In this Issue
The ABS CURF release programme stepped up a gear this month with the release of new editions of three existing CURFs. In all cases these new editions include new information. See the New CURF releases section below for more information.
ABS has released an updated version of the Step by Step Guide to include assistance in writing up your statistical purpose when applying for CURFs. Researchers have asked us to provide more detailed help in this area so as well as updating the Step by Step Guide we have updated our Statistical Purpose FAQ .
This Newsletter also flags further upcoming improvements to the CURF Microdata web pages happening over the next few months. We will welcome your feedback on these changes and will, indeed, be soon seeking input into these developments, as they progress, from representative clients.
We are always looking for ways that we can improve our service to you. We have a number of such developments underway that we anticipate announcing in coming editions of CURF Microdata News. As ever, we warmly welcome your thoughts about how we can help to make your experiences using ABS CURF Microdata more fulfilling.
Grant Mitchell
Its only May and there have already been several new and highly anticipated CURFs released this year, all of which are listed on our List of Available CURFs web page. As always, the advertised release date is indicative only and may change.
Please note that there has been a change to the release of the Census 2006 Basic and Expanded CURFs, now due for release on 25 August 2008.
You can stay up to date with all CURF releases by visiting our List of Expected CURFs web page or by subscribing to Email Alerts for CURFs through the free ABS Email Notification Service.
This is the third edition of this CURF combining unit record data (microdata) from the Household Expenditure Survey (HES) and the Survey of Income and Housing (SIH). It differs from the second edition only in that new experimental estimates of imputed rent have been added to the household level microdata. These new estimates are derived from the survey microdata in conjunction with other data. This CURF is available free of charge to those with access to the previous edition. An Undertaking form will be required. Please see the REQ3 form required for new CURF editions section below.
For more information about this CURF see Household Expenditure Survey and Survey of Income and Housing - Confidentialised Unit Record Files, Technical Manual, 2003-04 (Third edition) (cat. no. 6540.0.00.001).
Income and Housing Survey (2005-06) Second Edition, Basic and Expanded CURF. Released 1 May 2008.
This is the second edition of the file and includes experimental estimates of imputed rent on the household level file. These new estimates are derived from the survey microdata in conjunction with other data. In addition to incorporating the imputed rent estimates, the second edition corrects some minor errors that were on the first edition of the CURF. This CURF is available free of charge to those with access to the previous edition. An Undertaking form will be required. Please see the REQ3 form required for new CURF editions section below.
For more detail about these revisions, refer to page 4 of Survey of Income and Housing - Confidentialised Unit Record Files, Technical Manual, 2005-06 (Second edition) (cat. no. 6541.0).
This is an Expanded CURF providing data from the 2006/2007 Family Characteristics Survey. The survey collects statistics on the composition of families and households, especially characteristics of children such as age, sex and step relationships. Some of the issues covered include marital status; labour force status; and visiting arrangements for children with parents living elsewhere. Additional data on various aspects of family transitions and history is also presented for persons aged 18 years and over. New topics include parent's relationship history, experiences of leaving the parental home, registered and de facto marriage history, children ever born and fertility expectations.
More detailed information will be available in the CURF Technical Manual which will be released along with this CURF.
You are invited!
"NatStats08 will give you an opportunity to meet with a wide range of key players involved in the production and use of the official data that informs and shapes a great deal of public and private policy and investment decisions across our nation." Please see the Australian Statistician's invitation at http://www.nss.gov.au/natstats/natstatshome.nsfCURF Tool Kits
The CURF Microdata web pages will soon be reshaped to include a number of 'CURF Tool Kits', each focussed on helping you to more easily find the CURF information you need. There will a Kit for CURF users, one for Contact Officers, one for Responsible Officers and so on. We hope these Tool Kits will make finding the information a breeze.
For example, the CURF Responsible Officer Tool Kit will lead you to information on the role and responsibilities of someone occupying that position. It will also provide links to the Responsible Officer Undertaking form and to information about annual Renewals and FAQs.
All Tool Kits will be available on a reshaped CURF Microdata Entry page. They are the first of a series of website developments aimed at improving your access to CURF related information and assistance.
REQ3 form required for new CURF editions
If you are already an approved User for one or more of the following CURFs and you wish to obtain the latest edition, you will need to complete a 'Request For Access To A CURF form' (REQ3) specific to the CURF that you require. These forms have been sent to your CURF Contact Officer to distribute to you.
The CURFs are:
Housing Expenditure Survey, 2003-04, Second Edition, Basic and Expanded CURF
Survey of Income and Housing, 2003-04 Second Edition, Basic and Expanded CURF
Survey of Income and Housing, 2005-06, Basic and Expanded CURF (the Expanded format has special conditions that require separate signing off. You can obtain a Special Conditions sign off form from your CURF Contact Officer)
Once complete, please pass your applications back to your CURF Contact Officer who will forward them to us for processing.
This will involve no additional cost to your organisation if you are already an approved user of these CURFs.
Keep up to date with new CURF releases by viewing the List of Available CURFs.
Step By Step Guide. Version 3 to be released in June
Managing ABS CURFs: a step by step guide (cat. no. 1406.0.55.004) has been updated.
The new version includes a new flow chart giving you an overview of the steps required to apply for a CURF. This provides a graphical map on how to apply for CURFs and can serve as a checklist – useful even for those who have submitted applications before.
The glossary has also been expanded to cover more terms used in the Guide; 'Steps for CURF Contact Officers' has been made clearer and simpler to follow; and revisions to many sections of text to help increase readability.
The Step By Step Guide will be distributed with all new approved CURF applications, and it is recommended that the new version be downloaded to replace your previous copy.
Once released, Version 3 will be available on the ABS website at Managing ABS Confidentialised Unit Record Files (CURFs): A Step by Step Guide, 2007 (cat. no. 1406.0.55.004).
RADL Passwords must not be shared. Access to CURFs is granted on an individual basis and sharing your unique RADL password breaches the conditions of the Undertaking you signed when applying for access to each CURF.
Breaching these conditions may lead to withdrawal of your and, perhaps, your organisation's access to CURFs.
Everyone accessing a CURF must have signed a relevant Undertaking, even where their use of the microdata is in support of another approved user.
For more information on this matter, please see the Frequently Asked Questions page - Can I share CURFs with other people?
More examples of Statistical Purposes and Outputs are now available to help you prepare your Request for Access to a CURF (REQ1) form.
Clearly expressed Statistical Purposes help the Australian Statistician to ensure ABS CURFs are being used appropriately. This facilitates our approval of your request for access.
Please see 'What is meant by 'Statistical Purpose' on the application forms?'

