Enormous advances in fabrication, computations, and experimental characterization have the potential to catalyze hierarchical material design, where specific material properties will be attained through not only material choices but also architecture control of its constituents, where historically coupled traits no longer have to set the limits. Based on the exploitation of unique phenomena arising in nano-scale structures, it will be possible to define material design space with vastly superior properties than can currently be achieved. Utilizing architectural features as key elements in defining multi-dimensional material design space promises to enable independent manipulation of the currently coupled physical attributes and to develop materials with unprecedented capabilities.
Creation of extremely strong yet ultra-light materials can be achieved by capitalizing on the hierarchical design of nano structured hollow lattices which promise suberb thermomechanical properties at extremely low mass densities (lighter than aerogels), making these solid foams ideal for many scientific and technological applications. Yet, the dominant deformation mechanisms in such "meta-materials", where individual constituent size (nanometers to microns) is comparable to the characteristic length scale of the material, are essentially unknown. To harness the lucrative properties of 3-dimensional hierarchical structures, it is critical to assess mechanical properties at each relevent scale while capturing the overall structural complexity.
The Greer Group research focuses on the problems of unraveling the physical origins of size-dependent strength in nano-scale solids, where the presence of surfaces causes the emergence of unexpected deformation mechanisms in response to mechanical deformation.
It has been shown that when the sample size is reduced not only vertically (i.e. thin films) but also laterally, the mechanical properties of single crystals, for example, drastically differ from those of their bulk counterparts. They are thought to arise from the distinct defect behavior that emerges as a result of reducing material dimensions to the nano-scale and manifest themselves by causing unusual mechanical properties.
These characteristics include avalanche-like stochastic stress-strain signature, size-dependent strength, and tension-compression asymmetry - prevalent only in those structures where the surface area is significantly higher than their volume, i.e. sub-micron scale.
While these studies provide a powerful foundation for the fundamental deformation processes operating in these materials at small scales, they are a far reach from representing real materials, whose microstructure is often complex, containing boundaries and interfaces.
In fact, both homogeneous interfaces (grain boundaries, twin boundaries, etc.) and heterogeneous interfaces (phase boundaries, precipitate-matrix boundaries, and free surface) in size-limited features are crucial elements in structural reliability of most modern materials.
Establishing the link between the observed mechanical properties and microstructural evolution remains a grand challenge, and one of my major research goals is in establishing a more quantified, predictive relationship between the competing factors of intrinsic and extrinsic limitations on the overall material properties.
Our key research thrusts lie in the development of innovative experimental approaches that enable us to assess nano-scale mechanical properties, and in subsequent design and fabrication of new, innovative materials with tunable desired properties.

The is an introductory promotion for the 4th Generation Chinese SIM to break into the StealthSIM and TurboSIM dominated market.
I am offering 5 pieces of the 4th Generation ChineseSIM for the first 5 interested buyers.
If anyone of you are skeptical about the ChineseSIM, this thread is created for the sole purpose to clear your skeptical.
The ChineseSIM has since developed into the 4th Generation where the IC module is much smaller. The 4th Generation ChineseSIM was also designed for Week 49 and later iphone, as Apple had designed the SIM card slot to be even more constricted.

