Instability, unsustainability, inadequate financial resources, lack of professional and technical capacity of human resources, complicated and corrupted registration processes, lack of formal institutional structures, hindrances by the local authorities, a lack of organizational accountability and transparency, and high demands from the community are all major difficulties faced by civil society in Myanmar.
This was not always the case. Myanmar enjoyed democratic rule from independence in 1948 until 1958 and again from 1960 to 1962. During this post-independence period, a rich civil society developed in the cities and towns. The rural areas were not as fortunate however, because of the civil war that raged in the countryside in the late 1940s and early 1950s, which hindered the development of civil society in those parts of the country. Then, in 1963 and 1964, private schools, missionary hospitals, and cinemas were nationalized and library associations were shut down by the Revolutionary Council. After that, public debates ended, and since then the regime has not allowed civil society to function freely, particularly during the period between 1988 and 1990 which was the stormiest time of the country's political situation.
In May 2008 however, Cyclone Nargis struck, which was one of the most serious disasters in Myanmar's history, causing many losses and causalities. As a result, several Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) and Community Based Organizations (CBOs) emerged to assist with relief and rehabilitation works. The "NGOs in Myanmar" website (http://www.ngoinmyanmar.org), now counts 128 local NGOs, 99 international NGOs, 5 Red Cross movements, 13 UN agencies, 5 donor agencies, 105 NGO head offices and 9 NGO field offices. Although the exact number is not known, it is true that very few of these local organizations have official registration and hold authorized status. These organizations are trying to help the Myanmar people build a better life, but they constantly face hurdles in their work. Thus, many in the country continue to suffer needlessly.
The Predicaments
Anyone interested in researching the difficulties faced by Myanmar civil society will find that many of the problems are interconnected and operate in a vicious cycle. The country has been run by a military dictatorship, which severely oppresses the people and spends the majority of the country's budget on the strengthening the army. Almost all of the country's revenue goes to majors, senior officers and elites and their families who favor the regime. Thus, a high percentage of ordinary citizens live in poverty and cannot acquire basic needs.
As a result, NGOs, CBOs, CSOs, faith based groups, self-help groups, youth groups, student alumni and women groups have become important avenues for filling the needs of the country. Civil society however is often viewed as a threat to the junta whose main concern is to firmly hold onto power as long as possible. Because the government sees a strong civil society as threatening the permanence of their reign, organizations wanting to implement projects or programs are often told they must have an authorized MoU (Memorandum of Understanding) to operate. In order to get a MoU however, the organization must legally register, but the registration process for NGO's has become a bit of a joke. "One does not necessarily need to know the policies or procedures when registering an organization; they just need to be familiar with a high-profile man such as a general or minister – because THEY are the policy"! Myanmar used to have legislative procedures for setting up an NGO. However, the policy makers themselves made the laws inconsistent and not easily understood. Now, many people do not even know about the existence of those laws.
Highly restricted access to communication technology, the regime's main goal of isolating and demoralizing activists, the domination of regime-sponsored organizations, educational and cultural limitations, and restrictions in some areas populated by ethnic minorities, are also the limitations faced by CSOs in the country.
Realities from the Ground
Moe Pauk, an organizer from a local CSO where I used to volunteer, worked for a social welfare program initiated by an entrepreneur of a leading IT and media firm. Moe Pauk believes strongly that the development of the country is connected to the well being of children. This fuels her desire to work for poor children at a grassroots level. In July 2009, she, along with her boss, some of the socially-mindful employees from the company, and some interested outsiders who saw the organization's Facebook initiative, sat together and tried to form a group to support vulnerable orphans in the society. Since that time, she has been a dedicated organizer for MOSN (Myanmar Orphans Support Network), which fulfills an important need in the community.
As an organizer, Moe Pauk really appreciates all of the volunteers who generously contribute their spare time with the group. However, it is not always easy to run an organization using mainly volunteers. Some people say they will join but then do not come to the programs. Others are very late to crucial meetings. She would like to be able to provide some financial incentives to the volunteers but there is not enough funding, which makes her wonder how to make the organization more sustainable. To address the problem she has considered drafting a proposal to a donor agency to request more funding, however, she has been told she cannot apply because she has not registered for official status and thus does not have a MoU – which is a requirement when applying for funding.
Another friend, with whom I have collaborated with, Kyi Par, is a founder of an organization named AFP (Actions for Public). Her organization focuses on empowering PLHA (People living with HIV and AIDS) women by providing them with sewing training, and then linking them with members of the garment industry to sell their products. There is also a microfinance project that provides needed support to women and their families for the betterment of their health and general welfare.
Kyi is going to the United States of America very soon to pursue her master's degree in Public Administration as a Fulbright scholar. Although she will no longer run AFP, the women she has trained will continue working and using the skills she has provided them. AFP was able to accomplish this even though they never were able to officially register. They faced fewer obstacles from the authorities because they operated on the outskirts of the city and kept a low profile, so the government did not see them as such a threat. It was not always easy to run the program however, due to the usual problems of lack of funding, transparency and accountability that often plague humanitarian assistance projects. Kyi hopes that the progress the organization, which she overcame many obstacles to set up, made will be sustained and the women will continue to improve their skills after she leaves, without too much interference from the government.
I too have experienced the joys and frustrations of working with NGOs and trying to make positive change for people. First I volunteered with a small organization based in British Council Burma's library for two years. There, I started as an apprentice with few skills and little knowledge about development, but later became a leading organizer. Currently, I work part-time for an international NGO, and for two years have been running a small CSO named MMM (Metta Moe Myanmar) with my friend with the hope that it will become a youth-led change agent in the country. Our organization does not have MoU and we are facing many issues like other groups. Moreover, our MMM has transportation barriers in running a community-school in a very remote area.
Women like Moe Pauk and Kyi Pyar, aged 25 and 28 respectively, and myself, are young energetic activists with many hopes for the future, the country, and ourselves. We, along with organizations like MOSN and AFP, plus volunteers, interns, beneficiaries, stakeholders, and all of the brothers and sisters who are members of civil society, are devoted to bringing about positive change, but are faced with many challenges on a daily basis. Whenever I ask people why they do not register their organization, they reply that it is very difficult. When I ask why it is difficult, most do not know exactly what the problem is. Even those who keep a low profile and deliver their services very carefully and cleverly can still face obstacles. As a result, many organizations remain unstable, their services remain inconsistent and the situations of the people they are trying to help will remain unchanged, unless the government starts to appreciate the contribution these organizations can make to society.
The Reasons a Vibrant Civil Society is Important
A former economic professor, author, and motivator for youth who worked as a senior UN officer in Italy, and now adviser at the UN in Myanmar, said that Northern Italy is more developed than its Southern part because the North has a vibrant civil society which contributes much to the well-being of the locality. Similarly, in a developing country like Myanmar, the role of civil society is crucial for progress and can ultimately lead to a more democratic nation. As a result of efforts of NGOs and others in civil society, more children have access to things like education. Also, through civil society organizations, many youth get exposure to UN, EU and international leading organizations, and gain knowledge on globalization and the importance of quality education, all of which can be very useful later in their lives and in the development of the country. Responsible NGOs can introduce us to ideas like transparency, accountability and participatory methods, which are the basic principles of good governance. Together, these collective ideas can slowly help us improve, unite our voices, and bring about democracy piece by piece.
A Golden Opportunity
Khaing Min from the Thingungyun township committee of NDF (National Democratic Force) which is one of the leading opposition political parties to the military government and won a proportion of seats in the very recent November 7 election, the first for the country after 1990 said that he personally hopes that civil society and authentic democratic allies in the coming Parliament can make a slice of positive change despite the fact that the USDP (Union Solidarity and Development Party), the regime's party, won over 75 percent in the election. He believes during this transition democratic candidates should support civil society organizations. A number of newly-elected local representatives will be focused on establishing legal frameworks, fundamental infrastructure and community development in their constituencies. He would like to urge CBOs and CSOs to make their voices heard in parliament. Civil Society must shout loudly about the limitations they have been facing and propose and mandate effective policies for civil society organizations.
Looking on the bright side, there are many possible ways in which the international community can support marginalized Myanmar people and many opportunities for international donors to widely-engage and strengthen civil society and democracy movements from the bottom up. Although communication channels such as internet and mobile technologies are still sensitively controlled, we all must connect, communicate, network, partner and share the resources and information we have. We must remember to practice transparency, accountability and participatory decision making whenever working with other organizations and inside our own groups. Networks like "Myanmar NGO Network" and "Myanmar Youth Forum" can also have a strong voice as a group. Rural youth can present their on-the-ground experiences, and urban youths can share their resources, which are only available in cities like Yangon. Exchange programs between rural and urban people should be promoted, as well as strategic meetings among organizations. The media also has an important role to play in assisting civil society. Building self-esteem, cooperation, and a sense of belonging in a democratization process, can steadily transform the political myth of ordinary people in Myanmar, and gradually lead to a way for changing into the liberal democratic country.
The import thing is to "Think out of the box." Myanmar is in transition and this can be a golden opportunity for civil society. Grab it!

