VATICAN LETTER Dec-12-2008 (1,160 words) With photos. xxxi
Pope's busy year highlights three themes: St. Paul, Bible, U.S. trip
By John Thavis
Catholic News Service
VATICAN CITY (CNS) -- For Pope Benedict XVI, 2008 was the year of St. Paul, the year of the Bible and the year of the United States.
Amid the hundreds of papal meetings and events, those three themes stood out in special focus as 2008 drew to a close.
In June, the pope opened a jubilee year to celebrate the 2,000th anniversary of the birth of St. Paul. Accompanied by Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew of Constantinople and other representatives of Orthodox and Anglican churches, he said the apostle was a model of missionary courage for people struggling against religious indifference in modern society.
In October, the pope presided over a three-week Synod of Bishops on the Word of God that explored ways to bring Catholics closer to the Bible and promote better use of Scripture in liturgy and catechesis. Closing the assembly, the pope emphasized that the church's missionary activity will fall flat unless it is nourished by scriptural reading and understanding.
The pope will now write a follow-up document based on the synod's 55 final propositions, which included a proposal to admit women to the official ministry of lector, or Scripture reader, at Mass.
In April, Pope Benedict made his first papal visit to the United States, spending six days in Washington and New York and addressing the U.N. General Assembly. Among the highlights were a private meeting with victims of clergy sex abuse, Masses at baseball stadiums in both cities and a solemn visit to ground zero to pray for victims of the Sept. 11 attacks.
During his U.S. visit, the pope took aim at what he called the "attack of a new secularism" that threatens to undermine traditional moral values and the voice of religion in public affairs. American society is at a moral crossroads, he told his listeners, as it faces problems such as social alienation and anger, increased violence and "forgetfulness of God."
The pope's clear and repeated condemnation of sex abuse in the United States was echoed during his July trip to Australia, where he joined more than 200,000 young Catholics from 170 countries for World Youth Day celebrations. Before leaving the country, he celebrated a private Mass with Australian victims of clergy sex abuse.
His visit to Australia was the longest foreign trip in duration and distance. Addressing cheering throngs of young people, he urged them to give themselves to Jesus and told them: "In so many of our societies, side by side with material prosperity, a spiritual desert is spreading: an interior emptiness, an unnamed fear, a quiet sense of despair."
In June, President George W. Bush paid a visit to the Vatican, in a sense returning the pope's visit to the White House two months earlier. The two leaders spoke privately and then, in a break with protocol, took an informal walk through the Vatican Gardens.
Although the pope and the Vatican steered clear of involvement in the U.S. presidential election campaign, as soon as it was over the pope sent a message to President-elect Barack Obama, congratulating him and offering prayers for him and the entire country.
Pope Benedict's third foreign trip of 2008 was to France, where he celebrated Mass for an overflow crowd in Paris and visited the Marian shrine of Lourdes, where he commemorated the 150th anniversary of Mary's apparitions at the site.
China was clearly on the pope's mind in 2008. In May, he welcomed China's Philharmonic Orchestra to the Vatican, saying he wanted to extend a hand of friendship to the country. Later that month, he let the Chinese people know he was praying for them following a deadly earthquake.
The pope also established May 24 as the world day of prayer for the church in China. The text this year expressed the hope that Catholics in China would never live in fear of spreading the Gospel.
The church in Iraq suffered increasing anti-Christian violence and intimidation, and the pope deplored the death of Chaldean Catholic Archbishop Paulos Faraj Rahho of Mosul, who was found dead in March, two weeks after being kidnapped. In July, the pope discussed the worsening situation with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki.
In India, a deadly wave of anti-Christian violence in Orissa state prompted a papal appeal for greater government protection.
In interreligious affairs, the pope helped arrange a new chapter in Catholic-Muslim dialogue when the Catholic-Muslim Forum met at the Vatican in November. Addressing participants, he said members of both faiths have a common obligation to defend human rights and help the world's suffering.
In a meeting in October with the International Jewish Committee on Interreligious Consultations, the pope said Catholic-Jewish dialogue was a "sacred duty." The meeting was shadowed in part by continuing controversy over the sainthood cause of Pope Pius XII. At a Mass Oct. 9 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Pope Pius' death, the pope defended the late pope's efforts to help Jews during World War II; at the same time, he has put Pope Pius' cause on hold while the church reflects more deeply on the issue, Vatican officials announced.
In liturgical matters, Pope Benedict introduced some changes to papal Masses; for one thing, those receiving Communion from the pope now receive the host on the tongue while kneeling. He also approved optional wordings for the dismissal at Mass and was considering a proposal to move the sign of peace to a different part of the liturgy.
The pope issued no encyclicals or other major teaching documents in 2008, yet in talks to parishes, politicians and church organizations he focused increasingly on two themes: economic justice and the environment.
When international leaders met twice for financial consultations during the year, he urged them to tackle global poverty with courage and to honor the commitments made in 2000 toward structural relief to poorer countries.
To the church's own faithful, he hammered home what has become a favorite theme: that the practice of real-world charity is a litmus test of Christian faith, and that those facing God's final judgment will have to respond to questions like, "Did you feed me when I was hungry?"
As the global economic crisis worsened during the year's second half, the pope reminded financial institutions of their duty to put people before profits. He also reminded people that modern ideals of money and material success are passing realities, saying: "Whoever builds his life on these things -- on material things, on success, on appearances -- is building on sand."
In Australia, in the northern Italian mountains and at the Vatican, the pope also spoke frequently about the need to safeguard creation. To World Youth Day participants, he emphasized that the morality of environmental protection flows from God's plan for creation as a whole.
In October, at the increasingly "green" Vatican City, he saw the installation of a new solar-panel roof at the Vatican's audience hall.

