Ticks are small, insect-like creatures that live in woods and fields. They attach to you as you brush past bushes, plants, and grass. Once on you, ticks often move to a warm, moist location. They are often found in the armpits, groin, and hair. Ticks attach firmly to your skin and begin to draw blood for their meal. This process is painless. Most people will not notice the tick bite .
Ticks can be fairly large -- about the size of a pencil eraser. They can also be so small that they are very hard to see. Ticks can cause a number of health conditions. Some of these can be serious.
While most ticks do not carry diseases, some ticks can cause:
If a tick is attached to you, follow these steps to remove it:
Call your doctor if you have not been able to remove the entire tick. Also call if in the days following a tick bite you develop:

Don't worry Mike. When I blog about the race, I'll write it as a moral victory. That's just as good, right?

when you forget to write down his coach specified wattage on your top tube for the ride you get lazy.
When you get lazy, you talk other riders into being lazy with you.
When other riders get lazy they get dropped.
When you get dropped, you get made fun of and appear online for others to mock you for free advertising!

Pretty much. Bar tape left over from October (breast cancer awareness) and borrowed the wife's race wheel since I haven't got time to build a set for myself just now. Personally I think it's a pretty hot look for me.
Of course, this all implies that my wife rides and races, which she does, which is also a pretty good look for me. - May 1, 2012 at 8:30 AM

Cataract removal is surgery to remove a clouded lens (cataract ) from the eye. Cataracts are removed to help you see better. The procedure almost always includes placing an artificial lens (IOL) in the eye.
Cataract surgery is an outpatient procedure. This means you likely do not have to stay overnight at a hospital. The surgery is performed by an ophthalmologist. This is a medical doctor who specializes in eye diseases and eye surgery.
Adults are usually awake for the procedure. Numbing medicine (local anesthesia) is given using eyedrops or a shot. This blocks pain. You will also get medicine to help you relax. Children usually receive general anesthesia. This makes them unconscious and unable to feel pain.
The doctor uses a special microscope to view the eye. A small cut (incision) is made in the eye.
The lens is removed in one of the following ways, depending on the type of cataract:
After the cataract is removed, a manmade lens, called an intraocular lens (IOL), is usually placed into the eye. It helps improve your vision.
The doctor may close the incision with very small stitches. Usually, a self-sealing (sutureless) method is used. If you have stitches, they may need to be removed later.
The surgery lasts less than half an hour. Most times, just one eye is done. If you have cataracts in both eyes, your doctor may suggest waiting at least 1 to 2 weeks between each surgery.
Cataract extraction; Cataract surgery
The normal lens of the eye is clear (transparent). As a cataract develops, the lens becomes cloudy. This blocks light from entering your eye. Without enough light, you cannot see as clearly.
Cataracts are painless. They are most often seen in the elderly. Sometimes children are born with them . Cataract surgery is usually done if you cannot see well enough because of cataracts. Cataracts usually do not damage your eye, so you and your eye doctor can decide when surgery is right for you.
In rare cases, the entire lens cannot be removed. If this happens, a procedure to remove all of the lens fragments will be done at a later time. Afterward, vision of most patients is still improved.
Very rare complications can include infection and bleeding. This can lead to permanent vision problems.
Before surgery, you will have a complete eye exam and eye tests by the ophthalmologist.
The doctor will use ultrasound or a laser scanning device to measure your eye. These tests help determine the best IOL for you.
Your doctor may prescribe eyedrops before the surgery. Follow instructions exactly on how to use the drops.
Before you go home, you may receive the following:
You will need to have someone drive you home after surgery.
You will usually have a follow-up exam with your doctor the next day. If you had stitches, you will need to make an appointment to have them removed.
Tips for recovering after cataract surgery:
Recovery takes about 2 weeks. If you need new glasses or contact lenses, you can usually have them fitted at that time. Keep your follow-up visit with your doctor.
Most patients do well and recover quickly after cataract surgery.
If a person has other eye problems, such as glaucoma or macular degeneration , the surgery may be more difficult or the outcome may not be as good.