pearlie harris center for breast health
131 Commonwealth Drive, Suite 220
Greenville, SC 29615
The Pearlie Harris Center for Breast Health® brings the most advanced
breast imaging technology available together in one place with an expert
staff that offers compassionate, convenient care and rapid results. Our
Breast Health Center is fully accredited by both the National Accreditation
for Breast Centers (NAPBC) and the American College of Radiology, along with several other breast imaging accreditations from the American College of Radiologists.
Our new facility was created from the ground up with our patients in mind. We offer the most advanced breast imaging equipment available – like digital mammography, breast MRI and computer-aided detection systems – along with an expert staff and little luxuries that make your experience a pleasant one.
The center even comes with a new symbol, a symbol of hope. The new icon, at the left, has many layers of meaning. The pearls are in honor of our namesake, Pearlie Harris. The infinity design represents our neverending commitment to stand by our patients with faith, love and support. Turned on its side, the design resembles the number 8, symbolizing the 1 in 8 women who will be affected by breast cancer.
our team
We have assembled a talented staff of board-certified physicians, technologists, nurses and navigators who specialize in breast imaging and are dedicated to caring only for breast imaging patients.
Our technologists, nurses and navigators are all women themselves – many of which have experienced breast disease in their own families. This gives them insight into the anxieties and emotions you may experience and they are prepared to offer the compassion and support that you may need.
The radiologists who interpret breast imaging studies are all board certified and have completed five years of specialized training in radiology. Many have completed additional years of training in radiology subspecialties, including breast imaging.
Our Breast Health Navigators are available at no cost to patients who have abnormal results from their mammograms. They offer education and emotional support to ensure our patients know all of their options and understand exactly what to expect during their testing and treatment.
St. Francis holds Multidisciplinary Team Meetings that are attended by surgeons, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, radiologists, pathologists, our Breast Health Navigators and Genetic Counselor, and nurses who meet weekly to discuss patients whose tests come back with a positive result for cancer. They review each case as a team, agreeing upon the best course of treatment prior to surgery. In effect, our patients receive a first, second and third opinion all at the same time for free.
our technology
The Pearlie Harris Center for Breast Health is committed to continuously providing our patients with the best breast imaging options available. We were the first to bring full field digital mammography to the Upstate, and we continue to seek out the newest technology that will increase the accuracy of our tests and comfort of our patients. In addition to digital mammography, we also offer breast MRI and ultrasound and are fully equipped with the technology needed to perform needle and stereotactic breast biopsies.
Having all of this technology in one place means convenience and speed for our patients. If an abnormal mammogram requires more testing, all of the tests can be done in one place, often at the same time.
convenience and comfort
You can expect to get an appointment within one week of calling to schedule your mammogram, and be in and out in about 30 minutes. For added convenience we've extended our hours to 7 a.m. - 7 p.m., Monday-Saturday. To schedule a mammogram, call 864-675-4875.
who is Pearlie Harris?
The Center for Breast Health is named in honor of Pearlie Harris for her endless dedication to making a difference and extending her personal mission of faith, hope and help to those in need.
After earning her undergraduate degree at Barber Scotia College and a Master's degree in Education from Furman, Pearlie touched the lives of countless children through her 37-year career in Greenville County Schools. When it was time to retire from the classroom, Pearlie knew she did not want to be idle. She wanted to find a way to help her community and extend her personal mission of faith, help and hope.
Those came together with a commitment to St. Francis. She began as a volunteer, then served as Eucharistic Minister, and then was asked to serve on the St. Francis Foundation Board, sharing her wisdom and community knowledge. In 2009, Pearlie served as Chair of the Board of Directors for St. Francis Health System – the first African-American and the first woman to serve in that role.
In addition to the vast support she has lent St. Francis, she also has been instrumental in leading the Greenville Mardi Gras Gala, a signature event which raises thousands of dollars for critical needs throughout the Upstate; has served on the board of St. Joseph's High School for more than a decade; served two years as President of St. Mary's Woman's Club and has given leadership to boards of Urban League, Operation ShoeHorn, Greenville Chorale and Greenville Symphony. In recognition of the vast contributions that she continues to make, Pearlie was recently named Catholic Woman of the Year for St. Mary's Church, Greenville.
We are honored to share Pearlie's name. She inspires all of us at the Center for Breast Health to live up to her incredible legacy of leading and loving her community.

