CNN's Cooper detonates Breitbart's NAACP applause falsehood
Andrew Breitbart has attempted to divert attention from his falsehoods about former USDA official Shirley Sherrod by claiming that her NAACP audience applauded "as she described how she maltreated the white farmer." While some in the media have uncritically forwarded his falsehood, CNN's Anderson Cooper has definitively exposed it as false.
Breitbart invents false claim that NAACP audience was "applauding" while Sherrod described discrimination
Breitbart: "The point" of tape is NAACP audience offered cheers and applause for discrimination without knowing that it was a "story of redemption." In a July 20 interview on Fox News' Hannity, Breitbart claimed that the real story revealed by his Sherrod clip is how "the audience was laughing and applauding as she described how she maltreated the white farmer." Breitbart also asked, "Did the people in the audience know that there was going to be a point of redemption?" After Sean Hannity replied "no," Breitbart said, "The point is that the NAACP at a dinner honoring this person is cheering on a person describing -- describing a white person as the other." Similarly, in a July 21 interview on ABC's Good Morning America, Breitbart claimed that his video shows that "at an NAACP event, people are applauding racism."
Breitbart offered a very different take in his original post. In his initial post on the Sherrod video, Breitbart described the audience reaction as only "nodding approval and murmurs of recognition and agreement."
CNN's Cooper dismantles Breitbart's false claims
Cooper: "The fact is, there was no applause when Ms. Sherrod was talking about the white farmer. Breitbart's claim that the audience was applauding as she " described how she maltreated the white farmer" is demonstrably false. Contrary to Breitbart's claim, the audience does not applaud or cheer at any point during the story about her interaction with the farmer. On his July 21 show, CNN's Anderson Cooper aired comments about "applause" Breitbart made on John King, USA and noted, "The fact is, there was no applause when Ms. Sherrod was talking about the white farmer." He added: "You know, Breitbart also said today that there were cheers over racist comments. Again, the facts do not bear him out."
NAACP chapter president: We were not "cheering racism." Also on Cooper's July 21 show, Hal Pressley, the president of the NAACP chapter that held the event, said that he was in attendance and that no one in the audience was "cheering racism," and that they "were acknowledging that we understand what she is saying, where she's coming from."
Speech attendee Pearson: "totally untrue" that "we were cheering something on and then ... learned something else about it." Another attendee, Olivia Pearson, told Cooper, "to say that, you know, we were cheering something on and then learned out -- and learned something else about it, that's totally untrue. I have known Shirley for -- for 11 years, and I know that that's not her character."
Other media uncritically reported Breitbart's falsehood
Wash. Times quotes Breitbart saying, "What you see on the video are people ... applauding her overt racism." The Washington Times wrote in a July 20 article:
Mr. Breitbart, whose Big Government blog posted the video, said Tuesday that the point was the NAACP audience's reaction to Mrs. Sherrod's account of her past actions.
"This was not about Shirley Sherrod. This was about the NAACP attacking the Tea Party and this is showing racism at an NAACP event. I did not ask for Shirley Sherrod to be fired," he told CNN, adding that Mrs. Sherrod "should have the right to defend herself. But what you see on the video are people ... applauding her overt racism that she is representing."
AP uncritically reports Breitbart said that "the video provides evidence of Georgia NAACP members applauding ... at racist behavior." On July 22, the Associated Press reported:
Breitbart did not immediately respond to an AP request for an interview.
But on ABC's "Good Morning America" Wednesday, he said his story "was not about Shirley Sherrod." Instead, he said, the video provides evidence of Georgia NAACP members applauding or laughing at racist behavior, at the same time national NAACP figures are criticizing the tea party movement for having members that express racist sentiments."

Because 950 JUST WASN'T ENOUGH.
GT Spirit reports that JMB Optimering is chip and ECU tuning a LaFerrari, because what works on an Opel Kadett GSi should work on Ferrari's hybrid hypercar, right? On Facebook, JMB states that the LaFerrari is "On a Visit. Nothing has been modified!"
TheSuperCarKids, however, expect 1050 PS (1035hp) for the car, all done before the Swedish owner even takes delivery of the vehicle in its original, woefully-underpowered form.
How the owner is expected to feel the difference between a 1035 horsepower LaFerrari and a 950 horsepower hard to imagine, GT Spirit points out. I doubt that the owner really cares about the power, so much as he wants to have the most unique, most powerful, most expensive Ferrari out there.

