Christmas Oat Granola
If you follow me on Instagram on your smartphone and pop in to see what's going on in stories behind my profile pic, it won't come as a surprise to hear that I make a weekly batch of granola for the family. With the holidays approaching and inspiration from a most welcome delivery to Paris of my favourite Scottish porridge oats from the mill at Hamlyns Scotland, I couldn't resist turning festive with this Christmas Oat Granola. Incidentally, do check out the wealth of delicious recipes on their website. For oat lovers, you're in for a treat!
French Pastry Chefs' Rule About Sugar
Over the years of living in France, I've adored tasting all sorts of pastries and desserts; at first glance at this website and my patisserie books, it may look like I have a ridiculously sweet tooth but it couldn't be further from the truth. If you try a French tart, éclair, chocolate fondant, macaron, financier or even a simple chouquette from the best French patisseries, you'll discover that that it's not overly sweet. I've learned the same rule from many top French pastry chefs. What's their delicious secret?
There should be just enough sugar to bring out the flavours – too much sugar kills the recipe.
Christmas Oat Granola
As with my homemade maple granola, I always test until I've reduced the sugar to taste – and in this recipe there's finally none needed. The natural sugars are deliciously sweet enough to start the day, coming from the maple syrup and the dried fruits.
To conjure up some festive flavours, I added warming spices, orange zest and special Christmassy nuts such as brazil and pecan nuts. The orange zest may seem a lot, but the flavour calms down as it toasts in the oven, leaving just the right amount for a cosy, Christmas hint at breakfast time. And, ça va sans dire – it goes without saying – that you can enjoy this at any time of year!
Disclaimer: I was not compensated for this post but was kindly sent my favourite oats from Hamlyns of Scotland in return for this Christmas Oat Granola recipe.

Yesterday, the Seattle City Council approved a contract rezone in the Westlake neighborhood paving the way for a new mixed-use project break ground in the future. The rezone was partially held up in committee due to an appeal by a nearby condominium building owner, Londi Lindell, who didn't want the views of her tenants' units to be blocked. Lindell recent purchased the property and said that the new development would cause 80% view obstruction to her building since only the third floor units would remain unimpeded. The city council, however, did not affirm her appeal or further condition the rezone and new development beyond construction of the proposed projected.
1600 Dexter Ave N Rezone
Brook V, LLC requested a rezone for a 14,785-square foot site on Dexter Ave N (1600 Dexter Ave N) to allow a 65-foot tall mixed-use development. Existing zoning on the site is Neighborhood Commercial 3 with a Pedestrian designation and 40-foot height limit (NC3P-40). The city council rezoned the site to NC3-75 to accommodate the proposal, provided that the developer participates in the Mandatory Housing Affordability (MHA) program.
The proposed development will involve construction of a six-story structure with 4,000 square feet of ground-floor retail, one live-work unit, and 85 apartments units. 54 parking stalls will also be provided below ground.
Along Dexter Ave N, the structure will be partially broken up with a recessed area in the middle for a courtyard and entryway. The overall design is modern mixing wood, brick, and concrete with a color palette of earthy tones. An intricate program of windows will offer a lot of solar lighting and targeted semi-privacy.
The development will replace several two-story commercial structures and join a chorus of newly minted mixed-use projects opening up in the burgeoning Westlake neighborhood.
As a condition of the rezone, the developer will have to choose between providing on-site affordable housing or paying into a city fund. The affordable housing requirements are set at the M1 MHA level meaning that the developer will set aside 9% of all units on-site as affordable or pay a fee equal to $20 per square foot for residential space.

