I read the article. It's all hype, just away to try to get the fans excited.
Much Ado about nothing.

King Felix!
I was somewhat skeptical as well, but apparently a wide variety of people notice the difference - M's front office, the media, and even Felix himself. Plus, no matter how much you want to hype something, you can't make up the fact that he's lost a good bit of weight.I read the article. It's all hype, just away to try to get the fans excited.
Much Ado about nothing.
losing wieght is all fine and dandy, but there is no way to for sure tell if that will translate into a better season.

He has to do at least a little better...try pitching with 30 lbs. added to you.Originally Posted by Disgruntaledmarinerfan
He was good LAST season...just really unlucky. His K/BB was outstanding, his HR rate improved as the year ended and his GB/FB remained very high...a lot of grounders found holes on him last year and his HRs all seemed to come at the worst moments. He'll be fine.
As for the weight loss thing...it's not just that he lost weight...it's also that he added some muscle mass. Lost 30 or 40 pounds of fat and added 15 pounds of muscle to fill out his frame. The dude is RIPPED now...very althletic. It's going to help him stay in games longer and not look winded by the fourth inning like he did for most of the first half of last year. Didn't you guys noticed how he was always pouring with sweat by the fourth or fifth inning last year?
Yeah for real, it can be summed up like this...a player CAN'T be better off FAT, it's that simple.
Bring Jr. back!
Mickey packed a few extra pounds during his playing days and it worked for him. Appropriately, Mickey opened a donut-shop in suburban Detroit after his retirement. Give me a maple bar !
Lolich would probably have been better had he not been obese...but it is true that you can be a good pticher and be big...(David Wells...heh)
Always keep an open mind and avoid superlatives about players like Felix. He has all the makings of a stud, but so did Beltre when he first came up and all he's had was one monster year and several others of not living up to potential. Beltre is better than his career performance, IMO, but not nearly as good as his 2004 performance. He's become an average third baseman, despite his supporters' hyperbole.
Felix had a rough season last year and should only get better, but don't expect a '2004 Beltre' year out of him. Not yet, anyway. Be patient, at least for another year.

Oh, darn. no .330 batting average, 100+ RBIs, and 48HRs out of Felix this year.Originally Posted by Dodgerfan1

I was at the game today, and I have to say, he LOOKED good out there.
Last season, he looked worn out as the game progressed, but today, he looked fine. And if it weren't for the fact that he was at around 110 pitches (108?) for the day, he could have pitched the 9th (but why risk it).
By the way, Putz was great out there as well!!!!!!
I'm just wondering, what everyone is expecting from Felix this year.
I want honest answers, not just high expectations because he had a great game today.
He should have over 200 innings, and he looks to have a good SO rate as well (but he did have a couple walks today - then again, when no one gets a hit, a couple walks here and there shouldn't hurt TOO much).
So maybe something like:
Or are we looking at something better? Or was this just a flash of brilliance which came out a couple times last year, but overall was inconsistent?
Will we see the 20 year old next time, or will we see King Felix?
The key difference between Felix now and Felix last year...his balance. Last year he was fat. Let's not beat around the bush here. He was fat, and got tired and around te 5th inning would usually start falling off toward first base and opening his shoulder. It caused a lot of high straight 97 mph fastballs that got launched and a lot of 4 pitch walks where all the pitches were above the letters. Do we all remember that?
This year, he's svelt, smooth, and balanced all the way into the eighth...he looked like he could pitch another eight. No sign of fatigue at all. No falling off to first base. No stretch of high pitches...just hitting the corners, using a riding fastball when he actually WANTED to...keeping the ball down to start ABs, and a blizzard of 1-2 counts, Ks and groundouts.
There's no reason...NO REASON...why Hernandez shouldn't be Pedro Martinez II. He is the best pitcher in the AL bar none. Right now. Today.
And I'm not just giddy after a good game...I'm basing this on my visual analysis of his form.
I believe strongly that he'll run a 2.22-2.75 ERA, 220 IP, 240 K, 50 BB, 18 HR kinda line.
That doesn't mean it will happen, but it's possible.
There are some people out there that no matter how hard they try, they will just never reach a certain level, they just don't have what it takes. Felix DOES have what it takes - but there have been enough players out there who had that talent and never did anything with it, or never reached their potential. If everything works out (and things are looking up at the moment wouldn't you say?), then yes, the sky is the limit.
I might also add that Santana gave up 4 runs in 6 innings, giving up 7 hits and 2 walks, while only striking out 6). Now I suspect that will be his worst game of the season....but.....take what you will from this.

