A New Era of Human Rights Advocacy
In our globalized world – where a single trip to the gas pump or supermarket is also an ethical decision which reveals our concern (or lack thereof) for the welfare of individuals and environments in other countries – it is readily apparent why we would need a global moral code to help guide our actions and their far-reaching repercussions. In 1948 representatives from member countries of the United Nations General Assembly gathered in Paris to draft the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, a document which aims to take into consideration the differences in culture and values that distinguish us while emphasizing those fundamental rights that apply to all human beings regardless of gender, nationality, race, or religion.
Of course, it is not without its critics, but in the sixty brief years since its drafting, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights has become the most translated document in the world, has formed the basis of international law, and has given rise to a multi-billion dollar industry of organizations, institutions, and academic departments that observe and analyze the status of human rights around the world, and advocate on behalf of those whose fundamental human rights have been violated. One of these institutions is the University of California at Berkeley's Human Rights Center, which earlier this month convened a conference to bring together leading technologists and human rights advocates in order to "share best practices and develop new strategies for incorporating technology to address human rights abuses." In addition to the main event in Berkeley, California, there was also a parallel event with live presenters in New York City, and remote viewing hubs where participants contributed via chat and Twitter from Colombia and Egypt.
Rising Voices was well represented at the conference. I spoke in Berkeley about how human rights organizations can use citizen media tools to empower communities affected by human rights abuses to tell their own stories, rather than advocating on behalf of those communities as has traditionally been the model of most advocacy organizations. In New York City Lova Rakotomalala of the Foko Madagascar project explained how Malagasy bloggers used new media tools to report on the human rights violations which took place during the recent presidential coup, as well as to give context to the heated conflict for outside observers who might not know much about Madagascar other than what they have seen in Disney movies. In the small community library of San Javier La Loma, Colombia the participants of HiperBarrio – a citizen media project that just won a Prix Award for best digital community – gathered to view the live stream of the Berkeley conference and continue the discussion about human rights with local students.
Sharing his thoughts about the New York City Human Rights barcamp with the rest of the Foko community, Lova Rakotomalala writes:
As you know, Foko's primary mission is to document the everyday lives of Malagasy citizens and local agents of environmental change, not record potential human rights violations by their government. Yet, the ongoing crisis decided otherwise for the time being. The hub was a great opportunity to meet and learn first hand from Human Rights activists present at the event.
The presentation went over the background of the crisis, the known human rights violations that were documented since January 09, the use of new media by tools by the dynamic new media users' community in Madagascar (both related and non-related to Foko) and the obstacles for more extensive reporting of current events. We also posit that among all the past and current human rights violations in Madagascar (military repression, limited freedom of speech, arrest etc..) the most glaring offense in our opinion is the 400,000 people (mostly children) currently at risk of hunger in the South because the political deadlock prevents an effective response.
The slides from Lova's presentation are available on Slideshare:
On the outskirts of Medellín the citizen media project HiperBarrio invited students from the neighboring school to sit and watch the live transmission.
San Javier La Loma librarian and HiperBarrio project coordinator Gabriel Vanegas describing the purpose of the conference to students from the community's school.
Catalina Restrepo later described the events of the day on the project's group blog:
At one in the afternoon, the students from the "Educational Institution Loma Hermosa" arrived at the library. The objective was to watch the conference "The Soul of the New Machine", but the language barrier made it difficult to keep their attention.
Because of this, Gabriel Jaime decided to speak to them a little about human rights, the French Revolution, and about our project.
The different groups of students arrived at intervals. Some were more attentive than others, but they were all witnesses to an event that discussed topics very close to the hard realities that our community lived and continues to live. Here we still haven't seen any process of justice, truth and reconciliation. The victims cry to their relatives in silence and some of the perpetrators pass through the streets of the neighborhood as if nothing happened.
During the last visit of students Professor Álvaro directly interpreted what the speakers of the conference were discussing, such as the importance of databases in gathering information about crimes and massacres in countries like Peru, Guatemala, and Chat, and the enormous challenges facing experts who must organize, protect, and encrypt the data in case the hard drives are stolen.
Despite all the language-related difficulties, the technical language of the experts, and the lack of seating in our small but precious library, the simple fact that a community like our own can take part in a conference of experts discussing the topic of human rights from thousands of kilometers away is a milestone without precedent.
HiperBarrio is, in fact, a perfect example of the new era of human rights advocacy. Before Professor Álvaro Ramírez and Gabriel Vanegas decided to teach young library users from the community how to blog and upload short video documentaries to YouTube, the only online references to San Javier La Loma all came from foreign activist-journalists and human rights organizations eager to portray the violence that took place in the region throughout the 90's, and up to 2003. In his own words, Gabriel Vanegas wanted to rescue the community's history, culture, and idiosyncrasies so that its online representation was more accurate of its offline reality. That is not to say that the project's bloggers haven't covered the violence that affected, and continues to affect, all of their lives; Deneiber Xady has written compellingly about growing up in a near warzone. However, the bloggers of HiperBarrio are also happy to point out all the positive aspects of San Javier La Loma that are often overlooked by outsiders and residents alike.
Some human rights organizations have already realized that they can better serve a community by training its residents how to tell their own stories online, rather than speaking on their behalf. The Jesuit Refugee Service in collaboration with Ancla 2, for example, has trained a group of youth who have been affected by violence along the Venezuela-Colombia border how to publish photos and stories to a group blog. Similarly, Panos London worked with the African HIV Policy Network last autumn to teach HIV-positive immigrants living in London how to produce their own videos. Open Society Institute's support of Rising Voices health-related grantees have enabled bloggers like Pavel Kutsev to describe first-hand what life is like in a community that most of us choose to ignore, such as injection drug users.
Still, the majority of multi-million dollar human rights organizations spend their time and money gathering statistics and publishing reports without ever giving the communities they work with a chance to speak for themselves. There is a long road ahead, but we seem to be on the right path.

