Understanding how the food system is shaped by policy, politics and food regulation is a fundamental skill for nutritionists and public health nutritionists. This unit focuses on understanding how policy, politics, and evidence affect how we approach important nutritional issues such as healthy eating, food security and sustainability, obesity and other chronic diseases and how we manage them at a population level. Applied case studies investigating topical food policy, politics and evidence issues are used to illustrate these concepts in action, for example current policy activities to protect food security and sustainability, the latest developments associated with Dietary Guidelines, Food Selection Guides and Nutrient reference Values, as well as food regulation related to food fortification and food labelling.

NATO and the fight against terrorism
- NATO Secretary General condemns terrorist attack in Russia
Detecting suicide attacks – from research to reality
30 Oct. 2013
It is a world first: technology for the remote, real-time detection of explosives was tested live in an underground station in a major European city. The results were conclusive, paving the way for more widespread use of this technology. It marked the completion of the development and test phase of the Stand-off Detection of Explosives programme, known as STANDEX – the result of four years of joint work between experts from NATO and Russia.

The cast of DirecTV's "Full Circle" is full of TV veterans.
Kate Walsh, David Boreanaz, Minka Kelly and Julian McMahon are just a few of the small screen favorites who will star in the new 10-episode drama. This is Walsh's first TV project since "Private Practice" ended in early 2013 and "Bones" fans shouldn't worry: Boreanaz will return for the Fox procedural's Season 9.
The series from Neil LaBute aims to examine "the human condition and relationships through a series of conversations between 11 people," whose lives are intertwined, unbeknownst to them. Each episode takes place in a restaurant and is a conversation between two characters. One of the character's storylines then will carry over into the next episode through a conversation with a new character.
The "Full Circle" cast also includes "Harry Potter's" Tom Felton, Keke Palmer, Devon Gerhart, Billy Campbell, Noah Silver, Ally Sheedy, Cheyenne Jackson, and Robin Weigert.
Check out DirecTV's in-depth description of "Full Circle" and get to know the cast:
Characters passing the torch from one episode to the next include Tim (Felton) an exchange student from England and his love interest Bridgette (Kelly); Bridgette's husband Stanley (McMahon), a charismatic and intense entertainment lawyer; Stanley's client Jace (Boreanaz), a famous comic known for his outlandish behavior; Chan'dra (Palmer), whose life was irrevocably altered as a result of a joke that Jace took too far; Cliff (Gearhart), a classmate Chan'dra secretly has a crush on; Cliff's father Trent (Campbell) and his wife Trisha (Walsh); Peter (Jackson), an aspiring singer who intrudes on a special night between Trent and Trisha; Robbie (Silver), Trisha's student who purports an unusual connection to his teacher, and his mother Celeste (Sheedy), with whom he shares an unnerving bond. The final episode brings the characters together, with the unexpected addition of one (Weigert), for an explosive ending that is sure to change all of these characters lives irreparably.
"Full Circle" is scheduled to premiere on DirecTV's Audience in fall 2013.
