Lead scoring is a widely discussed strategic topic among marketing automation users. Oftentimes the immediate tactical nuances include lead nurturing, content marketing, and dynamic content.
Lead scoring isn't an "old fashioned trick" we used two or three years ago when automation system adoption began to grow rapidly. The success and efficiency of automation tools, as well as your programs and campaigns, hinges on effective lead scoring.
Let me pitch you a perhaps-familiar story: Excited and thrilled by marketing automation, you setup your instance, turn on lead scoring, define your job role list for personas, and go score! To focus on ramping up your automation efforts, you focus on lead nurturing to advance your engagement with prospects and customers. Have you checked back up on your initial step to check if your lead scoring system is running correctly?
After you read these reporting analysis tips, go into Eloqua and in your CRM and generate these reports:
#MQLs by Lead Score and Geography
#MQLs Converted by Lead Score
#MQLs Rejected by lead Score
These three reports will help you to identify if your scoring behaves properly and here are few things you might discover:
1. Data issues:
- Standardized forms (job role for instance) are not fitting for all goes across the globe and most of the time NA & APAC (as native English countries) have better accuracy on job role selection.
- People fill out misleading information! How many contacts have you generated from those who have selected Afghanistan in the country dropdown menu? It's the first country available in most dropdown lists, and frequently selected to bypass necessary information and proceed to the next option to access gated content.
- The longer your web forms are, the greater the probability that you're collecting inaccurate data.
2. Model issues:
- High ranked personas are not the same people we talk to or sell to in real life. I wish I could speak with Fortune 500 CEOs everyday, but unfortunately this is not the case. In developing your personas, be sure to distinguish target and goal audiences. Analyzing your web traffic data can help you in this task.
- Consider the score weight of "profile" in comparison to "behavior." What's more important: having a CEO (probably not CEO as per the point above) download a white paper or a manager taking 10 different actions on your web site?
- Be prepared for massive content consumption. Is your scoring program able to assess and correctly score (means not too quickly not too late) multiple actions taken by a contact both on your web site and on social networks?
3. Internal issues:
- Last but not least but definitively true. Can you trust your marketing managers? Sometimes marketing qualified lead (MQL) targets can potentially cause skewing of lead scores. A sound lead scoring program should enable your organization to make decisions based on facts and data — not just assumptions or hunches.
It's critical to note that a lead scoring program is not a "legacy thing." Establishing parameters to effectively score based on personas, targets, and real data is the key to refining lead routing processes. By measuring lead scoring program effectiveness over time, you can determine how to best align your nurture paths and deliver the right content to facilitate the discovery process with your community. But keep in mind the balance of scoring: Under-score and you can potentially miss opportunities; over score and you run the risk of creating frustration among sales reps experiencing high rejection rates.

After selling seafood at the same Palm Beach, Fla., spot for nearly 30 years, Cod & Capers Seafood was eager for a much larger space, one with room for a café, a fish market, a wholesale operation and offices. That was no small task, since its previous facility was just 4,600 square feet, even after three separate expansions.
The challenges of renovating influenced the careful steps that owner Steve Gyland took when shopping for a new site. "We started the process of looking [for property] back in 2008, and it took almost two years of negotiating to close the deal on where we are now," Gyland says.
Gyland and other Cod & Capers executives settled on the new 8,600-square-foot, free-standing building — which opened in early January — because of its space and location. Situated right off of U.S. Route 1, a major north-south highway that traces the entire East Coast, the massive building used to be a T.G.I. Friday's. The new spot is also convenient for the store's loyal customers, since it is only about two miles away from its old location.
While Gyland wanted to open a restaurant within the new building, the chain-restaurant setup wasn't the right fit. The new owners decided to completely gut the facility, "down to the dirt floor," Gyland says, and completely re-design the structure to function as its current mixed retail, Cod & Capers Café and wholesale operation. "We looked at trying to use what was here and work around that. Had I not been in the seafood business as long as I have and had gone through those expansions, I might have tried fixing it up," Gyland says.
For example, Gyland could have relocated Cod & Capers' 20-year-old coolers and freezers, but realized that would be more expensive in the long run. "It could have cost $35,000 to move an $80,000 freezer," Gyland says, not to mention a necessary shutdown for several weeks.
Instead, the team purchased all new refrigeration and freezer equipment and completely revamped the building for around $1.5 million. Next, they needed to figure out how to transfer operations without disrupting customer service.
"Normally, it would take three to four weeks to shut down while we would transfer all the coolers, freezers, display cases and other equipment. Because of the wholesale nature of our business — a fairly large component — we became aware of the fact that we really couldn't shut down," Gyland says.
So, on Saturday, Jan. 5, after closing the old Cod & Capers location at 6 p.m., the entire staff began moving all of its equipment and product, including computers, phones and seafood inventory, across town.
"We spent Saturday afternoon until Monday morning re-stocking the new store and getting everything in place. Our wholesale business was completely operational on Monday morning," Gyland says.
The new building features around 4,000 square feet for cold storage, 2,200 square feet of retail and wholesale space, 900 square feet for offices, and around 1,500 square feet for the café, which also sports a 1,500-square-foot outdoor patio with canopy.
While the previous Cod & Capers location did not feature a café, customers requested a sit-down option to add to its "Cod & Carry" line of prepared foods.
"For many years, customers asked for a restaurant where they can eat the stone crabs, soup and other seafood," Gyland says.
The 78-seat Cod & Capers Café serves lunch and dinner six days a week with specials like the Fried Oyster Roll for $14 and the Florida Lobster Risotto for $28. The café slowly ramped up its hours and is now open Monday through Saturday for lunch, and Wednesday through Saturday for dinner.
While café sales account for around 4 percent of Cod & Capers' overall sales, Gyland expects that to grow to around 15 percent by the end of the year. Wholesale is still Cod & Capers' biggest moneymaker at more than 80 percent of overall sales, but retail is also performing well at around 13 percent of all sales, up from 10 percent at the previous location.
Utilizing local, sustainable seafood and hiring knowledgeable staff are among the fish market's keys to success. "We educate clerks so they can answer anything that customers ask. If they don't know the answer, they find out," Gyland says.

