Hand me a sealed plastic bag of so-called "food" on an airplane and my instinct is not to say "thank you." My instinct is to say, "If any portion of the high cost of my airplane ticket is justified by the expense of this nasty little sack of over-processed by-products, please give me the home address of your CEO because I desperately want to wake him in the night by ramming these airplane-shaped graham crackers down his throat."
On a recent flight between Santa Fe and Portland, Ore.—two cities with strong artisanal bents in terms of food and beverage production—my peanut and cracker offerings from Southwest Airlines struck me as particularly pathetic.
What if, I wondered, airlines picked up exciting and regionally characteristic snacks each time planes stopped in different locations? Dreamy, right? Imagine flying across the country and having a knish followed by an orange followed by a spanakopita followed by mini blue-corn chalupas followed by brandied pears. Instead of crowding onto nonstop flights, people would be looking for an excuse to grab connecting flights.
OK, maybe those particular food items are a little bit unrealistic and maybe nothing will ever defeat the McDonald's theory of global domination: People will sacrifice their minds and bodies to you as long as everything, everywhere tastes exactly the same.
But the genuine hurdle to eating more local food—especially in New Mexico—is to increase production. Even if airlines were begging New Mexico's farmers and food processors to show up with prêt à manger items for top dollar, there would be nothing to give them. At least not now. But if such a bankable demand existed, food production could increase.
When interviewing the Massachusetts-based local economy activist Susan Witt, she recounted to me the experience of visiting a friend in a hospital who was eating the common diet of small amounts of apple sauce each day. Witt noted that apple sauce was easy to produce in the region surrounding the hospital.
"If a hospital like that committed to buying local apple sauce beginning in five years," Witt says, "people could get loans, open a cooperative processing and canning facility and start meeting that demand."
Clearly we are not on the verge of airlines demanding local food during New Mexico pit stops, but there are a few tangible places we can begin locally. Organizations like the Santa Fe Alliance (with its Farm to Restaurant program) and the joint city and county Santa Fe Food Policy Council are doing the heavy lifting, but we need buy-in from large local organizations in order to see a guaranteed revenue stream for local food in the future.
Eating in the restaurant of a local hotel last week, with Witt's comments fresh in my mind, it occurred to me that the Santa Fe Lodgers Association is a perfect leadership entity for such a venture. With many dozens of members that operate restaurants in association with hotels, motels and bed-and-breakfasts, the association constitutes a considerable block of purchasing power and a hugely influential lobby. If the Lodgers Association members each committed to purchasing 10 percent of their ingredients from local sources starting five years from now, it would have the effect Witt described. Farmers could invest in significant greenhouse projects in order to be able to produce more and across multiple seasons. Entrepreneurial and/or cooperative processing and packaging efforts could get off the ground.
Local banks would accept a commitment from the Lodgers Association as an indication of real growth in local foods, so financing would be available for expansion projects.
There are other big entities that are also key (Santa Fe Public Schools is trying to move toward increased reliance on local foods), but it's important for big buyers and block purchasers to step forward and figure out how to commit to leadership roles.
We're never going to have a strong local food economy by selling one meal—or one bag of groceries—at a time.
Hand me a sealed plastic bag of so-called "food" on an airplane and my instinct is not to say "thank you." My instinct is to say, "If any portion of the high cost of my airplane ticket is justified by the expense of this nasty little sack of over-processed by-products, please give me the home address of your CEO because I desperately want to wake him in the night by ramming these airplane-shaped graham crackers down his throat."

Crystal Space is primarily a Software Development Kit, a middleware for developing 3D applications. There is a strong focus on games in particular, but Crystal Space itself is not limited to that. Notable features include strong cross-platform support, numerous utilities, and bindings for multiple languages.
Development-relevant features include
- basic helper classes such as e.g. containers,
- abstraction of platform-specific details, often requiring none to very little platform-specific code in client applications,
- a plugin system, for extensibility, customizability and versatibility, and even
- a custom build system, that can also be used for client applications and provides conveniences such as generation of Visual C++ projects.
While the "heart" of Crystal Space are the 'engine' and 'renderer', essentially providing management of what should be rendered, and actual rendering, there are also helper plugins providing and abstracting file input/output, audio output, physics, input from joysticks, and GUIs.
However, it does not provide any game-specific logic, such as entity management. For this look at Crystal Space's companion project CEL.
Crystal Space is a cross-platform SDK and is known to work on all current major platforms - Windows, Linux, MacOS/X operating systems and x86, AMD64, PowerPC processors.
Crystal Space itself is written in C++ - this being Crystal Space's "native" language it's also recommended when all features should be exhausted to their fullest. Nevertheless, bindings are also available for Python (currently the best supported), Perl and Java.
Developer-relevant documentation can be found in the User's Manual. It contains information on how to build Crystal Space from source ("Building and Installing"), tutorials, HOWTOs, descriptions of SDK components (all in "Using Crystal Space") as well as internal details ("Internal Project Structure"). The section "Working with Engine Content", while being aimed at artists, also contains technicalities that are relevant to developers that also deal with artwork.
A reference of the entire Crystal Space API, the Public API Reference, is available as well.
The Documentation page contains these documentations for other Crystal Space versions, as well as online and offline variants.
Frequently asked questions are answered in the FAQ.

Meow! It seems Hayden Panettiere is already channeling Halloween. The newly engaged star showed up to the Environmental Media Awards on Saturday, October 19, clad in an orange-and-black number—that also happened to be skintight… and see-through.
Comprised of a black lace top with crisscross bandage accents, the dress showcased the 24-year-old star's décolletage and svelte bod. Meanwhile, a bright orange skirt revealed her killer backside. The blonde beauty completed her daring ensemble with sky-high stilettos and a sleek topknot.
But even her head-turning curves couldn't upstage her best accessory: her enormous engagement ring, which, apparently, she designed herself.
"[Montblanc] made me this amazing book where they did a bunch of sketches," she told E! News. "I told them my idea over time and tweaking things here and there, it came to fruition."
The end result of their combined efforts is a giant, emerald-cut sparkler that comes with a reported $500,000 price tag. In other words, Wladimir Klitschko really, really wanted her to get what she wanted. Ain't love grand?
The couple met in 2009 and Hayden (finally) confirmed their engagement two weeks ago on "Live! With Kelly and Michael."
Though Klitschko couldn't attend the event with his future better half, Hayden didn't show up solo. Instead, her younger brother, Jansen Panettiere, came out to support her as she received the evening's EMA Futures Award for her six years with The Whaleman Foundation. Something tells us Hayden's boxing beau is pretty proud of his leading lady.

how to make your cat lose weight
can't stay away from food? piling on the pounds? then you've got a fat cat problem. the solution is not gym sessions but a feeder cage.
in cassandra's multi-cat household, she usually leaves dry food for her cats to eat anytime they want to. but vernon, a previous stray, doesn't know when to stop and has become overweight. cassandra built a feeder cage from an ikea kitchen cart (which she have long forgotten the name of) which only allows slim kitties to get in and nibble.
she tells me, "we did it with an old kitchen cart. the little doorway was made from two ikea picture frames. (ed: the cats crawl through the picture frame doorway to get into the cage. the doorway is made smaller than big vernon) the longer sides are hinged and latched with velcro so that we can get in and out for cleaning and stocking."

