IntelliWhite Pro Whitening Kit takes whitening pens to the extreme, using them in a full at-home whitening kit that avoids the use of messy trays, strips or gels altogether. IntelliWhite Pro Whitening Kit has several pending patents on their product and market it as a safe, effective, and easy to use product for just about anyone. One of the things that make this kit so unique (like many of IntelliWHiTE products!) is the latex free, 100% cotton bleach bumpers. These bumpers are similar to those used in the dental office and help retract your lips so you can easily apply the no-drip whitening paint to the teeth without having to push your lips out of the way. The bumpers keep tissue from coming into contact with the gel and wiping it off the teeth, and saliva from washing the solution off of the teeth as well. The entire application takes just 10 minutes and uses the intelliWHiTE whitening pen to apply the gel to your teeth. Use the included peroxide free stain eraser for on the go stain removal that compromises your whitening results. The gentle process freshens breath and is clinically tested to show that teeth are whitened up to 38% after just 6 uses. A barrier placed on the teeth also reduces your risk to develop new stain deposits. Included in the kit are two 7-day treatments of bleach bumpers and pro whitening pen to use every other week. There is also a 30-day supply of pro stain eraser pen.
To use, place a bumper under both the lower and upper lips then dry your teeth with a cloth or tissue. Then use the whitening pen by pushing the button until a small amount of gel appears on the brush. Brush a thin layer of gel on the front of the teeth, wait 10 minutes and then remove the bumpers as the whitener continues to work. Because it's still whitening, wait at least 20 minutes before eating or drinking. The whitening brush uses a felt tip for more specific whitening application. It also contains xylitol which is a sweetener that naturally prevents plaque from being able to build up on the teeth, improving both tooth and gum health while reducing the risk of decay. It can be used on veneers to remove stain as well.
- Expands the whitening capabilities of whitening pens
- Bleach bumpers prevent lips from coming into contact with the solution, reducing irritation and keeping the gel on your teeth
- Application time is just 10 minutes
- Contains xylitol, which prevents plaque buildup
- No trays or strips
- The pen gel may become thick and gummy. Keep the product sealed tightly
IntelliWhite Pro Whitening Kit allows people who prefer to whiten with whitening pens one of the most advanced whitening kits available for their whitening method. One of the major problems with choosing to use whitening pens is that the contact of the lips and saliva on the teeth prevent the gel formula from working as effectively or quickly as if it were applied in a strip or tray. With IntelliWhite Pro Whitening Kit the bleach bumpers prevent this problem altogether, allowing the whitening pen to do its work without having the gel wiped or washed away by lips and saliva. Some people do complain that the bumpers are difficult to use, but this tends to only be a problem if you have a heavy saliva flow. If you prefer whitening with a pen, you'll love the short 10 minute treatment time and the results of the IntelliWhite Pro Whitening Kit.

