The skin is the body's largest organ, covering the entire body. In addition to serving as a protective shield against heat, light, injury, and infection, the skin also:
Throughout the body, the skin's characteristics vary (for example, thickness, color, and texture). For instance, the head contains more hair follicles than anywhere else, while the soles of the feet contain none. In addition, the soles of the feet and the palms of the hands are much thicker than skin on other areas of the body.
The skin is made up of the following layers, with each layer performing specific functions:
The dermis is the middle layer of the skin. The dermis contains the following:
The dermis is held together by a protein called collagen, which is made by fibroblasts. This layer gives skin flexibility and strength. It also contains pain and touch receptors.

Vieuxtemps: Violin Concertos No 1 & 2
Studio Master FLAC & ALAC downloads availableCDA67878
Movement 1: Allegro moderato
Movement 2: Introduction: Adagio
Movement 3: Rondo: Allegretto
Its length is due principally to the unusually grand first movement, a huge structure lasting nearly twenty-five minutes. This begins with an orchestral exposition on a much larger scale than that of the F sharp minor concerto, presenting a veritable parade of ideas for later treatment. After the suavely melodic first theme has been quietly stated, the horns and trumpets, foreshadowing a martial character that will be manifest throughout the movement, introduce a tutti restatement of this idea, after which the woodwind etch a contrasting lyrical theme. Vieuxtemps's handling of the orchestra throughout this concerto shows great skill. Further discussion of the opening theme (which reappears fortissimo and marked nobile, in sharp contrast to its initial appearance) and a quiet rhythmic closing figure bring the orchestral exposition to a close. As in the F sharp minor concerto, the soloist's first entry is bold, high in the violin's register, and decisively introduces new thematic content. The first three notes of this theme—a rising E–F#–G#, emphatically sculpting the beginning of the major scale—become an important motif in their own right. After stating another melody of its own, dolce, the violin sweetly takes over the first theme and soon makes it the basis for bravura elaboration.
All this activity is only the beginning of a very broad, generalized sonata design, full of incident and stirring orchestration as well as a hair-raising succession of pyrotechnic displays from the soloist, including multiple-stopping, octaves, simultaneously played contrapuntal lines, and rapid, florid figuration spanning the instrument's entire range. Towards the middle of the movement, after an orchestral tutti with a long wind-down on the rhythmic motif, the violin introduces a fresh and passionate idea, Maestoso, with more than a whiff of Eastern European gypsy music. This is spun out over the rhythmic motif, which becomes an ostinato in the orchestral bass until taken over by the violin for an exciting development.
A short cadenza-like passage brings back the work's opening subject in dreamy, meditative vein, and this can be regarded as the start of a much-varied recapitulation, culminating in a dramatic orchestral tutti which proves to be the introduction to the cadenza. Unlike the F sharp minor concerto, Vieuxtemps furnishes the E major with a substantial, fully notated cadenza—beginning with the E–F#–G# figure from the soloist's first entry—that draws all the thematic threads together. A brief but brilliant coda brings the movement to a close.
In contrast to this huge movement, the A major Adagio is brief; in fact it is merely the introduction to the finale. It begins with seraphic strings (the passage might almost be by Grieg). The violin, dolce, embellishes a simple, sweetly sentimental melody, then gives it the full technicolour treatment of passionate octaves against rustling string tremolandi which lead straight into the rondo finale. Dotted rhythms in the orchestra introduce (and characterize) the carefree cavatina-like main theme, with which Vieuxtemps is able to have plenty of fun, also introducing a parade of colourful episodes, including a breezy march in B major. The violin is kept almost continually busy, until an orchestral tutti and an expectant pause herald the reappearance of the expressive tune from the Adagio, presented with a light pizzicato accompaniment. This moment of pleasurable nostalgia is developed into an important episode before the rondo music returns, taking on the character of a scintillating perpetuum mobile as it drives the concerto to its conclusion.

