Agenda for the September NPCA Celebration in Washington
Dear Group Leaders,
This email is to let you know about the ongoing 45th Anniversary activities and our remaining plans.
As agreed by the Board l ast July, NPCAs approach to the 45th Anniversary has been to organize decentralized activities enabling many more members of the Peace Corps community to participate.
So far, we have organized six Open Houses in conjunction with Peace Corps (Brattleboro, Phoenix, Austin, Omaha, Miami, and Portland) and will organize other four before July (New York, Dearborn, Milwaukee and Baltimore). These Open Houses have involved nearly 1,000 participants.
Last week, NPCA participated in Peace Corpss Anniversary Celebration on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC and at the JFK Library in Boston, which was organized with the assistance of the Boston Area RPCV Group. These events had more than 700 participants.
We are also working with affiliates who want to organize their own Anniversary events. So far, we have helped with nine other events.
This weekend we are organizing a series of Anniversary-related events for Directors Circle members. These will include participating in an event at Peace Corps with President Alejandro Toledo of Peru, an event at the residence of the Indonesian Ambassador, which will include Director Vasquez and the last Peace Corps Country Director in Indonesia, a special tour of the National Archives collection of Peace Corps material, as well as briefings on Peace Corps and NPCA and a 45th Anniversary Dinner.
We know many groups are making plans to organize reunions and other events in Washington, D.C. in mid-September. To help with your planning, here is information on the Anniversary-related and other activities that NPCA is facilitating.
Thursday, September 14, 8am-7pm
Meet with Congress. We will be organizing opportunities to meet with congressional offices on Peace Corps and other development issues on Thursday, September 14th. For those who can come early, we will hold a preparatory training on the evening of Wednesday, September 13th. Thursday will be a full day of activities, including a morning review of activities, advocacy meetings throughout the day, a debriefing an d advocacy program open forum, followed by a social hour/celebration. We thank the Returned Peace Corps Volunteers of Madison, Wisconsin for their generous contribution in support of our September Advocacy Day activities.
Friday, September 15, 9am-6pm
Group Leaders Forum
Annual General Meeting
Board Meeting
Saturday, September 16, 12-4pm
Anniversary Picnic
We understand that many of you are interesting in organizing capacity-building and other workshops. We will be glad to help facilitate those efforts, which should be coordinated with Jim Mueller, the Group Leaders Coordinator. Jim can be reached at jandkmueller@.... So, NPCA can assist in this please cc: Stephanie Jowers on these emails. Her email is Stephanie@....
In response to feedback from other events, this schedule provides ample time for groups to organize their own meetings, reunions, and gala s. Please post all events to the NPCA website calendar, so that we can keep the entire community informed of all activities. If you send your event information to Erica@..., she will create a master list and post it on the NPCAs website, www.peacecorpsconnect.org.
We will provide further information about these upcoming events as these our plans develop.
With best wishes,
Kevin F. F. Quigley

Promises, Promises
The trouble with making promises is that eventually, you find yourself tempted to break them.
And several members of Congress who got themselves into a same-sex tax marriage with Grover Norquist – the anti-tax lobbyist – are now flirting with breaking that vow, now that it turns out to be more like a suicide pact, requiring them to leap from a certain cliff.
And the first step to breaking a vow is to come up with noble reasons.
Sen. Bob Corker of Tennessee talked of courage:
"This is a very easy thing to do technically. What it takes is political courage," he said.
Rep. Peter King of New York invoked Ronald Reagan:
"If Reagan and O'Neill could do it, Obama and Boehner can do it."
Sen. Saxby Chambliss pointed out that he signed the pledge a long time ago:
"Times have changed significantly and I care more about this country than I do about a 20-year-old pledge," Chambliss said.
Did I hear him include a little patriotism there? I think so:
"I care too much about my country. I care a lot more about it than I do Grover Norquist," he said.
Yeah! Who is this Grover Norquist anyway?
"Grover Norquist has no plan to pay this debt down. His plan says you continue to add to this debt," Chambliss said.
You know, he almost makes it sound like Grover Norquist kind of hates America.