Anything is possible with ending up a Top 15 pitcher, since he's still not old enough to have a beer... but better than Santana right now? That's too much for me... He's going to have to put up a 2.60 or so ERA, throw a lot of innings, strike out more batters,and walk less batters.
Some people like to think they're better than other by refusing to take a stand and make the call before the results are in. Saying "Felxi has to throw better than Santana for me to say he's better than Santana" does nothing for me. I'm calling it now. If I'm wrong, at least I did my best work and stood by my beliefs.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (134 votes).
In short: Wonderful views and some great descents. Could easily turn into mud bath if it had been wetIn full: Cracking scenery and smoothly organised. All good and not as tough as people said it would be, but then it has been very dry recently. I imagine that this run could be quagmire in the wet, especially with those fantastic 60° descentsDate of review: August 1, 2010
In short: What a great race. First time for me but will be back next year.In full: Outstanding organisation.... I anticipated getting lost, however the marking of the course and marshals was brilliant. The "wolf whistle" from the lady marshal made my day. Well done to Tom Frost and all of those involved in today's race. A credit to Liss Runners. Date of review: August 1, 2010
In short: Beasted well and truely - I want the marshall at 8m to be my personal trainer - wow what a whistle and support thank youDate of review: August 1, 2010
In short: Lung busting and thigh burning stuff!In full: This was my first trail race for a while and it was quite a refresher! I had set myself the challenge of making it round without walking but by mile 7 a long, steep hill just wiped me out. Organisation was great and the trail was really rugged with some dizzying descents and punishing climbs. A nice descent at the end to stretch out very weary legs and really helpful Marshalls throughout. I would definitely do it again.Date of review: August 1, 2010
In short: A Muddy RaceIn full: I was returning home from Saudi and thought why not give it a go as it happened to be in my backyard.It was certainly a different experience to say the least, am so used to running on flat surface here in Riyadh, Saudi that doing the hills certainly tested my calves and thighs, they were so sore after the race that I could not even climb stairs for at least couple of days.The views were fantastic but yep agree that some places were so steep that i was not even sure that i could climb down, let alone run. Anyway all in all fanatic venue, good organisation, a big thank to Tom and his team (organiser/volunteers) for their wonderful efforts, without them this would not be possible.Date of review: August 23, 2009
In short: Not as tough as you would think!In full: Reading the reviews from last year, I was concerned that this race might be a half marathon version of the 'Jack & Jill 5 Mile' event near Hassocks in West Sussex, which basically involves running up and down the Downs twice (very steep long climbs). However, this course wasn't too bad in terms of hills (my first half marathon [first started running 6 weeks before]and my time was just over 2 hours). I felt that most of the course was downhill and the inclines were generally no greater then 50 m in length. Obviously if it hadn't have been raining so much in the days leading up to the race, it would have been easier. Its a good first test for a trail runner (I would say), but certainly run the first half of the race slower, as the course does start to effect you from around the 9 mile mark on.In saying all of this, it really depends on what kind of courses you run in practice, as to how hard you will find this event i.e. if you've only been running on the flat (roads), you're probably going to struggle to get a good time at Milland.To finish on a positive, you get a very nice medal at the end, and the whole event is run very well in beautiful surroundings! Very enjoyable!Date of review: August 6, 2009
In short: One of my favouritesIn full: The mud made it much harder and I missed not having the steps and the small ford across a forest path. Enjoyed my pint and rump steak and fries in the Rising Sun in the village afterwards. Definetely the best way to spend a Sunday in August!Date of review: August 6, 2009
In short: Very challenging course.In full: Very challenging course with lots to think about on the way round. Much more enjoyable than a normal half marathon. extreme mud slopes made it more entertaining! Thanx to the very excited lady marshall on the 8 mile marker!Date of review: August 4, 2009
In short: hills and mud - what more could you ask for on one of the best trail runs in the south?In full: good to see the course reverting to its original direction, far preferred it compared to last year but have never known there to be so much mud at this time of year - more cross country than trail at times. well signed and great marshals, thank you liss runnersliked the small course alterations which removed some of the road sections and the steps.see you next year.Date of review: August 4, 2009
In short: An excellent run - tough, varied and challenging. Great facilities!Date of review: August 4, 2009

