Policies and Procedures
- Section VII - 1.10(A) UMB SUBSTANCE ABUSE POLICY
(Approved by the President, August 1990)
PURPOSE: The UMB Substance Abuse Policy is designed to: (1) observe state executive orders and State and Federal laws; (2) promote a campus free of illegal drug use; (3) stress moderation, safety, and individual accountability by those who choose to drink alcohol; (4) provide a campus atmosphere free of coercion for those who choose not to drink alcohol; (5) maintain a community where the effects of abuse are minimal and where problem behavior is reduced; (6) provide information and education on the health risks associated with drug and alcohol abuse; and (7) provide confidential and effective guidance and counseling for those with special needs related to substance abuse.
SCOPE: This policy applies to all faculty, staff and students of the University of Maryland, Baltimore. The University of Maryland, Baltimore, as an institution dedicated to the study of medical, legal and social problems and issues and the development of professionals in these fields, recognizes its role in establishing itself as a model to the community, the State of Maryland and the nation in the effort to promote a campus free of drug and alcohol abuse.
BACKGROUND: Substance abuse is a serious national crisis which has had a detrimental effect on the lives of many of our citizens, and has exerted a negative effect on the operation of academic institutions. Every university experiences a loss of productivity due to drug and alcohol related absenteeism, injuries on the job, decreased work quality and wasted dollars. Substance abusing employees and students function below established standards, may make impaired decisions, may have negative effects on their co-workers and peers, and are not as alert as non-using employees and students. The illegal use of the University campus as a marketplace for drugs endangers the health, safety and welfare of all individuals associated with the campus. Every university must maintain an environment which eliminates this waste and supports the health, well-being and productivity of all its employees and students as they carry out their responsibilities. A campus free of substance abuse is fundamental to promote efficient, effective and responsive education, research and service.
HEALTH RISKS: Substance abuse is recognized as the number one public health problem in the United States. Approximately 30% of all admissions to general hospitals and 50% to psychiatric hospitals have detectable substance abuse. Substance abuse accounts for approximately 150,000 deaths annually. This includes deaths from stroke, disease of the heart and liver, and all alcohol and drug related suicides, homicides and accidents. Early detection can minimize or prevent the devastating consequences of substance abuse.
DEFINITIONS: In this policy, the following words have the meanings indicated:
A. "Substance" means alcohol and/or drugs.
B. "Alcohol" means ethyl alcohol (ethanol).
C. "Drugs" means any substance, including controlled dangerous substances but excluding alcohol, that when taken into the body may impair one's mental faculties or cause changes in mood and/or physical performance.

4. Use of any prescription drug in a manner inconsistent with its medically prescribed, intended use, or under circumstances where use is not permitted.
E. "Campus" means a UMB premise owned or utilized for official UMB business.
F. "Employee" refers to faculty, associate staff and classified regular, contractual, temporary or if-and-when-needed appointees.
G. "Student" refers to any individual enrolled at UMB either full-time or part-time, regardless of the length of the program of study.

Aussie nurse rolls with Lance Armstrong
By Karen Keast |
Last Updated: 19-11-2013
Healthcare Australia nurse Chris Green and Lance Armstrong Chris Green has the best of both worlds. The South Australian nurse splits his time between working for champion cyclist Lance Armstrong and as an agency nurse with Healthcare Australia. Chris, who was born and raised in the United Kingdom, has been a nurse for 20 years and now divides his time between his new home in the south of France, where he works for Armstrong's cycling team, and Adelaide, where he works in acute care nursing. To mark International Nurses Week, from May 6-12, the Healthcare Australia nurse opened up about how he combines his amazing dual careers and his success at achieving work-life balance. Chris, who will return to Europe to prepare for the Tour de France in the next few weeks, first met Armstrong when he made his comeback to cycling in Adelaide in 2009. "I was asked to guide him and his team on their training rides during the Tour Down Under," he said. "As a fluent French speaker and cyclist, I provided the team with the ability to maximise their training rides before the Tour Down Under. "Each time Lance has been to Australia I have been charged with looking after him, his team and his family during their stay in Adelaide. "This involves taking Lance and the team out training as well as taking care of the logistics involved in ensuring the team sponsors and VIPs are catered for when they visit races." Last year, Chris was offered a full-time position on the team, prompting him to relocate his family to France. He has since worked on Armstrong's VIP and sponsor programs across Europe and the United States, spending time in Belgium, France, Italy, Spain, Luxembourg, Germany, Corsica, Sardinia, the UK and the United States, while taking part in the Tour of California and the Tour de France. As an agency nurse, Chris has the flexibility to work around his cycling schedule, picking up shifts when he is back in Australia in ICU, CCU, HDU and ED. Chris said he was thrilled to be able to combine his two passions. "Nursing is the most rewarding profession I could have chosen," he said. "Luckily, working as an agency nurse with Healthcare Australia I am able to pursue my passion for the cycling industry, as I can decide when and where I want to work." Chris said his nursing career had also equipped him with the essential skills needed for his elite cycling journey, including customer service and communication skills coupled with his ability to be responsive to the needs of others. "I strongly believe 20 years of nursing provided me with the perfect base to embark on this amazing opportunity," he said. Chris said it had taken courage, audacity and self-belief for him to grab hold of the once in a lifetime opportunity to join Armstrong's team. "Sometimes you need to dig deep, really deep, to achieve something special," he said. "I now try to inspire others to aim to fulfil their dreams and ambitions using my own experiences as an example of what can happen. "You have to go out there and make it happen. Even when something seems impossible, it isn't!" as

The network recently released Tennis Channel Plus, an online subscription service that offers hundreds of hours of live tennis, including ATP World Tour, WTA, Davis Cup and Fed Cup matches from 45 tournaments. Cost of the channel is $9.99 per day, or $59.99 per season, which runs through May 2015. The network offers an app which allows viewers to access on iOS and Android devices. The move by the Tennis Channel, which follows similar moves by the WWE and Major League Soccer, indicates that standalone live video streaming of more sports events could be coming sooner rather than later.

