Josh and Kurt Bevacqua are now friends. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua play racquetball together and afterward grab a beer. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua watch the game and commiserate about how things aren't the way they used to be. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua both hate all the noise at ballparks now, the constant blaring music and advertisements and T-shirt-bazooka assaults. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua fear for the future. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua fill a void in one another's lives that's been present for some years and that they can't quite name. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua agree that they are lucky beyond words for the blessings that have come their way, for family, for fatherhood, and yet Josh and Kurt Bevacqua admit to one another that for some reason there are still days when life seems too much to bear, every pitch unhittable, every stick of gum tasteless, every bubble punctured. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua decide to take a day off and go to an amusement park. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua eat cotton candy and ride the rides. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua scream while flying upside down on a roller-coaster based on a billion-dollar movie franchise. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua go home at dusk exhausted, the sky growing dim but still faintly illuminated. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua shake hands and say see you tomorrow, meaning for racquetball. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua, anxious to mask the warm feelings for one another's companionship, mock one another's lack of racquetball skills, then one another's sexual shortcomings, then one another's general standing in life. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua are just kidding at first, but their words gradually grow heated, for it has been a long day and moreover a long life that has, for all its blessings, not been without disappointments. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua come to blows. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua are separated by strangers. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua thrash at the arms of the peacemakers and scream I never liked you, I never liked you, you don't know shit about anything, you couldn't hit water if you fell out of a fucking boat. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua go home and tend to their cut lips and scuffed fists. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua eventually let go of their rage, then their grief. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua, months later, run into one another at the racquetball facility. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua get to talking, then laughing. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua let bygones be bygones. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua play racquetball together and afterward grab a beer. Josh and Kurt Bevacqua are now friends.

I had stuffed animals as a kid. The dog shown here isn't one of them. I don't have them anymore. My favorite was a stuffed dog named Spot. He and I used to have brawls. I used to punch him and throw him across the room, and I'd pretend he was doing the same to me. The key element of the whole recurring fantasy was that Spot was beating the shit out of me as I was beating the shit out of Spot. I suppose I imagined that in the end I threw the final, decisive punch, but this victory was secondary to the central function of the whole endeavor, which was to pretend that I was in a horrible fight. I don't know why I was so prone to imagining violence, specifically violence being done to me. There wasn't any actual hitting of me or anyone else in the house I grew up in, besides my older brother sometimes becoming so exasperated with my incessant needling commentary and questions and need for attention that he'd punch me in a "phaser-set-to-stun" kind of way in the arm.
And yet, I still imagine my face getting smashed in on a fairly regular basis. Life is one fucking invisible worry after another, one thing breaking after another, one long day after another. And now, for me, there's a small boy in the center of it, not even two years old, and it's up to me to protect him, as if I could do so by draping my arm around him like the stuffed dog in this photo is doing to Jim Gott, one of the cards my son plays with sometimes. But I can't protect him. I'm at the mercy of forces far beyond me.
Spot is in a landfill somewhere, I guess, probably all but disintegrated. He was full of white Styrofoam pellets. Because of all the fighting I subjected him to, he sprung several wounds and would bleed the little white pellets everywhere. I imagined bleeding all over the place, too. Then the two of us would lie there together in the wreckage, arm in arm, and make peace.

