The International Court of Justice (ICJ) and the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (ICTY) ruled that the mass execution of Bosniak men and boys in Srebrenica constituted genocide.

“The Srebrenica Memorial will help keep alive the memory of those that perished in the awful event. It is important to keep their memory alive so as to prevent future tragedies like this from occurring in Bosnia and elsewhere in the world” says Samir Becic the founder of Health Fitness Revolution.

New Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner Challenges Mayors of NY and LA to do #PushUpsEverywhere https://www.healthfitnessrevolution.com/new-houston-mayor-sylvester-turner-challenges-mayors-of-ny-and-la-to-do-pushupseverywhere/ https://www.healthfitnessrevolution.com/new-houston-mayor-sylvester-turner-challenges-mayors-of-ny-and-la-to-do-pushupseverywhere/#respond Mon, 14 Dec 2015 17:33:29 +0000 http://www.healthfitnessrevolution.com/?p=9706 Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner joined the #PushUpsEverywhere campaign in an effort to raise obesity awareness in his city. Mr. Turner easily did his 10 push-ups, then challenging the Mayor of New York City, Bill De Blasio, and the Mayor of Los Angeles, Eric Garcetti to do 10 #PushUpsEverywhere to promote health in their cities as well. Mayor Turner also said if they completed theirs, he would do 20 more!

Mayor Sylvester Turner was elected Mayor of Houston on December 12, 2015, to serve a four year term beginning January 4, 2016. Sylvester Turner was born and raised in the Acres Homes community in northwest Houston. His parents moved to Acres Homes in 1954, the year Sylvester was born.

Sylvester’s mother worked as a maid in the old Rice Hotel in Houston. His father worked as a painter for Continental Ensco and cut yards with his sons on the weekends to make extra money. The Turners raised nine children in their modest two-bedroom home in Acres Homes. Sylvester lost his father to cancer when he was 13 years old. Afterward, his mother took over the Turner household. Although she never finished high school or learned to drive, she ensured her children got an education and inspired them to achieve.

Sylvester attended neighborhood public schools until forced integration came to Houston and he was bused to Klein High School. After a predictably rocky start, the student body adapted to its new enrollees – and Sylvester was later elected president of the student body and graduated as valedictorian.

Sylvester graduated from the University of Houston and Harvard Law School before joining the law firm of Fulbright & Jaworski. He later founded the Houston law firm of Barnes & Turner in 1983.
