A new innovation can completely reshape an industry-- inspiring both optimism and debate. The development of genetically engineered (GE) crops in the 1980's ignited a buzz in the agricultural community with the potential for higher crop yields and better nutritional content, along with the reduction of herbicide and pesticide use.
Crop Science is the flagship journal of the Crop Science Society of America. Original research is peer-reviewed and published in this highly cited journal. It also contains invited review and interpretation articles and perspectives that offer insight and commentary on recent advances in crop science. For more information, visit www.crops.org/publications/cs
The Crop Science Society of America (CSSA), founded in 1955, is an international scientific society comprised of 6,000+ members with its headquarters in Madison, WI. Members advance the discipline of crop science by acquiring and disseminating information about crop breeding and genetics; crop physiology; crop ecology, management, and quality; seed physiology, production, and technology; turfgrass science; forage and grazinglands; genomics, molecular genetics, and biotechnology; and biomedical and enhanced plants.
CSSA fosters the transfer of knowledge through an array of programs and services, including publications, meetings, career services, and science policy initiatives. For more information, visit www.crops.org

Light can be used not only to measure materials' properties, but also to change them. Especially interesting are those cases in which the function of a material can be modified, such as its ability to conduct electricity or to store information in its magnetic state. A team led by Andrea Cavalleri from the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter in Hamburg used terahertz frequency light pulses to transform a non-ferroelectric material into a ferroelectric one.
Ferroelectricity is a state in which the constituent lattice "looks" in one specific direction, forming a macroscopic electrical polarisation. The ability to...

A legendary truck makes a triumphant return. Colin is forced to go it alone after a freak snowstorm leaves the highway littered with crashed vehicles. The reason he started the show was to help redirect people to the right track. Jamie and Brandon take a well-deserved break from clearing wrecks on the highway to compete in a car race on a frozen lake. Samy returns to Vancouver to visit his family while Kevin raises safety issues with Jamie. With no fire department to help, Gazzola tries out an old fire truck Davis bought for cheap. Brandon walked off on the job after the operation took a lot longer than expected, but next morning, he learns the basics of car recovery and towing, but by the fifth attempt at recovering the car, Jamie gave up calling on Brandon and asked Gord to help.
Highway through hell focuses on the fact that we are strangers here on earth. Dylan goes waist-deep to fish a truck out of a lake. Later, when a heavy SeaCan tips over, Davis and his rotator are pushed to their limit. Memorable wrecks and rescues were recalled. While Kevin captures the action on tape, Samy does most of the heavy lifting and dismantling of the burnt wreck, earning him a large bottle of scotch and Jamie's praise, even when he removed the barrel that could have been used to contain an oil leak, which heaped pressure to do a 2-hour salvage operation in just 20-minutes just to open the highway.
He has brought back a big crew - Adam Gazzola, Narayan Samy, Kevin Ritchie, Rob Mitchell, Bruce Hardy, Ken Monkhouse, the new guy Gord Lundin, and Davis' stepson Brandon Kodallas. Jamie Davis deploys air bags to flip a bulging tractor trailer loaded with groceries in Alberta. Spring rains are causing rock slides on Highway 1. Even with three heavy rescue trucks, Jamie's crew doesn't have enough equipment to do the job right. Just days before Christmas, Jamie heads to the factory in Tennessee to bring it home himself with his new recruit, Hugo. A race to clear the Coq has Dylan spun around. If the weather is good, no problems arise, but if it goes bad, the path turns into a hellish path.
When Colin slips up on a big recovery in Alberta, Jamie's brother has to take over the job - even though he's new to the rotator. Hardy died of lung cancer and Davis his colleagues walked beside his casket in the funeral procession. As things are heating up, an unexpected visit from arch-rival Al Quiring brings out some serious barbs from Adam. Scott is forced to get 'inventive' to finish a job. To make matters worse, Adam and Hugo must team up with Al and his new driver, Gord, to free up traffic after a multi-truck accident blocked the Coq, as well as racing against each other to get the better cut of the earnings. As winter comes to a close, Nik reflects on his return to heavy rescue while he tackles one final job.
Going to church has become a ritual. Jamie's brother Kelly battles high winds and a power pole to save a semi loaded with pipes. Rather, we should focus on both. When a B-train loaded with lumber drives off a cliff in order to avoid a boulder, Jamie's called in to recover the wreck before it falls down onto an active railroad line. Just select the season below and enjoy high speed safe downloading without torrents and ads.
Bruce gets into a fight that lands him in the hospital. . Things get more complicated when one of Jamie's new drivers, from the city, learns a close buddy has nearly died in a towing accident during a snowstorm. So why not teach people to prepare their souls for heaven rather that focusing on earthly things that will perish and pass away. When Kevin buys a video camera to film wrecks, his new hobby starts to get in the way of his current job. And a cascade of wrecks on two different highways mean both Al Quiring and Adam Gazzola must face their own night from hell. That some churches do not even talk about this at all since they are afraid to loss their members.
Brandon, Jamie's 17-year-old stepson and last winter's rookie, takes some heat for his work ethic but isn't afraid to throw it back. A brutal, back road mission on a burned-out wreck. Gord Boyd picks up a brand new heavy wrecker for Quiring Towing. The next day is a battle on all fronts to get the Coq open - with helicopter teams dropping more bombs, highway crews faced with two feet of accumulation, and Jamie's team forced to call in a second rotator, who happened to be Jamie's brother, Jason. Jamie charts a new course for his business - setting out on a 2,000 km journey. A team of avalanche techs flies up the mountain in helicopters to drop concussion bombs and release the build-up, but bad weather hampers their first attempt.
With the Coq closed overnight, trucks are using the back roads to get through. Each time may be fatal and all hope remains for the mercy of God and quick help of rescuers from road service. The presenter says that, we should not put all of our minds on the creatures and forget the creator. It all ends with a surprise when Mark invites the guys to see the Coquihalla, and the majestic mountains surrounding it, from an angle they've never experienced: from mid-air in a helicopter. Colin faces a white-knuckle drive on a remote Alberta back road, and Jamie tests out a new driver, who might be in over his head. In northern Alberta, the Rotator faces its first real test as the crew works to prove they can handle the heavy industrial wrecks and extreme weather.
The likeable, if gruff, Davis explained the difficulties of expanding from British Columbia into Alberta to keep the lights on and diesel in the trucks. Then, his classic restoration project - The 'Mighty Mo' - finally comes to life. Jamie takes his Python wrecker off-road to rescue a propane truck, while Al Quiring has to save a snowplow hit by a semi on the Coquihalla. When a winter-worn cable snaps, narrowly missing Adams head, Jamie's most senior driver threatens to go on strike. A truckload of frozen chickens crashes into a tangle of trees. A heavy rescue 'legend' shows up to help Dylan on an icy recovery.

