![]() Protecting the safety and human rights of key populations expands their access to HIV services, accelerating progress in the response to HIV. HIV prevalence among female sex workers is now just under 2%. The work to educate and empower this community to have safer sex is paying off. A 2021 study found that 98% of sex workers used condoms. While giving an overview of the Supreme Court ruling, Senior Advocate, Anand Grover, noted that sex workers have taken steps which have contributed to the decline of HIV in India by negotiating condom use with their clients. Recognizing the equal worth and dignity of every person is not only ethical, but also critical for ending AIDS.” “The Supreme Court ruling was historic because with this, India joins a handful of countries like Canada and New Zealand that have explicitly instituted legal protection for sex workers. “Laws make a difference,” said David Bridger, UNAIDS Country Director to India in his keynote address. AINSW has been working on the issues of sex worker rights since 2011 across several states. To commemorate this landmark judgment, the All-India Network of Sex Workers (AINSW) conducted a three-day National Consultation titled ‘Sisterhood and Solidarity with Sex Workers: One Year Since the Historic Supreme Court Ruling of 2022’. This ruling will help ensure that the children of sex workers can access essential services, including healthcare and education. Moreover, the court also stressed the vital need to uphold the basic protection of human decency for the children of sex workers who, “bearing the brunt of social stigma… are removed to the fringes of the society, deprived of their right to live with dignity”. And the police should be sensitised to the community’s rights. ![]() Individual sex work is not.) Nor should the possession of condoms and other safer sex commodities be treated as evidence of an offence. The court instructed both central and state governments that sex workers should not be arrested, penalised, harassed or victimised during brothel raids.

![]() The powerful god thought nothing of the challenge, but with all his effort was only able to lift one of the creature’s paws into the air. Thor’s first test was to lift Skrymir’s pet cat. Loki’s eating contest was against wildfire, which can consume entire forests in minutes. When asked to race against a small boy, for example, Thor’s servant is actually racing against the speed of a thought. The enormous giant challenges Thor and his companions to numerous feats of strength, each of which hides a secret. In the first, Thor encountered a giant king named Skrymir, or Utgarda-Loki. At least two stories featured him, both of which involved Thor. Jormungand would not be totally forgotten beneath the waves, however. The great serpent encompassed the entire world of men and wound his way unseen in the depths of the sea, growing so large that he gripped his own tail to make a complete circle around the sea. The sea was so vast that there was nothing to constrain his size.Įventually, the serpent became so large that his body wrapped all the way around Midgard. Thor picked up the young serpent and tossed him into the sea that surrounded Midgard. Jormungand was given an even less dignified imprisonment. The gods tried to tame Fenrir, the giant wolf, but were eventually forced to bind him with heavy chains. The half-rotten girl Hel was banished to the Underworld, where she became its ruler. When Odin and the other gods discovered Loki’s monstrous children, they immediately recognized them as a threat. He and his siblings, Hel and Fenrir, were born without the knowledge of the gods. Jormungand: The Enemy of ThorĪccording to Norse legends, Jormungand was the middle child of Loki and the giantess Angrboda. From Egypt to Greece, evidence of the themes that influenced Jormungand show that the World Serpent may be one of the oldest figures in Norse mythology. While this story is iconic in Norse literature, scholars believe that its origins lie far from Scandinavia. When he rose out of the sea, he would bring a wave of destruction and engage in an epic battle of strength and fortitude. He would have his chance at Ragnarok, the battle that was prophesied to be the end of the world and of the gods. One of Loki’s monstrous offspring, he lived in the deepest parts of the sea and waited for his time to rise to the surface once more. This was Jörmungandr, usually Anglicized as Jormungand. ![]() This beast was so enormous that it encircled the entire world, biting its own tail to form a complete ring around the sea. They believed that far beneath the surface, a massive monster lurked. ![]() Sailors in the Viking Age had more to fear from the sea than just storms and waves. ![]() Group fitness is a fairly new concept and can be traced back to Jazzercise.