Bi-Partisan Letter to Obama: No Military Solution in Afghanistan, Bring Troops Home
Washington, D.C. – Congresswoman Barbara Lee (D-CA) and Congressman Walter Jones (R-NC) were joined by over 90 Members of the House of Representatives in sending a bipartisan letter to President Obama, calling for an accelerated end to the war in Afghanistan.
"Our responsibility to our men and women in uniform in Afghanistan is as important as ever," said Lee. "As Pentagon military advisors prepare to present President Obama with a set of recommendations for U.S. military presence in Afghanistan, we owe it to our troops to earnestly deliberate our defense policies.
"Now that the President has accomplished every goal that was originally set in Afghanistan and it is widely accepted that there is no military solution in the country, it is time to bring home our brave men and women in uniform and transition to full Afghan control. After 10 years and $600 billion invested in an unstable country, it is past time to end this war. This war has taken the lives of more than 2,000 members of the armed services and wounded another 18,000. Our troops have done everything we have asked of them, but they cannot be tasked with building up a modern nation state. It is time to bring our troops and tax dollars home.
"We have an opportunity to ensure that our brave troops are brought home in a swift and responsible manner so that we can create jobs and engage in nation-building here at home. The overwhelming majority of Americans, both Republicans and Democrats, believe it is time to bring a responsible end to the war in Afghanistan."
December 5, 2012
The Honorable Barack Obama, President of the United States,The White House,1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW,Washington, DC 20500
Dear President Obama:
Your military advisors will soon be providing you with a set of military options in Afghanistan. We are writing to urge you to pursue a strategy in Afghanistan that best serves the interests of the American people and our brave troops on the ground. That strategy is simple: an accelerated withdrawal to bring to an end the decade-long war as soon as can safely and responsibly be accomplished.
After 10 years and almost $600 billion spent, over 2,000 American lives lost, and 18,000 wounded - it is time to accelerate the transition to full Afghan control. While NATO and Afghan National Security Forces have made considerable strides, no military strategy exists and morale has been undermined by the proliferation of "Green on Blue" attacks. Sixty coalition soldiers have been killed this year alone by their Afghan allies. To quote a former Commandant of the Marine Corps, "When our friends turn out to be our enemy, it is time to pull the plug."
This is one issue that overwhelmingly unifies Americans: the desire to bring the war in Afghanistan to an accelerated close. Polls show over two-thirds of Americans, on a bipartisan basis, believe it is past time to end our combat role and bring the troops home.
We write to request that you respond to the consensus amongst military experts, diplomats, and the American people. It is time to announce an accelerated transition of security responsibility to the Afghan government and to bring our troops home as soon as can be safely and responsibly accomplished.
Al Qaeda's presence has been greatly diminished and Osama bin Laden is no longer a threat to the United States. There can be no military solution in Afghanistan. It is past time for the United States to allow the Afghanistan government to assume responsibility for its own security.
While many of us would prefer an immediate withdrawal from Afghanistan starting today, there is broad recognition that the primary objectives have been completed. We also would like to remind you that any long term security agreement committing U.S. troops to the defense of Afghanistan must have congressional approval to be binding. In addition, we would like to request a meeting to discuss these issues directly with you and your staff.
We look forward to working with you.
Sincerely, Members of Congress

I have all of the puzzles in this collection. But, now Hanayama have done some re-evaluation of the difficulty of their puzzles, some of these are no longer level 6 (10 on this site). My favourite is Quartet; I also like Nutcase and Enigma very much. I have always been wondering what Cast Chain is doing among level 6 (10 on this site) puzzles, even after the re-evaluation. It is indeed an interesting puzzle, but there are others more complicated than it and they are lower level. Cast News was the most fun and logical, Elk is an extraordinary puzzle (though its look does not show it), and Square is very beautiful in design and movements, but has no firm solution (it can be solved by chance just while playing with it). A nice collection overall, I would recommend it to puzzle lovers.