If you'd immediately dismissed Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters as another one of the abundant "dark fairy tale" movies currently cluttering the cultural landscape, well, I couldn't blame you, because I did the exact same thing. Which is why I was so pleasantly surprised by this new red-band trailer for the movie, which proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that Hansel and Gretel's tongues are planted firmly in their cheeks. It's almost a parody at this point, which is 100% all right with me. Honestly, how could I possibly not want to a movie about Hansel and Gretel fighting witches in the most graphically, hilariously violent ways possible, but which also includes the line "If there's one thing this job has taught me over the years... don't eat the fucking candy"? I'm not made of stone, people.

|Biking to increase aerobic capacity and work on our endurance
Well, I'm a bit late on this update as we are well underway in our prep phase for Sochi, but I'd like to share a few thoughts and memories of our pre- pre-season.
Beginning in early April we started laying a foundation of endurance and strength that supports our more quality efforts, which will come later in the training year. Basically our first three months are spent increasing total weekly volumes of endurance training and strength as our bodies adapt and we can handle the increasing load. This past week, for instance, I've built up to the point where I am doing 18 hours of cardio training, including one "race pace" effort and one sub-maximal workout, with the rest being primarily easy (or as we call it, level 1) training
Now that snow has left the foothills, we are breaking our training into running, cycling, roller skiing and, if we feel like getting up really early and driving to the mountains, some on-snow skiing as well. Now 18 hours does not sound like a lot but throw six to eight hours in the weight room doing heavy lifting on top of that and it starts to take its toll. To top it off my teammates and I have been doing actual road cycling events for our "race pace" efforts of the past few weeks and each race has been around 75-90 miles.
|Scout on the mountain with me
In any case, recovery in the form of stretching, ice baths and nutrition has been key to surviving these blocks and continuing to build a strong foundation from which we will start to build our peaks later on.
By the numbers:
1 dog named Scout who is so well trained I can't drop her anymore
4 Strava Koms so far this season on the bike
6 hours in the saddle Tuesday
57 cm vertical jump on Monday (hands on hips)
100 kg deadlift Wednesday
812 miles covered on bikes, skis and foot since April Fools' Day
5,000 average daily calorie intake
100,000 approximate total feet gained during training
And then there's 5 … the number of ice baths per week!

Despite a sub-.500 record, Jacksonville Post 265 has advanced to the American Legion state baseball tournament.
Post 265 pulled away with six runs in the bottom of the eighth inning en route to a 15-8 win over Morehead City Post 46 on Wednesday night at White Oak High School to win the best-of-five Area II-East series in four games.
Jacksonville (13-19), which finished third in the four-team Area II-East division, will now play in the state tournament, which starting July 25 in Wilson.