53 Responses to how to make your cat lose weight
My issue is that of our three cats, its now actually the middle-sized one who is overweight. I'm contemplating putting together a similar system but with a door that is activated by RFID tag on a collar … and to the haters, please try thinking/understanding/reading before you post calling this cool hack "negligent" — they only thing you're being negligent about is knowledge acquisition.
You gave me the inspiration for my cat. I have had trouble keeping my dog out of my cat's food. Here is my solution. http://capeofdreams.wordpress.com/2012/11/02/kitty-dining-room/
I think this is a great idea. I have 5 cats at home, 3 of which are over weight. I think this would be a great way to help them lose weight while letting the younger two (one is under a yr old and the other is just about 2 yrs old) graze and eat as wanted/needed.They are at different stages in their eating and in their health, so this could just be the solution. Thank you so much for posting this.
Thanks a ton it has been a wonderful help, now to make our cat lose weight is without a doubt simple with the help of your recommendation. Thanks
Love it!!!! I have a cat who, as a kitten, was taken from his mom at 5 or 6 weeks…too early. It is common for kittens weaned too young or bottle-fed to be overeaters. He will not stop eating, ever. My other cat just grazes. If I only feed small portions twice a day, the grazer passes it up, or doesn't eat enough, and he loses weight. So I needed a solution too. (Mine was to put a bowl on top of the fridge because mu chubby overeater was a poor jumper LOL!) This is a great solution you have posted here!
People need to calm down and read this more carefully, calmly, and rationally before jumping to the accusations and conclusions. Otherwise you'll be missing the point of this. It is NOT negligent.
What they are doing is feeding one cat (the overeater) on a schedule. He gets a daily allotment of food, and that's what he gets, end of story.
The other cats do not have diet regulation issues, so they have access to the food supply inside the cabinet.
Putting the rest of the food inside the cabinet is not starving the overweight cat; it's simply preventing him from constantly eating the other cats' food.
It is very common when you have multiple cats for them to eat each other's food. If they don't know when to stop eating, this can lead to weight issues.
This solution is a clever way of guaranteeing that the overweight cat can't "cheat" the diet he needs to be on. The other cats clearly know when to stop eating, so they get to access the food in the cabinet.
Please read the comments and the article more carefully before making these shotgun accusations of negligence and abuse. Clearly the owners care about their pets quite a bit to go to these lengths to make sure that they are all happy, healthy, and fed just the right amount. Thank you.
I was curious to know the measurements of th whole for two reasons,help my fat cat and maybe build sethong like this for the litter box as I have two fiesty huskeys hehe
I doubt the cat draws the conclusion that its girth (or its ability to fit through the opening) is a function of its diet. I don't care if your vet gave you the idea! Please realize that physicians don't always give good advice, even to their human patients.
I live in an area that has a nationally reputable vet med school–Virginia Tech's college of veterinary medicine. My cats' vets are graduates of this program and they advised that for weight loss, for starters simply gradually cut back on food. They informed me that cats are very efficient at conserving energy and are clever at adapting activity to reduced caloric intake. In other words, if you all of a sudden start feeding them less, they'll simply become less active so as not to use many calories. In other words, unlike most of us humans on a diet, they're not trying to lose weight when they eat less! And any vet worth their salt will tell you that starving a cat as way of losing weight is very dangerous.
The cruel aspect of this is that your pet sees its food and cannot get to it. It feels powerless and does not see you as an ally, or as someone who they can trust to help them. Granted, you do give them food. But your pet also sees you as someone who deprives them of a need and this is not a good association for them to have of you. And an animal's survival is based on instincts as well as on associations.
But cruelty aside, I'd seriously consider this contraption–and the advice of your vet–gravely negligent. Please consider an alternative and safer weight loss regimen. And get a second medical opinion.
And for all who say, "my cat just eats everything in front of them" I would say that since they eat everything that YOU put in front of them, just try putting a little less in front of them.
You obviously have a limited understanding of the article. The cage is for the OTHER cats' food, not the FAT cat's food. The fat cat gets fed on a schedule, the other cats get their food from the cage. Duh.
I bet you've never owned a pet in your life, let alone a cat. You probably couldn't be trusted to read the instructions that come with the goldfish starter kits, lest you "set them free" down the toilet.
I have a cat who will gorge until she's sick, but since she's smaller my other cat, this system wouldn't work for her. I just have to watch them eat and take the food away before she can eat too much. It's bloody tedious but there's no other way to stop her eating until she's sick. She still gets plenty of food and she's neither fat nor underweight. But standing around isn't practical and I can never leave dry food out because if she eats any of that, she's sick as well.
Strangely enough, they haven't taken offence at me taking food away once they're finished. They're perfectly happy. It's a wonder they haven't dropped me as an ally or reported me to the SSPCA.
That is very unfair, how would you like to starve because you couldn't fit through your door. Animal cruelty. Why can you not just put food out at meal times only and you cat will become more healthy that way rather then deprive. Poor thing.
Oh, this is a scream. Fun comments. I'm trying to think of a variation on this for use with my blind cat. I have one former stray who pigs out. She's not even a year and is getting a pot belly–just awful. Meanwhile, the blind cat, her sibling, sits on the side waiting for room at the food dish. The fat cat eats everything, and the blind cat just noses around the empty dish… very sad to see!
But the blind cat is also a runt (born with no eyes, scrawny, etc.) so maybe a box like this would work; I want her to eat a lot more. Let fatty pine for the food, for pet(e)'s sake. It'd do her some good!
I did a similar kind of thing for the litter box for the blind kitten; she couldn't manage the big top-entry boxes in the basement for the other cats, so I put a tiny side door on a litter box upstairs for her. Why didn't I think of that for food?
By the way, the same kind of selective feeder concept is used for calves; it's called a "creep feeder". They get special high-nutrient food in feeders that "mom" can't squeeze into.
Good hack! Fun comments! Thanks!
How cute, good job on the construction dutchmen… i have enjoyed reading the feedback of your wifes blog, it reminds me of my kitty who sadly passed… she would only eat cat food if it was a matter of life and death.. she used to get first dibbs at the dogs food before we would give it to the dog..
Very clever indeed… i enjoyed reading your blog and got a good laugh out of the feed back good stuff
Lol some great responses there my cat needs to lose weight all she does it eat sleep and gets patted.. she has certainly got the life
I have a fat cat that never misses a meal and will eat the other cats (who is super picky and hardly eats a thing) food if left out. The result is an obese cat and a thin cat. The answer? Feed them higher quality food in 2 separate bowls. One cat eats behind the basement door- the other in front. after 15 minutes I pick up the bowls and open the door. Unfortunately though- the fat cat clears her plate- and the thin cat has just sniffed his food, and would like to "pick" at it over the next 2 hours- but I have to open the door- it's mean to keep them locked up! Also, I play with them, and let the big one outside for safe playing. This helps! And I have to say… I can see why this would work… it does seem mean- but it also seems functional. I can imagine the thin cat eating at will while the fat cat eats her 2 meals. Thank you for rescuing animals! In fact, my fat cat is a rescue- I think the poor dear eats because her last owner would not feed her half the time. It's like people that survived the great depression and you can't stop them from stockpiling cans in the basement.
This is so awesome – both the contraption and these comments. Kudos to Cass & Dutchman. Some people either don't know how to read (yes, fat cat does eat; no, he doesn't sit outside longingly) or never thought about what it takes to cater to multiple dietary needs and temperaments. Thanks for the idea – beats lockups in separate rooms!
Oh for god's sake – some of you people are acting like cats are 100 year old humans! A cat is a cat is a cat, with a loving heart and the attention span of a two year old.
These people are not caging cats and leaving them without food, nor are they leaving the chubby cat with no means throughout the entire day. Some cats will stop eating when they're full – others don't know any better and will eat until they barf. And for that matter, the chubby cat probably gives far less of a damn than anybody else does about what's inside that cage – out of sight, out of mind.
As the owner of a diabetic cat who has to have his eating limited all his life, I can safely say that these people are right on track. It's much better to love them by helping them be healthy than it is to kill them with kindness (and possibly disease)!
All you haters,,, um they brought a stray into there house and are taking care of it. I dont think they will starve it. I am sure they are feeding the fat cat what it 'SHOULD' have while alouing the otheres to continue to eat as they have learned.
I have read the comments and while it is not right to let a cat remain overweight it is also not right to tease the cat either. That is what you're doing by having this cage. I also think the vet who told you about it was on crack, because that is not right to do to a cat. I have three cats of my own, the one has recently put on some weight, but i would never build a cage. What you should do is spend more time playing with the cat so that it gets some exercise. It seems like you're punishing the cat for your own mistakes. Maybe someone should build a cage and put your food in it so you can see how it feels.
