The Lupus Foundation of America (LFA), founded in 1977, is a national voluntary health organization based in Washington, D.C. with a network of chapters, offices and support groups located in communities throughout the United States. The Foundation is devoted to solving the mystery of lupus, one of the world’s cruelest, most unpredictable and devastating diseases, while giving caring support to those who suffer from its brutal impact. Its mission is to improve the quality of life for all people affected by lupus through programs of research, education, support and advocacy.
The Lupus Foundation of America is a charitable organization with tax-exempt status granted under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Foundation is a BBB Accredited Charity[2] and highly rated by Charity Navigator.[3]

Research[edit]
The Lupus Foundation of America’s National Research Program is focused on identifying the causes of lupus, accelerating development of new treatments and finding cures. It employs a three-pronged approach to advancing the science and medicine of lupus - lead efforts to improve lives today and find cures, fund direct grants to researchers in medical institutions across the U.S. to advance the lupus research field, and advocate for new money and expanded resources from the biggest funders in research-the federal government and the pharmaceutical and biotech industry. The Lupus Foundation of America’s Center for Clinical Trials Education also provides a comprehensive search tool for clinical trials, points to consider before participating in a clinical trial and a guide to clinical research terms.
The Foundation’s direct grant programs, combined with their advocacy efforts, have led to a total investment of $80 million for lupus research and education.
Education & Support[edit]
The Foundation provides answers to questions and gives caring support to people with lupus and their loved ones. The organization works with lupus experts[4] to answer questions, provide tools, resources and referrals to doctors who treat lupus, and help guide all those affected by lupus toward a better quality of life. In 2016, the Foundation conducted a National Needs Assessment on Lupus to take a broad, yet in-depth look at the very specific needs and wants of the diverse lupus patient, caregiver and health care professional communities. In response, the Foundation created the National Resource Center on Lupus – a one-stop resource for all things lupus. The National Resource Center on Lupus aims to connect, empower and educate those whose lives are impacted by lupus by providing trustworthy, reliable and high-quality resources, programs and emotional support services. The Foundation also developed more than 600 medically-reviewed resources in English and Spanish about all aspects of lupus. New content is added on a regular basis developed in response to the needs of the lupus community. Children and teens with the disease can find specialized content created just for them based on their input and unique perspectives. .[5] Through their National Health Educator Call Center and programs conducted by their National Network, the organization provides direct education, support and referrals for more than 40,000 people.[6] They also provide information to nearly 9 million people through their website annually.[7]
Advocacy[edit]
The Lupus Foundation of America and its network of lupus activists across the country have worked diligently to stimulate more than $66 million in federal and state funds for lupus research and education programs.[8] The organization works daily with the United States Congress, federal government agencies and state legislatures to make biomedical research and innovation for lupus a priority. The Foundation’s activists successfully stimulated more than $90 million in new funding for lupus research and education programs since 2004. The Foundation stimulated $28 in federal lupus research and education for every $1 invested in advocacy.[9]
Awareness[edit]
The Foundation’s signature fundraising program, Walk to End Lupus Now™, has events in more than 60 communities and 70,000 participants, generating visibility, public understanding and support for people with lupus. Money raised is used to support lupus research, education and advocacy programs that serve to improve the quality of life for all people affected by lupus. The Foundation’s multi-media campaign, KNOW LUPUS, continues to educate people about lupus and its impact, has resulted in more than $31 million in donated media and 839 million impressions.[10]

Drafting of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
John Peters Humphrey
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights was drafted from early 1947 to late 1948 by Drafting Committee the first United Nations Commission on Human Rights. Further discussion and amendments were made by the Commission on Human Rights, the Economic and Social Council and the General Assembly of the United Nations.
Members of the Commission who contributed significantly to the creation of the Declaration included Canadian John Peters Humphrey of the United Nations Secretariat, Eleanor Roosevelt of the United States (who chaired the Drafting Committee), René Cassin of France, Charles Malik of Lebanon, P. C. Chang of Republic of China (Taiwan),[a] and Hansa Mehta of India[1] among others. While not a member of the drafting committee, the French philosopher Jacques Maritain was influential in the lead up to the drafting of the Universal Declaration, advocacy for it within UNESCO in 1947-8, and in its subsequent advancement.

