I put the word books in quotation marks because the two I'm going to mention are closer to multimedia products than they are books. This is not a bad thing. In fact, I could recommend you check each out just on that fact alone.

The laws that are governing online music share sites were written at a time when our online and real-life landscapes were totally different. Our marching orders are coming from a place that's completely out of touch and irrelevant. They have these legal legs to stand on that empower them to make life kind of a pain-in-the-ass for people like me. And for many of you. Countless artists have launched their careers though mash ups, bootlegs, remixes and music sharing. These laws and page take-downs are cutting us down at the knees.
And yo, musicians definitely need knees.
Nestle continues to sell bottled water sourced from California despite record drought
California is facing one of its most severe droughts on record, which is hurting farmers and recreation alike. But despite water restrictions, Nestle is bottling spring water from the state and selling it, creating controversy alongside profits.
Nestle owns Arrowhead Mountain Spring Water, which has been bottling water from a spring in Millard Canyon, Calif. for more than a decade. The company's 383,000-square-foot bottling plant, which also packages purified water under the Nestle Pure Life brand, is located on the Morongo Band of Mission Indians reservation.
In January, Gov. Jerry Brown (D-Calif.) declared a drought state of emergency in preparation for water shortages, especially during the summer months. The drought has entered its third year, and water restrictions have increased throughout the Golden State.

WhatsApp Inc. is an early stage technology startup founded in the heart of Silicon Valley. What does the name mean you ask? Well, WhatsApp is a pun on What's Up in case you didn't get it yet:)
Because we want to build a better SMS alternative. Because we believe we can. Because someday very soon everybody will have a Smartphone.
WhatsApp was founded by two guys who spent combined 20 years doing geeky stuff at Yahoo! Inc.
before starting WhatsApp Inc.
How it works
WhatsApp Messenger is a cross-platform mobile messaging app which allows you to exchange messages without having to pay for SMS. WhatsApp Messenger is available for iPhone, BlackBerry, Android, Windows Phone and Nokia and yes, those phones can all message each other! Because WhatsApp Messenger uses the same internet data plan that you use for email and web browsing, there is no cost to message and stay in touch with your friends.
In addition to basic messaging WhatsApp users can create groups, send each other unlimited images, video and audio media messages.
Why we don't sell ads
Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we dont need. - Tyler Durden, Fight Club
Brian and I spent a combined 20 years at Yahoo! working hard to keep the site working. And yes, working hard to sell ads, because that's what Yahoo! did. It gathered data and it served pages and it sold ads. We watched Yahoo! get eclipsed in size by Google...

The PTA is an active and thriving association which forms an important part of school life for Fairfield families. All parents and staff are members and a committee is responsible for arranging an array of events throughout the year.
The PTA committee is made up of a group of elected parents and teachers which organises events that enable parents, teachers and children to socialise, have fun and raise money in the process. It is a social committee and does not have the ability to influence school policy.
The PTA has staged a wide variety of events, ranging from children's discos to parent's golf competitions, raising funds for the purchase of the school minibus, headphones for school iPads, contributing to the creation and development of the Fairfield Forest School, and many other wonderful things that benefit Fairfield children of all ages.
|Friday 8 June
|Afternoon Tea
|Pre-Prep Hall
|Monday 9 July
|Year 6 Leavers' Disco
|Eadon Hall
There are lots of ways to become involved with the PTA. We welcome new committee members, and invite parents to come along to support our events – we always appreciate extra pairs of hands! And if you have any suggestions for future events or fundraising ideas, please get in touch. You'll find a list of current committee members here. You are very welcome to approach committee members about any aspects of the PTA. Alternatively, please email us at [email protected]. We'd love to hear from you!
Festive fun for all the family at Fairfield PTA's Christmas is Coming
Oh what a night! The annual Fairfield PTA Christmas is Coming fair was held on Friday 27th November in the Eadon Hall. There was lots to see and do with dozens of stalls selling their wares and activities for both children and parents to enjoy. And on top of all of that, the children got to visit Santa's grotto. Santa was his usual cheerful self and was supported by his ever faithful Rudolf and the Elves.
Some of the activities included face painting, biscuit decorating, glitter nails and glitter tattoos. Mummies and Daddies were seen eagerly raffling for the bottle tombola and a similar enthusiasm was displayed by the children at the sweetie cup stall! A lot more happened on the night than can be described in words, so here are some of the highlights in our pictures gallery on the right hand side of this page.
As ever, the PTA committee could not have done it without the support of the whole school, including staff, parents and children, and for that we say a HUGE thank you.

Awesome!. I'd seen the Reuters photos discussed on other sites, but not the AP photo. They are busted again.
Serious question: How do we know the pictures were not taken in the order 3 - 2 - 1?
Really the only thing that may indicate he took them out of suitcase is doll clothes, unless, of course, he fixed the doll before putting it in the suitcase.
Note: I of course believe they go 1-2-3, but in terms of absolute concrete proof - what proof beyond reasonable doubt is there #1 was taken first chronologically?
I missed these photos on the front page of all the MSM papers today. I missed these photos on all the major TV channels. Did all the cowards in the US Congress get these photos? I'm sure that Barbara Boxer, Dianne Feinstein, Nancy Pelosi, Queen Hillary, Chuckie Schumer, Feingold, McCain, and the rest of the disbelievers are shocked. Wake up America!
Someone set us up the photos! All your photos are belong to us!
You've seen Slublog's thread on this? http://www.slublog.com/archives/2006/08/the_passion_of.html

