Most of the new building expenses had to be estimated. The budget was passed (with one against) with the understanding that we will continue to work toward its bal- ance. We are all looking for ways to cut expenses and bring in more income, such as actively seeking rental income. The Board has been approached by several members who are interested in volunteering to do jobs that we customarily pay for, a potentially significant savings. In the 2 weeks since the meeting, we have received more pledges and donations, (all are welcome!) cut back on other expenses and are getting closer to a balanced budget. We fully appreciate the importance of the programs we offer and of the community we share. Each and every one of us are precious and we are so thankful to have such an amazing community!

Few cared about Greece's poor fiscal policy until investors sent shockwaves throughout the global economy and Europe's currency was threatened. Reluc- tantly Germany finally stepped in to try to stem the crises. More recently, the Gulf Oil disaster has focused public attention on offshore drilling. Almost daily for years, the indus- try has shown television commercials with an attractive middle age actress confidently telling viewers how the new deep water offshore wells are more productive and safer. The ads end with a pitch for more offshore drilling to “strengthen America's energy independence.” President Obama and a majority of Americans believed this before the Deepwater Horizon exploded and sunk into the Gulf, leaving a ripped open pipe at the ocean floor pumping spewing thousands of barrels a day into the ocean.

    REFORMING PRIMARY EDUCATION IN PAKISTAN IN THE INTEREST OF U.S. NATIONAL SECURITY A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of The School of Continuing Studies and of The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts in Liberal Studies By Maureen Bessingpas, B.A. Georgetown University Washington, D.C. November 21, 2009 Copyright © 2009 by Maureen Bessingpas All rights reserved. ii REFORMING PRIMARY EDUCATION IN PAKISTAN IN THE INTEREST OF U.S. NATIONAL SECURITY Maureen Bessingpas, B.A. Mentor: Joseph Smaldone, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This thesis analyzes the failures of Pakistan’s educational system and proposes concrete measures to reform it, drawing on local models that have proven successful. Specifically, it seeks to determine a link between U.S. security and a functional primary education system in the state of Pakistan. UNICEF and other global human rights institutions show that educating girls is one of the most lasting ways to increase stability, prosperity, and peace. When girls have the opportunity to obtain an education, their standard of living rises and their families have a better chance of escaping the cycle of poverty. There is a concern within the U.S. that the growing threat of terrorism is being bred among the villages in Pakistan where both education and employment opportunities are non-existent. The education system in Pakistan is unregulated, underfunded and in need of a complete overhaul. Pakistan has consistently spent less than 2% GDP on education, less than any developed nation outside of Africa. That combined with an exploding population has created an environment rich with uneducated and unemployed youth, who are currently being recruited into the anti-American insurgency known as the Taliban.

  • Survey of Ecotourism Potential in Pakistan's Biodiversity Project Area (Chitral and Northern Areas): Consultancy Report for IU
    Survey of ecotourism potential in Pakistan’s biodiversity project area (Chitral and northern areas): Consultancy report for IUCN Pakistan John Mock and Kimberley O'Neil 1996 Keywords: conservation, development, biodiversity, ecotourism, trekking, environmental impacts, environmental degradation, deforestation, code of conduct, policies, Chitral, Pakistan. 1.0.0. Introduction In Pakistan, the National Tourism Policy and the National Conservation Strategy emphasize the crucial interdependence between tourism and the environment. Tourism has a significant impact upon the physical and social environment, while, at the same time, tourism's success depends on the continued well-being of the environment. Because the physical and social environment constitutes the resource base for tourism, tourism has a vested interest in conserving and strengthening this resource base. Hence, conserving and strengthening biodiversity can be said to hold the key to tourism's success. The interdependence between tourism and the environment is recognized worldwide. A recent survey by the Industry and Environment Office of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP/IE) shows that the resource most essential for the growth of tourism is the environment (UNEP 1995:7). Tourism is an environmentally-sensitive industry whose growth is dependent upon the quality of the environment. Tourism growth will cease when negative environmental effects diminish the tourism experience. By providing rural communities with the skills to manage the environment, the GEF/UNDP funded project "Maintaining Biodiversity in Pakistan with Rural Community Development" (Biodiversity Project), intends to involve local communities in tourism development. The Biodiversity Project also recognizes the potential need to involve private companies in the implementation of tourism plans (PC II:9).