I customized this banner for my girlfriend for Valentine's day. She liked it very much because it was new and refreshing gift. She got a good laugh out of it with my customization. It's hanging on her wall now with 4 push pins (there are things on all corners for hanging, but push pin isn't quite large enough). The photo that I added is pretty decent quality, but don't expect it to come out like your regular 4X6 or 8X10 prints that you get. It is on a larger banner after all. But, my girlfriend and I are very satisfied with the quality.

The Salim Rajan overbridge is a step closer to completion as a 340-tonne steel girder was placed over the bridge's railway portion on Friday.
This girder, 46.80m long and 8.90m wide, does not have a middle span and is the longest one used in any railway overbridge in Kerala. The bridge, whic is located between the South and Pullepady bridges, would be opened to traffic by month-end, DMRC officials said.
The State government had handed over to Delhi Metro Rail Corporation the Rs 20-crore project, the Rs 70-crore project to rebuild and widen Ernakulam North overbridge and the widening of three major arterial roads in the city as part of Kochi Metro's preparatory works. The widened North bridge will be opened to traffic by year-end.
Approach roads
Kochi Corporation is yet to widen the bridge's approach road and curves near the KSRTC bus stand. It is feared that this would create traffic snarls near the stand and in Rajaji Road once the bridge is opened to vehicles.

Beecher "Ribbon of Hope" Cancer Awareness Garden Committee (front row) Susan Sebastian, Myra Kocsis, Christine Szymanski and Barbara Hodgett; (back row) Scott Wehling, Howard Perry, Michael Stanula and Dean Bettenhausen.
Updated: March 25, 2013 6:05AM
Dean Bettenhausen's dream to build a cancer awareness garden in Beecher is well on its way to reality.
Bettenhausen and a committee of seven others are raising funds for "Ribbon of Hope," a place of "reflection and renewal," for Beecher and its surrounding communities.
The village has set aside land for the garden at the far northwest corner of Fireman's Park.
Designed by architect Michael Stanula, the garden will be 35 feet in diameter and will feature a 14-foot metal ribbon on a six-sided base engraved with words of inspiration. The structure will be surrounded by steppingstone paths, trees, shrubbery, flowers and benches.
The interactive environment will be a tribute to cancer victims and survivors, offer support to their loved ones, and promote awareness as a daily reminder of the need to find a cure, the committee said.
The "Ribbon of Hope" committee is looking for monetary, material, labor and service donations. All donations to the garden will be used to build and maintain the site.
"The hope of finding a cure is very much in people's hearts. We all know someone who has fought the fight. I am confident Beecher and its surrounding communities will rally to support cancer awareness and our beautiful garden of reflection and inspiration will flourish," Bettenhausen said.
To make a donation, contact Bettenhausen at (708) 243-8877.

Search our investment portfolio
In 1994, we invested in ESAT Telecom, then the telecommunications interests of Communicorp Group, a diversified communications group with interests in Czech and Irish radio as well as telecoms.
Post investment, we recognised that the area of strongest potential within the business was its telecoms activities.
Led by an entrepreneurial and dynamic management team, ESAT's strategy of positioning itself as "Ireland's second carrier" against the only other operator in the market, Telecom Eireann, offering cheaper rate long-distance and international calls, proved extremely successful in winning customers and minute market share. Heavy investment in network construction followed and, in 1995, ESAT's consortium (ESAT Telecom) won the second Irish GSM licence against stiff competition, successfully attracting new convertible loan investors for its network build-out.
The GSM service was launched on time in Q1 1997 and rapidly captured market share. Critical to ensuring the ongoing success of the business was substantial investment in the continued build and roll-out of its network, decreasing its dependency on - and ultimately allowing it to bypass - Telecom Eireann. Our strategy was to take the company public, achieving a successful joint Nasdaq/Easdaq float in 1997 that valued the business at $78m, preceded earlier that year by an $85m high-yield debt offering.
The acquisition of EUnet Ireland, a corporate ISP, and Ireland's first ISP, followed in the same year, completing the transition of ESAT Telecom into Ireland's largest independent communications company providing long-distance and international voice and data, mobile and internet services. A highly attractive, strategic asset, ESAT Telecom was acquired in 2000 by British Telecom (BT).

By creating an account, you agree to our terms of service.
what's your attitude to smoking? is it "bad" or "not so much" for you? I'd like to "hear" your opinion.What about me, I won't to hide, I like smoking hookah (nargile, shisha). Especially in good places with my close friends.
Unhealthy Habit, and furthermore, Nicotine is one of the most addictive substances on Earth.
Won't argue with you. But someone thinks that it can help him when he gets depressed.
"But someone thinks that it can help him when he gets depressed."--------Anastasiya
There are 2 difficulties with that idea.
(A) What one THINKS is not necessarily what corresponds with Reality or Facts.
(B) HELP is a vague term, lacking in specificity.
Example: One could argue coherently that
Killing people and Stealing their wallets is a Help for someone.
Spreading slander about people who are innocent is a Help for someone.
Placing Poison in a water system, thereby reducing the population, is a Help for someone.
Heroine can be claimed to Help some persons who rely upon it.
Such persons usually resort to criminal behavior such as stealing or prostitution to support the habit.
Can these be shown to be a Help to mankind?
So I do not think the HELP argument will suffice as reasonable.
Your question was an inquiry as to whether smoking is "bad".
To prove that Smoking is a Help, you might need to adance your ideas so as to show that something that is Carcinogenic, and associated with more than one bodily disease, is rationally regarded as HELP for those who smoke.
Your remark as to a Help, did not address the issue of the Addictiveness of Nicotene, which passes the "blood barrier" and goes directly to the brain.
I've been to Turkey 4 time. I've heard this word there, i mean "nargile". Also, my friends from Azerbaijan and Turkmenistan usually use this word.