MEDFORD, Ore. – Veteran's Day may be over but Southern Oregon students want to make sure support for the troops is year round.
"American Patriot, thank you so much for your service, we're so happy to have someone like you serving our country." They're words of support from 11-year-old Andrew Morris
"If it wasn't for them we probably wouldn't be here right now," Morris said.
Morris was just one of dozens taking part in Rogue Community College's card and letter writing campaign.
"We think it's really important to honor them, and acknowledge them and offer them this support," explained Denise Stanford, RCC's Enrollment Services Specialist.
RCC provided the supplies, the paper, scissors and markers; the participants provided the encouraging words.
"Congratulating all of our veterans, supporting them, as I am one, I just want to make sure they know there are people who care," said student and veteran Matthew Cruz.
Matthew Cruz served in Iraq and is now sending his support back, saying these letters will deliver some happiness, which is exactly why the 11-year-old is taking part, sending happiness in the form of a "thank you."
"I hope they'll fill happy and just think of home and good things," said Andrew Morris.
The letters will go to Operation Support Our Troops America. That organization will then send them to Iraq and Afghanistan.

Exercise tracking platform MapMyFitness will now support two popular wearable fitness bracelets: Nike's FuelBand and Jawbone's UP.
The new integration, announced Thursday, strengthens MapMyFitness' already lengthy list of supported and compatible devices that can sync fitness data with the popular platformMapMyFitness (free for iOS and Android) is a platform supporting apps that utilize GPS technology, so you can map and share your workout routes. The flagship standalone apps are MapMyRun and MapMyRide, for running and cycling, respectively.

To integrate data from your Jawbone UP, it just needs to be connected to your MapMyFitness account and the activity will be synced nightly. That way, you'll be able to see workout data and how many steps you took while wearing the UP bracelet. The main hitch with this integration currently is that MapMyFitness does not support your UP's sleep data or manually-logged workouts. Read more…

