Fisher Price KidTough portable DVR pictures and hands-on
Vegas isn't really a kid friendly place. Sure, there is a guy that's dressed as Mickey Mouse that will quite happily pose for a quick photo with youngsters for a couple of bucks but he also smells quite heavily of whiskey and is apparently more than able to sort party-goers out with "disco-mints".
But that doesn't mean that CES has forgotten the little 'uns. Far from it, there's plenty of new kit for the kids on show including Fisher Price's KidTough portable DVR.
Packing 512MB of RAM that is upgradeable with microSD (up to 32GB), the KidTough sits in a dock with video-in ports and will record any action displayed on your TV. So, it can grab action from a set-top box, a DVD or Blu-ray or just direct from the aerial.
There is an option to set recording times up to 24 hours in advance and you'll get 2 hours playback from a 4 hour charge. It is charging as it's docked, so it should be ready to go once you've loaded it up with kid friendly content.
The display is a 3.5-inch QVGA (320x240) touchscreen one that, whilst not the sharpest screen on show at CES by any stretch of the imagination, did seem to hold up well in the unnatural light of a Vegas hotel convention centre.
The buttons on board are nice and big and would be easy for even a very young child to control and the sound is okay out of the stereo speakers. You can, of course, plug some headphones in as well.
For $150 we think this is a cracking little device. It goes on sale in the States in May - it should hit the UK later on this year.

Letter: Give me a break
Diane Corcelli, Bonita Springs
Give me a break
I was amused by the April 29 "Sick of it" article about the mythical war on women.
Despite the combined efforts of the Collier County Democratic Club, Occupy Naples and Planned Parenthood, last Saturday's rally on Pine Ridge Road and U.S. 41 succeeded in attracting only 60 or 70 people!
That's only slightly larger than the line waiting to use the ladies rest room during intermission at the Naples Philharmonic Center for the Arts.
Apparently, the vast majority of people realize that the so-called "war" exists only in the minds of radical politicians such as Nancy Pelosi and Debbie Wasserman Schultz. It is what they must do to divert attention away from President Barack Obama's abysmal record of the past three-and-a-half years.
That's what I'm really sick of!

Hi! I've not been playing long (played a bit when I was a kid, and enjoying playing again now, despite the odd moment of head-banging stupidity). Had a game against a higher-ranked opponent, and I thought that towards the end I had what should have been a game-winning advantage. Would anyone like to tell me where I went wrong (either in the end game or earlier - I know there are a few foul-ups in there).
I've added notes through the game, as best I can remember. I figure that at turn 40 I should have a decisive advantage, but fluffed it. And 49.b5 was a mistake I'm still kicking myself over.
NM Bonesy1116
I won't comment on every single little thing.
13. Bxc2, forget the knight on d6, trap it, attack it, whatever. I'll just take the pawn. White's development stinks.
20...g5 is a bad move. 21.gxf4 gives you very crappy pawns on the kingside. Anything but this.
40... At this point, you can win a pawn back and it appears like you should win.
47....Nxh3+ now you must be winning.
49...Kd6 looks like one way. The endgame is a bit tricky though.
46 Nxh3+ seems better...? But I am not certain of it.
Thanks, Bonesy1116. I didn't really think about pawn structure from 20.g5, but now you mention it it seems obvious that that would make a mess of things.
Thanks jonnin. I wasn't sure about the rook swap, especially with a pawn race going on, but I figured that the knight advantage would count for more with the rooks off the board. I was also a bit worried that I couldn't defend my pawns from a rook as easily as he could, as mine were in a terrible arrangement and distant from the King.
It is difficult to defend against multiple pawns by just having a knight. You must play precisely to win. It's a better decision to keep the rooks on the board as they are better defenders and can counterattack very easily.
I think 54... f6 looks like a mistake. 54... Nxb4 55. d6 a5 might work for a tricky draw.

To Carlos Loaiza, committed to the jazz
Who are the ones that we are lifted? Philosophers, artists and the saints: Here are the true men,
men who are separated from the animal kingdom.
