Dhegeyso Warbixintii VOA ee Sunta Soomaaliya Warbixin ay toddobaadkan soo saartay Qaramada Midoobey ayaa shaaca ka qaaday halistaas ay sunta lagu aasay xeebaha iyo badda Soomaaliya. Halistaas aadka oo Soomaalida dugsaneysey ilaa markii uu dagaalka ahliga ahi ka bilowday dalka. Klaus Toepfer (bidix) oo ah agaasime sare oo ka tirsan UNEP iyo Rachmad Witoelar (midig) oo ah wasiirka Indonesia u qaabilsan deegaanka oo ka hadlayey xarunta UNEP ee Nairobi, February 22, 2005. Warbixinta Qaramada midoobey waxa ay sheegtay in badgariirkii uu sababay suntii ku duugnay badaha Soomaaliya oo dabooladii ka qaadameen ama haamihii ay ku jireen baddu soo tuurtay kuwaas oo halis gelisay caafimaadka Soomaalida Sawirka: REUTERS Warbixinta Qaramada midoobey waxa ay sheegtay in aafadii badgariirka ee soo gaartey xeebaha Soomaaliya in ay firdhisay sunta Nukliyeerka iyo waxyaahaba halista ah ee ku duugnaa xeebaha Soomaaliya. Arintaas oo dhalisay khatar caafimaad oo aad u baaxad weyn oo soo food saaray mujtamaca Soomaaliyeed. Nick Nuttall oo ah Afhayeen u hadlayey hay'adda Qaramada midoobey u qaabilsaan deegaanka ee loo yaqaan UNEP ayaa VOA u sheegay in 15-kii sano ee la soo dhaafay ay shirkado reer Yurub ah iyo kuwo kaleba ay Soomaaliya u isticmaali jireen goobta lagu duugo qaybo aad u kala duwan oo ah sunta nooca loo yaqaan nukliyeer "nuclear" iyo qashinka loo yaqaan "hazardous wastes". Afhayeenka UNEP waxa uu yiri "Waxaa halkaas kujira sunta shucaaca ah ee uranium, sunta maduulk aah ee leads, sunta biraha ay kamid yihiin cadmium & mercury, qashinka wershedaha, qashinka cisbitaalada, qashinka kimikada, iyo sun kasta oo la magcaabo".. Waxana uu intaas ku daray "Khabiir qamara sanaaciga yaqaan ma ahan in aad tahay si aad u fahamtid sababta ay sidaas u samaaynayaan, waa in ay tahay deganaansha la'aanta halkaas ka jirta awgeed" Afhayeenka UNEP waxa uu yiri shirkadaaha reer Yurub wax halkii Tan oo soo sun ah oo lagu duugayo Soomaaliya ku bixiyaan khaarash ah $2.50, halka ay ku bixi lahayd $250 tankiiba haddii lagu aasi lahaa Yurub. Waxana uu afhayeenka UNEP intaas ku daray in badgariirkii ka soo bilowday Aasiya uu burburiyey ama kala furfuray haamiha, fuustooyinka iyo waxyaabaha kale ee suntaasi kujirtey, kaddibna waxaa hirarkii baddu aay sunta u xambaareen ilaa 10 kiloomiter oo gudaha dalka ah (ama berriga ah). Waxana uu sheegay in aysan macquul ahayn in la ogaado inta tan ama tirada waxyaabaha ay suntaasi kujirto ee yaala xeebaha Soomaaliya, laakiin waxa uu sheegay in arintu ay 'halis weyn tahay". Raadka ay suntaasi ku yeelatay mujtamaca deggan xeebaah Soomaaliya waa arin masuubo ah ayuu yiri afhayeenka hay'adda Qaraamada midoobey u qaabilsan Degaanka. Waxana uu sheegay dhibaatooyinka ay dadkaasi la kulmeen in ay kamid yihiin "cuduro halis ah oo qalajinaya sambabaada, qufac aad u xoogan, afka oo dhiig ka soo baxayo, dhiig ku furmaaya gudaha caloosha, maqaarka oo diidaya kimiko aan la aqoon" ayuu yiri, asagoo ku daray "Waxaa jira cuduro badan oo laga soo sheegayo tuulooyin kuwaas oo ah inta aan fursada u helay in aan eego. Laakiin waa in baaritaan dheer arinta lagu sameeyo si loo ogaado baaxada dhibaatadan".

