FAIRFIELD, CONN. (March 6, 2014)—Three members of the Sacred Heart women's basketball team receive all-conference honors as announced by the Northeast Conference Thursday morning via Twitter. Now a three-time All-NEC honoree, Gabrielle Washington (Mesa, Ariz.) was named to the All-NEC first team, while Adaysha Williams (LaCrosse, Wis.) and Hannah Kimmel (Harpursville, N.Y.) earned spots on the All-Rookie team.
This season, Washington made history becoming the first player in the Northeast Conference to record back-to-back 30+ point games when she tallied 35 against Robert Morris and 32 against Saint Francis U in the opening weekend of conference play. She nearly made it three games in a row when she scored 28 against Mount St. Mary's the following weekend. The Mesa, Ariz. native leads the Pioneers and is sixth in the league with 17.6 points per game after recording 11 20+ point performances in the regular season. Scored 23 points in an overtime bout with Big East opponent Villanova, the former NEC Rookie of the Year and two-time All-NEC second team selection recorded her 1,000th career point.
Williams has had big shoes to fill this season. Stepping in for an injured senior, the 5-8 guard is averaging 8.6 points per game. Working her way into the starting lineup for 27, the LaCrosse, Wis. native has reached double-digit points 14 times this season with her season-best of 17 coming in Sacred Heart's 63-46 win over Wagner. On November 25, 2013, she earned Northeast Conference Rookie of the Week honors after leading the Pioneers to victory over MAAC member Saint Peter's shooting 50% from the field scoring 10 points.
After being sidelined with injuries her first two seasons at Sacred Heart, Kimmel has continued to get better and better throughout the 2013-14 season. Averaging 10.0 points per game, and a team leading 5.9 rebounds per game, Kimmel posted a career-high 24 points in the Pioneers' 77-53 win over St. Francis Brooklyn. The Harpursville, N.Y. native has recorded three double-doubles and on Saturday pulled down a career-best 13 rebounds against LIU Brooklyn.
No. 6 Sacred Heart opens the NEC Tournament this Sunday against No. 3 Saint Francis U in Loretto, Pa. at 3:00 p.m. The game will be streamed live on NECFrontRow.com.

Hanging containers of tuberous begonias brighten up a porch or balcony in summer and early fall. To care for them, you need suitable containers, soilless potting mix, mulch and fertilizer.Continue Reading
Tuberous begonias should be hung in areas with shade or partial shade. Direct sunlight burns the leaves and blossoms. Choose containers that are light, non-porous and have good drainage.
Begonias are often bought already potted at the nursery. Take care transplanting them into the containers of your choice, as the leaves and stems are fragile and break easily. Fill the container about two-thirds full of soilless potting mix, which provides good drainage and is free of pests and diseases. Avoid using garden soil, which is heavy and full of potential adversaries. Arrange the begonias in the container, and add another inch of soil. Top the soil with mulch to help hold the moisture.
Before watering the begonias, check if the soil is moist by sticking your finger in it. If it is still moist, do not water it. Use a bulb fertilizer or a time-release fertilizer about once a month, especially during the growing season.
Begonias cannot handle frost. Many people plant them as annuals and begin again the following year. However, if you want to preserve your hanging begonias, bring them indoors before the first frost.

Gary Mittleider
Eventually, Gary and his wife Brenda decided to start their own business by purchasing a five-acre property in Kuna, Idaho in the fall of 1980. It's hard to believe now, but when they first bought the property it was nothing but five acres of dirt and tumbleweeds. All of the current fencing, barns and infrastructures have been built throughout the years, and a further 15 acres was added. The first thing to be built was was a small red bard, with 12 X 12 box stalls for the horses and of course a small racetrack. Then, they began to build their house, and a small outdoor ring which was about ½ size of the current arena. Eventually, Gary took a liking to jumping and eventing. As Gary began shifting his interest from the racetrack to jumping, he felt always his strength was galloping cross country. His early mentors Bob Mc Donald, Gene Louis and Ernest Herrmann all influenced his riding and teaching style. During the early times of his eventing career he also worked at a saddle shop making quality western saddles.

Where are the Wetlands?
Objective: To identify one or more types of wetlands
Many students will recognize the marshes along the coast as wetlands. Wetlands can be very large or very small and those along the coast are just a few examples of the types of the wetlands. Along with the freshwater, intermediate, brackish, and salt marshes of the coastal area, there are freshwater inland marshes, bottomland hardwood forests, edges of creeks, streams and ponds, and low elevation spots in fields that are considered to be wetlands. Lesser known wetlands may be the inland salt marshes of Utah and the Dakotas, the bogs in the northeastern and north-central United States, and the potholes of the northern Great Plains.
Activity: (for elementary - high school)
Have the students walk around and observe the wetland(s) they find. Observations should include types of plants and animals, types of soil, smells, and sounds that may be different from those they have experienced in places they might not consider to be a wetland. In a wooded area, look for signs that water has been there although it may be dry when you are there. Look for water marks on trees, debris and leaves caught in bushes or trees above ground level, leaf litter that is soft due to absorption of water from the ground, or plant leaves covered with a film of mud or silt. (A skill that could be developed here is that of recording observations/data: journal entry, essay, photography, drawing/artistic skill.) Remember to have pictures in the classroom if the students can't go out. Having an assortment of pictures of the different types of wetlands is also a good resource.
2. Collect wetlands plants, then dry and press them. Remind students to record where and when they collected the plants for possible future reference.
3. Obtain a map of your area and/or the entire state. A regular map will do but a topographic map is best. (You may obtain topographic maps from local marinas or fishing tackle shops or order National Wetlands Inventory maps from USGS/ESIC, 507 National Center, Reston VA 22092 or call 1-888-ASK-USGS.) Have students find the wetland they located in exercise 1, if it is large enough. Look for other areas on the map that, based on the students' and your knowledge of wetland characteristics, might be a wetland (e.g., symbols for swamps are often found on common road maps). If using a topographic map, identify the methods used by cartographers of distinguishing different types of wetlands.
Extension (middle and high school):
4. Identify different types of wetland habitats using a key in the "Wetland Habitats" activity from WOW: The Wonders of Wetlands. (pp 21-23).

