Since 2004, after the economy recovered from the devastating opposition oil strike, poverty has been cut by half and extreme poverty by more than 70 percent. ... read full story / add a comment

Hundreds of workers are striking against non-payment of bonuses, for an end to racism, and improved conditions at Sierra Leones largest diamond mine in Koidu. Following a blockade of the entrances and clashes with scabs, the armed forces were deployed, who opened fire on the workers, killing two and injuring many others.

The new constitution submitted to referendum by Mohamed Morsi, the president of Egypt elected with the support of the Freedom and Justice party, i.e. the political wing of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, in addition to its properties of attacking working-class achievements as well as women's and minorities rights, is preparing the legal ground for the Brotherhood to seize the whole political power in the country.

What constitutes a dictatorship? Haiti had an election in 2006, which the popular candidate won. It had an election in 2011, which had one of the lowest turnouts in recent history and which was subject to all kinds of external manipulation. Given these elections, is it unfair to call Haiti, a country that suffered 30 years of classic dictatorship under the Duvaliers from the 1950s to the 1980s, a dictatorship today? ... read full story / add a comment

The relative jubilee over Michel Martellys victory in the Haitian presidential elections after the statistical rearrangements by the Organization of American States soon after the primaries in March 2011 that had placed Martelly in second place was seen as a political intervention. Such intervention allowed him to square off against Mirlande Manigat, a conservative constitutional law professor and a former first lady who appeared distant from the social suffering of Haitians and even remotely out of date when compared to the flamboyant Martelly who was well coached and extremely ambitious to attain the pinnacle of Haitian power. ... read full story / add a comment

For over 2 weeks now, farmworkers in different areas of the Western Cape have been striking. This is a spontaneous strike driven by workers on the ground in response to decades and decades of brutality at the hands of farmers and a government that has thus far refused to listen to workers and transform the rural landscape characterised by dependency master-slave relations, racism, sexism, starvation wages and violations of the limited freedoms won from decades of working class struggle. Farmworkers do backbreaking work sometimes for 12 hours a day to produce food and wine for everybody in this country and countries overseas yet they are forced to work under unsafe and unhealthy conditions, to drink dirty water, live without electricity, live without toilet facilities, on poverty wages, suffer threats of evictions, and violent physical and verbal abuse and intimidation at the hands of the bosses.

The Arab revolutions are presenting the Left with a mixture of existential challenges and historical opportunities. The decisive factor will be the Left's ability to learn from the rich lessons of its own past experiences and vast revolutionary legacy, in order to develop its own project and role in the coming period, and to work out a coherent plan for tackling challenges ahead. May that be an occasion for the Left to move away from its penchant for lacerating self-criticism, as if there is no end to paying penance for past sins, and to embrace instead a study of the past that contributes to a better understanding of the Left's current position and role, especially in preparation for the tasks of the coming period. This also presupposes that there are elements within the Left who are ready to transcend two currents still active in their midst: a leftist current that continues to support despotic regimes on the pretext of giving priority to the national question and a leftist current that is counting on external intervention for paving the way to democracy. ... read full story / add a comment

The Leeuwenkuil farm in Agter-Paarl, Cape Town one of largest farms in the Western Cape, which produces wine and olives, is one instance of the ongoing intimidation and attacks against workers by bosses on the farms. Here, the farmer, Willie Dreyer, is denying workers rights to freedom of association and freedom of speech. The farmer has intimidated workers by dismissing shop stewards and laying false charges of attempted murder against two farm workers, Amos White and Patrick Philander, and charges of assault against CSAAWUs Assistant General Secretary, Karel Swart. The union has been denied access to the farm on weekends and after hours in the week on a number of occasions. We maintain that workers must be able to meet with any organization or person they choose to in their own time. It should not be the prerogative of the farmer to control workers own time and who they can and cannot meet. Workers and their families are standing behind their dismissed leaders. They are sharing what they have with each other their pain and their strength. ... read full story / add a comment

