It's easy and exciting to say that social and economic empowerment should go hand-in-hand. But how does that end up changing lives for girls in countries like Tanzania? Here's a hint, as published recently in The Guardian:
"...self-reported condom usage rose 12.6 percentage points among those participants who are sexually active, and two years after they entered the programme, fertility rates were 28.6% lower compared to a control sample. Participants' reports of having sex unwillingly decreased by 83% from the baseline during a one-year period, which the report calls the clearest marker for the programme changing how empowered adolescent girls are in their relations with men."
That's the kind of impact BRAC's empowerment and livelihoods for adolescents (ELA) approach aims for -- real behavioral change that has an impact on future generations too. Everyone, from us at BRAC USA to BRAC's field staff to ELA club mentors to club members to future children of ELA club alumna, is grateful to count you as partners in making that happen.
Today in Bangladesh, there are over 105,000 women who are proud to call themselves Shasthya Shebikas, the army of BRAC-trained and branded para-professionals who provide basic healthcare to their neighbors in some of the world's poorest villages and slums. A lot of that pride comes from knowing they are just the latest generation in a tradition of women living in poverty themselves who have stepped up nonetheless to become leaders for development -- a tradition that extends back to the 1970s, when BRAC first started piloting and then scaling up its community health model featuring these women from poor communities in such a central role.
As you may have read earlier this year, these women were recognized for their work by Dr. Atul Gawande, author of The Checklist Manisfesto, in an article for the The New Yorker, "Slow ideas: Some some innovations spread fast. How do you speed the ones that don't?" Dr. Gawande calls their early work "stunningly successful," as they started out by targeting child deaths due to diarrhea.
Today that tradition of stunning success, on a massive scale, continues thanks to your support.
With the support of the Nike Foundation, BRAC's girl effect work in Bangladesh continues to make important strides forward in improving the social as well as economic standing of girls in their community. BRAC Bangladesh reports that 65 percent of club members in Bangladesh now have a savings account with the program, showing how they are putting in action the lessons they've learned so far about financial literacy.
Club committees have also been established for 360 clubs, made up of older members of the community who may be club alumnae or may otherwise be interested in supporting the clubs locally. Thirteen of the committees have even successfully established local trust funds expressly for that purpose.
As BRAC had experienced decades ago with its microfinance village organizations using philanthropic capital as a catalyst to reach self-sustainability, that same transformation is taking root with our adolescent girls programming, and everyone is grateful to have you on that journey with us.

Although it would be the last thing he would want I have begun to think of the Denver Broncos as the Denver Tebows. I have always been a cowboys fan but that has changed. I wish the cowboys had a fraction of his leadership ability . I wish I did.Though vain and profane George Patton was arguably the greatest military leader of all time . A humble and decent man Tebow is footballs finest leader and is doing a great deal to repair the NFLs player image. When he takes the field I get the same feeling I do when the American Flag is presented. Here is something good and honorable . You know in your heart this guy will always be a winner.

Wait till he gets caught in the restroom with Senator Larry Craig. Teblow will say "the Senator ia an awesome guy, my zipper was stuck and he offered to help me over the fence."

Good Design, Everyday Objects:
10 Modern Door Stops
Last Stop airplane door stop from Fred & Friends certainly has humor on its side. • A super-subtle improvement on the classic wooden wedge, I can see this Ashwood door stop in red, from House by John Lewis, working in a child's room or kitchen. • My favorite might just be the beautiful Ooob bookend and door stop from Headsprung. I like the multi-functionality of the piece, and the fact that the silicone won't harm wooden floors (or doors). • This brightly-colored leaf door stop from the MoMA Store is pretty fun, and I like it for a back door or mudroom. • Talk about glam- this gold bar door stop by Eno, from Made in Design, is another favourite of mine. Bottom Row: • James the Doorman from black + blum will hold open your door all day without getting tired. • Like almost everything from Anthropologie, this gold-beaked door stop is charming, with a hand-crafted feel. • The Compact Cassette door wedge from Not on the High Street is another tongue-in-cheek option. • A little different from the traditional stop, the Flexy from Lee Valley is a twisted piece of plastic which will keep a door open just a smudge- enough for airflow or to protect little fingers. • Also from Lee Valley, the Stoppy protects doors and floors with its silicone-covered S-shape. Do you use door stops in your home? What style do you favor? Images: As linked above

