Publix refuses to negotiate with farmworker coalition
Joshua Lee Holton
WMNF Drive-Time News Monday | Listen to this entire show:
Tomato pickers are still lobbying for better wages for farm workers in operations they call modern-day slavery. Last Saturday Tampa residents including University of South Florida students and people of faith protested in front of a Publix supermarket because it has not agreed to work with Florida tomato pickers to end a range of alleged exploitations in its supply chain.
What do we want? Justice! When do we want it? Now! What do we want? Justice! When do we want it? Now!
A dozen protesters shouted slogans from the sidewalk off Nebraska Avenue. They chanted phrases like, âPublix, shame on you; farm workers are people, too.â The workers are paid about 50 cents for each 32-pound bucket of tomatoes. Workers say they would have to pick 2.5 tons of tomatoes each day to earn the equivalent of Florida minimum wage for a 10-hour workday. Workers say that with a one-cent increase, they could make as much as 82 cents a bucket, almost doubling their wages.
Heather Vega is an organizer for the Coalition of Immokalee Workers Tampa Campaign for Fair Food.
And thatâs significant, since the wages have not changed since 1978.
The coalition was started in the early 1990s by farm workers who wanted to fight for fair wages after tomato pickers were physically abused by employers, given sub-poverty wages, and subjected to what the workers call modern day slavery. The Campaign for Fair Food was successful in getting such corporations as McDonaldâs, Burger King, Subway, Bon Apetit, Yum brands, Taco Bell, and Whole Foods to reach agreements with the coalition.
The six corporations that have reached agreements with the coalitionâwell, this for sure: Thereâs going to be verification; thereâs going to be a monitoring system; thereâs going to be transparency to ensure the money does get to the workers, as long as they have member growers that will pass the money along. And this is changing; there are already three Florida tomato growers that are passing along the penny, and we hope for more. But the way for this to really happen is through direct binding agreements with the Coalition of Immokalee Workers.
The negotiations have resulted in a penny-per-pound increase with those six corporations. Vega says workers will be able to participate in a social responsibility program. Now, the coalition is reaching out to other grocery stores.
Because the four largest fast-food corporations in the world have reached the agreement, now we have more of a focus on the grocery stores, and also on the food service providers. So right now the campaign is calling on Aramark, a large food service provider, Sodexo, and Kroger Company. But right here in Florida, weâre really pushing hard for Publix, given that their headquarters are in Lakeland.
In the past, The Florida Tomato Growers Exchange would have fined exchange members $100,000 for passing a penny-per-pound wage increase for workers. Recently, it reversed that policy. Vega doesnât approve of the new policy, because the new program doesnât include the same worker participation opportunity as with the deals the coalition has worked out on its own.
They are not demanding; they are not saying that they are going to monitor or verify, and ensure that this happens. But rather they are saying: They allow it. So this does not ensure, guarantee, that the penny will be passed along. And this is not an initiative that they just took from the kindness of their heart. This is in response to the coalition, to the CIWâs, agreements. Just because they say they are going to allow to pass the penny along does not guarantee that the money will actually get to the workers.
Some growers have agreed to work with the worker coalition. Protester Kim Kavazanjian says this gives her optimism about the future for tomato pickers.
East Coast Growersâitâs the third-largest tomoato growersâ organizationâhas decided to work with McDonaldâs, Subway, Taco Bell, Subway, all the other companies that have joined the CIW, to actually pass the penny per pound, and to put in the code of conduct. So thatâs very exciting.
During the protest the store manager for the Publix on Nebraska Avenue agreed to accept information from farm worker advocates. But a spokesperson for the corporate office of Publix, Shannon Patten, says the grocery chain will continue to pay market price for tomatoes, and will not get involved in disputes between farm workers and suppliers.
As far as tomatoes, I mean, Publix pays fair market value for the tomatoes. We donât determine what that price should be; we pay the market value for the tomatoes. But itâs not something that we are involved in; itâs not something that weâre going to get involved in. We view this as a labor dispute, and we donât get involved in those.
Patten claims that Publix does not support some growers that exploit workers.
We currently do not do business with Six Lâs or Pacific Tomatoes. We have used those two suppliers periodically in the past, but we currently do not do business with them. I donât work in the produce side of the business, but I can tell you that we are getting our tomatoes from other sources.
Next month, the farm worker coalition plans to march from Tampa to Lakeland to protest Publixâs policies further. Kim Kavazanjian expects a high turnout.
Weâre expecting about 2,000 people to come to the march over the three days. Itâll start in Tampa April 16, and end in Lakeland, in Munn Park, on April 18. And weâre hoping that this will bring the message to Publix that plenty of consumers do really care about this issue.
And because Publix made over 24 billion dollars in revenue last year, the coalition insists that the grocery store can use its purchasing power to make wiser and more ethical choices when buying produce. The workersâ slogan says that there can be âno fair market price for slavery.â