Pemaquid Point Lighthouse
PO Box 339 Bristol ME 04539 3115 Bristol Road New Harbor , ME US 04554
The Park facilities are open Mon - Sun: 9:00 am - 5:00 pm from early May - late October.
Commissioned by John Quincy Adams in 1827, this Maine lighthouse has the Fisherman's Museum on the first floor in the Keepers House, and there is the possibility of renting the apartment on the second floor. The museum contains artifacts of local maritime history, as well as items from the lighthouse itself. For those who prefer not to climb the tower, there is a second Fresnel lens in the museum.
The Pemaquid Point Lighthouse Park is located at the entrance to Muscongus Bay and Johns Bay, in the town of Bristol. The Town of Bristol purchased the park property from the Coast Guard in 1940 with the exception of the light tower. Pemaquid Point Lighthouse Park is managed by the Bristol Parks Commission. It is the lighthouse on the Maine State Quarter, making it the first lighthouse to be featured on a piece of US currency. Frequently a choice for destination weddings, the rocky cliffs, crashing waves and beautiful grounds are worth the trip down the peninsula.
There is a $2.00/person admission fee. Included in the fee is access to the Fisherman's Museum in the Keeper's House, the Pemaquid Art Gallery, the Learning Center, picnic areas and rest rooms. The Light Tower is an active tower and owned by the US Coast Guard. It is managed by the Friends of Pemaquid Point Light. Entrance to the Tower is included in your admission at no additional cost. It is open weather permitting.
Tickets are good for the full day of your visit. You may leave the Park, return at a later time the same day using the ticket issued at the Gate House for readmission. Group rates are available for tour buses and school group. Contact the Park to make advance reservations.
Photos and in depth descriptions are available on Facebook along with upcoming events at Pemaquid Point Lighthouse Park throughout the season. https://www.facebook.com/pemaquidlighthouse

.. � ��* V College News VOL. XIV. No. 22 BRYN MAWR (AND WAYNE). PA.. WEDNESDAY. APRIL 25.1928 PRICE. 10 CENTS , FACULTY SUNK BY ENGLISH PLAYERS Game Saturday Afternoon Full of Foggy British Atmosphere. REPORTER AT LARGE A gray, oozy, dismal day, made for shivering and cursing; Saturday too� even the best dispositions were becom- ing curdled. The interior of the college was a squalid welter of cigarette butts, rusty, cheerless grates, week-old Satur- day Evening Posts without covers, and scattered playing cards. The exterior was wet, cold, and dreary, with a wind insistent-^ipon impressing all these un- pleasant facts. Then a rumor" trickled through the-sodden college masses, and assorted atoms, overcoming inertia, trickled down to ihe lower hockey field to investigate the rumor. �What in the name of, and why? No answer. But there was a hockey game going on. English players against the faculty had been the whisper. No doubt: the rumor was true, fragments of the faculty could be seen hurtling about the field. Dr. Ernst Diez in grey flannel trousers and a sweater was stealthily prowling about in the back- ground hoping inadvertently to come upon the elusive ball. Dr. flart. pre- cariously preserving a tinge of "la vie scolaire" by wearing a black tie, dashed madly up and down the side-alley, an expression of concentrated martyrdom on his face. Miss Cary, Miss Bartle and Miss Sloan in the center of the field were being coolly and calmly efficient. Dr. Evans, playing the first hockey of his career, was a star or rather a comet in embryo, flashing after the ball with glittering speed. Dr. Fieser rose (or should we say fell) to the occasion in his usual spectacular style; he and Mr. May Day Calendar \ Friday, April 27th, Little May Day Dress Rehearsals (open to students, of the College only) : Mghday Afternoon.

