Smaller loans for charities and social enterprises, delivered through a range of intermediaries
The Growth Fund is designed to provide the finance that charities and social enterprises need when they are at early stages of growth or diversifying their business models. The fund is aimed at organisations which will probably not have taken on social investment before.
The finance will be small, flexible, and affordable and will be available in simple products. The finance will enable organisations to create more social impact.
Typically, this type of finance has not been readily available. This is often because the lender considers such finance to be high risk and therefore charities and social enterprises find it unaffordable. Or the finance needs to be of a minimum size to cover deal costs which is too big for an organisation's stage of development.
This 'gap' represents lost opportunities for organisations to change more lives or deliver more services for individuals and communities.
What is the problem that the Growth Fund is trying to solve?
The Growth Fund aims to tackle the reasons for this financing gap, namely:
- the shortage of unsecured, smaller, flexible loans for charities and social enterprises that are seeking finance to test their model, survive and grow
- the high costs for social lenders to deliver this type of finance, which restricts supply
- the lack of track record and often the perception of high risk which prices loans out of reach for social enterprises and charities.
The Growth Fund is Access's first programme and it has been designed with its partners, Big Lottery Fund and Big Society Capital. Each partner brings its unique resources and expertise to deliver the Fund's aims.
What will the Growth Fund offer?
Access will manage the Growth Fund in a wholesale capacity, working through social lenders, who will set up funds and make loans to charities and social enterprises. The Growth Fund offers social lenders the opportunity to provide charities and social enterprises with the type and amount of finance they need, when they need it.
The Growth Fund offers charities and social enterprises up to £150,000 of flexible finance by combining grants with loans into simple products.
Across its portfolio as a whole, the Growth Fund will seek to achieve a geographical spread of users and end beneficiaries across England, as well as support a range of social issues.
What does Access aim to achieve with the Growth Fund?
The Growth Fund is a response to evidence gathered from and by the sector on the difficulties that many charities and social enterprises find in seeking appropriate social investment. The Growth Fund aims to:
- Help more established organisations be able to maintain and increase their social impact and their sustainability
- Enable newer and early stage charities and social enterprises deliver social outcomes, by providing them with the finance they need to continue and grow
- Improve the delivery capacity of these organisations so that they are able meet the needs of their target group
- Share learning by being open, transparent and collaborative around best practice to the benefit of both users of the Growth Fund and of other funders and bodies interested in supporting social impact. Over time, this helps to ensure that limited resources are used to greatest effect.

However more to the point, I am excited to see that the video game industry is strong enough to support such high quality ads. I remember the first video-game commercials I saw, they were for PS1 games. They also shocked the hell out of me. The fact that games got any airtime on TV meant that the industry had truly penetrated the core of American culture. However, at the time the ads were short and mainly consisted of in-game video. The fact that video game companies trusted their games to sell enough to balance out the high price of running an ad in North America really says alot about the industry. The present state of video games is more an indicator of this than any time before it.
How can someone make this conjecture?
Well, you can think about it like this: now that these Ads are becoming more regular and of far better quality, one can only assume the same about the games. Would you drop a cool half-mil or so on an ad if you didnt think the game would be able to pay for it? Hell no!
The artistry of the ads also has alot to say about the State of the industry Take the bipolar good v. evil twin ads for Fable, for example. These are the most artistic ads I have seen in a long time, in any industry. The lighting portrays the thoughts of the character and ingame footage is tied directly to the action on screen, not one word needs to be spoken.
This is a reflection of the artistry of the games. It has gotten to the point where the argument over "what games are good enough to become movies" has shifted to "what movies are good enough to become games".Video games are not only advancing in the field of visuals, but also in the fine art of narration. Orson Scott Card, a fantastic science fiction writer, author of "Ender's Game", recently finished work on a script for Advent Rising, an upcoming action game for the Xbox and PC. However, with the advent of a new era of famous writers authoring game storylines comes the advent of new problems as well. Where do we draw the line? When does a game become so wrapped up in its own story to even be playable? There are only so many deep themes that can be conveyed in a setting of beating something with a stick, or shooting it, two of the most prevalent ways of playing through todays games. We need a breakthrough. I want to see a designer produce a game that can give us the themes and emotions of "The English Patient" and a game that will cover the archetypes of human life in such a satirical way as Voltaire's <u>Candide</u>, and not just that but have it be fun. If any man can do this,he or she can claim sole responsibility for the acceptance of video games as an artform. As it is, we can only rely on our graphics and soundtracks, which are really just pre-existing artforms thrown into a playable setting. Some games give me hope, FFX, Beyond Good and Evil, Fable, but the game that can weasel its way into an art class, or *gasp* maybe an English class, will be the one to revolutionize games.