"666 Park Avenue"
"666 Park Ave.," ABC Status: Canceled Why: ABC pulled the plug on this supernatural drama earlier in the season.
"The Bachelor"
"The Bachelor," ABC Status: Renewed Why: While ratings may have dropped, "The Bachelor" will likely see another season on ABC as tabloids and viewers still care about the comings and goings of contestants.
"Body of Proof"
"Body of Proof," ABC Status: Canceled Why: ABC is keen on this Dana Delany drama, but the ratings for the show's third season couldn't save it.
"Castle," ABC Status: Renewed Why: Strong ratings and a dedicated viewership keep "Castle" on the schedule.
"Dancing With the Stars"
"Dancing With the Stars," ABC Status: Likely to be renewed Why: The series is hurting in the ratings ... by "DWTS" standards. It's still a strong player for ABC, but the new season hasn't premiered yet.
"Don't Trust The B---- In Apt. 23"
"Don't Trust The B---- In Apt. 23," ABC Status: Canceled Why: ABC pulled the low-rated comedy from it schedule and the stars took to Twitter to announce the cancellation.
"Family Tools"
"Family Tools," ABC Status: Canceled Why: This ABC comedy had a May 1 premiere date and that was the first of many bad signs.
"Grey's Anatomy"
"Grey's Anatomy," ABC Status: Renewed Why: America still loves McDreamy and the goings on at <s>Seattle Grace</s> Grey Sloan Memorial.
"Happy Endings"
"Happy Endings," ABC Status: Canceled Why: Always the bubble show, never the surefire renewal hit. "Happy Endings" has suffered from many ratings ailments, including bad scheduling (it moved to Friday night) and lack of promo. But this ahmahzing show has some serious fans that are determined to keep it around on another network (a la "Cougar Town.")
"How To Live With Your Parents (For The Rest Of Your Life)"
"How To Live With Your Parents (For The Rest Of Your Life)," ABC Status: Canceled Why: The ABC comedy starring Sarah Chalke had a late midseason debut and though its ratings were decent, it still couldn't save the comedy.
"Last Man Standing"
"Last Man Standing," ABC Status: Renewed Why: Viewers still love Tim Allen and the show has been performing well on Friday nights.
"Last Resort"
"Last Resort," ABC Status: Canceled Why: ABC killed the Shawn Ryan drama in late 2012.
"Malibu Country"
"Malibu Country," ABC Status: Canceled Why: "Malibu Country" had been performing well on Friday nights, but the ratings took a dip and there was also showrunner switches that are never a good.
"The Middle"
"The Middle," ABC Status: Renewed Why: Now in its fourth season, "The Middle" is still pulling in more than 8 million viewers an episode as the anchor of ABC's Wednesday comedies.
"Mistresses," ABC Status: Too soon to tell Why: The drama, which is based on the UK series of the same name, just got a Monday, May 27 premiere date. Though the scheduling struggle doesn't bode well, the ABC drama does have Alyssa Milano and "Lost" alum Yunjin Kim leading the foursome.
"Modern Family"
"Modern Family," ABC Status: Renewed Why: A fan favorite and Emmy darling, "Modern Family" will be back and will make ABC lots of money in syndication.
"Nashville," ABC Status: Renewed Why: Critical acclaim doesn't always equate to rating success, but ABC still believes in this Connie Britton-fronted drama despite the numbers.
"The Neighbors"
"The Neighbors," ABC Status: Renewed Why: One of the few "hits" of the season, "The Neighbors" has found an audience and kept it pretty steadily week after week (much to our dismay).