Expert Patricia Smith offers a caregiver stress-relieving advice as she tries to cope with her daughter�s disability.
QUESTION: My daughter has had a double lung transplant. Her lungs are great, but she also had a stroke that affected her speech. Also, her attitude has changed completely. She will not exercise or eat right. She spends a lot of time in bed and sleeps. She doesn't want anyone telling her what to do. If she doesn�t start eating, they will put in a feeding tube. I believe in healing. I know God wants her healthy and well. I also know I have a role to play in this and I don't want to get it wrong at her expense. She is a fighter but seems to have just quit. I feel my hands are tied. Do you have any advice for me?�Nancy
<img class="fiveminVideoPlayer" style="width:491px;height:366px;display:block;" src="https://spthumbnails.5min.com/10351452/517572556_cv1_491_366.jpg" alt="Baby Boomer Caregiving: Prevent Your Descent Into Caregiver Burnout" data-product="playerSeed" data-params="playList=517572556|||height=366|||width=491|||sid=1268|||origin=fts|||relatedMode=2|||relatedBottomHeight=60|||companionPos=|||hasCompanion=false|||autoStart=false|||colorPallet=%23FFEB00|||videoControlDisplayColor=%23191919|||shuffle=0|||continuous=true" />
ANSWER: Both you and your daughter have weathered a very difficult crisis. Often, after all of the medical procedures are completed, it appears the worst is over. Unfortunately, in many cases, the most heart-wrenching tasks still lie ahead.
First of all, it is important to check in with your daughter�s medical professionals and assess if she is experiencing debilitating depression. Her body, mind and spirit have survived a fair amount of trauma and need time to repair and heal. As her caregiver, your hands are never tied. Assess what you can do to help, such as making sure her immediate medical needs are met. Is she taking her medication regularly and in proper doses? Is her environment clean, safe and well-organized? Does she have access to everything she needs, such as fresh water and easy access to a restroom?
Once her basic needs are met, you can then tackle some of the tougher tasks. Helping her to understand the need for proper nourishment can present a challenge. Forcing her to eat may solve the problem in the short term, but you require a long-term solution as healthy food choices will help to heal her body and spirit. Start the process by thinking of the two of you as a team. You are traveling together on her path to wellness. This dictates that you discuss everything with your daughter and allow her to lead the way. Being respectful of her choices is a must. If at any time you do not know her choice, ask. The most important thing a caregiver can do to promote healing is to allow those we serve to remain as independent as possible, for as long as possible. We only need to take control when someone in our care is in immediate physical or mental danger.
When communicating concerns to a physician, nurse, physical therapist, nutritionist or other healthcare professional. �it is imperative to gather as much information as possible so a successful assessment can be made. There is help in this area, such as Cheryl Carmichael�s excellent book Dare to Care�Caring for our Elders, available on Amazon.com. While her book is geared toward elder care, the checklists and other helpful hints offer a wide range of useful tips in caring for all ages.
Healing is possible, but more time is required. Give both your daughter and yourself permission to �stay in the moment� and allow for the gift of healing to take hold. Monitor her actions and behaviors, and call on help, if necessary.
Got a caregiving question? Submit yours here.�

Something they don't tell you until it's too late...
Posted by Reviewer2229703 on May 07, 2009
If you have grey hair and want to use a golden (D) or other color outside of the N series, you have to supplement your color with an N color. The boxes say "100% grey coverage," but the inside directions say you need to add some of the N color when mixing to guarantee grey coverage. I ordered my color and was all set to start and then had to order a second box if the N series, so I was not very happy. Then, the second box took more than a week to arrive, even with priority shipping. When I finally was able to do my hair, however, I can say I was pleased with the results.
Hair Color 7N, Blonde
Posted by Reviewer2034783 on Nov 19, 2009
I have originally dark brown hair, with some grey. The shades after the coloring looks natural. Lasts up to 4 weeks.No smell, comes with a conditioner with lovely smell.
GREAT haircolor - NO damage
Posted by Mearced on Feb 27, 2009
I use this with 7C Ash Blonde for a perfect match to my natural color. It covers grey REALLY well and my hair is never damaged. Actually, it seems even more conditioned after use. I've also used other lighter colors such as 9N Honey Blonde to lighten without damage.
Fantastic Hair Color!
Posted by Reviewer1116279 on Jan 03, 2008
As a hairdresser, I'm very impressed with Herbatint. So natural looking, you cannot tell the difference. And it is much safer and healthier for you.
Sooo much better than salon color!
Posted by Reviewer3274639 on Dec 03, 2011
I mix 7 N with 8N and add some 5R. This gets me to my original color. It says blonde but it's not. I end up with shiny medium brunette with reddish highlights in the light. It looks like highlights - I think because it covers the gray differently. Marginal coverage on the coarse gray hair on my temples.
Best haircolor on the market
Posted by Reviewer2931720 on Mar 12, 2009
I have tried many different hair colorings over the years & each one stripped my hair & damaged it. This is the best hair color out there. Absolutely no odor or fumes, long-lasting color that really covers the gray, natural looking, & leaves your hair in better condition than before you colored. I have used this for several years now & am hooked!!!
Gentle and it WORKS!
Posted by Reviewer3117860 on Jul 23, 2007
I like to mix a little of this shade with 8N for the perfect shade and always get shiny, healthy hair. It is so gentle - I can't use the usual drug store brands because they cause a bad allergic reaction. Antica Herbavita is the best!
Environmentally friendly hair colouring.
Posted by Reviewer2043309 on Jul 05, 2010
Easy to use and can be used 2 times on shorter hair. Colour may be a bit darker than colour stated on packet, but lasts well.
Healthy hair color
Posted by Reviewer1078931 on Jun 01, 2009
Didn't lighten my dark hair. Covered gray, but was hoping to go a lighter shade. I usually use chestnut or mahogany. I think Herbatint is the absolute best for coverage of gray roots and toxic free product out there. I ordered mahogany today.
Posted by BereMaury on Oct 21, 2014
El tinte lo utilicé en cabello castaño claro y quedó del mismo color que se muestra en la caja, pero aunque se llama "blonde" no es rubio. El cabello queda brilloso y suave. A pesar de tener químicos no es como los tintes comerciales dañinos que utilizan amoniaco. El color es precioso y se empiezan a notar las raíces como a los 2-3 meses.

Thanks!It's a problem though... I eat like a pie every time I make them
It's for my families catering business, we don't produce them really for sale per se. We cater school lunches and used to buy our pizzas from a nearby pizzeria, but at the cost we were paying, it made sense for me to learn and start making my own. Though next week I'm adding a second school so will be doing about 25 pies 2 times a week So I've only been at it a few months I mentioned it more in my intro post herehttp://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,27517.msg278593.html#msg278593

"Get classroom and technology tips at

This is my fifth year working with Kindergarten, prior to that I worked at a few different preschools for seven years. I love working with the little ones! I am also all about technology - I love seeing the way that it engages the students!
Active engagement is the key! I love playing games with my kids and doing hands on activities. I also love incorporating technology. There is always a way to make it fun to learn, and I intend to find that way!

Inpatients had mostly negative experiences of seclusion during short term treatment in a mental health facility
QUESTION: How do patients experience seclusion during short term inpatient treatment in a mental health facility?
Semi structured interviews.
2 open, acute care units of a large tertiary mental health facility in Queensland, Australia.
12 patients (58% men) who were 18–52 years of age and were secluded in the previous 7 days (mean duration 3.4 h).
Semi structured, thematically organised interviews were audiotaped and transcribed. Transcripts were checked for errors against the audiotaped versions and were analysed using the process of meaning categorisation. Themes were identified and coded to produce categories. All members of the research team agreed on the final categorisations. These broad categories were further analysed, and themes were used to reflect patients' experiences of seclusion.
Main findings
5 recurrent themes emerged. (1) Patients described the use of seclusion. Some patients thought that seclusion was used inappropriately and that the seclusion period was of more benefit to …