Scientists on what the ENCODE junk DNA study really said
Here are more scientific takes on the "junk DNA" ENCODE study that has gotten so much media hype, along with my own comments. This post covers a lot of ground, so I've added subheds for the various topics to make it easier reading.
From the blog Finch and Pea :
" ENCODE is significant because they've provided a very useful data set, and not because they've a) shown that non-coding DNA is important (we knew that), or b) most of the genome has phenotypically important regulatory function (it does not), or c) that most of the genome is evolutionarily conserved (not true either). What they have shown is that much of the genome is covered by introns, and it is hard to find biochemically inert DNA, which those of us who've tried to generate random, 'neutral' DNA sequences (for say, spacers in synthetic promoter experiments) will agree with."
Over at Cryptogenomicon, Sean Eddy , a Howard Hughes Medical Institute computational biologist, writes that a lot of the media coverage is inaccurate and misleading, including that of the New York Times .
"ENCODE has assigned a 'biochemical function' to 80 percent of the genome. The newspapers add, 'therefore it's not junk', but that's a critically incorrect logical leap. It presumes that junk DNA doesn't have a 'biochemical function' in the sense that ENCODE chose to operationally define 'function'. . . But as far as questions of 'junk DNA' are concerned, ENCODE's definition isn't relevant at all. The 'junk DNA' question is about how much DNA has essentially no direct impact on the organism's phenotype – roughly, what DNA could I remove (if I had the technology) and still get the same organism. . . "
However, Gina Kolata of the New York Times explicitly equated "functional" with "needed."
"As scientists delved into the 'junk' — parts of the DNA that are not actual genes containing instructions for proteins — they discovered a complex system that controls genes," Kolata's article stated. "At least 80 percent of this DNA is active and needed."
That inference is unsupported by the study, Eddy wrote:
"Thought experiment: if you made a piece of junk for yourself — a completely random DNA sequence! — and dropped it into the middle of a human gene, what would happen to it? It would be transcribed, because the transcription apparatus for that gene would rip right through your junk DNA. ENCODE would call the RNA transcript of your random DNA junk 'functional', by their technical definition."
Moreover, even truly "junk DNA" such as invading transposons can be reused by evolution to create new adaptations, Eddy wrote.
"Without 'noise' — without a background of specific but nonfunctional transcription, binding, and marking — evolution would have less traction, less de novo material to grab hold of and refine and select, to make it more and more useful. Genomes are made of repurposed sequence, borrowed from whatever happened to be there, including the 'junk DNA' of invading transposons."
Out of date
While finding function in "junk DNA" may be new to the mass media, it's old news to scientists. Here's a statement from a press release on a study in the Oct. 17, 2008 issue of PLoS Genetics:

Local cancer treatment in 3rd place for shot at $250,000
Only one more spot to go.
The John Kanzius' Cancer Research Foundation's shot at $250,000 from the Pepsi Refresh Project has moved from 17th place to 3rd place in the last two weeks. The project is now ranked third, and since the top two projects competing for the money will receive a grant, it is only one place away from winning.
Any member of the public can vote every day between now and April 30. Members of the public can vote for up to 10 projects per day among the hundreds competing for various grant sizes.
To vote for the treatment, visit http://pep.si/aFkjQ8. Click "Vote for this idea," and a window will pop up asking if you would like to log in using your Facebook account or create an account on the Pepsi Refresh Project Web site.
There have been some issues reported with the site's log-in procedure not working properly. Those having trouble have just tried to login several times in a row and eventually the site will respond and allow them to vote.
Posted earlier:
It's a whole new kind of Pepsi Challenge.
Researchers advancing the promising cancer treatment invented on Sanibel Island by the late John Kanzius are asking for your vote.
Under the goodwill-motivated Pepsi Refresh Project, the foundation supporting the research is seeking $250,000. To get the funding, members of the public must go to the project's Web site and cast a vote for the research every day. The top two projects based on the votes will receive the funding.
"We were 14th this morning and I screamed," said Mark Neidig, executive director of the Kanzius Cancer Research Foundation. "I said 'Oh my God. This is awesome.' We went from 17th to 14th. This is so good news."
Neidig's Friday afternoon statement noted the 24-hour boost in the project's ranking was supported by an e-mail blast sent out by the foundation, and a Daily News Web post picked up and circulated by the Collier County Economic Development Council. By late Friday, the project was ranked 12th.
The bid for the Pepsi Refresh Project money is the most recent effort to continue funding for the work, which has received some significant successes in recent months. As the work is funded entirely through donations and grants to protect it from venture capitalists, it depends on public support. The more money that is raised, the quicker the treatment gets to clinical trials, researchers on the project have said. Late stage trials are expected to take place in Fort Myers.
Two additional papers concerning the work were published in peer-reviewed scientific journals in 2009 and three more are awaiting publication in 2010. Researchers also received millions of dollars in funding in a nod of support from the National Cancer Institute, and the work appears to have also gotten a nod from President Barack Obama in his state of the union address.
"We need to encourage American innovation. Last year, we made the largest investment in basic research funding in history," Obama said in the address. "An investment that could lead to ... a treatment that kills cancer cells but leaves healthy ones untouched."
Kanzius, a radio entrepreneur and Erie, Pa., native, invented the treatment after he saw the damage cancer caused to young leukemia patients in the wards of the world-renowned M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, where research into the treatment is now being led.
He decided there had to be a better way. Kanzius knew the radio waves he worked with for decades would pass through a body harmlessly, but would heat any metal in their path. So, he developed a radio field capable of heating metal.
Kanzius' doctor, Steven Curley, the lead researcher for the treatment, had another patient: Richard Smalley, who had won a Nobel Prize for his work with non-toxic, microscopic pieces of metal known as nanoparticles.
Smalley reportedly encouraged Curley to continue work with Kanzius' device shortly before his death. Curley had already gotten a different radiofrequency cancer treatment through the Food and Drug Administration approval process. Everything came together perfectly, and patents for Kanzius' device were later approved.
It works like this: Miniscule pieces of metal known as nanoparticles are attached to disease-targeting antibodies, which are injected in patients and seek out cancer cells. The body is then exposed to the radiowave field. The field heats the nanoparticles and kills the cancer, sparing surrounding cells.
Researchers have already proven the treatment in specimen dishes, with success in animals expected to be reported soon. Though dozens of cancer specimens and targeting molecules are being examined in the research, the main focus has been with two of the deadliest strains, liver and pancreatic cancer.
A National Cancer Institute Grant awarded in October 2009 will lead to first year funding of $2.4 million for the project, with $11.6 million over a five-year period. The grant was part of several awarded to cancer institutes across the country.
"By bringing a fresh set of eyes to the study of cancer, these new centers have great potential to advance, and sometimes challenge, accepted theories about cancer and its supportive microenvironment," said NCI Director Dr. John E. Niederhuber in a release.
Though Neidig said an additional $4 million will be needed to get the treatment to clinical trials, with as much as $100 million for the trials themselves, excitement is already building in Washington as work on a human-sized version of the radiofrequency device is developed.
"They are coming to me and saying, 'when are you bringing this thing to us, we want to see it,'" Neidig said FDA officials have asked. "They're coming to us."

Re: Sanyo customer support
The question was asking if it was normal for the LiIon type batteries to feel warmer during extended usage than the old-type (NiHy)cellphone batteries. It was simple and fairly general question but their response said to contact Sprint because Sanyo doesn't handle warranty services on their phones. My email never suggested that the phones were defective or that I was making a warranty claim, only that was new to LiIon batteries and unsure if what I was experiencing was normal.

