Theatre director Ivo van Hove has a soft spot for Ingmar Bergman. He has already staged Scenes from a Marriage (Scènes uit een huwelijk, 2005) and Cries and Whispers (Kreten en gefluister, 2009). Now in a full-length programme, he is directing two scripts by the Swedish theatre and film director: After the Rehearsal (Na de repetitie,1984), an essay for television about the meaning of theatre, and Persona (1966), a film Bergman himself regarded as one of his best works, about a female actor who abruptly breaks off in the middle of a scene and refuses to speak anymore. These are two short pieces about the meaning of art in our lives and in society, poised on the fragile border between imagination and reality, not moralizing but with the emphasis on man in all his inimitable complexity; tender but also as hard as nails.
Stage plays are often filmed, but you choose to do things the other way round: you have turned films by John Cassavetes, Luchino Visconti, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Michelangelo Antonioni and Ingmar Bergman into plays. Do you think theatre adds a dimension that film lacks?
Yes, I think it does. Film and theatre are two totally different disciplines. A film is made in the editing, whereas in theatre it is the live aspect that counts, with the actors themselves deciding from day to day what form that 'editing' will take. Of course I choose films in which the script or dialogue is very important, but at the same time, I only stage film scenarios if they deal with themes I don't find in plays – or only find in a very different way. This applies both to After the Rehearsal (Na de repetitie) and to Persona: I don't know of any script in the theatre repertoire that discusses theatre-making, acting and directing at such length. And a third important reason for me is that they are usually world creations; you feel as you would if you were directing Shakespeare's Hamlet for the first time and so staging a world creation ….What determines my choice is that I see a world of my own based on the scenario itself. That was certainly the case with Persona, for example – a film I saw thirty years ago and which stayed with me. It is important to me that our stage production is an autonomous production which doesn't refer to the film, even though we play every sentence as it is in the scenario and we present every situation as Bergman describes it. Then I think we can regard our theatrical interpretation as a success.
Do you find it easy to distance yourself from the visual aspects of a film and to concentrate on the script?
It might sound strange, but I have never seen some of the films. I only knew After the Rehearsal as a text. Before making a stage version of the film, I had never seen Cassavetes' Opening Night either. For me reading the film scenario is the moment of truth. I want to experience the same excitement as when I read a good stage play. I must fall in love with it, have a gut feeling that something can be done with the text on stage and that I can create my own imaginary world in the process.
You describe Ingmar Bergman as one of your favourite authors. What do you find so fascinating about his work?
First and foremost Bergman takes a truly humanistic approach to life and people: without putting a gloss on things he sometimes portrays harsh reality, but he does so with gentleness, with clemency. And secondly – despite his Strindbergian, sometimes sarcastic or even cynical stance – he always leaves a ray of hope. Though people often do terrible things to each other, a Bergman film doesn't leave you feeling crushed because there are always glimmers of a future. He is not a cultural pessimist but you can't call him an optimist either. I find this ambiguity really attractive. The audience is both relieved and affected, in my opinion because Bergman's scenarios deal with pivotal moments in our lives. "You have to touch the nerve, feel the pain to be able to heal", Bergman has the doctor say in Persona. He even puts this into practice in all his scripts: he exposes the sensitive nerve, touches the painful areas we have experienced or will experience in our lives. In Cries and Whispers that is the process of dying; in Scenes from a Marriage it is human relationships and their crises… all stages in every human life.
In the current production you make two films into a theatrical diptych. Why did you choose these two works?
Bergman never intended to put the two together. What links these films is that the central characters in both plays are people from the world of theatre. After the Rehearsal is about a theatre director for whom the stage, making art, means everything, because everything has gone wrong in his personal life: he has only experienced chaos and broken relationships. The play deals with the fragile balance between theatre and reality. Can one live alone in art, can one shut oneself off from life? Persona, on the other hand, tells the story of an actor who abruptly stops acting in the middle of a play because suddenly she doesn't see the point of it. This becomes a genuine illness: she doesn't speak any more, either on stage or in everyday life. After a painful process it appears she is suffering from a deep sense of guilt about the lack of love she feels for her son. Both plays relate to each other like yin and yang; they are each other's opposite. So when you bring them together, they give an even more complete picture. After the Rehearsal might be described as an ode to the theatre, whereas Persona questions the point of art. It is typical of Bergman that he never makes dogmatic or moralizing statements. He puts forward an idea, shows possibilities and difficulties, and then switches to the opposite, so that one surprise follows another. Bergman's scenarios evolve like the threads of a spider's web, creating what is in fact one large body of work.
