Men's Track Opens Outdoor Season with a Team Win and Nine Event Wins
ORLANDO (3/22/14) - The Princeton men's track & field won the Walt Disney World Track & Field Open at the ESPN World Wide of Sports Complex this weekend, March 21-22. It marked the first competition of the outdoor season for the Tigers who spent the spring break week training in the Sunshine State.

Taylor won the hammer on his first throw of the season, launching the hammer to 52.08 (170-10). Freshman Vic Youn was fourth at 45.88 (150-06) while also taking eighth in the discus.
Rushton won the shot put at 16.47 (54-00.50) on his third attempt. His final throw of 16.33 would have won him the event as well. Freshman Jared Bell was third at 16.23 (53-3).
In the other throws, senior Brad Pelisek was second in the javelin at 57.97 (190-02) while freshman Chris Cook was third in the discus at 51.03 (167-05).
The top seven in the long jump was dominated by Princeton and unattached competitors. The Tigers went 2-4-7 with the unattached athletes filling the other slots. Hopkins was second at 7.37 (24-2.25) on his final jump. He had two previous jumps of 7.33 that would have placed him second as well. Sophomore Jake Scinto was fourth at 6.87 (22-6.50) and sophomore Bryan Oslin was seventh at 6.40 (21-0).
On the other side of the field, senior Omar Jarrett was the runner-up in the high jump as he cleared 2.03 (6-8) on his first attempt. Freshman Xavier Bledsoe was fourth at 1.98 (6-6).

Three Tigers made the final out of the 44 preliminary competitors. Senior Daniel McCord qualified but did not compete in the final. Instead he focused on the 100, where he made the eight-person final, out of 51, and finished in fifth place at 10.99.
Caldwell won the short hurdles with a time of 14.71, with Oslin seventh at 16.50. In the long hurdles, freshman Greg Leeper and sophomore Jordan Myers went 3-4 at 55.16 and 55.50, respectively.
The 4x100 relay of junior Tommaso Greenbaum, freshmen Brent Albertson, McCord and Hopkins clocked a 41.51 for a win.
As the distances grew, so did the wins.
The Tigers went 1-2-3 in the 800, with Brahm winning with a time of 1:53.52. Sophomore Jamie Fehrnstrom followed at 1:55.84 and then junior Sam Pons at 1:56.86.

