Flaherty, Paul / Moloney, John / Moore, Gene / Janas, Gene / Shurdut, Jeff – "Cosmic Hallways" – [Feeding Tube Records]
jacksoil 8/14/2013 12-inch, Jazz
Free Improvisation from masters of said genre; I'm always stoked to check out a release by Paul Flaherty because I equate him and his flowing white beard with someone who brings gifts – St. Nick! Oh, and what a present we have here; 3 tracks of improve that get's all skronky weird by falling apart at the seams; it's like a sonix punx' patchwork quilt jacket made of sax x2, drums, guitar and bass with a bunch of other percussives and sonic twists for extra "hanging threads and general extraneous flaps of material"; put the jacket on, douse it with kerosene, light a match, and then run for your fucking life! A beautiful mess-terpiece! Recorded in some ancient schoolhouse native to these East Coast musical pranksters. You and I know ??this is not everyone's cup of tea, but for those that indulge or are bi-curious, this is full on fuckin' great!
Afflicted Man – "I'm Off Me 'Ead" – [Permanent Records]
jacksoil 8/14/2013 12-inch, A Library
As reissues go, sometimes, you've got that feeling of like, shit, no one is doing anything new, so the record companies are just going back and re-issuing good records because it's been long enough and maybe, just maybe, there is a new audience waiting for said re-issue. For KFJC, those re-issue just are not that exciting (in many cases, we've got the fucking original anyhow!). Then, on the other hand, you've got re-issues like the Steve Hall's (originally just known as Afflicted) Afflicted Man's I'm Off Me 'Ead that is definitely old enough and not heard enough that it is like a god send to add to your collection. So, that's the deal; rare, unheard, addict sourced unexpected "mind blowing" psych punk blues from the very early 80's. Imagine the vibe in the recording studio; these guys are jamming out blues based psych riffs but with the added ingredient of a twisted lo-fi diy outsider punk attitude and just plain wonky feedback drenched fucked up sloppiness; oh, and let's also have the vocals sound like they're being run through a not very powerful bullhorn or coming from the back corner of the room or something – the rambling vox, (kinda Brother JT stylee in a way if you want comparisons), are there and are as important as any other instrument. Drop the needle anyplace and enjoy. You gotta know this band had to be the shit in it's little Oxford Street scene at the time, and then just many great things in the past and in the future, it dried up and blew away; this re-issue is what a re-issue should be. Afflicted Man have some other reissues too, that are worth your attention, like the Rock Toilet's re-issue of High Speed & the Afflicted Man Get Stoned Ezy– again, same guy, changing it up enough to keep us all on our toes as well a keeping it "interesting".This is one of those records, that when you hear it and don't know what it is, you're gonna ask, "what is this?"
feedtime – "Today Is Friday" – [S-S Records]
jacksoil 6/7/2013 A Library, CD
It is probably safe to say this was project carefully considered, compiled and wildly desired to be put together by the mighty S-S Records' Scott Soriano (maybe even ripped from the virtual arms of Seattle's SubPop?). A project of all previously unreleased material by this Aussie noise rock outfit, formed in 1979, that ultimately crashed and burned due to the lead singer unable to keep it all together. Personally, as a serious fan of Amphetimine Reptile sounds of the 90's, this thing completely schools all those fucking great bands and releases. There are three covers on here (Richard's and Jagger's) Street Fighting Man. Fear's blown out I Don't Care About You and Flipper's Life. The rest is all feedtime including some ripping sax on nice and possums (the live versions). Overall, it's a miraculously wreck-less (front-page, top-o-the fold headlines screaming "Unbelievable" where there should have been gallons of blood and gore, no survivors at all, after a horrendous jack and cocaine fueled vehicular manslaughter night on the town fiasco) straight up stripped down wreck n' role affair. In other words, the whole thing is as dangerous as a rabies infested grinning possum let loose in a kindergarten (have you seen how many fucking teeth one of them bastards has got?). Thank you SS Records for your labors of love.
WatchOut! – "Flashbacker" – [Permanent Records]
jacksoil 6/7/2013 12-inch, A Library
Very limited (only a few 100 – as a 2013 Record Store Day release by the discriminating Permanent Records) re-issue of a Chilean psych rock band's debut (limited lathe cut and cd from 2011) that mixes elements of kraut rock, indian instrumentation and latin sensibilities all steeped in the various era's 60"s 70's and 80's technology and stylistic influences to create an incredible hybrid sound that is sure to make you salivate for more. A nice variation in terms of track lengths and vibes. Some head off into Pop territories such as the catchy South Sun and others wander off into that crazy hybrid mentioned previously ala the opener, Latinarabi. And then there's Die – the synths sound like Accordions. I'd actually like to hear a Brian Jonestown cover of this one. Wish You Know spirals off into fuzz garage territory (and that's just the A side). The B side heats it up with 3 more gems like the tribute to the Madchester Sounding Space So Near and the meandering krauty-jammer Flashbacker (the title track) clocking in at a whopping 12:45. Finally, Mystic River (9:16) wraps it all up with a bow and a desire to yet again flip the record for another historical psychedelic tryp throughout the minds of these Chilean geniuses. I'm ready for some more of this appropriately titled disc and I'm sure you will be as well.
Ttotals – "Spectrums of Light" – [Twin Lakes Records]
jacksoil 5/23/2013 7-inch, A Library
A duo from Nashville Tennessee that doesn't fit the "Nashville stereo type" at all. In fact, import/export Pete "Sonic Boom" Kember (Spectrum / Spacemen 3) into the mix (he mixed it), and Nashville is turned inside out. Drums and Guitar and washes of feedback all make for a magnificent psych journey. I saw these guys live at the Austin Psychfest in 2013 and the sounds they made were pretty mesmerizing as I crested the banks of the Colorado River (the backdrop for the band), I was expecting a helluva lot more than just two dudes with one of them being on a very stripped down drum kit. Good news, they sound as good, if not better, live!
On one side you've got the slow burner Sometimes You Just Are – and then the intensity level kicks it up about 10 klix more, then, back down and then again back up; a nice ride; Tricks of the Trade is a little meaner sounding and reminds me of a stripped down NYC NoWave act circa the late 80's or early 90's (something not to be messed with to say the least). Last thing, making this quite a find in the KFJC library is that every cover on these limited edition 7″ are all unique (and we defaced it and fucked it all up as is the custom).
Tryp out; hang out.
Lumerians – "Weaning and The Dreaming, The" – [Sanity Muffin]
jacksoil 1/16/2013 A Library, Cassette
Among many descriptors of the air sound at KFJC would be the over-used but apt, "Experimental". As such it is appropriate to know the backstory of this cassette as it is truly experimental. First off, the Lumerians, an East Bay project that continues to gather velocity as the 20-teens progress veer off into some pretty tryppy territory here (not their "usual" structured psychedelic faire so to speak). Instead, someone got the brilliant idea to make a record immediately after spending time in an isolation flotation tank. A 4-track recorder was setup in the lobby of said establishment and the band members would soak for a while and then do their recordings. No edits (and they didn't all record at the same time either – just a bit of tape flipping halfway through the whole process) which in turn causes the A Side and B Sides of the tapes to be mirror images of one another. Anyway, get that through your noggin or don't and just enjoy the completely improvised post soak sounds of the Lumerians. In the end experimentation is the word and it is up to you to go forth and do the same. This limited edition cassette, put out by Oakland's Sanity Muffin, was part of the merch table schwag of their Fall 2012 European jaunt.
Taylor Bow – "Thin Air" – [Youth Attack Records]
jacksoil 12/12/2012 12-inch, A Library
Hardcore noise punk from NYC – this is their first LP (and only 2nd release ever); coming out in 2009, this looks to be a side-project for Dominic Fernow (on Guitar) of Purient and a few others; (noting also NYC scene maker Steve Lowenthal on vox) you've got your basic rock setup, guitar, bass, drums, and tortured/maniacal vocalist; making pissed off music that rails against stupidity in society. Their first release (Hate Fuck), a 7″, was deemed more of a venture into Power Violence territory, but this stabs at more of a classic, weeping rock violence wound ala the Brainbombs (especially the beautiful fucking mess of the final track on side A "White Was The Window". Side B cuts deep into homebase territory with the pounding "Massive City Rotting"and never lets up till the grooves run out. Let's hope these guys come up from air on their other projects to let loose another raw and ragged tidbit of Taylor Bow before we all tear each other apart during our mowing of daily bread.
