Nuclear energy produces nearly 70% of America’s carbon-free electricity. With our electricity needs expected to grow 24% by 2035, advanced nuclear energy plants must be built to meet this rising demand without producing more greenhouse gases. Nuclear energy facilities have the highest reliability of all electricity sources with production costs that average about 2 cents per kilowatt-hour. Nuclear energy should be expanded as part of a balanced energy portfolio that generates more low-carbon and affordable electricity and reduces our dependence on foreign energy sources. Nuclear.

Much of the argument is compelling, Richard Lowry. President Obama edited the Harvard Law Review. but I found one aspect confusing. Mr. Ponnuru says that raising children constitutes a contribution to the Senior Editors Richard Brookhiser / Jay Nordlinger nation’s fiscal health and therefore should count toward tax payments; he cites Ramesh Ponnuru / David Pryce-Jones research suggesting a $5,000 credit per child. And yet he says that the credit Managing Editor Jason Lee Steorts shouldn’t be refundable—that is, families that owe less than $5,000 in taxes for Literary Editor Michael Potemra. President Obama is a noted literary figure. every child they have would not be able to take full advantage of the credit, and Executive Editor Christopher McEvoy families with no income-tax liability (a situation that about half of households Roving Correspondent Barack Obama National Correspondent John J.

In addition, if tax policy Robert H.

  • Women and Participation in the Arab Uprisings: a Struggle for Justice
    Distr. LIMITED E/ESCWA/SDD/2013/Technical Paper.13 26 December 2013 ORIGINAL: ENGLISH ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL COMMISSION FOR WESTERN ASIA (ESCWA) WOMEN AND PARTICIPATION IN THE ARAB UPRISINGS: A STRUGGLE FOR JUSTICE New York, 2013 13-0381 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This paper constitutes part of the research conducted by the Social Participatory Development Section within the Social Development Division to advocate the principles of social justice, participation and citizenship. Specifically, the paper discusses the pivotal role of women in the democratic movements that swept the region three years ago and the challenges they faced in the process. The paper argues that the increased participation of women and their commendable struggle against gender-based injustices have not yet translated into greater freedoms or increased political participation. More critically, in a region dominated by a patriarchal mindset, violence against women has become a means to an end and a tool to exercise control over society. If the demands for bread, freedom and social justice are not linked to discourses aimed at achieving gender justice, the goals of the Arab revolutions will remain elusive. This paper was co-authored by Ms. Dina Tannir, Social Affairs Officer, and Ms. Vivienne Badaan, Research Assistant, and has benefited from the overall guidance and comments of Ms. Maha Yahya, Chief, Social Participatory Development Section. iii iv CONTENTS Page Acknowledgements .................................................................................................................... iii Chapter I.

  • TFG 2018 Global Report
    Twitter Public Policy #TwitterForGood 2018 Global Report Welcome, Twitter’s second #TwitterForGood Annual Report reflects the growing and compelling impact that Twitter and our global network of community partners had in 2018. Our corporate philanthropy mission is to reflect and augment the positive power of our platform. We perform our philanthropic work through active civic engagement, employee volunteerism, charitable contributions, and in-kind donations, such as through our #DataForGood and #AdsForGood programs. In these ways, Twitter seeks to foster greater understanding, equality, and opportunity in the communities where we operate. Employee Charity Matching Program This past year, we broke new ground by implementing our Employee Charity Matching Program. This program avails Twitter employees of the opportunity to support our #TwitterForGood work by matching donations they make to our charity partners around the world. After it was launched in August 2018, Twitter employees donated US$195K to 189 charities around the world. We look forward to expanding this new program in 2019 by garnering greater employee participation and including additional eligible charities. @NeighborNest This year, our signature philanthropic initiative – our community tech lab called the @NeighborNest – was recognized by the Mutual of America Foundation. The Foundation awarded Twitter and Compass Family Services, one of our local community partners, with the 2018 Community Partnership Award. This is one of the top philanthropic awards in the U.S., recognizing community impact by an NGO/private sector partnership. Since opening in 2015, we’ve conducted over 4,000 hours of programming and welcomed over 15,000 visits from the community. This was made possible in partnership with over 10 key nonprofit partners, nearly 900 unique visits from Twitter volunteers, and over 1,400 hours of volunteer service.

Its work is based on the conviction that documentation and active promotion of human rights by civil society is needed for states to secure human rights, at home and in other countries. NHC bases its work on international human rights instruments adopted by the United Nations, the Council of Europe, the Organisation of Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), including the 1975 Helsinki Final Act. The main areas of focus for the NHC are the countries of Europe, North America and Central Asia. The NHC works irrespective of ideology or political system in these countries and maintains political neutrality. How wE work Human rigHts monitoring and reporting Through monitoring and reporting on problematic human rights situations in specific countries, the NHC sheds light on violations of human rights.

  • Chavo Del Ocho
    Chavo del Ocho: Sitcom neighborhood dynamics in Mexican television El Chavo del Ocho: la dinámica de la vecindad en la comedia de situación televisiva DAVID GONZÁLEZ HERNÁNDEZ1 DOI: https://doi.org/10.32870/cys.v2019i0.7084 https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3041-8750 This essay analyzes El Chavo del Ocho´s successful series (1971-1980). My argument is that this sitcom founded its television format on one of the most important social spaces in Mexico and Latin America: “La vecindad” or the neighborhood. Moreover, I analyze how the neighborhood dynamics contribute to represent a communal identity: each character portrays not only its specific version, but also of the collective, the conflicts, but above all, the solidarity of Mexico’s in 1970s. KEYWORDS: Television fiction, sitcom,Chavo del Ocho. Este ensayo analiza la exitosa serie El Chavo del Ocho (1971-1980). Argumento que el programa, como comedia de situación, arraigó su formato televisivo en una matriz importante en México y América Latina: la vecindad. De manera concreta, analizo cómo las dinámicas de la vecindad contribuyen a una representación de la identidad comunal: cada personaje manifiesta no solo su versión específica, sino que también representan una versión de lo colectivo, lo conflictivo, pero sobre todo, lo solidario del México de los años setenta.
