High-level internal discussions are going on at giant drug company GlaxoSmithKline as a result of the story on this blog two days ago, which pointed out that babies in most of Africa would not get their vaccine against pneumococcal disease until 2012.
The vaccine, called Synflorix, protects against pneumonia, the leading cause of infant deaths, and other killer infections including meningitis. In March, there was a big triumphal announcement from Gavi (Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunisation), which had done a deal with GSK and Pfizer to supply 30 million doses each of vaccine every year, potentially saving millions of lives. The deal was a triumph for the Advance Market Commitment (AMC), a new financing mechanism dreamed up by donor nations including the UK designed to encourage pharma to produce vaccines for poor countries.
But what we did not hear was that the World Health Organisation had already told GSK it wants two further six-month studies of Synflorix. The vaccine is two shots in one vial. It means half the contents need to be drawn up in one syringe for one baby and the other half with a new syringe for the next. GSK say it is cheaper and quicker to get lots of vaccine out to Africa this way. But the WHO wants to be sure it is properly used in an African setting, which means extra training for healthcare workers.
Until the data is in, Unicef, which buys for the AMC, has decided not to start supplying Africa apart from Kenya, where the trials will take place. It does not stop others, such as NGOs, from buying the vaccine, but most are likely to wait for the UN. And Pfizer's vaccine is not WHO registered yet, so most African children are going to have to wait.
GSK points out that the roll-out of vaccine was always going to take a while, but it is stung by criticisms that it's decision to market a two-shot vial in Africa instead of the one-shot we have in Europe may have resulted in delay.
"We are taking this extremely seriously. People are looking at this at the highest levels," I was told. GSK is absolutely committed to getting its vaccines to children in poor countries, they say, and it considers the AMC to be hugely important in enabling pharma companies to commit to production for the developing world.

James McAvoy Talks X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST
Sharing elements from
First Class
that he hopes transpires in
X-Men: Days of Future Past
, James McAvoy discusses going bald for his mutant mentor role as the younger Prof Xavier and More.
Filed Under: "
Total Film
As Patrick Stewart is "
greatly looking forward
" to reprising his respective role as the modern-day Professor Charles Xavier, Bryan Singer's
X-Men: Days of Future Past
will overtly also see the
First Class
period iteration of the character, played by James McAvoy. The Scottish actor recently spoke with
Total Film
in their latest mag' issue, where he modestly discussed the 2014 sequel.
"I thought the biggest thing that X-Men: First Class gave the franchise was a real palpable sense of humor that wasn't just for a couple of moments,"
McAvoy admits.
"It was running through the thing. And I hope that continues. I don't know how easy it will be for me to be a part of that as my
character's going to be in a pretty fucked up place. It's a shame because I like the fact that Charles Xavier was witty and funny and a bit of a lecherous old guy trapped in a 30-year-old's body."
Although he played coy about
Days of Future Past
story details, James McAvoy did confirm that there will be an explanation as to why and how Prof. X will go bald, which the casting of Stewart, alone, affirms will occur.
"[screenwriter] Simon Kinberg and I had a chat about it and we came up with a whole bunch of idea about how, why and where he might go bald. It's got to be linked to the plot though. In the comics, he lost his hair as soon as his powers awakened, and we clearly didn't follow the source material. It can't just be that he looks in the mirror at the end of the film and goes 'Oh fuck, I'm losing my hair'. Although that could be quite funny with all this shit going on... he goes 'Arge, I'm really stressed...'"
While Fox's Marvel Property Creative Consultant, Mark Millar, has alluded to
X-Men: Days of Future Past
finally featuring the giant robotic Sentinels, we've yet to receive confirmation; even after
Total Film
asked James McAvoy. The
actor laughed before saying,
"As a fan of the X-Men world and lexicon, I share lots of other fans' hopes and dreams and I'd like to see Sentinels..."
In addition,
Total Film
also questioned two of James McAvoy's
X-Men: First Class
co-stars, actress Rose Byrne and Banshee actor Caleb Landry Jones, about whether they'll be reprising their roles in
X-Men: Days of Future Past
. Both thespians said they have yet to be contacted, but would "absolutely love" to return and show more of who their characters are, if asked. Anyhow,
X-Men: Days of Future Past
stars Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy, Jennifer Lawrence, Hugh Jackman, Nicholas Hoult, Jason Flemyng with Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart. And reportedly scheduled to commence principal photography in Spring next year, Bryan Singer directs the anticipated
X-Men: Days of Future Past
time travel adaptation into theaters on July, 18 2014 in 2D and 3D!

