This Project is a house of small format, studio type, which was conceived as part of a plan with other houses that will be built in the future. It is located in the mountains of Malpaís, Costa Rica, in a property with vegetation typical of the tropical dry forest. The house was located in a way that is not going to interfere with the view of other houses that are projected in the master plan. Using this location, the existing trees were not cut and it was possible to take advantage of the amazing view of the north Pacific coast. The selection of the site was done with extreme care, and the specific point has an excellent view of the sunset and other natural phenomena: from the deck, it is even possible, during certain months, to observe whales.Save this picture!© Roberto AmbrosioSave this picture!Floor PlanThe house is almost a bedroom, which disappears and merges with the exterior when the blinds are open. The tall windows that open up completely to the deck, help out to make the most of this interaction with the outdoor space. This relationship between inside and outside was maximized with the design of a bridge, which extends like an arm, and allows to touch the branches of the trees around the house. In the pool, it is possible to see the ocean from above and the trees at the same level, and it’s probable that a curious monkey finds its way to the house. The design was also influenced by the empathy that the owner has with the ocean. This was perceived from the beginning and the project reflects it. The shape of the roof resembles the wavy ocean. The location, high and privileged, reminds us of a yacht cabin that seems to navigate in the forest canopy. And the exterior bridge is almost like a bowsprit, pointing north.Save this picture!© Roberto AmbrosioTo design in the Pacific north coast of Costa Rica is a subject that needs to be carefully considered to avoid loose ends. Things like the temperature, corrosion, having big openings to take advantage of the views and the incidence of the sun need to be analyzed and incorporated into the design. All of this reminds us how the old houses were built in this area, where all those elements were considered. Even though this is a contemporary design, the essence of those old houses was preserved, like the way to protect the interiors from the elements and how to make it fresh in the inside. However, the traditional roof shapes were discarded and long curved and straight lines were projected to protect the glasses that were used to open up the views and avoid the direct solar radiation. Regarding the materials used in this project, it is a mix of new and traditional materials. Save this picture!© Roberto AmbrosioFor example in the pergola, the material combination helps out to filter the bright light and repel the dry season intense heat. For the floors and exterior paths, natural stones were used to decrease the temperature. The closeness of the trees provides shadow to the house and the air currents were exploited to provide a sensation of natural air conditioning. The teak and melina wood that was used is from controlled plantations which are located around 10 kilometers of the construction site. In general, the majority of materials that were used, like cement, blocks and others are from national fabrication. There were a minority of materials that were imported, like the natural stone.Save this picture!Section 1Save this picture!© Roberto AmbrosioProject gallerySee allShow lessThe Challenges of Preserving a Small, Local – and Globally Famous – Design LegacyArticlesThe Tallest Statue in the World is Completed in IndiaArchitecture News Share Earth and Sea House / José Manuel Álvarez Cruz Houses CopyAbout this officeJosé Manuel Álvarez CruzOfficeFollowProductsWoodSteelConcrete#TagsProjectsBuilt ProjectsSelected ProjectsResidential ArchitectureHousesMalpaisCosta RicaPublished on October 31, 2018Cite: “Earth and Sea House / José Manuel Álvarez Cruz” [Casa de la Tierra y el Mar / José Manuel Álvarez Cruz] 31 Oct 2018.

