Almost Nuts! Announces Soy Nut Recipe Contest
Sharing recipes have become more popular than ever today. Almost Nuts wants to help provide healthy soy recipes to their customers with their new contest.
Denmark, WI (PRWEB) May 31, 2013
Almost Nuts has launched a contest for people to submit their favorite soybean recipes. The winner will be judged on creativity, re-pins on Pinterest, and taste. Entries can be submitted at http://www.soyalmostnuts.com through the contact us page. The winner will receive some delicious Almost Nuts.
We asked owner Darren Kornowske, "Why a recipe contest?" Darren stated, "We have noticed on our Pinterest page that recipes are being shared now more than ever. But some people may be especially interested in more soybean recipes because they are lactose intolerant, vegetarian, or looking for a healthier alternative. We thought a recipe contest would be a great way to give people more of these recipes to choose from!"
Some soybean recipes could be used for meals, and others could be used for snacks. No matter what age the consumer ends up being, they will probably find that these delicious recipes could be the perfect substitution for many snacks that were undoubtedly unhealthy for them. Being able to get the same delicious taste without having to put bad ingredients into one's body is something that a lot of people will no doubt appreciate.
Almost Nuts is going to share the recipe submissions on their Pinterest page, http://pinterest.com/soyalmostnuts/, for everyone to check out, you can place your vote by pinning the recipe to your page.

Angels manager Mike Scioscia confirmed today that struggling right-hander Joel Pineiro will be dropped from the starting rotation and move to the bullpen to work out his issues.
No replacement for Pineiro has been named. But the Angels will need someone to start Wednesday in New York. If Jered Weaver does not drop the appeal of his six-game suspension following his start Friday -- and does not receive a reduction in the suspension when a hearing is held (most likely in New York Monday or Tuesday) -- the Angels could be in the position of needing another replacement starter next weekend in Toronto while Weaver serves the suspension.
Scioscia would not answer questions about possible replacements for Pineiro -- a list that most likely includes Trevor Bell and Jerome Williams from Triple-A Salt Lake, top pitching prospect Garrett Richards from Double-A Arkansas and left-hander Hisanori Takahashi, currently pitching out of the Angels' bullpen.
Through his start Wednesday night against the Twins, Pineiro has allowed 39 hits (including five home runs) in his past 20 1/3 innings. Over his past four starts (all losses for the Angels), he has allowed 24 runs in 13 1/3 innings, surviving through the fifth inning just once in that time.
But he did win Thursday's Angels Cooking Challenge at ESPN Zone Anaheim in Downtown Disney.

Yusef & Samira
I'm not a marriage counselor but it doesn't take much to see that young Muslims' unrealistic expectations, fears, families, and career ambitions – among other factors – are contributing to a high rate of single and divorced Muslims. In my own circle, for every happily married couple that I know, there are three or four people still looking for the right connection.
For a long time I was one of those people. I was a true romantic, believing that if I searched hard enough and met as many people as possible then, eventually, I would find the person of my dreams. When I met a woman of interest, I was assertive and clear in my approach. Though I still think that's an important part of meeting someone and is a method that everyone should utilize when looking for their future partner, I also strongly believe that there is work to be done before meeting the partner of your dreams.
The first thing we need to ask ourselves is: Who do I need to be in order to meet and attract the person that I'm looking for?
We have a lot more to do with meeting the person of our dreams than we realize. I offer this advice as someone who has gone through this exact process. I was looking for someone that was honest and faithful, someone who was serious in the practice of her deen. But, I wasn't in the right place to attract that type of women. The actions I was taking in my life were inconsistent with the life I said I wanted, with the woman I wanted it with. For years, this held me back.
What I realized is that we can't have expectations of our partner if we don't adjust our own behavior or expectations of ourselves accordingly. As humans, there are many things outside of our control, but, for the most part, we have the life we choose. It's easy to blame someone else or to see yourself as the victim of circumstance. It is always more challenging to look within ourselves to see what we can choose or behave differently. You yourself could be precisely what is preventing you from the life and love that you seek.
Let me give you an example from brotherly love. One day while driving, I heard a man being interviewed on WBEZ. He spoke eloquently and passionately and I was impressed by his responses. It wasn't until a few minutes into the interview that I realized that it was actually my older brother being interviewed! For much of my life, he and I were not close, and I blamed him for us not having the relationship that I wanted us to have.
But, after hearing him on the radio, I asked myself: What have I done to contribute to our relationship? For the first time, I took responsibility. It was the beginning of a personal transformation for me that affected every relationship in my life, including the one with my brother.
Some time after that epiphany, I met Samira. She is originally from Harlem, but when I first connected with her she was living in Oman. I was living in Queens, and there was an 8-hour time difference and over seven thousand miles between us. My previous experiences with long distance connections were bad and I'd vowed never again to consider someone who wasn't in the same area as me. But our connection was unlike any other I'd experienced before. She had over 95% of the qualities that I'd mentally listed as desirable in a spouse, down to the little, silly things.
After a couple of months of conversation, we reached the point in our courtship where I had to choose whether I wanted to continue exploring this connection with someone that I could fall in love with, or end it because of my fears of a long-distance relationship based on past experiences. I chose to be the person I needed to be – to face my fears so that I could accept Samira into my life.
It was one of the best decisions I've ever made. Samira decided to move back to New York City permanently after we both realized that we were utterly and undeniably in love.
Eventually, we decided to get married and we've been inseparable ever since.

