My Link Blog
One of my good friends and I are always pasting links back and forth to each other, "Have you seen this?" or "Have you read about this"? A quick search of my chat logs from last few months shows that I shared anywhere from 25 links to 65 links a month with him. It's probably safe to say that most of them come from things I've read via Google Reader.
I'm currently subscribed to 220 feeds. Not quite the 622 feeds Robert Scoble reads, but blogging isn't my day job. :)
I got the idea from Robert Scoble. He uses Google Reader's Feed Sharing feature for his link blog. Since I also am using Google Reader, I thought I would also share mine. Perhaps the things I find interesting will be of interest to others, especially those who don't take the time to read as much as I do.
Again, here's the links:

I have given up (temporarily) learning perl. Because: I don't think it is correctly integrated with GUI. I mean when you write a "print Hello World" in Perl it is not really foreseen in the langage to specify the font, the color or the position of the text on the screen. I know there are many ways to do gui with perl (TK, GTK,...) but none of them does look correctly integrated with the language to me.
I think we have a REAL problem here, in the 1980s under DOS it was easy to make a colorful program by playing with the text attributes or going to graphical mode. But today it does not seem to be so simple anymore (I see here a real regression: isn't programming expected to be easier with all the tools we have today?) when you talk to people and say let's write a tetris game (under Linux or windows) everybody (well nearly everybody) seems to think they cannot do it. In the past on TI99/4A, ZXSpectrum, BBCmodelB,Amstrad CPC6128, PC AT under DOS,... this was easy but since the 1990s with windows and Linux this does not seem possible anymore!!!
We have a real problem here: the languages have not integrated the GUI!!
The keyboard, the filesystem, the text display are well supported by all the languages: In C: getc, fprintf, puts,... give me all the functionality I need (ok they are not part of the language but part of the universaly supported standard library so they are available in all C implementation).
WHY aren't the mouse, the windows, the menus supported the same way? Why isn't there a standard way to open a window in Perl, in Python, in C++,... (OK JAVA was invented with AWT and afterwards swing but that's more an exception than a rule and I don't think this is the best GUI implementation I have ever seen)
What we need is a GUI framework that is
1/ universal (both Linux, windows, and even the other OS...)
2/ that is standardized
3/ that is well documented
4/ that is (nearly) part of the language (in the same way as printf is nearly part of C)
WE SHOULD REALLY FIGHT TO HAVE THAT otherwise our applications will still more look like mainframe batches from the 1970s than 21th century programs
The best GUI framework I have found yet is WxWidget (new name for WxWindows). Well, I don't like its documentation and it is not at all integrated with C++ or standardized but it seems to be easy (even fun) to use, quite stable and available on both Linux and windows. This is probably the best GUI framework I have found yet.
If I succed to write a pac-man with it then I will say it is great!

Pakistan: Changing attitudes and improving maternal health care
9 March, 2012
Hasina* lives in a village near Sibi in Pakistan's Balochistan Province. She was ill during her pregnancy, but her family and friends discouraged her from seeking medical attention. Some of them found it embarrassing to see a doctor during pregnancy for privacy reasons, while others were concerned about taking medicine during pregnancy.
Towards the end of her pregnancy, Hasina told Kulsoom Akhtar, a health outreach worker from the ARC International, that she was ill. Kulsoom was in the village conducting an awareness session on health, hygiene and care for newborns.
ARC, an international NGO, had recently received a grant for US$459,300 from OCHA's Emergency Response Fund (ERF). The funds were used to implement a project to make medical services more accessible in rural Pakistan. ARC was able to provide additional health-care staff, medical equipment and medicine, and rehabilitate medical facilities.
A community midwife from ARC was immediately sent to the village to examine Hasina. She found that Hasina was anaemic, underweight, and suffering from fever and a skin infection. She also needed an ultrasound to check on her baby's health.
ARC health workers persuaded Hasina's family to allow her to undergo an ultrasound and receive urgent medical attention. They also explained the advantages and importance of antenatal and post-natal care.
The ultrasound revealed that Hasina was pregnant with twins, but they were weak. "If we had not been there on time for Hasina, she would probably have lost her babies," says Kulsoom.
Hasina needed vitamin supplements and a nutritious diet to improve her health. The health-care workers also advised her family to take her into a proper health facility in Sibi during labour. For many families in Hasina's community, is it more appropriate to deliver a baby at home than at a hospital.
Today, Hasina is the proud mother of a healthy boy and a girl. "I cannot express my feelings enough, but I know that when I see my children I feel blessed. I know they are alive only because ARC was there on time," she says.