This project is a small, mixed-use building in a mixed-use enclave on the interface between the central city of Cape Town and the Bo Kaap. The site was initially vacant; bounded on three sides by existing heritage buildings in poor condition, whilst further down the street, a diverse collection of commercial buildings from the second half of the 20th century have replaced the older fabric.Save this picture!© Adam LetchThe presence of the retaining wall to the service road gives these buildings a shared podium, meaning that they will always be seen as an ensemble rather than as slices of a city face only ever seen in close oblique. Because the zoning scheme allows for a five-storey building, the land price allows for no less be built, and so the stage is set for an interesting game – how to find a building form which incorporates into itself the tensions of this context whilst developing a coherent presence of its own.Save this picture!© Adam LetchSave this picture!First Floor PlanSave this picture!© Adam LetchLayered onto the complexity of context is a complex brief or set of briefs. The city demands on-site parking, the street would benefit from an active frontage, the architects need a new studio, and the client, an art collector, wants a ‘skypad’ and insists that it is all made from concrete. The key to the solution is a tightly planned circulation core located front and centre of the site.Save this picture!© Adam LetchSave this picture!Section AAThe building line restrictions mean that the lift cannot rise to the top floor, and so a two-level penthouse comes into play, with living spaces located at third floor level and bedrooms and a lap pool, en suite to the en-suites occurring at fourth floor level. This placement allows for the mass to be broken down forming a picturesque skyline stepped away from the street edge, with a viewing balcony facing the city and a sheltered terrace looking up to Signal Hill. The pad is held up in the sky by a base, consisting of a pair of double-volume studio spaces flanking the internal circulation.Save this picture!© Adam LetchTheir spatial arrangement has a built-in flexibility with shared common uses, allowing it to function as singular studio in the future should the need arise. The lane-way adjacent to the south-west elevation results in a narrow separation in the solidity of continuous facades, sufficiently so to place a diagonal emphasis on this corner of the building when viewed from the street.Save this picture!North East ElevationThe lowest level is a podium of parking, sliding seven bays into the slope of the site through a single slatted-steel screen. Most of the street wall is given over to glazing. A giant order door at the scale of the older adjacent faҫades gives entry to a double-height hallway; overlooked by a bridge that joins the lift access to the studios. Adjacent to the lobby is a small gallery, displaying art to both patrons and to the street.Save this picture!© Adam LetchProject gallerySee allShow lessLandscape House / FORM | Kouichi Kimura ArchitectsSelected ProjectsSalesianos Pamplona Institute / Garmendia Cordero Arquitectos + TCGA ArquitectosSelected ProjectsProject locationAddress:236 Buitengracht St, Bo-Kaap, Cape Town, 8000, South AfricaLocation to be used only as a reference.

CES publishes guide to Monitoring and Evaluation on a Shoestring Howard Lake | 18 February 2011 | News Tagged with: Management Charities Evaluation Services’ National Performance Programme has published ‘Monitoring and Evaluation on a Shoestring’, a free guide for charities with limited budgets who want to develop their monitoring and evaluation approach and improve their effectiveness.The need for charities and organisations to demonstrate the difference that they are making is only going to grow as funding pressures on the sector increase. While many third sector organisations do monitor and evaluate their work, CES believes that many of them are better at describing whatthey do rather than the difference they make to people’s lives.The new guide shows that evaluation does not have to be expensive and there is a lot that organisations can do themselves through self-evaluation.Andy Gregg, Charities Evaluation Services Chief Executive, said: ‘Monitoring and evaluation are an integral part of a well-run charity and should be seen as vital tools in helping an organisation adapt and develop their services to meet need and improve efficiency. Dynamic, effective organisations put learning and development at the heart of their planning, and this free guide aims to help them to do so”.The guide offers a simple but systematic approach to monitoring and evaluating. It can be used by trustees, staff and volunteers of third sector organisations. It will be particularly useful for those who have responsibility for self-evaluation and for using the information both internally and for reporting to funders and investors.It includes ./guidance on getting ready to monitor and evaluate an organisation’s work, explains some common evaluation terms, helps organisations to identify the outputs and outcomes of their work, explores how to identify the data that organisations need to collect, provides good practice ./guidance in collecting data, describes some methods for collecting data and discusses how to use the data collected.Charities Evaluation Services was established in 1990 and works with thousands of voluntary organisations and funders of all sizes each year, strengthening their abilities in performance management, evaluation and quality, to support them to do what they do best.The publication is free to download atwww.ces-vol.org.uk/shoestring AddThis Sharing ButtonsShare to TwitterTwitterShare to FacebookFacebookShare to LinkedInLinkedInShare to EmailEmailShare to WhatsAppWhatsAppShare to MessengerMessengerShare to MoreAddThis 45 total views, 1 views today AddThis Sharing ButtonsShare to TwitterTwitterShare to FacebookFacebookShare to LinkedInLinkedInShare to EmailEmailShare to WhatsAppWhatsAppShare to MessengerMessengerShare to MoreAddThis About Howard Lake Howard Lake is a digital fundraising entrepreneur.