In this diptych there are moments of almost superhuman intensity. As a theatre-maker can you distinguish between theatre and reality?
Fortunately I can, yes, but of course you also try to push back the boundaries. When you make theatre, you want to do it in as correct a form as possible, slicing away at it and keeping only the essence, and acting is the most important part of that. Rehearsing is a collective process. I don't want to impose anything, but I do want to stimulate. You stimulate actors, you conjure up images and that involves close teamwork, great trust. We always want to achieve the best. I am happy to take the risk that something might go wrong. When this play had its première, we had no idea if people would accept it but, as it turned out, Bergman does have a way of touching people!
At the end of Persona the doctor says rather defiantly that you have to be "fairly infantile" to be involved in theatre. I assume you don't share that opinion, but what then do you see as the significance of theatre in society?
I firmly believe that art is an absolute necessity for society. In all forms of art – whether you are looking at a painting in a museum or reading a book at home – you are confronted by an imagined, fictitious world, and that fiction deals with our greatest fears, our worst nightmares and our deepest desires. An air of threat and fear emanate from Rothko's large paintings, Hugo Claus' wonderful poems describe his deepest desires … It is very important that people learn to recognize their often very violent instincts. We are fascinated by the story of Macbeth, the monarch who murders children. What has horrified us in real life, we go and see at the theatre so that we can accommodate the violent, destructive instincts that dwell deep inside us. Art is a purification process.

Limits on FDA Advisory Committee Conflicts Clear Hurdle
The House Energy and Commerce Committee last week passed Food and Drug Administration reform legislation that will allow just one scientist with a conflict of interest to serve on any of the agency's 30-plus advisory committees. In recent years, about a quarter of the scientists on FDA advisory panels have required conflict-of-interest waivers because they had financial ties either to the company whose product was up for review or its competitors. The Senate bill passed in June did not include the one-waiver limit. The Integrity in Science project at the Center for Science in the Public Interest (publisher of this newsletter) has been lobbying for a total ban on conflict-of-interest waivers.
Other measures in the legislation that will strengthen independent science at the agency include a requirement that companies register and post results for all clinical trials beyond early stage safety tests. The bill also calls for spending an additional $225 million over the next five years to beef up surveillance of drugs and devices once they reach the market. On the down side, the bill contains no limits on direct-to-consumer advertising, a victory for the pharmaceutical and advertising industry lobbyists. After the full House passes the measure, possibly with amendments, it will move to a House-Senate conference committee where differences like the competing conflict of interest provisions will be subject to intense behind-the-scenes lobbying.
Groups Challenge EPA's Rollback of Toxics Reporting
More than 200 environmental and consumer groups last week called for legislation that would overturn the Environmental Protection Agency's new rule scaling back corporations' toxic chemical reporting requirements. Earlier this year, the EPA caved in to pressure from business lobbyists and the Small Business Administration by raising the threshold for Toxics Release Inventory reporting to 500 pounds for the most toxic compounds, such as mercury and PCBs, and 5,000 pounds for less toxic chemicals, from 100 pounds and 500 pounds, respectively. The rollbacks, billed as a means of reducing the regulatory burden for business, were protested by the EPA's own Science Advisory Board, which wrote to EPA Director Stephen L. Johnson that the changes could "hinder the advances of environmental research used to protect public health and the environment." A February Government Accountability Office (GAO) report warned the rule will curtail "information available to the public about dozens of toxic chemicals from thousands of facilities."
The rule changes have been protested by numerous Senators and Representatives, and the Senate will soon consider a bill that would force the EPA to resume requiring full reporting of toxic releases. Since toxic release reporting went into effect in 1988, corporate chemical releases have been reduced by nearly 60 percent. Observers largely credit citizen access to the data, which has generated community protests against the worst polluters and forced companies to voluntarily reduce emissions.
EPA's Proposed Ozone Standard Draws Immediate Protests
The Environmental Protection Agency last week unveiled a new ozone standard that the American Lung Association says "falls short of the goal recommended by [the EPA's own] scientific experts." Moreover, the agency's willingness to take comments for another 90 days leaves the door open to "finalizing a do-nothing standard," the health group said. Efforts by agency scientists to issue a tighter standard have been hamstrung by industry lobbyists. Ozone is the primary component of photochemical smog. The EPA's outside science advisers unanimously agreed that levels should be reduced to between 0.06 and 0.07 parts per million. Recent research has shown that the new proposed level - 0.075 ppm, down from 0.085 ppm in place since 1997 - can be harmful to infants, asthma patients, and even healthy adults.