Twin Stumps – "Twin Stumps" – [Dais]
jacksoil 12/5/2012 12-inch, A Library
This is Twin Stumps' first of, sadly, only two outings before they called it DONE. This is blasting noisecore rock of the finest quality. If I were to compare these guys to various varieties of Salt, they'd clearly be in the Amethyst Bamboo grade (go look it up). If you're not gonna look it up, let's just say it is high fuckin' class hoity toity salt. This is 3 piece out of Ridgewood NY. Dais, bless their hearts, put this out a in a limited edition (as they do) few years back and it immediately disappeared from the shelves and into rabid noisy rock collectors' oily hands. This is #155 out of 300, and I got it off of some greasy dude up in Oregon. If you're familiar with Twin Stumps, do enjoy. If you're not, welcome to the fold as you coax your ears to bleed profusely by dropping the needle on this beauty. Soil
Prurient – "Wrapped In The Flame of Illusion, Masked In The Clay Of Behavior" – [Dais]
jacksoil 2/8/2012 7-inch, A Library
Double 7″ (orange and purple)that shows the rare "unagitated" side of Prurient; Genesis Breyer P-Orridge at the Graphic Controls; inspiration taken from circuitus religious logic and the conspiratorial nature of the deaths of two tabloid superstars Anna Nichole Smith and Michael Jackson; "wispy" at times; haunting; eerie, droney and not, oh, too noizy. Grand,yet short (go for 33 if you'd like to extend the spooky/dripdrug vibe out a bit more). Starting off with the ramblings of what might be two sisters playing with their uncle's tape recorder to the final gothic ending of the sighs of a neither world, this is not what you thought you might be getting into by dropping the needle on these gems; limited enough as well as substantially different than what you might expect from Dominick Fernow to become an instant collectors item. – Jack Soil
Wrapped In The Flame Of Illusion, Masked In The Clay Of Behavior
Lord Foul – "Killing Raping Burning / The Devils Advocate" – [Dais]
Early to mid 90's Kentucky Fried demo cassette releases on this single sided Black Bastard! Amazing etching on the other side that is equal to the one man black metal machine known as Roach. Up until now, these two Lord Foul releases (Killing Raping Burning / The Devils Advocate) never made it to wax, but Dais changed all of that. The limitations of the media (cassette) are all present especially on the KRB portion, but there isn't anyone out there who is gonna claim this to be spindly or weak – it's a demo for fuck's sake and BTW, it's got goat's balls to boot! We've got pure 90's Black Metal Evil here with that 90's era spoken word/movie clips (some ear cutting off Reservoir Dogs action, plus more) spattered throughout (I kinda miss that myself and enjoyed hearing it again amongst these tracks). Praise Dais for being this fucked up and allowing 500 of these to escape from the belly of hell. Great liner/insert with several interviews. 3W – Fast, Mean, Evil. Soil
Cheater Slicks – "Bats In The Dead Trees" – [Lost Treasures of The Underworld]
Number 86 of a limited edition of 500 that is a repressing of a release that "sold out" in about 1 day the first time around; 2009's Cheater Slicks make what some might call a noise record inspired by "garage rock". Undoubtedly cut from the same bolt of cloth as say a Liquorball, Gasenata, or Mainliner. 4 solid studio tracks cut onto vinyl that, at first you think are going to "build" into one another,but instead of building they just ARE, and BEING is something that isn't bad here. A bonus CDR is included that is a live recording at Skylab that is thinner in sound but possibly meaner/unrelenting in tone. The CDR is clearly the same set of songs, and after a few listens I found myself liking both just the same which is fine with me, as I'd rather not choose a favorite; the whole thing is amazing and worth more than just a few listens before it gets lost in the library.
3 Word Review- Batshitcrazy Loudass Motherfuckers!
Puffy Areolas / Purling Hiss [coll] – [Permanent Records]
Record Store Day, May 2011, some amazing records are released, and as the saying goes, "once they're gone, they're gone". A visit to the Permanent Records Store in LA in July of 2011 confirmed this, or so I thought, as the proprietor told me they were gone and that there were no more to be had. It thought for sure the LABEL would have more. This particular record, the one you're holding or listening to via KFJC, is proof that if you're patient, and don't lose hope, you might one day find that thing you were looking for. If it was not for the vastness that IS the SF Amoeba Records store, you might not hold this delicious Psychedelic Garage Rock split. Both bands waste little time in gearing up for their swirling psychedelic psonic assaults. If there is such a thing as a "builder track", it's the Puffy Areolas' "My Hell". The Puffy Trio get's worked up right away and heads off in an venomous Butthole Surfer vein and basically lives there for the full 8 minute jaunt. Purling Hiss rocks it out of the gates as well, but about halfway through, they gears shift in a copacetic direction and change it up in a slowed down manner that begins to channel some crazy ass psych -blues vibe you might here from some old character such as R.L. Burnside. Obviously, I love this shit and I hope you do too. Soil
Klangmutationen – "Weisse Messe" – [Holy Mountain]
First outing (of about 3 so far) dating back to 2007 from these Malaysian caterwaulers. It's noise, but it isn't blowtorch your face off noise; it's chaotic with instruments going in every which direction. Touted as Organic Metal (with Sax even!), this is the real Freedom Rock, and it has never sounded better. Holy Mountain stretched it a bit here, but stretching is a good thing- keeps the cramps away. Side B starts to gel a bit more than Side A; nonetheless, you're about to embark on trip with one of three live slabs of various sizes; find it; fuck it; own it. Soil
Taeter – "Absolute Nothing" – [Trash Ritual]
I guess you could say these are sort of Whitehouse inspired sounds, if not by them, then there's a few others that will come to mind after a quick listen. This is sonically, as is the case,visually, with the liner notes, dicks hanging out noise, and it isn't pretty. On the other hand, just because something isn't pretty doesn't mean it's shitty. This is not shitty. It's great noise with textures and fucked up vocals tricking you into thinking something other that what is being said is said (liner notes are a must for most tracks). And hey, whoever covers a Brainbombs track on their record is A-OK in my filth stained book. Most tracks clock in under 5 minutes which is likely plenty for most, but the last track comes in at about 17:25 (there's a false ending) minutes of sonic and mental manipulations. Brainbombs, Whitehouse, noise, maybe a little musique concrete, you gettin' the picture? Recorded in 2008, released in 2010. Limited to 300.
Puffy Areolas – "In The Army 1981" – [Siltbreeze]
Fuck, I guess if your areolas were always puffy, that shit might hurt, and you might play rock and roll like these guys if this were the case just to ease the pain or at least communicate your pain to anyone who might listen regarding your particular ailment. This three piece is letting it all hang out, but they're also all tightly strapped in at the same time. It's a garage rock freak out in all senses of the word (echo'd out vox, frenetic instrumentation, seemingly different trajectories yet all arriving in the same burnt out Bus Station at the same time). You should play this because people will dig it, and those that don't should just go aggressively rub their tits with 60 grit sand paper for 3 minutes every day for a week straight and then see how they like Puffy Areolas.
TW … Rock sans abandon
Decoy & Joe McPhee – "Oto" – [Bo'weavil Recordings]
jacksoil 11/10/2010 A Library, CD
Extremely Spirited Live recording of an evening at the famous Cafe Oto in North London. Decoy play there often, but on this particular night, they were joined by Saxophonist, Joe McPhee. This performance must have been a sight and sound to see. Out of the gates, these guys turn up the heat and never really stop cooking throughout the entire set massive set. Track 1 is just under 40 min. Track 2 clocks in at about 30 min, and then the 3rd track is a measly 8 min. Again, Massive, in a word. Amazing in another. Improv at its finest. Dig the Hammond B3 channeling Sun Ra throughout! Everyone is top shelf here. Don't sleep on this!

