Background/Purpose: Afterschool programs (3-6pm, ASPs) are positioned to play a vital role in the improvement children's daily physical activity (PA). Recent guidelines specify children should accumulate 4,600steps•day-1 while attending an ASP. The extent to which ASPs currently meet this goal and how many steps•day-1 children naturally accumulate within the ASP setting is unknown. The purpose of this study was to describe the pedometer-determined PA of a large sample of children attending a diverse range of ASPs and evaluate the extent to which ASPs are meeting current PA guidelines.
Method: Children (N = 934, 51% girls, avg 8.2yrs range 4-14yrs) enrolled across 25 ASPs wore Walk4Life MVPa pedometers (number of steps accumulated, time spent active [hrs:mins:sec]) up to 4 days. Three-level random intercept models (days within children within ASPs) were estimated.
Analysis/Results: On average children attended ASPs for 125min•day-1, accumulated 2,944steps•day-1, and spent approximately 26.6min•day-1 in PA. Only 16.5% of the 1,819 daily observations met the 4,600steps•day-1 guideline. No differences in steps•day-1, min•day-1 in PA, or demographics were observed among children measured a single day versus 2, 3 or 4 days. Based on current practice, children would need to spend approximately 3.4hrs•day-1 at an ASP to reach 4,600steps•day-1.
Conclusions: Activity levels in ASPs are well below current recommendations, suggesting substantial effort is needed to identify strategies ASPs can employ to ensure children are sufficiently active. The methodology and estimates provided herein can serve to inform the planning of future studies evaluating or intervening on PA within ASPs.

The Principles Of European Contract Law 1997 Parts I and II (unofficial preview of the provisional complete and revised version)
European Union
copy @ Lex Mercatoria
(1) A party's right to terminate the contract is to be exercised by notice to the other party.
(2) The aggrieved party loses his right to terminate the contract unless he gives notice within a reasonable time after he has or ought to have become aware of the non-performance.
(a) When performance has not been tendered by the time it was due, the aggrieved party need not give notice of termination before a tender has been made. If a tender is later made he loses his right to terminate if he does not give such notice within a reasonable time after he has or ought to have become aware of the tender.
(b) If, however, the aggrieved party knows or has reason to know that the other party still intends to tender within a reasonable time, and the aggrieved party unreasonably fails to notify the other party that he will not accept performance, he loses his right to terminate if the other party in fact tenders within a reasonable time.
(4) If a party is excused under Article 8:108 through an impediment which is total and permanent, the contract is terminated automatically and without notice at the time the impediment arises.

We are always looking for ways to improve the accuracy and completeness of our flagship product, the EDR Radius Map report. So, when we were thinking about important information that might not make it into a normal government records search, but is critical for helping environmental professionals identify RECs, we thought about how historical sources like city directories might be integrated into database reports.

A recent update to Adobe Reader, the program most commonly used to view PDF files, is causing viewing problems for some of you. The latest version of Adobe Reader (10.1.4) has some issues with JPG2000 compression that will make it difficult to view compressed, high resolution images files- like EDR Sanborn Maps. Specifically, the zoom feature can become disabled for certain images.

As more information becomes available on state environmental agency websites, the data compiled in your EDR Radius Map Report is becoming even more powerful. States like California, Florida and Texas are digitizing their environmental records, making access to this information easier than ever for environmental consultants, but at the same time adding to the amount of information that might need to be reviewed in order to meet ASTM E1527's "reasonably ascertainable" and "practically reviewable" thresholds.

In the spring of 2012, EDR acquired a collection of over 3,000 historical city directory books, many which are the only remaining copy and were set to be disposed of forever. We are scanning and preserving these important historical records for future generations, while bringing information on past property use to environmental consultants more quickly than ever before. Watch what happens when 3,000 books arrive at EDR headquarters in Milford, CT. All hands on deck!

You probably know that ASTM E1527-05 includes language regarding the currency of government records searched as part of a Phase I ESA. But, did you know that E1527 also requires that updates to government data be documented by the database company?

Why The Video Looks Shaky (Don Ward)
Updated: 7:06 PM - We did a quick helicopter tour of the Black Forest burn area. Someone asked why the video looks shaky.
Fifteen-year-old Casey Goodman is a freshman at Air Academy High School in Colorado Springs. When he was 10, his father was deployed to Saudi Arabia, and Goodman says he remembers how hard that was for him.
Now, he's using $200 of his own money, along with some family contributions to put together packages with disposable cameras, stationary, crayons and markers to encourage other kids with parents overseas to keep in touch with them.
So far, Casey has assembled about 70 bags. But, he is hoping to do more.
If you or your business would like to make a donation to support Casey's effort, you can drop off supplies at any Pikes Peak YMCA location.
The bags will be distributed to kids ages 5-10 on April 5, which is Military Appreciation Day. They will be given out at the YMCA on Jet Wing.

text: I bought a 40mm grenadier version of the LBV on Ebay for $25 and removed all of the pockets. Then, I bought some 1" Nylon webbing, some Nylon upholstery thead (strong stuff) and six Molle II RACK M4 Double Mag pouches (also off of Ebay). A lot of sowing later, I had three vertical Molle attachment straps on each panel to which I mounted three of the mag pouches (horizontally mounted similar to the SOMAV) to each side. It cost me around $120 total and has taken some serious abuse without any sign of failure. I decided to make it after seeing the SOMAV, but I did not want to pay $400 for it. Of course, my life doesn't depend on my gear and my choice would be different if it did.

