Reporting Non-BAP Hours
Please make sure to look look over the following information before submitting your non-BAP hour! Once you have read and understood the information, please fill out the downloadable form and submit it via firstname.lastname@example.com to our faculty advisor Ron Tilden .
What Are Non Beta Alpha Psi Sponsored Events?
Activities that fall outside the definition of a "Sponsored Activity" are non-BAP. A sponsored activity is defined as either "(1) organized and carried out by the … chapter or (2) …involve participation by the members of the beta Alpha Psi chapter as a group (in which case the chapter has agreed to participate as a chapter and has announced the event at several meetings and promoted participation in the event.)"
Attendance is recorded at the bi-weekly professional meetings and periodic service events as well as at national and regional events. Because of this, members and pledges should NOT report such activity.
Typically Non BAP events are organized/planned/conducted by organizations that do not involve the chapter as a whole. They are activities that one or a few BAP members or pledges elect to attend on their own.

Depart late evening
A visit to Rome is an unforgettable experience. Explore the legends of the ages: the Vatican and Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel, the Colosseum, the Roman Forum and the Catacombs. Stroll down the Via Veneto or sip cappuccino in the Piazza di Spagna. Italy's "Eternal City" is eternally fascinating. Throw a few coins in the Trevi Fountain and you may be back again!
Arrive morning - Depart evening
Allow yourself to be awed by one of Tuscany's Renaissance treasures, Florence. With red tiled roofs, tiny shops and magnificent architecture, this is the romantic capital of Italy. Marvel at the mosaic façade and stained glass of the Duomo, gaze up at the tilting bell tower of Pisa and soak up the sight of the beautiful gold and silver workshops huddled together over the River Arno.
Monte Carlo, two words that are synonymous with luxury and splendour. Lying at the heart of the Riviera, this tiny principality is undoubtedly big on glamour as diamonds, lavish yachts and Ferraris are all part of the lifestyle here. You may be tempted to buy your own after a flutter at Monte Carlo's most famous landmark – the Grand Casino.
A former spa resort, Aix-en-Provence, provides a soothing atmosphere to stroll around as you are accompanied by the sounds of fountain after gently bubbling fountain. If the cobbled streets, dry stone walls, swaths of lilac lavender and tiny farmhouses of Arles feel familiar, you probably have Van Gogh to thank, he produced an astonishing 200 paintings during his first year here.
Arrive morning - Depart late afternoon
Delve into the Picasso Museum or Miró Foundation. Explore the genius of Gaudí too, as you survey the city from Parc Güell, witness the extraordinary Casa Mila and Casa Batlló, and marvel at his unfinished masterpiece, the Sagrada Familia. After all that sight-seeing a shady spot in one of Barcelona's numerous cafés provides the perfect vantage point for watching the colourful street performers on Las Ramblas.
Arrive late morning - Depart late afternoon
With a fascinating history dating back 3,000 years the natural harbour of Cartagena is a major naval port due to its unique position on the Mediterranean coast. A stroll amidst Cartagena's more recent modernista-style architecture- all flamboyant curves, ornate balconies and striking mosaics- may make the ideal prelude to an asiático, the local liqueur coffee.
Arrive morning - Depart afternoon
Grab a cable car to carry you up the ancient Pillar of Hercules for views that will leave you breathless. For the wildlife enthusiast in you there's a stop to appreciate the diverse birdlife and to meet those famous Barbary Apes, of course! Beneath Gibraltar's white cliffs grow a profusion of palm, pine, and cypress. No fewer than 600 varieties of flowers grow here, some found nowhere else on Earth.
Arrive late morning - Depart evening
Portugal's capital spreads its ancient sites on seven steep hillsides that overlook the Tagus River. Feast your eyes on St. George's Castle which overlooks the city atop the highest hill, or the countless balconies ablaze with geraniums and wrought iron lamps that light up the medieval Alfama quarter. Wonder up to the Bairro Alto where you may hear the sorrowful fado singers ring out from cafés.
Arrive morning
The United Kingdom's premier passenger ship port, Southampton was home to the great transatlantic liners of yesteryear. The port serves as your gateway to Southern England's magnificent historic sites, national landmarks, charming villages as well as the great metropolis of London. Southampton is the ideal starting or ending point for a memorable voyage.