I found this interesting article and i want to share with y'all although many of u know this issue............ Unicef urges action against female cutting swissinfo February 4, 2005 3:43 PM Somali women campaigned against the widespread practice of genital cutting at a rally last year (Keystone) The United Nations children’s fund says the practice of female genital cutting – common in parts of Africa – is an issue in Switzerland, due to immigration. In a report on Friday, Unicef points out that 7,000 women and girls now living in Switzerland have undergone the procedure. Unicef urges action to combat genital mutilation Swiss act to protect women's rights The UN body is calling for action, including better training of medical professionals and social workers to deal with the issue. It says migrants should be informed about the health risks involved and the consequences of breaking the law. Dialogue with migrant families and girls threatened by the practice is an essential aspect of prevention, it adds. Unicef estimates that as many as 130 million women and children around the world have undergone some form of the traditional practice, which involves cutting away part of the female genitals. It warns that genital cutting can lead to lifelong health problems and an increased risk of dying or being permanently injured during childbirth. As a result of immigration – principally from Somalia, Ethiopia and Eritrea – around 7,000 circumcised women and girls are currently living in Switzerland, where the practice is punishable by law, according to Unicef. Female genital mutilation is a taboo. Elsbeth Müller, Unicef Switzerland. “Female genital mutilation is a taboo, not only in the countries where it is practised, but also in Europe,†said Elsbeth Müller, secretary general of Unicef Switzerland. To cast more light on the issue in Switzerland, Unicef carried out a survey last year of 1,800 medical staff and social workers. It found that 61 per cent of gynaecologists and 38 per cent of midwives had treated circumcised women. Forty per cent of those questioned had had to deal with problems resulting from female cutting. Four doctors and two midwives said they had been asked to carry out the operation. Medical workers said they believed that genital cutting was being carried out in Switzerland by foreign doctors: 203 professionals said they had heard of such cases. The survey revealed a lack of information about the problem in Switzerland. Three-quarters of those questioned said the issue should be addressed during medical training. Doctors and social workers also called for professional-conduct guidelines on dealing with the problem. Unicef says female genital cutting is punishable by law in Switzerland because it entails serious physical injury. Parents who send their daughters abroad to undergo circumcision are also guilty of breaking the law, it says. The children’s fund also points out that as a signatory state of the European Convention on Human Rights, Switzerland is legally obligated to protect girls against the practice. 1,799 medical and social workers in Switzerland took part in the Unicef survey. - 518 of them said they had treated circumcised women. 203 people said they had heard of cases of girls being circumcised in Switzerland. - Four doctors and two midwives said they had been asked to carry out the operation. breif Worldwide over 130 million women and girls have been circumcised. In Switzerland, around 7,000 women are affected. As a signatory state of the European Convention on Human Rights, Switzerland is obligated to protect women against forced circumcision.

What are you trying to say? FF dear what I'm trying to say is that its all about CULTURE though I agree with you on this, children are innocent and must not go through such a pain, but what we need to understand is that--that is thier culture and its a norm to do such thing... FF dear this is my Q for you, how do you stop/prevent such culture/norm/practice? that has been going on for a long period of time.....How do you approach this issues?............... Go figure:................

People everywhere tend to praise thier onw lifestyle as normal, humane, refined, and enlighted. Other cultures are bizzare. Or foolsih. Or evil, wild, childish, absurd, even sub-human. What we do is right, and what they do is wrong. Of course our cultural norms are equally peculiar to other. Many of the cultural peculaiarities of other people are increasingly showing up on our own doorstep--and vice versa. I think we just need to understand other cultures that is all......

Carbohydrate Type, Not Amount, Linked to Obesity Wed Feb 16, 2:46 PM ET Health - Reuters By Alison McCook NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - When it comes to carbohydrates, it's not how much you eat, but which kind, that makes a difference to your bathroom scale, new research shows. People who are overweight do not appear to eat more carbohydrates overall than people who weigh less, the researchers report in the American Journal of Epidemiology. However, they found that overweight people tend to eat more refined carbohydrates, such as white bread and pasta, which cause a rapid spike in blood sugar. "Total amount of carbohydrate is not related to body weight," Dr. Yunsheng Ma of the University of Massachusetts Medical School in Worcester told Reuters Health. "It's the type of carbohydrate that's important." These findings suggest that low-carbohydrate diets, which recommend people cut back on all carbohydrates, are missing the mark, Ma added. "Carbohydrates are not the enemy," he said in an interview. "But you have to watch the kind of enemy." Ma explained that refined carbohydrates are often found in processed foods that contain a lot of sugar. This type of carbohydrate has what's called a high glycemic index, meaning it causes a rapid increase in blood sugar. The body stores that sugar in muscle, but if it is not used, it becomes fat, he noted. In contrast, whole grains, fruits and vegetables have carbohydrates that don't have such high glycemic index, Ma said. In the report, Ma and his colleagues note that in the last 20 years, the rate of obesity has increased, despite the fact that people are eating less fat. To help investigate the role carbohydrates play in obesity, the researchers measured the height and weight of 572 healthy people, and asked them to regularly report what carbohydrates they ate. Ma's team followed study participants for one year. They found that people with a higher body mass index -- a measure of weight that factors in height -- tended to eat carbohydrates with a higher glycemic index. The amount of carbohydrates people ate had no influence on body mass index. "Refined carbohydrates are no good, but the total amount of carbohydrates is okay," Ma noted. He added that some countries now include a food's glycemic index on the labeling, which can be helpful for people trying to lose weight or deal with diabetes.
