Sink or Swim Book 1 - "05/17/2002"
It's easier to tell characters apart when they're in color.
I thought Cilke's tail was red and white, not black and white…and why do you keep going between black-and-white and color?
Well, it is red and white now but before Tiff got around to thinking up more colorful patterns for the skunks, they were all black and white.
That cramped cockpit design makes me think those ships are either all engines or all weapons… or a mix of the two with no though given to crew comfort….


When asked what is the main reason I love about being a consultant the answer is always the same. Asking questions is what I enjoy about being a consultant. Too often we are guilty of merely plowing through the work, instead of asking either how the work could be done differently, if it is even the right work to do, or if you're the right person to be doing the work. As a consultant, I bring an outside perspective that allows me to ask clarifying questions as I seek to understand your daily needs and struggles. I've found with clients that sometimes they are a better consultant then me, because by having to explain what they're doing, and my resulting questions they answer their own questions. As backwards as it seems, those are some of my favorite projects. Implementing projects that result in redefining the culture, the process, and systems to come alongside and help.
I also enjoy the "Out of the box" and "out of a box thinking. As a consultant I'm often asked by the project leader to come up with an out of the box solution for their needs. An out of the box recommendation for a paper driven and hard copy dependent company might be that they should start using online collaboration tools. "Out of the box" for most companies is a different idea presented. Presenting ideas that were not thought of or even considered until a new idea is presented. A possible solution for young scattered primarily online startup? Paper, pens (no internet for an afternoon) and develop a well-grounded strategy as a team. My goal is the help them see options, possible solutions and a road map for success.
How cliché is it to say that the reason I consult is to see growth and development of people? I consult because I love meeting people, hearing about their struggles and helping develop solutions and resources. I've had a passion for business since my early days and positively delight in having opportunities to aid and assist. My critical and analytical thinking bring a terrific balance to our team as we work to strategize your needs for business development, growth, relationships with your customers and growth.
My name is Scott Cone. Together we can build a better business for you and your business.

Meet the hitman and the vigilante who say they're trapped inside Mexico's drug wars
The government claims it has crushed the Knights Templar cartel in its bastion in the state of Michoacán. These two fighters tell a different story.

The beer-bellied man eating beef stew and tortillas in an empty warehouse claims that when he was 18 years old he wanted to be an agent for the US Drug Enforcement Administration. Today, 14 years later, he commands a unit of eight hitmen for the Caballeros Templarios, or Knights Templar, drug cartel in the Mexican state of Michoacán.
"Sometimes I ask myself if it was all worth it," he says of the war he has fought with other cartels, and former members of his own group who joined government-supported vigilante groups. "We should have just hidden the guns right away and fled. Fighting was pointless and many of my comrades would still be alive today."
An older and heavier fighter, who is putting away goat meat stew in the shade of a mango tree in a different part of the same region, was once also a Templario. Now he commands a group of former cartel members who claim to have left criminality behind, though they scoff at the idea that they might put down their weapons.
"If I don't carry a gun the bad guys will kill me," the vigilante leader says.
The stories of these two former allies and now enemies — who we will call Luis and Pancho and who both describe themselves as trapped in a cycle of killing — help explain why Michoacán remains among Mexico's most combustible regions nearly a decade into the country's drug wars that have killed well over 100,000 people.
The violence took off after Felipe Calderón launched a military-led crackdown on the country's cartels immediately after he became president in December 2006. He began it in the Tierra Caliente, or Hot Land, region of his home state of Michoacán.
Calderón's successor, President Enrique Peña Nieto, did little to modify the force-focused strategy when he took office in 2012. His government now claims it has both crushed the Templarios and brought under control the vigilantes that sprung up to fight the cartel.
The story on the ground in the Tierra Caliente is very different. The region is not only suffering the scars of the violence of recent years but is also now home to at least 13 armed groups — most of them dominated by Templarios and former Templarios. The question for many is when, not if, the violence will escalate again.

Violence between rival armed groups is still a constant in the region, though within the city of Apatzingán, its main hub, the heavy deployment of federal forces means armed groups keep a low profile and bodies tend only to be discovered when dawn breaks.
This changes a few minutes drive beyond the city's limits as the landscape transforms from flowing hills into a rugged and steep mountain range where locals have cultivated marijuana for as long as anybody can remember, and 'kitchens' pump out crystal meth for more contemporary US tastes.
Luis' stronghold lies 25 miles outside Apatzingán, but getting there requires first crossing the territory of a rival group marked, inevitably, by the sudden appearance of punteros — youngsters employed to report anything suspicious up the chain via two-way radios.
'We should have just hidden the guns right away and fled. Fighting was pointless and many of my comrades would still be alive today'
The fiefdom of this particular group ends at a river and a crumbling concrete bridge known by locals as 'the border.'
From there the road's tarmac gives way to light-brown dirt, carved with deep furrows that challenge even the most skillful drivers. It meanders through low bushland that the relentless Tierra Caliente sun has scorched near colorless, with the monotony only broken by a sparse population of tall cacti.
Key episodes in the Tierra Caliente's multiple conflicts have left their mark in this part of the region, such as the apricot-colored shrine occupying the lower part of a small hill and looking a little like a crashed spaceship.
The shrine was built to commemorate the spot where bullets fired from a police Black Hawk helicopter in December 2010 killed Nazario Moreno González, also known as El Más Loco or The Craziest One. Or so the government said.

