Tarrant releases new ad targeting Sanders on Victims Rights
Part I- An Analysis of the PolVT Story:
Republican US Senate nominee Rich Tarrant has released a new ad going after ("going after" PolVT never says Tarrant's "attacking") Independent Rep. Bernie Sanders vote on a bill dealing with victims rights.
(Note: PolVT calls Tarrant "Republican US Senate nominee" and Bernie "Independent Rep." Why not "Independent US Representative?" Why not "Republican Senate candidate?" PolVT writes it to make Tarrant sound more important, and Bernie less important.)
This is a pretty heavy ad. ("Heavy." Read: It, thus Tarrant has political gravitas.) Expect a strong response from Sanders' campaign. (PolVT Raises expectations of Sanders's camp vis-à-vis this ad in an effort to diminish the impact of whatever that response is. If there is no response, then Sanders is derelict. Clever.) Click on the picture to view the ad.
Part II- An Analysis of the Propaganda Per Se
In the ad the woman asks "Bernie, who's right's are more important- the rapist's or mine?" Does this mean this woman is a rape victim? If she is and has gone public about what happened to her for the sake of victims' advocacy, then I applaud her courage. If she has not been a victim of rape, then she's misleading us when she says "or mine." Is this a real victim being interviewed? Is she being paid for her work on this commercial?
According to the Ad the woman speaking is Lesanne Vincent of Burlington, who has been a resident of Vermont for 43 years. If you just glance at the ad you might think she has lived in Burlington all that time. Like she might even know Bernie personally…. (it's sick, but this is where SPI, Inc. is leading us.)
Part III- Good Reason to vote "Ney"
Here is the text of the bill this commercial flashes on the screen:
WOMEN'S RIGHTS * HIV TESTING –PASSAGE
"Canady, R-Fla.: Motion to suspend the rules and pass the bill that would allow sexual assault victims to find out the HIV status of their suspected assailant immediately after the charges are brought."
H.R. 3088, CQ Vote #505: Octob
Libertarians? Bueller? First of all we're talking about suspects here, not convicts. You can't go taking a person's blood and medical records just because they are accused of something.
Secondly, this runs right up against science. I've always had to wait two weeks to get the results of an AIDS test. Maybe results can come back faster now, but there is still that period of between six weeks and six months when the virus could be incubating and undetectable by the test. And that's only if you have no sex during that interim between tests. You can't force six months of something on someone who is merely accused. Who and how would you enforce that anyway? And of course the last thing you want to do is tell a woman who was just raped the guy who did it checks out clean, when he really doesn't.
This commercial is an outrage and it makes me feel physically ill. Literally. Shame on everyone involved, excepting Lesanne Vincent if she really is a rape victim. If that's true, she gets a pass. For using this woman, and the pain of rape victims and their families try to gain political advantage, Tarrant gets no pass. No pass.
Decent Vermonters from all political stripes should overwhelmingly repudiate these disgraceful tactics.

Lesanne Vincent wrote a strange Letter to the Editor on March 26, 2006. In the letter, she accuses Bernie of not being supportive of the "working class" because he held a free event with Senator Obama at 11:00.

To save Readers the trouble:
of the people?
How can Bernie Sanders call himself a man of the people when he is bowing to the Washington elite while telling his local townspeople if they want to attend their "fabulous function" it will cost them an upwards of $1,000? Are you kidding? Who of us, the working class, has that sort of cash to throw around to listen to a Senator from Illinois?
I'm also curious why the "free" part of the "fabulous function" is held around 11 a.m. Most people are working during that time, Bernie. I was interested in attending the lunch, but I do not have that sort of cash. I then heard that the speech session was going to be open to the public, but I have to work for a living. So thanks for having a publicity event that your supporters cannot attend. I am seriously questioning your loyalty to the working class.

I am appalled that 380 members of the House of Representatives voted to violate the privacy rights of a suspected criminal who is supposed to be innocent until proven guilty. That seems so, oh I don't know, unconstitutional.
I hate (HATE HATE HATE) to say this, but Bernie was on the right side of this issue.
I love that PolVT links to you. Tell you what Charity. Give me a senator and I'll give you a governor. Good deal for you- there's only 50 governors.

Think about the Duke University Rape Case. If this bill had passed, those Lacrosse players would be required to have a blood test, and the results would be published in the media.
I can't believe that Rich Tarrant supports this type of thing.
Incidentally, have you noticed that Tarrant only uses white people in his ads? For an issue with victim's rights, couldn't he find a black person or an asian?
Vermont offers significant services for victims of rape, including the following:
1. After conviction, the victim is entitled to receive the results of any HIV or other infectious disease test.
2. The defendent is encouraged to voluntarily provide HIV and other blood tests. If the defendent agrees to provide this information, the judge can reduce the sentence, if the defendent is found guilty. Furthermore, the results of such testing cannot be used against the defendent in the trial and confidentiality is assured.
3. The victim is entitled to HIV and other testing, along with counseling. If desired, the HIV testing can be repeated once a month for up to six months. The state pays for these services.