The following is an interview with Cogswell College alumnus, Pat Gillette (2006), who earned a BA in Digital Art & Animation and is currently an Animator for 343 Industries (a division of Microsoft)
Q. Company name, your job title, a brief description of your job responsibilities and how long you have worked there.
A. I started at 343 Industries in March, 2011 as a gameplay animator. I'm responsible for creating in-game character animations and vignette's utilizing key frame and motion capture pipelines. In other words, make stuff look good any way I can.
Q. Can you give an example of what you might do on a 'typical' day?
A. During production on Halo 4, I'd start my day between 8 and 9, do the usual email checking and try to remember what I was working on the day before. Then I'd get to start animating any number of characters doing any number of things, although most of those things are violent. I was also the 'character owner' for a number of characters and so I'd usually spend some part of the day reviewing other people's work and giving feedback. The goal was to improve the overall animation but also to maintain a consistent look and feel for the characters across multiple animators. Throw in a lunch/workout break, some bug fixing, problem solving, goofing off, writing tutorials, playtesting, occasional meetings and more animating and you have a 'typical' day that ends somewhere between 5 and midnight.
Q. Can you give an example of something that surprised you about your job when you first started?
You mean besides the fact that people pay me to do this job? I think it's surprising how much you learn day to day on the job – and that's also one of the most exciting parts!
Q. What projects have you worked on in the past?
A. The list starts pretty sad, but it gets better so hang in there. Drumroll Please!
Leapfrog's ClickStart Educational Software
Leapfrog's My First PC
Disney Pixar's Finding Nemo: Sea of Keys
Create and Learn
Disney Pixar's Toy Story
Godzilla Unleashed Double Smash (Nintendo DS)
Spiderman Vs. the Masked Menace (TV Plug and Play)
Tomb Raider: Underworld (Nintendo DS)
Red Faction: Beast (Wii, Cancelled)
Tales of Monkey Island: Chapters 1,2,3. (Wii, PC)
Halo: Reach (XBox 360}
Penguins of Madagascar: Dr. Blowhole Returns Again (Wii, PS3, XBox 360 Kinect)
Halo 4 (XBox 360)
Q. What do you find most rewarding about your job?
A. Seeing people get excited about the work you're doing is pretty great. We often get to display our work on a big screen in front of the whole company and when you get a studio-wide reaction to an animation you've worked on it's a pretty wonderful feeling. Combine that with the millions of people who willingly pay money to play something you helped create is amazing.
Q. What advice would you give students preparing for a career like yours?
A. Work really, really hard. Ask lots of questions and REALLY listen to the answers. Teachers tend to know some stuff that might be good to pick up. Be nice to people. College is equal parts learning and networking, so take advantage of both while you are there.
Q. What qualities does someone need to have to be successful in this field?
A. You need to be intrinsically motivated to keep getting better. It's not that hard to get too comfortable with your abilities or your job and soon you'll find yourself at the same quality level you were when you left college, and guess what, other people are working harder than you to get better, and they'll succeed if you don't do something about it. Unfortunately, most jobs would like you to get better but they don't really help you do it, so it's up to you to do it on your own time.
It also helps to be a people person, or at least be nice. You want people to like you, so that when job opportunities come up, your old co-workers remember you fondly, would want to work with you again and recommend you for positions at their company. I can proudly say I have never started a job where I didn't know someone there before me who gave me a strong recommendation. This 'learning and networking' thing is a recurring theme.
Q. How did Cogswell helped prepare you for this career?
A. Cogswell gave me the opportunity to develop the foundational skills and the connections to start my career in animation.