Moreno became famous as the cult-like head of the Familia Michoacana cartel that emerged in the Tierra Caliente in the early 2000s and proved strong enough to wrest control of the region from its erstwhile bosses, the notorious Zetas. The Familia dominated everything from crystal meth and avocado production, to community conflict resolution. It claimed religious inspiration, at the same time as committing countless murders, and running wide-scale extortion rackets. Some accused cartel members of ritually consuming their enemies' hearts.
President Calderón celebrated taking down Moreno as a great victory within his campaign against organized crime, but there was a problem — the capo was still alive.
While officially dead, Moreno forged his own legend as "Saint Nazario" — penning a prayer for himself in which he was described as a "defender of the sick." He also set up up a new cartel called the Caballeros Templarios.
The Templarios took up where the Familia left off, but they hit a new obstacle in the civilian vigilante groups that sprung up around the region in 2013 and later allied with the government in joint operations aimed at ending the cartel's reign.

Locals tell of a 50-vehicle strong convoy of state and non-state forces sweeping the area for Templarios in early 2014. They trashed Moreno's shrine as they went, which is why it is now riddled with bullets, with shattered glass and dirt covering the floor. The narco-saint's golden statue is also long gone.
Moreno was finally killed again, in March 2014, this time apparently for good. When government forces arrested his second-in-command, Servando Gómez Martínez or La Tuta, in March 2015, they proclaimed they had finally eliminated the Templarios for good.
But the Templario gunmen — under Luis' charge and based in a 20-shack village at the end of the road — tell a different story as they hang out at a 60th birthday party drinking cold beer and listening to a live band.
They certainly don't look like ghosts as they show off their AK-47s with mounted grenade launchers and .50mm Barrett sniper rifles. They rattle off technical details about the weight (82 pounds), the range (1.8 miles), and the cost per magazine of 19 rounds ($1,042), which is almost triple a hitman's monthly salary.

Luis observes his gunmen and chats about his years as a student at a Bay Area high school, when he dreamt of taking down narcos as a DEA agent. He says it came crashing down when his brother got busted for running a crystal meth operation and Luis spent four years in prison, even though he claims he was never involved, before getting deported to Mexico in 2006.
He joined the Familia and then followed El Mas Loco into the Templarios with whom he remained loyal when things got tough. He bemoans the "treachery" of those who joined the vigilantes and transformed into enemies, or contras, overnight. He remembers the bitter war they fought before he was ordered to lay low in mid 2014.
'I know who they are, I know where they are. This will be sorted when the time comes'
The gunman says he headed for the state capital Morelia where he lived largely undisturbed alongside his wife and two small children, aside from when his path crossed with other Templarios gone underground.
"With so many turncoats, you didn't know what was what anymore," he says, recalling the time that one came to his house, beat his wife and scared his kids, but didn't find him. "That's ok. I know who they are, I know where they are. This will be sorted when the time comes."
Luis says he eventually emerged from clandestine life and established his new Templario unit in its current spot in January this year. He insists that all is calm, though calm does not preclude snipers stationed in the surrounding hills 24/7 watching for incursions from other armed groups.

One is the group on the other side of the river between Luis' stronghold and the city of Apatzingán. Another group of enemies is based behind the tall hills that surround the village.
This is why the crew sleeps in a roaming camp just outside the village. It also explains why they grab their gear and get ready to move out of the warehouse as soon as Luis' two-way radio spits out a report about shots being fired in a near-by community.
Such skirmishes do not compare to the all-out offensives that reached a peak when the Familia split and the Templarios were formed in 2010, or when the vigilantes initially took on the Templarios in 2013 and 2014.
But the killings are a constant, if underreported, challenge to the government's claim that the Tierra Caliente has now left the violence behind. A constant reminder, too, that the lines between cartel members, former members, and vigilantes are almost always blurred.
Pancho's case epitomizes how thin the division can be between good guys and bad guys, and between self-declared freedom fighters and narcos.
'If I don't carry a gun the bad guys will kill me'
He says he left the Templarios because he grew fed up with the strangling authoritarianism of the cartel's leaders. He says he joined the vigilante movement when it started to look strong enough to take on the cartel.
In theory Pancho and the vigilantes won. And, after kicking the Templarios out, were partly integrated into state law enforcement by way of a new force known as the Rural Police which was, again in theory, demobilized completely in May.