In October 1881, not long after he finished his joyous Luncheon of the Boating Party, probably his best-known work and certainly one of the most admired paintings of the past 150 years, Pierre-Auguste Renoir left Paris for Italy to fulfill a long-standing ambition. He was 40 and already acclaimed as a pioneer of Impressionism, the movement that had challenged French academic painting with its daring attempts to capture light in outdoor scenes. Represented by a leading gallery and collected by connoisseurs, he filled the enviable role of well-respected, if not yet well-paid, iconoclast.
From This Story

His ambition that fall was to reach Venice, Rome, Florence and Naples and view the paintings of Raphael, Titian and other Renaissance masters. He was not disappointed. Indeed, their virtuosity awed him, and the celebrated artist returned to Paris in a state approaching shock. "I had gone as far as I could with Impressionism," Renoir later recalled, "and I realized I could neither paint nor draw."
The eye-opening trip was the beginning of the end of the Renoir most of us know and love. He kept painting, but in an entirely different vein—more in a studio than in the open air, less attracted to the play of light than to such enduring subjects as mythology and the female form—and within a decade Renoir entered what is called his late period. Critical opinion has been decidedly unkind.
As long ago as 1913, the American Impressionist Mary Cassatt wrote a friend that Renoir was painting abominable pictures "of enormously fat red women with very small heads." As recently as 2007, New York Times art critic Roberta Smith bemoaned "the acres of late nudes" with their "ponderous staginess," adding "the aspersion 'kitsch' has been cast their way." Both the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art in New York City have unloaded late-period Renoirs to accommodate presumably more significant works. In 1989, MOMA sold Renoir's 1902 Reclining Nude because "it simply didn't belong to the story of modern art that we are telling," the curator of paintings, Kirk Varnedoe, said at the time.
"For the most part, the late work of Renoir has been written out of art history," says Claudia Einecke, a curator at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. "Renoir was seen as an interesting and important artist when he was with the Impressionists. Then he sort of lost it, becoming a reactionary and a bad painter—that was the conventional wisdom."
If the mature Renoir came to be seen as passé, mired in nostalgia and eclipsed by Cubism and Abstract art, a new exhibition aims to give him his due. After opening this past fall at the Grand Palais in Paris, "Renoir in the 20th Century" will go to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art February 14 and the Philadelphia Museum of Art June 17. The exhibition, the first to focus on his later years, brings together about 70 of his paintings, drawings and sculptures from collections in Europe, the United States and Japan. In addition, works by Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Aristide Maillol and Pierre Bonnard demonstrate Renoir's often overlooked influence on their art.
On display are odalisques and bathing nudes (including Reclining Nude, now in a private collection), Mediterranean landscapes and towns, society figures and young women combing their hair, embroidering or playing the guitar. Quite a few are modeled on famous pieces by Rubens, Titian and Velázquez or pay homage to Ingres, Delacroix, Boucher and classical Greek sculpture. "Renoir believed strongly in going to museums to learn from other artists," says Sylvie Patry, curator of the Paris exhibit. She paraphrases Renoir: "One develops the desire to become an artist in front of paintings, not outdoors in front of beautiful landscapes."
Curiously, though expert opinion would turn against his later works, some collectors, notably the Philadelphia inventor Albert Barnes, bought numerous canvases, and major artists championed Renoir's efforts. "In his old age, Renoir was considered by the young, avant-garde artists as the greatest and most important modern artist, alongside Cézanne," says Einecke.
Take his 1895-1900 painting Eurydice. Based on a classical pose, the seated nude is endowed with disproportionately large hips and thighs against a diffusely painted Mediterranean landscape of pastel green and violet hues. "It was just this free interpretation of a traditional subject, this sense of liberty, that captivated Picasso," Patry says. Eurydice was one of seven Renoir paintings and drawings Picasso collected, and, the curator adds, it was a likely inspiration for his 1921 canvas Seated Bather Drying Her Feet. (Despite attempts by Picasso's dealer Paul Rosenberg to introduce them, the two artists never met.) Einecke remembers her art history professors dismissing Eurydice and similarly monumental Renoir nudes as "pneumatic, Michelin-tire girls." She hopes today's viewers will identify them with the classical mode that regarded such figures as symbols of fecundity—and see them as precursors of modern nudes done by Picasso and others.
Renoir's late embrace of tradition also owed a great deal to settling down after he married one of his models, Aline Charigot, in 1890. Their first son, Pierre, had been born in 1885; Jean followed in 1894 and Claude in 1901. "More important than theories was, in my opinion, his change from being a bachelor to being a married man," Jean, the film director, wrote in his affectionate 1962 memoir Renoir, My Father.