Disastrous Effects
This story appears in the January 2002 issue of Entrepreneurs Start-Ups magazine. Subscribe »
One of the 115 employees of New York City architectural firm Gruzen Samton were injured in the attacks on the World Trade Center. But the company's offices, located in a building practically across the street from the doomed south tower, didn't fare so well.
"When the tower collapsed, it destroyed the facade of our building, and the offices were a total loss," says company principal Mike Kazan, 54, who was working in the company's Washington, DC, satellite office the morning of the attacks. In addition to millions of dollars in burned and broken furnishings and equipment, Gruzen Samton's losses included paper records, computer data, and thousands of irreplaceable photographic slides documenting the company's many projects.
Kristin Rhyne was nowhere near the twin towers, the Pentagon or the Pennsylvania field where hijackers crashed airliners on September 11. But the 31-year-old founder of Boston's Polished Inc.saw her business suffer damage nearly as extreme as Gruzen Samton. Rhyne, a Harvard Business School graduate building a chain of airport beauty spas, is dealing with new security rules forcing her to develop new manicure techniques that don't require sharp metal tools that would bar her from selling the previously innocuous-seeming manicure sets. In the immediate aftermath, potential customers stayed away from airports in droves, and those who did travel were snared in long lines at security checkpoints. "Our services have come back to 75 or 80 percent what they were," says Rhyne. "But it's a difficult scenario."
Post-Terror Business
These entrepreneurs, scarred but not destroyed by the September attacks, are exemplars of a new, post-attack business mind-set. They're using their survivor mentality to salvage what they can from the ashes, whether figurative or actual, so their companies can survive. Meanwhile, they're creatively seeking ways to rebound and generate more opportunity than even before the attacks.
Has anything good come of the tragedy? Perhaps one thing: Entrepreneurs have learned they have unexpected allies. Gruzen Samton was able to get partially back up and working by relocating some employees in office space lent by other architectural firms. "These people, who are our competitors on a daily basis, were very gracious in providing space for us, even working over the weekend to move people around to provide space for our teams," Kazan says. Other entrepreneurs have found the federal government a willing assistant, as the SBA moved quickly to declare businesses first in lower Manhattan and then the whole region eligible for disaster aid and low-interest loans.
In Manahawkin, on the Jersey shore just south of New York City, Travel Emporiumco-owners Ann Bell, 59, and Marianne Newenhouse, 39, were pleasantly surprised to find their customers going out of their way to help their small agency as it suffered major revenue losses due to travel stalling after the attacks. "One guy called up and said he already had his airline tickets but he thought we might be able to use a car rental," Bell says. "He didn't say he could use it; he said we could use it. A lot of people were worried about us not just because we're their travel agent but because we're their friends."
Putting the Pieces Back Together
Dealing with disaster is a multipronged project. It may involve everything from assessing immediate needs to planning for new facilities, counseling grief-stricken employees, locating insurance policies, hiring interim managers to fill positions vacated by death or injury, and, if all goes well, communicating the news that you're back in business to concerned customers.
The first thing to do is take stock, says Marian McGovern, president of M Squared Inc., a San Francisco consultant clearinghouse that provided pro bono assistance to organizations dealing with the aftermath of the terror attacks. Recovering from a disaster requires first that you know as precisely as possible what has been lost in the form of buildings, equipment, furniture, information systems, data and, of course, people.
"Go through every aspect of the business and understand what has backup, what needs to be repaired, what has been totally destroyed," says McGovern. Department heads should come up with their own damage assessments, then present them to the CEO, so he or she can come up with a companywide tally.
In the real world, that can get messy. Gruzen Samton's offices, which the company had just paid $2.5 million to renovate, were unusable, with the building likely to be condemned. Computers and the phone system were destroyed. All paper records, including marketing materials, customer lists and the photo library, were burned or waterlogged beyond repair. A fireproof safe full of backed-up computer files survived, but the CD-ROMs it contained had melted from the intense heat, and the data was unretrievable.
There was some good news, however. Fire-resistant file cabinets containing computer tapes with additional backups survived. "There is a certain amount of reconstruction of data because we don't back up daily onto those tapes," says Kazan. "But we've recovered a good portion of the work we had in progress."
Resourcefulness is often key to recovering lost data after a disaster. Gerry Nolan, president of disaster recovery consulting firm Eagle Rock Alliancein West Orange, New Jersey, recommends that companies ask clients, vendors, strategic partners and even employees to scan the disk drives of their undamaged computers to see if useful files may have been stored on them. Gruzen Samton did just that, retrieving a number of computerized design files in the form of e-mail attachments that had been sent to consulting engineers. Some disaster survivors, Nolan adds, have been able to salvage damaged hardware as well as data by having useful information removed from damaged machines, then having the systems refurbished, reinstalled and reloaded with the data.
Another key ingredient helping Kazan and his company recover is adequate insurance protection, including business interruption coverage that helps pay salaries and otherwise cover the break in the normal routine. "The insurance companies stepped up right away and have been extremely cooperative," he says. "I believe we'll be covered for all our out-of-pocket costs."
Many firms' most serious immediate issue is how to return to efficient production. Kazan's people are used to working together but are now in seven scattered locations. "The inefficiencies [of] traveling and the lack of secure communications are a tremendous drain on [our] energies," Kazan says. While the company has located space farther uptown, it will take months to prepare it for occupancy, and Kazan is uncertain whether his employees will be able to return to anything like their usual efficiency in that time.
Planning for a backup physical location is one of the most frequently overlooked requirements of a disaster recovery plan, says Nolan. But, along with backing up data and arranging with telephone and Internet access providers to restore service as soon as possible after a disaster, it's one of the most important, he stresses.
Again, resourcefulness is vital to recovering in the event that your plans prove inadequate. You should make extra efforts to gain access to destroyed or damaged offices to see if there is a vital Web server or other piece of equipment or data you can bring out intact, Nolan says. Beyond that, he says, "you have to get creative." Consider any possible angle that could give you new space or more time to find it. For instance, you could ask customers to hold off on transactions you wouldn't be able to fulfill until you get into your new space. In addition, as many World Trade Center-area companies found, after a disaster is a good time to ask erstwhile competitors for a hand.