The northeast pillar of Aguja Guillaumet is perched 5,000 feet above the Río Eléctrico valley, overlooking Patagonia's Fitz Roy massif. The route climbs a steep pillar of wind-sculpted golden granite; its pockets and steep cracks would fulfill anybody's expectations. Eduardo Brenner, a well-loved Argentine climber, did the first ascent in 1981. In February 2008, Adrian Falcone, a former Park ranger and good friend, turned 50. He had lived below these peaks for 20 years but had yet to climb any of the granite summits that crown the range. Guillaumet seemed like a perfect birthday present.
Adrian, Mati and I leave Chalten past midnight, dancing to the base, drunk with the lightness I feel when going climbing for fun. We reach the base at dawn and as we ascend we are pleasantly surprised by the quality of the climb. At the cruxes, two pumpy vertical cracks, Adrian struggles. "I am half a century old!" he exclaims, as if needing to justify himself. On the summit, tears roll down Adrian's face washing the sweat off his face. "It is good to be here with friends," I think to myself. We make a speedy descent along the Fonrouge route – Boca Juniors, Argentina's most iconic soccer team, is playing late in the afternoon and neither Adrian nor I want to miss it.
Patagonia has changed a lot, and these days climbing Guillaumet is a day outing and not a month-long expedition like it once was. Some of the mystique has been lost, but there is nothing like a great day of climbing on immaculate rock without missing the first goal, or the birthday cake.

Sometimes when I wake up and look at myself in the mirror, I don't recognize myself. I then go through the day as more of a sentient watcher of what my body does rather than an active participant. Its like my body is just going through the motions and I am not really there.
Also, I don't really have any feeling about my particular self, when I think of my own body, I just think of that hairy guy I happen to travel this world around in.
anyone else get this feeling?

|Hunt breaks diving record
LAS CRUCES, N.M. – University of Idaho swimmers and divers opened their new year on the right note with records, bests and wins.
Divers Paige Hunt and Mairin Jameson each won one of the diving events and freshman Rachel Millet continued her winning ways by winning the 50, 100 and 200 free races and swimming a leg of the winning 400 free relay.
For Hunt and Jameson, however, it was a special meet. Hunt not only broke Idaho's 17-year-old 3-meter diving record, she qualified for zones with her winning 292.43. Jameson won for the first time as a collegian when she captured the one-meter event with a personal best 248.43.
The disappointment, though, was host New Mexico State won the Western Athletic Conference dual, 171-125.
"There were some really great things, some not so good and a whole lot in-between," coach Mark Sowa said. "We came out of the gates a bit stale but did make some good adjustments in the second half of the meet. Unfortunately, to race a team of this caliber you can't miss opportunities when they present themselves."
Senior Katie Hendricks drew praise for her effort in the grueling 500 free, as did sophomore Lyndsay Williams (200 free, 200 IM) and junior Kelsie Saxe (100 and 200 breast, and 200 IM).
"We will continue to work on swimming a great meet from top to bottom as we prepare for the WAC (championships)," said Sowa, whose team will be at home next Saturday against Oregon State (UI Swim Center, 11 a.m.).

