Roundtable discussion on African-American perspectives on end-of-life care
This grant provides support to Tuskegee University's Center for Bioethics in Research and Health Care (The Center) for a two-day roundtable discussion on African-American perspectives on end-of-life care. The Center will convene a select group of professional caregivers, clergy, funeral directors, representatives of the criminal justice system, and academicians. The participants will be asked to discuss end-of-life issues they believe to be of utmost significance to the African-American community and to identify topics and criteria for a set of commissioned papers. These commissioned papers would serve as the framework for a future national conference and are intended to contribute to the body of knowledge in this field as well as facilitate dialogue and strategic planning for education, outreach, and research.

Silver and gold
Dear Readers,
I have a jury trial that begins on Monday. My keyboard will fall silent for more than a week after this post. Thanks.
Silver and gold, silver and gold, everyone wishes for silver and gold" -- "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer."
The television and radio airwaves are filled with ads about silver and gold. TV ads want you to sell your silver and gold. Radio and Internet ads want you to buy it. What gives?
Precious metals are currently up a large amount. Gold has been bouncing around at about $1,200 per ounce for the last couple of months. It spent all of the 1990s at about $300 to $400. Silver has been bouncing around about $18 per ounce. Silver spent all of the 1990s at about $4.50 per ounce. Why? Is the smart person buying or selling?
We have all heard the old adage, "buy low and sell high." But what is low and what is high? Should I get in now, or is it too late?
In my opinion, that depends on what your intentions are. I started collecting coins when I was 12-years-old. I had quite the collection until someone else desired it more than I apparently did. That said, I have semi passively followed the precious metals markets and collectable coins market for several decades.
Among the best pieces of advice I have come across is: Coins and precious metals aren't really an investment. Rather, they are a store of value. In something I read somewhere, a writer commented that an ounce of silver will buy as much food staples today as it would buy in Roman times. I don't know if it is true, but it is a plausible and interesting thought.
Suppose you had some money that you could save or invest. What to do? Interest rates are generally below 1 percent. The stock market has been up and down but unable to stay above 10,000 for the past 10 years. Real estate is down, and unoccupied property can eat you alive with taxes and other costs. Gold and silver are bragging that they have been steadily rising over the past few years.
The "experts" say that inflation has been somewhere between 1 percent and -1 percent. Apparently, these experts haven't been grocery shopping over the past couple of years. Inflation takes wealth from people who have cash (each dollar is worth less) and increases the cost of stuff making it more valuable (it costs more dollars to get). Inflation means that the value of real estate, stocks, and tangible assets will rise as the value of the dollar falls.
I am not by any means an expert. However, I don't know how a government can spend trillions of dollars it does not have without inflation showing up sooner or later. If inflation comes, it is better to have less cash and more stuff. People with cash savings, money markets, bonds, CD's, etc. will take it on the chin. People who have stuff like stocks, real estate, metals, etc., will suffer less.
Should you buy silver or gold? That depends on each individual. People with large amounts of money to invest who have a diversified investment strategy are probably fine. People who own profitable real estate are probably fine. But even "little guys" can save a few old coins.
If you have money that you do not need for your regular expenses and are willing to take the risk of loss, if it is something you can hang onto for a long time and are not expecting to "get rich quick," you may consider buying some silver or gold.
WARNING: In 1980, when silver rose to $46 per ounce, my mother bought a couple of ounces with the intent of selling when it went up from there. That day, a Friday, the price crested $50 per ounce. On Monday morning, the U.S. Treasury announced that it was selling some of its silver and gold reserves and the price tumbled. Mom still has that silver. The highest it has ever gotten since that day is $19.60 per ounce.
If you chose to buy some silver or gold, one expert I read advised the following:
Always take physical possession, don't buy commodities contracts. Never pay above market prices (No Premiums). Buy bullion for "business," buy collectibles for fun. Buy silver first, then gold. Buy small gold first, then large. Never buy exotic coins, modern rarities, or anything you don't understand. Know who you are dealing with; it is easy to get ripped off. If the government can't find it, they can't take it (like they did in 1933). Never swap bullion coins for U.S. $20 gold pieces. (They have a high premium because of their collectors' interest since they were largely seized by the government and melted in 1933.) NEVER break the law.

