Austin American-Statesman Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison March 22, 2002 IT'S BACK-TO-SCHOOL TIME IN AFGHANISTAN On Saturday, children in Afghanistan will do something that most kids in America take for granted they are going back to school. Because the U.S. military helped defeat the oppressive Taliban regime last fall, the people of Afghanistan have been faced with the daunting task of rebuilding their country. One of its top priorities has been to reopen the doors of the nation's schools. Before the Taliban took control, schools in Afghanistan were open to both boys and girls. Women were given opportunities to pursue higher education and professional careers. More than 70 percent of Afghan teachers, 40 percent of physicians and 50 percent of the civil service corps were female. But under Taliban rule, women were prohibited from receiving any education. Women were forced to quit their jobs, leave school and stay in their homes. They could not even be seen in public without a male escort, and they were barred from receiving health care. They were denied basic human rights. The effect on the nation's children was devastating. Schools were shut down, and many children were forced to spend their time on the streets.

Last year, an estimated 29,600 uninsured Idaho children under 19 years were eligible but still had not applied for CHIP (Urban Institute, 2002). Many of these eligible children and their families are located in rural areas of Idaho and are unaware of CHIP and the state’s 2003 income eligibility guidelines. For instance, a family of four may earn up to $27,600 annually and qualify their children (up to 19 years old) for CHIP. The comprehensive coverage offered through CHIP helps keep Idaho’s kids healthy. The CKFI Coalition encourages parents to find out if their kids are eligible by calling 211 or 1-877-KIDS-NOW for more information or to be sent the three-page CHIP application form. Article by Mary Lou Kinney, the state CKFI Project Director. She works closely with the statewide CKFI Coalition and three local CKFI Projects and their local CKFI Coalitions to promote access for eligible Idaho children to the state child health insurance program (CHIP).

KidsHealth Kids Growing Up School Stuff Oh no - it's school time again! Lots of kids feel nervous or even scared on the first day of school because of all the new things: new teachers, new friends, and maybe even a new school. Luckily, these "new" worries only stick around for a little while. You can beat the back-to-school blues by knowing what to expect. The First Day Most teachers kick off the school year by introducing themselves and talking about all the cool stuff you'll be doing that year. Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class. And of course, lots of teachers go over classroom rules so you'll know what's allowed and what's not. Pay close attention to this part to find out whether you'll have to raise your hand to ask a question or if it's not OK to chew gum in class! Kids in older grades probably will know more people in their classes on the first day. But even if you've already met the kids sitting next to you, remember that it's a new year and that first impressions can last. Try to say hello to both kids you know and kids who are new in your class, and be friendly. Everyone's a little nervous or excited, so make the first move - you'll be glad you did, and so will your new friend! Fifth or sixth grade can signal a move to middle school or junior high, where you'll find lockers, homeroom (this is just what it sounds like - a classroom you'll go to each morning, kind of like your "home" in the school), and moving from classroom to classroom for each subject. Your teachers know that this is a big change from elementary school and will help you adjust.

Revised June 2003. Download this factsheet Back pain is an extremely common complaint –an estimated 60 to 80% of people in the UK are affected at some time in their lives. It’s also one of the main reasons for sickness absence. Each year, close to 120 million working days are lost due to back pain. Acute and chronic back pain Back pain can strike anyone at any age, although studies show people are most vulnerable between the ages of 45 and 59. If the pain lasts for less than three months, it is called acute back pain, where acute refers to the duration rather than the severity of the symptoms. If the problem goes on for longer, this is known as chronic back pain. How the back works The spine is made up of many small bones called vertebrae. These are separated by discs, which allow the spine to bend (see illustration below). This structure of vertebrae and discs is supported along its length by muscles and ligaments. The spinal cord threads through the centre of each vertebra, carrying nerves from the brain to the rest of the body.