How Virtue Ethics Informs Medical Professionalism

We argue that a turn toward virtue ethics as a way of understanding medical professionalism represents both a valuable corrective and a missed opportunity. We look at three ways in which a closer appeal to virtue ethics could help address current problems or issues in professionalism education—first, balancing professionalism training with demands for professional virtues as a prerequisite; second, preventing demands for the demonstrable achievement of competencies from working against ideal professionalism education as lifelong learning; and third, avoiding temptations to dismiss moral distress as a mere "hidden curriculum" problem. As a further demonstration of how best to approach a lifelong practice of medical virtue, we will examine altruism as a mean between the extremes of self-sacrifice and selfishness.

TK Maxx charity day particularly poignant for one member of staff
Updated 12:47pm Sunday 23rd February 2014 in By Joanna Morris
A CHARITY day held at a Darlington shop yesterday (Saturday, February 22) was particularly poignant for one member of staff.
Adam Young, team leader at TK Maxx on Crown Street, was one of many getting into the spirit of things as the shop hosted a series of activities to raise money for Cancer Research.
As part of a TK Maxx national initiative to support the charity, volunteers manned cake, tombola and facepainting stalls while local musician – and Mr Young's sister – This Little Bird, aka Rebecca Young, performed in-store.
The cause is particularly close to the hearts of the Young siblings as their father is currently undergoing radon therapy to treat a growth on his back.
Mr Young said: "This is quite a personal thing for us and we really wanted to give our support to this and help to raise awareness.
"It's been a great day and it's been nice to see so many customers showing their support too.
"It's been especially nice to see so many families as cancer hits a lot of young people."
As part of the initiative, TK Maxx is inviting customers to donate bags of unwanted goods to be sold in Cancer Research charity shops across the country.
So far, about 80 bags have been donated at the Darlington shop but staff are hoping to collect 350 by the end of March, which marks the end of the six week campaign.
To donate, take bags to the in store drop-off point.

The Court of Appeals held that the calculation of loss should be accomplished by adding up the amount of money lost by victims of the scheme, the "loss to losing victims method." The Defendant argued that a "net loss" method should be used that offsets the total loss with the profits earned by other investors. The court rejected this method because it under represents the amount of money that the victims lost in the scheme.

Investigators have identified a second non-crew voice captured by cockpit recordings extracted from the crashed Polish presidential Tupolev Tu-154M.
The Russian Interstate Aviation Committee (MAK) has not given a name for the individual, but says it has "identified the second specific person" whose phrases were listed in the transcript of the cockpit conversation.
One other non-crew voice has already been confirmed as belonging to Polish air force commander Andrzej Blasik.
While a version of the transcript from the MARS-BM cockpit recorder was formally handed to Polish authorities on 31 May, several sections of the conversation were rendered unintelligible by noise.
MAK says it is working specifically to clarify two phrases from the previously unidentified non-crew voice.
The Tu-154 crashed on approach to Smolensk in dense fog on 10 April, after sinking below the correct approach path, but no explanation has yet been given for the decision to attempt the landing in conditions far below minima.
Specialists in the audio spectrum analysis are attempting to refine the transcript of the cockpit discussion, to obtain a clear understanding of the reasoning that led to the fatal approach.
Russian authorities have also recruited test pilots from the Gromov research institute as well as the military, along with experienced Tu-154 cockpit personnel and aviation psychologists, to analyse the Polish flightcrew's actions.
Analysis of the terrain-awareness warning system and the flight-management system on board the ill-fated Tu-154 shows both were providing information to the crew correctly. This research was carried out in the facilities of Universal Avionics Systems in the USA.