Get info about Marymount Manhattan College vocational nurse program, registering for required degree courses, and taking free tests online. Which college degrees give you the best chances of finding employment after graduation? If you complete the vocational nurse program, for example, there are a variety of specializations that may appeal to you, such as medical assisting or occupational rehabilitation. Check with the nursing department for a class list, as well as course registration dates. Due to advances in medical systems, there is a growing skill-shortage of graduates from vocational nurse programs, and nursing professionals in general.
The Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) designation is the first step in becoming a nurse. After Becoming a CNA, you will assist in caring for patients by monitoring vital statistics, bathing, feeding and maintaining personal hygiene. Most CNA programs can be completed within a few months, allowing you to begin working. As the public ages, nursing care has become a major source of employment for new technical program graduates.
The next step in a nursing career is to become a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) or a Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN). This is a one year long program, in which you'll work under an RN, and be assigned advanced care work. Practice requirements for LPNs vary from state to state, but basic duties include passing meds, wound care, and administering feeding tubes. 1-year nursing certificate programs train students to pass the licensing test, in order to become an LPN or LVN. It is common for 90% or more of the class to find nursing jobs within 6 months. You don't have to become a registered nurse to make good money, as a licensed practical nurse with several years of work experience can earn well over $40,000 a year.

Sequoia Healthcare District Website
John J. "Jack" Hickey
"It's time to let voters decide the legitimacy issue."
A Real Choice in Sequoia Hospital District Election
November 8, 2016
results are in and they are not good. Incumbents Kane and Griffin were
An autopsy will be performed when the Final
Statement of the Vote is issued later this month.
Failure to gain control of the Board of Directors limits my ability to engage other affected agencies in a dialogue addressing the "transitional" status of the Sequoia and Peninsula Healthcare Districts. It is my intent to have these agencies join in a petition to LAFCo seeking an election to resolve the issue. The "status quo" is not an option. The two districts must be consolidated and expanded to include all of San Mateo county, OR they must be dissolved. As a practical matter, funding for the expansion area must come from a share of the existing 1% general property tax as it does for Sequoia and Peninsula. That requires enabling legislation.
At a Roundtable meeting of the Little Hoover Commission in Sacramento on 16 November, 2016, I proposed legislation which would allow such an election. Other participants (there were 17) in that Roundtable discussion included Sequoia Healthcare District CEO Lee Michelson and Board President Art Faro, along with representatives of Association of California Healthcare Districts(2), California Special Districts Association, Alameda LAFCo, Contra Costa LAFCo, CalLAFCo, Assembly Local Government Committee, Senate Government and Finance Committee, Grossmont and Fallbrook HCD's, California Hospital Association(2), Medical Management Systems and District Hospital Leadership Forum.
Harland Harrison website Historical Information Lois Garcia website
The Sequoia Hospital District(alias: Sequoia Healthcare District) is holding an Election for two seats on its five member Board of Directors, currently held by Katie Kane and Kim Grffin.
Main issue: Legitimacy of District's continued operation
Should the District continue to collect property taxes originally assessed to build, operate and maintain Sequoia Hospital, which it no longer owns? Not without voter approval! The San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury questioned the District's use of these taxes for philanthropic purposes never intended by voters.
LAFCo gives Healthcare Districts' a "transitional sphere of influence"
The Local Agency Formation Commission(LAFCo) oversees formation, consolidation and dissolution of special districts. On May 16, 2007, they adopted the following "sphere of influence" for SHD and PHD: "transitional sphere of influence with the potential for expansion to include excluded areas, dissolution and consolidation".
The 2005 Civil Grand Jury said the Sequoia Healthcare District Board should explore the merging of the two agencies as well as the expansion of the districts to include all San Mateo County residents.
Healthcare Districts have a life of their own
Both the Sequoia Healthcare District and the Peninsula Healthcare District have avoided substantive public discourse on their "transitional" status Their PR activities and constituency building grant programs are aimed at sustaining the districts in the face of critical challenges to their legitimacy.
Challengers offer voters a choice
With the entry of Harrison and Garcia, challengers to incumbents Kane and Griffin, voters will have an opportunity to elect two directors who, along with Director Jack Hickey, are committed to bringing the legitimacy issue to the voters.