Sean Dooley
Baker University head men's basketball coach Sean Dooley wrapped up his second season for the Wildcats in 2013-14 and led the 'Cats to an 11-19 overall record and spot in the HAAC Conference Tournament as the No. 8 seed.
Under Dooley's leadership he helped develop freshman Javeion Gray into the 2013-14 HAAC Freshman of the Year honor and EJ Carter was named to the Honorable Mention All-HAAC squad. Carter also was awarded with the prestigious NAIA Scholar-Athlete award for his work off of the basketball court.
In his first season as the head coach of the Wildcats, Sean Dooley led the WIldcats to a winning record of 15-14 and finished sixth in the Heart of America Athletic Conference standings.
Baker jumped out to an impressive 6-1 start and won six straight from Nov. 6 - Nov. 20. The Wildcats then went 8-10 throughout the HAAC regular season and took on MidAmerica Nazarene in the First Round of the HAAC conference tournament competing with the nationally ranked Pioneers all the way until the final whistle, eventually falling to MNU, 69-68.
Baker earned awards both for their ability on the floor and in the classroom under Dooley's leadership in 2012-13, as Ben Steinlage earned a spot on the HAAC Second Team All-Conference and Cory Anderson was named to the HAAC Honorable Mention All-Conference team.
As a team, Baker was named a NAIA Scholar Team and was awarded the inaugural National Association of Basketball Coaches Team Academic Excellence Award for accumulating a team GPA of 3.0 or higher.
Individually, four Wildcats were named to the NABC Honors Court for earning a GPA of 3.2 or higher, as Kevin Lysaught Steinlage, Julian Mills and EJ Carter all took home the honor. Lysaught also became one of just 60 men's basketball players in the NAIA Division I to earn the Daktronics-NAIA Scholar-Athlete award.
On April 27, 2012, Dooley was named the 26th head coach in Baker University men's basketball history. Dooley came to Baker after serving as NAIA Hall of Fame Coach Bob Burchard's lead assistant for the past five seasons at Columbia College. There, Dooley was in charge of several areas including, recruiting, scouting, player development, and monitoring of academic performance.
While at Columbia, Dooley helped guide the Cougars to an overall record of 121-49 (.712) including two regular season American Midwest Conference Championships. During his time with the Cougars, the team also enjoyed many post-season successes including, winning the American Midwest Conference Tournament Championship in 2009 and 2012, and making four NAIA Division I National Tournament appearances (2008, 2009, 2011, and 2012).
In 2012, the Cougars advanced to the Sweet 16, and in 2009 they made it further than any other team in school history by participating in the National Championship game. With Dooley's assistance, Columbia has been highly regarded as one of the top defensive teams in the NAIA. The Cougars were ranked as the number 1 team in scoring defense for the 2011 season, and ranked number 2 for the 2012 season.
During his career at Columbia, Dooley helped many of his players earn individual accolades, both on the court and in the classroom. Over the five year period, four were named NAIA All Americans, 11 were named to the American Midwest All Conference Team; including the 2011 Freshman of the Year, 2011 Newcomer of the Year and the 2012 Conference Player of the Year. The Cougar student-athletes achieved equal level of success in the classroom with 24 being named to the American Midwest Academic All-Conference Team, and eight earning NAIA Scholar Athlete honors.
Dooley began his collegiate coaching career when he assisted another NAIA Hall of Fame Coach, Larry Holley, at William Jewell College. Dooley was an assistant at Jewell for three seasons, and held multiple titles while on staff. He was the Head Coach of the junior varsity squad during his first two seasons with the Cardinals, while also assisting the varsity squad with scouting, recruiting, and leading their strength and conditioning program. During his last season with the Cardinals, he was Coach Holley's lead assistant and directed all of William Jewell's recruiting efforts. During his time at William Jewell, Dooley helped guide the Cardinals to three consecutive winning seasons, which included two appearances in the NAIA Division II National Tournament. Due to the team's success, several Cardinals were recognized for their play, including 10 named to the Heart of America All Conference team, and four named NAIA Division II All-Americans.
Prior to his career at William Jewell, Dooley was a graduate assistant in the athletics department at University of Missouri-Kansas City. While at UMKC, Dooley was the athletics department promotions coordinator and assisted with game operations, ticket sales, and various marketing and sponsorship campaigns. He earned a Master of Arts degree in Educational Administration in May 2004.
Dooley began his collegiate playing career in 1998 at Penn Valley Community College in Kansas City, playing for the legendary Fred Pohlman. While at Penn Valley, Dooley made the All-Region Team both in his freshman and sophomore seasons, and helped lead the team during his sophomore season to the NJCAA Division II National Tournament. After two seasons at Penn Valley, Dooley moved on to Columbia College to complete his collegiate career. While at Columbia, the Cougars went 57-12, won one American Midwest Conference Regular Season championship, won one American Midwest Conference Tournament Championship and advanced to two NAIA Division I National Tournaments. For his efforts, Dooley was named to the American Midwest Conference First Team during both seasons at Columbia. He concluded his time at Columbia by being named Columbia College Male Athlete of the Year and earning a Bachelor's of Arts in Business Administration degree in May 2002.
Sean and his wife, Nikki, have two sons, Jackson (11) and Joey (4), and a daughter, Jordyn (2).

Full disclosure is that I do not actually turn 40 until July 17, 2009, which means that the majority of my new novel The Castaways was written not when I was forty, but when I was 38 and 39. However, there is a marked different between the way I write about sex and love in my previous books and the way I write about it in The Castaways; there is a whole different take on relationships, and it is something that I've been thinking about as the big birthday closes in.
The Castaways is a novel about four couples who live year-round on Nantucket. I have jokingly referred to this novel as "the book I wrote about my friends." It is not, of course, about my friends, but there are overarching themes in the book that resonate in my real life. Whereas my novel Barefoot was a novel about how becoming a mother challenges your personhood and makes you vulnerable to all things, including death, in The Castaways I move on to the next stage – what happens once the kids are older, when they don't need you to watch them every second, what happens when you return to yourself? Are the same things still important? Is your marriage as magical and fulfilling as you'd once thought it was? What I have written about in The Castaways is the way marriage morphs from a heady, idealistic infatuation into something more realistic, more fallible, more substantial.
In the beginning of The Castaways, my characters, Tess and Greg MacAvoy, are killed in a boating accident. As it turns out, both Tess and Greg were unfaithful. Tess was having an affair with Greg's best friend Addison; Greg was having an emotional affair with Tess's friend Delilah as well as, quite possibly, a sexual affair with one of his music students. If these characters had been in their twenties or thirties, the marriages would have ended, as well as the friendships. What interested me so enormously in this book was dealing with characters who were slightly older, who had experienced life, who were emotionally evolved enough to realize that everybody messes up, and the most important thing is to forgive and move on. This is what makes The Castaways so compelling – the characters behave badly, but for good reasons, and because they are in the hands of a "maturing" author, you know they're going to be okay.