Biographical Sketch - Lydia Villa-Komaroff, 2000
Lydia Villa-Komaroff, Vice President for Research at Northwestern University, gave the 7th Annual E.E. Just Lecture at the 40th ASCB Annual Meeting in December 2000.Villa-Komaroff, a neurobiologist, also currently serves on the ASCB Council. Her scientific contributions include early work on the proinsulin gene and its process, "now considered classic" according to National Institute of Neurological Disorders & Stroke Director Gerald Fischbach.
Villa-Komaroff began her undergraduate career at the University of Washington in Seattle, transferring in her sophomore year to Goucher College in Maryland. The change was inspired by her then-boyfriend, now husband, Anthony Komaroff, who had accepted a job with the Public Health Service in Bethesda. The two were married when Lydia graduated from college. Villa-Komaroff feels fortunate to have happened upon this small women's college because "it had very good chemistry and biology departments and had connections with the NIH, enabling me to get summer jobs there." Loretta Leive, the NIH microbiologist who took her on, "browbeat me into applying to MIT for graduate school." Villa-Komaroff wanted to go to Boston because Tony took a residency at Beth Israel, but she had not intended to apply to MIT. Ironically, it was the only school that accepted her. Link to more detailed Villa-Komaroff biography.

CHICAGO (AP) -- For Jeff Samardzija, the only positive of the Chicago Cubs' 13-2 loss to the Los Angeles Angels Wednesday night was it only counted as one loss.
"You can't really sugar coat it too much," Samardzija said.
Samardzija (5-9) allowed nine hits and a career-high-tying nine runs in 4 2-3 innings. He surrendered four home runs.
"To sit here and try to pick it apart would be tough," he said. "I've just got to go back and look at it. I've thrown worse games, that's the thing. I've had worse stuff out there. To sit and be totally down isn't the case. It's more about pitch sequences and, obviously, getting ahead in the count. I think that's the big thing for me. When I'm behind in the count, it changes the game a lot. It puts me on my heels. It puts them on their toes, and that's not the way I pitch."
That's certainly not the way the Cubs had been pitching in winning the previous four games.
"That game got out of hand," manager Dale Sveum said. "Give credit to some really good hitters. They get paid a lot of money to hit mistakes and they obviously didn't miss 'em tonight."
Josh Hamilton hit two home runs, Albert Pujols connected and the Angels went deep a season-high five times. All five of the homers -- Mark Trumbo and Brendan Harris also went deep -- were no-doubters. They hit a pair in a five-run first inning and then followed with three more in a six-run fifth as they sent 12 men to the plate to provide more than enough support for starter C.J. Wilson (9-6).
The Angels (44-46) now have won 11 of 14 games in their quest to get back to the .500 mark after a poor start during which they fell as many as 12 games (15-27) under. Since June 12, they have the best record in baseball at 17-8.
It was Hamilton's first multi-homer game with the Angels (the ninth of his career) and he added five RBIs. His numbers (14 homers, 39 RBIs .229 average) still aren't close to what is expected from him approaching the All-Star break, but they are improving.
"I'm sort of just getting back to doing what you do and quit worrying about listening to everybody," he said. "Listen to the guys here I really care about, the coaches and the players, and go from there."
The same could be said of the Angels' entire lineup, which has been mostly responsible for the team's turnaround.
"Offense is kind of a streaky thing sometimes," said Wilson, who allowed one run in seven innings to win for the fifth time in six starts. "You have instances where you score 13 runs, which is kind of a fluke no matter how good your offense is. I feel like our offense is capable of scoring six runs a night. That's a good benchmark because of all the guys that have power throughout the lineup.
"We have a lot of guys that, I think, are on the way back up to their level of play after slow starts. That's the key. We just need to get everyone playing just the way they can play. It's not like they have to go out there and hit a grand slam every game or something like that."
The Angels wasted little time in getting to Samardzija. Erick Aybar and Mike Trout started the game with doubles and Pujols drew the first of his three walks.
Hamilton followed with a drive over the right-field wall for a three-run shot, his 13th of the season. A batter later, Trumbo connected on a hanging slider and hit it into the left-field bleachers to cap a five-run first inning.
Leading 5-1, the Angels broke it open in the fifth as Pujols and Harris hit two-run shots and Hamilton added a solo homer. Pujols and Hamilton went deep in back-to-back at-bats.
It was a big night for the entire lineup, but the focus was rightly on Hamilton because of his early struggles.
"You make a big adjustment when you switch teams," said Wilson, who also was a teammate of Hamilton's with the Texas Rangers. "You're living in a new place, you're going to the ballpark on a different route and all that stuff. I went through that last year, but the advantage I had was being from California.
"Josh wants to do well. He's knows what he's here to do. He's knows he's here to hit and play great defense, and if he doesn't do well, he's upset.
"He's having more fun and that's sort of contagious in itself."

