This report is published by Plan International for the purpose of bringing global attention to the fact that progress towards meeting the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) is being hampered by a continued lack of investment in girls and young women. The report begins with the premise that the condition and position of girls' lives matters, and that the impact of conflict on girls is far-reaching and goes beyond their experiences as either combatants or victims of violence. It intends to show how conflict affects girls differently from boys and how their rights are ignored, their responsibilities changed, and their lives altered by war. It describes how discrimination against girls is in place before the fighting begins and remains after it is over. The report also examines the implications of conflict for girls' health, girls' education, gender roles, and relationship dynamics.Because I am a Girl: The State of the World's Girls 2008 [1]

5 Best Basketball game so farmullitman | 12/03/2011 | See all mullitman's reviews (1)This is by far the best basketball game and such an improvement by 2K developers from last year. The game is much more fluent and not as sluggish as before. The graphics are amazing, my player mode is a great invention and the mj features make this a phenomenal game and really raise the bar for basketball games.
5 Worth it for the MJ stuff alonegotyrnumber | 03/03/2011 | See all gotyrnumber's reviews (31)at 17.99, you can't go wrong with this game if you are an NBA fan.This game contains the most thorough and beautifully executed digital representation of Michael Jordan's career ever seen on a video game.Along with the association and my player modes the game has hundreds of hours of game play on offer.This is the first 2K sports game I have played, been playing EA basketball games since the mid 90's. Considering this it was a little bit confusing and took a little while to get used to, but once you do get used to it you will realise that it is far superior to any EA offering.
5 Great gameJrMafiaDon | 05/02/2011 | See all JrMafiaDon's reviews (5)I cant really believe the average ratings of this game, it's amazing. It's definitely not the similar to NBA2k10 it's a huge improvement. If your not familiar with basketball it may take a while to get used to, but that would be the same with any sports game. This is not just the best basketball game but one of the best sports simulation ever released.
5 Best Basketball gameGwidooo | 24/12/2010 | See all Gwidooo's reviews (2)Having a look at the review here I cant believe people cant see how good it is!, ive been playing nba live in the past but thought I would give this a go and boy am I glad I did it, it is so relistic and could play it on & on, truly the best Basketball game ive played.
3 Similar to 2K10SIRVYVAH | 06/12/2010 | See all SIRVYVAH's reviews (4)I think the game is ok... it's very similar to 2K10 with a few adjustments. I thought I had made a mistake buying it after my first play to be honest. But I;m ok with it now.When you first start, you have to play the 91-92 Game one of the NBA finals. Of course, as the Chicago Bulls. Once you've completed this, you can go to the actual menu. Slightly annoying.Everything is the same except this time you can take part in completing some of the Jordan challenges. Of which are different than I thought. I think it would've been better to have something like playing as Jordan only and bringing him through the ranks.Nicely enough, this game comes with some old teams you may like. Unfortunately, you can't use these teams in a season. Although, disappointing enough, teams like the Bulls don't have that feeling that they're a championship side. Other than Jordan and Pippen, the rest are a little like you've put LeBron and Kobe with another 3 players from a pick up game. So you're heavily reliant on your stars - which of course can cause fatigue and annoy you when they're sent to the bench. Just hope Steve Kerr can hit 3 after 3 and Rodman gets the boards if not!I'm doing a season at the moment but I had to adjust some of my coach settings to make it feel more like I would like to play. Run n Gun!!!Some of the cut scenes can be annoying. Also some of the substitutions the computer uses but these can be fixed (slightly) by adjusting your options.Online play is as good as the players you're with or against. Half the time, people want to be heroes and play alone or something - but when you find players online who enjoy a good team game, you can get no better.Price wise, I payed 40 quid for this and, if I'm honest, if I was to trade it in, I think I would get less than half in return as Basketball isn't huge here in the UK. Drawn in by Jordan being on the cover may have something to do with it. 25-29 is a good price.Oh, also... post up play can be wicked if you master it. I've noticed Dwight Howard is alot better offensively in this game - much like that of his play in real life.All in all, it's an OK game. The thing keeping me hooked on it is the signature highlights where you see all the good things your player/s have done and winning pairs of Air Jordans - just wish they were real! LOL

Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a condition in which the ductus arteriosus does not close. The word "patent" means open.
The ductus arteriosus is a blood vessel that allows blood to go around the baby's lungs before birth. Soon after the infant is born and the lungs fill with air, the ductus arteriosus is no longer needed. It usually closes in a couple of days after birth. If the vessel doesn't close, it is referred to as a PDA.
PDA leads to abnormal blood flow between the aorta and pulmonary artery, two major blood vessels that carry blood from the heart.
PDA affects girls more often than boys. The condition is more common in premature infants and those with neonatal respiratory distress syndrome . Infants with genetic disorders, such as Down syndrome, or babies whose mothers had rubella during pregnancy are at higher risk for PDA.
PDA is common in babies with congenital heart problems, such as hypoplastic left heart syndrome, transposition of the great vessels, and pulmonary stenosis.
A small PDA may not cause any symptoms. However, some infants may have symptoms such as:
Babies with PDA often have a heart murmur that can be heard with a stethoscope. However, in premature infants, a heart murmur may not be heard. The health care provider may suspect the condition if the infant has breathing or feeding problems soon after birth.
Changes may be seen on chest x-rays. The diagnosis is confirmed with an echocardiogram.
Sometimes, a small PDA may not be diagnosed until later in childhood.
If there are no other heart defects present, often the goal of treatment is to close the PDA. If the baby has certain other heart problems or defects, keeping the ductus arteriosus open may be lifesaving. Medicine may be used to stop it from closing.
Sometimes, a PDA may close on its own. In premature babies, it often closes within the first 2 years of life. In full-term infants, a PDA that remains open after the first several weeks rarely closes on its own.
When treatment is needed, medications such as indomethacin or ibuprofen are often the first choice. Medicines can work very well for some newborns, with few side effects. The earlier treatment is given, the more likely it is to succeed.
If these measures do not work or can't be used, the baby may need to have a medical procedure.
A transcatheter device closure is a procedure that uses a thin, hollow tube placed into a blood vessel. The doctor passes a small metal coil or other blocking device through the catheter to the site of the PDA. This blocks blood flow through the vessel. These coils can help the baby avoid surgery.
Surgery may be needed if the catheter procedure does not work or it cannot be used due to the baby's size or other reasons. Surgery involves making a small cut between the ribs to repair the PDA.
If a small PDA stays open, the baby may eventually develop heart symptoms. Babies with a larger PDA could develop heart problems such as heart failure, high blood pressure in the arteries of the lungs, or an infection of the inner lining of the heart if the PDA does not close.
This condition is usually diagnosed by the health care provider who examines your infant. Breathing and feeding problems in an infant can sometimes be due to a PDA that has not been diagnosed.