Norquist himself is unruffled. The conservative tax crusader says most Republicans will stand firm, and President Obama will eventually have to extend the tax cuts as-is. We'll know in about five weeks.


text: Cape Town – A women's rights group's advert posted on YouTube is revealing how apathetic South Africans can be towards domestic violence within their communities, the group says.The People Opposing Women Abuse (POWA) "social experiment" records events that take place at a Johannesbsurg middle class townhouse complex one night. First a rowdy resident plays drums and gets a number of complaints from residents. Then he plays a recording of a screaming woman getting beaten by a man. No one complains, the police do not show up to indicate that someone has at least alerted them."It shows how people react to domestic violence within their communities," Powa director Nonhlanhla Mokoena told News24."That apathy or disregard for the woman's screams could lead to death," she said.But many people still see domestic violence as a private matter and even allege that is what the police say in response to public complaints about domestic violence.Apathy unjustifiableOne user (UKWilfreD68) commenting on the video expressed this sentiment:"I wouldn't ring the police or get involved, you know why? Cos if I do A: The police say, 'It's a domestic and you should stay out of it' and B: The last time I tried to help a woman in this situation she turned on me and told me to stay out of it 'cos it was a domestic and I shouldn't be interfering." (sic)Mokoena said this approach was unjustifiable."It could be an issue of fear," she said referring to women who ask people not to interfere when their partners abuse them.She said it was also important to call the police no matter what their reaction so they can be held accountable as well."As a community we must show that we don't want domestic violence. If the perpetrator knows the community is going to come out and the police are held accountable, he might think more about his behaviour," she said.All affectedShe said it was also important to highlight that it was not only poor communities that were affected by the domestic violence and apathy to the phenomenon. "We are trying to show that everyone is affected; the educated, the uneducated, rich, poor, middle class, all colours and creeds," she said.She said although they worked mostly with women from poor backgrounds, they had started seeing results from campaigns targeting middle class women, including this one and another they are running as part of the storyline on popular local soapie Generations."We are getting more calls from middleclass women. They tell us that they identify with Khethiwe (Generation's character)," she said.According to statistics cited in the video, 1 400 women die at the hands of their partners in South Africa every year.Apart from estimates, domestic violence abuse statistics are difficult to compile because of under reporting and unreliable data collection systems at police stations. August 1 marks the start of Women's Month in the country with Woman's Day celebrated on August 9.

Despite the fact that we put a lot of efforts in sun protection, hydration, and anti-oxidation to prevent our skin from damage, nevertheless working pressure, insufficient sleep, jetlag or aging could still cause imbalance / reduction of these specific molecules to make our skin look dull, dry, loose and/or wrinkled.

The unique formula of Dermaheal series combines a variety of oligopeptides, growth factors, vitamin C and natural herbs blend together in an advanced molecule delivery system for your skin to absorb those precious ingredients smoothly.

Last week I read a grant proposal for funding to start a maple syrup production operation to generate profits that would be used to support programs that benefit children and families in need. Theoretically, I love this proposal, but I keep getting stuck in the income projections in the business plan. Projected revenue is based on the sticker price of $20 per 12-oz. bottle of syrup. Ouch. This would have to be the Mercedes of syrups. They argue that they can sell the syrup at this price because it will be beautifully packaged with a unique, heartwarming story about the history of sugar maples. A story with that sticker price would have to be so heartwarming that once it warms the heart, the heart stays warmed, through snow, sleet, dark-of-night, and environmental meltdown.
I am so dedicated to eating high-quality food that I will actually pay a fair amount for organic, chemical-free maple syrup, but even I don't pay more than $7 for a 12-oz. bottle. The only circumstance under which I would pay $20 for a 12-oz. bottle of maple syrup would be if world peace came in the box with the syrup. Although, I confess, the idea of getting a terrific story with the syrup would definitely sweeten (couldn't resist) the deal. If every bottle of syrup were to contain the tale of the centuries-old history of sugar maple trees, complete with dragons, leprechauns, good fairies (only they would spell it faerries to sound olden), and a brilliant and funny girl of lowly birth on an epic quest, then I would probably pay $10 for it. If the story also included the astonishing and mysterious retreat into seclusion of a bombastic, racist, egocentric, violent, ignorant presidential candidate (with a self-proclaimed shockingly large member, larger than anyone else's member), then I might actually pay $20.