Special Issue "Degrowth: The Economic Alternative for the Anthropocene"

Interests: ecological economics; degrowth; theory of value; markets for nature
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The special issue on "Growth, Recession or Degrowth for Sustainability and Equity?" (edited by François Schneider, Giorgos Kallis, Joan Martinez-Alier), published by the Journal of Cleaner Production (Volume 18, Issue 6, 2010 ), constitutes a keystone in the analysis of this emerging economic paradigm. That collection of articles has contributed to trigger debates about the most appropriate way to conceptualize degrowth. The editors have built their theoretical approach mostly on European thinkers, which offers a clear and consistent framework. However, according to our view, this theoretical background―though useful in some circumstances― has not yet been extended so as to grasp the wide variety of alternative social movements and views that promote degrowth but do not call it as such. In particular, we refer to Latin American environmental justice organizations that use the term "Buen Vivir: or "Suma Kausak" (good living in English) to refer to alternative economic and social paradigms that take into account social and ecological complexities and boundaries. In addition, the emphasis among some ecological economists in North America on economic valuation of ecosystem services and other non-market values makes the Americas a context for degrowth that provides an opportunity to emphasize particular issues in the degrowth discussion.
This Special Issue, outlined below, is the result of the collective effort of the organizers and participants to the International Conference on Degrowth in the Americas in Montreal, May 2012. The Special Issue has considerable added value as it builds upon and enhances previous theoretical frameworks, so different world views within the community of degrowth and environmental justice are better represented in degrowth debates.
This special issue starts with an introductory paper from the editors, providing a shared framework to conceptualize degrowth and environmental justice as alternatives to the growth paradigm. The Special Issue is then divided in five (5) interrelated sections matching most of the six (6) main topics of the International Conference on Degrowth in the Americas. Each theme will be covered by a selection of the most relevant theoretical and empirical papers presented at the conference.
- Knowing. How can the physical, biological and social sciences help us in understanding how to enhance the flourishing of the Earth's life systems?
- Relating. What means of relationship and exchange can help enhance the continual flourishing of the Earth's life systems?
- Consenting. How can the major political, economic, development, social, technical, and scientific priorities of society be developed with broad and informed public dialogue and consent?
- Sharing. How can the radically unjust inequalities between people be eliminated; and how can the human fair share of the Earth's life support systems be defined and achieved?
- Experiencing. What would a flourishing society look and feel like for individuals and collectives at various temporal and spatial scales?