For real, Prue! I think this is a marvelous idea and not in the least cruel. I have five cats and two (including a 20+ year old) pretty much can and should be able to munch anytime they want. One has to be fed separately because he's not supposed to have dry kibble and one won't eat the wet food. So a couple variations on this would solve a lot of problems and get Valentino out of my bathroom…which really is mean, because he doesn't get enough exercise or sunlight! (Don't worry, he doesn't stay in there all the time). I figure the folks who knock an idea like this either have no cats or only have one and don't really know much about cats or the dynamics of dealing with multiple cats. Added bonus of keeping my Golden out of the food!!
Heavens, anon, can you READ? i suppose you can – so why don't you try and read what cassandra explained before you condemn this?
just to say it again: letting a cat be overweight is NOT animal-friendly.
the chubby cat gets food at regular hours, but there are other cats who need to have food available ALL day long.
how animal-friendly would it be (to the thin cat and the chubby one and the one who only eats according to her own schedule) to simply leave the food (meaning chubby eats it) or to have no food around (meaning "bad luck" for the others)?
someone teach people to read and think before writing….
Why are there so many positive comments on this? It sounds really cruel… "You'll get to eat when you can fit through that door". Someone call the SPCA.
seriously people this is not cruel,not for a second.. this is doing cat owners a favor the world over!!! I have two cats who eat normally and one who eats anything in sight. she has become ridiculously large and I do not know what to do but this. you can't exactly give a cat a personal training session everyday. I would like to see what the haters do in a multi cat household to get their one obese animal to lose weight. you guys are freakin ridiculous.
It KEEPS THE DOG out of the cat food!
Thank you!
If you feel the cat's health would benefit from a few ounces lost (the cat doesn't look chunky to me), feeding him a diet that does not contain grains/carbs would be the best way to accomplish this. Remember, cats are obligate carnivores. They do not need rice, cereals, carrots, etc, for a "well balanced diet".
All adorable kitties, by the way!
After reading some of the comments, just wanted to pop in and say that it is certainly not cruel. I think it's a really smart way to meet the needs of a lot of cats, which is a hard thing to do! I am sure his 'hurt feelings' (heh) are assuaged by the love his obviously gets from you all!
I can't imagine how some responders find this a "Mean" idea! How might Fat cat might feel seeing the food but having to eat a healthy portion???
Anthropomorphize much?
I think this is a great invention and I'm going to replicate it in my kitchen. We have a very slim cat who started life very sick and we helped back to health. We recently adopted an elderly neighbours very overweight cat when the man had to go into a care facility and could not take his pet. Our skinny boy had a very painful urethra blockage and eats quite expensive specialized food for this condition which fat boy gorges on and often vomits up.
We need to leave a grazing bowl for small man to have and the dog would eat any cat food left down.
This looks like a win win solution to assist obese one to slim down to a healthy size.
hmmm. How about getting feeding them the right food and the right about and playing with them? Cruel and idiotic.
it looks like a 'reban ayam' la lol
wonder the cat would enjoy being inside there..
If he got in, stuffed himself and couldn't get out, you'd have to re-name him Pooh Bear.
this is the most hysterical thing ever! as i read the post and all the comments, i was laughing so loud i just about peed my pants!
I'd imagine they would let him out! They got the big feeder thing in there through the side which is hinged and velcroed, it seems the cat could get out the same way.
And if they are feeding him 4 times a day, they might notice if he got stuck or something.
Y'all should mellow out. Good on these people for adopting cats and caring enough to keep them healthy. Obese cats get diabetes and then you have to make them pee on sticks! Then they die early. Who the hell wants that?
Great idea and attractive implementation. Thanks for sharing it.
There are a lot of crazy haters out there. All animals, including humans, are driven by instincts evolved (or granted by god) for a state of nature. These instincts are not necessarily beneficial in the context of civilization.
We all come up with strategies for dealing with these undesirable instincts. The accusation that helping this cat with its instinct to overeat is a form of cruelty is difficult to understand. For example, most cats like to reproduce, but we limit that instinct radically. Also, most cats like to go outside, but that can be a very dangerous proposition in some places and so they are kept inside.
Most people don't find these to be cruel, even though they are both more radical constraints on a cat's desire than giving one cat access to food that another cat can't get to.
It would be nice if the haters constrained their instinct to be cruel.
what if the cat stuffed itself and became fat and couldnt get out?
cassandra's husband here- the carpenter
rest assured- vernon ignores this thing. he sniffed at it once, maybe… he is fed 4 times a day. he's living a much better life than he was living on the freeway on-ramp that cassandra found him on as a kitten
and if he really wanted in, he could do it- he's got some girth on him and he is not shy about doors and such- I think he's simply too sophisticated for such behavior.
and the way we have the cart positioned in our kitchen it is not rolling anywhere
thanks for all the concern, folks.
I understand you're trying to do the right thing for the chubby kitty and it's obviously wonderful that you have him on a feeding schedule and that you're taking care of the little guy! I tend to wonder how chubby kitty feels when he sees the food in the cage and can't get to it to eat. That does seem to be a tad bit mean. You certainly know your household and your kitties needs better than I do but maybe, just maybe there's a better solution? And then again, chubby kitty may not care if he can get to the food or not since you're feeding him so well already!
Again, kudos to you for being such a kind person and taking care of stray kitties and being such a good mom to your furkids as well! We need more like you!
The cart is the BEKVÄM. I have it, very sturdy and versatile!
It only has wheels on two of its legs and you can block them, so no danger of kitty-rides!
Wow that is really an awesome idea!!!
Visit my blog, recklessranting.blogspot.com
Cassandra, I think it's brilliant, and thought so *before* I read your comment spelling it out for the foolish people who assumed that you'd be cruel enough to starve your poor poufy kitty into shape.
mean? goodness gracious!
first, the vet suggested this system and we just modified it for space.. (the vet said some folks use a box, which we thought was too dark)
as far as schedules go, i feed them 4 times a day! vern (chubby kitty) gets a measured amount of dry at 6 and 6. leela and vern also get wet food at 11 and 11. hannah doesn't eat by anybody's sched so she just watches as they eat. she turns up her nose at wet food (in case you think i'm mean for leaving her out).
it's not like we see vern hanging outside the cage pining away for the dry food! that would be mean.
also, one of our girls is a senior with kidney probs and needs to gain as much weight as possible. when we adopted her she just sat in front of the fridge all day – literally. if she couldn't graze as needed, we would never have all the snuggle time we have with her. (we also give her sub-cu fluids twice a week – which i think shows how much we care about her)
so don't be no haters! and please, i'm a hemophiliac liberal. animal love doesn't have a political party!
It's not mean to make sure the cat doesn't overeat, but it IS mean to make sure the cat CANNOT eat because its overweight. I agree that the humans should just get off their own asses and measure the damn food out if it's such an issue.
However–the cat's gonna find a way in there regardless. It will probably wreck the thing in the process, but that's what you get when you stop feeding animals. Thing is, he'll probably get in, eat all the food, and then not be able to get back out.
so in the meanwhile the cat starves until it can fit inside that box?
how about feeding your cat less?
why is it mean to make sure a cat does not overeat? ridiculous. that is the kind of bleeding heart comment that so often goes for "animal love".
that is a cute and clever hack, and i bet the cats would not really mind a ride, either …
I have to agree that this is a bit mean–the best thing to do is to get your cats on an eating schedule and portion their food. When the food is gone, they have to wait until the next feeding time. This works with our five cats and we do have one chubby cat, our beautiful Katie and she is adjusting and slimming down.
Awww…poor chubby kitty don't get no kibble and has to watch skinny kitty eat??? that is tooo mean!
Um, that's mean.
Instead of asking a cat to learn new behavior, why not change yours? Don't allow "grazing". Instead, put out a measured amount of cat food and remove bowls after feeding. Train yourself.
you start off so "enlightened" sounding, but then you tell the owner not to allow the cat to be a cat. Healthy cats graze. If they were outdoors they wouldn't get fat. This is the kindest solution, you sound mean to me.
Healthy cats do not graze. Where the hell did you get that idea. They are hunters, they are not cows. Cows graze. Hunters work hard for their food and burn off the calories that they consume and have sparse meals. ANY VET WORTH THEIR SALT WOULD TEL YOU THIS. Also, they wouldn't be eating such carb-dense foods like kibble in the wild! So no wonder cats get fat when they are free-fed dry food indoors all day.
I love it, but do you ever take the cat for a ride in it? I still see the wheels are still attached. Just imagine if the other cat got mad/jealous and pushed the cart around while the cat was trying to eat. I could see my boyfriend's cat who is a miniature Jabba the Hutt grunting and pushing this thing around while the little cat eats.
What a great idea! It also stops the dog from eating the cat food.
I think I need a feeder cage myself! Market a human size one!
that is hilarious. slim cat gets to eat.
nice cat house, too
That's a great idea. I wonder if the fatter cat will develop some way of getting the food anyway. I'd imagine if the cat ran into the thing at full speed several times some of those kibbles would come flying out.

