the Sesame Street’s military Families initiative.
The Sesame Street/USO Experience for Military Families made its debut in 2008 with a goal of helping Families deal with the challenges of deployment and homecomings. Since then, the tour has performed 433 shows on 131 military bases in 33 states and 11 countries.
The furry life-sized Sesame Street characters jumped onto the stage at Natcher Physicial Fitness Center last week and were met with cheers from their pint-sized audience members, who seemed to recognize all the characters but Katie. A new character designed for military audiences, Katie is the only furless member of the cast and she represents a child of a military Family.
During the 30-minute song and dance performance, Katie shared her fears about moving with her military parents, her dislike of change, her sadness about leaving friends, and her doubts about making new friends. The other cast members had suggestions and reassurances to help Katie through the stresses of transition.
The entertainment value of the show was supplemented with other outreach materials distributed to attending families as well as giveaway products like free music CDs, bumper stickers, toys, and bandannas.