My son's baseball cards reside, in theory, in a small wicker basket downstairs. My wife found this one in a completely different part of the house and brought it to me.
"It's a baseball card, I guess?" she said dubiously, handing me the two larger pieces.
"Here's his head," she added.
Sometimes in the evening when my wife takes a brief break from her 24-hour-a-day job, I take my son downstairs and dump his cards onto the carpet. Sometimes I read the backs of the cards, which often prompts him to grab the card out of my hand and then look at me, grinning. Sometimes he handles some of the cards while I try to flip them one by one across the room and back into the basket. Eventually, he gets bored with the cards. Check that, I don't know whether you can ascribe the feeling of boredom to him. He gets restless, interested in seeing something else. He's walking now, so there's always something around the next corner as well as a way to get around that corner. Sometimes he takes a baseball card with him when he goes, and sometimes he chews on it until it falls to pieces.
I pieced this chewed card back together and then poked around on the Internet in search of some details about the photo. I figured out it was taken during a moment that the subject of the photo hoped would change the fortunes of his struggling team for the better. In a game the Royals would end up losing anyway, Royals catcher Bryan Pena blocked Chase Headley of the Padres from scoring.
"I hope that that little thing will turn it around for us," Pena was quoted as saying in the San Diego Union Tribune. "It's for us to try and figure out and turn our luck around."
The play didn't really turn anything around. The Royals were a sub-.500 team before it happened, and continued to play sub-.500 ball the rest of the year. But maybe life isn't so literal, so linear. Maybe everything is scrambled, a plaything, and we're lucky just to hold on.
The Tao of ExpoMarch 5, 2013
For most of my life, when baseball cards came to me, I sorted them into teams. The majority of my baseball cards from my childhood are sorted by teams right now, each team wrapped in a rubber band. The exception to this general rule is in the cards that I've written about, which have been removed from their teams and are loose in the shoebox, as if the process of writing about the cards is a way to offer them back into the originating randomness of life. I vowed early on to write about every single card that remains from my childhood, and I still plan to keep that vow, but right now the shoebox with all my old cards is in a closet, out of my immediate reach for the first time in many years. There are a few reasons for this. One is that I'm using whatever small pockets of time I have for writing to work on a new book (that's not about baseball cards). Another is that I don't want my 19-month-old son to get his hands on those cards just yet. Finally, after writing about my baseball cards for several years, there's something appealing to having them go away, get a rest from my exhausting attention, gain strength in silence, like they did all those years when they were in a storage facility.
But baseball cards are still in my life, more actively now than at any time since my childhood. They belong to my son, a heaping pile of loose cards, some new ones from 2012 and 2013 and some older ones that came as a gift to me from my wife's aunt, who found the cards in a binder at a garage sale. They're all from the late 1980s and early 1990s. My wife helped me remove them all immediately from the protective plastic of the binder, and we piled them on the living room rug like leaves, where our son Jack started doing something very much like the breaststroke through them. Then, the diaspora: the cards were gradually scattered all over the house. This is how things get sorted now, through play. I find a card in the bathroom, another on the cat scratch pad. A favorite site for cards is my guitar. Jack likes dropping them in there. He can't say guitar yet, but he makes a sound that approximates the sound of a guitar being strummed. "Dao," he says when he wants to play with the guitar, the same way you'd pronounce the Chinese philosophy of embracing the randomness and transience of life. He said this the other day, and when we got to the guitar a backup catcher from a defunct team was inside. Oh, to live inside music, holiness itself. Oh to be an Expo forever, free of the sorted world.
Sabathia Crushed by Dump TruckFebruary 28, 2013
It's not my habit or talent to break news, and what's more I don't even care about news. I'm an "olds" guy, more interested in say, Ralph Garr's batting average in 1974 against righties and articles about Mark Fidrych's consultations with a hypnotist in 1979 than I am with anything whatsoever to do with the upcoming baseball season, or, for that matter, with any current events at all. But I figured it'd be irresponsible of me to not pass along a report of the event pictured in the photo to the right. It is difficult to make out the identity of the player in question, but I happened to have been an eyewitness and can confirm that it is New York Yankees ace CC Sabathia who is being crushed by a dump truck full of sliced apples. So, you know, you might want to cut him from your fantasy squad or whatever.
OpeningFebruary 20, 2013
My son has been a little melty lately. As in, he is prone to melt downs. I think it has something to do with his being at the cusp of language. Something in his world isn't how he wants it to be, or some feeling wells up that he doesn't quite know how to manage. He can say a few words and knows the meanings of several more, but there is an infinite number of things beyond his grasp. It's beyond anyone's grasp, forever, but eventually we learn to make some kind of truce with our inability to translate the world into words. He hasn't gotten there yet. When there's something that needs to be said and no way to say it, he gets upset. When this happens, I try to get him thinking about something else. This photo is from a few days ago, when I handed him a pack of the new 2013 baseball cards. He got quiet, attentive, interested in what was in his grasp. I had to get the flap open a little, but he took it from there. We've opened packs before. Thanks to Jack, baseball cards, present tense—baseball cards for pure fun—are back in my life for the first time since childhood. When Jack got the wrapper off, he took it over to the sink and pointed to the cupboard below, where we keep the garbage bin. I opened the child lock on the cupboard and he put the wrapper in the trash. He had the baseball cards in his other hand, but he knew that the wrapper and the cards were different. The cards mean something. He started handing them to me, and I read aloud the names of the guys we got.
George BrettDecember 16, 2012
(This post originally appeared on The Classical.)
Three: Rocky Roe
Beside the Donnie Moore card and the fragment of Mr. October is a 1994 George Brett card featuring an unusual photo (for the genre). The card's perspective is from behind the plate, its subject, George Brett, following through on a swing that has resulted in the ball bounding toward second base. In the background, the scoreboard is clearly visible, providing plenty of clues to allow the moment to be identified.
In an uncertain world, it's nice to come upon hard evidence, even if the evidence doesn't matter. Maybe this is what's behind my lifelong attraction to meaningless baseball occurrences. Despite the complete lack of societal or personal need for any illumination whatsoever about the photo shown in George Brett's 1994 baseball card, I found myself researching details about the moment it occurred. The card lent itself well to this wasting of time. That's probably part of the draw. To waste time. To squander. But sometimes it also feels good to know something, anything.
I found the game (an 8–7 Royals win), and the result of the play (groundout, Brett's last at-bat of the day; on an earlier pitch in the at-bat, Brett had fouled a pitch off his foot, injuring it), and the identity of the pitcher (Jaime Navarro, now a coach with the Mariners) and catcher (Joe Kmak, now a high school math teacher). The umpire is Rocky Roe. Roe's prominence in the card, no less than the last card of an inner circle Hall of Famer, is unusual if not unprecedented in terms of baseball card portraiture. Based on the composition of the shot, the card could easily be for Roe, not Brett. But what could possibly go on the back of a card for an umpire? And who would want such a card?
Roe got his start as a major league umpire in 1982, as a replacement for Lou DiMuro. DiMuro had ascended above the general anonymity of his profession a couple of times in his long career, once for being smashed into and injured by the gigantic Cliff Johnson, and once a few years earlier for his role in a famous World Series moment. He was the umpire behind the plate in Game 5 of the 1969 World Series. After ruling that a pitched ball had not hit Cleon Jones in the foot, he changed his ruling when presented with evidence: shoe polish on the ball. This keyed a Mets' rally, and the Mets won the World Series, arguably the most improbable World Series win ever, evidence to many of miracles, of magic. Thirteen years later, after umpiring a game in Texas, DiMuro was hit and killed by a car. Rocky Roe got a call, filled a void.
Roe was the home plate umpire in Game 5 of the 1986 ALCS. As far as I can remember or recover through my compulsion to do pointless, time-consuming research, he did not make any controversial calls during the crucial moments of that game. One of his rulings during the fateful ninth inning, when it still seemed the Angels were going to surge into their first World Series, was that Boston batter Rich Gedman had been hit by a pitch thrown by Gary Lucas. It was not a disputed call.
Gary Lucas still feels guilty about the pitch. He was brought in specifically to face Gedman, lefty on lefty. After hitting the Boston catcher, Lucas gave way to Donnie Moore, who gave up a two-run home run to Dave Henderson. All these years later, Lucas still wonders about his role in Donnie Moore's subsequent suicide. "If I do my job that night," he told Los Angeles Times reporter Jerry Crowe in 2010, "perhaps he's still with us."
Guilt is one way to create a thread connecting one event to the next. Shouldering the world this way, as a burden, is an excruciating way to live, but the deep vein of guilt running through the collective human narrative suggests that we prefer suffering fictions to the alternative, a world without evidence, beyond our control.