A terrible thought struck me while I was reading the reviews of Stieg Larsson's crime novels.
They are filming the novels right now, with swedish actors. I had a look at the cast and it seems like a good cast. It'll make an interesting series of films I am sure. People who loved the books will be upset because things won't turn out exactly as they had pictured it, but that is to be expected.
The terrible thought that occurred to me was that they will do a remake of the films in the US. And as usual, they'll strip the movies of all the character and flavor of the story. The books have a very swedish tone to them. They take place in Sweden and are about swedish people. I've seen Hollywood remakes of scandinavian films. They all come out unbearably mediocre and bland. Hollywood doesn't do scandinavian well.
They'll probably cast some neurotic-yet-bubblegum-pretty Helena Bonham Carter-lookalike as Salander, and some slippery Hollywood clown with a tan and a sixpack as Blomquist. Then dumb the story down to the point where it is just like any other cheap action movie.


I love the changing seasons! There is something wonderful about moving from hot to cold and back again. The colors of the world change along with the temperature and the foods we eat change with them.
Spring puts me in the mood for colors and lighter food. It also makes me feel like baking fruit tarts and pastries. Maybe it's an Easter thing, I don't know!
This Spring I have been working on making my own puff pastry. Or actually, Rough Puff Pastry which is one step below traditional puff pastry in labor. Don't worry, I'm not throwing that at you yet. I need to make it a few more times and experience the happy dance of "It worked!!!!" until it becomes "of course it worked" before I do. But I can share with you some of the dishes I am making using the pastry. You can make them easily with store bought puff pastry.
Yes, I was excited when my first try at puff pastry come out looking like this!
On the day I made this Smoked Salmon and Pickled Radish Tart it was a warm and sunny morning which I spent in the garden planting early radishes and peas. The dish was inspired by a Food and Network Magazine article about savory tarts.
Spring peas and radishes are and easy and rewarding way to start your growing season!
Quick pickling vegetables is a bit of a trend right now and for good reason. It's kind of the ceviche of the plant world. The pickling brine softens the vegetables and imparts flavor in much the same way that cooking them does but with a brightness and tang. And best of all, you can pickle just what you need, a little at a time.
It starts with a brine: a mixture of vinegar, water, salt and sugar. The flavorings are up to you. You can add red pepper flakes, herbs, spices, whatever works for your recipe. Initially I was thinking about using dill which is traditional with smoked salmon but then I read about radishes and tarragon as a pairing and I thought, "why not?". Put this all together in a pan and bring it to a boil, stirring initially until the sugar and salt has dissolved.
Using a food processor, mandolin, or sharp knife, cut the radishes into thin slices.
Put them in a bowl with some fresh tarragon sprigs and pour the hot brine over them.
Let it cool and then keep the radishes in the refrigerator until you are ready to use them. They are ready right away or will keep for up to a month in the fridge.
Roll the puff pastry out into a square (or rectangle).
Then brush the four edges with an egg wash and fold them in about one inch to make a frame. Prick the bottom all over with a fork and brush the whole thing once more with the egg.
You can do this free-form as I did here or carefully measure your edges to make them all the same.
Even though you judiciously pricked the center with a fork it may still puff up during the cooking. If this happens, slice the side open with a sharp knife and use the bottom of a glass or measuring cup to push it back down after you take it out of the oven. Set that aside to cool.
Mix together crème fraiche and goat cheese, adding a little milk or cream if needed to make it spreadable. Add salt if you think it is too bland.
Spread the cheese evenly over the inside of the tart and top with pieces of smoked salmon which you have ripped apart to give it an edgy look. Top with the radishes and sprinkle with parsley.
Seriously, could that be easier?
Top and tail the radishes (slice off the top and bottom) and slice them thinly, using a sharp knife or mandolin. Place them in a bowl along with the tarragon sprigs.
Bring the vinegar, water, sugar and salt to a boil in a small pan, stirring until the salt and sugar has dissolved.
Pour the vinegar mixture over the radishes and let cool to room temperature. Refrigerate until needed.
Preheat oven to 400 degree and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Roll out the puff pastry into a 12" square or rectangle on a lightly floured board and place on the prepared sheet.
Whisk the egg together with the cream or milk and brush the edges of the pastry in 1" border. Fold the edges in ½" to form a pastry frame.
Pierce the center of the pastry all over with the tines of a fork then brush the whole thing with egg wash.
Place in the center of the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until well browned and crisp.
Remove from the oven. If the center has risen slice the interior edge with a knife and flatten with the bottom of a cup or glass. Let cool on a rack.
Stir together the goat cheese and crème fraiche (or sour cream). Add a little cream if needed to make it easy to spread.
Spread the cheese mixture over the center of the tart.
Tear the smoked salmon into small pieces. Layer the salmon over the cheese and top with pickled radishes. Sprinkle with parsley.