Touch Bionics, developer of advanced upper-limb bionic technologies, announced the commercial launch of ProDigits, the world's first powered bionic finger solution for patients with missing fingers. Now partial-hand patients have a dexterous powered solution to support their return to function and independence.
Created by the company responsible for market-leading bionics like the i-LIMB Hand, the ProDigits solution extends life-changing technology to partial-hand patients, whose finger absence is due either to congenital anomalies or to amputation from a traumatic incident or medical condition. The amputee population that can benefit from ProDigits is considerable, estimated at around 40,000 in the U.S. and 1.2 million worldwide, and until now, these people have had no commercially available powered prosthetic solution open to them.
Not having fingers or a thumb to act in opposition to one another makes simple tasks such as holding a fork or a cup difficult and frustrating. The articulating digit underpins much of ProDigits' technical advantage and it is this articulation that provides the biggest benefit to the patient. With the ability to bend, touch, pick-up and point, the ProDigits used within an overall prosthesis reflects the function of a natural hand.
Vince Verges was one of four men aboard a Navy EA-6B when it crashed on the Olympic Peninsula on March 19, 1992. He lost all the fingers on his left hand during the ejection.
Prior to receiving ProDigits, Vince most looked forward to the independence his new prosthesis would provide. Vince values the simplification of everyday living activities offered by ProDigits, such as using a drive thru without having to reach over with his right hand, going to the water cooler at his office and not being forced to juggle the process with one hand, and a far more efficient experience going through a buffet line with two hands available.
In an industrial accident, Michael Bailey lost three of the fingers on his left hand, plus half of the rest of his hand and five of the eight bones in his wrist. Despite having never used a myoelectric prosthetic device before, Michael found adapting to ProDigits incredibly easy.
"Honestly, I had only put it on for five minutes and I was getting it to work just fine," he said. "It feels like it belongs there, like it's part of me."
The nature of each partial-hand patient case is unique, and therefore each prosthetic build is also unique. The concept behind ProDigits is something never before commercially available in the prosthetics industry. Sockets are custom-designed and fabricated by clinicians to suit each individual's specific needs.
"Vocational and social reengagement is very important to a patient's rehabilitation after a traumatic event. Partial-hand injuries are, by their nature, challenging aesthetically and functionally," said Stuart Mead, CEO, Touch Bionics. "With ProDigits, our goal is to provide all that we can to reinstate a patient's function and interaction with other people in their chosen lifestyle and career."
Because of the personalized nature of each ProDigits fitting, Touch Bionics is developing a clinical collaborator program in North America that will see the company partner with practitioners in order to fit patients. Around the world, Touch Bionics has established relationships and distribution channels in over 40 countries to support the roll-out of ProDigits, supported from its Centre of Excellence in Livingston, Scotland.
"Partial-hand amputation represents the largest group of arm amputees, and with ProDigits we finally have a functional state-of-the-art myoelectric prosthesis that we can offer this previously underserved amputee population," said Jack Uellendahl, C.P.O., clinical prosthetics specialist, Hanger Prosthetics and Orthotics. "With ProDigits, each finger is capable of being a standalone functional unit, allowing for fitting of many different configurations of hand absence. In addition, the movement of the ProDigit prosthesis is natural in appearance, delivering a more elegant solution to partial hand restoration than previously possible."
There are two control strategies that can be employed to power ProDigits: either myoelectric sensors that register muscle signals from the residual finger or palm, or a pressure sensitive switch input in the form of a force sensitive resistor (FSR), or touch pad, which relies on the remnant digit or tissue surrounding the metacarpal bone to provide the necessary pressure to activate the finger. As with the i-LIMB Hand, a unique stall feature allows the device to detect when it has closed around an object, also allowing users to point single digits and configure the hand in various grip patterns.
Touch Bionics offers a range of coverings for ProDigits. For some patients the high-tech clear and black robotic skins offered by the company create a confident and highly functional solution. Others prefer a LIVINGSKIN option – this high definition silicone solution is used to provide a human-like restoration to the combined limb and prosthesis for a comprehensive prosthetic restoration.

Is this shoe basically like the bottom half of a Scarpa Kailash?
Wally Phillips
Member since
Hey Logan F. Crooks,
Good question. The bottom of the Scarpa Zen Multisport Shoe - Men's and the Scarpa Kailash are different as they both use different sole treads from VIBRAM and the Zen has EVA cushioning while the Kailash uses the sole only for cushion. Also, the Kailash has a smaller toe rand on the end than the Zen as the Zen can be used as an approach shoe while the Kailash is more for backpacking.

Toronto-based Cube Works Studio recently set a new Guinness World Record by building the world's largest Rubik's Cube Mosaic from 80,940 cubes! Standing over 13 feet high and 200 feet wide, the artwork recreates the skyline of Macau, China. It was installed on the Macau waterfront just outside Hong Kong in December.
Cube Studio Works collaborated with international teams to design a mosaic made entirely of small Rubik's cubes. By twisting each of the 80,940 cubes, the artists have recreated Macau's skyline and showcased different local landmarks. The process was based on the digital transformation of art paintings and photos into pixel art that was then assembled on site by a team of 20 people.
This is the third time that Cube Works Studio has designed and assembled the world's largest Rubik's Cube mosaic. Some of the their other record-breaking pieces include a large recreation of the Sistine Chapel's centerpiece made of over 12,000 Rubik's Cubes and a 4,050 Rubik's Cube replica of the Last Supper. Plans are in motion for even bigger projects in the months to come.