If you look closely you can see that the Minnie Mouse doll had been photographed upstage, closer to the building. I guess it is possible he picked that up first then went down to the suitcase. But not very likely.
I am keeping a list of these.
What I find amazing is that this is nothing new. The MSM has known this type of thing has been going on for years and has not seen fit to raise a stink about it until the blogosphere caught them with their pants down.
These really need to circulate. Did Rush talk about it today?
Thanks for posting this TR.
Finally, some real reporting.
A toy lies among the wreckage of a demolished building in the Hizbollah stronghold that was targeted by Israeli air strikes in southern Beirut July 26, 2006. REUTERS/Sharif Karim(LEBANON)
Notice how dust resistant these toys are? Does anyone own a patent on that material?
Wow, those clean toys must have been magically shrinkwrapped before the explosion and the toys managed to remove the plastic wrap themselves!
A Lebanese man collects his belongings from his shop near a building that was targeted by Israeli air strikes in southern Beirut July 24, 2006. REUTERS/Sharif Karim
Notice how clean the little balls are. Again this dust repellant material is amazing!
So the AP and another Reuters photographer have been caught red-handed issuing propoganda for terrorists.
"Sharif and Mohamed seemed like such honest muslims. We certainly couldn't employ Buddhists in Lebanon."
"Reuters" sucks, bump!

Download citation file: RIS (Zotero) EndNote BibTex Medlars ProCite RefWorks Reference Manager Mendeley © Copyright Tools Search Book Top Return Clip Autosuggest Results Abstract Abstract Neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2) is an autosomal dominant disorder that affects approximately 1 in 40,000 individuals. It is characterized by the development of bilateral vestibular schwannomas and other histologically benign intracranial, spinal, and peripheral nerve tumors. The only nontumorous manifestations of NF2 are cataract and retinal hamartoma. NF2 is fully penetrant by age 60 years, and half of all cases represent new mutations. Syndromes related to NF2 include sporadic unilateral vestibular schwannoma, mosaic inactivation of the NF2 gene, schwannomatosis, and multiple meningiomas. NF2 is genetically and clinically distinct from von Recklinghausen disease or neurofibromatosis 1. Positional cloning identified the gene for NF2 on chromosome 22q. It spans 110 kb with 16 constitutive exons and 1 alternatively spliced exon. The NF2 protein product is a member of the protein 4.1 family of cytoskeleton-associated proteins. These proteins play a critical role in maintaining membrane stability and cell shape by connecting integral membrane proteins to the spectrin–actin lattice of the cytoskeleton. A large number of germ-line mutations have been detected in NF2 patients, with the majority predicted to result in gross protein truncation. Detection of somatic alterations in NF2-related tumors has supported the hypothesis that the NF2 gene acts as a true tumor suppressor in both schwannomas and meningiomas. NF2 also appears to play a role in the development of mesothelioma, although this tumor is not seen in patients with NF2. Diagnosis of NF2 is currently dependent on clinical criteria, although genetic diagnosis may soon be feasible. Treatment of NF2-related tumors remains largely surgical. Advances in hearing augmentation, such as auditory brainstem implants, may improve the quality of life for many patients.

Oklahoma is known as 'the Sooner state' in United States of America. It is considered to be situated in the south of the United States, but the fact is it is typically in the Southwest. It is highly influenced by the South American culture. It is also highly known for its arts and theater festivals. The fastest developing state in the United States is now becoming the biggest tourist attraction of the country. For all the Jazz fans this is the place where you want to be. It has a very prolific jazz culture in the state.
The people in Oklahoma are known to be having the typical southern hospitality. It is considered to be the 4th most generous culture in America. If you want to visit Oklahoma then here are the top 5 locations which you would like to go to in the state.
Oklahoma has some of the most beautiful resorts and amusement parks which you can visit when you are on a trip there. As it's known for its theatrical culture therefore you can be rest assured that you will be getting lot of locations which will be having the theme which are a little theatrical. Here are the top 5 locations which you need to visit in Oklahoma.
Here you will find the world's largest praying hands. This is placed in Tulsa. This is the largest bronze sculpture in the world. This amazing piece of art is approximately 60 feet tall and 30 tons heavy. The originally name of the largest hands was initially 'The Healing Hands'. This beautiful piece of art stands in front of the 'City of Faith'. This is a medical center which has devoted itself for faith healing all the people who come to the city. This property is owned by Robert Orals.
It is the ideal place for those who are seeking spiritual realization. The Oral Roberts Prayer tower is the magnet where all the spiritual people gather to experience the mesmerizing effect of the prayers there. The beauty of the tower is everyone gets to gather at the same tower. When asked the reason Oral's son Richard stated that 'there is no second class for god!' The tower is designed in the shape of a 20th century cross. The best part about the prayer is anyone can request for a particular prayer.
OK County 66 is located in Arcadia. The attraction is themed after the Route 66. This was a creative park which was designed by John Hargrove. He was an airplane and bus mechanic. There are many cranky dispositions in this park where you feel like you are on Route 66. Once you are down to this place you are bound to enjoy the last second of your stay here.
This place is the World champion of the Cow Chip Throw. Beaver is the proud host of this place since 1994. You are greeted by King Cow Chip who is a dried bovine fecal who wears a tilted crown. You are allowed inside without you having to shell out any money.
The Blue Whale is situated right next to the Noah's Ark in Catoosa. This was done by Hugh Davis who made this 80 foot long blue whale to surprise his wife Zelta. They both worked in the Tulsa Zoo. He made this master piece in 1970 which later became the center of attraction to visitors of Nature's Acres. He has placed this blue whale in the pond which was there in their property. You can still go there and have a picnic around the smiling Blue Whale.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'User Submitted News' started by Railgun, Jan 30, 2008.
I wonder if this works without a Modchip ?
Would be really cool but It's probably only for modchips.
Holy Shit. This is awesome.
I regret putting a modchip in my Wii
no this wont work without modchips, cause u have to burn the iso after patching
what does this do exactly allow people with out mod chips to play burned isos on there wii?
For those who are obviously not understanding what this does;
From the translated release notes:
What does it do?
With this application, you can modify your backups, so that when inserting they will boot directly and you can avoid having to access the disk channel.
You can also reverse the process, and go back to the manual boot.
How does it work?
It is very easy! Select the backup you want to edit, then select the mode boot (Automatic or Manual), and click change.
What do I need to run it?
The .NET Framework 2.0 if you have not installed it yet. -- Courtesy of nintendo-scene.com
To make it perfectly clear, NO this will not boot games on a non modded system. All it does is make a game auto boot, bypassing the wii menu aka channel listings.
On a side note, I'm not sure what good this is. Maybe for semi-bricked wii's where the menus get buggy.
Does this bypass any updates that a game may ask for?
There's the original command line version floating around (Eew, .net)
I haven't tested it so I can't say for sure, but I wouldn't assume that it does. Since the update check and subsequent upgrade seem to initialize after the disc is booted rather then at the Wii menu.
Besides writing up the article for Nintendo-Scene.com, I've had a look at the source code. This only modifies a single character in the iso, changing it either to an '0' or a 'R'. This could be implemented easily in any programming language from what I have seen.
So no, it does not remove updates, perhaps it bypasses them simply because it boots directly. And it will not allow you to boot without a modchip, though that would be nice.
Is the source of the original version, by the way.
This does not bypass any updates. It's been tested.
Wish it worked on GC isos.
CorteX's version (command line) can be downed from my website:
Yeah, that would be much better. I don't mind pressing the A-button three times to start a Wii-game (although it is a bit annoying sometimes) it's downright frustrating to search for the Wiimote everytime I want to start a Gamecube-game.
Well, it won't matter for me either way as I haven't even modded my Wii

