Hunting animals has been done for millions of years. Prehistoric man hunted animals mainly for survival. People needed the animals for something to eat, and they also used the fur for clothing. Today, while people still occasionally hunt for food, the practice has already become a hobby. Some people treat it as some kind of sport; they engage in trophy hunting.
In the United States, hunting is rather a popular hobby. A lot of places in the country have diverse wildlife, giving enthusiasts the chance to hone their skills. For some people, they like hunting smaller animals such as rabbits, squirrels and opossums, while others prefer birds like ducks, geese and doves. Others are more daring; they hunt predators such as coyotes, cougars and mountain lions. There are also people who prefer big game hunting; they target elk, bear, some species of deer, and many others.
Hunting is fun for a lot of people, but since it involves wildlife, there are regulations that have to be followed. For example, there is such a thing as open season. Open season is a time of the year when hunters are allowed to hunt and kill certain species. Closed season is when a particular species is protected from hunting. Open and closed seasons are designated to safeguard species at a time when they are most vulnerable, like during their breeding seasons. These are also established to help conserve wildlife in general, and to maintain the balance of nature. Aside from the wildlife protection, gun licenses are also a requirement for whoever is participating in any form of hunting.
If you want to participate in any form of hunting, such as guaranteed elk hunts, you have to be well aware of the regulations in your state. When you go to recognized hunting lodges, professionals can also provide you with information regarding these laws. They will also inform you on the proper places where you can do some shooting.
First timers in guided deer hunts and other kinds of hunts may feel nervous as they do not know what to expect. They may also have to develop adequate shooting skills if they want their endeavor to be a success. Aside from preparedness, guts and skills, the appropriate equipment is also vital.
Hunting, such as guided elk hunts, can be very exciting, but it can also pose some risks, especially since it involves wildlife. Even with a weapon in one's hands, one can still get attacked by an animal. Safety is an essential issue, and adequate knowledge can provide additional protection. To know more about hunting, state laws and safety, websites like huntinfo.org can help.

Obama released his long-form birth certificate last year, which showed his birthplace to be Honolulu, Hawaii. Romney has said the issue was a settled matter. When asked about Trump recently, though, his answer suggested that he was braver in speaking truth to the audience in West Philadelphia than he was angering the Donald.?"You know, I don't agree with all the people who support me, and my?guess is they don't all agree with everything I believe in. But I need?to get 50.1 percent or more, and I'm appreciative to have the help of?a lot of good people." This was, however, another victory for candor: The need to get to 50.1 percent is the need to do what it takes to win.?
In an effort to improve their secondary, the Atlanta Falcons shipped merely a seventh-round pick to the Eagles for cornerback Asante Samuel.? So far, it looks like the Falcons pulled off the kind of steal for which the Eagles had become notorious.
According to Dave Campbell of the Associated Press, Samuel made a real impression in the Falcons? first full-squad practice of the 2012 offseason.
?Asante I thought did about the same thing he has done to me for four years,? quarterback Matt Ryan said. ?He made a good pick.? He?s going to make us better.? Specifically I think he?ll make myself and our wide receivers better going against him and Dunta [Robinson] and [Brent] Grimes every day as corners.? It?s going to be good work for us.?
The plan is to move Robinson to the slot, with Grimes and Samuel on the outside.? ?I have a preference,? Samuel said.? ?I want to be on the left side.? I?m a left corner but I?ll do anything I can to help the team.? This is a right-handed league and I want to be where the ball is coming.?
Samuel played both sides on Tuesday, and he was eager to show off.? ?Can I get some action out here?? Samuel yelled at one point while on the practice field.? ?Am I out here for my health?? I want to show the people what I can do!?
After intercepting a Ryan pass, Samuel pointed to his jersey and said, ?Deuce Deuce right here.?
Asked after practice about his desire to get ?some action,? Samuel was brash.? ?And I got some right?? Samuel said.? ?That?s what you?ve got to do, put the bull?s-eye on your shoulder and step up to the plate.? That?s how you get better.?
Robinson thinks Samuel?s energy may have surprised some members of the offense.
?It?s a lot of fun,? Robinson said. ?It makes practice fun.? All the talk, all the yelling.? I can tell the offensive guys weren?t very used to it.? They didn?t know how to take it.? But it was a lot of fun.