Gov. Mitch Daniels of Indiana has not had much to say about the current deadly heat wave that has swept his state and much of the United States. Sitting in his air-conditioned office, he is largely insulated from the disaster that is sweeping not only Indianapolis, the state capital, but most of the country.In Fort Wayne, Ind., the temperature of 103 tied an all-time record high set during the Dust Bowl era in 1934 and 1936 and later during the blistering summer of 1988. As of July 8, one of the worst heat waves in U.S. history continues its hold, with temperatures of 100 degrees or higher spreading to northeastern cities, including Philadelphia and New York.The heat set records on July 7 in Washington — 105 degrees — as well as in St. Louis with 106 and Indianapolis with 104. More than 2,500 heat records have been broken in the U.S. since July 1, and almost 25,000 heat records have been broken so far this year. (ABC News, July 9)At least 30 deaths are being blamed on the heat, including nine in Maryland and 10 in Chicago, mostly among the elderly. Heat was also cited as a factor in three deaths in Wisconsin, two in Tennessee and three in Pennsylvania. (Associated Press, July 7)In Colorado 30,000 people are recovering from one of the most devastating wildfires in history, which destroyed hundreds of homes. Across the West a record number of wildfires are raging more or less out of control, caused by months — in some cases, years — of record heat and drought. A steady drop in the annual snowpack on the Rocky Mountains has severely limited irrigation and the water available for people to drink.Oppressive heat waves. Horrendous wildfires. Devastating droughts as well as flooding from giant deluges. And a powerful freak wind storm, called a derecho, which downed power lines across a wide swath of the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic regions.Daniels leads ‘deniers’ of climate changeIs all this just freakish weather — or something more? Some climate specialists suggest that if you want a glimpse of the future of global warming, just take a look at U.S. weather in recent weeks.Gov. Daniels would not agree. Here’s the derisive and bigoted language he used to dismiss global warming last year:“A relentless project has inundated Americans for years with the demand that we must drastically reduce the carbon dioxide we emit as a society. It is asserted that the earth is warming; that this warming would have negative rather than positive consequences; that the warming is man-made rather than natural; that radical changes in the American economy can make a material difference in this phenomenon. …“The debate, so far, has been dominated by ‘experts’ from the University of Hollywood and the P.C. Institute of Technology.“Any dissident voice is likely to be the target of a fatwa issued by one Ayatollah or another of the climate change theocracy, branding the dissenter as a ‘denier’ for refusing to bow down to the ‘scientific consensus.’“The late author and scientist Michael Crichton spoke witheringly of this pattern in a speech at Cal Tech. He said, ‘I regard consensus science as an extremely pernicious development that should be stopped cold in its tracks.’” (Daniels’ speech to Rose-Hulman graduates quoted in gadfly.blogspot.com, May 2011)Apparently, Daniels prefers Michael Crichton, whose main claim to fame was that he became a multimillionaire by marketing a series of science fiction books like “Jurassic Park” and “The Andromeda Strain,” to scientists and academics from Purdue University, an Indiana engineering school which has issued many warnings about global warming and the influence of carbon dioxide emissions.On June 21, as record wildfires raged in Colorado and across much of the West, the Daily Green republished a 2009 report by Purdue University’s Diffenbaugh Laboratory, which linked the risk of fires to global warming.On the same day, Purdue University trustees announced they had chosen Gov. Daniels to be president of the university.It is the first time that Purdue appointed a president who did not have any experience in running an academic institution. Daniels has savaged both university and public schools. He has been a loyal supporter of both the petroleum and coal industries in Indiana.But that is ignoring his main “qualification.” He appointed eight of the 12 trustees.Whether all these recent weather events are the result of global warming can only be verified in the future. But it is clear that “deniers” like Mitch Daniels and his ilk don’t really care about the future well-being of humanity. They’re too busy padding the wallets of their capitalist paymasters.FacebookTwitterWhatsAppEmailPrintMoreShare thisFacebookTwitterWhatsAppEmailPrintMoreShare this read more

Top StoriesPersons Without Digital Access Can Take Help Of Friends, Families, NGOs, Common Service Centres For CoWIN Registration : Centre Tells SC Srishti Ojha9 May 2021 11:26 PMShare This – xWhile defending its stand to have online registration for Covid vaccinations, the Centre has submitted before the Supreme Court that citizens who have no access to CoWIN app, can get assistance from Common Service Centres established by gram panchayats at grassroot levels. Centre has stated that such persons without digital access can also take help from friends, family, NGOs and Common Service Centres for COWIN registration.Advertisement “…citizens who do not have access to digital resources can take help from family, friends, NGOs, and above referred Common Service Centres (CSC), etc., for online registration in Co-WIN”, the Central Government said in its affidavit.The registration through the Co-Win app introduced by the Central Government is necessary to get slots for COVID vaccination. For citizens who have no access to COWIN app, Common Service Centres at grassroot levels will give assistance.Such person without digital access can also take help from friends, family, NGOs and Common Service Centres for COWIN registration – Centre tells SC.