Quoted from Lisalea May I ask if u're a B- Henriette ? I was under the impression that Explorer's were B- nonnies Thanks
Quoted from Henriette Bsec I´m a B rh - but a secretor... I might a weak secretor I don´t know.and my ringfingers a 0.5 cm longer than my index fingers.... so
Quoted from Lisalea Thanks Henriette Think positive, u're NOT a weak secretor and hopefully u're happy about being an Explorer
Quoted from Henriette Bsec Yeah I´m getting more and more happy about it...
Quoted from Poly I just measured DH up - he's an Explorer! And about us not being the same type! Typical! Heh - and I can already hear the questions and the whining: "Why can't I have that anymore?" "Why is it changing again?" "Can I have that?" "Why?"Well, I guess this Gatherer has to Explore the food-lists!
Quoted from Henriette Bsec Maybe also almondmilk since some of the other types have a separate rating for almondmilk to almonds.
Quoted from SquarePeg Almonds and Almond butter are both avoids. I doubt that almond milk is neutral just because it wasn't listed. I'm assuming it was an oversight that it wasn't listed..
Quoted from SquarePeg So, everyone, I'm curious, do you think that Explorer fits you? Aren't there aspects of the other types that also fit you?
Quoted from zola Wow. Feeling kinda isolated here. Terminally unique? I only see 3 type A Explorers here. There was a small group of Type A nonsecretors before. Are we all related (joke)?
Quoted from zola Are there any other A, Rh neg, non secreting Explorers out there?

Latest Reviews & Awards
Simflight.de just completed it's reviews of the A318/A319 and found: "Aber wie gesagt, das Internet weià Rat, was das Handbuch angeht â und für den im Vergleich zu PMDG guten Preis ist das ein tolles Produkt. ... Ich kann mir aktuell nicht vorstellen, wie ein irgendwann am Horizont erscheinender Airbus von FS-Labs die Airbus-Simulation noch verbessern soll". Read the review here.
ASN reviewed Mega Airport Heathrow Xtended. Clearly it has to be a fine product as they conclude: "There is no doubt that Heathrow Xtended is by far the best Heathrow version currently available and I do not think anyone will make a better one until we get a 64 bit flight simulation on which to use it, and that is not going to happen for a while. So hearty congratulations to the Sim-Wings team - I think that they have made a winner! ". Read the review here.
Awards, we love them! Certainly if they come from Mutleys Hangar because the reviews there are always to the point and detailed. So when we got a an 'Outstanding' rating (9.7 our of 10) and a gold award for the Lightning F3 we celebrated by breaking the sound barrier a few times. The conclusion" "Like the real world 'Lightning', this add-on is not for the faint hearted. It wouldnât be very good if it was. If you are new to flight simulators, then make this product a goal. Fly something more forgiving first and work your way up to the 'Lightning' F.3, and when you are ready, then go and buy it. If you are an experienced virtual pilot, then lucky you, you are in for a treat!. Read the review here.
Very interesting review of Mega Airport Heathrow Xtended. I love the way it goes into details on VAS etc (spoiler: no problems there). Conclusion: Heathrow is an exciting airport and will always be relevant in aviation. With so much to see and do, itâll make for a perfect hub for so many people. Aerosoft have done an excellent job at creating a well-balanced and fantastic looking scenery. Itâs fairly priced and blends in well with other popular add-ons. Despite some issues with texture loading and a lack of snowy textures during winter, thereâs very little stopping me from saying this is a near perfect example of how a large scale airport should be done..

Mega Airport Heathrow Xtended just got it's first award from simFlight. Read the (German) review here.
ASN reviewed Mega Airport Dublin. They like it! "That being said, I would still have to say, overall, this airport is very much worth the price and if the developer continues to update and improve the deficiencies, it has a chance to be truly one of the greats. In its current form, it's a good add-on which just needs a little more work to really shine. If some of these issues are addressed, it most certainly will. Out of a possible score of 5, I'm giving this airport a solid 4." Read the review here.
iFlySimX reviewed Mega Airport Berlin Brandenburg with many many pictures!. They conclude: "Itâs hard not to recommend Dublin, especially with all the attention to detail put into the airport.. Read the review

It does not only include the airport but also includes all the important buildings of the city itself.
The very first aircraft that could supercruise (fly supersonic without after-burners) was the English Electric Lightning. This Cold War interceptor, designed to intercept the Russian Badger and Bear bombers and filled with state of the art technology of the early 1960s, protected NATO skies for two decades. Its fast, it climbs like a bat out of hell and needs a serious pilot. If you like your aircraft complex this is one you should not miss!

Kim TE et al. – Cisplatin–based CCRT is well–tolerated. Good clinical response revealed a favorable correlation to survival. A maximal effort to achieve this goal might prolong survival in patients with cervical cancer.
Methods- The medical records of 174 patients with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage IB1–IVA who were treated at three affiliated hospitals of the Catholic University of Korea between January 1999 and December 2008 were reviewed and analyzed.
- Patients received pelvic radiotherapy with one of three regimens of cisplatin–based chemotherapy concurrently and high–dose rate brachytherapy.
- The radiation field was extended to include para–aortic lymph nodes, if necessary.
- The median follow–up period was 29.5 months (range, 5–96 months).
- Using multivariate analysis, stage (P = 0.014), tumor size (P = 0.043), and clinical response (P = 0.001) had a significant effect on overall survival.
- Similarly, progression–free survival (PFS) was influenced by stage (P = 0.004), tumor size (P = 0.02), clinical response (P = 0.011), and normalized squamous cell carcinoma antigen level after CCRT (P = 0.007).
- The 5–year survival rates were 91.7% (standard error, 5.8%) for stages IB1–IIA, 71.5% (standard error, 7.8%) for stage IIB, 44.9% (standard error, 7.8%) for stage III, and 20.9% (standard error, 12.0%) for stage IVA.
- A total of 151 out of 174 patients (86.8%) completed the planned treatment.
- Toxicities were manageable with supportive therapy.