I almost never pay $20 for a full-length hardcover novel, even if it comes with food. I get my books from the library (thanks ever so much Ben Franklin) or the monthly library used book sale (for 50¢ each), or I borrow them from friends. Perhaps I would consider paying $20 for a bottle of syrup if the accompanying syrup story wins the National Book Award and the hold queue at the library for the syrup story is more than 200 people long. However, correct me if I'm wrong, I don't think a bottle of syrup is eligible for the National Book Award.
Many factors come into play in people's decisions about what is a reasonable price for a food item. We often say "I can't afford that," but that's not exactly accurate. A lot of the time when we say "I can't afford that" what we mean is "I have other priorities." We constantly make choices. Some people pay $10 a day for a fancy coffee but they won't buy organic apples because they are too expensive. That's a decision about priorities. I choose to spend more money on food than most people because it's important to me to eat real, clean food (organic, nontoxic, chemical-free), but I do balance that with cost. In order to buy the beautiful, healthy food I love, I'm willing to spend less money on other things, such as, for instance, clothes, flowering plants, travel, and brand new hardcover novels. I have no problem paying $3 for an organic mango that has a luminous golden glow. I want to put that mango into my body so it becomes part of my cell structure. I would invest my money in buying that mango rather than, say, buying shoes.
Perhaps the maple syrup folks are actually onto something. This could be a tectonic shift in marketing. Marking up food prices because the food comes with a dynamite story particularly intrigues me because that combines two of my greatest loves. I might actually pay to hear the stories food has to tell. I would pay quite a bit for oranges that tell the meaning of life or cucumbers that come with a visionary description of the seventh generation that reveals that they are OK. Hmm. Interesting. I imagine that food producers could jack up the prices on high-quality food by increasing the value of the product with narrative add-ons. Asparagus that comes with tales of the hidden messages of the deep forest. "Beans that speak the truth." "The voices of the ancestors in every egg." "Sauerkraut with god in every bite." Bananas with a synopsis of War and Peace. Strawberries packaged with One Hundred Years of Solitude. This kale is crispy and tangy, has strong antioxidant properties that prevent cancer, and it whispers Shakespeare's sonnets. These flights of fancy are the unfortunate consequence of a former English graduate student becoming a nutritionist and then reading maple syrup grant proposals.
The add-on marketing strategy has broader implications. Imagine selling a jar of coconut oil that can tap dance, a piece of cheese that will do your workout routine for you at the gym, or a salad that sings The Song of the Dirt (yeah, I made that song up). Honestly, I have never met an organic blueberry I didn't like, and all blueberries have to do is continue to taste delicious for me to pay dearly for them. I whirl organic blueberries in my breakfast smoothie every morning, and they energize me for the day. That's just me. Perhaps a blueberry marketeer would need to find something more than great taste and good health to sell blueberries to other people. Which leads me to my image for today's reflection. Caption? How about, "What does a blueberry have to do around here to get some attention?"

Black Box / Raining Sovereignity
'Sovereignty' is a wonderful slogan to wave about in order to arouse national pride and in order to promote esprit de corps in times of crisis. But is Israel truly a sovereign country?
There was a moment when I was about to burst out laughing at the sight of the bunch of functionaries who gathered in Ashkelon on Tuesday evening to gaze at a bent remnant of the Qassam rocket that landed on their city and uprooted a number of grayish red paving blocks of the type called Ackerstein. This is all the damage the Qassam did in Ashkelon, but judging from the frenetic activity in the television news broadcasts, which swooped down on the twisted tin as though it were a great treasure, it appeared as though at least an atom bomb had fallen.