They dance out onto sartorial touch to the Faculty line-up. The real sartorial effects however were achieved by the opposing team. No' doubt about its being an English team. A Magic Carpet non-stop flight from the mother country seemed the only very plausible explanation. Here was an unalloyed cross-section of the playing fields of wherever it was. Brightly striped blazers lay about on the bank with an air of limp and aloof haughti- ness. On the field long, lean personages in silk shirts, shorts, and socks with tasseled garters, played the game with a calm and somewhat detached efficiency which contrasted with the. hectic concen- tration of the faculty. "Well played!" Cicely Hamilton urged on her team. And the setting was as perfect as the actors. A gray, chilly drizzle, with Jhe vivid green turf and vague foliage gleaming through, the English mus^ have felt themselves in pleasantly familiar surroundings, but for the spectators it was a bit damp and cold. "Let a Smile Be Your Umbrella" was the motto of this sodden but enthusiastic group. And so the game progressed. Five men and four women on each side, heavy hitting, and continual advances and re- treats. There was a decent, level of politeness preserved, but the ideal of chivalry was wisely not pursued too far. The faculty team slowly sank to defeat. Goal by goal the British team piled up CONTINUED ON PAGE * Little May Day Rivals' Big Sister on Friday Little May Day, dwarfed by the pro- portions of its big,sister the week after, is almost overlooked, in years like ..this. But it is a tradition hot!) simple and lovely, all the lovelier for its compara- tive effortlessness. On Little May Day scholarships for the following year arc read in chapel to the usual aceompani-. ment of cheering and applause; but this is merely the hard kernel of the cere-' monies. They' begin_ at dawn, and the effect of them has not quite passed away at ten o'clock when classes are officially resumed. . At 6.15, or thereabouts, the Sopho- mores, who have risen in the cold, misty morning and tillecj many, baskets .with flowers gathered on the day before, make a tour of their respective halts, singing awakening songs and hanging the bas- kets on the union' doors. Aroused in this pleasant way everyone gets up and dresses herself in white, and goes out. At seven, tli^ Senior's gather on Rock Tower and sing a hymn to the rising sun, who bears- them no grudge though he has probably been up for some hours. Breakfast follows, hallowed by chipped beef and strawberries, a time-honored and inalienable menti. When justice has been" done to this, the May procession Faculty Additions New Professors for English �i� Economics and Latin �'- Departments. the green and each class gathers round its may-pole, and winds as well as its experience �and talent permit. When all are wound, the entire college dances around the Senior-may-pole on Denbigh Green, and the May Queen, the Presi- dent of the Senior Class, who this year is Catherine Field, is crowned with flow- ers. At eight-fifteen, as usual, chapel is held, and the scholarships announced. Then come the rolling and presentation of hoops; and finally, singing on the steps, elaborately prolonged till all thought of nine o'clocks are out of the question. Peggy Passes Peggy Manning, one of the smallest, yet one of the most loved of campus figures, has been taken from us. Though by nature as gentle as a lamb, she was. deranged by grief. Soon after the college students left for vacation she was seen moping about the door of Taylor, with the tears coursing 'down heY nose. A few days more, and she entered on a career of crime. When she was accused of biting several people, her owners felt they could no longer keep her. So she was sent away to be dis- posed of. May she rest in peace, where the blue begins. Positive Action Urged in Sunday G. A. Meeting The Sunday evening meeting of the Christian Association, held in the Music Room of Goodhart Hall, was led by Vir- ginia Atmore, '28. "Perhaps nowhere else as in college," began Miss Atmore, "can one find so much intelligent discussion of the exist- ing state of affairs. Everywhere lfttle groups are formed criticizing individuals and organizations, policies and actions; and everyone has her own theory of wherein the fault lies, and of how the particular system should be improved." This criticism, when undertaken con- structively, is doubtless an excellent thing, for it creates issues, rouses public 6pinion to" action, and makes for prog- ress. But there is a type of criticism which is destructive. This type is usually due to indifference and results in stag- nancy of ideas and little progress. Mel- ancholy, and the'easy acceptance of the existing evil in the pmaufsystem, is so enjoyab'.e that we are prone to think about our excellent methods of reform rather than to put our theories into prac- tice. � It is so simple to sit still and wait for things to be presented to us on a silver CONTINUED ON PAGE 4 English Honors Work to Include Various Fields "For ten or twelve