Bristol, TN (SportsNetwork.com) - Kyle Busch continued his dominance at
Bristol Motor Speedway and in the Nationwide Series by winning Saturday's
Drive to Stop Diabetes 300.
Matt Kenseth, who is Busch's teammate at Joe Gibbs Racing, led 178 of 300
laps, but Busch grabbed the top spot with 90 laps to go when Kenseth was

Busch, who led a total of 120 laps, claimed his record-extending 16th NASCAR
national touring series race win at Bristol -- seven in Nationwide, five in
the Sprint Cup Series and four in the Camping World Truck Series. He won both
Nationwide races at this 0.533-mile oval last year.
It was Busch's second victory of the season and the 65th of his Nationwide
career. He won two weeks ago at Phoenix.
Kyle Larson, the pole sitter, grabbed second from Kevin Harvick with five laps
remaining, but Larson ended up finishing 1.45 seconds behind Busch.
Earlier in the day, Larson topped Busch in qualifying to earn his first career
pole in Nationwide. Larson was penalized for speeding on pit road early in the
One year ago, Busch and Larson battled hard for the win in the closing laps of
the Nationwide race at Bristol. Busch beat Larson, then a rookie in the
series, to the finish line by just 0.023 seconds.
Harvick finished third, while Ryan Blaney took the fourth spot. Kenseth faded
late in the race and ended up finishing fifth.

Is PyObject_IsTrue() available in the version of python present on RHEL 5? If so, I'd be in favor of a followup cleanup patch that removes all our hacks in favor of the python glue code that does the same thing.

Apple SVP Eddy Cue Sells $8.76 Million of AAPL
Posted December 5, 2012 at 7:23pm by here | 4522 views| Please help us and submit a translation by clicking
Apple Senior Vice President of Internet Software and Service, Eddy Cue, sold off 15,000 shares he had in the company last week worth about $8.76 million, according to an SEC filing relayed by CNET.
Before making too much out of last week's sale, consider that Cue was given a hearty bonus of 100,000 restricted stock units last November, designed to keep him and others there for the long haul. The first bunch of those shares vests on September 21, 2014, reliant on Cue continuing to work at Apple.
Cue sold those shares at an average price of $584/share. Apple SVP Bob Mansfield also recently sold off some of his AAPL stock for about $20 million.

Brilliant move. He knows exactly to where apple is heading to.

Wow, seems like everyone at Apples corp are selling all their stocks fast before the market plummets to hell. Everyone is getting rid of their stock before some serious shit happens, like investors and such start to get rid of everything that is Apple. Seems like something on the inside is happening and these guys know about it, so they are trying to save their asses before they lose out of some serious cash. Cashing out know before they get screwed. There goes Apple and the sharks of Google and Samsung is near by ready to eat....lol
Webbuy - December 5, 2012 at 7:55pm
Or they could just be getting in on the rush to sell before the capital gains tax increases. With a likely 5% increase looming, that's a pretty hefty hunk of change to save, even if the stock value holds.

With that in mind, we have designed Mastering Business Analytics, a three-month education program featuring exclusive data from leading analyst houses, interviews, opinion and a webinar with insights from subject-matter experts in Brazil - business leaders and advisers that have been there and done that.
Analyzing Big Data in Brazil: What did we learn?
Summary:We conclude the Mastering Business Analytics program with an exclusive report on the state of Big Data and analytics in Brazil
The market for data analytics in Brazil is is growing so fast that it should pass the $1bn mark by 2017. But understanding the real potential of these tools applying them successfully to businesses is still a big question mark to many decision makers worldwide and that is also the case in Brazil.
To conclude this initiative, we created an exclusive report based on our investigation of the current state of affairs in this market, as well as the trends and issues faced by companies looking to make the most out of data and how can Brazilian organizations make Big Data strategies work.
This report also covers findings from the Office of Strategic Priorities of the Minas Gerais state government, one of the first Big Data case studies in Brazil, as well as the difficulties faced by the government organization and their plans for the future.

Business blames wealthy SMSFs for its failure to invest
It's estimated SMSFs own 16 per cent of the Australian share market and some say that's driving business to put dividends before capital investment.
It's estimated SMSFs own 16 per cent of the Australian share market and some say that's driving business to put dividends before capital investment.