Nietzsche, Inactuales Considerations
I write from the tremor of bliss, since epilepsy of ecstasy. Since the implosion of the heart and the seizure of the spirit. I rose up in the word you want to appoint the outrageousness of the drunkenness. On the night of the past thirty-one of December of the year two thousand thirteen, while the deafening blasts of the ballots announced the end of the year and the beginning of a new year, Ornette Coleman aullaba, booty, in the musical production that bears the name "Twins", published in 1960
I write from the tremor of bliss, since epilepsy of ecstasy. Since the implosion of the heart and the seizure of the spirit. I rose up in the word you want to appoint the outrageousness of the drunkenness. On the night of the past thirty-one of December of the year two thousand thirteen, while the deafening blasts of the ballots announced the end of the year and the beginning of a new year, Ornette Coleman aullaba, booty, in the musical production that bears the name "Twins", published in 1960. A shamelessly sublime for the ears conventional and orthodox. A cry of rebellion against society comfortable bourgeois in their habits. A music praises anti-conformist, even for the lovers of the more 'checkerboard' jazz.
The Prometheus Ornette divesting its fire on the night of slumber decembrino, in a small apartment and ordenadisimo whose main attraction, in the center, is a pictorial box of enormous size, with the face of Sonny Rollins staring at, supported by the huge mouth of a wind instrument. Rectangular space so neat as its owner, who has in the wall on the left a photo collage with prominent figures of jazz, located in a corner of the conventional, sanctimonious and apostolic population of Rionegro, in the middle of Antioquia, Colombia.
Memorable night, I say, in the middle of the carnivalesque theater end of the year that masks, subtly, the tedium to the almanac with your sarcastic and silent guillotine. They had already gone through this dial(1) Charles Tayler, the child screams his whoop; Eric Dolphy Kids and his clarinet insane; Sonny Rollins in its opacity bright, an introduction 'supernatural' in "Wapango"; the thorny bandoneon of Astor Piazzolla…and some good beers adobando the crispy fish/tilapia. Ornette Coleman is, in its meaning more provocative, innovative and precursor, the Baudelaire of jazz. If with the French poet is born modern poetry, with Coleman is born the mockery more wonderful that has ever existed in the history of western music: free jazz.
Before your music I'm still an apprentice (from that distant day to listen to him in a white cassette, stolen from the bookstore where i worked. It off immediately. I thought it would be disastrous ), but at the same time, a be happy to receive his eternal teaching aesthetics.
The personality of the musician texano is perfectly portrayed in which made the essayist Andres Holguin of Parisian writer: "Is the lucidity in the middle of the delirium of their senses, it is a intelligence amazingly clear that looks serenely crazed dance their passions. His violent personality and tender, nourished by absentia" (2). In the excellent box-set "Beauty is a rare thing" combines the ideas of maverick Ornette Coleman in six compact disc, compilation carried out in 1993 and that meets all their recordings for the mythical Atlantic seal of the decade of the 60's and part of the 70 ( "The shape of Jazz to Come"; "Change of the Century"; "This is our Music"; Free Jazz; "Ornette"; Ornette on Tenor"; "The Art of The Inprovisers"; "Twins"; "To whom who keeps a record" ).
Listen to each one of these topics (and there are fifty seven) is to participate in a ritual of vertigo and purification, vigorous and fruitful madness. Ornette said: "There is a music that has the quality to preserve life". There is another way to understand their spiritual strength, his courage artistic? Baudelaire appointed him to his own way: "Et ce monde un étrange rendait une musique" (3). His singing does not cease to be a flood, a hurricane refreshing, and in turn, moving. The phrasing and the lyricism of his saxophone buxom, next to the sarcastic humor of Don Cherry in the trumpet, the galloping accurately under Charlie Haden and the coup d'état titanic of Ed Blackwell in the battery, shattered our way of thinking 'dualist', to give way to a colorful range of nuances and surprises.