Sony is holding an enormous PlayStation Flash Sale for PAX that features Persona 5
Sony is profiting from PAX West this weekend to kick off one other Flash Sale, which at this level is only a frequent incidence. The crown jewel of the sale needs to be Persona 5 Final Version, which can run you $57.49 (down from $114.99) on PS4. To make clear the "Final" moniker refers to a DLC bundle, which incorporates numerous bits of costumes, BGMs, and different non-essential extras.
You even have some nice PSOne Classics blended in there (which solely run on PS3 sadly), in addition to Bloodborne for seven bucks (and the DLC for six bucks, virtually as a lot as the sport itself) and Remaining Fantasy XV: Royal Version for 20 bucks. Sony says the sale will finish on September four at 8AM PT, so that you do have a while to sift by means of it.
South Park: The Fractured however Entire Gold Version, which comes with all the DLC, can also be $29.69 (down from $89.99), and you realize that cent worth needs to be intentional.

Tanzania Boycott
The Government of Tanzania has decided to build a highway across the Serengeti !!!Please inform yourself about this issue before you support their decision by considering other more environmentally concerned countries to travel to. I have just cancelled my travels there to protest my concerns.
not sure if there was any news out lately, but there has been quite a bit of talk about around/since july.
As far as I understand these are still plans, and Tanzania indeed is still planning to go through with it.
However, they get a huge amount of upset reactions from environmentalists, and possibly also from the tourism industry.
One thing that still isn't clear to me is what this 'highway' is supposed to be? From what I can understand from the different articles it seems to be an existing route that will be enhanced and 'opened up' for commercial traffic? Not the speedy tarmac road I at first envisioned when I heard 'serengeti highway' ;)
From what I learned, it is existing, but currently used by mostly tourism vehicles or supply vehicles for the tourism industry. The new road would be tarmac with 2 lanes.
If that is wrong, please correct the info.
One of the big deterrents to the this "northern" route is the potential loss of "World Heritage" status.
Who to contact?

This is a good link.
How fast?
Note the article was pre-election. Post-election information on speed limits has been merely speculation from what I can find. The speculation is that the park speed limits would not apply to the highway.
Tanzanian Highway Threatens the Serengeti
• AUGUST 19, 2010
Many of the predictions about the destruction of the wildebeest migration are based on the scenario of a high-speed asphalt highway through the Serengeti park. Early reports indicated that the Serengeti section of the highway would be paved, but (Tanzania President Jakaya) Kikwete recently assured critics that the 30-mile section would be gravel with a low speed limit.
But critics say the road would still threaten the wildlife because it would not be controlled by the Serengeti National Parks authority. "If that road is de-gazetted from the Serengeti, there would be no limitation on traffic at night and fencing could happen without the national park having a say in it," said Dennis Rentsch, a community liaison for the Frankfurt Zoological Society.
this is a helpful video that explains the current proposal;
it is a different route than the existing, but not tarmac at the start (expected to become tarmac in the future of course).
Estimated 400 trucks per day :(
and here is there facebook page with a lot more articles on the subject;
Thanks for the video.
400 trucks per day, with some traveling at night, which increases the odds of animal-vehicle collisons. The fear is that to avoid such collisions the road will then be fenced and fencing WOULD halt the migration and the Serengeti ecosystem as we know it.
This Aug 2 article looks like tarmac would not be used. But if not initially, probably eventually.
Aug 2, 2010
The government has partly bowed to pressure from international organisations and rescinded its decision to pave a road running across the world-famous Serengeti National Park (Senapa).
President Jakaya Kikwete said in his end-of-the month speech on Saturday evening that the government had decided not to tarmac the 50km stretch passing though the park. The stretch is part of a road planned by the government to link Mara and Arusha regions from Musoma in Mara to Mto wa Mbu in Arusha through Loliondo in Ngorngoro District.
I would think that more foreceful than a bunch of names on a petition (which I signed months ago) would be personal contacts (which I've sent and will again)--especially personal contacts from anyone changing their travel plans away from Tanzania and why.
Sad thought: If too many people shun Tanzania and the Serengeti is no longer a wildlife tourist destination, then so what if the migration is destoyed and the ecosystem ruined? It is no longer a tourism money maker, use the land and resources in another manner.
Very depressing.
If a boycott is in order, it would be far more effective (at least in the US) to boycott Wal-Mart. The press and other media seem to be ignoring the most important driver, i.e. where is the money coming from? Who is willing to put up the cash to build the road? Who wants the minerals and other resources that the road allows to be harvested? Most immediately, who is greasing the wheels? This isn't rocket science. All roads lead to the East and it ain't East Africa.
This is first and foremost a travel site, and the politics are best addressed elsewhere. But boycotting Tanzania tourism does nothing to address the problem. Tourism dollars also grease some wheels, but nothing like the grease that will open up the Continent's interior and its resources to world markets.
While I disagree with you, Otis, that the political aspects of travel don't belong on this forum, I unfortunately agree completely with you about the role of this continent's resources and world markets.
The info in a Today Show segment from this morning stated that China is buying huge quantities of these rare earth metals extracted from regions near Lake Victoria and transported across the Serengeti.
sharon, I don't really believe you are cancelling your trip, nor do I think it is the best advice.
Surely it is better to go and talk to people than just spout on an internet forum?
What people should Sharon talk to? I will also talk to them. Please tell us. We'll all talk to them.
If Sharon is spouting, then every post on every topic is a spout. That's what happens on an internet forum.
Why is this not good advice? Please present the other side or show why this is reactionary.
My requests of you, Mcwomble, are sincere requests for info, not just rhetorical challenges.
I think you give some good ideas of people to contact. I also meant talking to Tanzanians to get their views.
I also agree with you that a boycott could have the opposite effect - tourism diminishes and has less influence on government decisions.
And I'd be interested to hear where these envirnomentally-friendly countries are? Kenya? Botswana?
I agree that every country, including my own, has environmental issues and shortfalls.
But if building this road would truly result in a "complete collapse" of the Serengeti as claimed in the Today Show, then that elevates this situation to a level of emergency.
December 29, 2010
The Honorable Jakaya Kikwete
President of the Republic of Tanzania
Dear President Kikwete:
As a yearly visitor to the continent of Africa, I am appealing to you and the government of Tanzania to stop the planned construction of the highway through the Serengeti. Please choose an alternate route that offers a safer alternative route to the south which bypasses the Serengeti.
Please listen to the voices of millions of people worldwide, and do not damage the legacy of your first president, Julius Nyerere, who gave Tanzania global recognition for a reputation of conservation achievements. It is a reputation which your country still enjoys.
With proper stewardship, this reputation and the tourism dollars that result will continue for years to come.
Yours sincerely,