The common femoral vein is usually 2–4 cm in length, receiving three tributaries, being the great saphenous vein (superficial vein), profunda femoral vein and femoral vein (deep veins). Sonoanatomy of the lower extremity venous system. In this review, the evolution and method of lower limb venous compression ultrasound is described along with evidence for its use in emergency medicine, critical care and the current evidence for its use in pre‐operative screening in patients at high risk for DVT. This technique is usually referred to as lower limb venous two‐ or three‐point compression ultrasound, depending on the number and site of compression points, and is becoming popular in emergency, critical care and perioperative medicine. ![]() It has been realised that inability to completely compress the vein with the ultrasound probe has an equivalent accuracy (false‐positive and false‐negative predictive value) to venous duplex, and this technique can be easily taught to non‐radiologists and non‐sonographers, enabling point‐of‐care application and therefore potentially saving considerable time and cost of referring patients to the radiology department. The basic principles of ultrasound identification of DVT (known as ‘venous duplex’) are visualisation of a thrombus within vein lumen, which results in reduced or absent blood flow in the vein using colour flow and spectral Doppler. Venography is now usually reserved for when ultrasound is not adequate or available. In many regions, ultrasound has replaced venography as the first‐line investigation of choice for DVT 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 due to its comparable (but slightly lower) accuracy 9, 13 with the lack of exposure to staff and patients to radiation and lack of exposure to patients to intravenous contrast. 6 It is estimated that many more cases of DVT are not diagnosed and hence improvements in diagnosis of VTE is a priority. 2 Approximately 2 million patients are diagnosed with a deep venous thrombosis (DVT) annually in the United States, 3 resulting in estimated 600,000 hospitalisations and 200,000 deaths resulting from pulmonary embolism (PE), 4, 5 and the short‐term mortality rate from untreated pulmonary embolus probably exceeds 20%. Venous thromboembolism (VTE), which comprises deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolus (PE), is the third commonest vascular disorder in Caucasian populations, 1 and in Australia, DVT alone (without concomitant PE) affects 52 persons per 100,000 annually. ![]() I said aloud, ‘I don’t need any of this stuff, the house, the career, the money or the trappings of success. Finally, he desperately kneeled down in his million-dollar mansion on the Pacific Coast in Malibu, California.ĭan writes, “I cried out to God for relief, told Him how miserable I was, what a wretch I’d become and how deeply I longed for Him. ![]() But Dan had everything he wanted in life except happiness. After seven years as the highest-earning band for Warner Brothers, America was going to sign a huge new contract. Millions of their albums were sold, including 5 million of their Greatest Hits album, and they will have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He later warned young people about the dangers of substance abuse, discussing his own struggles with drugs and alcohol, which were necessary to survive the intense pressures to succeed.ĭan and his bandmates wrote many hits which most Americans have heard, such as their first, A Horse with No Name, which became #1. So for the next 7 years I lived a double life.”ĭan then plunged into all the vices associated with rock music stardom. I was also terrified because I was sure that to make that proclamation would spell the end of that success. Terror seized my heart when I realized the magnitude of what had happened and what I had committed to. According to Dan’s autobiography, Dan Peek: An American Band, he was saved and baptized at age 12 but lived “a lukewarm Christian existence.” Then at age 19 he prayed, “God, if you’ll make this band a success I’ll use it as a platform to tell others about you, to proclaim you to people everywhere.ĭan writes, “Within nine months…America had our first hit single and album…I knew in my heart that God had heard and honored my prayer. He and two fellow military brats formed America in Britain.ĭan had one of the most incredible Christian testimonies, and his life offers us so many lessons. Dan was the son of an Air Force officer and lived all over the world, even in Sumter, S.C. America was one of the most successful rock bands in the world in the seventies. The circumstances surrounding his departure and the relationships between the former friends remained complex, and a reunion went on to be elusive until his untimely death.Dan Peek, co-founder of the rock group America, died unexpectedly in his sleep on Sunday, July 24, 2011, at the young age of 60 in his home in Farmington, Missouri, from an infection of the membrane surrounding the heart. But I don’t have any terrible regret about it.”