?You look across the board and it?s myself, it?s Brent and it?s Asante and you?re like wow.? If we do what we?re supposed to do, we can be a very dangerous secondary.?
The secondary recently has been dangerous, to the Falcons.? For the team to truly contend in the NFC, that needs to change.

Cultural values, not knowledge, shape global warming views, a study finds
Web edition : Tuesday, May 29th, 2012
People who strongly resist data indicating that human-induced climate change could spell catastrophe aren?t ignorant about science or numerical reasoning. Quite the opposite, a new study finds: High science literacy actually boosts the likelihood that certain people will challenge what constitutes credible climate science.
Who will be receptive to climate science, the study found, depends more on cultural factors such as attitudes toward commerce, government regulation and individualism than on scientific literacy.
?Simply improving the clarity of scientific information will not dispel public conflict? over climate, the study?s authors conclude online May 27 in Nature Climate Change.
There has been a prevalent view among scientists that skeptics of climate change and its ramifications would come around if they understood the facts, says Dan Kahan of Yale Law School. But studies by his group and others have shown that cultural factors can strongly influence what people accept as truth about certain technical issues.
For the new study, Kahan and his colleagues surveyed 1,540 American adults on science, capacity to comprehend and use quantitative information, political orientation, attitudes on the roles of government and commercial enterprises in affecting risks to society and risks posed by climate.
The survey characterized cultural outlooks along dimensions of individualism and egalitarianism. People with high degrees of individualism tended to have attitude that were pro-industry and skeptical of risks. People exhibiting a high degree of egalitarianism ?tended to be morally ambivalent towards markets because they think that?s what causes social disparities,? Kahan says.
The data show that on climate change issues, ?cultural identity is what is disposing people to find evidence convincing or not,? Kahan says. And ?the study shows this divide only gets bigger, for ordinary people, when they become better able to understand science.?
The findings point to the steep uphill challenge for advocates of climate science and policy to broadly communicate risks, says political scientist Arthur Lupia of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. In fact, some of the most science-literate critics will listen to experts only to generate compelling counterarguments, he says.
In America today, climate change has come to approach abortion in its cultural impact: ?It?s immediately polarizing,? observes sociologist Aaron McCright of the Environmental Science and Policy Program at Michigan State University in East Lansing. ?Hard-core deniers seem to be no more than 10 percent of the [U.S.] population ? which in some ways is good,? he says. ?It means we might still reach the other 90 percent.?

With busy weekends and busy weekdays, we often turn to protein shakes for breakfasts, snacks and additions to easy lunches. ?They are fast to make, include greens, protein and anything else we are in the mood to add.?
I was recently offered the opportunity to work with Nutrition Fix?, a new online sport + nutrition store which offers supplements, vitamins and lots of great protein options. ?They sent a protein powder called ?Dymatize Nutrition?s Elite Whey Protein Isolate. ?We usually buy vanilla protein powder because I think it blends better with fruit but I was excited to try this Chocolate.?
The nutrition stats were great ? 125 calories, 0 grams of sugar and 24 grams of protein per scoop ? just what I look for when buying protein powder. ?
The chocolate flavor was pretty light and not at all overpowering ? in fact, I might even add a scoop of cocoa powder if I was really in the mood for something chocolatey, but it would be great with fruit because it wasn?t too much.?
I loved the fluffy light texture this powder provided. ?And it didn?t have a weird aftertaste like some protein powders. ?
Overall, I would buy this but I would be tempted to try their Cookies + Cream version because I bet it would be delicious!

Computer model pinpoints prime materials for efficient carbon capturePublic release date: 27-May-2012 [ | E-mail | Share ]

Model vets millions of structures to find ones that will improve efficiency of current technology
When power plants begin capturing their carbon emissions to reduce greenhouse gases and to most in the electric power industry, it's a question of when, not if it will be an expensive undertaking.
Current technologies would use about one-third of the energy generated by the plants what's called "parasitic energy" and, as a result, substantially drive up the price of electricity.
But a new computer model developed by University of California, Berkeley, chemists shows that less expensive technologies are on the horizon. They will use new solid materials like zeolites and metal oxide frameworks (MOFs) that more efficiently capture carbon dioxide so that it can be sequestered underground.