From a very early age, children learn that words, voice tone, facial expressions and gestures are all part of the messages other people give them. Children learn to express their needs through facial expressions, gestures (such as nodding and pointing) and sounds. The closer they get to school age, the clearer, and more 'adult' like the sounds become.
When children are very young, parents understand their needs from the way they behave. If babies cry, they could be hungry, thirsty, lonely, frightened or in need of a nappy change. As they get a little older, children learn to express their needs through facial expressions, gestures (such as nodding and pointing) and sounds. Between 12-18 months of age, they begin to use words. From a very early age, children also learn to understand other people. They learn that words, voice tone, facial expressions and gestures are all part of the messages other people give them.
Some children do not develop speech as easily as others. Sometimes they do not find it easy to understand the meaning of words or gestures. These problems are examples of communication difficulties. When a child has a communication difficulty, it may be necessary to get help from teachers, speech pathologists and other professionals.
Communication difficulties are more common than you may think: 20% of four year old children have diffuculty learning language.
The word 'communication' is used to talk about how people share information (including their thoughts and feelings). Often when people think about communication, they think about talking and listening. However, people also send information by:
Children will typically be able to say 50 words by the time they reach 2 years. At this age they will start to put short two word sentences together. Language learning increases dramatically and by three years children are using three to four word sentences and can be easily understood by familiar adults. By four years children are communicating in four to five word sentences and can be understood by anyone.
Opportunities to practise talking and listening with adults and other children help children to develop their communication skills.
A communication problem occurs when children have difficulty with:
Communication problems may affect a child's ability to speak (speech disorders/impairments) and/or the ability to understand and use spoken language (language disorders/impairments). Professionals talk about these as expressive and receptive communication difficulties.
A receptive communication problem means that children have trouble understanding (or receiving) the meaning of information being given to them. There may be difficulty with understanding:
Many children with receptive communication problems rely on facial expressions, tone of voice, gestures or body language to understand what they are told. They may also gain understanding from watching other people and from the use of routines.
Children with an expressive communication or language problem have trouble giving (or expressing) information to other people in a way that other people can easily understand. They may have trouble learning and remembering:
Communication problems can sometimes be due to hearing problems.
Babies are offered a hearing screening at birth. Children who are at risk of their hearing changing should have their hearing rechecked. (Have a look at Hearing and hearing loss.) If your child's hearing is at risk of changing or you think that hearing loss may be the cause of your child's communication problems, take your child to see your family doctor for a check of his or her ear health, and for a referral for a hearing check-up.
There are many types of communication difficulties. These include:
Communication problems can be mild, moderate or severe.Your child's support needs will depend on the type of communication problem and how severe or complicated it is.
Parents often want to know why their child is having difficulty learning to understand and/or talk. It can be difficult to pinpoint a particular cause.
In some cases, there are reasons for a child's communication problems that can be related to one or more of the following:
Speech pathologists work to identify which areas of talking and listening need to develop, and help children develop communication skills. Depending on a child's need, a speech pathologist will concentrate on problems with:
Sometimes speech pathologists will work with drinking and eating problems, especially where these affect speech.
They may teach your child how to communicate in other ways (such as using signs) or to use an alternative or augmentative communication device, such as a communication board or computer.
A speech pathologist will talk with parents about their concerns. They will develop programs to improve a child's skills. These programs may be carried out by the speech pathologist or by parents and staff at preschool, childcare or school.
If your child has a communication problem, a speech pathologist may suggest the use of:
This may happen if your child:
Alternative and augmentative communication (AAC) devices help people with speech and language problems to communicate. Not all AAC devices are expensive or highly technological.
Signing is a way to communicate using standard hand movements. When children have speech and/or language problems, signing can help to make their message clear. For children with delayed speech development, signing can:
Courses in basic sign language are often available to parents and teachers.
There is more about this on the Better Health Channel Sign language - Auslan.
There are many different types of communication difficulties. Some children with communication difficulties do not need much extra support to do well in preschool and school. Others need quite a lot.

1. Picture shows what I found with what is the cross member closest to the rear. Should I be concerned the frame maybe out of whack/bent. If so, how does one determine that?
2. How many leaves on standard on the front spring? The current spring has 14.

Re: Few AA related questions
Ambulance's and herse's had rear shocks, (I'm still looking for some) as to the crack I'd say there's probably not much to worry about if it's that far back on the frame but I'd still try to straighten it and weld it up, somebody must have had something bolted up through that giant (extra) hole that was too much for it.
Re: Few AA related questions
Thanks. Yes there was a very large eyebolt that I removed.