Hunters Bag Cooperative Conservation Agreement
Deputy Secretary of the Interior Lynn Scarlett, former chief executive of the libertarian Reason Foundation, last week unveiled the Cooperative Conservation Enhancement Act, which she billed as a way to provide funding for environmental protection through encouraging government partnerships with the private sector. The concept had been endorsed by the Sporting Conservation Council, an Interior Department advisory committee dominated by hunting groups. Eleven of twelve members on the Sporting Conservation Council, which is organized under the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), belong to hunting groups, including the National Rifle Association, the Congressional Sportsmen's Foundation and Safari Club International, which has come under attack from the Humane Society for actively working to undermine the Endangered Species Act. FACA requires that advisory committees, even those that make policy recommendations, be balanced with regard to points of view.
Odds and Ends
A new report from the Government Accountability Office found that the Environmental Protection Agency ignored the advice of its outside experts when it developed methods for testing toxic dust from the World Trade center attacks in lower Manhattan, leaving local residents with misleading information about possible health risks.

It was a steamy mid-July day, and there I was, lugging three opened bottles of wine in an insulated bag as I trekked from one prospective customer to the next. But as a professional wine salesman, I had confidence that the contents were in good shape, because I had sealed the bottles with my Vacu-Vin Wine Saver, whose sole mission is to protect wine from exposure to air, which accelerates oxidation.
Don't get me wrong. Oxygen in wine isn't all bad. Starved of it, a wine can go into what is known as reduction, which creates hydrogen sulfide aromas. Without any oxygen, the esters and aromas that we love to sniff would not be released when we open a bottle of wine. What's more, in a controlled setting, oxidation gives us fabulous Sherry and Tokaji and Madeira wines.
Uncontrolled, however, exposure to air starts the slow process of oxidation, a time bomb that starts ticking the moment a cork is popped or a screw cap is untwisted. It causes the wine to smell increasingly less inviting and taste less fresh while on its way toward becoming undrinkable.
Because there are 25 one-ounce pours in every standard-size, 750 ml bottle of wine, salespeople can cart around opened bottles of wine for days — hence the popularity of the Vacu-Vin Wine Saver. The inexpensive pumping device comes with a rubber stopper that you stick into the bottleneck after you've poured some wine. To seal it, you place the gadget over the stopper, create a vacuum by hand-pumping the oxygen out of the bottle.
The next time you go to pour a taste of wine, you release the rubber stopper and hear the reassuring schwoop of a vacuum that's been unsealed. That's how you know the Wine Saver is working. Or is it?

The Arkansas Senate has approved legislation expanding the Board of Finance's oversight of the state treasurer's office in response to an audit that criticized Treasurer Martha Shoffner's investment practices.
The Senate voted 35-0 Tuesday to approve the bill expanding the size and oversight of the state Board of Finance. The proposal by Republican Sen. Jason Rapert of Conway would give the board the authority to hire and fire the chief investment officer for the treasurer.
The proposal was in response to a legislative audit last year that said Shoffner's decision to sell bonds before they matured cost the state more than $434,000 in earnings.
Rapert's proposal now heads to the House.

Tomato sauce!?
Tomato sauce!?
WARNING: This person will almost CERTAINLY inadvertently derail any conversation he participates in.
Commissar Pancakes' Channel of Random Blather:
Shigeru was a badass, killing 2 aliens the previous mission and 6 in the next
.....And then he died
X-Com, resplendent in their new personal armour, look to protect the Earth form a much larger than normal UFO. Except for "Come On! I can take it!" Sathra who seems to prefer his coveralls.
Amazingly Arioch isn't killed moments after saving a comrade. Having said that, 'comrade' Gorlom died in the next attack. But it means the infamous Gorlom/ Gaudlike opening act doesn't get out of the Skyranger together. Coveralls Sathra ending a tradition there.
Gaaah! it's the Chrysalids! The whole Skyranger could be turned into a Romero extras party if we're not careful here! Fortunately 'Killzone' Myamoto is on the case and puts the horrible thing down.
But a creature seemingly designed to instil terror in night missions isn't avoided for long. Arioch becomes a carrier of a Chrysalid egg. Myamoto shows little remorse in gunning down both the shell of his comrade and the inky nightmare that killed all that he was.