Market Disruption
Many industries are being harmed by the uncertainty following the terror attacks. Airlines, car rental companies, cruise lines, hotels, meeting planners, trade show companies, training firms and travel agencies are just a few of those reporting or expecting a falloff in trade. Ann Bell and her daughter Marianne Newwenhouse lost $30,000 in sales in just one mid-September morning, a hit that threatened to sink their three-person Manahawkin, New Jersey, travel agency. "It's a hell of a nut to crack," says Bell, who co-founded the company with Newenhouse 18 years ago. "It's almost like starting over."
Bell and Newenhouse soon reacted to the cutback by laying off their sole employee. Bell feared that wouldn't be enough, but soon cruise lines, hotels and airlines started offering sharply discounted fares and rates. The markdowns were enough to spur customers to begin calling again. Six weeks after the terror, she could report customers were coming in "like gangbusters."
Bell's experience highlights the importance of short-term cost-cutting and revenue-boosting, coupled with long-term patience. Mike Ross of the New York State Small Business Development Center (SBDC) in Albany says small firms should investigate the government-guaranteed loans--of up to $1.5 million on terms of up to 30 years and interest rates as low as 4 percent-that have been made available to small businesses in the impacted area.
But financial assistance may not be enough. SBDC advisors suggest many firms, especially those whose markets were seriously hit, look for new markets and even business models. "You could break out of the box you were working in before," Ross says, "and take a look at some new opportunities."
Down the Road
The experience of the terror survivors emphasizes the value of having insurance, backing up data, preparing for succession and, basically, having a plan. But merely putting the parts of a business back in place may not result in a fully functioning firm. Nolan says one study found that fewer than 7 percent of businesses that suffer a major disaster are still in business five years later. "They can sustain the loss," Nolan says. "But it changes the organization so dramatically that over time, surviving is tough."
What goes wrong? Often, it's loss of people. If the founder of a small company dies in a disaster, chances are good that the company will die as well. Take the case of Judith Larocque. The 50-year-old founder of Market Perspectives Inc. in Framingham, Massachusetts, was on American Airlines Flight 11, which crashed into the World Trade Center. After the attacks, Market Perspectives' phones were disconnected, its Web site taken offline, and its handful of employees dispersed.
When death unexpectedly claims any employee, expect to go through a significant grieving process. "It's almost the same as the loss of a family member-the stages of bereavement, the terrible sadness, the getting of support from others," says Rhoda Frindell Green, a New York City psychologist specializing in small-business issues. It's important to recognize that both entrepreneurs and employees will be distracted for a period after such a loss. "To expect ourselves or others to be producing just like we were before the catastrophe is not very realistic," Green says. She adds that each person affected by a loss grieves on an individual timetable, so entrepreneurs can't arbitrarily decide that in, say, three months everyone will be over it and business will be back to normal.
Many people and companies in the New York City area are seeking counseling to cope with the aftermath. But even with expert help, dealing with the loss of an employee requires levels of flexibility and sensitivity that many entrepreneurs find challenging. There are no simple, universal or quick solutions, Green says. "It's a question of being willing and able to entertain the massive amount of change that has to occur."
The attacks are reminders of the importance of planning for someone to replace you or other key executives in the event of a sudden need, says McGovern. But they are also gut-checks for entrepreneurs deciding where-and whether-they are going in the future. If the company's founders were just you and a few others, and one or more is dead, do you continue? Many companies are still making that decision and will be for months to come.
A Shot in the Arm
"Sold out" signs went up on flag stores everywhere as Americans, suffused with patriotic spirit and sadness, snapped up symbols of their country for display. Sales were also booming for such businesses as survival supply distributors and wedding chapels. Security companies, business aircraft dealers and insurance brokers may all get more business in both the near and intermediate terms. Still, it's hard to forecast how customers will respond over the long haul. As director of the Pace University Small Business Development Center in lower Manhattan, the closest SBDC to Ground Zero, Ira Davidson says he sees few permanent opportunities emerging from the attacks. "I don't think anything is in short supply," he says, "except large-scale commercial space in midtown."
Summing Up September 11
For Rhyne, new airport security regulations have forced her to speed up searches for nonairport expansion spots. "We've always had opportunities outside airports, but we're moving more aggressively on those fronts now," she says.
At Gruzen Samton, Kazan says his concern is for the intermediate term. "I'm not worried about six months down the road," he says. "But the general slowdown in business climate, our lack of focus on developing new business, and the diversion of our energies to solving this crisis will have an effect on us for a long time to come. It's going to be a real challenge going forward."
Almost as haunting as his worries about the future are Kazan's regrets for the past-specifically, the past Gruzen Samton lost when its trove of photographs of past projects was lost forever in the ashes. "We're forced to look into the future now," he says. "Because we don't have a past."
Hate Crimes on the Rise
Some businesses had a different kind of fallout from September 11. Within weeks of the attacks, the FBI was investigating more than 40 alleged hate crimes against Arab Americans, people of Middle Eastern descent and Muslim-owned or -operated businesses. Incidents ranged from broken windows and boycotts to arson and homicide.
"It's a tragedy for all Americans, but it's a double tragedy for Arab Americans," says Fuad Sahouri, owner of Sahouri Insurance & Associates in McLean, Virginia, and chair of the Arab American Business and Professional Association, a Washington, DC-based business group. The rash of reported crimes isn't the only outrage, says Sahouri. Many of his new customers are business owners who have been refused insurance service by other agencies. '"[Insurance agents] can tell by their accents that they are recent immigrants, and they don't even return their phone calls to give them quotes," Sahouri says.
The backlash is the worst in Sahouri's 31 years as an Arab American business owner. But it's not the first. Based on experience, he says the best thing entrepreneurs of any ethnic background can do to prevent similar occurrences is to build personal relationships with their local business communities. He acknowledges that it's difficult for busy entrepreneurs to find time to join service organizations, volunteer for social causes and contribute to local charities. But doing so makes it harder for people prone to quick judgments to lump you in with undesirables who share a similar background.