Swapping Dukan for Atkins WOE
Hello everyone,
I'm thinking of moving to Atkins from the Dukan diet.
The reason is because, for me, I'm just not getting any energy from the Dukan WOE.
Also, my moods have changed from doing this WOE.
Just wondering if anyone has made this swap, and if so, how did it go for you?
Did you put on much weight with the changeover?
Just any info would be great! Thanks very much for any replies.
First of all: :welcome:
I did the dukan years ago. Initially, I lost weight, but then the low fat and the high protein stalled me. Also the oat bran did nothing but give me IBS. I stopped it. I didn't do a direct swap, I ended up doing a major detour off the wagon completely! Now I'm back doing good old Atkins style High Fat, Medium Protein, Low Carb. I feel good. I am not sure about weightgain from going from Dukan to Atkins.
I guess you will have to keep an open mind and see how it goes? Sorry I can't be more helpful!
All I can say is that you really need to stick to induction if you want to start Atkins. Do a clean Induction, minimum two weeks, no tweaking, no changing things around. Don't worry about weightloss or gain in those first two weeks. Then, evaluate how you feel and look at your weight. If you are happy, and you feel better, then congratulations, you have found your new WOE!
Also, you may get some induction flu, depending on how high your carbs were on Dukan... Just a heads up!
Good luck and do let us know how you get on! (And we're here to help, so don't be shy and ask lots!)
Dr. Eades wrote a great two part blog post about getting through induction flu. Google 'dr. eades tips & tricks'.
I hope you decide to make the change. The book I read rating various low carb plans had a variety of reasons Atkins is better for you and works better too, not that I can recite them off the top of my head! LOL good luck.

