The Artificial Lake Park in Tirana is turning into the favorite building site of the Municipality of Tirana. After the construction, in violation of the Aarhus Convention and a series of national laws, of the children’s playground and the plans to build a hotel, it now appears that Mayor Veliaj is planning to turn the park completely into an urbanized zone.
Even though only school buses are allowed to enter the park, as signaled by a sign at its entrance, personal cars have been using the park throughout the day freely without a policeman in sight.
However, this is not the only legal violation happening within the Lake Park. Mayor Veliaj has decided to build a new road, broader than the currently existing one, up to the Wilson School.
All these interventions into the Lake Park are happening under a regime of complete intransparency. There is no information sign at the beginning of the work site, as required by law; there is no information available of which company is doing the work; there is no information on when the work is supposed to be finished; and finally, the Municipality of Tirana has failed to organize public hearings about these interventions, as required by the Aarhus Convention and the Law on Public Hearings.
And if this weren’t enough, other roads are constructed throughout the park, fully urbanizing an environment that before consisted of solely forest.

Survey: More Bulgarians are Satisfied with their Standard of Living Now compared to 2018Society | March 29, 2023, Wednesday // 12:57| views
Bulgarians are happier and more satisfied compared to 2018, and the share of those who think that their happiness depends entirely on themselves is increasing. This is shown by a study by the marketing consulting and research agency BluePo!nt, dedicated to the happiness of Bulgarians.
The research was conducted in February this year among the urban population.
The agency conducted the same survey in 2018 and set out to compare the data. The research is divided according to 3 indicators - personal happiness, happiness in the work environment, happiness in the family.
73.7% of respondents from 2023 answered that they were satisfied with their standard of living, in 2018 the percentage was lower - 67.3%.
The understanding of happiness goes through the concepts of health, tranquility, family, loved ones, satisfaction, love, he commented.
Data from 2023 shows that 42.0% of survey participants say that happiness depends entirely on them, in 2018 the percentage was lower - 38.1%.
To the question "What makes us happy?" respondents indicated the answer "To provide a better future for their children" with the highest degree of significance - 70.6%. It is followed by the answer "Being financially independent" (57.4).
"Freedom in the workplace will be valued more and more," said psychologist Mladen Vladimirov, who was invited to comment on the results of the study.
"The data indicate that some of the respondents work part-time, others indicate that they are in another type of employment, more and more people will choose to be freelancers," said Vladimirov. He added that the research shows the direction of the demands of employees to managers - time for themselves, time to travel, experience of a 4-day work week.
There were 521 participants in the study. 59.9% were women and 40.1% were men. The study was conducted with persons over 18 years of age, with a relatively equal distribution in the different age groups. The research is quantitative and conducted entirely online.
According to the World Happiness Report commissioned by the United Nations this year, Bulgaria ranks 77th out of 137 countries, putting the country in last place among the EU countries.

New construction and desirable affordable homes have sent average property values up as much as 31 per cent in some cities across York Region and 17 per cent in Durham, according to the latest property value assessment.
Assessment notices started arriving last week in the mailboxes of residents of York and Durham, with the remainder in the GTA to follow at the end of October. The Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) conducts assessments every four years in Ontario to help determine the level of property tax each homeowner should pay.
“It makes sense, just based on the market conditions we’ve seen over the past few years, certainly as we’ve come out of the recession and definitely through the end of 2011,” said Jason Mercer, senior manager of market analysis with the Toronto Real Estate Board.
The assessment provides a snapshot of the presumed value of your property as of Jan. 1, 2012.
Generally speaking, if your new assessment is in line with the average increase in your municipality or region, your taxes will stay the same (subject, of course, to political decisions to raise the general tax rate). If your home’s value has risen more than the average, your taxes will increase. Similarly, if it has risen less than the average, your taxes will decrease.
The average increase in York Region is 27.2 per cent; in Durham Region, 13.8 per cent. Both numbers represent the increase in value since the last assessment, in 2008.
The increases will be applied incrementally over the next four years, meaning those facing a boost in property taxes won’t see a huge jump all at once in 2013.
Within York Region, homeowners in Markham, Richmond Hill and Vaughan saw the most significant boost in their property values. That means residents in those areas will bear a greater burden of the regional tax.
“The rate of change is greater in the Markham-Vaughan area than it is in places like Georgina, further out. That’s reasonable from the perspective that the demand is coming or emanating from Toronto itself,” said Larry Hummel, chief assessor at MPAC.
The highest rise in property values within Durham Region was in Pickering, where assessments rose by an average of 17.2 per cent.
“If you look at single-detached home prices in Durham versus a lot of other parts of the Greater Toronto Area, you’d be able to get a good-sized house on a good-sized lot for a relatively cheaper price than some other parts of the GTA,” Mercer said.
“Durham Region didn’t go up as strongly as York, but still did relatively well. The increase across Ontario was 18 per cent on average,” Hummel said.
Assessments will be mailed out to Halton and Peel Region homeowners starting Oct. 22. Toronto property assessments will hit the mail Oct. 29.
How is your home assessed?
MPAC looks at numerous factors when making its assessment, including local home sales, property size, outdoor improvements, fireplaces and the age of the house.
The assessment informs property tax calculations, though how much you actually end up paying next year will also depend on whether elected officials decide on a blanket increase for everybody.
Enid Slack, director of the Institute on Municipal Finance and Governance at the University of Toronto explains that the municipality will adjust the base tax rate so that homeowners whose property value has risen by exactly the average amount — 27.4 per cent in York Region, for example — won’t see any change in their tax bill.
Those whose assessment has risen less or more than the average, however, will see a change in their property tax proportional to the difference in value.
“The property tax is a way to pay for local government services in as fair a way as possible,” Slack explained. “What the assessment base provides is a way to distribute those taxes among taxpayers.”