In working class neighborhoods of Medellin Human Rights issues are not much a matter of discussion, because the perpetrators of past crimes can walk up and down the streets intimidating their neighbor victms into silence.
Some can be done in these communities with a good hand of professional qualified lawyers, social workers, and psychologists. But it is not an easy task to initiate the process of true and reconciliation.
Let us hope that we can find the means and the team needed to cure the wounds of old crimes, before the ones that are starting to show up escalate out of proportion. A quiet tension was the state of affairs in Medellin up to the lasts 3 months when new drug lords and deales have began to launch a new war to extend their violent territorial influence and the power to control the population.

Hi David, I'm thinking in this post, I feel very happy, you make me remember the event "The soul of the new machine" and I can confirm all that I've said in my last post.
I invite you to read http://cambiojuvenil.wordpress.com/2009/05/30/debe-ser-ituango-sinonimo-de-violencia/ It talks (too) about human advocacy.
Now, La Loma (heaven, people, panoramic views…), all the pictures tha I've uploaded in flickr and panoramio and geopositioning are in google earth, I'm in the house of my neighbor and I'm looking it with this program, she can look her house and her people in internet.
I think that everything is achieved through small steps, small details that together produce a significant change in society.

I am a make-up addict through and through, so it's fair to say I have tried and tested a massive amount of mascaras that are sold in the UK. Imagine, my sheer surprise when I discovered that one of the best I have ever used on my lashes cost just £3.
What's this tube of wonder called? Essence Lash Princess Sculpted Volume Mascara and it's a steal at just £3. It's no wonder it frequently bobs in and out at Wilko. That's right, it doesn't come from some luxe brand cosmetics counter, but from the make-up aisle in good ol' Wilkos.
The Essence Lash Princess Sculpted Volume Mascara promises to give you dramatic volume and defined lashes. Does it delivered? Hell yeah, it does!
Right from one swipe, you'll wonder where that extra volume and length came from. I think the brush is the key and as it's tapered, you can get to every single lash on your eye.
I've shunned my usual Clinique High Impact Mascara now in favour of this £3 marvel instead.
There are another two mascaras in the Essence Lash Princess range (£3.30 each), that are well worth a try too - Essence False Lash Effect Mascara Princess Black* and Essence Lash Princess Volume Mascara*.
It gives you panda eyes 2 hours in.
I started using this (Green & Black bottle though) when it was voted one of the top mascaras by Glamour Magazine. I used to use Urban Decay/CharlotteTilbury this is SO much better and it lasts all day and evening!

Edward Irving's Incarnational Christology, Part 1
| September 24, 2018 | no comments
It is somewhat remarkable that theological discussion over Irving's views has long outlasted his ability to participate in debate. Many varied opinions of respected theologians continue to give attention to Irving, regardless of what conclusion is reached over the orthodoxy of his views. Incarnational issues such as this one seem to remain a significant part of Christological discussion in this generation, as with any other. Irving's longevity in this particular debate suggests that he is a worthy theological figure whose views have come to present a considerable, sustained significance within contemporary scholarship. Hence, his theological contribution should not be frivolously dismissed. Therefore, the following chapter presents the foundational elements of Irving's views in order to then determine their significance within his historical context.
Coming in Part 2 (Fall 2018):
The Crux of Irving's Christology
[1] John 1:14 (NIV)
[2] John 1:14 (NLT)
[3] Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:23
[4] J.D.G. Dunn, Christology in the Making, London: SCM Press, 1980. For a review article on this book, see: L. Morris, "The emergence of the doctrine of the incarnation" in Themelios (1982) 8.1:15-19
[5] Much theological development within the early church was focused on Christological/Incarnational questions. The formulation of various foundational creedal statements, such as The Apostle's Creed, The Nicaean Creed (325 AD) and the Chalcedonian Definition (451 AD), are evidence of the response to refute beliefs that were found to be heretical.
[6] J. Hick (ed.), The Myth of God Incarnate, London: SCM Press, 1977; M.D. Goulder (ed.), Incarnation and Myth: The Debate Continued, London: SCM Press, 1979; O. Skarsaune, (trans) T.R. Skarsten, Incarnation: Myth or Fact?, St Louis (MO): Concordia Publishing House, 1991
[7] B. Hebblethwaite, "Incarnation" in D.W. Musser & J.L. Price (eds), A New Handbook of Christian Theology, Nashville: Abingdon Press, 1992:250-4
[8] Cited in T.C. Gordon, "Edward Irving 1792-1834", in R.S. Wright (ed), Fathers of the Kirk, London: Oxford University Press, 1960:142. Gordon here quotes the inscription engraved on a stone tablet near the Old Fish Cross of Annan marking the birth town of Edward Irving. This monument no longer stands near this site. Instead, there is an impressive statue of Irving which today stands on the site of the very church that condemned him for heresy and stripped him of his ministerial status. These tributes to him are ironic since it was the attitudes of his enemies that were influential in his downfall.
[9] For literature adequate for this purpose, see: W. Jones, Biographical Sketch of the Rev. Edward Irving, Late Minister of the National Scotch Church, London: With extracts from, and remarks on, his principal publications, London: John Bennet, 1835; M.O.W. Oliphant, The Life of Edward Irving Vols. 1, 2, London: Hurst & Blackett Publishers, 1862.