ĭan Peek passed away in his sleep due to uremic pericarditis in 2011, putting an end to any further theories about a potential reunion. But, of course, the finality of his death quashed any idea. We were all resigned to our respective paths after he left. Gerry and I just felt… Well, Dan never pursued it either. But between us, it would go back and forth and sputter out. It would be brought up – mostly by the fans, who were passionate about it. “The three of us were never close to having a reunion. The musician expressed himself by saying: That’s why he also mentioned that he did not regret not reuniting the original lineup after his former bandmate’s death. He stated that it was never a serious concept between the band members like it was among the fans because everyone was focused on their respective careers. Similarly, in a 2013 statement shared by Houston Press, Bunnell revealed that nobody, including Dan Peek, attempted to bring the trio back together. ![]() Didn't think about she chasing animals and Elmer doing the same(with other intentions, but in both cases is a bad thing for the animal).īack then I also thought Max was the counterpart for both Elmer and Sam, due to his reaction in "Looney Beggining"(wich oddly I saw first in a comic book in 1993 before watching the animated episode in '97 or '98). Never noticed her face similarities, I thought it was just the warner style for some humans. Here she was named "Elvira" (well, that's just a letter less to have the same starting as "Elmer"). Goopy Geer = Two-Tone Town (in that they both feature the character)īewitched Bunny = Fit to Be Stewed (both have the Hansel/Gretel motif going on)Īs a kid ,until some time after I got Internet, I always thought Elmyra was the counterpart of Granny. Sport Chumpions = ACME Acres' Summer Olympics (both have that blackout gag execution of looking at various sporting events)Ĭheese Chasers = Let's Do Lunch (both involve an animal that wants the cat to eat them, although the reasons are different) Robin Hood Daffy = Robin Hare (both parody Robin Hood, albeit in vastly different methods) Scaredy Cat, Claws For Alarm, Transylvania 6-5000 = Boo Hoo Hoo, Pluck of the Irish (both involve a character staying at a haunted house) ![]() mean adversary in golf)įrigid Hare = Fur-Gone Conclusion (both involve a rabbit protecting an animal from a hunter)īugs Bunny and the Three Bears = Bear Necessities (both are parodies of the Goldilocks story) My Bunny Lies Over the Sea = Miniature Goof (rabbit vs. Hollywood Steps Out = Hollywood Plucky (both have a large number of celebrity caricatures. Super-Rabbit = Super Babs (parodies the same thing)ĭuck Amuck = Duck Out of Luck (an off-screen presence controls what happens to Plucky, similar to Duck Amuck)ĭevil May Hare = Debutant Devil (not a direct copy, but similar in that a Taz-style character is trying to devour a rabbit in a forest-like setting)ĭaffy Flies North = Migrant Mallard (both deal with trying to migrate, although they're different in script and execution) Then the debatable ones (some of these being VERY debatable, depending on how you look at them):Įlmer's Pet Rabbit = Hare Today, Gone Tomorrow (elements are similar) The Great Piggy Bank Robbery = The Return of Pluck Twacy This thread could also be interesting in drawing comparisons between old school LT plots and their TTA "remakes" or sequels.Īny Pepe short = Aroma Amore, Love Stinksĭuck Dodgers in the 24 1/2 Century = Duck Dodgers Jr. ![]() I do not know if it was a joke or cover-up, but Mary Melody being based on So White would make sense, since they look and act similar, and "Coal Black and de Sebben Dwarfs" is a "Merrie Melodies" cartoon, hence the name Mary Melody.Īdditionally, Shirley McLoon and Byron Basset do not have counterparts, and Arnold the Pit Bull is based on Arnold Schwargenzer and is not a kid.Ĭan anyone think of any more, or did I cover it? I thought there was a connection between So White (from the "Merrie Melodies" cartoon, "Coal Black and de Sebben Dwarfs") and Mary Melody, but in the interview with the website Platypus Comix, Tom Ruegger (the producer of "Tiny Toon Adventures"), the one in which Tom explained why Mary Melody never developed as a character, Ruegger denies that Mary Melody was designed in reference to So White. Witch Hazel - Sandy Witch (though she was just used once, the connection is still there) ![]() Speedy Gonzales - Lightning Rodriquez (he was never used, but he was still created, that counts in my book) Yosemite Sam - Montana Max (though Montana also idolizes Elmer Fudd)Įlmer Fudd - Elmyra Duff (though Elmyra Duff also idolizes Granny) I can just think of these, but there might be more:īugs Bunny - Buster Bunny/Babs Bunny (though Bugs is not the counterpart of Babs) I think almost of all us