All Things Connecticut on CPTV Explores the Variety and Vitality of the Nutmeg State
HARTFORD, Conn. – Connecticut is more than a state—it's a vibrant community. With All Things Connecticut, a new weekly series, Connecticut Public Television (CPTV, www.cptv.org) tells the stories that make the Nutmeg State a unique place to live, work and play. From the rugged low-tech joys of orienteering to eco-friendly recycled handbags, from fascinating biographies to stunning video essays, this new series focuses on every strange and wonderful facet of Connecticut life.
Host Diane Smith and a contributing staff of reporters bring fresh talent and homespun stories to the show. All Things Connecticut airs on Thursdays at 8 p.m. beginning April 23, with rebroadcasts on Mondays at 11 p.m. and Wednesdays at 5 p.m.
Each episode will highlight Connecticut's myriad of delights via five noteworthy segments—Spotlight on the Arts, Inside Out, Treading Lightly, Positively Connecticut™ and Capturing Connecticut.
All Things Connecticut is a CPTV production made possible with support from People's United Bank and Comcast.
Episode one of All Things Connecticut—premiering on April 23—will feature the theme Something Old Is New Again. Segment highlights include:
• Treading Lightly (Helping viewers go green with a look at our state through viridian-tinted glasses) – The first Treading Lightly segment, The Bag Ladies, will feature two Connecticut women who are creating trendy bags out of used billboards. To date, these entrepreneurs have kept 7,000 pounds of vinyl out of area landfills. The products they create are sold in boutiques all across the country and in Puerto Rico.
• Positively Connecticut™ (Shining the spotlight on people who've helped craft our state's history and on places that provide unique ideas for weekend excursions) – The Positively Connecticut™ segment on April 23 will highlight Modernism. When Philip Johnson's iconic glass house opened to the public in 2007, it was an immediate sensation. Tickets are still selling out a year in advance. The glass house is the best known of more than 100 modern homes in New Canaan that were designed by Johnson and a group of Harvard-trained architects known as the Harvard Five. The show will explore how New Canaan became a kind of laboratory for an enclave of modernist architects who flocked there in the 1940s and 1950s. And, the segment will focus on the state's efforts to save the "mid-century moderns."
• Inside Out (Taking viewers out of their homes and into Connecticut's natural playground) – The April 23 Inside Out looks at Orienteering, Nutmeg State style. Orienteering began in Scandinavia in the early 1900s as a military training exercise. Today, orienteering clubs exist throughout the United States. All Things Connecticut shows how runners in our state take off for a race against the clock—armed only with maps.
• Spotlight on the Arts (Highlighting local artists, while underscoring the economic vitality and quality of life their work provides for Connecticut) – On April 23, the focus is Puppetry and Object Theater. American theater is experiencing resurgence in puppetry, using experimental styles of performance and large scale spectacle. This segment introduces viewers to some up-and-coming Connecticut theater professionals who combine the old and the new, people and puppetry, to reach new audiences.

ACDC just released details on the new album…
'Rock or Bust', the highly anticipated new studio album from AC/DC, will be released December 2, 2014.
Featuring 11 new tracks and recorded in Spring 2014 at Warehouse Studio in Vancouver, BC, 'Rock or Bust' finds AC/DC once again working with producer Brendan O'Brien and mixer Mike Fraser.
'Rock or Bust' is the first AC/DC album in the band's 41 year history without founding member Malcolm Young on the recordings. Earlier this year AC/DC released a statement explaining that due to illness, Malcolm would be taking a break from the band. Unfortunately, due to the nature of Malcolm's condition, he will not be returning to the band. AC/DC will undertake a world tour in support of 'Rock or Bust' in 2015. Stevie Young, nephew of founding members Angus and Malcolm Young, plays rhythm guitar on 'Rock or Bust' and will accompany the band on tour.
A sneak peek of the new track 'Play Ball' will be available starting September 27th on ACDC.com and in Turner Sports 2014 Major League Baseball post season coverage on TBS.

Two more sobriety checkpoints have been announced for tonight. That makes five in central Ohio — one in Columbus, one in Licking County, two in Delaware County and one in Logan County.
Columbus police and the Franklin County DUI Task Force will operate a checkpoint at 4505 Refugee Rd., east of Hamilton Road and Citizens Place on the Far East Side, from 9 p.m. until about 3 a.m. on Saturday.
Additional officers will patrol the area, according to a release from Columbus police. Anyone who is arrested for impaired driving and refuses a chemical test will be required to submit a blood sample under a Franklin County Municipal Court order, the release said.
The Licking County checkpoint will run from 9 p.m. until 2 a.m. on Saturday on Rt. 79. An exact location was not released by the State Highway Patrol.
In Delaware County, the patrol and the sheriff's office will operate the first checkpoint from 9 to 11 p.m. on Sawmill Parkway and the second from midnight to 2 a.m. Saturday on Rt. 23, according to a release from the patrol. Exact locations were not given.
The Logan County checkpoint will run from 8 p.m. to midnight on Rt. 366 west of Township Road 94. It will be conducted by the State Highway Patrol, the Logan County sheriff's office and local police.
The Franklin County DUI Task Force says it will operate a sobriety checkpoint Friday night.
The checkpoint will be held in the 4500 block of Refugee Road in southeastern Franklin County from approximately 9:00 p.m. to 3:00 a.m. A separate checkpoint will also be held in the same area by the Columbus Division of Police.
According to authorities, saturation patrols will be used in the adjacent area, mobile breath-testing vehicles, and a "No-Refusal" period will be in effect, which means those who are arrested for impaired driving and refuse to provide a chemical test will be compelled to give a blood sample.
The Task Force says they want to impress upon those who will be consuming alcohol to plan for a designated driver or make other arrangements.