Moon Over Miami – A Lingering Vacation
The movie presents a fantasy of what it might be like to leave your lousy job and travel to an exotic place where everybody is having fun. At that time, just before the war, most Americans never traveled even 50 miles from home, so one can imagine films were the closest a lot of folks came to a pleasure trip.
Moon Over Miami (1941) arrived in the last few months before Pearl Harbor changed America forever and while World War II had, for nearly two years, been destroying the lives of millions overseas. We were on the edge of that darkness, but everything was okay in Betty Grable's world. We were like vacationers lingering over those last few moments on the beach. Our car is packed and we're ready to head back to our regular lives – but we need one last look at the ocean, one last deep sniff of the salt air to sustain us.
Betty Grable and Carole Landis play sisters, waitresses in a Texas roadside drive-in restaurant, in this Technicolor film that opens with a sprightly song. They are carhops in cowgirl suits. Betty wants to give up this life of milkshakes and burgers to drive to Miami, where she believes she will meet a millionaire at a resort and become his wife. I don't know what tourist brochure told her that would happen, but she's convinced she's got a shot. If Shakespeare had thought of opening a play like that, he would have done it. It just probably never occurred to him.
Charlotte Greenwood, reliably funny and dear, is their aunt who slings hash in the kitchen. The three of them dream of marrying rich men, and so they take off to Miami to hunt for some. Don Ameche and Robert Cummings, boyhood rivals, are the rich fellows. Since the girls do not want to appear as gold diggers, and because they have very little money between them, Betty gets to pretend to be a wealthy heiress to attract beaus, while Carole plays her secretary. Carole wears unflattering glasses because she is not supposed to outshine Betty, and because secretaries always wear unflattering glasses. It's kind of a rule in Hollywood. No offense to you secretaries.
Charlotte Greenwood gets to be the maid. Dear, lanky Miss Greenwood had the most eloquent posture in Hollywood — with amazing flexibility and extension of her long limbs, she can make her point or just get a laugh by standing or leaning or taking a deep breath.
Both the dapper, young, white-dinner-jacketed rich fellows chase after Betty with her deep-red lipstick and her blonde hair pulled off her face in that impossible, and painful-looking upsweep.
There couldn't have been any lacquer shortage in Hollywood during the war. With a pattern of giant stars on her dress and a giant bow in her hair, she is a walking exclamation point.
Cummings is the goofier, more hapless millionaire's son, and Ameche is the more suave and savvy. We know who's going to end up with Betty when we hear Mr. Cummings sing. He lumbers on bravely, but it's a good thing he's rich because he'll never make any money singing.
However, Ameche's smooth, gentle tenor is always a surprising contrast to his rather gravely speaking voice. He could be the last man in Hollywood sporting a pencil-thin mustache at this period, which was so popular during the Great Depression.
After some trickery and water sports shot on location in Ocala and Cypress Gardens in Florida to give the film a hint of travelogue, each girl walks away with her rich fellow, though Miss Greenwood is improbably paired with hotel barman Jack Haley. Miss Grable comes off as a bit of a petulant heel and a spoiled brat, but it's her movie.
Frank and Harry Condos are the pair of specialty dancers who flank Betty Grable in a couple of numbers, and take the lead themselves in the "Seminole" number where a huge troupe of dancers dressed in patterns emulating the traditional clothing of Seminole Indians takes off in a colorful, somewhat stereotyped tribute to something sort of Florida-ish.
It's a frothy vacation with glimpses of Florida in an era when location shooting was not common. We have a peek at Betty Grable in a white bathing suit, a precursor to her famous image as a war pinup. The movie presents a fantasy of what it might be like to leave your lousy job and travel to an exotic place where everybody is having fun. At that time, just before the war, most Americans never traveled even 50 miles from home, so one can imagine films were the closest a lot of folks came to a pleasure trip. The vacation only lasts 90 minutes, but you can't beat the price.

Nick's Nature Notes: Are Snowdrops whiter than white?
Are Snowdrops whiter than white?
In recent winters, Snowdrops (Galanthus nivalis) have been as close as we have come to snow in the lowland gardens of Britain. In the wood at the Pinfold at this time of year, they carpet the banks with their white hanging lanterns, bringing a lightness back from the brown sludge of leaf decay. Look closer though at this early flowering plant and you will see what look like two sets of petals of differing size. These are in fact 'tepals' and the Snowdrop has three larger outer ones and three smaller inner ones. Tepal is a term used where the sepals (usually the green and leaf like outer part of flowers providing protection) resemble petals (usually the colourful part of flower). Look closer still and you will notice what look like green brush strokes on the tepals. It has been assumed that these markings act as nectar guides for insects which then incidently act as pollinators. However more recent research by Aschan and Pfanz (*) have shown that they also provide a potentially important additional area for photosynthesis. With relativeley small and late emergent leaves, these photosynthetic 'patches' assist in local production of nectar to attract insects and later with seed production. This would seem to offset some of the high energy costs of the plant devoted to reproductive structures; a bit like solar panels on a house contributing to the homes energy balance.
So next time you see a Snowdrop, bend down and have a closer look!