Hi sister! I've watched news on the crisis on Myanmar and it's really bad. And you are right, transition is always an opportunity. The good thing about being in the global limelight is that it attracts attention and gathers concern. So, you see ... you now have the interest of and assistance from the international community. You can take advantage of the situation (transition) by exploring the avenues for change ... for a better Myanmar. And, of course, you have all your countrymen, the Burmese people, clamoring and working for such change!
Always, Emie Zozobrado
Dear sister,
Yes! Our country's affairs are very controversial. We are not like Afghan or Zimbabwe. What I mean is that their cases are very visible but for us, the regime is always trying to make propaganda inside and outside the country. Anyway, I am very glad that you can see the real situation. Honestly, I do not remember the exact data, but I have learned that Myanmar is the country which receivers the smallest amount of Development Assistance Fund in the region from international communities. What I mean is I am longing for that assistance but the government is making a lair that we are rich enough and we do not need from others. So is it not a good condition for people who are in need? As I mentioned in the post, although their supported party won majority seats, now in the parliament, as there are some democratic groups, although they are a few number, they can ask and do for their people piece by piece. And I hope the ordinary citizen can see positively now rather than feeling sad.
Best regards, sister Insha Allah

This is a brilliant piece of work Insha, you have worked really hard to inform us about the issues happening in your country Myanmar. I commend you for drawing us to the current challenges and for introducing women and men who are on the fore front of bringing change including yourself. I like your solution of "thinking out of the box" and this shows that one day, no matter how long it takes, things will get better and you will see the change. It's hard enough that we don't hear about the news and your bravery will ensure that we take notice as global citizens. I am looking forward to reading your Op - Ed and I hope to learn about your country once more. Keep up the good work Insha.