Muhsin Yazıcıoğlu (December 31, 1954 – March 25, 2009) was a Turkish politician and member of the Parliament of Turkey. He was the leader and founder of the Great Union Party (BBP), a right-wing, nationalist-Islamist political party.[1][2]
Yazıcıoğlu was born 1954 in a small village named Elmalı in Şarkışla of Sivas Province. He studied in Şarkışla from primary school to high school after that he was educated at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in Ankara University. He was a member of Grey Wolves struggling for anti-communism during the 1970s. After 1980 Turkish coup d'état, he was arrested for being one of the leaders of Grey Wolves. He stayed for 7 years in prison without any proven crimes. After the years of imprisonment, he was released in 1987 by being cleared of blame. In the following years, he involved in politics under Nationalist Movement Party. In 1991, he and some of his fellows left this movement and established a new political party called Great Union Party next year.
His party has been represented in the Parliament only via electoral coalitions with popular parties. At the 2002 legislative elections, the party won 1.1% of the popular vote and no seats; in the 2007 elections Muhsin Yazıcıoğlu was elected as an independent.
Yazıcıoğlu died on March 25, 2009, in a helicopter crash[1][2] in the south-eastern Turkish province of Kahramanmaraş, after a political rally there on the way to the next rally in Yozgat just four days before the local elections. Thousands of people joined his funeral ceremony in Kocatepe Mosque in Ankara. After his death in 2009 local elections the BBP's candidate was elected as the new mayor of Sivas.

North Korea Plays A Scary Game Of Chicken
North Korea's needs are great. But it is having to shout loudly to be heard. In fact, their latest tactics, including the recent firing of a missile over Japan, are just about the only way North Korean officials can get the West to pay attention.
North Korea is pressing for diplomatic recognition from Washington, more aid from the West, and hard-currency investments from the rest of the world. But they've found that the best way to get what they want is to step up their security threat to Northeast Asia. "It's a very risky game--walking the line between jeopardizing relations with the international community and showing military muscle," says Charles K. Armstrong, a Korea expert at Columbia University's East Asian Institute.
The game could quickly turn into an alarming diplomatic version of chicken. Whether or not Pyongyang's missile simply launched a satellite playing patriotic songs to celebrate Kim Jong Il's Sept. 5 formal installation as head of state, as the North Koreans insist, it did mark a distinct step-up in the country's missile capabilities. And that, say analysts, intensifies proliferation headaches. Iran, for example, has already used older North Korean technology to develop missiles that can hit Saudi Arabia and Israel.
SMALL BEER. North Korea's tactics are rapidly painting the Clinton Administration into a corner. The more menacing North Korea becomes, the greater the opposition in Congress--and in Tokyo--to any concessions. The Senate version of the foreign aid bill that was passed on Sept. 2, for instance, bars promised funds to Pyongyang unless inspections establish that both North Korea's nuclear-weapons program and its exports of missile technology have halted. Already, Congress hobbled the Administration by voting just half the funds needed for fuel-oil deliveries promised to North Korea in a 1994 agreement. "What we've essentially done is moved the goalposts," says Robert A. Manning, director of Asian studies at the Council on Foreign Relations. "There was no conditionality in the 1994 [agreement]."
Indeed, the North Koreans argue that the U.S. has failed to deliver on several other 1994 promises to reduce obstacles to trade, restore diplomatic relations, and build two nuclear reactors. Some of what the North Koreans are seeking is small beer. They want their star 7-foot 9-inch basketball player to be able to play on a U.S. team, for example, and for North Korean hotels to be allowed to accept Visa and MasterCard. Washington has refused--until the North Koreans agree to tension-reducing measures, such as installing a cold-war-style hotline.
All this comes when Kim is trying to consolidate his power as the country sinks into famine and economic collapse. Over the past two years, he has promoted 120 young officers to general. Now, analysts say, he has packed the Cabinet so that 23 of the 34 posts are newly filled with his loyalists. "Kim Jong Il is likely to whip up hatred and alertness against outside forces to divert [attention from] internal difficulties," says Jo Myong Chol, a former North Korean university professor who defected to South Korea in 1994.
The Clinton Administration's strategy so far has been to buy time. But its gamble that North Korea would be completely absorbed by internal problems and that Kim wouldn't be able to maintain his power has failed. Instead of becoming so weak that it would accept Washington's terms, North Korea is rattling its saber so much that events could easily spin out of control.

