Before leaving his desk on Monday, January 3 as Californian Governor, the actor cut the term for Esteban Nunez, son of Fabian Nunez.
Arnold Schwarzenegger has used his last day as California Governor to reduce the prison term handed to the son of U.S. politician Fabian Nunez. Esteban Nunez, 22, pleaded guilty last May to voluntary manslaughter and assault stemming from the fatal stabbing of student Luis Santos during a brawl near San Diego State University in 2008.
He was handed a 16-year sentence - but on Sunday, January 2 Schwarzenegger cut the term to seven years. The "Terminator" star described the sentence as "excessive" as Nunez didn't inflict the fatal stab wound, reports the Los Angeles Times. Schwarzenegger is leaving the Californian office on Monday, January 3.
He also commuted a sentence of a Riverside County woman convicted of first-degree murder for killing her former pimp. Sara Jessimy Kruzan was sentenced to life without parole in 1994. "Mr. Howard's death is tragic, and I do not discount the gravity of the offense," Schwarzenegger said in his commutation statement. "But given Ms. Kruzan's age at the time of the murder, and considering the significant abuse she suffered at his hands, I believe Ms. Kruzan's sentence is excessive."

Mormons in Pride: Washington, D.C.
June 7, 2014 @ 12:00 - 19:30
Come join us at Capital Pride 2014 in Washington, D.C. on Saturday, June 7! This year's theme is "Build Our Bright Future." If you didn't participate last year, just ask anyone who did what an awesome and moving experience it was, and you will want to join us this year!
Affirmation will have a booth at the festival, which will be on Pennsylvania Avenue between 7th and 3rd Streets from noon until 7 p.m. Find us with this map of the festival at the Pride website. The festival is free to the public, but donations to the organizers are welcome and invited. Be sure to come visit us there! For more information on our booth, or if you'd like to help out, contact James Brinton at 703-303-6712.
The official name of the group that will march in the parade is "LGBT Mormons, Families, and Friends Coalition." If you want to walk in the parade with us — and we encourage you to! — we'll be meeting at the staging area at 22nd and P Streets NW, Washington, DC by 3:30 p.m. The Google map below is of this staging area. If you want to come just to watch, check out this map of the parade route to find out where you'll be able to see us. The parade will start at 4:30 p.m. and last until the last group reaches the end of the parade route at about 7:30 p.m.
For more information about this contingent, and to share this event with your friends, visit this Facebook page for the group marching in Capital Pride. You can also contact James at his above number (in the paragraph about the Affirmation booth). For more information about Capital Pride in general, visit their website here.
Should I bring my kids? Yes! Explain to them that they will be seeing people who are celebrating their culture and history. It's a gay version of Pioneer Day with more big hair and less handcart. This is a golden teaching opportunity for you and your children to talk about how even though people are different, Heavenly Father loves us all, and we believe in that equality for all.
Will I see something weird? Yes! You'll be seeing a whole bunch of Mormons walking in a gay pride parade! You'll also see drag queens, some angels, grandmothers, marching bands, church groups, just about what you'd expect in a parade.
Will there be a social to meet the other participants? Yes! There will be a kid-friendly interfaith social after the parade, about two blocks from the end of the parade route. Join us there for yummy food and new friends!
If you are going to walk with us:
Last year, many of us wore church clothes, and we looked impressive. We want to look identifiably Mormon, but rest assured, no one will be turned away from contingent based on their sartorial choices. If you want to dress in a thematic outfit, go for it! Missionary? Mom? Joseph Smith? The judges are giving prizes to the contingent whose costumes best exemplify the parade theme. Decide for yourself what your bright Mormon future looks like.
Arrive at the staging area before 3:30 p.m. If you are bringing little ones, you can arrive as late as 4 p.m. We all need to be in line before 4 p.m.
Observe the fire lanes on the street within the staging area. Do not congregate in the fire lanes.
Bring water, snacks, and sunscreen. We will be near a concession, if you need something to drink or eat.
If you can make and bring a colorful sign with your sentiments about Mormonism and LGBT members, and unceasing love! that would be awesome.
Wear sensible shoes and maybe a sun hat. We're walking, rain or shine!
Use Capital Pride trash receptacles in the staging areas and along the parade route.
Restroom facilities will be available on 22nd St NW.
If you need assistance, look for a parade monitor, who will be wearing a colored cape.
The parade will covers about a 1-½ mile route.