Addison disease
Addison disease
Disease in which gradual atrophy of the adrenal cortex causes the adrenal glands to produce insufficient quantities of the steroid hydrocortisone while causing the pituitary gland to produce excess quantities of pituitary hormones. Most of the cortex tissue is destroyed by the time symptoms (including weakness, abnormal coloration, weight loss, and hypotension) appear. Hydrocortisone-replacement therapy is often successful, usually given with other hormones to stabilize sodium levels. More than half of cases are believed to be due to an autoimmune reaction (see autoimmune disease); the remainder are caused by destruction of the adrenal gland by granuloma (e.g., tuberculosis).

Supporters of Mount Assisi Academy in Lemont held a vigil on Monday night, Feb. 3, 2014. The school is scheduled to close. | Jaime Angio~For Sun-Times Media.
Article Extras
Updated: March 5, 2014 6:26AM
More than 100 students, alumnae, friends and family of Mount Assisi Academy in Lemont held a vigil on the front steps of the school Monday night to try to rally support for keeping the all-girls high school open.
Their message was that the Mount Assisi community is an extended and close family, one that they don't want to see torn apart.
"Now I have to find a new school, and all my friends will be leaving and I love this school. The school has made a big impact on me, it can't close," said Abby Maloy, 15, of Bedford Park, a sophomore at the Catholic school, 13860 Main St.
She was not alone in her feelings. Those attending the vigil lit candles, said prayers, chanted and spoke of their love for the school and how devastating it would be to see it close.
The order of nuns that owns and runs the school, the School Sisters of St. Francis of Christ the King, announced last week that falling enrollment had created financial problems too great to overcome and the school would close at the end of the current school year in June.
Mount Assisi was established in 1951 and has been at its current site since 1955.
Enrollment has dropped from 315 seven years ago to 143 today, creating rising debt that the order can no longer carry, the order said.
Peggy Healy, 49, of Chicago's Beverly community, is president of the parents association at Mount Assisi Academy, and she hopes the school officials will keep an open mind on ways to keep it open.
"We're having a vigil out here celebrating Mount Assisi Academy but also trying to get the school not to close," Healy said.
"The school has been a blessing for my daughter, who had self-esteem problems before she came here. What we're trying to do is show the support for the school.
"It's a wonderful place, and what we're trying to show how much it does mean to people, and ... that there are different ways to keep it open. We would like the school (officials) to keep an open mind and let us just try."
Some parents and alumnae are working to raise money for the school. The school has held several fundraisers and tried to recruit more students in the past couple of years, but the hope is that the threat of closing will spur more to donate.
Kristi Coughlin, 44, of Justice, is the mother of Mount Assisi sophomore, Taylor Coughlin, and said she would do whatever it takes to keep the school open. People were signing petitions Monday night to keep the school open.
"I'm out here so we can show everybody that we want to keep Mount Assisi open, if they let us, if they give us a chance," Coughlin said. "We're out here, and we're going to stay out here and rally."
Debbie Wlodarski, of Tinley Park, a 1979 graduate of Mount Assisi, said she hoped that God would answer their prayers.
"I'm out here just to show the support and love for the students, parents, staff, nuns and alumni," Wlodarski said.
"I'm just thinking that God watches out for all of us and blesses us in this difficult time in transition. ... Maybe something positive will come up and get some students that will commit to (attend the school) to keep the school open."

This scheme involves mailing an unsolicited check to various shoppers, and requesting that they deposit the check, withdraw a set amount, and wire this amount by way of Western Union to a location in South Africa.

The shopping instructions reference our actual President, Robert Sinclair, and our accountant, James Rightmire, but it is a scam. if you carry out the instructions, you will be wiring your own money to crooks outside of the country, as well as earning hefty bank fees from your own financial instutution for depositing a invalid check.