Social Responsibility
The quest for aesthetics and quality is our primary ethical commitment. We stubbornly pursue an utopian goal: we are convinced that a company's ethics are first and foremost bound up with what it creates and how it does so. Beauty and quality are intrinsic values of what we make.
We conceive of aesthetics in broad terms: as culture, creative freedom, space and time for thought, imagination, and emotion. We conceive quality in a profound way: as a careful and attentive vision of the whole and the details, both in the things we make and the relations we enjoy and protect.
From concept to design, from choice of materials to final production, from workplace to lifestyle and in our relations with our employees, our partners, and our public.
It is our privilege to make objects that by their nature are not disposable and will never become obsolete. On the contrary, Moleskine notebooks tend to become the focus of affection, and are designed expressly to be kept and treasured. Our attachment only grows over time, because a Moleskine product is made out of the thoughts and feelings of its owner. Still, it may also be made out of paper and other materials that impact in some way on the environment. Moleskine SpA is actively engaged in taking every precaution possible to help safeguard the health of the environment:
- All Moleskine notebooks are made with acid-free paper, making Moleskine notebooks environmentally friendly products.
- Moleskine SpA is certified FSC (Forest Stewardship Council).
SUPPORT FOR LETTERA27 through the Detour project
Moleskine brand's primary ethical commitment outside of the company involves lettera27, a non-profit foundation working on behalf of a universal right to education and access to knowledge, everywhere on earth and especially in the world's most deprived and underdeveloped areas.
Moleskine provides financial support to the lettera27 foundation principally through Detour , a special project dedicated to culture and creativity, with traveling shows of special notebooks created by artists, writers, architects, designers, and musicians from around the world. These exhibitions have been held in London, New York, Paris, and Berlin, and will be held in Istanbul, Tokyo, and many other cities. An ongoing adventure in creativity that, through the initiatives of myDetour, involves young and as yet unknown talents, and speaks to all the fans of the Moleskine notebooks in the world.
The archive of the many notebooks created for Detour and myDetour, donated by the artists and writers to the foundation, is on permanent display online and constitutes a growing patrimony of beauty, culture, intelligence, and relationships. Its voyage around the world, through the exhibitions organized by Moleskine, is a continual source of opportunities and resources for lettera27.
Moleskine supports young creatives and emerging talents:
- the young artists of the Bevilacqua La Masa Foundation of Venice.
- Esterni, Milan (Associazione Culturale Aprile Onlus).

Harvey Weinstein goes to London and praises Sarkozy, whales on Silicon Valley
Kris Connor/Getty Images for The Weinstein C
Harvey Weinstein has had just about enough of you Internet content pirates and proposes a draconian "French" solution.
If, in the aftermath of the Stop Online Piracy Act/Prevent IP Act (SOPA/PIPA) battle, you thought that only the most intense financiers of Silicon Valley continue to obsess over threats to the "open Internet, we give you...Harvey Weinstein! The Hollywood Reporter catches up with the outspoken producer in England, where he took the occasion of addressing the BFI London Film Festival to absolutely lay into Big Tech.
But first, he heaped praise on recently dethroned French President Nicholas Sarkozy (who awarded Weinstein the prestigious Légion d'honneur prior to leaving office):
"Whether you like his politics or not, this law was good," Weinstein said, "because people are disincentified to steal."
He said the results also could be seen in a country where 260 French movies were made last year, and difficult funding propositions, like the €14 million ($18 million) black-and-white silent film The Artist, could find people to fund it.
"You get a robust local industry from it," he said.
Weinstein's speech was full of humor and barbed observations.
"I love it when these Internet dudes say to me, 'Hey man, we just want to be 'content neutral,' " Weinstein noted. "Next time, I'll say, 'Sure, I'll get my tie-dye shirt and come and sit in your billion dollar mansion in San Francisco or Silicon Valley for a while, soak it up.'"
Copyright Wars: Google does what Hollywood wants
AFP/AFP/Getty Images
The Google logo is seen at the Google headquarters in Mountain View, California. The company has announced a change to its search rankings, intended to protect copyright.
Last week, Google announced that it's making a change — or more accurately perhaps, a modification — to its search algorithm. This is the explanation, from Google's search blog:
Starting next week, we will begin taking into account a new signal in our rankings: the number of valid copyright removal notices we receive for any given site. Sites with high numbers of removal notices may appear lower in our results....
Only copyright holders know if something is authorized, and only courts can decide if a copyright has been infringed; Google cannot determine whether a particular webpage does or does not violate copyright law. So while this new signal will influence the ranking of some search results, we won't be removing any pages from search results unless we receive a valid copyright removal notice from the rights owner.
Hollywood needs Netflix, but Netflix is struggling
Justin Sullivan/Getty Images
Netflix disappointed Wall Street with its second-quarter earnings. It's trying to get out of the business of delivering DVDs by mail while it grows in online streaming.
In a world where people watching movies and TV shows online is a trend that's absolutely taking off, you'd expect that the biggest name in the streaming space, Netflix, would be doing quite well. And you'd be justified — but also quite wrong.
First, the streaming part. This is from The Wrap, referencing a recent report from the Digital Entertainment Group and looping in Netflix's major business-model change:
The five-fold spike in subscription streaming is largely due to Netflix's shift away from CDs. Spending on subscription streaming hit $548.6 million in the first half of 2012, up from $85 million in the first six months of 2011. [my emphasis]
How could Netflix lose with increases of that magnitude being posted? Easy: All that demand for streaming means Netflix is going to have to spend and spend hugely to feed the demand. Wall Street is concerned about this — as well it should be given that the former darling of the Silicon Valley tech world just saw second quarter earnings call by a whopping 91 percent. USAToday does the numbers:
Microsoft unveils Surface tablet in Hollywood
The new Microsoft Surface tablet PC was unveiled today in Hollywood. Should Apple and the iPad be worried?
As expected, Microsoft unveiled its new tablet, called "Surface," in Hollywood today. The device is designed to attack the market-leading iPad's only real weakness: the perception that it's a device for consumption rather than creation — for reading and watching rather than getting things done.
Unlike the iPad, Surface is less a pure tablet than a sort of collapsible PC. It runs Windows 8, the latest version of Microsoft's well-known operating system. There's an integrated stand and two covers that double as full keyboards, one of which provides a more conventional, tactile typing experience. The whole thing weighs in at about a pound and a half. It's sleek and black and has a ultrabook-esque selection of ports. (Covers come in a range of colors.)
A relatively subdued but kind of intense Steve Ballmer, Microsoft's CEO, called the tablet "a tool to surface you passions, ideas and creativity." He also stressed that it's all about Windows 8, a piece of software that "deserved its own hardware innovation."
Chris Dodd wants Hollywood and Silicon Valley to patch things up
Ethan Miller/Getty Images
Former U.S. Sen. and new Chairman and CEO of the Motion Picture Association of America Chris Dodd speaks at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace during CinemaCon, the official convention of the National Association of Theatre Owners, March 29, 2011 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
You could say that it's the great business question of our era. Certainly it is in California. Why can't Silicon Valley, seat of the tech industry, and Hollywood, capital of the entertainment business, join forces and create a juggernaut of technotainment that will establish the Golden State as the most important place on Earth for innovation and global media?
In theory, it should be a no-brainer. But in practice it's a case of colliding business models. Big Content has built up its ownership of media over the course of a century. It's not going to share the goodies without claiming its cut.
Big Tech, on the other hand, wants all that content to be free, free, free. Chris Anderson pretty well laid it all out, in detail horrifying to Hollywood, in 2009, in his aptly titled book "Free: The Future of a Radical Price." Why? Because the ability to fragment and share content is a critical piece of Silicon Valley's overall business model. Users need to be able to do this by the millions if not billions, so that various Web companies and appmakers can sell ads against the — wait for it — free labor of those users.