Campfire Monster Creation
During a race to get back to camp first, a pair of teens stumbled upon a paper cube that grows a monster.
The story I am about to tell you happened on a starry October night at a place called Lake Thunderbird. Some of the locals referred to it as Lake Dirtybird on the count of the lake being murky from the clay soil. Still, it was a beautiful and beloved state park. Many of the trees were still green as Mabry and Heide raced passed them along the dirt trail. Earlier, the two had made a bet that the first one to the campfire would get the loser's s'more.
"That s'more as good as mine," Heide shouted from the lead.
"Don't count your desserts just yet," Mabry snapped back as she went off trail to get ahead.
Mabry's shortcut did work. She did surpass Heide – until she tripped. Mabry cursed, causing her friend to stop.
Heide stopped and helped Mabry get back on her feet. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine," Mabry groaned. "Let's call the race a tie."
Heide laughed. "Only because I'll feel bad eating your s'more. What did you trip on anyway?"
Mabry shrugged and pulled out her cellphone from her jeans. Using the flashlight feature, she scanned the area and found a cube of newspaper about the size of a baseball. The cube was densely packed. She picked it up.
"This is heavier than it looks," Mabry commented.
"Really?" Heide questioned. Mabry handed her the cube. "Wow. This is heavy. Do you think it'll burn?"
"Maybe. We can put it in the fire and find out."
Heide tossed the cube back to Mabry, and the two walked back to the campsite where they joined their fellow students around the fire. The intimate group of teenagers were united for a weekend improv retreat. Standing together facing the teens were two of the "camp counselors" or improv teachers, Jessie and Nick, both in their mid-30s. As part of their improv troupe wardrobe bit, they wore matching short black ties and black fedoras.
"Heide, Mabry, so glad you're finally here," Jessie said in a cheerful team mascot tone. "We got plenty of marshmallows and chocolates still."
Nick noticed the dirt scuffle on Mabry's clothes. "Everything okay?"
"Yeah, I tripped over this," Mabry explained as she held out the paper cube. "Thought we could add it to the fire."
"Go for it," Nick encouraged, and Mabry tossed it in.
Jessie clapped her hands, getting the group's attention. "While everyone enjoys dessert, let's play an icebreaker game where we each reveal something that scares us. We'll go clockwise, and I'll start first. I'm Jessie, and I'm afraid of ostriches."
Jessie's reveal garnered some giggles in the crowd.
Nick went next, holding a flashlight under his face. "Reverse Vampires. They crave sunlight! Also, Land Sharks."
"Disease," Mabry somberly answered, thinking of all the family she's lost to sicknesses.
"Being burned alive," Heide said as her marshmallow caught on fire from her impatience.
Robyn pushed aside a streak of her white hair. "Being Followed."
"Robyn, you're like a black belt," Jessie commented. "People should be worried about you following them. Michael, your turn."
Michael adjusted his metal glasses and stumbled to confess, "Drowning."
"Asphyxiation!" Shai jumped with an unexpected burst of excitement, eager to share.
The last person, Jeff, took a deep breath and, with a serious face, answered, "Sandpaper."
The group laughed.
"What?" Jeff huffed. "It's a texture thing."
"Okay, okay," Nick instructed, "let's play another–"
The crackling fire collapsed into itself. The group went silent as they watched the paper cube pulsate with a rainbow of colors. The cube began to expand, like one of those black snake fireworks that grow when lit on fire. Then, it ramped up in speed, growing and forming an ash black ostrich with a shark's dorsal fin on its neck and pectoral fins instead of wings. A green sewage cloud of disease-ridden gas seeped out of its mouth.
The creature let out a terrifying screech. The campers scattered every which direction as it whipped out its monstrously long tongue around Jeff's body and Shai's neck. The tongue was rough like sandpaper. Jeff and Shai pulled, clawed, and fought back. In retaliation, the creature flung them into a tent.
The creature spotted Heide running down a trail by herself. It spat out a fireball, catching Heide on fire. While Heide rolled around on the ground, the creature scurried down another path.
"What the hell is that?" Robyn asked Mabry as they and Michael ran as fast as they could.
"Like hell, if I know," Mabry snapped back.
"It's like an amalgamation of our fears," Michael commented, struggling to keep up.
Robyn turned her head back. "It's following us!"
"Just keep running," Mabry encouraged.
The trio burst out of the woods, leaving them nowhere else to run with the lake before them.
"Great," Michael grumbled.
Mabry pointed across the lake. "Let's swim to the other side. It's not a long stretch. Maybe it can't swim."
"But who knows what's in that lake," Michael exclaimed. "There could be alligator snapping turtles."
"It's either that or face the monster," Mabry laid out.
The creature screeched, prompting the three of them to jump and swim, with Mabry leading the charge. The teens were halfway across when the beast arrived at the shore. The creature paused as a powerful beam of light from a park ranger's flashlight shined on it. The monster hissed and charged at the park ranger.
Mabry was the first one across. She watched as the park ranger firmly stand his ground as the monster lunged at him. The park ranger opened fire, his gun emitting an icy blue beam. The creature burst into a puff of smoke.
Before Mabry could process what she witnessed, her fellow campers walked out the water only to be greeted with the light of another park ranger. She had buzzcut hair, black skin, and was short, at about five-feet tall, but stood with a calm authority that made her appear taller. The name patch on her green uniform shirt read, "Ranger Mists."
"Are you all okay?" Mists asked, concerned.
"This–this land shark ostrich monster is chasing us," Michael blurted out with no regard for how crazy he sounded.
Mists pointed her flashlight at the park ranger across the lake. He gave her a thumbs up. She shined the light back at the teens. "You're safe now. My partner took care of it. Where did you first see it?"
"I found this weird cube of paper that I tossed in our fire, and it grew from that," Mabry explained to the ranger.
"Where's the rest of your group?"
"At the Post Oak campground," Mabry said. She started to feel uncomfortable with how comfortable Mists was with believing them. Does she really believe all of this? she thought.
"We're part of an improv retreat," Robyn added in a panic. "There's us plus our teachers, Nick and Jessie, and then Heide, Jeff, and Shai. You got to help them. They're all probably hurt."
Mists put her hand on Robyn's shoulder to reassure her. "Don't worry. We'll help them, and then this will all just be a bad dream."
The silver bracelet around Mists' wrist that was resting on Robyn's shoulder emitted a calming white aurora that put the teens to sleep.
I made a post on Facebook, "It's my Birthday and I'll kill you off at a summer camp if that's okay with you. Leave a comment with something that scares you." I took the fears they responded with and named a character after them. When writing this story, I wrote with the intent of telling this at a campfire.

Q: 8086 emulator for unix-like OSs? Is there any 8086 emulator (free or paid) for Fedora 17? I am learning assembly language using AT&T style.

A: Here are two 8086 emulators:

*

*i8086emu - A cross-platform emulator
for the Intel 8086 microprocessor. It has support for dynamically loadable
device plugins and some peripherals like a PIT, PIC, 8-segment-displays,
buttons and leds. i8086emu comes with an ncurses and an GTK-2 gui.

*fake86 - An 8086 PC emulator written in
C. It seems to have less device support than i8086emu.

A: There is Bochs kind of oldest virtual machines.
Off-course, you must check Qemu project. It is a mainstream open-source virtual emulator.
You can always nag the thing what you need and make a contribution to the project's core.

