This Chart Shows Which Plants Grow Well Together (and Which Don't)
Companion planting is one of the best techniques to grow a better garden and naturally repel pests
Companion planting is one of the best techniques to grow a better garden and naturally repel pests
Around here, the harvest season is on and most people are pulling up their gardens, but there's one thing you should do now to prep for next year: Give your soil a little "garden food" so it's full of nutrients when you start planting next year. Grab a plastic bag; all you need are some fallen leaves.
The weather is slowly starting to cool off around here, which means many people are thinking about pulling up their gardens and moving their plants to a warmer spot, but our friends at the Old World Garden Farms point out that right now is a great time to plant one of nature's most delicious crops: Garlic.
If you're leaving town for a while but don't want your plants to wither while you're gone, you can ask a friend to stop by and water them, or you can build a system that dispenses just the right amount of water for each plant, automatically. All you need are some plastic baggies, a needle, and some thread.
Say hello to Margaret Roach, a leading garden writer and creator of the acclaimed blog A Way to Garden. After 15 years at Martha Stewart Living (and prior to that, a decade at both Newsday and The New York Times), Margaret wrote And I Shall Have Some Peace There, a memoir about leaving the corporate hustle to live…
If you love mushrooms, growing your own doesn't have to be a hassle. You can buy a kit like the kind we've featured, or try growing them in your fridge, but this method uses an old laundry basket and will yield more mushrooms without taking up valuable fridge space.
You can rid your garden of pests naturally using a number of clever methods, but when you need to deter insects in real time a caffeine spray can do the trick without harming your plants. Jenny Sigler, writing for healthy living site Spark People, shares her recipe:
If you're considering growing some fruits or veggies in your backyard, on your patio, or even indoors now that the weather is starting to turn a little warmer (around here, anyway), now's the time to plan out what you want to grow. Our friends at Old World Garden Farms have a suggestion too: plan your garden with…

Flowers are one of the most common Valentine's Day gifts but hard to choose well. Additionally, you often have to pick them up in advance and ensure you don't kill them while you wait to give them to your significant other. Fortunately, a few tips and a little know-how can prevent a floral disaster this Thursday.

The Government came under fresh attack over its controversial plans to privatise the Royal Mail ahead of an expected announcement on the sell off.
Details of the next stage of the process are expected to be revealed.
The National Federation of SubPostmasters (NFSP) called on the Government to safeguard the future of thousands of post offices by halting the sale. The NFSP said a failure to protect post offices would amount to a "reckless gamble" with the future of the post office network.
General Secretary George Thomson said: "I am extremely disappointed and concerned that the Government is pressing ahead with a plan that will undoubtedly jeopardise the future of thousands of post offices.
"We simply have not had the promised new government work that needs to be delivered before the sale of Royal Mail and which would safeguard the future survival of an independent Post Office. We are now calling on the Government to halt the sale until we can be sure that new work is forthcoming. We are also urging ministers to retain a share in Royal Mail to ensure government has the ability to protect the interests of post offices and their customers, which are already under serious threat.
"Failure to do so will amount to a reckless gamble and risk thousands of post office closures that will rip the heart out of communities across the country."
Nick Wells, chief executive of TNT Post, said: "Royal Mail needs access to capital for its modernisation plans and this is the route it has chosen. However, privatising a monopoly is bad for consumers, bad for business and bad for UK plc.
"Royal Mail should be open to the pressures of competition and no longer enjoy the Government gift of a 20% cost advantage over its competition. A level playing field of competition will allow better services to be developed and new jobs to be created."
The Communication Workers Union is holding a meeting of local officials today, which is due to be addressed by Royal Mail chief executive Moya Greene.
The union is planning to ballot its members for strikes over pay, jobs and other issues linked to privatisation.