Dear Friends,
It's taken a little time for me to "Come back baby, come back" down to earth after the glorious benefit concert held November 6th at Herberger Theater's Center Stage.
Having the incredible group of music legends performing created a wave of love, support and from-the-heart sharing of music. I'm so blessed and thankful for everyone who performed and attended this one-night-only event. We were honored with more than 600 attendees. . . now that's a party!(See photos)
My love and appreciation to Greg Warner and Gregg Field, the music masters who co-produced and directed our music presentation and who, of course, also performed on drums. My brothers in music and life.
Deep gratitude for our sponsors who made the benefit possible. Special thanks to Remington's Restaurant and Lounge at The Scottsdale Plaza Resort and Herberger Theater Center for graciously providing so much support. The tech crew–lighting, sound and staging–all worked their magic for us. Much appreciation, as well, to the generous donors who provided such wonderful auction items...and to the bidders who made the auction a sell-out!
People have been so kind in supporting my wife Sydney and I during this very difficult time in our lives. We've so needed everyone's help. We've so needed every dollar raised.
Many have asked what I'm doing now, and in one word: Therapy. I'm proud to announce I've been accepted to receive services from Arizona State University's Speech and Hearing Clinic for spring semester 2014. Joel Robin continues to provide my music therapy, and I will continue outpatient rehab at St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center.
And the biggest therapeutic boost?!...being able to join in on gigs, making music the best that I can, for now. After months of speech and music therapy, I'm able to sing one song well (Miles Davis' "All Blues"), and although most of these lyrics are one-syllable words, it required hours of effort and concentration. This progress makes me very proud, but much hard work lies ahead.
An important anniversary approaches: December 19, my one-year mark of surviving. Prayers of gratitude for this, and for all the kindness, support, friendship, love and understanding from so many.
December 2013

