Top UN official calls for strategies to empower women in rural areas
UNITED NATIONS, Feb. 28 (APP): UN Deputy Secretary-General Asha
Rose Migiro has called for systematic and comprehensive strategies to empower women in rural areas to maximize their potential to combat extreme poverty and hunger, and help them facilitate sustainable development in their communities.
If rural women had equal access to productive resources,
agricultural yields would rise and hunger would decline, Migiro
told delegates at the opening of the 56th two-week session of the UN Commission
on the Status of Women (CSW), which got under way at UN Headquarters on Monday.
"Yet the reality is that rural women and girls have restricted
access to land, agricultural inputs, finance, extension services and technology.Rural women also face more difficulty in gaining access to public services, social protection, employment and markets", she said.
The commission's latest session focuses on the role of rural women and their contributions to fighting poverty and hunger, and how they can be empowered to become effective catalysts of sustainable development.
Pakistan's 5-member delegation is led by Fiza Batool Gilani, the country's goodwill ambassador on women empowerment. Other members of the delegation are: Begum Shahnaz Wazir Ali, special assistant to the prime minister, Bushra Zulqarnain, member of the National Commission on Status of Women, Khawar Mumtaz, member of the National Commission on the Status of Women and representative of civil society, and Saeed Ahmed Alvi, secretary of the Ministry of Human Rights.
In her opening speech, Migiro said that rural women must first be recognized as key agents of change. Support for their organizations can help ensure that rural women's priorities are reflected in macroeconomic policies and rural development and agricultural programmes, she said.
She called for a re-examination of financing for rural development, agriculture and climate change mitigation and adaptation to ensure that it prioritizes rural women and girls. "We need to give greater attention to infrastructure projects, water schemes, renewable energy sources and biodiversity protection," said Migiro, noting that only five per cent of agricultural extension services go to women farmers.
Noting that ad-hoc interventions are insufficient, the Deputy Secretary-General called for a broader policy environment that is responsive to the rights and needs of rural women and girls. States must abolish discriminatory laws and policies, such as those that limit women's rights to land, property and inheritance, or that restrict their legal capacity.
"This session of the Commission on the Status of Women is an opportunity to solidify consensus among governments and civil society on those actions needed to make a real difference in the lives of rural women," she added.
The President of the UN Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), Milo
Koterec, also stressed in his statement to the CSW session that the empowerment
of rural women demands comprehensive strategies that address obstacles that they face.
Policy-makers must therefore adopt a systematic approach for the empowerment of rural women and ensure that the broader policy environment is responsive to the rights and needs of rural women and girls, he said.
Michelle Bachelet, the Executive Director of the UN Entity for Gender
Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women), said empowering women requires
a transformation in the way governments devise budgets and make and enforce laws and policies, including trade and agricultural policies, and how businesses invest and operate.
"If we are serious about this mission, this responsibility, if we
are serious about empowering rural women and unleashing their potential, then we
have to remove the barriers that stand in their way", she said.
"We have to remove the structural, cultural, social and economic
barriers that prevent rural women from participating fully in the
economic and political life of their countries. And we continue to
fail rural women when they die during childbirth, are shut out of
decision-making, and cannot lead healthy and productive lives free of violence
and discrimination.
Let us be clear. This is not just hurting the women. It is hurting all of us", said Bachelet.
According to UN Women, rural women make up one fourth of the
world's population. Some 86 per cent of the global
rural population of the both genders derives its livelihood from agriculture,
with an estimated 1.3 billion people engaged in small
scale farming or working as landless labourers.

Recent Dorrington Reviews
Hale Mauna Review
Rating Details:
I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental.
I was very happy with the location.
The vacation rental was very clean.
The property manager was very helpful.
Overall, I recommend this vacation rental.
Reviewer Comments:
Hale Mauna is a great house and we had a great overall experience there. We will definitely consider it again for future visits to the area. The house was very well stocked just like a nice hotel (towels, soaps, shampoos, etc.). My only suggestion for improvement would be that there seemed to be what appeared to be dog hair on the rugs and furniture. The type that is not the easiest to vacuum up I suppose. If we were dog owners, we'd be used to that kind of thing. But since we are not, we would have preferred not to see it. Overall not a big deal and it would not prevent us from visiting Hale Mauna again since it is a great place.
Manager responded on 1/29/2015:
We are so pleased that you enjoy the Hale Mauna! The owner takes great pleasure in assuring her guests enjoy her home. Just before Christmas she purchased new heating blankets for the King and Queen beds. Thank you for pointing out the dog hair issue. We will address this issue immediately. We hope to have you return in the near future. Thank you!