A hero who only seeks to overcome if same, breaking political paradigms, i.e. the vision of art permanently bombard the roughness of the everyday life with its static paradigms. "You've pressed the fund/and in the fund had not abyss/but joy. /You had liked find despair, rupture. /Even denial of the i. /but not joy! /who could expect joy down there? /who was going to imagine it? /who would think? " (4).

Hiring for Services: Bias Continues to Be Huge Problem in IT Procurement
We certainly know about the multitude of laws and regulations for fair hiring practices of employees. However, when it comes to enterprise procurement of services, U.S. IT companies may not be relying on merit and qualifications as much as a service provider would expect. According to U.K.-based Blur Group's Freedom for American Business report, released on April 28, the day of the consultancy's U.S. launch, service providers—especially startups and small players—most often get the short end of the stick due to their lack of connections. Cronyism continues to be a fact of business life, despite so many new companies with progressive products and services. This is bad news for the companies that do the hiring as well; being stuck in their ways of hiring companies with whom they have had previous connections rather than those that may be better suited for the job may result in diminished creativity in problem-solving. It also could result in a diminished bottom line. This research targeted 400 procurement decision-makers in the U.S. from companies with at least 50 employees and that use service vendors in any capacity. This eWEEK slide show, produced with our own reporting to go with the Blur Group research, unearths some important data points for procurement managers to know.

Archetypal-Imaging and Mirror-Gazing
DIPSUM, University of Urbino, via Saffi 15, 61029 Urbino, Italy
Received: 23 September 2013 / Revised: 18 December 2013 / Accepted: 19 December 2013 / Published: 24 December 2013
(This article belongs to the Special Issue Analytical Psychology: Theory and Practice)
Mirrors have been studied by cognitive psychology in order to understand self-recognition, self-identity, and self-consciousness. Moreover, the relevance of mirrors in spirituality, magic and arts may also suggest that mirrors can be symbols of unconscious contents. Carl G. Jung investigated mirrors in relation to the unconscious, particularly in Psychology and Alchemy. However, the relationship between the conscious behavior in front of a mirror and the unconscious meaning of mirrors has not been clarified. Recently, empirical research found that gazing at one's own face in the mirror for a few minutes, at a low illumination level, produces the perception of bodily dysmorphic illusions of strange-faces. Healthy observers usually describe huge distortions of their own faces, monstrous beings, prototypical faces, faces of relatives and deceased, and faces of animals. In the psychiatric population, some schizophrenics show a dramatic increase of strange-face illusions. They can also describe the perception of multiple-others that fill the mirror surface surrounding their strange-face. Schizophrenics are usually convinced that strange-face illusions are truly real and identify themselves with strange-face illusions, diversely from healthy individuals who never identify with them. On the contrary, most patients with major depression do not perceive strange-face illusions, or they perceive very faint changes of their immobile faces in the mirror, like death statues. Strange-face illusions may be the psychodynamic projection of the subject's unconscious archetypal contents into the mirror image. Therefore, strange-face illusions might provide both an ecological setting and an experimental technique for "imaging of the unconscious". Future researches have been proposed.Keywords:

Tighter wallets are asking us to get creative in every spending category. In the kitchen, that creativity can be a delicious surprise. Want to cook like a gourmet, on the cheap? Take $25 cash to the grocery store and see what you can buy with it. Then, go home, combine it with the fridge and cupboard food you already have, and see how many meals it will make you. Just last week, I pulled together three scrumptious dishes that were so good, my kitchen will see them again and again. And they were easy on the budget! Here are my current favorites. What are some of the recipes you have found?
Crisper Veggies Concoction
Grab everything in the crisper that looks like it can withstand the roaster, and mix it together for a tasty new staple.