Serena Williams has dismissed the view - shared by defending champion Victoria Azarenka - that she is the one to beat at the Australian Open.
The American comes into the season's first grand slam event in blistering form. The winner of 52 of her past 54 matches, Williams claimed the Wimbledon crown, the gold medal at the London Olympics and the US Open title in a stunning second half of 2012.
She also started the new year in imposing fashion, cruising to victory in last week's warm-up event in Brisbane.
When asked today if Williams was the main threat to her chances of defending the Daphne Akhurst Memorial Cup, world number one Azarenka admitted: "Yes, I think so."
Williams, a five-time winner in Melbourne, offered a different view.
"I feel like I have to win seven matches. Everyone in this draw has to win seven matches. They have the same opportunity to do it as I do," she said.
"(But) If I can do it, then that would be great."
Williams is the bookmakers' favourite and she conceded there were pros and cons to being so being so heavily fancied.
"I've been the favourite so many times and I've been the ultimate underdog several times," she added.
"I like being the underdog, you don't have so much pressure.
"Being the favourite is fun too because then you feel like you're the one to beat."
Having taken her time to return to full fitness from a serious foot injury and a pulmonary embolism discovered in March 2011, Williams is now looking in the form of her distinguished career.
And while the 31-year-old accepts she is playing well, she refuses to compare her current fortunes with previous periods of dominance.
She said: "I just feel like I am in the moment right now.
"For this moment, I'm playing well. I really hope I can keep it up and continue to play well. I feel really calm and relaxed, I feel really good.
"I don't feel like I am panicking, I don't feel like I am doing anything over the top. I think for me that's key."
Azarenka is sure to lead the challengers, although prospects of a mouthwatering final showdown were dashed yesterday when they were placed in the same half of the draw.
The Belarusian is now fully fit after withdrawing in Brisbane, ahead of a semi-final clash with Williams, due to a toe infection.
Cynics suggested she had pulled out to avoid the possibility of a morale-sapping defeat so close to Melbourne, claims laughed off by the 23-year-old from Minsk.
"There is nothing I could do to make it happen," she insisted.
"I think I made a good choice by the way. I'm feeling good right now."
The main contender from the bottom half of the draw, Maria Sharapova, comes into the tournament under a fitness cloud.
A collarbone injury, detected last month, forced her to miss Brisbane although she is confident she has made a full recovery.
"I am feeling really good," she said.
"Obviously I would have loved to have gone to Brisbane and play that. But sometimes circumstances don't allow that, and that's okay.
"To me I'd rather be going on to the court knowing that I'm healthy. Yes I might be a little bit rusty but I'll work my way through it.
"I'm experienced enough to know the adjustments I have to make in these types of circumstances."
Sharapova is also experienced enough not to be overawed by Williams' form.
"I think everyone reacts to it a little bit differently," she said.
"But there's a reason why everyone's playing here and everyone's in the draw.
"You can't worry about somebody else that's not even close to you in a certain part of the draw. You have to take it a step at a time.
"That's certainly my goal and my job here."

5 Feisty Face-offs We're Secretly Hoping to See at the VMA's [PHOTOS]
We've all been holding our breaths for quite some time in anticipation of the next, extreme, Hollywood blowout. Tension has been boiling between a few familiar names, and we're hoping to hasten the explosions so we can finally exhale.
If any bombs are going to burst at the VMA's, here's who we predict will be warring:
The Wanted's Tom Parker vs. Christina Aguilera
Will Christina Aguilera apologize to The Wanted's bandmate for her recent ill-mannered behavior, or will she play "Diirty" and rebuttal on the Red Carpet?
Chris Brown vs. Drake
There can only be one winner of "Best Male Video." Is the loser going repeat an old offense and chuck bottles of booze at the winner as he accepts his award on stage?
Chuy vs. Kevin Hart
Chuy takes pride in being the "golden nugget" of prime time television. Will he wrestle against the 5'2″ host to keep his title secured?
R-Pat vs. K-Stew
Are they going to duke it out vampire style over who gets to keep the Bella and Edward action figurines when someone moves out?
Maroon 5 vs. Carly Rae Jepsen
"Payphone" and "Call Me Maybe" absolutely exploded airwaves. Are these artists going to throwdown over who had a bigger AT&T bill??
Only time will tell! Stay tuned and turn on your TV's September 6th to see who emerges victorious.

A fight for the hearts and minds of Malaysia's Muslim majority
A leading opposition party with plans for Islamiclaw is slowly gaining support.
To Nik Aziz Nik Mat, the obligation to make multiethnic and multireligious Malaysia an Islamic state is clear.
"The ultimate political strength is the truth, and the truth is God's revelation that the day of judgment will come. This can't be escaped the evidence is in the holy Koran.''
Mr. Aziz is the 70-year old leader of Malaysia's leading opposition party, the Pan-Malaysian Opposition Party (PAS). His serene, grandfatherly smile belies a grim, acrimonious struggle he is locked in with Prime Minister Mahathir Mohammad's United Malays National Organization party (UMNO) for the hearts and minds of the country's mostly Muslim ethnic Malays, who account for about 60 percent of the population.
It's a struggle in which Aziz is making steady if small gains. With Mr. Mahathir, who has dominated Malaysian politics for more than 20 years, planning to step down late next year, Aziz is hoping to win more political ground, and draw one step closer to his dream of creating a fundamentalist state.
"There's no secret that there's a split right down the middle of the Malay constituency,'' says a Western diplomat. "PAS strategy is to exploit that split to destroy UMNO's claim that it speaks for all Malays."
To be sure, the party's prospects for winning outright control of the national government anytime soon are virtually nil. UMNO has won every election since independence in 1957. In the last election, only about a third of ethnic Malays voted for PAS. Among the rest of the population ethnic Chinese, Indians, and indigenous people there is virtually no support for the party because of its Islamic agenda.
Yet PAS has been riding high since the jailing of Mahathir's popular former Deputy Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim in 1998 on charges of sodomy and corruption which many believe were politically motivated.
Anwar's treatment drove many ethnic Malays from the party and toward PAS, seen as the antidote for "money politics," Malaysia's catch-all phrase for the cozy relationship between privileged businessmen and the ruling party. In 1999 elections, PAS' seats in the national parliament more than tripled to 27. Though a tiny fraction of the total 193 seats, Aziz is expecting similar gains at the next national elections, which will be held sometime in the next two years.