Celebration of Jack Grancharoff's life 16:13 Mon 20 Jun 0 comments
As many of you know, Jack 'The Anarchist' Grancharoff died on the 15th of May, at his home in Quaama, South Coast of New South Wales, Australia, aged 91. He died 'with his boots on' - he seemed to have risen from a chair, with an open book and a glass of something interesting on the table, collapsed onto the floor and was found a day or two later.
Palestine-Israel, The joint struggle continue in spite of the drop out of activists* 02:41 Wed 08 Jun 1 comments
Two consecutive Fridays without being shot at after 11 years can destabilize even long time activist like me.... For 13 years the anarchists against the wall initiative and Palestinian partners continue the struggle even when the expectation for practical gains diminished. Changes in the separation fence/wall are less likely than ever. The remaining road blocks are the ones which are not just for marginal harassments. The diminishing hardship inflicted on activists opened other personal options than struggle. However, there are still a hard core of old time activists and some new of the younger generation. The contribution of the joint struggle to gains in the international support is more obvious than ever, and even less radical joint struggles continue in parallel like Sheikh Jarakh, Taayush in the south and "militants for peace".
Palestine-Israel, The joint struggle persist in spite of burn-out of veteran activists*. 12:26 Sat 07 May 1 comments
The first years of the joint struggle against the wall had some gains that drew activists to the struggle. However, for years the continuous joint struggle have much more gains, but not on the ground for people to see with their eyes. Gradually both Palestinians and Israeli activists dropped out with not so many to replace them. Still, on the weekly demonstrations the participants - Israelis, internationals, and Palestinians are far from any thought on quitting. We see the changes in the international arena. Taste of it is brought to us by the international activists who keep coming. If the weekly demos reminded activists the activity of Sisyphus of rolling a heavy rock uphill to the summit just to have it down again, it is clear to any one who see the whole picture that the rolling of the rock uphill again and again is decimating the hill and may be we are not so far from the last rolling of the rock up the hill.

If we want peace, we must follow the example of the workers and worker-soldiers who ended WWI. We must build a working class movement which spans across frontiers and cuts the ground out from under the capitalist governments that have no solution for international problems but war. We must make a workers' revolution and overthrow capitalism. And only then will we be able to build a world of liberty, equality and solidarity a world at peace.

Palestine-Israel, New people join, some veterans left, pressures intensify... but the joint struggle... 17:13 Sat 02 Apr 0 comments
Last Friday (1.4) lot of anarchist flags again in Bil'in challenging the new efforts to put end to the Friday demos in the village. The long range tear gas cannisters prevent any interaction with the Israeli soldiers and stoped the demonstrators from exiting the village - like in the demonstrations in Bil'in eleven years ago before the intense efforts to put end to the demonstrations was replace with the contention of them; and like in the other locations - Ni'ilin, Nebi Saleh, and Qaddum where the efforts to put end to the demonstrations intensify. (So are with out the success the intense efforts to strangle the south of Hebron hills activities with other means.) People with keen ears can already hear the beginning of the countdown towards the end of the imperial settler colonial project in the East of the Mediterranean sea. May be the acceleration of the process is the result of the accumulation of the fiascos of Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, and Libya...
Palestine-Israel, The joint struggle continue in spite of the huge changes in the region* 03:28 Thu 17 Mar 1 comments
On the twelfth year of joined struggle in Bil'in it lost its glamour. Many of the activists lost the excitement of the direct action confrontation which is not a new thing any more. The expansion of the joint struggle to other locations and the expanding of the non armed struggle in the west bank contributed to it too. Many of the activists just "moved on" to a less intensive ways of life. But, some old time activists can not "let go". The other day, I searched the http://archive.org/web/ for the old site of: "This appeal, the first to call on-line for a boycott against Israel, was posted in April of 2001".(http://matzpun.com)... and read again our 35 original signatories of this pre-BDS. The majority are still in the struggle. Looking back on my 65 years of struggle I regard ainfos.ca, this petition, the joint struggle in Bil'in and my stories from the year 2100 - 50 years after the revolution* as the most significant ones.
Making sense of the Brexit tide of reaction and the reality of the racist vote Jun 28 1 comments
The Leave / Brexit vote in the referendum came in the end as a surprise, a narrow win for Remain was expected. This may be because the core Leave vote was in the run-down white working class communities of the now desolate English and Welsh industrial zones. A population trapped in conditions of long-term unemployment and poverty who no one really pays much attention to anymore. Some on the left have seized on the makeup of this core vote to suggest that there was some progressive element to the Brexit vote despite the campaign being led by racist hatemongers and wealthy US-oriented neoliberals. Mostly that's a mixture of wishful thinking and post hoc justification for having called for a Leave vote in the first place, but it is true that a section of the working class, C2DEs in marketing speak, voted to Leave in close to a 2:1 ratio. Is the class composition of that vote enough to automatically make it progressive regardless of content? And what does it tell us that a section of the radical left seems to think the answer to that question is yes, that it is enough to be anti-establishment?