Hello everyone. I am still in my 1st tri BUT I already know my babys name MUST and WILL start with a "Z"
For a girl I like "Zayd" and for a boy, "Zane"
Does anyone have any suggestions on other "Z" names for boys and girls? I looked up stuff on the internet and was getting freaky things like zenohia and zedijanus!
Must start with Z and not sound like some made up language or a weirdo freak!
I agree with PPs suggestions of Zara for a girl. When we were at the kids section of Barnes & Noble the other day, my daughter was playing with this toddler named Zara and she was such a cutie. :-)
While commonplace (and maybe dated? I dunno), I think Zachary is nice for a boy.
I did NOT know Zayd was an arabic boys name. Hahaha I came up with it from my head. Well thats marked off!
Zara is cute. Would that be Zah-ra or Zara with a long A.
My 9 year olds name is Zachary so I am glad everyone suggest that name =)
And the reason I am stuck on "Z" is because 9 yrs ago when I had Zachary, I said if I ever have another it will be a "Z" too and my son likes that idea, too =)
Middle name has to start with a "J"
And so far for a boy: Jacob or Jaxon
girl: Juliet or Jude
Zeke (Ezekiel)
I like Zoe, Zelda or Zara for a girl.
I really like Zane for a boy (I had an ex named Shane though, so it was too close for us to use) and Zander. You could even go with Zavier. I had a friend just name their son Zaber, not a big fan of that, but another suggestion.

Keynotes, Workshops and Special Events
From her useful perspective as physician-survivor, Wendy Harpham educates, comforts and inspires patients to get good care and live as fully as possible, whatever their specific challenges.
Each keynote is tailored to the event's theme and audience. Most keynotes are 50 minutes, but she can shorten or expand her presentation, as needed. Dr. Harpham uses PowerPoint effectively to highlight key ideas and provide comic relief.
Presentations for Patients, Caregivers and the General Public
Happiness in a Storm: Embracing Life as a Healthy Survivor
While dealing with her own chronic lymphoma, Dr. Wendy Harpham coined the term "Healthy Survivor" for any patient who (1) gets good care and (2) lives as fully as possible.
Since the publication of Happiness in a Storm, this has been Dr. Harpham most popular keynote.Using personal stories and humor, she offers practical philosophy and science-based knowledge that helps patients obtain quality care and live well after a diagnosis of cancer or other serious illness. Dr. Harpham illustrates how patients can find happiness despite illness and, sometimes, even because of it.
Healthy Survivorship through Knowledge, Hope and Action
Healthy Survivors get good medical care and minimize the pain, debility and loss due to their illness. Through personal stories and humor, Dr. Wendy Harpham shares her three-step approach to getting good care and living as fully as possible: Obtain sound knowledge, find and nourish hope and take effective action. She demonstrates how becoming a Healthy Survivor frees patients to find happiness despite illness and, in some cases, because of it.
When a Parent has Cancer, What About the Children?
Dr. Wendy Harpham is the author of the award-winning book set—When a Parent has Cancer and its companion children's book, Becky and the Worry Cup. In this keynote, Harpham uses personal stories to simplify many of the complex problems parents confront when balancing their own needs against those of their children. She offers helpful insights and hopeful advice, based on her belief that "The greatest gift we can give our children is not protection from the world, but the confidence and tools to cope and grow."
After Cancer: Embracing Life as a Healthy Survivor
The final dose of cancer therapy may mark the end of treatment, but it does not signal the end of the cancer experience. Survivors now face the challenges of integrating unwanted changes and losses into their life after cancer. Dr. Wendy Harpham knows about these challenges from both sides of the stethoscope. In this keynote, she shares an approach to life after cancer that helps patients become Healthy Survivors, namely, survivors who get good care and live as fully as possible. She encourages survivors to find happiness despite changes and losses, and, sometimes, because of them.
Late Effects: What's a Survivor to Do?
Surviving cancer is a modern phenomenon thanks to progress in diagnosis and treatment. unfortunately, this success has been won at some cost: Ongoing and/or new medical problems are common after completion of treatment. Dr. Harpham provides a brief, clear overview of the biology of late effects and develops a healthy, hopeful framework for integrating the reality of late effects into life after cancer.
The Healing Power of Clinical Trials
Physician-survivor Dr. Wendy Harpham has benefited from the progress and hope of clinical trials. After briefly reviewing fundamentals about clinical trials, she shares personal stories from her survivorship journey that portray the challenges and emotions that can arise while participating in a clinical trial.