bought a mattress last December, 2017. it did not feel the same as the floor model.
after keeping it for 15 days. I went back to the de zavla location in san Antonio and the sales manager, mike requested that I keep it for the full 30 days so it would be "broken in." I returned exactly 30 days and I was not happy with the product. I returned to "mike" the sales person and responded by him there was another one we could try. the delivery team came out and said they saw a "spot" which I called mike.
he said to me, blot it off. The issue was there was nothing to blot out. the delivery team returned with the 2nd choice and 15 days later, I was back at "mike" location where I was informed the top of the line was $3500.00. I requested that one and when the delivery team returned, the took some pictures of a "spot" and wouldn't take it back.
Mike once again told me to "blot" an invisable spot. I said to him, I am not a mattress cleaner and at this point, the delivery team left. after calling mike 5 times, in one day and was told he was busy with other clients. I beg to differ on that account, I went to a different mattress firm closer to my house and I promise you, two different sales people told me they had the same exact mattress at their house.
how bizzare? I reached out to "Michael" the district manager that I was instructed by one of his sales people to "blot" the mattress which left a clear spot on the mattress. he said, geez, now your stuck with it. the only thing you can do is buy a "topper" which cost another $250.00.
I fell off the edge of the sagging mattress 4 times.
my spouse caught me 3 times and the 4th time required a visit to urgent care for a sprained left arm and a right hip concussion that required pain medicine for 10 days. Since there is an injury, I will forward the cost to mattress firm to pay the bill plus pain and suffering after my request to return all inferior items from my home, twice

The Fraternal Order of Police Chicago Lodge #7 is outraged after learning that a candidate for the office of Cook County State's Attorney has been a proponent for the release of an individual that was convicted in 1975 for the murder of Chicago Police Officer Ed Barron. Larry Suffredin Jr. at the time was the Public Defender for Joseph Bigsby, who, as the evidence proved, robbed at gunpoint and pistol whipped one of two elderly victims which caused the Police to be called to the scene. Upon their arrival, three Police Officers located the offender and ordered him to drop his weapon, Bigsby responded by drawing the Luger pistol, which was used in the robberies and fired at the officers, striking Officer Edward Barron in the head killing him instantly. Additional responding officers were also fired upon by the offender until he ran out of ammunition. Bigsby was apprehended, charged and convicted of Murder, three counts of Attempt Murder and two counts of Armed Robbery.
Larry Suffredin has been pleading with the Illinois Prisoner Review Board for several years for the release of this killer. The Fraternal Order of Police and Officer Barron's partner have fought for years to keep Prisoner #C02290 incarcerated. The thought that a potential State's Attorney, charged with prosecuting those who prey on our society, would turn his back on the Law Enforcement Community in this manner is appalling. The Cook County State's Attorney needs to be consistently in support of convicts serving their full sentences for the safety of the rest of society, and a tireless advocate for the families of the victims. If Mr. Suffredin is elected, this will create a horrendous conflict of interest.
The 18,000 members of Lodge #7 are outraged at Larry Suffredin's actions and his attempt to ride this and other issues into the office of Cook County State's Attorney. Mr. Suffredin needs to know that the Cook County State's Attorney should be an advocate for justice, not an opponent of it.