SemanticWiki mini-series Background (1TLU)
The Semantic Wiki mini-series a 6-month mini-series comprising Talks, Panel Discussions and Online Discourse. The series is co-organized by FZI Karlsruhe, Mayo Clinic, Ontolog, RPI Tetherless World Constellation and Salzburg Research, Austria. This represents a collaborative effort between members from academia, research, software engineering, semantic web and ontology communities. The 6-month mini-series intends to bring together developers, administrators and users of semantic wikis, and provide a platform where they can conveniently share ideas and insights. Through a series of (mainly virtual) talks, panel discussions, online discourse and even face-to-face meetings, participants will survey the state-of-the-art in semantic wiki technology and get exposure to exemplary use cases and applications. Together, they will study trends, challenges and the outlook for semantic wikis, and explore opportunities for collaboration in the very promising technology, approach or philosophy which people has labeled "semantic wiki." (1TLV)
This series of virtual events will dovetail into the face-to-face workshop: "Social Semantic Web: Where Web 2.0 Meets Web 3.0" at the AAAI Spring Symposium (March 23-25, 2009 at Stanford, California, USA - see: http://tw.rpi.edu/sss09 ). (1TLW)

Recently, my favorite were the Spider-Man movie scores that played in the opening credits, heck I cried during the Spider-Man 3 opening credits, just looked awesome. But that changed when I saw the Avengers. The score played in the beginning of the credits, this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhvuU8r0EHk
Makes me feel motivated to do anything. It fit so well in the movie too. What's your favorite movie score? Or am I the only one who pays attention to those things?
I wish The Amazing Spider-Man had a good score, but it looks like it doesn't. :(

The Devil Makes Three
Starts: Dec 29 2012 - 9:00pm
Ends: Dec 29 2012 - 11:00pm
Like the Violent Femmes before them, Santa Cruz's the Devil Makes Three infuse their country-bluegrass swing with a raucous punk spirit. A popular group on the festival circuit, the trio spins its odes to Tennessee whiskey and brawling with acoustic guitar, banjo, and stand-up bass — an economical set-up that makes for some surprisingly danceable music. Lead singer Pete Bernhard's voice is a little rough around the edges, but the group's harmonies go down smooth. Too restless to play the typical bluegrass venues and too musically sophisticated for your average bar band, Devil Makes Three are a rare breed: wild traditionalists.

Folks, what do you think the most important scholarly non-fiction, non-autobiographical books on the ACW are? Not necessarily your favorite books, but the most influential. I made a list of 10 off the top of my head in no particular order... any thoughts? 1) Battle Cry of Freedom- James McPherson 2) The Life of Johnny Reb/Billy Yank- Bell I. Wiley 3) Embattled Courage- Gerald Linderman 4) Mothers of Invention- Drew Faust 5) Why the South Lost the Civil War- Beringer, Hattaway, Jones, Still 6) How the North Won- Hattaway, Jones 7) The Sable Arm- Dudley Cornish 8) Battle Tactics of the Civil War- Paddy Griffith 9) What they Fought For- James McPherson 10) On the Threshold of Freedom- Thomas Mohr |

That's a pretty wide-open question Mark. Maybe it's semantics, but important in what way? Depending how you define it, there could be multiple answers. Most influential as far as sparking interest in the uninterested? A case could be made for the old American Heritage book that kindled the interest of so many kids. Most influential as an overall narrative? Maybe Shelby Foote's trilogy. In-depth battle book? Coddington perhaps. Etc., etc. Again, depends what you mean by important/influential. |

From what others say about how their Civil War interest was sparked I would agree with Javal that the Golden Book of the Civil War is for one generation of people the most important . Those that were born in the 60's all seem to have had an experience with this book as young people. I was older so missed the book til just recently when I chose the book in a book give away. It is an impressive work. Shelby Foote has influenced many others . I have yet to read all three volumes although was given a set by my sister in law when I started my Civil War journey. My interest in the War was not started though a book it was a battlefield I discovered on a cross country drive after I retired from teaching. One in the Western Theater, Pea Ridge. I then went on to Wilson's Creek. Here I discovered the book that really grabbed my attention , Actually two books. I asked the park ranger if these two books were good. He said they were classics of Civil War writing . My most important books were Bell Wiley's John Reb, and Bill Yank. I refer to these two books many times to answer questions . They tell me about the common soldier , my main interest in the War. I have read many more books since then . Each book adds to my knowledge of the war. I have not read many of the great over view books like Battle Cry of Freedom mainly I have read more detailed books of men , thoughts or campaigns and biographies . I do agree Embattled Courage is an important book . I would list books by Symonds, Holtzer and McPherson as important , Cunninghams book on Shiloh to me was important. It gave me new insights to the battle , one of my favorite places to visit . I am still a Western Theater person . That is where I found the Civil War and where my heart is . Iam sure others who are Eastern Theater would add books on Gettysburg , I have not read many on that battle as I tend to be interested in the less known ones. Susan |