"The current on-the-shelf process of carbon capture has problems, including environmental ones, if you do it on a large scale," said Berend Smit, Chancellor's Professor in the departments of chemical and biomolecular engineering and of chemistry at UC Berkeley and a faculty senior scientist in the Materials Sciences Division at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL). "Our calculations show that we can reduce the parasitic energy costs of carbon capture by 30 percent with these types of materials, which should encourage the industry and academics to look at them."
Smit and his colleagues at UC Berkeley, LBNL, Rice University and the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) in Palo Alto, Calif., who will publish their results online May 27 in advance of publication in the journal Nature Materials, already are integrating their database of materials into power plant design software.
"Our database of carbon capture materials is going to be coupled to a model of a full plant design, so if we have a new material, we can immediately see whether this material makes sense for an actual design," Smit said.
There are potentially millions of materials that can capture carbon dioxide, but it's physically and economically impossible for scientists and engineers to synthesize and test them all, Smit said. Now, a researcher can upload the structure of a proposed material to Smit's website, and the new computer model will calculate whether it offers improved performance over the energy consumption figures of today's best technology for removing carbon.
"What is unique about this model is that, for the first time, we are able to guide the direction for materials research and say, 'here are the properties we want, even if we don't know what the ultimate material will look like,'" said Abhoyjit Bhown, a co-author of the study and a technical executive at EPRI, which conducts research and development for the electric power industry and the public. "Before, people were trying to figure out what materials they should shoot for, and that question was unanswered until now."
Fossil fuel-burning power plants, in particular coal-burning units, are a major source of the carbon dioxide that is rapidly warming the planet and altering the climate in ways that could impact crops and water supplies, raise sea level and lead to weather extremes. Even with the move toward alternative, sustainable and low-carbon sources of energy, ranging from solar and wind to hydrothermal, coal- and natural gas-burning power plants are being built at an increasing rate around the world. At some point, Smit said, carbon capture will be the only way to reduce carbon emissions sufficiently to stave off the worst consequences of climate change.
Although no commercial power plants currently capture carbon dioxide on a large scale, a few small-scale and pilot plants do, using today's best technology: funneling emissions through a bath of nitrogen-based amines, which grab carbon dioxide from the flue gases. The amines are then boiled to release the CO2. Additional energy is required to compress the carbon dioxide so that it can be pumped underground.
The energy needed for this process decreases the amount that can go into making electricity. Calculations show that for a coal-fired power plant, that could amount to approximately 30 percent of total energy generated.
Solid materials should be inherently more energy-efficient than amine scrubbing, because the CO2 can be driven off at lower temperatures. But materials differ significantly in how tightly they grab CO2 and how easily they release it. The best process will be a balance between the two, Smit said.
Smit and his UC Berkeley group worked with Bhown and EPRI scientists to establish the best criteria for a good carbon capture material, focusing on the energy costs of capture, release and compression, and then developed a computer model to calculate this energy consumption for any material. Smit then obtained a database of 4 million zeolite structures compiled by Rice University scientists and ran the structures through his model. Zeolites are porous materials made of silicon dioxide, the same composition as quartz.
The team also computed the energy efficiency of 10,000 MOF structures, which are composites of metals like iron with organic compounds that, together, form a porous structure. That structure has been touted as a way to store hydrogen for fuel or to separate gases during petroleum refining.
"The surprise was that we found many materials, some already known but others hypothetical, that could be synthesized" and work more energy efficiently than amines, Smit said. The best materials used 30 percent less energy than the amine process, though future materials may work even better. The computer model will work for structures other than zeolites and MOFs, Smit said.
Bhown said that the theoretically best material will probably have a parasitic energy cost of about 10 percent, so processes that use 20 percent or less are more attractive.
Key to the team's success was using graphics processing units (GPUs) instead of standard computer central processing units (CPUs), GPUs reduced each structure's calculation, which involves complex quantum chemistry, from 10 days to 2 seconds.
Bhown noted that most people believe that some economic incentives or regulatory frameworks are needed to implement carbon capture, and the EPRI's goal is to help the industry identify the best technologies for doing so. A survey that EPRI conducted recently suggested that developing any new technology would take 10-15 years even with adequate funding.