A: You can use any hypervisor software.for example:Qemu-kvm,Virtualbox,Xen,Vmware and so on.
    I suggest that  you  use qemu-kvm or virtualbox to launch a virtual machine. Because qemu-kvm and virtualbox are open source hypervisor,and they are easy to use.Virtual box has a good GUI that written by QT. Qemu-KVM has a powerful command line.
   Libvirt is also a good command line to support all hypervisor.Specially support qemu-kvm.
   You can do every things in vm.If your vm crashs,your host will not be affected.

A: PCEm does a great job emulating the full hardware: https://pcem-emulator.co.uk/
if you live in Windows only world then 86box (fork of PCEm) may interest you: https://github.com/86Box/86Box
They do not only emulate the CPU but a whole lot of hardware including voodoo 3dfx etc
check some posts who have played with these: https://virtuallyfun.com/wordpress/category/80386/
and you can check pcem forums to use with Linux https://pcem-emulator.co.uk/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=3155

Pandemic safety the top priority as NJ health care workers' unions enter contract talks
Taken from NorthJersey.com
Lindy Washburn, NorthJersey.com
The COVID pandemic has made safety a top bargaining issue for health care workers as unions representing thousands of employees at New Jersey's hospitals, home care agencies and nursing homes head to the bargaining table this year.
Nurses, nursing assistants, housekeepers and technical health workers are asking through their unions for a bigger role in crafting their employers' plans and preparation for ongoing waves of the COVID pandemic so they can be assured of proper personal protective equipment and notified of employee outbreaks. They also want better quarantine and hazard pay.
Negotiations are underway or will start soon for 11 locals representing 6,000 members of the Health Professionals and Allied Employees union; two locals of JNESO, a hospital and clinical workers' union; and about 4,000 nursing home employees represented by 1199SEIU-United Healthcare Workers East.
Union leaders also say employees of hospitals and nursing homes without unions have expressed "a lot of interest" in labor representation and help with workplace safety concerns. Fewer than half of the state's hospitals and about half of its nursing homes have employee unions.
Health care workers suffer consequences of 'unsafe work environments'
The groundswell of public appreciation has put front-line health workers "in a strong position" when it comes to negotiations this year, said Rebecca Givan, an associate professor at the Rutgers School of Management and Labor Relations. "But, as always, health care employees will fight.
"Health care workers were put in unsafe work environments," she said. "Many got sick and some died. Having a workplace where you have a voice has become a really clear priority."
While the specific issues vary, this year's contract negotiations occur against the backdrop of an ongoing pandemic that has killed more than 3,300 health care workers nationwide, including more than 250 in New Jersey, and sickened thousands more.
Many who worked on the front lines have yet to fully recover from the physical, mental and emotional toll of the pandemic at health care institutions, union leaders said. Some have become COVID long-haulers, suffering such long-term consequences as shortness of breath, loss of smell and taste, brain fog and anxiety.
Executives note revenue losses, don't dismiss issues
Hospital and nursing home executives, for their part, note that the pandemic caused steep downturns in revenue.
Many nursing homes are at risk of closure, their national association says, because of higher expenses and fewer admissions. Emergency room visits dropped 27% and outpatient visits to hospitals in New Jersey dropped by 20% from 2019 to 2020, while expenses increased 10%, according to 3rd quarter data from the New Jersey Hospital Association.
Federal relief funds "[have] not erased the financial strain as hospitals continue to care for patients and play a leading role in vaccinating their staffs and communities," a February report from the hospital association said.
Nevertheless, "We can't simply afford to move on from here," said Debbie White, president of the 11,000-member HPAE. "We have to take those lessons learned from the pandemic… so as not to repeat those mistakes in the future."

This is because the "print status" messages assume that the value will never be 0, and appears to be harmless.
Similarly, if sleepiness is set to 65535, the message "You are faint from lack of water and the spells you've memorized are becoming confused." will periodically appear. This is, as above, the game not expecting the value 65535, and should be harmless.

ASSESSING AND SUPPORTING QUALITY IN THE LIBERAL ARTS: THE ROLE OF THE CHIEF LIBERAL ARTS ACADEMIC OFFICER

Using data from a random sample of chief liberal arts academic officers in American colleges and universities, the authors have examined formal methods for evaluating the liberal arts, resource allocation policies of chief liberal arts academic officers, and factors which influence these evaluations. The liberal arts are defined as the natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities. Data were presented on 14 evaluation factors related to distinct dimensions of department and program excellence. Findings suggest that "resources for excellence" are unevenly distributed among departments. If the educational goal of the 1980s — quality education — is to be met, these inconsistencies in resource allocations must be corrected.

Using literature and related documents, the study reviews and analyzes the global trend of liberal arts education (LAE) resurgence and experimentation in different societies across three continents, East Asia, North America, and Western Europe. The study explores how LAE has been incorporated into different societies, how the variations in each model reflect local traditions and values, and what these adaptations contribute to the new LAE model. Through the angle of new institutional theory, the study focuses specifically on how these local models are impacted by institutional factors, the constraint of market, policy, state, as well as historical figures or organizations. This research with document analysis of global LAE summarizes the innovation and insights to date and calls for further research on LAE through new institutional theory and ideal types. This study builds the foundation for further research exploring the implementation and educational outcomes of LAE in different societies.