The population of women in incarceration in the United States has increased over 800% in the last thirty years, yet the prison system has neglected to develop policies to address women's unique health concerns (WPA, 2009; Braithwaith, 2010). One example is the routine separation of incarcerated mothers from their newborn infants hours after childbirth. While the long-term detrimental effects on infant attachment and birth outcomes are well established, less research addresses the psychosocial impacts of maternal-infant separation on incarcerated women (Wismont, 2000; Chambers, 2009). All incarcerated women are at risk for inadequate prenatal care and complications in childbirth due to the typically non-nurturing environment they endure in the prison system throughout their pregnancy (Ferszt & Erikson-Owens, 2008). However, incarcerated pregnant women also must anticipate the eventual forced separation from their infant after birth and cope with returning to prison without their newborn (WPA, 2009). This results in significant emotional stress for these new mothers in addition to substantially affecting their capability as caregivers after release when they are finally reunited with their infants. While the existing research views alternatives to maternal-infant separation as the gold standard, many incarcerated women who are able to co-reside with their newborns still exhibit difficulties coping with motherhood both during and following their release (WPA, 2009; Goshin & Byrne, 2009). It is imperative to address the needs of these new mothers while they are incarcerated as well as throughout their transition to life beyond the prison system. A greater emphasis must be placed on empowering these women with the tools and education to be knowledgeable and competent caregivers, as well as secure and employable individuals. These factors must be considered in order to provide incarcerated mothers with the best possible chance to reintegrate into civil society. This research paper reviews the existing literature concerning the complex maternal responses of incarcerated women to separation from their newborns, as well as the effects of alternative policies such as the promotion of prison nurseries and community-based co-residencies for incarcerated mothers and their infants. Further research should be pursued in assessing the outcomes for mother-infant dyads following co-residence as well as their reentry into society after release from the prison system (Byrne et al, 2010). Future policy should focus on improving support for maternal-infant bonding within the correctional system, as well as and fostering a more nurturing and humane experience for incarcerated women throughout their pregnancy and the birth process.

NIHR Bristol BRC to benefit from internship programme to tackle underrepresentation of Black people in science
The National Institute for Health Research Bristol Biomedical Research Centre (NIHR Bristol BRC), a partnership between the University of Bristol and University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Foundation Trust (UHBW), will host intern Angel Obierozie this summer as part of the Health Data Research UK (HDR UK) programme to tackle the underrepresentation of Black people in science.
The Black community is heavily underrepresented in the science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) community, with only 65 Black and 310 mixed and other individuals making up the total of 10,560 science professors in the UK – as highlighted in The Guardian.
HDR UK and its partners, including NIHR Bristol BRC, have recruited 54 interns, with over 30 being women, to join this year's Black internship programme starting in the summer of 2021. The programme, in partnership with the 10,000 Black Interns initiative and the UK Health Data Research Alliance (HDR Alliance), will provide paid work experience to future Black data scientists as they work at 25 of HDR UK's partner organisations.
Angel Obierozie said:
"This summer I will be working with Bristol Biomedical Research Centre as an intern. During this internship I will be working on a project which aims to improve antimicrobial prescribing decisions by analysing linked data.
"This internship will provide me with the necessary career foundation and networking opportunities to fulfil my dream of becoming a health care data scientist in the future. I am interested to see and study the way in which health data resources and technology enhance the healthcare industry as well as optimise the outcome of the individual patient."
Dr Katy Turner, Reader in Infectious Disease Epidemiology, University of Bristol, said:
"We are really excited to support the HDR UK Black internships scheme and look forward to working with our intern Angel in the summer. She will be joining our dynamic, multidisciplinary team and working with our colleagues across the health system on a real-world problem to inform clinical practice and policy around antimicrobial resistance."
Caroline Cake, CEO at HDR UK, said:
"We are really looking forward to welcoming the 54 interns this summer to the exciting field of health data science. It is wonderful that so many opportunities have been created by organisations from the UK Health Data Research Alliance. I hope that for many of these interns, this will be the start of a long and successful career in health data science. "
Angel's placement is part of the University of Bristol-led HDR UK Better Care South-West Partnership.

Q: Finding Wanderlust dependecy Emacs packages I'm trying to install Wanderlust, but it needs other Emacs libraries.  Does anyone know where to find SEMI, APEL, and FLIM?  The manual says it should be on ftp://ftp.m17n.org/pub/mule/, but my DNS can't find ftp.m17n.org.

A: The site says:

ftp.m17n.org is closed now. If you are
  looking for something that was there,

*

*It may be found at http://unit.aist.go.jp/itri/itri-gist/ftp.m17n.org.

ftp.jpl.org carries APEL, and you can grab FLIM and SEMI from kanji.zinbun.kyoto-u.ac.jp.

A: Just in case anyone else finds this question now....
The canonical place to find Wanderlust and all its dependencies is MELPA (https://melpa.org/)
Wanderlust development is now hosted on Github:

An article recently published by The UK Daily Mail describes the controversy surrounding Author David Freeman, whose argues that fast food industries should focus on expanding or changing their menus to include healthy options instead of completely banning fast foods. Freeman argues that the majority of the population will not be content to eat unprocessed "real" foods such as fresh fruits and vegetables.
Freedman believes that despite their efforts, the media is ignoring fast food chains when it comes to their attempts to create healthier fast food menu options. Take McDonalds, for example. They have fresh yogurt, egg white mcmuffins and oatmeal available for people to purchase, but because they still contain processed ingredients the media has criticized their efforts. Freeman also explains that many "clean" and "real" foods have many more calories, carbohydrates, and fat than ingredients such as the Egg White Delight McMuffin. According to Freeman, Trader Joe's "Inner Peas" (a product that contains fried peas that have been smothered in sunflower oil) have six times the amount of fat as something relatively simple at a fast food chain.