You may be more familiar with the work of the English director Neil Marshall than you think.
He made a splash with the well-received "The Descent" in 2005, and he recently directed the much-talked about "Blackwater" episode of "Game of Thrones."
So you should definitely be paying attention to his next project, "The Last Voyage of the Demeter," which may or may not have found its lead.
A report from Bloody Disgusting claims that an offer went out to Viggo Mortensen to star in the film, which takes an expanded look at one portion of Bram Stoker's original "Dracula" novel.
Learn more after the jump!
If Mortensen has actually been offered the role and he accepts, he will play Henry Clemens, a crew member of the Russian ship that transports Count Dracula from his home in Transylvania to London.
It's an iconic part of Stoker's novel, and one that does not end well.
None of the crew survives the trip.
Mortensen recently committed to reprise his role as Nikolai for David Cronenberg's sequel to "Eastern Promises."
Would you like to see Viggo Mortensen in "The Last Voyage of the Demeter"? Let us know in the comments below and on Twitter!... See Complete Article @ MTV Movies

The Saline Reporter VOLUME 14, NUMBER 42 - WEDNESDAY, JULY 1, 1964 10c PER COPY — $3 PER YEAR OARD HIRES NEW SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENT GOP Primary Slated In New 51st District Modern theories on infant care have finally recognized that Grandma had something, in her display of affection and the soothing rhythm of the old-fashioned rocking chair. So Hospital Administrator Ray Anderson, above right, was delighted to receive one for use in the nursery . . . and so were the nurses, who will find it a lot more comfortable than a straight chair for feeding the babies. The rocker is a gift to the hospital from the Homemakers Study Group, an extension club, presented by Mrs. Elroy Vanderpool and Mrs. Harold Wilson, above left. Admiring it (center) are Gloria Masterka, R.N., and Jean Karnatz, Director of Nurses here. The hospital's faith in the therapeutic and comfort value of rocking chairs is evidenced by the fact that there is another one . . . but it is in use in the maternity ward by patients and nurses and so cannot he taken into the nursery. Loud Lady Retired: Reporter's New Press > Arrive This Week Reporter crewmen have always been able to boast, "We may not be the biggest newspaper in the world . . . we're just the loudest." They've never had a challenger. Anyone who ventured into The Reporter's back room, on press day, knew it had to be so. Our big Miehle newspaper press was faithful, reliable, and capable of delivering a beautiful job of printing . . . but she was loud! Visitors would tremble and struggle against blind panic when we cranked her up 350 Register For Summer Recreation Approximately 350 Saline area children have registered for the summer recreation program, Clem Corona, director of the program, announced this week. Average attendance at the first week's activities included 108 for swimming at the YM- YWCA in Ann Arbor, 65 for swimming at Tappan Junior High School, 70 for girls' soft- ball, 48 for arts and crafts, and 41 for swimming at Wamp- lers Lake. . In the future, the bus for the Tappan pool will leave at 9:25 a-m., about five minutes earlier than previously scheduled, to make sure that participants can be in the pool and ready to swim by 10 a.m., Corona said. No further registrations can be taken for the swimming instruction part of the program at the "Y" or at Tappan pool after Thursday, July 2, but registration for other phases of the program will be permitted, Corona said. each week. The men who operated her would wonder daily just how soon we'd be rendered permanently deaf by her thunder. She was loud. And she was slow. Too slow to keep pace with rapidly growing Saline. We could have struggled with the old press for another few years, but inevitably, eventually we'd be forced to move her out to make room for faster, bigger- capacity equipment. Recently we decided not to wait. We want to lead Saline's growth . . . not to be dragged along in the rear. So this week the old press goes out and a new press will be erected in its place. The new equipment will allow longer press runs in shorter time; will give us at least equal quality printing as we've gotten from the old model; and will help us to do lots more in the graphic arts field to tell more and more people what a wonderful city Saline is. And the new press runs quietly. We'll no longer be able to boast we're the loudest. The old press will be moved out after publication of this week's Reporter. Then a pit must be constructed before delivery of the new one, expected Monday. This will allow the press crew two days in which to become familiar with the new equipment, enough, we think, to allow them to bring out next week's Reporter right on time. Printed on the new press, The Reporter may look a little different. But type will be the same size and style, and the pages will continue to be packed, as always, with local news. It. will be your own Reporter, better than ever. News Commentator Albert Samborn Seeks Nomination A Republican primary contest for the 51st district legislative post was virtually assured today with the announcement by Albert J. Samborn, WPAG program director and news manager, that he would be a candidate for the nomination. Samborn, a Republican, will challenge the incumbent representative in the new district, Thomas G. Sharpe, of Howell, on the September 1 primary ballot. The district includes the city of Saline and villages of Chelsea, Dexter, and Manchester, rural townships in the western part of Washtenaw County, all of Livingston County, and one township of Lenawee County. Samborn, 41,- lives in Scio Township, near Dexter. Although the 51st is 60 miles long, and ranges between five miles and 25 miles wide, Samborn said in his announcement that there is "a certain amount of logic" in its boundaries. He added: "No matter what one might think of the redistricting about the state, there is a degree of logic to the boundaries of the 51st that gives some cause for optimism for effective representation.'- It has- --an economic base of agriculture; considerable industrial and business development, distinguished by variety and number of small and medium-sized firms; and a famed natural beauty and extensive recreational facilities." "The district does not have the large industrial concerns, such as the General Motors and Ford plants near Ypsilanti,- but if you're not familiar with the area it's easy to underestimate the extent of industrial activity." "I believe that this district has a number of common interests ~ its growing industrial activity, the number and size of its communities, the agriculture and recreation facilities — that can be effectively maintained by an individual in Lansing committed to represent those interests." "I see the immediate years ahead as crucial years for the people in this district. The population explosion is beginning to spill over into what is essentially a rural-village area and will, by itself, present many problems. The smaller business and industrial concern, during a time when emphasis everywhere is on large size, is an issue of vital importance to this district." "For the past 17 years I have been doing husiness with and communicating with the people living and working in the area bounded by the new district lines. I think that I have an understanding of the common interests and the common problems." Samborn graduated from the University of Michigan in 1949 after serving nearly five years with the U.S. Navy. He is married and has two children. Samborn is a member of the Dexter Board of Education, the executive committee of the Washtenaw. County Chapter of the Red Cross, and the state board of directors of the Michigan United Fund. The family belongs to the Dexter Methodist Church. Steak Date Set Aug* 16 By Rotary August 16 has been set as the date for the Saline Rotary Club's first Steak Fry, to be held at the Washtenaw Farm Council Grounds. Preparations for the event have already started, with the engagement of "Mr. Meat", famed member of the Michigan Livestock Improvement Association, to supervise the fry. Chief item on the August 16 menu will be huge rib eye steaks, all U.S.D.A. "choice", broiled in stainless steel grills over i/i-ton or more of charcoal, and prepared to each customer's specifications. The meal will also include baked potato, butter, rolls, coffee, milk, two varieties of salad and ice cream. "Mr. Meat", also known as Pat- Brown, of Williamston, puts on fries such as the one planned by Rotary, to promote the use of Michigan beef. His services, contributed for the day, will be backed, up by help from all Saline Rotarians. Tickets for the feast will be available shortly. Harold J. Hintz, 50, Of Hanover - Horton, To Start in August School Board President Bess Tefft briefs Harold J. Hintz on the Saline area district which he will serve as superintendent of schools . . . with help from the "Saline Welcomes You" brochure, which Hintz is inspecting. She new superintendent will attend the July Board of Education meeting, but expects to move his family here about the first of August. JC's Pick Merritt Martin National Vice President Merritt Martin, Saline Jaycee and immediate past president of the Michigan Jaycees, has been elected one of 10 vice presidents of the national Junior Chamber of Commerce. He was named to the position by delegates at the organization's national convention, attended by about 8,000 Jaycees, in Dallas, Tex., last week. (The new title was a hard-earned "gift" which came on his birthday, June 25.) In his job as national vice president, Martin has been assigned the states of Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota and Kansas, which he will visit frequently to meet with Jaycee executive committees, attend state conclaves, and assist in programming. Mrs. Austin Heads Saline Red Cross Mrs. George Austin, representing the Saline branch of the Washtenaw County chapter, American Red Cross, was elected to the board of directors of that organization at the annual meeting last week. Others elected to the board from this area are Mrs. Edwin Henes, of Saline Township, and the. Rev. Leroy Cabbage,, of York Township. More than 300 attended the dinner meeting, at the chapter headquarters, in Ann Arbor. Youth Jailed On Reckless Driving Count A 21-year-old Dexter youth was sentenced to 10 days in jail by Justice of the Peace Jerome Lamb, Friday, after he pleaded guilty to charges of reckless driving and driving with an expired license. Richard W. Luckhardt was arrested by Saline police Thursday, after a chase from Monroe Street out into the country at speeds up to 90 miles per hour. Police said they clocked Luckhardt by radar at 55 miles per hour in a 25 mile zone inside the city,, and that after they chased his car beyond the city, he speeded up to 85 and 90 miles per hour, passed a farm tractor in a no-passing zone, whipped into a farm driveway — narrowly missing a child playing there — got out of his car, and hid in the barn. Much of the chase was over a loose gravel road, they said. Luckhardt was fined $103 and costs or 10 days on both charges, and was remanded to the County Jail upon failure to pay the fine. Three local youths, charged as minors in possession of intoxicants, are slated for appearance in JP Court Friday. Arrested Sunday, June 21, by state police of the Clinton post, they are Jerry Hugh McDonald, of Oklahoma City; David Carl Seeger, 8900 Fosdiek Rd.; and James Carl Marion, 8991 Marion Rd., who was also ticketed for speeding, 100 miles per hour in a 55 mile zone. He will work especially hi the fields of community health and safety, which include mental health and retardation, the national Teen-Age Road-E-O, a safe shooting program, and the uniform vehicle traffic laws program. In the near future, he will spend the week of July 12 in Tulsa, Okla., to attend various national meetings, and will be in Washington July 27-31, in Indianapolis, Ind., August 1-2, and later in Washington, Little Rock, Ark., Chicago, and Detroit. Michigan Jaycees also won first place, for the second consecutive year, for their state publication, "Michigander". More than 70 Michigan delegates took part in the campaign for Martin's election. He returned to Saline early Saturday morning. Three other Salinians also attended the Dallas convention: Mr. and Mrs. George Newton, and Dan Larson. Martin CITY ASSESSOR TO SPEAK The Kiwanis Club of Saline will hold a dinner meeting at 6:45 p.m. Monday, July 6, at Walker's Bakery. Robert Harrison, Saline city assessor, will be guest speaker. Arrangements for the program are being made by Hubert Beach. TEEN CLUB PLANS SLOPPY DAY DANCE The Saline Teen Club will hold a "Sloppy Day Dance" this Friday night at the Intermediate School from 7:30 to 11 pjn. MEHA Annexation Petition Filed As part of its plan to construct a retirement village for educators here, MEHA this week filed an annexation petition for 253.931 acres north of the city and adjacent to the High School property, which is inside the city limits. City Council is expected to act on the petition at the regular July 6 meeting; but the annexation must also be approved by Lodi and Pittsfield Township boards. MEHA has also signed and returned for city signatures a contract that was drawn up after a meeting of Council and the Association's representative, i n agreement that MEHA will pay the cost of extending sewer and water lines to their property and setting up a schedule of tap-in charges. Crash Fatal To Monroe County Youth A Monroe County youth was killed in Saline Township Saturday when his pickup truck collided with a car at an unmarked intersection. Robert M. Skiff, of London Township, was pronounced dead on arrival at Saline Community Hospital by an assistant Washtenaw County medical examiner. State Police said Skiff was crushed underneath his truck when it rolled over on. him in a ditch. The driver of the second car, June E. Dickens, 21, of Deerfield, was not injured. The accident occurred about 5 p.m. at the intersection of Maple and Hack roads, where the boundaries of Monroe, Lenawee and Washtenaw counties meet. Troopers said there were no stop signs or other traffic control devices at the intersection, and that high weeds and brush obscured vision for drivers coming in all directions. Skiff was driving west on Hack, troopers said, and Miss Dickens south on Maple. The speed of both vehicles was estimated at 40 miles an hour. Saline Board of Education this week announced the hiring of a new superintendent of schools, replacing Leo Jensen, who has retired. The newcomer, who expects to take up his duties about the first of August, is Harold J. Hintz, 50, superintendent of schools for eight years at Hanover, south of Jackson. He comes from a school system only a little smaller than Saline's, including a high school and two elementary schools, and embodying the primary requisites sought by the Saline board: the Hanover district is consolidated, and has bonded for and built two new schools during Hintz's time there. Before becoming superintendent, he was high school principal at Hanover for four years, and taught English and social studies for five years before that. He has a bachelor of education degree and master of arts in education, both from the University of Toledo. The Hanover system, which serves the villages of Hanover and Horton and surrounding area, employs 41 teachers for a school population of just under 1,000 students. The high school is accredited and — by athletic designation — class C. About 80 per cent of the residents work in Jackson, Albion and. Hillsdale, though some of them are part time farmers as well, Hintz said. About three years ago, the board of education there decided to drop agriculture and farm shop classes and instituted, instead, an industrial arts department. Mrs. Hintz — Martha - has a bachelor of science degree from the University of Michigan and, some years ago, work- e d as a medical technician. They have two sons, both at home, Pat, 18, who will be a sophomore at Jackson Junior College in September and intends to study medicine later; and Mike, 11, who will enter the 7th grade here in the fall. They are a sports-loving family. Mrs. Hintz' favorite is horseback riding; Pat was in football in High School; Hintz is a golfer and trout fisherman; and Mike is every kind of fisherman available. Hintz also studies electronics as a hobby. They are house-hunting in Saline this week but will not move until next month, although the new superintendent will attend the next meeting of the Saline Board of Education on Wednesday, July 8. In his visit here Monday, Hintz conferred with Board President Bess Tefft, Jensen, and High School Principal Howard Hill. He has also been interviewed by all members of the board. Said Mrs. Tefft today: "We are all very pleased to find a person with his experience and who is looking forward to coming here. I think he will move into our system easily and with understanding." A reception at which the public can meet Hintz and his family will be scheduled later in the summer, she said. GOODWILL PICK-UP SET A Goodwill Industries truck will visit Saline on Tuesday, July 7. For pick-up, call 429- 9828. Blaze Levels Barn, Shed; Fireman Hurt A Saline Township barn and tool shed were leveled by flames Friday, and a silo was destroyed but left standing, in a fire so hot that a fireman was burned when he moved too close to it. No complete damage estimate i s available yet, the owners said. Also destroyed was considerable equipment owned by a neighboring farmer and stored in the tool shed. The buildings were owned by Mr. and Mrs. Eckhardt Schroen, of 11730 Maple Rd., but the farm is worked by Roy Stoddard, whose stored equipment and materials included a chop- per head, cultivator tractor, garden tools, grain drill, wagon rack, 350 bales of straw, and other items. Although the silo did not collapse, it was left "just a shell", burned through in many places and unrepairable, the owners said. The fire was discovered by a workman who was shingling the barn roof; it grew hot under his feet, he said, and when he lifted several shingles he found a mass of flame underneath. The fire was reported by Mrs. James Croy, who lives at the Stoddard farm and who glanced across the field to see one entire wall of the barn in flames.. The barn had already collapsed before firemen arrived^, she said. Fireman Gordon Dunham, of 289 W. Bennett, suffered burns along one arm as he ran between the blazing piles of wreckage from the barn and garage; he was given first aid at the scene. Firemen remained on the scene for more than two hours to control the flames to prevent their spread to the house or across a wheat field, though a garage was slightly damaged. CASE DISMISSED A charge' against William Starling, -128 E. Michigan Ave., of driving through a stop sign, was dismissed by Justice of the Peace Jerome Lamb this week. The action was taken on motion of Roderick Janich, signer of the citizen's complaint which led to Starling's arrest. Eire Chief Harold Armbruster keeps watch on smoldering remains of a barn (between Armbruster and the silo) and shed at the Eckhardt Schroen residence, to be sure that gosty, scorching hot winds don't carry sparks onto nearby buildings and wheat fields. Although the silo remained standing, it was damaged beyond repair; equipment stored in the barn and shed was also lost.