Honorable Mention
The concept of the "swollen surface" came directly the limitation of designing an original and compelling object that could be made from a single sheet of plywood measuring 4-feet x 8-feet x 1-inch.
The challenge was addressed as a design exercise in which two objectives aside from the competition requirements were to be met. The first being to optimally utilize the given surface area and thickness of the material, making full use of the material aside from the CNC milling paths of an 1/8-inch cutting bit. The second objective was to dissolve the physical and perceptual sense of flatness inherent to the material and design an object that establishes an augmented sense of dimensionality.
The response to these two design criteria resulted in the creation of a semi-ambiguous modular system with multi-functionality. Once assembled and installed, the units are meant to perceptually become an immediate extension of the host surface, expanding gradually beyond the normal or original limit of the flat context forming multi-dimensional bulges or rounded profiles.

With all of the advances in website reporting, many of us are still behind the curve when it comes to attributing the return on social media efforts. Sometimes it's very difficult toconnect the dots and see where social media is making an impact for your brand. By leveraging Google's nifty URL builder tool, marketers can track in detail the performance of content posted to social media. Although this approach is fairly basic, it gives you a clearer view of the value of your social media efforts.

Several sarcastic Twitter users bemoaned the fate of the undernourished virtual plants and animals of FarmVille, while others (presumably with a degree of self-awareness) remarked on the ramifications of the outage.

Why didn't I get radiation for ovarian cancer? I just had surgery and chemo. Would radiation have decreased the chance of my cancer coming back?
Michael Corradetti, MD, PhD, Radiation Oncology Resident at Penn Medicine, responds:
Unlike surgery and chemotherapy, radiation therapy is not typically employed as part of the primary treatment algorithm for ovarian cancer. Radiation is most often reserved for palliation (to relieve symptoms), and occasionally in the setting of recurrent disease. Clinical trials to re-examine the use of radiation therapy in the primary treatment setting are underway at various institutions but in general do not reflect the current standard of care.
Learn more about ovarian cancer and radiation therapy on OncoLink.
This question and answer was part of the OncoLink Brown Bag Chat Series. View the entire Focus on Gynecologic Cancers transcript.
Nov 1, 2010 - Radiation therapy appears to reduce recurrence rates when added to surgical treatment of rectal cancer and to increase survival when added to medical management of prostate cancer, and a highly targeted radiation approach may reduce gastrointestinal complications associated with prostate cancer treatment, according to three studies to be presented at the annual meeting of the American Society for Radiation Oncology, held from Oct. 31 to Nov. 4 in San Diego.

NEW WILMINGTON, Pa. - Westminster College senior psychology major Lyndsey Vogler and Dr. Sherri Pataki, associate professor of psychology, presented research conducted in Israel at the annual conference of the Association for Women in Psychology March 7-10 in Salt Lake City.
Vogler's presentation, "Patriarchy, Parent-Daughter Relationships and Women's Future Orientation in the U.S. and Israel," was co-authored with Dr. Randa Abass of Western Galilee College in Akko and Haya Khaldy from the Arab Academic College in Haifa.
Vogler spent a six-week internship in Israel last summer finalizing the survey for her capstone research in collaboration with Khaldy. She presented the results at Westminster's Undergraduate Research and Arts Celebration April 24.
Pataki presented "Finding the Bridge between Modern Life and Traditional Society: Druze Women in Israel." The research was conducted in collaboration with Abass and Dr. Carey Ryan at the University of Nebraska at Omaha.
"Both of these research projects were a result of Westminster College's partnership with Western Galilee College," Pataki said. "The partnership enabled us to create these international opportunities and research collaborations."
Vogler is a daughter of Paula Lenox of Beaver Falls and Dan Vogler of New Castle. She is a graduate of Blackhawk High School.
Pataki, who has been with Westminster since 2004, earned an undergraduate degree from Allegheny College and Ph.D. from Carnegie Mellon University.
Contact Pataki at (724) 946-7361 or email for additional information.

