THE POEM '' HOME THEY BROUGHT HER WARRIOR DEAD''

The poet of this poem"Home They Brought Her Warrior Dead"is MR.Alfred Lord Tennyson. This poem states thatafter a war the soldiers had brought a dead body of a soldier with them who had perished in the war.the body of a dead warrior is brought home to his wife and she has no reaction to this and is in too much of shock to show any emotion.
the maidens conclude that if she does not cry, all the bottled up grief will kill her.
the first try to make her weep by praising the warrior, calling him a true friend and i noble foe, but this doesn't change her state of shock
then a maiden goes over to the dead body and removes the cloth that covers his face, hoping for grief to flow out of the wife, but it doesn't.
finally a ninety year old nurse places their child upon her knee, and her tears roll down like a summer tempest (sudden and furiously) and she(warriors wife) says "sweet my child,i live for thee".

The United Nations (World Health Organization)

The United Nations Organization (UNO) or simply United Nations (UN) is an international organization whose stated aims are facilitating cooperation in international law, international security, economic development, social progress human rights, and the achieving of world peace. The UN was founded in 1945 after World War II to replace the League of Nations, to stop wars between countries, and to provide a platform for dialogue. It contains multiple subsidiary organizations to carry out its missions.
There are currently 192 member states , including nearly every sovereign state in the world. From its offices around the world, the UN and its specialized agencies decide on substantive and administrative issues in regular meetings held throughout the year. The organization has six principal organs: the General Assembly (the main deliberative assembly); the Security Council (for deciding certain resolutions for peace and security); the Economic and Social Council (for assisting in promoting international economic and social cooperation and development); the Secretariat (for providing studies, information, and facilities needed by the UN); the International Court of Justice (the primary judicial organ); and the United Nations Trusteeship Council (which is currently inactive). Other prominent UN System agencies include the World Health Organization (WHO), the World Food Programme (WFP) and United nations Children's Fund (UNICEF). The UN's most visible public figure is the Secretary-General, currently BanKi-moon of South Korea, who attained the post in 2007. The organization is financed from assessed and voluntary contributions from its member states, and has six official languages: Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian and Spanish.
WHO is the directing and coordinating authority for health within the United Nations system. It is responsible for providing leadership on global health matters, shaping the health research agenda, setting norms and standards, articulating evidence-based policy options, providing technical support to countries and monitoring and assessing health trends.
In the 21st century, health is a shared responsibility, involving equitable access to essential care and collective defense against transnational threats.
All countries which are Members of the United Nations may become members of WHO by accepting its Constitution. Other countries may be admitted as members when their application has been approved by a simple majority vote of the World Health Assembly. Territories which are not responsible for the conduct of their international relations may be admitted as Associate Members upon application made on their behalf by the Member or other authority responsible for their international relations. Members of WHO are grouped according to regional distribution (193 Member States).
The headquarters of the world health organization are in Geneva, Switzerland.
The World Health Organization (WHO) is one of the original agencies of the United Nations, its constitution formally coming into force on the first World Health Day (April 7, 1950), when it was ratified by the 26th member state.Jawarharlal Nehru of India had given an opinion to start Who. Prior to this its operations, as well as the remaining activities of the League of Nations Health Organization, were under the control of an Interim Commission following an International Health Conference in the summer of 1946.The transfer was authorized by a Resolution of the General Assembly.The epidemiologicalservice of the French Office International d'Hygiène Publique was incorporated into the Interim Commission of the World Health Organization on January 1st, 19
The WHO's constitution states that its objective "is the attainment by all people of the highest possible level of health .” Its major task is to combat disease, especially key infectious diseases, and to promote the general health of the people of the world.
Apart from coordinating international efforts to control outbreaks of infectious diseases, such as SARS, malaria, Tuberculosis, swine flu, and AIDS the WHO also sponsors programs to prevent and treat such diseases. The WHO supports the development and distribution of safe and effective vaccines, pharmaceutical diagnostics, and drugs. After over two decades of fighting smallpox, the WHO declared in 1980 that the disease had been eradicated – the first disease in history to be eliminated by human effort.
The WHO aims to eradicate polio within the next few years. The organization has already endorsed the world's first official HIV/AIDS Toolkit for Zimbabwe (from 3 October 2006), making it an international standard.
In addition to its work in eradicating disease, the WHO also carries out various health-related campaigns — for example, to boost the consumption of fruits and vegetables worldwide and to discourage tobacco use. Experts met at the WHO headquarters in Geneva in February, 2007, and reported that their work on pandemic influenza vaccine development had achieved encouraging progress. More than 40 clinical trials have been completed or are ongoing. Most have focused on healthy adults. Some companies, after completing safety analysis in adults, have initiated clinical trials in the elderly and in children. All vaccines so far appear to be safe and well-tolerated in all age groups tested.
The WHO also promotes the development of capacities in Member States to use and produce research that addresses national needs, by bolstering national health research systems and promoting knowledge translation platforms such as the Evidence Informed Policy Network –EVIPNet.WHO and its regional offices are working to develop regional policies on research for health -the first one being the Regional Office for the Americas PAHO/AMRO that had its Policy on Research for Health approved in September 2009 by its 49th Directing Council.

Indonesia Shrugs Off Earthquake, But Not Bubble Fears

In the pre-dawn hours on Wednesday, Indonesia became the latest country to be rocked by a natural disaster, as a 7.7 magnitude earthquake occurred at sea about 200 kilometers northwest of the Indonesian island of Sumatra. The quake was felt throughout Sumatra and Malaysia, and there were news reports of electrical outages throughout the country. The earthquake also sparked a tsunami alert in Thailand, as authorities began issuing warnings for coastal areas popular with tourists. Thailand’s National Disaster Warning Centre warned there was a high risk of a tsunami along the Andaman Coast, the same area where more than 5,000 people dies following a 2004 tsunami. But the quake only caused small waves to wash up on Thai shores, and the warning has since been lifted.

Reports of damage from the quake were scarce, and casualties were expected to be minimal. The Jakarta Stock Exchange was operating normally on Wednesday, as major metropolitan areas shrugged off news of the overnight earthquake and went about business as usual. The earthquake seemingly had little impact equity markets, but other factors weighed on an Indonesian stock market that had been soaring higher in recent sessions. Trading in the Market Vectors Indonesia ETF (IDX) was heavy on Wednesday, with share volume exceeding twice the average daily level after less than three hours of trading. IDX was recently trading down about 0.5% on the day, potentially putting an end to an impressive rally in Indonesian markets.

The country’s benchmark Jakarta Composite Index recently hit a new all-time high after the central bank elected to leave interest rates unchanged IDX, which tracks the Market Vectors Indonesia Index, is up about 19% on the year, and has gained more than 175% over the previous 52 weeks.