Rapper Lends Voice to Non-verbal Teen; iTunes Song Benefits CMN Hospitals
SALT LAKE CITY (March 9, 2017) — Born without a jaw, 17-year-old Isaiah Acosta, of Phoenix, Arizona, has never spoken a word. Against all odds, he just released his first lyrical rap song, "Oxygen to Fly," on iTunes, benefiting Children's Miracle Network Hospitals (CMN Hospitals). Recognizing Isaiah had a poignant message to share, CMN Hospitals introduced him to one of the Southwest's biggest rappers, Trap House, who collaborated with the teen and gave his voice to Isaiah's lyrics and first track.
The song speaks to Isaiah's struggles of living with serious medical conditions, despite doubts from medical professionals. The experience was captured in a documentary short, produced by CMN Hospitals and directed by award-winning director, Torben Bernhard.
Isaiah is currently serving as the CMN Hospitals Champion ambassador for Arizona, representing the 10 million children who receive treatment at 170 member hospitals every year. In Isaiah's community, CMN Hospitals donations go to Phoenix Children's Hospital and support the Hope Fund, which helps launch critical new programs, purchase essential equipment, conduct cutting-edge research, provide charitable care and more for kids like Isaiah.
"It's eye-opening to see the challenges Isaiah faces, like changing his tracheotomy weekly and using his phone to communicate what he's thinking. Like many of the children our member hospitals treat, Isaiah has a such a positive outlook on life," said John Lauck, president and CEO of Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. "We've learned that sometimes the quietest voices are the ones with the greatest impact for good."
Isaiah wants to inspire other kids who feel different or bullied. When offered a cosmetic jaw, Isaiah turned it down, wanting others to accept him for who he is: a boy who loves hip-hop, fashion, has an impressive hat collection, frequents a local barber shop and volunteers at Phoenix Children's Hospital where he receives care.
Isaiah's story is catching attention. The documentary was recently shared on Upworthy's social media channels, garnering nearly 100,000 views in its first hour. Isaiah, Trap House and Bernhard will also be sharing their experiences at the South by Southwest Music Festival on March 11, 2017, encouraging attendees to use their talents and creativity to help their own communities.
Visit Oxygentofly.org to download the song, watch the documentary and music video, and also to learn more about Isaiah, Trap House and Bernhard.

17 Must-See Gallery Exhibitions in New York During Armory Week
When you leave the piers, here's what's on view at the galleries
The Armory Show and its satellites drawing the art world to New York this week may offer an incredible view of the industry at large, but for a true taste of the city's own art scene, you'll have to leave the piers and venture inland. The city's various neighborhoods have a flair for combining exciting exhibitions with their own local flavor, from the blue-chip galleries of Chelsea to the somewhat edgier art spaces to be found downtown.

Red Bull Arts, 220 West 18th Street

Now the multidisciplinary artist, who collaborated with Robert Longo and Cindy Sherman, along with choreographers and musicians, gets her first-ever posthumous retrospective. The show covers the breadth of Bender's oeuvre and includes considerable additional programming throughout the city.
Highlights during Armory Week include a special project at the Independent Art Fair featuring Wild Dead I, II, III (Danceteria Version) (1984), a recently uncovered early video work by the artist; a "Meet the Makers" talk by artists Eva and Franco Mattes at the New York Public Library, and a gallery tour by Bender's friend Amber Denker.

One to watch, this up-and-coming designer is presenting three new series of sculptures: "Distortion," "Fragmented Pillar," and "Seduction." The organic, gently layered forms are crafted from surprisingly tough materials like terrazzo and sandstone yet communicate a sensuality that speaks to El Zein's personal experiences.
If you plan to venture out on the town this Sunday, be sure to head to Tribeca, where a late-morning gallery stroll will run from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. The historic neighborhood, with its classically beautiful prewar architecture and cobblestone streets, is being hailed as the hottest up-and-coming art hub in the city.

KUWAIT CITY, Aug 4, (KUNA): British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) on Thursday issued a statement apologizing for historical fabrications and false allegations about Kuwait's sovereignty.
It said that the question, which was raised by Trending Show presenter Rania Attar over Kuwait's historical sovereignty, appeared to have been asked in a wrong and unclear way that did not meet the BCC's impartiality criteria, and that's why an apology was needed.
It added that it cannot be a party in this regard or even adopt a certain view, especially in controversial matters according to the statement. "BBC would like to confirm that it handles such matters, which are related to its editorial policy based on balance, objectivity and neutrality, with much seriousness, and to do everything necessary to ensure that these criteria are met," it noted.
The Kuwaiti Ministry of Information on Thursday categorically rebuffed the fabrications and allegations of a BBC Arabic show on Kuwait's sovereignty. In the program, BBC alleged that up until 1920, Kuwait was part of Iraq.
But the Kuwaiti Ministry of Information issued a statement on Thursday, rebuffing BBC's "fabrications and allegations" on the country's sovereignty. The ministry "regretted" that BBC presenter Rania Al-Attar's program "Trending" had fabricated allegations about Kuwait's historic sovereignty and "violated professional rules, distorting historic facts." "Such false claims and serious mistakes are utterly unacceptable, especially when this comes from an international media outlet, which is supposed to observe professional criteria, and to clarify, not distort, facts," said the statement.
It drew question marks on the timing of such claims, which coincided with the 28th anniversary of Iraq's invasion of Kuwait. The ministry said it "has the right to pursue any entity or institution that deliberately commits this historic distortion" of facts.