I figured it would be a pretty open ended question. I guess "what books have changed the way you thought about the War?" would have been a better way to ask it. Hope that clarifies things. Thanks for the response Susan, "The Life of Billy Yank/Johnny Reb" were some of the first books I read about the Soldiers. I think there are some better ones out there now about the common Soldier, but those two were definetly the ones that influenced my thinking the most. Mark |

For my generation (a bit older than y'all's) it would be Bruce Catton's books, which turned a dull school book story into a fascinating one! ____________________ "While we live we will cherish, protect and defend her." |

Bruce Catton's Army of the Potomac trilogy were some of the first history books that my Dad and I read together. He was a superb story teller! Thanks for the feedback! Mark |

8) Battle Tactics of the Civil War- Paddy Griffith I think this is a good choice in that it forced many to rethink what they thought they knew about how the war was fought. Most influential may well be the Catton American Heritage book in that it is the one book so many can point to as sparking an interest inlearning more. |

Inside Lacrosse Pictures of the Week: 3/30/2010
And we're back for another visually thrilling edition of Inside Lacrosse's Pictures of the Week. I boosted the picture load a bit for this week, not sure what's too many or what's not enough, but I figured it's easy enough to scroll over a picture if you aren't feeling it. I hit my keyboard's down arrow well over 1,000 times to find these beauties, so I hope you're pleased with my efforts.

Look up professional in Wiktionary, the free dictionary. |
This article is written like a personal reflection or opinion essay rather than an encyclopedic description of the subject. (December 2013) |
A qualified professional is someone who has completed a professional degree in one or more profession. The term also describes the standards of education and training that prepare members of the profession with the particular knowledge and skills necessary to perform the role of that profession. In addition, most professionals are subject to strict codes of conduct enshrining rigorous ethical and moral obligations. Professional standards of practice and ethics for a particular field are typically agreed upon and maintained through widely recognized professional associations. Some definitions of professional limit this term to those professions that serve some important aspect of public interest [1] and the general good of society.[2][3]
In some cultures, the term is used as shorthand to describe a particular social stratum of well-educated workers who enjoy considerable work autonomy and who are commonly engaged in creative and intellectually challenging work.[4][5][6][7]
The main criteria for professionalism includes the following:
- Expert and specialized knowledge in field which one is practising professionally.[8]
- Excellent manual/practical and literary skills in relation to profession.[9]
- High quality work in (examples): creations, products, services, presentations, consultancy, primary/other research, administrative, marketing, photography or other work endeavours.
- A high standard of professional ethics, behaviour and work activities while carrying out one's profession (as an employee, self-employed person, career, enterprise, business, company, or partnership/associate/colleague, etc.). The professional owes a higher duty to a client, often a privilege of confidentiality, as well as a duty not to abandon a genuine client just because he or she may not be able to pay or remunerate the professional. Often the professional is required to put the interest of the client ahead of his own interests.
- Reasonable work morale and motivation. Having interest and desire to do a job well as holding positive attitude towards the profession are important elements in attaining a high level of professionalism.
- Appropriate treatment of relationships with colleagues. Consideration should be shown to elderly, junior or inexperienced colleagues, as well as those with special needs. An example must be set to perpetuate the attitude of one's business without doing it harm.
- A professional is an expert who is a master in a specific type of profession.
In narrow usage, not all expertise is considered a profession. Although sometimes referred to as professions, occupations such as skilled construction and maintenance work are more generally thought of as trades or crafts. The completion of an apprenticeship is generally associated with skilled labor or trades such as carpenter, electrician, mason, painter, plumber and other similar occupations. A related distinction would be that a professional does mainly mental or administrative work, as opposed to engaging in physical work.
Although professional training appears to be ideologically neutral, it may be biased towards those with higher class backgrounds and a formal education.[citation needed]. In his 2000 book, Disciplined Minds: A Critical Look at Salaried Professionals and the Soul-Battering System that Shapes Their Lives, Jeff Schmidt observes that qualified professionals are less creative and diverse in their opinions and habits than non-professionals, which he attributes to the subtle indoctrination and filtering which accompanies the process of professional training. His evidence is both qualitative and quantitative, including professional examinations, industry statistics and personal accounts of trainees and professionals.[10] A study on journalistic professionalism argued that professionalism is a combination of two factors, secondary socialization of journalists in the workplace and the fetishization of journalistic norms and standards.[11] In this way, undesirable traits in new employees can be weeded out, and remaining employees are free to cynically criticize their professional norms as long as they keep working and following them. The latter concept adapted from philosopher Slavoj Žižek and his concept of ideology.[12]
The etymology and historical meaning of the term professional seems to indicate an individual whose philosophy and habits have been conditioned by a professor.[citation needed] So, a professional is the follower of a professor. Plumbers are therefore not considered professionals. While they certainly make a living doing what they do, with a particular expertise, and with a certain expectation of manners, plumbers do not acquire their skills through a professor, or even through a professional professor. They learn from private firms that distribute the knowledge, or they learn from friendly association with a master plumber.