"I don't have pet peves, I have serious, psychotic hatreds"
George Carlin
You Are All Diseased
I hate them because no matter what you tell them, they never listen to advice.
hmm, I suppose that quote would suit me as well. As you may have found, it's much easier to hate than it is to love. Hating is something I do quite well.
i think it was "psychotic fucking hatreds" whelp, but i can't be certain.
"We're all Asstards".

whelp chill out.
Lucario, as long as you keep the shittiness in this thread and don't spread it out, we're fine. You got your thousands of warnings on the other forum. You start screwing this one up, I will take care of you.
A trifecta even necessary?
Xion is wiser than his years. Honest to god, I was floored when I learned he was 15. I expected at the very least he would be 17 or 18.
I thought he was 18 when i first met him
if you think finding out his age is a shock you should hear his voice

If you decide not to breastfeed, or are unable to breastfeed, commercial iron fortified formulas can provide adequate nutrition for your infant. Infant formulas contain adequate amounts of protein, calories, fat, vitamins, and minerals for growth. However, formula does not contain the immune factors that are in breast milk. The immune factors that are found in breast milk can help prevent infections.
Infants who take enough iron-fortified infant formula usually do not need vitamin and mineral supplements. Fluoride is sometimes needed after 6 months of age if the water supply does not have enough fluoride. Check with your baby's physician about fluoride supplements. Types of infant formula include:

The new series uses an Indilinx controller and will debut with a single model featuring 32GB capacity and 64MB onboard cache. The drive is unlikely to leave anyone impressed with read and write speeds of 125MB/s and 70MB/s, respectively, though it should still provide a nice performance upgrade over traditional HDDs.
Like other recent consumer-grade SSDs, the Onyx is based on MLC NAND flash and features TRIM support to help it keep running at optimal speeds over time. Specific pricing was not announced, other than saying it was a sub-$100 boot drive aimed at budget conscious users. But considering the faster Agility series is already pretty close to the hundred buck mark, we are really hoping OCZ goes a fair bit lower than $99 with this one.

Rapid population growth and steady expansion of
agriculture and industry have contributed to environmental
deterioration, especially in the coastal area, where more than half of
Israel's population and most of its industry are concentrated. To combat
pollution of the Mediterranean and Red Sea coastlines, Israel has
adopted a multifaceted program of inspection, legislation, enforcement,
shore clean-ups, and international cooperation, primarily within the
framework of the Mediterranean Action Plan.
Under conditions of water scarcity and intensive development, the degradation of water quality is a critical problem.
The main causes of groundwater pollution are chemical fertilizers,
pesticides, seawater intrusion, and domestic and industrial wastewater.
High priority has been given to wastewater treatment to safeguard its
effects on the environment and public health and to develop an
additional water source for agricultural irrigation. A recently approved
plan for water management stipulates seawater and brackish water
desalination, improved wastewater treatment for reuse purposes,
efficient water production and water conservation. A rehabilitation
program for polluted streams has been initiated with the aim of
transforming them into freshwater resources with ecological and
recreational value. The quality of drinking water is strictly
Factors affecting air quality include energy production,
transportation, and industry - and all three have increased dramatically
in recent years. The use of low sulfur fuel for energy production has
helped reduce concentrations of sulfur dioxide considerably, but
pollutant emissions linked to increased vehicular traffic have risen
significantly. Lead-free gasoline, catalytic converters, and lower
sulfur content in diesel fuel have been introduced to mitigate the
problem. A nationwide monitoring system is providing updated information
on air quality throughout the country. Israel also strives to comply
with international resolutions on ozone depletion and climate change.
Rapid growth in population, standard of living, and consumption have
led to significant increases in solid waste in the order of 4%-5%
annually. Most of the country's illegal garbage dumps have been shut
down in recent years and replaced with environmentally-safe landfills.
Efforts are being made toward integrated solid waste management, which
will include reduction, recycling, recovery, and incineration. Recent
recycling regulations should facilitate the shift to low- and nonwaste
"Cradle to grave" management of hazardous substances is based on
licensing, regulation, and supervision over all aspects of their
production, use, disposal, and treatment. Enforcement of legislation,
implementation of a national contingency plan for integrated emergency
response to accidents, and remediation and upgrading of the national
site for hazardous waste should minimize potential dangers to health and
the environment.
Enforcement of environmental legislation is a top priority alongside
environmental education, from kindergarten to university. The public
takes part in environmental law enforcement as anti-litter trustees and
animal welfare trustees are empowered to report on violations of the
respective laws. Economic tools are increasingly used to promote
environmental improvement, both in the form of financial grants to
industries that invest in pollution prevention and in the form of taxes
and levies on polluters. In line with the principles of sustainable
development, efforts are directed at resource conservation and
prevention of pollution in all economic sectors.