Post subject: B10 Boom Kitbashes
I know the staff at ADB thought I was nuts this past week when, along with a bunch of other stuff, I ordered 3 B10 booms. I am a little nuts, but I think it was worth it.
The pictures included here are all of the ships after the base coat has been applied. Most of them will be painted in my non-standard colors as seen in the Klingon Painting Examples thread.
One of the booms will just be a boom, suitable for the historical scenario where it leads a defense fleet or any number of other possible scenarios where a severed boom is running for home.
The second was used with a badly mangled C8 rear hull that I picked up at a yard sale years ago. The C8 boom is already in use as an escape pod, but after much work, the rear hull is in fair enough shape to be joined to a B10 boom to create the B8 combined dreadnought.
I haven't seen any names listed for this unbuilt type, so here are pictures of the IKV Incorrigible.
A note to anyone wishing to do this kitbash - Cutting out the space in the C8 hull where the boom's engine section goes is the worst part! I got pretty far into it before I started breaking off bits of putty and stuff that was filling cracks and standing in for chipped and missing metal, so I ended up filing off the bottom of the boom's round engine (or whatever that connector part is called) until the boom fit onto the C8 rear. Another thing to keep in mind is that that connecting section is longer than the distance between the leading edge and the rear hanger bay housing. I had a gap between the rear of the boom and the front of the rear hull about 1.5 times the thickness of a dime. I filled that with bits of styrene and puttied over the gap with forgivable results. I might go back and build a sort of collar to make the work look more deliberate. Someone else might want to try trimming a couple of rings from the connecting part in order to make the ship fit together more nicely.
The third boom became the B10T as I also ordered a Klingon tug. I made the mistake of NOT ordering a metal stand, which this wee beastie will require. Also, I still need to drill a new hole for a stand as neither the one that worked for the tug nor the one in the boom is even close to what this will need.
Anyway, here is IKV Invulnerable.
I'll post pics in the painting examples thread once I get these all "purdied" up.
I also had another B10 part that I needed to finish my model of a B11S (which is shown at the front of the next pic). Thanks to the staff at ADB for helping me out with that! I have all of my B10/Variants in this picture, called the Happy B10 Family.

Thanks, guys!
Scoutdad, I'd love to see the pics when you get done
Also, how did you handle the "gap" on the B8? Since the ship was never "officially built" there is little chance of there being an official way of building this ship. I'd love to see how you handled the problem of the hulls not exactly fitting together.

Poetic license.
Since the underside is rarely seen, I concentrated on makign the top surface line up, then added an epoxy-putty pod under neath the C* rear hull to tie into the B10 boom.

Good gravy, that B8 really emphasizes the size of the boom! Even the R9 picture of the B10T (similar to your third picture of it) didn't make it look that impressive. Wonderful work.