If Lesanne Vincent is really the victim of a rape, I would hope that she already knows about these services.
Incidentally, have you noticed that Tarrant only uses white people in his ads?
Well. This is Vermont. I think Tarrant knows there's only a small percentage of non-whites here, and he'll only win a small percentage of that vote.
For an issue with victim's rights, couldn't he find a black person or an asian?
Why would he? Minorities shouldn't always be portrayed as victims. What kind of message would that send?
There's plenty else in this ad to tear down. I don't see a need to 'go there' on race.
With regard to race, there is a false steriotype that 90% of all rapes are performed by black men on white women.
I think that Tarrant is playing into this racial stereotype by depicting a blonde white woman as the victim of a rape.
That stereotype is false. In fact, in the vast majority of rape cases, the victim and the perpetrator are the same race.

I'm with Haik 100% on this point.
Besides the issue of race, there is plenty to tear down in this ad.
Legislation regarding rape has always been a state issue. Vermont already has a very good approach to this issue.
Tarrant really messed up on this one!
You are all missing the most obvious aspect of this story. This legislation was not passed into law! It did not even come up for a vote in the Senate. All of this occurred six years ago so that republicans could claim that they were in favor of victims rights. In six years, despite controlling the House and the Senate, this legislation has not been passed.
It was not passed for several very good reasons. The act of rape is not a federal offense. It is defined differently in every state.
I didn't think it was possible without really risking libel or slander, but Tarrant has miraculously lowered the bar again.

Now that you've hopefully enjoyed that hype history lesson, let's get into the event. Don't worry, we're going NON-SPOILER here and I'll get right to it: It was absolutely fantastic. From top to bottom, Kristian Harloff, Mark Ellis, and the entire team killed it. From production viewpoints, entertainment viewpoints, and from the perspective of fan positivity, this was a top tier event. In an amazing feat, the 'Schmoedown' team sold out Chicago's Athenaeum Theater on April 13th, bringing in 1,000 fans, many fresh off their celebrating in that galaxy far, far away but STILL wanting to make time for this showcase in knowledge. And even with that pressure, the team's combined efforts ensured a seamless and thoroughly enjoyable experience. But like...it's also a game right? And games have players? Well, that's absolutely correct.
The competitors from the evening included famed YouTube personality Alex Damon, comedian and writer Joseph Scrimshaw, writer Marc Andreyko, film journalist Jeff Sneider, podcaster and producer Mark Reilly, and host and podcaster Ben Bateman. All six of these men really lit the crowd ablaze. The passion was palpable. The crowd interaction was special and celebratory. They carried the torch of community and acceptance proudly the entire evening. You owe it to yourself to check out some of their stuff!
Now when you combine the litany of talent from the digital, comedy, and writing spaces with the aforementioned crowd of 1,000 passionate fans, you can only have the word that the show has embraced for this, its sixth season: Magic.
Now's the time to check out the Schmoedown, people. It has something for everyone, and I couldn't recommend it more. Their live experience in particular is something special. The reach toward this new height for their brand has worked out in the most grand way, and it'll continue to grow in Houston on May 18th, and San Diego on July 20th! Get your tickets and become a part of the action!

I graduated from Coventry School of Physiotherapy in 1989 and completed my first junior rotation at Nottingham Queens Medical Centre. After starting to specialise in musculoskeletal physiotherapy I travelled and worked in South Asia and Australia for two years before returning to Nottingham to continue my specialism. Whilst in Nottingham I continued to develop my interest in spinal pathology and treatments developing multidisciplinary spinal pathways and protocols across the county. I also completed my MACP and other postgraduate training.
I moved to Birmingham and became one of the first Extended Scope Physiotherapists in the country working in clinic alongside an orthopaedic consultant and independently ordering investigations and managing patients. Whilst here I presented my research findings at a National Physiotherapy Congress for two consecutive years and also won a scholarship to attend the World Congress in Japan. I moved to Surrey in 2000 initially working as a Clinical Spinal Specialist in Woking and subsequently taking up an Extended Scope Spinal Specialist position. This combined with my special interest in rehabilitation and my passion for treating complex sporting injuries. I have worked at Spire Clare Park since 2004 combining my position with work as an advanced musculoskeletal physiotherapy practitioner in the NHS. I have recently become clinical lead in outpatients at Clare Park and am responsible for developing and continuing to promote the excellent skills in the department.
I also have a diploma in golf rehabilitation together with postgraduate qualifications in running assessment and lower limb rehabilitation. I am currently studying for an MSC in neuromusculoskeletal medicine. I am a member of the Association of Chartered Physiotherapists in Sports and Exercise Medicine (ACPSEM) and Advanced Practice Physiotherapy Network (APPN) special interest groups.
Special clinical interests: Spinal conditions, hip and knee, sports injury, pain management, musculoskeletal, core stability and gym based rehabilitation.
I am a keen dingy sailor and squash player and enjoy skiing, cycling and walking.