The 10 biggest employers in San Francisco tech
- Julia Cooper
- Researcher- San Francisco Business Times
- Email | Twitter
It's no secret that San Francisco is home to a who's who of technology — but which companies are the biggest?
In this week's issue of the San Francisco Business Times we rank the 50 largest tech companies based on number of employees in the city.
Tech giants like Google, Salesforce and Twitter crown the top of the list, but the biggest 50 also features hot up-and-comers on the verge of IPOs like Square, Dropbox and Airbnb. In a city that counts roughly 50,000 tech employees overall, the top 50 represent some 28,000 workers.
And these companies are growing. The top 50 hired 3,400 employees in the past year, with plans to add at least 1,600 more jobs throughout 2014.
One surprise from our research — the average age of an employee working at a San Francisco tech company skewed a little higher than one would guess — about 34 years old according to the respondents of our survey.
Like Salesforce, the No. 1 San Francisco tech employer, the majority of companies develop some form of software. Internet is the second biggest industry, including e-commerce sites, online information and search engines, social networking and data storage businesses.
For a peek at the 10 biggest San Francisco tech companies and a map of the hotspots in the City where they're based, check out our slideshow.
Click on the image to start a slideshow of the 10 largest San Francisco tech employers.>>>
While our print edition lists only the top 50, subscribers can see all 115 tech companies that submitted for the list online.
The San Francisco Business Times publishes industry rankings in each issue of the paper and reprints them at the end of the year for our annual Book of Lists. These lists are unique and authoritative sources of Bay Area business news.

Stefan Bradl began the Czech Grand Prix in eighth position. Although the German had risen by two places by the time the chequered flag came down, he and LCR Honda MotoGP had hoped for more.
Brno brought a somewhat solitary Sunday afternoon for the 2011 Moto2™ World Champion, who finished almost ten seconds behind fifth-placed Alvaro Bautista (GO&FUN Honda Gresini) but over 15 ahead of Andrea Dovizioso (Ducati Team).
"The sixth position is not that bad considering the whole weekend, but I really wanted to be faster," Bradl began. "We could not improve the bike as I would have liked because I had many problems with the edge grip on both sides of the rear tyre.
"I had to fight to pick up the bike to get a little bit of drive out of the corner to accelerate. I tried many things to save the rear tyre during the race but here, with these long corners you have to carry the corner speed and, at the beginning, I was behind (Valentino) Rossi and (Bradley) Smith and I saw they could carry more corner speed.
"We wanted to stay with Rossi and Bautista, but I was not capable of keeping that speed. Let's move to Silverstone to keep working."
The coming weekend's Hertz British Grand Prix will signal the third and final race in the ongoing triple-header. In 2012, Bradl qualified ninth and finished the race eighth.

Review: Guns in home raises risk of suicide, homicide
This is the story that YOU wanted to hear us talk about! It received 71 percent of the vote in our Radioactive poll!
As the gun debate rages on in America, a new review said keeping guns in the home increases the risks of both suicide and homicide.
According to NBC News, the review combined the findings of 15 studies conducted on the topic.
Andrew Anglemyer and other researchers said they found 14 of the 15 studies showed an increase in the likelihood of either a suicide or homicide in a home where guns are kept.
"Firearms cause an estimated 31,000 deaths annually in the United States," they wrote in their report, published in the Annals of Internal Medicine. "Data from the 16-state National Violent Death Reporting System indicate that 51.8 percent of deaths from suicide in 2009 were firearm-related; among homicide victims, 66.5 percent were firearm-related."
The report said that people who keep a gun at home were two to three times more likely to be killed.

Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookNo opinion of CEOPros
Everybody needs to rent a car, so the upsell of fuel or coverages was not too hard to do. Also got to educate myself on many car brands and features
Having to wash cars was hard to do in nice clothes. Also had to beg for lower mileage cars. It was also very hard to place advance orders for SUV's or the like. Management never wanted those cars on site because of the depreciation. Had to serve many irate customers because the good cars were all given to general managers favorites. Managers were very sneaky and never wanted to share im portant information with CSR's. Was also told my salary was frozen.
Advice to Management
Stop playing favorites and get the cars people want to drive.

Cindy Oh Cindy Lyrics
Artist: Waylon Jennings
Album: Country - Folk
I joined the navy to see the world but nowhere could I find
A girl as sweet as Cindy the girl I left behind
I've sailed the wide world over can't get her off my mind
Cindy oh Cindy Cindy don't let me down
Write me a letter soon and I'll be homeward bound
I see her face in every wave her lips kiss every breeze
Her loving arms reach out for me through calm and stormy seas
At night I pace the lonely deck caressed by memories
Cindy oh Cindy...
I know my Cindy's waitin' as I walk the dock alone
Her loving arms reach out for me soon I'll be headin' home
Then my sailing days will be over and no more will I roam
Cindy oh Cindy girl...
Cindy oh Cindy girl...