#CovidVaccines pic.twitter.com/NJBqjtirPm— Live Law (@LiveLawIndia) May 10, 2021Advertisement Referring to the Common Service Centres, the Central government has stated that these centres provide access to the internet to a vast variety of persons who may not be adept in using it or may not have direct access to it. Centre has further said that almost all gram panchayats have established these common service centres which have a digital platform to be used by the people. These CSCs and its infrastructure is widely and effectively used in rural areas for various purposes and is found to be an effective module taking the development to the grass root levels. Advertisement Advertisement Centre has stated that much of India resides in rural areas which are governed by local self governments at grass root levels like Panchayats, and these grass root level bodies are very successfully representing rural India in all schemes of both State and Centre. The submissions have been made through an affidavit filed by the Centre in compliance with the order of the Supreme court dated April 30, 2021 in Suo Moto case regarding distribution of essential supplies and services during the pandemic.Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement The Centre’s submission have been in made in response to supreme court’s direction seeking response from Centre regarding initiatives, if any started by Central and State Governments have introduced any initiatives for ensuring the immunisation of persons who do not have access to digital resources. “Whether the Central and State Governments have introduced any initiatives for ensuring the immunization of persons who do not have access to digital resources as otherwise the mandatory requirement of registration over the Co-WIN digital portal for persons in the age group of18-44 years will deprive a large class of citizens of vaccination”, a bench comprising Justices DY Chandrachud, L Nageswara Rao and S Ravindra Bhat had asked the Centre.In response, Centre has opined that online registration will effectively avoid any such overcrowding as different time slots are given in advance to each of the applicant after online registration to ensure that at any given point of time, crowding in the vaccination area is avoided. The Central government has informed the top Court that presently, for vaccination of the 18-44 years age group, only online system of registration and booking is available which is a decision taken keeping in mind several administrative factors and for effective vaccine administration. According to the Centre, considering that doses of vaccine are not unlimited and there are constraints of production capacities, permitting walk in vaccination or registration is anticipated to result in overcrowding at the vaccination centres, defeating the very purpose of vaccination. The Court had directed Central Government to clarify the following issue in order to ensure the protection of the fundamental rights to equality and to life and personal liberty for all persons eligible to take the vaccine from 1 May 2021: “Whether the Central and State Governments have introduced any initiatives for ensuring the immunisation of persons who do not have access to digital resources as otherwise the mandatory requirement of registration over the Co-WIN digital portal for persons in the age group of 18-44 years will deprive a large class of citizens of vaccination” the top Court had asked the Centre.

Sponsored Content The Penny Hoarder Issues “Urgent” Alert: 6 Companies… Email the author As residents embark on an effort to “take back” Galloway Park, the Brundidge police chief is asking for the public’s help in enforcing the ban on alcohol at the park.Brundidge Police Chief Moses Davenport said his officers patrol the park on a regular basis but need assistance from patrons of the park in enforcing the no-alcohol regulations at the park. Skip Remember America’s heroes on Memorial Day Troy falls to No. 13 Clemson Print Article Davenport said the park closes at dark so there should be no activity at the park after sundown unless there is an event at the park’s community center.“When there’s an event at the Galloway Park community building, then people have to be inside or they are gone,” Davenport said.“We’ll continue to patrol the park and we’ll patrol in unmarked vehicles, too. Also, I’m asking, for the assistance of patrons of the park in letting us know of any activity that seems suspicious and we’ll respond. The Brundidge Police Department takes pride in what we do and, if we fall short sometimes, it’s not deliberate. We are dedicated to keeping Galloway Park and all of Brundidge safe.”The number to call to report any concerns or suspicious activity is 735-3333. Book Nook to reopen By Jaine Treadwell Brundidge police chief seeks public’s help enforcing alcohol ban in park The chief said those almost any Sunday or Monday morning the beer cans in the trashcans at Galloway Park are evidence of drinking at the park.“Galloway Park is an open park,” Davenport said. “It’s for adults just like it is for children. And people go where their friends are, so people do gather up at the park at times.“But when I pull up or one of our officers pulls up, they’ll have their drinks in cups so it’s a difficult situation. Now, I’m not making excuses. Don’t think for a minute that I condone what’s going on, I’m just saying the way it is.” “That’s not to say that we are asking patrons of the park to intervene in any situations,” Davenport said. “But we can’t be there all the time. So, if any patron of the park or anyone in the neighborhood sees anything they think should not be going on, they should call the police department and let us know. They don’t have to give their names, just let us know and we’ll respond.”Residents gathered at the park on Saturday for “Take Back Our Park,” an event focused on improving safety at the public park and addressing concerns over loitering, alcohol use, drug use and the physical condition of the park. Galloway Park has a playground for children, a community center and basketball courts, tennis courts and ball field.“Our first concern is that Galloway Park has become a hangout where people are drinking, doing drugs, using foul language and really making the park their place instead of place for kids to play and families to enjoy,” said Corri Bailey, who helped organize the event.