Red bell pepper
Back shelf seasonings (cumin, coriander …)
Half an orange
Put in a roasting dish and drizzle with olive oil. Break out some of those seasonings in the back of the shelves. Sprinkle with cumin, coriander seed to give it a delicious Indian flavor. Bake at 375 degrees F. After 15 minutes, remove and squeeze juice from half an orange over the top. Bake for another 15–20 minutes or until tender.
Serve it one night over quinoa or brown rice. The next night serve it sautéed with chicken or tofu on top of salad with oil and vinegar. Yum!
Second Life Sandwich
Don't throw away last night's bread! Make it into a delectable sandwich.
Left over hardened French bread
Olive oil
Miso mayonnaise
Spinach leaves (fresh)
Slice the bread, brush with olive oil and roast it in broiler for 3 minutes or until toasted on top. Spread with Miso Mayonnaise (a zingy mayo blended with Japanese mustard), and top with your choice of what's in the fridge or garden. My faves are tomatoes, spinach leaves, and avocado slices. Serve open face. Melts in your mouth.
Kale to Write Home About
This kale salad can bend to your whims with all kinds of additional and creative ingredients. Fresh kale is hardy, inexpensive, and can be eaten raw or cooked, with turbo nutritional power. Here's my fave.
Olive oil
Sea salt
Half an orange
Balsamic vinegar
(Optional: goat cheese, avocados, pumpkin seeds, dried cranberries …)
Chop one bunch of fresh kale. Sprinkle with a few tablespoons of olive oil. Add a quarter teaspoon of sea salt. Massage together ingredients and let sit for 10 minutes. Then squeeze juice from half an orange on it, or mix with a teaspoon of tahini. This salad makes a terrific base. Add different ingredients to your liking, and see how many delicious versions of it you can create.

Eric Cantor says he will resign his seat in Virginia months early, a day after he stepped down as House majority leader.
15:29, UK, Friday 01 August 2014
Republican Congressman Eric Cantor will resign his seat in the House of Representatives months earlier than expected, following his stunning election loss to an ultraconservative challenger.
Mr Cantor announced on Friday he would give up his Virginia seat on August 18 instead of serving his full term, which would have ended in January.
The 51-year-old will ask Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe to call a special election so that his successor can take office immediately, a Cantor spokesman told the AP news agency.
Mr Cantor stepped down as House majority leader on Thursday.
As he made a farewell speech to the chamber on Thursday, Republican Speaker John Boehner - his onetime rival - apparently became emotional, wiping his eyes.
In a rare bipartisan show, the departing lawmaker was given a standing ovation by colleagues.
Mr Cantor lost to Dave Brat, an economics professor allied to the hard-right tea party movement in June's Republican primary, a giant-slayer result that stunned Capitol Hill.

Stewart finishes second in consecutive weeks
June 25, 2012, Andrew Shain, Special to NASCAR.COM, NASCAR.com
The twists and turns of the road course in Sonoma put some fizz in the Coca-Cola Racing Family, with Tony Stewart's second-place finish leading the way. Half of the red-and-white cavalry landed in the top 11, and four family members are Chase-ready, with another close behind. Tony Stewart Sonoma finish: Second Season standings: Fifth Call him top-three Tony. Stewart nabbed his third straight finish in second or third by rushing through the pack after starting 24th. He was in the top 10 after 50 laps, but he did not get enough gas to finish the race on a scheduled pit stop. A late caution gave him a chance to fuel up and get new tires to speed his way to a second-place finish. Stewart now has nine top-10 results in 14 races at Sonoma -- including five of the past six. He gained three places in the season standings. What he said: "We planned on letting everything get settled down for a couple of laps and just going one at a time, so we had an unfortunate-fortunate break at the end. On the second-to-last pit stop there, something happened on plugging the fuel in and didn't get it full, so that second-to-last caution there we got a chance to come in for fuel and four tires and that got us up there. We just had eight or 10 laps fresher tires than those guys. We still had to fight our way through there. We had a really good car; we just took all day to get the track position." * Addington attentive to Stewart's needs | Press Pass Greg Biffle Sonoma finish: Seventh Season standings: Second Biffle had a good starting spot (fourth) and a good finish (seventh) but wrestled with a loose car in between. He fell back as far as 22nd about halfway through the race, but he surged into the top 15 in the final 10 laps and inside the top 10 on the green-white-checkered finish. Biffle's two consecutive top-10 results have