20-year old centre-back Sam joined City on loan from then 1st Division Swindon Town during the closing months of the 1999/2000
season and played in the final ten games. Returned to the County Ground before being released in May 2001. Since then
has played for various Midlands sides, including Bromsgrove Rovers, Evesham United and Malvern Town.
Darren briefly surfaced at Twerton Park during December 1996. The centre-back featured against
Farnborough and Kidderminster in which City lost 1-4 and 0-6 respectively. Has subsequently played for Taunton Town, Gloucester
City and St Blazey.
Everton was one of a number of players released by Nuneaton Borough in 1987 after they were thrown out of the Conference
and he joined City, via a brief stay on the South Coast with Weymouth, in October. However, after just 10 games the former
Halifax Town player was released to join Barnet.
Despite trials with Bristol Rovers and Doncaster Rovers pacy wide player Alfie joined City on non-contract terms in September
2003. Immediately impressed although the 23-year old did have a tendancy to fade in and out of games. Had previously played
for a number of Midlands sides including Stafford Rangers where he played against City. Was released by new manager Gary
Owers just before Christmas 2003 due to his inability to train twice a week because of a college course he was on in
Birmingham. Surfaced again at Halesowen before joining Telford United in July 2004. Moved onto TNS in September 2005.
Reserve side player Mike made a single substitute appearance for the first team during the 1985-86 season.
Vastly experienced midfielder Darren made a single outing for City in January 2005. He had joined former teammate Gary Owers
on a temporary basis after being released by Peterborough United ahead of a move to the US. However, Havant made an offer that
City couldn't come close to matching and he joined the South Coast strugglers. He played for Tottenham, Watford, Reading,
Notts County and Bristol City in a long league career and was also part of the big-spending Hornchurch squad before they
went into financial meltdown.
Former Southampton trainee Andrew was signed on loan in the second half of the 1997/98 season. Only made a single appearance
at Sittingbourne where he was replaced at half-time with City 4-1 down! Was released by the Saints in July 1998 and went on to
play for Forest Green Rovers, Welton Rovers, Weston Super Mare and Chippenham Town.
Capable of playing up front or in defence Greg signed during the early part of the 1995-96 season. Made seven starts but
was one of the victims of City's shock FA Cup exit against Cinderford Town in October and was released. Has since played
for a number of Northern League sides and is currently with Rossendale United.
Former England schoolboy international Ricky spent five years with Bristol City, scoring 13 goals in 58 games, before being
signed by City in March 1983. Initially failed to win over the City fans but a move from up front to the right wing turned
around his form and he was a regular for the next three seasons. A tribunal decided fee of Ł4000 took him to Yeovil Town in
July 1986 when he moved to Torquay for work reasons. Was back at Twerton Park 20 months later but failed to recapture
his previous success and switched to Gloucester City in October 1988.
One of a number of 'interesting' signings made in the closing weeks of Alan Pridham's tenure as City boss, striker Graham made
a single substitute appearance for City in the 7-0 defeat at Worcester City in September 2003. Also made one reserve team
outing where he did score against Forest Green Rovers. Headed back to Western League Bridgwater Town from where he arrived.
Also played for Exeter City in the Conference, apparently.
Combative midfielder Paul had two spells with City during the nineties. First signed in July 1993 after he was released by
Bristol Rovers, where he had spent two years without making a first team appearance. Became a vital part of City's midfield for the next
three seasons before Ł15000 took him to Cheltenham Town. Only spent a season at Whadden Road before returning to City. Left
again at the end of that campaign for Worcester City. Has since played for Merthyr Tydfil, Gloucester City, Tiverton Town
and, currently, Yate.
Striker Eston was signed from Cinderford Town during the early part of the 1995-96 season and made 35 appearances during that
campaign scoring nine goals. Prior to his time at Twerton Park he had played in Europe with Ebbw Vale and turned out for
Inter Cardiff, Newport AFC and Ton Pentre. Was released in May 1996 and returned to Cinderford Town. Has since had spells
with Evesham United, Weston Super Mare and Merthyr Tydfil. Currently with League of Wales side Haverfordwest County.
Reserve midfielder Mark spent just over a season at Twerton Park after signing from Radstock Town in July 1986, making just
three substitutes outings for the first team.
Goalkeeper Alan arrived in September 1990 having been released by Cheltenham Town the previous summer. Initially signed as
cover for first choice stopper Jim Preston, he soon made the no.1 shirt (which was a ghastly pink colour back then) his own.
This remained the case until the end of the 1991-2 season when a dislocated shoulder and the return of Dave Mogg saw him
head back to Cheltenham. Has since played for Trowbridge Town, Clevedon Town and Highworth having begun his career with
Swindon Town.
Christchurch born defender Billy joined City on loan from then tenants Bristol Rovers in February 1991. He made just three appearances
before an injury crisis for the Pirates hastened his recall. Nearly returned to the Romans in January 1993 only for Bristol
Rovers to pull out of the loan deal at the last moment. Played over 250 games for Rovers before spending time at Exeter City,
Forest Green Rovers, Newport County and Weston Super Mare. Now with Clevedon Town in a player coach capacity.
A former student at the FA's Centre of Excellence and YTS trainee with Arsenal midfielder Steve joined City at the start of
the 1994-95 season after impressing in pre-season. Spent a season with Hereford United after being released by the Gunners
but only made two substitute appearances for City before heading to Hong Kong to try his luck. Currently playing for the
West Midlands Police Force team.
A mid-season loan signing from Forest Green Rovers midfielder Ben failed to make any real impact at Twerton Park. Made 13
appearances, three from the bench, before being shipped back to the Lawn. He is the elder brother of former City striker
Danny and also played for Bristol City and Cheltenham Town. Was released by Forest Green at the end of the 2004-05 season
whereupon he joined his brother at Paulton.
Popular striker Danny burst onto the Twerton Park scene toward the end of the 2001-02 season by scoring the winning goal on
his debut against Welling United. He was signed from Bitton in December 2001 having been on the books of Bristol Rovers as
a trainee. Five goals in his first nine reserve team matches soon saw the 20-year old promoted to the first team. Went onto
make over 80 appearances, although nealy half were as substitute, scoring 13 goals including a stunning strike against Yeovil
Town in the FA Cup. Finding his first team chances increasingly limited he switched to Western League Paulton Rovers in March 2004.
18-year old defender Jay was formally a trainee with West Bromwich Albion before joining City in the summer of 1996 among
a number of new signings made by Steve Millard. Made his debut at Northwich Victoria in the opening game of that season but
only went on to make six more appearances. Made a single substitute outing the following season before being transferred to
Larkhall Athletic in exchange for Matthew Walker in October.
Striker Wayne was a regular scorer for City's reserve side during the 2000/01 and 2001/02 seasons but only made three first
team starts in minor cup competitions during the first of those campaigns. Went onto play for Highworth and Swindon Supermarine
after he left City.
Right-back Mark spent most of his career with Swansea City, making over 100 appearances for the Welsh side before a series
of injuries forced him to retire from the professional game and he joined City in the summer of 1999. Only missed a handful of games
during his first season at Twerton Park however further injury problems interupted the next campaign and he was released in
May 2001. Went on to join Clevedon Town.
Bath born cente-forward Graham joined City in the latter the stages of the 1996/97 season and scored 7 goals in just 13
appearances. The following campaign saw him notch another 22 goals as he became a firm fans favourite. Never quite reached
these heights again and a serious knee injury in December 1998 sidelined him for eight months. Decided to leave City at the
end of the 2000/01 season and returned to Paulton Rovers where he started his career. Now with Stoke St Michael.
Originally with City at the end of the 1998/99 season under Paul Bodin former Yeovil Town midfielder Lee made just one
appearance due to a back injury. Joined pre-season training that summer but failed to earn a contract and ended up at
Larkhall Athletic and Chippenham Town. Returned to Twerton Park in November 2001 for a slightly more successful spell.
Joined Paulton Rovers in the summer of 2005.
Something of a mystery player Joe was rumoured to have signed for City at the start of the 2001/02 season but never made
an appearance due to his army committments. Turned out for Ryman League Division 3 side Wokingham Town during that season
before finally returning to City for the closing month of the season where he played in three of the final four matches.
Left-sided midfielder Jamie was a loan signing from Conference side Stevenage Borough during the second half of the 2003-04
season. Undoubtedly talented, his goal at Hinckley United was among City's best that season, although he only
really showed occasional glimpses of this ability. Initially looked to be heading back to Broadhall Way after one month but a late change
of mind saw him stay at Twerton Park for nearly three months. Joined Maidenhead United in August 2004 when he was released
by Borough. Moved onto Witney Town in September 2005.
A loan signing from Basingstoke Town in February 2002 Rob made 8 outings before being recalled to the Ryman League side
to cover an injury crisis. Has subsquently turned out for Forest Green Rovers and Chippenham Town.
One of a number of disappointing loan strikers that have briefly come and gone at Twerton Park in recent years. Luke arrived
having scored regularly while on loan at Weston Super Mare, Chelmsford City and Hednesford Town, and got off to a perfect
start with a 40-yard goal on his debut against Team Bath. This was a false dawn though as he struggled to make any impact in
sunsequent games and returned to Cheltenham after two months at City. Joined Mangotsfield United in August 2005.
In his short time with City tough tackling midfielder Mitch became a firm fans favourite. In just sixteen appearances following
his switch from fellow Dr Martens League side Worcester City he managed to get sent off twice and score one of the goals of
the season against Stafford Rangers. The 21-year old also played for Cirencester Academy and Bishops Cleeve before joining
Worcester. Was released in somewhat mysterious circumstances in January 2004. A hand injury, sustained in a fall on some ice,
had kept him out of action and before he could return he had left due to 'personal reasons'.
Midfielder Rob signed for City as a teenager in the 1989 close season following his release by Bristol City and became one
of the clubs most consistent performers for the next seven seasons. Only missed a handful of games during this time and was
named player of the year in 1995-96. Joined Yeovil Town in July 1996 as part of a joint deal with Jerry Gill and spent four
successful seasons with the Glovers, where he won three England non-league caps, before moving onto Forest Green Rovers in
June 2000. Rob, whose grandfather Ken kept goal for City in the 1940's, now plays for Mangotsfield United having
surprisingly been released by Tiverton Town in May 2005, having spent three seasons at Ladymead.
Signed toward the end of the 1999-2000 season from Gloucester City pacy winger Jimmy never really showed the talents that
had seen him so highly rated at the Tigers. Returned to Meadow Park after his short spell with City where, apart from a season
with Weston Super Mare, he has remained until the summer of 2005. Rumours of an interest from City have surfaced from time to time and the 23-year
old has also turned down several offers from league clubs.
A 1987 close season signing from Clevedon Town centre-back David's debut was delayed until a week into the season whilst
the club obtained international clearance for a single game he played in Cyprus the previous year. Once available the former
Yeovil Town player was soon a consistent performer and, despite missing over a third of the season through injury and
suspension, was named captain and won player of the year. A dispute over travelling expenses preceeded the 1988-89 season and
after just three more outings he was transferred to Cheltenham Town for Ł1000.
Midfielder Jamie followed new manager Alan Pridham from Paulton Rovers when he arrived in the 2001 close season. Played in the
first two games of the season but injury then restricted his availablity and he was transferred to Western League Weston St John's
in March the following year. Also played for Clevedon Town and Weston Super Mare in the Dr Martens League.
Experienced winger Alan was signed by Bobby Jones during the 1986 close season following his release from fourth division
Exeter City. The 32-year old had scored over 100 goals in a career that began at Rotherham before moving onto Chesterfield
and Bristol City. Played 42 games for City but scored just seven goals and was released at the end of that season, despite
having another year to run on his contract, to become manager at Bristol Manor Farm.
Scottish midfielder Gerry joined City in January 1987 after moving to the Bristol area for work reasons. Began his career
as a trainee with Celtic, making a handful of reserve team starts, before playing for Queens Park and St Johnstone. Struggled
to make an impact at Twerton Park and was released at the end of the season. Now assistant manager with reformed ex-Scottish
League side Clydebank in the Stagecoach Central District League Division 1.
A mid-season loan signing from Plymouth Argyle stiker Marcus made an immediate impact at City, scoring in his first
three games for the club. Failed to keep up this record and returned to Home Park at the end of the month deal. Was released
by Plymouth at the end of that season and went on to play for St Blazey then Plymouth Parkway in the South Western League.
Experienced midfielder Brian made a single appearance for City having joined from Queens Park Rangers in September 1995.
Joined Southport after his brief Twerton Park stop and has since played for Stockport County and Chester City. Is currently
Football in the Community Officer with Macclesfield Town.
Very experienced defender Steve joined City in October 1996 and made a dozen appearances in the black and white stripes. A
long professional career preceeded his short period with City including spells with Shrewsbury Town and Derby County, plus
a time as assistant manager at Bristol Rovers.
Central defender Richard had three spells with City having first signed in June 1984 from Frome Town. Made 65
outings before joining Forest Green Rovers in November 1985. Moved onto Cheltenham Town before George Rooney brought him back from the Robins in
the summer of 1990 and he went onto form one of City's best recent defensive pairings alongside Chris Banks. A regular
goalscorer Richard was the side's top scorer in 1992-93 when he was also named player of the season. Released at the end of
the 1993-94 season he joined Gloucester City only to return seven months later. Was named as assistant manager the next
season before finally leaving for good in May 1997. Until recently was assistant manager with Western League Brislington.
Teenage full-back Jack made four starting appearances for the first team during the 1999/2000 season, three in Dr Martens Cup
ties and one in the Somerset Premier Cup. He had made his debut against Bishop Sutton the previous season
as a half time substitute in the local cup game. Now playing for Corsham Town in the Western League.
Mark was one of three former Nuneaton Borough players signed during the early stages of the 1987-88 season following the
Midlands club's expulsion from the Conference due to ground defects. The striker's stay at Twerton Park was a brief one
though, as after just nine outings and a single goal he was released to join Telford United. Went on to play for Telford at
Wembley in the 1987 FA Trophy Final but tragically died while playing local league football in the early 1990's.