know that the characters on "Tiny Toon Adventures" are supposed to be based on the characters from "Looney Tunes", but how many are there is the question. ![]() 21 states have same-day voter registration, including red states like Idaho, Wyoming, and Iowa. They should be extended to all people in America. Many of the provisions in this bill have already been adopted across country in red, blue and purple states and have the support of Republican and democratic governors and elected officials. Our recent Morning Consult poll found that 57% of voters support requiring states to establish nonpartisan redistricting commissions. A poll from the Campaign Legal Center found that 83% of likely voters support public disclosure of contributions to organizations involved in elections. ![]() According to a Pew poll from last year, 65% of respondents said the option to vote early or absentee should be available to any voter. That is why the American people overwhelmingly support the provisions of this bill. These are real threats to our democracy and the For the People Act takes them head on in a common sense way to return the power to the people. Dark money also continues to flood our elections, denying voters their ability to know who is trying to influence their vote. According to the Center for Responsive Politics, spending for the 2020 election cycle was approximately $14 billion, more than double the 2016 cycle. At the same time, the huge sums of money spent on elections are drowning out the voices of voters. Efforts have been made to suppress the vote, efforts have been made to introduce bills that would suppress the vote.Īs Senator Warnock said in his maiden speech on the Senate floor last week, to vote by mail, which is how 45% of voters cast their ballots in the last election, and 14 states have introduced legislation to make it easier to purge voters from the rolls. That was an extraordinary thing, that was progress, but what was the result? Well, just since the beginning of this year, now over 300 bills have been introduced in state legislatures across the country in nearly every state, including my own home state of Minnesota. Last November in the middle of a pandemic, in the middle of a public health crisis, nearly 160 million Americans voted, more people than ever before, in part because the methods of voting, specifically ways that we made it easier to vote, were extended in states across the country. At a time when the right to vote is under attack and special interests and dark money are drowning out the voices of the American people, we need to take action. ![]() As I said from the stage on the inauguration day, on that beautiful day, which Senator Blunt so much to make a success, under that bright blue sky at the very place where you could still see the spray paint on the bottom of the columns and the makeshift windows that were put in place, I said, “This is the day our democracy picks itself up, brushes off the dust and does what America always does, goes forward as one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.” Well, we can’t do that if anyone’s vote is suppressed. It is about strengthening our democracy by returning it to the hands of its rightful owners, the American people. This bill is essential to protecting every American’s right to vote, getting dark money out of our elections, as well as some very important anti-corruption reforms. That democracy is due for some rejuvenation. In the end, that insurrection was about an angry mob working to undermine our democracy and it reminds all of us how very fragile our democracy truly is and how it is on all of us to not just protect that democracy, but to ensure that it thrives. I’m also pleased that we took part in very constructive hearings, along with the Homeland Security Committee on the January 6th attack on the Capitol, and our productive work Senator Blunt and I are doing together on oversight and investigations of that day is continuing. Last month, when we held this committee’s organizing meeting, I announced that the For the People Act would be the subject of our first legislative hearing. I would also like to acknowledge, in addition to Senator Merkley, two of our other members who are new to this committee and are new to the Senate, Senator Ossoff, who along with Senator Warnock was elected in Georgia, where we all know election issues were front and center, as well as Senator Padilla, who has his own extensive experience with these issues from his time as California’s secretary of state. I would like to thank Senator Blunt, our colleagues, and our witnesses for being here today. Today, we are here to consider For the People Act, a legislation that I’m honored to lead with Senator Merkley and Majority Leader Schumer, which has been co-sponsored by every Democratic member of this committee. I called to order this hearing of the Rules and Administration Committee on S.