I have been in the military for almost six years now, and in just a month, I will be separated and no longer wearing this uniform. I am proud to have called myself an Airman in the USAF and am thankful for those who served before me, with me, and those who will serve after me."

Jonas Falk isn't swayed by the fact that he's competing with long-established, $50 billion companies. The young entrepreneur co-founded his company Organic Life to bring healthy, organic foods to the schools in the Illinois region, and it's a business idea that is working. In just seven years, he has grown Organic Life to become a $20 million company by serving great-tasting, healthy food to students at more than 400 schools.
It's an achievement that earned the 28-year-old CEO a slot on Forbes' magazine's annual "30 under 30" list. "It's a huge honor," Falk says from his offices north of Chicago. "You work hard every day, so to be recognized like this is overwhelming."
Falk first came up with the idea for what would become Organic Life in high school. He wrote up a business plan in college, but his professor wasn't impressed at the time. The paper earned a D, but that didn't stop him. Falk founded the company anyway and started cooking up menu ideas. "We didn't know any better," he says. "We just went ahead, signed the lease, went into a kitchen and started selling."
The company may not have had experience in food service when it started, but Falk says it did have three key principles: "serve great food, provide great service and make people happy every day." Their goal was to provide healthy food for school cafeterias that would still be tasty enough that kids would want to eat it. They hire top-of-the-line chefs for each school and buy only the best ingredients that they can find.
"You don't have to do a lot to change food services," Falk says. "We're going to take grass-fed beef and whole-wheat buns from a bakery that we love and that's going to be our cheeseburger, instead of taking grade-B meat and a processed hamburger bun." This is a big change for school cafeterias, where pizzas more often than not come to the schools frozen in cardboard boxes. Organic Life still offers pizzas, but they're made from scratch with fresh ingredients. "There's nothing wrong with pizza as long as the chefs are making the dough and tossing them in the air and cooking every day."
Falk says Organic Life stands apart from other companies in food service management, which control 98 percent of the market. "Being the new face on the block is what's most difficult in this business," he says. While schools may not always be completely happy with their current vendors, making a switch to a relatively new company with a different business model is seen as risky. "That was our biggest barrier at first getting into the business."
But the once-derided "D-grade" business model has proven successful. Falk says his company's food is not just healthier — it tastes better. More kids buy it, allowing them to use more expensive organic ingredients while still earning a healthy profit. "If we serve this food that's remarkably better than our competitors, we're going to do twice the amount of sales," he says. This helps them grow what would have been a $1 million contract with a school district into a $2 million contract, "because 100 percent of the kids are going to come and eat every day instead of 50 percent. If we can serve 200 meals a day instead of 100 meals, we can have that same $3 price as our competitors."
Organic Life, which also provides organic catering services, continues to grow. Over the next two year the company plans to expand to neighboring Wisconsin, Ohio and Indiana. "We've gone from zero to $20 million," Falk says. "We want to make sure we're serving the same great food at $200 million. It's a tiny, tiny number for food-service management, but it's exciting to see the response and serve people good food every day."

Chemotherapy Center grand opening at Mammoth Hospital
Mammoth Hospital announced the opening of a newly renovated and redesigned Chemotherapy Infusion Center, to facilitate access to cancer care services in the Eastern Sierra.
The new chemotherapy center was made possible by donations from Dave and Roma McCoy, as well as Medical Imaging Director, Dr. Yuri Parisky in collaboration with Dancing with the Docs.
Interior designer Nicole Cavanaugh of Cavanaugh Design Group and Nancy Ballard, Executive Director of Rooms That Rock 4 Chemo volunteered their time to bring the outdated room to life.
"The room is much more beautiful than we could have ever imagined. Thanks to all the volunteers and donations, patients will receive their chemotherapy in this peaceful, tranquil room for years to come," said RN Barbara Goodwill.
Victor Hernandez, local cancer patient, did the honor of cutting the ribbon alongside several volunteers, hospital staff and contributors to the project.
The finished design boasts comfortable surroundings, from new updated furniture and lighting, to a stone wall with built-in fireplace.
The updated look incorporates comfortable leather recliners with curtains that extend out for patient privacy.
Chemotherapy Manager, Erica Wells, BSN, was very pleased in seeing the finished design.
"Nicole Cavanaugh infused this project with generosity and compassion, and the redesigned Chemotherapy Infusion Room reflects this and so much more. What was once a sterile and cluttered room has been transformed into a warm, comfortable, and calm space with Nicole's inspiration and expertise. We set out to create an environment where chemotherapy patients could relax and be cared for, and at the same time, not feel as though they are in a clinical hospital space.
"This room far surpassed our expectations and we hope that anyone receiving chemotherapy at Mammoth Hospital will find comfort in this special place. Thank you to Nancy Ballard from Rooms that Rock 4 Chemo and Nicole Cavanaugh of Cavanaugh Design Group for volunteering and spending countless hours toward making this project an overwhelming success."