Always choose to make your perspective the most positive that you can imagine. When you ask for what you need, don't assume that you are going to get a "no." Take that risk to ask for whatever you need and want. As we discussed last month, we know that there will be a lot of "so called " rejection along the way – but all you have to do is look at that "no" as something that brings you one step closer to the "yes" answer you seek.
2. Notice where others' attention and conversations tend to gravitate. Where does their focus predominantly lie? Are they focused on positive aspects? Focusing mostly in the past can hold you back from achieving your goals and your dreams – unless you are focused on something that gave you great pleasure and has you feeling good in the present moment.
If you notice that your (or another's focus) is on the negative, or geared to the past or future – stop the conversation right there, and intentionally change the conversation. For example, rather than having a meeting to discuss how badly things are going in the economy and choosing to discuss whether or not we are going to have to raise our office fees, we can consciously choose to stop and deliberately change the focus to how we want things to be right now, what values and mission drives our business, and how we can become even better at what we do. We can deliberately and intentionally focus on what went right for our practice in the past, what is going right currently with the approaches we are taking, and ask ourselves what will make it better moving forward.
Almost everything in life can be reframed! Do you think that the cup is half empty or half full? Is this a crises or is this an opportunity for growth? Are you fearful or are you simply excited? At one point or another, everybody in the self-development field has addressed the concept of reframing, or changing the frame of reference of a situation. This month we are going to talk about reframing the story that you tell others about your life, so that it is presented in the most positive perspective possible. Why is this important?
The key point to understand is that after reframing an event, a new meaning is created. When that meaning is activated or validated by a person (when he or she says, "yes, that is true") it becomes a belief. As you have heard all your life, whatever you believe becomes your reality.
Reframing is the strategy to change the meaning of something (an event, experience, news, or situation) by creating another frame (reference point) to it. Basically, reframing creates a new and different interpretation that reaches a different conclusion. It allows you to feel and behave in a different way. It is a very powerful tool for mastery if one is committed to a successful and enjoyable life.
A basic example of reframing can be someone who attempted to do something and she did not get the desired outcome she wanted. Under this scenario, the outcome was a failure. Well, an empowerment coach could help that person to reframe the meaning of that event, and instead of labeling it a "failure, " can decide to label it as "one more way you have learned how not to do something", or "getting one step closer to your goal." Does that make sense?
· Connect the dots in your life and reframe your story as a powerful, positive journey.
· Choose to be positive; remember, rejection is merely a concept that exists only in your head. When you experience rejection, you are no worse off physically than you were before.
· Persistence allows you to pursue your goals. In the face of obstacles, and feedback, you can adjust your course and reach your ultimate goal! Persistency equates success. Persistence is the difference between mediocrity and excellence.
· Live in the magical moment of "NOW".
Good luck on your journey, and the joy the empowering, exciting process of effective communication!