In recent years a unique way of life on the White River, familiar to many in Arkansas County and surrounding areas, has received national attention.
The subject has been presented to documentary film festival viewers as an opening night feature film and also to two overflow, international audiences at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History in Washington, D. C. Now this film is making its way back home.
Filmmaker Melanie Masino has committed over a decade to documenting the poignant and heartwarming tales of a unique self-contained people whose roots go back before the Civil War. Today, this once abundant lifestyle survives mostly in the memories of those who made their homes on the White River.
"On Solid Ground: The River Rats of Arkansas" documents all aspects of the once vibrant community on the lower White River, including its virtual disappearance. Excerpts from the film will include interviews with river people and their descendants, revealing that no matter how near or far they are from the river, it remains in their blood forever. A select version of this film has been produced for the Arkansas County 200th anniversary celebration.
"On Solid Ground" has become an organic and very personal work for Masino and her crew.
"We realize a full and comprehensive record of their history is not only important but compulsory," Masino said. "Their love and devotion to the river is like nothing else we've encountered. It is inspiring and we are thrilled to share some highlights of the special stories we've accumulated over the years with a local audience."
Masino is an award-winning journalist and documentary filmmaker. Her career has taken her across the country and abroad. Her current work throughout Arkansas has proven to be the most rewarding so far, especially that of documenting the stories of the lives of the people of the White River.
Excerpts from "On Solid Ground: The River Rats of Arkansas" will be shown at 10:30 a.m., 11:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. Saturday in the county clerk's vault at the Arkansas County Courthouse in DeWitt.
The Bicentennial Celebration will be held from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday at the courthouse in DeWitt. Activities throughout the day include entertainment from area residents, an aerial photo at 2:45 p.m., costume and coloring contests and a time capsule dedication.

Event co-chairs Catherine Love Kraft and Street Nalley gathered more than 240 supporters of Skyland Trial, an Atlanta nonprofit mental health treatment facility. The crowd congregated at SweetWater Brewing Company to raise funds for the organization. Host committee members such as Lucy Chastain, Kat and Blake Segars, Morgan Akers, Amanda Lowe, as well as Miriam and Mark Metcalf were there to help make younger philanthropists more aware of the cause. Nashville singer and songwriter Tim McNary entertained guests as they sampled SweetWater's brews while savoring bites from Verde Taqueria and the Pie Shop's key lime pie.

Chief Curator Jim Henke talks to Bruce Springsteen
This is the second and third clip in a series of eight interview audio clips with Springsteen that we will post over the next several weeks.
In this portion of my interview, Bruce Springsteen talks about his first recording session with his band the Castiles. The group, which Bruce joined when he was a 14-year-old sophomore at Freehold High School and which was named after a brand of soap, went into a studio to record two songs, "That's What You Get" and "Baby I." Both songs were written by Bruce and George Theiss. The single was never released, but an acetate of it is in the Springsteen exhibit at the Rock Hall.
Click here to listen to Springsteen talk about recording with the Castiles.
The Upstage Club was a popular musicians' hangout in Asbury Park, New Jersey. Bruce Springsteen played there frequently, and his band Child came together at the club. As Bruce explains in this section of my interview, the club stayed open until five a.m., and musicians would show up there after playing gigs at other clubs and then jam until the early-morning hours.

That being said, in listening to this show again (something I was not looking forward to) I found that for being such a bad bad show, it really wasn't that bad. Maybe I have better perspective about it now than I did then. We were all a little rusty in 2004 as far as I can remember. I echo the sentiment of another reviewer that the show is certainly not boring. There are several to many tough moments, but the band is genuinely trying to make it sound good.
All these thoughts were going to move this show up to a two on my scale, but the highly unfortunate incident in the middle of the second set (I agree, absolute lowest point for them on stage) derails any upward mobility.
I was scared of this show, but I have learned that everything (even 2004), is going to be ok.