February has had so many lovely warm days, mixed with some fleeting snow. We're taking advantage of the dry, sunny stretches to plant strawberries, raspberries and blackberries. We're also treating our berries to a heavy spring application of mulch to control weeds and conserve moisture. This is also the time of year to check our irrigation equipment – just unfurl your hoses to check for damage. Be prepared – a dry spring may be right around the corner. We're busy spreading compost and tilling our garden beds to be ready when outdoor planting begins in earnest next month.
In the greenhouse, we're continuing to sow lettuce, scallions, and broccoli. We're sowing lettuce successions about once a week now. As the light increases and temperatures warm, the plants grow a lot faster, and we have to sow more often if we want to always have fresh, sweet lettuce for the table. We find that sowing lettuce about once a week works well for us most of the year, we just harvest some of it a bit young, and some of it fully mature. (We do sow more often in the fall, when we want lots of lettuce to be about the same age for over-wintering under row-cover.)
With the mild winter we're adventurously starting some extra early tomatoes, peppers and eggplant. If the ground warms up early this year, we'll be set to take advantage. If the spring is cold, we'll just have extra potting up to do.
Out in the garden, we're sowing our spring spinach and early root crops (radishes, turnips, beets, and carrots). We cover these early sowings with Reemay for extra warmth. This also helps the seeds germinate quickly and stay ahead of the weeds. Beet seeds can be sown in cool soils, but they can be slow to germinate. Help speed them along by soaking the seeds for 1-2 hours before you sow them. And beet seeds like lots of pressure, so tamp down the soil really well after sowing (some people will even walk over their beet sowings).
We're also getting our cool-season legume crops underway. We have to be timely with these sowings, because spring heats up so quickly. The last day to sow favas on our farm is 3/14. The tasty pods stop forming once temperatures warm up, so you may need to get yours in the ground even earlier. We know the ground is warm enough to sow our peas when the Forsythia blooms, but we make doubly sure by pre-sprouting the pea seeds.
Pre-sprouted peas can give your plants a whole week's head start, and the seeds are less likely to dry out or rot. To pre-sprout your pea seeds, simply soak them overnight, then drain them and place them in a large bowl, covered with a damp cloth, in a cool place. Every twelve hours you should rinse them with fresh water and drain. Just keep the seeds moist and very soon you should see tiny roots emerging. The trick is to not let the sprouts get too far along: the roots should be less than one centimeter long. Otherwise it's too easy to damage the fragile young plants.

World champion Michael Schumacher insists his retirement at round one in Australia has only hardened his resolve to score a stronger result at this weekends Malaysian Grand Prix.
Schumacher crashed out in Melbourne on lap 42 following a collision with compatriot Nick Heidfeld, but the German was buoyed by team mate Rubens Barrichellos strong drive through the field to second and is confident he has the pace to challenge for victory at Sepang, where he has won three times in the last five years.
"For sure, zero points in the season's first race is not what I expected, he said. "This, naturally, will give me an extra boost in Malaysia. From what we saw in Australia, the F2004 M was still competitive, much more than thought possible.
I think that we can expect a positive result in Sepang. Rubens proved that it is possible to finish highly even after a so-so qualifying session. I have faith because we were very consistent in the Grand Prix."
Neither Schumacher nor Barrichello returned to Europe following the Australian race, instead leaving testing duties to Luca Badoer and Marc Gene. Schumacher chose to spend a few days with wife Corrina and his manager Willi Weber, while Barrichello returned to his native Sao Paulo. Both men, of course, maintained their strict training regimes in preparation for the rigours of the Malaysian heat.
Like his team mate, Barrichello too is confident for the Sepang race, though he admitted that the new one engine-two weekend rule could make life interesting, especially since Schumacher changed engine in Melbourne, putting the two drivers on slightly different schedules for Malaysia.
In a way, people are having to work for two races at a time, rather than working on the limit for one, so in Sepang we will see how the cars really perform, said the Brazilian. This is the real test. I have a certain mileage on my engine and I will have to look after it. It is an unknown for us.
Michael has less mileage on his engine so he will probably be able to run more laps in free practice. But we operate as a team at Ferrari and so that will be good for me too. Over the course of the year, managing the situation if me and Michael end up out of synchronisation in terms of whether we are doing our first or second race with the same engine will be an interesting situation.
Ferrari have a strong record at Sepang, with at least one car on the podium every year since the race joined the calendar in 1999. Last season Schumacher took victory with Barrichello finishing fourth.

Antioch was organized on Sept. 13, 1873.
A group of individuals first began meeting in the home of Daniel Grooms. Some of the people came "presenting letters of commendation or by a personal acquaintance."
Early records include the following organizational statement:
"In coming together as a congregation of Christ having already been immersed upon a profession of our faith in the Lor Jesus Christ as the only begottne Son of God, we declare it to be oru full purpose and determination to acknowledge no leader but Christ, no infallible teachrs but the apostles and prophets, and no articles of belief but the Old and New Testaments' the New Testament as containing our faith and the rule of our behavior as Christians."
The 10 charter members of the church were Samuel Yates, Daniel Grooms, Sarah Grooms, Mary T. Yates, John E. Griffith, Mary L. Griffith, Nancy Griffith, Letty Frazier, Melissa Jane White and John S. Waters.
The church is located on Bates Pike in Old Fort.

You will not miss the land you left behind while you are aboard the Gorilla Yacht, for the designer has specially incorporated a generous courtyard that's lush with plant life. The 73-meter-long motorboat has sufficient space to accommodate 18 people, providing the eight staff with wonderful comforts and the 10 guests of honor with surprising luxuries.
Most notable is the gorgeous atrium in the center of the deck, surrounded by walls and shaded by a helicopter pad up above. It remains open to the fresh sea air and the sun; however, the garden can be covered with a glass roof if the weather is unfavorable. You'll notice a swimming pool at the back of Johann Szebeni's Gorilla Yacht and a 13-square meter balcony abuts the expansive 97-square-meter master bedroom.

Marketing is expected to begin in September.
Chicago is the No. 2 source of the 35,000 individuals who visit the Tucson Canyon Ranch each year, giving its brand an advantage.
"They definitely will have name recognition here," Lissner said.
Rubloff Residential Properties President James Kinney, whose firm is marketing a competing building, the Residences at the Ritz-Carlton, agreed that health benefits could be the difference.
However, he noted, the timing, especially in waiting for a "wellness lifestyle" that won't be accessible for four years, is difficult.