SID: Strictly Sid on Ice to sign the Water Efficient Pledge05-Dec-2012
Sid the Shark was down at the Royal Pavilion Ice Rink last week to show his support to Southern Water's water efficiency campaign.
Southern Water are a Community Partner of Sussex County Cricket Club and with water metering arriving in Brighton and Hove this month, local residents are being asked to make a water efficient pledge, underneath a unique Southern Water Pledge Christmas tree created from water bottles, which represent the average household's usage.
When completed in 2015, the five-year metering project to install nearly 500,000 water meters across Kent, Sussex and Hampshire could save 30 million litres of water a day - more than enough to meet the needs of Worthing, Eastbourne and Bognor Regis combined. Furthermore, they are installing meters which automatically detect leaks in customers' pipes – the first of their kind in the UK – to save a further seven million litres a day.
For more information about the Pledge Tree, please visit www.facebook.com/SWPledgeTree and to find out more about metering in Brighton and Hove, please visit www.yourwatermeter.co.uk or call Southern Water's Metering Call Centre on 03332003013

More about Red Horse Signs
Our vintage signs bring back memories and thoughts of a time when gas was 18 cents, a house cost $6500, bread 8 cents and milk 34 cents. A time when you were sick, the doctor showed up at your front door with his black bag. Our vintage signs give you a glimpse of what it was like living in that time. We design each sign using styles, lettering, and colors from that bygone time. We hand paint an original sign and then print reproductions directly to distressed hardwood panels. Panels are 1" thick and are made from tongue and groove hardwood for superior character and value. Each vintage sign has knots and other imperfections making it appear to be an antique and rustic looking. And remember, each sign can be customized. We hope you enjoy our work and find something interesting for your home.
Red Horse signs are made in the USA.