Since 9th of March, across the French territory, an important and combative social-class struggle is taking place against the labor law by which the French Government attempts to impose a total restructuring of labor relations. By constant squatting in schools, colleges and public buildings, through reappropriation of public spaces on a daily level, with strikes and sit-ins in factories and in conflict with the forces of repression, French society ‒ especially the youth ‒ holds strong resistance against the attack unleashed by the bosses and the State.more >>

International Womens Day is a day when the womens movement around the world celebrates social, political and other achievements of women. It is also a good day for women to take a closer look at the oppression that flourishes through the double bondage of capitalism and patriarchy, and which is still an unfortunate and undeniable reality for the majority of women today.

New activism will urge diversity

Opinion & Analysis
Tower Investments boss Sam Stubbs likes to create a good headline.
OPINION: Last week, with financial news yet to gear up for the year, he found journalists paying more than usual attention to his presentation at Tower's first media briefing of 2013.
The fund manager convenes these pow-wows quarterly. The opinions expressed are the world according to Tower, so must be taken for what they are, but a chance to chew over the issues with people who spend their days at the investment coalface is always welcome.
Of course, the briefings are also designed to make sure Tower gets its fair share of publicity, and Stubbs is never backward in coming forward.
This time he claimed that the sharemarket is showing the first signs of a bubble forming. Almost everyone else in the market disagreed with him, but the headline was assured.
However, it also edged out coverage of another point he made. Stubbs predicts that this will be the year of the shareholder activist, largely due to KiwiSaver.
The government retirement savings scheme now has two million members and over $14 billion in funds under management. The entire New Zealand sharemarket was worth $66b at the end of last year.
In other words, KiwiSaver funds are going to hold progressively larger stakes in New Zealand companies, and they are going to want to have a say about the way they are run.
The quality of governance in Kiwi corporations is lower than it should be, precisely because there hasn't been that activism, Stubbs believes.
Tower, a KiwiSaver provider, plans to be a lot more vocal about issues such as directors who have been in the job too long, and who are not adding value.
This will include diversity, Stubbs says. Tower's position is that a board made up almost exclusively of older white male directors does not add value because it does not represent the customer base the business aims to serve.
Fewer than 10 per cent of directors serving on the boards of New Zealand's top 100 companies are women. There is hope this will change now that the NZX has followed in the footsteps of its Australian counterpart, introducing rules requiring companies to report on how many women they have at the top of their organisations.
But an attitudinal shift has to occur first, and I have yet to be convinced that the "male, pale and stale" crew are on the bandwagon.
In Deloitte's Director 360: Degrees of Progress survey released late last year, 60 per cent of Kiwi directors polled said their boards had introduced diversity policies. Yet just 20 per cent said they were concerned about maintaining gender diversity.
Admittedly, it was an international study and the New Zealand sample was small. But after all the talk, committees, reports and mentoring programmes, it's a worrying indicator.
Stubbs says Tower will be choosing its battles, and while some debates over a company's performance will be conducted in public, there will be many more conversations going on in private.
Let's hope so. Retailer Hallenstein Glasson Holdings - a company with a large female customer base - still has just one woman on its board following the appointment of Glenys Shearer this month.
Shearer, who spent 28 years with the Just Jeans retail chain and brought the brand to New Zealand, will no doubt be an able addition to the team. But there is ample international research which shows that having just one woman on a board is not enough to shift its perspective.
Perhaps a bit of shareholder agitation is what it will take to finally create significant movement on the diversity issue.