Home > Health & Wellness > Health Library > Missed Periods and Endurance Training
If you participate in endurance sports, you may miss periods or stop
menstruating. This is called secondary amenorrhea, and it occurs because your
ovaries are not producing enough
estrogen. It is believed that stress and low body fat
contribute to amenorrhea. This is more likely to happen if you are younger and
if your periods are irregular to begin with.
Female athletes may use many harmful strategies, including excessive
dieting, binging, and purging, in order to lose or maintain weight.
Female athlete triad is a combination of three
conditions that are common with athletic training: eating disorders, such as
bulimia or
anorexia; the absence of menstrual periods
(amenorrhea); and
You can prevent female athlete triad.
If you exercise less or gain a little weight, your periods will
probably start again. If these solutions are not possible or do not work, your
doctor may prescribe birth control pills to help restore your cycle. These will
regulate your periods and help keep your bones strong, reducing your risk for
brittle bones (osteoporosis). Your doctor also may prescribe calcium
supplements to help ensure that your bones stay healthy.
You can still become pregnant even though you are not menstruating.
Practice birth control if you do not wish to become pregnant.

CBS' Watch Magazine Has a Soundtrack, and It's Classical
If films get soundtracks, and television shows are backed by popular music and original scores, who says a print magazine can't be, too?
Watch — an entertainment magazine produced by CBS, just debuted marketing videos for its celebrity and lifestyles coverage with a special bit of background noise — the sounds of a British violinist and a 22-piece orchestra.
According to an interview Watch magazine execs recently did with the New York Times' Stuart Elliott, the CBS print spinoff (which, obviously, can also be accessed online, via smartphone apps and mobile devices, where the commissioned piece of music can be heard) decided to hire classical violinist Charlie Siem to write the piece for Watch's "brand videos". Titled "Canopy", the composition by Siem (who didn't hesitate to call the project "unusual" but "rewarding"), was meant to "help [Watch magazine's] video content stand out amid the clutter."
And after CBS' Watch licensed the Chris Brown tune "Beautiful People" in 2013 for a big chunk of change, the pub was looking to incorporate original music into its social media and web promos for a cheaper price.

What does your AUP say? Ours says that all activity is monitored, however I generally get permission from our head if emails need monitoring, and it's only ever been by me, I haven't given anyone else access
Does anyone have a definitive answer to this one?
I have been asked to access a student's email account to provide evidence for a complaint. I don't know the nature of the complaint, but it's probably an investigation of bullying or general 'larking about'.
I refused to give access to the account without the student's consent, on the grounds that this would breach their Human Right to Privacy. TBH I don't really give a monkey's about their Human Rights, before you all start accusing me of being a left-wing pansy, but this was the advice I was given some years ago at a seminar given by a legal firm. Their advice was essentially that a student doesn't give up any of their rights to privacy or under the DPA just because they happen to be students.
On the flip-side, our Head is arguing (possibly quite reasonably) that the email is on our system, they're students, and he'll insist that they give consent, but he doesn't see why he should have to.
Anyone know the answer? Even more pertinently, can someone point me towards some published advice on this?

The school owns the e-mail and they'd (students) presumably sign something saying within the AUP that allows for this access?
Honestly, I'd do it because:
a) A boss has said to do it, they're accountable - you're just following instructions
b) It may save someone getting a kick-in?
c) It's not worth arguing with a senior member of staff regarding it, you're not going to win!
If it was his Hotmail account and you sniffed the PW/logged it... different story!