Membership of the Drafting Committee[edit]
The Drafting Committee[2] included
Eleanor Roosevelt, United States (Chair)
Peng Chun Chang, Republic of China
Charles Habib Malik, Lebanon
William Roy Hodgson, Australia
Hernán Santa Cruz, Chile
René Cassin, France
Alexander E. Bogomolov, Soviet Union
Charles Dukes, United Kingdom
John Peters Humphrey, Canada
The drafting process[edit]
John Peters Humphrey was newly appointed as Director of the Division of Human Rights within the United Nations Secretariat.[3] In this role, he produced the first draft of a list of rights that were to form the basis of the Declaration.
A portico with four columns, which Cassin saw as a metaphor for the format of his draft
The underlying structure of the Universal Declaration was introduced in its second draft which was prepared by René Cassin working from the Humphrey draft. The structure was influenced by the Code Napoleon, including a preamble and introductory general principles.[4]
Cassin compared the Declaration to the portico of a Greek temple, with a foundation, steps, four columns and a pediment. Articles 1 and 2 are the foundation blocks, with their principles of dignity, liberty, equality and brotherhood. The seven paragraphs of the preamble, setting out the reasons for the Declaration, are represented by the steps. The main body of the Declaration forms the four columns. The first column (articles 3-11) constitutes rights of the individual, such as the right to life and the prohibition of slavery. The second column (articles 12-17) constitutes the rights of the individual in civil and political society. The third column (articles 18-21) is concerned with spiritual, public and political freedoms such as freedom of religion and freedom of association. The fourth column (articles 22-27) sets out social, economic and cultural rights.
In Cassin's model, the last three articles of the Declaration provide the pediment which binds the structure together. These articles are concerned with the duty of the individual to society and the prohibition of use of rights in contravention of the purposes of the United Nations.[5]
The Cassin draft was submitted to the Commission on Human Rights and was to undergo editing in the Commission, then in further drafts considered by the Third Committee of the United Nations, and finally in a draft before the General Assembly of the United Nations, which ultimately adopted the Declaration on 10 December 1948. The vote for the declaration was 48 to 0 with eight abstentions: the Byelorussian Soviet Socialist Republic, Czechoslovakia, the People's Republic of Poland, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, the Union of South Africa, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, and the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.[6]
Controversies[edit]
The first controversy to resolve was related to the very origin of the human rights, basically the discussion between the supporters of the concepts of natural rights (which humans are endowed by God or Nature) and positive rights (which humans acquire as a result of a rational agreement).[7]
The second controversy was basically between the positions of the Marxist theory of the Soviet Bloc and the liberal theory of the Western World. In philosophical terms, the Soviet Bloc criticized the individualist stance of the issue, arguing in favor of the collectivism approach, where the rights of the collective dominate that of an individual. In political terms, the Soviet Union and its satellites, facing mounting accusations of human rights violations (and defending itself in the "And you are lynching Negroes" style), argued that the declaration is a mere formality if it would not consider guarantees of economic and social rights. However these objections were of surprisingly little consequence, because the Soviet Block was not very active during the seating of the Commission, perhaps indicating a preestablished decision not to sign the Declaration.[7]
Another issue is the legal status of the declaration. The majority considered the document to be mainly of moral character. At the same time some participants argued in favor of adding certain legal aspects in terms of international law.[7]
British representatives in particular were extremely frustrated that the proposal had moral but no legal obligation. (It was not until 1976 that the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights came into force, giving a legal status to most of the Declaration) [8]

Production[edit]
On May 8, 2017, USA Network announced Psych: The Movie.[3] All the original main cast returned for the TV movie, directed by series creator Steve Franks and written by Franks and series star James Roday. Zachary Levi was later announced as the main villain, "Thin White Duke,"[4] while Jazmyn Simon – co-star Dulé Hill's real-life fiancée – plays Selene, a romantic interest for Gus.[5] On July 5, 2017, WWE wrestler Charlotte Flair announced that she would be in Psych: The Movie as Heather Rockrear.[6]
On June 28, 2017, former guest star Ralph Macchio joined the cast, reprising his role as Nick Conforth,[7] the police academy officer who trained Shawn and Gus in season 5. Principal photography took place from May 25 to June 18[8][9] in Vancouver, British Columbia. It was later announced that Omundson would have a reduced role due to a stroke, but would still appear. In addition, Kurt Fuller and Jimmi Simpson were confirmed to be reprising their respective roles of Woody Strode and Mary Lightly.[10]
At a Comic Con gathering, Steve Franks also announced he hoped to make five additional TV movies, and was looking to the Fast and Furious franchise for inspiration.[11]
On October 7, 2017 at New York Comic Con, the cast announced the movie would be released on December 7, 2017 on USA Network.[12]
Plot[edit]
Shawn, Gus and Juliet have relocated to San Francisco. After Juliet's partner Sam is shot, the Psych team attempts to find out who did it and why. Additionally, while a mysterious organization is blackmailing Juliet (by insinuating she has done something illegal), Shawn refuses to get married until he can locate his grandmother's stolen engagement ring, Chief Vick's daughter Iris has fallen in with a bad crowd, and Gus is being pursued by an attractive woman who uses all the best moves in his own playbook.

Notes[edit]
Jump up ^ Timothy Omundson's Carlton Lassiter appears in only one scene that was filmed outside the main shoot in Vancouver months later. Omundson was planned to have a bigger role but due to Omundson having a stroke just before shooting was to begin, the movie had to be partially rewritten, resulting in Omundson only appearing in one scene.

The original American broadcast premiere of Psych: The Movie on USA Network received 1.26 million viewers and was the most watched scripted program of the day. It also achieved a demo of 0.5 in the 18-49 category, matching the demo from multiple season 8 episodes, while beating the demo scores of many USA Network original shows' episodes in 2017.[16]
Critical reception[edit]
Entertainment Weekly graded it with a "B+."[17] Danette Chavez of AV Club gave it a "B" saying "Psych: The Movie is lively and lightweight, buoyed by Roday and Hill's bond, which hasn't diminished at all in the last three years. Its structure is classic Psych."[18] The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported a 100% approval rating based on 14 reviews.[19]