CHARLOTTE - Oct. 16, 2013 - The College of Health and Human Services Department of Social Work is co-sponsoring the one-day conference "Boots to Books: Understanding Military Culture and Supporting a Successful Transition" on Monday, Nov. 18, in Cone University Center, McKnight Hall.
A free event, the conference will bring together experts on veteran's issues, as well as, faculty, staff, students, service providers and the public, to learn about the unique perspectives of student veterans. Organizers also seek to identify resources to support student veterans' success at UNC Charlotte and their transition to civilian life.
David Vacchi, a national leader in the study of and advocacy for the success of student veterans, will be a keynote speaker at the conference. A U.S. Army veteran with more than 20 years of active duty service, Vacchi is working toward a doctorate at the University of Massachusettes-Amherst.
"Student veterans are a unique type of nontraditional student, due to immersion in and socialization to the military culture," said Vacchi. "The transition back to civilian life can be challenging, particularly in a higher education context that is relatively unstructured and to some extent undisciplined, compared with military organizations. Understanding student veterans and their unique experiences can help higher education faculty and staff to support the success of this burgeoning student population."
Paul Passaro, program director with Charlotte Bridge Home, will be a keynote speaker, too. Charlotte Bridge Home helps Charlotte veterans successfully transition home after military service by identifying their education, employment and health care needs. The organization also connects them to available community, state and federal resources. Passaro is a West Point graduate and a veteran of the U.S. Army.
"Boots to Books" will feature a student panel discussion and opportunities to interact with all speakers. Attendees will have the opportunity to visit the "support services" vendor fair and view an art exhibit featuring the work of Robert Bates, a veteran and UNC Charlotte student.
The UNC Charlotte Office of Veterans Student Services, Mecklenburg County Community Support Services and Charlotte Bridge Home are cosponsoring this free conference, which is being supported by a grant from the Chancellor's Diversity Challenge Fund. Prospective attendees are encouraged to register online.