Letters on Sweden, Norway, and Denmarkby Mary Wollstonecraft
View All Available Formats & Editions
Mary Wollstonecraft (1759-1797) was an eighteenthcentury British writer, philosopher, and feminist. During her brief career, she wrote novels, treatises, a travel narrative, a history of the French Revolution, a conduct book, and a children's book. Wollstonecraft is best known for A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1792), in which she argues that women are not naturally inferior to men, but appear to be only because they lack education. She suggests that both men and women should be treated as rational beings and imagines a social order founded on reason. The majority of her early productions centre around the topic of education; she assembled an anthology of literary extracts "for the improvement of young women" entitled The Female Reader. Her other works include Thoughts on the Education of Daughters (1787), Mary: A Fiction (1788), Original Stories from Real Life (1791), Letters on Sweden, Norway, and Denmark (1796), Maria; or, The Wrongs of Woman (1798), and Posthumous Works of the Author of A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1798).

Trauma exposure, posttraumatic stress disorder and the effect of explanatory variables in paramedic trainees
Emergency healthcare workers, including trainees and individuals in related occupations are at heightened risk of developing posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and depression owing to work-related stressors.
We aimed to investigate the type, frequency, and severity of direct trauma exposure, posttraumatic stress symptoms and other psychopathology amongst paramedic trainees. In order to create a risk profile for individuals who are at higher occupational risk of developing PTSD, we examined risk and resilience factors that possibly contributed to the presence and severity of posttraumatic symptomatology.
Paramedic trainees (n = 131) were recruited from a local university. A logistic regression analysis was conducted using the explanatory variables age, gender, population group, trauma exposure, depression, alcohol abuse, alcohol dependence, resilience and social support.
94% of paramedic trainees had directly experienced trauma, with 16% meeting PTSD criteria. A high rate of depression (28%), alcohol abuse (23%) and chronic perceived stress (7%) and low levels of social support was found. The number of previous trauma exposures, depression, resilience and social support significantly predicted PTSD status and depression had a mediating effect.
There is a need for efficient, ongoing screening of depressive and PTSD symptomatology in trauma exposed high risk groups so that early psychological supportive interventions can be offered.
Emergency Care Workers (ECW), for example police officers, fire fighters, rescue and disaster workers, military personnel and ambulance personnel, are at a higher occupational risk of developing posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) owing to their repeated exposure to critical incidents
A South African study that investigated the relationship between exposure to critical incidents and prevalence of mental health problems among emergency medical care personnel (including traffic police, fire services, ambulance staff, and sea and air rescue workers) found that symptoms of anxiety, depression or PTSD intensified when exposure to critical incidents increased
Comorbidity is another factor that may predispose ECW to subsequent PTSD. For example, in a UK study, researchers found that 10% of the 574 emergency medical care workers included in their study were suffering from clinical levels of depression and 22% met PTSD criteria
Several mitigating factors for PTSD in emergency workers and trainees have been identified. For example, social support following a traumatic incident has been found to be protective against PTSD
ECW are exposed to living individuals who are seriously injured or dying and, as such, are exposed to human pain and suffering
The purpose of this study was firstly to assess and determine the frequency, nature and severity of direct trauma exposure, posttraumatic stress symptoms and other psychopathology amongst paramedic trainees. Secondly, the study aimed to identify risk factors (e.g. trauma exposure) and resilience factors (e.g. social support) that contribute to the presence and severity of posttraumatic symptomatology amongst paramedic trainees. Thirdly, the study aimed to create a risk profile for paramedic trainees who are at higher occupational risk of developing PTSD.
Participants and procedure
A hundred and thirty one paramedic trainees participated in the study. Data were collected between 2008 and 2011. Participants were recruited from a university in the Western Cape with the aid and permission of their supervisors. All the participants were first year paramedic trainees. During their first year of study, trainees gain practical experience in the field and are exposed to accident scenes and critical incidents.
The study was approved by the Health Research Ethics Committee at Stellenbosch University, Cape Town, South Africa (N06/02/037). Informed consent was obtained from participants before assessment commenced. Two researchers (a psychiatry resident and research psychologist) conducted the assessments. Participants were assessed with a battery of questionnaires including a demographic questionnaire as well as several measures of psychiatric and psychological status.
Life Events Checklist (LEC)
Trauma exposure was measured using the Life Events Checklist (LEC), a questionnaire from the Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale for DSM-IV (CAPS)
Davidson Trauma Scale (DTS)
The Davidson Trauma Scale (DTS) assesses the frequency and severity of PTSD symptoms according to PTSD criteria in the DSM-IV-TR, and has been used as a symptom status measure in various populations
Centre for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D)
