Responsibility for employees & society
Behind unmistakeable MAM baby articles there are unique MAM people, global networks and an active approach to diversity. Making the lives of children and parents easier is not just the aim of the MAM products, but also the motto extending across the funding of research and promoting the spread of knowledge as well as the social commitment of the company.
Since the company was founded in 1976, collaboration with the worlds of science and research has been a firm fixture at MAM. Thanks to this network of experts, it has been possible to regularly identify key issues when it comes to the health of babies and address them in the work that MAM does.
But MAM does not just share knowledge at the expert level; the company also supports children's and parents' support organisations all over the world, for example the children's cancer support organisation or hospitals in emerging and developing countries.
Dental health initiative
"Prevention before care" preventative project
Infant tooth decay affects the teeth just a short time after they come through and can result in complete destruction of the set of teeth. The forward-looking preventative project by the University Hospital of Jena has set itself the aim of preventing this form of tooth decay.
Since May 2012, MAM has taken charge of the patronage and funding for the project for the next two years.
More on the prevention project
SIDS initiative
MAM is committed globally to carrying out research and raising awareness of issues surrounding the health of babies. The company works not only with its network of experts from the worlds of science and medicine, but also in direct partnership with well-known organisations.
One example is MAM's support for the international group of researchers working on reducing the risk of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome).
MAM produces responsibly
For MAM, social responsibility with a spirit of entrepreneurship also means having respect for the people who work for MAM – and not just where strict laws and certifications dictate matters. The MAM Thaimed factory in Thailand, for example, has already received high praise for its exceptionally good working conditions.
Moreover, MAM takes steps to ensure the highest safety and quality standards are maintained in production and in the materials it chooses to use. It's no surprise then that MAM plastics are largely free of bisphenol A and are therefore particularly safe for babies.

The Forum > Politics and Current Events > UN No-Fly Zone over Libya
For those of you who haven't heard, the UN issued a no fly zone over Libya today. I'm curious to hear everyone's reactions to this. Good? Bad? Too late? Too soon? Discuss. |
eofpi said: Apparently a no-fly zone has rapidly morphed into attacking Gaddafi ourselves. Rather, we're just taking out his anti-air defenses, and the international community has stated that Gaddafi is not a target himself - i.e. we're only trying to protect civilians at this point. But I wouldn't be extremely surprised if what you're saying will be the situation quite soon. |
Enforcing the no-fly zone over Libya is a terrible excuse for attacking Gaddafi. They should just come out and say it. Gaddafi needs to be over thrown, but I'm worried about radicalist Muslims stealing the chance from the rebels. Really all of the unrest in those countries are now prone to attacks from terrorist groups. |
Actually, it's in the best interests of both the rebels and the terrorists for the terrorists to watch from the sidelines. The rebels, obviously, don't want to be conflated with terrorists, because that gets munitions with "Made in USA" stamped on them lobbed in their direction. It would also give the existing governments increased international legitimacy. But it's also in the terrorists' best interest to stay on the sidelines now. Why? Because then they can cozy up to whichever side wins (or operating with complete autonomy in a failed state like Somalia). Terrorists have no particular interest in governing, but they do have a strong interest in having a sympathetic government to provide cover for running training camps and other facilities. So who does benefit from apparent terrorism? The current governments, but only if they can successfully blame it on terrorists. A successfully faked terrorist attack will give the existing government increased international legitimacy and undercut any international support for the rebels. |