BLACKSBURG, Va. —- The sign in the downtown store that sells Virginia Tech paraphernalia was quite clear: "No Media, Please."
It's a fair response to the media onslaught that was expected for the one-year anniversary of the most deadly campus shooting in history. On April 16, 2007, a sociopath gunned down 32 students and then took his own life. Within hours, hordes of news media were sticking microphones, cameras and notebooks into the faces of shell-shocked students.
But that sign in the store is also not fair.
The media arrives at such events to document what happened and share it with the rest of the world, as NPR did. The reporters and photographers are not there as ghouls or scavengers to feed on pain or exploit grief — though to some it undoubtedly feels that way.
In one significant respect, the media cover tragedies to ensure that no one ever forgets the horror that's happened. Their immediate role is to tell the story, but it is also journalists who write the first draft of history. And then in the decades to come, historians often study the coverage.
In 2002, I co-authored a book, Running Toward Danger, about how journalists covered 9-11. One photographer told of a New York policeman yelling at him for taking pictures of ash-covered people making their way through the wreckage. After the photographer explained that he felt a sacred obligation to document what occurred so people would always remember, the policeman helped him.
Last week, when talking to Virginia Tech students I found many still miffed at the media but without giving much thought to the key role the press play in our society.
There is something else the 20 students I spoke to in an honor's class helping to archive massacre material also did not understand about the press: Covering a story like Virginia Tech takes a psychological toll on journalists as well. Reporters aren't automatons. They are parents, spouses and siblings. They are also professionals parachuting in to do a job, usually on a tight deadline.
NPR sent eight people to campus a year ago, and for each, it was a tough assignment. Only correspondent Adam Hochberg returned for the anniversary.
NPR's Rachel Martin, now a host of a Bryant Park Project, prides herself on connecting with people she interviews.
But she didn't have time to build rapport "when you're standing in the middle of campus and you need to find a crying person and you need to do it in about 20 minutes so you can file your piece," she said, in recalling the Virginia Tech story. "When you are doing this, it is essential to shut down emotionally. Everything I knew about being courteous and polite and empathetic when talking with victims had to get thrown out the window in order to get the job done. I had a hard time with that."
It was the same for NPR producer Marisa Penaloza.
"I shut out everything else but the task at hand," said Penaloza. "It's a self-preserving mechanism that helps me keep going. I guess knowing that I'll come out of the situation when my assignment ends to a loving family and my morning run helps me get through it. I feel a huge responsibility to NPR listeners but also to the subjects. When people have just gone through tragedy, I want to make sure that I'm not in any way affecting their grieving."
All Things Considered host, Melissa Block also felt uncomfortable being part of the media throng that numbered in the hundreds. She put on "emotional blinders" while reporting — pumped up on "Big Story" adrenaline.
"Invariably these stories involve approaching people consumed with grief, asking them to share highly intimate feelings about pain and loss," said Block. "My first impulse tends to be on the order of NO NO NO NO! I consider myself a private person and my instinct is to honor the privacy of others."
But she couldn't do that in Blacksburg. She had deadlines. She needed to get stories done, and listeners wanted to hear them.
I covered the massacre as a stringer for the New York Times.
All week, I took notes on story after story of heroism and heartbreak, and soon I became inured in a way that embarrassed me. I knew I was simply in "reporter mode," where you do anything to get the quote or the story. I was as guilty as the next reporter of using Facebook or pseudo empathetic emails to plead for interviews.
By the Saturday of that week, I was in a crowd on a school football field covering freshman Emily Hilscher's outdoor memorial service. It was a crisp spring day under a blazing sun. Speakers gushed about Emily, a quirky 18-year-old thrilled to be at Virginia Tech who loved horses and intended to become a veterinarian.
"She'd rather wear jeans than a dress, drive a truck than a sports car, clean a stall than her room, visit the stable than the mall," said her older sister.
I sat there listening and tried to feel something, shocked that I, someone who cries at telephone commercials, felt numb. The excitement I'd felt at the beginning of the week had caught up with me, along with the magnitude of what had happened.
It was days later, after I was home, that I was overcome with emotion for all I had seen and heard — and not felt — for six days in Blacksburg. The words of Emily's mother haunted me. Emily was protective of her mother, and as the last child to go to college, she worried about her mother being lonely. Early every morning, Emily would Instant Message her mom, encouraging her to have a nice day.
But a year ago, Emily was killed in her dorm shortly after 7 a.m. "I knew something was wrong on Monday morning when nothing popped up on Instant Message," her mother said at the service.
A year later, I sometimes still think about Emily's mother, knowing that each morning is another without an Instant Message.