Shelley Saxena was a product manager at IBM, managing a multi-million dollar product portfolio when he decided to quit and co-found Saasmob, a mobile technology company in 2009. Saasmob provided advisory services through mobile applications to farmers in the United States, via the University of Tennessee and University of Georgia. Shelley, who is originally from Lucknow, had studied engineering at IIT Roorkee, and went on to get an MBA from Cornell University.
Shelley wanted to replicate the Saasmob model in India, but due to high illiteracy rates and low penetration of data-capable smartphones in their target audience, they had to deploy field teams. This meant an increase in costs that was unrelated to the original model. In order to cover the cost of these teams, they did some market research on services that users would be willing to pay a monthly subscription for. Healthcare emerged as a service that 80 per cent were willing to pay for. The epiphany lead them to start a healthcare and advisory service, and slowly after gauging the potential, they started to double-down on the healthcare space, concentrating majority of their efforts there.
The result? The launch of Sevamob in 2011 to leverage technology to deliver healthcare services more efficiently to customers from the bottom of the pyramid.
The problem and the solution:
India lags behind on most indicators linked to health. The average life expectancy is 66 years, and ranks at a lowly 127th position out of 180 countries. On indicators like infant mortality, child malnutrition and maternal mortality, it fares worse than some Sub-Saharan African countries. It has one hospital bed for 879 individuals versus World Health Organisation recommendation of 1.9 beds per 1,000 population.
The Indian government spends just 4 per cent of the GDP on healthcare, leading to most of the expenditure or 61 per cent coming out of the individual's pocket. There is even greater disparity in low-income communities, where there is limited access to primary healthcare. In rural areas and smaller cities, the main source of primary care is government-run primary healthcare centers. In many areas, these are understaffed and over-crowded and often have touts who act as commissioned agents of city-based service providers.
Sevamob provides primary healthcare services in tier two, three and four cities via mobile clinics as well as a tele-health marketplace. Their target audience includes students, employees or groups whose monthly family income is between Rs 5,000 to Rs 25,000. In some areas that SevaMob serves, there are no registered doctors in a 10 km radius.
But just having a service that is affordable is not enough. Sevamob's target audience have limited awareness about the need for regular primary care. Even though early interventions can help avoid, contain and even cure diseases, people often visit a doctor when something drastic happens. Shelley believes that this is a key reason why average life expectancy in India is 66 years versus 78-80 years in developed economies. He hopes that Sevamob can play a small role in increasing awareness and improve healthcare indicators in the long term.
Sevamob subscription-based payment model:
Sevamob's mobile clinics provide basic primary care, medicines for common ailments and prescriptions on groups' premises. More advanced care is provided by a 24×7 call center and back-office appointments.
For catastrophic care, Sevamob bundles cashless hospitalization benefits and accident insurance. The basic subscription plan, which includes home-based primary care and accident insurance costs Rs. 100 a month. For an additional Rs. 50 every month, the premium plan includes insurance of up to Rs. 30,000 to cover in-patient care.
In January this year, they started a tele-health marketplace that enables patients to get video consultations, second opinions and in-clinic appointments from participating healthcare providers. This reduces the need for a patient to travel to a large hospital to get a diagnosis.
Sevamob's low-cost healthcare delivery model works on a hub-and-spoke model with appropriate skill-set matched at each touch-point.
Sevamob's success and challenges:
At present, they service in excess of 5,000 subscribers in Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka and the National Capital Region. They have also expanded overseas and replicated the model in Liberia.
"Each satisfied customer testimonial, every new launch, every award, each funding round brings us lots of smiles. On the other hand, making sure that we serve our customers with a high quality of service and at the same time deploy investors' money wisely keeps us up at night," says Shelley.
But like most startups that are trying to grow, they have their fair set of hiccups. Major challenges include obtaining capital for expansion and maintaining a high quality of service as they grow rapidly. "For the former, we are blessed with very entrepreneur friendly social impact investors. For the latter, we use specific rotations and protocols, technology and the call center to maintain and track quality of care," explains Shelley.
Sevamob also did a small pivot. After initially serving only rural customers, Sevamob tweaked its model and spread to urban areas after they were not able to achieve a sustainable patients per doctor per day ratio. Switching to a group model of subscription in Tier 2,3 and 4 cities, but keeping the target income-segment (Rs. 5,000 to Rs. 25,000 monthly) the same, has worked better for Sevamob.
Future big goal:
"Within five years, our target is for more than 1 million mobile clinic subscribers and 37.5 million marketplace users. We also want to replicate the model in additional geographies via licensees," predicts Shelley.

The Voice of Children and Youth at the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia
Participation of children and youth in democratic processes
Participation of children and youth in democratic processes
The United Nations have, over the years, developed a strong cooperation with the National Assembly. UNDP supports the work of a number of poverty reduction-related standing committees with the aim of strengthening the legislative and oversight functions, while UNICEF supports the work of the Assembly so that it makes a quality contribution to the achievement of the rights the child.
An open dialogue between children and youth from Kraljevo, Kragujevac, Pirot, Prokuplje and Becej, and the national deputies was chaired by the Parliament Speaker and Chairwoman of the Parliamentary Working Group on the Rights of the Child, Mrs. Slavica Djukic-Dejanovic. UNICEF's Area Representative, Mrs. Judita Reichenberg, played an active role in this dialogue where children were given the opportunity to highlight what they perceived as the most important issues related to the achievement of their rights.
"The Parliamentary Working Group on the Rights of the Child is, just like you, a part of a team that is advocating and actively working on creating in each town and each municipality a non-violent and encouraging environment – an environment fit for each child and each young person – in which everybody, without any difference and exceptions will be able to exercise their rights. This is one of the reasons why this Working Group must be institutionalized and thus regulated by the upcoming Law on the National Assembly and the new parliamentary Rules of Procedure," said Parliamentary Speaker, Djukic-Dejanovic while addressing the children.
During this open dialogue between the children and the deputies, it was pointed out that active participation of children and youth in all segments of decision-making that impact on their lives is of essential importance for the further shaping of our democratic culture in a way that responds to children's wellbeing.
"The right of each child to be listened to and taken seriously represents one of the strategic principles of the Convention on the Rights of the Child. It is essentially linked with democratic values – the democratic concept of family, school, local community and the society at large. By fighting for more space for children, adults themselves learns to accept children as full-fledged partners in the building of a democratic community," UNICEF Area Representative Judita Reichenberg pointed out.
"This is my place – my place is here" is the name of the advocacy action implemented by the youth and children from the Prokuplje Local Plan of Action team: "While we were advocating for children and youth to have their space for play and sports, we managed to raise the awareness of youth that they can make change, particularly when cooperating with adults. This is why we are not asking for your assistance here today, but for your cooperation," Aleksandra Djordjevic from Prokuplje said to the deputies.