After starting Christmas Day with a Severe Thunderstorm Watch and later a Tornado Watch -- the weather is turning quiet for a whole 24(ish) hours before ramping right back up. Granted we probably won't see the severe weather we did in Madisonville, due to straight-line winds, and near Crockett, due to a brief tornado -- but we will have yet another chance at showers and thunderstorms.
Feeling the effects of our Christmas Day Cold Front
If you walked out early this morning -- to hit the grind stone after the holiday break or just got out to get a jump on returning gifts / cashing in on "after Christmas sales" -- then you know all too well that this was the coldest morning of the season (so far).
Lows fell into the upper 20s in many locations around 8am today. You may be thinking, "So what? We've been below freezing this season already!" True. But we haven't been below freezing with winds sustained at 15mph to 20mph, alongside frequent gusts upwards of 25mph. Those strong northwest winds helped make it FEEL LIKE the upper teens to low 20s when a wind chill was factored in. As I write this blog, we are still finding wind chills down between the low-to-mid 20s at 10am!
Here's an preliminary glance at some of the lows across the Brazos Valley this morning:
On to the Next One
No rest for the weary. After our powerhouse of an upper-level low continues to spread it's severe weather / snowy / blizzard-ry joy across the Eastern half of the United States, we are already eyeballing a developing system off the west.
You'll notice high cloudiness in the sky this afternoon. That is the signal from the atmosphere that changes are coming once again. Southerly winds return by Thursday afternoon along with mostly cloudy skies and higher moisture values. By Friday, our next cold front breaks it's way into the area -- bringing rain chances to the end of the week and dropping temperatures back below normal for the weekend.
Granted we aren't looking for the severe weather that we saw on Tuesday morning, but we will have a chance at a few isolated thunderstorms -- mainly in our eastern counties.
Temperature-wise, another freezing morning is in store Thursday followed by a chilly high in the 50s by the afternoon. Above freezing once again by Friday morning, but don't get used to it. Lows will be back down to freezing or below by Saturday morning.
Progressive Pattern to End 2012
Still need to hammer out the details, but it looks like we may be dealing with yet another upper-level systems swinging in off the Pacific by New Year's Eve or so. This morning's extended forecast models painted in a very soggy last day of 2012, with another cold front to start 2013 off on a chilly note. Again, timing and details will need to be ironed out -- but keep an eye on the forecast as we start making plans for New Year's Eve.

The Ten Commandments (1956)
Action/Adventure, Drama
Based on the Holy Scriptures, with additional dialogue by several other hands, The Ten Commandments was the last film directed by Cecil B. DeMille. The story relates the life of Moses, from the time he was discovered in the bullrushes as an infant by the pharoah's daughter, to his long, hard struggle to free the Hebrews from their slavery at the hands of the Egyptians. Moses (Charlton Heston) starts out in solid as Pharoah's adopted son (and a whiz at designing pyramids, dispensing such construction-site advice as Blood makes poor mortar), but when he discovers his true Hebrew heritage, he attempts to make life easier for his people. Banished by his jealous half-brother Rameses (Yul Brynner), Moses returns fully bearded to Pharoah's court, warning that he's had a message from God and that the Egyptians had better free the Hebrews post-haste if they know what's good for them. Only after the Deadly Plagues have decimated Egypt does Rameses give in. As the Hebrews reach the Red Sea, they discover that Rameses has gone back on his word and plans to have them all killed. But Moses rescues his people with a little Divine legerdemain by parting the Seas. Later, Moses is again confronted by God on Mt. Sinai, who delivers unto him the Ten Commandments. Meanwhile, the Hebrews, led by the duplicitous Dathan (Edward G. Robinson), are forgetting their religion and behaving like libertines. Where's your Moses now? brays Dathan in the manner of a Lower East Side gangster. He soon finds out. A remake of his 1923 silent film, DeMille's The Ten Commandments may not be the most subtle and sophisticated entertainment ever concocted, but it tells its story with a clarity and vitality that few Biblical scholars have ever been able to duplicate. It is very likely the most eventful 219 minutes ever recorded to film--and who's to say that Nefertiri (Anne Baxter) didn't make speeches like, Oh, Moses, Moses, you splendid, stubborn, adorable fool? ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

An environmentalist's dream boat, the sabani sailboats, have no motor. They are only powered by the wind and, the team, using paddles.
These boats, called sabani, will participate in the Mayor's Cup Sabani Race, an annual event, held in Itoman City, Okinawa, Japan. Photo taken November 10, 2013, the morning of the event.

A few updated pics
Well I added a few little details that added some to the beastly appearance of the 'burb haha:
First, I painted the rims and put my bull bar with the two 6" KC's on. The paint was a hell of a lot glossier than I expected, but I like it:
Here's what it looked like just like 2 day prior:
And then I put a new 3 3/8" tach in and I actually mounted it correctly. I put that in to replace the little like 2" tach that was velcro'd to the dash mat:
I think it looks much beastlier with the rims and bull bar on lol
Just thought I'd throw these up here for y'all to see, got another slow boring night hereCurrent truck: 1996 Ford 250, 7.3 Powerstroke diesel. Dana 60 SAS, stage 1 160cc injectors, T500 High Pressure Oil Pump, TS 6-position chip, full 4" exhaust, intake, 285 Falken Rocky Mountain AT's, boost/EGT/trans temp pillar gauges, etc...