It says we can monitor emails within the scope of RIPA. That means I can track emails etc, but not necessarily view the contents. Human Rights becomes an issue, I think...
Our regulations state quite clearly under what conditions we would access a student's (or a member of staff) email. What does yours say?
In truth, I'm encouraged to argue with SLT whenever necessary - as a holder of specialist expertise, I'm supposed to advise them. That said, if they insist I shall make a note of it and carry out the action anyway. We're usually pretty hot on this sort of thing - because I've flagged it as an issue, the lawyers will be contacted for advice, etc. I'm just wondering if anyone else has dealt with it before.
You can sign an AUP that says we're allowed to read your e-mail if we feel it's necessary, that is the terms of you getting an e-mail account... it means they can read your e-mail. If the pupils (or staff) haven't signed anything that implicitly states this... you have a case to argue it. I'd imagine both staff and pupils have, somewhere along the lines...
Are you suggesting that your AUP (or RIPA) gives you the legal right to access someone's account without their consent in order to access their emails?
So not totally clear cut. I think I'll have to get to grips with the detail of RIPA.
It's just to bolster any argument - not aimed to resolve this debate ;-)
This link may or may not be helpful: ICO - The Employment Practices Code - Supplementary Guidelines
It refers heavily to employees and students are not employees.
It seems your AUP may need further work to make sure that students and staff are aware that email content may be monitored where part of an investigation and will only be done under the written direction of the Headteacher/SLT.The requirement of the LBP Regulations is to make reasonable efforts to inform users of the system that an interception may take place.
If you interpret the clause you have too literally, the school is powerless to fulfill its legal responsibilities under Safeguarding... i.e. it has to be able to investigate Safeguarding issues.
dwhyte85 (1st February 2011)
No, students are not employees. Equally, you could argue that the majority of schools are not businesses. Which makes the paper irrelevant. Unless you assume that by "employees" they mean "users"? Besides which, that document a) only covers interception of emails during the course of transmission (and not accessing someone's email account) and b) only appears to allow it for reasons that don't apply to a school.
A common thread here seems to be the suggestion that you can get away with pretty much anything if your AUP says you can, but this isn't true. If your AUP asserts something that is not allowable by law, it doesn't suddenly become allowable. It just means your AUP is not applicable. The fact that I enter a clause into my AUP stating that I can read student (or staff) emails without consent doesn't necessarily make it so, even with regard to safeguarding. The ability to investigate safeguarding issues doesn't mean that you can do whatever you like... I couldn't break into someone's house to investigate a potential safeguarding issue. My question is: can I break into someone's email account. The suggestion that "Yes you can if it's in your AUP" isn't good enough, because that doesn't cover you for illegal breaches.
I'm just awaiting a response from our lawyers - I'll let you know what they say.
So, you're suggesting if teacher X is assumed to be having a relationship with pupil Y and they've been communicating over e-mails... that the school should simply wait for permission from either pupil Y or teacher X to go ahead and check e-mails?
If they don't consent, what then? Wait for the police?
You mention 'breaking in', as I see it the school has rented the pupil an e-mail account to use based on a set of terms. It's not breaking in as such, it's checking up that was agreed to prior to the account being setup.
If you have a landlord and they've got a clause that states 'If we think you're doing something naughty, we can enter without warning' and it's signed.... they can pretty much do that.
Last edited by dwhyte85; 1st February 2011 at 02:57 PM.
If I was suggesting anything, I would suggest that if Teacher X was 'assumed' to be having a relationship with Pupil Y then this wouldn't necessarily be enough for you to just access their email accounts. I don't know that for a fact, which is why I asked the question originally, but my understanding of various regulations would certainly suggest this.
RIPA wouldn't help you, because it covers communication interception at the time of transmission.
Your AUP wouldn't help you because it would be in breach of the privacy obligation of the Human Rights Act (and possibly the Computer Misuse Act).
I would suggest that you would investigate it the same way as any other disciplinary or legal issue, which would be to interview both parties, ask for permission to access their emails (in the same way that you might ask for permission to view their mobile phone SMS details) and then pass the issue onto the police.
Are you suggesting that the suspicion that someone might be in that situation means that you can just do what you want? You would need permission to search them, look in their bags, enter their house. The fact that the School owns the telephone system, network, or even mail server does not automatically give them the right to access the private information contained within those systems (as I understand it).
I have to say again though that it isn't particularly clear-cut. I can't find anything that is conclusive on this.

institute for administrators in catholic higher education
Each July, for over a decade, Boston College in collaboration with the ACCU has hosted the IACHE, a five-day seminar providing the opportunity for select senior administrators and other leaders at Catholic colleges and universities from the United States and from around the globe to interact with some of our most outstanding scholars and practitioners in Catholic higher education as they address issues related to mission, vision and integration of Catholic identity.
"Twenty-two percent of the survey respondents reported being promoted within or at another Catholic college or university since attending the IACHE. Six percent of past participants have been appointed to the post of senior mission officer at their institution. Four percent of past participants have been appointed as the president at a Catholic college or university"

