Many Afghans Lost to Hazards Of Childbirth
By Pamela Constable
Washington Post Foreign Service
Tuesday, June 6, 2006
SHEIKHABAD, Afghanistan — According to Afghan tradition, children are the fruit of heaven. The more each couple produces, the greater the blessing; hence the country has one of the world’s highest birthrates. If an infant dies, village tradition says, another will come along soon. If a mother dies giving birth, it is the will of God.
But according to international studies, Afghanistan is also one of the most dangerous places in the world to be born or to deliver a child. In a recent report, the U.S. charity Save the Children found that Afghanistan has the world’s second-highest rate of newborn deaths, 60 per 1,000 births, just below Liberia. It also found that one in six Afghan mothers — 20,000 a year — die during or after childbirth.
Safia, an illiterate villager of about 30, has survived several pregnancies, but just barely. Last month, she arrived at physician RoshanakWardak’s clinic in this town 50 miles west of the capital carrying a 3-week-old baby.
The child was thin and weak, because Safia could neither produce milk nor afford to buy formula.
Her previous child, a boy, had nearly died at birth. Safia was in labor for two days and nights, she said, with no way to travel from her village. By the time she finally reached a hospital two hours away, she had to have an emergency Caesarean section, and both she and the baby were hospitalized for a week.
“My husband was away working. I couldn’t reach him, and no one else would help me,” she said. “I was having terrible pains, but the baby would not come. Later the doctors told me it was because I worked so hard during my pregnancy, lifting water buckets and other heavy things. They told me not to have any more children for three years, but now I have this new one.”
Although Afghanistan has had a stable, Western-backed government since late 2001 and foreign donors have since spent tens of millions of dollars to improve health care, conditions still conspire to sabotage the chances of healthy and normal births.
“It’s really as bad as it can get and still sustain a population,” said Linda Bartlett, a physician and maternal and child health officer for UNICEF in Kabul, the capital.
Many parts of Afghanistan are harsh and remote, with bad roads, few clinics and little ability to attract skilled health workers. Village girls are often married by 15 and urged to produce a child each year. About 85 percent of Afghan infants are born at home, without even a trained midwife in attendance.
If complications arise, families may not recognize the danger signals and end up wasting precious time deciding what to do. The mother, in protracted labor or losing blood, may have to be carried or put on a donkey for several hours to reach a road leading to a hospital. By then, it may be too late to save her or the child.
“The worst problem is lack of skilled staff. In some provinces, there are no female health workers at all,” said Nadra Hayat, director of maternal and infant health at the Public Health Ministry in Kabul. Delivering babies is traditionally done in Afghanistan by women, and many families do not want male doctors to treat their wives or daughters.
Even when foreign donors offered to increase the government’s monthly salary for doctors from $40 to $1,000 for those willing to work in arid, isolated southern provinces, Hayat said, “the living conditions were so bad that no one wanted to go.”
According to Bartlett, health care has improved significantly in some provinces, with new clinics built and staffed in large towns. The problem, she said, is at two extremes: remote regions where medical help is dangerously scarce, and urban areas where hospitals can barely keep up with the population boom.
In Kabul, the main maternity hospital, Malalai, is hard-pressed to keep pace with the crush of deliveries resulting from a wave of returning refugees that has tripled the city’s population since the U.S.-led invasion in late 2001. The staff delivers 80 to 100 babies every 24 hours, and most new mothers are discharged the same day to keep enough beds open.
Doctors and nurse-midwives said that since the end of Taliban rule and the influx of foreign aid, the hospital has made major improvements. Infection rates have fallen sharply, and new diagnostic equipment has been donated. In the past 15 months, fewer than 10 patients have died.
“Some things are much better. We used to do 10 deliveries with one pair of gloves,” said Safia, a nurse-midwife who has worked there for 35 years.
Still, conditions are far from ideal. Basic supplies often run out. Patients may be asked to privately purchase such items as intravenous drips. When patients arrive with severe bleeding, doctors often take up a collection to buy plasma from other hospitals.
With doctors in short supply, Afghan and foreign aid agencies have focused on increasing the quantity and quality of midwives. Until recently, many were unskilled women who did little more than cut the umbilical cord. If the mother started hemorrhaging or the birth was obstructed — the two leading causes of maternal mortality here — there was little they could do.
In the past three years, a U.S.-funded program has trained hundreds of community midwives, and a national midwives association has been formed. The number of trained midwives has increased from about 500 to 1,500, and many are working in remote regions with high rates of infant and maternal deaths.
“It is a real revolution,” said Pashtun Afzer, the association’s president. “These women are so committed. They want to be competent. They know the danger signs and the causes of bleeding. Some rural people were afraid to go to strange clinics, but these are women from their own areas, so the people trust them.”
BibiAshrafi, a midwife in her fifties, has delivered more than 1,000 babies in Wardak province. She said most village families still prefer home births because they don’t want to expose their wives or daughters to unfamiliar doctors.
“I only carry a bag with a scalpel, soap, gloves and clean cloths,” she said. “I am very careful. I wash my hands eight times before and after the birth, I sterilize my scissors, and I make sure the placenta is not left inside. If the mother is doing well, I feed her a soup of sugar and oil and flour, and then I leave.”
In the past, Ashrafi said, many women died giving birth, and their families would say it was “God’s decision that her time had come.” But three years ago a clinic opened in the area and she received some training. Now, when a mother is bleeding heavily after the birth, she has a place to send them.
“It’s great we have a clinic now, but the problem is with the people,” she said. “They are so concerned about privacy that they don’t call me until a woman has been bleeding for three days. I tell them to space out the births, but they want to have as many children as possible. I tell them that is bad for the mother’s health, but they don’t want to change.”
A few miles away, outside Wardak’s clinic in Sheikhabad, several dozen women huddled on the ground, their swollen bellies hidden under billowing
burqas
. All were illiterate. Many had histories of multiple miscarriages, problem deliveries or babies born early and weak.
Wardak said she opened her clinic after the winter of 1996, when 40 women died giving birth in the district. Even now, she said, many pregnant women live so far up in the barren brown hills that they can barely get to her door, let alone endure another two-hour ride to the hospital in Kabul if they have labor complications.
“Some villages are eight or nine hours away, and the cars charge extra because the roads are so bad,” she said. “I haven’t lost a patient in nine years, but we have women traveling from one district to another with labor pains, trying to find help. Sometimes, on the way, the babies die inside them.”