Learn About Casino Games To Improve Your Game
When sm 카지노 you think of casino games, what can you see? You might think of slots, roulette or blackjack. But you’d be wrong. Many people don’t understand that there are a huge selection of other casino games available out there. These games range from table games like poker to video gaming like Dance Revolution.
Slots are perhaps the most popular of most casino games. There are even commercials on TV for slots where in fact the game is played in a casino. If you’ve ever played a slot machine, you then know that the odds are against you and that you’ll probably lose each time you play. Nevertheless, you must stay with it and hope that the jackpot will eventually appear.
Roulette is another casino favorite. People love to play roulette because it is a very easy game to understand. It is also a game that is influenced by luck. The good news for anybody who don’t know how to play roulette is that it is a game you can figure out how to play. All it requires is some patience and practice.
Video and cards are very popular as well. Many people enjoy playing video games. The most effective things about video games is that they let you make your own virtual enemies and rise against them in order to beat them. Card games are excellent too because they permit you to play against someone in a very friendly game that does not require you to spend hardly any money. It is possible to win a card game just by having a simple strategy.
No one can deny that poker is a popular game. When you play poker, you are against other folks, not abstract machines. While you might feel a bit intimidated initially, with a little bit of practice you can easily commence to understand the rules of the game and use your skills to become a powerful poker player. Lots of people actually begin doing offers like blackjack or roulette online in order to practice their game skills without putting themselves at any risks.
A lot of people who go to casinos do not know what they are actually playing. Because of this, they end up spending lots of money on casino games they don’t even like to play. Instead of engaging in these kinds of situations, you should try to figure out everything you personally like to do and find out which casino games you can play that would help you accomplish this. Generally, you will end up doing offers that you actually like, and you may come away from the casino with more of an experience than if you had just stayed home playing video poker.
When you attend a casino, you have the opportunity to watch the game showrooms in action. When you see these game showrooms it is possible to start to see the different games that are available for you to play. In lots of of these games you can find slot games and you may simply choose one that you think you’ll enjoy playing. In some cases, you may find that you truly get drawn into table games that you haven’t even heard of before. By seeing the various types of games that are available you can end up choosing the game that you’re going to end up enjoying the most.
Choosing casino games is very important to enable you to come away from the casino with an excellent experience. If you don’t know what you are doing, then you might easily spend a lot of money on games that you don’t really care for. Once you figure out what you prefer to play, you can then utilize this knowledge to pick out the games that you really want to play them often.

Let's try that again... Julia from "The World is My Oyster" has a fun blog topic: Stuffing blanks instead of Turkey. Let's go:
1. My Thanksgiving plans this year will include hosting the family dinner -- my extended family and my aunt and cousins for the turkey dinner with all the fixings. Then turkey sandwiches several hours later when the rest of the cousins come from their first meal.
2. My favorite Thanksgiving was ... hard to narrow down to just one, really. It's my favorite holiday: family, great food, relaxing. Better even than Christmas in my book (except that on Christmas we have beef brisket, which I much prefer over turkey).
3. My signature Thanksgiving dish is Pritz Pie. It may not be spelled correctly, because it's a Dutch word. I once attempted to make a cheesecake that I'd found a recipe for in a magazine. Keep in mind that I don't cook. Ever, really. But for some reason I thought I'd give it a shot. Impress everybody. That. So. Didn't. Happen. I'm not exactly sure what I did wrong (besides attempt to spend time in the kitchen) but nobody would try it. Not even me. Finally my Aunt Coral caved and tried a bit. She promptly ran to the trash can and spit it out. Much laughing ensued and it ended up with the name Pritz (which I'm sure mean's tastes-like-shit in Dutch) Pie. I was so traumatized by the whole thing I haven't stepped foot in the kitchen since.
4. My favorite Thanksgiving food is my Aunt Coral's homemade stuffing. Yum, yum, yum. But generally speaking I like almost all of the TG side dishes. What a feast.
5. Thanksgiving free association! Stuffing... cranberry... pecan pie... Cheesecake Factory Pumpkin cheesecake... Chicago... cold... snow on Thanksgiving... playing bball outside on a warm TG with my cousins.
6. Thanksgiving is about family and food fest.
7. I am thankful for so many things, but family, friends, and good health top the list.
This is what my niece is making for decorations this year -- an apple turkey!Fatherhood site at About.com

Toyota Shipping Recall Parts This Week
Toyota said Monday it would start shipping parts to dealers for repairing accelerator pedals in 2.3 million cars and trucks this week, vowing to move as quickly as possible.
The Japanese automaker said it had designed a steel reinforcement bar for the pedals to keep them from sticking in certain situations, and that the repair would take about 30 minutes per vehicle. Toyota had already planned to shut down or curtail production at six North American assembly plants this week, and said its supplier was shipping a revised design to its factories.
"Nothing is more important to us than the safety and reliability of the vehicles our customers drive," said Jim Lentz, president and chief operating officer of Toyota's U.S. sales arm. "We deeply regret the concern that our recalls have caused for our customers and we are doing everything we can - as fast as we can - to make things right."
Lentz also apologized in a video to customers posted online Monday morning.
The automaker did not say when sales of the eight models covered by the recall would resume; the models account for nearly 60 percent of Toyota's sales. Dealers have to repair any cars and trucks they have in stock before they can be sold.
The pedal recall, along with the expansion of a separate recall to 5.4 million vehicles of floor mats that could trap pedals open, has raised several questions about how Toyota responded to consumer complaints of sudden acceleration. Combined, the two recalls cover 5.6 million vehicles in the United States.
The automaker faces two congressional hearings on the recalls, including one set for Thursday.
Toyota said in its release that some dealers would stay open 24 hours to provide repairs for the accelerator pedal recall and that, if possible, it would repair models covered by the floor mat recall as well.
The automaker first received complaints about the pedals in 2007 and 2008, and changed the parts in production, but only decided it was a safety issue after receiving more complaints last year. Toyota has declined to say how many or how severe the complaints were that triggered the move, but the company that supplied the pedals has said it was fewer than a dozen, none of which was linked to an injury.
Toyota has also said it would recall models in Europe and China for the same problem. The recall also includes the Pontiac Vibe, which Toyota built for General Motors at its California plant scheduled to close.
Several automakers, including all Detroit companies, launched incentives aimed at luring Toyota customers during the sales shutdown. Analysts have said Toyota's U.S. market share would suffer this month.