Participants were screened for depression with the Centre for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). The CES-D has a 5-point Likert scale. Scores on all items are added together. A score of 16 or more indicates possible depression i.e. a score of 16 or more is the cut-off for depression. The scale has very good reliability, with a Cronbach's alpha value of 0.85 in the general population and 0.90 in a psychiatric population
Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT)
The Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT) was used to identify participants with problematic alcohol use. It consists of 10 items relating to alcohol usage and responses are rated on a 5-point Likert scale. A score of 8 or higher indicates possible alcohol abuse. This scale has shown good reliability and validity, and has been tested in various cultures
Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-15)
The Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-15) was used to assess participants' perceptions of their physical health. Responses are measured on a 3-point Likert scale. This 15-item questionnaire has a cut-off score of 15 or more for high symptom severity, and has displayed good internal reliability with a Cronbach's alpha value of 0.80
Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10)
The 10-item Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) was used to assess participants' perceptions of stress. It is a 10-item questionnaire measured on a 4-point Likert scale and has good reliability and validity
Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS)
The degree of social support was measured with the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS) which measures participants' own perception of social support. The questionnaire consists of 12 items relating to support from family, friends, or a significant other, and is rated on a 7-point Likert scale. It has good reliability, factorial validity as well as construct validity
Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC)
The Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) is a 25-item questionnaire with each item scored on a 5-point Likert scale. The scale measures resilience based on five factors: (1) personal competence, high standards and tenacity; (2) trust in one's own instincts, tolerance of negative affect and strengthening effects of stress; (3) social support; (4) control and; (5) spiritual influences e.g. faith
Data analysis
The data were analysed using SPSS, version 20. Frequencies and score means were obtained for demographic variables, and reliability tests were conducted for each scale to obtain a Cronbach's alpha value
Sample demographics
Participants were mainly of White (47%) and Coloured (33%; the term Coloured is a demographic marker that historically denotes South Africans of African, European and/or Asian ancestry) population groups and were predominantly male (64%). The mean age of participants were 22 (range: 17–39). The majority of participants were not married (92%). The demographic characteristics and prevalence of psychiatric disorders are presented in Table
Data screening
Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests were used to determine the normality distribution of the data. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests were significant for the variables PTSD, depression, alcohol abuse, physical health status, perceived stress and level of exposure indicating that the data for these variables were not normally distributed. Resilience was the only variable with a non-significant Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistic and therefore the only normally distributed variable. Mann–Whitney tests and logistic regression, methods not dependent on normal distribution, were therefore used to analyse the data.
Cronbach's alpha for the DTS indicated excellent reliability (α = 0.96). Other scales also yielded excellent reliability: the CD-RISC (α = 0.92), the MSPSS (α = 0.93), CES-D (α = 0.91) and AUDIT (α = 0.87). The PSS-10 and the PHQ had alpha values of 0.75 and 0.78, respectively, which are regarded as acceptable
Trauma exposure and PTSD status
The majority of participants (94%) had directly experienced a lifetime traumatic event. Traumatic events that were directly experienced were incidents that had either happened to the participant or had been witnessed. The most commonly endorsed traumas were witnessing a transport accident (53%), sudden unexpected death of someone close (51%), witnessing someone suffering from a life-threatening illness/injury (51%), witnessing a fire/explosion (39%), and being the victim of a physical assault (33%). Among those with PTSD, the most commonly endorsed trauma was witnessing a transport accident (n = 15, 65%).
Mental health, physical health and PTSD status
High prevalence rates were found for PTSD (16%), depression (28%), alcohol abuse (24%) and alcohol dependence (8%). Participants meeting PTSD criteria had significantly higher levels of trauma exposure
Predictors of PTSD status
Multivariate logistic regression was used to assess explanatory variables of PTSD. The regression model included demographic variables and mental health variables, with PTSD status as the dependent variable. The following variables were entered into the first regression model: age, gender, population group and number of total previous trauma exposures. In model 2 alcohol abuse, alcohol dependence, perceived stress and depression where added to the demographic variables and trauma exposure in model 1. Model 3 contained the variables used in model 1 and model 2 with the addition of social support and resilience. In model 1, with only the demographic variables and trauma exposure included to assess their effects on PTSD status, only number of previous trauma exposures significantly predicted PTSD status (