Thanks Bernie!
As for my prediction...
I'm with most of you guys...if we can actually put one in the net this time, that'd be great. Leclaire has killed us already this season.
That being said, I think the Blues will ride the momentum from the other night and squeak out a 3-2 win, in OT.
Stempy will score tonight...just you watch.

Received the necklace in gold plating and found it very lovely. Thought the crystal beads would be larger but are still very nice with lots of sparkle. Wish the chain would be 20in. but I just put an extender if I want it longer. All in all a very nice piece of jewellery

The J.Z. George Marching Band earned all-superior ratings at the Mississippi High School Activities Association's Region 2 State Marching Evaluations at Grenada High School.
According to director Lane Thompson, it was a wonderful experience for the young Carroll County musicians.
"They were extremely excited to get all-superior," Thompson said. "They were so excited they wanted to take the trophy home, but they can't. It will remain at the school."
For Thompson and the Jaguar Marching Band, it's their first all-superior rating after posting excellent ratings for the past two years. In Region 2, the band competed against area schools Eupora and Calhoun City. The J.Z. George band is in its sixth year and its third year as a marching band.
"This is an extraordinary accomplishment; we're very young with only three seniors," Thompson said. "We graduated a lot of seniors last year."
After a 30-plus year hiatus, the J.Z. George Band returned in 2007 after the program was canceled in 1974, and Thompson said with their recent accomplishments, it means the re-establishment of tradition and excellence.
"This is giving the students something to be proud of, and it builds excitement among the students," Thompson said.
Thompson takes pride in the band, and he said the diverse group of county students reflect what is so good about Carroll County.
"It is a reflection of the community," Thompson said. "Music is being taught here. We're a country band that is back in the saddle."
One of the things that Thompson, the Stewart native, is most proud of is that 95 percent of his students graduate and go on to college.
Former J.Z. George band members have gone on to play in collegiate bands like Mississippi State, Ole Miss, Alcorn State, Mississippi Valley State and Holmes Community College. One student also received a scholarship to Tougaloo College.
Next month, three students will audition for the all-state band at Pearl High School. According to Thompson, trumpeter Monae Nall, horn player Colin Different and oboist Sergio Rodriguez will audition.
"To see all of them doing something well is something to be proud of," Thompson said. "This is a great investment that the school board made with this band hall and instruments. The band is back and doing great."

Monarch soccer falls to Great Bend, 4-0
By AUSTIN COLBERT
Thomas More Prep-Marian boys' soccer coach Shawn Lawson thinks a WAC invite should be coming the Monarchs' way with the schedule they have faced this season.
"That's kind of been the story of our whole season -- we were just overmatched," Lawson said. "We should get in the WAC conference with all the games we play, always playing all these big schools. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger."
On Tuesday, the Monarchs lost 4-0 to visiting Great Bend on Senior Day, already the fifth WAC opponent they have faced this season. TMP still has rematches against Hays High and Garden City on its schedule.
The brutal schedule -- one that is loaded with 5A and 6A teams -- should be able to toughen up Class 3A TMP before regionals. At least that is the hope of the coaching staff.
"I never want to complain about it because you do learn from it," Lawson said. "Hopefully it sets us up for the postseason. We can do well against some of the smaller schools. That's always my plan. Just to get ready for postseason."
TMP competed relatively well against Great Bend on Tuesday. The difference came from a couple of costly goals early that could have been prevented and an inability to capitalize on its scoring opportunities, however few.
Great Bend, which played in the first half with a gusty wind at its back, struck first with a goal by Michael Prieto in the 5th minute. Prieto's first shot was stopped by TMP senior goalie Collan Lawson -- son of coach Shawn Lawson -- but had the shot ricochet back to Prieto who was left with an easy shot.
Prieto, the son of Great Bend soccer coach Gustavo Prieto, found net again in the 23rd minute. Collan Lawson once again blocked the first shot of Prieto with a great save, but had the ball bounce off the top of the goal post and back to Prieto. Collan Lawson was left out of position after the save and couldn't recover in time to stop Prieto from getting his second goal.
"I tipped it and it hit the post and I got caught ball watching," Collan Lawson said. "Just silly mistakes by the defense, but something you got to work on. Something that we do a lot but are getting better at."
With about eight minutes to go in the first half, Prieto got on the scoreboard one final time with a header from the left side of the goal in a crowded goalie box. Great Bend led 3-0 at the break.
"I think we moved the ball well, even in the first half with not having the wind," Shawn Lawson said. "We put stuff together. They were stringing their passes together. The offense was moving well, just stupid mistakes."
Great Bend added a final goal in the 55th minute by Emmanuel Poblano, who was at the right place at the right time after a scrum for the ball following a corner kick left him with an easy shot.
Collan Lawson had nine saves in the first half at goalie, but played middle back in the second half. Junior Keynan Hysten played in goal in the second half and recorded four saves, giving up the one goal.
"I feel like the second half we slowed down a little bit but we did keep them to only one goal," Collan Lawson said. "Our center backs worked really hard and played their butts off. Most everybody played really hard the second half. Great Bend is just good."
The schedule doesn't get any easier for TMP, which will compete at the Wichita North Tournament beginning Oct. 14, a field that includes Liberal, Garden City, Wichita North, Wichita East and Wichita Trinity.
TMP will be the eighth seed and will play top-seeded Berean Academy, a successful Class 2A team, in the first round.
"They are kind of the standard that I'd like to get to," Shawn Lawson said. "Them and Wichita Trinity. Really small schools that play bigger than what they are. They've beaten 6A schools before. How do they do that? It's something to learn from."