Ten-second takeaway
Explore stories about the urban landscape and its different aspects through non-fiction films at the third edition of Urban Lens Film Festival.
Urban narratives
Organised by the Indian Institute for Human Settlements (IIHS, an academic institution that works on the urban, and the efficient transformation of settlements), Urban Lens Film Festival is all set to kick off its third edition. Screening 25 non-fiction films which include Indian, international, animation and student films, the three-day event will focus on narratives about the city and its different facets, from political and socio-economic to cultural. Expect movies with storytelling techniques and formal practices like ethnographic accounts and personal essay films, all of them delving into the real or imagined idea of the city.
City portraits
Apart from Indian films like Mira Nair's documentaries, India Cabaret and So Far From India, and Rahul Roy's 2-hour-long docu-film, The Factory (based on the popular automobile manufacturing company, Maruti Suzuki), be sure to check out Crossing the Bridge: The Sound of Istanbul (which portrays the music scene in modern Istanbul), directed by Fatih Akin and Jens Wenkel's Lagos - Notes of a City, which explores Lagos (Nigeria), one of the fastest growing cities in the world.
Talking movies
The festival will also include panel discussions with film practitioners and academics on different contexts, languages and aesthetics that go into creating intimate narratives of the city. Possibilities of the non-fiction medium, urban narratives created by personal histories and cinematographers' experiences while making a film are just some of the topics which will be explored.
Where: IIHS, 16th Cross Rd, Sadashiva Nagar, Armane Nagar
When: Friday, March 4 to Sunday, March 6 (free entry)

Lab Station Activity Overview
Each station not only offers a unique opportunity to test your students' knowledge (offer an opinion, answer questions based on a video or reading, draw, etc.) but also provides a fantastic learning opportunity where your kids are learning through assessment. Each station comes with a description card while some also contain more detailed instructions, a reading, questions to answer, etc. Students are equipped with a recording sheet (passport) to write their answers. There is almost no prep for you. Simply print the cards, lay them out around the room and you're all set. An answer key is also provided where applicable.
Bonus Activities: To ensure your students don't have any downtime between stations, each of your lab station activities also include a 10-word word scramble and word search, both with an answer key. You can use them as part of their mark, as a bonus so it's not mandatory, etc. However you choose to use it, it will ensure that your students are always busy and never idle. Note: For stronger classes, I give the word scramble and for weaker ones, the word search.
How do the Lab Stations work? Each station is specially designed to be a unique complement to the material while at the same time, provide a valuable learning experience. Below is an overview of how each station works. In your activity, each will be tailored to the specific content.
Station 1: Get Hands-On – using their creative skills, students are required to draw or build.
Station 2: Research – using a classroom computer or their own device, students must research a specific question/issue surrounding the topic.
Station 3: Explain yourself – students write down an opinion to a question in paragraph form.
Station 4: Rest Station – students can use this time to catch up on work they didn't have time to complete at a previous station or prepare themselves for an upcoming one.
Station 5 – Applicability reading – students read a short passage from an article, website, etc. which directly connects the classroom content to a real-life application.
Station 6: Test your knowledge – students answer 5 multiple choice questions than provide a written explanation for how/why they came to their conclusions.
Station 7: Learn from the expert – using a classroom computer or their own device, students must watch a short video clip and answer the associated questions. They may stop, rewind and restart as often as they like during the time frame.
Station 8 – Rest Station.
Station 9: Become the question master – Students must create 2 multiple-choice questions, 2 true/false questions and 1 short answer question. Students must also supply the answers.
These station cards are meant to be used as a lab activity but can also be utilized in a review task before a test or a quiz. Used either way, your students will love it! I know mine do and I'm telling you from first-hand experience as I've used this activity in my own class.

I can't think of a better thing to eat at a cook out on a hot sunny afternoon with friends than this sensationally simply pulled pork sandwich. Darrick came up with this great recipe and its been a huge hit with all of our friends.
Makes 8 Sandwiches
4 good size Pork Chops3 tbsp Honey
18 oz Barbecue Sauce
3 tbsp Grape Jelly
18 oz Barbecue Sauce
3 tbsp Grape Jelly
1 tsp of minced garlic
Step 1 - Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Place the pork chops in a covered dish in the oven, with half of the BBQ sauce. Cook the meat until warmed to 180 degrees for safe handling, about 60 minutes.
Step 2 - Make the sauce by combining the remainder of the BBQ sauce, grape jelly, honey and garlic in a medium saucepan. Stir on low heat until warmed through to make sure the flavor is combined.
Step 3 - Shred the meat into a large bowl, add the warm sauce and stir. We served ours on a hamburger bun with a slice of American cheese and some crispy potato chips.