Free electronics recycling at Staples
Posted Apr 17, 2012 by Janine Dorsey
Updated Apr 17, 2012 at 12:27 PM
HP and Staples are teaming up to offer free electronics recycling for all brands of office technology at Staples stores nationwide.
Both consumers and small businesses can responsibly recycle their electronics every day at Staples locations, regardless of where the devices were purchased.
These items should not be placed in household garbage and are usually only collected a few times a year in city-wide collection programs or at specific collection centers.
The Staples technology recycling program accepts all brands of the following electronics for free :
• Desktop PCs, laptops, netbooks, tablet PCs, external hard drives and small servers
• Computer monitors
• Printers, desktop copiers, faxes and all-in-one devices
• Mice, keyboards, modems/routers networking and PC speakers
• Shredders, streaming devices, phones and Universal Power Supply (UPS battery backup)
• Mobile phones, GPS devices, MP3 players, digital camcorders and digital cameras
Customers can drop off their technology for recycling at the service desk of their local Staples store. Staples will collect the devices and consolidate them at its distribution centers. A certified e-stewards and an R2 recycler will then arrange to have the materials transported to its processing centers.
Additional information is available at HP's and Staples websites.

Citizenship Coursework
The first 200 words of this essay...
My Group
For my citizenship coursework, I will be working with Muhammad Hayyat Khan and Ahmed Mamman because all three of us have been good friends for a long time. In addition, we get on together extremely well and never have problems deciding things between us. Both of my colleagues have had very good previous academic years and therefore together we should be able to come up with some really high-quality ideas of what possible things we can do for our coursework. I know by working with my two friends that I will surely decide on a good coursework project to do. Another advantage point is that we meet quite often outside of school so doing the coursework out of school would not be much of a problem. Advantages for working together include that we equally share the responsibility and each contribute to the work so it is not too hard. Furthermore if we have three people we will get three different ideas instead of one this also proves as a very big advantage as will be able to choose from a variety and pick the one idea which suits us the best. Also on the day of the activity,

The Metropolitan Transportation Authority is planning to keep the tunnel -- known as the Dey Street Concourse -- closed until One World Trade Center and Four World Trade Center open for business.
The $200 million walkway will offer riders a free transfer between Cortlandt Street and the Fulton Center.
Transit officials initially said it would be open next month, but will now likely remain blocked off until at least 2015.
The agency says it would be too expensive to maintain the passage until the buildings open because only a handful of riders will use it.

Why would they move? Just look at the National Basketball Association and how players can seemingly get coaches hired and fired seemingly at a moment's notice. The powers-that-be deny this but they almost have to. In the pros, you have such things as the salary cap and such that makes it more difficult to build a great team year after year, whereas in college, these guys can get almost anyone they really want and they don't have to worry about resources.

US Social forum: Support the call of Haiti's grassroots
GIVEN our debt to Haiti whose 1804 revolution led the way for the abolition of slavery in the Americas, defeating Napoleon's Army, the most powerful of its day, and establishing the first Black republic; and
GIVEN that after the revolution Haiti gave refuge to Simon Bolivar, the liberator of Latin America, and gave him ships and fighters, and that Haiti intercepted slave ships and freed their human cargo; and
GIVEN that the women of Haiti have waged a long struggle to exercise their political rights which they began to win with the election of President Jean-Bertrand Aristide who brought together and mobilized the Haitian people, elected first in 1990 by at least 60%, elected again in 2001 by 92%, both times removed by US-led coups supported by France and Canada; and
GIVEN that the colonial powers have never forgiven Haiti for its revolution, its revolutionary tradition and its example to all exploited people everywhere; and
GIVEN that these colonial powers have always invaded, occupied, taxed, exploited and supported dictatorships against them; and
GIVEN that France forced Haiti to pay reparations for the loss of "their" slaves and for the revolution itself which, together with US economic embargos and the destruction of Haiti's agriculture, helped to make Haiti the most impoverished country in the Western Hemisphere; and
GIVEN that Haiti has more NGO's per square mile than any other country in the world;
GIVEN that since 2004 Haiti has suffered a brutal occupation by the United Nations forces, which have murdered many grassroots people struggling for decent wages, human rights and a better life for their children; and
GIVEN the tragic destruction first by hurricane and then by the most devastating earthquake in human history and the resulting death and disabling of hundreds of thousands and displacement of three million people, followed by the US militarization of aid and the withholding by most agencies of the help to Haiti that the whole world paid for; despite this, the determination and self-organization of Haitians for survival while deprived of their leader Jean-Bertrand Aristide; and
GIVEN that the multi-nationals are now planning to expand sweatshops at slave wages and to exploit Haiti's natural wealth under the guise of providing aid in this crisis; and
GIVEN that the women of Haiti have asked those "who support the popular movement of Haiti" to support their call "for the return of former President Jean-Bertrand Aristide to Haiti" to lead the Haitian movement for people's reconstruction and development, and have issued a petition for this demand which over 20,000 Haitian women have already signed;
WE RESOLVE to endorse, circulate and collect signatures for this grassroots women's petition for the return of the political leader of the Haitian movement; and
WE DEMAND with the Haitian grassroots an end to the occupation of Haiti.