Just above the Seventh Street entrance to the National Gallery of Art's West Building is one of the city's greatest rooms. It's a space that mixes beauty with power, history with the present.
Here are seven paintings by Titian, one of the foremost artists of the Italian Renaissance. A portrait of Vincenzo Cappello, a Venetian admiral, dominates the room. The painting exudes might: Cappello's armor is shiny, his rich red cloak soaks up light, his baton declares authority. A warrior's helmet is perched on a ledge behind him.
Cappello's story has contemporary echoes: In the mid-16th century, Cappello led a victorious naval campaign against the Turks at Risano, thereby saving Christian Venice from the encroaching rush of Islam.
Behind Cappello and to the left is one of the greatest child portraits in all of art: Titian's painting of 12-year-old Ranuccio Farnese, the grandson of Pope Paul III. Not long after the picture was finished, the pope made Ranuccio archbishop of Naples, a daring bit of nepotism that served to reinforce the pope's power. Whereas Cappello challenges the viewer with a stare, Titian's child looks shyly off to our left, revealing an endearing vulnerability.
But not so fast: On closer examination, we see that young Ranuccio is wearing a sword. Titian was telling an age-old story: that it's not unusual for the children of great men to be elevated whether they're ready or not—and that sometimes they reach for their swords too quickly.
This would be a very good gallery in Florence, Madrid, or Paris. Here in Washington it's remarkable. It's a room of the best of Italian art, situated in a 1941 neoclassical building meant to remind the world that the United States of America is the new empire. Titian's paintings present Venice's military might, its wealth, its power. The paintings are smartly hung, beautifully lit, and on view for free.
Across Fourth Street, in the National Gallery's East Building, is a space as muddled as the Titian room is great. It should be one of the premier galleries in America, a room that reveals the richness of American painting in the 1950s the way the Titian gallery shows the apex of Venetian painting in the 1540s.
First, the art: There are five Mark Rothkos, a nice representation from the gallery's collection of one of the greatest abstract painters. Three of the paintings feature Rothko's moody color clouds, and two others are the black-on-gray paintings Rothko made just before committing suicide. One of the best Jackson Pollock drip paintings, "Number 1, 1950 (Lavender Mist)"; one of the best works by Clyfford Still; and excellent examples of Barnett Newman and Franz Kline round out the room. The art is not the problem.
The space—particularly the galleries on the lowest level, where the Rothkos are—is the problem. The walls, some permanent, some temporary, are broken up by distracting cut-out doors and panels. The artificial lighting is spotty and harsh, leaving the bottom two-thirds of the Rothkos lit while the tops are in the dark. The Stills and the Pollock suffer similar indignities. Despite the artistic riches it holds, the gallery is usually empty. The setting fights the art, and visitors can feel it.
Herein lies the dichotomy: The National Gallery has one building that features the best museum rooms in America and one that has some of the worst.
In the West Building, the NGA displays pre-1900 collections of painting, sculpture, and works on paper.
"It's a great, great building," says Arthur Wheelock, the NGA's curator of Dutch art. Wheelock's galleries are in the West Building, just off the main corridor that runs through the upper level. "When people want to go someplace, they go up and down that sculptural spine. If you want to look at Dutch, you peel off. Or to Italian. There is very little through-passage. People are in certain galleries because they want to be there, and that's the great thing about that building. That adds to the sense of peacefulness of the experience."
The East Building features a 20th-century collection that's interesting but not consistent; a dozen American museums have stronger post-1970 holdings than the NGA's. And the collection is installed in rooms that are oddly shaped, that seem to be more like nooks than galleries.
What to do about it? The NGA is filling in its gaps in the systematic way museums build collections. No doubt it will continue to improve its collection of 20th-century art.
But buildings are a different story. They change—or are built—only rarely. It's been 30 years since the NGA last opened a new building. Too much great art is in storage; too much is strangely installed. The National