There is nothing demobilized about the hefty ex-Templario and the vigilante group he runs from a base about 15 miles from Apatzingán, in a different direction from Luis' stronghold.
Putting down their weapons, Pancho says, would be impossible because the Templarios are hell-bent on going back to the days when big money flowed from protection rackets imposed upon the area's lucrative agricultural enterprises. He claims some of these businesses are already receiving threats.
"They've got their lists of who paid how much before," he says. "It's a shitload of money."
Pancho also says that the state's reluctance to take decisive action against the reconstituted Templarios means that the region is likely to explode again.
Just three months ago, he claims, the Templarios might have overrun his area for good, had he not received a heads-up from a military commander, though he was told to expect no assistance from government forces.

Pancho says he activated the group's emergency protocol created to handle such situations, which meant 150 SUVs at his command moved out and his men took up their positions, ready to intercept the invaders. He claims the show of force persuaded the hostile Templario convoy to think again. It turned back without a shot being fired.
The threat from his erstwhile brothers in arms in the Templarios has gotten worse, the vigilante leader says, thanks to their alliance with a group called the Viagras.
The Viagras are an independent criminal group that has tended to ally with whichever is the main criminal protagonist in the Tierra Caliente — the Zetas, the Familia, and then the Templarios. In the interim they also became the federal government's main anti-Templario hunting squad, though the pact appears to have broken down and the Viagras returned to an alliance with the Templarios.
But though the narco-turned-vigilante complains that he cannot count on the Federal Police and the Military to support his battle to keep the Templarios and the Viagras at bay, he does credit them with knowing 'who's good and who's bad.'
This, he explains, includes giving his group a green light to hire out squads of 10 armed men to protect agricultural firms in the name of ensuring that the past cannot return.
But it is also the creation of a kind of private army with 350 members that inhabits a gray zone of illegality, unaccountability, and privatized violence. And it also unmasks the fiction that Michoacán is on track to reestablishing the rule of law.
Pancho insists that his group has no intention of trying to replace the state, let alone shoot at police or soldiers.
'With one patrol car and four cops you'll protect me, my people, my house, my wife? You can't'
Yet other sources place him and his group right in the center of the unabated armed struggle over territory and drugs shipment routes seen in the steady trickle of murders and the periodic appearance of mutilated bodies.
Whatever his role in the current game in which the different armed groups in Michoacán probe each other's weaknesses, and those of the state's forces, Pancho keeps a resolutely unruffled tone throughout the interview. That is until he turns to Michoacán's state governor Silvano Aureoles Conejo's plans to disarm self-proclaimed vigilantes like him.
"That man doesn't give a fuck," he says of the governor's plan. "With one patrol car and four cops you'll protect me, my people, my house, my wife? You can't."
Gunmen, said to belong to the Viagras, murdered one of Pancho's cousins as he pulled out of a gas station two days after making this comment. That cousin was the vigilante's third relative killed this year.

The legality of animals like these varies tremendously. As an example, while kinkajous are primarily frugivorous (fruit-consuming), their species falls inside the order of Carnivora, which some states ban. Others may ban Procyonidae, which is the order that accommodates raccoons. Animals like muntjac deer may very well be regulated with different deer, regardless of their small measurement. You'll want to check if there are legal guidelines concerning cervids, the family that features deer. Special legal guidelines may additionally regulate unique rodents, which will be as small as door mice and as large as capybaras. Nevertheless, sometimes unique pets can escape bans if they don't seem to be specifically classified within the writing. In New York, some uncommon exotics are nonetheless authorized as a result of they do not fall underneath the definition of felids, canines, and bears (reminiscent of noticed genets ).
Tyson is a Jack Russell/Corgi combine that I've had since he was a pet. Tyson is three years previous, weighs 29 kilos, potty-educated, neutered, and up-to-date with all vaccinations. Tyson plays well with kids and has a lot of vitality to spare. His favourite sport is fetching and conceal and search. Tyson is playful, lots of vitality like most Jack Russells and could be very smart. Tyson is shy in warming up to strangers at first but can be persuaded by taking part in a sport of fetch along with his favorite toy or providing him a deal with. Tyson is a household dog or a good dog for an individual proprietor he's fairly adaptable. I've just lately accepted a brand new position which would require in depth traveling sadly that will preserve me from house many nights and the flexibility to take spend time with Tyson. I am hoping to find a good loving family or particular person for Tyson soon.
Reply: This claim is far less wise. It's essentially arguing that contributing to the demand for the exotic pet trade is supporting cruelty. It's true that there are dangerous owners, but there are additionally bad dad and mom and unhealthy people usually. Dangerous things will all the time occur with anything that we do, however that doesn't imply we must always cease well-meaning, legislation-abiding folks from residing and choosing freely to be able to avoid it. Banning people from their pets as a result of their animals are much less well-liked than other animals is neither moral nor constitutional.