Implementing liberal management education through the lens of the other

The purpose of this paper is to explore the prerequisite conditions for implementing a liberal management education and for fostering ethical students using examples from the core curriculum at Singapore Management University (SMU).
Beginning with a reading of the Carnegie Foundation's Rethinking Undergraduate Business Education: liberal learning for the professions (2011), the paper examines the contribution and limits of the findings and recommendations before discussing the place of the liberal arts in the modern university and describing a case study of liberal management education in process at SMU. It concludes with a reading of the work of Emmanuel Levinas and Asian philosophy as the basis for an ethical management education.
The paper uncovers a central shortcoming in an otherwise important Carnegie study: that business education is unlike other professional education because it lacks an autonomous discipline that studies business knowledge production as an object. Consequently, applying the liberal arts to business education risks neglecting the critical side of the liberal arts. With only the reflective side of the liberal arts in operation, management education cannot be grasped as a specific sphere of values within the pluralism of spheres advocated by the Carnegie report. Only by recreating the function of an autonomous discipline with an objective lens on business knowledge within the core curriculum at SMU can that university attempt to incorporate both the critical and reflective side of the liberal arts in management education. This kind of liberal management education can indeed lead to respect for the values of the others in the way that ethical philosopher Emmanuel Levinas envisioned.
Further development of the SMU core curriculum is necessary in order to confirm the hypothesis that the liberal arts can be brought together with management education to produce more mature, ethical students.
Liberal management education curriculum must incorporate the critical function of the liberal arts when faced with business knowledge production in order to promote a pluralist ethics. If SMU is successful, it can become a model for other global business schools in Asia and beyond.
Asian higher education is ongoing a rapid transformation in values. The shift is towards understanding the wider relationship between universities and society and the role of an education citizenry. Liberal management education can be a bridge to this new world of higher education in Asia, and beyond.
This discussion provides a fuller understanding of the two-sided nature of the liberal arts and the importance of both sides for building a liberal management education and creating ethically mature students.

Liberal-arts outcomes results have fallen short of expectations though this may be a short coming of higher education generally. A new era of the knowledge society will shrink liberal-arts departments in humanities, literature and philosophy.
Liberal arts need definition and clarity of expected outcomes.
Jobs in liberal arts colleges will decrease given its weak effectiveness. Online education for liberal-arts areas will grow explosively.
Liberal-arts critics have been active for decades. What is different today is world wide access to all information 24/7 and massive open online courses (MOOCs).

The liberal arts hobby is a leisure pursuit that entails the systematic and fervent pursuit of knowledge for its own sake. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the liberal arts hobby as a setting for information behavior research.
The method of interdisciplinary translation work is used to relate existing research from the specialties of leisure studies, adult education, and information behavior. Drawing from leisure studies, the liberal arts hobby is presented within the context of the serious leisure perspective, a theoretical framework of leisure. Also, relevant research.
The basic informational features of the liberal arts hobby and adult learning project are discussed in terms of three issues of current interest within information behavior scholarship. The issues are: first, social metatheory and the ideal level of analysis; second, time and information behavior; and third, information behavior in pleasurable and profound contexts.
Research into everyday life, serious leisure and hobbies is extended and methodological tools are provided.
Information professionals, such as public librarians or systems designers, will have a better understanding of the information experience of a popular hobby group and be better able to meet their information needs.
Awareness and understanding of the liberal arts hobby will be increased across the field of information science, thereby creating a better alignment between the field and society.
The paper is the first to establish an interdisciplinary starting point for information behavior research in the liberal arts hobby.

WIL in Liberal Arts Programs: New Approaches
Deanne Gannaway and Karen Sheppard

In a service-led, knowledge-based economy, employers increasingly expect universities to deliver a workforce suited to this environment. This emphasis is evident in contemporary Australian higher education, which is shifting to an acquisition of vocational outcomes. However, vocational outcomes are not traditionally viewed as outcomes of liberal arts programs. Balancing new expectations with traditional perspectives generates a tension between assuring graduates employment outcomes and maintaining the integrity of the Bachelor of Arts (BA) as a liberal arts program. Getting it wrong can result in fragmented and unstable curricula. One of the many ways that Australian BA programs are grappling with this problem is through the provision of work-integrated learning (WIL) opportunities for liberal arts students. In professions-based programs such as engineering or dentistry, the shape and nature of these courses may be obvious. It is less so in the generalist BA. Australian BA programs offer students the opportunity to engage with WIL in a variety of ways. Evidence from national studies investigating the Australian BA between 2008 and 2016 highlight common features of practice – such as the objectives, activities, and structure, and indicate that two approaches to providing WIL opportunities in the BA are evident. In order to meet the goals and aspirations of both economic and social purposes of higher education, liberal arts programs tend to adopt either a transactional or a transformational model. Each model has particular characteristics and approaches to practice that can inform the development of new programs and policies more globally.

Advocating for a Diversity and Inclusion Commitment at Liberal Arts Colleges: Essential Conversations in the Role of the Chief Diversity Officer
Juan Armando Rojas Joo

While academia continuously probes and advocates for a definition of a comprehensive, inclusive ideal, diversity, multiculturalism, and equity are bridging ties elements that must be considered. Currently, liberal arts colleges have the unique opportunity to shape equitable environments for all their members and become role models for other higher educational institutions. If there is an institutional commitment, and people are willing to work for a common goal, small colleges can undoubtedly offer the appropriate academic conditions where all faculty, staff, and students can achieve their highest personal and professional potentials.
This chapter discusses the role of chief diversity officer (CDO) on liberal arts campuses and how the CDO should take the lead as equity advocator and conveyor and help set the desired dialogue conditions. Among the topics examined is the institutional inclusion process which includes innovative and supportive new ideas and programs for equity among all members of the academic community. Also the hiring of underrepresented faculty members is crucial and can support the growth of enrollment and retention of diverse groups of students. Diversity and inclusion create common goals, and liberal arts colleges should rapidly move to allow the best hiring practices during the recruitment of new faculty members. Equitable learning conditions for all are as crucial as the creation of faculty evaluation systems that promote equitable opportunities. Liberal arts colleges have a historic opportunity to lead the way and become exemplary role models in practicing diversity and inclusion on campus.