Title: An Ethics for Ecosystem Services: The Case of Bullfighting
Author: Nicolas Kosoy
Abstract: This paper aims at analyzing bullfighting from an ecosystem services perspective. For such a endeavor, this paper will first de-construct bullfighting in terms of legitimacy, social identity and historical relationships. As this human-nature relationship is established, the concept of ecosystem services is deconstructed, leading to argument for an ethical imperative towards transparency (procedural transparency) in the decision making process regarding human-nature relationship. Procedural transparency then conveys a co-evolutionary construction of values and also a re-assessment of our place in the Universe. Bullfighting as a cultural ecosystem service is, in sum another expression of homo economics whose supremacy (biological imperative) over other species legitimizes the appropriation, exploitation and pillage of all other forms of capital.
Title: Compassionate Communities: A Breeding Ground for Innovation
Author: Judy Nagy
Abstract: How can building a compassionate community fuel degrowth? The true foundation of the degrowth movement is empathy and caring at the individual level. Once individuals are engaged they can be motivated, as a group, to help people and the environment through their behaviours, beliefs and actions. Near Montreal, a group called Circle of Friends, consisting of 150 families in one community, has responded to the needs of neighbours in crisis, saved an old growth forest from destruction, helped protect an endangered bog, and offered up miraculous 'spiritual gifts' that have changed lives. The COF is project managed, organized and relies on social media to spread their message. For degrowth to succeed as a movement it requires individuals who have developed and practiced their compassion "muscle", building compassionate communities is one solid way to accomplish this goal.
Title: Monetary and Fiscal Policy for a Steady State Economy
Author: Joshua Farley et al.
Abstract: Our current interest bearing, debt-based system of money creation exacerbates booms and busts, systematically transfers wealth and resources to the financial sector. Since interest rates exceed economic growth rates, this monetary system would be unsustainable even on an infinite planet, and it can only finance the creation of market goods and services. We must restore the power of money creation to the public sector, with built in mechanisms for reducing money supply over time as the economy contracts. This will allow the public sector to spend money as needed for public goods, including the restoration of natural capital, without going into debt. This paper assumes the necessity of a steady-state economy. A steady-state economy must follow clear rules: renewable resource extraction cannot exceed the regeneration rate, pollution outflows cannot exceed absorption capacity, neither extraction nor pollution can threaten essential ecosystem functions, and essential non-renewable resources cannot be depleted faster than we develop substitutes. Currently, levels of throughput exceed all these rules. De-growth, defined as decreasing levels of throughput, is therefore an essential first step towards a steady-state economy.
Title: The Priced versus the Priceless
Author: Derek Rasmussen
Abstract: In ancient times, markets had a limited prescribed place within societies; today they enclose societies. Markets used to be embedded in and controlled by societies, now societies are embedded in and controlled by markets. So many of nature's priceless abundances have been walled off and priced that it has become normal for humans to live in fear of being without food and shelter. Living abstract lives dependent on money, we are no longer familiar with nature's seasonal replenishment of these abundances—free of charge, available to the deserving and undeserving alike. The fear that underlies a civilization like ours emphasizes scarcity instead of abundance. Because our relations—human, natural, financial—are rooted in scarcity, we live in fear of things 'running out' and face the sad reality of having no one to turn to. If we can't turn to "our society" and "our neighbours" for help, then the social agglomerations we live in are too large. Amidst environmental degradation and monetized scarcity, how do we reestablish garden-variety trust in each other? How do we recover and encourage our feeling for abundance and our appreciation of things (and nonthings) without prices? Combining my experience of 12 years of living and working with Inuit in Nunavut along with stories of personal advice from Ivan Illich, Gustavo Esteva, and Noam Chomsky, I hope to provide some practical advice for those of us who want to exercise our compassion muscles without being stymied by market relations at every turn.
Title: The Macroeconomics of De-Growth: Can a De-Growth Strategy be Stable?
Author: Dina Padalkina
Abstract: This paper examines an alternative strategy for sustainability and economic development based on de-growth assumptions. This concept is proposed by ecological economists, who consider there to be a natural limitation on economic growth, imposed by necessary environmental regulation. Moreover they oppose the neoclassical ideas, which are considered as pro growth theories, arguing that economic growth itself does not contribute to the social and economic development, therefore it should not be sustained. Accepting this proposition the author makes an attempt to verify the feasibility of a de-growth strategy for macroeconomic stability, applying a post-Keynesian methodology for analysis. The Kaleckian model is used as the basic approach to derive the model restrictions for the de-growth strategy that maintains macroeconomic stability. The findings of this paper will provide policy recommendations to sustain macroeconomic stability, while taking full account of the de-growth assumptions.
Title: Deep Debt and the Invention of "Conscious Capitalism"
Author: James Magnus-Johnston
Abstract: On the heels of the global 'occupy' movement, there is increasing public consciousness about the inadequacies of the global money and banking system. The system's requirement for ever-deepening indebtedness represents the primary institutional barrier to degrowth towards a steady-state economy. An institutional reorientation away from debt and towards savings is a prerequisite for a responsible transition; to degrow in a debt-based system is an invitation for financial volatility. A number of theorists have interrogated how the debt-based banking system impels growth. By synthesizing their theoretical arguments and providing a statistical analysis, I demonstrate how debt (used credit) might be said to have a greater ecological footprint than income (savings). Secondly, I speculate how a savings-based economy might resuscitate the term "capitalism" in critical economic discourse. Mainstream economists and their critics alike have conflated "the economic system" (i.e. "capitalism"), with "the banking system" as the primary subject of argument. Proponents and critics of growth alike are guilty of perpetuating the fallacy that growth is an inevitable consequence of capitalism. It is only in their responses that they diverge -- whereas mainstream economists defend the system, critics protest against it. Through my research, I offer a third perspective: capitalism in a savings-based economy might thrive on sustainable seeds of capital that produce yields. Indeed, perhaps a "conscious capitalism" where capital is characterized as "savings" rather than "credit" represents the most promising catalyst for responsible degrowth towards a steady-state economy.
Title: From Theory to Practice for building an economy of 'Right Relationships'
Author: Sarah Wolcott