ECCHR : Towards Accountability for International Crimes in Syria
Le 08 novembre 2017
Concerted efforts by civil society, national prosecutors and international investigators
LIVESTREAM « Towards Accountability for International Crimes in Syria »
As one of the few countries with pure universal jurisdiction legislation, Germany is playing a key role in the fight for accountability for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Syria. In the course of an ongoing structural investigation concerned with international crimes committed by the Syrian government, the Office of the German Federal Prosecutor heard testimonies from torture survivors who, together with Syrian lawyers Anwar al-Bunni (Syrian Center for Legal Research & Studies, SCLSR), Mazen Darwish (Syrian Center for Media and Freedom of Expression, SCM) and the European Center for Constitutional and Human Rights (ECCHR), filed a criminal complaint against senior officials in the Syrian Military Intelligence Service in March 2017. As a further step, the group around Syrian military defector “Caesar” filed a criminal complaint together with ECCHR in September 2017.
Thanks to the tireless work of Al-Bunni and Darwish and the support of the Heinrich Böll Foundation, ECCHR has since then worked on further criminal complaints addressing international crimes committed by the Syrian government in detention centers in various locations over the country.
On 8 November 2017, SCLSR, SCM, and ECCHR will, in cooperation with Amnesty International Germany, and Heinrich Böll Foundation, bring together stakeholders from Syria as well as from the national and international level including Catherine Marchi-Uhel, Head of the UN International Impartial Independent Mechanism Investigating Serious Crimes in Syria.
Together, we will reflect on the ongoing and possible future efforts for accountability in Syria. The first panel will be lead by Syrian torture survivors and activists, who are at the heart of the criminal complaints in Germany against high ranking officials of the Assad government. The second discussion will shed light on gaps in documentation and challenges of preserving evidence in the context of judicial action addressing international crimes committed in Syria.
We are looking forward to welcoming you to this event and kindly ask you to register via mail to firstname.lastname@example.org

Six current and former employees of the Long Branch Housing Authority filed a lawsuit against the agency on Feb. 22 in Essex County, New Jersey, alleging that its former chief of staff repeatedly engaged in sexual propositioning and harassment. Tyrone Garrett, who is now the executive director of the DC Housing Authority, but helmed LBHA at the time of the alleged harassment, is named as a defendant in the lawsuit.
The employees allege that the agency’s then-chief of staff, Daniel Gibson, engaged in “persistent stalking, sexual propositioning, sexually explicit questions and comments, and unwelcome physical touching and assault” that began in 2007. The lawsuit, which was first reported by the Asbury Park Press, also claims that Gibson and Garrett—who previously worked together at the Newark Housing Authority—were “close friends.”
New Jersey’s Park Press reports:
Complaints against Gibson were first lodged by employees to the LBHA in January 2018. Gibson was briefly suspended during an internal investigation, according to the lawsuit.
He was then allowed to resign from his job in June 2018 even after the investigation found that he “violated traditional norms of appropriate workforce behavior,” according to the lawsuit.
A spokesperson for the Long Branch Housing Authority did not immediately respond to City Paper‘s request for comment.
Through a spokesperson, Garrett sent City Paper the following emailed statement: “People deserve to work and live in supportive, safe environments. I have championed policies and practices that advance the highest of these standards. I do not condone nor tolerate hostile working or residential environments. I have, and always will, demand that all employees are held accountable for their actions and those that are inconsistent with policies, anti-discrimination laws and regulations will be handled in accordance with the policies consistent with human dignity and respect.”
The employees claim that Garrett “was fully aware of […] Gibson’s conduct and purposely looked the other way,” and that he “failed to take any steps in stopping [Gibson’s] unlawful conduct or taking any remedial measures to address the hostile and unsafe work environment.” The lawsuit further alleges that the Authority fostered a “retaliatory and hostile working environment.”
One plaintiff alleges that Gibson held her over a toilet and attempted to rape her, firing her shortly after the attack. Others allege that he offered them money for sex, made lewd comments about their bodies, and bought them underwear, among a string of other similar complaints.
The Park Press also reports that the New Jersey Division on Civil Rights investigated LBHA in 2016 and found that the Authority “failed to maintain adequate anti-harassment and anti-discrimination policies under the state’s Law Against Discrimination.”
Garrett began working at the Long Branch Housing Authority in 2001, and became the director of the DC Housing Authority in the fall of 2017.

The Bournemouth facility of Magellan Aerospace manufactures items such as pintle pins, undercarriage pins and split chrome halves, all of which need high-precision grinding to achieve the required standards of accuracy and surface finish.
Here, the company has recently installed a Studer S41 CNC universal cylindrical grinding machine from Advanced Grinding Supplies.
“Having been enthusiastic users of Studer S30 and S21 grinders, purchased from Advanced Grinding Supplies Ltd, not only have we been delighted with the performance of these machines, we have also been impressed by the support and advice received from the supplier,” says Keith Summers, engineering manager, special projects European operations.
“I was able to visit the Studer factory in Switzerland and witness in-depth grinding trials that confirmed the performance of the S41 on our parts, and its ability to deliver improvements in cycle times. As a result of the S41’s suitability, and given the guarantee of continued support from Advanced Grinding Supplies, we were happy to place an order.
“The help of Advanced Grinding Supplies was invaluable when we were specifying the machine and its accessories and consumables, such as dressing tools, grinding wheels and coolant,” continues Summers. “We believe that these important add-ons will help us to realise the full productive potential of our new grinder.
“The speed and flexibility of our Studer S41 is already helping in our ongoing quest for productivity improvements. As well as increasing our current component grinding capacity, the S41’s between centres and centre height capacities, in addition to its large weight bearing capability, will ensure that it is able to undertake the precision grinding of all future components.”