helped put him second in the standings. What he said: "We had a decent day, but we were just too loose all day. We didn't have enough forward drive to turn the way we needed. We need to work on our road course program a little bit. [Crew chief] Matt [Puccia] made a great call to salvage a good day for us. It is disappointing we can't run any better than we are." Joey Logano Sonoma finish: 10th Season standings: 15th Logano is finding enough consistency to keep him in contention for the Chase. He started 14th and stayed inside the top 15 for all but 10 laps. Logano slid outside the top 20 soon after the midway point, but he zoomed inside the top 10 within 10 laps. He has two consecutive top 10s at Sonoma and four top10s in his past six races this season. With a win, Logano stands 12 points outside of a wild-card spot after 16 races. What he said: "For a while, it looked like we were going to go green flag the whole race. I was like, 'Holy cow, this is impressive.' Then we had that one caution, we took tires there. I was able to pass some cars, follow the 14 [Stewart] up through there to a certain point and he kept going, which was impressive. We kind of leveled out there around eighth and stayed about there. Another caution came out, and we were on the other end of it, the guys that stayed out on tires with guys on new tires behind us. I was trying to hold those guys off toward the end of the race." Jeff Burton Sonoma finish: 11th Season standings: 19th Perhaps Burton found a little something to spark his season. Burton started a season-worst 35th and was 27th with 40 laps to go. He surged to gain a race-best-tying six positions in the final 11 laps, including four spots in the final two laps. Burton grabbed his best finish at Sonoma in five years and has top-15 finishes in six races this season. He moved up a two spots in the standings. Ryan Newman Sonoma finish: 18th Season standings: 13th He started 10th but spun early and fell back to 28th after 40 laps. While battling an ill-handling car, Newman would go a lap down, but he got the lucky dog with two laps remaining. A set of new tires helped Newman pick up five positions during the green-white-checkered finish. The 18th-place finish snapped a streak of four straight top 15s. Newman currently holds the second of the two wild-card spots for the Chase. What he said: "It was a tough day. We just didn't have any side bite, and the car was just a handful all day. I wish we could have run better. The guys didn't give up and we made up some spots at the end, but we were all hoping for a better day." Jamie McMurray Sonoma finish: 19th Season standings: 20th McMurray's California adventure did not start well, with almost nothing to his liking in practice and qualifying. He started 25th, but the car seemed to get better. He got as high as ninth after about 70 laps. But McMurray fell off the pace and sank to the edge of the top 25. He was able to get inside the top 20 when the checkered flag flew. The finish was his worst at Sonoma in five years and cost him two spots in the standings. What he tweeted before the race: "Brakes are better. Engine is better but we still need some help with the handling of our car. Mostly just need to be a little lucky today." Bobby Labonte Sonoma finish: 24th Season standings: 26th Labonte's recent string of decent finishes ended on the road course, though he managed a better-than-usual result at Sonoma. He started 18th, but a poor-handling car and a flat tire pushed him through the top 30. He was able to come back through the pack and gained four spots in the final two-lap dash Labonte got his fourth finish of 30th of better in his past nine Sonoma races. He stayed 26th in the standngs. Denny Hamlin Sonoma finish: 35th Season standings: Eighth Hamlin has been among the season's most consistent finishers, ranking in the top five with the likes of Biffle. He started 16th and made his way to as high as seventh before spinning out on Lap 94. He was not able to finish for a second consecutive week. Hamlin's worst result in 29 races since August in Michigan comes after a 34th-place finish a week ago. The spin cost Hamlin three places in the points standings. What he tweeted: "It's hard to think of the positives after a day like this. Seems like every time I come here its the same story. Run great, get wrecked." * Video: Hamlin spins on Turn 11 Weekly Coca-Cola Roundup Archive

MCHIP Publishes Document on Community Health Worker Programs at Scale
MCHIP's blog

Printer-friendly version
December 20, 2013 —
7 May 2014
MCHIP is pleased to announce the publication of "Developing and Strengthening Community Health Worker Programs at Scale: A Reference Guide and Case Studies for Program Managers and Policy Makers." This document is an in-depth review of issues and questions that should be considered when addressing key issues relevant for large-scale CHW programs.