Love this. Smells SO GOOD! it works much better than the johnsons one. You can see results in a day or two of using it. However I don't like the fact there are potentially harmful chemicals in it. e.g parabens! also contains dimethicone which i'm not fond of
WOW! I have those really scary glow in the dark white legs, and I honestly don't tan at all (but with skin cancer, who wants the risk?). Anyway, I think this product is amazing. After about 2 days, I had natural looking color aside from my ankles and one knee. But, I figured out the way to do it is to wait until you have blended all over everywhere else and with the excess product, skim it over those trouble spots. I didn't notice a bad smell, and I will continue to use this. I read that there is a pump version, and that will be the one I buy next just because it will be a little easier to get out of the bottle. I would tell anyone to get this. My mom bought the one for medium to dark, and she's hooked also.
Best smelling gradual tanner. Only problem is the cream is very thick, which means it's hard to get the last of it out the container, also takes more time to apply then thinner lotions.
The tan the medium/fair gives is OK, similar to others.
I have used the summer glow in place of my usual choice garnier summer body & I have to say I quite like it.
The colour turns out ok,not to light or dark....just a nice deep golden shade.
The only qualms I have about this is that it feels very tacky once its been applied to the skin even if you've blended it really well it still has that clammy feel which I dont like!
I apply it in the evening about 2 hours before I go to sleep so I dont have to put up with the 'feel' of it on me all day.
I am happy with the colour it gives me,although I did apply it more at one time over a good 7 days & I thought It made me look a bit 'orange' so I tend to use it now for just a few days then moisturise 2 times a day in between with my normal body lotion & the tan lasts me a good several days before I need to exfoliate & start again!
Overall this is a nice product,the scent is quite nice peachy-floraly kind of smell & it has a good texture not too thick or runny.
The bottle it comes in could have been designed a bit easier,like the pump version which I will definately buy next time in the 'energy glow'.
The lotion can be rather tricky to get out of the bottle when it becomes half full......so I tend to leave the bottle upside down so I dont have to 'shake' the lotion to the top of the bottle every time I use it.
Product fades evenly & have had no problems with patchiness.Would recommend the dove summer glow definately!
More reviews by LittleBlackDog
This is awesome, even for winter. You can control your colour to still have nice glowing skin in wintery months but also to go deeper [as convincingly deep as you should look with the shade of skin you have] It has a nice smell, the cream isn't too sloppy and the outcome is subtle, so you can work on it daily like a regular suntan and no one would suspect straight up. The upkeep is pretty simple, you don't need to use it daily, I use it every few days to maintain a nice glow. A bonus, when you shower the following morning, your skin really does feel silky and smooth. No streaks and no 'colour run' like right after a spray tan! I loved this so much I bought the big pump bottle.
It's a pretty good product. Wouldn't be so happy with it that I wouldn't try another brand but am happy enough with the results. They are slow though and the cream is a bit heavy but I love the smell.
LOVE this product! Strangely I apply it in the evening so it absorbs well under my PJ's and I don't get any rub marks from clothes. I love the result - it looks very natural on my pale, freckled complexion. Having had some 'you've been tangoed' moments with regular self-tanners in the past I'd say this is virtually fool proof, although you do have to exfoliate regularly around knees, heels and elbows to keep the look convincing. It has a pleasant smell which doesn't morph into 'stale curry' as it develops. I agree the lotion is very rich and you do need to massage well into the skin but it does leave it feeling beautifully soft - worth the effort for the results. As my tan progressed and I got the depth of colour I liked I switched to the 'Medium' version and applied less frequently. When I stopped using this the colour faded evenly too. The only other lotion I use apart from this is L'Oreal Nutrisummer - but that's another review. Would definately recommend to everyone who wants a convincing tan without resorting to cancerous tanning booths. A definate 5 lippies!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
One of the worse 'moisturiser with self tan' products I've tried. The consistency is too thick to give an even tan - it turns out a yellowy and very patchy on me. Garnier Summer Body is the best one I've tried so far.
For some silly reason i thought i had to put the lotion on before i hit the sun...haha, but no just put it on anytime and by the next day you'll see some changes. I rather like it, it's just like applying normal moisturiser on, but with a heavier smell - which isn't too bad smells bit like those palma coca products. I read in some reviews that they had to wait ages for it to dry before putting clothes on...? mine dried within secs...so i guess it depends on how much you rub in. If you're constantly using it everyday you don't have to apply as much. The only downfall is that if you're lazy like me and only apply it every now and agian you loose the colour fast. And you also need to apply it evenly coz it does give you a few streakings here and there.
I liked this product and I find it way easier to use this than any of the other fake tans products. The smell is ok but could be better but I don't agree with a comment that somebody else left. It doesn't rub it easily! You apply it and you have to leave your trousers off for at least 20 minutes so you don't smudge it all or get it all over your trousers (i made this mistake and it stained all on the inside of my jeans!) Another problem aswel is that when it says that as soon as you have applied it all you have to wash your hands, well be careful! I carelessly turned the tap on full blast and water sprayed a little over my thighs and the next morning woke up with beautifully hinted tanned legs until i got to my thighs where it had ran down with white! I looked like i had weird white veins! Overall it is easy to use, cheap in price and does last a while and as long as your careful its fine. I'll be buying it again!