USA Women Defeat Belgium
CORDOBA, Argentina - The USA Field Hockey Women's National Team defeated Belgium, 4-0, today as they continue their six-game test series in Argentina. Striker Katie O'Donnell scored a hat-trick.
The USA Women's Team is in preparations for the 2010 AtaHolding Women's World Cup Qualifier in San Diego, CA, scheduled for March 26 to April 3, 2010 at the U.S. Olympic Training Center at Chula Vista.
"Belgium is a good side," said Head Coach Lee Bodimeade. "They play hard. They have a different style, and coming off our series with the Netherlands and China we knew we had to play hard to beat them."
Belgium is one of five teams the USA will face at the 2010 AtaHolding Women's World Cup Qualifier. Canada, Mexico, Korea, and France will also participate.
"We wanted to show Belgium what they will be up against in four weeks," said Bodimeade.
Katie O'Donnell scored three goals to pace the United States.
"It's awesome," said O'Donnell. "I've been going through a bit of a scoring slump having not scored a senior goal since the 2005 Champions Challenge, so I feel proud for my team and myself for finally scoring!"
Rachel Dawson added a fourth goal on a penalty corner blast. Goalkeeper Jackie Kintzer, in her second international appearance, secured the shutout for the USA.
The USA will face Chile on Saturday, February 20, before closing out the test series against Argentina's Las Leonas on Sunday, February 21.
The USA next play on their own home field, hosting the 2010 AtaHolding Women's World Cup Qualifier at the Olympic Training Center in Chula Vista, CA. The tournament champion will head to the BDO FIH 2010 Women's World Cup Rosario, Argentina in September.
Tickets to all games are now available. The AtaHolding Women's World Cup Qualifier features 18 matches over six days of competition. Half-price tickets can be purchased online for as little as $5.00 per person per day at www.usafieldhockey.com. Competition days feature three matches per day. Additional ticket promotions will be announced soon, including discounts for military personnel.
The AtaHolding Women's World Cup Qualifier is the largest senior international field hockey tournament to be held in the United States since the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta. USA Field Hockey hosted the 2009 BDO Women's Junior World Cup last August in Boston.
Nine teams have already automatically qualified for the 2010 BDO Women's World Cup. 18 other nations still have a chance to qualify through one of the three World Cup Qualifiers. The pools and locations for three Qualifiers are:
AtaHolding World Cup Qualifier, San Diego CA, USA, Friday 26 March- Saturday 3 April 2010
USA, Korea, Belgium, Canada, France, Mexico
BDO World Cup Qualifier, Kazan, Russia, Saturday 17-Sunday 25 April 2010
Japan, Azerbaijan, Italy, Russia, Belarus, Wales
BDO World Cup Qualifier, Santiago, Chile, Saturday 24 April-Sunday 2 May 2010
Australia, Ireland, Chile, Malaysia, Scotland, Trinidad & Tobago
The qualification system for the BDO FIH World Cup women 2010 is similar to the one used for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games and the Hero Honda FIH World Cup men 2010. Nine teams are directly qualified through the Continental Championships, while the remaining three vacancies will be filled from three separate qualification tournaments.
The format for the three World Cup Qualifiers is as it was for the Olympic Qualifiers: a six teams' single round robin competition with a final to decide which team will qualify.
The following teams are directly qualified for the BDO FIH World Cup women, to be played in Rosario, Argentina from 30 August-12 September 2010:
• Argentina (Host and Champion of the 3rd Women's Pan American Cup)
• South Africa (Champion of the Africa Cup of Nations, 2009)
• New Zealand (Champion of the 6th Women's Oceania Cup)