Schuster's Farm 2014 Corn Maze
Badger Honor Flight
So, two UW alumni have this huge cornfield and every year they cut a design in it. Some years the carving has been done to shine a light on a charity (Big Brothers, Big Sisters 2004; Gilda's Club 2008; US Transplant Games 2010; Ronald McDonald House 2011 and 12; ) and other years it has been to celebrate Bucky's national accomplishments (Bucky Owns College Hockey 2006; Multi-sports National Titles 2007). Last year it welcomed Coach Anderson to Madison! This year the corn maze is in tribute to the Badger Honor Flight.
Come and explore the maze to help raise money for Badger Honor Flight. The fun you have (and we are sure it will be!) will also help donate to a great cause. So, come get lost with us!
About the maze experience …
The corn maze offers adventure by day or night. If you're coming at night, be sure to grab your flashlight–It's darker out here in the country!
So what exactly does one do to get through a corn maze??? Corn maze games, of course!!! For the fun of all and preservation of the maze, we enforce, through the use of a very special corn cop unit, these "corn maze rules".

Bukoba — IN efforts to control Malaria, a total of 16,873 households in Bukoba Rural district will undergo Indoor Residual Spraying (IRS) exercise.
Bukoba District Executive Director (DED) Ms Gladys Dyamvunye, named the 13 Wards to be covered under Phase four to include Nyakato, Rukoma, Buhendangabo, Kaagya, Ruhunga and Rubafu. Others are Kibirizi, Ibwera, Kishogo, Nyakibimbili, Mugajwale, Izimbya and Katoro.
According to the 2008/09 Tanzania HIV/AIDS and Malaria Indicator Survey (THMIS), Kagera Region has Malaria prevalence of between 42-45 per cent. Lindi Region has 35 per cent, Mtwara Region has 34 per cent, Mwanza Region has 31 per cent while Mara Region has 30 per cent.
Malaria is still a leading killer disease claiming almost 700,000 lives in Africa annually. Out of the number, 595,000 of them were young children. With just a few years remaining before the deadline set by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), malaria is one of the deadliest diseases, particularly in Africa.
Meanwhile, the rate of maternal deaths in Kagera Region dropped from 194 per 100,000 live births to 88 per 100,000 births during 2010, the Kagera Regional Commissioner (RC), Fabian Massawe, has disclosed. He also said the infant mortality rate (IMR) for children aged below five years also dropped from 110 per 1,000 children during 2005 to five per 1,000 children during 2010.
The mortality rate for children aged above five years improved from 182 per 1,000 children (2005) to 28 per 1,000 children (2010). He attributed the success to improved health delivery services and construction of more dispensaries and health centres.
According to Mr Massawe, the number of dispensaries increased from 206 during 2005 to 239 by 2010, Health Centres increased from 21 (2005) to 28 (2010) while the number of hospitals also increased from 13 during 2005 to 15 by 2010. "The government is keen to ensure that more lives were saved through improved health delivery and construction of health facilities including dispensaries in rural areas where most Tanzanians lived," he said.
He further said a total of 560,484 Insecticide Treated Nets (ITN) were distributed to people in effort to control Malaria, which was a leading killer disease. The efforts include Indoor Residual Spraying (IRS), use of Insecticide Treated Nets (ITN) and to provide measles vaccinations and polio jabs to infants.
Data indicates that a total of 17,506 patients were admitted to various health institutions in Kagera Region during 2010 due to malaria, resulting in 242 deaths.
Out of the number, 80 per cent were children under five and pregnant women. A total of 302 children aged under five years who were admitted (IDP) to various hospitals and health centres in Kagera Region during 2010 died due to Malaria out of 17,725 children admitted to those hospitals.
A total of 272 of the children died of severe malaria (complicated) while 30 others died of uncomplicated malaria. Tanzania has reduced deaths of children aged below five years from 147 for each 1,000 children to 81 by 2010. Mr Massawe said the government was keen to reduce the number of deaths of young children and pregnant mothers by year 2015. He further said that data indicate that a total of 122 children out of 1,000 in Sub-Saharan Africa region die each year during birth.