Guadalupe Mountains National Park AQRV's
Most surface waters in Guadalupe Mountains NP are likely to be well-buffered and, as a result, insensitive to acidic atmospheric deposition because of an abundance of base cations in underlying park soils and rocks. However, studies currently underway have identified certain soils in the park that appear to be very sensitive to acidification; small potholes or other waterbodies on these soils may also be vulnerable to acidification. Small potholes may also be sensitive to nutrient enrichment from nitrogen deposition. Nitrogen enrichment may result in algae blooms and oxygen depletion, but no studies have been done to study these potential effects in the park.
While there have been no systematic studies, there is currently no information indicating that wildlife in Guadalupe Mountains NP are being affected by air pollutants.
Night Skies
Dark night skies are considered an important air quality related value at Guadalupe Mountains NP, possessing value as a cultural, scenic, natural, and scientific resource. Air pollution and poor quality outdoor lighting degrade night skies, lessening a viewer's ability to see stars and other astronomical objects, and altering the nocturnal scene. Use of high quality lighting that produces very little scattered light can greatly improve the night sky. Reduction of haze from air pollution can also improve the night sky.
Soils in Guadalupe Mountains NP may be sensitive to atmospheric deposition of nitrogen compounds. In some areas of the country, elevated nitrogen deposition has been shown to alter soil nutrient cycling. Studies are underway in Big Bend NP in Texas to investigate nitrogen effects on soil dynamics, activities and biodiversity of the soil bacteria and fungi, and plant diversity. Results from these studies may be applicable to Guadalupe Mountains NP.
Several plant species that occur in Guadalupe Mountains NP, including Pinus ponderosa (ponderosa pine) and Rhus trilobata (skunkbush), are known to be sensitive to atmospheric ozone. Surveys have not been done in the park to evaluate ozone injury. Vegetation in Guadalupe Mountains NP may also be sensitive to nitrogen deposition. In some parts of the country, excess nitrogen deposition has resulted in changes in species composition and abundance; native plants adapted to nitrogen-poor conditions have been replaced by invasive and exotic species that are better able to utilize nitrogen. Studies are underway in Big Bend NP, also in Texas, to investigate the effects of excess nitrogen on plant diversity. These studies may be applicable to plant communities in Guadalupe Mountains NP.