Life is not fair. It is very precious.
The "winners" write history. Corrections, if at all, are on the back pages of our papers.
When there is domestic trauma, the press goes into post disaster blitz, and we get inundated with the same story over and over. Your report has to look for someone that is crying; that is objective?
How many people were killed in Iraq the week of Virginia Tech? How many people died violently in Iraq, the Congo, or in U.S. streets this week? How many South East Asians were killed during the Vietnam War? The media ignores some people's plight.
I am sorry for the people of Virginia Tech; it was a tragedy.
Why don't the listeners on NPR elect the ombudsman?
The reports on the "10%" in the Penn. primary are inaccurate and are being rounded up to inflate a candidacy. Please report these accurately. The main stream media has promoted a lot of inaacurrate information on behalf of a U.S. Presidential candidate who is the wife of a former President. It is offensive and creates mistrust of the media.
I believe someone should research Hillary's claim of monies raised by 60,000 individuals since her win in
Pa. Because she said it does not make it so and further no one has investigated her claim. Maybe the majority came from a pac or single supporter. Follow up is essential
Oh my, Yet another self-promoting book plug for the new non-elected Ombudsman. Have you no shame? Why don't you just post everything you've authored and maybe NPR can sell your books in the NPR Shop? That way we can be spared from having to read about your authored works directly from you In your short time at NPR, you have already demonstrated that this is not going to work. Perhaps you should go back to academia, go on your book tours, etc, but please, do not use NPR as a platform for self-promotion. As per you last posting, stop the pitty party, grow a back bone, go to places such as the Democratic Republic of Congo, Sudan, Darfur, Juarez, and many other places where people are desperate to have their story told.
Your commentary indicates that for the reporter, it's all about me getting my job done. Sorry if you get hurt or pushed around in the process. Truck drivers and policemen should have your attitude when they go out on assignment. You should show all the consideration for them in their heroic work that you expect in doing yours.
It is quite fair for VA Tech folks to say NO MEDIA. Our corporate media is nearly useless in my view, and having them hound someone for a "correct story" for a deadline is not only useless but mean. If I am ever in a tragedy like that, I will start from NO MEDIA position and only issue pre-written statements - so the "news" folks cannot mess it up.
News is too often created rather than reported. Witness small crowds of people protesting, dancing, fists held high, delighting the photographer and reporter on deadline. Only those people on camera are performing --- the individuals in the background may or may not be protesting, and if involved, frequently are doing so in a relatively peaceful manner --- it is for the reporter that emotion is displayed. I understand why the 'NO MEDIA, PLEASE' sign would be placed in a Blacksburg window. The media had a field day with that tragedy, pressing people to comment when no comment was appropriate, then milking the comment to the extreme. Your quote: "when you're standing in the middle of campus and you need to find a crying person and you need to do it in about 20 minutes so you can file your piece," tells what is wrong --- taking advantage of a crying person in order to make her deadline more emotional. 20 years from now will that emotion play a part in the historical facts of the event? Professional reporting? I think not. Do I expect the media to alter its method of sensationalizing? No, your deadline is your excuse.

Penguins in peril as climate warms
December 17, 2007 02:27 PM - WWF -Climate Change
The penguin population of Antarctica is under pressure from global warming, according to a WWF report. The report, Antarctic Penguins and Climate Change, shows that the four populations of penguins that breed on the Antarctic continent — Adélie, Emperor, Chinstrap and Gentoo — are under escalating pressure. For some, global warming is taking away precious ground on which penguins raise their young. For others, food has become increasingly scarce because of warming in conjunction with overfishing.

