The six month anniversary of the installation of a comfort women statue in Glendale, California has escalated tensions between citizen groups from Japan and South Korea in the US. A Japanese congressional delegation visited Glendale to protest the statue's description of comfort women as sex slaves. Meanwhile, a South Korean envoy observed to support the statue. Both sides have gathered over 100,000 signatures for White House petitions to remove or preserve the statue, but the city council has refused to intervene in the international issue. Local Armenian and Japanese American communities are also involved in the debate over how to memorialize history versus prevent further discrimination.

White Gold
The document summarizes the rise of New Zealand's dairy industry to becoming a dominant global player. It discusses how the removal of subsidies in the 1980s spurred innovation among farmers. This helped the industry grow from producing 25% of export revenue in 2011 to making up 33% of the global dairy market. The industry is cooperative-owned, led by Fonterra which has 10,500 farmer owners and $20 billion in annual revenue. New Zealand's mild climate allows cows to graze year-round, and dairy farming has expanded significantly across the country's pastoral lands. Looking ahead, growth in China's middle class is expected to further drive global demand and reliance on dairy imports.

The document describes a business project called Dynamic Exoskeleton Therapy (D.E.T.) created by Alessia Capponi, Carlotta Oro Nobili, and Valentina Ricci. D.E.T. involves a sensorized exoskeleton integrated with sensors on the joints that send position and orientation data to software to extract biomechanical variables. This aims to help patients with neuro-muscular or motor deficits from trauma or aging through movement therapy. The project plans to develop, test, and commercialize the D.E.T. system along with periodic software updates and adjustment of therapies based on measured variables.
Matlab plotting
To plot graphs in MATLAB, you must:
1. Define the range of values for the x-axis variable
2. Define the function as y = f(x)
3. Use the plot command plot(x,y) to generate the graph
MATLAB allows adding titles, labels, grid lines, adjusting axis scales, and plotting multiple functions on the same graph. Subplot allows generating multiple plots in the same figure.

Migrant workers in New York face several challenges. They rely heavily on their community networks and solidarity for legal help, jobs, and health services due to limited financial resources. Women migrants often face additional difficulties compared to men, such as finding sponsorship after arriving as dependents. Community health centers and private doctors are the most common sources of healthcare, while very few seek hospital care. Remittances sent home by migrants like Filipinos are used exclusively for family expenses and caring for elderly parents.
Cultural awareness nbe3 cj
This document provides an overview of First Nations history and perspectives in Canada. It discusses:
- The diversity of First Nations cultures prior to European contact, with over 50 languages spoken.
- For thousands of years beforehand, Indigenous peoples lived in balance with the land and environment.
- Following contact and colonization, Europeans asserted control over land and governance, leading to cultural assimilation policies that damaged First Nations populations and communities over subsequent generations.
- Ongoing impacts include poorer health, social challenges, and higher rates of addiction, suicide, and incarceration among First Nations peoples today. Moving forward, the document calls for more inclusive and authentic teaching of Indigenous histories and experiences in education.

Citizenship stage 2( fight hunger )
Ben Simon started the Food Recovery Network at the University of Maryland in 2011. He worked with student groups to recover leftover food from dining halls that would otherwise be thrown away, and donate it to shelters in the D.C. area. In their first weeks they recovered 150-200 pounds of food per day. By the end of the first year they had donated over 300,000 meals. The network has since expanded across the U.S. to help feed the hungry and reduce food waste.

"Dèyè chak timoun gen yon fanmi e yon kilti" - Behind Every Child Is A Fami...Université de Montréal
Working with children and their families across cultures, especially during periods of cultural transition, is a complex and challenging task requiring knowledge of children’s normal growth and change under stable circumstances in their culture of origin and their host culture. While child specialists often express interest in families, differential rates of adaptation among the members of a family confound the perception and origins of children’s problems.
Furthermore, the difficulties of adaptation during times of cultural transition are inadequately conceptualized, poorly documented, and often trivialized as transitional problems of adaptation or ignored altogether under the rubric of youthful resilience. In the vocabulary of psychology, psychiatry and other professional discourses, these problems can be summed up through three complex lenses: children (development), family (attachment, relationships, transmission) and culture (the context for the first enculturation and subsequent acculturations of children).
The author examines several vignettes of children from Haitian families in Montreal experiencing serious mental health problems. The challenges of identifying patterns of cultural adaptation with these children are identified as are the requirements for an approach that is sensitive to all three crucial aspects of their predicaments—healthy growth, family relationships and cultural adaptation.
The features of Cultural Family Therapy (CFT) are outlined to demonstrate its responsiveness to the complex task of working with children across cultures. The clinical tools of CFT are summarized to guide practitioners. Vignettes highlight children coping with psychosis and trauma. The presentation concludes with a summary of gaps in current thinking and practice in working with children across cultures and a call for more studies of children in cultural transition.
Learning Objectives
1. To identify the challenges and rewards of working with Haitian children and families in cultural transition.
2. To present a model for conducting Cultural Family Therapy with families in cultural transition, adapting to living in Montreal.
3. To sensitize clinicians of the need for cultural understanding and review the clinical tools available to guide practitioners in their work across cultures.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
