(Excuse Me) By Heather Burton —Aud-Cont. and Maureen Lewis —H&HS Photo by Janice Hughes Imagine a department of over 750 employees having to track costs for grants using individual Excel spreadsheets for each grant. In that same world employees must often record their time and activities in two or three different systems. Tracking the status of a payment to a vendor usually involves phone calls or even a trip to the Auditor’s office. Sound familiar? This is the world that the current financial system supports. Now imagine something better…. ■ It all started two years ago with a needs assessment.

  • Source Affiliations and Framing of the GMO Debate by East Africa's Nation
    Source affiliations and framing of the GMO debate by East Africa’s Nation Media Group Rebecca Randall A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in International Studies University of Washington 2014 Committee: Ben Gardner Patricia Moy Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Jackson School of International Studies © Copyright 2014 Rebecca Randall 2 University of Washington Abstract Source affiliations and framing of the GMO debate by East Africa’s Nation Media Group Rebecca Randall Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Ben Gardner, Chair of Africa Studies Program and Assistant Professor, Interdisciplinary Arts Jackson School of International Studies and University of Washington at Bothell A content analysis of the East African Nation Media Group newspapers’ framing of the GMO debate from 2010-2013 adds to the global studies literature on the transatlantic debate on GMOs. The GMO debate has been described as polarized between European and U.S. political approaches and further as influencing the way that Africans respond to this inherited debate. However, newspapers in Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania have unique approaches to reporting on GMO adoption and regulation that do not ignore transnational influences but does not necessarily correspond with characterizations of an “inherited” debate. In journalists’ reporting on GMOs in Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania, they encounter transnational networks of donors, foundations, governments, researchers, farmers and others spanning from the Global North to East Africa. Each approach is described as benevolent—a panacea for hunger and malnutrition or a preservation of Africa’s biodiversity and traditional indigenous agricultural practices. This misses the skewed power balance in these transnational networks, which privilege experiences in the Global North and outline the socioeconomic conditions that have led to poverty in sub- Saharan Africa in the first place.

  • The Future of Our Educational Institutions* ↓
    Nietzsche, Future of Our Educational Institutions 1 Space for Notes On The Future of Our Educational Institutions* ↓ By Friedrich Nietzsche First Lecture (Delivered on the 16th of January 1872). Ladies and Gentlemen, -- The subject I now propose to consider with you is such a serious and important one, and is in a sense so disquieting, that, like you, I would gladly turn to any one who could proffer some information concerning it, -- were he ever so young, were his ideas ever so improbable -- provided that he were able, by the exercise of his own faculties, to furnish some satisfactory and sufficient explanation. It is just possible that he may have had the opportunity of hearing sound views expressed in reference to the vexed question of the future of our educational institutions, and that he may wish to repeat them to you; he may even have had distinguished teachers, fully qualified to foretell what is to come, and, like the haruspices of Rome, able to do so after an inspection of the entrails of the Present. Indeed, you yourselves may expect something of this kind from me. I happened once, in strange but perfectly harmless circumstances, to overhear a conversation on this subject between two remarkable men, and the more striking points of the discussion, together with their manner of handling the theme, are so indelibly imprinted on these matters, I invariably find myself falling into their grooves of thought. I cannot, however, profess to have the same courageous confidence which they displayed, both in their daring utterance of forbidden truths, and in the still more daring conception of the hopes with which they astonished me.

    Issue 142 AUGUST 2ND, 2021 Is there a reader among us who doesn’t dig ZZ Top? We mourn the passing of Joseph Michael “Dusty” Hill (72), bassist, vocalist and keyboardist for the tres hombres. Blending blues, boogie, bone-crushing rock, born-for-MTV visuals, humor and outrageousness – they once took a passel of live animals on stage as part of their 1976 – 1977 Worldwide Texas Tour – Hill, drummer Frank Beard and guitarist Billy F. Gibbons have scorched stages worldwide. As a friend said, “it’s amazing how just three guys could make that much sound.” Rest in peace, Mr. Hill. In this issue: Anne E. Johnson gets inspired by the music of Renaissance composer William Byrd, and understands The Animals. Wayne Robins reviews Native Sons, the superb new album from Los Lobos. Ray Chelstowski interviews The Immediate Family, featuring studio legends Waddy Wachtel, Lee Sklar, Russ Kunkel and others, in an exclusive video interview. I offer up more confessions of a record collector. Tom Gibbs finds much to like in some new SACD discs. John Seetoo winds up his coverage of the Audio Engineering Society’s Spring 2021 AES show. Ken Sander travels through an alternate California reality. WL Woodward continues his series on troubadour Tom Waits. Russ Welton interviews cellist Jo Quail, who takes a unique approach to the instrument. In another article, he ponders what's needed for sustaining creativity. Adrian Wu looks at more of his favorite analog recordings. Cliff Chenfeld turns us on to some outstanding new music in his latest Be Here Now column.

Transfers of appropriations: see Minutes 3. Documents received: see Minutes 4. Problem of limited access of developing countries to some vaccines (debate) President. – The first item is the oral question to the Commission from Mr Goerens, on behalf of the Group of the Alliance of Democrats and Liberals for Europe, on the problem of limited access of developing countries to some vaccines (O-0100/2009 – B7-0214/2009) Charles Goerens, author. – (FR) Mr President, within the context of this question to the Commission, I would like to help explore the routes likely to put an end to an injustice that consists in denying 80% of the world’s population access to the A (H1N1) flu vaccine in particular, and to vaccines in general. The problem is not new. In fact, the question comes up every year in connection with the flu season. Generally speaking, new seasonal flu viruses first appear in developing countries. From then on, laboratories in the industrialised countries start producing a new vaccine. They can only begin production if they have previously obtained strains from the country – generally a developing country – where the new type of flu first emerged. Once developed, the vaccine is only just enough to protect the populations of the industrialised countries. The result is that the populations of the South are unprotected against pandemics. I am addressing the Commission in order to ask it what it intends to do to end this injustice.

  • Go Contex Go Savichv1.Pdf
    Advance Praise for Go, Contex, Go! Vlad Savich’s stories seem to be a reaction to encounters in early life—some real, some perceived, some imagined—with the forces of limitation: parental, political, religious and cultural. And so, he fights, against unfairness, injustice, and unkindness... but above all, against boredom. When he is strident, Savich thrills. When he is ironic, he delights. His prose style is filtered through Russian, Ukrainian, and Canadian French, resulting in a pungent, inimitable and almost unplaceable accent. It is our good fortune that he is so prolific; this is exciting, entertaining writing we are better off for having more of. Call him the rock-and-roll New Realist Turgenev of Kiev, or the tragicomic punk Chekhov of Montreal. Whatever you call him, read him (and ignore the OTHER Vlad altogether).

Spring was running through the streets and alleys of a large old city. Waiting for aventures incroyables, it stirred up my 17-year-old soul that lived for the sensation of big events. Everything was betokening a miracle: the wind rushing into the classroom, trees just about to explode into sticky young leaves, and the immature April moon dropping into my romantic dreams with its calligraphically written “C.” An unknown, mysterious world lifted its veil in them.