Katrina Claghorn, RD

Dear OncoLink "Ask the Experts,"
I read someplace that a woman trying to avoid breast cancer should have 35-60 grams of soy products per day. I bought some tofu powder (I can't abide the texture of real tofu!) and attempt to mask it in my morning oatmeal.
How many grams of tofu powder is as effective as 35-60 grams of real tofu?
Thank you.
Katrina Claghorn, RD, Section Editor of OncoLink's "Nutrition During Cancer Treatment" and "Diet and Cancer" menus, responds:
I believe that you are referring to the isoflavones which are in soy foods. The recommended intake is 30-50mg a day. These isoflavones may have many beneficial health benefits. They appear to have a protective effect against breast cancer, decrease symptoms associated with menopause as well as prevent heart disease and osteoporosis.
Isoflavones are sometimes referred to as phytoestrogens or plant estrogens.They have similar properties to human estrogen, but the are much weaker. In addition, they have a chemical shape that is very similar to human estrogen. We believe that the reason phytoestrogens may reduce the incidence of breast cancer is that they fit into the receptor site on breast tissue where estrogen usually attaches. Thus they prevent the more powerful (human) estrogen from attaching and starting the cancer-causing process.
Researchers are still investigating the mechanisms through which soy may protect against breast cancer. The current recommendation is to consume 30 to 50 mg of isoflavones daily to reduce your risk of breast cancer. The best sources of isoflavones are soy milk (30 mg/8 oz), tofu (35 mg/1/2 cup),tempeh (35-mg/1/4 cup), roasted soy nuts (60 mg/1/4 cup) and soy protein powder (approximately 60 mg/2 scoops).
Not all soy foods contain isoflavones. Soy foods made from soy protein concentrate may have little if any isoflavones,so read the ingredient label. Some doctors feel those women with estrogen positive breast cancer or who are on Tamoxifen should limit their intake of isoflavones until we have a better understanding of the effects of phytoestrogens on breast tumors.
Mar 6, 2015 - In Asian American women, high soy intake during childhood is associated with a significantly decreased breast cancer risk in adulthood, according to the results of a study published online March 24 in Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention.

I need to know What is the difference between PET and PET/CT? Is it better to get the PET/CT?
James Metz, MD, OncoLink Editor-in-Cheif, responds:
A PET scan (positron emission tomography) looks at the biologic activity of a tumor, not the shape and size of a tumor. A CT scan give anatomic information like exact location, size, and shape of a tumor with its relationship to other structures. Most times, we now go with a combined PET/CT scan so that we obtain both the biologic activity overlayed with the anatomic structure. This gives us more information. Most institutions have moved to combined PET/CT to get the best information.
This question and answer was part of the OncoLink Brown Bag Chat Series. View the entire Interpreting Test Results transcript.
May 14, 2014 - The use of positron emission tomography combined with computed tomography (PET-CT) compared with CT rarely impacts surgical management for patients with potentially resectable hepatic metastases of colorectal adenocarcinoma, according to a study published in the May 14 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association.