Miquel Hudin reviews The Wines of Northern Spain by Sarah Jane Evans, MW
I had the pleasure to attend her session at Texsom 2 years ago. WTF, DO Pagos: A Critical Analysis with Sarah Jane Evans MW
She is a great speaker as well as writer.
Thanks for the link!
Sarah Jane and I both share no love for the Pago scheme. Don't know why it continues to be on CMS exams.
Is it relevant to the world of wine and Spain? Would a guest ask you about them? If so, then that is why it is on there. Regardless of opinion.
Vi de Vila/Vino de Villa of Priorat/Bierzo and Cava de Paratge isn't covered at anything up to and including the Advanced level and those are far more relevant to both the wine world as well as consumers.
No matter how many tastings I've led, I've never had anyone ask about Vino de Pago other than to confuse it with Grandes Pagos de España.
I think that's inaccurate information. I feel like I've been asked about Vi de Vila at Advanced and know that most folks studying for Advanced or MS are studying these topics in appropriate detail.
Did you have a lot of guests asks about Pagos in Spain this year? Although that question could be taken as combative, I really am genuinely curious.
I don't work in a restaurant anymore, so no. Nor do I find it combative. My point is whether you agree with it or not, it's still part of wine law and the world of wine.
We can't just pretend that it doesn't exist just because we don't agree. Hell I'd love to tell everyone that Mouton is still a second growth, because in France money can buy you into things as well too. But it's a first growth whether I agree or not.

Experts not taking promises made by the Bharatiya Janata Party, Congress seriously.
New Delhi: Though major political parties like the Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) have been making promises of introducing police reforms in their election manifestos for over three decades, such reforms have not seen the light of day yet.
Like in previous elections, in the ongoing Lok Sabha elections too, the Congress, as well as the BJP, have promised to implement police reforms. However, experts are not taking the poll promises of these parties seriously.
They say that the Congress did not pay any attention to the Supreme Court's direction which came in the Prakash Singh vs Union of India case. The Supreme Court's 2006 direction is considered as a landmark in the fight for police reforms in the country.
Prakash Singh, former police chief of several states, who has been fighting for implementation of police reforms in the country, told The Sunday Guardian: "Although the Congress has talked about police reforms and has said that consultations with states will be held to come to an agreement on police reforms, they don't say that the Supreme Court direction on police reforms will be implemented."
"When the Supreme Court direction came, the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) was in power and, ideally, the party should have responded on police reform guidelines, but it remained silent on the issue. They remained in power till 2014, but failed to introduce any measure for implementing police reforms. They slept over the matter (police reforms) for almost eight years and did nothing. Now, what will they do even if they are voted to power again? I don't have any hope from the Congress," Singh said.
In 2006, the Supreme Court gave seven binding directions to the states and Union Territories (UTs). The SC ordered the states and UTs to implement the directions immediately, either through legislation or executive order.
However, according to experts, the deep-rooted police–politician nexus in the states prevented the implementation of any of the directions.
On 12 April 2013, the Supreme Court again sternly asked the states and the Union government to furnish before it details of actions taken by them in establishing Security Commissions as ordered by it in its 2006 verdict.
According to Singh, though the Congress has at least spoken about police reforms, the BJP is not committed to police reforms at all. For the party, police reforms are more about modernising of the police force, instead of introducing any structural reforms.
"The BJP has not spoken about police reforms as the party is only committed to modernising the police forces—giving modern weapons, improved infrastructure, providing upgraded communication instruments and recruiting more manpower. But the country needs complete police reforms. I find the BJP manifesto very disappointing as it pays no attention to institutional reforms in the police," Singh said.
Asked if he had any hopes from the political parties, Singh said: "Expecting police reforms from the political parties is like asking feudal lords to give up feudalism. I don't have any hopes from the political parties. It is the Supreme Court that has been taking note of the matter of police reforms and that is the ray of hope. The court has given very positive response to the issue of police reforms and on Thursday also, I have filed an interim petition on this issue."
Singh said, "There is an urgent need for reforms in the entire criminal justice system which includes police, prosecution, judiciary and jails. But unfortunately, there is no talk of judicial or prosecution reforms; it is only police reforms that is in the debate."
Admitting to a lack of a people's movement in favour of police reforms, Singh added: "I am hopeful that in the coming 5-10 years, there will be a mass movement if police reforms are not implemented soon. People must come out in favour or police reforms."