And we would love for you to come and share your story with others who may be seeking information on weight loss surgery or are simply wondering "what life is like" afterward.
A recent study conducted at Harvard Medical School sought to find out why some people can't lose weight, despite how hard they try.
Twelve overweight but otherwise healthy men were given two milkshakes, with almost the same amount of calories and similar tastes. However, one shake was high-glycemic and the other low-glycemic. High-glycemic foods are identified through the High Glycemic Index and contain a large quantity of starches and sugars, most of which are processed.
Results from the study indicated that the participants who consumed the high-glycemic shakes had a stronger appetite than the participants who consumed the low-glycemic shakes.
The research team also performed individual MRI testing on each participant and found that there was a strong activation in a part of the brain named the nucleus accumbens that regulates eating, craving, reward and pleasure.
Considering that many people are developing serious medical issues from obesity and related diseases, this study makes sense. Research has suggested that processed and refined foods are partly responsible for the alarming growth rate of obesity in the US.
Although more research is needed, this study makes an important claim that we need to take into account. More focus needs to be placed upon the theory of food addiction in relation to the brain. If sufficient evidence is found, additional forms of treatment may be discovered to help prevent and treat weight gain.
You can read here about the findings.
Last week we had a great turnout for our "shake & chat" where we discussed the importance of relationships and how the "rules" have changed over the years. One of our guests commented that the LA area is a difficult place to meet men who are interested in settling down. Interestingly enough,another woman expressed that she feels that marriage can sometimes be boring and that it really isn't all that it's cracked up to be. It was a real eye-opener!
It was interesting to listen to everyone's different perspectives and we got a lot of positive feedback from the group. Some of the topics that we are going to discuss in the next few weeks are anti-aging topics including weight loss, toning, beauty detox juice cleanses.
Join us next Tuesday when we discuss the psychology of eating and how our relationships can often influence our eating behaviors.
Make sure to reserve your seat & RSVP with you shake flavor!
Imagine this scenario: A woman gets on a plane with her two small children, on her way to visit family across the country. Suddenly, the flight attendant announces that the plane is experiencing extreme turbulence and instructs all passengers to put on their oxygen masks. The woman does not place the oxygen mask on either of her children. She places the mask on to her mouth and inhales deeply several times. She then places the oxygen mask on one of her children and tells him to take a deep breath. She then switches the oxygen mask onto her other child, instructing her to do the same. Together the three of them continue to take turns breathing in the oxygen. The mother wasn't being selfish- she had to put the mask on herself before her children so that she would be alive and able to help them receive enough oxygen. She was forced to put herself before them.
Women experience so much stress today and the need for women to practice self-care has never been more urgent. Yet many of the women whom I have worked with struggle with the concept of self- care. They feel guilty. They feel selfish for putting their needs before anyone or anything else. I use what I like to call the "airplane analogy" to explain to my clients that in order to be the best possible YOU, you absolutely have to consider self-care top priority.
I am certainly no stranger to stress. My two beautiful twins are the light of my life. They came to me eight years ago and were diagnosed with Autism shortly after. In addition, my husband and I also own several small businesses specializing in weight loss and wellness, where my husband is a weight loss surgeon and is on call at all times for his patients, which many times requires him to leave unexpectedly. It's a lot to handle, and sometimes I don't feel like I can do it. Self-care is what gets me through the rough days and unexpected challenges that come along with a marriage, motherhood, and running a business. If I didn't have my "me time" I wouldn't be able to function.
1. Prayer & Meditation. Every day at the same time I set aside a half hour for myself to reflect and get in tune with myself. I do this first thing in the morning- before the kids wake up, before I start responding to e-mails and phone calls and before I get dressed for the day.
2. Schedule and separate time alone with your significant other. Some people are skeptical of this, but I have found that it is essential for me to schedule AND separate work from pleasure. Because my husband and I regularly attend business mixers, I make sure that we have at least one night per week where he and I have a private dinner together- no business calls, no technology, no kids. Unless it's an emergency, it can wait.
3. Practice good nutrition, not depravation. Good nutrition is so important, but I don't eat healthy 100% of the time. Being trained as a specialist in psychology of eating often gives people the impression that I practice a "strict diet" 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, when in reality, I make sure to get plenty of fresh foods and eat mindfully. I will indulge once in awhile if I really feel like I have to have that scoop of ice cream.
4. Make a conscious effort to do at least one activity a day that makes you happy. Even if it's just something small, like writing someone you love a handwritten note, or walking your dog. The little things in life can make a big impact.
5. Reach out to friends and family for support. I cannot imagine if I did not have my friends and family to reach out to. All of us need a little help sometimes and turning to your family and friends during times of need is one of the best uses of self-care that one can practice.
It seemed illogical. How could I have such discipline in some areas of my life yet not be able to win the battle over my ever increasing bulge. That battle had evolved into a complete war unraveling my emotion, confidence, and my hope of ever being healthy. The decision to pursue gastric bypass with Dr. Waldrep was over a decade ago. Like it was this morning, I remember the ping of pulsating noises that echoed through the weighting room. My hearts cry was for a hope in tomorrow that was being crushed under my nearly 330lbs frame.
At home I had a wife that never pressured or pushed me to lose weight. Instead she offered constant encouragement. My dream was to take a short walk with her; our hands clasped and I was able to walk a mile without having to stop and gasp for life's breath.
She reminded me of how much our kids loved their daddy. My two-year-old daughter wanted daddy to have enough energy to play with her. For my newborn son, someday, I wanted to be able run with him in the park or even coach his Little League.
losing weight, I spoke complete honesty. I said, "I have an incredible doctor who has helped me make drastic changes to my life. I have nutritionist and I am committed to daily exercise." All truths, yet to this day, I have only spoken publicly about my weight on a couple occasions.
Now a decade removed, I had no idea how great I would feel and how healthy I would become. I never dreamed that Dr. Waldrep would not only give me life through Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass, but through an on-going friendship, he and Lisa would speak encouragement and hope to my on-going pursuit of becoming the best version of me.
Today, I am physically healthy and emotionally whole. Those long walks with my wife became addicting. After finishing a walk with her, I would head back and jog for a few minutes. Those minutes turned to miles and miles turned into hours. In 2005, I completed the Big Sur International Marathon of 26.2 miles. I stood at the finish line and I held up my left hand with three fingers pointed to the sky. The hand signal I raised wasn't for the number three. The symbolic "w" wasn't for "weight loss" or that I had just "won." The "W' was to acknowledge that I had not forgotten who had gotten me to the finish line of one of life's greatest accomplishments. The "W' was for Waldrep.
I still take it one day and one bite at a time. Exercise is crucial and grazing is deadly. Identifying the root-cause of my eating disorder has helped me identify the addictive bent within me. I now find myself invigorated with the possibilities ahead of me.
For you, for me, for us, the best has yet to come.
Heat oven to 350. Cut a slit in a 4 ounce boneless, skinless chicken breast. In a bowl, combine ¼ cup chopped broccoli, 3 tbsp shredded cheddar, 1 tbsp salsa; stuff inside chicken.
Slice a small sweet potato into 1/4-inch-thick fries. On a baking sheet coated with cooking spray, place fries, & 1 cup halved brussel sprouts or veggie of choice. Spray veggies with cooking spray; sprinkle with ¼ tsp sea salt, ¼ tsp garlic powder, & black pepper.
Bake 15 minutes; flip veggies. Add the chicken to the sheet; bake until internal temperature reaches 165, about 20 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired.
Well they say that the best is worth waiting for and I got the best with all of you! I cannot thank you enough for helping me to believe in myself again.


Soccer is an all consuming recreation. It is at the heart of several educational institutions https://tr.canlibahisegir.net/ and brings gamers, coaches and followers collectively for the same explanation. They all want a profitable season. If you are hunting for approaches to increase your sport abilities, then carry on looking through and place these moves into motion.
Don't forget that all objectives are achievable if you attempt tough adequate. You want to have a good mindset as you apply and perform the game. You CAN be an incredible football participant! If you preserve this in mind, you will find you have much more generate and passion for the game as you engage in.
You need to apply all of the positions so that you can very easily slip into one if the need occurs. Even if you usually play defense, practice throwing the ball and you may truly get to perform as quarterback someday. If you are nicely rounded, the coach will appreciate your dedication.
A good soccer tip is to constantly remain minimal if you're on the offensive or defensive line. Being low aids you continue to be grounded and provides you a greater placement to block or rush the other participant. It also tends to make it significantly harder for you to get knocked on to your again.
When your kid plays football, make sure he wears the appropriate helmet to keep away from injuries. The helmet should have an outer shell manufactured of hard plastic and the padding should be thick. It need to also have a face mask that's rigid and a chin strap made up of a protecting chin cup. The chin strap ought to often be comfortable and fastened when enjoying.
Working backs are users of the offense. For a managing perform, the quarterback might pass the ball to a working back again who will operate the ball as considerably as he can. When the ball is likely in the air, the working back might aid protect the quarterback from tacklers or he might try out to get open up to catch a pass.
One of the most crucial items a receiver should discover is how to line up properly. If you do not line up correctly, it can end result in an unlawful formation phone. 7 gamers must be lined up with the soccer prior to the snap for a authorized possession to just take spot.
Each group wants to score touchdowns. The main purpose for offenses is to rating touchdowns. A player has to run the ball through the other team's defense or capture a move after they cross into the stop zone. A landing is achieved if the ball is carried over the purpose line. Every single touchdown is really worth six factors.
Just before you engage in, exercise, or work out, you must usually consider to do a entire heat up. If you are hurt, you can be sidelined for a although. Maintain a strong body by performing exercises so as to build important enjoying muscle tissue.