November 23, 1998
LAWRENCE, Kan. - Making its first team appearance at the national championship meet in school history, Arizona State tied for 23rd place at the NCAA Division I Women's Cross Country Championships, held at Rim Rock Farm in Lawrence, Kan. The Sun Devils were paced by senior Priscilla Hein, whose 39th-place finish was the best individual NCAA performance in ASU history, surpassing Sabrina Peters 44th-place effort in 1980.
Hein finished the 5,000-meter course in 17:42.65, 55 seconds behind Michigan's Katie McGregor who captured the individual crown in 16:47.21. Villanova won the women's team title with four top 20 finishers and 106 points.
The Sun Devils posted 534 points to finish in a deadlock with Nebraska in the 31-team, 254-person field. Three of ASU's five scorers (top five score points) were freshmen. ASU freshman Lisa Aguilera finished 131st in 18:31, sophomore Kelly MacDonald 134th in 18:32, freshman Kristin McFerron 158th in 18:43, freshman Cody Sohn 211th in 19:16, sophomore Nicole Simmons 227th in 19:38 and sophomore Amy Maciasek 235th in 19:59.
Prior to this year, ASU had never participated in the national championships as a team and only four individuals had competed. ASU's finish was the fifth-best among the six Pac-10 schools at the meet. Stanford finished third, Washington ninth, Oregon 12th, Arizona 16th and UCLA 28th.

Vote out Republicans
Published: Wednesday, July 17, 2013 at 12:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, July 16, 2013 at 11:16 a.m.
Editor: I've begun a new group. There are no meetings, no dues and no membership list. But there are members. To be a part of the group, all you have to do is make yourself two solemn pledges: 1. You will vote in every election in the next three years. And 2. No matter who you vote for you will have one guiding rule: no incumbent Republican will get your vote.
Like the English Parliament back in 1776, our General Assembly, governor and Congress are making all kind of laws for us because "they" knew and know better than "we" do what we needed or want or should or should not have. Our forefathers had to fight a war to get rid of Parliament; all we have to do is remember three little letters — N.I.R. — every time we vote, and vote we will.

Dell'Ovo Castle - Naples
The Castle's origins lie on the little island of "Megaride" (Megaris), the first port created by the Greek pionners who settled on the rocky promontory of Pizzofalcone: its history is entwined with the mythical founding of "Parthenope".
First the Villa of the delights of the Roman patrician, Lucius Licinus Lucullus, later a sanctuary for hermit monks, of whom evidence remains in the "Columns Hall" (Sala delle Colonne) with four naves created with columns recovered from Roman buildings, perhaps the refectory for the brothers.
History and legend are linked to the structures: here Odoacer imprisoned Romulus Augustulu, the last Roman Emperor; in the story of Patricia, a Saint of the Eastern Inperial family, of Catholic faith, refused to marry and rebelled against her parents, fleeing from Constantinople to reach Naples.
With the Normans, who conquered the city in 1140, the island became a royal residence and an absolute fortness.
Frederic II was so fond of the estate that he kept all his crown jewels there.
"Castle dell'Ovo" (Castel dell'Ovo) emerged with the Angevin dynasty and owes its name to the medieval legend: the poet Virgil, who according to popular beliefs of that period was a powerful wizard, bound the fate of the Castle and the city to those of an "egg" inside a jar closed inside an iron container, kept in a secret place.
In the 1400s it was conquered by Alfonso d'Aragon, who modified to suit new military needs: it was completely restructured inside during the Spanish Viceroyalty.
From the 1700s onwards, the Castle slowly declined and was only recently restored.
The charm of the place is extraordinary: a citadel fortress that offers unforgettable views of the Gulf of Naples framed in the Ancient architecture.
Streets with terraces on a slope, powerful walls and smooth views make of it a monument of exceptional beauty, and of great historical interest.
Among the structures there are the Hall of the Columns, the Gothic-Arragon open Gallery with Arks, the Church of Salvatore (linked to the settlement of the 7th century) and the Towers "Maestra" and " Normandia ".