|East Carolina Pirates vs. Tulane Green Wave

text: Big Boi at CPAC Would Be Interesting... by Ace Of Spades 21 Feb 2013 post a comment Share This: In response to Get Up! Get Out! And Get Big Boi!: ... but, based on what he says, he seems to be a left-libertarian, the sort that can't vote Democratic because they find them too conservative on most issues (such as foreign policy). It is an interesting idea anyway, though. I wouldn't mind some of these conferences having the excitement of an outside-the-box speaker. As it stands I can pretty much tell you who'll be at any conference without checking the agenda. I won't be 100%, but I will be around 50%. Especially at larger conferences like CPAC, where there are multiple ballrooms offering multiple speakers at different times, it seems like a good idea. If some people don't want to hear it, they don't have to; there's always something else going on. These things do seem very predictable and staid. Adding a little danger -- What is Big Boi going to say? Is he going to attack conservatives? What? -- tends to make things interesting and newsworthy. And I don't think conservatives' image would be harmed by little danger and riskiness. Some things like this would be a trainwreck. But that's why trainwrecks are always on TV, isn't it?

Military Veteran Forum For Human Resources And Veterans Program Executives Convenes At New York Stock Exchange On Monday, Nov. 5
NYSE Euronext (NYX) and Four Block will convene an open forum for Human Resources and Veterans Program executives who seek to effectively recruit, retain and engage military veterans. The half-day program, "Integrating Veteran Talent Into Human Capital Strategy," will be held at the New York Stock Exchange on Monday, Nov. 5, 2012 from 8:00a.m. to 2:00p.m., and participants will hear from experts and practitioners who will provide first-hand experiences and share useful resources to develop, expand, and implement initiatives to employ and engage military talent.
"We're pleased to have a number of great companies joining us in this effort to help tap into a world-class, but often neglected, pool of talent – our nation's military veterans," said Duncan Niederauer, Chief Executive Officer, NYSE Euronext. "For millions of Americans who have served our nation with honor and dignity, the toughest challenge they face comes not on the battlefield, but in finding rewarding employment after they leave the military. They have given us their best, often at great personal sacrifice and hardship to their families. It's time we stepped up and give them our best in return."
The forum will provide an opportunity for Human Resources and Veterans Program Executives, as well as others who have been charged with developing and implementing Veterans employment initiatives in their organizations, to learn from experts and practitioners who can provide first-hand perspectives and useful resources. As you formulate and/or expand your firm's plans to recruit, retain and engage Veterans, hear lessons learned and gain insight on best practices.
Speakers and panelists will include: Admiral James Winnefeld, Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs; Col. Jack Jacobs, Medal of Honor recipient; Tom Wolzien, Lead Independent Director, TiVo; Mike Abrams, Co-Founder, Four Block and Author, "Networking for Veterans"; Marshall Carter, Deputy Chairman, NYSE Euronext; and Mr. Niederauer. Also participating will be: Rene Bardorf, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense, Community and Public Outreach, Department of Defense; Joseph Beal, Vice President, Enterprise and Operational Risk, GE Capital – Energy Financial Services ; Derek Blumke, Director, VITAL Initiative, Department of Veterans Affairs and Co-Founder, Student Veterans Association; Maureen Casey, Managing Director, Military and Veterans Affairs, JPMorgan Chase and Co.; Stephen Clark, Acting Director, City University of New York (CUNY) Office of Veterans Affairs; Col. Michael Coss, Director, Soldier for Life Program; Steven Davis, Vice President, Human Capital Management, Goldman Sachs and Company; Dan Hawksworth, Vice President, Global Staffing, Honeywell; Jeff Holbrook, Director, Recruiting Manager, ICG and Global Functions, Citi; Chris Norton, Senior Program Manager, Military Talent Attraction, AT&T Andrew Roberts, Director, Military and Veterans' Liaison Services, North Shore LIJ Hospital; Lisa Rosser, Founder and CEO, The Value of a Veteran; and Danielle Soto, Sr. Manager, Talent Acquisition Operations, TiVo.