ISM visitors are offered a sneak preview at Barry Callebaut's brand new Decoration Inspiration Lab
- Visit Barry Callebaut's staggering booth at the ISM 2013, the world's leading confectionery trade exhibition in Cologne (27/01/2013 – 30/01/2013, Hall 10.2 booth C10 D19)
- Barry Callebaut presents its Decoration Inspiration Lab, an interactive lab aimed at developing new products in partnership with its customers
- Guided by technical advisor Jurgen Koens, customers are offered a full tailor-made decoration experience based on the latest market trends
Wieze/Belgium, January 26, 2013 – At the ISM trade exhibition, Barry Callebaut, the world's leading manufacturer of high-quality cocoa and chocolate products, introduces its new 'Decoration Inspiration Lab', which will officially open its doors in Zundert in the Netherlands on February 7, 2013. It translates Barry Callebaut's tireless search for innovation and offers customers a trendy, specialized environment to create endless variations of concepts with its decorations and products.
Center of expertise at the heart of Barry Callebaut's decoration business
Even though the Decoration Inspiration Lab will only open its doors on February 7, ISM visitors will get an exclusive introduction to its concept: at Barry Callebaut's booth, Dutchman Jurgen Koens, Technical Advisor Decorations at Barry Callebaut, will give a preview of what can be expected at the Decoration Inspiration Lab.
Building on his experience in the decoration and industrial food business, Jurgen Koens will take charge of the Decoration Inspiration Lab, which is to become a center for developing new products and for testing new concepts. The Decoration Inspiration Lab will present Barry Callebaut's decoration range in all shapes, colors, textures, designs, applications and tastes, allowing customers to identify their ideal tailored decoration. Marzipan decorations are just one example of how to personalize a finished product: small, thin and crunchy plates of sugar and almond powder, adding an element of fun to any food application. They can be printed with any decor (e.g. seasonal, personalized, branded, story-telling,…) and can be cut into any desired shape.
At the ISM, customers will receive Jurgen Koen's professional explanations regarding the possibilities of Barry Callebaut's decoration range, while being encouraged to test different products – such as the Marzipan decorations – in order to discover their personalization potential. This experience is meant to duplicate, be it on a smaller scale, what will take place in the Decoration Inspiration Lab in the Netherlands from February 7 onwards.
The Decoration Inspiration Lab is one of the very concrete answers Barry Callebaut offers to the six insights it presents at the ISM, such as the growing demand for personalization as well as top-notch quality.
A unique personalized service leading to an endless array of possibilities
"At Barry Callebaut we are determined to continue tailoring our products and innovations to the specific needs of our customers. The Decoration Inspiration Lab will be an important source of further differentiation. Through a unique interplay with our customers, based on our already vast range of decorations and the advice of our team professionals, they will be enabled to create customized decoration application ideas" says Patrick Hautphenne, Vice President Specialties & Decorations at Barry Callebaut. "We see an endless array of possibilities, which will serve as a driving force for Barry Callebaut's ambitious plans to exponentially grow the decoration business in Europe."