Indonesia: Preparing to Save Lives
Indonesia is sometimes referred to as nature's laboratory for natural disasters. Frequent earthquakes, tsunamis, forest fires, floods, whirlwinds and drought ensure that the country is regularly in the top five of the global list of countries most affected by disasters.
When a devastating 7.6-magnitude earthquake struck the Province of West Sumatra in September 2009, international search-and-rescue crews scrambled to the provincial capital, Padang, to help. More than 135,000 houses were severely damaged, with hundreds of people trapped inside. Within the first 24 hours after the earthquake, emergency services and national search-and-rescue teams rescued most of the 300 survivors, but the number of people who died was four times that figure. The authorities wondered: could more lives have been saved?
"The response in the first 48 to 72 hours after a disaster is critical," says Rajan Gengaje, acting Head of OCHA Indonesia and a veteran in disaster response. "If it is swift, well facilitated and expertly orchestrated, more lives will be saved."
Building national capacities to respond quickly to disasters and save the maximum number of lives is an important focus of OCHA's work. Nearly three years after the earthquake struck West Sumatra, some 240 international and national search-and-rescue specialists from 26 countries converged on Padang again, this time to run a simulation exercise of a major earthquake disaster in which local and international emergency teams worked together.
Simulation exercises like this are a regular part of the work of the International Search and Rescue Advisory Group (INSARAG), a body founded in 1991 and dedicated to urban search and rescue and operational field coordination. The aim is to familiarize international search-and-rescue teams and host countries with the INSARAG guidelines and methodology, and to practice coordination and cooperation between the teams.
"These simulations allow us to test the relevance and efficacy of our guidelines, which are really agreed procedures for saving lives," says Winston Chang of INSARAG. "Just as important, the exercises are useful in assessing whether national agencies and partners are prepared to respond to a disaster."
For Indonesia's national search-and-rescue agency, BASARNAS, the exercise exposed the sheer complexity of coordinating a response to a major disaster.
"The huge number of actors and the logistics involved, the need for timely and accurate information… dealing with any one of these, let alone all simultaneously, can be overwhelming for a young agency like ours," observes Pak Abdul Haris Achadi, the Head of Technical Cooperation at BASARNAS. "What we got out of the INSARAG exercise was the realization that there's still a lot to be done on our side."
BASARNAS was established as an autonomous agency just three years ago, and it is still finding its feet in a context of extreme vulnerability. Last year, for example, there were over 270 tremors measuring 5.0 and above on the Richter scale across the country. Halfway through 2012, there have already been more than 180 earthquakes on a similar scale.
Pak Achadi adds: "We are powerless to prevent natural disasters, but we can certainly do something about the way we respond to them. The better prepared we are, the more lives we are likely to save when a disaster strikes."
Ultimately, that was the key message of the INSARAG simulation exercise: Preparedness saves lives.

It is amazing how themes run together and I think I have said it before on the blog about how a subject seems to maintain a solid thread in life for a time. This week it seems that the subject of what we expect of our youth in so far as work ethic, values, and skills has taken up much of the conversation I have had electronically and with some friends.
Yesterday I received an email from a reader that challenged the idea that Scouts are not allowed to use liquid fuel, like white gas etc. He made mention of my recent videos and said that I was irresponsible for encouraging our Scouts to use equipment that is "proven to be dangerous".
So let me get that out-of-the-way first. "Proven to be dangerous"… By who?
Reader, do you honestly think that REI and other fine outfitters would have the MSR Whisperlite, the Dragon Fly, the Soto Muka, and the Trangia stoves on their shelves if they were "Proven to be dangerous"? Do you think for a minute that the Tooth of Time traders at Philmont SCOUT Ranch would sell the Whisperlite and Simmer light stoves as well as make available at the commissary Coleman White Gas. And finally Reader… Do you own a Guide to Safe Scouting and have looked up the policy found in the Chemical Fuels and Equipment Document published by the Boy Scouts of America?
It seems that our Reader, based on his email, does not feel that Scouts are "Responsible" enough to handle liquid fuels. He also feels that I act irresponsibly by taking the Scouts camping in the winter. "I find it hard to believe you would risk injury of your Scouts in camping in temperatures below freezing." he wrote.
Now, I really don't want to offend any good Den Leaders out there, but this guy obviously has not moved on the Boy Scouts yet even though he signed his email "Scoutmaster".
I am not going to address all of the "issues" he has with me and as he called it "My brand of Scouting", but I do want to discuss this as a matter of course in the conversation of week regarding our youth.
I know exactly where this "Reader" is coming from. He is of the class that believes that our young men (boys) are not capable of doing anything other than sitting in front of a TV watching Barney.
He is so afraid to let boys be boys that he is killing our young mens ability to function as men. I am sure that knives are not allowed in his Troop and that the Mom's do all the cooking. He is of the mind-set that does not allow Scouts to build a signal tower and climb it. Him and his fellow non believers in youngsters are the ones that keep a good and sturdy rope bring 18 inches off the ground and find the need to "spot" someone who is literally inches from doom.
He is the reason that Scouts are not supposed to camp with their patrols.. ohhhh… hear that sound.. that's Green Bar Bill rolling in his grave. This reader is why we have Eagle Scouts that can't tie Clove hitches and max the minimum when it comes to everything in Scouting.
They don't believe that a Scout is able to do anything that he and his buddies set their minds to. He has no sense of adventure and won't let a young man push himself. He is the reason that we expect less from our youth and as a result get less.
As you may be able to tell… this really chaps my butt.
Our young men can do anything. They can use an ax, they can climb mountains, they can swim in open water, they can hike miles and miles and still have energy to sing and joke. They can ride horses and slide down a zip line. They can build fires and sleep under the stars. They can ride their bike for a 100 miles and camp along the way. They can scuba dive in the Florida Keys and canoe the Boundry waters.
But this guy won't let them. Why? Because he does not believe in the power of a boy!
He Expects less and he gets less because he does not believe in them.
Expect more… get more!
Train 'em, Trust 'em, and Let 'em lead!
Have a Great Scouting Day!