This is outrageous. I knew Ed to see him(a quiet giant)and still know his partner. My heart bleeds everytime I see his partner. There probably aren't many things worse that can happen to you, besides having a partner killed in the L.O.D. We have to have a definite "NO" to this Suffredin piece of Shit.

'Leaving no one behind' in action: observations from FGE'sseven-year experience working with civil society.
New York, New York, UN Women, [2017]. 8 p.This brief contains observations from the Fund for Gender Equality's (FGE) seven-year experience working with civil society. Gender equality is at the forefront of the 2030 Development Agenda. The Sustainable Development Goals include a stand-alone goal to advance equality, and gender-related targets mainstreamed across the Global Goals. If something has opened a door for drastic progress in the lives of women and girls worldwide, it is the principle of leaving no one behind. Leaving no one behind means prioritizing human beings' dignity and placing the progress of the most marginalized communities first—women and girls being all too often at the top of the list. It urges us to address the structural causes of inequality and marginalization that affect them. This ambitious undertaking requires a collective effort to identify and share effective strategies to operationalize this concept. This brief offers practical insights based on the experience of the FGE in working with marginalized populations through its support to women-led civil society organizations (CSOs).
Zimbabwe: An AIDS strategy focused and aligned with our vision and the United Nations targets for 2015. Case study.
[Geneva, Switzerland], UNAIDS, 2013. [3] p. (Case Study)This case study looks at how Zimbabwe evolved its work with UNAIDS and the Global Fund for HIV, Tuberculosis and Malaria to fit the New Funding Model for the Global Fund, and received a US$311 million three-year grant --- equal to the combined total of HIV assistance the country received from the Global Fund in the past decade. This case study examines how a country whose AIDS response was effective, people-centred and prioritized, but heavily under-funded, seized the chance to take its response to a new level, and the part UNAIDS played.
United Nations Trust Fund to End Violence against Women. Together for a better tomorrow.
[New York, New York], UN Women, [2011]. [21] p.Today, violence against women is a fact of life in communities and countries across the world. It transcends the bounds of geography, race, culture, class and religion. It ranges from intimate partner violence to the use of rape as a weapon of war, from sexual harassment in public spaces to harmful practices like child marriage. But tomorrow can be different. Societies change, sometimes very fast. Behaviours, norms and institutions that are commonplace and unremarkable in the eyes of one generation can be rejected by the next. The UN Trust Fund to End Violence against Women, established in 1996, embodies the heartening awakening of global consciousness. The only multilateral grant-making mechanism exclusively devoted to supporting efforts to end violence against women and girls, the UN Trust Fund works with partners across the world to secure much-needed services for women and girls affected by violence and to invest in long-term solutions to prevent violence from happening in the first place. For fifteen years, the UN Trust Fund has supported innovative, effective initiatives designed to transform the ways in which people think and act. The brochure "Together for a Better Tomorrow" highlights the work of the UN Trust Fund and its partners, delivering on the international community's commitment to making good on its promises to end violence against women and girls.
Technical support facilities: Helping to build an efficient and sustainable AIDS response. UNAIDS TSF 5 years report, 2011.
Geneva, Switzerland, UNAIDS, 2011 Oct. [60] p. (UNAIDS / JC2167E)This report highlights the role that the Technical Support Facilities (TSF) have played in Africa and Asia to strengthen countries capacities to fund, plan, manage and coordinate effective, larger scale HIV programs. Established by UNAIDS in 2005, the TSFs have provided support to over 70 countries through 50,000 days of technical assistance and capacity development.
Maximizing returns on investments: UNAIDS support to countries to make Global Fund money work.
Geneva, Switzerland, UNAIDS, 2011 Jun. [24] p. (UNAIDS / JC2141E)This publication describes how the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV / AIDS (UNAIDS) partners with country partners and the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (Global Fund) to strengthen the global response to AIDS and to accelerate progress towards universal access to HIV prevention, treatment, care and support, and the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).
Orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) programming in Global Fund HIV / AIDS grants in Kenya.
Washington, D.C., Futures Group, Health Policy Initiative, 2010 Sep. [40] p. (USAID Contract No. GPO-I-01-05-00040-00)The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria is a major funder of HIV programs worldwide, including programs that support orphans and vulnerable children (OVC). Following on a desk review of OVC-related content in Global Fund HIV / AIDS grants, this study in Kenya sought to explore the country-level processes and issues that affect inclusion of OVC goals and strategies in Global Fund country proposals and grants. The study involved interviews with 23 OVC stakeholders, including representatives of government ministries, international agencies, the country coordinating mechanism, principal and sub-recipients, NGOs, faith-based organizations, and OVC network members.
Guidelines for integrating sexual and reproductive health into the HIV / AIDS component of country coordinated proposals to be submitted to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria: Round 8 and beyond. Updated 18 February 2008.
[London, England], Interact Worldwide, 2008 Feb 18. 36 p.The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, a unique multilateral partnership that has proven itself to be a successful mechanism for fighting these diseases, is an important funding vehicle for innovative responses to the three diseases, including SRH-HIV / AIDS integration. In preparation for upcoming and future Global Fund funding rounds, Guidelines for Integrating Sexual and Reproductive Health into the HIV / AIDS Component of Country Coordinated Proposals to be submitted to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria is designed to support Country Coordinated Mechanisms (CCMs) to develop Country Coordinated Proposals for the Global Fund that integrate sexual and reproductive health into the HIV / AIDS component.