It changes the patterns of muscle contraction within the quadriceps, and allows for much more involvement from the glutes. "Single leg strength is critical in virtually every aspect of skating, and this is a great way to enhance that capacity."

Iraq election: Syria positions itself as trade gateway to Europe for new government
Syria hopes that Iraq election results – due today – will usher in a government open to increasing trade. Previous attempts to boost economic ties were marred by Iraq's assertion that Syria was behind devastating 2009 bombings.
Khaled Al-Hariri/Reuters
Damascus, Syria
As the final Iraq election results emerge today, Syria is eyeing its neighbor to the east for signs that postelection stability could bring an economic boost to Damascus.
With a struggling economy in the painful throes of economic liberalization, diminishing oil reserves, and a rapidly growing population pushing up the unemployment rates, Syria is in need of economic props – and trade and investment in Iraq could be a major one of them.
Iraq is already an important trade partner – the primary destination for Syrian exports, according to 2008 figures from the European Union – but historically tense relations between Damascus and Baghdad have capped the exchange below its potential.
Syrian-Iraqi trade reached $800 million in 2009, but that is still lower than trade prior to the 2003 invasion of Iraq, according to Syrian officials.
"There have been real missed opportunities," says Peter Harling, the Damascus-based analyst for the International Crisis Group. "It is absurd that economic relations between Syria and Iraq aren't better, because the potential is huge for both countries. It would also increase Syrian buy-in to stability in Iraq."
Syria: Iraq's gateway to Europe?
If Baghdad's new regime is willing to turn the page, Syria is interested in acting as a gateway between Iraq and Europe as reconstruction efforts gather pace. A train line between Iraq and Turkey via Syria, which opened in February this year, was seen as a boost to the trade potential.

ABC News' Teddy Davis and Huma Khan report:
President Obama called into the "The Ed Schultz" radio show this afternoon and was asked about Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski's lighthearted jab at his NCAA picks.
"I see the Duke coach doesn't like your picks?" Asked Schultz.
"Coach K, I think, is a great coach. And you know, Reggie Love, my assistant, played for Coach K. And so it's not surprising. I didn't pick him to go to the finals. Look he's a competitive guy, I just don't think they've got the inside game to go all the way. But I look forward to him proving me wrong," the president said.
It all started with a small interview. Obama filled out his bracket with ESPN reporter Andy Katz this week. His Final Four picks — North Carolina, Louisville, Memphis and Pittsburgh would make it to the Final Four, with the Tar Heels winning the tournament.
"I still think that Duke, a lot of skilled parameter players, [but] they just don't have the muscle inside. I think [Pitt's DeJuan] Blair is going to eat them up," the president said.
Responding to the president's lack of faith in Duke — head coach Krzyzewski took a joking jab at the president yesterday, saying: "Somebody said that we're not in president Obama's Final Four. And as much as I respect what he's doing, really, the economy is something that he should focus on, probably more than the brackets. Why would I care about that? I love the guy, and I think he's gonna be great."