Circular Letter pd 4/2003 27 June, 2003 Development Contributions
Level of Contributions
Period of scheme
Appealing Development Contributions
4. Enforcing Development Contribution Conditions
Circular Letter PD 4/2003 27 June, 2003
A chara,
I wish to refer to Sections 48 and 49 of the Planning & Development Act, 2000, which were commenced on 11th March 2002. These sections significantly revise the development contribution system in order to increase its flexibility and the range of infrastructure that can be funded by this mechanism.
The Act provides for three types of development contributions that can be attached as conditions to planning permissions granted under Section 34 of the 2000 Act –
general development contributions,
special development contributions, and
supplementary development contributions.
Both general and supplementary contributions are based on a scheme adopted by the members of the authority.
General Development Contribution Schemes
Under Section 48, planning authorities must draw up a development contribution scheme in respect of public infrastructure and facilities provided by, or on behalf of the local authority that benefit development in the area.
A scheme must be made under this section by 10th March 2004 (Until then the provisions of the Local Government (Planning & Development) Act, 1963 will continue to apply). Once adopted all planning permissions granted subsequently will be subject to the conditions of the new scheme, regardless of when the permission had been applied for. If they have not already done so, all planning authorities must now commence preparations for adoption of a scheme.
If the planning authority wishes, different schemes can be made in respect of different parts of the area of the planning authority. This may be appropriate for example for the area of a local area plan.
A consultation process for the adoption of a development contribution scheme is provided for in section 48 (4)-(9) the Act. It would be appreciated if planning authorities could consult with the Department at an early stage in the drafting process, in addition to sending the draft scheme to the Minister for observations as required under these sections. The planning authority should also consider an early consultation with any other relevant interest groups on whom the development contribution scheme may impact.
Public infrastructure and facilities to be included
Under a general development contribution scheme planning authorities do not need to show a direct connection between the development contribution paid and works done which facilitate that development. However, it will be important for the planning authority to satisfy itself that the basis for determining the contribution levels can be adequately justified and supported.
The types of public infrastructure and facilities that can be funded by this mechanism are:
the acquisition of land,
the provision of open spaces, recreational and community facilities and amenities and landscaping works,
the provision of roads, car parks, car parking places, sewers, waste water
and water treatment facilities, drains and watermains,
the provision of bus corridors and lanes, bus interchanges facilities
(car parks for those facilities), infrastructure to facilitate public transport, cycle and pedestrian facilities, and traffic calming measures,
the refurbishment, upgrading, enlargement or replacement of roads, car
parks, car parking places, sewers, waste water and water facilities, drains or water mains, and
(f) any matters ancillary to paragraphs (a) to (e).
Planning authorities should have regard to suitable sources for determining the infrastructure and facilities for which contributions will be levied, in particular the development plan and any specific strategies under the plan. Other possible sources are local area plans, the annual report of programme of capital projects, the County Development Board Strategy, village and urban renewal projects, the Annual Roads Programme, etc. In the interests of transparency authorities should indicate in the scheme the public infrastructure or facilities or the general classes of same, for which contributions are payable. Planning authorities can include contributions towards the cost of infrastructure and facilities which have already been recently provided and which continue to benefit new development in the authority's area.
The planning authority may require the payment of contributions towards this infrastructure and facilities even where other sources of funding are available, for example Department grant aid. However authorities should bear in mind that development contributions are not intended to cover the full annual capital cost of all infrastructure within the authority's area and should not be set at an excessively high level (See Level of Contribution below). Planning authorities should also determine the proportion of the capacity of the infrastructure and facilities provided that will benefit existing development and reduce the estimate of contributions to be paid accordingly.
In relation to water and wastewater infrastructure, local authorities should exclude costs recoverable from developers in accordance with the Government water-pricing framework1 [See Circular L 16/02].
Development contributions can only be levied as capital funding for public infrastructure and facilities and as such cannot be used to pay current costs. For example, refurbishment, upgrading, enlargement or replacement referred to in (e) above should all involve adding value to a network, rather than simply the maintenance of a network that already exists. Any money accruing to the local authority under this section must be accounted for separately in the Capital account. In addition, the annual report produced by the local authority should indicate the monies paid and owed to it under this section and how this money was spent.
The purpose of introducing the development contribution scheme is to introduce transparency into the way in which development contributions are levied and applied. Planning authorities must ensure that, when a prospective developer examines a scheme, he or she will be able to clearly see the level of contribution they are expected to pay, as well as the basis for levying the contribution. Therefore a development contribution scheme must state clearly the level of contributions to be payable under the scheme, including any different levels of contributions in respect of different classes or descriptions of developments.
A scheme can allow for a reduced contribution or no contribution in certain circumstances. For example a local authority may decide to provide that a lower (or no) contribution will be payable on permissions for particular types of community infrastructure, shops, etc, in areas in need of regeneration, in brownfield areas or for charitable developments. However, where it is proposed to allow for reduced or no contributions, the basis on which it will be applied should be clearly set out in the scheme.
In accordance with accepted practice, development contributions should not be charged in respect of social housing units, including those which are provided in accordance with an agreement made under Part V of the Act (as amended under the Planning & Development (Amendment) Act, 2002) or which are provided by a voluntary or co-operative housing body, whether or not under Part V.
While it is expected that the planning authority should ensure that developers make an appropriate contribution towards the costs of public infrastructure and facilities, the local authority should take care to avoid development contributions that are excessively high. Although this may maximise funding for projects, it can also lead to negative social and economic impacts, e.g. excessive development contributions could push up housing costs and therefore decrease developer interest or affect the affordability of houses. In addition, authorities should be mindful of the policies adopted by other local authorities in their immediate area when devising and implementing development contribution schemes as major divergence in the level of contributions may be difficult to defend.
Where contributions are index-linked, the inflator used should be clearly stated in the scheme, and planning authorities should publish the revised contributions as soon as possible after the relevant adjustments are made.
The Act does not specify the lifetime of a development contribution scheme. The scheme should however be adopted for a specific period. When deciding on the lifetime of the scheme, the planning authority should consider the period within which the provision of capital projects may be reasonably projected. For example a planning authority which determines the projects to be included in the contribution scheme on the basis of the development plan may decide to relate the lifetime of the scheme to that of the plan. Although not provided for in the Act, it would be advisable to review the scheme at 2 to 3 year intervals at least, where the scheme is adopted for a longer period.
Where reviewing a scheme, where a scheme expires, or where a development contribution scheme does not reflect a revised programme of capital projects or the objectives of a new or revised development plan, the scheme should be revised and adopted in accordance with the procedural requirements set out in section 48.
A developer can only appeal a general development contribution on the basis that the terms of the scheme were not properly applied. In order to minimise this type of appeal the planning authority should ensure that the terms of scheme are clearly stated and that planners and administrative staff implement the scheme in a way that is consistent and equitable.
Special Development Contributions
A special development contribution may be imposed under section 48 where exceptional costs not covered by the general contribution scheme are incurred by a local authority in the provision of a specific public infrastructure or facility. The particular works should be specified in the condition. Only developments that will benefit from the public infrastructure or facility in question should be liable to pay the levy.
If the works in question are not commenced within 5 years, or completed within 7 years of the receipt of payment, or where the authority decides not to proceed with the proposed works or part of works, the applicant should be refunded the special contribution levy. This refund should be in proportion to the work not carried out and include any interest accrued over the period while held by the local authority.
Unlike contributions levied under a general scheme, these contributions may be appealed. Where an appeal is made concerning the development contribution and no other aspect of the permission is appealed, the Board is required to consider only the matter of the development contribution. As soon as the period for the taking of an appeal has expired, the authority must grant permission, provided that the applicant has provided security to the authority for the full amount of the contribution pending the Board's decision.
Supplementary Development Contributions Scheme
Section 49 of the Act provides for the drawing up of a supplementary development contribution scheme in order to facilitate a particular public infrastructure service or project which is provided by a local authority or a private developer on behalf of and pursuant to an agreement with a local authority (e.g. through Public Private Partnership), and which will directly benefit the development on which the levy is imposed.
Supplementary development contribution schemes may be used for rail, light rail or other public transport infrastructure, particular new roads or particular water or waste water infrastructure. However they should only be used where the project will bring a direct benefit to the developments which it serves. In the case of a rail or light rail project, for example, provision of the infrastructure will facilitate increased residential densities surrounding the infrastructure.
In general the same rules of procedure apply to the adoption of a supplementary development contribution scheme, as to the adoption of a general contribution scheme. However, the scheme must in addition specify the area or areas within the functional areas of the planning authority where the scheme will apply and the particular public infrastructure project or service for which the scheme is being applied.
In the area for which the scheme is adopted, these contributions will be payable in addition to those payable under section 48. Developers should not be required to make two payments in respect of the same infrastructure, and therefore a public infrastructure project should not be included in both a general and supplementary contribution scheme.
Where the project is to be provided by way of a PPP, the PPP agreement can specify the way in which these contributions will be applied to pay for the infrastructure in question.
Where developers fail to pay development contributions in accordance with the conditions of their permission, the burden of funding public infrastructure and facilities falls more heavily on those who do comply. In the interests of ensuring a fair development contribution system, authorities should put in place mechanisms to ensure that contributions are paid as required. Authorities should also consider using the enforcement provisions in Part VIII of the Act to ensure payment of contributions.