At what age do most nurses retire?
- 0Mar 18, '09 by linda2097Do most nurses retire at age 65? Or does the stress of the profession cause most to retire earlier?
- 0Mar 18, '09 by lpnfloridaI think the question would be, would most of us like to retire early versus inability to afford to retire. It is affected by of course ones own retirement funds set up at a young age. Whether a person is single or married. Whether or not ones home is paid off or are you still paying on a mortgage. Easier for married people to retire early versus single people.
My age group is not able to retire until 66 1/2 with full social security benefits.
- 1Mar 18, '09 by reislingI echo lpnflorida, Just hopeI can last that long. Nursing is a very physical job.
- 1Mar 18, '09 by HouTx GuideLOL! Retirement is getting pushed back by my continually declining 401K. I just hope they come up with innovative walkers so that we can all continue to work as long as we need to... maybe segways?
- 0Mar 18, '09 by nurturing_angelThere is no way I am ever gonna be physically able to work til I am 66 years old. I am retiring at 62 ! Even if it means Medicaid!
- 1Mar 18, '09 by traumaRUs, MSN, APRN, CNS AdminI'm 50 now (ugh I even hate to type that). I went back to school at 42 for my BSN, then MSN, then post-MSN APN certificate and I'm heading back to school in August for another post-MSN certificate. All in the name of working until I die!
Seriously, I don't truly think retirement is not working - I think that I will probably work in some capacity till I'm literally too old to do it. My father retired at 62 with full pension, had two homes, plenty of money to do what he wanted to do.
When my husband and I look to retire, I don't see that rosy of a future - I think we will be helping our son and his family out (he is currently laid off and his wife is pregnant) and/or not have enough saved to retire.
- 1Mar 18, '09 by classicdame GuideI plan to work till I am 67 andmaybe part-time after that. But I got off the floor 7 years ago as it was too physical. Now I am an Educator pushing chairs and tables and ice chests around - no such thing as an easy nursing job I guess. Since I lost most of 401K I plan to work---------------
- 0Mar 18, '09 by llg GuideMany nurses "ease into" retirement. For example ... they may transfer into jobs away from the bedside that are less physically demanding ... they may switch to part-time employment ... etc. rather than go suddenly from "full time staff nurse" to "retired" all at once.
Many nurses "semi-retire" while their children are young and never go back to full time employment. Others "officially retire," but continue to do volunteer work or a little part time work to keep involved in their communities and maybe earn a little money.
To paraphrase the late General Douglas McArthur, "Old nurses never retire. We just fade away...."
- 0Mar 18, '09 by LovesGreyhoundsI love the segway idea! I can just picture it now!

Safe Internet Cafe for Afghan Women
- Comments (0)
- Recommended (1)
- View profile
Young Women for Change, founded in April 2011, is an independent non-profit organization consisting of tens of volunteer women and male advocates across Afghanistan who are committed to empowering Afghan women and improving their lives through social and economical participation, political empowerment, awareness and advocacy.
One of the main needs of every individual in globalized world is internet. Especially in areas where the media is dominated by men, internet is key to raising women's knowledge about the world we live in. It helps women and men around the world connect, learn about each other and becoming more empowered. It raises awareness about current issues and it can inspire movements and activism.
Even now, unfortunately, one of the main problems for the Afghan women is using these services for their means without harassment and obstacles. For decades now, women in Afghanistan have been harassed, abused and degraded in public. They fear for their safety when they go out; they are publicly insulted, groped and otherwise verbally assaulted. Going to public spaces, like shops, schools, governmental offices, internet cafes, etc, is a very hard task. If they go to an Internet café, they are harassed, stared at and some times harassment gets to a physical level where men in these places will grope and touch them. This will further discourages women from going to Internet café's and use them and deprive women of information and knowledge as well as the opportunity to network with women around the world.
Young Women for Change wants to create a women-only, harassment-free Internet Café in Kabul to connect more women to the world in a safe and comfortable space!

The base material is usually dry or wet granulated rice or dry flour, to which Sindoor (vermilion), Haldi (turmeric) and other natural colors can be added. Chemical colors are a modern variation.

Ibovespa futures dropped, a sign the stock gauge may snap a two-day rally, as China began a nationwide review of government borrowing amid concern bad debts may curb growth in Brazil's top trading partner.
Real-estate developer Multiplan Empreendimentos Imobiliarios SA (MULT3) may move after posting second-quarter earnings that trailed analysts' estimates. Usinas Siderurgicas de Minas Gerais SA may be active after Banco Itau BBA SA raised its recommendation on the steelmaker to the equivalent of buy.
Ibovespa futures contracts expiring in August fell 0.6 percent to 49,160 at 9:27 a.m. in Sao Paulo. The real slid 0.1 percent to 2.2580 per dollar. China's State Council ordered the debt review, the National Audit Office said in a statement yesterday. The office suspended other projects for this "urgent" work requested on July 26 and will send staff to provinces and cities this week, People's Daily reported yesterday on its website, citing sources it didn't identify.
"We expect Brazilian equities to trade lower," Banco Bradesco SA's economic team wrote in a research note e-mailed to clients today, citing concern about the impact bad debts may have on China's financial system.
The Ibovespa slumped 19 percent this year through July 26, wiping out $222 billion from the value of Brazilian stocks, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Brazil's benchmark equity gauge trades at 12.4 times analysts' earnings estimates for the next four quarters, compared with 10.4 for the MSCI Emerging Markets Index of 21 developing nations' equities.
Trading volume for stocks in Sao Paulo was 5.04 billion reais on July 26, which compares with a daily average of .68 billion reais this year through July 25, according to data compiled by the exchange.