The head of the government advisory body that collaborated on the report with Hong Kong University also said the city should establish a "superfund" for cleaning up the environment. Released during Hong Kong's traditionally smoggy winter months, the report is the most ambitious so far to gauge public attitudes about pollution, which frequently obscures the famous harbor.
Is Your Yoga Mat Lacking Personality? Toxic?
December 16, 2007 01:47 PM - Paul Schaefer, ENN
Lakewood, NJ - The ancient practice of yoga has moved one step forward with the introduction of non-toxic, personalized yoga mats. The new product is the brainchild of Gwen Bandes an eco-committed entrepreneur. The company offers all yoga lovers the option to embroider their name, friend's name, or even their pet's name on to an eco friendly yoga mat. Perhaps most importantly the mat is toxin free. It does not contain PVC, lead, or toluene. It's also biodegradable and recyclable.

Birth Control Myths (cont.)
The good news: "The pill is not a cancer-causing agent, but a cancer-reducing agent, with good science to show that with continued pill use there's a dramatic and continued reduction in the incidence of ovarian cancer, and even uterine cancer," says Goldstein.
But what about breast cancer? Gynecologist Margaret Polaneczky, MD, puts those fears to rest as well.
"In general, the message is that it does not impact the risk of breast cancer in most women," says Polaneczky, an associate clinical professor at the Joan and Sanford Weill Medical College of Cornell University in New York City.
The birth control pill's other health concern -- the risk of blood clots -- is slightly more complex, but again doctors say not an issue for most women.
The risk of blood clotting complications such as leg clots or lung clots is about 1 in 1,000 for all women; the risk rises to 3 in 1,000 for women on the pill, so clearly it's not something the majority need to worry about," says Goldstein.
That, however, can change as you age or if you smoke, since doctors say both factors can further increase risks.
In addition, Polaneczky says women who suffer from severe migraines, particularly with neurological symptoms such as arm or leg weakness during a migraine, may also be at increased risk for clotting complications from being on the pill. He says they might want to consider a different form of birth control.
"This should not be an issue if you have a menstrual-related migraine; only if you have neurological complications," says Polaneczky.
While the pill certainly has its share of myths, so too do other forms of birth control. Among the most misunderstood, say doctors, is the intrauterine device (IUD).
Initially it was removed from the market due to the safety issues of one particular IUD design known as the Dalkon Shield (in use from 1971-1974). Today, however, the redesigned IUDs are believed to be both safe and effective.
Still, among the top concerns: That it can interfere with tampon use; that it can dislodge during sex; that it can cause sex to be painful; that it can be felt by a partner. Experts say the answer to all is "no."
"An IUD will not interfere with tampon use, and, when properly inserted, it should not get dislodged during sex or cause you any pain, and your partner should not feel it either," says Erika Banks, MD, associate residency director of obstetrics and gynecology at Montifiore Medical Center, Bronx, N.Y.
If any of these things do happen, says Banks, it's likely the IUD was not properly inserted, so see your doctor. And while sometimes a woman's body can expel an IUD on its own, experts say that is rare and usually occurs only in women who have never had children.

Brooks: Next Year Price Will Be Ready For Klitschko!
Tommy Brooks knows a thing or two about heavyweights. The legendary American coach has trained a who's who of heavyweight greats including Evander Holyfield, Mike Tyson and the Klitschko brothers.
Brooks' latest charge is British heavyweight star David Price (17-2, 15 KOs). Brooks has been overseeing the rebuilding process for the Olympic Bronze medalist, following back-to-back defeats to Tony Thompson.
The rebuilding process continues for Price when he takes on the hard-hitting Yaroslav Zavorotnyi (16-6, 14 KOs) at the Sport and Congress Center in Schwerin, Germany on Saturday, June 7th.
Ahead of Saturday night's action Brooks offers his perspective on Price's development.
''He is coming on like gangbusters, baby!'' said Brooks. ''He has a real bright future ahead of him. I wouldn't be here if I didn't think he could make it all the way to the top.
''His losses to Thompson came because of inexperience. He didn't know what to do. When he got dropped he jumped straight up. When he had Thompson hurt he ran right at him, you've got to set it up.
''But experience doesn't fall out of the sky. He needs to be shown. That's why I am here, to teach him, so that if he is in that situation again he knows what he has to do.
''You can tell he is really starting to understand what I am showing him. If he keeps listening to what I am saying, this time next year he will be ready for Wladimir (Klitschko).''
I would laugh but this is not even funny.Comment by Slowhand on 06-05-2014

PlayStation: Metro station take-over
On February 22, Sony launched the PlayStation Vita portable gaming device with the slogan 'The World is in Play'. The ad campaign celebrates the idea that through the new PS Vita, the two worlds of real life and gaming can be merged. In Belgium, that promise was brought to life by transforming Brussels' biggest metro station into a super-sized soccer stadium with grass, dug-outs, a euphoric coach and a complete soccer team.