Abstract: There is mounting recognition and desire for an economy that enables 'right relationship' (Brown & Garver 2012) with ourselves, one another and the earth. It is understood, here, that right-relationship at a global scale is near impossible within the context of an economic system dependent upon a debt-based monetary system which requires continual economic growth. While this situates the author within the 'de-growth' framework, the emphasis here is on building an eco-nomy of right relationships. In a complex, rapidly changing system where it is impossible to predict which crisis or surprise will next impact various populations, coming into right relationship means enabling the entrenched, niche-specific knowledge about the concrete reality of the current situation as it is changing in real time to inform collective decision making especially around policy and ongoing management. To do this we need to avoid blue-print solutions, including too much overarching rhetoric about the need to 'degrow', and focus instead on building relationships that enable the critical knowledge of the concrete needs of the system to come to the fore. We focus here on knowledge for and relationship to water, and what knowledge needs and approaches are needed to build institutions that enable an economy of right relationships. We focus on case studies in the United States and in India where struggles to enable the connections of the critical knowledges-systems that can support 'right-relationship' and of asking the right questions to change the goal of the system are revealed. The people who have the critical knowledge about the 'right' things to pay attention are generally those involved in managing and using the resource in question. Researchers and other knowledge-brokers within the 'degrowth', 'right relationship' and related movements are seen to play a critical role in provoking, revealing and enabling context-specific approaches and can help to re-frame the goals of the system. Doing so is revealed to get to the heart of systemic issues, regardless of the country in question. While this paper focuses on the importance of the concrete and the sub-national in enabling the emergence of a radically different social-economy (thus following in the light of the suggestions of focusing on the local level (DeGrowth 2010) it is recognised that changing the overarching goals of the system requires continuous, active intellectual and practical work across levels.
Title: Can Economic De-growth Combat Poverty and Achieve Social Equity and Ecological Sustainability within a Capitalist Economy?
Author: Karen Bell
Abstract: Continuing economic growth, though proposed as the answer to poverty and inequality, appears to be ecologically unsustainable. Thus, the degrowth movement has emerged with the agenda of reducing over-consumption. Though this may be better for the natural environment, many would argue that it will increase poverty and inequality. Ironically, the rise of the degrowth movement has coincided with economic recession and stagnation in the richer countries, on a scale not seen since the 1930s. The result of this does, indeed, seem to have increased poverty and inequality. This situation forces us to consider whether degrowth is feasible in a capitalist economy, which appears to depend on growth and if not, what this tells us about how we should transition to an equal, just and ecological society.
Title: De-Growth and Re-Growth: The Story of New England Food and Farming
Author: John E. Carroll
Abstract: What has happened in New England (the "Boston States" to Atlantic and Maritime Canadians) in recent decades is a remarkable story of de-growth and re-growth which provides a powerful model to those interested in fundamental change in our society and the decline of the strong but now weakening model of economic growth to which we've adhered until now. Industrial agriculture, centralized large and mid-scale commodity or export agriculture, has collapsed in New England. It is being replaced by de-centralized small-scale local agriculture producing food for local consumption in New England. With the demise of a centralized food production system, the epitome of the economic growth model as we've known it, we have seen a sharp rise at the grass-roots of the most de-centralized economic model possible, all based on direct sales, farmer to consumer. Such direct marketing is the key to economic sustainability for people on the land and to the maintenance and expansion of a healthy new truly local grass roots economy, with food, both production and processing, at its center. In New England the revolution in local food and farming is at the helm of the new de-centralized economy which is replacing the growth economy of the past. And, in some ways, that new de-centralized New England economy is taking a cue from Quebec and New Brunswick.
Title: What Shall Degrow? Proposals of Bottom-Up Degrowth of Capacity to Produce and Consume
Author: François Schneider
Abstract: The idea of Sustainable Degrowth challenges economic growth. It is also a proposal to reduce the size of the developed economies as a path for sustainability and equity. This article intends to refine the notion of degrowth by clarifying why the idea of reduction of the size of the economy makes sense and what it exactly means. Economy is here understood as the system of production and consumption. Acting directly at the level of emissions, extractions, social problem is bound to fail if we do not take into account the limiting factors to production and consumption. These limiting factors include time, natural resources, infrastructures, money, regulations, satisfaction of needs, awareness and equality and represent different dimensions of what we call the capacity to produce and consume. Some dimensions are more quantitative, others are more qualitative. The size of the economy shall be ultimately related to the limits to production and consumption i.e. with the multidimensional capacity to produce and consume, because the economy transforms and increases its impacts until it reaches these limits. This is what has been described with the macro-rebound effect or Jevons paradox. If the Jevons Paradox does not occur sufficiently (because the filling-up of the capacity to produce and consume is unattainable due to a limit in one of the dimensions) we have economic crises or social crises (e.g. unemployment). It ensues that the only way to solve the multidimensional crisis is with the degrowth of the societal production/consumption capacities, coupled with sufficiency and appropriate efficiency measures. On the opposite, present policies on both local and governmental level are concerned with the increase of the production/consumption capacity. This includes, on one hand, a selection of efficiency innovations that suppress limits to the increase of production and consumption capacity, and, on the other, growth policies that create the framework so that this increase can occur. We propose the combination of frugal innovation i.e. innovations that integrate limits, and degrowth policies consisting of democratic adjustments of capacities at a larger scale so that the macro-rebound is prevented. Adjustments are the completion of the frugal innovation objective at a higher level of complexity. The article suggests practical examples of frugal innovation and adjustment that can be undertaken at micro and macro levels. Using less natural resources can be supported by policies that leave more resources in the ground. Using less cars, producing waste, consuming less energy would be supported by a infrastructure adjustment like a moratorium on road, incineration, fossil energy thermal energy or nuclear plants. Taking time for conviviality would be supported by a reduction of working hours. Earning less and spending less would be supported by finances' related adjustments going out of the "debt or virtual economy". Adjustments at the finance level would also imply replacing world currencies by local currencies. A regulation-based adjustment would generally involve an improvement of social, environmental and product quality standards. An adjustment in the area of needs consists of supporting mutualisation, (in housing for example), and sharing throughout the life-cycles of materials by planning reuse and recycling. A key degrowth adjustment dealing with awareness would involve restricting advertising. Finally, inequality adjustment could introduce measures like basic income and more social security in general, and income ceiling to reduce income gaps.

