Nursing students from the Arts Medical College of Dire Dawa, Ethiopia, with help from the U.S. Army 418th Civil Function Specialty Team, Combined Joint Task Force – Horn of Africa, distributed medications to more than 900 children in seven remote villages during the second phase of a Medical Civic Action Program (MEDCAP) to improve health conditions in the Shinile Woreda (district), south of Djibouti Oct. 19.
Medications distributed were tailored to the results of parasitological testing of samples collected from children in the area during the first phase of the Shinile MEDCAP. Children were treated for Schistosoma mansoni and hookworms, parasitic worms that cause dysentery, dehydration, anemia and skin lesions.
“Part of the sustainability piece of these missions is the collaboration between our medical and nursing experts and the students,” said U.S. Army Maj. Brad Franklin, an FSP nurse practitioner. “Sharing experiences with the students helps guide the next generation of healthcare professionals in Ethiopia.”
Franklin said the participating students would graduate in a year’s time. The MEDCAP provided them practical field experience to better prepare them for future responsibilities, including how to treat patients with limited supplies and capabilities in rural situations.
“Most cases we’ve only read about and haven’t seen,” said Kadar Mohammed, one of the four nursing students involve. “Things like elephantiaisis and gout, we only hear about in class. This experience will help us better care for the people that need it most.”
In the third phase of the mission, more samples will be collected from children in Shinile Woreda and tested for parasites. Data from all phases of the MEDCAP will be provided to the Ethiopian Ministry of Health to augment their knowledge base and awareness of health issues in Shinile.
“The upshot is that healthier populations are more stable populations,” said Staff Sgt. Douglas Rueff, 418th CA combat medic.
“If the government can show it can provide basic services for the people, the people will feel more connected to the government and feel less sympathetic to extremist groups that come through the area. This helps the long-term view,” he said.

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.

Black Women in American Culture and History celebrated
By Dave Palmer
LOS ANGELES — In his proclamation for this year’s National African American History Month, President Barack Obama stated that the achievements of African American women are not limited to what has been recorded or retold in our history books.
“Their impact is felt in communities where they are quiet heroes who care for their families, in boardrooms where they are leaders of industry, in laboratories where they are discovering new technologies, and in classrooms where they are preparing the next generation for the world they will inherit,” said Obama.
For the Los Angeles District’s observance held Feb. 23, the Black Employment Special Emphasis Program committee chose a woman as keynote speaker who exemplifies service to family and community.
Carolynn Martin introduces herself as a mother, grandmother and community activist of 40 years. She is the current president of the Los Angeles View Park Section of the National Council of Negro Women.
“Our founder envisioned an organization of organizations… we have 240 sections worldwide,” said Martin. “However, we have 28 affiliate organizations that are part of our organization. The idea was not to re-invent the wheel, we wanted to have a platform so all women’s organizations could speak."
NCNW was founded in 1935 by Mary McLeod Bethune a child of slave parents who distinguished herself as an educator and consultant while serving on FDR’s Black Cabinet.
“For us at View Park, our signature programs are HIV prevention and education for women and girls and a program that I love, the Phoenix Leadership Academy for girls.”
The Phoenix Leadership Academy is a summer program for girls ages 8 to 13. The academy's stated purpose is to develop leadership skills while focusing on prevention of juvenile crime, disease, teen pregnancy and enhancing academic achievement.
Martin handed out a flier for her section’s next big event, “Rock the Red Pumps”, which is part of the National Women and Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day Campaign on March 10. According to the CDC, the estimated rate of new HIV infections for black women is more than 15 times as high as the rate for white women, and more than three times as high as that of Latina women.
“The funding for HIV prevention, STD prevention, unplanned pregnancy (prevention) is almost nothing in California,” said Martin. “Those are the subjects that we talk about and why we do ‘Rock the Red Pumps’ to attract young women, because you know, a message from a young woman to another young woman might be more effective.”
Martin made it clear that volunteers of all races and genders are welcome, stating that their programs have a positive impact on all of society; it's the community working for the community.
On the theme, District Commander Col. Mark Toy said that this year’s campaign really resonated with him. He described the person he considered to be the most influential leader of his career… a strong, African American woman.
“For me, that battalion commander who was my best battalion commander was Lt. Col. Yvonne Prettyman-Beck,” said Toy. “When you think about what we’re doing here in Los Angeles, the motto that we have, ‘Building Strong and Taking Care of People’, I have to say that idea about taking care of people had its infancy with Lt. Col. Prettyman-Beck and how she treated me. She showed me what right looked like.”
When I was making the programs/fans, I didn't know what to put on the back, so I thought about what I wanted to see when I looked out at the crowd. Of course! My aunt with a mustache.