The FAO's 2010-2011 State of Food and Agriculture (SOFA) Report, Women in Agriculture: Closing the Gender Gap for Development, revealed some compelling and informative findings about the critical but underutilized role women play in the food and agriculture industry globally. It also gave some convincing reasons for why investing in women agriculturalists -- including farmers, fishers and others who work in agri-processing and marketing -- is so essential to food security, production, economic development, health, and related issues. In response to the SOFA report, this week at the 37th biennial conference in Rome, the Food and Agricultural Organization of the UN (FAO) mobilized a call to action under the theme: "The Vital Role of Women in Agriculture and Rural Development" to spur multilateral support for investing in women in agriculture and strengthening the case for making this a global economic priority.
At a side event to the conference co-hosted by the U.S. and Kenyan Ambassadors, "A Dialogue on Women in Agriculture: Where to After SOFA?" -- I had the privilege of speaking about the U.S. commitment to improving women's agricultural contributions, encouraging investments in female farmers, and sharing with my counterparts some exciting initiatives we are implementing to close the gender gap in agricultural development.
It is well known that women are at a significant disadvantage when it comes to owning land, securing land rights, and accessing credit and other agricultural inputs. The contributions of rural women in developing countries are too often overlooked and underutilized. This agricultural gender gap imposes real costs on society in terms of lost agricultural output, food security, and economic growth.
Yet, studies such as the SOFA report have shown that when given equal resources, women can produce yields equal to those of men. Since female farmers are typically starting from a lower point, investing in women would produce on average higher returns than an equal investment in men. According to the SOFA report, providing women with the same resources as men could increase their individual yields by 20-30 percent, which would improve agricultural production in the developing world by between 2.5 and 4 percent. Such an investment in women's agricultural capacity would reduce the number of people living in hunger by 100-150 million globally. The findings further point out that increasing women's access to land, livestock, education, financial services, extension, technology, and rural employment would boost their productivity and generate gains in terms of agricultural production, food security, economic growth, and social welfare.
Women are usually the ones doing the household cooking and feeding their families; thus they have a particular stake in ensuring that the food produced is both nutritious and safe. It would seem obvious that leveling the playing field for women in agri-business, fishing, farming, and related livelihoods is another example of "smart economics" which would have tremendous pay-offs to society at large.
By making women a central and essential part of Feed the Future (FTF), the U.S. global hunger and food security initiative, the U.S. is leading the way. FTF is developing the Women's Empowerment in Agriculture Index, a new tool being created in a partnership with the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), and the Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative (OPHI). This index is being designed to collect sex-disaggregated statistics to ensure that we can measure and understand the impact of our work on both men and women. It will be piloted in Uganda, Guatemala and Bangladesh, and be an essential tool that will help us determine the equality of and opportunities for women. By disaggregating data by sex, we will be better able to analyze the changes in status, participation and outcomes of our investments in women relative to men and as part of communities.
Through a concerted effort at the Rome conference, we explored innovative ways to better understand and advance gender equality in agriculture. I am even more convinced that scaling up multilateral efforts toward closing the gender gap in agriculture is a smart business investment that will benefit all humanity. It will enable future generations of women and girls, working in partnership with men and boys, contribute to reducing hunger, protecting livelihoods, and enhancing food security.
Note: More information on the Women's Empowerment in Agriculture Index is available at www.feedthefuture.gov.

Job is correct, consume is also, i think.
Now in order to overcome the economic crisis, it desperately needed reforms to finance is true, but in the meantime, many reform efforts, rather than a lot of progress has been regenerated, if such a situation before coming up to a big crisis, itself, have the potential to address jeokeurodo enough to believe that shoes. So, why? Should I keep occur?
Everyone knows that middle class is gone, and to restore them to the status of the old order, provide jobs for the middle class lost one must think that everyone knows. However, investors do provide easy job? Before I offer a job to find a way to promote consumption and to think. First, I exhausted the available stock, and (the role of government and big business is most important.) Now, the lower economic status of the old middle class by developing products that can be purchased (the price and the cost of the re-pricing all available for purchase The new product), while providing the citizens, I think the game will be activated.
My personal thoughts, while promoting consumption, create jobs policy is considered more important. Attract investors, and renewable energy (such as electric cars and to help design an entirely new part with this growth, service industries to the realization of an electric car) and health insurance reform to create jobs in new areas through to think. To return them to the jobs of existing policies is important, and paying off, but the U.S. economy is recovering gradually, but now the crisis that occurs outside of, the flow that causes hardening of the arteries, the lack of consumption of manufactured products , does not provide investment certainty for the economic crisis are considered.
Until today,
To the company's ceo, persuasion for the increase in employment, even if you do not provide consumer confidence in, more jobs would not be provided to expect.
Have a good idea?
i just sometimes go to itaewon,

(3 times for people who say things like preferences, even with such a preference, is likely to win and I want to say that is very weak. IMF has been governor of the French, they received a fairly severe impact that I think the foreign involvement in the election of a wrong act, but also losing a great supporter, a very unfortunate situation is considered.
Yeah, the original German - like a good idea to raise money to work, to spend their own taxes, to hold international game, I do not like it, but it is very hard when you do the best place, and looked like trying to think.) Korea access to the many times I try, to finish have been denied. I should be able to access any endorsement uncover, go to the car, wherever possible, I work only 1 hour arrived, I do not even know it would change, but until today ...
In fact, it already is stable in Germany, France, is very unstable.