A few years years back I picked up a m16 upper at the creek. It has forward assist. It is coded to have a chrome chamber, but not the bore. I think it's a 1 in 12 twist. Now I am wondering what would be historically correct way to assemble this upper? For now it's been on a dpms lower a2 stock, dpms ar15 bolt, but I just got a fn m16a2 barrel 1 in 7 twist and I think I would like to transfer the new barrel to the dpms lower. I also have a shorter early type buttstock, pistol grip without the extra bump (a1?), and three prong flash hider. I think Nodak has a more correct lower I could buy.
Guess I'm wondering if my short stock, upper, and three prong flash hider go together? Or what to buy to make it most historically correct or at least in appearance?

Health and Environment Alliance (HEAL)

- Stakeholder type: Major Group
- Name: Health and Environment Alliance (HEAL)
- Submission Document: Download
Full SubmissionResponse of the Health and Environment Alliance HEAL to the Rio+20 consultation As the leading European not-for-profit organisation addressing how the environment affects health in the European Union, HEAL welcomes the organisation of the UN conference on sustainable development and has very high hopes for the Rio+20 process. Twenty years after the Rio conference, the world is still very much on an unsustainable path, with dire consequences for our health. Citizens all around the world are looking onto the political decision-makers to show leadership at Rio+20 in order to tackle the urgent environment and health challenges that we face. It is very important that the conference results in concrete and legally binding outcomes to bring real benefits to people?s health and the planet. The transition to a green economy must be fair and equitable, lift people out of poverty, respect planetary boundaries, commit to decent jobs agenda and improve and promote people?s health. Health is recognised as a key goal of sustainable development in the first principle of the Rio declaration, which states that ?Human beings are at the centre of concerns for sustainable development. They are entitled to a healthy and productive life in harmony with nature.? However, twenty years later, we believe there is an urgent need to make ?health? central to the Rio+20 process and outcomes, potentially by creating a fourth pillar at the center of economic, social and environmental pillars in order to concretely link this agenda more explicitly to what people care most about - their own health and that of their community. The consequences of environmental degradation on our health are well known and the science continues to grow on the myriad impacts (for example the burden of disease from noise or chemical pollution, also the problem of health impacts of chemicals mixtures and endocrine disruptors). In parallel, well known environmental health hazards continue to harm people across the planet such as asbestos, persistent organic pollutants (POPs), mercury and electronic waste to name just a few. It is therefore important to reverse the toxic legacy for health today and tomorrow and to ensure equity and the protection of those most vulnerable (those living in poverty, children, women). Four concrete ways to make the foreseen Rio+20 Declaration reflect this health dimension are provided below. The cost of inaction: health impacts of environmental degradation and the rise of chronic diseases Chronic diseases - cancer, cardio-vascular diseases, chronic respiratory diseases and diabetes - account for over 63% of deaths globally. The number of chronic disease cases has risen in the last years and is expected to increase further. In Europe, chronic diseases are responsible for 86% of deaths. Environmental pollution is one of the key factors in the occurrence of chronic diseases. In September, UN Heads of State and governments adopted the political declaration of the high- level meeting of the General Assembly on the Prevention and Control of Non-communicable diseases. The resolution highlights that ?the global burden of non-communicable diseases constitutes one of the major challenges for development in the 21 century, which undermines social and economic development through the world?. Since Rio+20 puts a strong focus on greening the economy and linking sustainable development and Poverty eradication, the challenge from chronic diseases and ways to tackle them cannot be left out of the agenda. This means first of all to highlight the health impacts of environmental degradation and how they intersect with poverty. In Europe, half a million people still die prematurely each year because of air pollution, despite many regulatory measures in place to lower pollution levels. Globally, WHO estimates that more than 2 million premature deaths each year can be attributed to the effects of urban outdoor air pollution and indoor air pollution. More than half of this disease burden is borne by the populations of developing countries (http://www.who.int/topics/environmental_health/en/). There is an urgent need to integrate the activities on tackling and preventing chronic diseases into the Rio+20 process. Adding co-benefits: Huge health benefits of sustainable development and greening the economy Making health central to Rio+20 would also serve as a major driver for a renewed and stronger commitment for sustainable development measures, through highlighting the huge health benefits that could be gained from taking ambitious action now. Primary prevention through strong environmental policies and enforcement has shown to be not only cost effective but also provide significant gains in providing a healthier environment for all. Reducing our consumption and moving to a low-carbon economy will also create health gains in many cases. Regarding climate change, the work of WHO and many others have shown the health co-benefits of stronger climate change mitigation action and the move to a low-carbon economy. For Europe, HEAL and HCWH Europe recently published figures that showed that the EU would gain up to 30.5 billion EUR by moving to a more ambitious GHG reduction goal of 30% (http://www.env-health.org/spip.php?rubrique97). This would be as a result of cleaner air, but additional health benefits would be gained from encouraging more walking and cycling and also less meat consumption. As the leading medical journal Lancet has shown, huge health benefits would also be reaped at a global level. For example, through a programme to introduce 150 million low-emission cookstoves in India the national burden of disease of respiratory and other diseases would be lowered by about a sixth (http://download.thelancet.com/flatcontentassets/series/health-and-climate- change.pdf). Renewed international commitment to reducing the public?s exposure to harmful chemicals From an environmental health perspective, another central issue is to increase international efforts to reduce people?s exposure to harmful chemicals. We very much welcome the proposal to strengthen the international framework for chemicals management and make it legally binding. Such a framework should also clearly establish concrete actions to meet the 2020 deadline for producing and using chemicals in such a way that they do not lead to harmful effects on health and the environment. Support for specialised UN agency for the environment HEAL supports discussions to strengthen environmental governance through the creation of a specialized UN agency for the environment on equal footing with other specialized UN agencies. This is necessary to fundamentally improve governance, accountability and liability. HEAL believes that a key criteria for the success of the UN conference will be to make the health dimension central to the process, and consequently involve all actors - UN member states, different intergovernmental organisations and UN bodies, and stakeholders in the process. Given the increasing toll on people?s health of unsustainable development, special efforts should be given to increasing the participation of the health sector in this new RIO+20 agenda, as well as increasing the public health framing around discussions. We hope to continue to contribute to these discussions in the coming months, bringing together various expertise and perspectives from our broad based environment and health alliance. Best regards, Genon K. Jensen Executive Director, Health and Environment Alliance (HEAL) The Health and Environment Alliance (HEAL) is the leading European not-for-profit organisation addressing how the environment affects health in the European Union. We demonstrate how policy changes can help protect health and enhance people?s quality of life. HEAL has over 70 member organisations, representing health professionals, patients, citizens, women, youth and environmental experts, help to bring independent expertise and evidence from the health community to different decision-making processes. Members include international and Europe- wide organisations, as well as national and local groups. www.env-health.org