UN Chief Urges Inclusion, Equality for Persons with Down SyndromeUnited Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon appealed for better access and equality to health services for persons with Down syndrome. "Too often, persons with disabilities – including those with Down syndrome – face stigma, discrimination and exclusion," said Mr. Ban in a message for World Down Syndrome Day, observed on 21 March, with a special focus this year on "Health and Wellbeing: Access and Equality for All."From http://globalaccessibilitynews.com/2015/03/23/un-chief-urges-inclusion-equality-for-persons-with-down-syndrome-2/, March 24, 2015
UN Conference in Sendai Adopts Action Framework on Disaster Risk Reduction incorporating Disability-inclusive PerspectivesThe third U.N. World Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction was held from March 14 to 18, 2015, in Sendai, Miyagi Prefecture, focusing one of its working sessions on "disability-inclusive disaster risk reduction" for the first time. The Post-Hyogo Framework for Action adopted at the Sendai conference incorporated the need for disaster management measures inclusive of persons with disabilities and expected to be reflected in future disaster management measures of member states and an important milestone for disability inclusion in international development frameworks such as the U.N. Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to be adopted next fall.From http://globalaccessibilitynews.com/2015/03/20/un-conference-in-sendai-adopts-action-framework-on-disaster-risk-reduction-incorporating-disability-inclusive-perspectives/, March 24, 2015
Most Zambians to Afford ICTGovernment is developing the National Information and Communication Technology - ICT strategic and implementation plan to enable Zambians

Towards Digital BangladeshOn January 12, 2014, the present government has elapsed one more year towards the destination of Digital Bangladesh. Though one year is not enough for a great leap in progress, I believe, within a year we could initiate a lot of things which would help us to materialize the Digital Bangladesh. I would like to depict a brief picture of the achievements of the ICT sector in 2014 and our initiation and attempts for achieving Digital Bangladesh in the last year.

UK: Our Cities Must Undergo a Revolution for Older PeopleCities are designed for a mythical average person – super-mobile, without dependants or disabilities but with a cast-iron bladder. This person is more likely to be young than old. And yet by 2030, two-thirds of the world's population will be living in cities and, in high-income societies, a quarter of them will be over the age of 60. There's a paradox at the heart of cities and old people, and it's this: all the research on health and wellbeing – and there's reams of it – suggests that old people are more content and more likely to flourish if they go out, participate in local life and have a decent amount of social interaction.From http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/mar/15/age-friendly-cities-design-future, March 20, 2015
Design for User EmpowermentAs an accessibility researcher, I have noticed that some of the best work comes when there are people with disabilities on the design and development team, contributing to all aspects of the design and implementation, not just as participants in user studies. I call this strong engagement by users design for user empowerment, meaning, in its strongest sense, that the users of the technology are empowered to solve their own accessibility problems. Here, I will try to explain, mostly using examples, why this approach is so powerful.From http://interactions.acm.org/archive/view/march-april-2015/design-for-user-empowerment, March 20, 2015
Zimbabwe: National ICT Policy Needs Re-LookThe Ministry of Information Communication Technology, Postal and Courier Services has been directed to have a relook at the National ICT Policy before presenting it to Cabinet.

Policymakers Must Support Families Affected by Down SyndromeFor many parents, the realization that their child has Down syndrome is a whirlwind of emotions. Still in some parts of Europe in 2015 a diagnosis of Down syndrome can be a sentence to a life of institutionalization, without hope or possibilities, writes Maureen Clarke.From http://www.euractiv.com/sections/health-consumers/policy-makers-must-support-families-affected-down-syndrome-313107, March 20, 2015

"…When there is no way or a chance,
the crazy ones do find solution…"
Part of an Armenian patriotic song dedicated to the Sartarabad Battle – 1918. A battle that not only stopped the Ottoman advance into Yerevan, but also preventing the complete destruction of the Armenian nation. A battle that did put the foundation of the first Armenian Republic back in 1918, May 28.
Karahunj also called as Zorats Karer, or Karahunj or Carahunge (Քարահունջ, Քարահունճ կամ Զորաց քարեր) is an ancient archaeological site near the city of Sisian, Syunik province, Armenia.
Although there are various studies about the site, the latest show that it was also used as astronomical observatory.
A set of more than 200 erected stones out of which about 85 do have holes on them, made the ancient observatory, which is 3500 years older than England's Stonehenge and 3000 years older than the Egyptian pyramids.
What better way to photography an observatory than to view the biggest star, the sun, through it.
I especially liked the Armenia Tricolor (Red – Blue – Orange) like colors that appeared on the lens flare.