Much of my current research is dedicated to two projects at different stages of completion. I'm currently finishing up a book called Archive of the Animal: Science, Sacrifice, and the Parchment Inheritance, which explores the parchment record of the Western tradition from a number of different angles (environmental history, animal studies, zooarchaeology, theologies of sacrifice, etc.). A longer-term book project, The Work of God: Liturgical Culture and Vernacular Writing in Britain, 550-1550 (under contract with University of Chicago Press), examines the shaping role of liturgical culture in the history of literary writing, from the earliest known vernacular survivals in the sixth century to the coming of common prayer in the sixteenth. Previous books have treated literary-musical relations, the medievalism of theory, and the neomedievalist rhetoric of the war on terror. I've also written a historical novel, A Burnable Book, set in London in 1385 and featuring John Gower and Geoffrey Chaucer (the book will be published by HarperCollins in the UK and William Morrow in the US early in 2014).

Depression/depressive Disorders
A depressive disorder is an illness that involves the body, mood, and thoughts. It affects the way a person eats and sleeps, the way one feels about oneself, and the way one thinks about things. A depressive disorder is not the same as a passing blue mood. It is not a sign of personal weakness or a condition that can be willed or wished away. People with a depressive illness cannot merely "pull themselves together" and get better.
Found in some over-the-counter weight loss formulas, this extract from a West African plant seed contains a contaminant linked to a rare and potentially deadly blood disorder. It has not been proven to effectively promote weight loss.

Stone Age Boat Discovered Off the Coast of Denmark
Thursday, September 04, 2014
ROSKILDE, DENMARK—A submerged Stone Age settlement and a boat were discovered off the coast of Denmark's Askø Island. The vessel shows signs of repairs. "It split 6,500 years ago and they tried to fix the crack by putting a bark strip over it and drilling holes on both sides of it. The most exciting thing is that there is sealing mass in the holes. We have found sealing mass before—such as bits of resin that children have chewed on and made flexible," Jørgen Dencker of the Viking Ship Museum told The Copenhagen Post. Dencker and his team will look for additional artifacts made of organic materials in the submerged Stone Age settlement.

Cool original style, comfy beds with lots of pillows, love the blackout shades! relaxing front porch, friendly staff and walking distance to the touristy stuff
The skylight in my room had a fair sized gap between the window and the roof. The blackout shades didn't cover that little gap and the early morning sun was harsh. It poured rain one night and I couldn't sleep for fear of my belongings getting ruined, then after I moved them I was afraid the window would come crashing in