Cover Story: Materials and Components Forecast Coming Out of the Trough
David Simpson, contributing editor
With economies improving, savings from lower commodity prices may be a thing of the past.
PolyOne's material solutions for the appliance industry include Geon FX Metal, a metallic vinyl compound for consoles and other appearance parts, as well as OnForce LFT, a long-glass-fiber compound for structural parts such as this washing machine spindle.
What a difference a year makes. Late in 2008 and early in 2009, demand for many metals and other commodities plummeted as economies around the world suffered a sharp downturn. Although commodity suppliers reduced output, prices often followed demand. For downstream users, including the appliance industry and its suppliers, lower commodity prices at least offered some potential cost savings during tough times.
Many companies benefited. For instance, Electrolux (Stockholm) reported margins of over 8% in 2009's third quarter. Says Hans Stråberg, president and CEO, a "cyclical trough in commodity prices and maintained prices have been decisive for our earnings improvement. Other contributing factors are a better product mix and significant cost reductions."
Unfortunately, the cyclical relief appears to have been short-lived. The world economy, while not exactly thriving, is showing signs of life. In anticipation of better economic output, many commodity prices as well as oil and natural gas have been bid up to levels well above their recent lows. There is a question about whether these prices are sustainable in the short term. Longer-term, more-vigorous economic output is likely to make rock-bottom commodity prices a thing of the past.
Steel production in developed countries was especially hard hit by the recession. In the European Union, estimated 2009 apparent steel usage was down 32.6%, after 2008 was down 8.2%. In October, the World Steel Association forecast apparent steel usage in 2010 would be up 12.4%. The NAFTA region (U.S., Canada, Mexico) had similar numbers. On the other hand, China's apparent steel use in 2009 was expected to increase by 18.8%, thanks in part to government stimulus. China is estimated to be responsible for 47.7% of world steel apparent use.
In an October Ferrous Round-Table meeting in Amsterdam, Holland, the Bureau of International Recycling discussed the strength and sustainability of the economic upturn. According to guest speaker Thomas Ludwig, PhD, CEO of German steel distributor Klöckner & Co. SE, the real demand for steel has shown no signs of a major recovery and could remain at low levels for some time. Without a rapid improvement in real demand, steel prices are likely to remain highly volatile in coming years, he said.
Highlighting China as "the wildcard" in his industry outlook, he argued that fears of the country becoming a major steel exporter are unfounded. He also suggested that the worst of the global crisis "is behind us" and that the long de-stocking phase in the steel sector is at an end.
One turning point may have been reached in North America. According to the Metal Service Center Institute, U.S. centers' steel inventories peaked at 11 million tons in August 2008 and did not rise again until September 2009, when they rose to 5.79 million tons. However, that figure is still 45.7% lower than a year ago. September steel shipments from U.S. centers were down 31.4% from the previous year, indicating a long way to full recovery.
Surcharges can add considerably to the cost of steel. For some common types of stainless steel, nickel has been a major source of surcharges. But nickel prices, which were over $50,000 a metric ton on the London Metal Exchange (LME) in mid-2007, had dipped below $10,000 as recently as last April. They had recovered to over $17,000 in November. LME futures prices out through 27 months indicate a similar level.
Copper has been another metal with a recent volatile history. LME prices reached around $9000 a metric ton in mid-2008, putting at risk copper gutters on homes and churches. The recession pushed copper below $3000 toward the end of 2008. It had recovered to around $6500 in November, despite large global inventories. LME futures indicate a level between $6000 and $7000 through the following 27 months.
Aluminum sheet pricing has stabilized after a dramatic decline in late 2008 when the base metal price dropped along with other commodity products. "In North America, the mill picture continues to be affected by industry rationalization and consolidation," says J. Michael Murphy, sales and marketing manager, industrial products, Alcoa North American Rolled Products (Lancaster, PA, U.S.; www.alcoa.com). "Alcoa idled its rolling mill in Texarkana, TX, in May of 2009 and all North American rolling mills are currently operating at reduced capacity, with a reluctance to 'crew up' to higher capacities until there is solid evidence of an economic recovery. In addition, we see less import metal into North America as the weakened U.S. dollar makes selling here less attractive.
"Today there is not nearly as much industry rolling capacity as a few years ago," says Murphy. "This has resulted in relative conversion price stability, even as demand for many aluminum sheet metal products has been down more than 30% in 2009, according to the Aluminum Association. While Alcoa does not provide formal pricing guidance, for the next year most industry analysts agree that LME prices have likely bottomed out. As far as North American mills, there is adequate industry capacity, barring further closings. However, the real issue in 2010 is whether mills will see enough sustained demand improvement to add additional crews."
Die casting makes use of aluminum, zinc, magnesium, and some copper. "Material pricing for die castings is coming off a historical low (2008–2009) and rising at a greater rate than the overall economy," says Daniel Twarog, president, North American Die Casting Association (www.diecasting.org). "The demand for material and die castings has been increasing at a greater rate in Asia than in Europe or the U.S. In this past year, there has been a surplus of material and die casting capacity, despite the significant contraction of the industry over the past 18 months. Demand has been weak. This has kept die casting prices low.
"In the fourth quarter of 2010, there will be an increase in demand for material and die castings. Some estimates put the demand up by 10% over the previous quarter. Die casting prices will start to rise by the third quarter of 2010 as demand will outpace supply. All during this period, material prices will increase. Material price increases are expected to continue through 2010."
Powder metallurgy uses a variety of metals such as iron, steel, and copper. "Part pricing is heavily affected by scrap pricing," points out Jim Dale, vice president, member and industry relations, Metal Powder Industries Federation (www.mpif.org). "Recently the scrap market has been down, but it has been up and down a lot in the last three to four years. Our members have had to price their parts accordingly. Powder and part availability is not an issue, due to the state of the economy, especially the automotive sector."
Into 2008, plastics pricing had been on an upward trajectory for several years, and availability of some materials was spotty. Oil and natural gas, used as feedstocks for chemicals and in processing and transporting the materials, hit high levels in 2008. Some pricing pressure came off with the onset of the recession and the relative oil and gas cost declines.
Looking at engineering plastics, demand in the last year was down as much as 50% in the automotive market and 15–20% in the consumer industrial market, reports Gavin Jewell, sector development leader, BASF Engineering Plastics (Wyandotte, MI, U.S.; www.basf.com). "This falling demand was matched by a throttling back in production by plastic manufacturers in order to take fixed cost out of their operations and to avoid excessive inventories.
"With sales on appliances down 15–20% over the last year, sales on existing programs were affected accordingly. That said, we were able to make up a fair amount of this volume through new program closes. This came mostly through continued replacement of thermoset parts and painted metal assemblies with engineering thermoplastics, especially on ranges and ovens. This was driven by appliance manufacturers' even stronger desire for cost reduction during these times. In the fourth quarter, orders on existing appliance programs began to pick up due to depletion of excess inventories and a slight increase in consumer demand."
Jewell said the industry saw some pullback on plastic feedstocks at the end of 2008, but most resumed an upward trend in 2009 despite the U.S. downturn. "This was due mainly to continued strong demand out of Asia," he explains. "Oil has increased steadily since January and is back to $80 per barrel as of November. The futures market is showing a slower but continual climb to $85 per barrel by November 2010. Natural gas, another main precursor and energy source for plastics production, in November is at $3.77 per mBtu with futures showing an increase to $5.76 per mBtu by November 2010.
"Going forward, as demand picks up, producers will readjust their output to keep up," Jewell adds. "During this readjustment phase, manufacturers may see some longer lead times, especially on specialty grades."
Glass prices have stabilized after a shortage in the summer and fall of 2008, reports Mark Delp, executive vice president of Schott Gemtron (Sweetwater, TN, U.S.; www.gemtron.net). Surcharges associated with natural gas and diesel fuel continue to fluctuate up and down on a quarterly basis.
"I have concerns that raw glass prices could rise and supply will decrease as there are a significant amount of North American furnaces that may need to be rebuilt in the next two years," he adds. "Glass manufacturers could decide not to reinvest in these furnaces at this time. If this happens, it will cut into available supply, creating supply shortages and rising prices. It is an option to import from China, but the added logistics costs to land the product in North America have kept this option from being competitive."
Since 2003, glass production in China has increased by more than $576 million—over 67%—according to a study by Dr. Usha Haley of Harvard University in Through the Chinese Looking Glass: Subsidies to China's Glass Industry from 2004–08.
The Alliance for American Manufacturing (AAM) is urging the Obama Administration to address Chinese government subsidies to its domestic glass industry. In a letter to the administration, it states, "Our domestic glass industry is the most efficient in the world, but it cannot compete against production that is heavily subsidized by the Chinese government." The AAM adds that the global overcapacity of glass products created by the explosive growth in Chinese production has led to U.S. "plant closing and thousands of lost jobs."
The North American market for glass-ceramics used in cooking surfaces was down 12–15% in 2009, more than double the drop forecast a year ago, says Carlos Mendia, director of sales and marketing at Schott HomeTech North America Inc. (Louisville, KY, U.S.; www.schott.com). "Like other companies, we have adjusted our capacity to meet the reduced demand, and the last 18 to 24 months we have been working to lower our fixed costs. From talking to our customers, it sounds likely the market will stabilize in the next year. As far as material costs, they retreated for a while but are inching up again. We aren't anticipating any pricing adjustments in 2010."
Powder coatings, which have an estimated 15% of the North American industrial coatings market, were not immune to the downturn. The impact was especially hard in the automotive and appliance areas. "For powder suppliers, the recession compounded a market in which there was probably a 50% oversupply of powder," says Steve Houston, Powder Coating Institute (www.powdercoating.org) executive director. "There has been a low barrier to entry for powder producers. As a result, while there were 25 producers in the 1980s, today there are around 70, despite some consolidation."
The average powder selling price began dropping year over year, mostly due to competition, starting in 2000 and continuing until 2005–06. "At that point there began a huge influx of raw material increases, which drove powder costs higher," Houston says. "In 2008 there began to be some flattening, especially because of lower petroleum costs. I expect we will see pricing down potentially as high as 1–2% in 2010, even further undervaluing powder coating technology in the industrial marketplace."
Despite the recession, observes Brad Devine, sales and marketing manager, Ferro Corp., Industrial Coatings Group, Porcelain Enamel Division (Cleveland, OH, U.S.; www.ferro.com), "Raw materials used for porcelain enamel coating products increased over 20% in late 2008 and early 2009 (excluding cobalt and nickel) and have since leveled off in the second half of 2009. In spite of actively purchasing raw materials on a worldwide basis, Ferro has experienced significant cost increases since late 2008 for borate, phosphate, potassium, soda, fluorine, zircon, manganese, nitrates, nitrites, silica, feldspar, and many other raw materials critical to the production of porcelain enamel coatings. Several of these raw materials increased 100% or more. The cost benefit many industries experienced during 2009 from the decreased cost of oil-based products (paint, plastic, etc.) has not significantly affected porcelain enamel costs as they are mainly produced from inorganic raw materials not closely tied to the price of oil.
"On a positive note," he adds, "the costs for important components of porcelain enamel, cobalt and nickel, have decreased significantly this year, mainly due to the poor economic conditions. The cost savings were immediately passed along to customers via the monthly metals surcharge that has been in effect for several years.
"We are currently projecting an overall raw material increase of 8–12% for 2010," he predicts. "As usual, metals pricing can be highly volatile depending on economic conditions and other market factors. By controlling internal costs, Ferro was able to delay a planned September 1 price increase, but I expect a 4–8% price increase to be necessary by the first quarter of 2010 due to these raw material cost increases. Nickel and cobalt metal surcharges already in effect will continue as long as these markets remain highly volatile. We continue to control our own internal costs by investing in process and equipment improvements to increase productivity."
Indeed, internal costs and productivity have also been a focus with appliance producers. For instance, besides Electrolux, mentioned above, Whirlpool Corp. (Benton Harbor, MI, U.S.) notes that its 8% third-quarter profit improvement compared with third quarter 2008 was impacted by "cost reduction and productivity initiatives." In an environment in which commodity prices appear to be volatile and unpredictable, it may be a very smart move to continue to keep focused on the costs you can control.
Waring recently switched to Eastman's Tritan copolyester for its commercial-grade blenders because of its toughness, dishwasher durability, and clarity. The commercial blenders have 48- or 64-oz blender jars made with the copolyester material.
Components Forecast: Small Motors
The growing medical sector, which accounts for 19% of the small motors market, will help drive a recovery to pre-recession levels of activity by early 2012, according to an IMS Research report titled World Market for Small Motors. That's an impressively quick recovery, coming after an estimated 23% contraction of small motor unit shipments worldwide for 2009.
IMS notes that the previous downturn took place toward the end of 2001, with the market dropping an estimated 6% in Europe, and resulted in several acquisitions in the following years. The acquisitions allowed the motor makers to gain access to regional markets and complementary technologies while boosting market shares. IMS points out that the current recovery could signal the start of another round of acquisitions in the small motor industry.
Components Forecast: Flat-Panel Displays
Although the TFT LCD market started to recover in Q2 2009, the erosion in large-area TFT LCD panel prices helped reduce 2009 global flat-panel display revenues for 2009 to $87.6 billion, down 15% from 2008, according to DisplaySearch's Quarterly Worldwide FPD Forecast Report. The report forecasts the market to recover in 2010 with a 5% compound annual growth rate and revenues of $93.3 billion.
Stainless steel has found a strong market in kitchen appliances. Stainless steels are distinguished from carbon steel by their content of chromium and, in certain cases, nickel. Adding chromium to carbon steel makes it more resistant to rust and stain, and adding nickel to chromium stainless steel enhances the mechanical properties of the steel.