Karen Morth practices law in New York and Massachusetts. She has represented post-conviction clients as CPCS private counsel for about 20 years. Karen is honored to have had the opportunity to consult with Luke, Rebecca and Jim during the Farak litigation.
Jared Olanoff was a trial attorney for nine years with the Springfield superior court office of the Committee for Public Counsel Services, and has been in private practice for the last five years.
Luke Ryan is a partner at the Northampton law firm of Sasson, Turnbull, Ryan & Hoose. He has been a MACDL Board member since 2015 and serves as MACDL's representative on the Supreme Judicial Court's Standing Advisory Committee on the Rules of Criminal Procedure.
We are also pleased to announce that MACDL will be giving a new award at this event. The Burnham-Hines Award honors a new criminal defense attorney who has been practicing for less than ten years and whose work shows exceptional promise, skill, and innovation. The award is named for Margaret Burnham and for Geraldine Hines.
Judge Burnham was the first female African American Judge in Massachusetts. She was a defense lawyer prior to her appointment and her clients included Angela Davis. She has mentored and trained many young lawyers as a Professor at Northeastern, where she now runs a project to bring restorative justice to victims of racial violence.
Justice Hines was also a defense lawyer. Before her appointment to the Superior Court and later to the SJC, she was in charge of the Northeastern Criminal Defense Clinical program. She was the first female African American SJC Justice. Combining the names of these extraordinary defense lawyers and jurists in the award also has a special significance because they were founding partners of the first African American women owned law firm in Massachusetts.
This year, we are awarding the Burnham-Hines Award to Alyssa Hackett of CPCS.

Mazda zero emissions car spotted in Norway – but is it electric or hydrogen?
Credit: Jonathan Rodriguez
Mazda is a latecomer to the electric vehicle party, having invested heavily in efficient rotary engine technology (relatively speaking, compared to standard combustion engine), but photos reportedly leaked out of Norway suggest that the Japanese automaker is making some headway with its first fully electric vehicle.
The carmaker first confirmed a fully electric vehicle for production in 2020 in June 2019, and now the first images if what is said to be an electric prototype have been snapped thanks to spotter Jonathan Rodriguez.
The images show an SUV-style vehicle very much like Mazda's popular CX-5, the diesel version of which the carmaker has blamed on its struggle to meet tough European CO2 emissions standards.
Finished in a matte black and with no apparent exhaust pipe and a very odd-shaped protrusion above the rear right tyre, Rodriguez, who shared the images with Electrek, said that the car was very silent – as electric cars are (although we imagine even prototypes would require an acoustic safety alert system (AVAS) as is being considered here and is already mandatory in Europe.
Mazda CEO Akira Marumoto said in June that while the carmaker was intending to develop an EV drivetrain in conjunction with fellow EV-laggard Toyota, it would first introduce an EV on its own architecture.
It must be noted, however, that in Norway, number plates for electric vehicles begin with EV, EL or EK, while HY is reserved for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.
This vehicle on the other hand starts with HG. It is known that Mazda dipped its toe in the hydrogen game back at the turn of the century with the Demio and the Premacy, and later on the RX8 but in the form of a hydrogen rotary engine.
There are more recent reports of Mazda working with Toyota to further develop FCEVs (Toyotas has the Mirai FCEV), but it could just be that the number plate shown in these pictures is designed to throw spotters off the game.
The photos of the prototype suggest that the carmaker is basing it on the existing chassis of the CX-5.
If that is the case it would likely be working the EV drivetrain and the necessary electrical architecture in the spaces left be the internal combustion engine and drivetrain of the petrol and diesel version, much like the Hyundai Kona Electric.
Promising perhaps, but it can't be dismissed that Mazda has also pointed out it will not be giving up on its "lean burn" SkyActiv-X technology, nor its plan to electrify its entire range by 2030 using "rotary range extenders".
Also worth noting is that fact that with the 2019 Frankfurt Motor Show rapidly approaching next month, many carmakers are beginning to announce what new vehicles and concepts are planned for unveiling, there has been no such announcement from Mazda.
In fact, Mazda are not even on the exhibitor list for the 2019 show, which suggests that whether the images from Rodriguez are of an electric or FCEV prototype, the carmaker is not yet ready to officially unveil it.