years each depart- ment in college has wanted to have j Honor's work,' began Miss Lucy Don- nelly in chapel last Friday morning. "President Park has added to the num- ber of instructors, with this in mind. There has been a great deal of con- structive conversation on this subject be- tween the undergraduates, and the cur- riculum committee has contributed many helpful suggestions. We are now ready to offer Honor's work in English next year." The object of Honor's work! Professor DenneUy explained, is to give the student more, opportunity for advanced and in- dependent work under the guidance o{ instructors. This will be done through the means of conferences and discus- sion groups. The amount of discussion which can be obtained will depend upon the number of students, and the way in which they C/in be grouped. "Discussion is the-grcat modern idea of education. Right now the lecture system is ill re- garded, but lectures, after all, will al- ways have at least a small place in teach- ing." Certain students will be suggested for this work, others can apply, It will be based \ipon the regular .English course. Ten semester hours will be required each year. There will be several fields in which the student can work according to her interest. These will include differ- ent periods of English literature. The work* in Honors will be shared by all members-of the-department except Pro- fessors Crandall, King and Clark. Pro- fessors Chew, Herben, Donnelly and Miss Clark will be in charge of the work, working in different fields. "The Curriculum Committee was right in desiring to have the work correlated with other subjects. I want to assure you of our good will in that intention. A comprehensive examination will be held for every one taking major English at the end of the year. It will cover the entire field of English literature, and will be given not only by our professors but by outsiders so as to obtain a general point of view." Big Five Confer Student Government Subject of Discussion at Wrellesley. Attention i On May 4 and 5 luncheon will be served by the Art Club to students and all their friends and relations. The price will be $1.50, and it is suggested that tickets be bought now from V. Fain, Pembroke West. {Specially contributed by R. Cross, '29) A conference of hve colleges, Wel- lesley, Vassar, Smith, Mount Holyoke, and Bryn Mawr was held at Wellesley April 13 to 13 to discuss problems of student government. There were three round table discussions on the subjects of "The Development of Responsibility in the Individual" and on "Law En- forcement," and one general discussion at'which Miss F.mma Marshall Denk- ingcr. the Dean of Wheaton College, Spoke. The discussions took up the in- dividual problems of the various col- leges, such as social legislation, which included smoking, motoring, registration of absence, and chapel, and also the more -general problem of creating public opinion in favor of student government. It was suggested that there are three functions of student government: 1. The safety of the individual 2. The convenience of the community 3. The protection of the name of the college; and that the aim of student government is the creation of an academic atmos- phere by means of the individual and community responsibility of the mem- bers. There will be more than one new face in the ranks of the Faculty next year, and several new courses in the curricu- lum for y)28-20, it was learned this week. ' In the English, Department there will be two new additions. Dr. Stephen J. Herben, who has- been Associate Pro- fessor in the Department of English' at Princeton, will come to fill the place of lecturer on .Early and Middle English Literature, left vacant by the departure of Dr. Brown. Dr. Herben is extremely popular at Princeton. The Daily Prince- Ionian, bewailing his departure from that institution, called him "not only a brilliant scholar in the field of research, but also an inspirational and sound teacher/ - 'jnwing from the students themselves, this is High praise. Dr. Her- ben will give a three-hour course in Farty English Literature, including Beo- wulf, lit 12.00, and a course in Middle English Literature, which will cover Chaucer' and go more fully than usual into his continental background, at lo.oo. Miss Clark, who has been a reader in English this year, will also be a" member of the English Faculty, and will give a course in the Victorian poets, and another in Elizabethan Drama. This will include *nore Shakespeare than the Elizabethan Drama course has done in the past, and there will be less textual criticism. Bryn Mawr Graduate Returns A very interesting api>ointment is that of Dr. Eleanor Dulles, Bryn Mawr, '17, to the EconoViics Department. Dr. Dulles is one of Bryn Mawr's mostdis- tinguished graduates. She is the grand- daughter of John W. Foster, who was once United State^ Secretary of State, and her brother, Foster Dulles, is an authority on international relations, and was advisor to the Peace Commission on matters relating W> economics