Maternal, Newborn and Child Health Should be National Priority: Health Experts
October 16, 2012
Maternal, Newborn and Child Health (MNCH) should be a national priority, and political parties should include it in their manifestoes said speakers at the second session of a series of seminars on reproductive, maternal, newborn and child health (RMNCH) and nutrition, organised by Aga Khan University's Division of Women and Child Health, with the support of United States Agency for International Development (USAID).
Dr Feroz Memon, DG Health, Sindh, appreciated the advocacy seminars and assured that Sindh Health Department would fully consider the recommendations in the policy-making process. "By establishing the Health Sector Reforms Unit, Sindh Health Department has shown that the department is sincere and committed in improving the health conditions in the province," he said.Addressing the session, Dr Sadiqua Jafarey, President, National Council of Maternal and Neonatal Health, highlighted the poor status of maternal health and skilled birth attendance in Pakistan. She also gave figures on how poverty and lack of education go hand in hand. "According to Pakistan Demographic and Health Survey 2006-2007, the poor and the rural population are the hardest hit. Majority of the mothers and newborns are dying during labour and within the first 24 hours of delivery," she said.Dr Zulfiqar Bhutta, Chair, Division of Women and Child Health, AKU, outlined the challenges, determinants and current inequities based on poverty and residence. Focusing specifically on Sindh, he said the people in the province are very welcoming towards health improvements and the ground is fertile for implementation. He stressed that there are enormous opportunities for increasing the efficiency of programmes addressing MNCH and nutrition in Sindh.Dr Bhutta recommended six packages of care covering pre-conceptual and post-abortion care, antenatal care, childbirth and immediate newborn care, postnatal care, expanded nutrition package, and expanded immunisation package. He said that the packages could save over 70 per cent of maternal, newborn and child deaths.Speaking on reproductive health, Dr Farid Midhet of the College of Medicine, Qassim University, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, expressed grave concerns over the stagnant indicators in Pakistan compared to its neighbouring countries. "Pakistan has a very large, young population with little schooling and few jobs, which is contributing to instability and a serious law and order situation in the country. While population and health departments have been devolved to the provinces under the 18th Amendment, the decentralisation seems to have had little or no positive impact on these two sectors. Instead, their performance appears to have deteriorated over the last two years," he said.Dr Nabeela Ali, Chief of Party, USAID Technical Assistance Unit for Health, highlighted the urgent need to address the governance and budgetary issues that hamper progress. She pointed out that private sector is neglected and largely unregulated, and that public private partnership was not optimally utilised.The seminar was also addressed by Sindh Government officials, including Dr Sahib Jan Badar, Manager, MNCH Programme; Dr Suresh Kumar, Additional Secretary Health; and Kiran Nauman, Additional Secretary Development.Representatives from political parties, civil society organisations and religious parties attended the workshop to ensure broad based discussions and consensus on RMNCH issues.The seminars are intended to build consensus on innovative, cost-effective and sustainable interventions and implementation strategies that can improve maternal, newborn and child health conditions in Pakistan.Similar seminar was held in Peshawar a day before and another one is to be held in Lahore, to share the national and relevant provincial analysis, and to develop awareness around desired outcomes to address population issues, family planning and nutrition in Pakistan in addition to longstanding governance issues.A final dissemination meeting is to be held in Islamabad in December this year. The outcomes of the seminars are to be shared with the national level political leadership, members of Senate and outgoing parliament as well as relevant federal authorities for political commitment – and funding – is needed for any real improvements in maternal, newborn and child health, and nutrition.

Statistical Process Control, or SPC for short, has been around since the 1920s although it didn't really gain widespread use in industry until the 1980s. Many people are immediately turned off of SPC just because it has "statistical" in its name. However, by simply understanding a few basic concepts of variation (why things are not ALWAYS made exactly the same) you will be able to leverage the concepts of SPC to monitor and control your manufacturing processes.
Our Statistical Process Control (SPC) Resource Center has lots of helpful information for people just learning about SPC as well as some interesting information that folks who have been using SPC for years should find interesting.
Many of these forms can be downloaded as Excel Spreadsheets or Word Docs
Is there a difference between being in-control and in-spec? Yes there is, and it is a big difference. You can be in-spec but not in-control. And you can be in-control but not in-spec.
So, if you can have only one, which is better - being in-spec or in-control? Some may say "in-spec of course." But unless the spec is very generous and forgiving, you will always be better off with a process that is in-control, but not completely in-spec. Obviously neither is the ideal situation - but there is a fundamental problem with a process that is in-spec, but not in-control. The problem is that you never know from one minute to the next if it will go out-of-spec. This means that you must inspect every part or product that is made - otherwise, how will you know that the product is still in-spec?
So, what is the advantage of a process that is in-control but not in-spec? Let's assume that at least some of the product being made by this in-control process is in-spec. Given that some of the process output is in-spec and the process is in-control, we can actually statistically calculate how much of the product will be out-of-spec.
Of course, the goal is to have a process that is both in-control and in-spec - that is what we call a capable and centered process. What if you have a process that is in-control, but not in-spec? By using SPC, root cause analysis, and some common sense, an in-control process can usually be brought in-spec.
How do you know if your processes are in-control? A good first step to take is to create a histogram of your data and then analyze the pattern of variation to identify possible reasons for the pattern. A control chart is really just an extension of a histogram. Not only does it show you the pattern of variation, but it plots that pattern over time.