PARIS - Socialist Francois Hollande took over as France's president Tuesday and jetted off to Berlin hours later for talks on Europe's debt crisis - only to have his plane struck by lightning. No one was hurt.
The Falcon 7X aircraft was hit by lightning shortly after take-off Tuesday, and returned to the Villacoublay air base outside Paris as a precaution for inspection, Defense Ministry spokesman Gerard Gachet said.
Defense officials say the president and his entourage were transferred to another aircraft, a Falcon 900, and took off shortly thereafter. Hollande is due to meet with German Chancellor Angela Merkel to discuss Europe's financial crisis.
It was a stormy presidential beginning for a man who promised to be a more "normal" president and less flashy than predecessor Nicolas Sarkozy.
Hollande walked up the steps of the Elysee Palace in Paris and walked out Tuesday as France's first Socialist president since 1995, taking the helm of a country worried about Europe's future and pledging to make it a fairer place.
The 57-year-old rode to the presidency on a wave of resurgent leftist sentiment amid Europe's debt woes and protests against capitalism around the world.
Hollande then left within hours on his first diplomatic foray to Berlin, following a postwar custom for new French leaders to reach out to their German counterparts to solidify European unity. He also named a moderate, Germany-friendly member of his Socialist party, Jean-Marc Ayrault, as his prime minster.
Hollande and Merkel are in different camps, however, when it comes to solving Europe's debt crisis. While new figures Tuesday showed the 17-nation eurozone has avoided a new recession, thanks largely to Germany, new political turmoil in Greece was reviving fears about the fate of their shared euro currency.