(6th SESSION, BUDAPEST 30 AND 31 MAY 2005)
Margaret Killerby, Head of the Department of Crime Problems, DG1, Council of Europe
1. Mr President of the Republic, Mr President of the Supreme Court, Mr Vice President of the Parliament, Ministers for Foreign Affairs and Justice, Prosecutor General and Deputy Prosecutor General, Head of the National Police, Prosecutors General of European States, ladies and gentlemen : On behalf of the Council of Europe may I thank you Mr President and the Prosecutor General not only for the kind invitation to hold this session of the Conference of Prosecutors General of Europe in your delightful country but also for your warm welcome in the Chamber of this beautiful historical Parliament building.
2. Fifteen years ago1 Mr President your country was the first of the new member States from Central and Eastern Europe to become a member State of the Council of Europe. In 1995 a second European Youth Centre, similar to the one in Strasbourg, was established in Budapest. Now, following the many changes which have taken place, your country is a member of the European Union.
3. We all welcome very much your recognition of the importance of the role of the public prosecutor and it is of course very appropriate to discuss international co-operation in a country which has 7 neighbouring countries.
4. It was in 2000, on the occasion of the finalisation of the Recommendation on the public prosecution,2 that high level prosecutors were invited to a Conference in Strasbourg.3 Following the success of this Conference and the need expressed by prosecutors, yearly Conferences have been organised to discuss the development of the prosecution services in particular in relation to the principles contained in the Recommendation. It is clear that, in order to be effective, these principles must be well-known, accepted and properly followed by all concerned. Although the European Committee on Crime Problems (CDPC) did not consider it necessary to attach a monitoring mechanism to the Recommendation, it encouraged you to continue your constructive work on the implementation of the Recommendation.
5. The main theme of this Conference is the relationship between public prosecutors and the police. A specific chapter in the Recommendation deals with this matter and, as Professor Tak has indicated in his report on this theme, in general « European legal systems empower the prosecutor to scrutinise the lawfulness of police investigations, as well as to monitor the observance of human rights by police. » The new Council for Police Matters (PC-PM), which is represented at your Conference, is considering questions relating to the implementation of the European Code of Police ethics and the results of your discussions will of course be useful for its work.
6. Tomorrow the Conference will consider the competencies of public prosecutors outside the criminal field. This is particularly important as, although prosecutors in some counties do have such additional tasks, they are not covered by the Recommendation. Therefore it may be necessary to prepare additional provisions to cover these cases.
7. The Conference will also consider tomorrow guidelines on ethics and conduct for public prosecutors. The Recommendation invites States to ensure that, in carrying out their duties, public prosecutors are bound by "codes of conduct." Therefore draft European guidelines for public prosecutors on ethics and conduct have been prepared for consideration and adoption. These Guidelines, which contain widely accepted general principles for use at a national level, could possibly be used at a later stage as a basis for a Recommendation. The draft includes a provision that prosecutors should further international co-operation to the largest extent possible.
8. Although the Conferences of Prosecutors General of Europe are young, having only begun in 2000, they have rapidly grown into an important part of the work of the Council of Europe. The continuation and success of this work are assured and we are grateful to our States for the kind invitations to host Conferences which have been made in the past and for the future. As regards future Conferences the next Conferences will take place in 2006 in the Russian Federation and Ireland has also indicated that it would like to host a Conference.
9. I shall now give you some brief information about some of the main Council of Europe events which have taken place since your last Conference and which may be of interest to public prosecutors.
10. As regards new Conventions the following three Council of Europe Conventions were opened to signature during the recent Summit and deal with:
a. the prevention of terrorism4;
b. the laundering, search, seizure and confiscation of the proceeds from crime and on the financing of terrorism;5
c. action against trafficking in human beings.6
11. In addition the Convention on cybercrime7 was opened to signature in Budapest and came into force on 1 July 2004 and already applies between 10 States including Hungary. The Convention has also been signed by over 30 States and, if your State has not ratified, I should like to underline the importance of doing so as soon as possible. This is the first international treaty on crimes committed via the Internet and other computer networks and its Protocol extends the Convention's scope to offences of racist or xenophobic propaganda.
12. Two new Recommendations were adopted by the Committee of Ministers last month and these Recommendations deal with:
a. the protection of witnesses and collaborators of justice;8
b. special investigation techniques in relation to serious crimes including acts of terrorism.9
13. Earlier this year the European Commission for the efficiency of justice (CEPEJ) published comparative data on the European judicial systems. The Chapter on public prosecutors contains useful information concerning budgets, numbers of prosecutors and salaries, disciplinary proceedings, case load and percentage of convictions and acquittals in cases brought by public prosecutors.
14. Increased recognition is being given by all our States to the need to take greater account of the interests of victims and of course public prosecutors have an essential role in this matter. A new Group of Specialists on the assistance to victims and the prevention of victimisation (PC-S-AV) has started its work. After considering assistance to the victims of terrorism it will focus on the wider aspects of assistance to victims in general and update the existing Recommendation on this subject.
15. A number of important meetings have taken place this year such as the Third High-Level multilateral meeting of the Ministries of the Interior,10 the 26th Conference of the European Ministers of Justice11, the Third Summit of Heads of State and Government of the Council of Europe and the European Committee on Crime Problems (CDPC).
16. The Third Summit was held earlier this month12 in Warsaw and a Declaration and Action Plan were adopted. In addition a Committee of Wise Persons has been instructed to make proposals to ensure the long term effectiveness of the European Court of Human Rights taking into account the initial effets of Protocol 14 of the European Convention on Human Rights.
17. The European Committee on Crime Problems (CDPC) held its meeting in Strasbourg earlier this year13 and finalised the moneylaundering Convention and the two Recommendations dealing with witnesses and special investigation techniques. It also elected a new Chair - Claude Debrulle - who is attending this Conference on behalf of the CDPC. The CDPC is currently finalising the European Prison Rules and will, at a later stage, consider the question of a European Prison Charter.
18. The CDPC underlined the essential role of the public prosecutor in the criminal justice system of a democratic society and recalled the growing importance of your activities. After taking into account the Conclusions of your Conferences, the CDPC invited the Committee of Ministers to set up a Consultative Council of European Prosecutors (CCPE) as an advisory body to the Committee of Ministers to be assisted by a Bureau of 11 members appointed by the CCPE.14
19. The proposed tasks of the CCPE are:
a. the preparation of a framework overall action plan;
b. the preparation of opinions following a request from the Committee of Ministers, the CDPC or any other Council of Europe body;
c. the preparation of opinions for the attention of the CDPC on difficulties concerning the implementation of the Recommendation on public prosecution;
d. the collection of information about the functioning of prosecution services in Europe;
e. and last but not least the organisation of Conferences.
20. The proposal to set up a Consultative Council of European Prosecutors is now before the Committee of Ministers and it is likely that there will be a favourable response at an early date.
21. In conclusion I should like to underline that the strengthening of the role of the public prosecutor is extremely important for us all. Therefore this Conference and your future work will provide invaluable assistance to the European States in strengthening this role both at a national and at a European level.
1 16 November 1990
2 See Recommendation Rec (2000)19 on the role of the public prosecution in the criminal justice system
3 The Recommendation contains a specific chapter on international co-operation between prosecutors and this chapter in particular refers to:
- the desirability of direct contacts between public prosecutors of different countries;
- steps which may be taken to further direct contacts (including regular meetings between prosecutors general and the preparation of lists of contact persons);
- promoting the awareness of the need for active participation in international co-operation;
- promoting the specialisation of some public prosecutors in the field of international co-operation;
- improving the system concerning requests for mutual assistance.
4 This Convention is designed to help States prevent terrorism and to reinforce international co-operation concerning prevention. It makes acts of public provocation to commit a terrorist act and recruitment or training for terrorism which may lead to the commission of a criminal offence criminal offences. Co-operation is to be strengthened and the protection and compensation of victims of terrorism improved. There is a duty to investigate for the purpose of prosecution or extradition.
5 This Convention, which deals with the prevention and control of moneylaundering, updates and extends the 1990 moneylaundering Convention and covers the financing of terrorism.
6 This Convention prevents and combats trafficking, deals with victim protection and contains an independent monitoring mechanism: the Group of experts on action against trafficking in human beings GRETA.
7 The Convention aims at pursuing a common criminal policy to protect society against cybercrime. It deals particularly with infringements of copyright, computer-related fraud, child ponography and violations of network security. It also contains a series of powers and procedures such as the search of computer networks and interception.
8 Recommendation Rec (2005)9 ensures that witnesses and collaborators of justice may testify freely and without being subject to any act of intimidation. The question of judicial co-operation and the protection of witnesses and collaborators of justice will now be considered by the Committee of experts on the operation of European Conventions in the penal field (PC-OC) in the light of Article 23 (which deals with witness protection) of the Second Protocol to the European Convention on mutual assistance in criminal matters.
9 Recommendation Rec (2005) 10 contains guidance for the use of such techniques.
10 Warsaw, 17 and 18 March 2005
11 This Conference took place in Helsinki on 7 and 8 April 2005. The European Ministers adopted a number of Resolutions and, for example, agreed on the importance of promoting the restorative justice approach in their criminal justice systems (Resolution No 2 on the social mission of the criminal justice system – restorative justice), resolved to pursue their efforts to reinforce the fight against terrorism and so increase the security of citizens (Resolution No 3 on combating terrorism) and noted the evolution of transborder criminality (Resolution No 5 on the functioning of Council of Europe Conventions on judicial co-operation in criminal matters).
12 16 and 17 May 2005
13 7 to 11 March 2005
14 The CCPE will work in particular with the CDPC and the Consultative Council of European Judges (CCJE) and will have a sufficient institutional link with the CDPC.