An amazingly compact 5" design
What if you could make the display bigger without increasing the phone size? Sony Xperia ZL manages the design impossible: a display size that's second to none, in a smartphone that fits in your pocket. Optimizing components architecture, Sony engineers increased display size while keeping the phone as small as possible. The result is the smartphone with a very high screen to phone size ratio. What stands out instead of a large frame? The maximized display. And the unparalleled entertainment that seems to overflow the phone in your hands.

"As of right now, you have no building," Community Education Council 24 president Nick Comaianni told the representative of a proposed new charter school on Tuesday, all but squashing plans for the Arista Hellenic Charter School of Corona to open at 98-07 38 Ave. in Sept. 2014.
The building is owned by the Transfiguration of Christ Greek Orthodox Church, which wants to open a charter school, but Comaianni doesn't see this happening so soon.
"This is stuff that takes quite some time," he said in a telephone interview. "They need a staff, a principal. It takes at least a year or two to put in place."
On Tuesday, Maria Pastis, chairperson of the school's board of directors, outlined the proposal.
"The mission is to promote excellence in student learning and close the achievement gap for all students through an academically rigorous core knowledge K-5 curriculum, a comprehensive Greek study program and customized instruction," she said.
She said the maximum number of students per class is 25. The school would feature an extended day, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., as well as after-school extracurricular activities. The school would follow an extended school year consisting of 190 days. Admission would be through a lottery system.
One point of contention is the availability of the proposed building, which currently serves as an annex to PS 143.
"We were told by the DOE that the DOE signed a lease for the upcoming year," Comaianni said. "The DOE told me they'll have the building for the next year at least and hopefully permanently once they purchase the building," he said
That would mean the founders of the proposed school would be forced to look for a new space to set up shop.
Father George Anastasiou, pastor of the church, tells a totally different story.
"The church has never and will never entertain an option to sell the building to the DOE," he said in a telephone interview. "Our intention is to open a charter school.
"We do have a building. We signed a two-year lease with the DOE two years ago. That lease expires now."
He indicated that "we have authorized the DOE to use the building for one more year on a month-to-month basis with no option to buy." He said "it's basically a verbal agreement" and that no formal lease has been signed.
"I'm very disappointed that in an area with such a need for a school, a building ready to house that overflow is being railroaded."
Comaianni said he cannot see the DOE giving up the building "unless there's an extreme problem." He also doubted that the DOE would agree to a month-to-month lease on a building intended for use as a school. A copy of the lease provided by Anastasiou suggests otherwise.
In the past ten years, CEC 24 has approved only one charter school, according to Comaianni, in reference to the Middle Village Preparatory Charter School.
"They showed us an ability to stand alone and every amenity. They weren't taking any building away from the DOE. For us, it was a plus," he said.
"When it comes to charter schools, we don't believe in co-location. I want to know how the students will be seated, where's the lunchroom, where's the gym. If a charter school approaches us for approval, we want to know all these things," he said.
As for the new proposal, he said, "I cannot see them opening by 2014. By January you have to see what kids are going there."
A town hall meeting to discuss the school was scheduled for June 22 from 1 to 3 p.m. at the church's assembly hall on 38th Ave.

Although revenue was flat year-over-year with a sizeable increase in Communications Systems sales neutralized by ongoing weakness in U.S. government spending for Battery & Energy Products, we generated gross margin above 30% for the second consecutive quarter and operating margin of 8%, a 200 basis point improvement. We achieved these margin gains while continuing to invest in sales and new product development. In addition, we continued to drive working capital efficiency, generating free cash flow and ending the year with cash of $10 million," said Michael D. Popielec, Ultralife's president and chief executive officer.
"During 2013 we intend to further invest in new product development and broadening our sales reach ahead of revenue generation, and funding these investments through continued manufacturing productivity gains and reductions in discretionary spending. With a significantly lower cost infrastructure, an expanding set of global project opportunities for our new products and new sales leadership, we are looking forward to the further operating leverage revenue growth will bring," concluded Popielec.Fourth Quarter 2012 Financial Results During the quarter, management elected not to renew the lease for its U.K. manufacturing facility which expires on March 24, 2013, and to relocate its sales and services operations to a smaller facility. As a result of this decision, Ultralife is required to restore the facility back to its original condition per a previous contractual commitment. The estimated costs associated with the restoration total approximately $950,000 of which $200,000 has been recorded in fourth quarter general & administrative expenses and $750,000 has been recorded as discontinued operations. In addition, Ultralife expects to realize net savings of approximately $500,000 on an annualized basis beginning in the second quarter of 2013.