text: I tried using a salmon oil in a squirt bottle and noticed his coat getting shiny and feeling a little oily. After that bottle was done, I tried using Jamieson Omega 3-6-9 gel capsules and noticed a similar (but less oily) affect on his coat. So far he seems to be doing well on it and it is cheaper than the salmon oil I tried at first. He won't eat the capsule if I put it in his food, so I just pierce it and squirt the liquid on his food with a little water before feeding.

The worldwide allure of studying architectural design and theory in foreign countries has cajoled many aspiring architects to toil in classrooms while yearning to travel and study abroad. Now University of Hawai'i at Mānoa students need only go as far as the front steps of the School of Architecture Building. Drafted plans to offer a dual graduate degree in Architecture—in partnership with Tongji University's College of Architecture and Urban Planning in Shanghai, China—will become reality in Fall 2012.
Not only may Mānoa students with a pre-professional degree in Architecture elect to participate in the three-year global track/China focus, but those successfully completing it can obtain a National Board of Architectural Education (NBAE of China) Master of Architecture degree from Tongji University, and NAAB (National Architectural Accrediting Board) Doctor of Architecture degree at Mānoa as well.
No other institutional partnership in the world offers accredited professional architectural degrees in the world's two largest construction economies—the U.S. and China. Said an excited Spencer Leineweber, FAIA, chair of the Architecture graduate program at Mānoa, "This innovative, timely, and empowering dual-degree track, for American students and their Chinese classmates, builds upon this School's proud 35-year history. Also, this dual-track derives directly from the 2010 Vision Statement and Strategic Plan that identifies aspirations to pre-eminence in the Asia and Pacific Region, with a corresponding curricular focus."
The international partnership builds yet another bridge between the Far East and the most western part of the U.S., where Hawai'i's pre-statehood history includes Chinese immigrant plantation workers. UH Mānoa is the only American school of architecture in the Pacific region, and the sole in the nation where a majority of the student body consists of Asian and Pacific Islander minority groups. Likewise, almost 5,000 miles away, Tongji University is one of the leading universities directly under the State Ministry of Education in China. Among its peer colleges, Tongji's College of Architecture and Urban Planning boasts a comprehensive range of programs, including an architecture and urban planning post-doctoral mobile station that is the first of its kind in China.
Together, both schools are on the fast track to graduating architects who are appreciative of pioneering design and function from a global point-of-view. The dual graduate Architecture degrees will become the newest connection linking Hawai'i and China—both historically and now into the future.

Princeton senior Ragnhild Lunnan is pursuing an interest in astronomy forged during her childhood in Norway. She is seeking answers to questions about mysterious dark energy for her thesis project in astrophysical sciences. Above her in this photo is the University's 110-year-old, nine-inch refracting telescope, restored during recent renovations of Peyton Hall.

Quintessentially Princeton
Inspired by their experiences in and out of the classroom, on campus and abroad, Princeton seniors immerse themselves in thesis projects that are often remembered as the defining experience of their academic careers.
The University requires all students to complete a thesis, challenging them to develop as independent thinkers by pursuing original research in close collaboration with a faculty adviser. The April 13 and 20 issues of the Princeton Weekly Bulletin profile students who have met that intellectual challenge by producing rigorous, inventive works of scholarship in subjects such as religion, astrophysical sciences, mechanical and aerospace engineering, theater and dance, and politics.