Living in a world of 7 billion , with the largest ever youth population in our history and limited natural resources, is both a challenge and an opportunity. While addressing long-term perspectives, it is crucial to put in place holistic approaches that promote relevant teaching and learning towards a globalised world ensuring effective transitions to a green economy and more sustainable and equitable societies, whether in rural or urban settings. Hence, the dominant education systems supporting such a transformation need to undergo radical change to effectively address current and future global sustainability challenges and ensure access for the most marginalized. Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) - with its focus on holistic approaches, contextualisation, life-long learning processes, values orientation, community engagement and participation - is central to facilitating change towards a better future for humanity.
Background / Rationale
The current mode of development is unsustainable and is perpetuating the cycle of poverty, inequity and the destruction of ecosystems. To achieve sustainable development and to break the cycle of poverty and inequity, one needs sustainable education systems and education for sustainability. That is, the world needs men and women who are educated to think and act responsibly and respectful towards environment and the society. Today, mainstream education does not adequately represent values related to sustainability, nor do they provide the knowledge and skills necessary for putting those values into action.
Education has the potential to be transformative. It can change people?s values and behaviours encouraging them to adopt more sustainable lifestyles. It can contribute to breaking the cycle of poverty and it can build the resilience of the most vulnerable. It plays a critical role in the development of knowledge, attitude and skills required for transiting to green economy. In this context, education for some groups, and rural people in particular - which today are the majority of the world poor and illiterate people - has to take a priority in the policies of the nation states. At the same time, it is important to recognise that the world of poverty is rapidly urbanising and requires urgent measures that develop capabilities of poor to live decent life. Such an inclusive education is most equitable and effective when it starts from childhood and leading to life-long learning in adulthood. While efforts should be directed towards increasing the access of the most marginalized people, including youth, to education systems, the importance of informal and inter-generational learning, building on culturally sensitive approaches, can also not be under-estimated, particularly when taking into account that access to quality and relevant education is not guaranteed for large populations of boys, and more so, for girls. We know that for education to be transformative, it must be based on active, inclusive and participatory learning and teaching processes, be supported by qualified teachers, take place in enabling and safe learning environments and be linked to local communities and local issues. Quality and relevant education demands changes toward sustainable thinking and action across the entire education system.
Furthermore, transformative education needs to build the skills of learners in critical thinking and innovation and to strengthen the core values of respect for themselves, others and the environment. In order to break the cycle of poverty and build resilience, education must reach the poorest and most vulnerable children and adults through complementary formal, non-formal and informal approaches. Such education should empower children and young people to take informed decisions on all matters that affect them and participate fully and freely in society.
Society today has become a risk society which, in addition to old risks, is facing new global sustainability challenges. Constantly and rapidly changing realities present a special challenge to educational institutions. With so many social, economic and technical innovations for sustainable development available, many of them remain just good examples and require upscaling. Education is key to this challenge. Implementing Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) is an inter-sectoral endeavour, requires high-level government support and political will to make it happen in all types, levels and settings of education and learning. Sowing the seeds of ESD we can advance the rights, health and well-being of current and future generations.
Concrete measures / recommendations
1. Mainstream the integration of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) by all countries? education sectors with a strengthened focus on key sustainable development issues (such as climate change, Biodiversity, disaster risk preparedness, sustainable consumption and production, gender equality, equity and tolerance), skills for resilience and dealing with complexity, innovation, creativity as well as participation and cooperation.
2. Reinforce support for and facilitation of cross-sectoral, multi-stakeholder ESD initiatives at all levels (in particular at the sub-national level), as a means not only to develop locally relevant learning systems but also as a mechanism to upscale and mainstream sustainable practices.
3. Focusing on vulnerable populations, including youth, rural and urban poor, migrant workers, immigrants and marginalised minorities, and their learning needs through formal , non-formal and informal education through all their lives and strengthening their abilities for life and their capacity to succeed and to break the cycle of poverty, hunger and illiteracy.
4. Further develop ESD initiatives beyond the 2015 target of the MDGs by mobilizing capacities and resources of all the relevant governmental agencies in particular Ministries of Education as a key actor.