An enraged Sathra rushes the UFO. Fortunately the two Chrysalids he encounters are at range and he manages to dispatch them before they can act.
As usual the aliens don''t aggressively try to hold their ship and Sathra and Myamoto are able to take the fight to them.
'It's behind the building!' shouts everyone in the Skyranger as the partially deaf Gauddlike goes on a protracted search in the wrong direction. His dithering forces Solo to leave the Skyranger. Right into the face of the approaching Chrysalid. Didn't I just warn everyone about that? Didn't I ?
if you have to do something right...mutters thothkins as he's sent out to stand in the open near a grenade wielding alien (thanks). Fortunately., it hasn't launched anything for a while indicating that it might be out of ammo. it's taken out and the mission ends with only the sad, yet frequent, deaths of Gorlom and Arioch.
The team's next mission is more like a fag break around the Skyranger. A couple of the guys stretch their legs while Killzone Myamoto kills everything in sight.
But even Myamoto is taken aback by the four Sectoids sighted immediately in the craft. Well, taken aback by a picosecond as two of them fall in the same round. Only the last puts up any resistance in the choking fumes of the crashed vessel. Then there were none. Another country safe from probing for a few hours.
The aliens get paid monthly and usually take in a terror mission when they go to collect their pay slips. This month it's Lagos.
Despite our mocking 'coveralls' Sathra is the only one of us remotely prepared for the heat. Terror missions are long ones too, so this is going to be draining.
Gaudlike is the first to draw Muton fire, but Killzone Myamoto is taken out, unable to disable the target with the first burst. Solo is lucky not to follow Myamoto as he rushed out of the Skyranger, into reaction fire.
Reluctant to leave the comfort of the Skyranger DVD player, Thousand Yard Stare thothkins fires from inside it, in a move that is rarely successful and fails utterly here.
Will thothkins leave the Skyranger?
Will Sathra get proper armour?
Will Myamoto get a few more kills , even as a corpse?
Will Arioch get revived from the vats?
Find out next time, on Tales from the Skyranger...
Seemingly risen from the lagoons that Lagos was formed around, rose the Mutons. Terror descended on the metropolis...
there's quite a turnout from the Skyranger for this one. Seemingly this is partly because some of the soldiers are collecting aliens in their backpacks. the X-Com alternative to Pokemon.
thothkins prefers to get on with the mission, but has to survive some reaction fire on the Skyranger ramp.One of X-Coms dreaded moments is replayed as a grenade is launched into the landing zone. ResFu falls victim.
The Mutons are not alone. They have brought Silacoid. this means that in a dozen turns the soldiers will have to be careful not to step in one. Nfire7 steps into Myamoto's X-Com issue army boots and sweeps the area. With a little help form a sniper shot from Gauddlike.
It's something we're going to live through again with the Sebilians. The Mutons just won't stay down. The good news is that they never seem to rearm themselves.
No rest for the underpaid as we once again trot of into the former Soviet Union.
It's pitch black. So naturally, you want to face the creature with the natural camouflage for such missions. But wait, it's not a Chrysalid..it's a Sectoid. that means they're armed. Quick warn "Skins" Sathra before it's ah..too late. Our scout is taken down by the iconic Sectoid in a cornfield. Horrifically, Solo runs straight into reaction fire leaving the Skyranger and is also killed. the night closes like a darkened fist around the X-Com craft.
Our other scout, Gauddlike tries to clear a path through to the attacking fire, but the plasma bursts seemingly come from nowhere. Who would want tall grass in a game!
complaining about the lack of available Rookies, thothkins is sent out into the same spot that just killed off Solo. Predictably there are three plasma shots from the grass cover. Miraculously, thothkins is unscathed.
yet strangely thothkins seeks no cover whatsoever before the end of the turn. Historians will look back and place the name Wolfy in with the deranged first world war generals who would lead their troops to suicide.
In a defiant "You'll never clone me in the vats!" our plucky (former) survivor is shot. At least I got shot by an UFOlogy icon, thinks thothkins, and detonates a primed grenade.
everything goes dark...
"That's pretty much everything," said Gorlom putting the small audio recorder into a cardboard box. Didn't take long."
"Yeah," muttered Kilrathi ruefully. "None of us are here long enough to collect much crap. Anything on the tape?"