The placenta is a large organ that develops in the uterus during pregnancy and is connected to the fetus by the umbilical cord. Through the blood vessels in the umbilical cord and placenta, the fetus receives oxygen and nutrients from the mother and gets rid of wastes.
The placenta is delivered soon after the baby is born. (This is sometimes called the afterbirth.)

REMICADE® Patient Support
Welcome to Janssen CarePath
Information you may need to help you get started and stay on track
Janssen CarePath is here to help answer your questions about infusion treatment with REMICADE®. Once your doctor has prescribed REMICADE®, we will give you resources that may help you get started and stay on track. We'll also give you information about how this medication is given by your doctor, how to pay for it, and what questions you may want to ask your doctor and insurance plan.
Paying for REMICADE®
If you have commercial or private health insurance and need help paying for REMICADE®, the Janssen CarePath Savings Program may be able to help. If you don't have commercial or private health insurance, you may find help from the programs and resources available from the Janssen Prescription Assistance Web site.
Getting Started
Janssen CarePath provides the additional support you may need to help get started with REMICADE® infusion treatment. A personally assigned Janssen CarePath Care Coordinator will work closely with you and your doctor to help get you started.
Staying on Track
Janssen CarePath offers additional support to help you stay on track with your REMICADE® treatment as prescribed by your doctor.
REMICADE® is a prescription medication used to treat:
Crohn's Disease
- Can reduce signs and symptoms and induce and maintain remission in adult patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease who haven't responded well to other therapies
Pediatric Crohn's Disease
- Can reduce signs and symptoms and induce and maintain remission in children (ages 6-17) with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease who haven't responded well to other therapies
Ulcerative Colitis
- Can reduce signs and symptoms, induce and maintain remission, promote intestinal healing, and reduce or stop the need for steroids in adult patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who haven't responded well to other therapies
Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis
- Can reduce signs and symptoms and induce and maintain remission in children (ages 6-17) with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who haven't responded well to other therapies

Only your doctor can recommend a course of treatment after checking your health condition. REMICADE® (infliximab) can cause serious side effects such as lowering your ability to fight infections. Some patients, especially those 65 years and older, have had serious infections caused by viruses, fungi or bacteria that have spread throughout the body, including tuberculosis (TB) and histoplasmosis. Some of these infections have been fatal. Your doctor should monitor you closely for signs and symptoms of TB during treatment with REMICADE®.
Unusual cancers have been reported in children and teenage patients taking TNF-blocker medicines. Hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma, a rare form of fatal lymphoma, has occurred mostly in teenage or young adult males with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis who were taking REMICADE® and azathioprine or 6-mercaptopurine. For children and adults taking TNF blockers, including REMICADE®, the chances of getting lymphoma or other cancers may increase.
You should discuss any concerns about your health and medical care with your doctor.
What should I tell my doctor before I take REMICADE®?
You should let your doctor know if you have or ever had any of the following:
- Tuberculosis (TB) or have been near someone who has TB. Your doctor will check you for TB with a skin test. If you have latent (inactive) TB, you will begin TB treatment before you start REMICADE®.
- Lived in a region where certain fungal infections like histoplasmosis or coccidioidomycosis are common.
- Infections that keep coming back, have diabetes or an immune system problem.
- Any type of cancer or a risk factor for developing cancer, for example, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or had phototherapy for psoriasis.
- Heart failure or any heart condition. Many people with heart failure should not take REMICADE®.
- Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection or think you may be a carrier of HBV. Your doctor will test you for HBV.
- Nervous system disorders (like multiple sclerosis or Guillain-Barré syndrome).
Also tell your doctor if you:
- Use the medicines Kineret (anakinra), Orencia (abatacept) or Actemra (tocilizumab) or other medicines called biologics used to treat the same problems as REMICADE®.
- Are pregnant, plan to become pregnant, are breast-feeding, or have a baby and were using REMICADE® during your pregnancy. Tell your baby's doctor about your REMICADE® use. If your baby receives a live vaccine within 6 months after birth, your baby may develop infections with serious complications that can lead to death.
- Recently received or are scheduled to receive a vaccine. Adults and children taking REMICADE® should not receive live vaccines or treatment with a weakened bacteria (such as BCG for bladder cancer) while taking REMICADE®.
What should I watch for and talk to my doctor about before or while taking REMICADE®?
The following serious (sometimes fatal) side effects have been reported in people taking REMICADE®.
You should tell your doctor right away if you have any of the signs listed below:
- Infections (like TB, blood infections, pneumonia)—fever, tiredness, cough, flu, or warm, red or painful skin or any open sores. REMICADE® can make you more likely to get an infection or make any infection that you have worse.
- Lymphoma, or any other cancers in adults and children.
- Skin cancer—any changes in or growths on your skin.
- Heart failure—new or worsening symptoms, such as shortness of breath, swelling of your ankles or feet, or sudden weight gain.
- Reactivation of HBV—feeling unwell, poor appetite, tiredness, fever, skin rash and/or joint pain.
- Liver injury—jaundice (yellow skin and eyes), dark brown urine, right-sided abdominal pain, fever, or severe tiredness.
- Blood disorders—fever that doesn't go away, bruising, bleeding or severe paleness.
- Nervous system disorders—numbness, weakness, tingling, changes in your vision or seizures.
- Allergic reactions during or after the infusion—hives, difficulty breathing, chest pain, high or low blood pressure, swelling of face and hands, and fever or chills.
- Lupus-like syndrome—chest discomfort or pain that does not go away, shortness of breath, joint pain, rash on the cheeks or arms that gets worse in the sun.
- Psoriasis—new or worsening psoriasis such as red scaly patches or raised bumps on the skin that are filled with pus.
The more common side effects with REMICADE® are respiratory infections (that may include sinus infections and sore throat), headache, rash, coughing and stomach pain.