Tables: Hedge Funds -- The Best, The Worst, The Biggest
Biotechnology seems to be part of Joseph Edelman's genetic makeup.
His late father was the chairman of the biochemistry department at Columbia University, and created a biotech company that was sold to Celltech Group, a British drug outfit. At the age of 13, Edelman started working in his father's lab, but then veered from the biotech path to major in psychology at the University of California at San Diego and get an M.B.A. from New York University. He then spent 11 years as a biotech analyst at a brokerage and two asset-management firms, prior to launching his hedge fund, Perceptive Life Sciences, in July 1999 with just $6 million in assets.
New York-based Perceptive has thrived. Today, it runs $955 million and has posted excellent results by investing in a notoriously volatile and risky business, in which most new drugs fail, whether in the lab, the regulatory maze, or the marketplace.
BACKED BY SIX pharmaceutical-industry analysts, the 58-year-old Edelman is known for selecting the right products. "The critical thing we are doing is evaluating the science and the data to decide whether a drug will work and whether it will be approved," says Edelman, adding that he focuses mostly on early clinical information. "If we think there is a higher probability that a drug will work than the Street does, we may have a long on that position."
Or, as in the case of Canada's Oncolytics Biotech (ticker: ONCY), he may be skeptical and have a short position. Edelman didn't believe in the firm's Reolysin, a product for the treatment of head and neck cancer, because it didn't work without administering other drugs at the same time. He also thought the clinical trials fell short of Oncolytics' initial promises. He shorted Oncolytics in January 2011, when it was trading at about $6 a share. It's now around $1.50, and he still hasn't covered his position.
"If we think there is a higher probability that a drug will work than the Street does," Edelman is inclined to buy. Jordan Hollender for Barron's
Edelman claims his scientific analysis of every step in the development of a new pharmaceutical gives him an advantage over sell-side analysts, whom he says often are reluctant to admit mistakes and don't react fast enough to new information. Perceptive derives most of its returns by buying and selling stocks that stay in the portfolio for years. The size of the positions changes with new information. And after selling a stock, he will buy it back at a higher price if "I learn something new."
THIS ACTIVE, DISPASSIONATE APPROACH has benefited both the firm and its investors. Net of its 2% management fee and a hefty 25% performance fee, Perceptive has delivered an estimated annualized return of 30.2% from its 1999 inception through Dec 20. Few equity funds of any sort have done that well over such a long span. In a red-hot biotech market this year, Perceptive posted a net return of 47.1% through Dec. 20 (the firm's most recent estimate), easily topping the S&P 500's stellar 30.2% for that period.
Most of Perceptive's growth stems from long positions in companies whose products have overcome investor worries about their effectiveness. One example is MorphoSys (MOR.Germany), the fund's biggest position. MorphoSys is "unique among biotech companies" because it has more cash flowing in than out, thanks mainly to its R&D expertise, Edelman observes. The company had 401.9 million euros ($550 million) in cash as of Sept. 30, mostly from conducting research for other pharma makers.
Edelman is particularly enthused about MorphoSys' work on an antibody for multiple myeloma, a cancer that attacks blood-plasma cells. Although a lack of reported data on clinical trials gives pause to some investors, Edelman "took a little leap of faith" because Celgene CELG 1.7125620317213195% Celgene Corp. U.S.: Nasdaq USD104.53 1.76 1.7125620317213195% /Date(1475269200397-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 4268435 AFTER HOURS USD104.53 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 398241 P/E Ratio 43.73640167364017 Market Cap 81022768983.0139 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 1423100 More quote details and news » (CELG), a leader in this field, agreed to pay MorphoSys a larger royalty than usual to develop the antibody. "That was a vote of confidence," says Edelman. The stock's up 400% since he started buying it in July 2008. He's also bought Celgene since then.