Mr. R. W. Seaver
Executive Vice President Grove Press, Inc.
214 Mercer Street
New York, New York 10012
Dear Mr. Seaver:
Several people have called to our attention your advertisement for
Diary of a Harlem Schoolteacher
by Jim Haskins, which appeared in the
New York Times
March 3, 1970. The theme of the ad is “This book is like a
Line
weapon . . . it’s the real thing.”
(5)
Since our company has made use of “It’s the Real Thing” to advertise Coca-Cola long prior to the publication of the book, we are writing to ask you to stop using this theme or slogan in connection with the book.
We believe you will agree that it is undesirable for our companies to make simultaneous use of “the real thing” in connection with our respec-
(10)
tive products. There will always be likelihood of confusion as to the source or sponsorship of the goods, and the use by such prominent com- panies would dilute the distinctiveness of the trade slogan and diminish its effectiveness and value as an advertising and merchandising tool.
“It’s the Real Thing” was first used in advertising for Coca-Cola over
(15)
twenty-seven years ago to refer to our product. We first used it in print
advertising in 1942 and extended it to outdoor advertising, including painted walls—some of which are still displayed throughout the country. The line has appeared in advertising for Coca-Cola during succeeding years. For example, in 1954 we used “There’s this about Coke—You
(20)
Can’t Beat the Real Thing” in national advertising. We resumed national use of “It’s the Real Thing” in the summer of 1969 and it is our main thrust for 1970.
Please excuse my writing so fully, but I wanted to explain why we feel it necessary to ask you and your associates to use another line to advertise
(25)
Mr. Haskins’ book.
We appreciate your cooperation and your assurance that you will dis-
continue the use of “It’s the real thing.”