"Nothing interesting," grunted his colleague, hefting the box onto his shoulder. "What's on in the rec room flicks this week?"
"I don't look that far ahead son," said the Captain, turning off the light.
This has been Tales from the Skyranger...

"...not having to believe in a thing to be interested in it and not having to explain a thing to appreciate the wonder of it."
Both Gorlom and Kilrathi were later sentenced to cleaning the latrines with their only toothbrush for attempting to shove a stack of pancakes into thothkin's old video player.
It is reported that the stack of pancakes is suing them for their entire salary for the next 2 years made in payments of cheese.

Move over Kim Kardashian and Snooki, the newest sexy mommas to hit the reality TV circuit are sexy, sassy, and they're grandmas.
But, don't expect them to be knitting booties or pushing walkers along the Jersey Shore. Dubbing themselves "Glam-Mas," they're poised to make their debut in a reality TV show, "America's Most Georgeous Glam-Mas," according to spokesperson, Roger Neal.
Shirley Jones, 77, of the Partridge Family will lead the pack of eight 42- to 77-year-olds on the show. She's been tapped as the celebrity spokesperson, expected to be announced later this week, sayid Neal. Currently the show's producers are in "very serious" negotiations with various networks, Neal added.
Another icon appearing on the show will be Donna Douglas, 77, known as Elly May Clampett on the Beverly Hillbillies.
"So many women feel that when they become a grandma they can no longer be sexy and beautiful," said Rex Toto, the show's creator and co-executive producer. "Our show will feature active, vivacious grandma's who are talented. It's time grandmas become active and feel sexy again."
The "Glam-Mas" cast members will share their daring deeds, bare all their beauty secrets and do what grandma's do—help take care of the kids, said Neal. The show will have a philanthropic spin, with the Glams expected to make appearances for fundraising events for sick children.
Other's lined up for the cast include: Jana Leigh McHorter, 49, one of eight women in the world who walks the wings of airplanes; Corrine Walker, 50, a professional model. and Elaine Blumberg, 72, author of "Save Your Money, SaveYour Face."
Evidently, there's already a holiday reserved for Gorgeous Glam-Mas, July 23, according to Chase's Calendar of Events.

North America leading with innovative climate policies
- Date
- 17 June 2011
NEW YORK: The Climate Group North America is pleased to present our latest report Leading the Way: Policy Design for a Clean Revolution, which showcases the tremendous progress made by cities, states and regions across North America that are leading the Clean Revolution with innovative climate policies.
The report details the efforts of sub-national governments advancing low carbon policies that are providing both greenhouse gas reductions and economic benefits, showing how North America is quietly leading the charge as well as highlighting what is possible, by example, in a low carbon world.
This policy briefing highlights three interesting case studies which provide specific insight into how policy can be designed to reduce emissions, cut energy costs and be politically feasible, including:
- New York's investments from their Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative auction proceeds in clean energy, energy efficiency and building their green economy;
- California's investment in small-scale solar electric power systems through their California Solar Initiative; and
- Manitoba's energy efficiency and energy conservation efforts through Manitoba Hydro's Power Smart program.
These actions at the sub-national level provide clear evidence that the Clean Revolution is not only underway but also proof that climate change action is feasible—and benefits government, business and citizens alike.
The Climate Group has long heralded the role of states and regions through its global network of States and Regions. In North America alone, our States and Regions network (California, Manitoba, New York, Ontario and Quebec) boasts nearly 150 low carbon policies, that are at various stages of development and are supporting the Clean Revolution by reducing carbon through energy efficiency measures, clean energy, smart-cities, clean transport, fiscal measures and more.