Losing a large amount of weight can be an intensely rewarding experience, however, for many men and women sudden weight loss can result in a considerable amount of excess skin; the reason for this is that being overweight stretches the skin to accommodate the extra fat stores. When weight is lost, the fat reduces but the skin has lost its elasticity and does not retract resulting in loose unsightly skin folds. The thighs are very commonly affected as part of this process resulting in loose skin, which causes folds and rubbing between the legs, that can be uncomfortable and sometimes painful, which is where thigh lift surgery comes in.
Thigh lift surgery after weight loss is designed to remove excess skin and fat from the upper inner thighs. In some cases, liposuction is also required to achieve the desired outcome and this is usually carried out at the same time. It does not improve the loose skin at the outer thighs and hips. It also does not improve the loose skin which may accumulate just above the knee.
Thigh lift surgery after weight loss is carried out under a general anaesthetic and usually requires a stay in the hospital. During the surgery, Dr. Chana will remove the loose skin from just below the groin area and usually along the length of the inner, upper thigh. The scar is quite long and T-shaped, with the upper horizontal scar in the groin crease and the vertical scar extending down the inside of the thigh a variable distance. In severe cases, this can extend down to the knee.
It should be noted that in weight loss patients a mini-thigh lift with its limited groin crease scar is not suitable.
Following the thigh lift surgery, you will recover in hospital for one night. Wound dressings and a supportive compression garment may be given to you prior to you going home. Patients will likely be prescribed painkillers and you should take these regularly for the first few days.
The thigh lift is an invasive surgical procedure, and therefore you are likely to have some discomfort, swelling and bruising on and around your thighs. Occasionally the bruising and swelling can extend down the legs to the level of the ankles as a result of the effects of gravity, and this is entirely normal. Dr. Chana will advise you about your aftercare both before and after surgery, along with how long you are required to wear your supportive compression garment.
You will receive a follow-up consultation after your surgery at which Dr. Chana will assess your progress. It's advised you avoid vigorous exercise and heavy lifting for 4 to 6 weeks post thigh lift surgery, and should take a minimum of one-two weeks is taken away from work, although you should determine this based on the nature of your work. If you've undergone multiple skin removal surgeries (for example, a thigh lift in combination with a tummy tuck) you may need to reassess your recovery time.
It takes some time for the scars to fully mature; although the scars may be somewhat pink in appearance during the first few months, they will fade in time with the normal maturation process taking well over a year.
Thigh lifts after weight loss is a common procedure for Dr. Chana and is generally considered a safe cosmetic procedure when in the right hands. However, as with all surgical procedures, thigh lift surgery carries an element of risk. An unexpected reaction to the anaesthetic, excessive bleeding, risk of infection and developing a blood clot are all rare but recognised risks when undergoing surgery.
A fluid collection, called a Seroma, can occur even a few weeks after the surgery; this is a collection of clear fluid, not blood, and will easily be diagnosed during follow up visits and removed by aspirating it with a needle in the clinic.
Since the scars are long there are often parts of the wound that may be slow to heal. Often this is at the T-junction of the scar in the groin crease. This area will ultimately heal but may need more attention with dressings. Lumpy scars, which are called hypertrophic or keloid scars, can also occur but are unusual in Caucasian individuals.
There may be some loss of sensation are areas adjacent to the scar but this usually returns to normal over a period of several months. A patient should be aware that although they will be left with visible scars along the inner thigh following thigh lift surgery, most patients see this as a fair trade for not having excess, sagging skin.
Thigh lift surgery after substantial weight loss can also be combined with other surgical procedures, including Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), Brachioplasty (arm lift) and buttock lifting, depending on individual circumstances; it has to be remembered that combining surgical procedures can lengthen the operating time and comes with increased risk.
Each case is assessed individually and in some situations, combination surgery is not advisable. These are invasive surgical procedures, and a full consultation is essential in order to determine what options are available to you, as well as the risks and complications associated with this type of surgery.

Q: Splitting XML file into multiple files based on labels using python I have a large xml file that contains the details of image annotations.  A sample of the same is as follows:

        </image>
    </images>
</dataset>

I want this file to be split based on their tag names.  This file has two tags viz - ScoreBoard and Perimeter.  I want to create two different xmls out of this for each tag.  The desired output would be as follows:
for ScoreBoard-Vivon.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<dataset>
    <name>dataset containing bounding box labels on images</name>
    <comment>created by BBTag</comment>

I have 350-400 such tags.  How can I split them into individual files.