  • Breanne Wright the View from The
    1 Breanne Wright The View from the Top 2 For the years of Greg Mortenson’s life leading up to his K2 expedition, the closest thing he had to a home was his grandmother’s old burgundy Buick and the closest thing he felt to love was a crush on a resident anesthesiologist at the UCSF medical center where he worked. Other than La Bamba and Dr. Marina Villard, Mortenson’s life consisted of work and a keen awkwardness induced by a lack of familiarity with his own culture. After failing to summit the second highest peak in the world, Mortenson stumbled into the neighboring village of Korphe. The combination of his appreciation of the warm hospitality he received and the shock associated with his realization of the lack of a system or venue of education motivated Mortenson to return Korphe with supplies to build a small school. The memoir Three Cups of Tea, written by David Oliver Relin and lived by Greg Mortenson, traced Mortenson’s journey of personal growth as he fulfilled his mission to educate the children of Pakistan and surrounding regions one school at a time. In Three Cups of Tea, the problems Mortenson faced with gathering funds, being manipulated by former companions, and communicating overseas resulted in networking that would be useful throughout his journey, a sense of dignity, and true love. Upon returning to the United States from his attempt at the K2, Mortenson kept the promise he made to build a school on the forefront of his mind. His first obligation was to accumulate the funds he would need to purchase necessary supplies.

  • Greg Mortenson Author
    Greg Mortenson Author - Humanitarian Born 1957 When Greg Mortenson was a baby his parents moved from Minnesota to Africa, to the country of Tanganyika (Tanzania). His father started a school to train doctors and also a school to teach children. Greg learned the language and the customs of the country. When he was 11 years old he climbed Mount Kilimanjaro which was Africa's highest mountain. He had three sisters. His youngest sister Christa was a sickly child. After the school was completed the family moved back to America. After he finished high school he joined the Army for two years where he served as a medic in Germany. Upon completion of his military service he attended college. He washed dishes and worked in a hospital to make money. He drove home every other weekend to visit his father who was dying of cancer. He graduated from the University of South Dakota with a degree in nursing and chemistry. He decided he wanted to be outdoors. He wanted to climb mountains. During one climb he fell 800 feet, but it only dislocated his shoulder and broke a bone in his arm. He later learned that at the very time of his accident his sister Christa had died of a seizure. His friend asked him to go to Pakistan with him to climb a large mountain called K2. During the climb Greg became lost. He finally found the porter he had hired, but then he took a wrong turn and was lost again. He walked and walked. It was very cold.

  • Three Cups of Tea ( the Young Reader's Edition)
    The Promise Greg watched and listened as the children sang Pakistan’s national anthem to start their school day. He saw Twaha’s seven-year-old daughter, Jahan, standing tall and straight beneath her headscarf as she sang. When the song ended, they sat down in the dirt and began writing out their multiplication tables. A few, like Jahan, had slates on which they wrote with sticks dipped in mud. The rest scratched in the dirt with sticks. “Can you imagine a fourth-grade class in America, alone, without a teacher, sitting there quietly and working on their lessons?” Greg asked later. “I felt like my heart was being torn out…. I knew I had to do something.” But what could he do? He had barely enough money left to travel by jeep and bus to Pakistan’s capital, where he would catch an airplane to fly home. Still, there had to be something. Standing next to Haji Ali, looking at the mountains that he’d come halfway around the world to climb, Greg suddenly felt that reaching the summit of K2 to place a necklace there wasn’t really important. He could do something much better than that to honor his sister, Christa. He put his hands on Haji Ali’s shoulders. “I will build a school,” he said. “I promise.” Three Cups of Tea Young Readers Edition Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin Adapted for young readers by Sarah Thomson PUFFIN BOOKS PUFFIN BOOKS Published by the Penguin Group Penguin Young Readers Group, 345 Hudson Street, New York, New York 10014, U.S.A.

  • Three Cups of Tea Chapter Quizzes and Vocabulary
    Chapter Review/Study Guide 1 Three Cups of Tea Study Guide: DURING READING Chapter Review Questions and Vocabulary Before readers can discuss the thematic or generic aspects of a text, they must have read and understood, at least on the surface, the events of the narrative. The questions below are designed to elicit the kind of objective knowledge that will ensure readers are following along with and making sense of the narrative. For each chapter there are review questions and some possible assignments that emerge from those questions. In addition, there are lists of locations and vocabulary. HINTS FOR REVIEW QUESTIONS: Beneath some of the review questions are suggested activities for presenting or discussing these questions and addressing the responses in the classroom. Teachers might consider the following approach to using the activities suggested below. For each suggested discussion, start by having students jot down their thoughts in a WRITING NOTEBOOK (also called A WRITER'S NOTEBOOK, it is a place where students can write about what they are reading and studying. What they write about is up to them--it can be a personal reflection, a question about the text, a connection to another book, movie, song, or class, etc.--however, what they write must be connected to their school work; in other words, this is not a personal journal or diary). At the end of the "unit" or of the text, ask students to choose one of the items about which they wrote in their WRITING NOTEBOOK and develop that into a longer writing assignment, for example, an analytical essay or a research paper.
