Ending Childhood Hunger by 2015 Roundtable. by jay Baker at Baltimore, MD.

Something spotted on the streets of London!

It's my daughter's Birthday this weekend, so it's off to Bristol for a bit of retail therapy and noodles for lunch!

One of the busiest weeks in a long time, so Alison Moyet in concert on Saturday, Paloma Faith in concert on Tuesday complete with a 42 piece orchestra/jazz band and finally saw the Vienna Festival Ballet perform Swan Lake on Thursday. Great fun, exhausting, but worth it! Will catch up with everyone as soon as I can....

Cattle and Pig Breeding as a source of income for the farmers in the region of Kurpie Białe - (Project #27-0635-01-1). Active project. Small-scale farms dominate the communities in the Kurpie Białe region. The soil is atypical in that it is very sandy and the area is prone to flooding. As in other rural regions in Poland, Kurpie Białe was negatively impacted by the economic transition in the country. Income for small farmers has dropped drastically. Heifer’s project focuses on restoring Zlotnicka Biala, a native pig breed that has almost died out in the region, and also Simmental cattle. With the lack of industry in the region, it is hoped that project participants on small farms will revitalize their conditions with these animals. Simmental cattle produces good quality meat and milk for family consumption and surplus is intended for generating income. All of the project participants have and will receive training on animal breeding, organic farming, and environmental production. Oats and alfalfa seeds are provided by HPI to plant for animal fodder.

A look at the donated food being sorted inside the Maryland Food Bank during Hunger Action Month - September 2014.

A true fresco -- painted directly onto wet plaster in 1933 -- Hunger March looks like a collage of newspaper photos featuring black and white Americans sleeping on floors, marching, and being beaten by police during Depression-era protests. The artist, Lewis Rubenstein, had recently graduated from Harvard, He painted it on a wall of the very museum it's displayed in, Harvard's Fogg Museum. The Fogg was recently rebuilt and reconfigured as the Harvard Art Museums. During construction the wall the fresco was painted on was taken down and then re-installed -- including the original I-beam it had been positioned under.

Well, since her surgery on Monday, she's been eating hardly anything. Tonight, at dinnertime, it clicked in! "Take me to a restaurant!"

 

Ruby Tuesdays it was! And, boy, did she eat! The waiter was so impressed, (and moved by her story), that he bought her dessert.

 

It was good to see her eat.

Ending Childhood Hunger by 2015 Roundtable. by jay Baker at Baltimore, MD.

This poignant shot was captured (some time back) in the slums of the so called IT-Capital, Silicon valley of Asia, Garden City, and what not....Bangalore. With all those unwanted IT development, the human beings are still in the state of disdain. Two meals a day is something which people are striving hard to get.

 

I was walking home after a tiring swim in Sport Authority of India. I passed through a slum and my eyes fell on these kids who were having their meals outside their hut. These kids were so delighted to have this bowl of rice that it brought smile on their face. Hunger is the worst enemy to mankind.