To download the Guide in its entirety, click
Rather than being an instructional manual, the Reference Guide is meant to provide a framework for those in leadership positions in-country as they consider how to develop, expand and strengthen their CHW program. It was developed in parallel with the URC/Project ASSIST CHW Decision-Making Support Tool, which is also in the process of being released.
The Reference Guide has many practical examples from CHW programs around the world. The contents are in four sections and contain a total of 16 chapters covering such topics as a history of CHW programs, planning, governance and financing, national coordination and partnerships, roles and tasks, recruitment, training, supervision, motivation and incentives, relations with the community and health systems, scaling up, and measurement and data use. There is an appendix containing (1) case studies from Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Brazil, Ethiopia, India, Indonesia, Iran, Nepal, Pakistan, Rwanda, Zambia and Zimbabwe; (2) a summary of perspectives on large-scale CHW programs from key informants; and (3) important resources.
To download PDFs of each chapter, refer to the links below:
Section 1: Setting the Stage
Chapter 1. Introduction
The current enthusiasm for large-scale Community Health Workers (CHWs) needs to be tempered with a sobering reflection on the disappointments that followed a similar wave of enthusiasm in the 1970s and 1980s, noting challenges in scaling up and sustaining large-scale public sector CHW programs.
Large-scale public sector CHW programs are complex entities that require adapting a systems perspective to the national and local contexts.
CHWs are a diverse group of community-level workers. This guide distinguishes between two levels of CHWs: (1) full-time, paid, with formal pre-service training and (2) volunteer, part-time workers.
The guide attempts to avoid categorical recommendations, but rather offers suggested issues and principles to consider and, when possible, brings in relevant program experience.
Chapter 2. A Brief History of CHW Programs
The first Community Health Workers (CHWs) were "Farmer Scholars'' who were trained in China in the 1930s and were the forerunners of the Barefoot Doctors, of whom there were more than one million from the 1950s to the 1970s.
In the 1960s and 1970s, small CHW programs began to emerge in various countries, particularly in Latin America.
The experience from CHW programs predating the 1970s provided the inspiration for much larger CHW programs in many low-income countries in the 1980s.
Following the failure of many of the programs in the 1980s and 1990s, new highly successful programs have emerged. As a result of research findings demonstrating the effectiveness of community-based programs in improving child health in particular, there is now a resurgence of interest in and growth of CHW programs around the world.
Chapter 3. National Planning for Community Health Worker Programs
The planning process defines many of the other topics in this manual (e.g., supervision, training, roles and responsibilities of Community Health Workers [CHWs]) using an informed and methodical process.
The most effective planning mechanism is a feedback loop, where community-level information is fed through the multiple sublevels (e.g., district, subnational, or provincial) to the national level, where policy, funding, and evaluation can be continually revised.
Careful planning during the design and implementation of a national CHW program results in a context-appropriate program that successfully trains, supervises, and retains CHWs, while simultaneously improving health service delivery on the community level.
Chapter 4. Governing Large-scale Community Health Worker Programs
This chapter discusses the following key questions that decision-makers need to consider in relation to governing CHW programs:
How, and where within political structures, are policies made for CHW programs?
Who, and at what levels of government, implements decisions regarding CHW programs?
What laws and regulations are needed to support the program?
How should the program be adapted across different settings or groups within the country or region?
Chapter 5. The Financing of Large-scale Community Health Worker Programs
Proper costing of a community health worker (CHW) program and assurance that those costs can be paid for on a sustainable basis are essential for an effective large-scale CHW program.