Peering into the cosmic web for answers to the riddle of dark energy
Posted April 27, 2009; 11:53 a.m.
From the April 13, 2009, Princeton Weekly Bulletin
From the mountains of Scandinavia, it is easy to fall in love with the night sky.
Since she was a child, senior Ragnhild Lunnan has been interested in astronomy -- scouring the crystalline heavens over her hometown in Norway to study stars that shine like diamonds in the clear alpine nights.
Now, through her senior thesis, Lunnan is delving into one of the biggest mysteries of the universe. Working with Richard Gott, a professor of astrophysical sciences, as her adviser, Lunnan is out to help answer some of the basic questions about an elusive, hypothesized force known as dark energy.
It's an alluring puzzle. Dark energy, as far as scientists can gather, acts like a form of "negative gravity." It is playing a key role in the acceleration of the expansion of the universe. Models, based on data from surveys such as NASA's Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe, predict that it makes up more than 70 percent of the universe. Its nature is unknown.
Astronomers and astrophysicists here and elsewhere are vitally interested in learning more about this force, and Lunnan is part of Princeton's effort.
"This is demonstrable proof that you can work on forefront matters here as an undergraduate," said Gott.
For Lunnan, the effort has forced her to rapidly learn the difference between normal, demanding coursework and a true research project. "I have always enjoyed my courses but, even with challenging problems, you know that there's a right answer," Lunnan said. "With this, it's really exciting to do something where you are starting with a question and not knowing what the answer will be in the end or even if there is going to be an answer. I really like it."
To begin to understand dark energy, Lunnan has joined a research project that has been embarked upon by Gott in conjunction with colleagues at Princeton and in Korea.
They are using what is known as an "N-body simulation" -- a massive computer program that attempts to recreate the behavior of particles under the influence of physical forces, like gravity. In their case, the program they are using produces a dynamic model of the evolving universe. Starting from the Big Bang, the explosive beginning of the universe, the simulation moves forward in time, creating structures such as huge accretions of galaxies known as haloes, strings of galaxies called filaments, stars and planets.
The N-body simulation Lunnan has been studying is the world's largest. It uses 70 billion particles moving in a volume that is roughly equivalent to the size of the space occupied by what a person can observe from Earth out to the edge of the visible universe.
Lunnan is particularly interested in special structures known as Luminous Red Galaxies or LRGs, viewed by astronomers as signposts of the warping power of dark energy. About 1.5 million of these galaxies are to be catalogued in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey III, a project being carried out by Princeton in collaboration with other institutions. The project began observations in July 2008 and will continue through 2014.
But before anyone gets to look at telescope data, there's a lot that can be learned through the simulation and by studying objects that resemble LRGs.
Lunnan's work is part of larger efforts among astronomers and astrophysicists at Princeton and elsewhere who are studying the elusive force known as dark energy. Part of that endeavor rests upon using massive computer programs, spurring Lunnan to master calculating techniques to complete her project.
When astronomers made the discovery a decade ago that the expansion of the universe was speeding up, they attributed this acceleration to dark energy, which they hypothesized pervaded otherwise empty space and exerted a repulsive gravitational force. Dark energy could be a cosmological constant proposed by Albert Einstein in 1917 in his theory of general relativity, or it could be a new form of energy whose properties evolve with time.
Distinguishing these possibilities, or determining whether the theory of gravity itself is at fault, requires measuring the history of cosmic expansion with a very high degree of precision, according to Gott. "If we can chart accurately the expansion history of the universe, we can learn more about the nature of the dark energy," he said.
The simulation will provide vital clues.
Clusters of galaxies are connected to other clusters of galaxies by great chains of galaxies, forming a giant cosmic web. As the universe expands, the web expands. Lunnan is picking through these webs by translating reams of computer data. By counting structures in the simulated cosmic web at different distances, researchers can see how much the web has expanded by different epochs. The fewer the structures Lunnan counts, the more the web will have expanded.
"This allows us to chart the expansion history of the universe and measure the properties of the dark energy driving the expansion," she said. "I am learning so much."

If you find them for this price, grab them. I personally paid $10. Sound is great for the price. They look very rugged and feel solid, I believe they are made from aluminum.