The 1st XV played extremely well to win 8 – 15 away at Hammersmith & Fulham who had been 2nd in the league before Saturday's results. The last 5 minutes with OH down to 13 men due to yellow cards saw a herculean defensive effort to keep the opposition from scoring. Here is Simon Miller's match report : "Both teams turned up looking to play a fast game. The pitch was dry and the referee (Argentinean) made it very clear that he wanted a clear tackle area so the game could flow. This is exactly what happened and the opening 10 minutes was played at a frantic pace. H & F had the better of the possession and although they aren't the biggest side they certainly have the most committed runners I've seen in this league, coming at us again and again. We had spoken about defence before the game and it seemed to work as our line speed was good and we kept on chopping them down. eventually though and perhaps slightly unnecessarily we conceded a penalty and they knocked it over to take a 3-0 lead. More of the same followed and they spend a good amount of time in our half and 22. Frustratingly despite the defence working very hard for long period we had a lapse in concentration and didn't go up together allowing them to go back towards a ruck and get within a few meters of the line and then go over in the corner. They missed the conversion 8-0. We finally got some good possession, our scrum probably slightly had...Learn More

Announcement: 2016 Effective Altruism Global Research Meeting Call for Abstracts
Location: August 5th to 7th, University of California, Berkeley
Abstract Deadline: July 10th
Contact: email@example.com
The 2016 Effective Altruism Global Research Meeting is an opportunity for Postgraduate students and early stage academics from a variety of disciplines to present research relevant to Effective Altruism. The meeting will take place on August 5th to 7th, 2016 at UC Berkeley alongside the Effective Altruism Global conference. The meeting will consist of two events, an academic poster session and a number of short oral presentations. Presentations will be awarded to the most exceptional submissions. Participants selected for presentations will still have the option to present a poster.
The Effective Altruism movement, which promotes the use of reason and evidence to determine the most effective ways to improve the world, has grown rapidly over the last three years. It is an interdisciplinary movement which has gained traction amongst academics in a wide range of fields, including Philosophy, Economics and Health. Last year's Effective Altruism Global conference welcomed renowned philosopher Peter Singer and behavioral economist Dan Ariely, as well as 1000 attendees. This year, our speakers include Philip Tetlock (author of Superforecasting), Cass Sunstein (legal scholar and former Administrator of the White House OIRA), Thomas Kalil (Deputy Director for Technology and Innovation at the White House OSTP), Jaan Tallinn (Co-Founder of Skype) and Irene Pepperberg (noted animal cognition scientist).
Effective Altruism Global's featured topics include discussions of the replication crisis, prediction markets, decision making under uncertainty, CRISPR, our obligations to the global poor, as well as a number of other topics that are important to shaping the future. The Research Meeting will run alongside Effective Altruism Global to give academics access to the large audience of interested attendees, and expose the more than 1,000 expected philanthropists, CEOs, and students to research relevant to Effective Altruism.

Video Series: Dominic Wilkinson on Conscientious Objection in Healthcare
Associate Professor and Consultant Neonatologist Dominic Wilkinson (Oxford Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics) argues that medical doctors should not always listen to their own conscience and that often they should do what the patient requests, even when this conflicts with their own values.
Announcement: New Publication: Philosophers Take On the World
Philosophers Take On the World is based on this blog, 'Practical Ethics in the News', and edited by David Edmonds. It is published by OUP and is due out in September 2016.
Every day the news shows us provoking stories about what's going on in the world, about events which raise moral questions and problems. In Philosophers Take On the World a team of philosophers get to grips with a variety of these controversial issues, from the amusing to the shocking, in short, engaging, often controversial pieces. Covering topics from guns to abortion, the morality of drinking alone, hating a sports team, and being rude to cold callers, the essays will make you think again about the judgments we make on a daily basis and the ways in which we choose to conduct our lives.
This item is not yet published, but may be pre-ordered now for delivery when available.

Naughty words What makes swear words so offensive? It's not their meaning or even their sound. Is language itself a red herring here?

