APC Blog on yoga in the classroom, Iran
New York public schools discover the benefits of yoga classes for special ed students: The advantages of yoga for healthy people are
well-documented: increased strength, flexibility and relaxation. But
for the child with developmental disabilities, the benefits are perhaps
greater. Heightened sensory awareness, vocalization skills and
breathing capacity are just a few.
For Peace blogs about Iranian vets meeting people from Hiroshima: I hope all people reading this blog will contact President Obama and their Members of Congress and encourage them to move away from confrontation and threats against Iran and to a commitment to resolve all our differences through diplomacy, negotiation and real respect for one another.

Baby blog
The alternate realities of childbearing and child rearing:
As a young mother she [Bristol Palin] takes on adult responsibility. Conversely, lack of responsibility and self-regulation infantilizes adults … The produce department is stocked with misted bins laden with baby carrots, baby spinach, baby arugula, baby brussel sprouts. They should call the produce department "the nursery." — The Progressive's Kate Clinton
I was married at 15 and pregnant at 17. Unfortunately, that first baby died through lack of assistance. It was only on the third day of labour that the baby came into the world lifeless. At the end of my second pregnancy I ended up with fistula because no-one helped me during birth. — Mariama Boubacar, 25, from the west of Niger tells her story to New Internationalist.