|The government of Panama confines Colombian refugees who cross into Panama to the Darien, a jungle region on the border. This family are in Puerto Piña, Panama. (Sergi Camera/Jesuit Refugee Service)
|One refugee mother, Maria, sought a way to get her daughter Juanita out of the border town where she had, despite all obstacles, just finished high school. "I need to get my daughter out of this town. She just turned 17 and I'm afraid that if I can't get her to a better place, into a university or higher education, she will fall prey to bad things, bad people," Maria said. Juanita was actually one of the lucky children. Few Colombian refugees have the opportunity to complete a secondary education, and this lack of schooling is one of the factors limiting the ability of the Colombian refugee population to build a better future.
Jesuit Refugee Service accompanies refugees and the displaced in Panama, Venezuela, Ecuador and within Colombia itself. Our offices in these countries provide emergency assistance, legal and psychological services, vocational and rights-based training and general accompaniment and protection to both Colombian refugees and internally displaced Colombians.
Refugee Council USA — a coalition of 26 U.S. non-governmental organizations including Jesuit Refugee Service/USA — sent a delegation of members and a representative of the Canadian Council for Refugees to meet with refugees, NGOs, government officials, and with representatives of the United Nation High Commissioner for Refugees in Panama and Ecuador last November.
This issue of The Refugee Voice is drawn from findings from that trip and several others made by JRS/USA in recent years. Please visit Spotlight on Issues to read the full report.
~ Fr. Michael A. Evans, National Director, Jesuit Refugee Service/USA
(Washington, D.C.) March 23, 2011 — The plight of Colombian refugees and displaced persons is the most persistent humanitarian crisis in the Western Hemisphere; it may also be one of the most ignored in the world. In just the last two decades, the nearly 50-year-long armed conflict among guerillas, paramilitaries and the Colombian armed forces has resulted in the targeted persecution and internal and cross-border displacement of more than five million Colombians.
Panama — From Danger to Despair
The government of Panama confines Colombian refugees who cross into Panama to the Darien, a jungle region on the border. The picturesque setting is not, however, the idyllic refuge among trees and rivers that it appears to be. The Los Angeles Times described the area as "a chaos of deadly snakes, caimans, crocs, narco-traffickers, mercenaries, guerrillas and bandits." It is impassable by car; the only way to get from one village to another is by boat.
In the small Darien town of Jaque, children have no access to secondary education. Health care is minimal, and many children suffer from parasitic diseases. Of the Colombian refugees living in Jaque, 863 are under a special state of confinement imposed on them by the Panamanian government called Temporary Humanitarian Protection (PTH). They are not allowed to leave their village, to work, or to access even the most basic of services.
Most of these refugees fled to Panama ten years ago or more to escape targeted attacks on their villages by guerrillas and paramilitaries. Trapped between these vicious groups, many of the refugees lost loved ones to massacres and were driven from their mineral rich land.
"I am anchored here and can't offer myself, my gifts. I was a jeweler in Colombia and organized a jeweler's association," said Raul, a recent asylum-seeker. Without access to a market, Raul must rely on charitable support for survival.
Helen, a 58 year old woman who has lived in Jaque since 1998, said she has no hope for the future, and says her people live "like slaves" in Panama. They have no access to heath care, food assistance or jobs. Helen's gaunt frame bore witness to her tale of constant hunger and desperation. She simply wants a chance to leave the jungle and find a future for her family. Despite her circumstances she said she prefers life in confinement in Panama to life in Colombia.
"There I lived with the constant nightmare of death. Here I can sleep through the night though I often go hungry," Helen said.
Another woman, Adelina, has a son with a serious kidney condition that requires nightly dialysis treatment at home. She must also send him to Panama City every month for overnight treatment at the hospital. Although Adelina's family is not allowed to move to Panama City, she has permission to travel with him to the city on these occasions. However, she can seldom afford the cost two plane tickets and is forced to send her nine-year-old alone to the city for the treatment.
Her son's condition has caused her to consider returning to Colombia, despite the danger. She fears that continued confinement in the jungle will endanger the life of her son, as it is so far from any medical professional who can help him in any emergency.
"I fear return, after all we lost, of course I fear return, and my husband will not go back, but these are the choices we are forced to make," Adelina said.
Meanwhile, the vast majority of Colombian refugees who do live in Panama City lack any legal status, and like those in the border regions, must subsist without access to legal employment, health care, or education. Many Colombians living in the capital report discrimination and xenophobia, stating that they are often assumed to be drug dealers, prostitutes or guerilla organization members.
Rogelio has been in Panama City for two years but has not yet received refugee status. He has no work permit and no job and has turned to the church for occasional assistance with shelter and food. Like many in similar circumstances, he is deeply depressed by his inability to find a job because he very much wants to support himself.
Documented cases of refoulement — the forced return of a person by the authorities to the country where he or she faces the threat of persecution — raise issues of serious concern. In October 2010, thirty young Colombians who crossed into Panama fleeing FARC guerillas were forcibly repatriated, without even being allowed to enter the asylum adjudication process. Panamanian officials stated that if the group were to make "repeated attempts" to cross the border would this prove their real need for international protection. This statement indicates a fundamental misunderstanding of the basic international refugee protection framework and Panama's obligations under the Refugee Convention.
Refugees in Panama suffer from a restrictive protection environment, a broken asylum system that grants recognition to only 2% of refugee applicants annually, and a lack of durable solutions, such as integration into Panamanian society or resettlement to another country. Highly vulnerable individuals with valid refugee claims including single women, female-headed households, those with chronic medical conditions and persons with disabilities, the frail elderly, and children must endure the consequences of a lack of legal and physical protection.
Ecuador – "Between the Bullet and the Street"
Mateo had been a teacher before fleeing Colombia for Quito, Ecuador. "Our choice is no choice at all. We are caught between the bullet and the street. Both will land you in the coffin," Mateo said of his experience as a homeless and jobless refugee, surviving discrimination and xenophobia in Quito.
The government of Ecuador has taken significant steps to recognize Colombian refugees, address a growing backlog of refugee applicants, improve its outreach to refugee communities, and enshrine a refugee rights framework into domestic law. Nonetheless, many refugees still lack effective access to the most basic rights, and Colombian refugees too often find that their physical security is threatened within Ecuador's borders.
Refugee agencies have assisted in the relocation of several hundred refugees in the last year in response to the threats to their physical security within Ecuador at the hands of Colombian armed groups. Such relocation has not always resolved these security issues; there have been a number of cases in which refugees were targeted by Colombian persecutors after internal relocation in Ecuador.
Sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) is rampant in the border province of Sucumbios. A recent study indicated that 94.5% of refugee women in the province have experienced SGBVin throughout their lives. In 2009 a refugee woman died in police custody. The coroner's first report indicated that the woman was raped and that her skull was fractured. When it became evident that only police had access to her cell, the coroner changed his report and concluded that the woman had 'committed suicide' while in police custody. Three policemen initially accused of the rape and murder were exonerated.
In December 2010 the government of Ecuador launched a campaign to prevent SGBV. Without the support of the judiciary and the cooperation of local governments however, the campaign faces a difficult battle.
The lives of refugee children are also often marred by violence. Refugee parents cite fear of forced recruitment of their children by armed groups as a major concern in border provinces. One refugee mother, Maria, sought a way to get her daughter Juanita out of the border town where she had, despite all obstacles, just finished high school.
"I need to get my daughter out of this town. She just turned 17 and I'm afraid that if I can't get her to a better place, into a university or higher education, she will fall prey to bad things, bad people," Maria said.
Juanita was actually one of the lucky children. Few Colombian refugees have the opportunity to complete a secondary education, and this lack of schooling is one of the factors limiting the ability of the Colombian refugee population to build a better future.
While refugees in small towns face more than their share of hardship, the situation of Afro-Colombians is particularly grim in the capital city of Quito; xenophobic stereotypes result in pervasive discrimination in the urban setting. Tavio, a documented refugee in Quito reported constant harassment and threats by police who have stopped him on multiple occasions.
During one stop, the police removed him from a bus and asked him for his wallet and his documents. The authorities then required him to remove his shoes. "They took my money and made me walk home shoeless," Tavio said.
Emilia, a refugee in Quito, complained of constant job discrimination. "If you are a Colombian woman, you are [believed to be] a prostitute. No one wants you in their house. Not even to clean. The constant rejection has been very hard," she said.
Improved access to employment, housing, healthcare and education are central to ensuring the successful integration of Colombian refugees. To help achieve such access, Jesuit Refugee Service is supporting several refugee and host-community organizations focused on bringing opportunities to the population.
For some Colombian refugees, resettlement to a third country is the only option to achieve adequate protection. Ecuador clearly lacks sufficient capacity and resources to support the growing number of Colombians seeking sanctuary. Ecuador currently ranks second in the world on UNHCR's list of situation where there is a large disparity between resettlement needs and resettlement opportunities.
Recommendations for Action
• The U.S. should raise refugee concerns as a priority issue in diplomatic relations with Panama, advocating for reform of the asylum system and addressing xenophobia in addition to demanding improvements in the protection and assistance provided to vulnerable refugees. U.S. foreign assistance to Panama should be structured so as to encourage refugee protection and development opportunities for both refugee and host communities in need.
• UNHCR should establish a resettlement program for Colombian refugees in Panama and increase its presence in the Darien, as should NGOs and other U.N. agencies, prioritizing access to durable solutions for the 863 people that have Temporary Humanitarian Protection status in the border region.
• UNHCR should ensure that refugee children receive Best Interest Determinations that take into consideration durable solutions, family reunification, and permanency planning in both Panama and Ecuador.
• The U.S. should increase assistance to Ecuador in recognition of its effort to expand the protection space for refugees, and in recognition of the needs it has identified. The U.S. should increase the use of resettlement as a strategic protection tool for Colombian refugees in Ecuador by increasing its own response and by supporting resettlement within the region.
• For those who can safely remain in Ecuador, the U.S. should fund efforts aimed at integrating Colombian refugees into Ecuadorian society, placing special emphasis on livelihoods, housing, education, access to naturalization, and combating xenophobia.
• U.N. agencies and NGOs should expand their presence on the Ecuador-Colombia border to increase protection for refugee and host communities. The UN and U.S. should work with the Ecuadorian government to expand protection for survivors of SGBV by increasing the capacity of local police and prosecutors to respond to cases of SGBV; training security forces about SGBV; and, providing access to safe housing and income generating opportunities for women.