"The collaboration between different parts of the Department of Energy is a nice illustration of the synergy that can be achieved if researchers working on the most fundamental aspects of carbon capture start to collaborate with their industry counterparts," said Karma Sawyer, DOE program director. "This study shows how engineering and fundamental science can speed-up the process of discovery and implementation of promising materials ready to test in the field."
"The hope is that there is a system set up such that, when someone comes up with a promising material, we can rapidly test it and get it to a readiness level pretty quickly," he said. "We are all excited by this work and look forward to pursuing it further."

The team also computed the energy efficiency of 10,000 MOF structures, which are composites of metals like iron with organic compounds that, together, form a porous structure. That structure has been touted as a way to store hydrogen for fuel or to separate gases during petroleum refining.
"The surprise was that we found many materials, some already known but others hypothetical, that could be synthesized" and work more energy efficiently than amines, Smit said. The best materials used 30 percent less energy than the amine process, though future materials may work even better. The computer model will work for structures other than zeolites and MOFs, Smit said.
Bhown said that the theoretically best material will probably have a parasitic energy cost of about 10 percent, so processes that use 20 percent or less are more attractive.
Key to the team's success was using graphics processing units (GPUs) instead of standard computer central processing units (CPUs), GPUs reduced each structure's calculation, which involves complex quantum chemistry, from 10 days to 2 seconds.
Bhown noted that most people believe that some economic incentives or regulatory frameworks are needed to implement carbon capture, and the EPRI's goal is to help the industry identify the best technologies for doing so. A survey that EPRI conducted recently suggested that developing any new technology would take 10-15 years even with adequate funding.
"The collaboration between different parts of the Department of Energy is a nice illustration of the synergy that can be achieved if researchers working on the most fundamental aspects of carbon capture start to collaborate with their industry counterparts," said Karma Sawyer, DOE program director. "This study shows how engineering and fundamental science can speed-up the process of discovery and implementation of promising materials ready to test in the field."
"The hope is that there is a system set up such that, when someone comes up with a promising material, we can rapidly test it and get it to a readiness level pretty quickly," he said. "We are all excited by this work and look forward to pursuing it further."

Round Rock-based Dell is among several companies that made offers for Quest after it agreed in March to be bought by private equity and venture capital firm Insight Venture Partners cheap for shop for about $2 billion, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the discussions are private. Quest, based in Aliso Viejo, Calif., makes software that helps companies manage databases and servers, as well as back up information and recover lost data. Dell, the third-largest maker of personal computers, is using acquisitions to help it cater to business customers and lessen its reliance on PCs. Quest, which has an estimated market value of $2.12 billion, also helps customers monitor the performance of applications that run businesses. A Dell spokesman said Friday that the company has no comment on rumors or speculation. Quest spokeswoman Tracy Benelli didn?t return messages seeking comment. However, Dell has been on an acquisition tear in recent years as it has tried to transform itself into a full-service information technology provider. According to analysts? estimates, the company has spent more than $8 billion over the past five years on acquisitions to bolster its offerings in advanced computer services, storage systems, networking technology, software and security. Company officials say they are intent on buying best-in-breed technology to win more profitable sales both from small and medium-size businesses and from large enterprises. Its largest acquisitions have been Perot Systems for $3.9 billion, EqualLogic, $1.4 billion, and Compellent Technologies, $960 million. Dell?s revenue is still dominated by personal computers, which accounted for 52 percent of sales in the latest quarter. But the company noted that half of its gross profit came from sales of enterprise solutions and services. ?We will continue to make the necessary investments to maintain our progress,?

Canada?s civic leaders will meet next week in Saskatoon, but the mayor of the country?s largest city won?t be joining them.
Toronto?s Rob Ford is passing on the annual get-together of the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM), a chance for roughly 1,600 local politicians to compare notes and rub shoulders with federal ministers and the leaders of opposition parties. There will also be a number of tours highlighting civic projects such as the new police headquarters and River Landing.
It is the first time the conference has been held in Saskatoon.
Ford has skipped the conference every year and as a councillor characterized attending as a waste of taxpayer money.
?I don?t go to FCM,? Ford told reporters Friday in Toronto. ?Since when do I go to FCM??
Saskatoon Mayor Don Atchison challenged Ford earlier this year to attend the conference and join him for a jog along the city riverbank to help the Toronto mayor?s much-publicized weight loss challenge.
Atchison said he had not yet heard officially that Ford would not be in attendance.