Failure to do so has led to the demise of large-scale CHW programs in the 1980s.
Direct and indirect costs of CHW programs need to be estimated, along with investment and recurring costs, in order to adequate plan for the sustainable financing of a CHW program.
CHW program costs vary widely from country to country as a result of contextual factors, such as local labor costs, whether CHWs are paid or voluntary, and the degree to which the program is well-supervised with a strong logistics systems.
Governments, local communities, and external donors are the main sources of financing for CHW programs.
Chapter 6. Coordination and Partnerships for Community Health Worker Initiatives
Community health workers (CHWs), unlike other formal human resources for health (HRH) cadres, have diverse links with the formal health system in many countries. They are also positioned within a complex array of relationships in the social setting of the communities where they work.
The complex and diverse challenges of CHW initiatives that emerge in a number of countries are invariably beyond the power of a single actor to address and require coordination and collaboration among different players and actors at all levels.
The multisectoral coordination of HRH, including CHWs, is not an objective in its own right; it is a means to an end, while the end objective is universal health coverage (UHC), achievement of Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), and elimination of health disparities within the country.
The multisectoral dimensions of CHW initiatives demand a multisectoral policy process and a coordination mechanism that can provide an environment and a platform where the related sectors can work together to harmonize and synchronize their efforts.
There are several national multipartner coordination mechanisms for health; however, the coordination process for CHW initiatives, as well as for other aspects of HRH, should be able to meet the country's needs, and should be aligned with other coordination mechanisms as part of the overall health agenda.
Synergy and harmonization of financial and technical support from international actors in response to the national needs is vital for CHW initiatives to contribute to UHC and ensure equitable access to the essential health services within that country. A framework for harmonized actions and a joint commitment on CHWs provide appropriate opportunities to synchronize partners' actions in support of CHWs initiatives.
Section 2: Human Resources
Chapter 7. Community Health Worker Roles and Tasks
A number of health care services exist that can make a significant difference to maternal and child health (MCH) in poor settings. Because community health workers (CHWs) are close to communities, both geographically and socially, they could potentially be responsible for a number of these services.
When planning new CHW roles or expanding the roles of existing CHWs, program planners need to analyze current research evidence and evidence-based guidelines on the effectiveness and safety of relevant tasks performed by CHWs. Planners need to assess whether the recommended CHW roles and tasks are considered acceptable and appropriate by their target population, by the CHWs themselves and by those who support them. Finally, planners need to think about the practical and organizational implications of each task for their particular setting with regard to training requirements, health systems support, work location, workload, and program costs.
This chapter provides a list of questions that may help program planners think about important issues when determining CHW roles and tasks.
Chapter 8. Recruitment of Community Health Workers
Developing appropriate recruitment policies and processes is a critical feature of an effective large-scale community health worker (CHW) program.
Community engagement in recruitment is highly desirable, but managing this in a way that is productive requires careful planning and adaptation.
An effective recruitment program can help reduce attrition, which is a major challenge for many large-scale CHW programs.
Chapter 9. Training Community Health Workers for Large-Scale Community-Based Health Care Programs
CHW training needs to be carefully adapted to the needs of the trainees, the job, and the tasks they are expected to perform and the context in which they will be working.
Current training approaches and techniques that are effective for training CHWs should be employed.
Examples of training programs and their structures from a variety of CHW programs are provided.
Chapter 10. Supervision of Community Health Workers
Supervision for community health workers (CHWs) is one of the most challenging program elements to implement; yet, it is considered one of the most important elements to successful programs.
Supervisory responsibilities have changed over time from providing administrative and clinical oversight to the inclusion of psychosocial support to frontline CHWs who face a wide range of challenges on their own.
Supervision is generally considered to be oversight from a health worker at a peripheral facility; however, this model is costly and difficult to implement. Alternative approaches might include group supervision, peer supervision, and community supervision to distribute the supervision tasks and increase support to CHWs in some contexts.