Affiliated with
Somerville, MA…The Spring Hill Garden, located on Cambridge Health Alliance's Somerville Hospital campus at 125 Lowell St., recently completed its third successful growing season promoting healthy eating and food security in the Somerville community. In an effort to raise funds to support the garden in the coming year, Cambridge Health Alliance (CHA) is offering the Firmly Planted 2013 Calendar, which chronicles a year in the life of the garden.
The 12-month full color calendar features photos and artwork donated by the Firmly Planted Garden Group, members of CHA's Victims of Violence Program who volunteer weekly to tend the garden, harvest produce, and assist in delivering it throughout the community. By caring for the garden, group members gain opportunities to explore their own growth and connect to life-affirming aspects of themselves and their capacities to contribute to the well-being of others.
The garden has provided produce to local food pantries including the HIV food pantry at CHA's Somerville Hospital campus, Elizabeth Peabody House, and Project Soup. Spring Hill Garden's produce has also been donated to residential homes at CASPAR, a local nonprofit organization that provides community-based services for those affected by substance use disorders, and Walnut Street Center, which assists adults with developmental disabilities and their families.
The Firmly Planted calendar is available for purchase online at www.challiance.org/springhillgarden. A portion of the proceeds will benefit the Spring Hill Garden and help to continue providing healthful food options to those who need it most.

ZF-6659: Module bootstrap implementation
There is a small hint that module bootstraps are supported in Zend_Application chapter 4.6.3. But important details about how to create a module bootstrap and from which class it should inherit (Zend_Application_Module_Bootstrap) were left. I also expected, that the module bootstraps and environment would be loaded automatically, but it's not mentioned that they would only be loaded when setting e.g. resources.modules[] = in the application ini.
Documentation added to trunk and 1.9 release branch; will show up on site with 1.9.2 release.

