PARADISE ISLAND, Bahamas — Stacy Lewis brings more value to the LPGA Tour that just her golf. Along with becoming the first American in 18 years to win LPGA player of the year, and then rising to No. 1 in the world for four weeks, Lewis had a direct hand in bringing two tournaments to the LPGA Tour. One of them is this week, the Bahamas LPGA Classic, which grew out of her partnership with Ohio-based title sponsor Pure Silk. She also aced what amounted to a pop quiz by the chief executive of Marathon Oil, which now sponsors a tournament in July. ...

Inaugural Day to End Fistula Highlights Progress, Challenges

Countries around the world are marking the first-ever International Day to End Obstetric Fistula with a variety of events to raise awareness of this neglected health and human rights challenge. One of the most serious injuries of childbirth, obstetric fistula is a hole in the birth canal caused by prolonged, obstructed labour due to the lack of timely and adequate medical care. In most cases, the baby is either stillborn or dies within the first week of life, and the woman suffers a devastating injury—a fistula—that renders her incontinent. Many women and girls with fistula are shunned by their families and communities, deepening their poverty and magnifying their suffering. “It is unconscionable that the poorest, most vulnerable women and girls suffer needlessly from the devastating condition of obstetric fistula,” says Dr. Babatunde Osotimehin, Executive Director of UNFPA , the United Nations Population Fund. “These vulnerable women and girls are at the heart of UNFPA’s efforts to ensure that every pregnancy is wanted, every child birth is safe, and every young person’s potential is fulfilled.” Victims of obstetric fistula are usually among the hardest to reach, and are often illiterate and with limited access to health services, including maternal and reproductive health care. The persistence of the problem reflects broader health inequities and health-care system weaknesses, as well as wider challenges facing women and girls, ...

J.C. Tretter: Inaugural offseason Green Bay Packers Casualty

J.C. Tretter , the first to be shelved because of injury, isn’t a trend-setter because last season the Green Bay Packers were faced with a cruel hat trick of season-ending injuries to several key players – linebacker Desmond Bishop, offensive tackle Derek Sherrod and defensive back Davon House - before a down of regular season football was played. J.C. Tretter was most likely lost for 2013 with a broken ankle on the first day of OTAs in Green Bay. Packers.com photograph Mike McCarthy and Ted Thompson have become well-versed in dealing with the repercussions of the injury bug that has been infiltrating Green Bay for the better part of the last three years. In 2010, the Packers famously endured a litany of season-ending injuries to more than a baker’s dozen of starters and role players on their way – against seemingly long odds – to winning the Super Bowl XLV championship. The ability of a professional football team to avoid the consequences of injuries is a never-ending challenge for general managers, coaches and training staff. After just one Organized Team Activities (OTA) practice it appears that the issue of health – and Green Bay’s ability to persevere – is going to continue to be tested. The latest injury came when rookie offensive lineman J.C. Tretter was hurt while sliding on the field turf trying to recover a loose football during a fumble drill. Tretter, selected in the fourth round in April’s NFL draft, was a candidate to fi ...