Interview: Regional Humanitarian Coordinator for the Sahel
TitleInterview: Regional Humanitarian Coordinator for the Sahel
06 Feb 2013
6 February 2013 - 1:28pm
Show Image
David Gressly on responding to the multiple crises in the region.
In 2012, aid organizations warned that about 18 million people were affected by the food and nutrition crisis across West Africa's Sahel region. Drought, poor food production and chronic poverty left many families dependent on aid to cope with the crisis in nine countries: Burkina Faso, Chad, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Senegal, the Gambia, Cameroon and Nigeria.
Conflict and insecurity in northern Mali compounded the crisis and resulted in the displacement of almost 380,000 people who sought refuge further south or in neighbouring countries, stretching the resources of local communities hosting them.
Despite some progress in food security due to better rains and harvests in the second half of 2012, the conflict in northern Mali continues to exacerbate the humanitarian crisis in the Sahel region. In January 2013, nearly 18,000 people fled the conflict to neighbouring countries such as Mauritania, Niger and Burkina Faso.
In this interview, Regional Humanitarian Coordinator for the Sahel David Gressly talks about the impact of the current fighting in Mali, the regional humanitarian response in 2012, and the need to translate the Sahel Resilience Strategy into reality to help people cope with a recurrent food and nutrition crisis.
Q: Thousands of people have been displaced by the latest fighting in central and northern Mali. What are UN agencies and humanitarian partners doing to help them?
We have been working very hard to continue finding ways to access people throughout Mali, not just in the central and the north areas. As the confrontation line moves north, as they have in the last few weeks, we need to find ways to move with that to reach more people in need. We are looking for ways to access people who remain isolated and don't receive any food, either commercially or through our assistance, because the borders are closed.
We have access back into central Mali where we are reinforcing our presence as a logistics base for the area. We are now able to again start sending supplies northward towards Timbuktu.
We are also looking at the possibility of air-dropping food if that is what is required. We will probably access more people if we work with the Malian authorities, as more towns open up to the authorities and the intervention forces.
It is important to keep in mind that the conflict in northern Mali is adding to a broad chronic crisis across the Sahel, in which millions of people have been affected by food insecurity. We project that 10 million people across the Sahel this year, including 2 million in Mali will be affected.
Q. You have been the Regional Humanitarian Coordinator since April 2012. What are some of the significant changes you have seen in the region since then?
The food and nutrition crisis in the Sahel affected about 18 million people last year. We projected that over a million children will be affected by severe acute malnutrition, and all of this was linked to the drought of 2011. So, the first thing we did was to address that particular crisis. I've seen many assessments and, in general, the response has been considered a success. First of all, the Governments in the region signalled much earlier that there is going to be a problem. This helped mobilize the resources from major donors to be put in place in time.
We started seeing significant resources come in in March, April and May of last year. With a massive humanitarian response on the ground in the nine affected countries, we were able to avert a catastrophe, and the food and nutrition crisis was contained. Unfortunately, playing in the back of all this is the crisis in Mali, which had put a special burden on the food and nutrition crisis. We had to organize ourselves for that crisis as well.
Now, the key is to know how to deal with the chronic nature of the food insecurity and malnutrition across the Sahel. We have to work with our development partners to see if we can put an end to the cycle of drought and food insecurity.
Q. The Sahel Resilience Strategy is aimed at bringing Governments, humanitarian agencies, NGOs and development partners together to help people cope with recurrent droughts, floods and conflict. Is the strategy working?
What is important is the collaboration between partners and the understanding that we need to work together in the long term, not just for one or two years. This is a 10- to 20-year project if we plan to bring real change to the Sahel. I think that the foundation to build resilience is now in place. In 2013, we need to make sure that the concepts of resilience are put in place in real operational terms.
On the humanitarian side, there are a few things we can do to contribute to that. Firstly, we have experience dealing with droughts in the region and know what communities are affected by them. I now ask that we map those communities and share that information with development partners who can implement longer-term solutions.