The United States Navy released a Public Service Announcement about a synthetic drug use problem with sailors and the Tulsa Veterans Treatment Court is also trying to combat the issue.
The released video shows the demonizing effects bath salts have on a person from that person's perspective and then from the viewer's perspective.
"When people are using bath salts, they are not themselves," said psychiatry resident from the Naval Medical Base in San Diego, Dr. Lt. George Loeffler. "Some people describe people spying on them; other people talk about seeing demons and things trying to kill them. What's concerning about bath salts is these delusions will last long after the drug has worn off—sometimes weeks after."
Tulsa District Court Judge Rebecca Knightingale has watched hundreds of veterans walk into her court with drug issues, but she said in the last two years the rise in synthetic drug cases has climbed.
"I think military and non-military people, too, are using the synthetics drugs because those were not traceable in drug tests, but now that has changed," said Judge Knightingale.
In the last several months the Tulsa Veterans Treatment Court has sent its defendants' samples to a laboratory that can test for synthetic drug use.
Oklahoma State lawmakers banned more than 250 chemicals used to make synthetic drugs in the last two years, but the problem is drug designers are able to create new variations of the chemicals that slip past lawmakers. This presents a challenge and another challenge is accessibility.
"Synthetic drugs are easy to access over the internet," said Judge Knightingale.
She worries about how dangerous the synthetic drugs are on people who are not in the military, and hates to imagine what they could do to a military member with access to military weapons.
"Let's assume your job is to work in a grocery store and you are erratic because of the synthetic drugs you're taking, you may be putting your family at risk and yourself at risk, but you're putting our whole country at risk," explained Judge Knightingale. "If you are in the military and you are a trained infantry man where you regularly use weapons, and you have erratic behavior that's a combination we cannot afford to have."
She hopes the military service members who are using synthetic drugs learn that she will test them and that those chemicals can and will be traced.