The main findings of this study can be summarised as follows: paramedic trainees had high rates of PTSD, depression and trauma exposure (based on self-reported symptoms). Participants meeting criteria for PTSD had significantly higher rates of depression, perceived stress and physical health symptoms and significantly lower rates of resilience and social support. Higher rates of trauma exposure and depression and lower rates of social support and resilience were significant predictors of PTSD. Depression had a mediating effect on the relationship between trauma exposure and PTSD. These finding mirrors prior research
Paramedic trainees had high rates of trauma exposure, both related (e.g. witnessing a transport accident) and unrelated (e.g. being a victim of physical assault) to work. Trauma exposure that is unrelated to work, including childhood exposure to violence, abuse and neglect, may influence career choice among paramedics. A high rate (38.4%) of physical, sexual and emotional abuse was found in a sample of Canadian veteran paramedics
16% of paramedic trainees met symptom criteria for PTSD. The rate of current PTSD is considerably higher than the 12 month prevalence rate of 0.6% among South Africans (based on lay administered structural interview)
The current study also found high rates of depression among paramedic trainees (28%). Depression was a significant predictor of PTSD and had a mediating effect between trauma exposure and PTSD status. In a study of disaster workers 16% of workers developed depression seven months after work-related trauma exposure
Rates of alcohol abuse were similarly high with 24% of paramedic trainees meeting criteria for abuse. Twelve month prevalence rates of alcohol abuse in the South African general population have been estimated at 4.5% and 11.1 for life-time prevalence in the age group 18–34 (based on a lay administered structured interview)
In a Brazilian study it was found that ambulance workers with PTSD had significantly poorer physical and mental health than workers without PTSD
Overall, resilience and social support were predictors of PTSD status. We measured social support with regards to three areas of personal contact – family, friends and a significant other. Social support may be conceptualised on three tiers, namely support by family and friends (tier one), support by community and religious organisations (tier two) and support by formal services such as the police (tier three)
Strengths and limitations
Some limitations deserve mention. Since the measures employed were self-report questionnaires, the responses reflect the participants' perceptions and not clinician or trained lay interviewer diagnoses. The use of self-report measures may have inflated the frequency of psychiatric disorders found in this sample. Participants reported experiencing traumas unrelated to their occupation which may have contributed to PTSD symptomatology. The large number of questionnaires administered in one sitting could have caused participant fatigue and this may have influenced the accuracy of the results. The study was also cross-sectional in design which precludes causal inferences and measurement of symptom change over time. The cross-sectional design also limits the interpretation of the mediation analysis. We cannot determine if the mediating effect is due to comorbidity (e.g. depression and PTSD) or if there is a temporal sequence of events (e.g. trauma leads to depression and depression leads to PTSD).
Several aspects of the sample distinguish this study from previous research. While studies have investigated PTSD among paramedic staff in South Africa, none, to our knowledge, have investigated predictors of PTSD among paramedic trainees. Trauma exposure is common among paramedic staff and trainees are particularly vulnerable to the adverse effects associated with trauma exposure, due to a lack of experience. Early identification and treatment of PTSD is important to prevent chronic PTSD and the debilitating effects thereof. The homogeneity of the sample is an added strength as there have been few studies on risk factors for PTSD that focus on specific trauma types and at-risk populations. Future studies could compare the effects of trauma frequency and repeated same-trauma exposures on mental and physical health outcomes in paramedic trainees and practising, experienced paramedics, as well as include other occupation groups, such as police officers and fire fighters.
In conclusion, there is a need to better understand risk and mitigating factors for PTSD in high-risk occupational groups. The results of this study indicate that paramedic trainees have high rates of PTSD and those who meet PTSD criteria have higher rates of perceived stress and depression, lower rates of social support and resilience, and poorer physical health, which can be detrimental to overall health. The study findings also suggest that depression is a mediating factor for PTSD and social support and resilience are significant predictors of PTSD.
The need for efficient screening of PTSD and depression symptomatology in trauma-exposed high risk groups needs to be emphasized so that targeted psychological and supportive interventions, initiated early and continued over time, can be offered. Paramedic trainees who have been exposed to multiple traumas and who have poor social support and resilience may be in need of preventative psychotherapeutic interventions in the workplace to offset the development of PTSD and other psychiatric sequelae. While paramedic trainees may need additional support, it should be noted that they were exposed to work-related traumatic events over a relatively short time period. With the passage of time and accumulation of experience, these trainees may show adequate psychological adjustment in this setting. These results are arguably generalisable to paramedic trainees beyond South Africa as these occupational groups bear many similarities with regards to work-related trauma, regardless of setting.