?I would hope he would want to see Canada?s fastest-growing city,? Atchison said, noting he has followed the ongoing fight in Toronto over rapid transit pitting proponents of light rail against supporters of a subway expansion. Saskatoon is planning a revamped bus rapid transit system.
?(Mayor Ford) could give us some advice on transit,? Atchison said.
The conference begins Thursday when the big city mayors group ? led by Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson ? will hold a meeting focused on a federal infrastructure program and funding for affordable housing. Calgary?s Naheed Nenshi, Ottawa?s Jim Watson, and 91-year-old Mississauga Mayor Hazel McCallion will be in Saskatoon for the event.
The conference features keynote addresses by NDP Leader Thomas Mulcair, interim Liberal Leader Bob Rae and Green Party Leader Elizabeth May, and sessions on the growing cost of policing, using social media, and the pros and cons of cities selling naming and sponsorship rights.
A number of Toronto?s civic politicians are expected, including a councillor to take Ford?s place at the table.
Saskatoon?s council on Monday will be asked to contribute an extra $47,000 to the conference because sponsorship funds fell short. City taxpayers have already contributed $290,000 for the FCM conference and $10,000 for the Canadian Association of Municipal Administrators (CAMA) meeting, which begins Monday.
The FCM conference has a total budget of $612,000 with registration covering $203,000 and sponsorship $73,000. Calgary?s council recently set aside $1.4 million to potentially host the conference in 2018.

Search engines search domain names as well as websites. There are many online companies that register websites. You could read a few online reviews about domain name companies to give you some insight in choosing the right domain registrar.
The second step is to choose your web hosting service. Many of the companies that register domain names also have web hosting services. You will find that web hosting service costs are minimal. After you have found your web hosting service, you will need to find a program to create your website. There are hosting companies that can give you a lot of help with website creation. You might want to find a company that combines domain name registration, hosting services and website services to make things easier. The important thing to remember about web hosting is to choose a reliable service. There are many reputable companies and with a little research, you should have no problem finding a good one.
The best part about purchasing a website creation software program is that you don?t have to learn complicated computer programming language. Most of the programs are easy to follow and have detailed instructions. You can start with a simple business website with one of these programs and you can improve the website as time goes on. The important thing is to get your website up and running as soon as possible. Most web hosting services offer website creation tools. After you have finished your website, you will need to learn about website promotion or online marketing techniques.
Online marketing is quickly becoming the best advertising medium for small and large businesses. People are getting used to getting most of their information from the Internet. This has resulted in a variety of marketing techniques that work. Marketing companies are discovering that social media marketing techniques work well. Social media is one way to get your company?s name in front of a lot of people without spending a lot of money. Social media includes online forums, blogs and a variety of Internet social sites.

Disaster recovery plans are an essential element for any organization, and mobile security services are taking an increasingly prominent place in those plans, according to a survey from network operator AT&T, which found six out of ten (60 percent) invest in mobile security services with the majority (69 percent) indicating potential security breaches as the most pressing concern.
Maintaining mobility and wireless capabilities, though inherently complex, has become increasingly important to businesses, with 67 percent of executives surveyed indicating they have included wireless network capabilities as part of their business continuity plans, and 52 percent of IT executives surveyed anticipated the spending for mobile security services to increase.
The survey also indicated companies have had their business continuity plans fully tested in the past year, according to 63 percent of respondents, and the vast majority (87 percent) have already implemented the necessary arrangements for communicating with key executives during a natural disaster. Business are also preparing for the possibility of a ?virtual event? such as a potential security breach, with 67 percent of respondents indicating their business continuity plans include such a scenario.
?There?s certainly no shortage of potential threats or disasters around the world and it?s evident that executives are taking the necessary measures to ensure their business continuity plans are in place and actionable,? Chris Costello, assistant vice presidents of offer management for cloud services said in a prepared statement. We?ve seen a strong emphasis on IT security and continued growth in areas of cloud and mobile applications; implying that companies are embracing the tools and services needed to continue operational activities despite potential threats and disasters.?
AT&T has conducted the study for more than ten years, surveying IT executives from companies in the United States with at least $25 million in annual revenue to measure the national pulse on business continuity planning. The company also conducts several Network Disaster Recovery (NDR) exercises each year through regional and international markets, spending $600 million the program, which includes specially trained managers, engineers and technicians and a fleet of more than 320 self-contained equipment trailers and support vehicle. The events are designed to test, refine and strengthen AT&T?s business continuity and disaster recovery services.