READ MORE: Sundance is the Only 'Purely Independent' Festival? Robert Redford Thinks So.
Redford clarified that he would launch Sundance "if there was still a space to have an independent festival, because it's really independence that interests me." By contrast, he quickly ticked off the limited festival environment when Sundance began. "There was Cannes, there was Toronto, I think Telluride was just gearing up. There was the oldest festival in the world in Locarno, Italy. Lincoln Center hadn't gotten to where it is. And then Berlin hadn't come yet. So we had an exclusive space that was sharpened by the fact that we were the only independent festival in the world. So that felt good."
These days, however, "there's a festival in every neighborhood," he added. "I don't know about the overriding value except that we'll get the chance to see more films."

Ekoli Hagenbuchle | February 11, 2013 10:08 PM
I love Locarno but please the city is in Switzerland and not Italy.
That's not a lovely mistake for Swiss citizen.
Brian Newman | January 19, 2013 11:25 AM
While he has specifics wrong and leaves off facts like how long San Fran has been around, his underlying premise is correct. Nearly every festival was started because there weren't good ways to see these films in many cities in the US. We now have lots of access, and most of these fests just regurgitate what Sundance programs. We don't necessarily need fests for discovery and there are way too many now.
GlobalWatchM3 | January 19, 2013 11:17 AM
There are only "too many film festivals," if you're already a very successful big time filmmaker.
Terry | January 19, 2013 10:21 AM
He's getting very close to "You damn kids get off my lawn" territory in saying there are too many festivals. Bob, your indie film revolution was successful. This is what it looks like. The flipside of that is Sundance is no longer the only festival game for indie filmmakers.
seafar | January 18, 2013 12:52 AM
Venice is oldest fest in world, founded in the 1930's. Locarno was founded in 1946. Berlin was founded well before Sundance....but, no matter, that basic premise is correct...or perhaps should be rephrased...there are too many festivals operating under the old premises of festivals.

A restaurant manager is someone who is the 'face' of a restaurant and whose main responsibilities are to deal with any customer service issues, and to ensure that the food quality coming out of the kitchen is the best it can be. He or she also deals with any staffing issues and ensures that everything runs as smoothly and profitably as possible.
Sokanu matches you to one of over 500 careers by analyzing your personality, interests, and needs in life. Take the free assessment now to see your top career recommendations!
Duties may differ depending on the business, but some duties will include the overseeing of food preparation, checking the quality and size of the servings, the organizing of stock, ordering food and drink supplies and equipment, inspection of health and safety precautions, making sure the kitchen and dining areas are cleaned according to certain standards, keeping records of these practices for health inspectors, and solving employee or customer problems. Sometimes it will go as far as managing everything to the last detail, for example ordering flowers for the tables. In addition, restaurant managers are often responsible for interviewing, hiring and supervising the training of new staff members, as well as organizing shifts, promoting good teamwork, paying staff and dividing the tips.
There is one extremely important skill restaurant managers have to be excellent at, and that is customer service. At the end of the day, the aim of the business is to give excellent customer satisfaction, so that the customer will return again. Therefore, it is important that customers receive prompt service in a professional and friendly manner, with enough staff to serve them without having to make them wait unnecessarily. No matter how unreasonable the customers are, the manager needs to possess the expertise and patience to deal with them. It is the manager's job to correct the existing problem and avoid future conflicts.
Very often restaurant managers are owners of the business as well, which means they will closely work with the chef, selecting recipes and compiling menus. Being the owner will also require a restaurant manager to be good at planning and balancing the budget, checking everything is in order and that the accounts balance. In bigger businesses they often plan marketing campaigns and strategies that help meet sales.
There is a chance to become a restaurant manager through gaining sufficient experience in the field and being promoted. Some people attend restaurant manager-trainee programs, work diligently and advance until being promoted to manager. However, the most reliable way to achieve this position is by getting formally trained in Hospitality and Restaurant Management, and being hired strictly for that position. Schooling helps in making smart business decisions. It develops the skills essential for managing employees, creating financial plans and thinking strategically about the restaurant business. Though some employers place a higher value on education than others, possessing a degree or certificate will undoubtedly open more doors for a restaurant management career.
Programs for those willing to be educated in hospitality and restaurant management come in many different shapes and sizes. It is essential to choose a program that not only fits your schedule and budget but will help you achieve your career goals. It often takes two years to get an associate's degree that will provide you with all the training and skills you need for an entry-level restaurant management job. But to have an advantage in a competitive job market, it is strongly advisable to obtain a bachelor's degree that will considerably expand your knowledge. After that you may decide to aim for a master's degree in hospitality and restaurant management if you seek high level positions with a restaurant chain (for example, a regional restaurant manager position) or if you think you might want to teach at some point in your life.
Restaurant managers have a variety of work environments to choose from; from small family-owned restaurants, to golf courses and resorts, to big international restaurants and hotel chains.
Being representatives of the hospitality industry, hotel and restaurant managers are some of the top earners in the field. And for passionate employees in this business the job is likely to pay off in both satisfaction as well as a good paying salary. Depending on your experience and according to the HR data as reported to Salary.com in March 2010, the expected income of restaurant managers is presented here:
Assistant Restaurant Manager (2-4 years) - $31,811 - $45,088 Restaurant Manager (4-6 years) $38,533 - $56,491
High school diploma required
Growing by 12.9% over the next 8 years