Summit Indoor Air Quality
Most Summit homeowners are unaware of the air pollution circulating throughout their homes. Our rooms are most polluted places in Summit, however, because of all the small particles of dust, dirt, pollen and bacteria being circulated through the Summit HVAC systems we depend on to provide us with indoor comfort.
This air pollution can increase allergy symptoms, and may even trigger some respiratory diseases. While it is good to focus on the pollution of Summit outside our homes, we need to ensure the inside of our homes are also protected and providing our families with clean air to breath. Summit indoor air quality products and services such as air filters, air purifiers, air cleaners and routine air duct and vent cleaning can help us control the air pollution in our Summit homes. HEPA air filters are widely used in various residential and commercial applications such as air conditioning, heating and other ventilating systems. These air filters are designed in such a way so that our Summit HVAC systems provide us with clean, healthy air to breathe.
Another good Summit indoor air quality investment is a whole house air cleaner. Standard Heating & Cooling provides quality whole house air cleaners and purification systems that are installed to your heating and air conditioning system to provide clean air to your home.

Simonstown and Boulders Beach
Penguins © darkroomillusions
Simonstown, South Africa's principal naval base, lies about 25 miles (40km) from the city centre and is a quaint town cum suburb built around a naval dockyard, with well-preserved Victorian buildings, museums, sidewalk cafes and local legends to learn about. One such legend is about a dog called 'Just Nuisance' who 'joined' the British navy, becoming their mascot, when Simonstown was a British base. A statue of the beloved dog can still be seen on the beachfront. A short distance from the town is Boulder's beach, famous for its protected colony of African Penguins (formerly called Jackass Penguin) that can be viewed from the boardwalks and which mingle happily with people on the beach. The penguins are remarkably tame and although you shouldn't try to touch them (they are ultimately wild animals and can give nasty bites) it is possible to get very close and take some wonderful photographs. The loveable birds swim between swimmers in the sea, totally unperturbed. The beach is truly beautiful at Boulders, with turquoise water and, as the name suggests, picturesque rock formations. The water is cold but so alluring that it is hard not to get in. The beach is worth visiting in any season just to see the penguins, and kids will particularly enjoy it.

Join as a member. There's a certificate with your name on it.
Last updated 26 April 2016. Created on 5 January 2008.
Edited by madan879, drupalshrek, fullerja, LeeHunter. Log in to edit this page.
Main topic described: Permissions
Drupal hook described: hook_perm
The main module file
The main module file will be called [your_module_name].module. It is important that it has that name, since that is what Drupal will look for. If you just call it something like [your_module_name].php then Drupal will not find it as and treat it as a module. The [your_module_name].module file will contain the heart of your module code, including the permissions code which we describe on the rest of this page. Your module will therefore always begin with the following 2 files:
- [your_module_name].info
- [your_module_name].module
Defining permissions
The next function to write is the permissions function, implementing Drupal's
hook_perm(). This is where you will define the names of the permissions of your module -- it doesn't grant permission or define what the permissions mean, it just specifies what permissions are available for this module. As with the help hook from the previous tutorial page, we implement
hook_perm() by creating a function called
onthisdate_perm() in the onthisdate.module file. This function just needs to return a list of the permission names this module will use; once you have defined permissions in the
hook_perm() implementation in a module, an administrator can define which roles have those permissions on the Administer » User management » Permissions page.
For example, in order to create a single permission called "access onthisdate content", we would create the following function:
* Valid permissions for this module
* @return array An array of valid permissions for the onthisdate module
function onthisdate_perm() {
return array('access onthisdate content');
} // function onthisdate_perm()
(Note for beginners: the opening <?php will only appear once in your module file, at the beginning, and the closing ?> will not appear in your file at all.)
If you are going to write a module that needs to have finer control over the permissions, you can expand this permission set. For example:
return array('access onthisdate content', 'administer onthisdate');
For this tutorial, start with just the one permission. We'll later expand to using additional permissions.
Your permission strings are arbitrary, but each must be unique among all installed modules. Otherwise, one occurrence of the name will take the permissions of the other. For that reason, the permission strings should each usually contain your module name, since this help avoid name space conflicts with other modules. The suggested naming convention for permissions is "action_verb modulename". Use the following example as a template for any module you may be developing:
function newmodule_perm() {
return array('access newmodule', 'create newmodule', 'administer newmodule');
} // function newmodule_perm
See Also
Looking for support? Visit the Drupal.org forums, or join #drupal-support in IRC.
Can I skip this?
I just want my module open to all, whenever it's enabled.
Do I have to add a perm function?
No, you don't have to have a
No, you don't have to have a perm function. It specifies permissions that you then have to check in your module logic if you want to allow/disallow certain things based on them.