Report of the London Trades Council Youth Advisory Council, to the Youth Conference, to be held at Denison House, 296, Vauxhall Bridge Road, Westminster, S.W.1, on Sunday, 2nd October, 1938. First Session: 11 a.m. to 1.30 p.m. Second Session: 2.30 p.m. to 6.30 p.m. Chairman, First Session: Mr. E. Friend, J.P. (Chairman, London Trades Council); Chairman, Second Session: Mr. Robert Willis (Secretary, London Trades Council). Past Activities. 1. Introduction. - At our conference of August, 1937, the report of the Council indicated the general objects for which the Youth Advisory Council had come into existence. These were briefly stated as the recruitment and organisation of the thousands of youth at present outside the ranks of the trades union movement, the initiation of campaigns to improve the working conditions of youth in industry, the provision of educational and sports facilities for the youth of the trades union movement, and in order to achieve these objects, recommended the formation of special youth committees in the unions, and attached to trades councils. The events during the past year more than confirm the correctness of our proposals. The movement of the young engineering apprentices for improved working conditions, the significant demonstrations of railway vanboys and youth in other industries, gave expression to the demands of this generation of youth for better working conditions. 2. Organisation. - In August, 1937, we had only two union and two local youth committees; to-day we have eight union youth councils in the engineering, furnishing, upholstering, printing, poster-writing industries, in commerce and insurance, and ten local youth advisory committees. These youth councils and committees have been extremely active in youth recruitment and organisation, and in addition have been responsible for organising educational and sports facilities for the young members of the trades unions, and have received the well-merited praise of their respective unions. We take pride in the fact that our Council has been the pioneer in this form of " New Trades Unionism." 3. Youth Charter Campaign. - We can claim a large amount of credit for the Youth Charter Campaign of the T.U. Congress, and the proposals we made, when we met Sir Walter Citrine, for the organisation of regional conferences in various parts of the country, together with the direct help and assistance of our Council, which has been given to trades councils and unions, has been largely responsible for the formation of youth councils in many towns in Great Britain. The General Council of the Trades Union Congress are to be congratulated upon initiating the Youth Charter Campaign. 4. Entry of Juveniles into Industry. - The first investigation conducted by the Council was in connection with the problems of the "entry of juveniles into industry." Several important conclusions were drawn from the investigation, which can be summarised as follows: (1) Insufficient attention has been paid by the trades union movement to the problem of the entry of juveniles into industry and the function of the Juvenile Advisory Committees. The formation of local youth advisory committees would help to remedy this situation. (2) The Juvenile Advisory Committees should have statutory recognition, with a higher percentage of trade union representation. On the question of transference, the problem required a special investigation itself, and the opinions of trades councils in the " depressed areas " would have to be obtained before any conclusions could be drawn. 5. Industrial Survey. - By the initiation of the Industrial and Commercial Survey of Greater London, we laid the basis for a new approach to the problems of union recruitment and organisation, particularly in relation to young workers. The tremendous amount of work which has gone into the organisation of our 20 local survey commissions has not been wasted, and valuable experience has been gained in conducting planned investigations. The task confronting the Survey Commission has been so enormous that it has been found necessary to reorganise it, and a summary of these proposals will be found in another section of this report. 6. May Day Demonstration. - The demonstration was one of the most successful of recent years, and we took the initiative in calling together the political, co-operative, sports and trades union organisations of the youth in a Joint Youth May Day Committee. The youth contingents were the largest and most colourful ever seen, and the march past of the youth was an impressive sight, indicative of the spirit and determination of the youth for the achievement of the Youth Charter, and the preservation of Peace and Democracy. 7. Propaganda and Recruitment. - Our propaganda has carried the message of trades unionism into factories, shops and offices. We have been responsible for the organisation of many meetings of the youth in various unions and localities, and our movement has distributed thousands of Youth Charter leaflets. We would particularly make mention of the creation of the trades union youth journal, Youth at Work, which started as a duplicated bulletin of one youth council, and is now printed and circulated on a national scale. Starting without any capital, its circulation is steadily creeping up, and its influence is growing every day.