More than half the people that apply online for various financial services abandon the process before completion, according to a new survey.
The study, by comScore, suggests many of these abandonments occur because consumers want to find out details about the services on offer, but that information is hidden behind the application process.

Just under 50% of online customers abandon their purchases during the checkout process - one of the biggest causes of lost revenue for online retailers.
While many of the reasons for this are beyond the control of the retailer, such as comparison shopping by users with no intent to buy, there is still much that can be done to reduce abandonment rates.

Any decision on a website's navigation is critical to usability, findability, accessibility and SEO. It can be difficult to undo if you select a poor design. So usable navigation is best established early on in a web project.
There are many different examples of main navigation systems, (i.e. the main method for accessing content in different site sections) but the 'three Cs' of convention, consistency and context are important whatever the design.

Groups with interests in the economy of the Great Lakes say Congress has failed to appropriate enough money to keep up with a growing backlog of dredging jobs needed to keep harbors clear for larger boats.
As a result, 17 million tons of sediment -- runoff from farms, mostly -- built up in harbors and other critical areas, said Glen Nekvasil, vice president of the Lake Carriers' Association, a trade association for commercial cargo interests.
Michigan Sen. Carl Levin has been pushing Congress to appropriate an unspent balance of nearly $7 billion in a trust fund designed to pay for such work, but to little avail so far -- much to the chagrin of interests along the lakeshore.
The fund takes in $1.6 billion a year, but only spends $800 million a year nationside, Nevkasil said.
"The money is there," he said. "They just need to use it."
Wasting Away
The concern about lake levels has even spread to Chicago's wastewater treatment program, where a spate of recent media coverage worried that declining lake levels could cause the heavily managed Chicago River to reverse its course and dump sewage into Lake Michigan.
Chicago's Metropolitan Water Reclamation District issued a press released Friday batting down the theory, saying it's just not possible for such a thing to happen.
But it could result in restrictions on river traffic as the agency works with the Corps to ensure problems with low oxygen levels in the river, the agency said in its release.
"We are not in a crisis at this time nor do we anticipate being in a crisis this year even if the drought should continue," the agency said.
Light loads
While the big deepwater ships that carry huge quantities of the nation's iron ore, coal and other goods are able to steam the deep waters of the Great Lakes as they always have, they must carry ever lighter loads to avoid grounding on the increasingly shallow harbors where they unload.
For instance, Nekvasil visited a ship Friday in Indiana Harbor, Indiana that's designed to carry 76,000 tons of iron ore. Because of low water levels and the harbors filing with silt, it can only carry 58,000 tons, he said.
As of now, light-loading is merely a matter of efficency, Nevkasil said. But that's in large part because the fragile economic recovery has not yet put a full burner under the nation's industry.
"We can meet demand now because the economy is not fully recovered," he said. "If demand for all of the cargo we move was at peak levels, we could not."
While the situation has not yet resulted in job losses among ship crews, Burkey said some of the businesses to which he's long delivered supplies are shutting down because the harbors are just too unreliable. Others are switching to truck and rail to bring supplies.
Some harbors also are planning to shut down, said Breederland, while others may not be able to accommodate some larger recreational and charter boats that bring tourists to the region when the weather warms.
That worries Steve Christian, the owner of Dinghy's restaurant in Frankfort. About 70 percent of his sales come during the summer fishing season.
"If they can't get into the harbor and go fish, they're not going to be coming into my restaurant and ordering food and beverages," he said.
Still he said, he's pretty sure things will return to normal in a few years.
"This has happened before in the living man's memory," he said. "It's cyclical, and we'll recover."