Components Forecast: Solar Cells
End-market demand for photovoltaic (PV) cells fell for the first time 2009 (by 14%) and marked the industry's first "Solar Cycle," according to the DisplaySearch Q4 2009 Quarterly PV Cell Capacity Database & Trends Report. Changes in Spain's incentive policy as well as the worldwide economic crisis and tight credit markets caused the contraction. Excess capacity helped push average PV system prices down more than 25%. DisplaySearch says these lower prices, diversification of the demand base, and incentive movements will drive substantially higher demand in 2010.
"However, because the PV industry is so broad-based and diverse, many of the leading producers have already returned to profitability and are running factories at high utilization and moving forward with expansion plans," said Charles Annis, DisplaySearch vice president of manufacturing research, in a December 7, 2009 statement. "Demand in the second half of 2009 is proving to be robust and setting the stage for 38% growth next year (2010)."
SABIC Innovative Plastics (Pittsfield, MA, U.S.) has launched Lexan polycarbonate HFD specialty copolymer resins, a material innovation that gives customers high melt flow without traditional decreases in toughness; and improved ductility without impacting melt flow. Plastics suppliers continue to develop new properties with the hope of expanding their materials' markets.
Components Forecast: Printed Circuit Boards
North American PCB production is forecast to resume growth in 2010 according to trade association IPC. Reporting on results from four recent studies, IPC estimated world PCB production declining in 2009 by 20% to $40.6 billion worldwide. North American production was expected to be about 15% below 2008, but will start climbing again in 2010.
Components Forecast: Semiconductors
The Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) forecasts global semiconductor sales to be $219.7 billion for 2009, down 11.6% from $248.6 billion in 2008. Sales are forecast to grow 10.2% to $242.1 billion in 2010 and 8.4% to $262.3 billion in 2011.
"The new forecast is brighter than our earlier projections, reflecting an improving global economy," said SIA president George Scalise. "Unit sales of key demand drivers—including PCs and cell phones, which together account for about 60% of semiconductor demand—have been stronger than previously predicted. We remain cautiously optimistic for the longer term. The current forecast is closely tied to projections of continuing improvement in the worldwide economy."