Taman Negara
Taman Negara is the oldest and largest National park in Malaysia I believe. It is about 4 hours north of KL.
Now, I contemplated getting a car and driver for this trip as I did not want to park a hire car up in the carpark just sitting there for 3 or 4 days. Prices for a car and driver were around 550mr and I figured that was kinda ridiculous for a 4 hour trip. One taxi dude came down to 450mr and then called back and asked what I was happy to pay. But by then we had made other arrangements.
We decided to hire a car and drive myself for 120mr a day plus fuel obviously.
Departing Sunway Lagoon I made sure I got a map with the car and directions from the concierge and the car rental dude.
Car rental dude sat down with the map and I asked where was TN .he said oh so sorry sir I cannot read a map .so off to the concierge. He diligently called the hotel we had booked in TN and got specific directions, then gave us a small printed map of the local roads leading out of Sunway to the highway we needed to get on and follow.
His map consisted of very specific directions, 4 U turns or so and follow this etc and you will get to this toll gate and just go through and follow it.
No problem, we followed the map, got to the toll gate and thought hoorah .easy peasy.
About 30 minutes into it I could not see one sign with familiar names in the direction we should be going. Hit another tollway and asked the girl if this was the way to TN oh no sir you need to do U turn and go back that way.
Meanwhile, in the rear my daughter of 3yo is yelling I need to do pooh and my 6yo son yelling daddy your daughter just shit in her pants .how are you supposed to navigate a strange country under such pressures.
So how the fcuk we ended up all arsed up I have no idea, I figure the fcukin concierge had the map upside down when drawing on it.
Filling up with petrol, we stopped at the pump, self serve here, bugger .get out and stick the hose in, I have not done this for 6 years, so wondered what the go was when nothing comes out .looked at the gun, pushed all the buttons on the bowser, looked into the hose, put it back in, back out. Decided pump bloken so drove to other pump, same same, hose in, hose out, punch buttons.
Finally little Indian chap sauntered over and says sorry sir oh my goodness you have to go pay deposit first .I say deposit for what .deposit for gas sir fcuk me ok so I go pay deposit and go back and pump and go back and pay and go back and get in the car and we is off.
The rental car dude was also 2 and a half hours late delivering the car, so a leisurely trip up there turned into hell, rushing to get the boat across the river before dark and getting lost another 2 times, turned a 4 hour trip into 6 hours and me being pissed orf to the max. Combined with not being able to drive to fast as this car did not have rear seat belts for the kids, I nearly did not go simply because of this, against better judgement I decided to go and just try to be extra careful.
Best thing was there was not one hero pickup driver on the road, you know the cnuts here that speed up behind you flashing their lights to get by even when there is traffic on your left. I love doing that here. Very good drivers, much much better than Los.
To get to Taman Negara you used to have to go to a pier down river and get a boat up to the resorts as there was no road, but now there is a road to an area opposite the resorts and you can just get a short ferry ride across the river. We opted for this, however you can still do the river trip and I would highly recommend it, although it is 2 hours long.
The resort we stayed at was at the park headquarters, apparently the nicest one there and would want to be for the price, 580mr from memory for a family bungalow with 4 beds. While the resort was located in a great area, the actual resort is not so flash, nice and comfortable, but I have had much better bungalows in Los in the national parks for between 800b and 2500b, so it is relatively expensive.
This is the resort....clouded in early mist but...
The highlight of the park is the elevated suspension walkway amongst the tree tops of the rainforest, it is about 30/40 meters above the ground and runs for approximately 5/600 meters throughout the tree tops. Very nice experience.
View from the top down the river...
Lucky there is a net here, bit wonky on the legs...
Missus got 'air' sick walking on the wonky walkway...luckily below was only birds, elephant poo, bugs, lizards and the odd yank that she chundered on...
The canoe back down the river to the resort....
It was actually very nice to wake up to the peace and quiet of the rainforest jungle ..but then at 6.15am the mosque over the river blurted out the call to prayer .luckily it only lasted a few minutes and that time of the morning is the best time of the day. I looked at the clock and thought thank fcuk I can go back to sleep for a coupla hours.
Big leaves in the jungle...
Now, the call to prayer . I used to live in Sathorn near a mosque and we got the call to prayer headache everytime and it was that sad fcuking shrieking shit that annoys over a tinny loud speaker. This CTP at TN was actually very pleasant, never heard it before and the guys voice was really good and the melody was actually a pleasant way to wake up, I listened for it each morning and enjoyed it very much in the early light. I tried and really tried to get up early enough one morning to actually go and record it, but alas each morning came and went and the bed was warm and nakedness lay next to me with only a hard lump between us. So the CTP is only a pleasant memory now.
The bungalow...
This pic I had high hopes for when I took it and saw it briefly in the viewfinder....but when I got home unfortunately it was somewhat out of focus...We took a canoe up the river to a rapids area where we had to walk nearly a kilometer to an area to swim, had a natural spa bath there...
My new muslim bride...
The colour of this river I had never seen before, it was red throughout and guess it is from the tanins from the jungle and such, I have seen many a waterhole or pond this colour, but never a huge flowing river...
This was my first real play with my new camera, could not get the 'flow' of the river as I wanted, but here tis above.....below the colour of the river...
My daughters idea of bushwalking...
Nice local drink....someone else can probably agree to the fact that joy juice is tasty...
Early morning on the river....
Arty farty shots of the rangers mode of transport...
Miles and miles of palm oil farms we drove through to get to the river and resort at the National park. Just shows how much original jungle has been lost to this when on one side you have the TN rainforrest and then on the other you drive through hundreds of miles of palm oil trees.
I like poisoning my neighbours dogs till they die cos I'm a cnut

I stopped at a small resort/fishing camp in '98 (?) run by an indigenous tribe living inside the park. Basic, but clean and comfortable ( no electricity but the bungalows/huts were built on stilts and seemed to be cooled by the breeze going over -under and around them !)
Food and fishing were good and even my "city girl" lady from Taiwan enjoyed herself- her first time in a jungle with no 7-11 around the corner !!!
Can't for the life of me remember the name but was recommended by "The Fish Hunter" tackle shop in Jalan Maharajalah in KL !
Cost then was about 1000 MR for 2 people /three days,excluding travel to the pickup point.
That was the only tricky bit from KL - instead of driving North from KL and turning East, you had to drive East from KL - up the east coast road to Terrengannu and then turn West ! A good 6-7 hour drive.
The pickup point was on the East side of the park.

Still have pooket and Koh Hai to come.
Dont know what that is above the windows, probably is cobwebs, cannot say I noticed them. Ok but as they kill the mossies.
Yes the arse is in there.
On a map I have of the park and when we were travelling up the river in the canoe, there were several small bungalow/guesthouse type places in the middle of nowhere.
If you are into hiking and such, then these places would be excellent to go and stay at, arrive by canoe only and spend the time there hiking from place to place. There are apparently small cabins in the park, so the map says, that you can stay at.
With kids and being a lazy old fart these days, not possible for me....plus I kinda like some comfort in me old age.

A rental company is suing Tip for $100,000 after the rapper fails to return a $50,000 screen called a roll drop he rented for last year's 'America's Most Wanted' tour.
T.I. is being sued over stage equipment he rented for his tour last year. According to TMZ, a rental company has filed a lawsuit against the rapper, claiming he stole an expensive screen known as a roll drop.
Used to project videos and photos, the screen was a centerpiece of the stage on Tip and Lil Wayne's "America's Most Wanted" joint tour. T.I. did pay the rental fee but he didn't return the roll drop once the tour wrapped.
The screen is worth $50,000. The rental company is suing for $100,000, saying they could've made lots of money if they were able to rent it to other performers.
T.I. is now working hard on his new album, "Paperwork: The Motion Picture". In a new interview with Bootleg Kev, he revealed the LP would include guest appearances from Rick Ross, The-Dream, Lil Boosie, Young Jeezy, Trae Tha Truth and Nipsey Hussle among others. The set currently has no official release date, but T.I. has said it will arrive "somewhere in Libra season."

Hi All,
I entered China with a Z-Visa, and had it converted to a residence permit as I am currently working/residing in China.
My residence permit/Foreign Expert Certificate expire on June 30th, 2010, and I have already purchased a plane ticket home for July 1st, 2010.
My question: Do I need to get a tourist visa? Does my residence permit have a grace period?
Thank you!