I've been doing a lot of sewing over the past two years, but have been way too chicken to try making, or refashioning, any clothes. I'm not sure why - if it's something I'm not going to wear anyway, I might as well give it a shot, right?
Well last week I ran across a tutorial on mmmcrafts on turning a pair of boot cut jeans into skinny jeans. Like the author, I have one pair of skinny jeans and could really use another to wear with a few pair of boots I have. Here's the before and after~

Great job!
I had to laugh, though. I grew up getting hand-me downs from older sisters who had gotten them originally from my aunt. My aunt had stylish bell-bottoms, but by the time I wore them, bell-bottoms were NOT in style. My Mom re-fashioned many a pair of jeans for us, taking off the "bell". :) Such fond memories for me.

Relay for Life cancelled due to lack of teams
Posted: May 28, 2014|
CANCER Research UK's Relay for Life has been cancelled in North Devon after a lack of teams mean this year's event was "unviable".
However, organisers have announced that a celebratory evening will be held in its place.
In an announcement on the event's Facebook page, organisers said although the decision to cancel the relay had been taken "with much sadness and regret", they were keen to continue to honour the memories of loved ones.
Clive Pedwell, Cancer Research UK's fundraising manager for North Devon explained: "We are encouraging teams who have signed up for the relay to continue to support our life-saving research by keeping the date in their diary on June 7.
Related content
"Readings will take place, the candle of hope ceremony will be featured which will remember loved ones lost to cancer and there will be music, food and presentations on the night as well as a raffle.
"The evening is to mark a celebration of the Relay For Life history in Braunton, it's supporters over recent years, the survivors, current and former volunteers, and people who have contributed in many ways."
Since its launch in 2008 the event has raised nearly £100,000 for Cancer Research UK.
Although next week's event will focus on celebrating life rather than fundraising, more than £5,000 has already been raised for Cancer Research UK in the run up to the planned relay.
Mr Pedwell said: "I would like to thank all the supporters who have worked hard to bring together this evening event and although the 24-hour Relay will not be taking place, we feel this is a fitting tribute to all the hard work the people in North Devon have achieved."
The celebratory event will be held at the Isaac Hall in Braunton on Saturday, June 7.

Barbra Streisand and Seth Rogen charm in 'The Guilt Trip' trailer
The trailer for "The Guilt Trip" has finally arrived. Barbra Streisand and Seth Rogen star in this movie about an inventor who takes his mother along with him on a road trip to secretly help reunite her with her long-lost love. Don't let that sweet description fool you, because it seems like their story quickly goes off the rails from there.
Yahoo! Movies has the trailer, and there are certainly plenty of laughs to be had. We totally buy Streisand and Rogen as mother and son, which is something we never thought we'd say. The film has plenty of other familiar faces as well, including Adam Scott, Colin Hanks, Yvonne Strahovski, Danny Pudi and Dale Dickey.
Anne Fletcher directed "The Guilt Trip," and we see plenty of elements of "The Proposal" in this film. It clearly will go off the handle at least once (hopefully that Streisand steak scene is as fantastic as "The Proposal" sequence with Betty White in the woods), but it also seems to have plenty of heart. What's not to like about that?
So what do you think, Zap2it readers? Is this a movie you're interested in seeing?

Perhaps using _a_ "strict" definition. However, from the "Jargon file":
download vt. To transfer data or (esp.) code from a larger `host' system
(esp. a mainframe) over a digital comm link to a smaller `client'
system, esp. a microcomputer or specialized peripheral. Oppose upload.
However, note that ground-to-space communications has its own usage rule
for this term. Space-to-earth transmission is always `down' and the
reverse `up' regardless of the relative size of the computers
involved. So far the in-space machines have invariably been
smaller; thus the upload/download distinction has been reversed from its
usual sense.
In the first definition's sense, I would call "lots of people"s usage
correct. This is a very old definition, but not necessarily the most
correct one in all cases.
When I develop for an embedded system, I "download to" the target. When
using the internet, "usually" the computer "you" are transferring files to
your computer from is a file server powerful enough to handle lots of
connections, so it is typically "larger" than your computer and you are
"downloading". However, it could be an internet-enabled coffeemaker, and
you could be "uploading" the coffeemaker status.