Decision makers
- Bradford Council
Block planning for Meat Processing Plant next to Bradford sikh temple
Sikhs are strict vegetarians and killing living beings is against the beliefs of Sikhs. Should this go ahead, it would cause significant emotional distress to the large local Sikh community due to the animal carcasses being delivered and stored next door to a holy place of worship. The smell from the dead animals would be highly offensive and seriously impact the ability of Sikhs to worship at the temple.
On Tuesday 13 August 2013 Bradford Council approved the planning application by Pakeezah Supermarket to open a meat processing plant directly behind Guru Gobind Singh Gurdwara (Sikh Temple), off Leeds Road, Bradford. This petition has now closed, but the battle goes on with a new petition with even greater community wide support. Please follow the below link and support us one more time:

CAMBRIDGE, MA — A majority of Americans lack confidence in the quality of leadership in the nation, according to a new national study conducted jointly by the Center for Public Leadership (CPL) at the John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University, and U.S. News & World Report. Almost three-quarters of Americans (73 percent) believe their leaders are out of touch with the average person. Sixty-six percent believe we are facing a leadership crisis, and 72 percent believe the United States will decline as a nation unless the country gets better leaders.
The study data were collected by TSC, a division of Yankelovich, Inc. It consisted of telephone interviews with 1,374 adults from September 13–23. A report on the survey findings, the National Leadership Index 2005: A National Study of Confidence in Leadership, can be found at www.ksg.harvard.edu/leadership. The report was developed by the Kennedy School's Center for Public Leadership, which was created to serve the common good by promoting excellence in leadership research, education, and development.
Survey results are being released in conjunction with the launch of "America's Best Leaders 2005" by U.S. News & World Report. This special issue, to be featured annually, is on the newsstands today.
Additional key findings include:
• Sixty-five percent Americans are optimistic about the future of American leadership — saying it is likely that the country will have better leaders in the future.
• Well over half (64 percent) of adult men and women believe the nation would be better off if there were more women in leadership positions. However, men (69 percent) are more likely than women (61 percent) to agree.
• The American public has little confidence in the leadership of most sectors of society. Among eleven sectors studied, Americans have the highest confidence in military leaders (40 percent) and medical leaders (30 percent).
• Americans have the lowest overall confidence in the press, the executive branch and Congress. For example, when asked to rate their overall confidence level, 20 percent reported having no confidence at all in the press.
• Americans are not confident that their leaders are prepared to lead in a crisis. This view is shared across gender, political parties, geography, and age groups.
• In the event of a crisis such as a natural disaster or terrorist attack, 62 percent of Americans believe that they personally have the greatest responsibility to ensure their safety — more responsibility than the local government or the federal government.
• Young adults (age 18-24) are more likely than any other group to choose "charisma" as the most important quality for having confidence in a leader.
• People who say organized religion is very important to them rate "personal character" as most important to their confidence in leadership. Yet, interestingly, personal character influences the actual confidence ratings of religious and non-religious people equally.
"Americans understand the value of leadership and are yearning for more throughout American life," said David Gergen, director of the Center for Public Leadership and U.S. News' Editor-at-Large. "While critical of leaders today, they are optimistic about leaders in the future. Clearly, achieving high levels of leadership is a crucial challenge for our nation."
"This study allows us to take a unique scientific look at Americans confidence in leadership, yielding some surprising findings," said Todd L. Pittinsky, assistant professor of public policy at the Kennedy School and the lead author of CPL's National Leadership Index 2005: A National Study of Confidence in Leadership. "Take, for example, the discrepancy between what people say is most important to them in a leader and how they actually make their decisions about which leaders inspire the most confidence. The findings reveal that for Republicans, character is a more important determinant of their confidence in a leader than it is for Democrats or Independents.
Similarly, character is a more important determinant for people who say organized religion is very important to them than it is for those who are not as religious. Interestingly, however, in actual confidence ratings, Republicans, Democrats, and Independents, as well as the very religious and the not-so-religious, all give equal weight to personal character."
Survey Methodology
Survey results were obtained through telephone interviews among a representative sample of adults (18 years of age or older) in the continental United States. A total of 1,374 respondents were interviewed, including an oversample of 172 18- to 24-year-olds in order to bring the total number of 18- to 24-year-olds in the sample to 250.
The interviews were conducted September 13–23, 2005. The sampling error among the nationally representative sample of 1,200 is plus or minus 2.8%.