1 Water services pricing policy provides for the recovery of the marginal capital costs of water services: from the general non-domestic customer on the basis of a consolidated, county or city wide, metered charge and the water in/water out principle; through individual contracts with significant, generally larger, customers; and through development contributions (of particular relevance to residential development). Marginal capital cost is the additional cost of water treatment and distribution and waste water treatment and collection over and above the cost of servicing the domestic sector.

Greece does not grant citizenship for investments: ministry
Greece does not grant citizenship for investments, the Greek Interior Ministry said on Wednesday in a statement, responding to EU Justice Commissioner Vera Jourova's claims that "we do not want Trojan horses in the (European) Union".
In an interview with a German newspaper, Jourova is said to have expressed concern that security risks may arise from the golden visa programs run by EU member states, since holders of "so-called golden passports" have instant access to the Schengen Area.
She said that a common regulatory framework will be on the agenda of the EU this autumn.
"Greece does not belong to the EU member states which grant citizenship for investments, purchase of real estate or other business activities," the Greek ministry clarified on Wednesday in an e-mailed statement.
"The only change made in 2017 concerns the ability of people who have residency permits to apply for citizenship after seven years of stay in the country. This applies to all categories of holders of residency permits," the statement read.
"The prerequisites are the same for all applicants (good knowledge of the Greek language etc). Residency permits do not translate to granting of travel documents (passports)," the statement concluded.
Currently various golden visa schemes are in force across Europe in member states of the EU's visa-free travel zone, such as Greece, but also countries not included in the Schengen.
Under the Greek program launched in 2013, Greece grants residence permits to third country citizens who buy property assets worth more than 250,000 euros (290,000 U.S. dollars) in Greece, as well their family members.
According to the latest official data from the ministry, a total of 2,639 visas have been offered to third country citizens so far.

Tisco builds dumping ground for hazardous waste in Thai Nguyen
Nine days after VietNamNet published an article about the existence of an outdoor furnace dust mountain at Tisco, the waste owner is now hurrying to build a dumping ground.
Tran Thu Huong, deputy director of the Thai Nguyen provincial Environment Protection Sub-department, and head of the inspection delegation, on March 26 afternoon told VietNamNet that inspectors are taking samples of furnace dust and monitoring the area in accordance with current regulations.
"The process of examination and sample taking was implemented without a notice in advance. The conclusion is expected to be released next week," she said.
VietNamNet found on March 26 that the waste owner was hurrying to build a furnace dust storing facility as per the approved plan. About 20 workers and machines were working to build a wall surrounding the dumping ground (3 meters tall) and a concrete foundation (0.5 meters thick).
The dumping ground will be able to contain 10,000 tons of furnace dust.
Tisco's Ha Tuan Hung said that following VietNamNet's article the company's leaders sped up the building of the furnace dust storing facility.
In fact, a decision on building the facility was released in December 2020 but for many reasons, implementation was delayed.
According to Hung, the company is determined to complete it in two days, when furnace dust will be carried to the new place.
The company has also signed a contract with Viet Bac Color Metal on dust collection and treatment.
On March 24, the General Directorate of Environment replied to VietNamNet's reporting about the mountain of waste.
Deputy General Director Hoang Van Thuc said soon after the article was published, the directorate on March 19 sent an urgent dispatch to the Thai Nguyen Department of Natural Resources and the Environment requesting to inspect and clarify the case.
The department then set up a team to carry out an extraordinary inspection on the observation of the laws on environmental protection at Tisco under Decision No 300.
The representative of the general directorate affirmed that under the current laws, owners of waste that cannot be recycled must store waste in accordance with regulations and transfer it to licensed units for treatment.
The images provided by VietNamNet showed that the storage of hazardous waste at Tisco did not observe current regulations.
Some days ago, VietNamNet published an article about the outdoor waste dumping ground, which is tens of meters long and 2 meters high.
It was estimated that thousands of tons of furnace dust had been collected in the open air with no cover. This had existed for a long time.