Older QBs vs. Younger QBs… This Saturday… Youth Will Prevail
Wild Card Record: 2-2
After a hard fought Wild Card Weekend, we are fast approaching perhaps the greatest weekend in sports. The eight best teams in the NFL remain and each of the matchups is very enticing, as four teams look to punch their tickets to Championship Weekend.
After an average 2-2 start last weekend, I'm back for more punishment as I make my Divisional Round playoff predictions. I'm hoping to improve on my X-factor predictions as well, considering that save Michael Crabtree, I was way, way, way, way, way off last week. Trent Richardson had one carry (and one fumble) for zero yards. I'm not sure I heard Brandon Boykin's name called all night long against New Orleans, and Giovanni Bernard was relatively quiet all game long and lost a key fumble on the goal line at the end of the first half that cost the Bengals seven points.
Let it be known that in my humblest of opinions, this weekend is the best and most competitive weekend in all of sports. And with the eight teams involved in this weekend's showdowns, this year should be no different. Let's not waste any time… here is how I see this weekend shaking out.
New Orleans (11-5) @ Seattle (12-4)
The Saints shocked the world last week, overcoming a fate that has plagued the franchise since its establishment in 1967. Last week, New Orleans finally won a road game in Philadelphia 26-24, an outcome that not even the superstitious Pat Solitano, Sr. could have ever imagined. Last week proved two things: any time you have Drew Brees at quarterback your team has a chance to win and that the Saints are better than they were getting credit for. Let's not forget that in week 13, the Saints faced a Monday Night Football game sitting at 9-2 (when you're 9-2 through 11 games in the NFL, you're very, very good) with a chance to hop into the driver's seat for home-field advantage in the NFC with a win. The only problem, New Orleans rolled into the most hostile environment in the league, CenturyLink Field – in Seattle.
Let's call a spade a spade… the Saints got their doors blown off, as Seattle rolled 34-7, cementing their perch atop the NFC. New Orleans would go on to split their last four games 2-2, including two losses on the road at St. Louis and Carolina, that ultimately sent them to the six-seed, meaning to earn a trip to the Super Bowl, the "who-dats" would need three straight wins… all on the road. That's a pretty tall order for a franchise that prior the 2013-2014 postseason, had NEVER won a playoff game on the road.
Well, the Saints are a third of the way there. Winning one road playoff game doesn't change the facts, however. They are traveling to Seattle once again, a little over a month after they were embarrassed on Monday Night Football. They are still better at home in the comforts of the dome (8-0 this season), where Drew Brees can work his magic on the Superdome turf. Had New Orleans won the week 13 showdown and this matchup was being played in the bayou, I might forecast a different outcome. But I don't see a way that the Saints offense can withstand the noise of the 12th man with a ferocious Seattle defense playing as physical as ever.
Some quick notes on Seattle: notwithstanding a Week 16 home loss to the Cardinals, Russell Wilson is 15-1 as the starting quarterback at CenturyLink Field. Seattle was the number one ranked defense in both yards and points (2nd straight year) allowed per game. It's been the offense that was the wild card this season. Despite averaging 26.1 PPG (8th best in the NFL), the Hawks dealt with bouts of inconsistency at times during the regular season. New Orleans will have to contain Russell Wilson's legs and make him earn a victory with his arm. One thing to watch for is the return of Percy Harvin, who vows to play after seeing limited action during the regular season. He will no doubt be itching to prove his worth, justifying the first round pick that Seattle paid to bring him over from Minnesota last offseason. Look for Harvin on kick and punt returns, catching passes, and even some read-option designs out of the backfield. The Saints defense better find #11… and fast.
As a Niners fan, I'll be rooting hard for New Orleans. I just don't see it happening. Seattle has the strongest home field advantage in the NFL and too many weapons on both sides of the ball for New Orleans to match.
X-Factor: Percy Harvin
Prediction: Seattle 37 New Orleans 20
Indianapolis (11-5) @ New England (12-4)
Death, taxes, and Brady/Belichick are better and smarter than you. These things are the only certainties in life. I don't care that the Giants and Steelers each won two Super Bowls, the New England Patriots have clearly been the team of the 21st century and have been a model of consistency for almost 15 years. New players filter in and out each season, often star players, but this year was probably Bill Belichick's best coaching job to date. To think of what the Patriots lost before and during the season, a 12-4 record and another AFC East title is mind-blowing. Wes Welker to rival Denver, Danny Woodhead to San Diego, and Aaron Hernandez to the confines of a jail cell would be significant enough losses. Throw in season-ending injuries to Rob Gronkowski, Vince Wilfork, Jerod Mayo, and now Brandon Spikes (hmm, possibly not to injury?) and it was a recipe for a 6-10 down year. But why should I be surprised at the 12-4 triumph? This is the same team that managed an 11-5 record after losing Tom Brady in week 1 in 2008 and was forced to be led by Matt Cassel. Every team is inflicted with injuries, especially at this point in the season. But counting the injuries, free agent departures, and incarcerations, the Patriots played all or most of the 2013 season without what was/would have been arguably seven of its ten best and most important players.
So, after all that they have overcome this season and throughout the entire decade, why do I sit here thinking that there is no way the Colts do not win this game. Am I going "media-style" and falling too much in love with Andrew Luck's game too quickly? Is the hangover from the wild comeback win last week against Kansas City still lingering in my mind? Do I know there is no way the defense allows 44 points again this week? Or did I have a little too much to drink when I wrote this? I think what it comes down to is far simpler than any of that… I just think that this time, these injuries might just be too much to overcome. I cannot get past it. I mean… we're talking the top pass catcher, the top run-stopper and the two best tacklers on the team here.
It pains me to say it… but the Patriots are going down (sorry Pops). I think the Patriots will actually have a great defensive game plan, complete with Aqib Talib minimizing T.Y. Hilton. That being said, look for Coby Fleener to kill New England in the middle of the field and become Andrew Luck's favorite target Saturday night. Ultimately, behind Luck, the Colts pull a shocker in Foxboro and set up a date in the AFC Championship Game next weekend with Colts legend, Peyton Manning (DAMN!!! SPOILER ALERT!!!!!)
X-Factor: Trent Richar… haha just kidding. Coby Fleener
Prediction: Indianapolis 27 New England 23

