4 March 2014. Tawila: A woman and her child wait to be attended in a food distribution center in the Rwanda camp for internally displaced people (IDP) in Tawila, North Darfur.
More than 8,000 women and children living in the camp benefit from two nutrition programs run by the World Food Programme (WFP) in the camp. One is Targeted Supplementary Feeding Programme, which is designed to treat moderate acute malnutrition among children under the age of five and pregnant and nursing women. The other is Integrated Blanket Supplementary Feeding Programme meant to prevent malnutrition among children under the age of three. Through both programs, women learn to prepare highly nutritious food by combining corn soya blend with sugar and oil or by using local ingredients such as lentils and cereals. The women also learn basic child care practices that prevent infection and sickness among their children.

Return to the Western world! We spend one month in Croatia, and sample the joys of Central Europe by the Adriatic Sea.
Zagreb is thoroughly modern and beautiful, with a livelier local crowd, fresh markets, and more hidden gems than Prague or Budapest.
The Plitvice Lakes are one of the most awesome national parks we have visited so far.
Dubrovnik is like stepping back into the 1400s, all rocky hillside, stone streets, towering city walls, and Mediterranean blue sea.
Split is Croatia's second city, perched on the sea and built around the Roman ruins of Diocletian's Palace. We would love to come back here.

The Fall 2010 Student Hackathon brought in hundreds of students from 30 universities to NYU's Courant Institute for 24 hours of creative hacking on New York City startups' APIs.
Selected startups presented their technologies at the beginning of the event, and students formed groups to brainstorm and begin coding on their ideas. Many students worked into the night, foregoing sleep to fulfill their visions.
On Sunday afternoon students presented their projects to an audience including a judging panel, which selected the final winners.
hackNY hosts hackathons one each semester, as well as a Summer Fellows Program, which pairs quantitative and computational students with startups which can demonstrate a strong mentoring environment, a problem for a student to work on, a person to mentor them, and a place for them to work. Startups selected to host a student are expected to compensate student Fellows. Students enjoy free housing together and a pedagogical lecture series to introduce them to the ins and outs of joining and founding a startup.

I grew up as a metal baby in the late 80s/early 90s, and I’ve never lost my taste for the hard stuff. The combination of two of my great loves, heavy metal and computer programming, in one of my favorite mediums, the t-shirt, makes this an instant favorite.
Fun fact: Although not widely known, corpse paint has been worn by computer programmers as early as the late 1960s. It’s rumored that Kim Petersen, better known as King Diamond, was first exposed to corpse paint by some LISP developers who were attending a mathematics conference in Denmark in the early 1970s.
Pro-tip: While real programmers wear do wear corpsepaint, real programmers do not wear nail studded gauntlets. They’re a major contributing factor in repetitive stress injuries.
Please see the camera-wiki article on the Super Program (or outside North America, the Super A). These were joined by a new Pentax-A series of K mount lenses which enable the body to set an aperture automatically. A locking "A" position on the aperture ring is now provided.
Here Pentax joins the movement towards "multimode" exposure options which had begun with Canon's A-1. In particular programmed autoexposure and TTL flash control were becoming must-have features in the enthusiast SLR space.
Unfortunately this also marks a breakdown in what had been harmonious sharing of the K mount standard with Ricoh. They also introduced multimode program models, but the mount linkages enabling this are not compatible. In fact, a pin extending from the Ricoh lens flange can become trapped in the autofocus drive slot of later Pentax models and is quite difficult to get unstuck.

if you're hemming and hawing over where to put your wedding money, just remember this picture if you're considering selling the farm for things like wedding programs...
if you're opting not to make your own invitations, one piece of advice i found was to get one fancy set for a keepsake [if you ask, some folks will do the proof in the fancy stuff], then do the rest in a more cost-effective manner. eg. get one letterpressed or engraved invitation and have the rest thermographed or flat printed. the (approximate) 50% savings are staggering and just as nice.
we designed our programs, had them printed up at the local print shop, then gathered a trusty sweatshop to assemble them. i think the total cost of printing and cutting 100 programs in half was around... $8? i checked out a DIY wedding website for ideas on how to do them, and if i remember correctly, they were charging around $2.50 per program--the package included the two pieces of fancy paper with the program info on them and a wood stick to glue in the middle, but you still had to assemble them yourself.
pretty much, no matter how gorgeous the majority of paper goods you cash out on may be, they're going to end up in the recycle bin.

