PAGE MW1 PAGE 2 SPLIT OVER BANGLADESH U.S. Brands Develop Own Safety Accord By KRISTI ELLIS WASHINGTON — There is no unity over Bangladesh. As even more European brands and retailers — along with a rare U.S. one, Abercrombie & Fitch — beat a midnight deadline and joined the Bangladesh THURSDAY, MAY 16, 2013 Q $3.00 Q WOMEN’S WEAR DAILY fire and safety accord with unions on Wednesday, the divisions grew among American companies over an WWD agreement on the issue. “We are committed to Bangladesh and support industry-wide efforts to improve safety standards. We believe this is the right thing to do to bring about sus- tainable, effective change,” said Kim Harr, director of sustainability at Abercrombie & Fitch. While A&F became only the second U.S. company to sign the IndustriALL Global Union-led agreement, other American firms outlined their own new initia- tive to address safety issues in the South Asian coun- try. Their proposal comes a day after Wal-Mart Stores Inc. revealed its own plan to address working condi- tions in Bangladesh. The “North American Bangladesh Worker Safety Working Group” on Wednesday unveiled the “Safer Factories Initiative” that will include short-, medium- and long-term strategic goals for making “meaningful improvements” to worker safety in Bangladesh. The initiative plans to establish a sustainable funding mechanism for training, upgrades of factory struc- tures and ensuring the safety of new construction. Unlike the IndustriALL accord, the new U.S. plan by American retailers and brands and six U.S. and Canadian industry associations is not legally bind- ing and no companies have signed it. Six industry associations, representing hundreds of retailers and brands, comprise the working group. They include the National Retail Federation, Retail Industry Leaders Association, American Apparel & Footwear Association, U.S. Association of Importers of Textiles and Apparel, Retail Council of Canada and the SEE PAGE 6 Macy’s Bucks Headwinds By DAVID MOIN THE “CORE” CUSTOMER made the quarter for Polo Macy’s Inc.

On Monday, February 6, The Pub will reopen to On Top of the World residents and will be serving lunch only, Monday through Sat- urday, from 10:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. with a new menu, new staff and new atmosphere. The Pub will be operated and managed by the Hos- pitality Division of On Top of the World Communities, the all new management team that joined the company within the last two months and that also oversees op- erations at Candler Hills Restaurant. The menu at the Pub will differ from that of Candler Hills Restaurant in that it will offer a lighter faire, such as a variety of salads, hot/cold sandwiches, hamburg- ers, hot dogs and soup, along with dessert selections as well. Although the new menu choice is of a lighter nature, it will be prepared by an experienced chef. Chef David Pigeon, along with his staff, will oversee food preparation and service. Menu prices range from $2.25 to under $7. Dining atmosphere in the Pub is casual. No reser- vations are needed; the restaurant is walk-in and self- seat. Wait-service will extend from inside the Pub to the covered terrace just outside the facility in the pool pavilion area. No food or drink will be served on the deck area surrounding the pool itself.

  • I Wouldn't Be Here If Not for My Family
    PRICELESS ISSUE NO. 77 AUG/SEP 11 Published by Joe Renna for the Sons of Peterstown Sports Club I WOULDN’T BE HERE IF NOT FOR MY FAMILY incent Santillo wanted to publicly thank his family for surviving as long as he did Vand giving him the quality of life he enjoyed. Vinny was quadriplegic since the age of 14. He was hospitalized before he could write his thank you and passed away on May 10, 2011, a month shy of the thirty-fifth anniversary of his accident. Vinny loved the water, swimming and especially diving. He would do it with confidence and joy. He was playing in a friends pool on June 24, 1976 and a routine dive ended in tragedy when he injured his 3rd and 4th vertebrae. The diagnosis was not good. Vinny was quadriplegic, he had little or no movement of upper and lower extremity muscles. He would be confined to a wheelchair the rest of his life and in need of constant care and assistance in activities of daily living. Though the outlook was grave, Vinny’s approach to life was extraordinary and the dedication of his family was virtuous. The shock and surprise of Vinny’s accident slowly turned into harsh reality for his parents and siblings. During the three months that Vinny was in Alexian Brother’s Hospital the family converted the storefront of their home into his living quarters. Santillo’s Pizza, the family owned business since 1912, would no longer have seating and instead would offer take-out and delivery only.