Featured in Vallarta Lifestyles Magazine, Spring/Summer 2006 issue.
On a typical Thursday evening at Philo's Music Bar on Calle Delfin in the heart of La Cruz de Huanacaxtle, the musicians are tuning up while, in one corner of the palapa-covered space, a group of grinning Mexican children are playing "Simon Says" – in English. Out on the patio, boaters are perusing the bulletin boards filled with ads and information, checking email or using the international phone. By the time the English classes are over, the bar and restaurant are bustling and the band is set. Friends greet each other as couples step up to the dance floor, and the evening is on.
Philo Hayward, sailor, singer, songwriter and owner of Philo's, sailed into Bahía de Banderas in 2000 looking for a place to make music and showcase local talent. Now, musicians from all over flock here. Philo often helps them record their CDs in his studio; the musicians pay with performances.
Today, Philo's is as much a community center as a bar. In addition to four levels of English classes taught by volunteers, there are Spanish and hatha yoga classes during the day and a book exchange. Wednesday night is reserved for a speakers program. People come to Philo's to learn what's going on in town.
Very important to Philo personally is The Friendship Club of La Cruz, based at Philo's. This organization helps local residents with medical expenses and is involved in building a center for seniors. Hayward is always ready to donate his place for a Fiesta Night or benefit brunch, as long as it's a good cause.

- Submission Document: Download
Joint Submission by the Latin American Network of Non-Governmental Organizations of Persons with Disabilities and their Families (RIADIS) and the Global Partnership for Disability and Development (GPDD)
Note: RIADIS is a network formed by disabled persons? organizations from 18 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean. RIADIS' main goal is to promote actions that will result in full respect of human rights, non-discrimination and inclusive development, focused in a sustained improvement of the quality of living conditions of persons with disabilities and their families. GPDD is an unprecedented alliance of more than 70 international and regional Disabled Persons's Organizations (DPOs), government ministries, bilateral and multilateral donors, United Nations (UN) agencies, NGOs, national and international development organizations, and other organizations, committed to promoting economic and Social inclusion of persons with disabilities in middle and low-income countries.
General Comments: Why to mainstream Disability in Rio + 20 Outcome
Inclusive development must integrate all the sustainable development strategies: A fair and just development comprehends equity, equality of opportunities, and protection of vulnerable groups. ?Progress tends to bypass those who are lowest on the economic ladder or are otherwise disadvantaged because of their sex, age, disability or ethnicity?.1 Development can be inclusive ? and reduce poverty ? only if all groups of persons contribute to creating opportunities, share the benefits of development and participate in decision-making.2 Also, to keep global growth sustainable means a stronger focus on inclusion.3
Disability and poverty are intrinsically linked: More than a billion persons are estimated to live with some form of disability, or about 15% of the world?s population. Disability disproportionately affects vulnerable populations. There is a higher disability prevalence in lower-income countries than in higher- income countries. Persons from the poorest wealth quintile, women, and older persons have a higher prevalence of disability. Persons who have a low income, are out of work, or have low educational qualifications are at an increased risk of disability.4 Disability issues should be an integral part of collective efforts and a concrete step to reducing the risk and impact of poverty in any country.
As a Human Rights Issue, Disability is relevant to Sustainable Development: More than 100 countries are legally bounded to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) which sets out with great clarity the obligations on States to promote, protect and ensure those rights. Particularly, its Preamble notes that despite ?various instruments and undertakings? persons with disabilities continue to face human rights violations and barriers to their full inclusion and participation as equal members of society, and that the majority of disabled persons live in ?conditions of poverty.?5 It also anticipates that promoting the full participation of persons with disabilities ?will result in (?) significant advances in the human, social and economic development of society and the eradication of poverty,? and

5 Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, preambular para. (k) and (t)
highlights the ?importance of mainstreaming disability issues as an integral part of relevant strategies of sustainable development.?6
All MDGs are relevant to persons with disabilities and persons with disabilities must be included in all MDG efforts: Although persons with disabilities are not included in any of the MDGs? Goals, Targets or Indicators, recognition of the need for inclusion in the MDGs is reflected in recent General Assembly Resolutions.7 In addition to representing a key target group under Millennium Development Goal 1 (?Eradicate extreme poverty and hunger?), persons with disabilities are also key targets when considering each of the other Goals.8
Disability is relevant to Gender Equity: Women have a higher prevalence of disability. 9 Women with disabilities experience gender discrimination as well as disabling barriers.10 Women with disabilities comprise three quarters of all disabled persons in low and middle-income countries.65-70% of women with disabilities in low and middle-income countries live in rural areas.11 Women in general are more likely than men to become disabled because of poorer working conditions, poor access to quality healthcare, and gender-based violence.12 Only around 19% of women with disabilities are in the global workforce.13
Because of increased risk of gender-based violence and lack of access to reproductive health care services, women with disabilities face unique challenges in preventing HIV infection.