Déclarations des Candidats / Candidate Statements - FVC National Council Election 2012
Want to know more? Candidates' responses to questions submitted by FVC supporters can be found here. |
Ryan Campbell
My name is Ryan Campbell, and I'm running to be one of your National Councillors. I first became engaged in issues around electoral reform as an engineering student at the University of Toronto, where I saw first hand the strengths and weaknesses of the variety of electoral systems then in use for student elections. I've served on the boards of similarly sized non profits such as the University of Toronto and the Canadian Federation of Engineering Students, and can bring that experience to bear here as well. I'm hugely passionate about electoral reform and would love the chance to apply that enthusiasm in a bigger way with Fair Vote Canada. Thank you.
Mon nom est Ryan Campbell, et je suis candidat pour le Conseil national. Pendant mes études en génie à l'Université de Toronto j'ai eu l'occasion de participer dans plusieurs élections, dont la majorité n'utilisait pas un système électoraux équitable. C'est là d'où viens ma passion pour la représentation équitable. Anciennement j'étais membre des conseils d'administration de l'Université de Toronto et de la Fédération canadienne d'étudiants et étudiantes en génie, et j'aimerais bien avoir cette chance d'appliquer mes expériences ici. Je suis passionné sur le sujet de la représentation équitable, et j'apprécierais beaucoup votre support. Merci.
Gary Dale
My family is from New Brunswick but I grew up in British Columbia before moving to Toronto.
Although I was a student activist, my serious campaigning began in the early 1990s within the trade union movement. I was heavily involved in the fightback against the Rae government's Social Contract, including founding the very successful FaxLeft fax network. This network was extensively used during the Ontario Days of Action against the Harris government before shutting down in 1999.
I have been a candidate in federal and provincial elections and have helped run many other campaigns. I run online discussion groups at the provincial, regional and riding level for the Ontario NDP and for a national faith-based organization. I have also been a board member for several national and local groups.
I joined Fair Vote Canada in 2003 and was active in the 2007 Ontario referendum. I was on the Toronto Chapter board from 2008 until 2010. I worked on a number of chapter activities and participated in Better Ballots, the successful Toronto and the (so far) less successful Ontario municipal campaign finance reform initiatives. I was on the national council in 2010/2011.
I have been a passionate voice against phoney reforms such as Alternative Vote and misguided campaigns such as negative voting and "electoral cooperation".
I'm also an active letter writer and have built a following with my frequently published letters in several Canadian newspapers.
I am very good at analysing issues and formulating strategy and tactics for successful campaigns. We're not going to win electoral reform easily but with the right approach we will be successful.
You can find more details about my activities at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gary_Dale and on my blog at garydale.wordpress.com.
Joyce Hall
I have been a member of Fair Vote Canada for nine years and have served on the Toronto executive for three years. I headed the campaign during the Ontario Referendum for the riding of Grey-Bruce-Owen Sound, working with others to organize information tables and events around the county, communicate with media and link with local political groups and party candidates. Having participated at the local level, I would now like to widen my perspective by working at the national level. I would be bringing to FVC National Council concerns about gender equality and good governance and professional experience in public relations and community college education. Some particular goals: to expand membership, create a more dynamic and responsive organization, and see Fair Vote Canada's web of links to other organizations expanded.
June Macdonald
I am running for national council because I feel that advocating for proportional representation is one of the most worthwhile activities to be involved with both for personal fulfillment and for helping contribute to a better democracy for our fellow Canadians.
Over the past three years, in addition to participating on council, I have been active in my local chapter, participating in Women for Fair Voting and coordinating the letter writers' media response group.
My background as a college educator has given me an understanding of, and some ability in, communicating complex topics. After I became interested in using new media in education, I completed a doctorate with voting system reform as the focus. I have been able to use some of these skills in the national and chapter online environments.
Proportional representation is not a panacea for all our political problems but it still remains our best chance to help repair our democracy and better represent Canadians. A healthy democracy requires all our diverse voices being heard, at all levels of government.
Communicating the values of PR to Canadians has become somewhat easier because more people are now aware of the problems with our winner-take-all system. However, with that success have come new challenges and an urgent push for change as our democratic deficit intensifies. Some advocate another winner-take-all system; however, this has the potential to give us even more distortion and less representation than our present system.
So although we have been successful in casting doubt on our current system, our challenge now lies in ensuring that the substitute system gives proportional representation to our policy and demographic preferences. This is a critical time for reform. I would like the privilege of continuing to work on this issue on national council.
Cecil Makowski
I have devoted my entire adult life to advocating on behalf of working people in Canada and for such causes that would see our Canadian system and society make progressive advancements. I began my thirty year career in the labour movement in Thunder Bay as the President of a 2000 member local union and President of the District Labour Council. Prior to my retirement in 2008 I served for a decade as the senior officer in Ontario for 40,000 members of the Communications, Energy and Paperworkers Union and as a Vice President of the Ontario Federation of Labour. As a member of the Executive Boards of both the CEP and the OFL, I successfully advocated for support for the principle and goal of electoral reform as embodied by proportional representation and specifically for financial support of Fair Vote Canada.
I was also pleased to have had the opportunity to work on a committee of the Ontario New Democratic Party which successfully recommended to the party's convention the adoption of proportional representation as an official policy of the party.
