SANTIAGO Adidas Superstar Adicolor Pas Cher , Feb. 27 (Xinhua) -- UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon lamented here on Friday the "slow and unequal" rise of women in global politics at a high-level conference.
"There are many more women in the global political arena, but progress is very slow and unequal," Ban said at the UN Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women).
The conference, due to be concluded on Saturday, aims to find ways to speed up progress on the goals defined 10 years ago at the 1995 World Conference on Women.
On average Adidas Superstar Homme Pas Cher , women represent only one-fifth of lawmakers, and out of more than 190 countries, only 20 have women heads of state, he said.
Governments must do what they can to help women break through the glass ceiling that blocks their access to decision-making posts, whether within the UN organizations Adidas Superstar Femme Pas Cher , governments or the private sectors, he said.
"When women lead, we all benefit. We see it here. Under President Michelle Bachelet, Chile has promoted initiatives for the participation of women in politics," Ban said.
Latin America has made headway Adidas Stan Smith Pas Cher , Ban noted, with one out of four lawmakers in the region in 2014 being a woman, double the number in 1995, and six of the region's heads of state being women.
To make further progress, however Adidas Superstar 2 Pas Cher , countries "need to invest more in gender equality," said the UN chief, saying the only way to eradicate violence against women is to have more women in positions of power.
"We have to change the mentality of men," Ban told the gathering, attended by some 60 women leaders from around the world.
WASHINGTON Adidas Superstar W Pas Cher , May 27 (Xinhua) -- U.S. space agency NASA said Wednesday it has ordered the first-ever commercial crew flight to the International Space Station from the Boeing Company as part of an ongoing effort to restore America's human spaceflight capabilities by 2017.
Another company, SpaceX, is expected to receive its first order later this year, NASA said, adding that it will decide at a later time about which company will be the first to fly.
Boeing and SpaceX were selected in September 2014 to build the United States' commercial passenger spacecraft Adidas Superstar Rose Pas Cher , the Crew Space Transportation (CST)-100 and Dragon, respectively. The vehicles' first flights were currently planned for 2017.
NASA explained in a statement that flight orders are made two to three years prior to the missions "to provide time for each company to manufacture and assemble the launch vehicle and spacecraft."
According to the space agency, Boeing has successfully demonstrated that its commercial crew transportation system, including the CST-100 spacecraft, has reached design maturity appropriate to proceed to assembly Adidas Superstar Rouge Pas Cher , integration and test activities.
Separately, SpaceX successfully performed a pad abort test of its flight vehicle earlier this month.
Under NASA's contracts, both companies will respectively fly a minimum of two and a maximum potential of six missions.
NASA has had to rely on Russian spacecraft to transport its astronauts to the space station and back since the space shuttle program retired in 2011.

LONDON， Aug. 13 (Xinhua) -- Newly promoted Hull City， already tipped to be relegated before a ball had even been kicked， faced last season's glory boys， league champions Leicester City， and the underdogs won 2-1.
Leicester headed to the north coastal city of Hull for their opening match against a team that currently has no manager， barely enough players to make up a team， and an army of angry and frustrated fans.
Last season， against all the odds， and ranked as outsiders， Leicester pulled off what has been described as one of the biggest ever shocks in the world of football by winning the Premier league to become champions.
Just as Leicester， against the odds， were crowned kings of football in May， Hull City Saturday beat the champions 2-1.
Before the match Hull City fans protested against the current owners of the club demanding a change of ownership， waving banners and posters.
According to local media Saturday， among the crowd Saturday afternoon at the KCOM Stadium were representatives from a Chinese consortium， headed by billionaire business woman Hawken Xi Liu and her brother Dai Yongge. Local and national media reports in Britain this week say the consortium is in advanced talks about buying the club which was put up or sale some time ago.
What the Chinese delegation thought of the pre-match demo Saturday is anybody's guess， but they cannot fail to have been impressed by the action on the pitch， watching Adama Diomande take the lead for Hull City just before the half time break. Minutes later Leicester's Riyad Mahrez grabbed a penalty to level the score. Ten minutes later the score was settled with a goal by Hull City's Robert Snodgrass.
Known as the Tigers， the newcomers to Premier League football managed to outfox last season's conquering heroes， .