The most volatile stock in Edelman's portfolio is one that Barron's has written favorably about several times: Sarepta Therapeutics SRPT 0.7051492292554936% Sarepta Therapeutics Inc. U.S.: Nasdaq USD61.41 0.43 0.7051492292554936% /Date(1475269200525-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 2400638 AFTER HOURS USD61.75 0.34 0.5536557563914671% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 107156 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap 3248036230.71426 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 4640.74 More quote details and news » (SRPT). The shares plummeted more than 75% in early November after the Food and Drug Administration announced that it wouldn't consider accelerated approval for Eteplirsen, a drug that Sarepta is developing to treat Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a crippling disease mainly hitting young boys. Edelman, however, maintains that Sarepta's clinical findings are sound, and that the drug eventually will win approval. The FDA's refusal was based on the recent failure of a competing product, but Edelman argues that the two shouldn't be lumped together. He estimates Eteplirsen's potential market at about $4 billion annually in the U.S. alone. "If the drug works and gets approved, Sarepta has more upside than any other mid-cap stock," he adds.
Edelman spreads his risk by owning 125 to 150 stocks at any one time, each at a different weight. "I view portfolio analysis a little like a poker game," he says. "You have to press the bet if you have a good hand."
One of his shorts is ThromboGenics thr.BT -1.394083645018701% Thrombogenics N.V. Belgium: Brussels EUR2.9 -0.041 -1.394083645018701% /Date(1475274905000-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 9569 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap 104673611.64535 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 84367 More quote details and news » (THR.Belgium), which has a new drug called Jetrea, for vitreomacular adhesion, a rare form of blindness. Based on the small number of patients that physicians have reported treating, Edelman believes Jetrea's market is worth less than a quarter of the $400 million to $500 million Wall Street estimates it is. Jetrea could also be a victim of its own success: It works with just one injection. "So the patients out there will all be gone," Edelman says. He shorted the stock in March 2012, when it was trading at about €25 a share. Last week, it was quoted at €17.
ADVANCED AS IT IS, biotechnology hasn't been able to cure its shares' volatility. So it's unlikely the group can repeat 2013's huge gains in 2014. "While it sounds cliched, I believe it'll be a stockpicker's market' in biotech stocks next year," Edelman says. He expects larger-cap, better-known stocks, such as Celgene and HIV drug-licensing specialist Gilead Sciences gild 1.6182892370922168% Gilead Sciences Inc. U.S.: Nasdaq USD79.12 1.26 1.6182892370922168% /Date(1475269200524-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 10484306 AFTER HOURS USD79.39 0.27 0.34125379170879677% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 547234 P/E Ratio 6.970925110132159 Market Cap 104411341339.393 Dividend Yield 2.3761375126390294% Rev. per Employee 4019750 More quote details and news » (GILD), to be better bets than smaller, riskier shares. These bigger companies work in partnerships with pharmaceutical developers, rather than risking everything on a Phase 1 clinical trial. Their shares are also much cheaper than their riskier counterparts'. That's where Edelman would place his wagers right now.