Port Glasgow Town Hall Christmas Party (Betty)
Mark Neville
In 2004 I spent a year working in Port Glasgow, the world centre for shipbuilding fifty years ago, now a town facing economic decline. The result of this stay was a beautifully produced coffee table-style book. Conceived as a symbolic gift and unavailable commercially, the book was delivered uniquely to each of the 8000 households in the community by the local boys football club. Rather than having a public artwork imposed upon them, the Portonians received a document of their lives and of their participation as both the hosts and protagonists of an artistic experiment. 'Newborn Lamb' and the film 'Fancy Pictures' were commissioned for an exhibition at Mount Stuart, on the Isle of Bute, in 2008. 'I was fascinated by the context; the triangular relationship between Mount Stuart Trust, the artist, and the community on the island. When you look at the history of painting, the notion that a commissioned art work can look objectively at the relationship between a land-owning commissioner, and those who work the land, seems contentious, and thus a fertile position to explore. This involved engaging, over a sustained period, with a closely knit, working community, and giving substantial authorial control back to it, as both the subject and primary audience. As with the photograph 'Newborn Lamb', the film draws on the mystical relationship between people and animals on the Isle to create an elegiac fantasy.' Mark Neville

            $this->getUploadRootDir(),

        );

        $this->setFile(null);

}

And it's work correctly and it deletes the file and clear the path  field .
My problem now is to make a function to change the path field and the file.
Is there someone to help me
and Thank you :)

A: You have almost everything you need i think, follow the official doc :
http://symfony.com/fr/doc/current/cookbook/doctrine/file_uploads.html
in your controller :
public function uploadAction()
{
    $user= new User();
    $form = $this->createFormBuilder($user)
        ->add('file')
        ->getForm()
    ;

    if ($this->getRequest()->isMethod('POST')) {
        $form->handleRequest($this->getRequest());
        if ($form->isValid()) {
            $em = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();
            $user->upload();
            $em->persist($user);
            $em->flush();

            $this->redirect($this->generateUrl(...));
        }
    }

    return array('form' => $form->createView());
}

You must change your upload function in the entity a bit to save the path of the file after you move it.
User.php
$this->getFile()->move(
    $this->getUploadRootDir(),
    $this->id.'.'.$this->getFile()->guessExtension()
);
$this->path = $this->getUploadRootDir(),
    $this->id.'.'.$this->getFile()->guessExtension();

and don't forget the routing for the upload action.

Luis Alberto Ortiz (born May 25, 1970) is a Dominican professional baseball coach and former player. He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) from 1993 to 1996 for the Boston Red Sox and Texas Rangers. He is currently an assistant hitting coach with the Red Sox.

Playing career
Ortiz played three seasons at Union University in Jackson, Tennessee. He was drafted by the Boston Red Sox in the 8th round of the 1991 MLB draft.

Ortiz played in minor league systems of the Red Sox, Texas Rangers, Arizona Diamondbacks, Montreal Expos and St. Louis Cardinals from 1991 to 2004.

In a four-season MLB career, Ortiz was a .228 hitter (33-for-145) with two home runs and 26 RBI in 60 games, including 14 runs, seven doubles and three triples.

Following his time in MLB, Ortiz played in Nippon Professional Baseball with the 1997 Yakult Swallows.

Coaching career
After retiring from baseball, Ortiz opened a baseball school in Keller, Texas, called Swing City.  He has published four hitting books; The Natural Hitter Handbook, plus three drills books.

Ortiz started his professional coaching career in the Texas Rangers organization as a coach for the Spokane Indians in 2008. He was a roving hitting coordinator in the Rangers' system from 2009 through 2011. In 2012, he was promoted to assistant hitting coordinator. Ortiz was let go from the Rangers organization after Tim Purpura was brought in by Nolan Ryan to run the Rangers player development system.

Ortiz was the lower-level hitting coordinator and the cultural development coordinator for the Cleveland Indians in 2013. In 2014, Ortiz was promoted to assistant field coordinator while performing the role of hitting coordinator.

Ortiz joined the San Diego Padres, and from 2015 through 2017 served as their minor-league field and hitting coordinator. Ortiz was named the interim major league hitting coach of the Padres for the final month of the 2017 season, after Alan Zinter was fired.

On December 1, 2017, Ortiz was hired by the Los Angeles Dodgers to share the dual role of assistant major league hitting coach/minor league hitting coordinator with Brant Brown. He spent the 2018 season in that role.

On November 14, 2018, Ortiz was named the hitting coach of the Texas Rangers, joining new manager Chris Woodward's staff. Ortiz was let go by Texas following the 2021 season.

In December 2021, Ortiz was named an assisting hitting coach for the Boston Red Sox.

Personal life
Ortiz went back to school and graduated from Union University in Jackson, Tennessee with a Bachelor of Science in Physical Education & Health, with a minor in Management & Marketing. In doing so, he became the first player from the Dominican Republic to both play in MLB and graduate from college. Ortiz is married to his wife Susan, whom he met while at Union University, and they have four daughters, Gabriela, Naomi, Samantha, and Moriah.