That is normal for China and the United States, is in favor of fair competition. And in China, the European government bond purchases to teach you quite a positive effect I think. I am in China, the United States was hoping to purchase real estate and housing, along with Brazil

Slightly different from American capitalism, the Nordic welfare system is called, rather than the potential reluctance to provide many professional and competitive advantage than other countries in the United States a little bit of generalization of expensive medical technologies and operating techniques and manual qualified healthcare system Exports and collaboration system, if the current account surplus in the invisible exports are likely to keep the system will think (if, in the U.S. health care system to lower the cost of access for many people, gone to therapy in the United States likely to go believe that even now the system has the potential to bankrupt the citizens of the claims are too big.)
The United States now, thinking about the changing comparative advantage is the time to think. iphone is just old parts assembled product is Introduced a new concept here, and realize that the concept because it's a new app, and people in the desired direction, creativity gamihaeseo, everyone will believe you in this.
Think about health-care system, accessible to almost anyone, and the citizens is the time to select the desired direction, someone to match these needs and the direction I should go to action claims.
Many proposals are presented, it is possible, but, something that would impress people, all people belong to the federal impressive big breakthrough for the future realization of the proposal is deemed necessary. (Roosevelt room is remind)
Everyone knows the story will hold.
other proposals are so weak, i think.
Italy to Greece to help, wanted to determine the contribution, though, that the result goes in the direction of a good idea, but the area enclosed by a single category, the responsibility of the association of certain countries, what about that? Informal and formal instruction and the director likely to destroy the pride of the southern European countries and the opposition is expected. International Monetary Fund (IMF), but, still, strong control and a good grasp of the psychology of these countries that are considered necessary to intervene. I keep no support for the failure, and leave the responsibility to someone local, if it fails, I think a good way to take responsibility. Support is not dead to rights of way, I keep them, emphasizing the uniqueness of-corruption, governance and national operations by networking, etc. - even if it fails this time, they will swear to tell the remaining life must answer. If this happens repeatedly in 2012, also, who do take
In this article, raising, will always wonder. Who reads, is a little help?

Calif. newspaper: Teacher fired after same-sex ceremony
The Columbus Dispatch - August 02, 2013 04:12 PM
A California newspaper reports that a teacher has been fired from his position at a Catholic school after being featured with his partner in a video and story on gay marriages resuming in San Bernardino County.
The Inland Valley Daily Bulletin in Ontario, Calif., showed teacher Ken Bencomo and partner Christopher Persky getting married and kissing in a video posted July 1 on the newspaper's website. The couple also appeared in photographs for a July 2 story in the Daily Bulletin, according to The Sun of San Bernardino County.
This week, The Sun reported that Bencomo's lawyer says he was fired from his job as head of the English department at St. Lucy's Priory High School in Glendora. He had worked at the school for 17 years.
A spokesman for the Diocese of San Bernardino told The Sun that an employee can be fired if he or she "makes a public display of behavior that is counter to church teaching." The Catholic Church considers sex outside heterosexual marriage to be sinful.
The firing comes about four months after a gay physical-education teacher lost her position at a Catholic school in Columbus.
Carla Hale, who had taught at Bishop Watterson High School for about 19 years, was fired after she listed the name of her same-sex partner in an obituary for her mother that ran in The Dispatch.
The bishop in Columbus has said that Hale's decision to list her partner's name made the relationship public and initiated the termination process.

Some of Hampshire's best beaches are on Hayling Island, awarded the prestigious Blue Flag for their cleanliness and facilities. Hayling Island was the birthplace of windsurfing, and is still a leading centre for the sport. Stretches of coast on Hayling and between Portsmouth and Southampton, are backed by farmland, or nature reserves. Stokes Bay at Gosport also meets the exacting quality standards for sea-water cleanliness.
Among the most attractive beaches are those at Calshot and Lepe where the Country Park is surrounded by nature reserves. Here the views take in all the shipping passing in and out of Southampton Water, and sailing craft from Hamble and Cowes. At Netley, the Royal Victoria Country Park overlooks the approaches to the port, as well as the dramatic Fawley Oil Refinery. Further beaches can be enjoyed at Milford on Sea and New Milton, opposite the Needles, a dramatic series of sea-ravaged chalk outcrops off the Isle of Wight.
Hampshire's estuaries and harbours are also full of interest. Langstone Harbour contains an important bird reserve. The Hamble contains great contrast, with the upper reaches free of the marinas for which the river, lower down, has become famous. The Beaulieu River also contains relatively few sailing boats and can be enjoyed by river cruises in the summer months. While the Lymington River has many boats moored and ferry boats crossing to the Isle of Wight, otters have returned to the reed beds of the nature reserve upstream.