Revenue is the amount of money a company is allowed to recognize from the sale of its goods, services, or intellectual property during an accounting period. It is synonymous with "sales", turnover or "top line."
Expanded Definition
You might think that revenue = sales, so the number you see on the income statement is exactly how much money the company brought in from selling its stuff. Yes and no.
Yes, because that is how a company generates sales, by selling its "stuff" be it goods, services, or intellectual property. And the company gets paid for that.
No, because of a couple of things. First, the number shown on the income statement is usually "net" of various items, such as expected returns. Having tracked sales, delivery, and returns, a company knows how much of the stuff it delivers will be returned on average, so it nets out this amount, showing how much actually remains in the customers' hands.
Second, thanks to accrual basis accounting, the company usually hasn't received all the cash it is owed for the stuff it has sold. Very often, the company will issue short term credit, delivering the goods or services before payment is received. However, if the company is reasonably sure that payment will indeed be received, the company is allowed to "recognize" that sale as revenue.
Recognizing revenue
How and when a company "recognizes" revenue is very important, as it determines how much net income a company will show in any given accounting period. For instance, if a company cannot recognize revenue until 100% of the item is delivered, but it has to show expenses as they happen, then net income is going to be depressed until all of a sudden, when it "earns" that revenue, net income will shoot up to a high level. Now, usually, a company in this type of situation has several projects going on and is recognizing revenue from older projects, so things won't be quite that lumpy (net loss, net loss, net gain, net loss net loss, net loss, net gain, ...), but you can see how this type of revenue recognition would affect the "worth" of the company if all you did was look at the net income line and saw losses and gains coming in at seeming random intervals.
Further, if a customer does not or cannot pay for what it bought, the company can no longer recognize that revenue as "earned" because the reasonable expectation of payment no longer holds.
How a company recognizes revenue is usually one of the first footnotes found below the financial statements and should be read assiduously so that you understand how a company makes money.
Revenue vs. cash
Because revenue can be recognized before the customer pays for what was sold, revenue does not equal the amount of cash brought into the company during the accounting period. Some of what has been sold has actually been paid for, so that results in cash. But some of what has been sold hasn't been paid for yet. In this case, then the accounts receivable account on the balance sheet is increased by the amount that has been recognized but not paid for yet.
However, the company is also collecting on older receivables, so the balance of that account is going up and down as sales are made and cash is collected. It's not a linear relationship, in other words.
Tying into the income statement
Net revenue is listed at the top of the income statement and is thus often called the "top line." All the expenses used to generate that revenue during that reported time period are then listed below it and subtracted from it. The end result is net income at the bottom of the income statement, called, unimaginatively, the "bottom line."
Revenue is only reported for ongoing operations. If a company is selling or has sold a division of itself, the sales generated by that division are not included in the top line. Instead, that will show up lower down the income statement, as part of "discontinued operations," usually just above net income (after tax owed or due has been shown).
Other types of non-revenue gains are shown after the operating portion of the income statement, such as gain on sale of assets or investments, or one-time gains such as from the payment of a lawsuit settlement. Don't confuse these with "revenue."

Innovative product BikeSpike product
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
The BikeSpike is a tracking solution that protects your bike and broadcasts your ride. It was designed and developed in Chicago Illinois by engineering collective Three Man Rocket and digital innovation house ColorJar and the project launched on Kickstarter this past week: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1054587410/the-bikespike The Kickstarter video does a good job of explaining the project, but here are the three basic things it does:
1. Bike Theft Recovery – Everyone has a painful bike theft story, with the BikeSpike we'll all start having more awesome bike recovery stories.
2. Accident Alert – With our built-in accelerometer, BikeSpike detects when your bike has been in an accident and alerts select members on your contact list.
3. Broadcasts your ride, while you are riding – Riders will be able to set the BikeSpike to automatically tweet their location on a map for all of their followers. Folks racing in non-UCI sanctioned events could use this to broadcast their locations during the race, average folks could let friends and loved ones know where they were riding.

Rated 4.3 out of 5 by 10 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Candee Beautiful Shelf I had looked online and in stores for a few weeks and knew this shelf was perfect when I saw it. I wanted something tall and this one is the tallest I could find. Other shelves I looked at had sides that were in two pieces and this one is solid from top to bottom. The wood has a beautiful, rich, dark finish with a hint of cherry. I have other pieces of furniture from WM and as always, this one is top notch. I am so happy I found this shelf and would highly recommend it! July 20, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by west08 Love our new slanted Bookshelves Ordering online was user friendly. Product was easy to assemble and the shelves match our existing furniture perfectly. We are very happy with our purchase. Didn't wait long for shipping. Well done World Market!!! May 7, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Jess Sturdy, Attractive and Easy to Assemble This bookcase is just about perfect. It was easy to assemble and took me about 20-30 minutes to do by myself. The finish is beautiful and consistent from piece to piece. Hidden screws attach it to the wall for safety instead of the ugly visible straps that come with some other bookcases. I couldn't be more pleased. November 29, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by keliza22 Great piece of furniture! Great piece for the price, we couldn't find anything comparable anywhere else! July 27, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by KT Great piece We love this little addition to our large living room. It's quite tall, and fits well against our used to be bare walls. Great tiers for books on bottom and pictures etc on top. A great deal, and easy to assemble! July 24, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by marie Beautiful and great quality! I ordered two and like them so much I will be ordering another. They are a beautiful espresso/chocolate color and sturdy. Friends that have seen them think I bought them at a pricier store. I bought the desk too! December 9, 2010
Rated 4 out of 5 by Happy Home Stager Nice shelf As a Home Stager I often looks for attractive furniture that can serve a purpose w/o taking up much space. This shelf works well for this purpose. Nice height & color. Only wish that the shelves had a lip at the edge to keep items from rolling/falling off. This is a stand alone shelf not the kind that leans against the wall. September 16, 2011
Rated 4 out of 5 by Sean Easy to assemble, great buy! It's a great, modern bookshelf to smarten up your room with a smart price! July 16, 2011