Very cool, but completely nonfunctional military radio receiver. It appears there was a many pin connector on the bottom of the device, but the connector is gone and all the wires were clipped. These are great to harvest for knobs and gauges or to use as a home for an Arduino project.

All I get is a recorded message saying "the office is very busy but your call is important to us". It caused much distress to myself and my new husband… Read Full Review

Aplus Entertainment said they would provide an entertainer, bouncy castle and face painter. They took the deposit, and after many phone calls, I got a phone call from the entertainer who was only given my number because I insisted on it. No bouncy castle or face painter came, and it ruined my daughters party… Read Full Review

David Moyes described his Manchester United team's defending as "diabolical" after they conceded a dramatic injury-time equaliser to bottom-of-the-table Fulham in yet another chapter of misery for the club's new manager.
Having fallen behind to Steve Sidwell's first-half goal for Fulham, United took the lead within less than two minutes with goals from Robin van Persie and Michael Carrick. Then, in the seventh of 13 home league games at Old Trafford this season that they have failed to win, Darren Bent capitalised on mistakes by Carrick and Nemanja Vidic to score an equaliser.
At this stage last season, after 25 games, United were top of the table with 62 points, 21 more than they currently have. Asked afterwards whether he ever thought his first season at United would have gone so badly, Moyes said, "probably not"
The United manager said: "Even when it was 2-1 and they put five minutes up [time added on], Fulham never came up the pitch, they left us with the ball so it was nearly a case of just playing out time and we gave away a diabolical second goal. If we had one failing it was that we should have gone on to win 3-1. We had a couple of chances to make it 3-1 and we didn't make those moments count and that was probably the biggest thing."
In chasing Fulham's early lead, United crossed the ball a record 81 times – the most by a Premier League team since 2006 – as they tried to break down a Fulham team that did not include Scott Parker, Brede Hangeland, Bent or Damien Duff in the starting XI. Moyes agreed that his players' concentration had slipped badly.
"You could use maybe mental softness that we didn't see the job out and get the job done," he said, "I would agree with that. The players are hurting. I can see every day that they're hurting because the results aren't going the way they want. They're really good professionals in the way they go about their work and what I see in training makes me feel they'll get results.
"I don't know if we could have done an awful lot more, maybe defended a bit better a couple of times and taken a few more of the chances we made but we completely dominated the game and should have won the game comfortably.

And his manager David Moyes is equally dejected as Manchester United once again drop points at home
"That was it. I thought we did create chances but we didn't convert when we did get some half chances and we ended up having to chase. We started the game really well, did a lot of good things and found ourselves a goal down which shouldn't have been the case. Nevertheless there was only one winner in the game and that was Manchester United."
Moyes denied that his team had failed to vary their attack beyond crossing the ball. "It was never one way. If you're just going to look at the stats and think about the crosses you need to think about the number of passes and I don't think we just went out and crossed the ball. Some people might say that one of the things that Manchester United do is play with width and cross the ball, that's in the genes here.
Rene Meulensteen, the Fulham manager, said the late equaliser had "felt like a win" for his players. He said: "I do think that a few teams have come here with a different sort of approach because certain teams have come here and done well and got something. West Brom, Southampton, Swansea, Newcastle, Everton. Everton at times had to defend and defend but they got the goal and held on to it. So yes I do think there's a little bit of that."
He added: "If you're well organised and the goalkeeper is in good positions to come and collect the ball at times, yeah, it can be easy [to defend against crosses]. You need a little bit of creativity and a bit of variety at times to open [teams] up. The first goal they scored was from a ball that was in a second phase, fell and was a sort of pass across the goal that got tapped in. And the second came from a clearance then a shot and a deflection."