Dear sister Rudzanimbilu Muthambi,
I am very glad to read your encouraging comment.
Yes! Our country situation is really in a "Think out of the box"! As the regime is extremely oppressing the country in a clever way, we also have to try for our struggle cleverly. If we think we cannot do anything, we will never be freed for our dignity, citizen rights and freedom.
I am still preparing for my module 3 assignment and it is very exciting task.
Best regards, Insha
Shwe Wutt Hmon
Dear Insha,
I have read your piece carefully and with great interest. I am very impressed by your thorough knowledge of the complexities of current civil society in Myanmar and your concrete engagement in improving life in your country through your work in a variety of organizations. It is heartening to know that you have connected with young people like yourself because as a group you will be a 'tour de force' in bringing positive change to the lives of your countrymen and women.

Dear Lehner,
Thanks for taking time and reading my piece. One of my passion is to spread the voices of unheard. It's my pleasure to work for my country and my people and I am very proud of myself deciding to become a social worker. At I am at my young age, I have to learn a lot more and try to work for my community more. Yes! We are organizing a Myanmar Youth Forum which is composed of youths from organizations and youth-led organizations from Myanmar Civil Society to make a stronger voice.
Best regards, Insha
Shwe Wutt Hmon
This is such a beautifully constructed piece! I understand the strong role civil societies in authoritative gov, my country also face some challenges regarding civil society; from 2009 onwards we did see an encouraging role of the civil society.
In political transition period, it' the civil society that emerges as the winner !
I really like this line "Rural youth can present their on-the-ground experiences, and urban youths can share their resources, which are only available in cities like Yangoon"
Thank you for this wonderful, balanced insight into your country ;- )
Dear sister Farona,
Thanks for your encouraging message to my post.
The role of civil society is very important in developing countries and in many of the undemocratic countries, they are under challenges. I want to highlight it from my country example.
Yes! Sharing and collaborating are very effective strategies in our ways to change.
Best, Insha Allah
Shwe Wutt Hmon
Hello Insha, Just to say I really enjoyed reading your piece, which was very informative and offers a great deal of insight into life in Myanmar. You have a very good, clear writing style. Julie

Video retailer agrees to $840 million buyout
PORTLAND, Ore. - Video retailer Hollywood Entertainment Corp. said Monday it has agreed to a buyout offer of about $840 million from a group led by a Los Angeles-based investment firm.
The deal for the No. 2 video-rental chain in the nation also would include the assumption of about $300 million in debt.
The buyout comes as video retailers like Hollywood Entertainment and its bigger rival Blockbuster Inc. have come under pressure from video sales by discounters such as Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and Target Corp.
The shift from videotape to DVD technology also has changed the industry, boosting sales over rentals, analysts said.
Hollywood Entertainment, based in suburban Wilsonville, currently owns and operates more than 1,920 Hollywood Video superstores and 600 Game Crazy specialty stores.
Under terms of the deal, Hollywood's shareholders would receive $14 per share in cash - representing a 31 percent premium over the company's closing price of $10.70 on Friday.
Amarillo has one Hollywood Video location at 5710 S.W. 45th Ave.
Hastings' earnings rise
Fiscal year 2003 proved to be more profitable for Hastings Entertainment than the previous year.
The Amarillo-based company reported it earned net income of $7.8 million, or 68 cents per diluted share for the fiscal year. That compares to $1.9 million or 16 cents per diluted share for fiscal year 2002.
The company also reported last quarter results for 2003. Hastings earned 12.4 million or $1.07 per diluted share in the last three months of the fiscal year.
That compares to $9.6 million for the last quarter of 2002.
"We made great progress in reducing costs and enhancing our management while improving inventory controls and functionality, which contributed to a substantial improvement in profitability and reduction in our debt for the year," said Chairman John Marmaduke.

Last year, eight cases of the mosquito-borne disease were confirmed in the state.
All but one of the cases in Arizona were in Maricopa County. So far, no cases have been confirmed in Pima County.
Officials with the Pima County Health Department say the county has an active program to treat standing water to kill mosquitos. They also say despite all the rain, the county has not had the need to fog for mosquitos this year.
The CDC report highlights a marked increase in cases of the disease across the country, with Texas having the largest number.

Hepatitis - Prevention And Control
research infected
Research into the virus was slow because of the limited amounts which could be isolated and collected from both naturally infected humans and experimentally infected primates. Recently, successful genetic cloning (artificial duplication of genes) is greatly enhancing research efforts. Surprisingly, research found that antibodies exist in between 1%-5% of people who have never been infected with hepatitis. Until an effective vaccine is developed, sanitation remains the most important factor in preventing the spread of HEV.

As the violence in the Middle East escalates, and Arab anger grows over American support of Israel (especially among the masses), is another oil embargo possible? Oil may be the Arab world's daily bread, but it's also its only weapon — if, say, Arafat is killed or Israel goes too far in its incursions into Palestinian territories, popular sentiment in the already-shaky local regimes could force Arab governments to put up a show of defiance to calm their constituencies.