INTERPOL workshop prepares for launch of West Africa police information system
LYON, France – In the framework of its West African Police Information System (WAPIS) Programme, INTERPOL held the sixth a series of workshops aiming to prepare the forthcoming implementation of the police information sharing system.
The three-day meeting (26-28 June) held at the INTERPOL General Secretariat brought together representatives from the five WAPIS pilot countries (Benin, Ghana, Mali, Mauritania and Niger), the INTERPOL Regional Bureau in Abidjan, the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) and Civi.Pol, the consultancy agency of the French Ministry of the Interior.
The workshop was opened by Lieutenant Colonel Abdourahmane Dieng, Head of the Regional Security Division of ECOWAS, who emphasized the fruitful collaboration among all the partners involved in the WAPIS.
This final workshop focused on the training needs analysis and objectives to be put in place so as to ensure that WAPIS is launched successfully and sustainably.
The participants also discussed and agreed an action plan for the coming months, which importantly will include a visit of the WAPIS management team to each pilot country to support the designated points of contact and ensure the continued support of their respective authorities.
Additionally, the workshop allowed the participants to exchange best practices and points of view from each of the different pilot countries. It concluded with the adoption of common principles for a provisional training plan, which will be further developed in the coming months.
The WAPIS Programme, funded by the European Union and implemented by INTERPOL in collaboration with ECOWAS, aims to create a national and regional infrastructure for police information exchange in West Africa.

Menopause is the point in a woman's life when her ovaries stop producing enough hormones to keep the menstrual cycle going. It's sometimes called "the change of life." It usually happens around age 50, but every woman's body has its own timeline.
Some women go through menopause early because of cancer treatment or surgery to remove the ovaries.
Menopause is a natural part of growing older. You don't need treatment unless your symptoms bother you.

Honoring family is great, but you've got to love the name. Maybe stick family names in the middle? Personally, I gave my daughter 2 middles- one honoring one of my family members & one for a husband's family member. The first name is all her own, just one we loved!
Also- look to surnames and family occupations, place names of towns/states your family lived in or hailed from, important months, hobbies & values. That way if you can't make your great aunt's first name wearable you could use something like Cambell if it were her maiden name, Summer if she loved warm weather or Tailor if she worked as a seemstress or Magnolia if you remember the trees in her backyard, ect. You might be surprised what you find if you just start writing down words that you associate with these specific family members.
Mary Catherine - Marietta, Merit, May, Mavis, Mabel, Marina, Marin, Marisa, Marissa, Marika, Marcy, Macy, Marcela, Marcella, Marsha, Mara, Moira, Marvel, Marlene, Marla, Marlena, Marnie, Katherine, Katia, Katrina, Nina
Shirley Grace - Shay, Gray, Shelly, Marcheline,
Ella Mae- Ellen, Elena, Elle
Lisa Renee - Lee, Analiese, Lila, Lita, Leda, Lina, Wren

Are you looking for trendy, modern, vintage, classic, etc.? I think narrowing down your style will help your figure out which direction to go
There are lot of options my favorite tend to be looking at the letters.
First of all any two names put together could be honoring if they have the same initials as the person you are honoring:
Melanie Clarice, Savannah Gertrude, Eve Mary, Lorelai Rachel all work.
Mary Catherine I like McKenzie or McKinzie as way to honor M.C. I also think all of the international variations could work. Rosemary could also work.
Shirley Grace is tough. I like Grace as a first name. Hannah/Anna/Nancy all mean grace. Maybe Hannah Shirley? Maybe Shelby seems more modern. Anne Shelby? Sky seems another option.
Ella Mae is gorgeous and very modern sounding. Ella could be Eleanor. If you look at Nameberry's post today it has ideas for names to do with Mae. also something with the name Ella in it. Stella, Marcella, etc.
Finally Lisa Renee. An out of the box suggestion is Isla, which is an anagram of the Lisa. Renee is a cognate of Renata, Renate, Renia.
Here are the international variations:
Good Luck!

Hi Kojip,
Before I came here I had visited several Zen online boards (in different languages), and I was very disappointed that there was no difference to other online boards. (I had been moderator in an online forum years ago and it was just crazy, you wouldn't believe it). Lots of people seeking attention, even people who seemed fond of arguing. And the one thing I had expected least from Zen folks: lots of attachments - my school is better, that sect just doesn't get it, you must reach, reach, reach enlightenment, oh nooo he just said the forbidden "E" word! I felt almost appalled.
I kind of accepted I would carry on practising on my own when I stumbled upon Treeleaf. And it was the place I knew I would feel comfortable with. It is like an internet Zen oasis.
Still, I agree with Chet that we should check/review our own practice from time to time. I personally don't want to be attached to it. As soon as I feel I can't live without it any more, then I know something is probably wrong.

- Background: Thymostimulin is a thymic peptide fraction with immune-mediated cytotoxicity against hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in vitro and palliative efficacy in advanced HCC in two independent phase II trials. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of thymostimulin in a phase III trial. Methods: The study was designed as a prospective randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind, multicenter clinical phase III trial. Between 10/2002 and 03/2005, 135 patients with locally advanced or metastasised HCC (Karnofsky [greater than or equal to]60% / Child-Pugh [less than or equal to]12) were randomised to receive thymostimulin 75 mg s.c. 5x/week or placebo stratified according to liver function. Primary endpoint was twelve-month survival, secondary endpoints overall survival (OS), time to progression (TTP), tumor response, safety and quality of life. A subgroup analysis according to liver function, KPS and tumor stage (Okuda, CLIP and BCLC) formed part of the protocol. Current Controlled Trials ISRCTN64487365. Results: Twelve-month survival was 28% [95%CI 17-41; treatment] and 32% [95%CI 19-44; control] with no significant differences in median OS (5.0 [95% CI 3.7-6.3] vs. 5.2 [95% CI 3.5-6.9] months; p=0.87, HR=1.04 [95% CI 0.7-1.6]) or TTP (5.3 [95%CI 2.0-8.6] vs. 2.9 [95%CI 2.6-3.1] months; p=0.60, HR=1.13 [95% CI 0.7-1.8]). Adjustment for liver function, Karnofsky status or tumor stage did not affect results. While quality of life was similar in both groups, fewer patients on thymostimulin suffered from accumulating ascites and renal failure. Conclusions: In our phase III trial, we found no evidence of any benefit to thymostimulin in the treatment of advanced HCC and there is therefore no justification for its use as single-agent treatment. The effect of thymostimulin on hepato-renal function requires further confirmation. trial registration: Current Controlled Trials ISRCTN64487365