The 10 Most Powerful Artworks on Motherhood from the 20th century | KCET
Jori Finkel
Jori Finkel is a journalist who moved to Los Angeles from New York in 2005 to cover the growing art scene here. She is currently the West Coast correspondent for The Art Newspaper and a regular contributor to the New York Times arts pages. She was the co-producer on KCET's "Artist and Mother."
Art about motherhood has been devalued just about as long as the work of raising children has, and too many artists who go that route are quickly labeled eccentric. But starting in the 20th century, we can find many examples of artworks that use the images or materials of motherhood to great effect. Here are my picks for the ten most powerful motherhood-related works from that time. A few pieces have a quiet strength. Others are perhaps understandably more aggressive, demanding attention and insisting that what seems eccentric to others is actually a central source of activity and creativity.
Käthe Kollwitz: Frau mit Totem Kind (Woman with Dead Child), 1903
Käthe Kollwitz: Frau mit Totem Kind (Woman with Dead Child), 1903 | The Clark
A German artist who feels urgent today because of her interest in social issues like the physical and emotional toll of poverty, Kollwitz in 1903 made drawings and etchings of a woman cradling her dead child. We don't know the conditions of his death, but we are shown the way that event has just cratered another life. The child's face is pale, calm, symmetrical, or in aesthetic terms classical. The mother is the opposite, rendered in dark, scratchy, expressionistic lines — her eyes almost like gouges — giving the impression her skin itself is torn by grief. The picture is also haunted by a wrenching irony: Kollwitz used her seven-year-old son Peter to model for the child. Eleven years later, Peter was killed in World War I, prompting more expressions of grief from Kollwitz.
Louise Bourgeois's Femme Maison (Wife House), 1947
Louise Bourgeois's Femme Maison (Wife House), 1947 | Museum of Modern Art, New York
Bourgeois's late-in-life, larger-than-life bronze and steel sculptures of spiders are widely celebrated for their dark exploration of family dynamics, with the "maman" given spindly, spiky legs that make her an ambivalent figure, to say the least. But I have always had a soft spot for Bourgeois's unflinching "femme maison" paintings from nearly half a century earlier. I especially like the full-length drawing done in 1947 of a nude woman, only in place of her torso and head stands a house with many floors and numerous tiny windows. The house has literally taken over her brain. The French-born, American-based Bourgeois gave it the title "femme maison." It's usually translated as "woman house" but also means "wife house," a play on the English construction "housewife," which posits, like this drawing, a woman who fundamentally supports her house, is entirely defined by her house and might as well be married to her house.