Testimony Presented by Nirav R. Shah, M.D., M.P.H. - Joint Legislative Budget Hearing Testimony - January 30, 2013
State Fiscal Year 2013-14 Executive Budget
January 30, 2013
Nirav R. Shah, M.D., M.P.H. Commissioner
New York State Department of Health
Good morning Senator DeFrancisco, Assemblyman Farrell, other distinguished members of the Senate Finance and Assembly Ways and Means Committees, Senator Hannon and Assemblyman Gottfried. I am Dr. Nirav Shah, Commissioner of Health, and I am pleased to have this opportunity to appear before you today to discuss the Executive Budget as it relates to the mission of the Department of Health.
The Executive Budget continues the historic Medicaid reforms initiated in 2011 as part of Governor Cuomo's Medicaid Redesign Team initiative. These reforms are achieving better health care outcomes and containing the growth of our state's Medicaid costs. The Executive Budget also reflects the Governor's commitment to cap the cost of Medicaid to local governments, saving them an additional $111 million in fiscal year 2014.
Governor Cuomo's multi-year Medicaid reform plan has also transformed the program in ways that benefit Medicaid members and providers. One million additional Medicaid members are now accessing high-quality primary care through Patient Centered Medical Homes; almost 16,000 high-need people are now getting individualized care management through New York's Health Homes; enrollment in Medicaid Managed Care continues to grow; and enrollment in the State's highly successful Managed Long Term Care Program has nearly doubled.
New York is leading the nation in connecting high-need Medicaid patients with supportive housing. In 2012, Governor Cuomo announced the state's $75 million investment in supportive housing to rein in costly Medicaid expenditures while more effectively managing the chronic conditions of more than 4,000 high-need New Yorkers. Just last week, Governor Cuomo announced that ground has been broken on the first supportive housing development in the Bronx.
The budget supports the continued move to care management for all Medicaid recipients, which is expected to be completed in 2016.
A cost-neutral package of new MRT initiatives is proposed to make critical investments in health care delivery, including care coordination for mentally ill recipients discharged from State psychiatric centers and those receiving court ordered services through Assisted Outpatient Treatment; assisting hospitals with the transition to a new indigent care methodology, increased payments to essential community providers, integrating service delivery in common locations for physical health, mental health and substance abuse; and expanding tobacco cessation efforts. These investments are balanced by savings resulting from improvements in benefits design, more appropriate treatment outcomes, greater controls on pharmaceuticals, and compliance with Federal law that requires spousal support.
The Executive Budget also builds upon reforms to the Early Intervention program accomplished last year by integrating covered EI services into health insurance networks and streamlining the eligibility process to ensure timely access to Early Intervention program services for children and their families while reducing program costs.
The budget supports reforms to the General Public Health Work program,which provides state aid reimbursement to the 58 local health departments in New York that are at the front lines of delivering essential public health services to promote and protect the health of New Yorkers. The budget will provide administrative relief to county public health agencies; modernize program components which have not changed since the late 1980s; and improve fiscal predictability in spending.
In his budget message, the Governor said it is critical for State funding to be consolidatedand targeted to better meet the needs of New Yorkers. Consistent with that message, the Department's 2013-14 Budget provides a structure for making public health investment more effective by funding evidence-based programs and best practices. The budget also supports consolidation of state laboratory functions and better coordination of response to public health concerns. Currently, the State has public health and environmental labs that are operated by five agencies. Most space is in fair to poor condition and in need of replacement. For the Department of Health these conditions pose health and safety risks to employees and, potentially, to the general public. By improving lab facilities and supporting greater coordination among State labs, New York will be poised to leverage our lab activities with private and university partners to advance economic development.
Lastly, the health care community - like so many sectors of the State - continues to recover from and assess the near- and long-term challenges related to Hurricane Sandy. With tremendous effort and coordination by all partners, we were able to safely evacuate more than 7,000 hospital patients and health facility residents in the face of the unprecedented storm and its aftermath. With respect to damaged facilities, DOH has been working in coordination with the State Emergency Management Office (or NYS Department of Homeland Security) to assure providers have the necessary information to apply for repair and recovery funding through approved federal resources.
The Executive Budget for Health reflects Governor Cuomo's commitment to reforming State government to better serve taxpayers, while making strategic and targeted investments in our health care system.
The Department of Health will continue to work in partnership with the Legislature, health care stakeholders, and all New Yorkers to create the finest public health and health care systems in the nation.
Thank you. I am happy to answer your questions.

Just as Israelis were starting to think Abbas was the man to deal with, he alienated them at the UN.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu left Israel on Sunday en route to the UN in New York, saying he will refute 'lies directed at us' with regard to the war in Gaza
Abbas's comments, which also included harsh criticism of Hamas' conduct in the war, appeared to be part of a brewing power struggle over who will control Gaza
Israel's 50-day war with Palestinian militants in Gaza was a 'game changer' that persuaded the Palestinian president, Mahmoud Abbas, to join the International Criminal Court
'It's not important who wins or loses. What's important is to end this bloodshed,' Abbas said in his first time openly criticizing Hamas for its actions
As recent events have shown, the Palestinian leader's real objective has been to harness his cause to the wave of popular uprisings that has been sweeping the Arab world