text: Gareth Pugh came saw and conquered Paris Saturday night; with a debut show where armour plated super heroines trod the boards in the City of Light's hippest contemporary art museum. Unveiled across from the Eiffel Tower, the completely black and white collection of zippered, articulated and sculptural clothes - think Kurosawa remakes King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table - won a huge burst of applause. 'J'adorait. Tres original,' shivered French Vogue editor in chief Carine Roitfeld, as she exited the roof top show space. The Palais de Tokyo was packed with a phalanx of international fashion editors and local Parisian hipsters to witness the Continental coming-out of Sunderland-born Pugh, who financed his jaunt to France out of the 150,000 Euro endowment he got for winning the Andam Award, fashion's richest prize. 'I always knew if I won the prize, it was Paris here we come,' Pugh told Grazia, post show, as his "mentor" Rick Owens strolled backstage to embrace the Englishman in Paris. Not that Gareth turned into Flash Harry: his set was lit by a series of skinny florescent bulbs, and he kept the same team that has served him so well in London, including DJ Matthew Stone, who brilliantly mixed industrial chords, Silence of the Lambs soundtrack and Portishead on a heady soundtrack.' Loved it! It was so theatrical,' yelped Roisin Murphy, who sat front row with Solange Knowles. Pugh wowed from his opening looks, Amazonian blondes in leggings and tunics with one-meter wide Elizabethan collars; Space Age jumpsuits made of rubberize scales; sequined frock coats for an intergalactic royal court party. Post show, Gareth celebrated his success with rockin' bash in Café Moune, a former lesbian hang-out that is Paris's official after hours club of the moment. As Sapphic lasses, BoomBox regulars, Pigalle poseurs and fashion freaks all grooved to Stone's retro dance mix, Pugh hunkered down in the corner, silently enjoying his success. Veni, vedi, vici. Check out and rate the key looks below.

LOLWhere's Jeremy Reynolds or Keven Ten?
I really would like to see Kevin work on that second mark and I think that's very, very possible. I'm going to be unpopular for this opinion but, had the decision been in my hands, Kevin would have went to the Olympics instead of Vaughan. Vaughan is as good now as he will ever be, whereas I think Kevin can definitely grow a lot more. I'm reminded of Michelle Kwan's early years and how much she grew over the years from a jumping dynamo to a beautiful lyrical skater. While Vaughan was stronger at the fw, spins and program components, it's not like he's in Jeremy Abbott or Patrick Chan's league on those elements.
I think, because here in Canada we've had 2 men in a row who weren't jump specialists but blew the field away on the "other" elements, we've become a little complacent about the jumps.

The One That Almost Got Away: How I Averted Disaster With One Champagne Gift Basket
The clock was ticking on the biggest deal of my life. Long nights and weekends of working from home to prepare had almost paid off. Bringing in this client would be a big time event in my career and finally, they were on the hook.
All that was left was signing the paperwork and finding some special way to celebrate the new partnership. It took a bit of thinking to remember GiftTree, the name of the company that had sent the champagne basket to our CEO's office last week. It was hard to forget his excited reaction; this is a man with very high standards and the basket had knocked his socks off!
But what kind of champagne to start with? The options were many and they all looked so good!
Fortunately, GiftTree's website was very easy to navigate and helped me narrow it down in less than 5 minutes. I decided on a beautiful champagne and gourmet gift basket and received an email stating that it was packed and out the door to the office not long after I clicked the final payment button.
The next day was when it all mattered. The champagne gift basket arrived and I took it out of the box, already impressed with the detailed packaging. Wow! I was put at ease the moment I saw it.
I briefly considered if there was any way I could both seal the deal and still keep the basket for myself. It honestly looked that good!
I arranged all of the gourmet treats on the table around the contracts and pens. Premium crackers, exotic sauces and dips, decadent chocolates, savory spiced nuts, the delicacies captivated the eye in an instant. With the bottle of champagne prominently in the middle, the room had a fantastic atmosphere.
Yet when the client came into the room I could tell that something was wrong. He said that several other companies had also recently been trying to woo him and he wasn't sure that we were the right one. My heart dropped. He waved off my appeals to reconsider and turned to leave. I began to sweat. This couldn't be happening.
That's when he noticed the champagne gift basket and stopped in his tracks. I heard him whisper "woah" and sit down at the table.
A moment of silence passed as he stared at the items then turned to me and said that seeing this gift had changed everything. He mentioned that it told him we were willing to go the extra mile and that he could trust us.
The next morning I walked in to high-fives galore and my boss couldn't stop praising me for landing such a big client. I didn't tell him that it wasn't me, but GiftTree that saved the day. Now I've got the ultimate trump card in my back pocket, all thanks to GiftTree!