Martha, Direct Relief's Domestic Program Officer, explains oral hygiene to children receiving free dental work at a free clinic visit in Santa Maria CA.
About the Healthy Smiles Program
Since 1994, the Healthy Smiles by Direct Relief has provided free dental treatment to 1,800 low-income, uninsured school-age children with severe need. Sponsored by Healthy Smiles, one-day free clinics are hosted by local dentists and Healthy Start programs throughout Santa Barbara County.
This free-clinic event was hosted by Dr. Samuel Burg and was staffed by volunteer dentists and hygienists who provided dental care and education to over 60 children that day.
Receiving services are low-income, uninsured children identified by their schools as needing professional dental care that they would not have been able to receive without the program.
Additionally, children received Dental Packs – toothbrushes, toothpaste and floss – that were donated by multiple healthcare manufacturers to Direct Relief and packed by volunteers at Direct Relief. For some families, event the cost of a toothbrush is too much and children go without. These donated products ensure that children can continue the good oral hygiene practices they learn during their free clinic visitl.
Each year, Direct Relief distributes approximately 1,000 child dental kits and 3,400 family dental kits (each of which serves a family of five) with donated dental supplies, which Direct Relief then allocates to their local partner agencies. These agencies distribute the dental kits to the low-income children and families whom they already serve

Copy of Ebenezer's 75th Anniversary Program from 1962, naming Dr. Martin Luther King, St. and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. as Ministers.
The Historic Ebenezer Baptist Church, located at 407 Auburn Avenue, features a long history of civil rights, but is most famous for its association with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. It was here that Dr. King was baptized in 1936, gave his first sermon in the fall of 1947, and was ordained in February, 1948. He served as co-pastor with his father until he left to Crozer Theological Seminary in September 1948, and as Ebenezer's associate minister during his breaks from Seminary and his doctoral studies at Boston University School of Theology through early 1954. Under Dr. King, Ebenezer was often the site of meetings and rallies, including the organizational meetings that led to the founding of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference in 1957. He later returned as co-pastor with his father, serving from 1960 until his assassination in 1968. On April 9, 1968, a private funeral service, filled with 1,300 people, was held for Dr. King at Ebenezer, followed by a three-mile procession to his alma mater, Morehouse College, for a public service.
The church was founded in 1886 by its first minister, John Andrew Parker. In 1893 Reverend Adam Daniel (A.D.) Williams, the son of a slave preacher and Dr. King's maternal grandfather, became the church's second pastor. Under Williams, the church grew exponentially and moved twice before the current new church building was constructed from over an extended period of time, from 1914 to 1922, with some finishing touches not complete into the 1930's and 40's. No architect has been identified for the Late Gothic Revival design, although some oral traditions credit Rev. Williams.
In 1933, Reverend Martin Luther King, Sr., took over as Ebenezer's third pastor, a position he'd hold until his retirement in 1975. Alterations designed by Edward C. Miller in 1955-56 introduced the Christian Education Building, connected by an elevated walkway, a redesigned interior, and a baptismal pool. In 1970, Muldawer & Patterson in association with J.W. Robinson designed a new vestibule in front of the education building and made interior alterations. A four-year, 8-million restoration returning the church to its 1960's appearance was completed in 2011.
The Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historic Site, an area of about 2 blocks around Auburn Avenue, was established by the National Park Service (NPS) on October 10, 1980. The historic site includes King's gravesite; the historic Fire Station No. 6; the "I Have a Dream" International World Peace Rose Garden; and the International Civil Rights Walk of Fame.
The Martin Luther King, Jr. Historic District, an area bound roughly by Irwin, Randolph, Edgewood, and Auburn Avenues, was established in 1974 and later, in 1977 designated a national historic landmark, and expanded in 2001. The district encompasses the environs in which Martin Luther King, Jr., grew up from his birth in 1929 until he left Atlanta.