Hi, I am Danny Batson (Knouse) and I am a lifelong resident of the Chillicothe area. I was born in 1951 and graduated from CHS in 1969. I took over my dad's septic tank business that he founded in 1937. While I have been in every state (except Hawaii and Maine), there is no place like home! I love taking pictures of old and unusual things and sharing them. There is beauty in everything, if we look for it. I have three Facebook pages filled with local pictures that may be of interest: "Where Has Danny Been," Chillicothe Now," and "Danny Batson".
Hi, I am Gary Thomas and I was born just across from Central School in 1942. I graduated from CHS in 1960 and MU in 1964. After two years in Army, I completed a graduate degree at the University of Chicago in 1970. After working in software development for more than 40 years, I retired from Raytheon in 2007. I have an abiding interest in history and in researching past events, places, and people. My latest project is developing a history-based chronology for Livingston County from 1801-2000.
Judge Joe Slagle: Chapter Three: His First Five Wives (1832-1851)
Joe Slagle came to Missouri in 1839 from Ohio and sold goods at Cox's Mill, which he bought soon afterward. The mill was on Medicine Creek, then the only water mill in Northwest Missouri. A family source written in 1890 indicates that his property suffered a devastating fire in 1845 and Joe had to rebuild. No other details were provided.
In 1846 he was elected to the official bench of the county and served until about 1850. Joe was also a justice of the peace for many years and officiated at numerous weddings. He was one of the largest property holders in Livingston County, having in his possession some 1,400 acres of land.
As stated in Chapter Two, the "Official 1886 History" was sanctioned by Joe himself and does not match well with other reliable sources on certain key information. Some of these sources were early genealogy accounts and official Livingston County records from that time. Also some dates on the Slagle Cemetery markers are simply not correct; which doesn't help matters either.
The following is my current understanding about Joe's first five wives (consorts) and children born of each union. Also included is my pure speculation as to whether Joe aided and abetted the demise of any of these wives. Since there was never any proof of wrongdoing, why suggest that he may have murdered some or all? Read what follows for my rationale and you decide. Also note where the first three wives came from!
First wife, on January 27, 1832 he married Catherine Long of Greene County, Ohio; she died June 8, 1841. They had five children:

Hemoglobin derivatives are altered forms of hemoglobin . Hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells that moves oxygen and carbon dioxide between the lungs and body tissues.
This article discusses the test used to detect and measure the amount of hemoglobin derivatives in your blood.
Methemoglobin; Carboxyhemoglobin; Sulfhemoglobin
The test is done using a small needle to collect a sample of blood from an artery. The sample may be collected from an artery in the wrist, groin, or arm.
Before blood is drawn, the health care provider may test circulation to the hand (if the wrist is the site). After the blood is drawn, pressure applied to the puncture site for a few minutes stops the bleeding.
No special preparation is needed.
For children, it may help to explain how the test will feel and why it is done. This may make the child feel less nervous.
You may feel slight pain or a sting when the needle is inserted. You may also feel some throbbing at the site after the blood is drawn.
This test is used to diagnose carbon monoxide poisoning . It is also used to detect changes in hemoglobin that may result from certain drugs. Some chemicals or drugs can change the hemoglobin so it no longer works properly.
Abnormal forms of hemoglobin include:
The following values represent the percentage of hemoglobin derivatives based on total hemoglobin:
Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
The examples above show the common measurements for results for these tests. Some laboratories use different measurements or may test different specimens.
High levels of hemoglobin derivatives can lead to significant health problems. The altered forms of hemoglobin do not allow oxygen to be moved properly through the body. This can lead to tissue death.

Rush Pikes Peak Scores New Director Of Soccer Operations
Brian Lux, a familiar face to Rush Pikes Peak, has been named to the new position of Director of Soccer Operations.
Adding to Brian's responsibilities of coaching several Colorado Springs teams and directing the Youth Girls, Brian is stepping into a newly created role of Director of Soccer Operations for the club. He will oversee the day to day operations and lead the office and technical staff.
Local Focus
"I am very excited by this new challenge," explained Brian. "With more and more players joining Rush in Colorado Springs, we are able to add a position so that we can really focus on developing and growing our local branch."
In 3 years Rush Pikes Peak has grown from 500 players to 800, and Brian's goal is to continue growing at this rate. With the Pikes Peak team focused on developing players and programs, more and more Colorado Springs families are seeing how the Rush way provides the best opportunities for development at all levels.
"Being a part of the biggest youth soccer club in the world is a great thing," said Brian. "Locally we have some work to do, but the goal is to become the best club in Southern Colorado and eventually in the state. We will work hard every day to reach that goal."

A former semi-pro goalkeeper, Brian is also Rush Soccer's Technical Director for the Caribbean. Spreading the Rush way internationally, Brian has had the privilege of developing Rush in the Caribbean with 1 club in the Bahamas, 2 in Haiti, 1 in Curacao and more to come.