Does the desire to punish have any place in modern justice?
Professor Neil Levy, visiting Leverhulme Lecturer, University of Oxford, has recently published a provocative essay at Aeon online magazine:
Human beings are a punitive species. Perhaps because we are social animals, and require the cooperation of others to achieve our goals, we are strongly disposed to punish those who take advantage of us. Those who 'free-ride', taking benefits to which they are not entitled, are subject to exclusion, the imposition of fines or harsher penalties. Wrongdoing arouses strong emotions in us, whether it is done to us, or to others. Our indignation and resentment have fuelled a dizzying variety of punitive practices – ostracism, branding, beheading, quartering, fining, and very many more. The details vary from place to place and time to culture but punishment has been a human universal, because it has been in our evolutionary interests. However, those evolutionary impulses are crude guides to how we should deal with offenders in contemporary society.
Our moral emotions fuel our impulses toward retribution. Retributivists believe that people should be punished because that's what they deserve. Retributivism is not the only justification for punishment, of course. We also punish to deter others, to prevent the person offending again, and perhaps to rehabilitate the offender. But these consequentialist grounds alone cannot justify our current system of criminal justice. We want punishments to 'fit the crime' – the worse the crime, the worse the punishment – without regard for the evidence of whether it 'works', that is, without thinking about punishment in consequentialist terms.
See here for the full article, and to join in the conversation.
Professor Levy has also written on this topic in the Journal of Practical Ethics; Less Blame, Less Crime? The Practical Implications of Moral Responsibility Skepticism.

Should vegans eat meat to be ethically consistent? And other moral puzzles from the latest issue of the Journal of Practical Ethics
Should vegans eat meat to be ethically consistent? And other moral puzzles from the latest issue of the Journal of Practical Ethics
By Brian D. Earp (@briandavidearp)
The latest issue of The Journal of Practical Ethics has just been published online, and it includes several fascinating essays (see the abstracts below). In this blog post, I'd like to draw attention to one of them in particular, because it seemed to me to be especially creative and because it was written by an undergraduate student! The essay – "How Should Vegans Live?" – is by Oxford student Xavier Cohen. I had the pleasure of meeting Xavier several months ago when he presented an earlier draft of his essay at a lively competition in Oxford: he and several others were finalists for the Oxford Uehiro Prize in Practical Ethics, for which I was honored to serve as one of the judges.
In a nutshell, Xavier argues that ethical vegans – that is, vegans who refrain from eating animal products specifically because they wish to reduce harm to animals – may actually be undermining their own aims. This is because, he argues, many vegans are so strict about the lifestyle they adopt (and often advocate) that they end up alienating people who might otherwise be willing to make less-drastic changes to their behavior that would promote animal welfare overall. Moreover, by focusing too narrowly on the issue of directly refraining from consuming animal products, vegans may fail to realize how other actions they take may be indirectly harming animals, perhaps even to a greater degree.

is there a way to get a translation from a .po file with a specific language?
For example I would like to get the English translation from a .po file even though my default cake language is set to Greek.
Of course I could change the default cake language setting to English and then back to Greekbut I don't find this efficient.

Times Literary Supplement
Modern Hebrew Fictionby Gershon Shaked
Gershon Shaked's history of modern Hebrew fiction traces the emergence and development of a literature "against all odds" -- from its European roots in the 1880s, when it had neither a country nor a spoken language, to the flowering of a literary culture on Israeli soil from the founding of the State through the 1990s. The product of more than twenty years of research, it is unique in its scope, profiling four generations of Hebrew writers from Mendele Mokher Seforim, I.L. Peretz, and Haim Nahman Bialik through Shmuel Yosef Agnon, Aharon Appelfeld, Amalia Kahana-Carmon, Amos Oz, and A. B. Yehoshua, to the recent writings of David Grossman, Meir Shalev, and Orly Castel-Bloom.
Through detailed discussions of themes and style in specific texts, Shaked conveys the richness of the Hebrew literary tradition. At the same time, through biographical surveys, historical observations, and sociocultural and political analyses, he illuminates the relationship of these writings to the context in which they were produced, revealing the complex intertextual play between Hebrew literature and life.
Editorial Reviews
Times Literary Supplement
"In this abridgement of his definitive five-volume work in Hebrew (1977–99), Shaked (emer., Hebrew Univ., Jerusalem) first details the war of the languages between Yiddish, the polyglot Germanic language of Jews in the Diaspora, and Hebrew, the traditional sacred language of prayer. Though he barely mentions world literary figures like Sholem Aleichem and I.B. Singer (who wrote mainly in Yiddish), he discusses those few writers who wrote significantly in both Hebrew and Yiddish. Shaked gives both a general picture of historical trends and conditions and acute, succinct explications of the best works by the most notable writers. He catalogs four distinct generations of Hebrew writers—from the European-born of the 1880s to those born in post, 1948 Israel. He devotes full chapters only to Mendele Mokher Seforim and S.Y. Agnon. A detailed index and bibliography, a source list of Hebrew literary journals and newspapers, and a glossary of Hebrew terms and historical references supplement this volume, which is recommended for significant collections in comparative literature and Judaica serving upper-division undergraduates and above." —D. S. Gochberg, Michigan State University, 2001jan CHOICE.