Twenty-three children — nine girls and 14 boys — have been selected for the National Bravery Awards-2010.
Two awards have been given posthumously. The children will receive their awards from Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and participate in the Republic Day Parade.
The prestigious Geeta Chopra Award has been conferred on 13-year-old Jismi P.M. of Kerala. She saved two children from drowning.
The Sanjay Chopra Award went to 11-year-old Priyanshu Joshi of Uttarakhand for saving his sister from a leopard.
Vishnudas K. (17) of Kerala, Moonis Khan (15) of Madhya Pradesh and Ipi Basar (16) of Arunachal Pradesh were awarded the Bapu Gaidhani Award.
The youngest award winner this year is six-year-old Shrawan Kumar from Rajasthan. He rescued a one-year-old girl and her two-and-half-year-old sister from a burning hut in Sarneshwar village.
Gathered at the Indian Council for Child Welfare office at Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Marg here on Monday, the children spoke of their brave deeds.
Prevents bank robbery
Eleven-year-old Gurjeevan Singh from Punjab, who helped prevent a bank robbery by attacking the thieves with bricks, said: "I confronted the robbers with bricks. They opened fire at me but I escaped. But I did not budge and kept attacking them with bricks. The pistol slipped from their hands and others managed to catch the robbers," said the brave heart.
Also to be awarded this year is a 16-year-old girl from West Bengal. She was stripped and paraded by members of her own clan on the suspicion of having relationship with a non-tribal boy. She showed exemplary courage by helping the police arrest the offenders. She has now started life afresh.
Other recipients of the awards are: Kalpana Sonowal and Rekhamoni Sonowal (Assam), Rahul Kurrey and Parvati Amlesh (Chhattisgarh), Anoop. M. and Raj Narayanan (Kerala), Rohit Maruti Mulik (Maharashtra), Md. Nurul Huda (Manipur), Freedy Nongsiej and Lovelystar K. Sohphoh (Meghalaya), Lalmawizuali (Mizoram), late Chhampa Kanwar (Rajasthan), Bibek Sharma (Sikkim), Uttam Kumar (Uttar Pradesh) and late Shruti Lodhi (Uttarakhand).
1957 scheme
The National Bravery Award scheme was initiated by the Indian Council for Child Welfare in 1957. So far, 800 children — 568 boys and 232 girls have been given the award.

Agreed. Compared to many games (noteworthy: WAR, AoC, SWTOR, Aion), GW2 is much more polished. I'm not saying it will be perfect and without a single bug upon release and a few weeks afterwards, but it certainly is very well put together. I think people should have high expectations yet realize that GW2 still has much more to grow.

I'll start with this one...
I agree with MikeB, I would also not qualify the "downward trajectory" which WOW is currently experiencing as "epic fail", however, I would argue that something is not "right"; you don't lose 1 million subs in 3 months without there being an issue which is not being addressed. A lot of games don't even have as many subs as WOW lost in 3 months, let alone a third (even a fourth) of WOW's active subscribers.
Why is Blizzard, behemoth of behemoths in the gaming industry, losing subscriptions at the rate that it is? I would argue a combination of multiple factors:
The Economy: A stagnant and sluggish economy never helps anyone,especially businesses. People just don't have as much money to spend anymore, therefore superfluous spending (entertainment in this case) will decrease.
The aging giant: This November WOW will turn 8 years... 8 years!! In some cases, aging can be a good thing, in other cases, a bad thing. I think in Blizzard's case, it's a little of both. Blizzard's experience is second to none, they have had and for the most part sitll have some of the best devs, artists and designers in the industry; however, that can be a double edge sword... not very easy to teach an old dog new tricks. People are (and have been for a while now) tiring of WOW's repetitive and tiresome mechanics. Some complain of the outdated graphics/style and general look of the game, others about the mindless and never ending repetitive gear grinding treadmill and others are easily distracted by newer games whilst ignoring WOW's "old" stuff (there is a different reason for every player; 9.1 players... 9.1 million different reasons).
Newer (dare I say "better"?) games: To sports fans, there is a huge difference between losing a game and getting beaten. If you lose the game, it was your fault, if you got beaten, they were better and you couldn't do anything about it. I would argue in Blizzard's case, it's yet again a combination of both situations. Blizzard is old but it still has a lot of life and energy in it; and as I've stated before, it still has some of the best devs in the industry. However, WOW (since that is the topic of discussion) can only go so far, much like an aging athlete. At some point (to continue with the analogy) better athletes arrive and sometimes the aging athlete just can't compete the way he/she used to (think Lance Armstrong in his last Tour de France). Eventually better games will come and players will have to decide whether to stick with WOW or move on to a newer game.
I could go on and on but for the sake of those reading this, I'll stop right here.