Leonora Carrington's The Giantess (also known as The Guardian of the Egg), circa 1947
Leonora Carrington's The Giantess, circa 1947 | Flickr/Blache69
Of all earth mother imagery, this Surrealist giantess seems like the fertility queen. Her hair is made of golden wheat. Birds flock to her like she's a tree rooted in the earth. She holds in her hands a precious black egg. She stands large enough to encompass land, sea and sky, a sort of cosmic explorer or creator. Born in England to a British father and Irish mother, Carrington painted this painting as an expat in Mexico in the late 1940s, and you could trace the monumentality of the main figure back to the Mexican muralists. Others see the influence of Celtic mythology in particular symbols like her geese. And others yet see a vaguely Christian framework, noting that her fertility goddess has a red robe and golden halo that recalls Old Masters paintings of the Madonna. I love the fact that this painting is always more mystery than solution.
Ruth Asawa's Looped Wire Installations, 1950s-90s
Ruth Asawa installation with untitled sculptures, 1950-1962, in "Revolution in the Making: Abstract Sculpture by Women, 1947-2016" at Hauser Wirth & Schimmel in 2016. | Jori Finkel.
Asawa's sculpture is so often viewed through her roles as mother and local arts educator in San Francisco, with Imogen Cunningham capturing images of her kid-packed studio looking like a progressive preschool, that a scholarly effort has been made lately to not read her work too much against domesticity. But I can't help but see her crocheted wire sculptures, at least those arranged in constellations hanging from the ceiling, as robust families of forms. Her lengthy, wavy biomorphic shapes resemble spiraling DNA strands, and her forms relate to each other as intimately — and stubbornly independently — as siblings do.
Alice Neel's Nancy and Olivia, 1967
Alice Neel's Nancy and Olivia, 1967 | Flickr / Gandalf's Gallery
Have you ever seen so many ugly greens in one painting at once? While so many mother-and-child paintings celebrate a moment of tenderness or communion, Neel manages in this portrait of her daughter-in-law to capture the slightly ugly and terribly awkward reality of suddenly being the caregiver responsible for keeping another person alive. The mother looks startled to even be there, her expression tired but vigilant, and the baby hyper alert. This is motherhood as an extended adrenaline rush.
Marisa Merz's Scarpette (Little Shoes), 1968-1980s
Marisa Merz's Scarpette (Little Shoes), 1968 | Tate
In the world of Merz's beautifully humble objects, nothing speaks to her own family life and the continuity between homemaking and artmaking quite as powerfully as the small slipper-style shoes she knitted for herself and her daughter Beatrice from nylon thread or copper wire. They are simple-looking objects with a complex status: wearable but also museum-pedestal pieces, useful until they are useless. For one 1970 performance, she took the little shoes to the beach outside of Rome and let the waves of the Mediterranean knock them around. They reference domesticity and transcend domesticity. I think they are stubborn little shoes.
Mary Kelly's Post-Partum Document, 1973-79
Mary Kelly, Post-Partum Document, 1973-1979, Generali Foundation | Werner Kaligofsky
When this series was first exhibited at the Institute of Contemporary Art in London in 1976, it was a sensation for all the wrong reasons: the dirty diaper liners that Kelly framed as part of her documentation of her son's first years sparked the usual "is this art or rubbish?" controversy. Increasingly the series has been appreciated as radical in other ways: one of the most rigorous and systematic attempts to create a psychoanalytic matrix for analyzing the daily events and developmental milestones of a young mother's life: her son's early sentences, scribbles and, yes, diaper liners meticulously recorded and framed. Kelly recently said the biggest misperception is that the work is a faithful recording of her son's fist years like some sort of conceptual-art keepsake book. It's more, she said, about the mother's experience and even separation anxiety as her son gains independence in the world.
Celeida Tostes's Passagem (Passage), 1979
Celeida Tostes, Passagem (Passage), 1979 (detail). Photo performance: twenty-one projected photographs. Dimensions variable.| Raquel Silva / Projecto Celeida Tostes, Courtesy of the Hammer Museum
First the Brazilian artist Celeida Tostes embedded small, noisy objects inside clay eggs or spheres that looked like wombs. Then, for an epic work in 1979, she placed herself inside one: smearing herself with liquid clay then climbing into what art historian Maria Angélica Melendi has described in the catalogue for "Radical Women: Latin American Art, 1960-85" as "an enormous vat of unbaked clay suggestive of both an indigenous funeral urn and a womb." She had assistants seal her inside the vessel before she emerged, reborn, from it. The photographs documenting the performance, a highlight of "Radical Women," are moving: They document a woman struggling to conjure up an absent mother, an individual losing herself in the undifferentiated muck of pre-life (in a related poem, she wonders if she is mineral, animal or vegetable), and an artist symbolically giving birth to herself.
Judy Chicago's Birth Project, 1980-85
Judy Chicago, The Creation from the Birth Project, 1984, Modified Aubusson tapestry 42 x 163 inches. Executed by Audrey Cowan Collection of the Museum of Arts and Design, NY; gift of the Robert and Audrey Cowan Family Trust
One of Chicago's most important and least appreciated projects, this series consists of dozens of tapestries and mixed-medium works featuring birthing imagery made in collaboration with some 150 needleworkers. Not a mother herself, Chicago asked others for accounts and also witnessed friends giving birth to capture what she has described as "the glory and horror of the birth experience itself, the joy and pain of pregnancy, the sense of entrapment that goes along with the satisfactions of giving life." While the choice of medium clearly comes from the domestic realm, the highly stylized (and often boldly, some would say garishly, colored) images of female legs spread for a non-sexual reason gives the work its punch.
Senga Nengudi's R.S.V.P., 1975-present
Senga Nengudi, "R.S.V.P," first realized in 1975 | Courtesy of the artist
I have to admit I probably saw three or four different versions of R.S.V.P., the performance-activated sculpture that Nengudi made by filling pantyhose with sand and stretching it across corners or rooms, before thinking about the improbable elasticity of the pregnant body. But that is exactly how Nengudi herself described the work, large enough to contain multitudes, to a Chicago Tribune reporter last year. "I'd just had my two children and was fascinated with this issue of pregnancy, how you expand beyond all recognition sometimes," Nengudi said. "And then your body is so resilient and just bounces back into shape — well, pretty much so. There was also the elasticity of the psyche during pregnancy, this constant resilience that the body enacts."

Sisters of the Cross and Passion (also known as the Passionist Sisters) is a Catholic religious congregation founded in 19th-century Manchester, England, by Elizabeth Prout, later called Mother Mary Joseph. It is part of the larger Passionist movement.

History

The Sisters of the Cross and Passion of our Lord Jesus Christ was founded in Manchester, England during the 19th century, by Elizabeth Prout (known in religion as Mother Mary Joseph). She was a convert to Catholicism at the time the first Passionist missionaries arrived in England.

Elizabeth Prout worked among the poor mill workers of Manchester and gathered together a group of dedicated women to serve their needs, both educational and spiritual. This was the beginning of the Sisters of the Cross and Passion.  The first sisters made their vows in November 1852. Prout's approach was unique for her time, in that her institute did not have specific educational requirements nor dowries. Membership was therefore open to the poor that the community served. Individual talents determined what tasks were assigned.   Clementina Stuart (1830-94), the youngest daughter of Charles Edward Stuart or Charles Manning Allen (1802-80), the younger of the Sobieski Stuart brothers, became a nun in the Order and worked abroad for many years.

In the early days they lived in the mill towns of England and Scotland, worked in schools for poor children, taught young working class women good housekeeping, and sheltered them in hostels. In time the Sisters of the Cross and Passion became best known for their many schools and colleges.