(Adds results from 99.5 percent of precincts in second paragraph, comment in fourth, updates zloty, bonds from fifth.)
Oct. 10 (Bloomberg) -- Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk, who won yesterday's general election, must focus on cutting the budget gap to reverse a zloty plunge as investors shy away from the European Union's biggest eastern country.
Tusk's Civic Platform is set to win 206 seats in the 460- seat parliament after getting 39 percent of the vote, based on results from 99.5 percent of precincts reporting, the Electoral Commission said today. The Peasants Party, Tusk's coalition partner for the last four years, would take 28 seats with 8.4 percent support, giving the two parties a majority.
The government pledged to narrow the deficit to 2.9 percent of gross domestic product next year, counting on 4 percent economic growth to boost revenue. Slowing economic growth and the euro region's debt crisis may derail the plan unless the government takes "more drastic" measures, Fitch Ratings said today.
"The incoming Polish government needs to reassess the country's fiscal consolidation plan in light of slower growth if Poland wants to remain on target to meet the" criteria for euro adoption, Jeremy Carter, managing director at Fitch Ratings, said in a statement from London today.
Zloty, Bonds Gain
The zloty traded at a three-week high of 4.315 per euro at 1:30 p.m. in Warsaw. The currency has slumped about 9.5 percent against the euro this year as investors shy away from emerging markets on concern Europe's debt crisis will slow growth.
Polish bonds rallied with a yield on a benchmark 10-year note falling. The yield on bonds maturing on October 2021 dropped 11 basis points to 5.63 percent.
A Tusk win may help bolster confidence in Poland's ability to deal with potential spillover from the euro area's debt crisis, according to Anders Svendsen, chief economist at Nordea Bank in Copenhagen.
"The PO victory and the lower risk of a messy coalition should be good news to the markets," Svendsen said in an e- mailed note. "The zloty is likely to strengthen on the news that the Platform won the elections and that a three-party coalition seems to have been avoided."
The Platform's main rival, Law & Justice, is set for 157 seats after winning 30 percent of the vote, returning as the largest opposition party, the Commission said.
Greatest Challenge
Controlling public finances will be the greatest challenge for the administration that emerges from today's election, Jan Amrit Poser, chief economist at Bank Sarasin, said at a conference in Warsaw on Oct. 7. The general government deficit soared to 7.9 percent of GDP in 2010, exceeding the EU's 3 percent limit for a third consecutive year.
The International Monetary Fund is forecasting 3 percent growth and Citigroup Inc. is predicting a 1.9 percent expansion in Poland, the only member of the 27-nation EU to avoid recession during the global financial crisis.
The budget deficit soared to 7.9 percent of GDP last year and public debt is near the threshold of 55 percent of GDP, a level that would trigger mandatory austerity measures.
The zloty's pre-election tumble sent local-currency government bonds down 15.7 percent in dollar terms last quarter, the third-worst returns worldwide after Greece and Hungary, according to indexes of debt due in more than one year compiled by the European Federation of Financial Analyst Societies and Bloomberg.
'Twice as Hard'
"The next government will have to work twice as hard as in the previous four years since the country faces even bigger challenges," Tusk told a celebrating crowd of supporters at the party's campaign headquarters yesterday.
President Bronislaw Komorowski must designate a new prime minister within 14 days of dismissing the outgoing government. The prime minister then has 14 days to present this new cabinet's program to parliament and win a confidence motion with at least 231 votes in the lower chamber.
The Peasants Party is "the most proven and credible" ally for the next government, Presidential Minister Slawomir Nowak said on private radio station RMF today. The Peasants Party will give "serious consideration" to its coalition options as the results present several possible scenarios, its leader Waldemar Pawlak said yesterday.
Palikot, Democratic Left
Two other parties won enough support to exceed the 5 percent threshold to gain seats in parliament. The Palikot Movement, founded by former ruling-party politician Janusz Palikot, received 10 percent of the vote, which would give it 40 seats, and the Democratic Left Alliance won 8.3 percent of the vote, or 27 seats, according to the preliminary results.
Palikot, a former vodka distiller, clashed with Tusk last year. He urges a quicker overhaul of public finances by cutting spending on bureaucracy, the Catholic church and pensions.
Poland, a country of 38 million people, was the biggest net recipient of EU funding in the bloc's 2007-2013 budget, getting 67 billion euros ($97 billion) in aid to iron out differences between richer and poorer states.
The funding, which helped the Polish economy grow 4.4 percent a year in 2007-2010, may be cut if the country doesn't reduce its deficit to within the EU limit of 3 percent of GDP next year from 7.9 percent in 2010.
'Being Boring'
The EU aid has added an average of 1.5 percentage points to economic growth each year, according to Poland's Regional Development Ministry, and remains essential for economic expansion as budget cuts may limit consumer demand and public investment.
Tusk may be the first Polish prime minister to be returned to power since the fall of communism in 1989. According to Andrew Michta, head of the German Marshall Fund's Warsaw office, that shows the Poles have matured politically over the last two decades.
"If the numbers hold, this is in my book a vote for continuity," he said. "I guess there is something to be said about being 'boring' in the case of Poland."