Think Pink – I spotted Rachel (Rachel Jane, according to her foot tattoo) in the West Village, both of us peeking through Zero Maria Cornejo's window after hours. I loved her great combo of nonchalant shirt, figure flattering denim and sharp sandals, topped with that subtle, yet serious CÉLINE bag. It's the fluo trio in hibiscus pink and you can click here to supersize. Her jeans are Paige Denim, with a shirt she got at 'that cheap Ukrainian shop in the East Village,' sunglasses from SEE and 'cheapie shoes.'
I'm kind of dying for the fun shirt and love that it's long (well, she added the long tank) and tuckworthy. I also have a fetish for the thumb tuck trend that I can't seem to get quite right like all the cool girls. Someday soon.
Thanks for the fun shots Rachel, and if you remember the name of that East Village store, please let us know!

Chhimkesory Adventure Camp
We are very excited to introduce our new Chhimkesory Adventure Camp - located at our family village on the banks of the Trisuli River, half way between Kathmandu & Pokhara, on the way to the famous Chitwan National Park. This simple riverside camp is the gateway to our most popular adventure activities, offering the chance to combine multiple rafting, kayaking & canyoning trips and reduce unnecessary travel time dramatically. Our family run camp is the perfect environment to learn to kayak, explore local canyons & waterfalls, experience local village life on a working farm or simply relax in a hammock by the river, while deciding which adventure to do next. Suggested Adventures @ Chhimkesory Camp
Learn to kayak with members of Nepal's National White Water Team! Our camp is located right on the banks of the Trisuli River, with gentle flowing water and a nice large eddy – perfect for learning the basics of white water kayaking. Once you have the fundamental skills, we can easily travel by local bus to any section of the Trisuli River, choosing the white water rapids perfect for your skill set and goals.
Our stay at Paddle Nepal's camp was unforgettable. We learned to kayak in the day and then we relaxed in the hammocks in the afternoon. It was cool to stay right there at the farm where Paddle Nepal owners were born and raised and see the family getting on with their day to day business climbing trees to feed the goats and other animals etc. We had a great BBQ and enjoyed fun games with the guides - even a round of Jenga with local grandfather! The highlight was the waterfall shower. Canyoning was also amazing and even better that we only had to drive for 10 minutes that morning. A cool experience and definitely recommended.

Delaying payment is just delaying the inevitable
May 1, 2012
The issue of late payment has loomed large in my life over the past week. Last Tuesday I was in Westminster to attend a roundtable on the issue, which brought together senior figures from banking, government, financial health, accounting and politics.
I have also had emails on the topic flooding in to my inbox in response to the latest SM100 question. (more…)