Master Abrasives has introduced a range of ceramic abrasive discs for angle grinders. Unlike conventional discs, the grain in Master Ultra Ceramic discs fractures to form new points that are sharp and precise.
This functionality maintains a cooler cutting action and long product life, making the discs suitable for aggressive grinding and blending applications. The discs also require less pressure, resulting in reduced operator fatigue.
Initially available from stock in 36 and 60 grit for 50 and 75 mm diameter discs, additional options for the Ultra Ceramic range are set to follow. The discs from stock have the MRD threaded screw-type mounting system, which makes them suitable for high-volume, high-production operations. Ultra Ceramic discs are packaged in the trademark Master branded blue boxes, and will also be available from distributors of the Master brand.
Andy Wright, national sales manager, says: “We’ve already experienced exceptional results in various customer applications when using ZIPP high-power angle grinders with Master Ultra Ceramic discs, and are now finding new opportunities to improve productivity in aerospace, fabrication and foundry markets.”
The ZDG-302 air angle die grinder by ZIPP, which is suitable for many high-speed grinding and finishing applications, is compatible with Master quick-change holders and discs. The grinder can be used on finishing dies, metal moulds and cast-iron workpieces.

Thanks to the technologies of Holroyd Precision, a major industrial group in northern China will soon embark on the production of its own range of air ends, helical rotors and screw compressors.
A £1.4m order was secured recently that requires Holroyd Precision to supply one of its helical rotor and thread grinding machines to the customer. The machine, a Holroyd TG 350E, is set for delivery in early 2019, when it will be used to precision-grind helical components of up to 350 mm in diameter and 1795 mm in length.
“We are delighted to have secured this significant order,” comments Holroyd regional sales director, Steven Benn. “Although for commercially sensitive reasons we cannot name the customer, it is particularly rewarding to know that in their quest to achieve the highest levels of precision in rotor manufacture, they recognised the uncompromising levels of accuracy that our technologies offer.
“As we are members of the Manchester-China Forum,” he continues, “securing this significant order also underpins our ongoing drive to strengthen ties between the city and China.”
Equally suited to prototyping, batch and volume production, TG series machines are designed primarily for the finish-grinding of helical screw components such as worm screws and rotors after they have been milled to a rough or semi-finished state. Fully automated on-machine probing provides closed-loop feedback of corrections to the dresser wheel and does not require a high level of operator skill.

The compact, high-precision machine tool Sphero, designed for machining workpieces with spherical forms, has been further developed by Thielenhaus Microfinish into a hybrid solution capable of handling the entire superfinishing process in just one set up.
Thielenhaus has designed an innovative trial machine that can machine spherical workpieces, with the highest demands in terms of fine dimensional accuracy and surface quality.
The workpiece is mounted vertically and is therefore easily accessible for fast changeovers. Thanks to the integrated tool changer with a capacity for up to 10 tools, even complex machining processes can be carried out in a single set up.
The trial machine is based on one that was previously used for the manufacturer’s subcontracting work, and is also equipped with QuattroClean CO2 snow-jet technology that enables workpieces to be cleaned using an environmentally friendly, dry and residue-free method. After cleaning, the machined component is subjected to a scattered light measurement procedure that allows, for example, the shape or the gloss value to be determined.
Workpieces with diameters of up to 75 mm can be machined on the Sphero. The machine is used in the automotive industry for machining the joint heads of wheel suspension and steering components that require a high level of freedom and movement for the associated assembly units. Sphero is also used to produce metallically-sealing valve balls and seating rings for valves in the chemical industry, through which aggressive or very hot media travel. Another application is the axial piston pump found in all fields of hydraulics.

The latest Kellenberger 100 concept cylindrical grinding machine featured alongside two Hardinge Super Precision turning and turn/grinding CNC centres on the Hardinge Inc stand at the recent AMB 2018 exhibition in Stuttgart.
Since its introduction in 2017, the Kellenberger 100 concept has been well received. While adopting a modular design, the machine makes use of technology from Kellenberger’s Vista and Vita machine ranges, the Tschudin T25, and the Jones & Shipman Ultramat CNC and Ultragrind 1000.
In terms of functionality, the 100 concept delivers a range of configuration options. Modular construction based on a common platform is designed to reduce machine build time yet accommodate numerous ‘standard’ options with an attractive price/performance ratio for the end user.
Three important features distinguish the new 100 machine series. First, a collision-free, compact wheel-head solution with integral motor spindles and a reinforced casing for larger wheel diameters when internal grinding. There is a choice of 10 wheel-head variations to ensure the optimal machine configuration based on the components to be processed.
Secondly, the enhancement of performance parameters. A higher grinding wheel drive power increases productivity while the newly designed Z guideway produces higher profile precision from the C axis, again enhancing precision when non-circular grinding.
Finally, the service-friendly machine concept. Kellenberger’s service teams were involved in the design and optimisation of the machine. This factor impacts on faster maintenance and service operations while optimum accessibility of maintenance-intensive components is assured.
Kellenberger machines feature the latest Fanuc 31i CNC controls with 19″ touch-screen guidance system on an operator friendly, intuitive touch-screen panel. An option is the newly designed cycle programming or workpiece-related graphic programming.

