Alex Carlisle was responsible for creating Emma's figure and is delighted with
the model has turned out.
Alex said: "The real challenge is getting that
sparkle and likeness. It's a lovely dress but it shows off quite a lot of her
body, which meant we had to get it very accurate.
Due to 'The Perks of
Being a Wallflower' star's busy schedule, she was unable to sit for the model
but Madame Tussauds gathered a huge amount of reference materials including
photography and footage, and based on these resources the sculptors were able to
make accurate measurements for the figure.
A vaccination campaign for
animals in rural Amran is helping to preserve the herds and the livelihoods of
vulnerable families. The campaign is being run by the Ministry of
Agriculture,Find more quality yet inexpensive prescription sportsglasses. with support from the
ICRC, which is providing equipment and vaccines as well as paying for car
rental, fuel and incentives for the vaccinators. ICRC staff accompany the teams
regularly to the field.
It is hard to imagine how animals can survive in
the parched landscape of Amran governorate. But survive they do, providing a
living for thousands of impoverished rural families in a region that has long
been affected by insecurity.
The fact that people, too, have existed for
centuries in such an austere terrain of rock and stone, where narrow terraces
bind the mountain slopes with ribbons of earth, is a miracle in itself.Our hair

The
occupants of the houses, who are some of Yemen’s poorest farmers, lead fragile
lives at the best of times; and if their animals fall ill, or worse, die, then
disastrous consequences likely await the farming families.
We drove
through this ancient land one recent morning to a rocky hollow where farmers had
brought their sheep and goats to be vaccinated against goat plague, a highly
contagious disease also known as "Peste des Petits Ruminants", or PPR. It is
considered one of the most deadly diseases affecting sheep and goats in Yemen,
with the first recorded case having occurred in Hadramout in June 2012.
At the vaccination site, Dr Mohamed Al-Najiri, Chief Officer of the
Livestock Department in Amran, confirmed how important animals are for the
community. "People here lead simple lives and have limited resources," he said.
"Poverty is very high.We have a record for a owonsmart living at an address. Animals
are the basic source of income for everyone.
At the vaccination site
veiled girls and women in voluminous garments were everywhere, shooing the
jostling animals together so that the vaccinators could conduct their work. In
one hand the vaccinators carried a syringe, and in the other hand a can of red
dye with which to spray each animal after it had been vaccinated.
Village sheikhs with weather-worn faces stood chatting on the sidelines,
prayer beads strung over their “jambeeya”, the traditional dagger that is part
of every man's dress code in the north of Yemen.
It was baking hot by
the time the vaccinators paused for breakfast at around 11.00am. As they
crouched on the ground, eating from a common tray, an old woman sitting some
distance away caught my eye. She was wearing a large straw hat, and was staring
out into the blue morning, contemplating perhaps the grandeur of the mountains
opposite, sitting very still.

to move on. The animals that had been vaccinated were also leaving, picking
their way across the boulder-strewn slope, snatching at anything edible they
could find. The shepherd children followed, skipping nimbly from rock to rock,
chivvying along the strays. Seeing them made me think how narrow the margin is