"Red Widow"
"Red Widow," ABC Status: Canceled Why: The show had a late February debut on ABC and the ratings were abysmal.
"Revenge," ABC Status: Renewed Why: "Revenge" has fallen out of critical favor and seen lower ratings in its new Sunday night home. Though it lost its creator Mike Kelley as the showrunner, it will return for a third season, considering the sad state of ABC's dramas.
"Rookie Blue"
"Rookie Blue," ABC Status: Renewed Why: The Canadian co-production will return for a fourth season on ABC during the summer of 2013.
"Scandal," ABC Status: Renewed Why: Shonda Rhimes has another hit on her hands. Now in its second season, "Scandal" has benefited from word-of-mouth and has been rising in the ratings (even recently beating out its lead in "Grey's Anatomy"). A likable star -- Kerry Washington -- and continued buzz keep "Scandal" on the schedule.
"Suburgatory," ABC Status: Renewed Why: The series started Season 2 off strong in the ratings, but its audience has slowly eroded. Still, the show will be back for a third season.
"Zero Hour"
"Zero Hour," ABC Status: Canceled Why: The Anthony Edwards vehicle debuted to 6.3 million viewers with a 1.3 rating in the key 18-49 demographic, making it the least-watched premiere for a scripted series in ABC's history. Things only got worse from there.
"2 Broke Girls"
"2 Broke Girls," CBS Status: Renewed Why: CBS renewed "2 Broke Girls" in March of 2013.
"The Amazing Race"
"The Amazing Race," CBS Status: Renewed Why: As an Emmy and fan favorite, "The Amazing Race" has been a strong player for CBS.
"The Big Bang Theory"
"The Big Bang Theory," CBS Status: Renewed Why: Now in its sixth season, "Big Bang" is reaching series-high ratings. Even up against reality powerhouse "American Idol," "The Big Bang Theory" has been delivering with crazy high numbers in the 18-49 demographic, beating out what was once Fox's juggernaut.
"Blue Bloods"
"Blue Bloods," CBS Status: Renewed Why: The Tom Selleck-fronted police drama is a strong ratings performer for CBS on Fridays.
"Criminal Minds"
"Criminal Minds," CBS Status: Renewed Why: As one of CBS's strong procedural players, the series has been steady in the ratings and will likely be renewed to help anchor a night and launch a new drama.
"CSI," CBS Status: Renewed Why: Of the two "CSI" shows on the air, "CSI" is the stronger player in the TV landscape. The show is nowhere near its earlier ratings, but Ted Danson signed on for more and the show will be back.
"CSI: NY," CBS Status: Canceled Why: The ratings from this "CSI" spinoff have faded over the years.
"Elementary," CBS Status: Renewed Why: One of the very few freshman series hits during the 2012-2013 TV season, CBS is very keen on this modern-day take on Sherlock Holmes. The audience has been steady and the network even gave it the post-Super Bowl timeslot.
"Golden Boy"
"Golden Boy," CBS Status: Canceled Why: CBS certainly has a handsome star at the front of this cop drama, but its late season entry hinted toward CBS's confidence in the show.
"The Good Wife"
"The Good Wife," CBS Status: Renewed Why: A former ratings champ, "The Good Wife" has slipped to series low ratings on Sunday nights. Blame football overrun, fan-detested storylines or too many guest stars, but "The Good Wife" has star power and critical praise, plus its nearing a good syndication sweet spot.
"Hawaii Five-0"
"Hawaii Five-0," CBS Status: Renewed Why: In March, CBS announced "Hawaii Five-0" received an early renewal along with several of its other popular programs.
"How I Met Your Mother"
"How I Met Your Mother," CBS Status: Renewed Why: CBS handed out a ninth and final season to this comedy with the entire cast returning. Expect to meet the mother, finally.
"Made In Jersey"
"Made In Jersey," CBS Status: Canceled Why: CBS pulled the plug on this legal drama very early on in the season because of low ratings.
"The Mentalist"
"The Mentalist," CBS Status: Renewed Why: "The Mentalist" has fallen to mediocre ratings -- by CBS standards -- but it was nonetheless renewed in March of 2013.
"Mike & Molly"
"Mike & Molly," CBS Status: Renewed Why: The ratings are down a little bit from last year, but Melissa McCarthy's star continues to rise.
"NCIS," CBS Status: Renewed Why: CBS reached a deal with series star Mark Harmon in early 2013, keeping the No. 1 show in America around for a Season 11.
"NCIS: LA," CBS Status: Renewed Why: Viewers love their "NCIS," in any form. The ratings have been strong and the network is producing a backdoor spinoff pilot for this spinoff show. A full night of "NCIS" could be in CBS's future.
"Partners," CBS Status: Canceled Why: Low ratings and unfavorable reviews led to the early demise of this CBS comedy.
"Person of Interest"
"Person of Interest," CBS Status: Renewed Why: The series has developed a nice-sized audience, bigger than its first season.
"Rules of Engagement"
"Rules of Engagement," CBS Status: Canceled Why: This comedy has been on the bubble since it premiered ... yet it made it to Season 7. It's finally time to say goodbye.
"Survivor," CBS Status: Renewed Why: A strong player for the last 13 years, "Survivor" will be back. But due to its most recent premiere ratings, we might not see it during the fall season, though a midseason or summer return -- with some new gimmick -- is definitely in the cards for the reality series.
"Two and a Half Men"
"Two and a Half Men," CBS Status: Renewed Why: CBS always wanted another season of this bawdy hit, it was just a matter of getting its stars to sign back on. Though Jon Cryer and Ashton Kutcher will be back for a Season 11, the "half" man Angus T. Jones remains up in the air.
"Undercover Boss"
"Undercover Boss," CBS Status: Renewed Why: The show is enjoying life in syndication and its Season 4 numbers are better than most of its third season.
"Unforgettable," CBS Status: Uncanceled Why: CBS canceled the Poppy Montgomery drama last season ... and then revived it! Season 2 premieres Sunday, July 28.
"Vegas," CBS Status: Canceled Why: Despite star power, the series wasn't a breakout hit in the ratings. CBS previously canceled "Unforgettable" (then uncanceled it) last season when it was doing about the same as "Vegas."