A Board Certified Family Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner will be able to examine and speak with patients through Bryan Telemedicine technology. A nurse will be present to assist in the patient’s visit.
This technology will also be a game-changer for those providers who are having to travel long distances to rural communities.
“You know these providers are so busy, and then with all the regulations, they’re just to the point where, ‘I can’t drive somewhere for two hours, one-way, to see four or five patients and then drive back two hours. I’m burning four hours on the road. It just doesn’t work anymore.'”
Fleming told a room of nurses and community members on Friday that the technology has proven to be successful.
Along with the E – Mental Health service, the hospital is also working on providing their patients with E – Pharmacy.
“The E – Pharmacy program, where basically we provide pharmacist support in the evening and night hours, weekends and holidays to help the hospital maintain all the standards that they need from a pharmacy perspective. A lot of rural hospitals struggle to have full-time pharmacists on around-the-clock, and several of them to do that.”
Innovative technology, connecting patients with providers with just a few clicks.

Brandon Chavarrin smiles as Monica Watson gives him a style.
As of Tuesday, September 3, 2013
CASCADE LOCKS — Back to school got a bit more stylish for 14 students thanks to “Hair Because We Care” at Cascade Locks School. The event was through Community Education.
“It was a huge success,” said Belinda Ballah, tobacco prevention coordinator with Hood River County Commission on Children and Families.
“Fourteen students were able to get their hair cut and styled by professional stylists Robert Eldred from Salon Solle and Monica Watson from Holiday Spa.”
Ballah said Eldred came up with this idea of helping students transition through the middle school years. He felt that it was important that the students felt good about themselves as they started a new year and for most of them a new school.
“Robert and Monica also wanted to give back to the community” Ballah said. “The students were extremely excited to get a new look for the school year. Not only that; they were able to have before and after photos, ask questions about hair care, get free products and watch a PowerPoint presentation that showed how to put together multiple outfits with just a few pieces.”
Maurices in Hood River also donated 20 percent coupons for the students to use while purchasing new clothes.

After two decades of low growth and persistent deflation, Japan is showing signs of renewed economic dynamism. But to regain its primacy as a leading economic powerhouse and raise the well-being of its citizens, Japan needs a structural reform package to narrow the productivity gap with leading OECD countries, notably by increasing the labour participation of women and older citizens.

Documents from the State Health Services Council's most recent meeting reveal that Texas' 2013 budget for reproductive health and family planning has yet again dropped in clients served since 2011. As reported by the Austin Chronicle, there was a total drop of 77% in clients served from 202,968 people in 2011. This year, just 47,322 patients were served, while the cost per patient has continued to increase.
This ripple effect continues to be felt in our state due to lawmakers' decision in 2011 to slash two-thirds of Texas' family planning budget, cutting down from what was once $100 million for two years to just $38 million for the 2012-2013 fiscal year. In 2012, 127,808 fewer Texans were served than in 2011, with just 75,160 able to receive Pap smears, breast cancer screenings, and contraceptive care. In 2013, an additional 27,838 clients were not served. In the past two years, the conservative attack on reproductive health care has resulted in stripping access to basic preventative care for about 155,646 Texans.
These numbers reinforce the Republican leadership's disregard for reproductive health, which has resulted in more Texans being denied access to basic, cost-effective and life-saving cervical cancer and breast cancer screenings. The Guttmacher Institute has estimated about 1.7 million low-income Texans are in need of access to family planning.
Read more below the jump.Details from the meeting also reveal that while fewer patients have been dropped from Texas' family planning program, the cost per patient has continued to increase. According to the Department of State Health services in 2011, the average cost per client was $205.93. In 2012, the cost increased to $236.54 per client. This year, the cost increased again at $240.10 per client, meaning that in just two years the cost of service per client has increased by 17%.
Funding for family planning services will shift in the next biennial budget, but speculation remains regarding how the funding has been allocated. The Legislature voted last session to increase spending to $214 million in the 2014-15 budget, with most of the new funding ($100 million) will go to expanding primary care funding. There are concerns regarding whether provider capacity will be able to meet the large demand for family planning services, especially now that there is a provider shortage caused by the previous cuts. Sixty percent of these funds will be spent on family planning services, and will provide wraparound benefits including prenatal and dental care for pregnant Texans.
Another $71 million will go to the Texas Women's Health Program, the program that once received 9 federal dollars to every 1 spent by the state until Rick Perry lead the charge to exclude Planned Parenthood, providers who had the largest capacity to serve the clients most in need of services provided by the Texas Women's Health Program. Another $43 million will replace the family planning grants that the federal government awarded the Women's Health and Family Planning Association of Texas because of the state's refusal to provide adequate services.
The Women's Health and Family Planning Association of Texas is now in charge of administering federal Title X family planning funding, whose funds have been used to reopen four clinics that were previously closed due to the 2011 cuts. One of these clinics includes a Rio Grande Valley Planned Parenthood clinic. According to Women's Health and Family Planning Association CEO Fran Hagerty, In just the first seven months of their two-year federal contract, the providers in this network have seen more than 80,000 clients.
Since 2011, Republicans have decimated basic reproductive care by forcing the closure of 76 family planning clinics and making another 55 providers to reduce their hours. It is unlikely that even the new funds available will be used most effectively due to the fact that Republicans continue to avoid spending actual family planning funding on family planning clinics. Until then, more money will be spent on fewer patients who are most in need of preventative care.

is told to us in a little known or read book, named, ‘The Book of Exodus’–Twelve tribes simply walked away from a system built on slavery and remade the world by birthing a system of law (which took forty years). None of those laws were meant to outlast the time they were written for, as all unchanged laws will eventually recreate the same problems they were created to dismantle. The slave state has never been abolished, and is stronger now than ever before.
People can change the dynamics of slavery, simply by volunteering to do farm work. Richer folks can alleviate the suffering of those who are paid next to nothing in order to produce the world’s food. The Wolf program works–read about it–there are lots of swedish looking supermodels in Hawaii volunteering for green farming in order to do just this–resist the system of slavery.
I will be accepting applications from Jewish people who will put themselves on the front lines of the politics of food and getting it to the hungry. This Passover, the Jews can show the world how to leave slavery. (note to the jewish people farm workers in hawaii–there will be delicious and free cakes and greens for you!–free eats!).
We will be feeding the hungry, and thereby become like G-d ourselves, which is our tikkun olam.