My appetite for active involvement was renewed in 2011 following the most recent Federal election, when it became clearer than ever that our parliament showed a majority situation but it did not reflect the voting intentions of those Canadians who cast a ballot. As a result, in the fall of last year I contacted Fair Vote Canada to assist in establishing a Niagara chapter, where I reside. It continues to be my goal to accomplish its creation.
I welcome the challenge of furthering my involvement by running for election to the national board of directors. I thank the nominating committee for having considered me for this important post, and I respectfully request the support of the FVC members in the upcoming election.
J'ai consacré ma vie adulte entière à la représentation des travailleurs canadiens et à servir de telles autres causes qui ont fait progresser notre société. J'ai commencé ma carrière dans le mouvement syndical à Thunder Bay ayant été élu président d'une section locale de 2.000 membres et, plus tard, à titre de président du Conseil du travail de la région. Pendant la dizaine d'années qui ont précédées ma retraite en 2008, j'ai servi le Syndicat canadien des communications, de l'énergie et du papier en tant que dirigeant de la Région de l'Ontario qui comprenait au-delà de 40.000 adhérents. Pendant cette période, j'ai aussi siégé au Conseil exécutif de la Fédération du travail de l'Ontario à titre de vice président. En tant que membre des conseils exécutifs du SCEP et de la FTO, j'ai réussit à faire adopter des propositions d'appui pour les principes et objectifs de Représentation Équitable au Canada ainsi que des résolutions de support financier pour les activités de REC.
Je suis également heureux d'avoir œuvré comme membre d'un comité au sein du Nouveau Parti Démocratique de l'Ontario qui a réussit à faire adopter le principe de la représentation proportionnelle comme politique officielle du parti lors d'un de ses congrès.
Mon désir de m'impliquer davantage dans le travail de REC fut renouvelé récemment lorsque, peu après l'élection fédérale de l'année dernière, j'ai constaté que rarement avons-nous vu un exemple si frappant d'un gouvernement majoritaire élu sans s'avoir mérité l'appui de la majorité des électeurs. En conséquence, l'automne dernier, j'ai contacté Représentation Équitable au Canada pour aider à établir un chapitre dans la région du Niagara où je réside. C'est toujours mon objectif d'établir un tel chapitre et j'ai déjà amorcé une campagne à cet égard.
J'ai bien hâte de relever le défi au plan national et, à cette fin, j'offre ma candidature dans les élections prochaines au conseil national de REC. Je remercie le comité de nomination de m'avoir considéré pour ce poste important et c'est avec respect que je demande l'appui des membres de REC lors de ces élections.
Justin O'Donnell
In the seven years I have belonged to Fair Vote Canada, I participated in the 2007 referendum, helping to organize local debates in the Niagara Region on PR. I had the privilege of serving as the Fair Vote Ontario Treasurer from 2008-09. I have also acted as an advocate for PR during my time as a member of both the Conservative Party of Canada and the Ontario Progressive Conservative Party. Presently, due to contractual obligations, I am a political independent with no affiliations with any federal or political party.
If elected to National Council, there are three areas I wish to concentrate on.
1. Establish a caucus within FVC for Independent and non-partisan voters. Voters that are not aligned with a political party have special needs that any system of PR adopted must address. Provisions need to be made to allow for independent candidates to stand for election under a PR system.
2. Work to increase the number of local chapters, specifically in Ontario. This is a grassroots organization, and best way for FVC to obtain its goals is to have strong, active chapters at the local levels that can communicate with and educate the voters at the local level.
3. Work to establish a Speaker's Bureau for FVC. FVC will only be as effective the spokesman that FVC have to communicate its message. It is imperative that we have presenters that are both knowledgeable on the issue and are effective communicators that can deal with the media and explain concept of PR in such a way that the average layman can easily understand it.
Thank you for your consideration, and good luck to all my fellow candidates.
Michael Polanyi
If elected, I will bring three main qualities to Fair Vote Canada: experience organizing and mobilizing people on political issues; the ability to strategically influence government policy; and a solid knowledge of the theory and practice of democratic systems.
Over the past twenty-five years, I have led numerous projects and campaigns to mobilize diverse groups – students, youth, new immigrants, low-income families, injured workers - on issues that concern them. I understand both the ethical importance – and positive social impact – of increasing the political voice of people who are typically excluded from government decision-making.
My campaign successes over the years range from leading a boycott of South African goods at McMaster University, improving access to municipal recreation programs by low-income youth in Etobicoke, and supporting church-based campaigns to get provincial governments to adopt poverty reduction strategies.
My recent work as a policy researcher with the Ontario New Democratic Party caucus has given me an on-the-ground understanding of the limitations of our current electoral system, and a good sense of how to effectively influence political party and government policy to improve it.
Finally, I have a solid knowledge of the theory and practice of democracy, governance and electoral systems, having completed a doctorate at York University in 2000 focused on citizen engagement.
I have solid contacts and connections with social change leaders in unions, churches, NGOs, universities and governments across Canada.
I live in Toronto, with my spouse Joanne. We have two teenage sons.
I have excellent French language skills, and have worked with citizens and groups in all provinces and territories of Canada.
I hope very much to have the opportunity to bring my passion, experience, and knowledge to Fair Vote Canada's National Council.
Please lend me your support!
Si je suis élu, voici les trois points forts que j'apporterai à Représentation équitable au Canada: expérience en ce qui concerne l'organisation et la mobilisation des gens sur des questions politiques, la capacité d'influencer stratégiquement la politique du gouvernement, et une solide connaissance de la théorie et de la pratique des systèmes démocratiques.
Au cours des dernières vingt-cinq années, j'ai dirigé de nombreux projets et des campagnes pour mobiliser divers groupes - étudiants, jeunes, nouveaux immigrants, familles à faible revenu, travailleurs accidentés - sur les questions qui les concernent. Je comprends à la fois l'importance éthique - et l' impact social positif - d'accroitre la représentation politique de ceux qui sont généralement exclus des prises de décisions gouvernementales. Voici quelques exemples de mes campagnes à succès: établissement d'un boycott des produits sud-africains à l'Université McMaster, l'amélioration de l'accès aux programmes de loisirs municipaux pour les jeunes à faible revenu à Etobicoke, et soutien des campagnes de l'église ayant pour but d'amener les gouvernements provinciaux à adopter des stratégies de réduction de la pauvreté.