The price for this one was way out of my budget, and this style is no longer available through Anthropologie. So I found several more options. West Elm has a similar style, in organic cotton, for a smaller price ($99), but it was still out of my budget.
I also found that Target carries a line called 'Kissing Pleat" for $70-$80 and Wal-Mart's Better Homes and Gardens line has a pleated comforter in-stores, or at least the one by me, for about $60-$80. While perusing the internet for my spoils, I remembered a friend of mine mentioning that she would make her own covers from two flat sheets sewn together. I started looking for cute sheets that would go with my existing bedroom decor... but never found any single sheets for under $20.
So, I went out on the town... Four stores and three hours later, I came home empty handed and frustrated. I had found no single flat sheets, only expensive sheet SETS, and I had no idea as to where I could go from there. It was back to the drawing board. I knew that I could find a way to make my own cover, but I just needed to rejuvenate. After a half-hour of searching the internet, I remembered my pin-tucked duvets that I had fallen in love with... and, silly me, I GOOGLED 'How to make your own pin-tucked duvet cover'. Cayenne and Carob was the blog that came up, with a page about making pin-tucked pillows. So, I figured I would try it... and may I say, it was a smashing success.
First, I went out and bought some PLAIN flat sheets from -GASP- Wal-Mart. I'm not a big Wal-Mart fan, but when the going gets tough... buck up and go to the big W. There, I found two Navy blue flat sheets, queen size, for $11 each. Total cost: $23 with tax. It was a good start. I took the sheets home and started my quest. After washing the sheets, I spread the sheets out in my living room, as that's the only place big enough for me to work on a project such as this.
I then mapped out a grid for my pin-tucks. I roughly followed the fold lines, just because I'm a little lazy and wanted a more random look, using chalk to mark the places.
After that, I used the method shown on Cayenne's blog, which she borrowed from Martha Stewart Magazine, to tie the pin-tucks.*EDIT*
And as per request, here's a little update on the pin-tucking!
Then twist it, like so, so when you sew it, it'll pucker itself into a gorgeous little kisser.
After completing my grid of pin-tucks, I pulled out my sewing machine sewed the two sheets together, leaving an opening at the bottom, so I could get my comforter inside it. I used a straight stitch, since I am a novice seamstress. Remember to sew the sheets facing in (So when you flip it inside out to put the comforter in, the finished side is on the outside). Made that mistake... and had to pull it apart and sew that side again. After sewing them together, I put it on my comforter... and VOILA! Finished product!
Total Time: 3 Hours Money Spent: $23
Second time around
Total time: 2 hours Money Spent: $12 (because I thrifted brand-new white flat sheets YAY!)

Jim Foster has been named the new head coach of the Chattanooga Lady Mocs basketball team, UTC athletic director David Blackburn revealed in a tweet this afternoon.
It is our pleasure to welcome Hall of Fame Coach Jim Foster as our new Head Women's Basketball Coach – gomocs.com/ViewArticle.db. – #gomocs
– David Blackburn (@DBlackburnUTC) May 9, 2013
Foster, a 2013 Women's Basketball Hall of Fame inductee, won six consecutive Big Ten titles at Ohio State before being firedafter an 18-13 finish in 2012-13, but the 35-year-old coaching veteran had made it clear that he wasn't quite ready to call it quits.
"Chattanooga has always been one of our favorite places, going back to the early 90's when the SEC tournament was hosted in this city," Foster said. "I have always had a favorable impression of Chattanooga because of that and have been back often with my wife. [Former head coach Wes Moore] has done an absolutely terrific job of building a program that I have a lot of respect for. I am ready to work."
Foster, whose also made head-coaching stops at Vanderbilt and St. Joseph's (Pa.), has compiled 783 wins and a .718 winning percentage in his career. He led Ohio State to six straight Big Ten titles, 10 consecutive NCAA tournament appearances and was named Big Ten coach of the year four times,before being let go by the Buckeyes after a disappointing 18-13 finish last season.
"It was apparent from the beginning of this process that the strong tradition of excellence surrounding our women's basketball program would attract a well-qualified candidate pool," Blackburn said. "I had no idea that we would be able to hire a Hall of Famer like Jim Foster.
"His career speaks for itself. He has achieved success at both the collegiate and international levels, while maintaining programs that graduate student-athletes and prepare them for productive and meaningful lives."
Foster replaces Moore, who left for North Carolina State last month after 15 seasons in charge of the Lady Mocs.
A pusblic reception/press conference has been scheduled for Friday at noon in the Chattanooga Room of the University Center, officially introducting Foster as UTC's fifth women's basketball coach in school history.

WOMEN & GIRLS: Clubs come together at the Christ's Hospital W&Gs Club Day
At the end of every season the Sussex Cricket Board hosts the Women & Girls club day at Horsham CC, which this year was sponsored by Christ's Hospital.
The Women & Girls club day sees all the winners of the West and East area leagues come together and play the finals, along with the Women's cup final.
This years club day was an even bigger event as five finals took place in one day, along with all the presentations of the trophies won throughout the season. Sussex CCC Chief Executive Zac Toumazi and the SCB Head of Recreational Cricket, Tim Shutt were in charge of the barbeque.
The day started early with the under 13 softball final between Chippingdale CC and Brighton and Hove CC, with Chipps the victors. Simultaneously, the main pitch saw the first women's final, the T20 format, contested between Ansty CC and Brighton & Hove CC, with Ansty coming out on top.
The under 11 softball final was won by St Andrews CC (who are new to the league this year) after scoring 305 and beating last years champions, Chippingdale CC.
In the afternoon the last junior club final took place, the under 13 hardball final between Chippingdale CC and Eastbourne CC. Chipps went home with their second trophy of the day after beating Eastbourne convincingly.
The final match of the day was the Womens 40 over cup between Ansty CC and Hastings & St Leonards Priory CC, who were looking to make amends after last year's final defeat.
Hastings batted first and scored an impressive 209 for 2 with a top score of 93 from Megan Janman and a run a ball 53 from Abigail Freeborn.
Hastings bowled tightly and kept Ansty down to 129 for 9 off their 40 overs, with Natasha Maharaj-Newman taking 4 for 36 on their way to victory.
Sussex Cricket Board Community Coach Charlotte Burton said, " The Women & Girls club day is a big event for us. It is a chance to get all the clubs together to celebrate women and girls cricket in Sussex and showcase some strong club cricket as well as holding all the finals in one day. The day went well and was well supported by Sussex CCC, Sussex Cricket Board and the Sussex WCA with a number of players coming to support the day. Many thanks to Christ's Hospital for sponsoring the event."