afk'r the war. But her distinction is not con- fined to her relationships. Dr. Dulles has herself made a study of economics and international . relations. . and . has previously tajight various branches of these subjects. At Bryn Mawr she will divide her time lietween the Sociology Department, in which she will give the course on Ljfbor Movements, . and the Economics Department, in which she will give a special elective on Interna- tional Finance. Such a course has never before been given; and is highly recom- mended. The courses offered by the Latin De- CONTINUED ON PAGE 2 G0LDSCHMIDT ON MEDIAEVAL ART Artists of Middle Ages Sac- rificed Realism for Effect. SYMBOLISM WAS USED Arrange Academic Work . to Fit in with May Day "I just want \o say a few words about the academic work from now to the end of May Day," began Dean Manning in chapel, on Monday morning, April 23. "Miss Palachc spoke to me again about asking the faculty to make the work as light as possible at this time. At the beginning of the year, I asked the fac- ulty to increase the work in the first semester, and. at the first part of this one, so it would be lighter now. I real- ize that there is difficulty in some cases these next two weeks, and I will again call the matter to .the attention of the faculty. "There is a great danger in letting things go until after May- Day. L ap- peal to the student body to see to It that when a reprieve is given in a report or reading, the student does not let everything slide for the next two weeks. It is far better to. do a little reading | every day now and to allot your time more carefully, so that every subject re- ceives the same attention. Do not con- sider, an extension as a kindness at this time, as the time from May Day to ex- aminations will be all too short if it is spent making up reports and reading. "Miss Applebee and the committees are to be congratulated on their intelligence in arranging the work. Please co-oper- ate if too much work is put on any one person, so that difficulties with the col- lege will not arise because of. too much time expected by May Day." "The artist of the Middle Ages re- nounced strict adherence' to natural forms," said Dr. Adolph Goldschmidt, speaking^ on The Artistic Character of ICarly Mediaeval Painting in Taylor Hall on Friday evening, April $0. "Dr. Gold- schmidt, who is Professor of History of Art at the University of Berlin, then proceeded to show lantern slides, which illustrated to what extent classical de- signs had been conventionalized under medis, .�; rfrfluence,: Grotesque line formation, perfect sym- metry, and striking symbolism were the characteristics emphasized by the pic- tures of mosaics, -.metal work, and illus- trated manuscripts that were flashed on the screen. When color was used it was al* ays harmonious but decidedly un- natural and inappropriate. A pastoral scene from a copy of Virgil's poems was handled io such a strange fashion dur- ing the Middle Ages that it best re- sembled a carpet pattern. Thus realism was every time sacrificed for the sake of creating an arresting artistic effect. Rather than portray the figure .of a king, royalty was cleverly suggested by a crown design. Two towers in the left-hand corner of a representation of. the Nativity were symbolical of Bethle- henj town. This painting was particu- larly interesting in that it showed how natural connections of parts achieved by tin- Byzantine artists was lost when the West attempted copies of Eastern work. Religious themes were exceedingly popular. Careful employment of curved lines produce an excellent impression of a tossing sea in the Miracle of the Storm; and Christ's peaceful nature was depicted by his cloak which hung over the edge �t the boat, undisturbed by the wind or ocean. Full-length portraits of the evangelists were appended to the head of their Gospels in the illuminated Bibles. Bach saint had his Old Testa- ment prototype: Abraham for St. Mat- thew and David for St. Luke. The church had the palm tree for its symbol. Paradise was conceived as a curiously- jumbled place with only the tree of knowledge and the title Paradysus to identify it. The Mediaeval artist adapted the sys- tem of endeavoring to convey certain ideas by means of symbolic forms. "In the artist of the Middle Ages this feel- ing is strong.'/dcclared Dr. Goldschmidt. "And so we must take Mediaeval art as the idea of Ix-avitiful things supported by lines and interpreted by the artist accord- ing to his own ornamental feeling." Bach Festival at Lehigh on May 11 This Year Tte Bach Festival will take .place Majfcl and 12 �his year in the Packer Memorial Church, Lehigh University, Bethlehem, Pa. It is attracting an enormous and extremely interesting group of people, and is a rare oppor- tunity to hear Bach's church music played under the most choice conditions. Dr. J. Fred Wolle is the conductor, and there will be a choir of three hun- dred, an orchestra, pianos, organs and the Moravian Trombone Choir. . The program is a follows: , � � May II, 4.00 P. M.