An uplifting, sentimental and romantic track that fits well into scenes with professions of love or scenes of goodbye that don't refer to sadness. This track is also perfect for wedding or special anniversary videos.
English horn and French horn exchange the melody at the beginning, with the former offering perhaps a bit of a bittersweet impression, but the remainder of the track is certainly full of romance and joy. Beautiful string expansion with a reduction in ensemble near the end as it finishes on the beautiful sonority of a major chord with added sixth.
High quality WAV and MP3 files are included!

Skill formation is critical to a country's recovery from the global economic crisis and to its long-term development. Skills are at the core of improving an individual's job prospects and increasing a country's productivity and growth. An education system in which students attend school but do not learn is a lost opportunity, especially when one additional year of schooling raises earnings by 10 to 20 percent. Today, developing countries and emerging economies seek higher growth rates but face serious demographic challenges—from rapidly growing numbers of youth in Africa who have not yet mastered the basic competencies of writing and arithmetic and a "youth bulge" of new jobseekers in the Middle East, to a demographic transition of shrinking labor forces in Eastern Europe and East Asia. Making the most effective use of the workforce is vital for developing countries. It depends in large part on the ability of the education system to produce knowledge and skills. The education system must ensure clear learning standards, good teachers, adequate resources, and a proper regulatory environment for learning to take place. It must promote job-relevant skills that employers demand by developing the right incentive framework for both pre-employment and on-the-job training programs and institutions (including higher education). It must encourage entrepreneurship and innovation by creating an environment that encourages problem solving skills and creativity. These challenges are at the forefront as the World Bank embarks on the development of a new education strategy which will chart the course of our work in education over the next 10 years.
Back to top
Today, the World Bank manages a portfolio of $11.7 billion, with operations in 81 countries around the world. Partially in response to the economic crisis, which threatened gains in education and put the poorest households at risk, global support to education reached a historic high of over $5 billion in 2010. International Development Association (IDA) interest-free credits and grants to the world's poorest countries rose to a record high of more than $2.1 billion in new commitments for education this year. Across the institution, overall support to protect and invest in human development rose – with education totaling almost 9% of total Bank financing in 2010.
Also, this year the World Bank's board approved financing for two large education operations for India totaling $1.05 billion to support India's recent mandate to make basic education compulsory for all children from 6-14 years of age. Additionally, loans approved to Mexico in 2010 topped $1 billion for improving upper secondary education, school-based management, and early childhood education.
A Knowledge Bank: The World Bank complements its global operations with leading work on international education policy, country-level analyses, and rigorous impact evaluations that generate stronger evidence about what works in education. An evaluation of school management reform in the Punjab province of Pakistan, found that school and student "report cards" increased learning achievement in public schools, by empowering parents with knowledge about education quality. Over 100 publications and other knowledge products published in the past year tackle pressing issues, such as the Financing Higher Education in Africa report, which discusses options for financing the next generation of teachers, doctors, engineers and other professionals.
Research increasingly points to evidence that early childhood development is essential to success in school and life. A new report, The Promise of Early Childhood Development in Latin America and the Caribbean, makes the case that early and targeted measures to ensure that the youngest children receive the proper care and early learning opportunities are one of the smartest, most cost-effective investments to ensure future educational achievement. In partnership with Shakira's ALAS Foundation and the Earth Institute,
Another report, Rethinking School Feeding: Social Safety Nets, Child Development and the Education Sector underlines the importance of child health and nutrition to learning, educational achievement and child development. The book is the product of a partnership between the World Bank and the UN World Food Programme. Early childhood education should be protected during economic crises. In Latvia, a new World Bank safety net project is boosting support to vital social programs such as early childhood education.