Library resources about Health promotion |
Health promotion has been defined by the World Health Organization's (WHO) 2005 Bangkok Charter for Health Promotion in a Globalized World as "the process of enabling people to increase control over their health and its determinants, and thereby improve their health".[1] The primary means of health promotion occur through developing healthy public policy that addresses the prerequisites of health such as income, housing, food security, employment, and quality working conditions. More recent work has used the term Health in All Policies to refer to the actions to incorporate health into all public policies. There is a tendency among public health officials and governments—and this is especially the case in neoliberal nations such as Canada and the USA—to reduce health promotion to health education and social marketing focused on changing behavioral risk factors.[2]
Recent work in the UK (Delphi consultation exercise due to be published late 2009 by Royal Society of Public Health and the National Social Marketing Centre) on relationship between health promotion and social marketing has highlighted and reinforce the potential integrative nature of the approaches. While an independent review (NCC 'It's Our Health!' 2006) identified that some social marketing has in past adopted a narrow or limited approach, the UK has increasingly taken a lead in the discussion and developed a much more integrative and strategic approach[3] which adopts a holistic approach, integrating the learning from effective health promotion approaches with relevant learning from social marketing and other disciplines. A key finding from the Delphi consultation was the need to avoid unnecessary and arbitrary 'methods wars' and instead focus on the issue of 'utility' and harnessing the potential of learning from multiple disciplines and sources. Such an approach is arguably how health promotion has developed over the years pulling in learning from different sectors and disciplines to enhance and develop.
The "first and best known" definition of health promotion, promulgated by the American Journal of Health Promotion since at least year 1986, is "the science and art of helping people change their lifestyle to move toward a state of optimal health".[4][5] This definition was derived from the 1974 Lalonde report from the Government of Canada,[4] which contained a health promotion strategy "aimed at informing, influencing and assisting both individuals and organizations so that they will accept more responsibility and be more active in matters affecting mental and physical health".[6] Another predecessor of the definition was the 1979 Healthy People report of the Surgeon General of the United States,[4] which noted that health promotion "seeks the development of community and individual measures which can help... [people] to develop lifestyles that can maintain and enhance the state of well-being".[7]
At least two publications led to a "broad empowerment/environmental" definition of health promotion in the mid-1980s:[4]
The WHO, in collaboration with other organizations, has subsequently co-sponsored international conferences on health promotion as follows:
Work site health focus on the prevention and the intervention that reduce the health risks of the employee. The U.S. Public Health Service recently issued a report titled "Physical Activity and Health: A Report of the Surgeon General" which provides a comprehensive review of the available scientific evidence about the relationship between physical activity and an individual's health status. The report shows that over 60% of Americans are not regularly active and that 25% are not active at all. There is very strong evidence linking physical activity to numerous health improvements. Health promotion can be performed in various locations. Among the settings that have received special attention are the community, health care facilities, schools, and worksites.[11] Worksite health promotion, also known by terms such as "workplace health promotion," has been defined as "the combined efforts of employers, employees and society to improve the health and well-being of people at work".[12][13] WHO states that the workplace "has been established as one of the priority settings for health promotion into the 21st century" because it influences "physical, mental, economic and social well-being" and "offers an ideal setting and infrastructure to support the promotion of health of a large audience".[14]
Worksite health promotion programs (also called "workplace health promotion programs," "worksite wellness programs," or "workplace wellness programs") include exercise, nutrition, smoking cessation and stress management. Reviews and meta-analyses published between 2005 and 2008 that examined the scientific literature on worksite health promotion programs include the following:
Worldwide, government agencies (such as health departments) and non-governmental organizations have substantial efforts in the area of health promotion. Some of these entities and projects are:
The WHO and its Regional Offices such as the Pan American Health Organization are influential in health promotion around the world.[21] The main eight health promotion campaigns marked by WHO are World Health Day, World Tuberculosis Day, World Blood Donor Day, World Immunization Week, World Malaria Day, World No Tobacco Day, World Hepatitis Day and World AIDS Day.[22]
The International Union for Health Promotion and Education, based in France, holds international, regional, and national conferences.[23][24]
The Australian Health Promotion Association, a professional body, was incorporated in year 1988.[25] In November 2008, the National Health and Hospitals Reform Commission released a paper recommending a national health promotion agency.[26] ACT Health of the Australian Capital Territory supports health promotion with funding and information dissemination.[27] The Victorian Health Promotion Foundation (VicHealth) from the state of Victoria is "the world's first health promotion foundation to be funded by a tax on tobacco. ".[28]
The province of Ontario appointed a health promotion minister to lead its Ministry of Health Promotion in year 2005.[29]
The Ministry's vision is to enable Ontarians to lead healthy, active lives and make the province a healthy, prosperous place to live, work, play, learn and visit. Ministry of Health Promotion sees that its fundamental goals are to promote and encourage Ontarians to make healthier choices at all ages and stages of life, to create healthy and supportive environments, lead the development of healthy public policy, and assist with embedding behaviours that promote health.[30]