And one could see how, gradually, at the pace of Channel 1 military correspondent Amir Bar Shalom's questions, the gray bureaucratic face of the mayor changed as he metamorphosed into the heroic municipal leader under threat of mass destruction. Yes, they will have to fortify the schools. And they will have to prepare for what is to come in cooperation with the defense establishment. O fortunate Ashkelon: You have emerged from your anonymity and you are joining the list of cities that suffer from "terror."
The masses of verbiage that was heard all of Tuesday evening about the three damaged paving stones of Ashkelon is instructive mostly with respect to the bleak psychological condition of this nation, which sees "damage to our sovereignty" in every piece of metal that is thrown onto it from the neighbors' yard. And there will always be the cunning politician who will give this seemingly legal confirmation, like Justice Minister Haim Ramon, who was seen on Tuesday's "New Evening" show (Channel 1, 17:000), preaching to Dan Margalit this populist nectar: "No country would agree to such an attack on its sovereignty," or "As a sovereign state we have the right to defend ourselves from attacks on our sovereignty."
"Sovereignty" is a wonderful slogan to wave about in order to arouse national pride and in order to promote esprit de corps in times of crisis. But is Israel truly a sovereign country? And what is the nature of this "sovereignty?"
A small, marginal and even somewhat disgusting proof that our sovereignty is an entirely fluid thing was given that same evening from the lawn of the American ambassador's residence in Herzliya Pituah. There the Who's Who of the Jewish people celebrated the Fourth of July, America's Independence Day. Because Ayala Hasson, the political correspondent of Channel 1, staked out her claim there, as she spoke the cameras moved over the elegant Israeli crowd sipping cocktails with that American pseudo-casualness while awaiting the remarks of the ambassador who, according to Hasson's predictions, would be speaking about the abducted soldier in Gaza and the Qassams. As though if he did not speak about the subject, it would be a sign that America is concealing its face from our people. And no one sees the contradiction between this crazy anxiety about a foreign ambassador's utterance and the pretension to "sovereignty."
Further evidence of the baselessness of the statement that "no sovereign state would agree to such an attack on its citizens" can be found in the Israel Defense Forces' partial entry into the territory of Gaza. And indeed from the moment Israel appoints itself the decider, according to its own convenience, of where its sovereignty begins, and enters and pulls out and expands and contracts the borders of its sovereignty, it renders the concept of its own sovereignty meaningless. And Haim Ramon can shout until tomorrow that we will not be silent about "damage to our sovereignty."
The carnival has happened
The gay pride carnival in Jerusalem slated for the month of August was in effect already celebrated this week, in two stages, one crazier than the other. The first carnival was on Tuesday morning in the meeting room of the Knesset Interior Committee, when all kinds of bearded religious clerics wearing strange headgear, black and embroidered in gold, from the three monotheistic religions, joined together in a wondrous way to demand the cancellation of the gay pride parade in Jerusalem, the holy city. The greatest expansion of this Purim-like event was given by the Channel 2 News (20:00). There, a representative of Islam was heard stuttering in embarrassment that "among us there aren't things like that, not of this magnitude," and his remarks elicited a wave of laugher in the audience. And the representative of the Vatican in a French or Italian accent, rode in after him with typical self-righteousness (let us but remember the plague of pedophilia in the Catholic Church). And the representatives of Meretz, supporters of the parade, were no less ridiculous, when they offered King David, whose love for Jonathan was dearer to him than the love of women, as an argument in favor of holding the parade. Which sent the ultra-Orthodox representative Shraga Gafni out of his mind, and he yelled at them from the side like a crane flapping her wings in pride at her Jewishness. A scene of great gaiety.
But all this was nothing compared to the fracas on the "Politika" show, on which two minutes after the discussion of the gay pride parade began (Channel 1, Tuesday, 21:45) the participants went completely off the rails. Menachem Ben proposed holding a parade in Jerusalem of men who like to sleep with goats and MK Nissim Ze'ev of Shas proposed holding a parade of swine on the Temple Mount, and the weird representative of Islam asserted that homosexuality is a disease and whoever feels a need to do it, should do it in secret. The two representatives of the gays - one of them the person who was stabbed and wounded by an ultra-Orthodox chap as he marched in the gay pride parade - joined in the screaming and it was not really possible to follow the arguments of any of the participants, even the enlightened ones.