Legal PR Case study: specialist wills, trusts and probate solicitors Lane-Smith & Shindler
Thursday, April 5th, 2012PR is still a mystery to many law firms, perhaps interested in what PR can do but unsure because it is seen as hard to measure, is wishy washy or they have not considered it because they do not have the information to make a judgement. With this in mind I have written this legal PR case study (well effective PR techniques in a legal setting) to show how public relations works:
Lane-Smith & Shindler, specialist private client wills, trust & probate solicitors
Malcolm McLaren and the issue of wills and probate outside the UK
This technique uses current news and issues to gain coverage for clients, it represents about a day's work:
Malcolm McLaren passed away leaving a contested will. His son challenged the will on the basis of legal jurisdiction (it was drawn up in Switzerland) as well McLaren's mental state and his failure to make reasonable financial provision for him under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975.
A small piece was spotted about this in The Times, a few short paragraphs that were easy to miss. It was used then as a way to broach the subject, owing to its topicality, to journalists in the following newspapers and magazines:
Daily Mail
Expat Money Channel
Wealth Briefing for high networth individuals (you will need to register to view)
A Place in the Sun (companion title to popular TV series)
Swiss Lump Sum Tax – online and offline covered
Lane-Smith & Shindler had a Zurich based office and were keen to warn high networth individuals looking to move to Switzerland to take advantage of the Swiss Lump Sum Tax that they should be aware of the less generous tax regime that was coming in the following year.
While it was key to tell hard copy press, it was also key to dominate online searches.
Around the end of 2010 careful targeting of media ensured that anyone looking for information on the Swiss Lump Sum Tax on Google could not fail to notice that nearly half of the sites listed for the first two pages originated material from Law-Smith & Shindler. (The position has changed over 12 months, so it is important to keep good content flowing if you want to maintain position).
Moreover the Lane-Smith & Shindler blog and Artisan blog ensured that a presence was maintained to complement the online wealth magazines.
Magazines such as Investor Today and Wealth Briefing ran the press releases online, the latter using an in-depth article with links to the Lane-Smith & Shindler blog to help ranking status.
The value of these initiatives easily runs into thousands of pounds (for the advertising costs of gaining the coverage).
They are both about a day's PR work.
The contract with Lane-Smith & Shindler came to an end owing to a merger with DWF and hence the in-house marketing department of DWF took over the PR.
The firm was very happy with the work and results and gave this testimonial:
"Rob has really helped our PR effort and clearly knows a lot of the right people in publishing. Unlike other firms we have used in the past he makes most of the running himself rather than expecting us to do the work."
Paul Davies partner at Lane-Smith & Shindler