The high jump is a track and field event in which competitors must jump over a straight bar placed at measured heights without the aid of positive devices. In its modern most practiced format, auxiliary weights and mounds have been used for assistance; rules have changed over the years. Over the centuries since, competitors have introduced increasingly more effective techniques to arrive at the current form. Javier Soto mayor (Cuba) is the current men's record holder with a jump of 2.45 m (8 ft 01⁄4 in) set in 1993, the longest standing record in the history of the men's high jump. Stefka Kostadinova (Bulgaria) has held the women's world record at 2.09 m (6 ft 101⁄4 in) since 1987, also the longest-held record in the event. A jump is considered a failure if the bar is dislodged by the action of the jumper whilst jumping or the jumper touches the ground or breaks the plane of the near edge of the bar before clearance . The technique one uses for the jump must be almost flawless in order for one to have chances of clearing a high bar. Competitors may begin jumping at any height announced by the chief judge, or may pass, at their own discretion. Three consecutive missed jumps, at any height or combination of heights, will eliminate the jumper from competition. The victory goes to the jumper who clears the greatest height during the final. If two or more jumpers tie for first place, the tie-breakers are: 1) The fewest misses at the height at which the tie occurred; and 2) The fewest misses throughout the competition. If the event remains tied, the jumpers have a jump-off, beginning at the next greater height. Each jumper has one attempt. The bar is then alternately lowered and raised until only one jumper succeeds at a given height.

Three things that our latest FHM girlfriend Summer has in common with actual summer:
01 Both Summer and summer are hot. Reference points being the above gallery and that time you got drunk, fell asleep in your garden and couldn't bend your lobster red legs for three days afterwards.
02 Hanging out during summer or with Summer will generally involve loads of booze and being car-parked. Carparked meaning drunk obviously and not dogging like those Channel Four mask people.
03 In summer people wear less clothes and Summer likes wearing less clothes. In fact, if there was a holiday named after her: "It would probably involve me not wearing a lot of clothes and having a big party."
Which we think is bloody marvellous.
Grab the latest mag or subscribe straight to your iPad for more glorious snaps and Summer talking about pole-dancing, getting car-parked and arranging car park rendevous.

In what top-10 ranking does Boise join nine other much-larger cities from across the nation, from the San Francisco metro area (No. 1) to Seattle-Tacoma (2), Philadelphia (3), New York City and Washington D.C. (tied for 4), Baltimore (6), Boston (7), Portland (8) and San Diego (tied for 9th)? The answer: Yoga.
Forbes Magazine reported Friday on the "Top 10 Cities for Yoga in the U.S.," and while the S.F. Bay Area was tops with its population 59 percent more likely to practice yoga than the general U.S. population, Boise made the list, tied for ninth place with San Diego, with the residents of both rated as 21 percent more likely.
"Idaho may seem like an unlikely hotspot for yoga," the magazine wrote. It also reported, "The most yoga-mad metro area in the nation: San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose, Calif., where residents are 59% more likely to practice yoga than the general U.S. population. The Bay Area has long been at the forefront of the American yoga scene — San Francisco was, after all, the first city to set up a yoga room at its airport." You can read Forbes' full report here.