It is sending your queries to MS. If you are searching for pr0n, MS will
know. They may or may not have enough information in the collected data
to identify you personally, but combined with other information it could
be damning if you were searching for explosives howtos shortly before
someone bombed the Capitol. ;)

Ceftin FDA Prescribing Information: Side Effects
(Adverse Reactions)
CEFTIN (cefuroxime axetil) TABLETS IN CLINICAL TRIALS
Multiple-Dose Dosing Regimens
7 to 10 Days Dosing
Using multiple doses of cefuroxime axetil tablets, 912 patients were treated with cefuroxime axetil (125 to 500 mg twice daily). There were no deaths or permanent disabilities thought related to drug toxicity. Twenty (2.2%) patients discontinued medication due to adverse events thought by the investigators to be possibly, probably, or almost certainly related to drug toxicity. Seventeen (85%) of the 20 patients who discontinued therapy did so because of gastrointestinal disturbances, including diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. The percentage of cefuroxime axetil tablet-treated patients who discontinued study drug because of adverse events was very similar at daily doses of 1,000, 500, and 250 mg (2.3%, 2.1%, and 2.2%, respectively). However, the incidence of gastrointestinal adverse events increased with the higher recommended doses.
The following adverse events were thought by the investigators to be possibly, probably, or almost certainly related to cefuroxime axetil tablets in multiple-dose clinical trials (n = 912 cefuroxime axetil-treated patients).

5-Day Experience (see CLINICAL STUDIES section)
In clinical trials using CEFTIN (cefuroxime axetil) in a dose of 250 mg twice daily in the treatment of secondary bacterial infections of acute bronchitis, 399 patients were treated for 5 days and 402 patients were treated for 10 days. No difference in the occurrence of adverse events was found between the 2 regimens.
In Clinical Trials for Early Lyme Disease With 20 Days Dosing
Two multicenter trials assessed cefuroxime axetil tablets 500 mg twice a day for 20 days. The most common drug-related adverse experiences were diarrhea (10.6% of patients), Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction (5.6%), and vaginitis (5.4%). Other adverse experiences occurred with frequencies comparable to those reported with 7 to 10 days dosing.
Single-Dose Regimen for Uncomplicated Gonorrhea
In clinical trials using a single dose of cefuroxime axetil tablets, 1,061 patients were treated with the recommended dosage of cefuroxime axetil (1,000 mg) for the treatment of uncomplicated gonorrhea. There were no deaths or permanent disabilities thought related to drug toxicity in these studies.
The following adverse events were thought by the investigators to be possibly, probably, or almost certainly related to cefuroxime axetil in 1,000-mg single-dose clinical trials of cefuroxime axetil tablets in the treatment of uncomplicated gonorrhea conducted in the United States.

Ceftin (cefuroxime axetil) For Oral Suspension In Clinical Trials
In clinical trials using multiple doses of cefuroxime axetil powder for oral suspension, pediatric patients (96.7% of whom were younger than 12 years of age) were treated with the recommended dosages of cefuroxime axetil (20 to 30 mg/kg/day divided twice a day up to a maximum dose of 500 or 1,000 mg/day, respectively). There were no deaths or permanent disabilities in any of the patients in these studies. Eleven US patients (1.2%) discontinued medication due to adverse events thought by the investigators to be possibly, probably, or almost certainly related to drug toxicity. The discontinuations were primarily for gastrointestinal disturbances, usually diarrhea or vomiting. During clinical trials, discontinuation of therapy due to the taste and/or problems with administering this drug occurred in 13 (1.4%) pediatric patients enrolled at centers in the United States.
The following adverse events were thought by the investigators to be possibly, probably, or almost certainly related to cefuroxime axetil for oral suspension in multiple-dose clinical trials (n = 931 cefuroxime axetil-treated US patients).