Trends in development assistance and domestic financing for health in implementing countries. Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria third replenishment (2011-2013).
Geneva, Switzerland, Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, 2010 Mar. [26] p.Donors at the Mid-Term Review of the Global Fund's Second Voluntary Replenishment 2008- 2010 held in Caceres in March 2009 requested a report on the progress made by African countries with regard to the Abuja Declaration. This declaration, adopted at a 2001 summit of the Organisation of African Unity, was a commitment of African states to allocate at least 15 percent of their annual budgets to the health sector. Donors at the Mid-Term Review meeting also requested information concerning counterpart funding from middle-income countries. 2. This update begins with an explanation of current trends in development assistance for health (DAH) and the role that these external resources play in the total expenditure on health in low- and middle-income countries. It examines progress in 52 African countries and a sample of 20 non-African middle-income countries. It utilizes data from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) / Development Assistance Committee's (DAC) aggregated aid statistics and the Creditor Reporting System (CRS), the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) Development Assistance for Health database, the World Bank Development Indicators and the World Health Organization (WHO) National Health Accounts database. 3. Since the Abuja Summit in 2001, many African countries have increased the proportion of their national budget allocated to health. Over half of African countries recorded increases in health budget allocations between 2001 and 2007. By 2007, three African countries had achieved the Abuja target of 15 percent, and three others had exceeded this amount. For all 52 countries, the average general government expenditure on health as a percentage of total government expenditure rose marginally from 8.8 percent in 2001 to 9.0 percent in 2007. 4. The proportion of gross domestic product (GDP) devoted to health also increased marginally in the period 2001-2007, from 5.0 percent in 2001 to 5.3 percent in 2007. Substantial flows of DAH to these countries (amounting to US$ 4.7 billion in 2007) have contributed to these increased total expenditures on health. 5. Funding of the health sector in the lower-income countries examined contains a substantial proportion of DAH. In the middle-income countries examined, this funding is predominantly from domestic sources and external resources only contribute a negligible proportion of the total expenditure on health. In nearly two-thirds of the middle-income countries assessed for this paper, external resources contributed less than 1 percent of the total expenditure on health in 2007. 6. In the current economic climate, the likelihood of African governments significantly increasing the proportional allocation to the health sector is not encouraging. With the current low per-capita expenditure on health in these countries, inflows of external resources remain critical if African countries are to run national programs at a scale necessary to achieve national and global targets in the fight against the three diseases. 7. Global Fund policy requires lower-middle income countries and upper-middle income countries to contribute substantially to their national program costs, for a number of reasons: to ensure national ownership of programs and their longer-term sustainability of programs, as well as to ensure sufficient funds are available to lower-income countries. In line with the Paris Declaration on aid effectiveness and in an attempt to avoid imposing specific further reporting requirements, it has not been the practice to request middle income countries to identify specific program components that they will fund. It is recognized that data in this domain needs to be strengthened and systematically collected and the Secretariat will explore ways in which to do that with technical partners in a manner that is consistent with aid effectiveness principles. The reform of the Global Fund business model, known as the architecture review, presents an opportunity for progress in this work.
Supporting community responses to malaria: A training manual to strengthen capacities of community based organizations in application processes of the Global Fund to Fight HIV / AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.
Cologne, Germany, STOP MALARIA NOW!, 2009 Nov. 53 p.This training manual is a product of the STOP MALARIA NOW! advocacy campaign and aims to support community responses to malaria. In particular, this manual aims to improve knowledge and skills of Community Based Organizations (CBOs) in application processes of the Global Fund to Fight HIV / AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.

Report to Congress by the U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator on the involvement of faith-based organizations in activities of the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria.
[Washington, D.C.], Office of the United States Global AIDS Coordinator, 2008 May. 40 p.The Administration provides this Report pursuant to Section 625(b) of the Department of State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs Appropriations Act, 2008 (Division J, Public Law 110-161), which requires the U.S. Secretary of State to submit a report to the Committees on Appropriations "on the involvement of faith-based organizations in Global Fund Programs. The report shall include (1) on a country-by-country basis -(A) a description of the amount of grants and subgrants provided to faith-based organizations; and (B) a detailed description of the involvement of faith-based organizations in the Country Coordinating Mechanism (CCM) process of the Global Fund; and (2) a description of actions the Global Fund is taking to enhance the involvement of faith-based organizations in the CCM process, particularly in countries in which the involvement of faith-based organizations has been underrepresented.
A practical guide to integrating reproductive health and HIV / AIDS into grant proposals to the Global Fund.
[Washington, D.C.], Population Action International, 2009 Sep. 61 p.Starting in recent proposal rounds, The Global Fund for AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (GFATM) has stated more explicitly that countries can include reproductive health as part of their proposals on AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria, as long as a justification is provided on the impact of reproductive health (RH) on reducing one of the three diseases. This document is for countries and organizations, including CCMs, government and nongovernmental organizations and civil society organizations, to help in integrating reproductive health, including family planning (RH) and HIV / AIDS in proposals submitted to the Global Fund. The document takes a country approach to integration since the Global Fund seeks to support proposals that build on and strengthen national programs. (Excerpt)
Making the money work: UNAIDS technical support to countries.
Geneva, Switzerland, UNAIDS, [2007]. [15] p.Funding for AIDS has grown significantly over the past decade. In 2007, US$10 billion is expected to be available for the AIDS response - about one third coming from developing countries - compared to less than US$300 million in 1995. The substantial increase in financial resources has allowed countries to scale up their AIDS response with the ultimate goal of achieving universal access to HIV prevention, treatment, care and support. However, many countries face difficulties in effectively implementing large-scale grants made available by funding bodies such as the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, the World Bank, and bilateral actors. They require rapid and adequate technical support to effectively implement AIDS programmes. To address this implementation challenge, UNAIDS has taken a leading role in "making the money work" in countries. It has invested significant resources over the past two years in strengthening countries' national AIDS programmes, particularly through the establishment of Technical Support Facilities in five regions.