Disability Issues related to Green Economy
? Persons with disabilities lack access to water more often than their non-disabled peers: In developing countries, persons with disabilities have to travel long distances to get water. Information about water distribution, points of water distribution and water access, water pump design, and water containers are not accessible. In addition, for many, there is a lack of social networks or assistance where needed. Prevention messages on water safety are not accessible. Disproportionately expensive water has a serious impact on persons with disabilities living in extreme poverty.16
? Persons with disabilities are among the most affected by climate change and natural disasters: Individuals with disabilities are disproportionately affected in disaster, emergency, and conflict situations due to inaccessible evacuation, response and recovery efforts. Common experience reveals that persons with disabilities are more likely to be left behind or abandoned during evacuation in disasters due to a lack of preparation and planning, as well as inaccessible facilities and services and transportation systems. Most shelters and refugee camps are not accessible and persons with disabilities are many times even turned away from shelters and refugees camps. Disruption to physical, social, economic, and environmental networks and support systems affect persons with disabilities much more than the general population. There is also a potential for discrimination on the basis of disability when resources are scarce. Furthermore, the needs of persons with disabilities continue to be excluded over the more long- term recovery and reconstruction efforts.17
? Decent Work includes considerations to disability: Decent work is a clearly defined universal and indivisible objective, based on fundamental values and principles. While, in operational terms, it is an evolving target, changing to reflect varied national and local situations and taking due consideration of different levels of development and national capacity, its integrated and balanced nature cannot be compromised. Such an integrated approach must include policies, strategies, programmes and activities must target specific disadvantaged or marginalized groups, such as persons with disabilities.18
? Equal Transportation and livable buildings and cities require universal design and access for all: An accessible environment, while particularly relevant for persons with disabilities, has benefits for a broader range of persons, including children, pregnant women and older persons. Access to public accommodations ? buildings and roads ? is beneficial for participation in civic life and essential for education, health care, and labour market participation. Transportation provides independent access to employment, education, and health care facilities, and to social and recreational activities. Without accessible transportation, persons with disabilities are more likely----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Embryos in Legal Limbo: The Beginning
Ten hours before Augusta Roman's in vitro fertilization appointment at the Center of Reproductive Medicine, in Webster, Texas, her husband, Randy, announced that he had changed his mind. It was April 19, 2002, and Augusta, a registered nurse, had been resting in her nightgown on their floral-patterned living room sofa, watching the evening news. She was tired but excited. The next day was to be the culmination of nearly four years of temperature monitoring and scheduled intimacy, unsuccessful artificial inseminations, and painful fallopian tube surgery.
At 40, Augusta believed that in vitro was her last chance to have the baby she wanted so badly. Two days before, 13 eggs had been harvested from her ovarian follicles. Combined in the lab with Randy's sperm, six of the eggs had become viable embryos, which were to be implanted in her uterus the next morning. When Randy, a NASA technician, backed out, Augusta felt as if her world were spinning out of control. But she says she knew even then that she would do whatever it took to implant her embryos.
While Augusta and Randy fought that night, the seeds of their divorce and the Roman v. Roman embryo-custody proceedings — now heading for Texas Supreme Court — were stirring to life. And as the case wends its way through the legal system, the arguments that divided the Romans hang in the air in a debate that affects a growing number of midlife women.
We are, after all, the primary customers for assisted reproductive technologies such as IVF. Back when we were in our 20s, "choice" meant having both the means and the legal right to prevent an unwanted birth. Many of us now feel that choice also means the ability to have a baby at 40, or 45, or even 50 and beyond.
But…does Augusta Roman's desire to bring these embryos to term transcend Randy Roman's change of heart about becoming a father? Are embryos simply community property to be divvied up in a divorce tussle, as if they were a car or a plasma TV? Or are they budding lives? Augusta insists they are, in fact, children, offspring that she has a maternal duty, a parental right, to protect. At the fertility clinic, the Romans had initialed an agreement saying the embryos would be discarded if they divorced. So maybe the answer is as simple as enforcing that contract. Or should courts favor the woman because her window of biological opportunity is so much narrower than a man's?
Whose Egg Is It, Anyway? An Embryo-Custody Battle
She's desperate to bear a child; he refuses to be the father. While Augusta and Randy Roman duke it out in court, three embryos they created together are on ice. Welcome to the custody battle of the future.