Full SubmissionRECOMMENDATIONS OF THE NIGERIAN MAJOR GROUPS ON RIO + 20 AT A ONE DAY WORKSHOP HELD ON THE 6TH SEPTEMBER 2011,BOLTON WHITE HOTEL, ABUJA, NIGERIA 1.0 BACKGROUND TO THE WORKSHOP The United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development (UNCSD) is being organized in pursuance of General Assembly Resolution 64/236 (A/RES/64/236). The Conference will take place in Brazil on 4-6 June 2012 to mark the 20th anniversary of the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED), in Rio de Janeiro, and the 10th anniversary of the 2002 World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD) in Johannesburg. In order to ensure high quality inputs to the Conference, the Second Committee of the General Assembly called for efficient and effective preparations at the local, national, regional and international levels by Governments and the United Nations system and encouraged the active participation of all major groups at all stages of the preparatory process. Against this background, Women Environmental Programme in Partnership with Clean Energy and Safe Environment Initiative, International Center for Energy, Environment and Development, Friends of the Earth, Nigeria/Environmental Rights Action and the Nigerian Climate Action Network organized a One Day National Consultative Workshop of the Nigeria Major Groups at Bolton White Hotel, Abuja on the 6th of September, 2011. The consultative workshop aimed at creating awareness and soliciting inputs and contributions for inclusion in a compilation document of the Nigerian government serving as basis for the preparation of zero draft of the conference outcome document. The workshop drew over 70 participants from across the major groups which consisted of business and industry, children and youth, farmers, civil society organizations, farmers, local authorities, indigenous people, women, the scientific and technological community and trade unions, government representatives, international non-governmental organizations, donor agencies and the diplomatic missions in Nigeria. 2.0 TECHNICAL AND PLENARY SESSIONS The workshop plenary sessions, covered a broad spectrum of issues related to Rio+20, with presentations made by renowned and professionals on different thematic areas such as; Achieving Sustainable Development in Nigeria Rio+20 years by Ambassador AdamuEmozozo, Director with the Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Green economy and environmental governance, the Nigerian perspective?s- Professor ChinedumNwajuiba, Synergies between the Rio conventions: Assessing Implementation-HuziMshelia, Climate Change and the success of Rio+20- Mr. NnimmoBassey, New and Emerging issues- the Energy Crisis- Mr. EwaEleri and Gender Perspectives in the Green Economy and the Poverty Eradication in Nigeria by Ms. Lesley Agams. During the plenary, participants deliberated and took stock of the alarming state of the environment, poverty and inequalities that exist in Nigeria and expressed its disappointment with the widely perceived failure of Nigerian government to live up to the commitments taken at the 1992 Rio Conference.They also noted the new and emerging threats to the environment and people, such as the global warming, energy Crisis, threatening food security, water and sanitation, technological innovation as ?green economy?which could cause irreparable damage to nature and human health, as well as create new sources of poverty and inequalities. Participants noted that the concept of green economy is characterizedby widespread inequalities and whichare viewed as inefficient, unsustainable and inequitable with economic policies that advance rather than promote the concept of sustainable development and therefore agreed that there is the need for the concept of the green economy to be properly understood based on our national circumstances, so that it does not cause dislocation or shock to the national economy. One of the major outcomes of the Nigerian Major Groups recommendation is that the concept of ?green economy? should not replace ?sustainable development? and advocated forsocial equity, economic sufficiency as a framework within which to pursue more sustainable production and consumption patterns. On the institutional framework, the group noted the failure of global environmental governance to push ideals of the original Rio for sustainable development. The group advocated a coordinating mechanism and parallel institutions at the national level, empowered to pursue system-wide policy coherence, accountable and truly participatory decision-making processes. In this regard, they called fora clear coordinated framework of United Nations agencies arestrengthened with the Commission on Sustainable development elevated to a status of a Council with decision making mandate where United Nations EnvironmentProgrammeis transformed into a specialized institution for the environment Some of the other recommendations include; Global Level 1. Participants argued that creating a green economy in the context of sustainable development and poverty eradication will need to be built through the bottom up approach, responding to national and local priorities and challenges and therefore called on government to ensure that policy formulations are based on the use of bottom ? up approach involving all critical stakeholders especially women and youths as well as community participation. 2. The UN estimates that approximately 70% of the 1.3 billion people living on less than one dollar a day are women, and these figures are rising with current environmental and climatic changes resulting into food Crisis, flooding, famine etc in Africa. We need an economy that provides incentives for zero-waste, low-carbon economies that enhance and restore the natural environment, thus providing new green livelihoods, employment and entrepreneurial opportunities for women as well as men. 3. Food and Agriculture: Push for ecological, non-chemical the implementation of the International Assessment of Agricultural Knowledge, Science and Technology for Development (IAASTD) reportand demand for follow-up process to ensure a rethink of the model of industrial agriculture. This will involve policy work up to and beyond Rio+20. The IAASTD clearly showed that genetic engineering will not occupy a significant niche in feeding the world in the years to come and that effort should be focused on enabling small scale family farming. This is a clear way for securing livelihoods in Nigeria and indeed Africa where the majority of our people are small-scale farmers, fishermen or pastoralists. 