Dear Mr. Herbert:
Thank you for your letter of March 25th, which has just reached me,
doubtless because of the mail strike.
We note with sympathy your feeling that you have a proprietary interest
in the phrase “It’s the real thing,” and I can fully understand that the public might be confused by our use of the expression, and mistake a book by a Harlem schoolteacher for a six-pack of Coca-Cola. Accordingly, we have instructed all our salesmen to notify bookstores that whenever a customer comes in and asks for a copy of
Diary of a Harlem Schoolteacher
they should request the sales personnel to make sure that what the customer wants is the book, rather than a Coke. This, we think, should protect your interest and in no way harm ours.
We would certainly not want to dilute the distinctiveness of your trade slogan nor diminish its effectiveness as an advertising and merchandising tool, but it did occur to us that since the slogan is so closely identified with your product, those who read our ad may well tend to go out and buy a Coke rather than our book. We have discussed this problem in an execu- tive committee meeting, and by a vote of seven to six decided that, even if this were the case, we would be happy to give Coke the residual benefit of our advertising.
Problems not unsimilar to the ones you raise in your letter have occurred to us in the past. You may recall that we published
Games People Play
which became one of the biggest nonfiction best-sellers of all time, and spawned conscious imitations (Games
Children Play, Games Psychiatrists Play, Games Ministers Play,
etc.). I am sure you will agree that this posed a far moredirectanddeadlythreattoboththeauthorandourselvesthanouruse of “It’s the real thing.” Further,
Games People Play
has become part of our language, and one sees it constantly in advertising, as a newspaper headline, etc. The same is true of another book which we published six or seven years ago,
One Hundred Dollar Misunderstanding.
Given our strong sentiments concerning the First Amendment, we will defend to the death your right to use “It’s the real thing” in any advertising you care to. We would hope you would do the same for us, especially when no one here or in our advertising agency, I am sorry to say, realized that you owned the phrase. We were merely quoting in our ads Peter S. Prescott’s

Do you think civilization is worth the price in blood and treasure?
According to Herzog (2011), civilization can be defined as the advancement of the human population in terms of culture, political and economic aspect, religious beliefs and science in a particular period of time. When a society is civilized there is some sense of togetherness among the people of a particular society as opposed to when a given society lives in barbarism. Different types of civilizations have existed in…

Overview: For this assignment, you will write a short paper addressing the controversial issue of obtaining a fair cross section of jurors to serve on a jury. By analyzing this specific issue, this paper will help prepare you for your Milestone Two submission in Module Five, where you will provide an in-depth analysis of the contemporary criminal justice issue that you have selected for your final project.
The continuing underrepresentation of some groups—including minorities, young adults, and the poor—remains a concern in attempting to create a fair cross section of the community represented on juries. One reason for this underrepresentation is obvious racism, bigotry, and prejudice. Another reason is that the poor often cannot afford to be on juries, because they will miss work and be compensated at a much lower wage to serve on the jury. Social class plays a strong role in conflict theory, as the theory suggests socioeconomic status directly affects the selection of jurors and the disparity in social class of those incarcerated in this country. Often, attorneys use peremptory challenges to exclude jurors, which require no show of cause or reasonable grounds to exclude. These peremptory challenges are often utilized when a juror seems apathetic or disinterested in the process. Peremptory challenges are limited in number, whereas challenges for cause (some type of conflict, bias, or affiliation with the involved parties) are unlimited.
Prompt: Address the following critical elements in your paper:
1. Issue Presented: Summarize the issue in the form of a brief one-sentence question.
2. Short Answer: Provide a short answer which summarizes the conclusion of the paper.
3. Statement of Facts: Describe how the issue may negatively affect public perception of the criminal justice system.
4. Discussion: Provide a brief discussion of the issue, including the recent history of the issue and any legal precedents related to it.
5. Conclusion: Provide a conclusion based on the details of the issue outlined in the Discussion section. 6. Recommendations: a) What recommendations should be in place to make sure that the jury pool contains a fair cross section of the community?
b) What are types of evidence-based practices can be employed to have people of lower socioeconomic status more willing to serve on a jury?
c) Based on your analysis of the issue using conflict theory, what are the best practices to ensure random selection of individuals to serve on a jury?
d) Address what the impact of this issue is on the criminal justice system. Are more organizations than only courts affected by this? Include examples of the impact on the different branches of the criminal justice system.
Reference your course readings in your submission to support your answers.