Maybeshewill - Having released their debut LP 'Not For Want Of Trying' only a month earlier, Maybeshewill returned to the UK from their sell-out Japanese tour to find themselves a man down and short of a bassist. Other bands may have taken stock of their achievements thus far and called it a day, but this foursome are used to taking everything that life throws at them. The three remaining members - James Collins (drums) John Helps (guitar) and Robin Southby (guitar) were joined by Victoria Sztuka (bass) and immediately began work writing and self-recording the pair of tracks which make up their half of this record in their usual DIY style.
'This Time Last Year' and 'Last Time This Year' mark the end of an era for Maybeshewill. Having toured the world promoting a record they were never entirely happy with, but which received wide-spread critical acclaim, they want to draw a line under their past efforts and make headway with new material. These two tracks are intentionally heavier than previous efforts, and although they are the culmination of the bands three years of making music together, they're not necessarily an indication of things to come
Her Name Is Calla - 'Condor & River' is the title of the 17-minute opus by Her Name is Calla. Originally self-released by the band in 2007 and hand-packaged in corrugated cardboard, it sold out quickly and was very well received by the media and fans alike. A much sought after collector's item, the original recording is now re-released onto vinyl through Field records as a split with the bands friends, Maybeshewill.
Following on from the success of the bands recent mini album, 'The Heritage', 'Condor and River' is available during the interim before Her Name is Calla's full length debut due in 2009.
Nothing ever seems to pan out simply for Maybeshewill. Given the troubles that befell that band prior to the release of their debut album Not for Want of Trying, the Leicester-based outfit returned from their recent hotly-anticipated sell-out Japanese tour a man down. So, just when you think Maybeshewill might have finally run out of gas, what do they go and do?
Yep, they come up with two of their finest offerings yet, the gloriously life-affirming 'This Time Last Year' and 'Last Time This Year'. But this split release is far from all about Maybeshewill. While lesser bands would have been overshadowed by two such magnificent offerings, Her Name Is Calla are another band making waves thanks to their stunning mini-album The Heritage. Originally self-released back in 2007, 17-minute opus 'Condor & River' is about as ambitious and epic a track as you're likely to hear for some time, thrillingly taking off at the five minute mark before veering in all manner of intriguing directions.
Right now Maybeshewill and Her Name Is Calla are two of the country's best kept secrets. This split 12" should ensure that changes matters sooner rather than later.
It must be Christmas come early. Two Leicester bands, who between them are responsible for two of the most promising releases of 2008, coming together to give us half an hour of instrumental joy Maybeshewill, 'fresh' from releasing their debut album (Not For Want Of Trying), jaunting off to Japan, losing and gaining a bassist, and now currently in the middle of a tour with Northern Ireland's finest, …And So I Watch You From Afar, have somehow found time to write and self-record (as always) two tracks for this split single.
Because of the short time between the release of NFWOT and writing this pair, you may expect them to be quite similar to their album. Well, you wouldn't be wrong…you just wouldn't be right, either. While just as melodic, they are considerably heavier - certainly not a bad thing. They share enough with the band's past output to be instantly recognisable, but they just wouldn't sit comfortably alongside anything on their previous releases, except possibly the title track on their LP. Track 1, 'This Time Last Year', has some similarities to that, such as the heavy intro ultimately giving way to a pool of calm guitar. There's even a film sample in there, this time from I ♥ Huckabees. Their second track, cunningly titled 'Last Time This Year', moves further from the ground the band occupied with their earlier work. Interestingly they seem to have used this release as a way to set aside what has come before and strike out for musical pastures new. And the future looks good.
'Condor & River', Her Name Is Calla's contribution to this split, was originally self-released by the band in July last year as a two track EP to a good critical reception. It is a fine example of Calla's craft, with expertly constructed dynamics allowing the first half of the track (i.e. the first track) to continuously flow into the listener's mind, slowly building in the intro before a sense of urgency infiltrates, propelling it onwards towards a brutal guitar assault before winding down to a conclusion. The briefest of brief pauses announces the second half, again starting gently and continuing in a very similar vein to the first track.
This one is Calla doing what they do best, though, soothing the listener from start to end, every chord and every lyric measured for purpose. You could read into this as much or as little as you like, even contradictory concepts - hope accompanies despair; dark side by side with light. Calla are shortly to go on hiatus for some time, so the release of their debut album will now be even longer-awaited. In the meantime, however, this is a fantastic piece of music to leave us with.
Maybeshewill / Her Name is Calla 'split' (field). A killer head to head it should be said featuring as the accompanying press release rightly notes 'two of the most original bands in Britain at this moment'. this titanic twinning showcases the individual talents of Maybeshewill and Her Name is Calla spread across three tracks (the former getting two bites the latter being represented by a solitary affair) all pressed on twelve impending inches of wax. I think I'm fairly safe in saying that we haven't had the pleasure of Maybeshewill featuring previously in these pages and for that we are mightily embarrassed. Already the proud parents of a recently released debut full length in the shape of 'not for want of trying' (a copy of which we'll have to nail before we get any older) both 'this time last year' and 'last time this year' are newly recorded tracks specially commissioned for this release and marks in some respects a new dawn for Maybeshewill following the departure of their bassist following a recent Japanese tour and the in-band dissatisfaction with the aforementioned album. Availing themselves with two momentously contrasting cuts a kind of becoming bad cop good cop routine if you like the tempestuous 'this time last year' is an unflinchingly brutal powerhouse of a cut, a ravaging feast of looming large grizzled doom struck tension interspersed by moments of sedately drawn twinkling clarity caught amid torrential downpours of blistering cranium crunching eruptions, both brooding and bracing it provides a seismic late 90's Constellation styled apocalyptic halfway house between San Lorenzo and godspeed you black emperor. Located amid the more gritted and intensely burnt dream woven moments of the post rock cosmos 'last time this year' finds itself bathed in a searing symphony of sky piercing fury decoded with ad hoc angulated time signatures though scratch away at the surface brittleness and you'll be endeared by the weaves of beautifully optimistic underlays of sweetly calibrated softly euphoric key canters. A bit of a gem if you ask me. Of course Her Name is Calla should be familiar to the most casual visitors of these pages given that we've been on their case from pretty much day one. A plethora of limited self released outings under their collective belts, these days they've settled down and found a loving home courtesy of Gizeh records in the meantime releasing upon the nation a frankly immense debut mini album entitled 'the heritage' - itself serving as a taking stock stop gap while they nail down what will be their official full length ('The Quiet Lamb') due to hit the streets early next year. 'Condor and River' initially found its way into the record collections of a select but in tuned cognoscenti last year when it was released through Gizeh's nursery label Loom in limited quantities of hand crafted packaging (see missive 124), a brooding though utterly beautiful 17 minute epic that perfectly frames their now trademark slow / fast - loud / quiet dynamic to its full turbulent potential. As previously noted imagine Floyd covering something in the vein of Young's 'Cortez the Killer' with a battle scarred and abandoned of hope Thom Yorke applying the hurtful pressure points leaving Roy Montgomery to navigate and weave the attending colossal pieces into a glorious storm ravaged and emotionally consuming aural tableaux - between the three interloping movements within (the storm coming / the storm itself and the calm after the storm as were) you're dragged literally through a range of moods though it's the church like stillness and neutered elegance that takes prominence from 8 minutes in that literally serves to clout the living daylights out of you and have you breathlessly humbled at its hollowed beauty. A tragically tormented tearjerker if ever we heard one.
MAYBESHEWILL / HER NAME IS CALLA – split single (Field) – Two tracks from Maybeshewill and one from Her Name... Maybeshewill are starting to evolve, their 65Days style glitchy post rock is starting to take on a character and the ambition that was maybe missing in previous times. Still very much an established post-rock style and an Explosions/65Days thing and still very much that nice euphoric thing, just something a little more developing now. Her Name Is Calla's contribution is their expressive mood-switching seventeen minute epic Condor & River – a moody emotional slowly uncoiling tour de force of a piece that really is something to behold.