The Cuban health-care system is capable of responding to international crises quickly. After the 2010 earthquake in Haiti, more than 1000 health-care professionals were deployed. Cuba has provided free medical training for Haitians, graduating nearly 1000 doctors, with a further 400 in training at present. The Cuban approach to a crisis is not just a high-profile acute-phase response, but also involves going to where services are most needed, working with local communities, setting up infrastructure, with a long-term view.
Cuban medical education is backed by a rigorous accreditation system, which includes medical schools established in partnership with other Latin American and African countries.1 The Cuban approach emphasises prevention and social responsibility. Although conventional medical education trains all doctors to a particular level at which they can choose their specialty, primary care being one of these, the Cuban model (curriculum runs for 5 years with a 1 year internship) trains all doctors to become primary care and community practitioners first; further specialisation comes later. This approach is especially relevant in low-income countries where a commitment exists to universal health coverage with few financial and human resources.
During the past 50 years, the Cuban Medical Cooperation programme has worked in more than 100 countries. In 2013, more than 50 000 Cuban health-care professionals (19 000 of them medical doctors) were present in 66 countries, mostly in rural and remote areas. Since the establishment of the Latin American School of Medicine in 1999, it has trained over 20 000 doctors from Latin America and the Caribbean, Africa, and Asia, offering free scholarships to students coming from rural, remote, and low-income families.
The transferability of the Cuban model of training in Africa is now well established, with medical schools established in Angola, Equatorial Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Eritrea, and Tanzania, and partnerships with existing African universities in 25 countries. To date, these initiatives have graduated over 560 doctors, with a further 5700 in training. The Cuban model might well deliver better value for money in Africa and is redressing the inequity in rural—urban distribution of doctors.
Worldwide, medical education has not kept pace with health challenges; it is fragmented, outdated, and produces ill-equipped graduates for patient and population needs.4 The effects on the health-care system are profound: poor teamwork; predominant hospital orientation at the expense of primary care; and weak leadership to improve health-care system performance. A redesign of professional health-care education is necessary.
In May, 2014, the World Health Assembly called for a Global Strategy on Human Resources for Health in response to slow progress in expansion of the workforce since the World Health Report 2006. Universal health coverage will only be achieved if health-care workforce challenges are addressed,5 and yet, examples of effective action are few. The Cuban model of medical education—supporting the rapid expansion of the health-care workforce in partner countries and responding to worldwide crises, such as Ebola—provides a rich case study to inform the Global Strategy on Human Resources for Health.
In their analysis of the Cuban health-care system, Cooper and colleagues6 stated that "If the accomplishments of Cuba could be reproduced across a broad range of poor and middle-income countries the health of the world's population would be transformed." Surely the time has come to put this statement to the test.


Bravo Knaresborough! Is this Britain's most fun WI?
It's a staggering panorama, possibly the best view of any WI group's headquarters in the whole country.
The ladies of Knaresborough WI are holding their first-ever lunch at their new home at The Hub at St John's Church.
But they've paused to gather on the balcony to mark the occasion with a group picture for the Harrogate Advertiser Series.
They've insisted I join them but, as the only man in attendance, I feel like a streaker at a tea party.
Through the railings at the balcony's edge lies Knaresborough's iconic viaduct, the castle, the winding river of the Nidd and the charming houses along the Waterside.
It's a wonderful setting but if any WI deserves such plush surroundings its Knaresborough's.
Since it first formed more than three years ago, its membership has soared.
It's partly a reflection of the increasing popularity of the WI movement as a whole.
But it's also undoubtedly because of the friendly nature of this particular branch.
President of Knaresborough WI Carole Reid said engendering a spirit of fun was as important as anything else.
She said: "I think our progress is linked to the WI's national growth in recent years but we have a reputation of being a very friendly group.
A team operation, Knaresborough WI doesn't rely on the hard work of just one or two people and can boast a very active committee.
Carole herself leads a busy life - as anyone involved in community projects in Knaresborough will tell you.
As well as her WI role, she is also chair of Knaresborough Bed Race Commitee, chair of Knaresborough Relief in Need, treasurer of Knaresborough Spring Fair Committee and member of Knaresborough Friends and Lesiure Centre - among other things.
Not that this effervescent ex-chief executive of Investors in People for Yorkshire and Humberside ever expected to become a member of the WI, never mind taking on such a responsible role.
Carole said: "I never thought I'd join the WI and when I did I expected not to like it.
But it does take the formal side seriously.
Part of the meeting I'm lucky enough to be invited to visit is a discussion on this year's resolutions up for debate at the Annual Meeting in Brighton in June.
How to reduce food waste at supermarkets.
Improving the life of dementia carers.
In regard to the latter cause, Knaresborough WI has also invited Alison Wrigglesworth, services manager of Dementia Friends for York & Selby, Ripon Harrogate and Craven, to talk about her work, though there is still time for lunch - and two coffee breaks!
Originally an afternoon group at Aspin Cricket Club, Knaresborough WI grew from 14 members to 70 in only three years with ages ranging from 50 to one member who's just hit the grand age of 90.
This rapid expansion in membership forced it to move to the luxurious new premises at The Hub at St John's.
It's also now got a waiting list for new members.
There's much more to the WI these days than Jam and Jerusalem but cake does seem to retain a central role.
There's a tempting array of homebaked goodies on offer at this packed afternoon meeting.
One of the current members even managed to bake a total of 400 cakes single-handedly for the North Yorkshire West Federation's WI pavilion at the Great Yorkshire Show.
Does anyone know if men are allowed to join the WI?