Ministries
The Sisters of the Cross and Passion are an international congregation.  The largest part of the Congregation is in the Province of St. Paul of the Cross which covers Great Britain and Ireland, and operates two hospice centers for the terminally ill in Bosnia.   The United States province has houses in Connecticut and Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey, Tennessee and Jamaica, West Indies.  Other provinces are in South America, in Chile, Argentina and Peru. There are also sisters working in Australia, and Papua New Guinea. The sisters in Botswana work with people living with HIV/AIDS and offer HIV preventative education.

Sisters are involved in education, parish work, retreat work, and pastoral care. They run retreat houses in Connecticut (US), in Larne, N. Ireland and in Ilkley, England

Sir James Henare said that to be monolingual is to know only one universe. Unfortunately, the idea of Te Reo Māori (the Māori language) being made a compulsory subject in schools is offensive to some people.
However, restricting tamariki (children) to only one worldview limits their education and deprives them of the knowledge of Te Reo Māori and all the riches of the Māori culture.
When I attended Glenfield College (on the North Shore of Auckland) my third form class was required to learn four languages: English, French, Japanese and Māori. There was no problem for most of the year—until the term arrived when we were to learn Māori. Suddenly, several students brought in letters from their parents, demanding their children be removed from class.
The reason, as one of my classmates told me, was that Māori was a dead language and it was a waste of time studying it. This attitude has been present since the early 1900s when the suppression of the language mirrored the oppression of Māori hapū (clans), and iwi (tribes) and the exaltation of all things English as the height of civilisation. Unfortunately, in many schools, this unofficial policy mutated into punishment of tamariki for speaking their ancestral language. Those tamariki associated Te Reo Māori with pain, and passed this belief onto their children.
Fortuitously, the prognosis of linguistic death is premature. Regardless of misguided public opinion, the use of Te Reo Māori continues to grow—even though Māori must constantly prove its validity.
While I consider myself fairly proficient in Te Reo Māori, I know that it will take me years more to become fluent—not only learning the language, but also tribal histories, moteatea (ancient songs), proverbs, tikanga (customs and ritual) and all other aspects of the culture.
There is a wealth of wisdom encoded in the language waiting to be shared. So, then, what is the problem with children learning Te Reo Māori in schools? Personally, I see only benefits for children learning a second language. Most importantly it aids the development of their cognitive minds. Children develop an interest and empathy for other cultures and other ways of viewing the world.
While there are many languages in the world, Te Reo Māori is the only language indigenous to New Zealand. It is a language carved into our islands and we are surrounded by Māori place names, so it is only natural that children are curious and receptive.
The language is a taonga and a priceless connection to generations of ancestors and an insight into a thriving indigenous culture. Each kupu (word) spoken with correct pronunciation echoes a beautiful language. Each dollar spent on language revitalisation of Te Reo Māori is a worthy investment. Regardless of whether a person is fluent or not, language acquisition of Te Reo Māori is valuable.
Let's move past the deficit view of Te Reo Māori and celebrate its ability to weave people together; a wealth of philosophy and knowledge wait to be shared with willing students. So come on New Zealand, take a chance and fully embrace Te Reo Māori. Future generations will thank us for it.

We have monthly tuition payments to allow for more flexible enrollment and to keep the up front fees low. You may change your class schedule at any time provided there is space available. Our registration fee covers the whole family for the year, not the session and there are no additional insurance fees. There is no special outfit to wear or to buy in the future for performances.

We have a competitive team if your child wishes to take on that kind of commitment, and we will not push any gymnast to join the team that is not interested in it.
Physically gymnastics develops coordination, improves flexibility, and builds strength. This solid foundation for fitness serves as cross training for cheer-leading, dance, martial arts, swimming, and diving. Some experts believe the greatest benefits of gymnastics are mental. Gymnastics is often given credit for learning to listen and follow directions, building self-esteem and confidence, goal-setting skills, concentration and perseverance.
In addition, with increased coordination, strength, and flexibility gymnasts can improve their quality of life and cut down on injuries in everyday life.

Harvest arrives despite excessive rain

Subsurface drip irrigation pays for Ont. farmer
Yield study tallies gains from inputs, seed technology