MLS In Preliminary Talks With El Paso Group For Possible Expansion Team
Published June 17, 2014
WHO FOOTS THE BILL? In El Paso, Cindy Ramirez writes questions of where an MLS stadium "might be built and who will pay" for a facility to accommodate at least 18,000 spectators are "just starting to kick up." City and county leaders "say they're excited about the possibility of bringing an MLS team to the region, but warn that it will likely be up to voters whether to pull out a red card on any plans involving tax dollars to build a stadium." El Paso Mayor Oscar Leeser: "Any major investment, we'd need to take it out to the voters. I want to be transparent and make sure the community is very involved" (EL PASO TIMES, 6/17).

Intellectual Ventures seeks to raise $2.5B
- Eric Engleman
- Staff Writer
Intellectual Ventures LLC, the Bellevue patent-collecting firm founded by former Microsoft Chief Technology Officer Nathan Myhrvold, is seeking to raise up to $2.5 billion for a new investment fund, according to a regulatory filing.
A fund called Invention Investment Fund II, which gives an address and phone number for Intellectual Ventures and lists Greg Gorder, one of the founders of Intellectual Ventures, as a contact, indicated in a June filing with the state of California that it aimed to raise up to $1.5 billion in California and up to $2.5 billion total.
It was not clear how much money the fund has raised so far. Shelby Barnes, a spokeswoman for Intellectual Ventures, declined to comment on any fundraising activities.
Intellectual Ventures, founded in 2000, has amassed thousands of technology patents — the firm won't say exactly how many — by buying them from inventors, companies and universities, and generating patent applications through in-house brainstorming sessions.
The firm says it makes money by licensing patents to companies. But many fear that it could become a giant "patent troll" that will use its vast store of patents to file infringement claims against businesses. Myhrvold has refused to rule out litigation, but says it's not part of the firm's strategy.
Intellectual Ventures has been growing at a rapid clip, adding 150 people since last fall for a total head count of 350. The firm plans to open five offices in Asia this year, its first outside the U.S., and recently hired local venture capitalist Patrick Ennis to help lead its global expansion.

The ultimate aim of all creativity is the building, said Walter Gropius in Manifesto of the Bahaus (April 1919): "Let us together desire, conceive and create the new building of the future, which will combine everything – architecture and sculpture and painting – in a single form…." Building will become once again the core unit of design. For something has fundamentally changed: the very nature of information itself, no longer analogue, no longer digital, and not hybrid neither: buildings, cars and people can now be defined as information spaces.
Anthony Townsend, from Taub Urban Research Center, has been asked by the South Korean government to "turn an undeveloped parcel of land on the outskirts of Seoul into a city whose raison d'etre will be to produce and consume products and services based on new digital technologies:
" The main challenge lies in the realization that "half of designing a city is going to be information spaces that accompany it because lots of people will use this to navigate around." Waiting rooms, he claims, become something of an anachronism because no one really waits anymore. Townsend claims that telecommunications in a city in 2012 is going to be a lot more complex:
"The most interesting thing about it will be that you won't be able to see it all at once because all these data structures, computational devices, digital networks and cyberspaces that are built upon those components will be invisible unless you have the password or unless you are a member of the group that is permitted to see them".
In such an environment, - a truly magic one - people themselves become information spaces. Building, cars people, and homes become information spaces that can be described in the same markup languages.
What happens if we network homes in streets and neighbourhoods, in order to share energy, connectivity and other resources?
What does living together mean?

The authors study the issues on distributed geographical packet forwarding in wireless sensor and actuator networks (WSANs) using a stochastic optimal control approach. First, a distributed geographic-informed forwarding (DGIF) scheme is proposed that defines a set of distributed routing policies. Then, the distributed WSAN packet forwarding problem is modelled and analysed from the perspective of stochastic optimal control. The WSAN is viewed as a controlled stochastic system. The routing procedure is determined by the routing policy and system disturbance (e.g. the position uncertainty of remote nodes) jointly. An improved value iteration method is presented to accelerate the convergence of the optimal routing strategy. The reliability-driven routing algorithm (called DGIF-RRP) for emergency applications and the quality-of-service-aware routing algorithm (called DGIF-QRP) for real-time applications are proposed. Simulations are carried out to evaluate the proposed routing algorithms. The results show that DGIF-RRP and DGIF-QRP significantly outperform two enhanced versions of the Dijkstra's algorithm in emergency and real-time applications, respectively.

Comment on article:
The authors of this article unfortunately missed the most important point in trying to see what will happen to groundwater aquifers with climate change - i.e. that increasing rainfall intensity will increase the percent of rainfall going to surface runoff and will decrease the percent of rainfall going to aquifers used for water supply.
Rainfall intensity, seasonal precipitation type, soils, state of vegetation and land use all need attention in assessing the impacts of climate change on ground water supplies.