Libya: Humanitarians mobilize food and medical supplies
Intense fighting and insecurity are reported in Sirte, Bani Walid, and parts of southern Libya, continuing to hamper humanitarian access and assistance. Humanitarian actors have expressed concern over the situation in Sirte, where the electricity supply has reportedly been cut off and there are water shortages.
At a Geneva press conference on 26 September, Panos Moumtzis, the outgoing Humanitarian Coordinator for Libya, who left Tripoli last week after completing his assignment, said there was no direct information coming out of Sirte due to the lack of access for UN and NGO partners.
It is estimated that between 100,000 and 150,000 people are displaced in Libya, with about 6,000 people displaced from Sirte alone."The information we have comes from people who have managed to leave," said Moumtzis.
Serious protection concerns remain for civilians of around 50,000 IDPs from minority groups and third country nationals (TCNs). They have become more vulnerable to human rights violations due to direct threats to their physical security as well as social discrimination. Humanitarian actors are working to ensure that these IDPs have safe locations to seek shelter.
"We are mobilizing food and medical supplies on the outskirts. That is all we can do for the moment," Moumtzis stated. "For security reasons, we cannot cross over the lines." Humanitarian agencies are also providing medical assistance for war-wounded near the frontlines.
Humanitarian organizations continue to receive substantial requests for food assistance, especially in Sabha, Bani Walid and Sirte. However, exact numbers are still unclear and the numbers of people needing food aid may rise.
Otherconflict-affected parts of Libya are, however, stabilizing and life is gradually returning to normal. In these areas, humanitarian partners are looking at longer-term planning for early recovery and recovery activities.
Moumtzis emphasized that since the capture of Tripoli last month there had been "tremendous progress" in ensuring the delivery of humanitarian supplies to the capital and elsewhere. "We hope there will be a peaceful solution as soon as possible. The longer it continues, the more difficult it will be for civilians," he said.

Diabetic foot complications are characterized by ischaemia, neuropathy and infection. Patients with poor glycemic control, among other factors, are at high risk of developing diabetic foot. Early referral, non-invasive vascular testing, imaging and intervention are key to improving diabetic foot ulcer healing and to prevent amputation (1). In Zimbabwe diabetic patients visiting a primary care centre and diagnosed of diabetic foot ulcers are referred to the tertiary hospitals for further management or hospitalization. In order to alleviate the diabetic foot burden, and to improve quality of diabetes care, patient awareness and screening facilities are paramount. However, diabetologists as well as podiatry and diabetes informational resources are limited, suggesting the need for enhancing preventive care through empowering healthcare practitioners (HCP), patient education, efficient diagnostic tools and follow up services. While adapting to local needs, the aim of this proposal is to implement the Egypt protocol for diabetic patients attending diabetic clinics and primary care centres in Harare, Zimbabwe. The project will establish a preventive foot care centre and provide a screening and early detection service as well as education and awareness about diabetic foot complications and risk factors.
This project is part of our BRIDGES Research Net programme. BRIDGES is an International Diabetes Federation programme supported by an educational grant from Lilly Diabetes.

This is a tough one. Really depends what you're going for. I'm going to write this comparison from the view of a non-TT pre-560 Gallardo vs. the R8 V8.
Again, this here depends what you're going for. Girls absolutely go crazy over a white R8. It's very classy looking, feminine-esque styling, and the LED lights in the front and engine bay throw them over the top. The Gallardo on the other hand, much more edgy and extreme in every department. Personally, I like the front end on the R8 better (probably because the LED lighting), and much prefer the rear end of the Gallardo. If I had to choose one here, it's the Lamborghini…nothing else like it.
Here I have to choose the R8. Much more roomy feeling, leather is extremely soft, and hey the thing has cup holders lol. The steering wheel is the perfect size for my hands and I love the way it feels with how the car handles (also nice that includes controls for the audio). The front boot also feels bigger to me, but that might just be because the hood is so damn big. The Gallardo interior definitely feels dated in the pre-560 car, but it's very Lamborghini (accented stitching, suede headliner, tight feeling, so on).