The repurchase market and shadow banking: An introduction
By Mary Fricker
Covering the repurchase market is not hard at all. We reporters just have to start asking different questions when we write business stories.
In addition to asking what a company, financial institution or other organization does to make a profit – for example, make mortgages, sell cars, grow corn, manufacture widgets, manage investments, run governments, or make business loans – we have to ask where they're getting the money to operate.
In other words, in addition to asking where money goes to, we need to ask where it comes from.
Often, the money is borrowed. We should write about that, which means we'll be reporting on the credit markets. Hooray.
As we look at borrowings, we will sometimes find that the organization gets money by getting repurchase loans. Or we may find that it's borrowing from a financial institution that gets money by getting repurchase loans. Often, the chain of debt will go back to the repurchase market.
And if we look at what the organization does with its cash, we may find that it's earning interest by making repurchase loans.
This is not hard work. Repurchase agreements are listed on financial statements and elaborated upon in the notes. We just need to understand what we're seeing.
What we're seeing are very short-term loans that the lenders can withdraw in a flash, often overnight, leaving the borrower desperate for cash flow and headed for bankruptcy. Think Bear Stearns, Countrywide, Lehman Brothers and Long-Term Capital Management.
Here's how a repurchase loan works: The borrower puts up securities as collateral, gets cash from the lender, and promises to repay the loan soon – to "repurchase" the securities – often the next day.
That's it. This is not rocket science.
An introduction
Story ideas
Tips for localizing
Repo borrowers have securities and want cash. Repo lenders have cash and want to use it to make money. Often participants in the repurchase market are both borrowers and lenders.
In 2007 and 2008, repo lenders lost faith in the ballooning pile of mortgage securities they were taking as collateral, and then they lost faith in the borrowers. They started calling their repo loans and stopped other short-term lending. Almost overnight, credit markets ground toward a halt, thrusting the economy into the worst recession since the Great Depression. Now that's a great story.
I like to think that if we business reporters had been looking at where mortgage lenders were suddenly getting all that money to make home loans, we would have seen they were getting a lot of it by borrowing very short term – mainly getting repo loans and selling asset-backed commercial paper – and we would have warned our readers about the danger.
Footnote: If this can happen with repo, it can happen with any other large financial market built on short-term debt (except deposits that have FDIC insurance). We must keep a critical eye for exuberant growth in any short-term credit instruments. We do this by covering the credit markets on a daily basis, by always understanding where the organizations on our beats are getting their money.

Lynch syndrome, an autosomal dominant multicancer disorder, is the most common form of hereditary colorectal cancer, has a prevalence of 0.9% to 2.7%,1 and also accounts for approximately 2.3% of all endometrial cancers.2 However, patients with Lynch syndrome are frequently unrecognized because family history is often not fully assessed, and patients most commonly have few or no colorectal polyps, as opposed to the more easily identifiable polyposis syndromes. Patients with Lynch syndrome present with cancer at a relatively young age and they are at a higher risk of developing more than 1 type of cancer. The most common extracolonic tumors arise from the endometrium, stomach, ovary, small bowel, and urinary tract.3

Can type 2 diabetes be reversed by diet?
A UK research study has shown an extreme low calorie diet can reverse type 2 diabetes. But not all experts agree with the findings. Type 2 diabetes results from the body's ineffective use of insulin and is often linked to excess body weight and physical inactivity. Cardiovascular disease, blindness and amputation are among the serious complications associated with the condition. The small Newcastle University study involved 11 volunteers who had all developed diabetes later in life. They were fed 600 calories of liquid diet drinks and non-starchy vegetables each day for eight weeks. The researchers found that after just seven days before breakfast blood sugar levels had returned to normal for all 11 people. A special MRI scan of their pancreas also revealed that the fat levels in the pancreas had returned from an elevated level to normal (from around 8% to 6%). The 11 volunteers were then given advice on portion size and healthy eating and allowed to resume a normal diet. They were followed-up three months later and seven volunteers remained free of diabetes. In a media release head of the research team, Professor Roy Taylor, says the findings are a radical change in understanding type 2 diabetes. He said:
"While it has long been believed that someone with type 2 diabetes will always have the disease, and that it will steadily get worse, we have shown that we can reverse the condition." "We believe this shows that type 2 diabetes is all about energy balance in the body, if you are eating more than you burn, then the excess is stored in the liver and pancreas as fat which can lead to type 2 diabetes in some people. What we need to examine further is why some people are more susceptible to developing diabetes than others."
Despite the dramatic results some experts are skeptical of a long-term reversal. In an interview with the ABC, Dr Alan Barclay head of research at the Australian Diabetes Council said: "It's a remission of the symptoms, which is great and certainly should be encouraged, but because diabetes is a metabolic disease, it's not something you catch, it will come back again if you go back to your old lifestyle habits." In a BBC report Professor Edwin Gale, a diabetes expert from the University of Bristol, says rapid weight loss and reduced diabetes symptoms is not new to researchers in the field. He said:
"We have known that starvation is a good cure for diabetes. If we introduced rationing tomorrow, then we could get rid of diabetes in this country. "If you can catch people with diabetes in the early stages while beta cells are still functioning, then you can delay its onset for years, but you will get it sooner or later because it's in the system."
A recent study in the Netherlands also adds some weight to this viewpoint. In the study researchers looked at data on 424 people with Type 2 diabetes who received gastric-bypass surgery and 211 who received gastric banding surgery. Time Heathland reports:
In their analysis, the researchers found that 83% of gastric bypass patients and 62% of the banding patients were able to stop taking medication for their diabetes within a few days of surgery. Even at one- and two-year follow ups, those patients remained off medication. However, for many, the diabetes reversal was short-lived. By the 10-year follow up, only 36% of all patients were able to maintain normal blood glucose levels without medicine.
The Newcastle University researchers agree that follow-up research is needed to explore these issues. In the meantime, 67-year-old Gordon Parmley from Northumberland, who took part in the Newcastle University study, is pleased to be off his diabetes medication. He also warns that the diet was hard going and describes his experience in the Newcastle media release:
"When my doctor mentioned the trial I thought I would give it a go as it might help me and other diabetics. I came off my tablets and had three diet shakes a day and some salad or vegetables but it was very, very difficult and I'm not sure I'd have done it without the support of my wife who went on a diet alongside me. At first the hunger was quite severe and I had to distract myself with something else – walking the dog, playing golf – or doing anything to occupy myself and take my mind off food but I lost an astounding amount of weight in a short space of time. At the end of the trial, I was told my insulin levels were normal and after six years, I no longer needed my diabetes tablets. Still today, 18 months on, I don't take them. It's astonishing really that a diet – hard as it was – could change my health so drastically. After six years of having diabetes I can tell the difference – I feel better, even walking round the golf course is easier."
Dr Iain Frame, Director of Research at Diabetes UK, welcomed the results of the research but used the Newcastle University media release to warn "this diet is not an easy fix and Diabetes UK strongly recommends that such a drastic diet should only be undertaken under medical supervision." Recent World health Organisation (WHO) calculations indicate that approximately 220 million people have diabetes worldwide and almost 3 million deaths per year are attributable to diabetes. WHO are predicting that diabetes deaths will double between 2005 and 2030. The Newcastle University study was funded by Diabetes UK and recently published in the journal Diabetologia.