Department of Ed Looking to Update Sexual Assault Reporting, Disciplinary Hearings on Campuses
Department of Ed Looking to Update Sexual Assault Reporting, Disciplinary Hearings on Campuses
The U.S. Department of Education endorsed a proposal on April 1 that would require colleges to expand their reporting of campus crimes, publish more information on disciplinary hearings processes, and host sexual assault prevention programs. The proposal, which was drafted by a 15-person negotiated rulemaking committee, would implement the changes made by Congress last year as part of the reauthorization of the Violence against Women Act (VAWA).
The proposal would add several crimes, including domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking to the list of incidents colleges are required to report and include in their annual crime statistics. Crimes against individuals because of their national origin or gender identity would be added as two new categories of hate crimes and would also have to be reported.
Colleges would be required to create awareness campaigns to prevent dating and/or domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking and would have to implement certain processes when conducting disciplinary proceedings regarding the same. The draft would allow for discretion among colleges to determine an appropriate time frame for such proceedings, but Congress mandated that these proceedings would be "prompt, fair, and impartial." Institutions would have to have "good cause" to delay the proceedings.
Because the committee reached a consensus on the draft, the Department is now required to push the proposal through the regulatory rulemaking process. The proposal is expected to be released in the coming months. A final rule would have to be published by November 1 if the department wants the regulation in place by the 2015-2016 school year.
Thank you for sharing this information, it continues to amaze me that it is 2014 and we are still asking campuses to report on sexual assault, stalking and domestic violence on campuses. Also that there be prevention programs made avaliable to students. In 2004 at my job we received a VAWA grant to engage in some creative work concerning DV survivors and their pets. This was a city wide project and involved students from local colleges and universities. I was amazed at the lack of education the students actually received on their campus.
I am wary of timelines that are not specific, "timely fashion, fair and impartial" have not proven successful to date, although there is clearly much more awareness we continue to have a great deal to do to expand the outreach on campuses across the country to deal with violence against women.
I really enjoyed reading your response to this topic. I agree and argue with regards to this topic. It is great that your job engaged in a project like they did. The most interesting part about this is campuses are still being asked to report on inappropriate behavior or misconduct on their campus. I myself wonder if victims should report any inappropriate behavior directly to the police instead of relying on the campus. What are your thoughts?
Deborah, Thanks for taking time to read the blog. I think that sadly women are caught in the poverbial Catch 22. Report, don't report, report to campus police, report to city police. The problem is no matter where women report they are still today not listened to, not respected, their motivations are questioned. Just today I read where a young woman reported her rape at Tuft's University and ended up leaving the school because she could not get the help she needed. The impact of sexual assault is oftentimes life long and does not "just go away" like people around survivors wish it would. In part they want it to go away because it impacts their relationship with the survivors. Prosecutions are sorely lacking and victims often see their offenders over and over again and are "helpless" to do anything.
Sadly I do not have much faith in police departments in general, but continuie to hold out hope that changes will continue that will ultimately provide reasonable and responsive services to survivors.

Bruel & Kjaer UK Ltd. - PRODUCT NEWS
HUMAN VIBRATION ANALYSER PROVIDES ALL DATA REQUIRED BY THE DIRECTIVE IN A HANDHELD FORMAT. Bruel & Kjaer introduces a portable system for acquisition, measurement and evaluation of human vibration. The Type 4447 Human Vibration Analyser is designed for monitoring exposure of human operators to the harmful influences of vibration of hand-tools, machinery, heavy vehicles, etcetera. It is a compact, battery-driven, standalone instrument ideal for field work and with a versatile graphics display for control of the instrument and analysis of results. Four buttons control all functions, and all necessary data is displayed for instant assessment of exposure to vibration. A USB interface provides for archiving and post processing of the data for calculation of vibration doses. Among the parameters which the Type 4447 simultaneously measures and calculates are triaxial running RMS vibration and peak vibration, weighted or unweighted, crest factor for each axis, frequency-weighted hand-arm vibration and whole-body vibration, the combined vibration on all three axes as a vector sum, MTVV (maximum transient vibration value), MSDV (motion sickness dose value), and VDV (vibration dose value). The Type 4447 is delivered together with a software package for calculation of vibration exposure to check the action values and limit values as stated in European Directive 2002/44/EC. Bruel & Kjaer sought input from many interested parties in the design and development of the instrument. They include consultants working with measurements of, and risk evaluations caused by, exposure to occupational vibration; occupational health departments; manufacturers of building machinery, freight vehicles and other machinery; manufacturers of anti-vibration pads, seats and personal protection equipment; manufacturers of all kinds of hand-tools; and educational and medical institutions. About Brüel & Kjær With more than 60 years experience, Brüel & Kjær is a world leading manufacturer and supplier of sound and vibration solutions for use in a wide range of applications including environmental noise measurements, building acoustics, vibration measurements and quality control for use in the automotive, aerospace and consumer industries, as well as by local authorities. __________________________________________________ For more information, please contact :- Bruel & Kjaer UK Ltd.