4. Gender sensitive policies can best be achieved through gender mainstreaming; an approach which ensures that concerns and needs of both men and women are considered in all planning and policy-making is critical. Therefore, government?s officials and staff members need targeted training and capacity building to raise their awareness of gender disparities and discrimination against women. Regional Level 5. The New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD) is revitalized, implemented and monitored with actionable indicators so as to ensure effective vertical and horizontal linkages, as well as effectiveness implementation on NEPAD's Principles, Programme of Action, Priorities and desired OutcomeCountry Level. Government of Nigeria 6. Nigeria is naturally endowed with human and natural resources, there is ample evidence that small businesses, with its resources and capabilities, can play a vital role in helping achieve the goals related to sustained economic growth in an environmentally and socially responsible manner, and therefore call on government to create an enabling environment (energy, security etc.), where small scale businesses can strive. 7. The private sector can play a key role in achieving the goals of sustainable development, especially in poverty reduction. Most of the people in Nigeria work in the private sector, either as self-employed, small entrepreneurs, farmers, small and medium size enterprises, employees of larger corporation etc. They generate employment, goods, food and most of the items and services that people use every day. The participants therefore call on government to create an enabling environment for the private sector to be engaged to fill the implementation gaps that have limited achievements of the goals of sustainable development and to address the new and emerging challenges. 8. The Nigerian participation in Rio +20 is critical as a leader and largest country on the African continent, therefore the workshop participants called on the Nigerian government to make its positions available to the major groups so that inputs can be made to enrich it. 9. The nine major groups needs to have a more and better coordinated networking, advocacy and sensitization mechanisms involving governments and other stakeholders in the preparation for Rio +20 and implementation of the outcomes of Rio conference is imperative and therefore called for the establishment of a national coordinating council comprising of all the major groups and government representatives. 10. The participants called on the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Dr. Jonathan EbeleGoodluck for the signing into law the National Climate Change Commission bill. 11. The need for government, ministries, department and agencies (MDAs) to create an enabling environment framework that are critical to effective and successful implementation of sustainability policies and conventions at national level. 12. The participation and involvement of youths, the disabled, aged, physically challenge in environmental policies/ decision making issues, participation and financing of these category of persons to programs and events. 13. The government of Nigeria should make adequate budgetary provision for the major group?s participation at the Rio + 20 and the implementation of its outcome. Signed for and on behalf of the Nigerian Major Groups 1. Priscilla M Achakpa- Women Environmental Programme 2. HuziMshelia ? Clean Energy and Safe Environment Initiative 3. EwaEleri- International Center for Energy, Environment and Development/Nigerian Climate Action Network 4. NnimmoBassey- Friends of the Earth, Nigeria/Environmental Rights Action

Yes, I am aware that these are way past their original release date of last fall. I saw them at one of my local candy haunts and thought I'd swipe them up before they disappeared or end up inedible. So here you are .The code on the back says 727FRCLVO*, so they're really not past their prime.
The package is an obnoxious bright pink with, I'm guessing, a relative of Red standing behind a large raspberry made of M&Ms pieces (logo and all) with a very sassy look on his face. With an expression like that, I'd expect it to be reserved for Green!
The actual M&Ms are on the larger side, about the same as I remember the old Crispy M&Ms being. They share the same bright pink color as the packaging with the white "M" stamped onto them. There's no aroma so it's hard to gage what the flavor will be like.
As for the taste, well, it's…odd. I admit they do taste like raspberry, but not the type of raspberry you'd want to be eating. It's terribly artificial with strong floral notes that really overpower any actual "berry" flavor present. It's such a loud flavor and it reminds me of old Bath and Body works perfume: powerfully smelly and so far removed from the natural essence that it's hard to identify it anymore. Thankfully you do taste the chocolate. It provides a brief respite from the "razzberry" taste and delivers a solid chocolate flavor and a good sweetness.
After tasting a few of these I feel like I had perfume sprayed on my tongue.
I'm glad that these were a limited edition release that didn't last too long. The concept of the raspberry flavor is good, but the execution of the flavors really don't work for me. They're best to be avoided.
Rating: Not Worth It

Poitou donkeys.
Donkeys' tough digestive system is somewhat less prone to colic than that of horses, can break down near-inedible vegetation and extract moisture from food very efficiently.