Ma mission récente en tant que chercheur sur les politiques au sein du caucus du Parti néo-démocrate Ontarien m'a permis de voir sur le terrain les limites de notre système électoral actuel et m'a permis de comprendre comment influencer efficacement les partis politiques ainsi que les politiques gouvernementales pour l'améliorer. Enfin, mon doctorat sur l'engagement des citoyen obtenu en 2000 à l'université York m'a donné une solide connaissance théorique et pratique du fonctionnement démocratique, de la gouvernance et des systèmes électoraux. J'ai des contacts solides et des liens avec les leaders dans le domaine du changement, au sein des syndicats, des églises, des ONG, des universités ainsi que des gouvernements partout au Canada.
Je vis à Toronto, avec ma conjointe Joanne. Nous avons deux adolescents.
J'ai d'excellentes compétences linguistiques en français, et j'ai travaillé avec des citoyens et des groupes dans toutes les provinces et territoires du Canada.
J'espère pouvoir faire bénéficier Représentation équitable au Canada de ma passion, de mon expérience ainsi que de mes connaissances en la matière.
J'espère pouvoir compter sur votre soutien!
Rick Sawa
I am a semi-retired, long time educator with a PhD in educational administration. Much of my work has been with indigenous populations as I have worked extensively with Aboriginal people and had a 3 year stint in Zimbabwe shortly after its independence. In addition to being on the National Board of The Council of Canadians, I have been the chair of the Prince Albert chapter since 1999, and am on the board of the Saskatchewan Office of the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives. Also, I am on the Steering Committee for Food Secure Canada, past co-chair and now a member of the coordinating committee of Food Secure Saskatchewan, chair of Prince Albert and Area Food Coalition, board member and treasurer of Green Energy Project—Saskatchewan, and advisory board member of Next Up. I was co-editor of Beyond Factory Farming based on the proceedings of a conference I organized and editor of Assessing Students' Ways of Knowing also based on a conference I organized.
My support for Fair Vote Canada comes from recognition that majority Canadian values on priority issues are consistently undermined by a deeply flawed electoral system. We are falsely represented at both the provincial and federal level in a system where most votes don't really count. I have served on the executive of the Fair Vote Canada Saskatchewan chapter since its formation and recently assumed the role of interim co-chair. I understand the need for public education and awareness as a prerequisite to changing the system, and I'm prepared to work at that as an extension of my work with the Council of Canadians. While active politically on many issues facing the community I have no primary commitment to a political party. I'm in a position to advocate with political representatives from across the spectrum at both the federal and provincial level.
Josh Smee
My name is Josh Smee, and I would love a chance to bring my perspective to the National Council.
While it has been some time since I've been actively involved in the electoral reform movement, I have always kept close track of it, and relish the chance to become more active. During the 2007 referendum in Ontario, my apartment was wallpapered with riding maps as I helped co-ordinate the Waterloo canvassers for MMP. Often times, I'd make the rookie mistake and get caught up at the door in discussion – but what really struck me is how many people agreed with what's always been at the heart of my belief in electoral reform: that it just makes sense.
Today, I make my home in St. John's, Newfoundland. I make my living at the Community Sector Council NL doing capacity building and policy work for nonprofits across the province, and I serve on the executive of Happy City St. John's, a grassroots organization that's working hard to build a participatory process for municipal politics in the city. Aside from my governance role with Happy City, I also served on the boards of the Laurier Students Public Interest Research Group (LSPIRG) and the WLU students' union during my time there.
I would bring a number of things to the National Council. Governance and strategic-planning experience; familiarity with policy; experience working with colleagues in government, and the perspective of a young person connected to many other passionate young people doing amazing work. I would very much appreciate the chance to contribute time and ideas to such an incredible organization.
Nick Van der Graaf
My name is Nick Van der Graaf, and I am running for a seat on Fair Vote Canada National Council. I served in this capacity once before, in 2002 - 2003. I am a writer and editor in my professional life, and have covered Canadian politics since the 1980s. I have been something of a progressive activist for 25+ years, most notably in the women's movement. In addition I have been active in democratic reform and civic engagement issues for most of the last 10 years. I currently sit on the board of the Civics Education Network (CEN), and have organized several Democracy Cafés for the Toronto chapter of Canadians Advocating Political Participation (CAPP). What I hope to bring to Council is openness to working with other stakeholders in Canadian democracy, and a strong desire to help raise FVC's public profile. I have known some of the senior FVC activists for some time now and can work effectively with them. This is an exciting time to be involved with the issue of electoral reform, and I am keen to be part of the team.
Kirk Werklund
I have been a member of Fair Vote Canada for over two years. In that time, I've restarted the Calgary chapter and helped create the Lethbridge chapter.
I have also been involved with various organizations for over five years. I have worked
with everything from service organizations to membership based special interest groups.
I have also taken leadership training and keep myself up to date with current practices
for business, finance, management and marketing.
I also believe that my profession in Information Technology (IT) as a web-application
developer and programmer will be an asset to the Fair Vote board, as I can give
consultation and support for technical matters such as online strategies and
I also live in the west and can give a different perspective. I have talked with other Fair
Vote members who have expressed a need for understanding the challenges in Alberta,
and I believe I can give the most accurate description of the cultural and political state.
I may not be able to dedicate as much time to Fair Vote as other candidates, but I believe
I can make up for it in experience and skill.
If I am elected, I believe I will succeed in putting Proportional Representation and Fair
Voting practices in the public eye.