One of the good things about being a student is that you don't have to spend much time looking on the bright side.
Ditch the moaning about debt, study deadlines, job prospects or flatmates, and you'll soon run out of conversation and find it harder to form those empathetic bonds with fellow students that being at university is all about.
But there are times - in a cold January in the middle of a recession, say, suffering from post-Christmas debts, a hangover, and no heating - when it's useful to learn how to be optimistic.
First, think about your debts. Think about how much worse it would be if interest rates weren't at their lowest level since 1951. Thanks to the Bank of England cutting its base rate last month, the student loan interest rate has been cut from 3.8% to 3%, and will fall again if the bank's base rate goes down any further. So the bigger your debt, the richer you are - relatively speaking.
Next, you may be living in a rat-infested basement with a broken boiler, but at least it probably belongs to someone else. That means no mortgage. If it does belong to you, great! You managed to get on the housing ladder, and because the number of students is rising, you'll probably still be able to let it.
Now, studying. By now you will probably have had to do some work. You may even have exams. This means you can no longer kid yourself that you can sail through your course without reading anything or going to any lectures. This can be a bit of a downer. On the other hand, it reminds you that if studying were that easy, a degree wouldn't be worth having. Also, spending time in libraries is cheap. And warm.
Finally, flatmates. They may neglect the washing-up, leave damp towels on the carpet and spend every evening snogging a different stranger on the sofa, but at least you're not married to them. And if you are, great! You managed to find a life partner who's prepared to put up with you swanning about all day getting into debt.
If you're still struggling to keep your chin up, bear in mind that looking on the bright side when you're a student is easy. It is only when you find yourself in the world of work, needing to assure your boss of 110% commitment, that your powers of optimism are really going to be tested.

Two aims of increasing importance in clinical and quality management are identifying areas of iatrogenic risk and improving patient safety. In this issue of CHEST (see page 1315), Duncan et al2 describe a complex and comprehensive intervention performed by personnel in an academic pulmonary medicine group practice that is designed to reduce the risk of pneumothorax after outpatient thoracenteses. The authors emphasize the component of the intervention that uses experiential training in a zero-risk (simulation) environment. Simulation-based experiential learning was an important part of their intervention. We would submit, however, that this study is much more complicated than just a "training story." We believe that one of the important lessons of the article by Duncan and colleagues2 is that training alone is rarely enough; it is system analysis and process change, reinforced by intensive training and changes in medical culture, that really are the linchpins of the safest clinical practices and process improvements in health care.

Nissan North America is recalling 46,859 model year 2013-2015 LEAF vehicles manufactured November 19, 2012, to July 31, 2015.
In very cold temperatures, the relay inside the electronic brake booster may freeze, requiring the driver to exert more effort to slow the vehicle down. Longer distances or additional brake effort required to stop the vehicle could increase the risk of a crash.
What to do
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the Intelligent Brake Control Unit software, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule.
Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

Life is a cycle of four pieces, each named as a prayer for a different time of day, from morning to night. A boy's voice intones texts from time to time but, apart from the more extensively sung third piece, all four works are mostly laid out for strings with various wind and percussion. They date from the early Nineties, just before Kancheli - who was well- established in his native Georgia during the Soviet era - left the mess of post-independence life for the West.
Over the last decade, Kancheli has acquired a cult following, as Henryk Gorecki had before the popular success of his Third Symphony. In both cases, it rests on lengthy scores with an overwhelming atmosphere of contemplative gloom. There the resemblance ends. Kancheli, unlike Gorecki - or, for that matter, John Tavener and Arvo Part - is not a lapsed modernist whose yearning for the past forced a way through. He has always headed in this direction, having grown against a background of the early 20th-century Russians, Shostakovich and Prokofiev.
The music, for all its consonant, rooted nature and the uncovered directness of its emotion, is quite contemporary in feeling. Two immediate qualities stand out. The prevailing slow, spare writing is unsettled: one thing gives way to another, rather than resolving itself before it moves on. Then, against this restless but ultimately static background, the sudden short eruptions of noise and fury are right out of proportion. They, too, do not resolve. Sometimes they fizzle out, like a cry of despair that loses heart because nobody is listening. Sometimes they stop as abruptly as they started.
Two pieces, "Evening Prayers" and "Night Prayers", were here receiving their first UK performances. Of these, the first, with a chorus of altos singing throughout, is the most melodic and continuous of the whole cycle, and the most straightforwardly thematic as it builds to a climax of lyrical lamentation. "Night Prayers", expanded from a Kronos Quartet commission, is the most quietly intense for nearly all its duration, until it explodes in the longest and most harrowing of plaints. John Harle, the solo saxophonist, powered into the same dynamic extremes he had reached in Birtwistle's Panic at the Last Night of the Proms - an aesthetically opposite side of the same expressive coin.
Even so, "Daytime Prayers" delivered the year's single most frightening musical moment as the clarinettist, Michael Collins, had his screaming high entry reinforced by piccolo and cymbals. This is music whose stark immediacy requires the full, meditative lengths that follow, once its impact is accepted. The London Sinfonietta players, conducted by Markus Stenz, took it stiffly to start, but warmed to the arrival of the London Sinfonietta Voices in "Evening Prayers". Matthew Brown, a small boy with big shoes, undermined the magic of his on-stage arrival with a noisy plod to the front, and then sang with chilling precision.