These babies are oh, so adorable! They are cousins to our Walnut Babies and measure about 1 inch long (more or less). The babies are made from wool with a bit of pipe-cleaner, a wood bead head and an acorn cap.
Each Orange and Black pair comes in a felt sac . The sac is hand sewn together from wool felt. When you order Pixies in a Sac, you will receive two pixie babies (one orange, one black) and one sac that they love to share. These would be lovely in a Harvest decoration. Handmade in the USA.
These babies are meant for Very Gentle handling by older children. Not recommended for children 3 and under due to small parts. Meant for decoration.

Projection of General government net lending/borrowing for Russia (GGNLBPRUA188N)
2018: -1.533 Percent of GDP Last 5 Observations
Annual, Not Seasonally Adjusted, Updated: 2013-12-10 1:36 PM CST
Source: | International Monetary Fund |
Release: | World Economic Outlook |
This is a projection of the series General government net lending/borrowing for Russia (http://research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/series/GGNLBARUA188N). Net lending (+)/ borrowing (-) is calculated as revenue minus total expenditure. This is a core Government Finance Statistics (GFS) balance that measures the extent to which general government is either putting financial resources at the disposal of other sectors in the economy and nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial resources generated by other sectors and nonresidents (net borrowing). This balance may be viewed as an indicator of the financial impact of general government activity on the rest of the economy and nonresidents (Government Finance Statistics Manual 2001 (GFSM 2001), paragraph 4.17). Note: Net lending (+)/borrowing (-) is also equal to net acquisition of financial assets minus net incurrence of liabilities. |

Online school counseling degrees are meant for students who want to work as counselors within educational settings, such as primary or secondary schools. Students in these programs may already have some classroom teaching experience, and will dive deeper into both education and psychology in their studies.
Coursework in online school counseling degree programs will vary depending upon whether a student earns a degree based in education, science, or counseling. In general, students can expect coursework in research and statistics, child and adolescent psychology, behavioral assessments, curriculum development, counseling techniques, conflict resolution, and career counseling.
School counselors play an important role within the educational system. They can help teachers and administrators correct students' behavioral issues by meeting with students and parents and understanding the root of issues, when applicable. They can serve as intermediaries in conflict resolutions between multiple students, students and teachers, or students and parents. They can also advise students on which courses to take to meet graduation requirements or future career goals, and advise them on which colleges they may want to consider.
It is important for students to note that requirements for becoming a school counselor vary by state. Many states require at least a year or two of classroom teaching experience prior to pursuing counseling certification. Many states also require fieldwork in schools in order to earn certification. Because state requirements vary, students may want to ensure that either their school offers certification valid in their state, or that they can pursue an alternative certification program within their state in addition to their degree.

1963 - A first for the Beatles, Bond and Brass
Friday, 15 March 2013
1963 saw the first Beatles album, the first James Bond film, the first Dr Who episode and the first appearance of Hampshire County Youth Band (HCYB). To celebrate its 50th anniversary, band members, old and new, will perform at the Anvil in Basingstoke on Saturday, 13 April. The musical programme includes a specially commissioned piece by acclaimed, Winchester-based composer, Kenneth Downie.
HYCB's founder John Knight, now 90 years old, will be conducting part of Saturday's concert. John is one of only four directors in the Band's 50-year history. Current HCYB director, Jock McKenzie, puts the enduring success of the Band down to the wealth of young musical talent in Hampshire and sheer hard work and said:
"Every member of the Hampshire County Youth Band, both now and over the past 50 years, has shown incredible commitment to practising and performing, week in week out. My thanks and admiration go to every one of them and to their parents for supporting them every step of the way."
Councillor Roy Perry, Executive Member for Children's Services at Hampshire County Council, said:
"This concert is an incredible celebration of the lasting success of Hampshire County Youth Band and bodes well for the ensemble's future. The Band is one of more than 70 ensembles, choirs and orchestras that are supported by Hampshire County Council's Music Service. They give young musicians the opportunity to perform regularly at venues across the county, giving great enjoyment to all those who come to hear them."
Many ex-members of HCYB have gone on to enjoy successful musical careers as performers in professional orchestras and ensembles as well as the Royal Marine Band Service. Others have followed successful paths as composers. For many more ex-members, their years spent in HCYB have paved the way for a life-long hobby playing in bands and ensembles.
As part of the 50th anniversary weekend's celebrations Mnozil Brass, one of the world's top brass groups, is performing at the Anvil on Sunday, 14 April. Their performance is already sold out.
For tickets to the 50th Anniversary concert please visit Anvil Arts.

The first real help for Stroke survivors. STRECH FOR LIFE.COM has helped 63 stroke people in the last 4 years, regain feeling, and function to their lives. This help is no medicine help for anyone with nerve damage.
In the last 50 years, there has been very little help for stroke, or nerve damage. Stech for life was designed to help all of these regain feeling, and function, getting this info out will change rehab in Healthcare. MS, Parkinson, Dystonia, Nerve Damage, Neuropathy, have all been helped with no medicine. 500 people have been helped to move forward. Don't give up hope. Thanks.

I'm a consultant and an entrapreneur. As a consultant my main job is helping companies set up their web and ecommerce strategies. As an entrapreneur, I'm building my own web sites. For both activities, building and testing my programming skills on StackOverflow is both fun and useful.
My development background is mainly in C#, MS SQL Server and web-related technologies (HTML, javascript), but I've done some work in scala and am trying to teach myself Haskell and Go.