Q: Bash to python script conversion I have a bash script to detect HDD connected in USB. I would like to convert it in python script to use it into SSH connection.
#!/bin/bash

for disk in /dev/sd?
do
        detect=$(udevadm info $disk | grep USB)
        if [[ "$detect" == *USB ]]; then
                echo "$disk is a USBDISK.."
        fi
done

I tried that, but it doesn't work. I have a problem with the for loop and with the condition in if statement :
import paramiko

for disk in "/dev/sd*" :
        CMD = 'udevadm info %s | grep USB' % disk
        stdin, stdout, stderr = client.exec_command(CMD, get_pty = True)
        detect = stdout.read()
        if detect == '*USB' :
            print "disk is a USBDISK.."

Thanks.

A: As Selcuk mentioned, you are looping through a string  instead than through the contents of the folder. When you do:
for disk in "/dev/sd*" :

you are looping through the string char by char like in the list ['/','d','e','v','/','s','d','*']
Python works different to bash when referring to strings and paths. Take a look to this answer from ghostdog74 to see how loop through a directory content.
This could fix the problems with the if condition. As a recommendation, you might consider if you want to check in the condition for:
 Exact string:
if detect == '*USB' :

or for string inclusion:
if '*USB' in detect:


The Joint Action Committee under the aegis of Rajasthan Muslim Forum organised a meet to asses the deteriorating law and order situation in the state. The committee has expressed concern over the government's inaction and its lackadaisical approach in dealing with the perpetrators of violence at Sawai Madhopor and elsewhere in the state. Despite assurance from the state government after every incident it was observed that violence against minorities continues unabated and Christians and Muslims here are treated as second class citizens. In this regard, Rajasthan Muslim Forum in co-ordination with various social and human rights organisations have written a letter to UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi hoping that she would address the issue by directing the chief minister of Rajasthan to protect the lives and properties of the minorities and at the same time to take stern action against criminals, communal forces and errant officials. The minorities of this state are jittery and in a predicament over their continued support to the Congress in the state for they had expected a lot from the party that claims to be committed to secularism and social justice. Copy of the letter has also been sent to the prime minister and home minister.
In April 2010, Congress village Sarpanch of Balesar village, Jodhpur District, led a drive for widening of market road in a selective manner, targeting only Muslim houses and their Idgah. Hindu houses/shops, belonging to his community (Malis 'gardners') were kept out of the demolition drive. Local Muslims protested against this discrimination. Till today the Eidgah remains un-repaired. What is sad is that the Sarpanch, belonging to the community of the CM Gehlot, led his community to attack Muslims despite warning from the Superintendent of Police.
In May 2010, two criminals–a Muslim and one from Meena tribe–had conflict of interest in liquor and extortion business. The Muslim criminal killed the Meena youth. The culprit was arrested with the help of the local people. Hindutva activists instigated and organized local tribals to attack law abiding innocent Muslim villagers. In the very presence of district SP and Collector, about 80 houses and several shops, workshops, standing crops and live stocks of Muslims were looted, damaged and destroyed. Even the cow of a Muslim was killed to provoke further communal violence on a larger scale. Culprits are still roaming free and threatening the local Muslims.
In September 2010, Hindu activists mainly from the Meena tribe attacked Muslims and destroyed their properties. The violence came to a halt only when the police opened fire. Three people from the Meena tribe were killed in the police firing. Angered by the deaths of rioters in police firing, the Hindu fringe elements attacked innocent Muslim villagers of Semli Haat, Maheshpura and other villages. Almost 50 houses, standing crops, grain stores, farm equipment and cattle were looted, damaged and burnt. Muslims fled. A police station was burnt. Some journalists were also attacked. For almost a month neither the District Magistrate nor the SP visited the affected villages.
The incident of Soorwal village, Sawaimadhopur district where a police circle Inspector Phool Mohammad was burnt alive while on duty is shameful and describes the gory tale of the state and its law and order situation which seems to be at the mercy of hooligans and criminals. The family of late Phool Muhammad and human rights organizations are demanding an inquiry and suspension of police officers and the DM for dereliction of duty. Late Phool Muhammad's family has so far not been visited by Home Minister or the CM for condolence.