Global Fund-supported programmes' contribution to international targets and the Millennium Development Goals: An initial analysis.
Bulletin of the World Health Organization. 2007 Oct; 85(10):805-811.The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria is one of the largest funders to fight these diseases. This paper discusses the programmatic contribution of Global Fund-supported programmes towards achieving international targets and Millennium Development Goals, using data from Global Fund grants. Results until June 2006 of 333 grants supported by the Global Fund in 127 countries were aggregated and compared against international targets for HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria. Progress reports to the Global Fund secretariat were used as a basis to calculate results. Service delivery indicators for antiretrovirals (ARV) for HIV/AIDS, case detection under the DOTS strategy for tuberculosis (DOTS) and insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) for malaria prevention were selected to estimate programmatic contributions to international targets for the three diseases. Targets of Global Fund-supported programmes were projected based on proposals for Rounds 1 to 4 and compared to international targets for 2009. Results for Global Fund-supported programmes total 544 000 people on ARV, 1.4 million on DOTS and 11.3 million for ITNs by June 2006. Global Fund-supported programmes contributed 18% of international ARV targets, 29% of DOTS targets and 9% of ITNs in sub-Saharan Africa by mid-2006. Existing Global Fund-supported programmes have agreed targets that are projected to account for 19% of the international target for ARV delivery expected for 2009, 28% of the international target for DOTS and 84% of ITN targets in sub-Saharan Africa. Global Fund-supported programmes have already contributed substantially to international targets by mid-2006, but there is a still significant gap.

Journal of Infectious Diseases. 2007 Aug; 196 Suppl 1:S4-.This supplement to the Journal of Infectious Diseases on tuberculosis (TB)/HIV coinfection came together as a result of a collaboration between the National Institutes of Health (NIH)-funded Centers for AIDS Research (CFARs) at Harvard University and at the University of Pennsylvania, and the Forum for Collaborative HIV Research. It is based on 2 programs addressing TB/HIV coinfection research challenges. A steering committee, consisting of Bruce Walker, Edward Nardell, Megan Murray, and Eric Rubin (Harvard University); Gerald Friedland (Yale University); and James Hoxie (University of Pennsylvania); with the support of the national network of CFARs, organized a symposium entitled "Confronting TB/HIV Co-infection" that was held on 30 June 2005 at Harvard University. The Forum for Collaborative HIV Research, together with the International AIDS Society and the Agence National de Recherches sur le Sida et les Hepatites Virales, with special support from Tibotec, sponsored a special session entitled "HIV/TB: New Visions, New Directions" during the 3rd International AIDS Society Conference on HIV Pathogenesis and Treatment in Rio de Janeiro on 25 July 2005, followed by a roundtable discussion with representatives from the World Health Organization HIV/ AIDS and Stop TB departments; the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria; the NIH; the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC); and leaders from the pharmaceutical industry, research networks, and advocacy organizations.

Reviewing World Bank-financed health projects in Asia.
ARROWs for Change. 2003; 9(3):12.The World Bank is financing health sector reforms in low-income and middle-income countries of Asia. A review of community participation and accountability strategies within nine World Bank-financed projects (see table) spanning nine Asian countries reveals that most of them envisage some form of community and NGO participation and accountability. Women constitute an important target group of all the nine projects, with maternal and child health services being a priority in eight and improving access to contraception in five. However, few projects envisage community participation in design and policy formulation, provision of comprehensive sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services, and services for adolescents, men and sex workers.

Achieving the Millennium Development Goals in sub-Saharan Africa: a macroeconomic monitoring framework.
World Economy. 2006; 29(11):1519-1547.3,000 Africans die every day of a mosquito bite. Can you think about that, malaria? That's not acceptable in the 21st century and we can stop it. And water-borne illnesses - dirty water takes another 3,000 lives - children, mothers, sisters . . . If we're to take this issue seriously, and we must, because in 50 years, you know, when they [G-8 Heads of State] look back at this moment . . . they'll talk about what we did or didn't do about this continent bursting into flames. It is the most extraordinary thing to watch people dying three in a bed, two on top and one underneath, as I have seen in Lilongwe, Malawi. I mean, it is an astonishing thing. And it's avoidable. It's an avoidable catastrophe. You saw what happened with the tsunami. You see the outpouring, you see the dramatic pictures. Well, there's a tsunami happening every month in Africa, but it's an avoidable catastrophe. It is not a natural calamity. (author's)
A healthy partnership -- a case study of the MOH contract to KHANA for disbursement of World Bank funds for HIV / AIDS in Cambodia.
[Brighton, England], International HIV / AIDS Alliance, 2005 Mar. 12 p.In 1998, the Cambodian Ministry of Health was experiencing difficulties in disbursing World Bank funds earmarked for local NGOs/CBOs, and in 1999, contracted Khana to manage the disbursement process. Given the scarcity of documented successful government-NGO/CBO disbursement initiatives, the Alliance commissioned a case study of this mechanism of making World Bank funds more accessible to civil society organisations. This report of the case study outlines the background and context to adopting the disbursement mechanism, explains the selection of the disbursing agency and the process of contract negotiation, details the nature and quantity of the disbursement, and identifies the strengths, weaknesses and lessons learned from this model.