Location: Online on Skype and YouTube
Date: A one year 'rolling' conference starting November 1, 2011 and ending Oct 2, 2012
Vision: We envision a global culture of empathy and compassion, in a world where people experience the joy of being connected to each other and interconnected with all life.
Mission: The 'How Can We Build a Culture of Empathy and Compassion?' conference will contribute to building a global culture of empathy and compassion by bringing interested people from various world communities together to
foster synergy, build awareness and grow momentum,
inspire, support and motivate one another
share ideas and strategies
network and develop partnerships
generate plans for empathic action.
Additionally, a sub-conference asks: How to Nurture, Foster and Teach Empathy in the Education System?

Saybrook University to Sponsor Chip Conley "Emotional Equations" Book Signing Events01/09/2012
San Francisco, CA, January 5, 2012 – Saybrook University announced today that it is sponsoring signing events for Chip Conley's new book, "Emotional Equations" (January 10, Free Press). In the book, Conley, dynamic entrepreneur and author of the bestselling "Peak", has developed a new lexicon for an emotionally intelligent age by introducing brilliantly simple formulas to help us explore and articulate something that challenges and connects us all: our emotions. Illustrating how to gain greater perspective and create the perfect equation for any situation, equations like "Joy = Love - Fear" and "Despair = Suffering - Meaning" have been reviewed for mathematical and psychological accuracy by leading experts. Conley shows us how to solve these equations (and how to formulate our own) through life examples and stories of inspiring people and role models who worked them through in their own lives.
The three Saybrook University sponsored events will be held in:
· San Francisco January 11
· Los Angeles January 25
· New York February 23
In addition to the above events, Chip Conley will be the keynote speaker at Saybrook University's residential conference on January 14, 2012. This conference brings together faculty and students from Saybrook's Graduate Colleges of Psychology and Humanistic Studies and Mind-Body Medicine for intensive classes and workshops in multiple disciplines. Chip Conley will also be the keynote speaker at Saybrook University's LIOS Graduate College (Leadership Institute of Seattle) graduation on June 18, 2012 in Seattle, Washington.
Dr. Jürgen Kremer and Saybrook doctoral candidate Robert Jackson-Paton develop textbook on ethnoautobiography01/09/2012
This past fall, Saybrook's Jürgen Kremer and Robert Jackson-Paton developed and piloted a textbook for use at Sonoma State University (SSU), based on their work in ethnoautobiography . The book contains a glossary, practical activities, and case studies to help students understand ethnoautobiography and use it as an effective research tool.
Following the success of the pilot version, the book will be submitted for publication next summer and used in additional upcoming courses - both at SSU and the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS). The book is titled
Stories of Decolonization, Autobiography, Ethnicity: Unlearning Whiteness and Reclaiming Participatory Senses of Place and Society - An Ethnoautobiographical Workbook
Expanding on a manuscript that was published by Prof. Kremer in 2003, the book considers ethnoautobiography to be a practice of radical presence. A helpful glossary is included, describing central terms used in this book. Rather than call it a glossary, however, Kremer and Jackson-Paton prefer the term "conversation pieces" because these are "reflections intended to stimulate conversation" rather than inflexible and finalized definitions.
Table of Contents and Summary
Conversation Pieces
Chapter 1: Who Am I?
The origins and varieties of ethnoautobiography are described, with three ethnoautobiographical stories as examples. Ethnoautobiography is the telling of a decolonizing story which takes an Indigenous sense of "ethno," including ancestry, history, place (ecology), seasons, and so on.
Activity to begin cultural self-reflection.
Chapter 2: Ethnoautobiography - Why not Autobiography?
This chapter provides more detailed explanations of ethnoautobiography. In so doing, examples from published authors—including Gerald Vizenor, Gloria Anzaldua, Paula Gunn Allen, Leslie Marmon Silko, Helene Cixous, and bell hooks—model elements of ethnoautobiographical narratives.
Activities to research ancestry and to expand on our autobiographies.
A call for Apple to make a conflict-free iPhone01/06/2012
(Parts of this post originally published by The Guardian, December 30, 2011).
While increased access to mobile technology in an undisputed advantage for many, the manufacturing process of the phones themselves negatively impacts others. Ironically, the very people targeted for increased mobile connectivity through poverty reduction schemes are also those whose lives are in jeopardy from the mining required to make electronic devices. Mobile phones require rare earth metals that are often extracted by children and slaves in conflict zones. The idea of "blood mobiles" is modeled after the well-known campaign against blood diamonds mined in African war zones and used to perpetuate conflict (Kristof, 2010).
Nathan & Sarkar (2010) shed light on the controversy over coltan, a mineral used in mobile phones (as well as computers and other devices). While coltan only makes up a very small percentage of the raw materials used in mobile phones, it is an essential component. 30% of the world's supply comes from the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), where its extraction directly sustains armed violence, child labor and poverty in one of the world's deadliest conflicts. The coltan industry finances armed rebels and has become a reason for armed conflict between groups vying for control: "An ugly paradox of the 21st century is that some of our elegant symbols of modernity — smartphones, laptops and digital cameras — are built from minerals that seem to be fueling mass slaughter and rape in Congo" (Kristof, 2010, para. 2). As activist Delly Mawazo Sesete - a native of the DRC - explains in a recent article in The Guardian, Apple is "perfectly positioned to be the first company to create a Congo conflict-free phone." Sesete explains:
While conflict began as a war over ethnic tension, land rights and politics, it has increasingly turned to being a war of profit, with various armed groups fighting one another for control of strategic mineral reserves. Near the area where I grew up, there are mines with vast amounts of tungsten, tantalum, tin, and gold – minerals that make most consumer electronics in the world function.
While minerals from the Congo have enriched your life, they have often brought violence, rape and instability to my home country. That's because those armed groups fighting for control of these mineral resources use murder, extortion and mass rape as a deliberate strategy to intimidate and control local populations, which helps them secure control of mines, trading routes and other strategic areas. Living in the Congo, I saw many of these atrocities firsthand. I documented the child slaves who are forced to work in the mines in dangerous conditions. I witnessed the deadly chemicals dumped into the local environment. I saw the use of rape as a weapon. And despite receiving multiple death threats for my work, I've continued to call for peace, development and dignity in Congo's minerals trade.
But the good news is that your favorite electronics don't have to fund mass violence and rape in the Congo, and neither do mine.
That's why I'm asking Apple to make an iPhone made with conflict-free minerals from the Congo by this time next year. Apple has been an industry leader in both supply chain management and making corporate social responsibility a priority. In the past two years, Apple has taken great strides to source minerals responsibly and control their supply chain.