Surprisingly, brave SPs of Jodhpur and Jhalawar who firmly contained violence were 'punished' by transferring them. The SPs and Collectors of Udaipur and Sawaimadhopur were either transferred or made APOs, rather than being punished for their gross dereliction of duty.
A CBI inquiry into the incident of Soorwal in which three deaths occurred (two murders and one suicide) in a sequence, be initiated and political and criminal dimensions of the incident must be investigated at the earliest. We request you to advise the PM to hasten the process of CBI inquiry so that the guilty are punished.
Responsible district administrative officers-particularly the SP, DM and their junior staff like the Dy. S.P. Mahcndra Singh and Addl. SP along with SDM should be suspended and criminal procedures against them must be initiated for dereliction of duty which led to the death of martyr Phool Mohammad.
All criminals should be apprehended irrespective of their caste and creed. They are protected by some officers and politicians. The nexus must be exposed.
The victims of Jodhpur, Udaipur and Jhalawar Districts still await justice and due compensation for damage to their houses and properties. Rajasthan Government should be instructed to speed up investigation process.
The other signatories of the letter are: Rajasthan Muslim Forum, Sadbhav Manch Rajasthan, Peoples Union For Civil Liberties (PUCL), Jamaaat-E-Islami Hind, All India Milli Council, IRADA Society, Sheikh Jamialul Abbas Rajasthan, Sarvdeshik Arya Pratinidhi Sabha, Association For Protection of Civil Rights (APCR), Bhaichra Foundation, All India Muslim Majlis-e-Mushawarat, Wahdat-e-Islami Rajasthan, National Muslim Women's Welfare Society, Popular Front of India, Masihi Shakti Samiti, Dalit Adhikar Kendra, Dalit Muslim Ekta Manch, Maulana Azad Welfare and Relief Foundation, Tahaffuz-E-Auqaf Committee, Human Development Society, Mansoori Panchayat Rajasthan, Muslim Mahasabha, Millat-E-Islamia Khidmatgar Society, Indian Union Muslim League, Shia Conference, Jamiatul Quraish Jaipur, All India Imam Council, Sheikh Banjara Samaj, Students Islamic Organisation of India, Muslim Youth Forum and Lok Sampatti Sanrakshan Samiti.


Ride with Metro Justice to the Womens March in DC!
Along with thousands from across the nation, Metro Justice will march in the Women's March in Washington DC on January 21st. The day after the inauguration of Donald Trump will see a massive march and rally against his agenda and for the continued to defense of women's rights in out country.
The rhetoric of the past election cycle has insulted, demonized, and threatened many of us - immigrants of all statuses, Muslims and those of diverse religious faiths, people who identify as LGBTQIA, Native people, Black and Brown people, people with disabilities, survivors of sexual assault - and our communities are hurting and scared. We are confronted with the question of how to move forward in the face of national and international concern and fear.
In the spirit of democracy and honoring the champions of human rights, dignity, and justice who have come before us, we join in diversity to show our presence in numbers too great to ignore. The Women's March on Washington will send a bold message to our new administration on their first day in office, and to the world that women's rights are human rights. We stand together, recognizing that defending the most marginalized among us is defending all of us.
LOGISTICS NOTE: The rally itself starts at 10am in DC. Our bus will likely leave around 2 or 3 am. We are still confirming exact details and will communicate those with everyone the moment they've come together.
Sign up and get on the bus!
Allows you to support someone that can't pay full price.
One low-price ticket for those that can't afford full price. These may be limited.
I really want to go and am completely available that day. I just have a vehicle. I really hope for another bus, or perhaps some sort of carpool.
I'd love for another bus! You can count two tickets in on that.
How do I donate my ticket back so someone else can go? My husband and another friend have decided to take our car and stay over Saturday night.
Do you know of any other options? My daughter and I want to go.
FYI: I have found a taker for my extra ticket, so it is no longer available. Thanks!
Interested in getting two tickets. I'd be willing to pick-up Michelle's single ticket if I could also get another!
A friend of mine is going on another bus and I am getting a seat with her, so I have a seat on the Metro Justice bus that I would like to sell to someone. I paid $65 and would like to get that for the seat, if possible. Please contact me via text (585-975-9845) or email (michellerfinn@hotmail.com) if you are interested!