Learner Objective: Explain social learning theory making reference to relevant studies
Article: Toddlers Beat the Great Apes at Social Learning
Researchers from the Max Planck Institute have been studying the connection between apes and humans. They compared the skills of two & half-year-old children to those of chimps and orangutans ranging in age from 3 to 21 years old. They found that children and apes are equally good at numerical and spatial skills, but when it comes to social learning (social learning theory) the children were far better than the apes. For example, toddlers learned how to open a container by watching the experimenter and copying them. However, the apes didn't imitate. They made connections but for the most part used trial and error. The researchers explain that imitation is a fast way to aquire knowledge and allowed humans to develop the complex social culture we have today. This article relates to class and the social learning theory by further explaining the work done by Bandura.
I thought this was a great article to use because as I said before, it further explains Bandura's theory and also gives more recent information. I find it very interesting that there is so much similarity between apes and humans so this article also fulfilled some personal interest as well.
Visual #4:
I thought this picture was helpful to the article. This shows a human child and ape both eating. From this picture it appears the ape is also still using his fingers in addition to the spoon but it also shows that the ape and human child are both able to use utensils, an action learned from parents.

I need to replace the window coverings in the bedroom my school age boys share. The original cellulars have finally broken after many years. I am considering curtains or roman shades in a solid or simple stripe. The room colors are mostly navy (furniture) and tan (walls and rug). Dark brown accents and sometimes bright green or orange in bedding depending on season. There is a sightline to these windows from my dining/living room and front door so I want something decent looking.
Here is the room: If romans - what color? I am a lightaholic so navy seems too dark? Tan? If curtains - what length? To bottom of window? Thanks for input... |

Some options I have considered.. I find myself drawn to rugby stripe shades but they seem impractical.

Hi domino3, okay i know you are just looking for curtain advice but if you don't mind i have two comments. 1) it looks like the boy's "bunk" bed can be broken in to two beds, since your boys are at school age now, have you thought about splitting the beds and placing one below each window. i attach a pic below for inspiration. you could then use a dresser between the beds as shown or maybe the desk you now have would fit in there. 2) with boys, whatever age, i tend to stick to roman blinds either mounted within or on the window molding (again an idea is shown in the attached picture) - there is just less risk of them "removing" themselves from the wall by an enthusiastic tug or pull. I like your idea of stripes - it will be a nice clean 'punchy' look with your neutral wall color and look good from a distance - although when it comes to kids rooms, i find that the bedroom door is the best line of defense between their room and your senses! |

oh, i think we were posting at the same time - i like the rugby stripe - they have it in a roman shade too (navy/red and navy/green).... as you say more practical than the panels... |
I like these inside mount roman shades better than panels, I think, especially for kids. http://www.potterybarnkids.com/products/twill-roman-shade-boy/?cm_src=AutoRel |

OK - 2 votes for romans! What color? Khaki? design_wotcha - I would LOVE to put the beds under the windows - it's a great look, but the room is a bit too small to make it work. There is a (outswinging)closet door on the left wall that couldn't open properly if I put a bed there. And the clearance to get in and out of the room would be tight. Thanks! |
- Posted by AnnieDeighnaugh (My Page) on Mon, Jul 30, 12 at 21:14
You've gotten great suggestions...only thing I wonder about roman blinds is what to do about the cords so they don't become an issue (as boys will be boys). But the blinds will leave the needed wall space....curtains would cover up quite a bit of that wall. Only other alternative I would think of would be valances with room darkening roller shades underneath. Just curious....in the picture, what is that box that's mounted under the left window sill? |