The Canadian Health Network was a "reliable, non-commercial source of online information about how to stay healthy and prevent disease" that was discontinued in 2007.[31]
The BC Coalition for Health Promotion is "a grassroots, voluntary non-profit society dedicated to the advancement of health promotion in British Columbia".[32]
The Health Promotion Forum of New Zealand is the national umbrella organization of over 150 organisations committed to improving health.[33][34]
The Research Centre for Health Promotion and Resources HiST/NTNU (http://www.rchpr.org) was established in Trondheim in 2010. The Centre, led by Professor Geir Arild Espnes, takes part in the scientific exploration of what promotes, maintains and restores good health – both in healthy, vulnerable and diseased populations. The research group has a bio-psycho-social- existential health understanding. Health is understood as a positive resource which every person has more or less of. The Centre will contribute to new knowledge about the following:Factors that promote, sustain, and restore good health in healthy people, vulnerable or exposed groups, and those with health deficiencies.Factors that promote health (i.e., salutogenesis) as opposed to focusing on factors that generate illness and disease (i.e., pathogenesis).
Health promotion in Sri Lanka has been very successful during recent decades as shown by the health indicators. Despite the numerous successes over the years, the integrity of the health system has been subjected to many challenges. Sri Lanka is already facing emerging challenges due to demographic, epidemiological, technological and socio-economic transitions. The disease burden has started to shift rapidly towards lifestyle and environmental related non-communicable diseases. These are chronic and high cost and will cause more and perhaps unaffordable burden to the country's health care expenditure, under the free of charge health services policy. The previous success of health development increased the life expectancy of Sri Lankan people to 72 for male and 76 for women but the estimated "healthy life expectancy" at birth of all Sri Lanka population is only 61.6
Health is affected by biological, psychological, chemical, physical, social, cultural and economic factors in people's normal living environments and lifestyles. With the current rapid changing demographic, social and economic context and the epidemiological pattern of diseases, the previous health promotion interventions which found to be effective in the past may not be effective enough now and the future to address all the important determinants that affect health. Promoting people's health must be the joint responsibility of all the social actors. These challenges require significant changes in the national health system toward new effective health promotion which has been accepted worldwide as the most cost effective measure to reduce the disease burden of the people and the burden of the nation on the increasing cost for treatment of diseases.
The development of this National Health Promotion Policy is based on: (a) the evidences from Sri Lanka health promotion situation analysis, (b) the international accepted concept, the WHO guiding principle for health promotion and the World Health Assembly resolutions and WHO South East Asia Regional Committee Resolution, and (c) the State Policy and Strategy for Health and the Health Master Plan 2007–2016.
The key strategies for health promotion are: advocacy and mediate between different interests in society for the pursuit of health; empower and enable individual and communities to take control over their own health and all determinants of health; improve the health promotion management, health promotion interventions, programs, plans and implementation; and partnership, networking, alliance building and integration of health promotion activities across sectors.
In Sri Lanka, other non health government sectors and NGOs are currently active implementing their community development projects with the community empowerment concept that resemble the healthy setting approach for health promotion. These projects are the high potential entry points and good opportunity for the formal commencement of the new effective setting approach health promotion and the holistic life course health promotion. It is also an opportunity for partnerships and alliance building for concerted action to promote health of the nation. This policy is formulated to promote health and well-being of the people by enabling all people to be responsible for their own health and address the broad determinants of health through the concerted actions of health and all other sectors to make Sri Lanka a Health Promoting Nation where all the citizens actively participate in health promotion activities continuously for a healthy life expectancy.
The policy objectives are as follow :
Various strategies have been developed for the attainment of each objective focus on the multi-sectoral comprehensive approach and participation of all stakeholders and the people themselves. This National Health Promotion Policy will be monitored and evaluated at all levels. Participatory monitoring and evaluation will be encouraged at implementation level.The National Health Promotion Consortium and the National Health Council will be responsible for the regular monitoring and evaluation of the implementation of this National Health Promotion Policy. Implementation of this policy will also be monitored regularly as part of the overall process of monitoring the activities of the Government and Ministries and covering various sectors and levels of government.
The Royal Society for Public Health was formed in October 2008 by the merger of the Royal Society for the Promotion of Health (also known as the Royal Society of Health or RSH) and the Royal Institute of Public Health (RIPH).[citation needed] Earlier, July 2005 saw the publication by the Department of Health and Welsh Assembly Government of Shaping the Future of Public Health: Promoting Health in the NHS.[citation needed] Following discussions with the Department of Health and Welsh Assembly Government officials, the Royal Society for Public Health and three national public health bodies agreed, in 2006, to work together to take forward the report's recommendations, working in partnership with other organisations.[citation needed] Accordingly:
In Northern Ireland, the government's Health Promotion Agency for Northern Ireland which was set up to "provide leadership, strategic direction and support, where possible, to all those involved in promoting health in Northern Ireland". The Health Promotion Agency for Northern Ireland was incorporated into the Public Health Agency for Northern Ireland in April 2009.[35]