Call me biased, but I enjoyed the Variety review of Pink Ribbons Inc. (and not just because it quotes Barbara Brenner and it?s Variety). All the examples highlighted in the review touch upon successful actions mounted by Breast Cancer Action?s Think Before You Pink? campaign. And all draw attention to the outrageous pinkwashing of breast cancer by Corporate America. Here?s what the? industry? insider magazine Variety has to say:
?The supposed beneficence of corporate-funded breast cancer campaigns often masks corporate guilt ? Yoplait, for instance, of the ?Save Lids to Save Lives? campaign, had growth hormones in its yogurt until the company was embarrassed into taking them out; Estee Lauder has carcinogens in its cosmetics; the Ford Motor Co. virtually fills the atmosphere with suspicious chemicals. The single case that seems to outrage everyone in the film the most, perhaps because it?s just so clueless, was a pink-bucket promotion by Kentucky Fried Chicken, in which ? as Breast Cancer Action chief Barbara Brenner puts it ? ?the disconnect was shocking?.?
Pink Ribbons Inc. is a game-changing film that pulls back the warm fuzzy pink curtain on the corporatization of breast cancer philanthropy. Or to quote Variety ?[the film] resoundingly pops the shiny pink balloon of the breast cancer movement/industry, debunking the ?comfortable lies? and corporate double-talk that permeate the massive and thus-far-ineffectual campaign against a disease that claims nearly 60,000 lives each year in North America alone.?
The film is hard-hitting, and unapologetically turns the conventional approach to confronting breast cancer on its head. This makes for some discomfort in the theatre because hundreds of thousands turn to the biggest, brightest, loudest and most readily available resources when they or someone they love is diagnosed with breast cancer. And then in an effort to ?give something back,? to ?do something,? they join sponsored events that require running, walking, kayaking, sailing, or parachuting for a cure. During the film, audience members may well recognize people they know, perhaps themselves at some point or another, in the walkers and runners included in the film. Variety claims that the juxtaposition of the walkers with scathing critiques and revelations about ?pinkwashing? ?mock some very well-intentioned activism.?
I disagree. I didn?t see it as mocking. I did see women whose lives are unavoidably entwined with breast cancer and who are deeply motivated to do something, anything, to put an end to a mounting epidemic that is encroaching on and devastating all our lives?and killing 40,000 women a year. I experienced a profound sadness as I watched the film. I was deeply moved by the tenacity pushing all the walkers, whether or not I agreed with the tactics.
But we?re missing the point if we see the juxtaposition between pink clad walkers and corporate exploitation of breast cancer as a mocking comment on women. The women who walk and run are very clear about their reasons for taking part in these events. Let?s be very clear. The film offers a fierce critique not of these women but of the corporate and organizational entities that profit from this disease and knowingly contribute to its proliferation. The sad and ugly truth made clear by Pink Ribbons Inc. and organizations like Breast Cancer Action through our Think Before You Pink campaign is the reality that many organizations that do both are the biggest names in breast cancer philanthropy!
Pink Ribbons Inc. offers mainstream America the opportunity to take stock of the efficacy of the pink ribbon in ending breast cancer and asks us all to examine what motivates pink ribbon cause marketing. This film reveals the uncomfortable truth that the best interests of sick and dying women may no longer be the driving force behind pink ribbons. This knowledge, to paraphrase Barbara Brenner, should really ?piss? people off and just might empower women across the country to bring about the real change we deserve.
By real change I don?t mean individuals taking on the burden of responsibility to do what they can to protect only themselves. I mean the kind of system-wide, legislative and regulatory reforms that will drive massive, wide-reaching, mountain-moving change that will start to curb environmental causes of this disease; drive corporate and manufacturing accountability; create treatment approval processes that put patients before profits; and prioritize an end to health inequities in underserved communities.
Calling attention to pink ribbon hypocrisy alone won?t end this epidemic. However, if we can move this pink mountain of distraction out of the way, if we can demand organizational transparency and accountability, if we can commit to putting women?s health before corporate profits, if we can all focus on working together to this end we can create the changes that will make a difference.