Donkeys have a notorious reputation for stubbornness, but this has been attributed to a much stronger sense of "self preservation" than exhibited by horses.[14] Likely based on a stronger prey instinct and a weaker connection with man, it is considerably more difficult to force or frighten a donkey into doing something it perceives to be dangerous for whatever reason. Once a person has earned their confidence they can be willing and companionable partners and very dependable in work.[citation needed]
Although formal studies of their behaviour and cognition are rather limited, donkeys appear to be quite intelligent, cautious, friendly, playful, and eager to learn.

This time, the famed band, which is known for its work on Fleetwood Mac's "Tusk," is in town for the USC Trojans Pac 12 game against the University of Utah' Running Utes on Thursday at Rice-Eccles Stadium.
To celebrate, the musicians will perform a march down Main Street on Wednesday afternoon.
"The band had so much fun last time that the director, Dr. Art Bartner, called me and said he wanted to bring the band back to Park City because they had so much fun," said Mac MacQuoid, a Parkite and USC graduate who organized the event.
Out of the 250 musicians that are part of the band, 100 will be in town for the game.
"Since the U. is new to the Pac 12, the stadium isn't big enough for the whole band to come," MacQuoid explained. "Of that 100, we'll have 16 musicians come up to Park City for the march."
The musicians, escorted by the Park City Police, will begin their Main Street march at 5 p.m. and make a couple of stops down the road to stop and play a piece or two, he said.
"It's just a way to build the spirit of a great rivalry in the years to come," said MacQuoid who has been a Park City resident since 1980. "There is so much association between people in Park City and Southern California with second homes and all that, and I think this will rekindle that fire.
After the march, the band will head to a reception that will be held at St. Regis Deer Valley with members of the local University of Utah's Crimson Club.
"It's sort of a way to welcome the Trojans to town and start this wonderful rivalry," MacQuoid said. "We did a similar thing when the Utes came to Los Angeles last year and it was a lot of fun."
The USC Trojan Band reception will start a 6 p.m. Tickets are $30. Reservations can be made by calling (435) 640-0117.

Short Timers: A Roll Call Of Dallas School Superintendents
A long line of leaders of Dallas schools has come and gone since August 1884 when a man named W. A. Boles was elected superintendent. KERA's Shelley Kofler looks at this revolving door of superintendents in a story that aired today.
It's worth noting, that in a quarter century, no Dallas school district superintendent has lasted more than six years. Through the years, there have been some retirements, resignations, firings, a few interims and even a prison sentence.

Gardening Articles: Landscaping :: Trees, Shrubs, & Vines
Getting Smart About Chain Saws (page 3 of 4)
by William Bryant Logan
To start with, never try to fell a tree that has a trunk diameter greater than the bar length of your saw. Look before you cut. Make sure there is room for the falling tree, so that it won't bounce off or get hung up in any other tree, or come close to power lines or your neighbor's roof. Also, check the lean of the tree to make sure it is not tending away from the direction in which you want it to fall, and clear away any underbrush and low-growing branches. Logging is this country's most dangerous occupation, and a major reason is loggers cutting in tight stands that drop trees against other trees, which in turn drop heavy branches right onto the loggers.
There must be room not only for the tree to fall, but also for you to get away. Make sure of a clear escape path at 45 degrees to both sides of the fall line. If there's no clear path, make one, cutting away brush as needed. Once the tree begins to fall, exit quickly and calmly along one of these paths.
To make good on all your plans, however, you need to make cuts that will direct the tree to fall where you want it to. The keys to directional cutting are an open-face cut that will allow the trunk to fall gently toward the ground, and a hinge that will control the rate and direction of the fall.
Start the open-face cut by making a steeply angled slice downward, no more than a quarter of the way into the trunk, on the side toward which you want the tree to fall. Finish the face with a shallower angle cut upward, until it meets the downward cut. Face cuts used to be made at 45 degree angles, but a 90 degree open face--a 65 degree top cut and a 35 degree bottom cut--is better for controlled felling, since the top of the tree will hit the ground before the trunk breaks free of the hinge.
Next, move to the opposite side of the tree, check your escape paths, and begin to make the felling cut. It should enter straight and level, parallel to the ground, at or just above the level where the two parts of the face cut meet. The felling cut should stop 1 to 1-1/2 inches before it meets the face cut. This line of uncut wood--the hinge--is now all that holds the tree up. If there is any lean at all in the direction of the fall, the tree will fall of its own accord. If not, encourage it by driving one or two plastic wedges (available from your saw dealer) into the straight cut.
At this satisfying moment, you shout Headache!" and escape, watching the tree fold gently to the ground.