Ademola Samuel Oluwaranti, a Nigerian academic lecturing at the Botswana Accountancy College (The Botswana Business School), Gaborone, has won a coveted award for academic excellence in Britain.
Mr. Oluwaranti, Senior Lecturer & Assistant Programme Leader, Entrepreneurship & Business Leadership at Botswana Accountancy College (BAC), was recently honoured as an inspirational teacher during an impressive ceremony held at Sheffield Hallam University, UK.
BAC runs a Franchise for Sheffield Hallam University in Botswana. The award is to celebrate the lecturers who have impacted the lives of their students the most – not only to pass their examinations but that lecturer who is all encompassing and motivates them to achieve their goals as students.
It is a yearly award at Sheffield Hallam University in UK and the award is restricted to UK lecturers in Sheffield. Oluwaranti, however, ended that tradition this year, as this is the first time Sheffield has gone outside of UK to all their overseas partners.
Expressing surprise at the feat, Oluwaranti told News Express: “We lecturers were not aware that there was a survey among the students at the instance of Sheffield Hallam University to determine who the inspirational teacher is in Botswana Accountancy College (The Botswana Business School) where I am. The students’ opinion poll was supervised by the VC of Sheffield Hallam, Prof. Chris Husbands.
“I was surprised on the 24th May when I got a mail that our Executive Director (Our equivalent of a Vice Chancellor) in Botswana, Mrs. Serty Leburu, wanted to meet with me. It was a pre-celebration where I was presented with the first letter on the letter headed paper of BAC and she equally presented me with some gift as a prelude to the July 6th programme in Sheffield Hallam University.
“I was asked to come to UK for the award in the UK. As part of the celebration, in December at the graduation in Botswana, I will equally be recognised.”
Born on June 10, 1975 in Sokoto State, Ademola Samuel Oluwaranti grew up in Lagos State, where he also started his educational pursuits. He attended Surulere Primary School on Modupe Johnson Crescent and finished primary school in 1985. He started secondary school at Government College Lagos (GCL) Eric Moore Road, Surulere, in 1986.
Ademola grew up in Iponri Estate, Surulere. He wrote SSCE in 1991 and was admitted to Ladoke Akintola University of Technology Ogbomoso, Osun State, in 1992. He graduated with 2.1 in Agricultural Economics & Extension in January 1999 and as the second best student in the department. He was the football captain of The Faculty of Agriculture football team from 1996 to 1997.
Ademola did his National Youth Service (NYSC) at Obiora Farms in Asaba, Delta State, completing the service in February 2000. He joined the defunct Oceanic Bank on December 1, 2000, resigning on January 2, 2011 “after getting tired of banking.”
He relocated to South Africa the next day to start a Master’s degree in February 2011 and was a Lecturer at Tshwane University of Technology on part-time while equally working as a training consultant to some training organisations in Gauteng Province. He completed his Master’s degree programme in October 2013 and became a Permanent Resident in South Africa in 2015.
Mr. Oluwaranti became a chartered banker in 2003 and was elected a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Bankers of Nigeria in 2015. He is equally a Fellow of The Higher Education UK, an Associate of the Institute of Bankers South Africa and a Full Member of the South Africa Institute of Management.
He taught Entrepreneurship and Finance modules at Tshwane University of Technology in Pretoria until he was poached by Botswana Accountancy College in August 2015, after being referred by a friend. “They were starting a degree programme in International Finance and Banking and equally needed a Lecturer on the Entrepreneurship & Business Leadership Programme. I was going to be more useful and impactful in Botswana as Botswana as a country did not train bankers up to chartered status, not to mention being a Fellow.
Consequently the offer was challenging and motivating and as such I prayerfully moved to Botswana,” the Nigerian academics ambassador, who is happily married with children, told News Express.