Mathematica Notebook for This Page.
Studied by Huygens in 1673.
Evolute is a method of deriving a new curve based on a given curve. It is the locus of the centers of tangent circles of the given curve.
Evolute of a ellipse.
Tangent Circle in Motion evoluteEllipse.gsp
Evolute of a curve can also be defined as the envelope of its normal.
Given a curve in parametric form {x[t], y[t]}, its evolute is
{x + (y'*(x'^2 + y'^2)) / ( y'*x'' - x'*y''), y + (x'*(x'^2 + y'^2)) / (-(y'*x'') + x'*y'')}
The trailing [t] is ommited for easy reading.
Theorem: The locus of Cusps of a curve C's parallel curves is the evolute of C. This is a alternative definition of evolute. See the Parallel page.
If curve A is the involute of curve B, then curve B is the evolute of curve A. The converse is true locally, that is: If curve B is the evolute of curve A, then any part of curve A is the involute of some parts of B.

Every day, 1.3 million people in India are forced to clean human excrement with their bare hands in a practice known as manual scavenging.
On June 17, 2011, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh of India, in a moment of historical precedent, called manual scavenging "one of the darkest blots on [India's] development process" and asked all State Ministers in the country to pledge to eliminate this "abominable practice" from every corner of India.
We as global citizens unanimously support the complete abolition of manual scavenging in India. By signing this petition, you agree that this horrific form of slavery must stop!