A visit to Oxford Bus Museum
I set off for a walk and left my car there for the day, it was slightly overcast but warm and dry. Not long before the combine harvesters come out to gather the crops.
PS Blogger is mucking up the gaps between the photo's and text, which bugs me no end, bluddy blogger. I don't like it all scrunched up like this, I'll have to come back later to it and sort it out.
13 comments:
interesting place and photos,ReplyDelete
Gill in Canada
Love the morry photo. hubby tried teaching me to drive in his but decided for the sake of the relationship to pay a professional to teach me instead. good idea as we are still together 40 years later ha ha.ReplyDelete
I love the police car! I didn't know about this museum, so thanks for letting us tag along.ReplyDelete
Can't wait to see your Blenheim photos!
Is it tomorrow that you visit ILONA?
Jane x
In the second picture,the one with woman and child, is that a horse-drawn bus? Blogger puts two inches between my pictures and texts. I sort of like it better scrunched that stretched out too much.ReplyDelete
There's a rather dapper elderly lady who lives round here who drives around in an identical police car!ReplyDelete
I finally get a tour round parts of Britain following your adventures. Not bad for an old bird on the other side of the world, here in Tasmania.ReplyDelete
We went to pick up some pigs once from a guy that collected buses, he had converted one to live in. The toilet, and shower were the drivers seat, yes you had to sit on the toilet to have a shower!! I have a photo somewhere we were amazed. It was very ingenious!!ReplyDelete
Love the museum, I didn't even know we had a Bus Museum in Oxford!!
Sue xx
This has brought back a few memories of charabanc rides.ReplyDelete
That was an interesting outing.ReplyDelete
Still hope to meet up with you on Sunday.
Thanks for your phone call by the way. I had to keep the conversation short as I was in the middle of preparing our dinner. Sorry, if I came across somewhat ubrupt. Shall make up for this when we meet, I promise!
Hi Jane, I went to see Blenheim after the museum. There are that many photo's I have decided to post them when I get back. This net book is not very fast.ReplyDelete
Not to worry Sarina, I can't afford to talk for ages on a mobile.
Hello Ilona, dropped in for a visit from John's Don't Unplug Your Hub blog and stayed quite awhile to look around. Especially enjoyed your money-saving tips section. Many were new to me; others I have done. We are also returned and believe in living a frugal lifestyle. It's true that we don't deny ourselves, but we also do not spend foolishly or on things we can get for less$$. For example, there is no TV service in our home, we always check out thrift stores at home and when traveling, we only buy a grocery item if we are out of it or nearly out of it, books are only bought at library sales or thrift stores or more often borrowed from the library. All thrift store books are donated back after reading. We also have found some great bargains when traveling and one day will add these to our blog. This visit to the bus museum looked like a place we would visit too. And, like yourself, we have met a few fellow bloggers and they do indeed seem like old friends. We are hoping to meet more in the future. Thanks for the video on the corret pronnunciation of your name, which is very lovely. Feel free to drop in for a visit to our blog anytime as the guest mat is always out.ReplyDelete
Looks like a great place to visit.ReplyDelete
Just seen your blog and pleased you enjoyed your visit. Lots of new events and exhibits arriving this year as 2013 is the Centenary for Oxford Motorbuses and for Morris Car manufacture, so please come again. www.oxfordbusmuseum.org.ukReplyDelete

Did you know Regina has a world-class solar resource and is one of the best places in Canada to install solar? Then why is the door being closed on the solar industry in Saskatchewan? Join us at our rally and let's speak up about why solar is an important energy resource for Saskatchewan.
Bring a sign with your message of support for the solar industry!

Aviation Director Nyika Allen Announces Added Capacity Into and Out of the Sunport for Balloon Fiesta – September 20, 2018
Travelers looking for options to get to and from Albuquerque for the world's largest hot air ballooning event have more choices thanks to added capacity from several airlines. American, Delta, and United have all added an average of 34 percent in the week leading up to the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta.
"This added capacity for Balloon Fiesta not only gives travelers more options for one of New Mexico's most well-known events, it also tells us that these airlines see the value in our market," said Nyika Allen, Director of Aviation for the City of Albuquerque. "Air service initiatives play a vital role in our state's tourism industry, and we are excited to be working with each airline serving the Sunport to help bring more people to Albuquerque for one of the state's largest annual events."
The Sunport has seen tremendous growth this year. For the first six months of 2018, passenger totals have been up nearly 14 percent and many carriers have added additional year-round capacity or new destinations.