On the other hand, sales volumes in the Food Manufacturers business unit increased 5%, and sales volumes in the Gourmet & Specialties business unit grew 4%. Primarily as a result of the Stollwerck acquisition, sales volumes in Consumer Products increased by 259%.
Sales revenues increased by 48% to CHF 1,056.9 million, up from CHF 712.9 million in the prior-year period. In local currencies, sales revenues grew 54%. The increase in sales revenues was faster than volume growth due to the 45% increase in average cocoa bean prices in the quarter under review compared to the 2001/02 period.
Gross profit, defined as sales revenues less
material consumed, increased by 37% to CHF 330.4 million, up from
CHF 241.8 million in the prior-year period. On a per ton basis,
gross profit increased by 15%, which reflects an improved product
mix primarily due to the addition of the higher-margin Stollwerck
products and to the strategic reduction of sales of lower-margin
semi-finished products to third parties. – In line with volume
growth, operating profit (EBIT) increased by 18%
to CHF 79.3 million, up from CHF 67.1 million in the prior-year
period. As a percentage of sales revenues, operating profit
decreased to 7.5% in the quarter under review from 9.4% in the
prior-year period, primarily as a result of the cocoa bean price
increase between the two periods. On a per ton basis, operating
profit (EBIT) declined by 1.0% to CHF 297.3 per ton from CHF 300.2
per ton in the prior-year period due to adverse exchange rate
impact. In local currencies, operating profit (EBIT) per ton went
up by 3% to CHF 309.6. – Higher financial costs were offset by
lower taxes, resulting in a net profit (PAT) of
CHF 48.5 million, up 20% from the CHF 40.4 million in the
prior-year. In local currencies, net profit growth was 26%. –
Equity increased to CHF 735.3 million.
The business of Barry Callebaut is influenced by seasonality.
Revenues are highest in the period between late August and the end
of March as a result of the peak in consumer purchases of chocolate
products in the months leading up to the Christmas and Easter
holidays. The seasonal nature of the business does not allow
multiplying quarterly results in order to arrive at estimates for
the full fiscal year.
Business performance by unit
All business units developed and performed in line with our
strategic priorities. Interim gross profit per business unit was
disclosed for greater transparency.
Grinding capacities were further adjusted to primarily cover
internal needs. Sales to third parties in the Cocoa,
Sourcing & Risk Management business unit were reduced
by another 10% as part of the company's effort to focus on sales
of cocoa products to key customers. Sales volumes amounted to
33,466 tons and sales revenues amounted to CHF 139.1 million
(prior-year period: 37,121 tons and CHF 98.1 million sales
revenues, respectively). The significant increase in sales revenues
was primarily due to higher cocoa bean prices. Gross profit
decreased by 18% to CHF 41.5 million, down from CHF 50.7 million in
the prior-year period. The decrease was due to reduced volumes,
industry-wide declines in processing margins and negative exchange
rate movements.
The Food Manufacturers business unit, which supplies chocolate and compounds to industrial customers, reported a 5% increase in sales volumes to 150,233 tons, up from 142,557 tons for the prior-year period. Sales revenues increased by 10% to CHF 462.7 million (prior-year period: CHF 420.3 million). The increase was largely attributable to increased sales prices resulting from the increase in average cocoa bean prices. Particularly strong sales were generated in Asia-Pacific. Gross profit decreased by 3% to CHF 123.4 million (prior-year period: CHF 126.5 million) due to negative exchange rate movements. However, the decrease was partly offset by volume increases.
The Gourmet & Specialties business unit, whose customers are professional users such as chocolate makers, pastry chefs, hotels and restaurants, reported a 4% increase in sales volumes to 30,505 tons (prior-year period: 29,246 tons) and a 8% increase in sales revenues to CHF 136.7 million, up from CHF 126.5 million in the prior-year period. This increase was largely the result of the business unit's strategy to focus on the high margin segment and to drop low-margin customer label activities as well as on its ability to increase average margins/kg. Gross profit increased by 7% to CHF 45.1 million, up from CHF 42.3 million in the prior-year period, due to volume increases and the higher gross profit margins, offset in part by negative exchange rate movements. As announced on February 17, 2003, Barry Callebaut has signed an agreement with Graverboom B.V. to acquire Dutch-Belgian chocolate company Luijckx Beheer B.V.
