Gisela at School’s Democracy Forum // December 3rd, 2009 // Constituency News
Gisela Stuart was a guest speaker on the panel of the Birmingham School’s Democracy Forum. The event was hosted by the Rotary Club of Birmingham and held at Birmingham Council House on Fridays 27th November.
The forum was held in two parts. The first was a quiz on political news, facts and events. This helped to reveal the extent of knowledge on key issues. The second part was called ‘Question Time’. Gisela and the rest of the panel faced two hours of tough questions from Sixth Form students across the city. The most popular issues for discussion included troop numbers in Afghanistan and all women short lists. The event encouraged discussion and debate. It also encouraged politicians to engage with what young people and potential first time voters are really thinking.
Gisela said:
”The School’s Democracy Forum provides a platform for young people to participate in political debates. I fully support the Forum for its power to encourage young people to develop an interest in politics and appreciate the power of their vote.”
The day was highly successful. A lot of praise and thanks must go to BCC and the Rotarians for the fantastic organisation and running of the event.

Мост через Волгу в Волгограде, закрытый 20 мая из-за сильных колебаний, будет вновь открыт во вторник, 25 мая. Об этом сообщает “Интерфакс” со ссылкой на заявление губернатора Волгоградской области Анатолия Бровко.
Со вторника мост станет доступным для движения легкового транспорта. Водителям грузовых автомобилей придется подождать еще некоторое время, пока безопасность движения не будет окончательно подтверждена.
Губернатор рассказал, что для проверки конструкции на прочность сварочные швы моста были обследованы ультразвуком, а затем по нему прогнали колонну грузовиков “КамАЗ”, нагруженных щебнем.
Городские власти планируют в ближайшее время установить на мосту отсекатели ветра, чтобы улучшить аэродинамику сооружения. С момента открытия моста будет вестись круглосуточный мониторинг его конструкций. В случае повторного возникновения колебаний, движение по мосту будет перекрываться.
“Танцующий” мост в Волгограде был сдан в эксплуатацию около полугода назад. Он был закрыт для движения 20 мая 2010 года из-за сильных колебаний конструкции. По основной версии, аномалия была связана с сильным ветром, порывы которого попали в резонанс с внутренними колебаниями моста.
Специальное поручение выяснить причины колебаний “танцующего” моста дал президент России Дмитрий Медведев. Ответственными за это назначены сотрудники контрольного управления при президенте РФ и Генпрокуратуры.

Президент России Дмитрий Медведев поручил правительству подготовить предложения по сокращению численности российских чиновников на 20 процентов. Об этом сообщает ИТАР-ТАСС со ссылкой на заявление главы государства, сделанное во время совещания по вопросу формирования перечня Федеральных целевых программ.
Медведев отметил, что этот вопрос уже обсуждался в правительстве страны. Однако, по мнению главы государства, “нужно видеть финальный результат и только после этого принимать решение”. Ранее с предложением уволить каждого пятого федерального чиновника выступило Министерство финансов России. Об этом писала газета “Ведомости”.
Согласно расчетам Минфина, сокращение более 120 тысяч человек в течение ближайших трех лет позволит ежегодно экономить для бюджета 43,4 миллиарда рублей. При этом министерство предлагает повысить зарплату чиновников, чтобы стимулировать министерства и ведомства сокращать штат. На эти цели планируется выделить половину сэкономленных денег.
Премьер-министр РФ Владимир Путин заявил, что решение по вопросу сокращения чиновничьего аппарата будет принято позже. В то же время сообщается, что Следственный комитет при прокуратуре, Федеральная служба судебных приставов, Федеральная миграционная служба, Министерство по чрезвычайным ситуациям и Генпрокуратура уже обратились в правительство с просьбой увеличить им штаты в общей сложности почти на 24 тысячи сотрудников.

Two-thirds of Americans struggle to reach their weight loss goal, seriously jeopardizing long term health and taking precious years off their lifespan. If current trends continue, over the next two decades, experts believe the number of overweight and obese will swell to over 80% of all adults.
Many people have the desire to lose weight and have put forth the effort countless times. The end result is typically a failure, as permanent weight loss requires a major shift in lifestyle which is difficult for most. Some people fall for fad diet pills which promise massive weight loss in a short period of time without the need for calorie restriction or exercise. This is not the way to lose weight and can even endanger your health.
The only proven method to achieve permanent weight loss is eating a reduced calorie diet highlighted by plenty of vegetables and a regular exercise routine. Sometimes our metabolism stalls and we hit a diet plateau. Reducing calories or increasing exercise doesn’t make the scale move. This is a survival mechanism which has evolved over the millennia and which likely served our ancestors well, but today simply compounds the problem. There are some ‘tricks’ savvy dieters use to help overcome the inevitable weight plateau and achieve their target goal.