Jessie J, 'Who You Are' (Lava/Universal/Republic)
- SPIN Rating:7 of 10
Label: Lava/Universal/Republic
The U.K. is well-stocked with twentysomething female pop singers, but chameleonic firecracker Jesse Cornish bears little resemblance to Amy, Lily, Adele, Duffy, Florence, or Katy B. On her debut full-length, the 22-year-old songwriter (see Miley Cyrus' "Party in the U.S.A.") nails a variety of roles: crotch-grabbing punker, '70s soul diva, Kelly Clarkson–style bellower. Her voice can rival Christina Aguilera's for sheer force, but she keeps it on a tighter leash. And "Who's Laughing Now," her update of X-tina's "Beautiful," is such a tart kiss-off, you can almost hear Jessie's neck swiveling.

It's a good time to be Scott Foley, which is a rather pointless statement to make considering there's never a bad time to be Scott Foley. The actor has been known to melt hearts with a simple glance from his captivating amber eyes – my heart included – and has no intent to stop now. All we can do now is prepare ourselves and hope he doesn't spend too much time on our televisions lest we succumb to his tempting gaze. Unfortunately for watchers of Scandal, they'll be getting nothing but more Foley as the show goes into its third season. It's a blessing and a curse.
As reported by THR, Foley has been upgraded from recurring status to series regular for Season 3 and he his beyond thrilled. He considers creator Shonda Rhimes and all involved with the series as incredibly talented, enthusiastic and professional. He also praised the characters for being layered and complex. His character, the mysterious military man Jake, appeared in the second half of Season 2 with some connection to the president. He was then given the assignment to protect Olivia, a relationship that became more romantic over time. Again: those eyes. Watch out for them. You'll get trapped so fast and then disappointed just as quickly.
Their romance came to an end when Olivia found out he was spying on her for Fitz, but the finale revealed Jake was a good guy after all, never turning against Olivia. Daw, that's so sweet of him! The last we saw of Jake, he was thrown into a hole; the same one Huck had been put in before he dedicated his life to the mysterious B613 organization.
Foley currently stars in The Goodwin Games, but since that series performed poorly and is now shamefully burning off its remaining episodes this summer, we know it won't be coming back. Scandal was a better fit for Foley anyway.

ATLANTA, Ga (June 1, 2011)—Piedmont Healthcare has been selected as the recipient of the 2011 Georgia Free Clinic Network Partnership Award. Piedmont's network of community hospitals in North Georgia have been instrumental in providing lab services, administrative services and financial support to charitable clinics. "This award honors businesses or corporations that have contributed significantly to either Georgia Free Clinic Network or individual clinics," said Donna Looper, executive director of the Georgia Free Clinic Network. "Piedmont's support on behalf of the charity clinic movement in Georgia and long-standing commitment to quality healthcare have distinguished Piedmont in a field of high quality nominees." The Georgia Free Clinic Network connects over 100 non-profit medical and dental clinics across Georgia serving the over 1.7 million uninsured. According to the Georgia State Auditor, these clinics provide $200 to $400 million of care while only reaching 10 percent of the uninsured population. Charitable clinics are the unseen fabric of the health care safety net in communities, especially in rural areas, serving homeless individuals and those with chronic and life-threatening illnesses such as cancer, hypertension, and diabetes. As such, they are forced to focus on acute needs, such as medications, referrals, equipment and funding. "Piedmont Healthcare has been providing a vital service to the communities we serve for over a century," said R. Timothy Stack, president and CEO of Piedmont Healthcare. "As the demand for care grows, it is important that we each do our part to help create healthier communities. By supporting Georgia Free Clinic Network efforts to fulfill primary care needs, we help keep healthcare costs low for everyone and ultimately create stronger and more prosperous communities." Piedmont Healthcare supports the Good Samaritan Health Center in Atlanta, Ga; the Fayette CARE Clinic, in Fayetteville, Ga.; the new Coweta Samaritan Clinic in Newnan, Ga. and the Good Samaritan Health and Wellness Center in Jasper, Ga. For more information on Piedmont Healthcare, visit piedmont.org.