Simpson: Music for Brass
Archive Service Download currently discountedCDA66449
Movement 1: Adagio maestoso
Movement 2: Andante tranquillo
Movement 3: Allegro grazioso
Movement 4: Allegro molto
Movement 5: Presto vivo
Energy is made up of five short sections, gradually increasing in activity from a solemn Adagio maestoso introduction to a fiercely exuberant finale, Presto vivo. Each section is a little faster than the previous one, thereby creating the impression of a massive acceleration in momentum and excitement, despite the fact that the basic pulse that opens the work remains unaltered throughout. Energy is dedicated to Eric Ball, himself a renowned conductor and composer of brass band music.

The Monitoring and Evaluation 'Dashboard': Quantifying Incremental Progress
Monitoring progress on a year-to-year basis in country progress toward reproductive health supply security is a difficult task. For many priority health goals, such as reduction in maternal mortality, progress is incremental and often very difficult to measure.
For this reason that UNFPA has developed the 'Dashboard' software to monitor progress along the road to commodity security.
Each of the eight priority components has a unique set of quantifiable core indicators that can be measured by countries by completing a 120-item electronic questionnaire that requires approximately two hours to complete.
Mapping progress
Using the quantifiable indicators for each priority component, UNFPA has developed an overall 'Reproductive Health Commodity Security Country Status' score to measure a country's current overall effort. progress independent of impact. For example, in this framework scores includes items such as the degree of political support, whether laws have been reviewed, and the availability of resources.
This scoring system provides tangible short-term targets, or process indicators, for countries to aim for, rather than gauging progress by long-term achievements. Since the indicators are based on the recommended steps toward Reproductive Health Commodity Security (link here to SPARCHS), a high Country Status score is expected to be a strong predictor of progress toward these overall health goals.
The online Dashboard (link to dashboard) is a web-based platform that collects, organizes and displays the results of this questionnaire on a map so that users can easily visualize and compare country progress. UNFPA country offices can also use the dashboard to provide quarterly responses to the Core Indicator questionnaire, and all users, including governments and other partners, can track these individual results over time.
SPAHRCS: Strategic Pathways to Reproductive Health Commodity Security
Countries often makes use of a diagnostic guide developed by UNFPA, USAID and other agencies called SPARHCS (Strategic Pathways to Reproductive Health Commodity Security).
SPARCHS helps countries fully assess their reproductive health needs. It supports stakeholders in diagnosing a country's Reproductive Health Commodity Security status through a set of questions and tables. These help stakeholders frame their present situation, define expectations for the future, take into account significant trends from the past, and make future projections. Through this process, they can identify and assess the range of challenges and opportunities ahead.
The collaborative process that SPARHCS facilitates:
- Helps build and maintain multi-sectoral commitment to supply security by raising awareness of and support for commodity security as a program imperative
- Assists stakeholders reach consensus on priorities by providing a transparent and systematic approach
- Supports stakeholders develop a multi-partner strategy by harnessing synergies across sectors through collaboration and cooperation
• Sustains funded implementation of the strategy by requiring that resources be mobilized for each activity included in the plan prior to its initiation
• Facilitates ongoing monitoring and evaluation of strategy implementation and results by providing a transparent framework for Reproductive Health Commodity Security.