May Bee Blocks
But as I finished the block, I had a horrible sinking feeling that I've seen it somewhere before. This block definitely reminded me of something. But what? And then I realized ...
That's right. It reminds me of Megan's {Sew} Modern Monday button. But that was a huge relief, because I actually designed Megan's button! So I'm only ripping off myself. Whew! Doesn't get more "me" than that, does it? Well, and it's kind of Megan too, but that's a bonus, because she's also in {Sew} Beautiful! It's like I planned it or something. : )
One other thing I want to point out about this block: Angela requested that we throw in a few blue scraps from our own stashes (another fun aspect of the whole "me" thing). So I fussy-cut a little snail from my recently-acquired Prince Charming stash to use as the center of one of the smallest hexies. You can see him if you look closely at the upper-right. That little guy is now my favorite part of the block!
Do. Good Stitches: More blue! This month, the Love Circle made blocks for a "Box of Crayons" quilt. We each took one color, and we could make any blocks we wanted as long as they were in our assigned colors—another fun bee concept. It could have been a bit tricky coming up with block designs that would look good in a single color, but the "plus" concept (on the left) leaped to mind immediately for me.
And since I wanted my blocks to echo each other without being identical, I wanted another design that featured a plus sign. I didn't have to look any further than Badskirt Amy's cool x and plus scrappy quilt tutorial. I just upsized Amy's 8" block to 12.5" inches. (If you're curious about the math, you can find the dimensions I used here, in the comments.)
String Me Along: Last but certainly not least, here's my drunk love block for Elizabeth. She asked us to make a block as large as we could manage, and mine is a gigantic 18.5." I love that she sent such a fun and dramatic mix of prints and solids. This is my third drunk love bee block so far this year, so it's obviously a popular design! And you know, I love these blocks as much as the next girl, but I am now hoping for a break from drunk love, at least for a little while. : )
P.S. Thanks for all your well-wishes about the potty training! It's been an interesting few days around here. I think I must have said the words "Do you have to go potty" at least 15,000 times in the last five days. True story. Beyond that, I am not sayin' a word, because God help me if I jinx anything!

Good luck with potty training. I have no street cred--I sent my son to Grandma's in California when he was two for a week and he came back potty trained... I am trying to scheme about how to do the same with my little one. Love the hexagons, by the way!

Anyone remember when there were so many record stores that you could bounce from one to the other, either to find exactly what you wanted or perhaps get that one album a little bit cheaper? Well, I do. Growing up in the woods in Daphne, Alabama, there was no place nearby to purchase records, so when rock and roll took off, I had a dilemma.
Fortunately, in the summer of 1957, my Mama started letting me ride the Greyhound bus to Mobile by myself to go to the movies once a week. I mowed lawns to finance these escapades, which required $5 for each trip. Expenditures were for the bus, the movies, lunch and – the pièce de résistance – my quest to find that one 45 RPM record that I couldn't live without.
My destinations on these missions were primarily Rutz Music and Jessie French. These two prominent stores sold instruments and sheet music, but, more important, they each had a record section with listening booths. Do you know how long it might take to pick out one hit single, which cost 99 cents? About two delightful hours.
I would cart untold numbers of LPs and 45s into the booths and angst over that one small purchase. Often, I would drag along a friend who had been recruited for the day to help with the decision-making process.
Record stores were gathering places. They had a certain smell and aura. They were magical in how they conveyed a time and a culture to a pre-teen boy who was usually dressed chromatically in either all-black or all-red.
My love of rock and roll and my love of vinyl has never waned. In fact, it only got worse as I grew older. The physical aspects of records – the labels, the covers, the liner notes – continue to fascinate me. As such, national Record Store Day is right up there with Thanksgiving. Add to that the resurgence of vinyl, and I'm truly ecstatic.
I urge any of you who love music to take some time on Saturday to patronize your local record dealer. Funny thing: If you don't know where your nearest record store is, there's an app for that.
In celebration of Record Store Day, all vinyl in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum's f.y.e. record store will be 10% off on Saturday, April 21 and Sunday, April 22, 2012, from 10 am - 5 pm on both days. The store has approximately 1,500 45s and 2,000 LPs to choose from. Admission to the Museum is not required to shop at the record store.