  • Parent Newsletter from the Head of School Dear SDA Parents
    Volume 4, Issue 2 May 2016 Parent Newsletter From the Head of School Dear SDA Parents, This is the last issue of the St. Dominic Academy Parent newsletter for the 2015-2016 school year. It will also be my last letter as Head of School, as I am retiring at the end of June, 2016. The past six years have gone by incredibly fast since I arrived at the Academy in the summer of 2010. Many wonderful things have happened during those six years. The installation of a campus-wide network launched our faculty and students on an exciting journey in technology-enhanced instruction. The STEM program, which we introduced in our 7th and 8th grade program three years ago, has been expanded into the high school curriculum, giving our students advanced opportunities in math and science. Our new building – Siena Hall – was officially opened during the last week of April and provides the Academy with a beautiful space for new programs and events. All of these changes are exciting and strengthen the Academy’s position as a premier academic institution in our area. Each year we have welcomed students from places farther away from Jersey City than we did in the past. They are coming from many places, drawn by our reputation for strong academics and a student body known for diversity in many areas – ethnicity, religious affiliation and economic levels. They thrive by being in a welcoming, peaceful community of learners, where each girl has the opportunity to find her own voice. As an educator with 30 years of experience in Catholic girls’ schools, I can say with great confidence that there is no better place for a young woman to spend her high school years than at St.

  • The Life of George Borrow by Herbert Jenkins</H1>
    The Life of George Borrow by Herbert Jenkins The Life of George Borrow by Herbert Jenkins This etext was produced by David Price, email ccx074@coventry.ac.uk, from the 1912 John Murray edition. THE LIFE OF GEORGE BORROW by Herbert Jenkins PREFACE During the whole of Borrow's manhood there was probably only one period when he was unquestionably happy in his work and content with his surroundings. He may almost be said to have concentrated into the seven years (1833-1840) that he was employed by the British and Foreign Bible Society in Russia, Portugal and Spain, a lifetime's energy and resource. From an unknown hack-writer, who hawked about unsaleable translations of Welsh and Danish bards, a travelling tinker and a vagabond Ulysses, he became a person of considerable importance. His name was acclaimed with praise and enthusiasm at page 1 / 665 Bible meetings from one end of the country to the other. He developed an astonishing aptitude for affairs, a tireless energy, and a diplomatic resourcefulness that aroused silent wonder in those who had hitherto regarded him as a failure. His illegal imprisonment in Madrid nearly brought about a diplomatic rupture between Great Britain and Spain, and later his missionary work in the Peninsula was referred to by Sir Robert Peel in the House of Commons as an instance of what could be achieved by courage and determination in the face of great difficulties. Those seven rich and productive years realised to the full the strange talents and unsuspected abilities of George Borrow's unique character.

  • Migratory Shepherds and Ballad Diffusion1
    Oral Tradition, 2/2-3 (1987): 451-71 Migratory Shepherds and Ballad Diffusion1 Antonio Sánchez Romeralo In 1928, in his now famous anthology of Spanish ballads, Flor nueva de romances viejos, Ramón Menéndez Pidal included the following comment concerning a romance that is very well known throughout the central regions of the Iberian Peninsula, particularly among shepherds: This attractive, authentically pastoral ballad, of purely rustic origin, had its origin, I believe, among the shepherds of Extremadura, where it is widely sung today, accompanied by the rebec, especially on Christmas Eve. Nomadic shepherds disseminated it throughout Old and New Castile and León; I heard it sung even in the mountains of Riaño, bordering on Asturias, at the very point where the Leonese cañada [nomadic shepherds’ path] comes to an end. But it is completely unknown in Asturias, as well as in Aragon, Catalonia, and Andalusia. This means that areas which did not get their sheep from Extremadura did not come to know this pastoral composition. (Menéndez Pidal 1928:291). Years later, in 1953, Menéndez Pidal was to modify his commentary on the ballad’s geographic diffusion, extending it to “all provinces crossed by the great paths of migration, those of León and Segovia, which go from the valleys of Alcudia, south of the Guadiana, to the Cantabrian mountains and El Bierzo,” and would now make no defi nite statement concerning the composition’s exact origin (Menéndez Pidal 1953:2:410). The ballad to which these comments refer is La loba parda (The Brindled She-Wolf). The present article will discuss two of Menéndez Pidal’s assertions regarding this romance: a) its supposedly rustic, pastoral character (“de pura cepa rústica .