For many of us, having perfect attendance at school or work has been a mark of dedication. The drive to give our all is, and has long been a big part of our culture.
But giving our all today could mean giving it a rest – especially when it comes to protecting our families and colleagues from illness.
Flu symptoms include:
If you experience these symptoms, stay away from other people as much as possible. Remain home for at least 24 hours after your fever is gone.
Your workplace will not implode if you're not there. You might think you're doing colleagues a favor by trying not to unload your work on them. But your well-meaning attempt at teamwork could spread illness. Think about how you feel when office mates come to work with red noses, tissue-laden pockets and a cough that hurts you just to hear it. No one wants to be near them – or you – like that.
Keep children who are sick home from school and group childcare. I know it's not easy – especially when you have several children and they're all sick at different times. You'd want other parents to do the same.
If you're a student, stay home. Your professor will most likely be happy you did. If he or she gives you a problem, I'm happy to drop an email explaining why you deserve an "A" missing class. Refrain from visiting friends and even from shopping.
Refrain from shopping and any unnecessary trips. You'll prevent strangers from getting the flu – at least from you, and you won't wear yourself down more.
In addition to staying home when you're sick, cover your coughs and sneezes and wash your hands often.
Be sure to get a flu shot – especially if you are pregnant, have children, have a chronic illness are 50 or older or live or care for others at high-risk for flu complications. Make sure your children get their flu shot, too.
For information about seasonal flu, visit the United States Department of Health and Human Services web site at www.flu.gov or the New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services web site at www.nj.gov/health/flu.
To schedule an appointment with an AtlantiCare physician or for more information about AtlantiCare programs and services, call the AtlantiCare Access Center at 1-888-569-1000.

The fill power of goose down is an indicator of two important features: warmth-to-weight ratio and compressibility, both critical to retain warmth and furnish comfort. True fill power is measured by placing one ounce of goose down in a graduated cylinder and measuring the volume the down occupies in cubic inches. The North Face® products are insulated with exclusive, high-fill power goose down ranging from 550 to 900 fill, which represents the highest quality down commercially available.

I am a working mom of 2 small children. I always tossed around the idea of quilting, but not until I was bored and tired of doing things always for my family, never for myself, did I decide to try quilting as a hobby, just for me. I have loved the results and I enjoy it very much. Quilts are also great gifts as they are one of a kind and people really appreciate handmade goods and the thought, time, and love that go into them.

Results tagged ' Dwarf League '
Just Win, Baby
You know, there aren't a whole lot of scenarios in which I can think of many positive things to say about Oakland Raiders owner Al Davis, but he did coin a catchphrase that pretty much describes professional sports in a nutshell: Just win, baby.
In football, that phrase translates into doing everything possible to get the "W" on a Sunday or Monday night. In baseball, where the schedule stretches on into the dog days of summer, it comes down to winning series, something the Twins have done with remarkable success (i.e. no failure) so far this season and, with a win over Cleveland tonight, are in a great position to do so again.
Tonight, the star of the show was Kevin Slowey, who sliced his way (8 IP, 1 ER, 5 H) through the Indians lineup with relative ease, striking out nine in the process.
Offensively, the Twins were helped by an inning that one would be accustomed to seeing in Dwarf League baseball, not the majors, featuring an easy double-play ball going through SS Asdrubal Cabrera's legs, and then two runs scoring on one wild pitch.
If this single game told me anything, it is that I can say with little to no trepidation that the Cleveland Indians will be in last place come early October.
-Yesterday, this guy…
It always amazes me how quickly one can fall while playing this game. In 2003, Eric Gagne put together perhaps the greatest season by a closer in major league history: 1.20 ERA, 55 saves. After one more good season in LA, Gagne pretty much dropped off the face of the earth, never again even coming remotely close to his old dominating form. Of course, Gagne was also named in the Mitchell Report as admitting to have taken HGH. Perhaps that explains a few things.
Preview (10-4, 1st, 3.0 GA DET): David Huff (1-1, 1.80) vs. Francisco Liriano (1-0, 2.08).