On June 1, The Star published a report on information received from Capt. Allen George of the Anniston Police Department, complete with the name, age, approximate address and mug shot of a woman suspected of selling a gun that didn't belong to her.
Two days later, The Star published another report with information from Capt. George about a man fighting in a bar, attempting to buy drugs, again fighting and finally firing a gun multiple times in the parking lot.
But, this second report did not include any information on the suspect and he was not arrested, despite the police stating the gun he was shooting was stolen and the investigating officers did not determine why he had possession of it.
Of these two reports, only the second appeared to pose any threat to public safety yet no information about the suspect which could be useful to the public was released.
What gives, Anniston?

My husband and I bought a new home and I just wasn't feeling so much at home. So I kept bugging him about getting high security locks and an alarm system installed just to be on the safe side. He finally got on the computer the other day and looked up this locksmith company and saw the good reviews so he decided to give them a call. My husband was happy with the price they quoted him over the phone for the services that we needed and he had them come down the next day. They knew what they were doing and I was really happy with their work as well. Thanks for providing us with great service!
I was walking along the street to get to my car and the impossible happened! My keys got caught on my pant pocket and I pulled on them to get them off when they flew out of my hand and into the gutter! Well what I didn't know was there was a storm drain on that part and when I went to grab them I noticed they weren't even there. They had fallen down into the dark abyss of sludge and garbage!! UGH. I called around to find the best locksmith in the area and I was just thrilled when this place quoted the best prices PLUS a special offer! I was so happy, thank you!
The economy is bad and gas prices are high. So i ride my bike to the train station, leave it locked there and take the train to work. Later that day when i was on the train going back home, i realized i didn't have the keys to my bike. I had left them back at work, i called my parents to see if they kept a spare key somewhere and they said no. It was late so i couldn't walk. I called locksmith and they quickly drove down to me and took me out of my misery. Thanks for that great help
I just got all new equipment and boy it was worth it! Very inexpensive, and everyone is awesome!

there my #1 – this locksmith company is super friendly with everyone and can help you with any kind of key or lockout problem. They are reliable and never let you down.
Thanks :] – I love my daughter but she's never been the brightest crayon in the box. She locked my keys in my car...again. The last time this happened it took the tech over 45 minutes just to show up. I really just did not have the time or patience for that today so I gave these guys a shot. The tech showed up within 20 minutes and got me back in my car in no time! I liked him so much I ended up using them to make a duplicate of my key for the next time my keys get locked inside the car-and knowing my daughter there WILL be a next time.
Thanks a lot! I'm definitely coming to you again. I've told all of my friends, family and coworkers to go with you. Cheers!

About this image
About this Publication TitleCivil War Soldiers - Confederate - Misc
Arranged by soldier's surnames, these are images of card abstracts and personal papers never filed within a confederate soldier's original service record file. Papers were collected by the War Department and then placed in this series when their proper filing was uncertain or there was no other place to file them. The usual reason was that the information was insufficient or contained discrepancies and could not be positively identified with any soldier for whom there was a compiled service record.