|Theme I – Session 1: Regional, Security and Long-term Development Impacts
(Presentations are 10-12 minutes & Discussion is 10 minutes)
Chaired by: Don Dippo, Professor, Faculty of Education, York University
|The Geography of Education in Long-Term Refugee Camps
Jennifer Hyndman (York University)
Refugee camps are always and only temporary 'stopgap' measures to protect the lives of people who have fled across a border to seek asylum. However, almost two-thirds of refugees today live in protracted refugee situations (PRS), situations of uncertainty and without full legal status in camps and cities of the global South.
On the one hand, the agencies that administer camps argue that to provide education beyond basic primary or secondary school will further ensconce refugees in place, making it harder to find a solution to their plight. On the other, the average length of time in protracted refugee situations is approximately 17 years, virtually foreclosing on most educational opportunities and ignoring basic human rights. This paper will address this conundrum, and put forth ideas on how to manage this dilemma.
|Questions of Scale, Scope and Sustainability: The University of Alberta's Relationship with Buduburam Refugee Camp
George Richardson (University of Alberta)
This paper will focus on the relationship the University of Alberta has developed with Buduburam Refugee Camp since 2006. The camp, created in 1990 just outside of the Ghanaian capital of Accra was, ultimately, home to more than 35,000 refugees from the Liberian Civil War. Drawing on the different projects in which the U of A has been involved, the presentation explores some of the issues that emerge when post-secondary institutions attempt to work with local NGOs to address the complex needs of large-scale refugee camps.
Looking at the history the University of Alberta has had with Buduburam, three questions will be discussed: On what scale should the relationship be built? What is a reasonable scope of activities? How can the relationship be sustained over time?
|The Case of Refugee Education in Kenya; An Analysis of Kakuma and Dadaab
Laura-Ashley Wright (Oxford University)
This study will describe the current educational situation surrounding refugees living in Dadaab and Kakuma camps in Kenya. Through qualitative analysis, it will attempt to ascertain whether educational provision in these camps is relevant to the needs and desires of the refugee population. Additionally, while there is recent international interest in 'education and conflict', there has been little research on the effectiveness of current educational programming, as well as on the collective challenges faced by UNHCR and current NGOs working in protracted refugee situations.
The study will outline the organisations providing formal and non-formal educational opportunities in Dadaab and Kakuma, using data collected through interviews, primary documentary research and first-hand observation. It looks to answer the following research questions:
1) How relevant is the provision of education to the needs of refugees in Kenya?
2) What are the key challenges and difficulties in the field of education in the camps?
Findings will outline current gaps not yet addressed by major organisations and will make recommendations on improving educational quality and consistency in areas where provision is inadequate to refugees' needs.
|Theme I – Session 2: Regional, Security and Long-term Development Impacts
(Presentations are 10-12 minutes & Discussion is 10 minutes)
Chaired by: Jackie Strecker (IDRC, CRS)
|Teaching in a borderless world: Pedagogies of (dis)location
Kumari Beck (Simon Fraser University)
The roots of Canadian international education lie in development assistance projects initiated in postwar times. Arguing that the design and delivery of international educational programs and services must trace the legacies of the 'Development Project' to avoid reifying neocolonial practices, this paper will make a case for transcending the common pitfalls of development and international education. A framework for teaching across borders must identify and interrogate the influences of globalization and its particular characteristics of deterritorialization and disembeddedness, and create principles for pedagogies that can be effective in those conditions. Drawing on Appadurai (process of indigenization) Edwards and Usher (poststructural notion of (dis)location) Homi Bhabha (third space) and contemporary curricular theorists, a framework for learning and teaching will be articulated.
|Exploring Paradoxes Around Higher Education in Protracted Refugee Situations
Barbara Zeus (INEE)
This paper will explore three main paradoxes underlying Higher Education in Protracted Refugee Situations both theoretically as well as in relation to the particular case of Burmese refugees in Thailand. In discussing these main paradoxes (relief vs. development, nation-state vs. non-state and victimisation vs. empowerment), this paper aims to highlight and address conceptual obstacles that exist alongside practical challenges on the way towards a global system of Higher Education for Longterm Refugees.
Following a rights-based approach and adopting post-structural theories, this conceptual paper will demonstrate how dominant educational discourse emphasises externalities and thereby neglects the individual's right to Higher Education from permeating into practice while powerful narratives of refugees as dependent victims have shaped reality in justifying mechanisms for international protection and incapacitating refugees.
The paper suggests that Higher Education could be both a means and an end to refugee empowerment.
|Returnees' Capacity and Peace building: Utility of Exile-Acquired Human Capital
Amanda Coffie (Carleton University)
An urgently needed resource for peace building is human capital, unfortunately this is lacking in many countries engaged in peace building. In this study I suggest that such states could rely on educational qualifications acquired in exile by return migrants. This study is a preliminary discussion of a comparative study of human capital of Liberian returnees from Ghana and Guinea, and their potential role in the peace building process of Liberia. Preliminary findings indicate that about 60% of sampled Liberian returnees from Ghana received post secondary education out of which 10% attained University degrees. Only two sampled Liberian returnees from Guinea received some form of post secondary education. Variations in official languages and security situations of the two host countries (Ghana and Guinea) account for the differences among the groups however, these two cases are typical of most refugee situations across Africa.
From Hope to Action: The Contribution of Unity for Tertiary Refugee Students (UTRS) to Advancing the Right of Refugees to Education
Alice Wamundiya (UTRS)
Refugees began seeking protection in South Africa soon after 1994, when the bans previously imposed by the Apartheid regime on all migrants from the African continent were finally lifted. Shortly afterwards the new South Africa ratified the 1951 Convention and its 1969 Protocol as well as other regional and international refugee and human rights instruments.
South Africa went a step further and developed a national policy on refugees in 1998, its Refugees Act n.130, which drew heavily from South Africa's progressive constitution and international refugee specific instruments. It accorded certain rights to refugees and asylum seekers under the protection of the South African government. Among these rights was the right to education. The Act stipulated that refugees should benefit from the same treatment as citizens at basic education level, meaning that primary education is free of charge. Access to secondary and tertiary education was also opened up to refugees and asylum seekers but the treatment applicable to them is different from that applied to citizens.
Furthermore the implementation of law was undermined by everyday practices at the level of public institutions and refugees well after the year 2000 were being marginalized, excluded and denied access to tertiary education. As a result, a group of young refugees from secondary and tertiary institutions who had personally experienced a struggle for education came together to find ways to address the issue, not just for themselves but also for the future generations of refugees in South Africa. Their underlying motivation was a combination of survival, determination to acquire an education and being enabled through education to have an opportunity to contribute to their host country.
Unity for Tertiary Refugee Students (UTRS) was born in 2004 as a students' based association for refugees and asylum seekers and remains so far across the world the only initiative established and managed by refugees at tertiary institutions and refugee young professionals themselves who seek to address their own challenges. In its 6 years of existence, UTRS has undergone many changes, sought to transform itself so as to adapt to the changing needs of its beneficiaries and has developed to the extent of being recognized in South Africa as an NGO in February 2010. Some of its core achievements as well as its challenges and hopes for the future will be shared in this paper.
|Theme II – Session 1: The Political and Technical Dimensions of Pedagogy with Mobile Populations: Partnerships
(Presentations are 10-12 minutes & Discussion is 10 minutes)
Chaired by: Wenona Giles (York University, CRS)
|The Politics of Tertiary Education for Refugees in a Global Movement for Basic Education
Sarah Dryden-Peterson (OISE, University of Toronto)
In the context of Education for All (EFA) and the Millennium Development Goals (MDG), global movements for expanded access to education have focused on basic education (primary and lower secondary). In refugee situations, where at least one-third of camp-based refugees do not have access to primary school, donors and agencies resist supporting tertiary education with arguments that, at great cost, it stands to benefit a small and elite group. At the same time, refugee learners are clear that progression to higher levels of education is integrally connected with their future livelihoods and future stability for their regions of origin. This paper will examine where tertiary education fits within a broader framework of refugee education and the politics of its provision, with attention to the priorities and mandates of UN agencies, NGOs, national governments, and refugees themselves.
|Providing Refugees with Tertiary Education: the Example of Burmese Refugees on the Thai-Burma Border
Duncan MacLaren (Australian Catholic University)
The Australian Catholic University (ACU) has been providing tertiary education to Burmese refugees from camps on the Thai-Burma border since 2004. After an introduction to the situation of Burmese refugees in Thailand, this paper will detail the history of the educational methodologies used, gauge their effectiveness and delineate the learning outcomes. The paper will also use original research looking at how former graduates have used their new skills and knowledge, not just for their own benefit but for the common good, especially that of the refugee communities or the communities in diaspora. The paper will conclude with an analysis of the lessons learned from the program to propose models providing quality tertiary education for refugees in other protracted situations throughout the world.
|Tertiary Education for Refugees: Beyond Sponsorship
Philip Landon (WUSC):
For over thirty years WUSC's Student Refugee Program has been working with students on campuses across Canada to sponsor more than 1000 refugees to complete a university degree and resettle in Canada. This constituency of both sponsoring and sponsored students is now looking to do more for the hundreds of thousands in the camps who do not get sponsored. The presentation will focus on recent efforts to improve the quality of secondary education in the camps in preparing students for eventual tertiary education, to provide teacher training and certification for refugee teachers, and to explore means of distance education to address the pressing need for more tertiary opportunities.
|Theme II – Session 2: The Political and Technical Dimensions of Pedagogy with Mobile Populations: Programs
(Presentations are 10-12 minutes & Discussion is 10 minutes)
Chaired by: Aida Orgocka, PhD, Centre for Refugee Studies, York University
|Assessing the Gaps: Information Communication Technologies and Education
Jacqueline Strecker (IDRC)
In recent years, the proliferation of e-learning approaches have fostered new platforms for the dissemination of ideas and the production of knowledge. Although these systems afforded new opportunities for education, refugees have been isolated from procuring an active role within these systems. The inability for refugees to occupy a participatory role within recently developed online networks, reinstates modernization frames, which present both 'refugees' as dependent on western generosity and knowledge. This paper assesses the technological and social gaps which restrict refugee participation.
|The Experiences of Plan Canada and York University in the Development of Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) in Post Conflict Situations: a Case Study from Southern Sudan.
Ndungu Kahihu (Plan Canada) & Susan McGrath (CRS)
In 2005, Plan Canada made a decision to start working in conflict and post conflict countries, both in a humanitarian response capacity as well as through a 'disaster to recovery to development framework.' In 2006 Plan Canada, with support from other partners established a technical and vocational education program in Southern Sudan. The primary aim was to provide skills for the many youth returnees, following the signing of the CPA, as well as those being demobilized from the SPLA. This paper will examine the experience of Plan Canada and its partners in carrying out this program and the results achieved so far. It will discuss such questions as: what have been the key lessons learned as regards the best way to establish effective entry into a post conflict country? What mistakes did Plan Canada make? What would we do differently today?
|Refugees: A Great Human Resource
Njogu Marangu (Windle Trust, Kenya)
Education is not only a fundamental human right, but also a powerful tool to positively transform people and bring them together. Refugees deserve education beyond the basic education. University and middle level college education is vital in refugee lives as it holds the key to their future. It helps build human resources — the medical doctors, engineers, technocrats and other related professionals who one day will use their skills and knowledge to contribute to the reconstruction and rehabilitation of their motherland and bring peace and democracy to the world. Refugees see education as the most important "take-away item." Refugee parents have little else to bequeath their children when they die, and many are buried in the camps, in a foreign land.
|Remedial Education Programs for Girls in Kakuma and Dadaab
Robyn Plasterer (University of British Columbia)
Over the past decade, the average time spent as a refugee has increased from nine to seventeen years, with environmental and political instability exacerbating protracted refugee situations. Structural, cultural and economic factors have inhibited girls' access to education, implicating their chances for resettlement or local integration and exacerbating exploitation. This workshop will focus on the gendered nature of forced migration and its implications, as well as the dearth of educational opportunities in protracted refugee situations. Using Kakuma and Dadaab as a reference point for discussion, the workshop will investigate remedial education programs for girls, as well as access to IT, secondary schooling, and scholarships in Kenyan refugee camps.
|Theme II – Session 3: The Political and Technical Dimensions of Pedagogy with Mobile Populations: Programs
(Presentations are 10-12 minutes & Discussion is 10 minutes)
Chaired by: Joseph Mensah, PhD, Associate Professor of Geography & Coordinator of International Development Studies, York University.
|Re-spacing Educational Rights for Long-term Refugees through Tertiary Education
Ranu Basu (York University)
This paper explores the complex relations between tertiary education, space, and statelessness; and its political, social, economic implications on long term refugees in protracted situations. Recognizing the rights to education extending beyond the confines of primary education and to a more materially based tertiary education, suggests that the spatialities of these extended opportunities need to be stretched and critically reconsidered. This paper evaluates the spatialities of three particular cases as they relate to educational rights:
1) institutional support for urban refugees; 2) cross border networks and alliances; 3) local creativity and agency within camp spaces. Durable solutions for maintaining and building tertiary educational rights for knowledge are explored.
|Unwelcome Guests: The Struggle of Refugees and Asylum Seekers in South Africa To Access Tertiary Education and Remain in the System
Elizabeth Mary Lanzi Mazzocchini (UTRS)
South Africa is one of the main recipients of asylum claims worldwide. In 2009 it hosted over 43,000 refugees and approximately 230,000 asylum seekers. Among these some strive to rebuild their lives by accessing education opportunities with a view to maximizing their chances of integration in the host country's society and job market.
The paper will present the main research findings of a study undertaken in 2008 which documented and analyzed the integration of 60 refugees and asylum seekers pursuing tertiary studies in the Western Cape province of South Africa.
A core objective of the study was to identify the factors currently impeding or limiting access to tertiary education for refugees and asylum seekers, as well as the recurring challenges they are faced with during their time at university. One of the main findings was the gap between the legal framework (the theory) which accords refugees the right to study at tertiary education and the reality on the ground they experience daily (the practice).
The study found that almost 1 in 2 refugee students had a university degree before arriving in South Africa and 37% are studying towards degrees which are not their preferred choice. They adopt local coping strategies to cover tuition fees and support their families; hence 70% have low skilled or unskilled occupations, many work night shifts as security guards, waiters or car guards. Study abandonment happens frequently as there comes a point where some cannot cope.
The absence of a national policy, minimum standards or guidelines to tertiary institutions overseeing treatment applicable to refugees and asylum seekers, has created a situation whereby different – and often unwritten – policies are developed and applied across tertiary institutions in the country. Furthermore key university offices continue to deal with the problems of refugee and asylum seeker students on an ad hoc basis. In this context the students and prospective students are continuously caught up in administrative stalemates and are faced with university staff who are rarely aware of the meaning of "refugee", have no knowledge whatsoever about refugee rights and often relate to them based on stereotypes and prejudice, as is often the case also within the local student community where social inclusion actions remain scarce.
The paper will further describe the extent of the involvement of local NGOs, UNHCR and student grassroots initiatives, including Unity for Tertiary Refugee Students (UTRS).
|Experiences and Opportunities in the Provision of Tertiary Education for Refugees on the Thailand-Burma Border
Simon Purnell (ZOA)
This paper will focus on four key topics and will draw on the experiences of providers of tertiary education for refugees in the context of the Thailand-Burma border and the challenges that have been faced in developing concrete opportunities for refugees from this setting.
The first section will focus on the development of post-secondary education and access to tertiary education, providing an overview of the successes and failures to date. It will look at the different forms of education provided and the role that these forms of education were seen to playing for the future of the refugee caseload from Burma. The second section of the paper will highlight the gaps that existed in education provision and the coping mechanisms that were taken to cover these gaps, both inside the camps and through the provision of unofficial courses outside the camps.
The third section of the paper will look at why these forms of education were seen to be of high importance to provide and the impact of the lack of opportunities was having on the education and formation of a new generation that had grown up largely in the camp environment.
The fourth part of this paper will look at lessons learnt by course providers and NGOs in this setting and the ways that alternatives have been developed and are being developed to react to the new sets of challenges that have been faced. It will also reflect on what possibilities exist for ensuring that there is the opportunity for refugees from Burma in the camps (and possibly in other protracted settings) to be able to study at the tertiary level.