The theme or setting for each project
You are employed by Be Safe Consulting, Inc. (BSCI), as an entry level safety consultant. You report directly to Bob Sanders, the supervising Certified Safety Professional (CSP). For the last two months you have been assigned to conduct a comprehensive safety evaluation for Acme Manufacturing Co. Based on the observations, calculations, and recommendations in Unit II through Unit VIII prepare a Comprehensive Report to Bob Sanders, who will, in turn, use this information to prepare a final report to Acme Manufacturing Co. Board of Directors. While the Board of Directors may be looking for detailed business impacts, Bob Sanders is looking for a detail of potential employee hazard exposures and your recommendation rationale (calculations, observations, and/or regulation).
Ventilation Report
You are employed by
Be Safe Consulting, Inc
. (BSCI) as an entry level safety consultant. You report directly to Bob Sanders, the supervising Certified Safety Professional (CSP). BSCI has been contracted by Acme Manufacturing Co. to conduct a study to determine employee exposures to various particulates and gases. In addition, your company has been contracted to determine if the current ventilation systems that are in place are adequate to protect employees from an over exposure to these chemicals. After conducting a field assessment, prepare a written report that Bob Sanders can utilize to prepare a final comprehensive report for the Board of Directors. During your field investigation, you find the following field observations:
Welding Room
The company has six welding
booths
, or areas that are partitioned only for the use of welding curtains. The booth is open to

in the front and top. The company is worried about the welder’s exposure to iron oxide (PEL 10 mg/m³). For a valid sample, you must have a minimum of six hours of sampling (The remaining two hours of the work day is considered to be equal to or less than the sampled exposure. As a result of your air sampling over an eight-hour time period (i.e., the work schedule), you receive the following analytical report:

After taking the air samples for employee exposures to iron oxide, then measuring and calculating the performance of the local exhaust ventilation (paying particular attention to the specifics), what recommendations would you make to reduce the employee’s overexposure, if any, to the ventilation systems?
Hazardous Materials Storage Area
As part of your assessment, you have been asked to evaluate and determine if the hazardous materials storage area has adequate ventilation. In addition to the federal requirements, Acme’s insurance carrier requires that they have a minimum of 12 air changes per hour. In your evaluation, you collect the following information:
Area Width (ft.)
Area Length (ft.)
Area Height (ft.)
Ventilation Supply #1 (volume-cfm)
Ventilation Supply #2 (volume-cfm)

Determine if the current hazardous materials storage area is adequate and meets the requirements of Acme’s insurance carrier. What recommendations would you make to correct the discrepancies, if any?
Foundry Room
Acme has a foundry room, which is nearing the point of being outdated in terms of engineering controls. For example, one employee stands near an operation that has a canopy hood exhaust and routinely puts his face in the flow of the hood, causing him to inhale particulates and gases that are directly being drawn into the hood. Part of your evaluation is to make a recommendation for a new type of exhaust system. Which one would you recommend, and why?