In the Consumer Products business unit, sales volumes grew by 259% to 52,559 tons, up from 14,632 tons. The increase was nearly entirely attributable to the Stollwerck acquisition. Sales revenues increased by 368%, from CHF 68.0 million in the prior-year period to CHF 318.4 million, with CHF 250.8 million of such increase attributable to the Stollwerck acquisition. The dual strategy of offering branded products as well as customer label products to the market has paid off: above average market share gains in the rapidly growing hard discount segment in Germany, promising sales growth in the branded products, as well as new contracts with international food retailing chains were recorded. As a result of the Stollwerck acquisition, gross profits increased to CHF 120.4 million, compared to CHF 22.3 million in the prior-year period. As announced on January 30, 2003, it is planned to relocate the Gubor production activities and to close the two production plants in Münstertal and Müllheim, Germany, with the objective to optimize the cost structure on the production side.
Review of regional market development
In Western Europe sales volumes increased by 31% to 183,953 tons or 69% of the Group's sales volume of 266,763 tons for the first quarter 2002/03, largely as a result of the Stollwerck acquisition. Western Europe has strengthened its position as Barry Callebaut's most important market. The factory in Bussum, the Netherlands, was closed as planned at the end of October 2002. Sales volumes in Eastern Europe (4% of the total sales volume) declined by 1% to 9,797 tons.
Sales volumes in the Americas (North and Latin America) were down by 3% as a consequence of lower cocoa sales. The Americas accounted for 21% of total sales volumes, or 55,693 tons.
Volumes in Asia/Pacific went up over-proportionately by 16% as a result of reinforced sales efforts. This region's share of total volumes amounted to 3%, or 8,399 tons.
Volumes in Africa and the Middle East grew by 2%. This region contributed 3% or 8,921 tons to total volumes.
Ivory Coast
After a one-week shutdown of two of Barry Callebaut's three factories in the Ivory Coast, all of Barry Callebaut's Ivory Coast factories are back to working to their full capacity. Barry Callebaut currently believes it will be able to meet all contractual customer obligations that it has entered into.
Anticipating possible effects of the current unstable political situation in the Ivory Coast, the company took precautions to mitigate the impact of these potential risks. These steps include increasing the purchase of cocoa beans from Ghana, Indonesia and Nigeria, installing an additional liquor line in Ghana, accelerating shipments out of the Ivory Coast and building strategic stocks outside of the region, both for finished products and for cocoa beans. Since we are now at the end of the main crop, which starts in October and ends in February, a significant part of the main crop beans harvested in the Ivory Coast have already been shipped to production countries in Europe and in the U.S.
Long-term financing structure
Pursuant to the acquisition of Stollwerck, Barry Callebaut has been analyzing alternatives to improve its long-term capital structure and to lengthen the maturity profile of its debt. In line with these objectives, Barry Callebaut is negotiating a new 5-year senior loan facility with a syndicate of the company's main relationship banks. In parallel, the company intends to undertake a debt financing in the capital markets.
Patrick De Maeseneire, Chief Executive Officer of Barry Callebaut, said: "The outlook for the second quarter 2002/03 is positive. Sales recorded so far for the second quarter seem to point towards a good Easter business."

This type of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) test measures the specific level of HCG in the urine. HCG is a hormone produced in the body during pregnancy.
Other HCG tests include:
Beta-HCG - urine; Human chorionic gonadotropin - urine
To collect a urine sample, you urinate into a special (sterile) cup. Home pregnancy tests require the test strip to be dipped into the urine sample or passed through the urine stream while urinating. Carefully follow package directions.
Usually a first-morning sample (the first time you urinate in the morning) is best. This is because urine is the most concentrated and has enough HCG to be detected.
No special preparation is needed.
The test involves urinating into a cup or onto a test strip.