Here goes a few great snacks, that can help maintain your hair from the inside out!!
Sunflower seeds
Sunflower seeds are high in protein, biotin, potassium, zinc, iron, B vitamins, vitamin E, magnesium and calcium. Hair is made of proteins so this tasty snack will strengthen your hair... even the BBQ'd flavor ones can benefit your hair. Don't feel to guilty if you would rather eat those, instead of the plain ones LOL.
Figs contain iron, magnesium, vitamins A, B & C, folic acid, zinc, sodium and potassium. They are 80% higher in potassium than bananas. Iv'e never had a fig in my life, the closest Iv'e come to a fig is bath & body works Brown Sugar & fig lotion lol. after researching their benefits i may have to eat one...I wonder how they taste?
Bannans contain an amino acid named tryptophan, it's an essential amino acid. This means the body needs it but can't make it...so we have to eat it. bananas also contain natural oils that soften the hair when applied directly. Potassium adds softening properties to the hair shaft.
Anemia is deficiency of red blood cells that help to carry oxygen in the blood to various cells and tissues of the body. Deficiency of iron causes reduced production of hemoglobin and other important nutrients required for producing red blood cells. Thus, bananas being high in iron are some of the best foods to treat anemia.
Eating banana benefits your brain by increasing your thinking ability and brainpower.
Bananas are best natural remedy for curing hangovers. Simply prepare a mixture of banana, yogurt and honey and have it to soothe the stomach after a hangover.
Bananas help to neutralize the acidic level in the stomach and hence, are best home remedies for treating ulcers and heartburn. They coat the intestine with a protective coating and act as natural antacid.
Researches have proved that eating banana benefits a person to quit smoking. Potassium, magnesium, vitamin B6 and B12, present in banana are useful substances that help in recovering from the withdrawal symptoms of nicotine.
Bananas are high in B-complex vitamins, which help to improve the functioning of the nervous system.
Eating banana reduces the risk of stroke by 40%.
Eating cooked flowers of bananas helps to alleviate the menstrual cramps and also controls excessive bleeding.
Rubbing the banana peels over the skin, helps in reducing the itching and swelling caused due to mosquito bites.
Tryptophan is an amino acid present in banana and helps to treat psychological problems like stress and depression.
The high amount of electrolytes present in banana helps in preventing dehydration.
In United States, strawberries are rated as one of the best foods for skin care and weight loss. Studies have shown that regular intake of strawberries can improve your skin and hair conditions. strawberries are rich in a number of vitamins, copper and manganese as well as Omega 3 essential fatty acids. this is great news, if your a vegan who doesn't eat salmon.
Nutrients found in strawberries include vitamin A, C, E and B6, fiber, potassium, folate and various antioxidants and flavonoids. all of these things help the circulation of blood to the scalp. Your immune system needs these fighters to protect against diseases related to heart and cancers.
Strawberries surpass super fruits like apples, oranges and bananas, in terms of providing the most nutrients.For example, comparing the vitamin C level in 100g of strawberries and 100g of oranges, strawberries exceed oranges by 10mg. Best of all, they are low in calories and absolutely fat-free!
Oranges contain vitamin C, a necessary nutrient for your body to keeps the fibers that create each hair together. Plus, beta carotene, found in other orange fruits and veggies is needed for cells to grow.
Rich in iron, raisins help keep oxygen flowing in the blood. The hair follicle needs all the nutrients it can get from circulation of healthy blood to the scalp. raisins help to promote hair growth, all the while preventing hair loss.
Cow's milk naturally contains vitamin A and B12. It also has biotin, a protein that will help strengthen your hair, which is made mostly of proteins. Low-fat dairy products like skim milk and yogurt are great sources of calcium, an important mineral for hair growth. They also contain whey and casein, two high-quality protein sources.
what are your favorite hair snacks?

This guidance updates and replaces NICE technology appraisal 58 (published in February 2003).
NICE has said that its recommendations about oseltamivir and zanamivir should not reduce efforts to give vaccination (also called the flu jab) to people for whom it is recommended in national guidelines.
The guidance does not cover widespread epidemics.
Oseltamivir and zanamivir are recommended as possible treatments for people with flu if all of the following apply:
- the person is in an 'at-risk' group
- the person has a 'flu-like illness' (see page 3) and can start treatment within 48 hours (36 hours for zanamivir treatment in children) of the first sign of symptoms.
- the flu virus is known to be going around and it is likely that a flulike illness has been caused by the flu virus.
Healthcare professionals should discuss the choice of oseltamivir or zanamivir with the person being offered the drugs. The decision should take into account which drug the person would prefer and any possible unwanted effects. If all else is equal, the cheapest drug should be used.
If there is an outbreak of 'flu-like illness' in a long-term residential or nursing home, oseltamivir and zanamivir may be offered to treat residents in 'at-risk' groups who have symptoms of flu. This could happen even if the flu virus is not around in the wider community outside the home, but the healthcare team should be sure that the illness is flu.
Amantadine is not recommended to treat people with flu.
Your responsibility
The recommendations in this guidance represent the view of NICE, arrived at after careful consideration of the evidence available.

Idaho Lags Behind Nation In Percent Of People With A College Degree
By Emilie Ritter Saunders • May 15, 2012
There are fewer people with college degrees in Idaho than in many of its neighboring states and the nation.
U.S. Census Bureau data from 2010 shows 24.4 percent of Idahoans aged 25 or older have a bachelor's degree or higher. The national average in 2010 was 28.2 percent.
A report from Georgetown University's Center on Education and the Workforce predicts 61 percent of the jobs available in Idaho by 2018 will require an education beyond high school. Click here to continue reading...

A recent example from the NCS conservation laboratory.
A common sign of PVC residue development on silver and nickel coins is a green residue. Copper coins can develop a similar green residue with more advanced cases of PVC but earlier cases frequently will show spots of an unnatural shininess. This 1914 D Lincoln Cent displayed the spotty, unnaturally shiny, almost oily spots of a copper coin with early PVC residue development.
This particular Cent presented conservators with some extra challenges. Circulated coins as well as copper coins both present separate challenges with their unique surfaces. Conservators at NCS were able to remove the PVC residue as well as small areas of other residues leaving this natural looking key date coin ready for numerical grading with NGC.