I love his passion but in one minute he lost the ball twice. I also thought Nordviet would start, except for Calleri the same team has done well so why change.

he dives in to much mate, they will try to bait him now and that's a risk. If I was Slav I would not send him out in the second half, if he lasts that long. The thing that pisses me off with him is he doesn't have to do it.

Should have stuck with him earlier in the season, we would have been further up the ladder.
Fri, 05/05/2017 - 20:35
Apart from those two minutes earlier, we haven't allowed them to settle on the ball. Our defence looks solid and Koyoute is everywhere. Even Caleiri is showing some good touches. Can we keep this up for ninty?

to West Ham players, manager, club and fans. This was an unbelievable performance. A famous victory. I had lost the faith, but the one thing every West Ham fan should know, is that just when you think you can write this team off, you can't. Glory be. I'm gobsmacked.
And by the way we are mathematically safe now!

if it didnt happin naturally nuthin happin :)
I have stage 4 breast cancer that has spread to my lymph nodes and liver. Am trying to make the change over to vegan diet.
Watching a documentary on the Gerson Therapy completely and I mean completely rocked my world. It led me back the world of vegetarianism. Then I read Brendan Brazier's THRIVE books and went vegan. And ultimately I found Dr. Doug Graham and I am pushing ahead. I have been on a whirlwind of health and wellness knowledge seeking for 2 years. At age 20 I have had my own health issues. I had a tumor in my ear when I was 2. I had 7 surgeries from the age of 2.5 to 6. And then for most of my life growing up I suffered from allergies and sinus issues. Those have since been completely reduced and I would venture to say almost cured. The vegan lifestyle helped, and the raw lifestyle is really helping. Like all illnesses I believe cancer to be curable.
Hello B,jaia. Very good to hear from you again! You seem to make more sense than 90% of the people I've talked with in the last few years!
Well, I will check out the Gerson program, as you suggest. My problem right now is that I'm living in poverty (on Social Security, that is) and I'd like to avoid spending any money that I don't have to spend. This group is very good for that. And, at present, my doctor at the V.A. is telling me that I don't have cancer...but I don't trust doctors--especially "for-profit" doctors, if you know what I mean.
It seems possible--but improbable--that I had cancer two years ago and now I don't, which is what my doctor says. What makes more sense to me is that my doctor is playing games with me and I don't know what to think!
In any case, I believe that it is wise for me to do everything I can do to arrest and reverse obesity-related, chronic, degenerative diseases; like cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease(s), sleep apnea, arthritis, dementia, etc., etc., etc. At age 69 I don't need a doctor to tell me that I'm borderline on all counts.
So two years ago I was eating 1/2 gal. ice cream, a couple large pizzas, bacon, eggs, pancakes, etc. every week! Now I have tapered off to a slip or two every couple of weeks. At present I have 10 days as a 100% LFRV. So I've cut down, but I haven't detoxified. And that's what makes me skeptical about any doctor telling me that I have reversed cancer, diabetes, heart disease, etc.
One thing I hope to do is to make a complete and permanent lifestyle change. Another thing I'm thinking is about beginning a water fast to detoxify.
What do you think?
Lee, one other quick comment. If you should decide to go the route of fasting please make sure it is under the guidance of a qualified health professional. My friend did his fast while under the supervision of a health professional. During a prolonged fast one must be aware that there body chemistry does not get out of balance.
Hello Lee. Good to hear from you again, although you seem to be going through some challenges. This is a quick response to your most recent posting.
The man you speak about who fasted for 90 days, I personally know him, a friend of mine. He is a man of high integrity. I am not sure of the whole situation, however he did fast from all solid food for ninety days. During those 90 days he drank water and had a lot of wheat grass juice. (Wheat grass juice is great for alkalizing the body, which in turn reverses disease and maintains health.) He may have had some other fresh juices, but on that I am not sure. I do know that there is research out there that supports fasting as a way of reversing disease, but in this moment cannot give you a specific place to go. To do a 90 fast as he mentioned takes a lot of discipline and will power. For the moment I would like to recommend for you to research the Gerson Institute. They are 100% natural and have a very good track record. You can find them on line at, www.Gerson.org I encourage you to go through the many layers of there web page. A lot of good info. I know of several people who have went to the Gerson Institute and have reversed there cancer, and all with no chemo, drugs, etc. All based on a vegan diet. My own personal research had me look into the Gerson Institute and I applied some of there approaches for my personal healing.
I hope this is of some help. Let us know how you make out.
Is there any support for fasting as a way to cure cancer? I just read a personal account in the Raw Health Forum by a man who says his doctor sent him home to die, after telling him that he had Stage IV cancer. He fasted 90 days and walked away cured!
I don't know whether to believe that or not either! There's no credibility check on the internet!
I have trouble trusting my doctor. On April 2010 she told me that I had a cyst on the head of my right humerus that was possibly cancerous. She also said I had a 5mm nodule in the lower lobe of my right lung that was possibly cancerous. Then she said that I had paraprotienemias that indicated I had blood cancer. I also complained about osteoarthritis and she started setting me up for all kinds of X-rays and CAT scans, etc.
I declined some of the Xrays and one of the CAT scans and said there was no need taking a fasting blood sample on the day she requested it because I had been binging on ice cream and pizza the week before.
So the next time I had an appointment with this doctor she said there was no sign of any cancer in my body!
And, you know what? I don't believe her! I believe that she is one of those "my way or the highway doctors," who does not want to work with someone who does not worship doctors; someone who prefers to take responsibiltiy for his own recovery. We were having regular meetings every 6 months and it is now approaching a year since I have seen her.
This is a V. A. doctor, so I can request a meeting, but I'm getting the distinct feeling that I cannot trust this doctor. I think she may have tried to scare me. I think that she has the idea that what she says is "my way or the highway." I just don't trust doctors.
So now I'm on Day 6 of my latest attempt at detox, weight-loss, and arresting obesity-related, chronic, degenerative diseases with a 100% LFRV diet, exercise and sleep program. If, and when, I can make it to 2 months of 100% as a LFRV I plan to go in for a blood test. In April, I plan to request a CAT scan. And that's my new treatment for cancer, diabetes and heart disease.
Am I making a mistake in this approach? Should I be getting all kinds of Xrays, CAT scans and medications? Should I be taking radiation and chemo therapy? Should I check into a nursing home?
Frankly, I think I would prefer to put a plastic bag over my head before I do any of those things. At least, that's the way I feel about it now. Actually, on Day 6 of my program I'm beginning to feel better (no sugar, salt, gluten, animal products, dairy, chemicals, preservatives, etc). I really can't say how I would feel when it's time to put a plastic bag over my head!
Your story is amazing, GoddessofGreen!
Tenanda, This looks like a really good evening of expanding into natural ways of reversing cancer. Thanks for this info.