Cervical cancer fact sheet
- What is cervical cancer?
- Why should I be concerned about cervical cancer?
- How can I help prevent cervical cancer?
- How often should I get a Pap test?
- More information on cervical cancer
What is cervical cancer?
Cancer is a disease that happens when body cells don't work right. The cells divide really fast and grow out of control. These extra cells form a tumor. Cervical cancer is cancer in the cervix, the lower, narrow part of the uterus (womb). The uterus is the hollow, pear-shaped organ where a baby grows during a woman's pregnancy. The cervix forms a canal that opens into the vagina (birth canal), which leads to the outside of the body.
Most cases of cervical cancer are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). HPV is a virus that is passed from person to person through genital contact, most often during vaginal and anal sex. You are more likely to get HPV if you have multiple partners. However, any woman who has ever had genital contact with another person can get HPV. Most women infected with HPV will not get cervical cancer. But, you are more likely to develop cervical cancer if you smoke, have HIV or reduced immunity, or don't get regular Pap tests. Pap tests look for changes in the cervical cells that could become cancerous if not treated.
If the Pap test finds serious changes in the cells of the cervix, the doctor will suggest more powerful tests such as a colposcopy (kol-POSS-koh-pee). This procedure uses a large microscope called a colposcope (KOL-poh-skohp). This tool allows the doctor to look more closely at the cells of the vagina and cervix. This and other tests can help the doctor decide what areas should be tested for cancer.
Why should I be concerned about cervical cancer?
Cervical cancer is a disease that can be very serious. However, it is a disease that you can help prevent. Cervical cancer happens when normal cells in the cervix change into cancer cells. This normally takes several years to happen, but it can also happen in a very short period of time.
How can I help prevent cervical cancer?
Two kinds of vaccines (Cervarix and Gardasil) can protect girls and young women against the types of HPV that cause most cervical cancers. Cervarix and Gardasil are licensed, safe, and effective for females ages 9 through 26 years. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommended that all girls who are 11 or 12 years old get 3 doses (shots) of either brand of HPV vaccine to protect against cervical cancer and precancer. (Gardasil also protects against most genital warts.) Girls and young women ages 13 through 26 should get all 3 doses of an HPV vaccine if they have not received all doses yet.
It is very important to get all 3 doses. No studies so far have shown whether or not 1 or 2 doses protect as well as getting 3 doses.
Gardasil is also licensed, safe, and effective for males ages 9 through 26 years. Boys and young men may choose to get this vaccine to prevent genital warts.
People who have already had sexual contact before getting all 3 doses of an HPV vaccine might still benefit, but only if they were not infected with the HPV types included in the vaccine they received. The best way to be sure that a person gets the most benefit from HPV vaccination is to complete all three doses before sexual activity begins. Ask your doctor which brand of the vaccine is best for you.
The vaccine does not replace the need to wear condoms to lower your risk of getting other types of HPV and other sexually transmitted infections. Women who have had the HPV vaccine still need to have regular Pap tests. By getting regular Pap tests and pelvic exams, your doctor can find and treat any changing cells before they turn into cancer. Practicing safer sex is also very important. Below are additional things you can do to help protect yourself against HPV and cervical cancer.
- Don't have sex. The best way to prevent any STI is to not have vaginal, oral, or anal sex.
- Be faithful. Having sex with just one partner can also lower your risk. Be faithful to each other. That means that you only have sex with each other and no one else.
- Use condoms. HPV can occur in both female and male genital areas that are not covered by condoms. However, research has shown that condom use is linked to lower cervical cancer rates. Protect yourself with a condom every time you have vaginal, anal, or oral sex.
How often should I get a Pap test?
Follow these guidelines:
- Have a Pap test every 2 years starting at age 21. Women 30 and older who have had three normal Pap tests in a row can now have one every 3 years.
- If you are older than 65, you may be able to stop having Pap tests. Discuss your needs with your doctor.
- If you had your cervix taken out as part of a hysterectomy, you may not need further Pap tests if the surgery was not due to cancer. Talk to your doctor.
- Talk with your doctor or nurse about when to begin testing, how often you should be tested, and when you can stop.

Men's volleyball remains optimistic

The volleyball came hurling continually back and forth over the net. As sophomore Chris Collins sprinted to the ball, his heart pounding, the scoreboard appeared in his peripheral vision.