No 'District 9' Aliens Allowed In Today's eBay Prop-Watch
Ah "District 9." You're finally here. Now everyone gets to share in the joy, to see how exquisitely well-crafted you are. Director Neill Blomkamp rises to the challenge in his first feature directing gig, spinning out a tight, smartly laid out story which sails along, bolstered by an impressive first time leading man performance from Sharlto Copley. Enough poetic waxing about "District 9" though... on to the subject of this post.
Today's eBay Prop-Watch pick isn't a prop. Maybe it's a replica-- I think it popped up at some point in the movie. This should be a familiar image to anyone who's been following the summer sci-fi adventure though. "District 9" has been subject of a fairly extensive viral marketing campaign, and lots of cool ephemera has come out of it. And that's where the inspiration for today's pick lies.
What we have here is a replica of one of the "no humans allowed" signs featured in many of "District 9"'s posters, billboards and so on. It's not an official release by any stretch. It's the product of some enterprising fan's efforts, made out of heavy gauge aluminum and artificially weathered to look like it's been sitting outside in the elements for a long period of time. At a Buy It Now price of $60, this is a perfectly reasonable purchase for bigger fans of this "aliens walk among us" sci-fi flick.

The two-sport athlete is very rare nowadays, and it doesn't look like we're going to see the next Bo Jackson as both a hockey and basketball player.
Calgary Flames forward Jiri Hudler decided to go test out his basketball skills, attending a shootaround session with the Los Angeles Lakers. In full hockey pads, Hudler worked with Lakers coach Larry Lewis to help refine his game. You can see tweets from both teams below.

Theologian: Friederich Schleiermacher (1768-1834)
More about his theology: Schleiermacher develops a philosophy of religion whereby theology arises from the critical analysis of human piety or religious feelings. This means that there is no received content. Theology cannot be apologetic. Schleiermacher's methodology: Examining the feelings…
This made the nature of religion not thinking (scientific approach eliminated by Kant). Here he is attacking the historic Christian position that theology is a science. Also, the religious nature is not ethics (acting morally) either rather, it is feeling which works its way out in the absolute dependence. The absolute dependence is the a priori form of self-consciousness that then works its way out from feelings.The human being is central here, rather than God as self-revealed. There is no "Thus says the Lord." Also, theology is simply the outworking of prior religious feelings which are then subsequently analyzed. As a result, religion is only confessional. What I believe in the subject sense of the term, according to my religious feelings. There is no place for apologetics because I know my feelings and that's all that matters. This is reflected in the hymn "He Lives."
God is experienced as primarily immanent in me and this is a kind of subjective variation of natural theology. Schleiermacher abandoned all appeal to authority above the human because for him Christianity is based wholly upon religious experience or empirical piety. Therefore he rejected the historical Christian position that the truth of revelation rests on an authority higher than human reason. For FS experiential considerations, i.e. my feelings, can only give very tentative, highly flexible conclusions about God in relation to us. God's place [in his revelation] as central to theology is taken by human religious experience which becomes the decisive fact and final court of appeal to test the validity of any religious concept.

RUSH: Fast Eddie Rendell last night, Fox News Channel, Hannity & Colmes. Colmes said, "Governor Rendell, in the Washington Post you compared Obama to Adlai Stevenson. Was that a proper quote? Was that what you meant?"
RENDELL: Adlai Stevenson, in my judgment, was the greatest living Democrat in my lifetime. I think Barack Obama should also be a great president because he is smart, because he doesn't give easy answers, because he doesn't pander, because he thinks things through. He has a vision for this country. That doesn't necessarily translate on the campaign trail, but he's going to be a great president. If anybody out there loved Adlai Stevenson as much as I do, work your heart out for Barack Obama.
COLMES: (laughing)
RUSH: My gosh, for a guy that represents change, hope, and future, they're going back to find Democrat losers to compare Obama to! Adlai Stevenson? Illinois? Some of you people may not have ever heard the name. We're talking the fifties here! We're talking fifties, and he was this erudite elitist. He was a snob. They thought it was inevitable; he couldn't lose, and he got smoked. Here's Rendell, who we know is a Hillary supporter. Here is Rendell telling the largest cable news network audience last night, "Oh, yeah! The guy reminds me of Stevenson." (laughing) Obama's trying to compare himself to JFK, Martin Luther King. Fast Eddie comes out, "Nope, nope. Adlai Stevenson. Doesn't translate well on the campaign trail, but wait 'til you see him govern." How do we know? Stevenson never governed. This is just too much. You know, Fast Eddie, why didn't you go ahead and compare him to Governor Mondale and Dukakis while you were at it? (laughing) Throw Adlai Stevenson out? I love this. I just love this.