The 10-point program of the Patriot Party, a white left-wing revolutionary organization aligned with the Black Panther Party, was published in October 1969..
The Patriot Party was initially formed as the Young Patriots Organization in Chicago and later expanded nationwide as the Patriot Party. It was one of the component organizations of Black Panther Fred Hampton’s Rainbow Coalition in Chicago.
They rejected white supremacy but wore a confederate flag patch on their shirts.
They organized in the Washington, D.C. area 1970-71 out of the Panther office and the Panther’s Community Center focusing on far southeast Washington where working class whites still lived and the inner suburbs of Prince George’s County.
The Patriots struggled in the D.C. as Arthur Turco, one of the leaders of the national organization, was indicted in May 1970 for ordering the killing of Baltimore Black Panther suspected of being an informant. The indictment of Turco and a number of Baltimore Panthers consumed much of the effort by Patriot organizers in the Washington area.
The organization was not related to the later right wing organization of the same name.

El 6 de enero próximo comenzará en Viña del Mar, el programa de natación “Actividades Acuáticas Verano 2015”, que tradicionalmente el municipio local, a través de la Casa del Deporte imparte en forma gratuita en diferentes sectores de la comuna.
El lanzamiento oficial de estos exitosos cursos que en los últimos siete años han beneficiado a más de 50 mil personas, lo realizó la alcaldesa Virginia Reginato, durante una ceremonia efectuada en la piscina del Complejo Municipal de Gómez Carreño, y en la que además estuvieron presentes la concejala Mafalda Reginato, el director de la Casa del Deporte, Javier Aravena y el presidente la Junta de Vecinos, Juan Guerrero.
En la oportunidad, la jefa comunal viñamarina procedió a premiar a Rodrigo Silva Cabrera, Constanza Ramírez Gómez, Almendra Armijo Inostroza, y Nicolás Molina Vidal, cuatro jóvenes nadadores pertenecientes a las Escuelas Deportivas Municipales de Buceo y Natación, quienes se han destacado en torneos internacionales, nacionales y regionales.
Además la alcaldesa Virginia Reginato, hizo entrega de la nueva implementación para la realización de los cursos.
Al hacer uso de la palabra, la edil destacó el gran interés que todos los años despierta este programa.
“La importancia de estos cursos se fundamenta en la premisa de lo importante que es para el ser humano saber nadar. Es por esa razón que por décimo año consecutivo hemos querido implementar estas clases, que no tienen otro objetivo que enseñar a nadar a quienes aún no saben, perfeccionar a los que han aprendido con nosotros y fomentar la práctica deportiva en familia a través de la natación, durante los meses de enero y febrero”, señaló la alcaldesa Virginia Reginato.
Javier Aravena, director de la Casa del Deporte, en tanto indicó que “este año a las 5 piscinas que ya están habilitadas, se sumará en la primera quincena de enero la de Miraflores, un moderno recinto que los vecinos del sector podrán disfrutar. Durante los meses de enero y febrero, esperamos que cerca de 15 mil personas asistan a participar en los cursos de natación e hidrogimnasia, como así también a bañarse junto a su familia”.
Agregó que “si bien la entrada es gratuita, la piscina propiamente tal tiene una capacidad máxima de 200 personas”.
El programa “Actividades Acuáticas 2015”, contempla cursos correspondientes a cuatro períodos con tres niveles de aprendizaje distintos, dependiendo del grado de avance del alumno, y de los talleres de Hidrogimnasia para los mayores.
Además los niños y jóvenes que saben nadar y tienen un avance en la técnica podrán integrarse a las selecciones de cada piscina.
Las clases serán impartidas por profesores de Educación Física especializados y se llevarán a cabo a contar del 6 de enero hasta el 28 de febrero inclusive, en las piscinas municipales de: Nueva Aurora, Villa Dulce, Miraflores, Achupallas, Gómez Carreño y Reñaca Alto.
Las fechas de los cursos son las siguientes:
Primer Período: 6 al 17 de enero.
Segundo Período: 20 al 31 de enero
Tercer Período: 3 al 14 de febrero
Cuarto Período: 17 al 28 de febrero
Cabe destacar que entre las 15.00 y las 19.00 horas las piscinas están abiertas a la comunidad, con el objeto que todas las familias puedan disfrutar de ellas, previa inscripción para la obtención de un carné identificatorio.
Este trámite lo interesados podrán realizarlo a contar de este jueves 18 del presente, directamente en la piscina correspondiente a su sector o bien solicitar mayores informaciones en la Casa del Deporte, ubicada en 5 oriente esquina 7 Norte o llamando a los teléfonos 2184674.