Urine HCG tests are a common method of determining if a woman is pregnant. The best time to test for pregnancy at home is after you miss your period.
A pregnancy test, including a properly performed home pregnancy test, is considered to be about 98% accurate. Positive results are more likely to be accurate than negative results. When the test is negative but pregnancy is still suspected, the test should be repeated in 1 week.
There are no risks, except for false positive or false negative results.

Lately that seems to be changing. Both here and at Forno Bravo it seems like it is almost daily that a new member comes with questions and then does not like the answers given by more experienced members and begins arguing with them.
I think that is just the age old "popularity" issue, Jeff. The 2 sites you mention are quickly growing in reputation for being "the" source for their respective knowledge base. Most "new members" are looking for a quick fix and when people don't bend over backwards to immediately help them....that opens the door for Peter's "anonymous poster syndrome". They are "surfers" trying to act up with minimal to zero skills/knowledge...easy to spot...jus ignore them man...they all go away fast.
So how do you suggest one differentiates between someone with minimal skills looking for help and the "surfers" or "anonymous posters" you are so quick to dismiss? I think it's important to remember we all started at some point with zero knowledge.
If they are dismissing themselves then why is there still a problem? Clearly something is happening here which is more than simply a barrage of "anonymous posters"
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand that the current requirement for newcomers is to post an introduction declaring (amongst other things) their name. How is NewbieBarniefromAK any different from TXCraig1 in that regard?
I believe that Steve has changed the method he uses to process new members, but my recollection is that members do not always give their real names when they complete their profiles even though those names are not revealed to other members. As a Moderator, I would often see members either not provide any name or a bogus name. People cannot be forced to reveal their real names, for privacy and other legitimate reasons. Even Facebook, which recently reached one million members, and which tries to have members use their real names, has bogus accounts. In one of its recent statutory reports as a public company, Facebook said that over 83 million of its profiles are fake. Peter
I'm not sure anonymity is the main reason for "incivility" on this forum.Correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand that the current requirement for newcomers is to post an introduction declaring (amongst other things) their name. How is NewbieBarniefromAK any different from TXCraig1 in that regard?
It's no different assuming Barnie is the person's real name.To me anyway, enter8 and TXCraig1 are different. Of course, that difference can be mitigated by putting your name in your profile or signing your posts with your name. I'm not talking about you specifically, but in general, I don't know why so many members don't want to share their first name.CL
FWIW it's in my profile and I've stated it several times in posts.
Errr...in what way defensive, Bob? I was just pointing out where my name info was stored at. I didn't perceive Craig's post as an attack. Strange that you seem to feel I did though.

The platelet aggregation test checks to see how well platelets , a part of blood, clump together and cause blood clotting.
A blood sample is needed. For information on how this is done, see: Venipuncture
The laboratory specialist will look at how the platelets spread out in the liquid part of the blood (plasma) and whether they form clumps after a certain chemical or drug is added. When platelets clump together, the blood sample is more clear. A machine measures the changes in cloudiness and prints a record of the results.
Many medications may affect test results. Tell your health care provider about any medications (including over-the-counter drugs) you have taken within 2 weeks before the test.
Medications that may affect test results include:
When the needle is inserted to draw blood, some people feel moderate pain. Others feel only a prick or stinging sensation. Afterward, there may be some throbbing.
Your doctor may order this test if you have signs of a bleeding disorder or low platelet count, or if a member of your family has a known bleeding disorder due to platelet dysfunction.
The test can help diagnose problems with platelet function and determine whether the problem is due to your genes, another disorder, or a side effect of medicine.
See also: Platelet count
The normal time it takes platelets to clump depends on temperature and may vary from laboratory to laboratory.
Note: Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
Decreased platelet aggregation may be due to:
There is very little risk involved with having your blood taken. Veins and arteries vary in size from one patient to another and from one side of the body to the other. Taking blood from some people may be more difficult than from others.
Other risks associated with having blood drawn are slight but may include:
Note: This test is often performed because the patient has a bleeding problem. Bleeding may be more of a risk for this person than for people without bleeding problems.