A new online approach to an electrical engineering course at San Jose State University saw fewer students failing the class and will be expanded to other California State University campuses in the fall, officials said Wednesday.
The course was offered as a collaboration between the public university and edX, an online provider.
San Jose officials say they've seen the number of students passing an Introduction to Circuits Analysis course jump to 91 percent for those taking the "flipped" class, up from 59 percent of the students in the traditional class. In the flipped format, students watch videotaped lectures, take quizzes and participate in virtual labs over the Internet and then work through problem sets in the classroom with their instructor.
Under an agreement signed Wednesday, edX, a not-for-profit learning enterprise founded by Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, will expand its collaboration with San Jose State to include three to five additional for-credit courses in the fall.
In addition, up to 11 CSU campuses will have the opportunity to offer the online course, with faculty invited to attend training sessions in San Jose this summer.
EdX, which offers massive open online courses or MOOCs, will be receiving a licensing fee from CSU for the classes, although details of the arrangement have not yet been worked out, said edX president Anant Agarwal.
San Diego State University will not be offering the "flipped" engineering course as administrators weigh the benefits of such an approach.
"We are exploring the advantages and disadvantages of these types of courses in our engineering program and we will be watching what San Jose State does very closely," SDSU spokesman Greg Block said.
As a news conference in San Jose announcing the partnership, Lt. Governor Gavin Newsom talked about watching his very young daughter playing with his iPad and realizing that her generation is "wired differently" and will need new ways of learning.
"These digital native cannot be educated like we were educated," he said. He said California's public universities and colleges need to embrace new educational models in order to expand access, cut costs and most importantly, create more college graduates who can compete in the global economy.
"This is a different pedagogy in terms of educational experience. It is extraordinarily exciting," he said.
San Jose State University Lecturer Khosrow Ghadiri, who teaches the circuits analysis course, said in his traditional class he was lucky if students asked two or three questions during a class and often felt like he lost their attention 15 to 30 minutes into the lecture.
In the new model, students take group and individual quizzes in every meeting and can get more individualized attention to problems they don't understand. And, if students miss a class, he sends them an email, noting the absence and sending them the in-class quizzes they missed.
San Jose State student Sara Compton said she likes the blended format of the class because she can watch the videotaped lectures more than once if she needs more help and or when studying for exams. "Sometimes it is hard to catch everything that is said in a traditional lecture," she said. "I can't write that fast. So sometimes I miss things. In this lecture, you can go back and play it again."