Twickenham still top dogs - just
11:00am Friday 29th June 2012 in Sport
Twickenham held on to their position at the top of Middlesex County League Division Two on Saturday – but only just.
Skipper Carlos Nunes' men host third-placed Shepherd's Bush tomorrow, having been forced to bat out for a losing draw on the Green by second-placed Richmond last week.
Visiting skipper Kevin Barrett (56) and Dain Moreton (55) provided the foundations for Richmond to post an imposing 242-5 in an innings affected by rain.
Jean-Pierre Cronje (65) and Tom Huysinga (60) got Twickenham's reply off to the perfect start with an unbeaten 109-run partnership Nunes' outfit reached 130-1 before that swiftly became 159-7 in the face of 5-27 from Shiva Prasad, leaving Matt Bendelow and Parminder Singh to bat out for the draw.
In the Premier Division, form-team Teddington were knocked off the summit after a shock defeat to bottom-club Brondesbury saw them slip to second.
Joe Auston top scored with 37 as skipper James Wade's men were dismissed for a paultry 132.
Duncan Wood's 3-32 helped reduce the hosts to 78-7 before Brondesbury edged home to thier first win of the season.
Teddington will look to bounce straight back at mid-table Finchley this week as they try to get their bid back on track.
*titleTwickenham batsman Tom Guy broke the habit of a lifetime after winning a newspaper competition earlier this month.
Guy hit a six off the last ball – meaning it counted double – off his Last Man Stands "super over" at the Kia Oval.
He and partner Sam Saheh hit 15 off their five balls to stand a chance of winning a VIP trip to Friends Life T20 finals day.
"I enjoyed everything. I've never hit a six before but now I've hit a 12, so I've just had a great day," he said.
*Twickenham second team batsman Stuart Amos was the star of the show at Barnes on Saturday, smashing an unbeaten century to see the Ts return to winning ways.
Amos was well supported by the enigmatic Warwick Paull (50), as the batters made light work of knocking off 198.
Before then, debutant Jeremy Keates (4-45) made impressive inroads into the Barnes batting line up, before Dan Hough chipped in with 4-24 to wrap things up.

You guys have the most precious and beautiful babies! Ahhh. If it wasn't for my family friend's three week old baby, I'd be having massive baby fever. But luckily I get my fix from him.
I'd ask mom if I could post a picture, but I know she's not entirely comfortable with him being on the internet just yet.
He's incredibly cute, and looking more and more like a person each day.
Keep sharing please!

Dust might
Published: April 30, 2008
Polvo's closure last December was a sad loss for Pilsen's gallery scene. But cofounder Miguel Cortez says antena, his new project space around the corner, should pick up where Polvo—which took its name from the Spanish word for dust—left off. In antena's first show ("What makes a man start fires?") Noelle Mason uses cultural phenomena such as Superman's X-ray vision to investigate America's violent and security-obsessed culture. It runs through May 24.

The water pump may develop a coolant leak resulting in an engine overheating condition.
Problem with your car? See what our experts say or submit your own.
The water pump may develop a coolant leak resulting in an engine overheating condition.
The engine vacuum hose to the MAP sensor may crack resulting in a vacuum leak causing the engine to run rough and/or stall.
The upper intake manifold gasket and/or a PCV vacuum lines/hoses can develop vacuum leaks with age. This type of leak can result in a higher that normal or rough idle.
The ignition module or crankshaft position sensor may fail causing the engine to die and not restart. Diagnoses will be necessary to determine if the module or crank sensor is causing the no start condition.
The timing chain tensioner and guides are prone to wear and may develop an abnormal noise, requiring replacement.
The fuel pump may fail causing engine to stall and not restart.
The rubber section of an automatic transmission cooler line may develop a fluid leak . In some cases the leaking section of hose can be replaced. In others, the complete cooler line must be replaced to correct this concern.
The 2.3L 4 cylinder engine can be prone to head gasket failure. This can result in coolant loss and engine overheating.
Body: A dirty throttle body may cause a lower than normal engine idle resulting in a stalling condition. A stalling condition may also result if an idle learn procedure is not performed if the battery goes dead or is disconnected.
The oxygen sensor can fail causing Check Engine Light illumination and the engine to run rich (burn more fuel than normal).
The high pressure power steering hose will commonly leak fluid; it should be replaced.
The engine temperature sensor wire for the engine temperature gauge, or warning light, may touch the rear exhaust manifold causing a short to ground causing erratic operation of the temperature gauge or warning light.
Fuel injectors can short-circuit electrically causing a rougher than normal idle and reduced performance.