From Woodland rivals to future teammates
Pelkofer, Molter earn NOW hoops honors, off to Carroll
When Dave Buchanan returned to the area to take over as head men's basketball coach at Carroll University, he had a pretty good idea where he was going to spend some time mining talent.
The former Greenfield Hustlin' Hawks coach has remained friends with several of the Woodland Conference coaches he matched wits with for five years. Heck, his former assistant Jim Nowak is running his old program. And Buchanan knows just what he'd be getting if he finds talent in the league he once won with the Hawks.
"Year in and year out, there will always be quality basketball players that are always well-coached and that are underrated," Buchanan said. "Eisenhower won state a few years back. So did New Berlin West. You know that you can trust the feedback from the coaches. The coaches there all know what kind of student-athlete I'm looking for and the kind of program we're running, and we have and always will keep our eye on that conference for talented players."
Archrivals become teammates
Buchanan's second recruiting class at Carroll will include two such gems: Greenfield's Alec Molter and Whitnall's Will Pelkofer, a pair of seniors that have been named to the 2010 NOW All-Suburban Boys Basketball Team.
The 6-foot Pelkofer averaged a NOW-area best 23.4 points per game to go along with 3.3 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 2.5 steals. He was the only player on his team to average more than 8.8 points per game. Just miles down the road, Molter, 6-6, similarly carried the load for Hawks. His 16.1 points per game was almost double any of his teammates' season averages.
The players were not friends prior to committing to Carroll, but now consider themselves acquaintances and will room together next fall.
"The Whitnall-Greenfield rivalry will find a common ground," Buchanan said. "It will be neat for them to be teammates and roommates as opposed to archrivals. They get to play together as opposed to plotting and scheming against each other.
"And in both players cases, you see two young men that are just scratching the surface of what they can do."
Pelkofer's varsity legacy
Pelkofer, the Woodland Black Division co-player of the year, is the more seasoned of the two, having spent his entire four-year high school career on the varsity. The determined and athletic guard was the only player in the NOW coverage area to surpass 1,000 career points (1,166) and at least the second to do so in school history, joining his cousin Jarrod Pelkofer, who tallied 1,464 through 2004.
"We used to play all the time," Will Pelkofer said of his cousin. "When I was a little kid, I used to work with him in the backyard. He (and Will's father) taught me all the tricks of the trade to make me a better basketball player."
Those tricks included a propensity to make tough shots in the lane, range matched by few players in the area, and a knack to be as disruptive on defense as he is explosive on offense.
"I said last year that I thought he was going to be one of the best seniors in the area," Whitnall coach Kent Kroupa said. "That bore out to be true. He's got the heart of a champion. He's got a perfect first name: Will. He's got will, he's got desire, he's got heart. It's a perfect first name for him."
Pelkofer will be attending Carroll to become a nurse practitioner and believes he has a good opportunity to play for Buchanan quickly. Buchanan was impressed with Pelkofer's total game.
"He shoots the ball very well but will surprise you by going off the dribble and dunking the ball, and everything in between," Buchanan said. "It's nice to see that completeness at such a young age.
"The other thing that impresses about Will is his motor. He plays hard the entire game. Just playing with a constant energy is very impressive. He's only going to get better."
Molter's sudden rise
Molter's ascension was a bit more rapid. After averaging 9.7 points per game as a junior, the skilled big man turned into a complete player on both ends of the court, boosting his scoring average by 6.4 points while also blocking 5.2 shots per game and pulling down 11.5 rebounds, one of just three players in the NOW area to average a double-double.
"Alec might be one of the most improved players in the whole state," Buchanan said. "At first, he was just playing basketball because he was big, but his ability to block shots, change shots and his post moves - he has a tremendous future, a big-time upside and he's a big strong kid that can be a dominant post player in our conference."
Molter, a first-team all-Woodland Black Division selection, was also popular among area hoops enthusiasts. For the first time ever, fans were able to help select the NOW team via online voting. Molter was the highest vote-getter with 385.
"I kind of marketed myself," Molter said. "I told a couple of my close friends and they spread the word. I told my family and they voted a lot. People were coming up to me in the hall saying, 'Hey, I'm voting for you.' It was pretty cool."
Molter, who will play baseball at Carroll as well, hopes to add more muscle to his large frame before hitting the court for Buchanan's Pioneers.
"I'm going to have to get a lot stronger and bigger," Molter said. "I'm a big guy and I'm not very fast. I never have been all my life. I want to get bigger and faster, and hopefully I can be unstoppable on the college level. That's my goal."