The Corporativo Empresarial de Oficinas in Santa Fe by Arditti + RDT Arquitectos is an avant-garde design, deliberately pushing the boundaries of commercial building design. Within this bold and ambitious project, the Mexico-based practice sought to achieve maximum efficiency, functionality and safety, environmental awareness and the incorporation of state-of-the-art technology, using a range of high quality materials.
The tinted-glass tower covers over 538,000 sq ft of space, with 16 storeys of core services and communal meeting rooms linked by broad staircases and multiple elevators. A mezzanine floor hosts private meeting rooms and business care for the general public, while a grand lobby welcomes visitors from two levels of access from the street. Six levels of underground parking and a helipad on the roof enhance access to the facility.
Arditti + RDT Arquitectos based its design on a basic plant form, with many functional aspects 'tucked up' under the building, forming an integration of terraces and projecting elements which create an array of shaded spaces at the base of the structure. The form of the building harnesses the abundance of natural sunlight in Santa Fe, reducing energy demands and generating greater movement in the corporate facades.

Wind River Tinkers on Android for Kyocera
Kyocera Wireless Corporation (KWC) uses Android software for its own mobile platform. The embedded Linux firm Wind River has engaged itself as an integrator.
Wind River will be adapting Android for KWC, above all in terms of middleware and user interface. The California neighbors will also be sharing further technologies in their integration. With Android, Kyocera wants to be a step ahead of other device vendors, according to Wind River's announcement, with the partner companies attempting to bridge the communications market with the multimedia market.
Kyocera of Japan founded its KWC subsidiary in 2000 after it acquired Qualcomm. Like Qualcomm, KWC specializes in the Code-Division Multiple Access (CDMA) technology. CDMA uses a spread-spectrum technology allowing transmission of different data over the same frequency that is used, for example, in UMTS mobile phones. The Open Handset Alliance considers Wind River one of its commercialization partners. The alliance consists of 34 companies that include mobile service providers, mobile device vendors, and semiconductor and software firms and promotes commercialization of their products. This past February Wind River ported Android onto an NEC 3G chip.
Google's Android system for mobile platforms works on a Linux kernel and has only recently become Open Source. Google rededicated its erstwhile Gphone as Android back in November 2007.

This stuff works miracles on my undereye circles. Even if it didn't, I would still buy it for the light creaminess of this product. It absorbs fast without being heavy or sticky. I especially love the ridiculously low prices - 2/$15 when it's on sale.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is a very nice eye cream. I don't expect miracles, but this stuff does everything I want an eye cream to do. First of all, it's a nice hygenic container - a squeeze tube - so you can dispense exactly the amount you need. No discernable fragrance and doesn't irritate my eyes. It's not greasy at all, yet it moisturizes wonderfully. What more could you ask for in an eye cream?
This product didn't do anything for me, except waste my time with an extra step in my routine. I'm very disappointed and will not repurchase.
It looks great if you wear it by itself, but when i applied concealer over it, it made even the tiniest line appear! I am only 20, and it made me look like i had deep wrinkles, so if you wear it, wear it only on your no makeup days. I like it for use when i have black circles under my eyes, but i wear makeup alot, so i won't purchase this again. Maybe Avon should make a cream version, instead of this gel?
Okay product. Leaves my eye area very soft (which I like). It has lightend my undereye circles a little, as far as I can tell, but my husband said he doesn't notice a difference. I'll keep using until I find something much better.
After using this for a few months, I can tell that it has indeed lightened my undereye circles. Mine are genetic, and fairly dark, and I am aware that nothing will completely banish them. Given my realistic expectations, however, I find this to be the best treatment I've used for dark circles, even given its affordable price. It's also usually available for very cheap on eBay. I like that it is unscented. A word of warning, though: if your skin is particularly sensitive or dry, it will tingle or slightly sting a little as you are rubbing it in. It wasn't bothersome enough for me to discontinue, however. This product is a good, basic standby. Will repurchase.
i'm a 20 year old college student so the only reason i have undereye circles is because of a lack sleep. so, while i know they'll never completely go away, i figured i'd try it to at least help diminish my bags. when i first used it, it burned my eyes so bad i couldn't keep them open. i figured maybe i had accidentaly put some in my eyes, so i washed it off and figured i's try again. the next day the same thing happened, and i was extremely careful not to get it in my actual eyes. so, since i couldn't use it for a continued period of time, not only was i left with undereye circles, but i also had bloodshot, puffy eyes and that wouldn't stop watering...not a good look. i still reach for it every once in awhile just to see if it was maybe a fluke before, but no...the burning still continues. so, i'm not sure if it actually works with continued use, but i don't think burning eyes are worth finding out.