Four-star offensive lineman Ryan Ward gave his verbal commitment to the Iowa Hawkeyes last Thursday. So far, the 6-foot-6, 270-pound Ward has shied away from talking publicly about his decision much, but according to his coach at Providence Catholic High School, Mark Coglianese, it should be a great fit."I think that Iowa's going to be a great fit for him," said Mark Coglianese. "The Iowa football program is known for having a good offensive line and he's a big, physical offensive lineman. Plus, he's a Big Ten kid. His dad played at Illinois and his brother plays for Northwestern and now he'll be at Iowa, so it's a Big Ten family." ...More... To continue reading this article you must be a member.

Can You be a Mummy Blogger and a Feminist?
Writing about making jam and homemade baby food and wearing high heels because they are something that you enjoy and something that brings you pleasure is a good thing but that doesn't necessarily make it a feminist choice. This doesn't mean there is something inherently wrong with making jam or wearing high heels but these are 'choices' that are made within patriarchal constraints.

Six Months After The Asia Tsunami Disaster: MSF Operations & Financial OverviewJune 21, 2005
Six months have passed since an enormous tsunami hit parts of South Asia, leaving behind a horrifying trail of destruction and suffering. Within days of the December 26, 2004 disaster, Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) teams began working alongside national efforts to provide assistance to individuals in need of medical care, food, clean water, shelter, and other basic necessities. The majority of MSF's work focused on hard-hit communities in Indonesia and Sri Lanka, though staff provided assistance to people in Thailand and India too. Initial exploratory teams assessed needs in Malaysia, Myanmar, Bangladesh, and Somalia as well, but did not find any serious unmet medical needs. Today, MSF has reoriented its work in Indonesia and has closed its tsunami-related programs in other countries except India. 93 international staff and over 650 national staff continue to work in tsunami-affected areas in Indonesia (89 international, 637 national staff) and India (4 international, 29 national staff). As an emergency medical organization, MSF believes is not the best suited to engage in long-term development programs or large-scale rehabilitation and reconstruction which are still required in many of the tsunami-affected areas. MSF continues to support people affected by the tsunami in Indonesia and India, mainly by providing psychosocial care. At the same time MSF is continuing to help communities in Aceh, who, as a result of the ongoing conflict, have little or no access to basic quality care. 1. SIX MONTHS OPERATIONS OVERVIEWStart-up chronology:
According to the Indonesian government, to date, over 126,002 bodies have been found and over 93,638 people remain missing in Aceh. There are an estimated 514, 150 displaced persons.
An MSF team of 8 people, including 3 nurses and 2 doctors arrived in Banda Aceh, the regional capital, on Dec 28. They brought with them 3.5 metric tons of medical and relief materials. They immediately set up a medical clinic in the city and began assessments and relief operations in Banda Aceh and, by helicopter, in locations along the western and northeastern coasts. Nearly 200 metric tons of additional medical, water/sanitation and relief materials as well as dozens of additional MSF personnel (doctors, nurses, psychologists, logisticians, water & sanitation experts) arrived in Aceh the week following the tsunami. During the first week following the tsunami, MSF:
Up and down the coast MSF ran mobile clinics, evacuated by helicopter those in urgent need of care, ran counselling sessions and donated food, tarpaulins and medical equipment. By the second week MSF was supporting two other district hospitals in Meulaboh and Sigli and launched further distributions of non-food items down the west coast including family tents, kitchen kits, tools etc. Teams were also sent to assess the situation in Simeulue island and the Banyak Archipelago. Days after another undersea earthquake hit the island of Nias on March 28, 2005, MSF teams distributed tents and relief items in the island's northeastern district of Tuhenberua. MSF continued to reinforce its activities, particularly psychological support. A tetanus vaccination campaign was launched in response to the high number of cases coming forward.