The most important treatment modality when attempting to gain a recovery from schizophrenia is medication. Although medication plays a large role in treatment, it obtains its effectiveness through it’s partnership with psychotherapy. However, the differing schizophrenia medication options are oftentimes very confusing for the newly diagnosed and provide a large stumbling block on the path to recovery. The intention of this article, then, is to provide as much insight into the various medications available at this current time, including their individual purposes, side effects, and attributes.
The Types of Medications for Schizophrenia
When we discuss these medications, it’s easiest to categorize the differing types into subtypes. This helps us keep the information straight in our head, because there is quite a lot to remember. There are atypical antipsychotics, typical antipsychotics, antidepressants, anti-anxiety medications, and a few other supportive medications we will mention at the end.
Don’t let the labels of typical and atypical fool you. Typical simply refers to the conventional, or older, antipsychotics, while atypical refers to the newer “2nd-generation” antipsychotics. Of course there are other reasons for categorizing them separately, as you will see below.
Atypical antispsychotics, while still posing the risk of side effects, generally have what are accepted as less-severe side effects. These are newer medicines that have been approved since 1989, and most recently in 2007. They can be taken as a pill, a liquid, or as an injection. Atypical medications are the type that require patience, because you may need to take them for up to as long as six months before you begin noticing a positive effect from them. This is common with many psychiatric medicines though, and it’s just the way it is right now.
As far as the United States is concerned, there are seven atypical antipsychotic medications that are approved for prescriptions currently. Those are the following, with their medical and brand names, respectively:
- Clozapine / Clozaril
- Aripiprazole / Abilify
- Paliperidone / Invega
- Risperidone / Risperdal
- Quetiapine / Seroquel
- Olanzapine / Zyprexa
- Ziprasidone / Geodon
Clozapine was the first to be approved and appears to the be the one with the most side effects still. There are a couple more that haven’t been approved in the U.S. that go by the names of Zoleptil and Solian, if you’d like to ask your doctor about them. Since these are all relatively newer medicines, there have not been significant longitudinal studies doing comparisons of each other concerning benefits and negatives.
In general, the lesser side effects of atypical antipsychotics are the same as you find on many medications for all kinds of ailments. These include runny or stuffy nose, dizziness, drowsiness, constipation, extra-salivation, increased heart rate, or imparied attention. There are more severe problems that can be associated with these, which include weight gain, hyperglycemia, cholesterol issues, seizures, body temperature fluctuations, cataracts and glaucoma, heart problems, and more. These are to be taken very seriously, even if they are occur to a small percentage of people. Always be prepared and knowledgable of these symptoms so that you might recognize them immediately and seek help sooner rather than later.
A Warning for Diabetics
A very serious warning is on every label concerning patients with diabetes. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration suggests these individuals remain under constant watch with frequent monitoring and blood sugar testing to ensure no further complications arise, and if they do they can be treated immediately.
As mentioned before, typical antipsychotics are the older and more conventional medicines used in the treatment of schizophrenia, but often feature more severe side effects than the atypical variety. There have been plenty of studies that have failed to find any significant variations in the levels of benefits from one typical antipsychotic over another. The reason these are so commonly prescribed is their large impact on symptoms resembling psychosis. These are the delusionary beliefs and sensory hallucinations that are common early in the development of schizophrenia, especially in those experiencing the paranoid subtype.
Among these that are available for use in the United States are the following, again with the medical name and brand names listed, respectively:
- Haloperidol / Haldol
- Chlorpromazine / Thorazine
- Fluphenazine / Prolixin
- Mesoridazine / Serentil
- Perphenazine / Trilafon
- Trifluoperazine / Stelazine
- Thioridazine / Mellaril
The most commonly prescribed of the above list would be Haldol and Thorazine. Many people know of Thorazine as it has made it’s way into the popular culture through films. These are often delivered to patients experiencing a high intensity of positive symptoms to help reduce the severity, but they don’t have much affect on the negative symptoms that may arise.
In previous articles we have discussed how many people dealing with schizophrenia find it very stressful to add difficult side effects on top of the problems they are already experiencing, and will cease taking their medications. This is common with typical antipsychotics, unfortunately.
Some of these side effects of typical antipsychotics include, but are not limited to, Extrapyramidal symptoms (which will be discussed further down), lethargy and drowsiness or sleeplessness, stomach upsets such as nausea, consipation, diarrhea, and heartbearn, dry mouth, hypotension, increased possibility for cardiac arrest, and a dulling of focus and thinking. As you can see from this list, these can all be very disturbing in combination with other symptoms related to schizophrenia, which is why many people have opted for the atypical medications instead.
Extrapyramidal Side Effects
All schizophrenia medications, but the typical antipsychotics especially, can cause what are known as extrapyramidal side effects. The symptoms affect the nervous and muscular systems of the body, which can in turn create difficulties in coordination and general movement. If any of you are familiar with Parkinson’s disease, then you will recognize some of these symptoms.
The symptom that can cause the most intereference in life is tardive dyskinesia which causes the individual to display tics, which are involuntary movements similar to those of Tourette’s syndrome. These can occur in the face or any extremety of the body, or even in the chest or stomach areas. The problem with tardive dyskinesia and these medications is it is hard to determine whether or not it will arise. It may not manifest itself into visible symptoms for up to years after beginning to take the medication. If the medicine is ceased, it can remain for months or possibly be permanent, sadly. There are other similar symptoms that may appear immediately upon taking the medicine, called acute dystonia, which involves strong contractions of the muscles, especially of the face and neck.
To treat these symptoms, first there is an attempt to tweak the dosage to a more suitable amount for the individual, whether that is more or less must be tested. They may also be switched to an atypical antipsychotic as well. They may also be administered an anti-parksonism medicine such as an anticholinergic. Benzodiazepines can also serve to reduce extrapyramidal side effects.
Other Schizophrenia Medications
There are other medicines that will be prescribed to help curb the severity of symptoms associated with schizophrenia, such as antidepressents and anti-anxiety medications. Antidepressents can help reduce the depression symptoms, and anxiolytics can help with the panic and anxiety feelings that can arise. Depression and anxiety both can affect the manifestation of schizophrenic symptoms, and their management can effectively help reduce the risk of relapse. Relapse prevention and symptom reduction are huge benefits, yet a minority of people are using these medications.
Some benzodiazepines such as lithium are helpful in reducing some manic, anxiety related, and depression related symptoms as well. Anti-epileptic medicines can help those who haven’t responded well to the usual medicines. There are some cases where females will be given estrogen replacement medicine, which possibly helps protect the patient from the nervous and muscular system problems discussed above.
These are the main types of medicines that will be prescribed to the newly diagnosed schizophrenic. There is a lot to understand and usually hearing about it for the first time only serves to create more confusion. If you or a friend or loved one has recently been diagnosed with schizophrenia, refer them or take a few reads over this article. It may help you categorize these medicines in your mind to help you think about and understand them more quickly.