Defenders of Alamo history are up in arms over a Fiesta medal issued by Artpace, the non-profit contemporary art center founded by the late Linda Pace.
The medal designed by San Antonio filmmaker Jim Mendiola and Los Angeles artist Rubén Ortiz-Torres features British rocker Ozzy Osbourne as a bat. His wings are formed by a pair of upside down Alamos. The image is a reference to the artists' 2001 Artpace residency project, which centered around the urban myth involving Osbourne and the Alamo and San Antonio's status as heavy metal music capital.
Osbourne was arrested for public intoxication after urinating on the Alamo Centotaph in 1982, though the myth that he relieved himself directly on the Cradle of Texas Liberty persists.
On Wednesday, the Facebook page of the Battlefield Friends of the Alamo featured a coverpage with an image of the medal with an 'x' over it and text reading: "SHAME SHAME SHAME on Artpace for their trashy Fiesta medal." It also admonished the organization for "tarnishing the reputation of the late Linda Pace."
Posters' comments included "STINKS" and "That is to art what burning the flag is to people who believe in "free speech". Sad day in San Antonio that this is what captures the essence of the rich and cultural history of a city."
Sarah Reveley is the organizer of the Facebook page, which has more than 1,700 "likes."
"I've sent e-mails to everybody I know," she said. "The whole thing is totally repulsive. Those medals are supposed to honor our Fiesta and be light and cheerful and we have a lot of fun with them. This is just black humor or whatever. It's just horrible."
The medal designed by Mendiola and Ortiz-Torres is the first ever issued by Artpace. They produced a limited edition of 100, but only 50 were offered for sale to the public for $8. It sold out within 48 hours, said Mary Heathcott, deputy director of Artpace.
Heathcott was aware of the Battlefield Friends of the Alamo's posts, but said the organization has not received any direct complaints.
"It is not meant to offend anybody," Heathcott said. "It's based on a 2001 residency project that was created by the two artists. It's directly descended from that project which had the likeness of Ozzy and included photography, video and sculpture."
Mendiola, who recently moved back to San Antonio from Los Angeles, is "bewildered" by the outcry over the medal.
"I don't think it's disrespectful at all," he said. "At the same time, I think the Alamo means different things to different people. Ruben and I actually just wanted to put all these fun elements in a cool medal. We weren't trying to offend anybody. And the upside down Alamo — it looks better as bat wings upside down than right side up. We'll let people interpret it as they want."
Mendiola takes issue with the Battlefield Friends of the Alamo's comments in regard to Linda Pace.
"Just as I can't speak for Linda Pace, it's difficult for me to see how this group can speak for Linda Pace either," he said in a written statement. " What I do know for a fact is that when Rubén and I made our original Ozzy Artpace installation in 2001 Linda not only supported the art project but bought one of the objects for her collection."
In an earlier interview, Mendiola said he would like to see Mayor Julián Castro wearing one of the medals. He's still keeping one in reserve should the mayor call.

The Artibonite Valley, where the cholera outbreak is based, is made up of very rural areas like this one, many villages and a few larger cities. (MCC photo by Silas Crews)
MCC monitors cholera epidemic in Haiti
Linda Espenshade
October 27, 2010
October 27, 2010
Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) has been monitoring the cholera epidemic that has claimed lives and sickened many in Haiti in the past week, especially in the Artibonite Valley, where MCC staff work on reforestation and environmental education.
At this point, however, MCC Haiti believes nongovernmental organizations with a mandate to do medical interventions are best suited to respond to the crisis. In addition, the Haitian government and international health organizations are responding actively to the crisis. MCC Haiti does not have any ongoing health programs.
None of MCC's partner organizations nor MCC's eight workers who live and work in Desarmes, a town in the midst of the Artibonite, have been stricken by cholera.
Prior to the cholera outbreak, MCC distributed water filters in Desarmes as part of its response to the January earthquake. Many relief kits, which contain soap and other hygiene supplies, were distributed in the Artibonite Valley to communities where earthquake survivors are living. MCC hopes those resources will be helpful in safeguarding those communities from cholera.
Another MCC program implemented after the earthquake may help prevent future cholera outbreaks. MCC is paying about 150 earthquake survivors and their families to build multiple terraces above a mountain spring that provides drinking water for the town. Among many other advantages, the terraces and subsequent tree plantings will help prevent rain from washing soil and waste into the spring and into a tributary of the Artibonite River.
The Artibonite River and its watershed are believed to be the source of this cholera outbreak. Cholera outbreaks can happen any place where water supply, sanitation, food safety and hygiene are inadequate.
Please pray for the people who have cholera and their families, as well as the many health and government officials actively working to contain this epidemic. Anyone wishing to donate to MCC's water projects around the world can log onto donate.mcc.org/filter/bytheme [2].
To learn more about MCC's first-year response to the January Haiti earthquake, you can sign up now to receive the January issue of A Common Place, MCC's free, quarterly magazine, at http://acommonplace.mcc.org/ [3].