text: DownloadAdam Pain and Simon LevineNovember 2012This publication is an output of the following project: Resilience and humanitarian action OverviewDownloadsOverview Much of the aid world is debating how aid investment can be reoriented towards supporting the resilience of people who face crises. Resilience is usually being framed in terms of risk, and of people's ability to cope with the shocks that they are at risk of experiencing. Although there is an intuitive clarity about the importance of focusing on resilience, this paper finds that symptoms of resilience can too easily be mis-identified, and that there is a real danger that many of the structural factors that prevent people from living with security about their futures may be hidden and thus missed. 'Resilience' is sometimes promoted because of its positive perspective about what people can do for themselves. This paper agrees that people's 'agency' – their ability to develop and see through their own choices for their lives – should be the central focus of analysis, rather than any predetermined set of indicators about assets, income, education, etc. However, the paper argues that to do this, it is better to retain a focus on what constrains people's freedom to act and that vulnerability, rather than resilience, remains the most useful way of analysing this. The paper suggests ways in which people's ability to invest in their futures can be analysed, and how this could form the basis for more useful ways of monitoring any interventions. This would ensure that efforts to support resilience remain grounded in the reality of people's lives and their context, rather than being pre-designed according to simple generic indicators and formulae.Language: EnglishView content in the Search Centre:Humanitarian policyLivelihoods and food security in crisesResilience Downloads A conceptual analysis of livelihoods and resilience-addressing the 'insecurity of agency' A conceptual analysis of livelihoods and resilience-addressing the 'insecurity of agency'

Channel 45 is the only station in the Twin Cities with its own mascot, the FORTY5 Guy, who is often seen at community events around the region.
In 2003, KSTC began broadcasting two digital stations, KSTC-DT on ATSC channel 45-1 in standard definition, simulcasting the station's regular content. They also began broadcasting terrestrial HDnet in high-definition on KTSC-DT2 channel 45-2. After its contract with HDnet ended, channel 45-2 was taken off the air. It signed on again on December 1, 2006, as a high-definition sports channel including select Minnesota Wild games.
However, in the few years it has been operating under the KSTC call letters, several other low-budget programs made specifically for KSTC have come and gone. These included a weekly horror movie broadcast under the name Horror Incorporated, hosted by Count Dracula (played by Jake Esau, the actual owner of the countdracula.com domain name). With the last incarnation of Horror Incorporated being hosted by Uncle Ghoulie, (Thom Lange) Carbuncle (Tim McCall), 13 (Sasha Yvonne Walloch), Gordon the Gorilla and Wolfie. As of 2004, at least one KSTC-specific program was still airing. Nate on Drums, a comedy and variety show hosted by Nate Perbix, is reportedly broadcast to a network of stations across Minnesota.
Other material adding to the local flair over the years has included a number of different sporting events. In 2004, KSTC announced a six-year over-the-air partnership with the Minnesota Timberwolves, allowing the station to broadcast the team's regular-season and postseason basketball games Also in 2004, KSTC entered into an eleven year partnership with the Minnesota State High School League to broadcast state athletic tournaments as well as educational and student programs. KSTC will pay the League $9.7 million in rights fees, plus provide an additional $10.6 million worth of promotion for those tournaments and other League programs Additionally, in December 2004, KSTC established a multi-year partnership to air Minnesota Wild ice hockey games.
Other sports have also aired on KSTC in the past, including Minnesota Twins and Saint Paul Saints baseball, boxing, and even Robot Wars-style combat between mechanical competitors.
As of the Summer of 2006, KSTC has been including actual viewers in their Programming Promotions. Most include a viewer describing their favorite scene or character from one of the shows on KSTC.
Shows that are on late at night My Wife and Kids, Comics Unleashed, and The Bernie Mac Show.
Weekend shows are Degrassi, On The Road With Jason Davis, Lost, Dead Zone, Stargate Atlantis, Star Trek, ReGenesis, According To Jim, Chapelle's Show
This fall KSTC switched their "prime time" lineup. Previously it was Cheers at 8-9 P.M., and Frasier at 9-10 P.M. Frasier got moved to 5-6 P.M. Cheers got cut back to the 1 P.M. slot. KSTC picked up Trivial Pursuit, That's 70's Show, and Punk'D in the Fall of 2008.