Massive influx of asylum seekers coming to the Netherlands20 May 2014, by Alexandra Gowling
The numbers of asylum seekers coming to the Netherlands has increased to 1.000 people a week, up from 1.000 a month at the start of the year.
According to Dutch State Secretary for Safety and Justice Fred Teeven, the number of refugees is alarming and measures need to be taken to cope with the massive influx.
If the situation remains the same, there will be 65.000 asylum seekers in the Netherlands at the end of the year.
Reasons for increase in asylum seekers
Speaking to Dutch television show Eén op één, Teeven said most of the asylum seekers come from Syria and Eritrea, arriving by train from southern Europe. While the massive increase in numbers is due in great part to upheavals in the asylum seekers' countries of origin, he also said that there was evidence of serious organised people smuggling.
"You can see that by the clothes that people have and the fact that their stories are aligned. Also, they all have the same amount of money with them," he explained.
Many asylum seekers come across the Mediterranean and land in Italy, which is struggling to cope. Italy said recently it might have to stop registering and finger printing asylum seekers because there are too many.
Teeven opposes this, calling it the failure of the European asylum system and something that needs to be resolved in a European context. If it went ahead with its threat, Italy would be in contravention of the Dublin Convention.
Tightening controls
In order to control the massive spike in migration into the Netherlands, mobile surveillance has been stepped up in border areas in recent weeks, with hundreds of additional patrols.
Actual border controls cannot be tightened as the Netherlands is part of the Schengen area, signatories of which agrees to have open borders.
Teeven has also called people who work in logistics to be alert and report any suspicions of trafficking they have.
The Public Prosecution Service (Openbaar Ministerie) and the Dutch police and military police will investigate claims of organised people smuggling.
"This must be completely managed in a number of months," said Teeven. "These numbers are not manageable for the Netherlands."
Housing asylum seekers in the Netherlands
The surge in refugees has led to a huge shortage in places for them to stay. The Central Agency for the Reception of Asylum Seekers (COA) is working to find new locations, as regular capacity will only cope with the numbers for another two months.
Three new centres have already opened since January, while two more will be open soon. The Dutch government is also considering using vacant barracks and even sports halls and empty schools.
In the worst case, if nothing changes, Teeven said it will become necessary to house asylum seekers in tent camps or abandoned prisons.
Criticism of Dutch treatment of asylum seekers
Even before these emergency responses have been put into place, the Dutch response to asylum seekers has drawn criticism.
A German judge recently decided an asylum seeker could not be returned to the Netherlands, where he had first applied for asylum and been rejected, as there was a risk of inhumane treatment.
The judge decreed that there was not sufficient evidence to ensure that asylum seekers in the Netherlands are equipped with basic necessities such as food and shelter.

Asylum seekers are often victims of wars. 1. Instead of intensifying controls at the borders E.U. & nation policy makers should be concerned with their attitude towards these wars.
2. Countries that just happened to be geographically easily accessible (Italy, Greece, Libanon) cannot bear all the consequences of the 'first country' receiver. The national responsibility should simply become European if we want it to be a 'Union'.