20 Tiki Drinks You've Got to Try Before You Die
Fog Cutter
This three-spirit blend (white rum, gin, brandy) hails from the shaker of Victor "Trader Vic" Bergeron, one of the early trailblazers of Tiki lore. And one of the key ingredients in any Fog Cutter (besides the booze, of course) is orgeat, a sweet almond syrup, which Bergeron helped introduce in the American drinking vernacular.
- Recipe: Fog Cutter
Test Pilot
Don the Beachcomber, the father of the Tiki drink movement, aptly named this drink after the surge in flight advancements during the 1940s. According to Jeff "Beachbum" Berry, a modern-day Tiki researcher, this cocktail inspired other aviation cocktails such as the Astronaut, Space Pilot, and the Jet Pilot.
- Recipe: Test Pilot
Blue Hawaiian
At the behest of sales reps for blue curacao, bartender Harry Yee created this Technicolor classic at the Hilton Hawai'i Village in Waikiki in 1957.
- Recipe: Blue Hawaiian
Nui Nui
Modern-day Tiki "archaeologist" Beachbum Barry cracked the code for this drink after deciphering what "spices number two" and "spices number four" were in Don the Beachcomber's little black books (Donn Beach was notoriously secretive) at his eponymous tiki bar. The secret? A mixture of allspice and vanilla and cinnamon-infused sugar syrup.
- Recipe: Nui Nui
Banana Daiquiri
Cocktail legend holds that British sea captain George Soule scoured the Caribbean for the ultimate cocktail, and found it in the U.S. Virgin Islands. The tropical blend of Virgin Islands Cruzan Rum, sugar cane extract, and ripe bananas is still served at the Mountain Top bar on St. Thomas. Learn how to make an impressive banana dolphin garnish here.
- Recipe: Banana Daiquiri
Navy Grog
Lapu Lapu
Though named for the fierce Filipino warrior chief, this blended rum drink is more fruity than feisty.
- Recipe: Lapu Lapu
Piña Colada
While the true inventor of the official drink of Puerto Rico is hotly contested—the Caribe Hilton and The Barrachina in San Juan both hang plaques claiming to be the birthplace—there's no doubt this Tiki classic is a sip of pineapple-coconut heaven.
- Recipe: Piña Colada
Rum Runner
Faced with an excess of rum and fruity liqueurs, a Holiday Isle Tiki Bar bartender turned its surplus product into a Tiki legend, which he named after the bootleggers of Florida's Prohibition days.
- Recipe: Rum Runner
151 Swizzle
Unlike most Tiki drinks, this Don the Beachcomber cocktail is on the simpler side, meaning you'll want to use a higher quality rum for the extra-boozy concoction. Also, don't forget to serve it in a flared metal cup, the 151 Swizzle's signature vessel for over 40 years.
- Recipe: 151 Swizzle
Mai Tai
Despite dozens of fabulous drinks that have come out of Tiki's golden age, the Mai Tai is far and away its poster child. In fact, this Trader Vic original was so popular that it depleted world rum supplies in the '40s and '50s.
- Recipe: Mai Tai
What do you get when you mix one secretive restaurant owner and barmaid, a Pusser's rum founder, and a drink blending competition? A nutmeg-freckled Tiki beverage that's now known as the official cocktail of the British Virgin Islands.
- Recipe: Painkiller
Deep Sea Diver
Serve your Deep Sea Diver in a traditional highball glass, or go full throwback and pour it into a Pearl Diver Glass with its signature ribbed base.
- Recipe: Deep Sea Diver
Missionary's Downfall
The peach brandy used in a Missionary's Downfall is hard to come by, but worth the liquor store reconnaissance. Go full farm-to-glass for this Don the Beachcomber original and blend fresh mint sprigs into this invigorating tipple.
- Recipe: Missionary's Downfall
Passion Fruit Zombie
The elusive Zombie (Beachbum Barry searched for years before piecing together Don the Beachcomber's recipe) was said to have packed quite a punch, so much so that Beachcomber himself would serve no more than two per customer. So sip slowly, and enjoy our passion fruit twist on the cocktail classic.
- Recipe: Passion Fruit Zombie
The rum and brandy Scorpion first came onto the cocktail scene via a small bar in Honolulu, but Trader Vic swiftly adopted it for his Tiki empire in the Bay Area. You can make it an individual drink, but we prefer to sip it out of a kitschy-cute scorpion bowl with friends.
- Recipe: Scorpion
3 Dots and a Dash
Three dots and a dash—which means "victory" in Morse code—is cleverly interpreted in the garnish of three cherries and a pineapple slice on this Don the Beachcomber classic.
- Recipe: 3 Dots and a Dash
Planter's Punch
The earliest mention of this Jamaican cocktail dates back to 1895 in the book Modern American Drinks as Jamaican Rum Punch. But the Caribbean cocktail didn't fully rise to prominence until Don the Beachcomber started to put rum drinks on the map in the 1930s.
- Recipe: Planter's Punch
Planter's Punch
Singapore Sling
In turn-of-the-century Singapore, women couldn't consume anything stronger than tea in public without breaching etiquette. Enter Raffles Hotel bartender Ngiam Tong Boon, who crafted the Singapore Sling: a rosy, feminine beverage that looked like a fruit juice and drank like a cocktail.
- Recipe: Singapore Sling
Bahama Hurricane
The Caribbean version of the legendary New Orleans punch, made with coffee liqueur, Irish cream, and orange liqueur, makes for a smooth nightcap.