My youngest has plantation shutters on his front facing window. ODS has two smaller windows with white wood blinds and navy curtain panels that go to the floor. He has a queen 4 poster cannonball bed with the PB Kids madras quilt. |
Annie - thanks for the link. They are old enough (9 and 12) not to strangle I think. I have cordless in DD's room and I actually find them difficult for big windows. The mystery box is one of DS's inventions. We had a beanbag chair in that corner for a while and he made (and installed) his own mini book shelf while I was distracted! porkandham - I love plantations and wood blinds! Your boys rooms sound very classic. |
In small rooms plantation shutters can be a problem. You need to open the shudder to open and close the windows which may mean having to move furniture to open. Not too convenient |

BlizzCon 2009: How far along is the development of Cataclysm? {WoW}
Aug 23rd 2009 2:02PM I actualy LoLd when i read ur post Shelyndis if u think they havent been alpha testing for monthes thats just insane where do u think all those old leaks came from famly and friends who were testing and some one stated that they thought patch 3.2.2 would last us over till december or january. its 1 boss!!!!!!!! that wont keep anyone busy for that long im expecting 3.2.2 to last MAYBE a month putting us at october/november before ICC comes out heres how it looks
Sept 8 ( 2nd tuesday) ony comes out ( this may not seem like long but they really dont need ALL that long to get her up to level 80 they dont need to make spells or such) they fix the whole (ret?) pali issue for arena season since it wouldint be good to wait till a later date then arena start point OP bad
Oct 20 27 or Nov 3 Icc is now opened (possibly by tremors that are caused from deathwings attept at escape from deepholm) a week or so in the best guilds clear out the lich king and his 12 other bosses so well then give the rest of the guilds 3-4 monthes to clear it all.
Cataclysm early january to late febuary ( i believe it will be out this soon because
A. the video+pics show that they have done a good deal of work on this.
B. its been in progress a long while and i ( i have no experience makeing games) imagine itll be faster to make 8 SMALLER zones ( since when have starting zones been even close to some of the northrend zones) and make the old zones flyable and looking good whith the doomsday look.
C. (at least in Vermont) january and febuary are still full of snow so they still get the people inside alot while probly keeping people busy throught the summer with the high end raids and just exploreing the new content.
D. If they dont release this by ATLEAST march maybe febuary i can see them losing tons of people and if it is NEXT november as some one stated they could lose millions. that dosent seem like blizzes plan.
okay im losing focus now but 1 last thing Wotlk pritty much sucked. I think of cataclysm as kinda Damedge control there gonna wana shoot that out FAST vannali wow had a long period of time between it and BC because it was god same with BC and Wotlk ( and they did Sunwell which they cant with lichking) so expect it sooner then u think

We haven't had a land line in years, but I wonder if I should put in the wiring and plate for one when we remodel the kitchen. If so, where is a good place? The phone jack that is there now is in the backsplash of the long run of countertop, for the kind of phone that hangs on the wall, but as I recall, it either wasn't a good location or something. I don't remember really liking it there. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Yes, we are still wired. Have one in the office, and a portable extension in the kitchen... also one in the basement. Phone service is bundled with cable and computer. Part of the benefit is free unlimited long distance. I still feel a regular handset is far, far more comfortable to hold while talking than cell phones. |
- Posted by lavender_lass (My Page) on Mon, Feb 28, 11 at 11:55
Yes, because we live in a little valley and cell phone reception is very poor, or even non-existent. It's also nice to have a landline, in case you forget to charge your cell phone or someone is visiting and needs to get to a phone, in an emergency. My mom has her phone jack, by the little seating area in her kitchen. It's a good location and easy to access. She also put in one, by the bed, since she lives alone. In case of an emergency, she can call, without looking for her cell phone. Hope that helps :) |
- Posted by moccasinlanding (My Page) on Mon, Feb 28, 11 at 11:57
Marti, I suppose we have a landline, but it is coming through the cable modem. It has a battery backup to keep it running for 8 hours if the power fails, I think they said. So the main phone connection is in the living room baseboard, where the regular phone plug was located and the cable coax came through the floor under the south-facing window. This is adjacent to the fireplace, and we have our main TV sitting on the mantle. (We tried to wall-mount, but could not find studs that would let us center it properly, so we gave up and sat it on the mantle, secured by a lanyard/steel cable to the nearest stud. That being said, I also have TWO satellite phone sets that plug into the power and they are on my side of the bed (DH cannot hear), and here on my desk, currently located in the dining room...adjacent to the living room, but the setup came with two extra phones so I plugged 'em in. I once had a wall phone in the kitchen at MoccasinLanding. It was on the wall beside my countertop bar, and I could sit there and chat, walk around with it cradled on my shoulder as I was cooking, pick it up easily from the wide passageway if I was in the living room (without having it in there). The only other phone unit I had there was a direct wired set beside my bed. Of course, this was before I snapped to cell phones. I've had my same phone number for almost 40 years, and I suppose I got used to that number. The only reason I'd keep the wiring and one wired set (not one plugged into power, but direct wired) would be to keep it for 911 emergencies. Even if you discontinue a landline service, phones wired to them, as I understand it, can still convey an emergency call to 911. You are probably not soon moving to consider that a new owner would consider it great if you had footed the bill for the wiring. Which is a great inconvenience to do from scratch and sometimes costly. So if you got it, keep it, even if you turn off the service. If you are redoing the kitchen including some wiring, I'd consider putting a wall mount clip-in connection very close to the main kitchen wall switch. Maybe beside the back door? But not in the backsplash. A short curly cord would keep it from being in the way. Of course, even the wired phones these days have a cordless set in the cradle sometimes. But don't defeat the purpose of having a way to call 911 at any time. I'm probably out of date here, others may be able to update this. It is a good question to ask, because so many of us, including our house, want to make life simpler and cheaper. |
- Posted by writersblock (My Page) on Mon, Feb 28, 11 at 12:00
Yes, absolutely. After a hurricane only landlines work, so living in a hurricane zone I wouldn't be without one. Right now, though, that's the biggest nuisance in the renovation plans. The main outlet, the one they say must stay, is on a passthrough we plan to remove. Unfortunately the line enters the house there and moving it will involve either channeling through the slab to get it over to the wall or else having the wiring totally redone. Don't need or want an outlet in the kitchen, since we have a base station upstairs and just cordless extensions downstairs, but we may wind up having to keep that outlet and go to the expense of moving it. |
- Posted by nancy_in_mich (My Page) on Mon, Feb 28, 11 at 18:54
Like the others, we do still have a landline, but ours is also through the cable TV. We have a total of 6 cordless phones hooked to it, plus two hard-wired phones and a fax machine! We had a set of three cordless phones that operated off of one base, and as they got old, the batteries failed. DH went out and bought a new version of the same brand of phones, but these phones just don't work as well. When I discovered that the old ones simply needed new batteries, which were available, I replaced the original batteries and we now have two sets of three cordless phones. Meanwhile, DH was unemployed for 7 months a couple of years ago, and we found the fax machine on Craigslist, so got it for easier faxing (sending faxes through the PC never has worked that well for us). Then there are the two hard-wired landlines. One is in the smaller bedroom - now the sauna/craft room. It is there simply because there was a phone wire coming up through the floor when we moved in. We also had a hard wired phone line put into Dad's room (second bedroom) for safety and convenience while he was alive. You know what? We still can never find a phone when it rings. |
We still have a landline. Currently it's in my backsplash in my prep area in my small kitchen. If I could, I would have it moved somewhere less obtrusive visually. |
I'd like to put it at the end of the refrigerator cabinet, which is next to the door to the hall. But dh wants to put it near the bar, even though I don't plan on putting any barstools there. |