When you or your child has diabetes, it's important to receive good medical care-but that first doctor's visit can be a little overwhelming! What should you expect? No matter your age or the type of diabetes you have been diagnosed with, your physician will have a clear goal for the first visit: To bring your blood glucose down to a normal level. Plan to work closely with your doctor to bring your sugar down to between 90 and 130 milligrams per deciliter before meals. A. To prepare for your appointment, you'll want to bring some basic items, B. including all the medications you take regularly. C. If you have already begun testing glucose levels, D. take your test notes and your glucose monitor. It will help to have a notepad and pen for jotting down questions during your visit. Don't hesitate to ask you are doctor if you're confused or concerned about any aspect of your diabetes! A. Whether you have Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes, your doctor will begin by taking a detailed medical history. B. Be ready to answer questions about past illnesses, family health, and your eating and exercise habits. C. If your child has diabetes, D. you might want to consider going over this at an earlier visit without him there. Next, your doctor will perform a routine physical examination. Feel reassured that this will be much like a standard check-up. Following the examination, you will need to give your blood and urine samples. These will assess your levels of cholesterol, fat, blood glucose and urine protein. A painless electrocardiogram, or EKG, may be administered to check the heart. At the end of your visit, your doctor will create a diabetes care plan to effectively manage the disease. This individualized plan should take into account your daily schedule, eating and exercise habits, and cultural background.. A. Your plan should detail the medications you will need to lower your blood glucose and the B. tools you will use to measure your sugar levels, like a glucose meter. The plan will also lay out lifestyle changes you may need to make, 1. like adopting healthier eating habits, 2. taking up exercise, or cutting out cigarettes Your doctor may want to refer you to other individuals who will aid you with specialized aspects of treating diabetes. These people will become part of your treatment team. Your team might include: A dietician to help you devise an effective eating plan, a registered nurse to teach you about daily living with diabetes, and, perhaps, a psychologist to help you cope with the emotional aspects of living with a lifelong disease. Expect to schedule subsequent visits every three to six months, although you may need more frequent appointments in the beginning. By working closely with your doctor, you will be able to control your sugar and return to health!More »