News, Weather
Signs of excessive rain can be seen out the window of the combine as Robert Ellis takes a crop off near Elrose, Sask. | Brian Cross photo
If rain makes grain, then farmers near Elrose and Kyle in west-central Saskatchewan could be looking at some big yields this fall — at least in fields that weren't drowned out or flooded.
The area — about a two-hour drive southwest of Saskatoon — holds the distinction this year of having received more rain than almost any other part of the province since April 1.
"We stopped keeping track (of rainfall) after a while, but there has been a significant amount, that's for sure," said Robert Ellis, who farms near Elrose and serves as a municipal councillor in the Rural Municipality of Monet.
"We were looking pretty good for a while … but in the middle of July until early August, it just kept coming and wouldn't shut off."
In a normal year, growers in Monet and the neighbouring RM of Lacadena expect around 150 millimetres of rain during the growing season.
But this year, some farms received 625 mm or more.
Sloughs are full. Road are under water and farmland that was planted this spring is no longer accessible.
Remarkably, there will be a harvest this year.
A spell of mostly clear, warm weather that began in late August and early September has allowed the land to dry up and the crops to mature.
Last week, dust was flying and combines were busy as they took off what looks to be a bigger-than-average crop.
In fact, most of the grain that's been coming off over the past two weeks is dry — sometimes too dry to test.
However, evidence of the wet summer is not hard to find.
The water table in the RM of Monet is as high as it's been for decades, say locals.
Not far from Ellis's farm, the water in White Bear Lake is close to four metres deep.
That's deeper than it's been since the 1950s, according to what the old-timers are saying.
The RM has been pumping water from ditches for much of the summer, and many roadways are impassable, lying under millimetres or sometimes metres of water.
So how's harvest shaping up in the wake of the prairie monsoon?
"Our lentils suffered pretty bad, but our canola looks really good," Ellis said.
"Durum? It looks like there's going to be lots of it but probably not really good quality."
Farmers in the area are reporting lentil yields of five to 30 bushels per acre, depending on drainage and local rainfall amounts.
But quality is generally poor.
Close to 10 percent of Ellis's seeded acreage will be lost to flooding.
"Out of the 6,700 acres that we seeded, there's at least 500 acres, and I might go as far as saying 600 acres that we won't combine, just because its completely under water."
Canola fields — those that aren't flooded — are producing well, with average yields of 50 to 65 bu.
Durum crops will also produce high yields, but top quality durum will be a rarity in the area.
Most of the durum that's been taken off is grading No. 4, No. 5 or sample.
Further south, Kyle-area farmer Justin Allport offered a similar assessment.
"For the cereals, it looks like good high bushels and for the canola, it's high bushels as well, but the quality of the durum won't be the greatest … and the lentils were quite a disappointment," said Allport, who was harvesting barley Sept. 16.
"I'd say lentil yields were average to below average but poor quality."
At the family's main farmyard 13 kilometres north of Kyle, Allport recorded 550 to 575 mm of rain this summer.
Some of their fields received more than that, keeping machine operators on their toes and tow ropes at the ready.
"We've been hitting wet spots this year that we never knew we had," said Allport, a fourth generation farmer.
"Since our family started farming in this area, we've never seen it this wet. We're hitting potholes and water that we've never encountered before."
Despite the obvious harvest challenges, dry harvest weather arrived just in time, he added.
There will be a harvest this year, and probably a big one.
However, with quality concerns looming, no one's willing to say how the 2016 crop will stack up.
"I won't know for two more months," said Allport.
"It's been an interesting year, to say the least, but we won't know how things shape up until the smoke all clears."

TBS Orders Pilot Based on Long-Running Panel Show

Investigation Underway After Boy Dies At Museum
23 July 2012, 05:39 | Updated: 30 March 2016, 13:50
An investigation's been launched after a boy died at Beamish Museum in County Durham.
Emergency services were called to the open-air museum near Stanley at around 3pm on Sunday after a 7 year old boy suffered serious head injuries.
It's thought the accident involved a steam traction engine - the boy was pronounced dead at the scene.
The engine driver was also taken by ambulance to University Hospital of North Durham suffering from shock.
A joint investigation between Durham Police and the Health and Safety Executive's now underway.
Inspector Steve Dowdle from Durham police said:
"The engine driver will be spoken to by police at an appropriate time and is being treated as a witness.
The identities of those involved are not being released, but it is understood that neither of them were visitors to the museum."
Beamish was closed for the rest o the day on Sunday after the accident.