Front row to fashion: Who sits where at New York Fashion Week can be tricky businessFebruary 3, 2014 11:55 PM
If New York Fashion Week is the Super Bowl of style, then the process of picking who gets in -- and who sits where -- is like a secret playbook.
Sometimes it can be a feat for media, retail buyers, celebrities and fashion fans just to get their names on the guest list. Scoring a seat instead of a standing space is even better. Manage to secure a spot in the front row -- touchdown!
For many designers and public relations firms, it's a hush-hush practice that is largely veiled from the public. (A handful of brands contacted for this story declined to comment on how their Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week guests are selected and seated.) A Q&A about runway show seating charts by fashion news outlet The Daily Front Row (www.fashionweekdaily.com) quoted an anonymous source.
"It's an amazing, bizarre process," says Jimmy Lepore Hagan, director of digital media for New York-based designer and Youngstown, Ohio, native Nanette Lepore.
And things could get even trickier. When the week of runway shows and presentations concentrated at tents on Manhattan's Upper West Side begins Thursday, some of the makeshift venues will have fewer seats, making access even more limited. More generous seating and media passes in recent seasons led some designers to lament that the atmosphere at the tents had grown too pedestrian.
"The redesigned venue offerings will enable designers to better control and reduce audience capacities, making invitations once again an exclusive pass for true fashion insiders," said a statement from IMG Fashion, a global leader in producing fashion shows.
More than 100 seats have been cut from Ms. Lepore's runway show Feb. 12 at Lincoln Center, Mr. Hagan says.
Some people pull out all the stops to try to make an impression.
"I've seen some crazy stuff," says Erin Hawker, owner and founder of Agentry PR. She has worked in the fashion industry for 20 years, and her firm is helping several designers orchestrate shows this month, including season four "Project Runway" winner Christian Siriano.
"People come up with these crazy sob stories. ... You kind of hear it all," she says, noting that one reporter even sends a big jar of candy each year.
"The requests that we get a lot are somewhere along the line of 'If you act like you're supposed to be there, someone will let you in,' " Mr. Hagan says. "I just feel there's a lot of very arrogant writing that doesn't defend itself and assumes its place. The [requests] that are successful are the ones that are short, honest and express a genuine admiration for the brand."
Social media, celebrities and reality TV shows, such as "Project Runway" and "America's Next Top Model," have elevated pop culture's interest in runway shows as entertainment. But, in the end, these shows are about boosting business for a brand.
A guest list should be those who are "appropriate and relevant to the brand to get the best exposure and publicity ... and hopefully lots of orders from stores," New York-based designer Betsey Johnson says in an email.
On Feb. 12 at Lincoln Center, she will present her new collection inspired by "American Hustle" and Rihanna.
Many brands begin planning their guest lists months in advance for a show that will likely last only about 15 or 20 minutes.
Ms. Lepore works with a third-party agency that helps organize the show and compile a list of potential guests. People with the brand go through the list to make sure information is accurate and to learn more about the names on it.
For bloggers -- a group whose presence has swelled at New York Fashion Week in recent years -- staff members research their websites' reach, visual design, quality of work and presence on social media.
"What we started to do this year is put less of a focus on numbers and more of a focus on aesthetic," Mr. Hagan says.
They also try to learn more about people's positions. For instance, if one person is an editor-in-chief of a startup blog with little readership and another is a writer for a major fashion website, the writer will take precedence over the editor, he says.
Despite the fluctuating digital media scene, magazines, metropolitan newspapers and business partners remain significant influencers of public opinion and, as a result, remain a large part of a runway show's audience.
It's about who's been loyal to you, Ms. Hawker says. "That doesn't really change."
Once a list has been finalized, the seating showdown begins. Usually, a certain number of chairs are allocated to media, bloggers, retailers, business contacts, celebrities, and friends and relatives.
"You should seat people where you get the most bang for your buck," Ms. Johnson says. "It's a hierarchy of celebrities, press, buyers and influential people in the industry."
A three-dimensional rendering of the venue is shown on a monitor and seats are filled one by one.
"When I first learned this trade, I guess [this process] was one of the more intimidating things. They go at 100 miles per hour," Mr. Hagan says. "I really wish people who had a seat knew they got that because someone else didn't."
The front row is the destination for VIP guests and top media outlets. If a couple of people from the same prominent publication attend, those who are reviewing the show typically will get the closer seat so they can see the fashions better, even if they don't necessarily have the more prestigious title, Ms. Hawker says.
With hundreds of events happening simultaneously across the city, it can be tough for brands to attract all of their desired guests. Some designers are now teaming up to do group presentations so media and buyers can view multiple collections at the same time and place. Ms. Hawker is planning an event in the West Village featuring a handful of menswear designers for this reason, she says.
Shows also have standing sections on hand to accommodate extra media and brand supporters once seats are filled. It's not uncommon for 200 or 300 people to show up at the door the day of the show and say they're friends of the designer or personally invited, Ms. Hawker says.
"We save the standing room area for the people who show up at the door."
And then there are the celebrities, the show before the show even begins. Paparazzi swarm the front row when a familiar face is spotted. Each Fashion Week there are stories of brands that dish out large sums of money to get attendance from A-list actresses or even one-hit-wonder reality personalities to create a buzz.
But many brands frown upon this behavior, reserving their seats for their strongest, sincerest supporters.
"Our relationships are organic. We don't pay people to sit in the front row," Mr. Hagan says. "We have to show people what we can give them, and what we can give them is our genuine admiration of their work ... by going to bat for them and giving them a seat."

