Women all around the world are allowed to vote
Suffrage is one of the oldest issues that women’s rights
activist have been fighting for. The struggle to gain suffrage
is often referred to as the first wave of feminism. In 1906
Finland became the first country in the world to grant
women the right to vote and stand in elections. Now, 105
years later, Saudi women have also taken a step towards
equality with the decision of King Abdullah to grant the
women of Saudi Arabia the right to vote and stand for
election. The right for women to vote and stand in elections
hasn’t always been the case in the West, for example in
Switzerland women got suffrage as late as 1971.
According to the decision made by King Abdullah, Saudi
women can take part in municipal elections – the only public
elections in Saudi Arabia. Women will also be able to be
members of the Shura Council which has the power to
propose laws to the King.
The announcement has been received with mixed emotions.
According to the international organization of Parliaments,
IPU, the Inter-Parliamentary Union, the decision means that
no country in the world now discriminates against women
when it comes to electing leaders. Others remain more
sceptical. For example professor and researcher Stéphane
Lacroix said in an interview for French newspaper Libération
that this decision does not fundamentally change Saudi
society.
Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon welcomes the recent
announcements. He believes that these represent an
important step in the realization by women in Saudi Arabia
of their fundamental civil and political rights.
It will be interesting to see how this law will be implemented
and if it succeeds in advancing women’s rights in Saudi
Arabia.

Nobel Peace Prize Awarded to Three Activist Women
More than 250 people were nominated for the prize this
year, and there had been speculation that the committee
would reward activists from the Middle East who used social
networking sites and other Internet platforms as they
challenged entrenched dictatorships.
But if the committee had singled out the Arab Spring, it
could have courted criticism that, far from rewarding efforts
toward peace, it had chosen a phenomenon whose final
outcome in Egypt and Tunisia is far from clear, and which
has provoked bloodletting and strife in Libya, Syria, Yemen
and Bahrain.
Mr. Jagland said the 2011 prize recognized those “who were
there long before the world’s media was there reporting.”
The announcement in the Norwegian capital followed
intense speculation that the prize would be awarded
variously to a figure from the Arab Spring, the European
Union or exclusively to Mrs. Johnson Sirleaf, 72, a Harvardeducated economist, who has often been cast as a pioneer
in African politics.
She was broadly perceived as a reformer and peacemaker
when she took office after several years in exile.
In Yemen, Ms. Karman has been widely known as a vocal
opponent of the pro-American regime of Mr. Saleh since
2007, leading a human rights advocacy group called
Women Journalists Without Chains. But it was only earlier
this year that her readiness to take to the streets inspired
thousands more in Yemen to do the same.
In Liberia, Ms. Gbowee, 39, was cited by the Nobel
committee for uniting Christian and Muslim women against
her country’s warlords. As head of the Women for Peace
movement, she was praised for mobilizing women “across
ethic and religious dividing lines to bring an end to the long
war” that had raged for years in Liberia until its end in 2003
and for ensuring “women’s participation in elections.”

NFL Supports Fight Against Breast Cancer
The National Football League (NFL) is joining the American
Cancer Society (ACS) to raise awareness about the
importance of breast screenings and to raise money to help
fight breast cancer.
NFL players, coaches and referees will wear pink during the
month of October to remind women about the importance of
getting mammograms and clinical breast exams to find
breast cancer early, when it’s easier to treat. The program,
A Crucial Catch: Annual Screening Saves Lives, is timed to
coincide with National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
The American Cancer Society recommends women 40 and
older have a mammogram and clinical breast exam every
year, and younger women have clinical breast exams
periodically as well.
Hats, wristbands and other apparel worn at NFL games, and
special footballs and pink coins will be auctioned off and
proceeds will benefit the American Cancer Society. Fans
attending games are encouraged to wear pink.
The NFL also has a Web page where clubs and fans can
register teams to participate in the American Cancer Society
Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk. This
noncompetitive, inspirational event raises awareness and
funds to help end breast cancer by finding cures and
supporting programs and services for all people facing the
disease.
Additionally, the Society’s advocacy affiliate, the American
Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN), is
participating in Crucial Catch by encouraging Congress to
allocate more funding for cancer research.

There is a crippling disease that no amount of medical research can cure, no amount of fundraising
can prevent – a disease most often transmitted from parent to child.
If this disease isn‟t checked in its early stages, it can be fatal. The disease is called racism. Its early
symptom is the belief that one‟s racial group is somehow superior to others. This can lead to a mentality of
“we” versus “them”. In advanced stages, the symptoms of racism are violence, death and destruction. The
causes are fear of the foreign (xenophobia), intolerance of diversity and negative attitudes toward Jews and
other minorities.
A cure, however, exists. It‟s a non-surgical change of heart. It takes time, effort and understanding,
compassion and respect.

Flourishing is the word that best describes the independent music industry at this moment in time.
The fact that new projects require smaller budgets than before has led to the creation of countless labels and
independent companies. (…)
The entire nation has managed to grasp the most positive aspects of the drive towards globalization.
Our country is diverse, creative, proactive and, above all, very young. In the past few years, the new
generation has become increasingly involved in music production, which means that there is a growing
dynamism and energy in the current music scene. (…)
There are a number of obstacles, the main one being the high level of consumption of pirated goods,
which accounts for more than 70% of the market. (…).
Another difficulty is the limited purchasing power of a large part of the population who access
content through piracy because the prices are better suited to their means. For this reason, they are not
bothered about the poor quality or the illegality of the product they buy.

THE IMPORTANCE OF ENGLISH
English is not the most widely spoken language in the world in terms of the number of native
speakers – there are many more Chinese speakers than native English speakers – but Chinese is spoken little
outside Chinese communities, so English is the most widespread language in the world. It is difficult to
estimate exactly how many English speakers there are, but according to one estimate there are more than
350,000,000 native speakers and more than 400,000,000 speakers as a second language (a language used in
everyday life, even though it is not the native language) or foreign language (a language studied but not used
much in everyday life).
However, even these numbers do not really indicate how important English is as a world language,

THE IMPORTANCE OF ENGLISH
English is not the most widely spoken language in the world in terms of the number of native
speakers – there are many more Chinese speakers than native English speakers – but Chinese is spoken little
outside Chinese communities, so English is the most widespread language in the world. It is difficult to
estimate exactly how many English speakers there are, but according to one estimate there are more than
350,000,000 native speakers and more than 400,000,000 speakers as a second language (a language used in
everyday life, even though it is not the native language) or foreign language (a language studied but not used
much in everyday life).
However, even these numbers do not really indicate how important English is as a world language,
because less than fifteen per cent of the world population uses English. The importance of English is not just
in how many people speak I but in what it is used for. English is the major language of news and information
in the world. It is the language of business and government even in some countries where it is a minority
language. It is the language of maritime communication and international air traffic control. American
popular culture – primarily movies and music – carries the English throughout the world. (…) (p. 6).