Urgent actions against the execution of Leon Taylor on November 19 2014 in Missouri USA!
The execution is already on 19 November 2014 0:01 CDT Missouri! Please read this section of Amnesty International and supports the actions against the death penalty !:
Leon Taylor's childhood was marked by parental alcoholism, violence, and abuse. According to his lawyers, he has undergone positive personal development in prison and has become a force for constructive relations among inmates and others. In 2001, Leon Taylor contacted Robert Newton's (Note: he died in the attack) wife and daughter and expressed his remorse and condolences for their loss. Robert Newton's widow has since made statements indicating that that she has forgiven him.
and the next this would speak against death sentence:
In 2002, the US Supreme Court ruled in Ring v. Arizona that the constitutional right to a jury trial required that any finding necessary to enhance punishment be made by a jury. In 2003, the Missouri Supreme Court ruled that Ring should be applied retroactively, and subsequently commuted to life imprisonment the death sentences of all Missouri inmates sent to death row before Ring as the result of a sentence imposed by a judge after the jury was unable to agree on punishment. In other words, if the prosecutor had not committed misconduct at the 1995 sentencing, Leon Taylor's original death sentence would have been commuted to life. Instead, due to the prosecutor's misconduct, he was resentenced by an all-white jury and this death sentence has stood.
Please support the actions against this execution:

Question about Samsung HLP5085W 50" Rear Projection HDTV-Ready Television
TV Tech,
I have a Samsung HLP5685W, all of the sudden the picture and sound went out. When I unplug the TV and plug it back in I only get a Green light on the front...
I measure 330 volts DC going into the Ballast but 0 volts coming out right before the lamp. Do you think the ballast needs to be replaced?
I am just wondering why the sound isn't working and why I am not getting any kind of flashing lights on the front of the TV
Posted by SODAK on
I have pulled out the ballast and it is **t shorted...infact i guess it is open or at least has very very high resistance.
I would like to assume the ballast is bad and hope that fixes my problems...but am still concerned about the fact that there is ** sound and I have ** blinking lights on the front, but will get the board ordered and let you k**w if it works
Well I got bad news, I got the new ballast today, and have the exact same symptoms.
The old ballast was not shorted and neither is the new one.
When I first plug in the TV I only get a Green light on the front it does not do its normal power on sequence ending with the smiley face on the front. There is no sound and I have no blinking lights on the front, just a solid Green light.
Has anyone seen this kind of problem before?
I have a Samsung HLP5685W that won't come on... I get no Audio or Video. In fact it won't boot up properly, normally this DLP goes through some self checks then has a smiley face on the front display after that.
Now when I plug it in, I get a Solid green light on the front and nothing else. All of the voltage lights on the circuit board are green, so I have 12 volts 5 volts and 7 volts. I have 330 vdc going into my ballast but no output to the bulb. I change the ballast and no change...same symptoms.
The fact that the TV does not boot up properly and that I have no flashing red lights makes me think that I have a logic / processor problem and not something easy like a ballast or bulb.
I am hoping that someone can help me.
Thanks for your help
1. Standby LED on Digital Board ON (5V)
2. Power on signal from keypad/remote to Digital PCB.
3. Power ON signal generated by Digital PCB> Analog PCB> PSU
4. All other voltages turn on.
5. Digital PCB tells fans to turn on.
6. Digital PCB tells DMD PCB to turn color wheel on.
7. DMD / digital PCB'S check feedback signals from
fans/ color wheel.
8. If OK, Digital PCB Tells ballast to turn lamp on. LAMP ON.
9. Digital PCB then checks "lamplitz signal" from ballast
for status OK.
It can therefore only be the digital PCB orthe DMD PCB This is the sequence of events that must happen for your set to power up. If I can help you further please let me know.

Believe it or not, a bad lamp can cause this too. Have you replaced the lamp? These sets have all kinds of safety circuits built in to prevent major damage. Unfortunately, these circuits sometimes make diagnosis tricky at best. Try a new lamp and keep us posted.
Posted on Mar 20, 2008
Yeppers..the ballast has taken early retirement...can you unplug the ballast output, and see if it's running into a short condition?