Because this is the nature of a carnival: It is wild, chaotic and dripping with sweat and spit and it releases the violence that is inside everyone. On second thought, this is just one more reason why it is nevertheless worth holding the parade in Jerusalem: It will force all of those who are opposed to it to take to the streets.

Acoustic folk rules the Lounge
Rockland — Rock City Café, 316 Main St., will present live music Friday and Saturday, Sept. 12 and 13, from 7 to 9 p.m.
Rock City Cafe's Velvet Lounge series will present Heather Styka Friday night. Chicago-bred, Maine-based songwriter Styka's tunes have a vintage familiarity that draws inspiration from folk and Tin Pan Alley sounds, but her image-heavy lyrics are as fresh, smart and unexpected as they are hummable. With training as a poet and an actor, Styka is equal parts wordsmith and performer. In addition to numerous songwriting awards, her 2011 Atlantis release "Lifeboats" received critical praise, hitting No. 3 on the national folk charts. Her distinctive guitar style, soulful voice and quirky sense of humor make her performances feel as candid as late night conversation and as comfortable as coming home. Styka's latest album, "While This Planet Spins Beneath Our Feet," is due to be released this month
Folk trio Meteora will play the velvet Lounge Saturday evening. Kat Logan and Jim Loney are a singer/songwriter couple from Friendship. Logan has a crystal clear voice and has performed folk, country and blues music throughout New England for the past 20 years. Loney has performed Delta blues and R&B for many years; he also plays Cuban son music and has played with Primo Cubano. They both play guitar and banjo, along with Logan on piano/accordion and Loney on percussion. Will Brown of Lincolnville plays guitar, laud, banjo and percussion, as well as sprints on the cornet. He has recorded with Gordon Bok, Anne Dodson, Cindy Kallet and Grey Larsen over many years. Logan also has recorded with Bok; both she and Brown were on the 2009 Grammy-nominated album ""Singing Through The Hard Times — A Tribute to Utah Phillips."
Meteora is known for tight three part harmonies, as well as their original songs and new arrangements of more traditional songs and tunes.
Rock City's lunch service extends until closing on music nights. For more information on this and other events happening at the coffeebar/cafe, call 594-4123 or find it on Facebook.

Eric Abidal is reportedly growing increasingly frustrated at Barcelona's delay in making clear his future at the club beyond the summer.
The Frenchman, who has recently battled back from a liver transplant to play again, is out of contract in the summer, and his agent says no new offer as arrived yet.
"Abidal is starting to get disappointed by the time it is taking the club," commented David Venditelli to RAC1 this week.
"For him it is increasingly difficult to accept, not if he will continue with the club or not, but the wait itself.
"Barca have offered for Abidal to take an honourable position in the club, but he is still looking for a sporting solution to his situation.
"There is no reason for the club to have to tell Abidal to continue for another season."

It's been about a month since power-hungry billionaire Lex Luthor — well, a futuristic version of Luthor — unleashed scads of superpowers on the unsuspecting citizens of Metropolis and Gotham, turning everyday folks like you and me into superheroes and supervillains in order to bombard Brainiac, the intergalactic baddie intent on invading Earth.
That explains why Superman and company have hundreds of new friends and foes in "DC Universe Online" (Sony, for PlayStation 3, $59.99, and PC, $49.99), a massively multiplayer online game inviting players to craft their own characters to do battle in the virtual Metropolis and Gotham, as well as other places peeped over the past 70 years in DC Comics.
Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman provide newbie superheroes with their origins and inaugural missions, while those who side with the villains choose among the Joker, Circe or Luthor as their evil mentor. They're not alone. For every marquee name, scads of esoteric characters, like sorcerer Doctor Fate and egg-shaped entity Chang Tzu, pop up in the game.
Such star power obviously sets "DC Universe Online" apart from "City of Heroes" and "Champions Online," the other major online superhero games. There's nothing quite like soaring above The Daily Planet or Wayne Enterprises with your cape flapping in the wind. Of course, this is ultimately an action game, and luckily there's plenty of fast-paced endeavors.