It's no secret that I love Jamaica. I love the people. I love the culture. I love the food.
The song Alright OK! was inspired during a time now known as the Tivoli Garden Massacre. Sometimes Kops are Robbers and Robbers are Kops but at the end of the day people have to cool their heads and realize we need to put down this violence and pull up your light to the music & life...yuh zeet? For the full description of the song, lyrics, and inspiration download the press release HERE
I called up the homey Fred E Fame to fly down to Kingston Jamaica to shoot this video - guerilla styles, one man and a camera moving with me around yard. He had never to Jamrock and I had to show him a proper time. You know how the thing set. In this time, I got to know Fred E as one of the most hard working, passionate and inspiring people I've known out of Toronto City. The dude got up at the break of dawn to catch the sun rise, ran around the streets of Kingston all day, partied with us as night and up sipping Sorel parlaying with the peoples by the time I woke the next day. He took a chance, trusted me to fly somewhere he had never been and embark on an adventure. Boom! Fred E Fame - you're one of a kind and I salute you sir.
A Don in 3 Mile had agreed to throw me a party in honor of the video shoot. I had made a pact with dancer Karmella Badness when she showed up at the end of Return of the Bgirl video shoot that we would do a video together one day. Homegirl heard I was doing this in Jamrock and just rolled. That's right kids...she just rolled and did her thing cause that's how BADNESS MOVES!
Special thanks to Daniel Tucker Car Service for taking us where ever we needed to roll, Cash Money for holding it down on the production end, Mr. Lincoln for his hospitality and all the amazing people that I met along the way in JA that inspire me creating music and just living life.
Below I included some flicks from the video shoot and our journeys around JA. If you dig what you see, please support the thing by purchasing the single and spreading the link. BOOTLEG CULTURE LP on the rise.
Before Fred E arrived I was chillin' Back-a-Bush styles.
On the road to Kingston
First stop to see the BOSS at Bob Marley Museum in Kingston, JA
Great inspirations. Great Aspirations.