- binding free energy;
- FDA-approved HIV inhibitors;
- HIV-1 PR subtype B and South African subtype C;
- molecular dynamics
We report the first account of a comparative analysis of the binding affinities of nine FDA-approved drugs against subtype B as well as the South African subtype C HIV PR (C-SA). A standardized protocol was used to generate the inhibitor/C-SA PR complexes with the relative positions of the inhibitors taken from the corresponding X-ray structures for subtype B complexes. The dynamics and stability of these complexes were investigated using molecular dynamics calculations. Average relative binding free energies for these inhibitors were calculated from the molecular dynamics simulation using the molecular mechanics generalized Born surface area method. The calculated energies followed a similar trend to the reported experimental binding free energies. Postdynamic hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interaction analysis of the inhibitors with both subtypes reveal similar interactions. Most inhibitors show slightly weaker binding affinities for C-SA PR. Molecular dynamics studies demonstrated increased flap movement for C-SA PR, which can perhaps explain the weaker affinities. This study serves as a standardized platform for optimizing the design of future more potent HIV C-SA PR inhibitors.

Yet again there always seems to be a story behind each game in the NFL. This week it would be Wes Welker's return to the New England Patriots (7-3) after joining the Denver Broncos (9-1) this season. Although listed as probable, interim head coach Jack Del Rio confirmed Welker's status as "definite" for Sunday. Additionally there is the story of the two best quarterbacks in the league facing off for the 15th time in their careers at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro at 6:30 pm (mtn). Peyton Manning and Tom Brady last season (Photo Credit: Denver Broncos) The history between the Broncos and the Patriots are what fuel the matchup and made it a prime time Sunday night game. Tom Brady leads the record between him and Peyton Manning in New England 2-7. The Broncos lead the matchup against the Patriots 6-5 since 2001. It has been iterated many times in the NFL that the determining factor of a hall of fame quarterback is his ability to succeed with any receiver. Without Welker, Brady has not looked like the hall of fame quarterback that we have seen. This season Brady has a career low quarterback rating with 83.6 and a completion rating of 58.7 (25th in the league). Brady's best season was when Welker started in 2007 with a 117.2 passer rating and a 68.9 percentage in which they lost against the New York Giants in the Super Bowl. Welker already has more touchdowns this season (9) than he had in that 2007 season (8). Unlike past seasons the matchup between the Broncos and Patriots doesn't look as heated judging by the statistics. The Broncos have faced better offenses this season in the Eagles and Chargers and better defenses in the Giants, Chiefs, Ravens, and Raiders. All of which they have beaten. Keys to the game: Playing in New England in the middle of November will play a factor. The high of the day is predicted at 29 degrees and windy. Aside from Welker the next crucial player will be tight end Julius Thomas who leads the Broncos in touchdowns with 10. He is listed as questionable because of his knee and has had limited practice this week. Denver's offensive line hasn't looked better than it did last week. Kansas City's superb defense wasn't able to get to Manning once. Against New England they have to continue to play just a strong against a defense that has had 32 sacks this season (tied for sixth in the league). New England has just came off a controversial Monday night loss against Carolina. With a bad taste in their mouth they may have some frustration to take out on the Broncos. The Patriots have been riddled with injuries however tight end Rob Gronkowski has played a few weeks and running back Shane Vereen who had 101 yards in week one but was injured during the game will play in his second week back. The Denver defense has to be on top of these players, amongst the key players (Stevan Ridley, Julian Edelman, Legarrette Blount). Statistically Denver is the better team but the level of competition and rivalry that are between these teams make it a matchup that will be entertaining to watch. The skills of the Broncos however should prevail. Denver Broncos 35 @ New England Patriots 27