As part of their unit on dinosaurs and fossils, students cast a miniature set of 18 Triceratops "bones." They used a material called Perfect Cast- like plaster, but stronger. Once the bones were removed from the mold, they were allowed to dry.
The following week, students first had to remove any extra matrix using sandpaper. They then had to organize the bones as they would have been in the live dinosaur. This entailed a discussion about skeletal anatomy, working outwards from the spine. Then, once the correct structure was determined for the pelvis and legs, the bones were mounted.
If your student wants more, additional skeletons- T-Rex, Velociraptor, and Stegosaurus are sold by Skullduggery.
They also sell kits to cast dinosaur teeth and claws!
An excellent field trip is an excursion to Aurora, NC. It's about 2.5 hours away from Raleigh, relatively close to New Bern. The fossil museum there is small but excellent. And they have a giant pile of "fossil dirt," like students brought home a few weeks ago, out front where you can dig to your heart's content.

Success of millets has made many farmers shift from GM Bt cotton, soy, and maize
EXCERPT: The success of millets has made many farmers shift from Bt cotton, soybean and maize to millets. Those who found it difficult to grow food crops have also taken the millet path. Says Gangadhar Alagavadi, who suffered loss with groundnut for the last three years, "I decided to try barnyard millet and little millet in one acre each. While other crops failed due to scarce rain, millets have yielded well."
Revival of climate-smart crops
Anandateertha Pyati
Deccan Herald, Oct 3 2017
A unique world of millets unfolds as one travels across Kundagol taluk in Dharwad district. Nine varieties of millets grown successfully in over 300 acres of this drought-prone area offer hope amidst the impending dangers of climate change. Sahaja Samrudha organisation started working in this area with Hanumanahalli as the centre in 2014, under a project of the Agriculture Department.
For effective implementation of the project, a group of around 80 farmers called 'Sanjivini Savayava Krushikara Balaga' was formed. The prime objectives of the project were to encourage farmers to take up organic cultivation and popularise heritage varieties. Till then, little millet, foxtail millet and sorghum were the only millet varieties grown in the fields here. Two years ago, proso millet was introduced to the farms as the first step to increase diversity. "The crop yielded well despite the delay in rains. This gave me confidence to increase the area of cultivation," says farmer Ishwara Gowda Patil. Eventually, he shared his success and distributed seeds to several farmers in Hanumanahalli and surrounding villages. Gradually, other varieties like barnyard millet, brown top millet and finger millet entered the fields of Kundagol taluk.
With many advantages such as low- maintenance, health benefits, market demand, fodder value, and ecological benefits, these crops soon gained an edge over other crops and as a result, the cultivation area increased. To cater to the seed requirements of the farmers, a seed bank was set up. Like in any other seed bank, seeds are the currency in this seed bank too. The farmers don't have to pay while collecting the seeds from the seed bank, but are required to return double the quantity of seeds after harvest. Over 150 farmers have approached the bank so far.
The success of millets has made many farmers shift from Bt cotton, soybean and maize to millets. Those who found it difficult to grow food crops have also taken the millet path. Says Gangadhar Alagavadi, who suffered loss with groundnut for the last three years, "I decided to try barnyard millet and little millet in one acre each. While other crops failed due to scarce rain, millets have yielded well."
Some of the farmers have made an effort to diversify the crops by collecting sub-varieties. One such enthusiast, Yallappa Ramji, has cultivated six varieties of little millet. Besides these, he has also grown brown top millet and foxtail millet. "It didn't rain for many days after sowing and I was worried that the crops won't come up. But fortunately, it rained for a few days and that was sufficient for millets. I have not seen such a robust growth with little rain in crops like cotton, groundnut and maize that are traditionally grown here,"
Yallappa says.
He is also amazed by the pest and disease resistant properties of these crops. Each variety has a unique property and use. Realising the advantages of millets over other crops, farmers here have decided to extend the cultivation area. They are also planning to experiment with mixed cropping with desi cotton and millets.
Hanumanahalli and other villages also have the distinction of growing nine millet varieties.
Though processing is a bottleneck for millet farmers, the growers association is exploring the possibilities. While Dinesh Kadiri, an agri-entrepreneur, has acknowledged the quality of the millets and purchased unprocessed grains in bulk, a local flour mill has made some adjustments to its machines to process millets. The farmers group also participates in millet fairs organised regularly in different parts of Karnataka and even other states. As a result of all these efforts, the farmers have marketed around 50 tonnes of millets last year. This year the quantity is expected to cross 200 tonnes.