Multiple Troy residences… read more “I don’t ever want a dissatisfied customer,” Money said.To accomplish that tall order, Money depends on a salt-based marinade and his secret spices.“There’s a trick to it, though,” he said with a smile. The Chicken Shack serves chicken fried in strips and on the bone, baked and as salad and it’s “treated’ just the same.“About 75 percent of our business is take-out. Our goal is to offer the best tasting chicken and get it out fast. We haven’t messed with the original fried chicken recipe. We want to continue to honor the folks that came before us. We offer good food at good prices. We could charge more but our customers keep coming back and we’re good with that.”Just up the road in Grady, Red’s Little Schoolhouse Restaurant has the goal of putting the best food possible on the table.“If you eat any better, your grandma cooked it,” is the motto at Red’s Little Schoolhouse and to a one, the customers agree.“I’m not sure my grandma cooked this good,” said Cathy McKinney, a regular at Red’s. “It’s all good, very good.”Red’s is known far and wide for its lemon icebox pie and fried cornbread. But topping it all is Red and Debbie’s fried chicken.And it has been that way since the daddy-daughter duo Red Deese and Debbie Deese opened the restaurant in 1984. They had been cooking at state fairs and making a name for themselves but wanted a place of their own. So when the old Grady schoolhouse property became available, they were sitting on the realtor’s doorsteps.Red’s Little Schoolhouse Restaurant has fried chicken on the buffet and, diners are inclined to break line to get to the fried chicken which is fried juicy tender and in cuts like grandma used to make.“Is this a breast?” newcomers will often ask. “Naw. It’s a pulley bone and a big one. I’ll fight you for it,” someone will reply with a smile.Red’s fried chicken is cut up just like grandma used to do and, just like grandma, Debbie and Red don’t mind sharing their recipe. It’s seasoned with seasoning salt, dipped in buttermilk, floured and fried in a well-seasoned iron skillet.People come from four corners to have Sunday dinner at Red’s Little Schoolhouse Restaurant.“People from Prattville ride by all those restaurants in Montgomery to eat at Reds,” Mac Thomas said. “And I’m one of ’em.”People from all walks of life find their way to Reds and they all give the chicken two thumbs up.Hank Williams, Jr. frequents Reds on the recommendation of his Aunt Loretta Fleming.“She says it’s as good as it gets, and it is as good as it gets,” Williams said.And who could argue with that country boy? “Why, it’s an institution. People come from all around just to eat at the Chicken Shack,” said Andee Lowery. “No drive is too long if it ends at the Chicken Shack.“You can’t live in Luverne and not eat at the Chicken Shack,” said Scott Miller, a 26-year patron. His son, Mason, a 12-year connoisseur, said it’s better than finger-lickin’ good.Visitors to the World’s Friendliest City vow that you can’t visit Luverne and not eat at the Chicken Shack. All roads lead to the Chicken Shack for those who have an overwhelming desire for the chicken that never disappoints.And, it’s the little things that set Chicken Shack fried chicken apart in tenderness, taste and reliability. For Michael Money, who owns the Chicken Shack with his brother, Drew, the heat won’t be so hot that he can’t stay in the kitchen.Money is the chief cook at the Chicken Shack and that’s the way he wants it.“We want satisfied customers and the best way I know how to do that is to be in the kitchen,” he said, as he dumped a basket of golden brown chicken from the fryer to the pan.Money has owned the popular chicken restaurant business for five years. His dad Henry Money ran the restaurant for 13 years before him. The original owner Nick Nichols opened the “shack” in 1968 and its reputation for the “world’s best fried chicken” has held for a half century.