Stormwater Management and the Chesapeake Bay
As land development increases the amount of such impervious surfaces as roads and parking lots in an area, the stormwater runoff from that area increases as well. This increase in runoff decreases the amount of rainfall that seeps into the ground, and increases the flow of water into the nearby streams, causing local flooding and stream channel erosion. Water quality is affected by the accumulation of trash, oil and rubber from cars, fertilizers and pesticides applied to lawns, sediment from bare or poorly vegetated ground, and other pollutants entering streams, rivers and the Chesapeake Bay. Inflow of sediment can cloud water, blocking sunlight from submerged plants. Sediment also settles to the bottom of streams, clogging the gravel beds used by fish for laying their eggs. Nutrients, such as phosphorous and nitrogen, from fertilizers enter the water and promote unusually rapid algae growth. As the algae dies, its decomposition reduces or eliminates oxygen needed by fish, shellfish, and other aquatic life for survival.
These are all examples of nonpoint source pollution, one of the major contributors to the degradation of Maryland's waterways. Stormwater management controls nonpoint source pollution through the use of structural and nonstructural best management practices (BMPs) to intercept runoff from developed areas, filtering and treating stormwater runoff, and then discharging it at a controlled rate into the streams, rivers, and the Chesapeake Bay. The following BMPs are examples of stormwater management techniques that may be found in your community.
Shallow Marsh Basins are shallow pools that create growing conditions suitable for the growth of marsh vegetation. As the marsh plants grow, they act as filters removing nitrogen and phosphorous from the stormwater runoff. Shallow marshes also increase wildlife habitat in the urban environment, providing cover and food for an abundance of wildlife.
Filtering BMPs such as Infiltration Trenches, Sand Filters, and Bioretention Basins are devices used primarily for water quality management. In these BMPs, water is temporarily stored in a shallow trench or basin, and gradually seeps into the surrounding soil or filtering medium, removing pollutants and recharging groundwater. Trees, shrubs and grasses may be included in the design of filtering BMPs to enhance the water quality treatment and provide shade and wildlife habitat. As plants grow, they "drink" water from the surrounding soil, removing pollutants as they do so. Low growing plants act as a filter for runoff when their foliage is dense and close to the ground. Also, the roots of trees and plants enhance the seepage of water into the ground, recharging the groundwater.
Stormwater Management in Your Backyard
Successful stormwater management is achieved by controlling the quantity and quality of runoff from your property. The overriding condition, which governs stormwater runoff quantity, is the amount of hard, impervious surface located on your property (driveways, sidewalks, roofs, carports, etc.) Reduce these hard, impenetrable surface areas and you can reduce problems associated with excess stormwater runoff. Stormwater quality, however, is governed by the accumulation of pollutants on the entire surface area of your property, regardless of whether it is grassed or paved.
The greater your use of chemicals around the home such as fertilizers, pesticides, engine oils, deicing materials, etc., the more degraded the stormwater runoff from your property will be. Although your effect on stormwater quantity and quality may seem inconsequential, the cumulative impact of runoff from hundreds of thousands of yards across the State has been destructive to Maryland's streams, rivers, and the Chesapeake Bay. Below you will find numerous tips for reducing the quantity and improving the quality of runoff from your backyard.
These Activities Will Minimize Stormwater Runoff from Your Property
These Activities Will Reduce Fertilizer, Pesticide, and Sediment Runoff

6-3, Sophomore, Guard
Statistics: Super Team player of the year. Visited Texas Tech on his own and had a personal meeting with coach Bob Knight. MVP of District 3-4A. Averaged a 5A-4A Amarillo-area best 23.6 points per game. Season high was 38 points. Shot 45.5 percent (86-of-189) from the 3-point range. Averaged 4.5 assists and five rebounds.
Quote: "Austin just had a breakout season where he stepped up and did whatever he could do to help his team win," said Palo Duro coach Jeff Evans. "His competitive fire is a big part of why he is as good as he his. He doesn't like to lose. That's what you want in a player. He's not concerned with awards and numbers. He is concerned with winning and losing. I don't think people realize how well he rebounded, how many steals he had, and how many assists he made. That's to me what made him so valuable."
LeBron James Drives a $50,000 Hummer. What Do You Drive? "I get my driver's license in April. But I have a permit and drive with my dad sometimes. I have a two-door 1996 Tahoe. I've had it a couple of months and like it because it's big."

El Monte
The 115th annual California PTA Convention at the Los Angeles Convention Center was "the place to get the latest information on key issues, build the skills to strengthen your school and community, and have fun and connect with PTA leaders from across the state."
The El Monte Union High School District was represented by Board of Trustees Vice President Esthela Torres de Siegrist who had an opportunity to discuss the District's 83-year old Parent Education Program with California State Superintendent of Public Instruction Thomas A. "Tom" Torlakson.
"In this truly unique educational offering, an adult family member accompanies their child, aged one to four, in a well-designed classroom learning environment," Torres de Siegrist explained to Torlakson. "The teacher is a highly trained early childhood expert, who is assisted by a very experienced instructional assistant."
During two three-and-a-half-hour weekly sessions, children are taught their ABC's, numbers and basic shapes and develop social skills as they prepare for kindergarten.
"An added bonus is that the majority of the adults accompanying the children in the program are English Language Learners," said Torres de Siegrist.
Torres de Siegrist concluded by extending a personal invitation to Torlakson to visit the program first hand.
Convention attendees had an opportunity to select from more than 75 workshops, including nutrition, anti-bullying, disaster preparedness, increasing PTA membership, public speaking, child advocacy, special education and sessions designed just for students. In addition, more than 150 booths showcased a variety of topics such as child safety, education and fundraising.
Inspiring and motivating keynote speakers, along with activities and special events, kept the convention interesting and productive.

We formulate a conjecture for the local parts of Weyl group multiple Dirichlet series attached to root systems of type D. Our conjecture is analogous to the description of the local parts of type A series given by Brubaker, Bump, Friedberg, and Hoffstein [3] in terms of Gelfand–Tsetlin patterns. Our conjecture is given in terms of patterns for irreducible representations of even orthogonal Lie algebras developed by Littelmann [13].