There has been a growing outcry over demands from conservative groups like KeepAmericaSafe.com and from Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, for the names of all lawyers working for the Obama administration who "once represented or advocated on behalf of . . . terrorist detainees." Many conservatives have spoken against these attacks as contrary to the American legal principle that even unpopular defendants deserve a lawyer. But what hasn't been pointed out is that if these conservative folks really care about keeping America safe, they are barking up the wrong tree.
I am one of the lawyers who represent a Gitmo detainee. Like the other Gitmo lawyers, I volunteer my time and money, not because I sympathize with terrorists, but because I don't believe any government should have the power to indefinitely detain a person without charging him with a crime. I also believe in a basic principle of law (which this country used to follow) that merely calling someone a terrorist doesn't make him one.

Indigenous doctors from throughout the Pacific are currently meeting during the Pacific Region Indigenous Doctors Congress (PRIDoC) at Whistler, Canada home to the Squamish and Lil'wat First Nations. Born from the vision of a forum for mutual support and for the sharing of resources and expertise delegates are coming together to learn and teach one another.
Underlying factors behind indigenous consistently poor health are discussed, success stories are shared in which e.g. culture is described as a societal anxiety buffer and mechanism to handle stress.
What is emphasized throughout the sessions is the clear message that health is key to indigenous survival. Mainstream health services do not recognize the impacts of colonization and ongoing racism on indigenous health. Nor do they provide culturally appropriate care. A Canadian health worker comments: "What is urgently needed are much more indigenous doctors- not doctors who happen to be indigenous."
The library is dedicated to the memory of Secwepemc Chief George Manuel (1921-1989), to the nations of the Fourth World and to the elders and generations to come.access here

Innovation & Research
Jenna Luek '10 and her research share the perfect chemistry
When Jenna Luek first entered Chatham as a freshman she set her sights on a major in chemistry with a minor in French. However, she soon changed her minor to environmental studies after taking an introductory course in environmental science.
When it came to developing her tutorial research project, Jenna Luek thought that procrastinating until her senior year would not be beneficial. So she decided to start two years earlier than most, during her sophomore year.
She chose a tutorial topic that not only interested her but has shaped her future. Jenna worked with the Virginia Institute of Marine Science on "Persistent Organic Pollutants in the Atlantic and Southern Oceans and Oceanic Atmosphere," where she analyzed air and water sampled by collaborators at the Virginia Institute of Marine Science from the Atlantic Ocean and the Southern Ocean (the water around Antarctica).
By the time she reached her senior year, ready to defend her tutorial, she was recognized for her studies when Dr. Falconer told Jenna that she had received the Iota Sigma Pi Award for Excellence in Chemistry. This award is given to only one woman a year and "almost always given to a women who attends a large chemistry power-house school" making Jenna's achievement even sweeter.
After graduating Chatham this spring, Jenna chose to attend the Virginia Institute of Marine Science at the College of William and Mary where she plans to earn her Ph.D. in chemical oceanography. She was inspired by her passion for the environment and the experience she obtained while working on her tutorial.
There, she will be continuing work with Dr. Rebecca Dickhut, who was the professor who worked with her on her tutorial research in concert with Chatham tutorial advisor Renee Falconer. Dr. Falconer has very high hopes for Jenna and her research, saying that, "She did such a great job (the summer of 2008) that Dr. Dickhut asked if she could continue the work at Chatham over the school year. She then went back to VIMS this past summer and finished the analysis of the samples. She is currently working on a publication that will be submitted in the next couple of months. Jenna is definitely a top notch student researcher already and will do great things in graduate school – she is planning on attending VIMS and has already written proposals to both EPA and NSF for funding for her research while there. She will make a great environmental chemistry researcher someday and I hope to continue our collaboration for years to come."
Jenna has also been chosen to travel to Antarctica's Palmer Station, a research base, this fall where she will be collecting a variety of air, seawater, and ice samples. These samples will help continue her research from her tutorial with Dr. Dickhut about organic pollutants in the arctic region.
After graduate school Jenna plans on diving deeper into her research, possibly abroad, and then hopes to become a faculty member at an undergraduate institution and teach chemistry. "I want to spend my time balancing research and teaching. Research will help keep me up to date in the field and hopefully will be able to provide me with insight which I can pass on to the students."