We have three phone jacks and have cordless phones hooked to all. The kitchen one is on the counter in the corner by dinning room. I can reach it from either living room or kitchen. Also the one in living room is only 10 foot away but we need it here so we do not have to get p when phone rings. Then one in our bedroom. I also have a direct wired phone handy if needed when the power goes out. I do not keep it plugged in as I use it on my studio computer to make Magic Jack calls. We had a kitchen phone at the last house at the end of the upper cabinets just on the edge or close to cabinet. Seemed to be a handy spot. I would think having a phone line by the bar would make the phone easy to reach from your living room side when needed. Assuming you do not already have a phone in that room.also by your door way sounds good. I would do both if possible. Phone line is so inexpensive. I am all for lots of phones and jacks. They are very expensive after the fact. |
We have two cordless phones, and one landline that is located in the guest bedroom. I insisted we keep a landline in case of a power outage. Of course, we have switched our phone service to a package through the cable company, so if cable goes--there goes our landline. D'OH! |
- Posted by moccasinlanding (My Page) on Tue, Mar 1, 11 at 9:18
Shelayne, the cable company told me that if power goes out to the cable phone, it will work off its battery for up to 8 hours. I don't know what kind of battery it has, but if it is AA or AAA, then it could be replaced when it runs down. With hurricane season only 2 months away, I will be peeking at the battery in their system. And failing that, making a call to Tech Service for information. |
- Posted by momtotwinboys (My Page) on Tue, Mar 1, 11 at 10:41
WE have a line, but no phone. When we start our remodel this month, we are getting rid of it. We haven't had a serious power outage in the 5 years since without a landline, though I have had to call 911 and it was no problem. We keep a super inexpensive cell phone charged at all times in the kitchen, just in case a babysitter etc.. needs a phone. |
- Posted by writersblock (My Page) on Tue, Mar 1, 11 at 11:53
>it will work off its battery for up to 8 hours Interesting, and very different from comcast here. When the cable goes out, so do the phones, although they still have battery power. Just no signal. |
- Posted by oldgardener_2009 (My Page) on Wed, Mar 2, 11 at 14:46
We have a land line, outlets in kitchen and master bedroom. |
I've been cell only for years, so the existing spots don't affect me. However, the phone line (and cable) is in the weirdest places in public spaces. The previous owner...the Renter, actually...(bachelor, electronic dude) re-ran the lines & locations for the sole purpose of his home theater / gadget placement. And he used the living room as the dining...and dining as living. That doesn't work for me. I have a 1942 house with a built-in phone nook / phone book slot. If I wanted a landline, I would pay whatever money necessary to run the phone line back to that old phone nook. It's a good location at the center of the house in a hall. It's not out in your face. The whole thing is just charming. If we were still in the day of corded phones, I would hate the phone nook spot. You'd be trapped in the hall on the phone. Cordless changed the world. Gayle |
- Posted by shades_of_idaho (My Page) on Thu, Mar 3, 11 at 11:04
We had a couple of houses with the phone nooks. I thought they were so cute. Agree the cordless phone have made a huge difference. Same with wireless internet and lap tops. |
Yes, the future is coming, and you want to be WIRED for it. Hardwires will always be more secure than WiFi, and even if you have no plans for those phone jacks presently, you never know... plus, there probably will be a next owner, someday... Wire those jacks with at least Cat5 cable, maybe Cat6? At the very least it allows you to tell the cable co. to take a hike, as necessary. Plus I believe "phone nooks" are where the word "nookie" comes from... I kid, I'm a kidder... ;') |