The Bibiani Anhwiaso Bekwai District Development (BABDD) Project
January 2011 to March 2014
WUSC began working with regional government in rural, western Ghana in January 2011 on a multi-stakeholder initiative to improve education, employment and governance in 12 communities in the Bibiani-Anhwiaso-Bekwai region. Our partners on this project were the district government of Bibiani-Anhwiaso-Bekwai and the Ministry of Local Government and Rural Development of Ghana. Funding partners were the Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development and Rio Tinto Alcan. Taking an integrated approach on development issues, the project looked at key aspects of development at the local level ̶ i.e. education, hygiene, water, sanitation, youth employability ̶ and the overarching issue of governance and community participation in development processes.
WUSC worked to enhance the knowledge, coordination and overall capacity of the Bibiani-Anhwiaso-Bekwai District Assembly to help improve accountability and sustainability and facilitate upgraded service delivery to the 134,000 district residents in education, water sanitation and economic development. WUSC worked with the District Assembly to strengthen policy and planning mechanisms, to experiment with participatory approaches and to build capacity via training, best practices, knowledge sharing and skill-building initiatives for district authorities at several levels. District Assembly members as well as village leaders and local committee members benefitted from a suite of capacity building efforts which led to increased citizen participation as well as greater accountability and transparency. In education, the initiative resulted in improved teacher training in addition to the formation and ongoing training of School Management Committees. WUSC's involvement with the district authorities supported the improvement of water and sanitation policies and infrastructure to better answer the needs of all community members, resulting in improved hygiene and greater access to clean water. The project contributed to economic growth and poverty reduction by providing training to marginalized youth and women in high-demand agricultural sectors. The training included key employment skills in business, entrepreneurship, gender equality and management.
BABDDP is an example of what an innovative multi-stakeholder collaboration can achieve and represents positive steps towards good practice for the mining sector.
Rio Tinto Alcan, as part of its commitment to responsible mining practices, provided $300,000 over three years to the project, and maintained their commitment after the company sold its share of the operation in 2010. The project also received $500,000 from the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), which has since merged with the Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development.
The public-private-NGO collaboration was founded on the commitment of these stakeholders to maximize the contributions of mining operations for socio-economic benefits and sustainable development of 12 communities in the BAB district.
BABDDP's goals of enhancing governance, citizen participation and services in the district have been achieved. The 12 communities participating in this project have become active advocates of their development needs. An active link between local government, communities, and development planners is in place and the district's priority development challenges of education quality, water and sanitation, youth employability have been addressed and sustainable mechanisms have been established.
Some specific results of the Bibiani-Anhwiaso-Bekwai District Development Project:
- 102 community projects supporting governance, education, access to water and sanitation were implemented during the project. These projects are ongoing and executed with the support of community members, the District Assembly and mining companies in the area.
- 24 boys and girls clubs were created to strengthen the quality of education in the district. The clubs provide a safe space for 1,222 students (591 boys and 631 girls) and its programs help to improve self-esteem and skills in communication, teamwork, problem solving and leadership.
- All 12 communities have increased access to clean water and cleaner sanitation facilities as a result of improved processes by water and sanitation committees to design and implement water and sanitation policies and projects.
- 325 youth trained in skills for employment in four agricultural trades with potential for sound revenues: bee keeping, cocoa nursery, piggery and poultry.
- Education, water and sanitation and community action committees are now better organized thanks to 23 training workshops using the proven participatory approach. The committees are more efficient, hold regular meetings and ensure the monitoring and supervision of all community initiatives.
- Training for District Assembly officers and members have increased competencies in participatory learning, monitoring and evaluation, community mobilization, gender inclusion in planning and budgeting, and in environmental sustainability to support district and community priorities.
The partnership began in 2007 when WUSC initiated discussions with the stakeholders on ways in which WUSC could support the delivery of quality education in the district. Improving education and strengthening local governance and development was a goal for the BAB District Assembly as well as for Rio Tinto Alcan, who, at the time operated the Ghana Bauxite Company (GBC) in the district, and shown a firm commitment to socio-economic development in the region. WUSC had been working in Ghana since 1997 in the area of education, specifically to help Ghana decentralize and improve its education system (Ghana Education Decentralization Project) and to improve access and participation in school for girls (Girl-Child Education Project).
WUSC and its partners started with a pilot project in one community, Awaso. The Kanaso School pilot project succeeded in creating an exceptional school environment with quality teaching and learning for children, as was the goal. The partners then looked at extending the scope of their joint efforts to advance sustainable development in the whole district and support the district's Medium-Term Development Plan. WUSC conducted detailed, frank discussions with Rio Tinto Alcan to ensure that the partnership shared a common vision and objective and proposed a three-year initiative for development in the BAB district.