Handbrake PortableBrendan123456789 - May 20, 2008 - 2:18pm
What: Handbrake Why: It is an open source program that is very good at ripping DVDs. Where: http://handbrake.fr/ ( categories: )
OhI just realized that there have already been multiple posts on this topic. I was wondering though, is it impossible to do .NET portable app, or is it just more time than its worth? Also, the Idea of a new GUI in C++ based on the Command Line version, could that work? .NET = Not So MuchIt's not a time thing, it's just a usability thing. John Haller made a post a while back on what PC's have .NET installer, and what versions. A lot of the versions aren't compatible either, so it's not really worth it currently. I really would love to have Paint.NET Portable, and I may do it sometime, but I don't think .NET apps will ever be released here until something more portable comes out... if it does. That probably wouldI've been using it, just using batch files to run converts to iPod, so if someone knows it, they probably could do a GUI, it could start with just the basic profiles included, if it gets released, or before then, you could just do updates to add more options in the meantime "Video games are bad for you? That's what they said about Rock'n'Roll." -Shigeru Miyamoto .Net support.NET support is a non-issue. Since Windows 7 now comes with .net support and many xp systems already have it installed and it came with the latest service pack of xp i think its safe to say you can proceed with portable apps requiring .net support. Respectfully, I disagreeBlackbane, based on the research done by John, I disagree. See his research here: Essentially it boils down to: Statistically, less than 25% of all windows computers currently have .Net included. that may be true but how manythat may be true but how many people are using Windows 7? most people are still using XP if not Vista and a very few rare are using 2kpro and some others are using Linux+wine. These dont have .net installed by default. also in some cases i have heard of .net being disabled in an academic setting. portable handbraketo all those still looking for the portable version, [link to illegal site removed by mod JTH] i am not affiliated to the website. but my download from the site is working perfectly fine. |

One day back in June I was walking by the Thompson Center and came across a whole bunch of Chicago sports team mascots and Valerie Warner and a bunch of school kids. I didn't really know what was going on, so I just took some photos and figured it out later.
Turns out it was the Salvation Army's Hunger Campaign and they were collecting donations. But to make it fun they were having people text for certain mascots. Also, each mascot had a box so you could just put money in the mascot box. These are the mascots who were present:
- Chicago Sky: Sky Guy (WNBA)
- Chicago White Sox: Southpaw (MLB)
- Chicago Fire: Sparky (MLS)
- Chicago Wolves: Skates (AHL)
- Chicago Bandits: Outlaw (National Pro Fastpitch)
Not too surprisingly, the Salvation Army is reporting that the White Sox mascot, Southpaw, won. While I was there, it sure looked like Sparky was winning. It's who the kids liked best, but I guess the kids were not voting with their wallets. More importantly, the Salvation Army raised more than $500.
Along with the mascots, there was Val Warner, who I recognized immediately from WGN Morning News. She and Ryan Chiaverini are now doing Windy City Live in Oprah's old time slot.

As we head further into Zucchini season, we're going to have to come up with many more fresh angles on how to cook this soon to be ubiquitous vegetable. My beautiful and talented wife came up with this great and easy way of making this super convenient and healthy ingredient far more kid and adult friendly. As they often do, garlic and balsamic bring a complex sweetness to this dish. The other trick is moderate heat on the grill (again, this is my wife's trick. Me? I usually blast it). Too hot and they'll scorch. Just right and they soften and sweeten, yet still get a nice toasty-tasty char. We eat these straight, toss them with pasta, top pizzas with them, and put them on panini. My kids (okay, one kid. namely Violet) love these. (Desmond took them off his plate on sight and set them down on the table so they wouldn't sully the rest of his meal)
6 or so zucchini sliced lengthwise
a tablespoon or so of olive oil
a couple tablespoons balsamic
a couple cloves garlic, chopped
toss it all up and grill over gentle medium heat, about 8 minutes a side. You want them tender and a bit charred.

Felis rufus - BOBCAT
$25.00 per month
Born in 1993, Reddie is a Bobcat. Reddie's parents were owned by a private party who are typical of the "Breed for Greed" part of society. These individuals sell exotic cats to anyone willing to pay the price. Sadly the animal is the one who loses since, typically, once the novelty has worn off and the reality of how wild these cats are sinks in, the owners shirk their responsibilityand want someone else to take over. In many cases, they will either try releasing the cat into the wild (which will end up on the news as a wild cat sighting near a home), or they will just have the animal destroyed.
Bobcats are part of the lynx family and are felis or purring cats. This North American cat is like a slightly smaller version of the Lynx,but it occurs in a wider range of habitats. The coat is shorter, the legs thinner, the feet smaller and the ear tufts considerably reduced or even nonexistent,but the markings can be very similar to the more sandy and spotted ones of the Lynx and it has the same cheek whiskers. The Bobcat's usual diet is rabbits, rodents, birds and even deer. Usually silent, Bobcats sometimes make loud screams, hisses and other sounds during courtship. They are named for their short or "bobbed" tail, which is characteristic of bird eating cats. A long-tailed cat would have trouble maneuvering in the bushes. The white spots on the back of their ears look like eyes to larger predators.