Towards a liberal management education

This paper seeks to outline the element of a liberal management education that would attend to the full human development of undergraduate management students enabling them to exercise the responsibility and leadership that the profession and practice of business and management require. It places such an education in the context of the global university today, and points to the shortcomings in management education as it is currently taught, the challenges facing implementation, and finishes with the example of Singapore Management University.
This is a discursive discussion piece drawing on philosophical texts, contemporary debates on management education, historical perspectives on the University, and the authors' combined experience in management education and business school leadership. It was written as an argument to be debated by future interlocutors.
The article concludes that liberal management education faces obstacles to implementation. These obstacles are recast as shortcomings in management education itself. It concludes that in part by recognising and overcoming these shortcomings liberal management education holds prospects for improving the full human development of undergraduate management students, and in so doing creating business leaders who have the maturity to take responsible and visionary decisions.
The article points to the need to elaborate a concrete curriculum across the spectrum of courses and subjects in management education.
The article invites other business schools to enter into a conversation about liberal management education and share experiences of implementing reforms in management education.
Liberal management education aims to produce citizen‐leaders who have the maturity and enlightened perspective to lead in organisations and in society. The intention of the article is to encourage debate and adoption in some form of a liberal management education philosophy and curriculum at other business schools beyond Singapore Management University, with the hope of shifting the emphasis in management education to preparing students as mature citizens as well as business leaders.
Many have discussed the problems of the contemporary global university, but few have considered undergraduate management education as a crucible for working out the conflicts and challenges facing today's university.

Common thread: The Fifth Discipline from a liberal arts college perspective

Liberal arts colleges (LACs) have played a crucial role in the foundation and development of the US higher education system. Today, these schools face numerous organizational and environmental challenges that threaten their performance and even survival. This paper aims to examine whether Senge's (1990) vision of the learning organization can serve a useful function in responding to these challenges.
A conceptual analysis was conducted based on research relating to learning organizations, LACs and the liberal arts tradition.
The paper identifies significant congruence between learning organization and liberal arts/liberal learning principles. LACs may benefit from applying and modifying Senge's (1990) framework to their own unique situations.
While The Fifth Discipline has certainly contributed to the lexicon of higher education, the role that Senge's (1990) framework plays in LACs has received scant research attention. This paper investigates the applicability of Senge's approach to an underexplored context.

The Mining Association of Canada (MAC) has a mixed engagement with climate change policy in Canada. MAC emphasizes carbon leakage concerns to advocate for climate policy that includes protection for emission intensive sectors and appears to downplay the emissions impact of oil sand production to reject significant GHG emission reductions in the sector. The Mining Association of Canada communicated support for carbon pricing in a 2016 policy statement, clarifying its support with the exception that trade exposed industries must be protected and that policies are revenue-neutral. However, MAC appears unsupportive of the British Columbia carbon tax, with its CEO, Pierre Gratton, criticizing the policy in 2016 for raising costs for the mining industry and not adequately protecting against carbon leakage. Evidence further suggests that the MAC advocates for a high GHG emissions energy mix, engaging policymakers to support both the approval of new pipelines for the Albertan Tar Sand industry in 2016 and the extension of the Mineral Exploration tax credit, a coal subsidy, in multiple interactions with the Canadian government in 2014 and 2016.

President Trump says he's putting an end to riots
Josh Wilson June 2, 2020
President Donald Trump addressed the nation on Monday from the Rose Garden stating that he is taking immediate action to end riots and violence across the nation in response to the death of George Floyd.
Trump said he will mobilize all available federal resources to stop riots and even said he will deploy the military if states don't send in the National Guard to control protests.
"I have recommended every governor deploy the National Guard in sufficient numbers to dominate the streets," the president said. "We are ending riots and lawlessness, we will end it today."
The president said that it's unfortunate that many peaceful protesters are having their message drowned out by those that only want to be violent.
"I will fight to protect you," Trump said. "We cannot allow the righteous cries of peaceful protesters to be drowned out by an angry mob."
In a powerful move following his speech, Trump walked out the front door of the White House across Lafayette Square, to St. John's Episcopal Church which was damaged during protests on Sunday. It was a clear sign to the president's critics that despite their claims that he was hiding from danger, he is not afraid to go into public.

Trump said he is dispatching thousands and thousands of heavily armed soldiers and military personnel to stop the rioting.
"I want organizers of this terror to be on notice that you will face severe criminal penalties," he said.
Earlier on Monday, the president held a phone call with U.S. governors to discuss the riots. Trump accused many of the governors of being weak in their response to the riots.
"You've got to arrest people, you have to track people, you have to put them in jail for 10 years and you'll never see this stuff again," said Trump. "We're doing it in Washington, D.C. We're going to do something that people haven't seen before."
Trump said that if a city or state refuses to take the actions necessary to defend the life and property of their residents, that he will deploy the United States military and quickly solve the problem for them.
Trump said justice would be served for George Floyd. He said he, along with many other Americans, were rightly sickened and revolted by video of the incident.

This is difficult for me to write. I have been a Trump supporter and continue that way, but it is time to stop the inflammatory statements. The nation knows how you feel about law and order; it knows it is needed; but it also needs some compassion applied in the midst of this. To disperse peaceful protestors with tear gas for a photo op is counter productive. Don't be tone deaf and give your opposition ammunition to hammer at you. Being tough is not always being cold and strident. Both elements must be a part of this or you will push people away that you need for their support. Strike a balance President Trump – please!
Raymond Chioma A. June 3, 2020
President Trump is right, What has the riot got to do with the Black lives matters. Now we are not talking what to do about the death black man but we are talking about protecting innocent citizens and property. Is this the meaning of Black lives matters. To destroy businesses, properties. So ,People like Joe Biden want to fuel more rioters to destroy lives and properties of innocent Americans, and then raise fund to defend them if arrested ? This is not protesting about Racism or injustice, but hate against the Innocent president. God of justice will vindicate President Trump.