This review is from: Razer Kraken 7.1 Surround Sound USB Over Ear Gaming Headset
I've owned these things for 2 years and they haven't crapped out yet. Listening to music is fine and I can decently hear where people are in game thanks to the help of Razer's 3D audio software.
I HAD to buy a separate $15 microphone for these because of the sound quality.
For the first year they were very uncomfortable (maybe they shaped my head).
After about 5 hours of use they start to hurt.
To be honest there are headsets with better sound quality and comfort out there for lower the price. I don't suggest.
Other Thoughts:
A month back they started buzzing and I thought they were breaking but it turned out to be my motherboard's audio jacks.

"All of the appliances that you see are Energy Star rated. In addition to that, we have the programmable thermostats for the air-conditioning units that are also Energy Star rated."
Jim MacKinnon has been in the construction business for 30 years, but he's most proud of his latest project. At Cypresswood Estates, each apartment is full of the latest energy efficient building materials.
"All of the water fixtures that you see in the kitchens and the bathrooms are water efficient. They require very little water."
Cypresswood Estates is Harris County's first attempt at building affordable housing that's also completely green.
"This will be the Mayflower and then you'll get the rest of the ships coming through. The next three that we build, they'll be green also."
Guy Rankin is the CEO and Executive Director of the Harris County Housing Authority. The latest project, which opened earlier this month with 88 units, is the first affordable housing development in the country that's LEED Platinum Certified. The complex has hundreds of energy efficient features, from solar panels on five buildings and rain water harvesting to better insulation.
"R-19 on the walls and R-45 on the ceilings. You can go into some of these apartment units and you don't have to turn on the air conditioner. We've had 25 days of 100 degree weather or more, and guess what? Some people don't turn on their air conditioner. That's got to be unique. You can turn on the ceiling fan and be cool."
That comes in handy for new resident Mary Lu Robinson, who moved in a few weeks ago. She's expecting lower utility bills.
"I'm on a fixed income and every cent, everything I can save, helps. But here, you can see the difference. So far, I haven't gotten my bills, but it's wonderful."
Cypresswood Estates is for adults 55 years and older who meet certain income requirements. Most of the units lease for about half of market price.
Guy Rankin says this is just the start.
"I think everybody will do this in the future. I think it makes sense, especially with the limited resources out there. Government has limited resources, so most people are looking for smarter government. Not a bigger government, not a smaller government, but a smarter government and this is definitely the smart way to go."
Rankin says the Housing Authority's goal is to create an entire development that's Net Zero, which means it would be totally energy efficient, off the power grid with no electric bills.

First I couldn't believe the service from autoanything ! I had the bulbs in 3 days. they came from the other coast ! second it sounds trivial but I was amazed at the packaging. I thought if they put this much attention into the packaging the bulbs have to be great. AND THEY ARE. The amount of visibility on high beams is FANTASTIC! I would recommend these to anyone looking for an upgrade in bulbs that don't want to spend 40 or 50 dollars for light bulbs. would buy again !