My mom's parents around the time of their marriage.
Used November Sky; I am loving this collection.
You really chose the perfect papers for your fantastic photos! Wow, they look as if they were made for you. Love the way you used the initials and especially how you added the scripted date. Beautiful blending and embellishments/color choices on this old fashioned-feeling LO. I love it!
Very nice! I am going to have to give November Sky a look. You've sold me on it. Karen
I love this layout-- your picture blended really well! I love the colors, too.
What a cute couple! I love the large blended photo and the lace. Beautiful color choices, and I like the initials for the title work, too. I love it when the photos take center stage, and this LO does that very well.
Fabulous. Love the photos and how you blended the large one into the background. The frame that you used around the smaller photo is just beautiful and I love the added flower. Beautiful layout.

Having lost their opening two Six Nations tests to Italy and Wales, France appear to have regressed from the dizzy heights they were threatening to reach in November. But surely no one is going to be sucked in?
They will be here in June for a three-test grudge series - what with them still being a little filthy about the way the World Cup final ended - and what happened in the Six Nations will not matter. France could still be awful by June - or they could be brilliant. That is the thing to grasp - they have this extraordinary range of performance within them.
It would be entirely within France's nature to defeat championship favourites England at Twickenham next weekend and then follow up with a record defeat to Ireland. The introduction of coach Philippe St Andre after the last World Cup was supposed to put an end to France's propensity to be wildly erratic. St Andre, whose coaching teeth were cut in England, was appointed to deliver structure and discipline to underpin the Gallic flair he would coax back into the mix.
By November last year, he appeared to be bang on brief. France annihilated the Wallabies, dismantled the Pumas (something of a bogey team for them in the past) and then came from behind to subdue a rampant Samoa.
The All Blacks watched on, conscious of how good France might be by June this year when they arrive in New Zealand for a three-test series.
There was more than a hint of the old France; they were both brutal and beautiful. After enduring the bizarre mood swings of previous coach Marc Lievremont (who seemingly picked players sometimes to annoy the French media with whom he was often at war), a period of stability loomed.
But November is just a distant memory. France were outplayed by Italy in their opening Six Nations opener. The Italians mounted an impressive second half charge that saw France wilt and chief playmaker, Freddie Michalak, run for the hills.
A week later and they were tentative and short of ideas against Wales, eventually losing to a late George North try that owed more to France's lack of confidence than any creative genius on the part of the defending champions.
Almost 18 months into the job and the only consistency St Andre has brought is inconsistency.
No other side, maybe Australia, has the same spectrum of performance within them and the All Blacks need to understand that is a permanent state for France.
They haven't produced consistent form or results for the better part of a decade now. It hasn't mattered who has coached them, be it Bernard Laporte, Lievremont or St Andre, the French have fallen into the habit of surging, then collapsing.
They won the Grand Slam in April 2004, only to suffer a record defeat to the All Blacks in November that year. It was much the same in 2007 - they won the Six Nations, suffered two record defeats to the All Blacks, lost the opening game of the World Cup to Argentina and then beat the All Blacks in the quarter-final.
In 2011, they lost to Italy in the Six Nations, lost to Tonga and New Zealand in the pool rounds of the World Cup and still made the final, where they were a whisker away from winning.
It is maddening but the All Blacks should at least understand that rational analysis of France is not possible; that past performance is no indicator of future performance. Form is irrelevant, France are boom-and-bust and, while they may implode at Twickenham, that would have no bearing on their capacity to explode at Eden Park.

I do like the color of the old aqua better than the current. But using the current aqua for highlights is just genius. I would say you submit this to the Dolphins and see what they think.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
I like that alot Glads. Could you make the same helmet only with the Dolphin not coming completly through the ring, ala the 72 logo?
Here's the one I did. I didn't make the dolphin logo, found that on the web and combined it with the 72 ring. I like your coloring much better.
This is absolutely "PERFECT" in my book!!!!! Someone FINALLY gets it!!!!!
Yes! Yes! YES!! I remember seeing a Madden error with Ronnie Brown doing the wildcat and they used a logo similar to this. Do it Ross!!!!
The OP isn't bad. I love the new colors, and the attitude in the face. My only problem is how the ring is tilted, and thin on the right side and thick on the left. That looks terrible, but I like everything else if it was balanced.
Nice job.

Just four ingredients and 10 minutes prep is all you need to for an oven-ready Italian-style casserole.
Do you have meat lovers in your family? Any meat-filled ravioli can be used instead of the cheese-filled variety.
Add one of the following on the first layer of ravioli: 1 cup sliced mushrooms, 1 package (9 ounces) frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed to drain, or 1 1/2 ounces sliced pepperoni.
To make this super-easy recipe ahead of time, layer the ingredients in the baking dish, cover tightly with foil and refrigerate up to 24 hours. Bake as directed.