Today was the first day I didn't feel like I was going to pass out in the early evening. Perhaps because the Power Women celebration and Skype with some of LitWorld team in the New York office was just so great; perhaps because departure is nigh; or maybe I'm simply just now getting my bearings on how these days go.
Today I also ate a lot of reddish brown dust. It covers everything in Kibera. I spent most of the morning and early afternoon sorting through the non-book stuff that had been deposited in the library when they moved stuff over the other day. It was a really interesting process, seeing how much or how little LitClub notebooks had been used; unearthing hidden treasure troves of crayons and markers.
I got a solid glimpse of how hard it is for the people who live here to throw things away, because for one thing they are in real need of so much, and for another, the trash lives in endless heaps in their neighborhoods, so they can't actually escape it unless it's burnable.
Today we sent the Power Women off into initial Moms Club-ness with a great meeting and Skype. Before we got online with the LitWorld team in the New York office, we read a book called "Owl Babies" where 3 baby owls are worried because their mom isn't coming back and then she comes back and they're happy, and that's the whole plot, it's very sweet.
We then went around the circle and told stories about when the Power Women had made their children worried or their children had made them worried, but then it all turned out fine in the end, and those of us with no children yet told stories from our childhood. Lots of stories of children worrying while their parents were away or vice versa, with some humorous versions here and there.
After our great story-sharing circle, we handed out bags and certificates with cheers, and sang some songs while we were waiting for the Skype to get set-up, and some of the Power Women's children wandered in while we were getting ready. They were as cute as could be and it was my pleasure to have one of them snuggle with me for the Skype. It was so perfect that the LitWorld team grabbed "Llama Llama Red Pajama" to read because the theme went right along perfectly with our other book and our stories- it was like we planned it somewhere other than just in our hearts, but so often it turns out that is all it takes for things to be in sync.
Tonight Jen and I packed our bags so we can load up the car with our (now much smaller) luggage in the morning when we head out for our last day with our Kibera friends, for this time around.
The photo above is of the library space near the end of the day today. It may not look totally organized yet, we are still waiting for the shelves to come over from the other room, and then they'll still need a fresh coat of paint, so there are still stacks of books on the floor, but all the floor space you see there used to be covered in all kinds of stuff, just stuff, stuff that didn't belong in a library for children, so those clear patches of floor were a big achievement for today.
Today started out with a morning of sorting books for the library, working on the furniture order, and choosing paint colors for the new spaces (outer doors will be orange!). So the painting can start tomorrow, and I should be able to see at least some of the rooms in their new colors and take pictures before we leave. The kids and Children of Kibera Foundation staff are all very excited about the new space, and about making it a place centered all around the children and having fun together.
I then met up with the Power Women, who are honored to be one of the first Moms LitClubs. They cheered when I said I would be giving them certificates tomorrow! I recorded them singing songs they would like to share with other Moms and they had a long discussion to nominate 3 leaders.
We talked about things they would like to do in the clubs, which included playing football (yes!) and hearing from other moms around the world about what to say to your children and do for them when you can't give them everything you want to give them. Several of them would like to be trained on how to use the computer, and we talked about how their children and families would be involved as well.
And then we went back over to the middle school and I chatted with some of the kids about themselves and school and what they love to eat, and whether or not the 7th grade girls are smarter than the 7th grade boys (they are), and then some of the LitClub girls gathered and made up a few fairytale style stories together, moving from girl to girl around the room, so I filmed that while Jen helped the story move along.
First of all, and i know everyone from LitWorld who has come to Kibera has said this, but Wamae (Eddie, our driver) is just so caring and observant and thoughtful. A true guardian spirit in human form.
Secondly, everything at Red Rose and the Children of Kibera offices is smaller than it looked to me in pictures and videos. The doorways are shorter, the children look younger, the teachers are more petite. This makes their palpable strength all the more powerful in person.
It was raining during the usual assembly time this morning, so we didn't officially meet all the children then as planned, but the tiny baby class boys and girls had already come up to hug my legs and grab my hand before getting in their lines without having any idea who i am. They radiate love.
We then went around and did introductions in each of the classrooms. (Some of them are truly like caves, amazing that anyone can learn in that darkness.) The older students were reserved in their classrooms, hiding questions and yearnings to share behind shy smiles.Tthe little ones burst into joyous singing and clapping at the slightest invitation.
I've attached here a snap i took (with one hand, while filming with the other hand...) During Jen's facilitator training session. The footage is raw, but i am excited to see how it will look edited together and primed for the Power Platform training materials. The teachers were giggling away, having a great time thoroughly engaged and asking questions as they practiced community building games and learned about their importance; they did not want to stop.
We did as many of them as we could outside in the yard, and the kids lining up for gym were intrigued to see adults untangle themselves from a human knot, and cycle through their silly sounds and movements for in motion.
We took measurements and brainstormed about furniture for the new space and made arrangements to meet with a local kibera carpenter tomorrow morning with Jeff, but went with Wamae to check out the furniture shops run out of shacks by the side of a main road in another part of town. We looked at cushions and stools and tables and bargained with the furniture-makers and took down prices and phone numbers so we will have a frame of reference for tomorrow morning's meeting, and people to call if we don't like what we see tomorrow.
Now i really do need to rest up so I can be fully present for Day 2, but looking forward to sharing more soon.

Equal access to justice is important for women
Pristina 08 March 2011
It is one hundred years since the first International Women's Day was celebrated. Since then, millions of women worldwide have demanded both political and work rights, and the enactment of laws protecting them from discrimination, guaranteeing them equal access to justice. Yet, full equality has not been achieved in a single country.
For a post-conflict society like Kosovo, equal access to justice and ending the impunity of those who use violence against women are very important elements for the establishment of the rule of law. Last year, Kosovo passed a law that addresses the problem of violence in the home and has created institutions to help and protect victims of domestic violence.
On the occasion of International Women's Day that is marked every year on 8 March, the EULEX Head of Mission, Xavier Bout de Marnhac, made the following statement:
"In Kosovo, the general laws on gender equality provide a solid basis for the promotion of best practices in many areas of social justice, including property and inheritance rights."
"I call upon the Kosovo institutions to apply the relevant laws on gender equality. EULEX staff are fully prepared to support this undertaking as part of our mandate. I want to emphasize that EULEX pledges to fight any gender-based discrimination. In that regard, equal protection under the laws and equal access to justice must be guaranteed for all women and men in Kosovo. On this important day, I want to express my continuing support to the women of Kosovo."