Mental health is considered one of the greatest ongoing needs in Aceh and almost all MSF programs have a mental health component. Water and sanitation in displaced camps are also a concern, particularly during heavy rains. MSF has handed over the majority of its water & sanitation projects but continues to monitor for disease outbreaks. MSF is now looking to provide basic health care in a number of areas where people have little or no access to it as a result of the ongoing conflict. MSF is presently running medical (•) and non-medical (ø) programs in 6 districts: Banda Aceh, Aceh Barat, Pidie, Aceh Utara, Aceh Barat Daya, Simeulue: BANDA ACEH:
ACEH BARAT(Lamno):
• 1 health clinic (rehabilitated) • Surgery • 2 pre-fabricated health units • Mobile clinic • Vaccination (measles and other) • TB ø Water & sanitation ø Distribution of non-food items ø Training Ministry of Health staff (Meulaboh):
• Mental health care • Vaccination ø Water & sanitation ø Distribution of non-food items ø Training Ministry of Health staff PIDIE DISTRICT(Sigli):
• 3 mobile clinics to remote areas • 3 health clinics • Support to network of clinics • Mental health care in the trauma center of Sigli ACEH UTARA(Lhokseumawe)
• Vaccination • Malaria assessment & preparation ø Water & sanitation ø Distribution of non-food items ø Training Ministry of Health staff ACEH BARAT DAYA
• Tetanus & measles vaccination ø Distribution of non-food items ø House construction SIMEULUE
• Measles vaccination • Epidemiological surveillance & early warning systems ø Water & sanitation ø Rehabilitation of temporary health centers
Medical careTotal medical consultations: approx 28,000 8 Primary health care clinics DistributionSince its arrival in Aceh at the end of December, MSF has distributed tens of thousands of non-food items to people who lost everything in the tsunami. This has included hygiene kits, kitchen sets, tents and blankets – anything people needed until shelter was provided. MSF continues to distribute relocation/construction kits and has also been involved in low scale boat building and house construction. Mental health careMSF found mental health to be one of the most important needs. Teams have offered care to people suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) as a result of the tsunami and possibly also of the ongoing conflict.
Vaccination campaignsVaccination campaigns focusing on measles and tetanus were organized in seven districts covering more than 120,000 people. Measles vaccination campaigns are still planned for Sigli camps. Vitamin A was distributed during the measles vaccination campaigns, and in some locations a deworming was organized for all children over age 2. Water & sanitationClean water was provided to displaced families through a combination of water trucking, bladders, well cleaning and construction. Hundreds of latrines were built, waste disposal was organised for clinics and hospitals. Many of these activities have been handed over. Early warning system & epidemiological surveillanceAs water and sanitation conditions in camps are still quite poor, MSF mobile teams are monitoring them for disease outbreaks (cholera, measles, malaria, dengue fever). Supplies are on stand-by in Banda Aceh and Jakarta and Ministry of Health staff is being trained to recognize and report cases. MSF is also providing hygiene education.
MSF provided emergency medical aid through mobile clinics and existing medical facilities and distributed relief goods and drinkable water during the first weeks after the tsunami. In a second phase, MSF tried to support some of the most vulnerable people by clearing land parcels so that they could rebuild their homes, providing drinkable water and sanitation facilities, cleaning and reconstructing wells and latrines, distributing fishing nets and tool kits (in Batticaloa region) and building semi-permanent houses (for 180 families in the Tangalla region). In the same area of the southern coast, MSF started an outpatient clinic and set up shelters for local homeless families. In the nearby town of Matara, an MSF team assisted more than 3,000 displaced people and started mobile medical clinics. An outpatient clinic was also opened in nearby Hambantoa. Once emergency medical needs were met, MSF began organizing a network of local doctors to provide psychosocial support to the many people traumatized by the disaster and its consequences. In Ampara and Killinochi, MSF provided psychosocial support through the local non-governmental organization Shade till the end of April.