Superpowers stem from one of six fields — fire, ice, gadgets, mental, nature and sorcery — while an array of weapons, such as guns and swords, provide other ways to fight. The combat is crisp, and the smorgasbord of abilities is deep, providing players with plenty of options to create either completely unique characters or clones of preexisting DC legends.
The missions themselves aren't any different from other online games, ranging from tedious (rescue a certain number of bystanders, smash a particular amount of robots) to creative (become a gorilla and destroy a science lab, take down a giant demon in downtown Metropolis). Investigations and races offer a welcome respite from the often repetitive action.
It would be a dynamic experience if everything else about "DC Universe Online" wasn't so buggy. During my time in Metropolis and Gotham, I witnessed citizens climbing the walls, servers going down without warning and the game crashing my system when I battled inside the Batcave. To make matters worse, the interface and chat system are wonky.
Teaming up and communicating with other players is tough, especially in the PS3 edition. It's entirely possible to plow through most missions without working alongside other heroes and villains, an unfortunate venture given that this is a massively multiplayer game with hundreds of other players working to achieve the same goals as your superpowered avatar.
Such significant downfalls mean that "DC Universe Online" isn't likely to be the next great massively multiplayer game, though die-hard DC Comics fans who have longed to fight alongside the likes of The Flash and Green Lantern and against villains such as Bizarro and Mr. Freeze will probably be delighted with this interactive excursion.
Rating: Two stars out of four.
'DC Universe Online' not superpowered enough
It's been about a month since power-hungry billionaire Lex Luthor — well, a futuristic version of Luthor — unleashed scads of superpowers on the unsuspecting citizens of Metropolis and Gotham, turning everyday folks like you and me into superheroes and supervillains in order to bombard Brainiac, the intergalactic baddie intent on invading Earth.

Arab League summit venue row
A row has been brewing over the venue for the next Arab League summit which was scheduled to be held in the Lebanese capital, Beirut, in March.
Libya, one of the 22 member states of the Arab League, says it will not attend if the meeting is held in Lebanon, because of the "lack of necessary conditions, particularly with regard to security".
The Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi said he would like the summit to be held where all Arab leaders could attend, and suggested the meeting be held in, Cairo, the seat of the Arab League. He said the states of Qatar, Djibouti and Sudan support this.
Lost leader
Relations between predominantly Sunni Libya and Lebanon soured after Shia Muslims in Lebanon accused Tripoli of being behind the mysterious disappearance of one of their most prominent leaders, Imam Musa Sadr, during a 1978 visit to Libya.
Imam Sadr was never proclaimed dead. Libyan authorities say he travelled on to Italy - a claim the Italian authorities denied.
Now Shia groups in Lebanon have threatened Gaddafi if he makes an appearance in Beirut.
The Shia Sadr Brigades have warned that "we will surprise everybody if Colonel Muammar Gaddafi attends the summit in Beirut before the settlement of the issue of Imam Musa Sadr".
Beirut chosen
While Arab League secretary general, Amr Musa, agreed that "nobody can ignore statements and positions which included threats to kill the Libyan leader," he went on to announce that the summit would be held in Beirut.
In a recent interview with the Cairo paper, Al-Ahram, Colonel Gaddafi's spokesman, Ali al-Turayki said: "Imam Al-Sadr was a friend of Libya. We regard him as one of the greatest resistance fighters against Zionism. What benefit would we gain from liquidating him?"
"We said from the beginning that we were prepared to launch joint investigations with the Lebanese authorities, Syria, Iran, or any other party, to find the truth and close that file," he remarked.
The Lebanese president, Emile Lahoud, said Lebanon is "determined to hold the summit on its own soil".
On Monday, he dispatched eight cabinet ministers "to invite Arab heads of states, including Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi" to the summit.
BBC Monitoring, based in Caversham in southern England, selects and translates information from radio, television, press, news agencies and the Internet from 150 countries in more than 70 languages.