Saybrook Professor George Kent lectures widely on human rights01/04/2012
This past September and October, Prof. Kent delivered lectures in five different cities, based primarily on his recent books Ending Hunger Worldwide, and Regulating Infant Formula. His lecture tour began in Norway with an invitation to speak at the University of Oslo's Centre for Development and Environment, with talks entitled "Deepening Poverty and Ill Health with Infant Formula" and "Ending Hunger Worldwide: Changing Perspectives on Food Insecurity." From Oslo, Dr. Kent traveled to the University of Ghent and Belgian Health Ministry; Corvinus University in Budapest, Hungary; Coventry, UK and finally back in the U.S. at the University of Connecticut (Storrs) delivering talks on similar themes: how to remedy social problems related to food security and nutrition.
At the University of Connecticut, Prof. Kent received a plaque recognizing his work. It reads:
"UNESCO Chair Award. Presented to George Kent. In recognition of your practical contributions to women's empowerment and to the expansion of the frontiers of human rights and to fostering global solidarity. UNESCO Chair & Institute of Comparative Human Rights. 12th Annual International Conference on Food Security and Human Rights."
Upon return to his home in Honolulu, Dr. Kent was invited to speak to the University of Hawaii's Law School, its School of Public Health, and its Department of Urban and Regional Planning.
Currently he is working on a paper called "Rights-Based Disaster Planning," which will be the basis of talks he has been invited to share this coming February at the East-West Center in Honolulu, and at a conference in March for the Pacific Rim International Conference on Disability and Diversity.
The New Zealand Lactation Consultants Association has requested Prof. Kent lecture in three cities in mid-2012. Additionally, as Co-Convener of the Commission on International Human Rights of the International Peace Research Association, he plans to participate in its meeting in Japan in November 2012. These trips to New Zealand and Japan will be Prof. Kent's 93rd and 94th international trips, representing a lifetime of work dedicated to empowering the most marginalized people.