If you're like thousands of apartment dwellers, the only outdoor space you have may be a tiny balcony. But not having a yard certainly doesn't hinder anyone from doing big, beautiful green things with your balcony. Balcony gardens can be achievable, intimate, and absolutely stunning.
Creating an ample garden on your balcony requires a little planning and decision making based on specific factors that you're going to have to make do with. Take a look at these tips for creating a lush, outdoor space that you'll love.
Balconies are usually considered as "microclimates", meaning it's a very small or restricted area that differs in the climate of its surrounding area. Depending on the location of your suite, the microclimate of your balcony can be different from that of your neighbour's.
In terms of exposure, the most important factors to keep in mind are the sun and wind. You should keep in mind the direction your balcony is facing from the sun. If your garden is turned toward the east, you'll be getting the delightful morning sun and some afternoon shade. As for wind, the higher up your suite, the more windier it will be on your balcony. People tend to forget that the wind can be more devastating than the scorching sun.
Also keep in mind the amount of heat the surface of your balcony retains. Not all plants, such as lettuce, can survive the extreme heat. Consider implementing succulents if you're balcony radiates intense heat.
The good news is that there are plants that are fit for almost every condition possible. So don't be too worried if your balcony has less than ideal weather conditions compared to that of your neighbor's.
When choosing containers, take into account the drainage capabilities of the containers. Drainage holes help guard against roots rotting due to over-watering. Additionally, putting saucers under the container prevents water from spilling down off your balcony onto your poor neighbour below.
As for what kind of soil to use, all-purpose potting soil will be particularly suited for the plants you will be growing. Note that succulents and other specialty plants will need a different type of soil mix.
This is the single biggest way to maximize a small space. Depending on whether or not your balcony has railings, walls or both, consider some essential space saving gardening accessories like hanging baskets, wall-or-railing-mounted containers, and trellises.

Facebook Blocks Posting With #ResignModi
Facebook is hiding posts demanding the resignation of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, indicating that the platform will be out soon. several conflicting choices which affects free speech in a country that is experiencing all the problems of COVID-19.
On Wednesday, the world's largest network claimed that articles containing the hashtag or message #ResignModi were "hidden here" because "some of the content violates our Public Standards." Because the records were confidential, it is not known what items violated the rules of the company whose employers are interested in disclosing. The ban appears to be using Facebook and Instagram, which Facebook owns.
Last week, the Indian government ordered Twitter banning access to more than 50 tweets criticizing Modi's handling of the epidemic. The program of Wall Street Journal he also said that Facebook and Instagram blocked Modi's posts by sending them to the government.
It was not immediately clear whether Facebook's ban on the #ResignModi hashtag came according to the Indian government, or whether it happened according to the company. Hashtag was shut down in India, according to users who shared views on Twitter, as well as in the United States, Canada, and England based on a search by BuzzFeed News.
Facebook spokesman Andy Stone declined to comment on why the hashtag was blocked. An Indian spokesman for the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology has not yet responded to a request for comment.
This seems to be the first time that Facebook has banned the call for a democratically elected world leader. It contradicts what founder Mark Zuckerberg said he prefers to give up what is possible if possible. The ban appears to be contrary to the principles of the previously celebrated platform for helping to advance the Arab Spring that led to the democratic uprising that overthrew Egypt's dictator Hosni Mubarak and dictatorial regimes in many other countries in the region.
In February, India He made new laws on television and online, which gives the government the ability to seek platforms like Facebook and Twitter to dispel what the government sees as questionable.
While there are indications that a normal life will return to the beginning of this year, India is currently the deadliest eruption in the world, which has filled its leader.
"The Hindu government of Prime Minister Narendra Modi has taken on the challenge of developing a plan to fight the epidemic in a poor country like India and make this impossible," he said. wrote Tuesday in the Indian Caravan.
Earlier this year, cases in India dropped dramatically, and many parts of the country are back in good health. But since March, the cases have grown. More than 360,000 people are said to have been infected and 3,293 died yesterday, according to Johns Hopkins Coronavirus Resource Center. The crisis has pushed the country's health system to the brink, and people are dying in their cars trying to find hospitals in Delhi. Before the meetings and religious meetings has spread the virus, while the Modi government is struggling to take action. On Sunday, President Joe Biden announced The US would be in a hurry national, as well as the lifting of restrictions on exports of vaccines necessary for vaccination.
Facebook's relationship with the Modi government and its party Bharatiya Janata have been monitored ever since Wall Street Journal revealed in August that India's chief of staff had defended a prominent BJP member and three other Hindu individuals who went unpunished for violating hate speech on Facebook. The employee, Ankhi Das, Facebook's chief of staff for India and South and Central Asia, later he apologized and resignation after sharing with them a Facebook post that said that the Muslims of India are a "proud group" for them "without religion and to establish the Shariah issue."
"In the context of the current political crisis, it is also important that Facebook does not show this and does not respond," said Evelyn douek, a teacher at Harvard Law School. "This seems to be a political issue at a very difficult time."

In the social life and customs of the people of the Middle East, the elders have a prominent status in the Arab family due to their know-how. The entire family members turn for advice from these elders. For instance, in a country like Afghanistan, a person who is unwell in the health status, the first thing to do is turn to the elders who are family members in search for support, encouragement and advice on how to deal with the sickness. It's a social way of life and a duty of friend and relatives of the sick to bring him or her gifs such as flowers, foodstuffs and other things for they symbolizes the sense of unity among them. Contrary to this, among the Spaniads, the elders do not play a much significant role especially in matters concerning advice and health. This is due to the fact that Spaniards live independently in their nuclear families unlike the people from the Middle East communities (Salzan, 2008).
These immigrant's world views were that their God was present and inevitable in day to day's living. They believed that everything on earth is looked upon as the God's archetype in the sacred universe. God is viewed as the chief reality of the whole world, and human being are as a result of the of their God's reality. This is evident in the fact that for every individual who is religious rich in the Middle Eastern culture prays at least five times a dayy. Working with this type of individuals is a bit hard to cope especially when it comes to the issues of religion. Us the Spaniards being Catholics, we do not pray adequately as they do. The other reason would be on how on they would view me especially due to the fact that my gender is feminine. This is due to the fact that in their society the woman has no much say contrary to our Spaniards culture (Gannon, 2009).
c. My reason for choosing the Middle Eastern for experimental interview.