Health is a tricky thing, and it can feel like you have more questions than answers. The Sheaf recently accepted health-related questions through a callout on Instagram, and we did our best to give you an answer here. Read through to the end to see how you can be a part of the next iteration.
I need a bigger booty. Why is this so much work?
Everything in this life takes work, and that generally sucks. Looking in the mirror and taking a mental Photoshop tool to your body has never worked for us. Our suggestion would be to focus on your mentality when striving for that big booty.
We would argue that, although determination and willpower are integral to reaching goals of any kind, being kind to yourself is equally important. Our suggestion would be to try to learn to love the way you look now while you work out. Loving yourself and the way you look is incredibly hard in the world we live in, but we believe in you.
Working out can help you reach your goals, but what we are saying is that seeing physical changes can take some time, and if you're comfortable in the body you have, waiting to see the fruits of your labour can be little less hard.
Do I really feel depressed or is it just my hormones temporarily messing with me?
Depression versus hormones or depression and hormones? If a hormonal imbalance is causing depressive symptoms, you may not find relief from antidepressants or anti-anxiety medications.
Hormones, such as those produced by the thyroid gland, can affect depressive symptoms — depression is a common symptom of hypothyroidism. Estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and cortisol are hormones that can all affect mood-related symptoms based on their levels and your body's sensitivity to them.
Women are more vulnerable to experiencing feelings of depression because of fluctuating hormones. The yo-yo effect of hormones throughout a woman's life and throughout the menstrual cycle can affect her mood and can be especially detrimental to those vulnerable to depression and anxiety.
While premenstrual syndrome symptoms are generally manageable on a daily basis, premenstrual dysphoric disorder causes debilitating physical and emotional symptoms. Researchers believe PMDD may be an abnormal reaction to hormone changes during the menstrual cycle.
Studies have shown a correlation between PMDD and low levels of serotonin. Serotonin levels control mood, attention, sleep and pain.
The only way to really know where your depressive symptoms are coming from is to talk to your doctor. Keeping a diary of when your symptoms are the most problematic can help your doctor determine if there is specific timing throughout your cycle that may be hormone-related depression or if there are certain events that could change your hormone levels.
Why does my back hurt?
Oof, that is relatable. Your back could hurt from a number of reasons. Jack's back hurts due to a high school football injury, bad posture, a job where he has to lift things and sitting a little too much in general.
Jack uses a foam roller and a massager and tries to go to the Recreation Services fitness class "Yoga for Backs" — it's at 12:05 p.m. on Mondays, and if you get to even one class, the method used there is pretty replicable in your own home.
Finally, the quality of the furniture you sit on most often can have an impact as well. Jack suggests researching and purchasing a high-quality chair if you do lots of studying at home — it's helped him a ton.
As with all health matters, please consult your doctor. If you would like to be part of the next advice article, keep an eye on the Sheaf's Instagram where we will post calls for questions on our story.