Mr. Soul Lyrics
Artist: Rush
Album: Feedback
[Originally by Buffalo Springfield]
Oh, hello, Mr. Soul, I dropped by to pick up a reason
For the thought that I caught that my head is the event of the season
Why in crowds just a trace of my face could seem so pleasin'
I'll cop out to the change, but a stranger is putting the tease on
I was down on a frown when the messenger brought me a letter
I was raised by the praise of a fan who said I upset her
Any girl in the world could have easily known me better
She said you're strange, but don't change, and I let her
In a while, will the smile on my face turn to plaster
Stick around while the clown who is sick does the trick of disaster
For the race of my head and my face is moving much faster
Is it strange I should change I don't know, why don't you ask her [4x]

In light of an outbreak of pertussis (whooping cough) in Wisconsin, the North Shore Health Department is recommending individuals to receive vaccination.
Between January 1 and May 31 of this year, there have been 206 confirmed cases of pertussis in Milwaukee County, up from 16 in the same time period in 2011. Pertussis begins with cold-like symptoms and can progress to explosive coughing that can interrupt breathing, eating and sleeping.
People of all ages are able to contract pertussis, though infants are particularly vulnerable.
"It's especially a problem for infants," said NSHD Public Health Nurse Randie Parks. "Half of them require hospitalization and some of them die."
NSHD urges individuals to check their immunization status and visit their health care providers if they have not received a pertussis immunization.
Residents can call (414) 371-2980 for more information regarding immunizations from NSHD, which also has vaccines available.

ESPN has been using Outbrain as a cheap way to drive web traffic on its posts. Some of the recommended links from around the web are, well, interesting. Outbrain seems to be doing too good a job pinpointing what might interest ESPN's audience. Above you have Miley Cyrus' "Itty Bitty Workout Outfits." Below you have "Celebrity Bikinis: 2012" and "British Gold Medalist Jessica Ennis Hot Body Pictures." Or perhaps the Demi-Bra vs. Full Coverage debate might strike your fancy? Who can deny that Bills' safety George Wilson is eye candy? Yes, the Sandusky article does lead you to an advice link about cheating on your spouse. Enjoy the fun, before this gets rectified.

|IG Butler
DateLine: 23rd June 2009
Lowerhouse have signed New Zealand all rounder Ian Butler on a short term deal. Butler will act as Lowerhouse professional for the next eight games of the season.
 Butler, who represents Northern Districts back in New Zealand is fresh from the T20 World Cup. He is a right arm quick bowler and right handed batsmen. He has played in 8 Test Matches, 18 One Day Internationals and 8 T20 internationals. He boasts an impressive test match bowling average of 36.83 with a best of 6/46 against Pakistan.
 The 27 year-old has been selected for the New Zealand Squad that will tour Sri Lanka from mid August but is available until he departs.
 Cricket Chairman Stan Heaton said: �We have had a few problems with professionals this year. We have signed three quality players who�s contracts we have had to terminate for either injury or international commitments. Obtaining quality sub professionals particularly for Saturday matches has also been an issue and I would like to place on record my thanks to MD David Wren who has worked tirelessly day in day out to try and find the very best sub professionals. We are now delighted to have some continuity with Ian. His attitude and commitment was first class on Saturday and we are sure he will do a good job for us. Our young side has done very well this season despite the professional problems and we hope Ian will help us to continue and enhance our progress�.
