Islamabad, PK – 24 March 2015 – Media literacy and freedom given to information continuously sways the practices of the industry in Pakistan. This raises many questions about media’s influence on the cognitive behavioral response of the public. To highlight and identify the need to develop editorial space for education journalism; academicians, journalists and development sector professionals, students debate and discuss safety and security of journalists, the psychological effect of media’s exposure. AGAHI in collaboration with UNESCO Pakistan organized a town-hall dialogue on ‘Media and Information Literacy and Education Journalism in Pakistan’ today at the Islamabad, Marriott Hotel.

She further added, we are no longer living in times when one can work in isolation; collaborative networks are the future for planning and decision-making.
Ms. Vibeke Jensen, Representative/Director of the United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), while talking about media and information literacy said that empowerment of people through Media and Information Literacy (MIL) is an important prerequisite for fostering equitable access to information and knowledge; promoting free, independent and pluralistic media and information systems. She said that Media and Information Literacy recognizes the primary role of information and media in our everyday lives. It lies at the core of freedom of expression and information – since it empowers citizens to understand the functions of media and other information providers, to critically evaluate their content, and to make informed decisions as users and producer of information and media content. She mentioned that UNESCO’s strategy brings together the two fields, Information Literacy and Media Literacy, as a combined set of competencies, knowledge, skills and attitude, necessary for life and work today. MIL considers all forms of media and other information providers such as libraries, archive, museums and Internet irrespective of technologies used.
The first interactive session of the town-hall meeting had experts on education journalism in Pakistan. “Education plays a catalytic role towards human development, both at the individual as well as at the societal level”, said Dr. Abdul Siraj, Head of Mass Communications Department Allama Iqbal University. Since mass media have the potential for reaching colossal audiences, the journalist has a vital role to play in wiping out these social menaces”, he added. He also said that Education is needed not only for personal development of citizens, but also to produce a skilled workforce, promote economic growth, preserve and promote culture and values in the society, and enhance participation of all segments of population in decision making at various levels.
The second session focused on the cognitive behavioral response and psychological limitation to learning emphasizing on the importance of using media’s editorial and broadcast content as a tool for molding and changing perceptions to create a prosperous society.
While talking to the participants, Ms. Nausheen Shahzad, Educational Psychologist, said that continuous reporting of terrorism and extremism can be suggestible, adolescents may turn into terrorists by identifying themselves with these terrorists, considering them as reformers. She further added, or they simply become conditioned and show no empathy towards such news, becoming insensitive to world issues altogether.

The session addressed challenges related to access, privacy, safety and security of journalists. Encapsulating basic provisions proposed by the UN Plan of Action on the Safety of Journalists and the Issue of Impunity, of the scale and number of attacks on journalists and media workers as well as of incidents affecting their ability to exercise freedom of expression by threats of prosecution, arrest, imprisonment, denial of journalistic access.

Vorher war an dieser Kreuzung eine Ampelanlage mit unnötigen Wartezeiten. Jetzt fließt der Verkehr ruhig und unbehindert. Die hässliche Kreuzung wurde zu einem schönen Platz. Ästhetik und Funktion. Zum Altmetall sollten aber die zahlreichen gefährlichen und jedes Foto versauenden Metallpfosten.

My housemate did a women's circle tonight to celebrate the Full Moon in Cancer and it was great sharing space with women & working in circle
I highly recommend once a month bonding with people of the same gender & share your emotions with each other & set an intention for the month
You don't have to be a tree huggin' hippie to enjoy this
Society can get us so isolated from connecting to each other it's great to share & connect with fellow 'Sister's' or 'Brother's'
Soul to soul in unity we can find healing, love & growth
High Line used to be an elevated freight rail line extending south along the industrial warehouses in the Chelsea district. Closed in 1980, it was renovated as an elevated park and re-opened in two stages in 2009 and 2011, to coincide with the area's urban renewal.
High Line had replaced an initial freight rail line that had run up and down Tenth Avenue, sharing spaces with automotive traffic (and causing many accidents). Today, gentrification means that Tenth Avenue sees upscale merchants, including this Diane von Furstenberg boutique.
The view is even more enjoyable thanks to the Empire State Building and other high-profile landmarks being visible here and there.

© 2008 The Gospel of Father Joe
Roused by compassion we awake to life as God created it, as Jesus expressed it, as the Buddha and the Prophet Mohammad taught it. We see the holiness imbued in all humanity. Doesn't matter if you're African, Asian, Arab, European; Christian, Buddhist, Muslim, Jewish or some other. Doesn't matter the denomination you pledge or if you pledge.
We are God-shaped and God-filled. Affluent, poor, American, Iranian, Somali, Ethiopian, Israeli, Palestinian. The divine is our common bloodline and birthright. It's our bond in Goodness. We're kin in that way, but we often miss that part. We don't always view our shared space and shared responsibilities from the divine perspective.
- Archbiship emeritus Rev. Desmond Tutu in foreword to The Gospel of Father Joe

My first visit to the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway in February 1969. Rebuilt LMS Scot 46115 Scots Guardsman in Haworth shed yard is still in its as-withdrawn condition complete with yellow diagonal route restriction stripe.
When I took the photo all those cars in view annoyed me no end but now I am pleased to see the 2 Minis (the nearest being a Morris Mini-Minor), the Ford Anglia van & the Vauxall Victor estate (no less) share space with a Scot.

Here is a Tricolor Stromanthe growing in my yard..
Not the best shot but it has been raining here for days so with the risk of losing another camera I rush the shot as the rain was coming down..
You can see one of my Bromeliads sharing space with her which I also uploaded to give you a better view.
LoLux Urban Housing Studio Jonas Coersmeier at University of Pennsylvania, School of Design, Fall 2015. Student: David Zhewei Feng
Dec.9th 2015_Final Review (student description)
“Lo-Lux”: This project explores the possibility of combining low-income housing with luxury housing in one tower by giving these two types of housing a different interpretation in public space - in both domestic and the shared space of the tower.
In modern context, “luxury” equals to “privatize”. Luxury apartments tend to privatize everything to guarantee the least amount of disturbance from others, therefore we have luxury apartments with private swimming pool at the balcony, private gym and home theatre within the housing unit. In this case, luxury apartments are located at the half of the tower which adjacent to High Line in this project. These units have the view of High line, larger unit space and standard layout.
Low-income housing is usually featured with shared space because that’s the more efficient way to distribute space as a resource. Communal kitchen or restrooms are designed for social housing at the beginning. The idea of the Pilotis from Le Corbusier was also aiming at freeing the ground floor space for public use. However, with the development of virtual communication tools, people tend to stay at home to communicate with others virtually, rather than going out physically. Now, the public/shared space for housing needs to be subdivided and scattered.