Scientists publish first analysis of post-spill sediment ecosystem impacts surrounding wellhead
CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas, Sept. 25, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Impacts to the deep sea, soft-sediment ecosystem in a large area surrounding the 2010 Deepwater Horizon wellhead blowout and subsequent oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico have been discovered. Because the deep-sea is cold, it could take decades to recover from the spill's impacts, according to a scientific paper reported in the online scientific journal PLoS One.
"While a lot of focus was put on the surface effects of the oil spill, we were surprised to find that much of the oil never left the deep sea," said Dr. Paul Montagna, Endowed Chair for Ecosystems and Modeling at the Harte Research Institute for Gulf of Mexico Studies, Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. "The unseen effects are so much larger than the seen effects."
The paper is the first to give comprehensive results of the spill's effect on deepwater communities at the base of the Gulf's food chain, in its soft-bottom muddy habitats; specifically looking at biological composition and chemicals at the same time at the same location.
"This is not yet a complete picture," said Cynthia Cooksey, NOAA's National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science lead scientist for the spring 2011 cruise to collect additional data from the sites sampled in fall 2010. "We are now in the process of analyzing data collected from a subsequent cruise in the spring of 2011. Those data will not be available for another year, but will also inform how we look at conditions over time."
"As the principal investigators, we were tasked with determining what impacts might have occurred to the sea floor from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill," said Montagna. "We developed an innovative approach to combine tried and true classical statistical techniques with state of the art mapping technologies to create a map of the footprint of the oil spill."

"Normally, when we investigate offshore drilling sites, we find pollution within 300 to 600 yards from the site," said Montagna. "This time it was nearly two miles from the wellhead, with identifiable impacts more than ten miles away. The effect on bottom of the vast underwater plume is something, which until now, no one was able to map. This study shows the devastating effect the spill had on the sea floor itself, and demonstrates the damage to important natural resources."
The oil spill and plume covered almost 360 square miles with the most severe reduction of biological abundance and biodiversity impacting an area about 9 square miles around the wellhead, and moderate effects seen 57 square miles around the wellhead.
"The area we are talking about is about the same temperature as your refrigerator, 39 degrees. It is dark with a slow metabolic rate. Given these deep-sea conditions, it is possible that recovery in the vicinity of the Deepwater Horizon blowout will take decades or longer," said Montagna.

Murder-suicide involving KC Chiefs' player Belcher stuns team
ABOVE PHOTO: Jovan Belcher
By Dave Skretta
Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, MO. -- It began like any other Saturday for the Kansas City Chiefs during the NFL season, their general manager and coach at work early to put final touches on this weekend's gameplan. Then they got a call to hurry to the parking lot.
The two men rushed through the glass doors of Chiefs headquarters and came face-to-face with linebacker Jovan Belcher, holding a handgun to his head.
Belcher had already killed his girlfriend and sped the short distance to Arrowhead Stadium, right past a security checkpoint guarding the entrance. Upon finding his bosses, Belcher thanked general manager Scott Pioli and head coach Romeo Crennel for giving him a chance in the NFL. Then he turned away and pulled the trigger.
The murder-suicide shocked a franchise that has been dealing with controversies now made trivial by comparison: eight consecutive losses, injuries too numerous to count, discontent among fans and the prospect that Pioli and Crennel could be fired at season's end.
Authorities did not release a possible motive while piecing together the case, other than to note that Belcher and his girlfriend, 22-year-old Kasandra M. Perkins, had been arguing frequently.
The two of them left behind a 3-month-old daughter, Zoey.
The Chiefs issued a statement that said their game Sunday afternoon against the Carolina Panthers would go on as scheduled, even as the franchise tried to come to grips with the awfulness of Belcher's death.
"The entire Chiefs family is deeply saddened by today's events, and our collective hearts are heavy with sympathy, thoughts and prayers for the families and friends affected by this unthinkable tragedy,'' Chiefs chairman Clark Hunt said in brief a statement.
A spokesman for the team told The Associated Press that Crennel plans to coach on Sunday.
"I can tell you that you have absolutely no idea what it's like to see someone kill themselves,'' said Kansas City Mayor Sly James, who spoke to Pioli shortly after the shootings.