We have two Burgmans and a Yamaha VStar 1100 and Kawasaki 900 Vulcan and another little Yamaha Vino 125. My son has a 2009 Aprilia Scarabeo 200. He likes it a lot. It goes fast enough to keep up and it surprised me at how well it rode from Kelowna to Calgary, 600 miles of mountain roads, very much fun. (I was on my V-Star.) It's a very nice scooter, very capable, but it has no storage space.
As for Aprilia = Piaggio, my experience is that it is very difficult to get parts if anything breaks. We waited fourteen months. We met a lady in a gas station who raved about her Aprila Mana (cool bike!), but she reported that it was in the shop for half the season in 2011, likewise waiting on parts. As far as we can determine, the problem lies with the North American Piaggio distributor not getting parts from Italy (or wherever they come from nowadays).
Your mileage may vary, but ask around before you fall in love with a Piaggio motorcycle. I don't have the same problems getting parts from Suzuki or Yamaha or Kawasaki. I know there are people that really like them, but I would not own another one unless I lived in Europe. I don't believe they take the North American scooter market seriously, but then who does?

Michael Oberman is a partner in Kramer Levin's Litigation Department and head of its Alternative Dispute Resolution Practice Group. He has litigated a wide variety of complex civil cases at the trial and appellate levels and in arbitration, including antitrust, breach of contract, copyright, securities and trademark cases.
In recent matters, Mr. Oberman served as lead trial counsel for respondent in a 20-day arbitration in which claimant sought over $130 million in damages; the arbitrators' award dismissed all of claimant's claims with prejudice and denied claimant any recovery of damages. He then successfully represented respondent in the judicial review of the award: the award was confirmed by N.Y. Supreme Court, N.Y. County; Supreme Court's judgment was unanimously affirmed by the Appellate Division - First Department; and ultimately unanimously affirmed in November 2011 by the N.Y. Court of Appeals (in a decision of first impression on the standard for "evident partiality" to be applied by N.Y. state courts under the Federal Arbitration Act). He obtained an arbitration award dismissing a claim for $60 million in alleged lost profits damages on a pre-hearing motion, which was confirmed by the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. He also obtained injunctive relief on behalf of a publisher of video games in a landmark decision providing expansive copyright protection for video games. In another case, he obtained a judgment dismissing a claim for $100 million in consequential damages.
Mr. Oberman's experience in alternative dispute resolution proceedings includes service as an arbitrator and a mediator. He is a member of the American Arbitration Association's Large, Complex Commercial Case Panel as well its Commercial Arbitration and Mediation Panels, and of the CPR Panel of Distinguished Neutrals. He is a Fellow of the College of Commercial Arbitrators and a member of the College's Education Committee. Mr. Oberman was one of the first attorneys chosen as a mediator for the Mandatory Mediation Program of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.
In addition to serving as an advocate and as a neutral, Mr. Oberman has written on court and ADR procedures and administration and is active in efforts for court and ADR reform. He has served as a member of Chief Judge Kaye's Commercial Courts Task Force, which created the Commercial Division of the New York Supreme Court, and as a member of the Advisory Committee on Second Circuit Rules and Operating Procedures. Since 1989, he has served as a member of the Executive Committee of the Commercial & Federal Litigation Section of the New York Bar Association and was the Section's Delegate in the New York State Bar Association House of Delegates from 1989-91. He is also a member of the Dispute Resolution Sections of the American Bar and New York State Bar Associations. In 2009, Mr. Oberman was an invited participant at the National Summit on Business to Business Arbitration held in Washington, D.C.
Mr. Oberman was recognized by New York Super Lawyers from 2006-2014.

I chose La Salle for many different reasons but one of the biggest was this school's commitment to service. I loved the sense of community I found here and I immediately felt welcome when I arrived on campus. I could really picture myself spending four years of my life here doing things I loved and being around great people.
La Salle's campus surprised me when I came for a tour during my junior year of high school. I am still surprised by the extensiveness of our campus and how much green area we have in an urban neighborhood. I was surprised that I could have a city school that could look like this: trees, green lawns on the quad, flowers!