Rev. Taigu and others, thanks for your feedback.
When you say not to "use it as such," does that mean not to use it as it is, with any designs that are on it? I have the intention of using the fabric that's just green, as opposed to the parts with designs, so should I still dye it regardless?

Singapore visit to INTERPOL highlights how strong international collaboration enhances policing worldwide
LYON, France – Singapore's Deputy Prime Minister and Coordinating Minister for National Security and Minister for Home Affairs, Teo Chee Hean, has met with INTERPOL Secretary General Ronald K. Noble as part of collaborative efforts between Singapore and INTERPOL against 21st century threats such as cybercrime.
During his visit to the INTERPOL General Secretariat headquarters, the first by a Deputy Prime Minister, Mr Teo was briefed on the world police body's full range of tools and services which assist law enforcement globally on a daily basis and which in 2012 alone facilitated some 9,000 arrests worldwide.
With preparations for establishing the INTERPOL Global Complex for Innovation (IGCI) due to open in Singapore in 2014 on the agenda, the visit provided an opportunity for Deputy Prime Minister Teo and Secretary General Noble to review security issues, INTERPOL operations and international police cooperation.
Commending the excellent work of INTERPOL, Deputy Prime Minister Teo said: "There is much that INTERPOL has accumulated in terms of knowledge, network and processes over its long history, we hope that with the IGCI in Singapore, this network that is built up in Lyon will be able to spread and the good work that you have done will be multiplied through the IGCI, not just in Asia, but throughout the world." Deputy Prime Minister Teo was accompanied by senior officials from the Ministry of Home Affairs, including Senior Deputy Secretary and former INTERPOL President Khoo Boon Hui.
A recent success in INTERPOL's cooperation with Singapore saw the arrest in Milan of Admir Suljic, a suspected international match-fixer wanted by Italian authorities and subject of an INTERPOL Red Notice, or international wanted persons alert. His arrest followed close cooperation between Italian and Singaporean Police working through their INTERPOL National Central Bureaus and INTERPOL headquarters in Lyon to track and apprehend Suljic as he travelled from Singapore to Italy.
Describing Singapore as an active and valued member country, Secretary General Noble said: "The successful international operation involving Singapore to apprehend Admir Suljic is exactly the type of result which can be achieved when police share information in real time and use INTERPOL's global network to locate, identify and arrest suspects."
With the establishment of the IGCI in Singapore opening the way towards a reinforced presence of INTERPOL in the region, Mr Noble highlighted its 'decisive role in fostering effective 21st century international police cooperation' and in meeting the needs of INTERPOL's 190 member countries for technology and innovation-based police training and capacity-building.
"With criminals taking ever greater advantage of technology and law enforcement facing increasing challenges, the IGCI will allow INTERPOL and global policing to remain one step ahead of transnational criminals by relying upon high-tech crime expertise as well as on Singapore's and Asia's dynamism and culture of innovation," said Secretary General Noble.
"The establishment of the IGCI will herald a milestone in the history of international law enforcement and of INTERPOL, and underscores Singapore's exceptional commitment to international security," concluded the INTERPOL Chief.

Union Activities Council brings domestic violence speaker to Emporia State campusFebruary 28, 2012
The Union Activities Council will be bringing Teri Jendusa-Nicolai to speak at 7 p.m. Wednesday, March 14 in Webb Hall in the Memorial Union on Emporia State University's campus.
Teri has survived the unthinkable. Her ex-husband tried to murder her back in January, 2004 by hitting her in the head with a baseball bat, stuffing her bloody body in a garbage can, driving her across state lines, and placing her in a storage locker to die. Teri has been seen on "Oprah," ABC's "20/20," "I Survived" on A&E, WE network, and CNN.
Susan Moran, Executive Director of SOS, said, "UAC is doing a great service to the students of ESU and to everyone in the community. To truly learn about the plight of domestic violence survivors requires survivors to tell their story so that others may learn. Teri is extremely brave for speaking out. I hope that students and community members take advantage of this great opportunity to learn about domestic violence.
Domestic violence is usually put on the back burner and people pretend like it's not happening, but it is time somebody talked about it; someone like Teri Jendusa-Nicolai. Teri has a powerful story that can be empowering, something the "Power E" of ESU Stands for!
Check out our students' achievements and accomplishments on Emporia State's meritpages.com site

November 14, 2014
Jefferson City, MO- Lincoln University, in cooperation with the United Way of Central Missouri, will screen a film which promotes the power of educating young girls. âGirl Risingâ, is the story of nine girls from various parts of the world who are able to change their lives and the lives of others through education. The screening is scheduled for Monday, November 17, at 6:30 p.m. in Lincoln Universityâs Scruggs University Center Ballroom. Admission is free with a valid student ID, $5 for non-students. Doors to the ballroom will open at 6 p.m.
According to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), some 66 million girls are not receiving education around the globe. Instead of classrooms, many of these girls will be found in arranged marriages, domestic slavery and/or sex trafficking. The 10x10 Campaign works to bring awareness to the issue, while empowering girls, through screenings of âGirl Risingâ and other events.
The Lincoln University Offices of the President and Student Affairs, partnered with the United Way of Central Missouri to bring this important film to the campus and the community. Organizers say while much of the audience takes access to education for granted, the global problem is very real.
âWhile getting into an institution of higher education may seem like a tough road to travel, this is a choice which the young women here at Lincoln University and those in our surrounding community are afforded,â says Tammy Nobles, Director of Student Activities. âIn this space in time, it seems unfathomable that there are parts of the world where education doesnât reach girls, but it is a reality-a reality we must understand and work to change.â
A panel discussion will follow the screening.