"You can take your worst nightmare and put someone you know and love in that situation, and give them a gun and stand three feet away and watch them kill themselves. That's what it's like,'' James said. "It's unfathomable.''
Chiefs quarterback Brady Quinn told The Kansas City Star that when the team met later Saturday morning, Crennel broke the news to them.
"It was obviously tough for coach to have to tell us that,'' Quinn said. "He really wasn't able to finish talking to us. We got together and prayed and then we moved on.''
But Quinn said the team was so stunned, it was hard to digest what had happened.
"It's hard mostly because I keep thinking about what I could have done to stop this,'' he said. "I think everyone is wondering whether we would have done something to prevent this from happening.''
The 25-year-old Belcher was from West Babylon, N.Y., and played college football at Maine. He signed with the Chiefs as an undrafted free agent, made the team and hung around the past four years, eventually moving into the starting lineup. He played in all 11 games this season.
The NFL released a statement expressing sympathy and pledging "to provide assistance in any way that we can.'' The players' association has also been in touch with members of the Chiefs.
"We sincerely appreciate the expressions of sympathy and support we have received from so many in the Kansas City and NFL communities, and ask for continued prayers for the loved ones of those impacted,'' Hunt said. "We will continue to fully cooperate with the authorities and work to ensure that the appropriate counseling resources are available to all members of the organization.''
Police spokesman Darin Snapp also said Monday that Belcher's mother, who had been staying with the couple, was given temporary custody of the couple's 3-month-old daughter, Zoey.
Snapp said it was unclear Monday if the grandmother and baby were still in the Kansas City area or if they had returned to Belcher's home in West Babylon, N.Y.
Perkins originally was from Texas. Perkins' friend Brianne York, 21, said Sunday that Perkins met Belcher through her cousin, who is married to Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles.
"She treated Kasandra like a daughter,'' Kansas City police spokesman Darin Snapp said, adding that the woman had recently moved in with the couple, "probably to help out with the baby.''
Police then got a phone call from the Chiefs' training facility, and Belcher's description matched the suspect description from the initial address. Snapp said officers pulled into the practice facility parking lot in a matter of minutes, in time to witness the suicide.
"Pioli and Crennel and another coach or employee was standing outside and appeared to be talking to him,'' Snapp said. "The suspect began to walk in the opposite direction of the coaches and the officers and that's when they heard the gunshot. It appears he took his own life.''

The coaches told police they never felt in any danger.
"They said the player was actually thanking them for everything they'd done for him,'' Snapp said. "He was thanking them and everything. That's when he walked away and shot himself.''
Members of the Chiefs mostly laid low Saturday, but a few reacted on Twitter.
"I am devastated by this mornings events,'' Pro Bowl linebacker Tamba Hali wrote. "I want to send my thoughts and prayers out to everyone effected by this tragedy.''
A large group of Belcher's friends and relatives gathered Saturday at his boyhood home on Long Island.
His family turned the front yard into a shrine, with a large poster of Belcher, an array of his trophies, and jerseys and jackets from Kansas City, Maine and West Babylon High.
"He was a good, good person ... a family man. A loving guy,'' said family friend Ruben Marshall, who said he coached Belcher in youth football. "You couldn't be around a better person.''
At least 20 people gathered for a large group hug in the driveway.
"He was a tremendous player and all those things, and his accolades speak for themselves, but he lit up when he spoke about his mom, or when he hugged his family after games,'' said Dwayne Wilmot, who was Belcher's position coach at Maine and is now an assistant coach at Yale.
"It's difficult to talk about Jovan in the past tense,'' he told the AP. "There's going to be unanswered questions, the why's of this tragedy. It'll never be truly known to us.''
Wilmot said he'd stayed in touch with Belcher the past few years through social media.
"He was someone who took genuine pleasure in bringing happiness to others,'' Wilmot said. "I was so excited when he became a father, because I knew he'd be a great father.''
His girlfriend's Facebook page shows the couple smiling and holding the baby.
Belcher is the latest among several players and NFL retirees to die from self-inflicted gunshot wounds during the past few years. The death of star linebacker Junior Seau, who shot himself in the chest in at his California home last May, sent shockwaves around the league.
Seau's family, like those of other suicide victims, donated his brain tissue to medical authorities to determine if head injuries he sustained playing football might be linked to his death. That report has not been released, although an autopsy showed no underlying hemorrhaging or bruises on Seau's brain.
Belcher did not have an extensive injury history, though he was listed as having a head injury on a report from Nov. 11, 2009. Belcher played four days later against the Oakland Raiders.
Earlier this year, the NFL provided a grant to help establish an independently operated phone service that connects players, coaches, team officials and other staff with counselors trained to work through personal and emotional crises. The NFL Life Line is available 24 hours a day.
The season has been a massive disappointment for the Chiefs, who were expected to contend for the AFC West title. They're 1-10 and mired in an eight-game skid marked by injuries, poor play and fan upheaval. During the past few weeks there have been constant calls for Pioli and Crennel to be fired.
It's unknown how the Chiefs plan to pay tribute to Belcher during Sunday's game.
"His move to the NFL was in keeping with his dreams,'' said Jack Cosgrove, who coached Belcher at Maine. "This is an indescribably horrible tragedy.''