Washing in the absence of soap
Soap is cheap right now. Even with inflation, it's easy to buy solid soap or concentrated soap and then dilute it for the job. Thinking like a Pioneer, imagine not having soap.
While it's relatively easy to make it since it only requires two main components: fat and lye, it will require making some special tools if you don't have them at all. That means collecting the lumber, construction times, several bowls, and time for it to prepare and cure. If you think about it, the lye is very easy to acquire from wood ash, but the issue is the fat. While oil, or tallow (Crisco or Lard or animal fat trimmings from the butcher) are cheap now, finding an animal of sufficient size to harvest the fat is not at all easy.
Imagining that it's possible for STHF, then you've stocked up. Still you'll run out. That means anticipating that, you'll properly dilute your existing soap sufficient to clean, but not overdoing it. If it's too concentrated, it takes far more water to rinse it away. A tiny amount is really needed to remove debris and dirt and natural oils. You've got to reteach your family how to wash with limited resources.
You might also be working with a limited water supply, which means be very careful about washing and timing it based on water availability. I've discussed hygiene and it's importance. Now here's a very basic way of staying pretty clean when you've run out of soap.
There are three main things you've got to attend to: cleaning yourself, laundry, and for cooking. It is best to have separate cleaning bowls for all three. That's tough if you're bugging out. As I've detailed, when bugging out, it's a major undertaking to gather enough water and get everyone clean.
Bathing and Washing Up
Without oil or tallow it's hard to get really clean, but you can just about always make lye from a tiny bit of wood ash added to your wash basin. A second rinse basin will have some hot water added to it from a central pot that stays heating on low on the stove. For folks who are modest, it's pretty easy to do this within a tent or to string up a tarp. If you can fashion up a place with runoff on a slightly pitched hill and some stones to help it to drain, then another person can use a rinse bucket to pour on whoever has some of the mild caustic lye on them. Mostly, you'll be using the scrubbing action of a towel to wipe away cellular debris and dirt with the toil, and using the lye as a disinfectant to knock down the Strep or Staph bacteria that will accumulate on your skin. Lye feels soapy, but can burn the skin, so you make a really weak solution and wipe away and rinse thoroughly. Be careful around your eyes. That's why soap burns them from the lye.
You'll be washing your hair far less. You'll be cleaning off simply with a wet portion of the towel and drying with the other end. When done, you'll squeeze the towel in the lye water and hanging it up to dry. This means timing it when it's cold out and based upon the availability of fire to heat up the water too. You must always clean off hands and feet and face each day. Keeping your feet clean and free of things like cracking, dirt, long nails, and fungus is crucial. You'll be walking WAY MORE than you've ever done in your life. It's far easier to file your nails done every other day in seconds then trying to clip them without a clipper. There are lots of sandstone pieces you can find to do that in the absence of a clipper.
You'll need several pans, several bowls, and a cutting board when cooking. You'll make a bowl of the lye water and run your hands through that and then quickly rinse them as you touch things and keep on cooking. A dedicated kitchen towel will allow you dry off your hands. You'll be minimizing dirtying up dishes to save time cleaning. Making one pot meals and a starch like hard tack or a corn bread will mean less dishes too.
When handling raw meat from harvesting an animal, it's very easy to taint other containers with food in them while preparing the meal. This takes practice. If you don't exercise care, then you can easily introduce Salmonella or Shigella into the stew. People don't normally live out of tens for very long, otherwise they encounter this. Using this system will really cut down on intestinal flu.
Pots get really black from cooking with wood. The best fires are coal fires. Mostly it's the inefficient flame fires that produce lamp black. Rubbing the pans with ash and water and a little sand before will make cleaning the outsides way easier. In addition, the lamp black will get on everything, so using some care about repacking your cooking gear will help. A net like a netted laundry bag makes a great way to carry them. This allows them to dry better and also removes the direct contact with other gear.
Locating some sand, and tossing it into the boiling water, will give you a way of scouring your pans. Try not burning any food as it will make cleaning the interior miserable. Obviously some water poured inside and then boiling away the debris makes this easier too. If you've added a lot of starch from tubers like cattails, this can burn in your pans, so be careful.
Likewise, it's easy to find a tiny pine tree branch as a ready made scrubber. It's also an antiseptic (from a little of the resin), so it's doing double duty.
You'll be wearing clothing more often. You'll be making a little stronger lye solution to wash. Take care of your hands as you'll be doing a lot of hand wringing, unless you modify a mop wringer for the task. You can rig up a washboard pretty easily, but try not to do this too much as you're breaking down clothing fibers. If you've got minimal clothing, you're managing the wash based on who can borrow from another family member. It takes time to dry out clothes or boots, so care must taken. Wet clothes or boots chaff terribly. It meant you did a lousy job timing the wash.
Other hygiene
A little cattail pollen or dried tuber will produce some starch. This is great for chaffing. You'll be no doubt drinking a lot of pine needle tea for Vitamin C. It also produces tannin, so that will help cut down on bacteria in your mouth and breath. Dabbing a more concentrated tea under the arms cuts down on bacteria which is what causes sweat to smell. That's important for hunting as animals will smell you or hear you before they see you.
A little saved tallow will also be helpful for chaffing and for treating your hands. Oils collect in your hair and along your nose, so wipe that into your hands from all the lye being used. This is very important in winter as the humidity declines. Obviously rubbing your hands though hair and on your face will prevent cracking. In times other than winter, scrubbing the skin a little firmer removed the dead skin and giving a health glow. Use caution doing that in the wild as you are exposed to higher bacterial counts and you may get more pimples that way.
You can brush with a little ash or charcoal you ground up. It sound dirty but it actually works and cuts down on bad breath. Mint is found lots of places, and is easy to identify and is prolific, so when you find it, you'll gather it for treating stomach ache, a welcome and calming tea, cleaning the sinuses, making the temporary shelter smell better, etc. It also is a great descenting herb for hunters as mint is s common.
Later after not having soap for so long, you'll see why making soap is so important. If you're lucky enough to have some tallow, then you can make a small batch and let it cure as you travel. Mostly since food may be very limited, you'll be using that fat for essential calories. However at times it comes in all at once from a kill, so that's an opportune time to make tallow lamps, tallow laced cattail candles, or soap. Remember that pine resin is plentiful, and that can be used to make up homemade pine oil cleaner, but dilute it. It's very medicinal too.

New York (AFP) Jan 16, 2013
New York students would ditch textbooks and be issued tablets under a proposal by a leading candidate for mayor.
Christine Quinn, the current city council speaker and a favorite to replace her ally Mayor Michael Bloomberg in November, said the technological upgrade would open "limitless" possibilities.
"Thanks to the Internet, teachers in any given subject can share lessons and materials with colleagues around the world. They can organize those lessons into online textbooks, which their students can read on tablets in school and at home," she said in a speech Tuesday.
"So a teacher in the Bronx can pull together the most relevant information for his class, and update it throughout the year to stay current. He can incorporate videos and interactive multimedia assignments that better engage kids living in a digital world."
According to Quinn, who is vying to be the Big Apple's first woman and lesbian mayor, the project would pay for itself.
"We currently spend more than a $100 million a year on textbooks. That's enough money to buy tablets for every student in New York City public schools, and cover staff costs," she said.