Whales and Marine Ecology of Southeast Alaska
One of our most fun trips of the year is back! Join us as we welcome back marine biologist, educator, and killer whale researcher, Josh McInnes for an exciting cruise where we’ll explore the ecology of Southeast Alaska’s marine life. We’ll search for killer whales in Endicott or Tracy Arms and humpback whales in Frederick Sound, as well as troll for plankton and explore the unfamiliar microscopic world. There will be lots of time for kayaking, tidepooling and learning how the sea and the forest are interconnected.
To get to know a little more about Josh, have a listen to our podcast where we talk about Josh’s love for marine biology, whales, and cephalopods. Listen here…
Itinerary – 8-Days Northbound Petersburg to Juneau
Dates: June 17 – 24, 2021
Price: $7,100 per person
For availability and discounts visit our Schedule and Rates Page.
You’ll board the David B in Petersburg at noon, stow your luggage and familiarize yourself with the boat, your fellow passengers, and the crew. After lunch, you’ll have time to explore Petersburg’s rich fishing community with an interpretive dock walk with Captain Jeffrey. In the evening, our naturalist Josh will accompany you to a talk about marine mammals in Alaska from the local Sea Grant scientists. Dinner will be served aboard the David B and you’ll spend the night at the dock.
Petersburg to Baird Glacier, Scenery Cove
Early in the morning, the David B will get underway for Thomas Bay and Baird Glacier’s outwash plain. You’ll get to explore a landscape that has gone through a rapid change in recent years. You’ll discover a microcosm of plant-life as well as a chance to see nesting Arctic Terns.
Scenery Cove to Eliza Harbor
The David B will be underway before breakfast and cruise through Frederick Sound with a quick stop in Farragut Bay to pick up some local organic vegetables grown by Marja and Beau of Farragut Farms. Once the veggie delivery has been completed, you’ll spend time with our naturalist Josh as he discusses in detail about the two types of killer whales that frequent southeast Alaskan waters. In the late afternoon, we’ll anchor in Eliza Harbor with an option for a skiff ride, beach walk or kayaking.
Eliza Harbor to Baranof Warm Springs
On this day, we’ll be watching for humpback whales, sea lions, and sea otters as we make our way to Baranof Island and Warm Springs Bay. Once we’re there we’ll be on the lookout for brown bears that sometimes forage at low tide, and for whales that occasionally frequent the harbor. We’ll also have a chance to meet with people from the Alaska Whale Foundation to talk about their work. We’ll also have time to visit the hot springs and go for a hike.
Baranof Warm Springs to Cannery Cove
Cannery Cove is located on Admiralty Island, known as Kootznoowoo to the Tlingit people. It’s an island known for its brown bear population. With approximately 1600 brown bears on the islands, there’s always a good chance of spotting one on the beach. While we’re at Cannery Cove, you’ll get to kayak, take a skiff ride, and go ashore to learn, hands-on, about intertidal life.
Cannery Cove to Fords Terror
We’ll cross over from Admiralty Island through Stephens Passage to the mainland. Along the way, watch humpback whales that feed in these nutrient-rich waters. Josh will also show slides that will introduce you to the art of individual whale identification. In the afternoon we’ll enter Endicott Arm, a fjord made by a tidewater glacier. We’ll anchor at Fords Terror and go for a hike that includes glacier carved kettle ponds, muskeg plants, and lush forest.
Fords Terror to Dawes Glacier to Tracy Arm
When the tide reaches high-water and the current is slack, you’ll skiff through a narrow cut at Fords Terror that opens into a glacier-carved canyon with walls approximately 3000 feet high. It’s one of the most breathtaking places to experience. You’ll learn about the geology that created this landscape. When you return to the boat, we’ll get underway for Dawes Glacier, where you’ll witness first-hand the raw power of nature as she sculpts rocks and landscapes. In the evening, the David B will exit Endicott Arm and anchor at the mouth of Tracy Arm.
We’ll leave our anchorage early, and be on the lookout for humpback whales and bald eagles as we make our way to Juneau. Josh will lecture on ecology and how all of the places you visited and all the plants and animals that you saw are intertwined to bring you a greater understanding of the ecology of southeast Alaska.
Please note that this is a sample itinerary and it is subject to change depending on weather and wildlife.

PROJECT TITLE :
GI primarily based Management Scheme for Single Stage Grid Interfaced SECS for Power Quality Improvement
This paper presents an improved generalized integrator (GI)-based control with a frequency locked loop for multifunctional three-phase single-stage grid interfaced solar energy conversion system for power quality enhancement of the distribution network beneath abnormal grid conditions. The perturb and observe-based mostly most power purpose tracking technique is utilized to get peak power from solar photovoltaic array beneath varying atmospheric conditions. This management scheme provides unity power issue operation, load balancing, harmonics mitigation, and reactive power compensation. The improved GI management algorithm has a plus of higher dc offset and harmonics rejection capabilities as compared to a standard second-order GI algorithm. To substantiate the control scheme, tests are performed on a paradigm in the analysis laboratory for manifold operating conditions. Take a look at results show the satisfactory behavior below steady state and dynamic operating scenario like unbalanced load, solar irradiations variation, voltage sag, and swell and distorted voltage grid. The total harmonic distortions of the grid voltages–currents are achieved within constraints of grid code compliance of an IEEE 519 and 1564 standards.

'Texas Moves Toward Statehood' Stories Behind the Mural
For over three hundred years, Texas has existed politically as a state, as an independent Republic, and as a province of Mexico, Spain, and France, in part or in whole. Before that, the geographic region that would become Texas was home to a variety of native peoples for thousands of years. Each new arrival of a different culture brought with it upheaval and change, leaving its mark on the evolving society and government of what is now the State of Texas.
The State Archives and Library Building, built in 1961, was designed to feature an expansive mural in its lobby to depict Texas’ rich and intricate past. The mural, created by artists Peter Hurd and Peter Rogers, provides an artistic view of historical events, groups and individuals that shaped Texas history.
This exhibit features selected items from the Archives collections that illustrate stories told in this inspiring mural: life during Spanish rule, a key political figure of the Republic, a German pioneer who negotiated peace with the Native Americans, establishment of citizens' rights in a new nation, the path to statehood, and the story of the artistic vision of the mural “Texas Moves Towards Statehood” which has greeted visitors for the past 50 years.