Movie reviews
The following are capsule reviews of movies recently reviewed by Catholic News Service.
A Thousand Words (DreamWorks)
A fast-talking literary agent (Eddie Murphy) finds his marriage (to Kerry Washington) and his career (assisted by Clark Duke) stymied when he gets on the wrong side of a guru (Cliff Curtis) and is cursed. According to the terms of the jinx, each word he speaks causes a leaf to fall from a tree that has magically sprouted in his backyard. Once the branches are bare, he'll die. Hilarity fails to ensue in director Brian Robbins' barren comedy, and when screenwriter Steve Koren's script turns serious, it mixes fruitful messages about marital fidelity and the importance of family life with shady New Age-style spirituality. Mature content, including scenes of aberrant sensuality within marriage and incidental gay characters, a few uses of profanity, at least one instance of the F-word, considerable crude and crass language, an obscene gesture. (A-III, PG-13)
The Deep Blue Sea (Music Box)
Writer-director Terence Davies' adaptation of Terence Rattigan's 1952 play charts the downward spiral of a lonely wife (Rachel Weisz) into adultery, divorce and suicide. Whenever caught between the devil and you-know-where, she consistently makes bad, selfish decisions. Her kind but distant husband (Simon Russell Beale) refuses to grant her a divorce, while her lover (Tom Hiddleston) --- with whom she cohabits, masquerading as a happily married couple --- is cruel and vindictive. Mature themes, including suicide and adultery, brief nudity, at least one use of profanity, a few crass references. (L, R)
The Hunger Games (Lionsgate)
Dystopian adventure tracking two teens (Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson) as they participate in the titular event, a televised survival tournament in which youthful combatants from oppressed outlying districts are forced to battle one another until only one remains alive for the entertainment of their society's decadent urban elite. Director and co-writer Gary Ross' screen version of the first volume in Suzanne Collins' best-selling trilogy of novels is an effective combination of epic spectacle and emotional drama during which humane values are pitted against Darwinian moral chaos. But sensibilities are not spared in the portrayal of the grim contest, so parents need to weigh carefully whether to allow targeted teens to attend. Possibly acceptable for mature adolescents. Considerable, sometimes gory, hand-to-hand and weapons violence and graphic images of bloody wounds. (A-III, PG-13)
Mirror Mirror (Relativity)
Director Tarsem Singh brings high camp style to his fresh live-action take on the Brothers Grimm fairy tale "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs." This go-round, the handsome prince (Armie Hammer) is the center of attention, pursued equally by the evil Queen (Julia Roberts) and her fairest-of-them-all stepdaughter (Lily Collins). When the Queen banishes her competition to the forest, Snow White decides to fight back. With the help of a ragtag band of diminutive warriors, she leads a crusade to gain her kingdom and claim her prince. The end result is a bit leaden and somewhat charmless for a children's fairy tale. But remarkable costumes and grand set pieces go a long way to compensate. Mild action violence, some rude humor, one semi-profane utterance. (A-II, PG)
21 Jump Street (Columbia)
Two bungling police partners (Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum) find their friendship strained when they're assigned to pose as high school students in an undercover operation designed to bust a drug ring. Co-directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller's big-screen version of the once-popular television series --- which first aired on Fox in 1987 --- starts out as a good-hearted, albeit relentlessly foul-mouthed, buddy comedy. But, as the vulgarities continue to fly, the desire to be outrageous leads to scenes of gruesome violence and debased sexuality. Intensely gory gun violence, strong sexual content, including graphically depicted aberrant and nonmarital activity as well as brief rear nudity, drug use, irreverent humor, about a half-dozen uses of profanity, pervasive rough and crude language. (O, R)
We Have a Pope ("Habemus Papam") (Sundance Selects)
Gently satiric seriocomedy about a good-hearted but timid cardinal (Michel Piccoli) who reluctantly accepts his election as pope, but then, overcome by the prospective burden of the office, balks before giving his first public blessing. As the world waits, an eminent but nonbelieving psychiatrist (Nanni Moretti) tries to treat the new pontiff, only to have his patient escape the Vatican and seek some form of guidance by wandering the streets of Rome and mingling with the Eternal City's ordinary citizens. Moretti, who also directed and co-wrote, avoids any mean-spirited attack on the church, though he does dabble in such silliness as cardinals competing against each other in a volleyball tournament. He garners some amusement from the contrast between the shrink's secular assumptions and the faith-based attitudes prevailing at the Holy See as well from a range of human foibles. But by the time his protagonist goes on the lam, Moretti has clearly run out of inspiration. In Italian. Subtitles. Much ecclesiastically themed humor that some may find distasteful, at least one use of the F-word, a fleeting reference to sexuality. (L, no MPAA rating)
Wrath of the Titans (Warner Bros.)
Stilted, tedious mythology sequel in which the conflicted demigod Perseus (Sam Worthington) is forced to abandon his quiet life among mortals and intervene in a war that pits his father Zeus (Liam Neeson) against his uncle Hades (Ralph Fiennes) and his half-brother Ares (Edgar Ramirez). Perseus' allies in the struggle include an earthly warrior queen (Rosamund Pike), Poseidon's shifty son Agenor (Toby Kebbell) and the exiled smithy to the gods, Hephaestus (Bill Nighy). Boulders fly and monsters die in director Jonathan Liebesman's 3-D follow-up to 2010's "Clash of the Titans," itself a remake of the 1981 cult hit of the same title. But the effects- and action-driven proceedings are all spectacle and no substance. The pagan theologizing to which some of the pompous dialogue is devoted, moreover, may confuse the impressionable. Possibly acceptable for older teens. Pagan religious themes; constant, occasionally bloody, action violence; at least one mildly sexual joke; and a single crass term. (A-III, PG-13)
Catholic News Service classifications: A-I ---- general patronage; A-II ---- adults and adolescents; A-III ---- adults; L ---- limited adult audience, films whose problematic content many adults would find troubling; O ---- morally offensive. Full-length reviews: www.catholicnews.com/movies.htm.