Chapter 11. What Motivates Community Health Workers? Designing Programs that Incentivize Community Health Worker Performance and Retention
Financial compensation is one – but only one – of many influences on the motivations of community health workers (CHWs) to perform their responsibilities.
Non-material incentives need to be given careful consideration along with financial incentives.
Indirect non-material incentives, such as the degree to which the environment is supportive of CHWs and the degree to which the health system functions effectively are also motivating influences for CHWs.
Lack of appropriate incentives, with resulting high rates of turnover, are common in large-scale CHW program and costly in terms of actual cost to replace CHWs and also in terms of the performance of the CHW program.
Section 3: CHW Programs in Context
Chapter 12. Community Health Worker Relationships with Other Parts of the Health System
Well-designed, functional support and interaction between CHWs and health systems are essential for effective community health services.
Large-scale community health services often are delivered by health systems that are inherently weak, posing considerable design challenges. In general, for community health services to function well, adequately strong support systems are needed.
Community-based health services should be seen as the foundational first tier of the health system.
Chapter 13. Community Participation in Large-Scale Community Health Worker Programs
Balancing the inherent tensions of a large-scale community health worker (CHW) program, where the CHW is the lowest-tier worker of a national health system while also acting on behalf of the always-changing local world of a community, will be an ongoing challenge requiring decentralized flexibility in program policy, design, and implementation.
A successful CHW program requires the support and ownership of the community, as well as a supportive social and policy environment for community participation at national, district, and local levels.
Cost and time of the implementer, district, and national-level personnel should be factored in when designing a community participation strategy.
The development and support of community networks, linkages, partners, and coordination is necessary to enable a comprehensive community-participation approach for better health.
Village health committees and other local governance structures can be effective mechanisms to ensure local leadership, legitimacy, participation, and governance, but these committees require continued training and investment.
Section 4: Achieving Impact
Chapter 14. Scaling Up and Maintaining Effective Large-Scale Community Health Worker Programs
Effective programming at scale requires having a viable, scalable program that works on a small scale under routine field conditions, followed by careful planning (appropriate to the national context) that assures long-term sustainability at scale.
Ongoing monitoring and evaluation (M&E), with adjustments to the program based on these findings, is essential both for effective scale-up and long-term program effectiveness at scale.
Scaling up is a political process, so leadership and proper engagement with the political system, national-level stakeholders, and the Ministry of Health (MOH) is essential.
Chapter 15. Measurement and Data Use for Services Provided by Community Health Workers
Routine measurement and data use for community health services are poorly developed in most countries.
Such information systems, if well-developed and used, can strengthen community health services, including the performance of community health workers (CHWs).
Sometimes additional information will need to be collected beyond what is normally reported on routine monthly report forms.
Descriptions of some of the findings from monitoring and evaluation of large-scale CHW programs in Pakistan and India are provided.
Chapter 16. Wrap-Up
The current enthusiasm for large-scale Community Health Worker (CHW) programs needs to be tempered with a sobering reflection on the disappointments that followed a similar wave of enthusiasm in the 1970s and 1980s and that challenges in scaling up and sustaining large-scale public sector CHW programs remain.
Large-scale public sector CHW programs are complex entities that require adapting a systems perspective to the national and local contexts.
This reference guide has attempted to avoid categorical recommendations and has suggested issues and principles to consider and, when possible, has cited relevant program experience.
CHWs are not a stop-gap measure in a second-rate health program, but a permanent part of a highly functional and effective first-class health system.

I am a young professional, husband, father, and world traveler. I use AirBnb for several different applications. My whole family and I have stayed in other countries and rented homes, or apartments with AirBnB. I also use the site when my wife and I want to have a weekend get away. Also AirBnB is my go to site for business travels.
I cannot tell you where my favorite place to travel is but I do know that I enjoy experiencing any country that I have been to for its own rich benefits. People, climate, scenery, and food are some of the things that make up this.