Fifth round of funding adds $729 to fight against diseases.
Mera. 2006 Jan; (21):3-4.The Global Fund is a unique global public-private partnership dedicated to attracting and disbursing additional resources to prevent and treat HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria. This partnership between governments, civil society, the private sector and affected communities represents a new approach to international health financing. The Fund works in close collaboration with other bilateral and multilateral organisations to supplement existing efforts dealing with the three diseases. Apart from a high standard of technical quality, the Global Fund attaches no conditions to any of its grants. It is not an implementing agency, instead relying on local ownership and planning to ensure that new resources are directed to programmes on the frontline of this global effort to reach those most in need. Its performance-based approach to grant-making is designed to ensure that funds are used efficiently and create real change for people and communities. (excerpt)
Final technical report to the United States Agency for International Development (USAID): Strengthening Nutrition Management in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, Grant No. 294-G-00-04-00208-00.
Geneva, Switzerland, WHO, 2006. 6 p. (USAID Development Experience Clearinghouse DocID / Order No: PD-ACH-528; USAID Grant No. 294-G-00-04-00208-00)The general objective of the project is to strengthen the MoH Nutrition Department (ND) in order to achieve an effective, sustainable and functioning body in the area of nutrition. The Nutrition Department will be in charge of policy, planning, monitoring, evaluation and coordination, considering both short-term emergency interventions and long-term activities related to nutrition.

Making services youth-friendly with limited resources.
New York, New York, IPPF, WHR, 2005 Jan. [2] p. (IPPF / WHR Spotlight on Youth)For more than a decade, the International Planned Parenthood Federation/Western Hemisphere Region (IPPF/WHR) and its member associations in Latin America and the Caribbean have worked to address the sexual and reproductive health needs of adolescents and young people. Early on, it became clear that effectively reaching youth would require formulating and adopting a new model of youth-friendly service provision. Creating these services would involve sensitizing and training staff to young people's rights and needs; creating separate waiting rooms, spaces, or clinics where youth would feel comfortable; and developing educational materials that would be attractive to youth. In November 2002, IPPF/WHR held a workshop with medical providers and youth program coordinators from 11 associations in Latin America to improve their capacity to provide youth-friendly sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services. The workshop addressed: understanding how adolescent needs differ from adult needs; viewing SRH and services through the framework of youth rights; components of youth-friendly services and their implementation; communicating with youth about SRH; and review and distribution of tools for strengthening youth-friendly services.

WHO grant helps Ukraine combat tuberculosis.
Connections. 2006 Jan; [2] p.In September 2005, the World Health Organization (WHO) awarded Ukraine a 2.5 million dollar grant to combat the country's growing tuberculosis epidemic, according to Mykola Polischuk, who was Minister of Health at the time the grant was awarded. This funding will provide for the purchase of high-quality medications and allow for the cost-effective treatment of 75,000 patients over three years beginning in January 2006. The new treatment program will employ the DOTS (Directly Observed Therapy-Short Course) strategy, which has been recognized as the world's best strategy for fighting TB largely due to its reliance on cheaper microbiological methods of diagnosis rather than X-rays. Patients are first identified using microscopy services then prescribed the correct dosage of anti-TB medicines for a period of six to eight months. If administered accurately, DOTS can successfully treat TB in 99 percent of cases. Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko echoed WHO's decision to increase TB funding in October when he pledged to increase health funding, restore the country's failing health system, and fight the spread of HIV and tuberculosis, according to the Associated Press. (excerpt)
Global Fund suspends grants to Burma.
Lancet Infectious Diseases. 2006 Jan; 6(1):14.Burma's Health Minister Kyaw Myint has sharply criticised a decision by the Global Fund To Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria to cancel grants worth US$98.4 million it approved in Nov 2004 and Jan 2005 to combat the three diseases in the country over the next 5 years. "Temporary restrictions on travel, that since have been relaxed, were not adequate reasons to cancel the grants", Myint said. He complained that the Global Fund did not warn his country of its intended action and warned that the termination would affect millions of people suffering from or at risk of HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria in the country. Peter Newsum of CARE Myanmar believes the Fund's decision to cancel the grants will have a major impact on the work of organisations involved in combating the diseases in the country. (excerpt)
The World Health Organization and the transition from "international" to "global" public health.
American Journal of Public Health. 2006 Jan; 96(1):62-72.The term "global health" is rapidly replacing the older terminology of "international health." We describe the role of the World Health Organization (WHO) in both international and global health and in the transition from one to the other. We suggest that the term "global health" emerged as part of larger political and historical processes, in which WHO found its dominant role challenged and began to reposition itself within a shifting set of power alliances. Between 1948 and 1998, WHO moved from being the unquestioned leader of international health to being an organization in crisis, facing budget shortfalls and diminished status, especially given the growing influence of new and powerful players. We argue that WHO began to refashion itself as the coordinator, strategic planner, and leader of global health initiatives as a strategy of survival in response to this transformed international political context.