Django Software Foundation Releases Django 1.2
1.2 offers improved security and permissions, may not be completely backwards-compatible.
The Django Foundation, creators of the popular Python-based Web framework of the same name, announced the release of Django 1.2 and with it come several new features. Django 1.2 now supports multiple database connections in a single instance. It also features "vastly" improved Cross-Site Request Forgery protection and hooks for permissions for anonymous users, improved username flexibility, and object-level permissions.
In addition, Django 1.2 supports both anonymous session-based messaging and cookie-based messaging for authenticated users.
Upgrading to 1.2 also ushers in some backwards incompatibility. Python 2.3 is no longer supported in Django 1.2. The improved Cross-Site Request Forgery protection framework is compatible with the previous system, but users of the old system won't be affected until Django 1.4, when the older famework is removed.
Authors of custom template tags should be advised that the internals have changed and are now subject to new rules. The LazyObject utility has been modified to support the Python introspection method, to avoid name clashes.
Django 1.2 is licensed under BSD and can be found at djangoproject.com/download/. With full release notes here.

Evaluation of FAO's Regional and Sub Regional Offices for Africa
Over the past two decades, FAO has been undertaking a progressive process of decentralization aimed at strengthening the capacity of FAO's decentralized structures in order to maximize the Organization's impact at country level. At its 108th session in October 2011, the FAO Programme Committee gave a high priority to the evaluation of FAO's decentralized structures with a particular emphasis on how the work of the regional and sub-regional structures is integrated within FAO and with the activities of other UN organizations. As the third in the series, FAO's Office of Evaluation (OED) is undertaking an evaluation of FAO's decentralized structures in Africa for presentation to the Programme Committee in October 2013. The main purpose of the evaluation is to provide FAO's governing bodies and the Secretariat with an independent and evidence-based assessment of the capacity of decentralized offices at regional and sub-regional levels to efficiently and effectively provide services to member states, through an analysis of the role, functions and work undertaken by these decentralized structures. This includes an assessment of the capacity of the decentralized structures to assume responsibilities and perform functions and will necessarily involve looking at upstream (HQ/SSC) and downstream (Country Office) levels as they also serve as essential links for the provision of services to member countries.