While creating my art in magical locations I am reminded of the interconnectedness of our world. Society is dependent on the natural environment for peace and well-being. It is my goal to communicate this belief so that we can build stronger / healthier communities with a greater understanding and sense of connection with our fragile ecosystem. Among the aspirations and motivations for my art work is a strong drive to save this beautiful planet for our children.
The word photography means 'drawing with light' (from the Greek), this is exactly what I strive for when attempting to achieve a unique vision in my search for significant form. My exploration of form has grown from the pallet of landscape photography, and now includes intimate landscapes, human forms and creations. My earliest artworks were drawings and paintings of natural objects and the Australian landscape. The rendering of light and form with the pencil and paintbrush have evolved to the use of lens, camera and film.
I prefer to use intuitive photographic methods over highly technical or scientific approaches. I find myself using black and white film and large format cameras to capture the natural forms as my primary subject matter. Doing so allows me to keep in touch with my feelings and my relationship with nature. I consciously choose rag paper as the medium for my prints, as a natural medium; a traditional renewable resource. I work with pigment inks on paper as I know that the artwork will remain stable to ensure its longevity. It will always be magical to touch and beautiful to behold. Paper enables me to stay in touch with drawing and printmaking skills which were the foundations of my experience in art. I believe art on paper also evokes the connection to the plant the paper originated from, and represents the interconnections within the ecosystem.
Currently the direction of my work strives to move away from the current 'landscape photographer' status quo, in an attempt to discover a Modern Australian Landscape Style. One where the artwork is timeless, unique and the photographs illustrate the spiritual within nature. My subject matter has expanded to include interpretations of the human figure and the viewer will begin to see the figure being included in my landscape photography as I experiment with our interrelationships with the earth."

The rumours on Ajith Kumar and Silambarasan, a self-proclaimed Thala fan, have been doing rounds for a while. Earlier, it was said that the duo would be seen in the remake of Bollywood hit movie Race. However, the latest speculation was that Simbu would be doing a cameo in Ajiths next movie directed by Siva.
However, Siva has clarified that Silambarasan has not been signed to do a cameo in his next movie.

But he believes that there is a special character in the movie and a leading actor has to be signed for the guest appearance. Nonetheless, the buzz says that there are chances of Simbu doing the special role.

The American/Turkish architecture firm Eray Carbajo has unveiled Urban Rural, a new typology of urban living set to become a benchmark for future development in Istanbul, Turkey. The vision behind Urban Rural is for a hybrid model of living, combining close proximity to urban centers with the lush landscape of rural life. Challenging the status quo of typical residential typologies, the scheme will consist of modular hexagonal units with triangular gardens, forming an active façade designed to become a future landmark for the city.