- A Web site has been created to register as many original Ford Mustang owners as possible for 50th anniversary celebrations in 2014.
- The site's creator, Kathy Miller, has so far tracked down 21 original or legacy owners of 1964.5 Mustangs.
- In addition to those first-year Mustangs, Miller also wants to register original owners of other models from 1964 through 1973.
BOARDMAN, Ohio — With plans for celebrations of the 50th anniversary of Ford's Mustang in full swing, Kathy Miller is on a mission to track down as many original owners as possible. The celebration is tied to the debut of the highly anticipated 2015 Ford Mustang.
Miller has set up a web page where original owners of 1964.5 through 1973 Mustangs can register their cars. As well as maintaining the registry for information purposes, she hopes to gather as many original owners as possible for the 50th anniversary celebrations, scheduled for April 15 - 20, 2014, in Las Vegas and Charlotte, North Carolina.
In addition to original owners, Miller's web site also has space for registration by "legacy" owners — those with cars that have been in their families since new — and even a "Wish I'd Kept It" section for previous owners who let Mustangs slip out of their grasp.
Miller, a real estate agent from Boardman, Ohio, is the original owner of a Prairie Bronze Mustang coupe, which she received as a high-school graduation present. As she explains on the web site: "My mother had bought me a watch, but my Dad had bought me a Mustang!"
That car, the first Mustang sold at the local Ford dealership, was a basic model with no radio, power steering, power brakes or air conditioning. The teenager wasted no time in correcting the first omission: she used some of her graduation money to add the all-important AM radio.
The car carried Miller through four years at Ohio State University, stayed with her as she followed her husband to several military bases and transported clients to look at houses. As time wore on, the Mustang needed some TLC, and Miller's son, Nathan, completed a restoration to concours standards.
Miller began her quest for original Mustang owners in 2009, locating 13 of them in preparation for the Mustang's 45th anniversary celebration in Birmingham, Alabama. There she arranged for nine of the original-owner cars to be displayed in a place of honor. When she tracked down Ford CEO Alan Mulally at the event to give him a hat and t-shirt, Miller told Edmunds, "He spoke with each owner individually and had his picture taken with all the cars."
Since then, she's been able to find 21 original or legacy owners of 1964.5 Mustangs. But as other Mustang owners heard about her initiative and asked to be included, Miller expanded her search to include all first-generation Mustangs, those built from 1964 through 1973.
In addition to the Web site, Miller beats the bushes in person at various events. She attended the 2013 SEMA show in Las Vegas, where she did some PR work and made a bit of progress. "Several people told me about original owners they knew and gave me their contact information," she said.
Through her efforts, Miller says she's met some great owners with interesting stories to tell about their Mustangs. "Honestly," she said, "sometimes we're not even sure why we kept them. But we love them."
Edmunds says: Kathy Miller's enthusiasm for classic Mustangs should serve as inspiration for other original owners to assist in her registry initiative.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I looked on the California Government website for information, but was unable to find anything about the publishing industry. (BTW, in case this makes any difference. I do not handle any purchases, as my books are sold on Amazon.)
I am not licensed in CA, so can only answer in general terms. While you probably do not need a special license, I cannot believe CA would allow you to operate a book publishing business withot a business permit. I doubt you can open a business bank acount without one. You will have to be in the state corporate income tax system. Will you have any employees? Then you need to be in the unemployment and worker compensation systems.
Here is a portal with general information about opening a business in CA.
You may also need to obtain a local business license.
It doesn't matter that you are selling through Amazon. When you do that, how do you handle sales ta? Does Amazon handle that for you?Ask a similar question
Please see the guide linked below, or one like it, which is not unique to the publishing industry but has everything you need to strart a small business in CA.
You may also want to hire a business lawyer to make sure you've formed a separate business entity with appropriate tax status, registered an available domain name that is also viable as a trademark, liability insurance, etc. etc.

I am not aware of any specific state license requirement for a book publisher in California. However, you will need a city business license in the are where the business is established.

