Alzheimer's Association
To assist the growing number of Americans whose lives are being impacted by Alzheimer's disease, NEFE and the Alzheimer's Association partnered to create two educational pamphlets that discuss the financial implications of this debilitating disease. For those people experiencing the early symptoms of Alzheimer's disease, Steps To Understanding Financial Issues: Resources for Individuals with Alzheimer's Disease Steps to Understanding Financial Issues: Resources for Caregivers (24 pages), addresses the same topics as the first booklet, but from the perspective of the caregiver, who is often responsible for managing the legal and financial affairs for a loved one with Alzheimer's. Both pamphlets emphasize that it is very important for those with Alzheimer's and their caregivers to take steps to anticipate, plan, and manage the costs of what can be a years-long disease.

Print Preview of Section Indigenous peoples in Middle and South America today make up a large majority of all Native Americans throughout the world. At least 400 different groups count themselves as culturally distinct peoples. Some strive to reinforce cultural traditions, while others have shifted toward urban and international ways of life. Some live on land that the government set aside for them, but many more live as peasants in the countryside, or migrate to cities. Diverse as they are, these peoples share a common experience: All of them live in countries that until very recently excluded them from power. Indeed the word

Achievements FY2000 Operating Budget Requests Connections and Partnerships FY2000 Capital Budget Requests ... Graphs I am delighted to be here to talk about UMBC and to respond to questions you may have on our FY 2000 budget request. UMBC is greater Baltimore's public research university, emphasizing graduate programs in the sciences, engineering, and public policy, and built on a strong undergraduate liberal-arts-and-sciences core. Among the nation's research universities, we are distinctive because of our emphasis on undergraduate education, reflecting our tradition of linking research and teaching. We offer degrees in 28 undergraduate, 27 master's, and 19 Ph.D. programs; enroll 10,100 students (including 8,600 undergraduates); employ 1,800 full- and part-time faculty and staff; have nearly 32,000 alumni (85% living in Maryland); have an operating budget of almost $180 million, including $48 million per year in contracts and grants; and have a physical plant valued at over $300 million, consisting of 500 acres, 40 buildings, and almost 2.5 million square feet of space. Founded in 1966, UMBC has built in just over three decades a strong foundation reflecting the efforts of many people, including State leaders and our faculty, staff, and students. It also reflects three decades of careful thinking, ambitious planning, and hard decisions. In building the faculty, staff, and a strong student body, we have learned that talented people attract other talented people. One impressive measure of our success is the vote this past year by Phi Beta Kappa, the nation's most prestigious scholarly honor society, establishing a chapter at UMBC. Of Phi Beta Kappa's 255 member institutions, UMBC is one of the youngest public campuses ever to gain admission, rivaling some of the University of California's most prestigious campuses in this regard.

CALIFORNIA'S URBAN PROTECTED AREAS Progress despite daunting pressures By Ted Trzyna CIPA Publication No.. 107 © 2001-2002 IUCN - The World Conservation Union Links to related material] Note: This invited article was published in Vol. 11, No. 3 (2001) of Parks: The International Journal for Protected Area Managers, published three times a year by the World Commission on Protected Areas of IUCN - The World Conservation Union . The printed version of the article differs slightly from this one, mainly in using British rather than American style. The full text of the Parks issue is posted on the IUCN Web site, www.iucn.org (go to Our Work, then Themes, then Protected Areas, then Publications). Contact information for the organizations mentioned is provided at the end of the article (this list is not included in the printed version). IUCN defines a protected area as "an area of land and/or sea especially dedicated to the protection and maintenance of biological diversity, and of natural and associated cultural resources, and managed through legal or other effective means." Abstract In the U.S. state of California, progress is being made in protecting natural areas in and around cities in spite of relentless urban sprawl. Although a confusing number of agencies are involved, partnerships are common. Nongovernmental organizations have a pivotal role. Examples are provided from the two major cities of the state, Los Angeles and San Francisco. Almost all protected areas are managed for a range of benefits. Biodiversity is a primary goal, along with recreation, education, and in many places watershed protection. Economic benefits are varied and substantial. Management issues include administrative and physical fragmentation, invasive species, fire, and pollution. Agencies recognize a need to reach out to urban residents, but performance is mixed. A new "natural park" in a poor Los Angeles neighborhood is a striking innovation. California has much to learn from other countries, and much to share.