There's a new Diet Pepsi in several cities around the U.S., which now lists a new ingredient on the cans and bottles. It's called acesulfame potassium, also known as Acesulfame K or Ace K.
This quiet change is apparently not going to change the taste of the soda, but is meant to add shelf life by allowing the "fresh" taste and flavor to last longer. The project's goal is to give the old/current base sweetener (aspartame) a jump kick because of its sensitivity to heat and susceptibility to breaking down. Ace K has proven to be less sensitive to heat.
So what exactly is Ace K? Acesulfame potassium is another form of an artificial sweetener that is calorie free and about 200 times as sweet as everyday table sugar. Due to its slightly bitter aftertaste, it is often mixed with other artificial sweeteners (in this case it was mixed with Diet Pepsi's aspartame). It's often found in many baked goods, processed foods and other soft drinks similar to Diet Pepsi.
"Aspartame breaks down during storage especially when the temperature is high (that's why you can't bake with it) and so this is a good move on Pepsi's part," said our resident dietitian, Mary Hartley, RD. "The move has nothing to do with the safety of aspartame, which has been found to be safe in scientific studies time and again."
That might be one positive factor, but is it enough to make it OK to be consuming the other harmful ingredients listed on the back? (more…)
UPDATE 1/29/13: After more than 200,000 signatures on a Change.org petition, PepsiCo has announced it will remove the flame retardant it currently uses in Gatorade. However, the company doesn't not plan to issue a recall on products in market that still contain the BVO, or Brominated Vegetable Oil.
About a month ago, a 15-year-old teenager named Sarah Kavanagh was looking forward to the Gatorade she had stored in her fridge for after her long afternoon of playing outdoors in the humid heat in Hattiesburg, Miss.
With Sarah being the dedicated vegetarian that she is, out of habit she checked the ingredient list on the drink before popping open the top. While making sure none of the ingredients were made from any type of animal, she noticed it contained brominated vegetable oil. Though it had the word vegetable in it, Sarah still felt like investigating further.
"I knew it probably wasn't from an animal because it had the word vegetable in the name, but I still wanted to know what it was so I Googled it," said Sarah. "A page popped up with a long list of possible side effects, including neurological disorders and altered thyroid hormones. I didn't expect that."
Needless to say, Sarah threw the drink away without a sip or hesitation. She then began an online petition on Change.org where she now has nearly 200,000 signatures. Sarah's hoping that she can get enough supporters that will persuade Gatorade's maker, PepsiCo, to make some changes to the recipe. (more…)
Pepsi-Cola isn't exactly in a healthy industry. Over the past years, big soda companies like Pepsi and Coke have been scrutinized for contributing to the obesity epidemic. In light of this, Pepsi just announced a new fiber-infused flavor, "Pepsi Special," that claims to reduce fat levels in the body. The product is only sold in Japan.
Pepsi Special contains dextrin, "a type of 'functional fiber,'" explained our resident dietitian, Mary Hartley, RD. "This is a fiber isolated or extracted from a plant (or, in some cases, manufactured) added to a food. Dextrins are true soluble fibers that can help improve digestion. They act as 'prebiotics,' undigested fibers that feed the friendly bacteria in the colon."
Benefits of dextrin include stabilizing blood glucose, regulating insulin, reducing risk of heart disease, and reducing cholesterol and fat cell levels in the body. Dextrin can be found in glue products as well, but it's not safe to consume in that form. There are a number of foods and medications that contain dextrin and have for about half a century, notes Hartley. "Most people eat some dextrins every day without noticing a change in weight," she said.
Will drinking the new Pepsi product make you skinnier? Probably not.
"Pepsi Special is a gimmick. It is just another product to increase market share," calls out Hartley. (more…)
As if the soda industry hasn't gained enough negative attention from the New York City soda ban, another wave of criticism has caused a serious change that will roll out as early as next year.
What will likely become a new national standard will begin taking place in 2013: Vending machines in Chicago and San Antonio municipal buildings will begin showing calorie counts on the front of all machines.
As reported by Associated Press, Coke, Pepsi and Dr Pepper are introducing new vending machines that will show the calorie count of each beverage before you select it. Mock-ups of the new machines by Coca-Cola show 20-ounce bottles of Coke and Sprite in vending machines with labels on the glass that state "240 calories." We can only assume that this is another initiative – much like the soda ban – to try and make people more conscious of their diet choices.
This move comes as part of the Supreme Court decision this summer to uphold President Obama's health care law, requiring vending machines and restaurant chains larger than 20 locations to clearly post their calorie information on the menu. McDonald's complied last month when it began posting nutrition information on its menus nationwide.
Mike Jacobson, the executive director for the Center for Science in the Public Interest, told AP that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has proposed an amendment that would require nutrition information to be posted on the side of vending machines via a poster. His organization advocates for food safety and nutrition and is pleased about these upcoming changes, believing they will help people make more conscious decisions regarding their health.
"This would be an important step forward. Currently, people don't think about calories when they go up to a vending machine," he said. "Having the calories right on the button will hep them make choices." (more…)
Carbonated sodas are finding themselves unwelcome in more and more places than ever before. Most recently, the Faulkton, South Dakota school district has banned soda to be sold inside or brought in the school. This is one of the first complete instituted bans on soda in the country. As this trend continues, soda companies are attempting to make up for the loss of sales.
Many schools have been removing soda and sugary drinks from vending machines in the last few years. It is assumed more total bans will take place as soda is being named public enemy number one by many health organizations. The link between the obesity crisis and sugary drinks seems fair as Americans drink nearly two sodas a day on average. Those two sodas add up to nearly 25 pounds of sugar a year. That sugar equals a plethora of issues for the human body, including weight gain. Margo Wootan, director of nutrition policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest describes how prolific the consumption of soda is in America.
"We get more calories from sodas and sugary drinks than any other individual food — cake, cookies, pizza, anything." (more…)