Because of quick government and community mobilization, emergency medical needs caused by the tsunami were mostly covered in this country. The principal problem for many communities was psychological trauma, with some people suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder. In response, MSF began offering psychological support in Cuddalore and Nagappatinam districts by training NGO community volunteers as counselors and psychosocial assistants. In Tamil Nadu, in southern India, MSF trained medical students to spot people with health care problems or psychological trauma who were living in displaced persons camps so that they could be helped more quickly and referred to needed services. MSF also runs a mobile clinic. In addition to giving medical consultations, the mobile team also identifies the most severely traumatized survivors of the tsunami. A team of 4 international and 29 national staff continues to provide mental health care in Cuddalore, Nagappatinam and Tamil Nadu as well as operate a mobile medical clinic in Tamil Nadu.
In general, the Thai emergency response was found to be fast and well-organized. MSF decided to help improve the situation for Burmese migrant workers affected by the tsunami. More than 50,000 Burmese migrants are registered as workers in six provinces along the western coast of southern Thailand, but as many as 500,000 are actually thought to live in the area. An estimated 5,000 Burmese were missing after the tsunami struck the coast and many more found themselves in a precarious situation having lost their papers or job after the tourist industry collapsed. MSF is now working with a local NGO to set up public health workshops to inform migrants from different parts of Phang Nga province about basic health care and sanitation and to help them gain access to needed health care. 2. SIX MONTHS FINANCIAL OVERVIEWIn an extraordinary outpouring of support, MSF sections worldwide received 105 million Euros in donations to provide emergency relief to people affected by the tsunami. By the end of April 2005, MSF had spent 17.9 million Euros on tsunami-related operations in South Asia. In total the organisation will most likely spend 24.5 million Euro for activities in the regions affected by the tsunami in 2004 and 2005. MSF Operational Budget MSF Expenses (end of April) The generosity of hundreds of thousands of MSF donors worldwide made it possible for MSF teams to begin assessing the needs and providing medical relief in the most-affected areas of Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and other countries within 48 hours of the disaster. Less than a week after the tsunami, estimating that we had already received sufficient funds for our foreseen emergency activities, MSF began asking donors to stop giving donations for MSF's response to this particular emergency. Instead they were encouraged to support our work providing medical care in other emergencies and ongoing conflicts such as the Democratic Republic of Congo, Somalia or the Darfur region of Sudan. MSF offices around the world also began contacting individuals requesting their permission to use their funds to support MSF's work in emergencies elsewhere in the world. This process is still ongoing, but so far an overwhelming majority of donors have accepted that we use their donations elsewhere. 52% of the funds initially received for the emergency can now be used to support MSF's other emergency medical programs around the world. MSF seeks to derestrict a further 23.5% of the donations and 1% has been refunded on request. Fundraising situation (end of May) MSF is extremely grateful for the unprecedented surge of spontaneous donations we received following the tsunami disaster and will continue to use this money to provide medical and psychosocial care in the regions affected by the tsunami. At the same time, we are heartened by the trust our supporters have placed in us in allowing us to use their funds where they are needed most. We believe that being open and transparent with our donors about how we use their funds is essential, as it is their support that allows us to alleviate the suffering of the most vulnerable in the worst conflicts and disasters around the world.

UP man convicted in federal case involving explosives get 4 years, 3 months in prison
John Lechner is farmer, builder from Sault Ste. Marie who was convicted in June
An Upper Peninsula man convicted of illegally transporting and storing explosive materials has been sentenced to more than four years in prison.
John Lechner is a farmer and builder from Sault Ste. Marie and was convicted in June.
He wasn't charged with plotting to blow up the mixture. But in a recorded conversation, he told an informant that he'd become a mercenary "when the people decide to take the government back."
Lechner was sentenced to four years, three months in prison during an appearance Thursday in Marquette federal court.
Co-defendant Ken Kassab of Brimley was acquitted of illegally transporting fuel oil and ammonium nitrate and another charge. He'd struck a plea deal with the government but changed his mind and decided to go to trial.