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. — Sean Davis sat down in the back row of an empty conference room, its glass double doors overlooking the BB&T Stadium turf, where children and parents tossed footballs around after another Wake Forest win. The Maryland safety glanced outside then turned away. His hands rubbed his face and his stare was blank.
"It hurt," he said. "It hurt me real bad."
The carnage that occurred here before dusk Saturday afternoon was brutal. It happened swift and without mercy. During the 34-10 shredding by Wake Forest, the Terrapins had both their quest for bowl eligibility halted with a thud and medical hardships reach their nadir. Last season, Maryland watched four quarterbacks suffer season-ending injuries. But this? This felt even worse.
The bumps and bruises were there. Back spasms sidelined linebacker L.A. Goree during warmups, and safety Anthony Nixon hurt his toe on the first defensive series. But both stayed on the sidelines. Neither left on a stretcher, bound for surgery and months of rehabilitation. As the Terps learned that wide receivers Stefon Diggs (broken fibula) and Deon Long (broken fibula and tibia) were both lost for the season with injuries incurred here, Maryland's players again face the unenviable task of replacing the irreplaceable.
The talking points were clear. Coach Randy Edsall, running back Albert Reid and defensive lineman Darius Kilgo each said the team must "move forward" during postgame interviews. Maryland has enough wideout depth to avoid last season's injury-related absurdity — linebacker Shawn Petty finished out the season at quarterback — but Long and Diggs were the team's two leading receivers with 66 total catches, more than 1,000 combined yards and four total touchdowns between them.
"Any game could be your last," Reid said. "That's why they say play every play like it's your last, because you never know when it's going to be your last play. [Edsall] talks about it all week in practice: Go hard, go hard, we've got a big game coming up, every game is a big game. It showed today. You have to play every play like it's your last."
Long and Diggs suffered their season-ending injuries in eerily similar fashion Saturday. Just like the ACL tears that fell three quarterbacks in 2012 and the shoulder injuries that have infiltrated Maryland's linebacking corps this season, Diggs and Long broke the same bone in the same game, leaving the team's healthy players stunned by what had just unfolded.
"It sucks," Davis said. "But you know we just have to use this experience, just have to come together, use it as a building experience, just come back stronger. When adversity hits, that's really going to see what our team is made out of. We got punched in the face today. We have to regroup and come back next week, start fighting back."
Edsall has taken measures to ensure injuries don't disrupt the team's weekly routine. Injured players Matt Robinson, Alex Twine, Dexter McDougle and Jeremiah Johnson all traveled to Winston-Salem and stayed with their same roommates to help promote normalcy. But losing playmakers in this fashion isn't normal. Each game seems to bring new painful memories, of players prone on the ground, trainers vigorously inspecting them and Coach Randy Edsall squeezing their hand for reassurance.
Against Florida State, Edsall missed his opportunity to address his players after quarterback C.J. Brown left with a concussion. But as Long was loaded onto a backboard, driven away by an ambulance bound for the emergency room, Edsall brought his players together.
"I had to get their mind right," he said. "Deon is a great kid and a really good player. When you see that, we hurt for Deon, but we still got to go play a game, try to win the game."
They didn't on Saturday. Not even close. As the Terps tried to explain a 34-point loss in a game they were favored by nearly a touchdown, Davis's eyes kept drifting down to the floor inside that ballroom. He had tried to rally his teammates during a kickoff after Long and Diggs both went down, even though he rarely talks on the field. And afterwards, Davis preached the message Maryland will adhere to all week and all season, something of which it has become painfully aware during another injury-plagued season.
"I'm ready to move on," he said. "Yeah. I'm ready to move on."
— One defeat, but many losses for Maryland.
— Long, Diggs out for the season.

Awards guidelines
Nominations for the 2016 National Disability Awards are now closed. Finalists announced for the 10th National Disability Awards
Aim of the Awards
The National Disability Strategy, 2010–2020 sets out a ten year plan for improving the lives of Australians with disability, their families and carers. Produced in partnership by the Commonwealth, State and Territory governments under the auspices of the Council of Australian Governments (COAG), the Strategy represents a shared vision for an inclusive Australian society that enables Australians with disability to fulfil their potential as equal citizens. Further information about the National Disability Strategy can be found on the DSS website.
The Australian Government has been celebrating International Day of People with Disability (IDPwD) since 2007. IDPwD is a United Nations sanctioned day that occurs annually on 3 December. It is unique among community awareness days, as it unites disability organisations, businesses, federal, state and local governments and the community. The day is a collaborative effort to celebrate and acknowledge the rights of people with disability to be active citizens. Both individuals and organisations across the country are encouraged to celebrate.
Celebrating IDPwD and the National Disability Awards (the Awards) each year provides an opportunity to ensure that the achievements and needs of Australians with disability, their families and carers remain visible.
The Awards are the Government's main celebration of IDPwD, aiming to honour and recognise the outstanding achievements of individuals, teams and organisations that have improved the lives of Australians with disability and contributed to increased recognition of equality and human rights for all Australians. This is the 10th year that the Awards have been held.
In 2016 Awards will be presented in the following eight categories:
- Lesley Hall Leadership Award
- Employer of the Year Award
- Excellence in Community Partnerships
- Excellence in Inclusive Community Design
- Excellence in Inclusive Service Delivery
- Excellence in Technology
- Excellence in Education And Training
- Excellence in Justice And Rights Protection
The Awards align closely with the key priority areas for action under the National Disability Strategy, including striving for more inclusive and accessible communities, and greater rights protection, economic security, and disability and mainstream support for all Australians with disability and strongly recognise that disability is more a reflection of societal barriers and discrimination, rather than a person's diagnosis.
The Awards strive to demonstrate and highlight best practice that can then be replicated nationally in improving mainstream responses from individuals, organisations, businesses and governments so that we are all encouraged to start thinking in terms of an inclusive, rights-based Australian community.
The winners will be announced at a ceremony in the Great Hall, Australian Parliament House, Canberra on 7 November 2016.