International assistance to women's organizations. [Ayuda internacional a las organizaciones femeninas]
In: Women and civil war. Impact, organizations, and action, edited by Krishna Kumar. Boulder, Colorado, Lynne Rienner Publishers, 2001. 205-214.Several factors have led the international donor community to support women's organizations both during and after conflict. One obvious factor is that because of lack of resources, shortage of skilled personnel, and general decline in the morale of the staff, public bureaucracies become extremely fragile in war-torn societies. They are often unable to provide urgently needed social services to the suffering populace. Therefore, the international community tends to develop partnerships with voluntary organizations, including women's organizations, to provide essential assistance to the needy people. There are two additional reasons for the international donor community to support women's organizations. First, by virtue of their leadership and commitment, these organizations are better able to reach women than are male-dominated or mixed civil-society organizations. Their staff members can easily empathize with the intended women beneficiaries, who in turn feel more at ease in sharing their problems with them. Second, the international community also sees in women's organizations potential for empowering women. In addition to channeling assistance, they contribute to the social and psychological empowerment of women by teaching self-reliance and leadership skills. (excerpt)
FIGO and women's health 2000 - 2003.
International Journal of Gynecology and Obstetrics. 2003 Sep; 82(3):357-367.The International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics – FIGO – has been striving hard to carefully attend to women's well-being, and respect and implement their rights, the status and their health, which is well beyond the basic obstetric and gynecological requirement. FIGO is deeply involved in acting as a catalyst for the all-round activities of national obstetric and gynecologic societies to mobilise their members to participate in and contribute to, all of their endeavours. FIGO's committees strengthen these objectives and FIGO's alliance with WHO provides a springboard. The task is gigantic, but FIGO, through national obstetric and gynecological societies and with the strength of obstetricians and gynecologists as its battalion, can offer to combat and meet the demands.

Sara (played by Han Ye-seul) is one of those amazing beauties you only see on-screen that manages to attract a giant crowd of onlookers through the sheer magnetic power of her appearance. This is a dumb joke and "Birth of a Beauty" takes it to a really weird extreme. That coupled with the lack of any apparent plot had me frequently scratching my head at the beginning of this drama, wondering what exactly the storyline was even supposed to be about.
Then we get to the story of Geum-ran (played by Ha Jae-sook). And I really, honestly, cannot understate how incredibly bizarre the tonal shift is. We're coming in right at the end of one of those old fairy tales where the ugly person is about to turn into a beautiful person and thus reward all the wonderful folks in their life who have been so kind and understanding about true beauty really being on the inside.
Ugh, I can barely even write that sentence without rolling my eyeballs. Everybody knows that's a bunch of malarkey. Except Geum-ran, who's left to find out how horrible the world really is in regards to physical appearances. Everything about her story is amazingly strange and demented. If this is a fairy tale, it's a fairy tale told by someone who wants to give the child social anxiety and visceral fear for the rest of their life about how evil people really are and that anything which seems too good to be true probably is.
And what does any of this have to do with Sara? Well, that part gets...implausible, to say the least. Tae-hee (played by Joo Sang-wook) isn't a wizard or anything implausible like that. But his backstory would have made a lot more sense if he was, in fact, some kind of magical creature. The strained logic used to set "Birth of a Beauty" up is convoluted to the point of incomprehensibility.
But then, so far this drama looks more like a fairy tale gone wrong than anything that resembles reality in any way, so I'm not really that worried about the premise. I'm more kind of perplexed as how a balance is possibly going to be struck with the tone. This is going to be a comedy about the crazy things people will do for beauty, and also a revenge thriller against Prince Charming? How is that possibly supposed to work? Well, my interest has been piqued, so "Birth of a Beauty" at least has a strong hook going for it.

I am thinking about getting a Chameleon as my new single speed frame. Can anyone let me know how difficult it is to set up disc brakes on it?
You might want to check out the Santa Cruz board. I know there are a few guys over there who are running them as SS with discs....
32x18, 34x18 BB7's no problems
32x20 with hayes hydros, no problem either. It's not an issue of diificulty if you have the right gear combo. It either works or it doesn't, when it doesn't the caliper will rub and or prevent the disc from turning.
Good luck.
Disclaimer: I fix bikes for a living.
32x16, 32x17, and 34x16 works too with a Juicy7.
32 x 18 XTR disc's
I had a chameleon for a few weeks at the beginning of this season.
The disc mount is positioned so that the caliper is at the 12 o'clock on top of the rotor when the black inserts are installed for a geared bike.
If you want to take out the black inserts and run horizontals, you should keep the axle as close to the center as possible. Get a half link chain if it becomes an issue. That should keep you within +/- an eight inch of center.
32X19 with BB7s. Plenty of room for adjustment.
I have discovered that 20 x 32 and 18 x 32 works with Juicy 7's. The 20 x 32 requires a half link to keep the wheel centered in the drop outs. Thanks for the tips.
Glad you got it working...

Events - 14 Jun 19
The month-long art show "Eye to Eye – Avec ces yeux-là" featuring engraving and print pieces by Elianne Richard opens on Thursday, June 13th at 6 PM. Join us for refreshments and meet the artist! The exhibition, free and open to the public, continues until July 6th during opening hours.
In 2006 Elianne Richard was first introduced to metal engraving by Richard Chester, a specialist in multi-colored (polychromatic) engraving using the Hayter method. Her goal at the time was to learn how to use acid to prepare pieces for enameling, but she was intrigued by this method of inking an engraved metal plate with several colors at the same time, which would then produce beautiful polychrome and monochrome prints after just one pass through the press. The traditional approach requires several passes through the press, cleaning the plate and applying a different color each time to obtain a multi-colored result. Drawn by the beautiful results Elianne forgot about enameling for a time and devoted herself to learning the art of engraving.
Elianne says she enjoys the manual work that engraving demands (cutting, polishing, inking, wiping, etc.) as well as the astonishing softness and warmth that a plate can have. To her own surprise, she discovered a fascination with worlds of air and water, worlds of genesis, worlds of promise or worry. Her first pieces, in small colorful formats, have become increasingly bigger. She duplicates the same print multiple times on the same paper and does forms of collage. In fact, she has combined her two passions as she will use enameled plates to further adorn and enhance her engravings. Currently, she has started dabbling in black and white ink, which she says is a real luxury.
"I go where I want to go, starting from outside observation or from within myself, I search for each engraving, print, collage… a new perspective. " – Elianne Richard