While progress has been made to build the capacity of education systems, much remains to be done to ensure children and youth receive a high quality education and that learning occurs in the classroom. Literacy and numeracy are basic competencies that unlock life opportunities and allow for further educational advancement. The World Bank works closely with countries to improve quality at all levels of education by focusing on learning outcomes. Through a $32 million trust fund executed by the World Bank, the Russia Education Aid for Development (READ) program is helping low-income countries in Eastern Europe, Central Asia, and Sub-Saharan Africa strengthen their capacity to measure and assess student learning and use this information to improve teaching and learning. In the West Bank and Gaza, a World Bank project is aligning the competencies and skills of current and future primary school teachers to meet new certification standards developed in partnership with the EU and UNESCO. Engaging parents and communities in school quality and management is also critical. In Peru, results of analytic work shared with the public through a video entitled Do You Know How Much Your Children Are Learning? was the centerpiece of outreach efforts to help parents in rural and low-income areas understand national assessments that gauge whether children are performing at grade level.
Over the past 10 years, more than 80% of all IDA support to education has gone to Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, the regions with the largest number of out-of school children. The World Bank also hosts the Secretariat of the global partnership, the Education for All – Fast Track Initiative (FTI) which helps 36 low-income countries to develop education sector plans and deliver primary education. In Malawi, efforts to increase access and improve quality of basic education focus on providing demand-side interventions, increasing the national teacher corps, and building management capacity by decentralizing school planning to the local level. Additional financing to Haiti, in conjunction with FTI support, has provided critical school feeding and reconstruction following the recent earthquake.
Targeted efforts can help bring out-of-school children and youth into the classroom – especially girls, rural and indigenous children, and those affected by poverty, conflict, and disability. Programs such as Indonesia's BOS-KITA project give block grants directly to schools for operating expenses, on a per student funding basis – increasing enrollment and reducing the cost of schooling, especially for poor families. The report, Transforming Indonesia's Teaching Force, highlights the benefits of aligning funding and teacher deployment on a per-student basis. In rural areas with few children, well designed multi-grade teaching efforts can work. In Bangladesh, the Reaching Out-of- School Children Project, has helped enroll over 500,000 out-of-school children since 2004 through more than 15,000 schools in districts with high poverty and low enrollment. In Nigeria, innovative school development grants and performance-based school awards are helping to improve the quality of lower secondary education.
The World Bank works in partnership with low and middle-income countries to invest in improving the equity, performance and relevance of education systems through financing and global expertise. The World Bank contributes to advancing global education in three main ways:
Knowledge The World Bank serves as a knowledge bank for data, research findings and best practices in policy design and implementation. Generating and sharing this knowledge through technical advice, reports and publications, training activities and communications is a Bank priority.
Financing and Operations The World Bank is one of the world's largest sources of external education aid to developing countries. Through loans, credits and grants, it provides financial support to the governments of developing countries to assist in the design and implementation of education sector plans. The Bank works closely with countries at the ground level through decentralized field offices to ensure collaboration and ownership. Capacity building for private education is undertaken through the International Finance Corporation (IFC), the private sector arm of the World Bank Group.
Partnership The World Bank works in close partnership with multilateral international organizations, bilateral donors, and civil society to align donor aid with developing country objectives. Such collaboration, through partnerships and co-financing, helps ensure the greatest impact.
Education Year in Review: 2012 | 2011 | 2009 | 2008

Some people have difficulty growing their hair beyond a certain length because they have a short active phase of growth. On the other hand, people with very long hair have a long active phase of growth. The hair on the arms, legs, eyelashes, and eyebrows have a very short active growth phase of about 30-45 days, explaining why they are so much shorter than scalp hair. Transplanted hair doesn't know it's in a new location and so eyelash transplants from the scalp need to be trimmed every few weeks to avoid looking like a tarantula.
By the way, while men tend to prefer women with long hair (ever see a painting of Eve with a buzz cut?), women, especially as they age, seem to prefer wearing shorter hair. After all, long hair on a mature, sophisticated woman can seem about as appropriate as shoveling soup with your fingers. More importantly, our hair tells us a ton about our overall health status, as the growth or loss of hair can signal other malfunctions going on inside of our bodies.