Not at all like other conventional blood diminishing medications, the utilization of Xarelto lawsuits is associated with genuine complications and reactions that can regularly lead to the death of a patient.
If you have encountered reactions from Xarelto, here is a rundown of reasons for you to hire a Xarelto lawsuit attorney: Learn more about xarelto lawsuit settlement.
Legal assessment
A professional and experienced Xarelto lawyer can assess your particular situation and accordingly assemble a solid case. They can evaluate your medial history and monetary misfortunes to establish a feasible action plan with the end goal for you to get full and fair compensation.
Simply, a professional lawyer has a rich skill and involvement in Xarelto lawsuits and can offer you advice on recording a claim and the legal procedures.
Trial representation
Another reason to work with a Xarelto attorney is that they can speak to your case in court if need be. Xarelto legal procedures are broad and complicated; subsequently, a specialized lawyer can make matters easier for you and battle for your legal case in a court.
Evidence collection
A solid legal case depends on convincing confirmation. Also, the gigantic number of hours gathering that proof. Along these lines, a Xarelto lawsuit attorney has the assets to gather solid confirmation to demonstrate that Xarelto's advertisements were misleading or that it is a dangerous medication. Lawyers have sources and contacts, who can construct your claim against a corporate giant.
Estimation of value
Perhaps the most significant reason for employing a Xarelto attorney is that they are aware of approximate values of wounds. At the end of the day, they have a clear idea of how much financial compensation you are qualified for.
While seasoned Xarelto lawyers will persevere relentlessly to help you get financial compensation, now and then they may advice you to look for a settlement outside court if the case helps not look in out. After a claim has been documented, your Xarelto lawsuit attorney can negotiate a fair pre-trial settlement - in a case of mediation.
Contingency fee
Most Xarelto lawsuits attorneys don't charge a possibility expense to their customers. This means that they won't charge a legal expense unless they win or settle your case.
Time saver
Lawsuits can be tedious and mentally draining. If you don't have hours to gather medical records and other data related to your lawsuit, it is best that you hire a professional to handle the matter for you.
Finally, it is imperative to remember that statute of limitation force strict deadlines on the time duration for recording a claim. Thus, you ought to hire a xarelto lawsuits attorney at once to guarantee you get compensation for past and future medical costs, lost wages, emotional and mental pain and emotional enduring, and funeral costs on account of wrongful death.

New Swedish government weighs quotas for women on company boards
STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - A new Swedish government could introduce quotas to bring more women onto company boards if businesses don't act themselves during the next two years, a spokesman for the Green Party said on Wednesday.
The Green Party looks set to be the junior coalition partner in the incoming government headed by the Social Democrats, who became the biggest party in a general election on Sept 14.
Women are expected to fill a number of key cabinet posts in the new government, which will be announced on Friday, including that of finance minister and foreign minister.
"We are sending a clear signal to the big companies that if by 2016 they don't have at least 40 percent of women on their boards, then we going to try and get a law passed in parliament," Green Party spokesman Gustav Fridolin said.
Scandinavia has among the highest percentage of female parliamentarians in the world and a feminist party fell only just short of the four percent of votes necessary to win parliamentary seats in this month's ballot.
However, women have a far harder time reaching top posts in the private sector.
Women make up 29 percent of the non-executive boards of Swedish blue-chip companies, ahead of the European average of 20 percent, according to data from the European Union. But Sweden lags behind countries like Iceland and Norway.
In 2003, Norway became the first country in the world to impose a gender quota requiring at least 40 percent of public limited company board members to be women.
Other countries, including France, the Netherlands and Spain, have followed with similar requirements. Continued...

Indiana race could be showdown over school changes
The campaign to lead Indiana's education department is being watched as a referendum on school policies pushed by conservatives across the country.
Republican Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Bennett is seeking a second term. He's opposed by Democrat Glenda Ritz, who is a suburban Indianapolis teachers union leader.
Bennett has earned a national reputation for implementing widespread changes like private school vouchers and merit pay for teachers.
But he is under siege by teachers who feel they're being unfairly blamed for declining school performance. Ritz argues Bennett's agenda is a thinly veiled attempt to privatize public education.
Bennett's campaign has a heavy advantage in funding.
National education experts say the election results will show whether the public supports Bennett's policies, which are being copied around the country.