Duck Confit Hash & Egg a.k.a. Quackin Good Hash & Egg: Breakfast-Brunch
Servings: 0
2 duck legs - skin removed and reserved
duck fat (enough to cover duck in pot)
1 sweet potato, peeled & diced
2 yukon gold potatoes, pelled & diced
1/4 cup dried cherries, chopped
1 scallion, chopped fine
2 leaves rainbow chard, chopped
duck or chicken stock on hand
4 organic eggs
8 oz thyme
salt and pepper
Step 1:
For brine: Begin with one cup of kosher salt and add to this: fresh thyme, cracked black pepper, orange & lemon zest in ample quantities to thickly coat legs & season (you will be rinsing this off in the morning so don't be afraid to load it on) Rub into skin & place in a zipper type bag or bowl, covered overnight in refrigerator. Before placing in duck fat to cook, rinse legs completely in cool water, pat dry & place in enough duck fat to cover -for "confit" process! Simmer gently for several hours until the meat begins to fall off the bone! It's a good idea to do the duck confit, the day before.
Step 2:
Process: In a saute pan render the reserved duck skin to a crispy "crackling" to garnish the dish. While you are rendering skin--which can take a while--peel & dice the potatoes & toss in a bowl with chopped fresh thyme, olive oil, salt & pepper to taste. Place on a sheet pan & roast in 400 degree oven for 15 minutes until golden & slightly crispy.
Step 3:
Add dried cherries, chopped scallions, & chopped chard to diced potatoes. Simmer on stove top in a small amount of olive oil & stock until softened and all the flavors have combined into a hash. Season to taste.
Step 4:
When duck legs are done, remove from fat, & using a fork, shred meat & add to hash & combine, toss & check seasonings. Keep covered in a warm oven while you create a basted egg to set atop your hash. Plate, then garnish with crumbled crispy crackling duck skin. Grab a piece or two of a nice French baguette (with butter or course) & enjoy!!!

Living in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
I may have an option on a job in Jeddah and was wandering if anyone has any experience of living and working there. The role is with the SA National Guard. I am aware of the usual stories but would appreciate anyone who can provide a pepper grinding of ground truth. Thanks in advance, Ops Offr.
- 26-03-2011, 05:19 #2
I was considered for a civvie job in Saudi 10 years ago. I didn't do it and i still woudn't. This is a stone age society where gender segregation is the norm and non-muslims (khafirs) are always 2nd class, even white Europeans/Americans. Like said, cannot comment on how things might work in the forces, but given the current unrest in the region, you might be asked to do some very unpleasant things to the very citizens you ought to protect. Working with the Saudis isn't easy either, they are very much used to everybody else doing everything for them (such as the Pakistanis flying their jets), hence if they can get a foreigner to do a job for them, they see that as an prefered option to working their own people harder to get there.
Oh yes, dont get me started on the no booze, porn and non practising of other religions etc. No amount of money would be sufficient for me to make this move.Teri maan di phuddi vich manji daah key teri bhain di phuddi maroonga !

Worked there for five years, everything that Viceroy said above. However, there are a couple of exceptions. I have never mets so many alcoholics in one place in all my life. This includes members of the host nation. One unfortunate individual died from a drug overdose, the fact that he was a Saudi national was conveniently glossed over.
Socially, the place cannot be faulted, the work will drive you to distraction and can be immensely frustrating because logic will never ever enter the equation.

Holy thread resurrection, Batman...
I could be heading to Riyadh in a couple of weeks. Initial contract is six months, so if I don't like it, I won't be stuck there for too long. No booze? I doubt that, but it wouldn't do me any harm anyway. Accommodation is a "5 Star" ex-pat compound, so there should be a few women around...
What I'd like to know is more about cost of living (I've been out of work so have to get through to first pay day somehow!), any "Do"s and "Don't"s, warnings, what to take, what not to take, jabs? ... basic stuff.
My contact for the role is in Qatar at the moment and difficult, and expensive, to get hold of, so no use on this front, and also the reason why I don't know if I'm going yet or not. I'll probably get two weeks notice to go, so would like to be ready.

six months is doable, depending on what it is and if it isn't during the summer / ramadan, even if its shit, so long the money is right. Life is cheap, as long as you do not have to spend on capital goods (you never have to as an expat). Compound life is great, though you do live in a bubble. You'll meet other expats and generally be bored (bring an Xbox or PS3, one of the few things you're allowed to do).

Thanks for that. Yeah, boredom is a concern!! I plan on a routine of long working days, gym, and whatever else will pass the time. The work is in Validation so mainly office based (hopefully air-conned!). The money's good - I'm not sure on the tax situation yet, as I'll be paid by an Irish company, but still good.