Activists in Georgia say they managed to hold a
Earlier, organizers had said that the event had been cancelled after the planned route of the march was leaked online. The Pride March had been originally planned for June 22 but organizers postponed it after a violent police crackdown against anti-occupation demonstrators in the capital.
Opponents of Tbilisi Pride
Businessman Levan Vasadze called on supporters to assemble at Vera Park at 10:00 am on July 8. According to him, "Tbilisi Pride's" "March of Dignity" will not be held. He said tens of thousands of supporters will be mobilized and they will wait for the "time and place of holding the march." Levan Vasadze asserts they intend to protect the order.
"We are going there for protecting the order. A lot of people will arrive at Vera Park to protect the order…Our goal is to break a police cordon and manhandle the propagandists of obsceneness and inversion," Levan Vasadze said and called on the citizens to bind white napkins and belts on their hands "in order to recognize each other and by using the belts to manhandle those, who assault our country," Vasadze said in a video address released on Sunday evening.
Anti-occupation rally
Peaceful demonstrations against the occupation have been taking place in front of the Parliament building since 20th of June. The protesters demand the resignation of Interior Minister Giorgi Gakharia, the release of people detained on the 20th of June and the conduct of proportional elections in 2020. The government agreed to two demands but refuses to remove Gakharia from his post. According to the organizers, the demonstrations will continue unless all their demands are responded.
The events taking place June 20-21 in Georgia
Angered by the presence of Sergei Gavrilov in Georgia, the citizens gathered at the Parliament building in Tbilisi to protest Russian occupation in Georgia on the 20th of June. Sergei Gavrilov, a deputy of the Russian Duma from the Communist Party was leading the Inter-Parliamentary Assembly on Orthodoxy at that time. When a photo of him sitting in the Chairman's chair in the Parliament of Georgia on the 20th of June was spread, opposition parties, as well as ordinary citizens, called on the authorities to take proper measures.
The assembly was canceled and Sergei Gavrilov left Georgia but the demonstrations against Russian occupation continued. Protesters demanded the resignation of the Chairperson of the Parliament Irakli Kobakhidze. During the demonstration on the 20th of June, a small group of protesters was said to be encouraged by a number of opposition leaders to storm the Parliament building. Police used tear gas, rubber bullets and water cannon to stop protesters entering the country's parliament. Dozens of Injured police officers, civilians and journalists were taken to the hospital. Two civilians had to undergo enucleation procedure. Law enforcers detained a number of demonstrators. On the 21st of June, Irakli Kobakhidze resigned.

Century 21 Real Estate LLC, franchisor of the iconic Century 21 brand, has unveiled a rebranding campaign that represents a complete overhaul of one of real estate's most recognizable icons.
"Complacency and mediocrity have taken hold of the real estate industry, and consumers have become distrustful and indifferent toward real estate professionals," says the company in a news release. "That mindset is brought into sharp focus by a just-released Wakefield survey, commissioned by Century 21 Real Estate, in which 63 per cent of respondents thought buying a car would take longer than finding a real estate agent. When asked if planning a vacation would take longer than finding a real estate agent, 55 per cent said it would. And nearly 40 per cent thought selling their home would be worse than getting a root canal."
The company says the new brand was developed "around the disconnect between the investment people make in buying or selling a home and the perceived value they receive from finding the right real estate agent who fits their needs."
Cara Whitley, chief marketing officer for Century 21 Real Estate says, "This is just the beginning of the bold ambitions we have for challenging existing conventions in real estate relationships and to progress the industry in ways that favour the consumer yet directly help our agents and brokers break through the clutter and noise and win in the markets they operate in."
The new logo features a refreshed colour palette "that stays true to its iconic gold and black scheme" while also embracing new graphics, the company says.

Upon arrival, survivors John Anderson, Louis Conter, Donald Stratton, and Lauren Bruner were piped aboard and saluted by an honor guard of service members from several branches of the armed services while the Pacific Fleet Band played patriotic music.
Lt. Cmdr. Alex Torres, assigned to JBPHH, was the lead coordinator for the ceremony. It was his second time serving in this capacity.
"I was in charge last year and was asked to do it again this year," he said. "I feel very privileged."
Boatswain's Mate 1st Class Leszek Romero, also assigned to JBPHH, was the one to actually pipe the Arizona survivors aboard.
"This is an amazing honor," he said. "These men are definitely part of one of the greatest generations."
Romero, a native of Honduras, joined the U.S. Navy Sept. 11, 2001 and credits men like the ones being honored for inspiring him to enlist.
After the arrival ceremony, the four veterans participated in a press conference. They spoke of their experiences and answered questions from the audience. Many people said they were impressed that four men in their 90s could make such a long, exhausting trip, to which Stratton simply replied, "Everybody has to be someplace."
This year marks the 73rd anniversary of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. It is also the final year the USS Arizona Reunion Association will hold an official reunion. On Dec. 7, the survivors will mark the occasion by holding a ceremony aboard the USS Arizona Memorial when they will pour a "final toast" to their shipmates.
The four survivors said they were confident that they would have another reunion in the future, official or not.
"I don't think this will be our last one," said Conter. "We still have some time to go."
